Moon Knight: Marvel's Hero of Many Series
Warren Ellis' new Moon Knight series launches this week from Marvel, and it's the latest in a long history of Moon Knight ongoings!
Since Moon Knight was created by Doug Moench and Don Perlin in 1975's Werewolf by Night #32, the Fist of Khonshu has headlined nearly a dozen titles, and swapped identities, costumes, and supporting casts. The one motif that has stayed constant with Moon Knight is the very thing that sets him apart from Batman and other caped avengers: insanity. This peek into the psyche of an individual that suffers from severe mental health issues but still fights for justice has made Moon Knight unique in Marvel's pantheon. There have been a number of talented creators that tried to find the key to Moon Knight's publishing success, but few have ever really managed to bring Moon Knight to mainstream success.
The Early Days and Nights
Werewolf by Night #32-33 (1975)
Marvel Spotlight #28-29 (1976)
By Doug Moench and Don Perlin
Moon Knight was introduced as a foil to Marvel's Werewolf by Night. It all seemed very Batman, which was acceptable if Moon Knight was just going to be a supporting character in a monster book. Moon Knight's unique look made him popular with fans so Marvel gave the vigilante his own try out in the pages of Marvel Spotlight. This time, Doug Moench and Don Perlin created distinctions between Marc Spector and Bruce Wayne. Yes, Moon Knight had the European man Friday in his right hand man Frenchie, the palatial mansion, the billions, the girls, and the gadgets, but he also had a very different method of fighting crime. Marvel Spotlight not only gave readers their first glimpse into the man behind the cowl, it revealed that Spector would also operate as a cab driver named Jake Lockley in order to get closer to the criminal elements Moon Knight was sworn to stop. Not stopping at Lockley, Spector also masqueraded as Steven Grant, millionaire playboy. This playing with identities would become a Moon Knight staple as Spector would bounce around between the three, trying to find a balance and meaning through any of them. Soon, Frenchie would be fleshed out to much more than an Alfred clone and Moon Knight's constant love, Marlene Alraune, would be introduced to give the hero a diverse cast of players for the dramas ahead.
The Magazine Era
Hulk! Magazine in issues #11–15, #17–18, and #20; Marvel Preview #21
By Doug Moench, Gene Colan, Keith Pollard, and Bill Sienkiewicz (1978-1979)
After Marvel Spotlight, Moon Knight popped around the Marvel Universe before settling into a solo feature in the back of Hulk! Magazine and his own black-and-white one shot feature in Marvel Preview. These issues' claim to fame is the absolutely stunning art by some of the industry's finest talents. The magazine appearances began the long association between Moon Knight and Bill Sienkiewicz, the artist that would visually inform the character for a long time to come.
A Solo Series at Last!
Moon Knight #1-38 (1980-1983)
By Doug Moench, Bill Sienkiewicz, Jack C. Harris, Alan Zelenetz, Bo Hampton, Kevin Nowlan, Tony Isabella, and Richard Howell
The hero's first solo series finally revealed Moon Knight's origin, further removing the character from accusations that the silver caped warrior was simply a Batman clone. The monthly revealed Spector's background as a soldier of fortune in Egypt who was left to die at the hands of his brutal enemy, The Bushman. The god Khonshu promised to bring Spector back to life if the soldier would become an avatar of vengeance in Khonshu's name. Spector agreed and, wrapped in Khonshu's silver raiment, eventually fiound and defeated Bushman in single combat. Meanwhile, the first issue of the new series also revealed that Spector was the son of a Rabbi, so now fans had a pagan god blessing the son of a Jewish holy man with magical life to serve as a sort of golem against crime. The mental breakdown is sort of self explanatory, yes?
Seriously, the new Moon Knight was a celebration of comic's sheer insanity, a chaotic melding of concepts and worlds, mythological gods combined with real world religious dogma to create a hero like no other. At this point, Bill Sienkiewicz came into his own as an artist as the book built up some critical cache. Many of the adversaries in the book, such as Cyclone, Conquer Lord, Randall, the Hatchet Man, Midnight Man, and the Committee failed to become anything more than one-off antagonists, although the book did introduce Stained Glass Scarlet, a femme fatale that should have, could have, would have become Moon Knight's Electra. The historical importance of the title was the mood and tones that Moench, Sienkiewicz, and company set, a more mature and brooding book that targeted the adult comic buyers of the newly minted direct market.
The Fist of Khonshu and the West Coast Avengers
Moon Knight Vol. 2 #1-6 (1985)
By Alan Zelenetz, Chris Warner, Mary Jo Duffy, Jim Owsley, and Mike Beachum
West Coast Avengers #21-41 (1987-1989)
By Steve Englehart, Al Milgrom, Tom Defalco, and Tom Palmer
Moon Knight's second, short lived title abandoned the multiple identity angle and instead, had the wealthy Marc Spector travel the world opening art galleries. While a roaming artistic vigilante does have a certain daring and originality, it wasn't the direction fans seemed to want. The new series also saw alterations to Moon Knight's perfectly designed costume adding busy visual elements such as gold braces, a belt, and a big ankh. Marc Spector soon popped up in the pages of the West Coast Avengers where the usually solo vigilante joined the team. Sadly, this alliance was marred by the fact that for most of his run with the team, Spector was possessed by the Spirit of Khonshu. This moment created a rift between Moon Knight and the Avengers and also defined the character of Khonshu for years to come. He was no longer a magnanimous god, but a cruel puppet master that saw Spector as a hapless servant. This violation further fractured Spector's delicate psyche. Strangely, it was revealed that Khonshu possessed Spector because it was the god who wanted to join the team, not the hero.
Marc Spector: Moon Knight
Marc Spector: Moon Knight #1-60 (1989-1994)
By Chuck Dixon, J. M. DeMatteis, Terry Kavanagh, Sal Velluto, Ron Garney, Gary Kwapisz, James Fry, and Stephen Platt
Moon Knight's longest series, Marc Spector: Moon Knight ran for five years with some amazing stores by legends Chuck Dixon and J.M, DeMatteis that saw the urban hero interact with the rest of the Marvel Universe like never before. The book returned Spector to his vigilante roots, bringing the hero back to the street level mysticism that made him famous in the early 80s. The series saw the return of Bushman along with the introduction of a teen sidekick Midnight (probably not the best move for a character that was always being compared to Batman). The book fleshed out Spector, Frenchie, Marlene, and even Khonshu who was revealed to be a god of justice, not vengeance. Dixon and DeMatteis penned some of the best stories to ever grace a Moon Knight comic. Sadly, the excess of the '90s was soon to trump solid storytelling as the book was shoehorned into a number of crossovers like Acts of Vengeance and Infinity War, while countless guest-stars almost pushed Moon Knight out of his own feature. Oddly enough, it was at this time that Moon Knight would also experience its greatest sales success when newcomer Stephen Platt took over the art chores. The story was forgettable at best, but Platt's anatomy bending style fit so perfectly into the Image generation of comics, that Moon Knight became one of the hottest titles on the market for a brief time. With Platt's final issue, the series that started off as one of Marvel's coolest titles devolved into a crossover laden guest-star fest that killed off Marc Spector. At this point, death was old hat for Moon Knight who would not stay in the cold grave for long.
Moench Returns: Resurrection War and High Strangers
Moon Knight: Resurrection War #1-4 (1998)
By Doug Moench and Tommy Lee Edwards
Moon Knight: High Strangers By Doug Moench and Mark Texeira
Like all good mainstream superheroes, Moon Knight had to be resurrected at least once, and so he was, and happily, it was by returning creator Doug Moench who brought the wonderful strangeness back to the character in his two late '90 mini-series drawn by two of the most pitch perfect Moon Knight artists Marvel could have found. These series were a return to Moon Knight's roots, jettisoning the baggage of the 90s of sidekicks, adamantium suits, and guest star clutter, these two throwback stories were a breath of fresh air for fans wanting to get back to the pure and unapologetic weirdness that defined Moon Knight in the early days of the character.
A High Profile Update
Moon Knight Vol. 3 #1-30 (2006-2009)
By Charlie Huston, Mike Benson, David Finch, and Mico Suayan
Moon Knight had always been a fringe kind of character existing outside the flow of the Marvel Universe proper despite his brief stint as an Avenger. The 2006 relaunch was a whole different story as Marvel put a major marketing push behind the arrival of popular novelist Charlie Huston and mega-star penciller David Finch. Marvel seemed to be determined this time to force Moon Knight to work as more than just a periphery character, and boy, was it violent. The character had always been edgy, but in the first issue, Moon Knight defeats a returned Bushman by carving his face off with one of the vigilante's crescent moon darts. An increasingly broken and unstable Spector began to view the removed visage as a spiritual guide which he believed contained the spirit of Khonshu. So yes, Moon Knight carried around a hunk of rotting skin that he thought was a god. Makes the four personality thing seems like Norman Rockwell painting, huh? The series examined Moon Knight's role as the most unstable member of Marvel's pantheon of heroes and often brought in other Marvel heroes with the sole purpose of telling him he was batshit. Most importantly to Moon Knight history, the book retconned Marc Spector into a Gulf War soldier. The progressive title brought in many elements from the modern Marvel Universe and, at times, delved so much into gore and violence that it bordered on parody, but the commercial push did reveal just how determined Marvel was to make this character work.
Vengeance of the Moon Knight #1–10 (2009-2010)
By Gregg Hurwitz, Bill Sienkiewicz, Juan Jose Ryp, Tan Eng Huat, and Jerome Opena
A classic take on the character, Vengeance of the Moon Knight returns Marc Spector to his more heroic days by attempting to remove him from the fringes of the Marvel Universe. In this series, the vigilante tries to make amends for the face ripping carnage of the previous series by swearing to stop killing his foes. The series returns the multiple personality shtick to the forefront as Moon Knight abandons his other civilian identities in favor of Jack Lockley. This is probably the most Marvelcentric of the many Moon Knight titles as almost every issue sees the hero team with a very modernly popular Marvel character. From the Sentry, to Deadpool, to Spider-Man, the series' aim seemed to be to return Moon Knight to his original motivations while embedding him firmly in the contemporary Marvel Universe. The book's main villain was Norman Osborn which went a long way to give the book a more mainstream Marvel feel.
Shadowland: Moon Knight #1-3 (2010)
By Gregg Hurwitz and Bong Dazo
The Jake Lockley experiment did not last long, as Moon Knight adopts the Spector personal once again to defeat the new villain, The Shadow Knight, who was revealed to be Mark Spector's brother. Shadowland was a Daredevil driven event featuring Marvel's street heroes, and the inclusion of Moon Knight solidified the character as a major player in the grittier street side of the Marvel Universe.
The Big Push
Moon Knight #1-12 (2010-2012)
by Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev
No matter how hard Marvel had tried, Moon Knight had never been accepted as mainstream. So in 2011, the company took its biggest talent and allowed them to try to up Moon Knight's cache in the eyes of many fans thatwho dismissed him as a b-lister. Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev were as high a profile creative team as one could imagine. The book acted as a prelude to major events in the Marvel Universe (such as Age of Ultron) and had a very different and twistedly commercial take on the multiple personality motifs. Gone were Lockley and Grant, instead, Spector had developed a new group of multiple personalities, this time, Moon Knight took on the identities of Spider-Man, Captain America, and Wolverine...men he fought beside and admired. This new wrinkle was just what the doctor ordered for a fresh batch of Moon Knight adventures as the book gave off the vibe that the hero was a truly disturbed, but well-meaning and heroic, individual. The series also saw Spector become a Hollywood television executive, a perfect profession for a man who had such a delicate hold on sanity. When Echo, the book's romantic lead, is killed, Moon Knight's Wolverine persona becomes dominant and "slaughters" the Cap and Spidey personas. The book only lasted about a year, though.
Marvel is now trying it again with a new title by Warren Ellis and Declan Shalvey. One look at Ellis's track record (this is a man who understands broken heroes) reveals that this could be the take on Moon Knight that finally sticks; propelling the character forward to Marvel's many multimedia platforms. Come to think of it, wouldn't the Fist of Khonshu just be perfect for Marvel's street level Netflix projects?

Ok, so who is your favorite player? Now, I'm not asking you who would you take if you were to start an NBA franchise. I'm not asking you who is the best individual player in the league. I'm not asking you who is your favorite Piston. If you pick your best player based on any of these criteria, that's cool. But you can pick based on anything. So if someone picks Darko...that's cool. He's not saying he's the best player...just his favorite. If someone (***cough KIM cough*) picks the player with the best booty...so be it. It's cool too. My favorite player? I used to think it was Arenas...but you know, he's a bit of an ass. So tonight I was looking at fantasy stats. My boy Ginoboli was doing kinda crappy tonight. I was thinking...that's OK, Manu. Ypu give it your all. You're a winner. You are getting assists and other stuff to help your team. You've got all that talent and you WANT to come off the pine to help your boys. That's a team player. That's how I play games too...minus the talent, of course. I love the flopping. Anyone who has seen me play fantasy sports knows that if it's in the rules...I'll do it. I like Ginoboli. Love the flops. Love the effort. I wish more players were like him. Manu Ginoboli is my favorite NBA player. Never even thought about it until tonight. So tell us. Who is your favorite player?
Tay for sure. Not on our team, I probably root for Ben the most, since I watch a ton of Bulls games. Other than that, I like to watch games with ex Pistons: Arroyo, Hill, Darko, Delfino, [STRIKE]Smush[/STRIKE], etc.
AI - just wants it more than anyone else Honorable mentions... Sheed - more fun than a barrel of monkeys and a tragic flaw that would make Sophocles proud Big Ben - hate the way he has faded, but man, those were some good years
For pure entertainment value on AND off the court...there ain't nooo one like Sheed. Strictly on court...Dwight Howard.
I could see one of these young guys being my favorite player someday. There isn't an NBA player not on the Pistons that I make it a point to see their games. My favorite player will probably always be a Piston. Some of my past favorites were Bob Lanier Grant Hill. Joe Dumars was my favorite player for a long time. If I had to pick a favorite player today, it would have to be Tayshaun Prince. He contributes on both ends of the floor, always makes good decisions, plays within the team framework, and is always a professional. I guess he's the closest that the Pistons have to Joe D right now.
I've given this a lot of thought. I'm gonna go with Scot Pollard. That guy has hidden talents and has been disrespected from Day 1.
Just for his "we talkin' about practice" classic, AI is definitely up there on my list. If you haven't watched it in a while: YouTube - Iverson Practice!
He said "Practice" 24 and 1/2 times in a 2 minute and 22 second video. I would need practice to shoot such a video.

The soothing pocketa-pocketa-pocketa inner workings of these steam vessels are a meditation on 19th-century technology-maybe ornate, but a heck of a lot fun.
Capt. Steeves was joined by other steamboaters including John Crockett of Andover, N.H. and skipper of the S.L. Jabberwock; Charles Roth of Glen Gardner, N.J. and skipper of Adamey III; Doug Pyatt of Bethlehem, Pa., and several others including a network television producer. A few came to the unusual hobby through steam railroading or an interest in maritime history.
Roth said today's steam launches are registered as gas boats because states simply don't have a category for steamboats.
Most steamboats run between 25-30 feet in length. Most can navigate in shallow water, down to 22 inches deep.
With a full firebox, the S.L. Redbud can cruise up to 15 miles with stoking required, maybe, every 10-20 minutes. And at a top speed of between 5 mph and 6 mph, this vessel won't get you to the church on time. But then, who cares? Steamboating is not about speed or competition. It's about community and enjoying river travel at its own pace.
While staying at River's Edge Cottages and Campground, steamboaters enjoyed day trips-via Otter Creek-to downtown Vergennes for shopping; they also included mini cruises along the shore of Lake Champlain, although some of the skippers dislike the lake's big swells when the weather gets dicey. A few have ventured as far south as Whitehall, N.Y.
"We were on the water when the big thunderstorm hit July 21," said Steeves. "We got back to the River's Edge dock in a hurry."
In the old days, steam launches came in a variety of lengths and were used to ferry passengers on rivers and lakes. Similar launches were a common sight on Lake Champlain and Lake George up until World War I.
Steamboaters planned to wrap up their get together July 25. But there was an opportunity for one more cruise on Otter Creek.
Looking at his steam gauge, Capt. Roth of the Adamey III said, "I need about 100 psi on the gauge, then, I am ready to go.
"Oh," he slyly made an aside, "I should mention that our unofficial cocktail is the gin and tonic-in honor of Bogart and Hepburn and The African Queen.
Well, here's to you, steamboaters! Bon voyages. There is nothing half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.

The black Lens Bag from Shootsac is a sling-style shoulder bag that allows you to have from 3-6 lenses at your disposal quickly and efficiently. It's not meant to be or replace a traditional shoulder bag that holds your DSLR but rather it's akin to a "bandolier" where you store lenses, flashes and/or accessories.
With its slim, lightweight (7.0 oz) profile, it hugs your body with its wetsuit-grade neoprene material avoiding the needs to lug around a heavy, bulky camera bag. For the shooter who travels with a DSLR and only wants to tote around a bunch of lenses, the Shootsac Lens Bag is the answer. It is also designed to hold small accessories such as batteries and memory cards.
The Shootsac Lens Bag has six pockets. The front three have hidden elastic inserts that stretch to accommodate the lens being stored. The rear three pockets are recommended for your small accessories. The bag also comes with an interchangeable neoprene cover that serves two functions. First, since the pockets do not seal, it helps keep the dust and dirt off your glass. Perhaps more importantly, it covers up the bulges and bumps of the lenses and adds a level of security while you're on the move. The cover comes with a handy microfiber lens cloth to help keep your optics clean.
- Designed to be worn while you shoot providing quick and easy access to 3-6 lenses, flashes and other shooting necessities
- Allows fast, one-handed access to lenses
- Includes an interchangeable neoprene cover and lens cloth that protects your lenses from dust, dirt and also disguises the bumps and bulges of the lenses to provide an added measure of security

Final results expected in about eight months
The six-day tiger enumeration got under way in Karnataka as part of the nationwide exercise on Wednesday. It is reckoned to be the world's largest endeavour to estimate tigers in the wild.
More than 1,000 volunteers had registered for the State-wide tiger enumeration which will cover not only the notified Project Tiger reserves in the State but also other reserve forests and wildlife sanctuaries. Vinay Luthra, Principal Chief Conservator of Forests (Wildlife), told The Hindu that an area of nearly 40,000 sq. km was being covered. "We are also assessing the status of prey density, co-predators and habitat status," he added. The final results are expected to take between 6 and 8 months, Mr. Luthra said.
Karnataka has around 300 to 320 tigers as per the 2010 census and the bulk of it was in the tiger reserves of Bandipur (Mysore-Chamarajanagar districts), Nagarahole (Mysore-Kodagu) Bhadra (Chikamagalur), BRT Wildlife Sanctuary (Chamarajanagar), and Anshi-Dandeli (Uttara Kannada). However, there are indications of spill over population groups inhabiting areas outside the tiger reserves and the enumeration exercise would throw more light on it, according to H.C. Kantharaj, director, Bandipur Tiger Reserve.
The total tiger population range was in excess of 500 in the entire Western Ghat landscape complex spread over Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu.
The protocol for tiger enumeration has been devised by wildlife scientists and vetted by the National Tiger Conservation Authority and Wildlife Institute of India, Dehradun, and is being followed uniformly across the country. The procedure entails collecting field data at the beat level in the first phase followed by habitat analysis using satellite data and camera trapping methods in the subsequent phases. The data will be audited by wildlife scientists and experts. "The methodology is simple and robust and the estimation will be based on studies of systematically distributed sampling units or beats throughout the tiger landscape ," Mr. Kantharaj said.
An area of nearly 40,000 sq. km is being covered While 232 volunteers will collect samples in Bandipur, 106 volunteers would do it in Nagarahole

Half of degree coursework (15 out of 30 total credits) must be completed in courses numbered 700 or higher, or in any LSC courses numbered 300–699. Courses in LSC in this range have: (1) an additional graduate-level component and (2) assess graduate students separately from undergraduate students.
Prior Coursework Requirements: Graduate Work from Other Institutions
In consultation with the student's advisor and with program approval, students are allowed to count no more than 6 credits of graduate coursework from other institutions. Coursework earned ten or more years prior to admission to a master's is not allowed to satisfy requirements.
Prior Coursework Requirements: UW–Madison Undergraduate
No credits from a UW–Madison undergraduate degree are allowed to count toward the degree.
Prior Coursework Requirements: UW–Madison University Special
With program approval and payment of the difference in tuition (between Special and graduate tuition), students are allowed to count no more than 12 credits of coursework numbered 600 or above taken as a UW–Madison Special student. Coursework earned ten or more years prior to admission to a master's degree is not allowed to satisfy requirements.
Credits per Term Allowed
15 credits (however, 12 credits are highly encouraged)
Program-Specific Courses Required
Life Sciences Communication 720 Introduction to Communication Theory and Research, one graduate-level research methods course, one graduate-level statistics course.
Overall Graduate GPA Requirement
3.5 GPA required.
Other Grade Requirements
Students must earn a B or above in all coursework to count it toward the 30-credit total.
Probation Policy
Students must be in good standing in accordance with the Graduate School Policies and Procedures in order to earn and retain an assistantship within the department. Students who fall out of good standing must meet with the director of graduate studies.
Advisor / Committee
All students are required to meet with their advisor a minimum of once per semester.
Assessments and Examinations
The research/thesis track requires a formal thesis and oral defense; the non-thesis track requires a comprehensive report or course narrative, and presentation at the culmination of coursework.
Time Constraints
Students who pursue the thesis-track master's degree will have a limit of four semesters (including summer semesters) of 990/thesis enrollment. The four-semester limit starts with the first semester a student takes 990 credits, whether or not in conjunction with other courses. Students will not be allowed to take leave once their 990 enrollment commences. Students who do not produce and defend a thesis at the end of the four semesters will be issued a professional-track thesis.
If a student in good standing encounters extenuating circumstances and wishes to interrupt her/his program of graduate study, the student can take a leave of absence but must notify the LSC graduate committee in writing prior to the start of the semester they wish to take leave, and specify the reason and anticipated length of the leave. If the student wishes to extend the leave, she or he must again notify the LSC graduate committee in writing to the director of graduate studies and the student services coordinator. The leave of absence guarantees re-entry to the program if the student applies to the Graduate School for readmission within the time period specified. Students whose requests are denied may later apply for readmission, but their acceptance cannot be guaranteed.
Language Requirements
No language requirements.

Wow jan thats looking awesome. i bet you cant wait to get her up in the air. ive clocked a good hour of flight time on my apache now and shes absolutely lovely to fly, my pride and joy. she is pretty much done, i built a cockpit myself, and have not yet received any word back from robcon-rc about my instrument panels. they said they were in production and i would have them in 2-3 weeks, but i've not since heard back.
Im about to upload some pictures over on my thread. http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showt...1#post21341939 Im happy to hear your motor worked out. My hyperion 500kv / turnigy k-force 120A HV esc combo with 10-cell 4200 lipo yields me 6 minutes of flying time with 25% residual battery. its not good for battery life to take them below 20% at any time im told. I unfortunately am still waiting on the 500kv motor i purchased from smartmodel, i was sent an 800kv one instead which is uselss to me. all i ever get from kin is a reply saying he will ask the factory because he is waiting on a new design, then i wont hear from him again for weeks. i might just get a credit on a pair of the swept tip blades instead because both my apache and Hughes 600 size helis are now both running perfectly with multiblade heads and the power trains all work fine and run cool. for reference, my esc runs at 34degrees celcius, motor, 42deg, batteries 22deg. my cooling fan system works a treat and the fuse always remains cool after a flight one slight problem im finding using multi blade heads, which someone on here may be able to help me with is, during fast forward flight, with both helis, i am getting a slight cyclic wobble, its a lot worse when theres wind at the airfield. um using the beastx microbeast, ive tried reducing and increasing cyclic gain, no luck. my head speed on the apache is 1250rpm, the hughes is 1600rpm(4blade head running 740kv/9tpinion/83t maingear-compass knight) im using tf models semi symmetrical 600mm carbon infused blades, ive tried tightening and loosening on both, no joy, still get the wobble,. help! |

AH-HA! damn i wish i knew that before i just paid 200USD for 5 blade tf model set! awesome kin that is great news. can you tell me if the blades will be black color? or do we have to paint ourselves and then re-balance? thanks looking forward to testing them/ |

I was intending to do the rivets as you did, but I know the effect of doing panel lines with weathering and that can look well if you do it right and thats always (at least for me) a little nervous making job..... but I did it with a ME 262 I did the paint job for the factory who makes this kits. And even I draw the revits So I can still ad them because I did not start the weathering yet. It still looks cool. Why not adding the lines afterwards Jay? you only need to clear coat it again after the panel lines. I still need to make the markings and you did a very nice job with that. I will e-mail you about that. I was not intending to make the gun working but it will ad a lot off fun I guess, So if you like I will be more than happy if you can mail me your plans. About plans, do you have something of that from your cockpit it looks awesome Now I have to do that........... Thanks for the warning about the hatch I was hoping it will hold but thats gone now so I will ad your solution or just ad one or two 2mm bolts to keep it in place. The antenna attached at the tail is made from (indeed piano wire 0.40mm) And (dutch. split pennen) I do not know the English name for it however I have to make some photos first to explain it to you guys.Its easy but I do not know how to tell it. So I will be back for that one. About that itchy feet you have, well I'm thinking at the Aerodyne blackhawk 600 size but Kin has mentioned that the 800 size are also no problem for a 600 mechanic so I'm not knowing yet what to do.... josereyes, I have the same head and blades as you are and I had no problem at all to attach the blades? and they are sitting tight but they can swing. I fly with a Helicommand Rigid that works great and the bail out function gives me a lot of peace of mind. Kin, You make me a bit scared now you say: The plastic blades in this length 600 is too soft , so change to the new carbon fiberglass blades is much safety for your beautiful bird and don't take this risk. I have the same blades Jay has. Well the swept wing blades you send me will take care for that. But as far I see the TF blades performing very well but you may not turn faster then 1350 or higher rpm other you got indeed the big whoooooooooooooooo resonating in the blades, but with 1250rpm no problem at all. Sunday the 10th we have a big scale meeting here in Holland and I hope to see some sea/black hawks in 600 size and 800 size so then I can see what we are talking about. If the weather permitted I will be there with my Apache and there will be a few other Apaches also so I expect to see and learn a lot Sunday. I will be back with the Antenna question. Regards, Jan, |

Fired City Clerk Will File Lawsuit Against Murray
Former Murray City Clerk Harla McClure will file a lawsuit against the city for wrongful termination. Attorney Thomas Clay says Mayor Bill Wells declined to reinstate McClure as city clerk. Wells fired McClure in early September on allegations of lying about the theft of a $50 city sticker. McClure denies any dishonesty and says it was a misunderstanding. Clay says the city failed to address concerns about the fairness of McClure's termination. He says,
"I think the mayor had reached his decision before we even had that first initial session with him on August 31st. I don't think he paid any attention to the presentation we made then, and he considered in this grievance appeal information of which Ms. McClure was not aware at the time we appeared before him on August 31st."
Mayor Wells says the city is withholding comment on the allegations due to the impending lawsuit. However, in his response to McClure's grievance appeal, Wells says she has been afforded all of her rights to due process. Clay says he expects to begin the lawsuit against the city in the next couple of weeks.

Your best friend Eddie, whom you had met through your career as a YouTuber back when you were still in high school, had asked you to move in with him now that you had graduated. But before you agreed to move in, you decided to spend a week there in order to get to know the area better. You looked out the window as the plane took off down the runway and slowly rose into the sky. Despite your excitement, you felt your eyelids start to droop and soon you were awoken to the gentle shaking of your shoulder by one of the flight attendants. You practically raced out of the plane and into the airport, eagerly searching for Eddie. You caught sight of his lime green beanie and started snaking your way through the sea of people.

I recall a Coach who declined coming to the Arizona Cardinals. He said something that I have always remembered. "I want an Opportunity. Not a sentence."
Gary Kubiak has turned down numerous HC opportunites (or interviews, anyway), it's certainly not unprecedented.
i think he knows hes next in line to be hc of the nep, once bb decides to retire, hopefully he wont leave b4 then, and i dont think hell leave for the nyj, cuz of their cap situation, he'll be blamed when they do terrible, even though its cuz of the way theyve handled their cap situation over the last several yrs anyway, my prediction is he'll stay for next yr, but then get a great offer somewhere for 07, and leave for that
I think BB, as a mentor and a friend, can be very helpful to him in giving advice about making sure that he becomes a head coach when he is ready and in the right situation. I think NOW and the J-E-T-S are criteria that fail both tests.
My hope is that the Pats keep winning, EM keeps stringing them along, their other HC choices go by the wayside, and the team is left in disarray as the draft approaches. Also, their fan-base at this point is DESPERATE for Mangini. If they don't land him, they're not going to like ANYONE else. Pretty funny, actually.
BB was smart enough to say "no" to that situation. Granted, he gave the reason of wanting to get out of tuna's shadow. But Boomer Esiason said the other day that it is the worst job in football, possibly the worst job in all of sports. Something to be said for that...
Yeah, Kubiak, always seemed like a sharp guy, good football man. Wonder why he eschews the head coaching scene. Must be some Denver fans around here that might have an opinion.

But try bedazzling that image with a king-sized mattress, a steamy spa and catered eats under a fiery sunset and the natural camping experience is amped up with edge and luxury. This kind of camping is not an irreconcilable fairy tale; it's a lodging style that's literally gone global. Glamorous camping, or what's become known as "glamping," emerged in Africa and the coastal areas of Thailand in the early 1990s with tourists' growing interest in safari camps. But the roots of luxurious camping go back a lot further; comfortably outfitted tents date back to at least the sultans of the Ottoman Empire.Glamping has more recently become popular in the United States and Europe, with glamping sites popping up from Ohio to London. It's a wilderness experience without all the extra work. Cooking by campfire, sleeping in dark cramped tents and not bathing are remedied issues in the glamping world, which provides vacationers with spacious designer-outfitted tents complete with soft sheets instead of sweaty sleeping bags.7 resorts that celebrities loveMaking steamy s'mores over a campfire in these snazzy locations can carry a pretty hefty price, more than $1,000 a night in some uber-chic places. While glampers won't get "roughing it" credentials from hard-core backpackers, there is an environmental benefit to this style of staying outdoors because sites are pre-set and maintained so there's no stirring up the environment with unpacking a tent or leaving waste near a campsite. In the United States, The Resort at Paws Up in Greenough, Montana, invites campers to enjoy the wilderness around the Rocky Mountains in style. Travelers enjoy sweeping views of the ranch and the Montana countryside from the resort's 24 luxury tents, which are offered in one- or two-bedroom configurations, many with en suite bathrooms. Guests will have a camping butler and a chef who might create recipes from huckleberries picked from the mountain slopes or fresh Rocky Mountain trout.Spa treatments are available in a cluster of white tents called Spa Town, and guests can participate in outdoor activities from horseback riding to hot-air ballooning. A tent stay at this hidden jewel starts at about $800 a night for two guests, including meals. The resort also rents luxury cabins.Five rustic retreats worth a splurgeFor a more modest and affordable experience in England, campers can try The Lakeside Yurt, a single round tent situated on the shores of a fishing lake near the Cotswolds village of Beckford. The circular accommodation has been fitted with a kitchen complete with a dishwasher, an intimate dining area, a shower and sink and a veranda overlooking the lake. Guests also have a private hot tub next to the yurt and may arrange use of the owner's rowboat and swimming pool. The yurt also includes under-floor heating to protect against England's notoriously shifty weather. A full week's stay in the winter starts at about $360, with higher rates in the summer. Another casual and more affordable glamping location lies in the heart of Andalucía, Spain, at Casa de Laila. This site is on a hillside overlooking the Guadalhorce Valley near Malaga. Five canvas bell tents with Moroccan accents are spread through an orange orchard. Breakfast and Wi-Fi are included and travelers have access to a pool and lounge, a basic outdoor kitchen and hot showers. Spa treatments and bike rentals are available at an additional charge and a nearby village and the city of Malaga offer plenty of dining and sightseeing options. The cost is about $40 per person, per night, including a continental breakfast. In Africa, numerous elaborate safari camps have expanded upon travelers' desires for comfortable exploration and adventure. Tanzania's Serengeti Migration Camp features 20 luxury safari tents with hardwood floors, private decks, power and hot water.A lounge, dining room, sun deck and open-air swimming pool overlook the rugged landscape in which gazelle, zebra and other African mammals roam. Hippo line the Grumeti River, which can be seen from the 360-degree decks that line the lounge spaces. Rates start at $730 per person, per night, including game drives twice a day and all meals and drinks.Other far-flung corners of the world offer the glamping experience, too. For an adventure Down Under, Sal Salis Ningaloo Reef in Western Australia gives glampers a taste of the beach with nine tents set up in the white sand dunes of Cape Range National Park. At this ecologically savvy glamping site each Sal Salis accommodation is solar-powered and water usage is carefully managed to lower each visitor's environmental footprint. Kangaroo and wallaroo take the place of raccoon and bear in this luxurious location, and vacationers may hear the sound of a humpback whale breaching beyond the reef. In addition to comfortable beds and en suite bathrooms, there's chef-prepared Australian cuisine and water sports and excursions galore. The cost is about $720 per person, per night for double occupancy.So if you're not a fan of insects and grime, try glamping for a comfy fresh-air alternative. No tent poles to knock into or dirt caught under your nails -- only king-sized beds, fine cuisine and endless adventure.

text: El Castillo, Tulum, Yucatan Peninsula, MexicoErich Fromm, psychoanalyst and author of The Art of Loving among many other books, wrote: A person's main task in life is to give birth to oneself. Giving birth to yourself can happen at any age. You could be in your 70's, you could be a teenager, you might be in your mid-thirties: it makes no difference, you can make this exhilarating change in your life at any time. Why is it exhilarating? It has to do with you finding the real you...the one that was meant to be...the one that senses a true meaning and purpose in his or her life...and the one that will bring you to greater levels of joy, fulfillment, and happiness than any other aspect of you, barring none. When we begin to look at our lives (and again, let me insist that this is not a question of age), from the point of view of growth and purpose; when we realize that we are here for more than the accumulation of honor, prestige, money, and things, much as those are all perfectly valid elements of a good life, then we begin to know that there is another way of looking at how we can continue to develop, that has much more to do with the eternal validity of our souls than with anything else. We begin to become interested in our own inner life - not in a selfish fashion, not born of our ego - because this inner life is precisely what can most clearly point the way towards our own birth. The fact that our intution is hugely involved in this process, should surprise no one. You may have heard of the fact that scientists now refer to our second and third brains (see also my May 2006 Newsletter about this subject), with regards to the billions of neural cells they now know we have in our gut (intestine) and heart, respectively. These neural cells offer intelligent information of another kind to our being, so that in conjunction with the logical information we receive via the neural cells in our brain, we also receive intuitive and emotional information from the neural cells in our gut and heart respectively. Together, the three types of information - if we will but use them in conjunction - allow us to make choices that are much more informed than those that originate merely from our rational brain. Our intuitive intelligence has much to offer us. It can speak to us in the language of our innermost self ... of that part of us that is not only the part that is visible to the naked eye, the part that others can see, but also of that innermost part of us that has always existed, and that will always be. To understand its language is to understand how we can give birth to ourselves. Hence, learning to listen to our intution is of utmost importance, and one of the best ways to do so, is to begin to allow our hunches to lead us. (Also see the brief post about Gert Gigerenzer's new book about the subject: Intuition Has Great Value After All! ). Listening to our intuition can be fomented by spending some time alone, by meditating, by taking solitary walks, but above all, also by allowing the little voice inside of you, when it comes up and nudges you about something, to be heard. In other words, don't just ignore it, don't just tell yourself that whatever it was that you just thought had no value, and that therefore you will not pay any attention. Do something about it. Or notice if right after, something happens, as in: I just thought of Aunt Mabel and two minutes later she rings me. While this type of example is minimally important, it does allow you to begin the process of better understanding the role of intuition in your life. Extrapolating that to today's topic of giving birth to yourself, it is precisely from this sector of your being that you will get the greatest amount of vital information about where to go and what to do in order to expedite your birth. How do we find meaning in our lives? One of the easiest ways is to listen with your inner ear to your bodily reactions to anything. Notice especially a sense of excitement in your solar plexus, an increased rhythm of breathing, heightened facial color and body temperature, as you hear a conversation, listen to something on the radio, watch a documentary on TV, because your body is giving you information about the importance of the particular subject in question to you and your true purpose in life (see also my June 2006 Newsletter: Finding a Meaning For Your Life ). This inner listening is totally connected to your intution, and it is another way of strengthening the inner dialogue in order to give birth to yourself. Here are some further ideas about how you can go about this important process of change: Giving birth to yourself has something to do with Animating Dormant Lives, with The Life You Don't Lead, as it does with examining The Unexamined Life. If you are living an Inauthentic Life, you may also want to consider this notion of giving birth to yourself, and Finding Flow is another aspect of it, because giving birth to your life, implies giving meaning to your life, as it does realizing that Low Frequency Thoughts Erode the Quality of Your Life and learning how to Keep Your Energy High by Taking the State of Your Energy into Your Own Hands so that you can Have A Good Life. Recognizing that you can Be a Victim or Choose Freedom, that your Healthy Boundaries and the Choices You Make can make or break it for you, that you may Use Your Emotions to Learn About Yourself, and that if you can but Be Who You Are With the People You Love, your chances will be optimal for giving this birth to yourself. Making Happiness a Priority is an important consideration, as is understanding the concept of Self-Actualizing People. The idea that The Answer to Your Future May Not Lie in Your Past is germane to this, and learning not to Let Anybody Take Your Dream From You! is part of it too. Asking yourself Whom You Admire, realizing that you need to Grant Yourself the Gift of Solitude, learning that Feeling Sorry for Yourself may not be the swiftest way to growth, and seeing the small within the large, the microcosm within the macrocosm will become apparent if you learn to understand the concept of As Without, So Within. Shakespeare told us that Our Doubts Are Our Enemies and many authors over the centuries have told us that All You Have Is Now. Use these ideas to rekindle dying fires in your life, to move yourself to another level in the process of giving birth to yourself.

i am interested in creating a downloadable eCommerce site. Will this site support secure downloads of purchases?
well as far as I know, that has nothing to do with a theme, you need to purchase an ssl/tls certificate, and assign it to the pages you desire. As for WooCommerce 1.6.6, all the features are included in this theme.
If I buy your theme now will I get a free update when the WooCommerce 2.0 version is released? Also will I have to re create my whole shop on the 2.0 update?
Yes, when you buy an item on themeforest, you have access to redownload it whenever you want, so even if woocommerce 3.0 is out some day and I update my theme for WC 3 you can redownload my update via the same account you bought the theme the first day.
Well as far as I have checked and worked with WC 2.0.3 the only parts that where dramatically changed and needed a some tweaks were image galleries and product variations, which are easy to set up any how. If anything else changes it would be included and supported in the upcoming updates of my theme.
In order to keep up with the news and updates, please follow me on twitter/facebook
One more thing, when you upgrade your woocommerce, if your theme is ready for it, in your admin panel, woocommerce is gonna ask you to run data updater, do it, and all your data would be converted to wc 2.0.3
Ok so I bought the theme unzipped the self-tilted for wc 2.0.3 then FTP all that into my wordpress theme folder. Then I activated wc plugin, next I go to the appearance tab and activate "Self-tilted" I then upload the dummy-content.xml file to make it look like the demo but it does not, its not even close. I think there are some plugins or some steps I am missing to make the theme look like the one on the demo?
on further inspection none of the selft-tilted short codes work, so I must be missing something. I have followed the documentation zip folder but with no luck
in order for the shortcodes to work, you need to install capital-shortcodes plugin which you have downloaded along with the theme. please install all the plugins included for you.
SelfTitled relies mainly on widgets, all of the areas in the demo theme homepage are widgets, you have two sets of options to customize the widgets, the widget options, and the framework options.
in oreder to have the fullwidth slider, you need to install widgetkit, and the add the widgetkit slider styles that I have designed for this theme to the widgetkit (there is a text instruction file inside widgetkit-slider-styles.zip) after you created the slide show using widgetkit, all you need to do is to add the widget to slider widget position in wordpress admin > appearance > widgets.
please read the docs thoroughly, and let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Congratulations for the excellent theme, a question, this theme is compatible with slider revolution? The issue is sensitive for mobile devices? Thank you!
Well I have not tested it with slider revolution but SelfTitled is a very modular theme, and as far as I have tested any thing works, once used as a widget and put into one of these modular positions.
Hello!! I just purchased and installed self titled theme. What is the correct location of the folders download together with the theme folder? I'm talking about "assets" and "widgtekit-slideshow-styles".
thank you very much!! (and sorry for my poor english)
The assets folder contains all the images used in demo theme's bog page, products, and sliders. attributes to the images is included too.
widgtekit-slideshow-styles contains a text file called: how to use widgetkit slider styles.txt read the instructions there. these are different styles you can assign to slide shows, so that you can have different sideshows, in different parts of your site. All you need to do is to copy these folders (that are inside the widgtekit-slideshow-styles.zip file) and paste them to the folder specified in the text file (how to use widgetkit slider styles.txt)
Your English is excellent by the way
Hi! just a question… is it possible ,in home, in the three boxes "top selling" "on sale.." to have a category of your choice?? i know this is the woocommerce plugin widget….but is it possible to do it another way? thank you soo much!!!!!
SelfTitled is a fully widgetized theme, with lots of options for widgets, including widget styles, assigning a widget to a certain page, adding badges and icons hiding and showing the title and even how to layout widgets next to each other, and yes you can put anything, and I mean anything in these 19 widget positions and style them the way you desire. it's your theme, your way.
Hi, in "capital product slider" it says 'Displays a carousel of recent products and/or categories of woocoomerce plugin.' What can i do to visualize only one category?
Hi It was supposed to display both, but due to some conflicts I had to eliminate categories, looks like I have forgotten to change the description text. It's a freebie plugin, enjoy it.
ok…so there is no way to show only one category either with theme's widgets or with woocommerce widgets (because a shortsode in a normal text widget , graphically, it's quite confusing and unreadable)
You can add a text widget to a widget position assign the number of the cats you wanna display and then use framework options -> profiles (tab) -> layout(section) and change it's layout, then use widget options to change it's style
this will display the cats thumbnail with a linked title and number of products in that category underneath it.
I am working on an update for product slider to show different sorts of products and also categories. Follow me on twitter or facebook to be informed when the update is out.
Thank you!! i'll try!
The theme supports the latest version of the woocommerce and 2:02?
Not now, but SelfTitled 2 is out in a day or 2, it supports the latest version of WooCommerce.
Right now I'm doing the final tests and debugging. Follow me on twitter/facebook the get the updates on the exact date.
Hi new version is out now, it supports WooCommerce 2.0.3 plus some more options now.
Are you able to add a Auto Theme Setup module in the theme options, One that will automatically create all the widgets, activate the right plugins and set all the default theme options and images….?
I have seen alot of WordPress themes that have this and it would help soooo much in setting the theme up.
Well, it's possible, but haven't found a way to do that with my themes yet. might include it in the upcoming themes. Thanks for mentioning any how.
I just downloaded the item, can't find the PDS files, I'm doing something wrong? Thanks !!
Inside the file that I sent for reviewers at themeforest.net there is a file named psd-files.zip containg psd file for badges, module-icons and social-icons in case you want to customize or add something to them. If you meant the psd of the whole template, it is not included because many things changed after I converted the psd to wordpress it was not useful anymore.
yes, I saw the psd file, but we need the whole template in psd, cause we want to customize the look&feel. How could we get it? I understand that you have changed it a lot, but working in the wordpress is not useful for us, not for what design concerns. In fact, in the description of the item talks about layered psd, thats why we bought it. Could you send us the template in psd, please? Thanks !!
I understand, and I would be more than glad to send you the psd mock-up.
Please send me an email using the contact form on this page: http://themeforest.net/user/CapitalHThis is a safe way so that I can have your email address to send you what you want.
Done !! I wait fot it, thanks a lot !!
Great Theme, and great techical support! i would defiantly recommend to anyone!
Great Theme! Is it possible to drop the top menu under the logo? Is it WPML compatible?
I am interested in buying this … does the home page slider support video? we are creating a special open for the site – books and need video to appear for each describing them.
I am in a rush to get this site built and really love this theme. Also, is Woo Commerce ready yet, I read that 6 days ago you were working on it. Thanks, JkS
The slider is powered by widgetkit, the slides are added by the default editor of the wordpress, so you can add anything, from text to images and videos as long as you are careful with the dimensions. along with the full width slider, I have added 5 more styles, and the default one, you can choose between them to see what fits you better.
I just gave it a try, using my own shortcode plugin, (Capital-Shortcodes) which you can download it with the theme, and added a youtube video to the slider.
Sounds good! So if I choose a language from the list, it will also be applied to the shop, translating woocommerce ?
Actually WC is i18n ready and you can see the list of the languages it supports here:
https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/tree/v2.0.0-RC1/i18n/languagesHello CapitalH,
Do you have a list of the locations of your widgets so we can re-create the style you have for the demo site? As following your instructions shows how it works, not how to set it up like you show in the demo, many things are missing and I'm quite confused with the amount of options provided.
Also, what do we do about the generated pages by WooCommerce upon install, does the theme replace those pages, making them unneeded? Should I be installing and activating WooCommerce before or after I install the theme?
When using the dummy content, how do I get the main menu's shop drop down to look like the demo website and have it across 3 columns rather then one long column?
When I installed the shortcodes plugin I get this warning upon activation: The plugin generated 241 characters of unexpected output during activation. If you notice "headers already sent" messages, problems with syndication feeds or other issues, try deactivating or removing this plugin.
In the documentation provided, you mention there are screen casts to help set the website up, but no mention on how to find them?
Any help would be appreciated as I didn't think it would require that much setup to mimic the demo site with dummy content.
Besides that it's a great theme with a solid framework!
1. see this page esp the part about theme layout http://selftitled.capitalh.ir/selftitled-features/ this will give you a full idea of how to layout the whole thing also take look at: http://selftitled.capitalh.ir/module-variations/ this will show you any widget position possible.you see the key to layout the homepage is to understand that it mainly relies on widgets, what widget, where among the 19 widget positions available to you, and how to layout (selftitled -> framework options -> profiles -> layout) and how you style the widgets (selftitled -> widget options)
to get to know the framework better take a look at their official docs here: http://www.yootheme.com/themes/documentation?view=docs and here if you plan to use widgetkit for slider, twitter and stuff: http://www.yootheme.com/widgetkit/documentation?view=docs2. the options for menus are in the menu items, you can see the columns options on each parent item in your menu manage. you can also set the min width for each and every one of you parent menu items, and even give an icon.
3. yes you need to install the theme, then woocommerce, then the plugins I wrote for you, and then import the dummy content, the menus of woocommerce will be added too, you might need to re arrange them a bit.
4. it might look confusing at first, and yes because of all the options, the point was to give you full power over every inch of the theme, mission accomplished, but well, has a learning curve which you can do in a bout an hour of tweaking, once you get the general idea, you can set a full site up and running in less than half an hour (like I have done for some clients)
5. I am aware of the error generated by Capital Shortcode plugin, doesn't do any harm, and I will release an update as soon as I find out what's wrong with it.
6. Yes, I promised to make some screen casts, but I really have trouble using internet these days, due to sanctions put on my country, and our government has reduced speed some how to the point of stone age, and it will be like this for the next couple of months (yeah, this is where I live)
7. If after reading the docs I told you, and tweaking the theme you could not accomplish the job, just drop me a message containing a link to your wp back end with the username and password, and I'd be more than glad to set it up and running for you.
please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Where is the add to cart button after you select your options for a product? So if I'm selling shirts, and there are different sizes and colors, and I want to purchase a small red shirt…where is the add to cart button after I select my options?
select the options and after selecting both the add to cart button shows up, I don't see anything wrong with it.
How can I do to translate some "Capital Plugin". i.e.: the contact module I inserted with the capital shortcode is in english.
[capital-contact email="my-email"]
How can I do to translate It?
(I need a Multilanguage site, so I can't edit the langage inside the shorcodes.php file)
I didn't find any .po file.
The plugins are unfortunately not po ready. If you are just looking for a contact form solution there are lots of solutions available for you and all are for free and some are multiligual ready. Just search the wordpress plugin repository for contact form solutions and pick the ones that suits you the best.
Sorry for the inconveniences.
What a pity! Your Shortcodes tool was very cool! Np, I'll go for other solution.
Anyway, great job fot the theme!
Thank you, I am working on new updates for my plugins, adding .po support is one of the updates, follow my twitter to get the news on updates.

Outdated Video Retransmission Rules Inhibit Pay TV Competition, Hurt Consumers
Sept. 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Outdated video retransmission rules inhibit competition in the pay TV market and hurt consumers,
CenturyLink, Inc. (NYSE: CTL) Regional Vice President of Regulatory and Legislative Affairs
Jim Campbell will tell two U.S. House of Representatives subcommittee hearings on the pay TV marketplace this week.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20090602/DA26511LOGO)
Over the past five years, CenturyLink has begun offering its Prism™ TV service to more than 1.5 million homes and has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in deploying high-speed broadband services to support its digital video product.
"While consumers have seen some slowdown in price increases from the incumbent cable provider in the markets where we've launched Prism™ TV, true competitive pricing unfortunately has not yet been realized," Campbell will tell the U.S. House Committee on the Judiciary Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property and the Internet Tuesday and the U.S. House Committee on Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Communications and Technology Wednesday.
"Federal and state policymakers recognize that broadband deployment and video marketplace competition are related and that broadband speeds and adoption increase significantly when it is offered along with video services, which benefits consumers," he said in prepared testimony. However, the current retransmission consent regime leaves consumers vulnerable to programming blackouts and offers no protection against escalating prices. "The cost of obtaining must-have broadcast programming continues to increase exponentially and consumers are feeling the impact through increased prices. Broadcasters are effectively using outdated rules to inhibit consumers from receiving the benefits of choice and a truly viable, competitive pay TV marketplace," Campbell explained. "CenturyLink favors a deregulatory approach under which the 1992 Cable Act would be amended to allow video providers the right to carry national programming from an adjacent or alternate market during a breakdown in retransmission consent negotiations," Campbell said in his testimony. "Congress has an opportunity, as part of the reauthorization of the Satellite Television Extension and Localism Act of 2010, to restore balance to the video retransmission consent marketplace to the ultimate benefit of consumers." About CenturyLinkCenturyLink is the third largest telecommunications company in the United States and is recognized as a leader in the network services market by technology industry analyst firms. The company is a global leader in cloud infrastructure and hosted IT solutions for enterprise customers. CenturyLink provides data, voice and managed services in local, national and select international markets through its high-quality advanced fiber optic network and multiple data centers for businesses and consumers.

98 CommentsSteel Fights Doomsday in January
by Mat 'Inferiorego' Elfring on
Can Steel beat the beast who killed Superman?
The storyline will be entitled Reign of Doomsday, and Doomsday will return to Metropolis. Steel seems to be the only hero who can stop him, even though Steel is human once again.
All of this will take place in January in Steel #1. The splash page on the right is drawn by Ed Benes, and he will be doing the interior art while Steve Lyons writes the book.
For me, I have Fond Memories of the Death of Superman. It was one of my favorite story lines growing up, and more recently, I reviewed the Return of Superman in its entirety. Steel is a great character who has received a bit of the shaft since Countdown to Final Crisis, and it will be great to see him back in action as a normal human, no super-powers here. Who else is excited for the return of Steel in his own series?

Charter class of St. Thomas Aquinas reflects
Monday, August 11, 2014
DOVER — One of Patrick Mone's favorite memories is shaking hands with John F. Kennedy in front of Dover City Hall while the Massachusetts congressman was campaigning for president in 1960.
As STA's charter class prepares for their reunion on Aug. 22 in Portsmouth, they said it was a golden age when they began their freshman year in 1960. With nothing to live down and everything to prove, the group of 219 students spent four years as if they were seniors at the high school because they were the first ones there. "We were seniors the whole time," Gerri (Barry) Miller of Dover said. They reminisced about special times they shared, such as going undefeated during the 1963 football season. "We didn't even have a field. We used to practice in a field across the street from Pat's house," Mahoney said. Mahoney is still married to his high school sweetheart, Barbara McEneaney.
Society was much different. Instead of incessantly Facebooking as teens do today, the teenagers then had to follow strict rules about expressing their blossoming sexuality. At dances, there was a six-inch rule, meaning partners could not be closer than half a foot away from each other. Doing the monkey, a popular dance, was prohibited at the Catholic school. Being taught by nuns and priests had its drawbacks and benefits. If a girl's skirt seemed a little too short, the nuns made her kneel on the floor to make sure it touched the ground. At the same time, faculty members, who lived on the top floor of the school, taught the students about love and respect. "Some of them were not much older than us. They were 21- or 22-years-old," Mahoney said. He could remember one particular nun who wrote to him while he served in Vietnam as a Marine in 1968 and 1969. Healy, who said nuns were role models for her growing up, said the education and reinforcement of values she and her classmates received during their time at STA prepared them for the challenges they faced when they entered adulthood. Her brother, John, served in Vietnam as well.
"We were all outside and we all did things together. It was a lot of physical community," said Bruce MacIntyre of Lee. Despite the changes, the committee members look forward to the future. They know they have contributed to society and now they want to see what their children and grandchildren bring something to the table during the course of their lives. Healy said her hope for her children and grandchildren is that they be contributing members of society who get to experience love, joy and contentment. Healy's is the Gold Star mother of Dan Healy, a U.S. Navy Seal lost in action in Afghanistan in 2005. Mone hopes he is remembered for raising his children well and helping friends and neighbors in need.
STA principal Kevin Collins said the reunion will take place Aug. 22 from 7 to 11 p.m. at the Sheraton Harborside Hotel in Portsmouth. The day after, on Aug. 23, all alums from all classes are invited to celebrate reunions for the classes ending in 4s and 9s from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Collins said. For information contact: Patrick Mone at firstname.lastname@example.com or Natalie (Carberry) Healy at firstname.lastname@example.com. Also check out the class Facebook page.
