Q: What do I do if I cannot or choose not to attack?
A: If you can't attack, or if you decide not to attack, you must either leave your figure in the pose he was in at the start of his turn, or you can change him to the Punch, Kick, or Ranged pose. You can't change your figure into the Power pose unless he uses a power card.
Q: What if my Ranged attack weapon hits the table, then bounces up and hits the figure I was aiming at or another figure?
A: Be careful! If you hit a figure other than your intended target, the figure you hit takes one hit. If the shot hits the table or the figure's base first, the shot misses. If the shot hits the defending figure's post, that counts as a hit on that figure. If it hits only the base, the shot misses. If the shot glances off the intended target and hits another figure, only the intended target takes the hit.
Q: Do I have to move my figure every round?
A: No, you don't have to move. However, if you don't move you can't use the special power or panel card icons on the panel you're on. You won't get any benefit from the panel card your figure started his turn on.
Q: What happens if the attacker's total and the defender's total are the same after rolling the dice and applying all bonuses?
A: The attacker has not beaten the defender's total, so the attack fails to score a hit. So a tie favors the defender.
Q: I noticed that panel cards come in two varieties: plot twists and locations. What's the difference?
A: The two varieties are mainly for flavor. There is no difference between the two. However, sometimes a panel card or power card will mention one or the other, and then it does matter. When it matters, the card will explain the special effect.
360 Degree Vision
Q: If this card is in a corner, it's only diagonal to one panel card, right?
A: You are correct! So your figure would only get a +1 ATK bonus.
Armory & Handy Weapon
Q: The Armory and Handy Weapon says, "Reload weapon," but then gives a defense bonus if my figure is in the Punch (or Kick) pose. What gives?
A: You don't have to be in the Ranged pose to reload your figure's weapon. Your best bet is to put your figure into the Punch pose when you land on the Armory, so you can reload your figure's weapon, make a Punch attack, and get +2 DEF for the rest of the round.
Q: What if a figure moves onto a panel diagonal to Asgard for his first move, and then moves off of it onto a panel that is neither adjacent nor diagonal?
A: That figure did not land (end his movement) on an adjacent or diagonal panel, so you do not get to roll the dice.
Base of Operations
Q: Does the figure that lands on this panel get the bonus, too?
A: Yes indeed!
Blind Alley & Not So Fast
Q: Blind Alley says I "get the jump" on my opponent. Explain.
A: When a player "gets the jump" on another player, it means that player gets to move his figure first each round for the rest of the game. That is, until his opponent lands on this panel and gets the jump on him.
Q: I won the roll and got the jump on my opponent at the start of the battle. My opponent landed on Not So Fast at the end of round 3, so he got the jump on me, then attacked my figure. At the start of the next round, he gets to go first. But that means he gets to attack me twice in a row! How is that fair?
A: Well, you won the dice roll at the start of the battle, so you "got the jump" for free (meaning you didn't have to work for it). Your opponent had to maneuver his figure onto that panel, forgoing all sorts of other great attack bonuses to get the jump on you. Seems fair to me!
Q: During round 2 I put my figure into the Punch pose (I was moved last). At the start of round 3, my opponent landed on Blindsided and used it against my figure. But I wanted to change my pose this round to the Power pose. Help!
A: You don't get to change poses until it is your turn to move, so Blindsided works against your figure fair and square.
Cerebro & Rejuvenation
Q: Cerebro says to "flip one power card face up." What does that do and can I turn any figure's power card face up?
A: When you use a power card, you flip it face down to show that you have used it. Cerebro allows you to recharge that power by turning the card face up. Now you can use it again! And, no, you cannot turn another figure's power card face up. It only helps the figure that landed there.
Daily Bugle
Q: My opponent fired his weapon at my figure and missed. Does that count as being attacked?
A: Yes indeed!
Dark Alley
Q: My figure is on Dark Alley. My opponent's figure gets two attacks this turn. Do I get to roll for each of his attacks?
A: Yes indeed!
Doc Ock's Lab
Q: I have Thing on Doc Ock's Lab. I want to use the One-Two Punch power card. Do I get to re-roll the 2nd roll if it's under an 8?
A: Hold on there, champ! You can't use a power card and a panel card in the same turn! If you're playing some crazy variant game where that is possible, the answer would be no. The 2nd roll is not an attack, so the Lab does not help it.
Q: Why would I want to destroy a panel card?
A: Because it's fun! Also, it's a good way to keep your opponent's figures from getting to use them. Well, you can't use them either, but at least you got to decide which one to blow up.
Flurry of Blows
Q: My opponent got the jump on me at the start of the game. It's now round 2, and my figure just landed on the Flurry of Blows panel and I want to use it. What happens?
A: Since your opponent already has the jump on you, nothing bad happens. You get to use that panel card without penalty. However, if your opponent uses it, he would have to give up going first each round, as that card requires you to give up going first each round to use it.
Q: I'm playing a multi-player battle and want to use the Flurry of Blows panel card. It says, "your opponent gets the jump on you." Who gets the jump on whom?
A: You get to decide which of your opponents gets the jump on you. That player ends up getting the jump on everyone and will get to move and attack first for the rest of the battle. Well, at least until someone gets the jump on him...
Q: What does it mean to "Return one of your figures KO'd this battle to any unoccupied panel with one face-up power card?"
A: When your figure was KO'd, you removed all of his power cards from his power row. When another figure uses the Graveyard to bring him back, you choose just ONE power card for that figure. That figure comes back into play with that one power card, so it will only take one hit to KO him again.
Q: I used Graveyard to bring a figure back that had already moved this turn. Does he get to move again? (I know he can't attack.)
A: No, that figure has already moved this round, so he doesn't get to move again. The card says that he gets to move, not that he gets to move again.
Gust of Wind
Q: I don't understand how to use Gust of Wind effectively. What's the secret?
A: It's good for a number of reasons.
1. If you move an opposing figure onto a panel card, that figure can't make use of that panel card on his turn, as he started his turn on it.
2. You can move him away from your figure, and then you can Ranged attack him. If he doesn't have his weapon loaded, he may not be able to attack this round!
3. You can move him off of a panel where he is getting bonuses that last the whole round (usually defense bonuses).
Huge Target
Q: If I move my opponent's figure off of this panel card during my turn (before I attack), do I still have to attack him?
A: No! And yet another reason why Gust of Wind is good (see above).
Medical Attention & Muir Island
Q: I landed on this panel, but I haven't taken any hits. Can I get a 4th hit point?
A: No, you can't have more hits than you have power cards.
Mystical Transformation
Q: Can I turn my power cards face down voluntarily so I can get the bonus from Mystical Transformation?
A: No, you have to use them fair and square.
Q: I landed on Outnumbered and my opponent has more figures than I do. If my attack KO's one of his figures and he no longer outnumbers me, does my figure still get the bonus?
A: Yes, he does, unless your opponent manages to move your figure off of the panel this round.
Revenge Strike
Q: My opponent didn't attack my figure this round, but used a power card that did one hit to my figure. Can I still use Revenge Strike?
A: Yes indeed!
Q: When I use Teleportation to move to a new panel card, do I get to use the special ability and panel card icons of the panel I Teleport to?
A: The figure has already used a panel card for the turn, so he doesn't get to use the special ability of the panel card that he teleports to. However, he can take advantage of a panel card icon bonus on the panel that he teleports to.
Q: Why are there panel card icons on Teleportation?
A: The card does say "You may move…", so you don't have to teleport if you don't want to. If your figure stays there, he gets to use the panel card icons there.
Victory Stance
Q: My opponent tried to use "Earthquake!" against my figure, but the roll missed my figure. Does that count as a miss?
A: No, that was a special ability, not an attack. Attacks are normal attacks that use dice and poses.
Q: "Web Shooter" says to make a Ranged attack. How can I do that while in the Power pose? And what if my weapon isn't loaded?
A: Power cards sometimes break the rules of the game. So grab Spidey's weapon, attach it, and fire away! If your weapon isn't loaded, then you can't use this power card.
Q: I want to use "Web Slinging". However, my figure is surrounded in the corner by my opponent's figures (we're playing a 3-on-3 battle), and the rulebook says I can't move over opposing figures. Help!
A: When a panel or power card tells you that you can move a figure to any panel on the board, that is not normal movement, so the rules of normal movement don't apply. So you are not breaking the movement rule, as your figure is not actually moving over them. He's making a special move that lets him go anywhere. However, you still must land on an unoccupied panel.
Q: "Alien Symbiote" says to "leave this card face up." Does that mean I can use a 2nd time this turn?
A: No, you only get to use one power card per turn. Leaving it face up just means that you can use it again this battle.
Q: I want to use "Sticky Situation", but my opponent has a figure on the panel card I want to use. Help!
A: That doesn't matter. Spidey isn't moving there to use it. He gets to use it from where he is now whether or not it is occupied.
Q: Explain the usefulness of "Altered Genetics".
A: Before you start a battle, you don't have full information about the opposing figures you'll face, their powers, or what the battle board will look like. Sometimes you wish you had chosen a different power card halfway through a battle. Altered Genetics allows Spidey to go get a power card that will really help him out in the rounds to come.
Q: I went first and used "Spider Senses". On my opponent's turn, he rolled double 6's while attacking my Spidey. Does he have to re-roll both dice or just one? And what if he landed on a panel that tells him to roll dice? Does he have to re-roll there too?
A: He has to re-roll both of them. And if one of them comes up a 6 again, he has to re-roll it again until it comes up with a 1-5 result. It's usually a good idea to re-roll them one at a time. And yes, anytime he rolls a 6 he has to re-roll, not just during combat.
Q: "Wall Crawling" says that Spidey can only use it while he's on a location panel. How can I tell what type of panel he is on?
A: At the top of each panel card is the name of that panel. Right underneath that name is the type of panel it is: plot twist or location.
Q: I used "Combat Reflexes" during my turn. Now my opponent's figure is attacking Wolverine. Can I make him re-roll his attack dice?
A: No, that only works for Wolverine's attack. When you see the words "this attack" it means just for the current attack. Since Wolverine gets to make an attack after using this power card, it only works during his attack. Also, cards only work for the figure the card belongs to unless the card specifically mentions other characters.
Q: Why would I want to heal a hit using "Healing Factor" and give up my attack?
A: Attacking doesn't guarantee that you'll hit your opponent, but this power card is guaranteed to heal you. Sometimes staying healthy is more important than trying to score a hit on an opponent.
Q: In the first round my opponent scored a hit on my Wolverine. Then I used "Healing Factor" to heal that hit. Now Wolverine has no hits and I want to use "Berserker Rage". Can I?
A: No, as Wolverine currently has no hits. He needs to be injured to go into his "Berserker Rage". Same thing goes for "Heightened Senses". Wolverine must have a sideways power card in order to use it.
Q: I used "Deep Wound" and hit my opponent, but my opponent has no face-up power cards. What happens?
A: Nothing. You probably should have used that power card earlier.
Iron Man
Q: What if the 2nd shot with "Focused Blast" misses, too?
A: Sorry, but you don't get to make a 3rd attack.
Q: I'm using "Jet Boots" to move Iron Man to a new panel. Does he get to use the Power pose icon bonus on the new panel?
A: Yes indeed!
Q: Explain "Wide Beam".
A: This card is very powerful in a multi-player or multi-figure battle. You get to make one Ranged attack against each opposing figure, as long as that figure is not immediately adjacent or diagonal to Iron Man. You get to keep reloading until you have attacked each legal target. After you have attacked the last target, you don't get to reload his weapon this turn, so Iron Man's weapon will be unloaded until he finds a way to reload it later.
Q: My Hulk was hit twice during the battle, but I healed him once using a panel card. How much of a bonus do I get from "Getting Angry" or "Hulking Out"?
A: He currently only has one hit (one sideways power card), so he just gets +2 ATK for "Getting Angry" and +2 DEF for "Hulking Out".
Captain America
Q: I'm using "Retrieve", but why do I need a +2 ATK bonus for a Ranged attack? You don't roll dice for a Ranged attack.
A: That power card does not tell you that Cap can make a Ranged attack, so that +2 ATK bonus will apply to a normal Power pose attack. You can't make a Ranged attack while using a power card unless the power card reads, "Make a Ranged attack."
Q: I haven't attached Captain America's weapon to his arm yet this battle, as I haven't made a Ranged attack yet, so when using "Shield Defense", is his weapon loaded?
A: Whether or not you currently have his weapon attached doesn't matter. If you haven't used it, it is loaded. If you have used it and have not reloaded it, then it is unloaded.
Q: "Tactics" says to move Cap after "this attack." What does that mean?
A: This attack means the attack Cap is about to make. After using a power card you get to make a Power pose attack.
Q: Does Captain America's "Leadership" give him the bonus, too?
A: Yes indeed!
Q: I used Thing's "One-Two Punch". I KO'd the defender with Thing's Power pose attack, now I want to roll the dice. Can I roll anyway and see if I can cause a hit on another adjacent defender?
A: No, sorry. Only the figure that Thing attacked is a defender. You don't get to roll the dice, as the defender is now KO'd. If the defender had a way of preventing the hit that KO'd him, you would roll the dice, as the defender would still be on the board.
Q: My Thing figure was hit (and would have been KO'd) by an opposing figure, but "Rock Solid" worked (I rolled a 10!), so I get to heal one hit. Was Thing technically KO'd for a moment, or does the healing work to prevent that? Also, can I choose which card gets healed (turned upright from sideways)?
A: That power card prevented Thing from being KO'd, so you could not, for instance, use the "Graveyard". Also, it does not matter which power card you heal (turn upright), as there is no benefit to having a particular card upright or sideways. Pick one or decide at random.
Human Torch
Q: I'm using "Heat Wave". My opponent used the "Earthquake" against Torch earlier this round and scored a hit. Does the figure that used that panel against me count as a figure that hit Torch this round?
A: No, that figure did not use an attack or a power card against Torch, (the panel card is to blame!) so that figure is immune to Heat Wave this round.
Q: I want to use Torch's "Nova Burst" during a five-player game. I have an alliance with another player right now, so is his character immune to the Burst?
A: No, sorry. Unless everyone decided to play a team battle before you started, his figure is not a teammate of yours.
Ghost Rider
Q: I'm using "Relentless Assault". Can I just say I miss the normal Power pose attack, so I can roll and try to deal him two hits?
A: No way! You have to roll the attack fair and square.
Q: Can I use "Burn Rubber" even if I don't make an attack?
A: Yes indeed!
Q: How is "Penance Stare" worth it? Ghost Rider takes a hit, too!
A: If you can KO your opponent's figure and Ghost Rider is not KO'd by it, you win! In a multi-figure game, it's a great way to put the finishing touches on an opposing figure that may be too well defended or too far away to hit. If Ghost Rider isn't KO'd by it, you'll have a numerical advantage over your opponent.
Q: How come Ghost Rider's "Vengeance" requires rolling dice, while Human Torch's "Heat Wave" does the same thing, but without having to roll. Torch's power card is way better! Unfair!
A: Some figures have better Attack and Defense ratings than other figures. Figures with low ATK and DEF tend to have more powerful power cards. By the way, they aren't actually the same. Human Torch has to give up his attack to use Heat Wave. Ghost Rider can make his Power pose attack and then roll for Vengeance.
Dr. Doom
Q: If I use "Plan B" and choose to destroy an adjacent panel, do I get to roll the dice and try to get a 7+ like on "Earthquake!" or Thing's "Stomp!" power card?
A: No. Just because it does something similar to those cards doesn't mean you get all the effects those other cards do.
Q: I went first this round and used "Decoy Program". My opponent wants to use "Penance Stare" against me, but Dr. Doom can't be attacked this round! Who's right?
A: Penance Stare is not an attack, it's an automatic hit, so Decoy Program does not stop it. However, Ghost Rider would not be able to make his normal Power pose attack against Dr. Doom this round.
Q: When I flip a power card face down with "Mystical Confusion" does that cause a hit to that figure?
A: No. Turning power cards sideways is how you track hits. Flipping a power card face down just means that the card can't be used this battle, unless your opponent finds a way to flip it face up.
Q: I'm using "Mystical Fog", and then I'm moving to "Rejuvenation". Is "Mystical Fog" already face down by the time Doom gets there, allowing me to flip it face up immediately?
A: Yes indeed!
Q: How do I unload my opponent's weapon with "Outgunned"? My opponent doesn't even have his weapon attached to his figure!
A: It doesn't matter if it's attached right now or not. Fire it away from the battle board or just take the projectile out of the weapon.
Doc Ock
Q: With "Dangerous Experiment" can I flip my teammate's power cards face up?
A: No, you can only flip up one of Doc's power cards. If you could help out a friend, the card would say, "Flip two power cards belonging to any figure face up."
Q: The card "Tentacles of Fury" mentions another card called "Idle Hands", but I don't have that card. Help!
A: The "Idle Hands" power card is found randomly in other Battle Boosters. Trade cards with your friends or collect the whole set of figures and you're sure to get it.
Q: The card "What are the Odds?" says I may re-roll both dice. Can I roll just one dice and leave the other one as is? And does the card work for non-combat rolls?
A: You must re-roll both dice. Yes, it does work for non-combat rolls. After putting Doc Ock into his Power pose and choosing this card, the next time you roll less than an 8 this round, for any reason, you may re-roll both dice.

I have been working at Intel Corporation as a contractor (less than a year)
Intel looks good on a resume. it's big enough so if your contract is renewed for the maximum of 18 months, you don't have to worry about getting paid, like some small start-ups. There are 20 layers of management, that are all budget conscious, so if you like making out forms instead of working, you are all set !
Unfortunately, temp workers (contingent workers, green badges) get no respect, even less than any other company I've worked in. They are not allowed to attend meetings, except when your first level manager really likes you, they are told nothing, given no resources,

"11+ years of Intel experience. Not a bad place to work, but can become repetitive and boring. "
- Comp & Benefits
- Work/Life Balance
- Senior Management
- Culture & Values
- Career Opportunities
I have been working at Intel Corporation full-time (more than 10 years)Pros
* Compensation is good if you negotiate after receiving a job offer, I did. Otherwise they will lowball you and the raises stink once you are in the door.
* Time off (work/life balance) at my current location is excellent. But when I worked at R&D in Oregon, work/life balance is non-existent. They expect you to work 24/7/365 over there for the same amount of pay.Cons
* You will not learn anything new, it quickly becomes boring. After a 5 year departure from Intel (I acquired a ton of experience and new knowledge elsewhere), I rehired at Intel but have learned nothing new in the past 8 years! Management says that we are responsible for our own training, but every time I ask for additional training (vendor training, temporary job assignments within the building), I'm rejected due to costs. You will be pigeon holed in your current position forever unless you apply for an internal transfer, there are no longer any promotions. Why hold back ambitious employees from temporarily training elsewhere to acquire new skill sets? No need to change jobs completely. Invest in your motivated employees.
* Bonuses are based on corporate performance. Even the lame/lazy employees receive the same bonus as you do. They need to provide some incentive and make bonuses based on individual merit. Individual raises used to reflect performance, but now are below standard. It's disheartening to see poor performers compensated at the same rate as you are.
* Downsize the poor performers. For some reason, Intel will easily lay off good and bad technicians during slow periods, but they will leave horrible management and engineering intact. You will encounter lots of useless management/engineering who do nothing but bring morale down. My awful department manager has chased away all of my good coworkers to other divisions while retaining the horrible performers. Uggh!! They could easily lay off 30% of the workforce (poor performers) and nobody would notice.Advice to ManagementAdvice
I appreciate it very much that the new CEO wants to restructure the company to meet the needs of the consumer. Not only is he going to realign employees to high priority projects (so he says), but he also needs to retain and motivate his current high performing employees. Otherwise nothing will change, and it hasn't for the past 16 years since I started there!RecommendsNeutral OutlookApproves of CEO

Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) has released a report today that United States has spent approximately $7.6 billion on counternarcotics efforts in Afghanistan. (more…)
Besides that this photo tells thousands words in its context, like how artless and ugly this glass building looks among muddy houses in the ruins of civil war, it also shows a rigid dichotomy between Afghan society and modernity. Afghans fantasize modernity and they imitate it badly and ineptly, but I assume that is how a country should start rebuilding itself and strive for conformity with its status quo. (more…)
Afghanistan is one of the last places on earth where photographers used a simple type of instant camera called the Kamer-e Fawri for means of making a living. (more…)
It is winter in Afghanistan and among cock fighting, dog fighting and numerous other animal fighting, young Afghans venture to slide their arse in the snow as part of their winter game. This kind of snowboarding in Farsi is called Yakh Malah, or, Yakh Lakhshak, which literally means sliding on ice.
Afghanistan has been through decades of conflicts and it became one of the most dangerous places in the world for children and their mothers to live. (more…)

Associate Marketing Manager Interview
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at Condé Nast.
I was initially contacted by an Associate Talent Partner to schedule an interview. Then I arrived at the office in Times Square to speak with the same woman who set up the interview. She was incredibly friendly and we really hit it off. We spoke for about 15 minutes or so, and then she wanted me to speak with the Talent Parter in charge of the position. I met with her and it couldn't have been a more different experience than I had with the Associate Talent Partner. This woman was cold, unapologetic and brash. As someone who is supposed to serve as the face of the company for future employees, she did a very poor job of making me want to work for Conde Nast. She told me at the end of the interview that she felt I was better suited for another position they had open but that the hiring manager was not present. She told me to keep in touch and that she'd pass on my info to that hiring manager. I've followed-up multiple times, never to hear a thing from anyone. Even the initial Associate Talent Partner is ignoring my communications. Completely unprofessional.
- I was never really asked any difficult questions - the Associate Talent Partner basically just went through the basics. The Talent Partner seemed so uninterested that she didn't bother asking anything challenging. Answer Question

Measure seeks to clarify pesticide use regulations
The story had been my idea after a trip to a used bookstore yielded a worn, $1 paperback edition of Galbraiths 1981 memoir, A Life in Our Times.
The book was everything Galbraith and it captured me. Each page found its author slaying fools, foolish thinking or foolish politicians. His trick to great writing was simple: he used blood for ink, sometimes even his own.
While the book led me to his Cambridge, Mass. home, the then-being-debated 1986 Farm Bill led him to agree to the interview. By upbringing and by training he was, at heart, just a farmboy with a Ph.D. in ag economics who always had something to say about farmers, farming and farm policy.
It came from a youth on a 150-acre Ontario farm and an almost inbred fear that his superiority would not be recognized, he explained in the memoir.
It was only half josh; Galbraith was famously, fabulously arrogant. When President Kennedy once complimented him about a praise-filled profile in the New York Times, Galbraith replied that while the story was excellent it didnt need to call him arrogant.
Why not, chided the president, everyone else does.
That arrogance, and his intellect, scared me silly as I prepared for the interview. Two days prior, I holed up in a Cambridge hotel and immersed myself in his writings. When it was time to walk through Harvard University to his nearby home my legs were pure putty.
I rang his homes doorbell at exactly 6 p.m. An assistant led me to his study, then vanished. Afraid to sit lest the great Galbraith walk in to see me reclining, I examined his books.
No, his books; the books he had authored. The 25 or so (he wrote 33 in his 97 years) were in a line on one shelf. All were bound in leather with a golden Galbraith embossed on their spines.
The Affluent Society. The New Industrial State. The Age of Uncertainty. Ambassadors Journal. It was a half-century of economic thought all in a row. My knees jellied again.
Then, as I wrote in the magazine story and a later piece, Galbraith entered.
Across the room he walks. At 78 years old he is still an astonishing 6 6 tall even with the slight stoop in his thin frame. Silently he offers his immense hand in greeting. It enfolds your hand in a grip as soft as the leather on his beautiful books.
Did you know that Im the only faculty member of Harvard University with an undergraduate degree in animal husbandry? he asks. Whats your first degree?"
My first and only - I over-emphasized only while feigning lifelong disappointment - I said, is simply agriculture. He smiled.
The ice broken, Galbraith - the charming, brilliant economist, not the haughty, snobbish Scot - answered questions for nearly two hours. His politeness was total.
We talked about his days, in 1940, when he was the American Farm Bureau Federations first staff ag economist, (The Farm Bureau was delighted to have a reputable economist who could explain the necessity of price supports.), the Reagan Administrations antipathy toward farmers, and his 1986 Farm Bill prescription: production controls so the market pays farmers higher prices, not taxpayers higher subsidies.
Alas, there was little hope the White House and farmers would follow the inherently correct policy - production limits.
An economic rule states that one should never underestimate the inability of free marketers to use common sense, he announced sternly.
After the interview concluded, I did something I had never done before or since; I produced the tattered paperback copy of his memoirs and asked for an inscription.
He smiled, then quickly scribbled JK Galbraith 1986.
He sighed as he handed it back. Writers rarely make a nickel on paperbacks, he said.
This farm news was published in the May 10, 2006 issue of Farm World.

Marty Turco won't sulk over not starting
December, 8, 2010
By Mark Stepneski | ESPNDallas.com
ESPN.com's Pierre LeBrun has a good story on Marty Turco not getting the start in tonight's game against the Chicago Blackhawks. It begins:
The rest of the story is here.
Marty Turco won't get to start against his old team Wednesday night, but don't go sniffing for a big story from the veteran netminder.
"I'd be doing the same thing if I were [coach] Joel Quenneville. I am fine with it," Turco told ESPN.com on Tuesday.
Youngster Corey Crawford will try for his seventh straight win in the Blackhawks' net when the Dallas Stars visit the United Center, and while Turco can't wait to face his former team, it'll have to wait. The Blackhawks have three more games against the Stars, including a first game back to Dallas on Feb. 11. Now that one would be special.
"The first return to Dallas, that's the one you circle," Turco said.
The rest of the story is here.

Ah, right in the nads
| mofalle chapter 10 . 4/2/2013
I can never get enough of Wolfram as a child. I love all the little moments with his brothers. mother and Yuuri. My favorite moments are with Gwendal and Wolfram. The scene with Wolf sobbing that he hates vomiting into Gwendal's chest is heartwarming, and if a nice contrast to Gwendal instructing Wolfram as to how to behave as a cadet or loose his rank. I find young wolfram discussing thier marriage as political rather enlightening.
| Teffy.Uzumaki chapter 37 . 3/27/2013
I just love your fic so much that everytime I read it I just fell in love with yuuram again :D I would love to translate it to Spanish if you let me :) and I really hope you could write another awesome fic like this.
Congratulations and good luck! :D
| Msz Thang chapter 37 . 3/20/2013
One of the greatest love stories I've read. bravo!
| AZ1087653 chapter 2 . 3/14/2013
Poor Yuuri. He's so confused in this chapter. I can understand though. Falling for someone who is against everything you've grown up with is hard for some people.
But, poor Wolfram. I want to cry. He's knocked out of the story for now too. And whatever knocked him out gave me the chills.
| AZ1087653 chapter 1 . 3/11/2013
Well, the first part of this chapter had me laughing like an idiot. That new invention is definitely something every teenage brat in the world needs. LOL
The last part of the chapter had me freaking out! What in the heck?! And I won't be able to read more than a chapter or so a day since I've got to read Masks and The Wind Up Bird Chronicle for Japanese Lit. Oh, the suspense. Can't wait to read the next part. :-)
| The Little Nut chapter 37 . 2/20/2013
Beautiful story. I think you are a marvelous story-teller! Keep up the good work! :)

I've always adore this story. the best!
| mofalle chapter 4 . 1/27/2013
I'm rereading this fic and baby Wolfram is adorbable. I love the brotherly moments. I loved the tender moment of Gwendal taking Wolf. Also Conrat leaving Gwendal with a teething, barfy, poopy kid is funny.
| damons-hot-as-hell chapter 37 . 1/27/2013
awwwww that was one hell of a story i loved it heaps it only took like 10 hours to read damn thats all ive done all day lols i just cldnt put it down once i was started :)
lols i love how u write them togther and gah i loved it
| Sawyer Fan chapter 37 . 12/23/2012
Incredible story! I read it in one night, couldn't stop myself...LOL.
This story had it all, humor, angst, action, romance...
Yurri and Wolf together (a must)
Enjoyed the Wolf peril, and Yurri coming to the rescue for a change. Got a big kick out of Wolf 'growing up' and how Yurri was able to understand him better by paying attention.
I felt Yurri's realizations were believable as was everyone's reactions to what was happening around them.
I'd better go since I've stayed up way too late reading this *wink* but it was worth it!
Thank you for a fantastic read!

George W. Bush should be prosecuted for his admissions in his memoir that "water boarding is not a form of torture," according to American anti-war activist and left campaigner Cindy Sheehan.
Ms Sheehan made the comments in Dublin last night ahead of a public meeting Socialist MEP Joe Higgins about the "world wide collapse of capitalism".
Comments in the new memoir by former US president George W Bush that water boarding is not torture showed he need to be prosecuted, she said.
"To admit he committed these things in writing shows he and his administration need to be prosecuted" she said.
The anti-war campaigner lost her eldest son, Specialist Casey Sheehan, during his service in the Iraq war in 2004.
According to Ms Sheehan, despite an unemployment crisis, people losing their homes and education being cut, the United States spent a trillion dollars a year on the military.
"Nothing had changed much around any of these issues even though there was a new administration who claimed to want to reduce troops," she said.
"Not for me out of any sense of revenge but for the future. We have to hold these people accountable so these things happen, they are still happening," she added.

You've heard the rumors, you've heard the media reports... Now it's time to put the record straight..
Now it's time for the truth.
The amazing story of hope and perseverance in the face of trials, opposition and arrests captured the attention of renowned overseas movie director Tomasz Wiszniewski. Director Wiszniewski and his crew spent almost two weeks in Calgary filming the daily activities of Street Church and their volunteers.
The crew spent countless hours interviewing people from different fields about Street Church and its ministry. They interviewed politicians, lawyers, reporters, members of the police department and the mayor's office. They included the homeless who are served by Street Church, as well as members of the public who pass by. The people were asked why they feel there is so much controversy, opposition and resistance towards a peaceful ministry that feeds thousands of the less fortunate on the streets of Calgary. Particularly, they focused on why there is such a tremendous and open hostility against Street Church from the municipal government.
During the two weeks, the filmmakers witnessed and recorded firsthand what motivates and empowers the volunteers to stand for truth and in defence of human rights. They witnessed many lives being impacted during their time in Calgary through prayer, salvations, and the meeting of basic needs such as food and clothing.
In the documentary, Street Church volunteers are seen enduring and overcoming many obstacles in their mission. The documentary shows these volunteers being harassed, intimidated, handcuffed, arrested and taken before the courts by local authorities for simply standing up for their constitutional rights. It records their service to the poor in spite of rain, snow and freezing weather. As well, it shows the bravery of volunteers in the midst of attacks by local gangs. The film captures how they have managed to keep their faith throughout and continue with the mission they were called to do.
The film also features never before released archive footage of the miraculous recovery of a boy named Nathaniel whom doctors labelled a "Star Baby" because they declared that he would not survive. Born with smashed lungs, a heart located on the opposite side, stomach and bowels in his upper chest, Nathaniel had all odds against him.
Also presented is a story of a successful businessman who left all of his wealth to dedicate his life to serve and defend the rights of the poor.
This production was filmed at various locations such as Lake Louise, Drumheller, Calgary, Hobbema and Warsaw, Poland. The film was shot by cameraman Alex Pavlović and it is produced by Henryk Dedo (Voice of the The Gospel Foundation).
If this DVD and the story of Street Church has inspired you, please consider helping us in some way. We all live in a busy world where we often don't have time to volunteer directly. You can still be part of this movement by helping us. Please consider purchasing more DVD's to give away, donating some time or a small donation. Every little bit helps! streetadvocate.ca/donate
On behalf of Street Church Ministries we would like to thank you for watching the DVD.
May God bless you.

A few years back rumours circulated that action maestro Robert Rodriguez was set to make a "Predator 3". Nothing ever eventuated of it. But now, with "Aliens vs. Predator" around the corner, there's just got to be interest? Possibly. A booming script has indeed been written. Just one thing: the studio hasn't snapped it up yet.
Chances are no one's going to greenlight a stand-alone "Predator" film before they see how well "Aliens vs. Predator" does – but Screenwriter Sam Park is confident they will, because the script the studio once considered using, "Predator 3 : The deadlier of the species" is still on his i-mac.
Park explains, "It's one of my favorite sci-fi action films. Some films are great for certain parts. This is a film that works terrifically as a whole and then some. Joel Silver's deft producing and John McTiernan's sure hand at directing came together at the perfect time to realize Jim and John Thomas's suspenseful, smart and witty action script. Arnold. He was born to play Dutch. Somehow the planets aligned, mystic forces gathered and "Predator" dropped into theaters in 1987 causing everything you knew about action and science fiction movies to change.
This was another attempt on our part to do something the fans would love and even the larger film audiences would embrace as familiar but with a new and exciting spin on the concept. [Joel Silver's assistant, Reggie Hunter] did his part and got this treatment into [Joel] Silver who told him it was great but…he no longer was working with Fox on this franchise (now strictly a Warner Brothers team player) and so, nothing came of it.
According to Park though….there might be some interest in it now.
I checked out the storyline treatment for the film and I must say, it isn't too bad at all. If anything, it's great to see Arnold Schwarzenegger's Dutch back in the mix. It's very loyal to the first film sit in the Jungle again, and sounds like it could be a perfect vehicle for Arnie. Lots of double crossing, Arnie vs Predator fights again, and trivial origins stuff.
Says Park, "Dutch is back. He turns his back on love to track down the traitor who
wiped out his elite squad of soldiers. Two years later it's Dutch who
is being secretly stalked by a Predator with a mysterious agenda until
it learns that Dutch holds something more dear to him than life. This
sends the Predator into its own private hell during the worst snowstorm
in New York's recorded history to find Dutch's heart…and rip it out."
Well keep you posted on it. Meantime, we were also provided with what would be the description of the teaser trailer :
An audience settles into the darkness of a theater as the previews
begin on the screen.
The camera drifts through an unearthly blue and white spray. Suddenly
we realize we are gliding through snow during a blizzard at night in
New York City. Down a hazy street the florescent glow of a STREETLAMP
New York City is captured in a frozen nightmare.
The worst blizzard in 70 years.
We drift past the streetlamp toward a DARK ALLEY.
Some say the winter's cold has icy teeth
that chew and rend the flesh…
A frozen RED STALAGMITE of drained blood rises out of the shadows to
point us up into the darkness.
…its frigid wind, a voice that howls
to our most anxious inner consciousness…
Floating up as if in a nightmare we suddenly see it in the darkness: a
frozen HUMAN BEING suspended from a fire escape, his skin ripped
completely away to reveal the gore inside.
…like a predator.
The camera turns from this tragedy to the bloody ice below.
Who can save us from this evil?
Out of the icy flakes emerges a HUGE FIGURE in shadow. His parka is
tattered, a sleeve is gone. He stops before the grisly stalagmite.
Quickly he reaches to grab it. Boulders shift under the skin of the
exposed arm. With a superhuman effort the slender frozen mound breaks
Turning into the light of the streetlamp is DUTCH (Arnold
Schwarzenegger). He's older. A healed scar creases one brow. He raises
the jagged ice like a spear and then we see it. The GREEN BLOOD glowing
upon the ice covering the sidewalk.
It bleeds.
We can kill it.
He raises that red ice spear high and jams it into the Predator blood,
causing the ice to crack into a thousand fissures as the glowing green
goo flows through them to form the TITLE:
The screen goes black.
Coming this Christmas.
That isn't Jack Frost nipping
at your nose.
Sam and Clay's script treatment is darn gold. Anyone listening?

how does not connected alarm system mess up the phone?
I was having problems with my phone lines, so I called the phone company to see if they could help me.
The problems were very intermittent so I did not think he would be able to fix it.
various problems.
I could not hear the other person talk
they could not here me talk
the line would go dead
no dial tone then it would come back a little later
clicking sounds
fax sounds when I pick up the phone
could not hear the person for a few seconds, going in and out
dsl Internet connection goes up and down, and slow
He came over and did the following things
1. disconnected the unused alarm system inside out and outside, that alone made me very happy. It beeps when the power goes out.
2. Installed a dsl filter. We had a dsl filter missing on one of the TVs (has satellite receiver, with phone line)
3. Removed a remote phone jack the satellite folks put there for some dumb reason. It was the base unit. No other end could be found. He said they put those if there was no phone line near the receiver, but both receivers had phone lines installed near them. I think he just put it there just out of habit. He said it was not the phone company that installed it during dsl install, as I thought because they don't do that.
4 re-booted router.
He said a missing dsl filter can cause static.
He said rebooting the router as any electronic device helps since the get over heated and need to be shut off from time to time.
He said wireless phone jacks are bad news. He did not say why, that I can remember. He wondered where the other half was but we never found it.
The thing I was having the most problems with was, how an alarm system, not in use would cause problems. He explained it, but I forgot most of what he said, maybe because I did not thoroughly understand. Can anyone, in not too technical terms, explain what happens when an alarm system, not being used, tries to take over the phone lines? and how and why it can cause the above problems.
I wondered if the sat company calls at 2 am why would that cause static during the day?
why would a remote phone jack cause problems?
He suggested a new router if we continued to have internet problems. These are the three options he suggested
a. multi line modem so we could stop using router
b. 2 computer wireless modem - set up with password so others could not hijack our system
c. lynk sys router if we still wanted a router (I asked for a decent brand. We are using blittzz wireless firewall router - BWA 711, now
I we get a new router, what do you think we should get, that cause the least problems?
Please let me know which fixes would fix which problems and why.
I hope all this is not too confusing. It is to me.
Internet connection does seem faster now since he left, about 1 hour ago.

Re-finance of Investment Property
I am looking to re-finance a rental home. The home was purchased in 2003 at a 6% rate. I also have a Home Equity Loan with a small balance of $2000. I want to lower my monthly payments on the mortgage, but want to avoid closing costs. I am eligible for HARP. A few lenders are offering me rates in the low 4's, but they will only roll the closing costs into the loan balance. I would prefer to go with a slightly higher rate and have a no-cost re-finance. One of the lenders told me they couldn't do it because of a high interest rate loan law. Any advice?
