Laptop still gets very hot... the only thing this cooler seems to be able to cool is itself. There is only one central fan and it is pretty weak and fails to deliver a powerful stream of cold/cool air onto the laptop. It is also a pretty noisy device. The knob to control the rpm of the fan is very fiddly; it is placed on the side of cooler which makes it very easy to nudge.You can get a lot better for the money.

Coral Springs, FL (PRWEB) June 07, 2013
The producers of Communities of Distinction TV are pleased to announce June air dates for the city of Springfield, Illinois. It is a typical middle-America city located between Chicago and St. Louis on historic Route 66. The largest employers are in healthcare and government service making it economically valuable to the state. Residents and visitors can enjoy many professional artistic performances in the grand theaters in the area. The informative program features the best in American cities and towns and relates information which is relevant to everyday life. Viewers will be able to watch the show on Fox WRSP-TV.
The show host is Terry Bradshaw, a Hall of Fame quarterback from the Pittsburgh Steelers. His popularity began on the football field while leading the storied team to four Super Bowl titles and picking up two Super Bowl MVP awards. Terry is just as popular now as he was then. From the locker room to the board room, he has become a hot commodity in corporate America. He is a favorite motivational speaker and an often- requested celebrity for endorsing companies and their products. His well-known outgoing personality and credibility are key factors in his continuing celebrity. Throw in some cameo appearances in a few major motion pictures and close to a hundred appearances on the Jay Leno show, and the reason is clear why Terry Bradshaw is a great host and segment narrator for the Communities of Distinction TV program.

|New Living Translation (NLT)
|New International Version (NIV)
|1 Whatever happens, dear brothers and sisters, may the Lord give you joy. I never get tired of telling you this. I am doing this for your own good.
|1 Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord! It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again, and it is a safeguard for you.
|2 Watch out for those dogs, those wicked men and their evil deeds, those mutilators who say you must be circumcised to be saved.
|2 Watch out for those dogs, those men who do evil, those mutilators of the flesh.
|3 For we who worship God in the Spirit are the only ones who are truly circumcised. We put no confidence in human effort. Instead, we boast about what Christ Jesus has done for us.
|3 For it is we who are the circumcision, we who worship by the Spirit of God, who glory in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh--
|4 Yet I could have confidence in myself if anyone could. If others have reason for confidence in their own efforts, I have even more!
|4 though I myself have reasons for such confidence. If anyone else thinks he has reasons to put confidence in the flesh, I have more:
|5 For I was circumcised when I was eight days old, having been born into a pure-blooded Jewish family that is a branch of the tribe of Benjamin. So I am a real Jew if there ever was one! What's more, I was a member of the Pharisees, who demand the strictest obedience to the Jewish law.
|5 circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; in regard to the law, a Pharisee;
|6 And zealous? Yes, in fact, I harshly persecuted the church. And I obeyed the Jewish law so carefully that I was never accused of any fault.
|6 as for zeal, persecuting the church; as for legalistic righteousness, faultless.
|7 I once thought all these things were so very important, but now I consider them worthless because of what Christ has done.
|7 But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ.
|8 Yes, everything else is worthless when compared with the priceless gain of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I may have Christ
|8 What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ
|9 and become one with him. I no longer count on my own goodness or my ability to obey God's law, but I trust Christ to save me. For God's way of making us right with himself depends on faith.
|9 and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ--the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith.
|10 As a result, I can really know Christ and experience the mighty power that raised him from the dead. I can learn what it means to suffer with him, sharing in his death,
|10 I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death,
|11 so that, somehow, I can experience the resurrection from the dead!
|11 and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.
|12 I don't mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection! But I keep working toward that day when I will finally be all that Christ Jesus saved me for and wants me to be.
|12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.
|13 No, dear brothers and sisters, I am still not all I should be, but I am focusing all my energies on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead,
|13 Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,
|14 I strain to reach the end of the race and receive the prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us up to heaven.
|14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

Letters to the Editor - Sept. 13, 2013
Friday, September 13, 2013
Serve, protect?
To the editor: Police motto states "to Protect and Serve", but my daughter found out this morning that it is not the case in Dover. Many parents for a variety of good reasons prefer to drive their child to the Middle School. In my daughter's case it is a necessity as she, a widow, HAS to be on the road by 7:05 a.m. to get to her job in Portland, Maine by 8:15 a.m. Whatever the reason, parents have the option of using the bus of not. The morning traffic situation leaving DMS is horrific and dangerous and there is no traffic detail helping out. What my daughter got for a reply from the head of Dover Police Traffic was,
Perhaps the school district should address this issue and the bus concerns issue and find a reasonable and acceptable solution. In the meantime the Dover Police or DMS needs to do something to serve and protect the parents and children of DMS.
Seiler running
I attended Riverside Military Academy (ROTC) and completed my high school at Exeter High. I have attended UNH, served in the U.S. Army, Army National Guard and the Coast Guard Auxiliary.
It is hoped the University will reconsider and if they must expand play space look at other alternatives.
Public service?
Progressive Welfare
We shouldn't blame welfare recipients. By not working, they are simply responding rationally to the incentive systems our public policymakers have established. However, Government welfare is systematically undermining a civic culture of independence that was a great American treasure.
RE: Garage
Because the City Council insisted that no present property tax money be used the Parking Commission has been looking into ways of creating a capital reserve fund that would become available in the event of any construction bond. We have urged the sale of underutilized non-taxable city property to add to this fund and the upcoming sale of the First St. parking lot is the first step in that process. Combining the proceeds of this sale with ongoing parking revenues will mean that we will have close to a million dollars in the fund by the end of 2014. In addition, no one yet has ruled out the possibility of a private/public partnership, creating retail/commercial space in any parking structure, or ultimately looking at a garage within a TIF district, should the Council approve such a plan; all for the purpose, Mr. Scott, of meeting the Council requirement that there would be no impact on property tax bills.
To be fair, this is not to say that the Council may not change its mind at some time in the future. If there is a sudden spurt in downtown development it's possible we'd need a parking facility sooner rather than later, but that would take place only after a series of public hearings and input from citizens/taxpayers, downtown merchants, and other affected parties. At the present time, however, Mr. Scott's comments are not based on reality.
Whose side?
I was amazed at the haste, impatience and reckless disregard for the counsel of allies like Great Britain and the forum of the United Nations as Obama pushed the one thing on his mind; a military attack, a solo act by the United States. Obama has lost as much at home as he has internationally, and Kerry will be forever seen as little more than a clown, devoid of the intellect required to conceive and execute foreign policy decisions that will advance America's vital interests on a global basis.
Just wish Putin ware on our side. Hell, I wish Kerry were …
Farm bill
On the other hand, food stamps are easily vilified as a money drain that simply pays for the meals of those so-called "lazy" Americans who purportedly refuse to work for their food. For the poor and hungry, food stamps are necessary for keeping enough money to pay for the gas needed to get to work, or pay for the electricity needed to keep the home habitable. The poor do not need food stamps because they are "too lazy" to work and earn money. The poor need food stamps because there is no other money to spare given their dire predicament.
Unfortunately, there is no such congressional logic for the recipients of food stamps. To quote Krugman, "if you're an American, and you're down on your luck, these people [House Republicans] don't want to help; they want to give you an extra kick." From my perspective, America needs a serious wake-up call when it comes to understanding the real reasons the hungry rely on programs such as food stamps, and why despite the fact that the US has so much food, so many people are still having difficulty eating all three meals each day.

Hi Karen great tips on dealing with dcilfiuft people. You are so right I think they are here to teach us a lesson. I also used to let them aggravate me, but like your first tip mentions, I changed my perspective. I decided the more dcilfiuft they were, the nicer I would be. It made me feel good and in most cases they came around to the other side and stopped being dcilfiuft after a while! Great show!!

text: Home > Medical > First aid > The basics Updated 23 July 2014 First aid in the workplace Every workplace should have a central point (operations centre in a big factory, switchboard in a small office) through which emergency action is co-ordinated. 0 Assess Am I at risk of a stroke? » Ask CyberDoc » Quiz Would you survive disaster? » How to perform the Heimlich Manoeuvre How to save a choking child "Common things occur commonly" and so the first aider or emergency care provider would expect emergencies related to common conditions prevalent in the local community and therefore the workplace. The common emergencies in South Africa would be related to: Heart disease (heart attack) Asthma Diabetes Epilepsy Trauma (injury) CommunicationEvery workplace should have a central point (operations centre in a big factory, switchboard in a small office) through which emergency action is co-ordinated. In an emergency workers should have an internal emergency number to call through which they reach an operator who would respond first aiders, summon the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and send someone out to meet the ambulance. The operator would have clearly displayed at their station the emergency number for EMS. (e.g. 10177 is currently the National Medical Emergency Number, very soon 112 dialed on Telkom and cellular phones will replace all the emergency numbers) Internal responseEvery office, factory, mall, shop etc. should have an Emergency Medical Response Team with training in first aid (including the use of Automatic External Defibrillation) and basic first aid equipment with which to respond. Communication from the "shop floor" with the control point is essential (radio or cell phone). Heart attackThe symptoms of a heart attack include: Severe central "crushing" chest pain Pain radiating into the neck or arms Sweating Shortness of breath Nausea and vomiting The management is to rest the patient i.e. don"t let them walk anywhere; provide oxygen via mask if you have and offer them half a Disprin to drink voluntarily. Get the patient to the nearest hospital or hospital with a heart unit by ambulance (ambulances have all the right equipment to treat patients) as soon as possible. If the patient collapses unconscious, their heart may have stopped and the emergency care providers will have to do Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and then provide defibrillation. AsthmaAsthma is a very common respiratory disease which causes the lung air passages to narrow due to inflammation, swelling, mucous production and spasm of the muscle in the walls of the air passages. The patient will be short of breath and may exhibit wheezing (high-pitched sound on expiration). In severe asthma they may not be able to talk, will have a very fast pulse and may be confused. The asthma patient will want to sit up to facilitate breathing. Provide oxygen if you can. If they have an asthma pump they can attempt use but don"t delay getting them to hospital if the symptoms are severe. Transport the patient to the nearest Emergency Centre in a sitting position or call an ambulance. DiabetesDiabetics rely on injected insulin or tablets to keep their blood sugar at normal levels. Occasionally they can inject too much insulin or because they don"t eat at the right time the tablets or insulin lower the blood sugar too much, causing loss of consciousness. The patient may complain of sweating, anxiety and heart palpitations before lapsing into unconsciousness. If they are diabetic they will usually know they are going "hypo" and will take some food. If they are unconscious the first aider can smear glucose gel onto the gums and must get them to an Emergency Centre as soon as possible. Low blood glucose is life threatening. EpilepsyEpilepsy is a very common condition (usually because the patient hasn"t taken their medication) in which the patient may experience a loss of consciousness with initial whole body spasm followed by rhythmic contraction of all the body muscles. The patient will usually have a loss of bladder control. Management of a patient having a seizure is to turn them on their side and protect the head from injury. Allowing the patient to seize on their back may cause a severe head injury. Allow the seizure to pass and then monitor the patient on their side while you wait for an ambulance. TraumaThe common consequence of trauma and injury is bleeding and fractures. External bleeding is obvious and is best stopped by continuous external pressure with a wound dressing and or towel and elevation of the affected limb. Blunt trauma to the chest or abdomen can cause internal bleeding which for the first aider may be difficult to detect. Uncontrolled bleeding may lead to "shock" (insufficient blood and oxygen supply to the brain and major organs) and so the control of bleeding is very important. Fractures are usually evident by the swelling over a bone at the site of injury, reluctance by the patient to move the bone, deformity, pain and grinding of the two ends of the bone on movement. Fractures should be immobilized (splinted) in a position most comfortable for the patient, making sure that the circulation downstream from the injury is intact (pulse, good colour, capillary refill < 2 seconds). The best splints are wire splints covered by padding. The joint above and below the injury should be immobilized.Last updated: July 2009 More in Medical CPR More: First aidThe basics SPONSORED: So many prizes!

Hopefully this belongs in the equipment category...
So I have the following fryer stand from Academy and was wondering if there is any specific reason I wouldn't be able to "upgrade" to a BG12 from Bayou Classic? Or even somehow replace with a 23 jet burner? Any input is appreciated but for $17 and 2 day Prime shipping, I may just jump and take my chances that it will fit. Thanks.
Edit: Didn't realize the link didn't attach... sorryhttp://www.academy.com/webapp/wcs/st..._-1?N=77985508
I have retro-fitted a BG12 and a BG14 on an old turkey fryer stand from Academy. You just have to get creative with the mounting brackets. Other than pairing it with the proper regulator it should be pretty easy. Plus Amazon will take most stuff back if it isn't used.

Now, check out this segue ...
The uniforms worn by the early 19th-century naval officers in Jane Austen's Persuasion, and the sails on their ships, were most likely made out of the fiber Cannabis sativa, better known as hemp. In Dazed and Confused, the pothead that the title fits best holds forth at one point about how George Washington was a hemp farmer. Turns out he was right--the Founders saw a fine future for hemp as a cash crop in this country. In fact, the Declaration of Independence was first written on hemp paper.
These fascinating tidbits, and many, many, many others about hemp, are there to be had from The Hemp Revolution, filmmaker Anthony Clarke's zealous documentary, which trumpets the plant's uses--for paper, textiles, medicine, clean-burning fuel, seed oil, food, and, by sheer coincidence, recreational drug. Clarke also chronicles how thehemp industry in this country was destroyed not out of concern over marijuana abuse, but because competing industries such as timber saw hemp as a threat.
As cinema, The Hemp Revolution is negligible, but it is a watchable, interesting crash course in the hemp lobby's position. Inevitably, Clarke's film contains clips from Hemp for Victory, the famous WWII-era Agriculture Department film (which was suppressed after the war). The Hemp Revolution, too, is nothing if not a propaganda film. Its message, summed up, is that Hemp Can Save the World. Well, this certainly would be fine with me, but I'd guess that, for now, it must remain a lovely pipe dream.--M. V. Moorhead

One big shot threw one big wrench in the Southern Piedmont Conference championship race Friday night.
Gaston Day's Derek McKnight hit a running 3-point jumper with four seconds left to beat Victory Christian in double-overtime. The shot set off a wild court-storming celebration at Gaston Day and, more important, the 63-60 win vaulted the Spartans back into the Southern Piedmont championship race.
Gaston Day now trails conference co-leaders Victory Christian and United Faith by one game. Gaston Day hosts United Faith on Tuesday and plays at Hickory Christian on Friday. Victory Christian visits United Faith on Friday.
Gaston Day can sweep its final two games and get a share of the conference championship if United Faith were to beat Victory Christian.
• Providence Day is 19-3 and No. 2 in the Observer's Sweet 16, but coach Brian Field likes that his team is winning off the court, too. The Chargers' 11 players take 13 AP courses and their combined semester report cards showed 25 As, 29 Bs, 14 Cs and no Ds or Fs.
• Myers Park coach Wes Hepler said he has dismissed star guard Austin Dasent for the season. He declined to say why, saying Dasent, a Division I prospect, had a bright future and he wished Dasent well. Myers Park upset Butler on Friday in its first game without Dasent.
• Cherryville honored its 2004 basketball team Friday. The '04 team went 23-0 in the regular-season and 11 of the 12 players were at the game Friday with Highland Tech. That '04 team lost in the regional championship game, a place the current team hopes to go. Cherryville (17-2) beat Highland Tech 83-60. Cherryville got 17 points from freshman center Yung Sherrill and the team made 10 3-point shots.
• Central Cabarrus freshman girls point guard Mahaley Holit looks like a future star. She has been consistent all season, playing on the big varsity stage, and I suspect she has a Division I future. Friday, she led Central Cabarrus to a 66-57 win over rival West Rowan. Holit finished with 27 points and 10 assists. West Rowan sophomore Khalia Hall had a career-best 28.
• Speaking of freshman, Concord has a special one in 6-foot-3 guard Ty-Shon Alexander. Alexander had a team-high 26 points in a 74-67 win over Cox Mill on Friday.
• Myers Park girls star Aliyah Mazyck missed Friday's game with Butler while recovering from a concussion. Freshman McKenna Haire got the start for the nationally-ranked Mustangs. Haire is heavy into cross-fit and classes at basketball factory Accelerate Basketball. Haire shot 250 3-point shots the day before Friday's games, where Haire and Myers Park beat Butler 69-39 Friday.
• Watauga upset Sweet 16 No. 8 Freedom on Friday, ending the Patriots' chance at an unbeaten season. Jay Harrill had 34 points and Cam Baker had 14 in a 75-64 win. Freedom fell to 17-1.

Comics A.M. | Disney reportedly tightening belt, mulling layoffs
Business | Marvel parent The Walt Disney Co., which just purchased Lucasfilm for $4.05 billion, reportedly has begun an internal cost-cutting review that could include layoffs in its studio and other divisions. The cutbacks are believed to focus on jobs that are no longer needed because of technological advancements and redundancies created by the acquisition of Pixar in 2006, Marvel in 2009 and Lucasfilm in 2012. Disney has made a series of staff cutbacks over the past couple of years, beginning in January 2011 with 200 jobs in its interactive division; Marvel trimmed about a dozen positions in October 2011.

Patrick Zircher on Shadowman, plus an exclusive preview of Issue 3
Possessed by a spirit that dwells within him, charged with protecting the people of New Orleans from ghastly creatures from the beyond, Shadowman has always been a dark character. With the revival of this classic Valiant series, Patrick Zircher and Justin Jordan have "hit the refresh button," as Zircher says below, going back to the moment when Jack begins to experience himself as the Shadowman and moving forward from there. His old nemesis, Master Darque, is still in the picture, but Jack's more immediate problem is a horrifying new villain, Mr. Twist. I talked to Zircher, penciler and co-writer of the series, about where he and Jordan plan to take Jack. Valiant also provided ROBOT 6 with an exclusive preview of Shadowman #3.
Robot 6: How did you get this gig? And did you start out as a co-writer as well as the artist, or did that just evolve?
Patrick Zircher: Warren Simons, Valiant's executive editor, called. Warren and I had worked together at Marvel on Thor, Iron Fist, and several other books. Warren was one of Marvel's best, and he has always been willing to let me expand as a creator. I first began inking my own work for Warren and we talked even then about writing, too. With Valiant, from the get-go we discussed it as well as drawing. The capacity of the writing has evolved. As I've shown what I can do, I'm, happily, writing more.

If I had $15, I'd go with Megaskull, a collection of short, extremely politically incorrect comics by British cartoonist Kyle Platts. Platts is working a similar vein of humor to Johnny Ryan in his Angry Youth Comics days, so those easily offended by jokes about, say, abortion should probably stay away. Those who still own a copy of Truly Tasteless Jokes will want to check this out though.
If I had $30, I'd ignore Megaskull and go with what would pick of the week for me: Grandville: Bete Noire, the third entry in Bryan Talbot's excellent, ongoing funny-animal detective series, this time finding Inspector LeBrock tracking down an assassin in the city's art scene. Talbot's blood-soaked blend of noir, satire, mystery and, um, furry antics might seem a bit odd at first glance but it proves to be an intoxicating and engrossing blend.
Splurge: Grendel Omnibus, Vol. 2 collects one of the most interesting runs starring Matt Wagner's titular killer, largely due to the art work of the Pander Brothers. I've never had the chance to really sit down with this material beyond the occasional five-minute glance, so mayhap this is my chance to dive in.

If I had $15, I'd start out with Legend of Luther Strode #1 (Image, $3.50). I was behind the times on the first series, but now I will raise my fist to the air and decree "NO MORE!" (to the stunned silence of my local comic shop owner). Justin Jordan really brought a different take on this story, but for me the sizzle on this is Tradd Moore's art. It reminds me of Sam Keith's middle-period during his Marvel Comics Presents Wolverine run, and that's nothing but a good thing. After that I'd get Stumptown #4 (Oni Press, $3.99). Some might compare Dex's journey to that of Jessica Jones in Marvel's Alias, but it's anything but. Greg Rucka really knows how to make a story feel more than just mere fiction. My third pick this week would be Invincible #98 (Image, $2.99), seeing Mark Grayson get his powers back – just in time to be stomped into the ground, from the looks of it. Reading this series since the first issue, I'm noticing the colorist change more and more here; John Rauch definitely is a step removed from FCO Plascencia, and I'm still getting used to it. Kirkman and Ottley are delivering here so well that Domino's should be jealous. (ba-dum CHING!) Last up in my Wednesday haul would be Avengers #1 (Marvel, $3.99). I've noticed in doing Food or Comics for as long as I have how I'll routinely follow writers but when they manage to get an artist I particularly like I'll fall over myself trying to get to it. Case in point, this book, with Jonathan Hickman joining forces with Jerome Opeña to kick off a new era for Marvel's flagship book. I'm all for "Jonathan Hickman's Avengers," but I'm even more excited to see Opeña's take on this.

If I had $15, my Wednesday haul would start with Glory #30 (Image, $3.99). This series has been great, and since Kris Anka began doing covers, it's gone to very great. Now, seeing New Yorker cartoonist Roman Muradov coming in to do a story makes it potentially even more, well, great. I'm psyched to see Glory face off against her sister, and Campbell's depiction of both has been mesmerizing. Next I'd pick up Comeback #1 (Image, $3.50), featuring letterer Ed Brisson making his major writing debut. The cover design by Michael Walsh is impeccable, and the concept of time traveling for grieving loved ones is a fascinating concept. Next up, I'd get a Marvel double – Wolverine and the X-Men #21 (Marvel, $3.99) and Hawkeye #4 (Marvel, $2.99). This carnie issue of Wolverine and the X-Men is intriguing; it's going out on a limb, but after what Jason Aaron and Nick Bradshaw have done so far, I trust them. With Hawkeye, I'm slightly hesitant to pick up an issue knowing David Aja isn't drawing it, but Javier Pulido has the potential to be an ideal temporary substitute.
If I had $30, I'd look back on my $15 and reluctantly put Hawkeye #4 back on the shelf to free up money for Derek Kirk Kim's Tune, Book 1: Vanishing Point (First Second, $16.99). Man oh man, do I love Kim's work, and seeing the previews for this online makes me see a honing of the artist's style akin to the way Bryan O'Malley did between Lost At Sea and Scott Pilgrim. Count me in.
If I could splurge, I'd take a chance on the anthology Digestate (Birdcage Bottom Books, $19.95). I'm no foodie like C.B. Cebulski, but I like food and I like anthologies so this is right up my alley; especially when the chefs include Jeffrey Brown and Liz Prince. Where's my order?

If I had $15, I'd spend the first $3.99 on the first issue of 47 Ronin, a retelling of a Japanese legend written by Mike Richardson and illustrated by Stan Sakai. I saw a preview of this and it looks phenomenal. Next up is my favorite soap opera, Life With Archie #24 ($3.99), in which Moose contemplates running for the Senate and The Archies reunite. This comic is consistently well written and the stories really drag me in. I'll slap down another $3.99 for Popeye #7, because I'm a Roger Langridge fan. And because I love a bargain, I'll finish up with Freelancers #1, a new series from BOOM! Studios that looks kinda fun — and hey, there's a variant cover by Felipe Smith, one of my favorite manga artists.
If I had $30, I'd revert to my childhood and pick up the Doctor Who Annual ($12.99) from Penguin. When I was a kid, the British comics annuals were the high point of the holidays, and I'm pretty sure I have a vintage Doctor Who one tucked away somewhere. It's probably aimed at kids but that just means I can share it with my nephew and nieces.
The splurge item to get this week is the new box set of Hayao Miyazaki's Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind. This is Miyazaki's longest manga by far, and the story continues after the movie ends. It's going to be the same large format as Viz's earlier box set, but the seven volumes are being bound as two this time. It's $60, but I noticed Amazon is offering a steep discount, so I'll add another splurge: Nickolai Dante: Sympathy for the Devil ($29.99), a story that ran in 2000AD. I saw artist Simon Fraser describe it at NYCC this way: "Nikolai Dante is a swashbuckling hero from the far, far future, the year 2666, where he is alternately working for and against the czar, and for his own family and against his family, and in the meantime trying to get as drunk and screw as many women as he possibly can." Sold!
NYCC | A round-up of news from Friday
After a late afternoon opening to the general public on Thursday, the New York Comic Con kicked into high gear today with panels, announcements and the usual con craziness we've come to expect from big shows. Here's a round-up of comic-related news and announcements coming out of Friday. If you missed anything from Thursday, I've also got your back. I'd also point you to Brigid Alverson's rundown of the ICv2 sessions before NYCC that go deep on comic sales in 2011 and 2012 thus far, if you're into that.
• Keith Giffen returns to the stars next year with Threshold, a new DC Comics series that features Blue Beetle, Space Ranger, Star Hawkins, the original Starfire and other space heroes, with a Larfleeze back-up. Giffen also seemingly confirmed that the current Blue Beetle series is coming to an end.
• Vertigo announced several new projects today, including The Wake by Scott Snyder and Sean Murphy, Trillium by Jeff Lemire and an Unwrtten/Fables event that will see the Unwritten characters wander into the Fables comic. Snyder said that American Vampire will go on hiatus after issue #34 so he and artist Rafael Albuquerque can catch up on it. When it returns, it'll jump ahead to the 1960s.
NYCC | A round-up of news from Thursday
The New York Comic Con officially kicked off this afternoon, with fans eager to get inside and publishers eager to begin releasing news into the wild. So let's see if we can't herd some of those announcements together. Here's a round-up from today:
• DC Comics Co-Publisher and artist extraordinaire Jim Lee will team with Batman scribe Scott Snyder on a new Superman title next year, just in time for the Man of Steel's return to the silver screen. "This will play along with the other Superman books in the sense that it's in continuity, but we really wanted to carve out our own territory," Snyder told CBR. "This really is sort of the biggest, most epic Superman story we could do together while having our feet planted firmly in continuity and making sure that everyone had enough room."
DC also unveiled a Kia Optima that features a Batman design by Jim Lee.
• Marvel announced three more Season One graphic novels: Iron Man, written by Howard Chaykin with art by Gerard Parel; Thor by writer Matthew Sturges and artist Pepe Larraz; and Wolverine, written by the team of Ben Blacker and Ben Acker, with art by Salva Espin. Also, Cullen Bunn returns to Deadpool with Deadpool Killustrated, a miniseries that pits the Merc with a Mouth against Moby Dick, Sherlock Holmes, Beowulf, Don Quixote and more. Spoiler alert: he's gonna kill them.
The Middle Ground #121 | Know the signs
Okay, I admit it: I'm sold.
Thing is, I couldn't tell you exactly when I got sold, and that's a strange part of the charm. I can remember enjoying, but not loving, the first issue of the X-O Manowar reboot, and then finding that the new Harbinger was far closer to my sense of a good thing, but it maybe wasn't until Bloodshot that I realized I was — by accident, almost — all in. The new Valiant, it seems, is a cumulative process.

John Parkin
If I had $15: Whoah, another tough week to narrow things down. Is every Brian Wood-written title required to come out the same week of each month? Do Dark Horse and Marvel get together and plan it that way, so that people who only buy Wood comics only have to go to the store once a month? I think more than half the DC titles I buy come out this time every month, too. So yeah, lots to pick from …
Anyway, I'd start with one of those Brian Wood comics, Conan the Barbarian #8 (Dark Horse, $3.50), which features Vasilis Lolos on art. Lolos drew one of my favorite issues of Northlanders, "The Viking Art of Single Combat," so it's cool to see the two of them working together again. I'd also get a comic I'm sure will be popular with a few of my colleagues, the first issue of the new Stumptown miniseries by Greg Rucka and Matthew Southworth (Oni Press, $3.99). Next I'd get Manhattan Projects #6 (Image, $3.50); this issue turns the focus from America's secret science program to Russia's secret science program. Jonathan Hickman and Nick Pitarra are having a lot of fun with this one. Finally, I'd get Uncanny X-Force #31 (Marvel, $3.99), which really picked things up last issue … and this is a comic that's usually running on twice as many cylinders anyway.
If I had $30, I'd also grab two finales from DC Comics — Shade #12 and Resurrection Man #0 (both $2.99). Honestly, I never expected to see a Resurrection Man comic again, much less by the guys who wrote the original, so the fact that we got a good run of 13 issues is a pleasant surprise. Shade, of course, was planned as 12 issues from the beginning, and was a nice return to the Starman-verse by writer James Robinson. That leaves me room for three more $2.99 comics, which means I'm going to bypass X-Men, The Massive and Avengers Assemble this week (let's assume that I'll one day spend my splurge money on the trades) and instead go with Chew #28 (Image, $2.99), It Girl and the Atomics #2 (Image, $2.99) and Demon Knights #0 (DC Comics, $2.99).
Splurge: Assuming I wouldn't spend my unlimited gift card on single issues, I'd be looking at the first Bucko collection from Dark Horse ($19.99) and Fantagraphics' Is That All There Is? trade ($25).

Chris Mautner
If I had $15, I'd buy Boys #70 (only two issues until the big finale) and Classic Popeye #2, IDW Publishing's ongoing series of reprints devoted to Bud Sagendorf comics from the 1940s, as the first issue was much more fun than I expected it to be.
If I had $30, I'd put those comics back, but would be stuck between a couple of books. The first would be Aya: Life in Yop City, which collects the three previous Aya books by Marguerite Abouet and Clement Oubrerie in one volume. These are great, funny comics, full of life and observation regarding a culture — in this case African culture — most Westerners know nothing about.
There's also A Chinese Life, a massive doorstop of a memoir by Chinese artist Li Kunwu (with help from writer Philippe Otie) chronicling his life and times. Kunwu lives through some of modern China's most tumultuous periods, including the Cultural Revolution, and hopefully his book will, like Aya, humanize a time and culture that for many is just a few lines in their history book.
Finally, there's Message to Adolph, Vol. 1, one of Tezuka's final works, set during World War II, about three people named Adolph, one a Jew, the other a German boy living in Japan, and the third the fuhrer himself. Originally published by Viz about two decades ago, Vertical has taken it upon themselves to put out a newly translated version which is great news for those that missed this great manga the first time around.
Is there a greater splurge purchase this week that Dal Tokyo, the collected version of Gary Panter's off-kilter comic strip? I plugged this book last week, but it deserves another one. I've been waiting for this book for awhile.
For the scholarly comics type, the splurge of the week might be Crockett Johnson and Ruth Krauss, a look at the creator of Barnaby and Harold and the Purple Crayon and his wife, a children's author with whom he frequently collaborated.
Read comics all weekend without breaking the bank
With Labor Day weekend upon us, now is a good time to stock the virtual longbox with some digital comics. We reported the other day that Image has made 20 of its #1 issues free on comiXology; here's a roundup of some other free' n' cheap digital comics to check out over the holiday.
Centsless Books is a website that rounds up all the free Kindle books on Amazon, and it has a dedicated section for comics and graphic novels. There's a preview of Batman: Earth One up there, and a lot of first issues of different indy series. Some of the graphic novels aren't really — at least one book I checked was prose not a graphic novel, and Little Nemo's Wild Sleigh Ride is a picture book that uses Winsor McCay's illustrations (which are in the public domain). Well worth checking out, especially if you're a First Second fan, are the two Between the Panels books, which are promotional pieces put out by Macmillan, with creator essays, character sketches and side stories, all related to different First Second graphic novels. Aside from that, it's a pretty mixed bag, but one that looks like it will be fun to rummage around in. These Kindle comics will also work on the Kindle iPad and Android apps.
Infinity is a free iPad fanzine from Panel Nine, which has published Eddie Campbell's Dapper John and David Lloyd's Kickback as standalone iPad apps. The inaugural issue includes an interview with Lloyd, a preview of Dapper John, a roundup of digital-comics news, a couple of app reviews, art by Simon Russell, and an interview with PJ Holden, the creator of Murderdrome, a short comic that was booted from the iTunes store for being too violent (it's actually a spoof). It's a nice collection and well worth the effort of clicking that iTunes button.

Graeme McMillan
I don't know quite why, considering I've been feeling cynical and disinterested in the DC Universe over the past couple of weeks, but I find myself tempted by both Flash Annual #1 and Justice League International Annual #1 (both DC Comics; $4.99) this week; something even more surprising considering I haven't been following the JLI series past trying out the first issue. And yet, if I had $15 this week, I suspect I'd be using a chunk of it for that. I'd also grab Joe Hill and Gabriel Hernandez' Locke & Key: Grindhouse (IDW Publishing, $3.99), because, well, Locke & Key is a very, very good comic book.
If I had $30, I may find myself picking up the first collection of Peter Panzerfaust (Vol. 1: The Great Escape; Image Comics; $14.99) because I like the high concept behind it even if I managed to miss the single issues. People who did pick it up in singles: Is it the kind of thing I'd like, do you think?
Should I find the money and ability to splurge, I find myself surprisingly drawn to Dark Horse's Star Wars Omnibus: Clone Wars Vol. 1 ($24.99); I blame people in my Twitter feed talking about Star Wars Celebration last week, and my thinking, "I haven't really kept up with Star Wars in ages" in response. Does that count as peer pressure?

Chris Arrant
If I had $15, it'd be an eclectic bunch featuring Jesus clones, retired spec-ops workers, environmentalists and Batman. First up would be Punk Rock Jesus #2 (DC/Vertigo, $2.99), following Sean Murphy's big-time foray into writing and drawing. Murphy's delivering the art of his career, and while the story might not be as great as the art, it still has a synchronicity to the art that few other mainstream books have these days. After that I'd get Dancer #4 (Image, $3.50); Nathan Edmondson seemingly made his name on writing the spy thriller Who Is Jake Ellis?, and this one takes a very different view of the spy game – like a Luc Besson movie, perhaps – and Nic Klein is fast climbing up my list of favorite artists. After that I'd get Massive #3 (Dark Horse, $3.50), with what is disheartedly looking to be the final issue of artist Kristian Donaldson. No word on the reason for the departure, but with a great a story he and Brian Wood have developed I hope future artists can live up to the all-too-brief legacy he developed. Delving into superhero waters, the next book I'd get is Batman #12 (DC, $3.99), which has become DC's consistently best book out of New 52 era. Finally, I'd get Anti #1 (12 Guage, $1). Cool cover, interesting concept, and only a buck. Can't beat that.
If I had $30, I'd jump and get Creator-Owned Heroes #3 (Image, $3.99); man, when Phil Noto is "on" he's "ON!" After that I'd get Conan te Barbarian #7 (Dark Horse, $3.50). I've been buying and reading this in singles, but last weekend I had the chance to re-read them all in one sitting and I'm legitimately blown away. The creators have developed something that is arguably better than what Kurt Busiek and Cary Nord started in 2003 and shoulder-to-shoulder with the great stories out of the '70s. This new issue looks to be right up my alley, as Conan takes his pirate queen Belit back to his frigid homeland in search of a man masquerading as Conan. Hmm, $7 left. Any other Food or Comic-ers want to grab some grub?
If I could splurge, I'd excuse myself from the table dining with my fellow FoCers and get Eyes of the Cat HC (Humanoids, $34.95). I feel remiss in never owning this, so finally getting my hands on the first collaboration between Moebius and Alexandro Jodorowsky seems like a long time coming. I'm told its more an illustrated storybook than comic book, but I'm content with full page Moebius work wherever I can get it.

Craft Brewers Alliance To Present At The 14th Annual ICR XChange Conference
Craft Brewers Alliance, Inc. ("CBA") (Nasdaq: HOOK), an independent craft brewing company, today announced chief executive officer, Terry Michaelson, president of commercial operations, Andy Thomas, and chief financial officer, Mark Moreland, will present at the 14th Annual ICR XChange Conference on Wednesday, January 11, 2012 at 3:40 p.m. ET at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami, FL.

About Craft Brewers Alliance
CBA is an independent, publicly traded craft brewing company that was formed with the merger of leading Pacific Northwest craft brewers – Widmer Brothers Brewing and Redhook Ale Brewery – in 2008. With an eye toward preserving one-of-a-kind beers and brands by giving them an opportunity to shine and grow, CBA was joined by Kona Brewing Company in 2010. When Kurt & Rob Widmer founded Widmer Brothers Brewing in 1984, they didn't confine their brewing exploration to strict style guidelines. To this day, Widmer Brothers continues to create craft beers with a unique and unconventional twist on traditional styles that are award winning and please a wide range of craft beer lovers. Redhook began in a Seattle transmission shop in 1981, and those colorful roots are reflected in the brand's personality to this day. The eminently drinkable beers consistently win awards and please crowds across the United States. Kona Brewing was founded in 1994 by the father and son team of Cameron Healy and Spoon Khalsa, who dreamed of crafting fresh, local island brews with spirit, passion and quality. As the largest craft brewery in Hawaii, Kona personifies the laid-back, passionate lifestyle and environmental respect of the Hawaiian people and culture.

August 20, 1918–May 13, 2004
EVON ZARTMAN VOGT, JR.—"Vogtie" to his friends and countless generations of students—was a modest and unassuming scholar who nevertheless managed to transform the entire field of Maya ethnography, altering our views of both the ancient and modern Maya in the process. Vogt did so by spending 35 years among the Tzotzil Maya of Zinacantan in Chiapas, Mexico. His enormous dataset led him to generate new insights about how communities change over time while conserving and maintaining many traditions. His comprehensive analyses of Maya ritual, religion, kinship, social organization, and settlement pattern will link his name forever to Zinacantan and the Tzotzil.
Vogtie was a mentor and role model for me, and for many other students, during his 41 years of teaching at Harvard. In retirement (1989-2004) he remained generous, gregarious, gracious, and more prolific than most scholars half his age.
Vogt's father, Evon Z. Vogt, Sr., was born into an American family of Swiss and German descent in Upper Sandusky, Ohio, in 1880. In 1892 the family moved to Dayton, Ohio. Vogt Sr. attended the University of Chicago until his senior
