BEST BETS: "Jessica Jones," "Big Trouble/Escape from New York" & More October 2016 Highlights
Comic Books
Welcome to "Report Card," our new week-in-review feature. If "Cheat Sheet" is your guide to the week ahead, "Report Card" is a look back at the top news stories of the previous week, as well as a look at the Robot 6 team's favorite comics that we read.
So read on to find out what we thought of Hawkeye #11, the second issues of Green Team and The Wake, SpongeBob Comics Annual #1: Super-Giant Swimtacular and much more.
Artist Mike Del Mundo has been turning heads with his covers to Marvel's schizophrenic X-Men: Legacy, but we're learning there's more to Del Mundo than his mental (in a good way) work. I have no other way to say this, so I'll borrow a line from a famous movie: Mike Del Mundo has a Hulk.
The above illustration is Del Mundo's contribution to Marvel's "Time Travel" series of variant covers, this one appearing on the upcoming Indestructible Hulk #12. But as I explored Del Mundo's DeviantArt gallery, I found the artist has more than just a casual interest in the Green Goliath, especially putting him in situations outside of what you'd normally think.
Witness the Incredible Hulk … at a spin class:
Hello and welcome to What Are You Reading?, our look at what comics and other things we've been perusing lately. Today our special guests are Caleb Goellner, Buster Moody and Ryan Hill, the creative team of Task Force Rad Squad, the hot new comic find of 2013. Especially if you were ever a Power Rangers fan. Or even if you weren't, as Moody and Hill's art is just kind of wonderful on its own. Our old friend and former colleague Graeme says it "pretty much does for Power Rangers what Jeffrey Brown's Incredible Change-Bots does for Transformers," and that's a very apt description. You can download it yourself here, and pay whatever you think is fair.

If I had $15, I'd start with Black Beetle #1 (Dark Horse, $3.99), Francesco Francavilla's pulp action hero who jumps into his own miniseries after a run in Dark Horse Presents. I'd also grab Threshold #1 (DC Comics, $2.99), which continues the story from last week's New Guardians annual, featuring a new Green Lantern and a whole bunch of cosmic DC characters. I'd also grab Comeback #3 (Image, $3.50), as I just got around to reading the first issue and really enjoyed it. They're doing some fun stuff with time travel that should make for a cool series. That leaves room for one more, which is a hard choice … but let's go with Indestructible Hulk #3 (Marvel, $3.99), because I love the new direction and take on the character and his status quo.
If I had $30, I'd also pick up Saga #9 (Image, $2.99) and Daredevil #22 ($2.99), because, well, Saga and Daredevil. I'm also really digging what Kelly Sue Deconnick is doing with the Avengers, so next I'd get Avengers Assemble #11 (Marvel, $3.99). Lastly, I'd grab Captain America #3 (Marvel, $3.99), as I'm really worried about Cap and the kid, and hope they come out of Zola's world OK.
Finally, for my spulrge, I'd go with the big Paul Pope book from Image, One Trick Rip-Off ($29.99).

To see what Gardner, Dave and the Robot 6 crew have been reading, click below …
"The great thing about the Hulk is that, as we saw in the Avengers movie, I don't care if you're 300 yards away when he changes. You pee your pants because you know your life is likely over, whether you're his friend or his enemy. It's like being in the middle of a lightning storm — you just don't know. And I never want to lose sight of that sense of danger to the book."
– Mark Waid, discussing the Green Goliath as a force of nature, and a weapon of mass destruction, in Marvel's Indestructible Hulk, which debuts today

If I had $15, my Wednesday haul would start with Glory #30 (Image, $3.99). This series has been great, and since Kris Anka began doing covers, it's gone to very great. Now, seeing New Yorker cartoonist Roman Muradov coming in to do a story makes it potentially even more, well, great. I'm psyched to see Glory face off against her sister, and Campbell's depiction of both has been mesmerizing. Next I'd pick up Comeback #1 (Image, $3.50), featuring letterer Ed Brisson making his major writing debut. The cover design by Michael Walsh is impeccable, and the concept of time traveling for grieving loved ones is a fascinating concept. Next up, I'd get a Marvel double – Wolverine and the X-Men #21 (Marvel, $3.99) and Hawkeye #4 (Marvel, $2.99). This carnie issue of Wolverine and the X-Men is intriguing; it's going out on a limb, but after what Jason Aaron and Nick Bradshaw have done so far, I trust them. With Hawkeye, I'm slightly hesitant to pick up an issue knowing David Aja isn't drawing it, but Javier Pulido has the potential to be an ideal temporary substitute.
If I had $30, I'd look back on my $15 and reluctantly put Hawkeye #4 back on the shelf to free up money for Derek Kirk Kim's Tune, Book 1: Vanishing Point (First Second, $16.99). Man oh man, do I love Kim's work, and seeing the previews for this online makes me see a honing of the artist's style akin to the way Bryan O'Malley did between Lost At Sea and Scott Pilgrim. Count me in.
If I could splurge, I'd take a chance on the anthology Digestate (Birdcage Bottom Books, $19.95). I'm no foodie like C.B. Cebulski, but I like food and I like anthologies so this is right up my alley; especially when the chefs include Jeffrey Brown and Liz Prince. Where's my order?
When you make your formal American comics debut drawing a Top 5 book, you've really set the bar high for the rest of your career. But Filipino artist Leinil Yu doesn't think about it too much.
Yu's introduction to the U.S. comics market was in 1997 with Wolverine #113, but he wasn' t a complete newcomer: He had worked for a time as an assistant at Whilce Portacio's studio, and even gained some recognition by winning a Wizard magazine contest. Yu went on from Wolverine to draw everything from Uncanny X-Men to Buffy the Vampire Slayer and even had a hand in reinventing Superman's origins in Superman: Birthright before returning to Marvel and becoming one of the publisher's top-tier artists with New Avengers and Secret Invasion. After that, he moved into creator-owned comics with Mark Millar, first on Superior and then on Supercrooks. Yu continues to excel with Marvel's superheroes, joining Mark Waid to relaunch the Hulk in the Marvel NOW! title Indestructible Hulk — a return of sorts for Yu, who drew the Hulk in the well-received (albeit much-delayed) Ultimate Wolverine vs. Hulk.
I've always been an admirer of Yu's work, from his brief stint on Chris Claremont's X-Men return to his lesser-known creator-owned book at DC, Silent Dragon (with Andy Diggle) and High Roads (with Scott Lobdell). When he returned to Marvel, I noticed him experimenting with his style in both composition and rendering. Upon doing research for this interview, I learned about Yu's varied attempts to explore different mediums — branching out from his pencils and pens and to painting, digital modelling, and even digital speed-painting. I conducted this interview with Leinil Yu earlier this month, on the eve of Indestructible Hulk's announcement.

Cows and South Koreans: Mad as Hell!
Let's say that you're South Korean. Let's also say that you're vegetarian. Now, what do you do if you basically sympathize with the sentiments of the tens of thousands of South Koreans who have taken to the streets in recent months to protest the importation of American beef, but you know that concerns over mad cow don't quite capture the whole story? Well, if your name is Kyung-Dam Park, you slip into a fuzzy cow costume, stand outside the South Korean embassy in Manila, and hold a sign that reads, "It's Mad to Eat Meat. Go Vegetarian."
This is what Kyung-Dam Park had to say: "With all the disease directly linked to eating animals, you really have to be mad to eat any meat these days. Going vegetarian is the best thing you can do for your health and animals."
Park's point? While South Koreans' fears about mad cow (the disease that ravages the brain and turns it into Swiss cheese) are well founded, there are lots of other reasons for South Koreans (and everyone else) to keep all meat (from the U.S. or anywhere else) off their plates.

Not to get off the subject…yeah okay I am and I'm DARN good at it…but WASSUP WITH THAT? I've had to go to the doctor recently for an infected cut allergies and and an eye infection. First question that was asked? "You have any cats?" "Why yes I do! And you'll take my eye out before I get rid of him!" Poor guy. For once he didn't do anything and gets blamed for it… Anyways…back on subject… Correct me if I'm wrong but weren't WE told not to eat Canadian meat for the same reason? Fear spreads faster than anything.
Chris Okay I understand what you're saying and I agree with most of it. However I have a few nitpicky but nonetheless important points 1. I agree that PETA's protests can be misleading. 2. CJD is rare but so is rabies and at least in the United States we've gone fucking hogwild trying to prevent it. From my vague understanding of CJD it is absolutely horrid to suffer through so why not point it out? Again I agree it should not be done in a misleading manner. 3. Most importantly though even if it's not intended your statements villify cats. Although it is for comparison purpouses I beg you to please take the stance that being around cats is safer than being near the stairs in your own home and that the elderly and immunocompromised simply need to avoid getting bitten. I say this as someone who had to take 800 plus healthy friendly cats in a back room of a shelter and poison them because some doctors told pregnant women to "get rid" of their cats.
Maya You miss the point. This article is misleading in that it leads us to believe that if you are Korean and you eat American beef you will be playing the prion lottery and likely lose. BSECJD is an extremely obscure disease. I have nothing against cats per se but I wanted to point out that you are more likely to contract a fatal disease from a cat than you are to contract CJD from eating beef. For the record the diseases you mention are rare but 90 percent of cat bites are infected with Pasturella multocida a fairly fastidious microbe that presents as a cellulitis. If misdiagnosed it is fatal in the young or the elderly as the standard cellulitis antibiotics are ineffective. I have taken care of a hundred or so infected cat bites no CJD. In fact in the records of our hospital only one case of spongiform encephalopathy has ever been seen that we know of but the disease is pretty easy to pick up on brain imaging. My point to summarize was to point out the obscurity referenced in the protest. Why be misleading? Be honest. "I don't want you to eat beef because I think killing and torturing cows is wrong." What's wrong with that message?
Chris I have to wonder what's this with such vitrol against cats? It's at least the second time you've accused cats of sickening people to death. If you want to get all techincal diseases that little kids carry around flu chicken pox e coli etc have probably been passed to and killed more people than cats ever have. Cats don't carry airborne zoonotic diseases. People who get sick from cats most likely were bitten by strays who they had no business handling in the first place. I doubt thousands of people die from cat bites from their own indoor cats. Toxoplasmosis is greatly overrated most well cared for indoor cats don't have it although they get blamed for baby deaths all the time. So blame people for spreading illness we are the greatest offendors. And as far as mad cow disease it's still up in the air if some Alzthimers cases are actually mad cow. However read this blog and I think you'll begin to see the light Chris. httpwww.offalgood.comsiteblogresourcesthisischeapmeat
Sorry for being boring Judith! If I knew where you lived I would take you out for a glass of wine and I would have a Sam Adams!
Madison you are amazing! Kurt You are boring!!!!! Peace for all animals!
Judith that was a funny comment you made! "We are not hurting you we don't bother you"? Are you serious? How many protest has PETA done how many times have businesses and sporting events been interupted by protests. The reason we "bad" people come on this website is because we want to stop this crap before it gets out of hand! You told us to respect your ethics well I ask you to do the same to me and for all omnivours. Now you have brought in my parents! You have accused them of doing a piss poor job of raising me. That is very nice of you! My parents taught me more about being polite caring and having common sense than any book could. If you want us to stay away stop making offthewall comments about people you don't know!
People should be truely concerned with mad cow disease. I read a story not too long ago about a wife and mother of 2 who had mad cow disease. Who knows when she was affected with the disease. They say it can many many years before it actually shows up. She started forgetting simple things her name how to write and eventually lost it she had one mental break down after another. She was placed in the hospital and had many tests done on her until last but not least a spinal tap was done and it was mad cow disease. It has about a 100 fatality rate and yes she did die. It is wise for people to know the effects of eating meat or rather the potential effects. BUT we can not save people from themselves. We can inform them but they have to make the decision for themselves.
Wheee Right well For all those Who couldnt be screwed to Save animals lives…. well Happy heart attack. Oh and have a look at my awesome play DAD How would you like some beef? ME Hardy Har Har Dad I'm Veg.. Remember? Dad Sure sure But this isn't Actually Beef it's a vegtable Me Dad here two things one I'd prefer to stay away from Mad Cow Disease Two I hate getting sick so I prefer to stay away from hospital and meat. Dad Your 12! Me And Plan to live a long healthy life CRUELTY FREE! Oh And Good Goin' Ana Judith and Lizzey Stand up for what you believe in and Don't let Anyone prove you wrong oh and Cochran Get your facts right first BEFORE you start pointing fingers. Spread DA luv 4 all
I know I really made a name for myself on this site when I get mentioned in the same breath as Cochran! I'm honored. I haven't even commented on the blog yet so now I guess I have to. Judith you are the one that sounds like the druken nasty nasty person. You have called me names so many times and I have yet to return the favor! I will still refrain. I hope it makes you feel better though! Peace be with. Now I have to clean my guns drink my Jack Daniels and go clean my 4×4 truck so I can pile is full of dead animals that I kill for the hell of it! I was just kidding about that last part. I don't kill animals for the hell of it and I really drive a Nisan Maxima. But I do own a gun and I like a Jack and coke from time to time!
I don't get it.What makes you tick? You are nothing but a group of bully's. You are pathetic and very sad. You guys come here to PETA and you come here with thoughts of terrorizing the people that love and protect animals. What part of that do you not understand? Most of us are VegetariansVegans that's our choice our ethics. Go to a hunting board or a board that talks about torturing animals that's where you belong. But go away and leave us alone we don't need you to come here and bully us. Your parents must have done a real job on you people. How sad that you have to come here and take it out on us. We are not hurting you we don't bother you just go away and leave us to our board. Time for you to grow up and respect other people's ethics. Please go away. Love and Peace! Peace for all animals!
Christopher I wouldn't call CJD an obscure disease whether sporadic genetic iatrogenic or caused by a TSE. 400 cases of CJD have occurred worldwide solely through things like transplants or neurosurgical instruments that were used on CJD patients and then sterilized conventionally but still remained infective. "A study from Yale University showed that approximately 5 of Alzheimer's Disease patients were incorrectly diagnosed. The patients actually had Creutzfeldt Jakob Disease CJD. One variant of CJD is caused by eating the beef from mad cows." The incidences of CJD could be vastly underreported or misdiagnosed as AD. Also CJD is not a reportable disease in the U.S. The U.S. tested only 19000 cattle in 2002 for BSE. Trust the USDA? No damn way.
Hello Judith Thanks for the compliment and support and for always speaking up for the other animals!!! Peace and joy!!!!
Wow I didn't know you guys hated Cochran so much. I don't really see what he's saying that's so bad. Maybe I'm not seeing something.
Judith do you kiss your momma with that mouth? Who taught you your style? Jesse Jackson? Would anyone like to comment on the original topic of why PETA uses a less powerful and obscure reference rather than the message they realy intend?i.e. please don't kill cows because we think it is cruel and harmful a very reasonable argument vs. don't import cows because there is a billionth of a chance you might get an obscure brain disease totally obscure and misleading. I can live with being a "drunken broken sad piece of nasty nasty stinking putrid shit!" but I thought the original discussion was more interesting.
I agree with Cochran.. As soon as you're faced with opposition you resort to namecalling rather than facts. I just feel like your argument would be more legitimate if you would have a little class. But because you have no facts I guess that is all that you can do..
If you think the USDA is keeping your beef supply safe you're dreaming. The first mad cow in the States went right into the food supply. Google Dave Louthan the guy that killed it. The USDA covered it up and claimed it was a downer but Dave knew it was a walker and so into human food she went. The USDA is controlled by agribusiness and their only concern is profit. Countries like Japan and Ireland test every single cow for BSE. The USDA is just going through the motions. I'm glad I don't eat that crap.
Cochran So here it goes again. I love a glass of White Zin at least once a week. You on the other hand fall in your glass of hard booze and come here and post the most horrific ramblings towards Ana who is a beloved and intelligent woman that even the antiactivists questioned you and told you to go sober up you drunken broken sad piece of nasty nasty stinking putrid shit! And Kurt you are just as bad so I hope you both enjoy wallowing in your shit together! Peace and Love! Peace for all animals!
Cochran your posts are always so eloquent and formatted. You often demand that sources be sited for the opposing our side yet never have I seen you post a source of your own. You are no more credible than a junior high student in his parents basement that was not an accusation and not meant to be offensive just a comparason I did find a study on ambulatory care management with a corresponding author named Christopher Cochran Phd. could this be yourself? I could not however find anything on diet and health or the psychology of livestock. Do you have a personal vindetta against animals in genera? Do you dislike life if is it not your own?
Lizzey Thank you. Cochran has terrorized these boards forever. We keep losing good people because of his bullying ways. He is a pathetic and nasty piece of shit. Peace for all animals!
Well Judith I'm not stopping you from believing what you want but it is simply researched knowledge that I am putting forth for you. You may choose to believe it or not. Vegetarians are not always correct on all issues.
I never said the Koreans should eat American beef or any other meat. I simply believe the message that they do not want you to kill cows because they think it is cruel and wrong is a more important and powerful message than a misleading piece of propaganda. Comparatively CJD is a nonissue. I guess that makes me a moron to judy. I'll try to move on while she pounds another bottle of white zinfandel. Pink wine!! Yum.
S.Q. thanks for trying to advise me but I would much prefer to take advice from a non meateater. The only thing I do agree with what you had to say is about the way these poor animals are slaughtered. I will never have anything nice to say about Cochran. You live your life and I shall live mine! Peace! Peace for all animals!
And the moron Coch strikes again. Judith your post is so accurate!!!!!
Calling people 'morons' does not get your point across. If you want to change opinions please find a wellresearched article and present it. That will earn not only thought but respect. But I have to agree with Cochran. Same with bird flu. PETA claims that eating chicken puts you at risk for bird flu. However this disease is transmitted through live birds. As long as you cook your chicken your risk is very low. Also mad cow disease is not present in cow meat. Your chance to get infected is present if you eat any part of the central nervous system such as the brain or eyes. I disagree with slaughter methods used today and think they should be changed. But Mad Cow is not really relevant to the issue from most standpoints.
Cochran Now you can add "MORON" to you list! And Kyle You can be Cochrans boy. You two spread nothing but lies. Your both filthy human beings. Go away! Peace for all animals!
Kyle is correct. More people will die from diseases they contracted from their cat than CJD. It is a huge stretch. Wouldn't it be more honest if the protester protested killing cows since that is the thing that bothers PETA in the first place. Why do you guys always obliterate facts by coming up with such far reaching connections. I have been accused of being a murderer a redneck a hick a hillbilly but at least I am not a liar.
That's great! promoting vegetarianism in South Korea You guys should definitely protest "Fur Is Dead" as well.
kyle you seem to be missing the point!!! tomatoes don't give you heart disease and they and other fruits and vegs are linked to preventing disease. and i see you know so much about disease seeing as you can't even spell salmonella!!!! the major point is that we don't want to eat CRUEL meat that has a heap of negative health impacts and more people who avoid it the better the worlds heatlh will be. now enjoy your mad cow ridden DEADLY steak and i will stick to my tomatoe pretty sure i'll survive a bit of gastro
The South Koreans love beef and all meat products. They just want to be safe and only domestically grown beef. There is nothing wrong with American beef. More people have gotten sick from eating tainted vegatables than mad cow. There is a higher chance of catch salminela from eating a tomatoe then eating a mad cow ridden piece of beef and it is up to the slaughter house schlauchthof to kill the sick ones and make sure that there meat isnt eaten.

FRUGAL TRAVELER; A Cottage Of One's Own in Kauai
By DAISANN McLANE
Published: December 28, 2003
''HAVE a wonderful flight and may the wind be at your back and paradise be all you hoped. Aloha.''
Waiting for my connecting flight to Kauai in the Honolulu airport, I reread this e-mail message from DJ Colbert, owner of Emma's Cottage, with a bit of trepidation. I had arranged to rent her cottage in Kilauea, on Kauai's exclusive North Shore, for $500 for five days. The area has only a few rather expensive resorts and hotels, so I'd almost given up hope of staying there, until I found my way to the bustling online marketplace of North Kauai private cottage rentals.
After a few queries my e-mail box began filling with messages that spoke in soothing whispers: ''Mahalo Daisann,'' they began. ''I'm so sorry we are booked up, but please write me the next time you are planning a trip to our paradise. Aloha.''
They made me crave a mai tai.
Web-surfing for Kauai cottages surely ranks among the great armchair travel experiences. What fun it is to ogle the digital photographs of the interiors, trying to decide whether it would be more relaxing to stay in a house with a lemon-yellow bedroom or a tropical turquoise one. Did I want a covered or an uncovered lanai, hammocks, fruit trees or both?
Best of all, the average rental for a little one-room house, non beach-front (views of sea and sand almost double the cost) was about $100 to $125 a night, including taxes. Most of the cottages had kitchens, which promised savings on meals, not to mention long, lazy at-home breakfasts on that lanai.
On the plane, I worried that I'd put too much faith in pretty pastel pictures and alohas and mahalos. I had sent a complete stranger a $500 check. What if Emma's Cottage turned out to be next to a machine-tool factory? What if it didn't exist at all?
But when I landed at Kauai Airport, I reached Ms. Colbert by phone right away. She gave me detailed instructions on how to find the supermarket and the health food store so I could pick up provisions on the way. ''Make sure you ask for a Safeway card,'' she said. ''You'll be able to get a discount on the groceries with it.'' My trepidations vanished.
Ms. Colbert's cottage turned out to be wonderful, even more alluring than it seemed on the Web site: a sweet yellow one-bedroom house set away from the main highway in a complex of other cottages that shared property with an orchid farm. It wasn't completely secluded, but the neighboring houses were far enough away, and behind enough trees that I felt sufficiently alone.
The kitchen, big, white and bright, had a full-size fridge and stove. In the living room, discreetly covered by a Balinese batik throw, was a television set, which I never used, and a CD system stocked with soothing Hawaiian music, which I did. There was even a washer and dryer out back.
The best feature of Emma's Cottage was the papaya tree in the front yard. ''Help yourself,'' my host said, and I did, picking a sun-warmed, heavy and ripe orange-yellow papaya for breakfast each day.
Sitting out on the little wooden deck my first morning, a mug of fresh Kona coffee in one hand and a plate of papaya on my lap, I watched tiny birds with gorgeous red crests (cardinals, according to my field guide) frolic on the front lawn.
Over the next few days I tore myself away to explore in my rental car.
The North Shore of Kauai, a roughly 30-mile stretch traversed by a winding, two-lane highway, is one of the most photographed places in Hawaii. The Na Pali Cliffs, sheer faces of rock that plunge dramatically into the Pacific from heights of up to 4,000 feet, are a staple Hollywood landmark (they appeared in ''Jurassic Park''), as is the beach at Lumahai (''South Pacific''). In the interior of Kauai is a collapsed volcanic crater covered in giant, prehistoric-looking velvety ferns and awash in thin silvery waterfalls that plummet hundreds of feet.
You can only see this sight by signing on for a helicopter ride over the island. It's hokey (there's a videographer filming you as you walk across the tarmac) and expensive (45 minutes for $148), but I took the ride on my first day anyway, since it seemed to be one of those must-do things. I was glad I did. Swooping over waterfalls and zooming up sheer volcanic cliffs is a sobering antidote to tropical postcard clichés.
It also reminded me that natural beauty often has sharp teeth.
Those gorgeous Kauai beaches, for instance. In my cottage, among a pile of pamphlets I found this rather uncheerful one from the Kauai Ocean Rescue Council: ''The coastline surrounding Kauai ... can be dangerous and deadly. Each year thousands of people visit Kauai.... Some visitors do not go home alive.'' The brochure warned of the treacherous rip currents that routinely occur along Kauai's coast, and maps with red dots pointed out the areas where one should be especially watchful. The entire north coast looked as if it had chickenpox.
There's no big coral reef protecting Kauai, the northernmost of Hawaii's major islands, from the full strength of the mighty waves rolling in from the Pacific. The waves are too strong in the winter months even to consider dipping a toe into the water (and many of the beaches disappear); in summer it's calmer, but there is only a handful of spots for carefree swimming. They were full all day, every day I was in Kauai. July, when I was there, is high season.
The morning I headed out in my rental car for Ke'e Beach, where snorkeling is possible, I got there after 10, and spent 20 minutes circling the lot to find a parking space.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_allowed_mime_types() in formatting.php on line 619
Has anyone come across this one yet? I see this error when I'm trying to upgrade plugins and upgrade WP to version 2.9.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_allowed_mime_types() in formatting.php on line 619
Has anyone come across this one yet? I see this error when I'm trying to upgrade plugins and upgrade WP to version 2.9.
I've got exactly the same problem.
It first happened when i was trying to update the Google XML Sitemap plugin and now when i try to upgrade WordPress to 1.9 ...
No idea what to do :(
Hello there,
I believe to have found (one) solution.
I ran into that problem when uploading an image file with two extensions, say "xyz.jpg.gif". In that case wordpress will double-check allowed mime types.
The function that is supposed to do that & that is called (in wp-includes/functions.php) seems to be removed from one of the newer wordpress versions (2.8.5 or 2.8.6) eventhough it is called in this situation. I think the latter version.
So I copy-&-pasted the appropriate function at the end of functions.php:
* Retrieve list of allowed mime types and file extensions.
* @since 2.8.6
* @return array Array of mime types keyed by the file extension regex corresponding to those types.
function get_allowed_mime_types() {
static $mimes = false;
if ( !$mimes ) {
// Accepted MIME types are set here as PCRE unless provided.
$mimes = apply_filters( 'upload_mimes', array(

Stocks slip early Monday after record week
NEW YORK Coming off a record week, the stock market is drifting lower in light trading Monday.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell two points to 14,395. That's a drop of less than 0.1 percent. Intel led the Dow lower, slipping 1 percent.
Last week, the blue-chip index posted four straight days of record highs after blowing past its all-time high on Tuesday. It ended the week up 2 percent.
There were no major economic reports to drive trading on Monday. Later in the week, the government will release figures for the federal budget in February, as well as reports on consumer prices and industrial production.
The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell three points, or 0.2 percent, to 1,548. The Nasdaq composite dropped seven points, also 0.2 percent, to 3,238.
Of the 10 industry groups in the S&P 500 index, telecom and energy companies dropped the most, slipping almost half a percent.
The S&P 500 index is now trading around 15 points, or 1 percent, short of its all-time closing high of 1,565.
In the Treasury market, the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note was 2.04 percent, unchanged from late Friday.
On Friday, the Labor Department said that U.S. employers added 236,000 workers to their payrolls in February, pushing the unemployment rate down to 7.7 percent, the lowest since December 2008.

On our blogs sites, legitimate comments are being posted by readers. However, within the past few weeks, the comments are being inexplicably wiped clean after a short period of time within posting--seems like within a few hours or so. The comments are not being deleted--that is, not being completely removed from the site--they are just automatically being wiped clean.
So, say John Doe, makes a comment. After a short while, the content of the comment gets cleared/erased, leaving a blank spot next to John Doe's name in the comment section.
The only thing that I can see in the Comment History for each comment is "Akismet cleared this comment" when it was posted.
Does anyone know if this is a known issue and what can be done to fix this? I'm completely puzzled as to what may be causing this. And since comments are being cleared, I have no way of looking back to see what was said in order to see what may have triggered the spam filter (or whatever may be the issue).
Here is a post on one of our blogs which is being affected:
At the moment, there are 4 comments in this post alone which are now blank. And, again, this is happening on a number of our blogs in all posts with new comments which use the default WordPress comments feature (as opposed to IntenseDebate, which we use on a few of our blogs, as well).
Lastly, I did just update some plugins this morning (including Akismet) as part of troubleshooting.

An Ironless Low Frequency Subwoofer Functioning under Its Resonance Frequency
A low frequency loudspeaker (10Hz-100Hz) is described. Its structure is totally ironless in order to avoid nonlinear effects due to the presence of iron. The large diaphragm and the high force factor of the loudspeaker lead to its high efficiency. Efforts have been made for reducing the non-linearities of the loudspeaker for a more accurate sound reproduction. In particular we have developed a motor totally made of permanent magnets, which create a uniform induction across the entire intended displacement of the coil. The motor linearity and the high force factor of this flat loudspeaker make it possible to function under its resonance frequency with a great accuracy.

I was trying to use Synergy (the keyboard sharing program) but found I couldn't use the keyboard to log in after boot. A bit of digging and I discovered I cannot even ping my machine before anybody logs in. This is very inconvenient and unacceptable for multiple reasons. In addition to not being able to log in via Synergy, what if there is a power failure and I want to ssh in remotely, or if I want the web server to be running at startup?
Surely there must be some option to enable networking before anybody logs in. I have tried enabling the web server, remote login, etc. to no avail. I have also looked at various texts which purport to indicate how startup works, but some of the files it mentions (e.g. /etc/rc.boot) don't even exist!
edit: i just did an experiment where I booted up and waited 5 minutes before logging in. (wow that "If you are having trouble logging in message" is annoying, and I had to have keyboard activity to prevent the computer from going sleep.) After I logged in, there were no processes in the entire process list older than the time at which I actually logged in.

Hi, this plugin has worked great but now gives me an error on the cart page.
When trying to change the quantity of an item in the cart, this error comes up "You can add a maximum of 15 (Name of product here) to your cart. You already have 13". You can see that it does not make sense as I havnt hit the limit that I set for the product yet, and even if I change the quantity to anything else it gives the same error. Any help or a fix would be great. Thank you

Amnesty International films focus on human rights
Published: Friday, January 20, 2006 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 20, 2006 at 12:00 a.m.
ASHEVILLE -- Today and Saturday the Amnesty International Film Festival will be held in Asheville. Twenty-three documentaries, shorts and feature films highlighting various human rights issues around the world will screen at locations throughout Asheville. The venues include the Fine Arts Theatre, the Asheville Pizza and Brewing Company, and University of North Carolina at Asheville in the Humanities Lecture Hall.
Tickets can be purchased and program information obtained by contacting: The Fine Arts Theatre, 36 Biltmore Ave., Asheville, 232-1536; Asheville Pizza and Brewing Company, 756 Merrimon Ave., Asheville, 254-5339; or UNCA, Humanities Lecture Hall, 1 University Heights, Asheville, 250-3870.
The film festival
Since 1991, the Amnesty International Film Festival has been successfully impacting audiences across the United States with films focusing on the world's most urgent human rights challenges. The core of the festival is the work of the gifted, dedicated filmmakers who overcome seemingly insurmountable odds to bring their visions of humanity's greatest obstacles to the screen. A program of the world's largest human rights organization, the Film Festival travels annually to various U.S. cities as well as to dozens of university and high school campuses around the country with its Festival on Campus program.
Few artistic media have the power to reach across cultures, languages, and even time itself to influence millions of people in the language of our daily lives. Film has such power. Each year dozens of talented filmmakers work against long odds, short finances, and threatening politics to bring to the screen powerful stories of human struggle, sacrifice, and triumph. Some documentary filmmakers have risked their very lives so that we may be moved by far-off stories that, once told, seem very much closer to home. The Amnesty International Film Festival is dedicated to bringing these stories to our communities so that our colleagues, neighbors, and friends can see for themselves the full-range of challenges facing people in every part of the world.
And while public education is at the center of the festival's mission, the goals do not stop there. As a program of the world's largest human rights organization, the Film Festival also draws heavily on Amnesty International's experience as a worldwide campaigning movement. We strive to offer concrete opportunities to create positive change for those who are moved by what they have seen.

The program
War Games, directed by Marc Allen. Documentary. 2005. United Kingdom/Sudan. 58 minutes. Just a few miles from the front lines of one of Africa's longest and most brutal conflicts, thousands of children come together to compete in an Olympic-style athletic competition. The documentary provides an intimate portrait of a community devastated by war, yet still determined to make the most of every moment. Showing at 10 a.m. today, at the Fine Arts Theatre and at 3 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 21, at UNCA.
Fighting for Life in the Death Belt, directed by Adam Elend and Jeff Marks. Documentary. 2004. USA. 52 minutes. Stephen Bright has spent 25 years defending death row inmates in the South. This is the death penalty through his eyes. This film precedes The Man with the Suitcase showing at 5 p.m. today, at UNCA.
The Man with the Suitcase, directed by Chantal Ackerman. Documentary. 1983. France. 60 minutes. The Man with the Suitcase is a near-wordless short film that presents the apparently normal life of a businessman who leaves a loving wife to go to his daily job. However, the profession of the main character is shocking. The issue of accountability is central as the film presents a career in violence as a common and even mundane profession. This film precedes Time Lost showing at 5 p.m. today, at UNCA.
Time Lost, directed by Carla Gutierrez. Short Documentary. 2004. USA. 18 minutes. After 11 years in prison, Albert Johnson was exonerated of one of two rape charges by a DNA test. His story sheds light on the failings of our police and judicial systems. This film follows The Man with the Suitcase showing at 5 p.m. today, at UNCA.
Darwin's Nightmare directed by Hubert Sauper. Documentary. 2004. France/Austria/Belgium. 107 minutes. Sauper's riveting documentary -- called "A picture of hell on earth," by A.O. Scott of the New York Times -- examines the devastating effect of the introduction of the Nile perch to Tanzania's Lake Victoria. The predatory fish, which has wiped out the native species, is sold in European supermarkets, while starving Tanzanian families have to make do with the leftovers. It is a tale about fish, but also about humans between the North and the South and about globalization.
The documentary won several awards, among which was the Silverdocs Festival and 2004 European Film Awards, both for Best Documentary. Showing at 8 p.m. today, at UNCA.
A Message from Fallujah directed by Richard Gibson. Short Documentary. 2005. Australia. 15 minutes. Daniel Crane is an American civil engineer who is nearing the end of a three-month stint trying to help to rebuild war torn Iraq. Intoxicated by the exotic people and surrounds, he stays for "One more cup of habibi" on the morning of his last day in Fallujah. This is all it takes for Daniel to find himself beaten and alone, a hostage in the drama of war.

An inspiring story of loss and redemption, God Sleeps in Rwanda focuses on the spirit of women survivors to overcome the genocide's legacy of grief and loss.

Filmmakers Jerry Henry and Andrea Chia started to film a video diary on the day they found out that she was pregnant. As the parents of a multiracial child they examine racial identity in this experimental personal documentary. They filmed Quin's birth in an unconventional way -- instead of using video, they decided to shoot it on Super 8mm and to shoot it frame-by-frame, like an animation. New parents Jerry and Andrea have endured their own share of discrimination growing up. They hope their newborn son can grow up identifying as something other than "other." This film follows God Sleeps in Rwanda showing at 10 p.m. today, at Asheville Pizza and Brewing Company.
Little Peace of Mine, directed by Eyal Avneri. Documentary. 2004. Netherlands. 56 minutes. This film tells the inspiring, true story of a children's movement for peace between Israelis and Palestinians. Can this next generation's good will prevail?

The Devil's Miner is the story of 14-year-old Basilio Vargas and his 12 year-old brother Bernardino, as they work in the Bolivian silver mines of Cerro Rico, which date back to the 16th century. Through the children's eyes, we encounter the world of devout Catholic miners who sever their ties with God upon entering the mountain. It is an ancient belief that the devil, as represented by hundreds of statues constructed in the tunnels, determines the fate of all who work within the mines. Raised without a father and living in virtual poverty with their mother on the slopes of the mine, the boys assume many adult responsibilities. They must work to afford the clothing and supplies vital to their education. Basilio believes only the mountain devil's generosity will allow them to earn enough money to continue the new school year. Without an education, the brothers have no chance to escape their destiny in the silver mines. Showing at 1 p.m. Saturday, at UNCA.
Innocent Voices, directed by Luis Mandoki. Feature Film. 2004. USA. 111 minutes. Based on the true story of screenwriter Oscar Torres's embattled childhood, Innocent Voices is the poignant tale of Chava, an 11-year-old boy who suddenly becomes the "man of the house" after his father abandons the family in the middle of the civil war opposing the Salvadorian army to the rebel peasants of the FMLN. Chava's life becomes a game of survival, not only from the bullets of the escalating war, but also from the dispiriting effects of daily violence. As he hustles to find work to help his single mother pay the bills, and experiences the pangs of first love for a beautiful classmate, Chava's tiny home village becomes both playground and battlefield. Armed only with the love of his mother and a small radio that broadcasts a forbidden anthem of love and peace, and faced with the impossible choice of joining either the army or the rebels, Chava finds there is another choice. Showing at 5 p.m. Saturday, at UNCA.
I Know I'm Not Alone, directed by Michael Franti. Documentary. 2005. USA. 95 minutes.

1993 Nissan 300ZX 2dr Convertible
Saw this car spring of 89 and said this is what I will drive forever. I have owned 16 z32's wow! What a ride.
eye candy looks
remake the z32 the same change nothing
1993 Nissan 300ZX Turbo 2dr Coupe
I bought this car from a private party with 114xxx miles on it. The first thing you notice about this car is the body style, I feel this car was way ahead of its time in both looks and performance. This car could easily take a 350z chew it up and spit it out. When the turbos kick in on this car you feel like a plane about to take off the runway. You will not find a 16 year old car that looks better than this car, and you definitely wont find a 16 year old Japanese car that comes stock with as much power as this car. If you find one of these at a good price and your willing to pay for the up keep you can not go wrong.
My favorite feature about this car is its comfort level, I am 6'2" so finding a car that i am comfortable in is important. I feel right at home in this car with leg room to spare.
The body kit on the twin turbo z is a little flimsy, it could just be age but with how low it is to the ground, it is going to scrape if you don't drive like a grandma into driveways and over bumps. that is the one thing i feel could be improved
1993 Nissan 300ZX 2dr Coupe
I love the 93 300zx, compliments on a daily basis. The bodystyle is so stylish and sleek everyone thinks it 10 yrs newer! It drives like a dream, the leather interior is beautiful. I only wish it had a few more inches of leg room. But that's a small price to pay for a soon to be sought after classic. I'm never selling it.
Interior design
T-tops look nice but are a pain to use.
I am one of the luckiest men alive on earth. Found my love sitting in one lot. Original owner just trade her in with only 55,000 original miles on her. Fun to drive. Chick magnet is not even enough for say; however, red is more of a chick cop magnet. Caveats buyers!
Electric seat, convertible top, and projector headlight.
Steering is a bit too touchy. Oversteering and drifting, you will. Quite noisy even when the top is down.
1993 Nissan 300ZX 2+2 2dr Coupe
I bought the 93 Fairlady Z RHD that was used in the movie Kill Bill Vol.1. Let me tell you, this car is as much fun to drive as it is just to wash,wax and park it there and stare at it. I love it more than anything including my jealous girl friend.
T-tops, leather interior, Styling and performance. RHD is the best.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the Hispanic population is expected to reach 61.1 million by 2017, a 15.6% increase from 2012. Additionally, Hispanic spending power is expected to climb to nearly $1.7 trillion by 2017, from nearly $1.2 trillion in 2012. Hispanic households are more likely than non-Hispanic households to have children. Hispanic families are also larger than non-Hispanic families, with multigenerational members of the same household consuming various types of foods and packaged goods. The preferred language of Hispanics is a much greater factor than income in the likelihood Hispanics will purchase a private label product, with trust in name brand goods higher among less acculturated Hispanics. Understanding these differences and the types of private label brands Hispanics prefer will help marketers not only maintain, but grow their business among this important consumer group.

Hi thanks for stopping by! You can call me Rachie or Churu. I'm a 24 year old, for the time being in-between jobs, scribbler of fanfiction. Just returned from a year of teaching English in Japan and have found an unprecedented amount of time on my hands. Currently, working on an AU ending for The Lion King that explores the repercussions of Scar's survival. I have no set fandom as you can probably tell from a look at my stories.
If you want to trade detailed reviews send me a PM. I'd love to hear from you! Yay! :D
I, Surburia, do hereby promise to review any fanfiction story that I read despite its age, length or anything else.
I've joined the review revolution; copy and paste this onto your profile and be part of the revolution, too!

Or should I just get a floor mat? Obviously I'd rather have the soft casters, if they do the job, but if they don't it's not worth it. What should I do?
If they are the soft urethane ones like those that are used at roller skating rinks, should be fine.
Check out the chart here and note that for hardwood floors, the wheel type is a function of (your + chair's) weight.

Police: Would-be burglar trapped in Kingman store
KINGMAN, AZ - Kingman police say a teen-ager was arrested after getting trapped in a store he allegedly tried to burglarize.
The Kingman Daily Miner reports that officers responding to a burglary alarm early Sunday morning found a 16-year-old youth inside the store.
According to police, officers found the youth smoking a cigarette in a walk-in cooler.
Police say he had broken through the roof to enter the store but could not reach the hole to get out after finding out that the store's doors were locked from the outside.
According to a police spokeswoman, the youth intended to steal more than $1,700 worth of cigarettes, lighters and alcohol.
The youth faces charges of burglary, theft and criminal damage. He hasn't yet entered a plea and doesn't yet have a lawyer.

I am a huge fan of the kcite plugin. Great work!
Here is a feature request. I would like to see a shortcode option that will make the citation "inline" as opposed to the end of the post in the bibliography. For example, I would like to be able to write:
In the following paper:
the authors showed this and that.
It would be great if there was a shortcode such as "type=inline" to specify this location for the citation as opposed to at the end of the post.
Another feature request would be to pull in the Abstract if it is available from a pubmed post.
Thanks again for the amazing plugin!

A fixed-parameter, discrete-time, first-order, feedback control system is described for regulating grasp during electrical stimulation of paralyzed muscles of the hand. The stiffness of the grasp (the relationship between grasp force and grasp opening) is kept constant by linearly combining force and position feedback signals. Thus, a single continuous command signal can control the size of the grasp opening prior to object acquisition and both grasp and opening after contact. The controller achieves this change in controlled variables by scaling and summing the force and position feedback signals, rather than by a discrete switch in control strategy. Experimental tests of the control system in quadriplegic subjects show that control can be obtained over conditions ranging from unloaded position regulation is isometric force regulation as well as in the transition between these conditions. The robustness of the control system was evaluated during force regulation with isometric loads. Step response rise time and overshoot were much more dependent on system gain than on the location of the controller zero. Responses with a rise time of less than and 2 s an overshoot of less than 30% were obtained over a gain range up to 10, indicating good robustness to muscle gain reductions such as might be caused by fatigue.

Otro originally started out as a hyper noise rock duo project called KUNTZ in the spring of 2010. Featuring Jason Blackmore (Sirhan Sirhan, Rats Eyes) on guitar/vocals & John Cota (Ghetto Blaster, Rats Eyes) on drums. After playing a handful of shows around their hometown of San Diego as a two piece, the boys decided to jam with their beer drinkin' four string pluckin' compadre Jeremy Walsh (Party Time) and immediately upgraded to a three piece.
The trio quickly agreed to the idea of having a front man. Right around that same time, Rats Eyes had performed with the fuck your face off styling's of the French rawk band Semen Sundae at The Power Of The Riff Fest in Los Angeles. Finding out that lead singer Michael McCardle was planning on moving back to the States in the very near future, the boys asked if he would be interested in joining the band. After a couple months of swilling Pacifico's and arguing over a new band name at the practice pad, Otro played its debut show at The Tower on Friday January 14, 2011 with 400 Blows and Death Crisis.
Band Members:
Jeremy Walsh – Bass
John Cota – Drums
Jason Blackmore – Guitar
Michael McCardle – Vocals

IF they check for bupenorphine, it will show anywhere from 11 to 24 days after you stop taking it. If you are on a low dose, 8 mgs or less per day, closer to 11 days, if you are on a higher dose, it CAN show for 24 days. It probably won't show that long, but it can if a person's metabolism is slow. One member here contacted reckitt benchiser and they told them it can show for 24 days, but usually shows for around 11 after last dose.
