best rtg casino hands down! 42979
all star slots casino is definitely my best honest and clear rules of the 2009 i registered yesterday using the lcb link i tried to use the lcb50 no deposit coupon but not working .
contacted the customer care via chat ,and they said that maybe i missed something because the installation has no lcdb signature and i
cannot benefit of the bonus , i expected that the bonus due to rejection was a closed story, but surprise they gift me with a 10$ dollar no deposit bonus that after a couple of minutes became a + 187$ over the wagering requirements , the operator said congratulations to me(first big difference between cirrus or club player that first of all say how dare you .... :) and explained in detail that i could get my 50 dollars winning after making a deposit of 25 dollars and after sending the faxback form make a widthdraw of the bonus plus the deposit (honest!!!) if you want to cut it fast i advice neteller or other non credit card methods plus sending the fax back via email .
for respect to their honesty i preferred not to cash my 50 dollars
winning and more then all i think this could be my first rtg casino of real trust .
Hey! Does anyone know where to find the Flash games/ Instant Play casino?
Hi, currently there is no flash casino but we are working on integrating that for you soon.
Please use the download option for now, plus that gives you full access to all games and game features.
All Star Slots is a HORRIBLE CASINO!! I was so excited when I received my free bonus chip and I loved playing the games too! I had luck and met all play through requirments and still had $700 left over. I tried to cash out the max which was $250, and sent in all of my docs. I waited patiently for my money to be put in my quicktender account with the intentions of depositing money back to the casino. I wanted to see if they would pay me first since I will NOT ever deposit real money to an online casino unless I 1) know that they are reputable, or 2) that they will pay me if I win.
Needless to say they took all of the money out of my account and made excuses saying I played video poker(although BEFORE I played video poker I had met the play through requirements on the slots first! So I did not think it mattered at that point if I played video poker since I could only cash out $250 of the $700 I had won on slots anyway!!)So bottom line do not waste your time on this one! Yet another scam casino! I am so disappointed!!
Does anyone know of a reputable trustworthy casino with the RealTime Gaming Software?? I really like these games, but have had no luck with finding an honest casino with this software??? I love Microgaming slots and Vegas Technologies slots and I already play regularly on my favorite casinos with those software types. I really want to find a good Realtime Gaming and Rival Gaming casino since I like those software games too. If you know of a trustworthy Realtime or Rival casino that you have had success cashing out with please let me know!(Not that I ever expect to have luck to cash out, but I want to know if I do luck up and win that I will get my money!)
Hi marie7788, can you send me your username please and I can look into this? martyn at cwcaffiliates dot com please.
Terms and conditions do state that various types of games are excluded when it comes to free chips so this should be adhered to at all times to avoid any disappointment.
We are considered to be one of the most reputable casino groups online today and we are proud of this and work hard to achieve this status. If you can provide me with the details I can see what can be done for you, if anything at all.
what is the sign up bonus code for a no deposit bonus
code: LCASINOBONUSES.COM
September 4, 2011 at 658 pm eastern time, I was playing Crystal Waters and won a Random Jackpot for 5765.00 dollars. My scree turned a shade of plum with fireworks and the counter ran up to 5700 and some change . The random Jackpot started over at 1000.00, but my balance stayed the same. Started chat righ away, Olga, sorry it does not show that you won. Somebody did, because the money is gone. I,ve played here for months, cashed out several times, never had a problem like this.. All Olga could say is "sorry" And nobody can tell me where it is. I know what i saw.. Screwed, retiredgov
Did i forget to mention, per all star chat, I was the only one playing crystal waters at 0100 am on the 4th, where did the money go ???
Please can you confirm your username at All Star as going by the username on the forum here it brings up an account which hasnt been used since 2009.
Please confirm.
Just thought I would update this as I have since found out that this has been sorted and the player has a cashout pending.
All is good.
Retiredgov, user name for All Star Casino, Martyn, thanks for looking into this for me. On 9/7 the jackpot amount was added to my account, I spent 1700 of it and requested a withdrawl for the balance. Normally, All Star processes withdrawl request within 3 days, but in this case, its still pending after 7 days. They say they are waiting on RTG, what does that mean ?? This casino is the best I played on-line till this incident occured...
Yesterday I registered on this casino and got 50$ free. After playing a lot I got 550$ available for withdraw. I put 450$ for withdraw and 100$ lose on games. next day I received email saying that withdraw was declined and they took all 450$. Right now I have 0$ in my balance and 0$ withdrawn.
Thinks a lot before playing with this guys.
I received the following message after downloading from this (my favorite) forum.
Coupon 'LCASINOBONUSES.COM' cannot be redeemed at this time. Please call customer service for more information.
I tried contacting live chat but couldn;t even get connected. help, pls. thanks, beardcat
oh my new acct there is "beardcat123"
nevermind - i just talked to chat and apparently had old acct there. news to me, thanks!
Not only it is difficult to find a casino that allows US players to register and play, but finding a good one seems to be like a mission impossible! And then I came across All Star Slots, a Casino I will definitely put in my bookmarks. Despite the name, this is a place not only for Slots, but also other popular Casino games.
By now, I have learned to spot a good RTG casino, and this is one by all means. You will find the best and the latest RTG games in here, like Triple Twister and Crazy Dragon. The only thing that I didn't like is the fact that you have to download and install the software, which will only work on your PC, so if you are using a Mac, you will have to find another casino.
The bonuses are nice, and not a problem to get, just make sure you contact the support to check it over with them. In my case, they did their job just fine, no problems at all.
All star slots casino uses real time gaming software. it is probably one of the most favorable software by united states players. they are part of the club world network. they have established a good reputation amoung slot players. There deposit bonuses are not the very best but with this casino you know you are in good hands so that makes up for the deposit bonuses. In my opinion i think the slots hit a little better than other casinos. I have played here a few times and every time i have enjoyed playing here. even though my money went pretty quick sometimes , i still got a couple of hours playing time with my deposit. you have to download the casino and at that time you will have to register a account before it will open up. the layout of the casino is pretty simple to navigate around. one of my favorite slot games to play is mice dice. they do not seem to give out free bonuses. well not to me anyways , i have never asked them either. they also have video poker , keno and other casino games to play. there are also table games that you can play. after you deposit it will let you knw how much you have to wager before you can request a cash out from them. i have never done a cash out from this casino but i have from with in there network at another casino. if you sign up through lasest casino bonuses you can get a no deposit sign up bonus. also if you sign up through lastest casino bonuses you can get cash back on your deposits that you make to the casino . you will have to look in the exclusive bonuses part of the forum for all the information on how to get cash back on your deposits. you really can not go wrong with playing here at this casino with them having a good reputation is really hard to come by these days with all these other new casinos opening and closing. I would recommand that you give them a try and see for yourself how awesome they are. i have never had any problems with them at all.
This site has a lot to offer. I do enjoy playing my slots, so I always make a point to try out the slot sites as long as I hear pretty good things about them. I have definitely heard good things about all-star slots. The software download is free upon signing up, so it's not too much of a hassle. I found the layout to be extremely simple and easy to navigate.
They have a wide selection of gaming to choose from as well, with a total of over 120 to choose from. Of course, the main attraction for me here is definitely the slots. They have some very nice jackpots up for grabs as well as a number of exciting promos. They've got all kinds of daily, weekly, monthly and holiday promotions. Simply check out their 'Promotions' page to see exactly what they have to offer. I am definitely a regular at all-star!
Nice casino, and nice no deposit bonus. I love RTG slots... Azstec is great, everybody should try it :)
All Star Slots Casino offers so many great bonuses, with flexible options so players can have the opportunity to play the types of games that they prefer. With bonuses always available this is not a casino that entices players with welcome bonuses and then leaves loyal players in the lurch with no additional offers available.
Excellent casino from Club World Casino Group. The best network to offer RTG software. When i ergistered my account they offered 50$ free bonus with max withdrawal of 250$. I managed to make a rollover nad charged a withdrawal. As I was already verified in another ccasino from this group I did not have to verify my account again. I rmade a min deposit from Skirll. I received my funds on the next bussiness day. What a great time for RTG.
All star slots, Well the name says it all. Great slots, cool bonuses, great design with good customer service. One to frequent and probably revisit . 4 stars here!
All star slots is a part of club world casinos, and by my opninion this group is the best across all real time gaming. Can not say anything bad about my experience at all star slots, everything fine, except i am not big fan of RTG :D
All star slots a great addition to the club world casinos. One of my favorites. Very professional service, always great bonuses, highly recommend. If you are lucky enough to withdrawal, timely payouts.
ALL STAR SLOTS , by my experience has been a pretty good casino to play at. Although I think Ive only deposited there one, so I am not sure how their cashout is for US players. Other than that, great casino!!
One of the best existing RTG casinos is indeed ALL STAR SLOTS casino.
I joined this one because of fantastic LCB promotion with only 40x Wagering - quite fair for no deposit bonus though. Tried some games and was surprised that RTP wasn't so bad as I expected, offcourse need more luck to get through, but has really exciting time and had fun.
After verification process, Customer service told me that cashouts going be made really fast, aprox in 12 hours, so I decided to give a try with real money and made some Cashouts, after several deposits. Money were in my account in under 8 hours after request. Good experience.
I will be sticking around here, for a while for sure.
RTG games are one of my fravourite, however, although the 40x wager is quite low, i still unable to cash out with some winnings.
Claimed a bonus from this casino.
I became a member of this casino a long time ago I think it was about 6 years ago.
At that moment they were using another software ( no RTG). I must say their games were better than the games at this moment. Their former games dont exist anymore I think, it's a pitty but they probably had their reason for changing their software.
RTG is not my favorite.
I probably wont play here because a few bad experience with RTG casinos.
Good luck for the players who play at this casino.
I don't understand all this entusiastic comments! I played this casino in the past, for a winning of 100$ I must send 3 utility bills, 3 times all documents (alwayais pixelated...they said) a picture with mi ID in my hand, and fnally a phone control.
3 weeks for payment and a lot of mails sended. I cancelled this casino and all group.
Very bad!
Some time back I claimed an exclusive welcome free chip at All Star Slots and, though I did not meet the WR, it lasted quite a while and I had fun in the process. As one of the reputable Club World Group of RTG casinos, this site is a solid choice though I personally haven't had much luck with the software to date.
I have played and deposited here several times. They have a good reputation and customer service is very friendly and helpful. Haven't won here yet but still trying.
a solid rtg casino, the only downside is they have no instant or mobile play.
I am a member here and have decided that this is were I am going to play for awhile, but now after reading the comments on here am reading there is no instant version, I cannot download the casino anymore, I never had a problem until 2 months ago, and I tried another computer but I still cannot download the RTG casinos anymore,
After I download it says, .... Casino Shell has stopped working....
All RTG casinos now are doing this to me, I can play on the Instand versions though.
Has anyone had this happen? if you did how do you fix it?
I like almost every real time gaming casino on which are allowed to play players from Serbia of course. They offer a lot of no deposit bonus and their codes you can find everywhere but I never won anything from them. But never mind I always find here great fun and maybe one day I will win something. So I like RTG casinos and All star is one of the best for me. Nice costumer support and standard good games. I have no complaints about this casino
Very good casino of the best casino group with RTG software. Great bonuses/freerolls, very friendly and fast support, fast (as for RTG) cashouts. I cashed out 600$ from no deposits with this casino group.
I like this casino. Everything is good, standard RTG games and and don't have a lot complaints on this casino. But I have one big! I use a lot of computer, at my home I have 3 computers and If I want to play this casino I must download this casino on all becouse they don't offer instant play. I thinkt that now almost all casino offer playing in browser and I think that this casino should do that,
I played here with my no deposit bonus and I am not satisfied with this casino. I can't find anything interesting here. I love table games but this coupon is restricted and I must play on their video slots. I was looking for good video slots but I couldn't find any... Boring bonus games with small payouts and I was happy only because I didn't deposit here...
Installed software and used no deposit code and it was rejected saying it was used before. I chatted with CS and they said there was already and acct on this PC. I said there was no way as this was the first time I ever installed this software, visted that casino, etc. I am only one with this PC and the name they mentioned was weird and I didn't know them. I asked who it is that used my IP address and they said you must have had an account and that is final. Very rude. Forget using this casino. I couldn't believe they said I had an account. No way physically possible but they said the IP matches mine for a prior acct. Bogus. No money for them!
canofham - probably you were already in their database because you had redeemed a ndp, or simply you were previously registered in another casino that's a part of the same operator...World Online Gaming. (Club World, High Noon, Alladin's gold etc.) that's happened :)
When i first played here, avail of the no deposit bonus and was able to play wagering requirements. But luck finally ended so back to zero. They have a friendly support team and I here they have a fast withdrawal. If money warrants, will definitely deposit here.
I have been playing at this casino for quite some time now. the customer support is awesome! I have cashed out at this casino and have never run into any issues. If not able to cash out they usually will credit me with a loyalty chip or I can go to support and ask for a free chip based on my deposits.
thanks all star I received my withdrawal in 5 days this is fastest withdrawal I ever received from any other casino over 12 years
I have definitely had some good luck at Allstar Slots over the past 4 years. About About a month after creating my account, I hit a Royal Flush on a $5 bet playing ACES and Eights. I was dealt 5 crappy cards, held none, and subsequently dealt a Royal in Spades worth $4000. I was smart enough to cash that one out.
Sometime over the past year, CW Group reduced the payout tables on Video Poker to an inferior 8/5 for Jacks or Better and 7/5 for Bonus Games. Also Dbl Dbl Bonus pays 9/6 but 4 Aces with Kicker pays $1600, not $2000 which is standard. This increases the house edge by a hefty 2 to 3 percent.
As with all Club World casinos, the service is excellent and if you hit you will be paid promptly compared to most RTGs. I haven't had really good run there in quite some time but had enough decent sessions to keep me depositing.
Please dear players, do not deposit there. I once managed to wager a no deposit bonus and reached a max cashout. I sent all documents and the next day my balance was cleared to 0. Had multiple or more likely endless conversations with support and the reason for clearing my balance was because I hadn't mentioned my apartment number in the registration form. I am a member in all Club World casinos and I checked my details everywhere, and the odd thing was that in every else casino the details were correct except the one I was trying to cashout. I do not trust them.
another great club world casino, however with tournaments and higher paying jacks or better video poker than club usa. i have had nothing but good experiences with all of the group of these casinos, and like the games very much. they have speedy payouts and a super customer service team.
this casino is on of the best i have played. the tournaments are the the best.
This is like everyone else has stated one of the best and easiest user friendly gaming sites ever!I deposited 2xs and have cashed out for $100,the money came quick and I will definitely go here again if my other gaming sites i like just as much allow me to:0If you want great service fast response and fun games this is the place to be!
Hi so i got the 50 dollar no deposit and lucky enuff i met the wagering requiment and made a withdrawl,2 days later they called my phone and asked to give them my documents wich is fair,i told them i dont have a scanner nor good mobile phone to fix this right now.i logged in 2 days later to just check and my balance was down to 0 so i
talked with the support and they said they voided my money cause i had joined a sister site and typed just a slightest number or letter wrong so they took my money hahah.A seriour site would wait til i could fix my documents and proove my misspellng.These guys at allstar is crooks.
Very fun casino, friendly people to talk to. Got the free chip and played, and played, and spun and spun for a night and then another few hours. Eventually went out, but it was a really good try. The games worked well and I had a good time. It will be tough to choose which one of these casinos that I like the most.
Not the best RTG casino but it's ok.
Claimed 2 bonuses from this casino.
I still dont know why i did deposit here... More than 10 deposits in the club worlds casinos.... It was a bad idea.
Good luck if you play here...
Claimed a bonus from this casino.
All Star Slots is a part of the Club World Casinos. Like I commented in the Manhattan Slots Casino - my country can get only deposit bonuses here (at least that :D ), wagering is x30
I am planning to make my first deposit in this casino very soon (min dep is 35$ so I'm still thinking :D) and after that I will certainly make my Real comment, here in LCB of course :)
*** At first look : All Star Slots is a casino that looks thrustworthy and I think they deserve a deposit :D
** Look forward for my IN-FULL-Details review - comming soon ;)
for me, my experience with allstar slots wasn't as great as everyone else. right from the beginning when registering with them I never had a good experience. I made my account and went to go deposit but for some reason I couldn't get it to go through. the credit card processor or something like that wasn't working, that's what the customer service said and to try again later.later on still didn't work. aftere a couple weeks I saw the free ndb 20 here on lcb and thought to give it a try since theres been no activity on my account, that didn't work. finally I tried another deposit attempt but this time they told me that im not allowed to deposit there with credit card until I mail or fax in verification. OKAY np! done and waiting now. after much time,i contact them only to find out my account was closed. but, I have to say that their site is very different from other casinos and so it feels very inviting for me to go and play.
Great RTG, that actually pays if you are lucky enough to win. Excellent Customer service available 24-7. They are part of the Club World Casinos Group. In order to cash out a fax back form it required and some other id documents but all and all worth it if you are lucky.
Big ups to the support staff at All Star Slots! Peter, Jemma, Emma, Eloise, and a few others I can't quite recall at the moment but I know I've forgotten- all do a tremendous job helping explain/figure out/apply the best bonuses and are all around friendly and genuinely helpful!
I won my first big jackpot here, a Royal Flush playing max-bet $1 Video Poker!
I'm glad they finally have a mobile edition, as primarily a Mac user, I hate having to virtualize!
well it seems they stopped the 50% cash back on cash deposits
getting real greedy they are
I haven't deposited here. I did try the bonus and liked the design work and customer service. Club World casinos seem to be amongst the best for RTG software...there is a lot of praise in gambling forums like this one and the group has a solid reputation. In online gambling trust is everything really. Reputation and trust.
I really think I'm going to make a deposit at one of their casinos. Doing these reviews is reminding me of how good some of the casinos I've used in the past are. Particularly when I contact customer service to see if I have an account already and the level of service...but also reading other people's reviews here in the forum reinforces my confidence in the Club World Group.
Good luck to all
Support is not the fastest but they are helpful and not just copy paste support. Registered and already made 2 cashouts to neteller, with verification which took 1 day to withdrawal it took 2 days to neteller. Ofcourse not fast for e wallet withdrawal, but atleast they did pay without any problems, like many other casinos. Trusted casinos i think the pay
RTG network casino - i love it. Nothing special, but made WR, made cash out :) So, what can I say? Only good words and give best rate :)
Claimed a bonus from this casino.
Oh, $50 registration bonus !!! Oh, I should have known LCB long before. I only got 20 or 25 chips for sign-up in Club World Casino including this AllStarSlots.
After I found out the good ratings of Club Worlds, I only played in them for a while. And actually, my score was pretty good with Aladdin's Gold and Lucky Red, I think that my bad luck started with this AllStarSlots, hahaha. I lost a lot and many time :(
I remember that I made only one withdrawal from this casino.
But, my loss was simply because of my hasty desire for winnings.
This casino is great in many features.
I will write just one thing and it is the Tournament.
Among Club Worlds Casino, All Star Slots and Club World only have the Tournament - Weekly and monthly.
The fee is rather low like $1.1, $2 etc. There are no add-on, it means that the previous scores will be erased. This more fair rule for the players and casinos both. Don't forget try it, too :)
This casino has been around for quite some time and is one most players will surely come across when first familiarizing themselves with online casinos especially where no deposits are available, my personal experiences with this casino do not go further than than playing with a freechip back in my early days but what I can remember was a pleasent experience with no issues although a withdrawal was not requested and that remains the true test to an online casinos credibility for fairness and integrity
very cool casino I really enjoy playing here because I can play on the same money for hours so that's a plus for me they don't give me any problems with stuff so I will continure to play here good luck all
If you like Realtime Gaming software just play in the Club World group of casinos. I totally trust them as they are good, decent casinos. The support are really nice, always willing to help.
I've made some deposits in Manhattan slots and Aladdin's gold. and won some cash... but lost it instead of making a withdraw :( :D
As every RTG casino this one has what to offer. A lot of promotions for everyone's taste. New graphic version of rtg casinos looks really great, they now are really attractive.
So i love playing at rtg because of the many deposit and even many no deposit bonuses. You can be involved here for along time. Minus is that if you are a new player and have won with no deposit bonus you can be in trouble to withdraw it.
The games looks outdated, everyone knows it but some of them are really still great and with good payments:)
They are part of the Club World Casinos Group. In order to cash out a fax back form it required and some other id documents but all and all worth it if you are lucky.
a very good RTG casino with good promotions, i never deposited there but i thinks soon i will try, the most important thing for me when i chose a casino is the withdraw process, so let me try
part of the clubworld so i trust them they give pretty good deposit bonuses

International TableTop Day was born from Wil Wheaton and Felicia Day's hugely popular TableTop web series on Geek & Sundry. In each episode, Wheaton and a rotating group of celebrity friends play a variety of games ranging from established classics to new indie publications. The show was an instant hit and is credited with reinvigorating the tabletop gaming industry, garnering a Diana Jones Award (an industry honor for "excellence in gaming") in its first year. One retailer even dubbed the bump in sales as "The Wheaton Effect," a boost corroborated by publishers such as Days of Wonder and Calliope Games.

Welcome to Amara Hospice
Providing care for a family member with a life-limiting illness and caring for a loved one diagnosed with a debilitating disease rank among the greatest hardships anyone can face. But rather than having one person or a family alone cope with this heartbreaking responsibility, hospice brings an integrated team of skilled professionals to care for a patient and ease their last days.
Amara Hospice goes beyond taking care of the patient, because our caregivers understand the emotional turmoil and daily challenges confronting the family. Amara recognizes the energy required for family members to stay strong when their loved one has a life-limiting condition.
We believe that providing the best level of care for a patient includes caring for the family as well. Amara gives consoling support to the family, so the family can focus on giving love and comfort to their loved one.Get In TouchProvider Info

I'm looking for a service to host my secondary nameserver. I've been looking at DynDns because of the great feedback I see on ServerFault & other sites.
But I'm looking at two of their plans: Custom DNS ($30/year) and Secondary DNS ($40/year). All I'm looking for is to have a secondary nameserver which points to the same place my primary one does.
Does Custom DNS do everything I need & work correctly, or do I need the extra $10/year for the Secondary DNS? Or is there another plan/provider that would better fit my purposes?

Disease Proof
Obesity, Eating, and Pregnancy
I don't think you need to be a doctor or nutrition to expert to rightfully assume that a pregnant mother's health and eating habits can have a direct effect on the child developing inside her. But, don't take my word for it—I'm just a blogger—here's what Dr. Fuhrman has to say. From Disease-Proof Your Child:
The time to begin paying attention to a child's health is long before birth. Even the mother's diet twelve months before conception can influence the child's future health. It is important to eat healthfully prior to conception as well as once pregnancy has begun. Proper nutrition and good health habits are more important than ever during pregnancy and can help in maintaining good health for both mother and baby.So, with that being said, check out this report by Malcolm Ritter of the Associated Press. New research has determined that weight-gain during pregnancy may negatively impact babies once they're born. Read on:
Women in the study who gained the recommended amount of weight ran four times the risk of having a child who was overweight at age 3, compared to women who gained less than the advised amount.
The outcome was about the same for women who gained more than the advisable amount.
So what's a pregnant woman to do? Clearly, she shouldn't gain more weight than recommended, said the study's lead author, Dr. Emily Oken of Harvard Medical School.
But beyond that, it's too early to say whether women should try to gain less than the standards call for or shoot for the low end of the recommended range, Oken said. At least the latter course is probably safe, she said.
Some other experts urged that pregnant women not try to gain less weight than recommended.Do you really need to wait for the guidelines to change before you take action in your own life?
In any case, Oken said, it's too soon to call for a revision of the standard guidelines.

Sigh. My first pregnancy I thought I ate healthy (not by ETL standards, but definitely not SAD) and gained 50 lbs. This pregnancy (I'm 36 weeks) I've already gained 35- top of the range- and I ETL. In my opinion, women's bodies are going to do what they're gonna do and there's not a whole lot we can do about it. I would encourage women to just eat healthy and forget about the scale for once. Honestly, this report just ticks me off.

In other words, can an application that runs on one distro be simply copied and run on another distro?
It depends on how the application is build. One problem can be system paths that might differ from distribution to distribution. Another problem are shared libraries which might not be installed on the target system, or worse might be installed in incompatible versions.
One solution to the libraries problem is to either build statically linked binaries or (like it's common on OS X) to just ship all required libs with the application and if necessary set LD_LIBRARY_PATH accordingly (though this is a bad idea for so many reasons).
An easy way to check if your program will run is to list all the linked libraries using ldd and see if they exist on the target system.
Example using apache httpd:
If all the linked libraries exist in a compatible version on the target system, it's likely your application will be able to start. From there on it's mostly paths that have to be adjusted.
It depends on the glibc version amongst other things. Its generally not a good idea to since file system structures might vary.
It depends on the complexity of the application, as well as on the dependencies and libraries it links to.
If the application is stand-alone, simple, has no external dependencies and is compiled on the same CPU architecture - it should work.
In more complicated scenarios, it's hard to tell. For sure, to have any chance, the application need to be for the same CPU arch, same glibc version, and the 2 distros need to be with a common base - i.e. it's easier to run debian app on ubuntu, etc.
If you want to build such an application, and be able to run it on any distro - then you need to compile it with statically linked libraries, and to nor relay on the OS filesystem layout and to assume that some files will be located at specific locations.
Id it's not you who builds the application - then better use the specific distro's pre-build packages, or compile from source.
All above is true for "compiled" application. If it's some scripting language application - ruby, php, perl, python, etc., most probably (if the interpreter version is the same) you can just copy it - again, if the app does not assume some files are at specific locations. But this can be solved, as you can modify the script to suit the move.
If the processor architecture is the same I can't see why this wouldn't work.

TC TO DAVID THOM ; 20 January 1843; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18430120-TC-DTH-01; CL 16: 29-30
5. Cheyne Row, Chelsea London, 20 jany, 1843—
Dear Sir,
Your Letter, and still earlier the Book it was to announce,1 arrived here several days ago. Many thanks for both. The friendly inscription you have prefixed to the Book is all the more gratifying to me, or rather is alone gratifying, as I can discern by clear indications, what I already knew by credible report, that you are a man of sincerity,—a very rare kind of man at present. I am accustomed to say, and do not mean any paradox, that Intelligence and Integrity are twin faces of the same thing, and cannot be divorced at all; a fact which is very important and very cheering to me in looking at these sad days. If praise be of any value, as certainly it sometimes is withal, then praise from such a man is precisely the kind for another man.
I have not yet got your Divine Inversion sufficiently examined; nor am I sure that I shall ever fully succeed in penetrating into the peculiar centre where you stand and look: but I already seem to myself to discern indubitable analogies with much that is deepest and most central in what I otherwise have come to believe; and I may venture already to express my persuasion that the Doctrine you state and enforce there, is, in the real essence of it, true.
Wishing you good success, wishing you faithful continual endeavour, which is the best success, in all your strugglings, and strenuous life-battles (for such, I see, yours are), I remain, / Dear Sir,
Yours with thanks and regard,
T. Carlyle

Pavlina Smatova
's biggest singles win of the dual season was not enough as No. 6 UCLA sent the Oregon women's tennis team to a 6-1 loss at the Student Tennis Center on Saturday.
Smatova picked up her 10th dual win of the year by upsetting No. 58 McCall Jones to give the Ducks (7-11, 1-6 Pac-10) a point, but the Bruins won the other eight matches to improve to 14-5 (4-1 Pac-10).
"It was a tough match today" head coach Paul Reber said. "Hats off to UCLA, they played well in the big moments. Pavlina did a great job winning her match. It's a great reward for her with all the hard work she's put in and the tight matches she's played this year. Patricia (Skowronski) and Pascale (Neubert) had tough losses, but they battled hard through the end."
The Bruins quickly secured the doubles point on the strength of 8-1 and 8-3 wins at the No. 2 and 3 spots, respectively. Smatova and Patricia Skowronski nearly picked up their most impressive win of the year as they led the Bruins' top pairing of Courtney Dolehide and Andrea Remynse (No. 13 in the nation) 6-5. However, UCLA's duo fought back to force a tiebreaker and completed the doubles sweep with a 7-6 (7-3) win.
UCLA clinched the dual with straight-set victories out of No. 61 Andrea Remynse (6-0, 6-1 over Julia Metzger ) at No. 3, Carling Seguso (6-2, 6-4 over Rabea Stuckemann ) at No. 6 and No. 90 Courtney Dolehide (6-2, 6-3 over Lana Buttner ) at No. 5.
Smatova (No. 116 nationally) got Oregon on the board by pulling out a straight-set victory over 58th-ranked Jones. The senior battled through a tight first set and got stronger as the match progressed to eventually win 7-5, 6-3. The victory is her first over a ranked opponent during the dual season.
At the No. 2 spot, Skowronski took her first set against No. 44 Noelle Hickey. With the score tied 4-4 in the second set, Hickey forced a super tiebreaker set by winning two straight games and eventually downing Skowronski (3-6, 6-4, 10-3). Neubert got fire in the middle of her match with No. 112 Pamela Montez to force a third set, but Montez outlasted the freshman (6-4, 1-6, 6-4).
The Ducks are back in action on April 8 when they travel to Long Beach State.

The reasons given for developing the booster in parallel with the NASA Saturn I of the same class were that the solid fuel boosters and storable (although corrosive and toxic) liquid propellants of the core provided a vehicle with improved readiness compared to the Saturn. However USAF 'ownership' (no NASA claims of priority) and the NIH (Not Invented Here) syndrome were probably more important factors.
Whatever the controversies at its genesis, the Titan has outlived the Saturn and will continue in use in the 21st century. It was originally conceived as a carrier of manned military spacecraft - first the X-20A Dynasoar, then the Gemini B and Manned Orbiting Laboratory, and finally lifting body spaceplanes in support of MOL follow-on space stations. All of these projects were cancelled in turn. Titans have been used instead to launch unmanned military spacecraft, ranging from heavy photoreconnaisance platforms in low earth orbit to geosynchronous communications, missile launch detection, and ELINT satellites.
After NASA junked the Saturn launch vehicle family in the mid-1970's, and the Challenger disaster in the 1980's, Titans were used for launching NASA deep-space probes. Whatever trouble NASA managed to get itself into, the Titan was still there to keep its planetary exploration program going.

Offensive line coach Howard Mudd, whose 11 years with the Indianapolis Colts made him the longest serving assistant coach in the NFL until he retired after Super Bowl XLIV, served as a consultant at the New Orleans Saints training camp and said the experience was an eye opener.
Mudd's brief stint ended Wednesday, but he said he leaves in many ways more impressed with the Saints than he was when the Saints beat the Colts in the Super Bowl.
"I really enjoy this atmosphere," he said following Wednesday afternoon's practice. "(Coach) Sean (Payton) has just been fabulous about this whole thing and he's made me feel really welcome so it's really cool.
Along with Colts offensive coordinator Tom Moore, Mudd helped fashion Indianapolis into one of the most feared offenses in the NFL; one that racked up routine double-digit win seasons and two trips to the Super Bowl. Many of the elements critical to the Colts long-term success are also in abundance in New Orleans, he said.
"The culture they've created, the compatibility of the management with coaching staff, scouts with coaches, coaches with players, players with players - all of those interacting relationships seem to be compatible," Mudd said. "Dramatically compatible, there's not any opposition. Not because you won the championship, because I'll bet it was that way last year and the year before.
"That starts with (general manager) Mickey (Loomis) and Sean," he added. "It's not like they all sit around the campfire and sing 'Kumbaya,' they work really hard. Their expectations are very high and all that, but they have their reference points for work and how people are treated, and who they pick and who they will bring in here, what they will tolerate and what they won't tolerate. There's a reason it feels this way."
Saints offensive line coach Aaron Kromer met Mudd in the offseason when they spoke at a clinic in Cincinnati and asked Mudd if he would be interested in coming to Metairie briefly in a consulting role. He first visited the Saints in June, though most of his time then was spent brainstorming with Kromer and some of the other coaches.
The feel, he said ("and I hope I'm not insulting anyone here") is very similar to that Coach Tony Dungy fostered in Indianapolis when the Colts launched their current long run as one of the league's elite teams.
"You could take the black and white shirts you see here and switch them with the blue and white shirts up there and you kind of wouldn't know the difference," he said. "The way they work, all that stuff."
After practice, Mudd and quarterback Drew Brees spoke for several minutes at mid-field in what the smiles indicated was a very friendly conversation. Mudd said the two didn't speak of Brees' MVP performance that led the Saints over the Colts in Super Bowl XLIV.
"Oh, we had a little conversation about Peyton, that was about it," Mudd said. "We were fooling around a little bit, but nothing, he's just a real friendly guy.
"And an incredible competitor," Mudd said, shaking his head. In his career Mudd has worked with Dan Fouts and Warren Moon, who have busts in Canton as well as Manning, who will. Brees is undoubtedly at that same point in his career where he is now playing for a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
"Those two players," Mudd said of Manning and Brees. "That part of it, those two players are so much alike. How smart they are, what they're built like emotionally, their work ethic, what they expect from the people around them, what they expect from themselves. I'm telling you, it's an incredible level. There's a reason these guys are the focal point of the whole team but they're not the whole team themselves."

Canyon County Animal Control brought the dog to the shelter. She had been shot twice and was covered with blood. According to reports the 5-year-old Akita was shot in the face and chest.
"They got her into surgery right away and were able to save her," said Barb Hutchinson, who is the shelter's executive director.
"She's up, she's active, she's ready to go to a foster home if someone can put some time in for her," explained Talitha Neher, a veterinarian at the shelter.
Shelter workers hope the community pulls together to help with expenses for the dog they are calling Winnie.
"We only have so much money to spend on injured and sick animals," Hutchinson said.
The cost of surgery and Winnie's aftercare is about $3,000. If you would like to help contact the Canyon County Animal Shelter at 208-455-5920.
Winnie should be available for adoption next month after being placed in a foster home to fully recover.

Senior Mel Mandelbaum moved to second place on the Tulane career assists list against Tulsa on Friday
Nov. 8, 2013
TULSA, Okla. - Tulane's volleyball squad accomplished a feat no other Conference USA opponent has done during the 2013 season, handing the Tulsa Golden Hurricane their first league loss in a straight-set victory at the Donald W. Reynolds Center in Tulsa, Okla., on Friday evening.
Tulane (23-3, 9-2) had not defeated Tulsa (21-5, 10-1) since the 2009 season, losing six straight to one of the country's top programs. However, Tulane needed just three sets on Friday night to get past the previously undefeated Golden Hurricane, winning 25-19, 25-23 and 25-16.
"I think we executed our plan well," said director of Tulane volleyball Sinisa Momic. "We were able to stop their hitters early and we were able to understand what their offense was trying to do. On top of that, we had a great dig match. We had 80 digs, and that was against the team leading the nation in digs. We pushed their offense, giving them fewer options as the match went on. Our offense outmatched them and our defense outmatched them, and I'm proud of the team."
Senior setter Mel Mandelbaum jumped two spots in the Tulane career assists list, jumping both Luna Rebrovic for third and Megan Murdock for second. With 44 assists - over twice as many as Tulsa notched as a team - Mandelbaum now has 3,399 for her illustrious career.
Junior libero Grace Weaver also notched a notable feat, as her 25 digs gives her 424 on the season, passing Kelli Dickson's 2005 dig total of 410 for the tenth-most in a single season in Tulane history, and actually tying Karlyn Daly's 2002 total for the ninth-most in single season history. Weaver's huge total on the night - a match high - puts her just 23 shy of moving to seventh on the single-season record books, passing Kim Sentmore's 438 dig total in 2000 and Kelli Dickson's 446 dig total achieved during the 2004 campaign.
Weaver was not the only Green Wave volleyballer to have a solid night digging the ball, as senior Cori Martone notched 21 digs, while Mandelbaum (13) and freshman Annie Shurtz (10) also posted double-digit dig totals.
The 80 digs on the season are the second-most by the Green Wave this season, as they posted a dig total of 86 against Youngstown State in early September.
Offensively, freshman Tea Juric led the team in kills with 16, while Martone added 14, giving her a double-double. Mandelbaum also posted a double-double on the evening.
At the net, Tulane only posted six blocks, with freshman Sarah Strasner leading the way with four total (one solo). Shurtz chipped in three total (one solo).
The Green Wave went into the break with a 2-0 lead over the league's best team, thanks in part to 17 digs from Martone and 11 from Weaver. Offensively, Juric and Martone tied for the team lead in kills with nine through the first two sets.
While the Golden Hurricane led early during the first set, Tulane stormed back to take the lead after tying things at 12. From that point forward, the Green Wave led through the remainder of the action. Leading 15-14, Tulane scored the next four points on kills by Juric and Martone, as well as a block from Shurtz and an attack error from Tulsa. Despite a valiant comeback attempt by the Golden Hurricane to put things at 20-19, the Green Wave rattled off the next five points to take the first set.
Looking to take the lead going into intermission, things were a little bit closer, but Tulane still came out on top. The set was tied at 20, 21, 22 and 23, but Tulane posted two straight points on kills from Martone and Juric to end the set.
The final set was all Tulane, however, as Tulane jumped out to a 13-2 lead. They didn't let down, either, as Juric paced the squad with seven kills along the way.
Tulane avenged their loss to North Texas last Sunday in the biggest way on Friday night. With this victory, the Green Wave are riding high as they head into the last three matches of the regular season.
"Coming from a loss, we understood that we had to be prepared to play tough matches," added Momic. "There is no room for sloppy play or sloppy moments. We have to be focused, and that is how we played tonight. Even during game two, when we only won by two, we played focused. Our stats show that we played amazing on defense, and our offense was good, as usual."
With the straight-set victory, Tulane moves to 13-0 in three-set matches this season.
Tulane will head down to Texas on Sunday for a match against Rice. The tilt between the two teams will begin at 1pm CST, and live stats can be followed on TulaneGreenWave.com.

The Actions and Operational Thinking of Generals Stratemeyer and Partridge during the Korean War: Adjusting to Political Restrictions of Air Campaigns
Date: May 2008
Creator: Sambaluk, Nicholas Michael
Description: Airpower played an important supporting role in the Korean War, and as General of the Army Douglas MacArthur pursued victory in the war and President Harry S Truman's objectives altered throughout the first year of the conflict, tension arose between the two men. One issue in these frictions was the restriction of airpower. Not only MacArthur, but also his admiring subordinate Lieutenant General George E. Stratemeyer commanding the Far East Air Forces, and Fifth Air Force commander Major General Earle E. Partridge opposed the restrictions which had been imposed on airmen from the outset of the conflict. Stratemeyer did so partly because of his loyalty to MacArthur, who wanted latitude in coping with the situation in the field and defeating the Communist enemy. Partridge did so because he thought they endangered his personnel and limited the effectiveness of airpower in the war. These commanders had a fundamentally different opinion from Washington regarding the likelihood of overt Soviet intervention in the war, and because they did not think the Korean War would become a world war, they were more willing than Washington to prosecute the war more aggressively. MacArthur's conflict ended with his removal in April 1951, and Stratemeyer (who suffered ...

The Administration of Spain Under Charles V, Spain's New Charlemagne
Date: May 2005
Creator: Beard, Joseph
Description: Charles I, King of Spain, or Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, was the most powerful ruler in Europe since Charlemagne. With a Germanic background, and speaking French, Charles became King of Spain in 1516. Yet secondary sources and available sixteenth century Spanish sources such as Spanish Royal Council records, local records of Castro Urdiales in Castile, and Charles's correspondence show that he continued the policies of his predecessors in Spain, Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castile. He strove to strengthen his power and unify Spain and his empire using Castilian strength, a Castilian model of government, Roman law, religion, his strong personality, and a loyal and talented bureaucracy. Charles desired to be another Charlemagne, but with his base of power in Spain.

Aliens and atheists: The Plurality of Worlds and Natural Theology in Seventeenth-Century England.
Date: December 2007
Creator: Oliver, Ryan
Description: The plurality of worlds has had a long history in England, which has not gone unnoticed by scholars. Historians have tended to view this English pluralist tradition as similar to those found on the continent, and in doing so have failed to fully understand the religious significance that the plurality of worlds had on English thought and society. This religious significance is discovered through a thorough investigation of plurality as presented by English natural philosophers and theologians, and in so doing reveals much about England in the seventeenth century. As natural philosophers incorporated plurality within the larger framework of natural theology, it became a weapon of science and reason to be used against the unreasonable atheists of late seventeenth-century England.

The American Doctrine for the Use of Naval Gunfire in Support of Amphibious Landings: Myth vs. Reality in the Central Pacific of World War II.
Date: December 2006
Creator: Mitchener, Donald Keith
Description: The United States Marine Corps and the United States Navy developed during the interwar period a doctrine that addressed the problems inherent in the substitution of naval gunfire for artillery support in an amphibious assault. The invasion of Betio Islet, Tarawa Atoll, in November of 1943 was the first test of this doctrine. It has been said many times since the war that the doctrine basically passed this test and that lessons learned at Tarawa increased the efficiency with which the Marine Corps and Navy applied the prewar doctrine during the rest of the war. An analysis of the planning and execution of naval bombardments in the Central Pacific Campaign, after the invasion of the Gilberts, does not support this claim. This analysis leads the researcher to three conclusions. First, the Japanese developed defenses against many of the effects of the gunfire support doctrine that blunted much of the force of American firepower. American planners were slow to recognize the implications of these changes and, consequently, were slow to react to them. Second, many naval commanders responsible for providing naval gunfire support for Central Pacific operations still equated tonnage of ordnance to effectiveness of bombardment, regardless of their frequent references ...

Amon Carter: The Founder of Modern Fort Worth, 1930-1955
Date: May 2005
Creator: Cervantez, Brian
Description: From 1930 to 1955, Amon Carter, publisher of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, exerted his power to create modern Fort Worth. Carter used his stature as the publisher of the city's major newspaper to build a modern city out of this livestock center. Between 1930 and 1955, Carter lobbied successfully for New Deal funds for Fort Worth, persuaded Consolidated Aircraft to build an airplane plant in the city, and convinced Burlington Railways to stay in the city. He also labored unsuccessfully to have the Trinity River Canal built and to secure a General Motors plant for Fort Worth. These efforts demonstrate that Carter was indeed the founder of modern Fort Worth.

Baptists and Britons: Particular Baptist Ministers in England and British Identity in the 1790s
Date: December 2005
Creator: Parnell, John Robert
Description: This study examines the interaction between religious and national affiliations within a Dissenting denomination. Linda Colley and Jonathan Clark argue that religion provided the unifying foundation of national identity. Colley portrays a Protestant British identity defined in opposition to Catholic France. Clark favors an English identity, based upon an Anglican intellectual hegemony, against which only the heterodox could effectively offer criticism. Studying the Baptists helps test those two approaches. Although Methodists and Baptists shared evangelical concerns, the Methodists remained within the Church of England. Though Baptists often held political views similar to the Unitarians, they retained their orthodoxy. Thus, the Baptists present an opportunity to explore the position of orthodox Dissenters within the nation. The Baptists separated their religious and national identities. An individual could be both a Christian and a Briton, but one attachment did not imply the other. If the two conflicted, religion took precedent. An examination of individual ministers, specifically William Winterbotham, Robert Hall, Mark Wilks, Joseph Kinghorn, and David Kinghorn, reveals a range of Baptist views from harsh criticism of to support for the government. It also shows Baptist disagreement on whether faith should encourage political involvement and on the value of the French Revolution. Baptists ...

Battle for the Punchbowl: The U. S. 1st Marine Division 1951 Fall Offensive of the Korean War
Date: August 2007
Creator: Montandon, Joshua W.
Description: This study is an operational and tactical study of a battle fought by the U. S. 1st Marine Division near "the Punchbowl," an extinct volcano of military value in the Taebaek Mountains of Korea, from late August through mid September 1951. That engagement was to be the last 1st Marine Division offensive of the Korean War. This battle, for Yoke and Kanmubong Ridges, has received little coverage from historians. That it is all but forgotten is surprising, since it was one of the hardest fought for United States Marines in the war. The casualties were high, and Americans did not understand why so many had to die for a war that seemed to already be set to conclude by negotiations. This study tells the story of that battle more completely than ever before, and assesses its significance to the course of the Korean War.

Booze, Boomtowns, and Burning Crosses: The Turbulent Governorship of Pat M. Neff of Texas, 1921-1925
Date: August 2005
Creator: Stanley, Mark
Description: Pat M. Neff served as governor of Texas from 1921 to 1925, a period marked by political conflict between rural conservatives and urban progressives. Neff, a progressive, found himself in the middle of this conflict. Neff supported prohibition, declared martial law in the oil boomtown of Mexia, and faced the rise of the Ku Klux Klan as a political force in Texas. Though often associated with the Klan, Neff did not approve of the organization and worked against it whenever possible. During the Railroad Shopmen's Strike of 1922, Neff stalled the federal government in its demand he send troops to Denison just long enough to win re-nomination. William Jennings Bryan mentioned Neff as a possible candidate for the presidency in 1924, but he pursued a back-door strategy that alienated his political base among Texas Democrats.

The Break-up of the Confederate Trans-Mississippi Army, 1865
Date: May 2001
Creator: Clampitt, Brad R.
Description: Unlike other Confederate armies at the conclusion of the Civil War, General Edmund Kirby Smith's Trans-Mississippi Army disbanded, often without orders, rather than surrender formally. Despite entreaties from military and civilian leaders to fight on, for Confederate soldiers west of the Mississippi River, the surrender of armies led by Generals Robert E. Lee and Joseph E. Johnston ended the war. After a significant decline in morale and discipline throughout the spring of 1865, soldiers of the Confederate Trans-Mississippi Department chose to break-up and return home. As compensation for months of unpaid service, soldiers seized both public and private property. Civilians joined the soldiers to create disorder that swept many Texas communities until the arrival of Federal troops in late June.

We know tennis star, Serena Williams can do some talking with her tennis racquet on a tennis court, but it turns out she can also sing some tunes as she gets ready for this year's U.S. Open in New York.
On Wednesday, August 20th at Arena in New York City, world No. 1, Serena Williams joined with Delta Air Lines for the first ever Delta Open Mic with some of her celebrity friends.
Word is, she was pretty good.
Who knew?
It turns out, Serena is a big fan of karaoke.
And she has her favorite genres.
"I do like 80s, 90s rock because it's good for my voice," Williams said before going on stage. "The thing about karaoke is picking a song that works for your voice."
But unlike being on the tennis court, Serena said she was out of her comfort zone.
"I'm really nervous," added Williams.
Those there to support Serena and her endeavor were Orange Is The New Black's Uzo Aduba and Laverne Cox, her comedian friend Kathy Griffin, 30 Rock actress Katrina Bowden, Glee's Darren Criss, personal trainer Shaun T and ATP World Tour player, Jack Sock.
They were all there to hear and sing their favorite tunes to get ready for for last major tennis tournament of the year, starting on Monday.
Williams, a karaoke enthusiast, kicked off the night by channeling her inner Marilyn with "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend," followed by Laverne Cox's memorable rendition of "One Moment in Time." The two were met with a resounding round of applause by fellow karaoke buffs and Delta guests.
On the court or off, Serena Williams is full of surprises and always in her comfort zone. A big fortnight of tennis lies ahead for the superstar as she tries to win another major title.


text: Jan 10, 2013 22:08 'Superman: Earth One Vol. 2' not bulletproof 'Superman: Earth One Vol. 2' not bulletproof Superman: Earth One Vol. 2 Reviewer's Rating: ★★1/2 Langdon Herrick| Special to theadvocate.com Nov. 1, 2012; 11:24 a.m. Comments How does one reinvent the character that invented the superhero genre? Modern-day superhero comics have gotten a second wind by knocking the invincible heroes of our parents' generation off their pedestals and dragging them through the dirt. With "Superman: Earth One Volume 1," writer Michael J. Straczynski tugged Superman by the cape and pulled him down to our level. "Volume 2" presents our new Man of Steel with some real-world problems that can't be solved by his Kryptonian physiology alone. While it's a great improvement over the first volume, a shallow villain and a few narrative missteps keep this new story from soaring. "Earth One: Volume 2" features a Clark Kent who has overcome his identity crisis from the first book and accepted his destiny as a superhero, but who still has yet to find his footing as a reporter. Drawing on years of experience as a journalist, Straczynski makes Clark's job as a reporter at the Daily Planet feel challenging and exciting. Watching Clark struggle to find his voice as a writer is a handy way to show that he still doesn't know quite what he stands for as a superhero either. Less effective is Lois Lane's arc. The running gag of Lois not recognizing that the man of her dreams is just her co-worker sans glasses and wearing a cape only works when she's too busy chasing after her next big story to sit down and give it some thought. Unfortunately, this time around that's all she does, as she researches Clark's background and tries to figure out how some nobody from Smallville, Kan., got an exclusive interview with Superman himself. Unfortunately, she never puts two and two together, which makes her depiction as a competent reporter questionable at best. Clark also gets a seedy new neighborhood in which to live, as well as a new love interest, Lisa. To its credit, "Earth One Vol. 2" takes into consideration the inherent dangers of romantic entanglement between the Man of Steel and frail earth women, and it really adds to the isolation that forms the core of Straczynski's take on the character. This guy is his own fortress of solitude, and watching someone try to pull him out of it is fun. While it's nice to see the last son of Kyrpton fawn over someone other than Lois for a change, the new girl feels like little more than a buxom, girl power-infused Mary Jane from Spider-man, i.e. wish fulfillment for all the quiet, bookish males of the world out there. It's not much of a superhero book without a bad guy to threaten the world, and "Earth One: Vol. 2" resurrects the classic power-stealing villain known as the Parasite, who absorbs the energy of anyone he touches. The Parasite is a rare supervillain in that he doesn't necessarily harm people because he wants to, but because he must keep feeding on them to survive. The best depictions of this character are the ones you both despise and occasionally pity. Unfortunately, Straczynski tosses that baby out with the bathwater in his completely new take on the Parasite. This version is a psychopath who was born bad, stayed bad, and only got worse when he stumbled into an accident in a secret lab and became a super-powered monster. His only goal? Kill every single person on the planet, one by one. It's a classic case of "He's evil, don't ask why, just go with it," and it saps the story of any drama when he and Superman have their inevitable duel for the fate of the world. It's a shame that, in a re-launch that tries to inject some moral complexity into a character often criticized for being one-dimensionally good, he is pitted against a villain who is so one-dimensionally bad. Shane Davis returns from the first volume with his realistic take on Superman's world. Gone are the pristine, high-tech, art deco streets of the Metropolis we're used to seeing, replaced by what looks pretty much like New York City. One could argue that this less starry-eyed look at the world robs Superman of the wonder and optimism that has been a hallmark of the character for the better part of a century, but the grimmer visuals are in step with the new direction of the story. While some may argue that it's not Superman's job to stoop to our level, but our job to rise to his, "Superman: Earth One: Volume 2" is an interesting take on a hero that is as accessible to new fans as it is potentially frustrating to veteran comic book nerds. However, readers hungry for a grimier take on a goody-goody character will find a lot to love in this book. Get The Advocate in your inbox Subscribe

text: 15 February 2013 archive See all show photos THE London Fashion Week schedule is packed full of Central Saint Martins alumni and following last night's MA show is bound to be full of a whole lot more come next season. But among those of the old guard are husband and wife duo Clements Ribeiro - Suzanne and Inacio respectively. Over the years the pair have coined a bohemian and eclectic sense of elegance - always pretty and always fairly reliable. But this morning they looked to go punkier for next season and take urban influences to reignite their fashion flame. Collars came punctuated with jewels and shoes pointed at the toe, pleated kilts or skirts that buckled across the waist and more buckles to toughen up floral-embroidered coats - this was a rougher and tougher take, something which was backed up by the prevalent use of red and black lace throughout on dresses and pencil skirts. But there was still just enough of that romantic bohemia to appeal to its loyal clientele - floral day dresses in gold and turquoise, little cardigan bombers. There was a millennium relapse for a skirt over a trouser (just watch this spread now), and there was a distinct continuation of the trend for tartan and plaid that we saw last season. More punk than pretty, at times they seemed to stray perhaps too far from the stomping crowd they have made their own. With thanks to Mercedes Benz Jessica Bumpus Continue reading Back to top
