Curious to know what others think of this new series called Being Human..
one of the stars Russell Tovey is openly gay..
i personally had mixed feelings.. would have been awesome if the wolf and vampire
were lovers
I like it. The vampire is so sexy. I like the girl too. I feel bad for her being a ghost.
bbca has some good shows i like this one was nice to see the werewolf kill the head vamp
the scene where the ex.. treated her extremely shitty and she just listened.
i would have kicked his butt...granted her ghost powers were still unknown to her...
For such young actors, the acting is first-rate.
"I'm chanting even as we speak, sweetie!"
I like it, especially the funny moments. Like when Annie was upset, and Mitchell said, "You've just got to meet the right person."
There was a weird bit at the end of the series finale. I'm looking forward to seeing it explained further in the second series.
I love this show. It makes me want to cry, it makes me laugh and it has scared me. The three main characters are really well developed and played by the actors. I am currently watching it for a second time on BBC1 and love it more then ever. Bring on Season Two.
Don't stop me now, don't need to catch my breath , I can go on and on and on. When the lights go down and there's no one left I can go on and on and on. Give it to me, yeah.
wow, i thought i was the only one who watched this show. i love it! what other shows has the werewolf been on, he looks familiar. i am looking forward to season 2 and hopefully some more shirtless scenes with the vampire. do you think the ghost has lost her chance to pass on to the other side? i would probably went ahead and went thru the door but then again i am a selfish coward!
^^LOL If that happened, the show is over.
"I'm chanting even as we speak, sweetie!"
just finished up the first season today...think it's a really great show.
Love the show. It was a great surprise because it really was not that well promoted. Thought I would die laughing when Annie was trying out being 'evil'! CONFESSSEESSHHHH!!!!
Oh, and I thought I would have a heart attack over Mitchell's rockin' hairy chest. Damn, he's sexy!
the original pilot did not include... Lenora Crichlow or Aidan Turner ..
Guy Flanagan(hairless chest) played Mitchell ...
Andrea Riseborough played Annie....
The orginal pilot was good. I am glad they changed it though. They made the vampires more modern which works better I think. Also I was not fussed on the original ghost much prefer the new Annie (adorable). Gald they changed it.
Don't stop me now, don't need to catch my breath , I can go on and on and on. When the lights go down and there's no one left I can go on and on and on. Give it to me, yeah.
Season 3 of the original series is starting Jan 23rd.
And the American SyFy remake aired Jan 17. I didn't like it...but I'll give it a chance.
^ I am really excited about the return of the original series. I am a little wary of the Syfy remake. I am huge fan of the series. Russell Tovey is wonderful and there's lots of heart and laughter through it all. I hope the Syfy series retains the same sense of humour.
For all sad words of tongue and pen,
The saddest are these, 'It might have been.'
Yeah the vampire (uk) is very hot, any pics?
One of my favs on tele...
I got into it right away. I was enjoying the premise of the show and then the ghost showed up and I was hooked.
Russell Tovey Is a sweetheart... except for that one litle problem of his
I saw the Syfy version and I loved every minute of it. I wish I would have seen the BBC 1 English version but I'm currently hooked on the syfy one and I have only seem the first episode.
The UK version is soo much better. Not saying the Syfy one is bad. But I just saw the series 3 premiere of the UK one and it was amazing.
Yay, thanks. The werewolf guy looks like he's used to bottoming.
US version, not awful. But not great either. I'll keep watching to see where it goes...
the guy who was interested in annie...but then went crazy on her...i thought he was kinda sexy.....
UK version continues to kickass. S3 is shaping up to be better than S2.
Now for the U.S version...
Okay, episodes 1+2 of the Syfy version were just really really bad. Very disjointed, crappy dialogue, trying too hard to mimic the original. etc
I almost just gave up on it. Besides it was weirding me out to watch the UK one on Sunday and the the US one the day after.
BUT, I am so glad I forced myself to watch episode 3 of the Syfy version tonight. It finally got me hooked. It was so good and I found myself appreciating the characters on their own terms instead of just comparing them to the originals. The dialogue and acting were also much better. Sally is still kind of the weakest link but she's improving. And I'm starting to think that Aiden is prettier than Mitchell.
I hope they keep going in a different direction than the original because I can see the potential of having two versions, now. And apparently it's doing well in the ratings.
The UK S3 finale.
I am loving that Robson Green has joined the cast of the UK series!
I may go to the Syfy series when the UK one finishes up, just to get my fix. Haha.
For all sad words of tongue and pen,
The saddest are these, 'It might have been.'
I love Being human Mitchell and George are hot
Damn the last ep of series 3 i was like wtf Hope there's guna be a 4th series
Anyone else been watching the Becoming Human Webisode's?
I started watching the Syfy eps, i like the Vamp he's ok , the ghost was really annoying in the begining.
I liked the werewolf guy, not as much as Russell tovey's though but REALLY hate the cgi wolf,
im guna stick with it and see how the rest of the 1st season goes i might end up liking it as much as the uk series
I just checked the Being human website, and there's going to be a 4th series next year
^ Yay S4! But honestly after that finale, I JUST don't even know where they'll take it. I'm still in shock. lol
+ As for the American version:
I'm glad, tbh. Otherwise I'd feel like I wasted my time getting into it.Syfy renews 'Being Human' for second season
Syfy notes the show has averaged 1.8 million viewers, making it the network's most successful winter scripted series launch in six years. Also, the show has a 53 percent female audience, making it the channel's most female-skewing series ever.
I'd ask what happened in the finale. But, BBC America hasn't aired it yet and I want to be surprised.
If my count is right, we get episode 6 this week.
Omfg it was so amazing.
Annie and Mitchell <3
Sasha was amazing too.
Im enjoying the Syfy version a bit more now, Glad it got renewed for a second season
i have no idea what they are going to do for the uk 4th series but i cant wait.
Its probably only me, but did anyone else want George to come through the door in the Syfy Dog eat dog ep and Shout
WHO WANT'S SOME OF MY CHAIR lol
I like the BBC version of the show, the American version---not so much, but its ok. To be honest, the only reason I watch the American version is because I think that the 2 guys who star in it are nice looking and I get to see them partially nude every once in a while. The BBC version is darker and definitely more fun to watch.
Interesting that SyFy renewed the American version for a second season. At one point they went way down in the Neilsen ratings and I didn't think they'd make it. Still, you have to take what SyFy says with a grain of salt. They have a habit of launching (bad and unoriginal) original programming that clashes with the viewing interests of their core audience. Except for Ghost Hunters and a couple outer space-type sci-fi series, most of their original shows have been bombs that didn't make it past the first season or two before being canceled. Not to mention those truly awful CGI monster movies they produce now and then. This is the reason so much of their content is second run stuff (i.e. older Hollywood movies and series/shows that were previously aired on bigger sister stations in the old NBC group, and re-runs of series that were piloted on CBS and Fox and were subsequently canceled). Now that Comcast has taken over the NBC network it may very well change the programming lineup on SyFy, regardless of what the current management at SyFy is saying.
The thing about 'canned' studio productions like Being Human is that they cost a lot of $$$ to make. The American networks will not keep them on the air if the ratings aren't high enough for them to generate enough advertising revenue to keep the show in production and make a profit. From the link to the article about the Being Human renewal it appears that SyFy still doesn't understand who its audience is and that they are about to make the same mistake yet again. According to the article, its mostly women who watch Being Human. They're calling this a skew because its mostly men within a certain age range who watch all the other programming on SyFy, and its specifically those men that advertisers whose spots are showing up during the Being Human commercial breaks are trying to target. They're not going to keep paying top dollar to advertise on a show that the majority of the people they're trying to sell their products to don't watch.
Being Human belongs on NBC, not SyFy. But Comcast will not put it there because they know it would get clobbered by heavy competition on the other networks in the ratings war. This is why I don't see much of a future for this show---even if they make it to the end of season 2. It was a mistake to copy the BBC template of this series. The undertones are just too emotional and sappy for SyFy. Its definitely a chick show, and that's why women love it so much. SyFy should have created their own kick-ass vampire action series---without the melodrama and a wee bit more testosterone. That would have been a win-win all around.
Some stuff. I still don't think they've announced an exact premiere date for UK Series 4 other than "early 2012" but they've started releasing some promo stuff.
Nina and George will be out.
This is the new lead cast (fuck yeah Michael Socha!):
And this is the "prequel" for Hal, the new vampire (back in 1955) holding a werewolf named Leo captive. I like that he seems different from Mitchell. He's pretty cute, too.
And this is the teaser for S2 of the Syfy/American Being Human:
I love both the original Being Human, and the American version. I actually look at them as being two entirely separate shows altogether. I'm not one to compare good things.
I prefer the American show a little more because it's so... well... gay. There is a ridiculous amount of sexual tension between Aidan and Josh.
I may have exaggerated on the, "ridiculous," but what I was trying to get at was the chemistry between them. I haven't seen such good casting since Sam and Dean from Supernatural.
Series 4 trailer for UK version.
Air date = early Feb 2012.
Watched the Series 4 premiere of the BBC verison.
So depressing. George. ;__;
The new season started out awesome. The british series writers are fuckin brilliant. Tom is such a bad-ass werewolf. He's so different from George since McNair trained him to be an amazing fighter.
^ I agree you guys. I didn't want to get ahead of myself but after S4 ep2 I think the UK series is doing just fine with the new characters. I'm enjoying it so much. And the new dynamic is great.
Annie continues to be awesome. And hilarious. I absolutely love Hal, so neurotic and intense and vulnerable. Strange mix. He is so unlike Mitchell--he's much more endearing. Tom is so mysterious and, yes, badass. George's whining really did grate at times so that is a welcome change.
Dunno how the writers are pulling it off. It's like an awesome reboot but not really. A+
p.s. I had to stop watching the Syfy/American version, this season is too cheesy so far. I dunno. Might stop watching it all together. But Sam Witwer and Sam Huntington are so hot. *conflicted*
I watched episode 2 of series 4 last night and loved every minute of it cant wait for the rest of the series,
I think Hal and Tom were brilliant and Annie was fantastic as always . Also Leo and Pearl were amazing,
I love this show, but I'm having a little trouble making the transition from Mitchell to Hal. I have no problem with Tom--Michael Socha is fit as fuck! It's just that Mitchell's character seemed much more dynamic than Hal appears to be. Then again, I had three seasons of Mitchell, and this is only Hal's second appearance. I can be patient.
Now I may be a little slower on the uptake than the rest of you, but I was a little thrown when I realized that Michael Socha was related to Lauren Socha from my other fave show, Misfits. I was focusing on his face and how something about it seemed familiar, and then I began noticing his accent--and WHAM! I saw Kelley in my mind's eye. It's cool to know that playing awesome characters runs in the family.
I am a major fan of the U.K version of Being Human and I just wanted to know what did you think of how they handled the departures of george and nina
young wild free
Initially I would have preferred a scene involving Nina's demise. Now after episode 2 I have changed my mind. The show has basically pulled everything into the future and is doing well. I enjoyed the new "trinity" and their dynamic. Annie remains great. And Im glad Tom is there. Someone learning about life and not fearing it. As for George, he was heroic and dramatic. Good enough for me.

Tate et al v. Restaurant Technologies, Inc. et al
Filing 174
ORDER APPROVING REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES, AWARD TO CLASS REPRESENTATIVES, AWARD OF ATTORNEYS' FEES AND DISTRIBUTION. 151 (Written Opinion). Signed by Chief Judge Michael J. Davis on 11/29/10. (GRR)
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF MINNESOTA Michael Tate, Joseph Shuster, Lyle Evanson and John Ayers, individually and on behalf of all other individuals similarly situated, Plaintiffs, vs. Restaurant Technologies, Inc., Parthenon Capital LLC, Jeffery R. Kiesel, John C. Rutherford, Jonathan O. Grad, Zachary F. Sadek, Philip A. Clough and Robert E. Weil, Defendants. On November 29, 2010 a hearing was conducted to determine whether the terms and conditions of the Stipulation of Settlement dated September 27, 2010 ("Stipulation") were fair, reasonable and adequate for the settlement of the claims asserted. In advance of the hearing and consistent with the Court's Order Preliminarily Approving Settlement and Approving Form and Manner of Notice, Plaintiffs oversaw the mailing of a Notice of Proposed Settlement of Class Action and Hearing Regarding Settlement ("Notice), submitted a motion and memorandum seeking Reimbursement of Expenses, an Award for the Class Representatives and an Award of Attorneys' Fees and submitted a Memorandum in Support of Entry of Final Approval Orders. ORDER APPROVING REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES, AWARD TO CLASS REPRESENTATIVES, AWARD OF ATTORNEYS' FEES AND DISTRIBUTION Civil File No. 09-cv-02076 MJD/JJG Having considered all records, files and proceedings herein and for good cause shown, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED THAT: 1. The Court has granted a Final Judgment and Order of Dismissal with Prejudice ("Final Order"). The Final Order certified the Class, appointed Class Counsel, appointed Class Representatives and approved the settlement in the above matter. In connection with the granting of the Final Order, the Court found that the settlement was fair, reasonable and adequate. The Court received one objection to the settlement and found that objection to be without merit. The Court's record reflects overwhelming approval of the settlement and no objection to the proposed reimbursement of expenses, proposed Class Representative award and proposed attorneys' fee award. 2. The settlement in this matter includes an initial cash payment of $2.55 million to the Class as well as the tendering of two interest-bearing Notes, one for $1.55 million payable on or before June 1, 2013 and the other for $1.40 million payable on or before June 1, 2014. Further, in the event of a sale of RTI in excess of $170 million, the Class is to receive seven percent (7%) of the gross sales proceeds in excess of $150 million in lieu of the $1.40 million Note. While the Notes have maturity dates of 2013 and 2014 respectively, it is anticipated that, should Restaurant Technologies, Inc. ("RTI") engage in a sale, that the Notes will be paid at the time of sale under most circumstances. Counsel for RTI has advised the Court on more than one occasion that one of the motivations for RTI to resolve this matter was to permit a sale of RTI to go forward. 2 3. The Court finds that the settlement of this matter confers a substantial benefit on the Class, that the litigation had significant risk, that the vast majority of Class members approved the settlement and that further litigation would have been protracted and expensive. 4. With respect to the reimbursement of expenses, the Class Representatives have presented evidence they have incurred Two Hundred Fifteen Thousand and EightySix Dollars ($215,586) in connection with the prosecution of this litigation and that Eighty-Eight Thousand Three Hundred and Thirty-Three Dollars ($88,333) of that amount was contributed by 34 individual Class members. In recognition of the individual monetary contributions, Class Counsel and Class Representatives seek to have a TwentyFive Thousand Dollar ($25,000) incentive payment distributed on a proportional basis to the 34 individuals who made contributions in addition to reimbursement of their contributions. The Court finds the expenses to have been reasonably incurred and the incentive payment to the individuals who contributed to defer costs to also be reasonable. Notice of these expenses as well as the proposed incentive payment was properly given and resulted in no objection from any Class member. The Court hereby orders reimbursement of expenses in the amount of Two Hundred Forty Thousand Five Hundred Eighty-Six Dollars ($240,586) in accordance with the Order directing distribution set forth below. 5. Class Counsel seeks an award of Thirty-Five Thousand Dollars ($35,000) to be divided by and between the four Class Representatives for their efforts in advancing the litigation on behalf of the Class. Notice of this proposed award was set forth in the 3 Notice to all Class members and has resulted in no objection from any Class member. Based upon the record before the Court showing the efforts made by the Class Representatives in obtaining this benefit for the Class as a whole, the Court finds that an incentive award in the following amounts to be reasonable: Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($7,500) each to Mr. Shuster, Mr. Evanson and Mr. Ayers; Twelve Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($12,500) to Mr. Tate. The Court orders payment of such awards in accordance with the Order directing distribution set forth below. 6. With respect to the award of attorneys' fees, the record before the Court shows that One Million Four Hundred Twelve Thousand Four Hundred Forty-Six Dollars ($1,412,446) in time has been spent on this matter by Class Counsel representing approximately 5,000 hours by partners, associates and paralegals. The time spent is consistent with the record before the Court evidencing extensive motion practice, extensive document discovery and over 30 depositions of fact-witnesses. Further, the time and hourly rates appear customary and appropriate for this community and the nature of the work involved. 7. In light of the time spent, the risks taken and the benefit conferred, the Court finds the attorney fee proposal which was negotiated by and between Class Counsel and Class Representatives to be fair and hereby orders as follows: a. b. Class Counsel shall receive 29% of the anticipated $5.5 million or $1,595,000. In the event a sale confers a benefit on the Class greater than $5.5 million, Class Counsel will receive 29% of any additional amounts up to a total Class benefit of $8.3 million, 27% of any benefit 4 between $8.3 million and $9 million and 23% of any benefit beyond $9 million received by the Class. DISTRIBUTION ORDER 8. The Class finds the Plan of Allocation set forth in the Notice to be reasonable and fair. There are 1,184,853 shares of common stock, 334,455 shares of preferred stock and 245,801 options reflected by the submission of timely Proofs of Claim. The Plan of Allocation calls for approximately 26.5% of the net settlement amount to be allocated to the RTI preferred stockholders, who hold approximately 22% of the collective shares filing Claim Forms, and 73.5% of the net settlement amount to be allocated to the RTI common stockholders holding approximately 78% of the collective shares filing Claim Forms. The Plan of Allocation considered not only the actual investment dollars paid by these shareholders in RTI, but also the impact of having shares converted to common shares at the time of the recapitalization. In the event that a sale of RTI occurs for over $200 million, the option holders who submitted timely Proofs of Claim shall receive a benefit of $10,000 for every $1 million in excess of a $200 million sale which benefit will be distributed proportionally among various exercise price groups. Distribution shall occur based on these percentages as set forth in the Notice. 9. Responsibility for the distribution of the settlement proceeds to Class members rests with the Claims Administrator and the Escrow Agent. For purposes of this distribution, the Escrow Agent will be Anthony Ostlund Baer & Louwagie P.A. 10. Within four weeks of the date of this Order, an initial distribution reimbursing expenses, providing the Class Representatives award and distributing 29% of 5 the $2.55 million cash portion of the settlement to Class Counsel may occur. The remainder of the cash shall remain in an interest-bearing account pursuant to the Stipulation of Settlement for subsequent distribution to Class members no later than June 30, 2011. If the initial distribution is delayed beyond that date, Class Counsel shall advise the Court and seek modification of this Order. Subsequent distributions to Class Counsel and Class members shall occur promptly after receipt of payments pursuant to the Notes or sales proceeds described in Paragraph 2 above. Those subsequent distributions shall be made in accordance with this Order and the Notice. 11. To the extent that any residual funds remain after distribution to all Class members and, to the extent it is not cost-effective to distribute those residual funds to Class members, such funds shall be donated to the Legal Aid Society for Hennepin County. 12. Without affecting the finality of this Judgment in any way, this Court hereby retains continuing jurisdiction over: (a) implementation of the settlement and any award or distribution of the Settlement Fund, including interest earned thereon; (b) disposition of the Settlement Fund; (c) hearing and determining any further application for attorneys' fees, interest and expenses in the Litigation; (d) the Parties for purposes of construing, enforcing and administering the Stipulation; (e) setting a bond in the event of an appeal from this Order; and (f) adjusting or modifying distributions to any Class 6 member who engages in an unsuccessful appeal so as not to financially harm other nonappealing Class members. IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: November 29, 2010 s/ Michael J. Davis Michael J. Davis Chief Judge United States District Court 7

Husband doesnt like my fantasy, what to do?
Find a Conversation
|Thu, 06-13-2013 - 3:24am
See i recently read the fifty shades of grey trilogy and i discussed with my husband trying
some of the sexual things in the book. He was taken back by it. he said he would try it but didnt
like the idea and was turned off by it. he acted like it was crazy of something. i dont know what to
do. should i give up my fantasy? how can i get him to see it from my way. any advice?
|Thu, 06-13-2013 - 3:36pm
I am not familiar with the book, but prehaps you could tell us what you wanted to do? I am fairly open, but if you wanted to do something that could make your husband feel inadequate or silly, I could see where it could turn him off.

Alot of times, men are conditioned to want to protect their wives. Doing things described in that book could be hard for a man to do in that light. I totally understand why that it is hot to you though. Perhaps you can explain to him why you like the fantasy and how it makes you feel? Has he been open to other things in the past?
|Mon, 06-17-2013 - 1:10pm
Like the other posters have said, start slow. Make sure that your husband can put a stop to anything if he feels uneasy about it. Maybe start with the blindfold because that might be the least threatening. Show how you enjoy doing the things and how maybe he can help you enjoy them.
|Mon, 06-17-2013 - 8:19pm
Sometimes when I suggest something new to my husband, he says "no" right away but if I give him time to think about it, he changes his mind. I have learned to suggest but not pressure him. He almost always comes around and we have fun trying something new.
I agree with the others who recommend baby steps.
|Sun, 07-14-2013 - 7:02pm
There are two things to keep in mind here:
1) Not all vanilla people can get used to (and comfortable with) kinky sex, particularly the varieties of BDSM.
2) 50 Shades of Grey is VERY, VERY unrealistic, in a lot of ways. Most of us in the BDSM world really dislike it, for that reason.
Light bondage, spanking, domination, etc. are almost vanilla things these days, but there are a lot of vanilla men who are hesitant to do it. They have been conditioned all their lives to not hit women, not order them around, etc., and that can be very difficult for them to get past. There is also a LOT of disinformation about BDSM out there, so many people still think (wrongfully so) that it is abusive, sick, etc.
You need to talk to him about all this very openly and honestly. He may or may not come around - there's no way to guarantee that he will.
|Sun, 07-14-2013 - 7:04pm
By the way, stay away from handcuffs. Stick with leather cuffs or soft, flexible things (like scarves). Metal handcuffs can really tear up your wrists if you don't know what you're doing.

Summary: A steep hike to the "saddle" of Cathedral Rock
Challenge Level: Hard
Hiking Distance: About 3/4 mile each way
Trailhead Directions: From the "Y" (the intersection of Highway 179 and Highway 89A), drive South on Highway 179 for 3.2 miles to the Back'O Beyond roundabout. Go West on the Back'O Beyond Road for about 3/4 mile. The parking area is on your left.
Description: If you want to get up close and personal to Cathedral Rock, this short (1.5 miles round trip), hard hike is for you. Hike up the trail which starts on the right (west) side of the parking area. You'll start out crossing a dry creek bed. Continue climbing up the trail and you'll come to a large slickrock area where you may find a group performing yoga exercises. When you reach the Templeton Trail, turn right and go about 60 paces to the beginning of the Cathedral Rock Trail on your left. The trail up is well marked with cairns and is very steep -- good hiking boots required! At the top of the trail there are wonderful views in all directions. The Cathedral Rock vortex is also located in the "saddle" at the top.

Kanye! Drake! Simple Minds!
Well, obviously it's great. But how great?
If this is how he sounds before quitting rapping ...
At least there's no rapping.
'Teenage Dream,' all singles all the time.
Their latest, 'Lisbon,' turns down the wistfulness just a notch.
'The Suburbs' has hit the Internet.
'Teflon Don' is hard to resist.
"I wanna see you but you're not home/I'm sorry I lost your favorite T-shirt/I'll buy you a new one/a better one."
Diplo was right.
His self-billed true return to form is here.
Does it live up to the hype?
Sex songs and inspirational ballads? Who does she think she is, R. Kelly?
Cheer up, front man Brian Fallon!
Now here is something we bet Jennifer Lopez does not have a backup plan for!
On 'Nobody's Daughter,' Love lashes out.
'Heaven Is Whenever' is here.
This is helpful.
Sorry, James Murphy.

Oh I know it! It totally takes away from the person's credibility when he/she starts that crap! And I've seen other things that he's written before that I don't agree with. Why does he do that? And get a proof-reader why don't he!
Emily, just so you know, don't ever link Mercola in a debate on any other site because the pro-vax people have deemed him laughable. I love his articles, but he really needs to be more careful with his mistakes. He often makes Grammar mistakes too. So if the pro-vax people can't find something about vaccines to argue about, they will laugh at him because of his obviously unedited writings. Anything to distract from the truth...

CPSC: Kenmore Dehumidifiers Pose Burn/Fire Risks, Recalled
08/07/2012 // WPB, FL, USA // Injury Lawyers News // Nicole Howley // (press release)
New York, NY — The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and LG Electronics (Tianjin) Appliance Co. have voluntarily recalled Kenmore Dehumidifiers for fire and burn hazards posed to consumers. The CPSC announced the nationwide product recall on August 2, 2012.
The dehumidifiers are being recalled after discovering that they can overheat, smoke, melt and catch on fire, which poses a burn hazard to consumers.
Due to the product defect there have been 107 reports of incidents, with more than $7 million in property damage and three reports of smoke inhalation injuries.
"This recall involves 35-, 50- and 70-pint dehumidifiers with a Kenmore logo on the front top of the unit, manufactured between 2003 and 2005. The dehumidifiers are made of white plastic and are between 21 and 24 inches tall, about 15 inches wide and about 13.5 inches in depth. They have fan and humidity controls on their top front panels and some models include remote controls. They come with front-loading water buckets. The model number can be found on the right side of the interior of the unit once the bucket has been removed," the CPSC reports.
The dehumidifiers were sold at Sears and Kmart stores nationwide, as well as on Sears.com and Kmart.com.
Consumers are advised to contact LG Electronics to receive a Sears gift card for either $75, $80, $90 or $100, which may be used at any Sears or Kmart store or at Sears.com or Kmart.com.
For more information concerning the product recall, please contact the Recall Fulfillment Center toll-free at (855) 400-4641 between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. CT Monday through Friday and between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. CT Saturday, or visit www.Kenmoredehumidifierrecall.com.

Samson Oil & Gas Operational Advisory
Samson Oil & Gas Limited (ASX: SSN) (NYSE AMEX: SSN) provides operational advice.
Spirit of America US34 #2-29, (SSN 100% working interest)
As previously advised, Stage 1 of a three Stage fracture stimulation program of the interpreted oil zones in the Permian section of the SOA #2-29 well has been pumped but the bridge plug and packer became stuck by frac sand. While part of the treatment string has been recovered a 2,200 foot fish, consisting of tubing and the packer/bridge plug, remains in the well bore. Joint venture commitments to work-over the Defender well, however, have caused the efforts to recover the fish to be temporarily suspended.The intention is to return the work-over rig to the SOA2 well site immediately following the scheduled clean-out of the Defender well. The recovery of the fish from Stage 1 would then be followed by pumping the remaining two Stages of the SOA #2-29 frac program. As previously advised, if an economic rate is obtained from this frac, then there would be many opportunities to pursue, both within the SOA prospect itself (such as drilling the Clipper location immediately adjacent, and subsequently the twenty-four, 40-acre spaced wells within this prospect) and in the 24 seismically defined prospects within the project area. These prospects have substantially identical seismic properties to the SOA prospect, which has now been proved to be generated by porosity development within the Permian section. Some of these prospects are located at substantially shallower depths, and could provide a consequential improvement in reservoir quality. Defender US33 #2-29H, (SSN 37.5% working interest) As noted, the work over rig is being transported to the Defender well site and will be rigging up and commencing operations to pull the existing completion string from that well bore. A clean-out string would be run into the full length of the horizontal wellbore, productive of oil from the Cretaceous Niobrara, to ensure that no sand bridges have developed that might have impeded the production rate. Following this clean-out, a completion string will be set, including a rod pump and the well will be returned to production.

Every Garment Has a Name
Often when we consider the sunnah (tradition of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, peace be upon him) of clothing ourselves, our minds instantly turn to issues of halal (permitted) and haram (prohibited). At the tip of our tongues are reminders about the evils of silk and gold, the necessity for wearing loose and modest clothing, and the dangers of dressing with arrogance or pride.
Yet in all of this, we sometimes forget the sublime purpose of clothing, and the reasons for which our Creator created garments. In Surah Al-Araf, Allah subhanahu wa ta`ala (exalted is He) says, "O children of Adam, We have given you garments to cover your nakedness and as adornment for you… " (Qur'an 7:26). Here, Allah (swt) tell us that: a) garments are a gift, a blessing, given to us by our Creator; b) that He gave us this gift to protect us and our vulnerabilities; c) that these gifts are a means to beautifying ourselves. The ayah (verse) goes on to say that the best of garments is God-consciousness, another gift from Allah that is intended to protect and beautify His creation.
The Qur'an uses the metaphor of garments elsewhere: in Surah Al Baqarah, Allah (swt) likens the relationship of a husband and wife – a relationship so powerful that it is considered half our deen (religion) – to that of clothing, "They are garments for you, and you are garments for them," (Qur'an 2: 187). As in Surah Al-Araf, our garments are a means for us to maintain intimacy with our Lord, protect us from the evils of this world and increase us in our love for Him.
"Fast fashion"
Despite the nobility conferred onto the role of a "garment" in our faith, our consumer habits have led us to behave otherwise. In short, we treat our clothes like trash. Literally – one third of our clothing ends up in landfills. We have become victims to the "disposable fashion syndrome", wherein we prioritize fashion and convenience over righteousness and justice. A report by the British charity War on Want entitled Fashion Victims, outlines how the demands of consumers like us to have cheap, instantly available clothing that can be discarded after one or two wears has led to inhumane conditions for garment workers in countries such as Bangladesh and China.
Even the most skilled garment workers in a factory in India earn only £65 a month (well below the national living wage). That means they are forced to live in crowded shacks, without clean water or electricity, because they cannot afford decent housing. The low wages mean that many workers are forced to work long overtime hours for little or no pay – sometimes until 3am – and risk verbal abuse, or worse, losing their jobs if they refuse to comply. The collapse of a garment factory in Bangladesh earlier this year saw over 1000 killed for the cause of "fast fashion".
"This industry is sucking our blood and growing and leaving us in this dirt and filth. Are we living in humane situations? Nobody cares…." —Garment worker who produces clothes for Debenhams and Next
Every garment has a name
At times like this, I cannot help but wonder how the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ would have behaved were he in our situation – were he constantly bombarded with advertising and imagery that made us question ourselves, that clawed away at our insecurities and whispered promises of perfection and worldly belonging in our ear.
The Prophet's relationship with his clothing was one that truly embodied the Qur'anic exultations of the (spiritually) noble status that is conferred on clothing. Abu Sa'eed Khudari narrates, "When Rasulullah put on a new garment, he would in happiness mention that garment's name," and then recite the following du`a' (supplication):
"Allahumma lakal hamdu kama kasauw- tanihi, as-aluka khayrahu wa-khayra ma-suni'a lahu wa-a'udhubika min sharrihi wa-sharri ma-suni'a lahu."
"O God, all praise and thanks to You for clothing me with this (garment). I ask You for the good of it and the good of what it was made for, and I ask Your protection from the evil of it and the evil of what it was made for."
There are numerous ahadith (sayings of the Prophet ﷺ) referring to specific items of clothing the Prophet ﷺ had – and what is notable is that each has been named by a distinct quality, such as the Yemeni sheet or the Rumi shirt. The fact that he named each item as he wore it indicates how well each item of clothing he possessed was known to him and loved by him, without the desire for more or disease of possessiveness clouding his heart. For the Prophet ﷺ, the act of putting on clothing was an act of worship – an opportunity to remember Allah, to thank Him for His gifts, and to use the gift as a means to becoming closer to His Creator.
Garments of God-consciousness
When I consider that the Prophet ﷺ was able to name each and every one of his garments, and yet I cannot event count how many garments I own is a sign of a lost sunnah perhaps – in my life, at least. Advertising and consumer norms have convinced us that it is normal to constantly desire and buy new clothes; that it is normal to discard clothes because we are bored, that it is normal to not question the source of our clothing, or how many people have suffered to satiate our desires. These habits of excess which I have unconsciously developed have not only caused me to be of those people who are "extravagant", and who "wrong people in respect of their goods", but have led me away from a beautiful sunnah – a sunnah wherein clothes can be a means of getting closer to Allah, by ensuring that we do not have an excessive number of garments, by ensuring that our clothes come from tayyib (pure) sources, and by ensuring that we are grateful for every gift of clothing that we have been given by Allah.
UK-based Muslim campaigning organization, MADE in Europe, is working to raise awareness about the spiritual and social harms of "garment greed", and ensure that we revive Islamic teachings about clothing. It is calling on each and every one of us to make our own personal pledges for change. I have pledged to no longer buy clothes from high-street shops this year, instead focusing on taking better care of my existing garments, and supporting charity shops instead. It is a personal effort to re-evaluate my relationship with clothing, to remove myself from the exploitation that is rife within the garment industry, and to appreciate every item of clothing I have as a gift from God and a means to become closer to Him.

Jazakallah khair for this very beautifully written article!
Masha Allah, thank you very much for this great article.
Wassalamu alaykum.
Masha Allah.
What do you think if I buy few quality expensive clothes instead of many cheap(fast fashion) ones?
If I have the money,I would like to buy clothes every year.
Hey said hassan, there is NO PROHIBITION about wearing expensive clothes in islam, as long as its modest,not silk(if your a man), pork leather…ect (I am sure you know what I mean). If Allah the almighty has blessed you with wealth? And you give your zakat, your sadaqa ect, what can't you go and buy nice clothing?
If I recall there were wealthy companions of the prophet and aswell as Imam hanifa who dressed well.
I found this on another Islamic website:
"Allaah says (interpretation of meaning): {And those, who, when they spend, are neither extravagant nor niggardly, but hold a medium (way) between those (extremes).}[25:67].
Being extravagant or niggardly is defined according to customs and to the circumstances of the person who spends. The expenditures of a person could be described as being moderate for him/her, but could be extravagance and waste in relation to another person.
Allaah says (interpretation of meaning): {Let the rich man spend according to his means, and the man whose resources are restricted, let him spend according to what Allaah has given him. Allaah puts no burden on any person beyond what He has given him…..}[65:7].
Anyway, there is no harm Islamicly for a Muslim to wear expensive clothes, eat good food, have luxurious means of transportation, and a spacious house, if this is done without being extravagant.
When Allaah blesses His slave with His bounties, He likes to see the effects of His bounties on him/her. The Prophet said: "Eat, drink and give charity without being extravagant, as Allaah likes to see the effects of His bounty on His slave." [Al-Bukhaari]
However, if a person has only what he needs for himself or his family, then he spends it on complementary things and becomes in need of help, or asks provision from other people to obtain the minimum necessary to support his life, then Islam does not approve of this nor is it wise to do so."
Allah knows best
@Said: Having nice and new clothes is not bad or haram in and of itself. But people living in the west have lost balance long time ago. There are alhamdulillah high quality fair trade brands, which make beautiful clothes while providing fair wages and also not harming the environment. You could choose to buy from them – this is called "buycotting" – since you are spending money on clothes anyways, but you remove your money from big chains which abuse people and nature to give it to the (ethical) competition.
But for the experience, why not try to have a "clothes diet" for a while? I stopped buying new clothes two years ago alhamdulillah, for the exact same reasons mentioned in the article, and I have to say it is one of the best decisions I`ve made. I became aware of so many things I wasn`t aware of before. I appreciate much more what I have. I swap clothes with loved ones and friends, which makes us feel closer than before while at the same time adding variety to our own closet. I buy second hand which is still in great shape, that`s also how I discovered great gems of vintage pieces! Now, I even buy second hand shoes, electrical items, furniture….the world has too much and throws away too much. By buying new stuff basically all the time, not only do we support inhumane working conditions (like low wages, child labour and often even sexual abuse in factories) but we are also maximising our carbon footprint, since most of the stuff comes from multiple far away places. The same is true for food.
I know it sounds a lot and complicated – but trust me, it is much easier than we think and are made to believe. It might be a struggle in the very beginning, but as muslims, struggling with our nafs is second nature May Allah guide us in this unbalanced world, may He guide us to make wise and sustainable and "sunnah compliant" decisions…Ameen.
wassalam Ilhaam
Since we're sharing clothing management styles, I have two basic categories of clothes: the staples (like work clothes, socks and the like) and clothes for leisure (i.e. "other", including dressy clothes down).
For staples, I maintain enough so that what with work travel and ordinary wash cycles I'm never short. They get retired as they wear out, and every year or two I'll 'top up' with new as needed to maintain the levels. I'm kind of OCD about this – no more and no less. :p
For leisure/"other", I wear and cycle through all my clothes – except for specialist clothing, there's nothing in my closet that doesn't get worn. So my general rule is to maintain just enough so I don't get bored – when I wear a blouse or t-shirt next, and I'm pleased to 'see it again', so that's when I know it's just enough and I want no more. That way I continue to love all of them for years and years. This tends to stabilise at a certain level; this way I will always only need a certain amount of closet space and no more. On a side note, I do try to keep in reasonably the same sort of weight range because it makes it so much easier to manage clothing sustainably.
In terms of eco-friendliness and ethics, because I can, most of my erm.. inner garments are organic cotton, because I don't like how ordinary cotton is toxic to farmers. My target is >50% organic cotton for when I do buy t-shirts. That's basically because these are the two categories of clothes that is possible to switch to organic, where I am. And no fashion accessories unless it's vintage or artisanal. I mean, there's nothing wrong in having nice things, but a garment's beauty is marred if I know it existed from ugliness – i.e. suffering of others and ruin of the land.

Bit Depth vs. Dynamic Range in Layman's Terms
Written by: Tiffany Joyce
Hi friends! A reader recently sent me an e-mail asking me to explain the difference between bit depth and dynamic range, so I thought I would post the explanation here for everyone's benefit.
Bit Depth
A bit is defined as the smallest unit of data. It's binary – it can be either 1 or 0, "on" or "off". Eight bits equals one byte, a thousand bytes equals one kilobyte (KB, or K), a thousand kilobytes equals one megabyte (MB), and a thousand megabytes equals a gigabyte (GB).
- An 8 bit image uses 8 bits of information to represent a single color.
- A 12 bit image uses 12 bits of information to represent a single color.
- A 24 bit image uses 24 bits of information to represent a single color.
- A 32 bit image uses 32 bits of information to represent a single color.
So what on Earth does all of THAT mean? It means that the higher the bit depth, the more color nuances are present in the image.
Let's put it in layman's terms in a purely illustrative fashion.
- An 8 bit image will be comprised of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black, and white.
- That same image as 16 bits will be comprised of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black, and white… but ALSO ecru, goldenrod, lemon, teal, azure, orchid, gray, and cream.
- The same image as 24 bits will be comprised of all of the colors of the 16 bit image PLUS crimson, tangerine, amber, mint, cornflower, lavender, dark gray, and vanilla.
- And so on.
Because an image of high bit depth uses so many bits of information to comprise a single color, the higher the bit depth the larger the image file size.
Dynamic Range
Dynamic Range refers to the ratio between maximum light intensities and minimum light intensities (lights and darks, highlights and shadows) that your camera can capture. A camera with a large sensor captures more of the dynamic range (you can see more of the shadows and highlights) than smaller sensors. So, a photograph will have a high dynamic range if there is a lot of variation in the lights and darks present in the image (lots of different colors, spots with reflected light, areas in the shade), and a low dynamic range if there is little variation between the lights and darks (monochromatic or following a single color scheme).
To achieve an image with a high dynamic range without buying a very expensive large sensor camera, create HDR images by taking several photos of the same scene at different exposure levels, then combine them in post-processing (this is why you have to convert to a higher bit depth when merging HDR photos – more shades of light also means more nuances of color). The dynamic range can also be compressed by adding light to dark areas (i.e. use a flash to pull a dark subject out of the background). Filters can also be used to darken portions of the scene, which would also compress the dynamic range.
Your camera's dynamic range capabilities aren't anywhere near the capabilities of the human eye. That's why so often times the photo you take isn't exactly what you saw "in real life". The camera can only capture a certain range of light intensities. To once again illustrate in layman's terms, think of dynamic range as a ruler. Your eyes can see everything from 1 to 12. But some cameras can only see 3 to 10, or 4 to 10, or 2 to 9. Click to enlarge:
Two Sentence Summary
To put it in even more basic terms, bit depth is related to color and dynamic range is related to light. So while they effect one another, they are not the same thing.

Mark D. Shelton, 17, an Evanston Township High School junior, skipped the school cafeteria lunch line Feb. 26. Instead, he headed downstate to Springfield to meet with state officials for the fifth Annual Evanston Day.
Evanston Day allows local residents and organizations to reach out and discuss issues impacting Evanston with state leaders. Shelton was joined by four other ETHS students who rounded out a full busload of registrants.
A group of four Northwestern University students representing student government also participated, as did City Council members and city staff.
"It's an opportunity to mingle with one another," said District 202 School Board President Gretchen Livingston, who said this was the first year both schools joined Evanston Day.
Their presence reinforced one theme of the day, a growing partnership between the university and ETHS.
"The ability to cultivate opportunity between high school students and college students is the ability to build and sustain a nation," Shelton said.
He was introduced by Evanston Mayor Elizabeth Tisdahl to a roomful of Evanston Day participants and other Springfield-based officials. On cue, Shelton discussed his idea of bringing public bicycles to Evanston's shared streets.
The City of Chicago has enjoyed success with its blue Divvy rental bikes.
"I really wanted to advertise the issue of bikes in the City of Evanston," Shelton said. "It brings up a broader issue of cultivating a greater community.
"And what I mean by that, is something as simple as bikes can open up different ways for people to get around the city with ease regardless of your socioeconomic background. That's always a good thing and hopefully, it can bring together different parts of the community."
The partnership between ETHS and Northwestern University was a topic shared at the Governor's Mansion luncheon.
Of urgency is promoting educational goals to effectuate science and engineering careers for both genders, with an encouragement to pursue arts and confidence-building disciplines.
The North Shore is an ideal home base for Northwestern University to cultivate future community contributors, said Morton Schapiro, Northwestern University president.
"Our principle campus is in Evanston, and I just love Evanston," he said Schapiro.
ETHS students are often invited to learn at university-based workshops and labs.
Later, much of the Evanston Day afternoon itinerary was spent in Secretary of State Jesse White's office where dignitaries dropped by.
White, who was not present, was, by default, a host as Evanston Day guests filled chairs at a long conference table or in other seating. A hallway of White's recognition plaques greeted Evanston Day guests.
For Rebecca Liron, a Northwestern University senior from Brea, Calif., this was her first time to Springfield. It was also the first time too for her fellow Associated Student Government peers.
Kevin Harris, a Northwestern University sophomore, Chris Harlow, a sophomore and Liz Deadrick, also a sophomore, were eager to experience Springfield. Liron, who is majoring in political science and international affairs, is a part of the Community Relations Committee.
"I think our committee is trying to interact more with government officials and we are trying to branch out," said Liron. "I think we're trying more to meet our representatives to let them know we want to work with them. She said her group plans in early April to travel to Washington, D.C.
Liron's group met state Sen. Daniel Biss and state Rep. Robyn Gabel.

Triage and Assessment Abbreviation
- 0Dec 21, '13 by CSUSM10I am a new grad to the ED and have come across some abbreviations when reading ED Triage notes and ED Assessments specifically. I'd like people to add more to the list, to hopefully create a more comprehensive list of abbreviations, as I only know a few of them.
abx - antibiotics
bibm - brought in by medic
c/c - chief complaint
c/o - complaint of
perrl - pupils equal round reactive to light
pms - pulse, motor, sensory
sob - shortness of breath
s/p - status post
vss - vital signs stableLast edit by CSUSM10 on Dec 21, '13 : Reason: updated
- 3Dec 22, '13 by Esme12, BSN, RN Senior ModeratorThe problem with hospital specific abbreviation is that hey don't belonging on the record. The Joint Commission has a specific list of approved abbreviations that are the only ones you use. If your facility allows thee abbreviations they need to make them official. Using unofficial abbreviations can lead to misunderstandings and mistakes.
These abbreviations above are ok except bibm...it should be..... patient arrived via Town A per EMS/ALS. bibm is not an approved abbreviation.
- 0Dec 22, '13 by chareQuote from Esme12Can you provide a link for this list? All that I have been able to find is their list of prohibited abbreviations.The problem with hospital specific abbreviation is that hey don't belonging on the record. The Joint Commission has a specific list of approved abbreviations that are the only ones you use. If your facility allows thee abbreviations they need to make them official. Using unofficial abbreviations can lead to misunderstandings and mistakes.
- 0Dec 22, '13 by psu_213, BSN, RNAlso, I only use VSS when I take a call from a LTC facility/medic/etc. and they specifically report that vital signs are indeed stable. If I take the vital signs, then I chart the actual vitals signs, not just VSS.
I have never heard of "BIBM." Also, I have always seen CSM (circulation, sensation, movement), not PMS. Perhaps they are approved by your facility...otherwise, stick with approved abbreviations.
- 1Dec 22, '13 by zmansc, RNWith our EMR we have a place for vitals which is where the specific numbers go. If I'm writing a note and explaining why I performed a treatment or dc'ed the O2 or something else I will use VSS or hypertensive, or whatever describes the situation without putting in specific numbers. I do this as a way to limit the double documentation that is unfortunately a part of our medical record. This way, if the reader wants the specifics they can look them up, but they know why we did something and the big picture from the note. It also keeps me from having a typo in the note that now confuses people as to what the vitals actually were.
As for the rest of the thread, I would agree that the abbreviations should be a short list of approved abbreviations and I would have no clue what BIBM meant.
- 0Dec 22, '13 by CSUSM10Our facility does have an approved list (14 pages long!) of abbreviations. However, some people use abbreviations outside of the approved list. I started this post to see some of these "non-standard" abbreviations, not so I could use them, but so that I can decipher some of these triage notes I get from the front when getting a new patient.
- 1Dec 22, '13 by Esme12, BSN, RN Senior Moderatorthe best people to ask would be your fellow staff , your clinical educator, and your manager.

MVC=Motor vehicle crash
MI=Myocardial infarction

LOC=Loss of consciousness (also sometimes level of cons)
NS=Normal Saline
BG/BS= Blood glucose/blood sugar
A lot of these I use when quoting medics/patients/family

ISABEL DALHOUSIE - Book 3
Nothing captures the charm of Edinburgh like the bestselling Isabel Dalhousie series of novels featuring the insatiably curious philosopher and woman detective. Whether investigating a case or a problem of philosophy, the indefatigable Isabel Dalhousie, one of fiction's most richly developed amateur detectives, is always ready to pursue the answers to all of life's questions, large and small.
When Mimi, Isabel's cousin from Dallas, arrives in Edinburgh with her husband, Joe, several confounding situations unfurl. First, Mimi and Joe introduce Isabel to Tom Bruce–a bigwig back home in Texas. The roving eye of Tom's young fiancée leads Isabel to believe that money may be at the root of her love for Tom. But what, Isabel wonders, is at the root of Tom's interest in Isabel herself? Then there are the feelings that Isabel has for Jamie, which are certainly hard to ignore. And she mustn't forget about her niece, Cat, who's busy falling for a man whom Isabel suspects of being an incorrigible mama's boy.
Of course, Jamie counsels Isabel to stay out of it all, but there are irresistible philosophical issues at stake–when to tell the truth and when to keep one's mouth shut, to be precise–and philosophical issues are meat and drink to Isabel Dalhousie, editor of the Review of Applied Ethics. In any case, Isabel is certain of the ethical basis for a little sleuthing now and again– especially when the problems involve matters of the heart.
About the Author
Alexander McCall Smith is the author of, in the Isabel Dalhousie series, The Sunday Philosophy Club and Friends, Lovers, Chocolate. He is also the author of the international phenomenon The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series. He is professor emeritus of medical law at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland and has served on many national and international bodies concerned with bioethics.
Praise for The Right Attitude to Rain: An Isabel Dalhousie Novel…
"The literary equivalent of herbal tea and a cozy fire . . . Invite[s] readers into a world of kindness, gentility, and creature comforts. McCall Smith's Scotland [is] well worth future visits." –The New York Times
"Charmingly told . . . Its graceful prose shines, and Isabel's interior monologues–meditations on a variety of moral questions–are bemused, intelligent, and entertaining." –The Seattle Times
"McCall Smith's assessments of fellow humans are piercing and profound. [His] depictions of Edinburgh are vivid and seamless . . . His fans are sure to embrace these moral peregrinations among the plaid."
–San Francisco Chronicle

Sons of Anarchy
Wed Feb 6, 10-11.35pm, 5USA
Wed Jan 30 2013
CommentsAdd +
Time Out Ratings :<strong>Rating: </strong>3/5
Series five, episode one
Clay was in extreme jeopardy at the end of season four of this Hell's Angels drama. But did anyone seriously think that Ron Perlman's elderly biker wouldn't stick around? That said, all that's keeping Jax from finishing the job is Clay's usefulness in the context of some unfinished business with the Irish mob. A reckoning can't be too far away but, in the meantime, Clay's like a wounded old grizzly – nearly out on his feet, but still capable of lashing out dangerously.
Jax is in charge of Samcro now and his first job is a toughie – the Niners are outraged by Tig's behaviour towards the end of season four and bloody retribution looks inevitable. There's still a sense that Charlie Hunnam's Jax is the only character who's endowed with any light and shade, but 'Sons of Anarchy' remains muscular, often brutal fun – as relentlessly watchable as it is often absurd.

Moritat Archives - Robot 6 @ Comic Book Resources
The Ashcan Allstars end Tank Girl week in style
Tank Girl returned to shelves on Wednesday in the form of Solid State Tank Girl #1 from Titan Comics. Perhaps coincidentally, but probably not, the artists at Ashcan Allstars have been celebrating Tank Girl week.
There's some good work there — Tank Girl is a hard character to get right, tonally. Alan Martin's signature character may have inspired a generation of Suicide Girls, but it's hard to find an instance in her comics where her sexiness is ever being used in an exploitative fashion. Sure, there's loads of gratuitous female and male nudity in the back catalog, but it's almost certainly there for comedic reasons rather than titillation. So any artist attempting to draw the character as a straight-up cheesecake pin-up is completely missing the point. By and large, the Allstars have mainly got it right, but I'll let you be your own judge of who's been successful and who hasn't — there's a gallery of examples after the break.

Comics A.M. | Archie feud goes into mediation; C2E2 attendance 'way up'
Legal | The New York Times ventures deep into the legal battle between Archie Comics Co-CEOs Nancy Silberkleit and Jonathan Goldwater, noting the two sides have gone into court-approved mediation. "Competing lawsuits filed in State Supreme Court in Manhattan and State Supreme Court in Westchester County lay out a litany of bitter allegations. He punctured her car tires, destroyed her Web site and claimed that she sexually harassed employees. She ordered him to fire several longtime employees because they were too old, too fat or too buxom, and let her dog, Willow, roam the offices and defecate in the art department." [The New York Times]
Conventions | Although no figures have been released for last weekend's Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo, organizer Lance Fensterman said attendance was "way up," noting that, "the size of the show floor doubled and the aisles were much more full than last year. That tells you how much attendance jumped to keep pace with the floor growth." [Publishers Weekly]
What Are You Reading? with Nate Powell
Hello and welcome once again to What Are You Reading?, where every week we talk about the comics, books and other stuff we've been reading lately.
Our special guest this week is musician and comic creator Nate Powell, who you might know from his most recent graphic novel, Any Empire, or the Ignatz and Eisner Award-winning Swallow Me Whole. When he's not creating comics, he's hanging out at the United Nations with the likes of R.L. Stine, Ann M. Martin and other teen-fiction writers in support of What You Wish For, a collection of young adult stories and poems. Proceeds from the book will be used to fund libraries in Darfuri refugee camps in Chad.

DC relaunch scorecard: DCnU or DC No?
Although it seems like DC's big relaunch announcement came out an eternity ago, it actually took the publisher less than two weeks to roll out the 52 titles and their creative teams for the big relaunch/reboot/overhaul coming in September. Now that the cats are out of their respective bags, I thought I'd see where various creators and characters will land after the reboot.
So I went back through DC's August solicitations to see who was writing or drawing what, and tried to map everyone to their post-relaunch project — if they had one. However, looking at DC's August solicitations, there seem to be several fill-in issues, so where appropriate I tried to map the most recent ongoing creative teams to their new projects (for instance, I consider Gail Simone and Jesus Saiz the regular creative team for Birds of Prey, even if they aren't doing the last two issues before September hits). Keep in mind that I just went through the ongoing series and skipped over all the miniseries … of which there are a lot, what with Flashpoint winding up in August.
It's also worth noting that although several creators didn't appear in the "big 52″ announcements, that doesn't mean their tenure with DC is necessarily over — some, like Frazer Irving, have said they have future projects that haven't been announced. So I tried to note where creators have talked publicly about their post-relaunch plans with DC (or lack thereof, as the case may be). The same could probably be said for some of DC's characters as well. Or, as Gail Simone said on Twitter: "Again, September is NOT THE END. There's still plans for characters that we haven't seen yet."
So let's get to it ….

In the year 2000, 86% of Caucasian children in the U.S. were reported by their parents to be in excellent or very good health, compared to only 75% of Hispanic children and 74% of African-American children. In addition, about 70% of youngsters from families living below the poverty line were reported as being very healthy, while the figure for children in higher-income families was 85%.
These are some of the key health-related findings of the sixth annual America's Children: Key National Indicators of Well-Being report, published in July 2002. Compiled each year by the Federal Interagency Forum on Child and Family Statistics, the report monitors the status of the nation's children in several critical areas, including health, education and economic security.
Other interesting minority health statistics in the study include:
