Max McDowell is a Jungian analyst who has been in private practice in New York for the past 23 years. Here he analyzes a story from ancient Egypt.
Egyptian merchant ship.
Picture: Armament history
A Count had to report to the Pharaoh (on a failed expedition?). The good attendant tried to lend him courage by relating his own 'similar' adventure:
On a voyage to the Mine Country the attendant's ship and able sailors were destroyed in a storm and he was cast up on an island where good food grew.
A huge gold-clad serpent took the attendant in his mouth, carried him to his resting place, and made him tell the story of his voyage so far.
Then the serpent consoled the attendant by relating something similar that had happened to him: a star fell on the island and burnt up all his kin. Time heals.
The serpent told the attendant the would spend four months on the island; then a ship would arrive from the Pharaoh's Residence and take him home to his family.
The attendant promised that the Pharaoh would reward the serpent with luxuries from Egypt.
The serpent laughed at his vanity, saying he (the serpent) was the Ruler of Punt, the home of myrrh and fine oil. When the attendant left, the island would disappear underwater.
When the ship came, the serpent gave him a fine cargo of African luxuries. The Pharaoh, in turn, rewarded the attendant richly.
The Count responded cynically. He expected to be executed.
How have others interpreted this tale?
What follows are some published interpretations summarized in wikipedia under The tale of the shipwrecked sailor:
For some the meaning is transparently that it is a tale intended as a source of inspiration or reassurance for the noble mind, perhaps similar to something like a courtly creation intended for the royal ear or otherwise for the considering of aristocratic persons. Nevertheless, interpretation of the story has changed from the naive initial understanding of the story as a simplistic tale of the folk tradition, into a sophisticated analysis, developed into which the narrative is shown to have complexity and depth: a shipwrecked traveller engages upon a spiritual endeavour (or quest), journeying through the cosmos, to meet a primordial god, thus providing to the traveller a gift of moral vision to return with to Egypt. Further, Richard Mathews writes that this "oldest fantasy text contains archetypal narrative of the genre: an uninitiated hero on a sea journey is thrown off course by a storm, encounters an enchanted island, confronts a monster, and survives, wiser for the experience.", commenting additionally that the monster (snake) is the prototype for "the greatest fantasy monster of all time - the dragon, sometimes called the 'wurm'."
Such explanations may be correct but they do not go very far. What follows is my interpretation, using the techniques of dream analysis. In particular I ask the symbolic, psychological meaning of each image. This is not purely academic: it includes not only a rational process of analysis, but also the symbolic understanding sometimes needed to appreciate poetry. Fairy tales are like poems that tell a story. As in a poem, every detail has meaning.
The island of the serpent: the creative process
(Complete text with interpretation and footnotes)
.. And the good attendant1 said:
Good news, Count! See, we have reached home! The mallet has been taken in hand and the mooring-stake driven in, the tying-up rope having been placed on land. They are giving praise, and thanking God; they are all embracing one another. Our crew has returned in good order; there is none missing from our expedition. We reached Lower Nubia, we have passed Bigah.2 See then, we have returned in peace, we have reached our own land.
Listen to me, Count; I am not over-talkative. Wash yourself, pour water over your fingers. Then will you answer when you are addressed, and speak to the King with presence of mind; you will answer without hesitation. A man's mouth saves him: his speech obtains indulgence for him. But do as you wish; talking to you thus wearies you.
I will relate to you, then, something similar which happened to myself when I went to the Mine-country for the Sovereign.
The Count feared to tell his story to the Pharaoh. The attendant told his own story to the Count. Within that story, the attendant recounted how he told, to the serpent, the story of his voyage thus far and how the serpent, in turn, told his story. When he returned from his own voyage, the attendant told his story to the Pharaoh. Amen'o, son of Ameny, transcribed the over-arcing story that we read. These many stories within stories show that story-telling is a main theme.
A story has meaning at both the literal and the symbolic level. At the symbolic level every story works through unconscious potential and brings it closer to consciousness.
In the attendant's story that process - working through and bringing closer to consciousness - is also specifically portrayed by the images themselves. Luxury oils and scents (psychologically evocative material) were found in a mysterious island (an unknown realm of awareness - unconscious potential - distinct from the main realm) and brought back to the mainland. The island then disappeared underwater (became more deeply unconscious). The island was ruled by a serpent. A serpent travels from one world to the next by slipping through narrow spaces, just as unconscious potential slips through repression barriers into consciousness, for example as a dream.
Thus repeated images confirm that the attendant's story is about expanding consciousness through a journey into and out of unconscious potential.
Repetitions are essential to this interpretation because they provide internal evidence that we are on the right track. Without such evidence, my interpretation would be only one of many plausible guesses.
The attendant's story began with his boat's measurements and the number of sailors and their strengths:
I went down to the sea in a ship of 120 cubits in length and 40 cubits in width,3 in which were 120 sailors, of the best of Egypt; whether they looked at the sky or whether they looked at the land, their hearts were stouter than lions'. They foretold a storm before it had come, and foul weather before it had arisen.

Here consciousness was overdetermined. Threatened by this voyage into unknown worlds, it needed to reassure itself that it has everything under control.
No sooner had the sailors' ability to foretell storms been asserted, than the ship was surprised by a storm.
The storm broke out while we were yet on the sea, before we could make the land. The wind arose and made a great noise, with waves eight cubits4 high. The wave even struck the mast.5

The ship perished, and of those that were in it not one survived except me. Then I was cast on an island by a wave of the sea.
So much for conscious control! This idea is repeated later when the serpent laughed at the attendant for promising that the Pharaoh will send luxuries to Punt.
In the beginning of therapy, anxiety about conscious control is common. A businessman wants to be sure our work is productive. He asks for clear guidelines. I tell him that our meeting is unique and we cannot know how it will unfold: we'll have to see.
Natural bounty
The attendant hid.
I spent three days alone, with only my heart for my companion, lying within a shelter of wood, and I clung to the shade.6
Abandoned by his conscious strengths, he was in shock and had to wait. Then he was driven out by an instinct (rather than conscious will).
Then I got to my feet to find out what I could put in my mouth. I found figs and grapes there, and all kinds of fine vegetables; sycamore figs of two kinds were there, and cucumbers as though they were cultivated. Both fish and fowl were there; there is nothing that was not in that island. Then I ate my fill. I put food aside, because I had so much by me, and having shaped a fire-stick I kindled fire, and made a burnt-offering to the gods.

The idea here is 'The Lord will provide.' When we trust and let go of control then unconscious potential takes care of us with its natural bounty, which was there all along though we were blind to it.
The serpent
Then he met an astonishing beast. Again, his conscious knowledge of things proved inadequate.
Then I heard a thunderous noise, which I felt sure was a wave of the sea: the trees were splitting, the earth was shaking. When I uncovered my face I found that it was a serpent that was coming. He was thirty cubits long, and his beard was more than two cubits long.7 His body was plated with gold, his eyebrows were of real lapis lazuli; he was extremely intelligent.

The serpent Ruler was 'extremely intelligent' which means, paradoxically, that the center of unconscious potential has its own strong consciousness. This repeats the meaning of the above-the-water-level island itself (a bountiful realm of consciousness, distinct from what seems to us the main realm.)
While the idea of consciousness within unconscious potential seems fanciful, we are constantly confronted with evidence for it. Again and again we see that dreams are exquisitely tailored to communicate to us a new insight, one which we are ready to receive though it surprises us. Who or what tailors it? There seems to be another source of intelligence operating outside of consciousness.
Dreams and creativity
At least, this is how it looks from our conscious perspective. In my article Jungian therapy and biology, in the section Purpose and dreams, I argue that an 'intelligent' dream might be created by the following mechanism:
a) novel sequences of images spontaneously self-assemble;
b) a sequence which seems meaningful spontaneously self-selects by means of its affinity to conscious concerns;
c) the educated mind, operating outside of awareness, formulates that sequence into a dream.
There is evidence for this mechanism: Dreams sometimes use verbal language which must be generated by the educated mind; if we speak english, the dream uses english. Dreams also use irony and humor which are characteristics of consciousness.
In addition, we already know that creativity itself is the product of just such a collaboration: A creative person first educates his or her skills and then 'forgets everything' he or she has learned. Then images emerge from unconscious potential (meaningful images spontaneously self-select) already partly formulated by the skills which the creative person has learned.
An image in myth directly supports this idea: in the ballad Janet and Tam Lin (analyzed on this website), Tam Lin was once a mortal knight who was pulled off his horse and taken into the unconscious by the Fairy Queen. Had she kept him he would have been sent to hell (madness), but he was rescued by Janet, another mortal. While still trapped in the Queen's world, he inseminates Janet with his sperm and talks to her, explaining how she can claim him for herself, again by pulling him of his horse. Thus the phallic spirit which resides in the unconscious - but which can be engaged in relationship - was originally derived from consciousness.
This explanation for dreams may seem heretical but it corresponds closely with what Jung himself said: that dreams are the product of the Self, which is the totality of the psyche and encompasses both conscious and unconscious activity.
Facing unconscious potential
The serpent demanded that the attendant tell his own story. The attendant fainted from awe and dread. This encounter represents the climax of the tale, the moment of greatest tension when consciousness first confronts unconscious potential.
A patient, 'George', had the following dream (more than 15 years ago; it is reproduced and discussed with his permission):
In Manhattan, amongst skyscrapers, a group of crows set off in flight together. Above them a hawk watched, then followed, as though waiting to catch them. George and a native american man walked beneath them. The trailing crow circled down, afraid, and landed on the native american's hand for refuge. The hawk circled closer. George slashed at it as it glided by. Then it came towards him and he realized it wanted to land on his hand. He held up his hand and a magnificent wolf-hawk chimera looked down at him as it landed. It seemed carnivorous, fierce, but intelligent and friendly.
When he woke George felt overwhelmed by the creature's power.
George made several paintings of the wolf-hawk. Its head occupied the whole page: triangular, with pointed black nose, ears pointed up, and steeply slanted eyes. Behind were rough down-stretched bird's wings. It stood on bird's feet. It was first grey then red-brown.
The crow is Odin's bird; it was associated with death and doom and with the ability to see the future. Apparently George had first to accept these qualities in himself (first the crow landed.) They were probably his mother's witch-like qualities. George's symbolic capacity - the ability to understand an image as the best possible representation of a reality which remains mysterious - had previously seemed limited. Because his mother had sometimes been crazy, he had feared symbolic thought as potentially crazy. Now he had to accept his intuitive, symbolic thoughts without being overwhelmed by a sense of doom.
As George painted the chimera, symbolic awareness seemed to come alive for him. He said that when the wolf-hawk landed he had been startled by the creature's 'realness' and power. He seemed to be describing the sudden emergence of his symbolic capacity. Certainly the paradox of the chimera demanded symbolic rather than literal understanding.
For George, as for the attendant, the confrontation was a moment of greatest tension.
The attendant had to assert himself
He addressed me, while I was on my belly before him, and said to me, 'What has brought you, what has brought you, little one, what has brought you? If you delay in telling me what has brought you to this island, I will cause you to find yourself burnt up, having become one who cannot be seen.' He went on speaking to me but I heard it not; I was on my belly before him and had become unconscious.
Then he placed me in his mouth and carried me off to his resting-place. He set me down, and I was unscathed; I was safe and sound, not being overpowered. He addressed me while I was on my belly before him, and said to me,
'What has brought you, what has brought you, little one, what has brought you to this island of the sea, whose borders are in the waters?'
Seven times the serpent repeated his demand, threatening if he delayed to incinerate him, to make him 'one who cannot be seen'. Later the serpent proved to be benevolent. Why was the serpent's threat so drastic? Nothing in this text is arbitrary or without meaning. The outcome of the whole voyage apparently hung upon the attendant telling his own story. Why was it so important that he tell his own story?
To understand the serpent's demand, it helps to look at an amplification from a Hungarian tale called Pretty Maid Ibronka.
Ibronka spied through the keyhole of a church door upon her suitor, the Devil. He was eating the brains of corpses. The Devil demanded that she say what she saw.
The keyhole represents the narrow field of view by which consciousness may view unconscious potential: we see only a fragment of unconscious potential when we have a dream. (Thus, in the Egyptian story, the attendant could not listen to everything the serpent said.)
The Devil was doing something unspeakable, something incomprehensibly evil which, to preserve her human feeling, Ibronka could not relate. Had she succumbed to the Devil's demand she would have been doomed. So she told her story from her own human perspective, omitting what she saw through the keyhole. Again and again she told her own version of her story and thus defeated and finally killed the Devil.
Ibronka shows that, when facing unconscious potential, consciousness must formulate its own point of view; it must not allow its view to be controlled by unconscious potential, least it (consciousness) be 'made invisible' or swallowed up.
When I first interpret a story I'm liable to be seduced by its beauty. I'm tempted just to retell it, feeling that it speaks for itself and needs no translation.
This is because, like a dream, an authentic story confronts us directly with the mental process of unconscious potential. The siren of unconscious potential calls us to abandon conscious powers, to drown ourselves. Odysseus had to chain himself to the mast.
How creativity works
I have to meet unconscious potential with conscious analysis - to allow a dialogue between partners that are equal but different. Then something new can happen.
All of this explains why, in our Egyptian tale, the attendant had to tell his story:
Then I made answer to him, my arms being bent before him,8 and said to him, 'I went down to the Mine Country, on business of the Sovereign, in a ship of 120 cubits in length and 40 cubits in width, in which were 120 sailors, of the best of Egypt; whether they looked at the sky or whether they looked at the land, their hearts were stouter than lions'. They foretold a storm before it had come, and foul weather before it had arisen. Everyone of them was stouter of heart and stronger of hand than his fellow; there was no fool among them. The storm broke out while we were yet on the sea, before we could make the land. The wind arose and made a great noise, with waves eight cubits high. The wave even struck the mast. The ship perished, and of those that were in it not one survived except me, and here I am in your presence. I was brought to this island by a wave of the sea.'
The serpent was sensitive to his fear:
And he said to me, 'Do not fear, do not fear, little one, do not avert your face; you have reached me; see, God has preserved you that he might bring you to this island to please me. There is nothing that is not in it, it is full of all good things.
See, you will spend month upon month on this island until you have completed four months, and a ship will arrive from the Residence9 in which will be sailors who are known to you. You will go away with them to the Residence, and you will die in your city.'
Then the serpent got into the spirit of things by telling his own story:
How glad is he who relates what he has experienced, when painful things are past! Now I will relate to you something similar which happened in this island. I was in it with my kinsmen, and children were among them: we amounted to seventy-five serpents, my children and my kinsmen, without my mentioning to you the daughter whom I gained through prayer.10 Then a star fell, and these went up in fire through it. It chanced that I was not with them; they were burnt, and I was not in their midst. Then I died for them,11 when I found them to be a single heap of corpses.
A true conversation had arisen between the serpent and the attendant, in the course of which new and unexpected things emerged. Now we can see that the tale shows how creativity works. Creativity arises from a conversation between consciousness and unconscious potential, a conversation in which neither has the upper hand.
I only discovered this layer of meaning because I reminded myself that nothing in the tale is arbitrary (letting unconscious potential speak through the details of images) and then asked why (letting consciousness intervene): why did the serpent demand so fiercely that the attendant tell his story?
The serpent continued:
But if you have enough patience you will embrace your children, you will kiss your wife, and see your house, and these things are best of all; you will reach your home in which you were, in the midst of your kinsmen.'
What meaning do the two stories have in common? The attendant lost his ship and all its crew; the serpent lost all his kinsmen and children. Each loss was due to an act of god. Both the attendant and the serpent paid a high price to reach this bountiful island.
Both stories show that individual consciousness requires sacrifice, and that sacrifice is imposed by a power greater than consciousness. Analysis is hard work and it does not begin until the person has already suffered.
The serpent's story
Falling Star
Photo: © Bob Keck, 2002
Why this particular image - a falling star? Because the serpent was a god, it makes sense that his sacrifice was imposed by a star while the attendant's was imposed by a wave. Though the two conversed back and forth they did not exist on the same plane: consciousness is individual, limited in time and location, while unconscious potential is universal, omnipresent and eternal. The contrast between star and wave emphasizes the staggering difference between them and thus emphasizes the difficulty of a creative dialogue in which neither partner has the upper hand.
The specific content of the image repeats and thus confirms this interpretation: a star from the heavens is falling to become a rock on the earth, moving between the two realms. It is like the image of Icarus falling which also emphasizes the tension between heaven and earth. Creativity is like a star falling to earth.
The attendant boasted how the Pharaoh might reward the serpent:
Crouching on my belly I touched the ground before him [with my forehead], and then said to him, 'I will describe your might to the Sovereign, and cause him to be acquainted with your greatness. I will send you fine oils and perfumes, and the incense of the temples wherewith every god is propitiated, and I will relate what has happened, having in mind what I have seen through his [the Sovereign's] might. Thanks shall be returned to you in the Capital, in the presence of the Council of the entire land. I will slaughter oxen for you as a burnt-offering, and wring the necks of fowl for you. And I will send you ships laden with all the luxuries of Egypt, as should be done for a god who loves men in a far country that men know not.'
Then he laughed at me, and at this that I had said as being vanity in his opinion, and said to me, 'You have not much myrrh and every kind of incense12 but I am the Ruler of Punt,13 and myrrh belongs to me. And that fine oil which you said should be brought is the chief thing of this island. And it shall come about that when you depart from here, nevermore will you see this island; it will have become water.'
This passage shows that consciousness has an exaggerated sense of its own power - it does not understand that it is created by, and dependent upon, unconscious potential.
At the collective level we deny that our survival depends entirely upon the health of our ecosystem.
Six times the attendant said he was 'on his belly' before the serpent. Why does the story insist that unconscious potential must be faced reverently, with awe, as the highest value?
Like dreams, fairytales compensate for one-sidedness in the attitudes of prevailing consciousness. The reverent attitude portrayed here probably compensated for prevailing consciousness which, even in ancient Egypt, exaggerated its own importance.
That ship came, even as he had previously foretold. And I went and set myself on a high tree, and I recognized those who were in the ship. I went to announce the matter, but found that he knew it. And he said to me, 'Farewell, farewell, little one, to your house, that you may see your children. Let my repute be good in your city; see, that is all I require of you.'
Once the attendant had entered into dialogue with him, the serpent was consistently friendly.
The serpent asked only that 'my repute be good in your city'. He wanted to broaden conscious awareness. This repeats what is shown in many fairytales, that consciousness is an expression of unconscious potential.
Unconscious potential is a part of nature. Nature is forever promoting life and only asks that we relate to it. It is only destructive when we won't relate to it. So it is with unconscious potential.
There are many images of relating: Four times the serpent called the attendant 'little one,' expressing his parental feeling (he also carries the attendant in his mouth as a parental serpent might). The serpent spoke lovingly of his own children and his grief at their death. Three times he reassured the attendant that he would again embrace his wife and children.
These repetitions, together with the conversation between equals already discussed, mean that the story insists upon loving relationship. Relationship may be with unconscious potential or it may be with other people: each of these forms of relationship supports the other. To relate is to expand consciousness.
Then I cast myself on my belly before him, my arms bent. And he gave me a cargo of myrrh, fine oil, various gums, essences and perfumes, eye-paint, giraffes' tails, a great packet of incense, elephants' tusks, swift hounds, monkeys, apes, and all good and costly things. And I loaded them on to this ship.

When I had cast myself on my belly to thank him, he said to me, 'See, you will reach the Residence within two months and will embrace your children and grow young again at the Residence, and be embalmed [there].'
The serpent's gifts show that the crafts and creative products which enrich consciousness are derived from unconscious potential - they must be revered as sacred.
The return
Then I went down to the shore, near this ship, and I called to the soldiers who were in it. I gave praise on the shore to the lord of this island, and those who were in the ship did likewise.
We sailed away northwards to the Residence of the Sovereign, and we arrived at the Residence in two months, exactly as he had said. Then I entered in to the Sovereign and presented to him these gifts which I had brought from this island. And he thanked me in the presence of the Council of the entire land. Then I was made an attendant, and was endowed with two hundred head of slaves.

In ancient Egypt consciousness appeared to be relatively open to the symbolic level. This may be why the attendant's return with the serpent's gifts was so easy. A modern person may feel intense conflict and anxiety - and lose sleep - when he or she incarnates unconscious potential.
A plug for listening
Behold me, after I had reached land, after I saw what I had experienced. Listen to my utterance. See, it is good to listen to people.
Again, the attendant insisted, story-telling and listening to stories - having reverence for the symbolic realm - was important. It would help one to prosper.
The Count was not impressed.
Then the Count said to him, 'Do not play the virtuous man, friend. Does one give water to a bird the day before when it is going to be killed in the morning?'

Kick-Ass 3 is an American comic book series published by Marvel Comics' Icon Comics imprint. Created by writer Mark Millar and penciler John Romita Jr., it is a sequel to the Kick-Ass and Kick-Ass 2 and the spinoff miniseries Hit-Girl. It premiered in 2013 and ran for eight issues.
The first issue of Kick-Ass 3 was released July 2, 2013.[1]
The eighth and final issue of Kick-Ass 3 was released on August 6, 2014, concluding the series as a whole.[2]
This article's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. (May 2014) |
After the events of Kick-Ass 2, Mindy McCready (a.k.a. Hit-Girl) is in jail, while Dave Lizewski (a.k.a. Kick-Ass) graduates high school and continues to dedicate his life to fighting organized crime; however, his attempts continue to fall short: Justice Forever refuses to help him free Hit-Girl from prison and Lieutenant Stripes is shot and killed by Angela Genovese, the Motherfucker's (Chris Genovese) mother, while trying to kill Chris in order to avenge his brother, Colonel Stars.
The Motherfucker recovers from his injuries even as his mother becomes a pariah due to her son's mass murder spree. Corrupt police officer Vic Gigante (promoted to Captain after arresting Hit-Girl and her guardian, Detective Marcus Williams) contacts the Motherfucker's Italian uncle, Don Rocco "Ice-Man" Genovese to save his nephew. They ultimately arrange for an unnamed mob enforcer to take credit for spearheading the neighborhood-wide massacre and gang rape of Kick-Ass's love interest Katie Deauxma, clearing Chris's name, while Rocco moves to take over the mob's operations in the city.
Lizewski finishes high school and gets a job working at a fast food restaurant (and part-time at a comic shop) with his friend Todd, with whom he shares an apartment. After a fight with a gang, Kick-Ass meets a woman named Valerie and starts dating her. At the party being held to celebrate Chris's release, Kick-Ass arranges to get the members of Justice Forever to help him raid the party and send a warning to the mob. The plan fails, but Kick-Ass is rescued by his friends who abandon him at the first sign of mob retaliation at the party. Rocco then takes Jimmy, who was head of security for the party, and has Chris beat him up, before he kills Jimmy himself with an ice pick.
Elsewhere, Hit-Girl confides to her psychiatrist (after being bribed with Hello Kitty trading cards, which she proclaims are her only vice) that she has managed to circumvent the prison's security so as to allow her to wander around at night, killing problematic inmates. Furthermore, she talks about how her father created his false backstory, with help from Marcus, in order to manipulate her into continuing her training to become Hit-Girl. During her imprisonment, Mindy meets her mother for the first time since the latter found out about Hit-Girl, and despite Mindy fearing that she would be unhappy, her mother instead praises her for fighting crime much to the psychiatrist's dismay.
Later, Gigante and three other cops don costumes and rob Rocco as the Skull & Bones Gang, with the intention of amassing a fortune and leaving New York before Rocco can take control of the East Coast. In response, Rocco orders the killing of everyone found in a mask, resulting in the deaths of Insect Man, The Juicer, Moon Girl, and Dr. Gravity, and the kidnapping of Todd. In jail, Mindy is drugged by a group of corrupt guards working for Rocco, who plans to have Chris execute Mindy in front of all the other gang leaders on the Eastern Seaboard.
At the mercy of Chris, Mindy is saved when he, out of guilt for how his actions turned his mother into a pariah, turns and kills the corrupt guards, getting mortally wounded during the gunfight. Helping Mindy escape in a van, Chris accidentally crashes due to his injuries, and dies of his wounds. The police, also working for Rocco, find his body later. Mindy is caught by a police officer but is saved by Dave, who kills the police officer by bashing him in the back of the head and sticking his baton in the wound. The duo return to Justice Forever HQ after having learned from Chris that all the gang leaders will be gathering in a boathouse, and go their separate ways; Mindy goes to Rocco's meeting in a speedboat, intending to kill all the gang leaders assembled there, while Dave goes to save Todd in Big Daddy's monster truck. Dave calls Valerie and tells her what he's doing; she protests, but he insists that he has to save Todd. Subsequently, an anonymous tipster alerts Gigante that Dave and Mindy will be at Rocco's meeting.
Mindy raids the meeting, killing Rocco as well as everyone else there. Gigante and the rest of the corrupt cops arrive as she is leaving and hold her at gunpoint. Meanwhile, Dave attacks the warehouse where Todd is being held hostage. He takes out the two thugs who are beating Todd, but then the rest come up from the basement and overpower him. Dave momentarily despairs, but after a hallucination of his parents, he jams a live electric wire into a puddle of alcohol all the thugs are standing in, killing them all. Across town, Mindy reveals to the cops that she was the anonymous tipster, before triggering explosives that kill all of the corrupt police officers except for Gigante. She then maims Gigante by shooting out his pelvis and informing him that he will be turning state's evidence.
After some time passes, Dave remains in a stable relationship with Valerie and has abandoned his super hero identity, instead joining the police force. Marcus was cleared of all charges thanks to Gigante's testimony and has rooted out the remaining corrupt elements from the police force. Angie Genovese and Mindy's mother have become close friends. Mindy remains an active vigilante, killing criminals across the world, though she never contacts Dave again she did however give flowers to her mother once every years similar to the flowers her father gave to her.
The comic ends with a callback to the first scene of the first comic, where Skybird, an applicant for Justice Forever that was chased away by the Juicer, jumping off a building and using a suit of armor he built to fly away.
In a 'post credits scene', Mindy shows up at the house of a bullied kid with Kick-Ass's uniform, announcing that she is now going to train him to be a superhero.
The last issue reveals that Nemesis, The Secret Service: Kingsman ,Superior and ''MPH'' all take place in the same universe as Kick-Ass. Additionally, Jupiter's Legacy, and ''Supercrooks'', are movies in the Kick-Ass universe.

How does your pet sleep?

Thanks for your inquiry! He's 10 years old and is about 16 inches long, including the tail. Funny thing is, he's been moving around the past few days, ever since I made the post about how he does nothing all day but sleep.
maybe I have a telepathic dragon!
If you're thinking about getting one, I would highly recommend them. You don't have to walk them, they don't shed and they make little to no noise! It's like a tiny dinosaur as a pet!

Guess it answers the question about if animals dream, huh? Wow, he was really in a deep dream alright....
My 4 Chihuhuas sleep in the bed with us, and pretty much are dead to the world while sleeping. Our black Lab/Chow sleeps in front of our bedroom door (he's guarding us, I guess). He does come up on the bed for attention before he does though. Our cats mostly roam around the house at night...though occasionally sleep up with the dogs on the bed.
My birds sleep in their cages, and if a window or door is opened up at night (even by us), our Cockatoo will launch into a series of alarm like shrieks. (and at 168db, we'll hear her (as will our neighbors across the pasture)). Our Boxer/Pit sleeps in the bed with our ranch hand gal, but he's pretty restless as a sleeper.

My boy does the chasing bunnies thing sometimes and also the sleep brrrruuuffff. Sometimes he'll whine or make a little yip noise and that always freaks me out (I'm usually half asleep and it takes me a minute to figure out what made the noise). I wake him up if it sounds like he's having a dog nightmare. He also makes a lot of contended sighs and is a bed hog. A few times he's stretched so hard he's fallen off the bed. Doofus.

My dog sleeps in a couple different places usually. He has a bed that is on the floor and he loves it. He piles his toys on top then snuggles with them. If he isn't on his bed he is in my bed taking up all the space! He will spread out on his back and have his mouth wide open and tongue hanging out. Sometimes he even snores lol.
Here is Rosco taking over the bed the other night lol
Mouth open and all!! LOL i can't stop laughing when I look at this picture. He is too funny!
My cat sleeps wherever, usually she is on the porch. She loves the porch! If she comes in the room she takes over my "pillow palace" that i have set up so I can sleep. Being 8mths pregnant it gets difficult to get comfy! I have pillows piled up in a manner so I can sleep semi sitting up. She just plops her fluffy butt right in the middle like she owns the place. lol She is almost always right next to me if she is in the bedroom. It is funny because if the dog is already on the bed with me she will literally climb right on and over him to get to her spot. He just freezes with the look of fear lol.
I tell them both they will have to share me soon!!

Awe cute kitties!
My cat likes to sleep on my chest too but I'm 8mths pregnant so it's very uncomfortable having her up there. She tries but i have to push her away lol. She has always slept in that spot since we adopted her. My fiancee loves when she does it. She gets all comfy and just purrs away!

Maybe he did read your mind that you were concerned bout him.
Sounds like a good pet.
I bet there aren't many apartments managers who would say no to reptiles, unless you have a pet boa (not that there's anything wrong with that, as long as you're familiar with handling them or just cautious with how you keep your pet
) or something.

I know my cats (I've seen the cats with their whiskers or paws twitching guess they must be dreaming something and respond to it mostly the same way a dog does) always just roamed around the house, at night until they decided to settle down, the dogs that I've had either slept at the foot or next to the bed, I too have had birds, and once they got settled and covered for the night they were pretty quiet.
I've never owned an exotic bird, although I knew someone whose moved to another now, but she and her husband had about four of them at one time.

I bet that startled him too, poor guy. Too bad you couldn't have gotten a picture of the look on his face.
Maybe with the little yips and yelps in his sleep he's talking to another dog in his dreams.

Nothing like the sleeping contented like he does (the sleep of no worries), I can imagine he doesn't understand what the cat is doing entering in his territory.
Most of the time a cats do act like they think they own the place,
and they have their special nooks and crannies they like to go to sleep. Your cat is discerning for certain, likes to have one of the most comfortable spots around and away from the dog I'm sure.
I know dogs are usually pretty sympathetic and protective when they have someone defenseless like a baby around them,
on occassion I've heard of cats being that way too.

The Pulp Fiction star's 16-year-old son died in January after suffering a seizure while on a family vacation in the Bahamas.
Five months later, Travolta is still devastated by the tragedy -- often breaking down into tears, according to Washington, who has been speaking to his co-star over the phone.
And Travolta has elected not to help promote the upcoming remake of the classic 1970s thriller while he is still in mourning.
Washington explains, "One moment he's OK and the next he's in tears... Needless to say, he's struggling. So more than talking to him, I listened to him, for about two or three hours.
"What can you say, really? Just be there as a friend, because he's such a sweet, sweet person. Our prayers are with he and his wife."

Diallel Anaysis of Oil Production Components in Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.)

Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) has the potential to become a major source of biodiesel, but for market viability, peanut oil yields must increase. Oil yield in peanut is influenced by many different components, including oil concentration, seed mass, and mean oil produced per seed. All of these traits can potentially be improved through selection as long as there is sufficient genetic variation. To assess the variation for these traits, a diallel mating design was used to estimate general combining ability, specific combining ability, and heritability. General combining ability estimates were significant for oil concentration, weight of 50 sound mature kernels (50 SMK), and mean milligrams oil produced per SMK (OPS). Specific combining ability was significant for oil concentration. Reciprocal effects were detected for OPS. Narrow-sense heritability estimates were very high for oil concentration and 50 SMK and low for OPS. The low OPS heritability estimate was caused by the negative correlation between oil concentration and seed size. Consequently, oil concentration and seed mass alone can be improved through early generation selection, but large segregating populations from high oil crosses will be needed to identify progeny with elevated oil concentrations that maintain acceptable seed sizes.

In the mean time, our group still quality ufc coming in 2010 if we suffer Ultimate fighting championship series 137 on the September 29, alongside freakouts ultimately needing to find out if Georges Street.

What to expect when you're expecting (an acceptance letter)
4.15 / 5.00 4,288 ViewsIf you liked our stuff, you can expect to see more in the near future. If you have any questions you should either email us or try our forum.
This cartoon was adapted from a short comic strip I did about ten years ago in which the protagonist suffered much less bodily harm than in the current animated version. This cartoon is actually the third incarnation as there was a previous cartoon version which I abandoned a couple years ago due to the fact that it kinda sucked.
Hopefully you'll enjoy this one though. It's extremely violent so it should appeal to everyone.
Feel free to tell me what you think, unless of course its just some inane comment like "I think the guy's voice sounds retarded," or some silly crap about "glorifying violence," because this cartoon is very goofy and has no bearing on reality whatsoever and if, for some reason, it still causes you to start foaming at the mouth in rage, then you're much more screwed up than I am.

Town sign keeper Towns
14 Aug 2008 - 07:32:51
Macclesfield Town have completed the signing of goalkeeper Matt Towns.
The youngster had previously only played at University level, but manager Keith Alexander was happy that Towns could fill an important hole.
"It is important that Jon Brain has competition for his place and Matt has the chance to show me he is the capable of doing just that," Alexander explained to the club's official website.
"He has not got a great deal of experience, but he has played at quite a high level whilst at University so he clearly has the ability.
"From what I've seen and what (coach) Steve Cherry has said to me, he is certainly a prospect worth looking at."

I hope all the Wolf listeners had a great Christmas! We end a decade this week. It's amazing to look back at all we've been through in the last ten years. The one thing that defines this decade would have to be 9/11 The single most deadly attack on American soil by a foreign enemy. So many other things happened but all pales in comparison to that moment in time. I hope that the next decade will allow all of us to heal and prosper. A very happy new year for all of us! (WP)

text: We stayed for a week and have to say the house was perfect to get away from it all and relax. Although we did not meet the owner after speaking to her on the phone she could not do enough to help. She ensured that there was loads left out for the kids to do. The house itself we thought was a luxury and a great base to come back to after exploring beautiful Donegal. The area has so much to offer and the locals were very friendly. It is in a great location for great beaches and day trips to places like the Giants Causeway. more

Recall ??Submitted by Guest 43 (not verified) on Thu, 09/08/2011 - 4:59pm.
I live in New Bern, and we had very similar situation arise. Simply put, check the City Charter for Wilmington. Is there a provision for a recall procedure? If not, Wilmington will like New Bern was STUCK. A recall procedure can be added, but it would involve the state legislature and would not apply to the current situation. Collect your petitions and use them to convince your Representative and Senate member to sponsor a local bill to amend the charter. »

"TELL YOU - THE PLACE THAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED" Andrew_Liu's Profile
I live in HANGZHOU now.
Hangzhou is a beautiful city. She also is one of seven famous ancient capital cities in CHINA, and is regarded as "Paradise on Earth"
Hangzhou is a prosperous city, but she is even more a garden city. The pictures in my page can prove it.
The world has changed more and will change continuously. A tourist need not only know its present, and its past. So there are my pages of today and yesterday.
I will complete my pages gradually.
Welcome to my travel pages.
Gu An, a small town in Hebei province. But I hadn't visited here till I worked for many years. There is no any relative or friend here till now. In China, hometown isn't a clear concept. Some people follow his father's, the others – his birthed place. I am the former.
A part of original GU AN becomes suburb of BEIJING now.
My birthplace is HARBIN – a big city in Northeast of China. I have studied in primary and middle school here. About one century before, a lot of Russian came to live here. So you can find many building having Russian style. Some people named HARBIN "Eastern Moscow".
Beijing – the place where I completed my school work – senior high school and university. I prepared knowledge for fighting in after years.BEIJING is the capital and culture center of CHINA. The quantity and quality of univercity are the first in China. It is a good place for seeking knowledge.
Picture shows one of the typical building of a famous univercity.
Then I came to LANZHOU - the first city I startedmy life.
It was a wild city when I came here. There is a fun: people say "there are 3 feet dust when no wind, and dirt full streets when rain". You can see it in my picture.
But LANZHOU has become a lot already. It is a big industry city now.
Hangzhou – the city I settle down. About thirty years ago NIXON - president of USA, said that BEAUTIFUL West Lake and POOR city. But it becames a big beautiful garden now. Of course I will recommend Hangzhou as I could. You can see about this later.
It's an early morning of a street garden in picture.
I have visited many other cities including the most part of provinces in China. The provinces I haven't been to just two: XIZANG(TIBET) and XINJIANG, it is my pity. XIZANG is a wonderful place, but your heart must be very health: height above sea level is too high - average 4000 meter.
