SAN FRANCISCO — In California, Proposition 65 requires all commercial buildings containing chemicals recognized by the state to cause cancer and birth defects to display signs warning anyone about to enter that "this area contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm."
So wouldn't it be stupid to build a hospital out of materials that harbor those chemicals? Wouldn't it be even more stupid to build a hospital exclusively focused on treating cancer, birth defects and reproductive damage that harbors those chemicals? Most would agree it would be — yet it's how hospitals are built every day.
When the design team at Anshen + Allen, a healthcare design firm in San Francisco, began work in 2007 on the University of California new hospital in the city's Mission Bay neighborhood — a cancer hospital that will also treat childhood birth defects and adult reproductive problems when it opens in late 2014 — it realized how counterproductive it would be to design a facility for those types of patients that would necessitate the Prop. 65 sign in the first place. So the company, in conjunction with teams at McDonough Braungart Design Chemistry, and McDonough & Partners, MBDC's design architecture arm, embarked on a mission to design the state's first 100 percent toxin-free hospital by screening every building material that could possibly go in to the structure for its potential to cause those conditions.

"The realization that toxins within the building, especially carcinogens, would be an issue definitely hit home with the team, especially because [the hospital] is treating cancer," says Tyler Krehlik, senior associate at Anshen and leader of the firm's design team working on the hospital.
Although UCSF told Anshen that it wanted to integrate sustainability into its new hospital, it left the execution up to the team, says Krehlik. "One of the university's stated missions is to improve health worldwide, and they had an opportunity with this building to deal with health issues. That is where the interest came from; it started as a big idea."
While there is ample research and consensus on which chemicals are carcinogenic, there is little and conflicting research on which chemicals can be classified as Teratogens, which cause birth defects, and mutagens, which cause defects in embryonic DNA, says Krehlik.
With 10,000 materials that can go in to a hospital and the need to review the research on each understudied chemical to make a balanced decision as well as to compare multiple materials to determine the ones with the lowest toxicity, the Anshen and McDonough teams realized the screening process would take longer and cost more than the project's timeframe or budget allowed. So they developed a set of criteria to determine which chemicals to screen. The criteria targeted chemicals: 1. listed on the California Proposition 65 list, 2. classified as known carcinogens, 3. classified as known Teratogens, 4. listed on the US Environmental Protection Agency's list of "Chemicals of Concern," 5. known to damage the adult reproductive system.
The teams also developed three filters — contact, repetition and spillover — to lower the number of building materials to research. In terms of contact, the teams needed to determine whether a person would be likely to touch, smell, lick, or chew on the material and in turn absorb potentially toxic chemicals through their mucous membranes — an important consideration in a children's hospital. In terms of repetition, they considered the fact that inpatient and exam rooms are traditionally repeated in hospitals, so they "looked for repetition and the economy of scale that comes with it," says Krehlik. Lastly, spillover considered the fact that materials used in inpatient and exam rooms are usually also used in the surrounding hallways, nurse's stations, and other areas.
Ultimately, the criteria reduced the number of materials in the screen from 10,000 to a manageable 130.
Under EPA guidelines, manufacturers are not obligated to disclose ingredients in the product formulas that can be considered proprietary, so the teams resorted to Material Safety Data Sheets and other public information to ferret out the ingredients missing from the MSDS. They then created a scoring system to rank comparable materials. The system "deducted points for every known toxin in a product, weighted by an estimate of the percentage of the material's content that was toxic and the severity of the toxin," Krehlik says.
The teams were astonished to discover that the toxic chemicals tend to be in the additives rather than in what they were added to. Antimicrobials and stain-resistant finishes applied to carpets were toxic while the carpets themselves were not, for instance. "It changed the way we think about product selections," says Krehlik. "[Now] we pick products or surfaces that don't have or don't need the additives, like linoleum."
Yet, after all their effort, the Anshen and McDonough teams found that it is impossible to design a toxin-free building in the current market. Some materials, such as epoxy paints, do not have any high-scoring options, so Anshen was forced to choose the best available option, even if it had scored low. "That was a bit of a blow to us but we can at least try to do what we can," says Krehlik.
But the trend toward thinking about the long-term impacts of buildings on human health seems to be on the upswing. The U.S. Green Building Council announced in early November its new Chemical Avoidance in Building Materials pilot credit, an acknowledgment of the health dangers certain chemicals pose to building inhabitants. The pilot credit currently focuses on phthalates [added to plastics to increase its flexibility, transparency, durability, and longevity] and flame retardants — rewarding project teams for avoiding materials composed of them — and will likely expand the list of chemicals as the council reviews the results of the pilot.
"I really think our work on the rating system for health care was originally for [the Chemical Avoidance in Building Materials pilot credit]," says Whit Falconer, director of LEED Technical Development at the USGBC. "Any time you are talking about building a green building the issue of green products comes up but the health care [committee] pushed this idea for a while. They had a lot of specific issues with regard to pathways to exposure for people with compromised immune systems that made it especially unique and important and pilot credit seemed like a reasonable place to talk about them."
Bill Walsh, executive director of the Healthy Building Network, wrote in the organization's recent newsletter that "this credit, along with an earlier credit for PBT Source Reduction: Dioxins and Halogenated Organic Compounds, marks the beginning of a three-step approach the USGBC is developing to address 'chemicals of concern' in building materials."
But Walsh warned that the pilot credit could produce backlash. "LEED project teams will pay a critical role in the success of this process, which is likely to be aggressively resisted by the chemicals and plastics industries, and some product manufacturers," he wrote.
Krehlik has the battle scars to prove it. During the UCSF materials screen he says he had "a bunch of [telephone] hang-ups, amazingly a lot" from manufacturers hostile to Anshen and McDonough's project. "They start to worry about liability concerns and they don't want to talk," he says.
Falconer agrees, revealing that the USGBC has so far received the most pushback on the pilot credit from chemicals manufacturers. But he believes even they might be starting to see the light on producing non-toxic building materials.
"They are reserving judgment and giving us a little elbow room," he says. "They're seeing that this may not be end of the world and that it may be a transformative step."
"In general, a lot of people seem to trust the council that the path we are choosing will be the path that facilitates the market," Falconer added.
Meanwhile, Anshen is advancing the industry's efforts to design healthier buildings by integrating the knowledge it gained from its UCSF screen in to its other projects. "It was a big 'aha' for us," he says of the discovery that additives can be the major culprits. "We've rolled that into our design syncing — we've taken the data collected and it has allowed us to make better product selections on other projects."
Will UCSF's new Mission Bay hospital be the most non-toxic commercial building in California once it opens its doors to the public? "We hope so," says Krehlik. "That is definitely our goal, but whether we'll make it or not is an unknown."
It's safe to say it very likely will be.

Long Term Ecological Research Cruise
Science Cruise. LTER is a scientific partnership that brings together scientists in a number of different disciplines together to understand the peninsula region of Antarctica. Most of the work is open ocean - the ships stops at about 100 predetermined ocean locations to study the water chemistry and biology of the ocean column and bottom. Another part of the work involved dropping seabird researchers on islands (including previously unstudied islands) to survey and study the populations of animals.
The work aboard ship was extremely demanding. Researchers and assistants worked around the clock in 12 hour shifts for 32 days. The reward was a fantastically productive study session with several firsts: cooperation between the ship and the British station Rothera in deploying underwater gliders, confirmation of Adelie populations in a predicted (but previously uncontacted) spot.
You can see more pictures of their cruise in the photo gallery.
We were happy to have the battle-weary but still energetic crew stop at Palmer at the end of their cruise. They will be leaving several researchers with us to continue their work here and taking others home.

Hi there!
I would like to burn a theme at this forum. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of financial piramyde, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.
For several years , I earn money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I get now up to 2G a day , and my first investment was 500 dollars only.
Right now, I managed to catch a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Visit my blog to get additional info.

Good luck, Mr Mayor. As we know, Dimocrats stay in office until they get carried out in a zip-up rubber bag [Robert Byrd, Ted Kennedy, etc].
As a black politician, why get stuck in New Jersey politics when one can get elected to the US Senate and then end up as President in a few years?It´s pretty clear now that the Democrats must always run and nominate a minority candidate in the future to win national elections, or the big black vote that they need to win might just stay home. More bad news for the likes of Hillary Clinton.
Booker will run and win. When Christie`s time is up a dem will take back the governorship and NJ will revert to the liberal hellhole it was pre-Christie.Some things in life are just inevitable.
The NE voters prove you just can´t fix stupid.
Booker is well educated, and a former athlete, both of which president zero is not.
Cory Booker would be a big step up on Frank Lautenberg. And he probably doesn´t need afternoon naps.
Booker once spoke the truth about BO then was cowed, threatened, or chicagoed back to the plantation followed by his groveling at the feet of BO. His opposition should pound him on that.
Lautenberg is to NJ as Byrd was to WV. Highway funds galore. King of pork. If he wants to run again he´ll beat anyone. He´s already greased too many palms. Booker should challenge Christie in the Democrat primary for Governor.
I probably dont agree with him on much, but This guy is very, very impressive. It´ a shame he wants to waste his talents in the Senate. Christie needs to be defeated.

Lost an engine last week and am stuck figureing it out.
I have no spark.
points are ok,rotor ok,all wire leads ok.
I suspect coil but dont want to lock on to a diagnosis without covering all possibilities.
I do want to check the coil,but other than holding the high tension wire(dist.cap end) close to a ground ,I am not sure how to do that.
I have a good volt/ohm meter.
Can someone give me the step by step for testing coils,and other suggestions for troubleshooting?

MIAMI — Design Miami 2009, a relatively small but jampacked fair this year, is open for business. The exhibiting galleries' booths seemed tightly focused, with less emphasis on the wow factor and more on concept. Swarovski's, for instance, was downright abstract. In place of its usual designer chandeliers, Gregg Lynn created three sail-like forms — made of the lightweight but strong carbon-fiber and Mylar sandwich that is used to make actual sails — and added thousands of tiny Swarovski crystals that gave the forms a subtle glimmer. At Gallery Libby Sellers, Julia Lohmann and Gero Grundmann took animal bones found along the banks of the Thames River in London and, with interventions like silver inserts to hold candles or flowers, turned them into precious objects.

MHS Faces Belt-Tightening in Obama Administration's FY 2013 Budget
- Categorized in: Department of Defense (DoD), March 2012, News
By Sandra Basu
WASHINGTON — If the Obama Administration has its way, the Military Health System (MHS) will tighten its belt — and its wallet — next fiscal year.
Under President Barack Obama's proposed FY 2013 budget, the DoD Unified Medical Budget that supports the MHS would receive $48.7 billion, down from the $52.8 billion this year.
According to the administration, priorities in the proposed MHS budget include "enhancing the well-being and psychological health of military families, ensuring excellence in military children's education, developing career and educational opportunities for military spouses, and ensuring child-care availability and quality for the armed forces."
The smaller MHS budget is part of an overall proposed DoD budget that would provide $525.4 billion in discretionary funding for the base DoD budget, a decrease of $5.1 billion from the 2012 enacted level. DoD Overseas Contingency Operations funding will fall by 23%.
"This budget continues efforts to reduce excess overhead, eliminate waste and improve business practices across the department," Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta said at a recent Senate Armed Services hearing on the proposed FY 2013 budget.

Importance of Maintaining Direct-Care System During Peacetime
Even in the midst of military personnel reductions and proposed budget cuts, military medical officials said it is important to maintain the DoD's direct-care system.
Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs Jonathan Woodson, MD, said at the 2012 MHS Conference that, in order to ensure readiness of the medical forces, it will be important to maintain a "vibrant direct-care system during peacetime."
"We must make the military hospitals and clinics the preferred choice of our patients. Today, approximately 4.5 million of our beneficiaries out of approximately 7.7 million beneficiaries eligible for TRICARE Prime choose us as their preferred choice of healthcare needs," he said. "How do we increase the number of beneficiaries that choose us as the system of preferred care in a managed-care model? By investing our resources in a way that supports that objective. Woodson said MHS will invest in four major initiatives: the continuation of the patient-centered medical home; a multi-year effort to reduce the levels of tobacco use and obesity; a new comprehensive patient safety model; and overall innovation"

MHS Prepares for Change
The proposed reduction in the healthcare budget came as little surprise. In the weeks prior to the budget release, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs Jonathan Woodson, MD, told an audience at the 2012 MHS Conference that it would be "a smaller, leaner military which leverages technology to be more agile and flexible" and that "these same attributes will be true for military medicine."
Woodson also said the reduction in the defense budget "will shine an even brighter light on military health costs, which could now exceed 10% of the base Department of Defense budget, if reforms are not made." Still, he said the MHS has an opportunity to "shape" its future and that military medical personnel should not allow themselves to be "distracted or confused by the fiscal challenges."
"Instead, we should seize upon the opportunity to become stronger and better and more relevant," he said.
Increased TRICARE Fees
Specifics of the president's proposed budget plan included proposals recommending increases in healthcare fees, co-pays and deductibles to be phased in over four to five years. The fees would not increase for active-duty troops, survivors of troops who died on active duty or medically retired troops, according to DoD officials.
Panetta told the Senate Armed Services Committee last month there was "no holy ground " when it came to having to make decisions about budget cuts.
The proposed changes include:
- Further increasing enrollment fees for retirees under age 65 in the TRICARE Prime program, using a tiered approach based on retired pay that requires senior-grade retirees with higher retired pay to pay more and junior-grade retirees less;
- Establishing a new enrollment fee for the TRICARE Standard/Extra programs and increasing deductibles;
- Establishing a new enrollment fee for the TRICARE-for-Life program for retirees 65 and older, also using a tiered approach;
- Implementing additional increases in pharmacy co-pays in a manner that increases incentives for use of mail order and generic medicine;
- Indexing fees, deductibles, pharmacy co-pays, and catastrophic caps to reflect the growth in national healthcare costs.

Ummm , isn't this easy to do with a 3d lut , folks?
I mean, come on. From the previous version it's a slight S curve, and basically some saturation in some of the reds.
A 24x24x24 should be plenty to capture all the nuances of the 'color science' of redgamma 3.
3d Luts are a cinch to make in Nuke.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding peoples needs. Any serious color correction software package supports 3d luts on media import.

Is it too early to start thinking of books we'd like to listen to next year?
I don't think so. Here are some on my list:
I know it is more fashionable in the romance genre right now to be reading about billionaires in dire need of therapy, but my personal favorites have always been the historicals. Recently, I've discovered two series in particular that have really kept my Kindle clicking.
Elizabeth Hoyt's Maiden Lane Series
An older lawyer is driving home after meeting with a client. He is scared and worried. Suddenly in the middle of the road ahead he sees a chair with a human figure sitting in it. He stops the car and gets out to investigate. An assailant hits him from behind and he is instantly dead. At the same time, Detective Chief Inspector Kurt Wallander has been on sick leave for more than a year and he is thinking of resigning. The lawyer's son, a friend, comes to see him, thinking that his father's death can't be an accident. Two weeks later, the son is shot. This upsets Wallander and he decides to go back to work and solve the murder. The dark and moody Kurt Wallander novels present a chance to see the country of Sweden through a native's eyes.
Please join us to discuss Madame Bovary, by Gustave Flaubert. Wednesday January 8, at 11a.m .
A customer recently recommended a book that gives you a different view of learning history: A History of the World in 100 Objects by Neil MacGregor. I've added it to my to-read list.
Winter days make me think of epic space operas set in the unforgiving cold of space, and one series in particular stands out. The Expanse series by James S A Corey (really two authors,Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck) is a fantastic mix of sci fi, noir mystery and action.
Join us for a warm and cozy discussion of Gingerbread Cookie Murder, a collection of three mystery novellas by Joanne Fluke, Laura Levine, and Leslie Meier. We'll meet at Baldwin Boettcher Branch on Monday, January 6, at 6:30 pm to talk about these stories and the recipes included in each. Copies are available at the library.
One reviewer wrote that Angels Flight was not Connelly's best, but I still found it interesting. In Angel's Flight, Howard Elias, an African American lawyer fond of suing the LAPD, is found murdered on the Angel's Flight train. This is set shortly after the Rodney King riots and Harry has to deal with department politics and racial tension as he seeks to solve the crime. He's also trying to give up smoking and his wife has been out gambling again. Bosch breaks all the rules to find the killer as always. I enjoy the hard boiled detective stories that Connelly writes.
Title to be discussed: The Light Between Oceans, by M. L. Stedman. Date of meeting: Tuesday, Jan. 14, 6:30pm. Summary: " A novel set on a remote Australian island, where a childless couple live quietly running a lighthouse, until a boat carrying a baby washes ashore."
I'm sure you're all in full holiday mode just as I am. When I'm not baking cookies or shopping for presents, I'm trying to relax. What better way to do that then with a good holiday horror? For your horrific holiday needs, I present a collection of holiday horrors sure to scare even Santa away!

Review: Understanding Chaos Magic, by Jaq D. Hawkins
By Psyche
Understanding Chaos Magic, by Jaq D. Hawkins
Capall Bann Publishing, 1898307938, 1996
This is an excellent introductory book on chaos magick. It clearly outlines the history, terminology and philosophies and commonalities found among chaotes.
It explains and dispels many assumptions often made about chaos magick which I found interesting, such as how it is sometimes perceived as being of the 'left hand path'.
If you're new to chaos magick, or curious to know more, this is a useful book to pick up. If you're more experienced, it likely won't have anything new to offer, but may be worth the read to authoritatively recommend it to people who ask you 'What is chaos magick?'

MAYFIELD, Ky. — Bethany Atkins overcame obstacles in her first year at Mayfield High School.
As a freshman, Atkins played basketball until a knee injury made it too painful to play any longer.
"I wasn't going to play another sport and try to heal up, but I'm really competitive so I had to do something," Atkins said.
Atkins switched to volleyball and laughs now about how difficult it was to work out her basketball tendencies.
"It was a little bit of a challenge because I kept wanting to do all kinds of basketball stuff with it," Atkins said. "It always looked like I was doing a layup, and that's not how you're supposed to do it."
Atkins persevered and became a co-captain her sophomore year. Which typifies how the Mayfield senior rises to the occasion.
Last year the school journalism department put out its 100th anniversary edition of the yearbook. Who was up for taking on co-editor responsibilities? Atkins.
The 18-year-old works 14 hours a week at King's Flower Shop, has been 4-H Club president four years and holds a 3.7 grade-point average.
She qualified for the Governor's Scholar program and spent five weeks at Centre College in Danville last summer.
And that level of accomplishment helps make her Teen of the Week.
Atkins, daughter of Julie Maquel Atkins, is the Murray State University Teen of the Week. Each Monday, the Sun features a different MSU Teen of the Week selected from nominees submitted by high school guidance counselors throughout western Kentucky and southern Illinois. In May, a Teen of the Year will be chosen from the weekly winners, earning a $5,000 scholarship to Murray State. Teen of the Week is part of the Sun's Newspapers in Education program.
What impresses Atkins' teachers is not just the length of her list of achievements, but how she carries herself.
"Bethany is most definitely the friendliest leader I have had the privilege to teach," said Kara Dowdy, English teacher.
"Her leadership abilities abound daily in no matter what setting she is placed."
She also succeeds no matter what language is in use. Atkins received awards for excellence in English and French classes at Mayfield.
"It's interesting to receive the French award and English award. It was kind of weird," Atkins joked. "But I was very honored, and it was for being a leader in the class."
Atkins has honed her leadership skills in Future Business Leaders of America and through volunteering at the Mayfield-Graves County Animal Shelter.
That Atkins is that kind of leader given challenges in her own life impresses Lynn Henderson, school counselor.
Henderson said Atkins' single-parent family has faced some obstacles, but Henderson remains unflappable.
"She has faced adversity and through it all has found her place and is loved and respected by all of her teachers and peers," Henderson said.
Atkins leans toward attending the University of Kentucky in the fall to study psychology or social work.
Whatever comes her way, Atkins will have practice remaining poised in the face of challenges.

Extended Summary
Clark is a young man who makes his home at a boarding house in Boston. He receives a letter one day from his Uncle Howard in Nebraska; it informs him that his Aunt Georgiana will be arriving in the city to take care of some business matters. Uncle Howard asks Clark to pick her up at the station and to "render her whatever services might be necessary." Not surprisingly, his uncle has written at the last minute; his aunt will be arriving the next day. The situation reawakens long-forgotten memories for Clark. He remembers the figure of his aunt, "at once pathetic and grotesque," and in his mind he becomes again "the gangling farm boy [she] had known."
Aunt Georgiana has come all the way from Red Willow County on a day coach and is exhausted and disheveled when she arrives in Boston. Clark notices that her familiar, misshapen figure is so stooped now that her shoulders are almost bent together; she wears "ill-fitting false teeth" and her skin is yellow from constant exposure to the elements. This worn woman had once been a teacher at the Boston Conservatory, but on a visit to relatives in a Green Mountains town at the age of thirty, she caught the attention of "the most idle and shiftless of all the village lads," a "callow" youth nine years her junior by the name of Howard Carpenter. When she returned to Boston, Howard followed her. Ignoring the warnings of her family and friends, Georgiana eloped with her enamored suitor and left behind forever the comfortable environs of the big city. Howard had no money, so he took a homestead in Nebraska, and the couple arduously measured off their quarter section and settled there. Their lives were fraught with constant hardship and danger; their holding was fifty miles from the railroad in conditions that were utterly primitive. Georgiana has worked her fingers to the bone alongside her husband since then to eke out a living on the land. Until this trip to Boston, she has not left the prairie for thirty years.
Clark reflects that he owes to his aunt "most of the good that ever came [his] way in [his] boyhood." During the years he had lived with the family, he watched as this indefatigable woman executed with dogged determination the daunting tasks of running a farm household and raising six children. Clark remembers that in the evenings, when the heavy work was finally done, Aunt Georgiana would help him with his studies, coaching him in Latin and introducing...

Quality wood furniture is a significant investment expected to last for generations. To maintain its beauty and help it last, wood furniture needs the right care. Hooker Furniture products are finished with two to three coats of lacquer for extra depth and long-lasting durability. The sheen, or gloss, of the finish ranges from high to low, depending on the piece or collection. The finish protects the wood and adds to its beauty. No finish is totally indestructible, but with regular care, the finish will last much longer, providing years of enjoyment to you.
To protect and care for your furniture, we suggest the following:
- Avoid placing your furniture in direct sunlight, as sunlight causes fading
- Avoid extreme changes in temperature by arranging furniture away from radiators, heat and air vents and air conditioning units
- Avoid placing plastic or rubber materials (lamp bases, notebooks, placemats, etc.) on your furniture, as certain plastics contain ingredients that may damage the finish
- Periodically rotate accessories on furniture so they do not sit in the same spot all the time
- Use pads, cloth or felt to protect the furniture surface from plastic, rubber, hot dishes, beverages, bookends, flowerpots and vases
- Clean up spills immediately. Use a blotting rather than a wiping action. Water left over a long period of time will cause white spots in the finish. Alcohol, perfume, after-shave and medications can cause severe finish damage
- Use a protective pad when writing with a ballpoint pen on the furniture surface
- Lift and place objects rather than dragging them across the furniture surface
- Avoid placing furniture directly under windows
Cleaning and polishing your furniture
We recommend dusting frequently with a clean, soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Clean the surface by rubbing in the direction of the grain. We recommend polishing your furniture approximately every six months, using a clean, soft, lint-free cloth and rubbing the polish in the direction of the grain.
Question: What are the main types of furniture care products, and which one do you recommend?
Answer: There are three basic types of furniture care products: silicone cleaners, waxes and polishes. We recommend avoiding silicone cleaners and waxes. While silicone cleaners create a high degree of shine, silicone seeps into even the highest-quality finishes, creating a barrier that will not accept stain or lacquer. This makes it virtually impossible to re-finish or touch-up your furniture.
Waxes should be avoided because their regular use may result in a build-up of wax film on the surface of the furniture. This build-up could actually attract dirt, smoke and other pollutants in the air, resulting in smudges and streaks. Also, many waxes contain grit that can permanently damage furniture surfaces if used improperly.
Polishes, which we recommend, contain detergents, emulsifiers and mineral oil. The detergents clean dirt from the furniture, the emulsifiers give it body to clean and last longer and the mineral oil is left behind as a barrier for dirt and moisture than could harm finishes. There's no grit to harm the finish, no wax to build up and no silicone to raise the sheen and act as a barrier for touch-up and refinishing.

Alternate universes. There are a lot of them. The premise of this RP is that all the alternate universes between the two universes collide but unlike the amalgam universe this one entails a fight at the start. A new JLA, X-Men, Avengers and whatnot will have formed between the alternate universes. You could have a Rockabilly batman (My character) fighting alongside a cyberpunk superman in this universe. At the start of the RP neither universes will know each other and as a result will see each other as a threat, they will fight but it will ultimately end with a bigger foe posing a much larger threat for both parties. Steampunk Ironman inventing new gadgets with Rockabilly Batman? Chinese Captain America discussing communism with Red Son Green Lantern? Gentleman Lobo discussing etiquette with the Polite hulk? All of this could happen while we fight the big enemies minions and eventually him.
1. No one liners, you can have one every now and again but try to avoid them
2. Be realistic with the initial fight
3. Don't be overpowered, nerf your character if they can't die
4. My word is final
5. Have fun!

For The VW Golf is refined and comfortable, but also enjoyable to drive. Its cabin is well built and practical, and resale values are strong.
Against The entry-level engine doesn't have a lot of power and the 1.4 petrol with cylinder shut-off is expensive. Lesser versions of the Golf have an unsophisticated rear suspension set-up.

Buyer's notes
Target Price team says:
The Golf is a superb all-rounder that offers everything most families will ever need. However, you still need to choose reasonably carefully.
Most versions are sensational to drive, blending an extremely comfortable ride with good body control. However, the cheaper versions (both 1.2 petrols and the 1.6 diesel) come with less sophisticated rear suspension, and they don't ride quite as serenely. They're still more comfortable than many rivals, though.
Of the trims, we reckon SE strikes the best balance between equipment and affordability. This brings alloy wheels, automatic lights and wipers, smarter interior trim, adaptive cruise control and a City Emergency Braking system.

I bought this for my boyfriend after he received a similar one in his birchbox. He loves these pocket squares! He uses them as a bandana of sorts and not a pocket square with a suit, but in either use, this is a classic piece....soft to the touch and very useful. He never leaves home without one
Eventhough my lifestyle does not really go with a pocket square I still loved this! It was so soft and the red colors was a great pop of color for the boring colors of my suits.

Feather River College's Brandon Mackenzie keeps his horse steady as Grant Denny leaps off to tackle a steer during the West Coast Region's last rodeo of the season. FRC took the region championship and will continue on to the national championship this June. Photo by Jack Upton |
The Feather River College rodeo team won the West Coast Region on April 27 at the final rodeo of its regular season in Las Vegas.
The team's hard work paid off this season with eight members set to go to the national competition June 9 in Casper, Wyo.
The men's team finished first with an accumulated total of 7,084.5 points for the season. The University of Nevada at Las Vegas came in second. more than 500 points behind FRC. Feather River's women's team finishing fourth in the region.
In addition to its big win, seven members of the men's team and one from the women's team qualified to advance to the national championship. To advance, the team members had to place in the top three for the season in any given event.
Chant DeForest placed third in the All Around category. DeForest also took first in Tie Down Roping. DeForest was the only FRC member to take the gold in any category. The number of second and third places was high, however.
Lucas White took second in Saddle Bronc Riding while Dylan Vick-Hice took second in Bull Riding. Grant Denny placed second in Bareback Riding with Blaine Davies close behind for third.
Josh Garner placed second in Steer Wrestling and Brandon Mackenzie took third in Tie Down Roping.
Hanna Hundsdorfer placed second in Breakaway Roping; the only placement for the women's team.
"We have a team that's really strong," said Feather River's head rodeo coach Jesse Segura. "Our guys are really going to show the other teams a thing or two at nationals."
After winning the West Coast Region, FRC is now ranked fourth in the nation. The possibility of winning the national college rodeo championship is very real.
"There'll be a lot of really good teams there," commented Segura. "We are in the mix, though. It's just one rodeo, so it'll ultimately depend on how we perform there."
In addition to winning the rodeo and the region, Segura was named as the coach of the year for the West Coast Region. All rodeo team members from the entire region voted and recognized the strength of the program that was built here in Plumas County.
