TULSA, Okla. (AP) - Police in Tulsa will soon be able to track sales at pawnshops though a new online system.
The Business Watch International regional system is expected to be in operation by the end of June.
Sgt. Brandon Watkins says the system could increase the amount of stolen property recovered from pawnshops by 300 percent.
Under the current system pawnshops e-mail or mail to police the records of every pawnshop transaction and the information is entered into a police tracking system.
With the new system pawnshops will enter information about each sale into their computers with the Business Watch International software and police will be able to get the data immediately.

Editor: The St. Augustine Record published an article on April 20 about the importance of sexual assault awareness. During April the Betty Griffin House Sexual Assault Recovery Program collaborates with other agencies in our community by hosting various events throughout the county for Sexual Assault Awareness month. Our main goal in April, as it is throughout the year, is to spread the message that sexual assault is never the victim's fault. Many victims are led to believe that they are at fault and therefore, fail to come forward to seek help after a rape occurs.
According to the U.S. Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Statistics, rape continues to be the least reported violent crime: 30.5 percent, less than 1/3 of all sexual assaults are reported.
The State Certified Sexual Assault Recovery Program provided by the Betty Griffin House offers many services for victims, including a private, professional Rape Crisis Unit where exams are available whether the victim wants to report or not. Counseling, advocacy, and information on victim's rights are also part of the services available to victims of sexual assault whether the victimization happened a day ago or long ago. All services are free of charge and can be accessed by calling the Betty Griffin House hotline at 904-824-1555.
The one thing we would like victims to know is that, "If you have been the victim of sexual violence, you do not have to be alone any more. We are here to help. Break the Silence. Talk About It." Call 904-824-1555.

Liverpool Message Board
The yahoo transfer rumours section keeps linking us with Bendtner from arsenal.
Anyone heard anything along this line?
Would he be a valuable inclusion to our strike force? I think yes if francenal were willing to let him go for a reasonable fee.
I also think walcott would be a better pick up - again if francenal were willing to let him go.
Maybe with the sorts of figures people are bandying around about Villa, Silva etc we could save a few quid and get a couple of "experienced" epl players instead. I reckon those two and maybe a good left sided player may just about see us right for next season. Pity about losing Alonso and Riise in the process, though - good back ups, especially Alonso.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
I really hope not ! Bendtner isn't the player we need right now ! I don't rate him at all !! Put the money towards a better partner for Fernando !!!!
I think walcott would be a good buy but we cant afford the 10 - 12 mil i think aresenal would want (at a minimum) and he would not be one for starting the majority of games just yet and I think due to our smaller budget (than last year) we need buy for the here and now, unless it is for nominal fees.
I also dont wenger would be willing to let him go, especially after his amazing run against us last season in the champions league, the boys gonna be sensational when hes older, i dont think hes even 20 yet!
With regards to bendter, yes he could be a good aquisition, as long as he understands he is only going to a bit part player, which i cant see as I think he will only leave arsenal for more first team football.
Definetly better than Voronin though!!!!
- 4 Replies to DANIEL B
What i am saying ajay is that walcott still isn't ready to play the majority of games, and when it comes to the big money moves we want players who are for the here and now.
I am not saying who this person should be, but i know walcott is not readymaybe a year or two.
I would love for us to huy him but the we dont the have cash to spend that much on someone that raw...unfortunately.
If we can't aford 10-12m to buy england's best winger how on earth are we going to buy Silva, Villa and co?
I really think all we needed to make last year's squad really competitive was another full back or two - and we seem to have already signed at least one - and a left sided midfielder/winger. Some are calling for a right winger, too.
I believe our strike force of Babel, Torres, Crouch and Kuyt can do the job if they are allowed to play as just strikers, not wingers.
So, we need a winger on each side of the park for when the full backs can't play overlap and provide the width. I personally like Pennant and i think given match time he will do the job for us. Many others think he should go. His obvious replacement, in my mind, has to be Walcott.
Now all we need is a left mid and/or left wing. I don't think Barry is the man for us. I rather liked Zhirkov in the Euro games for Russia. I also like Petrov at Man C if they would let him go - very good at getting past defenders, just what we need.
So, 2 left side players to buy, maybe 3 if you really want Pennant to go and replace him with Walcott.
How much will Silva, Villa etc cost? Compared to these 3?
dsteer_lfc_68 dsteer_lfc_68 Jun 25, 2008 00:21 Flag
I'd love to see Walcott in Red at Anfield. The lad has been a Liverpool fan since he was a kid (I know he's still a kid), so could be great all round, if only Wenger would let us have him.

I thought syphilis was "the French disease."
But Dan, you're only focusing on the negative and completely ignoring the 350 million Americans who didn't get chlamydia! And all thanks to Abstience Education!
Correction: "Abstinence Only Edumacation."
Rep. Waxman's investigation into "abstinence-only" education found one program teaching that "sweat and tears can transmit HIV." Obviously, the increase in the STD rates comes from life imitating education.
Abstinence education is not just bad, it increases unwanted pregnancies and abortions, in addition to STDs.
That said, many male carriers of Chlamydia don't know they were infected by their female partners, especially if they got it on after a Christian music event or revival ...
Just another example of the moral and intellectual bankruptcy of the Bushies and everything they stand for.
Will the people wake up in '08 and throw the bastards out? Don't be too surprised if they don't. Sadly, I think P.T. Barnum was all too right about us.
Abstinence education kills brain cells. Why not babies as well?
this must be a falsehood. Everyone knows that the 60's and 70's were the height of social diseases. It was Carter's fault, mostly.
I had no idea! Who are these people that are having sex? And I'm sure NONE of these people are in a sanctified holier-than-your-trash marriage. Only holy marriage is the protection from these diseases. Now that I'm married I don't get anything not even a cold.
#1, historically, syphilis is referred to as the disease of a nation's enemy. French disease, German disease, Italian disease. The Dutch called it the Portugese disease.
Slutty dirty Portugese.
So are we supposed to call syphilis the Saudi disease, then?
Woo-hoo! We're Number ONE!
In your FACE, Brazil & Indonesia!
To you, my heart cries out "Chlamydia!"
While it's sad news that measured rates have increased, the article clearly states that "[CDC officials] think the [chlamydia record] is largely a result of better and more intensive screening."
Also, the headline is sensationalist. (I thought Dan looked down on that sort of thing, but I guess not.) It is the per capita rate that is most pertinent, and from the numbers given in the article it is obvious that the per capita rate for gonorrhea in 1978 was much, much higher than this 'record'.
The only real news that I could see is that gonorrhea and syphilis per capita rates have gone up.
re#14: From the actual CDC report (http://www.cdc.gov/std/stats/toc2006.htm), not the news story:
"The national rate of reported chlamydia in 2006 was 347.8 cases per 100,000 population, an increase of 5.6 percent from 2005 (329.4). The increases in reported cases and rates likely reflect the continued expansion of screening efforts and increased use of more sensitive diagnostic tests; however, the continued increases may also reflect an actual increase in infections."
Click on "Figures in the National Profile." Note Fig. 8, the percentage of women tested who have ever had the disease (have antibodies to it), has increased slowly but steadily since 2000. And Fig. 9, showing that data by state, suggests that chlamydia seems to be a red-state disease.
The gonorrhea rate has indeed come down since '78 (and syphilis since the 40's). The news story is that the current gonorrhea increase is primarily of drug-resistant gonorrhea that cipro can't treat - scary.
Overall, the US has 10 times the STD rate of Northern Europe. We can do a lot better. Abstinence is great for those who can do it; but that simply is not the majority of human beings. Teaching only abstinence is short-changing most kids, with predictable results.
#10 - That's pretty ironic that "syphilis is referred to as the disease of a nation's enemy", since so many royal families around the world carry a genetic strain of syphilis. It's the enemy within. It's easily cured nowadays, but it's still a great metaphor for monarchs.
There's a super strain of The Clap? Holy. Fucking. Shit.
I just got my annual HIV/STD tests back a week ago, and I"m still HIV negative and STD-free. And I'm not exactly virginal; I'm 41 and I've been plenty sexually active for longer than most of you have been alive.
I don't know, honestly, if sexually-transmitted diseases are a matter of statistical probability, or good judgment. But I suspect there's danger in saying it's exclusively one or the other. I tend to operate under the assumption, wrong or not, that HIV and STDs are generally easy to avoid--provided to adhere to the rules of safer sex.
So I thougth I had seen a stat about it increasing at the greatest rate in the Detroit area, but a quick google search says that it's increasing the most in the south.
But according to the idiot author of the 'The Abstinence Teacher' (Tom Perrotta), high school health teachers don't have an impact at all upon high school students. Specifically he notes how teens are still sexually active even with a abstinence only education. According to him, health educators can't influence the kinds of issues noted.
Yay, USA #1 (in STDs)

Tuning in the world of Internet radio
Did you think the Internet was out of revolutions? With Internet radio, anyone can be a broadcaster. If you want to start broadcasting or podcasting, or even if you're just looking for the perfect station, check out this month's Internet Radio cover story.
Once upon a time, the young and old gathered by the radio to hear news, opinions, humor, and music from far away. Everyone knew that anything worth knowing was happening somewhere on the radio, and you could travel around the world just by turning your dial. But radio fell on hard times with the rise of television, settling into a narrower niche for sports fans, commuters, and the teenage pop music crowd. The medium still had meaning for those who listened, but the promise of radio as a magical tool to make the world smaller had worn away.

I've created two custom post types: Clients and Testimonials. I'd like to display the testimonial from Client A on the post for Client A, but also include it in a page of "All Testimonials"
I'm new to WordPress and thought there might be some way to "relate" two custom post types, but I also might be making this a lot harder than it needs to be. I looked for a plugin that would display the testimonial in the sidebar (perhaps a custom field?) and found Widget Logic, but I don't know how to pull the testimonial content into the widget.
Any help would be appreciated. I've searched for answers but I don't think I know the right language to use because I'm not finding much and I think this is a fairly common scenario.

EXCL. PREVIEW: "Hal Jordan & the Green Lantern Corps" #1 Enforces 'Sinestro's Law'
Comic Books
Comics | Novelist Jonathan Lethem is the guest editor for this year's Best American Comics collection, the first to come from outside the comics realm. Series editor Bill Kartalopoulos says he was "amazing": "He clearly knows a lot about comics and cartooning. His novels draw on his lifelong love of comic books, he's written Omega the Unknown for Marvel, and he's more than familiar with the historical and contemporary landmarks in comics. But as someone who's not 'from' the comics field he brings an entirely fresh perspective to the material from the past year that we considered for the book. He doesn't bring any baggage to the table about who 'should' be included in this volume based on status or popularity or currency. Comics can be so insular sometimes, so we're lucky to have this kind of attention from someone like Jonathan." [Publishers Weekly]
Editor Greg Sadowski's new Fantagraphics book, Supermen! The First Wave of Comic Book Heroes 1936-1941, is a spectacular snapshot of a historical period long before comic book company events, crossovers and alternate covers or universes. As detailed by the publisher: "The enduring cultural phenomenon of comic book heroes was invented in the late 1930s by a talented and hungry group of artists and writers barely out of their teens, flying by the seat of their pants to create something new, exciting, and above all profitable. The iconography and mythology they created flourishes to this day in comic books, video, movies, fine art, advertising, and practically all other media. Supermen! collects the best and the brightest of this first generation, including Jack Cole, Will Eisner, Bill Everett, Lou Fine, Fletcher Hanks, Jack Kirby, Jerry Siegel, Joe Shuster, and Basil Wolverton." The book sports a foreword by Jonathan Lethem. My thanks to Sadowski for his willingness to discuss his editorial approach on this project and after learning some of what did not make the first volume, I look forward to seeing a second volume down the road as time and other logistics permit. Fantagraphics also offers folks the chance to download an "11-page PDF excerpt (7.4 MB) featuring an entire story by Will Eisner and Lou Fine starring The Flame!"
Tim O'Shea: How did the foreword by Jonathan Lethem come about?
Greg Sadowski: Someone at Fantagraphics approached him, and Jonathan really came thorough – his foreword starts things off beautifully.

(HOLLYWOOD, CA) -- Britney Rears is coming to a city near you! 'Britney Rears' Joins LFP Family VCA Signs Distribution Deal W/ X-Play for March release.
X-Play, the production company owned by Jeff Mullen and Scott David has entered into a distribution deal with LFP's VCA label for the debut of 'Britney Rears'.
'Britney Rears: Wild Back Stage Sex Party' is set for a March 8th release and hopes are sky high following a successful introduction of Britney to fans and media at the VCA booth at the recent AEE in Las Vegas.
"It was apparent right from the start that this was a winning project as fans lined up to meet Britney where she had fun posing for photos and meeting members of the media", stated Jeff Mullen who also is president of media & marketing services company All Media Play.
"Howard Stern was talking about her this past week on his radio show which is a good thing", Mullen remarked.
The lifestyle movie features Britney with her sexy girlfriends doing what superstars do naturally. Limos, private Gulfstream jets, beautiful mansions, tour busses, concert footage and six hot, youthful hardcore sex scenes are packed into an appealing package that has all of the indications of becoming a hugely successful title.
The project first came to LFP's attention when director of licensing Chris Camacho heard the Britney Rears original music theme song.
"Jeff Mullen is a rising businessman who has a really amazing background in pop music, and the musical theme was really catchy and made us take a closer look at the project", remarked Camacho. "One of the reasons for us doing the deal with X-Play is because of the intangibles they bring to the table with the way they hustle and make things happen," "The fact that Britney is young, cute and having great sex sealed the deal," continued Camacho.
Britney Rears will be embarking on a national in-store tour that will bring her directly to the fans starting in March.
The tongue in cheek novelty style theme song is only one part of the marketing plan for Britney Rears, but it will be an interesting component of the overall campaign led by X-Play, VCA and All Media Play.
PG versions of the Britney music theme will be distributed to radio stations and peer to peer music swapping services to increase awareness in this project.
"We're having fun with 'Britney' and our potential audience is worldwide. We will market full force including some big VCA advertising including the full page ad in the February issue of AVN", Mullen remarks.
Peter Reynolds, VP of sales and marketing for VCA Pictures commented, "I really love this project. Britney is a knockout and this is the total package. We're going to have some fun with this one".

By day, I'm a mild-mannered museum worker, laboring for truth, justice, and item-level location tracking. By night, I'm an obsessive crocheter who falls asleep thinking about charts and colorways and stripe patterns.
When I first started crocheting, I spent a lot of time buying into the myths about what crochet could and couldn't do (and worse, about what I couldn't and couldn't do). Several uninspired scarves and a disastrous ripple afghan later, I decided that was a boring attitude to take, and I'd have a lot more fun (and produce better work) if I just made what I wanted to make and figured it out as I went along. Several years down the road, I now love crochet more than ever, and I'm so excited to be along for the ride as it goes in new and interesting directions.
My rock band will be called the Yarn-Bombing Hooligans. I don't expect that I will survive the zombie apocalypse.
The robot apocalypse has never looked so appealing. Prepare your kitchen for our robot overlords with this double-sided tapestry crochet potholder. It's cute and definitely functional--crocheted at a tight gauge in 100% cotton yarn, and it'll be a workhorse.
This pattern is also a great stashbuster--it only takes about 70 yards (65 meters) of each main color, plus 10 yards of a third color for the border. Gauge is unimportant as long as the fabric produced is sufficiently tight.
This pattern is suitable for advanced beginners. Chains, single crochet, and slip stitch are the only stitches used, but a familiarity with tapestry crochet color changes is recommended. The pattern includes basic written instructions and the robot is fully charted.
And of course, there's no need to limit yourself to potholders--you can use the robot chart in any crochet project! Scarves, kids' sweaters, bags, you name it--what wouldn't look better adorned with a friendly robot?
You're welcome to sell what you make from this pattern, though I would appreciate credit as the pattern designer. You may NOT sell, copy, or otherwise redistribute the pattern itself, in either electronic or hard-copy form.
gauge is not critical for this project--just be sure to work tightly to make a nice thick fabric

When you are planning for the purchase of a heating and air conditioning system, here are some tips.
Generally, most of us make a huge investment on HVAC systems. This is why the decision about the purchase of the right heating and cooling system is an important decision that should be made carefully. You will have a lot of questions in mind, before actually spending on HVAC equipment and so to help you out, here are some tips from experts in this industry, so that you can make an informed decision.
Is it essential to invest in an HVAC System?
The fact to remember here is that a central heating and air conditioning system in your home in addition to providing you the appropriate level of comfort will also help in maintenance of air quality within your home, such that your family can lead a healthy life. So, without any doubt, investing in such a system can be worth your money.
Repair or replacement:
If the heating and cooling system in your house is not functioning properly, you might have confusion between repair and replacement. The general rule you can follow here is to opt for a replacement, if the cost of repair is nearly 30% of the cost of a new system. In addition, if you've noticed your energy bills have gotten higher over the past couple years just because your system has become old, you can opt for replacement rather than repairs.
How can you save on the new system?
About 44% of your home's energy bill is consumed by heating and air conditioning systems. But, as compared to a 10-year system, a unit with energy-star rating will bring 60% more energy efficiency.
Selecting the right HVAC contractor:
When you choose a contractor, be careful choosing by the cheapest price, be sure to check reviews online so you can feel confident about getting the most experienced contractor that can meet your requirements. Such a contractor would have the right training and EPA certified, which will be an added advantage when it comes to maintenance of the system.
Reuse of components from existing system:
When you decide for repairs, you might be thinking whether some of the components can be reused rather than replacing each and every component. Here, the HVAC contractor can provide you the details about the parts to be replaced and that can be kept. Honest contractors will only replace a part if it's absolutely necessary.
When you are considering the thermostat that can be used on your system, you can opt for a programmable thermostat for an energy-saving, accurate and dependable performance. Most programmable Tstats will have four time settings to program, wake/leave/return/sleep.
How to improve the quality of indoor air?
You might be surprised to know that as compared to outdoor air, the indoor air in your house might be 5-100 times more polluted. But, you can improve the quality of indoor air with the help of high efficiency air filter technologies, UV lights, ventilation systems, dehumidifiers and humidifiers.
So, with these tips from experts, you can decide on repairs or replacement. These tips will also help you when you are planning to purchase a new heating and air conditioning system for your home.

Friend asks if race motivated juvenile detention center firings
Published: Thursday, May 14, 2009 at 12:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, May 14, 2009 at 12:39 p.m.
HOUMA A friend of two fired Juvenile Detention Center employees criticized Terrebonne government officials Wednesday for what she characterized as unjust, racially motivated terminations of workers accused of sexual misconduct with female inmates.
Parish President Michel Claudet dismissed the suggestion that race was involved in the decision-making process, after Hall Street resident Katherine Batson voiced her concerns at a Parish Council meeting Wednesday night.
Batson, a friend of former employees Darwin Brown and Floyd Howard, said she believes her friends are innocent and outstanding citizens.
My thing is that people in higher places than some of the other workers here is given different treatment and I want to know why, Batson said. Why is our black people treated the way they are being treated?
I would like Mr. Claudet to answer that for me.
Race does not have any factor in any decision that was made nor is it a factor in his administration, Claudet said.
Seven employees have been arrested since April in connection with allegations that detention center workers had sex or engaged in sexual misconduct with female juvenile inmates in exchange for favors, such as snacks and phone time, over the past year.
Batson called the firings of her friends, who are black, unfair and unjust compared with treatment of Houma Police Chief Pat Boudreaux, who is white.
Boudreaux has been on paid leave after allegations of sexual harassment, misuse of department equipment and failure to report a dent to his police car surfaced almost a year ago. The sexual-harassment claims by four female police employees are being heard through a civil suit.
The difference between the two situations Batson compared, Claudet said, is that the police chiefs leave has to do with a civil-court case. The firings at the juvenile center involve criminal investigations. Since the center case affects employees, juveniles and criminal investigations, the parish government isnt going to comment on the matter, he added.
I had no idea if these individuals were black or white, Claudet said. We made the decisions based upon the facts as presented to us. And never once did I know who they were until they appeared in the newspaper.
Contacted after the meeting, Batson said she didnt feel her questions were answered and she will come to the council again and bring others.
Two other residents who requested to address the council did not attend. As of Tuesday, the number of detention center employee arrests totaled seven.
n Chadwick Vincent Griffin, 35, 156 Duplantis St., Thibodaux, malfeasance in office.
n John Tyrell Gathen, 27, 204 Bisland St., Houma, molestation of a juvenile and sexual malfeasance in prison.
n Darrin Anthony Carter, 38, 820 Cottage Mill Lane, Houma, molestation of a juvenile and malfeasance in prison.
n Sgt. Floyd Wesley Howard, 49, 1317 Division Ave., Houma, molestation of a juvenile, indecent behavior with a juvenile and malfeasance in office.
n Darwin Jamal Brown, 23, 159 Elmira Court, Thibodaux, two counts of malfeasance in office, molestation of a juvenile and three counts of indecent behavior with a juvenile.
n Tiffani Denin Blakemore, 36, 3600 Friendswood Drive, Houma, obstruction of justice. She is accused of threatening one of the teenage inmates to discourage her from cooperating with detectives in the investigation.
n Lt. Angelo Vickers, 47, 390 Monarch Drive, Houma, was the first arrested. He is charged with three counts each of molestation and malfeasance after inmates of the detention center alleged they had sexual contact with him. Vickers led a night security shift at the center.

MEd in Differentiated Instruction - Master of Education Online
Visit us on our Facebook page!
Graceland University is proud to offer an online Master of Education in Differentiated Instruction based on the work of Dr. Carol Ann Tomlinson. Dr. Tomlinson, who appears as a video instructor in several of the program's courses, is a world-renowned expert in differentiated instruction and assessment strategies and techniques. Dr. Tomlinson is author of "The Differentiated Classroom: Responding to the Needs of All Learners," "How to Differentiate Instruction in Mixed-Ability Classrooms," and "Fulfilling the Promise of the Differentiated Classroom: Strategies and Tools for Responsive Teaching." This program has six start dates throughout the year.
Also featured in the differentiated instruction online program is Dr. William Glasser, author of several books on education, including, "Choice Theory," "The Quality School Teacher" and "Every Student Can Succeed." Dr. Glasser's educational approach fosters instructional approaches, like differentiated instruction examples that meet student's individual needs and strengths.
This is the first Master of Education program to combine the ideas of Tomlinson's differentiated instruction and Glasser's concepts into a comprehensive course of study, which helps teachers meet the needs of an increasingly diverse student population within the context of today's challenging standards-based curriculum.
Strategies for differentiated instruction covered in the master's program include pre-assessment of learning styles and preferences, monitoring and managing student learning, modifying lessons based on student readiness, tiered instruction, and flexible grouping and authentic assessment. The program is open to all certificated K–12 teachers who are currently teaching. The program is video- and online-based, and there are no residency requirements.
A word from our Differentiated Instruction (DI) Lead Instructor, Debbi Leialoha, PhD, Program Chair MEd Differentiated Instruction Emphasis
Creating and facilitating delivery of our online education programs has been my major focus during my sojourn at Graceland University. I arrived at Graceland after being a K-12 educator in both special and general education settings for 24 years. As Program Chair of the Differentiated Instruction (DI) emphasis, it is exciting to meet a cross section of our nation's teachers and have the opportunity to interface with their practice. I can well remember the struggles I experienced having a wide range of students with varied abilities and interests. It was challenging to meet the learning needs of all my students.
Differentiated instruction is a teaching model in which teachers proactively modify curriculum, instruction and assessment to address the needs of individual students and/or small groups of students to maximize the learning opportunities for each student in the classroom. Adjusting content, process and products in light of a student's readiness, interests and learning profile allows teaching to start where the kids are! Graceland's MEd in Differentiated Instruction allows you to hear firsthand (through our DVD materials) the expertise and guidance of Dr. Carol Ann Tomlinson, the ultimate guru on this topic.
Dr. Tomlinson poses three questions when thinking about how to differentiate instruction: What is the teacher differentiating? How is the teacher differentiating? Why is the teacher differentiating?
Whether you have struggling or advanced learners in your classroom, learning is maximized when knowledge is organized, students are involved in the learning process, assessments are robust and varied, and students feel their basic needs are being met.
Will the students who fill your classroom seats be accepted from his or her point of entry into the curriculum? Will you understand and respond to the idea that our students need us in different ways? The promotion of a successful classroom is an admirable goal that will take the endeavors of all stakeholders. One of the most satisfying elements of facilitating courses in this program is the opportunity to dialogue with teachers, such as you, about teaching and learning.
What can this degree do for you? Our graduate faculty keep a strong connection with our alumni. We frequently hear from our educators that not only has their knowledge enriched their own practice, but also of their school colleagues. Would you like to learn more? I would look forward to corresponding with you. I can be reached at email@example.com.

"Ghostbusters": 11 Things the Sequel Needs to Do to Succeed
Here is the latest cool comic book moment in our year-long look at one cool comic book moment a day (in no particular order whatsoever)! Here's the archive of the moments posted so far!
Today, we take a look at a nifty scene from Batman: Year One.
I'm sure we'll see plenty of moments from Batman: Year One before this year is out, so for the first moment from the storyline, I've decided to go a little bit off the beaten path (as there are a lot more famous moments from the story than this one).
In Batman #405, by Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli, we see the beginning of Batman's war on crime.
He serves notice on the crooks of the city (both official criminals and politicians/criminals) in this amazing sequence…
What an amazing sequence, with "the" moment being either Batman's speech or the actual extinguishing of the flame.
Although, here's a neat little "epilogue," of sorts, from the next page.
Fantastic. I'm going to be (one of) the first to say the inevitable: what the hell happened to Frank Miller? How do you go from here to All Star Batman and Robin?
I wish this scene made it into "Batman Begins"…
It's one of my favorite moments, too. I loved the way Miller/Mazzucchelli used the black panels throughout the story.
dr matt > Yes, it's really sad. Maybe growing older + 9/11 + not caring anymore about characters he doesn't own contributed to make Frank Miller the way he is today.
However, Miller's work has always been satirical/grotesque. For example, DKR could be perceived as "Frank Miller gets away with (Batman's) murder".
Still one of the best written and best looking books ever. And I still prefer the original colouring to the recolouring done for the TPB
This is one of THE definitive Batman moments for me. It sends chills down my spine every time I see it.
Dr, Matt,
How do you go from this to All Star? You subtract Mazzucchelli, that's how.
That shrouded image of Batman framed by the hole in the wall and smoke swirling around him is awesome.
Still gives me goosebumps everytime I read it. "Classic" indeed.
One of my all time favorite comic book moments. I'm not a really big Batman fan, but Year One is one of the finest comic book stories I've ever read. Am I the only one who greatly prefers this to The Dark Knight Returns?
Mazzucchelli is at the top of his game here. The perfect blend of his own style and Toth.
I love this comic so much that I got my mom to read it. Hey, she's the one that asked "What is it that you love so much about these things?". She liked it ok, never asked for another one though…
@DanCJ – I've only got one of the single issues,and it's been a long time since I looked at it. The TPB I have is from the late 80's early 90's, the coloring seemed pretty good to me, did they recolor it more recently. Did Richmond Lewis do it? – Thx
that is one of the moments i liked about batman year one. frank miller other story that proves he gets the dark knight and also shows what batman was like starting out giving notice that a new sheriff is in gotham
Frank Miller is still a genius – but now his only interest in Batman is for self-satirical purposes. As a satire, "All-Star Batman" is very good; but that wasn't what DC had promised the series would be, and many fans never warmed up to the biting satire that Miller served.
I personally enjoy seeing what a de-glamourized Batman would REALLY be like, which is the whole point of "All-Star Batman"… he would be a borderline psycho, brutal and completely antisocial. Once I figured out what Miller was going for with the series, everything made sense. It's not for everybody's tastes, granted, but it's still a solid satirical series.
I always liked this sequence (and the whole of Year One) because it shows how much preparation goes into Batman making it look effortless. I gotta sneak in, knock out the guards, fix the spotlight, etc….. brilliant.
I miss non-crazy Frank Miller.
I can't pinpoint a "moment." All of page 14 for me. Although the epilogue was hilarious!
Still one of the best Batman stories ever told….I loved how the new films sorta took a cue from this series in how to treat Gordon as a character.
"As a satire, "All-Star Batman" is very good; but that wasn't what DC had promised the series would be, and many fans never warmed up to the biting satire that Miller served."
I immediately recognised it as satire, but the whole "Batman if he was REAL" got played out about halfway into the first volume of The Authority. It would've been a great idea in 1995 – and timelier, as DC was in the middle of their period of deconstructing Miller's vision of Batman in DKR then – but, really, how many "Batman is really a psychopath" plays on the character do we need?
('sides, I always thoought the point was that it was acknowledged that 99.99999% of the population would have gone insane, but that Bruce's willpower keeps him somewhat stable and functional. And that's Batman's superpower.)
"Am I the only one who greatly prefers this to The Dark Knight Returns?"
"What an amazing sequence, with "the" moment being either Batman's speech or the actual extinguishing of the flame."
It is both–since they are interconnected–great choice for a moment.
@DanCJ – I've only got one of the single issues,and it's been a long time since I looked at it. The TPB I have is from the late 80's early 90's, the coloring seemed pretty good to me, did they recolor it more recently. Did Richmond Lewis do it? – Thx
I think there's only one version of the colouring in the TPB version so you'll be looking at the same one as me. The higher production values of the colouring in the TPB are nicer, but I prefer the colour choices in the issues. Also the colourist in teh TPB added patterns to wallpaper and duvet covers a couple of times which I find very jarring.
[…] thought: how could would it have been if this scene made it into BATMAN BEGINS? Oooh, hey – if DC needs an idea for a straight-to-video animated trilogy that would rake in […]
It's so interesting seeing David Mazzucchelli's style here when placed next to "Born Again". I love how he adapts his style to fit both stories.

Number of illegal vendors in Dubai increase during Ramadan
Dubai: Local markets are witnessing an increased number of vendors engaged in selling food products without obtaining the required permissions. Among the markets most commonly targeted by the illegal vendors are Al Quoz, Satwa and Naif.
More than 55 people have been caught this year during the month of Ramadan for selling food products without obtaining the required permissions, a senior Dubai Municipality official told Gulf News. While the food sold by them is cheaper than market prices, it could be highly unsafe to consume, the official said.
Those engaged in the activity were issued a warning.
"Such activity increases a lot during Ramadan. We have been actively conducting inspections in areas like Al Quoz, Satwa and Naif where we found these people selling samosas, pakodas, kaboos and foodstuff without permission. During the holy month, they think they can make good money as demand rises and, hence, engage in selling. Within this month we caught some 55 people though we did not impose fines right away because we want them to understand the seriousness of the issue and not adopt improper ways to do things. The fine starts from Dh500 but our aim is not to fine but to prevent such activities," said Khalid Suletin, Head of the Environment Emergency Department of Dubai Municipality.
The month of Ramadan is considered a lucrative opportunity by many who engage in selling products, particularly food items. As the food items sold by these vendors are much cheaper than market rates, they manage to finish their sales rapidly in the evening. The most commonly sold items are foodstuff which is easy to carry such as samosas, pakodas, rotis and kaboos, apart from fruits and vegetables.
"I do not know where these watermelons have come from but they are quite cheap, I will not be able to afford it from a supermarket," said a blue collar worker in Al Quoz.
Most of these vendors are small shop owners or individuals wanting to make some extra money due to high demand at this time of the year. However, Suletin pointed out as they do not really care about the quality of the food that they sell, it could be dangerous to eat the food they sell.
"Probably they make it at home or somewhere in the morning and come to sell it in the evening. They would not check if the food item is spoilt or is in a condition good enough to eat. We have found that sometimes the fruits and vegetables they sell are rotten," he said.

New Video:Teeto Ceemos - Missed Called (NONI Freestyle)
2012 is shaping up to be a big year for Nigerian Rap music. TEETO CEEMOS IS BACK! As he gears up to release his official first single in April, off of his still untitled Freshboy Entertainment debut album slated for release later this year, Mr. Ceemos hits us with a viral video of his freestyle over Samklef's ''NONI'' instrumental which was recorded in 2011.
The IGHO-directed viral video sees Teeto Ceemos in his element as he drops hard-hitting bars and witty punchlines for three minutes straight – without a hook - over Samklef's 2011 smash hit, "Noni". Showing the lyrical dexterities, wordplay and flow that have kept him at the upper echelons of Nigerian Hip-Hop Music, Teeto gives us just a glimpse of what to expect from his debut album dropping later this year.
Introducing Teni
Teni is a jazz singer and composer who makes afrosoul upon hearing her smoky and elegant funk, somewhat restrained and stripped back in a time when we are more used to over-emoting, one is immediately reminded of Sade Adu.
Teni was living in Lagos, Nigeria, until recently, leading her ten piece band the Afro-Renaissance, and also appearing from time to time with Seun Kuti and the Egypt 80, Felas' original band. She is set to release the debut single from her forthcoming album "Afrodisiac," also titled "Afrodisiac," which features legendary master drummer and afrobeat co-creator Tony Allen on live drums and has a beautifully sensual music video that was viewed over 100,000 times on Youtube in just three months.
With an album of truly classic, rootsy afrosoul music that is ten years in the making. Teni is set to revolutionize music with an epic self-produced sound that transcends genres from afrobeat, jazz and the blues to soul and reggae is inspired by eclectic influences from Fela Kuti to Marvin Gaye and Nina Simone and has a strong, truly timeless message. One Love! Africa unite! Coming out later in 2012.
Some of her songs, including new dance track, Your Love is The Key and debut single Afrodisiac can be downloaded HERE

NaijaStories.com Launches First Anthology
The 30 stories featured in this anthology were all originally published on this website between March 2010 and March 2011.
These are stories about us or about our neighbours or something we've encountered in the news. They are what our friends tell us, their pain and joy, their passion and rage, their yearning and their cry against injustice. I enjoyed lots of the stories not just because of their simplicity and brevity but also for freshness they bring to storytelling and public discourse.
- Sylva Nze Ifedigbo. (Author, The Funeral Did Not End)
Here we are, with our abortions, our bereavement, our lust, our petty showdowns, our pederasts, our In-Law wahala, our problems chatting up girls in the diaspora, our memories of childhood, our fights, our incest, our love, our examination stress, our metafictional accounts, our encounters with university campus cults, our broken families, our… well, you get the idea. We rob banks, but we also eat salty beans to show our children we love them.
- Tade Thompson (Writer/Editor)
These short stories are not constrained by the need to attain fame. They all are, first of all, good works written with sharp perspectives that are related to various societal issues. There is a unique allure in every story. They have not been sifted through a Western colander. Support this anthology and show that there is a worthiness of effort in putting it together. This anthology is indeed the birth of writers that have newly been empowered. Go get a copy for yourself.

Mirror boy Producer Obi Emelonye talks love life, Why He gave one kidney away, new movie "Last flight to abuja"
Nothing will give one a clue that the man most Nollywood's stakeholders have come to love and respect, survives on one kidney. Nobody would even believe it since he exercises and plays football regularly. But then, the reality is that popular filmmaker and winner of The Sun's Creative Man of the Year award, Obi Emelonye is living with one kidney instead of two. In an exclusive interview with Entertainer, the producer of 'Mirror Boy' sheds light on how giving away his kidney to his sibling has altered the course of his life. Excerpts:
How does it feel to win The Sun's Creative Man of the Year award, the first of its kind, after just a year of coming into the public consciousness?
We are all God's creatures and I believe He guides our path, and He directs our affairs in this journey of life. So, it is not really our choice, and in the popular Nigerian parlance, "God's time is the best". Actually, it is not something that I chose to happen or something that I fought for to happen, it is something that has happened and I give God the glory.

"From the window to the wall, me a tap her easy like ball…" are everyone's favourite lyrics in Iceprince's Magician. Yung L has been singing for a while now, top artist in Jos, he recently moved to Lagos to pursue his passion for music.
He manages to seduce new listeners to his lyrical play on words. He even manages to play with his lips at the end of this song, when you hear the flute, he is actually blowing through his lips. Popular for being one of Iceprince's bredren – the mob you see come through clubs – Yung L is a dynamic singer, with a new take on the Nigerian/African sound.
The mix of Chopstix on deck, and Yung L on the vocals and "flute" is really a smooth sexy international sound that still has the Naija vibe.
Grip Music really is sweet music…Enjoy Red Rose, a befitting introduction of a fresh young artist into the industry! DOWNLOAD

-- Update at bottom --
This morning, our old pal Jason DeRusha took to Twitter to announce that the website bearing his name for its URL has been hijacked:
Starting the new year with the discovery that someone swiped my expired http://t.co/BchKMxIxFO domain name and placed a Japanese site there.
-- Jason DeRusha (@DeRushaJ) December 31, 2013
That's unfortunate, but on the bright side, at least the site is unintentionally hilarious.
Though the site is in Japanese characters, the magic of the Google translator reveals that the text is about the author's "polish"... and breast augmentation?
Here's a screengrab:

That sneaky DeRusha... always dreaming up creative ways to generate more media coverage of himself. You can't fool us!
Reached for comment this morning, DeRusha said he lost control of the URL in November when his two-year contract expired and a renewal notice was sent to an e-mail account he hadn't been checking.
DeRusha said he's already contacted the new site owner to see if he might be willing to give the URL back, but whoever is in control didn't give him much hope he'd cough it up.
But DeRusha said he isn't sweating it, adding that he has "plenty of online outlets... I hadn't really been using my website as anything other than a parking spot for contact info."
DeRusha got back in touch with us a bit later because he didn't think his comments were quite up to his standards:
And here's the fruit of his labor:
Not bad!
