This is a great introduction into the work of Lucien Freud. I had seen some of his work beofre, the portrait of Queen Elizabeth for one. But it is very powerful to see so many of his works all together. I have to admit that for me some of them are difficult to look at, but that is probably what he was after. He was pushing reality to the limit I guess, and he came up with some very powerful images. He has always reminded me of Francis Bacon and now I can see why after reading your post. Thanks for such an interesting profile of this important artist.

There is always M-Turk by AmazonBasically peolpe can post tasks and how much they will pay, the tasks cover the gamut and users can do the tasks to make money.Today, we build complex software applications based on the things computers do well, such as storing and retrieving large amounts of information or rapidly performing calculations. However, humans still significantly outperform the most powerful computers at completing such simple tasks as identifying objects in photographse2€”something children can do even before they learn to speak.For businesses and entrepreneurs who want tasks completed, the Amazon Mechanical Turk web service solves the problem of getting work done in a cost-effective manner by peolpe who have the skill to do the work. The service provides access to a vast network of human intelligence with the efficiencies and cost-effectiveness of computers. Oftentimes, the cost of establishing a network of skilled peolpe to do the work outweighs the value of completing it. By turning the fixed costs into variable costs that scale with business needs, the Amazon Mechanical Turk web service eliminates this barrier and allows work to be completed that before was not economical.For peolpe who want to earn money in their spare time, the Amazon Mechanical Turk web site solves the problem of finding work that they can do wherever and whenever they want.

She has been calling me. I'm working on the origin of the calls. This just don't sound like the Maria I know. I would like to compare notes. E-mail me at arizonakoyote@msn.com. I need to settle this and rest peacefully.

She found my e-mail address in Passionads around Feb 2006. They sounded really great to me and I fell for her. Sent me e-mails just like Joe and several other letters I've found from her in other scammer sites. She called me Dale in the middle of one of her letters to me. I asked her about it and she claimed one of her friends did it as a joke when she stepped away from her computer. Having been called Dale I decided to type in her name in a search bar. I my jaw hit the floor with shock of all that I found. My heart came to a halt and Immediately I was hurt. I'm not too much of a man to cry. It hurt. I asked her about this and she said that her friends used the letters she sent to me to, changed the names to correspond with them. That's why she is on scammer sites and blacklists because her friends wanted to ruin our relationship. Like a dumbass I believed her. I never sent her the $400 bucks she asked for as I did not have it. I did sell a bunch of stuff around the house to come up with the money and extra to send to her. I asked for her address so that I could send some flowers. No reply to that e-mail yet. It's been a couple of weeks since I have recieved a letter from her.

Her letters to joe were exactly the same as she sent to me, she states that a jealous friend copied her letter and turned into scam busters to ruin our relationship. Good job Maria and if you read this I told you it was going to happen. Ha ha ha ha
