AICN Toys Exclusive!! Behold The Marvel Select: AVENGERS Movie Hawkeye Action Figure!!
John Ary here with a real treat.
Zach Oat over at Diamond Select Toys has given Ain't It Cool the exclusive first look at the new Marvel Select: Avengers Movie Hawkeye Action Figure.
Gentle Giant designed and sculpted the the world's greatest marksman. It features the likeness of Jeremy Renner in the 7-inch-scale, his trademark bow and arrows, and 16 points of articulation.
The figure also comes with a detailed display base that combines with the base of the mystery movie villain figure to create a scene from the movie. He will only be available on the specialty market starting in May along with Marvel Select versions of Hulk and the mystery villain.
He's available for pre-order here.

I really don't like this leather costume look with no mask. Don't like!

Nobody's going to want that

This figure will be less popular than the Frodo figure from LOTR.

Looks too much like one of the movie X-Men outfits!
by Clavius
Needs more purple.
Jan. 25, 2012, 1:23 p.m. CST
Potential buyers: Jeremy Renner's mom, uh... let's see...
by spacehog
I feel so bad for this guy. And by ''guy'' I'm not sure if I mean Renner or the character of Hawkeye. But if this weren't a specialty toy I'd expect to see it in every Wal-Mart's clearance bin for the next three years.
Jan. 25, 2012, 1:30 p.m. CST
Superheroes with weapons makes me go ... huh?
by FrodoFraggins
I actually liked Hawkeye for about a week as a kid. but I really don't understand Superheroes with bows or guns.
Jan. 25, 2012, 1:32 p.m. CST
Like many of you, I was hoping for at least subtle hints of purple woven into the texture of the costume.
by The Reluctant Austinite
It didn't have to bright purple or all purple, but just some dark purple straps or something. It's fine the way it is, but it isn't Hawkeye. It's just some guy with a bow and arrows.

appear sad that he's the mascot? Maybe they'll give him a mask so they don't have to see his sour puss around the building.

insert 7 inch jeremy renner joke here
by zom-bot.com
no really, i mean insert it. i bet he has a hard point on the end of that shaft. and his quiver full of artillery ready to be shot...makes me quiver. not gay or anything.
Jan. 25, 2012, 1:54 p.m. CST
it doubles as the action fig for his Hansel and Gretel movie too
by zom-bot.com
swear to god, when he was done for the day at the avengers soundstage, he just wore the same shit over to the Hansel and Gretel lot and they maybe put a jacket on him.

Thank you for making my day. Haha!
Jan. 25, 2012, 1:57 p.m. CST
and i mean at least give him a mask SOMEWHAT like hawkeye had.
by zom-bot.com
or goggles..or something over his eyes (besides cool guy shades) to at least make him resemble a marvel character. explain it away that the eye slits help him focus on the target, block the glare from the sun when shooting, or zoom and are all high-techy and shit- like catwoman's goggles.... was that too much to ask? make him like batman and green arrow combined.
Jan. 25, 2012, 1:58 p.m. CST
Looks almost like Colin Firth.

Jan. 25, 2012, 2:01 p.m. CST
how does hawkeye explain his employment with SHIELD?
by zom-bot.com
when asked what makes him so special, he explains that he's an excellent marksman. When pestered that there are tons of agents and soldiers that are an excellent shot, he defends that he can do it with a bow and arrow. When told that Bullseye can hit a target with any object and make it deadly, Hawkeye says SHUT UP, Okay...I'm Nick Fury's Leather Twink. There! I said it!! *sob*
Jan. 25, 2012, 2:03 p.m. CST
Really? No mask at all?

These were the types of figures I used as "regular people"
by fat_rancor_keeper
....when i was a kid. Just a plain old boring guy...maybe I'd use him as a citizen for Bebop and Rocksteady to take hostage or to sit in the audience and watch Machoman Randy savage vs hacksaw Jim Duggan kill each other.
Jan. 25, 2012, 2:11 p.m. CST
16 points of articulation and that's the promo pose they're going with?
by zom-bot.com
jesus guys, i'm a laid-off creative...hire me to pose and sell this shit for you. 16 points of articulation on a boring ass character figure and nobody thinks to pose him ready to launch an arrow, his only strongsuit?
Jan. 25, 2012, 2:11 p.m. CST
The original costume...
by ZOMBRE
would have looked less homosexual than that. He looks dressed up to go clubbing.
Jan. 25, 2012, 2:11 p.m. CST
his pose is almost 'threatened and bucking up from an insult'
by zom-bot.com
Jan. 25, 2012, 2:13 p.m. CST
Because no one on the talkback has done it yet, allow me: Meh.
by Chuck_Chuckwalla
This figure looks too generic for any kid to want. I don't know why they go to the trouble of doing an Avengers movie and not design the costume to look like it does in the comics. I don't care that it won't be realistic. I WANT A SUPERHERO FILM. MAKE THEM LOOK LIKE SUPERHEROES.

black, techy straps that sheen purple, have purple threading etc
by zom-bot.com
arm bands that accentuate his muscles and carry cargo, a utility belt of various arrow tips and other shit...a mask that can be explained as being functional, all these things were done with the character in the comics.....obviously Joss didn't read any hawkeye material or like him. my theory is he's a turncoat in this. hawkeye was a villain at some point in comics history. he'll probably go bad and then redeem himself in this one movie, and they think that's enough to make his character interesting. shit, black widow is just a piece of ass with deadly gadgets and gymnastic/fighting ability...but at least she has those two things.

by zom-bot.com
they say that 15 years after they kill the witch as children, they become witch hunters. shouldn't they become hunters of bad parents that abandon their children, and bring them to justice? it wasn't the witch's fault their deadbeat parents left them in the woods. witches gotta eat.

aaaaand at 3;40 eastern, this topic is officially dead.
by zom-bot.com
Sorry jeremy- it's not your fault. I really liked you in Hurt Locker and 28 weeks later. Just don't get typecast as the sensitive, quiet, mysterious grunt. you are better than this. I hope they kill off hawkeye and you are free to pursue better things.
Jan. 25, 2012, 3:01 p.m. CST
she's such a role model for little girls, you know.

Actually, it's a pretty functional outfit for an archer.
by cookylamoo
Especially if his thing is hiding in the darkness and sniping people like he does in "Thor". I mean if I ran a super-hero team that's how I'd use the archer, as a long range sniper who feathers the bad guys you're having a brawl with.

I prefer medieval tabard, chainmail,
by Bedknobs and Boomsticks
and pointy domino Hawkeye, in purple. The more flamboyant a superhero, the better. And I say flamboyant and not gay, because most gay guys I've ever known dress like yuppies or jocks.

Debate: Do abstinence until marriage programs work?
Ok studies shown from the link below prove that the program is not only ineffective but unethical, and causes poor health.
Point One there was sex before there was marriage.
Second sex until marriage will not stop people from having martial issues or divorce. Ex a friend of mine has a step mom who took abstinence and got married she stayed with him for years and quit because she was really unhappy.
Third an final point is though research comparing Europian culture and ours it shows that forcing abstinence on our youth without actual sex education, not only pyschology damage and conflict with parents, but forces kids to learn about sex from their peers.
There's a documentary about it called "Let's talk About Sex."
Just type into goggle "let's talk about sex documentary" or look below

Gordon Barker 10+Nov 13 2012: Not having sex before marriage is just asking for trouble.
First of all, its important to know if all your various bits fit together well
Compatibility is important to find out before its too late
If you live in the snowy prairie its a great aerobic activity for the weekends.
Its also better if you live together before marriage as well.
Then you can discover if your underwear draped in the bathroom habits annoy your potential spouse or not.

KALAMAZOO (WKZO) -- The Kalamazoo School Board has selected Mollie Peterson to fill a vacancy on the board of trustees, caused by the death of former trustee Lonnie Duncan.
Board members praised the ten applicants, saying they all brought special qualifications to the table and they were urged to run in this fall's election for school board. .
In the end they voted 6 to 0 for Peterson because of her experience.
Board members said she was a strong advocate for children and she will be able to hit the ground running when she rejoins the board.
Petersen was first appointed to the board in 2005 and then won her own term.
Peterson says she would run again this fall to keep the seat.

Occupy Wall Street & Self-Publishing
In New York City, the Occupy Wall Street library workers are building the first Occupy Wall Street Poetry Anthology. They published with a simple motto: "Poetry illuminates the soul of Occupy Wall Street."
Last year, I wrote an essay for The Believer about the Raven Poetry Circle, a scrappy group of poets that sold poems in Washington Square Park during the Great Depression. Just like the OWS library, they self-published The Raven Anthology every month. In times of economic downturn, more writers should self publish community writing projects like these—they produce vital work during these tough times.
Here's more about the Depression-era poets:
Francis Lambert McCrudden, a retired telephone worker, founded the Raven Poetry Circle in the early 1930s. He scowled in most group photos, and his poetry championed the value of hard work despite the ruined economy. He composed an epic poem called "The Nickel Snatcher," an ode to his old telephone-company job—extracting millions of coins from pay phones. He once wrote:
The old saw has it, "Riches prove the man."
But the real test is Poverty, by damn.
Am I aware the rhyme is false? I am.
But even so, it tell the truth, by damn.
Francis Lambert McCrudden, a retired telephone worker, founded the Raven Poetry Circle in the early 1930s … McCrudden took his club public in May 1933 with the eccentric idea to sell poetry in Washington Square Park. The Ravens tacked poems to a tall green wall beside a tennis court, peddling verse for pennies. The New York Times called it the world's first "sidewalk Poetry Mart." The fair opened following one of the worst winters in American history, as unemployment hit 25 percent.

In my opinion the top 35 has, made it virtually impossible for new teams to have a realistic chance of competing in the Sprint Cup Series. No corporation is going to be convinced sponsorship is a good thing if there is no quarentee of competing.
On the other hand it has effectively created the franchises that the teams wanted, without having to call them franchises. That may have opened them up to restraint of trade issues.
As I was told several years back, the plan was to have ten teams with four cars each. Looks like they are a little behind schedule.

Close Super Bowl Games Increase Advertising Impact
February 1, 2012 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.
CORVALLIS, Ore., Jan. 31 (UPI) — U.S. advertisers spending big money on ads in the upcoming Superbowl should hope for a close, exciting games for maximum impact of their messages, experts say.
An Oregon State University researcher says viewers consider advertising in a more favorable light after watching a close, exciting sporting event.
"Games with high excitement levels result in a transfer of that emotion to the ads — particularly to ads shown at the end of the game that also have a lot of energy and excitement built in," said Colleen Bee, an Oregon State marketing expert and author of the study published in the Journal of Advertising.
"We expected the outcome of a game to affect a viewer's attitude toward the brand and the ad itself, but we found that whether the favored team won or lost had no real impact.
"It was all about the excitement and intensity of the game," she said in an OSU release Tuesday.
In the study, 112 people watched a collegiate basketball game and viewed ads in the context of either a high-suspense game or a low-suspense game.
"The most important influence we found was the level of suspense, both for the game and the advertisement," Bee said. "An ad with more zip and high energy paired with a close game resulted in increased favorable responses toward the ad and brand."

Hotel Information
Doug Phillips
the Fall of 1998, Doug and his wife Beall founded The
Vision Forum,
Inc. in San Antonio, Texas, devoted to producing books and
tapes to
help build up Christian families. Later, they founded Vision Forum
Ministries, a ministry designed to communicate a vision for the
restoration of the Christian family and the rebuilding of culture for
the glory of God. Much of Doug's time is spent teaching with the hope
to spur on Christian manhood and sacrificial fatherhood, and to see
dads turn their hearts to their wives and children.
In addition to editing and writing numerous books, Doug founded the
Witherspoon School of Law and Public Policy, The Christian Boys'
& Men's Titanic Society, the National Center for
Family-Integrated Churches, the All-American Boy's Adventure Catalog,
the Beautiful Girlhood Collection catalog, and the Vision Forum Family
Books and Media catalog. Doug has appeared on numerous radio and
television shows and has spoken at more than 100 home school
conferences in 42 states.
The greatest joys in Doug's life are his wife Beall and the eight
children that God has graciously given to them: Joshua, Justice,
Liberty, Jubilee, Faith Evangeline, Honor, Providence, and Virginia
Carol Barnier
is a fresh, fun and popular conference speaker. Her objective in all
her communication is to have the wit of Erma Bombeck crossed with the
depth of C. S. Lewis, but admits that, truth be told, most days she
only achieves a solid Lucy Ricardo with a bit of Bob the Tomato.
Frank Sherwin
contributes his scientific expertise to a variety of ICR's publications
on creation science. He is the author of The Ocean Book and co-author
of The Fossil Record: Unearthing Nature's History of Life and The Human
Body: An Intelligent Design, and is one of ICR's most sought-after
and his wife Laura co-chair Christian Family
Schools. Their personal homeschool journey began in 1985. All four of
their children are married and raising families of their own. Even
though the Wojnicki's no longer have children living at home, they are
thoroughly enjoying their nine grandchildren. From their experience,
they have found homeschooling to be the most conducive option for
discipling children, and for this reason they remain involved as
leaders of Christian Family Schools.

SHared Access Research Ecosystem (SHARE) Tenets and Overview
There was not enough time on the webcast to answer all the questions. In the Q&A Supplement, the webcast's speakers and reactors have taken the chance to answer the remaining questions.
This SPEC Kit examines research libraries' print retention decision making strategies related to storage of materials in three different types of facilities or circumstances: on-site, staff-only shelving, remote shelving, and collaborative retention agreements. The survey also examined the decision making and practices surrounding the deaccession of library material. For each retention or deaccession strategy, the survey includes questions on the on-going or project-based nature of the work, the involvement of stakeholders, the selection process and criteria for materials to be retained or deaccessioned, the communication strategy with internal and external audiences, and the responses from the libraries' internal and external audiences to these endeavors. The SPEC Kit includes examples of collection management policies, on-site, off-site, and collaborative shelving strategies, last copy agreements, and procedures for retrieving materials from storage.

On July 18, 2013, 65 privacy and civil liberties groups, sent this letter to the US government, urging them to show greater transparency in NSA requests to web-based service providers for information on users.
On September 30, 2013, 34 more groups (including ARL) signed the letter.
On September 30, 2013, ARL, together with 71 other privacy and civil liberties groups, sent this letter to the US Senate and House Judiciary Committees, calling on Congress to "provide greater transparency around national security-related requests by the US government to Internet, telephone, and web-based service providers for information about their users and subscribers." Based upon such a review, the coalition gives its strong support in favor of the Surveillance Transparency Act of 2013 and the Surveillance Order Reporting Act of 2013.
The coalition sent the letter to urge Congress to hold hearings for these bills, and it was a follow up to the July 18 letter (PDF) that the coalition wrote to the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Princeton, 1984.
Michelle Obama attends and promotes a "Black Solidarity" event for guest lecturer Manning Marable, who was, according to Cornel West, probably "the best known black Marxist in the country." The event is the work of the Third World Center (TWC), a campus group whose board membership is exclusively reserved for minorities.
The board also had representatives from the various minority organizations on campus, including Accion Puertorriquena y Amigos, the Asian-American Students Association, the Black Graduate Caucus, and the Chicano Caucus, among others. She also fundraised for the TWC by participating in its African-themed fashion show and fundraisers (see picture here). It was a controversial and racially-charged organization. And in looking at the group's racial focus before and during Michelle's tenure, we get a glimpse of her priorities while at Princeton.
"White Students on This Campus Are Racist"
If ever there was an example of the TWC governing board's obsession with race, an editorial from October 21, 1981 is it. The members took great offense to an op-ed titled "Rebuilding Race Relations," calling the article "racist, offensive, and inaccurate" for daring to question the group's true commitment and to present a thesis on race relations counter to its own.
"The word RE-building implies that race relations once existed and, for some mysterious reasons, fell apart … ," the board wrote in a scathing letter to the editor. "We, on the other hand, believe that race relations have never been and still are not at a satisfactory level. We are not RE-building. We cannot RE-build something that never existed in the first place."
"Don't hide behind excuses such as a lack of effort [to integrate with the Princeton campus] on our part," the revealing letter added."The bottom line is that white students on this campus are racist, but they may not realize it." [Emphasis added]
Princeton itself, however, was concerned about the self-segregation by black students and proposed reforms to counter it, including no longer permitting black students to all room together in one dorm and integrating black freshmen into the general student body. The TWC strenuously opposed all of these reforms, arguing that integration of non-white students would harm the "support system" available to them, especially blacks. (Julie Newton, "TWC criticizes CURL plan: Minority strife would worsen," The Daily Princetonian, October 21, 1981).
While Michelle was not a part of the board in 1981, as a board member of the Third World Center starting on April 7, 1983 she joined in a different racially-charged statement reproaching the college for not doing enough to hire "Latino administrators." In a letter a few weeks later, the TWC attacked Princeton's administration for not replacing Hector Delgado, a minority dean of students.
"This search needs to produce another experienced individual who is of minority background, preferably Latino, and who will be responsive to the concerns of Third World Center as well as the student body at large," the TWC's governing board wrote.
Others on campus took notice of the group's calls and expressed concern.
For example, Fred Foote — the editor of Prospect magazine, a conservative monthly publication — criticized the TWC and Delgado for their obsessive focus on race.
"[Delgado's] penchant for drawing campus issues along racial lines—a penchant shared by the TWC and The Daily Princetonian—is the chief cause of racial strife on campus," he wrote.
A Culture of Racial Focus
The TWC's racialism extended beyond who could become an officer in the group . Although the TWC served a number of roles on campus and was a hangout spot for minorities, its focus was mostly political. Its various constitutions make this clear. To quote the 1983 version:
The term 'Third World' implies[,] for us, those nations who have fallen victim to the oppression and exploitation of the world economic order. This includes the peoples of color of the United States, as they too have been victims of a brutal and racist economic structure which exploited and still exploits the labor of such groups as Asians, Blacks, and Chicanos, and invaded and still occupies the homelands of such groups as the Puerto Ricans, American Indians, and native Hawaiian people. We therefore find it necessary to reeducate ourselves to the various forms of exploitation and oppression. We must strive to understand more than just the basics of human rights. We must seek to understand the historical roots and contemporary ramifications of racism if Third World people are to liberate themselves from the economic and social chains they find themselves in.

Phasers weren't the only things set to stun when it was announced that Star Trek director J.J. Abrams would also be directing Episode VII in the Star Wars franchise. Fans of the two properties — who have long feuded over which franchise enjoyed true sci-fi superiority — did not quite know what to make of the same man now commanding both ships, so to speak. But what does the most famous face from Star Trek think about Abrams defecting over to the dark side…so to speak? READ FULL STORY

Michael Ansara, Kang on 'Star Trek', dies at 91
Michael Ansara, the actor best known for playing Kang, a Klingon warrior on three versions of Star Trek, died Wednesday at the age of 91 at his home in Calabasas, CA. The Hollywood Reporter first reported the news.
Exclusive: 'Star Trek Into Darkness' hits Blu-ray and DVD on...
This fall, your TV will boldly go where no TV has gone before.
EW can exclusively reveal that J.J. Abrams's Star Trek Into Darkness will be released on DVD, Blu-ray, Blu-ray 3D, and On Demand on September 10, 2013. A digital download of the film will be available three weeks earlier, on August 20.
"I'm thrilled with how everything looks and sounds," Abrams said in a statement. "We also have some really fun behind-the-scenes special features that we shot on the Red [Epic cameras] and created entirely in-house at Bad Robot. They really look amazing and unlike anything I've seen on DVD or Blu-ray before."
Those special features include making-of shorts about creating the Red Planet and the Klingon home world of Kronos, as well as a sit-down with stars Zachary Quinto and Benedict Cumberbatch — and a segment called "The Enemy of My Enemy," which explores "how, and why, the identity of the film's true villain was kept a mystery to the very end."
Check out a clip from the Zachary Quinto-produced comedy 'Breakup at a Wedding' -- EXCLUSIVE VIDEO
Pretty much everything which could go wrong at a wedding does so in the new movie Breakup at a Wedding — and every hiccup is diligently captured through the videographers' lenses in this found footage comedy. The film was directed by Victor Quinaz and stars his brother Philip and Alison Fyhrie as the unfortunate betrothed couple. The movie's producers, meanwhile, include Zachary Quinto. Yes, that Zachary Quinto (although, to be honest, I've yet to hear of another one).
Spock faces peril in new 'Star Trek Into Darkness' clip -- VIDEO
The latest clip from Star Trek Into Darkness doesn't reveal a whole lot more about the general plot, but it does give us a peek onto the bridge of the USS Enterprise.
From the trailers we've already seen, we know there will be a lot of peril, and in this scene it's Spock whose life is in danger at the mouth of an active volcano. Beaming him back to the ship seems impossible, based on what the engineer and pilot are saying. And Bones, the king of real talk, delivers the most dramatic line of the clip: "He'd let you die."

Leonard Nimoy, Terry Gilliam, Richard Donner, John Carpenter, Neil Gaiman and Edgar Wright are among the starry names that will bring universes of imagination together at the EW CapeTown Film Festival (April 30 – May 6) in Los Angeles, the editors of Entertainment Weekly announced Friday.
Those guests, along with the previously announced appearance by Kurt Russell and the anniversary screenings of Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, represent a powerful line-up for the inaugural CapeTown festival, which shares its name with EW.com's recently launched hub for sci-fi and fantasy coverage.
CapeTown has covered the news in pop culture's most vivid sectors since January, but now it is making news with the appearance of Nimoy, the television and film icon who returns from retirement for one night and one night only on May 6, the finale night of the festival. Nimoy will be interviewed on stage by Geoff Boucher, the EW senior writer who programmed the festival, and the Q&A will have a tie-on screening of Star Trek, the 2009 J.J. Abrams hit that represents Nimoy's farewell to the cinematic universe of Starfleet.
The festival, a co-presentation with the American Cinematheque, will be staged at the historic Egyptian Theater, the grand old movie palace that introduced a Tinseltown tradition in 1922 when it rolled out the carpet for Robin Hood and Douglas Fairbanks for the first Hollywood world premiere. All ticket and concession proceeds from the EW CapeTown Film Festival go to the non-profit Cinematheque.
The seven-day program of screenings and on-stage Q&As is sponsored by TNT's Falling Skies, which will be given a special big-screen showcase on May 3 when the season 3 premiere is included as a bonus treat to fans attending the screening of Escape from New York. The full schedule is available here.
'Star Trek' to 'Star Wars': J.J. Abrams across the universes
J.J. Abrams is a man of many enthusiasms, so speaking slowly is generally not his thing. But today the director arrives late for lunch at the dining facility of his company, Bad Robot, in Santa Monica. He's carrying a plate of pasta, wearing an apologetic expression, and actually searching for words.
"I'm sorry," he says, by way of an opener. "With today, it's awkward. Or it's going to be. Super awkward."
Abrams is here to discuss Star Trek Into Darkness (out May 17; not yet rated), the 3-D sequel to his 2009 hit Star Trek and an all-but-certain popcorn powerhouse for 2013. Over the years he's turned Bad Robot into a hub for storytellers, artists, and digital dreamers — an Algonquin with action figures and board games lining the shelves. And right now the whole building is alive and humming with postproduction work on the movie. But in a couple of minutes, Abrams explains sheepishly, there's going to be a sonic boom when an industry website reports that he has agreed to direct Star Wars: Episode VII, the first Jedi film that will take the saga beyond the Viking funeral of the redeemed Darth Vader.
Abrams punctuates his explanation with one word: "Madness." It's a solid choice. READ FULL STORY
'Star Trek Into Darkness' motion poster features ominous Benedict Cumberbatch voiceover
Paramount is gradually ramping up their mystery-filled promotion for Star Trek Into Darkness. J.J. Abrams' highly anticipated sequel to his 2009 reboot of the franchise just got a motion poster that meshes together some elements of the movie's first teaser and first poster.
Check out the living one-sheet that features rubble-as-Star Trek insignia and a Benedict Cumberbatch voiceover below (and no, there are still no more clues about who he's playing. Did you really think there would be?). READ FULL STORY
'Star Trek Into Darkness' coming to IMAX two days early
Star Trek Into Darkness opens on the big screen in theaters on May 17, but it will hit the very big screen two days earlier. EW has confirmed that Paramount has finalized a deal with IMAX to release the Trek preboot-sequel onto IMAX screens on May 15. Translation: If you want to be the first kid on your block to find out if Benedict Cumberbatch is playing Khan, you'll have to pay the low, low price of 37 dollars for an IMAX 3D ticket, not including popcorn.

From Diane Louise Jordan, presenter of The Sunday Hour.
The sentiment 'you can't judge a book by its cover" couldn't be more true of the candidates on BBC3's Snog, Marry, Avoid who go to extensive lengths to disguise what they really look like, even if their fake style repels, or at the very least persuades others to avoid them.
The premise of the programme is to transform, into natural beauties, those who've overdone faking their looks, by giving them a "make-under."
A prime example was Melissa, a young woman who deliberately fashioned an aggressive punk style to keep people at arms length. Apparently she enjoyed looking intimidating, professing not to care what anyone said about her.
Initially her bravado was convincing but it soon became apparent that her cover-up was a protective defence against years of being bullied.
Her make-under was a radical transformation resulting in unprecedented praise and admiration, which she gratefully received - that boosted her confidence.
Now Melissa may be an extreme an example of faking it, but every day we're flooded with stories of celebs and others who contort and distort their looks in order to find favour.
And a bit closer to home I confess, even though most would describe me as natural, I too am susceptible to a degree of fakery. On my wedding day I wore modest, but fake, eyelashes, and today I'm sporting extension braids!
However the Bible says Jesus had "not beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him", and yet he was a people magnet.
So perhaps we should follow his example and relish in who we really are - who knows we might discover (like the candidates on Snog, Mary and Avoid) that we too are even more attractive!

Not so much "a moment" as a "series of moments that provided a greater moment further down the line".
Going through my second char for leveling and I'd decided to switch facions and try an alliance hunter. Happily leveling away for a while and then I hit 40 and get mail. Confused the hell out of me considering I'd only used leather throughout the whole 1-60 leveling previously. So, happy with my new ability for better armor, I went out and swapped everything I had some mail items.
Eventually I got a bit bored of STV and went back to my main for some proper raiding. A few years later, after gaining a fair bit of knowledge about the game, I decide to look at that hunter again.
Wish I hadn't.
My choices in these mail upgrades had been literally anything thats mail, so proudly carrying pieces "of the bear" "of the whale". Think agility was almost my lowest stat.
Just that moment of looking back at how bad I used to be at this game shocked me.

This is kinda fun. It reminds me of something that happened today. I came across a broken candy cane on the ground in the parking lot at Scottsdale Fashion Square mall. It had a tiny Santa attached and the whole thing looked like a Kris Kringle crime scene. So I rearranged the whole thing and took a morbid little photo of the whole thing and — well — now I don't feel quite so weird?
Sofa King awesome. Check out some of the projects they're doing.

Really, there's no such thing as a "blues" chord. A chord is a chord - and any chord can be used in a blues progression or song. The only name a chord has is its actual name, like: C, C7, Dm, Fmaj7 etc...
A chord is three or more notes sounded together. It's that simple!. A chord can be as simple as a three note triad, all the way up to a fancy jazz chord like G13+9. Chords have a letter name, it's root and type information indicating the type of chord and any alterations or extensions or upper partials.
Here are a few suggested lessons on chord alterations and extensions or upper partials.
There is, such a thing as a "blues" chord progression. But not just any progression is "Blues" progression. For a progression to be a blues progression, specific chords or their direct substitutes must appear at particular spots in the progression. We call this post chords.
The 12-bar blues is one of the most popular chord progressions in popular music, including the blues. The blues progression has a distinctive form in lyrics and phrase and chord structure and duration. It is, at its most basic, based on the I-IV-V chords of a key.
The blues can be played in any key. Mastery of the blues and rhythm changes are "critical elements for building a jazz repertoire".
Here is a 12 bar blues chord progression in the key of C major.
The C, F and G chords are the I, IV and V chords in the key of C major. Here are all the chords, as triads for the key of C major: C, Dm, Em, F, G, Am, and B°
The V chord, the G can commonly be a 4-part 7th chord. Sometimes called a dominant seventh. In the key of C major the V chord can be a G7 chord.
Here is a lessons taking a deeper look into what is a blues progression.
* Post Chords - Measures one, five, seven, nine and eleven are critical measures where the I, IV and V chords MUST appear or their direct substitutions for a progression to remain a blues progression.
We can call these chords and the positions that they must fall in, post chords.
The most common form of a blues chord progression is twelve measures in length containing three, four measure sections:
Totaling 12 measures
While other measure lengths are possible, such as eight and sixteen measures, the twelve measure form is the most common.
The simplest blues would actually be the I chord for the twelve measures. Or, an indeterminate number of measures, as the blues where first sung by the field slaves of the southern states in the USA.

The debate about Graham Hancock's talk
Please use this space to comment on the debate around Graham Hancock's TEDx talk, as described here:
Closing Statement from TED
Thanks to all who participated in this conversation on TED's decision to move Graham Hancock's talk from YouTube to TED.com. It was scheduled as a 2-week conversation, and has now closed. But the archive will remain visible here.
We'd like to respond here to some of the questions raised in the course of the discussion.
Some asked whether this was "censorship." Now, it's pretty clear that it isn't censorship, since the talk itself is literally a click away on this very site, and easily findable on Google. But it raises an interesting question about curation. Should TED play *any* curatorial role in the content it allows its TEDx organizers to promote? We believe we should. And once you accept a role for curatorial limits, you have to accept there will be times when disputes arise.
A number of questions were raised about TED's science board: How it works and why the member list isn't public. Our science board has 5 members -- all working scientists or distinguished science journalists. When we encounter a scientific talk that raises questions, they advise us on their position. I and my team here at TED make the final decisions. We keep the names of the science board private. This is a common practice for science review boards in the academic world, which preserves the objectivity of the recommendations and also protects the participants from retribution or harassment.
Finally, let me say that TED is 100% committed to open enquiry, including challenges to orthodox thinking. But we're also firm believers in appropriate skepticism, or critical thinking. Those two instincts will sometimes conflict, as they did in this case. That's why we invited this debate. The process hasn't been perfect. But it has been undertaken in passionate pursuit of these core values.
The talk, and this conversation, will remain here, and all are invited to make their own reasoned judgement.
Thanks for listening.

Abe EastwoodMar 24 2013: Whether or not you agree with Graham Hancocks presentation and its content. Surely TED viewers are able to make their own decisions to watch or not watch. Perhaps we can all learn something new from approaching problems from different perspectives (perhaps not). But we will never know if we are to afraid to even explore the idea of it.
People are perfectly capable of discernment. I agreed with some of what Hancock said, and disagreed with other parts of it. Life is just like that.

birds, birds, birds
Had a fun evening last week in a ground blind. I didn't see any deer, but song birds kept me company; cardnals, judkos, blue jays, nuthatches, and wrens. The wrens were the best. I heard the birds on the blind looking for bugs and next thing I know I feel something on my back, then my shoulder, then I see it on my chest ( ah ha, a wren!), on my legs and all over the inside of the blind. They visited me several times. I had a truely blessed evening, I didn't even miss not seeing deer ......(well, maybe just a little).
Encounters with nature like yours is what makes me keep wanting to go back.:)
