I'd argue that the Rangers really couldn't give a damn about their fans, but we'll leave that debate for another day. Instead let's take a look at a New York Times article that investigates what's at stake financially if the Rangers lose one of the next two games and miss the playoffs.
The following quotes are from this NY Times article .
State of the Rangers:
"Madison Square Garden Inc., which owns the Rangers, will certainly survive if the team misses the playoffs because the Rangers are only one part of a $1 billion enterprise that includes the Knicks, the Liberty and other sports properties; Radio City Music Hall and other theaters; and the MSG Network."
"But because all N.B.A. and N.H.L. teams must keep dates open at their arenas in case they make the playoffs, the elimination of the Knicks and the Rangers from the postseason means the Garden would remain empty for many more nights in April and May."
"The loss of playoff revenue would also come as Madison Square Garden spends about $800 million to renovate the 42-year-old arena. Home playoff games would not only generate a few more million dollars to help pay for the work, but would also give the Garden's salesmen more ammunition to sell season tickets, suites and advertising for next season."
How Much the Rangers Would Earn per Playoff Game:
"Tickets for the first round of the playoffs cost roughly 25 percent more than regular-season games, so the team would generate about $2 million in ticket revenue for each first-round home game. As the eighth seed, the Rangers would host up to three home games, worth as much as a total of $6 million."
Minus Expenses:
- "But like all playoff teams, the Rangers would give about half of that money to the N.H.L. In each round, the clubs still playing must pay the N.H.L. a low six-figure fee to help cover the league's costs to produce the playoffs, including expenses for travel, marketing and officiating. The fees increase each round."
- "The Rangers would also contribute part of their playoff ticket revenue to the N.H.L.'s revenue-sharing program, which redistributes money to the financially weaker teams."
Profit Earned from Food and Merchandising:
- Food:
"The Garden, though, would keep all food and beverage sales because it runs the concessions. Fans spend $18 to $26 a person at N.H.L. playoff games, said Chris Bigelow, the president of Bigelow Companies, a consultant to stadium operators. The Rangers would be on the high end of that range."
"Roughly half of the revenue from food and beverage sales covers the Garden's expenses for buying the hot dogs, pretzels and soda, and for hiring the workers to serve them. The Garden's profit, then, is equal to 18,200 fans multiplied by about $13, or about $235,000 for each playoff game."
- Merch:
"Fans spend about $5 a game on T-shirts, hats and other merchandise during the N.H.L. playoffs, Bigelow said. They might be reluctant to buy a $25 T-shirt if they expect the Rangers to be knocked out in the first round — a strong chance if they end up playing the Washington Capitals — though sales could jump if they upset the Capitals."
"Even then, the team receives only a small portion of merchandise sales, with the rest going to the league."
Ad Money:
"The MSG Network can sell more ads for each televised playoff game. But like other cable networks, MSG sometimes loses games if NBC or Versus broadcasts them nationally, a possibility because of the interest in the Capitals."
"Either way, the MSG Network is owned by Madison Square Garden Inc., so its revenue would be shared with the corporate parent."
Future Revenues:
"The Rangers in recent years have not raised ticket prices in seasons after they do not make the playoffs."
In total, the Rangers, if they played three home games at The Garden in the first round would earn: about $3 million in total ticket sales, about $700,000 in food sales, a negligible in t-shirt sales ect., and an undisclosed amount in ad sales.
So they're looking to lose about $4 million minimum by not making it to the first round of the playoffs. In all likelihood that number is exponential in advanced rounds. So they would lose at least $4 million during the first round and even more for other rounds.
The thing is, they aren't losing this money; they just aren't earning this money. But it's out there…if they can just win two more games.
My question is, what is $4 million to an ownership that didn't seem to be effected when they paid $10-plus million to some woman who sued former Knicks president Isiah Thomas? Hopefully times have changed and this will force them to reconsider Glen Sather's future with the organization. We can only dream.

Climate Progress Milestone: 50,000 Followers On Twitter And Facebook
While I was in the hospital for surgery, Climate Progress passed a real milestone: 50,000 total followers on Twitter and Facebook.
Social media aren't just a convenient way for you to keep up with CP or share content with your friends. They are our most rapidly growing sources of traffic, and the core reason Climate Progress had its best year yet in 2012. Overall, traffic is up 30% to 50% on most days.
Social media are particularly effective at disseminating headlines, which are the most important part of any blog post, as I discuss in my book Language Intelligence.
The traffic of WattsUpWithThat, like ever other major denial site, has been flat or declining since Copenhagen (check it out at quantcast.com). A large part of the reason is that the disinformers' social media efforts are flops, especially compared to climate hawks, as I wrote in January.
For instance, two months ago, CP had 36,900 followers on Twitter (subscribe here). I compared that to the self-proclaimed "world's most viewed climate website" (not!) WattsUpWithThat, with its astounding 6,130 followers.
So what happened after Watts launched a big effort to boost his social media following? WUWT is at a slightly more astounding 6,430 followers. CP is at 40,700. Yes, we added over 10 times as many. I guess WUWT is not the most viewed via social media.
I don't think that is an accident. The Internet was made possible by scientists, with a little help from Al Gore. More importantly, science is inherently a social enterprise — whereas denial, being anti-science, is in some sense an anti-social activity whose goal is to stop society from listening to the scientific community about the ever-growing risks to society posed by unrestricted emissions of carbon pollution.
Science is an inherently fascinating voyage of discovery in which people build on each others' work toward a better and better understanding of life and the world around us. As Newton wrote, "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants."
For deniers, who are on an inherently monotonous treadmill of anti-truth, misunderstanding, and disinformation that builds only toward nihilism, the quote might be, "If I have seen nothing, it is by standing with my head in the ground" (or maybe, "… it is by standing on my own shoulders").
16 Responses to Climate Progress Milestone: 50,000 Followers On Twitter And Facebook
Well deserved rewards for your unceasing hard work Joe.
"Keep the company of those that seek the truth but run from those that know it." Vaclav Havel
Two Palms Up, Leif
I'm not sure why you posted the link to Quantcast when you're talking about Facebook and Twitter followers. You clearly have them beat in social media but Quantcast shows that WUWT has GAINED 100,000 new viewers since Copenhagen. You may want to remove the link, just a suggestion.
Sorry, didn't notice the spike right at the date of Copenhagen. I was looking at this year not since 2009.
Instead of that cheapo graph by the headline, how bout the real one from when you started tracking social followers? 36,900 to 40,700 in 2 months looks like a possible hockey stick. CP blog is about 45,000? Also, it would fascinate to know if there has been significant upswing at climate science sites.
(NOAA, NASA, Woods Hole, NCAR etc)
Aaaaaaaahhhghhghghhghgh…… another bar chart!
But this one has awesome news. Congrats.
"(or maybe, '… it is by standing on my own shoulders')."
Hmm, I'm trying to picture where that would put his head… oh wait… :)
OK, dumb comment. I *love* Climate Progress and Joe Romm and ended up following some other climate news site on Facebook that seemed quite good – had a lot of good links.
Seems it is called Climate Progress – I only realized it was the same thing when I read this article : your point about headlines! I also think the predominantly white thumbnail on FB looks very different to the green banner here…..just trying not to look so dumb…
My guess is Twitter knows everything about your followers, for a small fee, maybe free?
It's pretty clear to me why, less snark, more facts.
The denial blogs are really only left with cheery picking the studies and feckless conspiracy theories. It gets to be redundant and boring, if not transparent.
Excuse me, "cherry picking", 5 minute edit feature anyone?
Grats! That is seriously an accomplishment!
thank you Joe, and congratulations.
Another reason for CP's success over WUWT, e,g,, is the signaling aspect of social media. If I RT a CP post, or like CP on my Facebook account, the worst my friends will think is that I am a naive environmentalist.
If I like WUWT, or RT one of their headlines, most will think I am an idiot. Some will think I am outright evil.

Mobile, Ala. -- Former Oakland Raiders quarterback JaMarcus Russell was arrested Monday on a drug possession charge, authorities said.
A spokeswoman for the Mobile County (Ala.) Sheriff's Office said Russell was arrested at his home Monday afternoon where investigators allegedly found codeine syrup without a prescription, the Mobile Press-Register reported.
The investigators were there as part of an undercover probe, authorities said.
Records indicate Russell was booked into the Mobile Metro Jail and released minutes later after making $2,500 bail, the newspaper said. He is set to appear in court on July 20, with a bond hearing scheduled for July 7.
Oakland, Calif. -- The Oakland Raiders released quarterback JaMarcus Russell Thursday, giving up on the first overall selection in the 2007 NFL draft.
The move came as no surprise in Oakland, where Russell has struggled since his rookie year and the Raiders last month acquired Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell.
The San Francisco Chronicle reported the Raiders will have to pay Russell a guaranteed $3 million this season.
Russell, a star at LSU, held out until after the 2007 season started and saw little action his first year. He started 15 games in 2008 and lost his starting job last season.
In 31 games, Russell threw for 4,083 yards with 18 touchdowns and 23 interceptions. He completed 52.1 percent of his passes.
San Diego -- LaDainian Tomlinson's two touchdowns Sunday keyed the San Diego Chargers' 24-16 win over Oakland.
Tomlinson gained 56 yards on 18 carries and scored touchdowns in the first and second quarters.
Phillip Rivers completed 16-of-25 passes for 249 yards, one touchdown and one interception.
Linebacker Shawne Merriman made two of five sacks for San Diego, giving him 8 1/2 in his last five games against the Raiders. Vincent Jackson caught eight passes for 103 yards with one touchdown for the Chargers (4-3), who have split their last four contests.
The Chargers out-gained the Raiders 346-180 in total yards.
Oakland's JaMarcus Russell had 109 passing yards with one interception.
Oakland, Calif., Sept. 27: Kyle Orton's touchdown pass to Brandon Marshall late in the first quarter Sunday sent the Denver Broncos on their way to a 23-3 victory over Oakland.
Orton, who was 13-for-23 for 157 yards, connected with Marshall on a 2-yard scoring play.
Knowshon Moreno scored on a 7-yard run and Matt Prater kicked field goals of 48, 21 and 24 yards for the Broncos (3-0).
Sebastian Janikowski accounted for the Raiders' points with a 48-yard field goal in the second quarter.
Quarterback JaMarcus Russell completed 12-of-21 passes for 61 yards with two interceptions for Oakland (1-2).

Oakland, Calif. -- Starting Oakland quarterback JaMarcus Russell had "regressed," Raiders passing game coordinator Ted Tollner said.
Tollner, speaking to reporters on the AOL FanHouse Web site Thursday, said the team's 2008 first-round draft pick from LSU made progress during the off-season, but now needs to make improvements in delivering the football.
"You can't wait till people are open," Tollner said. "We made strides and last week we fell back in all those areas. That's disappointing to all of us and we've got to get back on track. … We've got to give (him) a foot rhythm that allows (him) to turn the ball loose on time and (he needs) to buy into that."
Oakland, Calif. Aug. 14: Backup quarterback Bruce Gradkowski threw for 181 yards and a touchdown Thursday, sending the Oakland Raiders to a 31-10 pre-season decision over Dallas.
Gradkowski started 11 games with Tampa Bay in 2006 and one with Cleveland last season and hopes to challenge former No. 1 draft choice JaMarcus Russell for the top spot with the Raiders.
With Dallas owning a 10-7 lead early in the second quarter, Gradkowski drove Oakland 62 yards in five plays and the Raiders took the lead for good on a 3-yard pass to Tony Stewart.
Gradkowski also put together drives of 80 and 69 yards in the third period -- marches that ended with touchdown runs of 3 yards by Louis Rankin and 1 yard by Gary Russell.

Perdue: Stimulus to cover half of $2B shortfall
Published: Friday, January 16, 2009 at 7:50 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 16, 2009 at 7:56 a.m.
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) Gov. Beverly Perdue's plan to narrow an expected $2 billion budget shortfall this year relies on a federal stimulus package to fill nearly half of the spending gap.
Perdue's budget shortfall plan at a glance
The Associated Press
A quick look at how Gov. Beverly Perdue plans to find $2.05 billion to cover a projected revenue shortfall for state government, with cuts as a percentage of agency budgets listed in parentheses:
Public schools (2 percent reduction, no direct impact on classroom): $156 million.
University of North Carolina system (6 percent, financial aid exempt): $150 million.
Community college system (5 percent, financial aid exempt): $45 million.
Health and Human Services (6 percent, 4 percent for mental health. Medicaid excluded): $91 million.
Medicaid management savings: $122 million.
Justice and public safety (4 percent for Correction Department and courts, 5.5 percent for departments of justice, juvenile justice and crime control and public safety): $93 million.
Environment, Commerce departments, other agencies (7 percent): $63 million.
Delay capital projects paid for with cash: $107 million.
Return money for repairs and renovations of state buildings: $70 million.
Retain reserves, unspent capital funds: $75 million
Unspent money at close of 2007-08 fiscal year: $92 million.
Federal stimulus funds: $934 million.
Releasing details of how she'll balance the North Carolina state government budget by end of the June, the new governor also said Thursday she would hold back up to 7 percent of funds heading for state agencies, cutting most travel and keeping open jobs vacant.
Perdue also delayed capital projects using state cash and halted nonessential purchases. Once operating costs are reduced as far as possible, eliminating some underperforming programs is an option, State Budget Director Charlie Perusse said.
"I really am concerned. A 7 percent cut? There are going to be some agencies that are going to have to lay people off," Perdue told reporters. "There are no easy solutions. You can't find $2 billion without making tough choices."
No employment reductions were ordered as part of Thursday's announcements.
But Perdue's plan also banks on receiving more than $900 million from Congress to help the state by paying for a greater percentage of Medicaid expenses. The proposed $825 billion economic recovery bill released Thursday by House Democrat would earmark $87 billion for the states over the next two years for Medicaid.
Without the federal money, Perdue said she can't cover the shortfall without leaving a much deeper hole for the coming fiscal year.
"I can't do it without the stimulus money," Perdue said. "The stimulus money will help me fix that."
Outgoing Gov. Mike Easley had assembled a plan last fall to set aside as much as $1.2 billion, but that included using up to $300 million in the state's rainy day reserve fund.
Perdue's plan doesn't use any of that money this year and would only tap into some of it in the next fiscal year because the state may need it for a natural disaster. Perdue is already starting to form a budget plan to present to the Legislature for the year starting July 1.
Earlier in the week, the Democratic governor issued an executive order citing the $2 billion figure approaching 10 percent of the entire $21.4 billion spending plan approved last summer and issuing options for state agencies to save.
Perusse said state agencies have been told their alloted funds will be reduced by up to 7 percent, compared to up to 5 percent in Easley's plan. Department leaders have been given the flexibility to find the cost savings themselves.
Perdue also said spending for travel and training could continue when related to public safety and health, economic recruiting or emergencies involving people under the state's care. Classroom instructional supplies and equipment also are exempt from the purchasing delays.
Rep. Mickey Michaux, D-Durham, senior co-chairman of the House Appropriations Committee for the past two years, said it sounded like Perdue was on the right track trying to get a handle on the state's fiscal problems.
"I think folks really understand that we're going to have tighten our belts like we've never done before," Michaux said.
The delay on capital projects won't affect the $740 million in capital projects for which the Council of State agreed last week to accelerate construction schedules because they involve issuing new debt in the months ahead. Perdue hopes those projects will create thousands of jobs.
Perusse said tax collections were $625 million below projections used by lawmakers in crafting this year's budget. That amount is expected to grow to between $1.8 billion and $2.2 billion by the end of June.
Revenues usually are most volatile in the second half of the fiscal year, particularly with April tax payments, Perusse wrote.
Perusse said the state expects more federal stimulus money through the next fiscal year for road-building, public schools and other infrastructure projects, in addition to more Medicaid money and help for law enforcement.
The state is fairly confident that the state will receive hundreds of millions of dollars for Medicaid, Perusse told reporters.
Perdue went to Washington on Wednesday asking for help from President-elect Obama's transition office and the North Carolina congressional delegation. She brought paperwork showing North Carolina has $18 billion in potential infrastructure and capital needs statewide that could benefit from a stimulus package.

The Earth's atmosphere is much thicker so it is considerably less likely that neutrons from the upper atmosphere could reach its surface. One such Martian neutron has a kinetic energy of 200.0 MeV. Neutrons decay with a mean life of 881.5 seconds. How far would this neutron go (mean distance) as measured in the Mars frame of reference?

The magnitude 6.9 earthquake damaged dozens of homes, sparked landslides and knocked over utility poles.
A magnitude-7.1 earthquake on the Pacific Coast has jolted a wide area of southern Mexico and Central America. At least two people are reported dead in Guatemala.
The U.S. Geological Survey says the quake hit at 6:23 a.m. (7:23 a.m. EDT; 11:23 GMT) on the Pacific Coast 5 miles (8 kilometers) northeast of Puerto Madero, near the Guatemala border.
Firefighters spokesman Raul Hernandez says at least two people were killed in the Guatemalan town of San Marcos. In Mexico local news media reported the quake was felt strongly in the Mexican states of Chiapas and Tabasco, but there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries.
The quake was centered 57 miles (92.2 kilometers) below the surface.

Driver: San Francisco PC delayed
The PC release of Driver: San Francisco has been pushed back a few weeks, while a Mac version has gone more seriously AWOL.
Ubisoft told Blue's News the PC release will be on September 27, while console versions are expected earlier in the month.
A Mac version is apparently still on the cards but Ubisoft can't give a release window yet.
No PC or Mac demo is planned.
Ubisoft has made something of a habit of announcing a delay to the PC version of games at the last minute, with recent Assassin's Creed games a notable example.

If you have a child with baby hip dysplasia, you might be worried about finding a safe car seat with the extra leg space that's needed. Trying to adapt a standard car seat, by using towels for example, is very unsafe.
The Maxi-Cosi Opal HD is age-perfect for children with hip dysplasia . With more space for the legs and support for the back, this car seat offers your child the best safety, even with their legs spread wide. It has a soft padded seat for extra comfort, a support pillow for younger babies, a Side Protection System and 5 recline positions in forward-facing mode . It uses the seat belt* to be installed in the car and can be used rearward-facing up to 13kg, before being turned forward facing.
How does the service work?
Those that can provide recent proof of purchase of a Maxi-Cosi car seat can borrow the Maxi-Cosi Opal HD in return for a fully refundable £100 when it is returned in good condition. Where there is no proof of purchase available, Maxi-Cosi will refund half the deposit (£50) at the end of the loan period. In both cases, the loan can be extended if there is medical evidence to support such an extension.
Maxi-Cosi will deliver the seat through a 48hr delivery service on receipt of a signed contract and deposit, and will arrange collection towards the end of the six months. If you interested in this service, get in touch with STEPS.

Silver & Gold, Find the Lines & Little White Caravan taken from Duotone's forthcoming album Let's Get Low
Barney Morse-Brown had the privilege of working with Oxford's Cameron AG for the Mahogany Sessions a while back. The video has since gained numerous views and is still climbing.

Here you can find all of Duotone's upcoming gigs:
Due to a small fault on the gigs page I decided to add Duotone's next gig here instead!
For Duotone's first gig on the new year he will be performing live at the Green Note, London on the 19th Jan 2016 with support from The August List and Lucas & King. I very much hope you can make it.
Venue website: http://www.greennote.co.uk/
Duotone recently performed two tracks for Sofar Sounds - Little White Caravan at Oxford Sofar and Greetings Hello in Reading.
It's probably pretty obvious to most of you by now that Barney from Duotone is an avid hat wearer and since his first few tentative outings sporting head wear he's since been know to put that hat on as soon as he falls out of bed..
It would seem appropriate then to say at this point that the lovely people at Stetson Hats have recently come on board and given Barney the opportunity to sport their hats in all their glory.
A recent delivery of a Homburg and wide brimed trilby will feature heavily in Duotone's upcoming album photo shoot for the next record, upholding the tradtion of featuring hats on his album covers! The White Homburg kindly donated by T Snooks in Bridport for the cover of 'Work Harder & One Day You'll Find Her' and the black trilby and Bowler (sported by James Garrett) on the cover of Duotone's second album 'Ropes'.
Below is a video from Stetson which is a wonderful insight into the creation of one of their hats.
More hat talk soon!
Cut and Sewn from Stetson on Vimeo.
Barney Morse-Brown received a glowing review from Oxford magazine 'Nightshift' for his recent performance at The Port Mahon, Oxford. Hosted by Matt Chapman Jones.
Thank you Nightshift.
As promised, here's your chance to listen to another new song which will feature on the new record. Recording sessions have been sporadic but productive with the title track for the album nearly finshed in the last session.
These tracks will only stay on this site for a short while so keep an eye out for the next new one soon.
Since Duotone's last gig at Kings Place in London back in November 2012 there hasn't been much to report from the duo in the way of gigs or recordings.
Looking back on what Duotone had achieved since 2009's 'Work Harder & One Day You'll Find Her' and their second critically acclaimed record 'Ropes' which received rave reviews from Songlines, Electric Ghost, and was acknowledged buy the Observer as one of 20 'hidden gems' of 2012 both Barney and James came to the decision that, for the time being, they would take a break from promoting Duotone together so that they could both focus on their individual work commitments. Barney has since been working with Birdy in her live touring band and James is currently working on a debut solo album which will be out in 2014.
It really can't be underestimated what was made possible by both James and Barney working together. Success is so often more easily achieved by working with like minded people and the rewards have certainly been made more enjoyable when shared.
Duotone will still continue as the name that Barney Morse-Brown works under and the song 'Find the Lines' that has been posted recently will appear on his new record due out in 2014.
'Beguiling and crystalline'
'It's on 'Our Lands' that his songwriting strengths really shine'
Duotone is the recording and perform- ing alias of Barney Morse-Brown, cellist with multi-platinum artist Birdy as well as Chris Wood and the Imagined Village. His third solo album sees him working alongside musi- cians of the very highest calibre in producer / bassist Richard Evans (Peter Gabriel, Birdy), guitarist David Rhodes (Kate Bush, Peter Gabriel), drummer Ged Lynch (Goldfrapp, Black Grape) and violinist Jane Griffiths (Telling The Bees).
This is a glorious-sounding record on which Evans' production endows Morse- Brown's vocals with a palpable level of inti- macy. From the opening Little White Caravan, the listener occupies a sonic seat at "the table... set for two" as the album unfolds across hook-filled band tracks to the conclud- ing solo song, Our Lands.
Let's Get Low is an intelligent and thoroughly modern record, infused with the melodic structures of '80s pop and the emo- tional honesty of the best of the classic singer-songwriter era.
"Ropes is a delight. The album is full of treats including Til It's Over, Powder House and Turning Pages Over."
"The wilfully distinctive duo of Barney Morse-Brown and James Garrett bring dash of strangeness to their spring-clear acoustic guitar lines backed by sombre cello harmonies".
"This is a stunning album - cherish this oasis of delight"
"Highly, highly recommended"
'Certainly a record with more going on under the surface than an initial listen will convey. It is both quietly thought-provoking and tenderly constructed'.
Ropes is a gorgeous record that is immaculately performed and recorded, but which still retains an enticing air of melancholic mystery'
'Barney led a sing-a-long to the heart-rending You Dont Need Church its interesting that a song so-titled can sound so sacred'.

To see what Alex and the Robot 6 crew have been reading lately, click below.
As announced last summer at the San Diego Comic Con, Dark Horse has released the schedule for Mike Mignola's 2012 "Year of Monsters" variant cover program. The variant covers, which feature Mignola drawing classic monsters, will be available to retailers who order five or more copies of the standard cover.
"Mike Mignola got into the comics business with the simple goal of drawing monsters for a living," said Scott Allie, Dark Horse managing editor, in a press release. "Mike celebrates 2012 by pitting his greatest characters against his favorite monsters on these special covers, unrelated to the stories inside."
The schedule for the first half of the year can be found below, which shows that at some of the covers will appear on the just-announced B.P.R.D. titles. Lobster Johnson: The Burning Hand #1 arrives in stores on Jan. 11.
January—Lobster Johnson: The Burning Hand #1
February—B.P.R.D Hell on Earth: The Long Death #1
March—B.P.R.D. Hell on Earth: The Pickens County Horror #1
April—Lobster Johnson: The Burning Hand #4
May—B.P.R.D. Hell on Earth: The Transformation of J. H. O'Donnell
June—Baltimore: Dr. Leskovar's Remedy #1
Hiya kids, it's time for What Are You Reading?, a weekly look into what the Robot 6 crew has been reading lately. Today's special guest is Thom Zahler, creator of the delightful superhero/romantic comedy comic Love and Capes.
To find out what Thom and the Robot 6 crew have been reading lately, click below.
Welcome to Food or Comics?, where every week we talk about what comics we'd buy at our local comic shop based on certain spending limits — $15 and $30 — as well as what we'd get if we had extra money or a gift card to spend on a "Splurge" item.
Check out Diamond's release list or ComicList, and tell us what you're getting in our comments field.

If I had $15, I'd start with Demon Knights #1 ($2.99) and Frankenstein, Agent of SHADE #1 ($2.99). I'm excited about a lot of the DC Dark corner of the New 52; especially these two. Frankenstein is a continuation of the only Flashpoint series I stuck with and features one of my two favorite characters from Morrison's Seven Soldiers of Victory. I wasn't that interested in Demon Knights at first, but I was impressed by Paul Cornell's chasing down a female fan after a panel at San Diego to pitch the series to her as something that people who are looking for great, female characters will enjoy. And I've been wanting to dig deeper into Cornell's work anyway. On the Marvel side, I'm still thrilled about how well Alpha Flight is doing (creatively, I mean, but I guess it must be doing okay in sales too), so #4 ($2.99) is a must-buy for me. And I can't wait to see how Mystery Men ends with #5 ($2.99). That's been one of the high points of my summer, comics-wise. Finally, I'd grab X-Men Legacy #255 ($2.99) to dip my toe a little deeper into the X-Men world after being away from it for a while.
Editor's Note: With the recent discussions going on around the comics community about creator-owned comics, we're pleased to welcome one of the voices in those discussions, 30 Days of Night and Mystery Society creator Steve Niles, to Robot 6 for a series of columns on creator-owned comics. A big thanks to Steve for agreeing to do the column, as well as to artist Stephanie Buscema for creating a killer image for it.
by Steve Niles
Hello everybody!
Welcome to the first installment of my new column, Creator-Owned Spotlight. I tried to think up an amusing title, but then decided to just settle on what it was: a spotlight on creator-owned comics, publishers and retailers who support the need for more creator-owned books.
I guess the first order of business is to define what I mean when I say "creator-owned comics." I'm talking about ANY book where the creator has ANY ownership in their book. So basically, if you sign a work-for-hire agreement, you don't generally have ownership. It doesn't make those books bad, or the enemy, or anything like that. We're just not talking about them here.
Why am I doing this? I've been called insane for wanting to promote my competitors' work. All I have to say to that is: it isn't a competition. And yes, I am crazy. I've drawn a line in the sand for myself to be positive. I hope you'll try, too.
First up is such an obvious choice; I really don't need to write much at all. His name is synonymous with creator-owned books, because he's one of creator-owned comics' greatest success stories. He's also a friend and hero of mine.
Dark Horse has an interesting feature on their website: Every now and then they show all the stages in the making of a comic, from script through thumbnails, pencils, inks, coloring, and lettering, and they do it for five or six pages, so you can really see how the story develops. The latest example is issue 1 of Baltimore – The Plague Ships, written by Mike Mignola and Christopher Golden with art by Ben Stenbeck. It's a must-see for those who like to watch all the parts come together.
Elsewhere on the site, you can watch Chris Scalf's cover for Star Wars: Blood Ties unfold in a three-minute video. The cover was done entirely digitally, and the process, from a single rough shape to the complex final product, is fascinating to watch.

Copycat John Alden Rollwich
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 0 mins
If you've ever been to Cape Cod, you've almost certainly either seen or eaten at one of the many Box Lunch franchises in the area. This is my recreation of one of their famous "Rollwiches", scaled down to fit my smaller appetite. Feel free to make this in a larger tortilla and increase the other ingredients if you desire. If you add some slices of swiss cheese, this becomes a Priscilla Alden!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 flour tortilla (soft taco size, about 7.5 inches)
- 2 teaspoons mayonnaise or 2 teaspoons light mayonnaise
- 1 1⁄2-2 tablespoons jellied cranberry sauce
- 2 ounces thinly sliced turkey (enough for a couple of thin layers)
- romaine lettuce (I also enjoy using baby spinach, although that's not true to the original)
- 3 slices tomatoes
- Spread the mayonnaise on the tortilla, making sure to leave at least 1/2 inch around the outside.
- Glop on a thin layer of cranberry sauce, but enough that it's fully covered. If you mash the cranberry sauce with a fork it seems to spread more easily.
- Add the turkey and a thin layer of lettuce (or spinach).
- Place the 3 tomato slices in a line down the center of the tortilla.
- Make sure you don't fill the tortilla too full or get too close to the edge, or it won't wrap properly!
- Carefully roll the tortilla into a wrap. Cut into two pieces, if desired.
- Dig in and enjoy a taste of New England!
Most Helpful
I'm giving this five stars even though I left out the tomato because I didn't have one. I must admit that I tried it because of the name. John and Priscilla Mullens Alden are my many greats grandparents, so when I saw the title to this sandwich, well.......... I love the flavor of turkey and cranberry. Tart and yummy and the mayonnaise is so good with it all. Thanks, Kree, for posting this one.
Yummy and different.
Wonderful! This is the second rollwich recipe of your's that I've tried and they're both amazing! I want to go to Cape Cod just to go to this Box Lunch place. I used a flat-out wrap on this to make wrapping easier, and kept the romaine lettuce and tomatoes. I will definitely be making this again!

Women in science talk mentorship: A tweet chat
NIBRChat Header Img
Thank you to our 100+ #NIBRchat participants!
If you didn't have a chance to join us, here are the top highlights of the conversation we had around mentorship for women in science.
As they say, many great scientists happen to be women. Still, female scientists are underrepresented at senior levels of most research institutes. Who can women researchers seek out for support and opportunities in their careers?
We believe in the value of mentorship to advance women in science. And we're not alone.
At NIBR, if we mentor well, we develop new leaders, improve the quality of our work, make clearer decisions, build stronger teams, and improve individual job satisfaction, professionalism, and career development.

In addition, she is the co-leader of the Blood Cancer Research Partnership (BCRP), a consortium for innovative clinical trials of community oncology sites coordinated by DFCI.
She received her medical degree from Cairo University School of Medicine, Egypt. She completed her internal medicine training at Wayne State University, MI, and her hematology/oncology subspecialty training at Mayo Clinic College of Medicine, MN.
Her research focuses on understanding mechanisms of tumor progression from early precursor conditions such as monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) and Smoldering disease to symptomatic Multiple Myeloma (MM) and Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia (WM). She specifically focuses on the role of the malignant bone marrow niche in regulating disease progression. She is interested in the development of new molecular/genomic markers that predict progression in precursor conditions which can identify patients who should be eligible for therapeutic interventions to prevent progression or potentially cure the disease at the early stages of the disease before clonal evolution occurs.
She authored or co-authored over 250 publications and book chapters and has received funding support from the National Cancer Institute as well as multiple foundations including Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation and International Myeloma Foundation. She has received multiple awards including membership in the American Society of Clinical Investigation (ASCI), Robert A. Kyle Award for Research in Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia, and Mentor of the Year Award at DFCI in 2014.
"I have been fortunate to have great mentors throughout my career and at each step of my academic life. They are the beacon of light that guides us through the stormy life of our academic careers. I would advise every person (man or woman) to seek good mentors even if they are not within their field or in their own Institute."

"It's important to provide strong role models of leaders, especially in science, since there are leadership qualities that can't be taught from a book. With both time and encouragement, mentoring can be adapted to each individual's way of learning. Just as important is knowing that there is someone out there rooting for you to succeed and who will answer questions that foster future success."

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) _ EPA officials say they're testing the air
quality at a southeast Wichita school after a rise in chromium
levels at industrial plants near the school.
The Environmental Protection Agency will be monitoring the air
around Colvin Elementary School for the next 60 days. It will
include a check of levels of hexavalent chromium, which is used in
such manufacturing jobs as welding and spray painting.
The chemicals being tested are potentially harmful, but school
officials say there's no cause for alarm.
Boeing and Spirit Aerospace are located in the same area as the
elementary school. Both have reported chromium releases.
Colvin Elementary is one of 62 schools across the nation _ and
the only one in Kansas _ selected for air quality monitoring.

Travelers' Diarrhea: What You Need to Know
Is it okay to take Lomotil, Lonox, or Imodium to relieve travelers' diarrhea? continued...
Remember that these agents do not cure the illness. They just stop you up and thus stop the cramping. These drugs are fine to take immediately, right after you feel that urge and pass that first loose stool. It will make you feel better faster.
Some people think that it is not a good idea to take agents such as these with diarrhea because it's better to purge all the "bad stuff" that's in you. But a number of studies show taking something like Imodium does not prolong illness. Now people with high fever or bloody stools or terrible abdominal symptoms should NOT take these drugs. They should seek medical attention.
For people with mild to moderate travelers' diarrhea, there is nothing wrong with taking Imodium and a dose of antibiotic at the same time. For mild diarrhea, if you do not have an antibiotic or are just looking for temporary relief, it is fine to take these drugs without an antibiotic. But if you're looking for a cure and want and need to move on with your travels, in general, it is good to take an antibiotic as well. One to three days of antibiotics will cure most cases of travelers' diarrhea.
What antibiotic should I take for travelers' diarrhea?
It depends. For adults, ciprofloxacin is used most commonly. Sometimes, for those traveling to certain places in Southeast Asia, where bacterial pathogens have increased resistance, some doctors like to prescribe azithromycin. In some cases where you feel that the traveler may likely be exposed to just the coliform pathogens such as E. coli, some prescribe rifaximin.
Of course, antibiotics work only for bacterial causes of travelers' diarrhea. Know that even bacterial travelers' diarrhea usually gets better without antibiotic treatment, although rehydration is always advised and symptoms may take 3 to 5 days or more to subside without treatment.
For those with diarrhea due to parasitic infections, there are agents that are specific for each type of infection. However, for Giardia infections, tinidazole [Tindamax] is often prescribed and is very effective.

I'm happy to report that the ArcaEx team returned to victory lane this past weekend at Pikes Peak International Raceway. It was the second IRL IndyCar Series win of the year for the team, and coincidentally, both have come on one-mile ovals.
I don't know that there is any one reason why we've found success on the one-mile tracks this season, other than the fact that they are both low-grip situations and that suits my driving style. But the team and engineers at Andretti Green Racing have consistently given me a good car and I know that we can always count on our Honda engines being very strong.
The No. 27 ArcaEx Dallara/Honda/Firestone was a fast car from the start of the race. I was probably a little too aggressive at the start and maybe went a little quicker than I should have, because by the end of the first stint, the car was pretty loose and I suffered for that. But, I learned my lesson and, from then on, I had to sort of let things settle down a bit early in our fuel runs.
The ArcaEx crew has been doing an excellent job of getting me in and out of the pits this season, and Pikes Peak was no different. They really show how much of a team effort racing really is. We did have one situation occur which I feel bad about. During our first pit stop, I clipped my vent guy, Mike Miller, and he suffered some torn ligaments in his knee. That delayed us a little bit, but I stayed with the leaders and after the next caution period I managed to retake the lead on the restart.
From that point, it was a matter of my being really cautious about not getting too far ahead, not putting too much into the first part of a stint. We had a yellow flag with 50-some laps remaining and my guys did another excellent job of getting me in and out of the pits with the lead. At that point, Adrian Fernandez was running in second place and he stuck pretty close on the restart, but when we hit traffic, I was able to really work on my rhythm and stretch the gap back to him.
I've jumped a couple places in the IndyCar Series point standings and am now in fifth place, just seven points back of fourth. And, it was also another great day for Andretti Green Racing, as each of my teammates finished in the top-10 and that's the third time this season that we've accomplished that feat.
This weekend, we race for the final time at Nazareth Speedway and it will be a very busy weekend for a number of reasons. I have some media functions to attend, as well as several sponsor obligations for ArcaEx and Forsythe. Plus it's the hometown for Michael Andretti and his family, so that adds an extra element of excitement to the event.
Nazareth also wraps up a portion of the schedule which has had us racing six times over a seven-week period. And much as I'd like to kick back and relax over the following week, I won't be able to as I'm taking part in the IndyCar Series' road test at Homestead. I'm excited about the prospects for us going road racing next season, so this should be a fun challenge.
Until next time ...

Ankle/calf flexibility/mobility routine
View Single Post

Join Date: Jun 2007

For myself and the kids I coach I generally do this in our WU/joint mobility/prevention:
Heel toe raises. On ground if we can't get access to doing them on the beams ( forefoot on beam, heels off ). We 10 feet together, heels together toes out, toes together heels out, 10 on each foot with the other leg in the air.
Sometimes we do heel to toe walks if we have room. We also practice walking on the foot on the outside edge for say 20-40 feet and walking on the inside of the foot. Then we roll our foot from outside to inside and back 15x.
We generally do foot circles both ways 10x.
We hop 40 feet across lines on the floor side to side with the arm circling backwards. This is coordination and warmup for the next drill. Small hops building strength for the next drill which is hopping on one foot for distance. Depending on the height of the gymnast, it's good to do 6 hops across the floor, maybe 7 or 5. We do 1 or 2 passes of these on each foot. Very important to build up that ankle strength for tumbling and vault.
Also bare in mind, that for the last 30 years, I've probably been barefoot 75% of that time or more. I never liked shoes or socks. I wear sandals when I have to outside if it's cold ( cold feet on concrete or asphalt is bad because it sucks away your body heat ) and I've been lucky as a gym coach to generally be bare foot when I'm coaching though I have worked other jobs at the same time requiring shoes or dress shoes.
My ankles are probably very mobile but weaker than I would prefer since doing the one foot bounds for distance usually show they are weak. I've also rolled my ankles tumbling a lot which is common for gymnasts and this has required time off from doing stuff on feet and landings.

THis is a really good song
4 some reason this song made me feel good, this one is awsome i like it 5/5 from me ;)
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Let's go again! Let's go again! XD
I LOVED Rose, so it should come as no surprise that you're getting nearly all 10s on this one. First, I have to say I loved that buildup, with the synth going down in tone, and then you enter the melody... your song explodes. =D make more! Make more! XD
My one problem with this is that it seemed a little too much like Rose... not that that's a bad thing, of course - but it seems you reused some instruments when you could have found some equally shiny and awesome ones to use.
I love that section that starts around 1:35 or so, though it's even better when you use the synth going down in tone for a second entrance into the melody.
I didn't like the ending so much, though - I think that instead, you could have added to the tempo and tension and gone out with a bang to keep with that insane energy levels idea.
This song made my day - I hope this review does the same for you! =D
Rated 5 / 5 stars
You weren't kidding...
When you said that fans of Rose would like this, you were not kidding. I loved this one. Vert harmonic melody about half-way through as well. Keep it up! You are #1 in Orchestral Trance no question.
Thanks! It's an honor. :D
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Very suiting title. Amazingly fast
I'm not sure where to start. It's not so much the speed that impressed me as opposed to the fact that you still managed to hold together a great melody throughout the entirety of the track. Also, I like the brief slow-down in the middle. This was absolutely fantastic.
:D yay!
Thanks, it took a lot of effort making all this work.
Rated 5 / 5 stars

Yea, I need to work on my equalizing a bit. Other than that, I'm really glad you liked it. I'm a junkie for those orchestral sounds. :P
