A former Loves Park business owner is sentenced for his role in trying to block an open police investigation.
Thomas Caputo used to own Gia's. He was charged about a year ago for threatening a witness. Loves Park Police confirmed at the time, that they were investigating a shooting that happened at the restaurant November 25th. Investigators wouldn't say if the charges stem from that shooting. Caputo pleaded guilty to attempted unlawful communication with a witness. He was ordered to pay fines of $1,000 and he'll be on conditional discharge for 24 months.

I am looking for long underwear pants/top...
Member since
I am looking for long underwear pants/top to fit my 6'4" 165-170lbs frame.
I usually wear a 32x35 pant and I have semi broad shoulders ~40 chest w/ a 35 sleeve.
Is there any brand/model that will fit a tall/slim person?
john schmidt
Member since
Joey-- we must be twins separated at birth. Your measurements are mine to a tee. For lightweight (but very warm) long underwear I wear Ibex's Woolies Zip-T tops in a size large. The sleeves are long (35-36") and the garmet is form-fitting. No cold spots due to excess material- these tops are form-fitting and very warm. You will love it. I have 3 of them. For bottoms I wear their woolies bottoms in a Med (29" inseam) for a snugger fit. You could go with the large (29.5" inseam). For heavy-weight long underwear I'd look for garments made with Polartec Power Stretch. Marmot makes great power stretch tops (size large with 35-36" sleeves). The power stretch tops make a perfect 2nd layer over the Ibex zip-Tee. I wear these two items all winter and am toasty every day. Hope that helps.
Icebreaker Body Fit 150 vs. These

Icebreaker Body Fit 150 vs. These
Does anyone have any kind of idea how these compare to the Icebreaker Body Fit 150?? I think that the Icebreakers are a little lighter, but I have no idea on the durability of either one. I am looking for my first pair of wool base layers, and these two are at the top of my list. With them both being priced at $60 right now, I wanted to see if anyone out there could give me some ideas on which way to go.
Thanks for your help!!
Member since
I have both. I think that the Icebreakers are cut a little bigger, actually. I bought a small in the Icebreakers and a medium in the Ibex. (I am 5'11", 155). The Ibex legs are slimmer, so the medium was more comfortable. I think that you would be happy with either of them although if I had to pick one, I might go with the Icebreakers by a tiny margin.
Sean Hilliard
Member since
Eric, thank you very much for your help!! That was exactly the info I was looking for. The Icebreakers being a little bigger should fit me better, so I will pick up a pair of those. Thank you again!

Can't go wrong with these super light and amazingly warm. Also, soft and ordorless, Ibex has outdone themselves with these. Tested in below zero fahrenheit temperatures.

I am 5'9" 175 pounds. What size Whoolies bottoms would be best?
Michael Tartaglia
Member since
I'm 5'7" 140 and the smalls are a bit tight on the waist and a tad long on the leg. So i would probably suggest a medium for you. Hope this helps, I know its a few months late for you but i couldn't see a question go unanswered on backcountry.
Essential base layer...
Ben D Ski
Member since
Had such great success with the Ibex Woolies top over the last 3 years that I had to get the bottoms to match! Great warmth and comfort, minimal bulk. Excellent performance over a wide temperature range. Easy care. No pilling or odor between washings. Have tried smartwool and never been as satisfied as with Ibex. Worth the extra $$ over synthetics!
Odor begone
Jesse Lind
Member since
These things handle odor better than any synthetics I've ever used. They are infintiely comfortable and wick heat and moisture away superbly. I use these for ice climbing, skiing and winter backpacking. It's my go-to baselayer. Buy it!

Doctor Who Fans Sends Message Through Time and Space
Slightly Fortean news – or simply another illustration of the power of Doctor Who? It's hard to say, but if I were to tell you that a young lad from Sunderland sent a message through both time and space, you'd think me barmy, wouldn't you?
But that's exactly what happened, using just a piece of paper, a bottle and the ocean. Back in 2011, younr Cade Scott, now 11, placed this message in a bottle:
"I love Dr Who. If found, please send back with your name and address and how old you are. Cade."
17 months later, the bottle had travelled not only in time (to Christmas 2012) but also in space – to Australia, where it was found by 25-year-old Matthew Eltham, who replied on January 7th using more immediate methods:
"Hi Cade, thanks for your postcard. I found it whilst celebrating Christmas on the beach in Perth, Western Australia! Happy New Year."
Isn't that cool? Not only that, but the bottle experienced all manner of temperature extremes, from the freezing cold climes of Roker, Tyne and Wear, to the sweltering Australian summer that coincides with Christmas.
No doubt it found itself dragged through a few vortexes too!
(Via The Telegraph)
One Response to Doctor Who Fans Sends Message Through Time and Space
The bottle must have gone at a pretty good clip to make it from the UK to Australia in only a year or so, considering it had to go around the south end Africa. Vortex indeed!

Hundreds of people waited near Midway International Airport in Chicago to honor an Illinois soldier killed in Afghanistan as his remains were brought back to his hometown.
The body of Army Pfc. Aaron Toppen arrived at the airport Saturday. The 19-year-old was one of five American service members killed this month by a U.S. airstrike called in to help defend against a Taliban ambush.
A procession accompanied his remains to his hometown of Mokena, about 20 miles to the southwest. Crowds gathered at points along the route.
Visitation is scheduled from 1-9 p.m. on Monday at Parkview Christian Church in Orland Park.
Funeral services will follow on Tuesday at 10 a.m. at the church.
Toppen deployed to Afghanistan in March.

Join Today!
Welcome to Girl Scouts!
Thank you for your interest in Girl Scouts, the premier leadership development organization for girls and women in the world! With over 3.2 million members, Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. (GSUSA) is building girls of courage, confidence, and character who are making the world a better place!
Our local council, Girl Scouts of Southeastern Michigan (GSSEM), offers flexible ways for girls and adults to participate in the leadership experience. In a fun and stimulating environment, with the guidance and mentorship of caring adults, girls lead activities, learn by doing, and cooperate with others to make a difference in their world.
Become A Member:
For you and/or your daughter to join Girl Scouts, please complete our online membership registration. Once a member, you can choose how you would like to participate in Girl Scouts of Southeastern Michigan. Whether participating as a member of a Community or District troop, you will be able to immediately engage in a fun, high-quality Girl Scout Leadership Experience.
What is a "Community Troop"?
For the most flexibility, Community Troops offer the opportunity for girls and adults to customize their experience and become involved in Girl Scouting right away!
Based upon her time and interests, girls can participate in a multi-session leadership series (which can be short or long-term, typically held over multiple weeks), council or community-sponsored skill-building events (one-time, stand-alone programs that can be a few hours, all day, or overnight), outdoor camp programs, or travel adventures.
Upon joining, girls and adults are automatically included in the Community Troop for their geographical area. As a member of the Community Troop, girls can select the programs which match their interests, meet others with similar interests, have lots of fun, and enjoy a high quality Girl Scout leadership experience!
For adults, there are exciting opportunities to volunteer to support community programs by sharing your passions and talents with girls without an ongoing time commitment. Council staff and experienced volunteers can provide easy to use tools and resources so that you can have fun being a mentor to girls by supporting a community-based multi-session series or a stand-alone event.
What is a "District Troop"?
Some girls and adults prefer to participate in a traditional District Troop and attend regularly scheduled meetings throughout the year in a specific location such as a school, faith-based organization, or community center. Troop Leaders, Co-Leaders, and other adult volunteers provide a safe and caring environment for girls to realize their full potential.
After joining, girls can be transferred to an existing troop as long as there are enough adult volunteers for the number of girl members. By committing to take an active role in the Girl Scout program, parents/adults also gain a fulfilling experience. Troop's today function at their own pace. Meeting location and frequency is determined by the girls and volunteers.
Financial Aid Available:
Girl Scouts of Southeastern Michigan grants financial assistance based on the need and availability of the member and/or their family. We offer financial aid for families whose personal circumstances may be an obstacle to overcome so that their daughter can fully engage in Girl Scout events, activities or opportunities. Assistance will be granted based on need and availability of funds.
Be A Volunteer:
Girl Scouts is an adult mentoring organization. Your interests and life experiences make you the perfect person to be a new kind of role model for girls, someone who creates a safe environment in which every girl feels free to work toward her highest aspirations. By joining today as an adult volunteer, you can choose how you would like to participate in the Girl Scout Leadership Experience, based upon your interests and schedule. To become an approved volunteer, please complete our online volunteer application and complete a routine background check.

The newest goofy thing to go on at the Open is a roving nudist, who decided to scamper down onto the court during the Williams sisters doubles match today. Don't worry, it's safe for work (courtesy of Sports Rubbish).
The guy was actually running around for almost a full minute, and no one came after him. Now, you might be wondering why this streaker is allowed to run around with no one doing this to him. Well, apparently streakers are not the focus for security officials down under.
So if you want to streak at a major sporting event, I highly suggest the Australian Open.
This streaker of course brings the hilarity we seen so far at the Open, like Marat Safin's busted up face, and ballboys and net judges getting smacked in the face by tennis balls.
Less funny - rioting.
But then again, rioting has gotten me to at least acknowledge the Australian Open this year. Last year I didn't learn that the Australian Open had happened until June.

"I increased my order by 40 after receiving these beautiful cards. I was extremely happy with the excellent quality of the card and the photo came out perfect. Unfortunately FedEX left them in the rain but since they were wrapped so carefully they were not ruined. Thanks, Mernie"
"My son recently completed his Eagle Project and wanted to thank everyone who contributed to the success of his project. He picked the best pictures of the project and put them on the postcard. The final project was beautiful. This was an inexpensive way to thank everyone and for them to see how their contributions were spent."
"I have ordered this card twice after enjoying it so much the first time. I found it versatile and the perfect size for a short note...sometimes a thank you note or a sympathy note...it worked well for both. I deleted the "thank you" heading and inserted my name at the top. That left a little more room to write."
"I absolutely love these cards--my very favorite thank you cards to use. The high paper quality, contemporary design, and accent color (I chose orange), along with my name (only placed my first name after the words "thank you" on the card) make it special. I love the self-addressed envelopes that match it (I think it's such a nice touch to have personalized envelopes as well). I ordered both the cards and envelopes a second time, and will continue to order more as I run out. Great value!"
"I ordered these cards for as informal thank yous for all the little things that people do for us over the course of the year. They are perfect for writing a short sweet note of thanks. Loved everything about the cards, they turned out great!"

Chapter 03 - Just Follow Me4 Reviews
Adoption, isn't it great?
It was wierd being in the back of a police car and not being taken down to the station for questioning.
I didn't like it much. Well, who in their right mind would?
We got to the orphanage about half an hour later. It was quite big but in a sort of small way.. It's hard to explain really. It was a dirty brick grey colour.
"Heidi Casher" The officer told the lady at the desk.
"Ah yes. If you just follow me." She said, looking over her desk at me.
I meerly nodded. What more should I do? I'm in a fucking orphanage for Christ's sake!
Once she saw me nod she came out from behind her desk and told the officer that he could leave now.
"Bye Miss Casher, hope everything works out for the best." Fucking knob. Of course everything's not gonna be good. I'm gonna be adopted by some shitty family who don't know the first thing about me or how to look after someone and there for I'm going to have a fucking shit like. Or I'm going to be stuck in this hell hole for the rest of my life. Cunt.
Walking through the halls of the 'care home' I noticed that there were quite alot of small children, and only a few older ones. But none that really seemed to look my age...
Well this is going to be even better no isn't it.
When we finally got to the room there was already a girl who looked about a few years younger than me, wearing a light pink top (ew), flaired jeans (skinny for the win mate) and she had blonde hair.
"You will be staying with Amy Peterson here." The lady said. "And you shall have lights out at 8:30 la-"
"8:30! YOU'VE GOT TO BE FUCKING KIDDING ME!" Eight-thirty! That's like 4 and a half hours before I usually go to sleep.
"Excuse me. We do not use that kind of language here." She snapped. "I shall leave you with Amy now, get to know each other." Bitch, she said it in a way that could only imply that we would be here for our whole lives.
I could see Amy looking at me, probably checking out all the black I was wearing, and my piercings and all the other 'gothic' or 'emo' items I had on me.
"Great" Amy muttered to herself.
"Oh fuck off." I growled. Seriously, if life here was going to be with this whore I might as well leave now.
"What did I do?!" You already hate me and you don't even know me! That's what you did.
I chose to ignore the blondie and dumped my stuff on my 'bed'. It was more like a jail bed, grey with dirt and thin sheets.
I then continued to unpack my clothes and everything else as I'm probably never going to be adopted. I flopped down on the bed and sighed. It was 8 now, so bed in half an hour. Fucking great.
"So, why are you here?" Amy asked. I still couldn't cry. I just couldn't. I guess the realization of it all hadn't hit me yet.
I didn't want to answer her. Why should I? She's just like one of the popular girls in a secondary school who act nice to you so they can find out your secrets then bitch about you behind your back. Why should I tell her anything? Damn right I shouldn't.
I just stayed silent, laying down on the lumpy mattress and taking the whole place in.
Amy's bed was in the far left corner, while mine was in the opposite, each bed had a manky bed side table that had a drawer and cupboard compartment.
There was only one chest of drawers for clothes and such, but was just about big enough to fit mine and Amy's. There was a small oval shaped mirror between the two beds which had a matching small desk and chair underneath it that had the same dirty gret coloured clothe as the bed sheets and the walls were painted a dusty yellow colour that had handprints and other dirt all over them.
I heard Amy fall onto her bed and mumble "fucking goth" under her breath.
Ha! Fucking bitch. I could so do with punching her face in right now.
"LIGHTS OFF!" The old hag yelled through the corridors and turned the power off, leaving all the rooms in picth black. If she seriously thinks I'm going to sleep now, she is sorely mistaken.
I waited for Amy to fall asleep and once she had I crept out of my bed and grabbed my torch.
I sneaked out of my room, being careful not to make a noise and crept through the halls of the orphan.
I eventually got to my destination. The kitchen.
It was a pretty sad thing to do, but whatever. It was better than going to sleep.
I grabbed all of the spices off of the shelves and mixed them into all the other ingrediants in the kitchen. In the end, every last bit of food was probably now going to burn your tongue if you ate it. Even the cerial would kill.
Mental note: Do not ever eat the food here.
Ha, tomorrow is going to be fun.
I went back to my room and decided to sleep. There's no more point in me being awake at this precise moment anyway...
I woke up the next day at 7 to the sound of the same old hag shouting "EVERYONE UP!"
You have got to be fucking kidding me! 7 in the Goddamned morning. Jesus Christ!
I listened to Amy stirring in her bed for a moment until she got up and mumbled a "breakfast" at me.
I nodded, signalling I heard but really had no intention of going.
"Suit yourself" She growled.
"Yes, I will fucking suit myself thanks!" I retorted. Seriously, she is really going to get to me.
Why am I even bothering staying in this place again? Can't I just leave?
Would they actually notice if I left?
Hey! There's an idea. I can 'run away'. Ha! Run away from an orphanage. Don't I have one fucking fun life.
Well, I'm going to run away.
I packed all of my stuff back into my suitcase and back pack and picked them up.
Luckily, I'm only on the second floor so it's not too much of a fall. Think I can make it?
I chucked my suitcases out of the window and watched them fall on the muddy grass out side. I quickly followed, thinking it'd probably be safer to use the drain pipe.
Ha! This place is just one big fucking joke!
Seriously, how easy are they trying to make it?
If you are reading this, please could you comment. It'll make me update a whole lot faster

text: Inventory #414: Fragrance sample ——- REGARDING COMMITMENT I look surprised, but that's just the role someone gave me; I saw this coming all over the horizon, your face, so when the maze began to flood, I swam in the clues, I clung to the big ones and let them save me. Survival feels almost as good as predicting the future, as picking up all the glass in one fluid motion. Two shots ring out—in my head or in real time?—the shots are open to interpretation. They are turning from sound into real things, little shards of a stronger feeling than mine.

From The Armchair: Oakland Raiders Week 6
10/14/13 in NFL | Cali_Kat | 15596 respect
This game however, was a battle of the defenses to start with. It seemed like we couldn't do anything on offense. Our defense held their own against the Chiefs offense. Then on a 66 yard drive, Terrelle Pryor throws to Denarius Moore on a slant route and Moore takes it in for a TD. Things were looking really good at that point. But then later in the second quarter KC ties it.
From there it just went downhill. The crowd was loud, and they were part of the reason that we lost. Pryor was sacked 10 times, and at one point I think with penalties and sacks we were near our own end zone facing a 3rd and 246. Okay maybe not 246 but it felt like it.
I have to give credit to our punter Marquette King, he punts as well as Lechler did. It makes me not miss Lechler so much, plus I like the way King sways back and forth before he punts. It's kind of cute.
Lastly, if I could say one thing to Terrelle Pryor, it would be "get rid of the ball." Seriously you aren't going to be able to maneuver your way out of all possible sack situations, just throw it out of bounds. Don't throw it across the field if you can't see your receivers, and definitely don't take the sack. I get that he is young and is learning, but I felt that he regressed in the 2nd half. I still think that he is definitely our future franchise QB.
Final Score 24-7 KC
With all that being said, I am grateful we have a bye next week! Happy Football everyone!

When my second son, Alex, was born, I didn't sleep for a year. An entire year. I know, I know, babies aren't exactly conducive to sleep, but my son, well, it was like he was allergic to sleep.
I tried everything. I threatened him with sleep books. I tried letting him cry it out (I think I cried harder than he did). I tried co-sleeping. I looked for sleep experts -- the type who'd come in and tell me what the hell I was doing wrong -- to no avail. (Apparently, those people only exist inside the Internet.) I had sun-blocking shades in his room. I had a rocking chair. We had a bedtime routine that I clung to like a drowning sailor.
And yet. Nothing. Every one to three hours, the kid was up and only Mommy would do. I remembered this is how they tortured POWs and began to see motherhood as a unique type of torture camp. The postpartum depression set in. Hard.
Blearily, I'd get out of bed in the morning, too tired to drive anywhere, the rooms spinning dangerously, and as I poured boiling hot coffee on my hand without noticing (or even caring), I realized something had to give.
I had elaborate fantasies of running away in the middle of the night, going where no baby would wake me up, demanding to nurse or bounce or rock or cuddle. Just one night in a hotel where no one could find me. The depression and the sleep deprivation turned me into a drooling zombie.
When he turned 1, my son started to have a less tenuous relationship with sleep. While it wasn't the 12 uninterrupted hours I so desperately craved, it became closer to 8 whole hours. Bliss.
The heavens, they opened up and smiled down upon me. Sleep, glorious sleep, was once again my best friend ... until I got pregnant with his sister mere months later.
Alex is 4 now and his relationship with sleep is still troublesome. He, like his mother, is an insomniac, which it makes me feel incredibly sorry for him. I know first-hand that insomnia is an asshole.
So I do my best to make sure Blankie is clean and dry for him to take to bed (God forbid anything ever happen to that nasty old thing), I rub his back for what feels like hours, trying to help him relax. I use up every ounce of my patience not to yell, "GO THE FUCK TO SLEEP" when he's up for the zillionth time that night.
My eldest, who is staring down the barrel of 10, has frequent sleepovers at Grandma's house. It's been a long-standing tradition for him and, being autistic, it's the kind of thing that -- in his mind -- is necessary.
I'd figured that my middle son would never, ever be able to participate. I imagined him going off to college with Blankie, begging his roommate to pat his butt to sleep every night. (I also imagine him going off to college in diapers because THAT is how well potty-training is going, but alas, I digress.)
It goes to show you never can tell.
Last weekend, for the first time ever, Alex had a sleepover at Grandma's. What's more? He's doing it AGAIN this weekend.
While on the one hand, I'm singing George Michael's "FREEDOM" while waving my bra in the air, on the other, I'm just a little bit sad to see the baby in him is gone. Forever.
I'll dwell just as long as it takes me to pour myself a nice glass of vodka and drink it in absolute peace and quiet. For the first time in years.
And I'm pretty sure that while he sleeps soundly, I'll be up half the night.
looooove this article...got a good laugh...my daughter is just like that.
OH WOW YOU POOR WOMAN!!!!!!! My daughter started doing sleepovers at grandparents house at about 2 months and has almost everyother weekend since. We know just how lucky and blessed we are to have such supportive parents. Plus we love that we get to have time to be together JUST as husband and wife, not mom and dad. It also gives us uninterupted time to catch up on our sleep/ housework or whatever needs done. Alas, I know eventually this will end, probably when we throw number two in the mix. But it has been great while it has lasted.
I'm 23 and I still sleep with my blankey :) I dont ever plan to stop <3 It doesnt hurt anyone and no one minds.

Did you take the AncestryDNA test? Do you have a lot of cousin matches? Are you not quite sure how you connect with each of those matches? Here is a plan to ensure that you get the most out of your AncestryDNA experience.
1. Remember how cousins are connected to you. First cousins mean you have a common grandparent. Second cousins mean you have a common great-grandparent. Third cousins mean you have a common great-great-grandparent. And so on. The more great-grandparents you have in your tree, the more likely you are to discover a common relative with some of your matches.
2. Do you have dates attached to each of your ancestors? Even if you don't know an exact date when an ancestor was born, estimate it based on the birth year of their oldest child. I typically use a date 20-22 years before that oldest child was born. You can put "about" and then the year so you know it is an estimate. Then include a note about why you chose that date so you can make adjustments as more information comes to light. Not sure who their oldest child is? Do a little more research.
3. Go back through your family tree and make sure you use the drop-down list to enter birth locations for each of your ancestors. This allows us to compare locations in your tree to the locations in the family trees of your matches. If you have "non-standardized" locations entered (for example, abbreviations for state names or missing counties), you may be missing out on match hints because our computers don't recognize the place.
4. Some people don't know how to attach their DNA results to their online tree so it looks like they have "No Family Tree." Click through to review the match anyway. You may discover that they actually DO have a family tree, but just haven't attached it yet. Better yet, send them a (kind) message and let them know that you'd love to learn more about your family connection. Invite them to attach their DNA results to their online tree so you will both have all of the automated tools at your disposal to help discover more. (Haven't attached your own results yet? Follow these simple instructions.)
.5. If someone has a private tree, especially if they are a close match (4th cousins or closer), send them a message and ask for permission to view their tree for a couple of days so you can work with them to discover your connection. If you have a private tree, be sure to check your message box and respond to messages in a timely manner.
6. Be patient! More than 200,000 people have taken the AncestryDNA test and more people are taking the test every day. New cousin matches are being added to your list each time one of those new people has DNA that connects with yours.
What are your best tips for finding success with your AncestryDNA matches?
Now, go have fun climbing your (genetic) family tree!

I have been researching using Ancestry.com for over 10 years now and got all the way back to God…. no joke — there are definite "glitches" in the system though and to really investigate my line would take thousands of dollars… How does this DNA test work and I would love to work with someone on mine. I love ancestry.com.
Great tips! I love that you included the non-connected and private trees…that can be so frustrating when you see a third or fourth cousin match and can't make the connection. Thanks!
My mother always told me that we have Indian blood. It was through her grandmother (who looked very much Indian) Is there any way to trace Indian relatives? That is how I got started in genealogy – looking for the Indian blood in our family. Thanks
I am somewhat confused about the DNA test. The nearest relative match is 13 generations from me. Is this someone that is just distantly related to me? Should I be looking for DNA test that are taken by closer relatives. Very confused.
Also, how many nationalities can be found by taking the test?
How can we or how could we attach our DNA test to multiple trees?
The issue I have with the DNA portion is not Ancestry's fault, it is all the cousins I have with private trees or not connected to a tree. I send messages to them and many times get a not back saying no I see not connection. So I stopped connecting them. Let them contact me.
Why can't we attach our DNA results to multiple trees?
Challenge: I also discovered that if you have an adopted parent who is listed in your tree as the preferred parent and then have a biological parent with tree information (which kind of remains hidden in Ancestry since about 2 or 3 years ago, that the DNA matching doesn't look at the "hidden" leg of the tree.
I was looking at locations when I discovered some locations that should have shown up for my son did not.
Otherwise I love the DNA information. My son matched a second cousin once removed (ancestry said 4-6) and she sent me some more photos of the ancestors.
My husband and I did the 23andme thing several years ago before it was doing the relative match for medical purposes. He discovered his biological father via DNA by matching a first cousin when they started the relative matching. People on ancestry are much more willing to share family information. I just ordered another test for one of my family members and will order another one in the near future.
People should be aware that they may encounter surprises that they didn't expect, but DNA does bring out the truth.
I have been doing family trees for 60 years and every day I am leraning something new abt the information I have and how to use it. Thank you Christa for this article. Just wish I could get into Ancestry.com often. I have been unable to check most of my matches on 3 DNA samples as I can not get into DNA section.
I subscribed to Genealogical helper from 1956 and donated ll the old ones to local library.
Crista: Have loved using Ancestry and Family Tree Maker (many versions; 2014 the current one) for quite some time. For the most part, I simply love it. Upon reading your blog "How to find Y-DNA or mtDNA test results on Ancestry.com", I constantly run into a problem! When I hover over the DNA tab, I do not see "Learn about AncestryDNA" nor do I see "Y-DNA and mtDNA tests". I had originally been able to access the results I wanted; i.e., haplogroup(s) and the colorized, nicely spaced/presented charts of same. I had printed them out; quite a lot of pages, to be sure and have not been able to dig deep enough to retrieve them. All I get now is hundreds of pages in black and white, the columns do not line up, and the information looks 'old school' to me – not at all helpful! I have used Excel databases and charts as well as PowerPoint presentations extensively during my 'work' life; I know how to 'read' charts; but feel with all the advances in technology during the last 13 years, one should be able to retrieve and print out the many wonderful, colorful charts on Ancestry.com. the way they are presented. I do get the maps and the information of where my ancestors came from, percentages, emails from 'cousins', etc., which is great. However, I would also like to retrieve the charts, etc. as described above. Would typing the customer number from my DNA test be the way to go? Thanks for all your expertise – it has been extremely helpful to me. Also, thanks for the ability to 'print out' your latest blog, "Making More Family Connections with Ancestry DNA". I much prefer to print out the instructions, rather than watch the video; very difficult to remember all of it; much better to be able to read it as I work. Thanks again …
I'm with Jeff about the multiple trees. My trees are split up for personal reasons. I'd connect them all to my DNA profile, but you can only "connect" one tree. Therefore, I don't have any connected. I created "public" versions of my trees (names, dates, places), specifically so I could share them, and to help others see if we have a connection. I keep a private version with more info (photos or copies of documents I've paid for), which I (usually) share with relatives who have connected with me and are willing to collaborate and/or communicate.
When will we have better search tools to analyze our DNA matches? The current tool is much too basic and limited. I am very disappointed. For example, it would be nice to have a tool to show how many matches I have in common with a match. Just searching by username and location is not enough.
I agree, the method of which we have to view our DNA matches is rather lengthy. Additionally, why are people taking the test, then not responding when you send them a nice little note with a subject line " DNA 3rd cousin match"? I just dont understand the lack of responses. I see my 3rd – 4th cousin matches logging in each day yet they don't bother to respond. Only have 6, 3rd – 4th cousins. It would be nice also if Ancestry would find a way to link their past DNA test results with this new test. Since the testing has gone on for many years, I doubt the people who had the earlier more expensive DNA tests want to take another to hook up with the new DNA results. I did not realize the results would be limited like this.
Christa – Is there a way to compare two individual DNA tests to see if they are related? My father-in-law has cousins that have shown up as cousins to his wife. Can I compare his results to my mother-in-law to see if they are related – I am the administrator for both of their tests. I would also like to compare my father with my father in law because we have reason to think they have a common ancestor, but it would be 9 generations back. Would that even show up as a connection? Are these comparisons already made between the different test that are administered by the same Ancestry member?

Malkin misunderstands her subject. Obama called for higher taxes on wealthy INDIVIDUALS. Almost all of Malkin's examples are about CORPORATIONS. Small wonder that Malkin doesn't understand the difference, since republican talking points for years have conflated the terms "wealthy individual" and "small business."

MCCS Rural Initiative
MCCS Makes Major Investments in Programs Serving Rural Maine
The MCCS Rural Initiative: 2012 update
During the summer and fall of 2007, MCCS President John Fitzsimmons met with focus groups of rural business and community leaders to explore how Maine's community college system could further assist in strengthening the state's rural economy.
On December 19, 2007, President Fitzsimmons released a report detailing the findings from the focus groups and announcing investments totaling $6.6 million in the programs and services the state's community colleges provide to rural Maine.
Fueled by a $3.5 million challenge grant from the Bernard Osher Foundation, the investments will enable the colleges to dramatically increase the number of community college scholarships available to rural Maine residents, expand distance learning opportunities, and increase rural high school students' access to the community colleges.
Major gifts from TD Banknorth and the Betterment Fund have helped launch Bring College to ME, a program designed to deliver targeted community college degree programs on an intermittent basis to rural parts of the state.
The investments are being made in direct response to the growing gaps in educational attainment and income between urban and rural Maine. As Fitzsimmons noted in making the announcement: "Rural Maine is facing a significant workforce development challenge; we are making a commitment to be rural Community Connections in building an educated and skilled workforce."

f*cking lame!

@moviefreak97 I am honestly not expecting it to hold a candle to the original film. I just hope that it is at least a fun film to watch, unlike the remake of Fame which came out two years ago. This movie seems to be filled with a lot of energy from the cast and they have a great director on top of that so this does have a chance at being good. Sure this is a pointless remake but at least it seems like the makers are attempting at making a good film. Thats really all i want, a good film.
3 years agoby @moviemaniac66Flag
I just watched the trailer and i think that it looks pretty good.

@moviemaniac66 You aren't alone. I really enjoy the original, but it's not one of those films that is stuck in its time where I couldn't enjoy it today.

@moviemaniac im excited a little bit i really enjoyed the original .. and i'm somewhat looking forward to this

I like it. i think I am the only person on this site who is actually looking forward to this film. I am not super excited but since i love the original film, this has me intrigued.

How many ways can you say "waste of studio budget?" oh wait I know, one way..."Footloose remake"?? Paramount should spend money on winnig back Indiana Jones fans for a fifth and "best of them all" kind of final installment. Who'll sing the title track, Justin Bieber?

I love this dish in real life, but I feel bad everytime I finish this queset knowing I picked mushrooms from the SEWER that was growing from Ronin's FECES. That and when I have to gather wine from half full glasses...hope no one had a cold sore!
Is there anyway you could so some daily's that require some thought to them? Like any tricks to the harpoon one for the Ebon Blade in Icecrown, or better yet the mount ones like defending Wyrmrest or Ace's High (which takes a precise rotation) in Coldarra? Maybe even tips on how to beat the achievment timer? Thanks!
I agree. They've kinda mixed them - before, you could usually farm the mats, make the food, then just turn it right into the Rokk right away when you got the quest each day. These, you either have to collect around Dalaran or below. These will get insanely boring by the time I buy all these recipes. Or maybe they can add more quests...throw 5 or 10 more in the mix instead of the same 5.

Today, I read about a project to restore Johnny Cash's house. The headline produced a knee-jerk sense of dread until I realized the house in question was his "boyhood" home in Dyess, Arkansas and not his famed lake house in Hendersonville, Tennessee…or what's left of it anyway. The lake house…
Beautiful. Thanks, Paul.
why did i end up being the most ugly annoying and untalented of all of my friends
Pro Tip to all young ladies (and gents, and everyone else, too) out there: we all feel this way, some of the time. The trick is to continue to hang with our fabulous friends, and yet realize that we're pretty fucking fabulous ourselves, too.

We miss you, man.
So, um…
Just realized how to check messages. Clearly I don't spend enough time on Tumblr. Yeah. Thanks to the three of you who wrote me; I'm sincerely honored.

Happy birthday from Kunming, China, my friend. I'm a little late, but ah well. Hugs and kisses to you and the Mrs. XOXOXO

Fancy conference starts with dinner.
Getting ready by painting my nails and watching Mythbusters.
If I had my druthers (isn't that a great word/defunct southern fastfood chain), I'd go home after work, take off my pants, and attempt to watch the Indiana Jones Trilogy until I passed out sometime before the first 'dotted red line plane trip across the map.'
Instead, I'm packing for yet one more…
Dear Mr. Druthers: remember that you get to have coffee and a chorizo omelette with me at the end of it. We could reenact the Shanghai scene if it'll make you feel better — you bring the tux, I'll bring the spangled dress.

C2E2 | IDW, Dark Horse announce a metric ton of new stuff
I think IDW and Dark Horse are having some sort of competition at C2E2 this weekend to see who can overwhelm my email box with the most press releases, or at least that's what it seemed like last night when a ton of press releases pop up around the same time from both companies. Here's a rundown of what we've heard from both of them at the show thus far …
• Both companies announced they've picked up some new licenses. As I noted yesterday, Dark Horse will publish Wendy and Richard Pini's Elfquest starting later this year, and they've also picked up the license for new Halo comics. IDW, meanwhile, has picked up the license to the Jay Ward characters, with plans for series Mr. Peabody & Sherman and Rocky & Bullwinkle next year. Also, two of IDW's other licensed titles will meet up in Mars Attacks Judge Dredd by Al Ewing and John McCrea. The first issue arrives in September.
• Both companies are also reaching into comics' past to bring back some titles we haven't seen in awhile. IDW announced that they'll release deluxe hardcovers of Christian Gossett's The Red Star this fall. They're also bringing back Zombie War by Kevin Eastman, Tom Skulan and Eric Talbot in October. The original series was published by FantaCo and Tundra back in 1993. Dark Horse is resurrecting Geof Darrow's Shaolin Cowboy, which was originally published by Burlyman Entertainment.
Attacking 'Mars Attacks IDW'
IDW may be one of the Big Five publishers in the direct market — that is, one of the five publishers whose titles are listed separately from those of the hoi polloi in Diamond Comic Distributors' Previews catalog. But unlike the Biggest Two, IDW's line consists mainly of comics based on a variety of licensed concepts*, and therefore do not feature shared settings like the DC Universe or the Marvel Universe.
You'd think that would prohibit the company from doing the sorts of line-wide crossover stories that DC and Marvel have been pumping out with regularity, but IDW has found a pretty clever way to have its licensed comics cake and eat its intra-company crossovers as well, by dreaming up a fairly generic threat, and then having that threat appear in a bunch of unrelated comics whose characters never really meet.
Rather than all the characters teaming up to fight the same threat on the same battlefield at the same time, as in your Crisis on Infinite Earths or Civil War or whatnot, IDW's crossovers are a bit more like individual battles in large-scale wars taking place in different dimensions.
So, for example, 2011′s Infestation crossover pitted zombies from the publisher's Zombies Vs. Robots comics against characters from G.I. Joe, Transformers, The Ghostbusters and Star Trek, in two-issue miniseries set in different universes. That was followed by Infestation 2, in which Lovecraftian space-god-monster-things invaded the home universes of G.I. Joe, Transformers, Dungeons & Dragons, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and 30 Days of Night.
More recently, IDW published a much smaller-scale, simpler crossover story of sorts in Mars Attacks …, in which the little green skull-faced men of the 1960s Topps collectible cards (and 1996 Tim Burton movie) "invaded" comics featuring a comically diverse group of licensed characters. For the more patient among us, it arrived in trade format this month, in a collection titled Mars Attacks IDW.
New 'Judge Minty' trailer teases fan film's web release
I've been writing about the Judge Minty short film since 2010, when after seeing the first teaser trailer I made the observation "these days Judge Dredd would be totally do-able on a BBC budget." I still haven't managed to see the bloomin' thing yet, despite it becoming a U.K. comic convention staple since it premiered at the Leeds Film Festival last November.
Well, the wait is nearly over, as the production team has announced that it'll soon be free to view on YouTube and Vimeo, without giving us an actual date yet ("in April/May" they vaguely state, the teasing sods). They've released a new extended trailer for the project to whet our appetites.
One thing this trailer adds is some great music. I'm no soundtrack expert, so for all I know it might be borrowed from elsewhere, but I do know that it reminds me of Jerry Goldsmith's avant garde score for the original Planet of the Apes. And I still think that with a little ambition and imagination, Judge Dredd could work better on TV than in films.
This Judge Death cosplay is absolutely terrifying
I saw this, via the Twitter feed of PJ Holden, and shivered. There's lots of people cosplaying as Judge Dredd these days — in both flavors, comic and movie — but I've never before seen anyone make an attempt at his most iconic enemy, Judge Death.
Well, that's changed, as DeviantArt member "warrior1944" (presumably called Peter Olsson in real life, but it's hard to tell from his site) has done a helluva job of capturing the essence of Brian Bolland's design. Of course, we should all be at least a little bit worried that someone could be so inspired by one of the most chilling mass-murderers in comics, but that's really between this kid and his psychiatrist.
Updated: 2000AD have been in touch to point out that these costumes are being sold without approval or license. While they've no issue with cosplayers dressing up as 2000AD characters, infringing on their copyright with the commercial sale of costumes is another matter altogether. The Rebellion folks are known for their close relationship with the official licensee on these matters, Planet Replicas. Presumably, all parties are taking action on this right now.
Talking to Kathryn Symes, '2000AD's' 'Reprographics Droid'
In comics, just as in television or film, there are countless unsung production staff tirelessly toiling to keep us entertained. To use a sporting analogy, working in the reprographics department of a comic publisher is the goalkeeper's job: You rarely get the praise for keeping a clean sheet, but you're the first one to get the blame if it all goes wrong. Meanwhile, the writers and the artists are at the other end, scoring all the goals, and getting all the glory.
Doing this often-thankless task in the skeleton crew that produces 2000AD is Kathryn "Kat" Symes. One thing the small backroom staff at their Oxford, England, base are known to do very well these days is manage the amazing back-catalog of material the title has accrued during its 35 years of continuous publication. If you're a seasoned 2000AD spotter, you'll have noticed how they've been reprinting a lot of strips from the early 1990s recently, a time sometimes known as "2000AD's brown period." It was an era when a post-Bisley trend for painted artwork coincided with too-absorbent paper stock, and a steep learning curve for the staff as it settled in to being a full-color magazine after years of primarily black and white, which led to an awful lot of muddy-looking comics.
Symes seems to be on a single-handed quest to redeem an era of neglected comics through her work. In this interview with ROBOT 6, she gives a tremendous insight into what now goes on behind the scenes in bringing a comic to print, and provides some great examples of how her nuts-and-bolts work with scanners and image manipulation software can breath new life into the old, the faded and the damaged material in 2000AD's archives.
Comics A.M. | Eisner entries due; Morrison talks Wonder Woman
Awards | A last-minute reminder: Today is the deadline for Eisner Awards submissions. [Eisner Awards]
Creators | Grant Morrison looks back on his run on Action Comics, which ends today with the release of Issue 18, and touches upon Multiversity and his long-discussed Wonder Woman project: "This is some of the most fun I've had in a long time, because it's a completely different type of comic book. Usually I don't do masses of research, but for Wonder Woman, I've actually been working my way through the entire history of feminism. I want this to be fucking serious, you know? I want this to be really, really good, to reflect not only what women think, but what men think of women. I'm trying to do something really different from what's been done with the character before. That one's been amazing fun, because it's nothing like anything I've ever done before." [Entertainment Weekly]
Cosplayer-on-creator violence at London Super Con
The London Super Con happened over the weekend, complete with a sizable roll call of legends attending (including Neal Adams, George Perez, Bill Sienkiewicz and Brian Bolland). These days, it wouldn't be a U.K. comic convention without a fresh batch of photographs turning up in the Twitter stream of 2000AD super-fan John Burdis and friends dragged up as Mega City One judges, administering some on-the-spot justice to his fellow convention goers. This time, there were some familiar faces to be spotted amongst his willing victims: There are literally hundreds of shots like these on Burdis's Facebook gallery. Also seen at Facebook: a very jolly-looking Batman sharing a joke with Judge Court.
What Are You Reading? with Tim Lattie
Welcome to What Are You Reading?, where the Robot 6 crew shares their picks for who we think should play a young Han Solo. Of course, we unanimously chose Nathan Fillion, so instead we'll talk about what comics we've been reading. Joining us today is special guest Tim Lattie, the creator of Night Stars. Tim is currently running a Kickstarter to raise funds to publish it, so head over there and check it out.

The Dredd prop auction has begun
2012 will be remembered in some quarters as the year of some of the most overrated comic book movies ever. Fancy grabbing yourself a piece of permanent reminder from easily the best and most underrated of last year's crop? Then eBay is the place for you, as DNA Films and the Prop Store are auctioning off over 200 props and costumes from Dredd over the next fortnight. In time you'll be able to buy yourself a (hopefully fully working) Lawmaster motorbike, but the first batch includes the only complete Judge Dredd costume that'll be available in the auction.
No word from anyone involved yet, but this sale may well be tacit confirmation that DNA has no intention of developing a sequel to the film, despite its recent success both as a download and in DVD and Blu-Ray sales, a second bite of the cherry that will probably result in putting the movie in profit after its initially disappointing international box office takings.
Exclusive Preview | Judge Dredd #2
The second issue of IDW Publishing's Judge Dredd doesn't just feature the continuation of Duane Swierczynski and Nelson Daniel's look at the early days of Mega-City One's toughest lawman, it also contains a treat for longtime fans of the character (and British comics in general): a back-up story illustrated by none other than Brendan McCarthy!
IDW has provided ROBOT 6 with a preview of the main story, as well as an exclusive look at two pages from the Swierczynski/McCarthy strip. Judge Dredd #2 arrives later this month.
Food or Comics? | Black beans or Black Beetle

It's beginning to look a lot like the final Wednesday before Christmas (and the final full one of the year), so with my $15, I'd get some gifts for myself that I know I'll enjoy: the second issue of Chris Roberson (and now, Dennis Calero)'s Masks (Dynamite, $3.99), the third issue of Brandon Graham's Multiple Warheads: Alphabet to Infinity (Image, $2.99) and Francesco Francavilla's The Black Beetle: Night Shift #0 (Dark Horse, $2.99). Also, I suspect that I'll be unable to resist the first part of Vertigo's adaptation of Django Unchained (DC/Vertigo, $3.99), too.
If I had $30, I'd add another pile of favorites to that list: Judge Dredd #2 (IDW, $3.99), the by-now-amazingly-late-but-still-enjoyable Bionic Woman #6 (Dynamite, $3.99), Hawkeye #6 (Marvel Comics, $2.99), and the latest issue of the always-wonderful Saga (Image, $2.99).
When it comes to splurging, however, then I'm going to be playing it relatively cheaply: That Star Trek 100-Page Winter Spectacular (IDW, $7.99) feels like it might offer just the kind of space-age cheer I'll be grateful for by mid-week … Happy Warpspeed Holidays, all.
Dave Sim covers Judge Dredd: Year One
The oddest piece of news I've seen today is that Dave Sim has drawn an alternate cover for the first issue of IDW Publishing's Judge Dredd: Year One. The comic's creative team will please 2000AD fans, as it features current wearer of Tharg's rubber-mask-and-boiler-suit-combo Matt Smith as writer, underrated "Simping Detective" artist Simon Coleby on interiors, and the great Greg Staples painting the regular covers. Staples is no stranger to the young Joe Dredd, essaying the character as an actor in the Judge Minty fan film, a recent hit at U.K. comic conventions.
This is, I presume, another welcome side effect of Sim's recent deal to bring assorted Cerebus projects to IDW. Sim's detente with modern comics continues apace. See both covers, Sims' and Staples' almost-ludicrously detailed version, below.

If I had $15, my Wednesday haul would start with Glory #30 (Image, $3.99). This series has been great, and since Kris Anka began doing covers, it's gone to very great. Now, seeing New Yorker cartoonist Roman Muradov coming in to do a story makes it potentially even more, well, great. I'm psyched to see Glory face off against her sister, and Campbell's depiction of both has been mesmerizing. Next I'd pick up Comeback #1 (Image, $3.50), featuring letterer Ed Brisson making his major writing debut. The cover design by Michael Walsh is impeccable, and the concept of time traveling for grieving loved ones is a fascinating concept. Next up, I'd get a Marvel double – Wolverine and the X-Men #21 (Marvel, $3.99) and Hawkeye #4 (Marvel, $2.99). This carnie issue of Wolverine and the X-Men is intriguing; it's going out on a limb, but after what Jason Aaron and Nick Bradshaw have done so far, I trust them. With Hawkeye, I'm slightly hesitant to pick up an issue knowing David Aja isn't drawing it, but Javier Pulido has the potential to be an ideal temporary substitute.
If I had $30, I'd look back on my $15 and reluctantly put Hawkeye #4 back on the shelf to free up money for Derek Kirk Kim's Tune, Book 1: Vanishing Point (First Second, $16.99). Man oh man, do I love Kim's work, and seeing the previews for this online makes me see a honing of the artist's style akin to the way Bryan O'Malley did between Lost At Sea and Scott Pilgrim. Count me in.
If I could splurge, I'd take a chance on the anthology Digestate (Birdcage Bottom Books, $19.95). I'm no foodie like C.B. Cebulski, but I like food and I like anthologies so this is right up my alley; especially when the chefs include Jeffrey Brown and Liz Prince. Where's my order?
What Are You Reading? with Salgood Sam
Hello and welcome to What Are You Reading? Today our guest is Salgood Sam, who has just relaunched his independent personal anthology series Revolver. He is also completing the last chapter of a graphic novel called Dream Life after a successful Indiegogo funding drive to finance it. He also publishes the Canadian-centric comics blog Sequential. As he told me, he "usually has too many projects going on and does not get enough sleep."

Big week for Brendan McCarthy fans
Good news for fans of the lesser-spotted psychedelic comics legend Brendan McCarthy. This Wednesday will see the release of IDW Publishing's The Zaucer of Zilk #1 in the United States, and in the United Kingdom, the new issue of The Judge Dredd Megazine (#329) comes festooned in a wraparound image of Judge Anderson. This cover is something of a warm-up for McCarthy, as he has an Anderson back-up strip in Issue 2 of IDW's upcoming Judge Dredd comic, written by Duane Swierczynski. Images from both below.
Anyone who missed the U.K. publication of The Zaucer of Zilk is in for a real treat. McCarthy says the work has "been described as Harry Potter meets Yellow Submarine. .. Mix a bit of David Lynch in there and I'll go along with that." I'd throw in a recommendation for fans of Dr. Strange (it's a massive Ditko fan doing a story about a dimension's Sorcerer Supreme, after all), and McCarthy's previous cynical hipster superheroes, like Paradax, Zenith and Rogan Gosh.
