Chechnya is not Czech Republic, people.

When I woke up this morning and read Twitter, and the whole, "The perpetuator is from Czech Republic, he's Chechen!" I imagined a close-up of my AP high school microeconomics professor's bewildered face as he drank some of his homemade 'Czech' beer he always spoke about.

We Live in an American World

1) Boston bombings.
2) Ricin letters to Obama.
3) Gun control bill voted down.
4) Explosion in Waco.

"If one is to believe the world's websites and TV news, so are the four events week's most important events, and it emphasizes as clearly as ever that we live in an American media world."

"Last week, North Korea was a threat to world peace, and a North Korean nuclear attack on Tokyo and Guam was imminent, this week, North Korea is less of a threat than horse meat because media reality in the United States ignores North Korea."

"Monday 61 dead in bomb attacks in Iraq on Wednesday died 52 at government attacks in Syria and China confirmed yesterday that bird flu could spread from human-to-human."

I think what happened in Boston is truly horrific, and I feel so verys... more »

New Polygon Modes
Ogitor now supports 4 camera polygon modes:

TEXTURED
SHADED
HIDDEN_LINE
WIREFRAME

Instead of the 3 'normal' polygon modes: solid, wireframe and points.

I mean: who uses points, ever?

Angelscript and Terrain

Finally, after 1.5 years, Angelscript and Ogitor now works on 64-bit platforms!

We are binding Ogre::Vector3 and it's friends, and they are passed by value for performance reasons, like primitive types, but unlike primitive types, they don't have explicit copy constructors, for performance reasons.
Passing PODs by value gives rise to all kinds of funky business on 64-bit machines when using GCC:
"On Linux/amd64 with GNUC a class is treated very differently if the copy constructor is declared or not. A class with a copy constructor is always passed through a reference even when the function is declared to pass the type by value. When the copy constructor is not declared, the compiler will pass the type in the CPU registers instead, if the class is small enough. The real complicated part is that when the type is passed in the CPU... more »

Good Morning Google+
One of the founding figures of Fauvism (along with Matisse), the French painter Maurice de Vlaminck was born on April 4th in 1876. De Vlaminck came from an artistic family and was self taught as a  painter. He is best known for his work as a Fauvist painter, in which he was inspired particularly by Cezanne and Van Gogh.

This, his Yellow Brick Road is one of his later works, which are not as well known, both because they no longer had the freshness of Fauvism and because there had been some question of his possible collaboration during WWII. But De Vlaminck was not only a musician, author and painter, he was also a professional bicycle racer and most of his works are landscapes, scenes from the countryside that he explored in part on his bicycle.

Berfore you ask: unfortunately, I have no idea if the Yellow Brick Road was inspired by the Wizard of... more »

To the ocean. 16"×20", Oil on linen panel, February 2013

Today's Daily Paintworks release: http://www.dailypaintworks.com/buy/auction/122272

A memory of summer; this panel has seen multiple reworks from the original plein air study, multiple attempts to crystallize the memory, this moment, this feel of a walk to the ocean: the sun and shadows playing hide-and-seek on your face, and the quiet and rhythmic basso profondo of the ocean waves closer and closer, as though the ocean itself is coming to meet you; yet still invisible – just a couple more steps, a couple more minutes before the encounter.

A journey, or with you alone to cherish (after Marc Chagall and Bulat Okudzhava). 48"×24", Oil on canvas, January 2013

This is the painting I've been working in January, a yearly internal joke as a birthday gift to +Eugene Levine. At least we managed to make the final photo before my birthday... just about two months of procrastination, no more.

Anchoring in Chagall's green fiddler is obvious, yet the ironic undercurrent is strengthened if one knows that the new protagonist of the painting couldn't take the right note on any musical instrument if his life depended on it (but he is very good with cats and other living creatures in his care... ).

As for Bulat Okudzhava, here is a link to the relevant song on YouTube: Булат Окуджава Заезжий музыкант.

And here is a translation of two last quatrains, which mayclarify some elements of the... more »

A Mom visits her son for dinner who lives with a girl roommate.
During the course of the meal, his mother couldn't help but notice how pretty his roommate was.She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this had only made her more curious....

Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between him and his roommate than met the eye.

Reading his mom's thoughts, his son volunteered, “I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you,we are just roommates."

About a week later, his roommate came to him saying, “Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver plate. You don't suppose she took it, do you?"

He said ,"Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be sure." He sat down and wrote :
