Jose here. Earlier this year I reported back from the Kit Kat Club to share my impressions about Michelle Williams' performance as Sally Bowles in the Roundabout Theatre production of Cabaret. Last night I went back to see what Emma Stone (Spirit-Nominated this morning) brought to the part...
Halfway through the first act of Cabaret, Sally Bowles realizes that life with her naive, new lover Cliff (Bill Heck) might be exactly what she needs. She sits with Cliff on a chaise lounge and for a moment she sees herself living the life of a wife and mother, satisfied with keeping home and raising her child. Suddenly, the Emcee interrupts this precious moment by bringing a microphone, its allure too powerful for Sally to resist, and drawn towards it as if under a spell, she performs "Maybe This Time".
Onstage, the heartbreaking irony of this moment (Sally selling her soul to showbiz, »

Birdman, 2014.
Directed by Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu.
Starring: Michael Keaton, Emma Stone, Edward Norton, Zach Galifianakis and Naomi Watts.
Riggan Thomas (Michael Keaton) attempts to distance himself from his famous role as the superhero, Birdman by staging a Broadway play adaptation of Raymond Carver's 'What We Talk About When We Talk About Love'. In the days leading to the premier, Riggan must overcome his ego and family troubles to ensure he can once again hit the big time.
There's a scene in Birdman where Michael Keaton's character, Riggan Thomas, confronts the theatre critic who threatens to shut down his play with a single review, without even seeing it. It's one of the films best scenes – in a film where it's difficult to choose just one – as Keaton describes her writing as full of labels and adjectives, with nothing about technique, structure or execution, reducing his »

At one time, Monster director Patty Jenkins was lined up to direct Thor: The Dark World for Marvel Studios, but some trouble behind the scenes saw her exit the project and the job ended up going to Alan Taylor. Sadly, that means the director hasn't found another big project since her breakthrough with the film famous for Charlize Theron's serial killer transformation. But she just might have another chance at becoming a household name as THR reports Jenkins will direct Jackpot, a remake of a Norwegian action comedy directed by Magnus Martens from 2011, an adaptation of a crime story by Jo Nesbo (Headhunters). After winning a huge sum of money in a betting pool, four coworkers begin to double-cross each other over the prize money, and things turn lethal pretty quickly. The script comes from The Expendables and Godzilla scribe David Callaham with Easy A director Will Gluck acting »

It appears that Monster director Patty Jenkins is now close to making her second feature film in over a decade. The talented filmmaker was previously attached to helm Thor: The Dark World but subsequently dropped out over creative differences with Marvel. Her other credits include directing the pilot for AMC's The Killing as well as episodes of Entourage and Arrested Development, but now THR reports that she's turning her attention to the action-comedy genre with a remake of the 2011 Norwegian film Jackpot. Based on a story by crime author Jo Nesbo (Headhunters and The Snowman), the film revolves around four men who win big in a sports pool, only to resort to lethal measures when dividing the winnings proves difficult. The Expendables and Doom scribe David Callaham penned the screenplay, and Will Gluck (Easy A) is producing. It's been too long since Jenkins brought her talents to the feature film world, »

Amanda Bynes' tattoo wish list includes a neck tattoo, but unfortunately after she failed to produce identification, she was denied the new ink recently. The 28-year-old troubled actress, who was recently released from a psychiatric hospital for the second time, almost had a name tattooed on her neck before it was revealed that she didn't have any ID on her and the plan was cancelled. According to the gossip website TMZ.com, Amanda arrived at The Honorable Society tattoo parlor in West Hollywood, California on Tuesday (11.11.14) where she asked to have the name of her rumoured fiance Caleb Pusey permanently etched into her skin. After denying the 'Easy A' actress the ink, an employee of the tattoo parlor told TMZ.com that even if she had identificaton, Amanda - who claimed to be bipolar and a manic depressive on Twitter last week (04.11.14) - would have been expected »

Earlier this week, TMZ posted a pic of Amanda sleeping on a couch at the Beverly Center shopping mall in Los Angeles."I was not given money for a hotel so I have been staying with friends and I didn't get enough sleep last night so I fell asleep on a couch @ the Beverly center and a paparazzi snuck in and took pictures of me, »

If you've been reading my writing on this site or heard me on the podcast, you know I am a big fan of musicals. However, a musical is a form like any other. It has its highs and its lows. People like to think if I like the form, I like everything within it. Not the case. It would be like saying I like every movie. It is probably the same 30% good/70% bad ratio for any artistic medium. One of the most popular musicals of all time falls in the 70% bad range for me, which is Annie. The musical has already had a film adaptation directed by John Huston and a TV movie adaptation by Rob Marshall. So, instead of trying their hand at something new (such as trying one of the shows on my top ten musicals that should be made into movies), we will be getting yet another version of this story. »

"Please, take care of our baby. Her name's Annie." That's right, the remake of the classic musical Annie is still a movie that's coming out this winter, in case you forgot with all the excitement for Interstellar hitting theaters this week. Honestly, if you're not already sold on this flick, then you're probably not going to see anything new in the latest trailer to convince you to see it. While it doesn't look terrible, this movie looks painfully sweet, like Jamie Foxx and Quvenzhané Wallis will give you cavities. And since it's a musical, we know it's not going to be as short as most family films. But will it be worth your time? See for yourself. Here's the last trailer for Will Gluck's remake of Annie direct from YouTube: Watch the most recent trailer for Annie from the United Kingdom right here. Annie is directed by Will Gluck »

The sun'll come out tomorrow, right? It's been interesting to watch Will Gluck's career progress. After years in TV, the writer/director/producer jumped into feature films, making his name on irreverent comedies often in the teen genre, including "Fired Up," "Easy A" and "Friends With Benefits." The success of those films have led to the development of a dozen big projects too, including "Stealing The Moon" with "The Social Network" and "Moneyball" producers Scott Rudin, Dan Brunetti and Mike DeLuca. But for his next trick, Gluck flipped the script and instead tried his hand at a big-budget, family-friendly musical remake of "Annie." Starring Jamie Foxx, Quvenzhané Wallis, Rose Byrne, Bobby Cannavale, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, David Zayas, and Cameron Diaz, "Annie" is a modern retelling of the Broadway classic, executive produced by Will Smith and Jay-z among others. Here's the official synopsis: A Broadway classic that has delighted audiences for generations. »

A new trailer for Annie has been released.
Written and directed by Will Gluck (Easy A), the new adaptation of the Broadway musical stars Quvenzhané Wallis as plucky foster child Annie, and Jamie Foxx as the hardened tycoon who takes her in.
Having been raised in a foster home by the formidable Miss Hannigan (Cameron Diaz), Annie is adopted by Foxx's Will Stacks in a calculated PR move for his New York mayoral campaign, and gradually forms a genuine bond with him.
Rose Byrne and Bobby Cannavale play Stacks' VP and campaign advisor respectively.
The film will feature the play's original songs as well as music by Jay Z.
Annie will be released on December 19 in the Us and December 20 in the UK. »

Amanda Bynes will remain under a conservatorship and a judge dismissed a lawyer she hired for the hearing. A lawyer claiming to represent the 28-year-old actress, who was released from a psychiatric treatment facility in Pasadena, California on Thursday after being involuntarily committed on October 10, asked a judge to remove Lynn Bynes' ability to make decisions on the troubled star's behalf on Friday. But the judge ruled the 'Easy A' star lacked the capacity to enter into a binding contract or hire a lawyer, so he refused to allow the hearing to go ahead. He also ruled that Amanda will remain under her mother's care via the conservatorship, according to gossip website TMZ.com. Despite claiming on Twitter on Friday morning that she planned to fight to regain control of her life, Amanda did not show up to court, but was spotted having lunch in Mel's Drive-In in Hollywood shortly beforehand. »

Amanda Bynes' parents are back in control of their troubled daughter's estate.
After her recent DUI arrest and sudden trip to New York City, Amanda Bynes' parents are back in control of their troubled daughter's estate.
Et confirms that Lynn and Richard Bynes were granted a temporary conservatorship of the Easy A actress' finances on Wednesday, and TMZ reports that the parents called out several expensive gifts their daughter gave to strangers as a reason for the conservatoriship.
If this all sounds too familiar, it could be because in 2013 Bynes' mother was given control of her daughter's finances of her daughter while she was undergoing treatment for mental health issues. That conservatorship ended in September.

The new decision by the courts comes a day after Bynes' mandatory psychiatric hold at a Pasadena facility was extended to 30 days. The doctors explained on Tuesday that the actress was still "very ill," and »

Back in 2001, we talked to the rising young star on the set of Nickelodeon's 'The Amanda Show.' What went wrong?
It's hard to believe but October 16 marks 15 years since The Amanda Show -- starring a then-13-year-old Amanda Bynes -- first premiered on Nickelodeon.
Airing from 1999 to 2002, the All That spin-off show turned Bynes, now 28, into a star.
But clearly, it hasn't all been smooth sailing from there. In the last month, the troubled actress has made daily headlines with erratic behavior, explosive allegations and – on October 10 – a return to being held at a psychiatric treatment facility, potentially for up to a year.

The ''heartbroken'' mother of the troubled actress Amanda Bynes has released a statement following her daughter's comments on sexual abuse. Amanda Bynes shocked her Twitter followers last week after she tweeted several messages which alleged that her father, Rick Bynes had sexually abused her growing up. Although she later deleted the messages and posted an apology, the 'Easy A' actress was then reportedly placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold for 72 hours, according to TMZ. Now her mother, Lynn Bynes has released a statement to E! News via her attorney, Tamar Arminak regarding the situation. It stated: ''I am heartbroken today for my husband of 47 years. Rick has been the best father and husband a family can ask for. He has never abused Amanda or our other children physically or sexually. ''These accusations are absolutely horrible and could not be further from the truth! These allegations stem from Amanda's mental »

The highly anticipated film Birdman hits cinemas this week, with Emma Stone getting a lot of buzz for her performance. In honor of the role, we're taking a look at the actress' crazy face. Not crazy in the way that it looks — Emma is one foxy lady — but crazy because it seems to be made entirely of rubber. Seriously, some of her facial contortions give even the likes of Jim Carrey a run for their money.
Admittedly, many of her best looks come from Easy A (the Lobster Shack scene, people!), but she's got a long history of absolutely Going There when it comes to twisting her face for dramatic or comedic effect. From The House Bunny to Crazy, Stupid, Love, Emma's roles are only as good as the faces she makes while playing them. Kim Kardashian may have perfected Duck Face, but only »

Luke Bryan's shooting stardom has him set to play Heinz Field
During the past seven years, Luke Bryan has risen from a one-hit performer at Saddle Ridge for a crowd of a few hundred to headlining a show for more than 50,000 on June 21 at Heinz Field — a feat that only Kenny Chesney and Taylor Swift have pulled off among country singers visiting Pittsburgh.
Bryan's rise to superstardom and Heinz Field status didn't happen gradually in equal steps, country industry observers say. Bryan had a few hits during the first few years of his career, but his fame really boomed in the past two years, starting with his opening for Jason Aldean in 2012.
Almost overnight, Bryan became one of the top-selling country artists and began headlining big shows last year. And Heinz Field is bigger than big: Most larger concerts in the Pittsburgh area are at Burgettstown's First Niagara Pavilion, which has a maximum capacity of about 23,000 fans.
"The fact that he's graduated up to stadiums at that level just shows how big a star he's become," says Michael McCall, an editor and writer for publications at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville.
"There's a momentum you get when you get several big songs," McCall says. "You put on a show that has people standing on their feet, singing along, clapping and dancing."
Jeremy Mulder, a disc jockey with the regional Froggy country radio stations, recalls Bryan's Saddle Ridge show at Station Square. Bryan, a newcomer at the time, had one hit — his debut single, "All My Friends Say," which reached No. 5 on the Billboard country chart.
Mulder and McCall acknowledge that Bryan's big boom that made him a major-concert headliner came with his platinum third album, "Tailgates & Tanlines," and his signature song "Country Girl (Shake It For Me)."
That song is "such an anthem and country song," McCall says.
For the past few years, Mulder says, Bryan has produced "great song after great song."
Bryan has been working for this success for a long time, Mulder says, and enjoyed paying his dues rather than seeking instant fame.
Contributing to Bryan's fame and success surely are his looks, which earned him People Country's Sexiest Man 2014 designation. At least, that's part of his appeal to many female fans, along with his musical talents, says Mulder, whose on-air moniker is Danger Frog. "Lets face it: He started wearing his jeans tighter," Mulder says.
McCall says that despite Bryan's attractiveness, he comes across as down-to-earth and humble, with an "Aw, shucks" way about him.
"He has fun with it in a nonthreatening way," McCall says. "Luke doesn't have a bad-boy edge."

[[caption-width-right:350:[[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom We are Venom!]]]]
Venom is a ''Creator/MarvelComics'' character, and arguably one of the most famous of Franchise/SpiderMan's RoguesGallery, though over time his character and motivation have [[CharacterDevelopment evolved]]. To date there have been [[LegacyCharacter four different men and two women who have assumed the mantle of Venom]]. The Eddie Brock version of the character was playable in the video game adaptation to the ''Maximum Carnage'' story arc, then in ''Separation Anxiety'', and later, the first and second ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom'', making the leap from comic to video game. Mac Gargan was playable as Venom in the second ''VideoGame/MarvelUltimateAlliance'' game, with Eddie Brock's appearance as an alternate costume. Brock, as Anti-Venom, is an antagonist in ''VideoGame/SpiderManEdgeOfTime'', marking that version of the character's first appearance in a video-game.
Venom's origin began with an alien symbiote that was used to build a new suit for Spider-Man, inspired design-wise by the second ComicBook/SpiderWoman (Julia Carpenter) during their team-up in ''ComicBook/SecretWars''. The costume change was initially unpopular with fans (although the black costume would later be brought back as fans began to like it a bit more) so it quickly went through a {{Retcon}} as an alien symbiote that wanted to bond with Peter Parker. Horrified, Spidey managed to repel the symbiote by taking advantage of its weakness to sonic noises via church bells. Some writers and editors did not like Peter's motivation at the time so there was a second RetCon that the suit [[ClothesMakeTheSuperman was more powerful]] than his ordinary suit, but was slowly driving him insane with rage.
The creature ultimately [[ComicbookDeath survived]], going on to bond to a series of hosts (many that bore grudges against Spider-Man), developing from a lonely alien creature to a [[IAmAHumanitarian bloodthirsty]] monstrosity, and remains one of Spider-Man's deadliest foes, despite of and due to the lingering [[{{Yandere}} desire it still possesses for him]]. Its popularity among creators and fans has made it among the most memorable of Spider-Man's Rogues Gallery. Currently it is bonded to long-time Spider-Man supporting character Flash Thompson, and as such featured in ''Venom'' Volume 2 and ''Comicbook/{{Thunderbolts}}'' Volume 2. After ''Venom'' Vol. 2 was cancelled, Flash appeared in the "Darkest Hours" ''Comicbook/SuperiorSpiderMan'' story arc, and worked with ScarletSpider to save the Microverse from ComicBook/{{Carnage}}. Agent Venom then went on to join the ''Comicbook/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy''; while it was initially hinted that Flash might not be the one wearing the symbiote, this was ultimately proven not to be the case.
The symbiote remaining bonded to Spider-Man or bonding to a character other than Eddie Brock has been the focus of numerous {{What If}}s, and alternate versions of the character are present in alternate universes, most prominently in UltimateMarvel and Franchise/{{Marvel 2099}}.
Venom has so far had three entries into ''VideoGame/MarvelAvengersAlliance'' - Mac Gargan Venom appears as a boss, Flash Thompson as Agent Venom was added as a playable character in December 2013 (though Mac Gargan is still Venom as well, according to Spec Ops 18, where the two Venoms meet face to face), and Eddie Brock as Anti-Venom was added as a playable character in May 2014.
In animated adaptations of ''Spider-Man'' featuring the character, the Eddie Brock version of Venom has been the sole version to appear until ''WesternAnimation/UltimateSpiderMan'', in which an adaptation of the UltimateMarvel version of Venom appeared with ''Harry Osborn'' of all people as its host. In season 3, Flash Thompson takes up the mantle as Agent Venom and becomes an Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Eddie Brock appeared in ''Film/SpiderMan3'', acquiring the symbiote late in the film before being killed. Sony has announced that Venom will be getting a spinoff film set, tentatively titled ''Venom: Carnage'', in ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderManSeries''. No word yet on who will be wearing the suit or, judging by the Oscorp MetaOrigin running throughout the series, whether Peter will even wear the suit this time, although Eddie Brock has been introduced in promotional material.
For tropes related to the symbiote itself, individual hosts, and characters from the series, there is a [[Characters/{{Venom}} Character Sheet here]].

!!Tropes pertaining to the ''Venom'' comics:
* AbortedArc:
** The Venom symbiote being influenced to destroy humanity by assimilating its clone was discarded.
** Cullen Bunn had several plans for the ''Venom'' series that were kyboshed by Marvel cancelling it, such as wrapping up the Descent and Spawning subplots cryptically alluded to throughout Vol. 2.
* AlternateSelf: Every incarnation of Venom has had several, due to the character's popularity. Here are only a small handful:
** ''100th Anniversary Special - Spider-Man:'' Eddie is murdered by ComicBook/TheKingpin, who becomes a giant {{technopath}}ic Venom.
** ''All-Access:'' The DC and Marvel Universes beginning to bleed together causes Venom to appear in Metropolis, where he beats up Franchise/{{Superman}} and Spider-Man before being subdued by [[OriginalGeneration Access]].
---> '''Spider-Man:''' Believe me, even without the costume, the guy was no picnic. He was a newspaper reporter, and you know what they can... be... like. What's that look for?
---> '''Superman:''' No reason.
** ''All-New Savage ComicBook/SheHulk'': The symbiote is still alive thousands of years into the future, where it has grown to gigantic size, and is known as "the Black Bloom".
** '''''[[ComicBook/AgeOfApocalypse An]]''''' ''ComicBook/AgeOfApocalypse'': Apocalypse has an army of clones based on the symbiote-infected Peter.
** ''Backlash[=/=]Spider-Man'': Venom and Pike are the main villains in this crossover with Creator/{{Wildstorm}}.
** ''ComicBook/EarthX'': The symbiote is a metaphysical entity whose appearance and abilities are derived from the belief that it is a super-powered alien costume, and it is bonded to Peter's daughter May Parker.
** ''ComicBook/{{Exiles}}:'' Cameo'd as a member of a different Exiles group that also included [[Characters/XMenVillains Mojo]], ComicBook/{{MODOK}}, SelfDemonstrating/{{Deadpool}}, [[Characters/XMenVillains Selene]], and the Lizard.
---> '''ComicBook/BlackPanther:''' Whoa! Now we are definitely a better looking team of Exiles than them.
** ''ComicBook/HouseOfM'': Venom is seemingly just an entirely fictional villain in a film based on Spider-Man.
** ''Marvel vs. DC:'' Venom makes a single panel cameo confronting Franchise/{{Batman}}.
** ''ComicBook/MarvelAdventures:'' The symbiote is a defective invention of the [[GadgeteerGenius Tinkerer]] which bonds to burglar Eddie Brock.
** ''MarvelComics2:'' Eddie had died at an unspecified point, and the symbiote was captured by Comicbook/{{SHIELD}}. After escaping custody, the symbiote tracks down and possesses the retired Peter, creating "[[http://www.4thletter.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/spidervenom.jpg Spider-Venom]]". Peter is freed by the combined efforts of ComicBook/SpiderGirl (his daughter, Mayday) and Phil Ulrich, and the symbiote falls into the hands of the Goblin Queen, who sics it on Normie Osborne in a plot to convert him to her side. After an intense struggle, Normie overpowers and gradually rehabilitates the symbiote, which goes on to [[RedemptionEqualsDeath sacrifice]] itself in an attempt to stop the Hobgoblin.
** ''MarvelFairyTales:''
*** In ''[[FeudalJapan Spider-Man: Fairy Tales #3]]'' Venom is a [[{{Yokai}} Tsuchigumo]] responsible for the deaths of Izumi's parents and uncle. In an attempt to corrupt Izumi, it bit him, giving him an arachnid-based appearance, and the customary spider powers.
*** A knight version of Venom cameos in the ''[[ChivalricRomance Spider-Man Fairy Tales #4]]'', and Peter dons an armor version of the symbiote.
** ''Main/MarvelMangaverse:'' Venom is Peter's cousin, an exiled member of the Spider Clan, and the one who killed Peter's Uncle Ben, wearing a uniform similar in appearance to Symbiote Spider-Man. The symbiote itself appears as a cursed amulet that takes over Peter, turning his costume black and making him more aggressive, but Venom sacrifices himself to free Peter from its influence and redeem himself. He later [[UnexplainedRecovery reappears]] in a more monstrous form and becomes Peter's sensei.
** ''ComicBook/MarvelZombies:'' Eddie is a zombie, and the symbiote (one of the few entities immune to the plague) is dying due to a lack of viable hosts.
** ''ComicBook/MiniMarvels:'' The symbiote is living newspaper ink that, after being forced off of Spidey, bonded to fellow paperboy Eddie Brock, often manifesting as an annoying second head that wants to eat everyone's brains. A [[http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3NbEuEB-o9Y/SS4I9f2IssI/AAAAAAAAA1c/74C2MpHOCuk/s1600/mini+marvel+3 fierce]] rivalry ensues.
** ''OldManLogan:'' The symbiote is stalking Wolverine and Hawkeye, and eventually attacks them after possessing a T-rex.
** ''Spider-Ham:'' Pork Grind, a [[FullBoarAction boar]] who is TheAhnold.
** ''Spider-Man India:'' [[ComicBook/NormanOsborn Nalin Oberoi]]'s attempt to corrupt Pavitr Prabhakar with an evil amulet causes Prabhakar to briefly look like Venom. Pavitr destroys the amulet, but the evil reforms as a BlobMonster elsewhere.
** ''Spider-Man[=/=]ComicBook/RedSonja:'' Venom is manipulated into going after Spider-Man and Red Sonja by Kulan Gath, who later takes the symbiote from Eddie, and forcibly bonds with it to become "Kulan Venom".
---> '''Venom:''' Man-Spider and the Red [[SssssnakeTalk Ssssonjaa]]!!! My master calls for thy blood!
---> '''Spider-Man:''' Venom?! And he's talking all [[Creator/JRRTolkien Tolkieny]]?
** ''[[Comicbook/SpiderManReign Reign]]:'' Posing as "Edward Saks", Venom takes over New York City following Spider-Man's retirement and sets up a number of provisions in preparation for his eventual return: re-enlisting the "Sinner Six", replicating his symbiote thousands of times, and building a security system called "WEBB" that prevents New York citizens from escaping from the city.
** ''Rune vs. Venom:'' A symbiote that survived ''Planet of the Symbiotes'' thanks to possessing Malibu Comics character Rune tries to instigate another invasion, and avenge the failure of the first one by killing "race traitor" Venom.
** ''UltimateMarvel:'' The "Venom Suit" is a bio-engineered protoplasmic entity created as a cancer cure. Unfortunately, this "symbiote" is unfinished and genetically tailored to the Parker family's [=DNA=], so it starts devouring any other host that tries to wear it (like Ultimate Eddie Brock) forcing them to consume the biomass of other beings to survive.
** Concept art for ''Spider-Verse'' shows [[SteamPunk Lady Spider]]'s universe has a [[http://th04.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/f/2012/193/e/4/venom_steampunk_re_design_by_denism79-d56ydkz.jpg Venom reminiscent of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde]], with Eddie Brock being working class man and Venom dressed in dapper suit, top hat, and greatcoat. He doesn't appear in the comic, though.
** ''WhatIf:'' Too many to list, but some prominent ones are:
*** ''What If... Venom Had Possessed the Punisher'': Frank Castle reaches the church shortly before Eddie Brock does and bonds with the symbiote, eventually subjugating it and going on to become more lethal than ever.
*** ''What If the Alien Costume Had Possessed Spider-Man?'': The symbiote remains bonded to Peter Parker, aging him at an accelerated rate until he dies. The symbiote bonds to the Hulk, explaining that it didn't want to kill Peter and is curing Bruce Banner to redeem itself, but Thor attacks Venom-Hulk and winds up bonded to it himself. Black Bolt removes the symbiote, but before it can be imprisoned Black Cat kills it to avenge Peter Parker's death.
*** ''What If? Brave New World'': When the Secret War participants are trapped on Battleworld, the symbiote bonds mind and body to Peter Parker, leaving him a skeleton with the symbiote's biomass forming their body.
*** ''What If? Spider-Man: The Other'': Following his "death" at the hands of Morlun, Peter rejects embracing the Other and severs his connection to the Great Weaver, leaving his metamorphosis incomplete. The Venom symbiote senses this and abandons Mac Gargan to rejoin with its first host and finish his transformation, creating a new being called Poison.
*** ''What if the Venom Symbiote Possessed Deadpool?'': Deadpool bonds with the Venom symbiote after killing Spider-Man, becoming Venompool. After numerous shenanigans, Venompool destroyed his home universe with the Recton Expungifier, but was later shown as a member of Dreadpool's Evil Deadpool Corps, being killed in ''Deadpool Kills Deadpool Vol. 1 #4''.
* AlwaysChaoticEvil[=/=]HordeOfAlienLocusts: The symbiotes, DependingOnTheWriter, are always evil and make their hosts go crazy or they feed off negative emotions, but in either case, they are not nice. The Venom symbiote and its progeny are apparently the only ones who care for their hosts. Of course, even then, the Venom symbiote is often depicted as the insanely jealous type.
* AnimalWrongsGroup: The reason Eddie and Mac [[TooDumbToLive got to keep the symbiote while in jail]]? PETA threw a fit about it being an endangered species.
* AngelFaceDemonFace: The way Venom looks ties closely with the relative morality of the symbiote's host. On the heroic side, Peter's suit looks more or less like his usual costume but in black; heroic soldier Flash Thompson wears what looks like body armor (unless he loses his temper); and in the ''Comicbook/SpiderGirl'' series, Normie Osborn had what looked like the usual suit but with his face visible underneath and no fangs. On the evil side of things, Eddie Brock's costume has MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily and a lolling tongue; and when the eviler Mac Gargan wears the symbiote it looks even more freaky and bestial than Brock's usual version (unless he uses a PowerLimiter).
* AntiVillain[=/=]AntiHero: Depending on the host: Peter Parker is a straight-up hero, Eddie Brock is a SociopathicHero at best, Angelo Fortunato was a DirtyCoward, Mac Gargan was an AxCrazy VillainWithGoodPublicity, Flash is a straight-up [[TheHero hero]], or at least [[SuperpoweredEvilSide he tries to be]], and the Superior Spider-Man is an UnscrupulousHero turned NominalHero.
* BadFuture: Flash has a vision of what would happen if he was chosen in the Descent or the demon took over him. The vision shows Philadelphia [[PlanetHeck in the same state Vegas was in during the Circle of Four]] with Devil-Venom perched on a decapitated statue.
* BreakoutVillain: Venom was introduced as a Spider-Man villain in the late 1980's, and due to the character's runaway popularity in the 1990's he was given his own series.
* CanonDiscontinuity: ''Dark Origin'', which {{retcon}}ned Eddie's backstory to bring him more in line with [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk his portrayal]] in ''Spider-Man 3'', has been disregarded by stories featuring him.
* CloningBlues: In the 2003 ''Shiver'' arc a clone of the symbiote is created [[Film/TheThing1982 in a remote Arctic base, breaks loose, and starts killing the soldiers and scientists one by one]]. It bonds to the last surviving soldier, Patricia Robertson, but is later eaten by the original Venom [[spoiler: and ''much'' later on regurgitated and bonded to Andi, turning her into Mania]].
** During the ''Minimum Carnage'' arc, Marquis Radu creates clones of the Venom and Carnage symbiotes in the body banks and [[FusionDance fuses them together]]. Carnage cheerfully dubs the union incestuous and seizes control of the clones to kill Venom.
** Kristoff von Doom made an army of clones, stuck them in a bomb, and dropped it on New York.
* ClothesMakeTheManiac: It [[RetCanon eventually became canon]] that the symbiote will drive its host into becoming a monster driven by their own rage and hate.
* DenserAndWackier: Almost all of the stories written by Creator/LarryHama, which featured things like a cyberspace showdown between Venom and Carnage, Venom being assigned to take out the nefarious [[Film/DrNo Doctor Yes]], and Venom and Scream teaming up with a group of TotallyRadical skateboarders to kill a [[SophisticatedAsHell dapper]] symbiote-eating alien.
* TheDreaded: Symbiotes in general appear to be one of the Marvel Universe's alpha predators, conquering entire worlds. On Earth, Venom inspires at the very least anxiety among other villains due to its monstrous appearance and [[IAmAHumanitarian reputation for eating people]], and Carnage is powerful enough to take on the Avengers and win.
* FangsAreEvil: Most incarnations of Venom manifest a [[MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily huge mouth full of pointy teeth]], especially when the symbiote takes over its host. It didn't have fangs when it first bonded to Peter because Peter wasn't evil (neither was the symbiote before the retcon). Mac Gargan as the Sinister Spider-Man, Flash as Agent Venom, and [[ComicBook/SuperiorSpiderMan SpOck]] as Superior Venom also had smooth masks as long as they keep the symbiote under control, although they could form toothy jaws at will to either scare or eat opponents.
* TheGoodTheBadAndTheEvil: Most crossover storylines had Spider-Man as the Good, Venom as the Bad, and Carnage as the Evil.
* HealingFactor: Various stories have shown that the symbiotes can heal damage inflicted to their host. During his stint as Anti-Venom, Eddie Brock had his head [[BoomHeadshot blown apart]] by a gunshot from ComicBook/ThePunisher. He promptly reconstituted his head and attacked Frank Castle in a rage, only further fuelled by Castle's willingness to shoot through [[LivingEmotionalCrutch Jenna Cole]] to kill a drug dealer. Another example of this occurred when Flash Thompson was [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice almost disemboweled]] by Toxin, and was no worse for wear a couple of days later thanks to the Venom symbiote healing him. Cletus Kasady recovered from a lobotomy that left him in a comatose state as well as being torn in half by the Sentry thanks to his symbiote.
* HulkingOut: When the symbiote's host loses control, they tend to bulk up ''significantly''.
* IconicOutfit: The symbiote's most famous look is the one it sported when it was bonded to Eddie Brock, especially when drawn by Mark Bagley, who was the main ''SpiderMan'' artist during the 1990's. Even [[LegacyCharacter Mac Gargan and Flash Thompson]], who have their own unique designs as Venom, have been drawn with Eddie's "classic" Venom look {{depending on the artist}}.
* LegacyCharacter: Of a sort, as the symbiote has had four main hosts all claiming the title of "Venom".
* LetsYouAndHimFight: Most of the Venom comics in the 1990's had Eddie Brock fighting another antihero before having to team up with them.
* LostInImitation: The idea that the symbiote was turning Peter evil as part of its efforts to merge with him stems from the 1994 ''SpidermanTheAnimatedSeries'' cartoon, and was promptly adopted into the comics due to the fact that the initial depiction of the seperation kind of made Peter look like the bad guy.
* LovecraftianSuperpower: In their current iterations, the symbiotes may as well be parasitic shoggoths.
* MonstrousHumanoid: The symbiotes transform their hosts' bodies, giving them huge mouths lined with fangs, claws on their fingers (and occasionally toes), and the ability to project pseudopods and transform their limbs into simple weaponry.
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: The trope namer. A hallmark of Venom is his enormous mouth lined with oodles of ([[FangsAreEvil usually pointy]]) teeth.
* MusclesAreMeaningful: The symbiote significantly bulks its host up, although Flash's default form is more HeroicBuild. In an early appearance Brock mentions that the suit amplifies his own strength, so if the host gets stronger, Venom becomes exponentially stronger. This is more evident with Mac Gargan, whose strength was amplified from 15 tons to 60 tons by the symbiote.
* MythologyGag: The bewildered self-examinatory pose Spider-Man is striking on the cover of ''Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars'' Vol 1 #8, [[note]]Which shows how he got the symbiote.[[/note]] has been used at least three other times: once by Mac Gargan after becoming the Sinister Spider-Man, once as a parody on a cover of ''Marvel Zombies'', and once by [[PhysicalGod Ai Apaec]] when NormanOsborn turned him into a six-armed Black Suit Spider-Man [[HumanoidAbomination lookalike]].
* NinetiesAntiHero: Although most incarnations of the character are villains, Venom had his phases in this time, notably pulling a few {{Enemy Mine}}s with Spidey.
* OneWingedAngel: Since Venom's first solo mini, most incarnations have been known to pull one of these off at times when they really [[HulkingOut lose control]].
* PlanetOfCopyhats: All of the symbiotes on the cover of ''Guardians of the Galaxy'' Vol. 3 #21 are black with white spider-emblems.
* {{Retcon}}
** The symbiote was changed from being a snazzy new costume to an alien parasite due to its unpopularity, and when Spider-Man's rejection of it because it was alive made him seem like too much of an asshole that was retconned into the suit slowly turning him evil. In the mid-1990's it was given an addiction to phenethylamine, which in the 2000's was changed to an addiction to adrenaline, but was forgotten about after Eddie separated from the symbiote. Nowadays the symbiotes seem to have a hankering for flesh in general.
** Eddie himself was given terminal adrenal cancer, changing both the explanation for why he wanted to kill himself and why the symbiote bonded to him. In ''Lethal Protector'' Eddie was given a fairly sympathetic backstory, but ''Dark Origin'' turned him into a pathological liar who deserved his humiliation and comeuppance. The only details kept the same was Eddie's father blaming him for his mother's death, him being a journalist and Ann Weying a lawyer, and the symbiote bonding to him in a church, to the point where [[http://4thletter.net/2008/09/venoms-shiny-new-origin-if-it-aint-broke-dont-fix-it/ a critical reviewer]] wondered if the writer and artist had done nothing more than consult Venom's [[TheOtherWiki Wikipedia]] page for research due to the sheer number of {{Series Continuity Error}}s present in it.
** Emil Gregg, the man who told Eddie he was the Sin-Eater, was shot to death in ''Sinner Takes All'', but revealed to have survived (only to later die in a shantytown) in ''Axis: Carnage'' #2.
* RoyalWe: Eddie Brock tended to refer to himself in first person plural pronouns while bonded with the symbiote, and on those occasions where he referred to himself in the singular, he would call the symbiote "My Other". However, subsequent hosts have tended to avert this.
* ShoutOut:
** When Flash starts losing his temper with a drunk Kree, the symbiote manifests ridges and dorsal tubes that make it look a bit like a [[Franchise/{{Alien}} Xenomorph]].
* {{Synchronization}}: Even if physically separated from their respective symbiotes, Eddie and Cletus maintain a mental connection to them, feeling their emotions and injuries, seeing what they do, etc. This no longer appears to be the case with Eddie and the Venom symbiote.
* TeleportersAndTransporters: The symbiotes have spaceships, but their primary means of invading other worlds is with [[Franchise/StargateVerse Stargate]]-like portals. The first wave in ''Planet of the Symbiotes'' built one, and the possessed Rune constructed another in ''Rune vs. Venom''.
* TooDumbToLive: Some Skrulls take the symbiote away from Flash and try keeping it for themselves. The symbiote, which has a taste for Skrull flesh, immediately ditches them for Flash and presumably noms on them.
* WholePlotReference: ''License to Kill'' was an homage to the James Bond franchise, the first 1/3 of the Daniel Way series is clearly based on ''[[Film/TheThing1982 The Thing]]'', and the ''Seed of Darkness'' prequel was a throwback to the "Marvel Monsters" epics of the 1950s, with Eddie as TheEveryman protagonist.

Goldberg himself has been cast for the show, and he intends to do a tribute to the Ultimate Warrior on there. The former WCW champion even contacted Vince McMahon and Stephanie McMahon to get approval.
April 19, 2014
A video tribute to the Ultimate Warrior, whose death last week rocked the wrestling world, that WWE aired on Monday Night Raw this week.
April 16, 2014
Since there was still a buzz surrounding the professional wrestling industry, many had expected viewership for Monday Night Raw to increase this week because the company was doing a tribute to the Ultimate Warrior, who died last week. WWE was disappointed to learn that fewer people tuned in this week than for the episode after Wrestlemania 30.
April 16, 2014
While there were talks about building a stable around Dolph Ziggler and Miz, two performers who have not been pushed as much as they used to be lately, those discussions have grown a bit dormant as of late. WWE has been focused on bringing up the developmental wrestlers from WWE NXT, and they have been occupied with the tribute show for Ultimate Warrior.

A picture of AJ Lee wearing a costume that is supposed to be a homage to Roddy Piper. This was part of a special photo shoot by WWE to honor the legendary performers by having the divas doing a tribute to them.
April 14, 2014
A video tribute for the Undertaker using his action figure. WWE features his character destroying the likes of Eddie Guerrero, Kane, Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, John Cena and others.
April 14, 2014
Those that know Curt Hawkins know that he is a big fan of the Ultimate Warrior, so when news surfaced about the death of the legendary WWE star, Hawkins was obviously affected deeply. As a bit of a tribute, Hawkins had some students at his new wrestling school in New Jersey do a little in ring tribute to Warrior in this picture.
April 13, 2014
As expected, WWE is turning the next episode of Monday Night Raw into a three hour tribute to the Ultimate Warrior, who died earlier this week. Aside from showing clips of his greatest moments in WWE, several of the performers are going to be allowed to do their own tribute to the former world heavyweight champion. There are also rumors that former wrestlers are being called in for the event as well.
April 11, 2014
Since he was quite well known during his prime, the Ultimate Warrior has a special place in the heart of many people. Upon hearing about his death, millions of people were saddened. At various sporting events, including MLB and NHL games, the Ultimate Warrior theme song was played as a tribute to the fall WWE legend.
April 11, 2014
At Wrestlemania 30, Daniel Bryan wore a pair of furry boats for his matches against Triple H, Randy Orton and Batista that evening. He revealed through WWE.com that the boats were a tribute to Bruiser Brody, a performer from the 1980s that he greatly admires. Interestingly enough, Brody himself also sported a memorable beard in the ring.
April 9, 2014
Since the company is around the clock nowadays, WWE had a camera crew following the Ultimate Warrior around during the entire Wrestlemania 30 week, which included his long awaited induction into the WWE Hall of Fame. The belief is that management still wants to put together a special tribute to the week after his untimely death on Tuesday.
April 9, 2014
A picture of developmental diva Sasha Banks performing the 619, a move popularized by Rey Mysterio in WWE. The belief is that she is simply doing it as a tribute, as she certainly would not be allowed to perform the trademark spot on the main roster. Officials are high on Banks, but she is not yet ready to make the jump up from WWE NXT just yet.
March 26, 2014
In a rather interesting bit of news, WWE did a live event in Long Island this weekend, and they purposely opted not to use Zack Ryder, the hometown hero. In what could be a show of defiance towards management, Dolph Ziggler did an in ring tribute to Zack Ryder during his match by doing a couple of his Ryder's signature moves.
March 24, 2014
As some of you already know, former WWE and TNA star Luke Gallows recently got married. CM Punk, AJ Lee, Zack Ryder, Curt Hawkins, Mike Knox, Bully Ray, Angelina Love, Samoa Joe, Mickie James, Matt Hardy, Reby Sky, Velvet Sky and Colt Cabana were among those in attendance at the wedding.

May 14, 2014
A picture of the Menagerie, a stable created by TNA to give Mike Knox a push upon his return to Impact Wrestling.
May 8, 2014
In order to bring a new infusion of blood to their talent roster, TNA has signed Crazy Steve, a professional wrestler who made a name for himself on the independent wrestling circuit in Canada. He will be a member of the new Menagerie stable with Mike Knox, Rebel and Rob Terry, who will be working underneath a mask for this role.
May 2, 2014
Rumors have been floating around for the last couple of months that Rob Terry was going to be brought back to TNA after gaining experience in OVW and Japan, where he worked with the Great Muta in Wrestle-1. Now, the news is official. Terry will be working underneath a mask as a member of the stable featuring Mike Knox and Rebel.
May 2, 2014
Since TNA wants to see him doing well, management has decided to give Mike Knox a stable to lead when he makes his official return to the company. Vignettes have been aired on the past couple episodes of Impact Wrestling to tease the return. Knox will be leading a stable consisting of his sister Rebel, Crazzy Steve and a guy named the Freak.
April 29, 2014
A video from Impact Wrestling that teases the imminent return of Mike Knox, who looks to be bringing a lovely new Knockout with him, to TNA.
April 26, 2014
Now that it has been revealed on Impact Wrestling that Mike Knox will be making his return to television soon, rumors have surfaced that Taz is actually one of the people backstage who has been pushing TNA to keep the performer around. Throughout the last year, Taz and Bully Ray have seen their backstage powers increase within the company.
March 23, 2014
Since the end of the Aces and Eights story line, a lot of fans have been wondering about the status of the supporting cast and whether they would still remain with the company, but those that watched Impact Wrestling tonight, they now know that Mike Knox is returning to TNA television. A segment was aired, where he explains his absence over the last several weeks.
March 20, 2014
While he was expected to be a casualty of the cost cutting movement within the company, it appears that Mike Knox is still under contract to TNA. He has not been used on Impact Wrestling in quite some time now, and he also has not been booked for the various live events every weekend either. Knox is still on the official roster page as well.
February 24, 2014
Mike Knox could be the next person headed out the door in TNA. While the company likes him, they simply do not have anything planned for him since the split of Aces and Eights. There is a possibility of him being brought back into the fold at a later time.
January 16, 2014
Back when both of them were working for UPW in 2000, Mike Knox and Samoa Joe were tag team partners.

Logging "FINEST" messages using java Logger

I just discovered and am currently trying out the Logger class (after deciding my homemade logger class wasn't quite cutting it anymore). But I seem to be having issues logger the FINE, FINER, and FINEST level log messages. Basically, everytime I attempt to log a message using the Logger.fine() Logger.finer(), and Logger.finest() messages, they don't reach the logger's Handlers.
I've tried setting the log level to Level.FINEST and Level.ALL. But neither seem to work.
I've also looked at Sun's implementation of the Logger.finest method, and there doesn't seem to be anything fancy there:
public void finest(String msg) { if (Level.FINEST.intValue() < levelValue) { return; } log(Level.FINEST, msg); }
class looks like the following:
public static void msg(String m) { System.out.println(m); } public static void nl() { System.out.println("\n"); } public static void main(String[] args) { String tstmsg = "Test Message"; msg("Retrieving a logger"); Logger tstLggr = Logger.getLogger("com.bgi.tmp.LogTest"); Logger prntLggr = tstLggr.getParent(); String name = tstLggr.getName(); msg("Name: " + name); Level dftLvl = tstLggr.getLevel(); msg("Default Level: " + dftLvl); msg("Setting Level as ALL..."); tstLggr.setLevel(Level.ALL); msg("Current Level: " + tstLggr.getLevel()); String prntName = prntLggr.getName(); msg("Parent Name: " + name); Handler[] hndlrList = tstLggr.getHandlers(); msg("Num of handlers: " + hndlrList.length); msg("Using parent handlers: " + tstLggr.getUseParentHandlers()); msg("Set parent handlers to FALSE."); tstLggr.setUseParentHandlers(false); nl(); System.out.println("Logging a SEVERE \"" + tstmsg + "\" without a handler."); tstLggr.severe(tstmsg); nl(); msg("Adding STDOUT handler to logger."); tstLggr.addHandler(new StreamHandler(System.out, new SimpleFormatter())); msg("And logging same SEVERE msg"); tstLggr.severe(tstmsg); nl(); msg("Logging FINEST msg"); tstLggr.finest(tstmsg); }
I can't figure out what I'm missing. Thanks ahead of time for all your help.

A Logger has a Level which determines which messages it will log. Any message with lower Level than the Logger is ignored - that's what's happening to you here. The Level can be set two ways (maybe more):
Use the Logger's setLevel() method, e.g. tstLggr.setLevel(Level.FINEST)
Edit the log configuration file, found in [JDK dir]/jre/lib/logging.properties, to either configure a named logger with a particular level, or set the global level for logging to the console to some other level.
See the APIs for Logger, LogManager, and Level for more details.

Thanks for your response and suggestion. But I believe I am setting the level properly. I have read the APIs but maybe I'm misunderstanding something...
I am not actually using the LogManager because I not handling a number of Loggers. I am only
out how its methods work.
Anyhow, here is a revised example and its output demonstrating the setting of the Logger's log level:
public static void msg(String m) { System.out.println(m); } public static void main(String[] args) { Logger tstLggr = Logger.getLogger("com.bgi.tmp.LogTest"); Logger prntLggr = tstLggr.getParent(); StreamHandler sh = new StreamHandler(System.out, new SimpleFormatter()); tstLggr.addHandler(sh); tstLggr.setUseParentHandlers(false); msg("Setting Level as FINEST..."); tstLggr.setLevel(Level.FINEST); msg("Current Level: " + tstLggr.getLevel()); msg("Is FINEST loggable? " + tstLggr.isLoggable(Level.FINEST)); msg("Logging message as finest."); tstLggr.finest("Please, please log me..."); tstLggr.info("But this will log..."); }
And the output:
Setting Level as FINEST... Current Level: FINEST Is FINEST loggable? true Logging message as finest. Apr 14, 2003 11:24:34 AM com.bgi.tmp.logging.LogTest main INFO: But this will log...

You have to call setLevel on your handler. So
should do the trick.
From the StreamHandler javadoc :
Configuration: By default each StreamHandler is initialized using the following LogManager configuration properties. If properties are not defined (or have invalid values) then the specified default values are used.
java.util.logging.StreamHandler.level specifies the default level for the Handler (defaults to Level.INFO).

I just thought I'd add something else I've discovered...
It looks like when I add a FileHandler to the Logger, it prints the FINEST
. Although the StreamHandler that prints to stdout still will not.

From the FilHandler javadoc :
Configuration: By default each FileHandler is initialized using the following LogManager configuration properties. If properties are not defined (or have invalid values) then the specified default values are used.
java.util.logging.FileHandler.level specifies the default level for the Handler (defaults to Level.ALL).
Read the javadoc !!

Thanks Don. That explains everything. I'm in the middle of reading the docs right now. I guess I missed the documentation for the Handlers.

Sorry, Spencer - I should have looked at your code more closely. Good that others were paying more attention.

FILE -- This Aug. 2010 photo shows tourists arriving through the front door of Graceland, Elvis Presley's home in Memphis, Tenn. Graceland opened for tours on June 7, 1982. They sold out all 3,024 tickets on the first day and didn't look back, forever changing the Memphis tourist landscape while keeping Elvis and his legend alive.(AP Photo/Mark Humphrey)
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WVLT) -- Could Kanye West buy Graceland?
A British newspaper says the hip-hop mogul may be in the market to by the King of Rock 'n Roll's former home in Memphis.
In an article published on Friday, the Daily Star quotes a insider for West's baby mama Kim Kardashian as saying, "Kanye thinks owning Graceland and restoring it to its former glory would cement his place in showbiz history"
Elvis' daughter Lisa Marie Presley owns the landmark home, but rarely stays there, the paper says. The source claims there have been rumors she'd consider selling as long as it stayed open to the public.

15% is nothing. I remember in Aug 12 UBNT lost 40% in a single day on bad guidance. Definitely not for the faint of heart.
Beware of shorts jumping out of buildings.
Market reaction to great earnings is inscrutable.Provides an opportunity to add without paying up.
It's 5PM somewhere.
Joe, I think you hit the nail on the head.I suspect the US and Saudis have not conspired (that sounds too devious) but are waging economic warfare on Russia. A punishment for Putin's Ukraine adventure. Among the collateral damage are oil companies shareholders. But this too shall pass.
Oil is or will be obsolete as a fuel, lubricant or coolant.I say au contraire.Don't know where the bottom is as yet no huge volume puke but price is good enough for 1/3 of a position.But I could be wrong.
It is a bit of head scratcher.Although pork prices are down,corn is down over 50% since the beginning of 2013.The trading in SEB is pretty good illustration of why it's so important to have some ready cash on hand.
That always make me wonder,if I'm buying who is the guy selling. Or if I'm selling who is the guy buying.
To hedge against your RSH long ,of course.
Only the British would visit DC in August.
A pro doesn't let a little loss turn into a big one.
Not defending Kelly,but I'd hate having all my trades broadcast on national TV.
ICPT accounts for 1.32 % of XBI. It is 1 of the 85 holdings in XBI.
You want the LUX board.
Speaking of losers
I guess I'll have to wait for In-N-Out to go public.
It's the escalator up,but the elevator down. Reviving some bad old memories.
Gartman is supposed to be some market savant,yet sells a newsletter to peeps .I'm sure everyone having knowledge of future market moves, would not trade off it, but would try to sell that knowledge to others.LOL
Jefferies left a lot of money for El pollo loco on the table. Wall Street finally gave investors a break in their mispricing.

Guestbook comments from the owner
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in your home at Flagler Beach. Your home is beautiful, the weather was good, and the waves on the beach were up which pleased the kids. Lots of fishing and lots of beach time for the our kids and grandkids. I'm not much of a "beach guy" myself but I enjoyed kicking back and getting in plenty of reading while we were there. We made several excursions to see Fort Matanzas and on up to St. Augustine as well as the restaurant scene around Flagler. I especially appreciated Jill's attentiveness and promptness in attending to the air conditioning problem we experienced on the the top floor. The repairman was out to check things within an hour after I notified her that it wasn't working properly. Evidently it was only a minor adjustment as it was working fine in a short time. Jill also made a point of alerting me as soon as possible that my granddaughter had left behind a (special) blanket and kindly returned it to me. Thanks also for the complimentary pastries and the coupon for the bakery and restaurant where Linda and I enjoyed breakfast on our last full day. We will certainly keep your home in mind when planning future vacations in its part of Florida.
I am glad you were pleased with how we left the home. We always make every effort to treat wherever we stay as if it were our own.
Take care and our best wishes to you and your family.
Eric and Linda
St. Charles, Missouri

Tyre Use
Clincher tires are the popular choice of tire for the majority of cyclists, due to their easy-fitting mechanisms and variety of choice. At ProBikeKit USA, we have a wide range of clincher tires , including brands such as: Continental, Michelin, Schwalbe and more. With our selection of clincher tyres here at ProBikeKit USA, you'll be switching over tyres quickly and hassle-free, allowing you to get on with the rest of your ride.
Previously, tires have always been in the tubular style, which are glued or stitched to the wheel. This method works well for speed and security of the tire, and tubular tires are still very much available and well used, but as soon as a puncture happens, it means removing and re-stitching/gluing the tire back on. This can be time consuming, and so this is where clincher tires were brought in to allow for quick access and changeover for puncture repair.
You can shop our clincher tires on this page, if it's tubular tires you're looking for, click here.

It's in the Beans: Potential Link to Weight Loss and Blood Sugar Stability*
Green coffee beans contain naturally occurring antioxidants called chlorogenic acids, which have been studied for their effects on weight loss.* Some studies have shown a positive correlation to the maintenance of blood sugar levels in the body and have even suggested a potential link to slowing the production of body fat.* More research needs to be done, but these early findings continue to propel the popularity of green coffee bean extract as one of the most sought after natural weight management supplements in the market.
100% Pure Green Coffee Bean Extract Standardized to 50% Chlorogenic Acids
Our commitment to quality is unmatched. We source ingredients from specific regions known for their quality and purity, carefully selecting only ingredients that meet our strict quality standards. Our 100% pure green coffee bean extract is premium quality throughout, using only the finest quality coffee beans that have been harvested from trusted sources. Since chlorogenic acids are the critical compounds contained in green coffee beans, we mandate each batch be standardized to 50% chlorogenic acids, ensuring you are getting the highest quality and most effective product available.
Contains Patented GCA Green Coffee Bean Extract
Our formula contains GCA Green Coffee Bean Extract, which is one of the few patented forms on the market.

Unlike many weight management products that contain stimulants, NatureWise Green Coffee Bean Extract 800 contains approximately 20 mg of caffeine per capsule, about the same as a cup of decaffeinated coffee.
