I have Quilt Pro and use it a lot...but I'm wanting to get QE 7 and was wondering what the differences are and which one is the better of the two? Does anyone have both and willing to give me any input?
What did you decide to do? I am trying to decide whether to upgrade to Quilt Pro 6, or buy Electric Quilt 7.
I have EQ7 and love it. Lots of possibilities to design from scratch or use built in blocks as a starting point. Love how fast it makes things like calculating yardage, and the built in video tutorials are fantastic. Each month there are free fabric libraries from the company to upgrade what is there or you can scan your own fabrics in, or buy Stash, which is each season's newest offerings to keep the fabrics current if you need or wish to.
I do like the drawing features and find them easy to use. And its easy to search for information or blocks within the sytem. I would be totally lost with out my software!
I don't have Quilt Pro though so I cannot compare.

Joe Culin: Protecting the Hemlock
Joe Culin, Ph.D.
Professor and CAFLS Associate Dean for Research
Entomology, Soils & Plant Sciences
The work that we're doing here in my lab is to look at rearing some predacious beetles to release in the hemlock forests in the southern Appalachians to control the hemlock wooly adelgid. It's an invasive pest that was accidentally introduced, they think, around Richmond, VA in the early 50s and first showed up around Burl's Ford, the Whitewater falls area, fish hatchery area in about 2001 here.
Basically, the way they kill a hemlock tree is by defoliating it. In the northern end of the range, when we first started looking at this problem, when it showed up here in the early 2001 – 2002 range, the Forest Service folks were saying it was taking somewhere in the neighborhood of about 8 – 10 years to kill hemlock trees. In the southern end of the range, down here, it's taking as little as 4. So they can kill hemlock trees very quickly.
There are a lot of areas where the hemlocks are essentially gone. We're hoping that in the southeast, we got started about the time the infestation started showing up; and hopefully because of that, we're kind of ahead of the curve from what they've seen up there because the adelgid had been in their forests for 20 – 25 years before they started these mass releases of predators up in say VA, PA and NY.
Here in the southern Appalachians there are some areas, along the Chattooga especially, where we first started making releases where the hemlock trees are in pretty good shape. Hopefully we'll keep some of the hemlocks that we have in Oconee, Pickens County and a little bit in Greenville.

Chiddy Bang
Both leap year and Chiddy Bang share a giddy generosity, the former offering the dubious gift of an extra 24 hours of February, the latter bringing the long-delayed, much anticipated follow-up to The Swelly Express. Much to label execs' dismay, the new album, Breakfast, doesn't include viral Youtube sensation "The Opposite of Adults." Still, it does come with dense, fractally complex wordplay, unexpected indie rock samples and exhilarating swells of pop. Singles "Handclaps and Guitars" and "Ray Charles" may be the most accessible cuts, but see if you can catch the rererence to the highlight of Chiddy Bang's major label ride so far in "Out 2 Space:" a chance to share weed with the Rolling Stones' Keith Richards. -Jennifer Kelly

Bad Boy Shakespeare
Shakespeare often gets all mixed up in the giddy, romantic sludge that wafts from our televisions around Valentine's Day. Of course, he was a romantic, and his sonnets and monologues are some of the most intensely passionate displays of human emotion ever put to page. Yet where there is intense passion, there is sure to be dark and lurid undertones. Producer Adriano Shaplin and Drexel dramatists the Riot Group offer up a radically alternate view of the bard as a violent competitor, bisexual misogynist, sexual deviant, literary pirate, sociopath and lapdog for Elizabethan fascism. They'll cut through the flowery stuff and right to the orgies, the deceit and the plain ol' evil. Abigail Bruley

Robert Glasper Experiment
Houston-born pianist Robert Glasper doesn't like being limited by genres. He played on Kanye West's Late Registration and Q-Tip's The Renaissance. At a gig last year at New York City's Blue Note, Lupe Fiasco and Kanye joined his Experiment quartet onstage. In addition to guest appearances by Lupe and Mos Def, the Experiment's new album, Black Radio, features Erykah Badu and Musiq Soulchild. So, he's also into R&B. The album includes covers of David Bowie's "Letter To Hermoine" and Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit," so Glasper digs glam and grunge, too. Despite this whole post-everything thing, Glasper claims his music has a "jazz spine." Whatever you wanna call it, his music's undeniably smooth. -Elliott Sharp

Love theater but don't think you can afford it? Beginning Feb. 29, the Mt. Airy-based Quintessence Theatre Group gives you an opportunity to determine the price of your ticket when they turn the box office over to the patrons at a special "pay what you can" performance of the classic drama Antigone. Instead of Sophocles' original version, director Alexander Burns has wisely chosen to stage Jean Anouilh's potent adaptation in a new translation by Jeremy Sams. Penned by Anouilh in 1943, during the occupation of France by Nazi Germany, the play shows how civil disobedience isn't only a citizen's right, it's a responsibility. A particularly timely production, the play stars the dynamic Lavita Shaurice, who captured a 2011 Barrymore nomination for her commanding performance in the Wilma Theater's My Wonderful Day. -J.

Over the years, the label Fueled By Ramen has groomed some of pop-punk's most profitable and teen-friendly titans by way of Fall Out Boy, Paramore and Panic! At the Disco. Of course, for every breakout band, several others on the label have dwindled in obscurity. One of those dwindlers is Punchline, an unsurprisingly sentimental Pittsburgh gang who've done their jobs competently for 14 years, even if there's never been too much to actually do. Long off FBR, Punchline received an affirming wallop of affection last December after OG bassist Chris Fafalios threatened to quit if their new EP So Nice to Meet You didn't reach the peak of the iTunes Albums charts. Although the stunt initially appeared disastrous (internal iTunes issues delayed a big midnight release), Punchline loyalists pushed So Nice to No. 1 on Rock Albums and eventually No. 7 overall. Slightly contradicting his ultimatum, Fafalios expressed satisfaction with No. 1 on Rock and pledged to stick with Punchline as a measure of appreciation for their fans. The story's ending isn't ideal, but it's quite the triumph for the underdog anyway. -Reyan Ali

Dr. Heather,
I was on the UCLA tri team, in my 30's. The rule is 220 minus your age, right? Well, I often ran over 200, even then! I'll be 37 this month, and I had begun ramping up training for a tri last month. I STILL go 195+. I will admit that 'push myself' a bit, but what gives with the numbers? Are those simply guidelines, which don't cover ALL people? What can explain this?
P.S. What was your Oly time?

The ACR 2842 Category I GlobalFix PRO 406 GPS Epirb is a must have safety device for anyone boating, cruising or fishing in a large lake or off the coast. The primary job for an EPIRB is to send a distress signal to the SARSAT (Search And Rescue Satellite-Aided Tracking) satellite system. The ACR 2842 Global Fix Pro 406 is a category I automatic release EPIRB. An automatic release EPIRB is perfect for mounting in an open, out-of-the-way place like the top of a hard top. Automatic, or category I EPIRBs, are designed to be activated when the unit is submerged in water. You can also manually activate the 2842 by flipping the main switch while it is inside or outside of the HydroFix housing or being submerged in water when removed from the housing.
The bonus with the Pro 406 is the built in GPS sensor. When the EPRIB is activated and the distress signal sent, your LAT/LON position will transmit with the distress call creating a much smaller search area down to .05NM radius as compared to 2.3NM radius with a conventional EPIRB. The GPS encoded signal will also be picked up by higher level satellites within 15 minutes of sending. Similar units without GPS can take up to one hour, which can be a lifetime of waiting. The Pro 406 can also interface with an External GPS via NMEA 0183 to provide location prior to activation which ensures Lat/Lon transmission immediately.
The built-in bright LED strobe light consumes less energy than a traditional strobe without sacrificing intensity and most importantly, the Pro 406 EPIRB will transmit for a minimum of 48 hours at -20C degrees.

The Minnesota Security Hospital is a dangerous place by its nature, but its narrow hallways, poor sight lines and mixing of the sickest and newest patients makes it more dangerous than it should be.
Lucinda Jesson, the state's human services commissioner, visited the Regional Treatment Center in St. Peter Wednesday to talk with staff and reporters about the importance of securing state money for a $56 million expansion.
"A new building won't solve all of our problems, but it solves some of them," she said.
The politics of whether the hospital will get its entire request -- the recent state House proposal was $15 million short -- are difficult to predict. Rep. Clark Johnson, DFL-North Mankato, called it the state's most important bonding project.
Politics aside, the real-world problems faced by the hospital's 300 or so guards play out here every day. Assaults reached their highest rates ever in 2012 and declined a bit last year, though specific figures were not available.
While it's difficult to say for sure, the renovations might even have prevented the January killing of a patient, the first in 30 years, said Carol Olson, the state's executive director for forensic services.
The project would add two six-bed crisis units and a pair of two-bed admissions units. The suspect in the case, Darnell D. Whitefeather, had recently assaulted another patient, and could have been separated in the new crisis units, Olson suggested.
"I believe it would have made a difference," she said.
Security staff at the hospital have been saying for years that the mixing of new patients and those in the worst crisis has been a problem, said John Collins, a union steward.
"Newcomers feel like they need to keep their head on a pivot," he said. " ... It gives them the impression they've been thrown into a prison."
Collins said the biggest reason for the assaults at the hospital aren't its physical spaces.
"It's our philosophical and clinical approach," he said.
In the last three or so years, the staff at the hospital has been instructed to reduce the use of restraints and seclusion in the name of providing a more therapeutic environment for patients.
Jesson was blunt about these new realities -- "going back to restraint and seclusion is not on the table" -- but said the staff could still use these tools if a patient is going to hurt himself or others.
And Olson said the staff is being re-educated about that standard of "imminent risk" of harm.
The hospital's state license to operate is on conditional status until December, which has heightened oversight. A different part of Jesson's human services department made that decision, so she has a complicated role here.
Tim Headlee, a lead security counselor and president of the local union, said the staff has "adopted a new way of providing treatment."
There's some tension, he said, between making a safe environment and providing effective therapy. In other words, you can provide a secure environment by putting troublemakers in restraints but that experience can be traumatic for them.
It's not a new problem; the lobotomy picks and crude shock therapy devices in a nearby museum provide plenty of evidence of how therapists have grappled with this tension in the past.
But Collins said the pendulum has now "swung too far" in the other direction. For example, staff members often aren't allowed to tell patients to clean up their messes for fear of upsetting them, he said.
Headlee put a similar sentiment this way: "A lot of (security) counselors want real-life expectations." Staff aren't there to punish, he said, but at the same time an environment where patients can do no wrong doesn't prepare them for the real world.
Of course, these are larger issues that the bonding project doesn't hope to solve.
But Jesson said she's' "heard loud and clear" that most problems at the hospital are caused by about 5 percent of its 250 patients. The bonding project could help by separating some of those patients.
In addition to the $56 million security hospital request, the human services department is also asking the Legislature for a $7.4 million expansion at the Minnesota Sex Offender Program, usually called MSOP.
The two programs are on the same campus, are home to people civilly committed by the courts and have rehabilitation into society as their stated goal, but are otherwise very different. Most of the mentally ill and dangerous people live in the hospital atop the hill, and most of the sex offenders live behind razor wire below the hill.
The House didn't include the sex offender expansion at all in its recent proposal. Jesson tied the project to the program's ongoing legal struggle by noting that the request is to expand transitional housing, called Community Preparation Services. If the federal judge is looking for evidence that more people are moving through treatment, she said, here's some.
Even so, a judge could not send new patients directly into these transitional buildings, so their value is solely for existing patients.

Welcome back 2008 Barack Obama! I feel like calling him Senator again! While I understand that the nuances of governing are very different from the nuances associated with running for election, it is nice to know that the President is still capable of bare knuckled politicking. His gloves have come off. He has played nice for the last few years and now the GOP will be held accountable for all of the sound bites they have deposited in the Win-the-Daily-News-Cycle Bank and have to face reality. Over the next year and a few months we will be reminded of the Ryan Budget, the Romney Budget (assuming he is the nominee) – a budget that assumes more drastic cuts than even the Ryan Budget without actually spelling out what will actually be cut, the Ponzi Scheme quotes and their votes on FAILING to cut middle class taxes all salted with birtherism, Tea-Party Nihilism, and their votes against raising taxes on those who make more than $1 million and pay less than the 29% many in the middle class pay. President Obama will remind voters how he GAVE THE GOP EVERYTHING THEY WANTED AND THEN SOME in the debt ceiling debate and they still wouldn't actually make a deal. When voters are confronted with the actual facts of the debate, I firmly believe they will make the sanest choice.
With all that said, I want to give my liberal friends a good way to frame the tax debate.
First, the debate needs to be framed in terms that people can understand. And second, the fundamental assumption of the debate need to be altered. As it stands, people perceive the marginal tax rate debate in terms of punishment for the hard working and innovative entrepreneur – you know, the guy you work for. The line of reasoning goes as follows: "Hey, don't tax the innovators and productive class because you might get fired!" We all know this is complete BS – but it is the dominant narrative associated with the tax debate.
In my view, the best and most simple way to frame this debate is in transactional. Instead of "punishing" the "productive" and "innovative" class we should "ensure that those who take the most from the system pay for what they take." In essence, we should be arguing that those who benefit most from the social and real infrastructure created by the American Government pay the most for the disproportional benefit that they reap. Surely, the person who gets a 2 hour full-body deep tissue massage from the world's best masseuse should pay more for that service than the person who gets 5 minute massage in an uncomfortable face chair at the mall from some person who has no idea what they are doing, right!?! Why should taxes be any different?
It would be really hard to argue that those on Wall Street don't benefit from a stable currency, free and safe shipping lanes, international trade agreements, domestic transportation infrastructure, the world's best university system a social welfare system that makes risk taking possible, investments in innovation and the protection of intellectual property. These people suck all the benefit from this big system that they can (as we all do) and pay less for what they take in benefit from the system (in relative terms) than the average Joe who wasn't a member of the lucky sperm club.
So, YES, YES America! It is more than fine – if not morally right – to ask those who get the most to pay the most. It is not class warfare and it is not a punitive. AND THIS IS ALL MORE TRUE WHEN TAXES ARE AT HISTORICAL LOWS.
So the next time you hear the word vomit meant to deflect from the actual heart of the tax matter – something like, "47% of all households don't pay taxes" – don't falter. Remind the idiot perpetuating this nonsense that 47% of households don't pay taxes because poverty is at all-time highs (15% or 46 million people) and they don't benefit enough from the system to meet the minimum requirement of income to have the opportunity to pay taxes. Let's be honest, all 47% of those families would love to pay taxes – BECAUSE THAT WOULD MEAN THEY ARE MAKING MORE MONEY! And then tell this person: "I am personally of the opinion that those who take the most in benefit from the system pay the most for the services of the system. I mean, don't you think you should pay for what you get?"

Charley has been with us for about a year and a half, and in those 18 months he's been an absolute team player. He's been a mentor to all, and his philosophies and work ethic will leave a lasting impression on everyone in our newsroom. But the way he lit up the room when he entered each day at 2:00 is what will be missed the most. Newsrooms are a funny mix of humor and deadlines. And storytelling. And Charley was one of the best. At all three.
Charley's one of the good guys. When people ask me about him, I reply with, "He's the real deal." And his love of the Minnesota Twins and beer and digging for stories made him a great fit. His last day at WDAZ will be May 31st.
Our loss is F-M's gain.
Good luck, Chuck.

Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga

Contact:Alexia Galati
|+357 99-625970
I focus on teaching Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga in the tradition of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. I usually offer led primary series classes, but also I teach Mysore-style (self-guided classes with physical adjustments) and offer workshops on the ashtanga method.
Each of the ashtanga series comprises a dynamic sequence of interlinked poses cultivating strength, flexibility, stamina, and focus. In my teaching, I seek to convey both the foundations of this method (based on the coordination of breath, movement, and gaze) and the joy derived from body movement. I provide appropriate alternatives to different bodies and their needs. My approach is heavily influenced by principles of alignment informed by Iyengar Yoga and a nuanced understanding of anatomy.
**Update September 2015**
I am currently teaching at the Life Centre in Nicosia on Thursdays at 19:00.
For upcoming events or classes, follow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AlexiaGalatiYoga?ref=hl

Mid Penn repurchases entire $10M of preferred stock purchased under TARP
The board of Mid Penn Bancorp announced that it has repurchased and redeemed all of its Series A Preferred Stock that was issued to the U.S. Treasury under the TARP Capital Purchase Program. Mid Penn repurchased the preferred stock for a price equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of $10M, plus accrued but unpaid dividends of $59,722.22. The redemption will eliminate approximately $500,000 in annual preferred dividends Mid Penn has paid on the preferred stock since its issuance. In conjunction with Mid Penn's participation in TARP, in 2008 it issued to the U.S. Treasury a warrant to purchase up to 73,099 shares of common stock. Currently, Mid Penn intends to repurchase this warrant from the U.S. Treasury.

I am looking for a way to introspect SQLAlchemy ORM classes/entities to determine the types and other constraints (like maximum lengths) of an entity's properties.
For example, if I have a declarative class:
class User(Base):
__tablename__ = "USER_TABLE"
id = sa.Column(sa.types.Integer, primary_key=True)
fullname = sa.Column(sa.types.String(100))
username = sa.Column(sa.types.String(20), nullable=False)
password = sa.Column(sa.types.String(20), nullable=False)
created_timestamp = sa.Column(sa.types.DateTime, nullable=False)
I would want to be able to find out that the '
fullname' field should be a String with a maximum length of 100, and is nullable. And the '
created_timestamp' field is a DateTime and is not nullable.

How to Treat Epididymitis
For many men Epididymitis is a very real and often painful disease, it is caused by a number of different reasons. In this article the sufferer of this condition will find numerous cures to help rid themselves of this problem.
Epididymitis disorder is an inflammation of the epididymis (the tube behind the man's testicles that carries sperm) that is due to bacteria such as coliform bacteria infection, which may occur in homosexual men. When it is found in younger men, it may come from some sort of sexually transmitted disease (STD) such as Gonorrhea or Chlamydia. While the cause of the disease for older men may originate from problems with the prostate or the urinary tract. Another common cause for Epididymitis is mumps in young men and children.
Antibiotic Treatments
The most common treatments for this condition is Antibiotic medications such as Ciprofloxiacin,Ceftriaxone,Levofloxacin, Doxcycline, Azithromycin and several others. These medications are prescribed by the physician with the purpose of clearing up or restricting the growth of bacteria.
Tuberculosis Medications
Some men may have gotten the Epididymitis condition from Tuberculosis, which means they may be given antituberculosis drugs which include Rifampin, Pyrazinamide, and Isoniazid.
Reduce the Swelling
For pain relief and reduction of the swelling you may need non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as aspirin and Ibuprofen. Your Urologist may also recommend sitz baths and icepacks to reduce the swelling.
Surgical Procedures
Depending on the severity of Epididymitis and what caused the condition, a person may have one of several surgical procedures. These include Scrotal Exploration, Epididymectomy, Epididymotomy and Orchiectomy.
Support Treatment
Dr. Edmund S. Sabanegh of the Center for Male Fertility and author of "Common Problems of the Testicle" suggest that you also reduce physical activity and that you support your scrotum and elevate it using a soft pad or a pillow. He also suggests the use of Analgesics such as Motrin to block the pain.

The Clanging Gongs of Doom 2009 (An Evolving Post)
Virtual awards time! The inaugural Clanging Gongs of Doom show starts here and starts now. Or, actually, in a little while. Have to go change a nappy. Back in a bit.
Ok. Nuclear bum waste disposed of. And I didn't get no shit on me tux neither. Let's get to it.
1) The "Ah crap…I'm genuinely upset that this relatively famous person has died" Clanging Gong of Doom for 2009 goes to…
2009 – that rabid devourer of life and livelihood – has (in its final days) claimed another victim. Into its gaping (frost-bitten) maw has tumbled a "genre" hero. A titan of B-Culture. *sniff*
While most obits (such as there are) have focused on the John Carpenter connection (Dark Star) or the begetting role he played in Alien, comparatively few have made much mention of what is (for me) his magnum opus.
Baby-watching detail doesn't allow time for much fresh elaboration, so I'll dip into my archival sack and recycle some previously aired thoughts:
Few things are as enjoyable (when successfully realised) as good horror comedies – the only problem being that there are so few of them around. List-compiling film buffs routinely cite the same three or four features as high points of the sub-genre: An American Werewolf in London, Evil Dead 2, Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein etc. Rarely (outside of 'fanboy' circles) however, does one hear mention of Dan O'Bannon's delightful and delirious Return of the Living Dead. Best known perhaps for being the film that introduced the classic zombie "Brrrraaaaaiiinnnsssss!!" refrain to cinema audiences, its ingredients – general daftness, a cast of fairly irritating teens etc – do not appear overly promising on paper.
What makes it memorable (and highly rewatchable…especially after a few pints) though, are three perfectly pitched performances from the senior male leads: James Karen (as the folksy and avuncular 'Frank'), Clu Gulager (as his put-upon, pragmatic boss 'Burt'), and Don Calfa (as the Nazi-loving mortician 'Ernie').
Add in a kicking soundtrack (from The Cramps et al), a 90 minute runtime that ensures the joke doesn't become too strained, a winning affection for its (unabashed) 'B-Movie' aesthetic etc, and the result is a gooey, gory, hilarious treat. There may be one or two more important zombie films (Dawn of the Dead, for example) but none are anything like this much fun.
Dan – your award is now beaming its way o'er the astral networks to the happy lands of the dead. RIP.
Now for a long-ish commercial break – a day or so most likely (this ceremony is to be a very leisurely affair, allowing ample time for Yuletide reflection on mortality).
And…we're back. Stuffed to overflowing with day old turkey and sprouts (and stuffing). Giddy from the effects of one too many hot ports. Delighting in the gifts we have received (most notably a sumptuous book on the work of Ray Harryhausen, signed by Ray Harryhausen). Ready to dish out more gongs.
2) The "Tireless Promoter of Crude Gender Stereotypes" Gong of Doom goes to…
Radio Advertising
If you discount, a) the buffoonish entrepreneurial comedy stylings of Ben Dunne, and, b) twee Ould Mr. Brennan chuckle-fests, then 100% of all remaining Irish radio ads are puke-inducing, "War of the Sexes"-style shitathons.
The message is ever the same. All fellas are slovenly, disorganised eejits – but (Ho! Ho!) loveably rougish for all that. You can't actually see them winking cheekily to camera (what with it being radio and all) but the wink (and elbow nudge) is automatically implied.
All "girls", on the other hand, are nag-o-maniacal bitch-monsters who alternate between joyless tut-tutting (at their fella's many failings) and coquettish arm-twisting to get what they want. And what they all want, of course, are a) shoes, b) vouchers for the Kildare Village Outlet Centre, c) chocolate-coated Sex & the City box-sets, and, d) huge fuck-off engagement rings.
Having established the above facts, radio has (for the last 12 months) beamed out non-stop messages like these:
"Staggering home from the pub? Langered drunk? Forgotten to do that thing you were asked to do (like, forty times)? Don't sweat it! Pop in to your nearest Londis and pick up a Mega-Bar of Galaxy Indulgence for only €1.50. We guarantee it'll shut that bitch up!
Way hey! Go on the lads…
Not all advertising is this evil of course. Some of it is life-affirmingly wonderful. Behold (even if you've already beheld it):
Along with its magnificent "making of" companion, this was the YouTube find of the year. Snow-speeders in space (traveling with an Imperial fleet)? Decidedly non-canon "Beam Transfer" technology? A Darth Vader/Maurice Pratt buddy movie dynamic? This ad had it all. It's a worthy winner of…
3) The 2009 "Priceless Pop-Cultural Treasure Dragged Back from the Edge of Oblivion" Clanging Gong of Doom.
More to follow (probably).
Right. Last couple of gongs going mouldy in the bottom of me bag here. Beginning to reek. Time for some quick-fire awarding.
4) The Clanging Gong for "Bestest and Fabulousest (Irish) Blog Post of the Year" goes to…
The Notional Conversation (Fergal Crehan, Tuppenceworth)
At a time when public figures were lining up to sing (with misty-eyes) the praise of Questions & Answers (and John Bowman) – Fergal's cracking post exposed the inner-workings of the (smooth & pointless) "public discourse" machine.
5) The Clanging Gong for "Weirdest & Most Brain-Searingly Wonderful Book of the Year" is hereby awarded to…
You Shall Die by Your Own Evil Creation! (Fletcher Hanks; edited by Paul Karasik, Fantagraphics).
Question: How would you punish a criminal master-mind who tried, using his "oxygen-destroying ray", to take over the world by suffocating "every big shot in America"? If you answered, "By using my transforming ray to turn him into a giant head before hurling him into a 'space pocket of living death where the headless headhunter dwells'", then Fletcher Hanks (a demented 1930s/40s comic auteur and visionary) may be something of a kindred spirit.
Long neglected and largely forgotten, Hanks' work has undergone something of a revival in the last 2 years or so, thanks to Paul Karasik's (Eisner award-winning) reprint collection I Shall Destroy All the Civilized Planets (Fantagraphics, 2007). Hanks (as that astonishing volume delightfully illustrated) was churning out his violent tales of bizarre crime and savage (grotesque!) retribution at a time when "Superhero Comic" conventions had not yet been established. Without a prescribed path – and cursed/blessed with a stiff and crude artistic technique – Hanks was free to indulge in "righteous" morality tales of power, potency and gleefully excessive brutality. His villains were decidedly un-super: bumbling gangsters or fifth columnists. Ape-like hoods as drawn by Hieronymus Bosch. His heroes, like the "Super Wizard" Stardust, were omnipotent dolers-out of the roughest justice.
Hanks (an alcoholic, violently abusive father) died destitute & frozen on a park bench. The work in (volume 2) You Shall Die by Your Own Evil Creation! (produced entirely by Hanks, at breakneck speed) might be testament to rage-filled, borderline psychosis – but it's thrillingly vital and magnificently (uniquely) strange for all that.
Hmmm…I smell yet another atomic nappy. Time to don the Hazmat suit and begin Operation Destinkify. That's yer lot for the 2009 Awards. Semi-regular service will resume in the New Year. 2010! We're living in the future!

I love that ad.
It's Maurice's little shrug as Darth Vader beams out of Quinnsworth that is the magic moment.
Though it is surely a cause for concern that Maurice has had a scanner installed amongst the fruit & veg in Rathfarnham shopping centre. what's he really up to?
I can't beleive I won a Clanging Gong of Doom (a "Clangie"?)! You like me, you really like me! In your fucking face Irish Blog Awards!
Thanks for the kind words about my Fletcher Hanks collections.
BTW: A Christmas miracle, of sorts, has occurred.
Not that anyone cares but me…BUT….there appear to more Fletcher Hanks stories that I missed in what I thought was the Complete Hanks!
I spent a looong time looking at these pages posted by Frank Young:
…and have come to the conclusion that they are, in fact by Hanks. The second story is taken directly from the final Big Red McLane tale with the captions rewritten and the faces re-rendered. The first story really had me stumped, so many of the compositions are un-Hanksian but ultimately tiny details such as hair-rendering, crowd rendering , and big details like, yes, anatomy have made me change my mind.
I knew that sooner or later it would happen: the undiscovered Fletcher Hanks has been discovered.
Copyright infringement FTW. Also, I had two of those toys! The two lamest ones.
By which I meant, that ad looked kind of illegal… not that I was having a go at you for posting. Argh.
I'll get me coat.
