With widespread power outages still plaguing a multistate swath from Indiana to Virginia after the severe "derecho" event on Friday night, the late June heat wave continues to make headlines. Numerous all-time high temperature records were set on Saturday, with additional records expected to be set during the first few days of July.
Atlanta set an all-time high temperature record on Saturday of 106°F, beating the old record of 105°F set in 1980. Columbus, GA also set an all-time record, with 106°F, beating the record of 105°F set on June 29, and Macon, GA tied its all-time high of 108°F, which was last observed in 1980, according to the National Weather Service.
Several locations in Tennessee also set all-time record highs on Saturday. Knoxville set an all-time record high of 105°F, breaking the previous mark of 104°F set in 1930. Tri-cities broke their all-time high temperature record of 102 when the temperature reached 103°F.
Charlotte and Raleigh, N.C. both tied their all-time high temperature records as well.
It is unusual for all-time high temperature records to be set during June, since July and August typically feature more intense heat events than those that take place during early summer.
For the seven-day period from June 24-30, 1,924 daily high temperature records were set or tied in the U.S., along with 634 warm overnight low temperature records. Of these records, 565 set or tied monthly high temperature records, and 67 set or tied monthly warm overnight low temperature records.
Remarkably, 155 all-time record high temperatures were set or tied during this period, along with nine all-time record warm overnight lows.
For the year-to-date, there have been 40,113 warm temperature records set or tied, compared to just 5,835 cold records. (These figures, compiled by the National Climatic Data Center, are preliminary.) In other words, the warm temperature records have been outnumbering cold records by about 7-to-1.
In a long-term trend that demonstrates the effects of a warming climate, daily record-high temperatures have recently been outpacing daily record-lows by an average of 2-to-1, and this imbalance is expected to grow as the climate continues to warm.

Does Brandi Glanville have a beef with meat dress wearer Lady Gaga? The "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star is noticeably absent from Gaga's decadent new "G.U.Y." video, despite the fact that nearly all of her "RHOBH" co-stars have cameos in it.
According to a March 24 report from Us Weekly, Glanville couldn't participate in the shoot at the legendary Hearst Castle in California last month because she was too busy. The 41-year-old reality star was in New York promoting her second book, Drinking and Dating.
Gaga's recently released video features cameos by "RHOBH" alums Lisa Vanderpump, Kim and Kyle Richards, Carlton Gebbia, Yolanda Foster, who play instruments in the clip. Bravo host Andy Cohen also appears in the seven-minute video, as does Vanderpump's beloved Pomeranian, Giggy.
Fellow "Housewives" cast mate Joyce Giraud was asked to participate in the project but declined following the grueling 'RHOBH" reunion.
In an interview with "Access Hollywood," Lady Gaga explained the reason for the "Housewives" cameos to guest correspondent Johnny Weir: "Where we have arrived as a society and how we view things in pop culture, and how everything's become such a commodity so fast that it's almost as if a figure like Jesus and a figure like Lisa Vanderpump – everyone sort of starts to sit in the same place on your cell phone," she said.
You can see Lady Gaga's "G.U.Y." video here.

edna mae's sour cream pancakes
Pancakes, to be specific. And not just pancakes, but sour cream pancakes. And not just any sour cream pancakes but Ree Drummond's Husband's Grandma Edna Mae's Sour Cream Pancakes, which I suspect were always served before 8 a.m. I mean, I've been out to that ranch, I know how early they wake up, and curiously, with a lot less complaint that yours truly. Maybe I can send Jacob out there next time?
I liked these pancakes. They took no time to put together, they kept that tangy sour cream flavor I adore, and they were barely sweet which is an essential contrast when you drown your pancakes in as much maple syrup as we here do. Next time, however, I look forward to eating them at the proper weekend hour of noon.
One year ago: Chicken Milanese and an Escarole Salad
Two years ago: Leek and Swiss Chard Tart
Three years ago: Sweet and Spicy Candied Pecans
Edna Mae's Sour Cream Pancakes
Adapted from The Pioneer Woman Cooks
Ree says this makes 12 4-inch pancakes; I got 8 that were closer to 5 inches
7 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/ 2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sour cream (I swapped some with yogurt when I realized I was short, to no ill-effect)
2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Maple syrup (or perhaps some Cranberry Syrup)
Heat a cast iron skillet or griddle over medium-low heat; you want it to slowly get nice and hot.
Stir the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt together in the bottom of a medium bowl. Dump the sour cream in on top and stir it together very gently; it's okay to leave the texture a bit uneven. Whisk the eggs and vanilla in a separate bowl and stir them into the sour cream mixture, once again, being careful not to overmix.
Melt about a tablespoon of butter in your skillet or griddle and pour the batter in, a scant 1/4 cup at a time. Cook for about 2 minutes on the first side, or until bubbles appear all over the surface [See Pancakes 101 for this and other tips], flipping them carefully and cooking for about a minute on the other side. Repeat with remaining batter.
Serve in a stack, topped with a pat of butter and a cascade of maple syrup.

Basics of the E Form on the Guitar
On the guitar, like the A form, the E form is a standard barre chord shape. You use it to form major chords for notes along the 6th string, as shown here. You can form it into some unique chord voicings, especially when you use the extra note found in its arpeggio pattern.
Here, you add only one note to the E form shape to complete the arpeggio pattern: a 3rd interval on the 5th string. Play it as a scale.
Here, you play some of the E form chord voicings heard in popular music.
A is a common F chord that guitarists usually learn together with basic open chords. You can always play a full E form barre chord partially like this, and you can still visually track the root on the 6th string when you do.
B is similar to the preceding F shape, but it's reduced even further to include only the first three strings. This E/Gs is used in Gloria by Van Morrison. Even though you're fretting and playing only strings 1 through 3, you can still track the root E on the 6th string with your eye.
C is the Bf/F used in the opening to Johnny B. Goode by Chuck Berry.
D uses a unique spacing of the root and third and is featured in the song Tripping Billies by Dave Matthews Band. This interval is often called a 10th because the 3rd is a register above the root, ten steps in the major scale.
E is an inverted 3rd with the root in the top position and the 3rd in the bass. It's used as a B/Ds and an A/Cs in the opening to Hold On Loosely by 38 Special.
F is a G/B with some unique spacing that's arpeggiated in the opening to Cliffs of Dover by Eric Johnson.
Other songs that use chord voicings based on the E form include
Another Brick in the Wall (Part II) by Pink Floyd
Burning Love by Elvis Presley
Caught Up in You by 38 Special
Domino by Van Morrison
Eye of the Tiger by Survivor
Good Lovin' by The Young Rascals
Life's Been Good by Joe Walsh
Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard by Paul Simon
Santeria by Sublime
Soul Man by Sam & Dave.
Under the Bridge by Red Hot Chili Peppers

Post-Game Press Conference Video: Pondexter, Suggs and Romar
SEATTLE (AP) - Quincy Pondexter and his Washington Huskies knew they'd get back in the Pac-10 race to truly defend their conference title.
Well, at least they hoped so.
"We had a feeling it would come back to us, with how wacky the Pac-10's been this year," Pondexter said late Thursday night.
The league has done just that.
The Huskies' leader scored 30 points on an array of post moves and Venoy Overton sank six free throws in the final minute to vault Washington back into a wild conference race with an 81-75 victory over co-leading Arizona.
Overton made his deciding free throws in the final 50 seconds for the Huskies (15-7, 5-5 Pac-10) after the Wildcats (11-10, 6-4) had battled back from 10 points down to within 73-71 with 33 seconds to go.
"I think we're starting to get the feel of what it's like to compete at a high level and win a championship," said Pondexter, remembering his team was at the bottom of the jumbled Pac-10 just two weeks ago. "That's our goal, and we are only one game away."
California, the conference's co-leader entering Thursday, lost at Southern California. So victorious UCLA and Arizona State are in a four-way tie with the Wildcats and Bears for the Pac-10 lead at 6-4. Eight games remain in the regular season.
The Huskies host the Sun Devils on Saturday night.
Washington, 0-6 on the road this season, improved to 33-2 at home since the start of last season.
"Everyone's confident now," Overton said. "I feel like we're going to make a strong run in the Pac-10."
Freshman Lamont Jones had 14 points for Arizona, which had won its last four games. Leading scorer Nic Wise was just 4-for-17 from the field for 12 points. And second-leading scorer Derrick Williams fouled out with three points without even playing 8 minutes of the foul-filled game, which has become typical of Pac-10 play this season.
They watched Pondexter pour in the same number of points Wise had dropped on Cal last weekend to put the surprising young Wildcats into first place this late in a season for the first time since 2005.
"I thought he was fantastic," first-year Arizona coach Sean Miller said of Pondexter. "I think he's one of the best forwards that plays college basketball."
A fan threw something on the floor from the upper rows of the arena just as the game was getting taut, with Washington leading 53-52 midway through the second half. Huskies coach Lorenzo Romar stomped out of a huddle and berated the man, throwing his arms up and yelling, "C'mon!"
The man was led out of the arena by police. Pondexter responded for him.
He scored on a jump shot. Then Wise threw away a pass, and Washington's Scott Suggs tipped the ball to Pondexter for a breakaway two-handed slam that got the crowd roaring. Pondexter added two free throws and a tip-in off a carom high off the backboard. Presto - eight consecutive points had the Huskies up 61-52 with 8:52 left.
Pondexter got a rude bump in his joyride with 5:42 left when Arizona's Kevin Parrom, his primary defender all night, elbowed him in the ribs while fighting through a screen. Pondexter rolled on the floor for a painful moment but stayed in the game.
So did Arizona.
The Wildcats went on a 14-3 run to get within 71-69 with 1:19 left on a 3-pointer by Wise and one of two free throws by Kyle Fogg.
Arizona's Alex Jacobson got the rebound on Fogg's miss, but Wise air-balled a long, rushed jumper that would have tied it.
"I wish I could have that possession back," Miller said. "That was the one time I thought we could seize control of the game."
Instead, Overton then made two free throws with 50 seconds remaining to put the Huskies up 73-69. The 77 percent free throw shooter made four more and finished 9 for 10 from the line to seal the win.
Pondexter scored just seven points in Washington's 17-point loss at Arizona on Jan. 10. Justin Holiday didn't even make that trip because of academic technicalities.
Holiday, a 6-foot-6 junior long on arms and tenacity, drew the defensive assignment on Jamelle Horne after Horne had a career-high 22 points against the Huskies in Tucson.
Horne took just two shots and scored two points Thursday while saddled with foul trouble.
Holiday did everything but place Arizona on its team bus to begin the second half. He blocked Wise inside, then twice fed deft passes to Tyreese Breshers on the other end for scores. Holiday also blocked Kyryl Natyazhko inside, despite giving up 4 inches to the Ukrainian center, as Washington turned a six-point halftime deficit into a 48-41 lead in just 5 minutes.
"He's everywhere. You see that?" Pondexter said of Holiday. "He does so many other things, you can't calculate it."

(10:25 a.m.) Update: Norwegian Coastal Voyage's Fram was launched this weekend, and we've just got news that a godmother has been named ... the Crown Princess Mette Marit of Norway. She will officially name the ship during its christening on May 19, 2007 in Oslo.
Norwegian Coastal Voyage's 12,700-ton, 136-cabin new-build may be considered small, but on Saturday morning (November 18) Fram will take a big step toward its completion. The ship will be floated out at Fincantieri's Trieste shipyard in Italy.
"Float out" is a shipyard term that refers to the process by which the building dock is slowly filled with water until the ship is afloat. The ship is then pulled by a tug boat to the outfitting dock where interior construction begins.
Fram's exterior was specifically designed to brave the Arctic cold ... but interior amenities are also state-of-the-art (for an expedition ship), including a fitness room, sauna and two Jacuzzis. A restaurant, Internet cafe, two bars, conference rooms and a library filled with books on the polar region round out the public and social spaces.
Fram is expected to be delivered on April, 20, 2007, then christened on May 19, 2007 in Oslo. She will be part of the fleet's Expedition Cruises program launched this past June. Her summer months will be spent sailing three different Greenland itineraries through November, before undertaking a 66-night pole-to-pole cruise to Antarctica and South America. Once there, the ship will sail 13-night itineraries from Chile to Antarctica.
Can't wait to board the ship? Norwegian Coastal Voyage is already booking trips to Greenland with a savings of up to $300 per person.
Fun Fact: NCV's Fram was named after a wooden ship used by Norwegian explorer Fridtjof Nansen in the late 1800's for a three-year expedition around Greenland.

You know, I've got mouths to feed. Plus a family. Some of them have mouths, too.-->-- ''Series/{{Angel}}''In the same way that having {{extra eyes}} [[EyesDoNotBelongThere in unusual places]] can be unnerving, a creature with extra mouths can also be horrific, in a different way. The mouth is the organ of consumption, so a creature can be given extra mouths to show that it is a ravenous, [[HorrorHunger hungry]] monstrosity. A massive paunch and lack of other sensory organs will create the image of an organism with no intelligence or purpose other than to eat.To enhance the effect of the mouths, they may be equipped with MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily, or alternatively, might be gross and wide orifices with a thick tongue and smacking lips.But there are many other ways to add mouths, and many places. They can be obvious or discreet, even hidden. They may even have special properties or powers. Their owner can be an EldritchAbomination or a seemingly-normal human, or anything in between.A SuperTrope to BellyMouth, VaginaDentata, NestedMouths. Compare TwoFaced, contrast NoMouth.----!!Examples:[[foldercontrol]][[folder: Anime and Manga ]]* Deidara in ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' has mouths on his palms. They appear to be the result of the Stone Village's kinjutsu, which allows him to infuse chakra into molding clay. By combining this with his Explosion release, he can make explosive clay sculptures of various shapes and sizes. He also has a massive sealed mouth on his ''chest''; feeding clay to that turns his own body into a powerful explosive.* In ''LightNovel/{{Slayers}}'', Copy Rezo has two extra mouths, which is explained in the novels as being a result of also being a chimera (he's a hybrid of Rezo-clone and Mazoku). These mouths are used to utter incantations, though, not to eat or bite. The location of them differs* ''LightNovel/VampireHunterD''. The title character has some sort of parasite that manifests as a face in the palm of his left hand, which has strange, undefined magical powers, most notably the ability to suck in large amounts of material or magical energy at will, which can be used to nullify spells and revive D if he gets killed. It has a mind of its own and can talk to D.* In the ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'' manga, the true forms of Father and Pride are shadow tentacle monsters made up of eyes and mouths. Gluttony can also go OneWingedAngel, opening his fake GateOfTruth in the form of one large mouth down the middle that spits a beam that teleports anything into his "stomach".* In ''Manga/TokyoGhoul'', Noro and Eto both have kagune with mouths growing out of them. Eto's kagune mouths are capable of ''speech'', and tend to engage in random chatter while she's terrorizing her victims. [[spoiler: After devouring Eto's kakuja, Kaneki develops kagune with the same properties]].[[/folder]][[folder: Card Games ]]* The All-Devouring Oni in ''MagicTheGathering'''s Kamigawa storyline was this taken to its logical extreme: a swarming cloud of mouths with dagger-like teeth.* [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Slifer_the_Sky_Dragon Slifer the Sky Dragon]] from ''TabletopGame/YuGiOh'' (both the card game and the anime) has two mouths.[[/folder]][[folder: Comic Books ]]* The [[EyeScream Corinthian]] from Creator/NeilGaiman's comic book series ''ComicBook/TheSandman'' has mouths where his eyes should be.** There's also Azazel, a demon who looks like a black hole in space with many mouths and eyes, and Choronzon, who has two mouths stacked on top of each other.* From Gaiman's ''ComicBook/TheEternals'', there is Morjak, a Deviant who has a second mouth in his stomach.* Choir, an obscure student at the [[ComicBook/XMen Xavier School]], has a ring of mouths around her neck that enable her to throw her voice.[[/folder]][[folder: Fan Works ]]* Many creatures from the Homestuck fan adventure ''Webcomic/AlabasterTheDoomedSession'', and most notably the nightmarish [[http://mspfanventures.com/?s=236&p=2055 Octolon]].[[/folder]][[folder: Film ]]* The xenomorphs from the ''{{Franchise/Alien}}'' movies have a mouth attached to the tongue.[[/folder]][[folder: Literature ]]* In Ramsay Campbell's ''CthulhuMythos'' stories, when the Great Old One Y'golonac ([[RunningGag You Fool]]! You've [[SpeakOfTheDevil doomed us all]]!) possesses a human body, the body has mouths in its palms.* In ''Literature/TurnCoat'', the horde of demonic entities conjured up by Binder appear roughly human-like, but have mouths in both palms that drool disgusting, caustic saliva.* Darren Shan's ''Literature/TheDemonata'' has Artery, one of Lord Loss's familiar demons, who has mouths in his palms, with very sharp teeth in them.* In WayneBarlowe's ''Expedition'', the gigantic creatures called sea striders have mouths in the bottoms of their feet, allowing them to gulp down mouthfulls of the Amoebic Sea just by walking about.* Betelgeusians in the Franchise/StarTrekNovelVerse have two mouths; a beak-like one for speaking with, and a toothy one for eating with. As might be apparent from the description, they're not intended to be frightening or disgusting, just alien.* The harum-sacrum of the ''Literature/GreatShip'' universe have two mouths, one on top of the other. One is connected to their lungs and is used for breathing and talking, while the other links to digestive system. They aren't particularly evil, but do have a reputation for believing in [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking might makes right]].* ''Literature/MissPeregrinesHomeForPeculiarChildren'': Claire Densmore has a backmouth--a second mouth on the back of her head. It's armed with teeth sharper than those in her normal mouth.[[/folder]][[folder: Live Action TV ]]* In the original ''Series/{{Battlestar Galactica|1978}}'' PilotMovie, there was a female singing group, each of whose members had four eyes and two mouths (and apparently they could each sing two different notes).* Rassets/Mandilok, of ''Series/HyakujuuSentaiGaoranger''/''Series/PowerRangersWildForce'', literally embodies this trope.[[/folder]][[folder: Mythology ]]* The Japanese {{Youkai}} Futaguchi Onna (two-mouthed woman) appears as a normal woman with a huge, constantly hungry mouth on the back of her head. Usually the normal mouth rarely eats, while the other one often gorge itself on anything in sight and can use the hair as tentacles.* In Myth/AztecMythology, the primordial EldritchAbomination Cipactli had mouths at ''every joint''.[[/folder]][[folder: Tabletop RPG ]]* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons''. The Gibbering Mouther monster was a human-sized amoeboid life form covered with eyes and mouths. It used the mouths to bite its victims.* ''TabletopGame/VillainsAndVigilantes'' adventure ''Devil's Domain''. Abomination demons had a malevolent face on their chest, which included a large mouth.* ''TabletopGame/CallOfCthulhu'':** ''Dreamlands''. The Maws of Pandemonium spell caused the victim's body to sprout a red-lipped mouth that gibbered and moaned as it drained the victim's magic points. When the victim became unconscious, the mouth fell silent, but started howling again two to 12 hours later.** When the Great Old One Y'golonac possesses a human body, the body has mouths in its palms the same as in the original Ramsay Campbell stories.** Aku-Shin Kage, one of the masks of Nyarlathotep. Dressed in the traditional armor of a samurai, where its face should be is covered in mouths instead.* A common mutation among the daemons and followers of Chaos in ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer}}'' and ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}}''. A classic variant of the Great Unclean One, Greater Daemon of Nurgle, has a giant mouth in its stomach as well as the regular one on its face (and quite often one on the end of its tongue, or of each of its tongues, too. Occasionally on the tips of its fingers, or elsewhere). Flamers of Tzeentch have many gibbering mouths about their bizarre fungoid anatomy, all of them leaking warpfire.[[/folder]][[folder: Video Games ]]* In ''VideoGame/{{Spore}}'', the creature creator allows many mouths to be affixed to a given creature. The abilities provided by mouths don't stack so the main reason for this trope is aesthetics.** There is one practical application for multiple mouths with omnivores. They have one mouth with the highest Bite rating and one mouth with the highest Sing rating. Placing both types on the creature gives them both abilities at max level.* Yogg-Saron, "The Beast with a Thousand Maws" from ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'', who has mouths in place of his nostrils, eyes, and other places where you wouldn't expect an orifice. Those are just the ones you can see.* The monsters in ''VideoGame/DantesInferno'', appropriately called Gluttons and appearing in the circle of Gluttony, have mouths for hands. The boss of Gluttony, Cerberus, is a giant toad-like creature with three worm-like tongues, all decorated with extra mouths.* In ''VideoGame/DiabloIII'':** Belial has two mouths, one on each side of its head.** Ghom has four; one on his face, one on each of his shoulders, and an enormous one across his belly.** [[spoiler:Diablo, once resurrected,]] has an extra mouth in each of its shoulders.* In [[http://www.matazone.co.uk/animpages/feed-the-nine-mouthed-baby-game.html Feed The Nine Mouthed Baby]], the titular baby [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin has nine mouths]].* Several of the bosses in ''VideoGame/SaGa3'' have extra mouths, with the most excessive example being Guha who's nothing but mouths.* Mawile in ''VideoGame/{{Pokemon}}'' is based on the Futakuchi-Onna (see above) and has an extra giant mouth as one of its horns. [[SuperMode Mega Mawile]] gets ''two'' of these.* Triface in ''Videogame/FinalFantasyVIII'' has two large mouth-like appendages on its shoulders. They can bite and spit poison as though they were actual mouths, though only the central mouth can digest food.[[/folder]][[folder: Webcomics ]]* ''Webcomic/DemonEater'' has the titular character join the Human Club, those creatures of his world who for one reason or another wish to emulate humans, but none does it well. The one named Venus has extra eyes and mouths so that she has faces on her left and right profiles.* The {{expy}} of Y'golonac (see Literature) in ''Webcomic/TheUnspeakableVaultOfDoom'' loves to prank other gods by shaking their hands and biting them off.* The Omega Goo from ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'' has [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2002-10-09 several mouths]].* In ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'', Nepeta's lusus, Pounce de Leon, is [[http://cdn.mspaintadventures.com/storyfiles/hs2/02158_1.gif a cat with two mouths.]][[/folder]][[folder: Web Original ]]* In ''{{Tasakeru}}'', [[TheUndead Stalker]] [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast "the Soulsnatcher"]] has a mouth on his palm that he uses to [[YourSoulIsMine extract the souls of his victims]].

Her whole race has this trait, but she's the most frequently seen.* ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'': in the episode "Fear, Itself" The monster [[spoiler: that Raven created with her mind]] has mouths ''all over its body.''* On ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'', Garnet, Pearl and Amethyst's [[FusionDance fused form]] Alexandrite has a second mouth that opens at the base of her chin.* In one episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheRealGhostbusters'', the team was fighting a mob of poltergeists, led by an especially powerful one that had a huge, fanged mouth with a lolling tongue ''on its stomach''. Even more unsettling, ''that'' was the mouth it ''talked'' with.[[/folder]][[folder: Real Life ]]* Mistaken for played straight in one case: The Cambrian sea creature [[http://paleobiology.si.edu/geotime/main/htmlversion/evidence/cam_03.html Hallucigenia]] was first reconstructed with seven tentacles on its back, each bearing a small, beak-like mouth. But as ScienceMarchesOn, it turned out that said tentacles were actually paired legs and the beaks their claws.** Up to date, there was still no Hallucigenia fossil found that shows where the creature's mouth was really located.* Coral colonies can either be regarded as ConjoinedTwins taken UpToEleven, or a single vast, gestalt organism with TooManyMouths.[[/folder]][[folder: Other Media ]]* One of the ''Garbage Pail Kids'', [[MickeyMouse Mickey Mouths]], had mouths all over his body.[[/folder]]----

Give and Take Between Parts: An Interview with Andrew Oesch
October 26, 2011 · Print This Article
CP: How did you start teaching comics?Â
One of the ways we started off creating a dialogue between kids and adults was to try out our lesson ideas with a group of our friends. We would sit down and try out what we wanted to do in class with a couple of friends, this provided us with some feedback and refinement for our plans, but it also generated some awesome examples.
One of the critical story-develop tools and the primary visual vehicle between adults and kids is the series of character books we create. There are a variety of prompts and exercises we have utilized to start the germinating a character. My favorite thus far has been a process of hybridization where we start off asking the kids to draw two types of things. A pretty typical pair is "a food" and "a type of job." The kids make these individual drawings, we put the drawings into bags and everyone picks a pair which they have to combine into a character. This abstract visual mathematics can be confusing, but inevitably leads to good places… a memorable example is "The Apple Wedding Planner." The boy who drew these from the bags was confused at first, somewhat uncertain about what a wedding planner does… but that didn't matter because he could make his own meaning out of the random pairing he had drawn. The next phase in the character-develop is typically drawing a short strip using this character. After that little bit of narrative exploration with the character, we give them a worksheet with prompts to list the character's friends, enemies, special powers, height, weight, fears, and a little bit more narrative about the characters origin story. We end up retyping these stats and combine all the drawings and write-ups into a booklet. Compiling and re-distributing that book has two effects: One, it gets the participants super excited because they see there work in print! And two, the kids get super inspired by each others' creations. They start to utilize other students' creations, creating other characters in response.
Then we give those books to adults, who are equally as excited. We ask them to create adaptations using student characters. Soon we are going to put out our first anthology which features the student work and adult adaptations, so keep an eye out for that. (You can visit Secret Door Projects, to see how Ian G. Cozzens developed the Scar character).

Turbo Session with a Professional Tri Coach from Wheelworx Dublin
Calling all Lanesboro Tri Club Members!!
Do you want to learn new drills, which will benefit your cycling?
Do you want to improve your cycling and gain a better bike time?
Are you someone that hasn't a clue what to do on the turbo?
Do you feel cycling is your weaker sport and could do with improvements but don't know how?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions, well then be at the CoOp Hall on Saturday (24th November) where the training committee will have a Professional Triathlon Coach from Wheelworx Dublin to take club members for a turbo session with a difference! (Starting @ 2:00pm be there 1:45pm for set up!)
This is a Golden Opportunity for our members to come along and train under the instruction of a Professional Triathlete, who will take you through different drills in order to improve your cycling! This session is technique based aimed at all levels from beginners to the more advanced. Members will also have the chance to ask questions and who better to answer than a pro!
And also, to add to it all, the coach has agreed to take members for a short technique based running session on the track, after the turbo session, so bring your runners!
The training committee has worked hard to organise this for the benefit of Lanesboro Tri Club members, therefore we want to see as many members as possible in attendance! Some of our Dublin branch will also be joining us on the day!
Now to the cost! It's FREE to all Club Members!! You will be delighted to hear the club are looking after the cost so all you need to do is turn up with your bike (and turbo if you have one) and bring lots of energy and enthusiasm and of course plenty of questions!!
This really is a brilliant opportunity to improve your cycling! Do it now and enjoy the benefits next year!!
So in brief:
What's on: Turbo training session with a Professional Triathlete from Wheelworx Dublin
When: Saturday 24th November @ 2:00pm (be there @ 1:45pm to set up) (approx. 2hr session)
Where: CoOp Hall Lanesboro
Cost: FREE
What to bring: Bike (&turbo if you have one), towel, drink, runners (for run session), energy & lots of questions.
Looking forward to a great weekend of training!! And perhaps a few well deserved drinks on Saturday night!

I installed Ubuntu on a partition of my MacBook Pro. Wireless connections work fine when I switch to OSX, but the wireless networks are not even detected when I boot Ubuntu. I installed Wicd as a new network manager, but I'm still having the same problem. Ubuntu works on a wired connection though.
I have searched the web for a solution... similar questions have been asked but I have not been able to find a way to fix this problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
