Alex went through Blacklight puberty.So by the time we see Elizabeth Greene for the first time, she's been infected for about, eh, 40 or 50 years, depending on when Prototype 1 takes place. We have no idea what she was like for the first few years. (There is a Web of Intrigue node that talks about Greene staying in one place for a very long time and not decaying, which might debunk this theory if it mentions the specific amount of time she's been sitting there — I cannot recall the exact figure.) She might have maintained her own personality for the first few years, then... then the urge to reproduce started to emerge, like a human going through puberty. What if the same thing happened to Alex? What if the Black/Redlight life cycle involves amassing as much organic material as possible over the course of a year, then spending it all on spreading itself extremely quickly? If Alex had survived for a few more years, I bet he'd have developed pale, blotchy skin and a Voice of the Legion. And the same thing will happen to Heller, too...
Alex was influenced by all the assholes he had consumed.Think about it, the Blacklight Mercer became an anti-heroic savior who was willing to die to save the city. However, he's also got the brains of thousands of the most evil people on Earth up in his brainpan. Perhaps, unconsciously, having that many psychopaths and sociopaths influenced his apathy and eventual hate for humanity. Basically, it's like schizophrenia, but with the voices numbering in the thousands and all of them saying pretty much the same thing.
The crow Alex consumed from the previous game will be a Chekhov's Gunman.We all know that Prototypes are capable of consuming biomass, skills and memories of others; for god sakes, they can even disguise as them, so it shouldn't be surprise to actually have an ability belonging to an animal, such as flight.
James Heller and Alex Mercer are one and the same person.Think about it.
Heller's call-sign will be "Prometheus"Prometheus stole fire from the king of the god's, Zeus. Alex's call-sign in the first game was Zeus. Heller got his power's from being infected with Alex's Blacklight virus- metaphorically stealing his fire. Therefore, his codename is Prometheus in the interests of thematic consistency.
James will unknowingly be manipulated by Alex and Blackwatch.
Alex would gain James' upgrades, tendrils, and biobomb powers if he absorbs him.Just how obviously powerful he has become. Unlike in the first game, where Alex only unlocks his powers and doesn't get any powerful, James would not only unlock his powers, but also would get upgrades.
Alex is not present by the moment James almost died fighting against the infection.Alex planned on having James set up the fights in the Red Zone, so unless it is confirmed that he did infect him for a reason, he is not present in the moment where James is almost crushed by a falling debris of a building.
Alex infected James so that he could be his Legacy Character.The truth is he can't just take down Blackwatch by himself as they would grow more and more powerful alert of him if the infection keeps up on spreading.
Alex's plot of spreading Blacklight beyond NYZ is perfect to take down Blackwatch.For my opinion, it's obvious that Blackwatch would stop fighting if the infection is stopped.
Death is responsible for Heller's near-death experience.Oh, I don't know. A survivor of Flight 180 or Route 23 maybe? It would seem he can't kill him by the virus monsters; all his entire life, he cheated Death, even from a war at overseas. He then uses Heller's fight to cause his death. Of course, Alex has foiled it by infecting him. Due to the fact that Heller has become a monster that could never die, he is removed from Death's list.
Mercer created Heller to help him level grind.Let's say Mercer wants to be stronger than he already is, possibly to escape NY, bring down Blackwatch or a similar major task. But his drive is gone. He's fulfilled his main goal, he's got his revenge and now he's just not determined enough to do it all by himself. Enter James Heller. Suddenly, there's another viral megamutant out there, with insane destructive powers and a thirst for revenge. And when Heller's been a wanted mutant for a couple of weeks, it might only take a good Hannibal Lecture to bring him over onto Alex's side. Alternatively, one will consume the other, massively increasing the other's power. No matter what happens, there's at least one megamutant left with the power to do whatever Alex was planning.
Greene is still alive.Basically, the thing Alex consumed was a duplicate created by Greene. She was capable of coherent speech and some complex planning, she'd have a bit more in her head than just random haze like the other infected. She could have even been hiding inside another part of her One-Winged Angel, waiting for Alex to nom the duplicate before crawling back into the sewers and going dormant. Redlight is patient remember, she might just sit there until Blackwatch is gone and the city is completely clean before spreading The Virus again.
Dana Mercer's role.According to Ken Rosman, she is set to appear for Prototype 2. Here are the suggestions of her role:
The reason Mercer infected Heller is...
The reason Barry Pepper doesn't reprise as the voice of Alex Mercer in Prototype 2 is...
Karen Parker's fate.Ken Rosman also planned on stating of her fate. The most likely fate for her is that she survived against Alex because he doesn't get a Web of Intrigue information from her and doesn't took on her form.
Alex Mercer boss fight theories.Since that it is stated that he is the Big Bad of this game, here are some theories of how the boss fight will come to be.
Heller never wanted to die.
Blackwatch plans on having Heller die.It's because they resent the fact that he survives longer than them against the Blacklight Virus. While in a suicide mission, one of the tanks fire a building, causing the big piece of it to come crashing onto Heller.
Heller is going to consume Dana Mercer and Dr. RaglandAlex spent most of the first game hunting down and consuming anybody who might have even the slightest bit of information on Mc Mullen. Heller is going to be looking on information on Mercer. It makes sense that they'd be Web of Intrigue targets.
Alex Mercer will die for real in Prototype 2.According to the Blackwatch trailer, the briefing states that they thought he died from the Blacklight Virus, but they're wrong. It is assumed he is destroyed from placing the nuke to the river, but they're wrong. With another Blacklight being around thanks to Alex, maybe he'll die this time.
There will be a Bittersweet Ending.I know Activision and Radical Entertainment almost always make games with happy endings, but for Prototype 2, the ending would happy but with sad elements. Here are the suggestions:
Alex Mercer is still alive.I'm talking about the real Alex Mercer, the one who created the Blacklight Virus and unleashed it out of pure spite. I know this sounds crazy, but have you noticed the thing about Heller being infected with the Blacklight Virus instead of dying from it? It has the ability to resurrect the dead, although for Heller's case, he's almost in death. Let me preface this and say that there is no second living Alex Mercer. Major spoilers for Prototype2 note
The Big Bad of Prototype 2 will be a new top official of Blackwatch.What he's planning for Alex and James is that he uses the former's research to produce more of the monsters and is really more brutal than General Randall.
Alex Mercer infected Heller to create a dragon.Alex created the red zone as a test. The goal: find the toughest man in the military/Blackwatch to infect. This man is given Alex's powers at a low level and forced to evolve by fighting other infected so he will know both what the infected are capable of and what their weaknesses are. The reason this isn't being done in an arena setting: this isn't merely a bodyguard or a faster way for Alex to grow stronger. Heller is going to be his general. Additionally, at the end of the game, Alex will offer Heller his family back, and the player will have a choice: join Alex, or consume him.
James Heller never existed.It's all a dying dream by Alex who actually died in the explosion of a nuke. He just dreamed of stopping the virus.
Alex Mercer created Heller so that Heller could kill him.It seems to me that Alex started to gain something resembling a conscious by the end of the game. Now, we don't know when Heller came back to find his wife and daughter dead. It could have been during the game, in the middle of Alex's rather lengthy rampage phase. I think Mercer is feeling the weight of his new conscious and all those memories and has decided the world is better off without him. Problem: short of finding another nuke for the military to throw at him, nothing seems capable of doing that. So what does he do? Find a man of moral fiber (well, more moral that Mercer was) and a good honest-to-god reason the loathe him utterly., inject him with an upgraded version version of Blacklight, leave him alone for a while to gain power, and boom. Suicide By Eldritch Abomination.
The Alex Mercer in Prototype 2 is the real Alex Mercer.In the original Prototype the protagonist was really the Blacklight virus made sentinent. The true Alex Mercer was a ruthless bastard that caused the infection out of spite. So lets say that Blackwatch developed a weapon to kill Alex and instead wiped out the mind and personality of the Blacklight virus, the one with the ability to actually have guilt and doubt. In the rebooted version is the original Alex Mercer, the narcissistic sociopath now let loose upon New York.
Alex Mercer has taken control of the virus to protect Dana.Dana could be infected or still comatose, either way Alex is going to want to protect her. So he takes over the infected, builds this massive hive thing in the middle of other hive things, stocks it full of guard zombies, and sticks Dana in the middle to keep her safe. If she's infected, he controls her so she stays there and doesn't die. If she's comatose, he keeps her there so she'll be protected when she wakes. His control keeps the infected from eating her. He only does this because he either has hope she'll wake up normal (if comatose) or because he can't bring himself to kill what he considers his own sister (if zombified).
Alex is having a three way split personality fight between Blacklight Alex, Elizabeth Green, and Supreme Hunter CrossBy the end of the first game he had killed two other Blacklight infected humans that had similar abilities to himself. It could be possible that Blacklight Alex is becoming insane after doing so and is losing control of his mind to Elizabeth or Cross who were planning to infect the whole world with the virus. He could have infected Heller to put an end to himself before he did something he could regret, and He couldn't just get gunned down by any random mook because of the chance that Blackwatch would take his corpse in and start the mess all over again by using his body as research.
Alex is the one who secretly gives Heller his missions.Unlike him, who gets his missions from person to person, Heller gets his missions at the Blackwatch computer. How did he get all this information from this device? Here's the thing: Alex secretly hacked into it and gives information of the virus to be fought.
Alex infected Heller so he could kill DanaDana will have turned out to have been infected when she was kidnapped in the first game. Now she'll take over Greene's posistion as hive queen. Mercer can't bring himself to kill her. So he makes someone who can- Heller.
There is more than one Alex Mercer out thereOkay we say at the end of the first game that Mercer can regenerate from even a tiny scrap of flesh. But maybe multiple scraps regenerated. In this way Radical could do an evil Mercer, and still be able to bring him back for later games.
Heller will come back as a disinterested third party for the next game.He's got a reason to not go the same path as Mercer did (his daughter's still alive) so he'll probably try to keep a low profile, tending to his own business and whatnot. Perhaps a plot point will involve him getting forced out of retirement in order to protect his interests.
Heller will be the villain of the third game.Just to establish a continuing Running Gag for the series.
The influence of Elizabeth Greene inside Alex Mercer is what contributed to Mercer's similar Hive-Mind spreading tendencies.Elizabeth Greene wanted to spread the Redlight lifeform under her control. After eating her and getting disappointed past a point of no return, Mercer wants to spread the Blacklight lifeform under his control. All with a similar topping-the-food-chain pretext.
The Alex Mercer in this game is not the Player Character from the first gameIt had to be said. Besides, a few things are left suspiciously vague, such as why he infected Heller. There was no way Heller could further Mercer's plan by having him infected. And why is there a video with him in the center of the shot, in his Shapeshifter Default Form, releasing the virus at Penn Station?
'Heller' is a Meaningful NameFollowing a similar line of thought as the MRSA = Mercer theory, the name 'Heller' sounds an awful lot like 'He La', an immortal cell line used in scientific research which because of horizontal gene transfer is essentially a hybrid between human cells and a virus. It's also known for being difficult to control and having a tendency to contaminate things.
Alex Mercer consumed Albert Wesker between gamesYou've gotta admit it explains a lot.
Alex Mercer being the villain will be Retconned or be subjected to an Author's Saving Throw.The negative reception to the ending will make it so that they're going to end up ignoring all the tie-in novels and other things that explain Mercer's change in character and try out an alternate explanation.
The more heroic Alex Mercer most people identify as in the first game does exist.In the form of the Alex Mercer skin for Heller. Which sort of a sister theory to the ones about Alex clones. Either that, or Heller activates the skin after consuming Alex and thus completing story mode as a sort of trophy. Or something.
The Evolved in Gentek and Blackwatch are responsible for the lower number of virus detectors in this game.In the original game, the D-Codes and UAVs both could detect the virus, and by endgame all military bases had multiple overlapping detectors, making it hard to get inside a base without setting off the alarms at least once. Yet in 2, the Orions can't tell who is infected, and the UAVs don't have one on board either. Also, despite the fact virus detectors cannot be sabotaged, there usually aren't enough to provide as much coverage as the detectors in 1. Since the Evolved were infiltrating Blackwatch and Gentek, it would be in their interests to try and keep the amount of things that could detect the virus as low as possible.
There will be a legit Five-Man Band in Prototype 3 (if it comes out)To list things up: Mercer was pretty much on his own, Heller had only 2 allies with him at the end (3 if you count Rooks as a potential ally), so why not an actual team in the sequel? By my estimate, the following will go as this
Alex survived the final battle thanks to Ragland, who was purposefully remaining concealed as part of a back-up plan.Ragland is a doctor who helped Mercer in the past, knows a great deal about the various viruses, and already helped Alex heal from one crippling injury. As such, if there was one person by this point who could be trusted to ensure Mercer survived his final battle with Heller, with Dana having switched sides and his Evolved being used for a quick power-up, it would be him. So, Ragland would have needed only a small amount of Biomass, and with Heller tearing off arms all over the place he would have easily been able to find it. Since Alex was able to reform himself from a crow, it shouldn't take too long for him to get back on his feet, start licking his wounds, and possibly preparing for round two.
Mercer infected Heller to help him stop a bigger enemy. Pariah.Including the consuming part. Regardless of who consumed who, Alex knew that the victor would stand a better chance of fighting Pariah.
"Mercer" was actually Supreme Hunter who survived the first game.We saw the thing recover from being completely liquefied. It's clear that "mere" decapitation couldn't do more harm. It was never caught in the nuclear blast and instead was left out of sight - long enough to recover and escape. It then went into hiding, consuming people here and there by one, and then grew strong enough to either catch and consume Mercer, or become able to take his shape and powers basing on part on DNA it inherited from him. With the original dead or gone from NY in search of Pariah, Supreme Hunter took his likelihood in order to frame him (and be of more humanoid shape to cooperate with people easier) and started the mess again. This kinda explains "Supreme Mercer"'s new traits such as the ability to infect people, spread the virus directly from his mass and control all infected (inherited from Greene), strategical scheming (inherited from Cross, whose manipulations in the first game came close to Xanatos Gambit), totally egoistical, megalomaniac personality (its own contribution) and the fact that all infection suddenly started glowing like molten metal (Redlight, get it?).
Mercer's form may have been the one Heller fights, but he isn't doing this of his own free will.The Anchor is broad strokes canon. In-between the two games, Alex and Ragland travelled across the world not just for Alex to better connect with humanity, but to get rid of any remaining traces of Blacklight, and ensure nothing like Greene happens again. During this time, Alex ends up confronting PARIAH... and just beats and consumes him. In fact, he does it TOO easily. In truth, after Alex consumes him, PARIAH procedes to suppress Alex's personality and kills and consumes Ragland to drive Mercer over the Despair Event Horizon. Alex only maintains enough willpower to make sure PARIAH doesn't hurt Dana, while the son of Greene uses his form as a scapegoat for the NYZ infection. Cue Heller, who PARIAH merely sees as a potential Evolved, but who Alex ends up seeing as his shot at stopping PARIAH, even if he, himself, must die. Note: This Troper has only played the first game, and got the info for all other material from here and Youtube.
Everything went exactly as Alex planned...What's the first thing Heller does after he consumes Alex? He unleashes a Devastator attack so massive that it spans throughout all of Manhattan and, possibly, all of NYZ. Effectively wiping out the Redlight virus. To do something like that, Heller would need a massive amount of bio-mass. Like say, the collective bio-mass of an entire army of evolved that Mercer just happened to absorb before his final fight with Heller thus giving Heller one big juicy meal to chow down on. Not to mention all the other Evolved Mercer sent after Heller or lured Heller to despite the fact that Heller was clearly more powerful than any of Mercer's army. And having sleeper agents in Blackwatch doing all of those experiments? Those projects he had his agents do either helped Heller become more powerful in some way or lured Heller to massive Blackwatch projects that, once Heller went all apesh*t on them, would have severely hurt Blackwatch. In the end, Mercer needed Heller to be the one to gain all the bio-mass both of them, as well as the evolved, accumulated over the course of the past two games because Heller had, and I quote, "Resilient DNA". That whole plan to march on humanity with an army of Evolved? Kinda hard to do that when you just ATE your army. And having Heller's daughter become 'the queen of the new world'? Just a way to lure Heller to their final battle. A way to make Heller hate him. Alex wanted Heller to hate him... because he wanted Heller to kill him.
Both Blacklight and Redlight were created using information collected from a Marker...And Greene, Mercer, and Heller were the makings of a Brethren Moon. I mean look at the viral biomass and compare it to the biomass left behind by a Necromorph outbreak. They are very similar in appearance, to say nothing of Mercer's plan...
Part of Alex wanted to die.Just hear me out on this one. During the final battle, amongst his constant taunts, Alex is also giving you advice on how to beat him, hinting at which powers to use and how to avoid his attacks. Not to mention "Welcome to the top of the food chain."
Mercer isn't completely dead.After consuming so many people and infected, he learned how to preserve consciousness in the event that he gets consumed and take control from within. If there's a next game, Alex will resurface through Heller a la Grand Theft Me.

I've heard that the flying sausage scene wasn't that epic in the manga, were there any other changes(even minor ones) in the story?

☆♥☆In the beginning when Nano ran into that guy, in the manga she was running to school, not chasing her breakfast. In fact, the anime seems to imply she isn't going to school yet, in the manga she was already friends with other girls from the beginning. Also, there was a scene involving Sasahara before the school assembly scene, so finding out he's not really rich is bit more of a surprise. Other than that, it was mostly just adding small scenes not in the manga (or were a lot later than I read), like the one with Mai and her dog, and the fire alarm one (which I think was my favorite part of the episode).

Well, I liked it well enough to start a thread for it. Which seems to have disappeared Still find it interesting how different it is from the episode 0 OVA
Nothing exists but you. And you are but a thought
Nano's big toe looks like a USB drive. Merchandise possibilities? I guess....it's okay. I didn't laugh out loud at any of the scenes, though. Yukko reminds me of a less stupid Tomo, and the professor girl reminds me of Rebecca... I'll keep watching for now, but I was hoping this would be funnier. Right now it comes off as wacky for wackiness' sake. The animation is quite pretty though. The OP and ED sequences are also really nice.

I Dare You Not to Yawn
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
what a great book
We liked the humour in this story. The boy does not want to yawn and be put to bed, but he keeps thinking of things that make you yawn like counting sheep and by the end has been put to bed. We would recommend this book to a friend.
Not ready for bed? Well here are some tips for you. Prevent that yawn by avoiding all snuggle things, lullabies, and visual reminders. Most importantly, don't let mom see!
Each yawn is depicted with a wide-mouthed face, and while the style seems unrefined, it lends itself well to these funny, bold expressions.
Like the narrator suggests, yawns are sneaky, but the book is too. As it describes these ways to escape bedtime, the little boy gradually succumbs, until finally he lets out one huge double-page spread of a yawn. Likewise, children will get pulled along, provided the parent supplies some big yawn sounds of course.
We liked this book because it was hard not to yawn while listening to the story- mom yawned lots during this story- we liked all the things that the boy did to not yawn and he went to bed anyways!
every page made me yawn. just thinking about it makes me yawn! great story.

What happens when eight journalists are picked to live in a house for 12 hours with no cell phones, Blackberries or contact with their news desks? Well, let me give you a hint — it wasn't pretty!
I'm not what you would consider a homebody. However, I spend my life at my computer banging out copy for editorial deadlines. So when I have free time, I'm not fond of spending it in close quarters with random people.
So why in the world I offered to spend twelve hours locked in a house with eight strangers for 12 hours on the set of CBS's reality game show Big Brother where contestants from all walks of life go head to head through psychologically grueling and sometimes physically demanding challenges to battle for the title of "Head of Household" is beyond me. Especially since I, unlike the real contestants, wasn't competing for the $500,000 prize. I must have been having a frivol

In the hit matchmaking reality show, 15 women and 15 men compete for the affections of the bisexual cyber-pinup. "Welcome to my crib," Tequila says, as she bops across the bright, multicolored entrance hall. "Let me give you a tour."
In case you've never heard of Tequila (and there are a few adults who haven't), here's a quick introduction: Born Tila Nguyen in Singapore to Vietnamese parents, Tila Tequila is the 26-year-old Texas runaway turned lad-mag-cover model who rose to fame by racking up more than a million friends on MySpace.

Rosie O'Donnell versus Donald Trump. The Celebrity Apprentice's Omarosa versus Piers Morgan. TV is known for its famous feuds, and as the 4.7 million fans who tuned in to the midseason premiere of MTV's reality hit The Hills (Mondays at 10 pm/ET, MTV) can attest, the trouble between Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag is shaping up to be the best prime-time battle yet. Things have been icy between the former roommates since last year (when Heidi and her boyfriend Spencer Pratt reportedly leaked to the press that Lauren had made a sex tape). And in the next two weeks, it gets worse. The bad blood begins again as Heidi reaches out to Lauren's roommate Audrina Patridge. Meanwhile, Lauren befriends Stephanie Pratt, Spencer's sister and Heidi's pal. Heidi doesn't think that's a coincidence: "That is a war move. I don't think she randomly likes Stephanie." For her part, Lauren is miffed about Audrina hanging

Self-proclaimed "big kid" Jack Black returns to risk the slime on the Kids' Choice Awards (March 29 at 8 pm/ET), the annual Nickelodeon event honoring the year's biggest movies, musicians, sports figures, television shows, videos and books, as voted by the kids. He previously hosted the show in 2006, and apparently hasn't learned his lesson. TVGuide.com: Why do you think Nick asked you back?Jack Black: When they ask you back, that means you hit it out of the park the first time. They want some more of that Jack Black flavor. I figured they tried with other people, and they said, "No, no, no. Jack Black's where the flavor is. Enough with the Timberlake ridiculousness. [Laughs] Jack's the real rock 'n' roll. It's the 'Black Attack.'"

With 23 million viewers, The Moment of Truth (Wednesdays, 9 pm/ET, Fox) garnered the highest-rated series debut in over a year — and the numbers don't lie. Here are some more cold, hard facts about the new Fox hit that asks lie-detector-tested contestants to put their reputations on the line by answering increasingly more personal (and more embarrassing) questions, for a chance at $500,000.
FACT: To come up with each player's 21 questions, producers dig deep. Contestants' friends and family are interrogated thoroughly. "They research your whole life," says Christie Youssef, 22, who admitted she's a virgin in the second episode. "I didn't have any idea of the scope until afterward."
FACT: No player has been fired because of something they revealed on the show. At least not yet. That could change after emergency medical technician Aaron Du

I can answer some of these for Northgate, we go over to their IMS in February 2010.
Had a Q&A 1:1 with them recently.
Some FACTUAL pros and cons:
1. What happens to the Network managers?
Carries on working as Network Manager, in school, over the IT techs, under one of their team leaders.
2. What happens to creativity and development (as opposed to just having one system, hardware, software foisted upon us)?
Creativity? That's all good, but bear in mind, everything you create at Northgate, Northgate own. Development, they reportedly develop a lot of their tools in-house.
3. What happens regarding other - not IT - jobs we do around school?
Carry on doing them if they add value to the contract. i.e. teaching how to use projector saves us much time in callouts.
4. What about help desk (is it local to school or based in India)?
Not local to school, but not in India either :P
5. How much access and freedom do the remaining IT staff have?
**Hearsay warning** Internet may be monitored at LEA level, from what I hear. Don't yet know more than that. **Hearsay warning**
6. How many redundancies have been made (either by economic reasons or change of conditions)?
Very few, fresh employment opportunities being created - managerial for the most part.
7. What new opportunities are opended up (I don't mean moving on up the managed service provider)?
Training is offered where there is a perceived shortage, or where it benefits your current role.
8. If there are any Network Managers left in BSF schools are they supported and allowed to stay - or are they "encouraged" to move on or up?
Network Manager is a required position, but I can't imagine there's all that much to do, even purchasing is done entirely via Northgate's catalogue (except in case of unplanned & immediate need).
10. During the Interim service do things remain the same or do new systems, software and hardware get forced on us?
Looks like things remain the same, for the Interim, with the additional of their call logging software
11. How are hours, holidays and salaries affected?
Hours unknown yet (we do flexi time atm, but it's not written in our T&Cs), holidays and salary will be the same, (possibility for more flexibility on holidays? - we're not allowed more than 1 consecutive day off during term time atm)
12. How are the remaining IT staff supported (local, remote only)?
Remote centre, callouts available, also help from technicians in nearby schools on offer.
13. What sort of improvement (or worsening) of service is provided by having EVERY IT call routing through a possibly foreign helpdesk?
They say we should still respond to adhoc queries and that calls can be logged retrospectively by teachers/ourselves.

HOUSTON (CBS Houston)Texas state health officials are urging people to take precautions to reduce the risk of contracting West Nile virus, after the state confirmed its first case of the illness for the season.
In a report released Friday, The Texas Department of State Health Services stated that the first case of the West Nile illness of the season was confirmed in an adult male from Anderson County.
Reports indicate that the man is recovering from the neuroinvasive form of the disease. There were no other details released about the man.
Last year, Texas reported 1,868 human cases of West Nile illness as well as 89 deaths From the disease.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,"… "last year ranked as the second worst outbreak of neuroinvasive, non–neuroinvasive, and total West Nile virus (WNV) disease cases reported since WNV was first detected in the United States in 1999. The largest number of WNV cases was reported during 2003."
The CDC also recommends removing standing water that is left outside, repairing screens on doors, and wearing repellent with the ingredient "DEET" in it.
"West Nile virus (WNV) is a potentially serious illness,experts believe WNV is established as a seasonal epidemic in North America that flares up in the summer and continues into the fall," as stated on the CDC website.
The CDC also outlines some of the more severe symptoms of West Nile individuals may experience: "About one in 150 people infected with WNV will develop severe illness. The severe symptoms can include high fever, headache, neck stiffness, stupor, disorientation, coma, tremors, convulsions, muscle weakness, vision loss, numbness and paralysis. These symptoms may last several weeks, and neurological effects may be permanent," as stated by the CDC.

I have already put plenty of money into my Keezer project and I still don't even have two of the three Perlick taps I need....
I have seen drip trays for $50-$75 and this is over budget I feel for this....
I have seen Stainless steal mud trays for as little as $12, But I was hoping to find something a little more professional looking but not quite to the tune of $50.
Does anyone know of a good place to find a 12 inch stainless steel drip tray? Or something that looks at least better than the 12 inch mud trays?
could you make this work? http://www.ebay.com/itm/drip-tray-su...item20cb9c886f
Primary- AHS our special holiday ale mini mash
Secondary- Northern brewer oatmeal stout mini mash
On tap- Redhook Esb clone

^^^^Was just going to link the same eBay seller above. I bought a longer one from the same seller and am very happy with it.
Go to Barproducts.com and search drip tray. They have a SS one that is 19" long for under $20...I have it and it is great...no leaks at all
For the price...you could even cut it and bend it so you will have a 12" one
I used a piece of copper gutter that came off my folks' house. Soldered on a 1/2" drain copper pipe for a drain and good to go.

North Carolina's well-organized, grass-roots effort to enroll the uninsured has attracted national attention for its effectiveness despite decisions by state lawmakers to resist implementation of the Affordable Care Act.
As of March 1, North Carolina had enrolled more than 200,000 people for coverage through the federal marketplace. That was the third-highest enrollment among the 36 states that chose to use the federal website instead of creating its own state-run marketplace. Among all states, North Carolina was fifth-highest in enrollments.
Why has North Carolina done so much better than other states where lawmakers have not embraced the federal law? An article at Healthinsurance.org, an independent website offering consumer information on affordable health and medical coverage, attempted to answer that.
It credits a public-private partnership among health care providers, social service agencies and other community leaders that "took an all-hands-on-deck" approach and has steadily worked to enroll people since the Oct. 1 launch.
"There's a lot of people doing a lot of great work," said Sorien Schmidt, state director of Enroll America, a nonprofit group working with other social service agencies to enroll the uninsured.
North Carolina has more than 600 trained "navigators" and certified application counselors working on outreach and enrollment for a variety of agencies, including Charlotte-based North Carolina MedAssist, Legal Services of the Southern Piedmont and C.W. Williams Community Health Center.
The groups established a toll-free phone number (855-733-3711) that consumers could call to get appointments for in-person enrollment assistance anywhere in the state.
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina, one of two private insurers offering policies through the federal exchange in North Carolina, opened retail stores, including two in Charlotte, and sent a mobile van to community events across the state to offer easier access for the uninsured.
Schmidt said her staff of 14 and several hundred volunteers have collected names and phone numbers of 8,000 North Carolina residents who have expressed interest in getting insurance, and they've been trying to contact every one. Enroll America representatives, in partnership with other groups, have fanned out across the state.
"We have been anywhere and everywhere that someone wants to talk," Schmidt said. "Parking lots of Food Lion groceries, YMCAs, churches."
Schmidt said Monday is not the end of the process. "We came in knowing that it was going to take more than one open-enrollment period. It takes a little while to understand the program and how it works for you."

The Best of Kass
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Doug Kass of Seabreeze Partners is known for his accurate stock market calls and keen insights into the economy, which he shares with RealMoney Pro readers in his daily trading diary.
Among his posts this past week, Kass wrote about why the market's trust in the Fed chairman is misplaced, why he shorted shares of Microsoft and some recent good news on the housing market.

Blind Faith in Bernanke Is Misplaced
Originally published on Friday, Aug. 31 at 2:07 p.m. EDT.
Come down off your throne, and leave your body alone. Somebody must change. You are the reason I've been waiting so long. Somebody holds the key. But I'm near the end, and I just ain't got the time. And I'm wasted, and I can't find my way home. Come down on your own, and leave your body alone. Somebody must change. You are the reason I've been waiting all these years. Somebody holds the key. -- Blind Faith, Can't Find My Way HomeI find it hysterical and almost ludicrous that market commentators, investment strategists and investors continue to voice blind faith in the Fed chairman. Ben Bernanke's poor forecasting capabilities rival those of his predecessor Alan Greenspan, and that is not a good thing for investors who hold onto the premise of a self-sustaining domestic recovery. As I have written repeatedly over time, Bernanke got the housing bubble wrong, he failed to anticipate the recession in 2008 and the role and systemic risk of derivatives (which Buffett calls financial weapons of mass destruction), and he didn't recognize until 2010 that the U.S. unemployment problem was nearly as much structural as cyclical. And he is now wrong on the benefits of further quantitative easing. Three years after the Great Recession and after the implementation of QE1, QE2, Operation Twist (and its extension), U.S. real GDP is growing at only about a 1.7% rate. In reality, more cowbell may actually be counterproductive in penalizing the savings class, creating a disincentive for banks to lend and by putting more pressure (as commodities rise) on the middle class (which I call screwflation). Low interest rates have become a blunt instrument for generating growth, but the growth problem lies not in the level of interest rates -- rather, the problems have been long in the making and are structural (in the categories of employment, education, etc.). I am not being a skeptic; I am being a realist. What ails the U.S. economy is not liquidity; it is confidence. We don't need any more bond buying or quantitative easing, which is no longer positively impacting the real economy; we need progrowth fiscal policy that addresses fundamental economic issues that have been several decades in the making.

You may be eating and drinking some odd things in the future. There is striking new evidence that green, or unroasted, coffee beans can produce a substantial decrease in body weight in a relatively short period of time. Drinking coffee doesn't do it--you have to eat the beans. And here's another odd cure: Other research suggests that ingestion of components of afterbirth or placenta may offer benefits to mothers and maybe even to non-mothers and males.
Researcher Joe Vinson studied a group of overweight or obese people who consumed a fraction of an ounce of ground green coffee beans each day lost about 10% of their body weight. Vinson says, "Based on our results, taking multiple capsules of green coffee extract a day--while eating a low-fat, healthful diet and exercising regularly--appears to be a safe, effective, inexpensive way to lose weight."
Another study recommends that a newborn baby's placenta be saved and eaten--if not by the mother, then by the father or anyone else who wants the benefits of ingesting it. Some animals do this and now scientists think that we should too.
Meanwhile, A new study has found a link between diet sodas and heart disease. Researchers found that daily consumption of diet soda is associated with an increased risk of strokes and heart attack, although the reasons for this are still unclear.
In the February 28th edition of the New York Times, Nicholas Bakalar quotes epidemiologist Hannah Gardener as saying, "The message for diet soft drink drinkers is not to be alarmed. What we've found is an association, and it might be due to chance or other unmeasured variables."
Hey, if you're going to drink coffee or cola (and eat a placenta?), we suggest you sip from a Dreamland Festival mug! And you don't need to chew green coffee beans in order to lose weight: All you need is Anne Strieber's famous diet book "What I Learned From the Fat Years." Since it's a download, it costs much less than the diet books you'll find at your bookstore AND it's much better!
Come toast your favorite Dreamland hosts--and special guest Nick Pope--with soda, coffee or whatever else you like at our upcoming Dreamland Festival, but hurry: We keep this small so we can have personal interaction with everyone there, which means that tickets are going fast!
about the diet soda, what I have been able to find out is that:
1. it destroys the regulation of the appetite even after You have stopped drinking diet sodas. And so You don't loose weight.
2. it increases the risk of women giving premature birth to their babys.
3. like all sodas it destroys the teath (drink water without CO2).
that said there is no warning or ban against Aspartame from the food regulators here in Denmark, and if I start drinking sugar soda I get fat and uncomfortable. There is an insane amount of sugar in ordinary sodas, and You get diabetes. Water is boring to drink, but we should cut out sodas.
Since coffee has a diuretic effect is there any indication that rapid weight loss in such a short period of time is due to loss of "body water"? If that is at least part of the reason, how safe can that be to your electrolyte balance?
Soooo....Just what IS the issue with diet soda? Is it the aspartame (which some believe to be a poison of sorts) or is it the carbonation? Or maybe (gasp) the caramel color! I haven't been able to sort out the problem because there appear to be so many divergent opinions.
I think it is the aspartame, because bobbles and caramel color is in sugar soda also. Not sure though. This information age is a joke. It is impossible to find things out. There is always 2 sides and a bunch of conspiracy videos on Youtube. It should be called "the confusion era, the times where we will spin You around!"

Rating Change #8
Symantec Corp (SYMC) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from buy to hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its impressive record of earnings per share growth, compelling growth in net income and revenue growth. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including weak operating cash flow and a generally disappointing performance in the stock itself.
Highlights from the ratings report include:
- SYMANTEC CORP reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. We feel that this trend should continue. This trend suggests that the performance of the business is improving. During the past fiscal year, SYMANTEC CORP increased its bottom line by earning $1.57 versus $0.76 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($1.69 versus $1.57).
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Software industry. The net income increased by 232.7% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $168.00 million to $559.00 million.
- The gross profit margin for SYMANTEC CORP is currently very high, coming in at 88.70%. Regardless of SYMC's high profit margin, it has managed to decrease from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, SYMC's net profit margin of 33.30% compares favorably to the industry average.
- SYMC has underperformed the S&P 500 Index, declining 23.71% from its price level of one year ago. The fact that the stock is now selling for less than others in its industry in relation to its current earnings is not reason enough to justify a buy rating at this time.
- Net operating cash flow has declined marginally to $687.00 million or 0.29% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing the cash generation rate to the industry average, the firm's growth is significantly lower.

Source: Sims hopes to speed up trade
Seattle Seahawks guard Rob Sims plans to sign his one-year, $1.101 million restricted free-agent tender Thursday, hoping to speed up his chances for a trade, according to a source.
NFC West blog
ESPN.com's Mike Sando writes about all things NFC West in his division blog.
The Seahawks recently informed Sims he was being shopped and they were hoping to get three teams involved. The Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions have expressed interest in Sims and, according to a source, the Philadelphia Eagles might also be interested.
Sims, a fourth-round draft choice, has 34 starts in his four seasons in Seattle. The former Ohio State guard has the flexibility to play the left or the right side of the line, which makes him attractive to teams.

A proposal for an East side Gun shop inside a home has been turned down by the Buffalo zoning board. YNN's Katie Cummings has more on what's next for the homeowner.
BUFFALO, N.Y. — After teaching gun safety courses for the past year at his home on Adams and Sycamore streets, Howard Slaughter wanted to start selling weapons, specifically pistols from his residence. However, that proposal was turned down at Wednesday's City of Buffalo zoning board meeting.
"I didn't see anybody with him to protect his property and he really didn't have a plan in place to protect his property," said James Lewis III, Zoning Board of Appeals Chairman.
Many people in Slaughter's east side neighborhood opposed the idea.
"Possible theft of weapons that were delivered to the house, about the delivery method of how guns would be delivered and others just did not want more guns in," said Darius Pridgen, Buffalo Common Council member.
Meanwhile, Slaughter says he was prepared to have security measures in place and would not allow the discharging of weapons in his home.
"I would have to show identification in order to sign off on that product coming to the house. It couldn't just be left on the doorstop. It couldn't be signed off by a neighbor. My home is well secured inside and out for safety features concerning that," said Howard Slaughter, of Vernal's Arms Sales.
But the board said a pawn shop on Bailey Avenue had lots of security measures.
"And they got robbed and they got robbed for hundreds of guns and those guns flooded the streets of Buffalo for the longest time and were attributed to many murders, homicides and assaults," said Lewis.
Lewis says Slaughter could operate a business in an industrialized area but not residential. Slaughter says that doesn't work for his business plan.
Slaughter said, "I may have three clients a month, not 30 a day. There's a lot of people that have misnomers about firearms and the destruction they can do but I'm totally into educating the community on firearms and firearm safety and the such."
Slaughter says he will look at other options for his business.

The two-hour event served as a place for parent educators to find out more about resources available to them. The expo featured a variety of services. Music and art lessons, horseback riding, karate and other extracurricular activities were highlighted as well as curriculum options and information from local colleges.
Cheri Cresswell of BCHE said the expo was a "reminder to everyone of what's out there" for home-schoolers.
Organizations such as the Civil Air Patrol, Girl Scouts of America and the YMCA are open to home-schooled students and presented information at the expo. Caywood School of Karate also organizes classes specifically for home-schooled students.
Kimberly Hall, who has a master's of education in exceptional education, gave fellow home-school parents information about her writing classes. Hall started home schooling when her oldest son was in fifth grade, and has been teaching writing to home-schoolers for more than six years. Her classes are held every Thursday from 1 to 2 p.m., starting Sept. 1, at Maddie Kertay's studio. There is a cost to register ($8 to $12, depending on the class size).
While many parents present had been home-schooling for years, for some this year would be their first.
Such was the case for Olga Maslov, who has a kindergartner and a third-grader, and said she decided to home-school this year for a variety of reasons. She said she likes that she will be able to spend more time with her children since she will be with them during the school day.
A table about cello and violin lessons was set up by Lisa Higdon. Bethany Freesen was also offering information about violin lessons, while piano lessons were discussed by Christina Powell. Jackie Shellabarger was also providing information on music lessons.
Cleveland State Community College and Bryan College in Dayton were also present at the event.
Lindsey Wolfe of Bryan College said a third of the students at the college had graduated from a home-school group. She said many home-schoolers become interested in the college because of their connection to SUMMIT ministries. She said the application for a home-schooled student would be the same as for any other student.
Lee Cigliano of CSCC said the application for a home-schooled students is also the same, except students must prove graduation from a home-school umbrella group.
Sports opportunities were also being discussed.
Home-school students are welcome on the Tennessee Christian Preparatory School campus as athletes in middle school football and high school boys' and girls' basketball, according to Leslie Bennett, athletic director at the school. The school has allowed home-schooled students on these teams for at least the last five years.

A movie to watch if you don't have a good option at the rental store but I'd skip purchasing it.
This movie has a bit more intelligent script, but contains a lot less special effects (although there are several pretty good car chases).
I don't think a movie should just make stuff up about real people and anti-Americanism really ticks me off.
Good actors, but a lame movie. Somebody at Disney must of been really stoned to think of a movie like this. I can't believe I even bought this!Published 19 days ago by Rich

"I'm lazy."
"I'm selfish."
"I should have done things differently."
"I'm not very smart."
"I'm making a big mistake."
These are common statements I hear, all related to a position of self-doubt and deficit. We can come by them honestly in that they protect us from feared judgment from others that might be worse then our own. They also reduce what is usually much more complex into something bite sized, and they provide a feeling of control—after all, if I caused it, I can fix it. Unfortunately, they also use a wide brush to paint a rather unflattering picture. These statements (and beliefs) blanket over what is usually just the human condition and make it something dark and pathological. They miss the beauty, the good intentions, the exhaustion, the growth, and the common thread that runs through us all.
Most of the time, we can unpack the above statements and give ourselves the benefit of the doubt, we can realize that we are not perfect and neither is anyone else. Even in the face of discomfort and wishing that things were different, we can accept all of who we are. When you are caught in the throws of self-diagnosis, perhaps you can remember the following:

Don't feel overdressed.
It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to wear your burly waterproof, seam-sealed shell on the slopes when the sun's shining and knee-deep powder only exists in your memory. Try the Quiksilver Hoody Softshell Jacket instead. Stretchy, water-resistant, and super breathable, the Hoody won't turn you into a sweaty, swampy mess during spring riding sessions and bluebird days.
Share your thoughts
What do you think of the
Quiksilver Hoody Softshell Jacket - Men's
? Share a...
just ok
The jacket is thin and simple but that's ok since it is suppossed to be just a shell. The blue color is a little different than the one displayed online. Just make sure you have a good warm layer underneath because is not warm at all.
Kat Cooper
Must have
I love the look of this softshell and the dirty lime color, though I kinda want it in bluestone as well. It's very minimal but functional; pretty much a staple for spring riding. However, it does run huge as previously noted. Definitely go down at least one size.
Good for Spring Conditions
Great jacket, but fits BIG...I recommend buying on size smaller.

quotes worth repeating…01
5 November 2012
This one was just the thing I needed to hear today. Architects do tend to ramble and say things that are meaningless at times, but this was a bit profound. Even though, I typically do not need to hear anything famous architects have to say, I thank Henry and Julia for their insight.
The remainder of the book is a good and easy read; not one you read like a novel, but more like a magazine in a doctor's office. Ms. Dushkes did a great job, but how long can you tolerate when architect opine about everything and anything? I still recommend having this on your shelf.
Image is from "the ARCHITECT says, Quotes, Quips and Words of Wisdom", compiled and edited by Laura S. Dushkes, Princeton Architectural Press, © 2012. My thanks go out to Russell Fernandez, Marketing and Internet Promotions Manager for Princeton Architectural Press for sending me so many books just for writing this drivel. My apologies go to PAP for posting this image without 'real' permission.

house poor or poor house?
17 April 2011
I agree that the house can be a laboratory for design for most architects. It is a place for experimentation and a chance to move the profession of architecture forward. I feel mine is just that in its infancy. That's not the debate. What is appropriate for a major architectural journal to publish as "good" design is a question I've been pondering. Have you seen the latest copy of Architectural Record, April 2011, the Record Houses issue? As with each annual issue, it is full of exciting, unique and mostly unlivable houses as it has faithfully published for many years. I must admit my visceral reaction was resistive to the unrealistic houses built for some rich person willing to let their architect do something weird.

Chevy S10/GMC S15-Sonoma: Problems & Solutions
chevy02 Posts: 19But there is a difference. My dad has the Sonoma at a mid trim level. I have the s10 in the LS trim level. Yet, he still has more comfortable seats (Although they are 60/40 not the buckets) and those little extenders on the visors which I think is absurd the Chevy LS package doesn't have. Little things yes, but man I'll definitely go for the GM version next time!
Compressor, condenser, evaporator, accumlator, all the lines and fittings which should include the orvice valve, R134a and oil. The wiring and relays. A vacuum pump to evacuate the system or bring it to an A/C shop to evacuate. I may have forgot something but you get the idea.
I just bought my '98 Chevy S10 Pickup. Everytime I put a CD in, it says ERR and pops it out. I tried a lens cleaner, using the CD when the truck is off/cool/on, etc., turning the CD upside down.....
Anyone else have similar problems, ideas?
Thanks for any help offered...
ron24 Posts: 1Lunchbox,
I am having the same problems but with my electrical. The wipers come on by them self, the headlights are dim and when you put turn signals on the lights go dimmer, the dash lights come on by them self. I keep thinking it has something to do with brakes?
Any luck yet?
The water pump went out on my truck and it ran hot on the way home. I made it home and turned it off and let it cooled down so we could change out the water pump. And after we did, we tried to start it and it wouldn't start. So we replaced the Plugs and crank shaft sensor assuming that it was that. Well it still didn't start.And i have done everything i could possibly do to get it to start and NO luck.
It ran fine on the way home and i just can't figure out as to why it wont start now. If you have any ideas please help. I have a chevy s-10 pickup. 2.2 liter. I had the timing checked and it's ok. The coil packs are ok and the module is ok. I am clueless as to what else it could be. Please help. I miss my truck
thank you
ump50 Posts: 1i have had the same problem with my 2000 s10.i talked to my mechanic and he said that it might be tempurature problem related in the transmission maybe with some sensors he has not recieved anything from gm on the problem yet . i have had to pull off the road and wait about 10-20 mins and then go again. i havent had the problem in the winter time only in the hotter months. if i find out anything else i will let ya know.
Those compressions are low. The 2.2 has an aluminum head, they almost always crack when overheated, that's the reason it has a temp gauge, GM knows the head cracks very easily when over heated.
The statement that I got it home did not sound good. I don't know your situation at the time but when you could see the gauge nearing the red, stop the engine, after it cools add water even from a brook or large puddle if need be. Looks like you have major engine work.
volstd Posts: 1I'm looking at a 98 Sonoma for my son that only has 44,000 miles and is a five speed and has no dents and has never been wrecked. The dealership said that I could get it for $5,000 out the door. I know it's a good price but are Sonomas good trucks. What are some of your opinions. Are you happy with yours?
'94 S10 Blazer (150k)
My brakes intermittently get very hard, with no stopping power. Sometimes I can push through this, but other times I have to let it up completely and try again. Usually the second or third time after I let it up, it depresses fully and normally.
The problem only occurs after I have been driving for awhile. The first 15 minutes each time I drive it are usually fine, but then the problem gets worse the longer I go. Eventually the ABS and brake warning lights will come on, but that takes a long time, and I've only had that happen once or twice.
Other symptoms include a low and soft grinding noise when it happens, and hot front rims after I've been driving.
Front calipers and pads are new, and the rear drums are new.
I've been doing okay going back and forth from work, but I have to drive half-way across the country in a couple weeks. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Same problem from #849
I just put my front end up and noticed that the driver's side front wheel doesn't spin as freely as the passenger's side front. I get at least a full revolution when I spin the passenger's side wheel, and at most 1/8th of a revolution on the driver's side.

Long time listener, first time caller...j/k. :0)
I got this truck used, its basically a work truck. A few things wrong with it, relatively minor.
1. The horn doesn't work (Fuse has been replaced) the horn itself actually works(Hooked it up to the battery) missing foam/insulator maybe?
2. Parking break doesn't work. Clicks down nice and strong, but no stopping action
3. Am in the process of trying to install a cd deck (Sony) no wiring harness to speak of. Hooked up ground to the body, power and ACC...it takes the cd in when I turn it to acc. but the face plate doesn't light up...
Any suggestions, pointers, tips, advice, would go a long way. Thank you!

hoodlatch Mid-westPosts: 255I have a 92 S-10 pick-up with a brake warning light that won't go out. I replaced pads, calipers, hoses, master cylinder, flush and bled the system. Light is still on. Other than removing the light bulb, I don't know what else to do. The brakes work great and do a fantastic job. Any one else run into this problem?
alcan Posts: 2,550GM trucks with rear anti-lock used the red brake warning light at 1/2 intensity to indicate an ABS fault. Quick test, apply the parking brake and if the light gets brighter you have an ABS problem. Before you throw any more parts at it, retrieve the stored codes by jumpering terminals A and H on the data link connector as shown here:
Count the flashes on the light, post the codes, and we'll go from there.
