"Great Family Time at the Beach"
Relaxed and revitalizing-- what a way to reconnect with our family. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Topsail. The house was clean and comfortably furnished. It had everything we needed. The beach is wide and clean and where we spent the majority of our time. The decks on both the sea and sound sides were inviting and offered great views. We watched the boats and dolphins every morning.
There are lots and lots of stairs in this house! If you have difficulties with climbing steps, please look elsewhere. We decided it entitled us to dessert because we were getting so much extra exercise!
This house has plenty to keep the children busy on rainy days- please get a new net for the ping pong table- we would have loved to had one there.
We were a little disappointed to find the hot tub with no lid, and full of sand and therefore unusable. Unfortunately, the "no-see-um" bugs were plentiful, and not very good at swimming. The hot tub was full of them. A discussion with Treasure Realty resulted in them returning the $70 charge for the use of the Hot tub, not really the answer we hoped for, but fair. It might be time to update some of the photos of the house. We expected there to be a highchair, because there was one in the photos. Apparently, the children in the owner's family have outgrown it and is no longer there.
We would visit this home again.

Hi Julie,
Thanks so much for your review. I am so pleased to hear that you all had a relaxing and revitalizing time here on Topsail! I do apologize that we weren't able to get the vendor out to service the hot tub so you could enjoy it during your stay. I know that was disappointing, and I am so sorry. We have suggested that the owner choose a new vendor to service the hot tub, so hopefully, this won't be an issue much longer. I'm glad to hear the stairs afforded you the opportunity to indulge in some extra dessert! ;-) With regard to the photos, all of the pictures of the properties on our website have been taken within the last couple of years. I'm not sure what happened to the high chair pictured, but I wish you had let us know that you needed one. We would have been glad to help you out with that and with the ping pong net. In any case, we will share your feedback with the owners, and see what we can do. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience with us. Let us know when you are ready to book again: 800-762-3961.
"The best beach for families"
Upon arrival the house was not clean and the hot tub was broken. Treasure realty took care of our issues promptly and we were able to enjoy the nice big house and the relaxing hot tub. My favorite feature was the screened in porch on the lower level. My family had a great time watching the dolphins from the top deck !

"3000 Island Drive"
House was nicely furnished. Lots of steps helped burn off all the food we ate. The hot tub did not work at all. If the hot tub would have been working, I would give this property a 4 star.

Hi Greg,
I am happy to hear that you all enjoyed your stay in this lovely home. I know what you mean about all the steps on island homes, and I am glad to hear that you had a positive and healthy view of them! Lol! ;-) I am so sorry that we were not able to get the hot tub working for you during your stay. If you haven't already, you should be receiving a reimbursement for that. Please give us a call if we can assist you further: 800-762-3961.

"Peaceful Week"
This is a really good house in a great location. We have stayed here twice in the last few years and there never seem to be people nearby on the beach. There were typically only 2 other people for about 150 yards in each direction. The house is not as pristine as some others ones that I have seen, but it is certainly in good enough shape. There was a roof leak that a roofer was working on while we were there. The hot tub was also unfortunately out of order for our visit. I think it just needs a little TLC from a handyman for a few days. Otherwise, we like this house and will probably come back. It has a nice big back deck and there is nothing like having an oceanfront house.

Dear Eamonn,
Thanks for your kind review. I am glad that you all enjoyed a peaceful stay despite the roofing work going on while you were there. You should be receiving a refund for the hot tub. I am so sorry we were unable to get it working while you were here. In addition, I have shared your feedback regarding TLC with the homeowner. Please give us a call if we can assist you further: 800-762-3961.

"We enjoyed our visit"
The living quarters were clean and serviceable. The baths were clean but outdated. The outside of the house needs work...several storm doors were broken, trash/debris in the yard. The most disappointing was the game room. It was dirty and broken. We would not return.

Hi Nick,
Thanks for your candid review. I am glad to hear that you enjoyed your visit despite the shortcomings you endured. I do apologize for the broken items and the trash in the yard. Our records indicate that we were able to send our vendors out to take care of the items about which you notified us. With regard to the broken and dirty game room, these are some of the items that we will require the owners to attend to during the winter months. So, with that in mind, hopefully all of your concerns will be resolved before the start of the next season. Please give our office a call if we can assist you in planning your next visit: 800-762-3961.

"We did not get what we paid for."
This particular Treasure Realty property was totally misrepresented. When we reserved this property for our family vacation it was stated as having a game room complete with air hockey, foosball, ping pong, and pool. The airhockey table did not work, the ping pong table was broken and unusable, and there were no balls to play foosball. Not to mention there was so much mold and mildew growing in the basement, that had there been usable game room equipment we could not have stayed in the basement for any length of time to play the games.
The additional bunk room off the game room that we had planned to have 3 boys sleep in was also unusable for sleeping due to the mold and mildew growing in the basement. Basically we paid for a game room and a bunk room that we were expecting to be able to use on our vacation but were not able too.
Treasure Realty did try to fix the problem by putting an air fresher and moisture absorber in the basement but that in no way fixed the problem to let us fully enjoy our vacation. We are waiting on Treasure Realty to reimburse us a partial refund but still have not heard from them.
I would not rent a vacation home from Treasure Realty in the future for the fact they are misrepresenting the properties they rent and are not responding in a timely manner to reimbursing us for amenities we paid for but were not able to use.

Hi Katie,
Thanks for your review. We were so sorry to hear that you felt you did not get what you paid for during your stay.
Sometimes, it does take more time for us to process those satisfaction reports and the reviews than we would like, but we are striving to address them as efficiently as possible. Before responding, I decided to pass your review along to our customer service manager, Bill, since you were already familiar with him. I believe he has adequately addressed your concerns about misrepresentation versus malfunction and misinterpretation. It would not be advantageous for Treasure Realty to misrepresent homes, since this would negatively impact customer satisfaction and future rentals. Our photos and virtual tours demonstrate our efforts to give our customers as much accurate information as possible. We encourage our patrons to look closely at the photos and contact our office if they have questions about specifics.
With that said, rental properties sometimes have unforeseen issues that arise and guests are inconvenienced or underwhelmed, so to speak. You should have received the partial refund and discount that Bill was able to offer you for the shortcomings you experienced. Please let us know if you have not received that. Again, we apologize that things were not ideal during your stay, and we sincerely appreciate your patience and your patronage. Please give us a call if we can assist you further: 800-762-3961.

"Family fun in the sun with great beach access."
Great location. Condition of the house and funrnshings was acceptable. The home was nice, not as clean as our previous Treasure Realty experiences. Pretty bad gnat problem, had to buy baits. Beds were uncomfortable. We had to do a lot of cleaning to settle in.

Commack NY
After 13 hours of driving in the rain we began putting away our supplies only to find bugs in the kitchen. We had to wash every plate, bowl and fork. we had to clean every counter, table and handle. Twice Treasure reality had to be called to spray the home. We spent the week only thinking about bugs. We could not get a different house. The response from Treasure was to offer $100.00 off the next years rental. We were 9 year repeat customers. We have not been back to topsail in 4 years and have no plans of returning.

Ellicott City
"Island Drive 3000"
This house has a perfect location and there's nothing better than relaxing in the hot tub looking out over the ocean. In fact, the outdoor spaces were the best part of the place. The interior was all right, but could really use some sprucing up. Everything was just a little worn and a little dated. The room arrangements were good, although the little bunk bed room was kind of odd. All in all though, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

This house we were very disappointed in. This was our third year choosing a house from Treasure Realty and this house was the worst. The house was not clean by anymeans. There was dust and spider webs in all the corners and stuff growing on top of the fridge. Non of the amentities shown in the pictures were worth a darn, the sand chairs and toys were mostly broken. The shower curtains both had mold growing on them. When we reserved the place the pictures showed a grill that was working, when we got there the grill was broke and no one would come and replace it without us paying a fee. If we would have known it was busted we would have brought our own. Very disappointed.

Hey Guys...I apologize for any shortcomings. Though I cannot find the record of you renting this property in June of 2011, I still want to do a bit of research and see if there is anything I can do to help make things right. I am sorry you thought the grill was expected. It should have been removed from the property before you arrived. As indicated in our rental agreement, we have found that the best way to really ensure a good, clean, and functioning grill is to rent one from a local vendor. I hope you did call us, since we would certainly bring out shower curtains and will always send the cleaning team out to remedy any deficiencies. Again, I apologize that these important items were missed. Please call me and let me help try to find you a great value for your next trip down. Thanks. Bill. 800-762-3961

"This house was ok."
The house was furnished decently. The oven did not work properly. There were broken light bulbs in the light fixtures. The screened part of the porch needed repair. The open kitchen/dining/living area was spacious. There was a hottub on the property that was advertised with the house but no where was it mentioned that there was an additional fee for hot tub use and how much it was. We learned that when we checked in. The game room was dark and had a musty smell. Not very inviting. All in all the property had great potential to be exceptional but it fell short.

"Had a great time, but stayed busy cleaning after the girls."
The Freezer was broke when we got there, every thing froze to the bottom. I think I got blamed for it, because
I gat a letter stating we did some damage. I work hard to make sure that did'nt happen. I call to talk to someone about it and left a message that never got returned. I wont rent from Treasur Realty again because
I think that no matter what, we lose our deposit.
Thank-you for this chance to voice my opinion.
Oh and there was dog treats in the chair by the sliding class doors upstairs.

"Beautiful Location"
We loved waking up to the sunset in the morning. We would get our coffee or tea and sit in the hot tub each morning looking at the ocean and watching our dolphins that swam by each morning. The home was very nice with plenty of room for all of us. In the future we will not rent a home with a kithcen on the top floor though due to my father's knee problems. The steps were just too much for him. I would highly recommend using the linen services. We were dissappointed with the lack of air-conditioning in the lower level game area. We were unable to enjoy the pool table due to the stifling heat.

Dear Monroe/Welker Family,
Thanks for your review. I am pleased to hear that you enjoyed your 2011 stay. I do regret to hear that your father had a hard time with the stairs though. As you are probably already aware, we do have several properties with elevators if that helps.
I appreciate your feedback about the AC in the garage/gaming area. I will pass that along to the owner; I'm sorry to hear that it was too warm for you all to enjoy. Had you notified us about that during your stay, perhaps we could have provided fans or a portable unit for you. It is our pleasure serving you and we appreciate your patronage. Please let us know how we can assist you in planning your next visit to Topsail: 800-762-3961.

From the moment we arrived at the rental, it was bad. We called immediately about approximately 20 bags of trash(flies!!) that were piled up near driveway. A while later, a man came to pick up what he could (5 or so). The carpets were disgusting, under couches was gross, boards broken on steps to beach, hot tub was full of sand and cold, there was a broken mirror in a small trashcan, which all contained blood. I called many times during week, talked to someone as we checked out (she was not interested) and wrote you a 2 page letter with the complaints. No one came to fix the problems the entire week...after we were told you would. And, no one followed up with a response from my letter. We would not recommend either the rental property or your company.

Falsehood or Untruth?
Guidon, N., Pessis, A. -M., Antiquity
In December 1993 Brazilian, European and American researchers joined forces in Sao Raimundo Nonato, Piaui, Brazil, to analyse the state of research on the peopling of the Americas (conference proceedings in press).
The article by Meltzer et al. (1994) is based on partial data and false information (highlighted below). Its battery of questions takes us by surprise; none of the three colleagues came up with these questions during the 1993 meeting - mounted precisely to generate direct dialogue on the peopling of the Americas. We disagree with their statement, 'the comments on Pedra Furada are not offered lightly' (p. 696). The commentaries are worthless because they are based on partial and incorrect knowledge.
We believe that the initial intention of the authors was different; they got carried away into an exercise in academic style, from a fragile scientific base of fragmentary data and with a scepticism born of a subjective conviction. We differ; in our approach, a systematic analysis must be based on confirmed facts, make explicit its presuppositions, and indicate parameters of acceptance for proofs. Stylistic enthusiasm makes the authors forget that in the field of prehistory nothing is definitive; working with vestigial data, we do not have a real universe but only fragmentary series. We must work in an interdisciplinary way, the data supplied by different specialisms contributing to full explanation. Nothing is static in this field; a scientific honesty must exist in which data that exist and data which are lacking are analysed with equal care and rigour. Meltzer et al. do not possess 10 years' worth of excavation results. They are not specialists in the Pleistocene archaeology of tropical regions, as becomes evident when one reads their observations. Emphasizing their qualifications and experience, they do not take the curricula of the Pedra Furada team into account.
Errors of observation
The Pedra Furada excavations were completed under the direction of Fabio Parenti, who studied all the vestiges and data for his Ph.D thesis (1993).
In the caption to figure 1 (p. 697), it is stated that the site 'occurs at the base of the escarpment'. This is wrong. It is 19 m above the valley floor, as is correctly stated on p. 703.
In the caption to figure 2, Meltzer et al. do not indicate the site is protected by an overhang (cf. their figure 4), evident in the central part of the photograph. And they do not point out the two waterfalls visible in the photograph, clearly on each side of the site.
An error (p. 697) arises from Meltzer et al.'s inexperience of large sites in tropical regions relatively recently submitted to climatic change (12,000-10,000 years ago). They report a declivity, visible in the stratigraphy, 'from the front to the rear of the shelter'. In areas of the shelter where the fall of blocks altered the stratification, the slope is from outside to inside. But in the great part of the site, the inclination is from the inside to the outside [ILLUSTRATION FOR FIGURE 1 OMITTED].
In a large shelter like Pedra Furada, the site history is not uniform. It was precisely the fall of the blocks which ensured, in certain areas, the Pleistocene layers have not been disturbed.
Meltzer et al. say (p. 697), 'Along the shelter wall the chutes are marked by pronounced manganese staining.' How could they know by simply looking this was manganese staining? They neither say that these stains are limited nor undertake a correlation between these stains and the excavated areas. The excavators have taken into consideration possibilities of disturbance where these stains were found low down; these have been duly registered.
Pot-holes exist under the waterfall at the west of the site, but none has been 'obscured by a cement column' (p. 697). The columns were constructed in holes made by masons in the base-rock or in the back wall. The walkway is suspended over the pot-hole, where it has no support columns. …

BridgeSTOR has launched two new additions to its family of application optimized storage (AOS) products: the BridgeSTOR AOS High Density DPM Storage Appliance (for Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager) and the AOS High Density Network Storage Appliance.
These two new BridgeSTOR AOS appliances enable DPM and iSCSI/NAS users to reduce their storage capacity needs by up to 75 percent. BridgeSTOR accomplished this reduction by incorporating a specialized processor that operates in the data path to perform inline data deduplication and compression before storing the data on the disk drives. For high availability applications, optional dual-active configurations are also available.
These appliances also have a much smaller data center footprint and require only one-quarter of the power and air conditioning of traditional storage products with equivalent capacities.

Catriona Stewart, Columnist/reporter / / Lifestyle
BLUSHING bride Georgia Hardringham led the way as her bridal party raced to launch the Scottish Wedding Show.
And ahead of this weekend's event, exhibitors have revealed the latest trends in the wedding industry - from edible lace cakes to 'marryoke'.
With more than 300 companies taking part, the show is a major event in the Scottish wedding calendar.
Angela Smith, the event's manager, said: "Twice a year we gather the UK's best in class exhibitors under one roof to make the SECC the ultimate one-stop-shop for brides and grooms-to-be.
"Up to 300 exhibitors will be on hand to give couples their top trends for weddings in 2014."
Held at the SECC from February 22 to 23, the show also features the more traditional bridal displays.
But it keeps up-to-date with the quirkier aspects of Scottish weddings.
Wedding planners claim that 'flip books' have taken over from the traditional wedding favours. These animated books are one of the newest trends and are becoming more and more popular at receptions.
Greg Anderson, managing director of the Blue Parrot Company, said: "A Funflip camera takes a series of frames and then prints the photos into a fun, personalised flip book, creating a great snapshot of the day for your guests to take home."
But the most popular new trend, according to organisers, is marryoke, which is now replacing the traditional wedding video.
Guests each take a line of a chosen song and perform it to camera, creating a pop video the bride and groom can keep.
Tickets for Scotland's largest wedding event and more information are available from www.thescottishwedding show.com or by calling 0141 587 6088.

CA – Judy Greer Signs
March 25, 2014 by Colin Solan
Filed under Animation, Horror, Movies, Signing and Appearance Profiles, Television
Judy Greer appears at Book Soup on Thursday April 17, 2014 at 7:00 pm to discuss and sign her new memoir I Don't Know What You Know Me From: Confessions of a Co-Star.
About the book:
ou know Judy Greer, right? Wait, what was she in again? The Wedding Planner, 13 Going on 30, 27 Dresses, The Descendants. Yes, you totally recognize her. And, odds are, if you're like most women in America, you feel like she's already your friend. Thankfully, Greer has finally written a book of essays about all the moments, topics, observations, and confessions that you would hope to hear from your best friend. How a midnight shopping trip to CVS can cure all? What it's like to have stepchildren? And how she "really" feels about her mother? Yes, it's all in there. But Judy Greer isn't just a regular friend-she's a celebrity friend. Want to know which celebs she's peed next to? Or what the Oscars were actually like? Or which hot actor gave her father a Harley Davidson? Don't worry–that's included, too. Besides being laugh-out-loud funny, you'll love her because she makes us genuinely feel like she's one of us. Because even though she sometimes has a stylist and a make-up artist, she still wears (and hates!) Spanx. Because she starts her book like this: "This is who I am. This is what I think about things. This is stuff that happened to me, that could have just as easily have happened to you. I'm not that special, and we're probably not that different. I think I am really lucky to be where I am in life, but I've never really lost that feeling that I don't fit in, and if you have, will you please email me and tell me how you did it? I'm serious."
About the Author
Judy Greer was born in Detroit and studied at The Theatre School, DePaul University's prestigious theater conservatory program. She is one of the most prolific actresses of her time, appearing to date in over eighty roles across film and television. Greer recently starred in the Oscar-winning film The Descendants and will next be seen in the remake of Carrie. No stranger to the small screen, she voices Cheryl (Carol) Tunt on the cult hit Archer and can currently be seen in Arrested Development as Kitty Sanchez. On stage, Greer recently made her Broadway debut in Dead Accounts. She stars in her own Yahoo! series called Reluctantly Healthy. Greer currently resides in Los Angeles.

Melissa Joan Hart signs at Book Soup on Wednesday November 6, 2013 at 7:00 pm!
Press Release:
Melissa Joan Hart explained it all–from dating to bullies–in her groundbreaking role as Clarissa Darling on "Clarissa Explains It All." She cast a spell on millions more viewers as "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch." Now, in Melissa Explains It All, Melissa tells the frank and funny behind-the-scenes stories from her extraordinary past and her refreshingly normal present. Melissa has been entertaining audiences most of her life; when there were no girls named Melissa on her favorite show, the forceful four year old decided she'd get on TV her way. From that moment on, Melissa has shown a singular determination and focus–whether it's for booking three national commercials so her dad would build her a tree house or for nailing the audition for "Clarissa." From her first commercial to her current starring role in ABC Family's hit "Melissa and Joey," Hart never let fame go to her head. She always had one foot in Hollywood and one foot in reality–and still does. Melissa Joan Hart explains all that she's learned along the way–what's kept her grounded, normal and working when others have not been so fortunate–and that she's the approachable, hilarious girl-next-door her fans have always thought she'd be.

Comments Off on CA – Babylon Confidential Signing
Claudia Christian discusses and signs her new memoir at Book Soup on Tuesday January 15, 2013 at 7:00 pm.
When actress Claudia Christian flees a troubled childhood and moves to Hollywood at age 17, she steps through the looking glass into another world. From the set of "Dallas" to her starring role on the sci-fi series "Babylon 5," Claudia's affairs with billionaires, supermodels, rock stars, and celebrities are mixed with shootings, stalking, heartbreak, and betrayal. Onset and off, drama follows Claudia–an alcohol-fueled coke run and makeout session with a bridesmaid on her wedding day; her tempestuous, love-hate relationship with actor Angus Macfadyen; the conspiracy theories surrounding her ex-husband's death; and a 20-year on-and-off relationship with billionaire Dodi Fayed before he dated Princess Diana. Hollywood life takes its toll on Claudia as she descends into alcohol addiction and a desperate battle to reclaim her life. Rehab, alternative treatments, and even hypnotism can't break the cycle of alcohol abuse that threatens to destroy Claudia. Close to despair she discovers The Sinclair Method, a treatment that saves her life. Sometimes shocking, often humorous, always captivating — Babylon Confidential is a story of hope that will inspire and enlighten you.

Fort Stanwix National Monument is a United States National Historic Site in Rome, New York, managed by the National Park Service (NPS). The current fort is a reconstruction of the historic Fort Stanwix occupying approximately 16 acres (6.5 ha) of downtown Rome. The fort site—although not the reconstruction itself—is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
Fort Stanwix is historically significant for the successful American defense of the fortification in August 1777, a defense that proved a major factor in blunting a British invasion from Canada during the Saratoga campaign. The fort was also the site of the Treaty of Fort Stanwix (1768).
Besides the fort reconstruction itself, the national monument includes three short trails that encircle it, one of which follows a portion of the Oneida Carry. The Marinus Willett Collections Management and Education Center preserves the monument's 485,000 artifacts and documents, displays exhibits about Fort Stanwix and the Mohawk Valley, and serves as a regional tourism center.[3]
Administrative history[edit]
President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed enabling legislation that created the national monument on August 21, 1935. During the 1960s, Rome city leaders lobbied for a fort reconstruction as part of an urban renewal program to help revitalize downtown Rome. Under political pressure from Senator Robert Kennedy (D-NY), who was seeking political support in upstate New York, the Park Service reluctantly agreed to build a reconstruction of the Revolutionary War-era fort.[4]
The Park Service completed a master plan for Fort Stanwix in 1967, and in 1970, the NPS began a three-year archaeological investigation. Reconstruction of the fort began in 1974, and the partially completed structure was opened to the public in time for the United States Bicentennial celebration in 1976.[5] The current reconstruction—an earth-and-timber-clad, reinforced concrete structure surrounding three freestanding buildings—was completed in 1978.[6]
From 1976 until the mid-1990s, the national monument explained the significance of the national monument to visitors using first-person interpretation to portray the fort immediately after the siege (1777–78), emphasizing life during the American Revolution. More recently, third-person interpretation has extended visitor understanding to the French and Indian War as well as the role played by the fort during the negotiation of a series of treaties with Native Americans.[7]

And the soundtrack to the party came, appropriately, from Dylan's catalogue, with tunes like "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35." Ledger, meanwhile, stayed at the party until the very end.

|Method and System for Aiding Environmental Characterization by Ultra-Wideband Radiofrequency Signals - The invention relates to environmental characterization on the basis of an Ultra Wide Band (UWB) radiofrequency communication network. Pulses are emitted and the waveform received is compared with predicted waveforms corresponding to well determined interactions between the wave and its environment. The comparison is done by searching for maximum temporal correlation. The interactions can be notably reflections of the wave on walls or obstacles. The deformations are very dependent on the nature of the materials and directions in which the pulses are emitted and received. If predicted waveforms are stored for various pairs of direction of emission and of reception, it is possible through these correlation operations to find where a wall which gave rise to a reflection is situated.

I purchased the stroller second hand and the foam on the handle was damaged. I was able to find a replacement handle online and it was delivered quickly. The stroller is as good as new.

The product is good. However, installation would be far easier with a bit of instruction. Even a little piece of paper with a web address that shows you how to install it. It's been sitting in my garage for several weeks because I havny figured out how to install it yet.

I was pleased that the site was able to guide me so easily towards the correct model and the part I needed. I wasn't especially pleased that the part required replacement as the stroller sees infrequent use.

|Ben Kingsley stars as the Mandarin in "Iron Man 3"
Kingsley brings a new level of menace to Iron Man's iconic villain, and when "Iron Man 3" hits theaters on May 3, 2013 you'll be able to check him out in his full glory!
As always, stay tuned to Marvel.com for more on the film, and like Iron Man on Facebook and follow @iron_man for the latest on "Iron Man 3"!
Marvel's "Iron Man 3" pits brash-but-brilliant industrialist Tony Stark/Iron Man against an enemy whose reach knows no bounds. When Stark finds his personal world destroyed at his enemy's hands, he embarks on a harrowing quest to find those responsible. This journey, at every turn, will test his mettle. With his back against the wall, Stark is left to survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him. As he fights his way back, Stark discovers the answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man?
Starring Robert Downey, Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, Rebecca Hall, Stephanie Szostak, James Badge Dale with Jon Favreau and Ben Kingsley, "Iron Man 3" is directed by Shane Black from a screenplay by Drew Pearce and Shane Black and is based on Marvel's iconic super hero Iron Man, who first appeared in the pages of TALES OF SUSPENSE #39 in 1963 and had his solo comic book debut with THE INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #1 in May of 1968.
"Iron Man 3" is presented by Marvel Studios in association with Paramount Pictures and DMG Entertainment. Marvel Studios' President Kevin Feige is producing and Jon Favreau, Louis D'Esposito, Stephen Broussard, Victoria Alonso, Alan Fine, Charles Newirth, Stan Lee and Dan Mintz are executive producers. The film releases May 3, 2013, and is distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures.

Even Obama's guru, David Axelrod, agrees Obama was overexposed, comparing it to how the Chicago Bears relied on legendary running back Walter Payton for everything. It "was Payton left and Payton right and Payton up the middle," he told New York magazine. "It became kind of a dreary game plan. (In Obama) we have one of the great political performers of our time. But I think we degraded that to some degree by using him as much as we did in the ways we did."
The problem with the analogy: Payton was overused because he delivered. There's not a lot of evidence that Obama can be counted on to advance, never mind score, whenever you give him the ball. Nearly all of his victories have stemmed not from presidential persuasion of the opposition or the public but from relying on the congressional Democrats' majority. He gave 52 speeches on health-care reform in 2009. It never got more popular. It passed because he shopped out health care to Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, who relied on legislative skullduggery more than presidential leadership.
The fact that Obama's decision to intervene in Libya has produced no rallying around the president might also indicate that he should keep his head down. Or it might show that his bizarre approach to the conflict is as confusing to average voters as it is to everyone else.
Obviously, Obama fervently hopes the economy will at least "feel" a lot better by 2012. But that's a big if, given high unemployment and underemployment as well as the decline in real income and home values. Even if we get the jobs, Obama will have a hard time answering the "Are you better off now than you were four years ago?" question.
I understand why Obama is lying low. What's less understandable is why so many Republicans are scared of him.

The defender admits the Gunners gave the German side too much respect when they met last season but hopes his team-mates have learned from that experiencePer Mertesacker believes Arsenal "need two perfect games" to knock Bayern Munich out of the Champions League.
Arsenal was knocked out in the round of 16 last season by Bayern and Mertesacker hopes his teammates have learned from their exit from the competition.
"We have to go for two perfect games against them. We know we can beat them now, so maybe mentally we are in a better condition that last year," Mertesacker told reporters. "We respected them too much in the first leg then, so it was too easy for them. Maybe we have learned something from those lessons and will do better this time.
"Now we have another chance — and an opportunity to beat the champions. We want to achieve something exceptional this season, so we have to beat the best. That is not only Manchester City and Chelsea. That is Bayern Munich in the Champions League."
