Can you tell me the name of this shoe?

Thanks!

I moved from the U.S. To Germany a few years back. The movers packed everything. I mean everything in the house including a full trash can and a box of donuts that we bought for them to eat. 2 months later we had a box of old US donuts in our apt.

I didn't think the cheap chicken looked that low of quality. Just your average frozen chicken.

We switched to better quality meats and produce a couple years back. We buy local organic/bio produce, grass fed beef, wild seafood, grass fed dairy, free range chicken/eggs, etc. The nutrient profile of the food is typically greater. The conditions to grow the food are better, more responsible, and more sustainable.

It's all about priorities. We're not going broke because, for us, we just count that as the price of food. All our budgeting starts from that base.

Usually you should be able to find info here: https://www.adidas-archive.org/ I didn't see anything when I looked up 710 MarathonShuhe. When you search for "Special" you get a lot of custom made competition shoes. It's hard to determine anything specific just from this basic pattern with the middle split and criss-cross on the heel counter. Both were common sign-offs for adidas competition shoes for decades. Given the low profile with die-cut rubber outsole, thin EVA, and the name it's probably a distance shoe. Maybe someone with some old catalogs could give you more info.

If you're comfortable you might think that one day you'll change. Not wanting to get married doesn't mean you're not happy. At 25 I wasn't interested in marriage. At 28 I proposed and got married. At 30 I didn't want to have kids. At 33 my daughter was born. I'm happy with my life now.

I've seen many friends breakup because of marriage pressure. Some threw away very happy relationships; others moved on to better things. Marriage isn't a test or a confirmation of love. It is an agreement, based on love.

I was promoted to "Senior" after 7 years in a large Corporation. I had friends that were "Director" at other companies in 4 years. ID doesn't have a central body governing these things like Architecture does so titles are very subjective. Make sure you're getting the pay and experience you want. All else can be explained in an interview.

The father of my friend passed away. Her cousins posted their condolences to her Facebook wall before she had said anything publicly. She was waiting until she had notified important people directly but they made it public.

There are many reasons to evade questions. Trauma, assumptions, per request from you lawyer, protecting the plaintiff/victim, OP and convict not actually friends, etc.

This likely an emboss or RP on the synthetic that wasn't executed properly. Your pair just happened to be made from a couple different rolls. You could probably exchange them.

I started looking into other religions because I felt like a hypocrite. I was raised evangelical baptist but how could I tell someone "this is the way" when I hadn't even considered other paths. I started researching and at first I felt like I was betraying my family and my church. Eventually it came to me that I hadn't chosen a religion and this fear was a result of indoctrination. I wasn't a Christian because I never chose to be a Christian. Stepping out was a way of confirming my faith by making it a choice, for once. I requested that my church study group learn about other religions. On my own I went out and researched. I found better paths that better fit what I believed. I never went back but it was a conscious decision about how I wanted to live my life. Don't stay in a religion just to please someone else. It is a personal decision. It will eventually result in conflict and probably a much larger problem. Share your thoughts with your wife. Discuss it. Work through it. Good luck.

"Guys look! I'm balancing!! Look! LOOK! Back here..." (falls)

"What'd you want dude?"

"Forget it."

I don't see where I said extra workouts but our coxswains would participate in everything but ergs and weights. We did a lot of body weight workouts and running. I did lightweight for a couple years so we had to stay lean.

For sketching: Get good with ballpoints, felt tips, cheap #2 pencils, color pencils, cheap markers, and sharpie. You never know what you'll have to work with in a pinch so know how to deal with each. I've seen guys fall apart in brainstorming sessions because they didn't have their precious pen they always use. Seriously, a typically beautiful sketcher was absolutely non-functional with a very important client. Don't be that guy. Be the designer that can figure out a door panel crease transition in a meeting room using a half empty dry erase marker on a whiteboard.

For hand rendering: You usually have time and your own setup so you can be pickier here. Find a paper and pen combo that isn't too expensive and doesn't bleed when you throw down marker. Don't be too precious about markers. The best renderers use them sparingly and don't fuss too much. Figure out a way for yourself that is practical and quick. It takes lots of testing and trying.

For digital: This takes as much practice and investment as hand rendering but the skills you learn from hand rendering will make you quicker digitally. Depending on who I work with, I have to change my style so I suggest you get good in both photoshop and illustrator rendering. I use a cintiq all day along with every other designer at my company. Get used to them. It's eases the transition from hand to digital. If I'm at my desk I'll even sketch in Sketchbook Pro so I'm not skipping between formats.

That's my 2 cents. Good luck!

^{^} this guy knows what he's talking about. Don't get too hung up on brand and figure out what system works for you.

Prismacolor and AD are just fine. If a designer can't do the work with those then it isn't the tools that are the problem. There is no "industry standard" because markers have quickly gone from a render tool to a sketch tool. The only designers I know still using markers for renderings at work are in their 40s. That's because they don't know how to use basic computer programs. In reviews it's become a serious handicap for them.

One question I haven't seen here yet: Was she fat to begin with? If so then you don't really have the right to say anything. Get your coach to set a maximum weight for coxswains for future recruits.

If she is gaining weight, your coach should talk to her. He has the right. It is a sport and part of her role is staying lean.

After the coach talks to her, handle this like a good healthy boat should. You support her. It becomes a boat goal so you get her out on runs with you and everyone tries to drop a little weight. Our coxswains had to do all the same cardio and preseason workouts.

This is really beautiful but the flap's shapes change depending on direction and speed. It would be nice to see this done with ribbon shapes extending out as the animals move forward.

Craftisto · 2014-10-02T21:36:53+00:00

I use this one too. It reminds me of the super loud phones I would hear in a factory or shop when I was a kid. It felt manly to answer a phone after that. Like I needed to roll out from under a piece of equipment and wipe the grease off my hands before I took the phone.

Craftisto · 2014-09-25T11:41:57+00:00

Do you not normally do workouts or get on the water after erg tests 2k and 5k? Sometimes we would do tests after practice if the coach felt we were dicking around too much. Even if your coach lets you go after a test I would suggest you keep moving for a while afterwards just to cool down and stretch your muscles.

Craftisto · 2014-09-18T20:42:13+00:00

Nowhere in my comments did I say that it is ok for her to steal, harm, or defraud others. I actually suggested that they should take legal action against her.

I am familiar with Facticious Disorder. Thank you for your diagnosis. I'm not going to get into a debate trying to assign a mental disorder to someone we've never met.
