the æsir are the gods of the principal pantheon in old norse religion and norse mythology.the second norse pantheon is the vanir, these two pantheons waged war against each other, resulting in a unified pantheon.in genitival compounds, it takes the form ása-, e.g.in ása-þórr ('thor of the æsir'), besides ás- found in ás-brú 'gods' bridge' (the rainbow), ás-garðr, ás-kunnigr 'gods' kin', ás-liðar 'gods' leader', ás-mogin 'gods' might' (especially of thor), ás-móðr 'divine wrath' etc.landâs 'national god' (patrium numen) is a title of thor, as is allmáttki ás 'almighty god', while it is odin who is 'the' ás.there is also old east norse dialectal *ās-ækia (own: *áss-ekja), i.e.'god ride' (thor riding in his wagon), resulting in the modern swedish word for atmospheric thunder – åska (the form åsekia attested as late as the 17th c.).the feminine form is ásynja (plural ásynjur).the feminine suffix -ynja (proto-norse: -unjō) is known from a few other nouns denoting female animals, such as apynja 'female monkey', vargynja 'she-wolf'.a cognate word for 'goddess' is not attested outside old norse, and a corresponding west germanic word would have been separately derived with the feminine suffixes -inī or -injō.áss is attested in other germanic languages, such as old english ōs (plural ēse), denoting a deity in anglo-saxon paganism, preserved only as a prefix ōs- in personal names (e.g.osborne, oswald) and some place-names, and as the genitive plural ēsa (ēsa gescot and ylfa gescot, 'the shots of anses and of elves', i.e.'elfshot', jaculum divorum et geniorum).in old high german, old dutch and old saxon, the word is only attested in personal and place names, e.g.ansebert, anselm, ansfrid, vihans.the old high german is reconstructed as *ans, plural *ensî.gothic has ans- as reported by jordanes, who wrote in the 6th century ce, presumably a latinized form of actual plural *anseis), as a name for euhemerized semi-divine early gothic rulers.the reconstructed proto-germanic form is *ansuz (plural *ansiwiz).the ansuz rune, ⟨ᚫ⟩, was named after the æsir.*ansuz, itself comes from proto-indo-european *h₂énsus (gen. h₂n̥sóus) 'life force' (cf.avestan aŋhū 'lord; lifetime', ahura 'godhood', sanskrit ásu 'life force', ásura 'demons' ( *h₂n̥suró).it is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- 'to engender' (cf.hittite hass- 'to procreate, give birth', tocharian b ās- 'to produce').while other cultures have had 'elder' and 'younger' families of gods, as with the titans versus the olympians of ancient greece, the æsir and vanir were portrayed as contemporaries.the two clans of gods fought battles, concluded treaties, and exchanged hostages (freyr and freyja are mentioned as hostages).an áss like ullr is almost unknown in the myths, but his name is seen in a lot of geographical names, especially in sweden, and may also appear on the 3rd century thorsberg chape, suggesting that his cult was widespread in prehistoric times.the names of the first three æsir in norse mythology, vili, vé and odin all refer to spiritual or mental state, vili to conscious will or desire, vé to the sacred or numinous and óðr to the manic or ecstatic.the vanir appear to have mainly been connected with cultivation and fertility and the æsir were connected with power and war.in the eddas, however, the word æsir is used for gods in general, while asynjur is used for the goddesses in general.for example, in the poem skírnismál, freyr was called 'prince of the æsir'.in the prose edda, njörðr was introduced as 'the third among the æsir', and among the asynjur, freya is always listed second only to frigg.in surviving tales, the origins of many of the æsir are unexplained.

the æsir are the gods of the principal pantheon in old norse religion and norse mythology.the second norse pantheon is the vanir, these two pantheons waged war against each other, resulting in a unified pantheon.in genitival compounds, it takes the form ása-, e.g.in ása-þórr ('thor of the æsir'), besides ás- found in ás-brú 'gods' bridge' (the rainbow), ás-garðr, ás-kunnigr 'gods' kin', ás-liðar 'gods' leader', ás-mogin 'gods' might' (especially of thor), ás-móðr 'divine wrath' etc.landâs 'national god' (patrium numen) is a title of thor, as is allmáttki ás 'almighty god', while it is odin who is 'the' ás.there is also old east norse dialectal *ās-ækia (own: *áss-ekja), i.e.'god ride' (thor riding in his wagon), resulting in the modern swedish word for atmospheric thunder – åska (the form åsekia attested as late as the 17th c.).the feminine form is ásynja (plural ásynjur).the feminine suffix -ynja (proto-norse: -unjō) is known from a few other nouns denoting female animals, such as apynja 'female monkey', vargynja 'she-wolf'.a cognate word for 'goddess' is not attested outside old norse, and a corresponding west germanic word would have been separately derived with the feminine suffixes -inī or -injō.áss is attested in other germanic languages, such as old english ōs (plural ēse), denoting a deity in anglo-saxon paganism, preserved only as a prefix ōs- in personal names (e.g.osborne, oswald) and some place-names, and as the genitive plural ēsa (ēsa gescot and ylfa gescot, 'the shots of anses and of elves', i.e.'elfshot', jaculum divorum et geniorum).in old high german, old dutch and old saxon, the word is only attested in personal and place names, e.g.ansebert, anselm, ansfrid, vihans.the old high german is reconstructed as *ans, plural *ensî.gothic has ans- as reported by jordanes, who wrote in the 6th century ce, presumably a latinized form of actual plural *anseis), as a name for euhemerized semi-divine early gothic rulers.the reconstructed proto-germanic form is *ansuz (plural *ansiwiz).the ansuz rune, ⟨ᚫ⟩, was named after the æsir.*ansuz, itself comes from proto-indo-european *h₂énsus (gen. h₂n̥sóus) 'life force' (cf.avestan aŋhū 'lord; lifetime', ahura 'godhood', sanskrit ásu 'life force', ásura 'demons' ( *h₂n̥suró).it is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- 'to engender' (cf.hittite hass- 'to procreate, give birth', tocharian b ās- 'to produce').while other cultures have had 'elder' and 'younger' families of gods, as with the titans versus the olympians of ancient greece, the æsir and vanir were portrayed as contemporaries.the two clans of gods fought battles, concluded treaties, and exchanged hostages (freyr and freyja are mentioned as hostages).an áss like ullr is almost unknown in the myths, but his name is seen in a lot of geographical names, especially in sweden, and may also appear on the 3rd century thorsberg chape, suggesting that his cult was widespread in prehistoric times.the names of the first three æsir in norse mythology, vili, vé and odin all refer to spiritual or mental state, vili to conscious will or desire, vé to the sacred or numinous and óðr to the manic or ecstatic.the vanir appear to have mainly been connected with cultivation and fertility and the æsir were connected with power and war.in the eddas, however, the word æsir is used for gods in general, while asynjur is used for the goddesses in general.for example, in the poem skírnismál, freyr was called 'prince of the æsir'.in the prose edda, njörðr was introduced as 'the third among the æsir', and among the asynjur, freya is always listed second only to frigg.in surviving tales, the origins of many of the æsir are unexplained.

the æsir are the gods of the principal pantheon in old norse religion and norse mythology.the second norse pantheon is the vanir, these two pantheons waged war against each other, resulting in a unified pantheon.in genitival compounds, it takes the form ása-, e.g.in ása-þórr ('thor of the æsir'), besides ás- found in ás-brú 'gods' bridge' (the rainbow), ás-garðr, ás-kunnigr 'gods' kin', ás-liðar 'gods' leader', ás-mogin 'gods' might' (especially of thor), ás-móðr 'divine wrath' etc.landâs 'national god' (patrium numen) is a title of thor, as is allmáttki ás 'almighty god', while it is odin who is 'the' ás.there is also old east norse dialectal *ās-ækia (own: *áss-ekja), i.e.'god ride' (thor riding in his wagon), resulting in the modern swedish word for atmospheric thunder – åska (the form åsekia attested as late as the 17th c.).the feminine form is ásynja (plural ásynjur).the feminine suffix -ynja (proto-norse: -unjō) is known from a few other nouns denoting female animals, such as apynja 'female monkey', vargynja 'she-wolf'.a cognate word for 'goddess' is not attested outside old norse, and a corresponding west germanic word would have been separately derived with the feminine suffixes -inī or -injō.áss is attested in other germanic languages, such as old english ōs (plural ēse), denoting a deity in anglo-saxon paganism, preserved only as a prefix ōs- in personal names (e.g.osborne, oswald) and some place-names, and as the genitive plural ēsa (ēsa gescot and ylfa gescot, 'the shots of anses and of elves', i.e.'elfshot', jaculum divorum et geniorum).in old high german, old dutch and old saxon, the word is only attested in personal and place names, e.g.ansebert, anselm, ansfrid, vihans.the old high german is reconstructed as *ans, plural *ensî.gothic has ans- as reported by jordanes, who wrote in the 6th century ce, presumably a latinized form of actual plural *anseis), as a name for euhemerized semi-divine early gothic rulers.the reconstructed proto-germanic form is *ansuz (plural *ansiwiz).the ansuz rune, ⟨ᚫ⟩, was named after the æsir.*ansuz, itself comes from proto-indo-european *h₂énsus (gen. h₂n̥sóus) 'life force' (cf.avestan aŋhū 'lord; lifetime', ahura 'godhood', sanskrit ásu 'life force', ásura 'demons' ( *h₂n̥suró).it is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- 'to engender' (cf.hittite hass- 'to procreate, give birth', tocharian b ās- 'to produce').while other cultures have had 'elder' and 'younger' families of gods, as with the titans versus the olympians of ancient greece, the æsir and vanir were portrayed as contemporaries.the two clans of gods fought battles, concluded treaties, and exchanged hostages (freyr and freyja are mentioned as hostages).an áss like ullr is almost unknown in the myths, but his name is seen in a lot of geographical names, especially in sweden, and may also appear on the 3rd century thorsberg chape, suggesting that his cult was widespread in prehistoric times.the names of the first three æsir in norse mythology, vili, vé and odin all refer to spiritual or mental state, vili to conscious will or desire, vé to the sacred or numinous and óðr to the manic or ecstatic.the vanir appear to have mainly been connected with cultivation and fertility and the æsir were connected with power and war.in the eddas, however, the word æsir is used for gods in general, while asynjur is used for the goddesses in general.for example, in the poem skírnismál, freyr was called 'prince of the æsir'.in the prose edda, njörðr was introduced as 'the third among the æsir', and among the asynjur, freya is always listed second only to frigg.in surviving tales, the origins of many of the æsir are unexplained.

karl kesel (born january 7, 1959, victor, new york) is an american comics writer and inker whose works have primarily been under contract for dc comics.he is a member of periscope studio and is best known for his collaborations with fellow artist tom grummett on the adventures of superman, superboy, and section zero, as well as the first harley quinn comic title.kesel's first work for dc comics appeared in new talent showcase #4 (april 1984).he soon became the inker on tales of the legion of super-heroes — so soon, in fact, that he suspected that he was assigned new talent showcase #8 as a test run to see how well he jelled with tales of the legion penciller terry shoemaker.kesel was discouraged that inks which looked smooth and clear on his original pages appeared clunky in the printed comics, and with some guidance from dick giordano he studied how to draw in a way that would appear better on the printed page.kesel worked on the lighthearted 'mazing man series, as well as providing inks over the pencils of george pérez on history of the dc universe and john byrne on legends and superman vol.2.with his then-wife barbara kesel, he co-wrote a hawk and dove miniseries in 1988 which was drawn by rob liefeld.kesel and artist tom grummett are the creators of the modern superboy character, kon-el, who debuted in the 'reign of the supermen' story arc, starting from the adventures of superman #500 (june 1993).an ongoing superboy series was launched by kesel and grummett in february 1994.in 1996, kesel and artist stuart immonen produced the final night limited series.that same year, kesel was one of the many creators who contributed to the superman: the wedding album one-shot wherein the title character married lois lane.kesel wrote the batman and superman: world's finest ten-issue limited series (april 1999–jan.2000) which explored the post-crisis history of the two with each of the ten issues taking place one year after the other.he and artist terry dodson launched a harley quinn ongoing series in december 2000.he inked mark bagley's cover art for the japan-exclusive super famicom video game the amazing spider-man: lethal foes in 1995.kesel wrote daredevil issues #353–364 (june 1996 – may 1997) and in 2002 wrote the story, 'remembrance of things past' in which it was revealed that ben grimm, the thing of the fantastic four, is jewish.kesel wrote and drew a 'lost' captain america comic strip from the 1940s which was published on marvel digital comics unlimited.in 2011, he scripted a hulk and the human torch story which had been plotted by jack c. harris and drawn by steve ditko in the 1980s.it was published by marvel as incredible hulk and the human torch: from the marvel vault #1 (august 2011).gorilla comics was intended to be a creator owned company financed by a comics related website, ehero.com.the website proved to be a financial failure, leaving the creators to personally finance their own books.along with the other gorilla comics creators, kesel and grummett attempted to continue the series they started, but these efforts proved to be unsuccessful.in january 2012, kesel announced that he and grummett would be relaunching section zero as a webcomic on the mad genius comics website.the previously published stories were posted on the site and new material was added as it was completed.a kickstarter campaign in 2017 will allow kesel and grummett to finish the story.in 2016, he was nominated for inkwell awards favorite inker.

the æsir are the gods of the principal pantheon in old norse religion and norse mythology.the second norse pantheon is the vanir, these two pantheons waged war against each other, resulting in a unified pantheon.in genitival compounds, it takes the form ása-, e.g.in ása-þórr ('thor of the æsir'), besides ás- found in ás-brú 'gods' bridge' (the rainbow), ás-garðr, ás-kunnigr 'gods' kin', ás-liðar 'gods' leader', ás-mogin 'gods' might' (especially of thor), ás-móðr 'divine wrath' etc.landâs 'national god' (patrium numen) is a title of thor, as is allmáttki ás 'almighty god', while it is odin who is 'the' ás.there is also old east norse dialectal *ās-ækia (own: *áss-ekja), i.e.'god ride' (thor riding in his wagon), resulting in the modern swedish word for atmospheric thunder – åska (the form åsekia attested as late as the 17th c.).the feminine form is ásynja (plural ásynjur).the feminine suffix -ynja (proto-norse: -unjō) is known from a few other nouns denoting female animals, such as apynja 'female monkey', vargynja 'she-wolf'.a cognate word for 'goddess' is not attested outside old norse, and a corresponding west germanic word would have been separately derived with the feminine suffixes -inī or -injō.áss is attested in other germanic languages, such as old english ōs (plural ēse), denoting a deity in anglo-saxon paganism, preserved only as a prefix ōs- in personal names (e.g.osborne, oswald) and some place-names, and as the genitive plural ēsa (ēsa gescot and ylfa gescot, 'the shots of anses and of elves', i.e.'elfshot', jaculum divorum et geniorum).in old high german, old dutch and old saxon, the word is only attested in personal and place names, e.g.ansebert, anselm, ansfrid, vihans.the old high german is reconstructed as *ans, plural *ensî.gothic has ans- as reported by jordanes, who wrote in the 6th century ce, presumably a latinized form of actual plural *anseis), as a name for euhemerized semi-divine early gothic rulers.the reconstructed proto-germanic form is *ansuz (plural *ansiwiz).the ansuz rune, ⟨ᚫ⟩, was named after the æsir.*ansuz, itself comes from proto-indo-european *h₂énsus (gen. h₂n̥sóus) 'life force' (cf.avestan aŋhū 'lord; lifetime', ahura 'godhood', sanskrit ásu 'life force', ásura 'demons' ( *h₂n̥suró).it is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- 'to engender' (cf.hittite hass- 'to procreate, give birth', tocharian b ās- 'to produce').while other cultures have had 'elder' and 'younger' families of gods, as with the titans versus the olympians of ancient greece, the æsir and vanir were portrayed as contemporaries.the two clans of gods fought battles, concluded treaties, and exchanged hostages (freyr and freyja are mentioned as hostages).an áss like ullr is almost unknown in the myths, but his name is seen in a lot of geographical names, especially in sweden, and may also appear on the 3rd century thorsberg chape, suggesting that his cult was widespread in prehistoric times.the names of the first three æsir in norse mythology, vili, vé and odin all refer to spiritual or mental state, vili to conscious will or desire, vé to the sacred or numinous and óðr to the manic or ecstatic.the vanir appear to have mainly been connected with cultivation and fertility and the æsir were connected with power and war.in the eddas, however, the word æsir is used for gods in general, while asynjur is used for the goddesses in general.for example, in the poem skírnismál, freyr was called 'prince of the æsir'.in the prose edda, njörðr was introduced as 'the third among the æsir', and among the asynjur, freya is always listed second only to frigg.in surviving tales, the origins of many of the æsir are unexplained.

karl kesel (born january 7, 1959, victor, new york) is an american comics writer and inker whose works have primarily been under contract for dc comics.he is a member of periscope studio and is best known for his collaborations with fellow artist tom grummett on the adventures of superman, superboy, and section zero, as well as the first harley quinn comic title.kesel's first work for dc comics appeared in new talent showcase #4 (april 1984).he soon became the inker on tales of the legion of super-heroes — so soon, in fact, that he suspected that he was assigned new talent showcase #8 as a test run to see how well he jelled with tales of the legion penciller terry shoemaker.kesel was discouraged that inks which looked smooth and clear on his original pages appeared clunky in the printed comics, and with some guidance from dick giordano he studied how to draw in a way that would appear better on the printed page.kesel worked on the lighthearted 'mazing man series, as well as providing inks over the pencils of george pérez on history of the dc universe and john byrne on legends and superman vol.2.with his then-wife barbara kesel, he co-wrote a hawk and dove miniseries in 1988 which was drawn by rob liefeld.kesel and artist tom grummett are the creators of the modern superboy character, kon-el, who debuted in the 'reign of the supermen' story arc, starting from the adventures of superman #500 (june 1993).an ongoing superboy series was launched by kesel and grummett in february 1994.in 1996, kesel and artist stuart immonen produced the final night limited series.that same year, kesel was one of the many creators who contributed to the superman: the wedding album one-shot wherein the title character married lois lane.kesel wrote the batman and superman: world's finest ten-issue limited series (april 1999–jan.2000) which explored the post-crisis history of the two with each of the ten issues taking place one year after the other.he and artist terry dodson launched a harley quinn ongoing series in december 2000.he inked mark bagley's cover art for the japan-exclusive super famicom video game the amazing spider-man: lethal foes in 1995.kesel wrote daredevil issues #353–364 (june 1996 – may 1997) and in 2002 wrote the story, 'remembrance of things past' in which it was revealed that ben grimm, the thing of the fantastic four, is jewish.kesel wrote and drew a 'lost' captain america comic strip from the 1940s which was published on marvel digital comics unlimited.in 2011, he scripted a hulk and the human torch story which had been plotted by jack c. harris and drawn by steve ditko in the 1980s.it was published by marvel as incredible hulk and the human torch: from the marvel vault #1 (august 2011).gorilla comics was intended to be a creator owned company financed by a comics related website, ehero.com.the website proved to be a financial failure, leaving the creators to personally finance their own books.along with the other gorilla comics creators, kesel and grummett attempted to continue the series they started, but these efforts proved to be unsuccessful.in january 2012, kesel announced that he and grummett would be relaunching section zero as a webcomic on the mad genius comics website.the previously published stories were posted on the site and new material was added as it was completed.a kickstarter campaign in 2017 will allow kesel and grummett to finish the story.in 2016, he was nominated for inkwell awards favorite inker.

sheldon moldoff (; april 14, 1920 – february 29, 2012) was an american comics artist best known for his early work on the dc comics characters hawkman and hawkgirl, and as one of bob kane's primary 'ghost artists' (uncredited collaborators) on the superhero batman.he co-created the batman supervillains poison ivy, mr.freeze, the second clayface, and bat-mite, as well as the original heroes bat-girl, batwoman, and ace the bat-hound.moldoff is the sole creator of the black pirate.moldoff is not to be confused with fellow golden age comics professional sheldon mayer.'i was drawing in chalk on the sidewalk—popeye and betty boop and other popular cartoons of the day—and he came by and looked at it and said, 'hey, do you want to learn how to draw cartoons?'i said, 'yes!'he said, 'come on, i'll show you how to draw.''he was of jewish background.moldoff sold his first cartoon drawing at age 17.'my first work in comic books was doing filler pages for vincent sullivan, who was the editor at national periodicals', one of the three companies, with detective comics inc. and all-american publications, that eventually merged to form the modern-day dc comics.moldoff's debut was a sports filler that appeared on the inside back cover of the landmark action comics #1 (june 1938), the comic book that introduced superman.his work includes the first cover of the golden age green lantern, on issue #16 (july 1940) of all-american's flagship title all-american comics, featuring the debut of that character created by artist martin nodell.moldoff created the character black pirate (jon valor) in action comics #23 (april 1940), and became one of the earliest artists for the character hawkman (created by gardner fox and dennis neville, though sometimes misattributed to moldoff).moldoff drew the first image of the formerly civilian character shiera sanders in costume as hawkgirl in all star comics #5, based on neville's hawkman costume design.beginning with flash comics #4 (april 1940), moldoff became the regular hawkman artist, following neville's departure from the feature the issue before.he drew the hawkman portions of the justice society of america stories published in all star comics as well.moldoff recalled in 2000 that all-american publisher max gaines ...took a shine to me....he's the one who said, 'we're going to put you on 'hawkman', and do whatever you want with it.do a good job; i know you can do it.'and that was it!...but when i looked at 'hawkman' and read a couple of stories, i said to myself, 'this has to be done in a[n alex] raymond style.'i could just feel it....i [had] saved [raymond flash gordon] sunday [comic strip] pages and the daily papers for years!... [gaines] liked my style; he liked the realism.we were competing with the newspapers.when he picked up the sunday papers, he saw flash gordon, prince valiant, terry and the pirates.when he picked up a comic book, there was a tremendous difference in the quality of the art.and then, all of a sudden, he saw me—an 18-year-old coming around, and i'm almost a student of raymond, and by god, the stuff looks good—it looks like raymond!we all leaned on these guys to learn—and we were very lucky, because while we were learning, we were selling the product...i spent a lot of time on it.i had books on anatomy and shadows and wrinkles; i studied, and i worked very hard on it, and i think it showed.drafted into world war ii military service in 1944, moldoff returned to civilian life in 1946, drawing for standard, fawcett, marvel and max gaines' ec comics.

the æsir are the gods of the principal pantheon in old norse religion and norse mythology.the second norse pantheon is the vanir, these two pantheons waged war against each other, resulting in a unified pantheon.in genitival compounds, it takes the form ása-, e.g.in ása-þórr ('thor of the æsir'), besides ás- found in ás-brú 'gods' bridge' (the rainbow), ás-garðr, ás-kunnigr 'gods' kin', ás-liðar 'gods' leader', ás-mogin 'gods' might' (especially of thor), ás-móðr 'divine wrath' etc.landâs 'national god' (patrium numen) is a title of thor, as is allmáttki ás 'almighty god', while it is odin who is 'the' ás.there is also old east norse dialectal *ās-ækia (own: *áss-ekja), i.e.'god ride' (thor riding in his wagon), resulting in the modern swedish word for atmospheric thunder – åska (the form åsekia attested as late as the 17th c.).the feminine form is ásynja (plural ásynjur).the feminine suffix -ynja (proto-norse: -unjō) is known from a few other nouns denoting female animals, such as apynja 'female monkey', vargynja 'she-wolf'.a cognate word for 'goddess' is not attested outside old norse, and a corresponding west germanic word would have been separately derived with the feminine suffixes -inī or -injō.áss is attested in other germanic languages, such as old english ōs (plural ēse), denoting a deity in anglo-saxon paganism, preserved only as a prefix ōs- in personal names (e.g.osborne, oswald) and some place-names, and as the genitive plural ēsa (ēsa gescot and ylfa gescot, 'the shots of anses and of elves', i.e.'elfshot', jaculum divorum et geniorum).in old high german, old dutch and old saxon, the word is only attested in personal and place names, e.g.ansebert, anselm, ansfrid, vihans.the old high german is reconstructed as *ans, plural *ensî.gothic has ans- as reported by jordanes, who wrote in the 6th century ce, presumably a latinized form of actual plural *anseis), as a name for euhemerized semi-divine early gothic rulers.the reconstructed proto-germanic form is *ansuz (plural *ansiwiz).the ansuz rune, ⟨ᚫ⟩, was named after the æsir.*ansuz, itself comes from proto-indo-european *h₂énsus (gen. h₂n̥sóus) 'life force' (cf.avestan aŋhū 'lord; lifetime', ahura 'godhood', sanskrit ásu 'life force', ásura 'demons' ( *h₂n̥suró).it is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- 'to engender' (cf.hittite hass- 'to procreate, give birth', tocharian b ās- 'to produce').while other cultures have had 'elder' and 'younger' families of gods, as with the titans versus the olympians of ancient greece, the æsir and vanir were portrayed as contemporaries.the two clans of gods fought battles, concluded treaties, and exchanged hostages (freyr and freyja are mentioned as hostages).an áss like ullr is almost unknown in the myths, but his name is seen in a lot of geographical names, especially in sweden, and may also appear on the 3rd century thorsberg chape, suggesting that his cult was widespread in prehistoric times.the names of the first three æsir in norse mythology, vili, vé and odin all refer to spiritual or mental state, vili to conscious will or desire, vé to the sacred or numinous and óðr to the manic or ecstatic.the vanir appear to have mainly been connected with cultivation and fertility and the æsir were connected with power and war.in the eddas, however, the word æsir is used for gods in general, while asynjur is used for the goddesses in general.for example, in the poem skírnismál, freyr was called 'prince of the æsir'.in the prose edda, njörðr was introduced as 'the third among the æsir', and among the asynjur, freya is always listed second only to frigg.in surviving tales, the origins of many of the æsir are unexplained.

sheldon moldoff (; april 14, 1920 – february 29, 2012) was an american comics artist best known for his early work on the dc comics characters hawkman and hawkgirl, and as one of bob kane's primary 'ghost artists' (uncredited collaborators) on the superhero batman.he co-created the batman supervillains poison ivy, mr.freeze, the second clayface, and bat-mite, as well as the original heroes bat-girl, batwoman, and ace the bat-hound.moldoff is the sole creator of the black pirate.moldoff is not to be confused with fellow golden age comics professional sheldon mayer.'i was drawing in chalk on the sidewalk—popeye and betty boop and other popular cartoons of the day—and he came by and looked at it and said, 'hey, do you want to learn how to draw cartoons?'i said, 'yes!'he said, 'come on, i'll show you how to draw.''he was of jewish background.moldoff sold his first cartoon drawing at age 17.'my first work in comic books was doing filler pages for vincent sullivan, who was the editor at national periodicals', one of the three companies, with detective comics inc. and all-american publications, that eventually merged to form the modern-day dc comics.moldoff's debut was a sports filler that appeared on the inside back cover of the landmark action comics #1 (june 1938), the comic book that introduced superman.his work includes the first cover of the golden age green lantern, on issue #16 (july 1940) of all-american's flagship title all-american comics, featuring the debut of that character created by artist martin nodell.moldoff created the character black pirate (jon valor) in action comics #23 (april 1940), and became one of the earliest artists for the character hawkman (created by gardner fox and dennis neville, though sometimes misattributed to moldoff).moldoff drew the first image of the formerly civilian character shiera sanders in costume as hawkgirl in all star comics #5, based on neville's hawkman costume design.beginning with flash comics #4 (april 1940), moldoff became the regular hawkman artist, following neville's departure from the feature the issue before.he drew the hawkman portions of the justice society of america stories published in all star comics as well.moldoff recalled in 2000 that all-american publisher max gaines ...took a shine to me....he's the one who said, 'we're going to put you on 'hawkman', and do whatever you want with it.do a good job; i know you can do it.'and that was it!...but when i looked at 'hawkman' and read a couple of stories, i said to myself, 'this has to be done in a[n alex] raymond style.'i could just feel it....i [had] saved [raymond flash gordon] sunday [comic strip] pages and the daily papers for years!... [gaines] liked my style; he liked the realism.we were competing with the newspapers.when he picked up the sunday papers, he saw flash gordon, prince valiant, terry and the pirates.when he picked up a comic book, there was a tremendous difference in the quality of the art.and then, all of a sudden, he saw me—an 18-year-old coming around, and i'm almost a student of raymond, and by god, the stuff looks good—it looks like raymond!we all leaned on these guys to learn—and we were very lucky, because while we were learning, we were selling the product...i spent a lot of time on it.i had books on anatomy and shadows and wrinkles; i studied, and i worked very hard on it, and i think it showed.drafted into world war ii military service in 1944, moldoff returned to civilian life in 1946, drawing for standard, fawcett, marvel and max gaines' ec comics.

the æsir are the gods of the principal pantheon in old norse religion and norse mythology.the second norse pantheon is the vanir, these two pantheons waged war against each other, resulting in a unified pantheon.in genitival compounds, it takes the form ása-, e.g.in ása-þórr ('thor of the æsir'), besides ás- found in ás-brú 'gods' bridge' (the rainbow), ás-garðr, ás-kunnigr 'gods' kin', ás-liðar 'gods' leader', ás-mogin 'gods' might' (especially of thor), ás-móðr 'divine wrath' etc.landâs 'national god' (patrium numen) is a title of thor, as is allmáttki ás 'almighty god', while it is odin who is 'the' ás.there is also old east norse dialectal *ās-ækia (own: *áss-ekja), i.e.'god ride' (thor riding in his wagon), resulting in the modern swedish word for atmospheric thunder – åska (the form åsekia attested as late as the 17th c.).the feminine form is ásynja (plural ásynjur).the feminine suffix -ynja (proto-norse: -unjō) is known from a few other nouns denoting female animals, such as apynja 'female monkey', vargynja 'she-wolf'.a cognate word for 'goddess' is not attested outside old norse, and a corresponding west germanic word would have been separately derived with the feminine suffixes -inī or -injō.áss is attested in other germanic languages, such as old english ōs (plural ēse), denoting a deity in anglo-saxon paganism, preserved only as a prefix ōs- in personal names (e.g.osborne, oswald) and some place-names, and as the genitive plural ēsa (ēsa gescot and ylfa gescot, 'the shots of anses and of elves', i.e.'elfshot', jaculum divorum et geniorum).in old high german, old dutch and old saxon, the word is only attested in personal and place names, e.g.ansebert, anselm, ansfrid, vihans.the old high german is reconstructed as *ans, plural *ensî.gothic has ans- as reported by jordanes, who wrote in the 6th century ce, presumably a latinized form of actual plural *anseis), as a name for euhemerized semi-divine early gothic rulers.the reconstructed proto-germanic form is *ansuz (plural *ansiwiz).the ansuz rune, ⟨ᚫ⟩, was named after the æsir.*ansuz, itself comes from proto-indo-european *h₂énsus (gen. h₂n̥sóus) 'life force' (cf.avestan aŋhū 'lord; lifetime', ahura 'godhood', sanskrit ásu 'life force', ásura 'demons' ( *h₂n̥suró).it is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- 'to engender' (cf.hittite hass- 'to procreate, give birth', tocharian b ās- 'to produce').while other cultures have had 'elder' and 'younger' families of gods, as with the titans versus the olympians of ancient greece, the æsir and vanir were portrayed as contemporaries.the two clans of gods fought battles, concluded treaties, and exchanged hostages (freyr and freyja are mentioned as hostages).an áss like ullr is almost unknown in the myths, but his name is seen in a lot of geographical names, especially in sweden, and may also appear on the 3rd century thorsberg chape, suggesting that his cult was widespread in prehistoric times.the names of the first three æsir in norse mythology, vili, vé and odin all refer to spiritual or mental state, vili to conscious will or desire, vé to the sacred or numinous and óðr to the manic or ecstatic.the vanir appear to have mainly been connected with cultivation and fertility and the æsir were connected with power and war.in the eddas, however, the word æsir is used for gods in general, while asynjur is used for the goddesses in general.for example, in the poem skírnismál, freyr was called 'prince of the æsir'.in the prose edda, njörðr was introduced as 'the third among the æsir', and among the asynjur, freya is always listed second only to frigg.in surviving tales, the origins of many of the æsir are unexplained.

sheldon moldoff (; april 14, 1920 – february 29, 2012) was an american comics artist best known for his early work on the dc comics characters hawkman and hawkgirl, and as one of bob kane's primary 'ghost artists' (uncredited collaborators) on the superhero batman.he co-created the batman supervillains poison ivy, mr.freeze, the second clayface, and bat-mite, as well as the original heroes bat-girl, batwoman, and ace the bat-hound.moldoff is the sole creator of the black pirate.moldoff is not to be confused with fellow golden age comics professional sheldon mayer.'i was drawing in chalk on the sidewalk—popeye and betty boop and other popular cartoons of the day—and he came by and looked at it and said, 'hey, do you want to learn how to draw cartoons?'i said, 'yes!'he said, 'come on, i'll show you how to draw.''he was of jewish background.moldoff sold his first cartoon drawing at age 17.'my first work in comic books was doing filler pages for vincent sullivan, who was the editor at national periodicals', one of the three companies, with detective comics inc. and all-american publications, that eventually merged to form the modern-day dc comics.moldoff's debut was a sports filler that appeared on the inside back cover of the landmark action comics #1 (june 1938), the comic book that introduced superman.his work includes the first cover of the golden age green lantern, on issue #16 (july 1940) of all-american's flagship title all-american comics, featuring the debut of that character created by artist martin nodell.moldoff created the character black pirate (jon valor) in action comics #23 (april 1940), and became one of the earliest artists for the character hawkman (created by gardner fox and dennis neville, though sometimes misattributed to moldoff).moldoff drew the first image of the formerly civilian character shiera sanders in costume as hawkgirl in all star comics #5, based on neville's hawkman costume design.beginning with flash comics #4 (april 1940), moldoff became the regular hawkman artist, following neville's departure from the feature the issue before.he drew the hawkman portions of the justice society of america stories published in all star comics as well.moldoff recalled in 2000 that all-american publisher max gaines ...took a shine to me....he's the one who said, 'we're going to put you on 'hawkman', and do whatever you want with it.do a good job; i know you can do it.'and that was it!...but when i looked at 'hawkman' and read a couple of stories, i said to myself, 'this has to be done in a[n alex] raymond style.'i could just feel it....i [had] saved [raymond flash gordon] sunday [comic strip] pages and the daily papers for years!... [gaines] liked my style; he liked the realism.we were competing with the newspapers.when he picked up the sunday papers, he saw flash gordon, prince valiant, terry and the pirates.when he picked up a comic book, there was a tremendous difference in the quality of the art.and then, all of a sudden, he saw me—an 18-year-old coming around, and i'm almost a student of raymond, and by god, the stuff looks good—it looks like raymond!we all leaned on these guys to learn—and we were very lucky, because while we were learning, we were selling the product...i spent a lot of time on it.i had books on anatomy and shadows and wrinkles; i studied, and i worked very hard on it, and i think it showed.drafted into world war ii military service in 1944, moldoff returned to civilian life in 1946, drawing for standard, fawcett, marvel and max gaines' ec comics.

the æsir are the gods of the principal pantheon in old norse religion and norse mythology.the second norse pantheon is the vanir, these two pantheons waged war against each other, resulting in a unified pantheon.in genitival compounds, it takes the form ása-, e.g.in ása-þórr ('thor of the æsir'), besides ás- found in ás-brú 'gods' bridge' (the rainbow), ás-garðr, ás-kunnigr 'gods' kin', ás-liðar 'gods' leader', ás-mogin 'gods' might' (especially of thor), ás-móðr 'divine wrath' etc.landâs 'national god' (patrium numen) is a title of thor, as is allmáttki ás 'almighty god', while it is odin who is 'the' ás.there is also old east norse dialectal *ās-ækia (own: *áss-ekja), i.e.'god ride' (thor riding in his wagon), resulting in the modern swedish word for atmospheric thunder – åska (the form åsekia attested as late as the 17th c.).the feminine form is ásynja (plural ásynjur).the feminine suffix -ynja (proto-norse: -unjō) is known from a few other nouns denoting female animals, such as apynja 'female monkey', vargynja 'she-wolf'.a cognate word for 'goddess' is not attested outside old norse, and a corresponding west germanic word would have been separately derived with the feminine suffixes -inī or -injō.áss is attested in other germanic languages, such as old english ōs (plural ēse), denoting a deity in anglo-saxon paganism, preserved only as a prefix ōs- in personal names (e.g.osborne, oswald) and some place-names, and as the genitive plural ēsa (ēsa gescot and ylfa gescot, 'the shots of anses and of elves', i.e.'elfshot', jaculum divorum et geniorum).in old high german, old dutch and old saxon, the word is only attested in personal and place names, e.g.ansebert, anselm, ansfrid, vihans.the old high german is reconstructed as *ans, plural *ensî.gothic has ans- as reported by jordanes, who wrote in the 6th century ce, presumably a latinized form of actual plural *anseis), as a name for euhemerized semi-divine early gothic rulers.the reconstructed proto-germanic form is *ansuz (plural *ansiwiz).the ansuz rune, ⟨ᚫ⟩, was named after the æsir.*ansuz, itself comes from proto-indo-european *h₂énsus (gen. h₂n̥sóus) 'life force' (cf.avestan aŋhū 'lord; lifetime', ahura 'godhood', sanskrit ásu 'life force', ásura 'demons' ( *h₂n̥suró).it is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- 'to engender' (cf.hittite hass- 'to procreate, give birth', tocharian b ās- 'to produce').while other cultures have had 'elder' and 'younger' families of gods, as with the titans versus the olympians of ancient greece, the æsir and vanir were portrayed as contemporaries.the two clans of gods fought battles, concluded treaties, and exchanged hostages (freyr and freyja are mentioned as hostages).an áss like ullr is almost unknown in the myths, but his name is seen in a lot of geographical names, especially in sweden, and may also appear on the 3rd century thorsberg chape, suggesting that his cult was widespread in prehistoric times.the names of the first three æsir in norse mythology, vili, vé and odin all refer to spiritual or mental state, vili to conscious will or desire, vé to the sacred or numinous and óðr to the manic or ecstatic.the vanir appear to have mainly been connected with cultivation and fertility and the æsir were connected with power and war.in the eddas, however, the word æsir is used for gods in general, while asynjur is used for the goddesses in general.for example, in the poem skírnismál, freyr was called 'prince of the æsir'.in the prose edda, njörðr was introduced as 'the third among the æsir', and among the asynjur, freya is always listed second only to frigg.in surviving tales, the origins of many of the æsir are unexplained.

the æsir are the gods of the principal pantheon in old norse religion and norse mythology.the second norse pantheon is the vanir, these two pantheons waged war against each other, resulting in a unified pantheon.in genitival compounds, it takes the form ása-, e.g.in ása-þórr ('thor of the æsir'), besides ás- found in ás-brú 'gods' bridge' (the rainbow), ás-garðr, ás-kunnigr 'gods' kin', ás-liðar 'gods' leader', ás-mogin 'gods' might' (especially of thor), ás-móðr 'divine wrath' etc.landâs 'national god' (patrium numen) is a title of thor, as is allmáttki ás 'almighty god', while it is odin who is 'the' ás.there is also old east norse dialectal *ās-ækia (own: *áss-ekja), i.e.'god ride' (thor riding in his wagon), resulting in the modern swedish word for atmospheric thunder – åska (the form åsekia attested as late as the 17th c.).the feminine form is ásynja (plural ásynjur).the feminine suffix -ynja (proto-norse: -unjō) is known from a few other nouns denoting female animals, such as apynja 'female monkey', vargynja 'she-wolf'.a cognate word for 'goddess' is not attested outside old norse, and a corresponding west germanic word would have been separately derived with the feminine suffixes -inī or -injō.áss is attested in other germanic languages, such as old english ōs (plural ēse), denoting a deity in anglo-saxon paganism, preserved only as a prefix ōs- in personal names (e.g.osborne, oswald) and some place-names, and as the genitive plural ēsa (ēsa gescot and ylfa gescot, 'the shots of anses and of elves', i.e.'elfshot', jaculum divorum et geniorum).in old high german, old dutch and old saxon, the word is only attested in personal and place names, e.g.ansebert, anselm, ansfrid, vihans.the old high german is reconstructed as *ans, plural *ensî.gothic has ans- as reported by jordanes, who wrote in the 6th century ce, presumably a latinized form of actual plural *anseis), as a name for euhemerized semi-divine early gothic rulers.the reconstructed proto-germanic form is *ansuz (plural *ansiwiz).the ansuz rune, ⟨ᚫ⟩, was named after the æsir.*ansuz, itself comes from proto-indo-european *h₂énsus (gen. h₂n̥sóus) 'life force' (cf.avestan aŋhū 'lord; lifetime', ahura 'godhood', sanskrit ásu 'life force', ásura 'demons' ( *h₂n̥suró).it is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- 'to engender' (cf.hittite hass- 'to procreate, give birth', tocharian b ās- 'to produce').while other cultures have had 'elder' and 'younger' families of gods, as with the titans versus the olympians of ancient greece, the æsir and vanir were portrayed as contemporaries.the two clans of gods fought battles, concluded treaties, and exchanged hostages (freyr and freyja are mentioned as hostages).an áss like ullr is almost unknown in the myths, but his name is seen in a lot of geographical names, especially in sweden, and may also appear on the 3rd century thorsberg chape, suggesting that his cult was widespread in prehistoric times.the names of the first three æsir in norse mythology, vili, vé and odin all refer to spiritual or mental state, vili to conscious will or desire, vé to the sacred or numinous and óðr to the manic or ecstatic.the vanir appear to have mainly been connected with cultivation and fertility and the æsir were connected with power and war.in the eddas, however, the word æsir is used for gods in general, while asynjur is used for the goddesses in general.for example, in the poem skírnismál, freyr was called 'prince of the æsir'.in the prose edda, njörðr was introduced as 'the third among the æsir', and among the asynjur, freya is always listed second only to frigg.in surviving tales, the origins of many of the æsir are unexplained.

the æsir are the gods of the principal pantheon in old norse religion and norse mythology.the second norse pantheon is the vanir, these two pantheons waged war against each other, resulting in a unified pantheon.in genitival compounds, it takes the form ása-, e.g.in ása-þórr ('thor of the æsir'), besides ás- found in ás-brú 'gods' bridge' (the rainbow), ás-garðr, ás-kunnigr 'gods' kin', ás-liðar 'gods' leader', ás-mogin 'gods' might' (especially of thor), ás-móðr 'divine wrath' etc.landâs 'national god' (patrium numen) is a title of thor, as is allmáttki ás 'almighty god', while it is odin who is 'the' ás.there is also old east norse dialectal *ās-ækia (own: *áss-ekja), i.e.'god ride' (thor riding in his wagon), resulting in the modern swedish word for atmospheric thunder – åska (the form åsekia attested as late as the 17th c.).the feminine form is ásynja (plural ásynjur).the feminine suffix -ynja (proto-norse: -unjō) is known from a few other nouns denoting female animals, such as apynja 'female monkey', vargynja 'she-wolf'.a cognate word for 'goddess' is not attested outside old norse, and a corresponding west germanic word would have been separately derived with the feminine suffixes -inī or -injō.áss is attested in other germanic languages, such as old english ōs (plural ēse), denoting a deity in anglo-saxon paganism, preserved only as a prefix ōs- in personal names (e.g.osborne, oswald) and some place-names, and as the genitive plural ēsa (ēsa gescot and ylfa gescot, 'the shots of anses and of elves', i.e.'elfshot', jaculum divorum et geniorum).in old high german, old dutch and old saxon, the word is only attested in personal and place names, e.g.ansebert, anselm, ansfrid, vihans.the old high german is reconstructed as *ans, plural *ensî.gothic has ans- as reported by jordanes, who wrote in the 6th century ce, presumably a latinized form of actual plural *anseis), as a name for euhemerized semi-divine early gothic rulers.the reconstructed proto-germanic form is *ansuz (plural *ansiwiz).the ansuz rune, ⟨ᚫ⟩, was named after the æsir.*ansuz, itself comes from proto-indo-european *h₂énsus (gen. h₂n̥sóus) 'life force' (cf.avestan aŋhū 'lord; lifetime', ahura 'godhood', sanskrit ásu 'life force', ásura 'demons' ( *h₂n̥suró).it is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- 'to engender' (cf.hittite hass- 'to procreate, give birth', tocharian b ās- 'to produce').while other cultures have had 'elder' and 'younger' families of gods, as with the titans versus the olympians of ancient greece, the æsir and vanir were portrayed as contemporaries.the two clans of gods fought battles, concluded treaties, and exchanged hostages (freyr and freyja are mentioned as hostages).an áss like ullr is almost unknown in the myths, but his name is seen in a lot of geographical names, especially in sweden, and may also appear on the 3rd century thorsberg chape, suggesting that his cult was widespread in prehistoric times.the names of the first three æsir in norse mythology, vili, vé and odin all refer to spiritual or mental state, vili to conscious will or desire, vé to the sacred or numinous and óðr to the manic or ecstatic.the vanir appear to have mainly been connected with cultivation and fertility and the æsir were connected with power and war.in the eddas, however, the word æsir is used for gods in general, while asynjur is used for the goddesses in general.for example, in the poem skírnismál, freyr was called 'prince of the æsir'.in the prose edda, njörðr was introduced as 'the third among the æsir', and among the asynjur, freya is always listed second only to frigg.in surviving tales, the origins of many of the æsir are unexplained.

ajoblanco (sometimes written ajo blanco) is a popular spanish cold soup typical from granada and málaga (andalusia).this dish is made of bread, crushed almonds, garlic, water, olive oil, salt and sometimes vinegar.it is usually served with grapes or slices of melon.when almonds were not available, for instance during the post-war period, flour from dried beans was used.ajoblanco is sometimes referred to as 'white gazpacho'.extremaduran ajoblanco (ajoblanco extremeño) is a related though somewhat different dish, since it contains egg yolk in the emulsion as well as water, olive oil, garlic and bread, and while vegetables such as tomatoes or cucumbers may be added, it does not usually contain almonds.it would eventually become a traditional dish of andalucía.the almonds and the garlic are mixed together (sometimes with vinegar) with a mortar and pestle until a white paste is formed.finally water and olive oil are added and the mixture is beaten until it has an emulsion-like texture.when served this way, the soup is thinned so that it can be drunk directly from a glass.in málaga, ajoblanco is served with muscat grapes or, less commonly, other fresh fruit, such as apple or melon.there is a current trend to experiment with other such combinations.

alcatraz versus the evil librarians is a juvenile novel written by american author brandon sanderson, published in october 2007 by scholastic press.the book is named after its main character, alcatraz smedry.after receiving a bag of sand for his thirteenth birthday, he is involved in a very strange set of events.the book starts with alcatraz setting fire to his foster parents' kitchen.it is revealed that he has been in countless foster homes, always ending up with alcatraz 'destroying' things precious to the people taking care of him.ms. fletcher, alcatraz's personal caseworker, arrives and scolds him for destroying his foster parents' kitchen.the next day an old man arrives at the house and claims to be his grandfather, telling alcatraz that he has a special, powerful talent, breaking things.after the old man finds alcatraz's bag of sand missing, he and alcatraz must go on a mission to recover it at all cost from the evil librarians, secret rulers of the world.these freedom fighters include alcatraz's grandfather, leavenworth smedry, usually just referred to as 'grandpa smedry'; bastille, grandpa's bodyguard and a crystin knight; sing sing - sing for short - alcatraz's polynesian cousin; and quentin, another cousin.the librarians include shasta / ms. fletcher, alcatraz's case worker and radrian blackburn, a dark oculator.alcatraz has the talent of breaking things.grandpa smedry, alcatraz's grandfather, has the power to arrive late.as such, he is always running behind the clock.but his power also allows him to arrive late to other things, like bullets, which always miss him, and his blood can arrive late to wounds so that he doesn't bleed to death.in his own words 'i've been arriving late to my own death for longer than you've been alive.'sing, alcatraz's cousin's talent is the ability to trip and fall to the ground.this helps when this is a sign of danger.quentin, another cousin, has the talent to speak gibberish or nonsensical phrases.his talent proves beneficial when he is captured by the librarians, as they cannot understand him and thus cannot gain important information from him, even through torture.it is through some of quentin's supposed gibberish that alcatraz is prompted to know what to do in future events.smedrys from ancient days had grand talents, though relatively unexplained.one could get unbelievable amounts of water on the ground when she did the dishes, which allowed her to end a drought.another could make rude noises at inappropriate moments, breaking enemies' concentration so they could not use weapons.if someone not related to the smedrys marries a smedry, the person marrying into the family gets their spouse's talent.a third alcatraz book, called alcatraz versus the knights of crystallia, was released on october 1, 2009, and the fourth book, alcatraz versus the shattered lens, was released on december 1, 2010.since scholastic only commissioned the first four books, and was unwilling to publish the fifth book, sanderson bought back the rights to the series in early 2013.he later sold the series to tor books who then republished the series.the fifth book of the series, entitled the dark talent, was released september 6, 2016.tor books reprinted the first five books in a paperback box set, then published the sixth book in the series, alcatraz bastille vs. the evil librarians, on september 20, 2022, which was co-authored by janci patterson.on january 3, 2011, brandon sanderson, the author of the novel, tweeted that dreamworks did not renew the rights.

the 320 south boston building (formerly known as the national bank of tulsa building) is a 22-story high-rise building located in downtown tulsa, oklahoma.it was originally constructed at the corner of third street and boston avenue as a ten-story headquarters building for the exchange national bank of tulsa, oklahoma in 1917, and expanded to its present dimensions in 1929.the addition brought the building's height to 400 feet (122 m), making it the tallest building in oklahoma.it lost this distinction in 1931, but remained the tallest building in tulsa until fourth national bank (today bank of america center) was completed in 1967.it is now included in the oil capital historic district.the beaux arts-style building was designed by oscar wenderoth of the chicago architectural firm of the weary & alford company.it is covered in brick with terra cotta trim.the lower two stories are covered in terra cotta.the central tower is stepped at the 20th floor, with a two-story arcade section, which is topped by a temple fronted section.a cupola tops the section.for many years, the cupola was illuminated by floodlights whose color changed according to the latest weather forecast.green light meant a fair weather forecast, while red lights signified an approaching storm.in 1933, exchange national bank reorganized and renamed itself as the national bank of tulsa.thereafter, the building was known as the national bank of tulsa building (or nbt building), until the bank renamed itself as bank of oklahoma (bok).the bok moved to its newly constructed bok tower in 1977.the nbt building reverted to its former 320 south boston building name and became a general office building.among the tenants are hall estill, one of oklahoma's largest law firms.in 1949, tulsa television station kotv erected its first transmitter atop the building.during construction, a worker's wrench fell and struck a woman on the street below, killing her.kotv continued to broadcast from the building until a taller tower was constructed in 1954.a longstanding urban myth regarding the pinnacle of 320 south boston building erroneously reported that the tower was designed as a zeppelin mooring.the myth, often propagated by local media, stated that the pinnacle was used at least once when a u.s. navy zeppelin moored there in the 1930s.the top of the building was illuminated for weather alerts, with flashing red lights in the event of an approaching storm.the architect was george winkler, who also designed the mayo hotel.

ajoblanco (sometimes written ajo blanco) is a popular spanish cold soup typical from granada and málaga (andalusia).this dish is made of bread, crushed almonds, garlic, water, olive oil, salt and sometimes vinegar.it is usually served with grapes or slices of melon.when almonds were not available, for instance during the post-war period, flour from dried beans was used.ajoblanco is sometimes referred to as 'white gazpacho'.extremaduran ajoblanco (ajoblanco extremeño) is a related though somewhat different dish, since it contains egg yolk in the emulsion as well as water, olive oil, garlic and bread, and while vegetables such as tomatoes or cucumbers may be added, it does not usually contain almonds.it would eventually become a traditional dish of andalucía.the almonds and the garlic are mixed together (sometimes with vinegar) with a mortar and pestle until a white paste is formed.finally water and olive oil are added and the mixture is beaten until it has an emulsion-like texture.when served this way, the soup is thinned so that it can be drunk directly from a glass.in málaga, ajoblanco is served with muscat grapes or, less commonly, other fresh fruit, such as apple or melon.there is a current trend to experiment with other such combinations.
