An update!
By Chris Toy on October 4, 2012
Why hello there, it's been a while. And it sucks! Basically I had really hoped to get Studs Up going again right for the start of the season and obviously that hasn't really happened, and for the same reason that I had to take a break from it the middle of last season – I just don't have as much time as I used to for a passion project like this. I started Studs Up in 2008 I think, and a lot has changed since then. I love doing it, but in order to do it in a way where I can enjoy creating the comics and feel like I'm happy with what I'm showing you guys – I need a few hours a day I just don't have right now. I could jam it into 20 minutes and spout something out and I have for some comics in the past, and it just left me feeling nauseous and angry with myself as though I had just eaten an entire cake in the bathroom. Not sure why that was the analogy I went to, but whatever.
I had
also mentioned some hopefully "big news" to come, that was because I was working on plans for a Studs Up animated series. 1-3 minute videos each week with a brand new story, I was super psyched as I've loved animated shows as long as I've loved comics. Sadly, it ended up falling through as the studio we want to use costs about $5K to produce 45 seconds of animation and while we had interest from sponsors to help fund the first season – it ultimately fell through. I considered putting it on Kickstarter, but haven't decided for sure.
So thats where we are. I do have a few more options to try and make it a little easier for me to find the time to do SU and I'll see how those come together, but for now its still in a holding pattern. I do want to try and finally finish the book collection and at least get that out for you guys for some closure if this is indeed the end, but I'm still optimistic at figuring out how to get Studs UP back again – maybe in a new home or new format. If you have questions, hit me up on Twitter .Source: www.studs-up.com

Life on the lam did not last long for a Kentucky man wanted for his role in a robbery earlier this week at a South Strabane Township grocery store.
Dustin Riley was taken into custody at Walmart, Trinity Point, Friday afternoon only hours after he was discovered missing from his Washington Hospital room that morning.
Township police Sgt. Michael Manfredi said one of the witnesses in the case saw him in the store and called police.
"No one else was with him," Manfredi said. "He claims he had called his mother in Kentucky and she was coming to get him."
Riley, 21, and Justin Parrett, 22, both of Annville, were apprehended Wednesday for allegedly robbing a Canonsburg woman the previous afternoon at Giant Eagle in Strabane Square. Riley was taken to the hospital shortly after he was caught for treatment of a medical condition.
Township police Chief Don Zofchak said that hospital officials discovered that Riley was gone from his room about 7:50 a.m.
"He just walked out. He still had the intravenous port in his arm," Zofchak said.
Police were checking to see when Riley was going to be discharged so they could take him into custody.
Riley and Parrett are suspected of robbing Cheryl Dipippa as she unloaded groceries from a shopping cart into her vehicle. Parrett grabbed her wallet and ran. Riley, who told Dipippa he was not with Parrett, continued walking toward Giant Eagle.
The two later used one of Dipippa's credit cards at Old Trails restaurant on Route 40, South Strabane. The owner of the restaurant, Ralph Moore Jr., saw them leave in a Dodge Ram with a custom paint job. Moore spotted the truck the following morning on East Maiden Street and alerted police, who apprehended the pair.
Both men are charged with robbery, conspiracy, theft, receiving stolen property, forgery and access device fraud. Riley is also charged with possession of heroin and drug paraphernalia after he was found with the suspected drug.
Parrett was arraigned Wednesday before District Judge Jay Weller and placed in Washington County jail on $50,000 bond. Riley was arraigned Friday before Weller and placed in jail on $100,000 bond. Both men are scheduled for a preliminary hearing Sept. 5.

In a nutshell, the dimension hopping Leo Prime used the remains of Unicron's defeated avatar to forge the Gaia Armor. See the bios courtesy of the Allspark mirrored below:
Optimus Prime:
The noble leader Optimus Prime began his days as Orion Pax, a mere data clerk in the Iacon Hall of Records. It was his meeting with the gladiator Megatron that would greatly change his destiny, the first step on the path to being bestowed with the Matrix and recognized as a great leader. Adopting the motto "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings," Optimus Prime's battle with Megatron now continues on Earth. He fights to protect the people of Earth while uncovering the mysteries of the planet.
Gaia Unicon:
Legend has it that in days long past, the Chaos God Unicron was sealed away by the first 13 Transformers. As he threatens to awaken, the Earth lies on the verge of chaos and destruction. Iacon records claim that on a world in a distant dimension, civilization was driven to extinction when it attempted to harness Unicron's energy. Now Earth risks the same dire fate. The mighty avatar Gaia Unicron, born from Dark Energon, is the first harbinger of the chaos bringer's revival.
Gaia Armor:
Optimus Prime and his Autobots faced impossible odds, yet succeeded in defeating Gaia Unicron, the earthly avatar of the chaos lord Unicron. From its remains, the macrocosmic guardian Leo Prime used his ancient sword to forge the Gaia Armor. Although the purifying power of an Energon Matrix severed the Gaia Armor from Unicron's control, it still resonates with the forbidden might of Dark Energon, granting its wearer unspeakable power. Should Optimus Prime choose to don the armor, he must heed Leo Prime's warning and treat it with great caution: constant vigilance is required to control the armor without being corrupted by its power. Were the Gaia Armor to fall into the hands of the Decepticon tyrant Megatron, the consequences would surely mean destruction for the already outnumbered Autobots. Whether to be used for good or evil, the Gaia Armor brings a new dimension to the battles of Team Prime.

Five Pennsylvania residents, including two from Mt. Pleasant Township in Washington County, testified before a House Democratic Policy Committee hearing Tuesday that the state Department of Environmental Protection has failed to provide the necessary oversight on natural gas drilling.
Neighbors Kimberly Staub and Chris Lauff said since natural gas drilling took place near their homes on Fort Cherry Road, they are left wondering if they will suffer health problems someday as a result of the activity.
Lauff set a jar of muddy water on the table in front of him to demonstrate the condition of his well water. The natural gas company did admit responsibility for his water loss, and Lauff has since connected to a public water supply.
But Lauff said the DEP fails to abide by its own Best Management Practices when it comes to dealing with the drilling industry.
No one from the DEP attended the hearing, which state Rep. Jesse White, D-Cecil, termed "a great disappointment." White has introduced House Bill 268 that would require full disclosure of the department's test results.
DEP spokeswoman Katy Gresh said the DEP has responded previously to White on that subject.
"It would be irresponsible for DEP to provide homeowners with raw data that has not been quality-assured and quality-controlled. Raw data is, quite simply, unreliable and not valid in the eyes of any laboratory, public or private," she said.
At the end of the 2 1/2-hour hearing, White said, "what we heard from everyone today was not an attack on drilling. I'm sure we realize there are economic benefits to drilling. I think what we're hearing more than anything is that the DEP needs to step up and be the enforcement agency that homeowners and even the industry wants them to be," he said.
Staub, who contacted the DEP when she noticed an odor from an impoundment last fall, has yet to receive any case evaluation about her farm and its air quality despite repeated calls to the DEP.
Lauff, who said a toxicologist told them the only treatment for his exposure to chemicals is avoiding them, said his family has lost the enjoyment of their home. He supports the need for America to become energy independent if it is done safely and responsibly.
"The question we should be asking ourselves is not who is in favor of or who is against natural gas drilling, but rather, is there proper oversight to ensure the healthy and safety of the residents of our commonwealth by our state officials and government who are tasked to do so?" he asked.
Rep. Kevin Boyle, Philadelphia County, said, "I apologize for DEP. As Pennsylvania citizens, you deserve better."
Judy Armstrong Stiles, who wore a white cotton glove on her right hand because of skin problems she believes are associated with natural gas drilling, said her family was forced to move from their Bradford County home.
She told the panel that medical officials determined they had heavy metal poisoning, which she attributes to numerous chemicals in their drinking water from a gas well pad three miles away.
Her voice cracked when she explained her husband ended his life last year after being unable to deal with pain from intestinal cancer.
"I just want to know where were those agencies that were supposed to protect us?" she asked. "We paid thousands of dollars we couldn't afford to test our water. I think that was DEP's job."
Earthworks eastern program coordinator Nadia Steinzor said DEP's decision to provide only partial water test results to homeowners is a significant lapse in responsibility and transparency.
She called on the state legislature and DEP to make a number of changes, including providing testing prior to drilling activity and making that information publicly available, expanding parameters on air and water testing, and collecting comprehensive data on complaints.
Melissa Troutman, Mountain Watershed Association's outreach coordinator, said the policy for oil and gas extraction in Pennsylvania appears to be "permit first, test later." No new permits should be awarded until a thorough investigation of the department's policies and procedures is conducted, she said.
Also speaking were Steve Hvozdovich, policy associate with Clean Water Action, and Erika Staaf, a clean water advocate for PennEnvironment.

SF still mulling comprehensive plan
SF eliminates "industrial" from future land use map
Commissioners in South Fayette approved the township's comprehensive plan at an April 17 meeting, in spite of nearly 15 people – mostly industrial property owners – asking the board to rethink the plan's future land use map. The vote to approve the plan was 4-1 with board Vice President Tom Sray voting against the plan. The comprehensive plan has been in the works since April 2010.
The future land use map was amended at the board's April 10 meeting and eliminated the word "industrial" from the Millers Run Road area. From the map presented at the board's March meeting to April 10, the wording for the area was changed from mixed commercial or industrial/residential mix area to mixed-office commercial/residential.
"It's a substantial change to the future land use map," said resident John Alan Kosky, who is also a member of the township's zoning hearing board. He said the area along the Millers Run Road corridor primarily includes established industrial uses. "What changed from March 27 to April 10?" Kosky asked. "What's the intent?"
William Brown, who owns property in the Westbridge Industrial Park, said he opposed any changes omitting the industrial area from the map. Albert Olshinsky, who also owns property in the same industrial park, said, "You're pulling the rug out from under me. This (South Fayette Township) cannot be one big park and school district. You've got to have industry."
Jim Clister, who owns Bell Containers along Millers Run Road, said if industrial is eliminated then it would limit his options if he ever wants to sell his business. "It's too big for a pizza parlor," he said of the property.
George Hannan, a South Fayette resident who also owns industrial property, said, "It doesn't make any sense whatsoever." He added he pays more than $25,000 a year in property taxes.
Prior to the vote approving the plan, Commissioner Joe Horowitz said, "We're not changing zoning." He said he would be opposed to any rezoning of the industrial property and added that the map and comprehensive plan is a "long-term plan for growth."
Landowner Terry Kuhn said it was "premature for the board to vote on the comprehensive plan."
Township solicitor Jonathan Arminas stressed that the comprehensive plan doesn't change zoning in any way. "Zoning is not going to change. Zoning districts are not going to be affected," he said.
Resident Judy Krisovenski said after the meeting that she was "totally disappointed" the board approved the comprehensive plan. "This is a back door approach to a property owner's rights. By changing the word, it changes the meaning" she said.
After the meeting, Commissioner Tom Sray, who cast the lone vote against the comprehensive plan, said, "Even though it won't change the zoning," the industrial portion should have been left on the map.

Tagged: F1 quiz
This topic contains 4,894 replies, has 172 voices, and was last updated by Zantkiller 3 years, 8 months ago.
This is an idea I got from another F1 forum I was using while F1 fanatic forum was down. Basically its a rolling quiz which starts with a question, the first person to get it right gets to ask the next question and so on. The questions can be any kind of F1 trivia from name the track photographs to a simple who finished in x position in y grand prix? and every type of question in between.
Oh and if there's some doubt over the right answer wait until its confirmed before you set the next Q otherwise it could get confusing.
I'll start the ball rolling with a very simple question. Who won the 1998 Hungarian Grand Prix?
Good idea!
Hmm for the first one i'd say maybe Coulthard?
Michael Schumacher?
Macca's spot on, next question please…
How many different circuits have hosted the United States GP?
Tricky question, Macca. There were many circuits on USA but not all under the "US GP" name. Well, there were nine F1 circuits in the US: Sebring, Riverside, Watkins Glen, Long Beach, Fair Park, Detroit, Ceasars Pallace, Phoenix and Indianapolis.
But the name "United States Grand Prix" were used by Sebring, Riverside, Watkins Glen, Phoenix and Indianapolis.
USA Grand Prix – Dallas, Riverside, Phoenix, Detroit, Indianapolis and Watkins Glen
USA west – only Long Beach (1976.-1983.) this is a Long Beach Grand Prix
USA east – Watkins Glen (1976.-1980.) this is a USA GP, and Detroit (1982.-1984.) wich is Detroit Grand Prix not a USA GP
Caesar Palace is not a USA Grand Prix, then Ceasar Palace Grand Prix. ;)
9 was the answer I was looking for. Well done Guilherme Teixeira. Next question please…
How many races were won by Scottish drivers in F1 history?
Well done Ciaran. Next question please…

A French court says former International Monetary Fund head Dominique Strauss-Kahn will stand trial on charges of being part of an organized prostitution ring. The once-powerful French politician was considered a step away from the French presidency when he was accused of sexually assaulting a New York City hotel maid in May 2011. As NPR's Eleanor Beardsley reports, his fall from grace isn't over yet.
UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN: (Foreign language spoken)
ELEANOR BEARDSLEY, BYLINE: He may have escaped charges faced at the Sofitel in New York, says this news announcer, but Strauss Kahn will have to face a judge over what happened at the Carlton Hotel in Lille. She's talking about accusations that Strauss Kahn, along with other high-ranking businessmen and police officials, operated a prostitution ring out of the Carlton Hotel in the northern French town. The decision is a blow for Strauss Kahn who thought his legal woes were over. He settled the civil case with the New York hotel maid out of court earlier this year and appeared to be rebuilding his life. He was seen at Cannes with his new girlfriend and has begun giving economic speeches. Strauss-Kahn even gave an interview with CNN at the beginning of July.
UNIDENTIFIED MAN: The problem with all the allegations about you, sir, is underneath them all there's an element of behavior that is not expected of men or women of high office.
DOMINIQUE STRAUSS-KAHN: I agree. So, I made this mistake to believe that you could have a public life, doing what you had to do in the public life, and that you could have a private life.
BEARDSLEY: But France has wearied of Strauss-Kahn, and the latest news hardly registered on a nation deep into its summer vacation. Still, the DSK scandal, as it was known here, did have a profound effect on the country. It angered women especially, and began to change attitudes and a certain tolerance of sexual harassment and the bad behavior of powerful men. Hardly anyone thinks Strauss Kahn can make a political comeback, but his behavior can still spark an argument around this lunch table in the Burgundy village of Flavigny.
FABIEN DIDIER: (Foreign language spoken)
BEARDSLEY: Forty-year-old Fabien Didier says French justice is right to go after Strauss-Kahn.
DIDIER: Because he's a politician man and so he has to have good behavior in fact.
BEARDSLEY: French politicians, says Didier, no longer get a pass on their private lives. Eleanor Beardsley, NPR News from Flavigny, France. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

On the second anniversary of the massacre that gravely wounded her and changed her life, the inspiring and extraordinary former U. S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords has joined her husband, astronaut Mark Kelly, in launching a political action committee, Americans for Responsible Solutions, which seeks to impose reasonable restrictions on gun ownership and registration and background check requirements. Could there be any more effective and powerful spokesperson for this cause than someone whose life was shattered by one of the many perpetrators of our gun homicide epidemic?
The couple wrote, "Special interests purporting to represent gun owners but really advancing the interests of an ideological fringe have used big money and influence to cow Congress into submission.
Rather than working to find the balance between our rights and the regulation of a dangerous product, these groups have cast simple protections for our communities as existential threats to individual liberties. Rather than conducting a dialogue, they threaten those who divert from their orthodoxy with political extinction.
Until now, the gun lobby's political contributions, advertising and lobbying have dwarfed spending from anti-gun violence groups. No longer. With Americans for Responsible Solutions engaging millions of people about ways to reduce gun violence and funding political activity nationwide, legislators will no longer have reason to fear the gun lobby."
I agree with the couple completely, and how I hope they are right that this is a new era in how we look at the proliferation of guns which facilitate massive carnage within seconds.
On the agenda of Rep. Giffords are meetings with members of Congress, her friends, whom she dares to tell her "no".
The couple recognizes the sad facts that the mass murderer and child-killer in the incident in which "Gabby" suffered devastating injuries was able to mow down 19 people in a span of 25 seconds, and that 85 percent of the murders of children occur in our uniquely violent United States.
It is important to note that the couple are gun owners and Second Amendment advocates, but they question why it must be made easy for those with evil intent to secure the tools of wholesale slaughter.
The National Rifle Association is a tool of gun manufacturers. Its power, like its belief in the Second Amendment, has been absolute. Gabrielle Giffords, Mark Kelly, President Obama, and others who wish to take a wide-ranging and balanced approach to protect us, will have the fight of their life on their hands against what is perhaps the most powerful entrenched special interest that uses its muscle and money to command Congress. I wish them Godspeed.

I wish there were more options. Like, 'while I didn't request them I like them and am looking forward to them'. Or 'even an I don't care either way' option.
I voted that I like them, but I wouldn't consider them fan demanded.
Yes - Nobody asked for, nor wants them!
No - They are fan demanded and will do fine!
Bad things come in threes? I am seeing a lot of people on the boards here who don't really want the FFM. I personally don't care for them or even understand why three whole slots were wasted on them. Do you think they will be the new Star Sisters? Will people have to take a huge loss in trying to sell them?
I imagine the parts/custom market would be good for them, since they have a lot of cool parts. They look like cheap China Town knockoff figures to me. These figures are probably the first in the line that I actually think are crap (sorry 4H/Toyguru).
What do you think?
I wish there were more options. Like, 'while I didn't request them I like them and am looking forward to them'. Or 'even an I don't care either way' option.
I voted that I like them, but I wouldn't consider them fan demanded.
Thundercats Hooooooooooo!
Yeah your two options are too extreme.
There are many people who wanted them but they're not in high demand.
They're obscure but they're generally accepted as being cooler than the Star Sisters so won't be as hated.
I am an illustrator, please check out my work:
I'm looking forward to them, and think they look cool! Of course, I also really liked the Star Sisters, as I've several customs to finish that the Sisters are perfect for!
If anyone is unhappy with their FFM, consider letting me adopt them- they'll get a good home...
I voted yes because I do think people will have to sell them at a steep discount if they want to get rid of them. They also seem to stir up a bit of a fuss amongst many whenever they're mentioned.
However that being said, I'm personally looking forward to them. They're not my favorites nor would they have been something I would have asked for, but the more I see of them the more I like them.
I'm looking forward to them. The more I see them, the more I like......I can't say that about the Star Sisters....so I voted no.
My Trader Feedback: http://www.he-man.org/forums/boards/...mighty-He-Dad!
I started a thread on these guys & tried to raise more awareness for the box art characters.
So, I'm very excited about the FFM. I been anticipating these figures since the review last year.
Skeleton-Warriors, Ra-Jar, Spinwit, Rock Golem, General Tartaran, Hawke, Slob-Boar, King Agho, Hunga the Harpy, Sh'gora, Masks of Power Demons, Nocturna, Lizzor, Sagitar, Crimson Fury, Lodar, Vizar, Angast, Negator, King Miro, Melaktha, Crystal-Man, ABC Giants, Stridor, Road Ripper, Land Shark
Unlike the Star Sisters, the FFM look really great. I don't think there was a ton of demand for them, but it's hard to imagine that many people actually hate them.
No, and I am looking forward to them, but not sure how truly fan demanded they are though.
Certainly not looking forward to the $100 plus shipping next month though....
I didn't want the Star Sisters, but I am looking forward to the Foe Men....more options for voting are needed....

The star sisters were just an ugly concept with an uglier execution and they were not fan demanded. Just ask to a normal POP fan when the line will end if he rather has the star sisters instead of peekablue, perfuma and sweetbee.
the FFM are more fan demanded (maybe in the very fisrt place in the obscure charcaters list) and they are captivating as hell....they really show off the aesthetic of the older motu waves.

No way. The FFM are gonna rock and be totally awesome!!!
I think we heard way more about the Star Sisters than the vehicle pilots, but the latter characters are more "acceptable" to a fanbase that fears the color pink on Swiftwind.

Definitely they are not the new Star sisters. Because they are cooler than them. But they are not fan demanded. Fan demanded could be Fang man, Lord Masque, Icer, Batros and Shokoti among others. They are characters we know and never had a figure. The Star sisters, Vykron and FFM are not fan demanded. I didn't even know they existed in first place. The difficult part about FFM is that they are expensive and adding the shipping increase. They will be difficult to accept in DOS
I really liked the Star Sisters and I am also excited to get the Fighting Foe Men. So, this poll doesn't appeal to me.
My trade feedback: http://www.he-man.org/forums/boards/...d.php?t=212100
I voted no because the FFM reveal and discussion following the reveal was nothing at all like what happened after the Star Sisters' reveal. That thread got locked for a while until Eamon did a seperate Star Sisters thread...and even then in was on like Donkey Kong for a bit in that thread. There were edits, removed posts, etc...
So, while I see the angle the OP is working, I still have to go with no. The FFM are in no way the new SS and, with the arguable exception of Mighty Spector, there hasn't been that much hoopla again.
That being said, I like the Star Sisters and the FFM.
Ask not for whom MOTUC is made, it's made for thee.
If you have to disclaimer your like, then you don't really like it.
I like them. I like the Star Sisters too.

I think they are awesome ad can't wait to get them. I thought the same about the star sisters. I understand people's complaints, but I like them.
I'm glad the star sisters came as a three pack. gets them out of the way not taking three monthly slots away instead.

They are definitely not the new Star Sisters as the Star Sisters actually had good fan demand from POP fans. The FFM had very little fan demand and I for one did not sub because of them been included in the 2013 sub.
Depends on what you mean.
will it be hard for people to get rid of them? Likely
The Star Sisters probably had more initial demand before the reveals.
Fighting Foe Men look like (the top half) of the characters from the packaging, where as the Star Sisters resemble a one off appearance in the show and even then not 100%.
both sets have either one of the figures individual collectors like or dislike. Interestingly everyone seems to think their opinion is universal.
One Gum Drop to rule them all, One Gum Drop to find them,
One Gum Drop to bring them all and in the sweetness bind them
In the Land of Candy where the Gingerbreads lie.
-Tag line for the Candy Land Movie Adaptation
There are sentences I should just stay a way from. - The Doctor
Rob Liefeld isn't a comic artist, he's a women's clothing designer. Think about it
I personally like both the Star Sisters and the Fighting Foe Men; HOWEVER, I have a few extra FFM sets that I can't seem to give away
TOP 5 MOST WANTED: Ice Armor He-Man, Filmation Mer-Man,
Filmation Ram Man, Filmation Two-Bad, and Snake Mountain Man
The Fighting Foe Men are 29 times cooler than the Star Sisters.
My seller/trader/buyer feedback:
MOTUC Most Wanted: 1) Stridor 2) Road Ripper 3) Dragon Walker 4) Land Shark

Golden Eagles looking for great ending KO advances in state baseball playoffs.
Great endings start with great beginnings. Just ask the members of the Keystone Oaks baseball team.
The day before the 2013 campaign commenced, the Golden Eagles met for dinner at Vincent's in Green Tree. According to manager Scott Crimone, each player shared his personal and team goals. "Each player wanted to win the section, win the WPIAL and win states," Crimone said.
So far, the Golden Eagles are 1-for-2. They claimed a section banner. By edging West Allegheny, 1-0, in the WPIAL Class AAA consolation contest at Washington and Jefferson College field, KO put itself in position to achieve a second objective. The Golden Eagles qualified for the PIAA state tournament for the first time in the program's 48-year history.
"This club continues to add to its list of accomplishments and has just shattered all of the Keystone Oaks baseball team records this season," exclaimed Crimone.
The Golden Eagles have compiled the best record in school history. They shared the section title with Chartiers Valley, a team KO defeated in the WPIAL quarterfinals. It was KO's first banner sinced 2003 when the squad competed at the Class AA level. The Golden Eagles finished third out of 32 teams in the district and qualified for the PIAA tournament.
"I could not be more proud of these boys," said Crimone. "They are 1-for-2 so far and have earned the opportunity to achieve a third goal. We will keep on working and applying our philosophy of hard work, discipline and respect."
KO demonstrated those traits plus a dose of tenacity in defeating West Allegheny in the consolation contest. In the 1-0 triumph, Taylor Lehman scored from first base on Nick Riggle's walk-off triple. A freshman, Riggle blasted the three-bagger over the center fielder's head with a 2-2 count and two outs. Lehman had reach base on a walk.
Jared Skolnicki controlled the opposition' bats. The senior went the distance, surrendering three hits, walking none and scattering five hits.
"Jared was dominant again," said Crimone.
Meanwhile, Ryan Ribeau threw out the only two base runners who attempted to run on the senior catcher.
While KO garnered just two hits, the Eagles got the one hit that mattered for the walk-off, added Crimone.
KO kept up its progress as the Golden Eagles defeated Slippery Rock, 4-0, in the PIAA opener played at the Jerry Uht Stadium in Erie.
Skolinicki earned the win on the mound as KO improved to 19-5 overall. He tossed a no-hitter. Skolinicki struck out 11 batters and walked three.
"Jared was as dominant as usual despite struggling through the first inning due to a tightly called strike zone," said Crimone. "Plus, the defense was spectacular behind him."
Ben Canty certainly made the plays to preserve the no-hitter. The sophomore second baseman made three or four "dazzling plays," said Crimone.
KO also "manufactured a few runs" on offense to support Skolnicki's cause.
Ribeau drove in senior shortstop Ryan Rosato with a sacrifice fly in the first inning. Senior third baseman Brandon Gresh came up with a big hit in the fourth inning to score 2 runs and junior left fielder Walt Hepner hit a sacrifice fly in the sixth to bring home the fourth and final run. "It was a great team win led by just another outstanding and marvelous performance by the best pitcher in the WPIAL," said Crimone of the victory, which set up a rematch with South Park on June 6 in the PIAA quarterfinals. KO lost, 1-0, to the Eagles in the WPIAL semifinals. South Park went on to win the district championship.
"We are eager and excited to see South Park again," said Crimone. "They are an amazingly talented team and we look forward to another great battle against them."

I think after they got Filmation, golden books, jetlag, ect rights, and AND revealed Fearless Photog, I dont doubt that they'll have the rights to anybody eventually. Only basically movie left right?
So For now understanding that I think they could do absolutely anybody eventually, I suppose I'm afraid of them not doin...
Karg, outta the movie. I think they'll get the rights, but maybe it'll take to long to get to Karg since I imagine they'd want to do Blade, Saurod, and Gwildor first, as they are in the vintage line. But then Karg is an obvious draw, and much requested. And they do listen to our much requests. But it's possible he'd be missed.
Oo-Larr. I hated the idea of Oo-Larr, since it was clear to me from Wun-Dar's bio he was the barbarian He-Man from the minicomic. I still think that made more sense, and I kinda still stick with it. But I've grown attached in some small way to the idea of Oo-Larr, the He-Man from the original minicomics. I dont really need a basically nekkid He-Man varient with a spear, but I kinda do. He fits now, I've accepted him. Dangit. But they may just not bother, they've got so much else to do.
Modulok. Hey, he's going to be very strange and difficult to do right. And if and when they do do him, it may just be perfection itself. But I'm scared they may just skip him until the line dies. Not skip him intentionally, but put him off until it's too late.
Songster. After listening to Pixel Dan, Lord Killen, and crew on their podcast, where Dan mentions a great and interesting (and quite satisfying) story, I'm very very excited. Things are comming together in great ways. But I'm afraid he may get missed. At least after Dan's story on the podcast, I'm more certain this will be done. I just hope sooner than later, say sometime next year as an sdcc exclusive, or at the latest a 2013 Sub fig, (though I doubt that last, as I think they will do "must have" figures going forward, at least for a while.) Whatever. I want a Songster. Him with Photog (and Shadow Weaver) make my most wanted out of the least likely. Now he's the only one left. Come on, do it!
"The most difficult thing is trying not to forget who you really want to be." - Nong Toom
I am looking for these Marvel Legends figures
My marketplace feedback
About Songster: I wouldn't be surprised if he was one of the original characters made for MOTUs 30th anniversary...
I think characters requiring a lot of tooling will not make it to the line....
a Rock People 3 pack with Stonedar/Rokkon/Granita seems unfortunately unrealistic
I hope that on the other end the core characters of every factions are made before MOTUC ends (Angella, Glimmer, Frosta and Castaspella for POP. Hydron, Brakk, Darius and Slushead for NA, etc....). It would be sad to have MOTUC ends this way, while obscure characters like Mo-Larr, Vikor or Photog made it...
In one of the SDCC videos (might be last years), ToyGuru told PixelDan that any figure that had been made will be made (meaning MOTU, POP, NAHM, Movie, 200x, and NECCA). So gaining the Filmation, Jetlag, and book rights just opened up using the unique characters from them (TG has also said they will not be making specific Filmation-style anyones, but they would take a Filmation/other character and "classicize" it for the line, meaning adding more detail).
The figures I'd really love to see made:
Master Sebrian
Evilseed (MOTU and 200x-style; maybe a removable robe & swappable heads)
Oo-Larr (hopefully with bare wrists & feet, drawstring shorts, and spear)
Skeletor's Skelcons (neat 2-pack/army builder)
Skeletor's Robots Warriors (another neat 2-pack/army builder)
Melaktha (maybe with Stanlin)
King Miro
Queen Frosta (my favorite POP character, next to She-Ra/Adora)
Madame Razz & Broom
Clamp Champ
Eldor (with Book of Living Spells)
Gray (He-Ro's original alter-ego)
A pretty tall order, but I'm sure they can all be got to. Some possible, some probable, others probably not.

My B/S/T thread: http://www.he-man.org/forums/boards/...ings-For-Sale!
I truly believe we will get nearly all the regular figures of vintage MOTU and POP. The line is going along well enough to get that task done imo. Especially with the big, upcoming 30th anniversary year! I'll worry when we have a Thermometer of Doom taunting us.
I think the only figures I want but realistically might not make it are gonna be mostly Filmation characters. Especially if they are only doing 1-3 Filmation characters per year and there's dozens of characters that I would love a figure of that NOT everyone would.
I don't think we're ever gonna see a Filmation Count Marzo variant due to the new tooling he'd require. That was Toyguru's response at least when he was asked about it: "He would require too much new tooling and they want to get to other Filmation characters first".
Contact me if you have MOTU Merchandise Items for sale or trade! Please view a sampling of what I am looking for Here:
C'mon ! I want THEM ALL !!!
I'm just afraid about HORDE PRIME because the 4Horsemen have to create a brand new concept.. BUT I REALLY REALLY REALLY want him!

My marketplace feedback
Two of him.
Earth cloths and Eternian robes.
With 2 Eternian girls
Because Lubic rules.
I am not worried about getting any of the vintage figures. If/when this line were to ever come to a close, if all of the vintage figures are not accounted for, it would never be considered complete or definitive. I think making it the latter is extremely high on the priorities list for both TG and the 4H.
I suppose my concerns would come mostly from FilMation as there is just so much to do. I am not worried about my BIG wants from there - guys like General Sunder (could be a head in a Trooper 2-pack), King Miro, Seahawk. Vultak and Icer all seem like givens.
So, I suppose I will add King Ahgo and Grox to the list of "concerned". They are somewhat obscure, but I consider the trolls to be a integral part of the Rebellion and I am always for adding more diversity to the shelf. They would make for some AMAZING over-sized figures (how could you not want a 4H troll figure?) and could obviously share bodies. I would love to see them.
I want everyone though, so my list is obviously long, but I want to show my support for the GOOD kind of trolls.
Here are my wants that I doubt we'll get:
Leo Faker
Leo Kobra Khan
Man at Arms - (classic toy colors)
Mer-Man - (vintage toy version: Whiplash forearms, Kobra Kahn's boots, no yellow on arms and legs, orange loin cloth)
Laser Power He-Man - with Dolph Lundgren head sculpt
200X He-Man - with new sculpted lion cloth, chest harness, forearms, head, axe, and shield (no less new parts than Vikor received)
"There's only one Master of the Universe and it's He-Man." - Stephen Colbert
"The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing." - Blaise Pascal
I don't think we will ever get Odiphus, old man Marzo, Kowl, Imp, Lookie, catra's cat form, and a legit Cringer.
Quote the Raven, Nevermore.
It can't rain all the time.
"Live the journey, for every destination is but a doorway to another."
Illumina i would say, i would love to see her made but i have a bad feeling for her....
Can´t say why.
I also would love Kowl and Lookie, but I actually consider them possible.
On the less likely scale, I'd have to agree with Rokkon and Stondar and add The Collector as a vehicle and the nameless (as far as I can tell) rock based Horde member from MYP.
A 2013 3-pack of Stondar, Rokkon and Granita would be an awesome way to get the rock people in one fell swoop.
Kudok Ungol
An easy Sorceress redeco. New head and could use a different color scheme, but will Mattel produce it?
Could come with a Teela-Na head for the Sorceress.
A perfect quarterly figure
Planet Claire has pink air
All the trees are red
No one ever dies there
No one has a headThe B-52's
Maybe I just have too much faith in this line, but I believe we'll eventually see every vintage MOTU and POP figure in MOTUC.
I'm mostly worried about not seeing the more obscure FILMation characters like Dragoon, Celice and Tullamore. As well as some characters that they don't currently have the rights for, like Detective Lubic, Karg and Movie Skeletor.
"Oh Lord, Bless this M&M... and the mighty cockroach I slain in battle to get it." - Al Bundy
Proud supporter of the Snake Men.
Most Wanted: Slave Girl, Lizorr, T-Rex, Great Black Wizard, rest of New Adventures, Lodar, MOP Demons, Dream Mistress.
Most Wanted Filmation: Ileena, Granita, Teela, Hordak head, Dylamug, Twiggets, Trollans, Widgets, Dark Dream, Lady Valtira, Count Marzo, Chimera.
No Slave Girl? Watch us hurl!
A barbaric world without slave girls? That's truly barbaric!
How could I forget?!
NA: Butthead
(what a ridiculous character)
You know, all this talk about The Rock Warriors got me thinking. I'd love to get them in MOTUC. But I think if we don't get them, it's a little different than some other characters.
If for example, they never made Ram Man (God forbid) I couldn't really put a classic Ram Man with the other characters. He's too out of scale and style. But Rokkon was so differently shaped and sized to begin with, he could almost pass for a MOTUC character in his original form.
Same goes for Gwildor I suppose. Although I never had much interest in the live action film personally. If I did, I guess I'd just have to go get a Tom Paris action figure.

Hekima Place gives girls a place to grow
Kate Fletcher
Hekima founder Kate Fletcher wondered what her life would hold after her the death of her husband. Living in Pittsburgh's South Hills, she had no idea that she would find peace 7,000 miles away in Africa, a third world country.
Kate gave away her furniture and car and in 2003, Kate traveled to Kenya to volunteer at an AIDS orphanage. She soon became concerned about other AIDS orphans, those who were not HIV infected, but living in slums from the consequences the disease brought to their families. Female children became her main concern as girls weren't offered opportunities to grow and be self-sustaining as boys.
Her efforts were rewarded with housing provided by a Kenyan couple. As Hekima Place, the first refuge for girls opened, Kate returned to Pittsburgh and initially raised $30,000 to help cover expenses to maintain her safe haven.
Support to provide a future for the girls now comes not only from donors in the U.S. and Kenya, but churches and organizations in Canada and Europe. HP has grown from educating 10 girls in its humble beginnings to caring for 70. Kfhas a bachelor science degree in education from Duquesne University and a master of public health in administration health care from the University of Pittsburgh.
Hekima Place
Completed in Dec. 2010, Hekima's Place has a permanent home located outside Nairobi. A security gate and guard now welcomes volunteers, Kate, her staff and the young girls to a complex of six cottages, dining hall and land for its shamba (garden) and orchard which grows vegetables and fruit, and raises chickens, cows, goats and a donkey. Recently, a water purification system to serve HP and other areas was completed.
HP is governed by a U.S. Board of Directors based in Pittsburgh and a Board of Trustees in Kenya. The Majority of Funding is provided by individual donations.
Children are our future. It doesn't matter if they are our neighbors or living at the ends of the earth. By showing love and providing lifeskills and education, young people will continue to thrive.
In Africa, girls are not cared for as their male counterparts. Believed that their sole purpose is to bear children, girls are not given benefits and opportunities, including education, that boys receive.
Hekima Place in Kenya, Africa, was founded in 2005 by South Hills resident Kate Fletcher. Kate believed in the great need to introduce girls to opportunities and positive experiences and to show love to girls who live in a country torn by war, poverty and disease. Hekima Place (a place of wisdom) provides a family-like environment and education in local schools, empowering each girl to face her future with confidence. The orphanage has come a long way in such a short time.
The mission of Hekima Place is to serve the needs of Kenyan girls orphaned primarily of HIV/AIDS. By providing a safe, faith-based, loving home HP supports excellence in education and empowerment for their futures.
One young Hekima girl, Grace, had two younger sisters. Their mother died in 2005 and the sisters had no place to go. Fortunate for them, the girls were taken to HP to live and attend school. Grace completed primary and high school and will soon attend the university. She has been grateful for not going to bed hungry, for never worrying where she would sleep at night, for clean clothes and for the care her sisters are receiving.
Hekima girls live in cottages with a staff "mum." They help with the cleaning and dishes, enjoy singing and dancing and attend church services offered by Jesuit Father Jim. They are bused to school and those with extended families often visit between school sessions.
Volunteers are always needed. Men and women offer their time and talents to do whatever is needed to benefit the girls and babies through schooling. Willing hands repair broken utilities, labor in the gardens, teach computer skills, assist with homework, join the girls in soccer, wipe away tears and ease mental and physical pain. Through this kindness the girls strive to reach their greatest potential and know that love bridges all cultures.
In a search of volunteer opportunities, Mt. Lebanon resident Lorraine Bridy contacted Kate after reading about Hekima Place in The Almanac. Months of planning had her finally on her way, not really traveling alone. Lorraine's grandson provided her with "Flat Stanley," a whimsical 1964 kid's book companion which made the roundtrip journey.
As a surrogate mom, Lorraine did what she could, helping with homework, tending to the girls' needs, the garden and orchard and any way needed.
"After six weeks in Africa I realized that Hekima Place bestows its gentle, disciplined wisdom on everyone who touches it: the gardeners, house mums, staff, volunteers and especially Kate and the girls," said Lorraine with a smile.
Support with prayers and donations have changed many lives at HP, whose girls may have previously dealt with the death of parents, mental and physical abuse, extreme poverty or social stigma.
Kate recently met with 500 entrepreneurs during the recent Social Innovation Summit at the United Nations Building in New York City. She will visit the South Hills in August.
Learn more about Kate and Hekima Place at Bower Hill Presbyterian Church on Aug. 18, St. Valentine Church on Aug. 25 and at a fundraiser at Scenic Valley Golf Club in Finleyville on Sept. 10.
Donations for Hekima Place are accepted by Kathy English, Treasurer-Hekima Place, 407 Morrison Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15216.

The guy wearing the sandwich board that reads "the end is nigh" has the easy job.
"Where is everybody going and what's with all the handbaskets?" asks one bumper sticker that is uncomfortably apt. Yes, times are bleak enough that small nations are collapsing, big nations are teetering, dictators are back in vogue and Cleveland, Ohio can't figure out how to stop the rampant looting in abandoned neighborhoods full of foreclosed houses. People in Cleveland are even stealing broken bits of concrete because, in the words of Everest mountaineer George Mallory, "It is there." To proclaim the proximity of "the end" is a failure of imagination: It too is there, just over yonder.
Weird—fortune cookie weird—if you think about it because, should you pry your eyes away from disaster long enough to look the other direction, there's nothing but opportunity.
Despite those who insist there's no real difference between politicians or their parties, there has been a clear sea change in American politics and policy. That short, cranky, ill-spoken dimwit is no longer the president of the United States, and his henchmen are no longer running the show. We have made it clear we are not down with torture, nor are we cool with blocking abortion funding and stem cell research or selling off huge tracts of beautiful land to slick suits in search of nothing more than oil. New Deal 2.0 is imminent and it is as deeply green as one can expect from something as awkward as government. Speaking of which, the federal government is now OK with states growing pot if they want to, so long as the crystallized, super-stank, kind bud from outer space is "medical." And isn't it always?
But two areas where progressives are still waiting with bated breath for policy to pan out in a positive direction are food and farming. On the one hand, it looks good: Barry and Michelle are food dorks who like to extol the benefits of fresh, organic ingredients and are almost as capable of naming pretentious chefs and obscure vegetables as they are minor points of constitutional law. There is a formidable movement afoot to encourage the svelte, savvy presidential couple to dig up the White House lawn and plant an organic garden in its place. On more than one occasion, Obama decried the evils of the "farm bill" in which Congress blindly hurls around $25 billion a year at industrial agri-businesses with a pittance worth of half-composted millions allocated to organic and small-scale farms.
On the other hand, Obama ducked out of voting as a US Senator last time the farm bill came around, which is rarely seen as a bold, confidence-inspiring move. What's more, Obama, as president, appointed former Iowa governor (and former presidential candidate) Tom Vilsack as his secretary of agriculture. If Vilsack wasn't always wearing a baseball hat inscribed with the moniker of some giant agricultural conglomerate, he would be pecked to death by hungry birds because he is so in bed with the corn industry that his eyeballs are actually made of corn. Of course if Obama hadn't won the Iowa primary by swearing up and down that he loves his wife only a little less than he loves corn, he might not be president now, so he owes Iowa big-time, which is the same as owing corn. From that perspective, it makes sense for him to choose Vilsack. But it remains pretty safe to allege that industrial corn production is a bigger threat to the world than, say, Nazi Germany ever was.
In New Mexico, where corn is less of an industrial mainstay and more of a revered demigod of the harvest, without which enchiladas would suck, we don't know a Vilsack from a flour sack. When we wonder whether this porky white dude, leaving a trail of corn wherever he goes, will be good for New Mexico, we hear nothing but the sound of crickets. But then, if Obama has made one thing clear as president, it is that he is not going to do everything for us. The American dream rewards those with the initiative to do for themselves. We, the people, according to Obama, are going to have to step up and start working toward the nation in which we want to live. Since this administration has so far done little to address food and farm issues, the presumption is that Obama's suggestion goes doubly for such topics.
Here in New Mexico, an organization called the Santa Fe Alliance has responded by saying, "Oh yeah, Big O? If that's how you want to play it, we got your missing piece right here."
Vicki and Roy were sitting at a table in a bar. Let's be honest, there were drinks involved. But there was also a clearheaded desire to do something about the tricky economic and social landscape that dominates New Mexico. Using more than a year's worth of collected conversations and information about food production and energy use in New Mexico, they whipped out a pen and went to work—as so many have before—on the bar napkin in front of them. The scheme that resulted was called "Movida," which sounds like a kind of Ebonics-Spanglish term for "more life." Pretty close to the truth actually, but it is more practically called the Regional Food and Fuels Project.
Vicki Pozzebon is the executive director of the Santa Fe Alliance (SFA), an organization dedicated to promoting local and independent businesses, and Roy Wroth is the chairman of SFA's board of directors. When they went to work on their napkin, they knew some startling things about New Mexico. They knew food security among the populace was only worse in Mississippi among all the states: 16 percent of New Mexicans are going hungry or are at risk of going hungry. Pozzebon and Wroth also knew that this was not a simple matter of getting people more food, but that it was a basic economic problem. Good, healthy food is not available to people at an economically competitive rate because processed, high-fat and high-sugar foods are
subsidized (through the farm bill) and sold for artificially low prices, particularly in rural areas.
As advocates of local business, Pozzebon and Wroth also knew that it was important to keep wealth localized if communities are to grow and be healthy, but money is consistently lost through spending at chain stores and "big-box" franchises like Walmart where profits are sucked away to corporate headquarters. Food is the No. 1 source of dollar leakage for regional communities and Pozzebon and Wroth used their napkin to try to envision a system whereby food could be sourced as locally as possible, both to reduce consumer cost and to maintain community wealth. Energy costs are another top source of wealth drain on communities, so the Regional Food and Fuels Project that was hastily scratched on the napkin considered the deep relationship between food and energy, and concluded that the two cannot be effectively separated, but must be confronted simultaneously.
Some bar napkin scrawls, it turns out, are better than others. The Lydia B Stokes Foundation was sufficiently impressed with the project to offer some initial funding to encourage development of a full strategy. The Business Alliance for Local Living Economies (a kind of national parent organization to SFA) assisted with additional funds and Santa Fe County is also on board.
Now SFA is working with regional communities, farming and energy stakeholders and the Santa Fe Complex to create a detailed model of how money and energy flow in the northern New Mexico regional food system.
"We'll use the results to create and implement a platform for fostering targeted innovation and entrepreneurship within the food community," Pozzebon says. "The result will be a scalable system, with potential national application, that enables food growers and consumers to work together cooperatively to reduce the carbon-based energy intensity of our food and increase the local retention of food dollars."
Because I process information better on a full stomach, I connived an invitation to dinner at Pozzebon's house with a few of the partners and stakeholders that fit into SFA's ambitious plan. Over a meal of plump, perfectly moist, locally raised chickens and hearty winter vegetables, Pozzebon and Wroth described challenges, potential solutions and next steps in moving toward a more localized economy. Other guests included Robin Seydel, membership coordinator for La Montañita Co-op; Sarah Noss, executive director of the Farmers Market Institute; Kate Manchester, editor and publisher of Edible Santa Fe; Kathleen Chambers, team leader of SFA's Farm to Restaurant Project; and independent energy guru Mark Sardella, executive director of Local Energy.
Eating with these people is like going for a dip with Olympic swimmers: Their knowledge of the traditions, culture and economic impact of food is expansive. Listening to the conversation arc around the table, it became clear that the much-touted flavor and nutritional benefits of eating fresh, local food are almost coincidental by-products to the real value of supporting our regional farmers. Food, and the energy required to produce it, are basic building blocks in the game of existence. Small-scale farmers—unlike their mono-cropping counterparts in big agri-business—are de facto stewards of land and water, requiring balance and conservation for consistent, bountiful harvests.
Most such farmers, however, are wedged into an economic girdle often derisively called "boutique" farming. Farmers have a shot at making a living if they can carve out a niche at the Santa Fe Farmers Market or sell wholesale to La Montañita—relatively wealthy Santa Fe can afford high prices for produce. Meanwhile, rural communities, where much of the food is produced, have little access to it. The effect is not only unfair, but it reinforces a cultural bias that natural, organic and local foods have a limited market of privileged consumers. The key to kicking that particular Humpty Dumpty off the wall is a new paradigm of the distribution network.
SFA's Farm to Restaurant program has already been facilitating relationships between food producers and chefs and restaurant owners for some time. Santa Fe has an abundance of restaurants that are dedicated to cooking with local ingredients, a practice that has blossomed over the past few years as supply has increased and networks have extended. One of the best ways to become familiar with just how good fresh local food can be is to visit one of the many restaurants in Santa Fe that use such ingredients for the majority of their supplies. Such a visit not only offers a satisfying meal and a few hints on creative ways to prepare local offerings, but reinforces the larger economic picture: The restaurant is a revolving money hub that gives money to local farms, waitstaff, and the craftspeople who built the bar and the sconces and finished the floor. It also facilitates the deals its patrons make over local business lunches. Maybe the paintings on the wall are for sale. Maybe the wine and beer are from local producers as well. Instead of watching those food dollars flee from the community, one can almost taste the money being reinvested into wealth for everyone.
The goal of the Regional Food and Fuels Project is to compound the effects of such relationships into a more expansive network of farmers, markets, restaurants, local governments and other stakeholders in order to extend the distribution of foods on a truly regional basis, including into disadvantaged, rural areas, while maximizing efficiency and shared resources.
As I wash my dinner down with a glass of surprisingly good New Mexico wine, the dream of access to a considerably more local diet for everyone seems reasonable. Using that as the building block for a substantively more energized system of local economies that benefits New Mexico across the board even seems remotely possible.
Pozzebon has just about enough moxie to pull it off, Steve Warshawer says. Warshawer is the enterprise development coordinator for La Montañita Co-op. He helps identify and create new relationships with farmers and food producers of all kinds, and he helps coordinate the distribution efforts of the co-op. But he's also a farmer. Warshawer runs Beneficial Farm, one of the oldest CSA (community supported agriculture) programs in the state. Beneficial distributes straight to its members—individuals, families or restaurants that have purchased shares in the farm's harvest. Recently, he tweaked the model to be more cooperative: Members receive goods from a network of small farms.
Rather than sitting in what passes for a lush valley in New Mexico, Beneficial Farm is on a mesa top, situated among rocks and forest. It looks better for harvesting firewood than vegetables. But Warshawer's farm exemplifies the merger of food and fuels. The farm is entirely off the grid, supported by solar power and aided by lots of water harvesting. Abundant chickens, cows and llamas roam the farm and long furrows of tilled earth, placed on the contours of a natural, sloped opening, stand ready for spring planting.
As we walk the grounds, Warshawer describes the stewardship that had been mentioned over the dinner I attended. He speaks about a vision for tending to the wild landscape, for maintaining the health of native grasses and being as diligent about forestry as about soil and husbandry. Tending to his farm while also working for La Montañita, Warshawer is aware of both the challenge of growing enough food in New Mexico to realistically serve any significant portion of the populace and of setting up effective-enough distribution mechanisms to deliver it. He describes the 300 mile "foodshed" that La Montañita uses to map its local region and talks in detail about the necessity of greenhouses to extend the growing seasons, and better relationships with southern New Mexico producers and neighboring states.
It's a huge, daunting task to think of what SFA wants to do with the Regional Food and Fuels Project, but Warshawer has thrown his full support behind it. He is participating in a request to the United States Department of Agriculture for additional funding for the project and he's participating in all of the project's stakeholder meetings.
On March 3, SFA hosted a forum at the Santa Fe Complex that was attended by more than 100 farmers and ranchers, renewable energy wonks, policy folks, interested and conscious consumers, Farmers Market and Farmers Market Institute board members, restaurant owners and other business owners.
People are more energized than intimidated at the scope and import of what's involved. Over the coming months, similar forums will be held in Dixon, Española, Los Alamos and the southern part of Santa Fe County to pull more stakeholders into the process, gather more data points and build a plan for implementing a vaster network of regional economic partnerships.
It's a new era of possibility," Warshawer says. "Who knows what it will bring?" Warshawer himself has a sandwich board message—but it doesn't claim the end is nigh—it says "meet me every Thursday, and I'll give you a big bag of food."
The guy wearing the sandwich board that reads "the end is nigh" has the easy job.

Two arrested on drug charges
A North Strabane Township man wanted in the state of Indiana for making crystal methamphetamine and a Canonsburg woman were arrested Feb. 6 for allegedly selling the drug to a confidential informant.
David Matthew McCloskey, 39, of Crawford Street, and Lauren Curtain, 30, of Peco Street, were taken into custody following a traffic stop.
Their arrests came after police in Canonsburg and North Strabane Township, the federal Drug Enforcement Agency and Washington County District Attorney's Drug Task Force detectives learned that McCloskey might be making crystal meth, said Canonsburg police Sgt. Al Coghill.
"We were getting reports that McCloskey, who is wanted for the same thing in Indiana, was selling crystal meth," Coghill said. "We knew that McCloskey and Curtain were friends. We had already purchased heroin from Curtain in the past, so we started placing orders for crystal meth."
Coghill said McCloskey accompanied Curtain last week when she made a delivery of the drugs. An order for a delivery was placed for Feb. 6, and both of them showed up, police said.
"We haven't been able to determine if he was making the crystal meth or where he was getting it," Coghill said. "Crystal meth has been all around us, but this is the first time we've seen it in Canonsburg.
"It is alarming because we don't know who he has been with and how it was being cooked," the detective added. "It is also alarming because he was recruiting people to buy it."
Coghill said McCloskey had been keeping a low profile because of the outstanding warrant. He believes the 39-year-old had been in the Canonsburg area for several months.
Both were arraigned before District Judge David Mark. McCloskey is charged as a fugitive from justice and was placed in the Washington County jail without bond. Curtain was arraigned on a warrant obtained by Coghill for her alleged previous sales of heroin to confidential informants. She was placed in jail on $25,000 bond. Both face additional charges from the alleged drug transaction.
Coghill said the investigation is continuing.

2 . Wax Side Behind Ear
Apply a small amount of wax to your fingertips, then place it at the roots above your ear and drag it through as you pull your hair behind your ear.

Apply wax to the palms of your hands, and then starting at the top-back area, drag your hands forward, flattening your hair down as you go. For a wetter look use more wax.

Using the corner of your comb and standing in front of a mirror find the middle of your left eye and then drag the comb straight up slowly until you reach your hairline and then continue back in a straight manner to achieve an even left part. A side part is great for longer face shapes because it creates the illusion of width.

An Eighty Four man accused of intentionally ramming his vehicle into a vehicle driven by a Bentleyville woman earlier this month was arraigned Friday on charges including aggravated assault by motor vehicle.
Carl Thomas Ornot, 60, of 24 Sugar Run Road, is accused of deliberately hitting a vehicle driven by Kiva Huffman Feb. 10 as she drove on West Patterson Road and then at the intersection with Brownlee Road, North Strabane Township.
Huffman told North Strabane police Sgt. Keith Hutter that she and Ornot are acquaintances. She said that when she called to check on Ornot, he did not sound right, so she drove over to his home to check on him.
While Huffman was at the home, she and Ornot reportedly got into an argument, so she left the house, Hutter said.
Huffman pulled to the side of the road to get something out of her purse when she saw Ornot coming down the road at a high speed. She reportedly pulled back on to the road and he started banging his vehicle into hers, allegedly trying to force her into a ditch, Hutter said.
When Huffman got to the intersection of Brownlee, she stopped and made a left turn. Ornot pulled on the left side and his vehicle struck hers, knocking both into a guard rail, the sergeant said.
Huffman initially refused treatment after the crash but later went to Canonsburg General Hospital where she was treated for a head injury, Hutter said.
Ornot is also charged with reckless endangerment and several traffic violations. He was arraigned before District Judge Jay Weller and released on his own recognizance with an order to have no contact with Huffman. A preliminary hearing is set for March 5 before Weller.

Here we are, not quite halfway through January, one of seven months with 31 days. It is a month Colette, the French novelist and performer, referred to as a "month of empty pockets." Remarkabale! She must have had a Christmas like mine. But as this author of the novel, "Gigi," said, "..let us endure this evil month."
For me, enduring this January in particular will be bittersweet. The Steelers are not in the playoffs, and that is the bitter part. The sweet aspect is that I can watch the NFL playoffs without having anxiety attacks, apoplexy and swearing at the television to the point no one in my household will come anywhere near me.
"Why don't you go to a sports bar and watch these games," my wife said during one game, probably the one in which the Steelers had 50 turnovers against the Browns. Too late for this season, but finding an accommodating tavern is something I will seriously ponder for next season.
Now with the Steelers out of the picture and the NHL lockout resolved, is it go Penguins? Of course, that means more anxiety and the inevitable profanity hurled at the TV screen. Surely, people watch hockey at sports bars, too.
But enough about sports in January. Frankly, it is month with a host of significant events and some rather bizarre and unique holidays
It is a month for Capricorns and Aquarians.
On this date, Jan. 13, Jonathan Swift was ordained an Anglican priest in Ireland in 1695; in 1920, a New York Times editorial falsely reports rockets can never fly; in 1943, Hitler declares "total war"; the Beatles release the "Yellow Submarine" album in 1969; an Air Florida jet crashes into the 14th Street Bridge in Washington, D.C., and falls into the Potomac River in 1982, killing 78; and the Cowboys beat the Bills in Super Bowl XXVII in 1993.
Obviously, I didn't know these facts off the top of my head. So, on a cold January day, if you find there is nothing to do, try a little research. It can be quite a learning experience. Did you know that today is "Make Your Dream Come True Day" ? I'm not sure if this has anything to do with Martin Luther King Day that is celebrated on Jan. 21.
Oh, and if anyone is looking send a greeting card this month, wish someone a happy Hot Tea Month, or a happy National Oatmeal Month, or my favorite, a happy National Bath Safety Month.
I guess January really isn't all that evil when you come to think about it.
Last night, a Greene County young lady, Elissa McCracken, competed in the Miss America Pageant. Congratulations Elissa, no matter where you finished.
So, as we continue to plod through this month, keep in mind that February, the shortest month of the year, is 19 days away.
Doesn't something happen on the 14th? Guess I will have do some more research.
