International developed markets stocks fell in the first quarter of 2016. Japanese equities fell 6% in U.S. dollar terms. Japan's economy remained sluggish despite the series of accommodative monetary and fiscal policies and structural reforms known as Abenomics. Policymakers downgraded their growth expectations near the end of the quarter. European equity markets generally declined, although shares in the Netherlands and Portugal bucked the negative trend. Many markets were hurt by weakness among bank stocks amid concerns about negative interest rates, nonperforming loans, especially in Italy, and exposure to the energy sector. Stocks in emerging markets gained in the first quarter, thanks to a March rally. The U.S. dollar weakened against several major currencies, boosting returns for U.S. investors.
The Spectrum International Fund returned −0.85% in the quarter compared with −0.26% for the MSCI All Country World Index ex USA and −1.79% for the Lipper International Multi-Cap Growth Funds Average. For the 12 months ended March 31, 2016, the fund returned −6.84% versus −8.78% for the MSCI All Country World Index ex USA and −5.91% for the Lipper International Multi-Cap Growth Funds Average. The fund's average annual total returns were −6.84%, 2.72%, and 3.12% for the 1-, 5-, and 10-year periods, respectively, as of March 31, 2016. The fund's expense ratio was 0.94% as of its fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.
Benchmark Definitions
We are overweight to emerging versus developed market equities based upon the former's more attractive valuations, which remain below long-term historical averages relative to developed markets. While the potential for further slowing of emerging markets' economic growth and U.S. interest rate normalization remain near-term risks, valuations appear to be discounting longer-term growth potential and company-specific opportunities. We remain overweight international value stocks relative to growth stocks as valuations in more defensive growth sectors, such as consumer staples, appear expensive. We are modestly overweight small-cap stocks outside the U.S. as they may benefit from improving domestic economic environments supported by stimulative monetary policies.
Our global growth expectations remain modest as weak global trade and lower commodity prices weigh on global economies. The U.S. Federal Reserve downgraded its economic growth and inflation expectations for 2016, while remaining committed to interest rate policy normalization at a "gradual" pace. Central bank policies in Europe, Japan, and some emerging markets continue to diverge from the U.S. as they implement quantitative easing measures and negative interest rates to stimulate growth. Key risks to global markets include the impacts of global monetary policy actions, including the potential adverse consequences of negative interest rates on banking sector profitability, increased currency volatility, and political and policy uncertainties facing many countries already weighed down by weaker growth.

Police: man saved by seat beltApril 03,2013Police: man saved by seat belt
HARTFORD A New Hampshire firefighter is being recognized by the Vermont State Police with its Saved by the Belt award after he survived a head-on crash in Interstate 89 that killed three people in the other vehicle.
Vermont State Police Traffic Safety Commander Lt. Michael Macarilla presented the award Monday in Hartford to John Hill, of the Hooksett, N.H., fire department.
Macarilla says that by properly wearing his seat belt, Hill avoided serious injury or death.
Hill was off duty during the May 7, 2012, crash. He was headed south when a northbound vehicle crossed the median and hit him.
Hill suffered a broken arm, chest and leg injuries, but he returned to full duty at the fire department within six month of the crash.MORE IN This Just InLOS ANGELES As throngs of Pokemon Go players traipse around to real-world landmarks in...

Way to file it Mr. Schmaday!
If you can ever get your hands on a copy of the TAMI show video, the James Brown part at the end - even on a show as Wonder Bread as that one - was incendiary. The screams, the fall-and-hurt-your-knees, the cape, the return to the mike - everything in one small, sorta blurry, lo-fi package from the mid-60s.
As he says on In The Jungle Groove, "Put your hands on the speakers! can you feel it? If you got any kind of soul, you got to feel it."
Yeah, he set fire to the TAMI Show, didn't he? And that was only the second or third revolutionary thing he did. He hadn't even invented funk yet. Go dig out "Escapism, Pt. 2" and groove in his honor.
I can't believe you got to go to that, David. That must have been amazing.
Holy shit! Funky Doula of Hip-hop is the funniest ever!
you lucky motherfucker!
ah shit, that guys poster says the show also featured Black Ivory and Joe Bataan...fuuuck

Fisher's View- ACWS, San Diego- 'It never rains in California?'
by Bob Fisher on 13 Nov 2011
On the wharf, in the rain - A wet welcome to America's Cup World Series, San Diego, Day 1 ACEA - Photo Gilles Martin-Raget ©
Bob Fisher, one of the worlds top international yachting journalists, and certainly the top writer on the America's Cup, is in San Diego for the Third round of the America's Cup World Series.
Bob is a multihuller from way back, having competed for Britain in the Little America's Cup and has been covering the America's Cup since 1967.
He writes:
Dear Diary – Day 1 - America's Cup World Series - San Diego, California, USA
'It never rains in California, but girl, don't they warn ya?
It pours, man, it pours.'
And so it was today on the AC World Series race course in San Diego inside the harbour where it was held for the benefit of the spectators and despite the inclemency of the weather, there was a goodly sprinkling of spectators.
What did they see? A massive recovery in the first race by Artemis Racing and Emirates Team New Zealand from DNDFL (Damn nearly dead flipping last) and DFL respectively at the third leeward gate to finish first and second. This Lazarus-like recovery was the result of going to the opposite side of the course to all the other seven competitors, picking up one shaft of breeze in the otherwise breathless conditions.
'We'll take whatever we can get when it's like that,' said Artemis skipper Terry Hutchinson. The conditions were very difficult. 'it was almost impossible to see the wind, such as it was, on the water,' said Chris Draper, the skipper of Team Korea, 'the rain wiped out the usual tell-tale signs.'
New boy on the block, Darren Bundock, in charge of Oracle Racing No.5, formerly skippered by Russell Coutts, was full of praise for the AC-45s: 'It's like sailing a Tornado or any responsive catamaran,' he said, 'the wing gives great power even in the lightest breezes.'
And the breezes were at their lightest, although the AC-45s displayed that they met their requirements to be capable of racing in 3-30 knots, lifting their hulls and hitting 12-14 knots in the few puffs of 6-7 knots.
The second race saw the two Tornado champions, Andreas Hagara (China Team) and Darren Bundock, stride to the front in the shorter race. 'We'll take that win,' said Hagara, 'maybe there will be more.' The China Team lies third overall one point behind ETNZ and Artemis, who respectively finished third and fourth in the second race.
There is promise of more breeze and less rain for the second day of the Port Cities Challenge on Sunday. We all live in hope.

America's Cup - Glenn Ashby on Emirates Team NZ's road to Bermuda
Part 2 of the interview with Emirates Team NZ skipper Glenn Ashby.
In this part of the interview we look at what is going to happen once Emirates Team NZ get their 'AC49.5' sailing in Auckland, and how the campaign may shape up before they leave for Bermuda. Ashby wouldn't be drawn on whether Team New Zealand had started their AC50 build, with July being the usual start of what is usually a five-month build and commissioning period for an end of December launch.

Although they will be one of the last of the six teams to launch an AC45 Surrogate, Emirates Team New Zealand may have stolen a march with a boat that is as close as you can get to an AC50.

Avram Grant, the former Chelsea manager, has adopted the Polish nationality of his family who were forced to flee Nazi occupation in 1939.
Mr Grant received a Polish passport during a private ceremony at the country's embassy in London on Monday.
Failure to win the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations would not cost Avram Grant his job following his appointment as the manager of Ghana.
Instead, former Israel and Chelsea boss Grant, 54, has been encouraged "to do well" at the competition in Equatorial Guinea after signing a two-year contract.
Ghana president Kwesi Nyantakyi said: "Grant needs time to know the players very well so we can't ask h
The England team's run-up to the European Championship in Poland and Ukraine will include a talk next week from two Holocaust survivors.
Meanwhile, former Chelsea manager Avram Grant was at Auschwitz this week, recording a Radio Five Live programme which goes out on Tuesday.
An Iranian football team has pulled out of a match with a Serbian club because the other side is coached by an Israeli.
Avram Grant, the former West Ham United manager, has been at Partizan Belgrad since last month.
The Serbian team is due to play Iran's Sepahan Isfahan on Friday, in a friendly match.
But the Iranians have told the Belgrade side that they will not take part any more.
As Avram Grant signed an 18-month deal to manage Serbian champions Partizan Belgrade, he pledged to return to the Premier League.
Grant, who has managed at Chelsea, West Ham and Portsmouth, said: "It is no secret that I still want to manage in England where I have been for the past five years.
"I love the place but the offers I received in England were not good enough and probably people rem
Avram Grant is determined to remain in English football despite becoming the first manager to achieve back-to-back Premier League relegations.
Grant took Portsmouth and West Ham down in consecutive seasons but he is looking for another opportunity.
Not even the staunchest Avram Grant supporter would want him at their club as manager now. The man's market value has hit rock-bottom, in England at least, following back-to-back relegations.
His departure from West Ham came exactly a year to the day since he left Fratton Park.
Just days after being sacked by West Ham, Avram Grant is looking to get back into management.
The Israeli was shown the door after last weekend's defeat against Wigan Athletic which confirmed relegation.
We understand that Grant has already received an offer from Chelsea, a team he led to the Champions League final in 2008.
Avram Grant has left West Ham following Sunday's 3-2 defeat at Wigan Athletic which sealed their relegation from the Premier Division.
The Hammers threw away a 2-0 lead to become the first team to go down from the top-flight this season.
"Avram Grant is no longer the manager of West Ham United," a statement said.
Avram Grant has admitted that he will take full responsibility if West Ham are relegated from the Premier Division.
The Israeli manager saw his team's hopes take another blow in the 1-1 draw against Blackburn Rovers on Saturday.
Grant said: "The team's position is my responsibility. All the things that happen in the club are down to me.

If you like the tacky feel these are prefect for you!
No gripes about this tacky grip. Switched to these from tournagrips which lasted about two weeks at best. These last about two or three months and work very well until they get too dirty.
Very thin and tacky, would recommend.
Love the tacky feel in my hand. Reasonable price point. I thought these would wear out pretty fast, but so far they have proved to be more durable than tourna-grip. Won't buy anything else from now on.
I like it coz it is sticky, and last a reasonable time.
I have tried many brands & different kinds of overgrips, but my search is officially over! These are thin, long lasting and of course will keep your grips from slipping in worst of humid conditions. Love them!
I bought these to replace the overgrips on my son's Prince racquets. It was easy to apply and provides pretty good tacky traction. I would recommend it especially if you are looking for a no-thrill reasonably priced overgrip.
I love the way this grip feels. it's not to rough. very durable. lasts long. I always love white grips and this one keeps color longer.
this grip has a long life. I would definitely buy more.
Compared to others, I found this to be of poor quality and grip. It wears out much quicker than others. Maybe I received a bad batch.
Absorbs the sweat, last along time, very firm grip, no slipping.
i love that it is the breast cancer color and that overall it really absorb your sweat and very good feeling

The actor likes roaming at his all-time favourite places like Lokhandwala (Andheri), Bandstand and Carter Road (Bandra) and he still continues to do that. And the young lad is completely fine at getting stalked by girls. "I used to stay in Lokhandwala earlier and I like walking on the streets of that place. Now that I live in Hiranandani, I don't mind being stalked. I usually talk to these people and smile at them," says the actor.
Rishabh has not changed one bit, and loves to break into a conversation with beautiful girls on the streets, "Usually people keep staring at me but I give them a smile. And if there are pretty girls around, I also go ahead and tell them a hello, and shake hands with them. I think one must always smile at people whatever the situation may be."

Fascinating study done by Harvard Business School on economics behind the Open source movement and its implications on Microsoft – unlike other partisan reviewers, the authors are accomplished professors who look at the issue from an unusual angle – formal economic modeling, here is their main finding -
"Our main result is that in the absence of cost asymmetries and as long as Windows has a first-mover advantage (a larger installed base at time zero), Linux never displaces Windows of its leadership position."
Other Quotes -
The model shows that Microsoft can use piracy as an effective tool to price discriminate, and that piracy may even result in higher profits to Microsoft!
Harnessing demand-side learning more efficiently is not sufficient for Linux to win the competitive battle against Windows.

Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
Since being named "London's Lord to Land" by a popular ladies' magazine, Nicholas St. John has been relentlesslypursued by every matrimony-minded female in the ton. So when an opportunity to escape fashionable society presentsitself, he eagerly jumps--only to land in the path of the most determined, damnably delicious woman he's ever met

The sinfully handsome, eminently eligible Lord Nicholas could be the very salvation she seeks.

Pension planning at 40? Is there nothing more important to do?
But there is a field where the most of us are hard headed procrastinators do not even have a bad conscience yet as the time to finish a job is not as imminent as doing a household chore, finish a job working around the house or having a deadline to deliver an article:
Thinking planning our financials at the still fresh and active age of forty, does not even appear to us as procrastination, it is too far away from our present lifestyle yet. Pension is for the others, the grey haired walking on a cane seniors feeding the ducks in the parks. It is so far away and the thoughts about have no room in our so active and hectic present life. Pension life is a probability which hardly ever will happen to us.
I have been raised at a farm where the property and operation was handed over to the eldest son who would have to take care for the elders later on and the second son was scheduled to become a Monsignor and would be taken care for by mother church when becoming old.
But life sometimes deviates from the safe paths walked by five generations.
All of a sudden a brutally secular executive carrier hit, forcing me to give in to all the temptations big money all of a sudden thrown at me were creating.
Buying a new car, nothing less than a BMW or Mercedes was worth to look at, the leasing rates were so low and the salesmen had it on his calendar so I would not miss to renew the leasing contract, naturally with the next fancier model.
Vacations? A photo safari to the Kruger national Park, a trip in the luxury version of the Trans-Siberian Railway or a weekend in fall going foxhunting in Ireland. Nothing less to impress colleagues and neighbors.
The credit line on American Express was limitless.
The house had to be bigger as the one of my peers and the children took riding and piano lessons to make up with their classmates.
Not a single thought about times the money flow could become trickling or ending one day.
Luckily enough I got an excellent offer to sell my company shares which took care for levelling down the mountain of debts which had built up over decades and finally a good family friend offered help to invest the rest of the funds carefully. It was five minutes to twelve for rescuing my financials.
But not everybody is as lucky of being blessed by a lucrative buy out and winning the lottery has quite a low probability.
But even for the people with lower incomes: The expenses must not be the foxhunts in Ireland and it must not the BMW's as long as there is no plan which has a reasonable percentage of savings for the old days the whole financial future becomes a fragile house of cards.
It is the discrepancy of higher outflow than inflow of funds endangering our third age living.
I recently read a report in the "Huffington Post" *. It showed such financial planning details I wished I would have crossed similar information twenty years earlier when I still had my income heydays.
The report is like a revelation. All my financial sins are listed as described in the report: I did not leave out a single one.
Credit card debt planning? Monthly spending plans? Household budgets? What retirement would cost one day? How there could be an answer, when there never the question was asked?
Sure there were automatic deductions from the salaries and commissions paid for social security and pension plans. For health insurance there were deduction and the company paid a portion. Living with these kinds of income acquired through social security payments would have requested a life at lowest levels.
We teach our children so many things today, we send toddlers to learn a second language, teenagers need to go to foreign countries and we study minor subjects of Buddhist philosophy. Nothing is wrong with that. But who teaches children and adults house holding their monies and plan for the future? The financial gurus in the banks have done additional damage selling instruments which failed and contributed so to finance planning frustration.
Writing this article I became aware how little we know about planning our money, Even it is our personal fate which affects all stages of life.
We do not need to be financial geniuses, but we should have from the early age on an idea how we handle our money matters from the Kindergarten to the pension age.
Financial planning should be the subject of neutral institutions to start teaching from kindergarten on how to plan the pocket money through all courses of life and should be not left to selfish "financial advisers" which have nothing else in mind then their own profits and commissions.
I am far away from always calling for state regulation. But here the state has not only a right but also an obligation as at the end the society needs to give support to the financially wrecked individuals.
Maybe we at Swan Global Direct should, as long as public neutral financial education is not offered publish a series how to handle our finances from the pocket money from Kindergarten age until how to transfer of our lifelong financial achievements to our loved ones.
So to end this here is the answer to my question in the headline:
When it comes to personal finances there is hardly anything more important than starting financial planning as early as possible.
It is so simple.

I own a color consulting and interior painting company. I use craigslist, door to door flyering, word of mouth and try to get my website bumped up for web searches but I can't seem to get a steady stream of business. My clients love what I do and once I get that first call I almost always get the job, any advice on how to get my business name out there more???
Advertising Advice

Not yet. I will look into that. Thanks for the idea. Also, how did you get you website on your signature, mine doesn't work.
Hi and congrats.
One word. Expos! Find events where you can go, set up a booth, and meet people face to face! Then you can do a drawing for something that they can enter, and you can follow up.
Advertising, well, it's Passive. You can't follow up. People see it, then forget you unless you are in front of them all the time. But if you have your customer lists, created from people who have seen you and asked for more info, you can do email and marketing campaigns.
Examples of expos include: Kids expos (show a demonatration of some kids rooms), Baby fairs, home shows, cooking expos or taste of homes (show kitchens), be creative and look in your area and surrounding towns you are willing to drive to.
Sky_89 Sorry I don't know what PM is but about your questions. Craigslist is free in most areas but it requires reposting frequently so you stay at the top of the posting. Flyering my brother aka biz partner and my husband will do the flyering and occasionally we will hire people to do it but not often. We do simple black and white on color paper, half size sheets and I think 400 cost around $12 so it is cheap. What kind of business do you have, I went to the site but didn't spend much time looking around.
Great idea about the expos. I really need to do that it just always seems like such a huge expense but I'm sure it's worth it.
In your business personal referrals should be an important source of new clients. Develop some referral incentives for your clients--like for however many new paying clients they refer they get a free/discounted service. Give your business cards to everyone you know and have them hand them out to potential customers. Start a FB group to start getting the word out to a broader audience.
Also-- find some local coffee shops that have a community bulletin board and put your cards/fliers up.
The expo idea is a great one--make sure you target your efforts where they'll more likely pay off. You might also find other small groups of people that get together (mom's group, etc) and do a presentation with coupons for those that participate.

Other semiconductor products include standard logic, application-specific integrated circuits, reduced instruction-set computing microprocessors, microcontrollers and digital imaging devices. TI may be best known for making calculators so advanced, most people have no clue how to operate them. 52-Week Range: $26.06 to $34.24 Book Value: $10.17 Price-to-Book Ratio: 2.9 Earnings Payout Percentage: 44% >>> Also see: Apple Is a Bad Investment The company currently pays 84 cents per share in dividends for a yield of 2.8%. Not quite 3%, but based on Texas Instrument's history of dividend increases (including 2009 when many companies cut back), and current low payout rate, 3% may be in the near future. Shares have traded slightly lower in the last month of trading. Shares are near even from a month ago. Let the shares come in a little more and don't chase TI; an entry below $30 is best. Most of the analysts -- 26 out of 44 -- give this stock a hold rating. Fourteen rate it a buy, and four rate it a sell. TI's short interest as a percentage of float is inconsequential at 2.3%.

Comic-Con Trailers: The Best of the Best, Ranked
Film, TV
All month-long we'll be featuring top five lists about either the Avengers or the X-Men. Here is an archive of all the past top five lists!
In this installment, based on a suggestion by Josh G., we take a look at the top five Wasp costumes…
First off, got to pay homage to Kirby's original…
This Herb Trimpe design circa 1972 is one of her most well-known outfits, but I dunno, it is basically just John Buscema's design from Avengers #53, just with a different color pattern that I don't think was even particularly great.
5. Avengers (Volume 3) #36
I think this Alan Davis design is quite snazzy.
4. Avengers #194
I always liked this George Perez design just for out there it is. It really is a daring design.
3. Avengers #53
The aforementioned Buscema design, this one basically defined the Wasp's styles for years to come…
2. Avengers Forever #1
Carlos Pacheco's design is so strong…
that with just some slight adjustments during Geoff Johns' run…
this costume has been perhaps the most-worn costume the Wasp has had. It's a really strong, modern look.
1. Avengers #267
I freely admit that this Buscema design is basically just an updated version of his classic Avengers #53 design, but there's just something so striking about the use of yellow and the dark blue that really stands out and I think it is no coincidence that Pacheco went for a similar approach with his design…
Does the fact that I associate this costume with such a great period in Avengers history help? Sure, but I still think it the Wasp's best costume.
That's the list! Agree? Disagree? Let me know!
No.1 is very chairwomanesque.
Yeah, I agree. In fact, the one downside is that it perhaps makes her look a BIT too matronly, but I think it works for her.
I got to say I think #3 should of been #1
oh and my opinion I hated #5 & #2
Was #4 white or some kinda shimmery silver sequin thing? Please say shimmery sequin thing.
I need to throw out some love for the green-and-purple number Jan wore during the original Secret Wars. It wasn't a particularly memorable costume *except* that she wore it for all 12 issues of the series–probably a record by Jan's standards at the time.
I always assumed Wasp was wearing her pajamas throughout Secret Wars.
#2 is perfect. Powerful, eye-catching, sexy without being sleazy.
I agree with everything except the Perez one. Yes it's daring but man is it ugly nonetheless.
I've always loved Perez's version and would rank it at #2, or even #1 on a personal basis. Any of the Buscema ones were cool, and worthy of the top spot. They're also likely to be the most conservative in Jan's long history of constant wardrobe changes. Davis made her look kind of regal with his own creation, so I like that as well.
Jan's haircut is also essential. The 1970's through Crossing era design is her signature look. There's a letters column from 1981 (might be issue #213 or so, but I'd have to check to be sure) where a fan sent in a detailed list of all the outfits Jan had worn since her debut up to the (then) present time. I think the reader even ranked each one as well, sort of like Mr. Blackwell.
#2 is the best one. I actually don't like that Buscema one because it makes her seem too old.
#5 is just kind of ugly.
Want a good honourable mention? She spent an issue wearing someone's handkerchief as they were wisked into space to face Moondragon. She had to stay small or… oops.
Her new costume in Uncanny Avengers is a nice combination of Kirby's classic and #1's color scheme.
There was an issue of Micronauts where she wore a napkin.
One fun thing about the Busiek/Perez run on Avengers is that Wasp wears a different costume in each story arc.
Aww, you could have gone for a top TEN here. I love Jan and her design changes over the years. Perez had the most fun with it.
The pointy-headed Kirby design should be #1. Otherwise, these are good picks.
That #1 looks really similar to Squirrel Girl, doesn't it?
Design number four, by George Perez, is one of my favorites. I guess Perez liked it a lot, as well, since he briefly brought it back during his run on Avengers volume 3.
I give it to No. 2. As Brian points out, she's probably worn that costume more than any other, and with good reason. It instantly says "wasp" when you look at it, but still looks very modern.
I do dig the retro outfit currently being worn in "Uncanny Avengers."
I'm also surprised the "Secret Wars" look didn't get a mention. But then, it's always how I think of Jan. It's the first time I saw her. And I believe she was getting "killed" at the time.
Thank you for not including the human/wasp hybrid look she was sporting during "The Gathering"…
The Secret Wars outfit was a simple matter of Mike Zeck essentially being "stuck" with whatever she was happening to be wearing in the Avengers at the time. It was a really garish outfit. Those shoulder pad things? Yeesh.
Interesting list. I am partial to the AVENGERS: EARTH'S MIGHTIEST HEROES design. The earphone/antenna headpiece was nifty.
For a character without anything close to one dominant look, there are clearly certain things that work better for The Wasp. The short hair (or even a pixie cut) is the core of her visual for me. She is attractive, but not sexualized. That is reinforced by the tendency to have her body covered from the neck down. That general modesty makes her occasional forays into the role of Reluctant Fanservice Girl (i.e. Micronauts #42) work. It also helps her project a level of authority when contrasted with the less modestly dressed female Avengers.
The Yellow and Black color scheme evokes an actual wasp, so it is kind of amazing how infrequently that it is used. Items 1,2 and 5 all make good use of the iconic color scheme.
The high necked tunic over the black tights reinforces her general modesty. It was present in the original Kirby design as well as selections 1 and 3. It also gives the feeling of being a defensive garment. That reinforces that Jan has always been the most physically vulnerable Avenger. She is a physically small person with the ability to get even smaller, so it makes sense that she would want clothes that protect her.
Yeah, it may not have been used in the comics, but I'd say her best look is her EMH design. GREAT look that emphasized the fun nature of the character.
#1 is THE Wasp costume for me.
But I do quite like the red Byrne costume with the black arrow design from the neck downwards.,
Partial to the Perez one (#4) from that Taskmaster storyline. I like most of the Perez ones (that orange one from the Korvac saga was fun, too).
I always wanted to see her in that purple one she shows Yellowjacket in #212 before Hank flips out and destroys it (in his abusive breakdown days).
I like the whole Wasp-always-has-a-different-costume thing. Kitty Pryde sort of tried that idea, but to much lesser effect. (any top five potential there?).
Most are fine, but that variation on #2 is awful. It looks like something a stripper with a scorpion fetish might decide to wear.
> http://images.mocpages.com/user_images/48287/1373078758m_SPLASH.jpg
I agree with Nemesis@ on this one. I was always partial to the blue & white costume she wore foe a while in the early 1990s.
Here is a question … What does Janet Van Dyne look like?
Seriously, her face and body shape vary from artist to artist pretty substantially. The most consistent thing is her hair color, but even it changes. Her height and weight are all over the place.
Kirby gave her a heart-shaped face and thin, pear shaped body. He made her maybe 3 inches shorter than Hank Pym at the shoulder.
Alan Davis kept the pear shaped body, but gave her an oblong face.
George Perez kept the heart shaped face, but gave her an hourglass figure.
John Buscema gave her a square face and an hourglass body. He also made her substantially shorter than her partner.
Carlos Pacheco gave her a square face and an apple shaped body.
Those are five great artists, but they were each drawing totally different women. I mean, we are not talking about details nose or eye shape. We are talking about the basic look of the character. It sort of amazes me that Editors seems totally free to dictate plot to writers, but utterly ignore keeping their characters on model. It seems as though the later is a much more essential function.
I do like how Jan is one of the few female heroes who are always dressed for action, from neck to toes. You won't see her fighting crime while in a fancy bathing suit, for years on end
Dean – my mental image of Jan isn't pictured here, but is generally a cross between a Byrne Jan from ca. Avengers (volume 1) #188 and a Perez/Vey Jan from Avengers (volume 3) #28. Petite, between 5'2" and her official 5'4″, roundish face, large eyes, small-breasted but not flatchested, slightly larger hip measurements.
The slightly smug looking Jan from the last panel of page 5 of (vol 3) #28 and how she appears through most of that issue is what Jan looks like to me.
Pacheco's a good alternate. I like the face Alan Davis gives her in (vol 3) #38, but I think he makes her too a little too skinny in that issue, and I don't particularly like the way he does her face and hair in later issues of his run.
My favorite Buscema Jan is the one from the Lady Liberator issues. There on the splash page, you've got the large expressive eyes I like Jan to have in artists' renditions.
Frank Cho's Jan in the early issues of Mighty Avengers was too well built, though lovely to look at, but I didn't think the Louise Brooks hairstyle worked on her. Jantron (Tony Stark's body rebuilt to house an Ultron with Jan's appearance) was a good looking woman, but not really based on the body I picture Jan having.
Early Perez tended to make all his women buxom. His early period renditions of Jan are a little too substantial physically, but I generally like his face for her in the 1977-80 period.
I could probably go on, but it wouldn't be that interesting.
I miss Jan in the Marvel movies. She is the heart and soul of the Avengers, she completes the team, as shown in EMH.
Till I looked it up it never really clicked how many color variations Wasp has had of different costumes, no more just different designs.

The Living Daylights (1987)
James Bond: Cheer up, Saunders. The operation is a success. And officially still yours.
Saunders: I have no intention of leaving it at that, Double-O-Seven! I'm reporting to M that you deliberately missed. Your orders were to *kill that sniper*!
James Bond: STUFF my orders! I only kill professionals. That girl didn't know one end of her rifle from the other. Go ahead. Tell M what you want. If he fires me, I'll thank him for it.
James Bond: [beat] Whoever she was, I must have scared the living daylights out of her.
Kara Milovy: What happened?
James Bond: He got the boot.
[after demonstrating a boom-box rocket launcher]
Q: [to Bond] Something we're making for the Americans. It's called a "Ghetto Blaster".
[after escaping out of a small jail cell]
Kara Milovy: You were fantastic. We're free.
James Bond: Kara, we're inside a Russian airbase in the middle of Afghanistan.
James Bond: I've come for Koskov.
Brad Whitaker: Hell, you can *have* him. As soon as I get my opium. Now where is it?
James Bond: Up in smoke.
Brad Whitaker: [incredulous] You burned up a half a billion bucks?
[Bond nods]
Brad Whitaker: That's too bad, Bond. You could've been a live rich man, instead of a poor dead one.
James Bond: You're *finished*, Whitaker! If the Russians don't get you, the Americans will!
Brad Whitaker: Nah. You know Meade should have taken another 35,000 casualties. Could have ended the rebellion right then and there. Hell, Grant would have done it.
[Whitaker manages to knock Bond off his feet, grab a machine gun and open fire on him]
Linda: [into phone] It's all so boring here, Margo - there's nothing but playboys and tennis pros.
Linda: If only I could find a real man.
[James Bond, having just dispatched an assassin in a burning truck in mid-air, lands on the boat with a smoldering parachute]
James Bond: I need to use your phone.
[takes it and says into it]
James Bond: She'll call you back.
Linda: You are who?
James Bond: Bond, James Bond.
[into phone]
James Bond: Exercise Control, 007 here. I'll report in an hour.
Linda: [offering drink] Won't you join me?
James Bond: [into phone] Better make that two.
[On Whitaker being crushed under a statue of the Duke of Wellington]
James Bond: He met his Waterloo.
General Georgi Koskov: I'm sorry, James. For you I have great affection, but we have an old saying: duty has no sweethearts.
James Bond: We have an old saying too, Georgi. And you're full of it.
James Bond: [Bond is pointing a gun at him] Get down on your knees. Put your hands behind your back.
Leonid Pushkin: You are professional. You do not kill without reason.
James Bond: 2 of our men are dead. Koskov's named you. Why should I disobey my orders?
Leonid Pushkin: I am in the dark as much as you. It is a question of trust. Who do you believe? Koskov, or me?
James Bond: If I trusted Koskov we wouldn't be talking. But as long as you're alive, we'll never know what he's up to.
Leonid Pushkin: [Slowly] Then I must die.
[last lines]
James Bond: You didn't think I'd miss this performance, did you?
[Bond kisses Kara passionately]
Kara Milovy: Oh, James!
Miss Moneypenny: That girl must be very talented.
James Bond: Believe me, my interest in her is purely professional.
James Bond: [after destroying his car] Glad I insisted you brought that cello.
James Bond: Just taking the Aston out for a spin, Q.
Q: Be careful, 007! It's just had a new coat of paint!
Brad Whitaker: How do you like my personal pantheon of great commanders?
Leonid Pushkin: Butchers.
Brad Whitaker: Surgeons. They cut away society's dead flesh.
Necros: [after Bond allegedly killed General Pushkin] I didn't kill him. Bond did.
General Georgi Koskov: I told you the British believed me. I told you!
Kara Milovy: [a police car had been cut with a laser] What happened?
James Bond: [mockingly] Salt corrosion.
[Referring to his machine gun vs Bond's hand gun]
Brad Whitaker: You've had your eight, now I have my eighty.
[Bond finds Whitaker playing with toy soldiers]
James Bond: Pickett's charge was up Cemetary Ridge, not Little Round Top.
Brad Whitaker: I'm reenacting the battle as I would have fought it. Meade was tenacious, but he was cautious. He missed his chances to crush Lee at Gettsyburg.
[James Bond and Kara Milovy snow-slide through customs in a cello case]
James Bond: [yelling] We have nothing to declare.
Kara Milovy: [yelling] Except this cello.
[the word 'cello' echoes through the valley a few times]
[struggling with Kara's cello]
James Bond: Why didn't you learn the violin?
General Georgi Koskov: The sniper was a woman.
James Bond: I noticed.
General Georgi Koskov: Some of the best KGB shots are women.
James Bond: Um-hum.
General Georgi Koskov: Did you...
James Bond: I'd rather not talk about it.
General Georgi Koskov: [thinking Bond killed her] Oh, no. Of course not.
James Bond: Lovely girl with the cello.
Saunders: Forget the ladies for once, Bond.
Leonid Pushkin: Put him on the next plane to Moscow...
General Georgi Koskov: Oh, thank you General, thank you so much...
Leonid Pushkin: ...in the diplomatic bag.
James Bond: [in the Aston Martin] I had a few optional extras installed.
James Bond: Relax Georgi. Our engineers have spent months perfecting this.
General Georgi Koskov: How many times have you done this before?
James Bond: You're the first!
Kara Milovy: I owe everything to Georgi: my place at the Conservatoire, my Strad...
James Bond: Your cello's a Stradivarius?
Kara Milovy: A famous one! The Lady Rose.
James Bond: [incredulous] Quite a present.
Leonid Pushkin: [Bond gets the drop on Pushkin] I take this is not a social call, 007.
James Bond: Correct.
[referring to flowers]
James Bond: You should have brought lilies.
Leonid Pushkin: May I ask why?
James Bond: Smiert Spionum.
Leonid Pushkin: Smiert Spionum? Was a Beria operation, in Stalin's time. It was deactivated 20 years ago.
James Bond: Two of our men are dead.
Leonid Pushkin: My condolences. We had nothing to do with it.
[after successfully allowing Bond to get away by seducing the supervisor, she throws him off her]
Rosika Miklos: [in Czech] What kind of girl do you think I am?
[after removing his disguise]
Kamran Shah: Thank you both for your help. My name is Kamran Shah. Please forgive the theatricals, it's a hangover from my Oxford days.
Kara Milovy: You dumb, stupid, stubborn, zadnyaya chast' loshadi!
James Bond: What's that supposed to mean?
Kara Milovy: Back end of horse!
James Bond: Are you calling me a horse's arse?
[Bond and Saunders meet for the first time]
Saunders: Saunders. Head of Section "V" Vienna. You're *bloody* late. This is a mission, not a fancy dress ball.
James Bond: We have time.
[first lines]
M: Gentlemen, this may only be an exercise so far as the Ministry of Defence is concerned. But for me, it is a matter of pride that the 00 section has been chosen for this test. Your objective is to penetrate the radar installations of Gibralter. Now, the SAS has been placed on full alert to intercept you, but I know you won't let me down. Good luck, men.
[Bond and Saunders are discussing the change of plans on Koskov's defection]
General Georgi Koskov: James. James Bond!
James Bond: [hugging Koskov] Later, General!
James Bond: [to Saunders] Lose them. I'll pick you up at the border, twenty-three hundred hours. Be there.
Saunders: Where are you taking him? How will you get him out?
James Bond: Sorry, old man, section 26, paragraph 5. Need-to-know. Sure you understand.
James Bond: Don't think. Just let it happen.
[Saunders has just been assassnated]
Kara Milovy: Did you hear?
James Bond: Hear from Georgi?
James Bond: Yes, I *got* the message.
Kamran Shah: Russkie. Has Colonel Feydor considered my appeal?
Jailer: Yes. Good news. You won't be hung in the morning. You will be SHOT!
Kamran Shah: It's all a mistake. I stole NOTHING!
Jailer: You can tell Allah. When you see him.
General Georgi Koskov: [seeing the Huey] Who's that for?
Necros: You, Comrade!
[knocks him out with his gun]
Necros: [to third man present] Help him or I'll kill you both!
Kara Milovy: I've been such a fool.
James Bond: [grasping her hand and squeezing it] We both have.
James Bond: I'm posing as Koskov's friend to see what leads I can get from her. You know he bought her a cello in New York, called "The Lady Rose".
Saunders: A cello with a name?
James Bond: It's a Stradivarius.
James Bond: [when Saunders looks none the wiser] They *all* have names. Now where would Koskov get that kind of money? Check it out.
Rosika Miklos: Remember, when this says 100, turn this. Not before.
[starts to leave]
James Bond: Where are you going?
Rosika Miklos: To take care of the supervisor. When pig goes, his control panel will light up like christmas tree.
Jailer: I have not had a woman prisoner in a very long time.
Jailer: Strip!
[Kara curses at him]
Jailer: Shout all you want. It's soundproof. The Colonel does not like to hear screaming at night.
[Bond bends down to pick up his key ring; he hits Bond with a club]
Jailer: I did not tell you to get down.
[Bond starts to rise, but he hits him again]
Jailer: I did not tell you to get UP!
Jailer: NOW! Get up!
James Bond: [referring to man who beats up another man] Hope he's not invited to dinner.
Felix Leiter: Just what the hell are you trying to do, 007? Start World War III?
James Bond: Felix Leiter. Now what's the CIA doing here?
Felix Leiter: Nice work girls.
Linda: No hard feelings?
James Bond: Just as long as the party's still on.
Kamran Shah: [men threaten Bond and Kara]
[talks in different language]
James Bond: What did you tell them?
Kamran Shah: I tell them you not Russian. They no kill you now.
Kara Milovy: Not now? How about later?

I have been enjoying women's panties for years now. I have probably pilfered over 100 pairs (why do they call it a "pair").
I have gotten them from my HOT niece, dates, at strangers homes,
personal aquaintences, etc. I love the smell of a woman's p**** and I love to sniff a fragrant pair while I,m spanking my monkey. The odor makes me ejactulate my baby batter even harder.
I only like to enjoy panties from girls that I know or have seen. That is really important. An anonymous pair does not turn me on at all.
I also love it when they have some skidmarks. NOT a big streak of s***, but a nice subtle skid streak. I don't like the smell of s***, but that b*** smell that is present after wearing them for a couple days is really exiciting to me.
I also enjoy wearing them occasionally after the odor bouquet has dissapated. It makes me feel naughty and sexy to be wearing a thong while I'm shopping or drinking beers wuth the guys. I am not a pantywaist. I was a varsity wrestler in school and on occasion have kicked the s*** out of some a****** that desperatley deserved it
I know there are others out there who enjoy panties as much as I do. Let's here from you and the details of your scores.

Im there with you. It sucks because it just something we can't control, no matte4 how hard we try. I buy mine now. Just started after thowing all them away. Hard habit to kick.
I also love panties, like once I went to a friends house and took some of his sisters panties out of the dryer.

HINGHAM – The former First Church of Christ Scientist on Main Street will be converted into a single-family home.
At its meeting Thursday night, the town's historic districts commission gave final approval for renovation of the building, which is in the Hingham Centre Local Historic District.
Architect Can Tiryaki of Tiryaki Architectural Design of Cohasset said the wood-frame building, which sits on about a half-acre of land, will be made into a four-bedroom home with an enclosed three-car garage by its new owner, Joe Curran.
"The front of the building is essentially remaining the same, including the steeple," he said.
Tiryaki said the church building was built in 1938 and later added to twice.
The steeple will be undergoing some changes, including recladding the top of the cupola in copper and enclosing the open space with windows, Tiryaki said.
He said the auditorium portion of the church will become an open-style living area.
Tiryaki said this is the first time he's worked on converting a church into a residence.
"It certainly had its challenges," he said.
Thursday night's meeting was the last of several meetings the commission has held to review the plans. No one appeared in opposition.
Commission Chairman Hans von der Luft said the commission plans to keep a close eye on the work.
"We're very interested in this project," he said.
Curran did not attend Thursday night's meeting.
Tiryaki said he hopes obtain a building permit as soon as possible.
The church put the property on the market last year. The congregation now holds its Sunday services at the Old Colony Lodge on Central Street and maintains a reading room at 18 North St.
It became the latest Christian Science congregation in the area to sell off its church building in the last couple of decades.
A Quincy church on Greenleaf Street was sold about three years ago to the Woodward School, which now uses the building as a drama center. In Braintree, a Seventh-Day Adventist congregation acquired the Washington Street church two decades ago.

The sweet, earthy flavors of carrots and peas temper the kick of Jamaican jerk seasoning in these Caribbean-inspired patties. For even speedier preparation, use pre-grated carrots, available in most supermarkets. To make fresh breadcrumbs, trim and discard crusts from firm, fresh sandwich bread. Tear bread into pieces, and whirl in a food processor or blender until crumbs form. One slice makes about 1/2 cup. The salsa can be made ahead and kept in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

The batter for these "burgers" is soft, so turn the patties carefully. As the cheese cools, the patties firm up. Treat these "burgers" to all the trimmings: coleslaw, pickles, sliced tomatoes and onions, and relish and ketchup.

Chicken and Roasted Red Bell Pepper Ciabatta Pizzas
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 45 mins
This is a quick, tasty meal that provides a simple alternative to traditional pizza. You can add toppings to suit your preferences! Feel free to also add fresh herbs- basil would work beautifully!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 fresh ciabatta, loaf (or you could use ciabatta rolls) (10oz)
- 2 small red bell peppers
- 7.39 ml olive oil
- 118.29 ml pizza sauce
- 29.58 ml sun-dried tomato paste
- 236.59 ml cooked chicken breast, sliced
- 354.88 ml grated mozzarella cheese
- Preheat the oven to 350°F or 180°C.
- Remove the tops and seeds from the red bell peppers and cut the flesh into strips (8-12 strips per pepper).
- Put the peppers on a baking tray, drizzle over the olive oil and bake in the oven for about 30 minutes, until soft and slightly blackened around the edges.
- Meanwhile, prepare the rest of the pizzas- cut the ciabatta loaf in half and then halve again lengthwise (or if using rolls, halve them). You should now have four bases to work with.
- Mix the pizza sauce with the sundried tomato paste and spread evenly over the ciabatta bases.
- Share 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese between the bases.
- Top with the chicken and, when cooked, the red peppers.
- Top with the remaining cheese.
- Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, until warmed through and the cheese has completely melted.
- Serve hot!
Most Helpful
This is very yummy! I didn't have the sun dried tomato paste so I just chopped up some sun dried tomatoes as finely as I could and used that. I also didn't do the best job of reading the directions and put all the cheese on the bottom layer instead of dividing it between top and bottom. Oh well! Still tasted delish :)
Who doesn't love fresh-roasted red peppers and cheese? These were fantastic little pizzas. I loved the addition of sundried tomato paste to the sauce. It really added a beautiful sweetness and depth. I used a pizza cheese blend instead of straight mozzarella (to please DH) and added a bit of fresh torn basil once baked. Lovely and oh-so simple!
This is fantastic. Just fantastic!!! We are raving about this, mmmmmmmmm. I made one sub - had to use gluten-free bread for the crust due to allergies. I used leftover homemade sundried tomato paste that I had whipped up earlier this week for use Penne Al'arrabiatta. Thank you for sharing!! I sense there will be a fight over the leftovers later ;) ZWT7

Working with the latest version of NextGEN Gallery, I am using the following code in my template files:
<?php $showgallery = '[gallery=1]';
$showgallery = apply_filters('the_content', $showgallery );
echo $showgallery; ?>
Current settings allow for 5 thumbnails to be viewed on the category page (?cat=#). This particular gallery has over 30 images, so below the thumbnails, a list of page numbers appear that link to 'nggpage=#'.
The problem however, is that despite what page number is clicked, only page 1 is shown. Pages two and afterwards cannot. So, if I click on page 2 or 3 etc., I see the page link change to '?cat=3&nggpage=2' or whatever page, but I still only see the images of page 1.
How can I fix this so that a viewer can flip through the pages within the template?

Hopefully you wonderful people will be able to help me out.
There is a specific theme I am looking for
it's of a guy holding a cardboard, under the cardboard you see bare feet, on top you see the guy's face, which you can put your own face (cut out / insert face/head here).
I remember finding this themes ages ago. I tried every possible tag/keyword I can think of but it isn't here.
I need that theme for a project that I am doing (it involves homeless people and city services).
THANK YOU SO MUCH if you can help me.

Customer Reviews
Long-lasting pigment
- I own 3 shades of these and I plan to buy every other shade! Really nice and moisturizing with long-lasting color. I have gotten a lot of compliments when wearing this.
Comfort Clear
- Solid lip balm. Lightweight & moisturizing...not at all sticky. Always carry in my makeup bag now.
- I just bought the coral and ripe raspberry from target because I got a gift card. OMG, its soon pretty! It's nice and smooth. Usually I have chappy lips and it my skin tends to peel off when I wear normal chapsticks but this one is moisturizing and it smells good. It's affordable too! I wanna try some other colors but my target ran out of the prettier colors...
Great balm
- I got the Natural Rose lip balm and the color is just right for me. I'm fair skinned and the color looks natural on me. The color is very close to what you see online.
Soft Peach
- Wow - this is so stunning! It is a very natural soft peachy nude type shade with a little pink (enough to make it flattering and not orangey). I love the formula, very soft and comfortable on the lips. It is quite opaque - I have a few large freckles on my lips and this fully covers them. Highly recommend - especially for such a fair price!
Would buy again!
- Great color and makes my lips feel great!
Smooth as Silk and color lasts!!
- Love this now buying it in other colors!!
VERY Orange
- I purchased this in Coral Crush, which was probably an oversight on my part because I never like orangey colors on myself. However, it is VERY orange (barely any pink.) Luckily it's sheer enough that it's still pretty wearable.
Loving the Natural Rose
- I have been using the Natural Rose lip balm as my lipstick every day since I picked it up a month ago. I have since gotten another as back up because I don't want to be without this. The color is soo flattering on my medium skin tone and just accents any makeup look and blush. The feel and vanilla scent of these on my lips is such a treat and the staying power is better than my much more expensive lipsticks, much less lip balm. I will keep purchasing these because the ingredients are really good and the price is so right.
- Dipped my toe in the water with the Sweet Peach ... was initially put off by the colour when I opened it (ordered on line) but then tried it on! It's not too peachy (I'm pale skinned, freckles and dark hair) but just enough colour to look like a lipstick. Like the feel of it, very moisturising, and it does actually stay. Loved it so much I ended up buying Pixi Pink and Natural Rose (which has now become my go-to colour!). Pixi Pink gives a great pop of colour but can be played down if you want - don't be scared of the pink!!!

Unions Want IMDB To Stop Putting Actors' Ages
IMDb.com has the wrong age for me -- they actually make me older than I really am, and you're just gonna have to believe me on that.
I tried to change it, but gave up, finding it too difficult to do so and ultimately not caring that much.
And I've generally found it a breath of fresh air that they list actors' birthdates (their correct ones, I hope).
With all the lies and evasions out there, it seems to level the playing field and just say, "Here's how old they are. Deal with it."

But the actors' unions vehemently disagree, and they're always worth listening to.
SAG and AFTRA have been begging imdb to remove the birthdates.
As a press release says:
"An actor's actual age is irrelevant to casting. What matters is the age range that an actor can portray. For the entire history of professional acting, this has been true, but that reality has been upended by the development of IMDb as an industry standard used in casting offices across America.
"IMDb publishes the actual dates of birth of thousands of actors without their consent, most of them not celebrities but rank-and-file actors whose names are unknown to the general public.
"When their actual ages then become known to casting personnel, the 10+ year age range that many of them can portray suddenly shrinks, and so do their opportunities to work."
Point taken -- but is the way to get more work for actors simply to cover up how old they really are?

Beautiful. Is this really how you write mercy? Could you do one for kindness? I might just have to use this in a tattoo, if that's ok with you. I want to get a halo, dog and cat paw print, and then either mercy or kindness in japanese.
