Does Jon Meacham Remember the 2000 Election?
Time has a column this week (7/1/13) from Jon Meacham looking at (gulp) possible 2016 election scenarios. The column entertains the possibility that former Florida governor Jeb Bush might run–which Meacham seems pretty excited about. As he explains, the Bush family is something to behold: Jeb long ago internalized and then lived out his family's guiding precepts. Bushes move to new parts of the country; they work hard; they learn from their mistakes, particularly from failed campaigns; and they never, ever give up. Well they sure sound like interesting people. I would be curious to hear more about what George […]

Duty Now for the Future was the second album by American new wave band Devo, released in 1979. The majority of the songs on the album had been performed in Devo's live set as early as 1976. [3]
The "Devo Corporate Anthem" song and video are a nod to the 1975 film Rollerball, in which games are preceded by players and audience standing solemnly while listening to a regional "corporate hymn."[4]
"Secret Agent Man" is a cover (with modified lyrics) of the song by P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri and performed by Johnny Rivers in 1965. An early demo version of "Secret Agent Man" had been featured in Devo's award-winning 1976 short film The Truth About De-Evolution.
Duty Now for the Future was produced by Ken Scott. Like Brian Eno, who had produced Devo's debut album Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!, Scott had also worked with David Bowie, most notably on the records The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars and its follow-up, Aladdin Sane. Scott has heaped praised on the band, saying they were "quite professional in the studio" and that he "loved every minute of it."[5]
Scott discussed his role in the recordings and how Devo came to choose him for the album: "I consider my job to put the act across in the best way possible, in the way THEY wish to be perceived. I hate it when I'm part of the final equation. The act was signed for their talent not mine. I just wish the modern A&R people saw things that way. I know they chose me because of the Bowie records I did, but I don't know if it was a direct recommendation from Mr Jones. Devo always wanted to learn. That's why they worked with each producer only once. Took what they needed and then time to move on."[6]
One prominent aspect of Duty Now for the Future is in the manipulated sound of the guitars. According to Scott, to record the solo for "Secret Agent Man," "We overloaded mic amps and fed the signal through headphones which were taped to the mic."[7]
Devo bassist and co-songwriter Jerry Casale corroborated this approach in an interview with Bam Magazine in 1979. "A guitar can only do what a guitar does. It's like only one tiny piece of a synthesizer. On this album, we did much more with the guitars, too. Sometimes you don't know that they're guitars."[8]
However, more recently, Casale has been critical of the sound of the album, particularly in a Reddit chat on June, 25th, 2013. "I love the songs but I loathe Ken Scott's production. He 'de-balled' us." [9]
Promotional music video[edit]
Devo produced one music video for this album. "The Day My Baby Gave Me a Surprize" combined animation with blue screen effects of the band performing. In this video, Devo chiefly wore white shirts and pants and silver 3D glasses. Also of note is the appearance of Alex Mothersbaugh, the daughter of guitarist Bob Mothersbaugh.[10] Alex would be featured on the back cover of Devo's 1984 album, Shout.
A short clip of the band standing at attention and then saluting was filmed to accompany "Devo Corporate Anthem" and was used in concert performance.[11]
Duty Now for the Future was on the Billboard charts for 10 weeks, peaking at #73. It was received less enthusiastically than their first release, Are We Not Men? We Are Devo!. Dave Marsh, writing in Rolling Stone, condemns it completely, feeling that "inspired amateurism works only when the players aspire to something better." [12] In their review of the album, Smash Hits described it as "unimpressive", but noted that the "change of style definitely grows on you".[2] They went on to say that, although the album was more accessible, it was "lacking the zany magic of old".
The AllMusic review, written more than a decade later, takes a longer view. Reviewer Mark Deming writes that "their second album captures the group in the midst of a significant stylistic shift" while acknowledging that the song "'Triumph of the Will' embraces fascism as a satirical target without bothering to make it sound as if they disapprove." [13] KROQ/LA long-time DJ Jed The Fish, admittedly a huge fan of Devo, sees the album as playing "catch-up," fleshing out many more songs from their immense volume of demo recordings.
Cultural Significance[edit]
A seminal new wave synthpop album, Duty Now for the Future was eventually heralded as one of the first pop/rock or AOR releases of a major record label to rely heavily on synthesizers, which went on to be widely used in the subsequent New Wave genre of the 1980s. As an offshoot of punk rock, new wave music had consisted primarily of guitar-based songs derived from traditional rock and roll and blues scales and riffs, as represented by Devo's punk contemporaries the Sex Pistols, Ramones and The Clash.
Legendary Punk Rock icon Henry Rollins is among the many musicians that praise the album's innovations. Rollins' short-lived Infinite Zero reissue label (an offshoot of American Recordings) was responsible for the first U.S. CD release of Duty Now for the Future in 1994. The album had been continually overlooked by original label Warner Brothers.
Album cover[edit]
The American 12" album cover was jokingly dominated by the album's Universal Product Code. The colorful Janet Perr artwork satirized the new requirements for these bar codes. Until that time, album covers were seen as an entire art form unto themselves. Consequently, the new mandates for UPCs splashed across every work of album art were a subject of much protest as an infringement upon artistic integrity and an Orwellian symbol of the impersonal modern age.
The rectangular image of the band originally came perforated and could therefore be removed from the "offending" barcodes surrounding it.
The inner sleeve included the lyrics of all the songs printed in a single block of closely printed text. In addition to other artwork, the sleeve also featured a West Hollywood address from which one could request information and news about the band. In addition, an address was included to allow purchasers to order a copy of the 'Devo-vision" videocassette from Time/Life. This tape was never actually made available from Time/Life and was a few years later issued under the title "The Men Who Make The Music" via Warner Home Video.

Walking into Frog Hollow Racquet Club in Worcester on a recent Friday afternoon, for Mihaela Codreanu it might as well have been Cheers — everyone seems to know her name.
With a season like the Methacton sophomore had this fall, there's far more people than the ones inside a local tennis club that have come to know her name.
In the greatest individual season by any girls tennis player in area history Codreanu was a silver star, capturing second place in both the District 1-AAA Championships and PIAA Class AAA Championships after leading the Warriors team to second place in the PIAA Team Championships.
Her unprecedented success for her team and herself made Codreanu the easy selection as The Mercury's All-Area Girls Tennis Player of the Year.
Codreanu burst on to the scene as a ninth grader, winning the PAC-10 singles championship and ultimately making the PIAA Championships, a massive accomplishment for a first-year player.
In Year 2 her goal was to return to Hershey for the PIAA tournament and advance past the first round.
What became of her season was so much more.
Tennis is very much an individual discipline, which made the success of the Methacton team all the more exciting.
"We did amazing as a team. District champions, second place in states — that was just great,' said Codreanu. "Our team was so supportive of each other. We achieved so many goals and it was so unexpected. It was a season we'll never forget.'
It was obvious the Warriors were a talented team considering two-time PAC-10 singles champion Lauren Simeone was playing No. 3 singles, behind Codreanu and freshman Jordyn King. But with only moderate past postseason success as a team it was hard to know where the Warriors would fall.
With Codreanu and the other two singles standouts leading the way, Methacton topped Conestoga in the District 1-AAA final and then won three rounds in states before falling to North Allegheny, 3-2, in the final. Codreanu didn't lose a match the entire team run and only dropped one set, when she rallied past Unionville standout Zaini Zaki, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 in the state semifinals.
"I couldn't believe that we made it so far. I was very proud of my team for being focused and doing their best,' Codreanu said.
After winning a second straight PAC-10 singles title, she went a step farther in the district tournament, this year making the final before falling to defending state champion Cristina Kaiser of Plymouth-Whitemarsh, 6-3, 7-6 (2).
Then at the PIAA Championships she quickly surpassed her preseason goal with back-to-back 6-0, 6-0 victories in the first two rounds.
Codreanu's talent and commitment to tennis is obvious. What may set her aside is her competitive spirit and winning mentality, something that was never more on display than in the PIAA semifinals against District 1 champion Callie Frey, who knocked Codreanu out of states the previous year.
"She beat me first round last year and I definitely had that in my mind. I lost the first set 6-0; it flew by,' Codreanu said. "I was determined to play my best and do the best I can. I couldn't just say, ' Oh, I got to the semis. She's better than me.'
"No, I had to fight. And I did.'
Indeed, Codreanu dropped the first set 6-0, seemingly a continuation of her 6-1, 6-2 loss to Frey the year before.
"The second set I just did my best and I won the set. So in the third, I thought, ' I can do this.' (Methacton) Coach (Cathy) Miller gave me great advice and I followed it. I loosened up and I believed in myself.'
Her belief and game matched up even when the third set went to a tiebreaker and Codreanu came through in the clutch to win 0-6, 6-3, 7-6 (6) to reach the final. Ultimately, Pine-Richland senior Marlys Bridgham, the District 7 runner-up, completed her hot streak by stopping Codreanu, 6-1, 6-4, for the championship.
Fortunately for Codreanu, she'll have two more opportunities to take it a step further.
"Of course I want that gold. I'll try my best and keep working hard. That's the most important thing.'
Demure yet warm, the girl off the court doesn't entirely match the one on it. On the court she is committed to honing her craft — ' practice like you play' she likes to say. She does that quite a bit, practicing 4-5 days a week, two hours a session. It's part of what makes Codreanu the tennis player full of belief.
"Off the court is one thing, but on the court I'm determined,' she said. "I know my ability and I know what I can do. On the court I expect my best tennis to come forward.'
Codreanu fell in love with tennis during her early years living in Romania.
"I was around 5 or 6. My dad had a tennis racquet and I picked it up and I fell in love. I just can't get away from it,' she said.
Whether it was those early years in Romania or when she moved to the United States with her parents Michael and Lilia in 2008, she has always been determined to be the best she could be.
"If I have a task at hand I want to do my best at it. When I was younger it was the same,' she said.
Even outside a match setting, just a casual hit, there are flashes of the competitor. The long, confident groundstrokes are obvious, the elegant service motion a work of art with so many moving parts coming together in a burst of power greater than her slight frame would appear able to generate. The hitting partner puts a bit extra on the shot, a would-be winner but Codreanu isn't about to concede. Instead, she chases it down and returns her shot with a bit more angle, more power, more spin than the one sent her direction.
Practice like you play indeed.
Afterwards she's asked, what do you think are your greatest strengths as a tennis player?
"Well,' she pauses then says with a smile, "that's for me to know.'
A magician never unveils her secret.

A THINK TANK designed to improve financial practice in the City has suspended a senior manager and called in the police over alleged fraud in the organisation.
The International Centre for Financial Regulation (ICFR) has reported the incident to the City of London Police.
Further reading
"The ICFR can also confirm that a member of the management has been suspended pending the outcome of this inquiry," a statement from the organisation said.
ICFR CEO Barbara Ridpath said: "We consider this situation to be a serious one and it will have a bearing on the future of the ICFR. We are working urgently to find out exactly what has happened, and to resolve the situation in the best interests of all concerned."
The ICFR was created, and partly supported, by the government as well as private sector backers and the City of London Corporation – an organisation set up to look after the Square Mile business district.

He signed a 5-year deal in 2009 and has failed to live up to expectations. His minutes have been all over the place and, for someone making $8 million per year on a young team, you expect him to contribute more. You do not expect him to be out of the rotation for long stretches or to miss games with the dreaded "DNP-CD." That has become Villanueva's reality and now he is back to being a highly paid role player trying to find his way on the team. This year, Villanueva is averaging 7.7 points per game and is shooting 41.6 percent from the floor. Villanueva has struggled to find any footing in Detroit the past four years as his scoring numbers have sharply decline...

CLEVELAND (AP) - The Browns have signed rookie offensive lineman Garrett Gilkey to a four-year contract.
However, the Browns had him lined up at guard during their organized team activity practices. Gilkey was one of just three Division II players invited to the 2013 Senior Bowl.
Gilkey is the second pick from the 2013 rookie class to sign with Cleveland. Former Notre Dame safety Jamoris Slaughter also signed a four-year deal earlier this week, when the Browns released safety Eric Hagg.
Linebacker Barkevious Mingo (first round), cornerback Leon McFadden (third round) and defensive end Armonty Bryant (seventh round) remain unsigned.

There's something so freeing about having a fresh and versatile face that allows me to confidently fit into the many hats I wear during the day- an entrepreneur, a wife, a mommy (to 2 french bulldogs), and a creative soul.
When Estée Lauder approached me about this partnership I literally had to pinch myself as it has so much personal history and value. Growing up, I watched my mom religiously apply Estée Lauder products day and night. My first exposure to makeup and glamour was associated with a deep red Estée Lauder lipstick my mother would apply daily. Looking at all the beautiful ad campaigns and rich luxurious products, I always knew that one day I'd be an Estée girl. I'm ecstatic to announce my partnership with Estée Lauder as their contributor for the Estée Edit!
When we were conceptualizing our very first video collaboration, I wanted to create a look that was glamorous yet extremely relatable. I'm the type of girl that always likes to look polished and glamorous with the least amount of effort. I mean, who doesn't? So for this first video I wanted to share with you a few quick beauty tips that have completely changed my life by cutting my beauty routine in half!
I hope you can incorporate these life changing tips into your beauty routine. It's so important to feel confident with yourself, and that starts with the face you first put out into the world. So without further ado, here is the Day to Night Beauty video….
this is so amazing

Showing yourself doesn't make you weak.
I'll give you exactly what you seek.
This vulnerability is a part of you.
There isn't anything you can do.
I'm only here to give you help.
Don't have to do it by yourself.
It doesn't matter what you say.
I promise that I'm here to stay.

Let me be there to relieve.
Want you to know I don't think less.
Only you think that you're a mess.
Please, I just want to be here.

touching love it
Love this
Having just dated a Borderline, this really hits home.
This is more like traditional verse, you have rhymed couplets.
I had my poems at tradition verse and someone told me that I need to change them because they don't follow any specific traditional poetry.
This is a very comforting piece of literature that brings across the emotions very well.
I love this <3
Awwww, sounds like love
You sound...happy
I am! He makes me really happy.
For some reason, your poems always seem to go with my life; first it was sad and lonely, wanting for happiness. Then it is unsureness of yourself, not knowing what will happen if you show yourself. After, more insecurity from personal problems. And to finish..... Finally finding your real friends, and this poem here shows what they feel for you. That they love you for you as true friends.
How strange. I'm glad things are going better for you.
It is..... And thanks. I'm glad to have friends like them. Oddly enough, we've been friends for about 2 months now, and they know me better than someone who has known me for 3 years! Honestly, I sometimes catch myself thinking this is a dream.
Good piece, some people I know I wish they would open up more and talk
Thank you, and people often think that they're being a burden when they're not.
Exactly, such is the case with one dear friend of mine, always worried she's distracting me when I choose to talk to her.
Mine's my boyfriend. Sweetest guy I've ever met and has so many amazing qualities, but he has the lowest self-esteem of anyone I've ever met. This poem is specifically referring to when he has a panic attack, which he has fairly often, but he hates how anxious he is. It doesn't bother me at all and I really want him to understand that.
With you I think he could overcome some things and if you ever want to discuss relationship ideas I'm free to ask. I think a lot about relationships since I do not have anyone intimate wise.

Can't get enough
This crew is my "go to shirt" and wears amazing. They wash well and dry quick. I am 5"3, 125 lbs and Med. fits great. The best baselayer you will own.
Great 1st layer
This shirt was awesome out on the Aspen slopes. It is lightweight and feels great, fits great - super thin so no bulk under your next layer. I wore this, a light fleece and my ski jacket in 20 degree skiing and it was perfect. Highly recommend.
I'm looking into buying this for my mom...
I'm looking into buying this for my mom for her to wear under something else when she's outside in the early morning when it's chilly. we're from So. CA so I'm not exactly sure how you would properly layer clothing when it's cold in the morning because it doesn't get subzero cold, but for us Californians it feels cold. Would this be a good base layer to wear under something else? Could you also recommend what you could typically wear over this layer?
These are great to wear under any clothes, because they are thin, but will hold up way better than other "silkweight" layers. Not the warmest base layer (Rho LT)but very thin. For a next layer, look at the Delta jackets (if your wearing a wind-resistant outer layer) or a softshell like a Gamma SV Hoody or Easyrider (which have warm high-loft fleece inside)for good weather resistance without a lot of other layering required.

WILD BLACKBERRY HONEY 16 oz. (that is one pound!) $14.
Fantastic honey is like a superb wine: sophisticated, complex, distinctive. Oprah Magazine
About Our Honey
Bees produce honey from the nectar of blooming plants, but the nectar produced by one flower will be different than that of another flower. Our mission is to seek out distinctive California flora which produce honeys that have the qualities in aroma, taste, texture and color reflective of their particular species of flower.
All of our Branches honeys are gathered directly from the hives and bottled unpasteurized, thus maintaining the multitude of health benefits associated with honey that are often lost in traditional commercial honey from overheating to eliminate crystallization.
Please note: crystallization is normal for unheated and unfiltered pure honey such as ours, but honey is good forever because its antibiotic properties keep it from spoiling. You can improve the quality of crystallized honey by placing the opened jar in hot water bath and stirring it until it liquefies.
About Wild Blackberry Honey
As many of you know, it has become increasingly difficult for the fantastically hard-working honeybees to gather the nectar from dwindling floral sources given the continuation of the drought in California, the ongoing impact of Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD) and the increasingly harmful effects of habitat loss. But for the moment, life is good
as we can, for a limited time, offer you this very popular honey again.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS: With a distinctive fruit flavor, this honey will make a wonderful spread for warm toast and muffins or a good addition to marinades and dressings or for use in baking.
Order a case of 12 Branches preserves or honey (including mixed cases) shipped to one address and receive a 10% discount...Enter the discount code BRCASE in the appropriate box, (it's below the comment box on the 'Payment Information' page!) and the discount will be reflected in your online invoice.

True to the spirit of the original film, "Monsters Inc.", and matches its tone. But it never seems content to turn over old ground.
The animation is photoreal – startlingly and mesmerisingly so. And the depth of feeling the tale of their friendship evokes is matched only by your incredulity, as you paw at your eyes six minutes later, that you are crying about two computer-generated umbrellas.
The visuals are impressive, while the goodhearted and endearing story is a little slight.
What hasn't advanced is the plotting, which was nothing special last time and is so formulaic now that it's basically surprise-free.
Monsters University is a prequel that is far more conventional, not nearly as witty or clever as that original.
Monsters University feels not like the work of artists eager to express something but like that of likable pros whose existence depends on getting a rise out the kids. It's like the scares Sully and Mike spring on those sleeping tykes: technically impressive but a job un-anchored to anything more meaningful.

I don't know why, but I felt powerfully attached to Monsters(skip to the last paragraph for a concise one-sentence summary and a number)
I don't know why, but I felt powerfully attached to Monsters University. It may be because Monsters Inc. was one of my favorite Pixar movies of all time. It may also be because I am currently around the age of our protagonists, so I can attest to their struggles. Or maybe, just maybe, it's because Mike Wazowski and James Sullivan are the best frenemies to hit the big screen since Pixar's older Woody and Buzz.
Mike Wazowski is determined, but at a disadvantage, since he isn't scary. James Sullivan is laidback, but at an advantage, since he's scary as hell (he's also legacy, but I'd rather not rant about legacy kids on a film critique). So why is the banter between these polar opposites so amusing to children and adults alike? It's because they're both a little obnoxious. They've got enough sour taste in each other to animate the screen almost as well as the crisp-clear animation software used to make the film (which is seriously praiseworthy).
Technique-wise, the film rarely fails. Sure, the plotline may be a little formulaic and linear, but the plot twists are just enough to keep both the story and the character development moving. Even near the end of the film, you'll find some sappy emotion we've come to expect from Pixar.
In conclusion, this is what I have to say: Monsters University is not only the best and most charismatic animated film of the year thus far; it is also a testament to Pixar's glory years and a sign that maybe Cars 2 and Brave were just a depressing phase that Pixar is hopefully passing. (I'd also like to laud Helen Mirren's character, Dean Hardscrabble. She is one tough cookie you'll both enjoy and fear watching)

Jan 6, 2016For Pixar, Monsters University stops the bleeding. In the wake of two disappointing films, 2012's lackluster Brave and 2011's misfire Cars 2,For Pixar, Monsters University stops the bleeding. In the wake of two disappointing films, 2012's lackluster Brave and 2011's misfire Cars 2, the animation company has returned to solid footing with a prequel to their 2001 entry, Monsters Inc. Although there is undoubtedly a financial foundation for mining past successes, Monsters University is nevertheless a charming, family friendly endeavor and, although it falls short of the best Pixar has brought to the screen over its long association with Disney, it's nevertheless worth a trip to the theater, especially for kids.
As was true of Monsters Inc., Monsters University gets most of its mileage out of the atypical friendship between the big, furry Sullivan (voice of John Goodman) and the little green Cyclops Mike (Billy Crystal). Since Monsters Inc. effectively wrapped up going-forward story possibilities, the creative team elected to go the prequel route, so this is the tale of how Mike and Sullivan met, overcame an initial rivalry, and became friends. Although pitched at a level that won't bore adults, the film's content is kid-centered, complete with life lessons about the values of friendship, cooperation, and believing in oneself and others.
Monsters University's plot thrives on predictability although there is a moderately surprising twist toward the end that allows the proceedings to extend by about fifteen minutes and provides an opportunity for a little more depth. For adults, the movie is less about narrative than enjoying the back-and-forth repartee of Mike and Sullivan, who have all the chemistry of, say, Felix and Oscar. These two are mismatched buddies in the classic sense and Billy Crystal and John Goodman have no difficulty sliding back into the roles they originated a dozen years ago. And, although Monsters University will appeal strongly to young viewers, it's not juvenile in its approach or content. As a result, those who enjoyed Monsters Inc. as children need not be ashamed of being "uncool" by watching Monsters University in their teens. (G-rated movies are generally shunned by anyone over age 12 who isn't a parent.)
Computer generated animation has long since reached a plateau level where the artwork results in the kinds of "oohs" and "aahs" that it once did. We rarely notice the richness of detail evident especially in the background the way we once did because every animated film boasts this - it's expected. Monsters University maintains the standard of quality expected from Pixar although, as is too often the case, the incorporation of 3-D is of dubious value. Seen in 2-D, this is a bright, cheerful motion picture. The tradeoff for getting things to pop off the screen is that the colors aren't as vibrant. I feel like a broken record making this comment: some animated films benefit from 3-D but it's hard to argue that Monsters University is one of them.
Pixar's decision to develop some of their most popular movies into franchises hit a rough patch when Cars 2 failed to perform up to expectations. Monsters University, however, makes the argument that this may have been an unfortunate exception. Although the second Monsters movie won't challenge Toy Story 2 or Toy Story 3 as the best sequel to emerge from the studio, it's a strong enough animated film to rise to the top of summer family-friendly fare. The energy and comedy are strong and the only thing off-color is the palette when seen through 3-D lenses. This isn't a home run for Disney/Pixar but it's a solid double.… Expand

Axel-In-Charge: Navigating the "Civil War II" Landscape, Bringing DMC to Marvel
Comic Books
Creators | The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland has named its first Cartoonist in Residence: Cameron McPhail, who left his job in 2002 as chief executive of wealth management at the Royal Bank of Scotland to become a full-time cartoonist. He and his colleagues in the Kartoon Faktory collective will produce books about the animals in the zoo and possibly a comic strip as well. [Edinburgh News]
Censorship | During a panel at Comic-Con International, members of the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund criticized a student's attempt to have four graphic novels banned from her college campus. Crafton Hills College student Tara Shultz and her father, Craig Shultz, have called for Fun Home, Persepolis, the first volume of Y: The Last Man, and the second volume of The Sandman, all of which were included in a course on the graphic novel as literature, to be removed not only from the course but also from the college bookstore. The school has refused. CBLDF director Charles Brownstein noted that this is part of a troubling new trend: Graphic novel challenges at the college level. The CBLDF has been involved in 18 college cases so far this year, up from 10 in all of 2014. [Redlands Daily Facts]
Creators | "Opus's [voice] came screaming back at me — true— when I faced those four empty panels that I hadn't done since 1989," cartoonist Berkeley Breathed told Michael Cavna, explaining why he is returning to his comic strip Bloom County after a lengthy absence. He also discusses the possibility of self-publishing rather than going with a newspaper syndicate: "Dead-tree media requires constancy and deadlines and guarantees. This flattens the joy. It also presents a huge income. It's an interesting trade-off, isn't it?" [Comic Riffs]
Commentary | David Brothers critiques Marvel's plans to publish hip-hop themed variant covers, given that none of the newly announced creators for Marvel titles are black. [i am davidbrothers dotcom]
Creators | Kate Beaton talks about her family, webcomics, princesses, and her pony character's guest appearance on Adventure Time. [Time]
Manga | The first printing of One Piece, Vol. 77, may have dropped below 4 million, but its sales aren't slacking. According to Japanese market research firm, the latest volume of Eiichiro Oda's hit manga has sold nearly 1.67 million copies since its release on Friday, more than seven times that of the No. 2 title on the weekly sales chart, the 67th volume of Tite Kubo's Bleach. That's marks a new weekly sales record for the year, surpassing the 67th volume of One Piece, which sold 1.6 million copies upon its release in January. [Crunchyroll]
Crime | Sigolène Vinson, a writer for Charlie Hebdo, gives her account of the Jan. 7 shootings that killed 12 at the French satire magazine's headquarters. Vinson was in the kitchen and heard brothers Chérif and Saïd Kouachi shoot her coworkers; she hid in a colleague's office but came face to face with Saïd Kouachi, who told her "Don't be afraid, calm down. I won't kill you. You're a woman, we don't kill women. But think about what you do, what you do is bad. I'm sparing you and because I've spared you, you will read the Qur'an." (However, Chérif killed writer Elsa Cayat, the only female victim of the attack.) [The Guardian]
Awards | This year's grand prix de la ville d'Angoulême, the lifetime achievement award given every year at the Angoulême International Comics Festival, won't be given to the staff of Charlie Hebdo, despite a petition started by jury president Gwen de Bonneval that garnered 1,200 signatures plus significant support on Twitter and Facebook. Two Charlie Hebdo cartoonists, Wolinski, who was killed in the Jan. 7 attack, and Willem, who wasn't in the office that day, have been awarded the grand prix in previous years. The festival has announced a special Charlie Hebdo award that will go to a cartoonist whose work embodies resistance to oppression and censorship, and organizers will also publish a special album of cartoons drawn in response to the attacks. [France Inter]
Legal | The Malaysian cartoonist Zunar is being investigated once more under the country's Sedition Act, his lawyer revealed Tuesday. Three of Zunar's assistants were arrested last week for selling two of his books, neither of which has been officially banned, and his webmaster has been summoned to talk to police on Thursday. Zunar has also been called in for questioning at a future date. What's more, the Malaysian Home Ministry has appealed the Court of Appeals' decision to remove the ban on two of Zunar's other books. [Malaysia Chronicle]
Publishing | Red Giant Entertainment has announced that retailers ordered about 900,000 copies each of its four anthology comics, which are ad-supported and will be given away for free. The company, which also releases digital comics and paid print comics, kicked off this program with a package of four zero issues on Free Comic Book Day. [ICv2]

Police already have several videos of the incident, in which a driver plowed into the crowd, injuring at least three people, but they are hoping to get additional information. [Fox 5 News]
Legal | A Tokyo District Court judge sentenced Hirofumi Watanabe to four years and six months in prison for sending more than 400 threatening letters to venues connected with the manga Kuroko's Basketball. The 35-year-old man admitted during his first day in court that he had sent the threatening letters, but he also refused to apologize or pay restitution and says he does not feel guilty. [Anime News Network]
Events | An extensive exhibit in Taipei, Taiwan, devoted to Eiichiro Oda's One Piece manga and anime has drawn more than 100,000 visitors since its opening on July 1. Overseen by Oda, the exhibition is the first of its kind outside of Japan, where it was held from 2012 to 2013 to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the insanely popular manga.

Creators | Stan Lee arrived at Sydney Airport for the Supanova Pop Culture Expo and was immediately presented with a "Captain Australia" shield, colored gold and green rather than red and blue. The Supanova Pop Culture Expo kicked off today, and continues through Sunday. [The Daily Telegraph]
Comics | Hussain Al-Shiblawi says he doesn't usually mind the pamphlets he regularly receives from the local Bible Baptist Church in Roanoke, Virginia; even though he's Muslim, he finds them inspirational. But he takes strong exception to the latest one, a Jack Chick tract titled Unforgiven, which claims that all Muslims are going to hell. The pastor, who declined to go on camera, says his church doesn't create the pamphlets, it just distributes them, but he's willing to meet with Al-Shiblawi to discuss the comic. [WDBJ News]
Comics | The Lussier family of Barrhaven, Ontario, will be offering more than 25,000 comics for sale June 7 in their garage to benefit the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario. The Lussiers not only collect comics, they use them as part of their homeschooling curriculum, and when a comics shop in New Hampshire closed last year, they bought 20,000 comics from the owner; they also buy comics online. "We use comic books to really teach kids about life, and about finances and about debt," said father Rob Lussier. Their collection includes The Incredible Hulk #271, which has appreciated quite a bit in value because it contains
the first an early appearance by Rocket Raccoon, who's featured in Marvel's upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy movie. Still, 12-year-old Alexandre is philosophical: "If the movie is good, [the value] will go up, but if it's really bad, it might just plummet." [Metro]
Conventions | The organizers of the Supanova pop culture festival in Melbourne, Australia, triggered a social-media firestorm after removing a comic by artist Scarlette Baccini from her table because of explicit sexual content. The festival has a strict ban on pornography, and other adult material must be kept sealed and away from children. One of the organizers stopped by Baccini's table, flipped through her Jesus Reloadeth'd, and saw a drawing of two men having sex, so he removed the comic. Baccini posted about the incident on Facebook, triggering accusations of homophobia against the event organizers. However, they responded that the issue was the explicitness of the image, not that it depicted two men. [SameSame]
Manga | While at the Angouleme International Comics Festival, I had a chance to study the French manga market and talk to some of the publishers. Manga represents more than one-third of the French comics market (last year, there were more new manga releases than BDs), and sales and production dipped for the first time last year. [Publishers Weekly]
Comics | Gary Cox rounds up reactions from refugees to the Australian government's online comic that warns them not to try to enter the country without a visa. "The people who are coming here are not economic migrants, they're coming to have a safer, peaceful life here," says Ibrar Hassani. And an advocate for refugees pointed out that the images of refugees suffering in detention centers were evidence that the government is deliberately mistreating them. [SBS]
Comics sales | ICv2 crunches the January numbers and calculates that just one comic, Batman #27, sold more than 100,000 copies in January, something that hasn't happened since August 2011; this follows a weak December in which only three comics broke the 100,000 mark. The retail news and analysis site also lists the top 300 comics and graphic novels for the month. [ICv2]

Digital comics | Apple rejected 59 comics this year for in-app buying, although many of them were allowed into the iBookstore. I looked at the phenomenon, and talked to Image Comics Publisher Eric Stephenson about the effect that had on Matt Fraction and Chip Zdarsky's Sex Criminals, which is available via the comiXology website and Android app, iBooks, and Image's own website, but can't be bought in-app from comiXology's iPad app. ""It absolutely hurt digital sales on Sex Criminals #2," Stepheneson said. "This is a series that is getting fantastic word of mouth, it's amazing work by Matt and Chip that is receiving rave reviews and selling out instantly. Not being able to offer the book to curious readers through our app or the comiXology app is a significant deterrent to reaching the widest possible audience." [Publishers Weekly]
I missed out on Pat Grant's debut graphic novel Blue when it was initially released in 2012. But now that Top Shelf has the book back in print, I got in touch with the Australian writer/artist to learn more about the 96-page book, described as "a fascinating blend of autobiography and fiction with a sci-fi twist." The story has an interesting mix of several elements, including teenagers surfing, aliens with tentacles, conflict, bigotry and a quest for a dead body — all of which just scratches the surface of this ambitious work.
Publishing | Lions Forge Comics announced a partnership this morning with NBC Universal to create digital comics based on five television series from the 1980s and 1990s: Knight Rider, Airwolf, Miami Vice, Punky Brewster and Saved by the Bell. The comics will be released on a variety of e-book platforms, including Kindle, Nook and Kobo, but there was no mention of comics apps such as comiXology. [USA Today]
Publishing | Denis Kitchen's Kitchen Sink, long a packager whose comics were published by others, will now be an imprint of Dark Horse, releasing four to six books a year. The imprint will include art books, reprints of archival material, and new graphic novels; it will kick off with The Best of Comix Book: When Marvel Went Underground!, a collection of works from the Marvel magazine, which was edited by Kitchen and Stan Lee.
