Where Are Genital Herpes Sores Located On Women
Here's a taste of what TheBody.com has to offer on this topic:
Get the Facts
Herpes Simplex (Cold Sores and Genital Herpes)What Is Herpes? Herpes simplex refers to a group of viruses that infect humans. Like herpes zoster (shingles, see Fact Sheet 509 ), herpes simplex causes painful skin eruptions. Itching and tingling are usually the first signs, followed by a blister that breaks open. The infection stays dormant in nerve cells. This is called "latency." However, it can become active again with no warning. Herpes can be active without symptoms or visible signs....

CINCINNATI (AP) -- Chris Heisey scored from first base on Todd Frazier's double into the left-field corner as the Cincinnati Reds came from behind for a 4-3 win over the Milwaukee Brewers in 10 innings on Sunday.
Heisey drew a two-out, four-pitch walk from Tyler Thornburgh (3-1), and Frazier followed with a line drive that one-hopped the wall. Heisey beat shortstop Jean Segura's off-target relay to the plate to give the Reds three wins in their four-game series against the team that has the majors' best record at 21-11.
Brandon Phillips greeted reliever Brandon Kintzler with a game-tying 425-foot blast to center with one out in the eighth inning. The homer was Phillips' second of the season and first since April 5.
Sam LeCure (1-1) pitched the 10th for the win.

Cameras stare as you browse at Barnes and Noble or rent a video at Blockbuster. They record the way you handle the merchandise at Macy's or how you glide to the music at the Union Square Virgin Megastore. Grab a latte at Starbucks, brunch on borscht at Veselka, or savor a martini at the Union Bar: cameras are watching every sip you take. Peering from skyscrapers with lenses that can count the buttons on a blouse three miles away, they watch every move you make.
Even Rudy likes to watch. After testing reaction to the monitoring of parks, public pools, and subway platforms, the city is quietly expanding a pilot program on buses. Cameras indistinguishable from lampposts have advanced from the perimeter of Washington Square into the heart of the park. They're already hidden at some bus stops and intersections to snag speeders and parking perps. More are on the way.The Housing Authority is rushing to put bulletproof cameras in corridors throughout city projects.
With little public awareness and no debate, the scaffolding of mass surveillance is taking shape. "It's all about balancing a sense of security against an invasion of privacy," Rudolph Giuliani insists. But the furtive encroachment of surveillance is Norman Siegel's latest lost cause. "I feel like Paul Revere, shouting 'The cameras are coming, the cameras are coming.' " says the New York Civil Liberties Union's executive director.
All summer, a crew of NYCLU volunteers scoured Manhattan on a mission to pinpoint every street-level camera. Next month, Siegel will unveil their findings: a map showing that cameras have become as ubiquitous as streetlights. It's impossible to say how many lenses are trained on the streets of New York, but in one eight-block radius, the NYCLU found over 300 in plain sight. And as one volunteer acknowledges, "There are tons of hidden cameras we didn't catch."
That's because it's routine in the security trade to buttress visible cameras with hidden ones, "so everything's covered and it doesn't look like a fortress," as one consultant says. These spycams scan unseen in tinted domes, from behind mirrors, or through openings the size of a pinhole. Under the joystick command of a distant operator, they're capable of zooming in or spinning 360 degrees in less than a second. If you listen to the people who install them, cameras are as common and elusive as shadows. But does anybody really care?
No New York law regulates surveillance (except to require cameras at ATM machines). Statutes that prohibit taping private conversations have been outpaced by video technology. Your words can't be recorded without your consent, but you can be videotaped in any public place. And you don't own your image (except for commercial purposes).
It took the Supreme Court some 90 years to apply the Fourth Amendment's privacy protection to the telephone. Before a landmark 1967 case, it was legal to bug a phone booth. When legislators finally reined in wiretapping in 1968, video was a speck on the horizon, and cameras were excluded from the law. Now Congress is inundated with privacy bills, but few survive the combined resistance of manufacturers, service providers, law enforcement, and the media.
In 1991 and 1993, proposals to limit surveillance were killed in committee by a lobby of 12,500 companies. Testifying against rules that would have required companies to notify their workers--and customers--of cameras, Barry Fineran of the National Association of Manufacturers called "random and periodic silent monitoring a very important management tool." This alliance backs its rhetoric with cash. During the 1996 Congressional campaign, finance and insurance companies alone invested $23 million in their antiprivacy agenda. And so the cameras keep rolling.
It's clear that surveillance makes many people feel safer. But researchers disagree about its value as a crime deterrent. The consensus is that cameras can curb spontaneous crimes like vandalism, but are less effective in stopping more calculated felonies. Though spycams are in banks and convenience stores, robberies at these places are staples of the police blotter. Hardcore crooks learn to work around surveillance: witness the masked bandit. And many cameras that promise security are only checked occasionally; their real purpose is not to stop a crime in progress, but to catch perps after the fact. Those reassuring cameras on subway platforms are there to make sure the trains run on time.
It's telling that the camera quotient is increasing in the midst of a dramatic decline in crime. Clearly the spread of surveillance has less to do with lawlessness than with order. "Just don't do anything wrong," advises the smiling cop monitoring the hidden cameras in Washington Square, "and you have nothing to worry about."
But Americans are worried. Last year, 92 percent of respondents told a Harris-Westin poll they were "concerned" about threats to privacy, the highest level since the poll began in the late '70s. Despite this concern, there's been little research into the effects of living in an omnivideo environment. Surveillance scholarship was hip in the '60s and '70s, but academic interest has dropped noticeably in the past 20 years. In the neocon '90s, the nation's preeminent criminologist, James Q. Wilson, says he "never studied the subject [of security cameras] or talked to anyone who has."

The research activities at the KOF Swiss Economic Institute are conducted by its five sections. Learn more about these sections, their organisation and the people at KOF.
KOF Swiss Economic Institute conducts a wide range of surveys among Swiss firms. The survey results are of vital importance to our forecasts and research activities. If you would like to take part in the surveys, you may register here.

In October, the business situation of Swiss companies is noticeably less favourable than before. On the other hand, the companies' expectations for the coming six months are almost unchanged and cautious confidence prevails. Nevertheless, the Swiss economy is encountering a degree of headwind this autumn.
The KOF Economic Barometer rose 0.5 points in October 2014, from 99.3 (revised from 99.1) to 99.8. With a reading close to the long-run average, the perspectives for the Swiss economy are friendly, but unexciting.
The KOF has made a slightly downward revision of its forecast for Swiss economic growth in the coming year. It now expects GDP growth of 1.7 per cent this and next year (June forecast: 1.8 per cent or 2.0 per cent) and 2.1 per cent in 2016. The reason for this is, on the one hand, the weaker international context and, on the other hand, data revisions. The unemployment rate will hardly change in the coming months. The general increase in prices continues to be low.

Will Ferrell Is Highly Overpaid
Thursday, November 19 by
Recently I reported that Forbes had crowned Simon Cowell the highest paid man on television. Now they've released a more pithy list and Will Ferrell sits at the top. Ferrell has been cited as the most overpaid actor in Hollywood based off the financial returns of his movies. This is of course due to flops like Land of the Lost and Semi Pro. An outraged Sean Penn commented, "Will Ferrell is one of our finest actors… who is willing to drop trow for laughs."Second on the list is Ewan McGregor, which is really hard to believe. Think about all the money that the Star Wars movies raked in. Not to mention Angels and Demons, Robots, Black Hawk Down, and Big Fish. Did The Island really do THAT poorly? (Forbes)

Chinese 'Blood Simple' Remake Crazier Than Anything Werner Herzog Has Ever Done
Wednesday, November 18 by
We told you in July about Zhang Yimou's plan to remake Blood Simple. And in record time we have a trailer for the House of Flying Daggers director's take on the Coen Brother's classic. It seems like something may have been lost in translation.
Looks cuckoo-bananas to us Americans but this is business as usual for Asian audiences. To make matters far crazier, Yahoo also reports that this version will include 100% more rap than the original. They are reporting that Yimou himself has written a rap theme for the film and that he recently performed it on Chinese state television. So, an accomplished filmmaker has diverted from his career path to pursue rap at the risk of embarassing himself. Tread carefully Zhang Yimou. You don't want Joaquin Pheonix getting in your ass.

Kevin Smith Can't Get Away with 'Dick'
Wednesday, November 18 by
Censorship has struck again, and not even Kevin Smith can wield his mighty sword to defeat it. The TV networks are prudes and don't like dirty words in their adveeeertissments (I wrote it like a proper British person would say it), so Smith's new comedy is changing "Dicks" to "Cops" for a title of A Couple of Cops, and the result is not double-entendre-y.This is disappointing because the new title doesn't make me giggle, it makes me drool. Maybe it's because I sometimes stick my pen too far up my nose, or it could be that it's so boring my brain seizes up in an effort to comprehend such a generic transformation. Hey, all you old people watching NCIS! You gonna have a heart attack if you see "Dicks" come up on screen? No, the WORD! Ahhhh, I can't talk to you people. (CinemaBlend)
'New Moon' Actress Nikki Reed
Wednesday, November 18 by Defy Media
Nikki Reed wrote the screenplay for the movie Thirteen at fifteen. It would have been more impressive if she would have written it at thirteen, but whatever. I guuuuess it's still quite an accomplishment. Now Nikki is reprising her role of Rosalie in New Moon. At 21 years of age. A word from Nikki: "I had hoped that girls all over the world would relate to Thirteen." I'm sure all the slutty, druggy ones did. Courtney Love probably balled while watching that movie. Balled right into her mound of cocaine. The pics after the jump will have you doing the opposite of balling.
Justin Theroux To Rewrite 'Space Invaders'
Wednesday, November 18 by
Based off Hollywood's new obsession with optioning everything that has ever existed, I automatically assumed that the classic video game Space Invaders was making its way to the big screen. Thankfully I made an ass out of "me" and "umption." Tropic Thunder and Iron Man 2 scribe Justin Theroux has been brought onboard to rewrite and possibly direct the Will Arnett-vehicle Space Invader. The movie tells the story of a space shuttle janitor who flies to the International Space Station to cock-block a hunky astronaut who has designs on his astronaut girlfriend.Never thought I'd see the day that I was thankful for a Harland Williams retread but with standards as low as they are these days, beggars can't be choosers.

J.J. Abrams Will Not Direct 'Mission: Impossible IV'
Wednesday, November 18 by
Paramount Home Entertainment put on a huge bash at L.A.'s Griffith Observatory to celebrate the release of Star Trek on DVD and Blu-ray and Screen Junkies caught up with J.J. Abrams on the black carpet. When asked if he would return for another impossible mission with Tom Cruise, Abrams indicated that he will serve as producer but has another film he's helming that will interfere with him directing another Mission: Impossible."The one I'm directing hopefully next year, I'm just in the early stages of that or middle of that, which is probably going to preclude my availability for doing Mission," Abrams said. "Although I so love what the script is, what the story is. Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec are writing a script and they're doing an amazing job so I'm already sort of envious of whoever ends up directing that movie."Don't feel too bad J.J.. I'm sure there are people out there that are jealous of Felicity. Somewhere.

Jeff Bridges Rides The Dusty Trail to Oscar Bait In 'Crazy Heart'
Tuesday, November 17 by
Jeff Bridges may soon be able to wipe away the stigma of "Four Time Academy Award NOMINEE" from his title and add the coveted "Academy Award Winner." The trailer for Crazy Heart gives him a role as strong as Mickey Rourke's in The Wrestler, but replaces bright spandex with a good 'ol fashioned gee-tar. The Dude plays Bad Blake, a broke down country music singer looking to find salvation with the help of a journalist (instead of stripper this time) played by I-look-like-a-sad-turtle Maggie Gyllenhaal. As Blake and the turtle struggle down the road of redemption, they learn profound things about each other and themselves, and it changes their perception of the future. Basically.Check out the trailer after the jump.

Bob Saget Explores Strange Things for A&E Reality Series
Tuesday, November 17 by
A&E has just shook hands with the Devil and hired Bob Saget to host the show Bob Saget's Strange Days (working title). In the reality series, Saget will travel the country exploring strange American subcultures. Detroit isn't yet on the docket…But everything from mail order brides to a survivalist cult prepping for the end of the world is fair game. There's also mention of visiting a fraternity, which in the scheme of things doesn't seem all that interesting, but you know how Bob likes himself some young ladies. I bet he'll drink those frat boys under the table and then stick it to all their sorority girlfriends. You go, Danny Tanner. You go. (THR)

This is the Amazon/Ebay of Latin America. It may be volatile, but I think that over the long term this company is going to outperform in a big way.
The middle class is coming! First-mover advantage is proving to be a big deal for the ecommerce king of Latin America and that eBay still holds 18.5% of the shares is very telling indeed. Many ways to make their money and the model is working. Gotta be long this stock.
MercadoLibre works superbly on a free-market model growing in six Latin American countries. Intelligently, the company entered into a strategic alliance with eBay to keep one of the biggest players at bay. MercadoLibre has done very well in terms of both revenue and earnings in past seven years, including the recession years. The revenue stream is also diversified. The Internet penetration in Latin American countries is still less than 50% on average. Rising disposable income and a growing middle class provide huge scope of growth. The ROIC and net profit margin for the past five years have been 33% and 25%, respectively. So it can afford aggressive marketing if, in the future, new players enter the market. And there is a bonus: It pays small dividend! In spite of such an outstanding performance, the company is trading relatively cheap.
A bet on the economic growth of Central and South America.
Worth re-upping on this dip. Currency fluctuations come and go, the business is here to stay.
Growth opportunities in South America. Once their economies recover a bit, this stock will start to move up.
Latin America's e-bay. Top dog in industry. Excellent LTD/equity = 0.03, steady revenue growth, steady dividend increase. Victim of temporary capital flight from emerging markets. ~30% off high because of emerging market fears. Excellent chance to take advantage of emerging market fears. Invest while others are fearful.
The worst is priced into the stock.
Exchange rates have given us a discount on this growing company that continues to thrive.
MELI is sitting in a space without much competition and will continue to grow. The stock is primarily depressed on worries of currency fluctuation.
Why didn't I pick this company years ago when it was $15? This has tremendous potential over the next 20 years and I believe eBay still owns 19.5% of the company which should help future growth. Now I have to buy less shares at $95 per share. With proper guidance and management which I hope they do have, there is every reason to believe they will be huge in the future. Same thesis for PSMT by the way.
Stock is another eBay. Underperforming big time Not bad company.
A great business in a rapidly growing region of the world.
I missed eBay... not going to miss this one.
We've seen this play out before with eBay. Two great businesses here with low debt, very little capital expenditures and a well known brand.
near monopoly position; growth thru increased internet access in L.A.; temp drop due to currency valuation
MercadoLibre keeps getting referred to as "the Ebay of Latin America".
Just in case "they" are right, I ran a comparison of MELI with EBAY. I assumed MELI would mimic EBAY in as many ways as possible. Then I compared its valuation to its current market cap.
Long story short, MELI's valuation would be worth $23 billion once mature --- or roughly $518 per share. At today's price of $110, that's a boatload of upside.
Whether or not the prognostication is accurate, the message was clear that this stock should continue to be en fuego. Outperform.
(9/9/2013 on the RB boards)
This was kind of an interesting article that I reference just to keep things in perspective:
- e-commerce in Latin America (as a whole) will be approximately $69 billion this year
- e-commerce in the US will be approximately $200 billion this year
EBAY has a similar business model as MELI and sports a market cap today of $68 billion. The total e-commerce market in Latin America is roughly 1/3 that of the US.
IF MELI were to find a way to become "the EBAY of Latin America" (everyone's favorite saying these days) and mimic EBAY's operations in every way possible (% share of the total e-commerce market, % margins, etc), they could expect their fundamentals to be roughly 1/3 of EBAY's as well. Or, said another way, their top and bottom lines would be 1/3 as large.
And if the market applied the same valuation to MELI's fundamentals as they do to EBAY's, MELI could have a market cap ~ $23 billion (1/3 * $68b).
Based on today's market cap of $5.7b, that would imply a 300% upside -- or a potential price of $518 per MELI share.
I know that this analysis is simplistic and inherently flawed. And I'm happy to hear any thoughts/opinions/outspoken verbal attacks about my assumptions (one of the largest being that MELI could sell to all of Latin America). But my bottom line is that if MercadoLibre can continue to grow, the Latin American e-commerce market can support plenty of upside for them. $128/share could seem like nothing, a few years down the road.
Long MELI
Last quarter was a good one. Currency fluctuations make results look funky. Will continue to perform well in the future particularly with recovering world economy
As Latin America continues to rise in wealth and computer acess, Mercado Libre reaps the rewards of wide-moat sector leadership in both South and Central America..
Great company, great business model, highly desirable market position in an industry that lends itself to demand side economies of scale (network effects). MELI has a strong economic moat, no qualms about that. However, the market price is expecting too much.
- This company is trading at 51x TTM earnings. I estimate 2013's FCFE to fall somewhere near $93M, meaning a multiple of 57x.
- Make the following assumptions: MELI manages to grow FCF at a rate of 15% a year for the next decade, and then apply a perpetuity growth rate of 6% (both pretty heroic assumptions). Apply a discount rate of 12%. Our fair value estimate would be close to $80 a share, well below its $120 current market price.
- Venezuela represents 15% of the revenues, and 20% of the operating profits. No company has been able to expatriate any money from Venezuela since 2011, and the outlook is quite pessimistic for the next 6 years (until Maduro's rule –hopefully- ends). Even then, in the quite optimistic scenario that a pro-market president takes office, he is bound to push for a drastic devaluation of the bolivar (Venezuela's currency) which will definitely hurt MELI's performance in this country, as well as it's accumulated assets. The illegal exchange rate in Venezuela is USD 1 = 32 VEF (which compares to the official yet fictitious rate of USD 1 = 6.3 VEF)
- Argentina represents 24% of the revenues, and 23% of the operating profit. Just like in Venezuela, Argentina applies currency controls, meaning the effective impossibility to expatriate any profits. Likewise, the argentinian peso is long due to depreciate, which the government resists. It is widely expected that Argentinas' next government will execute a painful devaluation of the peso, which will hurt MELI's performance (however, this might be partially compensated with a proportional decrease in SG&A and R&D expenses, since MELI's headquarter is located in Argentina).
- The internet penetration rate is close to 50%. Europe's most developed countries boast rates close to 80%. Even if this was achieved in 5 years, it would imply a CAGR of 10%. And afterwards there's little growth in this. After this theoretical catch up, all growth must come from GDP per capita growth, increase in market share (which MELI already dominates), increase in ecommerce as a percentage of GDP (which could at most double, if it is to catch up with developed nations)
- Argentina & Venezuela's currencies need to crack. Brazil's growth is moderating. Mexico is fine, but represents less than 5% of the revenues.
- To sum up: MELI is in an enviable position in Latin America's e-commerce, however the market's expectations are "too damn high". I would rate it a "Hold" at best.

Back to the Green Lantern character sheet.
The Black Lantern Corps
Emotion: None (Death)
Leader: Nekron
Base of Operations: Ryut
Entity: Black Hand
The blackest night falls from the skies,Per the Blackest Night prophecy, the emergence and conflict among the other colors led to the stirring of the Black Lanterns. Their Power Battery is made from the corpse of the Anti Monitor. Their leader is the Black Hand, a long time Green Lantern enemy and necrophile. They have their own Guardian, Scar, an Oan corrupted during the war with Sinestro. The being behind it all is Nekron, the avatar of Death, who claims that the natural state of the universe is eternal darkness and death absent of time and that the light of creation and life is but a temporary disturbance of that state; and to that end, death has stirred to restore this "peaceful" state of rest.The Black Lanterns devour the light of all other Lanterns (whose lights are supposed to collectively represent Life). They've been manipulating heroes and Lanterns to make them experience pure extreme emotions which they can feed upon. Their rings animate the dead, giving them whatever abilities and memories they had in life (though the souls are absent) along with flight and ridiculous levels of regeneration.Though Nekron was defeated, the consciousness of the Black Lantern Firestorm remained in the Firestorm Matrix; soon splitting off and naming himself Deathstorm. Deathstorm then claimed the White Lantern and used it to recreate more Black Lanterns, who served the Anti-Monitor until the real Firestorm intervened and destroyed them.
The darkness grows, as all light dies,
We crave your hearts and your demise,
By my black hand— the dead shall rise!
Notable Black Lanterns and Associated Characters
Homeworld: The Land of the UnlivingThe Death Entity. The universal personification of oblivion—the absence of all light, life, and emotion. Nekron is the shadow cast by the light of life and emotion. For eons, he was trapped in the Land of the Unliving, a kind of limbo dimension where dead souls linger before judgment, but the death of the immortal Krona brought the universe of the living to his attention. He seeks to bring an end to all life, extinguishing the light of emotion and bringing the universe back to its original state of being: darkness and death.Several times since his existence was revealed, Nekron attempted to enter our universe and destroy all life, but each time he was repelled by its heroes, most notably the Green Lanterns. However, Nekron had a plan: the Blackest Night. By engineering the creation of a tether to the material universe—William Hand—and the construction of his own power rings and Power Battery on the decimated planet Ryut, Nekron was able to create the Black Lantern Corps, who brought him physically to Earth. Nekron attempted to destroy his opposite, the Entity, and thus end all life in creation, but the combined forces of all seven lights of emotion with the Entity itself revived Hand, cutting Nekron's link to the material plane and banishing him back to the void.
Black Hand
"William Hand. Born. Died. Re-born. Died. Re-re-born. Died. Say what you like about Black Hand. Death fetish aside, the man's a survivor."
AKA: William Hand
Homeworld: EarthThe son of a funeral parlor owner, William Hand, even at a young age, had an unhealthy obsession with death. Atrocitus predicted that he would become a threat to life itself, and tried to murder him, only for Hal Jordan and Sinestro to rescue him. In the aftermath of the battle, William stole Atrocitus' weapon (a rod that could absorb energy and channel it into energy blasts) and became a supervillain, Black Hand.Eventually, he found his true destiny. By committing suicide, he rose from the grave as the first Black Lantern, providing Nekron with a tether to join the living universe. He led the Black Lanterns as Second-In-Command, until the power of the White Light restored him to living, breathing flesh and blood, taking away his powers and Nekron's link. He was taken into custody of the Indigo Lanterns, being forcefully converted into one of them; however, he later died escaping the tribe, becoming a Black Lantern once more.
Deathstorm (Black Lantern Firestorm)
During the Blackest Night, the Black Lantern of Ronnie Raymond, aka Firestorm, stood out among his colleagues as one of the most sadistic and twisted, turning the girlfriend of the current Firestorm, Jason Rusch, to salt and forcing Rusch to help. Ronnie was later returned to life by a White Ring, but the Black Lantern consciousness remained in the Firestorm Matrix, eventually separating from Firestorm and calling itself Deathstorm. Deathstorm was able to claim the White Lantern Battery and bring it to the Anti-Monitor before Firestorm arrived, foiled the Anti-Monitor, and destroyed Deathstorm with the White energies.
Homeworld: Oa (formerly Maltus)During the final battle of the Sinestro Corps War, one of the female Guardians of the Universe was burned by the touch of the Anti-Monitor. This fundamentally changed her, to say the least. She soon began exhibiting suspicious behavior, including goading her fellow Guardians into increasingly dubious decisions regarding the GLC and emotion, manipulating other Corps into conflict with the Green Lanterns, and dispatching agents to locate the corpse of the Anti-Monitor. All the while, she secretly began composing a "Book of the Black", chronicling those who would play a role in the upcoming Blackest Night. It was evenutally revealed that she had been killed by the Anti-Monitor and was now Nekron's agent in the land of the living. She was destroyed during the Blackest Night by Hal Jordan and the New Guardians, who combined their individual lights into white light, obliterating her.
The White Light
Emotion: All (Life)
Base of Operations: EarthDuring the battle with Nekron he revealed that Earth was home to a White Entity, a being similar to Ion and Parallax but one that sparked life itself in the universe. In order to fight Nekron and protect the entity, Sinestro bonded with it but proved unworthy; Hal Jordan then bonded with it and briefly turned himself and other previously resurrected heroes into White Lanterns. White Lantern rings also revived a handful of other metahumans that had perished, starting with Black Hand and thereby making Nekron unable to exist in the physical world.After the battle, only one of the resurrected heroes, Deadman, still had a white ring. A white Power Battery has also appeared, but nobody has yet been able to lift it.
Notable Characters Associated with the White Light
The Entity
Homeworld: EarthThe Life Entity—the living embodiment of the White Light of Creation, the being who represents life itself and, indeed, brought life into existence. The Entity was created by The Presence and found itself on Earth, where the process of evolution was sparked. Over the eons, its progeny—the lesser entities of the emotional spectrum—manifested, while the Entity itself slept in Earth's core. The Entity is the opposite of Nekron; the yang to his yin.It has revealed to Deadman that it is dying from Nekron's attack, and that a replacement must be found.
Dove (I and II)
AKA: Don Hall, Dawn Granger
Homeworld: EarthMembers at different times of the superhero duo Hawk and Dove, Don and Dawn are pacifistic heroes paired with a much more aggressive hero called Hawk. During the Black Lantern invasion, both Doves displayed unexplained power over their enemies: Don's corpse could not be moved from its resting place by the black rings, and Dawn could emit white light energy that would obliterate Black Lanterns completely.
AKA: Boston Brand
Homeworld: EarthBoston Brand was originally a trapeze artist who went under the stage name of "Deadman". Unfortunately, the stage name became literal when he was killed by a mysterious hook-handed man during a show. He spent the next several years as a ghost under the Hindu goddess Rama Kushna, solving crimes and aiding the superhero community from the other side.In the wake of the Blackest Night, none were more shocked than he was to find himself back in the land of the living. He realized that he alone still wore a White Lantern ring, which soon spoke to him. It began bringing him to different places, allowing him to witness the other resurrectees (unseen and unheard, not unlike when he was a ghost) and asking him to help them before delivering him to Red Oni, Blue Oni team Hawk and Dove. The three are now working together to try and unravel the mysteries of the White Light.
Swamp Thing
AKA: Alec Holland
Homeworld: EarthAlec Holland was hit with a lab explosion and ran into the swamp, becoming a monstrous plant creature - at least, that was the original story. It was later revealed that Alec perished, and the Swamp Thing was a separate being created by the accident that had Alec's memories.Nekron's attack corrupted Swamp Thing, making it believe it was Nekron instead of Alec. The Entity responded by resurrecting Alec and making him an actual Swamp Thing, and once the original Thing was killed it appointed Alec its successor as protector of life. In the New 52 reboot, Alec is now fighting along with Animal Man as champions of nature (Swamp Thing representing "The Green", or plants, and Animal Man representing "The Red", or beasts) against another force of death known as "The Rot" or "The Black", a new incarnation of "the Grey" force of decay (which is now its counterpart in Earth 2).
Kyle Rayner
Homeworld: EarthIn Green Lantern: New Guardians, Green Lantern Kyle Rayner is shown to have the ability to channel all seven colors of the emotional spectrum. During the Rise of the Third Army event, Kyle is trained by Lanterns of each color to prepare himself for the Third Army. By issue #16, he masters all seven colors and becomes a White Lantern.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Fantastic for academics. Catfoot is a little clique-y but everyone can find their own clique. Campus is large, and Definitely not a place to wear heels above an inch, girls. Lunch is fair, but they have a snack bar where you can get brand name things like Arizona Ice tea and Chex mix. School is personal computer friendly, and you can get on the internet if a teacher logs you in. Drugs are generally low, but people do get into Marijuana, but you are not going to find a school anywhere that doesn't have that problem on some sort of scale. You can sign your students up for random drug tests. A lot of the teachers are understanding, but students will stuffer if teachers don't demand respect, or the kids are disrespectful. Catfoot is good for extra-curricular activities, but a lot of things don't have in-school funding.
Our son is a graduate of CFHS and just completed medical school. He thought CFHS was one of the best experiences of his life. The music program is incredible as are athletics. He was supported and received excellent school counseling. It is an incredible public high school
I went to this school as a freshman 2006-2007 i loved this school so much everyone is very excepting and great. ya a lot of people smoke weed but thats not bad at least i think it doesnt effect them in a negative way they can still get outstanding greads and have fun doing it. I no longer to to the school but i visit once in a while the teachers are okay but they really teach you and help you but you have to make an effort to. but over all the kids are awesome and you get a great education while having fun.
The lunch program at this school isn't the best, but it can keep inmates alive as well as students. The new principal enjoys keeping the school quiet and lacking in excitement. Due to recent budget cuts, class sizes may increase to around 40 students per class. The school has a great drama department along with science, though the physics department is lacking in good teachers. The students are great people, and rarely are their fights or gang related issues. The school has great extracurricular clubs and activities, including sports. The school has a National Honors Society which provides a place where students may receive peer-to-peer tutoring. The school also offers AP classes along with Honors and Standards courses.
CFHS is a very accomplished school, their academics are the best in town. They are ahead in science along with their languages being excellent.
I love CFHS. The campus is amazing, the students are academically driven, and there is always a place for you to fit in. I graduated from CFHS; and I can say that I was fully prepared for my college work- load... I attend princeton.
I love this school, and i dont think the drug problem gets in the way of a good high school experience. The councilors are not very helpful, but i got around that. Some of the classes don't teach you anything, and you have to learn some things yourself before a test. But the reason i love this school so much is because of the arts program. Mr. Jackson is an incredible conductor and he is also extremely cool and understanding. He brought our choirs to a level of excellence that surpassed my expectations. If you are in the area i would encourage you to go to the choir concert on monday october sixth. The concert chorale is amazing and the jazz choir is very talented. the lowest choir is kind of awful but the woman's choir is very accomplished and they have a great tone. The campus is beautiful too.
I'm a graduate of Catalina Foothills and I can truly say I loved my highschool experience. Just like any other school in Tucson, there are problems and someone is always going to disagree with something, but I was truly prepared for college. All throughout my first year at my university I heard people talking about how difficult the transition was, but my highschool friends and I didn't feel the same way. Foothills prepares students for the future. It's a fantastic place for both academics and extracurricular activities. An absolutely incredible school.
amazing! best school ever! except the science teachers...they need a little help...except mr.thompson
great school. the math and science dept isn't as good as the history and writing dept but is still good
This school is not all about what people think (drugs and money as the previous writer said). It is an amazing school with great education programs. Many people may have money but not everybody does. There are a lot o. The sports are also excellent and it is a great learning envoiroment. You dont have to be intodrugs and stuff toenjoy your time at CFHSf people that are there to be educated
umm the person who wrote 'This school is full ofpeople who think that life is only full of money and drugs. Please do not take your kids here if you want them to sucsseed. They will run with people who do drugs all the time.' has obvious problems..... 1. you probably lack in self awareness and you did drugs 2. Do you even go to the school? I mean thats what most outside of CFHS students would say because they are jealous. and its so biased that you think that EVERYBODY does drugs only maybe 2% does drugs. And are you implying that other schools in Arizona there is no drug use? 3. Probably only you didnt succeed my older sister in fact went to harvard from CFHS and all her friends went to great collages and 85% of the students from CFHS go to collage.
Amazing school. 9 of my 11 teachers have been above and beyond fantastic as well as always willing to help. My counselor has helped me get every class and helped me work around my busy varsity sport schedule. I went to another local private school for a year and was excited when I was further challenged academically at Foothills. Everyone is accepted into extracurricular activities and everyone very friendly and outgoing. It's not hard to fit in and have a great high school experience here. I feel my experiences at Foothills will help me get into a great school and not only succeed but excel at any college. If you want to see more proof why this school is perfect for a high school experience the credentials are all over wikipedia.
anyways, the prices for food are ridiculous too. 4 bucks for a hamburger a water bottle and chips, daaaang. at sabino high they get the same meal for half the price. sports here are really good too. our soccer is amazing, our baseball is great too, our football is alright, and many others too. there are tons of clubs too, many started and run by students. we have a great marching band. the councilors were helpful but they were rude. o yeah i forgot to mention, the security is quick to point fingers at students so if your kid goes there dont be too quick to punish them. students also have a tutoring center where they can get tons of help on any class. the library is huge which is great for papers and the librarians know a bunch of websites to help you find great info.
This school is full ofpeople who think that life is only full of money and drugs. Please do not take your kids here if you want them to sucsseed. They will run with people who do drugs all the time. This happened to me
my child has had two excellent humanities/writing teachers and two very good math teachers. However, it does not seem that the efforts of the dedicated teachers are much valued. For a school with supposedly strong academics, there is little appreciation of academic excellence, and love of learning, towards the teachers. The principal does not welcome parental input. THe good points: generally good behavior and discipline, high-achieving student and parent population, and beautiful campus. I just wish they would cultivate a real faculty of the good teachers, and value them.
Our freshman struggled in math and upon receiving a poor grade his first semester, the assistant principal assigned him to time in the tutoring room 'the nest' and he raised his grade by two grade levels the next semester. Thanks to the total devotion of Ms. Shane-Boyd, the band director, and the resulting fabulous band, the marching band performed in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade this year. This is definitely a wonderful school, the teachers are helpful and answer emails immediately. There are also plenty of safeguards in the school system, so that no one falls through the cracks.
majority of students are great to hang on, but most of the cases science teachers(Chemistry, Biology and physics) are neither knowledgeable or motivated to teach.So credit for good results should go to parent or studentnot to teachers.
Great school. Lots of teachers truly dedicated to providing the best education possible to their students. The Arts are huge at CFHS, with lots of plays and musicals, art shows every quarter, and one of the largest high school marching bands in the country. Sports are also very big here. In the 05-06 school year, we won the championships in 8 sports. We had plenty of athletic scholarships in the senior class, including one of the only two soccer scholarships in southern arizona. The PTA is very active and does a lot of good for Catalina Foothills.
Good programs available, for those who want to learn.
