Comic-Con Trailers: The Best of the Best, Ranked
Film, TV
Every day in May we will reveal the greatest stories ever told starring a particular character or written/drawn by a particular creator (and throughout the month, you'll get daily chances to vote for NEXT week's lists). These lists are voted on by YOU, the reader!
Here is the list of characters/creators featured so far (along with the rules on how to vote).
Today's list is the Greatest Punisher Stories Ever Told!
As you might imagine, a certain writer dominated this list…
10. Punisher Max "Mother Russia"
This storyline set into play plotlines that would reverberate all the way to the end of Ennis' run. Doug Braithwaite penciled this arc.
It involves Punisher getting involved in a game of international intrigue. This story introduces a number of major characters in the series.
9. Punisher "Circle of Blood"
This was the mini-series that got Punisher his own series! Steven Grant, Mike Zeck and John Beatty were the creative team (with some assists on art towards the end).
8. Punisher Max "Up is Down, Black is White"
This story shows what happens when a bad guy decides to REALLY mess with Frank Castle (think digging up his buried family and defiling their corpses).
Hilarity, as you might imagine, ensues.
Leandro Fernandez and Scott Hanna drew this arc.
7. Punisher Max "Valley Forge, Valley Forge"
This was the conclusion to Ennis' run on Punisher, and it is a brilliant look at the interrelation between fellow soldiers.
Goran Parlov drew this arc.
6. Punisher Max "Man of Stone"
One of the main bad guys from Mother Russia returns for his revenge – this resolves a number of major plots from the series. Leandro Fernandez drew this arc.
Go to the next page for the top five…
Quick note: Fernández, not Hernandez. And I think I pretty much agree with you. I think the "Barracuda" arc might deserve an honorable mention, for introducing the eponymous character.
9 out of 10! Ennis rocks!
I didn't vote, but if I did the list would've been like this and probably even in the same order.
The Slavers is an absolutely brutal arc, I'm sure most people remember it when they think Punisher by Ennis, Welcome Back, Frank has that Ennis dark humor that I love so much and Punisher: Born is just amazing, although I think that Darick Robertson is the star of the show on that one. That splash page on the final issue where we see Frank in the morning after the battle always gives me goosebumps.
So…nobody other than Ennis has written a good Punisher story? The character isn't to my taste, so I haven't read much with him in it, but I find it interesting that only Ennis can write him well, and evidently only in the MAX format.
Guess it didn't matter that I didn't vote, because this is mostly how I would ranked it anyway. Only Ennis's dark humor, Marvel Knights Punisher never did much for me, but The Slavers and Born definitely stand out above the crowd.
Brian, I think the Punisher is a character tailor-made for MAX if there ever was one, and there has been relatively little Punisher MAX without Ennis, so I guess only time will tell if other writers will ever match him. But yeah, Ennis is the only writer who ever got *me* fascinated by the Punisher.
Interesting that only one of this list got a Steven Grant mention, and nothing by Mike Baron.
Guess it's too soon for Jason Aaron to get listed for his PunisherMax run.
Very surprised by the ommission of Miller and Janson's Child's Play, which was probably the first 'real' Punisher story as the way we view the character today, but you can't argue with Ennis dominating this list. I've disliked almost everything else I've read by the guy, but Punisher Max is world class.
Nothing against Ennis, but I find it hard to believe that in the ~35 years the character has been around that the only stories worth reading were written in the last 6-7 years. I mean, there wouldn't have been a punisher movie in the 80's and two videogames in the 90's if someone wasn't writing some compelling punisher stories at the time, right?
Forgot to ask, Brian – do you have all the polls for the month mapped out already, or are you open to suggestions? If you are, can I suggest a greatest stories poll for either Alan Grant or Norm Breyfogle? I feel like their fantastic run on Batman has suffered in polls because it's all great without having one particular standout story that everyone can get behind.
@Mac: It's not that Punisher CAN'T work under other writers and in other formats, it's just that Ennis is the best and does his best work when he's able to go to extremes.
@mizike: There were GOOD stories then, but the BEST were now. It would be interesting to see the number of points and number of #1 votes for a list like this, because I think we probably had a lot of #1 votes for each of these. There were good stories by people of Ennis on people's lists, but these got the marks.
I'll just add a few stories that I liked.
Jason Aaron wrote a 2008 Punisher Christmas special that was really good. Yeah, I know you're thinking a Christmas special sounds stupid but from what I remember, it has almost nothing to do with Christmas.
I really liked Ennis's Punisher vs. Wolverine story, even though all Ennis did was ridicule Wolverine and it was pretty unrealistic. In any case, it's pretty fun.
Speaking of Punisher vs. Wolverine, I only read one issue (#2) of a series they had together called Damaging Evidence but I remember liking it. I haven't read it in years, so it might be just because I was a kid. The depiction of Wolverine is quite different though, more the ugly bastard kind.
Also, I've wanted to read the Dark Reigh: The List Punisher special, by Aaron too, which also has him fighting (a) Wolverine.
Okay, maybe that's too much Wolverine for you but I did pick up the first trade of Ennis's MAX series and didn't find it too exciting, which I think is #4 on this list.
It's not that none of the stories written in the past 35 years aren't worth reading. It's that Ennis' Punisher is THE Punisher. It's exactly how the character should be. When you think of the Punisher, you think of Ennis' Punisher. It's so creepy how well he knew the character.
He took the guy from just being someone who kills thugs to something more.
I do have to mention Remender's Punisher arcs. While it hasn't been around for too long, he does have a solid hold on the character. I don't care how silly Frankencastle seems. It's a delightful fun read… I mean come on, he throws Man-Thing at a helicopter fast ball special style.
I'm somewhat shocked that none of Ennis's one-shots with the character made the list. The Cell and The End were in many ways better-crafted, more emotionally resonant, and more definitive of the character than a couple of the arcs that did make it, even if you were only voting for Ennis stuff.
I wasn't that fond, I admit, of "Long, Cold Dark," mostly because I thought one of its central plot elements was rather cliché, and the story didn't play with the cliché at all. And it's truly odd to me that it displaced the first Barracuda arc in the voting.
Ennis's Punisher is awesome, but yeah, major injustice that we have not even one story by Mike Baron included here.
I've seen it with other characters too, when a run is so amazingly good, that it makes people forever overlook other prior runs that were also pretty good and would have been remembered and honored if the newer run hadn't come along.
Bill Mantlo's Hulk (forever eclipsed by Peter David) and Messner-Loebs's Flash (forever eclipsed by Mark Waid). Now we can add the Punisher to this list.
I really recommend Punisher: Tyger.
One of the writers at the time of the Punisher's super-popularity was one of the biggest hacks around and the book still sold great.
During the Punisher boom, the novelty of the character and tone of the book were all that was needed to sell it.
I would have voted for one of my all time favorites "Small Wake for a Tall Man" (Punisher War Journal #4) but then I realized I would have 9 more spots to fill.
I really enjoyed the first three arcs of Fraction's run as well as the Dark Reign relaunch with Remender (including Franken-Castle). And I'm not too big on Ennis, which leaves me little reason to read his Punisher. So I guess that leaves my choices rather limited in recent years. I should give Aaron's Punisher a shot.
I'm somewhat shocked that none of Ennis's one-shots with the character made the list.
Three of them made the Top 15, though (one of them just BARELY missed the Top 10, which would have made the Top 10 entirely Ennis)!
Bah, I say, bah.
Kids these days, what do they know from the Punisher? Not even one of my top ten seemed to rate here.
Is there a company-owned character that is more associated with ONE creator's run than Punisher(discounting stuff like Jack Knight, or Morpheus)?
Before Ennis wrote the Punisher, I thought the whole character was a (one dimensional) joke.
That all changed with "Welcome Back Frank".
The move from Marvel Knights (occasionally damned funny but never goofy) to Max realistic Punisher showed how versatile Ennis can be.
And yeah, the best One Shot is "Tyger".
I mean, there wouldn't have been a punisher movie in the 80's and two videogames in the 90's if someone wasn't writing some compelling punisher stories at the time, right?
You're cute.
My #2 was Archie Meets the Punisher. Shame it didn't make it to the final list.
Quick note: Fernández, not Hernandez.
Oops! Thanks, Elio!
The Long Cold Dark was my number one mostly because it brings everything to a head and takes that "cliche" and then turns it around to actualy make Frank human.
"Is there a company-owned character that is more associated with ONE creator's run than Punisher(discounting stuff like Jack Knight, or Morpheus)?"
Barring cases where the creator created the character and more or less retired it when done, I can't think of many. Maybe Alan Moore's Swamp Thing? Morrison's Animal Man?
"The move from Marvel Knights (occasionally damned funny but never goofy) to Max realistic Punisher showed how versatile Ennis can be."
The Russian with boobs and a few other bits were a little goofy, but in a so madly over the top sort of way that it's forgivable. Although the versatility thing is absolutely true. I can't think of another case where the same creator did such wildly different takes on a character and both versions were instant classics.
My pick for the best one shot is The End, but I can't rightly quibble with any selection.
I'd imagine that Mike Baron didn't make the list because while he had some solid enough single issues, most people think of story arcs for lists like this and most of his long stories just fizzled out in the end. The Final Days is a great story for the first six issues and then the seventh ends with him turning The Punisher black.
I can't really argue with this list, even though I have been a long time Punisher reader. I can't say that every arc Ennis did was great but this is a very solid list. Though I did hear one interview where he said that in retrospect that he's not such a big fan of Welcome Back, Frank and that he thought his MAX work was vastly better.
Its odd, I love the concept of the Punisher(and when Remender and Aaron write him) and I love Ennis on Hitman and Preacher, but I don't really enjoy them together. I like the first story arc, but it felt really decompressed and wasn't very fun to read.
"I've seen it with other characters too, when a run is so amazingly good, that it makes people forever overlook other prior runs that were also pretty good and would have been remembered and honored if the newer run hadn't come along.
Bill Mantlo's Hulk (forever eclipsed by Peter David) and Messner-Loebs's Flash (forever eclipsed by Mark Waid). Now we can add the Punisher to this list."
Love the Messner-Loeb Flash! "Freefall in Scarlet" is still my pick for greatest single issue Flash story ever, and I'd rate the whole run just above Waid's. But I know I'm in the minority.
The Archie/Punisher crossover was one of the few true gems from the early 90s inter-company crossover craze and it's a pity (but not, I guess, a surprise) that it was overlooked here.
Love these lists, even for characters of whom I have barely read ten stories I can remember! Kudos for the idea and thanks for the work, Brian!
I find the lack of 'Kitchen Irish' disturbing.
Abus Abbas:
Before Ennis wrote the Punisher, I thought the whole character was a (one dimensional) joke.
That all changed with "Welcome Back Frank".
I agree with the first part, but in Welcome Back Frank he became if anything even more of a one dimensional joke. It's just that Ennis managed to make the joke funny.
It was only when Punisher Max started that he stopped being a one dimensional joke.
Mostly this list is about right (though I didn't much like Circle of Blood). It's a shame not to see Child's Play or Dave Lapham's excellent Daredevil vs Punisher: Means and Ends. I was a bit surprised not to see Widowmaker either.
Great list, but you definitely missed "Eurohit"
I'm also a little surprised the list is basically all-Ennis. I've always found his Punisher stuff to be overrated.
I'm really disappointed there aren't any Chuck Dixon stories here. A lot of what Ennis has done with the character can originally be found in Dixon's stuff.
No Assassin's Guild?
I've never met Tim Bradstreet, but I picture him with a single, stark light source directly above his head at all times, forever.
I was pretty sure that Frankencastle wasn't going to make this list. I was right! (thank god for some people with good taste)
I know some of the longtime Punisher fans are probably going to be disappointed with this list, but for me it's just about right. I had never given the Punisher a second thought until Ennis and Dillon worked their magic on the "Welcome Back, Frank" mini-series. Since then, it was a long string of one solid Ennis-written story after another.
Slavers is my favorite Punisher story too. That scene where he repeatedly slams Vera against the window all the while giving her a taste of her own medicine is visceral and disturbing and absolutely gripping. When Frank says "It has been a long time since I hate anyone the way I hate these people," a chill runs down my spine everytime I read that part…
Punisher The Cell
Punisher The End
Both by Ennis and they always seemed to me to be an Alpha and Omega type story for Frank. Read them in tandem! They're absolutely breathtaking!
Also gotta throw in DNA's Punisher Year One!
Some great, great stuff on that list, although I personally would have put "Kitchen Irish" ahead of "Man of Stone" or "Mother Russia."
Also, "Punisher: The Cell" was a fantastic one-shot story.
I never thought there was a definitive Punisher, like there's no definitive Batman or Superman. I enjoy that Baron, Dixon, Fraction, and Remender seem to realize that he can do pretty much anything.
But what do I know? I like FrankenCastle.
Punisher meets Archie didn't make the cut???
They need to make a hardcover book of all of Tim Bradstreet's covers. If they haven't already that is.
I didn't vote in this category, because I knew all I'd come up with would be Punisher appearances up to and possibly including the first miniseries. I've always liked Frank better as the crazy guy that heroes have to stop than as a protagonist in his own right. That said, I would have totally voted for Punisher/Archie.
The FIRST MAX Punisher series I got was The Slavers, so I agree with it being number 1!
Pretty good list, not surprising to see it Ennis-dominated. I suspect Aaron will make his mark on Frank too, he's been a good fit.
LOL can't wait to see Best Hulk stories. 9 Peter David ones and "Planet Hulk" thrown in just for variety lol
I disagree with this list completely. I never enjoyed Garth Ennis' Punisher except for the Born mini-series. I do love the runs of Mike Baron. Chuck Dixon, & Matt Fraction. Although Jason Aaron's current Max series isn't my thing, his Christamas Special should be on this list as well as Jonathan Mabbery's one shot. But for me, no one has or ever will do a series to equal Steven Grant & Mike Zeck's original mini-series, Circle of Blood.
The Slavers was so good. The ending where Frank throws the lady against the window still haunts me.
Bah. A list that didn't include the "To topple the Kingpin" story but has 9 out of 10 slots dedicated to Ennis and most of it for the boring MAX crap can't be taken seriously by anyone who calls himself a fan of the Punisher – and I mean the real Punisher and not the character Ennis wrote who doesn't resemble "Frank Castle" in the slightest (and no, I'm not an Ennis hater – I love his Marvel Knights stuff and even "Born". But the MAX series was dull, dumb and boring IMO).
Yup, total arrgement with this list especially the #1 spot. However I feel that Mother Russia should be moved up a bit. Max Nick Fury whipping a general with his belt needs to recognized for its awesomness.
The best Bulls teams are all the Jordan teams?
seriously, after Ennis, it's hard to read the other stuff. He killed the Punisher.
what happened to larosa and Fernandez, parlov too. Why aren't they on books right now?
Totally agree, but for me, Born is the best, Slavers the second, the rest is OK.
The thing is, the max comics are not Punisher stories, they are an alternate universe punisher, they are awesome stories, sure, put them on some kind of list and praise em, but they are not the same guy,
If someone said whats your favourite Spidey story and you said 2099 and Noir or 1602, most would say you are being a bit disengenuous (sp?) Just because the two are very similar people forget Max Frank is a different character from a different fictional universe.
I think this list is dead on. Whether you consider the MAX run an alternate universe or not, it's the best Punisher run to date. It's an example of what a writer at the top of his craft can do, when he has a deep understanding of a character. It's visceral and real, and if you're honest, you have to admit that it makes you question your own humanity at times. Boring? Most definitely not. Truthfully, Ennis should have his own list, because when it comes to the Punisher, nobody can touch him.
Maybe a lone voice here but the first Punisher War Zone arc was kick ass fun. It was the first art by John Romita Jr where he really embraced Kirby chunkiness and laid the foundation for all the awesome that was to come.
Toby, that makes no sense to me.
When the time comes to choose Superman stories, I doubt all 10 of them will come from the same "universe."
Will you say All-Star Superman doesn't count because it's alternate universe Superman?
Yeah, Toby, your position really does not follow.
The Batman list also had two "alternate reality" Batman stories (Dark Knight Returns and Mad Love).
It doesn't matter – a great Batman story is a great Batman story is a great Batman story.
Same with Punisher.
And the greatest Punisher stories just happen to be the Ennis ones (that's not to say that it wouldn't be interesting to see what a list would look like not counting the Ennis issues).
You're not a lone voice, that's my favorite Punisher story too!
John Chidley-Hill
Suicide Run was better than Eurohit and just right before it. Those were the issues that got me reading the Punisher. But anything by Garth Ennis on the Punisher rocks. My dream series would be Suicide Run by Garth Ennis remake!!!
Suicide Run was better than Eurohit and just right before it.
I'm pretty sure Suicide Run followed Eurohit.
ETA: Yeah, Suicide Run was more than a year after Eurohit.
A third voice here for that Punisher War Zone arc. Dixon has always been my favorite Punisher writer.
Bah. A list that didn't include the "To topple the Kingpin" story but has 9 out of 10 slots dedicated to Ennis and most of it for the boring MAX crap can't be taken seriously by anyone who calls himself a fan of the Punisher – and I mean the real Punisher and not the character Ennis wrote who doesn't resemble "Frank Castle" in the slightest (and no, I'm not an Ennis hater – I love his Marvel Knights stuff and even "Born". But the MAX series was dull, dumb and boring IMO).
You can dislike the Ennis stuff because it doesn't fit with previous depictions of the character if you like, but calling it dumb is just plain wrong.
Personally I'm quite happy that it didn't fit with previous depictions as previous depictions were of a character I have no interest in reading.
Nothing by Chuck Dixon or Mike Baron? Fail. Agree with #1 though.
"Personally I'm quite happy that it didn't fit with previous depictions as previous depictions were of a character I have no interest in reading."
It was the same character. Ennis himself he based his Frank on Dixon's.
" Ennis himself said"
Thats a superb qoute there.
Well thanks. *blushes*
no mention of the jigsaw puzzle (issues 34-40)?
I'm so glad I'm not the only one that thinks The Punisher Meets Archie got overlooked on this list.
I'm also with AndSymo: I loved that Dixon/Romita Punisher: War Zone arc. Another story I loved (and one that not too many people know about, i don't think) is Punisher: The Ghosts of Innocents by Jim Starlin and Tom Grindberg:
I AM FeAR, Old Bull Lee and Jason Green you are all clearly (comic) scholars and gentlemen. I still pull out that arc from time to time but I am forever catching someting on the $%@$^ cut out cover!
just read ULTIMATE MARVEL TEAM-UP #6-8
to me that is the most well-defined punisher story i've ever read, and it features daredevil and, to a lesser extent, spiderman.
written by Bendis and drawn by Bill Sienkiewicz, whose art totally blew me away. best punisher artist i've ever seen, best punisher story, imo, and i HAVE read Ennis
[…] Comic Book Resources – Greatest Punisher Stories Ever Told […]
Ennis' Punisher Max should be #1, as a whole. It was very difficult to decide which was better. And "The end" should have been here.
Forgive my ignorance – I've read few Punisher stories, and no Ennis ones – but the guy on the cover of 6. Punisher Max "Man of Stone" looks like a Russian Kingpin-on-a-diet?
Thanks for the compliments, AndSymo.
Although I am a supporter of the List,Garth Ennis' Punisher IS the Punisher to me and would have dominated my Top 10 if I had done one. I wanted to echo what a couple of others have said:
I love the first arc of Punisher: War Zone by Dixon and Romita Jr. Glorious over-the-top Punisher action with some smokin art by Romita Jr. It would have definitely have been on my personal ten.
When I saw Valley Forge I was a little miffed that it wasn't number one. But when I finally down to see The Slavers I was reminded of what is in retrospect the best standalone story arc of Ennis' run. But VF,VF tied every single previous arc of Garth Ennis' time with Punisher Max. Really, if a plot point or character or thread is not mentioned in that last chapter, it's related directly and essentially to one that is. I was taken aback by the interconnectedness of Ennis' conclusion, something no comic had done for me so far. Plus right after reading Watchmen, having that plain prose reading material in between the comic art was pretty resonant.
I shoulda voted
I am interested in seeing the top 15 here, as you have made elsewhere, just curious to see if there was other non Ennis stuff (and which of them).
War Zone war awesome, just like Eurohit and Suicide run.
PUNISHER:WAR ZONE#1-7 ,written by Chuck Dixon and art supplied by the definitive PUNISHER art team of John Romita Jr. and Klaus Janson should have been a definite must for this list. A kick-arse story featuring Frank infiltrating a mob family, and the way he wormed his way in was also used in the Thomas Jane flick. Also the hellacool government wetboy Shotgun included in on the action as well. And to top it off, Ennis himself stated in a WIZARD interview that Dixon's Punisher was the model he followed when crafting "Welcome Back Frank." So there.
I would not have a big problem removing Welcome back Frank for War Zone to be honest.
[…] BEST PUNISHERS. In the always enjoyable "Comics Should Be Good" column, they've compiled a list of the best Punisher stories. Nearly all are Garth Ennis, […]
Good list. My two and one are both born and the slavers.
I did not vote, so I can´t complain.
Although I enjoyed some of Ennis stories ("Welcome back, Frank" is one of my favorites too.), I see some great "non-MK/non-MAX" Punisher stories missing. For me it looks like people just forgot a "non-Ennis-Punisher" existed.
"River of blood" and "Return to big nothing" are definitely missing here.
The fact that nothing by Carl Potts is on this list is a joke.
Want Frank pre-Ennis? Start with Punisher War Journal #1 and keep reading right through Jim Lee's art until the end of Tex's run. Also, the 5 issues of Punisher Erik Larsen drew featuring the Shadowmasters are really cool and underrated. (can't think of the issue #'s, but they should be easily found)
[…] [EDIT: Apparently some folks over at Comic Book Resources agree with me.] […]
"Suicide Run" is the best Punisher story ever!!
Any Punisher list without Return to Big Nothing is flawed. You can credit Ennis and Dixon, but the character they write is because of Grant and Zeck. (And to some extent, Frank Miller). And that they got to complete the story this time makes it superior to Circle of Blood (which started off stronger than it ended anyway. Can't beat the end of RtBN).
Okay ha ha Garth. Now stop making lists, and get back to work! Drop Bradstreet while your at it, I'm sick of his lame photo tracing.

Wine Marinated Grapes
Total Time
3hrs 10mins
Prep 10 mins
Cook 3 hrs
From Bon Apetit. This recipe is great for a dinner party because it is so easy and attractive, but it also tastes really good. The recipe says you can add the leftover wine marinade to chilled club soda to make drinks out of it.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 750 ml dry white wine (1 bottle)
- 1⁄4 cup sugar, plus
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 lb red grapes
- 1 lb concord grapes (you could sub this with green grapes)
- 1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
- Break the bunch of grapes apart into little clusters.
- Combine white wine and sugar in a large bowl and stir to dissolve sugar. (The recipe says not to use an aluminum bowl.).
- Add in the grapes and lemon peel, and gently toss to coat.
- Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours or up to 24 hours.
- Transfer grapes to a serving tray or shallow bowl and sprinkle with rest of sugar.
- Optional: you can substitute the sprinkled sugar for a bit of fresh chopped rosemary.
Most Helpful
Not only did this ruin a perfectly good bottle of wine, but it also destroyed two pounds of grapes. This is the most expensive waste of food that I've ever committed.

We noted recently that President Obama, during his inaugural speech, outlined a liberal agenda of programs he intends to push during his second term. There wasn't much centrism in it, and those looking for a spirit of bipartisan cooperation were probably disappointed. Those same people will no doubt also not be particularly happy with the staff appointments the president is making for his second term, another sign that he isn't going to be in a compromising mood in the years to come.

Lesson Learned on NSA Spying? Hopefully?
Dear Republican,
I hear you're a little miffed at Obama's National Security Agency collecting phone records of millions of innocent American Verizon customers. I read some comments on the "bombshell" over at Townhall.com. Guy Benson seems displeased.
I hear ya!
I'm more than a little perturbed myself. I was always under the impression that the Fourth Amendment limited the federal government's power to snoop around in innocent people's private affairs without a warrant.
But I have to admit, I'm a little confused about your indignation. After all, you made it all possible!
Remember the Patriot Act?
Yup. It was your guy, George W. Bush, who insisted the feds needed these broad, sweeping powers to "protect us from the terrorists." When civil libertarians protested and invoked the Constitution, you ridiculed them and swore it was "only for the terrorists." You insisted these powers were absolutely necessary to "keep us safe." I guess you never stopped to think "your guy" wouldn't remain in power forever.
Nice bed you made.

I created this site using Twenty Ten. In all the pages that are using the one-column layout (which incidentally have comments turned off), there is an extra
--> at the bottom of the page. It looks like it's right after where the comments area would be, if comments were allowed. It doesn't show up on the blog page. I don't know if that's because comments are "on" on the blog, or because I use the two-column layout on the blog. I have looked at onecolumn-page.php, footer.php, and comments.php and I don't see an extra closing comment tag anywhere. Help?

Mr. Popper's Penguins (Hardcover)
Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
Mr. Popper's Penguins is one of the handful of American books for children that has attained the status of a classic. First published in 1938, this story of a housepainter who is sent a male penguin by the great Admiral Drake, and who, thanks to the arrival of a female penguin, soon has twelve penguins living in his house, has amused and enchanted generations of children and their parents.
About the Author
Richard Tupper Atwater (1892-1948) lived in Chicago and worked as a journalist, often writing humorous pieces for newspapers such as the "Chicago Tribune". He wrote two books for children before beginning "Mr. Popper's Penguins", a 1939 Newbery Honor Book. Before he could finish the story, however, he became ill. His wife, Florence Hasseltine Atwater (1899-1979) finished the book, helping launch a story that has remained popular for generations.
Robert Lawson (1892-1957) received his art training at the New York School of Fine and Applied Arts. His favorite medium, pen and ink, is used expressively and with detail in his black and white illustrations inThe Story of Ferdinand (by Munro Leaf). In addition to illustrating many children's books, includingMr. Popper's Penguins, Robert Lawson also wrote and illustrated a number of his own books for children. In 1940, he was awarded the Caldecott Medal for his picture book illustrations inThey Were Strong and Goodand in 1944, he was awarded the Newbery Medal for his middle grade novelRabbit Hill.

the courage to intervene and stop the violence."

Bart Pricestaff biosend email
A Sheriff's Office corrections deputy, accused of fabricating an elaborate story about three men abducting her and leaving her in the woods, tied up, beaten and cut, was sentenced to one year of probation Thursday.
A corrections deputy at the Sheriff's Office for over five years, Lisa Suzanne Lawrence, 39, was charged last August with filing a false abduction report.
Lawrence pleaded no contest to the first-degree misdemeanor charge Thursday morning and accepted the probation as a plea bargain offered by Assistant State Attorney Amy Osteryoung.
''I'm innocent,'' Lawrence said after sentencing. ''Like any other citizen in the county, I have limited resources, and I can't fight this in court to prove it.''
Lawrence told deputies she was looking for shells at South Ponte Vedra Beach Recreation Area when three men grabbed her and drove her to a wooded area, where she was tied up, beaten and cut.
Working in the jail's booking department before she was arrested, Lawrence was described by co-workers as well-respected. Her personnel file indicated she had an exemplary employee record.
Sheriff Neil Perry has said that he is confident there was no abduction. Investigative reports state there were inconsistencies in Lawrence's account of what happened, as well as a lack of physical evidence found at the scene.
Lawrence was terminated from the Sheriff's Office, and the department's in-house career service board upheld the termination after Lawrence appealed, according to Deputy Chuck Mulligan.
Osteryoung requested to have a guilty conviction put on her record because of the number of hours investigators spent on the case, but County Judge Charles Tinlin withheld a conviction.
''I'm not excusing the behavior she's charged with, but I am withholding the adjudication of guilt,'' Tinlin said.
If Lawrence violates her probation, she could face a year in jail, Tinlin said. The charge carries up to a year in jail and a $1,000 fine. She was out of jail on a $10,000 bond.
A cost analysis showed that $3,968.50 was spent investigating the case. A restitution hearing will be set at a later date, Osteryoung said.
Lawrence's Jacksonville attorney, Gray Thomas, said accepting the plea bargain was in her best interest.
''We were just ready to conclude this case. It was in her best interest to conclude this case at this time,'' Thomas said. ''This has been a very difficult time for Ms. Lawrence and a lot of other people, and it's time to move on.''
Lawrence, who said she is unemployed, told the judge she was planning to go back to school to train for another occupation.

Is it possible to remove the box shadow for the area before the first page in the flipbook?
Currently the first page starts on the right, like the cover page of a book, unfortunately if you choose to display shadow on the flipbook, it is displayed all the way across, even if no page is there.
Looking at the css, the box-shadow is added to the div with the ID magazine, I guess for the shadow to be removed on the left hand side, you'd need to take it off #magazine, and add it to the individual page divs.
Would it be possible to fix this in a future version of the plugin?

I am doing a safe and low impact routine
By Bev, January 7, 2013
Comment: Well I came home before dinner and my blood sugar was 149 and I was wondering exactly what influance light rebounding would have on my reading...so I light bounced with some arm movement while whatching a tv show for 20 minutes at the end of the 20 minutes my blood sugar had only dropped 10 points and that was very disheartning ..... But I rechecked my blood sugar at the hour mark and it had actually by then dropped a full 31 points. I was thrilled!!! I have a commitment to rebound 3 x 20 minutes sessions a day and 20 jumps and hour through out the day...to help my insumin sensitivity ... I am thrilled with my hot pink Bellicon :) Thank you

text: In a research note relating to Intel's announcement last Friday, ML-BAC commented that: "Lithography spending should remain robust at 14nm. [Intel] management expects to accelerate the re-use of existing equipment for the transition from 22nm to 14nm manufacturing (we think the re-use could be ~50%). While this could be viewed as broadly negative for capacity-related names . . ., we expect Intel's use of multiple patterning at 14nm should continue to benefit ASML and CYMI. The move to the 14nm node should also benefit technology enablers, like KLAC and UTEK."

New Initiative:
Marietta College Regional Associations
Do you want to explore new opportunities to engage with classmates, friends and Marietta College?
An exciting initiative from your Marietta College Alumni Association can help make this possible!
How, you ask? The answer is through a regional association. This innovative program will strengthen connections, cultivate a spirit of loyalty and extend the reach of the College by multiplying and amplifying your relationship with your alma mater. Regional associations are a wonderful way to connect or reconnect as well as foster relations with Marietta College, fellow alumni, family and friends in your area.
The Marietta College Alumni Association and the Office of Alumni Relations are currently working to establish regional associations around the country where significant populations of Pioneers are located.
Cincinnati and Columbus are two regions that will be launching their own new associations during the summer of 2012. If you are interested and live in either of these areas, please be on the lookout for regional association information in your mailbox and e-mail in-box later this spring. Postcards and e-messages will share such information as how to get involved, how to take a short and simple e-survey asking you what you want out of the program and the impact your completion of the survey will have on the planning process for a successful Regional Association in your area.
The Marietta College Alumni Association is excited to launch regional associations where Pioneers want to get involved!
Be an early bird! Contact the Office of Alumni Relations and join fellow Pioneers to establish a group in your area.
If you have questions or would like to get involved please contact:
Sarah Kelly, Assistant Director of Regional Associations and Young Alumni Programming
email@example.com or call 1-800-274-4704.
We Need Your Help…Fill Out a Regional Association Survey Today!
Marietta College is in the process of developing a Regional Association program, connecting members of the Marietta College community to their alma mater regardless of their distance from campus. While the Association program will be based around four core components; connections, image enhancement, career and life networking and development, each Association will have the opportunity to grow and develop its own unique identity based on its region. For this, we would like your help…
The survey below is to gather feedback on the types of programs in which you would be most interested in participating. We appreciate your input and hope to see you at an Association event in the future.
Please take 5 minutes to take this 7 question survey that will help us and the volunteers create a Regional Association that will fit you and your area!
Interested in learning more about Regional Associations?
Are you interested in starting or being part of a Regional Association? The Regional Association Handbook will serve as the principal resource for each Regional Association and its lead committee. Read the Regional Association Handbook to get a sense of our new program!

Tompkins Cortland English professors work to speed up developmental coursework.
Tompkins Cortland Community College President Carl Haynes will retire on August 31, 2017. Haynes, the longest-serving president in the College's history, will have been president for 23 of his 48 years at the College. Just the third president in the College's history, he is the first to hold the position for more than two decades.
The responsibility of finding the next president belongs to the College's Board of Trustees. The Board plans to work with a search firm this fall with the expectation of selecting a new president late during the 2017 spring semester.
The College has announced 429 students have earned Dean's List recognition for the 2016 Spring semester. To make the Dean's List, students must be matriculated in a degree program and complete at least 12 credits with a GPA of 3.5 or better.
Seven Tompkins Cortland Community College student-athletes have been honored with a National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Academic Student-Athlete Award. The students represent seven different sports, and comprise the biggest group of honorees the College has had in a single year.
John Bradac has been named the Dean of Student Life at Tompkins Cortland Community College. He replaces Amy Trueman, who retired after 34 years at the College.
Bradac has more than 30 years experience in higher education, including the last 27 years at Ithaca College.
The College Board of Trustees has adopted a $41,603,321 budget for the 2016-17 year that includes a $140 increase in full-time tuition for New York State residents (from $4,650 to $4,790 per year) and an $8 increase per credit hour in part-time tuition for New York State residents (from $164 per credit to $172 per credit). The budget includes no increase in taxpayer dollars provided by Tompkins and Cortland counties.
We've had housing longer than other community colleges, and our experience shows. You get your own room in our apartment-style suites, and you benefit from a fully residential campus with active student life.
With over 15 clubs on campus and the organizations, Student Advisory Board and College Entertainment Board, there is something for everyone.
Tompkins Cortland opened in an old high school building in Groton – and the first president was often seen with a broom sweeping the hallways. Today, the College has a state-of-the-art academic campus, new athletic facilities, and seven residence halls.
The CTC is a great place share resources and experiences to enhance teaching and learning. Find out about conferences on campus, the Mentors & Partners Program and the regular round table discussions.
The College is continually building long-term relationships with businesses and the community. Explore the possibilities.

Do you know why just switching to set_post_thumbnail_size( 360, 360, true ); doesn't resolve the issue?
That would mean more function-switching, which I think is the root cause of the issue. The act of switching between '
add_image_size' and '
set_post_thumbnail_size' (and vice-versa) somehow causes images to lose their defined size

Love Pantene Beautiful Lengths shampoo and conditioner. I've been using this for about 4 years on my fine, long, curly hair. I have tried many other brands but always come back to this one. It leaves my hair shiny, soft and smelling great. My boyfriend and son always say my hair smells good. I use conditioning treatments here and there but I don't think I will ever use anything but this product. I hope they never discontinue it. I think its awesome, it really works for my hair.

Absolutely awful. it made my hair feel like straw but clumpy and greasy at the same time- how is that even possible pantene? I gave this shampoo two chances, and the second was worse than the first. I think a bar of soap would clean my hair better.

There is nothing positive that this product for my hair. Yes, it got my hair and scalp, completely clean. However, it is far too drying to my hair, and it is not something that I ever will revisit again. Pantene shampoos are some of the most drying ones that I have ever used on my hair. This shampoo comes with great claims, but it failed to deliver on any of such, with my hair.

I have very fine hair & used this only once since my sister always raved about it (she has very thick, wavy locks) and wanted to see what she liked about it. I always shampoo twice in the shower & after using this my hair felt so dry & brittle. I didn't have a conditioner on hand at the time so I was very afraid for my hair. When I looked at it in the mirror the next morning (I take night showers) my hair was so shiny & clean. There was no trace of dry shampoo or styling products or dirt or oil at all. I was shocked. It did for me what a clarifying shampoo does to others. I'm sure pairing this shampoo with my new Head & Shoulders Deep Conditioning Mask will make this combo work beautifully especially since I only wash my hair twice a week. Girls with fine hair too, don't be afraid of how dry this makes your hair. Just go in with a deep conditioning mask afterwards & you should be alright.

I had high hopes for this product. however, expect for the smell, I did not enjoy it. I normally use a sulfate free shampoo, but after hearing this product hyped on youtube for those growing out their hair I decided to give it a try. LIES! My ends are dry and I do not feel this has helped my hair stay strong. Also leaves a build up after 3 - 5 days. Not a awful shampoo, but it did not work for my hair type (fine, with dry ends). You might find this works for a thicker hair type, however I would still recommending avoiding as it contains sulfates. Sulfates do dry out your hair over time, so they are best avoided. I am currently finishing up my bottle and will not be re-buying .

Does what it should: thick shampoo that lathers up great, leaves my hair soft, shiny, smooth, smelling great as well as clean and light feeling. I always stick with Pantene for shampoo and conditioner.

Big media misses a key climate censorship story
A year and a half overdue, the Bush Administration finally submitted its Climate Action Report – 2006 (CAR) last Friday afternoon, with hardly any mention by government officials of the report or its shameful findings (like a 15.8 percent increase in U.S. emissions since 1990).
While the mainstream media has been either silent or blind to the report's release, major kudos are due to the blogosphere. The few adept, new media journalists to blog on the report include Kevin Grandia from DeSmogBlog and Rick Piltz at Climate Science Watch.
Piltz's analysis notes that the report doesn't draw on the most current and accurate science (most notably the IPCC), nor does it acknowledge some of the consequences that threaten us. Piltz concldues,
The failure to use this material, and the overall evasiveness of the impacts and vulnerability chapter of the report, was clearly a political decision. Administration officials have once again defaulted on an opportunity to address a crucial challenge for national preparedness.
Piltz's post ends with a list of questions for the Administration, and rightfully so. However, my question is more inline with what Kevin Grandia is asking:
Where is the media to expose these sort of trip-ups and inform the public now – not as a citation in a later hearing, or once the release is history! In light of this Administration's record of scientific censorship and disgraceful climate record, there should be a public cacophony over the nature and content of this report!
4 Responses to Big media misses a key climate censorship story
Oh, please, Joe. Don't tell me you expect the media to cover trivia like this plus the really pressing news of the day, like what Britney, Nicole, and Paris are up to.
I mean, really–we have to have our priorities.
What about our story back in March on the near-final draft?
Pointed out several of the issues you raise here.
Agreed Andy, there was good coverage of the draft report by the NY Times in March — but still, the final report should have received mainstream media attention.
It's an important report, 19 months late that has been at the center of controversy (re: Phil Cooney) for a long time.

I have some doubts under this topic,
- Can a player aged 19 play under 19 international cricket match? (Since 19 is not under 19)
- Consider a player having birthday during the series/tournament. How the age will be calculated for him?
I have some doubts under this topic,
The age of the player is not determined during the world cup. It is determined on 1st of September before the world cup. E.g. For ICC U19 World Cup 2014 the age of the players was determined based on 1st September 2013. That means any player must be under 19 on 1st Sept. 2013 to be qualified. You can see some players like Vijay Zol, Sanju Samson were over 19 during U19 WC 2014. But they were under 19 on 1st Sept. 2013.
Also to note, maximum age of 19 is applicable for players of Full Member countries only. For players from Associate and Affiliate Member countries the maximum age is 20 (probably due to limited number of cricketers).
Source: Age Determination Policy for ICC Under 19 Cricket World Cup PDF
To clear the doubt players must be under 19/20 at midnight (in the country of birth). E.g. at changeover from the 31st August to the 1st September.

Published/updated: May 2009

The Microsoft Windows based desktop has been a fact of life in the mainstream business environment for so long now that it is often just accepted as a given. Some organisations, however, have been actively exploring and indeed successfully deploying alternatives, and the Linux based desktop is one of these. Based on candid warts and all feedback from over a thousand experienced adopters, we take a practical look at the use of desktop Linux in a real world business context.
Desktop Linux adoption is primarily driven by cost reduction
When asked during a recent online survey of over a thousand IT professionals with experience of desktop Linux deployment in a business context, over 70% of respondents indicated cost reduction as the primary driver for adoption. Ease of securing the desktop and a general lowering of overheads associated with maintenance and support were cited as factors contributing to the benefit.
But deployment is currently limited, and challenges to further adoption frequently exist
The majority of desktop Linux adopters have only rolled out to less than 20% of their total PC user base at the moment, though the opportunity for more extensive deployment is clearly identified. In order for Linux to reach its full potential in an organisation, however, it is necessary to pay particular attention to challenges in the areas of targeting, user acceptance and application compatibility.
Selective deployment based on objective targeting will yield the highest ROI and acceptance
Rolling out Linux to power users, creative staff and highly mobile professionals can represent a challenge from a migration cost, requirements fulfilment and user satisfaction perspective. However, the needs of transaction workers and general professional users with lighter and more predictable requirements can be met cost-effectively with Linux without running into the same user acceptance issues. With groups such as this typically accounting for a high proportion of the user base, there is a clear opportunity to deploy desktop Linux selectively. Optimisation of the desktop estate is therefore likely to be achieved through a mix of Windows and Linux in most situations.
Linux desktop roll out is easier than expected for properly targeted end-user groups
Those with experience are much more likely to regard non-technical users as primary targets for Linux. The message here is that in practice, Linux is easier to deploy to end users than many imagine before they try it. For the majority of application types, including office tools, email clients and browsers, there is a strong consensus that the needs of most users can be met by native Linux equivalents to traditional Windows solutions. Where this is not the case, thin client or browser based delivery and/or one of the various emulation or virtualisation options are available.
A focus on usability reflects a maturing of thinking
In line with the acknowledged importance of a good user experience, usability is now the most sought after attribute of a Linux distribution. Together with the emphasis on cost reduction already seen, this suggests a maturing of attitudes in relation to Linux, shifting the previous focus on pure technical considerations to a more balanced view of what really matters in a business context. This observation is significant when reviewing the mainstream relevance of the desktop Linux proposition.
