That's Right, Your New Batman is…Ben Affleck?!
By Dan Casey on August 24, 2013
Who would have guessed that all these years Matt Murdock was secretly a cover for Bruce Wayne? That's right, folks, Warner Bros. announced today that none other than one-time Daredevil actor and Oscar-winning director Ben Affleck will be donning the iconic cowl of Batman alongside Henry Cavill's Superman in Zack Synder's untitled Batman/Superman film, his follow-up to Man of Steel which drops on July 17th 2015.
Can't you just picture it now? Here's the full press release for your reading pleasure:
BURBANK, CA, August 22, 2013 – Ending weeks of speculation, Ben Affleck has been set to star as Batman, a.k.a. Bruce Wayne. Affleck and filmmaker Zack Snyder will create an entirely new incarnation of the character in Snyder's as-yet-untitled project—bringing Batman and Superman together for the first time on the big screen and continuing the director's vision of their universe, which he established in "Man of Steel." The announcement was made today by Greg Silverman, President, Creative Development and Worldwide Production, and Sue Kroll, President, Worldwide Marketing and International Distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures.
The studio has slated the film to open worldwide on July 17, 2015.
Last month's surprise announcement of the new movie featuring both Superman and Batman created a wave of excitement and immediately fueled discussion and debate—among fans as well as in the media—about who would put on the cape and cowl of Bruce Wayne's alter ego.
Snyder successfully re-imagined the origin of Clark Kent/Superman in the worldwide blockbuster "Man of Steel," which has earned more than $650 million worldwide to date, and climbing. The director will now create an original vision of Batman and his world for the film that brings the two DC Comics icons together.
Affleck will star opposite Henry Cavill, who will reprise the role of Superman/Clark Kent. The film will also reunite "Man of Steel" stars Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane.
In the announcement, Silverman stated, "We knew we needed an extraordinary actor to take on one of DC Comics' most enduringly popular Super Heroes, and Ben Affleck certainly fits that bill, and then some. His outstanding career is a testament to his talent and we know he and Zack will bring new dimension to the duality of this character."
Snyder also expressed his excitement about the casting of Affleck, noting, "Ben provides an interesting counter-balance to Henry's Superman. He has the acting chops to create a layered portrayal of a man who is older and wiser than Clark Kent and bears the scars of a seasoned crime fighter, but retain the charm that the world sees in billionaire Bruce Wayne. I can't wait to work with him."
Kroll added, "We are so thrilled that Ben is continuing Warner Bros.' remarkable legacy with the character of Batman. He is a tremendously gifted actor who will make this role his own in this already much-anticipated pairing of these two beloved heroes."
Affleck recently starred in the Academy Award®-winning Best Picture "Argo," which he also directed and produced, earning acclaim and a BAFTA Award nomination for his performance in the film, as well as a number of directing honors. In 2010, he starred in and directed the hit crime thriller "The Town." His recent acting work also includes "The Company Men," "State of Play," and "Hollywoodland," for which he received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor. Earlier in his career, Affleck starred in and co-wrote (with Matt Damon) "Good Will Hunting," for which he won an Oscar® for Best Original Screenplay.
The new Super Hero film is being scripted by David S. Goyer from a story he co-created with Zack Snyder. Charles Roven and Deborah Snyder are producing, with Benjamin Melniker, Michael E. Uslan and Wesley Coller serving as executive producers.
Production is expected to begin in 2014.
The film is based on Superman characters created by Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster, and Batman characters created by Bob Kane, published by DC Entertainment.
A while ago, we told you what we thought Man of Steel 2 should be and we're pretty sure it didn't include the guy from Paycheck. But we've been wrong before and hopefully we'll be pleasantly surprised again. In the meantime, have at it in the comments section or let me know what you think on Twitter.
Just because he is a "COMIC BOOK FAN" that shouldn't give him the right to play the part…
That line always seems to hit a nerve.. Just because you like something DOES NOT MEAN your good at it…
crap – that should read *withOUT ups and downs.
Started a facebook page against it. Starting online petition. Can get it to people that matter. please join me
[…] the Nerdist, LA […]
I'll remain cautiously optimistic. He's a very good actor and he has the face for it. Would've preferred to have a less well known name, but I'll take this. Hopefully it works out.
It doesn't matter who plays batman. It's still directed by Zack snyder, so it's going to be shitty no matter what.
Because he did such an incredible job as Daredevil right? FML Fuck Warner Bros. This is bullshit.
Batman has to be a mature man who inspire respect and fear… in the same time the best thing for the franchise is an "unknown" actor that can build a new Batman imagen after Bale.
For me, Richard Armitage would have given a much better quality to Batman. -
Ruined! No Heath Ledger / Joker comparisons… There will be no pleasant surprise, you don't reward someone who couldn't pull off Daredevil with an ICONIC DC role. Stupid Stupid Stupid. The DC Universe mourns.
I'm usually the one preaching not to pre-judge, but I feel safe pre-judging this. Affleck is a terrible terrible choice.
I think he'll do a fine job, he would not have accepted the movie if he didn't think he could do it. He knows his comic book lore, so there's that.
He played Daredevil very well, it was the movie itself that failed. Though the directors edition, was a much better version that should have been shown (extended some vital parts, and cut out parts there were not necessary).
*still laughing uncontrollably*
Poobah! Beetlejuice WAS Batman!
I don't think he can do it.
EPIC FAIL! Bennifer sucked as Daredevil and he will suck as Bruce Wayne / Batman (they would've been better off getting an unknown = @ least this would've saved $ on the film's budget) ….
I understand Christian Bale was done playing Bruce Wayne / Batman – he's did it for 8 years in 3 films – but Bennifer? (ppppft there goes setting things up for Justice League) ….

I'm a huge fan of Ben as a director. I'm also a rabid Batman fan. I'm conflicted on this because I'm not a huge fan of him as an actor. His performances sometimes feel forced. He's truly an amazing talent as a director though. Anytime he has a movie coming, I look forward to it.
I can see affleck pull off bruce wayne but not batman. He cant do dark and serious. Most of all he really doesnt exude intelligence. I cant buy him as someone who can outwit a villain. These are definitely dark times for batman. I wish these studio executives will listen to the outcry of the fans…maybe its not too late and we can start a petition?
Say what?! Ben Affleck as Batman?! Seriously?!
I am sorry, but I think that they should have went with Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Batman. And yes, I know they could not because Batman has to be Bruce Wayne. But choosing Affleck for the part is just moronic.
this is why DC cant have nice things.
They should have Tom Welling play Robin.
Wait a second…. Isn't Jennifer Garner starring with Tom Welling in "Draft Day"? What is going on here?
Guys with no talent win two Oscars all the time.
Yeah this is a good idea…… two movie for you; Gilgi or the worst movie ever made and Dare Devil (that speaks for its self)
I love the smell of nerd rage in the morning…
Imagine my "cartoon" jaw-drop when I heard this announcement.
Very, very poor choice.
Big fan of the franchise, but I will likely skip this one.
Too bad for the fans… -
Ya know, since gigli he's actually made some pretty damn fine movies. While this is certainly unexpected, he's a decent actor.
Plus, he's been a guy who's been Superman so at least he has sort of connections to DC.Though I have a rule, you get 1 marvel and 1 DC. If you screw both up, you get no more comic movies.
They probably were smoking crack when they decided to go with Ben Assface.
Somehow i hope Warner Brothers is just testing peoples reaction. After this shitstorm, they should reconsider their options. Either Christian Bale or Jon Hamm
*turning into the hulk*
My eye keeps twitching.
You're judging him for movies he made over a decade ago. It's a bit like declaring Bill Gates a royal fuck-up for dropping out of Harvard right around the time he made a billion dollars. Affleck has made great movies like "Argo" and "The Town" after all that. We haven't even seen him in the role yet, so let's withhold judgment until we see it.
Oh, almost forgot, he did make one good movie before "Daredevil", but I'm sure nobody even remembers a single line from it. By the way, do you like apples?
Worst. Decision. Ever. Well at least I know now that I don't have to watch the movie.
yup, I won't be spending a dime to watch a girly batman sorryz.
Worst choice ever. -
Please Christian Bale dont go!!!! Batman = Christian Bale just like Iron Man = Robert Downey Jr
Batman vs superman in itself was a fucking stupid idea. Now throw in ben affleck who isn't the greatest actor in the world.
I know legendary are desperate for some of that avengers money but its ridiculous. Let the trilogy stand alone.
dude! seriously?! are you sure you didn't find the article on the onion?!
definitely skipping this one! -
Forget Daredevil, what about Pearl Harbor? Worst Movie Ever. And who cares about Argo, Affleck is simply the wrong choice for this, but then this is a studio that made Green Lantern so their ability to right royally mess up is well established. A space raccoon with a machine gun is going to have more credibility. Nuff Said.
"His outstanding career (except perhaps Gigli, Reindeer Games, Phantoms, Pearl Harbour, He's Just Not that Into You, Paycheck, Daredevil, Smokin Aces, Armageddon, the Sum of all Fears, Forces of Nature and Surviving Christmas) is a testament to his talent and we know he and Zack will bring new dimension to the duality of this character…"
[…] forced to quickly accept it seeing as It has already been reported by ign, variety, slashfilm, nerdist, newsarama, filmschoolrejects, and every entertainment website in the blogosphere. This news has […]
everyone's wrong as hell, he's a great choice, it's the movie that will suck
In my opinion, the best movie Batman was Michael Keaton by a country mile. If anybody thought he was a great choice for the role before that is fooling themselves. Ben Affleck is an amazing actor and has proven he can portray somebody with a cold-hearted edge to him (Argo). Of all the complaints I have seen over the choice, I have not seen a real reason why anybody would/should dislike him in the role.
I wish it had been Colin O'Donoghue. I can see the logic in having Ben A. play the role, though. He was Robin in a previous movie, so it kind of makes sense. Still the same, there's my selfish druthers. I'm still looking forward to seeing the movie.
So does this mean we're getting Matt Damon as Robin?
I know I'm late to the party probably because I was so shocked and disappointed. I like Ben Affleck but I LOVE Batman more. Just because he has two Oscars (writing and directing not acting) doesn't mean he can pull off iconic roles especially Batman.
Anyone that says Ben Affleck is a good actor clearly knows nothing about acting. The guy has been playing himself all his career which is a bad formula for a role like Batman. Check Kilmer and Clooney. Even in Argo. That one was just a bearded Ben Affleck rescuing some hostages. Great director though.
Why is it that "optimism" is so absent in the "nerd community"? It doesn't matter who they would have chosen to play the Dark Knight no one on here would have approved. I say reserve judgement until at least we see a full trailer. Then let the opines fly!
@John O, the doubts about Keaton were because of his comedic background while the doubts about Affleck are because he is an average one dimensional actor. Something Michael Keaton wasn't. Very different scenarios.

Saturation of Air formula?
Name: N/A Status: N/A Age: N/A Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: 1991
I need a formula to calculate the saturation point of air (water in air vapor in air) at various temperatures and pressures. I have tables and graphs of such things but would like a formula. Thanks
I do not think there is a formula. At least not anything that you would not need hundreds of hours of computer time to figure out. Just use the tables - they were obtained from experiments, and so should be correct!
Arthur Smith
Actually, you always "fit" the numbers in tables to get a formula out of them - a common form of fitting is polynomial regression, which you should be able to find in any reasonably good computer graphics program (let me know if you cannot find such a thing).

Editor's Note: Throughout the month in the pages of The Oklahoman, we'll offer recipes and reminders on how best to outfit your Thanksgiving table.
Giving thanks for a well-cooked turkey
November must've been pretty stoked when a bunch of liberty-obsessed Britons bolted from the mother country and bumped into a rock near a town called Plymouth.
Before those undocumented workers from across the Atlantic arrived on Indian land, November wasn't much more than the last hurdle before Christmas and Hanukkah — depending on whether you attended Mass or temple.
Many trace the Thanksgiving story to 1621, not far from the rock the Mayflower cozied up to, when settlers and American Indians shared a meal. Since 1863, our country has officially reserved a day in November for gorging on turkey, dressing/stuffing, fall vegetables, cranberries and pies in pecan and/or pumpkin. It's a gourmand's fantasy, and a turkey's terror.
So, it's of utmost importance that the turkey you serve be done properly.
Even though Thanksgiving is still weeks away, there is no better time than the present to review basic turkey roasting and some tips on how to ensure the fowl you center your feast on doesn't run afoul of flavor.
I started basting our turkey with this sand plum jelly-butter mixture several years ago. It finishes beautifully with a lovely sweet golden finish. This classic method can be used with a lidded roasting pan or heavy-duty roaster with a tent of foil until final basting. Plan about 15 minutes roasting time per pound plus an additional 20 to 30 minutes resting time.
1 turkey, thawed or fresh, brined 10 to 12 hours or overnight if desired
Chicken broth to fill roaster pan an inch deep
Celery sticks to position in bottom of roaster as a rack for turkey
Fresh herbs such as parsley, thyme and sage leaves
Carrot sticks, onion slices and celery stalks to roast around turkey
¼ cup butter (2 tablespoons softened for first basting, 2 tablespoons reserved)
2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ cup sand plum jelly melted with reserved butter for final basting
• Consult thawing chart, allowing time for thawing if needed. Thaw, and remove wrapper, working over sink to keep liquids from draining onto work space. Prepare roasting vegetables. Remove gib
• On the day before cooking, brine defrosted or fresh turkey, if desired.
• Adjust oven racks to fit turkey and set temperature at 325 degrees.
• Pat turkey dry with paper towels. Coat roaster with cooking spray or butter. Place turkey in prepared roaster. Tuck wings under by bending end section behind larger section. Secure legs with butcher's twine or silicone bands. Coat turkey's surface with softened butter.
• Surround turkey with slices of onion, carrot sections and celery stalks. Place sprigs of fresh herbs inside and around turkey, if desired. Pour broth around turkey and vegetables to a depth of 2 inches. Make a loose-fitting tent of foil, coating underside with cooking spray or butter. Secure tent over turkey so that liquids accumulating on foil will drip back into roaster. Use roaster lid if available and if it fits over turkey. Place turkey in oven.
• Wash utensils with hot, soapy water and clean all surfaces that come into contact with the bird with bleach to eliminate risk of cross-contamination.
• After an hour, baste turkey with pan juices using brush, spoon or turkey baster. Replace lid or foil tent. Do not baste again until about 30 minutes before turkey is done or when internal temperature is within 10 degrees of desired temperature in breast and thickest part of thigh. Melt jelly and combine with remaining butter and coat turkey. Continue roasting, uncovered, until turkey reaches internal temperature of 165 degrees and is golden brown.
• Remove turkey from oven and allow to rest, covered, for 20 to 30 minutes before plating and carving. Use turkey lifting forks or rolling pin inserted through body cavity to transfer turkey to serving platter.
• Cook's notes: Apple slices or orange wedges may be added to vegetables in roasting pan with a few inside the turkey. These are strained out of pan juices that will be used for gravy.
In cold water: Thaw breast-side down, in wrapper, submerged completely in cold water. Make sure water remains cold; add ice if needed. Estimate at least 30 minutes per pound to thaw a whole turkey.
Listed here are approximate thawing times for various weights of turkey, with times for refrigerator thawing and for cold-water thawing:
• 10 to 12 pounds: 2 days; 4 to 6 hours.
• 12 to 14 pounds: 3 days; 6 to 9 hours.
• 14 to 18 pounds: 4 days; 9 to 14 hours.
• 18 pounds plus: 4 to 5 days; 14 to 24 hours.
Brine mixture
Turkey should be thawed or fresh for proper brining. Prebasted or injected turkeys may not require brining. Check ingredient list on turkey packaging for salt, saline or broth solution.
1 cup salt per 1 gallon brine
1 cup sugar per 1 gallon brine
1 to 2 gallons cool water
• Mix salt and sugar with half of the water until dissolved. Place in clean ice chest, heavy-duty food-safe plastic bag or bucket large enough to submerge turkey. Pour brine mixture into container. Trim excess fat from cavity opening and around neck of turkey. Place turkey into brine, adding enough remaining water to cover turkey. It may be necessary to weight down turkey to keep it submerged. Place lid on ice chest. Allow turkey to remain in brine overnight or six to eight hours. Do not add additional salt to brined turkey.
• Use apple juice in lieu of water if you'd like to reduce the salt and sugar that is used.
• After brining, be sure to clean ice chest with bleach solution and rinse well.

Expression of p73, a p53 family member regulating cell growth and apoptosis, is maintained at low levels in mammalian cells, and cellular activation of p73 is usually controlled at the protein level. However, the precise molecular mechanisms by which p73 stability is regulated are unclear. During the search for interacting molecules with the COOH-terminal proline-rich region of p73, we identified a novel NEDD4-related protein (termed as NEDL2) which contains a C2 domain at its NH(2)-terminus, two WW domains, and a HECT domain at its COOH-terminus. As expected, NEDL2 catalyzed the ubiquitination of bacterial cellular proteins in vitro. Reciprocal co-immunoprecipitation experiments and in vitro pull-down assays revealed that NEDL2 bound to p73, which carries two putative PY motifs. p73 was efficiently ubiquitinated but stabilized in a NEDL2-dependent manner. Accordingly, p73 decayed at faster rates in the absence of NEDL2 than in its presence. Consistent with the NEDL2-mediated stabilization of p73, NEDL2 enhanced the p73-dependent transcriptional activation. Thus, our results suggest that NEDL2 activates the function of p73 by increasing its stability.

The National Historical Publications and Records Commission seeks proposals to publish historical records of national significance.
Projects may focus on the papers of major figures from American life or cover broad historical movements in politics, military, business, social reform, the arts, and other aspects of the national experience. The historical value of the records and their expected usefulness to broad audiences must justify the costs of the project.
Grants are awarded for collecting, describing, preserving, compiling, editing, and publishing documentary source materials. A top priority of the Commission is to support editions that have plans to publish their results as a free online resource. Because of the focus on documentary sources, grants do not support preparation of critical editions of published works unless such works are just a small portion of the larger project.
Funding category deadlines include optional draft deadlines and final deadlines:
Colonial and Early National Period's draft deadline is May 1st; final is July 7th.
New Republic Through Modern Era's draft deadline is August 2; final is October 6th.

It's the first day back at Creswell Elementary since the death of 5-year-old MacKenzie Beightol. The kindergartener was hit by a truck and killed last Thursday in a driveway near her home. This weekend, a second child was injured in Plain Dealing when he was struck by a truck while riding his bicycle.
For some Ark-La-Tex parents, the shock of these accidents hasn't quite worn off. "I have a 5-year-old and you know, it's just sad that something can happen, you know, in the blink of an eye," said Melissa Woods, whose three daughters went to school with MacKenzie Beightol.
Unfortunately, stories like this aren't uncommon, according to KidsAndCars.org. Founder Janette Fennell founded the website after realizing how many children are injured in automobile accidents. She says 50 children are hurt or killed every week across the country. The website recently helped pass a bill that requires unobstructed rear views for all vehicles sold in the United States. It was signed into law in 2007, but isn't in effect because of technical delays.
For Fennell, it's all about education. "We really need to stop and appreciate and understand that every morning, when we get into our car, we're basically doing the most dangerous thing we're going to do all day," she said.

I thought that a little video would be a better blog post then another "it was epic training today" post would be!
As you all know I love crazy cars, and what I love the most about crazy cars are the ones that have super wide wheel arches, I love DTM cars, I love Super GT cars, I love the SL black series etc etc, but the coolest of them all is the Rauh Welt cars. I found this interview with Nakai, the founder of RWB and I have to say that he looks at cars and what people think of them a lot like I do. I love that a few guys really have the guts to stand out and go all in! I always get the question what I want to do when I quit skiing and I have to say that starting my own tuning company focused on super extreme builds would for sure be something that I would love to do!
Not to go un mentioned today is the Swedish Slalom boys WC performance, super strong work from Andre winning the opening and Mr Byggmark landing a 3rd place with his out of control signature skiing! Extra motivated to push even harder tomorrow!

If I were in your shoes I'd go out and buy me a 993 Turbo, ditch the 4wd, put some bigass turbos on it and have Nakai-san do the bodywork. Get some aircooled goodness and share with the world!

Adam Sandler Talks About NOT Getting A Part In 'Rock Of Ages' [AUDIO]
Funnyman Adam Sandler called in to "On Air with Ryan Seacrest" on Friday to talk about his new movie "That's My Boy," his Father's Day plans, embarrassing his kids, and finds out that Tom Cruise and Adam Shankman first talked about doing "Rock of Ages" at his house!
On Tom Cruise & Adam Shankman Conversation:
Tom called in to the show recently and told us that he was at Adam Sandler's daughter's birthday party when he had his first conversation with Adam Shankman about doing "Rock of Ages." So, did Mr. Sandler know about this conversation? "I remember those guys talking, and I remember being excluded from that conversation. They dreamed it up at my house, at my child's affair, and I couldn't get a damn part in that movie!"
Adam Sandler Talks Shaving His Legs For Al Pacino In 'Jack and Jill'
On 'That's My Boy':
"That's My Boy,' that came to our office, just a script that people in my office loved and bought. Andy Samberg called me up and kept telling me: 'If you do that movie, I'd love to play your son.' I kept going: 'What movie is he talking about?' Then finally, I read it and I loved. It's a pretty crazy movie and it's got some funny stuff that is very dirty and filthy, but pretty warm at times. I connected with it, and I was laughing at it, and that's why I got excited to do it."
[soundcloud id='65603813']
Does Adam Embarrass His Kids?
"Yes, yes, yes. That happened this year, because Sadie goes to school with other kids now and I think she figured out the other fathers wear pants, and I show up in shorts all the time. It used to be when I'd say [when she was] in pre-school: 'Hey, I'm going to come by today to see you' and she'd get excited. Now I say: 'I'm going to come by,' She goes: 'Please wear pants.' Please shower is a big one too!"
Adam Sandler's 'Thanksgiving Song' Gets the Ryan Seacrest Treatment
On His Father's Day Plans:
Father's Day is this weekend, so what would Adam like for the special day? "If they [his kids] could just give me a half hour of respect and then we'll turn it back to them. My kids are too young to have a whole day devoted to me. I'll take a half hour of pancakes and that kind of stuff and then we'll go back to worshiping the kids."
"That's My Boy" opens in theaters today!

Daily OCD: 6/6/11 | |
Written by Mike Baehr | Filed under Shimura Takako, reviews, Michael Kupperman, manga, Jason, Daily OCD | 6 Jun 2011 7:29 PM |
Today's Online Commentary & Diversions:
• Review: "The creator [of Wandering Son], Shimura Takako, is a well-established manga artist recognized for her LBGT focus, certainly not your usual manga fare. In the series' debut-in-English, Shimura treats both protagonists' journeys of self-discovery with gentle honesty; her characters are wide-eyed and adorable, uncertain and searching." – Terry Hong, BookDragon (Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Program)
• Review: "...I was pretty intrigued to see how Jason's illustration would work with someone else's writing. The short answer is that it works amazingly well.... The Isle of 100,000 Graves is an inventive and original tale, filled to the brim with absurd and hilarious dialogue, delivered with impeccable timing by Fabien Vehlmann. The story is brought to life with wonderful artwork by Jason, and eye popping colours by Hubert. I can't recommend this book highly enough, I don't think I've laughed this much at a comic in years!" – Edward Kaye, Hypergeek

AT&T: No vacation around the iPhone anniversary
The iPhone's U.S. carrier has reportedly blocked off a one-month period in which vacations are discouraged, most likely in preparation for the launch of iPhone 2.0.
It would be helpful if from now on, AT&T's HR department would just send their vacation policy e-mails directly to tech writers, since they're going to get out anyway and they pretty much apply to us as well.
The Boy Genius Report snagged an internal e-mail that made its way around AT&T earlier today instituting a vacation freeze for all sales employees between June 15 and July 15, in order to support "an exciting new promotion/product launch." Hmm, whatever could that be ?
A similar e-mail was sent to AT&T reps last year, blacking out vacation during the period around the launch of the first iPhone. The 3G version of the iPhone is widely expected to make its debut in mid-to-late-June , on or around the same time the iPhone 2.0 software is released.
It's not clear what Apple and AT&T have in mind for the one-year anniversary, but AT&T expects "heavier than normal customer traffic in our stores," according to the memo.

Krista Huot's work is of tall, thin females and shorter, squatter creatures that seem worried or very much afraid, with a few magical animals here and there. Oftentimes, the Huot world has not quite the sweetness of fairytales, but rather the edge that has the viewer concerned about what lurks around the corner. Other times, ballerinas in various shades of green dance oblivious to danger of any kind. This artist's work is elegant and unpredictable.
Artist: Krista Huot

Krista Huot will be exhibiting at the Corey Helford Gallery in Culver City from July 19 through August 9.

Do you know where you're going to? The Teaching of Guru Garth
Few people realise that there is a profound spiritual teaching hidden in the movie Wayne's World. Paying attention to this teaching can help us to make sure that we make progress in our spiritual practice, because without it we may find ourselves wandering in aimless circles.
On the way we meet OSKAR and a Hindu Swami, and explore some of the possible responses to the buffet table at a party, as well as the benefits of learning to be optimistic. But remember, "No Stairway!"

White magic
In his devotion to White Tara, Jnanagarbha yearns to be filled with her beauty so that he can make the world a better place.
It is a summer evening in the mountains of southern Spain. Above the occasional whir of an insect's wings, voices drift on the warm breeze from a shrine room 100 meters away. They are raised in unison, chanting a puja: a ritual of Buddhist worship. As I sit quietly on a sun-chair in the dark I conduct a solitary, silent puja. My eyes rest on the point where the steely rocks marking the southern side of the valley meet the deep, deep blue of the Mediterranean night sky. Little by …

Chart of the moment |
I. Introduction
This short extract gives you a taste of the personal "Child's Horoscope" by Liz Greene. The small samples taken from various chapters convey an impression of the complete horoscope (18-25 pages) which can be
ordered as an E-Horoscope or a bound book in the AstroShop.
Most parents long to provide their children with the best they can offer on every level. But what is "the best"? The birth horoscope of a child is a map of patterns and potentials which exist in that child from the moment of birth. Encouragement of
these potentials in childhood can help a child to develop greater confidence and hope for a future which is more authentically his or her own, so that greater happiness and fulfillment are possible later in life.
II. Your Child's Psychological Type
In this concise chapter Liz Greene describes the child's general temperament and his characteristic approach to life.
The rich array of individual abilities and potentials portrayed in Lee's birth horoscope is set against the background of an inherent temperament bias which may be partly hereditary but is also the reflection of a mysterious essence which belongs to
him alone. This mysterious "something" is already at work within Lee, helping him to develop his personality along the lines which are healthiest and most natural to him.
[..] He needs and deserves honesty, clarity and reasonableness from those around him, for he is innately ethical with a deep ingrained sense of right and wrong more highly developed than that of many adults.
Because Lee's natural bias is toward the world of the mind, he may [...]
III. The Characters in the Story
This is one of the most comprehensive chapters of the "Child's Horoscope". This short version touches only on a few of the central characters in your child's personality. The complete report provides a detailed description on 7-9 pages.
The tension between the main characters in Lee's inner story is the source of energy which provides the impetus for growth, movement and the formation of a healthy individuality.
[..] In this respect many adults might
learn a great deal from him.
Lee loves meeting new people in all sorts of situations on trains and planes, in shops and restaurants, at school and on holiday. He may often be caught wandering over to strangers to talk to them, and will [...]
[..] Lee may need some confidence-building not in the sense of gratuitous flattery, but in the form of real validation of his own ideas and feelings. The sooner parents offer this support, the better. His fairness, courtesy and refinement are
wonderful qualities which will [...]
Hidden traits
[..] This secret side of his personality may
show itself in abrupt outbursts of anger, or in cycles of apparently aggressive or anti-social behaviour which seem very alien to his usual manner. He may not find it easy to talk about such outbursts afterward, and may even attempt [...]
IV. Emotional Needs and Patterns in Relationships
This chapter contains valuable information on the child's basic needs and the relationship with his parents. The complete horoscope covers this chapter on 5-6 pages.
Every child has particular ways in which he or she experiences and seeks emotional contact with others, and this may not always accord with other, more dominant personality traits.
[..] But most importantly, Lee experiences
relationships as a source of peace and stability, and he needs as much steadiness, reliability and loyalty as possible from parents, family members and friends. He may sometimes be overly serious about his feelings, and a little touchy [...]
[..] Although circumstances such as work pressures or family conflict may make absences or separation necessary, the depth and intensity of Lee's feelings for his
father will not be lessened. The quality of the time Lee and his father can spend together is therefore much more [...]
V. Fears and Insecurities
Knowing about their child's fears can help parents to react with love and understanding in challenging situations. The child's main fears and insecurities are described on 2-3 pages in the full report.
VI. Looking toward the future
Many parents wonder about the future of their child. Every child has his own way to develop his potential. What this means for the individual child is described on 2-3 pages in chapter six of the complete Child's Horoscope.

text: I'm trying to track down the problem described, previously, with static compiles in an HLFS implementation and am retracing the steps in the HLFS book 20050320. I've seen it on two separate builds and someone has as well and I'm trying to determine if there is a subtle problem in the book which might explain this. When I apply the SSP patch to GCC in chapter 5.12, about half of the patches are offset by a handful of lines. The text does not suggest that this should be expected and I must admit that I get a bit uneasy with offset patches of things like the kernel, the compiler, the library or the linker. Before I build and potentially smash my GCC I want to understand if these offsets are expected? There are no rejections but I remain a bit concerned. Thanks in advance. Sean McLinden

Ab exercises for Couples
Ab exercises for couples
We may dream of washboard abs like Jessica Simpson or Matthew McConaughey but, let's face it, we can't always find the motivation to push ourselves through a round of ab exercises at the end of the day.
One not-so-secret motivational strategy is to exercise with your sweetheart. Couples usually find that they are more motivated to exercise when they do it together. They hit the gym more regularly and enjoy a more playful, active lifestyle.
Aerobic activities like running and cycling are natural ways to get fit and have fun together. So are team sports. However, cardio exercise alone isn't enough to achieve a well-defined eight-pack. In their quest for physical fitness, too many couples overlook the basics like ab exercises.
Ab exercises are a critical component of any fitness routine. All exercises build core strength and improve posture . Get more out of your workout—and your relationship—by incorporating ab exercises for two, you and your partner, into your routine.
Here are a few effective ab exercises which you can start with your partner.
Medicine Ball Sit-Ups for two: You and your partner:
- You lie flat on the floor with his or her knees bent.
- Your partner is standing with his or her feet lightly on top of your toes.
- Your partner tosses the medicine ball towards your abdomen.
- You catch the ball and raise it over and behind your partner's head until the ball rests on the ground.
- You rise into a full sit-up and toss the ball toYour partner.
- Repeat the steps 12 times.
- Switch roles and repeat.
Leg Throws:
- You lie flat on the floor withyour head between your partner's feet and hands grasping your partner's ankles.
- With lower back pressed against the floor, you press legs together and lift them slowly towards your Partner.
- Your partner pushes your legs back towards the floor.
- You swings legs back up in a fluid, controlled motion before they have a chance to hit the floor.
- Repeat the steps 12 times.
- Switch roles and repeat.
The credit the following exercis goes to Laura Keeler and staff at the London Workout Teachers' Training Centre in Philadelphia.
Tummy Crunch - Holding Hands
The tummy crunch is an excellent exercise for keeping the contraction within the tummy muscles. Keep in mind that this intimate
For this exercise both partners should lie on their backs with their feet facing each other and their legs extended.exercise is for intimate partners.
- Lie on your back, legs extended. Slide legs up to a 90-degree angle and rest them against your partner's legs.
- Move towards each other until buttocks touch.
- Reach towards each other and hold hands.
- By contracting core abdominal muscles, you lift your partner into a stomach crunch.
- Alternate roles, slowly and deliberately.
- Repeat 10 times per partner.
But don't stop here. Many gyms offer aerobic, strength training and yoga classes for couples. There are also DVDs and books with ab exercises designed specifically for partners to perform together.
With discipline, you and your partner could soon be proud of impressive abs of your own.

Why Did It Take So Long for the Ordering Catalog to Be Given Away?
- Posted by Johanna on October 22, 2013 at 5:51 pm
- Category: Digital and Webcomics
Marvel Comics has announced that the Marvel Previews monthly catalog will be available for free digitally starting November 6. It's about time! I've wondered for a while why a customer should be asked to spend money in order to know what to spend more money on. However, there's a big snag that makes this almost worthless: you can't use it to preorder, since "Marvel Previews will not transition to a free download until the month its contents are on sale. Retailers can still enjoy selling the catalog to customers within the usual window."
So Marvel will give you an out-of-date advance look at comics that have likely changed contents or creators by the time you're reading the catalog. I thought this was a forward-looking idea, but it's just a typical comics industry half-assed attempt to pretend to be modern.
I understand that print catalogs, especially monthly 400-plus-page phonebooks, cost money, and as times have gotten tighter, many retailers no longer offer Previews (and its little Marvel sibling) for free. That's short-sighted thinking, though, in my opinion, since these days, preordering benefits the shopkeeper more than it does the customer.
What this boils down to is, instead of generating timely marketing material to drive customers to retailers (or encourage more digital purchases), which would cost money, this approach is a lame attempt to wring more value out of existing content.
Marvel's SVP of Publishing David Gabriel attempted to put a shiny spin on the announcement. "By putting information about new print products and collected editions in the hands of our growing digital customer base, we can inform those customers about the great Marvel products available at their local retailers!" Except we've pretty much established that digital and print customers are different audiences, so this reads like a lot of wishful thinking. Even if I found something in this free catalog that I (as a hypothetical digital reader) wanted, why wouldn't I just click a few buttons on the device in my hands and get it there?
While we're on the topic, there's an even bigger question still out there: why are retailers and end customers still being given the same advance promotional material?

October 22, 2013 at 7:16 PMAnswers! Or at least my answers.
Marvel fans have long paid for information about upcoming news on what they are publishing. They are/were fanatics about the company and wanted to know what they were publishing next. From 60s and 70s fanzines, to Marvel Age, to Wizard and in part Previews.
But if they want to grow their sales they need to make this free as I don't think the newer readers are willing to pay for something like that.
A whole lot of retailers would be incredibly pissed if Marvel put links in it's catalog aiming at either their site or comiXology to buy the books digitally, possibly even to the point of suing them for unfair competition.
And I think the reason the consumer and retailers are still being given the same information is because any "exclusive" info only going to retailers would end up on the news sites very quickly, to the point where it's pointless to separate the two.
- Johanna Says:
October 22, 2013 at 7:25 PMI knew the idea that retailers aren't professional enough not to share the information would come up. My cynical side says you're right, but it's a shame.
Regarding cross-selling digitally, I wasn't suggesting actual links, just that someone using (for example) a tablet to read Marvel Previews already has a whole comic store in their hands.
- Jer Says:
October 23, 2013 at 12:41 PMknew the idea that retailers aren't professional enough not to share the information would come up.
I'm a bit confused – why is it a problem that customers who want the information have access to the retailer info?
I thought your lament above was that comics companies don't seem to bother even creating targeted advance promotional material for separate retailer and customer audiences, and assume that everyone getting the info is part of the same long-term comics fan culture. I think that's problematic and has been for a long time. But I don't see the problem with retailer info being available to customers who want to see it.
- hapax Says:
October 23, 2013 at 2:40 PMOne of the (many, many) reasons I gave up buying mainstream comics was the day I looked at my monthly PREVIEWS and asked myself "Why the *hell* am I spending good money for a crappy commercial?"
- Johanna Says:
October 23, 2013 at 4:09 PMHapax, you reminded me of long, long ago, when we'd talk about how embarrassing it was to read Previews in public because it looked like soft porn.
Jer, the problem is that there could be info that retailers need to accurately order (such as an upcoming character death) that would spoil a currently running story (where the team just went into battle, say).
- alwayslurking Says:
October 24, 2013 at 5:16 AMIs there anything significant in the print Previews that doesn't appear on the comixology pull-list site?
I wasn't getting enough value out of the full-cover-price catalogue to justify it and I haven't had any problem so far with pre-ordering my physical titles based on the comixology version. Am I missing something?

yeah, I know I'm horrid about updating but my comp got thrown down the stairs and then the guy who threw it went into a diabetic coma and died two days later.... as you can tell, my life is just one big mess of Charlie-Foxtrot-ted-ness right now.... since I've last posted, I've....
~gotten a job
~had far too many cups of tea in 7 days than is healthy for anyone but an English dowager
~had my computer thrown down 3 sets of stairs, thus making the screen crack'd from side to side
~had a haircut that made me look like ringo starr
~was in a band for two weeks
Things have changed for me...in a hugely fundamental way. I can't really explain without a long, involved story, but it has to do with something many of you know about - a certain...guy. Let's just say that this heretofore missing ghost returned a couple foggy nights ago, and we had some very encouraging words.

As witnessed in Britain, mob mentality is no less ugly for having been carried via social media. It's also borderline offensive to talk about the events of Northern Africa in the same context as the UK looting.
LOVE and marriage these days may not go together as a horse and carriage, but social unrest and youth unemployment are even less connected. They are often lumped together because analysts tend to infer one from the other without actually observing them in tandem or without controlling for pure chance. While riots in Britain may have left many bewildered, some of the most spectacular examples of recent social unrest these days are in Chile and Israel where youth unemployment has been missing in action. By contrast, South Africa, which probably holds the world record in youth unemployment, has remarkably little social unrest and the unions vehemently oppose policies that may give the youth a leg up.
Arguably, the people in Tahrir Square, many from the professional middle class, were responding not to a stagnant economy but to the sense of possibility that 5 years of economic liberalisation and growth created in Egypt. In 2010, Tunisia had just been mentioned as a top performer in the UN's Human Development Report.
Social unrest can be triggered by a plethora of grievances. Booms make people more secure and the relative price shifts they trigger, such as in food or housing, may cause many to feel despondent. This is not new. May 1968 in Paris and elsewhere happened in the context of a sustained economic boom where old rules and constraints suddenly became intolerable given the new opportunities and the security that a good economy provides.
Humans have the virtue of caring about many things and are propelled into action not only by despair but mainly by shared aspiration. While youth unemployment is not a common feature of recent examples of social unrest, Facebook is. Sharing aspirations and coordinating actions is part of the sense of possibility that the young are exploring today.

As witnessed in Britain, mob mentality is no less ugly for having been carried via social media. It's also borderline offensive to talk about the events of Northern Africa in the same context as the UK looting.
The reasons for the outpouring of social tension are complex and the timing is unpredictable. However, "prosperity" is certainly not among them. Perhaps other people's "prosperity" - while you are miserable yourself - is a source of rioting. Chile is one of the most unequal nations on Earth. Except for some privileged elites, Egypt and Tunisia are not "prospering" at all. Economic malaise brought on by the recession, and the lack of opportunity for the youth of those countries helped to spur the revolutions there. I'm not sure many people are "prosperous" in Libya, although lots of oil money has been flowing in. I don't think the "indignados" of Spain feel very "prosperous" in a country with a broken, unfair labor market.
Reducing youth unemployment is shown to curb all manner of social ills. Whether an open revolt, or misdirected violence breaks out, though, is absolutely unpredictable, but it's much more correlated with youth unemployment than with youth "prosperity", let alone caused by it.
why should it be offensive to compare events in N.Africa and UK? In some aspects they are the same even if regime in UK is just corrupt and ineffective v. say Qaddafi's corrupt, inefficient and criminal (to the point of mass murder) one. I'd say comparison is legitimate if only for the sake of argument. The main difference may be of course that the oppressed and voiceless were majority in Libya and are minority in UK. This does not change the fact that people are excluded from society and if so then there should be no surprise that they are not ready to follow the rules of society that excluded them.
Me thinks.
Here is a look at the issue of youth unemployment in the United Kingdom, the Eurozone and other nations:
It is interesting to note that other EU nations, Canada and the United States all have youth unemployment statistics that show extremely high levels of underemployment, often two to three times that of the general population
Interesting theory but, how does this fit with Spain´s "indignados"? During 10 years of bubble-fuelled boom youth unrest was nowhere to be seen. Only now that the going is getting tough have the young found a political conscience. As misled as they might be, there seems to be a link to youth unemployment...
Youth unemployment in Chile is 17%, less than in UK or Spain but far from "missing in action." Although the most (internationally) visible face of Chile's Winter are university students, the real riots and outrages are made by less educated, unemployed youngsters.
Unemployment is a problem which lasts forever, but its upon us to determine its share in the world population.The worst thing that shouldn't happen is that the talented and the skilled youths must not remain unemployed.

Working with Gary was a great experience. I was not able to spend much time looking for homes with working so much and he made the process very simple and hassle free. Another nice thing he does for his clients is pay for the home inspection which was great. All in all, the home buying process is never simple but he made it as simple as it could get and I was more than satisfied with the result. I would definitely recommend using Gary if you are looking for an agent in the area.

Ratings & Reviews
Gary is professional, takes care of his customers with the highest ethics and care. Anything that is needed he has great follow up and is honest. As well stays in touch if there is anything required after the sale.
Gary Hall delivered on all of his initial promises and then some! He walked into our initial meeting with a prepared proposal, explained in detail the steps he would take to get our house sold, offered staging assistance which we took advantage of, and guided us through the process. At each stage, Gary exceeded our expectations. He even took time to help us land future housing for which he was not compensated for. We recommend you meet with Gary to discuss your sale and would expect that your expectations would be exceeded as well!
Gary is the sharpest realtor I've worked with. I bought a house from him back in June and then used him to sell my existing home in October. Gary knows the Northwest Suburbs in IL well, knows how to negotiate with the other realtor to get the best deal for us, along with always being available.
I highly recommend Gary for all your future home buying and selling. You can count on Gary to make it happen.
Gary was amazingly helpful when we were looking for our first home. He was patient and extremely knowledgable. We were undecided whether or not we wanted a townhome or a single family home and he was willing to work with us and show us many different options. Not only was he trying to help us find what we were looking for, he helped us notice things we would have never of known to look for as a first time buyer. He made sure we saw all the issues with the houses we looked at, so there would not be any surprises if and when we decided to make an offer.
We must have dragged him out about a dozen times before finding a house that my wife fell in love with. When/if we ever sell and move, we will be working with Gary again.
Having mr Gary Hall helping us to find our house was a plus,He walked us thru it with ease,as a first time home owner Gary took the time to explain to us what to look forward too,thru the highs and lows Gary was there,the reward came after we were able to get our home,would use mr Hall in a heartbeat again and again,when we were in doubt,mr Hall was in our corner and made us comfortable,He is a man of his word and makes no promisses that he isn`t willing to do,straight shooter and not afraid to take the bull by the horns,All I can say is thank you mr Hall
Gary Hall is the most patient, reliable, and knowledgable realtor our family has ever met-we've been through a few of them! My husband and I started looking at small condos in 2008. Through the horrible market, many life changing ups and downs, Gary stuck with us through it all. Four years later and about 150 walk throughs, we finally found our first dream home. If you are new to the real estate market or looking for the home you want to retire in, I highly recommend Gary Halls expertise. Buying a home is a huge investment and having a knowledgable realtor that is genuinely in this field to help people is rare to find.
Mr. Hall's service was brilliant. His experience, knowledge, associations, and energy, is complete. My wife and I were ahead of every situation from when only thinking of selling our home, until closing day. And all during a most difficult real estate market !
Gary is a great realtor. He had been working with me and my family for a couple years now, From helping me short sale my own home, To helping my wife and I buy our new home( also a short sale) and everything in between, Gary has been there every step of the way, Answering our questions and ensuring that everything in the process happens the way its supposed to, making sure everyone is doing there part, Gary ends up playing many other roles to help make this happen, A valuable agent to have on your side I would recommend Gary Hall to anybody looking for a true Professional Real Estate Agent.
I would highly recommend Gary as anyone's point man for selling a home. Gary utilizes well rounded skill sets as he guides you thru this stressful process. He also brings a rare characteristic that most realtors don't have, integrity. Keep this man in mind when considering selling your home.

Suffolk Park
June 23rd, 2014 by Alison ShawSuffolk Park
Have you not been feeling your best lately? Has your skin been feeling tired and angry? Why not book in a facial! Ripple Massage Suffolk Park is the
premiere day spa that comes to you and offers luxurious day spa massage and beauty treatments in your own home or accommodation. Ripple Massage Suffolk Park has amazing facial masks that will suit every skin type so that you can have glowing skin again. You can even combine of the Ripple Massage Suffolk Park facials with one our luxurious massages like the honey massage which with the honey is great at cleaning and moisturising the skin as well with the massage helping out sore and strained muscles.
Here at Ripple Massage Suffolk Park we have previously spoken about how important it is to look after your skin. Skin is your largest organ and so your skin is a gateway for others to see how the rest of body and organs are holding up.
At Ripple Massage Suffolk Park we have mentioned how important drinking water is and it is probably the most important of all the tips that I have. Another tip is to always remove your makeup. We at Ripple Massage Suffolk Park don't know how many times we have made the mistake of going to sleep or having a little nap with my make up on. Every time without fail we regret it because we either end up with mascara in my eyes, or makeup on our pillows or even worse, breaking out in acne from the build up on our faces.
The best habit that we at Ripple Massage Suffolk Park think you can get into, is starting a skin care routine suited to your skin type. The best way to tell what type of skin you have is to check how your skin looks and feels first thing in the morning. Do you have dry skin that feels tight with no shine what so ever, and maybe the odd flake of skin? Then you most likely have dry skin. Do you wake up with a shiny face with oil build up? Then you will probably have oily skin. Do you wake up with dry cheeks and shiny nose and chin? Then you would have combination skin. Those lucky ones who wake up fresh as a daisy with no skin concerns would have normal skin.
Once you have worked out your skin type, you need to find products suited to your skin type.
Ripple Massage Suffolk Park believe that cleaning your skin every day is very important because your skin picks up dirt, oil and bacteria constantly and because the skin on your face is so delicate, it reacts more than the rest of your body, and therefore breaks out, goes red or flakes at a greater rate.
The best routine to get into is very basic and consists of three products. Ripple Massage Suffolk Park suggests a cleanser to wash your makeup off and to clean your skin, a toner to balance your skin and a moisturiser to of course, moisturise your skin. Once you can get yourself into a routine, then you will see you skin improve!
Some other great tips here at Ripple Massage Suffolk Park to remember are to cleanse your face twice before moving onto the toner. Once for taking the makeup off, and again to actually clean the skin. Also don't over moisturise, just a 10c piece on your fingers and then pat into your face and neck.

Malaysia Unplugged
Malaysia Unplugged
During April 2012, 17 primary and secondary school teachers from across Australia participated in the Malaysia Unplugged study program that took in Kuala Lumpur, Malacca and Sarawak.
Participation in the study program provided the opportunity for educators to learn about the ongoing political, educational and economic relationships between Australia and Malaysia through briefings provided by the Australian Embassy.
Briefings from the Malaysian Department of Education and the Malaysia Institute of Education supported participants to develop knowledge and understanding of the Department's educational objectives and organisational structure which was further supported through a number of visits to schools in urban and rural areas.
"There were many highlights of this amazing experience, but the visits to three schools and the opportunities to see students and teachers was a unique experience. In Melaka I visited a primary school with 477 students, catering for 196 Malay students, 135 Chinese students and 122 Indian students. I was invited to teach a Grade 5 Maths class for an hour and spent several hours discussing issues with the principal and staff. In Kuching, the main city in Sarawak on the island of Borneo we were stunned by the reception that we received from one of the High schools that we visited. We were overwhelmed by the hospitality from our hosts. It was a rock star reception. In Kuching we also spent time looking at the issues involved in saving Orang-utans and the threat from palm oil plantations. We visited a National Park and saw Orang-utans in the semi wild and spent time at the Matag rehabilitation centre. We attended a briefing from one of the palm oil companies to hear the other side of the story."
Supporting implementation of the Australian Curriculum
"Study programs play an important role in stimulating teachers to address the cross-curriculum priorities. Next week I will be presenting to our entire staff on the benefits of such programs and I will promote Asia across the curriculum. I also see where I can make connections with staff in other learning areas and help them develop ways to address these priorities. For example, looking at Islamic art in Maths or sharing with the Science team the amazing experiments on sustainability I saw in the school in Malacca or encouraging the Art team to try batik making. In particular the school visits and the Sarawak activities were very supportive in this area…Lastly, as a teacher of Chinese history, I felt that I learnt a great deal about the Chinese diaspora by visiting all the Chinatowns".
"It was a really wonderful and enriching experience…Travelling with a group of educators is a wonderful way to enrich your perspectives through the diversity of interests and skills of participants, from environmental science teachers to history, maths, arts, school leaders and generalists."
The Asia Education Foundation wishes to thank the Australia-Malaysia Institute for its funding support of this study program to Malaysia.
