M. C. Escher in popular culture
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (December 2010)
There are numerous references to famous Dutch painter M.C. Escher, in popular culture.
Pop culture references to Relativity[edit]
- Matt Groening parodied Relativity in the comic strip Life in Hell, where the cartoon rabbits fall down stairs at impossible angles. The joke was later reused as a couch gag on The Simpsons, and parodied in The Simpsons Movie.
- In the city building game Afterlife, Hell's ultimate punishment for Envy is called the Escher pit and is designed to torture souls by having them all be given different punishments, and after a few days are allowed to switch with a neighbor, thinking he/she is better off, only to find that all punishments are worse than the last. The outside slightly resembles Relativity.
- In the Futurama episode "I, Roommate", Fry and Bender go apartment-hunting and visit a room that resembles Relativity. Fry claims that he does not want to pay for a dimension he isn't going to use; Bender then trips down one of the stairs and continues to fall.
- In the Drawn Together episode "Clara's Dirty Little Secret", Clara thinks she is pregnant, and Toot suggests that she fall down some stairs. Clara thinks of a suitable room and leads them to the "M. C. Escher room", where Toot pushes Clara down (and up, around, and back down) a flight of stairs.
- In the Family Guy episode "Brian Goes Back to College", Stewie and Brian share a room where Stewie puts up a framed print of Relativity, which he calls "Crazy Stairs." He then breaks it while playing Ultimate Frisbee and asks "Oh no, did that hit crazy stairs?". In a later episode, "No Meals on Wheels", Peter complains that the fact that his new restaurant is attracting paraplegics "is weirder than that rap video by M.C. Escher." Escher is then depicted inside Relativity dressed like MC Hammer in "U Can't Touch This".[citation needed] and rapping, "Going up the stairs and going down the stairs and going up the stairs and going down the stairs and going up the sideways stairs."
- In the music video for the song Otherside by Red Hot Chili Peppers, the hero enters a room resembling the one in Relativity.
- In the Keroro Gunso episode "Keroro, Huge Transformation! A Massive Remodeling, near the end of the episode, it reveals that Keroro has remodeled part of the household to parody "Relativity".
- In Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening, one room is partially based on this.[clarification needed] The gravitational problems are compensated for by gravity switching to whichever staircase the player is about to climb.
- In The Matrix: Path of Neo, one section of the Merovingian's Rooms is based principally on this lithograph.
- In the climactic scene of the film Labyrinth, Jareth the Goblin King takes Sarah to a stairwell that closely resembles Relativity, and walk as if defying gravity. A copy of the picture can be seen hanging on her bedroom wall earlier in the film. The Escher estate was given acknowledgment in the credits for the film.[2]
- In Xiaolin Showdown, a Xiaolin Showdown with Grandmaster Dashi vs. Omi the village morphs to something like the lithograph.
- In Chrono Cross for the PlayStation, the second and third rooms of the Temporal Distortion area are based on Relativity. The first room is based on Van Gogh's works.
- In the film Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life the film's climax in the cradle also has several different gravity sources, which along with the lighting effects create a disorientating experience for the viewer.
- In the film A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child the heroine, Alice (Lisa Wilcox) faces Freddy in a series of steps similar to Relativity.
- In the anime Cardcaptor Sakura, The Maze card creates a maze similar to Relativity.
- Sierra's early PC adventure game Quest for Glory featured a puzzle room with multiple false exits and trap doors. The game's narrative jokingly wonders if the room was designed by M.C. Escher.
- Rappers Kid 'n Play used Relativity as inspiration for the cover art of their second album Funhouse.
- Christian rock band Prodigal mimicked Relativity for the cover art of its 1982 self-titled debut album. However, the inhabitants and much of the imagery is inspired by the song titles on the album.
- In AdventureQuest Worlds, the first lord of chaos is Escherion, who has the ability to invert objects and lives in a castle with an inside similar to "Relativity".
- In the video game Haunting Ground for PlayStation 2, there is a room modelled after the lithograph, complete with its inhabitants.
- In the anime Yu-Gi-Oh!, the Millennium Puzzle, an Egyptian artifact owned by the protagonist, is said to contain the spirit of an ancient Pharaoh. The insides of the puzzle look remarkably like Relativity, which represents the Pharaoh's inability to remember his past. When various characters enter the puzzle during the course of the series, there are multiple gravitational pulls and strange dimensions (such as the instance when a main character, Joey, looks through a door, only to see himself inside looking through the same door some distance below).
- In the game Gauntlet: Dark Legacy, the final level of the Dream Realm, known as the Maze of Illusion, is somewhat based around Relativity.
- In a Digimon episode, the heroes find themselves in a room where gravity is upside-down.[3][clarification needed]
- The it:X-Mickey comic Il giorno dei dimentiratti featured a chase in the center of the Relativity castle.[4]
- W.I.T.C.H. issue #74 features a fight in a house rearranged exactly as Relativity.[5]
- The Marvel comic book Avengers Forever #7 (June 1999) and the 2002 DC Comics book JLA/JSA: Virtue and Vice both feature a number of the story's superheroes finding themselves in a realm with multiple gravity sources assigned to different surfaces, much as in Relativity. In the former, the heroes almost immediately fall through space the moment they find themselves there. In the latter, they do not. Interestingly,[according to whom?] while the books were not written by the same author, both were illustrated by Carlos Pacheco.
- Other variations of Relativity appear in the Captain Future anime series ("The Comet Kings" part 3) and the Jackie Chan Adventures ("The Lotus Temple").
- In the Fighting Fantasy role-playing series book 45 Spectral Stalkers, Relativity is shown in a picture as the room of the mysterious Loremaster, whom the player may encounter.
- In Larry Niven's novel Protector, protagonist Brennan builds a working model of Relativity using gravitational engineering in his private world, Kobold.[6]
- In the manga Berserk, the realm occupied by the God's Hand demons resembles Relativity. The antagonists are able to bring themselves into that world, dubbed "Hell", through the use of the artifacts called Behelit.
- The chorus of the Teenage Fanclub song "Escher" from the album Thirteen contains the lines "and I don't know if I'm going up or down", an apparent reference to the theme of this picture.
- In the Walt Disney World version of Haunted Mansion, there is a room that reflects Relativity. It seems to go on forever, and has glowing, ghostly footprints ascending and descending the 'haunted' stairs.
- In the Sprint commercial "Manning's Mind", Peyton Manning views multiple copies of himself running the stairs of a real-life version of Relativity.
- In the manga series Aqua, one of the chapter covers features an M.C. Escher-like[according to whom?] world.
- An episode of Sonic the Hedgehog, "Blast from the Past", contains a scene where Sonic and Sally walk around a room full of stairs going at odd angles, reminiscent of "Relativity".
- In Persona 3, the distorted features of the tower Tartarus was inspired by Relativity.[citation needed] However the in-game gravity is linear and is not affected by the tower's design.
- The geometry textbook Discovering Geometry features one of Escher's lithographs on the first page of every chapter, and uses several lithographs in the chapter on tessellations.
- The PS3/PSP game Echochrome was inspired by M.C. Escher, namely Relativity influenced.[according to whom?]
- In Pokémon Platinum, a place called the Distortion World is featured, with different angles present and an isometric view based on a few of these art pieces, Relativity in particular.
- In the videogame Uncharted: Drake's Fortune there is an Escher-esque[according to whom?] level featuring upside down staircases leading to dead ends.
- The design of the Mines of Moria in the film adaptation of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring was largely inspired by Escher's work, "Relativity" in particular. A scrapped sequence in The Two Towers involving an "Endless Stair" made specific reference to "Relativity" in its concept art.
- The floors of Wayside School in the Canadian cartoon Wayside are depicted and based on this artwork, such as with sideways doors on walls and ceilings and stairs that can lead to another place or nowhere.
- In the Phineas and Ferb episode Gaming the System, a video game level had staircases much like the ones in M.C. Escher's work, Relativity. In the episode The Doof Side of the Moon, as Phineas and Ferb were taking Irving's brother through a skyscraper they had just made, Phineas calls a room with the same staircases found in the print Relativity the M.C. Escher room. In another episode, "Where's Perry? Part II", Dr. Doofenshmirtz comments on how Major Monogram's sunglasses go on the same side of his nose (his eyes are depicted on the same side of his nose), asking if M.C. Escher actually made these. Monogram replies that M.C. Escher was a close family friend of his.
- In a dream sequence within the film Inception, the architecture student Ariadne makes the streets of Paris bend and fold over themselves, forming a cube-like structure. In Christopher Nolan's shooting script for the film, the structure is described as having six perpendicular planes, with gravity functioning independently on each plane.
- In the intro of the animated series of The Addams Family a version of "Relativity" occurs within the Addams Family mansion.
- The CGI movie Mind's Eye contains one animation called "Prime Corporate Video", containing a colored 3D version of Relativity, showing the stick figure robots walking about and changing fields of gravity on their own.

- The Doctor Who episode "Castrovalva" takes its name from Escher's early lithograph of the same name, though Escher's view of Castrovalva has none of the paradoxical elements of his later works to which the setting of the episode could more readily be compared.[7]
- Eric Shanower's illustrations of the Absurd City in Paradox in Oz are clearly based on Escher's illustrations.[citation needed]

- In the film The Quiet Earth, Escher's Another World is seen on the wall of Zac Hobson's home during the surrealistic 'Effect Tremor' sequence. Given the subject matter of the film, the presence of the artwork is akin to a sly in-joke.
- In the Psygnosis game "Lemmings", the 18th level of "Taxing" is named "Tribute to M.C. Escher", as the solution involves building a zigzag stairway slightly reminiscent of "Relativity".
- Mott the Hoople's debut album's cover was Escher's Lizards.

- On the SyFy show Warehouse 13, Escher is said by the character Leena to be one of the architects, along with Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla, who designed the Warehouse. There is also the Escher Vault, the design of which is similar to the lithograph Relativity. Inside this vault, the stairwells and walls are constantly moving. Anyone not wearing specially designed glasses run the risk of being lost forever once inside. H.G. Wells is the only known individual to have successfully navigated the Escher Vault without glasses, instead using her Inperceptor Vest to retrieve personal items stored within.
- In the video game God of War III, the puzzle "Hera's Garden" is based on Escher's Waterfall.
- In the 2010 science fiction film Inception, where Arthur gives Ariadne a tour of the dream world in which an Escher design can be seen faintly in the background.
- In the 2010 Action/Adventure video game Dante's Inferno, the final part of the third circle, Gluttony, is depicted as a structure similar to the one featured in Another World, which the player must traverse in order to proceed to the next circle.

Has anyone brewed the True Brew Red Ale Extract Kit? I want to brew this for a family member who really likes Sam Adams Irish Red and Killians Irish Red.
I'm wondering if this will be in the ball park of an Irish Red? http://www.porterhousebrewshop.com/truebrewredale.aspx
Hey, I just brewed a True Brew Ale kit and it's definitely on the right track. You will need to add some roasted barley to it to make it an Irish Red though.
I have and like the results. It makes a good tasting brew.
Thanks to all for all of the replies!

that's the problem of human nature, we are insatiable consumers, an idea of renewable (endless) whatever it is (energy, material etc), makes us consume in amounts we could not before with traditional sources.
Sadly, "money is still being wasted on "renewables" which are not economic and "nuclear" which never was economic. So sad.
Just out of interest, would it be cheaper, economically, to reduce energy consumption through improving energy efficiency (either directly, through better electronics and a more flexible national grid or indirectly through things like insulating homes) than it would to build the same amount of renewable energy capacity?
You tend to hear an awful lot about renewable energy but it strikes me that increased energy efficiency would be cheaper because it reduces overall demand, which would also in turn mean less emissions and, through lower spending on utility bills, an improved economy. Or is that just misguided thinking on my part?
The commodities boom, coupled with improved industrial output in developing countries, has played a large role in stimulating demand for world energy. Transporting heavy commodities across continents comes at very high economic cost, whereas manufacturing raw materials is becoming more and more expensive with regards to energy input.
What is perhaps most satisfying about the diagram above is the increase in the consumption of non fossil fuel energy sources. It is still a long way, however, until we can claim this to be a sustainable change.

Northwest Hills rentals sit alongside wide, shady streets in one of Austin's more family-friendly neighborhoods. An affluent area, Northwest Hills gets high marks for quiet, safety, and community. Many homes here offer residents beautiful hill country views out over the Bull Creek Greenbelt. Of more debatable benefit, however, is the area wildlife. The deer population in Northwest Hills isn't small or shy. That's a plus if you're enjoying a stroll, but less appealing if you're driving around blind curves or trying to grow a garden. While there are some reasonable apartments around, renting a home in Northwest Hills can be costly.
This part of Austin was developed in the 1950s. David and Edward Barrow bought 2,000 acres of land at that time from Texas Crushed Stone-a company that used to operate a quarry here. Most of the houses in the area were constructed in the late 1960s or afterwards. As Austin boomed in the 1980s and on, Northwest Hills established its position as one of the more desirable suburban areas of the city.
Northwest Hills is well supplied with casual restaurants, community athletic facilities, and staples such as grocery stores. It's not so hot for nightlife, though. There are two shopping strips in the neighborhood, plus nearby malls. The popular Arboretum shopping center isn't far away either.

The tea cart:
The dining room table is set:
A close up:
The little white tree is dressed in green:
The shamrock lights are from Target dollar Spot:

Erin Go Bragh!
Your decorations look great, Candy.
The shamrock pieces in the curio are so pretty, I love the tea pot.
The outside of the house is really inviting!
The Motorcycle riding leprechaun is perfect on the tea cart.
Your table looks awesome.The gold placemats set the place settings off beautifully.
Are the chargers gold or clear with gold trim?
The little white tree is amazing, she takes on a new personality with each change of attire. she looks splendid in green
The shamrock lights are terrific. They add such a soft glow.
What can I say about the worlds largest leprechaun?
nobody is going to steal his gold! LOL
TFS your wonderful decorations.
Seeing them was a ray of sunshine .
i really enjoyed all your St Paddy green (did you know I love that color too! Green is calming to me, and takes me to "nature" where I want to be).
My favorite things are your tea cart and little white tree.
I love seeing them decorated 'gussied up'. ;o)
hugs, Karen
Jan, thank you. The leprechaun was given to me by some neighbors who were moving and didn't have room for him any more. They told me that they knew I would use him in my decor and they were right!
Nana, thank you too! Karen actually found out for me that the guy on the bicycle is a clothtique Santa and his title is "Wheels O'Green." Since he had shamrocks on his outfit, I felt he belonged here.
I found the beaded gold placemats at the Habitat TS and since it was Senior Day, they were .40c each!!
I also found the chargers at the same TS, different day. They are brass and it was not senior day so I had to pay full price, .75c each!! LOL well worth it for brass I think.
We are supposed to get a huge snowstorm tomorrow, We need the moisture, but its sure messing with my golf game. :(
Thanks again,
Wow, candy ...you must be Irish! Everything is just so adorable that I had to get up & dance a bit of a jig! :-)
I love that 'green tree' you added (I don't think I've seen it before) on the tea cart stacked plates! Shimmerin' green!! ...& the mugs are so cute there along with that bikin' fellow! The whole vignette is just adorable!
Love the t'scape, too! TFS! Jeanne S.
I am so out of it with decor lately ...been working on spare bedroom revamp...soon on Spring, I hope!
Wow Candy you sure did a wonderful job both
inside and out on your decorations! Love how your curio
looks and also how your white tree takes on a
different 'personality' from all the different holidays!
Your home always has such a festive atmosphere .
I think I hear 'Bagpipes' in the distance !! lol
Late getting here but have to tell you that I love what you do with the lights on your garage for each holiday. Love that little green tree, it looks so pretty. White tree is great and what a jolly fellow the big leprechaun is! Looks so nice Candy, good job. Luvs

What's needed: Rewrite properly including EVERYTHING and put all the missing storylinks
What could possibly be wrong with gaining knowledge and information?
This article is a stub and is missing information.
Kari Kamiya (八神 ヒカリ Yagami Hikari?) is a character in the anime and manga series Digimon Adventure and Digimon Adventure 02. She is the younger sister of Taichi "Tai" Kamiya. Kari is partnered with Gatomon, and embodies the trait of Crest of Light.
Kari and Tai's English dub surname is a mistranslation of the original name "Yagami". Kari's Japanese name, "Hikari" (ヒカリ?) means "light", a unique parallel with her crest's name. Also, her original full name "Hikari Yagami" translates to "light of the 8 gods", a possible reference to the number of the DigiDestined in the first season.
In 1995, Kari is a little girl with short brown hair and eyes. She wears a red shirt with long sleeves, yellow pants, pink socks, and shoes of undetermined color.[5] She also carries a gray whistle with a pink cord. Digimon Adventure She has two pajamas; one is a pink shirt and pants. The other is a yellow shirt under a brown bodysuit with buttons near the neck, and a koala-shaped hood. Digimon Adventure

At age 5,[6] Kari is a bit taller. She wears a dress with three buttons in the top of the back, socks, and shoes, all of undetermined color. Her pajamas are a buttoned shirt with short sleeves, and shorts, all of undetermined color.[7] My Sister's Keeper
By 1999, Kari is a bit taller, and her hair has grown a bit. She now wears a yellow shirt with two white buttons in the top, a pink scarf around the neck, pink pants, white socks, red and white sneakers, and her whistle. She gives her whistle to Gatomon when leaving the Digital World. The Fate of Two Worlds
Her pajamas are a beige buttoned shirt with long sleeves and white buttons, beige pants, and her whistle. She is usually barefoot while in her pajamas. Home Away From Home
On March 4,[8] 2000, she wears a pink dress with long sleeves, and a white collar with red borders and a red ribbon attached to it, cream colored stockings, and brown shoes. Our War Game!
On May 2000, when Gennai summons her back to the Digital World, she wears a sleeveless pinkish orange shirt with a white collar, pink shorts, yellow shoes with white soles, and a very similar whistle to the one she gave to Gatomon. Fusion Confusion
By 2002, Kari is much taller, and now pulls her bangs to the left with a red hairclip. She wears a white and pink turtlenecked shirt, pink fingerless opera gloves with an oval cut from the top of the palms, yellow shorts with a brown belt, white stockings, and pink and gray boots with black soles. She carries a digital camera hanging from a yellow cord from her neck. Digimon Adventure 02
During summer, she wears a pink sleeveless top with three red lozenges on the chest, a yellow kerchief around the neck, a pink wristwatch on her left wrist, a black and red wristband on her right wrist, purple shorts with a brown belt and a pocket for her camera, white socks, and white and yellow sneakers with a wing motif. Big Trouble in Little Edo
During winter, she wears a long sleeved pink sweater dress with red pockets and collar, light green tights, and brown boots. Outside, she wears a white beret and a red scarf. A Very Digi-Christmas While in Hong Kong, she wears her scarf around her waist. Digimon World Tour, Pt. 1
On March 25, 2003, she wears a pink dress under a blue jean jacket, yellow pants and pink shoes. Revenge of Diaboromon
In 2027, Kari is an adult. Her hair is now long, and she pulls her bangs to the left with two red hairclips. She wears a pink shirt with buttons running down the collar and white pants. Her ears are pierced and she wears yellow studs.
In the cover art for Digimon Adventure: Character Song + Mini Drama 2, Kari wears a Christmas costume; a red dress with three white buttons in the top, and a white ruff on each end, and a red hat with a white ruff on the bottom and a white ball in the tip.
In the cover art for Digimon Adventure: Character Song + Mini Drama 3, Kari wears a yellow kimono with a pink ohashori and a pink ribbon on her head.
In the cover for the Digimon Adventure: Takeru Takaishi & Hikari Yagami notebook, she wears a sleeveless turtlenecked shirt, a whistle around her neck, yellow shorts and white socks.
In the cover art for Digimon Girls Festival, the eight-year old Kari has the bangs of her hair splitted by a red hairclip, and wears a yellow party dress with white buttons in the chest, orange skirt and sleeves, and a yellow scarf.
Kari, by nature, is kind and sweethearted, always looking for the best in people, and avoids fighting them when possible. Still, she can be serious, especially in drastic situations. In Digimon Adventure 02, Kari has a bit of a playful and whimsical nature, but remains a sensible and grounded person. She believes herself to be weak, and hero-worships her older brother Tai for his strength and leadership skills well into adolescence.
Hikari Yagami (八神 ヒカリ)
Name used in Japanese materials. Officially romanized in Digimon Adventure: Official Encyclopedia II.
- Ja: Yagami (八神?). Japanese surname that means "eight gods".
- Ja: Hikari (ヒカリ?). A Japanese name. It is the katakana reading of a word that means "light".
Kari Kamiya
Name used in the English dub of Digimon Adventure.
- Kari. Derived from Hikari.
- Kamiya. A Japanese surname. Yagami (八神?) written backwards.
In 1995, Kari lives with her parents, Susumu and Yuuko, older brother, Tai, and the family's cat, Miko, at Highton View Terrace. One night that year, she witnesses an egg emerge from the family's computer. The next day, the egg starts to roll around the house and she chases it until it stops in her room and hatches into a Botamon, which Kari plays with by blowing her whistle while the Botamon uses his "Bubble Blow".
|This information is only considered valid within the Japanese continuity.
Tai suggests some names for the creature and Kari rejects all of them.
She feeds chocolate to Botamon and he digivolves into Koromon, and Kari gives Miko's food to him, which the creature retributes with a hug. Miko then starts fighting Koromon to take his food back and wins. After their mother comes back home, Kari talks to Koromon and introduces herself and Tai to him.
At night, Kari wakes Tai, noticing Koromon is strange. Koromon digivolves into a large Agumon, which Kari rides around the city while her brother chases after them. Agumon destroys a soda machine and Kari tries to get as many cans as possible, and then goes after Agumon.
|This information is only considered valid within the Japanese continuity.
She wonders why he's not talking to her anymore. Agumon tries to burn a truck that almost hit him using his "Pepper Breath", and later tries to attack a bus, which Kari begs for him to not do.
A gigantic Digi-Egg then appears above the city and hatches into a Parrotmon, and Agumon tries to fight it. Tai finds them and tells Kari to run away. As Parrotmon attacks, Agumon digivolves into a humongous Greymon in order to protect Tai and Kari, and the girl cries seeing him fight. Parrotmon manages to leave Greymon unconscious, and Kari tries to wake him up with her whistle, but because of her cries, she's unable to blow it properly, and Tai blows it. Greymon wakes up and defeats the Parrotmon, and both are sucked back into the Digital World.
At dawn, Kari calls for Koromon at the battle's remains. Digimon Adventure This event caused the two to be chosen to be among the new DigiDestined. The Ultimate Clash The destruction created by the battle caused it to be labeled a terrorist attack, and the Kamiya's moved away from the area. Return to Highton View Terrace
At age 5,[6] Kari was stricken with severe pneumonia. While their parents had left the two of them at home alone, Tai attempts to cheer her up by taking her to the park to play soccer, but she collapses while playing. She was taken to the hospital for weeks and nearly died, and when their mother gets there, she slaps Tai for endangering Kari. When Kari finally came home, she actually apologizes to Tai for not playing soccer correctly, only focusing on her own guilt; this caused Tai to feel outrageous guilt for endangering her life, and stuck with him for years. My Sister's Keeper
When the original seven DigiDestined entered the Digital World from summer camp, Kari was left behind, as she had been at home with the flu. She did not see any of the other DigiDestined. However, she was reunited with Tai when he was sucked into a dimensional warp following his successful victory over Etemon. He could only stay for a short while, and had to leave when he realized that the Digital World was in bad shape and needed his help.
Tai would later reunite with Kari again when he and the other DigiDestined entered the Real World to pursue Myotismon. Myotismon was seeking the eighth DigiDestined child. The other seven DigiDestined and Myotismon were specifically seeking the eighth Digivice. Gatomon, one of Myotismon's henchmen, was the first to realize that Kari was the eighth DigiDestined. Though, when she was about to kill her, Kari turned around and Gatomon lost her balance. She could never quite figure out why she couldn't kill Kari.
Wizardmon was the first one to find the eighth Digivice. He also realized that Gatomon and Kari were partners, and Gatomon remembered that she was looking for someone- looking for Kari. Wizardmon gave Kari her Crest of Light. However, when Myotismon discovered that Gatomon was the eighth DigiDestined's partner, he held her captive to try to find the eighth DigiDestined. Kari turned herself in to stop the pain his minions were inflicting. In a final showdown, Tai tossed Kari her Digivice, but DemiDevimon swiped it from her hand. Myotismon attempted to end the battle by using Grisly Wing on Kari, but Wizardmon stepped in and took the blow for her. When he died, Kari's grief leads to the activation of the Crest of Light and the Digivice to glow, which DemiDevimon couldn't hold on. Tai caught the Digivice and threw it to Kari, and Gatomon digivolved into Angewomon. All the other Digimon gave their power into one of Angewomon's attacks- Heaven's Charm. Then, she uses the power to send a celestial arrow through the heart of Myotismon. However, when the fog fails to disappear, Kari and T.K. guess that Myotismon isn't gone for good. When Myotismon returns, Kari and T.K. act on Gennai's prophecy by having Angemon and Angewomon shoot arrows of light through the hearts of their big brothers, Tai and Matt. This causes Agumon and Gabumon to warp digivolve to WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon.
Kari accompanies the seven other DigiDestined when they go back to the Digital World. During this time, an odd spirit speaks and acts through Kari's body at various times. Kari appears to be the only person who can communicate with this spirit. Even the digimon cannot hear this entity. When Tai and Matt get into a major fight, the spirit takes control of Kari's body and ends the fight. When underneath Machinedramon's city Kari watched with horror as the enslaved Numemon are beaten by WaruMonzaemon. She leads a revolt, deposing WaruMonzaemon, and the Numemon call her Queen Kari.
In the final confrontation with Piedmon after everyone but T.K. and Kari have been turned into little dolls or keychains, Kari and T.K. are left in great peril, hanging but a lone rope stretching to the sky. Kari mentions her fright which gives T.K. the hope to summon Angemon as MagnaAngemon- Angemon's higher form.
On December 31, 1999, Kari, wearing her pajamas, Joe, Matt, and their Digimon were captured by Myotismon, who has been ressurrected by Millenniummon, and taken to the Server Continent. After Ryo Akiyama defeats Myotismon and saves them, Kari begs the boy to save her brother, and returns to the Real World. Anode/Cathode Tamer
|This information is only considered valid within the English continuity.
At some point, Kari volunteered to be sawed in half by a magician for Senri Hori's birthday party.
In March 4,[8] 2000, Kari shows her birthday gift for Senri to Tai, who tries to take it. She then sends his e-mail and he screams at her for it, and she leaves. She and her friends arrive at Senri Hori's birthday party. When Senri is about to blow to candles, Tai calls her asking for help in the battle against Keramon, but she says she can't go.
|This information is only considered valid within the Japanese continuity.
Later, when the girls are playing a card game, Tai calls again asking for help.
On May 2000, Gennai calls the DigiDestined back to the Digital World in order to give up their Crest power to fully revitalize the Digital World with a protective barrier. As a result, Gatomon loses the power to become Angewomon. Fusion Confusion
While searching for Gatomon's lost Tail Ring, Kari, Yolei, and Ken ended up in the Dark World. Upon finding the Dark Ocean, Kari began to lose her composure due to her last visit. She and Ken struggled under the hold of the Dark Ocean. This event was taken advantage of by a Blossomon. It took Yolei's slap and words to make the two see eye-to-eye. This gave Aquilamon and Gatomon the power to DNA digivolve to Silphymon; it also gave Kari the heart to help Ken.
During Christmas, Kari, Izzy and their Digimon were sent to Hong Kong to help the Asian DigiDestined, where all three of the Poi brothers developed a crush on her. After sending all of the Digimon back to their world and destroying all the Control Spires, she and the other DigiDestined faced the threat of Yukio Oikawa. He kidnapped Ken and planted Dark Spores into other children. Kari and the other DigiDestined didn't realize that he was being controlled by the disembodied spirit of Myotismon.
After harvesting the Dark Spores, Myotismon emerged from Oikawa, becoming MaloMyotismon. After some fighting, MaloMyotismon created a world of illusions; each DigiDestined was subjected to their true desires and wants. Kari's desire was for humans and Digimon to live side by side, making it a better world for everyone. Gatomon and Raidramon broke her free of the illusion. She then joined with the other kids, who were in the process of breaking free of their illusions. Kari used the power of the dream dimension and wished for Gatomon to become stronger; she split into Angewomon and Nefertimon and DNA Digivolved with Aquilamon to become Silphymon, all three forms appearing at the same time. After the fighting stopped, Kari saw one of her dreams come true. Both the Real World and Digital World lived in peace together.
When Kari and T.K. visited Mimi—another old DigiDestined in New York, they encountered Willis- another DigiDestined—and his Digimon, Terriermon and Wendigomon. While on a train for Colorado, Kari sent an e-mail to the other DigiDestined, who made their way to America to help her and T.K. But on the way, their train was hindered by Wendigomon so they had to continue on foot. They managed to join up with the others during the fight with Cherubimon. Angewomon and Angemon had to digivolve to their mega-forms to release the powers of the golden digi-eggs so Veemon and Terriermon could golden armor digivolve. Digimon Hurricane Landing!!/Transcendent Evolution!! The Golden Digimentals
Kari was kidnapped by Boltmon along with Mimi and Sora. When Pukumon entered the scene with a Control Spire, Joe was knocked into the Adventure 02 Digital World and Kari somehow ended up with Cody's D-Terminal, allowing Gatomon to Armor Digivolve to Butterflymon. Armor Evolution to the Unknown
3 years after the events of 'Our War Game', the evil Digimon virus, Diaboromon, resumed his reign of terror on the Internet. The Kuramon were bio-emerging via e-mail, so while Tai, Matt, and their Digimon entered cyberspace to battle Diaboromon once more, the others had to track down the Kuramon. Yolei and Kari found the first one and caught it for Izzy to examine. While Omnimon was being overpowered by Diaboromon, Kari and T.K., with their Digimon, had gone to help their older brothers. But Kari was soon forced to watch the battle between Imperialdramon Fighter Mode and Armageddemon. Revenge of Diaboromon
At some point, she and the other Adventure 02 DigiDestined encountered Parallelmon, who absorbed her, T.K., Yolei, and Cody, and inadvertently sent Davis into the V-Tamer 01 continuity. Kari and the others helped Davis from inside the monster by recreating the Digi-Egg of Miracles. With the monster destroyed, Davis and his friends returned to their continuity. Double Tamer!! The Great Super-dimensional Battle!!
In 2027, Kari became a kindergarten teacher that actually likes being in school and has a son, who has a Salamon as a digimon partner, and also seemingly inherited his mother's whistle. A Million Points of Light
PSP game
With Mimi, she holds a funeral for the DigiDestined's fallen friends. When Myotismon is revived by Apocalymon, Kari refuses to give up and tells Tai that she and Gatomon will fight him, which causes Gatomon to warp digivolve to Ophanimon.

Digimon World Re:Digitize: Decode
Taiga can fight Kari in the Colosseum.
During the "Miko of Light" Free Battle in 40F, Kari appears to be in a different state from when she previously met Taiga. Kari asks who Taiga is, and if he'll save the Digital World, and tells him to show his "light". If Angewomon is defeated, she tries to say something, but suddenly returns to normal and doesn't remember why she's in the Colosseum. She notices the Crest of Light is reacting, and comes to the conclusion Taiga called her. She then trusts that Taiga will be able to use the Light Chip, which has the power of the Crest of Light loaded in it, and gives it to him.
Kari has three theme songs: Holy Light, Yasashii Ame (? lit. "Gentle Rain"), and "Reflection" as well as a fourth one sung with Tailmon (Yuka Tokumitsu) called Shining Star.

1 Thing
by Thrill
posted Jun 5 2012 5:29PM
An Oregon jury awarded a 49- year- old woman $900,000 after she claimed that a 69- year- old man INTENTIONALLY gave her herpes. Oddly enough, she's from Beaverton... and she says that she now suffers from "painful and (unsightly) outbreaks". Anyway, she won the money. Her name? She kept her name under wraps because, you know, she has herpes. So she has money and gets to keep her anonymity. That WON'T be the case for 5 of the 10 sexually abused victims of former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky. The judge in the case ruled yesterday that they will have to testify using their real names, thus, sharing with the world that they were raped by another man. That's not the kind of thing you brag about. If you're a kid with lice, you don't brag about THAT. In fact, to avoid being known for having the dreaded 'cooties', you try to keep your lice a secret... and that's why they DON'T want to be seen going into 'Lice Knowing You' on Mercer Island... a place you go to de- lice your kid's cootie- riddled head. Great service, but embarrassing to be seen going in... or coming out. This leads to today's question: WHAT ENBARRASSING THING DID YOU HOPE NO ONE WOULD FIND OUT ABOUT YOU... AND THEN, WHO FOUND OUT?
His mother walked in on him "punching the clown" when he was 16... he was pleauring himself to a store catalog IN THE LIVING ROOM! ever, ever MASTURBATE IN THE LIVING ROOM. I didn't masturbate in the living room when I lived alone!
Didn't want his girl to know that he was chubby in his youth (???)... parents came over and brought a newspaper clipping of him as a kid. Nice article, but he was the "fat kid" in the picture
She's in cosmetology school and is one of those people who doesn't use public bathrooms... on this particular day, her butt was explosive and she had to break her trend and use the bathroom at the school. AFTER she released pooped, she discovered that the back of her skirt was IN the toilet... and covered with poop
Voluntarily slept in the same bed as his mother until he was 8- years- old... I find that very disturbing. I just do.
His friend had a "bad stomach" after eating Chinese... nowhere to go, so he ducked into someone's front yard and unloaded his brown cargo. The bad part is that he had to wipe his ass on his own shirt
Decided to "rub one out" at school... didn't realize that everyone in the caffeteria could see him... and did
Crapped his pants at a grocery store... ditched his pants and wrapped himself in a towel... came home to a house full of friends, having to explain why h was wearing a towel, but not pants
Tomorrow is Metal Day here at KISW, so to celebrate; we played the 10 Best Metal Sons of All Time. Just so you know, none of the songs were metal by genre, they were just songs that had a metal in the title, so really, all of the songs sucked... and they sucked bad.
Outta here, bitches.
Until tomorrow, rock, roll and STAY BEAUTIFUL!"

I lived at La Calera for three years and I can't say nothing but great things about the property. Grounds are Read Morewell kept and apartments are in great conditions.

Mini Pendant Lights: Interchangeable Glass Shades?
DH and I are just beginning to look for mini pendants for our new kitchen and are entering foreign territory. A significant part of our interest is the idea of periodically buying different glass shades for them. Online photos suggest that there are a few *collar* shapes and sizes (don't know the proper term) used on zillions of mini pendants. Can we reasonably anticipate being able to buy new shades in the future, or do the shapes and diameters of the *collars* and shades change so much that we should buy several sets of alternate shades when we buy the fixtures?
Check out WAC and buy the shades you like at the same time.
They have plenty of fixtures which use a variety of shades.
Manufacturers will frequently change the specs of a fixture or discontinue the fixture without notice. It would be much easier on you to buy the replacement shades at the same time as the fixtures.
My kitchen use pendant lighting buy at amazon.
Here is a link that might be useful: pendant lighting
Buy anything you want at the same time as the fixtures.
There are no hard standards governing fixture shade design.
The next manufacturing lot may not be compatible with previous lots.
Some fixture globes have not changed in years, but those are the exception more than the rule.

Spotted this bit of inspiration, thought I'd share it with you.
Well, here's the thing. A faithful drunk coming home at 3:00 am is marginally better than an unfaithful drunk coming home at 3:00 am. But I wouldn't want either one of them coming to my house at 3:00 am!

What Does a Nutritionist Soccer Mom Bring for Snacks?
Posted Jul 15 2010 12:00am
I had a short stint as a soccer mom this past spring when my 3 year old was taking a soccer class.
While getting ready for his first soccer class, we packed a quick snack. Then we had some extra time. So at my son's request in honor of this special day, we went to watch the Metro North trains and picked up some "warm chocolate" from Dunkin' Donuts. "Warm chocolate" is my son's made-up version of hot chocolate: a little bit of hot chocolate mixed with lots of milk. Then we walked over to Central Park for his first class, my son drinking his warm chocolate and munching on the snack I packed: half a green pepper.
I'm a nutritionist; my family usually eats healthy snacks. But I was reminded that many kids are not as often exposed to health foods upon my arrival at soccer class. That half of pepper sparked three conversations among different parents upon our arrival: "How did you get your son to eat that?" "What an interesting idea..." "I never thought of that, that is an easy snack!"
More recently, I was on the subway with my kids and my older son munching on a whole cucumber. That elicited a similar string of questions from fellow strap-hangers.
Upon first hearing these types of questions, I used to think "Oh no, don't talk about it in front of my son, he thinks everyone eats like us, please don't ruin it!" But after a year in a preschool filled with not-as-healthy snacks, such as white bread, American cheese, Ritz crackers, chocolate chips as potty-training rewards (oy!), my son understands that we eat a little differently than other people and is now proud to tell people that I am a nutritionist.
I usually go on to explain to these inquisitive parents, that we simply have always had snacks like these on hand so he doesn't need convincing and he actually likes them (let's call this
Prevention -
as in prevention of the problem). Which inevitably leads to great conversations about how to convince kids to eat healthy snacks who have grown up with more conventional snacks (let's call this
). Basically, repeat, repeat, repeat and sneak.
That is, (1) keep bringing it along and offering it even if they say no on days 3, and 10, and if that does not work (2) mix it up with some other snacks to sneak it in. Get it? Repeat, repeat, repeat, and sneak!
How can you sneak in some healthy snacks?
Your kid loves Fruit-by-the-Foot or other "fruit-flavored" chewy snacks? Make it a red-snack-day! Mix a baggie of chewy snacks and add other red food, such as dried cranberries, strips of red pepper, strawberries, dried mango, dried apple.
Loves goldfish and other cheese crackers? Mix it up with small pieces of whole-grain no-trans-fat crackers.
Loves pretzels and other crunchy snacks? Mix in some crunchy celery and carrots for a crunch-a-long snack.
In my experience, most of the time the healthy foods gets eaten along with the rest of the snack.
If kids refuse to eat the healthy snack, tell them they don't have to eat all the foods, but they have to keep it in the bag, and (here is the most important part) while they don't have to eat the snack if they don't like it,
there is no other snack
. You are the parent and you make the decision of
what and when
the food is being served. Let your kid to decide
if and how much
they will eat. I think Ellyn Satter was the first nutritionist to introduce this concept, but many now claim it as their own. (This works very nice at meal times too: "You don't have to eat the white beans but keep them on your plate." Sectional plates help with kids who do not like food touching other food)
Do not assume he/she won't eat it because you don't like it or because they did not like last year, keep trying. Repeat, repeat, repeat, and sneak! (At mealtimes for example, you can mash white beans into mashed potatoes)
Besides the fact that people are surprised at the foods we eat as snacks, I really think they are sometimes more surprised by the form: some days, I have been known to tote half a pepper, a whole cucumber, a whole apple, half an ear of corn, a handful of string beans, a peeled whole orange... You get the point. My snacks are not always in appropriate snacking form, or in snack cups or baggies. Why not? Sometimes, I just don't have the time. So instead of grabbing a bag of chips, I raid the fridge. When the mornings are crazed and we just need to get out already, who has time to cut up snacks? Of course you can pack up the night before but as we know, that doesn't always happen. So on those mornings is when you will usually find me rinsing some fruit under the sink and throwing it in our bag, grabbing some whole-grain rice cakes, grabbing the Tupperware of the left-over vegetables. Almost as easy as grabbing a bag of chips! Don't laugh, I did say almost.
And what do I like to pack my snacks in? The
Arrow Pack-a-Snack
(BPA-free) or you can
Here are a few easy ideas to get you started down the road of easy healthier snacking and feel free to comment and tell me what healthy snacks you like to pack up:
Half or whole bell peppers, or cut into strips
Whole cucumber, or cut into strips
Apples, pears, peachs, plums, etc...
Frozen peas and corn (throw them into a snack cup, good frozen or defrosted)
Whole grain crackers (We love Barbara's Wheatines)
Assorted dried fruit- apricot, fig, plums a.k.a prunes, apples
Cheese sticks
Brown-rice or spelt "rice" cakes
Peel an orange and wrap it in paper-towel/sandwich bag
Individual portions of yogurt or cottage cheese
Whole-grain breakfast cereal
Trail mix
Left-over half-sandwich
Baby carrots or cut them yourself to save money (I try to cut a 1-pound bag of carrots and celery at the beginning of the week and put it into baggies for snacking or cooking)
What is your go-to snack?

Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2015 Ford Escape
By KBB.com Editors
In the auto business, it doesn't take long to go from the top of your game to playing catch-up. So it seems is the case with the Ford Escape; a versatile and fuel-efficient compact SUV, but one starting to grow old, and fast. Though given a thorough freshening two years back, the Escape finds itself surrounded by newer and larger compacts, some capable of carrying up to seven passengers. It does not feature the latest advancements in stability control, nor does it offer the latest gadgets such as DVD navigation. Still, the Escape is a sturdy and proven vehicle, one well-suited to the needs of individuals and small families with active life styles and tight budgets.
If you like the feeling of sitting up higher than in a sedan or wagon, and you also need an easily accessible and roomy cargo area, you'll like the Ford Escape. The Escape's manageable size makes it easy to maneuver in traffic and tight parking areas, and its big back seat offers lots of legroom for rear-seat passengers.
If you're looking for an SUV with a high/low transfer case for serious off-roading or a third-row seat, the Escape is not your vehicle.
A keypad entry feature is now standard on all XLT trims.
Driving Impressions While the base model's 2.3-liter engine can certainly move the Escape, it's no rocket. If fuel economy is not your top priority, the 3.0-liter V6, which produces a hardy 200...horsepower, is the engine of choice. The base Escape is a front-wheel-drive vehicle, but it offers an on-demand four-wheel-drive system designed to engage only when it detects wheel slippage. The Escape's suspension is engineered to give it car-like ride and handling characteristics, but is still tough enough to go off-road. Part of the secret to getting a smooth, quiet ride is in the choice of tires. In the case of the Escape, the standard tires are wonderful for highway driving, but may be lacking when going off-road. The truth of the matter, however, is that very few people actually do go off-road, but many drivers must deal with slippery conditions, such as snow or ice. For those situations the original equipment tires should be just fine.
Expandable Roof Rack
The Escape's expandable roof rack allows for maximum cargo loading.
Big Rear Seat
The Escape's big rear seat offers 35.6 inches of legroom.
The Escape's interior is practically luxurious, with high-quality materials used throughout the cabin. The instrument panel design is easy to live with, and the redesigned center console moves the shift lever from the steering column to the floor. A roomy rear seat with loads of legroom and a generous cargo hold are the other Escape strong points. Because the Escape does not sit high off the ground, the roof is relatively easy to reach, an important point when loading or removing equipment such as bikes or skis.Exterior
The Escape looks like a miniature Explorer. It's a handsome little SUV that projects an image of toughness and fun. Bright exterior colors, big wheels and tires and a number of exterior packages can convert the Escape into a weekend beach cruiser or a super-plush family vehicle.
The Escape XLS features a 2.3-liter, four-cylinder engine, five-speed manual transmission, anti-lock brakes (ABS), air conditioning, rear defroster, engine immobilizer, illuminated keyless entry, dual power mirrors, AM/FM stereo with CD, folding rear seat, tilt wheel, power door locks, rear wiper/washer, power windows and 15-inch steel wheels. The V6 XLT Sport model adds a 200-horsepower 3.0-liter engine, automatic transmission, cruise control, six-disc CD changer, alarm system, six-way power driver's seat and alloy wheels.
Options include a four-speed automatic transmission, auto-off headlamps, four-wheel drive, 200-horsepower 3.0-liter V6, leather seats, roof rails, power moonroof, front side-impact airbags, side-curtain airbags, audiophile stereo system and side-step bars.
The four-cylinder engine is recommended for those seeking maximum fuel economy. It's peppy, provides good low-end torque and can be mated to a five-speed manual transmission. The V6 is more than adequate to move the Escape quickly, but is available only with an automatic transmission and gets slightly worse fuel economy.

"Three things I have been unhappy with. The driver's seat belt cuts into my neck, there's no sync technology, and the instrument panel does not have an outside temperature reading. Otherwise, I love this car. I't's only had minor repairs in the nine years I've owned it."

"This ford escape was my first car and if you are looking to get a great first car for someone this is just a beautiful car, the only problem is there is too many of them on the road. The car also does beautifully in the snow."

"I bought my Escape brand new in 2006 and it has 221,000 miles on it. I've had only routine maintenance and minimal at that. Very conscientious about oil changes and the car just keeps going and going like the Energizer Bunny. I average 23 mpg every fill-up but more if I'm on the highway on a trip. It has been a great car for the money - sporty looking and acting, roomy inside for gear, dogs, saddles, furniture... it feels like a best friend - comfortable and dependable."

I owned and sold this car
Reason: I wanted a german car
Pros: "Reliable, spacious, pretty fast"
Cons: "Noisy, rear seats should have A/C"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 7
"I had a 2007 Ford Escape manual transmission. I like driving manual but needed a car with more space. I got the Escape at 120k miles and sold it around 150k miles. The car is reliable. It can get you to long distances without any troubles. I never had to fix mine except the rear left window which wasn't working. It cost me less than $100 to repair. I'd recommend this car to those looking for spacious small SUV with a low budget. The mpg is alright, feels like 18mpg"

"Got this car new for my daughter, had a lot of zip for a small car. Liked it because it was dependable, just made sure to change the oil on a regular basis. My daughter will sell it now because she now has a Prius which gets much better MPG. The new Escape Titanium has much more in the way of extras. Technology!"

Mahmudullah and Shakib Al Hasan's 145-run seventh-wicket stand helped Bangladesh avoid the follow-on against New Zealand on the third day of the one-off Test on Wednesday. Bangladesh made 408 in its first innings, after which New Zealand was nine for one at close in its second essay.
Mahmudullah made a 177-ball 115 with 17 fours and two sixes. After a circumspect beginning, he went on to score his runs with great finesse.
Shakib picked the gaps with ease for his 15 boundaries. He consumed 104 balls for his 87.
The duo had rescued Bangladesh when the side was 196 for six. The partnership was a Bangladesh record for the seventh wicket.
