"Ghostbusters": 11 Things the Sequel Needs to Do to Succeed
Every week, I will spotlight strange but ultimately endearing comic stories (basically, we're talking lots and lots of Silver Age comic books). Here is the archive of all the installments of this feature.
Today, with Avengers versus X-Men raging on, we take a look at the earliest confrontation between an Avenger and an X-Men, the time that Angel of the X-Men was driven insane from an atomic bomb and then beat up Iron Man.
It is late 1963, the Avengers and the X-Men are so new that the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants has not shown up yet and the Hulk has quit the Avengers so recently that it is not even addressed in Tales of Suspense #49, when Iron Man meets Angel of the X-Men.
And what a meeting!
First, I love the cute opening page of the story…
Wow, thanks editors of X-Men and Avengers!!
Okay, so here is how the story gets going…
You have to love them standing so close to an atomic explosion. Plus, Angel realizing that he is turning evil. Better yet, IRON MAN realizes that is turning evil and yet after one attempt to catch him (which fails), Iron Man just gives up and goes about his day to day life. "Eh, oh well, so he's evil now."
Remember, this is pre-Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, so Angel only PRESUMES that there are a bunch of evil mutants out there SOMEwhere…
When his fellow X-Men try to stop him, he handles them easily, even though some of his methods are a bit odd…
I don't think that would work the way he says it works. But hey, it worked for him, so who am I to judge?
Professor X calls the X-Men for help, but all of them are ignoring their radios. The amusing thing is that all of them have their radios on them in their secret identities, leading to weird things like, you know, Tony Stark getting a distress signal in front of other people…
Ah…the Silver Age. When "What? You didn't hear anything!" would actually work as an excuse. I guess Happy knew he was so drunk at the time that maybe he WAS hearing things.
Next, we see Iron Man's delayed sense of justice…
"Now that Professor X has reminded me, I guess I DID sort of cause this."
Meanwhile, check out Angel's brilliant plan for getting into contact with other evil mutants…
Maybe they're on a cruise?! For serious? Did the radiation affect his intelligence, too?
Iron Man is given ten minutes to reason with Angel or else the police will open fire on the winged mutant. Angel then handles Iron Man easily…
They then fight in a warehouse, where Angel locks Iron Man up. Iron Man escapes to find Angel still waiting for evil mutants…
Perhaps this is Stan Lee's version of "Waiting for Godot?"
Iron Man has a new plan. This time, LET Angel kick his ass….
You gotta love how blase Iron Man is about dying.
And then finally….
Good stuff.
By the way, the X-Men were watching the whole thing…
"Why didn't you try to rescue me?" "We were wondering what would happen."
Well done, Silver Age Marvel (the Ditko art was awesome)! If Avengers versus X-Men ends without at least one member of the X-Men (or the Avengers, even) turning evil because of radiation, then I will be sorely disappointed.
Love it!!! In the 60's radiation was the solution for all of Marvels problems!! Super powers,origins,personality altering!! Talk about a plot device
So let me get this straight, when you like a Lee/Ditko story, then Ditko wrote it, but when you don't like it, then Lee wrote it all by himself. Got it.
That story just screams "Steve Ditko plot" to me, the whole theme of "choosing to be evil/good," etc.
Radiation:What can't it do?
Since when did Ditko present choosing to be good or evil as a matter requiring any personal conflict??
Prefer Ditko inking himself, to be honest.
That's right up there with the Hulk changing direction in mid-leap due to the awesome power of his muscles.
And he left out my favorite bit, where Angel just flies around Jean's telekinetic attack. Because it's so easy to spot TK blasts.
When I first read this, I hadn't realize it was pre-Brotherhood, which makes Angel's little terror campaign really nutty (even given they'd already met Magneto, Vanisher and Blob). But obviously radiation was impairing his thinking process.
Generally, I think radiation in sixties comics (and a fair number of fifties movies) is one of those technologies indistinguishable from magic as Arthur C. Clarke put it.
I know this is much earlier in Tony Stark's career, but I still find it hilarious that he can't outfly a character whose power is being a human-sized pigeon.
So what was the deal with those "thanks to the editors of BLANK magazine" you'd see in the Marvel cross-overs back then? Why were they trying to pretend that these were different companies? I saw one in the issue where Thor fights Magneto where they say "Magneto appears courtesy of the editors of X-MEN Magazine….namely, ourselves!"
Did the editor thanking have to do with Marvel being run like so many shell companies back then, so maybe it was a legalese they included to seem above-board?
Man I love Ditko.
@Mike.T: "In the 60?s radiation was the solution for all of Marvels problems!!"
Actually, given that this is an Iron Man story, it's usually "TRANSISTORS!!" that explain everything.
Yeah, this story has so many holes in it (it almost) feels like a DC Silver Age comic instead! (except, you know, more DRAMATIC! XD ) My "favorite" part is how the whole thing began with a nuclear test… in UPSTATE NEW YORK! (That's where the X-Men's school is, and Angel can't fly far enough to come in from another state.) XD
guess marvel back then after using it for the hulk good not let something liker radiation tests go off and change a character. and also surprised that the thing turned out to be a test also by xavier even back then he was some piece of work
"What's keeping the evil mutants? Why don't they join me?"
I hate to tell you, Angel, but they all went to the malt shop without you…
Based on that last panel, you have to wonder if Xavier wasn't involved somehow in making Angel turn evil.
"Did the editor thanking have to do with Marvel being run like so many shell companies back then, so maybe it was a legalese they included to seem above-board?"
Yes, Marvel did that all the time during their very early years because Goodman was still playing shell games with his publications.
Of course today if Angel had pulled similar stunts, the MU government would have him locked up as a mutant terrorist.
A couple comments. Regarding Iron Man's attitude towards death: this was the era when his heart was in constant danger of failing and he had to wear his chest plate under his clothes to stay alive (which I guess meant he couldn't have any more one-night stands with debutantes); I think that he would develop a blase attitude towards death under those conditions. Also, by this point the X-Men had encountered evil mutants so Angel knew they were out there even if he didn't know about the Brotherhood. I guess Angel assumed Magneto learned his lesson from X-Men #1 and was assembling his own team of mutants to counter the X-Men.
So Tony Stark is in the habit of testing atomic bombs inside his own factory? How does he manage to keep any staff?
Not transistors, "gizsmos."
I sort of hope Lee wrote this, he could at least use the excuse he had to turn it out during a lunch break or something and did it in ten minutes. Ditko would have had to sit there drawing for however long and still be unable to come up with better dialogue.
How much did Tony weigh in that armor, anyway? Angel caught him with one hand!
Perhaps this is Stan Lee's version of "Waiting for Godot?"
Ha! Well done sir. Well done.
What I love is that Iron Man couldn't just pretend his jets ran out earlier in the fight so that he could save himself if necessary. He absolutely had to let his boot jets run out for real.
I think you meant Xavier tries calling the Avengers on the radio, the article says the "X-Men".
But man, I always loved how hokey this story is. It makes me appreciate why Apocalypse's Horseman programming was so deeply seated in Warren. He's tempted to evil with just a splash of radiation. He probably pushed him back over the edge by offering a Klondike bar.
Whatever Paul Reinman was in the Golden Age is up for discussino,but he sure was a major hack in the Silver Age.Between The MLJ books and his horrid Marvel inking,this guy either couldnt see or just couldnt draw anymore.UGH!! You could hardly see that Ditko had anything to do with that book.
The cove to this book is outstanding.Kirby and Ayers or Stone???
Boy, this story brings me back. I first read this story when I was 9 years old when it was reprinted in an issue of Giant-Size Iron Man, the first Iron Man comic I ever bought. One of those early comic collecting experiences where I can even remember the store where I found it on the newsstand. Thanks for the fond memory!
Anyone could beat anyone back in those days. Although I'm pretty sure Moon Knight recently beat Count Nefaria so…
I don't recall ever seeing that Iron Man armor. Was that just Ditko's version?
Unless I am mistaken, Ditko was the first guy to draw the version that didn't look like a large robot, and also looks closer to the Iron Man that we know today.
It seems like they put the thing about the X-Men and the Avengers as an extra bit of advertising; at the time, there was no guarantee that the newsstands were carrying every title, and if this was pre-Brotherhood, then both titles were fairly new on the stands. This comic was likely written partially as an advertisement for those comics, to gets kids interested in them.
As the world's biggest Angel fan I always loved this story. Only in the sixties could Angel ever beat Iron Man in a fight, lol.
As worstblogever says,
"Professor X calls the X-Men for help"
should read
"Professor X calls the Avengers for help".
If swapped "radiation" for "black ops", "running out of power" for "mortally wounded with a "bladed weapon", removed 75% of Pepper's clothing and extended it over 12 issues of three different titles, then I am pretty sure this story could have run as late as the '90s. Add an artist that was tracing over photographs instead of drawing and who knows …
Anyway, it is amazing how effective the six-panel grid is. That first page is an absolute clinic on superhero action. You get an establishing shot of Angel flying onto Stark property. Then, you move over his shoulder to see Iron Man trying to wave him off. Then, you get a medium shot of what Iron Man is saying that Angel can't hear from the distance that was established in the prior shot. Then, you get a two shot of Iron Man flying at Angel. Then, you get a reverse angle on the same shot as Iron Man finally gets within earshot. Finally, you get a close-up of the explosion.
That is an effective page. The problem (Angel can't hear Iron Man warning him) is simple and relatable. Lee & Ditko use it to build suspense over a handful of panels. It resolves itself with the inciting incident (the detonation of the bomb) by the end of the first page. It leads naturally to the next page and its simple, relatable goal.
It is silly, but the storytelling is top notch.
Great comment Dean. I think people are unfairly harsh toward old stuff, although many of the goofy plot holes Brian points out are inexcusable even for the era. My only real problem with this are Reinman's inks. He ruins everything IMO, apologies to any fans he may have out there among silver age enthusiasts.
So after six weeks, we're back to "That Time…" titles?
Everyone is always so eager to talk about how revolutionary those early Marvels were that it seems like their basic technical competence gets glossed over. Lee, Kirby and Ditko knew how to tell a story using comics as a medium. To me, that is the main difference between Marvel and DC stories of that vintage.
Julie Schwartz was perfectly capable turning Hawkman evil having him fight, say, Adam Strange. It was a common trope in the Weisinger era Superman titles (e.g. JIMMY OLSEN #53). However, that first page would be reduced to maybe two static panels of info dump. Panel #1 – Look, a mysterious device that turns people evil. Panel #2 – Uh oh, Hawkman has randomly picked up said device.
Lee and Ditko break things down into smaller chunks. They also add minor key goals that carry the reader through the page. Page #1 is essentially "Look, Angel is flying into a bomb test" and Page #2 is "Uh oh, the explosion turned Angel evil." It is not so different from the DC version in that regard.
What Marvel did differently was those little one-page goals and obstacles. On Page #1, Iron Man wants to stop Angel, but Angel can't hear him. On Page #2, Iron Man wants to catch Angel, but runs out of gas. It is stuff that anyone reading could comprehend.
"Panel #1 – Look, a mysterious device that turns people evil. Panel #2 – Uh oh, Hawkman has randomly picked up said device."
That made me laugh.
"So, to recap: smarter + craftier + slyer = eviler. Not that we're anti-intellectuals here in the ol' Bullpen, mind you. But seriously, Ben Grimm or Reed Richards – who would YOU trust with your wallet?"
professor x was behind it all? he wanted to test angel?
Forget "upstate New York", Stark's facility was on Long Island! Even allowing for all my plot rationalization powers (it was over the ocean, at high altitude, there was a very strong wind blowing out to sea [which is why Angel couldn't hear Iron Man] and barely trace amounts of radiation because they just wanted to generate enough to see if their new equipment was capable of tracking it in the atmosphere), that's extremely dicey. However, the rest isn't so bad.
It's not surprising that Angel is looking for other "evil mutants" since in X-Men #1, Professor X's pitch about the necessity of the X-team is that there are probably lots and lots of mutants in the world, and a good chunk of them might be evil. Angel's already had this confirmed through encounters with individual evil mutants; he doesn't have to have met a specific "Brotherhood" to look for more.
I don't have a problem with Angel catching Iron Man; he doesn't have super-strength per se, but those big-ass wings must provide a heck of an updraft when he's flapping them. He can probably lift a good deal…does anyone who has read the early X-issues know if they ever clarify this? (Obviously, he can't carry weight for very long, because of the strain on his shoulder muscles, but pulling Iron Man out of the fall and quickly setting him down I don't mind.)
And that "we thank the editors of 'X-Men' and 'The Avengers'" bit was a pretty sly way to push the existence of their TWO brand-new team books right at the start of this one. Well done, Stan.

It gets the job done, but it includes admin-only file plugin.php for every page load. That is not an implementation I would want.
Works great and fills a huge gap in functionality for WP Supercache. Thanks!
Thanks for this addon. It saves us a lot of time.
Works very wall, thanks!
Okay, installed :
1) WP Super Cache - Clear all cache
2) WP Super Cache
3) Updated htaccess file
Nothing appears to be working in terms of speed improvement as site is dreadfully slow?
Also, when admin logs out, can't get back in unless you ftp into server, disable the plugins.
So, what is it that I'm doing wrong here please?
Many Thanks
I've had no problems with it at all. It's a nice time-saver, to be able to clear cache right from the header bar. Thank you!

Do any truly natural, low sugar chewy candies exist?
I think it would be AWESOME to have some chewy, honey or other naturally sweetened candy, which are not all that sweet, just to help us with oral fixations.

Regional specialties in Auckland and Melbourne
When visiting cities, I always enjoy visiting casual, not-fancy restaurants that specialize in regional favorites unavailable or uncommon in my neck of the woods. Some US examples are deep dish pizza in Chicago, chili in Cincinnati, coney islands in Detroit, hot browns in Kentucky, cheesesteaks in Philly. When visiting Auckland and Melbourne next year, what are some distinctive regional specialties analogous to the above, and where should I go to try them?

Where can I buy gold-plated cutlery?
A recent episode of Gastropod convinced me that I should get some gold-plated cutlery as a present for a friend (it supposedly makes certain foods taste nicer).

My wife and I were talking the other night, and we were wondering about how human beings figured out what food is edible and what isn't - what possessed folks to figure out if they ate this part of the fish, but not that part, then they wouldn't die, or if they could just get past the prickly parts of this plant, the innards were good?

Terrible food phobia. Please help.
I have a terrible phobia of tuna fish, particularly when it's covered in lots of mayo. Just being around someone eating it makes me gag and want to vomit. I work at a small company where we all eat lunch together. If I see someone is eating tuna I have to make an excuse to leave the room. My coworkers are becoming suspicious. My question is how do I deal with this? It's seems ridiculous that I feel almost embarrassed to talk about it and have trouble just saying the words "tuna" let alone talking about with a counselor. Yet I feel so overwhelmed sometimes, I feel like something is wrong with me. Is there a way to overcome this obstacle on my own? I'm an otherwise healthy and mentally stable person in a long term relationship.

What's the best place to buy a heritage turkey in Los Angeles?
Planning ahead for Thanksgiving dinner in a new city. On Long Island my parents used to go to a local turkey farm where you could choose your bird and they'd slaughter it fresh for you.

Pork makes me sick
Last couple of years i notice that 2-4 hours after eating pork, (with the exception of cured pork like bacon) I feel sick: achy, stomach ache, vaguely feverish. My father admits he hasn't eaten pork in years but simply says; Just don't really like it i guess. But then he recalls that his father couldn't tolerate it. Made him sick. Poking around the internet I can't really find a reasonable explanation for this. Thoughts?
Shop Once, Eat All Week

I live in an extremely whitebread town, and nothing I have done has induced any of the Chinese restaurants to make my food in the least hot. I say "extra hot" or "extra spicy" or "with hot peppers" and the food seems exactly the same. They must have had people complain that what they ordered was "too hot." What can I say in Chinese to get the point across? How do you say the pepper paste stuff that is made out of pepper flakes and oil, and then lots of it?
Snack packs for grownups--the hangry (hungry + angry) kind
I'm a grown woman, but when I haven't eaten and my sugar drops, the "hangriness" starts. The anger, irritation, total irrationality. I've tried carrying luna bars, etc, (though that doesn't help a ton) but I think I'd like to throw together some snack packs (like,a ziplock bag with assorted goodies) for myself to toss in my bag when I'm out the door. I'll also be traveling a lot in the next couple months, and definitely need to be on top of this. I'd love some suggestions on what kinds of food to throw in my snack packs.
Making Breakfast in Bed
What is your favorite yummy thing to make for breakfast in bed? I have eggs, bread for toast, a good amount of spices, and most other options. I need recipes, but nothing involving raw food or rare ingredients.
I'm looking for real life food mysteries. Where would I find them?
I heard a story on This American Life HERE and it's a story about a sausage maker who inadvertently ruins their product by getting a new building. IN the end, it turned out the problem was they had shortened the route of the final delivery of the sausages and removed what was thought to be the unimportant work of a clerk named Irving. I thought it was fascinating and I want to find other stories like that. Where would I look for them?

Another Idol, Toppled
When I was a teenage drama queen, among my friends, knowledge of Ranier Maria Rilke's poetry was a badge of honor. Like e.e. cummings, but better — it stood the test of time, wasn't over-read at weddings, and seemed to express something about the adolescent soul (which we all interpreted as the "artist's soul" at the time) that still matured with us. A couple of new translations, some youthful letters, and a new early biography later, and I'm not surprised to find that one of the reasons he spoke so directly to me as a teen was he had so many of those qualities himself:
Popular veneration and academic admiration persist despite the fact that Rilke in person was frequently vain, self-pitying, obsessive, narcissistic, snobbish, whining, arrogant, childish, demanding, lachrymose and neurotic, as well as being given to tantrums and panics.
I'm sure I exhibited all those qualities as an adolescent, minus the genius. Still — it's worth reading this review of the new Rilke materials if only to reminisce about your own vain days (and wish you had more talent for poetry, back then).

I've glued up all 7 of the triangular formers for the lower fuselage. Next step is to tidy them up a bit: level off the tops and get the bottoms nicely flat to receive the 3/16″ square lower longeron.

Track & Field Class
The week of February 8, 2016 Todd will start a series of track & field classes in many sites in southern California for children ages 5 - 18. See the class list below for the days and times in your area. The class will teach students a different event each week for the 8 week series. Students will learn the long jump, high jump, javelin, shot put, discus throw, sprinting technique, hurdling, and run relays. It is a great class for students of all ages to learn all of the events in track & field and see what they enjoy and are good at. The class will finish the week of Mar 28-April 1.
Each class will finish with some strength or conditioning work for the last few minutes. This work will not by any means get your child into great physical shape by itself, but it will show them what they can do at home to work on strength and conditioning. Homework each week will be strength or conditioning drills taught at the end of each class along with practicing the skills worked on in class that week. The class is open to all students ages 5-18, and is good for students of all skill levels and athletic abilities.
Cost: The fee for the class will be $90 per student ($95 for charter school PO). There are no discounts for multiple siblings. The fee must be paid prior to the start of the class. If you have a charter school paying for the class, you will not be required to pay a deposit if the charter school PO is in Todd's possession before the start of the class. If there is no PO in hand prior to the start of class, you will need to give a deposit check for $90 per student which will be deposited into the bank until the class is complete and the charter school pays for the class. Todd is a vendor with all charter schools who pay for classes. Check with your charter school under TODD NASH and under CALIFORNIA ATHLETICS.
Requirements: Wear tennis shoes, athletic shorts or sweatpants, and a T-shirt. Bring water.
SHOES: Parents, please do not bring your kids to classes with Sandals, slip on shoes, or barefoot. Without proper shoes, children may be required to sit out the class. Many of the activities in class could injure your child's foot without adequate support and protection. Lace up tennis shoes that are tied tightly (not baggy, untied, and loose) are the only proper footwear. OPEN TOED SHOES ARE NOT ALLOWED! This can easily cause a broken toe!
To sign up, go to the registration page linked to the home page. THIS IS NOT AN INTEREST LIST! If you register, you are expected to pay and attend the class! Classes are planned, schedules set, and money is spent based on registration numbers, so do not register unless you will be paying for and attending the class. Also make sure you read the cancellation policy on the CONDUCT AND POLICIES page, and read the same page to understand the behavior expectations for your child. You may contact Todd Nash at California Athletics with questions, but please register through the website.

Giroud has been ruled out of Wednesday night's Champions League qualifier against Besiktas with the shin problem sustained in Saturday's draw with Everton.
It was feared the 27-year-old could be absent for two to three months, robbing Arsenal of their first choice striker just three games into the season.
However, the latest reports suggest it could be even worse that than that with the latest reports suggesting that Giroud won't play again until 2015.
French newspaper L'Equipe, the Daily Mail and the Daily Mirror are all saying that the Frenchman is likely to be out for the year of the year.
"On Sunday he had a medical check and he needed to have further investigations," said Wenger, who revealed an announcement will be made over his fitness on Wednesday afternoon or evening.
"The first news wasn't fantastic, but I'm not a doctor so I wait for tomorrow's (Wednesday's) complete examination and decision over how long he'll be out for.
"It can be (long term), we'll see. I don't know (if it's broken). It's sad for us, but for the moment we are focused on the game."
Wenger may be forced into the transfer market in search of a replacement if Giroud is missing for any length of time. The Frenchman, however, refuses to panic buy before the window closes on Monday.
"We have plenty of players at centre forward. In England as soon as you have a problem, people want you to buy," he said.
"Unfortunately, I can give you some clubs that every time they lose a game they say they might need to buy more.
"We are 24 hours from a big game and our focus is more on that than the transfer window.
"I've learnt one thing in our job - you say nothing categorically."
Summer signing Alexis Sanchez could operate as the lone striker against Besiktas, although doubts have been raised over his ability to perform the role.
Sanchez was replaced at half-time at Goodison following an ineffective 45 minutes as the focal point of Arsenal's attack, but Wenger is convinced he can operate as more than a winger.
"You do not convict a player on one half. It was not all bad what he did, there was some quality in what he did," Wenger said.
"It was just that on the day we needed more physical presence. When you're 2-0 down you don't play counter attack."
Yaya Sanogo, Lukas Podolski and Joel Campbell are also options, although it is Sanogo, who missed out against Everton because of a hamstring injury, who is most likely to start.
Wenger, who ruled out Podolski leaving in the transfer window, is confident he has the options to cover for Giroud's absence in the second leg of the qualifier at the Emirates Stadium.
"Yes of course, why should I not have that confidence?" Wenger said.
"Nobody can image that when one player is missing, no matter how big the player is, the team can't win a game any more."
Arsenal are seeking a 17th successive season in the lucrative group stage of the Champions League, but Wenger insists it would not be a financial disaster should they fail to qualify.
The first leg finished in a goalless draw in Istanbul.
"It will affect us because we'll have less income, but it will not affect our balance sheet in a dramatic way because we can survive without that," Wenger said.
"We want to be in the Champions League because we want to play top level football.
"Financially we've always adapted. When we had small resources, we always adapted to having small resources."

Diabetes Health Center
African Americans at Greater Risk of Type 2 Diabetes
Helaine Resnick, PhD, a research fellow in the epidemiology, demography and biometry program at the National Institute on Aging of the National Institutes of Health, reviewed the study for WebMD. "I absolutely agree with this paper's conclusion that a lot of the risk of developing type 2 diabetes in this population is modifiable," she says.
Resnick says she believes that primary care doctors do not do enough to emphasize the dangers of diabetes. The condition, she says, is like high blood pressure in many ways: "It is not an acute condition and it isn't painful, so both patients and caregivers may not pay much attention to it, particularly when [other medical] conditions that are more acute exist.
"However, as we're seeing the population get much more overweight, and we're also seeing many more people living into their 70s and 80s, I believe we're going to see many more people with the manifestations of diabetes." Identifying the risk factors that can be changed and developing ways to intervene are crucial, she says.
- A new study shows that African Americans, especially women, are much more likely to develop type 2 diabetes than their white counterparts.
- Most of the difference can be explained by known risk factors, including obesity (among women only), family history of diabetes, fewer years of formal education, and less physical activity.
- Much of the risk for diabetes among the African American population can be modified with lifestyle changes, but a yet-unknown genetic or environmental factor may also contribute.

I used to use Slamd64 before, and it was easy. It came with all 32-bit libraries as well. Since official 64-bit Slackware is released, Slamd64 is no longer maintained. However, Slackware seems to be pure 64bit, so I cannot run 32bit apps. I searched the net and found some instructions, but they all require that I install some package manager (slapt-get, whatever). I'd like to do it without messing too much with the system. Where should I start?

Now my baby sleeps a 5 hour strech at one month. Is it ok to let him sleep that long? Or should I wake and feed him at 4 hours? During day he asks every 2 hours...
Now my baby sleeps a 5 hour strech at one month. Is it ok to let him sleep that long? Or should I wake and feed him at 4 hours? During day he asks every 2 hours...
Let him sleep he will wake if he is hungry. :)
"Humans have a knack for choosing precisely the things that are worst for them."-- Albus Dumbledore
i agree, but dont let him go much longert then five hours though
Happily married and living the dream (2007)
Blessed with DS (2009), DS (2011), and a Blessing Due (8/14/2014)
Let your baby sleep! As long as the baby gets a certain number of feedings in a 24 hour period (can't remember how many, sorry!) it doesn't matter if he goes longer at night. That's how you get to the point of them sleeping all night! Both of my babies slept through by 8 weeks old and they both nursed LOTS during the day. They are both big healthy boys today. I am hoping that this one will do that too! It's a GOOD thing!
DH Mike, DS's: Cody - 7 & Jamie - 5 & Micah 4; Angel baby July '11, lost at 16 weeks. Lauren - July 2012!
I had the same question about a week ago and called my pediatrician over it (my son is 4.5 weeks currently). They said that five hours is great! If your son is breast fed, don't let him go longer than five hours (according to the dr). If he is formula fed, don't let him go longer than six. At this point....when they get a few weeks older they can go longer. So glad your little guy is sleeping a five hour stretch. Does he do one five hour stretch, or 2?
Let him sleep, but don't go too much beyond 5 hours just yet. I am reading On Becoming BabyWise and am working on getting my DD to 5 hours would be awesome!! Right now Kopelyn gives me a 4 hour and a 2.5-3 hour sleeping period throughout the night. I wish she would do two 4 hours, but I'll take the one that I get now. Consider yourself lucky.
�Married 9.13.08;�(DD)1 Brionnah Marie-9/14/97;�(DD)2�Kopelyn Marisa-7/13/09; (DD)3 Kieradyn Marlaina-6/21/11
Let your baby sleep! My first slept 5 - 6 hour stretches at night right from newborn! :) Enjoy your sleep. Baby will wake and asked to be fed if hungry :)
Mommy to 3 :)
Thanks a lot.. Yep, I am sure to enjoy the sleep :)

Northland has been rocked by another alleged sexual crime
committed by an employee at one of the area's schools.
A school counsellor has appeared in a Northland court charged
with indecent assault after a student complaint led to a
police investigation.
The name of the school where he worked is suppressed. A
support team from the Ministry of Education moved into the
school this month after the allegation emerged.
Katrina Casey, the ministry's head of sector enablement and
support, said the allegation was made by a student.
"The staff member has been stood down, and we are working
with the school as they support their students and staff ...
we will work with the school for as long as they need us.
"The principal and the board are currently working with a
range of agencies including the police, and are focused on
preparing for the start of term three."
The staff member was a counsellor working at the school when
the alleged offending took place.
The criminal charge comes after a number of sexual abuse
cases against minors in the Far North.
The most high-profile was that of former Pamapuria School
deputy principal James Parker, who is serving preventive
detention on more than 70 sexual abuse charges involving 20
victims from the school.
An inquiry into Parker's employment and sexual offending led
to an Education Review Office report into the safety of
students in schools. Released in January, it found that a
third of schools were unlikely to recognise situations when
students could be at risk from staff and respond
Ms Casey said schools were required to police-vet potential
employees, and were responsible for hiring staff and

Zoey was born at 8:21 this morning, the C Section went perfectly! I started to have a bit of a panic attack while getting the spinal, the anesthesiologist had some trouble getting it....something about calcium build up not exactly sure but I will be asking about it. After the spinal was in place I started having the panicky feeling that I was going to feel pain but God intervened and had me start throwing up which was seriously a blessing even though it was awful. It was the perfect distraction while they finished setting up and brought in my husband.
Zoey was 8 lbs 1 oz and 21 inches long. Both her and I are doing fabulous!

text: Years ago I read a novel I only vaguely recall. The central premise was that a scientist was studying some class of matter which does not interact with our baryonic matter, much if at all. During his research he discovers that there is a whole universe of this ghost matter, and in fact a planet of it coexisting within Earth. This planet gets tugged out of its orbit (I think by some large passing 'ghost world' body) and there is a whole sequence describing the scientist, who has since learned to see into this world, watching as 'people' and structures rise and fall out of our world due to the rotation of the ghost world. I seem to remember that he eventually figures out how to communicate with them, and maybe even interact physically? That's all I can recall, but I'd really like to recover that book. Any notions?

Rachel Bilson in a Denim jacket and Kristen Bell in Paige Floral Ankle Peg
Talk about stylish friends! Rachel Bilson and Kristen Bell were seen running errands together while out in LA. Rachel wore a denim jacket over her white sundress and a pair of Shoemint sandals.
Kristen wore a pair of Paige Denim's floral ankle peg skinny jeans in Chello wash with a chambray shirt and booties. I'm not sure whose outfit I like better, I think both of their outfits are really reflective of each of their personal styles. Buy Paige online at Singer22.com.
Kristen Bell in J Brand 811 Mid-Rise Skinny Jeans
Sharing the stage with Toby Keith, Kristen Bell answers questions during a press conference. Kristen and Toby were hosting the 2012 CMT Music Awards, which premiered on June 6th. Toby recently said how he's been helping Kristen brush up on her country music to prep for the awards!
Kristen wore a pair of J Brand's 811 Mid-rise skinny jeans in Wink with a flowy floral print blouse and a pair of boots. I love the gray wash of the jeans with the blue flowers and print. I'm not sure about the cowboy boots with the outfit though, but she's hosting the CMT awards so I'm sure they're part of her wardrobe! You can buy J Brand jeans online at JBrandjeans.com
Kristen Bell in AG Adriano Goldschmied
Kristen Bell got snapped by the photographers as she spent the day going for a bicycle ride with fiance Dax Shepard in Los Angeles, California.
Kristen wore a pair of AG Adriano Goldschmied's The Stilt jeans in Neon Pink for the day with a grey sweater and brown boots. I really love these jeans! We spotted them on Jennifer Love Hewitt a couple of weeks ago and I hope we get even more celeb sightings of them! Especially in the other colours too! Buy these jeans online at AG Jeans for $159.

Kristen Bell in Henry & Belle
Kristen Bell was seen leaving the Kate Sommerville Salon in West Hollywood, California last week. She chose to wear Henry & Belle's Signature bootcut jeans in Dark Vintage for the day. I can't say I am actually a fan of this outfit though, it reminds me a lot of what a farmer would wear.
I still haven't tried Henry & Belle jeans, their styles look like they are really nice though, they are simple and plain but they have flattering fits from what I have seen. What do you readers think of the brand? You can buy their jeans online at Henry & Belle.

User Authentication With Express and Mongo
Learn how to implement a custom user authentication system that controls users access to web resources using Node.js using Express and MongoDB. The system lets users sign up, log in, and log out, limiting access to password-protected resources. Express is a popular web framework for creating MVC applications and RESTful APIs in Node.js. Express lets developers define routes and middleware for submitting and retrieving data in our database. We will leverage the document based NoSQL database, MongoDB, to store our user data by creating a user model with mongoose. Mongoose is an open source Node package for defining data models for an application and connecting to MongoDB.

Upcoming Releases
The following items are scheduled to be released soon. You can also visit our content roadmap for more info.
PHP Basics - REVISED
In this course I'll walk you through the basics of the language, ranging from basic statements to conditionals. We'll be creating a simple "Unit Converter" as well as a "Daily Exercise Program". We'll then finish up by combining those programs with HTML to create a personal webpage to demonstrate your skills.
Django Class-based Views
Django view functions are simple and easy to use but sometimes you find yourself repeating a lot of the same work over and over. Luckily, Django also offers a way to create views as classes which can lead to cleaner, more reusable code. Class-based views have a lot of nooks and crannies, though, so let us show you around this powerful tool!
PHP Arrays and Control Structures
This course builds on the foundational skills covered in the PHP Basics course. We'll explore conditionals, loops and the compound variable -- arrays. All of which help your write more powerful and intelligent programs using less code.
Intermediate C#
This course builds on what we learned in C# Objects. We'll learn more essential principles of object-oriented programming as we improve the Treehouse Defense game.
VR in Unity
Virtual reality is the combination of a head-mounted display and some clever software that creates the sensation of being in another place. What was once science fiction has rapidly become one of the most practical avenues to creating immersive entertainment, simulation and training, architectural visualization, and more. In this course, we'll learn how to setup popular headsets like the Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive within the Unity game engine. Then, we'll create a fun and challenging basketball game with realistic physics and sound that can be played in virtual reality.
Querying Relational Databases
Building off of previous SQL courses, this course will begin to introduce the student to more complex database concepts. Students will learn to think about data as sets and subsets and practice achieving desired query results via such operations as inner and outer joins, unions and except. They will also be introduced to the concepts of Set Theory and Database Normalization to aid in understanding good query practices.
Kotlin for Java Developers
Kotlin is a newer language that runs in a JVM and and can be used to develop Android apps. You can interweave Kotlin and Java in the same app, and it brings new features for better safety, readability, and tooling.
Introducing ES2015
Learn the basics of the ECMAScript 2015 JavaScript standard. JavaScript has come a long way since it's inception in 1995. The ECMAScript 2015 specification brought a lot of improvements, the largest set of changes the language has seen to-date. In this course, we'll review some of the new features and demonstrate how they can be used to build better JavaScript applications.
Rails Basics
In this course, we're going to set up a simple blogging app with just a handful of Rails commands. Then, we'll dive into what we've created and help you really understand what's going on. We'll show you how to work with models, views, and controllers to quickly add new features to your app. By the end of this course, you'll be ready to create basic web apps in Rails.
React Router Basics
Learn how to use React Router, a popular library in the React community, to manage navigation and rendering of components in React applications.
ASP.NET MVC Forms
In this course, you'll learn how to create web forms using ASP.NET MVC. Along the way, you'll use various field types and form validation as we build a web version of the Fitness Frog application from C# Basics.
React.js Basics
Get up and running with React, a JavaScript library for building user interfaces. React allows you to describe how your app should be displayed in a very easy to understand way. It also helps eliminate the complexity that comes with updating your DOM elements when the user interacts with your application. React provides a new way to think about building web applications and will change the way you think about interactivity on the web.

I cloned a vmware machine on vSphere client, which meant I needed to run NewSID or sysprep to change the SID. As newSID isn't available any more, I ran sysprep without checking the generalise option, this didn't solve the problem (inconsistent sid), so I ran it again but chose the generalise option this time. This solved the problem, but for some reason created another - the server won't configure the static IP address that I assigned to it - it uses a 169 address instead. If I choose to have it automatically assigned an IP it picks up the correct address. There isn't anything wrong with my network, the problem will be on this box.
I have quite proficient networking skills, but this problems eludes me. No other servers have this problem, just the cloned one.

I moved to the West Suburbs a few months ago, and am looking to network within the NBC, or really any mom/pregnancy/birthing community in general.
My ultimate goal is to become a doula and provide music therapy assisted childbirth (I am a current MT-BC as well)- I am working towards my doula certification, but am having a hard time finding/breaking into the community. I work closer to downtown, so I am willing to travel to mom groups or meetings!
I don't know where to start! :)
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much,
There is a facebook group for Chicagoland doulas
If you are starting out as a new doula, joining the Chicago Volunteer Doulas is a great way to get experience and meet other doulas. Also, I like to attend childbirth classes in my area. Its a great way to know what clients are learning in their class, and also to connect with an educator that refers moms to doulas.

A few days ago, Cliffy B. made a comment on Twitter that made some waves in the gaming community. Tweeting at Capcom, he suggested that they allow him to help them "fix" Resident Evil. The comment caused a cascade of speculation – not much of it particularly positive – throughout the gaming world. However strange the suggestion may seem, given that the man has spent the better part of a decade making the dudliest of the bro-iest gaming franchise out there – Gears of War – when you think about it, this may not be such a bad idea.
For starters, with Gears of War, the man has damn near perfected a formula that a Resident Evil game helped popularize: over-the-shoulder third-person shooters. Whatever you may think about the melodramatic plot and the meat-head marine formula, it is hard to deny that the game doesn't have slick mechanics. Though Resident Evil 6 finally made some strides in the right direction by allowing you to, wait for it, MOVE WHILE YOU'RE SHOOTING, the actual controls were pretty slippery. Cliffy could help make the game work at a mechanical level, no doubt.
Another thing that Mr. B is pretty good at is creating is a sense of atmosphere. Though the second and third entries from the GoW series got far more action packed, it is hard to deny there weren't a fair amount of tense moments in the first game. Who remembers the "Lethal Dusk" level, where you had to defend your friend from a swam of lethal bats with a spotlight? What about "Downpour," where you navigate your way through a derelict imulsion refinery, Locust hiding in all sorts of places waiting to pop out? And who can forget about the first encounter with a Locust Berserker? If the man can create a creepy atmosphere when you're playing as a 250 pound, armed marine capable of curb stomping a creature's brains into oblivion like it's nothing, imagine what he could do with Resident Evil's characters and some zombies?
The mere fact that the man can do horror on some level should be enough, but others are not convinced, given his tendency to lean towards the more action packed. When one thinks about Cliff's recent decision to leave Epic, though, this could be interpreted as a change of heart. If he loved working on strictly action-packed third-person shooters, he would probably still be working on them. This is just my humble opinion, but I believe that he is over that whole particular genre, or at least getting over it.
Given the chance, Cliff could take his tremendous amount of talent as a developer and put it to good use on not only making Resident Evil scary again, but modernizing it as well. We all saw what happened when the confused bunch over at Capcom tried to do that with Resident Evil 6. It was a mish-mash of "me too" ideas that aped many modern gaming tropes in the worst way. I truly think that Cliff can show Capcom how to avoid these pitfalls and make a cohesive project that not only scares, but exudes confidence in what the series is all about without trying to copy everyone else.
