ARISE is a coalition of community groups, technical experts, and issue advocates seeking to create community-focused mixed-use redevelopments that strengthen the economy, communities, and natural resource base of the region, ultimately ensuring livability and accessibility to a broad demographic and future generations.
By developing a source of economic stability for the site itself and the surrounding area that is grounded in infrastructure supporting a broad range of social benefits and intelligently capitalizing on local resources, the ARISE plan will offer a model for communities to redevelop industrial sites into an active and welcome part of their environment. Through the ARISE plan, we seek to help communities Re-Invigorate, Equalize, and De-Carbonize.
To lay the groundwork for a long-lasting and vibrant community that addresses the real needs of the region, we use a collaborative, community-based approach, drawing from a diverse knowledge base. Groups contributing to this development plan include a range of public and private partners, with experience identifying and assessing community needs, modeling the integrated vision, and implementing transit, housing, and energy developments, etc. As the plan is still forming, we are continuing to seek insight on how to achieve our goals of building a vibrant and stable community.

Mr. Monster (John Cleaver Books)by Dan Wells
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
I killed a demon. I dont know if it was really, technically a demon, but I do know that it was some kind of monster, with fangs and claws and the whole bit, and he killed a lot of people. So I killed him. I think it was the right thing to do. At least the killing stopped.
Well, it stopped for a while.
In I Am Not a Serial Killer, John Wayne Cleaver saved his town from a murderer even more appalling than the serial killers he obsessively studies, using his own repressed homicidal proclivities to even the odds.
But it turns out even demons have friends, and the disappearance of one has brought another to Clayton County. Soon there are new victims for John to work on at the mortuary, and a new mystery to solve. But this time somethings different. John has tasted death, and the dark nature he used as a weapon—the terrifying persona he calls "Mr. Monster"—might now be using him.
No one in Clayton is safe unless John can vanquish two nightmarish adversaries: the unknown demon he must hunt, and the inner demon he can never escape.

Cirencester restaurant Le Beaujolais takes on French wine challenge
11:00am Sunday 15th June 2014 in News By Megan Archer, Reporter
A CIRENCESTER restaurateur has challenged other restaurants in the town to be the first to secure the 2014 Beaujolais Nouveau wine when it first becomes available in France.
The charity challenge will be raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support and will see Kiean Glynn from Cirencester's Le Beaujolais drive to France in a race to get his hands on the wine first.
He has received support from Mitsubishi in Cirencester and will be serving the wine at a celebration dinner at 6pm on November 20 this year.
Kiean said: "It is a marvellous event. My co-driver and I plan to get the Ferry to France, the day before release, sleep en-route, before arriving at the vineyard in Beaujolais that made us so welcome last year."
"We hope others in our trade and many local businesses will take part by offering sponsorship, auction and raffle items, and make a significant contribution to this wonderful charity."

As you may have recognized by now, adidas love to create special editions of their F50 adizero boots for star man Lionel Messi. From his Ballon d'Or trophies to his goal record and everything else in between, it has all been immortalized on the Barcelona & Argentina player's feet. Today, however, is a little bit different with adidas saying "happy 27th birthday" to Messi with a pair of boots that he will wear for only one day.
JUAN MABROMATA/AFP/Getty Images
The new boots are a combination of Messi's last Samba F50 boots and the Battle Pack variation that he has been wearing in this World Cup. They bear the same pattern but are much colorful than the white, black, and blue pair that Messi has scored twice in at this World Cup.
JUAN MABROMATA/AFP/Getty Images
Messi will wear the boots in training today and that's it. He will return to the Battle Pack F50 for Argentina's final group stage match against Nigeria on Wednesday.

New LHBS in Rio Rancho
The Grain Hopper in Rio Rancho. Write-up here: http://www.abqjournal.com/main/2012/10/29/biz/new-shop-opens-in-rr-for-brewing-hobbyists.html
His site: http://www.thegrainhopper.com
I wish him well.
I've been buying my grain and yeast from their store for a while now. The store is very well set up and they have a decent variety of specialty grains, hops, yeast, etc. I live on the west side of Albuquerque and work down the road from the Grain Hopper. It's nice not having to drive to the other side of town for brewing supplies.
After seeing this thread I have now started shopping there. I live in Rio Rancho, so it is great having this store close by.
I will have to drop in the next time I am in the area. Thanks for the heads up!
I'm happy to share
Ooops. I should have put my review in this forum, instead of the company review..
Nice guys. I am in there every other week..

A Case Study on Passive Voice Explores Options in American Sign Language
In her new book, Miako N. P. Rankin highlights the crucial interrelatedness of form and meaning at all levels in order to consider specific types of American Sign Language (ASL) expression. Take passive voice as just one example. Many materials designed for teaching ASL and/or for teaching ASL/English interpretation and transliteration maintain that ASL does not have passive voice and that agents must therefore be in focus. Thus, teaching beginning students of ASL, who are producing word-by-word literal translations of the English sentences in their heads, to recognize agents and express them actively in ASL makes sense. However, the underlying assumption that in ASL agents must always be in focus is untrue.
"The motivation for undertaking research on passive voice specifically began with my experience teaching English reading and writing to deaf students. For passive voice in particular, I found myself unable to come up with ASL expressions that were semantically equivalent without resorting to long, drawn-out explanations and roundabout explanations of meaning. I wondered how native ASL users express the meaning encoded in passive utterances, specifically the reduction in focus on the agent in a transitive event. What started as a query related to improving my effectiveness in the classroom naturally evolved into my research question and the design, elicitation, analysis, and results described in this study."
Form, Meaning, and Focus in American Sign Language, the 19th volume in the Sociolinguistics in Deaf Communities series, explores the options for expressing agents in ASL. "Such information on where and how agentive entities are expressed," observes Rankin, "as well as the varying levels of focus evoked by each form, expands our knowledge of the intricacies of meaning inherent in particular ASL constructions. Perhaps more important, though, this book also demonstrates that form can never be divorced from meaning at any level, reminding us that for true understanding we must look beyond vocabulary."
Rankin shares more in her introduction; read it here. Order Form, Meaning, and Focus in American Sign Language online now.
In its winter 2014 issue, the Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education succinctly summarized Rebecca Day Babcock's Tell Me How It Reads: Tutoring Deaf and Hearing Students in the Writing Center, stating: "This book would be a meaningful supplement to the library of postsecondary education faculty, staff of writing centers and tutoring centers, and staff of disability resource centers at colleges and universities, as well as for sign language/educational interpreters." Babcock's study was also mentioned in Reference & Research Book News: "Culling 36 interviews and 19 tutoring sessions with 16 participants, [Babcock] describes the key differences between deaf-hearing and hearing-hearing tutorials and suggests ways to modify tutoring and tutor-training practices. She provides details on the tutees and tutors, the research context, the content of a tutoring session, interactions in sessions, interpreters and administrators, interpersonal factors, key tutoring factors, the efficacy of common tutoring techniques, contributing and complicating factors, and recommendations for practice."

Review: Prosodic Markers and Utterance Boundaries in American Sign Language Interpretation
In Prosodic Markers and Utterance Boundaries in American Sign Language Interpretation, volume five in the Studies in Interpretation series, Brenda Nicodemus discusses the prosodic features of both spoken and signed languages that indicate rhythm, stress, and phrase length as conveyors of emotion. The journal Sign Language & Linguistics gives high marks to this volume: "[Prosodic Markers] is a highly detailed and elaborate analysis of the poorly understood phenomenon of prosody in sign language interpreting. The study provides an extremely informative investigation of the clustering of prosodic features in interpreted discourse and is packed with very useful discussion and detailed references to relevant literature. [The book's] emphasis on empirical data is particularly important to linguistic research aiming for descriptive adequacy.

For enterprise IT security organizations, the evolution of applications and threats, coupled with the stagnation of traditional network security technology has resulted in a loss of visibility and control. In today's economic climate, however, any further increase in cost and complexity is similarly unacceptable. Some leading enterprises, however, have found that investing in innovation, and bucking the trend of seemingly never-ending appliance sprawl in network security can result in the restoration of visibility and control, and substantial reduction in cost of ownership of security infrastructure. This paper examines three different organizations, the legacy infrastructure they replaced, the Palo Alto Networks next generation firewalls they deployed, and the substantial savings they realized - cutting both capital and operations costs by an average of 50%.

Actor Tim Blake Nelson portrays Dr. Samuel Sterns in the 2008 superhero film The Incredible Hulk.
Publication history[edit]
|This section requires expansion. (December 2012)
The character first appeared in Tales to Astonish #62,[4] and was created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko.
Fictional character biography[edit]
Born Samuel Sterns in Boise, Idaho, he worked for a chemical plant there in a menial capacity. While moving radioactive materials into an underground storage area, some of the radioactive materials exploded, bombarding Sterns with gamma radiation. He recovered, and found that the radiation had changed him from an ordinary human into a green-skinned, super-intelligent entity with an oversized brain housed in a towering cranium.[5] As was the case with most individuals mutated by gamma radiation early-on, the particular set of characteristics Sterns acquired by exposure to it were said to result from a subconscious desire; in his case, the desire to be as smart as his brother Philip, who was a physicist in the employ of the same facility. Calling himself the Leader, Sterns embarked on various ambitious criminal schemes, with the Hulk as his primary nemesis, consistently backed by a self-constructed army of super-strong, virtually invulnerable plastic Humanoids. These included an attempt to rewrite the Earth's history by infecting the primordial ooze with gamma radiation in order to recreate society in his image, with himself as its ruler.[volume & issue needed]
The Leader began his career as a would-be conqueror by creating a spy ring to overthrow the United States federal government. The Leader sends a spy to steal a robot Banner was developing. Banner goes after the spy but turns into the Hulk. The spy overpowers an unsuspecting watchman, leaving him bound and gagged while he gets into the robot and drives it to the test. A guard finds the watchman who reports he was knocked out, however they can't bring down the robot, and neither can the Hulk. The spy finds Banner's caves and makes a missile to fire at the base. Finally in the caves Hulk knocks the robot into a deep pit, killing the spy. He then stopped the missile.[6] The Leader then dispatched his ally the Chameleon to capture the Hulk for study by impersonating Bruce Banner.[7] Although the Chameleon failed, the Leader succeeded in capturing the Hulk by sending a horde of Humanoids to subdue him.[5] He also succeeded in stealing the Absorbatron, a device invented by Banner that could absorb the energy of a nuclear explosion, and thereby render any nation that possessed it immune to nuclear attack.[8] The Hulk eventually escaped the Leader and destroyed most of his lab, along with the Absorbatron, but the Leader himself escaped.[9] Eager to sell his Humanoids to hostile nations, the Leader gave a demonstration of his power by activating a 500-foot (150 m)-tall Humanoid and ordering it to attack a nearby missile base. The Hulk eventually encountered the Humanoid and managed to thwart the Leader's plans.[10] Curious to learn more about the power of the Hulk, the Leader then rescued the Hulk from the Army, who had cornered the monster in a cave.[11] After operating on the Hulk to save his life, the Leader reminded the Hulk that he was in his debt. Using this leverage, the Leader sent the Hulk to the homeworld of the Watcher to raid the Watcher's "Ultimate Machine", a device containing all the knowledge in the universe.[12] However, this huge amount of knowledge proved too much for the Leader. He collapsed to the ground, unmoving, and the Hulk assumed that he died of shock.[13] General Ross soon discovered the Leader's abandoned base and accidentally activated the "Hulk Killer" a large Humanoid designed to defeat the Hulk.[volume & issue needed]
Later, the Leader reappeared and offered General Ross aid in neutralizing the Hulk.[14] The Leader dispatched the Super-Humanoid to assist the General in seizing control of America's nuclear arsenal.[15] The Leader then hijacked the U.S. Army's Murder Module vehicle, and used it against the Hulk.[16] He freed the Rhino from captivity and sent him against the Hulk.[17] After briefly turning back into Samuel Sterns to question Banner about the Hulk's possible weaknesses, he resurrected the Glob to try to pit him against the Hulk.[18] The Leader later sent mental projections of the Rhino, Xeron, Namor, the Missing Link, and others against the Hulk, but then suffered a mental breakdown.[19] The Leader then created android duplicates of the President, Vice President, and military personnel in an attempt to kidnap the real President and Vice President.[20] He then superimposed his consciousness upon the Rhino in order to battle the Hulk.[21] He later used the Hulk and the Thing as pawns in a contest with Kurrgo.[22]
Some time later, the Leader briefly took over Gamma Base.[23] Some time after that, he gamma-irradiated Manhattan's water supply in an attempt to mutate humanity like himself.[24] He later activated Arsenal, and then dispatched the Avengers through time.[25]
After a period of time, the gamma radiation in his body began to wear off. At first, the Leader attributed his lapses in concentration to overworking his mind finding ways to defeat his greatest enemy (the Hulk). By the time the Leader realized what was happening, much of the intelligence that could have solved his plight was gone and texts that were once child's play to him were now hopelessly beyond him (he even forgot the access code of his secret base). In this period, he made cash however he could by means fair or foul, until he managed to convince the Gray Hulk to help him regain his intelligence by promising that he would help the latter to remain the Hulk full-time (instead of only at night).[volume & issue needed]
Rick Jones had been afflicted with a Hulk-like condition and the Hulk (using Bruce Banner's memories of gamma transfer) devised a machine to transfer all of the gamma radiation from Rick Jones to the Leader. However, this time the mutagenic process was slightly different resulting in a cranium that resembled an over-sized brain, rather than a towering forehead. He was also a lighter shade of green. As a side note, this transfer also created a psychic link between the two.[26]
Soon after this, the Leader would steal the seemingly lifeless body of General Thunderbolt Ross from the back of an ambulance, simply because it was there, and later managed to revive it as a mindless vegetable, which he used as an armored enforcer.[27]
Before long, the Leader's new form was revealed, and he dispatched Half-Life to battle the Hulk.[26] The Leader dispatched an army of four-armed robots against the Hulk, and created Rock and Redeemer.[28]
The Leader dispatched Rock and Redeemer against the Hulk. Following this the Leader engaged in a scheme to detonate a gamma-bomb in a small-town city, Middletown, Arizona, killing over 5,000 people, and the few, now enhanced, survivors provided him with valuable research subjects and superhuman enforcers called the Riot Squad.[29] With their help, he built a self-sufficient society called Freehold in the Arctic, populated with civilians dying from radiation poisoning. Some time afterward he gave the Hulk information how to find his brother, Philip Sterns, the Madman, since he thought it would be best to put the latter out of his suffering, due to his original personality being slowly and painfully eaten away by the Madman persona.[30]
After Jones suffered a great mental trauma due to the death of his girlfriend Marlo Chandler, his pain was enough to cause the Leader considerable discomfort, motivating him to work towards the revival of Marlo. At this time Freehold was targeted by a rogue branch of HYDRA terrorists, employing the U-Foes and his followers to invade the covert Pantheon organization, of which Hulk was a member, to coerce them to help him in defending it. He employed something he ironically called the Deus Ex Machina in conjunction with his follower, the gamma-enhanced reverend nicknamed Soul Man, who falsely believed himself to have been blessed by God with spiritual power, rather than given nearly godlike abilities by the Leader, in an effort to revive Marlo and siphon off Soul Man's power for himself. Rick Jones became convinced to accept the help after seeing the mindless, but mobile, body of Thunderbolt Ross.[31]
The Hulk, manipulated by the leader of the Pantheon, Agamemnon, attacked the facility. At the same time, HYDRA decided to storm the base, leading to a multi-sided battle. The Hulk eventually personally attacked the Leader, who, along with Soul Man, seemingly perished in the crossfire. The machine was likewise demolished, causing Marlo to enter a state similar to Ross, but both eventually fully recovered.[27]
The death of the Leader left his follower Omnibus in control of Freehold. Omnibus used mind-control to manipulate several U.S. chiefs of staff, and engineered many high-profile terrorist strikes to incite global warfare, as he reasoned that it was inevitable, and hurrying it along offered him opportunity to enable his personal society to survive and inherit the Earth. Omnibus was eventually exposed by his fellow Freehold citizens, judged to die in the cold, and was eaten by a polar bear.[32] Bruce Banner also saw the Leader in a supposed trip to Hell.[volume & issue needed]
A while later, the Hulk, who in his Bruce Banner persona was suffering from a degenerative nervous condition (which would ultimately kill him) was confronted by the Leader once again. Apparently he really had perished when the Deus Ex Machina was destroyed, but his disembodied consciousness had evolved beyond the need for a body. Although he was in the process of building a new body out of random organic materials, in a secluded cave near Gamma Base, he was preparing to leave this level of reality behind altogether, transcending both beyond the physical and his old goals. Yet before he did so, he intended to cure Bruce Banner for reasons all his own. After he had done so, he abandoned his body. However, later still his consciousness once again contacted Banner, apparently shocked by what he had discovered "beyond the veil"; he was unable to return, however, and was not heard from again until much later.[33]
During a time of great personal duress for the Hulk and Bruce Banner, who had begun to merge their personas, it became clear that Home Base, a secret organization who had relentlessly pursued the Hulk in order to obtain his genetic material, was secretly led by the Leader. In the end, after all his other agendas had failed, the Leader finally managed to mind-control the Hulk and guided him towards his secret base, with the intention of taking his indestructible body for himself. Because of intervention by Nadia Blonsky, Betty Ross, Doc Samson, and Iron Man, the plan failed and the Leader died again.[34]
These events, bizarre and nebulous as they seem, may or may not have taken place in this form... they may be partly true, or entirely a construct by the extra-dimensional demon Nightmare in a bid to avenge himself on the Hulk.[volume & issue needed] At present, the Leader has a body incorporating traits from both his previous incarnations; it is unknown exactly how he acquired it, but it may have been relatively easy, given his history.[volume & issue needed]
The Leader is captured by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Hulkbusters, and brought to trial for his crimes. He was represented by Attorney Mallory Book from She-Hulk's firm Goodman, Lieber, Kurtzberg & Holliway. During the trial, Ms. Book argued that the Leader was not responsible for his actions since the Gamma exposure forcibly changed his personality. To prove her point, Book compared She-Hulk to Jennifer Walters, revealing that Jennifer was much more promiscuous in her She-Hulk form. In the second day of the trial, Leader's humanoid droids arrived to rescue him. Instead of escaping, the Leader called off the attack, opting to see the trial to its conclusion, as he correctly predicted that his defense was going to win. He was found not guilty.[35] It is as yet unclear whether this person is indeed the original Leader, or the Samuel Sterns of "Earth-Alpha", the inhabitants of which had been swapping places with their 616 counterparts for a while prior to this trial.
Now a free man (whichever one he may be), the Leader teleported the Hulk's allies, the Warbound, to Nevada. There, he used Hiroim of the Warbound, harnessing his tectonic power to activate a gamma powered shield over a portion of the desert. It is revealed that the Leader is dying, and that he constructed the dome to cure him. Due to a miscalculation, the energy of the dome actually kills him faster.[36] In battle with the Warbound, the Leader is stabbed through the chest with an iron pipe. The Leader then absorbed the power of the dome, turning himself into a gray-skinned giant. Hiroim also absorbed the power, and battled the Leader, draining both of their powers. In death, Hiroim channels his old power into Kate Waynseboro, who attacks the Leader, and forces him to teleport away.[37]
The Leader, apparently healthy and in the form he originally had, appears once again, this time with designs on the Hulk's son Skaar. It is eventually revealed that he, along with a select group of genius super-villains, is part of a longtime collaboration he calls The Intelligencia.[38] Leader was also responsible for mutating Marlo Chandler into the new Harpy. During that time, he planned revenge on Kate Waynesboro.[39]
At the conclusion of the Red Hulk storyline, a newly rejuvenated Red Hulk approaches the Leader and gets close enough to him to completely drain the body-altering gamma radiation from the Leader's physiology. Red Hulk does this as a punishment for the Leader's altering of Ross's/Red Hulk's daughter into the Red She-Hulk. Red Hulk leaves Sterns alive to suffer, reminding him that as the person he has been reverted to with his original, well below average intelligence, Sterns will never be able to duplicate a gamma-infusion and return his powers as The Leader... at least not on his own.[40]
A powerless Leader is later seen in custody demanding "gamma" (the one thing no one is willing to give him) if he was to divulge any information on stopping the Intelligencia's failsafe doomsday plans.[41]
At the end of the second issue of the new Thunderbolts series as part of the Marvel NOW! event, a powerless Samuel Sterns is seen apparently housed within a shipping container. His head is connected to a machine apparently emitting red gamma radiation (in the fashion of the Red Hulk) with the harness in the shape of the Leader's formerly tall head. Samuel Sterns is apparently in the custody of Red Hulk.[42] During the third issue, Samuel Sterns has reddish hued skin, but with no apparent powers. Once Deadpool sees that the Red Hulk is employing Samuel Sterns, he expresses his view that the Punisher will not be pleased. As soon as the Punisher sees Samuel Sterns, he shoots him right between the eyes, killing him and the Red Hulk's plan.[43] During the fight against Madman, Red Hulk took him to a pipe line that feeds Gamma energy to Madman's lab.[44] Red Hulk then absorbed the energy himself and then force fed it to the Leader, bringing him back to life.[45] Leader then joins the Thunderbolts under the new alias Red Leader.[46]
Powers and abilities[edit]
The Leader has superhuman mental acumen, as a result of his exposure to an explosion of gamma-irradiated waste. He possesses enhanced intuition, pattern solving, information storage and retrieval, and logical and philosophical structuring. His ability to predict probable outcomes of tactical and strategic scenarios is so advanced that it borders on clairvoyance. The Leader has a perfect memory with the ability to recall every moment since the accident that gave him his powers. In addition to his superhuman intelligence, the Leader has limited but potent telekinetic and telepathic powers. He is able to mentally control non-gamma-mutated individuals upon touching them, and has toppled a very weakened Hulk with his telekinetic blasts.
The Leader possesses knowledge of genetics, physics, and robotics, and has designed a large number of sophisticated weapons, vehicles, computers, androids, and synthetic humanoids. He is particularly adept at genetic engineering and manipulating radiation for various nefarious purposes.
On occasion, the Leader showed the ability to turn himself back into Samuel Sterns, but this ability resulted in him losing all memory of his identity as the Leader as Sterns's mind was ill-equipped to cope with the Leader's intellect (although he always remembered everything when he turned back into the Leader again).
Other versions[edit]
Marvel Cinematic Universe/Marvel's The Avengers tie ins[edit]
Prior to the release of The Avengers in 2012, Marvel ran a series of canon tie in comics entitled "Avengers Prelude: Fury's Big Week", which take place within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In issues 6 and 7, Sterns is seen undergoing a rapid head mutation just as he is discovered by Natasha Romanoff who stumbles upon him immediately after Hulk has escaped. Although his brainpower has already drastically increased to the point where he can pinpoint the exact location of Black Widow's birth just by a brief hint of Stalingrad in her accent, Natasha shoots him in the leg when he attempts to bribe her by offering to help her return to her home and he is detained into S.H.I.E.L.D. custody.[47]
Marvel Zombies[edit]
The Leader makes an appearance as a zombie in Marvel Zombies vs. The Army of Darkness in the horde that overwhelms and infects the Punisher. He has a giant hole blown through his cranium which does not stop him.[48] He is also in Marvel Zombies 3 where he is looking over food and medical supplies that other zombies have found as an offering to a zombie Kingpin. The Leader determines how long the others can feed on the human clones. The Leader is sent with other zombified superbeings to find and destroy the Machine Man. The android gains the upper hand in the battle and destroys all his pursuers. The Zombie Leader then kills himself by ripping out his arm, using it to take out all of his brain, and ripping out his own body.[49]
Ultimate Marvel[edit]
The Ultimate version of The Leader made his first appearance in Ultimate Human #1, a miniseries starring Ultimate Iron Man and Ultimate Hulk.[50] This Leader is also the Ultimate version of MI6 agent Pete Wisdom. In the Ultimate universe, Wisdom is an ex-British Intelligence agent thrown out of the organization after testing his "British Enhancile Program" on himself, transforming him into The Leader.[51] Wisdom has psychic and mental abilities similar to the original Leader, but requires a wheelchair and a halo brace to support the weight of his enlarged cranium. The Leader attempts to steal Tony Stark's nanotechnology as Banner and Stark work together to try to incorporate it into Banner's physiology in the hopes that it will grant him control over his transformations into the Hulk. When Stark commands a decoy Iron-Tech robot into the base of the Leader, Banner transforms into the Hulk. The Hulk resists the Leader's influence, and pounds him into the ground. The Leader, almost dead, commands an C-17 down onto the Hulk, ultimately killing Wisdom/Leader.[52]
In Ultimate Mystery an elderly Dr. Samuel Sterns (who is seen in a wheelchair) is amongst a group of younger versions of 616 villains and heroes including Doctor Octopus, Arnim Zola III, Misty Knight, Nathaniel Essex, and Dr. Layla Miller. They represent a brain trust for Roxxon Industries.[53] He is later transformed into a Hulk/Leader hybrid where he attacks Spider-Man, but is defeated.[54]

- The Leader appears in Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H.,[55] voiced by James Arnold Taylor. In the episode "Doorway to Destruction: Part 2", it was revealed that he was the one who supplied the mind-control technology to Annihilus. At the end of the episode, it was shown that Leader had planted Skaar on the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. to learn about them in exchange that Leader tells Skaar about his past. In the episode "Hulk-Busted," Hulk is shown to be aware that Leader is using Skaar after viewing the security footage of their base and tells A-Bomb that he has plans to manipulate Skaar into "giving them Leader." In the episode "The Incredible Shrinking Hulks," Leader revealed the truth between Leader's connections with Skaar and Skaar's lost memories. Leader then attacks the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. whee he states to them that he has promised their destruction. Skaar then makes his choice where he grabs Leader and goes on the attack enough for the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. to be freed from Leader's mental attack. The Agents of S.M.A.S.H. go on the attack and defeat him. In the episode "Into the Negative Zone," Leader has Blastaar use special snakes from the Negative Zone in order to petrify the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. Hulk teams up with Thing to enter the Negative Zone in order to find the snakes and get the venom for an antidote. When Hulk ends up captured, Leader revealed that he had been watching Hulk's web show where it was revealed that he confiscated Annihilus' Cosmic Control Rod following his failure, supplied Sauron with the weapons for his plot and tipped off Laufey on where he can find Ymir in exchange that he gains equal control of the world with them. Hulk manages to break free and beat up Leader. Hulk and Thing get the antidote to the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. After the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. are cured, they find that Hulk has Leader in their cell. In the episode "Red Rover," Leader tries to get Skaar to let him out so that he can take him back to Sakaar in order to trace his origins. Skaar didn't hear any of that since he was listening to music on A-Bomb's walkman. When Doctor Doom attacked the Agents of S.M.A.S.H.'s base to look for their energy generator, Doctor Doom finds Leader who tells Doctor Doom where it is located in exchange for freeing him and teaming up. Doctor Doom turns down Leader's offer since he only works with villains on the epic level. In the episode "Abombination," Hulk taps on the forcefield of Leader's cell to torture him into what he knows about Abomination. In the episode "Monsters No More," Hulk visits Leader in his cell where he discovers that Leader has escaped and his hologram states that he has placed five gamma bombs around Vista Verde. While the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. are searching for the gamma bombs, they encounter Leader's Agents of C.R.A.S.H. (consisting of Abomination, Absorbing Man, Blastaar, Sauron, and Titania) who are wearing adamantium-made stealth belts so that nobody can see them. When Hulk's statue is knocked down, Leader speaks through a hologram planted there when he stated that the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. are the gamma bombs that he was talking about. When the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. fall back to their base, they find that Leader hadn't actually left their base as he plans to blow up Vista Verde with the gamma reactor. As Leader disappears into a wormhole, the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. end up throwing the gamma bomb through the wormhole as they are sucked through as well. The Agents of S.M.A.S.H. then regain conscious in a Sakaar arena that is run by Leader. In the episode "Planet Leader," it is revealed that Leader had used control disks on Sakaar's inhabitants to serve him where some of them are his guards while others work as slaves in the Sakaar mines. While Leader has Hulk, A-Bomb, Red Hulk, and Skaar fight for his amusement, he has She-Hulk be controlled to be her queen. When Hulk and Skaar arrive at a cave that Skaar recognizes, the cave paintings reveal that Leader took Skaar from the family that adopted him and used him to enslave Sakaar. Leader and his controlled soldiers arrive and capture Hulk and Skaar. Leader then makes Hulk and Skaar fight each other in the arena. When Leader tortures everyone with his control disks, She-Hulk uses one that was given to her by Elloe Kaifi to attach to Leader which overloads his control on the Sakaarians. Hulk then attacks Leader with Skaar's help and defeats him. Though Leader escapes while nobody is looking as Elloe Kaifi states that Sakaar will now be ruled by its inhabitants. When the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. use Leader's ship to head back to Earth, it is revealed that Leader had rigged the ship so that the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. could get lost in space.

In this film, he is a university professor trying to help Bruce Banner find a cure for his transformations, while operating under the alias of "Mr. Blue". After turning Emil Blonsky into the Abomination, some of Hulk's blood drips into an open headwound causing his cranium to rapidly expand as he grins maniacally.

It takes a whole lot of power tools to run a theater company. And now, thanks to a bankruptcy auction, those tools...
I'm sure glad to see that the judge had a few sympathetic words "I wish for those childhood days when baseball was just a game, it certainly has changed," ….now do the right thing and sell this team to someone who will make an effort in bringing back those days.
It was a good day for MLB.

Church goes bananas for fair-trade fortnight (From This Is Local London)

St Mary's church in Finchley goes bananas for fair-trade
Updated 12:16pm Monday 3rd March 2014 in News By Charlie Peat
A Finchley church went bananas to help raise money for fair-trade.
Clergy at St Mary's Church in Hendon Lane, Finchley donned banana outfits as they raised money for Fairtrade Fortnight.
In recent years, the church has raised money for workers in Malawi, but this year turned its attention to the banana trade in Columbia.
The Rev Stefan Chrysostomou wear a banana outfit and a communal conga wove its way through the church.
Organiser Lynne Radnedge said raising awareness for Fairtrade is just as important as raising money.
She said: "Everyone has been fantastic sports for dressing up and getting involved. There are couples here who are into their 80s and are still dressing up for the occasion.
"Our theme this year is to help Fairtrade workers in Columbia who work in the banana trade, earn a decent living.
"People complain that Fairtrade costs more and that is true, but look at where the money is going and there is a reason why."
MP for Finchley and Golders Green Mike Freer used pedal power to help create fresh smoothies for passers by.
Vicar the Rev Phillip Davison said that he was thankful to avoid donning the fruity outfits this time around.
He said: "I dressed up last year so I have passed those duties on for this year and the banana outfits have gone down a treat.
"We believe it is very important to support fair-trade and we want to raise as much as possible to send over to Columbia."

6Lana Del Rey is not a caricature
Lana Del Rey is kinda nuts, to the point where people are wondering if this whole thing is not just Elizabeth Grant (her real name) playing a character called Lana Del Rey. Not so, says Lana – she's who she's meant to be and she doesn't do anything with anyone else in mind.
From NPR:
Not everybody has thought it's a good idea to have lines like "He hit me and it felt a kiss."
Definitely. But that's been the theme of my career. The thing about me is, coming from an alternative music background and singing for nine years, being basically invisible, I'm so used to writing for myself — and at the end of the day, I do it because I feel like I have to. So when I'm recording or writing, I don't have other people in mind. It's not always comfortable for me, but I don't not say what I want to.
Is Lana Del Rey a character played by Elizabeth Grant?
No. Lana Del Rey is exactly who she's supposed to be: Free enough to be her own person, and that's exactly who I am. I'm not like a persona. I'm not a caricature of myself.
She spends time in the interview discussing her thoughts on "surrendering" to men, as well (it's an idea she's "not uncomfortable" with), which is interesting but seems a bit like bullshit to me.
I don't know – I listened to Ultraviolence… or shall I say, I tried to listen to Ultraviolence and then nearly fell asleep by the end of the first song. It's all just TOO maudlin for me, too over-the-top. I could tolerate the first album and even liked a lot of it, but I've heard enough about California, booze, pick-up trucks, lipstick and blue jeans to last me a lifetime. Is it a grower?

6 Responses to "Lana Del Rey is not a caricature"
the "he hit me & it felt like a kiss" line is from a Carol King song that Courtney Love made famous again in the 90′s. I love the new LDR album. But there are a lot of musical references that I've heard before. It's just like what everyone always says about her music, it's old mixed with new and it sounds beautiful. I think that she is a caricature of herself. She's an artist and she's selling albums. Almost every artist in this industry is selling something about themselves. But she's still the one writing her own songs and singing them and bringing them to life so in that sense it probably is authentic to her.
Lana is showing beautiful and charming in the Picture .
I like her new album but as always with her music it takes time and the right atmosphere. Definitley no everyday music but still great.
Try 'money power glory' and 'fucked my way up to the top', my personal favorites so far.
Eggactly. Is she admitting she literally 'fucked' her way to the top? anyone know if this exists? Maybe it was her alter ego that made it. ;D

I am looking for my Great grandmother's family in Canada. She was Virginie Grenier married to Francois Exavier Poire.
Their children were: Celonire Poire married to Marjorique Rodrigue, Florence Poire married to David Giradin, Victorine Poire who never married, Maria Poire (my grandmother) married to Louis Alfred Lefebvre (my grandfather), Valerie Poire married to Henre Lareau(Loreau?) and Marie Rose Poire married to Desere Rodrigue. I am not sure that the spelling of Poire might have been changed from Poirer, because I have found a picture of cousins marked Augustin Poirer and his wife Deline. I know that the were in Drummondville and coaticook at some time. I would appreciate any response. Thank you!

Shortly after Veronica reveals the true nature of her relationship with Liz, Edith says "That don't affect the brain, does it?" The camera angle then changes, and the shadow of the boom mic is visible to the left of Liz's head, then it moves upward and out of the screenshot.
Cousin Liz and Veronica's apartment appears suspiciously similar to the Jeffersons' East Side Condo!
Edith: (to Veronica) It must have been terrible loving somebody and not being able to talk about it.
Archie: People like that teaching our kids, I'm sure God's sittin' up there in judgment!
Edith: Well, sure he is, but he's God; you ain't! Archie, listen, you wouldn't want to be the cause of somebody losin' their job!
Archie: Ohhhh.....
Edith: Archie, she's all alone in the world now and she's got no one to take care of her like I have. And she can't help how she feels. And she didn't hurt you, so why should you wanna hurt her? Archie, I can't believe you'd do anything that mean.

If You're Just Not That Into the World Cup, Try This New Documentary
twelve reasons why even disinterested parties might want to tune in. But when you are ready for a break, here is one reason to tune out: This Is Not a Ball, a new documentary by Brazilian artist Vik Muniz, released today on Netflix.
The film was codirected by Juan Rendón and Muniz, who is known for making drawings out of unexpected materials (chocolate, caviar). Muniz himself was once the subject of a documentary, Lucy Walker's Oscar-nominated Waste Land, which followed him into one of the world's largest landfills, where he raised awareness about garbage pickers by collaborating with them on a series of portraits made from trash. This Is Not a Ball tracks his attempts to create a large-scale piece in one of Mexico's biggest stadiums—using 10,000 soccer balls.
But Muniz's quest is only one aspect of this 90-minute documentary. The film is also about the different meanings that a soccer ball can have around the world. From Brazil's favelas, where children view soccer as a way to get out of poverty, to Sierra Leone, where a team comprised of amputees uses the sport as a means of healing war wounds both physical and psychological, This Is Not a Ball shows that soccer is more than just a global pastime. The film does not skate around the more controversial aspects of soccer either, dutifully covering both the recent anti–World Cup protests in Brazil and the sweatshop-like conditions in Pakistan factories, where 40 percent of soccer balls are produced.
Overall, it's a fascinating and thorough look into the worlds—plural—of the sport, and it features cameos by many interesting figures, including artist Gabriel Orozco and scientist Neil deGrasse Tyson. Stream it now, soccer detractors, and you may even find yourself watching this weekend's games.
12 soccer players who are reason enough to watch the World Cup.
