Pop art at its finest.
Am I the only one who wants to see a horror film with Shia LaBeouf playing himself? In the movie, he would just have been cast in the part of a cannibalistic serial killer, unfortunately he would take method acting to an extreme. What would start out as simply living in the woods for character authenticity would slowly spiral out of control, until crew members start going missing.
It would, of course, be a musical.

Banned, Censored, and the Obscure: Part 3
Witch's Night Out
When I was at the store they had a Halloween cartoon for sale that I haven't seen in years. Every year after trick-or-treating my family would watch this special. While not banned, or censored, this is one of those strangely obscure cartoons that has a cult following and is not well remembered, (despite the fact that it was released on VHS, and aired every year on the Disney channel and Fox through the mid nineties.)
This is the first year it has been released on DVD. Blogger and author Adam Selzer has the most information on this cartoon, and a fabulous interview with Jonathan Rogers the creator of Witch's Night Out. Rogers apparently had no idea until about five years ago that the special had even been airing for all those years, or that it had such strong fan base. He currently has partnered with Jimmy Cross and written a Valentine and Thanksgiving special that *fingers crossed* will soon be made.
Witch's Night Out is the story of a morose witch who has been out of work for some time. Meanwhile, the adults of the town decide to throw a Halloween party in what they believe is an abandoned house (really the home of the witch). The adults are out of touch with their child side. None dress up, and Goodly who helps plan the event sees the whole thing as a sort of community building activity. Tender and Small our child protagonists want to celebrate the spirit of Halloween and reach out to the witch to help them.
The character designs are like nothing you've seen before. Each character has a playful outline and is painted a monochrome color, with the kind of inky edges that makes me think Shinbone Alley. It is vibrant, fun, and the perfect kind of kid-friendly creepy. It starts with a catchy song, blasts through the twenty something minute short, and ends with everyone happily embracing the Halloween festivities.
I remember finding this cartoon visually enthralling as a kid, but I also remember loving the ending. Halloween is about having the opportunity to be someone you're not, but it is also - as is the case for the gently wicked Malicious and Rotten - an opportunity to explore who you could be. Even just for a night.

The Boxtroll Review
Having never read Here Be Monsters, the book this animated
film was based on, I can make no comment on similarities to the original tale. So,
this review will only be looking at the movie itself.
Growing up, I was a huge fan or Roald Dahl. But there is
something about the grim, exaggerated nastiness of the villains paired with
strange sometimes violent humor and plucky child protagonists that seems to be
difficult to translate well into visual story telling. The Fantastic Mr. Fox, by
Wes Anderson, managed to make that jump and The Boxtrolls follows suit. It
takes this genre, and makes a movie that manages to capture the heart of these
kind of strange tales.
Eggs is our primary protagonist, the adopted human child of
a family of Boxtrolls that live under the city. The humans who live above
believe the Boxtrolls are violent monsters. Meanwhile, the cunning Pest exterminator, Archibald Snatcher, creates
a deal with the White Hat Society that if he kills all the Boxtrolls he will be
allowed to join their illustrious club.
The characters are so much fun. Eggs is sweet,
and funny, and utterly sympathetic in his adventure to try and save his
dwindling family. Archibald is a fascinating villain, whose dream of eating
cheese with the White Hats is a struggle in the impossible, made all the more
hysterically absurd because of his deathly allergy to cheese. His henchman, Mr.
Trout and Mr. Pickles, have deep (sometimes fourth wall breaking) discussion on
the moral grays of their profession. Both insistently believe they are the heroes
of the story.
Navigating growing up is complicated, it is a common
experience for children to feel unheard, or misunderstood by the adults in
their live. While adults might look upon these kinds of stories as too grim,
they carry a humor children love. They speak to an understanding of the child
experience, without writing down to them. There is no candy-coating. Terrible
things happen… but so do great things.
And it is the smart, brave, children who will save the day.
The Boxtrolls is not the type of family animated film we are
used to seeing, but it is absolutely a film for families, and one I cannot
recommend highly enough.

Female Duos (in theory) Part 1
When looking at animated female duos, it is important to look
take into account the role of female characters in animation. In 1991, Katha Pollitt
wrote an article that helped define a common trope: The Smurfette Principle. In the article
Pollitt discusses the tradition of a male cast of cartoon characters having
only one female character, who tags along with the boys.
"The message is clear. Boys are the norm, girls the variation;
boys are central, girls peripheral; boys are individuals, girls types. Boys
define the group, its story and its code of values. Girls exist only in
relation to boys."
Nostalgia Chick has a fabulous video that gives an overview of this phenomenon. As I've blogged about in more detail HERE, the 80s became a spread of marketing based animated shows. The cartoons also became decidedly gendered, with shows like Transformers for young boys, and My Little Ponies for girls. In the nineties, shows became less product based, and less gendered in their marketing. Cartoon's became more inclusive for viewers. But as the Nostalgia Chick points out, the result was that in the shows themselves, the majority of protagonists were male. Token female characters would be a part of ensemble casts, but primary female character who carried a show were rare.
Looking at television cartoons produced by Toon Disney during the
1990s gives a good look at animated female characters during this time. Of the
25 cartoons that aired:
9 had an ensemble
cast with a male majority
Adventures of
the Gummi Bears (1985-1991) 4M 2F, DuckTales (1987-1990) 4M, Goof Troop (1992-1993) 2M, Gargoyles
(1994-1997) 6M 2F, The Mighty Ducks (1996-1997) 4M 2F, Jungle Cubs (1996-1998) 5M 1F, Quack Pack (1996) 4M, 101 Dalmatians (1997-1998) 3M 1F, Recess (1997-2001) 4M 2F,
1 had an
ensemble cast with a female majority
Otter (1998-2000) 2F 1M *unlike the other shows on this list, it targeted preschoolers
9 had a
primary male protagonist (often with supporting ensemble casts)
The New
Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (1988-1991), TaleSpin (1990-1991), Darkwing Duck (1991-1992),
Marsupilami (1993), Bonkers (1993-1994), Aladdin (1994-1995), Disney's Doug (1996-1999), Nightmare
Ned (1997), Hercules: The Animated Series (1998-2000)
3 had a primary
female protagonist
The Little
Mermaid (1992-1994), Pepper Ann (1997-2001), Sabrina, the Animated Series (1999-2000),
3 had two
primary male protagonists as a duo
Chip n' Dale
Rescue Rangers (1989-1990), Timon and Pumbaa (1995-1999), The Shnookums and
Meat Funny Cartoon Show (1995)
21 of the 25 shows featured either an ensemble cast with a male majority, or had a male primary protagonist. 4 shows had a primary female protagonist, or featured an ensemble cast with a female majority. Or to put it another way, only 16% of the cartoon series Disney produced from 1990-1999 featured a female driven narrative. Of the nine cartoons with a male majority ensemble cast, male characters on average outnumbered female characters 4:1. The single show that featured a female majority ensemble cast was targeting preschoolers, and the second female character in this triad was a baby who couldn't speak in complete sentences.
And Disney was leading the pack. It wasn't until 1998 that Nickelodeon featured a cartoon with a primary protagonist who was female, The Wild Thornberrys. Similarly, 1998 was the year that Cartoon Network first featured a show with primary female protagonists, with an ensemble cast, The Powerpuff Girls.
It's probably not surprising then, that while on the rare occasion male/female comedy duos appear, female/female comedy duos don't. Rarely are there enough female characters to make a comedic duo. Even when there are, female characters are more likely to be daughters, love interests, or sisters to a male character. There is little room for female characters to have a female partner and carry a show, the way male duos did in large numbers during the 90s.
What would a Female Duo look like if they followed Male Duo
Two of my favorite web comic artists, Lisa Vandenberg and Rebecca Schauer, co-created an animated web
series for a while. It was the first time that I had seen a cartoon that
brought the comedy duo to female characters with all of the traditional comedy duo humor
(including ambiguous/not so ambiguous relationships). Embracing the
hapless idiot and angry friend trope, not only does Nikki and Page embody the best of the "heart" and "brain"
characteristics that define male duo comedy in animation – it rises to the standard
of bizarre wit that Adult Swim has popularized for older viewers.
Watching this cartoon, is like getting the taste of food everyone tells you can't be cooked. Of course it can, you're eating it right now, it's delicious… but when you try to order it out an a restaurant, everyone simple stares at you blankly and tells you "food like that doesn't exist."
Nikki and Page is hysterical, and it doesn't shy away from overtly "female" comedy. Two shorts in a row joke about menstruation, in the kind of gross-out humor one expects from Ren and Stimpy tradition. Jokes like this don't fly on mainstream adult targeting animation, humor that deal with "womanly" issues must be coached through a male perspective to be considered universal humor. I find it frustrating that adult targeting animation that takes risks with shows like BoJack Horseman, don't take the same risks with female primary protagonist and comedy.
Vandenburg recently posted on Tumblr, about a cartoon that she and Schauer had pitched to Nickelodeon.
"I saw this in my old folder and
remembered when me and Becca pitched this show about
young lesbian girls who hang out with spoiled snails that have realistic baby
faces to Nickelodeon. They didn't think it was as funny as we did, though."
#the world isn't ready for this kind of greatness
…and though the hashtag is intended with humor, she's absolutely right. But this is exactly the kind of show
(in genre) that was being made with male characters in the 90s. Shows like Ren and Stimpy capitalized on the humor that came from the ambiguous relationship
of its title characters. Baby-faced snails are exactly the kind of off-the-wall humor zany cartoons wanted.
Vandenberg is now working on Sanjay and Craig as a Storyboard Revisionist. This is a male duo show that matches her comedy style. Seeing an artist like her get an opportunity
working for Nickelodeon gives me hope that someday we might see more diverse female
characters in shows that are considered not just for female viewers, but for
everyone. Maybe someday animated female duos will rise to the ranks of Pinky and the Brain, Ren and Stimpy, and Sanjay and Craig.

Belle Movie Review
The genre, a comedy of manners, often features quick-witted women who fight injustice with their words, while humorously and critically navigating class and romance. Jane Austen classics are a great example, and are still popular today. The recently released film, Belle, gives viewers everything they expect from the genre, along with something noticeable lacking from stories like Pride and Prejudice: people of color. Romantic, smart, and headstrong protagonist, Belle, is black. This movie is based on true events.
Dido Elizebeth Belle was born in 1761. Her mother was a slave, and her white father, a captain in the Royal Navy. After her mother's death Dido escaped the harsh life her skin color should have confined her to. Instead she was raised by her Great uncle, Earl Mansfield, as a member of their family, given an education befitting a lady. Belle might have been forgotten by history if not for a famous painting that depicts her and the cousin she was raised with.
"Images from the period, most famously Hogarth's work, show black people living in the squalor of London's underclass. But there is one notable exception – a remarkable portrait of an aristocratic black girl."
In the painting, Belle, is wearing wealthy clothing, her white cousin's arm affectionately at her waist. They appear as of equal status. This painting is a prominent part of the movie, and Belle's unique true story (with some liberties taken) is explored as a sweeping romantic historical fiction.
Dealing with class, courtships, status, gender and race, this movie is both comedic and dramatic. Set against the backdrop of the young abolitions movement and a controversial court case involving slave traders killing off their cargo for insurance, viewers follow Belle as she tries to make a good match in a society that does not know where to place a black women of status. She is, to quote the film: "too high in class to dine with the servants, while too low in class to eat with her family."
Bringing up fascinating issues of the time, like a young man who wishes to break down the confines of race and class, and yet must do so by rising up the political ladder of class himself. Or the complexity of a women's place in a time where a good match was made by having a dowry, which meant a women ended up paying a man to take ownership of her, as after the marriage she would be considered his property.
As a fan of historical fiction, I loved this movie. Belle is a Jane Austen styled flick that uses modern sensibilities to ask the difficult questions about politics, race and class that are often glossed over in films based on classic literature about the time period. I would highly recommend this movie, and would rate it five out five stars if not for one unfortunate flaw.
Belle, a movie starring a black protagonist, about class and race, featuring the abolitionist movement – only just passes the Racial Bechdel Test by a single conversation. This conversation, about hair, between Belle and a black household servant is the only time we see Belle speak to another character of color. Mabel, the servant, is the only other black character of any substance in the film, and in reality she is in only a few scenes, with a handful of inconsequential lines. The result is that a social rights movement in which black men and women fought against a system that oppressed them is retold through a primarily wealthy white voice.
Historically at the time this movie takes place, there were black freeborn men and women in England, and freed slaves who became abolitionists. During the same years as this story, Ignatius Sancho became the first black person from Africa to vote in parliamentary election in Britain. Though the film prominently features the Zong case, which helped end slavery in Britain, Belle forgets to mention the work of people like the Sons of Africa: black freedom fighters, including famous author of Interesting Narratives (1789), Olaudah Equiano. Sons of Africa worked to publicize the Zong case, using it to fight against the enslavement of their people.
The end result is a bit like watching a movie about the women's suffrage in which the female protagonist only has one minor conversation with another woman, and all conversation on women's rights are discussed with men. This creates an unfortunate shadow on a film that by all other accounts is a wonderful watch.
So, I recommend this movie, but I recommend it along with other readings like:
The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, Or Gustavus Vassa, The African by Olaudah Equino
Voices From Slavery: The Life and Beliefs of African Slaves in Britain by Chigor Chike
And for an interesting (and far less romanticized then this movie) look at what living in London at the time would have been like: 1700s: Scenes from London by Maureen Waller
Voices From Slavery: The Life and Beliefs of African Slaves in Britain by Chigor Chike
And for an interesting (and far less romanticized then this movie) look at what living in London at the time would have been like: 1700s: Scenes from London by Maureen Waller
comedy of manners,

[video] Quick Take: It's a New Johnson Controls
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- When companies look to unlock value, shareholders are the ultimate winners.
According to TheStreet's Jim Cramer and Stephanie Link, co-managers of the Action Alerts PLUS portfolio, Johnson Controls (JCI - Get Report) could be a solid investment for this very reason.
It's a name that they've owned in the past and have started to purchase again.
The company has seen solid results from its exposure to the auto industry and in its battery segment. And although nonhousing construction hasn't done as well, it still offers plenty of opportunity, Link said.
Cramer added that the company's management has recently indicated that it will unlock value by breaking up certain parts of the company. Link went on to say that several positive catalysts remain in play for Johnson Controls: A new CEO and an analysts' meeting in December, where positive comments are expected from the new leader. The company also has exposure to Europe, which is believed to be doing better. Cramer concluded that it's a good idea to get into the stock early and buy on the dips. Honeywell International (HON) is also a name Cramer and Link like, but they've been unable to find a dip to buy more shares of the stock. According to Cramer, the common theme in the market is that the good companies don't pull back. -- Written by Bret Kenwell in Petoskey, Mich.

Protect your data and wallet with the little cloud device that does more than just file storage Read more
Protect your data and wallet with the little cloud device that does more than just file storage
About this project
Because news like this is UNACCEPTABLE...
We need a new solution...
A device that securely stores all of your digital content, and keeps growing as you need more storage.
A device that fosters collaboration, allowing you to synchronize or comment on documents, and automatically back up prior versions as you make changes.
A device that hosts entire discussion boards within it, facilitating secure communication and easy socializing.
A device that creates an interactive storefront for you, with built-in payment processing, inventory management, and CRM.
A device that provides an affordable and secure alternative to using online services like Dropbox, Box, Google Drive, Microsoft Sharepoint, Facebook, Amazon et al, without the complication of setting up a NAS box or your own server.
What is the Pixeom device?
Pixeom is a new kind of personal cloud device, which allows you to do more with your data.
Each box owner is in control of a device that scales seamlessly as they need more storage space, without having to pay subscription fees or understanding how to setup and manage a server/NAS box.
Think of it as a hardware box that runs apps for you, that we refer to as "exchanges".
You start by uploading your files, but unlike most other cloud products today, our device is not just for file storage - the exchanges do different things for you like facilitating file collaboration, or hosting discussion boards and interactive shops. You can also organize cloud playlists or broadcast your content to nearby devices!
Your device can stay private, where you just invite trusted friends to collaborate and play in a secure environment, and optionally it can join a global network of Pixeom devices, advertising their public content.
Your device can contribute to a collection of public content for anyone to browse and discover, beyond your circle of invited friends!
Interesting, tell me more...
All of your content stored on the Pixeom device is automatically encrypted with the latest security (AES-256), and you can specify all of the keys and passwords.
Each Pixeom device is expandable, so you can attach USB hard drives and connect multiple Pixeom devices together to indefinitely increase your storage space. And with multiple devices mirroring the data you never have to worry about losing anything important ever again – not to mention reducing downtime in the process.
The Pixeom device is designed to save you money. It is remarkably low power, and will always be a one-time cost to you. Compare that to the subscription based model of cloud storage options today, and the choice is easy.
No more subscription fees, no more security breaches or privacy concerns, and no more restrictions by third party service providers.
That sounds cool, but why do I need this?
We live in an age of online services. Some of the more popular ones include Dropbox, Google Docs, and Facebook. These services are convenient and make our lives better, but they are far from perfect.
They are all built on the foundation of the datacenter. Big buildings with many servers that you connect to when you type in a URL like www.dropbox.com or www.facebook.com into your web browser.
Datacenters cost millions of dollars to build and maintain, so the service providers need to make it worth their while. They lure us in with free stuff under the guise of making our lives easier (free cloud storage, free social networking, free picture sharing) and then find ways to take control and profit off of us later, usually by charging subscription fees or selling our personal data. In the end, everything is actually for their benefit, not the customer.
Datacenters suffer from constant security breaches, regular downtime, and lack of privacy. It's time someone brought control back to users everywhere. We should be allowed to own our data, make our own rules, and keep our privacy when we want it. So we decided to give each person their own little piece of a datacenter, that they control and can use privately, or choose to publish content to a free global network. Let's challenge the datacenter together.
Technical Specifications
The underlying computer board is a Raspberry Pi, to which we have added the storage and created a custom enclosure. The Raspberry Pi features the following specs (with our added internal storage):
- Embedded Linux
- Broadcom BCM2835 system on a chip (SoC)
- ARM1176JZF-S 700 MHz processor
- 16 GB Internal Storage
- 2 USB Ports
- 10/100 LAN Port
- LEDs for Power, Storage Access, Ethernet
- Low Power, Green 5V/1A Power Supply - equates to about $5 per year in electricity costs to the owner
- Can perform at high temperatures well above 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Does not require an air-conditioned environment hence having zero cooling cost.
- Easy to setup and connect from anywhere in the world. It has a self configuration software built in that will perform a self installation without any human inference.
The hardware is low power, but with our optimized software is also capable of running dozens of simultaneous connections (100+ in our tests!). One device can support you sharing and collaborating with all of your friends!
Accessing the Pixeom Device
You are able to access a Pixeom device through simple and easy to use mobile applications (Android and iPhone) as well as through any web browser.
Video Demo
This is an older demo from a build back at the end of November, and we are working on uploading a more recent demo with the new Market Exchange. Until then, hopefully this gives you a good idea of what it is like to connect to your Pixeom device and with other people!
I still don't get how you are different from your competitors?
Our competitors offer one simple workflow:
- Upload your files to a limited storage space
- Access them from anywhere (and some let you share them with friends)
We decided in addition to almost unlimited storage space, you should be able to do more with your files and data. Things like:
- Commenting and streamlining the collaboration of files. No more exchanging emails to figure out what to do with which file.
- Hosting discussion boards and interactive storefronts that work on top of your data to facilitate all of the types of data exchanges in your life.
- Broadcasting your content to local devices on the network (phones, tablets, computers) on the fly. Teachers can now push tailored and personalized content to each student's smartphone from one Pixeom device.
- Almost infinitely increase your storage space as much as you want by connecting multiple devices - this enables you to mirror your data locally or remotely, providing fault and disaster tolerance.
- Many more usage possibilities, as with this device we are building a platform for you to do anything with content that you create. Imagine hosting live games or podcasts off of your device, using it to it can become the device that represents your lifestyle and everything you are passionate about!
The Story of Pixeom
We started Pixeom as brother and sister co-founders, two people who are very passionate about technology and the latest gadgets.
Karishma is a senior studying industrial engineering at USC as well, with numerous internships at tech start-ups where she did UX work and product design for cloud computing products. At college, she is a resident advisor and board member of the entrepreneur club on campus. She currently lives in Los Angeles, California.
The inspiration for Pixeom came from a discussion we had, about the wealth of online services available, and how they have greatly improved our lives – everything from search engines to Cloud storage. We love them, but they are not perfect.
We decided that the main problem with the status quo is that in order for these online services to run, the service providers must build large data centers. These data centers cost millions of dollars. In order to make it worth their while, they take control, and find ways to profit off of users in whatever way possible. Like selling user data or soliciting subscription fees after luring users with free stuff.
We have an experienced team of developers, product managers, and advisors that understand technology and pay attention to customer needs. We all have past experience with shipping real products that people use today, and more than ever we want the world to be able to use Pixeom. We will ensure the Pixeom device gets produced and delivered in a timely manner...this is a personal project which is close to our hearts.
The Evolution of the Pixeom Device
Current Status of Project
- Device - We have completed the design of the product, and have a fully working initial prototype. The OS running on it is fully functional, with only optimizations for performance remaining.
- Web Browser App - This is the furthest along of the options available to access a Pixeom device. It is fully functional and needs a few aesthetic tweaks, like adding in more themes (some of them will be decided by our backers!)
- Android App - Currently has 30 minor bugs in our database, being fixed at a rate of 4-5 per week. Will also add in the same aesthetic tweaks from the web browser app as well.
- iPhone App - We just found someone to work on this. The iPhone app is not fully functional at this time and expected to be completed by the start of Beta program, at the end of our Kickstarter campaign.
How will the final version of the product be different?
Our Awesome Rewards
We have 11 reward levels, which start with basic things like T-Shirts and small trinkets, all the way up to a fully customized Pixeom experience...where we allow you to select the colors for the device and customize the UI color scheme to your liking!
And no matter which level you choose your name will be forever put into the credits of our product, visible by anyone who clicks on "settings"!
Thank You
Risks and challenges
Pixeom's risks and challenges lie first in the completion of the product, then in the delivery of the product, for both the hardware and software.
The most significant challenge of the hardware is managing the suppliers of the multiple components of the Pixeom device. Although we have already began prototype trial runs and established existing relationships with the suppliers we intend on partnering with, they are an external factor. Based on our working relationship, we are confident in our selection of vendors, however, to mitigate any risk that may arise, we have selected a minimum of one backup supplier for each component. In addition, we have already negotiated the pricing of components with both primary and backup suppliers.
With the software, the biggest challenge is in accurately predicting the completion time. Bugs and unexpected behavior can not only be difficult and time consuming to find, but also to fix. Luckily, based on where we are on our software timeline, we have selected a very conservative estimate of when Pixeom delivery can be expected. We also have an experienced team of people with deep knowledge of software and hardware development, with past experience shipping complete consumer products on time for big companies like Microsoft, as well as for start-ups which were later acquired by VMware and EMC.
Additionally, since the device has low-end specs, performance tuning is one of our biggest challenges overall – the performance has to be good enough to deliver a responsive user experience or else users can get put off. We already have our cloud software and native apps tuned to be very responsive and are working on the web version to do the same. One of the startups mentioned earlier that several of our team members have worked for, prior to their acquisition by EMC, had successfully delivered consumer networking and storage products running on similar low-end hardware under license to Nokia and 3Com.
We have not yet delivered more than a few dozen beta units, but once we do start distributing more, we will need to scale this process. This will begin by establishing a dedicated group of people to support customer issues that may arise.
Shipping units to international customers depends on regulatory approval, and may be delayed past the delivery estimates we have provided. This is an external process we don't have complete control over, but with the use of country-specific consultants we expect to minimize delays, if any.
We are committed to keeping you informed of our progress in the months following the campaign. In the event that unexpected issues arise in the delivery schedule, we will do our utmost to minimize the impact on our backers and keep everyone fully informed - we believe transparency is the best policy to build a relationship of trust.
Learn about accountability on KickstarterFAQ
1. Our device is expandable and you do not have to spend time on capacity planning, as you can keep connecting multiple devices together to indefinitely increase ONE single storage pool. With a NAS box (like Western Digital's MyCloud, Lima, and other such products), once you run out of space, you have to buy a separate one and figure out which one will store which files - you can't just seamlessly add more hardware to increase the space of what you already have.
2. We do more than just allow you to store files. Other solutions only allow you to upload a file, and access it later. We allow you to create discussion boards and interactive stores hosted on your device, that you can invite anyone to browse or participate in. It becomes a social experience!
3. Our device can stay private, or it can connect with a global network where you can broadcast public content for anyone to discover using their web browser or our free mobile app. We are trying to challenge the very nature of today's datacenters and services
To expand the space, you have two options. Either connect more external USB hard drives, or you can link multiple Pixeom devices to indefinitely expand your storage pool to whatever size you would like.
Our product is a cloud for two reasons
1. You can continue to expand and grow your storage pool by connecting more machines together. The storage layer spans across the boundaries of any single machine - just like a cloud in a datacenter does.
2. You are able to access it from anywhere. We automatically port forward for you, and help you discover your device from anywhere, we even intend on providing for you a custom domain that you can easily remember (e.g. stephen.pixeom.com) that will get automatically updated with the IP of your device. You can opt out of this if you want to stay off the grid and manage IPs yourself.
The Pixeom device does not generate a WiFi access point. It is not meant to be a portable device. You plug it in at home or in your office, connect the wired Ethernet, and then you can access it from anywhere across the internet or on your local LAN.
We take care of the discovery of the device from anywhere, making it convenient for you. And yes, the devices are able to discover each other across the world. It is a community-owned network of devices where anyone who has the free mobile app can browse the public content.
You cannot install anything custom on our device, we wanted to make it as easy to use as possible, so we integrated everything already for you, such as - payment processing, inventory management, CRM. There is no need to install anything, just right click and say "create shop" then start adding your inventory information!

what did yoy think of the issue? howabout 3rd dna donor,kryptonian armor and its effect on kons powers,how kal and kon were together in the issue,anything else?
superboy#15,talk here
For the 3 dna donors, my guesses are : Superman, Lex Luthor and Adam Blake Captain Comet.
captain comet is good for the TK abilites,i would say martians are good for the TK powers and consciousness thrpughout their bodies,course i hear daemonites,but idk why.
i think it might be someone from the future,the lil hints about kon having ties to the future,and it would actually be cool,but idk who in the future would work with what we know of SB,that cant be explained by lex and kal.

Alan Jackson Announces 2015 Keepin' It Country Tour
Alan Jackson has announced tour stops and dates for his 25th anniversary tour. The Keepin' It Country Tour will begin on January 8 in Fort Myers, Fla. and crisscross the country through May.
Alan Jackson has announced tour stops and dates for his 25th anniversary tour. The Keepin' It Country Tour will begin on January 8 in Fort Myers, Fla. and crisscross the country through May.
11 years ago today (Aug. 9, 2003) was a big day for Alan Jackson. It was on this day that his duet with Jimmy Buffett, 'It's Five O'Clock Somewhere,' hit the top of the charts, where it stayed for eight weeks.
Alan Jackson's storied career will be honored at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. Beginning in August, the country legend's work will be seen in an exhibit called 25 Years of Keepin' It Country.
Alan Jackson will open SeaWorld's Bands, Brew & BBQ concert series this weekend at the theme park in Orlando, Fla. The country legend will perform on Saturday, while Kid Rock will perform on Sunday, despite heavy pressure from fans and animal rights groups for all artists on the schedule to cancel their appearances.
We lost the Possum, George Jones -- who is considered one of the greatest country singers ever, if not the greatest country singer ever -- earlier this year. Of course, the 2013 CMA Awards paid tribute to the legend, with Alan Jackson and George Strait performing a duet of 'He Stopped Loving Her Today,' which is Jones' most recognizable and beloved song.
Alan Jackson's middle daughter Alexandra was arrested Wednesday morning (Aug. 28) in Nashville on charges of assault, resisting arrest and underage drinking. The 20-year-old was the passenger in a Range Rover pulled over around 2:30AM CT. Police say she had been drinking and became angry as they tried to talk to her.
Country superstar Alan Jackson closed out George Jones' funeral service in Nashville last Thursday with a fitting version of 'He Stopped Loving Her Today.' Now, the Grand Ole Opry has placed the video online for fans to enjoy.
Country music superstar Alan Jackson will help some deserving military families celebrate July 4th a little bit early this year. According to a post on Jackson's website, the singer is slated to perform this coming Saturday (June 30) at Fort Sill, Okla. to kick off the military installation's patriotic festivities.
The countdown to the 2012 CMT Music Awards is on! This Wednesday night (June 6), country music fanatics will get to see country's top performers take the stage at the awards show. Plus, fans will also catch a glimpse of their favorite artists presenting awards to this year's winners.
You could win a trip to meet and see Alan Jackson live!
Alan Jackson was the subject of last night's 'Backstory' on GAC, and the singer's relationship with wife Denise was a focal point of the episode. Alan and Denise have been married since 1979, so their relationship factors heavily in his career and his music. The duo endured their fair share of ups and downs since that fateful meeting at a Dairy Queen, but through it all, they remain stronger than ever.
Nashville's hottest country stars will head south seeking warmer climate this winter. Lady Antebellum, Alan Jackson, Keith Urban and more are lined up to play the 2012 San Antonio Rodeo, which kicks off on Feb. 9 down in the Lone Star State.

The search for two escaped killers suffered a setback today when a key witness confessed he lied about being solicited for a ride earlier this week.
Authorities say other witnesses who reported seeing the inmates
along the same stretch of Utah highway were mistaken.
They were believed to have spotted hunters or other people.
The search, however, was shifting to "promising" leads developed today by U.S. marshals.
Sheriff's Detective Dick Blust says the key witness, a 27-year-old Vernal man, faces criminal charges for making up a bogus sighting.
The man said he was solicited for a ride at a rest stop along Utah Route 191 on Tuesday.
The rest stop is about 35 miles north of the Daggett County jail, where the two inmates broke out Sunday.

President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva's refusal on December 31 to extradite Battisti, a member of the Armed Proletariat for Communism (PAC), a radical and armed left-wing group that killed several people in the 1970s, sparked a wave of indignation across Italy. Battisti has been found guilty of the group's 1978-1979 murders of a prison guard, a special investigator of terrorist organisations, a butcher and a jeweller, and in 1993 was sentenced in his absence to life in prison.

Deftones Start Recording New Album Without Chino Moreno
But the singer will be there soon, is "excited" to hear the latest songs
It's no secret that Chino Moreno has been busy. The Deftones frontman has his † † † (Crosses) band, which he discussed recently with SPIN. And while that project had enough time to hit Jimmy Kimmel Live! recently, his other group Palms released a NSFW video for "Mission Sunset" just in time to lovingly ruin Valentine's Day. But the man's second band just wrapped the Soundwave Festival in Australia, and during a backstage interview, Moreno revealed his first band (the Deftones, if you're lost) is recording new material in his absence. Don't worry — he's totally cool with that.
"The other guys started last week — I'm excited to hear what they've done so far," he said in a video from SoundwaveFestTV (via Rolling Stone). "We don't plan on what kind of record we're going to make. We react to each other — one guy starts playing something then the other guy reacts to it, and the other guys react to that. Next thing we know, we have a song. I think that's the best, organic way to write music. It's worked for us over the years."
The band's forthcoming album and follow-up to 2012's Koi No Yokan will also be their first since the death of founding bassist Chi Cheng, who passed away last April four years after a car accident left him paralyzed and comatose. Watch Moreno's interview from the Aussie festival below.

Saving Grace Agency nurse and physiotherapist Grace Gillespie is long overdue for a break. However, she finds herself unable to resist when she is offered work nursing a patient recovering from an accident, deputy Head of the local high school, Stuart Campbell. He lives near Dornoch, her home territory and birthplace. Grace looks forward to being close to family and on familiar ground; taking on the job seems a rather attractive prospect.But her patient s case is not as straightforward as it seems. Stuart insists that he cannot remember his accident; it is assumed that he must have fallen off the roof of the school during a function there. Grace has plenty of experience of this kind of accident and knows that her patient s injuries don t match up with this - what is he hiding? Who are his enemies? And why is he so afraid of being left alone in the house? Spurred by her growing attraction to her patient, Grace is determined to get answers to her questions. But as her investigations go on, it seems someone is desperate to stop her, no matter what it takes.

I have used the Bic Mark It™ Ultra Fine Black Permanent marker since day one of my crafting life. To see this amazing set of 36 trendy colors was a complete joy, I love fine detail work on my collage, altered art, domino jewelry, and paper art projects. With this great set of colors I added more colorful detail with confidence and flair. The nib stands up to use and a little abuse, as permanent markers are a tool used frequently by crafters. The packaging acts as a carrying case for the markers, a nice plus. The color is long lasting, acid-free, and you can mark on just about any surface from glass, metal, plastic, photo paper, foils, coated, and even oily surfaces. Colors include Petal Pink, Peach Parfait, Summer Melon, Lemon Bliss, Stone Grey, Playful Purple, Hot Aqua, Deep Sea Blue, Woodsy Brown, and For-Ever Green. The manufacturer does not recommend these markers for fabric, but I am guilty of doing just that with good results. There is no need to shake this ink pen and you should protect your worktable or surface. Great variety of color and great idea to make the packaging a storage system too. Excellent and affordable permanent ultra fine tip marker. (And to those who doodle or Zentangle, this is a perfect pen set to create colorful design).
