Marvel Assembles an Official Title for Third "Avengers" Movie
Comic Books, Film
IDW Publishing will collect Bravo for Adventure, a rarely seen story legendary artist Alex Toth, as part of its Library of American Comics.
Out of print for three decades, the original 48-page story about "knock-about pilot and reluctant swashbuckler" Jesse Bravo was created for a French publisher, but a planned graphic novel was never released. It was later serialized in Warren Publishing's comics magazine The Rook before reappearing again, with additional Jesse Bravo short stories, at a couple of other publishers. Toth never completed his full story.
As a kid, The Phantom was one of my favorite comic strips. So last year, I was enthused when I learned that writer Jeff Parker was collaborating with artist Marc Laming on a miniseries called Kings Watch, starring Flash Gordon, The Phantom and Mandrake the Magician.
Ahead of the July release of the trade paperback collection, I spoke with Laming about the miniseries, and to briefly discuss how the project has opened the door for future work for him. My thanks to Laming for his time and to series editor Nate Cosby for facilitating the interview.

If I had $15, I'd be tempted to blow it all on the recolored Death of Superman collection for the '90s nostalgia. But then I'd probably flip through it and come to my senses, and instead get something new like Fatale #12 ($3.50) by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips, which looks like it's going to be a trip, flashing back to Medieval times but self-contained as a good entry point for new readers. That's smart comics. Speaking of smarty-pants, I'd probably get The Manhattan Projects #9 ($3.50) by Jonathan Hickman and Nick Pitarra. It's the first part of a two-part story about scientists trying to take over the world. There will probably be lots of words that leave me dizzy. I likely wouldn't be able to resist Matt Wagner writing The Shadow: Year One #1 ($3.99) because, you know, The Shadow knows. I haven't been following IDW's G.I. Joe universe but G.I. Joe #1 ($3.99) by Fred Van Lente and Steve Kurth seems like a good opportunity to try it out. And I'd finish it off with Cyber Force #3 by Marc Silvestri and Koi Pham because it's free.
With $30, I would add to the above. Darkhawk is on the cover of Avengers Arena #4 ($2.99) by Dennis Hopeless and Alessandro Vitti, so I'd be compelled to buy that. I've been meaning to check out Erik Burnham and Dan Schoening's Ghostbusters since I hear it's real fun, so the relaunched Ghostbusters #1 ($3.99) is a perfect opportunity. Morning Glories #24 ($2.99) by Nick Spencer and Joe Eisma seems too intriguing to pass up. I am so behind on the X-books, but I'd be real tempted to try Brian Michael Bendis and Chris Bachalo's Uncanny X-Men #1 ($3.99).
My splurge item would be tough. I'd be real tempted to get either the Iron Man Omnibus collecting the entire run of David Michelinie, Bob Layton and John Romita Jr., including the famous alcoholism story, or Counter X: Generation X – Four Days by Brian Wood. But I'd probably end up instead getting the Daredevil By Mark Waid, Vol. 1 hardcover for $35. I don't know, do I need to justify this purchase? It's probably the most beloved superhero comic of last year, maybe for the last couple of years. It paved the way for similarly rejuvenating series at Marvel like Hawkeye, Captain Marvel, and Young Avengers. The art by Paolo Rivera and Marcos Martin is swoon-worthy. And it wants to be on my bookshelf, dagnabbit!

If I had $15 (big "if" this week!), I'd take a break from the struggles of adult life and find sanctuary in the pages of high mythology thanks to Jason Aaron and Esad Ribic's Thor: God of Thunder #4 (Marvel, $3.99). Aaron and Ribic have really build up an excellent foil for Thor in the God-Killer, and also snuck in the idea of Young Thor and Old Thor – something I'd love to see expounded upon in their own series or one-shot (hint-hint). Second up would be the startling potent promise of Star Wars #1 (Dark Horse, $2.99). I never thought I'd see Brian Wood do a Star Wars comic, but I'm so glad he is – and seemingly doing it on his own terms. Thinking of him writing Princess Leia, and the potential there specifically has been rolling around in my brain for weeks. Third, I'd get two promising artist-centric series (at least for me) in B.P.R.D.: Hell On Earth — Abyss Time #1 (Dark Horse, $3.50) and TMNT: Secret of the Foot Clan #1 (IDW, $3.99). James Harren and Mateus Santolouco, respectively, are two artists I've been keen on for the past year and both of these books look like potential breakouts to a bigger stage. On the TMNT side, I've always thought Shredder and the Foot Clan to be one of the most overlooked great villains in comics, so I'm glad to see some focus on that and some potential answers.
If I had $30, I'd continue my super(comic)market sweep with Womanthology: Space #4 (IDW, $3.99). This series has two things I love: new, young creators and a space theme. I've been on a space opera/sci-fi kick for a while now thanks to Saga and re-reading some Heinlein, so this anthology series comes to me most fortuitously. Next up would be Legend of Luther Strode #2 (Image, $3.50). Luther Strode is a real down-and-out kind of hero, like some sort of action-based Charlie Brown. Tradd Moore's artwork really makes this sing, too. Finally, I'd get two Marvel books with Secret Avengers #36 (Marvel, $3.99) and Wolverine and the X-Men #23 (Marvel, $3.99). I'm gritting my teeth on the latter – not because it's bad, but because it isn't as good for me as the previous arcs. For Secret Avengers, I feel Rick Remender and Matteo Scalera's run on this has been sadly overlooked in the wave of Marvel NOW books, but this mega-arc about the Descendents and now Black-Ant has been great. I'd love to see Black-Ant as a permanent part of the Marvel U.
If I could splurge, I'd throw practicality out the door and shell out big bucks for the Black Incal deluxe hardcover (Humanoids, $79.95). There's few times I'd spend nearly 80 bucks on a comic, but this classic story by Alejandro Jodorowsky and Moebius is one of those once-in-a-blue-moon kind of things. This has been reprinted numerous times (I have an older one), but I'm re-buying the story here for the deluxe treatment this volume has with its large size.
Like a lot of kids who grew up reading Savage Sword of Conan, I knew I liked the art, but wasn't aware of how much true greatness Marvel's black-and-white magazine packed into its pages. It wasn't until later that I started paying attention to artists' names and learned about people like Neal Adams, John Buscema and Walt Simonson. And it wasn't until this week that I learned Alex Toth was one of the Savage Sword artists as well. The legendary cartoonist and animation designer drew ten pin-ups for the magazine, nine of which have turned up on the Michael Sporn Animation blog. See some highlights after the break (including a Justice Society piece too nice not to share) and the whole awesome gallery in the link.
Recently, an off-hand tweet by Kurt Busiek brought something interesting to mind. First, the tweet: "There are SUPERMAN BY GARCIA-LOPEZ and BATMAN BY ARCHIE GOODWIN hardcovers coming. Life is good."
The two books he's talking about are Adventures of Superman: Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez and Tales of the Batman: Archie Goodwin, both hardcovers and both scheduled for release in April. It's interesting because, by and large, DC Comics hasn't released a lot of books focusing on a creator. Sure, the publisher has made exceptions for Alan Moore (DC Universe: The Stories of Alan Moore), Jack Kirby (Jack Kirby Omnibus) and Geoff Johns (The Flash by Geoff Johns Omnibus), but seeing it done for creators like Goodwin and Garcia-Lopez feels different somehow. While Goodwin was a positively epic force during his time in comics, he's not exactly a household name in the modern parlance of comics fans (unfortunately), and Garcia-Lopez was an artist, not a writer like all of those listed above. DC, and comics in general, has shown itself to be very writer-centric in terms of the attribution of works, so for me this is a breakthrough — or at least a crack in the wall.
Spurred on by these ideas, I'm beginning to think of what else, and who else, DC could capitalize on with its massive library of work created in the past 78 years. Here are some ideas:
Yesterday we kicked off our holiday gift-giving guide, where we asked creators like Jim McCann, Matt Kindt and more for gift suggestion and what they'd want to receive this year. Today we're back with six more creators, and we asked them the same questions:
1. What comic-related gift or gifts would you recommend giving this year, and why?
2. What gift (comic or otherwise) is at the top of your personal wish list, and why?
So without further ado, let the joy continue …
Jeff Parker
1. If you have young children, you can give them hours of quality time with any of Dark Horse's Harvey Comics collections. My kids have been poring through them repeatedly. I'll be following up with old back issues of Casper, Dot, Richie Rich and Hot Stuff from the local comics shops; they're always very cheap.
2. I would not sneeze at getting that Donald Duck: Lost in the Andes volume from Fantagraphics.
Jeff Parker is the writer of Hulk, Thunderbolts and the webcomic Bucko.
Tim Seeley
1. I'm a firm believer in buying comics for everyone on your list, even if they aren't an avid fan. Make 'em a fan! All-Star Superman for the superhero fan, Dungeons & Dragons from IDW for the gamer, Habibi for the sophisticated reader, and, of course, my Hack/Slash Omnibi for the horror fan. Or, if you're planning on dropping a bit more, might I suggest an iPad, loaded with comics apps?
2. I want the collected version of the web strip OGLAF, which I thoroughly enjoy. I wouldn't mind a CS Moore Witchblade statue to inspire me while I write.
Tim Seeley seems to be all over the place lately, whether it's writing the new Bloodstrike series from Extreme or Witchblade for Top Cow, drawing issues of Marvel's Generation Hope, or working on his own creations like Hack/Slash and Jack Kraken. There's a good chance I forgot something, but you can follow him on Twitter to learn more.

As we're heading towards the middle of August, it's no surprise that curiosity is getting me to pick up more than a few DC books just see how particular series "end;" I'd be getting Justice League of America #60 and Legion of Super-Heroes #16 (both DC, $2.99) anyway, because I've been following those series for awhile, but I'm likely to add Batman #713 (DC, $2.99) to the pile as well, if only to see the explanation as to why Dick quits being Batman before the big relaunch. But it's not all endings for me with my $15 this week; I'd also make a point of grabbing Daredevil #2 (Marvel, $2.99), because the first issue was just breathtakingly good, and the series became a must-read before I'd even reached the last page.
If I had $30 this week, I'd add to my list of DC final issues with Supergirl #67 (DC, $2.99), which Kelly Sue DeConnick has talked up in interviews as being the highpoint of her short run to date and a great capper to the series as a whole. I'd also check in with the third issue of David Hahn's All Nighter (Image, $2.99), as well as see if Nick Spencer's Iron Man 2.0 is worth a look with the mini-collection of the first three issues, Iron Man 2.0: Modern Warfare (Marvel, $4.99).
Fantagraphics sent over their list of books debuting at the San Diego Comic-Con later this month, and boy is it packed tighter than my suitcase on vacation day. The publisher will have almost two dozen new books at the show, including the last Mome; new stuff from Michael Kupperman, the Hernandez Bros. and Johnny Ryan; tons of Eurocomics; a Lou Reed/Edgar Allan Poe joint; and more. Check them out:
Love & Rockets New Stories 4 by Los Bros Hernandez: Featuring new stories by Jaime and Gilbert, including new material featuring Maggie set in the present and during her teen years.
Mark Twain's Autobiography by Michael Kupperman: Probably the one I've been looking forward to the most, Kupperman publishes Mark Twain's "biography" since the day the author/humorist died through last year — including his affair with Marilyn Monroe and his time-traveling adventures with Einstein.
Prison Pit Vol. 3 by Johnny Ryan: More deranged, twisted ultraviolent fun from Ryan.
If you were one of those folks who not heard of artist Nick Dragotta before this year, it's quite feasible you learned about the storyteller after his work on Fantastic Four 588 (the silent mourning for Johnny Storm issue). If Dragotta's next project is half as successful as I expect it to be, even more folks will know and like his art. That project? He and writer Joe Casey's six-issue Marvel miniseries, Vengeance [set to be released July 6]. As described by Marvel: "When MAGNETO of the X-Men tries to rescue a young Mutant on the run, he accidently kicks off a series of events that will shake the very Marvel Universe to it's core! Who are the new TEEN BRIGADE?! Who are the Brotherhood and what do they want with the YOUNG MASTERS OF EVIL?! And how is the RED SKULL pulling the strings from beyond the grave?" My thanks to Dragotta for the interview (and for the above preview art from the first issue). Once you've read this interview, be sure to also read Timothy Callahan's When Words Collide column/Joe Casey interview.

If I had $15: It would be tough. For one thing, DC has three books for $5 or more each that I'm interested in — the last issues of Justice League Generation Lost and Brightest Day, as well as Action Comics #900. If I bought all three, well … I couldn't buy all three, at least not for $15. I stopped reading Brightest Day several issues ago, so I'm more curious about the return of a certain character to the DCU proper than anything. And I'll probably hold off on Action as well, at least for now. But Justice League Generation Lost's final issue ($4.99) would be at the top of my buy list for sure.
Over on the CBR mothership, two potential "book of the year" candidates are talking about what makes them tick. First up is Daniel Clowes, author of Wilson. In a report on Clowes's Dan Nadel-hosted spotlight panel at APE, CBR's Karl Kelly reveals that Clowes thinks none too highly of the readability of classic comics even by artists he admires:
"I realized at a certain point that the thing that keeps me drawing comics and the thing that has always moved me along is that comics history is really disappointing," Clowes responded. "It's not the same as the history of novels, history of art, history of movies, the body of work is pretty spotty. The things we imagined don't really exist. We imagine that Alex Toth did really amazing comics in the 50s that really worked, that were like Howard Hawk's movies, but he didn't do that. He never made a comic you could read. It's terrible, and I say that thinking that he was one of the greatest geniuses of the 20th Century."
This Wednesday will see the release of the third issue of writer Roger Langridge and artist Chris Samnee's Thor: The Mighty Avenger. Anyone reading our weekly What Are You Reading column knows how much I've praised the first two issues. Samnee and I spoke briefly at this past June's HeroesCon and from there an email interview came together. In addition to Thor, we discuss some of Samnee's past work as well as his upcoming collaboration with writer Jim McCann on I Am An Avenger 1. Earlier today, CBR posted a five-page preview to Thor: The Mighty Avenger 3.
O'Shea: What's the most enjoyable aspect of working from a Roger Langridge script?
Samnee: Roger's scripts are really funny – I laugh out loud when I read them! I love the humor as well as his ability to tell quiet, emotional moments. Since Roger's also an artist, he's really good with pacing and page turns as well. And the scripts have a very silver-age feel, which is right up my alley.
O'Shea: I keep re-reading Thor: The Mighty Avenger 1 trying to figure out what my favorite scene was–and I can 't decide if it's when we first see the Rainbow Bridge on page 2; or the first scene where Thor smiles. Was the smiling Thor a character suggestion from Langridge or was that your idea?
Samnee: The smile was in the script. Roger made clear right from the outline for the book that this Thor smiles and enjoys himself. For me, that was one of the most enjoyable aspects of the book, as an artist and a reader of comics. I've worked on a lot of heavy books – it's a nice change of pace to be on something a bit lighter, a comic where the characters are having fun.

Is Sanofi-Aventis Breaking Out?
Published on Friday, 08 March 2013 07:20 Written by TradersHuddle Wire
New York, March 8th (TradersHuddle.com) - Shares of Sanofi-Aventis (NYSE:SNY) closed the session at $49.09 just above calculated resistance at $48.75. The stock effectively broke out and grasped the attention of momentum traders, which could eventually push the stock to a different trading range.
Sanofi-Aventis (NYSE:SNY) is a global pharmaceutical company that researches, develops and manufactures prescription pharmaceuticals and vaccines. The Company develops cardiovascular, thrombosis, metabolic disorder, central nervous system, internal medicine and oncology drugs, and vaccines.
The stock was trading in a well defined range with support at $46.16 and resistance at $48.75. Given that this range was broken, traders will be closely monitoring Sanofi-Aventis' price action to gather clues on the future direction.
From a technical perspective, it can be expected that previous resistance becomes support, as the new range gets defined. However, given that Sanofi-Aventis is still near the broken resistance level, traders will be focusing on the $48.75 level to see if the stock holds the breakout without rolling over.

The former editor for the alternative weekly Dallas Observer, Lyons writes about her membership of nearly two decades in a poor South Dallas African-American Pentecostal church, the Body of Christ Assembly. Though she found the church as a reporter in search of a story about supernatural healing from crack cocaine addiction, she arrived a fully formed believer in search of her own healing from her attraction to women and her depression. The book tracks the lives of the founding pastor, Fredrick Eddington Sr., a onetime drug addict with schizophrenic tendencies who overcame his problems through faith, and his wife and co-pastor, Diane, a legally blind, captious woman for whom life is a tightrope between holiness and hell. Lyons writes searing and sympathetic portraits of the down-and-out black residents of South Dallas. But this slim memoir is short on historical, political and economic analysis and long on descriptions of moral sins, from the sexual to the selfish. The book's overwhelming emphasis on "deliverance" often runs up against the realities of poverty and exploitation. Lyons briefly acknowledges this during a church mission trip to Botswana, but never fully examines it. Readers looking for an intimate peek at black Pentecostal religiosity, in its successes and shortcomings, will appreciate the book.

Julie Lyons was working as a crime reporter when she followed a hunch into the South Dallas ghetto. She wasn't hunting drug dealers, but drug addicts who had been supernaturally healed of their addictions. Was there a church in the most violent part of the city that prayed for addicts and got results?
At The Body of Christ Assembly, a rundown church on an out-of-the-way street, Lyons found the story she was looking for. The minister welcomed criminals, prostitutes, and street people–anyone who needed God. He prayed for the sick, the addicted, and the demon-possessed, and people were supernaturally healed.
Lyons's story landed on the front page of the Dallas Times Herald. But she got much more than just a great story, she found an unlikely spiritual home. Though the parishioners at The Body of Christ Assembly are black and Pentecostal, and Lyons is white and from a traditional church background, she embraced their spirituality–that of "the Holy Ghost and fire."
It's all here in Holy Roller–the stories of people desperate for God's help. And the actions of a God who doesn't forget the people who need His power.
From the Hardcover edition.
Editorial Reviews
This memoir of how one newspaper story led Lyons (former editor in chief, Dallas Observer) to join and become a leader in the Body of Christ Assembly in South Dallas is as much a paen to the congregation as it is the author's story. We learn of Lyons's childhood in Wisconsin and her early Christian life, but we also are treated to the backgrounds of her husband, the minister and his wife, and various other church members. At the Body of Christ Assembly, the Holy Spirit is an active presence. Stories of healing, speaking in tongues, and the casting out of demons fill these pages. The church's mission to Botswana provides an international angle to its story. Lyons contrasts her church with other local Pentecostal churches, describing sexual improprieties of other churches' ministers and their loud but spiritually empty worship. Some of her views, including that homosexuality is a sin and that men and women cannot be platonic friends, will draw some readers and deter others. VERDICT Ultimately, this book will appeal to a small, self-selected group of readers, as the author's opinions do not invite those with other spiritual opinions.—Eric Norton, McMillan Memorial Lib., Wisconsin Rapids, WI

Read an Excerpt
I was driving on the wild frontier of gangsta-land, a place I'd learn to navigate by the sites where people got murdered. South Dallas always stayed crazy, and I was just getting used to the experience—the occasional
kak-kak-kak of semiautomatic-weapon fire, the graffiti tags of theTrey-Five-Seven (.357) Crips, the distinctive choreography of drug dealing, with crack rocks passing invisibly from hand to hand in furtive motions that I came to recognize from afar.
I was twenty-seven years old, white, and quite conspicuous in black South Dallas the evening in late April 1990 when I set out to find a different kind of story for the Dallas Times Herald. Since starting a job two months earlier as a crime reporter, I'd been getting to know the roughest parts of the city, places like this. It was nothing like the small Wisconsin town where I grew up.
I'd tell myself I wasn't scared, but I think I was driving too fast to know for sure. This time I wasn't chasing flashing lights toward Bexar Street, hoping to get there before the witnesses and walking wounded had melted away in the dark. Instead, I was looking for the scene of a miracle.
There would be no crime-scene tape marking the spot. It was just me in my little car, prowling the streets and looking for a spiritual outpost. I had no idea what it would look like; all I knew was there had to be a church in this part of the inner city where people came searching for a supernatural breakthrough. I had decided it would be impossible to live in this crumbling, seemingly godforsaken territory without clinging to some shred of hope that things could get better. I was determined to find the place people go when despair drives them to seek a miracle.
I turned a corner and entered a neighborhood with all the familiar signs: slender boys with darting eyes, standing like pickets on the corner, beckoning to people in cars that were slowly passing through. I steered around potholes and broken glass in the street and looked past the drug sentries for evidence of light and life in the neighborhood's
churches. You'd find Baptists on one corner andHoly Sanctifieds on the other, with a House of Prayer for All People wedged in between. They stood as silent witnesses while hell swarmed all around them. The truth is, I really didn't know what I was looking for. I just knew I couldn't leave South Dallas until I found it.
All this began with a lie, amade-up story idea that I pitched tomy editors at the newspaper. See, there are these preachers in the ghetto who pray for crack-cocaine addicts, and people are supposedly getting miraculously
"healed." And oh, I know a bunch of these preachers. The best you could say in my defense is that I thought about the story so much that it became real to me. Before moving to Dallas, I had lived in Belfast,Northern Ireland, where theTroubles erupted regularly into fire bombings, shootings, and retaliatory acts between working-class Catholics and Protestants. I had gone to the province of Ulster to write the story of a terrorist who found God and was now trying to lead his former enemies to reconciliation. I learned while living in Belfast that among certain types of Christians, unexplainable things were almost commonplace. You just had to know where to look.
My previous work as a crime reporter at the Seattle Times had led me to believe that miracle-working preachers could be found in any major city. In Dallas in 1990, the crack epidemic was leaving a trail of wreckage—of neighborhoods gone to hell in a swath of murder and ruin. Thanks to my experiences in Belfast and Seattle, I had come up with a simple theorem: where desperation multiplied, there you would find God.
At the DallasTimes Herald we were always looking for new angles to pursue in reporting the crack-cocaine story. I needed something bigger than yet another shooting, drug raid, or body found in the street. Why not make my mark at the paper by uncovering the miraculous? Here, then, was the problem: I didn't know any preachers who fit this description. There is a game that newspaper reporters play: you invest as little work as possible before pitching a story to your editor. That way, if your editor rejects the idea, you haven't wasted too much effort. I mentioned my story idea of supernatural healing, and to my surprise and secret horror, the editors seized on it immediately. They scheduled the story for Sunday A-1. I had just a few days to find my mythical ministers and write a lengthy feature story about themin time for the early edition, the "bulldog."
That's why I was cruising aimlessly through South Dallas. As evening moved quickly toward night, I was way more scared ofmy editors than I was of the ghetto. I passed dozens of churches without stopping. If the lights weren't on, I kept rolling. I eventually turned onto a one-block street, Brigham Lane, and saw two churches, one on each corner.The first seemed inconsequential, with a sagging roof and handmade sign. But at the other end of the block stood a tidy, brick-walled structure. I noted the affiliation: Church of God in Christ. Black Pentecostals.
Holy rollers. I aimed for the far corner.
I had my music cranked, a soca artist fromTobago named Shadow, who had an insidiously hummable tune, "Tabanka." It has something to do with the sickness you feel when you're hopelessly attracted to someone. I craved themelody and syncopation ofmy beloved Caribbean music. All the plastic parts of my little Honda were rattling with the heavy bass line, and the noise helped to bury my nervousness.
I was driving past the scruffy-looking church when something intensely spiritual happened. I don't know how else to say this: God was in the car with me. I could feel his presence, a palpable thing that made my senses light up, even amid the dissonance of blaring soca. I might have been a tough-minded crime reporter, but I had recently
reconnected with the faith of my childhood, and I was engaged to be married to a man who was a devout Christian. I was far from figuring things out but eager to investigate anything tha tmight shed more light on questions about God's work on earth.
Is that really you, God? I thought.What else could I think? I turned the music down and pulled my car to the curb.
You want me to stop here, don't you? I said tomyself and, I suppose, to God as well. Just then a girl popped out the front door of the dilapidated church. As the girl skipped down the sidewalk, I got out of my car, reporter's notebook in hand, and stopped her just short of the house that stood next-door.
"Do you believe in healing prayer?" I asked without introduction.
"Yes!" she said enthusiastically. She was brown-skinned, with pigtails, or so I recall. I don't remember very clearly anymore. I guessed she was about ten, but back then I wasn't good at estimating children's ages.
"Does your minister pray for drug addicts?" I asked.
"Yes!" she answered again.
"Are any getting healed?"
I asked her to point out her pastor to me. At that moment a black man wearing a suit jacket and tie stepped outside the church's front door. Several churchmembers were visible in the dimyellow light of the tiny foyer behind him. A thought flashed in my brain: Oh God, don't let him be one of those overbearing egotistical preachers. I'm not even sure where that objection came from—probably from a bad experience I'd had in my years as a reporter.
I walked over and introduced myself as a journalist. The pastor was Fredrick L. Eddington Sr.He was tall and I am not, and I remember he bent down slightly as he listened to me.
"Do you pray for crack addicts?" I asked. Might as well get right to the point.
"Yes," the pastor said.
"Are they getting healed?"
The pastor paused for a moment. "Some of themare," he said.We chatted some more, and I got the impression he was choosing his words carefully. Still, our conversation was casual.To listen to Pastor Eddington, you'd have thought we were discussing the weather or the Dallas Cowboys. But we were talking about miracles. This wasn't at all what I'd expected.The pastor came across as humble, gentle, plainspoken. And he didn't seem the least bit surprised that a young white woman—a stranger who clearly didn't belong in this neighborhood—had suddenly materialized out of the darkness.
I was looking for a feature story to run in the Sunday paper.What I was about to discover was a passionate, self-taught man who would introduce me to a world of spirits, healing, prophecy, and warfare waged to the death between invisible forces of good and evil. To Pastor Eddington these things were not superstition, legend, or overwrought emotion.This was reality, and over the next few months I would see it for myself.
Months later, talking with Diane Eddington, the pastor's wife, I inquired about the little girl who had come skipping down the walk in front of the church, telling me that healings took place there. I asked the First Lady to point out the little girl so I could thank her, and Diane told me there was no such girl. I thought back to the night I had found
this church. The sun had just set, it was a neighborhood where the crackle of gunfire was often heard, and a young girl was the only person on the sidewalk. I realized that no parent would dream of allowing her child to be out alone at night. Not only that, but no one who attended the service that evening had seen a girl matching the description I gave.
So who was the girl I talked to? Diane had an answer.
"Oh," she said, "you was just seeing an angel."

Holy Roller by Julie Lyons is an intriguing look at Black Pentecostal Christians by a woman who calls herself one in everything except one small factor: she's white. Lyons was working as reporter for a newspaper in Dallas when she promised her editors a story about churches in the ghetto who were claiming to heal crack users of their addiction. The story led her onto a personal journey of faith and recovery from her own sin, including that of same-sex attraction. The book tracks her membership at a small church in South Dallas through its battles with the city council, countering demons in Botswana, and seeing their community changed by the power of the Holy Spirit. Lyons' story suffers from a lack of continuity, the story didn't seem to flow smoothly, jumping from subject from chapter to chapter, and readers looking for the miracles promised on the dust jacket will be a bit disappointed because the focus is more on Lyons and her church than those who were changed by it. It's still a compelling story about how God can use the least of those to change the world. The transformation of Lyons is incredible, and her stories of demon oppression will unsettle those Christians who deny the forces of evil at work in the world. It's definitely a great read that will make readers think hard about their own faith and church.
4 stars Julie Lyons was searching for a story when she found The Body of Christ Assembly in South Dallas, Texas. She was looking for miracle healings. Her instincts lead her to a crime ridden area in South Dallas, Texas. Her book Holy Roller follows the lives of Pastors Frederick and Diane Eddington. Bro. Frederick was a drug addict and borderline schizophrenic. His wife Diane is legally blind. Eddington welcomed the outcasts of society, he prayed for them and they were miraculously healed. Lyons shares the stories of the members of The Body of Christ Assembly. Lyons and her husband are members of the church, although their skin is white and the other members are dark, they are readily accepted. Holly Roller is beautifully written. Lyons challenged me to look at different ways to worship. My church is a little more traditional. While that may meet my needs, it may not meet the needs of others. Lyons is brutally honest in her book. A few places may offend others. I found her book interesting.
The memoir of a white, middle class, investigative journalist who is a member of a poor, black, Pentacostal church in South Dallas where addicts leave services truly cured of their addictions. Lyons writes well, and tells her story without preaching. She just describes events as she experienced them. That experience is naturally colored by her beliefs, but she isn't "in your face" about it. Lyons also gives an even-handed description of Pentacostal services, showing that they aren't always the frenetic stereotype expected by most people. An enjoyable read, this one might even be interesting to non-believers.
Dallas reporter Julie Lyons was researching an article in the South Dallas slum involving former crack drug addicts claiming they had been miraculously healed at The Body of Christ Assembly Church. She finds the dilapidated church in an off the main road street of the ghetto. The minister especially welcomed anyone in search of God whether they were possessed, criminals, addicts, hookers or the homeless. Instead of telling them to leave, he prayed for their souls. Her article on the church became the front page of the Dallas Times Herald while Jule a middle class white female with a typical Christian upbringing found the Pentecostal Black church healing as she accepts and welcomes "the Holy Ghost and fire." The best part of this memoir focuses on the impoverished flock and the co-pastors Fredrick Eddington Sr., a former drug addict with schizophrenic tendencies, and his wife Diane, who though legally blind sees life as a war between holy living and hell. The individual portraits clearly show Julie Lyons cares about the congregation and the pastors yet still enables the reader to see deep into the demons that haunt them as well as her own. Although the well written memory goes deep into the soul of each person featured, it lacks a sense of neighborhood beyond the vivid description of decay; there is no major look at the impact of the impact of abject poverty, which eats at the souls of the core flocks on causing sinning. Still this is a fascinating look at a Black Pentecostal Church trying to deliver redemption to its flock. Harriet Klausner

give's you that extra leg room as stated in the description and a quality finish
Just what I needed for a comfortable ride
I just installed this seat and have only done a couple of shorter trips but so far I really like being moved back those 2" and slightly lower. Nice quality piece as well. My local dealer had nothing to move me back 2" on my '05 electra.
This gave me the leg room I needed, and also got me off the tank. Sits you back at least 2" and also down at least one because of the bucket formed seat. High quality material and thick, stitching matched the HD tour pack but wish they would offer that also. Worth the coin...Easy install.
Wanted to stretch out a bit more on my FatBoy Lo and the Daddy Long Legs delivered as promised, pushed me back about 2" and actually feels like a better sitting position compared to the stock seat. Have taken several 100+ mile trips since and feels great. Looks good as well!
Didnt move me back as much as it claims, however nice looking and comfortable
I am 6 ft 1 & 300 lbs. I ride a 97 Heritage. This seat is awesome. Not too wide and not too skinny. I finally feel like I fit my bike. My legs are more comfortable. Carpeted steel frame underneath is very nice.
Nice seat and perfect fit!

Can anyone help me diagnose why removing a directory would be so slow on my Mac?
$ du -hs mydir/

This is my local machine, which is a pretty beefy Mac Pro with OS X 10.8. The directory has a lot of files and is pretty big, but over two minutes to delete it? Would this be expected?
Is there anyway I can figure out what, if anything, is making this process slow?
Thanks in advance!

Traditional wound care & closure and advanced wound care & closure products are used to treat acute and chronic wounds. Chronic wounds are hard to heal wounds, which take substantial time to heal and are expensive to treat. Advanced wound care & closure products are emerging as a standard solution for treating chronic wounds. Traditional wound care & closure products are being increasingly substituted with advanced wound care & closure products due to their efficacy and effectiveness in managing wounds by enabling faster healing.
Attempts to reduce the duration of hospital stays in order to limit surgical healthcare costs, and the rising inclination towards products that enhance therapeutic outcomes are driving the demand for advanced wound care & closure products. The risks associated with ineffective wound healing promote the demand for combination dressings, which is a modern trend in the market that is replacing traditional wound dressing methods.
Smith and Nephew, Kinetic Concepts, 3M, BSN medical, Covidien, ConvaTech, Derma Sciences, Integra LifeSciences, Baxter International and Coloplast are some of the major players in the global advanced wound care and closure market.
The global advanced wound care and closure market has been segmented based on type, application, end users and geography. Based on type, the global market is segmented into advanced wound closure market and advanced wound care market. According to applications, the market is segmented into Burns, Ulcers and Surgical Wounds. Based on end users, the market is segmented into hospitals & community healthcare services and home healthcare. Geographically, the market is segmented into four regions, namely North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and LAMEA.
Key Benefits
Key Market Segments
Global advanced wound care and closure market is categorized into types, applications, end user and geography.
Advanced wound care and closure products have emerged as the promising solution in wound management. Wound closure devices, Haemostatic and sealing agents, and topical adhesives has proven their effectiveness in wound closing over traditional sutures and stapling wound closures as these advanced wound closures support scar free surgeries and offer number of benefits over conventional solutions. Moist wound dressings and composite dressings has changed the wound healing process. Traditional dressings are being increasingly substituted with moist and composite wound dressings, mainly due to their effectiveness in managing wounds by promoting faster healing. Active wound care has emerged as a most potent segment of advanced wound care and would become most preferable solution for wound management. Therapy devices such as Negative Pressure Wound Therapy systems, Pressure relief devices and other devices under clinical studies are the noval approach in the wound management. Rising lifestyle diseases that lead to chronic wounds such as diabetic foot ulcers and growing number of cosmetic, plastic and other surgical procedures has boosted the market growth. However, Reimbursement for advanced wound care and wound closure products is complex as these products are very expensive and experiencing significant price pressures.

Colonels, Tigers humbled
Published: Wednesday, April 22, 2009 at 10:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, April 22, 2009 at 10:58 a.m.
The sport of baseball can humble the best of teams.
Just look at what happened last week as proof.
A week ago, the very unassuming Nicholls State Colonels went into the new Alex Box Stadium and pulled off a major upset.
The Colonels pitched well and played error-free defense in a 3-1 win over the then No. 1 ranked LSU Tigers.
Nicholls used eight pitchers against the Tigers, limiting LSUs offense to just four hits. After starter Brad Delatte pitched the first two innings, the Tigers never saw the ball coming at the same angle or speed allowing them to zero in.
It was the type of victory that shouldve propelled a team to greater things, but that didnt happen.
Instead of carrying that momentum into its weekend Southland Conference series against Sam Houston State, Nicholls, instead, showed its immaturity.
It was clear that the Colonels werent mentally ready to play as Sam Houston outscored Nicholls 26-2 over the weekend.
Nicholls hadnt beaten LSU in the last 17 tries and obviously the Colonels never put that victory to bed. No matter how much a coach hopes his team can stay focused and move on to the next game, it just doesnt happen that way. Im sure the Colonels were still celebrating the LSU win, and Sam Houston made them pay for it.
The same can be said about LSU, even though the Tigers were trying to bounce back from a unexpected defeat.
After losing to Nicholls, I expected LSU to be fighting mad against Tennessee and it looked that way after an 18-3 win on Friday.
However, LSU struggled the rest of the weekend, losing 7-5 and 9-4 to a Volunteer team that had a 3-12 SEC record entering the series. It was the first time LSU lost an SEC series after a streak of nine-consecutive SEC series wins.
In Saturdays loss, LSU gave the game away with a season-high five errors. After that poor performance, LSU fell behind 9-0 early in Sundays game and couldnt rally from behind.
The Tigers seemingly played with a hangover from the loss to Nicholls, even though Fridays game gave no indication of it.
In no way is LSU derailed from its long-term goal of returning to Omaha, Neb., but the Tigers definitely have to wake up.
As far as the Colonels, unless they qualify for the Southland Conference Tournament, beating LSU is going to be the highlight of the 2009 season.
While last weekends results arent the end all for Nicholls and LSU, it proved that baseball is a strange game.
Nicholls and LSU had good reasons to play well last weekend, but that wasnt case.
Nicholls isnt quite ready to play consistent baseball, and LSU is just in a funk that has them struggling against lesser opponents.
That is why baseball is such a humbling game. Just when you think you are ready to roll, the game pulls you back down, and that is the beauty of it.

Posted on 02/21/2013 3:03:03 PM PST by null and void
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) A Canadian tourist Tuesday was found dead in a water tank on top of a downtown Los Angeles hotel.
Elisa Lam, 21, had last been seen at the hotel on Jan. 26.
Police and firefighters were summoned to the Cecil Hotel at 640 South Main St. shortly after 10 a.m., according to LAPD Officer Bruce Borihanh.
KNX 1070′s Claudia Peschiutta reports guests were disturbed to learn Lams nude body was found inside of one of four large water tanks.
A maintenance worker discovered the body after he received reports from hotel guests of low water pressure in the building and went up to the roof to investigate the cause.
Peschiutta reported a man who lives in the building said tenants were warned earlier in the day to avoid using the water.
One guest, however, said despite checking in Monday night, she only heard about the water tank once the investigation began.
I wanted to check out right away, the unidentified female said, adding that while she had not used the shower, she had been using water to drink, wash her hands, and brush her teeth. Im going to stay in the Westin [Hotel].
The fire department said health officials tested the water and found no hazardous materials.
I would think it had to be someone who is familiar with that hotel. Either a hotel employee or someone who does work for the hotel. Water tanks are not a usual dumping ground I'm guessing.
I'll bet that was not a very attractive body if it had been soaking for almost a month.
"Don't drink the water!"...
Eating Raoul
Drinking Elisa
That is pretty disgusting
Almost as bad as the poopers not working on a cruise ship.
What was the dead Canadian tourist doing in the water tank?
The 'stroke'
What did one cannibal who was eating a circus clown say to the other cannibal?
"you know, this tastes funny"
You may be right. now I see the story says she was nude. Who even thinks of a water tank for a dumping site? Who would know or have access to water tanks?
went skinny dippin and drowned?
Everyone is making jokes about the water and there is this poor young lady most likely murdered.
I HATE murderers.
Basil: "There's a tourist in the water tank!"
Manuel, laughing: "How a tortoise geet up there, Meester Faulty?"
Basil: "Don't mind Manuel. He's from Barcelona."
I could not agree more. It's pretty sad that FR is a site that at times can be as disgusting and Godless than the DUmp.
I cannot imagine joking about a young woman's death/murder. I guess the decline of a decent society can be seen witnessed as well. The really sad part is people will show up defending their "joke." Again...decent people don't do such things. Godless people do.
They've tried to clean it up in the last couple of years and market it as a budget boutique hotel in the hip downtown area, but it's really still just a fleabag joint on the edge of skid row. It's junkies and foreign tourists who don't know any better.
Agreed. Someone's daughter is dead at 21. Very sad.
We (FR) are supposed to be better than this. Life is supposed to be valued...and we are supposed to act towards people the way we want them to act towards us. Guess not.
Another opportunity for the Church Ladies of the Harper Valley PTA visiting us here to mount their high horses!
Inside or semi-inside job. You'd have to know those cisterns were there and how to get to them.
The news report at the source showed some elevator security video of the supposed victim acting suspiciously, like she was hiding from someone.
I could not agree more. It's pretty sad that FR is a site that at times can be as disgusting and Godless than the DUmp.
Oh come on. You didnt seem to be bothered when it was journalists in the tank for Obama, now, did you?
Doesn't look like a place to skinny dip.
Looks like a place for a sicko to dump a rape/murder victim.
Im trying to understand a technical issue with this story because something seems a bit weird beyond the finding of a body in a water tank. Ive worked in a wide range of commercial office buildings and number of large hotels and on many occasions, had to go on to the roof of many of them to do some work on cooling towers or other components of HVAC systems. Admittedly, I dont work on the water systems and none of my experiences involved Los Angeles. However, I dont ever remember being on a roof that had an accessible tank that was used for potable water never. For one thing, uncontrolled pollutants and insects could access it, in cold climes it would freeze and in warm climes it would get warm. There would be huge risks of legionnaires disease and moulds forming depending on the temperature etc etc. Yes, there needs to be a means of regulating building water pressures and flows . But do they really do this for potable water through the use of tanks that are accessible? I would have thought that a sealed tank would have been used, no? If a Freeper here has some experience in this area, I would greatly appreciate being enlightened
I saw clips this morning on the news of this young woman nervously hitting every button on the elevator on the day she went missing. She would stop on every floor, look nervously outside, then continue on. She was hiding from someone. She was very much afraid. Freepers, this is not a joking matter.
Wow. I have no idea what you are talking about...and no idea how the LSM and people making fun of a dead girl are alike. Of course, I guess you do not understand that I hold "US" to a higher standard than those who dwell on the other side. I expect crass and tasteless humor from them...but somehow think we should be different. Guess not. Funny thing is...I see DUmpters making fun of dead conservatives (like FR do dead libs)...but I don't see them making fun of dead young ladies whose politics are unknown. And yet...we are somehow better than them? In truth, yes, in beliefs, yes...but somehow not in character or honor.
I have been a member a long time; even longer under another name but for some reason, the jokes about this young lady really bothered me.
I am glad there are people like you here and for that reason, I will continue to do so.
There is no way this young woman would jump nude into a water tank on top of a seedy hotel.
She was murdered and should be treated as a murder victim. Not the butt of "tasteless" jokes.

4 reviews | 4.3 out of 5
This is our favorite Christmas movie. I bought it for my husband for Christmas. It comes in very nice packaging along with a small bell ornament to hang on your tree. Again, the packaging is very nice. I'm sure a lot of the price of the video went towards packaging but it was worth every penny since my husband likes the movie so much and I do as well.
I bought this as a christmas gift for my mom, but when I recieved it the box was crushed and had several dents. Other than that the quality is ok.
Wonderful set. The only way to go if you want yto purchase the movie as a gift.
My mom loves this movie so I got it for her for Christmas. She was excited about the gift, but even more happy for the ornament that came with it. Definitely a hit!

He likes me, he likes me not…. now that is the real question.
Eric and I say over and over again that when a man likes you, it's obvious (that phrase was even the title of the first chapter of our book "10 Things every Woman Needs to Know About Men.") However, given the high volume of questions we receive from readers asking us to decipher whether a guy likes them or not (and the fact that "Does He Like Me?" is the most popular article on the site), it obviously isn't so obvious to you when a guy likes you.
Even though I write about relationships for a living, I also used to get tripped up back when I was single and would catch myself spinning into analysis mode while trying to figure out how he felt . When you add emotions (and a bit of ego) into the mix, it can be hard to see things clearly. Instead you're seeing the situation through a lens of wishful thinking and sometimes a bit of self-deception.
Trust me, I know how confusing and frustrating it can be at times but the fact remains that when a guy likes you, it is obvious….especially when you know what signs to look for.
Read on for five tell-tale signs that he for sure likes you.
1. He initiates.
If you're at a party, he comes up to you and strikes up a conversation. If you're not in the same immediate vicinity, he reaches out to you. Finding an excuse to talk to you doesn't require much creativity. If he wants to get your attention, he'll think of something.
If a guy likes you, he might ask you for things he didn't necessarily need to ask you, or starts a conversation he didn't need to have with you. Maybe his company is hiring and he asks if you know anyone looking for a job, or he knows someone looking for a roommate and he asks if you know anyone, or he asks if you have any recommendations for a place to take his parents for dinner. When he wants to get your attention, he'll think of something, even if he just makes it up.
2. Listens to what you say and remembers the details.
When we like someone, we can't get enough. We want to know every detail, every story, even the insignificant ones. If a guy asks you a lot of questions about yourself and your life and shows a genuine interest in who you are and what you like, he is investing in you. You'll get further confirmation of this if he remembers the things you told him: where you went to high-school, your major in college, the name of your first pet.
QUIZ: Does He Like Me?
3. Body language cues.
A guy might come across all slick, but his body language can tell you a lot about how he really feels. Mirroring is one way to assess if he's into you. If you notice that he mimics your body language, it means he's trying to connect to you and is completely focused on you. Other body language cues to look out for is if he leans in when talking to you, maintains eye contact, and points his feet towards you.
Also notice if he looks at you after he makes a joke or does something funny. If he likes you, he'll look to see your reaction right away. Many experts claim that a guy's pupils will dilate if he's interested but this can be kind of tricky to assess. Another strong tell is if he finds ways to touch you. It could be "accidental" like brushing against your arm, seemingly innocent like a high-five that lingers a little longer that it usually would, or intentional like putting his hand on your when you're telling a story.

Professor Richard Susskind OBE
A pioneer in the field of information technology and law, Richard Susskind is IT Adviser to the Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales. He is the first Honorary Professor of Gresham College in London and the co-founder of the Centre for Law, Computers and Technology at the Law School of the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow. He is an independent adviser to major professional firms and to national governments, including chairing the UK's Advisory Panel on Public Sector Information (2003-2008).
Professor Susskind lectures internationally and has been invited to speak in over 40 countries. His research has ranged from innovative doctoral work during the 1980s in the field of expert systems, when he also developed ground-breaking systems in law and tax, to recent work blending legal, information and management theory supported by a series of empirical research projects.
His latest of seven books, 'The End of Lawyers? Rethinking the Nature of Legal Services', was published by OUP in 2008. In it, he argues that IT is bringing about fundamental changes in the ways lawyers and legal professionals do their work which will signal a fundamental shift in legal service from a form of advisory service to an Internet-enabled and often packaged service. Richard is also a law columnist for The Times.
Richard has a first class honours degree in law from the University of Glasgow and a doctorate in law and computers from Balliol College, Oxford. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh and of the British Computer Society, and President of the Society for Computers and Law.
