I'm still a tamer. I have my pride!

Sneaks in- Just going to drop this off... *sneaks out*
Human Name:
Kaya Alabast
Mutant Name:
Syr (pronounced See-er)
98 lbs
Attractive is not the word you would think of to describe Kaya right away, if she were left to her own devices. Of course you would have to see her first. But when you do see her, she is very... I suppose filthy would be the right word. Small and always looking at the ground, matted auburn hair falling over her face to the point where you can't even see her eyes, she is a very disgusting individual from a distance. She knows this, Kaya likes this. She hopes it will get people to leave her alone.
Unfortunately these days she cannot take this above appearance, except once in a great while. Her hair was forced to be brushed until it gleamed, but it still rests over her face rather blindly on one side. It would take a lot of skill to notice the glimmering green eyes that hold more caution than curiosity. Peek-a-bangs indeed.
Kaya has a cute figure when she bothers to show it. Well, almost. Her left hand is permanently disfigured and mutilated, almost to match the bites like human teeth and the gouging of nails that eventually stopped going away. Her wrists and ankles show signs of handcuffs chafing her skin and there is a permanent limp in her petite step. Small and even now, still underweight, she cannot shake her roots of the place she lived, no matter how much people scrub off the dirt, no matter how much the girl attempts a smile. Don't even get her started on the bandages on her neck either.
Now that she has clothes that do come close to fitting her, she is very often seen in them. However, the ones she came home in still have an odd place in her heart, so secretly packed away from her is the revealing dress she had been in, resewn into a pillow by her father. Kaya instead, wears a hunter green, frilly sleeved shirt, revealing more of her arms and her breasts than she desires. Her legs are notably hidden by long dirt-brown pants that are almost like jeans. She wishes her arms could be covered more but the feeling of her arms being bare is something she is much too used to.
An adamant flower with blue petals rests upon the center of her collarbone, a lotus. It is a brooch, held there by a violet fabric clasped in the back. It is good luck charm, an expensive one.
Depending on her feelings at the time of using her powers, she tends to wear a relatively soft outfit. A Valkyrie in form, at least in part, she stands as a young woman, almost as she is supposed to. Confident, warm, almost able to take charge over the situation, her auburn hair is brushed out of her face and tied into a braid. Kaya even stands a little taller, dressed in a pure white sleeveless robe tied with golden thread that falls down to her ankles. Her feet are remarkably bare, as though she is now suddenly too cool for shoes. Over her arms is a cloak of feathers. She also has a pouch of silver darts wrapped around her waist. When she is afraid, the power tends to crackle, like she's burning wood and her eyes have a tendency of turning orange. Otherwise, it is relatively calm. Of course, if she could help it, her mutation wouldn't be used at all.
It's not easy to forget what you are. The fairy tale prince ending doesn't exist; there is no happily ever after that comes out all right. You have to heal slowly, or hope to do it. But sometimes you don't. And the shadow lingers like a bruise on your brain.
Kaya knows this very well.
Timid and obedient, Kaya Alabast is frequently forgotten and left to waste away on her own. This is what she wants. If she is noticed, the hands will roam and she will likely fall into a panic attack. She was supposed to be a Valkyrie, but instead, she is too meek, too willing to follow the crowd. She is expecting fondling, assault in a safe environment and the mere concept of this event sends her into terrors at the simple tap on the shoulder. It's rather painful to watch at times, but if she's aware of the pity sent her way, she will not speak of it. Pain and pleasure have mixed rather thickly in her mind and pity is rather misinterpreted. She is very sensitive to the emotions people have; but she doesn't have any idea what they mean.
In truth Kaya doesn't speak at all really. No one has heard it except her father and even then it is reportedly a whisper. Most of the time, if you catch her attention, she'll write on a white board and hide her face behind it. Even if she did talk, it'd be to the floor. However, it isn't because she's quiet that she's intelligent. It's because books are her new escape. And a part of her is still in deep shock, uncertain of how real this is and how she is supposed to behave. She can't even do social mannerisms properly for the most part. Eye contact? Nope. Speaking properly and not at the floor? Nope. Shaking hands. Certainly nope.
When she finally opens up to someone Kaya becomes rather dependent on their company. She won't say much and you may forget she's there... but she may be found following you like a lost puppy, just listening or working. It happened to her father... but it will likely take a long time for her to do such a thing in this new environment, particularly with over-familiarity likely to occur.
Kaya has quite a bit of despair in her, believing this really isn't happening and she's just trying to comfort herself over the real suffering. This makes her inwardly spiteful and her thoughts can frequently be dark and icy. In reality seeing another in pain gives her a pulse of pleasure and a desire for people to have more of it and enjoy it. It's not simply out of anger, but because it's been very hard for her to tell the clear difference between her suffering and their enjoyment. So for all she knows that's giving them what they want, making it worse. This sort of heartless person, so quickly spiteful and cruel, is practically another part of herself, the part that was able to give what was wanted and needed. Though indistinct, selfish, even rather naive and foolish, this is Syr. And she is not happy to be here. Syr is also talkative, chatty and general out-and-out annoying.
However, as her kindness has been blossoming, unknowingly tended by her father's care, Kaya also struggles to be brave enough to speak and smile again, genuine smiles. She does make the effort to smile at servants and help in silence. As she grows more comfortable, doing this will likely become more second nature and normal. She doesn't mind assisting others... as long as she doesn't have to touch them. She's even been able to cry at dying puppies. She has a severe, contradictory hatred of her mutation, even though her father and fellows at her home feel no shame in it. She hates it for multiple reasons; its untimely appearance, the danger of it, and that it requires a type of thing that she simply cannot do yet.
Not everyone has a wonderful start, but everyone certainly has to try and make the best of it. Kaya knows this. However, understanding and doing is easier said than done.
Kaya Alabast was born in London, the pregnancy difficult and also not taking place in a hospital. It was a young woman, a high schooler to be precise. She had made more than quite a few mistakes and one of those was not contacting the father. Though... she didn't have a phone. A... worker at a prostitute agency (to keep this polite) struck a deal with the young, impressionable teenager. We pay for your hospital trip; you give up the child. Rather not wanting to die, the young teen agreed to this, not entirely sure of the deal she had just struck and what would happen to her newborn daughter. She was happy someone would be able to provide for her though and even more pleased that they would both likely live through this.
She was rather off... wasn't she?
There was little use for a baby in a prostitute agency in truth. However, this man was clever. He had a messenger in that little girl and someone to brainwash into the arts of pleasure and money-making while doing it, even teaching her how to read and write. Though a little girl was not much pleasure for any normal person, that didn't mean those kinds of people did not exist. And even though Kaya didn't entirely grasp the situation, she was well aware of the wrongness of it as well. Because the touches and words continued to vary and swirl in her mind, it leaded to her simply shutting down and obeying, fearful of what would happen otherwise. Punishments were not very kindly done. One of these had actually torn apart her left hand, it unable to heal properly. Then again, was pleasure not the same, bruises that sang of desire? Because of this, her mutation, which could have manifested sooner, was held back and rightly so. She could have killed someone. Or a lot of someones.
It was at the age of ten that everything changed. Then twenty-five-year-old James Alabast, father to young Kaya, who had until that moment had gone by Caron, something that the worker had found endearing, stormed the place, for lack of a better term. He had found her existence out from her mother, who had long since left the country. Guilty for not knowing and possibly considering such a thing happening, he hunted down his daughter to try and repair what damage he could. In truth, as he would admit to her later, he had wanted children but he didn't know it would be... quite so young as this. Since Kaya had been sleeping in her tiny cot at the time before being whisked out to her own family, the first thought in the little girl's mind was that she was being kidnapped and her boss would not get his pay.
Over the long drive back to the house they would live in, James spoke quietly and explained this all to her. She expected something horrible to happen o her during this. However, he did not go near her or reach out to her barring to carry her inside and examine her health. And even then, his fingers only ghosted over her. To anyone else, this would have been a sign of dislike. But to Kaya, it was respect and perhaps that made him endear to her. So did the name Kaya, the first thing she could honestly claim was hers.
That isn't to say the first year or so wasn't awkward and that it still isn't now. Oh no, they had quite a lot of trouble with each other due to Kaya's constant fear of the associate worker waking her for a job she was harmed by. Also, James was struggling to understand how to work with such a different child than his imagination. Kaya did not have the fear that he did not love her like other children would. She had no idea what the word meant. However, when James did take the risk of hugging her, she did realize that he was a safe person and to be safe around someone meant so much more. What also helped was that, due to his high status, he could afford to buy many books and materials and homeschool her. It rather amused the servants, who remembered the irresponsible brat who skipped school and stole from candy shops. Perhaps this was what allowed them to adore little Kaya, who soaked up information like a sponge. He taught and she learned and slowly Jamie began to make a girl out of a street rat. The therapist did help, even though Kaya barely spoke to her.
It is unfortunate, but this life was not magically sunshine and rainbows afterward. Her mutation, which had been unintentionally held back by fear, decided to show itself during a walk in the garden. She had been frightened off by a group of her father's fellow businessmen, and while he was looking for her, she managed to get herself caught in a rosebush. Panic mounting, James heard her screaming bloody murder and found her still caught in the thorny vines and bleeding. Wherever her hands scrabbled however, the plants died and weakened their grip, and small cuts from the thorns were quickly healing. Finally managing to get her free, he found his daughter unharmed aside from her clothing, and a prized rosebush rotting in the dirt. Unfortunately Kaya was not even close to calm. Syr, who had been completely disinterested in the goings on, was suddenly aroused, and was trying to peek her head out.James managed to calm her, and with some reluctance, sent a letter to Professor Xavier. He had not quite wanted to, because he didn't really trust his daughter in a dangerous setting like that after only a few years. He knew he was lucky she trusted him.
However, he did respond and promptly informed the father that his daughter could possibly be healed as thoroughly there as here, but if her mutation went out of control again, rumors might spread. Mutants were not exactly the most wonderful existence in Europe either.
Cell Waver
- she is able to soothe the pain of others by taking it into herself, almost to the point where they forget it exists. The sense of peaceful warmth ensures the rest of her ability, the restoration of cells and energy in a person, sometimes to extent of searing a wound closed. In return, her body opens up the wounds and is yet too weak and uncontrolled to do little more than cuts and bruises or plants. Living cells are her limit. She can't make a pencil tap dance.
Related to the deeply set sadism in her, she can makes someone feel all of the pain she has felt with a simple touch. This also makes it very easy for her to turn her power from revive cells to destroying them and taking the energy for herself. However, both of these require physical contact with living creatures and Kaya simply does not have the emotional willpower to do that. The ability is limited to around her hands unless extremely emotional, and even then, it usually knocks her unconscious. Very unhelpful. Not that Syr is much better.
Writing Sample:
Planes were new. They were very new. They were also bigger than her, shinier, and certainly reflective.
Kaya had read a lot about planes. Heroes in books seemed to favor them, or simply favor flight in general. Kaya wondered why. James had not been able to answer the one time she had murmured loud enough to hear. He had laughed actually, carefree, rather embarrassed laughter. She still wondered how the sound could be quite like that.
There was a snore from next to her ear and a grunt. Kaya almost jumped and then saw the pale, sleeping face of her father. Or the man who called himself her father. What the difference may have been she couldn't tell herself. He had been anxious since that letter had come in the mail only days before. She had not read it of course, rule thirteen in the how-to-survive-boss handbook (coined by her fellows and unforgettable) was never read the mail without express permission from the writer. At any rate, if it made kind, passive James unhappy, then it was something to be cautious of. The servants all said that, and Kaya always listened to the servants. They were smarter than she about such matters.
If Mr. James was so agitated, could it be about the plane? Could it be about the place they had to go to? She hoped it would have lots of flowers. Only a few days ago, she had discovered peonies in a secret part of the house and spent hours trying to draw them. She had failed, naturally. Kaya had neither been encouraged nor discouraged by this failure. She had simply tried again after her free hand had stopped hurting. She still was horrible at writing with her non dominant hand. Kaya would manage. She had to. James couldn't talk for her all the time. He certainly wanted to.
Her gaze, half-hidden, traveled out to view the window of the plane. It was so vibrant, full of greens and reds and many colors of flowers and cars. They had to be going to a strange place then, one much like London. So it would be noisy... and painful... and full of people.
Kaya cringed in her seat. Like an unspoken cue, her father's thumb stroked the top of her mangled hand. She almost cringed again, wishing to hide her face in auburn curls. James yawned in her face, making her jump. Some of the girls had always done that, except it was on her ear. He blinked his green eyes at her like an owl and smiled. It was strained and seemed to cause him pain.
"Mr. James?" she uttered softly. "Do you... not want to do this?" Whatever this may have been.
He blinked. The man had not expected it clearly. Then he shook his head, thumb continuing to lazily circle the bones under her scarred knuckles. "Afraid not. I finally found you Kaya. Just because the world hates mutations and difference-" He saw her flinch as realization hit her. "Doesn't mean I do. However," James let out an unhappy sigh. "I want to keep you safe... from the world and you." Kaya blinked. Those phrases were new. "And that means you have to learn what you can do. Or what you could do." She nodded slowly. Kaya did not understand, but a lump formed in the pit of her stomach as the plane began to descend.
So she was going to a school far away from James... and London... and... what she knew.
"Professor Xavier," her father began softly. "Is a good man. He has strong, kind ideals, and a bit too much honor. It has kept those with the X-Gene safe all these years, so it counts for something. You will be fine. I'll write. Gosh knows you can't answer a phone."
A small giggle escaped Kaya's lips as the runway grew wider in her sight. She could be scared; she already was, but there was an alien sort of pleasure in knowing Mr. James was unhappy too.
Perhaps it was comfort.
"Perhaps I misjudged you after all."

Palestinian NGOs in Israel reject the "Sectarian Representation Law": "We hold on to our Arab Palestinian Identity"
We, the Palestinian civil society organizations in Israel, absolutely reject the new law enacted by the Knesset on 24 February 2014, which replaces Arab representation on a public advisory board of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission with sectarian representation. This new law is a dangerous attempt by the state to distort the Arab identity of Palestinians in Israel. Despite its actual marginal impact, racist motives underlie this law and foreshadow the enactment of more racist bills and policies, which we will oppose.

EXCLUSIVE: Deadpool Dons the Venom Symbiote in "Back In Black" #1 First Look
Comic Books
Last week I wrote about Earth 2 in the context of its Supermen. The most recent issue, Earth 2 #26, brought some closure to the Apokolips-invasion plot and subplots, and this week's Worlds' Finest #26 does much the same for its displaced heroines. The September issues of both series will jump forward five years to tie into Futures End, and October brings the Earth 2: World's End weekly miniseries.
Therefore, as these were the last couple of issues before everything will no doubt start to change, I want to talk this week about Earth-2's unique place in the New 52's multiverse, and what it might say about DC's approach to legacy characters.
* * *
Of course, the original Earth-Two was central to the legacy structure in the eras of both the infinite Multiverse and the singular DC-Earth. To be sure, when the Multiverse was around, the various Flashes, Supermen, Wonder Women, etc., weren't legacies per se, but counterparts, with the originals on Earth-Two and the "modern" versions on Earth-One. However, eventually there were legacies on both Earths. In the 1970s, Power Girl and Huntress were introduced as the successors of the Earth-Two Superman and Batman (and in Huntress' case, Catwoman as well). In the '80s, they went from the Justice Society to Infinity Inc., a team of newly minted legacy heroes. Meanwhile, on Earth-One, Dick Grayson assumed the new identity of Nightwing (ganked from a Kryptonian caped crusader, something I'm surprised Grant Morrison hasn't made more of) after passing along the Robin name and costume to Jason Todd.
Naturally, the legacy structure really took hold after the various parallel universes were consolidated. That provided an in-story justification for characters who passed along their heroic identities from generation to generation, like the various Flashes, Hawkmen (yes, I know) and Starmen. However, it didn't change the fact that the Golden Age versions took back seats to their successors. After 1956, Jay Garrick was never simply "the" Flash the way that Barry Allen and Wally West were. Eventually, Alan Scott stopped being (the Golden Age) Green Lantern and started calling himself Sentinel.
With that in mind, having entirely new versions of these characters on the New 52 Earth-2 comes with a tradeoff. Jay and Alan no longer have the foundation (or the weight, if you will) of all those stories; but neither are they seen as subordinate and/or ancillary to Barry or the Green Lantern Corps. The New 52 Earth-2 has also inverted the old unspoken DC-Earth legacy rule that prohibited Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman from passing along their code names and costumes permanently. Today the deceased Earth-2 versions each have at least one successor: Huntress, Batman II, Power Girl, Val-Zod, and Fury.
In short, between its appropriation of various Golden Age trappings and its relative isolation from the main DC-Earth (which I think Morrison is still calling "Universe Designate Zero"), the New 52 Earth-2 is set up pretty well to grow some distinctly different versions of familiar DC folk. Even its Power Girl, Mister Terrific, and Huntress have backstories which set them apart from their Earth-Two predecessors. Granted, for the past year or so Earth-2 has been preoccupied with the second Apokolips invasion, and it's about to get wrecked in yet another interdimensional war, but it still has potential.
* * *
Speaking of backstories, it seems to me that readers come to the Golden Age characters in a few different ways. The original readership (1940s kids) are at least in their 80s now; but I'm guessing they are a very small part of today's comics-reading population. Subsequent generations would likely have been able to compare the Golden Agers with their counterparts in the Silver Age and beyond. Indeed, folks who were only introduced to the Golden Agers in the context of the legacy structure may well see them more as points on a continuum.
In fact, until the New 52 came along, the Golden Age characters were almost artifacts — not quite anachronisms, and certainly not obsolete, but tied to a well-defined period in DC history. It's a variation on the "Gwen Stacy Problem," which is what I call defining a character by a particular milestone. For longstanding legacy characters, their transition from one identity to the next is their version of the GSP. The New 52 now has its Wally West, and the expectation is that he'll become the Flash at some point.
With the Golden Agers, though, it's not so much a matter of expectation as of implication. When a Golden Ager appeared in a post-Silver Age story, it was implicitly the same character — or close enough — who appeared in those Golden Age comics. That allowed creative teams to build on those comics, and it provided an entry point for readers curious about the characters' histories, but like any continuity-based story, it involved a learning curve.
By jettisoning all that, the New 52 Earth 2 and Worlds' Finest set up a different set of hurdles. Writers James Robinson, Paul Levitz, and Tom Taylor, and artists including Nicola Scott, George Pérez, Kevin Maguire, R.B. Silva and Scott McDaniel had to convince readers that the story of an alternate Earth was worth their time. This was both a return to the original Earth-Two concept and a reversal of decades of shared-universe structure. On the original Earth-Two, the original versions of Superman and Batman appeared in the late '30s, married their old flames in the '50s, and came out of retirement in the late '60s and early '70s. Many of their colleagues followed the same basic path. However, when everything was consolidated into a single Earth, these original versions were put aside in favor of their present-day counterparts. It wasn't a huge deal (although there were some bumps, particularly with Power Girl's revised origin), since plenty of non-duplicative Golden Agers survived the transition.
The New 52 Earth-2 kept the idea of an older Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. Their careers didn't go back to FDR, but they were each old enough to have adult children. However, it then made the new crop of "wonders" part of the second generation of Earth-2 superheroes. (Come to think of it, that's almost like a condensed version of the Legion of Super-Heroes being inspired by Superboy.) In that respect, Earth 2 and Worlds' Finest asked not just "what if the JSA started today?" but "what happens to the superheroes after the Big Three are killed?" Earth-2's characters are grounded — both directly and indirectly — in relation to DC's Trinity, but not in a way that invites constant comparisons to the main-line New 52 Trinity. All this means that Earth-2's characters have to stand on their own merits, not as continuations of their Golden Age selves, and not necessarily in comparison to any of their successors.
* * *
That, in turn, leads us to one of the more fascinating corners of this whole affair: the treatment of the Huntress. Reintroduced in a six-issue miniseries not long into the overall New 52 relaunch, it was revealed in the last few pages of issue #6 that she was Earth-2's Helena Wayne, not the Helena Bertinelli character readers had come to know in the pages of Birds of Prey. This produced some strong reactions from fans who (like fans of Wally West) were fond of the more recent version. This is perfectly understandable. Helena Bertinelli was created in the late 1980s as a way to bring back the erased-from-existence Helena Wayne. After her short-lived ongoing series ended, she bounced around the Bat-books for a few years until BOP gave her more regular exposure. The rest is history. With her appearances on Justice League Unlimited and Arrow, she's had multimedia success as well. However, in the New 52 she's out of costume and in a significantly different role, as Dick Grayson's Spyral handler in Grayson.
This raises all sorts of issues about reader expectations. After all, no one expects Dick to stay a spy for any extended period of time, and it's only a little less likely that DC would give a well-liked character like Helena Bertinelli such a radical makeover. The new Worlds' Finest clears the way for a new Power Girl of Universe Designate Zero; and assuming Helena Wayne makes it through the upcoming calamities, there could well be two distinct Huntresses on two different Earths.
Otherwise, you get into the old "why use that name?" argument. Why call new characters Helena Bertinelli or Wally West if you're not planning on giving them their traditional roles? These don't necessarily have to do with costumes or codenames. Originally, Helena came from a mob family and vowed revenge on organized crime, while Wally was the president of his local Flash fan club and didn't know his aunt was dating his hero. (She didn't know either, at the time.) We might therefore say that the characters themselves have particular qualities which would keep them out of costume for a while.
Still, I suspect it takes a lot to tamp down those expectations. DC has teased Ray Palmer's Atom career for almost three years now, giving him size-changing technology and a blue-and-red jumpsuit but (as far as I know) without ever calling him "the Atom." I suppose the point of the New 52 Huntress miniseries was a similar sort of extended tease, with the hope that readers would be more intrigued by the idea of "Batman's daughter" than the Huntress who'd been around for the past twenty years. Honestly, I'm not sure how well either Helena has done with readers. (Gail Simone seems to have made Ms. Wayne an honorary Bird of Prey by including her in this last Batgirl arc.) Having Worlds' Finest change formats to flashback adventures of the Earth-2 Superman and Batman doesn't bode well for Helena Wayne; and it's probably too soon to gauge the popularity of Grayson's Helena.
* * *
If this really is the beginning of the end for Earth 2, it's a shame. As I said last week, I've enjoyed the book. Still, in thinking about how it turned the original Earth-Two concept inside-out, I'm frustrated that it didn't do more with the counterparts it created. From the late '30s to the early '50s, the Golden Age characters had to justify their existences month in and month out. Opening up the Multiverse gave them a second chance at life, but as an adjunct to newer, sleeker versions who were already pretty popular with their own readers. Later, for a quarter-century, they were part of the larger fabric of DC history, and eventually stood alongside three other superheroic generations. The Earth-2 of the New 52 arguably arrived with the same kinds of expectations as its characters — why call it Earth-2 if it's not about World War II superheroes? — but I think all involved have done yeoman's work to make this Earth-2 stand alone. Here's hoping it'll find a way to continue.
And here is the Futures Index for this week's Issue 15:
NOTES: I've had a busy week, so not much time to come up with number-related material. However, it's pretty clear the Masked Superman is not the actual Superman, with all the un-Super slang he throws around. I still think he's Wildfire.
Also, the scene on the rainswept rooftop reminded me pretty strongly of a similar scene early in "Reign of the Supermen," where Lois confronts the Cyborg Supes and comes away convinced that he's the real thing. Dan Jurgens wrote and drew that sequence, and I'm pretty sure he wrote this one too.
I could have gone a long time without picturing the New 52 Hawkman hooking up with someone. This is the latest indignity DC has visited upon Amethyst.
This issue did tell us why Mister Miracle looks so calm in his cell: he's been escaping the whole time. I don't know who "Rita Loomis" is, but Oswald Loomis is the Prankster, an old Superman villain.
As soon as Frankenstein put on Hawkman's Nth-metal arm, I figured it would have something to do with his eventual cyborg-ification, and this issue presents another step down that path. There's a lot of marking time going on in Futures End — and I'm guessing that'll continue at least until we get into September — so this and the Mister Miracle appearance are pleasant departures.
NEXT WEEK IN THE FUTURE: Chin-stroking! Elbow-pounding! Load-lifting! Finger-pointing! And … the Engineer attacks!
I didn't know how to read the whole "Loomis" thing. In one of the panels, there's a word balloon pointed AWAY from both Kendra and "Rita," so either it was badly drawn or Loomis was a third, off-person panel. At this point, I am interpreting the scene as meaning that (Oswald?) Loomis was off-panel but participating in the conversation, and that's Rita Farr talking to Kendra.
Personally I think Masked-Supes is Shazam but who knows?
I am very much hoping the weekly sereis will not be the beginnign of the end for Earth 2, as I agree there has been a lot of work (in my opnion great work) from James robinson, Tom Taylor and Nicola Scott to introduce and develop these new iterations of the Golden Age heroes.
I still see these heroes as being born out of "World War 2″, as they are fighting a war on many fronts around the world to repulse an Apokoliptian incursion for the second time. This is a twist I enjoyed, and loved the way a team has slwoly been comign together as the war conitnues.
I think it would be a massive shame for this introduction to merely set up a grouop of characters to be killed off/"changed forever" in a crossover event, even if the change was to have them appear on Earth Zero (I think I saw on the poster for Multiversity the main DC world is Earth Prime ??). I would like to see the characters continue operating on Earth 2, perhaps assisting the world to rebuild after the two invasions, sometimes acting as a team, other times being solo heroes building a career (or avoiding one. I would love to see Val Zod continue to be "the pacifist" Superman).
The possibilities that are available to a group of new heroes on a new Earth in the DCU are too vast and interesting (and the groundwork laid so compelling) it would be a waste for the series to not continue exploring Earth 2 and the heores who live on it.
I recall reading a Batman/Superman issue that featured Ray Palmer that had Superman suggest he pick up a Superhero codename and ended with him calling himself The Atom. I don't know where DC plans to go with that, but it looks like the New 52 Universe finally has its proper Atom.
I hope that if the title Earth 2 ends after the weekly concludes it evolves into some sort of New 52 iteration of JSA. I agree it is a waste if the characters go on the back burner

Police mark decade since teen's disappearance
MONTGOMERY Vermont police say investigators are still receiving tips about the 2004 disappearance of 17-year-old Brianna Maitland, last seen when she left her job at a Montgomery inn.
Wednesday is the 10th anniversary of Maitlands disappearance.
Police say there is a strong likelihood that Maitland was the victim of a crime.
Maitland was last seen when she left her job at the Black Lantern Inn in Montgomery at about 11:20 p.m. on March 19, 2004. Her car was found the next day next to an abandoned farmhouse a short distance from the inn where she worked.
Police say there is no evidence she left the area willingly.
State Police Major Glenn Hall says investigators believe someone knows what happened to her.

Top flight English clubs last month approved the introduction of limits on losses and curbs on increases in player wages to try to ensure that the latest television cash windfall leads to greater financial stability.
"We believe very strongly that each club should continue to be permitted to run their business - including their pay rolls - as they see fit," Cortese said in a statement.
"This is fundamental to the future integrity of football," added Cortese, a Swiss-Italian former banker who has run Southampton for the past four years.
Cortese said Southampton, back in the top flight this season, were already operating "within the spirit" of the new rules, which are themselves inspired by UEFA's Financial Fair Play curbs for Europe's top clubs.
The club made a net profit of 900,000 pounds ($1.35 million) in the six months to the end of December. It was the first time since 2005 that they have had a surplus without the aid of additional income from selling players.
The value of a Premier League place was underlined by an almost trebling of revenues to 33.1 million pounds in the last six months of last year. Southampton are currently 16th in the 20-team league, just above the relegation zone.
Southampton have had a remarkable revival since German-born businessman Markus Liebherr bought the club out of administration four years ago, putting Cortese in charge of the day-to-day running of the club.
Liebherr died in 2010 but his family have continued to support the south coast club. Back-to-back promotions have been earned, helped by a total investment of 38 million pounds from the owners.

Low Impact Development (LID) is an innovative, ecosystem-based approach to land development and stormwater management. The LID philosophy is modeled after nature: manage rainfall at the source.
LID's goal is to mimic a site's natural hydrology by using design techniques that allow water to soak into the ground, filter, store, evaporate, and contain runoff close to its source, resulting in a natrual hydrologic landscape and a protected watershed. Techniques are based on the fact that stormwater management should not be seen as stormwater disposal. LID is a versatile approach that can be applied equally well to new development, urban retrofits, and revitalization projects.
You are invited to explore the brand new
recreational area at El Colegio Charter School, located at Bloomington Avenue
South and East 41st Street, at a ribbon cutting ceremony Friday, August
17 from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
The new outdoor facility is a testament to the power of
partnership and innovative thinking. The Latino culture-focused charter school lacks
space for outdoor recreation, with its only current option across the street at
the flood-prone Bancroft Meadows. School officials developed a plan to convert
a vacant lot behind the building into a small soccer field, basketball court,
community garden and patio/outdoor classroom.

Last Friday, the H was to go camping for three days effectively leaving me as a single mother from Friday morning to Monday evening. While on same vague level I feared the bear or moose attack that he could encounter being in the north woods I mostly feared this time alone with the kids. I griped about it to co-workers while secretly admitting that the worse I made it seem the better it would have to be. The difference from other times I'm alone with them is that while on maternity leave or on Mondays I always have that 6p respite when the H comes home. Here I would be all alone.
I feared it from a combination of reading spring break horror stories and the worst case scenario of I die and no one notices. Which would leave Bella sobbing and starving in her crib for four days. Bear, I know could manage. He would pull up a chair, open the fridge and get some milk and yogurt and watch on demand through some hit and miss with the remote. I like to think he could figure out how to feed Bella too, problem is he just couldn't take her out of her crib.
Clearly, I've thought a lot about this but I haven't died (yet) so it's of no consequence now.
The weekend I had been dreading actually went great. On Friday, Bear had his kindergarten pre-screening assessment that he passed with flying colors and as a treat we got Starbucks. Blueberry muffin for him, cappuccino and croissant for me. My MN best friend visited that afternoon, in the evening we had the incident but after that passed Bear and I order chicken wings and pizza from Dominos (and waited much longer than the 45-55 minutes quoted) we also drank sparkling grape juice from champagne glasses and watched Iron Man 2. It was quite the special evening. He wound up going to bed at 10:30 (in my bed) and I went in an hour later after working on my shutterfly book. Basically I had a date with my 4 year old son.
Saturday was mostly uneventful, we did go see Rio in the afternoon. As I arrived at the theater with 2 kids I began to reconsider if this was a good idea but Bella slept the whole movie minus the first 15 minutes when she was trying to figure out what was going on. The movie I loved especially all the references to Minnesota. Definitely recommend it!
Then I got a call from the H that they were coming early due to freezing rain and such which elicited my response: what for? We still had so much fun to be had!
So that night with the kids at my in laws my GNO turned into a double date with the H and the Godfather joining the MN Best friend and I at Applebees then I finished my shutterfly book and went to bed an hour after the H just like my date with Bear!
Overall it was a successful weekend. I am constantly impressed and amazed at what an amazing big brother Bear is. He so clearly loves his sister so much (and tells her so). He would sing her songs or "read" her Scooby Doo books and play with her if I was occupied. He loved helping make purees for her (more on that later) or picking them out from the store bought ones. He even would help feed her nicely scooping up the food and putting it in her mouth. I was in constant awe. I think a part of how it was such a successful weekend is because I had a little helper with me!
(Photos are from other times he played/read with her!)

When visiting Rome, stay at the Vecchia Roma Resort, conveniently located to the metro and Colosseum. Marco is an exemplary host, making itinerary suggestions while serving either a delicious sweet or savory breakfast. We would not have visited Ostia Antica had it not been for his suggestion. Save one night for an Italian sandwich at the grocery store and have a picnic at Parco Savello for a spectacular view of Rome as the sun sets. I cannot recommend Vecchia Roma Resort too highly.

Simply a Southern Belle: Tallulah Bankhead
3 comments:
I am wondering now if maybe my s-i-l might have in a round-about way been named after her. Her name is Tula. Of course, very southern. I am going to have to read up on Ms. Tallulah Bankhead. We live near Bankhead National Forest. Wonder if all that is related, I am guessing yes. Thanks for the post. P.S. I like the name Tallulah. ( I am almost southern; since 1971.)ReplyDelete

Then ten days later no card still, heck, 12 days later no card. After I call the second time saying I still havent received my card I get told They'll reissue another one and it'll be a few days, Only after i say can it be sent faster, did she say okay we'll also do it complimentary; I finally get it yesterday. >_<...
NEXT issue, I voided a check 1-12-12 ( still didn't have my debit card yet) for $135, i was told it'd take 24-48 business hrs and then it'll be in my account, A WEEK goes by and still not back into my account, I call consumer service again, which by the way, every time I have called they tell me to use the online services; as if I'm being a bother because I want my rightfully earned money to pay a bill that by this time is already past due.
Also by this point (second phone call) I had re-faxed the void check just for them to reissue the money back (they told me to) and its the 24th today (four phone calls later) and the money still isn't back in my account and I explained all my concerns and the same reply was not only by a female rep but also her female supervisor that "its not much they can do, banking has it, and it COULD be in by the end of the day"
The supervisor told me they are in CST in north america, so seeing as how the business day probably at best has little under three hrs left till its over, I more then likely will not have my $135 in my bank account to pay a bill that only excepts electronically payments because without that money I don't have enough in my account right now to pay it. I really don't understand why it takes so long to reissue a 135$ to the person's account who voided it in the first place and who also re-faxed it twice and they couldn't explain it to me. I was just told to wait and see.
In conclusion, I advise people to not bank with this company it leads to headaches, aggravation, and more bills to pay that you shouldn't have to in the first place, because this company has trouble even correcting a 135$ simple mistake or even reissuing a debit visa card.

I would caution any new investor to this board, or any stockhouse board for that matter. Certain opinions most deffinatley cross the line. No one knows at this point whether or not there will be a share consolidation, a buy out of any kind, never mind presuming you know at what price it will happen. Or predicting what year it will happen. C'mon guys get real, let the drill bit and production numbers do the talking. It has worked very well so far. Lets keep the over blown speculation to ourselves. I'am quite sure this management team is very capable of steering this ship.

Definition of deathwatch in English:
1A vigil kept beside a dead or dying individual.
Example sentences
- When his friend Sir Joseph Hooker's young son fell ill, Darwin drew on his own agonizing deathwatch of Annie to comfort him.
- During this period newspapers carried front-page stories of his losing battle with throat cancer, and readers maintained a long-distance deathwatch.
- Or maybe I'm just a sucker for another Hollywood tradition, a deathwatch graced by an angelic kid's big smile.
2 (also deathwatch beetle) A small beetle with larvae that bore into dead wood and structural timbers, causing considerable damage. The adult makes a sound like a watch ticking that was formerly believed to portend death.
- Xestobium rufovillosum, family Anobiidae.
Example sentences
- Male death-watch beetles bang their heads against the sides of their wooden tunnels to attract females.
- Indeed, the behaviour of death-watch beetle actually makes it more susceptible to surface treatments than common furniture beetle.
- Anobiids are similar to lyctids in color and size, but are cylindrical; the common furniture and death-watch beetles belong in this group.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I'm very disappointed with this company, because last year around March they went up on my interest rate to 30.24%. When I asked why, they told me that I went over my credit limit (which I wasn't aware of at the time, that I had to calculate the amount of interest that was applied to my card, and if that amount took me over my limit, I would be penalized for it).
I made several attempts, all the way up to today, to resolve it matter and they refuse to lower my rate, telling me they don't have a lower rate to offer me. When I applied for the card, it stated that if 6 consecutive payments were made in good standing, that the rate would be reviewed to be lowered. I have very good credit and have no problems with any other credit card companies.
Noone would allow me to speak to anyone who could assist me, and the 3 people that I talked to on the phone gave me all different information. I even sent them emails, but was written back that there's nothing they can do until a better rate comes up. REALLY....
I would really like to file a class action lawsuit. Bank of America already has a class action lawsuit filed against them for the same practices.

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's right. As soon as 3rd trimester starts (which is like you said, 28 weeks) you go every two weeks and then that increases to weekly, I THINK, during the last month??? Don't take my word on that, but I know you start going weekly when your due date starts to creep up.

Boat company fined millions
HOUMA — An Edison Chouest Offshore company was sentenced this week to pay $2.1 million after crew members knowingly dumped oily wastewater from a high-profile Arctic research vessel, the U.S. Justice Department said.
Offshore Service Vessels, an affiliate of the Galliano-based Edison Chouest Offshore, will have to pay a criminal fine of $1.7 million and pay $350,000 to the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation.
The R/V Lawrence Gould, was built in 1997 and does polar research for the National Science Foundation. Crew members discharged wastewater without first putting it through the pollution-control system on board, a fact the company admitted in a guilty plea, the Justice Department said.

For the past 6 months, we've been busy silently developing an advanced Kali Linux course the likes of which has not yet been seen in the industry. This set of in-depth, practical workshops focuses on the Kali operating system itself, demonstrating some of its advanced features and use-cases by its developers. As with all "Offensive Security" training, this workshop is intensive, educational, and addictively engaging. If you've ever wished for fluent proficiency with Kali Linux, this workshop is for you.
Our first opportunity to showcase this course will be at Black Hat USA 2014 in Las Vegas, where we will be running a full day workshop. This will be run separately from our regular Offensive Security Black Hat training classes (which by now are sold out). Shortly after the Vegas cons, we will also have the opportunity to present this workshop at the upcoming DerbyCon 2014 and BruCon 2014 conferences.
The conference events will include an interactive Q&A session with the developers, an in-depth look at the distribution including hands on instructions for creating your own custom Kali Linux ISOs, automatic unattended installations of Kali Linux, enterprise management of the distribution, building and utilizing Kali Linux on ARM and Android platforms, and the step by step creation of a custom Raspberry Pi image – transforming it into an effective hardware backdoor. These are just some of the topics covered…for a more comprehensive listing of the ever-changing syllabus, you can check our official Kali Linux Workshop description.
The workshop is both computer and network intensive. We've got the network part covered, but as you'll be using your own laptops for the exercises, we've got some recommendations for you:
After a very short deliberation, the Offsec team decided that once these training materials are polished and battle tested in the upcoming conferences, we will release them publicly and free of charge so that Kali Linux users worldwide will all be able to benefit from accessible, high quality training materials revolving around our favourite open source project. Our hope is that by doing this, our users will become both more aware and proficient with the advanced features available in Kali Linux and be able to use it more effectively. This means that we will release these workshop training materials to the public once the 2014 conferences end – for us, that ends up being mid December 2014. We will of course announce this release via Twitter and our blogs, so stay tuned!

Wedding day gesture remains a mystery after nearly 32 years
This is a story - part mystery and part mix-up - about three weddings, a cake and a fire.
When one couple's reception hall burned down on the day of their wedding - Aug. 15, 1981 - the party was hastily moved to a different location, where another newly married couple gave them part of their wedding cake.
But who was that generous couple?
The Milwaukee Journal said in an article the next day that it was Dave and Robby Mliner. But nearly 32 years later, we now know that isn't true.
"For all these years we were never sure. We knew we weren't asked directly, but we did think it was a possibility that somehow it was our cake," Dave told me last week.
We now have photographic evidence to the contrary.
Let's start at the beginning.
Dennis and Joyce Beauchene, who now live in Waukesha, were posing for photographs outside the church that August afternoon when the word came that their reception spot, Alioto's restaurant on Mayfair Road, was on fire. Tragically, two Wauwatosa paramedics died fighting the four-alarm blaze.
An Alioto's hostess and Joyce's sister teamed up and found an immediately available hall at the Ramada Inn Airport. Wedding guests who had arrived early at Alioto's stood outside with hand-lettered signs directing people to the Ramada.
Meanwhile, the Mliners' reception had begun at the Ramada. They don't remember hearing then that a couple had come over from Alioto's.
The next day, a Sunday, the Mliners were at Mitchell Airport waiting to leave on their honeymoon when they spotted an article in the Journal with the headline: "Wedding reception saved." It told about the change of venue for the Beauchenes, and it quoted Ramada manager George Krantz saying the Mliners had cut their own cake in half as a replacement for the Beauchenes' fire-ravaged cake.
Dennis Beauchene remembers it this way: His bride's brother found a Meurer's Bakery that had some sheet cakes they could use. Then, someone in charge at the Ramada told another newly married couple in one of the other reception rooms about the Beauchenes losing their original cake.
"They were then kind enough to give us a layer of their cake and bring it over to our room, where we assembled it into a larger cake with the other cakes that had been brought over from Meurer's," he said.
He and Joyce presented a bottle of champagne to the generous couple as a thank you. But they did not get their names.
All of this would have remained a murky memory, except for one thing. The Mliners have a longtime neighbor in New Berlin, Ray McInerny, and it turns out he had worked for 20 years with Dennis Beauchene.
Ray finally pieced together the link between the two couples, and last month he gave Dennis' email address to Dave. That gave the Mliners an opportunity to know once and for all if they were the cake donors, so Dave wrote to Dennis.
"I was stunned yesterday," Dennis told me last week, "when Dave wrote me with a copy of the article he had held onto since the day after the wedding. We have a copy of that same article ourselves. And it appeared for a bit that we had actually stumbled upon this other couple after all these years."
The Beauchenes had wedding photos that showed the couple who gave them the cake. So Dennis sent them to Dave and Robby.
"They looked to be a very lovely and happy couple," Dave said, "but they weren't us!"
Their part of the mystery was solved, but an obvious question remained.
"Who was the generous couple? And even after all these years, they probably should receive acknowledgment for the selfless act on their wedding day," Dave said.
I called the Ramada (now called the Ramada Plaza Milwaukee Airport) and the front desk manager, Sandy Gallagher, was kind enough to check their wedding rental records. Unfortunately, they go back only four years, not 32.
So look at the photos, and let me know if you recognize the mystery couple. Better late than never, we'll set the record straight.

I want to take photos that are already uploaded in my media library, and associate them with a post, so that I can include them in a "gallery."
I know that if you are editing a post, and you upload photos, they will be included in a "Gallery" for that post, so that mus mean that they are tagged somehow in the database: either as "Post## is associated with picutureX, pictureY, pictureZ" or "PictureX is associated with Post##"
Can anybody point me to where in the database this association is listed, so that I can change it directly in the database, thereby fooling WordPress into thinking those pictures were uploaded from a the particular post I now want to include them in (as a gallery)?
Clear as mud?
(I've searched the forum, and have not found a satisfactory answer)

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I had waited so long, spending $100/month with Austin Davis' Group, and wanted to get into a deal so that I could have some cash flow from the Apartment Bulding. "Kyle" at ZippyResults I'm sure was in cahoots with Penny Consulting, because they said I could get a "good deal" because we had an ongoing business relationship. I paid $2,300 in April/2011 for the Shelf Corp. The Corp. proved to be useless for obtaining business credit because Terry Penny sold me a DISSOLVED Corp.
It is now Januay 2012 and I have no Funding, No Business Credit, and paid a lot of money to buy the shelf corp and to get credit developed. I asked Austin Davis/CREProgram for help and for a refund of their fees, and have been completely ignored. ZippyResults has gone out but I found after research theat they converted to Midwest Group LLC in Kansas. Looks like they're selling insurance and the like. Don't do business with these folks.

#1 UPDATE Employee
Corinna Evrard's "completed ignored" statement is not factual
AUTHOR: Tara - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Friday, January 27, 2012POSTED: Friday, January 27, 2012
I am sorry to hear of your frustration with your investing experience as a former member of Austin's program. You requested assistance multiple times (over 100) on multiple deals, issues and questions on deals with your membership, and each time your requests were always responded to.
I am sorry that you were not satisfied with the help provided, but your statement that you have been "completed ignored" is not a factual statement. Every request for help you made was responded to.
All billing is done through Click Bank, of which is a independent third party, that administers all billing. We have no way to bill you other than what you agree to as per the terms and conditions on their website when you apply for membership. They store your credit card and billing information and we are never given access to it.
You canceled on 9/7/11. Then on 12/28/11 you recontacted our office demanding a refund, but were past the 60 days as was explained. We do our best to help every member reach their goals, but it appears you have now decided to take to the Internet to attack Austin and his program. I am sorry that we were not able to satisfy your concerns to your satisfaction.
Your request for suggested vendors/brokers/investors for help in obtaining funding as you requested were provided. You are needing help from Zippy Results and need to contact for help with your request, but it appears that have already done that as you were directed to do for help. I will send them another request to help you with your funding needs as a courtesy as a former member.
I wish you the best in your investing ventures in real estate. Again, I am sorry that you were not satisfied with Austin's program and membership and the extensive support and help you were provided on over 100 occasions from your emails requesting help.

Spectroscopy and spectrometry have been around for a long time; in the 'modern' era, spectroscopic instruments have been with us in one form or another for over 70 years. This is particularly true for that old 'workhorse' technique, UV-visible. So, by now it might be expected that there was a standardization and calibration environment to make the assurance of spectral data quality a matter of routine. However, nothing stands still in the application of analytical science to assuring quality. Very often it is the simple steps that are so easily forgotten, but fundamental to obtaining good quality data.
