Webstor came the quickest, and got my hopes up for quicker shipping times with the subscription. Hopefully Teela/Zodak are a blip with the switch to digital river, and quicker shipping times will return with Scare Glow!

Taste of the Township a delicious success
"It was a who's who of Peters Township," said Pier Lee, Peters Township Public Library director of the crowd of more than 430 at the 12th Annual Taste of the Township on April 19, a benefit for the library.
Valley Brook Country Club was packed as guests sampled everything from appetizers like bacon-wrapped sausage-filled dates from Bella Sera and mini stuffed grape leaves by Freddie's II to main courses that included Parmesan-crusted chicken from Giant Eagle, Cajun salmon from The Capstone Grill and even pasta made in a wheel of cheese right in front of guests by Arlecchino Ristorante. Dessert samplings were courtesy of Cookies by Susan, Edible Arrangements, Juniper Grill, Bethel Bakery and Dozen Bake Shop, which is slated to open in June at the courtyard in Donaldson's Crossroads.
Nearly 30 area restaurant hot spots were on hand. A Chinese auction and raffle added to the funds raised, totalling more than $33,000, a figure Lee said she is "very happy with."

Survey: Lebo deer population increased dramatically
For the past year, Mt. Lebanon commissioners have heard an increasing amount of reports from residents that involved incidents with deer.
But at the commission's June 24 discussion session, commissioners got to see on paper just how much the deer population has increased in Mt. Lebanon.
Mt. Lebanon Public Works Director Tom Kelley presented the results of a deer survey that occurred earlier this year, and Mt. Lebanon Police Chief Coleman McDonough reported his findings of a two-year long study that recorded incidents that involved deer where Mt. Lebanon Police were called to the scene.
Kelley said the survey occurred from 6-9 p.m. on Feb. 25 during a single infrared flyover from the Boise, Idaho-based company Vision Air Research. The survey cost $5,640.
The group counted 342 deer, or 57 deer per square mile, during the flyover. In comparison, a deer survey was done in 2006 that reported a total of 90 deer, or 15 deer per square mile, in Mt. Lebanon.
"When done during the winter, air surveys are very accurate," Kelley said.
McDonough's findings were from a study that occurred from May 2011 to May 2013. The study tracked how many incidents and police calls involved residents and deer. McDonough said an incident involving a deer ranges from car accidents, dead or injured deer being reported on the road or even deer invading a resident's yard.
According to the report, in October 2011, there were 15 deer incidents reported, while in October 2012, there were 35 incidents reported. In May 2012, there were seven incidents reported and in May of this year, there were 36 incidents reported. McDonough said it costs $76 per incident when the municipality's animal control unit is called to the scene of an incident involving a deer.
"I think we have a lot of deer in Mt. Lebanon," McDonough said. "The question is, do we reduce the number or stabilize it?"
While commissioners were alarmed at the numbers from the reports, they expressed concerns for other reasons.
"We're not only putting our residents at risk, we're putting our public safety officers at risk, too," commissioner Kristen Linfante said. "They're driving down the roads at high speeds. It's only a matter of time before a major disaster occurs."

Badoo Reaches 150 Million Users Worldwide
LONDON, May 5, 2012: Badoo, the world's largest social network for meeting new people, today announced it has reached 150 million registered users, a significant growth milestone for the company. Badoo is now one of the top five social networking sites globally, according to both Alexa and comScore, and a leader in the rapidly-growing "social discovery" market, which focuses on meeting new people via mobile apps.
Badoo Growth By The Numbers:
- More than 60% growth year on year (Source: comScore)
- More than 35 million active users per month worldwide (Source: comScore)
- While Southern Europe and Latin America continue to show strong growth, the US, UK, Germany and Russia are growing fast, and are now in Badoo's top ten markets worldwide
- Continued profitability and annual run rate of $150 million
- Badoo now adds more than 125,000 new users every day
- Mobile usage has grown by 100% since November 2011 - with Badoo more than doubling mobile revenues in that period
- Badoo's mobile apps have made significant gains in the US over the last six months:
- Badoo's Android app is now one of the top 10 most popular apps (#7) for social networking, up from #35 in November 2011 (Source: Distimo)
- Badoo's iPhone app is now a top 25 social networking app, up from #60 in November 2011 (Source: Distimo)
- Badoo is regularly a top 5 grossing iPhone app around the world (Source: AppAnnie)
- Badoo is now used in 40 different languages in 180 countries
- Badoo is actively hiring - its team has grown by 15% in the past quarter
International Growth Trends:
International expansion has been a key priority for Badoo in 2012, particularly into markets such as the US and the UK, Germany and Eastern Europe.
With an official US launch in March 2012, Badoo has already attracted more than eight million users in this important market, and is gathering significant momentum in major metros such as New York (where Badoo just launched its first advertising campaign), Miami, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston and others.
Product Innovation Leads to Mobile and Web Growth:
Badoo has seen rapid growth across all of its mobile platforms, including iOS, Android and Mobile Web. In markets such as the US, Badoo is now seeing more new registrations on mobile than on Web, with 68% of new users coming to the site via mobile over the past six months.
Badoo led the industry in developing an innovative freemium model for its web and mobile apps, and its iPhone app regularly appears in the Top Five Grossing Apps ranking in multiple markets around the world. (Source: AppAnnie)
It has also recently introduced new free features, including the successful launch of "Interests", where users can share what they're interested in, and which was developed with the new US and UK markets in mind, although it has also found huge popularity in all other markets.
Executive Team Expansion and Recruitment of Key Talent:
Badoo has continued its expansion with a number of senior executive appointments, including former Google executive Benjamin Ling, who was recently appointed Chief Operating Officer, and who joins other former Google executives on the management and product engineering teams. Benjamin will oversee product, engineering, business operations, partnerships and corporate development, based at the company's London office.
Badoo is hiring across key geographies, including the UK, US, Russia, Asia and Latin America, as it continues its international expansion.
Key Quotes:
"Badoo has grown fast in many major markets, and has now established itself as the world's largest social network for meeting new people," said Andrey Andreev, founder of Badoo. "Our mission is to make it as easy as possible to bring people together, so they can chat, make friends, date and have fun. And there is a massive opportunity to do this on a global scale."
"Hitting the 150 million user milestone is a testament to our success in new and existing markets, and across the mobile platform, and we're excited about continuing our momentum in 2012."

German Fest comes to South Hills
A taste of Teutonic culture will be at the forefront of the first German Fest to be held rain or shine Aug. 24 at The Crowne Plaza Hotel in Upper St. Clair.
Erik Wittmann, president of the Pittsburgh chapter of DANK, the Deutch Amerikanischer National Kongress, said last year's convention was such a success that he was prompted to hold an annual event.
DANK was founded in Pittsburgh in 1981 to bring together Germans and Americans of German ancestry in Western Pennsylvania.
"People enjoyed it so much," Wittmann said of last year's convention, "that they wanted to extend it to an annual "mini Oktoberfest." Wittmann said he wanted to put a different spin on Oktoberfest and so he called the event a German Fest.
Geared toward families and people of all ages, German Fest starts at 2 and lasts until 11 p.m.
A buffet, served twice a day, features German fare, including schnitzel, bratwurst, German potatoes and black forest cake. German and local beer will be available. Straub beer will be the featured local beer because it is brewed in the traditional German way.
"We're trying to maintain the Germanic tradition," Wittmann said.
German performers including the Augsburg German Band and the Bavarian Schuhplattler Dancers will perform starting at 4 p.m.
The pool area of the hotel will be open with food and drink available and the hotel's ballroom will be an entertainment area with the buffet.
German Fest is open to the public.
"Anyone who "likes to have some fun and wants to enjoy Germanic culture is welcome, Wittmann stressed.
"Our membership is probably one quarter non-Germanic," added Wittmann of DANK Pittsburgh's chapter.
Tickets to the Aug. 24 German Fest will be available at the door the day of the event. Adult admission is $10 and discounted tickets are available for children under the age of 16.
Discounted rooms at the hotel will also be available for those who want to spend the night.
Proceeds from the German Fest are earmarked for the DANK Education Fund. The fund provides financial support to local schools that offer German classes and for scholarships for students focusing on a German language curriculum.

CARMICHAELS – In the 22 years since the Carmichaels Elementary Center opened its doors, there have been hundreds of students who have participated in the basketball program, and a record 160 students are participating this year.
"John Menhart was the physical education teacher when the elementary center opened. He started the program here. As you know, he is now the principal in the high school," said third-grade teacher Gary Block, who took over the program in 1994.
The current group of fourth- through sixth-graders who are playing basketball at Carmichaels compose an amazing 60 percent of all of the students in those grades.
"I am most proud of the fact that every single one of the boys and girls who are playing on our varsity teams played elementary basketball down here, every one of them," Block said. "If you look at the seventh-graders in the next four years, they were playing down here."
Throughout the history of the program there has not been a running tally kept of the kids who have played, but Block estimates it to be around 800. The record number this year is something of which he is very proud, he said.
Looking at the numbers it is obvious that not all of them will go on to play high school ball. Block notes that students who participate don't do it just to learn basketball skills. It is also an opportunity to get exercise and have fun.
School board president Tom Ricco can often be seen in the bleachers at the elementary games. He has had an older daughter, Caitlyn, go through the program and a second, Micaela, who is currently playing. His son, Nicholas, the youngest of his children, will be eligible to play next year.
Ricco cheered from the stands during a recent game and afterward he shared his thoughts about the basketball program.
"It is a good way to get our students involved in physical activity," Ricco said. "Many of them would be at home playing video games or watching television if this wasn't an option."
The league is coached by student volunteers in grades nine through 12 from Carmichaels Area High School. Girls coach the girls' teams and boys coach the boys' teams. After participating in closed practice sessions, per district policy for all sports, the coaches draft players to play on their teams.
There is no cost to participate or attend games. The school district picks up the costs associated with the program for T-shirts, referees, printing, etc. Teams are designated by the color of the shirts they are given. The league runs through the end of February, no later, so it does not interfere with the start of baseball and softball season. Despite weather, the games have to be played within this parameter, Block said.
The season culminates each year with the sixth-grade all-star games held before the annual basketball game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the coaches and faculty of Carmichaels Area School District. Block said it is a fun way to cap off the elementary basketball program for the youngsters before they move on to junior high.
"We always have great turnouts for our elementary games. Many nights we outdraw the high school games in attendance," Block said. "When you have this many kids and parents participating you have occasional problems but all-in-all, it goes pretty smoothly. For many of the players this may be their only option to ever play organized basketball."

A Charleroi semiprofessional wrestler was arrested Thursday on a warrant for allegedly assaulting a Southwest Regional police officer on New Year's Day.
Issac W. Lancaster, 23, of 1777 Grange Road, Charleroi, who has wrestled under the name "Kid Lightning," faces the charges stemming from an incident in Belle Vernon.
Police were called about 2 a.m. to 400 Bluff St. for a report of a man acting out of control. He had allegedly been drinking earlier in the night. While en route, police learned the man, later identified as Lancaster, was charging at Belle Vernon volunteer firefighters and emergency medical personnel who were trying to assist him.
Southwest police called for backup from Washington Township police. When Southwest officers arrived, they were told Lancaster lunged at Washington Officer Joshua Haines and tried to punch him. Lancaster also allegedly kicked Haines in the face and chest. When Haines tried to take him into custody, Lancaster allegedly continued resisting. The two wrestled in the yard and Haines had to use his Taser to subdue Lancaster.
They also learned Lancaster reportedly assaulted Michelle Kerr. She told police he put her in a submission hold and she lost consciousness.
While in an ambulance, Lancaster reportedly started spitting.
Lancaster was arraigned before District Judge Jesse Cramer on charges of aggravated assault of a police officer, aggravated assault, simple assault, reckless endangerment, resisting arrest, harassment and disorderly conduct. He was released on $10,000 unsecured bond.

Battle of the underachievers. A healthy fields and the raptors will try to go on a 3 game winning streak.
Battle of the underachievers. A healthy fields and the raptors will try to go on a 3 game winning streak.
Trying to slow down Iriving will not be an easy task at all for Calderon. Also won't be easy for Val/whoever playing C to battle with Varejao. Let's hope for more strong defense and a good night from the bench.
Irving has played pretty piss poor versus Toronto in his 4 career games.
Varejao is going to be a good test for JV. If he can keep him off the offensive glass = success.
For some reason Jose has always outplayed Kyrie. I actually do expect a good effort (and win) from the Raptors even if it is on the road.
Twitter - @thekid_it
Kyrie Irving gets annoyed when lanes are closed. He can shoot the ball, but he's better creating in space. Toronto bothered him last season with that.
Like everyone else is saying, I want to see JV vs. Varejao. Good, good test for him tonight. Also wanna see Davis on Thompson tonight.
Hope to chat with ya'll tonight on the game chat!
I think I have seen enough inspired play lately to expect a win... hope Im not deflated
The Baltic Beast is unstoppable!
Why isn't the game-chat working?! It's past 7!
Game hasnt started yet?
The Baltic Beast is unstoppable!
Tipping now. 99-93 Raps. Book it!
Just one year away... Bruno is almost here!
Calderon looks like crap tonight so far.
this whole game looks like crap so far
Cleveland is young and QUICK, boy! Doing alright only stuck 3 early.
Just one year away... Bruno is almost here!

Those who knew the pair killed in a tragic one-vehicle accident early Saturday morning made frequent references to the special friendship the two young men shared.
Joseph Michael Bowland, 20, of McDonald, and Michael Dillon Gregg, 22, of Bulger, died Saturday in the Weirton Medical Center in West Virginia, after the vehicle they were both passengers in rolled over on Joffre Bulger Road in Smith Township.
"They were best friends," said Mike Gregg, Michael Dillon Gregg's father, "and there's no doubt about that."
The elder Gregg said his son, who went by his middle name, and Bowland had been best friends since childhood, schoolmates at Fort Cherry High School and roommates in the same Bulger trailer housing development. They were so close that the families of the two men have decided to have a double viewing and funeral procession.
"It's what they would've wanted," the elder Gregg said.
Their families will receive friends from 4 to 8 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday in Nation Funeral Home, 220 East Lincoln Ave., McDonald. Services will be held at 11 a.m. Friday at Calvary Center of McDonald Presbyterian Church on West Lincoln Avenue.
Gregg and Bowland were killed when the vehicle they were both passengers in lost control on Joffre Bulger Road about 1:45 a.m. Saturday. Smith Township Police Chief Bernie LaRue said Gregg and Bowland were flown by helicopter to Weirton Medical Center, while two other men, Jordan David Jacobsen and Ben Bowman, both 19, were taken to Pittsburgh hospitals by ambulance.
Jacobsen, the driver of the overturned vehicle, was admitted to Allegheny General Hospital with minor injuries and Bowman was admitted to UPMC-Presbyterian hospital. Both men were released Monday.
LaRue said Pennsylvania State Police are assisting in the investigation. He did not rule out charges against either of the two survivors. Investigators are awaiting toxicology results.
Bowland had recently graduated with an associate's degree in electronic engineering from Pittsburgh Technical Institute and was a manager at Jimmy V's Pizza – his family's restaurant.
Kelly Bowland, Joseph Bowland's mother, said her son was eager to start his new job as a technician at Industrial Scientic soon. She said each of the young men were motivators for the other.
"Everybody loved them," Kelly Bowland said. "Him and Dillon kept each other going. Each one was such an overacheiver. He was loved by everyone."
Mike Gregg said Dillon was an avid sportsman and a hard worker. He was a bow and rifle hunter, trained as a mixed martial artist, was a semi-professional paintballer earlier in his youth and often competed in motocross races.
"Everything he did, he did to the fullest," Mike Gregg said. "Everything he did, he always made me proud."
Dillon Greg was a laborer at Howard Concrete Pumping in Cuddy since the age of 17.
"He had a 720 credit rating as a 22-year-old," the elder Gregg said. "How many kids you know could say that?"
Frank Howard, owner of Howard Concrete, said it was going to be hard for his company to get over the loss of Gregg.
"He's been with me pretty much since he was in high school," Howard said. "He's a good kid, a good laborer, has a good attitude, funny.
"He was just a good kid, man, and I'm just broke up over this."
Family and friends were organizing a vigil for the two at the scene of the crash near the Joffre Post Office 7 p.m. Tuesday night. Mike Gregg said he hoped the loss of his son could help encourage other young people to make better decisions.
"Take a moment and think before you act," Gregg said. "These kids just need to think about it before making a stupid mistake.
"There has to be some good in this. It was his time. But I'd like to turn this into a positive, and if one kid can be saved from learning from Dillon's mistake, then that's just another thing I'd be proud of."

This beautiful red Garnet is the traditional birthstone for the month of January. Garnets usually come in a deep red variation that is very pleasing to the eye. Garnets refer to more than ten different gemstones that have a similar chemical composition. Although red is the color most often that garnets come in, there are also sometimes variations of green, yellow, orange and earthy tones. Rhodolite is a purplish red. hessonite is the name for an orange, cinnamon, or pinkish variety. Tsavorite is the name given to dark green grossularite. Uvarovite and Demantoid are also green varieties. The color of a garnet tends to change when seen during daylight or artificial light, therefore making them even more sought after. Mohs scale of hardness, Garnet is 6.5-7.5. Garnets have excellent wearing qualities as a result of their hardness. Garnets come mostly from African countries, but also from India, Russia and Central and South America.

Washington police said it appears Nathan T. Roman and Michael Marchines were friends and had been for some time.
Investigators are now left to figure out what caused Marchines to shoot Roman outside Hungry Jose's on South Main Street about 2:30 a.m. Thursday and then turn the gun on himself less than an hour later.
Roman, 30, of Country Club Road, Washington, was pronounced dead of gunshot wounds to the chest and abdomen at Washington Hospital about an hour after he was shot, said Washington County Coroner Tim Warco. Marchines, 31, of East Prospect Avenue, Washington, was pronounced dead at 5:40 a.m. of a gunshot wound to the head, about two-and-a-half hours after he was found shot at the corner of South and South Main streets, about a block from where Roman was shot. Warco ruled Roman's death a homicide and Marchines' a suicide. Police found a handgun near Marchines' body.
City police Lt. Dan Stanek said the two men had been drinking with another friend inside Hungry Jose's.
"We do think there was an argument inside the bar," Stanek said, adding there was no report of any fisticuffs between the two men. "But at this point, we don't know what it was about."
All three men reportedly left the bar together. Stanek said the third man headed toward his vehicle.
"He saw (Marchines running away) and then found the other one (on the sidewalk)," Stanek said. "He never heard any gunshots."
Police were able to track Marchines' cellphone and knew he was in the area.
"We knew he was moving around in that area," Stanek said. "We had gone to that location to look for him and found him on the sidewalk in front of the Southside restaurant."
Police in the area also did not hear gunfire before finding Marchines' body.
As of late Thursday afternoon, Stanek had not had a chance to interview the third man. The detective dismissed reports that the argument was over concert tickets. Police also will check surveillance video from cameras in the area, as well as from cameras inside the bar.
Friends gathered at Hungry Jose's Thursday afternoon to express their sorrow.
One friend of the two men urged others to contribute to a memorial of flowers and trinkets in their honor outside Hungry Jose's.
"It's a plain memorial to the loss and to show respect to the individuals," said a man who would only identify himself at the bar as Rod and as a good friend of Marchines and Roman.
"They both were friendly people who were having a good time," Rod said. "It shouldn't have happened. It was almost like two brothers going at it. We're mourning the loss of both lives."
Washington Councilman Matt Staniszewski said he also knew the two men, that he had attended public school with Marchines and graduated from Washington High School with the his sister, Nicole.
"I was shocked this morning," Staniszewski said. "From what I hear, they were in Jose's and there were no altercations, no problems."
"They're both pretty well known in many circles. I bumped into them from time to time. They loved going to concerts,"said Washington attorney Peter Marcoline Jr., who once represented Marchines in a domestic case.
"I don't know what happened," Marcoline said. "I saw him two weeks ago. He was always a nice guy."
By lunchtime Thursday, the memorial outside Hungry Jose's consisted of a small bouquet of flowers, white carnations spread on the blacktop and a floral arrangement signed by someone who identified herself as a sibling of one of the deceased.
"My friend, my inspiration, but most importantly my brother, I will miss everything about you!" the woman wrote on a card attached to the flowers.

PITTSBURGH – Federal prosecutors announced Friday that 17 criminal cases had recently been brought in an effort to crack down on straw purchasers who illegally buy firearms for felons.
"This combined prosecution effort is a good illustration of the work that we do everyday together that reflects our unity in ridding the community of this problem," U.S. Attorney David Hickton said during a news conference.
He explained that the federal Department of Justice has been working with the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives as well as state and local law enforcement to take illegal firearms out of communities by expanding the net of defendants to include both those who use such weapons and those who facilitate their possession.
"If you straw purchase firearms or if you illegally possess a firearm, ATF will identify you, investigate you and incarcerate you," said Marcus Watson, the bureau's acting assistant special agent in charge.
According to Hickton, the typical straw purchaser is a person who is either engaged in illegal drug use or is a family member or significant other of a felon who cannot possess firearms legally. He said firearms that are traded for drugs are often either illegally purchased or stolen from legal gun owners.
"We can stop this process at the threshold if legal gun owners can do a better job securing their guns and engaging in more responsible gun ownership," Hickton said.
"If you have a legal gun with a concealed carry permit, you don't go to the Steelers game and leave it on your seat," he added, as an example.
Allegheny County Sheriff Bill Mullen said his office saw such permit applications increase from about 12,000 in 2011 to 15,700 last year.
"We haven't seen that dramatic of an increase since President Obama's first term when people thought he was going to confiscate all these weapons," Mullen said.
In Washington County, local guns shops had reported an uptick in firearms sales following the horrific Sandy Hook school shooting, but permit figures were not immediately available.
In addition to going after those who lie on applications, Mullen noted that his office has taken back hundreds of permits over the past several years from legal gun owners involved in irresponsible acts, such as drunkenly displaying firearms.
"It's not a right to carry a firearm concealed, but it is a privilege," Mullen said.
Out of the 17 cases, seven people are facing federal charges, including five with ties to Washington County.
Felix Cruz, 49, formerly of Houston, was indicted for possessing firearms in November 2011 after being convicted for a crime punishable by more than one year in prison. He faces a maximum sentence of up to 10 years in prison.
Linda Daugherty, 32, of Eighty Four; Jeffrey Cochenour, 41, of Charleroi; and Ronald DeGrange, 46, of Monongahela, were all indicted for providing false information while buying guns on behalf of other people in December 2011. DeGrange also failed to indicate that he was the user of a controlled substance. All three face a maximum sentence of up to five years in prison.
Michael Howard, 28, of Venetia, was indicted for providing false information two separate occasions in 2010 as well as possessing a firearm while using a controlled substance. He faces a maximum sentence of up to 20 years in prison.
Washington County District Attorney Gene Vittone commended Hickton, ATF and other officials for their efforts on the cases.
"We have a good working relationship working at the state federal and local level and these (cases) are the tangible fruits of that relationship," he said.
Those with information to share regarding the illegal purchase or possession of firearms are encouraged to call 1-800-ATF-GUNS.

1 Steaksmith at El Gancho
104-B Old Las Vegas Hwy.
Dinner at Steaksmith is a delightful indulgence in a nearly forgotten era. You'll never see this dining room profiled in Dwell or the entrées written up in Cooking Light. Which is just fine with us.
We come here to disobey our doctors' orders and live a little. We like to drink too many martinis and eat too many beer-battered shrimp in the lounge and then order gigantic slabs of prime rib. We ask for extra butter on our baked potatoes and, when that's not enough, we get sour cream and smoosh it in with the butter and then sprinkle the whole steamy mess with more black pepper.
And then, just when we're considering gastric bypass surgery, we order another round (minus the designated driver—hey, somebody's got to take one for the team) and consider dessert. Bread pudding? Yes, sir. Chocolate cheesecake? One, please! Sour cream apple walnut pie with extra whipped cream? You don't have to twist our arms! Nobody does self-indulgence like Steaksmith.

There seemed to be quite a strong emphasis on comedy in the New Adventures cartoons (the scientists whose names I thankfully can't recall being the obvious example). Was this intentional in the writing and planning of the episodes, or was it an element of the narrative which came about more by accident than by design?
Supporter of the New Adventures of He-Man
Motu fan and collector since 1984
Good question.
I consciously set out to interject some bits of humor into NA -- although my scientists were, imo, a disaster. I've always felt that small doses of humor in a serious film or television series can add a bit of pacing and give viewers a moment to breathe.
With regard to Skeletor -- and some fans liked the new elements of humor I put into him while others didn't --I felt he was already incredibly evil so I realized I really couldn't make him much more evil. So, for better or worse, I decided to take him in a bit of a humorous direction. Morever, Skelly was in a different time and place now on Primus. He was not so much an uncontested leader as he was a newly arrived part of the Mutant forces. I thought Skeletor's occasionally playing things for laughs might result in the Mutants -- Flogg in particular -- underestimating him, thus allowing him to get a better lay of the land prior to his making his move.
Humor is always tough to pull off since what's funny to one person isn't to another. I felt it was worth a shot to bring an added layer to the series and I felt it worked with the storyline regarding Skeletor's role in the series.
I have to agree with you that the scientists were a disaster (sorry). I think that perhaps there were a few too many additional characters added to the cartoon which didn't relate to the toy range, and the scientists also fell into this category, which didn't help their cause.
I don't recall if I've seen all the episodes from the series, as they were last shown on British television back in the 1990s, but I remember that very few mutants were regularly featured. Brakk, Kalamar, Staghorn, and Earthquake (forgive me for using the European names, they're the ones I'm most familiar with), for example, featured regularly alongside Skeletor; whereas other mutants featured in very few episodes, and were generally confined to the ship (Optikk springs to mind).
Was this planned? Was there a particular reason for it? I felt that some of the best mutant characters who appeared as toys (Optikk, Lizor, Hoove, and Karati) were very underused in the cartoon.
Supporter of the New Adventures of He-Man
Motu fan and collector since 1984
You don't ever have to apologize for criticizing my work. I learn much more from what the mistakes I've made in my more than 1,200 episodes of television than from what I've done right.
Regarding the running time given to specific characters, this was one element that was gently dictated by Mattel. They were doing two waves of characters and -- understandably -- wanted to have a larger focus on the characters/action figures that were going to be on the shelf when the series premiered. Thus the characters that had minor roles in the series were generally characters that would appear in the second wave.

Hey Jack,
first; I'm a huge New Adventures fan, it's the He-Man I grew up with and I love it!
My question (I've searches the thread to see if anything similar has been asked, couldnt find it so...):
In the intro's narrative it's said that He-Man was
...summoned to the future by the last of mankind...
In the episodes it seems that mankind is doing quite alright. Was that part of the narrative ever taken into consideration when writting an episode, past episode 1?

Well mankind was "doing quite alright" when it came to technology. However, because they had become so technologically advanced over the expanse of time, they also became, to an extent, pacifists and a certain degree of malaise set in. As a result when they were confronted by the aggressive invading Mutants they were largely incapable of mounting a defense, except for their technological defenses, which were failing. Thus they called upon a warrior to assist them.

I can't speak to the UK. It's possible that there was an early release because of their popularity in the mini-comics, but I really don't know. All I can tell you is the sequence in which they were presented to me and Mattel's request regarding which characters they wanted the most emphasis on.
Jack can you say me why the 1st 3 Episodes are not like the Mini-Comic story (or the Bastai comic Story) ???
Why Hydron and Flipshot use a Time Mashine not the Starship Eternia ????

Sorry if this is brought up earlier and I just didn't use the correct search term...and also sorry if this should've gone to the Tar Swamp!
Slushie and Felca obviously went to have a honeymoon at the end of 'Bride of Slush Head'. Was she to appear again if the series had continued, and would they've had offspring? Speaking of which...how do their species procreate? By eggs like most water-based Earth creatures?
"She-Ra, Princess of Power was no more. That had been the price of freedom."
After their wedding and honeymoon, Slushy returned to military service with the Mutants. Like many who serve, he would spend long periods apart from his loving wife. Felka however, was always proud of his service and remained a dutiful wife, tending to their cottage on the Quagmi Swamp where Slushy occasionally returns for R&R.
As for Felka appearing in future episodes, I certainly would have used her as a recurrring character in a few episodes as she is, after all, Slushy's wife and plays a large part in his life.
You are correct that procreating would occur through the laying of eggs. I would have loved to give them children as Slushy would have made a great father.
Obviously I had and continue to have a deep affection for Slushy. He was also a personal favorite of NA Producer Mark Taylor.
Through all of my extensive research on anything MOTU, I discovered a character named Gross. I cannot for the life of me find anything about him/her. I've watched most of the NA He-Man DVD's and haven't found him. I hope you can shed some light on this character.
Okay, I have newfound love for Kalamarr/Slush-Head because of that little sidestory you spun there, Olesker. I would love to have seen those little tentacled kiddos. I can also imagine "Take your spawn to work" day... Skeletor would have a blast or a cow (or both). lol

Did I ever grow up? Probably not. I'm sure the day-glo socks gave it away anyway.
Hello Jack,
I just finished the thread and wanted to say you are so polite, well spoken & respectful, it made the read even more enjoyable.
I'm fairly new to NA, I had 5 figures & 2 vehicles as a kid, but never even knew a cartoon existed until years later. I really like it. After reading the thread, seeing that you were responsible for Skeletor's personality (best part of NA), Crita (I absolutely love her), Drissi & Sebrian. Plus your work on MASK, Super Mario, Heathcliff (Catillac Cats, baby!) and a slew of other childhood favorites it's truly a privilege to be able to talk to you.
Now fanboy gushing aside,
You said you created the characters who weren't slated for toys, does this include Grr & Clobber? I hope this wasn't asked, but I'm still kinda new & it's a big site, so apologies if this is a repeat question, or if the answer is common knowledge.
Thanks for your time,

The Space Mutants are missing something CRITAcal!
Thanks for your kind words and thanks sincerely for being an NA fan. As I've often said, writers, directors, producers and actors are nothing without fans. So it's a pleasure for me to be able to interact with orgers on the board.
As for your query, I definitely created Grr. Not sure about Clobber. All you need do is Google the title of the episode or look at an NA episode list -- also Googleable (is that a word?). If I'm shown as the writer of the episode, then any new characters in that episode was my creation. As I've previously mentioned, Mattel gave me a lot of latitude to create new characters and that was tremendous fun for me.
By the way, in case you haven't listened to it, check out the Masters Cast podcast interview with me. It's must-listening for NA fans and will answer a lot of questions as well as give you some behind-the-scenes 411. Here's a link: http://masterscast.com/?p=46
New fans... Boy, if ya live long enough you get to see everything!
jack not forget our questions, remember?
I'll try to block out some time this weekend.
thanks for the update jack
Thanks Jack, you're even more awesome now that I know you created Grr I'm so hoping for him to show up in Classics.
I'm gonna move that MastersCast up in my playlist. (boy there are a ton of podcasts around here, hard to catch up) Looking forward to it.
Thanks again.

Trust me, listening to that masterscast interview will be time well-spent. I'm not being immodest here. Rather, I'm pointing to the skills of the three engaging interviewers. I've given a lot of interviews during my career, but this was certainly the most enjoyble. Their questions were fun, incisive, illuminating and -- as is the case with the best interviewers -- made me think and reflect.

Three arrested on drug charges; schools briefly locked down
Three people were arrested by Canonsburg police on drug charges, prompting a brief lockdown on May 6 at Canon-McMillan High School in North Strabane Township and South Central Elementary School in Canonsburg.
One of the three arrested, Zaie Escribano, 31, of the Bronx, N.Y., told Canonsburg police Sgt. Al Coghill he is a member of the Blood Money Bosses or BMB, which is reportedly a sect of the notorious Bloods gang.
Also arrested were Keith Anthony Rosario, 23, of Valley View Terrace, Canonsburg, and 21-year-old Paradise Wilson, who told police she is homeless. Coghill said she was not being cooperative with police.
Police had received information Escribano and Rosario would be in the area Monday, Coghill said. A traffic stop was initiated on Boone Avenue in North Strabane, and the two men were taken into custody. Escribano was the driver, and Rosario was a passenger. North Strabane Township police assisted in the arrest.
"We received information that they were significant dealers, handling multiple types of drugs," Coghill said. "They had been on our radar for about a month."
Found in an aerosol can with a hidden compartment were two bricks of heroin, Ecstasy pills and cocaine, police said. The estimated street value of all of the drugs is $4,000, Coghill said. Police also confiscated about $2,500.
While the two men were at the Canonsburg police station, police said Wilson appeared and told investigators the drugs belonged to her. She also was taken into custody.
"She said that she sells 15 to 20 bricks of heroin a week," Coghill said. "Based on selling 20 bricks, that is $15,000 a week or $60,000 a month. She claims that she has been selling here for seven months, so that means she would have brought in $420,000. We believe the money was going back to New York."
Schools were put on lockdown as a precaution.
"We made sure there was more than adequate protection," Coghill said. "That is why there may have seemed to be a significant police presence."
Coghill said a check of Escribano's background shows a large number of arrests for firearms violations, aggravated assault, gang assault, robbery and bringing dangerous contraband into prison.
Police Chief R.T. Bell said no area is exempt from drug dealers.
"It is happening all around us," Bell said.
Both Bell and Mayor David Rhome credited the borough's working relationship with the federal Drug Enforcement Administration. A Canonsburg police detective has been assigned to work with the DEA for the last several years. Rhome said the affiliation has only enhanced the department's work to protect the community.
"The intelligence information that has been received by the department has again paid off," Rhome said. "People step up and help us clear up our communities.
"Drugs have no boundaries," Rhome added. "It affects the rich and famous as well as the poor."
The three were arraigned before District Judge David Mark on charges of possession and possession with intent to deliver drugs and criminal conspiracy. All three are lodged in the Washington County jail on $200,000 bond.
A preliminary hearing will be held May 22 before Mark.

Football group to build shed in Peterswood Park
The Junior Football Association in Peters Township will build a 10-foot by 24-foot storage shed at Hofbauer Field in Peterswood Park at a cost of $24,000 that, when finished, will be turned over to the township for ownership and maintenance. Council approved the agreement during a meeting Jan. 28.
The two-story building was previously approved by the township's Parks and Recreation Board.
Council tabled a request by St. Benedict the Abbot Church for multiple signs for the upcoming multi-week fish fry. Council would like additional information on where the signs will be placed.
In other action, council:
• Heard comments from attorney James Haines representing Michael Harbison regarding a sign for Arlecchino restaurant that is placed off-site from the Camp Lane restaurant. Haines contends the owners of Arlecchino have not acted in good faith in attempting to work out an agreement on leasing the sign space. Arlecchino is represented by Ryan Wotus and the Pittsburgh law firm of Goldberg, Kamin and Garvin. Council told the attorneys attempts should be made to resolve the issue without involving the municipality.
• Authorized Campbell Insurance to become the township's new insurance carrier. Insurance rates will increase about 28 percent. The township's previous carrier, Gallagher Insurance, announced it would no longer represent the township.
• The annual road tour for township officials only will be held March 3.
• Approved a consent agenda of tax exonerations, destruction of records and the police pension plan.
• Heard two residents speak of their interest in moving the township from one state Senatorial district represented by state Sen. Matt Smith, D-Mt. Lebanon, into another district represented by state Rep. Tim Solobay, D-Canonsburg. Residents said they would prefer being in the district associated with Washington County. In the current district, the 37th Senatorial District, Peters Township is the only municipality from Washington County.
