Pop star Rita Ora has shared a sneak peek from the 50 Shades of Grey set.
The singer is currently on location in Vancouver filming scenes for the movie where she plays Christian Grey's adoptive sister Mia and which also stars Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson.
The 23-year-old posted an image of the Grey family garden on her Instagram account. "I want a garden like this," she wrote.
She then posted an image of stacks of the best-selling EL James books, with the comment: "50 of 50's... How many 50's can one have? Ohhhh yeeaaaaahhhh."
Fans of the book series will have to wait until 2015 to see the film.

Cancer is a notoriously difficult disease to treat. Not only do a wide variety of cancers exist, requiring specialized treatments for each type, but cancer cells within an individual can morph and render previously potent therapeutics ineffective. Thus, there is a continual need to discover new, effective drugs. Research from Dr. Norihiko Nakazawa in the G0 Cell Unit at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST) led by Prof. Mitsuhiro Yanagida, may help make the discovery process easier. This research was published in Genes to Cells.
Cancer cells differ from normal cells in a variety of different ways. Most notably, malignant cells exhibit a much higher rate of replication and proliferation than normal ones. The rapid growth of these cells can result in tumor formation and metastasis, or the spreading of cancer to other parts of the body. Fortunately, scientists have been able to exploit these properties to create new treatments. Since the proteins involved in DNA replication are considerably more active in cancer cells than in normal ones, researchers have discovered that drugs which target these proteins will disproportionately affect the malignant cells. These drugs are designed to only affect active proteins, so that even though the same proteins exist in normal cells, the majority of the normal cells will contain inactive proteins at the time of treatment, and thus be unaffected.
Dr. Nakazawa's research centered on the use of a specific anti-cancer drug, ICRF-193, which targets a protein called DNA topoisomerase II. As part of his research, Dr. Nakazawa treated fission yeast with ICRF-193 and observed the effects. Typically, during cell reproduction, DNA is copied so that a cell temporarily contains twice the amount of DNA than it normally does. These two copies of chromosomal DNA are pulled to different ends of the cell by a protein structure called the mitotic spindle. Once the chromosomal DNA is separated, the cell begins to divide into two identical daughter cells.
When Dr. Nakazawa treated fission yeast with ICRF-193, he noticed that the cells appeared to have difficulty separating after DNA replication had occurred. Instead of separating normally, the mitotic spindle appeared to continue to lengthen despite failing to fully separate the two copies of DNA, producing an arched shape until eventually snapping in the middle. This "arched and snapped" appearance seemed to be unique to the ICRF-193 treated cells.
Researchers can utilize this "arched and snapped" appearance to look for other drugs that affect fission yeast proteins in the same manner. The replication machinery and DNA-bound proteins of fission yeast are highly conserved and thus remarkably similar to other organisms, including humans. Because of this similarity, drugs that affect these proteins in fission yeast are likely to affect the related highly active proteins in human cancers. This research makes it plausible to use fission yeast in the place of human cells in the discovery process of novel cancer drugs.
There are many disadvantages to using human cells in the initial stages of creating a new therapy. Scientists often have to test a large number of compounds in order to find one that is effective against a particular target. Human cells are costly to take care of and require a lot of time and specific conditions in order to grow. According to Dr. Nakazawa, "fission yeast is a relatively fast, easy to use model system that is low cost," making it advantageous for use in drug screens. Time and cost are often major hurdles in the process of drug development, so any discoveries that expedite the process can help get the next cancer cure in the hands of patients sooner.
A team of physicists at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST) has predicted the existence of a new kind of spin liquid. A spin liquid is an exotic phenomenon that intrigues scientists: it is a magnetic material in which the magnetism of the atoms fluctuates continuously between different directions. Their theoretical discovery found confirmation through computer simulation. Notably, this mathematical description of a spin liquid shares important similarities with a gauge symmetry, which is a key element in the way physics describes the world. The researchers, all from OIST Theory of Quantum Matter Unit, published their results in Nature Communications.
Spin liquids are well known to physicists. The name 'spin liquid' is misleading, as a spin liquid is a solid that is liquid only from the point of view of the directions of its atoms' magnetism. The direction of an atom's magnetism is defined by the magnetism that originates from the rotation of the electrons around the atom's nucleus. In a visual representation of an atom, the magnetism's direction can be drawn as an arrow, which points in a specific direction of space.
At high temperature, the arrows inside a given material typically point in random directions: the magnetism of each atom is different. When the material is cooled down, the arrows usually arrange themselves in a repeating pattern. A spin liquid is a specific type of magnetic material in which the atoms' directions keep fluctuating even at low temperatures.
Spin liquids are hard to pin down because they lack the regular repeating patterns of other magnets. Being able to predict the existence of a new kind of spin liquid is then a very important achievement. The new spin liquid theoretically discovered by the scientists is characterized by a unique internal structure describing how the magnetism of each atom relates to the magnetism of those around it.
The finding is significant because there is a strong relationship between the scientists' mathematical description of the spin liquid and a gauge symmetry. Gauge symmetries are the way in which physicists understand the fundamental forces of nature, such as electromagnetism. Finding gauge symmetries in spin liquids is interesting because it reveals deep connections between different branches of physics. These connections have historically fostered new understandings of how we interpret reality from the physicists' point of view.
The Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (沖縄科学技術大学院大学 Okinawa Kagaku Gijutsu Daigakuin Daigaku?, OIST) is an interdisciplinary graduate school located in Onna, Okinawa Prefecture, Japan.
The school offers a 5-year PhD program in Science. Over half of the faculty and students are recruited from outside Japan, and all education and research is conducted entirely in English.
The university has no departments—OIST researchers conduct multi-disciplinary research in neuroscience, mathematical and computational sciences, physics, chemistry, integrative biology and molecular, cell, and developmental biology. The university received accreditation on November 1, 2011, and began classes in September 2012.
OIST relies on public subsidies paid by the Japanese government. The government subsidy for OIST comes in two areas: a subsidy for operations and a subsidy for facilities.

Are there any suggestions to reduce any possible complications? There is a possibilityn I will need to fly 10 days post op. Or 17 at the most.
How Long After Liposuction on Abs and Back Before Can I Fly (8 Hour Trip)?
Doctor Answers 2
Major complication is deep vein thrombosis - safe to fly 2-3 days post treatment
The major complication with flying after liposuction is the development of a deep vein thrombosis. A liposuction procedure performed with tumescent anesthesia usually only requires one to wear an abdominal compression garment for 2-3 days.
Liposuction performed under general anesthesia usually requires one to wear an abdominal compression garment for several weeks. Wearing an abdominal compression garment will impede blood flow from the legs to the heart and may increase the risk of developing deep vein thrombosis.
As long as you take a baby aspirin once a day and wear properly fitted graduated compression stockings on the legs, you should be able to safely fly 8 hours in 2-3 days once the abdominal compression garment is removed and no longer required.
Web reference: http://www.gbkderm.com
Flying after liposuction surgery
This really depends on the patient's medical history, age, how much liposuction was performed, etc. I have patients who fly in for surgery and then fly home within a week but you should get clearance from your surgeon since he/she knows your medical history and the extent of your liposuction procedure.

The Smurfs 2

Ever since The Smurfs—the Belgian TV and cartoon franchise—kicked off in 1958, the little blue creatures have gained an enviable international presence. The Smurfs have been on money. They've been featured in a UNICEF ad campaign in which the peaceful Smurf village is indiscriminately carpet bombed. And in summer 2011, the big-screen Smurfs adaptation, starring Neil Patrick Harris and Sofía Vergara, was a box-office hit; the Smurfs even got to ring the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange.
And with The Smurfs 2 hitting theaters this week, it's a good time to revisit another important piece of the Smurf legacy: The lovable blue-skinned animals might also be rabid totalitarians and raging anti-Semites.

#RoyalBaby was born today. The famous spawn of the United Kingdom's Prince William and Duchess Kate Middleton, #RoyalBaby is a bundle of joy who is supposedly worth roughly $380 million in stimulus to the British economy. There has been much international anticipation over the birthing of #RoyalBaby. For instance, here is the Google Trends graph of "Royal Baby" searches over the past 90 days:
"Given the special relationship between us, the American people are pleased to join with the people of the United Kingdom as they celebrate the birth of the young prince," Barack and Michelle Obama said in a statement. "Barring revolution in Britain," the BBC wrote, "the shape and trajectory of [this baby's] life is, in every real sense, inescapable. This is a child whose destiny is to inherit one of the oldest hereditary thrones in the world."
Hereditary throne, indeed. So in honor of the latest addition to the British royal family—a bloodline marked by tabloid fame, generations of autocracy, and Nazi sympathies—here is Mother Jones' #RoyalBaby Playlist.

Van Dyke Parks, rendered.
Van Dyke Parks
Songs Cycled
Bella Union
Boasting a lengthy résumé spanning nearly a half-century, Van Dyke Parks has written and recorded with Brian Wilson; played, produced, or arranged for everyone from The Byrds and Harry Nilsson to Rufus Wainwright and Joanna Newsom; and written music for film and TV. But his greatest achievement may be his determinedly noncommercial solo albums.
Even in the anything-goes 1960s, when he released his first LP, Song Cycle, the Mississippi-born Parks was too out-there to command a large following, thanks to his eccentric stew of old-timey parlor music, classical strains (Aaron Copland et al.), Caribbean spice and all-around genial oddness.
Songs Cycled, his first solo release in 15 years, finds Parks' magic undimmed. His sprightly voice suggesting a loopy Southern aristocrat, Parks ponders injustice ("Money Is King"), revisits a shimmering gem from his debut ("The All Golden") and offers a hallucinatory steel drum interlude that could be "The Nutcracker" by way of Trinidad. However strange he may seem at first, Parks' uniquely offbeat sounds quickly cast their own satisfying spell. Don't miss out on this true original, who may just be a genius.
Otis Redding
The Complete Stax/Volt Singles Collection
Shout! Factory
Is Otis Redding the greatest soul singer of all time? Fans of James Brown or Solomon Burke, among others, might disagree, but the Big O certainly delivered the goods. There's no better place to explore the legacy of the Georgia great than this irresistible three-disc, 70-track set, which includes every original A- and B-side in its original mono mix (a recent trend in reissues that makes sense, since '60s singles were targeted to AM radio).
While casual fans may already know "Respect" (which predates Aretha's cover), Redding's rowdy version of the Stones' "Satisfaction" or "(Sittin' on) The Dock of the Bay," his biggest hit, released shortly after his death in 1967, there's a wealth of other down-home R&Br to discover here.
Backed by his ferocious Stax colleagues, including Booker T and the MGs and the horns of the Mar-Keys, Redding always went full-force, whether revamping the Sinatra standard "Try a Little Tenderness," shouting "Look at the Girl" or sparring playfully with frequent duet partner Carla Thomas on "Tramp." A compilation of his lesser-known flip-sides alone would have been a godsend. The Complete Stax/Volt Singles Collection is essential.
For a different take on Redding, check out Lonely and Blue: The Deepest Soul of Otis Redding (Stax/Volt), a new compilation intended to look like an old album, that emphasizes his knack for gritty ballads.

In the just released action-comedy RED 2, the main characters—an offbeat band of retired Western intelligence operatives and assassins—invade the Iranian embassy in London, take part in a large-scale firefight and car chase, and end up killing probably dozens of Revolutionary Guard troops who happen to be stationed at the embassy.
Assuming RED 2 takes place in present day, the scene takes place at a fictional embassy. In November 2011, the British ordered the immediate closure of the Iranian embassy in London after the British embassy in Tehran was stormed by demonstrators. (The embassy sequence was shot at Fishmongers' Hall in London.)
So, what does the Iranian government have to say about Bruce Willis, Helen Mirren, John Malkovich, and Mary-Louise Parker starting a fictional bloodbath on Iranian soil? It may seem petty and beneath the dignity of a foreign government to address something like this, but keep in mind that last year, Iranian officials plotted to sue Hollywood because they thought Best Picture winner Argo was an "unrealistic portrayal" of their country. Years before that, Zack Snyder's hit action film 300 elicited similar emotions from state authorities.
For the time being, it looks like they might let this one slide. Officials at Iran's Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance and the office of the president had no comment on John Malkovich invading their fictional embassy (although one did say that he would look into it).
The RED 2 publicity team for Summit Entertainment, the studio distributing the film, could not be reached for comment.
RED 2 gets a wide release on Friday, July 19. The film is rated PG-13 for pervasive action and violence including frenetic gunplay, and for some language and drug material. Click here for local showtimes and tickets.

Before Nelson Mandela celebrated his birthdays with UN declarations and millions of singing children, he spent 27 years in prison, 18 of them on South Africa's infamous Robben Island. In spite of his confinement and disappearance from the world stage (the apartheid government even banned his image), Mandela inspired a generation of activists and artists inside and outside of South Africa.
On the former South African president and anti-apartheid leader's 95th birthday, let's revisit some of the songs that helped put—and keep—Mandela in the minds of millions.
1. The Special AKA: "Nelson Mandela"
This super-popular and catchy protest song was released in 1984, when Mandela was nearly 20 years into his life sentence. Here it's performed with a little backup from Elvis Costello and the English Beat's Ranking Roger and Dave Wakeling.
2. Hugh Masekela, "Mandela (Bring Him Back Home)"
Masekela's wish to see the imprisoned Mandela "walking down the street" was all the more poignant considering that the South African trumpeter had been living in exile in the United States since the early '60s.
3. Brenda Fassie, "Black President"
Fassie, a South African pop sensation who died in 2004, sang this tribute in 1990, four years before Mandela was elected South Africa's first black (and democratically elected) president.
4. Johnny Clegg & Savuka, "Asimbonanga"
Mandela's absence was also lamented in the South African singer's 1986 hit, whose title and chorus means "we have not seen him" in Zulu.
5. Salif Keita, "Mandela"
"You shed tears for others," sings the Malian star in this 1995 tribute.
6. Vusi Mahlasela, "When You Come Back"
Before it was used to promote the 2010 FIFA World Cup, Mahlasela's 1994 song alluded both to Mandela and Vuyisile Mini, an African National Congress activist and songwriter who was executed in 1964.
7. Miriam Makeba, "Ndodemnyama (Beware, Verwoerd)"
This 1950s song written by Mini doesn't mention Mandela, but it warns Hendrik Verwoerd, the architect of apartheid, of the struggle to come.
8. Artists United Against Apartheid, "Sun City"
Mandela gets a quick visual shout-out in this '80s-tastic video. (And see if you can spot Run D.M.C., Lou Reed, and Keith Richards among the many musical celebrities crammed into this single penned by Little Steven Van Zandt.)
9. Dishonorable mention: Nickelback, "If Everyone Cared"
There have been some crummy songs about Mandela, too. This one has nothing to say about Mandela (or anything for that matter), but it does shamelessly include him in its video.

Barack Obama has been in a bunch of Hollywood movies. Granted, it's generally in the form of archival footage, often played out of context. In Zero Dark Thirty, you can see him talking about torture. In Pacific Rim, he's at a White House press conference taking questions on the alien invaders. In Battleship, the president is visible on a jumbotron telling America to calm down (again, on the subject of alien invasion). In last year's Total Recall remake, his face is on the dollar bills of the future. And now, he's also being used to promote Bruce Willis and Helen Mirren's latest action movie.
The ad campaign for RED 2—the sequel to 2010's darkly humorous surprise hit RED—is mostly what you'd expect for a mid-summer release: the standard social-media push and loud commercials emphasizing the explosions, the guns, the globetrotting CIA mayhem, and the all-star cast that includes John Malkovich, Mary-Louise Parker, Anthony Hopkins, and Lee Byung-hun. (The film is directed by Galaxy Quest helmer Dean Parisot and written by the Hoeber brothers.)
But on July 10 (just nine days before the film's wide release), American TV stations began airing a new ad titled "Barack Obama: NSA Code RED," set to the hard-rock edge of AC/DC's 1980 song "Shoot to Thrill":
The description on the YouTube version, which currently has over 26,000 views, begins by paraphrasing President Obama: "'These folks keep America safe.' Watch this video to meet the real heroes protecting us." Here's the trailer promoted on RED 2's official Twitter account:
They don't listen to your calls or read your emails, but watch what they'll do to save the world. #RED2 on July 19. http://t.co/XpKQp4QIFt

They don't listen to your calls or read your emails, but watch what they'll do to save the world. #RED2 on July 19. http://t.co/XpKQp4QIFt
The TV spot splices together sound bites from Obama's June 7 remarks on the National Security Agency/Edward Snowden controversy with a few bullet-riddled and goofy clips from the new film. For instance, the part when Obama says, "the people...involved in America's national security...take this work very seriously," is paired with the image of Helen Mirren firing two handguns out of both sides of a very expensive sports car.

Here he trains his revisionist eye on a current artist, turning down the heat in similar fashion on a dozen Queens of the Stone Age originals with the approval of Queens mastermind Josh Homme (who is not otherwise involved).
Nouvelle Vague albums sometimes seem like high-concept (albeit amusing) gimmickry, but Uncovered works nicely. In contrast to the Queens' hard-rock stomp, the understated arrangements underscore the dramatic melodies, while the 11 women enlisted to sing mostly evoke a sense of alluring retro cool, even if Libaux's mellow settings tend to blur the chanteuses' differences.
In any case, standouts include Guatemala's Gaby Moreno, Ambrosia Parsley of Shivaree, Iceland's Emiliana Torrini (sounding less Bjork-like than she often does on her own albums), and especially Inara George (The Bird and the Bee). George is the only vocalist who performs on two tracks, and her studied detachment on "No One Knows" and "Hangin' Tree" might induce chills.
Libaux could probably have a field day with other unlikely source material. What's next? A Hank Williams tribute maybe?

A little over a year ago, the first season of The Newsroom premiered on HBO. Here are the 21 adjectives and four adverbs I used to describe it:
Whiny, sententious, stale, tedious, rambling, unamusing, flat, ho-hum, childish, embarrassing, jejune, twitchy-eyed, daffy, obvious, frustrating, self-congratulatory, left-leaning, emotionally manipulative, alarmingly candy-ass, maddeningly idealistic, and arduously quirky.

Having had nearly 13 months to reflect on season one, I stand by all 25 words. But here are two words to describe the second season of writer Aaron Sorkin's HBO series: Markedly improved.
To everyone else who devoutly hate-watched the 10-episode first season (including those who don't work in news and media), I am just as surprised as you are. It appears that Sorkin wasn't lying when he indicated he had taken note of last year's tidal wave of criticism and made tweaks to the show.

"Sarah's Key" looks at Holocaust's lasting impact
By Bob Tourtellotte
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Seven decades have passed since French police arrested thousands of Parisian Jews and sent them to death camps in an incident known as the Vel' d'Hiv roundup, but for some, the guilt still lingers.
French film "Sarah's Key," which opens in major U.S. cities on Friday after touching audiences in many European countries, looks at the notion of national remorse and its impact not only on the people who lived through it, but their families and offspring who, in many cases, never even knew it happened.
Director Gilles Paquet-Brenner is loathe to call "Sarah's Key" a Holocaust movie in the vein of Steven Spielberg's "Schindler's List," for instance, because his film is not so much about the event as its impact on a contemporary family. And while Vel' d'Hiv took place during World War II, genocide still happens in modern times in places such as Rwanda.
"Young people can relate to it because history is not represented as this abstract thing you have to learn in books," Paquet-Brenner told Reuters. "They understand that something which seemed so far from them could be right around the corner."
It's a scary thought, but one that "Sarah's Key" puts front-and-center for today's audiences.
The movie is adapted from the French novel "Elle s'appelait Sarah," which had an English-language version that became a New York Times bestseller.
It begins with the July, 1942 roundup at Vel' d'Hiv and focuses on one family, their 10-year-old daughter Sarah and her brother whom she locks in a closet to hide from the French police.
Sarah escapes from the camp where she is sent only to discover the horror of what the French, under Nazi rule, did to their own people and Sarah's family, in particular. Continued...

A light day today as we prepare for a weekend full of matches across the world. More poor refereeing (this time in Africa), a critical look at MLS youth development, a review of what was at one time a "Cinderella story" and more. Enjoy:
Almunia For England? [When Saturday Comes]
Hoffenheim's Cinderella Story Turns Sour [Reuters]
How football can bring hope to Uganda [Guardian]
A look at a Dutch sports broadcaster, and his tribute [Financial Times]
Counting penalties: easier said than done for referee in Malawi [Unprofessional Foul]
Thoughts on Almunia playing for England? Agree with Schoen's take on developing youth players in the US? Sad to see Hoffenheim fall?
Share your thoughts below.
Lletget has been tracked by West Ham for a while now. If he signs with any pro club I'm sure he'd chose West Ham over MLS.
My problem with people like schoen and other channels is that they show zero coverage of US soccer or MLS. Maybe these u17 in the US haven't signed with a pro team because they need to get their high school diploma!! unlike their south american counterparts. Secondly, I doubt very much any of those kids could come in and play right away, this league is different,its not bus rides, its plane trips and you've got to be able to handle the rigors, thats something I think a lot of people don't factor in when they talk about the league. I would value this guys opinion if he actually showed he gave a sh** about the league to begin with.
The Malawian report is a disgrace and aspires to Fox News standards in ethics and reporting.
You should be ashamed to have linked to it, and you should remove it immediately.
It makes me doubt if Mr. Rubio reads the links he suggests; for if he does, he strikes me as a morally confused person.
It's funny how much "soul-searching" has to be done by countries like England about possibly having a non-English born player on their team.
Whereas we have such a rich tradition of immigration to our country, we'll happily take anyone without batting an eye. (*cough*Regis*cough*).
4Now, get off your high horse. That report was partly tongue-in-cheek.
DC Josh
It's obvious England needs to look outside their footy box at different sports other than those in the UK. They don't even show other soccer leagues on tv other than their own. If the youth grew up with something other than foot-eye coordination they would produce quality goalies. They haven't had a world class goalie since Seaman made the ponytail/mustache combo cool. It also doesn't help that all the imports are taking England-born goalie spots in the Championship and Premier League.
They have some of the best field players in the world, but have mediocre to above average goalies. If the goalies could use their feet to save shots they would be world class *please note the sarcasm*.
I agree with Shoen and with Alex, concerning plane trips and such. I would like to see these kids signed earlier and getting rid of the reserve league was a mistake. However, wasn't the reserve league pulled for not only money but because it was disorganised and uneven and just a mess in general?
"Is there anyone on the continent of Africa who can do simple addition?"
Nick, does that account for the "partly"?
I'll come down off my high horse provided disembark from your SUV.
sean monaghan
"Is there anyone on the continent of Africa who can do simple addition?"
Does anybody else see something wrong with that?
Jacob A.
I would value this guys opinion if he actually showed he gave a sh** about the league to begin with.
Posted by: Alex | May 01, 2009 at 06:31 PM
Alex, the dude hosted the show "American Soccer", which was for a time the only weekly show that did in-depth MLS wrap-up, until it got cancelled for bismally low ratings that made it too expensive production wise to be worth it. Also, he doesn't do MLS games because his network has no rights to them. The dude "gives a sh**", that's why he's sort of calling out the way we do things, his desire to see us improve.

Global Price Drop -- Global Village Communication recently reduced the access charges for its $2,000 OneWorld Internet 28800 product see TidBITS-258). The original hourly charge of $8.95 has dropped to $3.95, thanks to the addition in July of a nationwide access network like SprintNet or the CompuServe Packet Network (until July, the lower rates apply to the current 800 number access method). The per-user charge remains in place, starting at $49 for 10 users and increasing with additional users. In addition, the company now offers a $249 per month flat rate option to benefit high-volume users of the plug-and-play network Internet connection device. Customers may opt to switch plans any time during a month, although the switch then applies for six months before the customer can switch back. Although the price drop is welcome for new users and may make an Internet connection via the OneWorld Internet more reasonable for some small offices, we suspect the $249 per month flat rate option will be popular, given that "high-volume" equals out to only slightly less than four hours per day, which is nothing when you consider the amount of time necessary to download something like the 5.2 MB System 7.5 Update over a relatively slow 28,000 bps connection, even if you ignore the time spent trying to connect to overloaded servers.

I just love this program
That looks great!
How 'bout a color change
Thanks PerfectJewel... for the kind words. You are always encouraging.
How 'bout a color change and even a shield shape. I'm making my own dingbats to use in this program. This was my first try and I think the possiblities are there. :;yessir:
You are incredibly talented and I'm happy to learn from you. They're both wonderful.
Is that part of the Logo Creator or did you import your own image?
I just bought the LC and just made my first logo. It definitely has great potential. Great job you did there by the way . . .
Coat of Arms Image
The image was made in TLC.
I did however create my own type font with the elements you see. I then installed the "heraldry font" into my system font folder. Once the font was in my system I was able to access the new font from TLC. Although I did create my own font here, there are many art type fonts available free on the web. Look in this fourm as well for resources and ideas.... : )
A new banner
an a new color scheme
Much as with my own, I always love the last one I did best. With yours it's hard to pick though, they're all so wonderful
Right Colors?
Speaking of color changes, can any of you give me some other color combo ideas? I love this font, but am tired of the same color sheme. Please Help!
While that font might be a little thin for most applications.. why not try inserting an fireworks, lightning or fire image into it.
Separate names with a comma.

the velcro holster coveres the trigger so what's the big deal?
This is a discussion on Maxpedition w/ Cocked and Locked 1911? within the Defensive Carry Holsters & Carry Options forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I am quite happy with my Maxpedition Jumbo and would like to use it when it would be inconvenient to carry a large pistol due ...
I am quite happy with my Maxpedition Jumbo and would like to use
it when it would be inconvenient to carry a large pistol due to light
cover garments. My Commander-length 1911 fits fine, but I don't
have a lot of confidence in the standard velcro holster sold by
Maxpedition. I don't have one, so I can't be certain, but it does not look
like it provides enough protection for a pistol carried condition 1. Would
those of you who own them agree? Would there be any problems with
putting velcro on a fuller-coverage holster and sticking that one in instead?
the velcro holster coveres the trigger so what's the big deal?
I have one and agree with tennvol...it covers the trigger and holds the pistol securely in place so it's always in a good position for drawing.
It's your money, so if you'd feel more comfortable with the solution you propose, go with it. I just don't see it as necessary.
"It's a big gun when I carry it, it is also a big gun when I take it out Clint Smith
Blackhawk makes some velcro holsters for 5.11 gear and such. Personally, if the gun doesn't move around, I wouldn't worry either.
"In matters of style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock." Thomas Jefferson
Nemo Me Impune Lacesset
Blackhawk sells a velcro pad that fits the CQC holster... I use this combination to add the finger safety/release of the CQC to my Maxpedition gun pouch.
Here's what it looks like with a Glock:
I have the same set-up for my SIG.
ALWAYS carry! - NEVER tell!
"A superior Operator is best defined as someone who uses his superior
judgement to keep himself out of situations that would require a display of his
superior skills."
You are certainly welcome to attach velcro to another holster of your choosing if you want a bigger and bulkier holster.
The Universal Holster made by Maxpedition has a couple of functions.
1) It totally covers the trigger/trigger guard, thus it is totally 100% safe
2) It is skeletonized obviously to be useful with a variety of weapons
3) The skeletonized feature also allows you get a good solid grasp on the grip of your gun when it is placed inside a small space like inside any of their gear bags, packs, attache's, or whatever. When you reach for it, you're grabbing your gun and not the holster.
When the gun is inside a small compartment, you don't want excess bulk or excess things getting in the way of your draw. The cocked and locked 1911 is no problem with holsters of this design.
There is some method to their madness in making the Universal Holster the way they did.
Btw... It's not a holster you'll be wearing on your belt or likewise. It's a special purpose holster.
Semper Fi
"The gun is the great equalizer... For it is the gun, that allows the meek to repel the monsters; Whom are bigger, stronger and without conscience, prey on those who without one, would surely perish."
Thanks for all of the advice. It sounds like the Maxpedition holster
is more solid than it looks. I'll give it a shot and if it does not meet
my expectations I'll try a CQC with a velcro pad.
Thanks again.

Cooper University Hospital, Camden, NJ
Though Neisseria sicca is part of the normal oral flora, in rare instances it can be a serious pathogen causing endocarditis, meningitis, osteomyelitis, etc. Neisseria sicca endocarditis is characterized by large vegetations and destruction of the valve. Of the various Neisseria species, Neisseria sicca most often results in embolic complications. Since the first report of Neisseria sicca endocarditis in 19181, only 15 other cases have been reported (available upon request) and the last was 6 years ago2. We present a 17th case of endocarditis due to Neisseria sicca, accompanied by multiple embolic complications.
A 39-year-old male without any history of substance use presented with "flu-like" symptoms for one week, mental status changes, and sudden left-sided weakness for one day. He was lethargic and blood pressure was 90/40 mm Hg. Non-blanching, 1cm, purplish macular lesions on the skin, icterus, and conjunctival petechaie were noted. Cardiac examination revealed no murmurs. Left hemiparesis was present. CAT scan of the brain showed multiple non-enhancing parenchymal focal lesions (see Figure). Shortly after admission, he became more lethargic, developed increased respiratory distress, and required intubation. Chest X-ray showed bilateral diffuse alveolar infiltrates. On transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) left ventricular size was normal and left ventricle function was moderately depressed. There was a sclerotic bicuspid aortic valve with a mobile vegetation on the right cusp prolapsing into the left ventricle (see Figure). Blood cultures grew Neisseria sicca, sensitive to ceftriaxone. He was treated with IV ceftriaxone, and carious teeth were extracted. TEE 8 days later showed a calcified vegetation (whose size had increased) prolapsing in the outflow tract. Severe aortic insufficiency was noted. He improved with intravenous antibiotics and was extubated within 8 days. Three days later, left calf and toes soreness developed, with increasing purpura. Magnetic resonance angiography of the left lower extremity showed significant thrombus in the left distal common iliac artery, left external iliac artery, and left hypogastric artery. Left iliac embolectomy and excision of vegetation were done, and a St. Jude's mechanical aortic valve was placed. He was discharged home on intravenous ceftriaxone and warfarin. Six weeks later, sharp epigastric pain and vomiting developed. Right upper quadrant abdominal ultrasound showed a hepatic artery mycotic aneurysm with compression of gallbladder, common bile duct, and splenic vein. CAT scan showed an infra-renal abdominal aortic dissection into the left common iliac artery and a hepatic artery mycotic aneurysm with common bile duct obstruction and portal/splenic vein thrombosis from mechanical compression. Under ultrasound guidance, thrombin was injected into the pseudoaneurysm via the celiac artery. The patient was finally discharged home on intravenous antibiotics. He was doing well on outpatient follow-up.
Neisseria species other than Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitides are generally not considered pathogenic. Endocarditis due to Neisseria sicca may be associated with serious embolic complications including cerebral, hepatic, and peripheral embolism. Treatment should include a 6-week or longer course of intravenous antibiotics and possibly surgical correction of underlying structural heart disease and dental extraction.
Neisseria sicca isolation from blood should be taken seriously rather than attributed to contamination, and should prompt evaluation for possible endocarditis. The index of suspicion should be greater in patients using intravenous drugs and in those with structural heart disease or dental disease. Secondly, if patients with any embolic phenomena or endocarditis have a blood culture that reveals Neisseria sicca, it should be treated as the responsible organism unless proven otherwise.
