Six Decades of 'Godzilla' Movie Posters

You may have noticed a sudden surge in Godzilla lately. Where before there was nothing (and by nothing, I mean a single teaser and a handful of posters), now there is a Godzilla bounty everywhere you turn. Trailers, preview screenings, stupidly brilliant Snickers ads, dessert plates, and all manner of...
The Original Japanese Cut of 'Godzilla' Is Heading Back to U.S. Theaters to Educate an Ignorant Public
- By Nathan Adams

- February 18, 2014
Godzilla movies are considered to be something of a joke to mainstream audiences in the States. Most people here probably haven't even seen the original Godzilla from 1954, and only get their knowledge of the character from watching bits and pieces of the cheesy and innumerable sequels that used to...

My name is Mike and I am a senior in high school. I am on the varsity baseball team and we work out three times a week. However, on the side I like to do curls. Their is a problem, though. Ever since summer when I do curls on my right arm (I only use weights ranging from 10lbs.-45lbs.) I feel a "stress" in the top bone of my elbow. This is hard to explain...but when I flex my biceps (like this way: http://www.pcimagenetwork.com/muscle/p6.jpg) I feel tension in the top bone area. There is no tension in my left arm/elbow when I do it on that side...it just feels a lot different after doing curls for both arms. It almost seems like I'm getting work done in my left bicep while I'm not in my right....I dunno, I am a pitcher who throws right-handed so maybe all my pitching plays a part in this. It's not a pain where I have to stop, but it's bugging the hell out of me.
Hopefully I didn't make things too complicated and someone can help me out.

We were so happy that DD able to attends a school's toddler program.
It is one teach to 4 kids and looks since very friendly and nice. The schedule and tuition just fit us right.
My husband dropped DD off in the morning and he always see staff A but not staff B. I always pick up DD in the afternoon; I always saw staff B but not staff A.
Few days ago, when I picked up DD, the staff B told me that my husband was disrespect to the "director" who open the door that day because the staff A was out sick. (the staff B never meet my husband and she wasn't in there while my husband and the director was talking)
The staff B also told me that a lot of people saw my husband disrespect the director and the school has a long waiting list so it is not good for us. I was shark and said sorry about it and I will try to find out what happen.
After two hours worried, my husband came home from work and I asked him what happen. He was surprised that they told me that. He said when he dropped our DD, as usual he went down to her eyes level and kiss good-bye to her. The director said: you shouldn't do that, you should just leave." My husband made a disagree face and said:" why? I usual do that to my DD when I drop her off at school". the director said:" I have more than 25 years' experience, and the way you did will just let your DD think here is a not safe place to stay."
Well, That is the very first time the director meet my DD since she attend the school 3th week. My dd never cry went my husband dropped her off. The staff B told me my DD very good to observed the new place and not as the other kids.
The second day morning, my husband dropped my DD and able to talk to the director again since the staff A still sick out. They cleared thing out and going fine.
later the day the director called me because I was left the massage to her when the day things happen and I wasn't reach my husband .
When I told the director what happen the staff B told the story...the director said immediately:" you are making thing up!! The staff B even wasn't there how can she tell you what happen." then she goes on and on about I am a drama maker, because I always send the intents e-mail everyday....
Actually the e-mail is about I ask them help to leave my daughter's sipping cup out where she can reach because she has serious constipation problem. Or DD not eat her food at school but as soon she be home, she eat a lot. She need people to assist her to eat and she not able to eat along since she was only 18 months. She looks starving when she got home...
Conclude of the conversation. With the director...she said my husband has issue with women and think the staffs just nanny (it is not truth!) she understand English is my second language so maybe the e-mail not come out the way I mean (yes, my English is not good but I try to be a good mother) we are all nice people and let us has a fresh start. You have a sweet DD and whatever you are doing to her it is working. We are really glad to have her at our school.
I am happy that thing can saddle down and give my DD a peace place to stay.
But the other hand I am thinking how can stand people said I made things up (I am a layer?) and drama maker. So as said my husband has issue with the women and disrespect the staffs. It make take me a while to over it or I should start looking the other place for my DD.

Donald "Theo" Holmes has spent 44 of his 65 years on earth locked in jail or prison on a litany of different charges. The other 21 years he's spent either committing the crimes that landed him in jail or impregnating women and girls--he's now the father of 22 children (that the law knows about). So as his latest decade-long stint in the slammer comes to an end and he nears being released back into the wild, King County prosecutors are doing whatever they can to put the breaks on Holmes' discharge, claiming that this "psychopathic sexual predator" should be locked up forever.
Prosecutors have sought to have Holmes confined at the state's Special Commitment Center, a Department of Social and Health Services facility on McNeil Island. To do so, they'll have to convince a judge or jury that Holmes is a violent sexual predator because of a psychiatric problem.
Holmes' fate would have been sealed were it not for his life sentence being thrown out in 2004 when an appeals court tossed out five child-rape and molestation charges against him.
Holmes describes himself as a "womanizer" and brags about having "mothers and daughters pregnant by me in the same house." He's also apparently been shot twice and stabbed three times--at least one such attack coming at the hands of a jilted lover.
Matthew H. Logan, a psychologist hired by the state of Washington, describes him thus:
"He uses women and children to feed his sexual desires, and he uses other members of society to supply him with money, clothes, and cars that make him look important and fuel the grandiosity which is an ingrained part of his personality," Logan said in documents filed with the court.
"He admits to multiple sexual conquests and is proud of the fact that he has 22 children and that he has had mothers and daughters . . . pregnant at the same time with his child," the psychologist continued. "This is a man whose crime spree ran for 35 years, abated only by short prison terms, and who now has only been ground to a halt by the walls that contain him."
If prosecutors are successful in denying Holmes release, he'll be held at the Department of Social and Health Services facility on McNeil Island until he's deemed to have been sufficiently treated to go back into society.
Such a release would be unlikely, however, as the vast majority of McNeil Island residents are held for life.

Rheumatoid Lung Disease
This group of lung diseases can include scarring in the lungs, fluid in the chest, nodules in the lungs, or other problems. It's rare, but the drug methotrexate, which many people with RA take, can also cause lung problem.
Symptoms: There aren't always warning signs, but if there are, they may include cough, shortness of breath, or chest pain. You can ask your doctor if you should get a chest X-ray or other tests to check for any problems.
Treatment: The first step is to control inflammation. Your doctor may need to drain fluid around your lungs. If you have interstitial lung disease, your doctor may prescribe steroids or other medications to reduce scarring. If scar tissue has built up in the lungs, it will stay, but medications may slow down the damage.
Vasculitis (Blood Flow Problems)
Vasculitis is inflammation of the blood vessels. It's most common in advanced RA.
The amount of damage depends on the size of the arteries affected. Inflammation of small and medium arteries, like those that lead to the fingertips and nails, can harm skin and tissues. When vasculitis hits larger arteries, it can lead to nerve damage, problems using your arms or legs, or it can hurt the internal organs.
Symptoms: These vary, depending on what part of the body is affected.
Treatment: Because vasculitis often means that RA is more severe, your doctor will focus on getting your RA under control. You may need even more intense treatment.
Not everyone with RA gets depressed, but depression is not unusual in people who have RA.
Symptoms include:
- Deep feelings of sadness, anxiety, emptiness, hopelessness, worthlessness, and guilt
- Loss of interest in things you once enjoyed
- Insomnia
- Trouble concentrating or making decisions
Treatment: Many people talk with a counselor and take antidepressants, if needed. If you have symptoms of depression, tell your doctor. That way, you can work together to figure out the best treatment for you and get started ASAP.
In this condition, bones are fragile and thin, making them more likely to break. People with RA are more likely than other people to get osteoporosis. RA itself may cause bone loss, and so can some medications, such as steroids. Also, if RA pain makes you less active, that may make you more likely to get osteoporosis.
Symptoms: Bone density tests can tell you if you have it. Otherwise, you might not know until its late stages, when people may have back pain, stooped posture, a curved upper back, and fractures. They may also lose height.
Treatment: Steps to treat and prevent osteoporosis include these: Eat a diet rich in calcium and vitamin D, do weight-bearing exercises such as walking or lifting weights, quit smoking, and limit alcohol. If needed, there are also medications to treat and prevent the condition.

Found these two in the most recent issue of SI.
1. Since taking Pettitte in the 1990 draft the two home grown pitchers with the most wins are Phil Hughes (56) and Joba Chamberlain (24).
2. Derek Jeter has played 2722 career games. Only one of them his team was not mathematically alive for the postseason. Sept 26, 2008. That's nuts.

Good afternoon to everyone. Looking at the aesthetic landscape, while we're still being impacted by depressed economy, the aesthetic skin care market now and in the future remains a dynamic environment. Our first quarter net sales of $22.6 million were on the lower end of our guidance, we were pleased overall with the performance when taking into consideration the economy couples with historical normal softness in Q1 following a seasonally strong fourth quarter.
Regarding our views of the current and future industry, there are simple fundamentals one should not lose sight of. We have a growing aging population. Billions of dollars continues to be spent by consumers and patients seeking ever better skincare solutions. New neurotoxins and dermal fillers have recently and will continue to be approved and enter this market place. We believe these will provide a stimulus for future growth by driving increased consumer awareness and bringing more patients into the physician's office in search of better and alternative ways of improved aesthetic outcomes.
In such an environment, we remain confident that our clinically proven efficacy, industry leadership in physician dispense, and value price point position us well for the remainder of 2009 and beyond. Supporting our current resiliency and greater stability versus more expensive cosmetic procedures, we continue to see strong new account growth with more than 329 accounts added during the quarter. Further, Nu-Derm sales were down only 6% versus recent market data indicating neurotoxins, derm fillers, and laser procedures were down 13% to 16% for the same period.
As of March 31, 2009, the number of active accounts totaled approximately 5800, up 8% from a year ago. This continues to demonstrate that physicians are actively seeking additional revenues by incorporating a topical physician dispensed business within their existing clinical practice. We believe our products and systems continue to be one of the easiest user friendly, yet still highly effective skin care therapies.
Further, we worked diligently to get Rosaclear launched earlier in the year because we believed we had a great system that fills an unmet need among men and women who are challenged by the facial redness associated with rosacea. Rosaclear was introduced late January and contributed $1.3 million in net sales during the first quarter. Rosaclear has been widely and enthusiastically received in its first 100 days since launch. 28% of our customers have already purchased Rosaclear which is a very good initial indication from our customers. With an estimated 14 million people who suffer from the associated facial flushing and redness of rosacea, we believe this is a unique opportunity for us to treat a new Asian population with a new Obagi system while leveraging our existing salesforce and current account base.
By geography, domestic sales represented 80% of revenues, yet declined 10% during the quarter. Our international business showed progress, but was not immune to the global economic downturn with sales down 14%. This was particularly prevalent in Japan, where we saw a decrease in licensing fees of roughly $400,000 due to economy and a delayed product launch. As we look forward to the launch of our Elastiderm product line into Rohto's drug store distribution channel later this year and the anticipated future launch of the more science and clinically based product line into the Prestige Department Store channel.
Also internationally, we have added 8 new distributors for Elastiderm in the first quarter covering Russia, Ukraine, the Netherlands, China, Hong Kong, Australia, Vietnam, and Combodia. As a result, we are in a much better position in our international markets than we were a year ago to capture share and revenue growth as demand returns to normal levels. Of note, in Far East Asia which I visited last quarter, we recently launched in China, Hong Kong, Vietnam, and Cambodia and our Q1 business was up significantly with initial stocking sales of over $1 million.

Dessa's tour van burglarized in Buffalo
Dessa's tour in support of her latest solo album, Parts of Speech, took a devastating hit Friday in Buffalo. After their performance at the 9th Ward at Babeville, their tour van Mountain was burglarized. Computers, cameras, merch, and tour earnings were among the items taken.
Because they are a resilient bunch, the tour will go on. But Dessa and co. are asking for help to get back up to full strength. An Indiegogo campaign has been launched, and the funds will go to help defray the losses from the burglary. Update: The $30,000 goal has been reached!
Here's a note Dessa posted:
Last night after our show in Buffalo, our tour van was burglarized. We lost computers, camera gear, some merch earnings, and parts of the crucial equipment for our set.
We visited the Buffalo police station, filed incident reports, and checked into our hotel room at just past 4 a.m. We convened for a brief band meeting. During this meeting--as if on cue--the hotel lost power. Joey opened the drapes to let in some street light. Did we want to cancel the rest of the tour? We didn't. Could we pull our show back together in a day? Almost, yeah.
We've decided to forge ahead without canceling any shows.
As most of you can probably guess, indie tours are financially challenging in the best of circumstances. But, money aside, this sort of thing can just be damn demoralizing. As the leader of this band, I hate to see my guys missing gifts from their wives and finding themselves--after weeks of hard work and hard travel--worse off than when they left.
That said, my team has impressed the pants of me (I still have pants) in the last 12 hours. Nobody yelled or threw things or said 'fuck you, I'm leaving.' Everybody shared what they had and started making plans to get this roadshow in working order again.
As part of those plans, I'm starting this tour page. Its immediate purpose is to help Ricardo, our photographer, repurchase his gear that was stolen. Ricardo documents these tours as a labor of love and the theft hit him particularly hard. We're determined to get him the tools that he needs to return to his day job ready to work. If you'd like to pitch in on his replacement gear, and ours, here's place to so.
Thank you to everyone who's attended a show so far.
Thanks to everyone we'll meet in the next two weeks.
Screw the dudes who broke into our van.
As you can see,
the campaign reached its goal in just under two days! Get more informationhere
, regarding serial numbers for the stolen laptops.
Even with the funding goal now reached, the generosity of Dessa's fans extends even further. Her contact lenses disappeared in the burglary, so a New York fan lent the singer a pair of glasses to wear on Sunday.

Good stuff for a stuffy beak.
After 73 years of competitive swimming my mucous membranes are so sensitive to chlorinated water that even during a short swim the swelling stops my ability to breath through my nose. These clips do the job - Can't lose them if they come off. The color is just right - doesn't look goofy. They are comfortable, easily adjusted and inexpensive.
Loon Lake, WA
Report abuse
Your comment has been posted.
I lap swim 3-4 times a week, and can't stand water getting up my nose. I've used other nose clips with much difficulty, this design is perfect for me. They don't slip off my nose and if they did they would only be around my neck. I'm so tired of retrieving the other metal clips from the pool bottom, because I lose them while swimming, I've tried two different sizes with no success, but the Finals Nose Plug works great for me. I highly recommend this nose clip.
Rhode Island
Good product
So far so good. It stays in place for me and keeps the water out of my nose. I dont really care for the strap but I guess it would come in handy if the nose clip came off during a race or something. After a while (about an hour) it does start to hurt, but that is what I have found from other nose plugs. Overall great product and great price.
nose plugs that stay with you
I like these nose plugs because they are comfortable and stay with you when you don't want them on
The Finals Nose Plugs
I use them for swimming in an indoor pool with heavy traffic. They work reasonably well. I appreciate the strap because they do slip off my nose. Would buy again.

good product
used for daily lap swim. The long band helps to keep track of them.
Nice noseplug
Does the job
Melville, NY
Not for me
Did not fit my nose. Did not seem big enough for my nose. Air still escaped therefore water would get in. Found ones that fit better.
Bass Harbor, ME
Was Worth a Try at This Price
Does not stay on nose tightly, but at least it is on a strap and I do not have to dive for it when it comes off.
West Linn, OR
perfect nose clip for me
I wear this nose clip for 1 hour vigorous lap swimming that includes a multitude of flip turns and backstroke sets. Prior to getting these I suffered from numerous severe sinus infections. My physician recommended I try them. After much experimentation this style was the only one that stayed on my nose. Works perfectly.

GUAVA TREE Psidium sp
The Guava Tree is a sweet, fragrant tropical fruit ranges in size from a small egg size to that of a medium apple. To eat raw, guavas should be very ripe. They make excellent jams, preserves and sauces. Guava trees are very attractive with blotchy patched bark in greens, browns and creams. They have pretty fluffy flowers and are ornamental whether in fruit or flower. Guavas are ideal for use as fruiting hedges, landscaping trees and as ornamental potted specimen trees where they will be happy to produce masses of fruit. The strawberry guava is more suited to smaller gardens because of its compact growing habit.

The Struggle of the American women of having their rights for the freedom of political participation in such country has been realized. Since the country's political condition is in a rapid growth, American women have found their consciousness dealing with the struggle of the women emancipation that is not simply bonded in the matters of the citizen law but, furthermore, of the struggle for the true women emancipation such as, the men's subordination treatment of women in a family, the struggle against the unfairness to the women's rights and obligation in a family and against the discriminative treatment in the work environments. That is the perspective of what the American fight for in 1900's when the wave of industrialization was getting higher and finally involving the women for joining in the industrialization era.
In the other side, the women participation in such industrialization had been systematically and structurally manipulated by the society, or we may say the men. The injustice experienced by, especially, the American women in the early American industrialization up to the beginning of the World War II was caused by the misperception and the point of view of the citizens toward the existence of sex and genre concepts. Concerning to this case, Fakih gives an understanding about woman focusing on sex and genre distinction (1996: 3). Conceptionally, genre is an interchangeable characteristic among men and women and tends to be more cultural. However, the sex concept is simply a matter of physical distinction of men and women.
As one of literary works, a novel has a particular attractiveness to observe and Danielle Steele's Wings is the chosen one for it has a hidden interesting 'strength' that steals the writer's deep concern to have it observed to be a thesis.

So, I have an anterior placenta with this pregnancy. I also had an anterior placenta with my stillborn. I was just curious if other people had anterior or posterior placentas and am wondering if that plays a part at all in cord accidents.
Anterior Placenta?

I had an anterior placenta with my son, and he was born nice and healthy. From what I've been told an anterior placenta has absolutely nothing to do with a cord accident, so try not to worry about it. I think you'll just have to be a little more diligent with your kick counts, since an anterior placenta can make it more difficult to feel your baby kick. Good luck!

I don't know if you are familiar with Dr. Jason Collins of The Pregnancy Institute, in Louisiana. He has been researching the issue of Placental and Umbilical Cord Issues for over 20 years. According to research by Dr. Collins and like minded Obstetricians throughout the world, the placenta and umbilical cord should be visualized for structure, location and normalcy during your 20 week ultrasound. If you are concerned ~ you can always give him a call and get his opinion...
Big Hugs,

Makes: 2 dozen
Cooking Time: 30 min
What You'll Need:
3 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 3/4 cups milk
1 egg
1 cup vegetable oil
4 to 5 apples, peeled, cored, and cut in 1/4-inch-thick round slices
1 cup confectioners' sugar
What To Do:
1. In a large bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, milk, and egg; mix well.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil until hot but not smoking. Dip apple slices into batter, one at a time, then place in oil.
3. Cook 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until golden on both sides. Drain on a paper towel-lined platter.
4. Place confectioners' sugar in a shallow dish. Carefully dip hot fritters in sugar, coating completely. Serve immediately.
