Police said vandals have hit a fur shop owned by Des Moines Mayor Frank Cownie.
A passerby on Sunday morning noticed the damage at Cownie Furs, west of the city's downtown.
Police said someone spray-painted the word "murder" on the side of the building, and three windows and three glass doors were broken.
Damage was estimated at $2,700.
There have been no arrests in the incident.

Come March 1, should I call him Benedict XVI or Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger? Photo by Franco Origlia/Getty Images
Pope Benedict XVI stunned the world today by announcing his resignation from the papacy, effective Feb. 28. He will be the first pope to step down since Gregory XII in 1415. His resignation raises several questions that the Explainer will endeavor to answer?even though the near-unprecedented nature of Benedict?s decision means that in several cases, we?ll just have to wait and see.
Should I still call him Benedict XVI, or does he go back to being Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger?
We don?t know yet what name he?ll go by. Pope Gregory XII (born Angelo Correr) continued to be known as Gregory until his death in 1417.
We also don?t know whether Benedict will become a cardinal again. He won?t automatically revert to being cardinal?he would have to be reappointed cardinal by his successor. There is some precedent for this to happen; Pope Gregory XII was appointed cardinal upon his abdication.
Benedict will definitely remain a bishop until his death, since becoming a bishop is a sacrament, and even bishops who are removed from office aren?t stripped of that title.
He?ll move to the Apostolic Palace of Castel Gandolfo, the pope?s summer residence. Castel Gandolfo is a resort town on Lake Albano near Rome. Afterward, he?ll move to a monastery of nuns in the Vatican. (At the moment, he?s waiting on renovation work at the monastery to be completed.) It?s unclear whether he?ll remain in the Vatican or move elsewhere (perhaps in his native Bavaria) once he?s concluded ?a period of prayer and reflection? at the monastery.
What kind of retirement benefits does the pope have? Does he get a pension?
Since no pope has retired in almost 600 years, there is no formal retirement plan for popes. However, as a bishop (and possibly a cardinal), Benedict will continue to have access to the Vatican?s lavish healthcare plan and probably also to the private doctors who currently manage his medical treatment. The pope does not officially receive a salary, though his needs are seen to by the Holy See. Canon law requires each diocese to provide support and housing for its priests after they retire, though the details of priests? and bishops? pension plans vary from country to country.
Will he have any say in choosing his successor?
Officially, no. Pope Benedict XVI will not participate in the papal conclave to elect the next pope. (For one thing, as previously mentioned, he may not revert to being a cardinal. For another thing, he?s too old to take part in the papal enclave?only cardinals under the age of 80 may vote.) However, Pope Benedict appointed 67 of the 118 members of the College of Cardinals who are currently eligible to participate in the election of the next pope. This means that Benedict will have had at least an indirect influence over the election.
Will he still be infallible?
No?and in fact, he?s never been infallible. In accordance with the First Vatican Council of 1870, the pope is infallible only when he makes an ex cathedra statement?that is, a statement concerning ?a doctrine concerning faith or morals to be held by the whole Church.? Most popes never make ex cathedra statements during their papacy; only one infallible statement (regarding the Assumption of Mary) has been made since the First Vatican Council of 1870. Pope John XXIII was quoted as saying, ?I am only infallible if I speak infallibly but I shall never do that, so I am not infallible.? Pope Benedict XVI has never spoken ex cathedra, and he will lose the ability to do so once he resigns from the papacy.
Will he maintain control of the @pontifex Twitter account, or will his successor inherit it?
It?s unclear at the moment. However, when the Vatican was choosing a handle for the pope, @benedictusppxvi was considered and rejected in favor of the more general, less personal @pontifex. This would seem to indicate the Twitter handle is attached to the office, not the man. Additionally, though Benedict personally composed his first tweet on an iPad on Dec. 12 (not without technical difficulty), most of the tweets from his account have been composed by aides. Therefore, it?s likely that control of the Twitter account will remain with the Vatican rather than with Benedict.

February 9, 2013 at 11 AM, was the Visual Graphic Design Conference in SM Cinema 2 Cebu. My much awaited conference this year has finally happened, and today I will be sharing my experience to everyone!
When I came to SM, it hasn?t started yet, and honestly, when there is a new conference like this next time I will surely be the first on the line because it was soooo tiring to stand there and wait for the super long line, unless you have some co-workers or friends with you, it wouldn?t be that bad. But seriously, it was a bit frustrating, but anyway, it started officially at 11:30 AM and I am still glad about it.
As always, a conference will start by introducing what this is all about. The sponsors, should be mentioned, what?s gonna happen, and the host will be the one to do this. She was one great host I think, she makes the whole conference wake up, and I think that should be the personality of a host.
So here is the host of the conference, I just want to tell you that I am not that good with names. So I forgot their names, and wasn?t that confident to talk to them though
Now let me share to you the speakers, and awesome experiences and wisdom they have shared.
The first one was?Alduane?Ma?o, he is an illustrator and apparel designer. So he creates designs for the t-shirts. Let me include the information from http://visualdesign.ph so that this is complete:
?Alduane Mano was born and raised in ?The Land of Promise?, Davao City. He is a self-taught graphic artist and illustrator. Alduane finished a degree in Civil Engineering yet chose to pursue his heart for arts and media. His body of work ranges from posters, cd art to merch design, catering mainly the entertainment and clothing industry. Driven by a desire to uplift and influence this visual generation, Alduane started creating vintage looking ? cartoon based artworks for his local and international clientele?
I am sorry that the picture isn?t that good and clear. I took this at the very front, I made sure I can sit in the front so that I can understand everything and get so focused on the discussion. The picture above is when the host gave plaques of appreciation to all the speakers ? this was the end part. I can?t take photos of the speakers while they?re discussing because it was too dark, only the screen is clear.
Please see their site?http://visualdesign.ph?for their works, or search them on google or facebook. For me, I really searched all these speakers so that I can see the updates of their works, and get inspired everyday!
For Alduane, here is his facebook page:?http://www.facebook.com/AlduaneMano
He showed some awesome, cool, fantastic illustrations. I appreciate his artworks, I think they?re unique and unusual, but as a girl, I think the designs are so masculine. So maybe his clients are mostly males ? just a guess. But overall, the designs are unique and very creative. He is definitely a one of a kind artist!
Now let?s move on!
?
He?s Charles Buenconsejo, and I think he is the weirdest, super unique and creative artist I have ever seen personally. Most artists express who they really are through their artworks, and this guy showed it through his character ? what people see ? and it completely comes out to all his artworks.
He?s a photographer by the way, and he?s photos are unique, sometimes I don?t understand why he took those pictures. An example of the picture he took (which I wasn?t able to capture) was a picture of a dead rat on the road. He took it HD, and the rat is so clear and gloomy. ?Of course, you all know that I don?t like gloomy, dark, deadly photos. But anyway, he expresses who he is through his artworks, and I appreciate that. There are a lot of ways you can express who you really are, and artwork is a great medium.
Let me paste the bio from visualdesign.ph
?Charles Buenconsejo was born in 1984 and hails from the province of Cebu. A painting student in the Certificate of Fine Arts, UP Cebu, he moved on to experiment with photography after his father, also a photographer, introduced him to the gifts of the camera. He currently lives in Manila, dividing his time between personal projects, commercial and magazine work?
To watch his works, please open visualdesign.ph, you can also try and google his artworks. Unfortunately, I wasn?t able to find his facebook page, I sure hope I could. I just found his website portfolio on it with a contact email address, see:?http://www.every2nd.net/
Guys, just click the pictures if you want to see the full sizes alright?
Anyway, here?s Dan Matutina, he?s an illustrator and I find his artworks very impressive and creative. I can remember my friends doing doodles on their notebooks when I saw his artworks. I think I should show you an example of his artwork which I find very creative, here?s one:
?
See what I am talking about? He?s artworks are, I don?t know, it?s difficult to describe, maybe the perfect adjective here is ?speechless?? Hehehe
The artwork is I think can be described as an illustrated, doodled, image with some noise on it. I don?t know, it?s just very unique, and beautiful. I am amazed!
?Dan Matutina is a designer and illustrator whose style is a mix of handmade and digital, clean and dirty, old and modern aesthetics. He loves mixing colors with different textures and shapes to tell a story. He is a co-founder and partner at Plus63 Design Co. His body of work include collaborations with GOOD Magazine, Google Think Quarterly, Mediatemple, WIRED, Rogue Magazine, Droga5 and other tech startups, ad agencies and design studios.
Aside from art and design, his other loves include coffee and turon.?
So yes, he can?t speak straight bisaya I guess, because he?s from Leyte. He uses Tagalog, and English when he explained his crafts.
And yes of course, he created his own company/studio, and it was awesome. That?s my dream, to have my own studio as well, with all the tools inside the room, all the tools you need to use to create what?s in your imagination, that?s what ?we always dreamed of as artists.?Don?t forget to open his works here:?http://twistedfork.me/?I also follow his twitter account for updates about his artworks.?https://twitter.com/danmatutina
He?s Don Frasco, and he explained a lot of ?nose-bleeding? terms about cinematography to us. I just took pictures of the notes on the screen. Maybe I can share those notes someday, maybe, if I fully understand what this is all about.
One thing I will never forget about his explanation, is that cinematographer is the one who takes care of the light and exposure, so it?s more on the camera. And the production designer, will be the one to work for the art direction. I thought they?re just the same before, alright, it?s clear now.
He discussed a lot actually, and it wont fit here. So anyway, let me place his bio from visualdesign.ph
?Don Gerardo Frasco is a filmmaker trained in the art and craft of Cinematography. His skills derive from his initial education as a Still Photographer at the International Academy of Film and Television in 2006, and as a Director at the New York Film Academy in 2009. After graduating from the One-Year Filmmaking program, Don interned at XXXXMagazine under fashion photographer Indira Cesarine, shooting fashion videos for the online magazine. His freelance work includes experiences as Director of Photograhy, Gaffer, and Assistant Camera on several shoots. Don returned to the New York Film Academy in 2011 to complete the One-Year Cinematography program, where he became intimately experienced with the RED, 16mm, and 35mm.
Since then, Don has been the Cinematographer for over twenty short films, along with five fashion videos. He was also a creative consultant for John Henri Alston?s feature film, Red Butterfly. Don?s experience as a director has made him peerless in his sensitivity for lighting and camerawork. His cinematography is deeply influenced by the emotions of the characters, which makes his work subjective, unique, and powerful.?
By the way, his name sounds so rich, hehe, Don. I added him on facebook as well, maybe I could be updated for more cinematography topics he can share. Don?t know if he accepted me already, but I made sure to follow his public posts anyway.
But here is his main site:?http://www.donfrasco.com/
And I think he?s an owner of titay?s in Cebu? Just check out his facebook page and titay?s here:?http://www.facebook.com/titaysliloan and?http://www.facebook.com/donfrasco

Dwynn Trazo ? I think this man?s job is probably one of the most challenging artistic job I?ve ever known. Oh my, he discusses what information graphics is all about, and what he does. My goodness, it?s very very challenging and needs lots and lots of brain storming and most especially research and research and research.
Here?s an example of his mind blowing work:
?
When you open it, well lots of information are there. His job was to make a design in this whole page, that will fit lots and lots of information about the subject. It?s like journalism or essay writing, but the problem here is that you need to create a very intensive design. Which means that all the information are all connected to the subject, so you need to create a design that creates connection, trivia, and squeezed specific information into the page. You?ll need to make lots and lots of?analyzing. I am amazed by every pages he showed on the conference, he was like a teacher to the kids about, well very broad topics!
Anyway, here?s more info about him:
?Dwynn Trazo holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at the University of San Carlos, graduating Cum Laude in 2001. He started as a Graphic Artist at Creatron (2001-2002) early in his career, then moved on to become Creative Supervisor at Bigfoot Global Solutions, Inc. maintaining various websites while briefly immersing himself in 3D projects.
In 2006, he accepted a position at Dubai-based media giant, Gulf News, as an Infographic Designer. It proved to be his best decision career-wise. Six years later, Dwynn has received 30 international awards and recognitions as visual journalist for Gulf News. That?s 25 Awards of Excellence and 1 Silver Award from SND (Society for News Design), 2 Golds and 1 Silver from WAN-IFRA (Asia Media Awards) and 1 Bronze from Malofiej (the infographic summit). Additionally, 5 of his editorial cartoons have also been recognized and published by the WPC (World Press Cartoon) for four straight years now. His eye for detail and structure, commitment, willingness and sense of leadership are what he considers the main traits that got him the accolades.
He is also a part-time musician and a lifetime fitness enthusiast.?
And unfortunately, I only found one page of him:?http://www.dwynntrazo.com/?and I think it wasn?t updated yet. He has a facebook page, it was?http://www.facebook.com/dwynn.trazo?but I haven?t seen any updates yet. Wish to see some updates about information graphics. But you can find some of his works through google images, so that you?ll see what I am talking about.
Yes, right, he?s one super noisy, loud, with awesome character artist. I kept laughing when it was his turn. His talent is very basic, but cool and he focused on it and look where is he now? He?s a great comic illustrator, he?s works are awesome, as in awesome and jaw-dropping drawings of superheroes, very detailed and you can really sense the years he invested in mastering the craft. He?s amazing, that?s all I can say.
You know what? He already worked in Marvel, and DC comics, all his hard work is paid off. He said he is from Mindanao, and asked his father, also an artist, that he wanted to go to Cebu because he believed that Cebu is the place for comic artists. He was a scholar in DOST and took IT in college, but still pursued drawing!
?Harvey Montecillo Tolibao hails from Malaybalay, Bukidnon. He studied Information Technology and held various jobs including furniture designer, cartoonist, graphic artist, illustrator, web designer, tattoo artist and messenger, but he was determined to pursue his dream of becoming a comic book artist.
In 2007, Marvel gave him his big break on the Iron Man Annual. Since then he has been working as a freelance artist for Marvel Comics and is popularly known for his mini-series in collaboration with Christopher Yost in ?Psylocke?, ?X-Men: Hellbound?, ?Uncanny X-Men? and variant covers for Heroes For Hire. In 2011, he worked on ?Star Wars Knights of the Republic? and ?New Guardians? in the Green Lantern series. In 2012, DC had a deck shuffling and created a new team which gave him the chance to work on the Green Arrow series with writer Ann Nocenti.?
Here?s his facebook, you?ll see some of his amazing artworks here:?http://www.facebook.com/harvey.tolibao
?The main thing asked by Singapore company ILM from him to work for transformers, was the use of cloth, he showed us his example, it was a girl dancing in pink japanese dress. It was really great, and like I was just staring at the screen for his whole discussion, like?.oohhh myy goooddnees! He rockes!
?Gem Cadiz is a Creature Technical Director for Industrial Light and Magic under Lucasfilm Animation Singapore. He started doing 3d animations as a hobby back in 2004 and got his first job as a junior video editor in 2005. He then became a 3d generalist and got into infomercial work for 2 years and about a year and a half in architectural visualization as well. He?s been with Lucasfilm Singapore ever since he got into the Jedi Masters Program back in 2009 as a Creature Dev apprentice. He has had the privilege to work on great projects such as Rango, Transformers: 3 (Dark of the Moon), Transformers 3 The Ride (Universal Studios Singapore), Star Wars: The Clone Wars (animated TV series), and more recently Pacific Rim.?
Here?s his facebook page:?http://www.facebook.com/rockgem3d?and of course his IMDB:?http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4263916/
And here they are, the 7 speakers who helped us grow in our crafts as artists. We have the chance to ask questions, and the best question with will be chosen to receive t-shirts from the sponsors.
I did not ask any question, hehe, I just can?t think of any question yet because I was amazed by their lives and stories.
Also, after every speaker, there is a raffle, and I wasn?t chosen and did not get any t-shirts 
Anyway, University of the Visayas, the sponsor of this event showcased their ?new school called the ?New Media and Design School?, they even showed pictures of the environment where students will be learning and get inspired with the fun environment. They also explained to us that they are opening 1 year diploma for graphics, 30k, 3 months basics and focusing on the major graphic learning?for 60k, and a 1 month intensive training for 15k.
They discussed the advantages about taking courses from their new school, one is ? ?no more minor subjects! I think that is so cool.
I guess that is all for today. We received some brochures, on this little bag from the conference, and there are other information from this brochure. I might be adding this information later.
So there, it ended 7 PM.
Make sure to check their site for the sponsors okay?
