In September, we examined the impact of the classic "Kingdom Come" story on the DC Universe and the comic industry as a whole. This month we look back with Alex Ross upon the "Thy Kingdom Come" storyline that encompassed the third volume of "Justice Society of America" #1 - 23 along with several one-shots.
The return of Ross to "Kingdom Come" was plotted with Geoff Johns, DC's current writing ace, and mainly illustrated by Dale Eaglesham and Fernando Pasarin. Amongst his co-plots, cover art, and various interior pages, the event would see Ross accomplish his first solo written and illustrated book in "Kingdom Come Special: Superman."
POP!: How long was the Justice Society of America/Kingdom Come storyline supposed to run?
Alex Ross: It changed a lot. The original plan when I first came on the "JSA" book ages ago (in 2005) would have been to introduce Superman relatively soon and then have his storyline last, I don't know, maybe six, seven, maybe eight issues. Basically, it was the build-up before issue #100, and the culmination was going to be issue #100 of the "JSA." Because of "Infinite Crisis" and all the rebooting to the entire DCU, [DC Comics'] redoing of "Justice League of America" as a new #1 put the pressure on that we would be doing a new #1 of "Justice Society," which at the time seemed like, "God, how can you be this close to #100 and then not go for it?" But we were basically told, "You know what? Nobody cares about the numbers except for those first issue sales, and that will be a bump, and you'll get more people paying attention to what you're doing if you do the reboot." Which I guess was true in terms of what numbers were, but it was something I didn't necessarily - I mean, it's not what I would have done, but it's what I went along with.
The story started up in "JSA" when Geoff [Johns] was first building up his own stuff that he had planned for a little while - his storylines related to the "Legion of Superheroes" crossover thing. That thing first starting off was something I had next to nothing to do with. I had a lot more input over the development of the character and background of the new Citizen Steel. That was something I gave the basic bare bones of. Instead of having this guy be another case of a broken body repaired with science to be a bionic man, I thought, "Have it be almost like a metallic disease, and he catches it in battle as a mistake. It's a freak accident that he should wind up like his brother and father." I also tried arguing with Geoff that it should not be a lineage of being another son, or passed on through this father-son kind of dynamic, but he was so hooked into that idea, I couldn't talk him out of it. So I thought, "Have it be someone who's a cousin or a little bit more removed instead of exactly another Heywood." But the whole thing about him being a character who couldn't feel, that was a lot of the stuff that I was trying to throw at Geoff, and he worked well with me on it. We seemed to be all on the same page with the way to develop the physicality of that character, that they had to pretty much just heat the suit up around him - it's poured metal - to create this super-suit that, to get it off, he has to pretty much rip it off.
Well, I was trying to ask about was that the only major public criticism was with the amount of issues it took to tell this story.
Well, the thing that really did it in, I feel, is there was a hell of a lot more time taken with this part of the storyline that I had nothing to do with, which is the dispatching of the original Gog that was created by Mark Waid - which really wasn't even reflecting what he had done with it originally. It just became this weird distortion, because everybody ignored what [Waid] had done with it in the "Kingdom" miniseries. He was used by Chuck Austen in "Action Comics" as just this Superman killer who showed none of the scars of what had happened at the end of the "Kingdom" series. And I'm following all this stuff, thinking, "Is anybody minding the store over there?" Somebody should have noted that the guy looked completely different. In fact, it seemed clear that Mark intended that Gog would become Magog. I didn't get that as a concept because, metaphorically, it was supposed to be two different characters representing these two cities of the Book of Revelation. It's also two giants in mythology, so it should be two separate characters in my way of thinking, but obviously he was going for a different thing.
So, he had that character injured, where he looked like he had the entire left arm of his body all screwed up. Basically, he would get the transformation, ultimately get the gold arm - the Cable arm of the character, as it were - to look like the character in "Kingdom Come," so that he would eventually wind up being that guy. Although, how would he wind up being that guy if he spends his first days being this Superman killer? Magog in "Kingdom Come" is not some mass murderer. He's representative of the modern superhero, the Punisher-era, Cable, gun-toting superhero who shoots first and asks questions later, the guy who will just put the Joker down. He's not somebody that should have had this blood feud with Superman where his whole goal in life is to destroy the legend of Superman. I didn't get that. I didn't connect with that, myself, at all, and so to me the whole thing was kind of lost.
So the Gog that's in the "Justice Society of America" books has the backstory you originally envisioned?
This is what I pitched to them back in 1996, when I pitched a series called "The Kingdom" that would follow up "Kingdom Come," because they didn't want to do just a Superman-specific project, which is what I recommended, initially. They wanted to do a Magog book. I thought, "Ugh. Magog is not the coolest character out of 'Kingdom Come.' Superman is." So I tried to divert them by making it a book that was part of continuity, but it was outside of all the main guys' books. It could evolve, sort of like "Trinity" involves Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, without having to be trapped by any of the writers of those three books. This would have been the same. It would have dipped in and out of the lives of all the DC heroes that we could want to play with, and it would bring about the legend of where Magog came from by first introducing Gog.
The whole idea that Gog was a giant who came from the pre-New Genesis/Apokolips planet was something that I had [come up with] back in '96. Ironically, within, I think, two months of when I first was putting this idea down on paper, not for many people to see, they had launched "Jack Kirby's Fourth World" that John Byrne was drawing. He pretty much offered up that the pre-New Gods gods were, metaphorically, the gods that Kirby left behind at Marvel, the third gods, because he had Thor, a red-bearded version of Thor, show up within the first issues of this "Fourth World" book. And I thought, "Ah, man, there's my idea blown." The only reason I wound up being able to go back to that idea some ten years later is because it didn't seem to become canon. Nobody was really saying, "This is the law. This is definitely what happened on that pre-New Genesis planet."
So this was one of the big attractions of the project for you? To establish Gog as this deity?
Yeah, and I can tell you, I have the absolute lamest motivations for all of my ideas in comics. In fact, I believe this is the third time - I can't remember all my ways of doing this - I think this is the third time I've done a tribute to the movie and musical "Tommy." And I'm sure you can't guess how. [Laughs] The idea that a sort of self-proclaimed messiah is walking around trying to save people by pulling them all together, having them follow him and he'll heal them all and whatever. This is kind of the set-up I had in "Justice," where the villains are setting themselves up as the healers of mankind, who will actually dole out real cures for all illnesses, help people escape from the trappings of modern society by bringing them to these cities in the sky. That was my pulling from "Tommy" the whole bit about Tommy's holiday camp. I kid you not. And so I did it then and there, and that was the same concept with Gog is that, when he shows up in Africa, he's helping people in the world who have the greatest need, and that was something to definitely fight for, to not have it happen in America again. I'm so sick of every Western superhero story taking place on the American continent. It's just seems like, "Really? You can't come up with any other place in the world that we ought to be?"
New York. [Laughs]
Yeah, everything's got to be in New York, huh? So, yeah, that's where this crazy idea came from. I've wanted to make my little minor contribution to what kind of creative hay you can make out of the pieces that Kirby left behind, but I'm sure I've made no great ripple throughout history, and somebody else will come up with another reason why there is something else to be added with the pre-New Genesis planet and whatever. But everything I was doing was kind of a tribute to the Promethean Giant from the "New Gods" run. That was just a two-page spread that was in there of a giant, which showed up on the cartoon show, "Superman," as well.
It was interesting to read how desperately these superheroes were looking for saviors to their problems.
Well, the one thing that I had to give up on was the idea that it would be a more complicating separation of details later, that the Gog character is here offering exactly what he promised, and that there's no catch to it. What Geoff fought for is that there has to be a catch, and the catch is that, if he's not declared as our God, and if he's not somehow savaging the planet by being here and offering what he's offering, if there's not some sort of thing where he's somehow hooking us, hooking the planet, in effect, then...
Geoff wanted him to be a salesman, it was all some sort of pitch.
Well, so did I. At heart, he's a drug pusher. If he can come around and say, "Hey, I'll fix everything for you guys," which is what you hope that superheroes could do, but if they do it, then we'd just get fat and lazy if we never do anything for ourselves. So it's playing with that idea. But within the course of the storyline, it has to go dark, and so we had a debate about that point, about when it has to really turn, and you get your big battle at the end. So it's bittersweet, because, in a way, you could appreciate that the character of Gog is, in a weird way, a petulant child, and when he's taken out, he's taken out because you have to get him off Earth so he can no longer do this to mankind and cause nobody else harm in the universe. But it also puts in Superman's heart a sense of failure at having to dispatch somebody who was really offering something. He understands the morality of it, but he has to feel like a dick, basically, getting rid of this guy. There's just this anger in him that's boiling up, and that's where it ultimately blows up by the time we return him to the world of "Kingdom Come."
By the end of the "JSA" storyline, we're left with the Magog that will be in "Kingdom Come."
Absolutely. It's meant to link up in a very organic way, that if you reread "Kingdom Come," you'll see the way the character is represented; he's not a character without a soul. He's a character that's part of the rough-housing quality of the modern superhero. He's also military. I always thought that part of his design would sort of [imply] he was military. I gave him a gun holster on his belt because I was imitating the look of Cable. I was mostly swiping Rob Liefeld's work, and Rob Liefeld knew that I was swiping his work when he saw the character. He actually realized the character was kind of a metaphor for all the things that Rob had designed in comics. [Laughs] But I was throwing these bits together. I didn't mean for the character to come off looking at all like a supervillain, because that's not what he is. He's not supposed to be the bad-ass villain that you go after, who's siding with the Joker. This is the guy who killed the Joker, and at the first outset of the series, he's kind of the leader of the modern Justice League. I mean, I think it's even acknowledged as the Justice Battalion, isn't it?
Given that he's leading the Justice Battalion, which is made up, visually, of new versions I came up with for the Charlton characters, which was not just a nod to them. I thought it would be kind of fun that, in a way, you're beginning with the characters that are the same archetypes that Alan Moore reworked for the sake of "Watchmen." So you've got Peacemaker, Thunderbolt, Captain Atom, Nightshade - God, who else? Judo Master. I didn't throw in the Question here, although, if you can see at the point where Superman is looking at all these TV screens of the damage that was done, one of the TV screens shows a lineup of these Justice Battalion guys, and you see the version of Peacemaker I designed next to the very Golden Age Daredevil version of Thunderbolt that I reworked, standing next to Blue Beetle and the Question. Of course Magog is not a Charlton character, or even a stand-in for one. But it was meant to show that this character is just simply the leader of the "now," the tougher, more go-in-and-kill-them kind of base of superheroes. The pitfall of that was a poorly managed disaster, where a low-level villain like the Parasite is able to siphon off of a nuclear-powered hero and that creates a nuclear devastation.
Did you volunteer right away to illustrate segments throughout all those "Justice Society" issues?
Oh, yeah. They were generally my idea, but Geoff came up with a lot of the key opportunities, deciding where they would be placed. I really wanted to do the one that, I don't know what issue it is, but the one that recreates that first page of "New Gods" #1.
I think the first time your interior art shows up is when Starman's thinking about the "Kingdom Come" universe.
Well, actually, the very first painted piece I did is in issue #1 of the new "Justice Society" book. You can see at the end of that issue there's a sliver of Kingdom Come's Superman, acknowledging the storyline to come. It was a real early thing that we were trying to plan. Of course, by the end of issue #2 you see Starman saying where he came from was blown to kingdom come, and then, of course, behind him, behind the figure that Dale Eaglesham drew, I painted a war pastiche of all this fighting going on that's basically meant to confound the viewer a little bit because I wasn't throwing any of the recognizable superheroes at you, yet. I wanted to save that up.
What about doing your own book, "Kingdom Come Special: Superman," when you had to write and illustrate it alone. Was it planned ahead of time that you were going to do this special, or did it just come about during the development of the storyline?
I knew I wanted to do interior pages to address a lot of these things I had pent up in me. I knew I wanted to retell what happened to Lois in the exact detail that it appears in my special, and I knew that I wanted to be the one to draw Superman looking up my dad [Norman McCay]. I was realizing as the writing of the book was going on that very, very little of the main "JSA" book was ever dealing with the fact that you've got this monumental Superman character here. He's really just a passive participant in most of whatever was going on with the main "JSA" book. My feeling was that Superman has to have his story told in great detail. That's why my special came into existence, because I was going to have to ultimately take the reins of that.
Surprisingly, Geoff responded to that with a lot of ambition, saying, "Why don't we create three specials? One will be focused on Magog, and then the third one was to be determined." I pitched the third one actually kind of reclaim the title "The Kingdom" from the project that they originally did without me. So I kind of retook my legacy. Which is, of course, what this is all about, in some way. It falls into the perception of, "Oh, well, this is what Alex would have done without Mark." Which is a sucky thing to have to be caught in the middle of, because it really is simply just a shame that myself and the co-creator of "Kingdom Come" didn't work well together. It sucks. I didn't want to be involved in any kind of drama like that, but here was this story that seemed like it was cool to tell, and I don't believe - aside from what we just said about the bad guy, Gog - that we really did such a grand disservice to his work, especially when it comes to the work of "Kingdom Come," the series itself.
When we ultimately lead up to our conclusion, the link to "Kingdom Come" keeps that work largely pristine. This work itself is somewhat meant to be a repudiation of the sequel to "Dark Knight," where the original author continues a tale that I believe was meant to be the last great adventure of that hero. What I wanted to make sure I did not do, when you see the pages that follow up at the end of the entire series in issue #22, we jump ahead into the future. I show you that, in the years to come, there wasn't any getting back in costume for Superman, or Batman, or Wonder Woman. They had a family. They didn't just have one kid, like they did in "The Kingdom." They had a whole slew of kids. You get the acknowledgement of life just going on. The shot in issue #22 that shows the funeral of Batman is meant to show all the survivors of "Kingdom Come." They're all people who were left alive at the end of that series, and you can see, twenty years later, they got twenty years older. Batman has, at that point, grandchildren. There's a sense that life went on, and it went on in a very normal way.
I wanted to jump ahead into the far future by showing with hundreds of years, then a thousand years passing, that what was key to me about "Kingdom Come" is that it really was the end of this age of superheroes. The next age would be the age of the Legion. So it would happen again, just not within a couple years of the end of "Kingdom Come," which is ultimately the series that I think many people would have wanted me to create - another painted miniseries that just continued with more of the same. This work, this entire thing in "JSA," is kind of an elaboration on why that wasn't appropriate.
Now that you've revisited these characters, you don't plan to do so again for a while, right?
Well, yeah, I should have put this to rest, that's for sure. At the end of the day, despite the fact that this "Kingdom Come" storyline is being collected in these standard, small hardcovers, this is not going to rival the readability and success or the legacy of "Kingdom Come." If anything, it's a footnote. For my part, I have put a fair amount of work into this, especially with the one-shot I did. It's probably going to prove to be a thing of its time, because the next people who take on doing the "JSA" will overhaul the characters, and God knows who they'll kill next, but it'll be completely unrecognizable, I'm sure, within just a couple of years. One might look at this storyline as being something a lot like a lot of DC continuity from the Nineties, which is so reworked now, compared to what it is today, that it's unrecognizable. What we did here was more of an entertaining fantasy of the moment. For those who have been curious to see me re-approach this material, I hope this was an interesting answer.
Well, I thought you were successful in fleshing out Superman more.
God knows, it would be easy to spend a lot more time with this version of the character. I really like Superman. I like Superman in all his different forms, but I particularly like the sense of his having the weight of the world on his shoulders. I like drawing his face and not having to hold back.

A controversial proposal to build a banquet facility on prime agricultural land on the Oak Ridges Moraine could test the limits of the protections in place for southern Ontario's so-called "rain barrel."
Restaurateur Peter Eliopoulos is seeking several zoning bylaw changes and an amendment to the Official Plan to construct three tented outdoor wedding gardens, dubbed Peter and Paul's, and a children's camp on his 49-hectare property in King Township, near Hwy-400 and Weston Rd.
But residents and environmentalists opposed to the project say a commercial venture has no place in an area protected under the Oak Ridges Moraine Act, and accuse Eliopoulos of getting a head start without the necessary permits.
Environmental lawyer David Donnelly will represent local residents when the case goes before the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) in November. Over the past decade, Donnelly said the site has been bulldozed, stripped of topsoil and dug out to create an extensive waterway.
"We have real concerns now that he (Eliopoulos) is operating an illegal water feature," Donnelly said. "It serves no other purpose other than he's paved the way for a future banquet facility. But if he had to start from scratch, he wouldn't have a gondola's chance in the middle of the Atlantic of getting an approval."
Eliopoulos referred questions from the Star to his lawyer, Michael Melling, who maintained that the restaurateur has "complied in all respects with the law."
Melling said Eliopoulos submitted an application to the township for the site alterations, which were performed by a subcontractor. But that application was never processed, Melling said.
"As far as my client knew, the contractor had all the required approvals. It was only later that he discovered that for whatever reason they had failed to grant to approval," Melling said.
According to Melling, the township did not take any enforcement action against Eliopoulos because "there was absolutely nothing wrong or untoward" about creating a pond.
"It was to the benefit to the environmental health of the property," Melling said.
Melling said his opponents are propagating "a number of inaccuracies" about the project, which includes enhancing habitats for endangered butternut tree as well as protecting important natural heritage features.
"What my client is proposing is actually a real environmental enhancement and restoration opportunity," he said.
But that's not how local residents see it. George Puccia, who has lived with his family on a horse farm across from the property since the '80s, is concerned about noise and traffic issues, as well as the potential drain on the shallow aquifer.
"If it dries up my well, I'm snookered," Puccia said.
Eliopoulos first applied to build Peter and Paul's in 2011. But in February, with no decision from King Township, he appealed to the OMB.
On Monday, councillors in King are expected to outline the position they will take at the OMB hearing, and vote on whether to adopt a staff report on the project — which Donnelly said will be "a critical moment."
Written by township planning staff, the report recommends redesignating the property from "prime agricultural" to "rural," but denying the exceptions required for the banquet facility and children's camp.
"If council endorses the staff report, then they will be a full party at the OMB," Donnelly said. "If they vote the other way, and side with the developer, then we'll have a major brawl on our hands."

EM Germany: The Beginning of a New Era? – Bernd Lange MEP on CETA
With a majority of 408 to 254 votes and 33 abstains, the European Parliament just backed the free trade deal with Canada, known as CETA. Already a week before, on February 9, EM Germany invited Bernd Lange MEP, chair of European Parliament's International Trade Committee, for an "EBD Exklusiv" event to report and discuss the agreement with experts of European Movement Germany member organisations. The discussions included the comprehensive content of the landmark trade deal as well as the improvable communication strategy about the same with the European citizens, among other topics.
Our concise summary of the main discussions can be found on our website – report in German.

This article includes discussion of erythromelalgia, erythermalgia, and Mitchell disease. The foregoing terms may include synonyms, similar disorders, variations in usage, and abbreviations.
The authors have summarized erythromelalgia in this article. Discoveries of sodium channel mutations help our understanding of a variety of pain syndromes, including erythromelalgia. The authors further elaborate on its differential diagnosis, pathophysiology, and the current management options. Importantly, the role of aspirin in the diagnosis and management of secondary erythromelalgia has been emphasized.
Key points
• Erythromelalgia is characterized by episodic vasodilation associated with severe burning pain in the extremities.
• Primary erythromelalgia can be either familial or sporadic.
• Gain-of-function mutations of gene SCN9A (which encodes the Nav1.7 sodium channel) are present in many patients with primary erythromelalgia.
• Secondary erythromelalgia often presents as a symptom of underlying disease. It is most often associated with myeloproliferative diseases; in these cases it can be remarkably responsive to treatment with aspirin.
• Although many medications have been used for the treatment of erythromelalgia, the cornerstone of treatment is genetic counseling and avoidance of triggers.
Historical note and terminology
Erythromelalgia, or "Mitchell disease," was first described by Dr. Silas Wier Mitchell in 1878 (Mitchell 1878). Erythromelalgia, which literally means red, painful extremities, describes an exceedingly rare, chronic condition that is characterized by the clinical triad of pronounced erythema, painful burning, and elevated skin temperature usually around the extremities (Davis 2004; Waxman and Dib-Hajj 2005a; Waxman and Dib-Hajj 2005b). Clinically, erythromelalgia presents as intense redness (erythros) and severe pain (algia) in the extremities (melos). Erythermalgia, the alternative name of the condition, describes the elevated temperature (thermos) that is often noticed in the affected areas.
Although first described in 1878, the first major study reporting the incidence of erythromelalgia was conducted in 1932 at the Mayo Clinic. The study estimated the incidence of the disease to be in the range of 1 case per 40,000 patients (Brown 1932). In the mid-1980s, an epidemic outbreak of erythromelalgia occurred among rural inhabitants in China, prompting medical professionals to investigate the characteristic distribution of the disorder (Zheng et al 1988). A comprehensive study undertaken in Norway in 1997 estimated the incidence of erythromelalgia to be 0.25/100,000 and prevalence 2/100,000, further strengthening the notion that the original Mayo Clinic study may have overreported the overall incidence of the disease (Kvernebo and Seem 1987; Kalgaard et al 1997).
Studies in experimental animals have shown that the Nav1.7 sodium channel, which is preferentially expressed with dorsal root ganglion neurons and sympathetic ganglion neurons (Toledo-Aral et al 1997; Rush et al 2006), plays a major role in inflammatory pain (Black et al 2004; Nassar et al 2004), but until the demonstration of mutations of Nav1.7 in patients with erythromelalgia, there was no definitive evidence for a role of this channel in pain in humans. Erythromelalgia is the first known human pain syndrome to be examined at a molecular level. Interestingly, primary erythromelalgia is also the first known human disease that involves the Nav1.7 sodium channel.

Published in 2000 – Methuen Publishing
The Accused is a tense courtroom drama with a difference. The audience will act as the jury, as if they were in the Central Criminal Court at the Old Bailey. You will have to decide…Did Dr Sherwood murder his wife? Was Jennifer Mitchell his mistress? Which of his alibis should you believe?
The choice will keep you on the edge of your seats, and at the end of the trial you will be invited to deliver your verdict of guilty or not guilty. Once you have made that decision the play will continue – with one of two different endings, depending on your verdict. Only then will you finally discover the truth.
The Accused was presented by Lee Menzies at the Theatre Royal, Haymarket, London on 5 December 2000, having received its world premiere performance at the Theatre Royal, Windsor, on 26 September, 2000. The play also starred Edward Petherbridge, Michael Feast and Tony Britton, with Jeffrey taking on his first West End role, playing the part of the accused, Dr Patrick Sherwood.

Tips for saving the most on Coach Bags when shopping Coach Outlet Online:
How to Get a Coach factory online sale invitation –
- In order to shop the Coach Factory Outlet sale online, the process has recently changed. Coach outlet online has released this new FAQ that says you'll need to sign up in one of the outlet stores, and then hope they send you an invite (it's free to join). They frequently have sales on their Coach online site, and send out invitations at random. I also suggest logging into your account from time to time, as I find lots of their sales just by checking in.
- You can sign up online for the Coach Factory Store too, and they may send you an invite. There is no guarantee they will, but its good to try if you do not have a Factory store near you. Invites are offered an random online, so just remember that you may not get one.
- We have heard from readers that Coach is limiting their access to the online Coach Outlet sales. This means that folks are getting fewer invites to the factory sales, so expect that as a possibility.
- Make sure you are only shopping at the real factory store if you are shopping at the Coach Factory outlet online (https://www.coachoutlet.com). There are many efforts on the internet to trick you into thinking you are shopping the coach factory online store, when in fact you are buying a knock off. Sites that look something like coachfactoryoutlet (insert other text here).com are trying to make you think you are getting a real bag when in fact you are not.
- Coach Outlets carry two kinds of discounted bags primarily: a) clearanced out Coach bags from the regular Coach store, and b) bags made just for the factory stores. The best deal will be the clearanced out bags from the regular Coach store. The easiest way to identify which is which, is to shop in store and ask the associates. We have also heard that the designs for the outlet stores carry an F in the serial number too. Both bags are created with the higher end materials that Coach is known for, but the ones designed for the outlet will have fewer special details (hence the lesser price).
- If you have a Coach Factory Outlet store near you, consider shopping in-store vs at the Coach Factory Outlet online. There are a couple of good reasons for this: a) you can view the merchandise in person and know what you want, and b) no special invite is required, so everyone will have access to these sales.
- These sales are intended for people to buy items for their own personal use. That means that if you are buying in bulk (10 items or more) you may get denied access to future sales. We have heard from a number of readers who have had their access blocked as a result of too many purchases, so this is an important tip to keep in mind. This is to prevent folks from buying these items for the purpose of reselling them.
- If you have a Coach purse that has broken (zipper, handle. etc), take it to your local Coach or Coach Outlet store location and you can pay a modest fee to have it repaired. This will save you tons over purchasing a new bag!
- If there is no specific sale going on, you can also check out sites like 6pm.com for discount Coach items, or Savings.com for Coach Coupons to help you save more!
You can also visit Coach Outlet stores for more great savings. Find a Coach Outlet Store location near you here!

World of Warcraft races and characters
Making sense of WoW characters and races can be confusing. Here is a quick guide to figuring out who's who.
There are 6 playable races that are for the Alliance. They are Human,
- Dwarf,
- Night Elf,
- Gnome,
- Drainei,
- Worgen.
6 other races are for the Horde. They are
- Orc,
- Undead,
- Tauren,
- Troll,
- Blood Elf,
- Goblin.
The Pandaren are neutral and can be either Alliance or Horde.
Other races also exist in the game. These cannot be played with, though. They include
- dragons,
- elementals,
- eternal,
- deities,
- and a few others.
Humans have three main racial traits. The Human Spirit gives them additional bonuses on secondary stats. Diplomacy means that they get on well with other races. Every Man for Himself can counter stun effects. They can choose between 9 different classes.
- Aegwynn – When she was alive, Aegwynn was an Archmage and the Guardian of Tirisfal.
- Darion Mograine – He was a paladin but became an undead death knight.
- Bolvar Fordragon – The Lich King, once the Regent Lord of Stormwind.
Dwarven characters receive bonuses on archaeology and critical strikes. Dwarves can also turn to living stone and resist frost magic. They can choose to be one of 10 classes. The three dwarven types are Ironforge, Wildhammer and Dark Iron.
- Brann Bronzebeard – An archaeologist, ambassador, translator and adventurer, not a fighter.
- Falstad Wildhammer – A gryphon-riding member of the Council of Three Hammers.
- Moira Thaurissan née Bronzebeard – Widowed queen-regent of Ironforge and the Dark Iron clan.
Night Elves
Night elves have many magic abilities and an affinity with nature. There are 9 classes available to them. Using Wisp Spirit or Shadowmeld, they can camouflage themselves. There are other types of elves that cannot be played. They are Half-Elves and High Elves.
- Queen Azshara – Became ruler of Nazjatar after becoming a naga demigod.
- Illidan Stormrage – A sorcerer who was transformed into a demon.
- Tyrande Whisperwind – High-priestess of Elune and co-ruler of the Night Elves.
Agile, gnomes have Escape Artist and Nimble Fingers as traits. They are also highly intelligent and have Engineering Specialization. Eight classes are available to them.

- Millhouse Manastorm – A Forgemaster and warlock, using magic in battle.
- Sicco Thermaplugg – A Gnomeregan leper who uses mechanised suits of armour.
The Drainei
Adept at healing and jewel crafting, Drainei is like spiritual outcasts. They can resist Shadow magic and have 8 possible classes. Their mysterious power often makes them good priests and sorcerers. They often practice magic and resemble druids in nature.

- Velen – A prophet-priest, he was once Leader of the Aldor.
- Restalaan – An immensely powerful hunter and friend to Velen.
Worgen are powerful werewolf-like creatures who were cursed. They can change shape but are lupine in temperament. Their racial traits include Running Wild, Flayer and Darkflight. 8 classes are available to them.
- Genn Greymane – King of Gilneas, Greymane is also a warrior.
- Darius Crowley – The leader of the Gilneas Liberation Front and ally of Greymane.
Very like giant pandas in appearance, the Pandaren are nomadic. They remind one of the Buddhist fighting monks in nature. Inner Peace and Quaking Palm traits suit the monk class well. They only have 7 possible classes.
- Chen Stormstout – A legendary Brewmaster and wandering monk of no specific affiliation.
- Shaohao – The last emperor of Pandaria, deceased but active in spirit form.
- Taran Zhu – A monk and warrior dedicated to keeping the peace in Pandaria.
Like orcs in other fantasy worlds, they are vicious and ugly. Fierce in battle, their traits include Hardiness and Blood Fury. With 8 classes available, they make some of the best warriors. There are different orc races and half races. They are Orcs, Fel Orcs, Mag'har, half-orcs, and Mok'nathal.
- Thrall – Born as Go'el, he is a shaman and warrior.
- Garona Halforcen – Half-Drainei, she is a rogue and former assassin.

This is a race that was raised from the dead. Some of their creepy traits include Cannibalize and Touch of the Grave. There are three types of undead: Corporeal, Incorporeal and Skeletal. They can become one of 8 classes.
- Sylvanas Windrunner – An undead elf and Banshee, she is Warchief of the Horde.
- Blood-Queen Lana'thel – A vampiric San'layn who were made undead by the Lich King.

- Grand Magister Rommath – Grandmaster of Quel'Thalas and an archmage.

- Jastor Gallywix – Trade Prince of the Bilgewater Cartel.
- Gazlowe – An engineer is known as the Garrison Architect.

In later versions of WoW, you can recruit 6 races to your faction. They are Dark Iron Dwarfs, Lightforged Draenei, Void Elves. Horde recruits are Highmountain Tauren, Mag'har Orcs and Nightborne. These races are variations of those already mentioned.

Florida Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria and team president Dave Samson have been exposed for the treacherous, no good, low down, lying dogs they are. Sports blog Deadspin got a hold of the Marlins' financial information which shows the team turned a profit the last two years and that the team could have financed construction of its own stadium at the old Orange Bowl site.
Reading the documents makes me so ill that I can't wait to see County Manager George Burgess and Mayor Carlos Alvarez, the chief architects of the boondoggle, hit the road in 2012. Thanks again guys for letting Loria and Samson stick it up the collective asses of every Miami-Dade taxpayer. Bunch of chumps!

Fall 2008 photos contributed by Dave Handa
Note: The cinderblock building pictured was the Air Force long-range radar (LRR) Operations building for the 635th Radar Squadron (SAGE) [which originally operated down at McChord AFB]. The circular pad was for one (of two) AN/FPS-6 height-finder radar towers. The Army also had two AN/FPS-6 height-finder radars, but the Army's radars were mounted on open steel "temperate" towers (as seen in our vintage photos) instead of enclosed "arctic" radar towers with radomes. One Air Force AN/FPS-6 height-finder radar was later replaced by an AN/FPS-26 frequency-diverse height-finder radar (which had better anti-jamming capabilities); that installation, however, took place in 1963 only months before the Air Force moved out.
The following are some interior shots of Bldg 653, the Ops building
This photo and the one following are a cable run that goes directly west into the FAA complex.
This cable run goes in a generally northwest direction.

Brioche French Toast with Fresh Figs
Sweet, dark purple Mission figs are a favorite for this dish, but golden Calimyrnas, yellow-green Kadotas and green Adriatics are also good choices, or use a mix of varieties. Choose figs that are soft to the touch but not bruised and use them promptly, as they spoil quickly. If you have brioche left over from making bread pudding, this is a great way to use it. Serve the French toast with orange blossom maple syrup or regular maple syrup.
For the orange blossom maple syrup (optional):
- 1 cup maple syrup
- 1 1/2 tsp. orange flower water
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
For the batter:
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
- 1 Tbs. sugar
- 2 tsp. grated orange zest
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp. salt
- 2 tsp. unsalted butter
- 8 slices day-old brioche, 3/4 inch thick, with crusts
- 8 fresh figs such as Mission, quartered
To make the orange blossom maple syrup, in a small saucepan over low heat, warm the maple syrup. Pour into a small bowl or pitcher and stir in the orange flower water and vanilla until well blended. Serve warm. Or, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Warm over low heat before serving.
To make the batter, in a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, orange juice, sugar, orange zest, vanilla and salt. Pour the batter into a baking dish.
In a large fry pan over medium heat, melt 1 tsp. of the butter and continue to heat until it foams but does not brown.
Place 4 of the bread slices in the batter and let stand for 5 seconds. Turn the slices over and let stand for 5 seconds more. Using tongs, lift the slices from the batter, letting any excess drip back into the baking dish, and transfer to the hot pan. Cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Turn the slices over and cook until browned on the other side, about 2 minutes more. Using clean tongs, transfer to a warmed platter. Repeat with the remaining butter, batter and bread slices.
Divide the French toast among individual plates and arrange the figs on top and alongside. Serve immediately. Pass the syrup at the table. Serves 4.

A bid this year for small cable operator Insight Communications failed, though, he said. Insight ended its auction amid the global credit crunch, which has hampered private equity groups' ability to bid on assets. However, Britt said at the annual Global Media & Communications Conference that other small cable operators, especially ones without a triple-play product, could come up for sale.Asked whether the lack of carriage of the NFL Network has had an impact on his firm, Britt shrugged the channel off as "less than exciting" and said he has seen "relatively little consumer reaction."The TWC boss also told investors that cable systems in Los Angeles and Dallas, which needed much upgrade work after their purchase from Adelphia Communications and Comcast Corp., are stabilized now and will contribute to the cable giant's growth in 2008. next year.But he also admitted that the two markets have seen some competitive impact from Verizon's FiOS TV and AT&T's U-verse video services. "They have made good headway there, especially Verizon," Britt said. But he also emphasized that the telecom competitors' financial impact on TWC is "pretty small right now." He also said that his firm is not bidding in the current wireless spectrum auction as he doesn't feel it needs to aggressively push into wireless for competitive reasons for now. "We will not be in this auction," he said. Britt added that a consortium of TWC, other cable firms and Sprint hasn't "completely decided" yet how to use some spectrum it owns, but is about to "spending some money" to clear it.He also allayed investor fears that the cable operator could spend large amounts on wireless. "I have no intention to build the fifth wireless network," because that's already a crowded market and would cost a lot, Britt said. While he didn't rule out shelling out capital on wireless if there is "a good investment case as an offensive move" in the future, he said TWC will be sensible and invest over years rather than dumping a lot of cash overnight.Comcast also said Monday that it has decided not to bid in the 700 MHz wireless spectrum auction. "The 20 MHz of spectrum acquired in the wireless auction last year with our cable partners in SpectrumCo provides us with significant long-term flexibility and many strategic options," Comcast senior vp D'Arcy Rudnay said in a statement. "We will continue to explore how wireless can complement our services through various partnerships and consumer trials.

I love te Man Repeller blog and am especially enjoying these fun pics of Leandra Medine wearing Zara around NYC.
Dying to get my hands on those flared trousers!
It's all about the contrasting, Missoni-esque details with this gorgeous Zara knit.
It was a very cold day in Liverpool today and so I layered up to stop the chill.
Black jeans are my current fav and this pair were really cheap from Primark, they're a great fit. These Vans shoes are pretty much the only leopard print you'll find in my wardrobe as I tend to stay away from this over-done pattern on clothing.
I have had this Zara coat for ages now but it's such a classic colour and shape that it always fits my outfits. The big H&M is great for shopping days, I'm in love with my grey Zara jumper and the denim shirt adds a little contrast and was from Primark.
The New York Times called her 'the guardian of all style', she is a photographer, an illustrator, blogger, genius and an idol of mine. In 2011 she illustrated a special edition cover of Elle magazine and I won a copy, I was in love.
One of my other fashion loves is Zara, I'm constantly getting carried away when presented with such a focused, stylish, sleek store on the high street. So many outfits, so little time!
Put Garance Doré and Zara in the same sentence and you've already got my avid attention before I even see the photographs.
I was shopping in Zara Liverpool (buying gold shoes and grey knitwear) when I saw the lovely, fun, ever so stylish pictures of Garance blown up to epic proportions on a wall sized screen.
Go and check out what I'm all a fussing about at the constant source of inspiration that is GaranceDoré.fr and if you want to buy something gorgeous to wear don't forget zara.com.
These are a few of my favourite things
New and old
All in the theme of
Black & Gold
As it is November and we're all in need of a small boost I thought I'd show you some of the things that are helping to brighten my gloomy days.
New shoes are always guaranteed to bring a smile to my face, this lovely pair from Zara were £39.99 and in my opinion are very Christmas party worthy.
Of course there had to be a perfume in this list and I adore this one by Dolce & Gabbana and if I smell like the beautiful Scarlet Johansson perhaps I'll find a French man to marry!
This wedding favour sits with my perfumes and I see it everyday, it's a lovely reminder of my best friends amazing day and a subtle hint to be like a strong lioness.
I love this chic little pencil case from H&M, I keep my essential pencils and pens in it for off-the-cuff drawing as its compact enough to fit in my handbag.
This small ceramic and gold trinket box is where I keep matches for lighting candles, it's prettier to look at than a match box.
You may have seen this watch on my OOTD posts because I wear it every day. It's by Anglo-Swedish partnership Larsson & Jennings and was a gift to myself at the end of a bad year, it's a very beautiful watch and reminds me that independence is so important, even if you're in a partnership.
I've had this wrist cuff for years, so long I can't remember where I bought it. It's only a costume piece but has a very transformative effect when paired with a simple grey tee or black dress.
This new tee from H&M is great with high waisted skinny jeans and I love the graphic logo encased in super shiny shimmery gold.
I don't like Mondays, that's an understatement really but the point is they're bad! Really bad! I find myself searching, when I should be on my way to work already, for something happy to wear that will make me feel better about the day that marks the beginning of the working week.
So my Monday outfit consisted of a beautifully soft, warm, Zara turtleneck sweater and a New Look pencil skirt with a vibrant floral print.
Worn with black tights and a pair of H&M boots with a chunky heel and tough zip.
I did a cat-eye flick and a pink lip colour, Mac 'Hip 'N' Happy' lip pencil.

Precious time is often lost through the handling of Best Pos System For Small Retail Stores . Similarly, the more cash is handled the greater the security risk in stores. Fortunately, Point of Sale (POS) technology is making better control of cash in retail stores possible, resulting in benefit for both staff and customers.
One German furniture company has estimated that the payment process and handling of cash at the checkout takes between 15 to 25 seconds. As this is only one part of processing pos system, 15 to 25 seconds is quite substantial time and, when the seconds are calculated for the cash handling from every sale throughout the day…till operators are spending more time on this process than most business owners would like.
Then, there is also the concern of cash robbery and theft. On any given day in a retail business, one, a few or many more employees will handle cash. Think how many different times and how many different people will handle cash in a supermarket on any one day. It is also probable that many managers are reconciling cash and making deposits, which is why they use point of sale systems.
How Do You Select the Best Point Of Sale Systems in Best Pos System For Small Retail Stores ?
A point of sale system is an important tool in any business, whether it is large or small, that engages in any type of sales. These systems use the amazing power of computing to perform a number of tasks that can simplify every aspect of a businesses, including but not limited to; sales, inventory and ordering.
From simple functions, like scanning barcodes and calculating correct change, to more complex functions like inventory control, a point of sale system can help make any business run more efficiently. Even basic systems can represent a huge time savings. These systems eliminate paper work by simplifying every aspect of a business's operation. Not only that, because many systems offer back-ups and on-line information storage a business can access information even from remote locations. So, whether it is at a traditional cash register or with a sales associate that is working in the field, these systems are powerful tools.
Early in the life of a company perhaps a fairly simple POS system will be adequate, but it should be capable of taking on more complex tasks as your business grows. Not all systems, just like not all businesses, are the same. So it is important to consider, how you will use it, and how adaptable to your future needs a point of sales system will be for your business.
Point Of Sale Systems
There are a number of channels of distribution available to the producer, which may be employed by him to bring his products to the market and use point of sale software. Consumer goods may be distributed generally through channels, in each of which the manufacturers may use the sales branch or sales office as the additional alternative. One of the channels used is Producer-Consumer, where no middleman is involved. Sales are made from house to house or by direct mail.
A second channel is Producer-Retailer-Consumer, by which goods may be purchased directly from manufacturers. Retail stores may also be opened by manufacturers by this channel.
A stockist or distributor or wholesaler is also a large sized operator but not on par with the marketer or sole selling agent in level, size and territory of operation. Stock holding and sub-distribution, as per the policies laid down by the manufacturers or the marketers, are the main functions of stockists/distributors pos retail equipment.
Point of Sale - Are these Five Steps Increase Product Sales Through Your POS Display?
Point of sale (POS) systems are used by hundreds of businesses in order to streamline the purchasing process as well as track the various financial and inventory data that relates to the sales made. Although the general concept behind each system is virtually the same, different industries can purchase POS systems that are tailor made for their needs. Think of it is a delivery service: A bike delivery would work fine for a local newspaper, but UPS would have to shut down if it didn't have delivery trucks. The same concept applies to POS sale systems used in retail stores, restaurants, and hotels. Each specific industry can benefit from a system that is designed for their specific needs.
Retail POS systems are specialized at quick and easy one time sales. The items stored in their database are well defined, and although there can be many colors or sizes offered for one item, there isn't very much variation in the product. If one person buys a black jacket, although the jacket comes in blue, all the people who buy the black on are still getting the same item. This is why retail POS systems are the simplest in nature. In regards to the sale process, all they need is to pull up an item's information from inventory and remove it upon purchase. Of course, this is just in reference the the sales aspect of the system; there are still complex inventory control settings and sales efficiency metrics that that can be used, but in terms of making a sale, the retail system is the most simplistic.
Clearly, when starting a business it important to take the industry specific POS into account. Don't just try and find the best deal, but rather what will work best to make your company run efficiently. Understanding why each system is unique will help when trying to make the decision for what POS system to purchase. Although the examples given were for specific industries, the systems can be applied to different industries that have similar purchasing processes: The retail POS can be used in stores ranging from clothing to electronics and the restaurant system can be used in various hospitality related industries.

Do You Even Science?? COME AT ME, BRO! Margaret Sanger in the Smithsonian & Other Atrocities
So you may have heard that Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood and noted eugenicist and racist has been enshrined with a bust in the Smithsonian in an exhibit honoring champions of human rights. Aside from the absolute absurdity of a racist being honored beside Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Rosa Parks, there is a sign beneath the bust of this evil bitch which reads, "During her campaign, Sanger became associated with the eugenics movement – which promoted, among other practices, the forced sterilization of those deemed mentally unfit and for a time was endorsed by many of the era's prominent thinkers." Not only do I find her inclusion in such an exhibit absolutely repugnant, I struggle to understand what in the actual fuck championing eugenics, racial genocide and abortion has to do with human rights. We have really entered the Twilight Zone here, folks. Someone actually told me that not including Margaret Sanger in this exhibit was "white washing history." I literally could not think of a reply for almost 10 minutes. Censoring history?? Putting that bitch in any exhibition as a champion of humanity is what's white washing history. I could not believe this guy said that, especially considering how high the rate of elective abortions is among minorities, specifically African-Americans. 'Champion of human rights?' Sounds like her disgusting legacy is still alive and well (so to speak). Of course, when you mention Margaret Sanger or Planned Parenthood for any reason, it inevitably turns into a debate about abortion.
Now, I've been involved in the abortion debate for a number of years. 20, to be exact. In that time, I have heard a great many arguments from the pro-choice side and there is one main argument that never ceases to amaze me: "Abortion does not kill a human being." This is the basic premise on which nearly all other pro-choice arguments rest, such as "It's not a human being yet" or "It's not a baby until it's born" and other scientifically unsupportable gems. The problem with this basic premise is that, well… it's not true. At all. It's not even close to true.
The science is very clear here: life begins at conception. This cannot be argued. The only argument is whether or not that life matters to you, but pro-choice people seem uncomfortable actually confronting that. They argue around it, essentially claiming, "Human life matters to me – but it's not a human yet." Then what is it? Is it a fish? Is it a dog? Is it a tomato? It's a human being and there is never a time during human development in which a human being is not a human being. That argument is not only not scientific, it's silly. It seems to exist solely to dupe vulnerable women into believing they are not killing living human beings. Perhaps some make that argument because to them, the offspring of the poor and of minorities aren't really human beings.
This usually leads to (or is accompanied by) the argument that a person is not a person until they reach sentience and/or consciousness. This argument actually hurts the pro-choice side though, because the time in development where this occurs is unknown. There is speculation but that's all. This leaves the door open for the other side to claim that if the time is unknown, abortion at any time under these guidelines would be wrong. Not that it really matters; attempting to quantify (and qualify) life by the yardstick of sentience and/or consciousness is not how it works. It's subjective emotional argument at best. Science and medicine both agree that life begins at conception. It is only people seeking to rationalize their behavior and decisions who claim that it doesn't. If we use sentience in particular as the yardstick, it's OK to kill many living things, not just unborn human beings. The 18th-century philosopher Jeremy Bentham stated in Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation that "The French have already discovered that the blackness of the skin is no reason why a human being should be abandoned without redress to the caprice of a tormentor… What else is it that should trace the insuperable line? Is it the faculty of reason, or, perhaps, the faculty of discourse? But a full-grown horse or dog is beyond comparison a more rational, as well as a more conversable animal, than an infant of a day, or a week, or even a month, old. But suppose the case were otherwise, what would it avail? The question is not Can they reason? nor, Can they talk? but, Can they suffer?" Since this question cannot be definitively answered regarding prenatal human beings – and even many "post-natal" human beings – it is wiser that the pro-choice side leave it out of the debate. You could use the sentience argument to argue for the "termination" of many people, including the profoundly disabled, some elderly folks, people in comas… the list goes on. This particular argument has been used to justify some very nasty things throughout history, and conversely it is used to protect animals in legislature, including animals such as octopus, squids and lobsters.
It all sounds very intellectual for the ignorant and uneducated to use these arguments but I have often found that sounding intellectual is as far as it goes. Too many of them are just repeating something they read and are completely unable to back up what they've said or even explain it. They simply keep repeating it verbatim, a sure sign that they don't actually understand what they've said. This is often where the "blastocyst" argument comes in to play. I have heard this I don't know how many times: "Aborting a blastocyst is not wrong." Well, that may be your opinion but since a human being is only a blastocyst for a very short time and this is weeks before the woman even knows she is pregnant, I would venture that not too many blastocysts are aborted.
Literally two seconds of research would have kept these people from making such an absurdly ignorant argument, but they don't do it. The consensus here seems to be, "I don't know what it means but it sounds science-y and probably no one else will know, either." Wrong. And I am always happy to point it out. The "chicken egg" argument fits into this area, as well. You know the one I am talking about… it compares an unborn human being to the chicken eggs people eat. There is a meme floating around that has been shared thousands of times which makes this exact comparison and it always makes me laugh. The chicken eggs people eat are unfertilized. They will never grow into a chicken, no matter what happens. Chicken eggs are equivalent to the unfertilized eggs in a woman's ovaries, not a developing human being in the uterus. They are not comparable in any sense. Do you even science, bro?
There are many like that in this particular debate. They argue in circles and they cannot concede any points in the debate because they don't actually know enough to know if the other person is right or wrong. These are, coincidentally (or not), the same people who argue that abortion does not kill a human being. People like this are the weak link in the pro choice's side. They try the religious angle. They try the sentience angle. They try the "it's not a human being yet" angle. They try every emotional argument they can think of in order to "shame" others into agreeing that they are correct. It doesn't work with me, and it's not going to work. You cannot trump science and the science here is very basic and very clear. Abortion is killing a human being, and you will not find even one doctor, scientist or educated individual who tries to claim that it isn't. Even the president of Planned Parenthood said in an interview with Ms. Magazine that abortion is killing, and that anyone who believes otherwise is essentially deluding themselves because they don't want to admit it.
- Naomi Wolf (noted feminist author and proponent of abortion) stated in Our Bodies, Our Souls that, "Clinging to a rhetoric about abortion in which there is no life and no death, we entangle our beliefs in a series of self-delusions, fibs and evasions. …we need to contextualize the fight to defend abortion rights within a moral framework that admits that the death of a fetus is a real death."
- Ann Furedi, CEO of the largest independent abortion provider in the UK, stated flatly during a debate that "the point is not when does human life begin, but when does it really begin to matter?"
- Bernard Nathanson, co-founder of NARAL Pro-Choice America stated, "There is simply no doubt that even the early embryo is a human being. All its genetic coding and all its features are indisputably human. As to being, there is no doubt that it exists, is alive, is self-directed, and is not the the same being as the mother–and is therefore a unified whole." (Dr. Nathanson later recanted his support for the pro-choice movement.)
So keep on arguing that abortion does not kill a human being, my ignorant friends. Science does not agree with you. Medicine does not agree with you. The educated people on your own side do not agree with you. In fact, you embarrass them. And why? Because they are educated. They know they cannot refute this simple fact – and they don't try. This ridiculous argument is only used by people who are ignorant. If you are OK with this kind of killing, then just say so. Stop pretending that it's something else. If you have to do that, maybe you are not as OK with it as you claim to be. These people cannot accept the facts, and instead try to advance opinions as facts. That cannot be done. If you want to argue an opinion, then you have to accept facts. The fact – according to sweeping consensus medically and scientifically – is that abortion kills a human being. Either accept that as a fact and be OK with it or don't, but don't keep trying to advance your opinion as a fact. You can argue your opinion, such as why you think killing a human being in this instance is OK, but you cannot argue that the facts are not facts. It's irrational and it makes you look foolish.
The simple truth is that these particular people refuse to just flat out say the life of an unborn human being does not matter to them. They argue around it, and in that direction but they will never just admit it. They try to use science to avoid having to say it, or to justify their feelings. They use emotional argument to try to shame people into agreeing that unborn human beings are less important than the rest of us – ironically while they are blasting the pro-life side for using emotional argument and being too blinded by emotion to use logic. Like I said, do you even science, bro? It is the pro-choice side using emotional argument, flawed logic and pseudo-intellectualism to advance their agenda. Anyone who does not agree, they attempt to insult, browbeat and shame with absurdities:
- "You want women to be forced to have babies!!!" No, I want women to use contraception like responsible adults. I don't subscribe to your insulting, ridiculous theory that humans are not above rutting dogs in the street that can't control themselves. This argument sickens me.
- "Yeah, well… accidents happen!!!" They do, which is what the morning after pill was invented for. It does not terminate a pregnancy. It prevents conception. Huge difference.
- "You want rape victims to have their attackers' babies!!" Again, the morning after pill. The American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology did a study that concluded pregnancy results from about 5% of rapes. But since pregnancies resulting from rape and incest account for less than 0.03% of abortions, save your strawman arguments and talk about a real problem – such as the staggering amount (over a million) of elective abortions performed in this country every year that terminate pregnancies created by irresponsible consensual sex. To put it into context: according to RAINN, there are an average of 293,000 sexual assaults (a phrase which encompasses a variety of despicable things, not just forcible rape with vaginal penetration) every year. Even if every single one of these sexual assaults was a rape that resulted in a pregnancy, and even taking under-reporting of rape into account, that still means that over one million children are aborted in this country every year as a result of consensual sex. As an aside, abortion after rape actually occurs at a lower instance than abortion in the general population because abortion inflicts another trauma on the woman – and worse, it is one that puts her in the position of aggressor.
- "You want women to have back alley abortions that aren't safe!!!" It was generally doctors performing abortions when they were illegal, just like it is generally doctors performing them now. That is not a genuine concern. What should be of concern is that women are neither counseled about nor made aware of the health risks of abortion, both mentally and physically.
- "You want to control women's bodies!!!" No, I want women to control their own bodies and stop getting pregnant with babies they don't want and/or can't take care of. It's pretty simple and it's really not that difficult to fucking do.
- "You're not pro-life! You're pro-birth!!!" My husband and I have 3 children and helped raise 5 – yes, 5 – children that are not ours, including having 4 of them live with us for years, bringing the total in our home to 7. We are parents to them in every way, even to this day. Their children will be looked upon as grandchildren by us. They were not foster children and we received absolutely no financial help with their care whatsoever from their parents or the government. My interest and concern for human beings does not end with the birth canal. Come at me.
- "You don't care about women's rights!!!" Yes, I do. Women are human beings and I care about human rights. Unborn human beings belong in that category. If we are making emotional arguments here, allow me to counter yours with my own: Why do you think people should have the right to kill their own children just because they want to? If it's OK to kill them in the womb, why is it not OK to kill them later? Are newborns human beings? Are they sentient? Are they conscious in the way adults are? I read a paper in the Journal of Medical Ethics a few years ago entitled, "After-birth Abortion: Why Should The Baby Live?" that endorsed the killing of born babies using the same arguments made to justify abortion. The authors stated that "killing a newborn should be permissible in all the cases where abortion is, including cases where the newborn is not disabled." The paper claimed that babies are "morally irrelevant" and that it is "not possible to damage a newborn by preventing her from developing the potentiality to become a person in the morally relevant sense." The crux of the argument is that a fetus and an infant are "morally equivalent." These arguments have been made many times, by the way; in some cases regarding children up to a year old – or older. This particular paper endorsed "no threshold." If you are a person who agrees with the justifications for abortion, you are left with absolutely no argument for what these people are saying, other than "Because it's just wrong after the baby is born." That isn't much of an argument and it begs the question: if one is OK and not the other, what does this mean? It means you either have to agree that killing babies after they are born is morally acceptable or you have to agree that abortion is not morally acceptable. It can't be both ways. The larger question is: This is all OK because of women's rights? I once had a lady say to me, "If you take politics out of it, it's really a women's rights issue." I said, "Ma'am, women's rights is politics. You take that out of it and all we are talking about here is dead babies."
Often, the people making these emotionally-overwrought accusations try to construct their pro-choice arguments within the sketchy framework that "abortion is the compassionate option for unwanted children" but they are too afraid to just come out and say that because they realize what it sounds like. It sounds like "These people are better off dead." And they're right; it sounds every bit as bad as they think it does. If I may be permitted to indulge in an emotional argument myself here, where does anyone get off claiming they know what is best for another person? Isn't that the whole point of the pro-choice movement? "You don't know what's best for me and you can't make my decisions for me!" But they think they should have that power? They believe that a person will not have a "good life" once they are born and they think they should be able to make the decision that the person is better off dead? Where does this self-righteous, narcissistic mindset stop?
It's ironic and amazing that those who claim to be championing freedom and choice think they should be able to hold the ultimate power over others.

I have read the following blog entries [1] http://joeyh.name/blog/entry/upstream_git_repositories/ [2] http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/journal/2013-04/001.html [3] http://thomas.goirand.fr/blog/?p=94 I personally would like to follow Russ[2] most closely because I consider tarballs definitely as relevant for reasons that are somehow not mentioned in the blog entries: 1. Not all Git repositories enable proper watch files (I know GitHub does but there are others out there that don't) 2. Uscan does not support extraction from VCS repositories (even if this is a shame and should be fixed fow Wheezy+1 either in uscan or a to be developed tool say vcsscan) 3. It is hard to get a MD5sum identical upstream tarball if you do not use pristine-tar and MD5sum identical tarballs are quite an important thing for teams or sponsor/sponsees I can not see how Joey[1] and Daniel[3] would solve these problem when they are not interested in upstream tarball releases any more. Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de

The BVRLA's 2018 Industry Outlook Report predicts another year of steady growth for the van leasing and rental sector, although many of its members believe that any sudden shift in the economy could cause them to rip-up their forecasts.
Highlights from the commercial vehicle section of the report include:
- The CV market will continue to polarize between firms working with HGVs and those specialising in vans.
- There are growing concerns about the risk profile of a new generation of self-employed, 'gig economy' van drivers.
- The rising use of safety technology and participation in industry-led best practice schemes will avert any need for regulation of the LCV market.
As with 2017, the report expects demand to come from a number of channels: "A new generation of smaller business customers are being lured by the cash-flow and risk management benefits of contract hire or finance leases. Many of these are sole traders undertaking home deliveries, a trend that many BVRLA members are concerned about from a credit and operational risk perspective." Another growth area will be operators choosing to replace their non-core HGV fleet with vans, to reduce driver costs and the administrative burden.
BVRLA members are divided on whether and how the van sector could be regulated, but most feel it is unlikely to happen next year. They point to the "growing membership of self-regulatory industry best-practice bodies, including the Freight Operator Recognition Scheme and Van Excellence, and to the increasing uptake of third-party safety technology, in the form of dash-cams and smartphone telematics."
Finally, the outlook for HGV rental and leasing appears less clear: "The sector is undoubtedly well placed to provide an affordable and flexible low-emission Euro VI solution to hauliers concerned about urban Clean Air Zones, but Brexit-related economic and trade uncertainty could dampen demand."
