Disclaimer: Posting stuff like this makes us feel about as dirty as posting that other thing, but in a completely different way. Yes, this is gossipy tabloid bullshit not worthy of the ePaper it's ePrinted on — but you can't look me in the eye and say you're no longer interested in Gina Carano, her rumored love life, or how she looks when she's dolled up for a night on the town. If you weren't, you wouldn't be reading this right now. Search your heart. You know it to be true. Here's UsMagazine with the story:
Gina Carano had a hunk on her arm at the 18th Annual Critics' Choice Movie Awards in Santa Monica, Calif., Jan. 10. The 30-year-old actress, who was nominated for Best Actress in an Action Movie for Hawyire, walked down the red carpet with Man of Steel's leading man, Henry Cavill, 29. Carano (in Roland Mouret) and Cavill (in Tom Ford) stayed by each other's side throughout the evening.
According to Just Jared, the two have been spotted together multiple times within the past few months. E! News reports the former MMA fighter and the Immortals actor began dating in September 2012…Carano is rumored to be making a surprise appearance as Wonder Woman in Cavill's new film, Man of Steel. The movie hits theaters on June 14, 2013.
As we previously reported, Gina Carano will also be appearing in the upcoming Fast & Furious 6, and might be in that Lady Expendables thing.

Fake a Full Night's Sleep with These New Super-Concealers
Anti-aging makeup? Sign us up! These new BFFs brighten eyes instantly and provide long-term skin care benefits
Your new warm-weather concealer The cult skin care brand Eve Lom recently launched a line of makeup products infused with anti-aging ingredients. The Cover Concealer, $40, is a lightweight, non-greasy concealer fortified with sea fennel, which stimulates cellular renewal, and an antioxidant-rich complex that locks in moisture and helps block free radicals. Plus, it has SPF 15 -- super important because sun damage is the thing that will age you at warp speed. I'll freely admit that I was pretty skeptical about putting SPF near my eyes. If you're similarly having flashbacks to waterproof sunscreen stinging your eyes after a dunk in the pool, you needn't worry. This gentle SPF protects under-eyes from UVA and UVB damage without any pain, and it won't budge for hours.

SEE NEXT PAGE: For those days when you look like an extra on "The Walking Dead"
Let's face it: Despite our best intentions, getting a solid night's sleep just doesn't happen all the time. Whether it's a work deadline or a "House of Cards" binge-watching spree that's robbing you of Zzz's, the result is still the same: puffy, tired-looking eyes. When you're already sleepwalking through your morning routine, the last thing you want to deal with is a complicated camouflaging strategy. Slathering on eye cream and a concealer? That's just way too much work. Which is why we're obsessed with the latest crop of concealers. Instead of merely hiding the problem, they contain skin care ingredients that help reduce dark circles, fine lines and wrinkles in the long run, while instantly brightening, de-puffing and covering dark circles (so you don't have to wait for the long-term results to kick in). So leave the raccoon eyes to, well, the raccoons and start fighting dark circles and fine lines as you cover them up.

Beowulf: Unrated Director's Cut (US - BD)
Gabe Powers takes a second look at the occasionally naked monster killer...
Based on the epic poem, Beowulf follows the adventures of the title character (portrayed by Ray Winstone) who comes to King Hrothgar's (Anthony Hopkins) Danish village to kill the tyrant demon Grendel (Crispin Glover). After the braggart Beowulf makes good on his promise he is dispatched to murder Grendel's evil mother (Angelina Jolie), but the malevolent she-demon has other plans for the arrogant hero.
Every time someone's attempted to deliver a fully successful adaptation of the ancient epic 'Beowulf' things have come up short. Either the adaptation is very loose, as in the case of John McTeirnan's 13th Warrior, or the adaptation entirely misses the point and lacks a suitable budget, as in the last two in name only, STV adaptations. Robert Zemeckis didn't strike me as the man for this particular job, but my craving for an adequate adaptation of the story forced me to give the guy a chance.
My distrust of Zemeckis has to do with my general lukewarm feeling towards his films, even the films everyone else loves like Forrest Gump and the Back to the Future series. Zemeckis' films are not bad films; they just don't do it for me.
The use of this new fangled motion capture technology is an interesting choice, one that helps Zemeckis to avoid too many unfair comparisons stylistically to Peter Jackson's action/fantasy defining trilogy. Zemeckis utilizes the technical advantages of having no camera or crew to worry about more effectively here then he did in his last mo-cap feature, the tepid The Polar Express. He squeezes the virtual camera through impossibly small crevasses, swoops across a several mile long valleys in seconds, and focuses on pin sharp reflections without worry of catching the crew in the shot. The human characters still look uncanny—their lips never seem to sync appropriately, and their limbs move too smoothly—but these oddities are quickly assimilated once the story gets rolling. Besides, how else could portly Ray Winstone star as a 6'5" Adonis with nearly supernatural rippling muscles?
The comparisons to the other super-manly and semi-animated feature of 2007, Zach Snyder's 300, are fair enough. Most folks will probably prefer the splattering red ink and simplistic black and white of Spartan swashbuckling, but the repetition and terrible narration got the better of me upon a second viewing. Beowulf wasn't as much fun on video where the wackiness of three dimensions is lost, but story, performances, and action doesn't lose too much bite. Though obviously a visually arresting feature, the film will likely find lasting success in its sense of humour and its genuinely frightening moments. Zemeckis' use of (fantasy illustrator) Frank Frazetta inspired imagery and comparisons between motion capture and rotoscoping technologies has led me to a more satisfying filmic comparison—producer Ralph Bakshi's 1983 animated film Fire and Ice.
The film's suspenseful elements shouldn't be a surprise to Zemeckis fans, but the sheer volume of graphic and horrific violence is something novel in his repertoire. I have no idea how Beowulf managed to get a PG-13 rating for its theatrical release, as it was easily one of the flat out goriest movies I saw all of 2007. I didn't catch any major difference in the levels of violence between this 'director's cut' and the theatrical cut—both were as violent as all hell, much to my delight. The visual humour is a less impressive step for Zemeckis—the man that brought us the real life cartoons of Roger Rabbit—but keeping his tongue in his cheek is an effective way to deal with what is ultimately a very silly story. The joke is taken a bit too far during the attack on Grendel, where increasingly ridiculous objects obscure our hero's crotch. Come on guys, either put the guy in some underwear, or show us his bee-wolf wang and take the R-rating.
The less cartoony humour is likely attributed to co-writers Neil Gaiman and Roger Avery. Gaiman, whose work was also the basis for one of the most overlooked features of 2007, Stardust, is known for his whimsical takes on dark fantasy material. Avery's work with Tarantino on Pulp Fiction, along with his solo work on Killing Zoë and Rules of Attraction, have all exhibited a brutal and dark sense of humour. The team cleverly deals with the original story's two and a half act structure by dealing with its characters' one dimensional nature. By making the character a braggart and a failure on a moral level a (kind of) new third act is created which more or less follows the same themes, and which leads us into the film's most spectacular set pieces.
And that's the film's most obvious problem, though there are some emotionally effective and genuinely funny moments, the whole thing comes down to a series of increasingly exciting action set pieces. Critics have rightfully made comparisons between the eerily computer animated film and video games. Anyone who's played a videogame in the last dozen or so years will recognize the cut scene to boss battle rhythm, but is this a valid criticism, or is Beowulf a valid comment on modern videogame entertainment? I'm not sure, but as technology and audience sophistication continues to grow I can't help but assume that his is the future of popular cinema, whether we like it or not.
* I noticed no difference between the HD DVD and Blu-ray releases. This section pertains to both.
Well, I'm not sure what most of you were expecting from a high definition release of an entirely digital film, but I was expecting perfection. It's nice to have one's expectations met. Beowulf pushes my aging television's specs to their limit. The disc's clarity is so severe that it causes injury to the film. The already eerily crafted characters appear almost plasticine. The textures of the creatures, on the other hand, are done great justice. The film's colour pallet is purposefully pretty limited per scene to either warm and shiny golds or glowing baby blues. Both pallets are bright and noiseless, and punch well when accentuated with blood reds. There isn't anything I can complain about here other then the fact that my television can't get any brighter and that one dead pixel looks larger than ever now.
All of my problems with the compressed volume levels of the HD DVD's Dolby Digital Plus track are magically erased by the Blu-ray's choice of a Dolby TrueHD track. This is the ear splittingly aggressive surround track I heard when I saw the film in theatres last Thanksgiving. The centre channel is still a bit overbearing, but all in all the mix is noticeably wider in scope, and the decreased compression allows for sharper and better separated elements. Alan Silvestri's score (which is impressive and very 'Alan Silvestrian') gets its bump, and now blends well with the bombastic action. A definitive improvement.
I'm still unable to view any of the web-enabled extras on the first disc of this two-disc set, and the 'In the Volume' picture in picture option is not an option on this particular Blu-ray player. I can still review it, assuming it's the same feature that graced the more interactively-abled HD DVD. There isn't any interview footage or commentary in the tiny screen, just a bunch of behind the scenes footage and rough animatic animation. Those that enjoyed watching the 300 green screen footage will likely have even more fun watching big movie stars wearing unflattering, skin tight scuba gear with grey dots all over their faces.
The rest of the extras match the HD DVD.
High definition disc number two begins with 'A Hero's Journey', a look at the 'filming' of this state of the art motion picture. The volume of work that went into this project is pretty mind boggling in technical terms, but when compared to the physical effort and manpower that goes into something like Lord of the Rings one can easily understand Zemeckis likes making special effects blockbusters this way. The first shock is how quickly the filming process is. Camera set-ups are reduced to mere minutes of sensor calibration, and set construction is timed to fifteen minutes or less. Zemeckis is able to get more than double the average amount of takes for a sizably budgeted feature. The featurette is amusing and informative, but runs under thirty minutes, which doesn't quite cut it in this information age. Okay, not really.
The featurette adds a special trivia mode which includes on-screen pop-up factoids and links to the disc's additional featurettes. The pop-up facts come hard and fast, so if you're trying to keep track of the featurette's dialogue and this additional text info it's a little overwhelming. The extra featurettes total ten, run about twenty-one minutes total, and can also be accessed via the main screen under 'The Journey Continues'. These are mostly brief, deeper looks into things touched on during 'A Hero's Journey'.
'Beasts of Burden' is a featurette covering the design of the film's monsters, Grendel, Grendel's mother, the sea monsters and the Dragon. I won't mince words here, Andy Sherkis' Gollum is the best motion captured performance ever, and probably will be for a long time, but hiring Crispin Glover to play the tortured monster Grendel verges on genius on Zemeckis' part. The physical manifestation of the creature is fantastically original and disgustingly realized. There is a touch of that Gollum patheticness, but overall the Old English spouting character is one of the film's strongest and most memorable elements. Grendel's Mother is something I'm not so fond of (I just don't get the liquid gold thing), but it's another memorable and original element, and is in keeping with Zemeckis' Frank Frazetta inspired visuals. Though very informative to the process and such, the featurette is a bit of a disappointment at only seven minutes, though it ends up being one of the longest extras on the disc.
Another group of featurettes starts with 'The Origins of Beowulf', which is another super short featurette that should've been longer. In about five minutes Roger Avery and Neil Gaiman run down their changes to the original story, and Zemeckis explains how he was brought onto the project. As a little aside, I'm not a very big fan of Gaiman's work on the whole, but I've got to say that I'd love to just sit and talk with the guy someday, he strikes me as unbelievably warm and good natured. 'Creating the Ultimate Beowulf' is one of the only places on the disc where the huge schism between actor Ray Winstone and the physical representation of Beowulf. Besides this it doesn't do much, at a minute and a half. It probably won't surprise anyone when I tell you that 'The Art of Beowulf' is about the art of Beowulf. This is more or less the only time that anyone mentions the fact that the film was originally meant to be seen in 3D, and otherwise covers some of the concept art and model work. It runs about five minutes.
'A Conversation with Robert Zemeckis' is an interview session as posed by USC students. This is the closest we get to a director's commentary track. The questions are super soft balls in the sense that they're obvious, but the answers are spot on. Zemeckis will likely be called all manner of bad names by various industry big wigs for his love of this approach to filmmaking, but I'm very impressed with his willingness to risk failure through experimentation. I'm looking forward to more of these from him (might I suggest an adaptation of Jeff Smith's 'Bone' comic series?). The talking head nature of the interview is visually dull (maybe it should've been spiced up with some behind the scenes or film footage), and runs about ten minutes.
The disc also houses nine deleted scenes and two alternate scenes. These are presented in rough digital pre-viz form, with very little detail, almost no sound effects, a temp score and what appears to be finished dialogue performances, with a few minor exceptions. One can't blame the filmmakers for cutting these scenes at such an early stage considering the cost of finishing them. The cuts are all appropriate for the films pacing, but none of them would've been wildly inappropriate if left in either (including yet another penis joke). The scenes run a whopping thirteen minutes.
Beowulf probably isn't your High School English teacher's idea of classic literary entertainment, but it's hard to deny the visceral effect. The technology hasn't made it to an entirely acceptable level just yet, but overrated filmmaker Robert Zemeckis shows successful growth in the format, and range as a director. It's forgettable and weak in sections, but a thrill for those in the right state of mind. The Blu-ray disc isn't a visual improvement on the HD DVD, and the extras are the same (though some of them probably won't work for everyone), but The Dolby TrueHD track is a pretty big improvement. My 7/10 film rating is a bit of a lie, I'd probably put it somewhere around 6.5/10 if I could.

BOSTON — Originally summoned from Providence (AHL) today to be an extra forward for the Boston Bruins' upcoming road trip to St. Louis and New Jersey, center Martin St. Pierre now might find himself in the starting line-up when the Bruins visit the Blues Sunday.
An injury to Patrice Bergeron could keep the Bruins alternate captain on the sidelines and open a spot for St. Pierre, who was leading Providence in scoring with 35 points before making the jaunt up I-95. St. Pierre has 21 NHL games under his belt — not to mention the experience he's gained during numerous NHL training camps — so he shouldn't be too nervous if he's called upon to pull on a black and gold sweater for the first time in the regular season.
"Being up and down the last few years with the Blackhawks organization, obviously it was a fresh start getting traded here this past summer. But I had a good camp, I thought, and obviously they have a lot of great players here and everybody's playing well," he said after the Bruins' 4-2 win over Carolina. "But I'd say this is my chance. And as far as being more comfortable, more experienced, the older guys tell you that when you're trying to get your feet wet, but it's actually true – I feel confident and I can't be nervous and just go day by day."
Bruins head coach Claude Julien had a feeling even during training camp that St. Pierre would come in handy during the regular season.
"I think we knew what we were getting when we traded for him and that was a depth player, a playmaking centerman, and who has got good skill," he said. "He is highly skilled. We kept him around as long as we could in training camp and gave him a chance to play with us and give him a chance to play in our system. We knew at some point we would be getting another look at him in the regular season."

If the deal goes through, the current B-Mets owners are expected to purchase the Class-A Batavia Muckdogs of the New York-Penn League, which is not affiliated with the Mets (the Brooklyn Cyclones are their New York-Penn League affiliate).
The Mets affiliation agreement with the Binghamton club expires after 2012 and, according to Adam Rubin of ESPN New York, their Double-A affiliate could be in New Britain, Connecticut beginning in 2013. The Mets have been affiliated with Binghamton since 1992.
However, B-Mets President Michael Urda told the Binghamton Press-Sun Bulletin:
"The Binghamton Mets have not been sold, and we have not been contacted by anyone interested in our club," Urda angrily said. "There's 12 teams in the Eastern League and we have to address it every single week ... Enough's enough."[line]
In September, 2006, the Mets announced their 38-year relationship with the Tidewater/Norfolk Tides had concluded, and that they had reached a two-year affiliation agreement with the New Orleans Zephyrs for their Triple-A team. After the conclusion of that agreement in 2009, the Mets signed a two-year agreement with Buffalo and became affiliated with the Buffalo Bisons. In 2010, that agreement was extended through the 2012 season.

I found some rough spots but, having had a very successful install and seeing what Red Hat has done in this new version, I can state that, if they wanted to, Red Hat could, with a few tweaks, blow away every Joe User Linux distribution. For me, that is saying something as I have been a champion of distributions such as Lycoris and have also seen the improvements in Lindows 2.0. I'm writing this as sort of an offshoot of Eugenia's overall review of Red Hat 8. Here, I'm attempting to view it from Joe & Jane User's point of view. I'll try to avoid repetition of Eugenia's review, except where it is unavoidable and important.
Those of us who read and post here at OSNews have become somewhat tired of reviews where the reviewer focuses almost exclusively on installation rather than usability. I will try to make the installation description as short as I can. However, from Joe and Jane's point of view, there are areas in installation that could confuse them, so I have to speak to those, at least to some degree. My computer for this "experiment" is, yes, a Wal-Mart/Microtel PC with an Athalon 1800+ XP processor, 1 GB of DDR RAM, a 17" Phillips monitor and my old HP LaserJet L5 printer. This computer comes with a VIA motherboard. Joe & Jane would probably not have made changes as I have, but I did find that this would not have made any real difference. My changes: an Ensoniq 5880 AudioPCI sound card and a 64 MB Raedon 7500 graphics card.
I should also say I'm on a home LAN with cable modem, router and DHCP. That is not exactly Joe & Jane User, but many new and average users have been going to the various forms of broadband available now. Also, Red Hat 8 has an Internet Connection Wizard, much as you would see on Windows and Macs.
Red Hat 8 Personal Edition comes with three Install CD's, one Applications CD, two Source CD's and an excellent Documentation CD. Trying to do things as Joe and Jane might do them, I looked over the one included manual pretty carefully. I had to try and remember what it was like to know almost nothing and read a manual like this. For any of us, it is an excellent manual - clear and concise regarding various ways of partitioning, describing the installation process and troubleshooting. I think Joe & Jane's eyes might glaze over but, in reality, it is very clear, it just doesn't speak Joe and Jane's language. If Red Hat decided to make a distro especially for new/average users, they could easily take the information in this manual and make it more palpable for Joe and Jane. Objectively speaking though, it is an excellent manual.
So, I booted up from Install Disk One and, for me, the entire install was flawless. Red Hat's Anaconda installer was outstanding and detected all of my hardware, even to the point of detecting both my AudioPCI sound card and the VIA built in sound. To my Joe & Jane delight, it gave me the option of a Personal Desktop install, Workstation install and Server install. Obviously, for my purpose, I chose the Personal Desktop. For Joe & Jane, here are the possible problem areas I found:
1) After the type of install one chooses, the user is presented with choices for what level of security is desired. This is an excellent feature and, if you are reading the manual and looking at the "Details" feature of each level, it is very clear and understandable. In Joe & Jane's case though, I believe they could easily become confused. The reason for this is that, in the descriptions, an average user could easily become confused due to the fact that they may think some of the options are intended for simple usage. For example, one is presented with whether or not one wants ftp, http, etc. to be blocked or let through the firewall. I know that what is being asked is referring to server use, not regular user usage. But, I don't think Joe & Jane would catch this or understand it and may end up compromising their firewall, thinking they must leave everything open if they want to receive email and surf the net. Again, this is something Red Hat could easily fix.
2) It is the end of the installation where real confusion comes into play. Joe & Jane have already set up the root password and user account. But now, at the end, a user login and password are to be created in order to use the Red Hat Network. Then, having done that, they want you to create a name for their Red Hat Network Profile. Then, you choose a "Channel". Well, you only are given one choice, so it's easy to do, but I was having trouble understanding what this was. I did realize the Channel indicates to the Redhat Network what version you're using (Personal Edition, in my case). Knowing that, it then knows how to update your system. At this point, you click to update the system. Because the distribution was just released, there were no updates yet. Well, the upshot of all this is that, for Joe & Jane, the end of the installation could easily throw them into total confusion. Again, a company like Red Hat can easily make what's going on during this part of the installation much easier to understand for an average user.
As a side note to this, Eugenia and several posters discussed the Red Hat Network and whether you pay for it or if it's free and whether or not it's just for server people, etc. As a couple of posters said, I too have had no problems logging into the Network with my user name and password. There are no updates yet, but I get right in. I'm still confused about this whole aspect of the distro (I should mention again, this is a boxed version I paid for). For Joe & Jane, I don't know how this affects them because I'm still unclear if they have to pay for this or if there are different tiers of pay and non pay. Could the "Channel" I spoke of also indicate that, this being the Personal Edition I purchased, I don't have to pay? I am not sure right now. Even after visiting the Channel page at Red Hat's website, I'm still not sure.

Wow! Even though Japan is not a Christian country. They do try to write down Bible verses as accurately as possible. and no, I didn't read the whole bible to find that phrase. I read the whole entire chapter to Revelations back when I was 20 or 21 years old. I'm 22, now. and I also read the whole chapter to Revelations back when I was a teenager. So, when he said,"And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star falling from Heaven into the Earth." I KNEW. I just KNEW that it came from Revelations. After all, I've studied the Bible for years.
So, yeah. Starting at 6:33, you could hear Chapter 9 of Revelations to stops at verse 3. Then verse 11. So, for all of those of you who were curious. Now, you know (o^w^o)
Nothing Like Anybody
Everyones thoughts about Yukio being the perfect vessel for Satan were true!! Which I didnt want to happen....:/ well, it looks like shura is about to fight him and yukio might have a part too...I just hope Yukio doesnt die and that satan somehow cant use his body grrr.
Anime is awesome....enough said.
I don't want Yukio to die, either. I hope that they manage to Exorcise Satan OUT of Yukio leaving him alive. Like there should be a way for Satan to leave Yukio's body without Yukio dying. Like, I don't know, summon Arch Angel Michael and ask him to force Satan out of Yukio's body.
haha. This show is NOT for the super-religious. But it's important for people to remember that Japan is NOT a Christian culture. I THINK that the religion in Japan is Buddhism. and in Buddhism, Satan doesn't exist. They have a different feeling towards demons than we do. Like there are TWO words for demon in Japan. One is oni, and the other is akuma. I wonder if there is supposed to be a difference?
And you see a lot of good demons in the Japan culture: Inuyasha, Hiei, Kurama, Elsei, etc. So, it's important for people to remember that their culture is different from ours and to not get offended.
Nothing Like Anybody
Riiight yeah. I mean the show is about Exorcism so of course they are gonna have christian religious stuff. Oooooh I hope he keeps his powers but I just dont want satan in him!! And yeah whatever tht guys name is who is fighting shura needs to team up with her and i think rin is going to fight too. Next episode is gonna be probably suspenseful, crazy and amazing!!
Anime is awesome....enough said.
I agree this is gonna be a crazy ass battle nxt week,I can't wait I'm so excited!.This show far exceeded my expectations by far.My favorite anime was Bleach but damn this show has become my new number 1 for real!!!!!.I hope Yukio lives and they somehow destroy Satan,cause when Rin woke up and saw his brother all demoned out I had goosebumps and a chill down my spine.If people aren't watching this show then they really don't know whats up......
Watching Garo,Ben-to,and Maoyu.
I agreee. it was kinda cool when rin finally saw tht yukio wasnt human....i was thinking like here's your competition rin! now fight!!
Anime is awesome....enough said.
Oh yea and yukio like overshadowed all the reveals of this episode. the hamster on mephisto? amaimon's voice!! he's alive!! and that takara guy who holds the puppet finally speaks and doesnt have his puppet on his hands!!
Anime is awesome....enough said.

Has anybody here tried to read Epictetus? Is it just me or is this greek extremely difficult? (I thought he would be a piece of cake because I'm very familiar with him in translation and I read that his greek usage was similar to biblical greek).
Anyway,heres my actual question.
Epictetus Discourses 1:1
[face=SPIonic]*tw=n a)/llwn duna/mewn ou)demi/an eu(rh/sete au)th\n au(th=s qewrhtikh/n, ou) toi/nun ou)de\ dokimastikh\n h)\ a)podokimastikh/n. [/face]
Here is my best guess:
You will find not one of the other powers itself (is?) capable of beholding (herself?), not for scrutiny nor rejecting.
I'm defininitely getting thrown off by the 'autnv autns' part.
What does 'autns' mean here? does 'autnv' go with 'oudemiav'?

Out on Veterans Day: Some officials took the timeEDITORIAL
November 17. 2012 11:35PM
We went to Manchester's parade on Veterans Day and were impressed by several things. The healthy turnout of citizens was a positive, as was the presence, as is typical, of Mayor Ted Gatsas and School Superintendent Dr. Tom Brennan.
The veterans who participated, either as spectators or marchers, must have appreciated the spontaneous applause from the crowd. It broke out, where we stood, every few minutes and was heartwarming.
The veterans, no doubt, also appreciated the marching along of Mayor Gatsas and Dr. Brennan. Their attendance made all the more obvious the absence of other city and area politicians. If there was a single alderman or school board member in the line of march, we missed them.
In Nashua that evening, the public turned out strong for a fundraising show to benefit the Veterans Count program.
Credit Nashua Mayor Donnalee Lozeau, U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte and U.S. Rep. Charlie Bass for representing their constituencies.
It was particularly telling that Charlie Bass, having just lost his seat in Congress, was there to take a seat and support the veterans.
And credit Nashua civic spark plugs Sy Mahfuz and Tom Tessier for starting from scratch an event that promises to be a Veterans Day hallmark for years to come.

Hurleys of Coolnagarrane, version 2.0
I have updated my information on the Coolnagarrane Hurleys. I am waiting for some info from the UK to correct an error in the Tomalin branch; other than that this is the best I can do.
I cannot conclusively prove some of these relationships, and will have to rely on people "in the know" to fill me in.
I think my ggg-grandfather Michael Hurley had a brother Daniel, who married Honora McCarthy in 1850. As far as I can tell, Norry was a McCarthy Sowny from Drominidy. (Their son Daniel married a Julia McCarthy in 1894; she was also a McCarthy-Sowny, and also from Drominidy.)
I think Michael and Daniel had a younger sister Ellen, whose baptism record made it online (1815). (The Hurley records are all in Skibbereen Creagh & Sullon.) Her parents are recorded as John Hurley and Jane McCarthy, no residence given.
I think this Ellen married a John Sweeny in 1846. Michael Hurley and Daniel Hurley were witnesses. I think the Sweeny family lived at various times in Tooreennasillane, Kilnaclasha, and Lakelands.
The parents - John Hurley and Jane McCarthy, show up on the baptism record for a Randal Hurley in Coolnagarrane, 1814, parents James Hurley and Mary Leonard (Linnane). Did this John have a brother James?
Trawling through the online records, I found all these children for James Hurley and Mary Leonard:
Randal in Coolnagarrane 1814
Denis in Coolnagarrane 1816
James on Chapel Lane 1819
Michael on Chapel Lane 1825
There is a John Hurley in Coolnagarrane in the Abbeystrowry Tithe Applotment (1835); there are a Patrick, John, and James Hurley in the Creagh TA (1832) in "Skibbereen town and gardens".
I think I once read that a Dan in the Daniel Hurley branch eventually moved up to Bandon. That may well have been the end of this tribe of Hurleys in Coolnagarrane. I have been in touch with Hurleys living there now, but they are not related.
I am dying to know where the old Coolnagarrane Hurleys originally came from. I realize Ballinacarriga is the Hurley seat in southwest Cork, but how did the southwest Cork Hurleys spread out from there...? The other Hurleys on my Grandmom's side, through the Mahonys, are almost a total blank, other than the names of some Hurley baptism sponsors for the Mahony children.

Some unsung Cork heroes of Irish Independence
Most Irish family researchers and historians are aware of General Michael Collins and his predecessor, Jeremiah O'Donovan Rossa. Considerable chatter has been devoted to these two towering figures of history on forums pertaining to Ireland.
Today I thought I'd post about two individuals geographically closer to my mother's ancestral origins, and therefore somewhat dearer to me as I practically consider them neighbors.
Sean Hurley
Since I have two Hurley lines and know absolutely nothing about one and only a little about the other, Sean Hurley sparked my curiosity. According to the Southern Star, Sean Hurley, born July 3, 1887, in Maulagow, Leap, was the only Corkman who died in or was executed for his participation in the 1916 Easter Rising. In literature about Michael Collins you'll see Sean's name. Sean's sister Kate was Michael's sister-in-law; she was the first wife of Michael's oldest brother Johnny Collins. However, Sean and Michael were friends before that.
Some literature says that Sean Hurley was Michael's cousin. Other than this well-documented relationship by marriage I have not seen anything specifying this blood relationship.
Sean's father was John Daniel Hurley, whom the Southern Star says was "of Ballinacarriga stock." Well, that doesn't really tell me much because Hurleys in southwest Cork pretty much all originated from Ballinacarriga, the Hurley seat. From my still meager understanding of Hurley history, apparently there was territory divided up between Hurleys and McCarthys in the Drinagh area way back when.
Working backwards, I found the family in the censuses. Maulagow is in the Drinagh District Electoral Division. In the 1911 census I found 69 year old John, 63 year old Kate, and 32 year old son Patrick. John and Kate were married 40 years.
The 1901 census lists John at 50, Kate at 45, Pat 21, John (that would be Sean) 14, Kattie 18, and Mollie 16.
I then looked for the marriage. John Daniel Hurley married Catherine Walsh of Maulatrahane 13-Feb-1872, in the R.C. Parish of Kilmacabea. However, as far as I can tell, the children were baptized in Drimoleague & Drinagh R.C. Parish:
Daniel 1872, William 1874, Ellen 1875, Patrick 1878, and Catherine 1881 were the only siblings of Sean that I could find.
Unfortunately, the ages listed in the census for Sean Hurley's parents slide around. Hurley is all over the place, but Walsh is not quite as common, so I thought I'd try looking for Kate Walsh's family records. Her parents may have been William Walsh and Kate Donovan of Maulatrahane. The children I found were John 1835, Patrick 1837, William 1838, Mary 1839, Thomas 1841, Garrett 1844 (I have seen this name in conjunction with Walsh frequently), James 1846, Catherine 1848, and Ellen 1851.
(Note: I have NOT examined all these records.)
Some day when there is ample time I may take a crack at looking for John Hurley.
Gearóid O'Sullivan
The other unsung Cork hero whom I yearn to know more was born as Jeremiah, in Coolnagarrane on January 28, 1891 (which I haven't verified), to Michael O'Sullivan and Margaret McCarthy. Gearóid O'Sullivan hoisted the tri-color flag during the Easter Rising and was the Quarter-Master General of the Free State.
I have the marriage record of the parents. Michael and Margaret were married January 6, 1883 in Skibbereen. Michael O'Sullivan was from Lough Hyne; his father Daniel was deceased. Margaret was from Coolnagarrane, and her father Owen McCarthy was also deceased.
According to online sources Margaret was born in Coolnagarrane. I don't know if that is factually correct; the marriage record stating a residence is not proof that one was born in the same place. Michael went to Coolnagarrane to the McCarthy holding. My Hurley ancestors were from Coolnagarrane, and they may have had McCarthy ancestors, which is why this O'Sullivan family is dear to my heart.
I took a look at the census records. The O'Sullivans were indeed ardent nationalists; their 1911 census return is filled out in Irish. Notice that Gearóid is not listed; he was likely away occupied with his studies. The record says Margaret was 54, which would place her birth year at about 1857.
The 1901 census lists Margaret as 40. That would put her year of birth around 1861.
I have been unable to verify I have identified the correct Margaret McCarthy. After trawling through the online church records, looking for Margarets with fathers named Owen (or Eugene, an alternate name), I came up with at least two families, maybe more.
The family of a Eugene McCarthy and Mary Walsh as far as I can tell lived in Skibbereen. Some of the records for the children list Mill Road, which doesn't particularly bother me, as that is of close proximity to Coolnagarrane. The marriage, if I managed to grab the correct one, was in Skibbereen & Rath, January 28, 1845, and included a Richard Walsh as witness. The children were Catherine 1845, Honora 1847 (Norry McCarthy as sponsor), Helena 1849 (Pat Hurley and Mary Walsh as sponsors), Eugene 1851 (Thomas Walsh sponsor), Timothy 1855 (Mary Hurley sponsor), Mary of Mill Road 1857(Richard Walsh sponsor), Bridget Ann of Mill Street 1860 (Mary Walsh sponsor), Margaret 1862 (Mary Hurley sponsor), and James (Honora Walsh sponsor).
The other Margaret I found was baptized September 4, 1857, the daughter of Eugene McCarthy and Mary Carthy. The residence listed is Russagh, well on the south side of Skibbereen. Jerry Carthy was a sponsor. There are records for an Owen (Mc)Carthy and a Mary (Mc)Carthy going back to 1838, and I am uncertain if they are for the same or for different families. Joanna 1838, Eugene 1842, Timothy 1844, John 1848, Owen 1850, John of North Street 1853, Margaret of Russagh (south of Skibbereen) 1857.
(Note: I have NOT examined all these records.)
So I am a bit stuck there. I have no further information other than a funeral notice for Margaret McCarthy O'Sullivan from the Southern Star, 20-May-1944.
I am fairly certain one of the descendants of Margaret McCarthy and Michael O'Sullivan, another Michael O'Sullivan, was my Grandmother's doctor.
A lady by the name of Joni Scanlon is a descendant, and has been writing a much-needed book on Gearóid O'Sullivan. I am impatiently waiting for it.
Update: For information on General Michael Collins please do not post a question or email me since I have no information other than what is publicly known. Use Google and/or search the Cork genealogy forums.

Your ability to tell a story with photos is excellent! Very inspiring work.ReplyDelete
Oh Lordy! I can't let my two 7 year olds listen to "Last Friday Night" until the Kidsbop version comes out. Far too many parts of that song I'm just not ready to explain!ReplyDelete

Wahou, that's been a while I look at your pictures on flickr and I just saw that you had a blog.ReplyDelete
Your work is really great and IU wish I could take so cool pictures of my daughter.
I have a question on pictures like the 3 first of this serie...how do you manage to have such a light? Is it only thanks to flashes and so on or also because you choose to overexpose your picture?
i LOVE your photos! what a great site!!ReplyDelete

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — A Mississippi River bridge where a shipping barge accident took place Sunday is difficult to navigate because it's near a bend in the river at Vicksburg, bridge superintendent Herman Smith said Monday.
The railroad bridge averages 1.5 accidents per year, Smith said. It's the older of two bridges spanning the Mississippi River at Vicksburg. The newer span carries Interstate 20 traffic between Mississippi and Louisiana.
About 30 barges broke free from a string under tow Sunday morning. Some struck the railroad bridge, and one barge carrying petroleum coke sank, according to the Coast Guard.
Petroleum coke is a byproduct of the oil refinement process. Coast Guard Lt. Ryan Gomez said the barge that sank contained more than 2,000 tons of petroleum coke.
Gomez said the barge will be salvaged, but there is no estimate of when that will happen.
After the river was re-opened to traffic at about 9:30 a.m. CDT Monday, the Coast Guard began clearing hundreds of waiting barges.
The railroad bridge in Vicksburg has been the site of several barge accidents, including one on Jan. 27, when a barge crashed into the bridge and leaked thousands of gallons of oil into the river.
The river at Vicksburg is at normal levels for this time of year, according to the Lower Mississippi River Forecast Center. Service Coordination Hydrologist Jeff Graschel said that because of heavy rains in Illinois and Missouri, there may be some minor flooding in coming weeks in Tunica, just south of Memphis, Tenn; and Natchez, which is south of Vicksburg.
The cause of Sunday's accident remains unclear. Gomez said weather conditions, operator error, and river conditions could have played a part.
"There are a whole lot of variables," Gomez said. "Sometimes it's just one factor, sometimes it's all of them together."

Miley Cyrus Is Obsessed With Which One Direction Singer?
Miley Cyrus may be off the market and happily engaged to 'Hunger Games' actor and Aussie hunk Liam Hemsworth, but that doesn't stop her from obsessing about one of the members of One Direction. Which one does Miley dig? Well, we'll give you a hint: It's not Harry Styles!
Turns out Miss Miley admits to cyberstalking the one and only Zayn Malik. She revealed via a tweet, on which she included the band, that when she has sleepovers with her gay friends, she stalks Malik online. Since there is tons of 1D-related content for her to comb through, it was likely quite the productive stalking sesh with her pals. She's Miley Cyrus, Directioner, with a specialty in Zayn Malik!
Below is Cyrus's revelatory tweet about her online habits pertaining to 1D.
Does Hemsworth have anything to be concerned about? Nah! Neither does Malik. It's likely a huge compliment that an American megastar like Miley Cyrus and her gay pals like to look him up online.
Oh, the perils of fame. Don't you wish you had that problem?
Check out Miley's"I Stalk Zayn" tweet below. We wonder if Harry or Niall Horan or Louis Tomlinson or Liam Payne are jeal that Malik won the affections of Cyrus and friends. Probably not, since Taylor Swift was reportedly crushing on Harry and Demi Lovato supposedly dug Niall.
Feel like I'm hangin with a 13 year old girl when I have sleepovers with gays! Weve spent an hour stalking Zayn from @onedirection

- It's a lot easier to find coupons for unadvertised deals. It's just a lot easier to find coupons, period.
- Once you have it all organized, it's very easy to put your coupons in each week. Although I do spend more time trimming them all neatly so they fit in the slots, the whole process only takes me about 30-45 minutes each week, which isn't bad considering all the coupons I have!
- It's so very easy to see when coupons have expired and to pull them out. That is a huge plus!
- It's a gazillion times easier to shop with my kids now. Outings are less stressful. I am a happier mom while shopping with my kids, which just makes life better. My coupons sit safe and secure either in the cart or on the top of the car cart and I flip through them as needed. As I decide to use coupons, I transfer them to the front 4×6 page so I can easily hand them all to the checker.
- I can more easily carry all the different items I need while shopping. My calculator, scissors and pens all are in the pouch in front. I don't have to clip every coupon in every coupon booklet if I don't want to- I just file it in the accordion file on the front and I have it in case I need it. I can also easily carry around individual store coupon policies. It's nice to have all those items so accessible!
- It took me several hours (about 10!) to transfer my coupons over. It was a horribly tedious, boring job that I never want to do again.
- Not all coupons fit in those little slots. I have to fold many, including all printable coupons. That makes it hard to see all the details of the coupon- description and expiration date, at a glance.
- Most coupons do fit, but you have to trim them really well. I spend a little more time carefully cutting each coupon I want in my binder.
- I shopped around to find a good price on the materials needed and I still paid $27! In addition, the baseball card sheets are flimsy and I can see myself having to replace sheets continually.
- Visually, the sheets are busy. I've seen some that are all neat and clean and all coupons are the same size- mine isn't like that. I just have so many coupons of so many shapes and sizes, the one-size-fits-all look just isn't happening. It took me a couple weeks to get used to that. A friend of mine put a solid colored sheet behind each category and while that helps a ton, I just don't have the space for them.
My recommendations:
- Make your own categories. Know that every person's categories are going to be different! This is just what works for me. With any category system there will be some overlap. (Coupons that can logically go in more than 1 category.) I developed these categories after taking into consideration the items that I use coupons on. Everyone should do the same!
- Get good dividers. The first ones I got were clear and super cute but didn't stick out enough on the side for me to see them. Seeing them is important! The ones I use are plastic and have pockets on each side- also very handy!
- Even though it's less aesthetically pleasing, I like having 2 sizes of pages available. I use the 4×6 pages for tearpad coupons, coupons from packaging, insert coupons that are just gigantic, as well as many printables.
- Zippered binders are a necessity. I've seen my coupons shift around as I've turned my binder. If they weren't all enclosed, I'd be very worried about making sure I was carrying it upright all the time.
- Get a binder with a removable shoulder strap as well as a handle. It's nice to be able to be hands-free when I am carrying my baby!
Overall, I'm pleased with my choice to switch. Even though I have just as many disadvantages listed as I do advantages, the positive points are more important to me. Each method I've used has had its disadvantages. I think we all just have to consider what stage in life we're at and analyze what is most important to us. This will be a great method for me right now. Although it was a hassle to switch over, I'm glad I finally took the plunge!How do you all organize your coupons? I welcome any tips or tricks you all who have been using the binder method for a while. Please share!

I have more details about the Drama Membership!
We're hoping to launch on Monday or Tuesday if things go smoothly, with some special promotions, too. We'll be releasing a bunch of new episodes, as well as a link to where you can sign up :)
Over the past few weeks we've been preparing 1000s of episodes for over 100 new Korean drama titles from SBS and MBC. There's no drama simulcast program yet, but we have popular titles like Beethoven Virus, On Air, My Lovely Sam Soon, Iljimae, City Hall and more! All are English-subtitled and available in 480P with no time windows for Premium Members. Free users will be able to only watch in standard quality with video ads and time windows.
The Crunchyroll Premium Membership comes in 3 flavors:
1. Anime Membership Anime Only (what everyone has right now) $6.95/mo, $19.95/3mo, $59.95/12mo.
2. Drama Membership Drama Only (no time windows, 480P enhanced definition, no ads) $6.95/mo, $19.95/3mo, $59.95/12mo.
3. All-Access Membership (Combo Anime + Drama Membership) $11.95/mo, $34.95/3mo, $99.95/12mo
We have two promotions right now, both ending at the end of the year:
Special Upgrade Offer for current Anime Members (it's pretty good!)
From now until the end of the year, existing Anime Members can upgrade to the All-Access Membership for an extra $2/month, $5/3months, or $10/12months. You'll get to keep this discounted price for life (or until you cancel)! That means instead of paying $11.95/month for All-Access, you'll only pay $8.95/month for life. Don't miss out on this since we probably won't be offering anything like it again :)
Locking in a low price for life is great, because we add more and more videos every single day, making your Membership more and more worth it =)
Paypal $20 Cashback Deal (Free Membership!)
Due to the Drama launch, we're extending our $20 Cashback offer! For any Premium Membership plan over $19.95, if you use Paypal you will get $20 cash back deposited in your account within 10 business days. So you'll be getting 3 months for free! (You can cancel any time from your Account Settings page)
Links to these promos as well as the membership sign up pages will be available when we launch.
Now for some bad news: our licenses for most of these shows are only for North and/or South America But..we may be able to expand this to more regions before we launch next week! We're working hard to get worldwide licenses.

Austin's 8th annual Pregnant Bikini Contest was held last week, with expectant moms in their third trimester coming out to strut their bumps on stage. Preggos compete in games like a diaper change race and baby sock toss before parading out onto the stage for an interview, all for a chance to win a mom and baby gift pack. Most of the women wear itty-bitty bikinis, with heels to complete the look. Linea negras and turkey timer belly buttons are on full display. Host, local radio personality Rod Ryan, particularly admires one mama-to-be's "teeters full of milk."
Plus: "All the Preggo Ladies" Viral Video
Check out the pics of the hot mama contestants, then tell us: Would you ever do a pregnant bikini contest? Do you admire these women for making pregnancy look hot, or is it too much? Leave a comment.

Which Los Angeles Icon Lives Here?
Here's a home owned by a former neighbor we'd occasionally see driving around the hood sans shirt in his signature style. Decorated in a serene eco-ethnic modern style, with a textured palette not exactly reflective of his reputation/image (likely professionally decorated), the spicy name attached to the Malibu home might come as a surprise...
The fairly modest sized 2,731 square feet Malibu home belongs to none other than Michael Balzary, aka Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers (there are two additional guest houses, one used as a music studio). We'd see Flea semi-regularly around when he was a Los Feliz resident, a beloved fixture at the nearby Silver Lake Music Conservancy that he founded, and we were always a bit sad when he moved away (though we nearly literally ran into him at a Lakers game). But now we understand why he moved west of the 101. If we were offered a view (and a study/bookcase) like that overlooking the Pacific, we'd move in a heartbeat.
We're certainly impressed that every corner of his home is filled with artwork, reflecting a passion for sculpture, photography and paintings, alongside a decent size collection of bass guitars gracing a studio wall.
One of our favourite sections of the home is the conversation corner; a huge black and red painting floats above a Ligne Roset Togo sofa, optimizing a space that could have easily been wasted. It's also right next to the kitchen, making it an easy trip to refill on refreshments.
There plenty of more photos and details about Flea's Malibu dream home here to oggle (yes, a ridiculously funny real estate listing URL, if we've ever seen one).

NEW DELHI (AP) — Tata Motors Managing Director Karl Slym has died while on a business trip to Bangkok, Thailand, the Indian company said Sunday. He was 51.
The statement did not state the cause of death, but the Press Trust of India news agency quoted a company spokesman as saying that Slym seemed to have fallen from a high floor of a hotel in Bangkok.
He was in Bangkok to attend a meeting of the board of directors of Tata Motors Thailand Ltd.
Slym joined Tata Motors in October 2012, and was providing leadership to the company through a challenging market environment, the company said in the statement, quoting Chairman Cyprus P. Mistry.
Before joining Tata Motors, Slym was executive vice president of SGMW Motors, China, and prior to that, president, managing director and board member of General Motors in India between 2007 and 2011, according to PTI.

Zac Rosscup Returns and Anthony Rizzo Leads and Other Bullets
It was great to see folks at and after the game yesterday, and it was a particularly fun and exciting game to be at. Imagine what wins like yesterday's are going to feel like when they pull the Cubs to within a game of first place or they extend the Cubs' Wild Card lead.
- The Cubs called up lefty Zac Rosscup yesterday to replace Blake Parker, who was sent back to Iowa in time for the PCL All-Star Game, to which Parker was selected. Rosscup, 26, is a big league-caliber lefty who has been squeezed out of the bullpen picture for now because of its extreme depth, and because of the presence of two veteran lefties ahead of him. Being called up now is obviously about depth in the run-up to the break, given that the Cubs' bullpen has been used up a bit lately. But it does seem like, if one of the lefties is traded this month, Rosscup will be among the top options to get an extended look in the second half.
- Patrick Mooney writes about the kerfuffle involving Anthony Rizzo and Aroldis Chapman on Thursday. Like it looked on TV: Rizzo was standing up for his teammates, was being a leader, and has earned a whole lot of respect. We should probably file away this moment, coupled with his All-Star selection later that day. Feels like something we'll look back on and say, yeah, that's when this became Rizzo's team.
- Obviously everyone has been impressed by Arismendy Alcantara so far, but Rick Renteria says it would be premature to say whether he's going to have to stick around with the big team even after the All-Star break (CSN).
- Emilio Bonifacio (oblique) has finally been sent on his rehab assignment, starting with the AZL Cubs in Mesa – he had three hits yesterday in four at bats, leading off as DH. It's unclear how long it'll be before he's back, but at least it looks like he's going to start playing games soon.
- Incidentally, Cubs pitching prospect Carson Sands – one of the big-time high school arms the Cubs took in the 4/5/6 rounds and then spent big money to sign – made his debut in the AZL in that game, throwing a scoreless frame and striking out two.

After reading Karyn Shipman's letter last week, I went to the website www.donorschoose.org and searched for projects in 81321 area. Only two showed up! I partially funded one and fully funded the other. Now there is only one for Cortez. So what is keeping teachers from registering a project on this website?
I know there are lots of people out there that are looking to "adopt a teacher" or help out. We need some type of clearing house to identify those teachers needing help.

by Punchy » Sun Jan 08, 2012 2:27 pmI'm conflicted about this one. I really liked the stuff where Morrison was retelling the Superman origin. Yes, we've seen it all a million bazillion times before, but it was very well done and Morrison added several interesting new wrinkles to it, like Krypto being trapped in the Phantom Zone or the Kents using a deformed calf as a fake alien, that it didn't feel too repetitive. The other stuff however, the time-travel stuff… that just seemed unnecessary to me and rather confusing, why is Superman showing up in his modern day costume here? This book needs to stick with the jeans and t-shirt look for a while longer, and to have him in his proper duds confuses things. And then there's the Legion! I would have much preferred this to just be a retelling of the origin, without the time-travel stuff. The art was great from Kubert throughout, and the back-up from Fisch was also good, but it did make me annoyed that Ma and Pa Kent are dead in the new continuity.
by Juan Cena » Sun Jan 08, 2012 2:37 pmDC really should have made Morrison use the neo-classic Legion instead of letting him create yet another version, They just got done with Lo3W a few years back, and now Morrison muddies the Legion continuity waters again.
by Punchy » Sun Jan 08, 2012 2:39 pmFirst of all: STFU about the Legion, this is Action Comics
Secondly: How do you know this isn't the *neo-classic* Legion? A different costume doesn't mean a different continuity, this story is about time-travel, they could be the same Legion from earlier, or later in time. Hell, Superman is wearing a different costume in this issue than he is in #4, but it's not a different continuity is it? You're jumping to massive conclusions.
by Juan Cena » Sun Jan 08, 2012 2:46 pm
The previews suggest that this Legion is different from the neo-classic one.
by Punchy » Sun Jan 08, 2012 2:47 pm
What previews?
by Juan Cena » Sun Jan 08, 2012 2:48 pm
Solicts, whatever.
by Punchy » Sun Jan 08, 2012 2:49 pm
They do? Or are you jumping to conclusions yet again?
by Juan Cena » Sun Jan 08, 2012 3:00 pm
It does imply that this might not be the Legion currently roaming around the 31st century.
by e_galston » Sun Jan 08, 2012 4:46 pmas i said in your stupid legion thread nacireman, they have made a point to say that the current legion that is operating in the current Legion book CAN'T access time travel since the Flashpoint event, part of the reason the Legion members in Legion Lost are trapped in the modern era. the current universe that is depicted in the dc books (outside of Legion) are a different universe then the one the legion from legion of superheroes is from. It makes perfect sense for there to be a new legion of superheroes for the New 52.
by nietoperz » Sun Jan 08, 2012 5:24 pmThe point is that if there's something awry with this Legion (and solicits are very often full of inaccuracies, so there's no guarantee there will be) we will see an in-story reason for it. And while it may make Nac cry salty tears and curse up a redacted storm at DC, Time-Warner, Paul Levitz and possibly the entire Mormon Tabernacle Choir, the rest of us will just read the issue and either like it or not. No sense having an embolism over it.
by Juan Cena » Sun Jan 08, 2012 6:30 pm
From a business point it makes zero sense.
DC spent a lot of time, effort, and money to (re)introduce a version of the Legion that would appeal (so they thought) to long time fans of the team, while putting the other version that was appearing in its own book at the time in the mothballs, seemingly forever.
Logically, DC should be using the neo-classic team in x-overs. Which would promote the team outside the LSH book and hopefully introduce the team to non-Legion fans.
Instead, DC has introduced yet another version of the Legion in Action. Thus creating confusion among readers once again and undermining the success of the current Legion book. And I mean success in the financial sense of the term, as DC is (in theory) a for-profit company.
by Punchy » Sun Jan 08, 2012 6:43 pmWho's confused?
Nobody except you.
by avengingtitan » Sun Jan 08, 2012 6:48 pmChrist Nacireman shut up about the fucking legion. You're making me hate a group I actually like. Jesus Christ no one cares.
Anyway this was an okay book but it makes me hate DC for killing ma and pa. I used to love the issues where Clark would come home and see them after a big fight or just for advice. Without them he's become a hipster douche and theres nothing worse then that. Oh well it was still a good issue.
by Punchy » Sun Jan 08, 2012 6:55 pmDead parents = Hipster douche?
by avengingtitan » Sun Jan 08, 2012 7:26 pm
Because he doesnt have parents to smack it out him.

It's Inna Bronnikova with you today, presenting my video tutorial.
I decided to make a tag. I cut out 2 sides of the tag from the zipper pocket so that the pocket was in the middle of it.
Inside the tag, I put a stamp with herbs and glued the dried grass, played a little bit with alcoholic ink.
Outside the tag, I used a texture with glossy accent and pigments. Sprinkled glossy glitter.
I stitched the tag around the perimeter on the sewing machine, cut off the excess and decorated it.
I hope you enjoy my tutorial. Hugs Inna

» » What are Exogenous Ketones and Should You Take them?What are Exogenous Ketones and Should You Take them?
You've probably heard them mentioned on various keto diet blogs: exogenous ketonesexogenous ketones
There are many misconceptions surrounding exogenous ketones – they've been getting a reputation as a "magic bullet" or "shortcut" to ketosis, weight loss, and other health benefits…all without needing to follow a keto diet.
But is this really true? While they certainly have a variety of uses and benefits, we're going to clear up the facts about exogenous ketones for you in this article (plus video).
We recently did a rapid-fire questions round with Alex Cunningham from Perfect Keto, and he answered your most common questions on exogenous ketone supplements:
Alex was born and raised in San Francisco and graduated from Villanova University with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering. He's passionate about nutrition, breaking down health myths, trends in the health food industry, the piano, and Bay Area sports. Alex is the Head of Partnerships for https://www.perfectketo.com/ketosummit/base">Just click here to check it out.
Let's go back to basics a bit…when you go on a Keto diet, you restrict net carbohydrate intake to below 20-25g per day.
And after a few days…
Your blood glucose levels fall as you deplete your glycogen stores and your cells can't rely on glucose as their main fuel source anymore. There just isn't enough to meet their needs.
You effectively force your body to start burning stored fat.
And one of the by-products of your liver breaki9ng down the fatty acids is ketone bodies.
While many of your cells can use fatty acids and glycerol directly as fuel, your brain cells cannot. And so in the absence of glucose, your body will send ketones to your brain to fuel it.
These ketones are produced in your liver through the breakdown of fatty acids in a process called ketogenesis.
There are actually two different types of ketone bodies….
The ones your body produces naturally are called endogenous ketones .endogenous ketones
And the artificially produced ketones you take in the form of a powder/pill/oil supplement are called exogenous ketones .Acetone Acetoacetic Acid Beta Hydroxybuyrate
Now that we're clear about what the different types of ketones actually are, let's dive into the different types of ketone supplements…

Duh, of course it matters! Who doesn't want their students telling the stories of rocks? If a purpose of life is to have rich, meaningful experiences, shouldn't education contribute to this purpose? Shouldn't a goal of education be to provide rich experiences and increase students' capacity for rich experiences in everyday life outside of school? Shouldn't education be transformative? John Dewey, one of America's most important philosophers and educators, certainly believed this (see Experience and Education ).
In addition, transformative experiences are related to a number of other important educational outcomes including:
For research reports on this topic, see the following articles:
Girod, M., Twyman, T., Wojcikiewicz, S. (2010). Teaching and learning science for transformative, aesthetic experience. Journal of Science Teacher Education , 21 , 801-824. doi:10.1007/s10972-009-9175-2

This is a question in need of further research. Initial studies suggest students are more likely to undergo transformative experiences when they have an interest in the domain, identify with the domain, perceive a connection to their teacher, and adopt a learning goal orientation (i.e., focus on learning as opposed to social comparison). A willingness to "surrender" to the experience may also be important along with other factors.

We've conducted a fair amount of research on this topic, primarily in the domain of science education, resulting in the Teaching for Transformative Experiences in Science model. Click here for more details.
Call a doctor if your child:
Check with your doctor if your child:
Health professionals who may care for a child who has with type 1 diabetes include:
A child with type 1 diabetes needs to visit his or her doctor at least every 3 to 6 months. During these visits, the doctor reviews your child's blood sugar level records and asks about any problems you and your child may have. Your child's blood pressure is checked, and growth and development is evaluated. The doctor examines your child for signs of infections, especially at injection sites. Your child usually has the following tests at office visits:
If your child has a family history of high cholesterol or heart disease and is at least 10 years old, your child's doctor may do a cholesterol (LDL and HDL) test when type 1 diabetes is diagnosed or as soon as blood sugars are under control. If there is no family history of high cholesterol, your child may have a cholesterol test at puberty. If the LDL cholesterol is less than 100 mg/dL (2.60 mmol/L) and there is no family history of high cholesterol, the doctor may repeat this test every 5 years.
Diabetes increases your child's risk for dental problems. Experts suggest dental checkups every 6 months.
Once a year, you and your child may also see other members of the diabetes team, for example:
Your child will have an initial dilated eye exam ( ophthalmoscopy ) by an ophthalmologist or an optometrist if your child has had diabetes for 3 to 5 years and has started puberty or has had diabetes for 3 to 5 years and is at least 10 years old. This eye exam checks for signs of diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma . Thereafter, your child may have an eye exam every year. If your child is at low risk for vision problems, your doctor may consider follow-up exams less often.
Your child's doctor will also start doing an annual urine test to check for protein. This test helps detect diabetic nephropathy .
Your child may have a test for thyroid antibodies when type 1 diabetes is diagnosed. Also, a
CAMILLA SKOVGAARD Ankle Boots J5opB3o
test and a thyroxine (T4) test may be done every 1 to 2 years. These tests check for thyroid problems, which are common among people who have type 1 diabetes.
Other tests include:
The goal of your child's treatment for type 1 diabetes is to always keep his or her blood sugar levels within a target range . A target range reduces the chance of diabetes complications. Daily diabetes care and regular medical checkups will help you and your child accomplish this goal.
