By Ben Morse Graduation day for most may come in the spring, but Camp Hammond hardly constitutes anything resembling "normal," so with this week's AVENGERS: THE INITIATIVE #8, we begin to bid a fond farewell to some of the book's regular cast as they head off for the greener pasture of the 50-State Initiative. And with AVENGERS: THE INITIATIVE #9, hitting stores January 23, it's time to meet some of the new faculty and cadets set to wash out, have holes blown through their heads, get beaten into comas by Slapstick and maybe—if they're lucky—become heroes. We put the newest Ant-Man, Eric O'Grady, under the microscope last time around in Initiative Initiation, but here's what to expect from the rest of the fresh faces hanging around base. TASKMASTER
One of the Marvel Universe's most masterful mercenaries, the man known only as Taskmaster possesses a superhuman photographic memory that allows him to perfectly mimic the movements of any other person he observes.
Early on in his career as a super criminal, Taskmaster elected to forsake risky ventures like world domination and even major heists in favor of using his abilities to train others as henchmen and lackeys for the likes of the Red Skull and other heavy duty bad guys. Tasky's flunky franchises have proven quite profitable for the evil entrepreneur over the years, but as he has run up
against the Avengers and other heroes on numerous occasions, he keeps his own skill fresh by constantly studying video footage of everyone from Captain America to Spider-Man.
In addition to prepping ambitious young men and women for lives as walking cannon fodder, Taskmaster also takes on mercenary gigs and contracts on folks like Moon Knight to help pay the bills. For a time, the skull-faced fiend associated himself with Agency X, the merc squad headed up by Agent X, a doppelganger of Tasky's old rival Deadpool.
Taskmaster also has on his resume the training of John Walker, now known as USAgent, when he got tapped as the new Captain America. Now the U.S. government has come calling again, recruiting Taskmaster and his unique skill set as the new drill instructor at Camp Hammond, replacing the still comatose Gauntlet.
A card-carrying B.A.D. Girl—acronym and all—this sultry serpent once captured Captain America's heart and will soon slither her way onto Camp Hammond as the instructor most likely to make the male recruits' libidos go A.W.O.L.
Rachel Leighton trained under fellow new Initiative initiate Taskmaster in hand-to-hand combat. She had her skills supplemented with both an array of throwing diamonds and further instruction under Anaconda, who recruited her into the original Serpent Society as Diamondback.
Despite consorting with a pack of snakes determined to wrap Captain America in their deadly coils, Diamondback developed an attraction to the Star-Spangled Avenger, and even went on a date with Cap, learning he dug her right back. Her amorous attentions got Rachel tossed from the Serpent Society, but Diamondback drew support from gal pals Black Mamba and Asp, who also left the group. The trio forming the mercenary group B.A.D. Girls.
Diamondback spent some time as Cap's main squeeze, but ultimately felt her criminal past made her unworthy of Steve Rogers' love. She has since split her time between pursuing bucks with Asp and Mamba, and pursuing redemption as a sometime operative of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Created by comics legends Marv Wolfman and Steve Ditko, Tako Shamara took up the mantel of the Dragon Lord in order to protect his native Korean fishing village from the monstrous reptilian creature called the Wani.
Tako's journey along the path of the hero actually began centuries earlier when the residents of that same fishing village made the mistake of riling up minor Korean deity and notorious crank O-Wata-Tsu-Mi, who unleashed the Wani on them. Tako's ancestor, also named Tako Shamara, repelled the creature and his son Kiri vowed their bloodline would fend off the monster should he ever return.
After countless years of magic being handed down through his family, Tako stepped up to the plate and hit a home run that got the attention of Tony Stark and the Initiative.
Wallace Jackson could be considered a forerunner of those punks who you watch on shows like "Super Sweet 16" nowadays. This red-headed goober chose to celebrate turning old enough to drive by stealing a battle suit created by his NASA scientist uncle and hopping a bus from Texas to New York City. Why? So he could fight his hero Spider-Man for "fun."
Spidey didn't find Red 9's antics terribly amusing, and despite attempts to hold back, he eventually gave the youngster a solid thrashing. However, the Webhead saw Wallace's potential later in the day when he helped out a group of elderly patients at the hospital thwart a corrupt doctor.
Red 9 gets his first real shot at the big time when he joins the Initiative.
One could say Delilah "Dee Dee" Deerborn, aka Geiger, benefited from a bit of nepotism as far as joining the Initiative, given that her "daddy" Dan Slott, who created her in his 1996 DOC SAMSON mini-series, also writes AVENGERS: THE INITIATIVE.
An Empire State University student who followed the sterling example of ESU alumni Peter Parker and got too close to a radioactive experiment—in this case a gamma accelerator—Dee Dee wound up with the somewhat involuntary ability to mimic the powers, personality and appearance of any gamma-enhanced superhuman she came into proximity of.
Geiger's early lack of control over her powers led gamma-powered psychiatrist Doc Samson to mistake her for the villain Patchwork, but after he learned her true nature, he helped to provide rough on-the-job training as the duo pursued the real Patchwork.
Hopefully Camp Hammond will provide Geiger with the knowledge she needs to use her powers for good, lest the Marvel Universe have another Hulk on its hands.
No info available on this rookie, other than Slott's promise that, "once you find out his name, you'll realize this is a character you've seen before, just not in the 'real' Marvel Universe."
AVENGERS: THE INITIATIVE #9, written by Dan Slott and Christos Gage with art by Stefano Caselli, ships January 23, but before then you can read the first appearance of Taskmaster with Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited.

Watch Sofia Vergara's proposal from Nick Loeb! (VIDEO)
Though Sofia Vergara and Nick Loeb have not yet confirmed the news, most have heard of the couple's recent engagement. But now, fans can actually watch the proposal take place! Vergara's son, Manolo, recorded much of his mother's huge 40th birthday celebration for his YouTube series, Mi Vida con Toty… and it looks like he unwittingly recorded the actual moment Loeb popped the question.
Read more ¿Qué más?: Get an inside look at Sofia Vergara's EPIC 40th birthday celebration!
In the video, one of Vergara's lifelong dreams comes true when she and Loeb get the chance to climb to the top of a pyramid while exploring Mayan ruins in Chichen Itza, Mexico. And the experience was made even better when the 36-year-old Loeb asked the 40-year-old Modern Family star to marry him! After the proposal, the clip also shows the two descending the stairs and Manolo asking to see the ring, although Vergara herself never acknowledges that it's an engagement ring.
Want to stay updated on other Latin Hollywood news? Like us on Facebook!
Wow! If that really is the way the whole thing happened, that is one amazingly sweet proposal! What better location could she have asked for than while standing atop a famous site? Plus, it's perfect timing on Loeb's part. Waiting until that one special moment when it was just the two of them, instead of at some other point during the birthday festivities, must have made it all the more meaningful and memorable.
Watch Manolo's recording of the proposal here:

My husband had a very beloved jacket that was disintegrating. So I thought I'll give it a try, I cut it apart and made a pattern after the old one, I added 5cm on the length (according to his wishes) and voila!
Aug 18, 2008, 07.29 PMby thehessonfamily
great jacket. you are very talented. did you happen to make a pattern for future reference…? ♥
Dec 6, 2007, 11.31 PMby jeffrey
really nice
Aug 30, 2007, 02.51 PMby bellamabella
this is great. its so professional. i kinda wish i had a guy the house so i could make him clothes.
Aug 30, 2007, 05.41 AMby lilo
Thankx for all your kind feed-back, heartwarming!
Benedikta, my husband likes casual clothing; he is very tall, so he has triuble in finding clothes long enough (e.g. sleeves). The jacket has been a hit, he wants more :) He also likes polo-shirts and casual (jeans-type) trousers.
Elaine, I was considering to reuse the zippers, but they were kinda worn down so they had to go, but the rope and the stoppers at the hood come from the old jacket. The old jacket had also a stretch (net) lining, mine is plain black thin (non-stretch) cotton, so I had to adjust for it (cut my lining bigger than the original – I had great help from the video on this site showing how to line a jacket, Steffi I think it was).
Nora, the initials are mine :-)

Fabulous! Are the letters his initials?

another great piece! your work looks so professional. did you reuse any parts of the old jacket to make the new one?

I used this couple of times and I felt like my pore is getting worse. yes, right after I wash my face, it would look red and would go away after a short period of time, but after the redness disappears, my skin went back to look the way it was. and now I feel like i have more cloged pores than before. will not repurchase.
This is indeed very inexpensive but it's just too much for my sensitive skin. I have to be very careful to leave it on for just the right amount of time or it will end up over-drying and causing irritation, leading to new breakouts. By far the worst part about it, IMO, is how much it itches as it's drying, it was just too much to bear for me.
Read about this being a great natural and inexpensive face mask. Bought a huge container for under $5. First I mixed the clay with water which was a disaster. It was like trying to apply globs of glue onto my face. Horrible. As it was drying I started to feel the pulsating that was described on the container. It was a bit odd but I put up with it in hopes that it was sucking all the gunk out of my pores. After washing it off my face was bright red and stayed that way for about an hour. My skin though was shiny and squeaky clean looking. The next morning I could see that it had forced some clogged pores to the surface which was great. The next time I tried it I mixed in some apple cider vinegar and some honey. That was definitely the way to go. The clay mixed with the vinegar caused it to fizz and then when the honey was added it almost became a whipped, though still dense, texture. I applied it to my face and left it on for about 20 minutes. It didn't dry as quickly on the areas where it was applied a bit thicker so when I washed the mask off I didn't get the full effect of the mask. Face was red like this first time but it felt more moisturized due to the honey I suspect. I'm a fan of the Queen Helene Julep mask but I like this alot better since it's just the clay without added ingredients, except of course the water and the vinegar and honey if you want. This isn't a great fancy item but it does it's job very well and the price and amount you get is great. Don't need another mask besides this one. Will keep purchasing this. Great item.

This is my HG mask. sometimes I have those days where my face just looks dull and my pores feel clogged. So at night before bed i'll put this on for 20 minutes, and im telling you it sucks out everything that's wrong with my skin. The next moring i'll wake up with the smooth, glowing, clear skin. It has never let me down. I love how well it hardens. I always wished there was a mask out there that does what this does but I didnt know it was out there. Im sooo happy I found it. I paid 6 bucks at a health food store. Ive had the tub for like, 6 months now and its still a little over half full. I've started using it sometimes everyday or every other day, to maintain my skin clear. But I have strong skin that isnt sensitive, so if you are sensitive, 1-2 times a week and youre golden. I mix it with apple cider vinegar. My skin is left red for about 10 minutes after I take it off but I dont care cause I know that its that way cause it got all the gunk sucked out of it. I LOVE LOVe this mask. I dont know how I ever lived without it! Oh yeah, and you CANT beat the price!
UPDATE: I'm so in love with this mask. In fact im wearing it right now. I still use it everynight. If I had to pick just 1 thing out of all the hundreds of products that I have, and throw the rest out, id pick this. Truly worth every single freaking, effin penny.

I received this from a nice MUA'er, and I love it! First, I wash my face as usual. Then I mix the mask with just water, because my skin is so sensitive, and leave it on for 20 minutes. My skin feels wonderfully soft and deeply cleansed afterwards. I tend to get flaky skin, so I put jojoba oil all over my face after rinsing the mask off. This is a great weekly treatment mask for people with oily/acne prone skin like mine.

I love this mask. It makes my skin glow and removes all impurities. I play around with it by adding different ingredients. This is what I like best so far:
3:1 Apple Cider Vinegar to Water
A DROP of Tea Tree Oil
A few drops of Lavendar Oil
I use this once or twice a week - if you have sensitive skin be careful to leave it on for 10-15 mins only at first:)
I first discovered how much my skin loves clay masks when I sampled the mud mask by pur minerals. I would have repurchased it, but at $25 for a small tube, it just didn't seem worth my money--I'm convinced that with many cosmetics, we end up paying for the name more so than the product. Thanks to all of you, I found this product as I searched for an alternative. The clay used in the pur minerals mudd mask product is the same kind of clay found in aztec secret. I love how soft it leaves my skin. I mix it with ACV and have not found this to be the least bit harsh on my skin.
This is the only mask i have used that really does pull junk out of your pores. It really tightens your skin (to the point where it is almost uncomfortable) and it gives your skin a nice glow for the next day or two after you use it, Plus it really seems to clear up your skin. Another great thing about this is that you can add whatever you want to it and make your own custom mask. I use 1/2 water 1/2 acv. on a side note, this does make your skin pretty red for a couple of hours but that does go away the glow you get afterwards is worth it
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Mint julep mask works WAY better than this one. BUT I do like it when mixed with kaolin clay, sulfur, alum (sulfur takes care of blackheads, alum shrinks pores, kaolin makes it not as harsh and drying as it is). And don't get too excited about pulsating, it doesn't pull out anything from your pores if they are really clogged, nothing will (think about extractions or salicylic peels), you feel pulsating just because it dries! You will have the same sensation if you apply any mud on your face, when it dries your face starts pulsating. It does dissolve small blackheads but if I use it mixed with sulfur.
Despite the rave reviews, I really disliked this mask. First of all, the smell is unpleasant because your supposed to mix apple cider vinegar with the clay. I don't find the smell of vinegar to be nice, least of all on my face where I can really smell it. Secondly, the mask dries up so much that it is actually painful for me. Your skin pulsates because the mask dries to the point that it feels like concrete and your skin is being pulled to extremes. Thirdly, once I washed it off, I saw no noticeable change in the appearance or texture of my skin. If I'm going to to through the trouble of mixing it up by scratch, putting up with the bad smell, and enduring pain, I should see some sort of improvement to make it worth my time. For a good clay mask, I like Got2Be's Pure Intent. You can see the oil being sucked up and the smell is pleasant. No pain, either.

William Leonard Roberts II--owns 25 Wingstop restaurants and says that while he supports "the right to bear arms" it would be best if his customers leave their guns in the car. Ross was involved in a shooting in which he was ambushed in March 2013, and at the time police said he "was carrying a 9mm handgun with 12 live rounds." According to the Huffington Post, Ross said he has a concealed carry license, but added: "When I go into public places, when I go out and enter certain places, I believe it's best to leave your firearm in your vehicle. Go in and enjoy your meal." Ross was asked about the open carry demonstrations that have become more common over the past year, and he pointed out that much of that was "in Texas." He then said: "I believe bringing a rifle into any closed building is too much." Follow AWR Hawkins on Twitter @AWRHawkins Reach him directly at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Max Boot: What the Snowden Acolytes Won't Tell Youtags: WSJ, Max Boot, PRISM scandal, Edward Snowden, NSA
Max Boot is a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations and author of "Invisible Armies: An Epic History of Guerrilla Warfare from Ancient Times to the Present" (Liveright, 2013).
'The dark night of fascism is always descending in the United States and yet lands only in Europe."
That quip from Tom Wolfe is worth savoring as the U.S. prepares to celebrate the Fourth of July—and as overheated rhetoric emanates from fans of Edward Snowden, the proud thief of American secrets. Even supporters, like Sen. Rand Paul, who express discomfort with how he fled to China and Russia, nevertheless applaud Mr. Snowden for alerting Americans to a supposedly dangerous infringement of liberty from the government's monitoring of electronic communications. Mr. Snowden's more extreme acolytes credit him with stopping the rise of a new tyranny in Washington.
Pentagon Papers leaker Daniel Ellsberg recently took to the pages of Britain's Guardian newspaper—Mr. Snowden's megaphone of choice—to discuss the purloining of National Security Agency surveillance secrets. Mr. Ellsberg admitted that the "United States is not now a police state." Yet he claimed that "we do have the full electronic and legislative infrastructure of such a state." All it would take to bring about full-blown dictatorship, Mr. Ellsberg said, would be "a war that led to a large-scale anti-war movement" or "one more attack on the scale of 9/11." Mr. Snowden, he concluded, is saving us from an apparatus that the old East German secret police would approve of, the "United Stasi of America"—in other words, "the FBI, CIA, and NSA."...

It appears cooler heads did prevail. A rift over funds provided by the Columbus Convention and Visitors Bureau to the Columbus-Lowndes Development Link appears on its way to healing. The CVB voted Monday to give $178,500 to the Link, which manages industrial recruitment and serves as the city's chamber of commerce. That's a $18,500 cut from what the Link was expecting.
Sports channel ESPN has been airing a promotional commercial featuring Ole Miss and the failed student campaign to make Admiral Ackbar, a squid-headed "Star Wars" character, the new school mascot.
Another classic Columbus dust-up is in the making, this time between the Columbus-Lowndes Development Link and the Columbus Convention and Visitors Bureau.
The Columbus Planning Commission and the City Council are locked in a ping-pong match, with one business owner, and a Columbus neighborhood, unfairly batted back and forth.
Mississippi leads the nation in teenage pregnancy. Our Legislature is also a leader -- in keeping comprehensive sex education out of public schools. There seems to be a connection here.
Despite the down economy and crippling state budget cuts, Mississippi University for Women's interim president, Allegra Brigham, reported there are more than a few rays of sunshine emanating from the Columbus college.
Cadence's about-face on Wednesday, agreeing to be scooped up by a private investment firm one week after it had already agreed to be bought by Trustmark, is a positive outcome for the Starkville and Columbus communities.
Mississippi's community colleges look like a great deal, the more we look at the numbers.
We've seen interesting discussions on our website regarding the case of the Sulligent, Ala., football coach who is accused of child molestation charges, both in federal court and in courts in Monroe and Itawamba counties.
Many of us can still remember when all the banks in town were either locally owned or closely held -- National Bank of Commerce, First Columbus National Bank, Merchants and Farmers among them.
Franklin Academy was awhirl with activity Tuesday morning -- literally. The University of Mississippi Medical Center's MedEvac helicopter landed in the Magnolia Bowl, a strong symbol of the landing of a partnership between the Jackson medical center and the Columbus elementary school.
It actually felt chilly Monday morning. Fall is here, and we couldn't be more ready.
Economic tides seem to ebb and flow in downtown Columbus, as they do most places. Businesses come and go. Stores and restaurants open, then go dark, and are replaced with something new.
Columbus has fielded its first two pedaling patrolmen, who will be policing high-crime areas on mountain bikes. Patrolmen Kenneth Brewer and Dwight Smith are on bikes part-time until they complete their training, which will enable them to train other officers.
A local high school student's death in a tragic hunting accident has brought out the best in many of those who knew him -- and many who didn't.
One of the joys of the newspaper business is we're inundated with spam e-mail on a daily basis -- and during a heated election season, much of it is political.
The economy may have slowed things down, but the PACCAR engine plant -- the newest and one of the biggest feathers in the region's industrial cap -- is suddenly humming along. The company, which has typically remained guarded about what's happening inside its Lowndes County plant, said Monday it has already produced more than 1,000 engines at the facility.
How many hometowns does Tennessee Williams have? Clarksdale, New Orleans, Provincetown, Mass., and Columbus all have a claim on the playwright and all hold literary events in his honor.
As ironic as it sounds, some local inmates can thank getting locked up for giving them a jump start on their education.
Tennessee Williams scholars, actors, and even some friends and family of the famed playwright have been gathering in Columbus this week for the tribute and tour held each year in the Pulitzer-winner's honor.

Okay, stop with the eye roll, okay. Yes, I know, I am living on a sailboat located in the Marshall Islands smack in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, but hey, everything is relative, right?
Writing is difficult enough, but trying to concentrate here on our mooring off the town of Majuro is getting more and more difficult. This place has become crazy crowded compared to what it was like a couple of months ago when we returned from our big trip abroad. The moment when I knew I just had to get away came on Tuesday when I saw an unusual-looking white boat far out in the lagoon. We're used to all the dozens of the big purse seiners here, but this one looked more like a yacht. I grabbed the binoculars and sure enough, it was a pretty big looking motor yacht. When she pulled in and anchored a few hundred yards off our boat, we could make out her flag (Cayman Islands) but not the name. But soon our friend Philip sailed by her on his Outremer Catamaran on his way back from Eneko, and he emailed Wayne that the yacht (as seen in the photo above) was called Senses and she belonged to none other that Google founder Larry Page.
Since we arrived here we have also seen the arrival of four cruising sailboats. The Marshall Islands are a refuge at this time of year. Many boats love to sail the islands of the South Pacific: French Polynesia, the Cook Islands, Tonga, Fiji, etc. but just like off the tropical coasts of North America, the South Pacific spawns cyclones — or hurricanes as they are called in North America. The South Pacific season is the opposite of the North American season, so while friends of mine are getting ready to leave Trinidad and Grenada, here in Majuro, the place is starting to fill up. Statistically speaking, the areas found ten degrees to the north and south of the equator have few enough cyclonic storms to be considered "safe zones," so that is why folks head south to Trinidad or north to the Marshall Islands out here. The other choice is to head to higher latitudes like New Zealand, but just like heading north up the east coast, it puts the boats having to cross lots of open water on the shoulder season between cyclones and winter storms.
While the Marshall Islands are part of Micronesia, they are not so far west as to be in the cyclone areas of the Northeast Pacific like some of the other Micronesian islands further west of us. I don't really understand the various seasons there yet. In the Philippines, for example, there is never a time when it's not a cyclone season in some part of that huge island country. Two of the boats that arrived here recently came from the west of us in Micronesia. Both boats have families on board, but we don't see much of them nor so they take part in the morning cruiser's net on the radio. Apparently, they are Jehovah's Witnesses and they are missionary boats. We do see lots of different folks out here cruising.
Part of the reason why it is so noisy here is because we are moored directly off the docking areas for all the small shore boats. For the big tuna fleet, Uliga Dock is the place where the fishing officials have their offices and they have to go out to greet and inspect all the boats that come in. The pilot boat is there, too. Then once the tuna boats are cleared, they often anchor before they unload and they use their big net boats with 1200 HP air-cooled engines to ferry crew and provisions back and forth out to the boats. Then there are the dinghies from the yachts and the outboard fishing boats owned by the Marshallese. Sometimes it feels like over a hundred boats zip around us every day and if they get within about 100 feet of Learnativity, they set off the canine alarm system.
This alarm system is usually sleeping on the top of the coaming about 12 inches away from our ears when we are working in the cockpit where it is coolest. This is the most enthusiastic alarm system you have ever seen. The two of them are never happier than when some high-pitched outboard comes screaming into earshot. Sometimes Barney gets so excited he runs to the bow and just keeps running in circles barking in pure canine bliss. I don't know which is worse, the noise from the boats or the canine alarm system.
So, we are planning to leave this afternoon and make our way back out to Eneko, the lovely little island you can see on the chart above. It's quiet and the canine security system goes silent, too, barking only when somebody says the word "beach." Eneko is on the north side where the little hump is and in this view it shows 66.4 and 181 foot depths offshore. The local yacht club put down moorings off the island so we swing between 45 and 100 feet there depending on the wind direction. As you can see from the soundings, most of the lagoon is too deep for yachts like us to anchor. It's not a problem for the tuna boats or Google, though. On the chart you can also see the well-marked pass into this atoll. That's another thing that makes this place such a draw for boats of all kinds. It's easy to enter, provides shelter and there is a lively town ashore with supermarkets, restaurants and hardware stores.
At Eneko, they do have a hot spot for the local Internet, but what they don't have is power. For a while their generator had broken down. That was what prevented me from posting a blog last week. However, we've learned they have bought a solar panel and Wayne has volunteered to donate an old solar controller as well as his labor to mount and connect the panel. If we can get Internet at Eneko all the time, we might not come back to town until the fridge or the wine locker is empty, whichever comes first. We'll revel in the peace and quiet and hopefully, my writing output will improve.
Just so long as nobody says the word "beach."
Fair winds!

Burns reduce hazardous fuels and improve ecosystem health
Quincy, CA. - Plumas National Forest officials have started to conduct a number of prescribed burns this fall to reduce hazardous fuels and improve ecosystem health. "To the extent economically feasible, we've removed all merchantable materials prior to burning," said Earl Ford, Forest Supervisor. Planned projects include burning piled materials, low to moderate intensity understory vegetation burns on the forest floor, and moderate to high intensity broadcast burning of brush. The goals of these projects are to reduce the severity of future wildfires and provide added protection for communities in the wildland urban interface, to promote more diverse and resilient ecosystems, and improve habitat for wildlife.
