Day 8 of the Aljunied-Hougang Town Council (AHTC) trial saw witnesses for the prosecution questioned for the first time. Senior Counsel Davinder Singh cross-examined former Workers Party head Low Thia Khiang. Mr. Low denied that his supporters had a plan for running the town council.
Mr. Singh alleged that Mr. Low did not act as a responsible custodian of public funds after the General Elections in 2011, when the Workers Party took over management of what was then Aljunied-Hougang-Punggol East Town Council (AHPETC). Instead, Mr. Singh says that Mr. Low had plotted for WP supporters Danny Loh and his wife How Weng Fan to set up FM Solutions and Services (FMSS), to become the managing agent of AHTC, instead of then-contractor CPG Facilities Management.
Senior Counsel Singh said during the cross-examination, "I suggest to you sir, that on the Monday morning after the elections, you had decided to get rid of CPG and to appoint a company in which Ms. How would be involved as the MA of the (town council)," which Mr. Low prompt denied.
Mr. Singh represents the plaintiff, Pasir Ris-Punggol Town Council (PRPTC), which manages Punggol East Ward at present. However, from 2013 to 2015, Punggol East has been managed by the AHPETC.
PRPTC is suing WP MPs Low, Sylvia Lim, Pritam Singh, Ms. How and FMSS for an alleged breach of their legal and financial responsibilities to the AHTC.
As proof of his allegation that Mr. Low had a plan all along, Mr. Singh cited an email that Mr. Low had sent to fellow WP MPs-elect dated May 9, which was the first working day after GE2011, when the Aljunied GRC had been won by WP from the PAP.
Mr. Singh referred to this point in the email, "I have also communicated to Ms. How our decision that Hougang Town Council will be merged with Aljunied Town Council. We will appoint (a) Managing Agent to manage the town instead of self-management."
Ms. How, then Secretary for Hougang Town Council, received a copy of this email as well.
It is the Senior Counsel's allegation that Mr. Low and the other WP MP's had already decided to replace the existing managing agent for the town council, and did not bother to even evaluate its performance, saying, "This was the first working meeting after the euphoria of the elections… you had decided to axe CPG."
Mr. Low denied this, saying that what they had discussed on May 9 was merely a contingency plan. He also cited that he had received feedback that CPG had not been responsive to the town council.
In fact, Mr. Low continued, it was only in a meeting with CPG onMay 30th that he learned the company was withdrawing its services.
The Senior Counsel countered this by saying that Danny Loh had applied for a new company name, as early as May 12, which proved that they had decided to set up FMSS by then. Mr. Low agreed this was so, and admitted that he had asked Mr. How's aid in setting up a a facilities management company even before May 12, but that he was unaware of when exactly FMSS incorporated.
However, Mr. Singh argued the email dated May 9 was proof that Ms. How had been directed to incorporate FMSS in order to implement what they had planned.
Mr. Low reiterated this was a mere contingency plan, coming from his concern that CPG would withdraw after the opposition victory that secured the GRC.
When asked whether Mr. Low had informed CPG that they had chosen to replace them, Mr. Low said "Why should I tell them? It's not a matter of replacement. They wanted out, they asked for a mutual release, we released them. And we appointed a new MA."
The Senior Counsel also pointed out that Mr. Low neither read CPG's contract nor accounted for its cost structure, because, he alleged, a plan that would benefit them was already in place. Again, Mr. Low replied that since CPG had given notice, there was no longer anything to discuss.
Mr. Singh said that Mr. Low had in effect made the opportunity for FMSS to conveniently replace CPG, a move that worked in the WP's favor, since the party's supporters made up FMSS. According to the Senior Counsel, this meant that Mr. Low"put political supporters ahead of residents' interests," an allegation which Mr. Low denied.
Mr. Singh then asked why FMSS had been set up in the first place, given that according to Mr. Low's own affidavit, Ms. How and Mr. Loh were already thinking of retiring. He said that by doing this, Mr. Low had brought in a "profit element" as the couple had to set up a new company. Mr. Singh further alleged that Mr. Low "wanted CPG out" and was "playing with monies that didn't belong to" him.
Mr. Low simply replied, "Your honour, I reject these allegations."
All in all, Mr. Singh's cross-examination of Mr. Low took three hours, and is scheduled to continue on Wednesday, October 17.

He also arranged all the requirements of livelihood such as 12 acres of legal land to each section.

The architecture of the temple is unique in all aspects.

Ryukei - bone netsuke of hollow cylindrical hanaike
Edo (Tokyo), circa 1850
A green-stained bone netsuke of hollow cylindrical hanaike form with a deeply cut design of a cricket. It rests with its wings closed and delicate antennae sweeping back over it. The eye is inlaid in pale horn and a second cricket is inlaid in brown horn on the reverse. A small peg on the side forms the himotoshi, the cord threaded inside the cylinder.
Winged crickets enjoyed much popularity in Japan, where they were kept in small cages to provide music during the warm summer evenings. Some, such as the suzumushi producing a delicate bell-like chime.
Meinertzhagen's card index records this as "A fine little netsuke, the stain of a beautiful rich green color (sic). Sold Mrs Althusen, Sept. 20th 1930, for £2.10s."

6 Home Remedies to Get Rid of a Sore Throat
Sore throat may be taken as a condition of throat in which the person meets a bacterial infection with the throat area that makes him go restless. This condition can really leave you devastated because of the irritation, inflammation and other such signs that it comes with. If you are experiencing the problem of sore throat in your case, you may choose to go for the tips that we are mentioning here so as to get rid of it in a better way.
6 Home Remedies to Get Rid of a Sore Throat
1. Honey To Give A Soothing Effect:-
In order to get rid of the problem off sore throat, honey can prove to be an awesome home remedy as it has got curative and anti-inflammatory properties in it. It also will reduce the action of bacteria and is rather a sugar free and soothing source as well. Honey can be added either to milk or there is no problem even if you consume it directly.
2. Turmeric Milk as A Curative Approach:-
Mix up some turmeric in milk while boiling it and then drink this milk to cure the sore throat problem. Turmeric is rich in antibacterial, antimicrobial and anti-fungal properties and proves to heal the inner wounds in body in a better way. The turmeric added milk can thus prove to have awesome curative benefits for your problem.
3. Licorice Root Essence Mixed In Salt Water:-
Take some water, add salt to it and add licorice root essence to it. This will prove to have benefits against the problem you are experiencing for sure as it has been proven that licorice root extract is the best remedy against sore throat problem. You may also choose to make usage of this solution so as to gargle with it daily so as to get benefited against sore throat problem.
4. Sage and Peppermint:-
Sage which is an herb can prove to have breath taking benefits against sore throat problem. You may also choose to add some peppermint to your tea so as to get added benefits. Both these approaches are rather proven to be beneficial for sore throat problem in several surveys conducted on the real life patients.
5. Medicinal Approaches:-
In case no home based approach proves to be effective in your case, you may also choose to go for having an appointment fixed with some good health specialist and ask him to recommend you some medicine for this purpose. The medicine will relieve you against the inflammation as well as the infection that has proven to make your situation worse. The treatment can also be based on relieving the symptoms as well.
6. Avoid Extra Spicy or Junk Food:-
Extra spicy or junk food can prove to make your condition worse and hence should be avoided. The spicy and junk food absorbs moisture while it is in your mouth and thus may even leave you devastated making the infection get even worse. You are advised to avoid such food items in this case and probably you should switch to a liquid based diet as the liquid based nutrients are best absorbed by the human body.

Legal Operations teams are generally tasked with the design, planning and implementation of their legal team's strategic initiatives to support the business. They must be able to balance managing risk and regulatory changes with operational efficiencies whilst keeping costs in check. Access to data in a structured form allows the team to provide valuable and powerful advice, guidance and support to their legal function. Given the unique position of an in-house legal function, they often hold a wide range of information about the business they support, which gives them an unparalleled view of their organisation. Whilst most in-house legal teams will broadly use the data for similar reasons, the rise in legal and regulatory changes impacting financial institutions has increased their demand for meaningful data. Some of the main legal and regulatory changes include the Senior Manager and Certification Regime (SMCR), "ring-fencing", Dodd Frank, European Markets Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR) and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), to name but a few.
The introduction in 2018 of the Senior Manager and Certification Regime (SMCR) by the Financial Conduct Authority has put additional onus on certain key individuals and material risk takers within UK financial institutions to evidence their decisions. Maintaining structured data in a form that can be analysed and measured will help provide evidence for some of the key decisions being taken. These decisions might include law firm panel appointments, outsourcing / insourcing business activities and management of legal risks.
Those Financial institutions with clear visibility of the derivatives and related instruments they have entered into will have benefited in understanding any re-papering needed for "ring-fencing". The data may also enable them to ensure they meet the new collateral obligations under EMIR. Understanding the legal spend to support these legal and regulatory changes will allow the in-house function to better prepare and budget for future changes.
Under recent Banking reforms, financial institutions are required to maintain "living wills" to try and ensure they fail safely. As part of this activity key contracts / documentation is required to be maintained in a central location. As many of these will have passed through the legal function at some stage, a well-structured database with key details of the contracts will help ensure obsolete documents are removed and new documents are added.
With the increases in cyber security, the legal function will, over time, be able to better identify which external law firms have handled data for the organisation and ensure that robust measures to safe guard that data are being applied by the law firms.
The data can support trend analysis which will help the legal function understand and be better positioned to support major changes in demands for products and services and any resultant risks. A significant change in demand may be seasonal (such as end of a tax year or when certain subsidies are paid), market or social media driven (such as mis-selling issues) or economic/geopolitical (such as changes in interest rates, exchange rates, commodity prices as well political uncertainty). Any of these can alter the legal risk profile of the business and change demand for legal resources. Being aware of pressure points will help the legal function adapt.
Legal departments in financial services face a number of unique regulatory challenges. Technology provides a central source of truth to manage these requirements. The resulting data output ensures legal operations can support the legal function quickly and accurately while predicting risk and change.

Pregame: Haggins to lead FSU in quest for bowl eligibility
Florida State will play its first game in eight years without Jimbo Fisher at noon.
The Seminoles take on Louisiana-Monroe just 24 hours after Fisher announced his resignation from FSU and signed a 10-year, $75 million deal with Texas A&M.
In his place will be interim head coach Odell Haggins, who is the first African American head coach in FSU history.
Haggins has coached at FSU since 1994 and coached defensive tackles since 1996.
The Seminoles come into the game at 5-6 needing one more win to get to bowl eligibility for the 36th straight season. They have wins over Wake Forest, Duke, Syracuse, Delaware State, and Florida and losses to Alabama, North Carolina State, Miami, Louisville, Boston College and Clemson.
ULM comes into the game at 4-7 with a 42-14 loss to Auburn in the Warhawks only game against a Power-5 opponent.
The game will be on ESPN 3 and 103.1 FM in Tallahassee.
An injury report was not provided by FSU due to it being a non-conference opponent.
There is a small chance of rain as the game goes on and it will be in the mid-70s throughout.
FSU was expected to host three-star quarterback James Foster before the game, but he cancelled his visit after Fisher resigned. There are no other recruits expected for the game.

People pay good money to search engine optimizing firms to make it onto the first page of Google search results. The bigger the company, the more you pay, and some pay tens of thousands of dollars every month. However, the average user or small business owner just has to do the best they can to game Google's search algorithm. This algorithm is kept secret for good reasons, but some scammers have figured out ways to use it to their advantage. They use it to attract victims into various scams. They do this by getting their scam sites listed on the first page of Google search results where most people believe only legitimate sites will be listed.
But how do they do this? In order to explain this tactic, it is first necessary to understand something called, 'open redirect'. Open redirect is a technique that can hide the ultimate destination of a link by making the link appear as if it is leading to a legitimate and often well-known site.
I'm not going to go into much technical detail here but will use an example to demonstrate how tricky this technique can be. So, imagine you get a phishing email. It may look legitimate. It may even come from someone you know and have a subject that is commonly connected to that person. And then it may contain a link to a page that the person wants you to visit. Maybe they mention a chance to win a free iphone. Being a tech savvy person, you check the link and see something like this.
So, this looks like it leads to a legitimate domain; google.com, right? And, if you click on the link, sure enough, it seems to go to the Chrome Web Store. In fact it does go there, as you can see in the image below. At this point, you may simply think you've hit the jackpot. You really might be able to win a free iphone. However, there is one more step. You have to go to the company website to get your phone. There are several options here. One is to go to the site listed under the title, the other is a bit.ly link, and the third is through the website listed on the right of the page.
I don't know what kind of Chrome browser extension is offered here in the Chrome Store because I don't use Chrome, but it probably offers popups and other adware that will try to get your personal information. In any event, clicking on the address under the title will take you here.
Here, the English alone should make you suspicious, but maybe you don't look too closely. This page also appears to be linked to a chat site where people discuss nothing to do with the free phone. You can put almost anything that looks like an email address and shipping address in the form shown above. You will then see some sort of fake verification going on and then be told you must prove you're not a bot. You must also choose another free offer, so I chose to get a free PlayStation 5. Why not? But then you have to register, which requires you to give more and more personal information. And on, and on, it goes. It's just a matter of time before you realize you've given up enough personal information and you're not going to get a free phone.
Now, how is such a redirect used with Google search? How does a scammer get Google to list this scam page on the first page of search results? Well, this is Google's own fault. In an attempt to monetize its search results, it sends all pages through its analytic system which is basically a page connected to Google. When you click on such a link to a site in the search results, you will briefly see this message showing this redirect from the Google analytic page.
This is different from the Chrome Webstore scam. That scam doesn't need a redirect because it actually leads to the Chrome Webstore, a legitimate Google site. It just uses the store to offer an adware extension and links to scam sites. In other words, the site has built-in credibility. However, the scam sites this Chrome Webstore page leads victims to can independently manipulate their page source code to get on the first page of Google search results. So now, there are two paths that lure victims in; Google Search to Chrome Webstore to Scam page, and Google Search to Scam page.
Once these scammers get the link that begins with google.com (either from the Google Search page or the Webstore), they can send it via any social media. Instagram and Skype users may see a lot of these and many have become victims. Some scammers have started using a few additional tricks. One of them won't let you get your free iphone unless you give them your real phone number because they send you an SMS code that you need to use to continue to be scammed. They then take the first three digits of your phone to identify your ISP provider and show you a scam page that looks like something from the legitimate ISP website.
The best way to see these scams in action is to type "free iphone" or "iphone giveaway" into Google search. Here's how the scam website looks on the first page of Google's search results.
Notice how you can't see the entire URL and that the title emphasizes its Google connection. Here, in fact, is the complete link.
Now, such a long link may make some people suspicious. However, if you paste this link into a Word document, it resolves to this. (I've removed the link.)
FREE IPHONE GIVEAWAY (google.com)
Copying and pasting this into a phishing email will be much more effective. Notice again how the scammers make it seem as if Google is giving away a free iPhone.
And it's not only Google.com that they are using to make the scam look valid. Here is a list of other legitimate sites that will lead you to the same scam page.
In fact, the first page of these search results contained only scam sites. These scam sites come and go every day but are impossible to stop completely. That is to say, you are bound to encounter them in your internet travels. They can look very convincing. The good news is that if you've seen one, you've seen them all. If you have any doubts, try typing in fake information in the forms and see what happens. But, it's best to keep in mind that you should be suspicious of anything that's offered to you for free. It may be offered, but you'll never get it. What you will get is increased spam attacks and worse. You could lose control of your email or social media sites. Your identity could be stolen and used to buy products that you will pay for. And, ironically, you may lose control of your own phone as the attackers could control it remotely. In other words, someone will get a free phone, but it won't be you.

Teeth Whitening
Fix your smile with a solution that suits you best
Teeth Whitening
Teeth are often discoloured by the foods we eat or bad habits we may have such as smoking and drinking too much tea or coffee. We are often not satisfied with the colour of our teeth and may want them lighter and whiter. Such discolouration can be fixed using Teeth whitening kits or a laser whitening which we.
Teeth whitening kits are patient dependent and only work to its optimum with proper care and diligent use in order to achieve the best results possible. Custom teeth whitening trays are fabricated for your teeth specifically in order to ensure a snug fit. The Teeth whitening solution is then provided by us followed by the Teeth whitening instructions to ensure that the best results are achieved.
Laser Whitening
Laser whitening is a lot quicker and only requires one 1 hour session. They often lead to less overall sensitivity and tend to last longer than Teeth whitening kits.
It must be noted that no Teeth whitening solution is permanent. Teeth will eventually go back to their original color over time. This process is accelerated if poor oral habits are persist. In order to maintain Teeth whiteness for a longer period, proper diet and oral hygiene needs to be maintained. For a permanent Teeth whitening solution, Dental Veneers or crowns are considered.

A recent study by researchers at the Rutgers School of Public Health found that clients who frequent hair and nail salons have more instances of dermal and fungal symptoms, as compared to clients who use the same services less frequently. Although several studies in California and in Asian countries have been conducted that assess risks to hair and nail salon employees, risks to clients, and clients' perceptions of those hazards, are historically less well understood. Furthermore, although clients might be aware of some of the hazardous chemicals, like formaldehyde, they often do not recognize the dangers posed by pathogens including bacteria, fungi and viruses.
Rutgers School of Public Health alum, Lindsey J. Milich, MPH, led the study and surveyed clients from six salons in three adjacent New Jersey counties between November 2015 and February 2016. The survey was administered either in person or online and collected information about client demographics (e.g. gender, age, race/ethnicity, and education level), the number and types of symptoms they experienced following hair and/or nail salon visits, and general knowledge about salon safety.
Among the 90 survey respondents, 52 percent reported experiencing dermal or fungal symptoms following a salon visit. Moreover, these symptoms were more prevalent among clients who sought salon services three or more times within the past year compared to clients who reported less frequent salon use. Notably, respiratory symptoms were more common in clients who went to salons less frequently. These findings suggested that clients who may have particular respiratory sensitivities to salon environments could be less likely to return.
"It is exciting to see the focus shifting toward the health and safety of hair and nail salon clients, as much of the spotlight has been focused on the technicians," said Milich. "We are hopeful this is the beginning of many studies to come, in order to continue identifying ways to improve safety and health in salons."
The study provides new insights into adult client safety and health knowledge and presence of dermal, respiratory, and fungal symptoms. Results from this and other studies could inform the development of new training materials as well as indoor air and environmental quality interventions to increase safety and health knowledge while decreasing salon-related symptoms among clients, workers, and managers.
This study was conducted as part of Milich' s culminating Fieldwork/Practicum experience for her Master of Public Health degree at the Rutgers School of Public Health.

NUSRL Ranchi
2018 CLAT preferences: Same same • NLS 'loses' a few more • NLU Mumbai popular again • Clataclysm gave a few bumps
However, NLSIU's unequivocal lead has started crumbling a tiny bit: while last year, only three of the top 50 all India ranks did not pick Bangalore, this year NLSIU 'lost' 10 in the top 50: ranks 6, 11, 15, 32, 38, 42-46, 52, 63 and 65 did not opt for NLSIU in the general list.
Study: 15 NLUs make $10m+ per year from 'unconstitutional' NRI quota, who have lower CGPAs, with little trickle-down
NLSIU Bangalore earns annual revenues of over Rs 1 crore as fees paid by students admitted under its foreign national quota even though more than 80 per cent of those students were not even schooled outside India, revealed a study by Chirayu Jain published in Economic & Political Weekly (EPW) in December 2017.
"Hope for good days to come": NUSRL VC BC Nirmal return in limbo as acting VC set to leave • Legal challenge not practical
NUSRL Ranchi vice chancellor BC Nirmal has been willing to resume his duties at the law school for more than eight months now during which he has been allegedly forced to stay away from work and has allegedly been denied his salary, emoluments and benefits even though he was not removed from his post but only went on leave, he said.
Students lockdown NUSRL Ranchi again; State orders brute force on peaceful protest again, arrests 10 students
10 NUSRL Ranchi students, including one female student, have been arrested by the local police this evening, after the Jharkhand high court authorised the police to use physical force to clear out a peaceful protest led by the students inside the campus of the law school.
4 months after NUSRL Ranchi student strike, students claim changes merely cosmetic, problems persist [READ LETTER]
NUSRL Ranchi's four-day lockdown protest in April had ostensibly achieved administration acknowledgement of many of the top demands of protesting students.
NUSRL stays clear of LPO, bags 27 jobs, as AIR, EBC, L&T, Khaitan & 9 other firms and Cos show up on campus
NUSRL Ranchi placed 26 students out of 40 who participated in the campus recruitment offered to 94 students graduating in 2017, steering entirely clear of Legal Process Outsourcing (LPO) jobs this year. One out of the 40 participants found a job independently.
Inspired by NUSRL: NLS, Nalsar, NUJS student councils unite under groundbreaking manifesto that could make every single NLU better, if successful
The student bar associations of NLSIU Bangalore, Nalsar Hyderabad and NUJS Kolkata have released an unprecedented joint statement in solidarity with the recently-successful student protestors at NUSRL Ranchi, and issued a call for all national law school students to work together towards jointly fixing what they feel is a root cause of many NLUs' problems: a distinct lack of funding.
What a victory: NUSRL students win wonderful concessions from new temp VC to fix many things, suspend 4-day protest pending improvements
Students of NUSRL Ranchi, have hammered out a compromise agreement with a new acting vice chancellor, winning a series of concessions to improve the administration and management at the law school.
Day 3 of NUSRL Ranchi lockdown protests enter discussion phase, HC judges visit campus • Seniors conduct LLB classes for juniors
NUSRL Ranchi students on campus lockdown protests were visited today by four judicial dignitaries to discuss their demands, as their protests against administrative apathy entered its third day and a new phase where senior LLB students have begun conducting classes for the juniors.
The NUJS Kolkata student juridical association (SJA) president reacted to NUSRL Ranchi vice chancellor Prof BC Nirmal's statement that NUSRL students are protesting on campus not for rights but for a holiday, calling him "delusional" and "plain indifferent", in a Facebook post.
NUSRL Ranchi's student body is out in full force before its campus gates since yesterday, having locked out the administration and faculty members until NUSRL vice chancellor Prof BC Nirmal, and registrar in charge Dr PP Mitra, resign or are removed from their posts and the students' other demands are met.

The margin between NLU Jodhpur and NLIU Bhopal is negligible this year, according to an analysis of the preferences of candidates taking the 2014 Common Law Admissions Test (CLAT).
Former Banaras Hindu University (BHU) Prof BC Nirmal has today joined NUSRL Ranchi as vice chancellor, almost five months after the last VC demitted office.
Lower CLAT prefs in shambles after 'correction'; 1 each bounced out of top schools; Nuals drops one rank

Top Ten Horror Releases of 2018
Written by James Ferguson
As we stand at the end of another year, we take the opportunity to look back on all the awesome comics that came out in 2018. Sure, other things happened to, but I'm here for the funny books. At the time of this writing, I've read 2,144 comics and graphic novels this year. While not all of those were horror-related, a good amount of them were and I've endeavored to read as much spooky stuff as I possibly could. As such, I've got a list of the best of the best the horror genre has to offer this year in the wonderful world of comics.
I've had the opportunity to speak to a number of the creators that are mentioned in this list on my horror comics podcast, Funny Book Splatter. If you haven't checked it out yet, please give it a listen. It's an interview show where I speak to writers, artists, colorists, and more about their comics, the horror genre, and whatever else comes up in conversation. Check it out wherever you get your podcasts. Now, let's get this show on the road.
10 - Cursed Comics Calvacade (DC Comics)
Writers: James Tynion IV, Bryan Hill, Tim Seeley, Riley Rossmo, Gary Dauberman, Vita Ayala, Gabriel Hardman, Corinna Bechko, Magdalene Visaggio, and Michael Moreci
DC Comics has been on a roll with its Halloween anthologies and I sincerely hope the publisher keeps this up. It allows a number of creators to explore the darker side of the DC Universe, which is more than just super scary characters like Swamp Thing and Clayface. Here we get everyone from Superman and Batman to Black Lightning and Zatanna tackling things that go bump in the night.
I feel The super hero genre is often looked over when it comes to horror, but the fact of the matter is these characters are facing untold terrors day in and day out. It's just masked under the guise of capes and spandex. Cursed Comics Calvacade digs into this in the best possible ways, showing that even someone like the Man of Steel can be shaken to his core.
Review: Cursed Comics Calvacade #1
9 – Cosmic Ghost Rider (Marvel Comics)
Writer: Donny Cates
If this was a list of the most fun comics of the year, Cosmic Ghost Rider would be right at the top. It is an amazing story of Frank Castle, the Punisher who dies and becomes the Ghost Rider, then becomes a Herald of Galactus imbued with the Power Cosmic, and finally serves as the right hand of Thanos. Frank is trying to redeem himself and he figures the best way to do that is to fix Thanos. He goes back in time and snatches the infant Mad Titan before he can get so...well...mad. Frank can't bring himself to kill the little tyke, but instead tries to raise him as his own and this goes horribly.
Cosmic Ghost Rider could have just been an all-out insane ride through the cosmic corners of the Marvel Universe. Instead, it uses that as a starting point and builds a healthy bit of character development with Frank as he struggles with his past and his constant failure to do good, plus some fantastic humor. Dylan Burnett's artwork makes the comic feel like it's going to explode in your hands at any moment with jaw-dropping visuals that are straight out of the greatest metal album that's never been created.
Reviews: Cosmic Ghost Rider #1 | Cosmic Ghost Rider #2 | Cosmic Ghost Rider #3 | Cosmic Ghost Rider #5
8 – Gravetrancers (Black Mask Studios)
Writer: M.L. Miller
If you want a comic that's going to keep you on your toes, look no further than Gravetrancers. This book hits hard and fast with constant twists and turns, each more bizarre than the last. It follows a brother and sister as they visit their father's grave in an effort to get some closure only to find pure unbridled terror. The family that runs the cemetery is using corpses to make a new kind of highly addictive drug and things only get more bonkers from here.
Gravetrancers is very reminiscent of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. This family is messed up in the darkest ways imaginable and no one is safe. Any one of these characters could be brutally murdered at a moment's notice. This is a frightening read from beginning to end.
Reviews: Gravetrancers #1 | Gravetrancers #2 | Gravetrancers #3 | Gravetrancers #4
7 – Harrow County (Dark Horse Comics)
Writer: Cullen Bunn
One of the best horror series in recent years came to a close in June. While it's devastating that we don't get any more Harrow County on the stands, it could not have had a better ending. Creators Cullen Bunn and Tyler Crook stuck the landing so well, bringing Emmy's story to such a satisfying and terrifying conclusion.
We spent time with Emmy, seeing her grow as a person and fighting her own destiny. Since we were so invested in the character – and by extension, the people and monsters around her – it made the series mean so much more. The horrors this young girl faces feel real and cut deep. This, coupled with Crook's incredible artwork, makes for a powerful one-two punch. Crook conveys a ton of emotion in every panel with his characters, amplifying every moment with gorgeous landscapes that set the tone for each scene, from the most harrowing to the occasional glimmer of hope.
Reviews: Harrow County #29 | Harrow County #30 | Harrow County #31 | Harrow County #32
6 – Gideon Falls (Image Comics)
Writer: Jeff Lemire
Jeff Lemire made his horror debut with Gideon Falls and it is quite an opening number. This chilling story follows a dual narrative with a disgraced priest on one side and a man battling mental illness on the other. The two are linked by the mysterious and haunting Black Barn. At first, their connection isn't clear, but at the end of the first arc, a stunning revelation changes everything. This is the kind of thing that forces you to go back and re-read the previous issues for hints at what is to come.
What puts Gideon Falls over the top is Andrea Sorrentino's stellar artwork. He creates new and interesting ways to tell a story, stretching the boundaries of the comic book medium. Sorrentino is constantly in control of the pacing, guiding you through each frightening detail of the story as you get pulled deeper and deeper into the abyss.
Reviews: Gideon Falls #1 | Gideon Falls #2 | Gideon Falls #6 | Gideon Falls #8
5 – The Immortal Hulk (Marvel Comics)
Writer: Al Ewing
In case you couldn't tell from some of the other entries on this list, this was the year that horror really infiltrated the super hero genre. There is no better example of this than The Immortal Hulk. Sure, the Hulk is literally a monster, but this book takes that idea to the next level. Bruce Banner was killed, but his green buddy won't let him die. Instead, the Hulk rises every night like some kind of vampire zombie, dealing out his own form of justice before shrinking away with the sunrise.
The Immortal Hulk has gone in some pretty crazy directions so far, exploring Bruce Banner's tortured psyche, his relationship to his other half, and the horrors he faces on a daily basis. The most recent arc has the Hulk cut up into dozens of pieces and then willing his body back together in some horrifying visuals. To make matters worse (or better, depending on who you speak to), he absorbs a mad scientist while this is going on, so you see this guy's arms struggling to break free as he's pulled in by the green flesh of the Hulk. Think about that the next time you watch the Avengers.
Reviews: Immortal Hulk #1 | Immortal Hulk #2 | Immortal Hulk #5 | Immortal Hulk #8
4 – Babyteeth (AfterShock Comics)
Writer: Donny Cates
As with Cosmic Ghost Rider, Donny Cates' other entry on this list, Babyteeth is driven by incredible and well-developed characters. Sadie Ritter gave birth to the Anti-Christ and that has turned her life upside down. She's become a target from cults and assassins looking to get their hands on her little bundle of joy and all she wants to do is provide a safe, happy home for the kid. This latest arc has taken her and her family to Hell itself and the untold atrocities that await within.
The horrors that Sadie faces feel all the more important and frightening because of how close we feel to her as a character. It's easy to see a bit of yourself in this quiet, nerdy girl. Her father and sister are the best support system around and will do absolutely anything to keep Sadie and her son safe. This has resulted in some terrific and emotional moments that break up the non-stop tension this series holds. Garry Brown's artwork brings that out in the best way, saying so much with a single glance.
Reviews: Babyteeth #9 | Babyteeth #10 | Babyteeth #12 | Babyteeth #13
3 – Morte (Source Point Press)
Writer: Kevin Joseph
Out of all the comics I read this year, Morte hit the hardest. It's a somber and moving tale of the last man on earth as he works to put the corpses of everyone around him to rest. This is a silent comic with only a single, powerful word of dialogue in the entire thing. D.A. Bishop conveys so much emotion on every page, driving home the stark feeling of loneliness our protagonist is going through.
We don't know how or why everyone else has died or why he survived. That doesn't matter to the story one bit. What we do see is what this man has chosen to do with this time left on this planet. If I was in that position, I would be eating pizza every day and reading every book ever written. He's clearly a better man than I, doing some noble and thankless work that is emotionally trying. It's rare that a horror comic can move you, but this one will certainly do so.
Review: Morte
2 – Infidel (Image Comics)
Writer: Pornsak Pichetshote
Few comics were as relevant as Infidel in 2018. This stunning book confronted the horrors of racism, manifesting them into real-life monsters that have been haunting a New York apartment building for years. They feed on the xenophobic tendencies of the residents, growing and morphing into hideous creatures that defy imagination. Artist Aaron Campbell makes these specters appear like they're from another dimension entirely. Your mind will struggle to understand what it's seeing as these things just should not exist.
Infidel definitely has a message mixed in, but it's blended well and not so blatant that you're seeing that "The More You Know" banner fly across the page. It's a comic that will not only scare the crap out of you, but will make you think.
Reviews: Infidel #1 | Infidel #2 | Infidel #3 | Infidel #4 | Infidel #5
1 – Come Into Me (Black Mask Studios)
Writers: Zac Thompson & Lonnie Nadler
If you ask anyone about their social media usage, they'll probably tell you that they use it too much and would like to cut down, but it's so hard. Well, read Come Into Me and you might be logging out of Facebook pretty quickly. This comic looks at what the next phase of social media could be. In an era where we're sharing more and more information about ourselves, the final frontier becomes your innermost thoughts. A company comes up with a technology that allows people to take a ride in someone else's head. See the world how they do and experience their every thought, whim, and memory.
Of course, this goes horribly wrong when two people get stuck in one body, each fighting for control. It results in some of the best body horror of the year as this man's entire being starts to revolt against him. It's horrifying to watch, but impossible to look away.
Setting this apart is how creative the artwork gets. It's one thing to say that two people are riding around together in one mind, but it's another to show it. The images blend together, like tracking on a VHS tape, flipping from one perspective to another. You find yourself questioning which one of these people deserves to live, which is a chilling thought. While all the comics on this list are scary in some shape or fashion, none of them scare me the way Come Into Me does.

Ballydine set for tilt at BetVictor Rehearsal Chase
Charlie Longsdon is eyeing a crack at the BetVictor Rehearsal Chase at Newcastle on December 1 for Ballydine.
The eight-year-old has not been seen since winning at Sandown in February, with Longsdon and owner Alan Halsall hoping he can progress into a Grand National contender.
"He will go to the Rehearsal Chase. He is fine. He had a couple of problems at the end of last season, but he is three-quarters fit and will be ready to roll in just under a month's time," said Longsdon.
"He has been a lovely horse. If it is slow ground at Newcastle, he will be an interesting runner. I'd like to think if we were really lucky that he could be a Grand National-type horse in the spring."
Monty's Award is also owned by Halsall and the EBF Final in March is already under consideration after he won at Worcester last month.
Longsdon said: "We will take our time with him. That race had been the plan the whole way through. He is quite quirky and he has his issues.
"We thought the world of him. I don't think he will be as good as we thought he would be because of his little problems, but he is going the right way.
"I might try to get him qualified for the EBF Final, then give him a break and bring him back for that."

How to Stop Worrying About Your Los Angeles Criminal Case
This is probably one of the biggest effects of a criminal case in Los Angeles or anywhere. When you're charged, you're facing jail or prison time, when your reputation is on the line, when you may have to go to a jury trial, you can't stop worrying.
When you're waiting to go to court, face the judge — there's that confusion and there's that not knowing what's going on — it's a loss of control that people just really can't deal with and they worry about it constantly. It's very difficult to get it out of their mind.
Retain a Seasoned Criminal Lawyer
I think the first thing that you can do to try to stop worrying is figure out what the parameters are of your case.
Part of doing that, obviously, is hiring a seasoned criminal defense attorney, someone like me, who's been doing it almost 30 years and has seen a lot, seen how the process has worked in different scenarios.
So, when you hire somebody like me, that's going to start to take away some of the worry because you're going to see what you're really facing.
In other words, what's the worst thing that could happen? Then once you look at:
- what the worst thing that could happen is,
- you also look at what the best thing is that could happen, and
- then you start to break down and assess what you can do to try to minimize that worst thing from happening.
Develop a Defense Strategy
Once you do that and once you really get a feel for the case, then your worry will start to ease-up, because once you get information and you understand what's going on with your case, once you have the cold hard impartial facts, then you can really start to begin to:
- (1) build your defense; and
- (2) start to take control of your case and make moves that put you in the best possible position.
That's one of the things that I do. We sit down and go over everything step-by-step. I encourage you to give me a cold impartial run-down of the facts. Almost do it from the other side's point of view. That way I can really assess it for you.
What a lot of people try to do is minimize things. They try to make it look as though they didn't do anything wrong. They only give me the details and facts that are favorable to them.
That's fine, but you also need to give the details and facts that might not be favorable to you. In other words, why were you arrested? Why were you charged? Why is the other side saying you're doing certain thing?
Placing You In Best Possible Position
Because all of that information is going to come out eventually. I might as well have it right from the beginning and then that way, I could put you in the best possible position and I can do everything possible to get you the result that you must have.
So, my suggestion is, if you want to stop worrying, pick up the phone. Set up a meeting with Ron Hedding. Let's sit down and talk about everything.
I think once we lay out everything on the table, once you get an idea of what you're facing and once you know what the plan is moving forward to get you the best result, that is going to cut down your worry significantly.
We can also talk about other strategies that I use in cases just like yours. Pick up the phone. Set up the meeting and I stand at the ready to help you.
Hedding Law Firm is a criminal defense law firm located in Los Angeles County at 16000 Ventura Blvd #1208 Encino, CA 91436.

Are you in the market for a new 2-in-1 Lenovo Flex or Yoga laptop, but feel confused about which series to choose? Worry no more, this comprehensive and handy guide will help you identify the key differences and similarities between Lenovo Yoga and Lenovo Flex to help you decide on the best laptop for your business, family, and for you.
For starters, it is crucial to understand that Lenovo has different laptop categories, including the larger ThinkPad and IdeaPad. The Idea Pad and ThinkPad fall into a wide range of 2-in-1 or hybrid models, which functions both as laptops and tablets, namely Yoga and Flex laptops. The Yoga models are categorized under ThinkPad while Flex series are marketed under the Idea Pad line. However, Flex laptops tend to be more similar, but are quite cheaper than their Yoga counterparts.
Read on and understand how Lenovo Flex vs Yoga compare.
Lenovo Flex
Lenovo Yoga
Similarities between Lenovo Flex and Yoga
As mentioned earlier, both Flex and Yoga models are hybrid laptops, also known as 2-in-1s, since they can be used as either a standalone tablet or a laptop. This versatile hybrid design is specially made to offer the conveniences of a tablet and a touch screen for laptop users as well as a keyboard, PC operating system, and other laptop features to tablet enthusiasts.
Unlike other Lenovo models, these two have distinctive features which include:
Touch Screen
Both Yoga and Flex Lenovo series have touchscreens built with a laptop-like lid with patented hinges that can flip between 180 and 360 degrees from the keyboard to achieve the tablet-style design.
Both laptop series have physical keyboards built into the laptops and cannot be entirely detached.
PC Operating Software (OS)
These 2-in-1s laptops are built to do more than normal tablets because they have a full-fledged PC OS like Windows 10 that runs both in PC programs and in mobile-style apps.
Processing power
Both Flex and Yoga have laptop-grade processors, which are fast, allowing them to multi-task and even handle advanced tasks, unlike typical tablets. Moreover, their large form factor, including batteries, ports, and cooling options, add to their higher computing power similar to that of high-end laptops. This makes them ideal for home and office use.
Viewing Modes
Both series have multiple ways to engage, including laptop mode, stand mode, tent mode as well as the tablet mode making them an excellent choice for families. Each mode works perfectly for specific activities and to serve a different need.
The classic laptop mode keeps both the screen and keyboard connected to resemble a laptop for maximum productivity.
The tablet mode is designed for those times when you want to have extra mobility and fun, for example, web surfing, live streaming, social media, gaming, artwork, and many more. It's pretty easy to switch your laptop into tablet mode. You just have to flip and fold the screen, and once the keyboard deactivates, you can go beyond 180 degrees.
Stand mode is most preferred when you want a convenient display and the ultimate touch experience. The laptops have hinges designed to flip the screen around to face forward up to about 300 degrees while hanging the keyboard on the back. With the keyboard out of sight, this mode gives you a more elegant frame and stand for the content and images you want to view.
Moreover, this mode is ideal for watching movies and videos or even going through magazines or books and can also be helpful in the kitchen, although the keyboard might get wet or dirty.
Tent mode is the perfect mode for the kitchen when cooking as well as gaming since the edges don't have ports, so it less likely to get the vital parts wet in case of spills. Additionally, you can look up recipes pretty easily while keeping the laptop clean, for example, with the Yoga 2 Pro. It comes with voice control capabilities and motion-enabled webcam. These features even allow you to go to the next step in a recipe using voice command or gestures without unnecessary touching.
Differences between Lenovo Flex and Yoga
Lenovo Flex
If you are looking for an affordable Lenovo laptop, the Flex line perfectly fits into tight budgets. Lenovo Flex laptops are all-purpose 2-in-1s that are thin, light, and foldable. 2-in-1s have features of both tablets and laptops to give you the best of both.
Available either in 14 or 15 inches, the latest Flex series Flex 5 comes with premium features including Nvidia graphics to enhance your Windows experience by offering crisp images, high-definition and smooth video, increased performance as well as an improved 3D user interface. Also, the series feature 4K display for detailed and sharper pictures.
Although Flex laptops series are not as light, thin or good-looking, they boast a slim body and lightweight that match their size. Their thick profile is an added advantage that allows you to get internal hard drive storage of up to 1 TB and full-sized Ethernet and HDMI ports. On the downside, Flex laptops don't offer full HD resolution, so they may not have the best visuals even at close range.
Overall, the Flex Laptops series come at incredibly competitive prices and ultimately gives you value for your money.
Lenovo Yoga
Lenovo Yoga laptops are premium 2-in-1s hybrids filled with super attractive and high-quality series. And as the name implies, Yoga line is extra flexible thanks to their ability to achieve multiple gymnastic positions, thanks to the patented 360-degree dual-hinge spin design. As such, the keyboards can flip to 360 degrees around the hinged screen and use it as a tablet.
Another incredible thing with this Lenovo Yoga line is they come in a collection of different series. The bigger the series number, the more expensive, more powerful, and the higher the performance. They range from the most affordable Yoga 500 series to the premium 900 series.
Besides that, the laptops come with a 10-point capacitive touchscreen along with an ultra-thin profile and functionalities of an Ultrabook, while also bringing the viewing experience closer to the user using stand or tent monitor mode. The slim design and low weight make them portable and easy to store, while the watchband hinge brings out a luxury appearance.
This laptop series is perfect for messaging, editing, office tasks, or even multi-tasking as they come integrated with Lenovo Transition presentation application. The software is designed to help you pre-set which app to launch in full-window automatically and which ones not to when you tilt the gadget.
Also, Yoga laptops come with Lenovo's Motion Control that detects simple gestures. When activated, you just have to swipe your hand to the right or left.
Lenovo Flex vs. Lenovo Yoga: Which One is the best?
Both Yoga and Flex models are industry-leading 2-in-1 laptops whose capabilities and impressive features are breathtaking. Both models boast incredible design, versatility, and flexibility, making them ideal for office work and multi-tasking.
But Lenovo Flex can smoothly perform different tasks, and it relatively affordable. On the other hand, Lenovo Yoga laptops are more advanced with a contemporary design and vibrant display giving you a chic and trendy look, although it is quite costly.
So if you are looking for a fashionable laptop model, you cannot go wrong with the Yoga series, but if you want a high performance and speedy machine, Lenovo Flex is the best choice.

175 apartments planned Downtown south of FedExForum
Construction documents show that the planned Patterson Flats apartments in Downtown Memphis will cost more than $14.5 million to build.
A Nashville developer filed for a construction permit Friday to fill an entire block — east of the South Main Historic District and south of FedExForum — with 175 apartments.
Elmington Capital Group, doing business as ECG Patterson Development LLC, plans to build Patterson Flats. Elmington built Crescent Bluff Apartments at the northeast corner of Florida and Crump Boulevard.
The 3.7-acre Patterson Flats will be bordered by G. E. Patterson on the south, Butler on the north, Abel on the west and Hernando on the east.
To make room for four buildings and parking, three older buildings are to be demolished.
But construction will not start immediately; the developer has not yet purchased the property. One of the existing property owners, James Laycook, said Monday that once the sale is completed, he will be given 90 days to remove his business, Laycook Products Co., from the site at 259 E. Butler.
Laycook Products rebuilds clutches used in automobiles and heavy trucks, and also rebuilds friction components for drag-lines.

One week left til game time. Here is the third and final player-character for our impending game of Sorcerer. Setting: Casablanca 1940. This is pretty much all Ry's own work. He also gave me a long list of Serge's family members, colleagues and acquaintances, as well as an idea for a first in-game scene involving… well, you'll see! Thanks Ry!
Serge Denis Molière
Serge is a great big fire marshall, captain of one of the larger fire halls in the city. He has a well-deserved reputation for being a tireless hero and hard worker, putting the safety of children before any other concern.
Several months ago, Serge was trapped in a partially-collapsed building, and despite his prodigious strength was unable to save two young children that he had been leading to safety. Near death from smoke inhalation, Serge spotted a rat running impossibly across a pane of glass and escaping through a tiny hole in the wall. The rat was a part of the demon Tachyorychtes, and the thoughts would eat at Serge's mind for the following few months, when he struck a bargain with a German doctor by the name of von Braun.
The rat/demon has abilities that help Serge to rescue people from burning buildings: it confers the ability to "see" structural strength, material stresses and weak points. Its Need is to see beautiful things destroyed (in fire or otherwise).
Demon: Tachyorychtes, the Rat.
Wife: Anna Molière (née Godechaux)
Serge is Catholic. His wife Anna has converted to Catholicism and attends church with him and takes communion.
A few weeks after binding the rat Tachyorychtes ('Tack'), Serge was asked by his Jewish in-laws to help them fix something at their bookshop, and to bring his tools. Naturally, Serge agreed, like any good son-in-law, although he puzzled at their insistence that he come alone on a particular Saturday afternoon.
When Serge arrived he found most of the Godechaux men were gathered. Serge was asked to help make sure that nothing was damaged as the family set to clearing out "an old unused back room in the basement."
Despite the lies, the intent of the enterprise was clear: to open up a new wall in the basement of the Godechaux bookstore. Expanding Jewish businesses was already banned in Casablanca by French decree, and while Serge found the law disturbing he was angry at his father-in-law for drawing him into something illegal.
Nevertheless, Serge carefully inspected the structural integrity of the house, and determined that opening up the new wall was probably safe. Always cautious when working with civilians, he sent the various Godechaux kin out of the house so he could get to work.
Serge used Tack's conferred materials sight to discern where the weak spot was, and realized one area was particularly vulnerable to being struck. What Serge didn't realize was that he was aiming straight at the entrance to a prison that had been Containing a powerful demon.
An inky blackness leapt from the hole, and the room grew dark. Serge fell to the ground, disoriented, and tried to get his bearings, looking for the light of the door upstairs. When he looked to that light, he saw something cross his field of vision – something like a large pile of rope suddenly uncoiling as if the other end was tied to a cannonball. When Serge tried to stand, he felt something heavy on his back, and when he tried to look he briefly saw something – again, like a rope but with hooks protruding from it, which faintly glowed red, like embers. Serge then blacked out.
The next thing Serge heard was his brother-in-law, Denis, calling to ask if he was alright. Serge picked himself up and saw that a corridor, several feet long, had yawned behind the spot he struck. The stone walls appeared to be the foundations – or even the first floor – of a much older construction. After this discovery, completing the tunnel to the adjacent building was trivial, and Serge went home scraped and exhausted but also disgusted with himself. Serge resolved to speak to the Doctor von Braun first thing in the morning.
* * *
Ry originally gave me a much more explosive kicker, but later decided that we should save the good part for in-game. Can't wait 🙂 -Johnny 0.
GM's Post Script: Animated-Object Demons
The rope demon poses an interesting question: how do you spec an animated-object demon in game terms? I first browsed the demon abilities for one that would allow a demon to animate an object. The rulebook explicitly states that the ability Warp can not confer animation, and an Object demon with the Travel ability just relocates when nobody's looking, the way your car keys seem to do. Then I found an answer on The Forge:
"I'd go with Inconspicuous [Type,] with the specific limitations about abilities of Passers (i.e. no conferring to others). You, um, do remember that in The Sorcerer's Soul, I'm pretty clear that the demon Types are customizable and blend-able, right?" -Ron Edwards, Dec.10 2002

There are trillions of bacteria living in our intestines, collectively known as the "gut microbiome," and they do everything from influence gene expression, to talking to your brain and affecting your weight.
Evidence continues to emerge on how the diversity and types of bacteria in the gut contribute to autoimmune disease, obesity, diabetes, insulin resistance, Alzheimer's, IBS and more. These conditions, whose contributing factors are complicated, may simply be made better or worse by a person's diet (1,2,3,4).
So as diabetes care and education specialists, how can we promote weight loss, decrease risks of depression and help manage blood glucose all at once? Fiber!

Benllech, Anglesey
- Visit website
Please mention you found
us on The Good Dog Guide
- Please be careful of the incoming tides
A lovely beach, that has it's own Dog Friendly area - just over the rocks. Personally I prefer this part of the beach. At high tide, you have to walk over the cliff tops and the beach at this time is small. At lower tide you can walk along the main beach, but please keep to the cliff edge and keep your dog on a lead until you reach the rock break.
At very low tide, you can walk along the beach to Red Wharf bay - you may get wet feet - and please be careful of the incoming tides etc. Alternatively take the footpath through St. David's Camp site.
There is also a lovely circular walk from Benllech about 4 miles longhttp://www.walksfromcaravans.co.uk/html/benllech_circular.shtml
Contact Benllech, Anglesey
"Only the immediate front of beach is for families, from the 1st line of rocks dogs can be free right up to Red Wharf Bay, The Ship Inn, dogs paradise here!!, you also have the coastal path to walk on with the dogs- a good break for all"

The Challenge
Children of Uganda (COU) is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit with a longstanding and successful history of educating and empowering women, children and communities in Uganda. Their mission is to create sustainability for entire families and communities beyond what just individual child sponsorship offers; they empower communities to unlock the chains of poverty.
Ugandan children and women have the odds stacked against them, and still need support from sponsors, but in a different sort of way.
While COU registered as a non-profit in 1995, they had been creating partnerships between Ugandans and sponsors around the globe long before then. And while they've been doing important work, they weren't sure how to talk about the work that they do, or how to encourage more sponsors to join them in their mission of assisting with hand ups, rather than hand outs.
A big part of the disconnect they felt between the life-changing work that they do and the way they represent themselves was present on their website, but even more so in their messaging.
Here's what their website looked like when we first partnered up:

Turns out we have a random blonde wig to thank for the gift that has become Drew Droege's endlessly quirky, sweetly sardonic online incarnation of Chloe Sevigny. Although to be fair, his rendition of the indie actress has about as much to do with the real Chloe as a High Heels Purse actually does with fashion.
And yet that hasn't stopped his web-series from becoming one of the most popular, hilarious and inspired originals currently streaming on a computer near you.
PopWrap: Where did this strain of Chloe Sevigny come from?
Drew Droege: It just came from having a blonde wig for another project and thinking it made me look like Chloe Sevigny – now this was before "Brown Bunny" and all the other stuff. So I started performing it on stage and the more I did it, the more of an original character she became.
PW: Right, your Chloe is more of a celebration of the aggressively indie lifestyle than anything else.
Drew: Exactly.
PW: How did the videos come into play?
Drew: My friend Jim [Hansen] wanted to make the videos, and we did them for fun. It was never anything we thought would be a hit. Or something that people would watch.
PW: Oh, but they do — when did you realize that they'd caught on?
Drew: We did the first round of them last in December and there wasn't much attention. And then around April, in the span of one week, they were suddenly everywhere. I was getting friend requests on Facebook from people who were quoting me in their status updates. It was weird how fast it happened.
PW: Did that make you wonder if Chloe Sevigny might actually see the videos?
Drew: Well apparently she's told people that she has a thin skin, so she's afraid to watch them, but I really do like her. The characters you have the most fun playing are the ones you really like.
PW: What about Natasha Lyonne or any of the other celebs you namecheck?
Drew: [laughs] Oh my god, apparently [Natasha] i a big fan of the videos, and [joking about her Hepatitis is] the one thing I felt bad about because she really does have it – but I've heard she likes them, so I don't need to jump right into the apology if we ever meet I guess.
PW: What about the random designers or products you talk about — do you have a Chloe journal or something?
Drew: [laughs] I keep a list for whenever I hear a funny actors name of designer. A lot of the fashion designers friends will email me about, like, "I just saw so-and-so in New York." More times than not, it's just a funny sounding name.
PW: What about the clothes themselves, like the high heel purse?
Drew: Both the high heel purse and wrist hat actually came from seeing a girl at some douchey holiday party carrying a high heel shoe under her arm on a string of pearls. It was like The Emperor Has New Clothes – how is that even functional? It's not even attractive. Living in LA is great for that, it's just utterly ridiculous all the time.
PW: Do you have a particular favorite video?
Drew: Everytime I finish a video, I think that's the one where we'll jump the shark. It's the one that's nowhere near as good as the others. And I don't typically like the videos until Jim edits them. I thought the Toast one was ridiculous, but now it might be my favorite.
PW: What do you love about working online?
Drew: I would never be able to ever play Chloe in any other medium – the internet allows you to be endlessly creative in really bold ways. It's sort of like, "believe this for three minutes" and people do. It's a great platform to express yourself.
