Nice pics and stuff, cool Mania....let's see someone bitch about being late on the news on that one!!
Mania was on hand to witness the the first images ever seen from Star Wars Rebels, including the logo. Though no actual footage was shown, Supervising Director and Executive Producer Dave Filoni did treat the audience with concept art of his own and the Ralph McQuarrie images that have inspired the show.
There wasn't much that he could reveal about the show though. Will it have a goal of 100 episodes like Clone Wars? Right now, Filoni just hopes to get the show finished on time. Exactly how much time has lapsed since Episode III? Well that he wouldn't reveal. When asked if there were any Clone Wars characters going to appear in this new series Filoni just smiled. He told us that Star Wars characters are near and dear to his heart, especially ones he created. Then he just smiled.
Since this is Star Wars Celebration there was immediate swag and exclusives t-shirts for Star Wars Rebels. At the very bottom is the button they handed out and one of the t-shirts on sale here in Germany. The other shirt just featured the logo. This blue print shirt of "The Ghost" (also featured int he concept art) is pretty damn cool.
Here is the official press release from Lucasfilm:
Star Wars Rebels Executive Producer Dave Filoni pulled back the curtain on Lucasfilm's highly anticipated animated series for Star WarsCelebration Europe attendees today, discussing the huge influence of original Star Wars concept artist Ralph McQuarrie on the look and feel of the show, and revealing the series' unique logo and select designs. Filoni talked at length about the use of McQuarrie art as a springboard for the series, showcasing many works from the original trilogy, including landscapes and characters, and detailing how they inform the visual identity of Star Wars Rebels.
While unable to attend in person, Executive Producers Simon Kinberg and Greg Weisman shared their excitement for the series in a video message recorded specifically for Celebration attendees.
Star Wars Rebels is scheduled to premiere in fall 2014 as a one-hour special telecast on Disney Channel, and will be followed by a series on Disney XD channels around the world.
For more information about the Star Wars Rebels panel at Celebration Europe 2, visit www.starwars.com.
Nice pics and stuff, cool Mania....let's see someone bitch about being late on the news on that one!!
The Ghost? Could it be Snips?
Line up for this show: Vader, the Emp, Tarkin, Boba Fett, Jabba, Greedo, young Liea, Bail Organa, Mon Mothma, Ackbar, other Jedi who have survived...
Sounds like a good cast to me...

Orders placed by 1pm typically ship same day!
Sonoma Valley's unique natural beauty, luxury and organic goodness are captured in this gentle Bar Soap, Made with Ingredients That Call Sonoma Home.
Clean the World® Soap Saves Lives! For every bar you buy, five recycled bars will go to people in need.
As frequent business travelers, we wondered, "What happens to the soap and shampoo we leave behind in our hotel room?" The answer was, "It gets thrown away." In fact, the hospitality industry throws away tons of soap every day.
Sonoma Soap Company also discovered that people around the world are literally dying for soap. In fact, 3.5 million children under the age of 5 will die this year from illnesses that could have been prevented by the use of soap. We founded Clean the World to deal with this incredibly tragic situation.
By recycling and distributing soap and hygiene products to people in need around the globe, Clean the World is eliminating waste and preventing disease. When you purchase this product, Sonoma Soap Company makes a donation to Clean the World to help with this mission.
It is a simple proposition that can have a powerful impact. Thanks for buying this product. Together we are Recycling Soap and Saving Lives.

So you want a well-mannered kid? It's actually not that hard. But there is a catch; you have to be well-behaved yourself...
One out of six couples have difficulties conceiving. But going through a fertility investigation may be enough to help you get pregnant. And sometimes just talking to your gynacologist.
IVF is used in all cases of involuntary childlessness. And after three attempts with IVF as many as almost two thirds are parents.
Shyness is a matter of personality. So it's not your child who has to change; it's you. Maybe it sounds harsh. But it's not hard at all. It just requires less pushing.
Siblings' fights are common, squabbling and arguing is more or less a part of family life. But perhaps that knowledge isn't enough for you to keep your cool and stay sane. Carry on reading and get some tips on how to keep the peace around the house.
Perhaps you're even more excited than your kid, who knows, but after all it's the first day of preschool. Here're some little things to make the transition smoother.
Friendships are one of the most important things there are. But it's not really until now your kid will actually make friends. It takes time to get all the skills you need to be a friend.
From planning to flying. From packing to sightseeing. From expectations to reality. Here is your guide to traveling with your toddler – the great adventure!
No empathy to talk of, egocentric to say the least. The only part of give-and-take they can relate to is "take". But with time and practice they will learn the basics of how to be a good friend. And you can help.

Genetic Testing: I'm Getting Tested for the BRCA Gene Mutation (AKA The Breast Cancer Gene Mutation)
Remember when Angelina Jolie's article came out in the NYTimes earlier this year? She wrote about how a positive test result for the BRCA1 gene mutation led to her to take drastic measures to avoid the 87% chance she had of developing breast cancer. I was extremely judgmental of her article. I hated how it felt like everyone was congratulating her for being so brave. With my family history, I always assumed I had the BCRA gene mutation but didn't have the means to do what she did. When my friend Sarah shared the article on Facebook, my reply lacked understanding. Knowing what I do now, I wish I could take the comment back. But it was my gut reaction. Here's a screenshot of my mortifying response:
Sadly, I don't think I was the only one writing critical things about the article. I cringe when I think about it now.
So when I was at the doctor's office last Friday for a regular check-up, and she asked if I ever thought about taking the BRCA gene mutation test, I replied much like I did to the article, "Sure, I've thought about it. But why? I assume I have it. What could I possible do with that information? It's so expensive anyway. I could never afford the test or the measures I'd need to take to avoid cancer."
She responded, "Well, for one, you could find out you don't have the mutation and have peace of mind. That would be nice. And if you're positive, you'd be monitored closer, get more mammograms each year and be assigned a breast specialist. And plus, with your history, I'm pretty sure your insurance will cover most, if not all, of it."
I thought for a minute and realized I was curious to find out. I always was. I told her I'm interested as long as my insurance will cover it. She assured me if it didn't, then I would be notified and decide what to do from there. I decided to go for it.
"Ok," she said, "I'll go get it."
Wait, I thought. Go get it, now? Like the test kit is your office? It's this simple? Minutes later the nurse was drawing blood and shipping it to a lab in Salt Lake City. I find out the results in a few weeks.
I wish the results didn't take so long. I wish I would have taken this test sooner. At the time the article came out last May, I had the exact same insurance I have now. The exact same family history. I could have gotten it then and had the results months ago. But now I'm stuck waiting around for the results. I call the lab everyday to find out the status of my test. Everyone on the phone is so kind and encourage me to call anytime. Currently, I'm waiting for my doctor to submit a required form. As soon as she does, the lab will proceed with my order.
I'm trying to keep my mind off of it and hope everything will turn out fine. It probably will be. I hate this waiting place though. It's such a useless place. I can't wait to escape. There's fun to be done!

you're smart and brave to get the test done! it must be so hard to wait for the results, but just think how much sooner you will know then if you didn't take the test at all. hang in there. and do something awesomely fun in the mean time: ice cream and more dancing with that cute family. you deserve it, lady.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this - the only form of cancer in my family that I know of is lung cancer in one case and skin cancer in a few cases, so the only thing I do is have a doctor look at my skin and moles every now and then ... I can't imagine life with a fear of breast cancer - but I think I would safe up everything I have if insurance wouldn't cover the operation. Let's hope your test results will be back soon and not too negative. I wish you all the luck in the world.

Good luck with the test (and the waiting period). Let us know what you hear back!
Suzanne - AnonymousSeptember 26, 2013 at 1:38 PM
Sharon, I am hoping that you'll come back negative, but you should know that with your family history, you are still likely at high genetic risk even if you do. BRCA1 and 2 have been isolated (and I feel lucky -- I know I'm BRCA positive and I'm taking preventative measures to manage the risk) but researchers know there are many other genes that mutate that run in families and cause high rates of cancer -- they just haven't been isolated yet. I don't mean to be Debbie Downer, I just don't want you or anyone else with breast cancer in their families to feel that because they don't have a BRCA mutation, it doesn't mean they're not in a high risk category. I'm not a doctor, but if I were in your shoes I'd still get mammograms and 2x/year breast MRIs so that you can be watched closely. My two cents!
ReplyDelete I totally understand your reaction to angelina jolie's article and I wished we could pay more attention to the every day héroes more than the "beautiful and famous héroes".
Either way, the chances of having some sort of cáncer are not very rare so it is important to keep up with the medical check ups and do our best to have good spirits and follow all the medical recommendations.
good luck !!Sharon - thank you so much for sharing this. I have never commented on any of your posts about your mom, but this one really hit home to me. My mom also died of breast cancer in her 50s. Three months before my mom died, my grandma died of a rare kind of glandular cancer. Then, just later year, my other grandma died of breast cancer after only treating it for about a year. Cancer blows chunks.
With that background, I also had a bit of a negative reaction to Angelina's article, but I was trying not to be judgmental and I did respect her choice to share her experience with the world. I was also negative about the article because I also did not think I could afford to take the genetic test.
You have inspired me to check into what it would cost to take this test and suck up the out of pocket costs. I need some peace of mind as well. I am 10 years off of the age when my mom was diagnosed (42) and I don't want the years to tick buy and feel like a time-bomb. I can't live in fear.
But I agree, waiting sucks, and I appreciate you sharing your fear with us!My mom had tested positive and passed away of ovarian cancer at 55. I did the test last year. I live in Canada and the test, and all related surgeries are covered by provincial health insurance. I tested positive and am waiting on a date for my double mastectomy, which should be happening before the end of the year.
People were so judgmental of Angelia when her story came out and I've definitely heard my fair share of judgmental comments already. Oh well.My mom recently had this test due to our strong family history. She was extremely nervous but kept telling me she was doing it for me and my brother. She tested negative, which means that my brother and I are both negative as well! happy day! The waiting is the hardest part.
ReplyDeletePretty much every one on my mom's side has had breast cancer (my grandma and mom died from it), and when my mom was still alive her longtime (25 yrs) oncologist always bugged my sister and me to get the test. Finally I decided I would because my insurance covered it, and a cousin of my mom's had had it done previously and thus it would be easier and less expensive to isolate the gene path in my family. I tested negative, but my older sister tested positive. For me, this information has been very difficult to digest: my sister will probably get cancer and I probably won't. I feel tremendous guilt and a strong desire to be the one who is positive.
My cousin also tested positive - she opted for the full Angelina Jolie and is happy with her choice. My sister opted for increased screenings (every six months an MRI, every other six months a mammogram) and nothing more. She's 31 and has a 2 yr old daughter with the hopes of having more children. I worry about her getting cancer all the time.- AnonymousSeptember 26, 2013 at 4:40 PM
Oh Sharon. Such a timely post. My Mum was diagnosed with ovarian cancer 3 years ago. Six moths later, my sister found out she had breast cancer. Both began chemotherapy and last year, my sister was given the all clear. Six months ago, she was told that the cancer had not gone but had actually spread to her brain and lungs. Last week, we found out that the cancer has spread to my Mums bones.
I'm in pieces. I'm scheduled to meet with doctors in October and they will decide from there whether or not ill be tested for the BRCA gene. Ill go privately if they say no.
Ill be thinking of you whilst you wait for the results.
Thanks for this post. - AnonymousSeptember 26, 2013 at 5:18 PM
Hi, I was diagnosed with breast cancer at the beginning of this year and I am clean of cancer now (for now?). I had the BRCA test done before Angelina Jolie's piece came out. I did it, because although I have no cancer in my family history, I have two sisters and two daughters. (The test came back negative).
I did a lot of research about the test, including insurance coverage, and learned that for once the complicated financial relations within the medical/pharmaceutical world work in my benefit. It is definitely an ease of mind and it's important information for the family. Like yourself, no one should dismiss the idea immediately, if they think they are at risk. They should call their insurance company, or ask their doctors/nurses about the payment option.
Good luck to you and those who responded above. This is such a heartfelt post. I wish for you that you get the results quickly and that it is good news. I feel really sad that you would have to consider finances in relation to health though, I hope other people who have a similar family history to yours are also able to access whatever healthcare they need without having to worry about financial impact
ReplyDeleteThis is a pretty serious week of posts. You keep it real around here, which I really admire. I can certainly understand that those who have a history with breast cancer, especially losing your mom, might have complicated feelings about this test and preventative surgeries. Without that personal history, I know that if there was a test out there that was relevant to me and would tell me something about my chances of dying before my son goes to college, I would spend every dollar I have on it and sell everything I own if I didn't have the money.
I really hope the test is negative for you. Either way, knowledge is power.THANK YOU for posting this. Cancer is huge in my family too, not just breast, but pick your organ, we got it. With the delivery of my baby this spring, I've met my insurance deductible and I'm very interested in finding out what tests are covered. Obviously it's not a guarantee, but I do think it would help flag anything I should pay particular attention to.
Good luck with everything and I hope you get your results swiftly! xoxoMy mom was diagnosed with breast cancer about two years ago (She was 60). It was caught early in a routine mammogram (she couldn't even feel the lump). She has since had surgery and radiation and is in the clear now... Since she was diagnosed I've been amazed how many people I know also have moms, grandmas, and aunts who have survived breast cancer. If there's anything good to say it's that detection and treatments have come a long way (and hopefully will even more by the time you're 50).
My mom tested negative BRCA (which I believe means I'm also negative). I had never even heard of BRCA until she was diagnosed though, so I also think it's a good thing Angelina raised awareness about it. Good for you for getting the test.wow -- how timely. My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer one week ago.. She's 52, I'm 27 and I haven't been able to process it yet. The only thing I can focus on is how few books there are on how to cope with a parent/spouse having cancer.. Thank you for sharing this and good for you for getting tester. Better late than never.
ReplyDeleteI was tested earlier this year after my mother's test came back positive. Mine did, too. Interestingly we don't have a family history of it. It was nice to have Angelina share her story because it makes it easier to discuss with others. I turned 31 about a week ago and I dont know what I'll do with the info. I mean, I am already exceeding the life expectancy of my sister who quite randomly was diagnosed with gastric cancer and died a few weeks after her 30th birthday.

I never comment on your blog but i'm a reader from the netherlands and just wanted to let you know that waiting sucks! So nothing i'm going to say will make that better but i just wanted to let you know that i've read your blog and think about you. All the best, hope the results will come soon!
ReplyDelete Good for you for taking this huge step, it really is so brave. Sometimes it's so much easier with our heads in the sand, and so scary to think of actually possessing knowledge that might force us to actually be faced with decisions rather than leaving it in the hands of fate and just cringing. I'm super impressed and my thoughts are with you as you wait. You're absolutely right, the waiting place is one of the worst places to be. Keeping my fingers crossed that it pays off with good news for you!
ReplyDeleteThere was just a freakonomics podcast discussing just this topic. Wanted to pass it along. http://freakonomics.com/2013/06/20/do-you-really-want-to-know-your-future-a-new-freakonomics-radio-podcast/
I do think you are brave! Hoping the best for your results.i wonder if it gets sent to myriad in salt lake city. I live right by it and my sister actually just started working there. It seems like a great place. Hopefully you don't have the gene. I just read an article about this in a magazine like glamour or cosmopolitan where an 18 year old tested positive so she opted to get a double mastectomy. Seems to be a hot issue now understandably.

Once upon a time, there was a fairytale-themed crib bedding, which featured a colorful design with a castle, cottage and woodland creatures embroidered and appliquéd right onto the quilt. It was super soft, because it was made of 100% cotton, and it had a pink skirt with flowers embroidered onto it. Pick up a set, and sleep happily ever after. The end.

Luxurious warmth!!!! WOW! I could just leave it at that but I will elaborate. I first bought the SmartWool NTS 250 bottoms, which I love, so when I saw this shirt on sale I couldn't resist. Although both the top and bottoms are NTS 250 the top is much thicker and sooooo soft. I like staying warm outdoors and this shirt has kept me just that!

A well-made, Merino wool baselayer that has gotten me through the insane cold of January 2014. It's a bit short in the torso for this 6'2" guy.

NEW YORK — Until last year, Café Grumpy in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, was mostly known as a destination for the serious coffee drinker, the type of place where each modestly sized cup is individually brewed and goes for $4 a pop.
Now, thanks to "Girls," the polarizing HBO series in which Lena Dunham stars as Hannah Horvath, a self-involved writer and reluctant Café Grumpy barista, and Alex Karpovsky as Ray, her angsty, thirtysomething boss, the shop has achieved a measure of fame that extends well beyond New York's coffee connoisseurs.
Like Tom's Restaurant, the Upper West Side diner whose exterior stood in for Monk's Cafe on "Seinfeld," or Magnolia Bakery, where Carrie and Miranda feasted on cupcakes on "Sex and the City," Café Grumpy has turned into a pilgrimage site for those who identify with the show's confused characters.
PHOTOS: Real places, fake characters: TV's bars and eateries
The coffee shop took on a more prominent role in recently concluded Season 2, particularly in an episode where Hannah skips out on a shift for a tryst with a handsome, older patron played by Patrick Wilson.
But unlike "Sex and the City" enthusiasts, who can tour that show's most celebrated locations via bus, "Girls" fans have to schlep out to the industrial hinterlands of Brooklyn to pose for Instagram self-portraits in front of the distinctive Grumpy logo (a crabby-looking coffee bean).
Meanwhile, the cafe's location down the block from Broadway Stages, the studio that houses shows such as "The Good Wife" and "Smash," has made it a favorite watering hole for New York's production community and a go-to location for the increasing number of series that film in the neighborhood, including the popular CBS crime drama "Blue Bloods."
On a recent afternoon, Lizinke Kruger, an 18-year-old tourist and "Girls" fan from Cape Town, South Africa, had braved the miserable, rainy weather and the arduous trip to Greenpoint via the much-maligned G train, all to catch a glimpse of the fictional Hannah's workplace.
"It's an epic show. There's a sense of reality in it. It's relatable in a lot of ways," Kruger said.
When owner Caroline Bell first opened Café Grumpy in 2005, she had no inkling it would become a pop-culture landmark. Her goal was simply "to create a place where people could get a good quality cup of coffee."
Business was slow at first — there isn't much foot traffic on this quiet side street, a solid 10-minute walk from the subway — but Broadway Stage provided a steady stream of caffeine-dependent customers over the years.
PHOTOS: Scenes from 'Girls' season 2
Bell opened a second Café Grumpy in Chelsea in 2006, and it quickly earned a following among Manhattan coffee snobs for its constantly rotating menu of single-origin brews.
Now there are four locations in the city.
The original Greenpoint cafe has grown in tandem with the rapidly gentrifying neighborhood, where production has surged in recent years.
With its unusual mix of "old" and "new" Brooklyn, plus direct views of the midtown skyline, the area is like catnip for location managers.
"Just the dichotomy of stuff you can do is really exciting," says Collin Smith, location manager for "Blue Bloods" and a frequent Café Grumpy patron. (The coffee shop has been used at least three times on the series.)
In the last three months of 2012 alone, some 33 television projects were filmed in Community Board 1, an area that includes Greenpoint and Williamsburg.
That's nearly double the total from the same period in 2011.
"For 'Girls,' it began as just another rental, which are part of doing business in this neighborhood," Bell says. "But the fact it became another character onthe show was a cool thing."

Looking for Floor-standing Speakers?
Start shoppingWhy Bi-wiring?
"There is no physical reason why bi-wiring should improve a speaker's sound."
I've heard this sentiment repeated over the years by some very reputable sources. So why do many respected manufacturers continue to build speakers with two separate sets of input terminals explicitly for that purpose (that is, connecting a loudspeaker to an amp or receiver using two pairs of wire rather than the usual one)? Bi-wiring doesn't increase the power going to the speakers - it just doubles the number of cables connected to them. So what's the point?
According to many audiophiles and speaker companies, the answer's simple: it's the sound.
I decided to see (or rather hear) for myself if there was anything to this bi-wiring. Starting with a pair of four-way floor-standing towers I have at home, I disconnected the metal jumpers that joined the two sets of positive and negative terminals on the back of each speaker. Then I hooked up my two matching pairs of speaker wires between the speakers and my receiver. Once connected, I fired up the system to hear the results.
I was impressed.
Bass definition had clearly ratcheted up a couple of notches. Individual bass notes were much easier to distinguish, and they seemed to have taken on a fuller and rounder tone. High frequencies also improved greatly. The somewhat harsh brightness that I had always attributed to my speaker's metal dome tweeters disappeared - replaced by a smoothness and warmth I hadn't thought them capable of.
I performed the same experiment on a pair of high-quality two-way bookshelf speakers that I own. The results were similar although a bit more subtle.
The bottom line - even though I can't explain exactly why, bi-wiring worked surprisingly well in my system. If you have speakers that are compatible with a bi-wired connection, I would highly recommend that you give it a try. Happy listening.

STOCKTON – Two men added something to their food order not on the menu at a restaurant in the 6200 block of Pacific Avenue Sunday evening – cash from the register.
After the men ordered food at 6:50 p.m., according to police, one of them brandished a pistol and demanded the clerk had over the money, which they took before fleeing on foot.
The suspects were described as a 30-year-old Latino man, 5 feet 10 inches tall with an average build wearing a black baseball cap, jacket and pants, according to police. His accomplice was believed to be a 50-year-old Latino man, 5 feet 7 inches and 140 pounds wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and pants.

Comments On Jun 03, 2014:This is a awesome clutch basket. It made the clutch pull a little easier and controlled the engagement better. I would definitely buy one again

Comments On Dec 14, 2013:Had to buy a new clutch basket because I ride my 450 like a 2 stroke (bad habit to break) and notched out the stock basket. I put 40 hours on the Hinson basket and it still looked like new. Great product.

Comments On Feb 20, 2013:Workmanship looks great. Going to install tonight, but wanted to correct a previous commenter that said it comes with cushions.
The model I received for my KTM 300 does not come with the cushions (and RM never said it did). It comes with:
* Basket
* A new retainer plate
* Torx head screws for retainer plate
To install, you will need to reuse or order new cushions and have some fresh Loctite red 272. I spoke with the Hinson guys and they were clear that the normal red 271 doesn't cut it as it's not the same high-temp spec, and that the 272 has a limited shelf life of 8-10 months before it starts to loose effectiveness.
I suggested they start including packets of 272 with the basket as it's hard for most of us to source locally.

Comments On Feb 09, 2013:I broke a fiber so had to replace them. The Hinson basket still looks brand new. The OEM basket with 2 years life was totally shredded!! This basket truly is BULLET PROOF. I ride about 2-3 times a month training and racing offroad events so it has seen some abuse.

Comments On Jan 17, 2013:This basket is very smooth and works well. Easy to install. Hardest part is getting the main gear off the old stock basket. A grinder worked for me.

Comments On Nov 13, 2012:Bought this for my 92 CR500. Stock basket was worn badly and caused hard clutch pull and the clutch would not fully disengage causing the engine to die when the bike was in gear and not moving. Installation was fairly easy. Special locktight is required (high strength and high heat stuff) that is not common in hardware or autopart stores, would be nice if a small bottle was included with the kit. Other than that, it worked great, and has held up so far with no issues. I would purchase again for sure.

Comments On Oct 26, 2012:Replaced my groovy stock basket with this one and it has been holding up great. Be ready to remove the stock gear from the original basket and install on this one.
