Beyonce, Madonna and even Ella Fitzgerald have performed at the Super Bowl. But who was the best?
It could be argued that the Super Bowl's half-time performances are more famous than the American football game itself. As a stream of a-listers take to the NRG stadium to entertain fans in the arena and across the globe, the slot is recognised as a landmark moment in an artist's career. As Lady Gaga takes to the stage to perform as 2017's main headliner, we have recaptured the finest moments in Super Bowl's musical history.
Global superstar Prince knocked the socks off viewers around the world as he made arguably the best performance in Super Bowl half-time history. The 12-minute set, boasting a spellbinding rendition of Purple Rain in torrential rain, as well as the more surprising performance of Foo Fighter's Best of You, incorporated questionable guitar movements, bell-bottomed trousers and a catalogue of hits with magisterial aplomb.
The late star's half-time performance in 1993 changed the course of Super Bowl history. In a bid to revive the event's flailing ratings, Jackson became the first hitmaker to have his half-time performance to be broadcast in its entirety. The set, which included the likes of Billie Jean, Black or White, and Jam, made ratings records as it became the first Superbowl in which ratings increased during the halves of the game.
Queen Bey's performance garnered more than 299,000 tweets per minute, making it the second-most tweeted moment in the micro-blogging site's history at the time. As well as making a show-stopping performance with her Destiny's Child bandmates Kelly and Michelle, all eyes were on the star as she made the Black Power salute with her battalion of dancers, dressed as Black Panthers, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the movement.
Just months after 9/11, Bono and his bandmates made an emotional half-time show, paying tribute to the victims of the terrorist attack. As a screen behind the band scrolled through the names of all the Americans who died on September 11, accompanied by a spellbinding performance of Where The Streets Have No Name, the band's show is regarded as the most poignant Super Bowl performance of all time.
Fitzgerald brought the first brush with A-list stardom to the Super Bowl in 1972. Performing a show-stopping rendition of Mack the Knife, the show is confined to fans' memories who were said to be awed by the unrecorded event.
This show gained traction for the zany verve of Steven Tyler's Walk This Way performance, and its star-studded roster of performers including Britney Spears, Missy Elliot and Mary J Blige. As Nelly joined in to cement the hip hop glitz of the night, the event became an iconic snapshot of early noughties pop culture.
After Janet Jackson's 'Nipplegate', broadcasters were reluctant to invite a female solo performer to the stage. Cue Madonna in Super Bowl XLVI, providing a slightly cautious yet spellbinding performance of her hits from Vogue to 2002's Music. The slot was not without controversy, however, as Madge was fined $1.5m ($1.2m) for sticking up her middle finger when she joined the stage as a guest performer.
This show attracted the largest audience in Bowl history, with an audience of 115.3 million viewers. Mars was joined by Beyonce and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and made history as the youngest ever artist to take the slot. The show, directed by Hamish Hamilton, received two Primetime Emmy nominations.
The Supremes queen brought the half-time slot to life back in 1996. Arriving on stage in a crane made of sparklers, Ross was joined by a cohort of red-clad dancers before expressing her legendary diva status in a stage exit by helicopter. "Oh my, here comes my ride!" the star shouted as she left in the chopper.
They may have given the performance of their lives, but Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake's slot will not be remembered for its artistry. In one of the most notorious wardrobe malfunctions of all time, Timberlake went to rip off part of Jackson's leather bodice to reveal her bra, but ended up flashing her right breast to the entire stadium, and much of the world. Heavy fines were levied in response to the stunt, and YouTube creator Jawed Karim cited the performance as the inspiration behind him creating the video-sharing monolith.

Kids Chance of Montana on Tuesday received a $25,000 donation from Victory Insurance to help grow the number of scholarships it offers to children whose parents have been killed or seriously injured on the job.
Established in 2017, the Montana nonprofit recently joined a coalition of states that partner with Kids Chance of America to provide educational opportunities for students who’ve lost a parent or guardian at work.
Between 2011 and 2016, Van Nice said, 213 workers died on the job in Montana. In addition, Montana saw roughly 149 severe traumatic injuries from 2013 to 2014.
“We believe that by investing in the future of children impacted by these work-related traumas, we can provide them with the tools necessary to be successful in the workplace, so they can make a difference in their lives and communities,” he said.
The program’s contributors include Walmart, Northwestern Energy, Midland Claims and Browning, Kaleczyz, Berry & Hoven. Numerous private donations have also been received, and Victory Insurance recently donated $25,000 to the state chapter’s scholarship fund.

Thus, the boy in Calgary was courageous and rather than saying, “You could have gotten yourself hurt,” we should applaud him for acting as he did in lieu of the knowledge that he could have been harmed. The “it’s not my business” mentality and “I don’t want to suffer harm” is what has allowed perpetrators to continue to have victims. But not only did this boy show courage, he also showed love. He showed love not only to the potential victim, but also to the victimizer.
Certainly harming anyone from a violent attack takes an act of love. When putting one’s own life in the way to protect someone else, love, even if a modicum of love, is displayed. Yet, the perpetrator is also shown love. What if the boy with the knife had harmed or even killed his victim? He would face a lifetime of guilt, not to mention legal repercussions. His family would have to live with what he did. His future would be ruined. In stopping him from making a mistake, a permanent mistake, the boy displayed love to the perpetrator, even though he put his own life in harm’s way. For this, the boy should be rewarded and not condemned.
The individual virtues are all distinct, but they are not separate. That is, you cannot have love without justice, you cannot have courage without temperance, you cannot have hope without faith, and so on. You cannot have any of the virtues without simultaneously having them all. Thus, if we rob a person of one virtue, we have robbed that person of them all. In robbing this young man of courage, we are teaching him that none of the virtues matter, that only personal peace and affluence matter. The only things that matter are the material elements of the world; so long as I can make money and not have my own safety threatened, nothing else matters.
Within our souls we are Elijahs and we feel the coming of God’s voice. We suffer under the wind of wrath, of being angry when we see injustice; but the voice is not found in the wind. We tremble with anger at the lack of charity in our world, but God is not found in our trembling. We burn with hatred towards cowardice; but we see nothing within our burning. These are our natural emotions towards things we naturally know are wrong, but lack knowledge as to why they are wrong. Unlike Elijah we never wait around to see what is next, but instead play our music loudly and drown out the reality of our existence, not wanting to contemplate it or deal with it.
If we were to stay, if we were to explore why we are so angry at injustice, we would begin to hear the still small voice of God. We would hear that voice cry out, “To hell with personal peace! To hell with affluence! Live a full life, live a virtuous life!” We would discover an inner-virtue, one that did not care for our material gains.
Sadly, we live in a society that sees no benefit to the virtues because they promise neither health nor wealth. While one can be rich and healthy and still be virtuous, being virtuous does not promise everyone such a life. Sometimes doing the right thing will require of you a great sacrifice, sometimes it will require your life. Think of the brave young student in Tienamen Square. “Brave.” That word is thrown around too often, typically to describe people who have come out with viewpoints that are often accepted by the intellectual elite of a certain group. There is no risk of a personal cost in stating those beliefs, only a promotion. Such people are no more brave than a man putting in an application for a job and saying he loves the company he’s applying for. No, this student in Tienamen Square was truly brave. When the tanks rolled in, he stood before them and made them stop…and then he walked up the tank.
He did the right thing. He stood for justice (any stand against tyranny is a stand for justice; take note of that those who despise Edward Snowden). In standing for justice he also displayed his love for his entire country. This came at a great risk as he actually put his life on the line for making a stand. Doing the right thing can sometimes get you killed, but it is better to die in pursuit of the Good than to die pursuing nothing. We all die, it is inevitable. How we live makes all the difference, and if we live for ourselves and our material gains, then our deaths will truly be pointless, much like our lives.
We are raising a generation that will go along with the rules so long as those rules make them money and gives them safety. We are raising a generation that would sooner salute a dictator if it gave them protection and prosperity than to defy him and die. I think of the picture of a Nazi rally that recently came up where everyone was giving the Nazi salute, except for one man who stood with his arms folded and gave a cynic’s scowl. It summarizes this entire post; that man had virtue and put his life on the line to display it. He could have been killed for his actions, but he chose to do what was right over what was safe, because the two are sometimes mutually exclusive.
And so we come back to our example of Calgary. The point stopped a potential stabbing. He put his life at risk by doing what was right and the school took the opportunity to cast aside virtue and embrace personal peace. In the end, such a society cannot exist. A society of weak-willed people is a society that will be ruled by the strong, that any dictator can take over. All dictators are the end result of a society when it chooses to abandon virtue, because dictators are the embodiment of vice. And yet, deep down in the weak-willed people will cry a tiny voice that, as the oppression becomes greater, grows louder and louder until it becomes a shout. That shout is then put into actions and those actions beget true liberty through virtue, though it comes at a high cost. It is not too late in our society to begin a return to virtue; our society is not dead yet, it has not fully abandoned virtue, there is still time to turn back to virtue and to live.

The three trumpet valves symbolise the crucial role played by brass instruments in Honegger's orchestral works. Together with the locomotive wheel and compressor, the piano keyboard and the score, they evoke Honegger's famous composition about a locomotive.
With his symphonic work 'Pacific 231', Honegger created a musical monument to this wonder of technology. The wheel symbolises rhythm, power and motion, and the compressor stands for technology mastering power. The two elements conjure up the composition's recurrent themes of acceleration and deceleration.
Typical parts of the score of 'Pacific 231' are reproduced. The musical notation reflects an intense rhythmic texture and evokes both the composer as creator and the typical sound of 'Pacific 231'.
The piano is the composer's work instrument. Together with the trumpet valves, the piano keyboard represents two fundamental principles of Honegger's composition: rhythm as a vital, defining structure and harmony, which aims at immediate effect.
The portrait on the front of the 20-franc note shows Arthur Honegger (1892-1955), one of the 20th century's greatest composers. The broad-ranging work of this Swiss composer includes two operas, five symphonies, several orchestral works, various dramatic oratorios and a large body of chamber music. In addition to his famous symphony for the steam locomotive 'Pacific 231' (the elements on the reverse of the banknote refer to this work), Honegger wrote extensively in a lighter vein for the ballet, stage and film. The strict formalism and clarity of his musical idiom, with which he hoped to reach a very wide audience, is an important bridge between German and French-speaking culture.

Tuesday, April 6, 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. Communicating to Connect. Albert Campbell Collegiate, 1550 Sandhurst Circle, Scarborough, ON 416-396-6684 The second in a series of parenting workshops run by the Albert Campbell Collegiate Parent Council.
Description: We communicate with our children (and others) in two ways: speaking and listening. The first workshop held in the fall, Listening with Empathy, focussed on connecting with our children by listening to their feelings. The challenge is to show them that even if we don't agree with their desires and opinions, we can still hear and understand their feelings. This workshop, Communicating to Connect, will explore effective and ineffective methods of speaking with our children (and all loved ones).
Thursday, April 15, 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. Listening with Empathy Lester Pearson Collegiate, 150 Tapscott Road, Scarborough, ON 416-396-5892 A communication workshop for parents offered by the Toronto District School Board trustee for Ward 21 (Scarborough-Rouge River).
Description: We generally want to make helpful remarks to our children when they express a concern - responses that will open and encourage communication. Yet, well-intentioned comments often have the opposite effect. This workshop will help you choose what to say when you need to connect with your child. You will learn to ~ Identify and analyze accepting and rejecting responses; ~ Practice paraphrasing and empathic listening; ~ Develop skills in value clarification; ~ Discover how to communicate helpfully with troubled people.
Description: This is the Toronto launch of the anthology From Sinai to the Shtetl and Beyond: Where Is Home for the Jewish Writer? published for the Hamilton Jewish Literary Festival in June 2009. The anthology is edited by Lil Blume and Ellen Jaffe. Lil will be among the readers.
Wednesday, May 5, 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. Communicating to Connect. Lester Pearson Collegiate, 150 Tapscott Road, Scarborough, ON 416-396-5892 A communication workshop for parents in Ward 21 (Scarborough-Rouge River) of the Toronto District School Board offered by their trustee, Shaun Chen. See above.
Moms: When you were born: My attitudes and feelings towards being a mother – what I thought being a good mother meant then. Is it different from what I think now?
Kids: When I was little - what I remember about our relationship from when I was 0 to 12. or What I think being a good mother means. What I think a good mother should do.
Mom: What is hard about being my daughter’s mother.
Daughter: What is hard about being my mother’s daughter.
Location: Cabbagetown, Toronto. Directions provided to participants. Easy access via TTC and DVP.
RSVP: Please reply via the feedback link on the left. Space is limited.
Monday, May 10, 1:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. Writing Family Stories and Memoirs. Ottawa. A workshop for Activie Jewish Adults 50+. Contact me for information about attending this in Ottawa.
Description: Stories passed from one generation to the next carry the values, culture, and unique mythology of that family. Knowing our family's stories solidifies our sense of belonging. If you have been thinking of recording your family stories or turning genealogical data into stories, then this workshop is for you. Writer and editor, Lil Blume, will give you ideas for reviving memories and writing and organizing your family story project. Come prepared to do some writing and storytelling.
• What stories and memories should I choose?
• How do I organize this story?
• What do I say about scandals and secrets?
• What has to be true? What can I make up?
• How do I handle multiple points of view and arguments about what happened?
Participants have many issues in common and are guided to finding the best answers for their individual projects. We write and share and people leave with renewed commitment to getting these important stories into an exciting and accessible format. First time writers are welcome.
Description: "Leading the Way," the theme of CCWESTT 2010, can best be achieved by setting goals and moving towards them, yet few people actually set goals and write them down. When this workshop was presented at CCWESTT 2008, participants expressed ambivalence and fear in relation to personal and career goal-setting. Is there a genderized component to goal-setting? Is goal-setting necessary for success? What are the factors that make setting and achieving goals so difficult?
Understanding our attitudes towards goal-setting will strengthen our ability to set goals and work towards achieving them.

A 32-foot-tall sign of the Navajo Indian God of Wealth and Fertility stands in front of the former Krazy Kokopelli Trading Post (now a coffee shop and Mexican restaurant).
I-17 exit 287, then drive south one block on Finnie Flat Rd. On the left.
The Trading Post has been reappropriated as a Starbucks and Mexican restaurant, but Kokopelli still proudly plays his flute out front.
Great photo op and fun to see. It's so tall! The trading post is no longer there, but it's still worth the stop.
It is still well maintained and still holding the title of World's Largest Kokopelli!
The World's Largest Kokopelli has been seriously outdone by the drive-thru Starbucks' sign. Iamgros and I were disappointed by the amount of fast food restaurants littering our photograph, but the guy selling polyester 420 blankets in the parking lot made it up to us by offering a king size howling wolf throw at half price. I guess in today's world Starbucks IS the new trading post.
The world's largest Kokopelli now stands in front of a tiny strip mall that houses a drive-thru Starbucks and a Verizon wireless store. The Kokopelli gift shop is still there, and the Kokopelli statue was freshly painted.

After-school care that is open until 7pm and places reserved for children in an emergency situation are just two of the ideas that could be trialled as the federal government looks at creative ways to increase access to out of school hours care.
Fairfax Media revealed this week some areas of Sydney are facing a critical shortage in after-school care, with significant waiting lists at some schools.
The government will begin a series of 12-month trials this month, with 60 providers across Australia being offered support to trial innovative approaches to out of school care.
Meanwhile, the Coalition has pledged to establish a Productivity Commission inquiry into childcare that would include after-school care, if elected.
The organisations picked for the trial will gather results, with the assistance of researchers, and share their findings with the government and the sector.
National Out of School Hours Services Association chairwoman Robyn Monro Miller said the initiative would be more effective than a consultant's report could be.
''Nobody ever picks up a report but they learn from concrete examples and that's what drives innovation,'' she said.
Early Childhood and Childcare Minister Kate Ellis said the initiative was about making out of school hours care more responsive to the needs of modern families.
"Parents regularly tell me how difficult it is to manage the 3pm pick-up, so outside school hours care is a vital part of giving parents the flexibility they need to stay in the workforce," she said.
The project is part of a $5.5 million initiative by the federal government to trial models of flexible childcare. Providers would receive training from leaders in the field and support from 12 new community co-ordinators.
The opposition spokeswoman for childcare, Sussan Ley, said if the Coalition was elected it would sit down with the states to look at how regulations could be restricting providers' ability to expand.
"Schools and OOSH services are not only struggling to find qualified staff, there's also the issue of enough on-site space and a suitable environment to meet numerous national quality framework rules,'' she said.

Efraim is using Smore newsletters to spread the word online.
We are slowly becoming a more health conscious society. Fortunately some of the things we’ve come to enjoy as part of our daily eating habits turn out to have quite a few health benefits. Who would have guessed that research would reveal that some of the things we enjoy most like coffee and dark chocolate actually have many health benefits? Getting and staying healthy may not be as difficult as we had thought. Some of our favorites are full of antioxidants and flavonoids that make our body healthier as we consume them. Here are five different foods or activities that are easily incorporated into our daily eating or exercising regime. Over time, these can have quite the positive impact on one’s health. For daily health tips that can improve longevity, help you loose weight and help you fight off diabetes and other diseases please continue to read the article below.
Coffee has been a favorite beverage for many years and now it turns out that it offers some pretty significant health benefits. It contains very few calories if served without added milk or sugar, and it has a significant amount of antioxidants. Actually, we are just finding out that coffee has more antioxidants than any other foods. It also helps protect against type 2 diabetes, liver cancer, and helps promote a healthy heart.
Coffee has long been used to help us perk up in the morning and get going. But now some research is suggesting that it is actually good for the brain and it might be useful in preventing Parkinson’s disease. It is also suggested that drinking coffee may offer some protection against developing Alzheimer’s. In moderation, it seems that coffee can help reduce the risk of heart failure with participants in one study demonstrating an 11% lower risk of having heart failure and stroke when compared to those who did not consume the dark, tasty liquid. Some studies have indicated that drinking just two cups of coffee a day can reduce the risk of liver cancer by as much as 40%.
Longevity of life is another health benefit we get from coffee. A New England study indicated that individuals whose ages spanned from 50 to 71 reduced the risk of dying from heart disease, diabetes or other types of health problems. This is not necessarily due to the presence of caffeine, but antioxidants which are useful for fighting off diseases. These positive results are the same for coffee drinkers whether they prefer decaf or regular coffee.
If you are selective about the type of chocolate you purchase, you might be gaining quite a few health benefits. Dark chocolate, made with high content of cocoa has actual nutritional value. For instance, it has fiber, iron, copper, zinc and several other minerals. It’s also loaded with antioxidants and can have more than blueberries or acai berries.
The flavonoids that are in dark chocolate stimulate the endothelium which is the lining inside arteries. When stimulated, they start to produce nitric oxide which causes the arteries to relax. This means lower blood pressure and increased blood flow. Some studies are showing that dark chocolate (made with real cocoa) can help reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. It can also improve brain function because of the increased blood flow to the brain. Cocoa might improve cognitive function for the elderly as well as improving verbal fluency. This may mean it helps prevent Alzheimer’s or dementia.
There have also been a few studies that have shown dark chocolate may reduce insulin levels which means it might be beneficial for diabetics and helping to control blood sugars. Participants who ate dark chocolate for 15 days saw insulin drop by about half. If insulin sensitivity can be controlled, it may be possible to prevent type 2 diabetes. Chocolate might be helpful in controlling insulin levels.
Apple Cider Vinegar has many different uses around the house. Over the last few years research has begun to support that apple cider vinegar does offer several benefits for our health. Perhaps of interest to many people is the fact that apple cider vinegar can help with weight loss efforts. This seems to be due to the fact that vinegar has the effect on certain genes that help the body break down fats. Used along with other weight loss practices like portion control and exercise it can aid in the efforts. It can also help the body control blood sugar levels. In some studies, it has been demonstrated that apple cider vinegar can be as effective as many medicines that are commonly used for controlling blood sugar. The vinegar works in the body’s digestive system and blocks some of the starch from being digested so that it doesn’t’ raise the blood sugar level in the body. When the vinegar is taken with a starchy meal, instead of starches digesting, they become food for the good bacteria found in the gut.
Apple cider vinegar also has some benefits on the outside of the body. Its anti-bacterial properties make it useful for treating acne. It also absorbs the extra oils from the skin. It can be combined with onions and used to improve the appearance of age spots and mixing it with massage oil it can be used to fight cellulite. Since apple cider vinegar contains antiseptic properties, it can be used to fight fungal infections such as a yeast infection or candidiasis.
Another great health benefit from apple cider vinegar is relieving constipation. It works in the body to help produce a bowel movement because of the pectin it contains. Pectin is a water soluble fiber which is beneficial for helping the bowels move. On the other hand, the pectin also helps coat the lining of the colon so that it has a soothing effect and alleviates the symptoms of diarrhea.
Walking is a low impact way to exercise that is good for just about anyone. People of every age and ability will find walking a great way to reap health benefits. Regular walking is beneficial for helping keep your heart and cardiovascular system working properly. This helps greatly reduce the risk of both stroke and heart disease. Because it can help lower “bad” cholesterol, it can help keep blood pressure within normal. Not only does it help prevent heart disease, walking can also help reduce the risk of other diseases like type 2 diabetes and some types of cancer.
Another reason many people engage in walking is to help lose weight or maintain a healthy weight. Walking can help increase muscle tone and mass so that you increase your metabolism and burn more calories doing other daily activities. Walking can also help build strength in your legs, calves, glutes and hamstrings. It is considered to be one of the weight-bearing activities, which means it can help strengthen the bones and protect against osteoporosis.
It may seem backwards, but walking can help you increase your energy levels. Taking a brisk walk is a natural energizer. It increases circulation and oxygen which basically energizes every cell in your body which helps you feel a lot more alert. Getting your stiff joints moving can help relieve muscle tension and you will not feel as sluggish. Taking a quick walk after lunch can boost you just enough to help you have the energy to get through the rest of the day.
Coconut oil has been gaining in popularity as its health benefits become better known. It contains several acids including lauric acid, caprylic acid and antimivrobial lips which have antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal properties. These work together to strengthen the immune system. Once it is ingested, lauric acid is converted by the body into monolaurin which is beneficial to help the body deal effectively with bacteria and viruses that can cause diseases such as influenza, herpes, HIV and cytomegalovirus.
Another health benefit of coconut oil is that is can be useful for helping with weight loss efforts. In the oil there are fatty acids, both short and long chain that help the body take off extra weight. Coconut oil works to increase the metabolic rate because it removes stress son the pancreas. This gives the person more energy and helps burn off the weight.
If you massage coconut oil into your skin it can work as a moisturizer. It works similar to mineral oil, but without the negative side effects. Coconut oil is a natural way to combat aging’s effect on the skin and it can also be an effective treatment for some skin diseases like dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema and other types of skin infections. It contains antioxidants which makes it good to use for preventing degenerative diseases and premature aging.
It is important to note that these health benefits come from moderate consumption of the foods listed. Going overboard on any one item is usually going to lead to health problems over time. Moderation is the key to reaping these benefits and enjoying their positive impact. Overindulgence can often lead to health difficulties rather than offering help.

text: Within the field of strategic management there is increasing awareness of the limitations of rational approaches to decision making. Managing in a climate of continuous change and uncertainty has turned attention to the role of managerial cognition. This volume explores the nature of cognition in organizations and focuses upon: the behaviour and characteristics of top management teams; organizational learning and memory; distributed cognition and information markets; the significance of knowledge management and tacit learning; key competencies such as emotional intelligence, information searching, decision making heuristics, creativity, intuition; and how organizations might be helped to become more cognitively effective.

In New Jersey, the most common type of ant that we find infesting homes is the black carpenter ant (Camponotus pennsylvanicus). This species of Carpenter Ant is large black or black/red insects that excavate wood for living space. This species doesn’t actually ingest wood but they do destroy it. Carpenter Ants can also live in any hollow space i.e. curtain rods, hollow doors, etc. Carpenter Ants prefer dead, damp wood in which to build nests. Thus, it is critical that gutters are cleaned out and not collecting debris (moisture). Because Carpenter Ants can nest anywhere from a hollow concrete block in the basement to roof trusses in the attic, a thorough inspection is critical.
In the State of New Jersey, Carpenter Ants are considered one of the larger ant species. Carpenter Ants have a one segmented petiole in the form a vertical scale and have a faded black coloring. Carpenter Ants come in various sizes but typically are ½” to 3/8” inches.
In the United States, there are several thousand ant species. Ants have three types of castes. Specifically, queens, males and workers. The queen ant produces the eggs for further ant reproduction. Once the queen ant mates, she will shed her wings. Typically, most Carpenter Ant colonies only have one queen per colony. Males on the other hand will also lose their wings and die soon after mating. Workers are comprised of infertile females of many different sizes. Workers ants’ primary responsibilities are to remain in the nest to excavate materials from the nest, cleaning and caring for broods. Because there are so many different species of ants, at time it can be difficult to tell various types of ants apart from one another. With Carpenter Ants, these are the very large black ants. More specifically, they have one node on their waist and very rounded shape top surface.
As previously indicated, there are a lot of species of ants in the Unites States. At times, other ant species may appear to look like Carpenter Ants. You have to perform a closer insect inspection to differentiate if the thorax has an even or uneven profile. If they are not Carpenter Ants, they are not usually ants that are wood destroying. That being the case, proper insect identification is critical prior to determining the best control plan strategy.
Alliance Pest Services has your solution. Alliance will first conduct a thorough inspection of your home and property in an effort to find and eliminate Carpenter Ant nests. The home owner may need to have damaged wood replaced, if possible, to reduce and/or eliminate moisture problems. Eliminating a Carpenter Ant colony is a tuff task.

Call Alliance Pest Services today to solve your Carpenter Ant problems, inspect your home for possible moisture problems that could lead to Carpenter Ants and all your pest control problems.

Initially, Steranko was asked to draw a Western story but said that he wanted to do a romance story instead. He felt that so much of the romance comic book stories were done in the “Jay Scott Pike” style that he wanted to try something radically different, and unlike any other romance story anyone had ever seen!
After penciling and inking the Stan Lee plotted story, Steranko decided he would color it himself. Knowing his color choices were non-traditional for a romance story, he decided to wait to turn the pages in just before the 5pm deadline – by which time it would be too late to change anything! Steranko recollected that Marie Severin thought it was pretty wild, but ultimately let the story pass through as he intended.
And that, my friends is the story that Steranko told me! Unfortunately as I said, I didn’t have anything to record this discussion with since it occurred spur of the moment. But sometimes, those encounters are the best and elicit the most genuine of stories! It was clear from his enthusiasm that Steranko not only enjoyed telling me about his sole romance story, but that he had a great time creating it!
*A big thank you to color guide owner, Matthew Holtzman, as well as Tony Robertson who runs the terrific website, The Drawings of Steranko where the above pages are hosted. If you would like to read “My Heart Broke in Hollywood” it has been reprinted a few times and can be found on a number of websites including True Love Comics Tales which posted it just a few days ago!
