When you have control of 47, move and shimmy across the ledge. Drop down and then run to the door. Stop a bit short so the guards don't hear you. Crouch and open the door and you'll see the target and guards walk past you under the arch way.
Simply follow them until they stop in the next room. After a short conversation, they'll move onto the next room to the right. Keeping to the left side of the stairs, walk past the guard to the left and follow them. When they get into the next room, they'll split up a little but the 2 guards will stop in the room up ahead.
While in the small hallway, look right and take cover behind the little table/desk which is near the exit of that hallway. Wait until the guards get told to move on and one of them will come right up next to you.
Now this may vary, but on Normal he got close enough that I could corner takedown, but on Hard, he did not. So I'll list both versions.
Corner Takedown
- If he's close enough for this do it. Once dead, the target will be in the next room to the left on a PC. She has her back turned and there are no guards near her. So assassinate.
- If the guard does not come close enough, you should have enough intuition to Point Shoot him or you can just pop out and shoot him but PS works better. Doing so, the target will get slighting suspicious and come back around the corner.
Let her do her thing and she'll then turn her back on you. When she does, pop out of cover and kill her.
- Now head back to the guards body and get his disguise. Feel free to go to the end of the original room you killed the guard in and grab the keycard off the desk.
If you don't follow the room up ahead (where the target was originally going), you can now walk around freely through the whole level. So simply head to the exit and you're done!
Doing this, the level took me less than 5mins.
Mission 3: Terminus.
The way you go at the start is a really long route to take. From the start, if you head left, you can take a ladder down into the sewers. A little walk through here, will bring you out right where the Mechanic is. Simply wait for the guards to move and you're free to walk over to him and get his disguise.
Literally, it takes 1 minute to get to that point. Where as going through the hotel lobby and around the back rooms etc, so it takes a lot more time and risks of getting caught.
For mission 20, I noticed that if I walked near the door, and put a bullet in the ground, one of the swat looking guards would come to investigate. At that point, I could subdue, steal the disguise, dump the body, and basically walk straight to the target after she got into the panic room. Only needed a dab of instinct for extra comfort (as I had it), and once in the room, just shoot her in the face. Also, got a silent assassin rating, and was at the phone (end of the mission) when I killed her, without alerting anyone at all. I think my method is pretty foolproof, even on Hard! Video posted tomorrow around noon EST.
Yeah, I didn't do very well on Terminus, and might re-do it. From level 6 on, it becomes much more stealthy and I usually have much better paths. Missions 3-5 are just enough to get you through.

I have too many secrets. For all these years I've been a speaker for the dead, uncovering secrets and helping people to live in the light of truth. Now I no longer tell anyone half of what I know, because if I told the whole truth there would be fear, hatred, brutality, murder, war.
I'll put it bluntly. Human beings are free except when humanity needs them. Maybe humanity needs you. To do something. Maybe humanity needs me - to find out what you're good for. We might both do despicable things, but if humankind survives, then we were good tools.
Ender stepped under the water and rinsed himself, took the sweat of combat and let it run down the drain. All gone, except they recycled it and we'll be drinking Bonzo's blood water in the morning. All the life gone out of it, but his blood just the same, his blood and my sweat, washed down in their stupidity or cruelty or whatever it was that made them let it happen.
At first he thought he felt bad because he was afraid of leading an army, but it wasn't true. He knew he'd make a good commander. He felt himself wanting to cry. He hadn't cried since the first few days of homesickness after he got here. He tried to put a name on the feeling that put a lump in his throat and made him sob silently, however much he tried to hold it down. He bit down on his hand to stop the feeling, to replace it with pain. It didn't help.
Isn't it possible, he wondered, for one person to love another without trying to own each other? Or is that buried so deep in our genes that we can never get it out? Territoriality. My wife. My friend. My lover. My outrageous and annoying computer personality who's about to be shut off at the behest of a half-crazy girl with OCD on a planet that I never heard of and how will I live without [her] when she's gone?
. . . All these readers have placed themselves inside this story, not as spectators, but as participants, and so have looked at the world, not with my eyes only, but also with their own.
It was just him and me. He fought with honor. If it weren't for his honor, he and the others would have beaten me together. They might have killed me, then. His sense of honor saved my life. I didn't fight with honor . . . I fought to win.

Needs a serious update. I thought it would Parallelize my css and js scripts, but it appends &t=random value to my images. Its disgusting.
Working great. Will not work if your site is in a subfolder.
Seemed to have been a great tool to help parallelize downloads across hostnames. Would have been awesome with some assistance to do so with themes, plugins and the such. I tested the semi-automatic implementation for post images and it worked fine before I broke it and never managed to put it together again. The self-hosted W3Cache CPN is even harder to configure but works fine so I switched to that.

I Am Having problems with my Comment section wherein the Iframe is not expanding correctly. The fields EMAIL, WEBSITE, NAME are not displayed.
I think the problem is caused by the Iframe not expanding...
the iFrame is supposed to expand after clicking the comment box. however it is "though" expanding but not enough to display everything.
It use to work but after few updates from jetpack, i realized, now its not.
Is there a way we can disable the iframe expanding and just leave it expanded everytime a postpage is loaded.
Or any fix for this issue?
I Love Jetpack but I needed to deactivate it because its giving my readers some troublesome to put up some comments...

Storage.conduit.com redirect. How to Remove? (Uninstall Guide)
What is Storage.conduit.com?
Storage.conduit.com is suspicious search engine that have been noticed for questionable distribution techniques and annoying activities that it tends to initiate after hijacking each of web browsers. In most of the cases, people who discover this search site on their computers, think that it has infiltrated them behind their back. Unfortunately, but the reality is different because in most of the cases people allow its infiltration. If you want to avoid browser hijackers like this one, you have to start monitoring installation of every free program that you decide to download because there are lots of freewares that have been involved to Storage.conduit.com distribution. If it enters the system, it Storage.conduit.com hijacks each of web browsers and starts its affiliate marketing campaigns. In fact, this search engine is closely related to Conduit, Search.conduit.com, Trovi and Trovigo search engines that were firstly noticed some years ago. Nevertheless, it seems that people are still bothered by them.
Why are they promoted? The main reason why spammers do that is the money that is collected by promoting affiliate websites. Beware that not each of such sites is harmless. You may be tricked into visiting suspicious, questionable and even unsafe websites, so there is no need to ignoreStorage.conduit.com redirects. Besides, just like any other search website, this site may be used to track users' browsing habits. In most of the cases, they collect people's search terms, mostly visited websites, data that they enter when visiting them and similar data. However, sometimes email addresses, PCs' IP addresses and location is also known for the developers of such programs. This may lead you to an increased amount of spam and similar problems. If you have already noticed that you are suffering from continuous Conduit redirects, pop-up ads, slow downs and similar issues, you should waste no time and scan your machine with updated anti-spyware. We highly recommend using such programs as Reimage or Malwarebytes Anti Malware. If you are using Mac OS X, then you should download Webroot SecureAnywhere AntiVirus.
How can Storage.conduit.com hijack my computer?
Technically, Storage.conduit.com is not a 'virus' but there are lots of unwanted activities that it may cause on your computer. Beware that you can download such program unconsciously because they have been actively promoted in a bundle with shareware and freeware. In order to prevent infiltration of this hijacker, you should start paying more attention to the installation process of the freeware. For that you should use only Custom or Advanced installation option. Besides, make sure you uncheck all suspicious check marks that are typically set to allow changes of the start page or the default search engine. Once inside, this hijacker may modify the system and may take over all web browsers so that it could appear as soon as you start browsing on the web. If you don't have any desire to useStorage.conduit.com instead of Google or Yahoo, you should remove this browser hijacker from the system.
HOW TO REMOVE Storage.conduit.com virus?

I have to upgrade an old Delphi3 project to Delphi2010.
It uses a unit named DockForm, but I cannot find it anywhere in Delphi2010.
It is present in the old Delphi3 install CD as uDockForm, but it should be also found in D2010, because own D2010 source files use it (for example, \Embarcadero\RAD Studio\7.0\source\ToolsAPI\ToolsApi.pas).
Where is DockForm.pas or equivalent for D2010?

One of America's favorite funny ladies is gearing up to once again host 'Saturday Night Live' and on a very important weekend. According to Variety, Melissa McCarthy will return to helm NBC's late-night sketch comedy series the day before the Super Bowl, which will take place in New Jersey this year — less than 10 miles away from 'SNL's midtown Manhattan studio.
This stint — airing live on Saturday, Feb. 1 — marks McCarthy's third time taking up the hosting reigns, offering further proof of the actress's comedic talents. (Though I guess in this instance, we should call it a comedic touchdown?) The former 'Gilmore Girls' star (Sookie!) previously hosted 'Saturday Night Live' back in 2011 amid massive success and returned once more in 2013.
But aside from her many guest appearances, McCarthy is keeping herself pretty busy these days starring on the CBS sitcom hit 'Mike & Molly.' She can also be seen next on the big screen in a pair of upcoming comedies: opposite Bill Murray in 'St. Vincent de Van Nuys' (opening April 11) and with Susan Sarandon in 'Tammy' (opening July 2), which McCarthy co-wrote with her husband/director Ben Falcone.
No musical guest for McCarthy's 'SNL' return has yet been announced, however, we do know that Drake is set to take on double duty during his Jan. 18 spot, while Jonah Hill will host for his third time, alongside musical guest Bastille, on Jan. 25.

RNA binding proteins (RBPs) play an important role in mRNA metabolism including synthesis, maturation, transport, localization, and stability. In developing rice seeds, RNAs that code for the major storage proteins are transported to specific domains of the cortical endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by a regulated mechanism requiring RNA cis-localization elements, or zipcodes. Putative trans-acting RBPs that recognize prolamine RNA zipcodes required for restricted localization to protein body-ER have previously been identified. Here, we describe the identification of RBP-P using a Northwestern blot approach as an RBP that recognizes and binds to glutelin zipcode RNA, which is required for proper RNA localization to cisternal-ER. RBP-P protein expression coincides with that of glutelin during seed maturation and is localized to both the nucleus and cytosol. RNA-immunoprecipitation and subsequent RT-PCR analysis further demonstrated that RBP-P interacts with glutelin RNAs. In vitro RNA–protein UV-crosslinking assays showed that recombinant RBP-P binds strongly to glutelin mRNA, and in particular, 3′ UTR and zipcode RNA. RBP-P also exhibited strong binding activity to a glutelin intron sequence, suggesting that RBP-P might participate in mRNA splicing. Overall, these results support a multifunctional role for RBP-P in glutelin mRNA metabolism, perhaps in nuclear pre-mRNA splicing and cytosolic localization to the cisternal-ER.

• One hundred cases of heatstroke were selected for analysis from more than 1,000 hospital admissions during three exceptionally hot summers in a large city. These patients had the hot, dry skin that distinguishes heatstroke from other syndromes caused by high environmental temperatures. They also had symptoms referable to the central nervous system and temperatures usually exceeding 41.1 C (106 F). The greatest risk of life was in those patients with the severest central nervous system abnormalities; there were 12 deaths among the 53 patients who were comatos when admitted. Temperatures over 41.1 C, uremia, hypotension, and hyperpotassemia were also poor prognostic signs; all of the four patients with hyperpotassemia died. Treatment began with prompt total immersion and vigorous massage in an ice bath; this was followed by attention to cardiovascular status, electrolyte-fluid balance, oxygen requirements, and concurrent disease. Some of the data from laboratory studies on blood and cerebrospinal fluid supplied valuable therapeutic guidance, and a comparison with past mortality figures indicated that both prophylaxis and treatment have become more effective.

as I've said in previous posts & i hate to sound redundant but i just include it so people who dont know, will know, so excuse me if you heard the story already.
I was with my bf for 6 years, on may 23,2012. On may 27,2012 he broke up w/me saying 'the love was no longer there'. May 30, I found out I was pregnant.
I told him right away, and he is supportive by coming to every doctor appointment I have had so far. And we have picked out names together. However, thats as far as it goes. He has yet to lay a finger on my stomach, or anything. It sort of breaks my heart that he 'doesnt feel comfortable' doing so (because my stomach isn't 'big' yet...). Everyone that knows I'm pregnant, even strangers, have touched my belly and many have 'talked' to my baby, EXCEPT for him. I have even talked/apologized to my baby for being in this situation even though it's something that is out of my control.
Even his friends have asked how I am feeling, or how it feels to be pregnant, if i'm excited, etc. but him -he asks me nothing.
I never imagined my first pregnancy to be this way. I always imagined my first pregnancy to just be nothing but joyous and filled with love. But I can't help but to sometimes regret that I'm bringing a baby into this world with a father who 'doesnt love' their mother. I can't help but to imagine how cold my delivery will be when all I see are fathers who tell the mother how much they love them, and I'm not sure if I'll get those emotions from him. I do not regret going through with this pregnancy because I love my baby so much and I believe I became pregnant for a reason, but I just wanted to have a baby with someone who loved me as much as I loved them so we could be a happy family, you know? I also can't help but to think that my baby wasn't even conceived out of love. It just really breaks my heart and I really wanted to get this off my chest. I am also sort of considering seeking a therapist/counselor to help me with these feelings, but i just dont know...

"no one comes to me unless sent by the Father".
He asked me if it was all up to our free will and all have the potential to become Christians, why do some accept and some don't.
2. He also brought up prayers for the dead and why we pray for sinners even though they will be damned for not having faith. I have much trouble explaining prayers for dead sinners, this has always been a problem for me when I'm tested and I'm always short of an answer.

Tim McGraw Tries to Scare Ellen DeGeneres
"I have to tell you, that actually really did scare me," Ellen tells Tim.
Talk-show host/comedian Ellen DeGeneres really likes to scare her guests. Like, jump out of nowhere and scream kinda thing.
So Tim McGraw—at the show to promote his upcoming tour with Kenny Chesney—decided to turn the tables.
Tim waited in a room to jump out at Ellen as she was meandering down the hall. And he does just that, with some sort of banshee scream.
But Ellen hardly reacts at all.
"Damn!" Tim says, hugging Ellen's neck. "She knew it was coming!"
But, Ellen tells Tim, "I have to tell you, that actually really did scare me."
Hooray! Now the score: Other celebrities, 1; Ellen, 5,432.

I am in Jakarta for work, but since we had some free time we decided to go to Yogyakarta for the weekend.
Marcel (our guide) took us first to Borobudur.
Borobudur is a large Buddhist temple built around 750 to 850 AD.
The temple has 4 levels.
The temple was discovered in the 1800s, but was mostly covered with soil. It has been under resortation since.
Along the bottom of the temple are carved tiles that tell about good and evil. At some point these were built over. Only this corner showes some of these tiles.
Carved tiles.
Close up on the "good" tiles.
There are over 400 Buddhas around the temple with more in the stupas on top.
Not all the Buddhas are complete.
The second level has more narrative panals that describe the Buddhist religion.
The are 4 panels (2 on left and 2 on right) along the walkway. One would have to walk around 4 times to see the whole story.
The are over 3000 panals along the walls.
The panels are around 5km in length.
Working up to the next level.
More panels telling a story.
Not all the orginal pieces were found. The replacment blocks are not carved.
The bottom levels formed a square, but the top levels were a circle.
There are over 70 stupas on top, each of which contains a Buddha.
This is the only open stupa. It is only open becuase the orginal blocks were not found.
Belief has it, that if you touch the Buddha's had in this stupa your wish will come true.
Looking down from the top.
Looking along the levels.
Lion Guardian
Last view of Borobudur.
These guys were trying to see us trinkets.
The "handkerchief" tree. The tree is called this because the new leaves look like handkerchiefs.
Inside the temple are three statues of the Buddhist divinities
There is a large Banyan tree next to the temple.
After Borobudur we went into Yogyakarta and visited the Kraton (or Royal Palace)
Shadow Puppets are used in daily shows.
This is the banquet facility. The tenth Sultan still lives here.
Wedding cart. Overall, the sultan palace was not overly impressive.
Next we went to the bird market.
You could buy just about any type of animal were from birds, to lizards, to cats or squirrels.
Overall this market was pretty depressing. Poor animals.
Next we walked over to the water palace. Here is a view of some of the local housing.
Entrance to the water palace.
The water palace was used by the first two sultans for bathing.
After getting lunch we went to Prambanan
Prambanan is a Hindu temple compound built around 800 BC.
There were over 230 temples here, most of which have not been rebuilt.
The temples here are smaller in area but taller than the ones at Borobudur.
This one is the tallest. It was closed because of damage from an earth quake in 2006.
Lots of carving where also.
Still a lot of restoration to be done.
After this we had dinner and saw a traditional dance.
View of the volcano, Mount Merapi, next to Jogya from my hotel room.

"There are no more international adoptions."
For news about adoption and adoption related events.
* required
If you are unready to make the huge commitment involved in adoption (or if you are waiting to adopt) fostering and getting involved with Big Brother/Big Sister/Special Friends are two excellent ways to help out those in need while also gaining experience working with children.
Some Children's Aid Societies even have a foster-to-adopt program which you may be interested in inquiring about.
Legal guardianship is a special tool that exists to provide security and family to children who are unable to live with their birth parents but for whom the adoption process may be unnecessary.
Finally, adult adoption is a way for those over the age of 18 to still find a forever family.
When a child comes into the care of a Children's Aid Society in Ontario they are first placed in a foster home while efforts are made to work with their birth family to facilitate the return of the child, if possible, to the family home.
Foster parents provide day-to-day care for children, including supervision, guidance, and affection. They must be able to provide a stable home environment and consistency of care. Foster parents will receive training from the Children's Aid Society or private agency they are working with. They will become an integral part of the professional team who is working with the child and family.
When a child is not able to return to birth family, the foster parents will be involved in the adoption planning for the child and may be given the opportunity to put forth an adoption plan themselves, if appropriate. Some CAS's have a foster-to-adopt program that is specifically designed to limit the number of moves a child has by preparing families for both fostering and adoption.
Call your local Children's Aid Society to find out about the process, evaluation and training required to become a foster parent.
In many instances, children are able to stay in the care of their birth families through challenging times, provided they can receive some additional support. This niche is filled by the Big Brother, Big Sister, and Special Friends programs.
Volunteering in this capacity is a great way to help out a child who is in need and to keep children actively involved in your life when the fulltime commitment of adopting a child is not an option.
Children's Aid Societies often have programs that match volunteers with specific children and families. As well, many communities have a chapter of Big Brothers/ Big Sisters of Canada that provide training and matching of adults with children.
Sometimes a child cannot live with the birth parents but could have their need for family met by an extended family member, a close family friend or a member of the community who has developed a relationship with them or the birth parents. In these situations the family who is able to provide care may become the legal guardian for the child. Usually, the birth family consents to the guardianship plan and the order is granted in the family court system.
Legal guardianship resembles adoption in many ways, but guardianship relationships are not afforded all the legal protections of adoption. Guardianship may be preferable to adoption in situations where the child may in the future be able to return to the care of their birth parents. Guardianship is sometimes also called "kinship placement."
Adoption is not limited to children. In Ontario, the court can grant an adoption order when a person is over the age of 18. In these situations, the person seeking adoption and the prospective adoptive family would seek counsel and apply to the Ontario family court for an adoption order. The relevant legislation can be found in Section 146, Part VII of the Child and Family Services Act.
The Adoption Council of Ontario is a not-for-profit providing outreach, support and education to all adoptees, adoptive parents, potential adoptive parents, birth families, and adoption professionals in Ontario. We deal with public adoption, private adoption, international adoption and relative adoption. Since 1987, we have been working towards a provincial community where all children have families forever.
We gratefully acknowledge the support of the Ontario Trillium Foundation. The Ontario Trillium Foundation is an agency of the government of Ontario.

An Arab League plan to create a $1bn fund to preserve the Arab character of East Jerusalem has been called a "badge of shame" by an Israeli government spokesperson.
At a meeting of the Arab League in Doha on Tuesday the emir of Qatar, Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al-Thani, called for the establishment of the fund in his opening speech. He said that Qatar would donate $250m.
A non-profit organisation, modelled on Holocaust research groups, has launched 11 new websites to detail the exodus of Jews from 11 countries in the Middle East and North Africa.
The Hebrew University has high hopes of dismantling the "obstacle course" facing Arab students in higher education.
In a forum at Birkbeck University hosted by British Friends of the Hebrew University last Sunday, a panel of three Hebrew University guests discussed the current situation for Arab students on campus.
London-based pan-Arab daily Asharq Al-Awsat has come up with a surprising take on the Holy Land.
Dr Amal Al-Hazzani, an assistant professor at King Saud University in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, described the recent Israeli elections "as something of an exception in the Middle East" in an article titled "The Israel We Do Not Know".
More than 40 British Jews have taken part in a mission run by the UK Task Force, dedicated to exploring issues relating to Arab citizens of Israel living in mixed cities.
Last week delegates toured Jaffa, Lod and Haifa, visiting projects and meeting leaders of the Arab community, in both the public sector and civil society.
It has long been held that during the coming decades, competition for ever-diminishing water supplies would be the main trigger for regional wars in the Middle East. However, a proposed 30 mile-long bridge linking Saudi Arabia and Egypt, is a likely cause for more imminent military confrontation.
It is not often that the head of a Western government and a leading al-Qaeda operative see eye-to-eye on developments in the Middle East. But that is what happened after last week's unprecedented take-over of In Amenas, a gas facility in Algeria.
A man was arrested in Mecca after police discovered documents that unveiled his determination to find a Jewish bride.
Saudi Arabian police have suggested that the 49-year-old national, who was detained last Thursday, could have a "mental disorder".
Israel is preparing a NIS 300 million investment into higher education for its minorities.
Under the programme, institutions will have to offer remedial Hebrew courses, translate their websites into Arabic and make special counselling available to Arab students, or risk losing funds.
Amid the plethora of news reports and analyses on the Muslim world, the Middle East Media Research Institute (Memri) stands out as a key resource for grasping what the Arab man-in-the-street is absorbing from newspapers, radio, TV, mosque sermons and books.

"The Biosphere 2 --- A human controlled eco system" Oracle by gubbi1
Oracle Travel Guide: 22 reviews and 61 photos
Since I was a child I was interested in everything concerning science and nature, so I did not overlook that there was some experiment going on in the States where a group of people were locked in a huge glasshouse with an own ecosystem. The experiment was going on for two years and they aimed to see the different effects of life on this ecosystem to be able to make some prediction for our effect on the global ecosystem.
Coming to Tucson I picked up some flyer telling what to do in the area and I realized that Biosphere 2 was located very close to the town. It was immediately clear that this place had to be seen.
Nowadays this facility is still used for research, but it is not sealed totally as it was during these two years in the past. It is possible for Visitors to get inside on a guided tour. I can recommend this tour as you will see how much technic is behind this huge place and also it makes you think about the world outside.
During my tour they were doing some experiment to research on a certain illness of trees, related to some environmental issues. With the Biosphere 2 facility they could simulate the environment by changing different parameters like gas concentration of the air. It is really interesting.
The tour through Biosphere 2 includes a wak through the glass houses with their different climate zones, a view on the technical aspects which are neccessary to keep the place alive and then an unguided time around the facility where you can have a look at an exhibition and look through the glass walls.
For more details look at the webpage of Biosphere 2.
- Pros:Very interesting place!
- In a nutshell:A must-have-seen!
Reviews (2)
Like everywhere also here in the outside of Biosphere2 there are rattle snakes. We were warned by the guide and I just... more travel advice
When being around Tucson you should definitely come here to the Biosphere 2. It is a very interesting facility filled... more travel advice

After being cancelled by NBC, 'Community' has found a new home on Yahoo! Screen.
Dan Harmon assured fans the show would remain the same, saying "My philosophy is: attempt to make the same show, and let the lack of boundaries make themselves felt."
Gillian Jacobs expressed her gratitude, adding "[T]here are few times in your life when you get to work on something that is good, funny, and as groundbreaking and heartwarming as this."
Joel McHale joked that "Benedict Cumberbatch" would be replacing Pierce in Season 6.
What about Troy? Dan Harmon told Michael Ausiello, "The first thing I want to do is get Donald Glover back; I will do anything to make that happen."

Golden Gazpacho
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 0 mins
A crunchy chilled dish of yellow pear tomatoes, sweet yellow peppers, garlic, and bits of red bell pepper, combined with traditional ingredients like cucumber, onion, and cilantro. Gazpacho is usually a chilled dish made of pureed or processed fruits and vegetables. We prefer to make ours thick and chunky, with plenty of garlic. This brightly colored and flavorful gazpacho is a refreshing side dish with red meat and potatoes. From "Fresh from Dover Canyon"
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 cups yellow pear tomatoes, sliced in half
- 2 yellow bell peppers, seeds removed and diced
- 1 red bell pepper, seeds removed and diced
- 1 cucumber, peeled,seeds removed and diced
- 1 bunch green onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 bunch cilantro, destemmed and finely chopped
- 1 jalapeno, seeds removed and diced
- 2⁄3 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives or 3 tablespoons fresh oregano or 3 tablespoons fresh thyme
- salt, to taste
- fresh coarse ground black pepper, to taste
- Combine the chopped tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, onions, garlic, cilantro and jalapeno in a large bowl.
- In a small bowl, make a vinaigrette by combining the olive oil, white wine vinegar, and herbs.
- Taste the vinaigrette and add salt and pepper to taste.
- Toss the gazpacho with the vinaigrette and let it sit for several hours if possible so the garlic can permeate the olive oil and chopped vegetables.
- Serve chilled.
- Wine suggestion: A crisp, chilled sauvignon blanc or pinot gris.

Google announced Thursday that it is acquiring Upstartle, maker of Web-based word processor Writely.
The move immediately fueled speculation that the search engine company may be working on its own version of an online office suite, which could compete with Microsoft's cash cow.
Rumors about the supposed suite have been percolating for some time, fueled in part by Google's partnership with Sun Microsystems and reports of a Google .
Google hasn't yet stated how it would incorporate the word processor, which is still in beta, into its other offerings. But bloggers were happy to speculate on their own.
Blog community response:
"Now buying Writely is in line with Google thinking of using browser for everything. I mean an online word processor, and online excel spread sheet make a lot more sense than making people switch to OpenOffice."
--Om Malik
"So this is how I see it working. Google Desktop is used to synchronise your local drive with your GDrive (with Lighthouse probably being the tool that you use to decide who can access and share what data). If your working on your regular computer, click a document and it opens up into OpenOffice Writer. If your on a public workstation log into GDrive, click on the same document and it opens up in Writely."
"Still, Microsoft will likely view this as a much more direct attack -- especially coming so soon after Microsoft's new focus on its 'Live' strategy. Bet you can't wait to see the response."

Alta is definitely all about the skiing. On powder days, it can't be beat. Much of the mountain is ungroomed, so be prepared for powder and/or bumps depending on snow conditions. One of the great things about Alta is that it offers a variety of terrain, from wide bowls to tree skiing and, from the Supreme lift, rocks and chutes. If you aren't used to skiing powder and ungroomed terrain, I would recommend the afternoon clinics -- you can even take a black diamond-level powder clinic if you are at the expert level and want to improve your abilities in the deep stuff.
On powder days, various sections open up after avalanche blasting, which can mean that the lifts open later than usual, but there are ample opportunities for maing fresh tracks as long as you pay attention and get to the newly opened areas quickly. Some of the best runs are those below the High Traverse (turn sharp right at top of Collins Lift), the backside into East Greely (straight and to the left of Collins), and, when it's open, the Castles (but they require hiking).
It is true that Apres Ski is a little limited, but the food at the lodges such as Goldminer's and the Peruvian is good. The Goldminer's bar serves only wine and beer, but the bars at Peruvian and Rustler lodges have hard liquor as well. The atmosphere is more "rustic" and ski-centered than some other resorts (such as Park City), but the superior skiing, lack of crowds, and no snowboards policy are well worth it!

What are complications of intertrigo?
Intertrigo may be complicated by a variety of infectious microorganisms that must be eliminated before the condition is likely to improve. Since fungal infections are very common in the intertriginous zones, it is important to perform appropriate tests (such as microscopically analyzing small scrapings of affected skin) to exclude this problem. Most dermatologists and some primary care physicians are able to perform potassium hydroxide mounts of scale obtained from the irritated skin right in the office and visualize the fungus under the microscope. There are a variety of other skin diseases that may present a picture similar to intertrigo but are treated quite differently. If the condition does not respond to the simple treatment methods listed above, further diagnostic procedures may have to be done to elucidate the true diagnosis.
What is the prognosis of intertrigo?
If the patient is willing to change certain habits that may predispose to intertrigo the prognosis is quite good. It almost always resolves rapidly.
Can intertrigo be prevented?
Simple intertrigo can be prevented by applying a drying powder onto any intertriginous skin predisposed to irritation prior to any physical activity. Carefully drying the affected area after bathing or showering is also helpful. In obese individuals with a large abdominal skin folds (panniculus), weight reduction can diminish the folds so that intertrigo is prevented.

DiDio & Lee Says DC Will Take the Time to Do "Watchmen"/Rebirth Story 'Right'
Comic Books
This is the one-hundredth and second in a series of examinations of comic book urban legends and whether they are true or false. Click here for an archive of the previous one-hundred and one. Click here for a similar archive, only arranged by subject.
Let's begin!
COMIC URBAN LEGEND: Marvel came out with a Broadway musical starring Captain America.
STATUS: False
A good deal of people have asked me about the Captain America musical. Too many for me to remember all their names, but the most recent were Mike Johnson, David Stevens and Jeff Watson.
In any event, with the recent announcement of production beginning on a Spider-Man musical (with words and music from Bono and the Edge, of all people!), I thought now would be a great time to address this one.
Doing a musical based on a comic book character is not exactly the most unique of ideas.
In 1966, there was a musical released based on Superman titled "It's a bird It's a Plane It's Superman".
Needless to say, the production was not a great success (although almost a decade later, it appeared on television!!).
In the mid-80s, most Marvel Comics included the following ad (scan courtesy of Retrojunk):
The New York Times reported at the time that the music and words were being done by Mel Mandel and Norman Sachs.
Did the production ever open, though?
For the lowdown, I went to the guru of all things Marvel, Tom Brevoort, who explained to me that the plot of the musical was to involve a little girl and a 60-year-old Captain America. The contest was presumably a key part of the marketing of the play (similar to the recent NBC program that had the contest for who would star in the revival of Grease), and Brevoort explained that the production fell apart quickly.
So, sadly, we never got to see a 60-year-old Captain America dance with a little girl on stage.
Thanks to Tom Brevoort, for the information.
I shudder to imagine the Red Skull's big song and dance number.
red skull woulda been a lot like yul brenner in 'the king and i' i imagine, most entertaining.
that justice league/ jsa thing? stuff like that is why dc is lame.
Isn't the "Legends" commercial with the actual Justice Society an urban legend as well? I've seen the clips and stills online, but it seems kind of weird that they animated footage with the JSA when it seems like the decision to use the substitute JGA pretty early on, before any animation was done.
I liked the Justice Guild of America. It's too bad they haven't brought them into the regular DC continuity. They'd be redunant, true, but there's a charm to the characters. And who else got a kick out of the Flash actually getting into the old-timey hero act in the episode?
Have a good day.
John Cage
"If you're a girl between 10 and 14… you might just be the person Cap's looking for! He needs a bundle of talent to play his very special friend… Do it today. You wouldn't want to let Cap down would you?"
Um… the "60-year-old Cap" sounds like a very dirty old man.
"This mean dude's name is Cougar. He's half man and half cat and according to Rob's notes, he's all trouble! Note that his pants have the same outside stripe design as the design on the New Mutants' costumes shown last issue."
Note that he's also wearing his belt just below his armpits like your grandpa.
If I recall, what the Flash-substitute actually said was, "You're a credit to your people," which could be taken to mean the Justice League, or people from Earth-1, maybe, but it's obvious how John interpreted it, given the look on his face. My jaw dropped when I heard that line, and I wondered how they'd gotten it through. That was the only bit that struck me as particularly disrespectful to the JSA, though. The Black Canary-like character is a bit overdone with the domestic chores, but that's not as offensive, somehow — she obviously doesn't seem to mind, she kicks butt later on, and Hawkgirl's having none of it, so I'm willing to let them off.
Re: UL #1 the week. The 70s television broadcast of "It's A Bird, It's A Plane" was not the original Broadway cast. David Wilson played the Superman/Clark role that Bob Holiday had created for the stage and Ken Mars (the original Franz Liebkind) played Jack Cassidy's role.
What issue of West Coast Avengers is that?
I really need to know.
ThanX, in advance.
Bruce Timm and Co. mentioned the bit about the JSA/Justice Guild brouhaha on the commentary track for the Justice League DVD. Personally, I'm kind of glad they didn't use the real JSA considering how that episode ended. Comic book fans, after all, are used to the idea of parallel Earths with the same characters existing on different ones but the general public might have been a bit confused when Justice League Unlimited rolled around and you would have had another Black Canary and another Wildcat.
This way, they did still get to tell the story they wanted to and they avoided the confusion of having to explain the duplicated characters.
To me, it's like the Charlton characters and Watchmen — initially, the set-back seems a drag, but then it forces a stronger story out of the creative team. I love the Justice Guild episode and sniffle at the end every time.
Re: UL #1 the week. The 70s television broadcast of "It's A Bird, It's A Plane†was not the original Broadway cast. David Wilson played the Superman/Clark role that Bob Holiday had created for the stage and Ken Mars (the original Franz Liebkind) played Jack Cassidy's role.
And Lesley Ann Warren played Lois (played by Patricia Mayrand on stage) and Loretta Swit played Sydney (played by Linda Lavin on broadway)
And a good chunk of it was rewritten for the TV adaptation.
Funny story (for me) about that: I remember seeing it listed in TV guide (I was about 6) and begged my Aunt (who I was staying with) to wake me up at 11:30pm and watch it and she said she would…only she claimed the next morning I wouldn't wake up. Still don't believe her. My cousin distracted me by saying he'd watched it…only his plot was the synposes of several 1960s Filmation cartoons strung together.
Years later I got to see the TV version (I'm a fan of the '66 musical)– I'm glad my Aunt never woke me up…
That Wozniak spread is just dreadful. I really hope he had a tight deadline going on that issue.
Given how "Legends" ended, I would have to call Levitz a putz for thinking the ep was disrespectful to the JSA.
The Atom/Superman analogue in the Justice Guild reminded me a lot of Tom Strong, which I thought was cool.
Darn, someone beat me to the comment about the TV version of It's a Bird, It's a Plane, It's Superman not being the original cast.
Man, those are some tiny-ass pointy little Liefeld feet on that first Cougar image.
Um… the "60-year-old Cap†sounds like a very dirty old man.
No kidding. I'm imagining the production actually fell apart right after somebody involved got a good look at that whole ad. Like a bucket of cold water being dumped over their head.
Still, I'm kinda disappointed we never got to see the big Light-Up-Shield-Throwing sfx setpiece…
P-Tor —
It is Avengers West Coast #64.
Wha? Where can I see this alleged commercial with the JGA incarnated as the actual JSA?
The Timmverse or DCAU or whatever you want to call it has its own canon, so I don't think anyone can get all bent out of shape about the JGA replacing the JSA. I mean, the Justice Lords are essentially The Crime Syndicate. And eventually the show went "Unlimited" (which I suppose is the late 21st century's "Extreme!"), and numerous JSA characters made their way onto the show. True, none of them were vital to any one plot point, but they still would have been somewhat tarnished, and ruined what would otherwise were good stories.
It's not entirely accurate to say none of them were vital to any one plot – Stargirl was a big part of the episode in Skartaris, and she and STRIPE were (obviously) featured in the 7SoV ep. Plus, Wildcat starred alongside Black Canary in the "fight club" one, along with a JSA villain.
I'm with Derek and whoever else: unless there's some proof, I think the idea that an animated JSA appeared on commercials is a legend. Even if they went back to re-record some dialog when the names were changed, that would still have to be way before most of the animation. Got any evidence for us?
And one correction to the wording of that legend: Justice League Unlimited didn't have to create the JGA, Justice League. That was season one, before JLU got its "U."
I remember hearing another rumor at the time, that the JSA was under development for another unspecified movie or TV project, and DC withheld them from the JL guys for that reason.
Good points regarding the Unlimited stuff and the Superman cast, folks!!
Corrected now!
When I first discovered the info of the Superman play, I thought that Jack Cassidy while may have been good in the role. Would have been better cast later as Ollie Queen/Green Arrow. Anyone who saw him in various role with the facial hair he wore in the 70's hopefully would agree with me.
Also why does the first line in the #102 Urban Legends columns say that this is the one-hundred and first in the series…?
To see if you were paying attention, of course, Bobb.
There's no other possible explanation!
@ yo go re:
Yes, numerous JSA characters were major players in episodes, I'm just saying that they were dramatically inconsequential. The Stargirl in Skartis existed simply as a teenage foil to Supergirl. Essentially another girl to be jealous of. That role could have been filled by almost any other female character (although Stargirl was the best choice, obviously.)
The Seven Soldiers episode was just dreck and existed because the producers wanted to do a Seven Soldiers episode and wanted to work with JK Simmons again (can't fault them on that point.) No dramatic weight behind that episode, and it honestly wasn't even good clean fun either with the loosely concealed, very basic political undertones of it. And no, I'm not saying cartoons/superheroes can't discuss real world issues. It's just that the "America's attempts to protect by destroying" metaphor doesn't work well in a 22 minute action cartoon. So were JSA characters vital? Sure, but it won't go down as the most important use of them ever.
The Fight Club episode was vital to include Wildcat, because it was about agism and the elder statesmen's role in the superhero community. So yes, that one did require a JSAer in an important role.
You can find the original JL commerical featuring the JSA just about anywhere (bit torrents, YouTube, etc.).
Are you kidding? I LOVED Patriot Act and I'm a Conservative. ^_~ If only for Shining Knight standing defiantly against Eiling that episode deserves an award.
[blockquote]You can find the original JL commerical featuring the JSA just about anywhere (bit torrents, YouTube, etc.).[/blockquote]
I looked on YouTube, and could not find it. Link?
Levitz had every right to make the call he did, but it was totally wrong-headed. The mongoloids that buy the JSA comic (yes, you) aren't going to be dissuaded from it by a corny portrayal of the 1940's team on a cartoon. They aren't dissuaded by the ceaseless melodrama and the lull-you-to-sleep artwork, so why would a GOOD story turn them off?
Loved this line from Timm:
"Teaming up our guys with the current JSA just didn't seem to make much sense, somehow—what we'd end up with would be just a mega-sized Justice League, with twice as many heroes to deal with."
A big dumb mess, in other words. The modern JSA is completely indistinct and lacking purpose, in other words.
'Training the next generation' is a stupid excuse for a super-team to exist. Geoff Johns' JSA is just bafflingly feckless soap opera schmaltz.
"Given how "Legends†ended, I would have to call Levitz a putz for thinking the ep was disrespectful to the JSA."
To be fair, the episode spends a lot more time pointing and laughing at the JGA, sometimes with some pretty pointed barbs, than it does acknowledging their nobility. They may redeem themselves in the end, but there are plenty of moments before then where they come off as clued out at best, and unintentionally racist and sexist, at worst. If they had used the "real" JSA, anybody seeing the new comic on a stand would have said, "Oh, yeah, those are the out-of-date has-been jackasses from Justice League."
If there is a fallacy in that last statement, it's the idea that anybody would think to go to a comic book shop after watching JL/JLU to look for anything, even the tie-in comic books.
Also, minor nitpick, but it's "Toon Zone." Two words.
"Then I will die defending the weak, as befits a knight…"
I love that episode.
Bruce Timm in Brian's text: "They're now the superheroes of 'Earth Two–and–a–half', if you will…kinda similar to what Alan Moore was doing in his Supreme run."
Wouldn't a more appropriate analogy be what Moore did with the Charlton heroes in WATCHMEN?
As for the TV version of the SUPERMAN musical and Graeme Burk's contention that a good chunk of it was rewritten: it aired in a 90–minute–with–commercials time–slot under ABC's then late–night umbrella, "Wide World of Entertainment," which meant the naked running time had to just be slightly over an hour. Surely the Broadway play was significantly longer than that, hence changes were required. By the way, I was surprised to see among the screen tests on the last VHS/first DVD release of SUPERMAN (1978) that Lesley Ann Warren had tried out to play Lois there, as I felt that the only reason she was at all effective in the musical was that it was played campy. As a straight Lois, she would have flopped, and what was shown of her test by Lynn Stalmaster supported that. (Didn't care much for Margot Kidder either, actually, and wish that Holly Palance, who played the role in Chris Reeve's tests, had been cast, but according to Stalmaster, she was not trying out herself, but only helping with Reeve's test.
When Cougar trips over his non-existent feet, he's gonna slash up his own arms on his belt.
If he wore it a little lower, like a normal person, he might do us all a favor and catch his wrists.
***Ted Watson said:

No, I think Timm was correct. Supreme was an affectionate tribute to Superman even if it did poke some fun at the conventions.
WATCHMEN, while a better story, rips the heads off the Charlton characters and superheroes in general, although I don't think Moore had anything in particular against the characters.
I see a similarity in the endings. Both "Legends" and WATCHMEN ends with the characters in a state where you couldn't use them again. But at the end of "Legends" you have a warm feeling toward the Justice Guild (Plus, on a technicality, you could argue that the Justice Guild members were never really like that as people: What we saw was how a young boy imagined characters he only knew from a comic book would act.)
**To Brian Mac:**
In fairness, there should be nothing to "let them off" about. The creators of that episode were only being true to the times. Who is considered more of a comic book genius than Will Eisner and have you *seen* Ebony from the Spirit series…?
That character in the crowd scene looks more like Timber Wolf than Cougar.
How could anybody who saw that JL episode assume that they were lampooning anything other than the Golden Age time period?
I suppose the fact that it ended up being a fictitious(as it were) team makes it a bit more obvious, but still….
"What IS clear is that Cougar, for whatever reason, never made his way into the New Mutants."
i may actually know why he did not use cougar in New Mutants. At the end of Team YoungBlood 1, Rob liefeld rambles about the origins of Youngblood, and how several characters were designed for youngblood and ended up members of Brigade or the MLF. Here is what he had to say about cougar:
"Cougar was set to appear in those pages [New Mutants] as well – in fact, a cover featuring him was done up by myself and inked by pal and Spawn superstar Todd Macfarlane – but i pulled the cover and the storyline at the last minute, feeling uneasy about loosing control of yet another creation. Needless to say, it's a move i've never regretted."
so, he thought cougar would be better in youngblood, i guess.
I know it's hard for people of our generation to understand, but yes, people in the 50s really DID think about subjects like race and gender roles the way it is portrayed in "Legends." And WITHOUT actually meaning anything bad about it, either- it was just the way they were raised. It was a very different world. I don't think a Black person from that time would be too amused to visit our time and find out how the Rap culture claims to represent them today, either.
Little things like that -more implied than outright said- are what separate the Animated DCU from other cartoons, making them a little deeper for adult fans without confusing the kids.
The only thing I didn't like about the episode was that the Justice Guild turned out to be part of the fantasy created by the mutant boy (was he supposed to be a stand-in for JSA villain Brainwave?) I know that was the whole point, and that made their sacrifice in the end a truly noble one. It didn't make much sense, though, unless we assume that they represented a part of the boy's mind that realized what he was doing was wrong.
Oh, and even though it is certainly better to know the truth about the World and be free of someone else's control… would YOU be happy to learn your world was an illusion and that you really live in a post-nuclear world? Just saying.
so, he thought cougar would be better in youngblood, i guess.
Thanks a lot!!
I mean, that's what I FIGURED, but it is great to have an actual quote to go with it! Thanks a bunch! I'll edit the piece accordingly..
"The only thing I didn't like about the episode was that the Justice Guild turned out to be part of the fantasy created by the mutant boy (was he supposed to be a stand-in for JSA villain Brainwave?)"
Mmmm, maybe a little, but the mutant kid is mainly a complicated allusion to other things:
1) The Twlight Zone episode, "It's a Good Life" where a young boy with immense mental powers is absolute tyrant of his home town, which he's torn away into another dimension.
2) Avengers #85, written by Roy Thomas, where the Avengers meet JLA analogues the Squadron Supreme in an homage to the JLA-JSA crossovers. The teams hook up to defeat a young boy with immense mental powers named Brainchild (who seems to be more than a little inspired by the kid in that Twilight Zone episode.)
3) Avengers #97, written by Roy Thomas, where teenager Rick Jones taps into his hitherto unsuspected mental powers to create living versions of Golden Age comic book heroes from the 1940s.
4) Roy Thomas himself, the continuity fantatic and Golden Age maniac who went on to write many, many stories about the JSA and All-Star Squadron characters during the 1980s.
And how do we know that one of the Justice League cartoon folks intended the Justice Guild episodes to be a tribute to Roy Thomas? Because the mutant kid is named … wait for it … Roy Thomspon.
Still waiting on that link, Mad Monkey – my YouTube search didn't turn up anything either.
Brian, you might want to make it clear in the UL heading that it was the Justice League cartoon that had to create the Justice Guild – save some confusion when it's listed on the "legends by company" page.
Adam: I don't disagree that in many cases, the JSA characters could have been swapped for pretty much anyone else. But at the end of the day (or the animation cycle, as it were), they weren't swapped for anyone else, and that counts for something. Supergirl could have been jealous of someone else, but she wasn't. I'm sure part of it was that all the similarly-aged heroines were tied up in Teen Titans, but we still had Star filling more of a role than background filler. I'm not saying that the JSA was used to its fullest potential (which is big, no matter hair Paul has up his butt), but that they weren't entirely ignored…
I actually own the original broadway cast soundtrack to "It's A Bird!" Great Krypton, it's awful! Besides a stupid, plodding story, it only has one good song: "You've Got Possibilities," sung by Linda Lavin. Did you know that was one of her first big breaks? It's true …
That Cougar design is a direct rip off of George Perez' briefly used Timber Wolf re-design from Legion, used about the time that Pat Broderick was drawing the book. It first appeared in a DC digest.
Ha! I have a copy of that West Coast Avengers!
Point taken. Thanks.
"Thanks a lot!!
I mean, that's what I FIGURED, but it is great to have an actual quote to go with it! Thanks a bunch! I'll edit the piece accordingly.."
No problem, Brian. By the way, it was Team Youngblood that that quote came from, not youngblood.
Jef Hamlin got to it before I did… Here's George Perez' new costume for Timber Wolf (from Best of DC Digest #24, May 1982, via DC Cosmic Teams). The belt is the same, down to the studs on it, and it goes with the top open to the navel.
Ack, it wouldn't let me include an image in the post. Here's Timber Wolf vs Cougar.
why is he named Cougar when he has a flipper for a left foot?
Has there ever been a more successful commerical artist that couldn't draw basic anatomy?
That's not really a racist comment. It's a racial comment, but not necessarily racist. Fine line sure… but it's not like he said "You're a credit to your race, I wish more of them could be like you instead of ".
It's absurd to suggest that Rob Liefeld would rip off George Perez.
or not
Funny stuff…
…and your welcome for the Cougar thing, guys:)
Liefeld's comments that he has never regretted his decision to hold onto Cougar is hilarious!
He acts like the character has made him millions of dollars or something.
What's so funny to me about the image guys is they were making millions at Marvel.
They were giving the authority to write the books like X-men, X-force and Spiderman. Marvel essentially let them write and draw whatever they wanted and paid them $80,000 + per MONTH!
They just didn't want to do the work. To me that sums up Image comics. They hid behind character ownership, but the reality was they had salaries, royalties and all the freedom in the world…. but Marvel had the nerve to ask that they turn in work on a regular basis!
Marvel kicked Louise Simonson off of New Mutants after five years and let Liefeld "write" it.
Marvel was soooo into Jim Lee they were starting to phase Claremont out of the X-men titles that he had written for 17 years.
MacFarlane didn't like taking scripts from Micheline so Marvel gave him his own book to write.
Those guys are lazy, pure and simple.
I'm sure rip off characters like Cougar are making liefeld tons of cash….LOL….what a joke.
Sorry about the rant, I just hate that guy Liefeld
"And how do we know that one of the Justice League cartoon folks intended the Justice Guild episodes to be a tribute to Roy Thomas? Because the mutant kid is named … wait for it … Roy Thomspon."
Wumpus, on the commentary track for "Legends," Bruce Timm said the kid was named for Roy Thomas and Don Thompson, who ran the Comics Buyer's Guide with his wife Maggie. (Don died but I think Maggie is still with CBG.)
Timm said one of the ideas of the episode was that if Roy Thomas had those kinds of mental powers and survived a nuclear war, that Golden Age/JSA world is the one he would create. I think Timm hit the nail right on the head but based only on reading articles he has written (I've never met the guy) I think Thomas is a little prickly and doesn't have the sense of humor about himself he thinks he does so I wonder what he made of the "tribute."
Sorry guys, the guy in the west coast avengers picture is Puma an old spider-man villain.
Sorry guys, the guy in the west coast avengers picture is Puma an old spider-man villain.
Puma is ALSO in the picture. He is standing in front of Hulk. Cougar is behind the Hulk, next to Cable.
On "Legends," I think Levitz' statement makes sense. Remember the JLU wasn't just to sell comics (which clearly it utterly fails to do), it's to advertise a toy line. I think it's very reasonable to protect the integrity of certain characters like the JSA and Hawkman, and not twisting them up overmuch.
Also, I disagree that the Streak was racist. The comment, "You're a credit to your people," is NOT a racist comment at all … rather it is an honest compliment from an open-minded man (did he ever imply he looked down on GL?) who lives in a racist society. My mouth fell open when I heard that line, because I thought it was an immensily gutsy thing for the writers to put in … that IS how people talked in the 50's.
So whatever happened to Rob Liefeld? Anyone know?
Thank you for the information on the AWC issue regarding Cougar. I was not aware of that.
BTW, it should be noted that Liefeld had already debuted Cougar as a member of Youngblood some years before, in an ad that showed up in some Megaton comics. If memory serves, it looked much more like the Cougar he would eventually use for his Image Youngblood.
ComixKid2099 quoted "Cougar was set to appear in those pages [New Mutants] as well – in fact, a cover featuring him was done up by myself and inked by pal and Spawn superstar Todd Macfarlane – but i pulled the cover and the storyline at the last minute, feeling uneasy about loosing control of yet another creation. Needless to say, it's a move i've never regretted.â€
That image for the cover (which was shown in a Marvel Age issue, I believe calling him none other than Cable) was identical to the leaping image shown in the pages of issue 1 of youngblood. It didn't even look redrawn. (probably re inked though)
Everyone remember the Cougar T-shirts and Lunchboxes? Everyone dressed up as Cougar for Halloween.
Yeah, that is pretty dopey. I don't even know what the theme of the character is just by the picture. It's not like it's the next Cable or anything. Cable is still around.
Did they really make 80,000 a month, the top Marvel artists?
McFarlane said he made 2 million all added up when he left Marvel.
Well…that Image Cougar boy is like a Pink-lover Wolverine…it's the same thing that happened to me the first time I saw the Wildcats cartoon…they were sooo X-menish!
"Also, I disagree that the Streak was racist. The comment, "You're a credit to your people,†is NOT a racist comment at all … rather it is an honest compliment from an open-minded man"
I'm sorry but that is an incredibly dense statement. The implication is CLEARLY that other black people are NOT a credit to their race in Streak's eyes.
So, this is a bit late, but I thought I'd throw out there that I actually have an old Marvel design page from Liefeld's time at Marvel that's a design credited to him, McFarlane, and Stan Lee (I sort of assume his name was on all designs and I doubt he had any active part in this) of Overkill, who of course later turned up as a Spawn villain.
@ DigitalGonzo:
I remember a video out at the time called "The Comic Book Greats" that had Stan Lee interviewing Liefeld and McFarlane and had them create characters 'on the spot' and do something in the 'Marvel style'.
To Rob's credit, he does hunker down and actually DRAW something (albeit a bit too Cable-ish) while Todd mainly talks and jokes a lot with Stan and doesn't accomplish a whole lot.
It was during the course of that video where Liefeld created Overkill, so the three-way joint credit seems reasonable given that all gentlemen were present when the character was born.
To this day I wonder if Rob and Todd knew at the time the video was made that they were going to be leaving Marvel soon.
That Sven soliders episode was great for showing the human characters willing to fight. It also grew the Vigilante and Shining Knight friendship by giving them some lime light. It was also a ton of fun. It had quite a few funny moments.
But what it did best, was make shining knight very cool. He had great scenes in it.
I can believe all this time and all these posts….and no one figures how obviously Cougar was going to end up being Sabertooth's kid. Though the Timber Wolf rip off is hilarious. I thought the belt looked familiar. Made me think of Fang of the Imperial Guard….who of course, was based on….
As for the very first post, the Red Skull's musical number would have obviously been Springtime for Hitler.
I had that Marvel Age with the Liefeld designs. He wrote, regarding Cable, something along the lines of "I think I'll give him a techno-sounding name, like Cable or Wire or something."
Even as a kid, I remember thinking that was a really stupid way to name a character.
"So, sadly, we never got to see a 60-year-old Captain America dance with a little girl on stage."
Sadly, or gratefully?
And I think Levitz was right to nix the JSA in the Legends episode. Otherwise, the JSA would be dead (in the animated universe, anyway) and Earth-2 would be a post-holocaust world.
Man, I really liked the alternate worlds stuff, and hated 1985's Crisis, not just for getting rid of it, but for doing so retroactively, as if the alternate worlds had never existed.
Oh, and Brian, thanks for keeping the comments open on these old columns–I'm still working through them.

Do not edit the theme itself. First create a child theme for your changes. Or install a custom CSS plugin.
Hello Vertikulator,
Not hidden at all :)
Your questions is answered here: http://www.wpstrapcode.com/faqs/my-child-theme-does-not-work with an example child theme - Enjoy.
Anything I can help with feel free to shout.
I know from experience that the CSS plugin is not 100%.
Zulfikar Nore:
Child I never did and I do not know if I can handle it.
Come see me easier to edit CSS and it is. It would be enough window in the template box "user css".
Child themes work exactly like the parent themes - the only difference is that the main "templates" reside in the parent theme. And in term of changing the css instead of editing the elements/selectors in the parent theme you copy them to the child theme's style.css and do the edits there.
Once you have copied the required css you can do all your edits in the edit screen under appearance - just be sure the selected theme is the child theme and not the parent theme.
Plus you do not need to create the child theme, the link I provided above has the download on it which you can take and do with as you please. I've already added some of the selectors all you have to do is find the ones you need and edit.
