Having a completely new show director, a completely new directive and most importantly, a completely new party venue, the arrival installment in the ASR Trade Expo, Sept. 5-7 in Hillcrest, continues its ever-present mission for produce an industry demonstrate that combines business and pleasure. Easy Skateboarding Tips And Tricks For Beginners Step By Step

The finest news, clearly, remains the appointment of Kevin Flanagan as ASR show director. Limited to work monthly, its northern border Park native was already an action sports industry veteran -- and not because he'd display in the action sport trade exhibition to help his buddy while using then-fledgling brand, Redsand.

Right before joining ASR, Flanagan labored at Globe Worldwide Limited., as v . p . of advertising overseeing Globe, Gallaz, Mooks as well as the company's multimedia concern Whyte House Productions. Before he directed worldwide marketing for Oakley Corporation.

It's not question then, that Flanagan views among his strengths his firsthand understanding from the show in the vendor's perspective.

"In my opinion communication is really key -- between ASR as well as the retailers and manufacturers," he mentioned recently from ASR headquarters in Laguna Beach, Calif. "We'll do anything to keep the dialog going, hearing what their requirements are along with what the retailers want inside the show.

He's knowledgeable meaning maintaining -- in addition to bettering -- the delicate nature in the show, that is equally as much a office since it is a place for revelry (set up beer kegs in exhibitor booths are actually banned lately, the stuff remains available with the convention food counters). In this particular industry, key relationships might be forged near to the skate ramp or at one of the evening parties inside the roar from the punk band.

"I don't think anybody desires to notice be considered a stale, serious show," he mentioned. "But everyone sees that it's should also actually cover writing orders."

Flanagan noted his strategy continues the goals set by his predecessor Court Overin, who died in November 2001 at 43 of respiratory system system failure due to lung fibrosis. Among individuals goals is building on ASR's objective just like a showcase for every facet of the knowledge sports and youth lifestyles. Not just a location to obtain the approaching season's goods, the best skateboards ASR touts the culture's link to music and art. Within the February show in Extended Beach, Op located an energetic auction of surf nostalgia, from pieces of art photos to hands-crafted vintage surfboards and related ephemera.

The job was started in 1999 by Jason Carrougher, a designer and snowboarder. Carrougher, now an image designer, has presented 3prtmix in warehouses, galleries or perhaps a Chinese restaurant, always soliciting artworks and selling them in the same nights the invite-only event. Live music and DJ's give you the soundtrack, and facets of fashion -- whether or not they are built-into a couple of from the works or offered beneath the 3prtmix mantle -- complete the trifecta.

"It definitely is been your dog project getting a large vision," mentioned the 30-year-old founder, who first initiated the occasions in order to pay back a person debt transporting out a significant vehicle accident. Artists now either keep the auction funds by themselves or donate those to a charity. Some 30 artists will showcase the job they are doing inside the convention center mezzanine. A silent auction will run through the initial few occasions from the show, culminating round the second evening getting a celebration co-located by Volcom, Osiris, Copia, Paul Frank Furniture, Von Zipper and Seasons. Among individuals artists already confirmed are New You'll be able to graffiti artist Stash, La graffiti artist Clever, surf pioneer Roy Gonzalez, rock artist Marco Almera, professional professional photographer Ali Haj and snowboard park designer/artwork graffiti artist Mike Parillo.

But 3prtmix isn't the main party ASR is hosting. Its traditional opening-night shindig will occur now off-campus, as the saying goes, inside a nightclub in San Diego's Gaslamp Quarter referred to as fourth & B. Co-supported by O'Neil and Surfer magazine, the wedding features bands Limousines Tramps and Wax Apple.

Throughout the day, plus the convention center, the knowledge of course will concentrate on the skateboard ramps. The primary difference, though, is the vertical half-pipe as well as other facets of this program will probably be stationed inside inside the primary hall, rather than outdoors as in the past. how to choose a skateboard

Clearly, the expo might have its standby features, prefer booth awards which endlessly spur vendors into creating bigger, bolder and increasingly more bizarre showcases for collections of T-shirts and cargo pants.

The Three-day show also coincides with San Diego's Street Scene, billed since the largest music fest in California plus a short walk-in the convention center.

My comfort zone will always be rooted in quality over quantity. That being said, I try to keep my chapters concise, around 1-2 Lit pages. I don't bother with the microanalysis is keeping track of how many words I type. I just want a clear, detailed, quality chapter that I enjoy writing and people enjoy reading. As long as I have posted chapters, no one has commented on how long or short my chapters were😎👠👠👠Kant🌹
 
Whats your comfort zone?

Depends on the story - some need two pages, some need five or six. It's not a question of comfort zone, it's more a question of "how long does this chapter/story need to be?"

Ayup.

I don't claim to always be right, but I pretty much tend to write as much story as I think there is to be told. On Lit alone, I've done one pagers and I've done 13 screens. (Don't ask me about 1200 page manuscript back in '93. You don't want to know what it cost to mail that thing around to slush piles. :eek:)

Quite. Some tales can be well-told in one LIT page, about 3700 words. Some need 20+ LIT pages -- although such may be non-serial contest entries. I've only rarely gone up to six pages for one piece, often staying around 2-3 pages for serial chapters, but sometimes they grow.

And some vignettes may not reach the 750-word LIT minimum. I've done a couple of mini-collections of vignettes. Ogg is famous for writing 50-word tales and packing 15-20 of them into one text to reach that minimum. Let's see, what's that Hemingway shorty? "For sale: baby shoes, never worn." That tells it all, succinctly. We have six-word story challenges in the Exercises forum here. How low can you go?

At the other extreme... isn't there a 76-page story up somewhere?

A story or chapter should be just long enough. Longer pieces do tend to get higher votes -- because only those who like a long piece will finish and vote for it.
 
The first draft of my latest runs 26,000 words. Call it 6-7 LIT pages.

It starts with a beating and ends with a blowjob. I removed the long scene of the young wife giving a nasty homeless wino a blowjob as her homo husband filmed it.

It took me forever to find a way to go from 1000 words to 25,000. For almost 30 years the Department of Health and Rehab limited me to 85 lines for my reports. Now you get 40 pages of space. 85 lines is around 1000 words.

Whats your comfort zone?

You lost me at the perceived need to force going to 25,000 words.

As far as comfort zone, humiliation and water sports are outside my comfort zone--more to the point, so is meaningless verbosity.
 
Hmmm. Possibly. James hasn't been posting for a few days and there's every reason why he'd want to change his account here again.

I agree, and as mentioned above, I do 50 word stories.

It is easy to write more than the story needs. It is hard to reduce the length to the exact size for the particular story from an overly long draft. If you can, be as short as possible and add just a little detail on the edit.
 
74 to 76 degrees and yes, this sounds just like JBJ and his constant point of keeping things limited and why.

He's as bad about alts as freddie. Neither can believe people have memories.
 
Wrong again. You and your ass kissers are boring.

It's much too easy to switch your button--not that I switched the button. :D

Beyond that, you don't have a very high veracity rating, so there's that then.
 
Looks very much like a good call, Bramblethorn. Sontung's join date, with a post using Lit. lingo, is today. Wonder where sontung will be taken from here--and how long it will be before there is a mention of Raymond Chandler. :D
 
Comfort zone: I like 4500-7500 feet in the Cordillera (mountainous backbone) of North and Central America. Temps in the 70s Fahrenheit. Not too wet, not too dry. Cheap food, beer, and aguardiente (sugarcane rum) are a plus. College towns, lazy cops, people not overdressed, decent air, historical insanity. Yeah, those do it for me.

I honestly didn't realise it was supposed to be a secret. Not with this:

I usta do tv interviews for the Department of Health and Rehab because I know hoe to be honest and sincere and say nothing. I gave them no soundbites yet answered every question.

For almost 30 years the Department of Health and Rehab limited me to 85 lines for my reports.

plus four other JBJ-isms that I noticed in the OP.
 
Including the signature failure to mark the possessive.

The most fun part was his denial. :D

I suppose what comes next is the claim that he did it knowing he'd be called out on it.

Sontung still has precisely one post. Will there be more? Will my iggy list expand?
 
Guess sontung didn't work out too well for you, did it, James? :D
 
My comfort zone is 7500+ words per story. 7500+ words is 70% of the sales price territory.
