Yesterday's look at the Eagles' second-quarter offense saw them drop an entire letter grade.
Without trying to spoil the show, the defense won't do the same.
While they have fallen a bit (they rank tenth in total defense as compared to third at the last checkpoint), they're still eighth in the league in points allowed and are doing well in several other categories.
Without further ado, on with the show.

Skip to comments.Gingrich insists he'll run until Romney has 1,144 delegates (article and short video)
Posted on 03/26/2012 3:45:42 PM PDT by VinL
Newt Gingrich insisted Monday that he would continue in the fight for the Republican presidential nomination until Mitt Romney secured the 1,144 delegates necessary to clinch the nomination, saying 'a whole new conversation' would occur if the frontrunner was also unable to hit the necessary total.
"I think the morning that he gets 1,144 that are locked down, then I think he claim to be the nominee. But until then, he's not the nominee," Gingrich said on CNN. "Remember, I'm from Atlanta, where we were ahead by 10.5 games last year with only 28 games to go, and the Cardinals didn't quit. Everybody wanted them to, but they just kept coming and they ended up winning. I think this is not over until it's over. "
..."Look, I think the front-runner's clearly Mitt Romney. Out of 10 million votes cast so far, he's only gotten four million. So he's the weakest front-runner in modern times," Gingrich said.
Gingrich defended his candidacy from calls from Republican leadersand some of his own supportersto exit the race.
"I say to them the same thing that Hillary Clinton would have said in 2008 when she was taking on Barack Obama. That ran all the way to mid-June, and only when he had finally the votes did he have the votes. This is a contest. "
"Gov. Romney spent six years, $40 million of his own money. He has outspent the rest of us by huge margins, and he's gotten four million out of 10 million votes. There is no obligation to concede it to him. If he can win it, more power to him. If he doesn't win it, then June, July and August become very interesting months," Gingrich said.
Host Wolf Blitzer then pressed Gingrich to admit that rival Rick Santorum ...

Newt can stay in but he won't be winning anything. To think so is delusional.
Hey Trapped, shout out back. We're in, until Newt's out.
You make stuff up.
Can Newt win another state in the schedule? If so, Game on!
If not, hes helping Mitt
I don't know if he wins another state- doesn't matter really. Newt's playing for a playoff— stop Romney, get into the open convention tournament.
Newt has to stay around— if not, Romney and the Gop-e will overwhelm team player Rick. It will be over in a flash-.
Right now, Newt helps Rick.
Then we all lose. I don't believe Santorum or Romney will or can beat obama. But as long as we actually have someone in the race capable of leading the country and making the difference of America being able to escape from the mire and muck we're in or not, I'll support him. To have a nominee that can't win the big one is another very hollow victory.
If you are going to say I made something up, then at least point out what I made up.
Here's looking at you with my thumb and index finger over my forehead in the shape of an L ;)
you're sitting in your pajamas at a keyboard, with your "thumb and index finger over [your] forehead" ....and you're saying that Friend Trapped is the Loser?????
Newt cannot win the big one. He can't even get Republicans and conservatives to vote for him.
What part of that is it you don't understand?
He comes in behind Ron Paul in more than a few races.
Newt would be creamed in the general election.
Oh and by the way--I think it's great that Rick Santorum is a devout Christian Conservative with a solid moral core.
Santorum or Romney can't win and they are both unacceptable to me. I wouldn't have said that about Santorum a few months ago but he keeps putting his foot in his mouth. I'll stand with the one who could actually lead the nation and make a good President.
The accsation that if we're not for your guy we're for Romney, If your guy was also a FISCAL CONSERVATIVE and could keep his foot out of his mouth he could possibly attract some of us. WHY would a rational person make that choice between Romney and Santorum as long as Newt is in the race, as a Social Conservative I would think you would recognize that there are some things worth praying for and worth to much to give up on.
Wow,Mitt sure loved that one—and what good did it do Newt?
I rest my case.
Peace FRiend;)
Your case would be that Santorum could win, unless you yourself are either for Romney or obama, hard to figure out which, santorum would be easy pickings for obama and you're working awfully hard to get Newt out of the race. If you're really for Santorum you could talk to him about his foot in mouth disease and that many of us Social Conservatives are also Fiscal Conservatives. Can you explain his quote?

Well, maybe he will become president of Georgia.
Good for Newt!!!!!
June, July and August should be loads of fun.
This has got to be really pi$$ing Romney off... and I love it.
As for Saintorum, well, he has yet again documented his "true conservative" metal , as well as his commanding knowledge of the constitution and the rule of law. LMAO
Go Newt Go....
** President Newt Gingrich-"Our beloved republic deserves nothing less."
"Well, maybe he will become president of Georgia."
Well, maybe Saintorum will become president of Pennsylvania.... no wait, the voters had already tossed him once. LMAO
And you and Santorum working hard to re-elect obama. Have you figured out what Santorum is saying in that quote yet?
Mathematically it doesn't work out that way. Polling across various states shows without Newt, Santorum gets no more than 57% of Newt's share. In some states, Mitt getting 4 or 5 out of 10 Newt voters lets him will top 50% total which can mean he captures all delegates from the state.
Newt's exit actually accelerates Romney's path to the nomination.
Examining polling data and six upcoming states, Santorum can only be advantaged with Newt leaving if he can get within 2% of Romney now on his own (with Newt still in) and he outperforms the two-man best polling with 6 out of 10 Newt voters every time.
Boom goes the dynamite.
Shout out to warrior VinL!
It's not so much Newt has given Santorum his ideas, Santorum has more or less stolen them, and there are times when his speeches include more of Newt's ideas, quotes and policies than Santorum's speechwriters. It's really sad to see the so-called good Christian candidate act in such a blatant political, cynical way, especially when Santorum has said his ideas and principles are written on his heart... this is gagsville bigtime.
Bob Beckel on the Five said today that he and Newt had a long ride into the city on the train this morning, and a very long and interesting talk. And Beckel offered one tidbit that he seemed impressed by - that Newt told him that by him and Rick staying in through the convention Obama doesn't who to prepare for, and they are essentially keeping him tied up; whereas Rick's, Romney's and Newt's campaigns can start their fall strategy and ad-making right now, since they know who their opponent will be. According to Newt, we need to keep doing what we're doing until June 26th, circle that date on your calendars!
Major shout out to MAJOR Warriors Trapped and VinL. :)
Im not knocking Newt. Its his choice. But it does seem odd that he doesnt envision coming back at least into second place in the race, but still continues on.
Id much rather see Ron Paul drop out. But theres no chance that he will, judging from his past behavior.
You're not seeing this clearly. If there is a pool, outside of romney committeds, of conservative and quasiconservative voters, call them nonromneys, to some degree or the other. Some of them will go to santorum as the socon, and some will go to Newt as a strongly proven conservative.
Polling has shown that if Newt or Santorum weren't in, in other words, if one of the "conservatives" dropped out, not all of their votes go to the remaining "conservative" singularly - approximately 50% of that pool would go to the only conservative remaining, and the other 50% to romney. So by staying in, Newt is robbing Romney of 25% of the delegates he would have gotten if only one conservative was in the race. Don't know if I explained it well enough, but that is the quantitative picture of what is going on if Newt stays in or if there are two anti-romneys.
Actually, I think it illustrates Sarah's concerns that value voters are not really thinking clearly or big picture, and that they are choosing the wrong candidate to bring to the general. And the fact she did jump in for Newt means that she realizes that religious zeal, especially in the South, is the card Santorum is playing, and it won't pack much wallop elsewhere.
I think Sarah understands, like alot of Newt supporters everywhere, that it is very difficult, if not impossible to dissuade those captured by religious or ethnic zeal -- exactly like what happened in 2008 with the dems.
The above, and I think he knows a major push is going to come forth in the coming weeks from the republican establishment and some, if not all, of the conservative media. He doesn't know that Rick will withstand that all, especially if they promise him if he does right by romney, next time it will be his turn... he will take one for the team again.
Newt, the bastard, won't give in and can't be bought. he already knows most of the party hates him. This is a man on a mission...
June, July and August should be loads of fun.
This has got to be really pi$$ing Romney off... and I love it.
As for Saintorum, well, he has yet again documented his true conservative metal , as well as his commanding knowledge of the constitution and the rule of law. LMAO
Go Newt Go....
** President Newt Gingrich-Our beloved republic deserves nothing less.
RE "This has got to be really pi$$ing Romney off..."
think beyond Romney, the Gop-e must be having hourly hissy fits... this was supposed to be all over and done by now. Their boy was supposed to be in, and all that was left was the coronation in Tampa. And then the rabble got roused, and their candidate isn't buying the election as easily as they thought he would... all in all, they are having many many really crummy days in a row...
I'm not really sure what you're talking about, "not serious"... I thought Newt provided a lot of historical perspective, facts and figures, and a baseball analogy that was very apt.
Either way, he's headed for Tampa. Time the Establishment GOP realized they can't take the base for granted...
He came in with classtoo bad he has decided not to go out the same way.
Now all he is doing is giving Mitt's people an excuse to bash Santorum while claiming to be his people.
You don't have to have a great imagination to visualize what romney would do to santorum to finally get him out of the way. He would simply decide to assassinate him as he did Newt in Florida.
What I have heard, maybe you have also, is that romney's vaunted campaign staff is flummoxed right now - they thought newt was dead and gone, and they are not sure who they should eliminate immediately, and who they should have a last stand with... of course, they believe they have but to decide and can accomplish their goal, when it's really more like pressing on a soft balloon...
Oh, and just to disagree with you a little, I really can't fathom any political circumstance where Newton Leroy is insignificant...
I saw it, also, and thought it was excellent, too. apparently, santorum was on Friday and got into a shouting match with Neil and had one of his little Santantrums. I am hoping Cavuto has lots of regular viewers who saw both, and noted the difference in maturity and depth of experience.
BINGO! Not only that, the party establishment would embrace and fall in love with Newt and he would be the GOP's kingmaker! He could probably write his own ticket from here on, IF that is what he wanted..
Instead, for the past month, Newts only ads attack Mitt- and today again he defended Rick (re: Ricks temper tantrum)- citing the pressure of the campaign.
Not only did he graciously defend rick, when, if santorum had the same type of opportunity, he would gotten off a major smarm on Newt. but more importantly, Newt pivoted from that right onto Obama and his hot mic remarks, with a scathing indictment, and asking what other deals has barack made for after the election? He said santorum wasn't the dangerous one, obama was... Rick Santorum has never been that gracious or honest about Newt..
"they are having many many really crummy days in a row..."
That thought gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling in my heart. ;>)
"Newt can stay in but he wont be winning anything. To think so is delusional."
Saintorum can stay in but he wont be winning anything. To think so is delusional.
You have made your pick and it is Mitt—simple logic.
You have been all to "Happy" to bash Newt, I didn't Bash Santorum, I bashed you for your tactics, I don't believe you're likely to get many converts to Santorum with your tactics and I don't think Santorum is likely to get many converts with the comments he's made lately. Your tactics are as likely to turn people away from Santorum as his own comments and "FISCAL" record.
His quote, to me means we need a debt so I can refrain from voting for the outrageous spending the other guy wants while continuing to vote for the outrageous spending I want. If we had a balanced budget and no outstanding debt I couldn't control myself and I would vote for his outrageous programs also.
If you are looking for conversions to Santorum you need to show he is actually better than Romney. At this point I don't want either of them. I've tried to refrain from this type comment on Santorum but you and your buddy dforest seem to bring out the worst in some people. You have ignored my reasons for staying with Newt other than saying it's your guy or Romney choose now. The choices I make are mine, not yours and I'll make the right choice at the right time and I guarntee it won't be anytime before one of the candidates gets the 1144 needed.
You mention rational decisions, how rational would it be for me to jump on the Santorum bandwagon now even as it's headed for the ditch and how rational is it for you to believe that someone such as myself with my beliefs and loyalties would jump to your guy because of what sounds like schoolyard taunts, "If you don't like Rick your for Romney", NO I don't like your guy, I didn't like Dole or McCain or HW or Ford either. It's like a very bad snakebite and I'm not going to cut my foot off until the gangrene sets in.
I left three comments out of post 86. NO I don't like Romney, No I don't like Paul, and your logic and rational are both suspect.
I remember when Bubble Gum was rationed, so I know what corny means. {:-)
That alone is the most telling event in this election. What a legacy for Newt. There has been plenty of blood letting on these threads, but to what purpose?
Pray for our Nation, for surely we are about to see how badly we need Him.

ahhhhhhh….. GHIC OUT!
I'm interrupting my current spate of blog posts responding to fits of pique, to announce an upcoming fit of geek. Namely the second annual incarnation of our local geek (comics, sci-fi, gaming, general pop culture) festival and/or "con" called, Geek Out!
I missed last year's inaugural GeekOut, due to commitments to offspring matriculation in other parts of the state occurring simultaneously, but I'm glad to announce that I will be included in the Artist Alley section of the con this year.
Along with offering to draw caricatures in exchange for only some devalued US currency, I will also be selling copies of my new 62-page full-color paperback book. It is a compilation of selected comic strips from the last 5 or so years of my "Land of This Guy" cartoon that has appeared on a mostly weekly basis in the local alt-weekly, The Mountain Xpress. Sure, you probably saw most of them already for free, but here they are printed on good paper instead of awful newsprint and additionally, I supply a director's commentary on each one as an added bonus feature and page-filler!
I only have 50 copies, so be sure to stop by to get one either signed or not signed, depending on whether you like your reading material defaced with other people's scribbling inside or not.
Any copies left over will be available for sale here or on any of my other sites and any left over from that will be stuffed into a pillowcase and buried with me when I die, so that I can take the shame of my failure to get even 50 people interested in purchasing a small segment of my life's work for less than $10 with me to the grave.
So, while I'm still here, come out to Geek Out this Saturday, May 4, 2013 at the Sherrill center at UNC-A from 9:30 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. and in addition to seeing cool guests and cosplay and a plethora of geeky goodness all in one place, also try to make my life have meant something!
Producing Stereotypes
Here is a good article from Carolina Public Press Written by Paul Clark about the Southern Stereotypes in comics exhibit at WCU (where they were nice enough to invite me to a cartoonist panel discussing such things). I was also interviewed for this article.
In it, I spoke about my late uncle's produce business and how he would dress up as the stereotypical "hillbilly" that potential tourists/newcomer customers would expect to see. Here is a collage of some of the label/ad designs I tried to come up with for him, as well as a photo from a newspaper clipping of him and my late aunt:
An interesting aside, is that I used him as the inspiration for a cartoon (featured in the same Carolina Public Press article) where I take up the issue of cultural stereotypes that was partially in response to another cartoon by fellow cartoonist, Randy Molton that was featured in the Asheville alt-weekly, Mountain Xpress. Randy's "pigdemic" cartoon (suggesting certain bestiality inclinations inherent in certain people in certain geographical regions) caused not a small bit of controversy at the time (May 6, 2009 issue).
My cartoon was a little better-received, but still had its critics. As local writer and Appalachian historian, Betty Cloer Wallace remarked:
"Well, Brent Brown's "Stereotypes" cartoon is quite humorous and a great improvement over Molton's "Pigdemic," even though Brown's "hillbilly" character is the only person of the five types in his entire cartoon who is portrayed as being ignorant for real, ignorant beneath his stereotype. (It's hard to get away from it, isn't it?)
Even the double-negative frame, although borderline, is humorous.
I think the cartoon would have been even funnier, though, if Brown had left out the stereotypical language "whatchoo you in fer" and instead had the real person behind the ignorant stereotype saying something unexpectedly erudite.
It clearly is possible to poke fun at stereotypes in ways that are not insensitive or insulting toward a person, group, or culture, and except for "whatchoo you in fer," this cartoon does that quite humorously.
By Betty Cloer Wallace
What she did not know, was that it was based on an actual person, my uncle, who—though he was playing the part of the cartoon hillbilly as a marketing gimmick—was nevertheless a rough-around-the-edges, rural, country type who was still prone to speaking in a NC mountain dialect with syntax and grammar not considered proper or correct and filled with regionalisms. To have him sound like Rex Harrison would, I agree, have been a funny idea, but in this case, I was being true to the comic strip avatar of my uncle Bobby. It was also a way to say that even though the people here may have an accent and non-standard way of speaking, that they are still nothing like the cartoon stereotype portrayals that may or may not even be based on reality, but became so prevalent that even the people they mock eventually used them for their own purposes.
Anatomy of a Cartoon
Often I get asked what goes into creating a new cartoon for the Mountain Xpress (alternative weekly free paper based in Asheville, NC and distributed there and amongst the neighboring counties)and by often, I mean never. However, just in case anyone was actually interested in such a thing, I have put together this step by step, behind-the-scenes, DVD extra, cinema verité look at just what goes into those cartoons that you probably don't see every week. Won't you please read on? The process starts as soon as the last cartoon has been sent in on the Friday afternoon deadline. Actually, a period of relief and recuperation follows that submission and a weekend of not having to think about the cartoon follows, but honestly, as soon as Monday morning rears it's weekly head, that sinking feeling of another impending deadline starts ulcerating and the quest for ideas to do the cartoon about starts anew. This need for a new idea becomes more frantic as the week goes on, of course, and the fact that even if several stories of a local nature (the only kind of stories I can do, if I am to follow my mandated function as a local cartoonist for a local paper that is all about local and how local matters, um, matter) are current topics, they may also be topics that A) do not lend themselves easily to cartoon lampooning fodder or B) are in the same vein as similar topics that I and/or other local cartoonists have already done, sometimes many times, before. The search for inspiration within such narrow stipulations can be a problematic one for sure, but having the internet and no actual job to commute to, work at and get paid from to waste my valuable time, I am able to scour the local media outlets, social networks and Twitterverses for that one nugget of a twinkling of a kernel of a spark of an idea maybe that might could possibly work if I try to tie it to some other seemingly connected or divergent or paradoxically juxtaposed incident out of which I can hopefully find a way to squeeze some amount of humor or at least social commentary.
Once I have the idea (in the case of this particular week's cartoon, the news had been about the New Belgium brewery announcement in Asheville, which happened not long after Sierra Nevada brewery announced plans to locate in neighboring Henderson County. There had also been news items about the long proposed, but never started Ecusta Trail from Henderson to Transylvania Counties, as well as news that Transylvania County was becoming a known biking destination. Some talk about a plan to link the two new future breweries with each other by a bike trail and the usual local grump grumbling about rails to trails, and biking in general from the online comments of stories about them, gave me the idea of imagining a future where such a wonder (to a biking and other greenway enthusiasts) could actually happen and then the chance to bring it down to earth with the reality of one of my favorite targets, the unimaginative rural locals and the unimaginative northern transplants that make up (or at least seem to make up) the population of my home county.
With an idea figuratively in hand (the most important and biggest hurdle to clear in getting the cartoon started) I was able to begin sketching out ideas. I've pretty much gone completely digital, with my Wacom pressure-sensitive tablet and various software programs that can simulate the look and feel of ink, pencil, watercolor, etc., but I still use a pencil and paper when just roughing out ideas and characters.
Once I have a general idea where the cartoon (in this case, comic strip, since it will take multiple panels to tell the story) is going to go, I can switch to the computer and (using the Manga Studio software I prefer to work in) decide how many panels it will take and start roughing out the layout and composition of each panel. First though, I need to write the actual dialog of the characters in the comic. This is important to do first, as it not only gives me the direction of what to actually draw in that panel, but depending on how much space the word balloons take up, it limits where and what can be drawn in each panel that will not be obscured by the words. In this case, and in most cases, since I am dealing with actual local issues and not made up circumstances, I have to research the information to make sure I have it all accurate. The location of the New Belgium brewery was mentioned in the news articles, so that was pretty easy to locate on a map. The location of the Sierra Nevada site in Mills River was much trickier, as it was set in some place called "Ferncliff Industrial Park" which I have never even heard of, much less seen and I have lived in Mills River for most of my life.
The process of locating the location of this purported site was increasingly problematic, as all the news stories and online press releases I could find about it never mentioned a street address or actual location. After much detective work, I was able to ascertain that it must be located somewhere near the French Broad river in Mills River, near the airport and facing Fanning Fields Road. Using Google street view, I was able to, eventually work my way down that road until I found a guesstimate of where it must probably ought to be and now I had the two sites to pinpoint on my cartoon map of the future multi-use, supergreenway path! I also needed to find an accurate map of the route to use in the cartoon for the panel that shows a birds eye/Google Maps view of the route and I needed to be relatively aware of where the Transylvania/Henderson/Buncombe county lines fell in the opening panel. Some reference photos of what the current railroad tracks in the proposed Ecusta trail look like needed to be sourced as well and I was also able to rely on my own experience on them. Finally, some reference photos for the bicycle (can't get that wrong, or I would hear about it) and I'm ready to proceed. Now, after the script has been written (limited by the space allowed in the panel and the size and shape of the word balloons) and the rough layout pencilled in, the final inking of the comic can begin with the reference sources all pinned down.
After all the details have been added in, I can export the Manga Studio file as a PSD layered file and then open that file in Photoshop. Now I can begin the process of adding in all the color that has to meticulously be put in by hand on each item. Luckily, I decided to make the final panel a sepia tone to indicate how backwards and old timey my beloved home county is in the comic. That meant I didn't have to color in each little thing in that panel at least, but I ended up having to make things various shades of the sepia brown to give them some depth.
Finally, I can send the finished image to the Mountain Xpress. First, however, I have been informed that I must make sure all the blacks in the ink, text, rules, etc. are all in 100% black instead of the CMYK build that Photoshop makes them automatically when I bring it into an RGB PSD file from Manga Studio (if these things mean nothing to you and make your eyes glaze over, imagine how I feel dealing it every week) so I have to find a way to select only those parts of the image and convert them to appear in just the BLACK channel after converting the image from an RGB to a CMYK image, increasing the size of an already large file to email, but it can't be helped, sorry inbox mail attachment file limits!
Now, I'm ready to mail the file to the MX editor, co-editor, editor when the editor is away, another editor who fills in for that editor and the art department guy. I could be done now, but I have one more chore I have voluntarily burdened myself with: I have to make a special version for the Mountain Xpress web site. You see, the dimensions of the comic I have been given to fit into for the print edition (and the large header that must appear above it each week) leave me with a very wide and narrow, horizontal space to fill. While this fits into the print version of the paper, the web site, in its current columnar layout, does not give much horizontal room for things and that includes the cartoons. Taking my very wide horizontal cartoon and shrinking it to fit into the narrow space of the web site reduces all that detail and text down to an unreadable size online, particularly in anything with more than one, two or at the most three panels. This being a five panel, two row cartoon, I felt I needed to make my usual WEB version of it. So, I had to take the finished, flattened CYMK TIFF 300 dpi print file and change it back to an RGB JPEG 72 dpi web file. Then I had to cut and paste the individual panels in order to get them to stack onto each other (in correct sequential order of course) until they make a vertical cartoon that will more easily fit into the online layout without having to be shrunk down to illegibility.
At last, the cartoon has been remade to fit online, and I send it in a second email to the MX editor and the MX webmaster (I send them separately, because in the past, I have sent web versions and print versions together , but found the print versions were being used online anyway and I also have received very stern reprimands from the print art director about "square-shaped comics with the wrong dimensions" that I should know better than to send for print which turned out to be the web version that someone mistakenly sent to the print department) to make sure they go only to those who need them. Then, at last, my cartoon finished for the week and only 40 or so hours spent in thinking of, researching, sketching, roughing, re-researching, writing, lettering, inking, coloring, manipulating, routing and sending my cartoon, I can relax and not think about it again for at least another two days! The $40 I have earned for it will go far, but that is not why I do it. I do it for the knowledge that I am creating something of quality that will be enjoyed by so many readers both in print and online and satisfaction that creating something that touches so many people in such a way that only such hard work and dedication to accurate detail and quality presentation can achieve!
Oh, did I mention that the online version I worked on and sent to the MX was never used and the web people just somehow tracked down the print version that I only sent to the print people and then converted that to use in a tiny, unreadable image on both the Facebook pages and web site? Did I mention that I mentioned this to them via an email that once again, contained the web version and that they still to this day did not fix it?
Did I mention why I bother to spend so much time every week on this cartoon? I'm remember there used to be a reason, but can't remember what it was now.
New Caricature Photos
New photos of caricatures I did at a corporate event for Sub Station II at the Renaissance Hotel in Asheville, NC. July 2009.
Cartoons Now ONLINE
For good or bad, Mountain Xpress has now begun posting my cartoons online as well as publishing them in the print edition.
Therefore, I won't need to post them here any longer, just link to them:
Charlotte Caricatures
Just added these snapshots of people with their caricatures that I did this weekend in Charlotte for the Maersk Company Party there. Just follow the link above or click on the photos below:
Game Show Challenge entry
This week's Toon Weekly challenge was about game shows. I wasn't that inspired by it, so I put it off 'til the last minute and had to rush something out quickly. If it sounds like I'm making excuses, that's because I am, but here it is, if the trend of washed up celebs hosting game shows that become even worse relationship killers than "The Moment of Truth"… then, you may have Debbie, sorry, DebRA Gibson hosting…… (it could happen!!)
New action figure drama sequence uploaded
I already shot a Spiderman/Doc Ock warehouse battle, so now it's equal time for DC and a Batman/Penguin battle at his abandoned warehouse lair, which looks somewhat similar. It is at the usual location or go directly to it by clicking here.
We Blog!
In today's news:
- I added this WordPress blog to my site because my host (Dreamhost), had an "easy install" of it and that's why it looks so plain, the "advanced install" was the only option that allowed you to customize the look.
- I actually remembered to bring my camera AND I remembered to USE it while doing caricatures in Asheville last night. So I updated the caricature photos page of my website (and by updated, I mean actually created one) and you can see it here. If I can remember as well, and have time, in the future, I will try to have one up for other caricature gigs at which I draw.3) After following a link mentioned in (fellow caricaturist) Brian Vasilik's webblog to Toon Weekly, I found the whole idea of being forced to be creative on a weekly basis more of a productive idea than a tedious one (which I would certainly have thought my initial reaction would be, since I am quite lazy) and I jumped right in on their last week's challenge to create a new Dick Tracy villain (see my entry below:)
- ..as well as doing a few roughs for their current week's challenge to redesign a character from the Wizard of Oz. I was going to go with darker versions of the Wicked Witch of the West and then the Munchkins, but decided to settle on a Howard Hughes version of the Wizard himself
- 4) It's Wednesday, so that means that if it's the other Wednesday and not the one where my cartoon is not in the Mountain Xpress print version, then it must be the week that it is in there. Since they don't put it on their web site as well, I will continue to update the current cartoon here (and on my Mountain Xpress cartoons page) for posterity and for those that can't get out to pick up an issue:
- That's it for this update and initial entry.
- Stay tooned.

BWW Review: Strawberry Theatre Workshop's RHINOCEROS: Funny, but Too on the Nose
by Amelia Reynolds - Sep 12, 2016
It makes sense that Strawberry Theater Workshop would put on a production of Eugene Ionesco's "Rhinoceros" right now. Ionesco's allegorical post-WWII production was far from ambiguous when it came to political stance. Directed by Jess K. Smith, this modern adaptation both soared and, at times stumbled from its approach to cultural relevancy. (more...)

BWW Review: OUT LOUD Theatre Brings Intense and Stunning DRACULA to Life
by Robert Barossi - May 9, 2016
Storytelling is something that, fundamentally, defies definition. Who is to say how a story should best be told? How many different ways have stories been passed down over the centuries? Whatever our own preferences are for storytelling forms and devices, there are countless others, often used in successful ways. In its three years of existence, OUT LOUD Theatre has at times defied conventional definitions of storytelling and developed their own unique style. With its spectacular use of that style, their current production of Dracula is a gorgeous example of the company's storytelling prowess, wrapped in a unique and surprising piece of theatrical art.

Seven Siblings Theatre Presents RHINOCEROS This June
by BWW News Desk - May 22, 2016
For their second production in 2016, Seven Siblings Theatre is pleased to present Rhinoceros, a surreal theatrical experience written by avant-garde playwright Eugene Ionesco. This is Seven Siblings' most experimental production to date. This show is produced as a part of THE Rhinoceros PROJECT, a ten day intensive experiment that shatters gender confinements, demands a series of physical and conceptual challenges, and explosively imagines Ionesco's work for a contemporary audience. Many of the roles have been cast in different genders than originally scripted, and the cast has only ten days to collaboratively explore and rehearse the play. As an added challenge, a list of ten things that must occur or appear in the production has been created, and the cast will explore how to incorporate them into the performances. (more...)

by Nancy Grossman - Mar 5, 2016
The Suffolk University/Boston Playwrights' Theatre co-production of Rhinoceros, newly adapted by Wesley Savick from Derek Prouse's translation, features a Boston setting, but maintains the themes of Eugene Ionesco's 1959 classic play from the Cold War era.

Live from Burbank: Premier Exhibition Benefitting Animal History Museum
by BWW News Desk - Mar 27, 2016
Time 5-9 PM on both Friday April 8th and Saturday April 9th Location: Animal History Museum Burbank Town Center 201 E. Magnolia Blvd., Suite 296 Burbank, CA 91502 Free and Open to the Public Chuck Wolf of the Wolf Fine Art-Los Angeles, to curate the premier art exhibition at Animal History Museum. Live From Burbank! "Any time an art show involves a life-sized Rhinoceros, I think you're off to a good start. This one happens to be completely covered in 1000, one dollar bills. It's the contribution of Funny Zoo co-founder Bernard Scoffie, who also heads the French foundation 30 Millions d'Amis (30 Million Friends) an animal advocacy group started in 1976 by his family. Also contributing sculpture is Claudio Garzon, working in marine debris plastics, which call attention to the dangers of rising plastic levels in our oceans, and their threat to marine wildlife, like marine mammals, sea birds and sea turtles. "One thing the two sculptors, nine painters and one photographer all have in common is their enthusiasm and passion for animals. There will be a lot of large work exhibited with a lot of five and six foot pieces...and a lot of color. This is a contemporary show by local L.A.-based artists, and that flavor is distinct, with lively vibrancy and realism to pop and conceptual styles," Chuck Wolf, Fine Art Curator, The Wolf Fine Art. A phenomenal group of top tier talent exhibiting include: Gared Luquet, Aimée Rolin Hoover, Theresa King Paden, Linzi Lynn, Alicia Rius, Melinda McLeod, Carol Heiman-Greene, Kim Kimbro, Krista Augius, Chris Saunders, Funny Zoo, and Claudio Garzon. About Animal History Museum The Animal History Museum announces that it will open doors later this Spring to a 5,300+ sq. ft. location at the Burbank Town Center in downtown Burbank, CA. 'People throughout all civilizations have long understood that humans can and do form deep, meaningful relationships across species. For most of recorded history, that relationship has been marginalized. But that's changing. '...Like the way natural history museums explore fossils and science, we'll explore interactions and relationships. 'We're thrilled that our very first exhibition is a collection of some of LA's best-known 'animal' artists, curated by longtime L.A. fine art dealer, Charles Wolf,' says Museum founder and Executive Director, Amy Breyer.

- Conference date: 8-12 September 2003
- Location: Sante Fe, New Mexico (USA)
The neutrino oscillation in GRB fireballs is studied by assuming the fireball as a plasma of photons and electrons‐positrons. We show that, in this medium, only the ve ↔ v μ,τ oscillation can take place resonantly depending on the fireball parameters. On the other hand the v̄e ↔ v̄ μ,τ oscillation is supressed. In most of the models for producing the GRB, the central engine will produce more ve and v̄e then v μ, v τ and the corresponding anti‐neutrinos. When these propagate through the fireball, they will undergo resonant conversion from one type to another and because of the higher flux of ve , the probability of obtaining v μ and v τ will be higher then in the reverse process, thus enhancing the fluxes of v μs and v τs.

Am still waiting for their JS denim Wings to be release
New Videos
Subscribe to the Sneaker News Youtube Channel
December 31, 2011 BY Aaron Hope / 6
'Crazy' is one word that comes up quite often when discussing Jeremy Scott's adidas Originals by Originals collaborations, but here's one that goes so far as to affirm this status with a look that might have been inspired by a straight jacket. The Jeremy Scott x adidas Originals JS Combat Boot is fairly outrageous in the sheer scope of its black leather construction, but not only does this bruiser land halfway up your calves, but it's also secured with a melange of leather straps held together by buckles and padlocked for good measure. A couple degrees away from the mainstream, you'll be able to break knecks in the JS Combat Boot when they hit select Three Stripes retailers soon; are these the craziest boot design in all of 2011? via SM

text: It looks like a nice flying day on November 7, 2015, except for Michigan that is getting the brunt of autumn lake-effect showers. A Change of Seasons The most immediate change that meteorologists and pilots see in the weather pattern is an increase in the tropospheric flow across the United States and southern Canada at all levels. This starts in earnest in September and continues through October. Temperatures decrease rapidly in the polar regions as fall progresses, dramatically strengthening temperature contrasts between high latitudes and the tropics. This enhances the jet stream pattern and surface patterns alike. So across the board we see an increase in clear air and mechanical turbulence everywhere. Continue Reading

Nova Scotia Moose Deadline Approaching
Prospective moose hunters have less than a week to apply for one of the 345 moose hunting licences. The application deadline is midnight Thursday, May 31.
There are four moose management zones within Victoria and Inverness counties, the only counties in the province where moose hunting is permitted. There are three 2007 hunting seasons. The first season is Sept. 24 to Sept. 29. The second season is Oct. 1 to Oct. 6. The third season, which is limited to zone one, is Dec. 11 to Dec. 13.
"We remind hunters of the application deadline because most are not thinking about hunting at this time of year," said Natural Resources Minister David Morse. "The draw happens in the spring so winners are able to save vacation days for this unique experience and have time to plan their hunting trip."
As of May 21, 6,387 entries had been received. Last year, there were 10,407 applications for the three hunts in Inverness and Victoria counties. The hunts have been successful in recent years, with 88 per cent of hunters getting a moose in 2006.
Mr. Morse reminds prospective hunters to consider the season and zone they apply for.
"Terrain, access, available guiding services and abundance of moose differ considerably from one moose management zone to another. Even the weather can differ considerably from the higher elevation of the northern most zone to the more southerly zones," said Mr. Morse.
Applicants can call 1-900-565-3337 or mail application forms to Moose Draw, Wildlife Division, 136 Exhibition St., Kentville, N.S., B4N 4E5. They must have a Wildlife Resources Card and apply for one of three hunting seasons and one of four zones.
Winners' names will be announced during a public draw event at the Port Hawkesbury Civic Centre on Tuesday, June 12 at 11 a.m. All winners will be notified by mail. After the draw, applicants can check to see if they won by entering their Wildlife Resources Card number on the website at www.gov.ns.ca/natr/draws/moosedraw .

BMI view: We see the lowest meat consumption growth in Latin America on a global basis, especially for beef. Therefore, we expect correspondingly slow growth for large beef producers such as Brazil and Argentina. For poultry and pork, we are significantly more optimistic for growth prospects in the region over the medium term. For dairy, we expect strong demand growth potential for milk and other dairy products in the medium term. These changes will be due to several reasons including base effects, economic, political and cultural factors.
Out of all the emerging regions we cover, we see the slowest growth potential for meat consumption in Latin America, for beef in particular, and therefore corresponding to slow growth for large beef producers such as Brazil and Argentina. This is because meat consumption per capita in the region, especially beef, is among the highest in the world even though it grew at a slower pace than other markets in Africa and Asia in the past decade. Meat consumption in Latin America averaged 60.0kg per capita in 2012, compared to 72.5kg for Europe and North America, and 23.5kg in Asia and Africa (excluding developed markets, i.e. Australia, Hong Kong and New Zealand). As a result, Latin America is getting closer to developed market standards in terms of meat consumption. This happened even though meat consumption per capita growth in the past decade was much slower in Latin America (at 19.6% between 2000 and 2012) than in Africa and Asia (at 30.2% over the same period).
|High Beef Consumption
|Select Countries - Beef Consumption Per Capita In 2012 (kg/year, LHS) & Growth Out To 2016/17 (%, RHS)
Loving Their Beef
Beef consumption growth in Latin America (LatAm)'s largest producers, Brazil and Argentina, will stall by the end of our forecast period. Beef consumption per capita in both countries has increased by 57.3% in Brazil and 65.2% in Argentina between 2000 and 2012 and now stands at 40kg and 46kg respectively; not far behind the US (at 50kg per capita), which is the highest consumption in the world. These consumption habits are linked to the size and the quality of the cattle herd in these countries as well as the abundance of pastures and feed stock. Also, in Argentina, beef prices are highly regulated by the government, encouraging demand. These ensure strong growth in beef production as well as generally low prices for beef. These similar factors were a basis for beef consumption per capita in North America and Australia to reach their current highs.
|Fat Intake Picking Up, All From Beef
|Select Countries - Total Fat Intake From Animal Products In 2009 (LHS) & By Product (kg/capita/year, RHS)
However, in all of the largest beef consuming countries, we are already seeing a pullback in red meat consumption linked to health concerns. In fact, in the US, Canada and Australia, we forecast stagnant to negative beef consumption growth over our forecast period. For Brazil and Argentina, we see similar growth trends out to 2017 and expect stagnant consumption growth per capita in the coming years. We see a more mixed picture for the rest of the LatAm region, depending on where consumption per capita stands in 2012. Overall, however, we see the largest beef consumption growth opportunities in Asian and African countries over the coming five years.
|Chicken Flying
|Select Countries - Poultry Consumption Per Capita, Growth Out To 2017 (% year-on-year)
For poultry and pork, we are significantly more optimistic over the medium term on demand growth prospects for the region. For Brazil and Argentina, we expect some of the current beef consumption to be diverted to poultry in the coming years due to the increasing health consciousness of growing middle classes, and generally lower retail prices for chicken than for beef. Other countries in the region will even see large consumption-per-capita growth over the forecast period, with Mexico, Colombia and Venezuela following on the list with 3-5% growth out to 2017. Pork has even more potential for growth in the region since current pork consumption per capita is low by global standards. However, pork consumption has been slower to pick up in recent years as the region has not managed to boost production capacity, leaving prices generally less attractive than for poultry.
These dynamics mean that booming beef production in LatAm will mainly supply growth in exports, while poultry and pork production will increasingly feed domestic markets. We forecast beef production in Brazil and Argentina to rise by 19.3% and 26.6% respectively out to 2016/17 (mainly from base effects and recovering to previous highs), while consumption will increase by only 4.5% and 8.0% respectively over the same period. On the contrary, poultry production will increase by 29.2% and 33.3% in Brazil and Argentina, while consumption will grow by 18.9% and 22.4% respectively over the next five years. As a result, we expect the region to remain a major exporter of beef over the medium term, but we see more challenges for export growth in the poultry and pork segments in the long term.
|Got Milk?
|Select Countries - Milk Consumption Per Capita Growth Out To 2017 (% year-on-year)
Turning To Milk
For dairy, we expect strong demand growth potential for milk and other dairy products in the medium term. This is because, paradoxically, the region has the world's largest live cattle herds but maintains low dairy consumption per capita. Apart from Uruguay and Colombia, countries in the region drink 46kg of fluid milk per capita every year, compared to 120kg in the UK and 90kg in the US. Even if LatAm is not as significant for global milk supply as the US or the EU, it produces about 2.6 times more milk than it consumes so there is room for demand to increase without putting pressure on current balances and stocks. Over the coming years, we expect dairy production growth to accelerate (by 18.2% out to 2016/17), partially boosted by prospects for domestic consumer markets (demand is set to grow by 14.3% over the forecast period).
Implications For Key Players
Our outlook for consumption trends in the meat and dairy sector have significant implications for our views on the companies involved in the region. We are cautious on Brazilian beef producer JBS's growth prospects if the company does not succeed to diversify away from beef and into more profitable and higher growth markets, such as poultry, pork and dairy. Although we expect a recovery in the company's results as grain prices moderate, we still expect most of the sales growth in the coming quarters to come from the company's poultry assets, Pilgrim's Pride. JBS has indicated recently that it wants to boost its presence on the domestic Brazilian milk market through acquisitions and capacity expansion. The company also decided to spin-off its dairy unit, Vigor, and to list it separately in order to boost valuation for the division it values as the most promising. Peru's largest agribusiness conglomerate, Gloria, is specialised on the dairy sector and should see tremendous growth linked to increases in consumption per capita over the next decade.

…And Health Policy
As we highlighted previously for sugar ( see 'Regional Sugar Consumption Growth To Stall', 05 June 2013), we expect these changes in consumption habits to be supported by increasing government programs to combat obesity in LatAm. The region has very similar obesity levels to North America, and more governments are launching their own programs to limit the sugar and fat intake in diets, especially for children. Peruvian President Ollanta Humala signed a law on May 20th designed to reduce child obesity by encouraging healthier eating habits in schools. The law will target fatty foods and soft drinks in particular, the first step in a plan to ban junk food all together in schools. In Chile, a new program, called Elige Vivir Sano (Choose to Live a Healthy Life), encouraging healthier habits among the population has begun. The program's director indicated that there is a high percentage of Chileans with obesity problems, causing more than 7,800 deaths a year. Mexico has announced several times it would implement a strategy to combat obesity as child obesity alone costs about US$67bn annually in public health expenditure.

"Umm.. Okay, thank you." Ania then sat at the table, next to Anna, and set the bouquet on the table. Leaving it on the ground was like asking for someone to trip on it, after all. She then gestured to a waiter, to catch his attention so she could place her order. She asked him for a fruit cocktail.
Ania could tell that Kuroko wasn't too fond of her, right now at least, so she would try to make her stay brief. However she wasn't about to leave too soon, it would be like admitting defeat.
"So. What have you been up to?" The dragon girl asked, addressing both Anna and Kuroko.
"U-umm, well.. Boris does not like to be disturbed when he's working. Especially nowadays, he's quite tired. More importantly, I think Akaito is already up there to see him." Cecily knew better than anyone that when Boris was at work, he didn't take well to visitors, much less any disturbances from his helpers. But she also knew that Akaito was one of the rare exceptions..
"Kai will probably convince him to take a break, so we should just wait a little bit... Would you like me to get you anything? Tea, coffee?" She smiled a bit, straightening her dress much like she used to fix up her maid's apron many years ago.
Boris nodded his head sleepily.
"Ah yes. That sounds quite nice.. But if I take a nap now, I stay asleep and wake up in the middle of the night, which wouldn't be very good." He yawned, watching Kai's tail sway; "I do think I'll take my eyes off those horrendous pieces of paper for a little while, though. By the way, Kai, did you get anything special from Ania?~" He smirked. He intended it to be a surprise, so he was careful not to say anything more.

Chicago: The man accused of holding three young US women captive for around a decade in a house in Cleveland will plead innocent to charges of rape and kidnapping, one of his lawyers said.
"There will be a plea of not guilty," lawyer Jaye Schlachet said.

'We found em, we found em'
Listen to police radio recordings of the moment they found missing US women Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight in a Cleveland house.
He would not say on what grounds Ariel Castro will plead not guilty in the case that has shocked America, urging the public to refrain from a rush to judgment.
"He's not a monster and he shouldn't be demonised by the media," the lawyer said.
The 52-year-old Castro, who is being held on an $US8 million bond, has been charged with kidnapping and raping three women over around a 10-year period, one of whom bore his child in captivity.
Prosecutors say they also may charge him with the aggravated murder of unborn babies at least one of the women lost during beatings, a crime that could carry the death penalty.
Michelle Knight, 32, Gina DeJesus, 23, and Amanda Berry, 27, were freed on May 6 after a neighbour heard Ms Berry call for help and kicked in the door to Castro's house in a working-class Cleveland neighbourhood.
"All the evidence will be disclosed at the court proceedings," Ms Schlachet said.
"I would ask the community not to rush, to consider everything before expressing an opinion."

Sale on
Cambridge University Press has opened a sale on the foreign titles that we always think twice before ordering. It offers a flat 50 per cent discount on imported academic works, which represents significant savings on cover prices in dollars and pounds. Subjects range from politics, history and literature, which are accessible to lay readers, to scientific and technical areas which have a smaller but intense readership. The sale lasts till March 31 unless stocks run out.
Among titles which catch the eye are the well-known companions to literature, covering areas from the Arthurian cycle via Daniel Defoe to Frederick Douglass and Thomas Jefferson. Standout titles include Michael Morris' Introduction to the Philosophy of Language and David Levy's Guide to Eclipses, Transits and Occultations, much beloved of amateur stargazers, whose soft copy is available on Google Books and the iTunes store. Titles likely to excite awe rather than mainstream interest include Femtosecond Biophotoniscs and Dynamic Energy Budget Theory for Metabolic Organisation.
Mumbai in verse

Altaf Tyrewala
Fourth Estate
Rs 299
This is Altaf Tyrewala in verse, after the success of the novel No God in Sight and Mumbai Noir, the Akashic Books title he edited. This avatar of Tyrewala remains as stark as his first published work, a short story dating back to 2000. It is set on the same stage of Mumbai, an inhumanly unfeeling, soul-dead city where life can only be a crazy joke.
The jacket blurb declares the book to be a "new genre-bending work of far-reaching literary consequences". It is indeed commendable, in this decade of safe bets, for a writer to step away from the genre in which he gained recognition to play with poetry. But the verse forms here appear to have been used with no particular design in mind and the claim about literary consequences appears to be an exaggeration. Of course, Tyrewala has retained the visual acuity which gave muscle to his fiction but cannot bend the light towards a focus. The book is a page-turner but when it's finished, it is revealed as a rant. And hell, it could always have been written in prose.
