Improv Comedy at The Revival
About The Revival
Improvisational comedy was invented in Hyde Park. In 1955, the Compass Players opened a makeshift theater at the northeast corner of 55th Street and University Avenue. One night, the theater was performing for a capacity crowd. The bartender, Fred Wranovics, pulled director Paul Sills aside and asked him to extend the show so he could sell another round of drinks. Without any additional scripted material prepared, Sills decided to present a third act comprised entirely of improvisational games based on audience suggestions. Needless to say, it was a huge success. Soon, the Compass Players ditched scripted material altogether in favor of improvised performances that became known for pointed social satire and political commentary.
By 1958, the group splintered. Company members Mike Nichols, Elaine May and Shelly Berman went to New York where they quickly gained national acclaim. Director Paul Sills moved north and co-founded The Second City. In the subsequent 57 years, improvisational comedy has become a cornerstone of the global entertainment industry directly influencing theatre, film and television programming around the world.
The Revival is inspired by the legacy of the Compass Players and returns improvisation to its birthplace on the northeast corner of 55th St. and University Ave. in Hyde Park. The Revival presents live performances to the South Side's diverse population of residents, students, faculty/staff, neighborhood professionals and visitors in a 150-seat cabaret theater.

Editorial Reviews
Gina GalloMaureen Gill swaggers through her debut novel with the impressive power, precision and dead-on aim of the last gun standing after the smoke clears. Her characters are finely drawn coordinates in a lethal landscape, tripping the dark fantastic through a plot with more twists than a dry martini. Literati take note: There's a new gun in town and she's taking no prisoners. With each page of January Moon, Gill secures her rightful position as an ascendant star.

January Moon based on 0 ratings. 20 reviews.
January Moon is an ambitious exploration of the ways in which religious fundamentalism is used as a screen for irrationality of all kinds. Using female mutilation as its underlying theme, it gathers a diverse range of characters into a page-turning thriller; along the way it also deals, among other things, with competition between crime prevention agencies and race relations. No-one is perfect; moral dilemmas abound. The family scenes are particularly well-drawn; an island of normality in a sea of madness (not forgetting the dog). A rollercoaster of a read.
January Moon is an exceptional work of fiction, especially for a new author. I haven't always been impressed with self-published authors but this book doesn't suffer from so many of the problems you see with independently published works. Whatever small errors it may have are easily overlooked because the writing is so extraordinarily beautiful, the story so utterly fascinating and creative, and the characters that grace the pages of the book are convincing and well developed. Gill has as refreshing new voice, a biting wit, and an ability to really spin a good yarn. Nothing in January Moon is formulaic or predictable (in fact, she grandly shatters a lot of the old rules which more or less begs the question about why we have them anyway. They are obviously not needed, at least not for a person with such mastery of the written word as Gill). Are you getting the idea I liked January Moon yet? Frankly, I couldn't put it down and once I was through with it I wanted to go back and read a few parts all over again and then call a friend and discuss it. I enjoyed reading the trailer about the dogs at the end of the book and also appreciated the hyperlinks to helpful websites for further information about various topics in the book. That was a nice touch. Her website is also very interesting. My only small criticism is that the book would have benefited from professional editing in a few sections but the overall strength of the story and the skill in which it was written really dwarfs such criticisms, all the more so because it's her first novel and she appears to have done it all by herself without the traditional perks an author receives when backed by an agent and a publishing house. I'm giving January Moon an unreserved five stars and am predicting this very interesting lady from Chicago is going to take the book world by storm.
Maybe I'm cheating b/c I read this book over at Smashwords and then saw it was here too (can I write 2 reviews? I don;t know why not). My sister told me about this book and said it was a cop story and since I'm a cop (not CPD) I said "well, OK, let's hear about it" but when started to tell me about female genitel mutilation i said "no way" (and you know cops have strong stomachs but there are someplace a man just shouldnt go, you know what I mean?) but then she insisted and since I owe her money (no, not really) I agreed to listen (I listened b/c she always puts me on to good books) and I let her read me some parts outloud and I changed my mind and said, "ok, way..." and now here I am. You follow me? (btw this is a double 1st for me b/c I just got a Kindle from my kids for my birthday (sorry Nook) and this is the 1st book I read on it and also this is the 1st review I ever wrote (my sister made me promise to do this if I liked the book b/c she likes the author but that's her bias not mine & I'm really here b/c I want to be). Anyway, I like the book, I really do. The characters are believable (esp Wiley, he's great). I really liked the cops and feebs and all the quirky people (I worked wiht that guy Eggs, I swear to God) and its a nice twist to have an offender/perp whos a female homicidal maniac (well she's sort of a woman and she's obviously a complete whackjob). There are enough twists and turns in the story to keep you guessing all the time. I never expected the ending and its obvious Gill set the stage for another book and I'll look forward to reading it. I agree with the other reviewers here and at Smashwords (see I did my homework) that Gill can be really funny. Is it a heavy book? Yeah, it has some major substance and I checked out Gill and she has some creds when it comes to history and Chicago and just living a real life (nice website and a brave lady with guts and I take my hat off to her. I like survivors.). But is it also entertaining? Definitely. And is it believable? Well, I had no problem with it. In some ways its a more accurate cop story than the usual stuff. Am I recommionding it? Yes I am. It worked for me. My wife is reding it now and then my girls so it will so it will be interesting to see what they think but my wife is already laughing so I guess she likes it it. At $2.99 I don't know what you got to lose. This is a thumbs up book.
Maureen Gill is a Chicagoan and there's something about her writing that tells you that even if you didn't now it. Maybe it's the Midwestern bluntness with a dash of openess and that strange sincere friendliness all Chicagoan have (so different from other big cities). Maybe it's the in-your-face, "put your cards on the table and spit it out if you got something to say" attitude of the Windy City. I don't really know but it sort of jumped off the page to me. Whatever it is, January Moon and Maureen Gill are as brisk and refreshing and able to blow you over as a gale force wind off Lake Michigan. This book is a sweeping fast paced saga that weaves several amazing tales into one great story. I loved it. It was different (I mean who the heck can write about female genital mutilation and make you want to read it? Some great talent there alright.) Gill is funny too (the Mayor and his Ethiopians!) and so sarcastic (rednecks aren't going to be amused) but her real strength is the power of her dramatic writing which left me limp and emotionally stunned -- over and over again; ie., the doctor telling Joan Oboti the truth about her father was the best writing I've read in years (OMG). And then Gill did it again with Wiley and Eiot and the truth about what happened to Eliot when she was a little girl at the hands of racists, and then yet again when Louise tells Dell about the pain and horror of raising a demonic child. Over and over again Gill demonstrated remarkable talent. And her comedic timing was perfect; without it I don't think I would have enjoyed the book as much, it might have been too heavy but every time Gill brought me to the edge she pulled me back and let me take a badly needed breather. And I don't want to give it away but that battle between that creepy woman and Wolf (the dog on the cover) was my idea of horror (and it was a pretty good literary trick for it to be seen through the scope of an assassin). But of all the stories I think the story about Wiley and Eliot and Kenny was the best. This book is a little different and that's one of the things I like about it. I think with her first book Gill has dared to come out swinging and boy that's just so Chicago! (PS: I'm actually going to read it again. I know I missed stuff on the first read and want to go back and savor some it again. Yep, it's that good.)
This book was a wonderful surprise. Never heard of this author before but a friend told me it was a great book and so I took a gamble for a few bucks - why not? Wow! What an interesting and smartly written story. I loved it because it wasn't formulaic or trite, it made me laugh (some spots were very funny, both LOL and chuckle quietly kind of funny) and there was great drama too, maybe even a few tearjerker parts. But most of all this writer just stunned me with her kick butt style and her willingness to go into some really unbelievably tough areas, like female genital mutilation and culture, religious fanaticism and racism, and she really makes you look at "crazy" a whole new way. I don't know how to describe this book really because it's not your usual suspense or detective or mystery or even love story but it's all of them all rolled into one with humor and gut wrenching moments too. The ending was a surprise (but so was the whole book) and I'm a fan. I checked out the author's webpage (cool lady) and will buy whatever other books she writes. And she has links to each topic she writes about so you can check that out too (like FGM, hate crimes, animal abuse). The cover SOOOOO fits the book too and she provides info abouty the dog and the cover too. I thought this book was refreshing and I bet this writer is going to get well known soon. (And since I'm a Chicagoan and love my city I really appreciated the parts about Chicago too!) I recommend this book totally.
Prologue starts with a kidnapping and then this story only gets better from there. It's been a long time since a book written by a woman has grabbed my attention & held it, like this one. (You don't know how it pains me to have to write that--I am an avowed, old-time, march-in-the-streets, 1960s-era feminist.) This is an action, thriller to rival any!
January Moon is the only book my husband and I both enjoyed. He likes action packed cop stories and dogs and I like books with characters I can really get into and dogs (OK, so we both like dog stories). He liked it for its fast pace and thrilling ending but I liked how it was layered with lots of nuances and packed with drama and he doesn't even understand what "nuances" means (is that like "mauve?" he asks sarcastically).He liked the interesting twists and turns and I loved the family dynamics. He liked Del and Wiley and Tooch and Frank and I loved Jess and her mom and Eliot and the female FBI agents. He got a kick out of the references to Chicago's streets and I enjoyed how the author handled Chicago's people. Mrs. Lupuserythematosis was priceless and so was Agnes Mehlman and Stanley Poiczyvoyczkym, a name that's like "Smith" in Chicago. He likes to get into the heads of hateful crazy people (murderers and creeps) and I like to get into the heads of people who sacrifice and love and I'd invite into my home. I like themes about love and redemption and he prefers plot over theme (he just asked "what's a theme?"). He eats jerky and I eat sushi; he speaks perfect Southside Chicagoese and was raised Irish-Italian Catholic and I was born in West Rogers Park, a nice Jewish girl with a family history probably like Abby Horowitz and we both understand the complexities of marriages like the the Zahidi-Weinstein union. We are true Chicagoans: complicated, simple, tough and soft and all of this comes out in Gill's writing. My husband is a businessman and I teach English (ESL) and he's blown away by how cleverly Gill weaves in history (a subject he loves)and I'm struck by her prose, her character development, how she's stepped out of the box and written something very unique, something that's maybe one of those rare literary hybrids that actually works. To me January Moon was comfort food, like brisket or cheescake for the soul. He thinks of January Moon as a killer blizzard that slammed into Chicago without warning, or maybe a deadly seiche out of Lake Michigan. You know what? This is one of those rare times we're both right. We will both be looking forward to more books from this talented author. And I think this is a very good book for book clubs because there's so much to discuss.
I'm one of those guys who (this makes my feminist wife nuts) doesn't read fiction written by women.I like cop stories and (no offense ladies)think women write cop stories about female cops who secretly want to be Amish housewives and I get all kinds of mixed signals from those books. I like to keep it simple.(You put any mint or cream in my whiskey and I'll kill ya' - men know what I mean). My wife just left the room in a snit; oh well. She can write her own review. Anyway I just finished January Moon by Maureen Gill and I want to say Maureen proves there's an exception to every rule. The only label you can attach to her writing is "damn good." OK, so before I write more here's my disclaimer: I know Maureen Gill personally. But let me add I haven't seen or talked to her in years & I learned she wrote a great book through word of mouth (a loose network of old college friends). "No surprise, there," I thought, because everyone who knows Maureen knows she's a master of the written word. I don't even know how many prestigious awards she won in college. Who could keep track? Knowing Maureen, she probably doesn't even know (or care). I don't think she ever appreciated how damn good she was back then. She blew most of us away. I figured she'd just written some brilliant historical tome (Doris Whats-Your-Name Move Over) kind of book. "Fiction? You're kidding, me." (I didn't expect that.) "So, what's it about?" "It's about female genital mutilation, racism, a dog, a cult, religious fanaticism, cops, some FBI agents, a bunch of crazy people, a huge computer financial scam, a history professor, an interracial love affair, rednecks, and Ethiopians." "Ethiopians?" "Well, that's part of the humor because some parts are pretty funny. And she makes a lot of references to Chicago, Jews, Catholics, even St. Jude, and did I mention the dog?" "Yeah, you did." "OK, good. The dog's really cool. Oh, and the Yoopers." "Yoopers? Sounds like everything's in there but the proverbial kitchen sink. And here I thought she'd write history." "But that's what's so neat. I think she did, Craig. Brilliantly. Check it out." Hey, Moe, I did check it out and our old buddy Steve is right - you did it all brilliantly. Moe, you just knocked the ball out of the park, baby. You really did! Shelley & I are proud of you! Congrats & Go Chicago! (Oh, Shell just reminded me you don't like Moe and you use Mickey. Sorry, I always liked Moe.) To everyine who reads this: I recommend this book because honestly its fast-paced, very interesting, has some laughs, I like the plot, there's a hair raising battle at the end, and I like cop stories and dogs.
I don't write reviews and I don't generally read them either but I'm making an exception because January Moon astonished me. I never read a book like this in my entire life and I haven't stopped talkig about it since I finished it. Every single character no matter how small to the story had depth, not like the usual "post it" people authors stick in that are so blah but it was in the main characters that this author slayed me and before this book was over I felt like we had laughed and cried and hugged together. This book is like potato chips on steroids; you can't get enough of it. Why isn't everyone talking abuot this book? It's so different but so good. This author has a totally different writing style than anyone I ever read and she tackles some heavy stuff but she does it with so much casual grace and even humor the book is not heavy or depressing and it's totally entertaining. It has some of the best dialogue I've ever read (I kept seeing it as a movie). What amazed me is how so many fascintating stories were woven through the story and in the end they all came together perfectly. It was BRILLIANT. This author is a superb, absolutely amazing story teller. I loved this book. I read there is anther by this same author but can't find it (March Storm). I want to read it! How can I find it? This is supposed to be a series but where are the other books? I will read them for sure.
This was a pretty good read. The author has a pretty neat style. It's unusual but entertaining. It grabbed me on the first page. The dialogue sounded real to me. Sometimes I wondered where the story was going. It got a bit convoluted but I stuck with it and I'm glad I did because it had a really good ending that made everything make sense. I ended up really liking the story because it was different and not formulaic like so many cop stories are. The ending sets you up for the next book which if there is one I will read. I thought it was a pretty intelligent book. I'd recommend it.
I highly recommend this first novel by a talented author who really knows her subject matter. Several issues that provide the basis of the plot are unique in both presentation and timeliness, which fascinated me. Gill deftly grabbed my attention from the start and I willingly hung on for the thrilling ride! This is not only a well-plotted police procedural but it is also a great character-driven story. I felt that I really got to know both the primary and secondary characters, and came to care about several. Relationships are very important in this story and I enjoyed seeing how they evolved. There are many layers to this book that make for complex and suspenseful read. I really look foreward to Gill's next book, March Storm, which I understand will be out soon. M.N.
I could not put this book down. I was warned before reading it that it dealt with a sensitive subject matter particularly for a woman. So I started reading this with some trepidation. Maureen handled the subject straight forward, head on and without apology or embarrassment. Without a doubt I will be doing research and helping to raise awareness of this serious and unacceptable practice. The story itself is a bit like Maureen. Straight forward, head on and without embarrassment. It was hard to read in places when dealing with the lowest scum of the earth and I'm sure it had to of been hard to write. I felt pain in some places and tears flowed a few times which is not normal for me. The characters were more than believable and I was right there with them catching their backs as they confronted opposition. I was pushing and encouraging when they needed it. I reached for the phone a few times to give someone a call that I felt might benefit from a cheerful voice just to realize it was just a book. Not that I would describe this as just a book. It is far more than that. The many sides of this book are obvious when you start reading it. Relationships are not one-sided and Maureen certainly doesn't paint a rosy picture of life here. But what she does do is give you champions, heroes and villains and she guides you through the rough times and into the light. I treasured every page and will re-read this book. I'm not sure if she adds the Trooper, Shadow and Wolf piece onto every version but when I read that I cried all over again. What a beautiful memory she has chosen to share with her readers and a great insight into her personal life and this just makes me adore Maureen all the more. This is a must read and one of very few books that I will read again and again. I kept having to check the cover to makes sure I wasn't reading a Dick Frances book. It's a great thriller and perfect study of human-kind at its lowest and best.
Maureen Gill has burst onto the crime fiction scene with her new novel "January Moon." Gill's first novel, and the first in a projected series, features Chicago cop Del Carter, and each book in the series will be named for a different month, with "January Moon" being a great way to kick off the calendar year and a fast-paced, page-turning series. The title of "January Moon" refers to a strange prophecy around which the crime centers. The prophecy states that "The One who will be the Final Seed of Truth will be planted in the True Mother's Womb under the light of the brightest January Moon." Lieutenant Del Carter becomes involved in a crime investigation that largely revolves around this prophecy when his trucker dad picks up a young adolescent girl at a truck stop to protect her from some unsavory characters only to have her end up dying in his truck. The girl, known as Sunny, turns out to be the niece of Del's fiancée Jess. And just as shocking, Sunny has died from female genital mutilation being performed on her innocent young body. In the investigation, Del joins forces with several other cops as well as the FBI. Among Del's compatriots in solving the crime are Fred Wiley, a somewhat ornery homicide investigator with his own secrets about a past relationship, and an officer Wiley nicknames "Eggs" because his last name is Benedict, although "Eggs" isn't smart enough to get the joke. While solving the crime and bringing about justice, these characters discover they have their own personal issues to work out, making the reader as or more interested in the characters and their relationships as in solving the crime. In time, the investigation leads to a cult group on a compound in Illinois that is known as the All Faith Jerusalem Church. Sunny's mother, Evelyn, is not only a member of the cult, but she is the one who created the prophecies. The cult claims to embrace the best of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, while rejecting that Christ is the world's savior; instead, the cult believes a new savior will be born according to the January Moon prophecy. The leader of the cult, Jim Harte, is known as the Prophet. He claims to be a brilliant theologian, but he is also the tool of those who would use him to extort money from his followers and set up means to drain people's bank accounts electronically. Jim is also assisted and used by his sister, my favorite character in the book, Rae Harte-who doesn't love a good villain? Rae has become her brother's protector and comforter, but she also has her own agenda. She is wonderfully described in the book as behaving like "the Terminator playing Blanche Dubois" and as a female Arnold Schwarzenegger. Rae was apparently sexually abused in her past, and she decided to develop the strength of a man to make sure no one can hurt her again; the other characters speculate that she is on steroids, and she nearly brings Wiley to his knees when she shakes his hand. Because of the pacing and character development, I don't think I have been so hooked by a contemporary crime novel since I read Michael Connelly's "The Poet" many years ago. For a first novel, "January Moon" is an astonishing achievement, and I hope eleven more novels will quickly follow. - Tyler R. Tichelaar, Ph.D. and author of the award-winning "Narrow Lives"
Maureen Gill is from Chicago and she writes with the plain-spoken authority of mid-westerners, a style which suits the subject matter of this detective story perfectly. The story starts out with a bang. A truck-driver rescues an obviously ill, very young girl from a truck stop where she is being hit on by a group of young guys. The trucker, a decent, middle-aged guy gets her into his truck but soon realizes she is very, very ill - she dies in his truck and, after a panicked call to his wife, the girl is taken to a medical examiner where it is discovered she was the victim of female genital mutilation (FMG), a horrible practice which excises most of the victims' external genitals. I was familiar with the practice from reading Alice Walker's Possessing The Secret of Joy and the pain and suffering women "cut" in this way live with for the rest of their lives is unimaginable. But this young woman was a white girl living in the American mid-west not Africa. How could such a thing happen to her? From this dramatic and fascinating beginning Gill embarks on a roller coaster ride of bizarre, but believable, personalities from the good guys, including a likeable detective named Del Carter and a hard-boiled but incredibly seductive cop named Fred Wiley, to the bad guys, all of them under the control of the baddest of the bad guys, "guys" being questionable since Rae Harte is a steroid-driven man-woman who is a living, breathing hate machine - but a very, very smart one. Rae, it turns out, is the power behind the throne of a charismatic, lunatic preacher and leader of a cult where the lost, disenfranchised, and deluded live in a barracks-like compound away from the eyes of the world. Strange things are going on in there and, though the FBI has managed to infiltrate the group, things are not going all that well. There are several sub-plots which support the story well. Del is engaged to Jess and their romance, while a little too perfect at times, adds some tender relief from the tension of the story. More tantalizing and ultimately heart-breaking is Wiley's love for Eliot, a woman who loved him but rejected him thirty years earlier for reasons of her own which, when they are revealed, make your skin crawl. But Wiley never stopped loving her and, as the end of the story alludes to, never will. There is also a small group of disorganized, unfocused would-be terrorists and a whole collection of supporting characters ranging from the sublime (a dog named Wolf) to the ridiculous (a cop named Eggs). One of my favorite scenes takes place in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, a fascinating place anyway, and Gill has such an ear for dialect that she writes "Youpper" perfectly. In addition to the excellent characters, tight plot, and beautifully written dialog, Gill has sprinkled in no shortage of homages to Chicago area cuisine. Her descriptions of meals were a little too good at times - I had to put the book down and go to the kitchen. Gill's writing style is quick, spare, and hard-boiled. I personally like stories with a wide variety of characters and a strong sense of plac
January Moon is a really solid book you can sink your teeth into. It examines tough and meaty issues like racism, religious fundamentalism, female cutting, the ongoing tragedy of child abuse and how it warps its victims, family dynamics, and much more. There are rescued people in this book and a rescued dog and lots of drama but moments of great comic relief (Gill is wonderful at writing sardonic humor eg: "Eggs looked like it rang a bell, but not too loudly.") I think she's my new favorite writer. My son is reading it now and he likes it too (he's 29) so I think it's the kind of book that will have very large appeal. I highly recommend January Moon.

Comments about Physicians Formula Palette Multi-Colored Pressed Powder, Natural Glow 2717, .3 oz:
I own a few powders, some are high end like some micro finish powders and I choose Physicians Formula over all of them. This stuff works great for me, my skin tone, and with the other face makeup I use under and over this. This has a very neutral tone that is not too yellow or too pink, it definitely livens up my face adding just a touch of color which I need. In the dead of winter, like feb. and march it is just a tiny bit off color for me but I just sweep it down my neck and collar bone and blend it out and it's perfect. I use this to set my foundation and it has a VERY very very subtle glow to it, it's more matte but if you look so close to a mirror you might see some teeny shimmers, nothing major I swear. I use a bronzer on top of this to do some shading and I'm all set. My face makeup lasts all day for me and doesn't make me break out and since it's powder, seems to control oil. I've tried a good dozen or so powders over the years and I have no reason to buy another. Hope it work for you as well as it does for me! Oh and I use a brush to apply this all over my face, but when I do rare touch ups I use the puff and it's great for on the go.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

May be worn alone or over makeup. Lightly pat on powder over face and neck to add a soft nude glow. For the most even application, be sure to tap excess powder from puff before applying. For best results on dry to very dry skin, apply moisturizer prior to using powder.
Helpful Hint: Use a powder brush for an even lighter application.


text: I spent most of my childhood moving from state to state.We mostly stayed at KOA campgrounds, rest areas, living mainly in the south, moving from east to west working flea markets and carnivals. Mom was a free-spirited gypsy or better yet an elusive butterfly. My older brother and I wanted to go with her to keep watch over her. We never stayed anywhere long but we always had a lot of love for each other even when things weren't so great.In the beginning of my teenage year we moved back to Nashville Tennesse, where we were born. We settled there for three or four years and then moved to Kentucky. My life took a turn for the worst. By that time, I had no roots or direction. By the time I turned 18 I was married with newborn twins and a teenage wife. I had plenty of personal problems; hanging with the wrong crowd, drugs, crime, and then prison... My first real issues with the law got me serving two years in state prison. I came out with an attitude, a big chip on my shoulder, no wife, no twins, and still no direction. I struggled with my demons and drugs. My life was headed straight to hell. Again, I let my addiction lead me straight back to federal prison for a 6 year sentence. This time I discovered "ME". I grew up fast. I figured out who I was/am. I found God and for the first time in my life I had a direction, a purpose, and a peace within me. With Christ, I turned my life around and overcame my addictions. Now I have so many good things in my life. God is 1 .I have a beautiful wife, beautiful children, and a loving family. I have all this music inside me. All my fears, losses, experiences, joy, and happiness is put into words. And with God leading me, opening doors, I will share all these things with you through my music.

Conservation Around the World
Snow Leopard Enterprises Makes Raw Wool Valuable
It was in the thick of winter when Samat and his wife Shirin first started washing the coarse, rather dirty wool of their dozen or so sheep in front of their modest house in Ak-Shiyrak village, a community high up in the Kyrgyz Tian-Shan mountains. In the freezing cold, the pair were outside, elbow-deep in buckets of water, scrubbing and cleaning piles of wool. Until then, most people in Ak-Shiyrak had never bothered to wash and process their wool – there was simply no market for it. "Our neighbor saw us wash the wool, and called us fools", Samat recalls. "He thought there was no point in doing this work, let alone in the cold."

Desbuquois syndrome
- Micromelic dwarfism, narrow chest, vertebral and metaphyseal abnormalities and advanced carpotarsal ossification
- Desbuquois dysplasia
Your QuestionI have a 12-year-old granddaughter who has Desbuquois syndrome. Can you provide some information to help me understand this condition?
Our Answer
We have identified the following information that we hope you find helpful. If you still have questions, please contact us.
Questions on this page
What are the signs and symptoms of Desbuquois syndrome?
The signs and symptoms of Desbuquois syndrome may vary in nature and severity and may include:[1][3][4][2][5]
- Intrauterine growth retardation;
- Short stature with shortened extremities (arms and legs). Adult stature is usually 114 cm or greater.;
- Generalized joint laxity, which can cause joint dislocations;
- Radial deviation of the fingers with thumbs that are often broad and in the "hitchhiker position";
- Narrow chest with pectus carinatum (which can lead to respiratory infections);
- Kyphoscoliosis;
- Distinctive facial characteristics including a round flat face, prominent eyes, micrognathia (small jaw), saddle nose, long upper lip, flat philtrum (area between the upper lip and nose), and short neck;
- Intellectual disability of various degrees;
- Obesity in adults.
Complications may include sleep apnea, frequent respiratory infections, strabismus, club foot, cleft palate, glaucoma, and cryptorchidism (undescended testicle).[1]
There are two forms of Debuquois syndrome that have been distinguished on the basis of the presence (type 1) or the absence (type 2) of characteristic hand anomalies (accessory ossification center situated away (distal) from the second bone of the hand (metacarpal), bifid distal phalanx (the bone of the tip of the finger is divided in two parts), or thumb with delta-shaped phalanx). A variant form of the syndrome, Kim variant, has been described in 7 patients from Korea and Japan, and is characterized by short stature, articular and minor facial anomalies, together with hand anomalies, including short metacarpals (bones of the hand) and fingers with long bones (elongated phalanges) with advanced carpal bone age.[2]

Sorry, I thought you were asking for the code to create a break. Post your code and I'll see if I see any problems.

Ok - so having had to look up what control breaks are I've found this:
So.. without seeing your code, I'm guessing you're looping through a list of results, and you need to do something like display a sub-section header. Most of solving this will be via getting your SQL right: grouping and ordering your results correctly. But without seeing your actual code it's going to be very hard to accurately identify the problem, let alone suggest a solution.Originally Posted by answers.com

PsiOxus Therapeutics has been formed through the merger of Hybrid Biosystems with Imperial Innovations Group portfolio company Myotec Therapeutics. Imperial Innovations is also leading a £3.6 million (about $5.7 million) investment round in the newly merged firm and will hold a 41% stake in PsiOxus.
The new funds will be used to progress a pipeline of products for cancer and wasting diseases, including Phase I and II trials of Myotec's MT-102 and Hybrid's ColoAd1. MT-102 is a dual-action anabolic catabolic transforming agent that is already in Phase II proof-of-concept studies for the treatment of cancer-related cachexia.
ColoAd1 is an oncolytic virus that Hybrid claims has been developed using a directed evolutionary process to generate a product with high selectivity for cancer cells, but little or no effect on normal tissue. Originally developed in collaboration with Bayer Schering, ColoAd1 is a broad-spectrum anticancer candidate currently undergoing late preclinical development and GMP production scaleup. Initial therapeutic indications for the product will include metastatic colorectal cancer and primary hepatic cellular carcinoma.
PsiOxus aims to expand its pipeline by exploiting Hybrid's polymer-coated recombinant viral vector platform PolyStar, and its adjuvant and immunotherapeutic system, PolyMap. The PolyStar vector technology is designed to avoid pre-existing antivector immunity when targeting vaccines to antigen-presenting cells. PsiOxus claims the approach essentially acts as a Trojan horse, making vaccine vectors invisible to the immune system such that viral vaccines can be used repeatedly in the same individuals.
The PolyMap technology generates polymerized synthetic toll-like receptor (TLR) adjuvants, which PsiOxus says can trigger a fivefold greater immune response than traditional TLR adjuvants. While the soluble poly-[N-(2-hydroxypropyl) methacrylamide]-based polymer itself is totally nonimmunogenic, the firm maintains presenting the small synthetic adjuvant molecules in an arrayed pattern significantly enhances the immunogenic effect.
Myotec was established in 2006 to commercialize the work of researchers at Imperial College, London. Additional players in the latest £3.6 million funding boost for the newly formed PsiOxus include Invesco Perpetual, which invested an additional £1.5 million (roughly $2.4 million) in Myotec in March, and Mercia Fund, a founding investor in Hybrid.

we found out about this pregnancy in late august, and recently moved to a new town to be with SO's family, since my family was a little unsupportive at first. SOs sister was happy to let us move in until we found something stable, and we pay some rent and help with groceries, etc. before we moved, his sister was so excited about the baby and wanted us to move in ASAP, but soon she became uninterested, annoyed, and jealous. (let's just call her Sis) yesterday Sis announced that she's all of the sudden pregnant. normally i would be totally excited but it feels like her and her husband are purposely pushing our pregnancy to the side now that they're also expecting, although they already get most of their attention with their 2year old girl (who she usually leaves with me all day to run around town).Sis's husband was talking to me about our next ultrasound and he was hoping we'd have a little girl so they could get rid of the old newborn stuff from their first daughter. i said that if they also had a girl, they don't need to worry about it and they should keep their things. he replied that he wanted his new baby to have NEW things. this made me so mad that it's okay for us to have used clothing, etc but it's not good enough for them (which i am totally appreciative of anything given to us, new or used) am i being selfish? their pregnancy is absolutely annoying to me for some reason! i hate having to hear about it, and feel like such a bad person...
is it wrong to feel jealous? LONG

"Unless you fuck up. Then he offers an eternity of roasty-toasty time." - abbeysdad
I agree that it will probably be easier once you move out. You're allowed to feel however you want to feel but sometimes I don't think you realize how much you do want another baby until someone close to you is pregnant. You are experiencing it with them and then you reminisce and maybe realize that you do want another baby. So maybe being around you and all your happiness made BIL and SIL realize they were ready for another child. But now you fee like they are stealing your thunder...
Just try to focus on the positives - the kids will be close in age and can grow up together!
I am in a similar situation. My SIL is 6 weeks behind me in pregnancy. She has 2 kids from previous relationships (both boys). My hubby and I adopted a little girl 3 years ago. When we adopted her from birth, there was a big thing about the "first grandchild". This was before they were married. So my little girl is the "first grandchild". But then the race was on for us to get pregnant. I actually was told that my little girl wasn't the first cuz she was adopted! It doesn't matter- legally, she is the first grandchild. Anyhow, I have infertility issues and had to do IVF- so my pregnancy was literally planned down to the day! She also has some fertility issues but had a hard time finding a doctor who would prescribe Clomid (my doc actually told her it was unethical given her situation). After several docs saying no- she found one that she lied to and finally got it. Anyhow! She is now pissed that I got pregnant first! Because now, I will have the first grandchild(ren)- I think this was covered 3 years ago! And she is super pissed that I have twins- probably both girls (we find out for sure in 3 days). Some people can be childish- just ignore it!
Alexis Michelle and Allison Mae are arriving April 2013! Our little miracle babies!
I think you aer being unreasonable. If they have the money they should be able to buy new stuff if they want. Just take it and be grateful.

Antonio Jr. ~ 3/31/13 ~ Easter baby!
I have a similiar situation.. and I don't really call it jealousy.. I just get annoyed. I just typed the whole thing out and then deleted it. Just because, I would hate for my niece who is 17 and pregnant, and also due in April to come across it. Every damn bit of it was true, but I'm not mean and don't want to start drama.
The advice I can give you is to just soak in the positive. Ignore the negative. I agree that when you move out things could get better! I just completely block out my in-laws, sounds horrible but it's like no one can see that things are seriously messed up in the situation, and I am not all high and mighty, because I had my first at 18. But I was also not sleeping with every guy I met and falling in love every other month. BLAH, got side-tracked again. Sorry! :p Hang in there lady, just enjoy your little family!!
And on the whole buying new things.. here's my take.. With my first pregnancy I was 18 and my aunt had just had their last baby 1.5 years before that, so she gave me EVERYTHING. I literally bought like very very little. With my second, we got alot of stuff given to us, got help because we were not in the best financial situation... With this third one, my husband and I have pretty decent jobs, even though I'm having another boy, and my youngest is only 2, I am so buying new stuff. Not everything, because I am practical, but I'm looking forward to it! :p I can actually afford a $150 swing if I want it! I've never been able to do it! So I can see your IL's wanting to buy new stuff. Now what they do with the old stuff, it's whatev to me. I tried to give mine to my 17yo niece who doesn't have a pot to piss in and she told me no, she wanted gender specific items. In my opinion, if I was given by my aunt who could afford new stuff, I would take it! (Um, I did! :p lol) I can't afford anything so I should get her stuff! It's all in great condition! But to each their own.. whatever I replace I will donate to a pregnancy center in my town that I got help from after my son was born (alot of our clothes from the 6-12m stage came from them and diapers, I donated alot of the clothes back, but since I never got big things, I kept all my stuff. If I'm not going to use it, there is someone there that can!)
thanks ladies! it's not that i'm ungrateful, and i'm completely okay with used items. we don't have the money as is and are trying to save whatever we can. the only problem i have is the way they act like their babies deserve the best (which they do!) but that mine can just be swept aside because i'm young and don't make big bucks. sorry to rant but thanks for the listening ears:)
Good luck!

Skip to comments.Union Square beating victim dies at Bellevue Hospital
Posted on 09/09/2013 3:02:38 PM PDT by Perdogg
A 62-year old man who was brutally attacked in Union Square last week has died.
On Wednesday, a man shouting that he hated white people punched victim Jeffrey Babbit in the face, witnesses said, causing him to fall and strike his head on the ground so hard he ended up in a coma at Bellevue Hospital.
(Excerpt) Read more at pix11.com ...
Where's Al & Jesse?
Thank you, Obama. Thank you, MSM. Thank you, Eric Holder. Your plan is working.
Gee, ya think so? Oh wait, it's New York. The murderer, if even convicted, will get 20 years and be out in 5 or less. Overcrowding, ya know.
Dear God. I've spent hours (years, actually) at Union Square market buying wonderful produce. My heart breaks - yet again. Go in peace, sir.
My husband is 62 - not a very old age today. He is in that neighborhood every other day. My heart is aching for this man. It could very well have been my husband.
A black guy in his thirties screamed some anti-white nonsense and clobbered a young white guy who was simply sitting harmlessly on the M60 yesterday. That's the bus that goes from LaGuardia, unfortunately, so I hope the cops are out there and get this guy and that somebody in the city will make it clear that this is not ok. Tourists take that bus into the city from the airport.
The man who was clobbered, btw, has several broken bones in his face around his eyes, but he won't lose his vision.
He's living? Thank God.
The man who was murdered in NYC was the caretaker for his mother who has dementia. Who takes care of her now? Obama?
Bernie Goetz knows how to fix this problem.
No Press Conference from the President about whether, if he had a son, he would look like the perpetrator.
More like he'll cut a deal with the D.A. and plead guilty for a few years behind bars. Criminals rarely do the time for the actual crimes they commit. I know of what I speak. Worked in uniform for 25 years in NY State's prison system.
Do you for one minute think that race won't be a major factor in treatment.
It's lights out, Cracka's.
THIS is a DIRECT result of Obama, Holder, Jackson and Sharpton's actions during the Zimmerman trial!! I wish his family would SUE someone. This is despicable. NOTHING will happen to the killer...NOTHING cause he's one of Obama's sons!
New York has the death penalty. Let's see if this animal gets it.
The situation is clear: blacks murdering whites.
I understand what you are saying. Manhattan had/has the greatest teaching hospitals in NYC or the United States. I can still remember during the height of the crime spree of the 1980s, how Bellevue was considered the best hospital for trauma. Americans have no idea how this has impacted on healthcare in general - and how it has helped them individually.
It's now all over.
Where's the CIVIL RIGHTS DIVISION of the DOJ Social Justice Unit. Oh, there still working to provide prosecution with information about Zimmerman for the civil trial.
This man was the ONLY caregiver for his 90+ year old mother.
The Black has now effectively signed her death warrant, too.
Hatred should be 0bama and Holder's surnames.
Well, of course, our "Little Father," Obama, who will send her right away to a death panel.
"Just another white bump in the road. Who cares about it now?
(collected quotes from Obama, Holder and Hillary).
Yes, but it's virtually impossible for a law-abiding person to legally have a gun in NYC now. Criminals, on the other hand, with the death of stop and frisk, can have as many as they want.
Sadly, this is the result of societal "enabling" of an entire class of "preferred" individuals that the great Thomas Sowell refers to as "mascots" in his brilliant work "Vison of the Anointed." When rights accrue, not to individuals, but to groups, we witness the corrosive damage of Rousseauan theory; the legacy of the Jacobins. The subsequent carnage is predictable.
This horrible story is but one of hundreds that are never mentioned in a great sin of omission by our "Ministry of Tuth", the MSM. The litany of Black-on-White murder is epic:

These are only a few. Spread the truth. Silent no more.
What was it Obama said today about it being your duty to ignore laws you know are wrong???????????????????????????????????
Those who cling to normalcy bias will deny it, but the race war has already begun.
It did not start with riots in the streets and ash in the skies, as we thought it would.
It started with the word being quietly put out by the Left and the Media, and now whites are being hunted on the streets by feral blacks.
But the Leftists dont want you to know it yet. They dont want you to know that youre part of an obvious, in-your-face race war. They want whites to feel an undertow of dread, to feel powerless and helpless against the black horde that is lurking inside the urban kraals.
The ever-mounting tide of hate from the Left is frightening people. Fear causes paralysis. And that leads to inaction, whether by not acting against it, or refusing to accept the truth.
Face the truth: the race war has begun, and the feral blacks are the shock troops.
RIP. Murder One.
RIP and may the perp rot in hell.
Lock and Load brother...smoke 'em if you got 'em.
Are you kidding? With the pansies populating the judicial system here, lacking the guts to make this piece of steaming excrement ride the needle?
Yeah, I guess like laws against murder, etc. when you just know that person across from you is the wrong color...it's ok then, Babbitt bothered the thug simply by existing so he had to take the law into his own hands.
Seriously, though, I think you're onto something, and Obama really has spread a genuine contempt for the law throughout the land. Watching him ignore it and just simply do whatever he wants is having an unfortunate trickle-down effect.

Since beginning in the money related industry, I have dependably worked with Windows (PCs). I don't have much involvement with Apple's Macintosh PCs (Macs) so the data I impart to you will be centered around PCs. All exchanging stages and programming are PC good. The inverse is valid with Macs where just a couple exchanging stages and programming are perfect. Like whatever else, you get what you pay for in a PC. There is a premium on Macs contrasted with PCs, which is typically double the expense. Macintoshes, be that as it may, are well constructed and accompany great Apple computer parts.
PCs then again are an alternate story. Brand name PCs, for example, Dell, HP, and Acer, utilize some exceptionally modest segments in their PCs and the lifespan is not the length of it ought to be. These modest parts may not completely use a portion of the key elements which you need in a PC, for example, the processor. Keeping in mind you might have an extraordinary processor; alternate internals in the PC won't not advance the processor as they ought to. As such, you paid for a premium processor that you will never completely use.

Marvel Assembles an Official Title for Third "Avengers" Movie
Comic Books, Film
This is the sixth in a series of examinations of comic book urban legends and whether they are true or false. Click here for an archive of the previous five.
Let's begin!
COMIC URBAN LEGEND: After the Captain Marvel decision, DC bought Fawcett's characters.
STATUS: False
The fact remains (as pointed out here) that Fawcett's sales had gone down a lot by the mid-50s, as did most superhero titles. The Fawcett/DC suit had begun at the height of Fawcett's sales, and by the time Fawcett settled, the books just weren't selling.
So they agreed to stop publishing Captain Marvel, and they sold their remaining characters to Charlton.
Years later, in the early 70s, DC decided they would like to publish Captain Marvel themselves (Marvel, during the 60s, had decided to claim all uses of the word Marvel as a trademark, and upon rumors of DC wanting to bring Captain Marvel back, they rushed out their version to take claim to the "Captain Marvel" trademark).
Still, they were not OWNED by DC.
DC simply leased the characters.
Years later, DC eventually just bough the characters outright (this seems to be DC's modus operandi…rather than have to do complicated deals, they just use their money to buy themselves out of complicated deals…see the Wonder Woman deal from here.)
"In 1998, to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Superman's first appearance, the Superman titles tried an interesting idea.
Each title would depict Superman in a different "era.—
THAT was the basis of the "Time and Time Again" storyline? Boy, that was subtle.
Uh… Ben? "Time and Time Again" came out around 1993/1994.
Yeah, the Time and Time Again storyline was a different time travel storyline. It was in the Superman titles of (VERY late 1990, but mainly) 1991. It was a really good crossover, I thought.
Actually, it was the Dominus storyline right after Superman lost the 'Electric Superman' powers that the rumour refers to. Dominus was a cosmic being that split the timeline into 4 distinct ones that Superman had to live through to see some purpose through for Dominus. Time & Time Again was a far different (and better) tale where a fight with a Linear Man sent Superman hurtling through time. One of his stops, coincidentally enough, was in WW II where he saved a Jewish convoy from death at the hands of the Nazis, led by an immortal named Mr. Z, who would plague Superman in his home era of the 1990's.
Now that Superman/Jewish controversy was a funny story. They didn't wanna offend but here they cleary did . Why even do a story set in that era if it caused that much worry anyhow ?
I read an old…old…old interview ( Wizard maybe ) where Mark Bagley stated he got his start in New Universe. I don't think he ever told how. Maybe Marvel should do more tryout books since that one seemingly delieverd 2 to 3 stars to the industry.
It's amazing how much misinformation there is out there about the DC Comics' relationship with Captain MArvel. I don't think Fawcett sold All their other characters to Charlton, otherwise how would DC have been able to use them in the JLA/JSA crossover issue in the 1970's which brought back Spy Smasher, Mr. Scarlet, Ibis, etc? Or did they have to make a deal with Charlton for those characters, since Charlton was still going strong at that time?
I do know that Charlton did print some already-drawn Hoppy the Marvel Bunny stories, although they changed some details and called in "Happy, the Magic Bunny."
Carmine Infantino, publisher of DC at the time, tells me that it was his idea, in 1972, to bring back The Big Red Cheese, just 'cause he wanted to, called up Fawcett, and they said to make them an offer. He thinks they were just happy to get rid of him. The purchjase of the rights of the character did happen later, after he was gone from the company.
Captain Zorikh
And oh, yeah, Marvel had come out with their Captain AMrvel in 1967, years before DC acquired the Fawcett character, but right after Myron Fass had shut down his short-lived Captain Marvel" title. In the Marvel Masterworks edition, Roy Thomas says publisher MArtin Goodman thought that Marvel Comics ought to have its own Captain Marvel, and told Stan Lee to create one.
I really liked that timesplit/Dominus storyline.
Runner-up Mike Worley was a personal friend of mine when I lived in Kansas City in the early 90s and he drew the cover to the third issue of my Slave Labor series Breakneck Blvd.

John Hiatt & the Combo
Known for a distinctively gruff voice that masks his deft touch with a pen, John Hiatt is probably Indiana's third most famous native-born rocker after John Mellencamp and Axl Rose. He's got plenty of mailbox money from songs he wrote for folks like Bonnie Raitt ("Thing Called Love") and Bon Jovi ("Have a Little Faith in Me") but has built up a respectable following for his own solo albums, which can be pricklier and more exposed than the artists who cover him. Hiatt's latest is 2012's Mystic Pinball (New West), which mingles cantankerous wisdom with feelings that can bruise as easily as any younger man's.
