I am pretty sure that I have an email with somebody's phone number in it, I'll call him Bob. But all I know is the person's name. I have lots of email that includes their name so I'd like to use Outlook or Windows 7 search to find "Bob and (???) ???-????" where ? is a wildcard for any digit. I've tried that exact search and it doesn't work. Does Windows 7 search support anything like this and if so what is the syntax?

How Christian is Tea Party Libertarianism?
The insurgent Tea Party and its Libertarian philosophy is a political phenomenon, not a religious one.
More Than Equals, co-authored by Chris Rice and the late Spencer Perkins, is considered one of the pivotal books in the Christian racial reconciliation movement that found its greatest momentum in the early and mid-1990s.
I am writing to educate Michael Steele and those whose understanding of Native Americans are as superficial as his. On January 4th Steele, the leader of the Republican Party, held up his hand in the old Indian parody style of "how," and he accompanied the gesture with the words, "honest Injun."

I liked my sons Sand Scorcher so much I converted my Buggy Champ to Herbie.
My son and I are working on this Sand Scorcher.
I'd be happy to help out anyone that I can, time permitting. I don't want a hobby to turn into another job.
I eliminated a lot of slop in the front end of my Buggy Champ today. I'll take photos the next time I take it apart.
What I did was bore new upper and lower tubes for the front end with .228" +...
Got it LB, thanks!
I think I figured it out. This is the original Sand Scorcher I picked up on E-bay. I will tear it completely down for a re-build once I get the new one finished, but I did get some new tires, install...
How do you do that?
I've found couple of brushless conversions guys have done looking while searching the web. It would be nice to get one set up so that you could program the throttle curve to go easy on the...
I started on the Sand Scorcher for my son, this mod takes a ton of slop out of the rear end. I drilled and tapped the shock screw hole all of the way through to the counterbore for the extra bearing,...
Yeah, they'll be bead locks once I fit them to the center sections. I'm going to make another set to fit Sand Scorcher tires.
Some pics of the complted Buggy Champ.
Also, if anyone else...
I almost have my Buggy Champ done per the instructions. I have an original Sand Scorcher here for comparison and the first thing I notice is that the re-release front suspension has a way sloppier...
I machined some solid wheel halves to spruce up the stock plastic wheel centers. I want to use these for another set of tires. My question is, what tires are available that will fit Buggy Champ...
My wheels came in yesterday. Today I fabricated a skid plate, and finished the paint on the body. I think I'm going to leave the driver out, I never put him in my Rough Rider either.
Glenn, I think I like the plain chassis plate better than the fancy ones, mine hasn't arrived yet though.
Skinned, I like those wheels a lot. Where did you get them?
Yeah, but he'd just want to paint the driver to look like Luke Skywalker or something. :D
Kids aren't into that sort of thing as much as they used to be. I used to paint every detail, down to the...
The ball diff is the main thing I'm waiting on. BTW, is there someone that paints details like the dash panel and the driver? My hands aren't steady enough, and my eyes aren't sharp enough to do that...
I'm still waiting on parts, but I started on the paint, fabricated a new skid plate/bumper, and began assembling the camber correction kit for my Buggy Champ.
The disease worsens, I have a Sand Scorcher inbound for my son now. I plan to build the Buggy Champ with the differential, aluminum chassis, sport tuned motor, and camber correction kit, but leave...
I guess I'll find out! What radio do you recommend? I had a real nice 7ch Futaba for my helicopters.
I think I've ordered everything I'll need except the servo. Any input would be appreciated on my choice of parts.
Buggy Champ kit from Tower.
Rear suspension/cage ...
I will. After some more searching I've decided to go with these wheels.
Edit: What is a good servo for these?
Well, I ordered the RC Channel rear suspension kit, the ball differential kit, and I found another type of aluminum chassis. The chassis isn't as fancy as the Awesome Alloys one, but it should be a...
Wow, it looks like getting back into RC cars is going to be way easier on my checkbook than helicopters were! Thanks for the links.
I haven't been into RC cars for almost 30 years. This morning I decide to see if there's any info on the web regarding the RC buggy I had back then, I couldn't even remember who the mfg. was or...

Hey, I'm Paul & Debbie!
I am from Dublin, Ireland and Debbie is from Brazil, we have lived in San Francisco for over 28 years.
I used to own and manage a travel agency, Debbie is a relocation specialist, she helps executives moving to San Francisco, so she is an expert on the city.
We have both visited over 60 countries and have stayed in tons of hotels and vacation apartments. We have stayed in good vacation and fantastic vacation apartments. We like to think our two San Francisco vacation apartments and our Dublin Holiday apartment are all in the "Fantastic" range. We are very happy that we have never had a negative review.
We absolutely love San Francisco and Dublin and like to share recommendations on our favorite restaurants and places to see etc.
Many Thanks
Paul & Debbie

Conflict In Libya
Where Is Iman Al-Obeidi?
"Parents of a Libyan woman who claimed she was detained by Moammar Gadhafi's troops and later gang raped said in interviews aired Monday that their daughter is being held hostage at the Libyan leader's compound in Tripoli," The Associated Press reports.
Meanwhile, a spokesman for the Gadhafi regime says that Iman al-Obeidi has been freed and is with a sister in Tripoli.
The AP also produced this video report, which includes scenes from Saturday, when al-Obeidi came to a hotel in Tripoli where many journalists are staying and was hustled away by security.

Apology: General in Iraq apologizes after U.S. soldier uses Quran for target practice.
Apology, huh? The right move is to send the bigoted fucktard back to West Virginia.
I mean, not to defend Islam or any other religion, but sending Christian triumphalists to a Muslim country is no way to build a bridge.
We're not trying to build a bridge, we're trying to maintain a fiction. Soldiers, Iraqis, Qurans don't really matter one way or the other.
I still haven't heard an apology over those soldiers putting an American flag over the face of Saddam's statue. Way to prove to the Iraqis that this isn't an imperialist war. Seriously, does the military bother with any kind of sensitivity training before launching an illegal war in a part of the world where we're widely hated?
The scene was a museum garden, where Mr. Bush and his wife, Laura, sat in wrought-iron chairs under the shade of an olive tree, joined by a dozen young people who had been selected by the American Embassy.
When the president lamented that he has been asked why he dislikes Muslims not true, he said, its just what they say on television 16-year-old Henriette Charcar, who identified herself as a Palestinian Christian, took Mr. Bush gently to task.
I think it comes out that you dont like Muslims, Ms. Charcar told the president, because in most of your speeches you do tend to relate extremism to Muslims.
Mr. Bush looked slightly taken aback. He started to defend himself but then, in a moment rare for a president who often seems convinced of his own correctness, he switched course.
Actually, what I say is youre not a religious person if youre a murderer, he told Ms. Charcar. But youre right. Ive got to do a better job of making it clear when I talk about Islam, I talk about a peaceful religion.
can anyone else remember another single instance of bush admitting someone else was right?
UW may have turned a whole lot of students away but WWU was more selective this year than UW.
Ok here's the ferry story in a nutshell:
because we eliminated the car tab tax, they lost most of their funding for improvements and they had to raise fares, a lot. But they didn't change their predictions of ever increasing ridership and they just went on planning to move terminals and build newer, bigger, nicer terminals at a time of decreased ridership, lower revenues, etc.
Oh and they also forgot to check the hulls so they have suddenly pulled some boats out due to rusting hulls.
Once the car tab funding source was removed......they couldn't tell they should CHANGE THEIR PLANS AND PROJECTIONS?
How were they to know that removing their major source of funding would, you know....impact anything?
What is up with people launching themselves into icy cold, snowmelt-swollen rivers not wearing life jackets (which is not to mention their complete lack of even rudimentary boating skills), and THEN EXPECTING A FREE RESCUE!?
There's a problem with that argument, tim iman: ferry revenues are not lower. They're higher. Revenue in '06 was HALF AGAIN what it was in '01.
Lower ridership doesn't mean dick. They're taking in more money every year.
What's increased even faster than revenues, though, is costs. There is some reason to believe that they don't have a clue how to control costs. Building a shitload of new impossibly fancy terminals wasn't too bright, that's for sure; several of the fanciest are total boondoggles from top to bottom, and they are insanely out of whack with requirements. Bremerton is a case in point.
Notice that they spent $36 million from 2003-2006 on new terminals -- not BUILDING them, but in DESIGN AND PLANNING for six terminals.
Immigrant Haters part 2 is a great read! Thanks. From the article, the nation's largest supplier of kosher beef, Agriprocessor, sounds like the most unethical business I've read about in a long time....business ethics, environmental standards, child labor laws... who gives a shit... i loves me a hot pastrami sandwich!

I made this for a potluck good-bye party. I really liked it, i would say it was middling received by the other guests. I served it with focaccia and also spooned onto crackers topped with cheese. I used royal trumpet mushrooms, as that was what I had. They exuded a lot of liquid, so it took a bit longer for the onions/mushrooms to caramelize.
This was such a good recipe and was finished within a few hours (we were hungry!). I also couldn't find frozen onion so I used raw small onion.
Did this the other day with just some sesame and sunflower seed toast and a supermarket bistro salad with balsamic vinegar on the side as a starter. I followed the recipe to the letter (apart from using fresh onions) and it was absolutely delicious. Might have been as I was using some notoriously strong organic garlic but I think I'll reduce it a bit next time as it overpowered the rest a bit.
This was very nice! I couldn't find frozen sliced onion so used a fresh red onion, cut in half, then thinly sliced. I did not blitz this in the food processor, just left as is - I would do it that way again but start with onions sliced a little smaller. I filled pre-made fillo shells with the spread then topped them with slices of brie cheese and warmed in the oven; feta would also be good, I think. Thanks for the recipe!
I love onions, leeks and mushrooms so this was so very good! I enjoyed it with wheat French bread toasts. I halved the recipe, but didn't drizzle oil at the end. Thanks!

What is the difference between OpenWrap and NuGet. And what you prefer ?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
closed as primarily opinion-based by Mrchief, rene, gunr2171, ProgramFOX, TylerH Jul 21 '15 at 19:03
Many good questions generate some degree of opinion based on expert experience, but answers to this question will tend to be almost entirely based on opinions, rather than facts, references, or specific expertise.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
OpenWrap is an open-source project providing for dependency management in applications, not only at build time but also at runtime.
As such, our features are targetted at dynamic resolution of dependencies, be it for composite WPF applications, web app development or system-wide utilities. This makes our implementation very different from what NuGet does.
So here are the things that are different (I'll probably forget a lot, but ah well).
That's just for the differences, as that's what you asked about, so I won't bother you with what we do the same as other package managers.
Just wanted to chime in with some thoughts from the NuGet side of things. Seb leaves out a few details that are worth pointing out.
One of the key tenets of NuGet (and an important difference with OpenWrap) is that it doesn't try to change the way you work. Instead, it makes it much easier to do the things that you already do today.
Say for instance that you're trying to use a Foo library, which depends on a Bar library. Today, you'd have to manually find those libraries, copy them to your machine and add references to them. Then later newer versions will come out and you'll go through similar motions to get them updated.
In such scenario, both NuGet and OW will make it easy to bring in those references, but the key difference is that NuGet does it in a way that is completely non-invasive. i.e. it will get the binaries onto your machine and references them in the same way as if you had done it manually. After it has done that, your project file is completely 'normal', without any ties to NuGet at build or runtime.
What this means is that if you get some libraries via NuGet and put your project in source control, another developer is then able to use your project without needing NuGet at all.
The OpenWrap approach has merits as well, but to go that route, you have to be willing to be using OpenWrap all the way, and not easily be able to move away from it.
There are many other differences (like rich VS support in NuGet), but this is what I view as the most fundamental difference between the two.

Police have released the name of an 84-year-old man who died
in a freak accident at a Bay of Plenty rubbish dump on
Henning Petersen, of Waihi, was dropping off rubbish at the
Waihi Refuse Station about 10.20am when he got into trouble.
"What we know is that while reversing at the refuge centre on
Sunday morning shortly after 10am, Mr Petersen has got into
difficulty and as a result lost control of his car. During
the course of this loss of control he has been partially
ejected from the vehicle and suffered life-threatening
injuries," Inspector Marcus Lynam said.
"Just how Mr Petersen suffered his injuries is at the centre
of the serious crash unit investigation."
Because the site was accessible to the public the death was
being treated as a road fatality, raising Waikato's road toll
to 44 deaths from 40 crashes.
Transfer station staff member Alan Irvine saw the accident
unfold in front of him.
"He's gone to reverse his vehicle and he's opened his door to
see where he's reversing and he's put his foot down on the
accelerator too hard. The car spun around and threw him out
of the car.
"He was very lucky that the car didn't run over him. He was
dragged for about a metre before he was totally thrown out."
Mr Irvine said the man, who visited the dump about once a
fortnight, had nasty cuts and grazes.

White Sparkling Sugar on fondant. Simple, yet elegant. This is my first practice cake for my first wedding :) I think it needs more sparkles, but I need to find a better way to put them on - maybe someone holding the cake or a tilting decorating table?

Pattern Languages of Program Design 4by Brian Foote, Hans Rohnert, Neil Harrison, Brian Foote
The fourth volume in a series of books/p>
Design patterns have moved into the mainstream of commercial software development as a highly effective means of improving the efficiency and quality of software engineering, system design, and development. Patterns capture many of the best practices of software design, making them available to all software engineers.
The fourth volume in a series of books documenting patterns for professional software developers, Pattern Languages of Program Design 4 represents the current and state-of-the-art practices in the patterns community. The 29 chapters of this book were each presented at recent PLoP conferences and have been explored and enhanced by leading experts in attendance. Representing the best of the conferences, these patterns provide effective, tested, and versatile software design solutions for solving real-world problems in a variety of domains.
This book covers a wide range of topics, with patterns in the areas of object-oriented infrastructure, programming strategies, temporal patterns, security, domain-oriented patterns, human-computer interaction, reviewing, and software management. Among them, you will find:
- The Role object
- Proactor
- C++ idioms
- Architectural patterns for security
- Reports
- Composing multimedia artifacts
- Customer interaction
As patterns evolve beyond the realm of research into the world of practical software development, more and more developers are discovering that reusable design patterns (such as those contained in this volume) can help them achieve faster, more cost-effective delivery of their applications.

Read an Excerpt
Of Phish and Phugues
The year is 1621; the place, Plymouth, in what will eventually become Massachusetts. A group of settlers from England arrived the previous November and are now setting out to plant crops. Before long a native named Squanto stops by. Evidently a gardening enthusiast, he offers to tutor the settlers in farming techniques, first by placing fish in the ground to enrich the soil. This and other tricks of farming in the New World contribute to a bountiful harvest. The settlers survive the ensuing winter, thanks in large part to Squanto and his sage advice.
An apocryphal story, no doubt, but modern horticulturists can corroborate Squanto's fishy insights. In fact, you can buy fish fertilizers in many gardening stores. Our agricultural forebears may not have had a deep knowledge of plant physiology, but they knew what worked. And they passed it along.
Over a hundred years later and half a world away, in what is now Germany, a master of a different sort plies his trade. According to legend, Johann Sebastian Bach pays a visit to Frederick the Great, King of Prussia. After exchanging pleasantries, the king asks Bach to play something for him. Dutifully and without hesitation, Bach sits down at the organ and improvises a five-part fugue. The king, an eminent composer himself, is awed.
Bach's work is the very essence of baroque music. And he passes that mastery alongseveral of his children also become important musicians and composers.
Lore flows from one generation to the next. Languages are vivid examples, perpetuating and evolving through oral traditionwords and concepts passing from person toperson. A case in point is English, which traces its roots to numerous languages, including German, Greek, and Latin. Herein lies a problem: the multifaceted heritage of English creates a potpourri of spelling conventions that is downright bewildering. For example, we spell the "f" sound with the letters "ph" in "physics" but with "f" in "fish" and "fugue." There are historical and linguistic reasons for such anomalies, but they don't matter much to us. We just memorize that it's "fugue," not "phugue."
In software we don't have centuries of history to draw on. We didn't learn agriculture from ancient farmers, nor can we trace our roots through the Middle English of Chaucer. But we have been around long enough to learn a few things. The most important among them is this: We must share what we have learned. If we keep knowledge to ourselves, hoarding it like pack rats, then our field will surely stagnate. We doom colleague and successor alike to repeat our mistakes. Gradually, reinvention displaces innovation. Progress slows. The field goes fallow.
Patterns are conduits of knowledge, capturing and conveying time-proven practices. Patterns are more than tricks or seemingly arbitrary spelling rulesthey impart understanding. They teach you not just what and how but also why and when. That's where their real power lies.
What can we reasonably expect of patterns? Maybe they will help other people develop better software than we have. Maybe they'll allow people to build on what we've done right. We certainly hope patterns will help others avoid the pitfalls we've experienced.
But we can expect more. The pervasiveness of computer technology exerts a strong influence on society. Influence of such magnitude must be exercised responsibly. While patterns won't force you to act responsibly, they can ease the grind of reinvention, freeing you to consider higher purposes. Ultimately, patterns make life better for everyonesoftware user and developer alike.
These are ambitious and humbling goals, to be sure. We dedicate this fourth volume in the Pattern Languages of Program Design series to their attainment.
Now for a word about the contributors to this book. A compendium of this size won't come together without many people pulling together. We are hugely grateful for their work. Specifically, we thank the authors for making this book necessary, to paraphrase Yogi Berra. We're referring not just to the authors you find here but also to the 60 percent or so of submitters whose works were not accepted. The exceptionally high quality of the submissions guaranteed the quality of the book, although it also made our job more difficult!
We recruited a veritable army of reviewers to help sift through the submissions. We owe them our sanity: Francis Anderson, Brad Appleton, Jorge Arjona, Owen Astrannen, Ken Auer, Jeff Barcalow, Kent Beck, Mike Beedle, Steve Berczuk, Manish Bhatt, Rosana Braga, John Brant, Kyle Brown, Jose Burgos, Frank Buschmann, Andy Carlson, Ian Chai, Alistair Cockburn, Jens Coldewey, James Coplien, Ward Cunningham, David Cymbala, Fonda Daniels, Dennis DeBruler, Michel DeChamplain, David Delano, Dwight Deugo, Paul Dyson, Philip Eskelin, Javier Galve, Julio Garcia, Alejandra Garrido, John Goodsen, Robert Hanmer, Kevlin Henney, Robert Hirschfeld, Ralph Johnson, Wolfgang Keller, Elizabeth Kendall, Norm Kerth, Charles Knutson, Frederick Koh, Philippe Lalanda, Manfred Lange, Doug Lea, Mary Lynn Manns, Klaus Marquardt, Paulo Masiero, Skip McCormick, Regine Meunier, Oscar Nierstrasz, James Noble, Alan O'Callaghan, Don Olson, William Opdyke, Dorina Petriu, Irfan Pyarali, Andreas Rausch, Dirk Riehle, Linda Rising, Antonio Rito Silva, Don Roberts, Gustavo Rossi, Cecilia Rubira, Andreas Ruping, Doug Schmidt, Ari Schoenfeld, Dietmar Schutz, Christa Schwanninger, Joe Seda, Peter Sommerlad, Michael Stal, Paul Taylor, Jenifer Tidwell, Dwayne Towell, and David Ungar.
We would like to give special thanks to John Vlissides, the managing editor of the series. He has provided us with encouragement and, occasionally, a needed prod. Neil would like to especially thank his two coeditors. Working with you has been a joy.
Finally, we would like to give special thanks to our families, friends, and coworkers who have supported us through this process. We hope that by the time you read this, we will be back to our cheery selves.Neil Harrison, Boulder, Colorado

Hey ulfben,
First of all, thanks for the plugin, it's been a fantastic help for me. However I have a slight usability problem that I'm hoping to resolve.
I'm using categories for the upload directory structure. The problem is, if a user uploads something before choosing a category, the uploads go to the default directory. I understand of course why this happens, but it's a bit of a problem since I have files being saved in the wrong directory.
More generally this of course applies to changes in categories as well. If the category of the post is changed after the upload, the file is not moved to a different directory.
Would it be possible to add this functionality? This would solve both use cases.

WASHINGTON - Secretary of State Colin Powell held firm Friday on excluding Yasser Arafat from Mideast peacemaking and turning to other Palestinian leaders instead.
"There's a price to be paid for inaction against terrorism, inaction against reform," Powell said in an Associated Press interview.
Powell said he had had "the most direct conversations" with Arafat to try to sway him "but we've not seen change or improvement."
In fact, Powell said, an attempt to smuggle in Iranian weapons and evidence Arafat authorized payment to a group that carried out a suicide bombing against Israel had hardened the Bush administration's resolve to turn to other leaders.
"There are others in the Palestinian movement who can help transform it," Powell said.
While President Bush's call for Arafat's ouster as a condition for U.S. support for Palestinian statehood has not met with unanimous approval around the world, Powell said, "it is universally recognized" among Arab and other leaders that the current leadership of the Palestinian people has failed.
Looking ahead, Powell said the administration would focus on reform of Palestinian institutions.
"Clearly, we are anxious to work with responsible leaders in the Palestinian movement," he said, "and we are ready to mobilize the international community."
He spoke softly and evenly in a 15-minute conversation in a State Department conference room.
Powell did not single out any potential replacements for Arafat, and he said elections were up to the Palestinian people to conduct. "Hopefully, they will be free and fair and under international supervision," he said.
U.S. officials frequently mention four moderates as possible successors. They are Ahmed Qureia, the parliament speaker; Mahmoud Abbas, Arafat's deputy, and security chiefs Jibril Rajoub and Mohammed Dahlan.
Powell said Assistant Secretary of State William Burns would meet in London next week with U.N., European Union and Russian officials "and explore with them how to move forward."
Diplomatic officials said Burns might then go on to the Middle East for talks with Israeli and Arab leaders.

PREVIEWS: "Daredevil," "Uncanny X-Men," & More Marvel Comics On Sale August 3, 2016
Comic Books
Welcome to the four hundred and nineteenth in a series of examinations of comic book legends and whether they are true or false. Click here for an archive of the previous four hundred and eighteen. This week, did Marvel nearly put out a Spider-Man graphic novel in the 1980s where he romances a married mob wife? Plus, did Brian K. Vaughan offer a challenge involving a racy joke in a Batman comic? Finally, be sure to check out old Steve Ditko Spider-Man characters updated for the 1980s!
Let's begin!
NOTE: The column is on three pages, a page for each legend. There's a little "next" button on the top of the page and the bottom of the page to take you to the next page (and you can navigate between each page by just clicking on the little 1, 2 and 3 on the top and the bottom, as well).
COMIC LEGEND: Bob Layton wrote an unpublished Spider-Man graphic novel with Spidey romancing a mob wife.
STATUS: True
Sometime in the mid 1980s, Bob Layton began work on a Spider-Man graphic novel with an excellent art team (Paul Smith on pencils and Barry Windsor-Smith on inks) that was to be a major change in Spider-Man's life.
First of all, Layton was going to have Spider-Man get shot a number of times, making it the first time that Spider-Man had to recover from a major injury. Secondly, Spider-Man was going to be nursed back to health by the wife of a mob boss. The two of them would have an affair.
In the end, Spider-Man realizes he cannot continue their affair (after he saves her husband from a mob hit…a task he actually considers not doing).
However, either way, the graphic novel was to be a major turning point in the life of Spider-Man and would have been reflected in the pages of his monthly comic books.
The only problem was that with an art team like Paul Smith and Barry Windsor-Smith, you're not likely to get a timely release and the book ended up getting delayed so long that Marvel had a change in Editors-in-Chief from Jim Shooter to Tom DeFalco. DeFalco felt that the story was TOO big of a change in Spider-Man's status quo so he squelched the project.
Here are a few of Smith's penciled pages…
Check out Bob Layton's website here to read his full plot for the graphic novel.

On the next page, learn about a challenge involving Brian K. Vaughhan and a "juvenile" joke!
Oh, goodness….thanks for bringing up the now-13 year unresolved mystery of the Skeleton's identity. Every so often, I stumble across my copy of that Secret Files and wonder why DC would introduce something like that and NEVER do anything with it. (I had a vague notion that he might be Lucius Fox because he said he knew Bruce Wayne, but other than that, no idea.)
Maybe if they ever do another Spider-Man/Batman crossover, the villains can be the Skeleton and F.A.C.A.D.E.
Niton is another name for Radon. Clever.
With the New 52 and all that confusion, does that story even count anymore? If it does, why not make it Bruce's secret long lost brother, who I think was recently introduced, but know nothing more about?
@Adam: My theory is that F.A.C.A.D.E. is actually a reborn Ned Leeds. He has the connections to Lance Bannon and Betty Brant, being a co-worker of the former and the ex-husband of the latter. He has supervillain experience as the Hobgoblin (I'm not even attempting to claim which number he was). Leeds was blonde-ish, but he could be dyeing his hair or the dark hair could have been because of the coloring. Plus, the unreveal of his identity in "Dark Reign Files" was in a file created for Norman Osborn's perusal, and Osborn would want to know about the status of previous Goblins.
If such a resurrection seems implausible, keep in mind that at the time the F.A.C.A.D.E. story was being written, they were bringing back the Jackal, the Spider-Clone, Norman Osborn and Aunt May, so Ned Leeds wouldn't be too weird of a comeback.
The Bob Layton book looked to be highly impressive.
Yeah, it looks like it would really have been quite good.
That Spiderman GN….with the team of Paul Smith and Barry Windsor-Smith with what sounds like a great story.
Would have bought that in a heartbeat.
If the "Avengers: Endless Wartime" OGN does well, maybe they could release the Layton/Smith/Windsor-Smith book under that line?
Man that MArcos Martin artwork looks positively Byrne-like.
Niton ain't no element I ever heard of.
@noob: Niton is more commonly today known as "radon."
Paul Smith's work on that Spider-Man story looks excellent.
Ironic that they call the changes from the Spidey story TOO extreme in the light of Superior Spiderman.
Bruce Wayne's secret long lost brother? Don't tell me they've brought back Thomas Wayne, Jr. a.k.a. The Boomerang Killer, from Bob Haney's World's Finest run!
It's been a while since I've read Vaughan's Batman, but I always favored the idea of Bruce Wayne's neighbor J. Devlin Davenport as a likely suspect for the Skeleton's real identity. He had a few appearances in some late 90s Batman stories where he was somewhat of an antagonist for Bruce at Gotham social functions and had a small role in the "Aftershocks" story-arc. I think Vaughan may have been the first to re-introduce Davenport back into the Bat-cast after the end of "No Man's Land", but I don't remember him doing anything memorable with him.
Cei-U, in the Court of Owls plotline one of the Talons (enforcers for the owls) claims that he's really Bruce's brother, raised in an orphanage (I forget if it was illegitimate pregnancy or what that explained that) and therefore pissed as hell that Bruce got to grow up pampered and rich while he lived in a hellhole. So after murdering the Court, he attacks Bruce and apparently dies in a big explosion (yes, I know). Alfred researches the issue and concludes it could be true, but short of getting a DNA sample, there's no way to know for sure.
So not the same as the mentally handicapped Thomas Wayne, but not that far off.
The place he claims to be from is Wildwood Asylum, which was the asylum where the Bob Haney version was held.
Thomas Wayne Jr. had sort of returned even before then, of course, as the secret identity of the antimatter Earth version of Owlman created by Grant Morrison over in JLA: Earth-2.
Also, as I recall, the Talons' gimmick as that they were all people who were supposed to have died. Thomas Jr. apparently died when Martha was in a car crash, but had in fact been spirited away by the Court of Owls. It wasn't an illegitimate pregnancy, but rather a "lost" baby that the Waynes had deliberately tried to move on from.
So wait… what WAS the change in status quo that the Spidey GN was to have brought on? I assume it's not the affair, because that could just have been safely ignored in the main books (as many graphic novel and one-shot stories are.) Same for the shooting. Was the mob wife to have become a recurring character? Would have had mob connections?
Maybe I'm missing something.
Peter married Mary Jane just before Shooter left and DeFalco became editor-in-chief. (I can't remember for sure, but the actual wedding issue might've been the very month of the change. It was very close, I know that for sure. But there had been a few issues leading up to the wedding, so obviously, the decision to have the marriage occured before the change in leadership.) If the romance was too important to cut from the story (and it sounds like that was probably the case), then they really had no choice but to cancel the graphic novel by the time DeFalco took over.
How does payment work at Marvel et al. when a project is cancelled? Does everybody get paid for the amount of work done? That would be a pain for people farther down the production schedule. The writer would probably have done a full plot or script & been paid, the penciller may have a certain number of pages done, but the inker, letterer, etc. may have turned down other work. Is everybody just SOL? Does it change if the project is junked by the publisher instead of a creator backing out? Anybody know?
I just want to say the Marvel Tales was pretty funny. For a few seconds I thought it was from a European reprint.
Wow, Paul Smith's art looks amaaaaazing. I wish we could have more "Leave it to Chance" stories by him and James Robinson, that was great stuff. Anyone else share that opinion?
Captain Haddock, you're not alone, brother. Couldn't agree more.

I believe everyone got paid as if the work had been completed. DeFalco took care of them.
It is true that the Spider-Man marriage made the story REALLY not work, but I think even besides that, the idea of Spider-Man carrying on an affair with a married woman was probably a bit much, as well. Also, the idea of Spider-Man getting shot nine times was a BIG deal and perhaps it didn't really fit in with the title at the time. Also, I think Layton was going for an R-Rated feel for the book, and Marvel has been very hesitant to ever do an R-Rated Spider-Man story. In other words, while I can't exactly pinpoint the precise reason DeFalco turned it down, there were PLENTY of reasons to turn it down. It was a bold experiment by Layton.
Daaaaamn, I had completely forgotten the Skeleton! Pretty cool introductory story, then NOTHING. Wonder how long it'll be before someone dusts him off and does something with him? It's only a matter of time; every character, no matter how obscure, gets revisited eventually.
The funny thing is with the mob story, is that whatever problems Marvel might have had with it in the past (i.e. An R-rated Spidey story, Spidey/Peter Parker sleeping around, Peter Parker/SPidey getting involved in organized crime etc) is that current Marvel has none of those hangups now.
Marvel still does not allow R-Rated Spider-Man stories. That's their proverbial "line in the sand." Note that there has not yet been a Spider-Man MAX. And Spider-Man has not slept with a married woman in the last thirty years, either.
I haven't read it, but wasn't Spider-Man: Reign…close… to an "R-rating"? Even without the spiderdong?
The penis in Reign #1 was an error. Reign was supposed to be (and was labeled as) T+, same as a typical current issue of Amazing Spider-Man. In fact, off the top of my head, I dunno if Marvel MAKES a mainstream superhero comic that isn't T+ these days.
Ah. For some reason I remembered hearing that it was a little…"more" than some Spidey stories, even sans wang.
What a cool life you have, huh, that you can type the sentence "the penis was an error"? Fun!
Ah, so there at last is a Spider-Man story that could not be told with a married Spidey, but could with a single one…
I agree with Brian- there had to be other reasons than Peter's marriage to MJ to cancel the story. They could have just included a footnote, "This takes place before Peter proposed to MJ". The only other major continuity reference in Layton's synopsis was that Peter knew Ben Urich at this point and there were several periods after Peter met Ben Urich and before Peter proposed to MJ when Peter wasn't dating anyone.
Capt Haddock, first off, love the name. I am a HUGE Tintin fan from waaay back. I second your opinion of the Chance book. Pretty cool writing, fantastic Paul Smith art. Would make a great tv series. Been a Smith fan since his Howard the Duck story in Bizarre Adventures 34 ( the one with the skeleton in the Santa suit). Am I mistaken that Paul Smith did a Spidey mini in the 90s when Marvel was releasing a lot of them? (I remember "Hobgoblin Lives" and a Mysterio mini. Can anyone tell me if my memory is faulty? At any rate, that Smith Spidey art is just great!
My personal guess is that Peter having an affair with a married woman was the tipping point for someone (I must admit I'd be a little uncomfortable with it).
Didn't PP sort of fool around with Betty Brant while Ned was in Europe during Wolfman's run?
Yeah, but that was in the 1970s. Standards were different. For instance, Spider-Man said "Hell" in the 1970s, which wasn't allowed in the 1990s.
It's kind of weird that he challenged people to find the joke he very clearly spelled out in the narration.
I can't imagine Peter even considering letting someone die – not even a mob boss, or the husband of the woman he's schtupping.
Writers had different views about that. In Michelinie's run, at one point Peter seemed to consider accepting money from the Red Skull to look the other way while the Skull started a war between two countries. Admittedly, it was only for a few seconds but still…
I can't imagine Peter even considering letting someone die – not even a mob boss, or the husband of the woman he's schtupping.
I can definitely see him considering it under certain circumstances, like the DeFalco issue where he learns that the Kingpin is about to be killed. Peter has to at least CONSIDER just looking the other way, ya know? If it was an easy decision, then it wouldn't be as heroic for him to end up choosing to still defend the Kingpin from the attack.
Actually J. Devlin Davenport was going to be revealed as the pirate villain Captain Fear who was seen in a few of Dixon's Detective Comics issues.
For some reason (I think it was because Dixon had left the title at the time) we never saw this who the good old Captain was.
Aww Paul Smith is so good, wish we could've seen that! The Shooter era has a lot going for it when compared to the eras that followed it. But I think it picked up again with Jemas, Quesada, Alonso et al in the modern day. I'm just not a fan of 90:s comics.

I was browsing some car pictures on the Internet when I came across the base image of this piece. I made it into something you might not see a Ferrari every day (or every year!).

Shut up an take my money, where do I get one.
How many ways to abuse the speakers... too many fun ways to annoy and shake. if this was real I would save up the 30 years of paychecks to get it.
Better start saving up and build it yourself.
Yeh. saving for 30 maybe 40 years ain't so bad right? At the end I will have a nice car and lots of music to blast!
how did you get the boot to open in half .. cuz thats not a usual feature on a ferrari but that could just photoshopped...is it?.... why am i qustioning this ....lolz this badazz work weather its photoshopped or not.....ps i still wanna know...
It's very much photoshopped.
figured as though..... that would be a badass mod if it were real
Sure would. Judging by what I've read in the comments when this image has been shared around the internet it definitely divides people. Most people either love it or just downright hate it and scream "why would anyone do that to a Ferrari". Personally I find it hilarious.
Thanks for your comments!
Thanks for your comments!
this is amazing what a transformation, love the colour too its just perfect !
it´´s an absolutely great hifi ferrari! xD I really never seen such a beast of a customized one. very good ideas and work on it. RESPECT!

Why would you weaken a Ferrari like that?
Weakened? Nah, just different. I wanted to see what it would look like as a full-on show car, something Ferraris aren't usually seen.
love it man, pure genius....
what an awesome concept! if only they had the ferrari be yellow or red it would have made the car also like lak9 said a little c/f
Oh Fuuuck yeah

Terrific Concept ^_^

Coppélia is a light-hearted comedy complete with mistaken identities, a little magic, and a doll that springs to life! Léo Delibes' score, called by The New York Times, "a classic of melody, orchestration, rhythm, and storytelling," is at once lively and accessible. With more than 20 children from Boston Ballet School, Coppélia remains a jubilant and engaging classic for the whole family.

Released: Mar 01st, 1999
Running Time: 88
Director: Duck Dumont
Company: RedBoard Video
Cast: Troy Reed, Melissa Monet, Mila (I), Christi Mairs, Rosey Cheeks, Honey Halls, Jamie Gillis, Maribel (I), Thomas Sterling
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Specialty
Don\'t let the unflattering picture of Mairs on the box discourage you; she more attractive than the shot indicates.
If there's one session here that threatens to crush the others with its big, black, dirty jackboot, it's the one where Jamie Gillis plies his grizzled pervy trade on pale, fresh-faced Christi Mairs. Jamie beats her with a belt, spits in her face, and generally just degrades and abuses the fuck out of her. "Yes, I know; I know..." he croons oh-so-sympathetically at one point, before smacking her hard across the face. Classic. Christi's pained sighs and moans are as genuine and wondrous as the majestic hard-on tenting Jamie's pants; it's a beautiful thing.
Melissa Monet's domination of sassy slave Mila is pretty good; Honey Halls' pathetic sobs when she gets her nipples twisted and her ass whacked by Thomas Sterling are worthy of note.

Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
Capitol Hill Critics Second-Guess Agencies Using...
Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Firm aims to apply for six-month patent extension to existing SPC in relevant European countries.
The European regulatory authorities have approved a chewable formulation of Pfizer's Lipitor for the treatment of familial hypercholesterolemia in children aged 10-17 years. The pediatric indication has also been sanctioned for the currently available tablet form of Lipitor. Approval of the drug for this younger patient population is based on data from a pediatric investigation plan Pfizer filed with the European Medicines Agency in November 2009.
The firm says the EU has created a number of incentives to help persuade companies to invest in clinical development of drugs for use in children. These incentives include the potential to prolong patent life by another six months by applying for an extension to an existing supplementary protection certificate (SPC). Pfizer confirmed it plans to apply for the six-month patent extension in European countries where it has an SPC.
Lipitor has been approved in the U.S. for treating heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia in children aged 10-17 years since 2002.

MDMA (commonly known as the empathogen "ecstasy") is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, which is reserved for compounds with no accepted medical use and a high abuse potential. Two researchers from Stanford, however, call for a rigorous scientific exploration of MDMA's effects to identify precisely how the drug works, the data from which could be used to develop therapeutic compounds.Do you agree that ecstasy should be studied for its potential therapeutic benefits?

Most of the admin pages for this plugin are blank for me. The regular dashboard elements are there: header, sidebar and footer, but in the area where you'd expect to see configuration settings, there is nothing.
This happens on every page except for Constant Contact and Registration & Profile. There's no error message anywhere, except for the Form Designer, which says: "The Constant Contact API plugin must be configured properly before using the Form Generator."
I have already entered my login on the Constant Contact page, and at the top, it tells me: "Your username and password seem to be working."

text: Posted April 15, 2012 Yes. Planned Parenthood is a liberal/weft ling organization created for no purpose at all. Medicaid already covers birth control and within some states abortions. Organization is useless with many others the gov't has created and does nothing but waste money on useless spending. Need i say more? I see, you know about as much about Planned Parenthood as I thought you did. You seem like someone who would be a major proponent of contraception & sex ed. Is that a correct assessment?

So I have already made a partition of 100 GB in windows but when I loaded ubuntu 13.10 from a usb stick and tried installing it ubuntu didn't give me the option of installing along side windows. When I clicked something else and then clicked on 100 GB free disk space it still wouldn't let me. This is the first time for me to install a new OS so simple anwers would be the best.
100 GB partition created on Windows should not be an ext4 partition,so you can't install Ubuntu on it.
Try to format the 100 GB partition into ext4 filesystem.To do this,
Note:Make sure that the 100 GB partition is unmounted.

The community revel featured a day of special attractions and amusements along East 37th Street, between Avenue R and Fillmore Avenue, where fun was the good word and a cornucopia of simple pleasures were on the menu.
Party games, sporting tourneys and potluck barbecues capped the merriment.

The first photos have emerged of January Jones as Emma Frost on the Pinewood Studios set of X-Men: First Class, Matthew Vaughn's swinging '60s reboot of the Fox franchise. (Yes, I know that some insist it's a prequel, but I don't buy it.) You can go here and here to see more images on Jones in her all-white ensemble.
First Class, which began filming last week in England, centers on the early friendship between Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr, who work with other mutants to stop a global threat. In the process, a rift between them opens, beginning the war between Magneto's Brotherhood and Professor X's X-Men. It's set for release on June 3, 2011.
The film so far stars: James McAvoy as Charles Xavier; Michael Fassbender as Erik Lensherr; Kevin Bacon as Sebastian Shaw; January Jones as Emma Frost; Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique; Nicholas Hoult as Henry McCoy/Beast; Caleb Landry Jones as Sean Cassidy/Banshee; Lucas Till as Alex Summers; Edi Gathegi as Darwin; Jason Flemyng as Azazel; Rose Byrne as Moira MacTaggart; Zoe Kravitz as Angel Salvadore; Bill Milner as young Erik Lensherr; and Morgan Lily as young Raven Darkholme/Mystique.
That's a whole lotta hat!
Forget the hat!!!! That's too much costume, she should be showing alot more skin than that (ie. Morrison's Frost version). ;-)
That hat makes her look like the Russian royal family, tsarina — I think.
i like this costume. gives me a lot more hope for the film; remember, it's set in the 1960s. "Doctor Zhivago" was released in 1965, and had quite a large effect on fashions of the time. so this makes it seem like at least somebody is trying for a proper period feel, rather than dropping modern spandex suits into the picture.
I am a huge Emma Frost fan and though this isn't an A+ costume to me, just getting to see Emma on the big screen in a real depiction is awesome.
Even for a movie set in the 60s, she should be showing more skin.
Wouldn't this as a prequel make Cyclops pretty old?
