I have made a utility program that is called by a batch file to go over the generated files and replace certain things.
Some of them are related to includes, some of them are specifically to fix errors that happen in one compiler and not another. For example, "stack<T>> has to be replaced with "stack<T> >" to compile on GCC.
There are also many different versions of Flex/Bison and in my experience they also generate very different code. As a result I refuse to upgrade mine since all upgrades result in a plethora of issues to fix in order to get it running. As such this may no longer be the case, but my version is recent and no longer uses unistd.h. So what I said about it not being able to just compile out-of-the-box may vary depending on your version, but neither of the 2 versions I have used were able to do so, and historically Flex's/Bison's emitted code itself is the problem.

responsible for the peculiar difficulty that
modem teachers meet with when a child
persists in reading his words backwards.
In the common case of reading "was" as
''saw," the child is guided almost wholly by
visual images, and if these fail him he has
no reinforcement. Under the phonic system,
he has learned that the symbol "was" is
called waSj and the same direct association is
set up between visual and auditory centre
as in the case of A. But if he has learned
his alphabet first and has learned to form the
word "was" out of the letters w, a, and Sy
each of which has its own visual-auditory
connection, it is easy to see that his impres-
sion of the word "was" will be three times as
substantial as if he had learned it as a simple
symbol. So that in the first case, where
"was" is a phonogram, if that visual image is
not perfectly clear, when the child meets
those same letters in reverse order, i. e., "saw,"
he simply realises that he has before him the
general shapes that are to sound as "was,"
and pronounces it so. But if he forms his
R.ecvirrent Problems 243
words letter by letter, he is not so apt to make
this confusion, because each letter of the
word conveys its own idea.
In this habit of reading backward, the
phonogram which prevails, and is most
frequently substituted, is, of course, the one
which was learned first or is most often met
with, or for some reason has made the deeper
impression. It sometimes happens that a
child invariably reads **was" for "saw'* and
**saw" for ''was" with the greatest imparti-
ality, and it generally appears that the
meanings of the two phonograms have been
interchanged. Quite as frequently a child will
write "was" for "saw" — keeping our same
example — although he will say it right. He
will do one of two things. The teacher says,
"What is that word?" The child reads cor-
rectly, "was," but writes "saw" and reads
"saw" from what he has written, or he
reads "was, " writes " saw " and reverts again
to "was" when he reads what he has written.
In the first of these two cases, he is clear
enough to read "was" correctly from the
244 TKe BacK-ward CHild
book. When he must write it, however, he
thinks first in terms of separate letters and
their sounds, because he had to learn to write
by letters and not by phonograms; and
coming to write ''was, " the letter 5 being the
last and also the most vivid impression in
*'was," he starts off with that; finally, his
training in phonics suggests the remaining
letters, aw, as familiar shapes in the image
"was." When he reads his own writings
in this first case, he reads what he has actu-
ally written, "saw," because his mental
images of " was " and" saw, " as far as reading
goes, are clear enough for him to distinguish
when he sees them before him.
In the second case, where he writes "was"
as "saw" and then errs again in reading it
as "was," the child is probably so strongly
under the persuasion of what he was told
to write that he does not stop to scrutinise,
but remembering that he was to write "was"
declares that he wrote "was. " In each case
the reason for mis-writing the word is the
R.ec\irrent Problems 245
Still another type of difficulty is spelling
a word orally right, but writing it wrong.
A child may spell "scratch" orally as
s-c-r-a-t-c-h, but write it "search." Or, as
in one case, after spelling correctly he may
write "they" as "ton" and "ton" in turn
as "amy." When a child is asked to spell
a word orally, he first hears the word, then
he visualises it in a more or less conscious
fashion, or else he names the letters whose
sound he has heard and spells phonetically.
These are the two different ways in which
people spell, aided in some degree by memory.
Now if the child spells phonetically the very
fact of speaking the letter guides him in
conforming to the word which he has heard.
But when he comes to write this same word,
he is guided only by the visual image of the
letter he makes and he is apt to confuse the
order of sounds in the word, or in more
extreme cases, to mistake some of the letters
on account of the blurred visual-auditory
connection which has been described. If
he spells by visualising, however, he will be
246 The Backward Child
more likely to spell correctly in writing,
because the shapes of the letters that he
makes guide him in the same way that the
sounds of the spoken letters do the child
who spells by ear.
The infinite variety of these aberrations is
so familiar to the teacher that one need
scarcely apologise for not trying to cover the
multitude of special instances that occur
along these various lines of deviation. Were
they discussed to the finest hair-splitting,
however, the basic principles would remain:
the clarity of the visual and auditory images,
and the formation of an unswerving path
between them.
When a child, therefore, has any difficulty
of the general kind we have been analysing,
one must look first to his fundamental
images and their connections. For this
reason it is best to begin with the alphabet,
and insure a vivid image of each letter
so that the child may build up his words
out of a living substance as it were. Vari-
ous ways of doing this have been sug-
Recxirrent Problems 247
gested in one chapter or another, and still
further devices are described in the chapter
on training.
In the multitude of arithmetical puzzles
which the backward child so ingeniously
contrives to present to his teacher, a few
arise from the same causes that obtain in
reading and writing. When a child can tell
that 9 X 5 = 45, but does not know whether
to put down 4 or 5 first, he has hauled the
right answer out of his memory of the multi-
plication table, but when it comes to writing
it, the symbols are still arbitrary, and if
his mental images are the least bit confused,
he cannot tell whether 4 or 5 stands for
Another case one sometimes meets is that
of a child who can add up a column of figures
which total 31, and give the right answer,
but who will write it down as "13." To
understand the reason for this, one must
realise that arithmetic involves a mental
process quite independent of the symbols it
248 The BacKward Child
Counting is the elaboration of our first
vague perception of the difference between
few and many. The idea of unity first stands
out clearly, and from one, and another
one, and then another one, and so on, we
evolve the process of counting. Arithmetic
in turn is the shorthand of counting, and
necessarily uses certain symbols to stand
for its short cuts. The mental assimilation
of symbols in reading and writing has been
described ; in arithmetic it is a similar process
save that the digits correspond to words
rather than to separate letters. The symbol
5, for instance, conveys a certain idea, but
the letter P conveys no idea at all save as it
is associated with this or that word. But the
ideas conveyed by numbers are limited to
conception of size and quantity, and in this
restricted field they are harder for most
people to grasp than language whose ideas
range over the whole field of sound, colour,
and action.
It is clear that the mathematical processes
of counting and combining can go on without
R^ecurrent Problems 249
reference to the symbols by which they are
expressed. When I write 3 + 2 = 5, I must
first get the answer "in my head" as we say,
and then translate the answer into a digit.
Simple arithmetic is done in two ways:
partly by proof, that is the process of veri-
fication which makes children count on their
fingers, and partly by memory. As we grow
more expert, memory largely takes the place
of proof, so that when I write that 8+7 = 15,
I do not work it out each time, but I remem-
ber that such is the answer that is capable
of proof. So that after this purely mental
process of combination, it remains to express
the result, and we are now at the point of the
same process that the child uses when he is
told to write "A" or "cat." That is to
say, the translation of the idea into the
symbol follows the same course whether it be
numbers or letters.
With these observations, one may consider
the case of the child who adds up a column
correctly to 31, and writes the answer as 13.
Let us suppose the figures to be
250 The BacKward Child
On the one hand we have the child who will
say the answer to be 31 and write it 13, and
on the other is the child who will write the
answer as 31, but who will say that it is 13.
In the first case, the child goes through the
column in his head. "Six and four is ten,'*
he says, "and four is fourteen and two is
sixteen and seven is twenty-three and five is
twenty-eight and three is thirty-one. **
"Thirty-one," he announces.
But the writing of 31 in figures involves
an entirely different set of mental operations,
and, as we have said, when he comes to write
down 31 which he has just spoken, he is about
to put in motion the same train of activities
that are called for by the order to write
* ' was. ' ' And supposing that owing to blurred
IVecurrent Problems 251
visual or auditory images, or ill-defined as-
sociation paths, the child has difficulty with
symbols, he is apt to write 13 for 31 with-
out any more reflection on his powers of
reckoning than writing "saw" for "was"
indicates that he cannot talk straight.
In the second case, where the child adds
the column and writes the answer correctly,
but reads it wrong, we have a condition par-
allel to the one in which he cannot read what
he has written. He adds mechanically 3
and 5 and 7 and so on, very probably count-
ing out the numbers on his fingers, until
he arrives at the end of the column and
writes down 31 . He has learned, that is, and
assimilated the identification of the successive
counts, one, two, three, and so on, with the
figures I, 2, 3; so that it is easy for him as he
adds up the column to translate his results
into figures because he knows the succession
of figures just as he knows the succession of
counts. In other words, if the child were
asked pointblank to write the number 31,
he might perhaps not be able to do it. But
252 The Backward Child
when he arrives at 31 after a process of addi-
tion, the very fact of consecutiveness guides
him in putting down the right figures. In
reading the number he has written, while he
knows 3 and knows i, he is at a loss to express
the combinations, and he is apt to say 13, be-
cause it contains the same figures, and as a
smaller number it is more familiar to him
than 31.
Teachers often wonder why a backward
child who is learning to count will learn 1,2,
3, and always stop at 4, or will always skip
8 and 9, or 13, or whatever number it may
be. It is sometimes possible to explain a
particular freak of this kind in a particular
child, but usually it appears to be quite with-
out rhyme or reason. But after all, it does
not matter why it is this or that number;
what one wants to find out is why it should
be any number at all. And the underlying
reason is always an ill- established associa-
tive connection, which in many prevailing
methods of teaching is made still more vague
by fatigue. Let us suppose the child to
Il.ec\irrent Problems 253
stop persistently at 4 in counting, although
once helped over 4 he can go on. We do not
know why he picked out 4 for a stumbling-
block; perhaps the first pathway between
auditory and speech centre found its way
through a brain area of small plasticity;
perhaps in his particular make-up it is hard
for him to pass in speech from the th sound
in three to the / sound in four. Perhaps a
number of things ; but at all events it is clear
that 4 has not been grasped with the distinct-
ness of the other numbers, and that conse-
quently it must get an especially vivid setting
before it will be grasped. Parrot-like repe-
tition will not serve, nor a repetition of the
same devices which were used to teach the
other numbers, because, having failed to
produce the impression, their effect tends to
be simply one of fatigue. But if the teacher
sets the number 4 in a quite new environment,
by sharply clapping her hands when the
child comes to it, or by flashing a bright
button so that it catches the light, or by
any such device, the number 4 will shortly
254 TKe BacKward Child
establish itself in the natural sequence of
Another complaint is that backward chil-
dren write 30 as 03. In this kind of dif-
ficulty, the teacher must remember that the
child does not reason out the system of
tens, but learns the combination numbers
as ploddingly as the original digits, so that
writing 30 as 03 is an idiosyncrasy of mental
images like the confusion of 6 with 9.
The arithmetical questions discussed here
are a few of the apparent contradictions
which teachers cannot account for in the
face of correct reckoning. The inaccuracies
of actual mathematical thinking have been
discussed under the various mental faculties
which are brought into play. And now,
when the child has come safely through read-
ing, writing, arithmetic, and spelling, he has
passed the chief pitfalls of the mental border-
line. For the rest, supposing his memory
and attention to have been trained into
normal efficiency, the backward child will
progress in history, geography, composition,
Recurrent Problems 255
and so on, in proportion as his own initiative
imagination is stimulated. That is to say,
the teacher who after having brought her
child to a reasonable fluency in the three R*s,
and having diagnosed him with sufficient care
to know that his fundamental faculties have
no gross defect, still finds him dull in his
other school subjects, may be very sure that
the simple principle of making him give
out instead of take in will be effective. It
is the same principle that underlies the
modem cry in education: get something
that interests the child; it is the same prin-
ciple that accounts for the great success of
nature study, because there the child has
some outlet for reaction and expression; it
is the principle of uncovering and encour-
aging the creative instinct, not necessarily
to artistic or literary achievement, but to any
activity in which the mind with its own
materials adds something new to its own
This stimulation of initiative, of the grop-
ing creativeness that is in all of us, I take to
256 THe BacK^rard CHild
be the highest function of education and
its most fascinating impulse. But the daily-
business of education is concerned with
getting enough knowledge and dexterity to
meet the world on its own footing ; and many
who must meet it so are handicapped by some
hitch which like a black thread runs through
all their mental operations. And so it is
that side by side with awakening the child's
imagination and quickening all his responses
must go a very careful search into the funda-
mental workings of his mind, and a daily
hammering at the particular obstacle which
prevents their co-ordination.

" One of the prof oundest and most important pronouncements of
the woman's movement that has yet found expression. . . . Intensely
modern in her attitude, Miss Key has found a place for all the
conflicting philosophies of the day, has taken what is good from each,
has affected the compromise, which is always the road to advance-
ment, between individualism and socialism, realism and idealism,
morality and the new thought. She is more than a metaphysical
philosopher. She is a seer, a prophet. She brings to her aid
psychology, history, science, and then something more — inspiration
and hope." — Boston Transcript.
The Woman Movement

U"". Net $1.50. By mail. $1.65
This is not a history of the woman's movement, but a statement
of what Ellen Key considers to be the new phase it is now entering
on, a phase in which the claim to exert the rights and functions of
men is less important than the claims of woman's rights as the
mother and educator of the coming generation.

David Letterman Joins Jerry Seinfeld on 'Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee'
Two titans of comedy switched roles and the results were gut-busting.
Two titans of comedy switched roles and the results were gut-busting.
Would you pay to see a film based on the classic TV show Seinfeld?
Just what is the deal with Pop Tarts? Jerry Seinfeld lets us in on his private joke-writing technique.
Either as a way to pay homage to the legendary Abbott & Costello or merely a way to confuse the heck out young audiences, 'Late Night' host Jimmy Fallon performed a sequel to the always mind-boggling 'Who's On First?' routine. By his side stood some living legends who successfully delivered the hysterical sketch, making it a complete win.
The sitcom is, and always shall be, an ever-changing art. There exists no perfect formula for success between various three-camera and single-camera efforts over the years. While some may bemoan the heightened situations and laugh tracks of a three-camera outing like the modern 'Big Bang Theory,' others remember how 'Cheers' and 'Seinfeld' among others perfected the format. So according to a recent '60 Minutes' poll, what's the greatest sitcom of all time? Is it as funny as a bag of airline peanuts?
You know, it's been a good long while sinec we've seen Jerry Seinfeld on TV in anything worthwhile (yes, we absolutely refuse to count 'The Marriage Ref'). We know he'll be appearing later this season in an intriguing extended arc on FX's comedy gem 'Louie?' but what's the 'Seinfeld' comedian's new web series all about? The first teaser may or may not provide the answer…

Sri Lanka veteran Kumar Sangakkara will join Jamaica Tallawahs for the final stage of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) first edition. He will be replacing Ahmed Shezhad, who will be joining Pakistan squad for the tour of Zimbabwe.
"I did not expect to be playing the CPL this year, but when Murali telephoned and asked whether I might be interested in playing for the Jamaica Tallawahs I jumped at the chance," Sangakkara was quoted as saying by www.stabroeknews.com.
The 36-year-old has become the fourth Sri Lankan cricketer to play in the CPL. The other three are Muttiah Muralitharan (Jamaica Tallawahs), Mahela Jayawardene (Trinidad and Tobago Red STell) and Lasith Malinga (Guyana Amazon Warriors).
"To play alongside Murali [Muttiah Muralitharan] again will, of course, be a great privilege and it will also be very exciting to bat with Chris [Gayle] rather than being his opponent."
"The Tallawahs have had a great season thus far and I hope I can make a positive contribution as we seek to win the inaugural tournament."
Sangakkara has played for three franchises in the Indian Premier League — Deccan Chargers, Kings XI Punjab and Sun Risers Hyderabad.
The former Sri Lankan captain has played total of 117 Tests, 354 One-Day Internationals (ODIs) and 45 Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is) till now. He led the country to the final of ICC World T20 in England in 2009. They lost in the final at Lord's.
The semi-finals of CPL will be held in Trinidad and Tobago on Thursday and Friday and the final will be held on Saturday.

MONDAY, Feb. 11 (HealthDay News) -- Most young children being treated for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD ) -- either with or without medication -- still have serious symptoms of their condition, according to a new long-term study.
The neurobehavioral disorder interferes with the ability to concentrate. ADHD also causes restlessness, hyperactivity and impulsive behavior, which can have lasting effects on children's intellectual and emotional development.
"ADHD is becoming a more common diagnosis in early childhood, so understanding how the disorder progresses in this age group is critical," study lead investigator Dr. Mark Riddle, a pediatric psychiatrist at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center, said in a Hopkins news release. "We found that ADHD in preschoolers is a chronic and rather persistent condition, one that requires better long-term behavioral and pharmacological treatments than we currently have."
In conducting the study, the researchers followed 186 children ranging from 3 years old to 5 years old who were diagnosed with ADHD. The children were treated for several months for their condition as part of the study before being referred to local pediatricians for ongoing care.
For six years, the researchers monitored the children's behavior, school performance and symptoms of ADHD through detailed reports from parents and teachers. Specifically, they tracked the severity of the three primary ADHD symptoms: inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity.
Children also received thorough check-ups from study clinicians when the research began and again three and six years later.
The study revealed that 90 percent of the children continued to experience symptoms of the condition six years after their diagnosis and ongoing treatment.
Two-thirds of the children were on medication for ADHD. Their symptoms were just as severe as those of the kids who were not taking any drugs. Of participants, 62 percent of the children taking anti-ADHD drugs had significant hyperactivity and impulsivity, compared with 58 percent of children not taking medication. Moreover, 65 percent of children on medication also had serious inattention, compared with 62 percent of children not taking drugs to treat ADHD.
However, the researchers noted that it was not clear if the ADHD drugs the children were taking were ineffective. It's possible, they said, that the children were not taking their medication as directed or they were prescribed the wrong dosage.
"Our study was not designed to answer these questions, but whatever the reason may be, it is worrisome that children with ADHD, even when treated with medication, continue to experience symptoms, and what we need to find out is why that is and how we can do better," Riddle said.
Those children with ADHD who were also diagnosed with oppositional defiant disorder or conduct disorder were 30 percent more likely to experience persistent ADHD symptoms six years after diagnosis than the children who did not have the other disorders, the investigators found.
More than 7 percent of U.S. children are being treated for ADHD, which can interfere with children's relationships with friends and family members as well as their learning, performance in school and physical safety, the researchers said. Experts estimate the condition costs the United States between $36 billion and $52 billion every year.
The study was funded by the U.S. National Institute of Mental Health and published online Feb. 11 in the Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry.

Apart from poker, blackjack and slot machines, the game of roulette has proven itself to be one of the most entertaining and thrilling casino games in the world especially now that you can download roulette games online.
This casino game was developed by Blaise Pascal in France and the word roulette means "small wheel" in French. Roulette can be practically played by anyone because the mechanics of the game are rather easy. The basic idea for you to win a roulette game is for you to make the right guess on which color or number the ball falls after the wheel stops spinning.
At this point in time, those who want to play roulette have now an option to play it anytime and anywhere they want because of download roulette games. A download roulette game such as the pokerStars download roulette, russian roulette download MP3, skype roulette download, touch roulette download and 3D roulette download is made possible through the use of the internet and the creation of online casinos. There is no need for you to travel far and go to casinos or follow some dress code. You don't even have to put up with the drunken players or the noise inside land based casinos. All you ever have to need is a computer and an internet connection and you are all set to download roulette and play it. You can easily download roulette from the internet. When you download roulette, it is rather more convenient and cost effective than playing it the traditional way.
Many people are asking if a download roulette game is as fun as playing it in real gambling establishments. Well, the answer to that question is very simple. It certainly is as exciting and as fun as the ones played in real casino. Basically, nothing is changed when you play download roulette online except for the venue where you will be playing it. Aside from that, when you download roulette games and play them online, you can actually personalize your settings such as the music, sounds, animation and even how you might look while playing download roulette games. You simply have to click some buttons.
The mechanics in playing it in real casino and playing download roulette games are also the same, so, you must be able to become familiar with the rules of the game. You will have to choose from playing American roulette or European roulette download games. You will also have to make use of inside and outside betting systems. You may also use the countless strategies on winning at roulette games. And there are even online systems that would make it easier for you to track the things that occurred during the game.
When you download roulette games or play in online casinos, you can actually play free download roulette or trial games. Land based casinos do not normally give you any kinds of bonuses but online casinos do. These free games are very helpful not only to those who are just beginning to play roulette but also to those who have been playing roulette for quite some time. Playing free download roulette games is a very good way to practice roulette and use some strategies that you have not used before. You can observe better because you won't be feeling any kind of pressure while playing it in case you lose some games.

*Woot Halloween Collection Thanks
3 guys go out and try to collect 500 pieces of candy until they run into some troubles with the local neighbors.
This is my Halloween Flash submission. CandyHolics is my longest and best animation so far. No sound bugs(Fixed most of them), better character art, background art, and smooth animation compared to my other flashes and a re-occuring character. Steve from Connection is back in CandyHolics.
A lot of cameos although...It is Halloween so why not dress-up as your favorite NG artist or character. Also Ed is dressed up as Captain just incase you didn't know what Tankman he was referring to.
I drew all these characters myself; So don't tell me hey you ripped that character or whatever.
====Prior Knowledge====
+Detective Grimoire
+Tankman 2"
+At least know who Wonchop, Blockhead, and the Super flash bros are
+One ring to rule them all
+Need to know who Luis is(Ng Mod and creator of Sketchbook)

Rated 4.5 / 5 stars January 26, 2008
Wow, great flash! The story is very interesting and original. I am glad that the 'CandyHolics' did complete their objective, even though they beat up that kid in the ghost costume ^^.
The menu was very good. It's always nice to have a scene selection, this way it's easier to watch the favorite parts again. I also liked that you had your own mouse pointer. Most flash artist don't make use of that possibility; you did. It's not a big deal, but even the smallest things can help to let your movie stand out from the rest of the portal.
The graphics are amazing, you put a lot of details in the characters and also in the backgrounds. I also liked that you used many well known characters in your flash. Cameos are always a nice thing ^^.
Sadly, the quality of the sound wasn't that great. Sometimes the voices were hard to understand. At least you had subtitles so that one can still follow the story without problems.

I really appreciate the review. And to comment on my custom cursor even though I created one, it just wasn't visual pleasing which was a downside to it.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars January 28, 2008

The main hope is that Upton can turn on that extra gear, and become a perennial 30-40 HR, 120+ RBI, 30+ steal MVP, Gold Glove caliber guy.
Because he is truly talented, but needs a little push I guess.
To add to what you're saying, in Arizona, they are expecting him to be "the man" well here in Cincinnati Votto is the man, and the 2nd "Man" Bruce so all J Upton has to do is slide in that 4 hole and then the Reds have the Offensive Protection for Votto at #3 and this team turns the corner on Production.... IF, and I mean a HUGE IF they get a legit lead-off hitter...
I think they just need to swallow the Red Pill and Sign Bourn... Chances are Hamilton won't be ready until 2014 and won't be an IMPACT bat until 2015/2016 so Bourn allows you to bring Hamilton along and Bat him 2nd when he first comes up, then my friends you have Votto-Upton-Bruce behind Bourn and Hamilton... Plus, by replacing Stubbs with Bourn you don't lose anything Defensively...
The Reds need to go ALL IN this year... Period.

editorial cartoons
Comics A.M. | Muslim leader regrets condemning Muhammad cartoons
Editorial cartoons | Ahmad Akkari, one of the leaders of the protests in 2006 against the cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad published by the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten, now says he regrets his activities and has even apologized in person to one of the cartoonists, Kurt Westergaard. "I want to be clear today about the trip: It was totally wrong," Akkari said in an interview with The Associated Press. "At that time, I was so fascinated with this logical force in the Islamic mindset that I could not see the greater picture. I was convinced it was a fight for my faith, Islam." [The Guardian]
Passings | The body of Ramen Fighter Miki creator Jun Sadogawa (real name Mutsumi Kawato) was discovered early Tuesday hanging from a tree in a park in Ibaraki Prefecture's Kitasōma District. According to police, evidence at the scene suggested suicide. The 34-year-old manga creator had been serializing Amane Atatameru in Weekly Shonen Champion magazine at the time of his death. [Anime News Network]
Comics A.M. | Singapore cartoonist apologizes, charges dropped
Legal | Singapore cartoonist Leslie Chew apologized today for four comic strips that were formerly posted on his Facebook page Demon-Cratic Singapore. In a statement released by his lawyers, Chew said, "I accept that (the) comic strips had misrepresented to the public that the Singapore Judiciary administers differential treatment to individuals based on their nationality, social status and political affiliation, and that there have been specific criminal cases in which decisions were made by the Singapore judiciary on the basis of the above factors rather than on the merits." In light of the apology, and the fact that the strips have been taken down, the Attorney-Generals Chambers has dropped contempt of court charges against Chew. The cartoonist was also charged with sedition in April, but those charges have been dropped as well. [Straits Times]
Comics A.M. | Boston Comic Con a boon to local retailers
Conventions | Retailers in the Boston area talk about the importance of Boston Comic Con to their bottom line. This year's event will be held Saturday and Sunday. [The Boston Globe]

Creators | Nate Powell, who got his start distributing photocopied minicomics at punk-rock shows, talks to his hometown newspaper about working with Rep. John Lewis on March, drawing a Percy Jackson graphic novel, and life as a full-time comic artist: "There's a whole lot of constant hustling as a cartoon artist, and really I credit DIY punk as far as shaping the way that I navigate the world to allow me to still tap into the constant hustling necessary to keep my head above water." [Arkansas Times]
Comics A.M. | Boston Comic Con expected to draw 15,000
Conventions | Boston Comic Con is coming this weekend, and founder Nick Kanieff talks about how it has grown from 900 attendees at the first con, in 2007, to an expected 15,000 for this year's event, which was rescheduled because of the Boston Marathon bombings. [MetroWest Daily News]

Creators | Peter Steiner's cartoon, captioned "On the internet, nobody knows you're a dog," is the most-reproduced cartoon in the history of The New Yorker. On the 20th anniversary of its publication, Steiner looks back on its creation, which came about almost by chance, and the ways the world has changed in the interim. One interesting nugget: The most-reproduced cartoon in The New Yorker has brought its creator a total of $50,000 in royalties over the past 20 years. [Comic Riffs]
Comics A.M. | Bors on working for free; 'king of creator-owned comics'?
Creators | Editorial cartoonist Matt Bors talks about his life in a tough field, comics journalism and people who want him to work for free: "No one would hold a 'contest' for chefs to all prepare food and then only offer pay to the 'winner' whose meal they like best … If you want to draw your friend's wedding invitation for free, I say go for it. If someone is making money from your work, they can afford to pay you." [Truthout]
Creators | Brian K. Vaughan is crowned "king of the creator-owned comics" by Alex Hern, who acknowledges that may be an "artificially constrained" compliment before laying out the writer's claim to the title. [New Statesman]
Comics A.M. | Digital comics' 'era of experimentation'
Digital comics | Jason Snell uses Comic-Con International as an opportunity to take a snapshot of digital comics in "an era of experimentation," and hones in on Madefire, the convention's embrace of technology, comiXology and the growing popularity of the digital-first model. "Digital has made us rethink how we fulfill books into the [print] retail market," Chris Ross, Top Shelf's director of digital publishing, said during a panel. [TechHive]
Legal | The Attorney-Generals Chambers of Singapore has charged cartoonist Leslie Chew (the pen name of Chew Peng Ee) with contempt of court because of four cartoons posted on his Facebook page Demon-cratic Singapore. A hearing on the charges, which could result in jail time and fines, will be held on Aug. 12. Chew's attorney M. Ravi said in a phone interview, "Our judiciary is not like fragile flowers to be offended easily by such criticism. We have full faith in the impartiality and independence of our judiciary." [Bloomberg News]
Comics A.M. | Retailers high on Image, 'Saga' & creator-owned
Retailing | Publishers Weekly's annual comics retailer survey yields some interesting commentary, although the sample size is small (just 10 stores): Sales are up, retailers are optimistic, and Saga is the hot book right now. Also, booksellers who underestimated the demand for Chris Ware's Building Stories lost out to direct-market retailers who didn't, making for some nice extra sales during the holiday season. And while readers seem to be getting tired of the Big Two and their event comics, they are more enthusiastic than ever before about creator-owned comics, and Image is doing quite well.

While the details aren't entirely clear, it sounds like Digital is working on some new licenses and will have digital rights to books released here in print by other publishers. [Anime News Network]
Comics A.M. | 'Airwolf,' 'Saved by the Bell' revived as digital comics
Publishing | Lions Forge Comics announced a partnership this morning with NBC Universal to create digital comics based on five television series from the 1980s and 1990s: Knight Rider, Airwolf, Miami Vice, Punky Brewster and Saved by the Bell. The comics will be released on a variety of e-book platforms, including Kindle, Nook and Kobo, but there was no mention of comics apps such as comiXology. [USA Today]
Publishing | Denis Kitchen's Kitchen Sink, long a packager whose comics were published by others, will now be an imprint of Dark Horse, releasing four to six books a year.

Comics A.M. | Jeff Robinov to exit Warner Bros. amid shakeup
Business | Following weeks (if not months) of rumblings, Warner Bros. has made it official: Jeff Robinov, the Warner Bros. Pictures Group president who oversaw the 2009 restructuring of DC Comics into DC Entertainment, will leave the studio following a reorganization that establishes a new leadership team: Sue Kroll, president of worldwide marketing and distribution, Greg Silverman, president of creative development and worldwide production, and Toby Emmerich, president and chief operating officer of New Line Cinema. It doesn't appear as if Robinov will be replaced. DC Entertainment President Diane Nelson, who initially reported Robinov, presumably will answer directly to Warner Bros. CEO Kevin Tsujihara; following a shakeup last month in the television and home entertainment division, Nelson reported to both Robinov and Tsujihara. [The Hollywood Reporter]
Comics A.M. | IDW's CEO talks digital strategy, book market
Publishing | ICv2 posts a three-part interview with IDW Publishing CEO Ted Adams that covers a multitude of subjects, including the company's digital strategy, the Artists Editions, news that Scholastic has picked up its My Little Pony comics, and that the publisher's book sales are up, even though Borders is gone: "The book market used to make me crazy on this returnable basis basically forever. That was never a sustainable business model. Where we are today is we are able to sell product in a reasonable way so that the bookstores get a chance to sell the product and we don't get these giant returns. " [ICv2]
Piracy | Earlier this year, the Chinese Internet company Tencent inked a deal with Shueisha, the publisher of Shonen Jump and thus the licensor of some of the most popular manga in the world. One consequence of this deal has just hit home with the Chinese reading public: Scanlations are disappearing from the web, and fans are not happy. [Kotaku]
Comics A.M. | Syrian cartoonist faces trial; Trudeau taking sabbatical
Editorial cartoons | The Cartoonists Rights International has given its 2013 Courage in Editorial Cartooning award to Syrian cartoonist Akram Raslan, who was arrested in his newspaper office in Hama, Syria, about six months ago and has been held incommunicado since then; reliable sources report that he has been tortured while in prison. Raslan will be tried on Monday in a special court on an array of charges, including insulting the president and incitement to sedition, stemming from his cartoons.

Creators | Meanwhile, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette cartoonist Rob Rogers is donating the prize money from the Thomas Nast Award he recently received to the CRNI. Rogers' donation will go directly to a cartoonist who's in hiding for fear of being deported to his home country of Syria. [Cartoonist Rights Network International]
Comics A.M. | 'One Piece' takes two-week hiatus due to illness
Manga | Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump has announced that One Piece will go on hiatus for the magazine's next two issues because creator Eiichiro Oda has been hospitalized for a peritonsillar abscess, a complication of tonsillitis. The popular series is expected to return June 10. One Piece, which has been serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump since 1997, has sold more than 280 million volumes in Japan alone. [Anime News Network]

Comics A.M. | Why aren't there more Canadian superheroes?
Superheroes | Writer Jim Zubkavich tackles the burning question of why there are so few Canadian superheroes: "We don't have a long standing superhero tradition in this country. We don't have a long-standing focal point character people recognize (I like Captain Canuck, but the average person on the street does not know who he is). We're not a country galvanized by heavy-duty patriotic pride that lends itself to a Superman, Captain America or even a Batman. We don't have the kind of rampant crime that 'needs' a heroic symbol to fight back against." [Zub Tales]
Digital comics | The first issue of Mark Millar's Jupiter's Legacy sold more than 100,000 copies in stores, but was that because he refused to allow it to be sold in digital format the same day? Steve Bennett is doubtful, because so many people (including himself) didn't realize until the last minute it would be print-only for now. [ICv2]
Comics A.M. | Weak April for graphic novels in bookstores
Graphic novels | April was a slow month for new graphic novel releases, so the BookScan Top 20 had plenty of room for some backlist titles. The Walking Dead dominated, of course, but the 10th volume of Sailor Moon was there for a second month and actually moved up a notch. And the first volume of Saga came in at No. 12, perhaps because people were curious as to what all the fuss is about. [ICv2]

It is difficult, as you've found, to combine the roles of father and SM. As fathers, we expect more from our own sons (good genes, naturally) than we do from others' sons. As a rule, we're not as patient. We fall into different teaching modes. The father-son interaction can interfere with the SM-scout interaction.
And, its not just one-way. To the other scouts, you're 10 feet tall. Able to leap tall buildings with a single bound. To your son, you're just Dad. (Paraphrasing what was said recently about Den Chiefs and Cubs: a Den Chief is superman, but the Den Leader is just someone's mom.)
Difficult though it may be (and, I've been there), I'd back off. Involve your son's PL and your ASMs more with your son's progress. Refuse to answer to "Dad" at scouting events. Answer questions, but don't give gratuitous advice. Involve Mom regarding getting him packing for outings. Let the PL invite him on outings, and give him his assignments. Make his coldness his patrol's problem, not yours.
Be assured that this problem is more difficult for your son than it is for you.
As for Scout Spirit, I understand the requirement to be "Do Your Best." Not all of our scouts have angelic qualities depicted by Rockwell. Your son's Best might not be what you think it is. Involve your ASMs in this decision.
