Just returned from a two night stay at the Park Grand with my boyfriend. Overall, we were very pleased with the hotel. I have read a few reviews that say that the rooms are small, which I do partly agree with, but this definitely didn't cause any problems. No, the rooms aren't huge, but they are clean, well decorated, and have everything you could possibly need! The bed was incredibly comfy as well!
Upon arrival, we were greeted and checked in very quickly, and were given directions to our room. The en suite was a little bit cramped, but it was all very clean and modern, and the shower was bigger than a standard shower cubicle. We had a small problem with the toilet, as the water wouldn't stop running after a flush, but we informed reception, and they sent someone up to fix it straight away.
Breakfast was lovely, with plenty to eat and drink and friendly waitresses. The only problem we had was that we went to breakfast at the wrong time and had to wait a bit longer for a table. But that can be avoided by not leaving it too late.
The hotel itself is situated in a nice area, about a 10 minute walk from Hyde park, and 5 minute walk from Paddington station. We didn't really look around for any shops or restaurants particularly nearby, it seems like more of a residential area, but there are plenty of shops and the like near the station.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel, as I feel that you get a really good deal for the price you pay, it's in a lovely location, the staff are friendly, and as long as you don't expect the Ritz, you'll be fine!

Dave Kallmann offers news, notes and perspective on the wide world of auto racing
I hate night races
There should be no more than a handful of NASCAR Nextel Cup races that intentionally finish after dark: the All-Star race and the World/Coca-Cola 600 in Charlotte in May, Bristol in August, the September Richmond race and maybe the Pepsi 400.
That's it.
Make the rest start at the same time Sunday, say 2 p.m. Eastern, 11 a.m. on the West Coast, and make it easy for everyone. Forget about that twilight nonsense. Forget about the confusion (Noon? 1 o'clock? 2:30??), forget about dumping 100,000 people onto the highways at midnight after some of them have been drinking for hours. And hours. And hours.
Now Chicagoland Speedway becomes the latest to take its Cup race to a Saturday night, July 12.
Have you been to Joliet? Have you noticed the traffic? Have you seen where those cars is headed? Do you like getting home at 1 in the morning after 12 hours a sporting event? Or 2 a.m.? After 15 hours?
This is the sort of insanity that challenges fans. And apparently this family-friendly sport has stopped caring about kids. As if the expense weren't enough to keep them from the track, now the hours are too.
"Night racing provides an additional element of intrigue and excitement," NASCAR Chairman Brian France says in the series schedule announcement. "Running under the lights at Chicagoland on a Saturday night will be even more exciting for the fans in the stands as well as those watching from home."
If he wants real excitement, he can drive right on past the helicopter pad and sit in bumper-to-bumper, 8 mph traffic on I-55 in the wee hours with a couple of over-tired, sunburned kids in the backseast and a carload of drunken 20-somethings (or 40-somethings; it doesn't matter) honking and screaming in the next lane.
Am I wrong?

Vaio Z
Users who want everything out of their notebook, no matter how ridiculous the demands, are probably more than at least a little curious about Sony's VAIO Z2. There's good reason to be: this 13.1" ultrabook features a stunning 1080p screen, a secondary battery slice that nearly doubles running time off the mains, and an external dock box that features an optical drive, additional connectivity, and a dedicated GPU that can actually be used to power the notebook's internal screen. The VAIO Z2 has a lot going for it, but is it worth the heavy price tag? Outside of the specs on paper—which admittedly look quite good—what's the build quality like on the Z2, how does it fare in day to day use, and are there...

Just for clarity, I had written a sentence without a question mark, I corrected it immediately after posting but Q.G. had already answered to my post. My statement
If I take a picture of a lit monument at night, the exposure for the monument isn't the same even if I am far from the monument.
Should read:
If I take a picture of a lit monument at night, the exposure for the monument isn't the same even if I am far from the monument?
The explanation given is not clear to me. When I am far, the angle at which I see the piano is narrower than when I am near. The piano goes on spreading light in all directions, but when I am far I am reached by only one smaller quota of that light.
When I am near, I am reached by a larger quota.
So, the explanation confuses me even more.
When I am far, not just the light has "diverged more" than when I am near (it is more "spreaded" just like butter is thinner if spread on a larger slice of bread) but, in addiction to this, I even see a smaller "angle" of it.
I visualize light as if it were the surface of a rubber balloon. The more I inflate the balloon, the more the same rubber is spread over a larger surface, so the quantity of rubber per unit of surface is smaller.
If I consider the solid angle, well, even inflating the balloon, the amount of rubber for a certain solid angle never changes.
But when I take a picture of the piano from far, with a tele lens, I am using just a smaller "solid angle" of the light reflected by the piano.
Ever more confused

Add more trees and a mountain range, lose most of the electric posts, change the paved road to a single lane that turns gravel after half a mile and throw in a bunch of snakes and a pack of roaming dogs who like to laze in the mid-day sun indifferent to oncoming traffic and it's the spitting image.

No difference whatsoever.

Tramper, Maori Beach, Rakiura National ParkPHOTO: Baptiste Maryns ©
Located in
Stewart Island/Rakiura in
the Southland region

Transport to the island is either a 20-minute flight from Invercargill Airport or a one-hour trip on the ferry from Bluff.
Trampers need to be prepared for southern weather which can turn wild, wet and windy at any time of the year.
There is always mud on the Northwest and Southern circuits and those attempting these tracks need to allow for flooding in certain areas during rainy periods.
A visit to the Rakiura National Park Visitor Centre in Oban is recommended before beginning any of the longer walks within Rakiura National Park, as weather and track conditions are constantly subject to change.
Rainbow at Duck Creek, Mason Bay
8 - 14 March 2016: Situated in a remote area of Rakiura National Park on Stewart Island/Rakiura this activity involves clearing vegetation off the Surveyors Track, which was cut in 1888 to provide access to the tin field.

BBQ Oysters are served at the Red Fish Grill, 115 Bourbon St., New Orleans, La.
- Filed Under
Coated in cornmeal, flash fried, tossed in a mixture featuring Crystal hot sauce, and then topped with a chunky, crumbly blue cheese dressing, the BBQ Oysters at Red Fish Grill in New Orleans are essentially Buffalo wings made with oysters instead of chicken.
They are highly addictive. When I first visited, they were presented on half-shells washed and re-purposed for effect, but the dish has become so popular that the staff can no longer keep up and simply put them on plates - it doesn't matter as they are still fantastic. $10 for 6; $17 for a dozen.Review: Barbecue oysters amaze at New Orleans' ...

Materials needed: 3/4" Putty Tape and Screws.
Optional items that may need replacing: Safety Chain, Storm Door Hardware Kit and Entrance & Deadbolt Combo Lockset.
|Taking Measurements
1. Width: Measure outside to outside of the wood jamb.
2. Length: Measure outside of the wood jamb from the top past the threshold to the floor.
For example if your rough opening measures 33 1/2"W x 75 1/2"L you would select the nearest size and order a 34"W x 76"L.
Note: This should be the same measurements if you removed the door and measured the rough opening.
3. To determine if your door is right or left hinged, look at the door from the outside to see which side the hinges are on.
|Installation Instructions
1. Make certain all mounting surfaces (siding seams included) are securely fastened and flat around perimeter of door opening.
2. Apply a suitable non-hardening sealant tape (Putty Tape or Butyl Tape) to the backside of the door's mounting flange.
3. Do not remove any shipping clips or fasteners and keep the door closed and locked during the installation. Opening the door prior to the installation will destroy the pre-squaring by the manufacturer.
4. Insert the door assembly carefully into the rough opening. Make certain the door sill is secure on the floor. Move door to the hinge side until it is firmly against the stud.
5. Proceed to fasten door with Hex Head Screws. Drive the first 3 screws into the outer pre-punched flange in the middle at the hinge side. Then, drive the next 3 screws in the middle on the lock side. Then, secure the balance of the hinge side, across the sill, up the lock side and the header.
6. Remove the shipping clips and open the door. Install the Locks, Storm Door Hardware and Safety Chain.
7. Make sure 2 long screws are installed through the storm door closer bracket fastened to the jamb. This is to anchor the bracket securely to the hinge side stud.
8. If the inner door is secured to the jamb with butt type hinges (some six panel doors), run one long screw through each hinge on the jamb side to penetrate the stud.
9. Some doors will have an adjustable stop. Adjust the stop to the exterior of the inner door to insure a good seal.
If these steps are followed, the door will be sealed and operate properly.

Q: Can i order this door in brown
A: Combination doors are only available in white.
Q: How do I determine which way the hinges face ?From the outside facing the storm door or from the inside facing the entry door?
A: To determine if your door is right or left hinged, look at the door from the outside to see which side the hinges are on.
Q: Can the window grilles be removed? or are they fixed on the glass?
A: They are not meant to be removed, you would have to take out the entire window and there is no guarantee it will go back together. The grids are part of the window frame.

I think it is time to reanimate this old fantastic thread:
Diazo/DAS is also used replace dichromate in Collotype:
The side contains a nice description about Collotype.
For the carbon print: I tried for long time to sensitize coated gelatin layers with a brush. This works in principle even with the Speedball sensitizer. However I always get some degree of fog. (Even on the unexposed parts of the gelatin layer). So I add the DAS now to the gelatin before coating.
Many thanks to Chris for making the DAS available. Since Ive access to a photo spectrometer I made some absorption spectrum of DAS in water. It has a maximum around 333nm.

Detroit (AP) -- Senator Barack Obama says the US auto industry needs some help in shifting its emphasis from bigger and faster to more fuel-efficient technology.
The Democratic presidential candidate will outline that goal in an afternoon speech before Detroit business and political leaders.
He hopes the government can encourage domestic automakers to make fuel-efficient hybrid vehicles by giving them health-care assistance for retirees. His plan also would require automakers to invest half of their health-care savings into technology to produce those vehicles.
In his prepared remarks, Obama says that, while the big three US automakers are "hemorrhaging jobs and profits," the foreign competition is addressing what he calls "the rising global demand for fuel-efficient cars."

U.S. Pushes Sudan Meetings to Ensure Referendum, Avoid Violence
The U.S. is working to avoid the "danger" that could develop if Southern Sudan fails to hold a long-planned referendum on whether to secede from Sudan and form a separate nation, U.S. State Department spokesman Philip J. Crowley said.
Preparations are behind schedule for the Jan. 9 referendum, a key part of the 2005 peace agreement that ended the civil war between Sudan's Muslim north and the oil-producing south, where Christianity and traditional beliefs dominate. A disputed border area, Abyei, will hold its own referendum on which side to join.
"We recognize the potential danger if credible referenda are not held," Crowley said at a briefing today. "That's why we are working intensively to try to get the parties to agree so that the referenda on the future of South Sudan and Abyei can be held on time."
Crowley said the U.S. special envoy to Sudan, Scott Gration, was expected to go to the country tomorrow. Former Ambassador Princeton Lyman, called in to assist Gration, is already in the area, he said.
The referendum law says the initial voter registration lists should have been ready by Aug. 31, with the final lists to be released three months before voting. Registration is now set to begin Nov. 14.
Sudan's state-run news agency, SUNA, said Oct. 20 that the initial voter list will be announced Dec. 6 and that the referendum will take place on Jan. 9 as scheduled.
Southern Sudan's president, Salva Kiir, said Sept. 22 that "any delays risk a return to instability and violence of a massive scale." A recent study by the Washington-based National Democratic Institute shows a majority of Southern Sudanese favoring independence, while Sudan's government is campaigning for voters in the region to reject secession.
Sudan is sub-Saharan Africa's third-largest crude oil producer, pumping 490,000 barrels a day, according to the BP Statistical Review of World Energy. Most of that oil is pumped in Southern Sudan, and proceeds are currently split between the north and the south.

Historical Capital Gains Tax Rates and Market Performance 1 comment
The table here shows the Maximum capital gains tax rate history plus top federal income tax rates since 1916.
Table of Historical Capital Gains Tax Rates
In 1916 the Capital Gains Tax Rate was 15%.
Between 1987 and 1996, Capital Gains Tax Rate was between 28% and 29.2%.
In 1997, under president Bill Clinton, they cut rates to 21.2% and the stock market took off.
Historical Chart of S&P500
In 2003, rates were cut again and the market had another big rally, more than doubling before the financial meltdown.
Today the market seems stuck in a quagmire... could it be because capital gains tax rates return to 25% (21.2% plus 3.8% for Medicare under the Obama-care plan) in 2013?Back To Kirk Lindstrom's Instablog HomePage »

Two prototype homes, one designed for the state's wind-beaten coast and one for the Arctic, will be built in remote villages this summer as researchers look for low-cost answers to the housing crunch in rural Alaska.
In rainy Quinhagak, where a recent report found that dozens of 1970s-era houses may be rotting and potentially unsafe to live in, the village plans to build an easy-to-heat, eight-sided home meant to resemble traditional Yup'ik dwellings.
The three-bedroom house could cut energy bills by 50 percent and cost as little as $200,000 to build, according to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Cold Climate Housing Research Center.
A Fairbanks-based nonprofit, the research center designed both the test homes at the request of villages and housing authorities and with direction from village residents. The expected price for the Quinhagak home is roughly half the cost of other recent houses built in the Western Alaska village, the center says.
The potential savings are even greater in the North Slope, where building materials are shipped by plane and, in at least one village, a contractor estimated new three-bedroom homes would cost $1.1 million each, said Dan Shepherd, project manager for the regional housing authority.
Instead, the Cold Climate Housing Research Center has designed a prototype for the Arctic coast village of Point Lay on the Chukchi Sea with a target price tag of about $200,000, according to the Fairbanks researchers.
Two homes are planned for construction this year, Shepherd said. "Hopefully this could be a new trend and better way of building and we'll be able to put out more homes for the people in the villages."
The Point Lay design includes an 18-inch buffer of soy foam insulation that should allow the prototype home to sit directly on the ground without melting permafrost, said Judith Grunau, a project manager and designer for the research center.
Two of the walls are sloped inward at a 60-degree angle, mimicking the form of traditional sod homes and hampering snowdrifts from piling against the house, Grunau said.
A 2009 study of ranch-style homes in Quinhagak by the research center found entryways threatening to collapse and swollen walls soaked from the inside out. An engineering firm declared the homes "unfit for human occupancy."
John O. Mark, housing director for the Quinhagak tribal government, lives in one of the rotting houses.
"A bed post had fallen through the bedroom floor," he said.
The research center estimates the new octagonal prototype home will need as little as 150 gallons of heating oil a year. Existing homes can use up to five times that, the center says.
It'll be easier to heat because it's designed like a sod home -- no hallways, Mark said. "These rectangular shaped houses that we own now, the heating source will face into the hallway, but the heat has a hard time going into the rooms."
The shape exposes less of the exterior walls to the wind while the design allows for foam insulation to be sprayed from the inside for easier construction in wet weather, said Jack Hebert, president and CEO of the research center.
"There is really no components of this wall that can affected by water. The exterior is steel -- steel roofing material -- so it's very durable," he said.
It's not clear who will live in the test home yet, Mark said. The Bering Sea coast village is waiting for the first freight barge of the season to arrive, most likely in June, before construction can begin.
The research center will coordinate the construction, he said. "It will be a team effort where the locals will also be trained on how to build such prototypes."
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development awarded a $450,000 emergency grant to "stabilize" homes in Quinhagak last year at the request of Sen. Mark Begich. The village is in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, home to the greatest housing needs in the state, according to a February HUD report.
An additional 2,780 units are needed in the region, the report says.
If villagers like the housing research center's new Quinhagak home design, it could be used across the Delta, Hebert said.
The center's goals are to create affordable, energy-efficient home designs that village residents can build themselves, he said.
One such home has already been built.
A family moved into a prototype home based on an earlier design in Anaktuvuk Pass, a Brooks Range village of 280 people, at the beginning of the year, he said.
Using remote sensors the researchers monitor temperatures, wind speed and energy usage in the home from Fairbanks. They're tuning the ventilation system, Hebert said, but so far the family seems happy with the home.
"The only complaint we had earlier in the winter is that their little 2-year-old didn't know how cold it was outside, the house was so comfortable, so he headed out in his diaper," he said.

There's already been quite a few musicians (and would-be ones) brought into the Nintendo DS fold thanks to apps like Jam Sessions, but it looks like there could soon be another wave flocking to the popular handheld, with the official, Korg-approved DS-10 synthesizer from AQ Interactive now headed for the DS in Japan. As you can see for yourself in the video after the break, like Jam Sessions, the synthesizer is anything but a game, with it boasting two patchable virtual synths with two oscillators each, a drum machine, a sequencer, and a full range of effects, to name but a few features. You'll also apparently be able to wirelessly link up several systems to play together or simply exchange sounds and songs, although you'll apparently have to make do without MIDI support. Needless to say, we'll keep you posted on any word of a release 'round these parts, but in the meantime, you can look forward to this one hitting Japan in July for ¥4,800, or just under $50.

The main hurdle to jump in coaxing pt/pd (or just about any other alt solution) onto/into the gelatin layer of fb paper is that of EVEN absorbtion.
Any fb paper will absorb the solutions...eventually, but probably unevenly. Unless you use a surfactant (like tween) the absorbtion will be less than ideal. I suspect that the success Annie is having is due just as much to the prolonged soaking of the paper as it is with any modification in the ph of the surface. Maybe a long soak removes something from the surface of the paper that hinders absorption. Maybe it changes the suface structure and/or opens "pores" in the coating allowing better penetration. I don't really know. I usually fix my paper then wash it for about an hour. I have found no real advantage to washing it longer nor have I found it to absorb the solutions better than if it had a very short wash. Annie's mileage however seems to vary from mine. Keep us informed about your progress Annie!
You may want to try adding a few drops of dilute Tween..say about a 10% solution to your coating mixture. You can even try Photoflo. It works...kinda. I am sure that by adding a surfactant you will find that the absorption will be much better.

ARLINGTON, Texas -- Josh Willingham is still a Minnesota Twin.
Baltimore had claimed Willingham on revocable waivers Wednesday in hopes of adding his right-handed power to an already strong lineup, but a 48-hour window to negotiate a trade closed at noon Friday and the Twins chose to revoke their waiver request on the veteran slugger
"I'm glad it's over," Willingham said. "Glad I know where I'm going to be."
The Orioles instead acquired Seattle outfielder Mike Morse in exchange for outfield prospect Xavier Avery.
No one from the Twins organization contacted Willingham to inform him would not be traded, in part because teams are threatened with hefty fines for speaking publicly about any part of the waiver process.
How did Willingham know he was supposed to report to Rangers Ballpark on Friday?
"I didn't get a phone call from anyone," he said. "I would have gotten a phone call if I was going somewhere -- I thought -- so I figured I was staying."
Orioles batting coach Jim Presley held the same position with the Florida Marlins during Willingham's three seasons with the club (2006-08), when the late bloomer averaged 21 home runs despite nagging back issues in 2008.
Willingham, 34, is signed through next season at $7 million a year. About $1.19 million remains on his contract for 2013.
The left fielder hit a career-high 35 home runs last season but has struggled at the plate this year, in part because of his left knee.
Willingham has hit .167 with two home runs in 88 at-bats since his return.
Twins general manager Terry Ryan reportedly set a high price tag on Willingham, whom he values for his veteran leadership as much as his power.
"He's quiet, but he's well respected," Ryan said Thursday. "We've had quiet guys in here that have been our best leaders."
In some ways, the Twins' refusal to deal Willingham could be viewed as a vote of confidence.
"I'm comfortable here," he said. "I like it here, so I'm happy I'm here. ... Bottom line is I didn't have any bit of control over any of it, so I didn't worry myself over it. I figured that out early in my career."
Getting claimed and reportedly involved in trade discussions won't affect the way Willingham views his status with the Twins this offseason.
"I'm going to go into this offseason, have a good offseason and get ready to go to spring training," he said. "Unless I get a phone call, I'm going to Fort Myers."
In theory, the Twins could place Willingham on waivers a second time this season, but they would not be able to revoke the placement and would lose him to the claiming team with the lowest current record at the time of the claim.
Meanwhile, with Saturday's 11:59 p.m. deadline for postseason eligibility, the Twins are running out of time to move pending free agent Justin Morneau to a playoff contender. The veteran first baseman cleared waivers two weeks ago and can be traded to any team beyond the half-dozen clubs on his limited no-trade list.
About $2.2 million would remain on Morneau's contract for the season's final month.

A sandpit (Commonwealth countries) or sandbox (US/Canada) is a low, wide container or shallow depression filled with sand in which children can play. Many homeowners with children build sandpits in their backyards because, unlike much playground equipment, they can be easily and cheaply constructed. A "sandpit" may also denote an open pit sand mine.[1][2]
The "pit" or "box" itself is simply a container for storing the sand so that it does not spread outward across lawns or other surrounding surfaces. Boxes of various shapes are often constructed from planks, logs, or other large wooden frames that allow children easy access to the sand and also provide a convenient place to sit. Small sandpits are also available commercially. These are usually made from plastic and are often shaped like an animal or other familiar objects.
They sometimes also have lids to cover the sand when not in use, so that passing animals cannot contaminate the sand by urinating or defecating in it. Having lids also prevents the sand in outdoor sandpits from getting wet when it rains, although some dampness is often desirable as it helps the sand hold together. Prefabricated sandpits may also be used indoors, especially in day care facilities. Materials other than sand are also often used, such as oatmeal, which are necessarily non-toxic and light enough to easily vacuum away.
Sandpits can have a solid bottom or they can be built directly onto the soil. The latter allows free drainage (which is useful if the top is open) but can lead to contamination of the sand with soil if the children dig down to the ground.
The sand gets dirty over time and is eventually replaced. The old sand can be discarded or used for other purposes (for example, mixed into concrete).
Some people may use ordinary building sand to fill sandpits, while others use special sandbox sand. Since it is not washed, building sand is far cheaper, but often contains materials such as clay that may stain clothes. It also contains a mixture of grain sizes and colors, and hence has less eye appeal. Ordinary building sand may be strained with a sieve and washed to remove clay and particles to create a cleaner play medium. Many schools and playgrounds in North America have replaced sand around play structures with a wood chip mixture, as it is cheaper and does not stain clothing.

PM Harper's fishing buddy behind Kyoto attack group [1]
Kevin Grandia [2] | July 21, 2006
By Kevin Grandia [2] • Friday, July 21, 2006 - 16:03
Dr. Cooper is a very well-known member of the so-called "Calgary School [10]," a group of U of C professors attributed with the rise of Prime Minister Stephen Harper and the ruling Conservative Party of Canada.
Cooper is also Stephen Harper's fishing buddy [11]. [11] With Harper and his Conservatives scrapping climate change programs and moving away from the Kyoto Accord, the Friends of Science seem to be a well-timed, well-aligned third-party endorser that can create the public doubt Harper needs. And it's all orchestrated by one of Harper's closest allies.

Hi there Guys
Can anyone suggest good ingredients for making your own protein powder?
I have access to bulk WPI, but not sure exactly on the other goodies to bring it up to speed...
...I'm sure there is a budding nutritionist here somewhere...
I'll give you a hint for the WPI, check out any dairy producers in your area, for example...
You will need to find the US equivalent.
I can buy a 25kg of WPI for AU$205.....bargain!
Your assistance is appreciated...glad to be here.

I've reviewed all the drawings and specs on the stadium expansion and I still can't tell whether or not JTS will have additional skyboxes. When JP and others reference suites does this mean skyboxes? If so, will these go on the west side of the stadium? If not, what is the difference between the suites and the club sections?
From what I can tell, they are putting suites on the west side between the levels. There's already some there, but they plan on expanding both north and south to the end of the stands.
The club section is totally different. There's already a club section at JT, but the lounge is crappy. The club section is between the two levels, but it is not enclosed. It has probably 5-6 rows of plastic, individual seats and it is covered by the overhang of the upper east stands. Behind the seating is an indoor lounge that will have bars, restrooms, flat screens etc. IMO that would be an awesome place to watch a game.
XXXX Master Shake is under gag order XXXX
Thanks for the information, Bmuff. I was always kind of hoping that they would add another set of skyboxes on the east side. I think Gene Smith mentioned this briefly once upon a time. One other thing I would love to see happen at the stadium is a facade to cover the concourse level. Might help to cut down on the wind and create a better look for JTS.

The Brow's Son
this wiki
The Brow's Son (real name unrevealed) shared many physical traits with his father such as having the same brow ridges, though he was much younger and with a full head of lush, blonde hair and a pair of ears. All that is known about his background was that he was just an infant when his father was killed, and had a criminal record for minor offenses, serving two years in Joliet for a gas station holdup.
Alliance with AngeltopEdit
After he was released, he was part of a traveling carnival for their Gallery of Villains with wax figures of Dillinger, Flattop, Pruneface, Shaky, Al Capone, and his own father. The advertisement for the carnival said '"Meet the Brow's Son, Live!"'. Brow Jr. eventually left the carnival, met Angelica Jones and fell in love with her. He and Angelica (calling herself Angeltop) had come to Dick Tracy's hometown to promote her new book Sins of the Father: My Life as Flattop's Daughter. Brow Jr. disguised himself as a television studio crewman and shot Vitamin Flintheart (the next guest on the show), only to be pursued and identified by Junior Tracy, whom he injured while escaping. Junior's sketch of the suspect, drawn in the hospital while recovering from a concussion from his encounter with Brow Jr., completely shocked Tracy, who was convinced that no two people could look like that. Sam Catchem ran a background check on the young Brow and revealed that he was indeed the Brow's son. Brow Jr. unlike Angeltop, harbored no warm feelings for his own father, regarded his father as a murderer and was not obsessed with his father's past. He wanted nothing to do with the memory of his father and simply wanted to marry Angeltop and start a life with her.
Policewoman Lizz (who had killed Angeltop's brother Flattop Jr.) went to ask Angeltop a few questions in her hotel room (where she was making out with Brow Jr.) He hid and attempted to knock Lizz out, who fought back and managed to shoot the young Brow in the Shoulder. Tracy and Sam Catchem were waiting downstairs and both Angeltop and the wounded Brow kidnapped Tracy at gunpoint. They took him to their hideout, the Replica of the Santa Maria where Flattop had hid out (and eventually drowned) years before. They tied Tracy up and threw him into the underwater pilings where he struggled to stay afloat while the Brow rested with his girlfriend. Lizz and Sam raided the ship to rescue Tracy, which caused Angeltop to hurl a kerosene lamp, setting the ship afire. Angeltop was severely burned and fell into the water, and the Brow's son was arrested. The D.A. had to let Brow Jr. go because his rights were violated. He was last seen throwing a wreath of flowers into the water to honor Angeltop.
Angeltop's returnEdit
Four years later, it was revealed that Angeltop had survived the fire on the ship and had gotten reconstructive surgery from Dr. Will Carver. Brow Jr. was once again at her side, still as in love with her as before, but she had gone insane due to the trauma of her near death burns and many reconstructive surgeries. After Angeltop shot Carver, Brow Jr. helped her in her plan to kill Diet Smith during his Fusion Now tour, driving to Washington DC, disguised himself as a reporter, and switched Diet Smith's campaign button with an explosive one. Dick Tracy, who was the Police Liason on the Whistle Stop tour, managed to get the explosive off Diet before it blew up. Tracy searched Brow Jr, knowing who he was, but found nothing to tie him to the crime, even though he knew he was behind it.
Brow Jr. drove back to Angeltop before the explosion, so when he got back, a now insane Angeltop was furious with her boyfriend at his failure. Angeltop had kidnapped Lizz a few weeks before from her apartment and kept her prisoner. Angeltop changed her plans and planted dynamite in the Church basement on the day of Junior Tracy's Wedding to Sparkle Plenty. Brow Jr. had started to grow something that his father never had, a conscience. He tried to convince Angeltop to abort her plan, as he did not want to be involved in murdering innocent people. When that failed, the Brow's Son freed Lizz so that she could warn everyone and prevent all those needless deaths. When Lizz returned to apprehend Angeltop, Angeltop was about to kill her, only to be shot herself by the young Brow. Although he still professed his love to her, her love for him had now turned into an insane hatred. Both a heartbroken Brow Jr. and a bald Angeltop were arrested and, because of his saving Lizz's life, she stated that she would testify in his favor at his trial.Following the death of Angeltop, it was revealed that the Brow's Son had learned of the event. He was shown in prison, crying over a photograph of Angeltop and vowing revenge.
