Hello! :) Just back from Wonder Con, and too much awesome to post about just yet! But for now, wanted to update with some new Amethyst work. Yep, still trying and hoping I could bring her back someday :) My ideas for her are new and different, but still true to where she came from. I feel it's important if she is to come back, to make her juuuuust right in balance between old and new!
Below is the color version of the cover I drew recently (yep! inks colors by my hubby Ray Dillon!) I am pretty adamant to make her very fair in color, as part of the Amethyst nation, they live in a cold, beautiful gem realm. Other friends, such as Emerald, you can see in snippet on the cover. She'll be the brash sea pirate :) Much warmer in color. I have other plans for Dark Opal, Carnelian, and others!
Further down are a couple new pages I drew, depicting her meeting with Granch right when she arrives at Gemworld for the first time. Yeah, I made Granch a little different looking. ;) But I like it!

The two institutions merged in 1978 and now constitute the largest U.S. medical center devoted to the study and treatment of chronic respiratory diseases and immune system disorders, including asthma, emphysema, tuberculosis, chronic bronchitis, interstitial lung disease, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, and lupus. Research activities cover an ever-broadening range of both basic and applied science, from examination of basic life processes to in-depth clinical studies of particular diseases. The Center provides an information service called LUNGLINE, (800)222-LUNG, for individuals with questions about lung diseases and allergies. Beyond the areas of study and treatment listed, LUNGLINE offers information on pneumonia, sarcoidosis, smoking, asbestosis, cystic fibrosis, occupational lung diseases, and other topics. Professional staff publish scientific papers and participate in seminars and conferences. In addition, the Center conducts a formal medical and research fellowship program to train young physicians and researchers in the latest methods of investigating and controlling these illnesses.

The euro strengthened the most in eight weeks against the dollar after European Central Bank President Mario Draghi said data suggest the region's economy will stabilize this year.
The 17-nation currency advanced for a second day versus the yen as ECB policy makers refrained from cutting their benchmark interest rate at a meeting today and Spanish borrowing costs declined at a bond auction. The pound rose against the dollar after the Bank of England left its asset-purchase program unchanged. The yen weakened against all its major counterparts as U.S. jobless claims unexpectedly declined, damping demand for haven assets.
"Draghi is more upbeat than what the market was expecting, given there was a chatter of a rate cut," said Derek Halpenny, European head of global markets research at Bank of Tokyo- Mitsubishi UFJ Ltd in London. "In the near-term, the euro should stay above $1.30 and will possibly pop to $1.32 or $1.33," he said.
The euro rose 0.9% to $1.3080 at 9:30 a.m. in New York time after gaining as much as 1%, the most since Jan. 10, when the ECB also held a policy meeting. The single currency advanced 1.3% to 123.58 yen. Japan's currency weakened 0.4% to 94.48 per dollar.
The ECB kept its benchmark rate at a record low of 0.75% as forecast by 56 of 61 economists surveyed by Bloomberg News. Five predicted a reduction to 0.5%.
"Later in 2013 economic activity should gradually recover, supported by a strengthening global backdrop and our accommodative monetary policy stance," Draghi said at a press conference in Frankfurt after the rate decision was announced. The euro's exchange rate is not a policy target, he said.
Spanish Auction
The single currency strengthened in earlier trading after Spain sold 5.03 billion euros of bonds, surpassing its target of 5 billion euros. The Madrid-based Treasury auctioned 10-year securities at an average yield of 4.917%, down from 5.20% at the previous sale on Feb. 21.
The euro has appreciated 1.6% this year according to Bloomberg Correlation-Weighted Indexes, which track 10 developed-nation currencies. The dollar gained 2.6% and the yen slumped 6.7%.
The pound reversed earlier losses versus the dollar after the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee held its asset- purchase target at 375 billion pounds ($565 billion), as forecast by 29 of 39 economists surveyed by Bloomberg. Ten predicted an expansion.
"Clearly not all members of the MPC are on the same page yet and some hawkishness remains," said Neil Jones, head of European hedge fund sales at Mizuho Corporate Bank Ltd. in London, before the decision. "The pound will advance initially."
The pound rose 0.2% to $1.5054 after dropping to $1.4967, the weakest level since July 2010. Sterling declined 0.6% to 86.89 pence per euro.

12.17.12: The CCRI Lady Knights soccer players keep racking-up the post season awards. Previously the Lady Knights had seven players earn All-Region XXI honors and one player earned NJCAA All-American honors. Today it was announced that two players: Caitlin McGarry (Warwick, RI) and Paige Oram (Burrillville, RI) were named to the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) All-North Regional Team. In addition, Cait McGarry was also named NSCAA Second Team All-American.
McGarry (Warwick, RI) earns her second All-American honor in as many weeks for the Lady Knights. McGarry had recently earned her first All-American honor being named NJCAA Second Team All-American last week. In addition, McGarry earns her second NSCAA All-North Region award after earning second All-Region XXI honor in as many years a few weeks ago. McGarry led the Lady Knights in scoring both years she played. In her sophomore campaign she was tied for team-high with 11 goals and added a team-leading 18 assists for 40 total points. The 40 total points ranked her tied for No. 40 in the nation by the NJCAA. In addition, the 18 assists rank her No. 8 in the nation by the NJCAA. In her freshman year Cait had 10 goals and a team-leading 14 assists for 34 total points. For her career she had 21 goals and is ranked second all-time with 32 assists and ranked No.8 on the CCRI All-time scoring list with 74 total points.
McGarry's soccer acumen was unmatched she was the Lady Knights primary kicker for their set plays and corner kicks. Many of her assists came for set plays and corners as she would utilize her leg strength and amazing accuracy to find her teammates in the opponents' scoring area. Head Coach Dennis Grassini commented about his sophomore Co-Captain: "Coach Bannan and I were so happy, pleased, and proud that Caitlin McGarry has been selected as Second Team NJCAA All-American again. Cait led our team in scoring this past season recording 11 goals and 18 assists for 40 points. In her two years here at CCRI she has scored 21 goals and added 32 assists for a total of 74 points. Caitlin is a quality player who has great skills and footwork. Her free kicks are second to none. She gave our team probably some of the best corner kicks we've ever had in the history of our program. Considering our record was only 10-5-2 this past season and not qualifying for the National Tournament, it just proves what Cait's worth was to our program. She has represented CCRI and the women's soccer program in an admirable fashion. We are so happy that she has been recognized nationally as she really deserves this All-American honor!"
Freshman Paige Oram (Burrillville, RI) earns her second All-Region honor in her freshman campaign with her NSCAA All-North Region selection, after earlier earning NJCAA All-Region XXI honors. Oram was a key addition to the 2012 Lady Knights' soccer quad and was ranked third on the team with eight goals while adding three assists and fourth on the team with 21 total points. Her athleticism set her apart she always took the field and played with tremendous passion and pace with a never say die attitude. Oram will be a key part of the Lady Knights' success in 2013. Coach Grassini commented "We are very pleased and proud to announce that freshman, midfielder Paige Oram has been selected to the NSCAA All-North Regional Team for 2012. Paige was a solid midfielder for our team this past season. She started every game and rarely came off the pitch. She really showed the coaching staff and her teammates that she possesses a lot of talent and knowledge of the game. She has great foot skills, field awareness, and soccer savvy. We are delighted that she has been recognized for her efforts! We are looking for bigger any better things from Paige next season as a sophomore and team leader."
The Community College of Rhode Island, New England's largest comprehensive community college, enrolls nearly 18,000 students in credit courses and thousands more in non-credit and job training classes. Its athletic program boasts 12 varsity programs and an academic support program for all student-athletes.

Introducing Homepage for Heroes
By John LaMarca
Today we are pleased to announce the launch of Homepage for Heroes, a new initiative that brings together the best of AOL to recognize, honor and support those that dedicate their lives to protecting and bettering ours. As May is National Military Appreciation Month, what better way to kick off this initiative than to honor the men and women who bravely serve in our military?
Through June, AOL is partnering with the USO® to create connections for U.S. military troops deployed across the world. Every time a user comes to aol.com/heroes and sets AOL as their homepage, AOL will donate 10 minutes of talk-time on their behalf. This donation will help support Operation Phone Home, a USO® program that provides free calls, high-speed Internet bandwidth and wireless access to troops in USO® Centers around the world.
And we're not stopping there. AOL will continue to honor our military service members throughout the year, by creating support and opportunity for our troops and their families:
- This month, AOL employees will be creating 30,000 care packages as part of our annual Monster Help Day. These care packages will be sent to active service members overseas, returning wounded military personnel, as well as military spouses and children right here at home. Starting July 4th, AOL users will have the opportunity to personalize these care packages, by sending their own letters of thanks and support, courtesy of the non-profit Operation Gratitude.
- Later on in the year, we'll look to raise awareness and provide support for one of the biggest challenges our troops face when returning home: re-entering the workforce. To do this, we'll leverage one of our greatest assets: our content creators. AOL will call upon experts in every field (career management, media, fashion and decorated veterans) to compile a dream team of advisors who will help military families. We'll feature one complete "career makeover" for a veteran and their family each week.
As a child in the early 1970s, I remember my Mom and Dad each wearing bracelets that contained the name, rank, service branch, country and date of loss of an American prisoner of war or service member who had gone missing in action. It was their way to show support for those brave service members who had lost their connection to both their family and their country. Years later my mother received a letter from her POW, who had returned home. The letter contained a personal thank you note, along with a picture of him, his wife and children. The letter brought home for me the fact that these were real people, with real lives and real families, making very real sacrifices for our country. Sadly, my father's POW/MIA never returned home to his family.
At AOL, it is our goal to connect our audience to the causes that they care about, and to give them the tools they need to make a difference. Homepage for Heroes is the latest installment of our ongoing commitment to that goal.

How do you feel about your end of life scenario? The reason I am asking is because things I have seen with my own eyes. I work in an ICU, and I see people kept alive when they have conditions that would end in death if not for medical science. And I'm not talking about a temporary condition that will resolve. I'm talking about someone who has cancer in every system in the body. Or end stage respiratory problems, kidneys, etc. I have also done this in my personal life, kept someone on life support when I KNEW better.
More Americans are living with chronic diseases than ever before, due to advancements in medical science. From app. 90 million in 1995 to 120 million today. Conditions that will not get better. Do you want everything done to "not go gently into that good night"? Or are you willing to let nature take its course?
This is not talking about euthansia, death committes, or such. Just how you feel about it for yourself. And if you've made a promise to a loved one. Can you stand strong, or let your fear hold onto you? Thanks.

I sometimes think I am the only non drinker alive with liver disease. I am a big fella with no chance of surviving. I have an extreme case if fatty liver which means it will most likely be slow. I am in pain every minute, I have had a good life and have no complaints. I know what the end will be like and I have no intentions of going that far. I figure I have some years left and intend to enjoy them, However I know what the end will be like and I will not lay in a bed able to do nothing but soil myself at the end. I hope have the strength to end things on my own accord. My sisters can only think about my soul which I of course insist I don't have one. IN the mean time I do not get to spend the time with them I would like to. To me that is the only sad part. I mean face it we are all going to go sooner or later. I am just glad I have a wife and kids that are atheist who understands me. I don't think I could handle any more religious nuts than my family already has.
Personally, as long as I am conscious and alert, I want to be alive as long as possible, not necessarily out of fear of death but more out of wanting to experience as much of life as I can because of how wonderful it all is. Like Christopher Hitchens, I want to be writing, working and creating my whole life.
David. Good to hear from you, man. And I agree, except a the very end. When I can no longer do for myself without extreme measures, I want to let nature take its course. Keep me relatively pain free. No heroics. And be with friends and family to remeber, laugh, cry, make plans, gossip, etc. Beyond living wills, advanced medical directives, power of attorneys, you must talk, really talk with your families. Make sure they really understand what you want, and that you love them, and would always try to carry out their wishes. Some of my thoughts from someone who has seen it from the front lines, as it were. Thanks.
You have the right to refuse medical treatment. However, you may have to establish that before hand should you be in a situation which prevents you from expressing your wishes. That's what a living will is for.
Terry, you are right. And I have seen family members, when the patient is unconscious, withdraw the living will. But when the family is fighting, and calling in attorneys, the doctor usually takes a "time out" and puts the patient in standby until it is sorted out. I have seen this more than once. A living will is not so cut and dry. But what is?
I already had a brush with death, and it really isn't bad at all, as long as you aren't in pain. Your consciousness just fades away, and then there's nothing. Unless someone manages to revive you, as happened to me. I wasn't clinically dead, just close to it, and if my friends hadn't found me, I would have died within hours.
My brother is already clear on the fact that I do not want to spend my last days helpless and in pain when there is no hope of any future quality of life. I already have suicide plans in place, and am fully prepared to use them, but I'm luckier than most, because I have diabetes, and can easily arrange to let my blood sugar go up to a fatal level, while taking enough insulin not to go into uncomfortable ketoacidosis.
I do have to admit that it irks me when people want heroic measures to keep their bodies alive when they're no longer home -- it's tremendously expensive in both money and time, and achieves nothing. The Terri Schiavo case was really disgusting, and no one benefited from it, least of all Terri herself. To my mind, it was a crime against Terri, and that shouldn't be allowed to happen.
Hi Natalie. I wholeheartedly agree with you about the Terri Schiavo thing. A disgrace. Yes life is precious, but sometimes the best thing one can do is nothing. I know you know what I mean.
Never had a brush with death myself yet, but at my age [58 y.o.] I know it is coming, sooner than I might wish for. I've had the opprotunity, working where I do, to speak with some people. Always let them broach the subject. Most seem to feel as you do. One sweet, nice lady told me it was kind of comforting. Then awoke back in the hospital bed with tubes and wires in her. She didn't say it, but seemed kind of disappointed.
I'm glad you brought up the expense, as according to Medicare stats, the vast majority of a recepients lifetime benefits are used within the last two years of their life. Kinda interesting fact, huh. Thanks for your thoughts. I appreciate it very much.
Thinning the Head
I am a senior, so, not to far from the reality of the last curtain call. I think the quality of life is of the greatest importance, more so than duration. It depends on the ones life history what kind of philosophic perspective one develops. Some people really don't give it much thought until its staring them down. I am with the Buddhist on this one, there really never was a self, ones identity can be swept away so easily, and by so many means.
When I was young I was epileptic, and through this experience my identity was was removed from me many times, though for brief periods, enough however to start a young kid wonder about this thing called identity. Without identity you just are, and you experience your body quite differently, it feels GREAT to be alive, your experiencing the vitality of the body. There are no qualifications or limitations pressing down on who or what you are------because I guess, they can't find you--lol!! It can be rather disheartening when your memory starts flooding back, your identity is your context if you like, and how well you've dealt with that context is basically how you feel about yourself. I have told my daughter that if I go, do not let them bring me back, what for, they are not going to bring one back in good health and young, but an old senior that would have to endure the process all over again. Well, I think that about does it for now. By the way excellent post!! I shall be following it.
Thanks for the input, James. I'm with you on this. No heroics. I believe in nature and science, and this is just a natural consequense of life. And slightly off topic, I wish for a natural burial. No chemicals, wrap me in a shroud, put me in. I want my body to help nourish the small part of the planet that I'm gonna be in, just as it has nurtured me. Thank you again for the post. Peace and long life.
Several years ago when I had emergency heart surgery, I told my primary physician and heart surgeon that I did not want resuscitation and for my yearly exams I assure them again that I do not want resuscitation. My children know my feelings and the reasons. I have had such a tremendous life, done and been places most people have not, worked with exceptionally fine people, taught college classes, had a private practice, have done research. My children are all grown and on their own. They have gifted me with four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. If I can't be in my garden, or cooking up a storm, or playing with the young ones, or going where I want to go and doing what I want to do, I want nature to take its course. No regrets, nothing more needs doing, I successfully stopped the tradition of generations of family violence and we learned how to live together in peace, how to cooperate in solving problems and resolving conflicts. I am proud of each one of them and know their lives are built upon a solid foundation of love and respect. I go in peace ... but not yet. I feel great, am happy, enjoy life each minute of each day.
P.S. when they wheeled me into surgery I told the surgeon I wanted an "ophthorectumy", a procedure to cut the nerve going from my eyeballs to my rectum, thus preventing a shitty outlook on life. I drifted into sleep hearing everyone laugh.
Joan. Wonderful, just wonderful. An "opthorectomy". You made me laugh, and that I think is one of the most important thing in this. It truly speaks to our humanity on such a topic. Enjoying each minute with people we love is ultimately the best we can have in our lives, probably the only thing that truly matters. Thank you again, I'm still smiling, and will off and on all day today.
Ophthorectumy made me smile also. Thanks Joan.

We're less than two months away from the start of college basketball season, which means that it's time to begin the second annual Sweet 16.
For those who missed it last year, The Sweet 16 is my list of Baltimore's top college basketball players. The selections have been made based on prior college success and projections for this coming season. I consulted college coaches, sports information directors, writers and others in compiling this list.
The order in which these stories appear online doesn't necessarily constitute a ranking. In print, as part of our college basketball preview section in November, we'll rank these players from bottom to top. But for now, we'll forget about the rankings and just focus on these 17 players.
Before we take a look back at the 2011 selections and how they performed last season, I should probably explain why something called The Sweet 16 will feature 17 players. It's a simple explanation, really: I couldn't decide who to cut from the list. There was a decent drop-off from 17 to 18, but the last four or five in the Top 17 were interchangeable. So I'm rolling with 17 and will have a tie for 16th place in November's final rankings.
The eligible athletes for this list have to be returning players or transfers who can play right away. Roscoe Smith, for example, will sit out this year at UNLV after leaving UConn, so he won't be listed. But there is one fifth-year senior on the list who graduated from his previous school and can play right away. And there are two transfers who redshirted last season at their new schools and will play major roles this season. Freshmen and JUCO transfers were not considered.
This is far from an exact science, as evidenced by a huge whiff last year with my exclusion of Georgetown's Henry Sims (Mount St. Joseph). Sims had averaged just 3.6 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.7 assists as a junior, so what proved to be a massive improvement his senior year (11.6 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.4 blocks per game) was something I didn't see coming. If I were to re-rank last year's list, Sims would have to be in the Top 5.
The most difficult omission this year is Allan Chaney, a Baltimore native who graduated from high school in New London, Conn. The 6-foot-9 power forward played sparingly in his freshman season at Florida before transferring to Virginia Tech, where he was diagnosed with viral myocarditis, an infection of the heart that causes inflammation. Chaney never suited up for the Hokies, but he was recently medically cleared to play and has enrolled at High Point, where he's expected to play a prominent role for the Panthers. I wouldn't be surprised to see Chaney blow up this year, but since I'm also factoring in previous college success, I couldn't quite take the leap of faith.
I looked at all of Baltimore's returning college players, but some who received serious consideration and just missed the cut were: UMBC guard Ryan Cook (Pallotti), Mount St. Mary's forward Raven Barber (Edgewood native), Elon forward Ryley Beaumont (Mount St. Joseph), Loyola guard R.J. Williams (St. Frances), Akron guard Chauncey Gilliam (Hammond) and Bryant guard Raphael Jordan (John Carroll).
One more note before we revisit the 2011 Sweet 16. After the 17th player has been featured, I'll set up a bracket-style tournament (complete with a play-in game) with polls on the blog for readers to vote on who they think is Baltimore's best college basketball player.

The left's latest cause is for businesses to cough up a "living wage". They really have no idea. They think running a business is easy.
That's because they have never done it. The left think you just turn up each day and the profits are deposited each week.
But many businesspeople don't make the minimum wage, let alone the "living wage". They work all hours. They sweat about making the wage bill each week. And they must suffer the depredations of petty and contradictory government rules.
We are very lucky to have them. The income they generate pays all our wages, either directly or indirectly. Politicians, teachers, police officers and government officials pay no net tax. Their wages are paid out of taxes. The tax they pay is nominal only. They owe their lifestyle to businesspeople who generate the income on which all tax is paid.
Business would survive without government. But government wouldn't survive without business.
Lefty politicians pay lip service to small business. And then attack big business. But big business is just a small business that succeeds.
It's incoherent to be for small business but against small business succeeding.
Besides, business success is the social success that matters most. It's the success of providing what people actually want at a price they are prepared to pay. The anti-business sentiment that runs through New Zealand schools, universities, politics and media is bizarre.
It's a sentiment borne of a lack of experience and comprehension.
It's behind the left's call for a living wage, the idea that prosperity can somehow be conjured out of the air simply by calling for it.
We also see the left's ignorance when business succeeds and when it fails. They see the money that follows business success as somehow unearned. And they see business failure as something odd, something wrong, and as someone's moral failure.
They view with disdain the loss of jobs, but don't thank Mainzeal for providing the jobs in the first place.
Besides, those who lose jobs are invariably picked up by others in business who can use their skills and time to better effect.
The exceptions to re-employment aren't the fault of the market but of government rules, regulations and handouts that vainly attempt to protect people from the vicissitudes of life.
We need more business people. The continual struggle and challenge to employ people and resources to best effect is what makes an economy dynamic and wages higher.
The businesspeople picking themselves up from failure are to me the boxer pushing himself up from the mat bloodied and bruised, sweaty and wearied, refusing to give up and determined to fight on.
I cheer their courage and doggedness and what they give us all.
Debate on this article is now closed.

Can't stop hearing about it in the news, but wondering what makes "augmented reality" (AR) – the concept of overlaying computerized information, digital pop-up windows and/or virtual reality (VR) displays over real-world scenes and imagery – so exciting? Allow us to paint a picture. Imagine. You walk up to an airport terminal and breeze past the airline check-in. Afterwards, a wireless chip in your smartphone uses biometrics to verify your identity at a checkpoint, then a green arrow pops up and shows you the best path to the gate. When you get there, a blue circle shows you where to sit and helps you avoid the most common congestion points. You wait about five minutes until a soft chime tells you to get in line. The total time between drop-off and take-off: Just 20 minutes.
In this near-future scenario, just one of many possible applications for the technology, the concept of augmented reality makes air travel more bearable. More than just a series of visual cues, the technology can even combine auditory sensors and other stimuli to make high-tech data part of your everyday life. Like robotics, there's a visceral and physical representation of the underlying artificial intelligence involved. And with real-world implications that range from expediting everyday business travel to fueling potential military research, facilitating heightened responses in emergency scenarios and powering the world's most immersive video games, augmented reality will forever change how we think about data and how we process information.
"Augmented reality will ultimately become a part of everyday life," explains Sam Bergen, an associate art director for digital innovation at the ad agency Ogilvy and Mather. "Kids will use it in school as a learning tool – imagine Google Earth with AR- or AR-enabled text books. Shoppers will use it to see what products will look like in their home. Consumers will use it to visually determine how to set up a computer. Architects and city planners will even use it to see how new construction will look, feel, and affect the area they are developing."
This year, apps such as Nearest Tube for iPhone (which displays real-time pop-ups alerting users to nearby train stations in London) and Tweetmondo for Android smartphones (which shows the status updates of nearby Twitter fans), offer an early glimpse at how the technology works. Even the unlikeliest candidates such as the US Postal Service, A&E Network, and GE are beginning to show how augmented reality could help us interact with and understand digital content in more interesting ways. Knowing this, it's not too farfetched to wager that in the not-too-distant future, augmented reality could actually become as integral to our lives as cell phones and Web 2.0 sites in terms of how it enhances reality and integrates with our surroundings.
Of course, there are dangers involved. Relying too much on augmented reality could mean more than just driving into a lake when you follow poor GPS directions. Instead, following the prompts of a software program designed to make your life easier could lead to life-threatening disaster and a new form of hacking and identity theft. Given the tools to make augmented reality part of our lives, there is a potential for sensory overload, and for others to manipulate the everyday real-world feedback we take for granted. Still, in the right conditions, the technology could make our lives less complex and far easier.
Part science fiction, part a reaction to today's increasingly overwhelming constant barrage of digital content, one thing is for certain, though: Augmented reality is an important step on the road to making technology more understandable and useful.

Spoiler alert: The Yes Men do actually fix the world– but only on paper. For years this two-man team has been pranking conferences, newscasts, and exhibitions by posing as representatives of the world's biggest environmental transgressors. While speaking as DOW Chemical, they publicly apologized for the Bhopal disaster. While pretending to be from Halliburton, they demonstrated the Survivaball, a human disaster survival suit: prohibitively expensive and visually ridiculous. In a particularly complicated stunt, they created a fake version of the New York Times announcing everything from the end of the war in Iraq to the creation of a maximum wage law. They have provoked, embarrassed, ridiculed and shocked many captains of industry. Driven, ultimately, by the desire to address serious issues with humor and radical intervention, The Yes Men Fix the World in a documentary that pits itself against unchecked greed.
Inhabitat got a glimpse of this gut-punch of a film at the Bioneers Moving Image Festival, surrounded by the Bay Area glory of activist grandmas and eco-nerds. This is definitely a great film to watch in a crowd of like-minded folk– many opportunities for outraged gasps and breakouts of applause. But even if you think it's rude to hand people candles that smell like human flesh, it's hard to deny the effectiveness of a Yes Men intervention.
Those candles, for instance, are samples of a new product — Vivoleum — unveiled by the Yes Men at a petroleum conference. The future of the industry, they argued, speaking as representatives of Exxon and the National Petroleum Council, is the search for alternative fuels, the use of waste as energy — and what better misused resource than the flesh of victims of climate change? "After all, 150,000 people already die from climate-change related effects every year. That's only going to go up – maybe way, way up. Will it all go to waste? That would be cruel," said Yes Man Andy Bichlbaum. The pranksters were summarily escorted from the building, leaving the audience open-mouthed, and holding some pretty scary candles.
Probably the most painfully awkward prank goes down at a Gulf Coast Reconstruction Conference after a speech by New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin. Pretending that he is actually a Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Bichlbaum declares that New Orleans public housing, long closed off to its former tenants, will be reopened, and that several major oil corporations will be funding the reconstruction of Louisiana wetlands. After the speech, a particularly gung-ho journalist corners the Yes Men and calls them "liars," playing a "cruel joke" on Louisiana residents. It's an accusation the duo get for many of their stunts. Contrary to expectation, many victims of the real-life injustices that they bring attention to are just glad to have their issues acknowledged and discussed. The hope is that discussion will lead to real change: the journalist's story becomes about the prank and its issues, not lies.
That's kind of the point. Beyond the fact that WTO reps have houses and kids, that contractors in New Orleans want everyone to have a home, that everyone is trying their damnedest to do something good within the web of profit, consumption, production and regulation, the Yes Men ask: What Is Happening? Why haven't the victims of Bhopal been compensated? Why isn't there a radical wetlands reconstruction project in Louisiana? Why on earth would you create a life-saving suit so expensive that few people could afford it? The pranksters are constantly reevaluating their actions and their effectiveness in creating actual change. That's the essential gut-punch of the film, and it sets us up beautifully to enjoy the near-Utopian articles in their version of the New York Times. So far, The Yes Men may have only fixed the world on paper, but they've left us believing that someday the fixes could stick.

Nicasio eager to prove durability over complete season
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Rockies right-hander Juan Nicasio has heard all he cares to about a lack of durability. Only in the regular season can he answer.
He put an exclamation point on a strong Cactus League season with five no-hit, seven-strikeout, one-walk innings in a 4-1 victory over the White Sox on Tuesday afternoon.
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Rockies right-hander Juan Nicasio has heard all he cares to about a lack of durability. Only in the regular season can he answer.
He put an exclamation point on a strong Cactus League season with five no-hit, seven-strikeout, one-walk innings in a 4-1 victory over the White Sox on Tuesday afternoon.
Of course, he could have gone longer if not for a damaged nail on his right middle finger. But Nicasio said he's dealt with it before and it's not a lingering problem. And fingernail problems aren't the issue.
Coming off two seasons of injuries, Nicasio made it past six complete innings just twice in 30 starts last season. Until he can get deep in games without a blowup that shortens the duration of his starts, the criticism will linger. But if the beginning of an answer is being sick of the question, Nicasio is ready for his reply.
"A lot of people talk too much about me, like, 'He throws four innings, five innings,' something like that," Nicasio said. "I'll show everybody, every day. I want to throw 200 innings, something like that. It's like my dream, throw 200 innings in the Major Leagues."
If he reaches that point, as a power fastball pitcher with a slider and a new split-finger pitch that he hopes will increase his innings, the Rockies just may have a realistic dream of contending. Even with his lack of length and 5.14 ERA, Nicasio managed a 9-9 record, and went 5-1 with a 3.09 ERA in 13 starts within the National League West.
One can't blame him for being happy to be there, after being hit in the head by a line drive in 2011, sustaining a left knee injury in 2012 and pitching through lingering knee pain last season. But he speaks like a man who wants more. Manager Walt Weiss believes health will take care of everything.
"I don't know if he has a chip on his shoulder or what it is, but he's healthy for the first time in a while," said Weiss, who said the fingernail should not affect Nicasio's next start, on Sunday against Minor Leaguers. "He wants to show who he really is. I think that's the bottom line with Juan. It's hard to compete in this league when you're not healthy."
Weiss and Rockies senior vice president of Major League operations Bill Geivett said repeatedly during the offseason that they believed Nicasio would justify why he was brought to the Majors from Double-A in 2011 by becoming a successful power pitcher. The organization's thought was the injuries have held him back from developing the third pitch that it takes to make it through an order three times.
It appeared the Rockies were hedging their bets, however, when they announced before camp that Nicasio had to compete for his spot. Alas, righty Jhoulys Chacin experience a right shoulder strain that could keep him out until anywhere from late April to the middle of May.
Still, Nicasio has pitched as if folks were breathing down his neck. Tuesday's performance ran his strikeout total to 23 against six walks and lowered his batting average against to .171.
"Walt, 'Givo,' they believed in me because they gave me the opportunity," Nicasio said. "I needed to show I believed in me, too. I needed to work hard and show everybody they're right."

Recently, we announced new Families Afield numbers that show more than three-quarters of a million apprentice hunting licenses have been sold across the country over the past six years.
I was feeling mighty proud. As USSA's point person on Families Afield I spend a significant amount time thinking about getting new hunters involved in our sport and working with state legislators to make that happen. After going home that day feeling good about the success we've had and the new hunters we've created… I was met by the cold reality that I had missed the trees for the forest. In this case, the tree is my longtime girlfriend.
Out of the blue she tells me she wants to shoot a turkey. Now, she's been shooting with me before on a few occasions and has genuinely enjoyed herself. (She's not a bad shot either!) But she had never expressed any interest in hunting…actually killing something. And I'd never asked her to go.
For her it was simple – she, like many, was simply too shy to ask. But that was not her fault. It was mine. I never even thought of asking her. Not even once. The whole experience got me thinking about why we sometimes miss the easy target?
What is it that holds us back – consciously or subconsciously – from taking someone hunting?
I began to talk with colleagues in the office. Here are the top three reasons from our conversations for why we don't take new people hunting:
1) Not Feeling Competent Enough: Many people simply don't feel they are a good enough hunter to teach someone the ins-and-outs of hunting. It may be fear of a slow day in the woods. Or pressure to produce a quality hunt. In reality it's about spending time with friends or loved ones. Most new hunters will see past the rough patches and appreciate the time and effort you gave. We shouldn't worry about making it the perfect hunt (everyone gets shutout some days, right?). Plus, a bad day hunting is always better than a day in the office, so enjoy the time spent in the woods passing on your skills. Chances are they will enjoy it too.
2) Time Commitment: Let's call a spade, a spade – this is a selfish reason and one that I fully understand and struggle with. Taking someone hunting requires a significant amount of time. For most people, hunting occurs on the weekend, which reduces a 4-week season to just a handful of huntable days. Taking a newcomer hunting cuts our own opportunity to fill a tag. There is no doubt – mentoring is a big commitment. Just remember, someone else took the time and effort to teach us and if we want hunting to be around for our kids and grandkids we have a duty to do the same for someone else. On top of that, watching someone fall in love with hunting is fulfilling.
3) Making Assumptions/Overlooking: I am guilty as charged here. My mistake was assuming that she didn't have an interest. I don't know why I never asked. But learn from my mistake – just because someone doesn't ask doesn't mean that they are uninterested. They may just be too shy to ask you.
So after a quick shopping trip… some fancy new camo (with pink trim of course)… and an Apprentice Hunting license she's all set to hit the turkey woods. She may never become a full time hunter. She may never take Hunter Education. She might not have the patience to sit in the turkey woods or a duck blind. But then again she might do all of those things. At least now she will have the chance.
Being too shy to ask shouldn't condemn someone to being left at home. Recruiting new hunters is more than stats and programs. New hunters are right under our noses and they are made one hunting trip at a time. They can be our friends, our family, or co-workers. These people are the future of hunting, and it's our duty to find them… just as someone found us. It's our duty to Protect What's Right.
What holds you back from taking someone hunting?

Along with cookies-n-creme ice cream, soap operas, and shot-gunning beer, the Bad Lip Reading videos are a guilty pleasure of mine. I could watch them over and over. This time around they take on The Amazing Spider-Man and even give Peter Parker a chance to 'freestyle'.
