Artomatic is a month-long multimedia arts event that draws together visual artists, musicians and performers and brings their work to the community without charge. It was originally conceived as a way to break down the geographical and social segmentation of the Washington arts scene, to bring art directly to the public and to build cohesion among artists. The city's ongoing development in recent years has diffused the arts community by breaking up pockets of artist studios. In addition, local artists are sometimes overshadowed by national blockbuster shows and federal landmarks. Artomatic provides a forum for all of our area's artists to convene, perform and exhibit, strengthening the visibility, cohesion, and marketplace of Washington's arts community.
Artomatic began in 1999 in the historic Manhattan Laundry building. A dozen or so artists originally toured the empty building and within a month, three hundred and fifty artists had cleaned, lit, painted and colonized the 100,000 square feet. Over 20,000 visitors attended the first Artomatic over 6 weeks. From there, it grew organically, as buildings were made available to Artomatic by community developers. Music and performance of all kinds were added. In 2000, 665 artists exhibited and 200 performed at the old Hechinger’s building; more than 1000 artists and performers took part in 2002 at the Southwest Waterfront and even more in 2004 at the old Capitol Children’s Museum in Northeast. The number of visitors has also more than doubled to over 40,000.
By artists, for artists
Artomatic is organic; there are no juries or curators. A Board of Directors comprised of local artists and supporters and a steering committee comprised of local artists, arts administrators, and community activists develops outreach procedures and participation guidelines to ensure the broadest possible artistic representation from the DC metropolitan area. Each participant pays a nominal fee and commits to volunteering for 15 hours. Most participants, however, give much more of their time; volunteers execute every task, from hauling trash and building exhibit structures to maintaining the website. As a result, the show draws artists and visitors of different races, cultural backgrounds, ages and experience levels.
Emerging and established artists have the chance to work with and learn from one another and the diversity of artwork and performances attract the broadest range of people, providing a forum to build institutional connections; linking public and private schools, universities, community development organizations, human service organizations, corporations, foundations, and cultural organizations. Artists, organizations, and visitors come together and illustrate the energy, vitality and strength of the arts to impact the community.
Majin Buu was one of the final villains introduced in the Dragonball Z series, and main reason for everyone powering up again. His most famous form in this arc is that of Innocent Buu, which is the pink blob.. which also appears to be his look when he's split up into Good Buu and Kid Buu.... anyway.
Despite his childlike appearance and behavior, he's one of the most horrific beings to ever exist (at that time, of course... everyone is always the worst thing ever when they're introduced), only held back as it were by some influence of a Grand Kai that was absorbed earlier in his existence. He's basically Kirby if he went rogue.
The character is of course represented in Figuarts form.
As the Dragonball releases general scale to each other, Buu is gigantic, not quite reaching Broly size, but pretty close, and dwarfs all of the other Z fighters. Being an extremely large figure, Buu is definitely more hollow as compared to his smaller peers, most notably in the body itself. Some of this is for the better, as that is where the guts of this articulation is hidden.
It's just unfortunate the younger generation will never know the joys of beating the shit out of your friends with 10 inch rubber WWF figures.
Buu comes with 3 heads, with I believe a bonus "Good Buu" head with the upcoming Kid Buu Figuarts. No stand and relatively few hands, but he does come with his trademark chocolate bar, which apparently if he's Innocent Buu is probably someone transformed into food, or if he's Good Buu it's literally a chocolate bar as he can't absorb people anymore.
All I know is he eats no matter where he goes.
In addition to the aforementioned, you will also notice he has his trademark purple cape, slightly poseable due to the segmentation. It's not as poseable as say, the Batman ones from Play Arts, but it also doesn't look anywhere as hideous so... winning?
Colours are nice and sharp, much like on Gotenks. I don't know how things are like on other Figuarts lines, but it does seem like Bandai has gotten their act together at least on the Dragonball stuff. Of course, given its premium status, it's kind of necessary.
Articulation is pretty good too. It's not quite Storm Collectibles Zangief good, but it's on part with Broly, meaning the only real thing missing is an upper chest joint. As mentioned, hollow cavities allow for joint placements that increase his range of movement. Of course, due to his size, the actual poses Buu can hold without additional support are kind of limited though I don't exactly recall him being a super limber kind of guy. A standard figure stand won't support him, so if you want to do any mid air posing, you're going to need to find something more robust, or get creative.
While they're all memorable characters, you got to admit in a line where more than half of them seem to basically be a bipedal humanoid with two arms that share the same workout routine, it's the aliens and other seemingly random characters that stick out on your shelves. Majin Buu is no exception - I think he makes a great accent piece in your Figuarts sized collection, regardless if its Dragonball or not.
Much like with Broly, Buu is large and in charge and is a great addition to your set, but I wouldn't go in expecting him to be a posing dynamo, which is usually the case with larger figures (except for Storm Zangief), though really I feel the only point missing would be an articulation point at the chest.
Prague City Gallery – Municipal Library (Městská knihovna)
The library building on Mariánské Square was built between 1925 and 1928. It was the first purpose-built library in the then Czechoslovakia as well as one of the most modern in Europe at the time. The exhibition space on the second floor is used by the Prague City Gallery. Its mission is focused primarily on presenting Czech modern art from the 19th and 20th centuries.
The oldest public library in Prague continued in the activity of the society libraries, and also some marginal villages had their own libraries. The first public library in Prague was opened on the 1st July 1891, being established by a decree of the municipal council as the Public Municipal Library of the Royal City of Prague. In the beginning, it had over 3000 books; its first address was in the building of the former St. Václav jail in the Na Zderaze Street. The library changed its address several times, until it finally settled at the corner of Platnéřská Street and the square Mariánské náměstí, where there used to be an Empire burgess house. The base of the modern-time library was set by its director back then, poet Antonín Sova, who also established the first six branches of the library. When 37 surrounding villages were included in Prague in 1922, which also gave rise to the so called Great Prague, also the libraries in these villages were united into one and a centralized Central Library of the Capital City of Prague was created with a network of 40 branches and this number kept growing. The library fund with approximately 260 thousand volumes was also increasing rapidly. The existing house was not suitable for the greater amounts of books. This problem was resolved by the Prague Municipal Insurance Company, which as early as in 1923 decided in a meeting of its board of directors to build a new separate building for the library needs and to donate it to the city of Prague on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the Czechoslovak State. Out of five renowned architects, František Roith was the one to win the competition opened for the new library project. Work on the extensive building site, which was over 60 m long into the Mariánské náměstí and nearly 70 m in the vertical direction, began in 1925. This was the first purpose-built library construction in Czechoslovakia and one of the most modern in Europe. The author not only designed the new building as a magnificent library with all the respective services, but also as a cultural institution with premises for lectures, concerts and exhibitions. The library was officially opened for public on the 28th October 1928.
A markedly traditionally designed building looks very suitable between the early-Baroque Clementinum and the Secession building of the New Prague Town Hall. The main front of the object unites modern temperance with Classicising segmentation. The corner parts with arcades extend into the pavement, and there is a monumental port with a balcony balustrade in the middle. On the balcony, there are 6 allegorical sculptures made by Ladislav Kofránek. The main facade, as well as the side tract, are lined by Slovak travertine. Also the interior is simple and strictly purposeful, even if a little more decorative. The monumental staircase and vestibule again use travertine, artificial stone and brass. Ornamental paintings on the ceiling of the central hall were realized by František Kysela. Even the furniture and equipment corresponded with the building’s simple and purposeful architecture. Today, the original equipment can only be seen the information centre and the theatre section.
Premises for puppet theatre were built in the underground, on the side in Žatecká Street. The theatre came here from Bubeneč. A model of the scene and auditorium was realized by sculptor and woodcarver Vojtěch Sucharda, who was the founder and the first director of the local Artistic Scene of the Puppet Land (Říše loutek).
About one fifth of the building is taken up by the residence of Prague’s chief magistrate on the first and on the second floor of the front tract, which is made up of the service flat, representative and reception lounges, an apartment for accommodating precious guests, and operational background. The residence has its own access from the corner of Platnéřská and Žatecká Street. The residence utterly leaves the idea of an overall restrained purposefulness. It is decorative, noble and cultured Art Deco style. František Kysela participated in the decorations and he realized the ceiling paintings and designed a large tapestry named Work, Science and Arts. Equipment and decorations of the chief magistrate’s residence were completed in 1930. However, the Prague chief magistrates never actually lived in the residence, perhaps with the only exception of Karel Baxa. It was, nevertheless, regularly used for accommodating official foreign visitors and for protocolar and representative purposes. In the years 1994 - 95 it went through a general reconstruction and the pieces of art were carefully restored.
Modernity and generosity of the Roith’s project of a library from the era of the first republic is documented by the fact that only in the end of the 1970s, the library no longer suited the needs of a modern information institute, both spatially and technologically. The city initiated a generous building reconstruction in the years 1996 - 98. All the lending and studying areas were connected during the reconstruction, and free selection of the library fund was increased. The surface area extended by 900 m2 thanks to placing ceilings on two atriums and to in-built galleries.

The use of 3D-printing in the development of a surgical training model for robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy
Generated from a CT scan of a patient who had kidney cancer, this project used image segmentation and 3D-modelling software combined with 3D-printing technology to develop and evaluate an anatomically accurate, low-cost surgical training model of a kidney with a tumour.
There is an increasing incidence of kidney cancer within the UK and where possible surgeons will use a procedure known as a partial nephrectomy to treat it. This procedure removes only the part of the kidney affected by the tumour, which is done to preserve as much post-operative kidney function as possible while still removing the cancer. This procedure is very technically challenging and can only be performed by a few very skilled surgeons. The implications of developing this model are that trainee surgeons could access a low-cost means of learning and continually developing the skills required to perform a robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy, which could ultimately generate a bigger pool of capable surgeons and thus widen access to the best available care for patients.

Lepidochitona cinerea. Lleuen y graig gribog, lleuen fôr gribog. Druidstone Haven. Ceir hyd iddynt o dan gerrig, yn glynnu wrth y graig, maent yn effro gyda’r nos. Yn wahanol i falwod eraill, mae'r gragen gydag wyth clawr yn gorchuddio'r cefn yn debyg i deils crib tô.

Lepidochitona cinerea. A chiton, or coat of mail shell. This species, cineraria, is known as the common grey chiton - from its species name cineraria = ashen , grey, however its colour varies... the Welsh name 'cribog' refers to the distinct ridge to the plates on the back. The Welsh name for these ancient molluscs is 'lleuen y graig' = rock louse. This is a primative mollusc, it has eight shells on its back... bivalves, gastropods and cephalopods are descended from creatures that looked like this. Higher organisms are descended from segmented worms... and you can see that segmentation clearly evident in this creature, an ancestor of the octopus.

(Solar Decathlon, University of Texas at Austin entry)
Set up as a competition between 20 university teams "to design, build, and operate the most attractive, effective, and energy-efficient solar-powered house," the event draws in massive crowds every two-years to the Mall. The ingenuity of the energy-efficient designs is rivaled only by the wonderful aesthetic considerations in the overall appearance of the homes. True to its European roots, the team from Germany presented a flat-roof home which obscured the solar panels in a sunken space on top. Trumping the rest of the competition and taking first place this year, the house uses a passive energy design that requires minimal energy to keep the atmosphere inside at a comfortable level.
The overall design of defined layers of the house reminds me of traditional Javanese houses that use a similar layer approach to control the temperature of the house from the heat of the tropics. By implementing a similar segmentation of space and a high ventilated roof at its core, these traditional houses maintained a comfortable constant temperature inside that could be controlled by louvered doors and windows.
More details about the winning house can be read here.
I saw some of Sarah-Jane Selwood's gorgeous ceramic work at a recent exhibition in Glasgow, and it was possibly my favourite stuff in the show, so it was nice to meet her in person...

His most famous form in this arc is that of Innocent Buu, which is the pink blob.. which also appears to be his look when he's split up into Good Buu and Kid Buu.... anyway.
Despite his childlike appearance and behavior, he's one of the most horrific beings to ever exist (at that time, of course... everyone is always the worst thing ever when they're introduced), only held back as it were by some influence of a Grand Kai that was absorbed earlier in his existence. He's basically Kirby if he went rogue.
The character is of course represented in Figuarts form.
As the Dragonball releases general scale to each other, Buu is gigantic, not quite reaching Broly size, but pretty close, and dwarfs all of the other Z fighters. Being an extremely large figure, Buu is definitely more hollow as compared to his smaller peers, most notably in the body itself. Some of this is for the better, as that is where the guts of this articulation is hidden.
It's just unfortunate the younger generation will never know the joys of beating the shit out of your friends with 10 inch rubber WWF figures.

No stand and relatively few hands, but he does come with his trademark chocolate bar, which apparently if he's Innocent Buu is probably someone transformed into food, or if he's Good Buu it's literally a chocolate bar as he can't absorb people anymore.

Better data is becoming available on economic activity within countries, often much exceeding the available information of economic activity across countries. This creates new research opportunities for testing economic theory, analyzing market structures and the sources of market segmentation, and making predictions of how economic shocks propagate across space. The aim of this conference is to bring together researchers from urban economics, industrial organization, health economics, and international trade to study production and trade within and across countries.

Majin Buu was one of the final villains introduced in the Dragonball Z series, and main reason for everyone powering up again. His most famous form in this arc is that of Innocent Buu, which is the pink blob.. which also appears to be his look when he's split up into Good Buu and Kid Buu.... anyway.
Despite his childlike appearance and behavior, he's one of the most horrific beings to ever exist (at that time, of course... everyone is always the worst thing ever when they're introduced), only held back as it were by some influence of a Grand Kai that was absorbed earlier in his existence. He's basically Kirby if he went rogue.
The character is of course represented in Figuarts form.
As the Dragonball releases general scale to each other, Buu is gigantic, not quite reaching Broly size, but pretty close, and dwarfs all of the other Z fighters. Being an extremely large figure, Buu is definitely more hollow as compared to his smaller peers, most notably in the body itself. Some of this is for the better, as that is where the guts of this articulation is hidden.
It's just unfortunate the younger generation will never know the joys of beating the shit out of your friends with 10 inch rubber WWF figures.
Buu comes with 3 heads, with I believe a bonus "Good Buu" head with the upcoming Kid Buu Figuarts. No stand and relatively few hands, but he does come with his trademark chocolate bar, which apparently if he's Innocent Buu is probably someone transformed into food, or if he's Good Buu it's literally a chocolate bar as he can't absorb people anymore.
All I know is he eats no matter where he goes.
In addition to the aforementioned, you will also notice he has his trademark purple cape, slightly poseable due to the segmentation. It's not as poseable as say, the Batman ones from Play Arts, but it also doesn't look anywhere as hideous so... winning?
Colours are nice and sharp, much like on Gotenks. I don't know how things are like on other Figuarts lines, but it does seem like Bandai has gotten their act together at least on the Dragonball stuff. Of course, given its premium status, it's kind of necessary.
Articulation is pretty good too. It's not quite Storm Collectibles Zangief good, but it's on part with Broly, meaning the only real thing missing is an upper chest joint. As mentioned, hollow cavities allow for joint placements that increase his range of movement. Of course, due to his size, the actual poses Buu can hold without additional support are kind of limited though I don't exactly recall him being a super limber kind of guy. A standard figure stand won't support him, so if you want to do any mid air posing, you're going to need to find something more robust, or get creative.
While they're all memorable characters, you got to admit in a line where more than half of them seem to basically be a bipedal humanoid with two arms that share the same workout routine, it's the aliens and other seemingly random characters that stick out on your shelves. Majin Buu is no exception - I think he makes a great accent piece in your Figuarts sized collection, regardless if its Dragonball or not.
Much like with Broly, Buu is large and in charge and is a great addition to your set, but I wouldn't go in expecting him to be a posing dynamo, which is usually the case with larger figures (except for Storm Zangief), though really I feel the only point missing would be an articulation point at the chest.
In terms of audience segmentation, production studios like Paramount Pictures have started producing Blockbuster hits as well as "films for more narrowly focused audiences" (200, Media Now). Many blockbuster movies hit the big screen, but more B listed movies are going straight to DVD, where avid fans are waiting for them. Audience segmentation is relatively new in the movie industry, but has been hugely successful in getting more topics out there to more audiences.

I went outside today and found a very long (over a meter in length) icicle hanging off of the roof of the outer genkan. I don't know what caused the segmentation of the ice...
Prague City Gallery – Municipal Library (Městská knihovna)
The library building on Mariánské Square was built between 1925 and 1928. It was the first purpose-built library in the then Czechoslovakia as well as one of the most modern in Europe at the time. The exhibition space on the second floor is used by the Prague City Gallery. Its mission is focused primarily on presenting Czech modern art from the 19th and 20th centuries.
The oldest public library in Prague continued in the activity of the society libraries, and also some marginal villages had their own libraries. The first public library in Prague was opened on the 1st July 1891, being established by a decree of the municipal council as the Public Municipal Library of the Royal City of Prague. In the beginning, it had over 3000 books; its first address was in the building of the former St. Václav jail in the Na Zderaze Street. The library changed its address several times, until it finally settled at the corner of Platnéřská Street and the square Mariánské náměstí, where there used to be an Empire burgess house. The base of the modern-time library was set by its director back then, poet Antonín Sova, who also established the first six branches of the library. When 37 surrounding villages were included in Prague in 1922, which also gave rise to the so called Great Prague, also the libraries in these villages were united into one and a centralized Central Library of the Capital City of Prague was created with a network of 40 branches and this number kept growing. The library fund with approximately 260 thousand volumes was also increasing rapidly. The existing house was not suitable for the greater amounts of books. This problem was resolved by the Prague Municipal Insurance Company, which as early as in 1923 decided in a meeting of its board of directors to build a new separate building for the library needs and to donate it to the city of Prague on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the Czechoslovak State. Out of five renowned architects, František Roith was the one to win the competition opened for the new library project. Work on the extensive building site, which was over 60 m long into the Mariánské náměstí and nearly 70 m in the vertical direction, began in 1925. This was the first purpose-built library construction in Czechoslovakia and one of the most modern in Europe. The author not only designed the new building as a magnificent library with all the respective services, but also as a cultural institution with premises for lectures, concerts and exhibitions. The library was officially opened for public on the 28th October 1928.
A markedly traditionally designed building looks very suitable between the early-Baroque Clementinum and the Secession building of the New Prague Town Hall. The main front of the object unites modern temperance with Classicising segmentation. The corner parts with arcades extend into the pavement, and there is a monumental port with a balcony balustrade in the middle. On the balcony, there are 6 allegorical sculptures made by Ladislav Kofránek. The main facade, as well as the side tract, are lined by Slovak travertine. Also the interior is simple and strictly purposeful, even if a little more decorative. The monumental staircase and vestibule again use travertine, artificial stone and brass. Ornamental paintings on the ceiling of the central hall were realized by František Kysela. Even the furniture and equipment corresponded with the building’s simple and purposeful architecture. Today, the original equipment can only be seen the information centre and the theatre section.
Premises for puppet theatre were built in the underground, on the side in Žatecká Street. The theatre came here from Bubeneč. A model of the scene and auditorium was realized by sculptor and woodcarver Vojtěch Sucharda, who was the founder and the first director of the local Artistic Scene of the Puppet Land (Říše loutek).
About one fifth of the building is taken up by the residence of Prague’s chief magistrate on the first and on the second floor of the front tract, which is made up of the service flat, representative and reception lounges, an apartment for accommodating precious guests, and operational background. The residence has its own access from the corner of Platnéřská and Žatecká Street. The residence utterly leaves the idea of an overall restrained purposefulness. It is decorative, noble and cultured Art Deco style. František Kysela participated in the decorations and he realized the ceiling paintings and designed a large tapestry named Work, Science and Arts. Equipment and decorations of the chief magistrate’s residence were completed in 1930. However, the Prague chief magistrates never actually lived in the residence, perhaps with the only exception of Karel Baxa. It was, nevertheless, regularly used for accommodating official foreign visitors and for protocolar and representative purposes. In the years 1994 - 95 it went through a general reconstruction and the pieces of art were carefully restored.
Modernity and generosity of the Roith’s project of a library from the era of the first republic is documented by the fact that only in the end of the 1970s, the library no longer suited the needs of a modern information institute, both spatially and technologically. The city initiated a generous building reconstruction in the years 1996 - 98. All the lending and studying areas were connected during the reconstruction, and free selection of the library fund was increased. The surface area extended by 900 m2 thanks to placing ceilings on two atriums and to in-built galleries.
