W. H. Auden:
This is an indispensable reference guide to the works of one of the most important poets of the twentieth century. W. H. Auden's writing is notoriously complex--full of puzzling allusions and shaped by influences as diverse as Old English poetry and Auden's own theory of psychosomatic illness. To help readers understand Auden's work, the poet and scholar John Fuller examines all of Auden's published poems, plays, and libretti, leaving out only some juvenilia. In unprecedented detail, he reviews the works' publishing history, paraphrases difficult passages, and explains allusions. He points out interesting variants (including material abandoned in drafts), identifies sources, looks at verse forms, and offers critical interpretations. Along the way, he presents a wealth of facts about Auden's works and life that are available in no other publication.
The book is a major revision of Fuller's critically acclaimed Reader's Guide to Auden, published in 1970. It contains more than twice the material of that earlier volume. Fuller organizes the book on the basis of the individual collections that Auden himself originally published, with sections of "uncollected" work interwoven. Clear, meticulously researched, and carefully designed for ease of use, it is an essential guide for anyone interested in Auden's remarkable and sometimes elusive writing.
"Nobody who wants a richer understanding of this great but often willful poet can dispense with Fuller's assistance."--Frank Kermode, The New Republic
"The entries--this is a work of reference--are marvels of wit, tact, learning, and connoisseurship. Some articles seem definitive. . . . Fuller's commentary bears a family resemblance to scientific, lyrical compendia such as Burton's Anatomy of Melancholy. The odd detail dances in amber sunbeams, translucent, and symbolic."--Tom D'Evelyn, Boston Book Review
"W. H. Auden: A Commentary is a meticulous labor of love and scholarship."--Roger Kimball, The New Criterion
"Auden's criticism is exceptional in its depth and breadth. He thoughtfully comments on almost all the plays as well as the sonnets. . . . Readers will admire Kirsch's Auden. It is quite possible that they will like him, too."--Joseph Sullivan, The World and I
"Fuller's book is a deeply impressive and valuable achievement that has no real equal in the critical literature on any modern poet. It explains thousands of allusions in all of Auden's plays and poems--and covers virtually all of Auden's published work, not only the poems that he collected. But it is not simply the work of a source-hunter. It is the work of a scholar and successful poet, who can write illuminatingly about verse form and poetic tone as well as about sources and influences. In almost every case, Fuller makes the poems he writes about more enjoyable to read, not merely more comprehensible. It is an astonishingly full guide to reading and research that will remain the main reference work on Auden for many decades."--Edward Mendelson, Editor of The Complete Works of W. H. Auden (Princeton)

Travis Barker attended the American Idol 2013 finale last Thursday (May 16) with his children Landon, 9, and Alabama, 7. Atiana Cecilia de la Hoya, 14, also went with them.
Atiana is the daughter of Shanna Moakler and Oscar de la Hoya.
The drummer cancelled touring with Blink 182 in Australia because he is still afraid to fly. In 2008 he survived the plane crash that claimed the lives of four passengers, including his friend and assistant Chris Baker and security guard Che Still.
He wrote on his Facebook page: "I'm sorry to announce i won't be joining Blink-182 on this Australian tour. I still haven't gotten over the horrific events that took place the last time i flew when my plane crashed and 4 people were killed, two being my best friends. I gave the band my blessing to take another drummer if they still wanted to do the tour without me. I hope to come to Australia again some day perhaps by ship if need be. Unfortunately, there wasn't a boat that worked with the schedule this time around. Once again I'm sorry to all the fans."

The Duchess of Cambridge still hasn't sat for a magazine cover (much, I imagine, to every fashion editor's dismay), but that hasn't stopped an outpouring of Kate Middleton features. British Vogue celebrate her style evolution in the February 2013 issue with a brilliantly titled article, Katepedia: A Study In Royal Style, and it's a great read!
Fashion journalist, Lisa Armstrong, was set the mighty task of analysing Kate's style for the fashion bible, and the eight-page feature offers up a lot of information. My favourite detail, though, is the fact Kate apparently has short legs. I can't say I've ever noticed, but according to an anonymous designer she's mastered the art of eleongating her pins:
"Pre-pregnancy, she never failed to accentuate her tiny waist. Although as one (anonymous) designer points out, she favours a slightly raised waist because – they claim – she has a long body and relatively short legs. What? Short legs? Kate Middleton? I looked and looked again. And blow me down, the designer's absolutely right – her dresses all sit a centimetre or two above her natural waist. I can't vouch for the long body. That's how successful the raised-waist tactic is."
I don't know about you, but I'm now off to study pictures of Kate to see if this is true. And I will be using this trick myself if it is! I have a long body and "relatively short legs" too, so if it works for the future queen I'm sure it will work for me…

All I can say is that I truly love Goody Spin Pins.
I bought a packet of 2 for less than £6 over a year ago from Boots. And while this may seem expensive, I have used this same pair of pins at least 5 out of 7 days a week ever since I bought them. They're still in great condition.
For my day to day activities, going to work, at the gym and around the house, I prefer to have my long curly hair up and out of the way. My preferred hair style is a quick and easy bun. And with these pins it has never been easier. Just twist my hair in to a bun and screw one pin in from one side, and another pin on the other side so that the pins cross over each other. I advise keeping the pins as close to your scalp as possible. Just 2 pins for my waist length curly hair, and my bun remains in place no matter what I do, until I remove the pins myself. And the pins screw out so easily too. No hair gets pulled out. There is no tugging, or tangles or battling at the end of the day.
Even after an intense workout at the gym, my hair will not have moved at all.
I would recommend the Goody Spin Pins to anyone who is looking for a fast way to put their hair up and keep it up. No fuss.
Goody Simple Styles Spin Pins (dark hair shade)
I have been looking for a product like this for a while, and now the brand goody is available to buy in boots. This brand is an American brand, which is not very widely available in the uk but it is now available in boots - so I have now purchased a few of their products, including these.
- What is a spin pin?
A spin pin is a metal coil which is about 6cm in length. This product does look a little strange and like some kind of medieval torture device but it is a great product. It looks like a spring and it is a bobble/hair tie substitute - you can use this product instead of a bobble when putting your hair up into a bun. It is metal and rigid so it does not move and you just twist it into your bun and it will hold your hair in place securely without bobbles or hair pins/clips!
- About the product
You get two spin pins in each pack (I think you should get more in a pack but you do only get two) and you can get them in a couple of colours, to match your hair colour. I have the dark hair spin pins, as I have dark brown hair and this shade will also work well for black hair as well I think. This product is fairly new and I have only seen these products in boots but they are also available in asda I believe. Each pack contains some instructions and ways in which you can use the spin pins - such as a soft spin, side soft spin and a double spin.
- Using the spin pins
I bought these a couple of days ago and I have used them everyday since I bought them - although I was not sure about buying them as my hair is quite long (down to the small of my back) and it is fairly thick and I didn't think these would hold my hair. I bought them anyway, as using bobbles to put my hair up into a bun is a nightmare as they never stay in place and they always leave a kink/line in my hair. Firstly I just brush through my hair as I find it helps the spin pins to twist through my hair easier if my hair is smooth and tangle free. I then start to twist my hair into a bun, which is not as easy as it sounds with my hair as it is again fairly thick and long. Once my hair is in a bun shape I just hold the bun in place with one hand and take one of the spin pins. I find that the shade for dark hair is a really good match for my hair colour and it blends in really well with my hair so it you can not see any part of the spin pin when it is in place. I position the spin pin over the excess section of hair that is loose and not secured and I just twist the pin into the bun - it is that simple. You just twist the spin pin into your bun until it is all the way through your bun. I then take the second spin pin and twist it through the another side of my bun to make it fully secure - you may only need one spin pin, it depends on how long your hair is and also how thick your hair is. I use two spin pins every time I put my hair up into a bun and they keep my hair in a bun well - the spin pins do not fall out, they are not visible as they are inside the bun, they match my hair colour well and my bun stays in place even if I jump/run around! I had some doubts about purchasing this product but I now really like these spin pins, I thought that they might hurt when I twist them into my hair but they do not hurt, they don't really pull on my hair and they are also really easy to remove. To remove the spin pins you just locate them in your bun and twist them so they they slide out easily - this only take a few seconds. I like the look these spin pins give, as they are basically invisible when they are in my bun, it makes my bun looks chic and effortless - a look which bobbles do not give in my opinion.
- Overall positives
Overall, I really like these spin pins as they do not hurt when I twist them into my bun, they match my hair colour well and they are hidden in the bun so they are not visible. They hold my hair in a bun really well and the bun feels really secure too - which is surprising as I didn't think the two spin pins would hold all of my hair, but they do. The spin pins are very easy and quick to use and they are easy to remove. They do not create a kink/line in my hair like bobbles/hair ties do, so I can keep my hair in a bun all day and then I can take the spin pins out and my hair will be wavy and line free.
- Overall negatives
The only negative points I have about this product is that they are a little bit expensive. They are priced at £4.99 and you only get two in a pack, which is not good if like me you are very good at loosing hair pins and bobbles.
- Price and availability
I bought this pack of two from a large boots store and as far as I am aware they are only available in large boots stores - you can not buy them from boots.com. I think they are also available in asda stores too. They are a great product but they are not very widely available in the UK unfortunately.
*Easy to put in your hair and they are also easy to remove
*Good match for my hair colour
*They keep my hair in a bun for ages - without the need for any other hair product such as bobbles or hair pins
*They do not create a kink or line in my hair like bobbles do
*Instructions/diagrams of ways in which you can use these pins is easy to follow and fairly useful
*Keeps my hair in a bun all day and it feels like my hair is very secure
*Price - and you only get two spin pins in a pack
Thank you for reading my review - this review is already posted on ciao under my username labellavita1992
I first saw Spin Pins (or at least something very similar to them) on a YouTube hair tutorial around a year and a half ago. I thought they sounded like a great idea but I couldn't find anything like them for sale in the UK. I was therefore absolutely delighted, when waiting for a flight, I found them in the little Claire's Accessories at the airport. I've owned them for about three months now and I get a huge amount of use from them, so thought I'd share my experience.
The spin pins are manufactured by Goody and look like bobby pins which have been twisted. The benefit of using these pins over the standard bobby pin is simply that they have so much more hold - in fact just one of these pins is said to have the hold of 20 bobby pins. My hair is not only long but very thick, so I have always had a problem putting it up into any style other than a simple pony tail as it would fall and droop. Even something as simple as a bun used to take a huge amount of time and pins to keep in place, so this product really appealed to me.
You get two pins in a box and there are instructions and suggested hair styles printed onto the box. The pins come in brown and blonde (there may be more colour options but these are the only ones I've seen), so that you can match the pin colour to your hair, hopefully minimising the chance of the pins being seen.
To use these you simply put your hair up into whatever style you fancy (suggested ones on the box are a bun, side bun or top knot), then twist the pin - which is a couple of inches long - clockwise into the hair. They twist in really easily and the ends are covered with a rubbery material so they don't hurt the head. I most often use these to hold my hair into a bun - a style which used to take me hours, but can be done in minutes with the aid of these pins. Once they're in you can't see them and just the two pins are required to keep my thick hair in place.
Aside from how quickly I can now do my hair, the other great thing about these is the hold. If I use these pins, my hair never droops or falls out, or looks like it has collapsed - it will last in the style I choose until the end of the night - something no other product has ever managed! To remove the pins afterwards you just untwist them anti-clockwise.
I paid £4.99 for these from Claire's Accessories, they are also available from Boots for the same price.
Overall, I would strongly recommend these. If you have thick hair or you find your hair doesn't stay up they are fabulous. They really hold the hair, they're simple to use and are reasonably priced too. 100% recommended.

Lionshead's new park combines art and play
September 21, 2013
VAIL — Vail is home to pirate ships, towering steel men and now, giant birds' nests.
The town's kids are getting a new playground at Lionshead Park, located in a plaza tucked between Vail Ski Tech and Billy's Island Grill. But this will be no run-of-the-mill city park — the pieces of wood and steel going into the new public area create a jungle gym incorporating a rock climbing wall and giant birds' nests, designed by artist and architect Mike Moore, of Tres Birds studio in Denver. The art and playground equipment will join a new pop-jet foundation that was installed earlier this spring to complete a new play spot for families.
The park will join several other custom playgrounds doubled as art installations in Vail, including the pirate ship jungle gym located next to Vail Village's Gondola One, and Red Sandstone Park, featuring a playground made up of large steel figures "lifting" and "moving" a series of huge boxes and spools.
"We've been building our own playgrounds for 40 years or so," said town landscape architect Gregg Barrie. "Our whole playground program has been very well received. There are very few communities that still build their own playgrounds. It's the uniqueness and something different Vail can offer instead of catalog playgrounds, which can be more generic. This speaks to a world-class resort. And it's not just for visitors — we know the locals love our playgrounds as well."
The only thing missing …
Town planners said they have been looking for a way to create a park at Lionshead for a while, but struggled to work around building and use restrictions. The area already boasts the amenities of a big park — hiking trails on Vail Mountain, a bike path, skate park and ice skating rink at the Arrabelle — but is lacking a play area.

"It was missing cost-free children's activity that would draw families into Lionshead, a reason to hang out and play, as well as draw business and activity to the heart of the village," Barrie said.
The town chose a space called Sun Dial Plaza that used to be a small green space for the site of the new park. The project, with the playground, climbing rock, fountain, snowmelt pavement, a new stairway and railings connecting the area to the pedestrian overpass bridge, will cost $850,000.
On Sept. 24, cranes will lower the wood-and-steel "birds' nests" in place, connected by rope bridges and slides. The climbing wall construction will begin Oct. 15 and expected to be completed by Nov. 7.
Barrie said the previously neglected space will get a new name, possibly through a public naming contest, once the park is completed.
A unique concept
The concept for the playground began when the town put out a call for designers for the project. Moore and Tres Birds caught the town's attention with its unique and modern portfolio. The Denver-based firm has tackled projects ranging from public art installations to designing Burton stores around the world.
While Tres Birds had never built a playground before, the town council and Art in Public Places board knew that the firm would be able to come up with something unique and see it through to completion.
"They're known for being wonderfully innovative in contemporary detail and design," said Doe Browning, chair of the Art in Public Places board. "We basically said, 'Knock our socks off. We won't tell you what to do. We won't give you a theme.' They came back with the concept of the nests, and we loved it."
If birds' nests in a playground are hard to imagine, it's understandable. Moore's "nests" are less stick-like and more graceful, mimicking the shape of a closed flower. They're functional as well — they'll connect play bridges and slides, and kids can run and climb on them.
Browning called Lionshead a "family Mecca," and said that the idea of families and nests fit perfectly.
"I've lived in Lionshead for 14 years, and my impression is that it is packed with families. It's stroller to stroller there. I think this park will bring a lot to Lionshead," Browning said.

Spending by households and companies is showing no signs of picking up, highlighting what the Reserve Bank of Australia described last week as "cautious" behaviour by consumers.
An index of spending across the economy compiled by Commonwealth Bank of Australia was unchanged in October after weakening for the previous 10 months, according to a report released yesterday.
The gauge has slumped 3.9 per cent in trend terms over the past year, the biggest annual fall since the data was first collected six years ago.
"It's very clear that recovery in spending across the Australian economy remains elusive," CommSec chief economist Craig James said. "Consumers remain very selective and continue to shop for bargains, so retailers will continue to face downward pressure on margins."
The findings of CBA's spending index mirrors the weakness shown in the retail sales numbers compiled by the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
September retail sales rose by just 0.3 per cent from August, matching the slowest gain in six months and well below the 0.5 per cent expected by economists, according to the ABS.
Spending in cafes and restaurants and on takeaway food dropped by 0.4 per cent, while department store sales fell by 0.2 per cent.
"Consumers remain cautious in their spending," RBA deputy governor
Mr Battellino said the frugal behaviour of consumers was "probably no bad thing".
The RBA has previously warned that the Australian economy doesn't have enough capacity to allow both mining and consumption to grow strongly without stoking inflation.
The ABS will release retail sales figures for October in early December.

By any measure, Mel B – AKA Scary Spice – has had a huge career. She has sold over 80 million records as part of the Spice Girls while competing on "Dancing With The Stars" and judging Australian versions of "The X Factor" and "America's Got Talent." The English pop and television star stopped in San Francisco to chat with Fernando and Greg about her new single and life post-Spice Girls.
Mel professed that there was never a letdown after the huge success of the Spice Girls. The reason was that she and her band mates always saw the Spice Girls as an on going project.
"We kind of set our own rules. So we knew that after this tour we were going to take a break… we're gonna have six months off," explained Mel B. "Eventually we were all going to do our own thing."
The versatile performer went straight from "Dancing With The Stars" to working with the rest of the Spice Girls on their reunion for the 2102 London Olympics. A reunion that much like before will not mark the end of her work as Scary Spice.
"I'm sure we're going to be doing more stuff in the future," Revealed Mel B. "When that is going to happen, I have no idea."
The biggest obstacle for the five stars is finding the time to record, rehearse, and tour while balancing their personal lives and still-thriving careers.
"Emma got her radio show in the UK. Geri (is) over in Sydney doing 'Australia's Got Talent'. Mel C. just released a single. Victoria obviously got her great fashion show. We're all kind of all over the place, but we all manage to link up. And we're still friends, which is nice."
Mel B's lips were sealed when it came to the most famous spouse in the Spice World – namely David and Victoria Beckham's love life.
"Obviously she has told me [about David in bed]. But she would kill me," Mel deflected. "I can't do that to my homegirl."
She also reflected on the wild times that the girls had at the height of their popularity.
"Thank God, it is not like the press intensity that it is now. Back then, we would have been in a lot of trouble; at least I would have been in a lot of trouble anyway."

Here's something you don't see every day: LeBron James fouling out of a big playoff game. It had happened just once before in his career, and led to "Joey Crawford," "David Stern" and "bad call" all trending on Twitter. As great as this game was, the officiating was comical down the stretch, and it was so bad they couldn't even get plays right on replay (the David West/Ray Allen loose ball in particular).
The Dwyane Wade travel call was pretty bad — it wasn't a travel, just a slow step-back — the replay decisions were idiotic, but this sixth foul on LeBron was just a little crazy. Lance Stephenson sold it well enough, yet they could make this call every time down if they really wanted to. Just super bad timing on this one.
On a scale of 1-10, how bad were the refs?

NHK will launch Japan's first 24-hour international broadcasting service on Feb. 2.
NHK World TV will provide international news in English, with a focus on Japan and Asia. It will be available in some 70 countries and regions via satellite, cable TV and the Internet.
"We aim to reach 110 million households around the world by March," NHK Vice President Yoshinori Imai said Wednesday.
Yoshinori said NHK will "join the ranks of CNN International and BBC World Service" with this new channel and hopes to "earn a reputation for strong coverage of Japan and Asia news."
In addition to 30-minute news bulletins every hour, NHK World TV will run features and documentaries — some made for the service and others translated from existing NHK shows — covering business, culture and other aspects of Japan.
In a twist, some of the original programs will be produced by major commercial television networks, according to Hatsuhisa Takashima, CEO and president of Japan International Broadcasting Inc., the NHK subsidiary that will handle distribution of the new channel. These programs will run with commercials alongside NHK's noncommercial shows.
"We want the networks to compete with each other to create better programs, to allow world viewers to understand Japan better," Takashima said. "We believe that the TV commercials themselves will show today's Japan to the world."
The service will not be available to viewers in Japan, partly due to broadcasting laws, but Takashima said he hoped this would change in "the not-too-distant future" because there have been many inquiries about the channel from foreign residents and Japanese who are studying English.

Tactics and philosophies can be adapted and changed at the drop of a hat. Hopefully Moyes will start to play to the strengths of the side rather than continue stubbornly with an outdated formation that isn't working. The biggest problem Moyes faces is keeping control of a dressing room full of champions.
Anyone catch that Keane v Vieira documentary the other week? If you've watched any football on ITV recently, you'll have seen national village idiot Adrian Chiles repeatedly flatulating over it like some sort of gammon whoopee cushion, each time turning to simper at sweet-tempered Roy with the distinct air of a man doing everything in his meagre powers to avoid having his intestines used to hoist the boom.

A village cricket club is 150 not out.
East and West Hendred Cricket Club has played out thousands of overs and generations of villagers have hit thousands of runs since it was formed in 1862.
Ivan Mulford, club secretary and groundsman, has been involved with the club since 1978.
And he said it had become a key part of the village over the years.
He said: "Like any village that has a church and a community centre, the sports ground is all part of the village infrastructure.
"It's a lively and vibrant place that caters for young and old alike. It's not only those playing – lots of people come down to watch.
"We now have grandfathers who come to watch their sons and grandsons play. There are three generations of players either watching or playing."
He said the club was run by volunteers and supported by fundraising which made it an even more impressive milestone.
The club has about 100 members, with four adult teams and three junior teams for under-11s, under-13s and under-15s.
Members also coach youngsters at the village schools St Amand's and the Hendred Primary.
Charlie Mulford, club captain and Mr Mulford's son, said: "The cricket club's 150th anniversary is a huge achievement and a great compliment to the village for keeping the club running throughout the years."
Records show matches have been played in the village as far back as 1837.
The parish notes of the St Augustine's Church rector in the early 19th century refer to a "flourishing cricket club".
There have been at least three cricket grounds in the village – at Eyston Park, Downs House and the current venue, Hill Field off Mill Lane.
In 1990 the club became a member of the Oxfordshire Cricket Association and began playing league cricket.
To mark its birthday, the club hosted a six-a-side tournament for eight local teams last month.
Didcot Cricket Club won the contest and more than 1,500 runs were scored.
Most were hit by Challow Cricket Club's Vishane Perera, while Matthew Warner, of Kingston Bagpuize Cricket Club, took the most wickets with five from his three overs.
East and West Hendred will also celebrate with an end-of-season dinner at Drayton Golf Course.
Test Match Special commentator Henry Blofeld will be the guest speaker on September 28.

More Good News From General Motors
Less than a week after General Motors reported that they were turning a profit for the fifth quarter in a row, the company announced that it will invest $2 billion in plants and facilities across eight states, creating or preserving over 4,000 jobs. According to the Detroit News, 1,350 G.M. employees who were laid off during the company's crisis period will be re-hired to fill these positions.
What's good for GM is also good for the broader U.S. economy. The Ann Arbor-based Center for Automotive Research said the investment could create or preserve 24,000 jobs beyond GM's payrolls, contributing almost $2.9 billion to the U.S. economy.
The chief economist of CAR added:
"There is no greater evidence of the positive effect of the historic federal intervention than large new investments in major U.S. automotive facilities on the part of the rescued firms such as General Motors."

SUMMERDALE, Alabama -- A vehicle that led police on a chase Monday was found this morning was discovered in a wooded area in Summerdale.
The automobile was found about 10 a.m. in the woods at the southwest corner of the intersection at County Road 48 and County Road 71. It had led a police chase Monday at 9:39 a.m.
The driver ran a traffic light at the intersection of Highway 59 and County Road 31 Monday morning headed north, authorities said. Summerdale police officer Terry Fent pursued the vehicle with the lights and sirens of his police vehicle on, but the driver failed to yield to the signals, police said.
Fent chased the driver, who was in a dark blue and black 1986 Chevrolet Celebrity Classic, until the driver reached County Road 36, according to police. The driver then turned into a drive way and drove across a peanut field. Fent chased the vehicle through the field until his car bottomed out, and the vehicle got away.
The vehicle contained what Fent described as a piece of equipment used on a generator in a meth lab.
According to Fent, the Summerdale Police Department has a suspect, and is moving towards apprehension in the next 48 hours.

NEW YORK (Jul. 30)
Renowned Soviet cinematographer Mikhail Suslov, whose two-year struggle to emigrate won the attention of Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir, arrived today at New York's JFK Airport, with the help of United HIAS Service. Until his departure Suslov was regarded as a major figure in the dissident movement and went on a hunger strike to dramatize his position. He was joined by writer Felix Kamov and journalist Evgeny Baras.
The 36-year-old Suslov has made more than 30 films in the Soviet Union. His production of Chekhov's "The Seagull" won the silver prize for film photography at the 1973 International Film Festival in San Francisco. Another film, "The 6th of June," about the Russian Revolution, was considered a milestone in the Soviet film industry and was seen by over 40 million Russians.
Suslov had been out of work since applying for an exit visa in 1973. He and his family existed on small amounts of money sent by anonymous friends in America and Europe. During this time, his films were shown throughout the Soviet Union, but his name was deleted from the credits.
Arriving with Suslov were his wife Irina, their 16-year-old son, Vadim, and Mrs. Suslov's parents and sister. His brother, Ilya a journalist, and parents previously settled in Cleveland, also under HIAS auspices.
Fifty-one other Soviet Jewish emigrants arrived in the United States on the flight with the Suslov family. HIAS has resettled more than 2900 Russian refugees in the United States during the first six months of 1975. They are being resettled in 88 Jewish communities across the nation where local agencies help the emigrants adjust to their new homes.

Big Clown vs. 3 annoying yoyos.
Posted By: Brett <firstname.lastname@example.com>
Date: Sunday, 26 December 1999, at 5:03 p.m.
Last Thursday(I think:-)) I got 2 small clown loaches. Each were about 1" long. I put them in there to give my bigger one a little bit of company(3-4"). Well it worked, and these guys were best buds and everything. My clown even decided to share his tunnel through the drift wood with them, which he would always chase my darios from. Recently my yoyo's have gotten too energetic and bug him(like the way a clown will bug another fish by following it). Even though they are shorter in length, then think they're pretty tough. Today I saw my clown snap out his little spikes(first time I've seen him do it to another loach). He chased my yoyo's around for a while. My Question is: Will he actually hurt the

After just three years of serving the Ahwatukee area with its Montessori approach, Inspire Kids Montessori is expanding into a bigger location at the end of July, offering the chance for more community involvement.
Inspire Kids, which currently enrolls about 70 toddlers, preschoolers and kindergartners, will be celebrating a grand opening of its new location near 40th Street and Chandler Boulevard on July 27 as well as an open house.
The new 8,000-square-foot suite in the Safeway Plaza, gutted from inside for renovations, will give the school space for six classrooms, an expanded outdoor playground, and gardening space.
"Into our second year, we saw the pattern of growth," said director Diana Darmawaskita. "I knew that we would outgrow the space quickly."
With the decision to begin looking for a new space at the beginning of the past school year, Darmawaskita said the retail space was referred to her and plans for renovations started soon after. Inspire Kids is currently in a 6,000-square-foot corporate suite near 44th Street and Ray Road.
"It's a nice addition," Darmawaskita said. "Now we can involve the community and parents, it's really neat if you have a big space."
Taking the suite previously owned by the retail chain Tuesday Morning, the Montessori school will offer an all-natural log playground in addition to building an organic vegetable garden. Darmawaskita noted that a respect for the environment is another aspect of the Montessori approach, which also encourages individual creativity and academic achievement.
"The focus isn't just the individual academic portion, but also emotional growth and being able to be responsible in the community," she said. "And we are part of the community."
A grand opening celebration and open house is planned for Saturday, July 27 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Parents and students will be able to tour the new facility as well as participate in games, craft projects and other activities.
Inspire Kids is accepting new students for enrollment at the new school site, 4025 E. Chandler Blvd., Suite 11.

HAWKS TO HEAD TO 10th STRAIGHT NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP
March 27, 2013
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - The University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) Hawks heard their name called for a tenth straight year today. The team, coaches, administrators and University President Dr. Juliette B. Bell, all gathered in the conference room of the William P. Hytche Athletic Center to watch the 2013 Women's Bowling Selection Show. They all cheered when they heard their name called, meaning that UMES will get a chance to earn their third consecutive and fourth overall NCAA Championship.
The selection show aired on NCAA.com today at 4 p.m. ET and is archived for viewing. The eight team field competing for the 2013 title includes six teams from the Central region and just two from the Northeast. For the first time in the history of the ten year event, the NCAA revealed the team in order of their rank by the selection committee. In order, they are:
1. Central Missouri
With the selections, UMES joins Central Missouri and Nebraska as the only three teams to attend all 10 championships.
"We are honored to be the second overall selection," said head coach Kristina Frahm. "I do feel however that we have a top team and I think our experiences can help us make a serious run at winning another National Championship. Obviously, we are looking for a three-peat," Frahm smiled.
UMES won its second consecutive National Collegiate Women's Bowling Championship in 2012 at Freeway Lanes in Wickliffe, Ohio defeating Fairleigh Dickinson in six games, winning the final game 203-176. With the victory, the Hawks became the first team since Nebraska in 2004-05 to win back-to-back national titles. They also won in 2009. Each school has three total NCAA titles and are the only two programs in existence that have won both an NCAA and USBC Collegiate National Championship.
All of the National Champions to date are represented in the field. FDU won in 2006 and 2010 with UMES winning in 2008, 2011 and 2012. Vanderbilt won the other title in 2007. The Hawks were runners up to Vandy in 2007, finished fifth in 2010 and seventh in 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2009. UMES won in 2011 when they rebounded from a two-games-to-one deficit to top Vanderbilt and capture the Championship at Skore Lanes in Taylor, Mich.
UMES is currently ranked third in the National Tenpins Coaches Association (NTCA) Coaches' poll and second in the Media poll. This season the field represents the top eight teams in the coach's poll. The Hawks are coming off a win in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) Championships and have won ten of the 13 events they entered this season. The other three they took second.
"We haven't been worse than second all year," said junior standout and All-MEAC player Megan Buja (Rockford, Ill.). "I think we have a really good chance at winning."
The University of Detroit Mercy and the Detroit Sports Commission will host the championship, which will be held April 11-13 at Super Bowl Lanes in Canton, Michigan. The championship finals will air on ESPNU Saturday, April 13 at 8 p.m. Eastern Time. A tape delay broadcast of the championship finals will air on ESPN Sunday, April 14 from 2 - 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time.
Tickets can be purchased on www.NCAA.com prior to the championship.
Competition begins with qualifying rounds in which each team bowls one five-person regular team game against each of the other seven teams participating in the championship for a total of seven games. Teams will be seeded for bracket play based on their win-loss record during the qualifying rounds.
Teams will then compete in best-of-seven-games Baker matches in a double elimination tournament. In the Baker format, each of the five team members, in order, bowls a complete frame until a complete (10-frame) game is bowled. A Baker match tied 3½ games to 3½ games after seven games will be decided by a tiebreaker using the Modified Baker format.

My husband has never had a belly but now after 9 months of hormone treatment, his belly is so big and hard almost like a pregnant belly. Im worried is this normal? Urologist claims hormones don't put on weight oncologist claims they due.
Dec 16, 2012 - 12:52 pm
Is the lung cancer metastic prostate cancer, or did he have that first? They usually will do a biopsy to determine this as your treatment will vary with what it is they are treating. Nodules on lungs have a tendency, my case, to make exercise hard. When you do not walk, or exercise weight gain is guaranteed. I would also mention that what he is eating will help him alot.
Should he not be able to exercise then diet is only thing that will help weight gain. I am sure they have done CT scans to look for problems. What do the scans show?
Dec 16, 2012 - 1:19 pm
I have been on hormone therapy for four and one half years. My weight has remained steady at 238 to 242 lbs. That's overweight, of course, but it's "normal" for me. However, material on the Internet suggests that weight gain after going on HT is normal.
Hope this is helpful. Good luck to you.
Dec 16, 2012 - 3:57 pm
Thanks for your replies. The lung cancer is separate from the prostate and diagnosed later.
Dec 16, 2012 - 7:22 pm
Help me understand, the prostate cancer was first and the lung cancer second. Than its probably prostate cancer in the lungs and bones. There is a new drug for bones for trials coming out soon and a drug like Zytiga could fight back the lungs cancer?
The HT can cause the mid sectionto increase in size. My weight has went down from 242 to 230 and waist size is about the same. Have not exercise much since my heart attack, but eating better. Miss eating that bad food!
Dec 16, 2012 - 7:38 pm
When I went in, on my own, to demand an x ray it led to a ct scan and showed nodules on lungs. First words from Dr.s was lung cancer from smoking, even though I quit smoking in 1985. They were all positive. Biopsy showed prostate cancer spread to lungs.
Exactly what tests have they done to determine where it came from and what they are fighting?
Something does not seem right. They can say lung cancer spread to bones, but unlikely to spread to prostate. Exactly what is their diagnosis regarding spread?
Dec 16, 2012 - 10:58 pm
My husband also has a very bloated stomach and it is from the hormone therapy. This confirmed by the oncologist.

Last night my heart was broken into a million tiny pieces.
You may have heard me talk about Roger here and there, referring to him as my friend with terminal lung cancer. We had lost touch after high school but unexpectedly, as summer faded into fall, we found each other again and he gave me the most precious gift anyone has given me, ever.
He shared the last 2 1/2 months of his life with me.
As fall came, we spent late nights talking on Facebook, sent email back and forth about old friends, and reminisced about when we were in grades 1 and 2 and played "Boys Chase the Girls."
"You were always out of reach," he said. "Just close enough to see but never quite close enough to catch."
"Ah, you see," I admitted, "I was nervous that I might like being caught."
We told each other off color jokes, talked about how McDonalds food is cancer proof, and caught up as best we could on the 20 years we had missed.
As fall began to fade and the weather turned cold, I knew something was wrong. At Blissdom, an email came saying he had been much sicker and this time, he sounded tired. I had meant to email him immediately, but I was in Toronto, life was crazy busy, and I let it wait.
It was his last email.
He died on Sunday.
There was still, there was always, so much more to say.
Part of me wanted to shriek, "But I didn't get to tell him how much I LOVED him!" Not romantic love, but sisterly friendship love that is unconditional and pure, reserved for the people in your life who leave their fingerprints on your heart. People who made you a better person. Friendships that transcend place and time, that if you ran into each other tomorrow you'd pick up right where you left off without missing a beat.
I looked back through my facebook messages, and realized that those 2 1/2 months, however short, were an amazing gift because while I didn't get to tell him right at the end, I told him in the beginning, the middle, and all along the way. He knew.
He had just turned 40 years old. He had a wife and two small children. He was a only child whose parents adored him.
I am so proud that I was his friend.
So this evening, in honor of Roger, I want you to do something. Head out your front door, back porch, however you get outside. Take a look at the moon, the stars, the lights of the city, the ocean, whatever your view, close your eyes, and take a deep breath, for lung cancer had robbed Roger of that wonderful feeling.
Feel the oxygen, the LIFE, saturating your soul. Think of all the people you love. Those who are with you, and those are not. Then go back in your house and give your family warm squishy hugs.
I'll be on my back porch, looking at the moon and the sparkly lights of Nanaimo across the Georgia Strait, taking a deep breath with you, and thinking of Roger.
(I need a little break, and won't be around here or Twitter the next few days. If you really need me, you can get me at notesfromthecookiejar (at) yahoo (dot) ca. )

Having broken his duck in Shanghai, Jenson Button expects Nico Rosberg to get a taste for winning.
- Home
- MotoGP
- Championships
- Forums
- CrashTV
- Live
Having been beaten to the chequered flag by Nico Rosberg in China, Jenson Button has admitted that he expects to see the Mercedes driver on the top step of the podium a little more often in future.
The two drivers know what it is like to have to wait for a maiden F1 victory, with Button's first win, in the 2006 Hungarian Grand Prix, coming just two races further into his career than Rosberg's success at the 111th attempt on Sunday. Although it took a while for Button to again top the podium - he had to wait until the blistering start to his 2009 world championship-winning campaign - the Briton knows that the boost a driver gets from breaking his duck seems to make adding further success easier to come by.
"We were talking on the podium and, yeah, he beat me by two races - I took 113 and he's on 111," the McLaren man confirmed, "It's amazing how, with some people, it can happen very quickly if you can find yourself in the right situation, while, for others, it takes a little bit more time.
"Which way would you choose? We'd all choose to win immediately, I think. I wouldn't choose my career path and the mistakes that I've made and, obviously, the good things that have happened in my career - it's just different for all of us. I'm sure that this won't be Nico's first and last win. We all know how special it is, your first win, and I'm sure there will be many more, just hopefully not too many more this year. [Mercedes] seem very competitive this year and Nico obviously hasn't put a foot wrong all weekend, so I think we're going to have a battle on our hands this year."
Of course, Button's current team-mate, Lewis Hamilton, is among those to taste F1 success very early in their careers, having battled for the world title in his very first year in the sport. That bid, ironically, came unstuck at the 2007 Chinese Grand Prix, when Hamilton ran into the gravel trap bordering pit-lane, but the Briton bounced back the following year to precede Button as champion.
This year, the pair have started two races from the front row, and Hamilton would made that three had it not been for a five-place penalty that relegated him to seventh on the grid in Shanghai. Despite the setback, he came through to complete the podium behind his team-mate, who admitted that, despite the setback of a slow final pit-stop, he had enjoyed the cut-and-thrust of the pack racing.
"I got a good start - I think, all year so far, we've had very good starts, if not the best starts and [that's] promising when you don't qualify so well," he reflected, "Great job by the whole team for sorting out a special start out for me and great to get up into P3. .
"I can't remember how many cars I overtook during the race, but it was a good fight and most of it was very, very clean, which is good to see. I think, when you're in front for the first few laps, it always makes it easier, [as] you're dropping the traffic better. Everything was going to plan, I knew I'd have traffic and we were picking them off nicely up to the second pit-stop.
"After the last stop, it was a lot more difficult. Kimi [Raikkonen] was leading a train of about eight cars and everyone was DRS-ing at the same time, so, until Sebastian [Vettel] had a go at Kimi, I couldn't have a go at Sebastian. But it was good fun. Overtaking Sebastian was probably the most fun move of the race, down into the hairpin - or maybe [Romain] Grosjean, when I took him before the actual back straight, through the right-hander, that was quite nice as well."

100 jobs to go at West Midlands Police
More than 100 police officer and staff posts will go in the latest round of cuts at cash-strapped West Midlands Police, it was revealed today.
More than 100 police officer and staff posts will go in the latest round of cuts at cash-strapped West Midlands Police, it was revealed today.
The force is planning to shed 92 officers and 13 staff jobs in order to make £7 million savings.
It admits more than half of those forced out currently work in roles dealing directly with the public.
The cuts are part of plans to save £126m over the next three years, with the potential loss or redeployment of 2,700 officers and staff. Police bosses reviewed 37 areas of the force, made up of 5,029 police officers and 1,970 staff. Departments looked at included CID, Air Operations, call handling and front desk staff.
Chief constable Chris Sims said the proposed officer reductions will be met through natural wastage and the controversial A19 process, which sees officers with 30 years or more experience forced to retire.
He explained that compulsory redundancy was likely to be required in 12 of the 13 staff positions, with those affected leaving from March. Mr Sims said cuts are the latest part of the force's Priority Based Budgeting programme, which urges department managers to make savings.
But the job losses were today condemned by the West Midlands Police Federation, whose deputy secretary Steve Grange warned: "Our officers on the front line are already feeling the pressure of trying to get more for less with rest days being cancelled and meals breaks lost – and that is only going to get worse."
More than £4m has been saved in Staffordshire, including a seven-figure sum through a suspended pay rise for officers.

Michael Gerson: GOP must decide whether immigrants are threats or advantages
Fact Check Pleasant Grove, UTJuly 31, 2013 11:58 p.m.
Such a wide array of sources, and no quotes? How do we know you're not just making this up?
samhill Salt Lake City, UTJuly 31, 2013 11:13 p.m.
The headline for Michael Gerson's piece reads, "GOP must decide whether immigrants are threats or advantages".
Whenever you read something about the "immigration" debate that doesn't include the word "illegal", you can be assured it is dishonest.
The overwhelming issue with regards to the matter of immigration reform has to do with the decades-old problem of rampant **illegal** immigration.
The fact that there are other aspects of immigration policy that could also benefit from a thorough examination and overhaul is a smoke screen behind which people who care little about the problem of **illegal** immigration.
Who, more likely, are only too happy to see a continuation of the loose application of even current laws that have allowed, if not encouraged, the ridiculous levels of **illegal** immigration that has plagued the country for far too long.
Fitness Freak Salt Lake City, UTJuly 31, 2013 5:42 p.m.
"Dragline" Most conservatives WANT employers to be busted. The big argument you hear (at least on the national level)is to build all sorts of fences, and spend billions on enforcement that may (or likely may not) ever occur. These arguments are largely fueled by RINO's who are raking in BIG campaign bribes......er "donations" from illegal/unethical businesspersons who employ illegal trespassers.
Unethical businesspersons (including high-tech employers)have discovered its MUCH cheaper to make a "donation" to their representatives than actually pay a decent wage.
Yes, you're absolutely right, it is MUCH cheaper to enforce immigration laws via employers than trying to track down all the illegal employees.
All ICE would have to do is raid a few work sites and actually arrest a few employers. Then publicize the raids as much as possible.
Illegal immigration would probably be stopped somewhere between 80-90%.
BTW - amnesty is included in the Senate bill for employers also. Not that any of them have ever had much to be concerned about.
Its especially disheartening to hear a democratic President talk about jobs for illegal trespassers. I had always thought the democratic party worked for the betterment of working Americans.
Henderson Orem, UTJuly 31, 2013 5:26 p.m.
From the rhetoric I've seen online, on the news, and through the newspaper, the GOP has already made up its mind that immigrants are a threat. Unless foxnews, am radio, and conservative websites aren't considered mouthpieces of the GOP.
patriot Cedar Hills, UTJuly 31, 2013 4:37 p.m.
I guess the ones that join gangs and kill people are sort of threats - the rest are ok. From the Democrat party prospective - ALL immigrants are important regardless of the crime they bring because they are votes in the elections for the Democrats. Of course I'm talking bout the ones sneaking across the border from Mexico.
LDS Liberal Farmington, UTJuly 31, 2013 3:42 p.m.
Salt Lake City, UT
What I don't get is why are we rewarding law breakers with amnesty?
Why are those greedy businessmen exploiting cheap undocumented labor to expand their bottomline?
Why are THEY rewarding law breakers?
Dragline Oream, UTJuly 31, 2013 2:35 p.m.
This issue draws so many comments about the illegality involved in the immigration without confronting those who really made the illegal money on the backs of illegal immigrants--the employers.
We criticize those who took jobs in the U.S. but not the contractors, farmers, and maid services who have, and continue to, take advantage of this subclass of society. They came here at the request of employers to build our cities, farms, and highways and yet we decry them as outlaws.
If we are going to deport, tax, and harass everyone equally, maybe we should consider those employers who made bank and not those who walked the banks of the Rio Grande looking for a better way of life. It's kind of like the Utah pioneers who illegally moved to Mexican territory to avoid persecution and find a better way of life. Yeah, kinda like that.
lost in DC West Jordan, UTJuly 31, 2013 1:19 p.m.
Why does the headline infer that ALL immigrants are here illegally? Why?
don't try explaining the difference to dems, they appear incapable of understanding it.
Fitness Freak Salt Lake City, UTJuly 31, 2013 1:12 p.m.
Like many other amnesty advocates the author fails to make the distinction between "legal" or "illegal" immigrants.
Kind of like when a store says "we want ALL shoppers, just not the shoplifters". That seems to be their policy, WHY can't it be ours?
Americans are getting quite tired of excuses. Why write a "new" law? Why not just enforce the existing law? Unless, of course the amnesty advocates want to enable lawbreaking, and make excuses for it!
The ONLY thing wrong with the existing law is that it doesn't get enforced. With Congress' approval rating at an all time low, WHY should we believe anything they tell us with regards to border enforcement or immigration enforcement in general?
the truth Holladay, UTJuly 31, 2013 12:24 p.m.
The GOP is not against immigrants.
The are against ILLEGAL immigration.
Until the media and the left can be honest we can never have any productive dialog about this subject.
TRUTH Salt Lake City, UTJuly 31, 2013 12:13 p.m.
What I don't get is why are we rewarding law breakers with amnesty? There are 4 million who are on our immigration roles who are seeking a better life in the USA who have followed the law and some of those people have been waiting for 30 years! Why are we telling these people to be patient while we are rewarding law breakers? This is not because democrats are compassionate, its because the democrats see them as future voters! We have 20 million unemployed who don't have jobs that want to work, why are they being marginalized for cheaper labor? So much for American exceptionalism!
atl134 Salt Lake City, UTJuly 31, 2013 11:39 a.m.
"It's hard to figure what King said that was so offensive."
He asserted that most illegal immigrants were drug runners...
"they like the entitlements to much. "
Okay here's a tip, if you actually want to win the Hispanic vote, don't think of them as lazy moochers, particularly when a lot of them make low wages doing jobs white Americans don't seem to apply for (just as Georgian orchards).
procuradorfiscal Tooele, UTJuly 31, 2013 10:01 a.m.
Re: "GOP must decide . . . ."
Why? It's a false choice, offered by cynical political spinmeisters.
There's no good reason to lump all immigration together, legal and illegal, and then suggest it's an all-or-nothing choice between no immigration or uncontrolled immigration.
Uncontrolled, open-borders, illegal immigration is bad. Legal immigration is good.
That's the real choice. And it's one that was made many generations ago.
Now that the liberal, open-borders crowd is desperately seeking new voters, they're cynically attempting to portray the issue as new, in need of a new decision.
It's not. And they know it.
prelax Murray, UTJuly 31, 2013 9:28 a.m.
From the Washington post
The union that represents the people who would have to decide who gets legalized under any new immigration law said in a letter Tuesday that the Obama administration is not ready to handle the influx of applications.
And Kenneth Palinkas, the president of the Citizenship and Immigration Services Council, which represents the 12,000 immigration officers and staff who work at USCIS, warned House Republicans that even flirting with a limited legalization such as just granting citizenship rights to so-called Dream Act immigrants could lead to problems
prelax Murray, UTJuly 31, 2013 9:25 a.m.
The Dream act kids can go home at 18 and come back legally on a student visa, they are moved to the front of the line. But their lack of responsibility makes them just as illegal here as their parents. It's a ruse, once citizens they can sponsor their parents for citizenship. Then their brothers and sisters, their spouses and children etc.
The Hammer lehi, utahJuly 31, 2013 8:59 a.m.
The only reason they will vote democrat is because some republican politicians refuse to go into there communities and actually try and talk to the groups there. Democrats do go into their communities and they listen to them and develop relationships that are more than just a transactional event.
Also the conservatives constent drum of ignorant comments about hispanics is causing most hispanics to turn to the democrats. Florida is a great example where Republicans used to get most hispanic votes there and now they don't.
Politics is personal and if people think that you hate them (whether its true or not) they wont support you on election day.
The Hammer lehi, utahJuly 31, 2013 8:55 a.m.
Most dream act kids are not engaged in drug or gang activiity and King shows his ignorance to who these kids are. If they were to walk down the street you could not tell them apart from other American kids. They are in our schools and most of them identify as Americans. I used to be against the dream act until I met the kids and most of them seem to be good kids who are trying to do the right thing in a bad situation. Most of them don't have much to look forward to after they graduate and its caused an alarming rise in teen and single mother pregnancy. which does lead to gang problems in young adults.
Rep King is trying to lay blame on individuals that have not committed a crime against our immigration system and he is trying to punish them in a very cruel manner. I don't even think he has a solution for fixing the problem because all of his proposals would never work.
m.g. scott clearfield, UTJuly 31, 2013 8:40 a.m.
The answer to the benefit or threat question of illegal immigrants is, Both. Many if not most are merely trying to work to live. However, the crime problem the same group brings is also a blight to Americans. It's not just the border violence, but every school in America that has a drug problem likely can trace those drugs back to the southern border. That was the point Rep. King was trying to make, and from what I can tell, unless border enforcement comes first, no immigration bill will solve the crime problem of illegal immigration. Legalize all you want, but the drug lords are not going to stop doing business in America. That's the major problem with our unsecured border.
prelax Murray, UTJuly 31, 2013 8:19 a.m.
It's hard to figure what King said that was so offensive. We know people are bringing drugs across, and many times they use the parents and older children, not just the parents. Multiple trips would build up muscles. Mexico is the "fattest" nation in the world, it use to be the US, and everyone made jokes, what's changed.
Comming here illegally does not make someone an immigrant, immigrants come with permission of the government. Hispanic's have never given a majority to the Republicans for the Presidency(Bush received 40% that's the highest, after Reagans amnesty they still voted Democrat), they like the entitlements to much.
So why should the Republicans give the Democrats 46 million new voters through amnesty?
Let's enforce the laws and prove to the American public that this will not happen again. How many Democrats in red states will lose their seats by giving amnesty for the EIGHTH time.
techpubs Sioux City, IAJuly 31, 2013 6:48 a.m.
Most American citizens approve of immigration. In fact we applaud those who apply for entry and come here through our legal process. We are especially proud of those who use our path to citizenship to become citizens also.
What we don't approve of is people who bypass the immigration laws by overstaying visas and sneaking across our borders without permission. No matter what words you use to describe these people the facts remain that they have ignored our laws and broken them. It would send the wrong message if we were to create a new and easier path to citizenship as a reward for breaking our laws. They need to return to their homeland and apply there for legal entry. Then wait patiently behind those already in front of them for their opportunity to come here.

There's one thing that has always bugged me about superheroes, and that's the fact that upon discovering they have superhuman powers, they never ever run around the city screaming "HOLY FUCK, LOOK AT ME; I CAN FLY!"
With that being said, here are 5 things that I'd do differently from Superman, Spider-Man & co:
1. The Girl Would be the First to Know
Superheroes always refrain from telling the girl they like of their superpowers because by doing so it would supposedly put her in "danger", neglecting to acknowledge the fact that these women always seem to get kidnapped anyway regardless of whether or not their enemies know their true identities.
I would personally break this trend by not only instantly informing my girlfriend of my superpowers, but also informing every other female within a miles radius before breaking into a dance not all too dissimilar from Peter Parker's in Spider-Man 3.
2. I'd Use My Powers to Get a Proper Job
You hear people complaining all the time that they are too over-qualified for the job that they are currently employed to do, and this is a sad fact that is also evident in the world of superheroes. Superman is a reporter, Daredevil is a lawyer, Spider-Man is a photographer – imagine being young Peter Parker, spending your evenings swinging around New York, saving the city from mutated lizards and weird alien goo, only to wake up Monday morning and report to J. Jonah Jameson.
This is why I would ensure that if I was to be my city's designated crime-fighter, I would make sure that I at least got paid for it.
With great power comes great (fiscal) responsibility.
3. I Would Definitely Piss Off People I Dislike
You're on a bus. On said bus there are four teenagers, loudly playing dubstep music from out of the shitty speakers on one of their phones. Coincidentally, you have the ability to shoot lasers from out of your eyes. Are you telling me that you wouldn't go all Cyclops on them, either?
4. I Would Make Celebrity Appearances
After my true identity had been publically revealed (I'd give it a couple of hours or so), I'd begin my descent into egotism via a series of appearances on chat shows, flying around the rafters on the Late Show with David Letterman to a chorus of awed applause, before making my way outside to sign a series of womens breasts whilst kissing their babies on their foreheads.
I would then return home to my girlfriend who was packing up her stuff, telling me that she was moving back to her parents house because she was worried about how the fame had affected me. "I'm still the same old Paul", I'd tell her, desperately trying to convince her that I could maintain a level head after being thrust so suddenly into the public eye. "No, it's too late," she'd reply, "I saw you signing that woman's nipple on Letterman. I don't think I can trust you anymore." She'd then get into her car and drive away, leaving me with nothing but a bottle of Jack Daniels and the burning feeling of regret. Oh, and the ability to fly. Yeah, I suppose things wouldn't be that bad if I could fly.
5. I Would Wear a Cool Costume
In Chronicle the teenage protagonists don't even bother with costumes, instead deciding to experiment with their superpowers in baggy hoodies and scuffed trainers. But why? Even when Peter Parker was nothing but a pizza-delivery boy he still (somehow) mustered up the money and put in the effort to create his skintight spandex ensemble. If you've got superpowers, you need a costume befitting of said superpowers. Personally, I'd opt for a black ninja costume. This would allow me to fly around the city undetected by my enemies, and would also be quite slimming for photographs. Don't judge me — superheroes get bloated, too.
