"Bieszczady-still wild" Bieszczady by zaffaran
Bieszczady Travel Guide: 36 reviews and 97 photos
Bieszczady is a mountain range in south-eastern Poland.Visited by many tourists still have many places where one can walk all day long without seeing anybody. Of course- there are some musts- like climbing up some peaks to get dirty with mud on your way and finally admire the views but I also like strolling off the beaten path just to find remains of the past dated back to the times when Bieszczady were alive. Now there are a few villages (lively in high season) and they are: Wetlina, Cisna, Ustrzyki Gorne.
If you want to see some REALLY beautiful photos of the Bieszczdy mountains - check this link!

I tried to book a room today to Sanok or Ustrzyki but no room available already. :( Hope to see Bieszczady maybe during the Spring..
These daily tips are great -- they open entirely new vistas for exploration. I hope to spend more time on this page.
Terrific! :) Seems to be a perfect place to hike in Poland!
Looks like a hiker's and camper's paradise. Gorgeous scenery.
Great tips about a beautiful part of Poland/Ukraine! We went horseback riding outside of Zamosc - unfortunately my horse spoke nothing but Polish! Ended the day with many bruises - physical and pyschic :)
Great photography...sory i couldn't read the polish in the external website though

Released: Feb 01st, 2000
Running Time: 87
Director: Tom Stone
Company: Silverstone Entertainment
Distribution Companies: Odyssey Group Video
Cast: Nick Lang, Frank Gun, Mark Davis, Diego (I), April Flowers, John Walton, Leanni Lei, Sabrina (I), Angelica (I), Tara Patrick, Christine (I) (Hungarian), Chrissy (I), Jake Steed
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Tara Patrick is already making an impression, and keep your eye on April Flowers. The picture of Tara on the box cover will spur some rentals.
Six scenes this time, in the usual classy and cool PickUp Lines style. PUL regular Leanni Lei does a scene with Jake Steed that is enhanced by a little shoptalk at the end that is picked up by the microphones. The classic couple-watches-the-videos scenario is livened up by having the couple be two women, who nuzzle and cuddle on a bed until it's their turn, and then one of them retrieves a man from a handy nearby closet to complete the threesome. One of the women is newcomer April Flowers. That scene is followed by a passionate encounter between cover girl Tara Patrick and Mark Davis, in a luxurious pool-hot-tub-waterfall setting that is almost as beautiful as Patrick is all by herself.

Can I put CODI in my roth and not have to fool with the K-1 forms
UBIT - Unrelated Business Income Tax. If you hold CODI in a regular or ROTH IRA, you must pay the UBIT tax if you have more than $1000 in combined UBIT income in the tax year. So if you hold enough shares for the dividends to exceed $1000, then you must pay the tax. The Information and Instructions page, paragraph 7, explains this. Also on the back of the page, Graphic Guide, it shows where to report the kinds of income and where on the tax forms. Even a tax-exempt 'church' or other non-profit, must pay the tax, if their combined UBIT exceeds $1000. I own 500 shares of CODI, producing $720 in income, and no other partnership type stock, therefor I do not have to pay the tax. I would gladly buy more shares if it were not for the trouble, at this time, but I am considering buying more in the future, when my tax situation becomes more simplified.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
ATTN: lb4045
I didn't ask the question, but thanks for the informative answer :)

Definition of skirl in English:
A shrill, wailing sound, especially that of bagpipes: we heard a skirl of the pipes
More example sentences
- Not a car horn or police siren could be heard amid the skirl of the pipes of the annual Tartan Day celebrations.
- Instead, with the skirl of the bagpipes and a thumping bass beat, on comes Flower of Scotland and we sing along as lustily as if we are at Murrayfield.
- The melancholy skirl of the bagpipes echoing down a misty glen made my spine tingle with a strong sense of déjà-vu.
verb[no object]
(Of bagpipes) produce a shrill, wailing sound: the pipes skirled and moaned down the street (as noun skirling) the skirling of the Breton bagpipes
More example sentences
- Call the number featured and a CD-rom will wing its way to you, no doubt with bagpipes skirling and free shortbread accompanying said disk.
- Off I set with kilt swirling, pipes skirling and feather bonnet flowing in what little wind there was.
- Ponting seems to suggest that he is a lone piper skirling on a distant hill.
Late Middle English (as a verb): probably of Scandinavian origin; ultimately imitative.

Analysis of Two-Pole Compensation in Linear Audio Amplifiers
An analysis of the two-pole compensation technique used in three-stage linear audio amplifiers is presented. An expression for the loop gain of a linear amplifier incorporating two-pole compensation is derived, allowing the designer to easily select the unity loop gain frequency and zero location by choosing appropriate values for the compensation components. Also presented is a simulation method that allows the designer to observe an amplifier's closed-loop and loop gain responses in a single pass without requiring modification to the circuit's feedback path; and two separate modifications to the usual two-pole compensation approach which improve phase margin and significantly enhance negative-rail power-supply rejection ratio.

I sent a newsletter to a subscriber list of 597 subscribers 3 days ago, I throttled the sending to 70 emails every 15 minutes as my host has a limit of 350 per hour. I used php to send.
On this mail out I have an unopened rate of 99.3 percent!!!
To check what is happening I created a new list with one subscriber, me at a yahoo account. I sent the same newsletter to this list of one.
It sent but went straight to spam box in yahoo.
Do you think this might have been what happened to the 593 that were not opened or could there be a problem in sending limits?

Tonight, Rachel Maddow is re-airing the documentary Hubris – The Selling of the Iraq War. I saw the first airing and I certainly recommend it for all Dems as a refresher for those of us old enough to have lived through it, but more importantly, as a history lesson for individuals in their teens and early twenties who were too young to fully comprehend what was happening – that the neo-cons were rushing the nation into a war based on a set of lies and manipulations that ultimately killed and wounded over a hundred thousand people on both sides.
Since the first airing, the original chickenhawks (Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz) have made the rounds to say they stand behind their decision to take us to war and, in Cheney's case, that he feels good about it and would do it again. Disgusting.
One particular chickenhawk/media-whore who took to the airwaves today is Michigan redneck Ted Nugent. Like the chickenhawks from the Bush Administration, he loves military weapons and talk of killing but, when it was his turn to go to war, he made sure he did not serve. Raw Story has the story, including Nugent's description of how he dodged the draft, followed by his attempts to save face with the armed forces and veterans with a lot of false bravado:
Nugent notably boasted to High Times magazine in 1977 that he dodged fighting in the Vietnam War by defecating and vomiting on himself and his clothes and not washing, taking hard drugs and pretending to be mentally disturbed.
"I got my physical notice 30 days prior to. Well, on that day I ceased cleansing my body," he said. "No more brushing my teeth, no more washing my hair, no baths, no soap, no water. Thirty days of debris build. I stopped shavin' and I was 18, had a little scraggly beard, really looked like a hippie. I had long hair, and it started gettin' kinky, matted up. Then two weeks before, I stopped eating any food with nutritional value. I just had chips, Pepsi, beer — stuff I never touched — buttered poop, little jars of Polish sausages, and I'd drink the syrup, I was this side of death. Then a week before, I stopped going to the bathroom. I did it in my pants. poop, piss the whole shot. My pants got crusted up."
Additionally, prior to the physical interview, "I snorted some crystal methedrine. Talk about one wounded motherfucker. A guy put up four lines, and it was for all four of us, but I didn't know and I'm vacuuming that poop right up. I was a walking, talking hunk of human poop."
It was, to hear him say it, the military's loss. "But you know the funny thing about it? I'd make an incredible army man. I'd be a colonel before you knew what hit you, and I'd have the baddest bunch of motherf*ckin' killers you'd ever seen in my platoon. But I just wasn't into it. I was too busy doin' my own thing, you know?"
Btw: In the Raw Story article, Nugent says he's always avoided things that would kill him, like "fat chicks". What a douche.

One driver was cited with careless driving following a crash on Highway 24 near the Cliff Dwellings.
Police say one adult male was inside each of the two vehicles involved. The driver who was not at fault was taken to a hospital for treatment of minor injuries.
The driver of a pickup was going westbound on Highway 24 and attempted to turn left onto Washington, but failed to yield to an eastbound sedan.
Alcohol and speed are not expected to be factors.

A worthy recommendation for those seeking simplicity, visual appeal and enthusiasm.
How on earth the box cover words "cherry," "innocent" or "hymen" are supposed to relate to the performers or their actions is a stretch - although there are balloons, barrettes and soft girly colors visible throughout the release.
A series of simple but attractive settings serves as the backdrop for six enjoyable scenes of boy/girl, girl/girl and multiple partner carnality. All performers are pleasing to the eye - and viewers with a fondness for feet will be pleased to see that the primary form of footwear is the flip flop. There's also plenty of eager cum slobbering, anal play, d.p. and A2M antics, along with the sexy strip interludes.
Nicely posed but sometimes poorly lit shots of gapers, sloppy blowjobs, softcore, hardcore and tease shots, along with a nine-minute behind the scenes segment that includes introductions in stilted English, round out the DVD.

My husband had an early morning doctor's appointment so we came to the Center Inn the night before. It is "hidden" near the hospital and easy to miss. The room was good sized with nice TV, microwave and refrigerator. It was clean and comfortable and the staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast consisted of an assortment of rolls, toast, coffee, milk and orange juice. Center Inn is even connected to a part of the hospital so you don't have to go outside if you are there for that particular service.
We would stay here again.

Terrebonne's Borque no-hits Lady Patriots
Published: Friday, March 30, 2007 at 11:11 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 30, 2007 at 11:53 a.m.
HOUMA -- Terrebonne pitcher Shelby Borque got a lot of help from the Lady Tigers offense, scoring 11 runs, but she only needed one on Thursday as she no-hit Ellender Memorial in a five-inning, 11-0 victory in District 6-5A softball play.
"We played really good and I am really proud of our hitting," Terrebonne coach Bess Guerrero said.
Bourque struck out eight batters and walked two. Terrebonne (16-9-1, 8-2 district) scored runs in all five innings and, coupled with Central Lafourches loss to H.L. Bourgeois, took sole possession of first place in the district. Terrebonne jumped on the sticks early when they scored four runs in the bottom of the first. Chelsea Callahan hit a fly to centerfield that was dropped by Ashley Doucet that drove in Borque and Daisy Dehart that resulted in a double. Brooke Pellegrin came up next to bat and drove in Rachel Temple and Callahan on a single. The Lady Tigers doubled their lead in the bottom of the second. Kandice Champange (3-for-3, two RBIs) led the inning off with a solo home run over the left-field fence. Jenaye Deroche hit a sacrifice grounder that drove in Borque. Callahan and Pellegrin each picked up RBIs driving in Deroche and Dehart, respsectively.
Dehart picked up an RBI in the bottom of the third when she drove in Champange on a double.
Terrebonnes last two runs came in the bottom of the fourth when Brooke Becnel picked up an RBI on a sacrifice grounder, and Champagne picked up another RBI on a single.
"I am very disappointed in the team, we werent their mentally," Lady Patriots (5-16, 1-9) coach Julie Rodriguez said.
Kristi Fitch was the losing pitcher allowing 13 hits, striking out one, and walking four.

Delicious! I used half oil, half butter to soften the onions. I also added 1/2 tsp salt. Very yummy!
I had lots of zucchinis and a leek to use up so this was the perfect recipe for me !! It makes a good amount so half was eaten with pasta and really enjoyed and the rest is in the freezer.
Quick and easy, fresh and delicious! I used garlic, basil, oregano, and thyme for the italian seasoning. Great recipe - thanks for sharing!
Delicious sauce! And what a great, healthy way to use up excess zucchini and tomato. Thanks for sharing!
Not over the top WOW but a definite keeper - everybody enjoyed this, especially the KIDS. Made for Veggie Swap 8/09. I doubled the sauce as I had 8 to feed & cooked 2lbs of elbows but only used 1/2 because the bowl was overflowing, lol. Thanks, Liisa!!!

A Win-Win Election
By comparison, Al Gore didn't even come close in Florida.
Bye-Ku for Michele Bachmann
She of "crazy eyes"
May be crazy like a fox
News contributor
A Win-Win Election
One thing is clear after last night's Iowa Republican caucuses: The goody-two-shoes platitude that "every vote counts" is bunk even in an election as close as this one. If you're an Iowan and you failed to vote, it just means that Mitt Romney outpolled Rick Santorum by eight votes rather than seven or nine--and if you preferred someone else, your failure to show up didn't even affect the margin of victory.
Still, it was one heck of a close election. As we were tweeting about it, we also flipped through the TV channels and discovered Current TV, or, as it is commonly known, The Network Keith Olbermann Left MSNBC For. Olbermann wasn't on last night, though. Instead we saw Al Gore, the former vice president, on a panel with some Turkish dude and quinquagenarian Canadian-American ex-beauty queen Jennifer Granholm. Later it occurred to us that George W. Bush's margin in Florida in 2000, 537, was two orders of magnitude greater than Romney's in Iowa. Before all the recount shenanigans it was three orders of magnitude greater.
We suppose one way you can tell a close election is that election night (or the early hours of the next day) features an even number of victory speeches--zero in 2000, two last night, both before the final count was in but after it was clear it would be a photo finish. Santorum went first, and he seemed more triumphant than Romney, which is to be expected. Merely by emerging as a serious contender, the former Pennsylvania senator had exceeded almost everyone's expectations.
Whereas Santorum appeared confident, and spoke from the heart, Romney seemed to be trying hard to connect and to provide a rationale for his campaign--and when you seem to be trying hard, it means you're trying too hard. Of course the results last night were themselves confidence-building for Santorum, but perhaps the difference in their attitudes was a cause as well as an effect of the Iowa results.
There was plenty of drama in the speeches from the losers as well--except for Ron Paul, who finished third. As one would expect, he essentially congratulated his followers for having made their point, which was all he and they could have expected in the first place.
Rick Perry, who finished fifth, seemed resigned as he announced that he would return to Texas to assess whether there was a way forward for his candidacy. It was a sharp contrast with sixth-place Michele Bachmann, who spoke as if she still expected to face Barack Obama in November.
By today, however, the two had switched positions, with Bachmann dropping out and Perry announcing that he is still running. The Texas governor "called Iowa a 'quirky place' with 'a quirky process,' " the Associated Press reports. "He said voters in South Carolina share his values and that he feels confident he will do well there." South Carolina votes Jan. 21, which is 11 days after next week's New Hampshire primary.
Newt Gingrich appeared bitter and angry after finishing a distant fourth. "So furious was Gingrich that, in addressing supporters, he refused to mention Mitt Romney by name--he referred to him merely as 'a Massachusetts moderate'--and strongly hinted that he would arrive in New Hampshire with fangs bared and claws slashing," reports the Washington Post's Joel Achenbach. As Gingrich groused about the unnamed moderate's negative ads, we kept waiting for him to use the phrase "mindless cannibalism."
According to Achenbach, however, "this morning a mellow, uncaffeinated Gingrich showed up in an overcrowded meeting room" in Concord, N.H., where "he reserved his political attacks for President Obama." At a news conference "less than an hour later," though, Gingrich was back on the attack against Romney.
For the moment, it appears as though the two new front-runners are each in a functional alliance with one of the remaining also-rans. The longer that both Perry and Santorum are in the race, the more likely it is that Romney will still end up winning by default. In particular, by doing well in South Carolina, Perry could make it hard for Santorum to build on his near-victory in Iowa.
For Gingrich, it appears to be personal. He praised Santorum yesterday as he denounced the moderate who must not be named, and commentators speculated that the former speaker was setting himself up to be the ex-senator's hatchet man. We know from his years as House minority whip and from the 2011 Republican debates that Gingrich can be very effective in this role. But in those cases, his targets were also his party's foes--Democrats and the liberal media. It remains to be seen if he is as effective at fighting within his own party.
The Rap on Rick
At a dinner last spring, we got into a conversation about the GOP presidential field with a guy who insisted the man to watch was Rick Santorum. We responded with incredulity and then dismissiveness. Last night we emailed our interlocutor: "You might have been on to something!" Never let it be said that we don't admit when we're wrong.
Of course, with success also comes scrutiny. Republicans may be willing to take a chance on Santorum despite concerns that he is too socially conservative to be "electable." Those concerns, while not unfounded, are probably felt too keenly by conservative media figures, most of whom live in big cities surrounded by left-liberals. Besides, the threshold of a candidate's electability depends on the strength of his opponent, and there are reasons to think President Obama will be an unusually weak incumbent.
But Santorum will face criticism from the libertarian right. Here's the Cato Institute's Michael Tanner writing in National Review Online:
Santorum's voting record shows that he embraced George Bush-style "big-government conservatism." For example, he supported the Medicare prescription-drug benefit and No Child Left Behind.
He never met an earmark that he didn't like. In fact, it wasn't just earmarks for his own state that he favored, which might be forgiven as pure electoral pragmatism, but earmarks for everyone, including the notorious "Bridge to Nowhere." The quintessential Washington insider, he worked closely with Tom DeLay to set up the "K Street Project," linking lobbyists with the GOP leadership.
He voted against NAFTA and has long opposed free trade. He backed higher tariffs on everything from steel to honey. He still supports an industrial policy with the government tilting the playing field toward manufacturing industries and picking winners and losers.
In fact, Santorum might be viewed as the mirror image of Ron Paul.
That last characterization cuts partly in Santorum's favor. On foreign policy, we--and, we suspect, most Republicans and independents--would far prefer the non-Paul to Ron Paul. And while we find Paul's domestic-policy views attractive, they probably go too far for most Americans. If Santorum is the non-Paul here, that also militates against the argument that he is unelectable. It would be awfully hard for Obama to demonize him as someone who believes "we are better off when everybody is left to fend for themselves and play by their own rules."
In fact, Cato's David Boaz, in a Monday blog post, unearths a Santorum quote from 2006 that directly repudiates the Obama stereotype:
One of the criticisms I make is to what I refer to as more of a libertarianish right. . . . This whole idea of personal autonomy, well, I don't think most conservatives hold that point of view. Some do. They have this idea that people should be left alone, be able to do whatever they want to do, government should keep our taxes down and keep our regulations low, that we shouldn't get involved in the bedroom, we shouldn't get involved in cultural issues. You know, people should do whatever they want. Well, that is not how traditional conservatives view the world, and I think most conservatives understand that individuals can't go it alone. That there is no such society that I am aware of, where we've had radical individualism and that it succeeds as a culture.
This quote, however, gives us pause. We can conceive of a critique of "radical individualism" with which we'd be mostly sympathetic, but not one that rejects "this whole idea of personal autonomy." We suppose the label "libertarianish" would fit us, inasmuch as we place a high value on individual liberty. It sometimes seems as if Santorum does not. If he only means to criticize doctrinaire libertarians, he should be careful to make that clear.
Thomas Friedman's World
The Worst Writer in the English Language weighs in on the Iowa caucuses, which he deems "entertaining" but "disconnected . . . from biggest trends shaping the job market of the 21st century."
"What if the 2012 campaign were actually about the world in which we're living and how we adapt to it?" he asks. "What would the candidates be talking about?"
As part of his answer, he quotes "Blair Levin, who runs the Aspen Institute's Gig.U project, a consortium of 37 university communities working to promote private investment in next-generation ecosystems":
Historians have noted that economic clusters always required access to abundant strategic inputs for success, says Levin. In the 1800s, it was access to abundant flowing water and raw materials. In the 1900s, it was access to abundant electricity and transportation. In the 2000s, he said, "it will be access to abundant bandwidth and abundant human intellectual capital,"--places like Silicon Valley, Austin, Boulder, Cambridge and Ann Arbor.
So wait a minute: "The world in which we're living" is typified by those five communities. What are their politics? Here are the relevant 2008 results, from David Leip's Atlas of U.S. Presidential Elections:
Silicon Valley (Santa Clara County, Calif.). Barack Obama 69.4%, John McCain 28.6%
Austin (Travis County, Texas). Obama 63.5%, McCain 34.3%
Boulder (Boulder County, Colo.). Obama 72.3%, McCain 26.1%
Cambridge (Middlesex County, Mass.). Obama 64%, McCain 33.9%
Ann Arbor (Washtenaw County, Mich.). Obama 69.6%, McCain 28.8%.
By comparison, Obama carried Iowa by 53.9% to 44.4% and outpolled McCain nationwide by 52.9% to 45.6%. So when Friedman complains that the campaign of Republicans in Iowa is not suited to "the world in which we're living," he's really complaining that the entire world isn't as liberal as Ann Arbor.
Homer Nods
Yesterday's column prompted the following email from Jounice Nealy-Brown, communications director of the Tampa Bay Times:
You included PolitiFact in an article published recently on Best of the Web written by James Taranto. In it he refers to PolitiFact, as a product of the St. Petersburg Times.
However, we wanted you to know that we are now the Tampa Bay Times.
On Jan. 1, 2012, we changed our name from the St. Petersburg Times to the Tampa Bay Times. The new name better reflects the region we serve. And PolitiFact remains our Pulitzer Prize-winning fact-checking Web site.
For more information, go to http://tampabay.com/newname.
We're always happy to correct an error. And of course a Pulitzer Prize is nothing to sneeze at, except when it is.

Why Do You Think They Call It a 'Boy'-cott?
"Transgender advocates claim a new tampon advertisement takes the cringe factor surrounding women's sanitary products to new lows by stereotyping its community members," reports the New Zealand Herald. The ad, for Libra tampons, features two women--or so it appears at first:
Both women sneak glances at each other while they get competitive about putting on their mascara in a mirror, lipgloss and adjusting their bras.
In an apparent coup de grace the blonde pulls out a tampon and the drag queen walks out of the bathroom.
Agender NZ president Cherise Witehira, said many in the transgender community were outraged at the ads which were "blatantly transphobic".
"It's extremely offensive because it's pretty much saying the only way you can be a woman is to get your period.
The Herald reports that "many vented on the company's Libra Facebook page yesterday, saying they were boycotting the product." So what brand of tampon are they going to use instead, Notex or Shampax?

'Hoverboard' is a self-balancing one-wheel skateboard
A new skateboard-like vehicle has been introduced, this one simply called "Hoverboard". Before you get too excited, know this — it, like other "hoverboards", doesn't levitate. It does, however, move a bit like we imagine a hoverboard would move, something facilitated via a single wheel placed centrally under the board. The futuristic slant is complemented with a colored light around the edge of the board.

Sandler and friends reunite for lazy, unfunny sequel
Despite being lambasted by critics, 2010's "Grown Ups" was an enormous hit, grossing $162 million domestically and another $109 million worldwide. It stands to reason that "Grown Ups 2" will do just as well — even though it's made for home viewing when you're flipping channels late at night and nothing else is on.
Once again, producer/co-writer/star Adam Sandler decided to gather all his friends and hang out for a few months — and get a major studio to pay for their get-together. Sometimes you wonder if they even knew (or cared) that cameras were rolling. »Read Full Article(4)

10 Superheroes Jason Bourne Could Escape From
Film, Comic Books
Stumptown #1 – 4. Greg Rucka (writer). Matthew Southworth (art). Lee Loughridge, Rico Renzi, and Matthew Southworth (colors). Oni. Full Color. $3.99.
Let's just get it out of the way – yes. Yes, it was great – one of the best comics I've read in months. But I had to go back and read the first three over again to remember what happened 17 weeks ago in issue #3. Are all fans – even those that loved the story thus far – devoted enough to wait, to dig out books for re-reads, and perhaps as I had to do – hunt down new issues with such an irregular shipping schedule?
Comics are sometimes hard work – it's not like figuring out what movie you want to go see – which essentially entails having previews and trailers and posters thrust at you everywhere you might possibly go. The hardest part about figuring out what movie to see is maybe looking online to find a showtime. With comics, especially comics like Stumptown, you have to be diligent. I go to small shop that's great, but they don't always get everything, and sometimes things get missed and I have to track them down. When there's a four-month gap between books, that's when a book tends to get missed, even if it's on my pull. And because of that I have had to be unwavering in my attention to "when will Stumptown #4 come out" and I had to do this for #3 before it. But if I wasn't writing this column would I be so careful? Are other people going to be so careful? I just don't know.
The fact that Stumptown #1 was my first piece for She Has No Head! and yet 43 weeks later we're only on issue #4 seems like cause for concern about Stumptown's future.
And I'm not trying to take Matthew Southworth to task here – I feel for him – and relate more than I can reasonably get into here about his "testimonial" in the back of issue #4 about getting this issue into our hands. But feeling for him doesn't keep me from worrying about the book. And my worry about the book is mostly selfish. It's exceptionally difficult for me to discover a comic book I like as much as Stumptown – and even more difficult to discover a comic book that I like this much that also has a great female lead – so I just don't want to lose that – but as Greg said last week, it's hard to imagine the title made a dime (though the first issue did get a second printing – which is encouraging).
So in the interest of selfishly getting Stumptown as much publicity as possible – and keeping it on the shelves – let's talk about what's great about it.
I think the most important thing to discuss when talking about Stumptown is simply to talk about what a wonderful thing Rucka has done in giving us another exceptional female comic book character in Dex. I know some have complained that Dex is just like all his other "tough female heroines" – I don't happen to agree – but even if I did – is there anything so wrong with that? It's not like the market is over saturated with great female characters – does it really hurt us to have another – even if she does hit some of the same notes?
That said, I don't really agree that she's the same. I think Dex is plenty different than other "Rucka tough females" that came before her. Dex is clumsy and unlucky where Tara Chace is precise and almost charmed; Dex is flirty and bold where Carrie Stetko is private and reserved; Dex is practical and understated where Kate Kane is fearless and theatrical. In fact, I'd say the only trait that all of the "Rucka women" absolutely share is their believability. And part of that is I think a respect for women and for getting them right, which comes across on the page; and part of that is a respect for writing and getting context right – i.e. there is a context in which it is perfectly acceptable and even likely that all of these women might dress suggestively – but it's not a way in which they behave every day, because it is not who they are, it does not reflect their character and would be disingenuous to suggest so.
I think what especially works for me about Dex is that she's the time honored classic noir P.I. – very near the bottom of the barrel, broke, unlucky, and with some unsavory bad habits, but nevertheless honorable. She's also clever, determined, and constantly being underestimated. She's not chatty, unless she's being chatty on purpose and she uses the fact that she's constantly underestimated to her advantage – as any clever person would, and as a proud and arrogant person never would. She never looks like she's even thinking one step ahead, let alone two, but most of the time she is. Except for when she screws up – which she does from time to time – because she's not a perfect untouchable (unrealistic) type but just painfully human. It makes her wonderfully relatable. She should have the imperviousness of a character starring in her own (new) book, but in Rucka's deft hands you're never quite sure if she's going to make it out alive. She comes across as painfully unlucky, but considering the situations she's frequently in, she's either the luckiest sonofabitch around or even more clever than we realize. I suspect the latter.
For the uninitiated, Stumptown follows Portland (Oregon, not Maine) P.I. Dexedrine Callisto Parios (aka Dex) as she solves cases, cares for her younger brother, flirts with doctors, and gambles herself into oblivion. This first arc, titled The Case Of The Girl Who Took Her Shampoo But Left Her Mini, follows Dex as she tries to find the granddaughter of a casino owner – her payment will be removal of her debts (some nearly 18,000 dollars). Along the way Dex encounters two different sets of thugs (one set a little more polished than the other), a pair of scheming siblings, the seventh wealthiest man in Oregon, and a whole lot of other trouble.
[Mild Spoilers]
Rucka's story has all the necessary twists and turns for a detective noir tale, though some (like the expertly handled first issue which worked backwards) are more effective than others. Though overall I loved the issues individually and as an arc, I do feel that Rucka made one fairly significant mistake at the end of issue #3 and for a few page in issue #4, in that he allowed us readers, suddenly, with no other precedent, access to scenes that Dex was not privy to. It undermined the mystery, and our ability to stay with Dex as we puzzled things out. The book works best when we only know what Dex knows – when we have to hope we're as smart as Dex (we never are – or at least, I'm not) rather than getting critical chunks of information that Dex will never receive. By far the weakest section of issue #4 (and of the entire series) are the four pages in which readers alone see Mr. Marenco having an argument with his children Isabel and Oscar – because Dex is absent it comes across as naked exposition and it doesn't work the way the rest of the books do. Rucka is certainly a strong enough writer to have found a way around this and it would have strengthened this last chapter tremendously if he had. Regardless, it's still an exceptional comic – and well above most of the stories it's competing against – so with Rucka out of the mainstream game, I hope we'll see much more of Stumptown. And though I still worry for mainstream comics when a talent like Rucka doesn't want in – getting a taste of Stumptown reminds me how enjoyable his departure can be for me in other ways.
Excerpt from Stumptown #4:
Matthew Southworth's art, though a little loose and gritty for some tastes, to me is an excellent fit for Stumptown. He well captures the mood, the characters, and the location – all quite key in setting the stage for a strong detective tale. I was sorry to read his palpable frustration in his "artist's note" in the back of issue #4 and I feel for him as I said before, I really do, but at the end of the day, I just don't know the ultimate fate of the book if he can't speed up. Is Rucka's name (and obvious passion for the project) enough to keep it going when more than four months drop between issues? Or when we have to wait 6 months to a year (I'm just guessing here) for the next arc (i.e. issue #5)?
I just don't know. I have a real passion for books that can keep the same creative team on – allowing them to create an exceptional and cohesive vision for a book long term – but here I find myself wondering if, in order to get more Stumptown, and to build a bigger following (which it totally deserves) if it might be worth considering alternating artist for different arcs. So that while Rucka and Southworth are finishing up an arc we're reading, Rucka and artist #2 can be producing the next arc, and vice versa. Alternatively, maybe Stumptown should be released as a series of graphic novels instead?
This is all just me being greedy by the way. Me looking at my pile of comics and saying "This shit is better than almost anything else I'm reading…how can I get more of it?"
Of course it's not lost on me that it's better in part BECAUSE it takes longer. But I know how cut throat this industry is about book survival (less so at smaller presses of course) but I don't know the viability of a four month drag time between books.
Anyway, back to what Southworth actually did here. The art is consistently gritty and to good effect, and has an excellent sense of place – you feel without doubt where you are – where Dex is – at all times. In issue #4 Southworth's art feels much the same as the first three issues – except in the climactic "final" scene in which he takes a gamble that totally pays off. Drawing and coloring a dark outdoor night scene (with Rico Renzi) with only pops of bright yellow to reflect the beam of a flashlight. It's incredibly effective and moody, not to mention cool. It truly heightens the tension in that scene to almost horror-story like proportions. So hats off to both Southworth and Renzi for an execution that really adds to an already impressive climax, and a powerful ending to this first arc.
Lee Loughridge did colors for the first two issues and Rico Renzi did colors for the last two (with an assist from Southworth on #4). Beyond saying that it's excellent moody work with a perfectly chosen palette I'd say that they did a particularly exceptional job in making the switch between artists almost unseen. I'm not sure I would have noticed the differences without noticing the name changes on the cover – and that does wonders for the cohesiveness of the book overall.
All in all it's an all-star team creating one of the most exceptional comics I've had the pleasure of reading in recent years.
I just hope they can get the schedule under control so that I don't have to say goodbye to yet another great book killed before its time. It's happened too frequently and I don't want to see it happen here.
Stumptown #4 released on September 1st, 2010 and is available in comic book stores everywhere. If you missed out on previous issues and cannot find them in stores you can easily buy them directly from Oni Press here. Hopefully Stumptown will also be released in trade – but if you like great comics (with badass female leads) and you've got a few extra bucks, I'd suggest picking up the original issues from Oni. Only $16 for 125 pages of comics excellence.
[…] comics, comics news, comics should be good, oni press, she has no head!, stumptown A new SHE HAS NO HEAD! is up – a review and discussion of Stumptown #1 – 4. Check it […]
You called Southworth "Southridge" when you mentioned he colored part of issue #4. Lee Loughridge was on the brain, apparently.
As for missing an issue … you mention that it's on your pull list, but I would be more aggressive than that. I've had stuff on my pull list that gets missed, too, and it's annoying. If you fill out a pre-order list every month, the retailer actually has to (well, should) order off of that list instead of customers' pull lists. I've said it before, but if your retailer is willing to give you Previews for free, you can write down every month that you want books, and it might work better (if you have the time, that is). Especially on a late, LATE book like Stumptown. If it's on your pull list, the retailer might have forgotten about it. If it's on a monthly pre-order list, he (or she, I suppose) has to specifically order each issue.
Plus, there are ways to know if the book is coming out. Diamond posts their shipping lists for the coming week every Monday. It's not 100% accurate, but it's close. Brian Hibbs does the same at Savage Critics, and although it's only for his shop, his shop is all hoity-toity so he orders a ton of stuff. In fact, your retailer probably gets his list on Sunday or Monday, so he knows what's coming out that week (if you're able to go to the shop more than once a week). If you look at those lists, you don't have to ASK when Stumptown is coming out, you can go in and say, "According to Diamond, Stumptown SHOULD be out this week!" Take that, retailer!!!!!
Sorry for the rant. I know how frustrating it is trying to find tiny press comics, and when you miss one, it's maddening. You may know all this stuff, too, in which case … um, just never mind.
Good review, by the way. Let the angry comments about how all you want from your comics is man-hating women begin!!!!!
I kind of agree with you, not about Stumptown (haven't read the series), but rather the delays between issues.
This kind of thing is far too common among publishers for my taste.
If the series is a limited series (4-6 issues), the publisher in question should wait until all or most of the issues is complete before releasing it (or announcing the schedule).
If the series is on-going, then the schedule should be altered to accomodate the artist's page rate (montly, 6-week, bi-monthly) and even take break between story arcs (in case of illness). Sometimes, change artists when doing new story arcs.
In a perfect world …
Unfortunately, every publishers is in slavery to monetary demands (not to mention public) and therefore shortcuts are taken.
Every now and then, a really good series like Daytripper has made all of its deadlines without much trouble.
Joe the Barbarian # 7 and 8 is tardy, though the first six issues were monthly.
Every series is different, as it's publisher.
Stumptown is most notable as Oni Press doesn't have a whole lot of series coming out every month, compared to Marvel, DC, Image, where each have 30-50 titles per month.
With that many issues coming out, singling out an extremely late issue is like finding an needle in the haystack, unless you're specifically collecting that issue.
My two worthless cents there.
Personally, I'm hoping we get more Stumptown and the like from Rucka now that he's backed away from Big Two work. I've enjoyed this (and Queen and Country, which was fantastic) more than just about anything he's done for DC. It's great that he can make the decision to focus on his own work–really, I wish a lot of other creators could do the same.
Ugh. If there's anything I would run from in a heartbeat after reading Rucka's work with Montoya and Sasha Bordeaux is any Rucka work dealing with a strong, tough-as-nails female protaganist.
She's right! I look forward to Dex's next Portland mystery. I didn't have to re-read the old issues to get this one, but now I want to. Unfortunately, I am out of town, and can't get to the old issues at the moment.
Great review Kelly. It's a testament to how good the series is that I was so aggressive in making sure I knew when the next issue was coming out (luckily Rucka was quite responsive on Twitter to my requests). And I was very happy when I picked up my pull this week and low and behold my LCS actually had it for me. While I plan to sit down and read the whole series again, I was able to immediately jump and savor, yes, savor this climatic issue. I agree with your take on Dex, while she has the aura of the "Rucka female", she is different than any other female character he has written. While I would love to have this on a monthly or ever other month schedule, I will patiently wait for the next issue and continue to rec the first four issues to anyone who will listen.
"Let the angry comments about how all you want from your comics is man-hating women begin!!!!!"
Not angry, just contemptuous of someone who so openly wants to be pandered to.
Seems almost all comics' fans evidence a desire to be pandered to (e.g. posing on blogs, message boards, and going to conventions/panels).
I hope Joe above is a fan of mainstream super-hero comics. If so, the irony is amazing.
Stumptown looks amazing artistically, and I look forward to reading it.
It's a Catch-22, I know, but I tend to get things only after they're collected these days. I get the complete story, I don't have to put up with advertisements intruding every few pages, and I don't have to worry about long delays between issues.
Mainstream publishers have learned (though they don't always do it) that they should have most if not all of a mini or special arc on hand before they release the first issue. Independent publishers and/or creators can't afford to do that. Either the publisher would have to pay for everything up front before seeing a dime towards their ROI, or the creators would have to labor long months to complete a project before the publisher would be able to pay them for the first installment, which isn't feasible for either side.
And so the audience experiences delays.
Further complicating the issue are people like me, who rarely buy the serialized portions, opting to wait for the collections… so the publisher has to guess what the potential sales are down the road if the periodical sales don't seem sufficient to continue the series. (But at least this is an option; when a series lives or dies based solely on the sales of the serialized issues, an irregular release schedule is pretty much a guarantee of cancellation, possibly before the story can be concluded.)

" Possibility at this point i would say highly unlikely but still a asmall chance. "Im pretty sure they said its a PS3 exclusive.
He's also responsible for making the most profitable franchise in the past decade for Square Enix. So yeah, he can do whatever he wants.
Got this from Wikipedia, don't take it seriously though. It's Wikipedia after all
When asked by a Square Enix investor at a shareholders meeting about a possible Xbox 360 port, president Yoichi Wada stated "We'll be looking into it internally until right before the formal announcement." After some backlash, he later clarified his original statement by saying on Twitter "It looks like the [inter]net is heating up. Versus on Xbox? What I said at the earnings press conference was just that until a formal announcement is made at the announcement time; all points about all titles are not finalized."In regards to the announcement of Final Fantasy XIII Ultimate Hits International for the Xbox 360, Nomura was asked by fans on Twitter regarding the fate of Final Fantasy Versus XIII's exclusivity and his response was "Multiplatform is when you start development on a game with the assumption of optimizing for multiple platforms. Porting is something that's done after you've developed a game specifically for a particular platforms[sic]. The debate over porting is decided by the management based on the current market and the costs. All I can say right now as a developer is that Versus is being developed specifically for the PlayStation 3."

" More importantly will Versus have a story which isn't shit. "Nomura's directing it. Of course the story will be shit.
Isn't Square-Enix not doing well financially? Would be kinda ballsy of them to release an exclusive game in their current condition.@Terry_Bogard Hey smartass, Nomura said he's toning it down for this and it's a story based on reality. So have faith.
It's a Nomura game, it's going to sell millions. The KH fans have been wanting this since KH2...and FF fans have wanted this more than ff13.
Nomura's name alone will sell millions.
They been working on this fucking thing for six years, imagine all the money they spent on this game already. They must have done every shortcut possible to keep the production price down, so having to add in the extra man power to port over to the 360 would more than likely be added in, but you never know.
Probably going to be a port depending on how much potential sales they might get if also putting it out to the 360. Hard to tell right now but the last few have been coming out to the 360 & probably isn't that much time spent changing a few things to get this to work on that console.

I'm not sure the Xbox 360 will still be around when the game comes out.

Well, according to this, Versus XIII went into full production just late last year; so it probably didn't cost them too much from when it was first announce at E3 2006 and now.
I'm interested in knowing if this will see a 360 release, but more interested in the chance of this becoming a PS4/Xbox720 title.
To be honest, I'm getting the feeling that the reason this game is so elusive is because they are mulling the possibility of a 360 release. Square can't afford exclusives right now - and when the game has been in production this long you know they're gonna want this game to sell as much as possible, even if that means developing it for more than one system.

Rated 5 out of 5 by vespalib from supercute and stylish i absolutely LOVE these boots! i never wear heels but was really drawn to this style--it's slightly mod and entirely sophisticated. the burgundy color was a gamble for me since all my shoes are black, but it really worked out. they are so great that i had to buy them in black too. i especially love the "air bubble" at the ball of the foot. i added a gel heel pad and feel like i could wear these all day.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Petunia from FEMININE BOOT The plus and minus are the same for this boot: the feminine look is perfect for dress slacks but a bit dressy with jeans. I am sure I will get over any minor reservations, however, because they are comfortable and versatile. The burgundy color works with gray, black, dark brown, or navy.. Rockport cuts several uncomfortable (for me) shoes along the seam line used for these boots; but the boots, although the same size, are roomy enough to avoid this problem entirely.

Rated 5 out of 5 by ShoesGalore11 from Comfort and Style Bootie I bought this Mary Cap bootie last year in black from another vendor of Rockport shoes. These boots are super comfortable, true to size (10M), and the style compliments any skirt or pant outfit you wear with them. These boots are so fantastic I purchased them from Rockport in Merlot color this year, well worth the price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by CKinNJ from Great basic black boot I wasn't sure how I felt about the style of the boot as I looked at the pictures online. When I walked into the Rockport store & checked out the boot - the style looks much better than I had expected. Very nice heel height & can be worn with dress pants for work or jeans on the weekend. I would recommend this boot.

Has anyone seen this show on TLC? How do you feel about it?
I'll admit, when I first heard the premise of the show on CNN, I totally made a snap judgement (For those who haven't seen it, it's a show that follows a family with one husband with four wives, and like 17 kids or something. They live as a communal family). I immediately got a mental image of denim jumpers and braided hair to the floor with like 50 kids running around with bibles or something. Fucked up, I know, I know. Anyways, I've been watching some of the episodes and am actually really surprised with how much I've learned about a polygamist lifestyle. I was honestly surprised to see this enormous family doing normal stuff, having normal conversations, and laughing and just being.. a family? If that makes sense. They have cell phones, drive cars, live in nice houses... Personally, I think the show is really helping lift the stigma and remove the stereo type that a lot of people have towards that life style, it's really been an educational experience for me.
What do you guys think? too weird? What are the immediate stereotypes or images you have when you think of polygamy? What about the kids, do you think it will be hard for them when they go to college and are a tiny minority as far as "normal" families?
