See The Zero Theorem Poster That Was Banned For Nudity
By Mack Rawden 2 years ago comments
Hey, remember when the MPAA heroically saved us all from seeing too much of Eva Greens nipple on the Sin City 2 posters? Well, those same heroes are back, and this time, theyre saving us all from seeing Christoph Waltzs bare butt in the new poster for Zero Theorem.
Its at this part of the story where Id normally tell you to be careful if youre at work before scrolling below, but Im honestly not sure there are any bosses in the United States who would can someone for glimpsing a butt crack from a million miles away. So, as you can see, I went ahead and embedded it at the top of the article. Because its not over the line at all.
Still, the MPAA apparently thought different, and they informed poor director Terry Gilliam about the news earlier this month. He took to his Facebook to bitch about the decision, and as you can see if you clicked on the link, Mark Zuckerberg and company apparently agree. The poster is still up and shows no signs of being taken down, despite the fact that the powers that be at Facebook have proven to be overly cautious censors over the years.
Zero Theorem follows a computer programmer who is tasked with hunting down the titular formula that may or may not prove the existence of life. It takes place in some kind of futuristic world that looks like a cross between Idiocracy and Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory, and judging by Terry Gilliams standard operating procedure, Zero Theorem will likely be extremely polarizing.
Fortunately for all involved, the film will get marketed, despite the ban. Instead, itll just get the shiny little poster seen below
It makes sense that an organization would take the time to make sure the movie posters we see in theaters arent way over the line. There are children around, and they dont need to see hardcore nudity. That being said, there has to be some common sense involved. Theres nothing wrong with the Zero Theorem poster at the top of this story, and theres nothing wrong with the Eva Green one that was banned earlier this summer.

While Seth Rogen and Zac Efron are the two promoted stars of "Neighbors," and get the bulk of the screentime in this new, lengthy red band trailer for the comedy, by all accounts it's the perpetually underrated Rose Byrne who walks away with the biggest laughs. In our review of the movie out of SXSW, our own Drew Taylor noted, "she nearly steals the entire movie, and certainly gets the surprise comedy MVP award." And it's good thing the rest of the movie looks like a lot of fun too.
The premise of this one is pretty simple: a young family moves into their new home, only discover they've got a frat house as neighbors. And it isn't long before a war erupts between the two sides and all hell breaks loose. And it looks like it's really just an excuse for one antic fuelled adventure after another, and that's fine by us if the laughs are frequent and big, and given the buzz out of Austin on this one, it certainly seems to be the case. Are we looking at the first big comedy hit of the summer?
"Neighbors" opens on May 9th. Check out the U.K. and U.S. red band trailers below. [Live For Films]

How to Give a Crush a Gift Without Letting Him Know You Like Him
You have a crush on this great guy,and you really would like to give him a gift. At the same time, you do not want him to think you are giving it to him, because you 'like' him in a special way.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Wait for a special day, either a graduation or a holiday, or even the last day of school. Buy several gifts for a few of your friends, and buy one for him. Give them all out at the same time, so he won't think you bought one especially for him.
2Hand out your gifts, and when you give 'him' his, make sure to make eye contact, pause a minute, and smile.
3Make sure each gift is of equal value, and is something that each person would really enjoy having. Do not make his special or more expensive than the others.
4Start a friendly conversation with him, when he thanks you. Do not sound too eager, or he may realize that you really like him.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- Try having a friendly contest with him such as, for example, book reading contest, say if he wins, that he gets whatever you want to give him (try not to make it so expensive) and if you win whatever you want, lose on purpose and then give him what you want to give him.
- Give him something you know he likes, like a football if he wears lots of jerseys, or a video game you know he likes.
- Give him the typical gifts like a CD or something you made or a video game he likes etc., so he does not think you went to a lot of trouble thinking of what to buy him.
- No matter how you play it, he might still take the gift as a sign that you like him.

Doctors' Little Helper
The last time Orpah Keaton saw her son alive, he was begging for help. Artis Graham had been hospitalized for six days following a violent altercation with the St. Paul police on October 12, 1998. Graham had led the cops on a high-speed car chase after they attempted to pull him over on suspicion of a drug violation. The 35-year-old had a long history of psychiatric and drug problems, and an IQ measured at just 76. The chase ended with Graham being beaten over the head with a flashlight after he allegedly attempted to grab an officer's gun.
That evening in the hospital, however, it was Graham's right leg that was troubling him. In the previous two days he had complained to medical staff of pain and numbness. Graham could not walk; his temperature was 101 degrees and his blood pressure was high. Despite these warning signs, according to Keaton, the nurses on duty that night dismissed Graham's leg pain as a figment of his imagination.
"It just ripped my heart out," Keaton recalls from her home in Roseville, tears welling in her eyes. "He thought that I could get them to help him and I couldn't. I asked them to help and they laughed at me. They literally laughed at me."
Later that night Artis Graham died of a heart attack precipitated by a blood clot in his right leg. "In my opinion he got no medical care," Keaton laments. "He got no medical care at all."
In 2000 Keaton filed suit charging that her son's death was the result of medical malpractice on the part of the staff at Regions Hospital. The lawsuit specifically alleged that Graham's fatal heart attack would have been prevented if he had received adequate medical care.
The justice system has been no more responsive to Keaton's allegations than the nurses who were on duty the night her son died. On October 31, the medical malpractice portion of Keaton's case, which was being heard in U.S. District Court by Judge Mark Doty, was dismissed. Despite sworn affidavits by three medical experts stating that Regions Hospital had been negligent in its care of Graham, the judge ruled that the case did not merit a trial. (A separate allegation contained in the lawsuit, that St. Paul police officers violated Graham's civil rights, is still pending before Judge Doty.)
"It was like my son had been taken again," Keaton says. "It was like the system, and myself, had failed him again. I was not able to tell his story, to tell the truth."
Keaton's story is not an anomaly. In recent years, as Minnesota courts have added interpretive detail to a vague 1986 statute aimed at eliminating nuisance medical malpractice lawsuits, they have made it increasingly difficult for plaintiffs to get their cases heard in front of juries. The number of medical malpractice cases filed in Minnesota has dropped from 237 in 1997 to 127 for the 12-month period ending in September of this year--a 46 percent decrease. "I don't know what medical malpractice case can survive," claims Keaton's attorney, Kenneth Udoibok. "I don't see how any case can go to a jury in medical malpractice."
He is not alone in criticizing the courts' interpretation of the law. "People are being re-victimized," argues Chris Messerly, a medical malpractice attorney at Robins Kaplan Miller & Ciresi. "People who are victims of medical malpractice are now victims of the judicial system in that they're deprived of their day in court."
The legal decision that provided much of the basis for dismissing the Keaton suit, Teffeteller v. University of Minnesota, was issued by the Minnesota Supreme Court in June. That suit involved the case of Thad Roddy, a 14-year-old boy who died of a morphine overdose in 1997 while being treated at the University of Minnesota Hospital. (Roddy had been hospitalized due to a bone marrow transplant undertaken to treat his leukemia.) The Supreme Court, in a 3-2 decision (two justices didn't participate in the ruling) written by Justice Edward Stringer, upheld a lower court dismissal of the suit on the grounds that Roddy's key medical expert witness had not possessed adequate credentials.
What's striking about the Teffeteller case is the pedigree of the medical expert whose testimony was rebuffed. Before retiring in 1998, Dr. William Perloff served as medical director of the University of Wisconsin Children's Hospital in Madison for 16 years. He is currently chair of the Wisconsin chapter of the National Center on Child Fatality Review. But the Minnesota Supreme Court declared his credentials inadequate because he didn't have direct practical experience with bone marrow transplants.
Perloff scoffs at this characterization of his medical background. He asserts he directly supervised the care for all bone marrow transplant patients at the Wisconsin Children's Hospital who became critically ill. "In this case my qualifications are directly applicable in training, as well as experience and expertise," says Perloff. "I'm astounded that reasonable people could doubt the applicability of my expertise to this particular case."
The other reason offered by the Supreme Court for throwing out the Teffeteller case was that Perloff's testimony failed to lay out an explicit causal link between the hospital's medical negligence and the patient's death, as is required by state law. This too appears to be based on dubious reasoning. In a sworn affidavit, Perloff stated that the medical staff at the University of Minnesota Hospital failed to diagnose the patient's problem as morphine toxicity, leading them to provide inappropriate treatment. The affidavit concludes: "It is Dr. Perloff's opinion that the departures from accepted levels of care, as above identified, were a direct cause of Thad Roddy's death."
Perloff is angry that the case was not allowed to proceed to trial. "In this case I felt there was a true injustice done," he says. "An unfortunate injustice, obviously not intentional, but still pretty grievous."
David A. Larson, a law professor at Hamline University and a former medical malpractice defense attorney, likewise believes that the Supreme Court's reasoning in the Teffeteller case is flawed--but for a different reason. Larson argues that the justices misconstrued the relevant question regarding the adequacy of Perloff's expertise. "The fact that the Supreme Court characterized it as a bone marrow transplant problem, as opposed to a morphine toxicity problem, is critical to their opinion," says Larson. "And I think that you can really argue that it's an inappropriate characterization." (Supreme Court justices are prohibited from commenting on their opinions.)
Larson believes that because of this faulty reasoning--and because the opinion was rendered by a divided, partial court--the future damage of the Teffeteller case as it relates to the adequacy of expert testimony will be limited. But Teffeteller is just one in a long line of opinions handed down by the Minnesota courts interpreting the 1986 medical malpractice law. Over the years, the courts, in their haste to get rid of frivolous cases, have steadily increased the burden that must be met by plaintiffs before getting their day in court. "If you interpret this test so restrictively, you will knock out lawsuits," says Larson. "The question is, Are you knocking out legitimate lawsuits as well as frivolous ones? That's the fear."
Rodger Hagen, an attorney with Meagher & Geer who frequently represents medical facilities accused of malpractice, concedes that it has become more difficult to get a jury trial in such cases, but he contends that legitimate complaints are still receiving a fair hearing. Udoibok thinks otherwise. He believes that the Supreme Court is engaging in "judicial activism." "The Teffeteller case is a clear example in which the justices exceeded what the legislature could have contemplated," he charges.
Udoibok took Orpah Keaton's case on a contingency basis. He estimates that he's spent $60,000 of his own money preparing for trial and is uncertain if he'll take on such cases in the future. "I don't want the insurance companies and those who think people should not have access to the courts to succeed, but I also have to evaluate what cases I take in light of economic reality," Udoibok reasons. The end result will likely be that people who cannot afford to pay for legal representation up front will find it much more difficult to find an attorney.
Orpah Keaton's lawsuit is still alive in federal court on charges of civil rights violations by the St. Paul police officers who arrested her son. In the years since his death, she has been active in publicizing cases of police brutality. She helped found the organization Communities United Against Police Brutality and currently serves as its president. Keaton is not optimistic that she'll ever get relief from the courts. Her only solace is divine justice.
"I'll have the last laugh at the end because God will be the last judge of it all," she says. "Artis is already in peace. But they're gonna have to find their peace."

ARCHIE AND JUGGERNAUT by JayFosgittWatch
©2008-2016 JayFosgitt
This is just a goofy idea that came to me about a week ago. Most of my ideas come from silly wordplay. I dig the classic version of Archie from the 40's far more than his modern interpretations, so I went with that old school look for him. And the idea of big ol' dangerous Juggernaut wearing a vintage Jughead hat just seemed to funny to pass up. If I had my druthers, I could make this the coolest Archie Comics/Marvel Comics team-up since Archie Meets The Punisher back in the 1990's (I own a copy). But at any rate, this was fun to make.
Now why can't Marvel make comics like this? Great idea, Mister Fosgitt.
I could totally see this happening. Thanks for a good laugh
Looks like something the webcomic Hello With Cheese would do. Nice work.
I didn't know Archie comics was that old. Now I want to look into it.
Ah, the Archie comics with Juggernaut. Now with more horrible murder!
Oh Juggernaut! *womp womp wooooooommmmp.*
Juggernaut vs Jughead, who can eat the most hamburgers.

I love this. Both the work and the idea.
Yep! That definatly sounds like ol' Cain!
Hey, did you know that Jughead's hat is based off of the hat's that mechanics and electricians wore in the '30s and '40s?
I thought it was based off of the alterations boys would make to their fathers' old fedoras. Instead of throwing them out, boys would flip the brim and trim it cuz it was just the fad of the day. Then factories started making them. Whoopee Caps, yes? I swear Archie did a comic about the hat's origin. Did mechanics wear them, too?
ohmigawd. this is soooo groovy. I dig the retro 40's style too!
funny and well done
Well at least they can eat in class now.
This is ten times better than Archie Meets the Punisher. Seriously. I love this sketch. I just laughed until I choked.
Thanks so much (though I apologize for making you choke)! =0)
That is just....words cannot describe the hilarity of that image.
I lost my copy of the Archies/Punisher crossover, dammit! But I love this gag--Jugheadnaut. Deadpool, in his four issue limited series, even made that joke: "Jugheadnaut? Is that the guy who finds the Archies? Because if it is who I think it is, game over, I quit, Mom's calling me, I'm late for dinner!"
hahahaha funny
hahahahahahahha I couldnt stop of laugh xD
Clever and really well executed! This gave me a good laugh.
I meant jugger; jugglenaut would be my second family, apparently. o_O
Save my words, one day I shall be Mrs. Jugglenaut :~
Brilliant, just brilliant.
Ha! Delicious.. Faving this rare find.
Don't that fool know who he is? He's the Juggernaut, bitch!
this is just funny!
*Cackle* This is utterly awesome. First time I've cracked up at a picture of Archine in AGES.

Thanks! Glad my cartoon had that effect on you!
Ha, its nice to see him moderately funny again. For about as far as I can remember our bathroom has always had a huge stack of these comics. My parents used to collect them as teenagers
Haven't read too many of the new ones though (although mostly, the art and bland writing puts me off )
Haven't read too many of the new ones though (although mostly, the art and bland writing puts me off )
fucking brilliant
fucking brilliant
Oy, that's why you never come between Jughead and his food. 0.0
This wins harder than most things that win hard!
Is it wrong that thething I find most amusing thing in this entire picture is the fact that the juggernaut is wearing Jugheads hat?
That was pretty funny although I don't see Juggernaut eating hamburgers.
This is nothing but a hackneed, lame gag.
...and I love it! The style is campy, the dialogue is perfect, and Juggy's stance just makes me wanna piss myself laughing.
Great stuff, truly great.

Randy Weston
Long before there was a commercial concept of "world music," Randy Weston sallied forth from his Brooklyn origins and immersed himself in the vast panoply of African cultures, specifically seeking the links between traditional African music and American jazz. What he found resulted in a luminous body of work, both innovative and visionary, based on the spiritual heart they share. As a pianist he was influenced early on by Duke Ellington, Art Tatum, and especially Thelonious Monk, and they still resonate in his lush compositions. But Weston's genius lies in that reconciling of jazz with African elements, giving particular prominence to the rhythms, and creating rhapsodic music that's exotically alluring and entwined with the soulful essence of a continent and its tendril spirits. Over the years Weston has played in many different formats and collaborated with a vast array of musicians, from the Gnawas of Morocco (where he's been a longtime resident) to Chinese masters of the pipa. Now in his early 80s, he recently returned to a trio setup for the first time in 30 years. In this rare local appearance, Weston will lead his African Rhythms Trio, which includes bassist Alex Blake and Neil Clarke on percussion. $30 at 7 p.m.; $20 at 9:30 p.m.
Mondays, Sundays, 7 & 9:30 p.m. Starts: Feb. 17. Continues through Feb. 18, 2008

Bunny Blast Yucca
Perfect for a bunny's nature to
chew and forage. This light weight soft Yucca Chew toy allows
bunnies to really sink their teeth in for some chewing fun! (Great
for bunnies that have teeth issues and can't easily chew)
There are little nooks and crannies within the holes too that allow
for hidden treats (not included) which will boost this toy into
overdrive. Check out the VIDEO of bunnies
having a blast with the Bunny Blast Yucca Toy.
The Bunny Blast
toys are kiln dried (heat treated)
great toy, bunnies dislike it though
From Katelyn Catchpole of Fairborn, Ohio on 11/11/2015.
It looks and seems like a wonderful toy, although neither of my bunnies are interested in it sadly. They are just too picky!All they will do is roll it around if it is in their way. =(
Awesome! Finally a toy he will actually chew!
From Anonymous of Durham, North Carolina on 7/5/2015.
Our rabbit chews CONSTANTLY, and we've tried a dozen chew toys/objects and until we got the Yucca Bunny Blast the baseboards was the only thing to satisfy him. He LOVES this and chews it like crazy and pushes it all around! When it's gone, I will definitely buy another one.
My bunny loves it.
From Leslee Merrill of Hampton Falls, New Hampshire on 6/15/2015.
Will and have recommended to my friends to buy for their bunnies.
One Bunny Likes it
From Anonymous of Allentown, Pennsylvania on 2/21/2015.
My one bunny loves to chew on it in between chewing on their cardboard house. Doesnt make a big mess.
From Erica Corrigall of Timmins, Ontario on 1/24/2015.
I had a really great experience ordering from Binky Bunny. The yucca treats I wanted to try out with my Buns arrived in great timing, were exactly as advertised and came with a special treat that I split between both my boys. Chew toys is something I'm having a hard time getting the boys interested in . . .
Excellent chew toy!!!
From BunnyLover of Simi Valley, California on 12/22/2014.
I LOVE this product!! I received this about a week ago and my bunnies have really chewed it!! This is an extremely cute and fun toy that your bunnies will love!!!
From Rondi Costello of Toronto, Ontario on 12/18/2014.
The holes are too big to put treats into - they just fall out and there are only 2 slots into which hay can be woven.This toy has so much potential with just a little more attention to detail such as making the "treat holes" smaller so you can stuff treats into them for the bunny to dig/bite out and . . .
It's a good toy.
From Melanie Brooker of Trenton, Nova Scotia on 5/31/2014.
My bunny isn't much of a player. But if i put some treats in a couple of the holes, she will actually push it around a bit and chew at it trying to get them, which is more than I can say for a lot of other toys. My only issue is that it said there would be bigger holes on the sides and stuff and the . . .

PUBLISHED March 11, 2010 0 1 / 5 Solar Ejection Material from the sun's surface stretches high into its atmosphere in a combined picture of an extremely bright coronal mass ejection seen on February 28 by NASA's STEREO spacecraft.Released on March 5, the new picture combines a STEREO view of the sun (orange) with a picture from the craft's coronograph, which blocks out the sun's glare to capture the fainter light of the sun's upper atmosphere, or corona (green). Image courtesy SOHO/STEREO/NASA Ice Tongue, Before It Took a Licking Shown in a 2007 satellite image released this week by the European Space Agency, a floating ice tongue extends roughly a hundred miles (160 kilometers) off Antarctica's Mertz Glacier as the Luxembourg-size iceberg B9B floats nearby.On February 12 or 13, 2010, the 60-mile-long (97-kilometer-long) B9B smashed into the tongue—creating a second, 48-mile-long (78-kilometer-long) iceberg, according to the Antarctic Climate and Ecosystems Cooperative Research Centre. (See pictures of this epic iceberg smashup.) Image courtesy ESA A Mighty Wind One of the nearest and brightest galaxies containing a rapidly growing supermassive black hole is seen in a composite image released March 3, 2010.The galaxy's red swirls represent x-ray data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory. Green shows optical data from the Hubble Space Telescope, and blue at the galaxy's core represents radio data from the Very Large Array in New Mexico.The combined picture shows that a strong wind is being generated by hot gases rapidly pulled toward the black hole. This wind is flying away from the center of the galaxy, dubbed NGC 1068, at a rate of about a million miles (1.6 million kilometers) an hour. Image courtesy NASA/CXC/MIT, STScI, and NSF/NRAO/VLA Huygens on Titan The size of a small car, the European Space Agency's Huygens probe sits on the surface of Saturn's moon Titan, still attached to its landing parachute, in an artist's rendering.Huygens touched down on Titan in 2005 and sent back pictures of the hazy moon for 90 minutes before running out of battery power. This picture, released March 8, 2010, is based on images from the probe. Image courtesy ESA Inverted Crater on Mars It might look like an oddly circular iceberg in the Antarctic Ocean. But this is actually a crater turned inside-out by time in the Arabia Terra region of Mars.Scientists think such inverted craters form when an impact basin fills with sediment and the material around that sediment gets eroded away. NASA released the false-color, high-resolution picture March 3, 2010, to commemorate a milestone for the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter: the collection of a hundred trillion bits of data on the red planet. The camera that snapped this shot on January 29, known as HiRISE, is one of six instruments aboard the Mars-orbiting craft.

Summary:Before entire networks were built on populist personalities and reality morphed into a TV genre, the masses fixated on a single, sociopathic star: controversial talk-show host Morton Downey, Jr. In the late '80s, Downey tore apart the traditional talk format by turning debate of current issues into a gladiator pit. His blow-smoke-in-your-face style drew a rabid cult following and the title, "Father of Trash Television." This film dissects the mind and motivation of television's most notorious agitator.

Thanks for the Daily Deviation, safva and everyone who enjoys this work. I am floored by the positive reception!

Incredibly thought-provoking, intense, and somewhat eerie as well.

Wow, a very unusual work!
You really have to look twice. The first glance creeps you out because of the expression;(did she drown and how could she be so at peace) but then you notice her hair isn't moving, the chips of stone, the unaffected goldfish and then the cracks on the dress. And if you blow up the picture you can see all the other cracks too. So it does start to feel less eerie, but then you wonder if someone wanted to play a prank on people who are strolling in this garden at night, by pushing this statue into the pond!
The colours are so beautifully nocturnal and I love the hint of the moon up at the top. Congratulations on the DD!

Good catch! That's a thorough analysis of the picture. I am glad you like it. Thanks a lot.
This reminds me a bit of Escher's "Three Worlds."
Is she a ghost? I like this art. So beautiful. Congrats on the well deserved DD~!!!
Wow congrats on the DD!!!!!
This is super eerie! Nicely done~
Did she drown? o.o
Creepy cool. I love how it looks like both water and space at the same time.
very cool concept
Wow! This is so pretty!
This is stunning!, well deserved the DD
It took me a sec to understand what was going on, and all I can say is "whoa."
This is incredible. Literally jaw-dropping.

Summer Brielle Bored College Co-ed Dildoes on a School Night
July 27, 2015 | Penthouse Models, Summer Brielle | Post A Comment
After a long, hard day studying, Penthouse Model Summer Brielle heads back to her sorority house to get some rest. She wraps herself in her finest lacy pink nightwear and then realizes she's not so tired after all… So instead, she slowly peels off her lingerie, revealing her perfect nipples, huge breasts, flat stomach and round ass. Then she spreads her legs and slides her hands down to her pussy, going knuckle deep with two fingers.
Summer Brielle wants more though, which is why she takes out her favourite toy. She wraps her lips around the tip of the toy, getting it wet and ready for her tight teen pussy. Then she gets on her knees and pushes her toy as deep as it can go, moaning with pleasure the whole time.

Weighing in at just over a pound each, the La Sportiva Stratos Evo Alpine Touring Boot is one of the lightest ski-mountaineering boot ever produced. Made entirely of carbon fiber, the competition-inspired Stratos Evo easily switches between hike and ski modes for ultra-fast ascents and the performance on the descent that would give any top-tier alpine ski boot a run for its money. Although the Stratos Evo comes at a price, you need the best if your aspirations include competing with the best.
- 3K Twill Carbon shell is molded with aeronautical technology, maintains its shape and performance in any temperature, and allows the boots to weigh in at just over a pound each — one of the lightest AT ski boot on the planet
- Thermo-formable EVA Stratos liner features a patented double tension lacing system and a patented hinge system that allows full ankle articulation
- Compatible with a two-piece, micro-light Bikini liner for gram-conscious competition racing (sold separately)
- Anchor and leverage device features two forward lean settings and a shock absorber for medial tibial impact common during the descent
- Carbon cuff allows for unrestricted ankle movement
- Instep inclination permits the natural movement of the foot while walking or running
- Posterior flex device allows a one-movement switch between walk and ski modes while providing downhill performance akin to a high-end alpine ski boot
- Steel toe fittings and carbon-coated rear fittings ensure a perfect pairing with the binding
- Waterproof zip stretch gaiter allows for easy entry and exit
- Weight-reduced thermal Vibram sole provides excellent grip for ski mountaineering, conforms to ISMF regulations, and is compatible with all tech-style bindings

Phenomenal boots.
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Awesome performance both up and down Denali. Super light and great range of motion for skinning up, and then when I had to switch to crampons (I used an ultralight pair from CAMP, I believe the XLC 470s), they held those perfectly as well. With 40-Below overboots I was warm even in high wind, very cold conditions. I think it's important to size them so you can fit a liner sock and a heavy sock and still wiggle your toes if you plan to use for high alpine climbing. On descent I had a 60 pound pack and two feet of powder to grapple with and the boots were totally solid.
Let's see some Denali pics David!
Rediculously light, skis well
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I mostly shared my thoughts in a comment below. I've been skinning and booting up with these boots for a while. I think the designers did a great job. I've found them to be comfortable, reasonably warm, absurdly light (like climbing with a trail running shoe) but also remarkably supportive in ski mode. They ski really well. When skinning up I've found that you don't need as high of a climbing bar - in walk mode these stratos evos articulate unlike any AT or tele boot I've ever owned. I think these boots are unbelievable.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
It is a race boot. Light, fragile and very narrow last. No boulder hopping in this one. If you need a race boot and understand the limitations and fit options this can be a good choice. Dated now by comparison to the newest La Sporive Cube.
Respectfully, some thoughts on Dane's comment above; I've been skinning and booting up with these for a while and I actually think they're pretty solid. Haven't done any boulder hopping but I think you might be fine doing some scrambling. Also, I tried on the cube before I bought the stratos evos and I definitely thought the evos were better (it seemed like they went too far trying to shave weight off with the Cube - a two piece liner for example). I think these boots are really well designed. One of the coolest pieces of gear I've ever owned.
What is the flex rating?

Has anyone used overboots with these? I'm thinking of the 40 Below overboots but worried they might be too big. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Will a boot like this be too cold to do a speed ascent of Denali in? (With overboots)
I think you could get away with it if you don't end up hunkering down in a snow cave. Hit the weather window.
Thanks Jim... I think I'll test them out for this in May...
Just got a pair. Man are they comfy around the office...
Hey Jim, thanks for your advice on this. Took them up Denali and they performed great. Took one day to 14 camp, and were a third the way to the summit a day later when we hit a snow storm that lasted five days. Unfortunately we didn't have the time to stay and get the summit. With overboots I was warm. Handled crampons and descending quite well... Thanks!
Isn't the Pierre Gignoux the lightest ?...
Isn't the Pierre Gignoux the lightest ? (I have a pair :-))
Yeah at 444g the PG are definitely lighter.

I am size 10.5 US. Do they make a size for me?
The 43.5 should fit you well. Sportiva items seem to run true to size. Plus, with the return policy, you really can't go wrong.
hmm, a 43.5 mondo seems pretty big... 28.5 might be closer.
It's EU sizing not Mondo ;)
It is also a very narrow low volume boot....

Small bugs, called weevils or flour beetles, are commonly found in flour and other products made from grains. These insects can infest any house, regardless of how clean you keep the kitchen. These insects lay eggs that are impossible to see and can multiply quickly. Prevention of infestation is the best way to keep your food safe.
Things You'll Need
- Clear sealed containers
Remove every item from your cabinets and inspect all packages that contain flour or other grains. Discard any items that have insects in them.
Wash the shelves with disinfectant and remove any food particles or loose flour.
Place all remaining grain products into clean, clear, sealed containers and return to the cabinets.
Place flour and cornmeal in the refrigerator to ensure insects will not get into them. These items are especially susceptible to infestation.
Inspect the containers regularly and remove any items with signs of insects.
Tips & Warnings
- Bugs are often in food when you purchase it. Inspect flour carefully and if you don't see any signs of insects, place in a sealed container immediately to prevent infestation.
- Weevils can burrow through thin plastic bags. Place even unopened items in sealed containers to prevent this.

'Saturdays for Kids' at Oklahoma City museum encourages children's creativity, parents say
This month's "Saturday for Kids" event sponsored by the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City featured Oklahoma artist-in-residence Pat Webb.
In a class she titled "Strength of Spirit," Webb taught children ages 4 to 12 how to make picture collages from watercolor paint and copies of photographs from the newly sponsored exhibition, "National Geographic Greatest Photographs of the American West."
Children cut out images from the copies of photographs and pasted them onto paper which they painted. With each image the children associated a word.
"I chose energetic because buffalo have a lot of energy. Smart because when a predator comes buffalo need to know how to escape. And resourceful because when food is scarce buffalo need to find different ways to survive," Alaina Brady, 8, said of her collage, which displayed cut out pictures of buffalo amid a watercolored sunset.
Webb said while they may not know it, the children choose words that describe not only who they see in the pictures but also who they would like to be.
"When the children see images from the American West and imagine what kind of qualities people had to have to survive they get excited. They think 'I have those qualities' or 'I'd like to have those qualities," Webb said.
"It's character development. And after all that's art — to see beauty and make a connection," she said.
Milton McCourtie said the class helps to encourage his daughter Isabella's creativity.
"I was telling my kids the other day that when I was young my teacher would tell me to draw a picture and it was very systematic. Now creativity is encouraged. Everything Bella makes is self-motivated and nontraditional," McCourtie said.
"It's just great for them. And the power of creativity can't be stressed enough. Everything from cars to the chairs they're sitting on come from the thought process they're building right now."
"I used the word adventurous because the people who came here had to be adventurous. And because I like going to different places, too," Isabella McCourtie said.
Sue McCoy, an assistant educator at the museum, said "Saturdays for Kids" is a privately funded program that features different workshops on the first Saturday of each month and is free for children ages 4 to 12 and their parents.
"It's a gift to the community," McCoy said.
McCoy, who has volunteered and worked for the museum for 10 years, said her favorite part of each class is to watch the children's facial expressions as they learn something new.
"For some of them it's the first time they've created anything," she said.
If you go
The next "Saturday for Kids" event is at 10 a.m. Dec. 1 and will teach children how to make old-fashioned Christmas ornaments. Participation is free but registration is required. For more information or to make reservations, call Sue McCoy at 478-2250, ext. 264.

Low pay makes faculty search process difficult, professor tells State Regents Thursday
Relatively low pay for professors is beginning to make it difficult to attract quality candidates, a faculty representative told the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education.
Aaron Elmer, a biology professor at Murray State College in Tishomingo, spoke at a Thursday meeting on behalf of the board's Faculty Advisory Council.
State budget cuts have forced campuses to freeze or cut faculty salaries over the past few years. That makes the search process for new faculty members all the more challenging, he said. Institutions often wind up hiring their fifth or sixth choice for a position because they can't afford the candidates they'd prefer.
Despite that challenge, Elmer said, Oklahoma's colleges and universities have assembled a talented group of faculty members who are committed to the state's college completion goals.
Gov. Mary Fallin has called for an additional 20,400 degrees and certificates to be awarded in Oklahoma over the next 12 years. That goal is a part of Complete College America, a nationwide initiative designed to boost college completion.
Higher education officials announced earlier this year that they'd far exceeded their completion benchmark for the first year of the initiative. Oklahoma's public colleges and universities, together with private schools and CareerTech centers, had expected to produce 1,700 additional degrees and certificates during the 2011-2012 academic year. In September, officials announced public colleges and universities alone had produced 1,900 more graduates.
Officials have warned that the first year of the initiative was likely the easiest, and that the program may not see similar success in the years to come. Although the next 11 years are uncertain, Elmer said, faculty members are committed to working with higher education officials to meet those goals.

Due to your family history, you might be told that your family may carry a genetic mutation. This makes it more likely that you or other relatives might get cancer.
You might fall into any of the categories below:
- You might have had a genetic test that showed you have a gene mutation.
- You might have decided not to get tested, but you have a strong family history that suggests a genetic cause for the cancers in your family.
- You might not have been able to have a genetic test because you don't have a living relative with that cancer who could be tested.
- You might not have been able to be tested because genetic testing is not available for the type of cancer that runs in your family (for example, testicular cancer).
- You might have had a genetic test that didn't find a mutation. But, because of your family history, you have still been advised that your family is considered as having a high risk of developing a certain cancer.
Coming to terms with the knowledge that you and some members of your family have a higher than average cancer risk can be difficult.
Some people say that being told about their high risk felt like finding out that they had cancer already. The only question in their mind was 'When will it happen to me?'
Others say they felt as if history was repeating itself, with people in every new generation getting cancer, and bringing suffering and bereavement to the whole family.
Other people say that after the initial shock, they felt relieved that they'd found out about their risk. They say that the facts are less scary than the fear they had before. They felt better knowing everything there is to know, even if it is limited knowledge.
Living with uncertainty
We are only just beginning to understand the role of genetics in cancer. However, identifying cancer susceptibility genes doesn't give us all the answers. Genetic testing doesn't tell us who will definitely get cancer, or when.
This can cause anxiety. It's natural to want to know what is likely to happen to us, so that we can plan for our future. However, often definite answers aren't possible so you may have to find ways of living with uncertainty.

Williston airport opens after device investigation
WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) — The Williston airport has been reopened after being shut for several hours while authorities investigated an unidentified device in the terminal, and frustrated passengers waited to hear whether their flights would be rescheduled.
Williston police Lt. David Belisle said a "suspicious" device was found at Sloulin Field International Airport about 3:15 p.m. Thursday. The airport was evacuated, and a bomb squad from Minot was called in. Williston police said later Thursday that the situation was cleared without incident and authorities left the scene around 7.30 p.m. An airport employee said it reopened about 8 p.m.
Sloulin Field has a single small terminal, which handles about a dozen daily commercial arrivals and departures. It has seen its number of departing passengers grow from 8,500 in 2007 to 186,000 in 2013.
