AUDI is readying a lighter, more All upmarket and practical Q3 that will arrive in dealers in 2018. The current SUV is the oldest model in the Audi range, but increased competition within the VW Group – with the launch of the SEAT Ateca and new Volkswagen Tiguan – means it will get an overhaul inside and out to keep it on the pace.
And our exclusive images show how it could look. Under the skin, the existing Q3 uses running gear that can be traced back to the Mk5 VW Golf, and like so many other models within the VW Group, the new version will switch to the ubiquitous MQB platform – used on everything from Audi's TT sports car to the Skoda Kodiaq SUV.
The new underpinnings present various advantages: less weight, more space and the possibility of plug-in hybrid technology. The new model will share a similar footprint to the current Q3, but there will be small increases in length and width – 60mm and 50mm respectively -while the wheelbase is expected to be stretched by up to 50 mm, too. Those gains in size will help boost practicality as Audi looks to provide more cabin space for passengers in the rear. Boot capacity is expected to increase from the current car's 420 litres, too. Audi is expected to follow a similar design approach to that it adopted on the second-generation Q5. This means a modest exterior revamp for the BMW X1 rival, with a new grille and sharper LED headlamps. However, more radical changes are due inside. The current model's cluttered dashboard and centre console design will make way fora far slicker and more ergonomic layout, inspired by the larger Q5.
Audi's Virtual Cockpit display will replace the conventional instrument cluster behind the steering wheel, while a dashboard that is designed horizontally rather than vertically will increase the visual width of the cabin. The new MQB chassis also opens up a range of new engine possibilities for the Q3,with the most significant being a plug-in hybrid e-tron. It won't arrive immediately, however, and is likely to land around 12 months after the Q3's initial launch. The powertrain is expected to comprise a 1.4-litre TFSI engine and an electric motor, which combine to deliver official economy of over 150 mpg with CO2 emissions below 40g/km. Auto Express also understands Audi is plotting an all-electric Q3.
It could use underpinnings from the updated VW e-GoIf, which now boasts a range of 186 miles. The car would offer a quick-charge set-up to make the Q3 EV a more viable proposition for consumers. At the opposite end of the range will be an RS Q3. It's likely to use the latest version of Audi's five-cylinder turbo, which is not only lighter- it's made from aluminium – but also far more powerful, with 394bhp. As in the current car, it will be transmitted via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox and quattro four-wheel drive. The rest of the range will comprise four-cylinder petrol and diesel engines, with displacements ofl.5 and 2.0 litres. Power will range from 148bhp to 218bhp.

The FlatSkin® system uses a cardboard carrier made from bleached or unbleached fibre, which can be printed on both sides by means of low-migration printing inks and varnishes. The carrier is coated with a polymeric protective layer. A highly transparent barrier skin film fixates the product directly onto its flat support, which allows for excellent vertical presentation. A peel tab simplifies the opening of the skin pack. After taking out the product, the thin polymeric layer is easily removed from the cardboard to allow for separate disposal. That is why FlatSkin® convinces in terms of sustainability.
FlatSkin® is suitable for a wide range of product segments. Whether sausages, cheese, fresh meat, poultry, seafood or vegetarian foods - this revolutionary vacuum packaging will turn each of those products into a highlight at retail.

- Deep vacuum, clearly longer shelf life
- Fully separable in plastic and cardboard
- Optimal branding owing to the two-sided printing of the product carrier

RSA aiming for usability through innovation, says CTO
Usability is a key focus of innovation at RSA, the security division of EMC, according to chief technology officer (CTO) Zulfikar Ramzan."Usability of technology is critical to working as part of a broader ecosystem in an organisation to deliver value," he said. Although he took up the role in March 2015, Ramzan said that as a former student of RSA co-founder Ronald Rivest, he knows the company history better than most. The challenge he sees facing RSA as a technology company is making products that are easy to use, but allow some flexibility at the same time. "Our security analytics technology, for example, can augment whatever Siem [security information and event management] system an organisation has in place, but it can also be used as part of a programme aimed…

This session was done in two parts - I met them in the driveway as they pulled in from the hospital to capture his first couple minutes at home where he met his big furry sister and busted out a huge smile in his bassinet!! Part two was about a week later and I could already tell how much he had grown and see how they have all settled into each other perfectly. This little guy was so cute with his little tiny squeaks and easy going personality. Take a look!

A UMass ZooDisc player celebrates after scoring at the Stanford Invite earlier this spring. Photo by Rodney Chen of UltiPhotos.com.
Some delayed words on the tournament from three weekends ago.
- Saturday was a beautiful day for ultimate, Sunday not so much due to rain. The fields held up surprisingly well for the amount of rain that fell though, something you can't say for a lot of field sites. When talking with Greg Vassar (UNCW coach and the TD), he wasn't too worried about overuse at the field site between High Tide and then the upcoming DIII Easterns events.
- Cook Out was only a 20-minute drive from the fields. #blessed
- As has always been the case, it was a well-run tournament and keeps getting better over the years.
- The most interesting result of the tournament is going to be how weekend performances affected bid implications.
- How much stock should be placed in the final results though? UMass is without a doubt one of the best teams in the nation, especially with Babbit back at their disposal, but figuring out where Pittsburgh, Florida, and Stanford fit into the conversation is difficult after this weekend.
- Pittsburgh hit a UNCW team that caught fire after some not so stellar results the rest of the weekend.
- Florida looks like the best team out of their region, but depending on who they hit at Nationals and/or if they don't take the #1 spot at regionals in a few weekends, an early exit seems like a possibility.
- Stanford has a really impressive win over UNC-W from this tournament, but where does the North Carolina loss fit in? Just very confused as to where to place this team.
- North Carolina confuses me too. Not sure how seriously to take them, and what their ceiling possibly could be. Watching them, or even just straight looking at their results, their spot nationally just doesn't have a solid placement to me.
- And then you have teams like Georgia, Harvard, Central Florida, Colorado and Florida State.
- Georgia is the only one of those teams to have made the championship bracket after an impressive showing in Pool D, and took 5th via forfeit, but the blowout loss to UMass looks bad when trying to consider any possible ceiling for the end of their season. Jeff Haskell was a very impressive cutter, though I worry that the Philadelphia Flyers hat he wears will someday have a negative effect on his play. After Florida, is Georgia the best team out of the Southeast? (Yes.)
- Harvard's 15-8 loss to Minnesota was costly, with the -5 point differential costing them a shot at the championship bracket. But then following that up with a 13th place finish after a loss to Florida State in the 9th place bracket stings even more. After the Stanford Invite, Harvard could conceivably be thought of as a quarterfinalist at the College Championships - now, I think, a challenger in pre-quarters. The most impressive aspect of their play this weekend was their defense's offense, which functioned seamlessly without crossing over any offensive-line players.
- Central Florida played each of Minnesota and Harvard extremely close, while beating UConn and losing definitively to Georgia to end their Saturday. They are without a doubt one of the weaker Central Florida teams of the past few seasons, but that still doesn't mean they aren't capable of more. Like Harvard, prequarters during Nationals may be where they finish, but with Andrew Roca at the helm and a strong core of players, a surprise trip to quarterfinals isn't unreasonable.
- Notice that the last three teams were all in Pool D - what a great pool that was. Colorado may not be the national powerhouse this season, but they still have the makings to be a team that disrupts on the national level and the future is certainly still bright.
- Florida State isn't the team they've been in years past, but still brings it in each and every game.
- Trent Dillon is still the favorite I think for the Callahan and any other end of season individual award. Talking with a Wilmington parent during their quarterfinal game against Pittsburgh, they remarked just how blown away they were with his determination in that game - a game Pitt lost. I hope the Ultiworld cameras caught his hat kick-spike during the marathon second-to-last point of the game (they did).
- After Trent, who else from this tournament is in the conversation? Babbitt from UMass, who will be Trent's main challenger, Maxstadt from UNC-Wilmington, and possibly Jagt from Minnesota. Maxstadt though will undoubtably have his national standing hurt from the controversy that got played up post-Easterns.
- It's great to see Mike Gerics back at it, he observed games all weekend long. Wonder if he'll be doing regionals or even nationals with its location and all.
I only caught a few points sparingly of pool play on Saturday and the finals on Sunday, but UNC-Wilmington seemed a class above the rest of the competition.

← Part of the Valley Blueprint Network
A community land trust (CLT) is a private non-profit community organization that safeguards land in order to provide affordable housing opportunities. CLTs acquire properties through market purchase and/or land donations. The land trust retains the title to the land while selling homes on it at below-market value. The CLT keeps the price of homes affordable by separating the price of the house from the cost of the land. The land is leased at a nominal cost (often $1) through a ground lease. When a family decides to sell a CLT home, the home is either sold back to the land trust or to another income-qualified buyer. The resale amount is determined by a formula that provides a fair return on investment to the seller, but also ensures the property remains affordable to future purchasers.
CLTs can be used to reduce the widening gap between income and housing costs and to revitalize neighborhoods without causing gentrification. Local residents can experience the benefits of homeownership and long-term control of neighborhood resources through a variety of housing types including a house, an apartment, or a housing cooperative. Residents are members of the non-profit organization and are encouraged to actively participate by joining the board of directors. Most importantly, CLT provisions permanently preserve the affordability of housing for lower-income groups who do not normally have access to homeownership. The CLT model has been successful in providing over 5,000 homes in community-controlled neighborhoods nationwide.

Animators Before Disney!
Animation industry for quite sometime has created an upstorm. But how many of us actually know that the origin of this word goes back to the medieval period? If one looks at the etymology of this word, it comes from the Latin word animationem which means the action of imparting life. However, this word, in the commercial sense, has been in vogue since 1912.
When we talk about animation as a process, it can be referred to creating continuous motion and changing illusions by a rapid display of a sequence of static images which may differ from each other. In other words, inanimate objects appear to come to life by flashing minutely changed images at a rate at which our brain is able to interpret the movement. For this, it becomes necessary to understand the phenomenon of persistence of vision (PoV). As per PoV, any image that flashes in front of our eyes, it remains in our brain for about 1/25th of a second. In short, if our eyes see 25 images in a second, they would appear seamless and the sequence would have no gaps in between them. This is the principle that both motion pictures and animation work on.
As a top of the mind recall, Disney is the name that comes to one's mind whenever anyone is asked to tell the name anyone associated with animation. However, even before Walt Disney, there were few notable individuals who have contributed to the field of animation when it was still in its infancy. As we read on, we will get to know about four such men who had remained unsung for a long time for their contributions.
Pioneers in animation
James Stuart Blackton
1875 born Blackton was a talented artist who started off by making caricatures in the New York World. He debuted as a cartoonist in 1896 along with Albert Smith. Recognizing his talents as a cartoonist, he was hired by Thomas Alva Edison's Black Maria studio to make three 150-foot films. It was for this studio had he made Humorous Cartoon, Political Cartoon and Sketching Mr. Edison and when these premiered at the Proctor's Pleasure Palace in New York on the 12th September 1896, it made the audience to take note of Blackton's talents. This also helped him to enter the film word. The next year, he founded Vitagraph along with Albert Smith as well as acted in The Burglar on the Roof and produced Tearing Down the Spanish Flag in 1898. As the 20th century dawned, Vitagraph had become a major American film production company and Blackton had introduced techniques like stop camera techniques and under-cranking. Being regarded as the father of the American animated cartoon, he directed Raffles the Amateur Cracksman in 1905. Returning back to cartoons, he delivered hits such as The Enchanted Drawing (1906), Humorous Phases of Funny Faces (1906), Lightning Sketches (1907) and The Magic Fountain Pen (1909). His studio went on to make serials, feature films and series in the 1910's and is credited for making the first British full colour film The Glorious Adventure in 1922. However, the Wall Street Crash of 1929 reduced Blackton to a pauper and he died in 1941 in an accident.
Emile Eugène Jean Louis Courtet or Émile Cohl as the world knows him now was born in Paris in 1857. He began as a caricaturist and joined the Gaumont film company as a writer. As a versatile director, he made comedies and on fantasy subjects. He was gradually drawn to animation and began experimenting on it by using line drawings, silhouettes and puppets. It was in 1908 that he made Fantasmagorie (Fantasy in English) which is regarded as the first all-animated film in history. Over 650 drawings of the character Fantoche were created and individually photographed! Post Fantasmagorie, Cohl created 200+ animated films till 1923 for leading studios like Eclair and Pathe. Unfortunately, the Great Depression of 1929 ruined his savings and he died in abject poverty in 1938.
Winsor McCay
Born at Ontario, Canada in 1867, McCay started off as a poster and billboard artist in Chicago in 1888. He also worked for various newspapers in cities like Cincinnati and New York City wherein he had created comic strips- Little Sammy Sneeze and Dream of the Rarebit Fiend. 1911 saw to the emergence of Little Nemo in Slumberland which is regarded as McCay's masterpiece in comic-strip art. He had drawn inspiration from the works of Blackton and Cohl and later made an animated version of Little Nemo. The success of Nemo encouraged him to make How a Mosquito Operates in 1912 followed by his greatest hit Gertie the Dinosaur two years later. It is said that McCay himself drew all the backgrounds and each of the 10,000 plus drawings! The world had to wait till 1918 when McCay produced The Sinking of the Lusitania which was one of the first movies to utilize the technique of cel animation. His last movie was the 1921 released The Flying House. After that, McCay returned back to newspaper cartoons which he continued to do till his demise in 1934.
Otto Messmer
Otto James Messmer was born in 1892 and is even now remembered for the Felix the Cat that he created in 1919 for the Pat Sullivan studio. After his initial training in art, he started off making illustrations for fashion magazines. But being inspired by McCay's How a Mosquito Operates and his love for cartooning made him to start creating cartoons for local newspapers. After initially working with "Henry-Hy-Mayer" on The Travels of Teddy series, Messmer joined the Pat Sullivan studio wherein he created the character of Felix the Cat. Felix has the distinction of being the character that was created and developed for the 70 mm screen as well as the mass merchandised character. This character appeared in over 130 cartoons till 1931 and entered comic books in the 1940's. By the time Messmer died in 1983, Felix the Cat had made his debut in TV as well and he was being recognized as its official creator.
Though Walt Disney is remembered for revolutionizing animation and introducing a large number of lovable characters into this world, it is equally important for us to acknowledge and recognize the contributions made by these animators as well. Though their volume of work may appear trivial, they will be remembered for ensuring the success of animation especially during its initial phases which even leave us all in awe when we get to see them.
Thanks for reading!

Capitol: Derilath (population: 37,000)
Population: 1,292,000 (89% Thalari, 8% Amari, 3% other)
Demi-humans: 63,000 (75% dwarves, 12% halflings, 9% gnomes, 4% elves)
Humanoids: some
Government: Monarchy (currently ruled by the Norax Dynasty)
Current Leader: King Briand II
Coat of Arms: a white polar bear over a black field outlined in bright green
Exports: ice, furs, fish, iron, whale oil, coal, wool
Marundi is the largest human kingdom in the North, descended from the ancient days of the Ravinian Empire and the reign of the revered Alaghon Dynasty.
The kingdom's name is derived from the Ruendi people; largest of the five Thalari clans, who, long ago, conquered the region and founded its capitol city of Derilath. The Clan named its newly-conquered territory, "Mar-Ruendi," which evolved over time into "Marundi."
Sadly, the kingdom is currently plagued with terror, abject poverty, and constant bloodshed. Marundi is a cold and desolate place; scarred by wars and torn by strife. Its peoples are like its climate; cold, harsh, and often unfriendly.
Today, the most troubling state of poltical affairs in Marundi is its hostile relations with the northern tribes of Hüornen barbarians. Since King Briand cannot hope to conquer his southern neighbors, he seems content to slaughter the weaker, barbarian tribes that dwell in the Northern Wastes.
As a result, the northern regions of the kingdom are quite hazardous for the local population, because of constant retaliatory raids. This long and bloody conflict has pushed the ailing kingdom deeper into decay and poverty.
More troubling still, are the close relations King Briand currently enjoys with the Dark Lord Sorimmar of Morgoth.
Marundi's eastern border is the rocky coast of the Frozen Gulf; its western borders are the frozen shores of the Myr Thalal. The Kingdoms's northern borders with the Northern Wastes are the gigantic peaks of the Sable Mountains; and its southern borders with Ammarind are the rugged Ironrock Mountains. Marundi constantly patrols its southern border with the hated rival nation of Ammarind, because of a long and bloody history of border skirmishes.
The current, despot ruler of Marundi is King Briand II, who is the 11th ruler of the feared and despised Norax Dynasty. King Briand rules the kingdom from the Bearclaw Throne, located in the Great Hall of the enormous fortress of Castle Obsidian. The Castle is located on a great pillar of black rock, overlooking the capitol; Derilath. Politically, Marundi is a monarchy, but local and administrative rule is sub-divided into 12 Duchies and 79 Baronies, all of whom are ruled by powerful Vassal Lords, chosen for one reason only: un-waveringly loyal to the Bearclaw Throne.
Prominent Marundian noble families include: House Burgoyne, House Norax, House Voskov, House Thresher, House Thornwood, House Van Essen, and House Warwick.
Marundi is a nation of great fortresses and fortified cities. It has to be, for the North has always been a hostile, unforgiving region of Corwyn. Constant threats of raids by the barbaric Hüornen tribes, as well as terrible creatures roaming the frozen north have always been constant threats to the Marundian people.
As a result, Marundi has a powerful and well-trained military. For its protection, Marundi has a large standing army of 12,000 well-trained, heavily armed soldiers. But in times of war, the Kingdom can muster well over 40,000 troops, due to large noble contingents. Because of its bloody history, Marundi has many strong fortifications including, Castle Obsidian, Icerock Keep, Kren's Keep, Norgard Keep, and Winterhold Keep.
Most of Marundian territory is made up snow-covered hills, icy valleys, and bitterly cold, windswept plains. The climate of Marundi is extremely harsh cold because of its far northern location, and the chilly winds off the mountains, gives the region a dampness that outsiders find distressing. The harsh northern climate is what makes Thalari folk so hardy.
Life & Society
Most of the peoples of Marundi struggle to survive the harsh climates of the North, the oppressive government, and the weak local economy. The largest incomes come from the sales of furs and ice, and there is little profit in either. Food and goods are scarce, so most people go without. What little money the commoners receive is taxed heavily by the king in Derilath.
As a direct result of the harsh living conditions, every year, thousands of citizens migrate either to Ammarind, or the Khorlann Steppes in search of a better life. The ones who stay are usually bitter and unfriendly to outsiders. The Marundians also live in fear of the dark. The realm is infested by terrible creatures that roam the night, such as Ice Wraiths and Remorhaz. This dangerous region does attract adventurers and young fools desiring to test their mettle against such foes. Few return to tell of their exploits.
Alaghon Mountains: (Mountains of Frost) large mountain range running northwest across Marundi until it intersects with the Sable Mountains.
Ironrock Mountains: small mountain range that forms the border between Ammarind and Marundi.
Sable Mountains: mountain range of dense black volcanic rock that stretches across the Northern Peninsula to the Myr Thalal.
Thalar Islands: small island chain in the Myr Thalal. Home to many Hüornen tribes called the Variags.
Important Sites
Bearclaw Throne: royal seat of Marundi, located within Castle Obsidian.

Local History
Marundi is a nation that is thousands of years old, with a long, and often, bloody history, that stretches back all the way to the early Fourth Age.
Long before the current kingdom of Marundi existed; its territories were part of an ancient kingdom called Thalar; the first united kingdom of the Thalari people. Thalar was founded by King Algerd Marothe; one of the famed Seven Champions of the West. Sadly, Thalar was destroyed during the Storm of the North, and the region fell into chaos for over 500 years.
Formation of the Kingdom under the Alaghon Dynasty
For over 500 years this region was in a state of complete anarchy. In the year 83/5, Empress Ravinia sent Lord Kren Alaghon into the Northern Peninsula to bring order to the region and found a Ravinian royal province there.
hich he successfully did after battling Hüornen tribes for fifteen years. The kingdom of Marundi was then founded by Kren in 98/5, and ruled by his family until 625/5. The Alaghon Dynasty ruled Marundi as part of the Ravinian Empire for 523 years, and before the Cataclysm, twenty-five monarchs sat upon the Bearclaw Throne under the Ravinian banner.
The Arctic War
Marundi was devastated by a series of orc raids during the years 435-497/5, and later, between 521-524/5, Marundi fought in the disastrous Arctic War against the Zûl and Sorimmar's orc legions. Finally, the last Alaghon king; King Beren III was slain during the Siege of Arynäe in 621/5.
Under the rule of the Haldane Dynasty
After the end of the Alaghon Dynasty, Marundi came to be ruled by the Haldane Dynasty under King Leovard, and total of twenty-eight monarchs of that family sat upon the throne. The Haldane Dynasty was corrupt and cruel, and the people of Marundi suffered greatly during its 683-year reign. The Haldane Dynasty finally ended in 674/6, when King Cerland II was slain in the Battle of Krell.
Under the rule of the Uzren Dynasty
After the War of Crows ended, the throne of Marundi was assumed by the Uzren Dynasty, under Cerland's cousin, King Leland. The Uzren family ruled Marundi for 315 years and a total of sixteen monarchs sat upon the Bearclaw Throne. The Uzren Dynasty ended in 989/6, when King Morland II was slain during a failed attempt to capture the arctic fortress of Sol-Kathad.
Under the rule of the Norax Dynasty
In the year 989/6, under extremely suspicious circumstances, the Crown of Marundi was assumed by the Norax Dynasty, under King Berand. The Norax family has ruled the kingdom for the last 258 years and a total of eleven monarchs have sat upon its Bearclaw Throne. The Norax family is petty, stubborn, and cruel, and their hold upon the North has brought misery and death to thousands.
Recent troubles with the Hüornen tribes
With the end of the Uzren line, Marundi came to be ruled by the Norax Dynasty under King Berand. Marundi had been a second-class power ever since the Cataclysm, and had been plagued by poverty, decay, and corruption for many years. This decline began to increase with the reign of the Norax kings, who ever lusted for more power and territory. Beginning in 1111/6, King Weyand ordered frequent raids into the Northern Wastes to wipe out settlements of the arctic people known as the Hüornen. The raids were successful and thousands of the Hüornen people were slaughtered, but the constant warfare brought only more misery and poverty to Marundians. Marundi's sharpest decline began 80 years ago, when, in 1167/6, Briand's great-grandfather; the Mad-King Cerland, began the disastrous War of Succession against Ammarind.
By 1169/6, Marundi was severely defeated by Ammarind and forced to cede territory and to make huge monetary reparations. To quell the popular uprising against him that began after that defeat, Cerland started another, easier war. In 1184/6, when the Hüornen tribes refused to pay even higher taxes and levees, Cerland again invaded the Northern Wastes and declared war on the helpless Hüornen tribes living there. Over the next four years, Cerland's armies caused much slaughter and misery before their final victory in what became known as the War of the Bloody Snow. In 1188/6, the war was finally ended by Cerland's son, King Berand II. Cerland died of illness in 1187/6.
Relations between Marundi and the Hüornen have been bitter ever since, and by 1188/6, the northern borders of Marundi began to be plagued with retaliatory Hüornen raids. In 1227/6, Briand's father Morland had to quell the most powerful Hüornen invasion yet, in what was called the Winter War. The Hüornen, led by war-chief Sicard, invaded Marundi and actually besieged the city of Derilath for three months, but the barbarian armies never had a chance. In late 1229/6, Morland's armies broke the siege and drove the barbarians north back over the border. A few months later, King Morland's army finally defeated the Hüornen in 1230/6 at the Battle of the Frozen Ford, but both Morland and Sicard were slain in the battle. King Briand assumed the throne after his father's death, but the victory was bitter and hollow. Even though the Hüornen were broken and Sicard slain, the Marundians dictated very harsh terms to the arctic folk. Even with a period of relative peace for the last 17 years, King Briand has still ordered frequent raids into the North to kill innocent Hüornen folk to avenge the memory of his father. King Briand firmly believes that by keeping the barbarian tribes on their knees, there will never be another uprising.

Fan Info:
THE BRAIN FROM PLANET X is a hilarious, wacky salute to both B-horror movies and musical theatre. The spoof musical was originally produced at Los Angeles City College Theatre Academy, and continued on to a successful run at The New York Musical Theatre Festival in 2007. With music and lyrics by Grammy-nominee Bruce Kimmel and book by Kimmel and screenwriter David Wechter, this sci- fi send-up has been compared to THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW and LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS.
THE BRAIN FROM PLANET X tells the story of an alien invasion, circa 1958. A Brain and its two alien cohorts, Zubrick and Yoni, arrive on Earth to take over the San Fernando Valley, starting with the happy nuclear family, the Bunsons. Little do they anticipate the wily resistance of local inventor Fred Bunson, his doting wife Joyce, and their lovely daughter Donna. But the aliens will not be deterred on their quest to take over the entire planet and destroy the family unit! Along the way, we encounter such obligatory characters as the military leader General Mills and his adjunct, Private Partz; Joyce's dying-but-clever octogenarian father, Professor Leder; and Donna's amorous beatnik boyfriend Rod. 1958 was never this much fun!
"A suburban family is forced to save the world from a band of aliens intent on taking over—all with catchy music and clever lyrics," says critic Pat O'Brien.
This bright, zany musical, complete with soft rock; 1950s jazz; patter songs; striptease music; vaudeville revue and even a socko, Broadway-style tap dance number, is sure to enthrall audiences everywhere!

Written By: Bruce Kimmel
Here are some thoughts about THE BRAIN FROM PLANET X, and some tips that may aid you. I've directed three productions of the show, each with different casts, and in each production, though the staging has remained the same, the actors all brought really interesting things to the characters, and David and I even made some adjustments to the script based on those interpretations. The fun of this show is to let your imagination run wild.
Some things we learned along the way:
THE CHARACTERSThe actors should not make fun of their characters. In a spoof, it's easy to go that route, but with this show we've found that it doesn't help the comedy at all, because the audience then has nothing to invest in or hold onto, and, as silly as it seems, we've found that it's needed. We also found that the straighter that Fred and Joyce are played, the funnier it is – straight as in that Father Knows Best and Leave It To Beaver and Robert Young and Doris Day sort of way.
Fred's a dreamer – an endlessly positive dreamer – even when he's faced with no one wanting to hear about his inventions, or worse, when he's faced with a wife who's suddenly not the wife he knew he shouldn't get too negative.
Joyce, too, is there for her husband, loves what he says, loves what he invents – he can do no wrong. Once she's alienized however, she becomes his worst nightmare. She shouldn't be played as an "alien" when she's zapped – in other words, not robotic. I like to describe her as Joyce Gone Wrong – she's still Joyce, she just isn't having any of that 1950s wife lifestyle anymore.
As for the aliens, Zubrick, Yoni, and The Brain, as outrageous as they may be, they, too, have wants, desires, and needs. They may be obvious wants, desires, and needs, but they have them. Same with Rod and Donna, General Mills, and the rest of the characters. But have fun with them, especially the aliens.
"FEEL-O-RAMA"Some specifics that may help you: setting up the Feel-O-Rama first gag. The audience member is, of course, a cast member. You'll need to save one seat for every performance, and your cast member should be dressed in a casual way, perhaps slacks or khakis and a sweater, because once he joins the actual play his clothing has to have a 1950s feel. Once the kiss is over, the cast member stays seated until the ensemble enters for the first time in the title song – at that point, he jumps out of his seat and jumps up on stage, joining his fellow cast members.
THE BRAINWe originally wrote The Brain as sort of a Borscht Belt kind of character, like a Jack Benny or a Henny Youngman – but it can be played many different ways.
In that first production, we used a huge Brain head – you never saw the actor's face at all. He wore a black robe and when he played against a black background he really did look like a floating Brain – complete with glasses. In the two other productions, because we had well-known actors playing the role, we built a brain head that allowed us to see the face of the actor. Both ways worked, and I'm sure there are other ways to do it, too. Be creative!
THE SETSAnything goes. As you probably have figured out, THE BRAIN FROM PLANET X is an affectionate send-up of cheesy 1950s sci-fi movies. Watch some of them – I recommend Plan Nine From Outer Space, The Brain From Planet Arous, Catwomen Of The Moon, and there are many others. Check out the sets. They're usually made of cardboard and spit.
In the three productions I've done, we've had three completely different kinds of sets. In the first, we were in a very large theater and our sets were fantastic – we used a large wagon for the patio of the house and that unit turned around and became the interior of the spaceship. The house side was very 1950s and realistic, the spaceship side was total cheese, with all manner of switches and gizmos and other silliness. We had other fun set pieces in that production, and it all moved very fluidly – fluidity is what you want. The show begins in limbo and then things move in and out as needed.
In the second production at the New York Musical Theatre Festival, we couldn't really have sets, so we used projections and set pieces – that worked okay, too. And in the third production for the Los Angeles Festival of New American Musicals, we were in a small theater and the set designer came up with a wall that had three doors – one for the poorly-working spaceship door, one big door that went up and down (used for the entrance of The Brain), and another door that became the entrance from the house to the patio. The wall was white and projections were used to establish where we were. It, too, worked just fine. But, anything goes. We just tried to keep the Earth stuff real, and we went nuts with the alien stuff – funky ray guns, silly switches that do nothing, a lot of gizmos that have no point at all.
COSTUMESAgain, we kept all the Earth stuff real, and had grand fun with the alien outfits. Yoni, especially, should go from her alien outfit to a series of more and more outrageous 1950s Jayne Mansfield-type costumes – leopard skin pantsuits, clinging gowns, whatever.
THE BRAIN TAPThis is one of the biggest laugh-getters in the entire show. Here are some tips: We found that older people are funnier. Younger people tend to try to be funny, and that's absolutely what you don't want. We scoped out the various audience members before the show, and during act one I would always tell Zubrick to choose the person I thought would be really uncomfortable and awkward – that's what works best, someone who'll be slightly embarrassed – or really embarrassed, the kind of person who looks like they'd be praying "not me, not me." That's the guy you want.
Also, we've written one example in the script of how to say the mark's name – if, when asked his name, he says, "Uh, Phil" then that becomes his name throughout the bit: Uh, Phil. We had one guy in New York who, when asked his name, said, "Oh, crap, they want my name." That became his name for the entire bit – "Oh, crap, they want my name is the quintessential Earth speciman." Usually people will stammer or mumble as they're telling you their name, so listen carefully and be sure to repeat that for the entire bit.
The Voice-U-Lator answers are, of course, all pre-recorded, as is the opening narration of the show, so choose an actor with a good voice to do that.
THE BANDIn the original production in the large theater, we had the band onstage, on a platform above the action – that's my favorite way to do the show. But because of space limitations, the band was off-stage for the subsequent two productions.
Anyway, those are some thoughts – basically just have FUN, but remember the show, as silly as it may seem, and as weird as it may get, has a plot and characters and you want the audience to be involved with them – spoofs are hard and we learned early on in our very first reading that a spoof wasn't enough – we needed a real plot, real stakes, and some people to root for.
Best of luck with the show, and remember: The time is nigh.

Here at The Motley Fool we believe it is crucially important to evaluate an investment on all of its merits and shortcomings. After all, taking a balanced approach to each potential investment allows you to make the best decisions when it comes to putting your hard-earned money to work. It's one of the reasons we call ourselves Foolish investors.
Over the last two weeks, we have looked at a number of catalysts and risks for the world's largest ceramic proppant manufacturer (NYSE:CRR). The list includes:
1). What's a proppant?
2). Opportunities
3). Red flags
4). Management
It can be difficult to sort out important news from all of the noise in today's investing environment. So today I will leave you with a brief list of developments to monitor over the coming months and years that can guide your research into the company.
1. Total rig count
Despite another record year of sales in 2012 — in volume and dollars — the company has struggled to prop up its share price for investors. One big reason is the slowdown in well drilling activity, which is, of course, tied to depressed natural gas prices. Unfortunately, the industry has yet to pick up after the first six months of 2013. Total rig count is down to 1,692 for onshore wells, which is a 12% drop compared to last year.
Source: EIA Note: Onshore rigs only.
You can see that the number would be much worse if not for soaring oil production. However, it is also important to consider that well activity for natural gas is heavily correlated to its price.
Source: EIA.
The good news is that oil prices should be kept aloft by major international demand from developing nations such as China. Hopefully for CARBO Ceramics Inc. (NYSE:CRR), international forces will become a driving force for natural gas once liquefied natural gas, or LNG, exports begin in the next few years. A steady outflow of natural gas to international markets will support drilling activity and production, so investors would be wise to watch for major increases in natural gas rig counts. The EIA's website has monthly tallies (link opens PDF) readily available for public consumption, although data usually lags by at least one month.
2. Industry expansion
Annual worldwide proppant use has soared from just 3 billion pounds in 2000 to more than 17 billion pounds today. The market is broken into three categories of ascending price and quality: sand, resin-coated sand, and ceramics. CARBO Ceramics Inc. (NYSE:CRR) currently possesses 1.75 billion pounds and 400 million pounds of ceramic proppant and resin-coated proppant manufacturing capacity, respectively. The company is also expanding production capacity by nearly 1 billion pounds per year by the end of the decade. That positions this titan of the industry near the head of the pack in seizing continuing worldwide growth.
While it's not likely for CARBO Ceramics Inc. (NYSE:CRR) to lose its spot atop the industry, the competition for customers is certainly heating up. The following list contains the largest ceramic proppant manufacturers worldwide, some of which are expanding operations into America's kaolin-rich Southeast.
|Country of Origin
|Major International Locations
|Saint Gobain
|Arkansas, Europe, China
|South America, Europe
|United States
Source: CARBO Ceramics SEC Filings.
The list doesn't include a growing number of Chinese manufacturers. And don't forget that these companies could also affect CARBO Ceramics Inc. (NYSE:CRR)'s international revenues. Consider that 22.5% of company's 2012 revenue came from international markets, which grew 12% compared to 2011. That compares favorably to domestic revenue, which grew less than 1% on the same basis. Seeing that only 9.3% of the company's current manufacturing capacity is located outside of the United States, I imagine international competition could also affect domestic production and expansion for the company.

My wonderful and talented friend Kate took these family pictures for us at the beach.
Getting ready for family pictures is never my favorite thing, but we got ready for these in less than an hour. Showers, selecting 'coordinating' outfits, and out the door. That's the way to do it!!
"It's the second day of otoño" Noah announced when he got home today. Hmmm...is it October I wondered? "NO mom, that means fall!" Oops. Can I get a spanish dictionary here????
The kids are LOVING school. They are making friends, learning math, and learning so much spanish I am amazed! They love their teacher, the girls have two friends from class on their soccer team, they love riding the bus home, and are doing great!
The girls have 2 soccer practices a week and usually one game. Noah is their biggest fan, but is beyond excited to FINALLY start "football skills" tomorrow night.
We've been enjoying September getting in to a school routine. Enjoy the pictures!!
Blessings! Happy otoño!!

The first day of school!
We made it!! The kids had a wonderful morning at kindergarten. Aside from Tom and I thinking school started at 9, therefore arriving 2 minutes after the 8:50 bell rang, everything went smoothly!! They came out of school saying, "Buenos Dias" and singing like crazy. They loved it!! The only disappointment in their eyes was that I picked them up today, and they don't get to ride the bus home (I'll be driving them in the morning) until tomorrow!!
After I picked them up, I was off to Hope for my first day of class. My class has doubled in size this year (from 7 to 14) and it seems to be a wonderful group of anxious to learn middle schoolers!!

Ready or not...
Here comes school. We had an amazing last week of summer vacation. We hit parks, the Binder park zoo, open houses, read 2 'chapter books' while snuggling in bed...it was perfect.

Why did you choose to become a zoologist?
It's always been clear for me that I wanted to work with animals. When I was young, I used to say that I wanted to become a "vegetarian" because I wasn't able to pronounce "veterinarian". At home, we've always had animals. Later in my life, I discovered zoos and the fact that it was possible to work up-close with wild animals in these facilities. This is when I chose the field in which I was going to study. But my passion was divided and another vocation called to be: Teaching. Both my parents are teachers and I witnessed how hard they worked their entire life and how they touched the lives of so many children! My work is the best of both worlds!
How did you start working at the Ecomuseum Zoo?
Life often provides us with interesting opportunities! I followed a Desert Ecology class at McGill University, which was taught at the time by David Rodrigue, the Executive Director of the Ecomuseum Zoo. At that moment, the zoo was looking for a zoologist to work in the education department and he felt I would be a good fit for the job and the team. I was interviewed by the department coordinator and I got the job. I went for it and have never looked back! I was of course very excited as it would allow me to work directly with animals, but I was also eager to discover the educational aspect of the job and see if I was going to be good at it. From the very beginning I saw the impact that I could have on children, and that's where I became an addict! I think that working only with animals wouldn't have the same effect on me. It's really raising awareness among people of all ages that I enjoy the most!
Is there a special memory that you could share with from your time at the zoo?
There are many! Throughout my childhood, I enjoyed many weekends in the countryside. To me, a frog is something very common. Interesting of course, but very common. Yet in my early days at the zoo, during one of my first presentations, I took out a bullfrog and introduced the kids to the species. They gave me the same reaction as if it was a lion or an elephant! Kids are super interested in nature, but they don't always have the occasion to discover it. Offering them the opportunity to connect with wildlife and nature, it's incredible. And believe it or not, we often have the same kind of amazement from adults. These are very precious moments!
Tough question! Which animal is your favorite at the zoo?
Oh boy! I can't answer that question ... I'll limit my answer to the animals that are part of the educational program and with whom I work more often. I'll have to choose Jweep, the Great-horned Owl. But I also love Novio, the Barn Owl, and the American Martens ... See, I can't pick one! I love them all!
Just one last question: with which species do you dream of working with?
Good question! I think I would choose the great marine mammals. Water is a passion for me, and they are very intelligent animals. There are still so many things that are left to be discovered about them, it's fascinating!

Hello Lovelies!
Aliquid Lacquer is having a contest for the anniversary of her indie polish brand, and this is my entry! The logo of the brand is a dog, so I stamped a little dog on my ring finger underneath a big number one, since this is their first anniversary. And in the rules it said the more glam the better so I used Maybelline Color Show Brocade Beaming Blue, and then I stamped some galaxy stars over it.
The stamping was done with Pueen 60, Wistonia W101, and Shany SH08. The black and white stamping was done with Sinful Colors Black On Black and Snow Me White.
Thanks for the visit!

Rocket launched from Lebanon into northern Israel
Israel's military says a single rocket was launched from Lebanon and landed in the northern part of the country, far out of range of most rockets launched from Gaza. Deborah Gembara reports.
A single rocket lands in northern Israel. Military officials believe it was launched from Lebanon. It hit near Kfar Yuval, a farming community near the Lebanese border. There were no casualties or damage. Hundreds of rockets have been fired into Israel from Gaza over the past four days --- in response to Israeli air strikes which have so far killed 82 Palestinians, most of them civilians. This rocket, so far north, is considered well out of range of others fired from Gaza. Lebanon has not yet commented on the incident.

For NaPoWriMo Day 21, the prompt is:
"Try to play around with writing that doesn't make formal sense, but which engages all the senses and involves dream-logic."
Credit: The Chronicle .
It's not up to you, to point out black holes,
Name the constellations, and mark each glimmering star alive or perished.
Some stars can't be named the North Star or apart of mythical stories, there constellations too;
For Never-neverland maybe imagination, but it soared, became more than a bubblegum dream.
If you've not struggled, you can't realize,
How verbs, syntax, nouns, adjectives, punctuation, character, setting, and ambience —
Connect, form a string each a crystalline sentence that aligns and meander as champagne bubbling.
Writing's not only selling New York Times novels, nor a stilted profession of the tearful unaccomplished.
Not everyone can do it, become JK Rowling or Carrol Lewis — but many succeed in unaccomplished glory.
Wonderland's not where we live because we write, the everyday is clear and time counts;
The ruby-red snarls of many 'Queen of Hearts" are far too real to avoid.
Bur, not having lived it, you can't define an accountant, a banker, an assistant, a poet alone or how words of struggling flow.
Still, wise experience nods a teacher, it creates flushed fools for judging.
Hopes and dreams aren't for the gavel;
Wasp words, those who stomp out candle light, don't define reality or illusion as they intertwine.
Hours, sweat, tears, mental blockage, palms ink-stained, and effort –to finish but a sentence, they're lived;
Writers aren't mere dreamers, simple poets or wordsmiths;
Artists decide their titles, their boundaries.
People aren't opinions, so let judgement float into words unsaid; instead, — hasten positivity.
Life's understood by all uniquely, both in practicality and summer days' swarming.
It's not formed by popular opinion, social media, a hostile or forgiving world.
It's a story that blooms and it's not for anyone to say what is or isn't,
For you're not you're opinions, and I don't define you, thus;
People are multifaceted, sharing life's uneasy ride;
So, keep your conclusions, define your passion and ambitions — not mine.
Unless you've walked in my shoes, are the hand covering mine as I jot –the nomenclature isn't yours.
It's mine, and I've been a writer since I was young,
Yet, the world remains both contentious and compassionate for any career,
I only wish the latter won, somewhere the ethereal and everyday combined in creative culture.

It has a new campaign of 8 scenarios situated in the area of modern day England and Wales, starting from the initial landing of Romans and continuing up to Boudica's rebellion. There are some gameplay related changes (e.g. units have different spotting ranges, making some of the weaker units better scouts) but the overall the gameplay experience is very familiar to veterans of original Populus Romanus.
Naturally the original game will continue to be supported as well. On that front, I'm going to make those Hannibal scenarios harder as requested by several players.

Dual-View Displays
Dual-view displays are LCD screens that use a parallax barrier technology to show two different images from the left and right angles of the same screen. Applications allow drivers to view information that differs from what the passenger can see. For example, a driver may be able to see a scene captured by a rearview camera, while the passenger views a DVD.
