Chapter 62 Reviews
Patrick finds a friend in Joe. Written by Sam. R&R please!
"Havin' smoke," Joe replied, "thought you gave that up?" I questioned him quietly. Joe hesitated and then cleared his throat. "Never mind me, what are you doing? Making a run from it? Sick of having Pete's dick so close to you yet you're not allowed tou-"
"JOE!" I cried, absolutely mortified. My cheeks flushed the brightest red while slapping the younger male across the top of his head. Joe smirked gleefully. "Leave it out," I muttered. Joe dropped his smile and shot me a concerned look. "Tell me," he pressured; but his voice was soft and low. "B-brendon's asking Pete out," I choked out, tears falling onto my grazed knees. Joe sat down beside me and wrapped an arm around my shoulder. "Hey, hey, don't cry man," he soothed, tickling my cheek with his fingers. Then we just looked at each other; blue against blue. We stared hard, moving closer but not realizing, not until his nose brushed against mine, and then he furiously shoved his tongue into my mouth, and my fingers found his shirt, and they crept up his back, and he was moving to my neck, and I was so confused, and I couldn't take this all in and then-
"That is disgusting," said an unfamiliar voice. An early morning jogger had stumbled across our embracement. "Well then fuck off, you old fucking hag," Joe said, propping himself up onto his knees. I scrambled upwards and blinked a couple of times. The sun was peeking through some grey clouds. Our elderly company looked disgraced; but said no more and tottered on.
Joe reached into his pocket and took out a cigarette and a lighter. He took a deep drag and closed his eyes. I stayed completely still; he seemed on edge, as if a sudden move would set him off, into a rage. My head was spinning. I kept stealing glances at him; but he kept his eyes shut. Then, he hastily placed his hand on mine. "Forget Wentz," he said: "he's a total cunt anyway, 'Trick. I've known him a lot longer than you," he smirked a bitter smirk, of what felt like resentment. I got a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach. What on earth did that mean? His kiss still lingered on my lips; and I had a million questions to ask him. I took a shot; "are you gay, Joe?" His reply was a continuation of muteness.
We walked, still in silence, to my house. The sun was fully risen now, and it burned our vision of the immediate distance. I knocked on the door, and had no fear of waking my parents. There was only one thing on my mind right now.
No answer. All the curtains were pulled back; and the car was gone. I muttered a swear, and rummaged in my rucksack for my keys. "Coming in?" I asked Joe hesitantly, holding the door askew. He put out another cigarette and nodded keenly.
"You can tell me."
"I know I can, but I'm not, Patrick. I'm not."
"Then why the fuck did you kiss me?!" I shouted wearily. I was upset, and angry. My voice was breaking; "do you just want to mess me up even more, Joe?"
"No Patrick! For fuck sake, I just want you to see-"
"I JUST WANTED YOU TO KNOW THAT THERE'S MORE GUYS THAN PETE, OKAY?" he roared. I shot back immediately, "oh, so you, an apparent straight guy, decides to grope me and shove his tongue down my throat?"
"I'm sorry," he whispered. "No, no you're not," I retorted. "Not for that, 'Trick, for this," he said, and embraced me once more, his kisses soft, and loving, and I kissed him back, because I just couldn't help myself.

2 Oversold Stocks That Could Bounce Higher
Cameron International
Cameron International ( CAM) is a provider of flow equipment products, systems and services to worldwide oil, gas and process industries. This stock closed up 2.2% at $54.44 in Monday's trading session.
Monday's Volume: 11.19 million
Three-Month Average Volume: 3.09 million
Volume % Change: 294%
>>5 Stocks Under $10 Set to SoarFrom a technical perspective, CAM bounced modestly higher here right above its recent low of $52.50 with heavy upside volume. This stock recently gapped down sharply from over $63 to below $52.50 with heavy downside volume. That move pushed shares of CAM into oversold territory, since its current relative strength index reading is 31.60. Oversold can always get more oversold, but it's also an area a stock can bounce sharply higher from. The action in CAM on Monday could be signaling that this stock is ready to bounce and see an end in the short-term to its downside volatility. Traders should now look for long-biased trades in CAM as long as it's trending above Monday's low of $53.02 or above $52.50 and then once it sustains a move or close above Monday's high of $54.67 with volume that hits near or above 3.09 million shares. If we get that move soon, then CAM will set up to bounce higher and potentially tag $57 to its 50-day moving average at $59.39.

Vikings Close Out Regular Season With 10-3 Win Against Royals
SIOUX FALLS, SD — Augustana baseball closed out the regular season in style on Friday night with a 10-3 win over Grace University in non-conference action. With the victory, the Vikings improved to 36-14 on the year, while the Royals fell to 25-15 with the loss.
Ryan Hamilton (5-1) picked up his fifth win of the season for Augustana. Hamilton gave the Vikings two innings on the hill, and allowed one run on two hits. The Spearfish native also fanned two in the contest.
Jacob James gave the Vikings a good day at the plate with a 3-for-4 performance that included scoring three runs and hitting two doubles.
Tony Viger went a perfect 2 for 2 and had two RBI and scored a career-tying four runs for Augustana. Viger smashed his NCAA-leading 26th double of the year in the game.
Kye Winter had a two-hit day for the Vikings, his 15th multi-hit game on the year.
Grace jumped out to a 2-1 lead in the top of the second inning after Andres Enriquez doubled to left center to score David Vega. It would be the Royals only lead of the ballgame.
Augustana answered back by tying the ballgame up at 2-2 in the bottom half of the third on a Viger sac fly to right field that scored James.
The Vikings made their move in the middle innings, scoring seven runs combined in the fifth and sixth innings on five hits, capped off by Jack Goihl's double down the left field line that drove in Alex Fink, making it 9-3 Augustana.
The Vikings pushed their lead to seven runs in the bottom of the eighth after Alex Beals got the easiest RBI there is to get by getting hit by a pitch with the bases loaded to bring Viger across the plate and making it 10-3.
Viger closed down the game for good in the top of the ninth to pick up his first save of 2014, giving up just one hit inning. The Sioux Falls native got Carlos Ochoa to ground out to Fink at third base to end the game, giving Augustana the victory.
The Vikings return to action on Wednesday with the first round of the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference Tournament at 2 p.m.

If/when I have a Christmas tree, this is what the topper will look like
He's got arguably the most recognizable and trusted face in TV news today, and it certainly doesn't hurt that said face is easy on the eyes. He's Anderson Cooper, the intrepid CNN journalist who pops up to tell it like it is in the latest global hotspot, yet still has time to jet back to the States to moderate political debates or promote good causes. Take a look back at the fascinating life of a fascinating man — the Silver Fox.
That beautiful face was recently punched and beaten in Egypt. Sad! The fact that a man who grew up with all the privilege in the world goes out there and does real reporting that can endanger his livelihood and not complain about it makes me admire him even more.
Never forget.
I love this man.

Vegan MoFo Day 14: Milwaukee vegan bake sale #2 – recap!
Sunday, November 14, 2010 1 Comment
After a marathon couple of days doing the one-woman event planner thing and getting totally dissed by a Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel photographer who was very insistent that I was not actually the person who organized the bake sale, I woke up this morning sick as a dog. As such, making, photographing, writing or reading about delicious vegan food hasn't really been on my radar screen — I didn't even change out of pajamas or leave the couch today, let alone go outside or spend my usual 3-4 hours in the kitchen. To be perfectly honest, most of my caloric intake has consisted of leftover Autumn Clouds, Naked Juice Gold Machine, and tangerine flavor Emergen-C. Now that's what I call a mise en place!
Fortunately, I have some photos from yesterday to share, and a final list of everything that was for sale! I didn't get a chance to photograph everything before it sold out, especially because the first hour or two was almost unbelievably busy, but I tried to capture as much as I could.
What we had on hand yesterday:
chocolate-dipped pretzel rods
rolled in peanuts, plain, or rolled in coconut
chocolate chip cookie bars
(using Ener-G as the egg replacer)
ginger-pumpkin scones
with or without Ghirardelli chocolate chips
whole wheat chocolate chip pecan cookies
blueberry chocolate thumbprint cookies
chocolate fudge oatmeal cookies
with or without raisins
raw gluten-free truffles rolled in coconut
chocolate shortbread scones with caramelized bananas
peanut butter cupcakes with chocolate ganache
raspberry jelly donut cupcakes
Not pictured:
» spicy Wisconsin-grown pickled green and yellow wax beans
» pickled Wisconsin-grown hot banana peppers
» pickled Wisconsin-grown carrot and daikon radish
» tart Wisconsin-grown cran-applesauce
» magic chocolate bundt cake
» chocolate chip peanut butter cookies
» pumpkin pie brownies
» chocolate mint cupcakes
» walnut and cashew caramel turtles
As you can see, veganism clearly involves a lot of denial, disappointment, and dietary hardship. When it comes to dessert, all we can really do is suck it up and settle for chocolates, scones, cupcakes, cookies, brownies, candy, and truffles. And alfalfa sprouts, or whatever it is we actually eat.
I can't wait to do another bake sale — look for more information on the main page of the site for the next one; I'm hoping to do a spring-themed seed swap and seedling sale along with the usual assortment of volunteer-baked treats.
THANK YOU to the amazing volunteer bakers: Sarah, Dyan, Frank, Katie, Erin, Lissa, Mandi, Amy, and everyone's favorite Kelly!
Tonight's dinner, courtesy of omni boyfriend, the best vegan cook I have ever met: balsamic farfalle pasta, pan-seared broccoli and spinach with toasted cashews, grilled Simple Soyman herb-style tofu, maple and brandy-glazed roasted chestnuts!
And now, off to watch The Walking Dead, chug NyQuil, and hope I feel better in time for work tomorrow.

A Lovely Little Sequence Deleted From AVENGERS - Featuring Captain America!!
I love this sequence.
When looking at THE AVENGERS as a whole, I can see why this material was excised from the film...it doesn't quite see to gel with the narrative going on around it. But this doesn't change the power and breadth of what's happening within this very small block of time.
When THE WINTER SOLDIER Captain America movie sequel rolls around, I certainly don't want to watch two hours of Steve Rogers moping about - but I do sincerely hope some of the heart and soul suggested by this Whedon-helmed sequence makes it into that next picture.
This comes to us via Latino Review...I'm assuming this is one of the deleted scenes that'll be featured on the movie's ever encroaching home video release.

by james
the deleted scenes seemed to have a heavier tone than the final cut. The scene with the files and the boxing could have remained and just cut the middle section. It's a little thing I know, but I like that the scene spends a little time with Rogers' alienation. The "I get that reference" moment is too light hearted to play as anything but a "oh look Cap is out of time and place." Ah well. Perhaps Winter Soldier is the time and place for dealing with such stuff.

...that that's the waitress that Cap ends up saving at the end of the movie. The one who gets interviewed by the press.

The Wachowskis were offered Justice League
by Cobb05
I will say this, if they do it, there's a chance it could kick major ass. I actually think they would be better suited to do a stand alone franchise. I'm not sure how Justice League would fit into the DC universe. They won't have Bale or the new Superman. Ryan Reynolds won't be Green Lantern. So if they pull off a great Justice League movie, I wonder how it wll effect Green Lantern, Flash and Wonder Woman. And would there be multiple Justice League movies?

Loved it!
by DeckardB26354
Wished it had stayed in.
Aug. 29, 2012, 11:28 a.m. CST
I think scenes like this should have stayed...
by Hellstrom
Its these moments that let us invest in the characters so we care more when the crap hits the fan...also let the movie breathe. Thing is, imho, if these scenes are front loaded in the movie vs. being spread out a bit then it can make the film feel "off" or overlong. I'd like to see the extra scene with Stanton and Ruffalo.
Aug. 29, 2012, 11:29 a.m. CST

Scene Had More 'Heart' Than The Entire Film (even with the additional Acura placement).
by Sluggolicious
Loved Avengers, saw it twice, but this 3 minutes (even with the anvil-over-the-head product placement) was just beautiful. It showed a whole other side to Whedon's direction and I wish it had stayed in the film. Narrative shmarrative. This was shot, edited and scored absolutely perfectly.

What a good movie. Can't wait to buy it and Dark Knight Rises so I can watch them over and over. Really liked this scene, but it would have bogged the theatrical cut down. Good choice to cut it out, but a nice extra scene to include.

this was actually good. not like that Maria Hill crap that was cut. It give us a sense of feeling (displacement) from Caps view.

... I can see how it might have slowed the film down, but I wouldn't mind an extended cut that put it back in. I particularly liked the touch of Cap talking to the same waitress he rescued at the end of the film... Cap loses his mask when saving her so I'm wondering if maybe there was some extra stuff also cut from the end where the waitress recognises him and then pretends not to know who he is when she's talking to the press. The decision to cut the scene must have been made relatively early during post as they didn't put the Stark tower in.

One more thing...
by photoboy
I hope there are more scenes like that for all the characters (especially Banner), but preferably nothing extra for Stark. I really do like RDJ and his portrayal of Stark but I thought he had a bit too much time in the movie compared to everyone else. It would be great to get an extended cut that gives all the other characters a bit more screen time.

I think the way to fix the costume is to give him standard issue combat pants.
by whatevillurks
The pants in TFA looked like WWII pants just painted blue. The Avenger pants looked like sweats.
Aug. 29, 2012, 12:25 p.m. CST
GREAT Scene...
by Read and Shut Up
...I can see why it was cut (running time), but it really shows Cap as a man lost in time. And Stan's cameo was awesome.

Peggy Carter...
by simhedges
Lives in Winchester, has a VERY odd address for England, and a London phone number.

sluggolicious - Acura product placement
by Smartacus
I think the reason I didn't mind it was that the scene itself took me back to TFA when he went to the Stark Exposition and saw the car that wouldn't need any tires in the future. You could almost see him noting that the car in the display window still had tires.

Not buying it... it was just too blatant an ad for my taste! But you make a good point.

Good stuff- sorry it was cut
by krabklaw
Aug. 29, 2012, 12:46 p.m. CST
That was really strong
by Andrew Coleman
Wish they kept it. I'm sorry but tone has nothing to do with it... Banner's entrance wasn't exactly light hearted. All of that really worked. In less than 3 minutes they let you into what Cap was feeling. Also it connected you with the waitress who in the final cut is randomly tossed in at the end. Wish they kept this since it makes the film stronger.

Pretty good scene I understand why it got cut though.
by Wcwlkr
The movie was already pretty lengthy but it would've been a really nice scene to have. And yes Stan "The Man" Lee's cameo was way better than what it turned out to be.
Aug. 29, 2012, 1:12 p.m. CST
That was the scene I wanted to see in Avengers
by Steve Lamarre
too bad it was "deleted" but at least it exists. Dude! Cap! Fucking call Peggy! So what if she's all old.

That's the little girl from Growing Pains in case you didn't know. Anyhow...

So Cap called Peggy and bangs her. He complains that she's really dry...
by Domi'sInnerChild
Peggy leaves the room, comes back a few minutes later and they get back to it. It's great. Cap asks how she did it. Peggy responds, "I picked the scabs and let the puss run out".
Aug. 29, 2012, 1:16 p.m. CST
That woulda been the best scene in the movie, in my opinion
by lightwriter
Other than Stan Lee, its a quiet bit that relies on the actor(s), the lighting and the music to make the audience feel something for what we're watching. Nice sense of depth and reflection. Sadly, they were right - it totally doesn't fit with the theatrical cut.
Aug. 29, 2012, 1:27 p.m. CST
i like Cap as the lonesome man out of time
by smudgewhat
it adds weight to the proceedings. too bad they couldn't have used a bit of this in the movie. i think it would have been a nice add.
Aug. 29, 2012, 1:28 p.m. CST
Lovely scene. And I don't agree, this should have stayed in the movie. Mr. Whedom, please next time cut some scenes from Scarlett Johansson and Hawkeye. The movie is fun, yeah. But a little deep scene like this one it will have been nice.
by kim
Aug. 29, 2012, 1:31 p.m. CST
Lovely and amazing scene. And I don't agree at all. The movie was a lot of fun, but a little deep scene as this one it will have been nice. Mr. Whedom, please, next time cut some scenes from Hawkeye and that bad casting choise, Scarlett Johansson.

Should have stayed in the film
by daggor
I cam out feeling Cap didn't have enough weight in the film - this would have helped cement his feeling of isolation and give his becoming team leader more weight. It has a fuckton of product placement. Actually a little surprised they passed on this short bit.
Aug. 29, 2012, 2:05 p.m. CST
did anyone link to the Avengers Gag Reel that is available. i found the link at the end of the Cap'n Cutscene clip it has some laughs in it.
by bongo dummy
Aug. 29, 2012, 2:13 p.m. CST
Um, it's not in question....
by ReelLifeLA
...this scene absolutely should have appeared in the film. It provides (much needed) individual character motivation backstory and development (toward future plot events, such as Cap's need to connect with someone, even his colleagues, in the era in which he lives now). Fully recognize that a feature film has to come in under a certain time, that screen time isn't infinite, but if there's one complaint I continue to hear about Avengers (and it's a small one even at that), it's that the initial character weight and motivation was under-developed early in the film (what drives these people, individually?) This absolutely should have remained in the final cut. As for the alternate opening released earlier, definitely best not to have included that....just does not align. - ReelGuy
Aug. 29, 2012, 2:14 p.m. CST
its a really nice scene
by Johnboy40
I understand why they cut it, but I wish they hadn't. It was noticeable that Dum Dum Duggan's File wasn't there, along with Bucky's. I guess they will leave a meeting with Peggy for the winter soldier, cos his return will be out in the public domain now. maybe thats why they are looking at people other than Hayley Attwell for Sharon Carter..might make the old people make up a little too obvious? and the phone number is rubbish. dont try it, it has one digit too many

Cap's POV was lost in the theatrical version -- scenes like this should've been included
by Dursman2000
Wasn't Whedon saying for months the film was going to be told through Cap's pov for the most part? That was lost in the final cut. I think a longer cut needs to include stuff like this.
Aug. 29, 2012, 2:51 p.m. CST
Didn't the waitress also show up in the movie in another scene late in the movie? That scene SHOULD'VE been in there for that reason too

by Stalkeye
How could you have those scenes end up as some wasted effort ? I'm all for canon but some things you gotta let slide. Have sharon as an ally instead of a Love interest. The Waitress arc was something needed during Steve's soul search. Make Mine Marvel by Making it so.

A shame they cut it.....
by john
As much as I loved The Avengers, it needed more emotional weight to the characters than just Coulson's death. Granted, the solo movies provided plenty of development, the film still needed moments like this to really make us appreciate the rest of the film.
Aug. 29, 2012, 4:57 p.m. CST
yeah it's on the blu ray. Released in Australia already. Apart from the deleted scenes, bloopers and 10 minute 'Art of the film' doc. Blu is a bit Extra's light.

Waitress first encounter
by NativeGaijin
The scene at the outdoor cafe also explains the look on the waitress' face as she's being evacuated from the bank after Cap rescued the hostages. I always thought there was something a little "off" about it, but after seeing this intro it now makes perfect sense. With his mask removed, she recognized him as the quiet customer from the restaurant where she works. Rogers may even be a regular there. If the events in the Captain America sequel take place after The Avengers, it would be cool show him at the cafe again, sharing a special connection with the waitress because of what happened. It would work even as a platonic friendship.
Aug. 29, 2012, 5:40 p.m. CST
Agreed, Re-insert this stuff in an EXTENDED VERSION.
by Negator76
The clip with Harry Dean Stanton, and this clip both provide nice character moments that actually ADD to the impact of the final showdown, rather than detract from it. I felt Hulk in particular really needed that little character beat (even a longer scene) to sell his arc of becoming a hero at the end of the movie. Put this stuff back in. I actually think the scenes would work BETTER in the flow of the story than seen as isolated clips. P.S., somebody wake me when they've finally fired 'The Kidd'. I won't click on half the articles on this site anymore because they're written by that boring dipshit.

Captain America and the old guys...
by nonsensical
You know that group of guys with Stan should have recognized Captain America. Especially if he was as important the the WW2 effort as he's supposed to be. Anyone who was a little kid and pretended to be Cap fighting the Nazis would remember him. Stan was born in 1922, that means he would have been 19 in 1941 and would have clearly remembered the War, and Captain America. Would have mourned the loss of a great American hero and would have spent the entire lunch looking at him. Eventually one of them would have turned to him and suggested that he was a dead ringer for Steve Rogers a.k.a. Captain America maybe even asked if Steve was his kid or a relative his grandkid, even. Steve's identity as Captain America would have been public knowledge by then as well given that it was WW2 and it's been nearly seventy years since it was over. Of course since Steve is honest he would have told them his story and they would have been all over him like Coulson asking for an autograph and offering to buy him a drink or lunch. He would have been mobbed.
Aug. 29, 2012, 7:41 p.m. CST
I agree, overall...
by nonsensical
The pacing is better with the cut, and all that product placement. I mean I know NYC has it bad, but really? Not that bad. In a Directors/Extended Cut I would also love to see this added back in. Just a little more time to really live with the characters more. Especially Cap who we really didn't see deal with his new circumstances in this film. I'm sure more of that will be in the second film, but even a little more character dev would have been amazing!!!
Aug. 29, 2012, 7:42 p.m. CST

Another example of the grasp that Whedon had on each character in the film without over-exposing one wheel in the epic machine that became Avengers. Deleting this helped that, as excellent as it was, to make it a real ansemble picture. Oh, and "as for her number, you moron." Icing on an already delicious cake.

That was pretty damn good, they should have left it in....
by leroyspoboys
Cap is the leader, and got far less screen time than Iron Man. This would have helped balance it out. It would have also helped explain why he has his grumpy pants on for the first half of the film, and eliminated the need for that incredibly lame 'flying monkeys' 'I got that reference' exchange on the Hellicarrier.

Probably part of the reason they cut it
by Hipshot
Is that it rather absurdly shows Steve Rogers' face. The point of his secret identity was to give the sense that "Captain America" could be any American soldier, not a single special guy the Nazis could poison or stab in his sleep. And to give Cap some down-time when he didn't have to be on guard. What the hell would be the point of putting his face out there like that? Geeze.

Coulson's death scene has been changed
by ron2112
I submitted this to Harry over a week ago, but you heard it here first. The Coulson death scene on the DVD/Blu has been altered to remove any sign of Loki's sceptre coming through Coulson's chest. Makes it pretty difficult to tell what the hell's going on. Bad choice.

by Blanket-Man
ron2112, I'm pretty sure you're watching a deleted scene from the gag reel, where Coulson dies several times, and Loki's scepter point hasn't been added in post-production yet. leroyspoboys, Cap actually got the most screen-time of any of the Avengers. He got 31 seconds more than Iron Man, according to this article (deleted spaces as usual on this arcane board): http://www.vulture.com/2012/05/how-much-screen-time-does-each-avenger-get.html

Matthew Wade is confident he can do the No.6 position justice in the Sydney Test after the captain Michael Clarke declared Wade would likely move up in the absence of Shane Watson. Usman Khawaja is on standby for Clarke, who is still carrying a hamstring niggle, but is not expected to replace the injured Watson, with the allrounder Glenn Maxwell more likely to take Watson's place.
Clarke said after the Melbourne Test that if Maxwell played he would most probably bat at No.7, with Wade to shift up to six and Clarke and the retiring Michael Hussey also moving up the list to Nos.4 and 5 respectively. That means extra responsibility for Wade, who has scored a hundred and two half-centuries during his eight-Test career, but he said his experience in the top six for Victoria would hold him in good stead.Read more

The struggling mobile company announces the departure of 3 top execs.
BlackBerry's new interim CEO, John Chen, is credited with the management shakeup. Both the CMO and COO had been at the company for just a short while, brought aboard by Chen's predecessor, Thorsten Heins. According to The New York Times, "the company [will] no longer have chief operating and chief marketing executives."
Motley Fool analyst Jason Moser thinks shake-ups can be an encouraging sign for investors, but in this case, the odds are against BlackBerry. As he says, "The turnarounds very rarely actually do turnaround."
Ultimately, Jason doesn't see enough reward to take on the risks of investing in BlackBerry today.

First Aid Kit Checklist
|Your family's physician may recommend storing personal medications such as insulin or asthma inhalers in your kit. Be sure to check these items periodically for expiration dates. Additionally, you may want to stock non-prescription drugs such as pain and fever reducers, antihistamines for allergic reactions, and anti-inch medications such as hydrocortisone cream.
|Emergency Contact
|Keep a list of emergency phone numbers with your kit, including names and numbers for the doctor, dentist, pharmacist, and poison control center. The universal poison control telephone number in the United States is (800) 222-1222, and calls are routed to the local poison control center.
|First Aid Manual
|Sometimes it's hard to remember what to do in an emergency. A pocket-sized manual comes in handy, taking you step-by-step through first aid care.
|Activated Charcoal
|This substance is widely used to treat acute poisoning (overdose) by reducing absorption of certain substances into the gastrointestinal tract. Activated charcoal should only be used under instruction from the poison control center.
|Gauze Pads and Adhesive Tape
|Non-stick gauze squares are soft and will absorb fluids from a wound or infection.
|Antiseptic Wipes/Ointment
|These handy items can disinfect a wound and help prevent infection.
|Adhesive Bandages
|Keep assorted sizes of these with your kit; you never know how big or small a scrape may be.
|Ice Pack
|You can buy inexpensive, ready-to-use ice packs that get cold quickly when you need them. The packs are useful for treating pain and swelling from bumps, bruises, sprains, stings, and a variety of other health problems that call for cold therapy.
|Disposable Gloves
|It's best to carry non-latex if you can, since some people are allergic to latex gloves.
|Scissors and Tweezers
|You may need scissors to cut gauze, adhesive tape, or cloth. A good pair of tweezers has easy-to-grip handles and can be used for splinter removal and other first aid procedures.
|Triangular Bandage
|This large, triangular fabric can serve many purposes, such as use as a roller bandage, compression bandage, tourniquet, or sling.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt
My name is Wyatt!
Facts about Wyatt
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Black (All)
- Age: Young
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Wyatt's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Wyatt, born in spring 2012, fully vetted, right eye was removed due to a corneal ulcer.
Other Pets at Kitten Division
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Wyatt, a Dixon Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Dixon, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Dixon.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Dixon already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Dixon breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Dixon paves the way for another one to be saved.

Movie News
Quint thinks Shark Night 3D is cheesy, stupid and incredibly entertaining.
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Like a great many of you when I found out Shark Night 3D was in fact a PG-13 movie my interest in what should have been a fun, over-the-top gorefest went from high to low in the blink of an eye.
In fact, I almost decided against seeing the movie despite my seemingly built-in curiosity about any and all Jaws rip-off movies, but I was convinced by a group of friends to go catch the movie at its midnight showing.
Twenty minutes in and I was regretting this decision. Immensely. Flat dialogue spewed out by models instead of actors, cookie-cutter characters (you could tell that the one hot dude was a book nerd because he wore glasses) and a slight undercurrent of racism (the one black dude is friends with the nerdy white guy because he needs to keep his GPA up in order not to lose his sports scholarship) met my ears and a half-assed attempt at recreating the opening to Jaws met my eyes.
The guy below is the nerd, by the way. You can tell he's now the hero because he's not wearing glasses and took his shirt off.
Honestly, I kind of wanted out, but I also wanted to stick around and see if the fun would start kicking in with all the shark stuff. The fun started, alright, but it wasn't the sharks that brought it… it was the crazy character work on top of the out-of-their-minds over the top ridiculousness of the later two thirds of the movie that made the rest of the movie worth it.
I could go into these moments in detail, but I won't. It's not that I'm overly concerned about spoiling these beats, really… it's that I'm fairly confident you wouldn't believe me if I accurately described some of the shit I saw. Especially the post credits sequence, which there really are no words for. But yes, you will kick yourself if you miss it, so stick around. You won't regret it.
A part of me wants to give full credit to the high entertainment factor to the creative team behind Shark Night 3D… it's clear they all had a lot of fun making this movie… but the truth is this is kind of a shitty movie. If director David R. Ellis and writers Will Hayes and Jesse Studenberg can be given any credit it's that they knew they had a stupid movie on their hands and they decided to embrace it instead of fight against it.
Even my uber-critical self will admit that they do some smart things with audience anticipation of certain genre tropes (especially when it comes to the dog in the flick), however on the whole even those doesn't feel like their original intention to me, but something they rolled with as they realized they couldn't show T&A or heavy gore.
Listen, the movie is heavily miscast with the exception of Sara Paxton as the adorable being of innocence in a tight bikini and Joshua Leonard as Red, the hillbilly with crazy cannibals teeth, filed to points. Everybody else in the movie is a stereotype of a stereotype of typical Hollywood horror casting.
I guess there wouldn't be very much of a movie without a human threat since they didn't go so far as to make these sharks able to walk on land (maybe they're saving that for the sequel Shark Night 2: Rise of the Landsharks!), but they scary rednecks aren't all that scary when they're lead by one of the main characters from The O.C. Leonard, on the other hand, looks like a real person and gives his character so much flair that you're onboard for the really stupid, stupid shit they do (and have to explain).
The premise is ridiculous, of course... sharks in a Louisiana lake as a good-looking college girl brings her good-looking friends out for a weekend of partying... but even more ridiculous is how they got there and even doubly more ridiculous is why they were brought there. It's a hat-trick of ridiculousness!
Sara Paxton has the right look… hot, but in a girl-next-door kind of way. Her performance here isn't very strong, but that's not her fault. As written, her character makes about as much sense as a dragon singing Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah to Betty White in a greasy diner (now where the hell's THAT movie?!?) with an incredibly elaborate and exaggerated backstory exposition she has to spit out and little else for her to do except scream for her friends to get out of the water as they're systematically eaten by various species of sharks.
I heavily urge you all to check out Ti West's The Innkeepers, which also stars Paxton, to see just how wasted she is in this movie. Her character in The Innkeepers is nuanced, grounded, sweet and feisty all within a spooky little haunted hotel flick.
No such luck here, but on the creepy old man side of things she does spend half the movie wearing almost nothing. In fact, all the girls do. There's even a scene of high drama as two girls get into a bit of a fight (again, a stupidly written awkward moment of drama) which would be unbearable if it wasn't so funny that they were being all tough and serious while wearing the skimpiest bikinis you could imagine.
My buddy JC De Leon made a very accurate comment that I can not top, so I will quote him directly. "Shark Night 3D is both as good as I hoped it would be and as bad as I feared it would be." That about sums up the movie for me, too.
However it's hard to deny that the movie gets incredibly fun in much the same way that Alexandre Aja's Piranha did. This one isn't as consistent as Piranha was, at times coming off like one of those post-Scream pieces of pretty-people-getting-killed PG-13 shit, but when they decide to turn the Weirdness up to 11 the movie gets really, really entertaining. There's a particular moment of a character taking a stand that makes fuck all sense, but I'll be damned if I didn't feel like standing up an applauding at the sheer lunacy of it.
The movie's stupid. You already know that. Look at the poster! But the success of the film is that it maintains a high entertainment value with a sub-par script, underwear models instead of actors and sharks that look like a step above the Jaws hologram from Back to the Future II. Sometimes these movies just get drab and dull in their horribleness, but this one embraces the cheesiness and milks it for all it is worth.

Yeah, I knew going in that it might not read well. I just can't in good conscience go into detail in just how batty this movie gets because the joy of discovery is the only thing that keeps this movie intriguing. Without knowing just how weird it gets moment to moment it's just a shitty exploitation movie.

looks REALLY awful to me but
by kanye west
I do love bikinis so I'll go. I'll make sure I smoke a fat blunt first though. Wouldn't dare seeing this sober. It's really a shame that wasn't rated R. The studio really dropped the ball on this. Its kinda like hoping to see a Brianna Banks porn and finding out it's a softcore titty movie. Still alright but not the same.

Just what I wanted to hear...
by Andrew Coleman
With a movie premise this well dumb it's good to see they had fun with it. I like when people take chances and have fun with things instead doing it by the numbers. Good stuff. I know a lot of people will hate on this movie but I might actually check it out for how crazy it is.

by Jaster Mareel
Sounds like it kind of gets there at the end, but not with over the top gore and nudity, but with quirky characters and bizarre plot twists. SO NOT what i was looking for. Hmmmm.... I don't know if I can resist a 3D shark movie, even if it is PG-13. Let's keep in mind that Jaws was PG, though I think that was only possible by arm-twisting and ridiculous logic (nobody can recreate the events of Jaws in real-life, therefore toddlers can see it). My goal post for shark movies is automatically lower than it is for most films. For example, I really like Shark Attack 2 (all the others in that series are total garbage) and a STV one called "Red Water".

Sharktopus was one of those films that you know you should stop watching, but can't drag your eyes away from. I mean, my knowldege of octopi species is limited, but exactly which type was it that when spliced with a shark, allowed it to roar and walk on land?

Fatal FLAW of all shark movies...
by impossibledreamers
If you don't go in, you won't get eaten. I couldn't stand Deep Blue Sea, simply because the premise was incredibly concocted and again - stay out of the damn water. But, of course they beat that issue but stranding the victims where they had no choice, but really - if anyone was smart (truly smart) don't isolate yourself in a smarter shark's backyard.

I could tell from the trailer that it was gonna be really bad but I thought the deal was some sort of space infection. Nope it's even DUMBER! They are attacked by creatures, but the nature of those creatures is so fucking flat-out stupid I have a hard time believing it was actually greenlit.

Still waiting for a decent shark flick
by Brody77
I though Meg was the contender, but then they churned out all those blatant rip-off movies (including shark Attack 3: Megaladon starring BARROWMAN!!) so Steve Alten is sadly kidding himself if he thinks it'll get made by anyone decent, for a decent budget. (I'd give anything to be wrong on this) Is this flick gonna be released as an "unrated edition" later then? Cos if there's no tits & no bloodthirsty shark attacks, it's a waste of time.

Someone kick the webmaster awake. Anyway... I was saying. When I lived in Oregon, some time after Jaws was released, someone brought a dead shark from the coast and placed it on the shore of a popular lake where people loved to swim. Ended the swimming there for a while. AND I'd like the second the idea of Chevy doing the voice of a land shark for the sequel... ...candygram... Or the guy from Family Guy doing the effete shark voice. Ooh... i'm gonna eat you all up... I'm gonna eat them little legs.

Jaws ruined shark movies for me
by IWasInJuniorHighDickhead
by virtue of being awesome and by enhancing the shark's size. Where I swim, we have basking sharks. Completely harmless to humans but they have a bit of that 'dead eyed' look, and they can grow to forty feet plus. Underwater in the Welsh murk you will shit yourself if you see one of these glide by. Yet whenever i'm in waters that actually have maneaters, i'm always warned that i'm not taking the dangers seriously enough, cause they all look (relatively) small. <P> And now, when they try to portray sharks realistically, it isn't really scary. The Reef, the shark in that was nine or so feet? Not good if you're actually there and in the water with it, but on screen the tension isn't really there. The only way to get me is to go bigger, and that's always stupid (Megashark, Jaws 3 and 4, etc) cause it isn't vaguely realistic. Neither was Jaws, of course (25ft is basically unheard of, people have claimed that size and bigger but they're never independently verified), but it erred just on the side of realism. <P> Hmm, i'm wandering all over the place here.

I'm not inherently against all PG-13 Horror
by Kammich
Because a lot of horror can still be well-made in the PG-13 format via things like suspense, performance, and ambience... ...however, this is a fucking shark movie. Its kind of insulting to genre fans to make an exploitation movie about shark attacks and make it PG-13. I'll be interested to see how much the box office differs between this and the R-rated "Piranha 3D," which I believe was fairly successful? I'd be willing to bet they don't differ a whole lot, or at least I hope they don't. Stupid studio heads depriving us of our titties and gory fleshy wounds.

Jaws was rated PG. Guess it sucked.
by OutsideChance
I really don't understand the insistence of some people here that any movie not rated R is a failure.
Sept. 2, 2011, 11:11 p.m. CST
Kind of missed the point there, outsidechance
by Mugato5150
It's a foregone conclusion that "Shark Night 3D" isn't going to have the same caliber of writing, acting and direction that Jaws has. All it seems to have going for it is blood and tits. Having it not be an R is undercutting its only selling point. Strange thing to have to explain.

So being PG13,does this mean that sweet wont be seen naked in the movie?

Yeah, I'd probably watch it if it was R / Hard-R
by NeonFrisbee
I love dumb, exploitative shit, but pg-13? What's the point?

outsidechance: JAWS wasn't trying to be campy exploitation like this is.
by THE_CHOPPAH
Movies like this need tits and gore, otherwise they're just watered-down, laboriously tongue-in-cheek pap.

PIRHANA 3D got it right.
by THE_CHOPPAH
It was by no means a very good movie, but it delivered on the exploitive stuff.
Sept. 3, 2011, 9:37 a.m. CST
R or nothing
by rollermonkey
A movie like this must deliver full on nudity and gore or it is utterly pointless.

Wholeheartedly agree - you can't make an exploitation flick then rate it PG13 (or 12 for the UK)

by ranma627
No gore and no nudity. This is a Piranha wanna-be and it couldn't even deliver on what it clearly appears to be promising. What a waste of fucking time. I had to go see sneak into Final Destination 5 just to try and get my money's worth after wasting money on another shitty 3-D movie. Thankfully, FD5 delivered the goods. And the 3-D, which I normally despise, was pretty sweet.

Bad news for horror movies...
by Arthur Jefferson
Every genre-related film released during the past few weeks (SHARK NIGHT 3D, APOLLO 18, DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK, FINAL DESTINATION 5) has been a commercial flop. The only distributor likely to debut horror flicks will be Lionsgate, i.e. the inexpensive, direct-to-video pick-ups (by the way, the filmmakers NEVER profit from the "sale" of these movies. Creative bookkeeping. The After Dark Horrorfests are equally notorious; one producer's maiden film minted $6 million but the company insisted "We didn't even break even!" And Troma (nobody cares), they've always been thieves).

so it has Sharks in it?
by abe
Couldn't really tell if it actually has sharks in it from your sorry excuse for a movie review.

Jaws was PG bitches
by MrD
Yeah, I know, PG-13 didn't exist back then, but the point is the mother of all shark movies didn't need an R rating. Having just got back from SN3D, I can't say that it suffered for the rating - not like sharks are going to be tying people up and torturing them. Sure, there are a few obvious scenes that cry out for boob shots, but if your really that hard up for tits you might want to get a girlfriend (or Google). What hurts the movie is not the cheezy plot, acting or effects (and in my theater the 3D was very strong), because let's be real, we'd be disappointed if they were anything but. The problem is that there are too few characters, which means the kills are too few and far between. I have a particular weakness for shark horror, so I had a blast anyway, but unless you're willing to take 6 deaths over the final hour (one of which is almost off screen), you won't be missing much.

As mentioned above . . .
by DrMorbius
Yes, there are 'salt water lakes', we have one 2 hours east of San Diego . . .The Salton Sea. And the guy who said Final Destination 5 delivered the 'goods', was only half right. Nary a boob in sight. To be sure, there is blood and gore in SN3D, and for the Peter Griffin crowd . . . . . . some back/side boob, when 2 girls are putting their bikini tops on.Katherine McPhee from American Idol is one . . Also a scene for BSB, a nude male models rear in an art class.

Make UP YOUR MIND! Is he gonna shit? Or is he gonna kill us?
by Cinemajerk
First hes gonna shit....THEN hes gonna kill us. Ok. Kidding aside. WTF kind of review is this? You wont tell people what happens....NOT because you dont want to spoil anything...but because what happens is so bizzare you hardly believe it yourself? WTF??? Then why not TELL US? You pepper this review with how bad it is. How awful the acting. How it doesnt even have boobs and gore going for it. How cheesy the CG sharks were(no better than the hologram shark from BTF2). How horrible the acting is. But then say how fun it was???? I am sorry...this review blew. Were you trying to warn us NOT to waste our money and then at the same time telling people to waste their money because they had to see how weird it was....because you wont just tell them? What the hell kind of review is that? Did the studio pay you to endorse it, and the better part of you was trying to fight how you whored yourself out? This crapfest actually sounds worse than a made for the syfi channel monster movie. Please. Spare us the secrets and spill the beans on why this horrible movie was so entertainingly bad and mind fuckingly wierd. Seriously. If it's not about spoilers...just tell your readers and stop wasting peoples time with such lame vaugeness.

I saw this last night here is the tedious summary *SPOILERS*
by OBESE_WAN_KENOBI
Dumb college kids go to a lake house. Make sure to bring one stereotype of each. The Nerd, The Slutty chick, The Black athlete, The shy girl with a troubled past etc. Before kids get to lake house they make a pit stop, in which we get some bad foreshadowing as to who the real bad guys are. (Creepy Rednecks, who are about as creepy as your drunk uncle). Kids get to lake house, come across the sheriff who knows our shy girl with a troubled past, he seems nice... but we know what happens. The Black athlete decides to go water surfing or something dumb to get him in the water. Shark knocks him off his board, his friends driving the boat don't seem to concerned, see him swimming back to shore. Except... HE'S ONLY GOT ONE ARM! This is where it gets really dumb. The Nerdy Med School guy, dives back into the water to go and retrieve his arm. (Who does this guy think he is, Doogie Howser?). They then try and bring him back to a hospital, but a shark attacks the boat and eats the athletes fiancee' Everyone is back at house, and the athlete is losing blood (Which is important in the stupidity factor of the movie later on). The Creepy Rednecks show up and offer to bring a couple kids to land and call for a medi vac. Well the rednecks end up feeding the kids to the sharks while they film it. Back at the house, the black athlete regains consciousness, in what becomes the best part of the movie. He finds out his fiancee has been killed, and decides (with one arm) he is gonna get revenge by killing the shark. At this point he has probably lost 3 to 4 pints of blood, yet he still looks healthy and vibrant as ever. He makes a dumb speech in which he says "His fiancee was the only part of his life ho couldn't lose", in which I burst out laughing... Since he didn't have an arm at the time. He kills the shark with a spear, but it's a Hammerhead, not the same shark. Dun Dun Dunn! Sheriff Bad guy pays a visit and reveals he's in cahoots with the rednecks and the kidnap the Nerd and the Shy Girl. The Nerd is being held captive with Evil Sheriff, in which he reveals why he's killing dumb teenagers. They put the sharks in the lake. You see "20 million people watch shark week, and you can bet some of them would pay big money to watch the real stuff". Yes, it's that dumb. They are making their own faces of death videos with sharks and teens, and filming all of their homicidal evidence... which I thought might hurt them in court later on, but they didn't seem to concerned. Needless to say, they don't succeed, and Nerd guy and Shy girl prevail. There was also a plot point where Shy girl and the leader of the rednecks, who looked more like a A&F model than a redneck used to date, until she ran over his face with a boat motor. Yet, his scar is barely noticeable. Overall it wasn't the worst movie I've seen. But I've sat through most SyFy originals, so I knew I could handle this. I didn't have the fortitude to sit through the entire end credits sequence though. It's just bad... really bad.

Andrew Haldane presents evidence from a range of real-world settings to demonstrate that decision-making in a complex environment can benefit from the use of simple decision rules of thumb. He argues that complex rules often: have punitively high costs of information collection and processing; rely on "over-fitted" models that yield unreliable predictions; and can induce defensive behaviour by causing people to manage to the rules.

Marvel Shocker: Charles Soule Replaces Matt Fraction on Inhuman
- Written by Jude Terror on Monday, December 16 2013 and posted in News with Benefits
Source: Press Release
Breaking news!
Marvel just sent out a press release announcing Charles Soule as the new writer of Inhuman. You may remember that The Outhouse reported that the book was delayed three weeks ago, attributing the problems to the recent discovery that popular artist Joe Madureira is actually an Ent, one of the tree people from Lord of the Rings. As it turns out, this is not the case, or, perhaps it is the case, but it is unrelated. It seems that it was editorial differences between Matt Fraction and Marvel that caused the delay and Fraction's eventual replacement, at least according to Bleeding Cool.
Charles Soule is an Outhouse favorite, so we're cool with the result, but if Marvel is pissing off Matt Fraction, that can't be a good thing. Of course, Fraction is still writing Hawkeye for Marvel, but he also has a lot of successful new creator owned comics at Image, like Satellite Sam and Sex Criminals, plus he's the husband of Kelly Sue Deconnick, so he could probably get work anywhere. Fraction gave up his spot on Fantastic Four and FF to concentrate on Inhuman earlier this year. Rich Johnston claims Fraction has other projects in the works at Marvel, but that's not going to stop speculation from running rampant.
Inhuman will hit stores in April. Here's the press release:
New York, NY (December 16th, 2013) - Marvel Entertainment is excited to announce the addition of Charles Soule as series writer for INHUMAN beginning with an All-New Marvel NOW! #1.
Beginning this April, Charles will join superstar Joe Madureira (Avenging Spider-Man, Uncanny X-Men) to introduce the world to Marvel's newest super hero franchise. Born out of the events of INFINITY and the blockbuster INHUMANITY #1, INHUMAN will change the landscape -- and the fate -- of the entire Marvel Universe.
"Years ago, young(er) Charles made up a list of Marvel characters that would be a blast to someday write - my Marvel Dream Team, basically – and the Inhumans were on that list," says Soule, "So getting an opportunity to work with those awesome, strange, classic characters, as well as to expand the existing mythology into cool new places is pretty extraordinary. INFINITY and INHUMANITY work as amazing springboards to new stories and new characters, and I cannot wait to create them!"
"As soon as I read Charles' first Thunderbolts script, I knew he was going to be a star," says Marvel Editor in Chief, Axel Alonso. "His pitch for She-Hulk proved that he thought big and would bring a lot to the world-building of INHUMAN."
Don't miss the incredible first issue of INHUMAN this April!
Every FIRST ISSUE bearing the All-New Marvel NOW! branding includes a code for a free digital copy of that same comic on the Marvel Comics app for iOS and Android devices.
Once again, the biggest creators bring you the biggest characters in the biggest stories…and it's happening NOW!
