The Job List Template is great at producing a summary of all the jobs. Is it possible to create pages in wordpress that have the Job List Template but only for a particular category? For instance, I'm currently embedding a Job Manager categories widget on pages (so it lists jobs per country)...... but it would be nice to show the Job List Template specific to a category on each country page.
I hope this makes sense!!

YIELD: Makes 10
For chocolate mousse:
Place chocolate and salt in a large bowl; set aside. Cook egg yolks, sugar, and 1/2 cup cream in a medium saucepan over medium heat, whisking constantly, until thick enough to coat a spoon, about 4 minutes. Pour over chocolate mixture and whisk until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Let cool.
Using a whisk, beat remaining 1/2 cup cream in a bowl until soft peaks form. Fold into cooled chocolate mixture; cover and chill until cold, at least 2 hours.
DO AHEAD: Mousse can be made 2 days ahead. Keep chilled.
For popovers and assembly:
Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly butter 10 cups of a standard 12-cup muffin tin or two 6-cup popover pans. Whisk eggs in a medium bowl to blend. Bring cream, milk, salt, and pepper to a simmer in a medium saucepan; whisking constantly, gradually add to eggs. Whisk in flour, then cheese (no lumps should remain).
Divide batter among prepared muffin cups, fill remaining cups halfway with water, and bake 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°F and bake until popovers are puffed, golden brown, and crusty, 20–25 minutes longer. Turn out onto a wire rack and let cool.
Just before serving, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly coat with nonstick spray. Fill a large bowl with ice water. Bring sugar and 3 tablespoons water to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Boil, brushing down sides with a damp brush and swirling pan occasionally, until mixture turns deep amber. Set the bottom of saucepan in ice water to stop the cooking and firm caramel slightly (this will make it easier to work with when dipping popovers).
Working quickly and with 1 popover at a time, dip bottoms into caramel and set, caramel side down, on prepared baking sheet; let cool. (If caramel becomes too hard while dipping, reheat over medium-low heat to a workable consistency.)
Once caramel has set, mix mousse with a rubber spatula to loosen. Transfer to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/4" pastry tip. Working 1 at a time, poke holes in tops of popovers with pastry tip and fill popovers with mousse.

Virgilio Noè
Virgilio Cardinal Noè (30 March 1922 – 24 July 2011) was an Italian Roman Catholic prelate.
Born in 1922 in Zelata di Bereguardo, Lombardy, Noè studied at the Seminary of Pavia. He was sent to Rome in 1948 by Bishop Carlo Allorio of Pavia to the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome, where he earned a doctorate in ecclesiastical history in 1952, and was ordained on 1 October 1944.[citation needed]
He served as Undersecretary of the Sacred Congregation for Divine Worship from 1969–75. In 1970, he was appointed the first Master of Pontifical Liturgical Celebrations by Pope Paul VI. He was appointed Undersecretary for the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments in 1975, holding this post for two years. On 30 January 1982 he was appointed Secretary of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments and that same day was appointed Titular Archbishop of Voncaria. He held his position at the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments until 1989.

Virgilio Noè

|Spoken style

Noè was created Cardinal-Deacon of S. Giovanni Bosco in Via Tuscolana in the consistory of 28 June 1991 by Pope John Paul II. Three days later, he was made Archpriest of the Vatican Basilica, Vicar-General of His Holiness for Vatican City State, and President of the Fabric of St. Peter, offices he would hold until April 2002.[1]
Cardinal Noè, like nearly all who served as Cardinal-Deacons for ten years, took the option of being elevated to the level of Cardinal-Priest with the titular church of Regina Apostolorum as of 26 February 2002. He attracted attention when he claimed that Pope Paul VI had referred to priests who celebrated the Mass badly as introducing the "smoke of Satan" into the Catholic Church.[2]
On 24 July 2011, Cardinal Noè died in Rome at the age of 89.[3]

When we create a Player (MMAPI), we MUST associate it with a media (be it streaming/media file etc eg.wav,mid etc files) ? We are not allowed to create an "independent"/"blank" player which is free from any media ?
From the Manager API, I can only see 3 createPlayer methods, all of which "force" us to create the player WITH a media file.
static Player createPlayer(DataSource source) Create a Player for a DataSource. static Player createPlayer(InputStream stream, String type) Create a Player to play back media from an InputStream. static Player createPlayer(String locator) Create a Player from an input locator.
If we are can create a "blank" player instance, then we can tied it to different media at different times "dynamically" without instantiating new players. As far as I know, the object instantiation process might be a little CPU intensive.
Currently, if I just want to play a different file, I had to :
1) close it by calling close()
2) assign my player reference var to a new player by calling createPlayer again (at the same time this lets the old one elegible for garbage collection). This means instantiate.
3) call realise(), prefetch() again.
I think going through this whole process just to change media is a little "overkill". Don't you think so ?
Can't we have an intermediate state (like one of these existing intermediate states : UNREALIZED, REALIZED, PREFETCHED etc.) that allows us to switch media ? Kinda equivalent to changing CDs of a physical CD player.
We don't throw away a CD player when we wish to listen to another CD, do we ?

Well, you are using a factory method not a constructor to get the new player instances, right? That indicates that the implement is probably re-using the player object in a way it sees efficient.

Hi guys, I see you're talking about class Player. I've got a problem and you might be able to help me.
I've developed an application which plays audio and video via HTTP and RTP, and everything works except from RTP video, because when I call the method player.realize() it blocks forever (without explanation).
Could you please tell me why is that? What's happening? I've no idea.
Thanks a lot

LG has officially unveiled the G Flex 2 and we're here at at CES 2015 to bring you all of the details. The G Flex 2 carries over the same curved display/body design from its predecessor, but has significant improvements in the hardware department. Let's go ahead and take a closer look in our hands-on and overview video…
LG G3 helped company's Q3 sales climb 39%, with profits more than doubled
LG's twin-track smartphone strategy – offering both premium G-series models and cheaper L-series devices – appears to be working, with the company announcing Q3 smartphone sales up by 39% to 16.8M and operating profits more than doubled to 461B won ($440M). The results beat analyst expectations, and LG said that it was bullish about future prospects.
Building on its momentum and two consecutive profitable quarters, LG expects to strengthen its positioning in the smartphone market with its G Series and L Series models despite the landscape becoming more competitive
The G3 handset in particular has helped the company gain ground against its much larger Korean rival Samsung. Samsung is due to announce its own Q3 results tomorrow, but has already issued a profit warning on the basis of low average selling prices of its phones … Read more
LG enters the ARM chip-making game with its Octa-core NUCLUN
LG just dropped an TSMC-built octo-core NUCLUN bomb on us this evening. The smartphone and electronics manufacturer announced its own, long rumored ARM processor which will go into its phones later this year.
NUCLUN (pronounced NOO-klun) was designed using ARM big.LITTLE™ technology for efficient multi-tasking capabilities. The AP employs four 1.5GHz cores (ARM Cortex-A15) for high performance and four 1.2GHz cores (ARM Cortex-A7) for less intensive processing. The number of performing cores can be adjusted based on the requirements of the task for maximum processing power or maximum energy savings. NUCLUN is designed to support the next generation of 4G networks, LTE-A Cat.6, for maximum download speeds of up to 225Mbps while retaining backward compatibility with current LTE networks.
"NUCLUN opens up a new chapter in LG's history of innovation in the mobile industry," said Dr. Jong-seok Park, president and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. "With this in-house solution, we will be able to achieve better vertical integration and further diversity our product strategy against stronger competition. NUCLUN will give us greater flexibility in our mobile strategy going forward."
The processor will debut in a Korean model phone and along with its 8 cores will carry LTE cat 6 capabilities on die. The LG Liger which leaked today is also expected to have the NUCLUN processor, if indeed these aren't actually the same phone.

LG G Watch R: Hands-on and first impressions (Video)
LG recently unveiled its latest smartwatch, the G Watch R. This is the first Android Wear device with a full circle display, because as some of you may know, the Moto 360 has a "flat tire" due to the sensors located at the bottom side of the face. The good news is, the G Watch R is just as premium as the Moto 360, and in my opinion, possibly better…

The Korea Times is reporting that LG is planning to show off a successor to its G Watch wearable at IFA next month.

LG is reportedly planning to market the device as a competitor to Apple's supposed, still unannounced iWatch.
LG G3 announcement: Specifications, features, and release date
LG has finally unveiled the upcoming G3. It's possible that this will be the most leaked smartphone of 2014, but at least all of the specifications and features are official now. This device is definitely a big step up from the G2 and will be a strong contender against the Samsung Galaxy S5 and HTC One M8. So what can you expect from the LG G3? Take a look at the full overview below.

In Reply to: competitions
: I need some clarification. I have been reading through this site and I am boggled. I am a new JRT owner and extremely interested in entering my dogs in competition. I had spoken with a JRTCA rep on the phone and was told that they can't be entered into competition unless they were JRTCA registered and over 1 year of age, however, I see that there are competitions for 4-6mo and 6-12mo puppies. How do you go about entering them into competitions at that age since they can't be registered until 1 yr of age??

Varney the Vampire's Feast of Blood
The fictional vampire may have made his debut at the Algonquin Round Table, but he flourished alongside the cave-dwelling cannibals and homicidal maniacs who introduced the British working class to the magic of reading. The 1845-1847 penny dreadful Varney the Vampire was penned by none other than James Malcolm Rymer, who created the character Sweeney Todd. Victorian Gothic writes:
… Read the rest
James Malcolm Rymer's Varney the Vampire has been described as the worst book of the 19th century. Introduced in 1845, the completed serial consists of over 600,000 words of tedious dialog, aimlessly meandering storylines, maddening repetition, and enough kernels of genius to consistently inspire horror fiction into the present day. Bram Stoker, Anne Rice, Stephen King, Russell T. Davies and Freidrich Wilhelm Murnau are just some of the writers and filmmakers who have been indebted to concepts originated in the pages of Varney, making it easily the most influential vampire story that nobody reads.

And this is a text that people use to teach their children morality? Via Cracked, eight bible stories that compete with the worst horror novels and slasher movies in terms of grotesque, over-the-top violence, including the impaling of Haman on a 75-foot spike, the serving of John the Baptist's head on a platter at a banquet, Herod being eaten alive by worms as Godly punishment, a lake of blood filled by crushing masses of people inside a giant wine press, and the dismembering of a prostitute:

Woman Dies Of Heart Attack After Awakening At Own Funeral
When someone miraculously returns to life at their own funeral, but then dies of shock at what's taking place, is it perhaps best to continue on with the service as if nothing happened? The Daily Mail reports:
A woman died from a heart attack caused by shock after waking up to discover she had been declared dead – and was being prepared for burial. As mourning relatives filed past her open coffin she suddenly woke up and started screaming as she realized where she was.
Fagilyu Mukhametzyanov, 49, of Kazan, Russia, had been wrongly declared deceased [the first time] by doctors. Her eyes fluttered and [she was] immediately rushed back to the hospital but she only lived for another 12 minutes in intensive care before she died again, this time for good.
Young Children In South Africa Eaten By Giant Rats
A chilling urban legend from New York City comes terribly true on the opposite side of the globe, as three-foot rats run amok, feasting on human babies. The Daily Mail writes:

Giant rats as big as cats have killed and eaten two babies in separate attacks in South Africa's squalid townships this week.
Lunathi Dwadwa, three, was killed as she slept in her parent's shack outside Cape Town and another girl was killed in Soweto township near Johannesburg the same day. Bukiswa Dwadwa, 27, said: 'I can't forget how ugly my child looked after her eyes were ripped out. 'She was eaten from her eyebrows to her cheeks, her other eye was hanging by a piece of flesh.'
Residents of South Africa's impoverished townships say the giant rats grow up to three-foot long, including their tails, and have front teeth over an inch long. The suspects in the baby attacks are believed to be African Giant Pouched Rats, the biggest in the world.

A Brief History of Zombies
We've all seen at least one movie about flesh-eating zombies taking over (my personal favorite is Resident Evil), but where do zombies come from and why do they love eating brains so much? The word zombie comes from Haitian and New Orleans voodoo origins. Although its meaning has changed slightly over the years, it refers to a human corpse mysteriously reanimated to serve the undead.
Lovecraft's 'The Shunned House' Is For Sale
Interested in investing in demonic real estate? The home was built in 1763 by Stephen Harris, a wealthy merchant. Subsequently his children died and his wife descended into madness — in real life, not the Lovecraft story. Additionally, there likely are colonial-era corpses buried in the backyard. The Lovecraftian notes ominously:

The home at 135 Benefit Street in Providence, Rhode Island, that's featured in H.P. Lovecraft's story "The Shunned House" is for sale. And if you're looking for "a particular house on the eastern side of the street; a dingy, antiquated structure perched on the abruptly rising side-hill, with a great unkempt yard dating from a time when the region was partly open country" and you've got $925,000, it could be yours.
The house had a colorful history even before Lovecraft wrote about it, none of which is mentioned in the real estate listing however. Aside from a giant monster buried in the basement (which can, admittedly, be killed with acid), it has four bedrooms, a koi pond and a library.

Private sector Develop outreach strategies. There are a number of freight data are often considered proprietary strategies that can be employed to more fully engage and therefore confidential. This complicates the the private sector freight community in this process. data collection activities and the completeness Before sharing data with an MPO, most private sector of the regional freight profile. freight stakeholders want to see the potential benefits of providing data and participating in the process. Developing outreach strategies that describe the potential benefits of participation can help, such as providing missing data necessary to promote an improvement project. Ensuring confidentiality of data is another key factor. The Outreach and Partnerships section in this module describes some of the more successful strategies. Ongoing commitment. Data collection activities Dedicate yourself to data collection. MPOs must should be undertaken as an ongoing program realize that data collection is an ongoing, dynamic to develop current and trend descriptions of the process. MPOs should consider building time and region's freight system. It is important that initial budget for collecting and reviewing freight data into data collection activities not be so elaborate and their UPWPs. In an environment that has limited costly that they are seen as one time events. data collection dollars, it is critical that staff work to include freight considerations or enhancements to existing programs. For example, annual count pro- grams can be revised or modified to include key inter- modal connectors and truck corridors. Training and Education Overview In recent years, freight training and education have become significant focus areas for MPOs and state DOTs as staff continues to expand and develop freight transportation pro- grams. Training opportunities, while still limited, have expanded to meet these demands. FHWA has taken the lead for much of the training and education activities through its FPD program. Key components of this program include a peer exchange program and the Talk- ing Freight seminar series. In addition, the NHI has partnered with FHWA to facilitate the development of specific courses in the areas of transportation planning and freight model- ing. At a more localized level, specific vendors provide training for their tools and products. For example, travel demand model vendors provide training seminars and model conversion services to assist MPOs and state DOTs use their models. In addition to these formalized training and education programs, outreach activities often are used by MPOs and state DOTs to educate system users and impacted communities of the positive benefits of efficient freight transportation. Freight training and education efforts typically focus on the following areas: � Promote need for efficient freight transportation. Freight is an integral part of an inte- grated, multimodal transportation system; it must be incorporated to achieve a truly balanced system.
OCR for page 67
3-56 Guidebook for Freight Policy, Planning, and Programming in Small- and Medium-Sized Metropolitan Areas � Identify freight as relevant component of the transportation system program. While MPOs typically have limited control over non-highway modes of freight transportation, it is critical that local transportation programs address all established aspects of freight transportation, because each mode/operation impacts the community. � Define opportunities for integrating freight into existing programs. Effective integration of freight operations into an established program will enhance a region's ability to predict and manage congestion, safety, and key bottlenecks. � Provide specific instruction on individual analysis tools. There are many tools available to staff, including economic impact, travel demand, and air quality; these tools typically are pro- vided with instruction and training. � Define and provide wide variety of freight data and research. Many MPOs and state DOTs have undertaken freight initiatives that can be used as best practices; in addition, organizations like NCHRP, TRB, and AASHTO have and continue to develop resources to assist MPOs. � Build political and technical support for freight program development. Outreach is a criti- cal component in the education process; impacted citizens and leaders must understand the importance of freight transportation. Basic versus Advanced Approach The distinction between basic and advanced approaches to freight training and education is driven by the type of activities that an MPO is undertaking, as well as the resources available. For an MPO with limited freight background, the training and education needed to undertake the development of freight policies and a regional freight profile may consist of FHWA's Talking Freight seminar series and peer-to-peer exchange program, combined with outreach to a lim- ited number of private partners. For MPOs that have developed a basic description of their freight system and are engaging in more advanced analytical and modeling techniques, the train- ing and education activities may consist of attendance at formal training courses or bringing technical experts in-house to train staff. Key Activities Training and education activities should focus on the defined needs of an MPO. The exercises defined in Module 2 provide staff members with a comprehensive analysis of what they do and do not know about freight transportation. This section defines the types of training and educa- tion activities that can be undertaken to meet basic and advanced needs. It is important to acknowledge that specific topics should be based on intended program direction. The types of activities will fall into the following categories: � Staff Initiative. Many staff members have developed expertise in freight through their own actions, such as regular review of industry periodicals and other literature available on specific modes, supply chain management, and trade. � Peer Exchange. Learning from the experiences of counterparts around the country is a sim- ple yet invaluable mechanism. In fact, FHWA's freight peer-to-peer program was developed to facilitate this kind of activity. � Private Industry Outreach. One of the best ways to learn about freight is to meet with repre- sentatives from industry. They will provide real-life descriptions of business operations, key decision factors, and transportation needs. � Training Courses. Training courses provide specific instruction on a particular subject. This type of educational activity is most useful for a staff that is undertaking a specific advanced freight transportation initiative.

3-58 Guidebook for Freight Policy, Planning, and Programming in Small- and Medium-Sized Metropolitan Areas FHWA's FPD Program In response to customer needs, the FHWA's Office of Operations launched the FPD program. This initiative assists state DOTs and MPOs in developing the skills and knowledge needed to meet the challenge of growing freight flows on the nation's transportation system. The FPD program consists of four key elements: training, education, technical assistance, and a resource library. � Training. The FPD program provides training, including short courses and seminars, on a broad range of freight topics. Two FPD courses were offered through NHI in fiscal year (FY) 2005: Integrating Freight in the Transportation Planning Process and Uses of Multimodal Freight Forecasting in Transportation Planning. � Education. The FPD program works with the academic community to promote needed changes in transportation planning and logistics degree programs critical to ensuring the future availability of appropriately trained freight professionals. Many university-based freight and related degree programs are identified on the new FPD web site at http://ops.fhwa.dot.gov/freight/FPD/index.asp. � Technical Assistance. The FPD program provides assistance to states and MPOs engaged in transportation and freight planning. The ongoing Talking Freight sem- inar series offers a no-cost way for freight transportation professionals to broaden their knowledge and develop new skills. Seminars are held monthly and are open to all interested parties through http://ops.fhwa.dot.gov/freight/fpd/talking_ freight.htm. The Freight Planning LISTSERV, located at www.fhwa. dot.gov/freightplanning, also provides a forum for peer information exchange. � Resource Library. The FPD program offers a web-based one-stop shop for current information and state-of-the art practices pertaining to freight. The resource library is located on the FPD web site. Source: http://www.ops.fhwa.dot.gov/aboutus/one_ pagers/fpd.pdf. Planning courses). In addition, training should be identified for specific tools and models that staff considers critical for the support of the freight program development. Step 3. Develop formal training program. Staff should define an annual training program that incorporates the needs of the MPO, the availability of training courses, and the availability of funding to support staff attendance. This program should appear in the MPO's UPWP. Step 4. Implement training program. The implementation of the training program should correspond to the current level of expertise and the planned freight activities. For example, a peer-to-peer exchange could be scheduled to provide access to expertise in a specific area or, if the MPO is scheduled to update its travel demand model, staff should work with FHWA and NHI to schedule the current freight modeling course.3 The program should be reviewed and updated annually to provide an ongoing opportunity for staff members to develop and enhance their freight expertise. 3FHWA-NHI-139002, Uses of Multimodal Freight Forecasting in Transportation Planning. http://www.nhi.fhwa.dot.gov/ training/course_detail.aspx?num=FHWA-NHI-139002&cat=&key=&num=139002&loc=sta=%25&tit=typ=&lev=&ava= &str=&end=&drl=.

Why is The Messengers rated PG-13?
Official MPAA Rating: The Messengers is rated PG-13 for for mature thematic material, disturbing violence and terror
The film opens with the death of a woman and two children, one of who whimpers in a dark, cupboard before being dragged out by an unseen being. Abandoned farm implements and even tractors take on an ominous aura as a new family moves into the empty farmhouse. There are plenty of jump scenes caused by creaky floors, ill-omened forays into dark buildings and foreboding music. Doors, furniture and other household objects move on their own. The gory ghosts of the deceased family members scurry around the house and try to pull living characters into the cellar. Outside of the house, a flock of crows repeatedly attack the humans while inside a crazed figure attempts to kill others with a pitchfork. After a fierce struggle a man drowns in sewage-like liquid. The script also includes some infrequent vulgarities, a revelation about a drunk driving accident and brief sexual comments made by a married couple.

Imagine that...90 days until college football season starts.
Gary Majewski is just terrible. He should have never been brought up for the minors. He has no business being here. Hopefully he goes down when Homer comes up.
There was ZERO and I mean ZERO chance of Weathers getting a 6 out save. NONE.
Marcus McBeth is never going to pitch. Narron REFUSES to use him.
Gotta love this bullpen. They make it so exciting don't they. Can they keep a lead, or will they blow it? Should have kept Matt in.
I think Krivsky is actually doing a decent job of collecting some interesting arms down their. McBeth, Burton, and Salmon are all guys I would have had in there over the two guys he ran out there the last two nights.
And to bring Weathers in and expcet him to get 6 outs is absolutely insane.
There just is no more justification to keep on Narron. He needs to go IMMEDIATELY. It's a joke to continue to allow him to run the ballclub.
Sorry, I wish I could agree about Krivsky, but I just can't. He's been working for a solid year to improve the bullpen, and it has gotten worse. We spent Lopez and Kearns for Majewski and Bray; we gave away Justin Germano (now 4-0 for the Padres) for Rheal Cormier; we got six games out Everyday Eddie; he signed Stanton [like Cormier] for two years; he thought Coutlangus was going to help; he sticks with Narron. That is a record of total incompetence, and he should, IMHO, be fired immediately. Any pretension that Castellini has had about being a winner is undermined by sticking with this GM and Narron.
And it's 9-9 now.
Santos warming up? WHY??
We want McBeth!
Most Vottomatic Player
It's hard to know who's worse, Narron or Krivsky. Actually I'm a little sympathetic to Narron. Look at the options K has given him--how is he supposed to use that group in the best possible way? What do you do when your options are Santos, Stanton, Coutlangus, Majewski (all K products.)
"The players make the manager, it's never the other way." - Sparky Anderson
How much responsibility does Dick Pole bear for determining which relievers to go with?
I think it's time to cut our losses with Gary Majewski. I seriously wonder if he was ever really "injured" -- or if that was just WK trying to save face for trading for a bad pitcher.

Sturdy and easy to assemble
The Piano Guy from Columbia SC – Verified Buyer
I was able to assemble this myself with a power screwdriver. Most of the assembly is just a matter of fitting pieces together; once you get the hang of the process, it's easy.I use this to sort my library of choral music, which was cluttering my closet. Now it's neat and takes up less space.[...]

So I've bought a 64gb SDXC card and filled it full of music. Tried it in the phone, and it was stuck on "Checking for errors". I then plugged it back into my computer, deleted the partition and plugged it straight back into the phone. No dice, same problem.
This is on stock 2.2.1, I will try on Aurora ICS and report back. So far it does not look good.

Hey there, reader, and thanks for checking out our latest edition of Best Battles in New Comics. As the segment's title clearly implies, this is the place to be if you want to witness some of the coolest and most exciting action scenes that went down in the latest round of new comics. We've reviewed a whole bunch of brawls that were in the new issues and we hope you'll enjoy the following three every bit as much as we did. If your favorite one isn't here, go ahead and praise it in the comments section and show the world why it was worthy of your love. That's way more productive than just complaining about its absence, yeah?
Our first highlight is from Mark Waid (writer), Javier Rodriguez (artist), and Alvaro Lopez's (inker) latest issue of DAREDEVIL. In this chapter, Matt Murdock, a.k.a. Daredevil, heads into Wakanda because the high-tech country has kidnapped three nuns from the United States and one just happens to be Matt's mother. Why would such an advanced society capture three nuns, you ask? Great question, but if you want to know the story arc's details, you should buy the issue because we're here to talk about the action! Now, where were we? Oh, right! So, Daredevil uses S.H.I.E.L.D. as a taxi service to get to the foreign nation and it's not long before guards are able to locate the Man Without Fear. We all know Daredevil has crazy good agility and reflexes, but the spears being thrown at him aren't merely just point sticks -- they loop back and electrocute the hero from Hell's Kitchen. DD crashes into the water, but obviously, the fight has only just begun.
Matt Murdock may not be the top hand-to-hand combatant on 616 Earth, but he's way up there and proves it on a steady basis. In this case, he has no issue showing off his technique as he's able to take on a group of warriors and begins to drop them with precise hits. A baton to the chin, a chop to the throat, a kick to the jaw... when it comes to taking down opponents in close quarters combat, Daredevil always has a whole lot of options at his disposal. Unfortunately, they were expecting Daredevil and brought a sonic weapon with them. What a bunch of cheaters.
The Wakandans drag the seemingly defeated masked hero to their ruler: T'Challa's sister, Shuri. Almost immediately, Shuri realizes her forces have given Daredevil exactly what he wanted by bringing him there. Murdock was playing possum and assumed he'd be brought to where the kidnapped nuns are being held. It certainly beats roaming around the county, right? Daredevil effortlessly dispatches the two guards standing next to him and then comes face to face with the main event: Shuri.
Does the agile hero have what it takes to beat Shuri in a scuffle? And even if he does, how will that help him rescue the nuns?! Is he just going to say "thanks for the fight" and then sprint and leap his way out of the advanced country? It's worth adding that the chapter's also an Original Sin and the story adds a compelling twist to Mudock's relationship with his mother.
Our second highlight is from W. Haden Blackman and Michael Del Mundo's latest issue of ELEKTRA. In this chapter, Elektra finally locates the infamous assassin Cape Crow and they both go on the offensive. The villain was able to take on Bullseye, Taskmaster, Sabretooth, and Scalphunter all by himself, so yeah, this isn't going to be a cakewalk for Elektra.
If Cape Crow could defeat that deadly group of mercenaries all by his lonesome, you can bet Elektra's going to take some major hits. Sure, she's nimble and oh-so-lethal, but Cape Crow eventually drops her and reveals his secret weapon to her: he's a precog. He can see his target's next move a mere millisecond before they throw it. He may be feared by many, but Cape Crow has clearly never read "Being a Villain for Dummies." If he did, he'd know to never reveal his advantage because it almost always leads to a villain's defeat. In this case, Elektra realizes she needs to clear her head and act on instinct. Suddenly it's anyone's game.
Spectacular artwork, isn't it? Del Mundo (and co-colorist Marco D'Alfonso) continue to drop our jaws with every issue in this series. As you can see, the fight is overflowing with intensity and absolutely gorgeous character work. Every page in this book honestly has something to admire and there's so much brilliant artwork that we're leaving out of this highlight (you need an extra incentive to buy it, right?). Anyway, just because Elektra knows to clear her mind and act on instinct doesn't mean the fight is automatically won. She still has a savage fight on her hands and the two continue to trade ferocious strikes.
Does Elektra find an opening and deliver a killing blow or does the writer have another ending in store for us? And was Bloody Lips able to fully recover after that harsh crash or is he bleeding out as Elektra fights for her life? ELEKTRA #5 is full of magnificent looking action, so if this highlight looks appealing to you, we really recommend picking it up.
Last but not least, we thoroughly enjoyed the rematch between Ororo Munroe, a.k.a. Storm, and Callisto in STORM #2. The two had a knife fight way back in THE UNCANNY X-MEN #170, and now, Greg Pak (writer), Victor Ibanez (artist), and Ruth Redmond (colorist) are happily presenting us with round two of Storm vs. Callisto! But we should probably give you a little bit of context first, yeah? Basically, Storm noticed a mission person poster for a girl named Angie and she felt obligated to help. After getting some assistance from Beast, Storm discovered that Angie's underground and with other missing teens. Seeing as she has such a rocky history with Callisto, it's understandable these two decide to fight instead of, you know, talking about the situation when they bump into one another.
In their previous fight, Storm wasn't allowed to use her powers and she won because of Callisto's arrogance. The former leader of the Morlock's was toying with Storm and chatting away, so it caught her off-guard when Storm used her cape to reel the character in and deliver a vicious stab with a knife. Oddly enough, it's now Storm who's feeling cocky even though the location means she can't really unleash. If she lets loose, it could disrupt power in the subway system and, as you more than likely know, a whole lot of New Yorkers use that method of transportation.
Sure, Callisto's staff absorbs lightning, but that hardly protects her from the Mistress of the Elements. Even if her lightning won't work, she's still a skilled fighter and has a whole plethora of other abilities she could dish out. If she really wanted to, she could sucking the air from Callisto's lungs or, well, anything else you can think of with her amazing powers! But Storm seems to be embracing the scuffle and wants answers. What goes around comes around, though. Callisto lost their first fight because she talked too much and now Storm is making the very same mistake and it's going to cost her.
Don't worry, Storm fans, because the blow to the back of her head doesn't knock her out. She's able to recover and pursues Callisto, but what does she find? Is Callisto up to something diabolical or is there something else going on? Even if you have no interest in Storm, you should really give this series a shot. Pak's writing is a delight and Storm's dynamic with Wolverine is legitimately amusing..
