Create Plenty
(503) 757-9887
PORTLAND, OR, October 19, 2011 – As the ban on plastic bags goes into effect this month in Portland, Create Plenty prepares a plastic trash art exhibit in creative recognition that this ban is just the first of many steps to rid the environment of single-use disposable plastic. Forty-five artists from the United States and Mexico are contributing artwork to be featured at the Square Affair opening art sale on Friday, November 4 at 100th Monkey Studios, from 6-9 PM. This art will be available for sale or by silent auction in support of the non-profit's school education programs of Create Plenty's International Plastic Quilt Project (IPQP). Work from nationally re-knowned artists Dianna Cohen, Virginia Fleck and Cheeming Boey will be among the collection and will be available for sale online beginning November 5.
Among the exhibit collection: From Los Angeles, Cheeming Boey's famously decorated styrofoam cups; a brilliant mandala made by Virginia Fleck of Austin, Texas; and works by the Pech Cetz brothers and their students in Merida, Mexico. The group is also honored to include Dianna Cohen, co-founder of the Plastic Pollution Coalition and one of the first widely known artists to reuse plastic in a large portion of her work. Many local artists and friends of the project are also contributing to the sale. More information can be found about these artists at www.createplenty.org.
Eleven schools and over 400 students participated in the 2010-2011 Project by creating over 150 new "quilt squares" which have become a permanent part of the traveling exhibit. This awareness-through-art campaign teaches environmental education to K-12 students in a way that engages them to be part of the solution to curb plastic pollution. The program de-emphasizes "recycling" and instead instills concepts of "reduce" and "reuse" and inspires students to seek changes in their local communities.
The auction will allow Create Plenty to expand the program to more schools across the nation and around the world. "Plastic pollution is a global problem and we plan to connect participating schools with like-minded students, artists and other organizations working on research and advocacy," says Cheryl Lohrmann, founder and director of Create Plenty.
Create Plenty's International Plastic Quilt Project is a traveling community art project that holds over three hundred squares made from single-use plastic contributed by students, artists, and many others. It is inspired by the massive success of the Names Project Aids Memorial Quilt and aims to promote awareness and solutions to single-use disposable plastic items. Eighty percent of plastic found in the ocean arrives via lakes and streams.

|The Damn! Moment of Week 1
|The good, bad, ugly from Week 1
|Match Game: The Stones meet the NFL
|Who was "The Man"
in Week 1?
By Scoop Jackson
Page 2 columnist It's that moment. A play. A call. It happens every week during the NFL season. Sometimes, it sneaks up on you. Sometimes, it hits you square. It's that moment when you're watching a game -- maybe live and in person, maybe on the plasma -- and something happens that makes you put those four letters together and say DAMN! Now, depending on the circumstances or who you're pulling for when it happens, there can be a modifier before or after the adverb. "Hot ... " " ... him!" "I'll be ... --ed." Damn! This week, it isn't Randy Moss's second-quarter catch Thursday night to begin his new era in Oakland. It isn't Joe Horn's 25-yard catch from Aaron Brooks with 19 seconds left to set up the field goal that gave the Saints an emotional win at Carolina. It isn't the 71-yard run by the rook, Cadillac Williams, against the Vikings, the run that might set the stage for the Bucs' return to their 2002 status. It's none of that. The moment is much bigger. And for the next 20 weeks, it always will be. Say there's a team that underachieved so much last year that damn near every sports writer and analyst wrote it off like CEOs write off miscellaneouses. They finished 6-10 last year, and opened the season against one of the teams those same writers and analysts predicted might win the whole thing. Say they were set up to take an early L.

Aaron Glenn's late pick is good for this week's four-letter word.
It was never supposed to get to this point. Not when the Cowboys play the Chargers. Not on the road. Close in the fourth quarter? Keyshawn Johnson catching a touchdown pass?Damn! Down 28-24, it's nation time for the Chargers. Less than two minutes left in the game and unable to get past the 40-yard line, Drew Brees needed a miracle. And he needed it on fourth-and-14. Hut. Hut. He finds Eric Parker. Enough. Game almost over. First down. Nothin'. Second down. Nothin'. Third down. Nada. Game and goal. There's 30 seconds left and once again, Brees needs a miracle. He three-steps back off the snap. Reads the dee. Sees his receiver cut toward the end zone. The ball leaves his hand. Touch ... No. It's tipped by Aaron Glenn! Caught by Aaron Glenn. Intercepted by Aaron Glenn. Of the Cowboys. Oh ... Damn! Game over. Dallas wins. On a goal-line stand from seven yards out. All preseason, the worries were how Bill Parcells and Drew Bledsoe could coexist, how the offense could produce enough points to pull out a "V." 'Cause until Sunday, we all slept on the strength of the defense. Damn! How did this happen? Damn! Is this how the Cowboys season is going to be? Damn! Is Dallas the new Baltimore? The new Tampa Bay? Damn! Where was Antonio Gates when San Diego needed him? (Oh, yeah, sittin' out a one-game suspension.) There's a moment in every football game when you say "Damn!" That moment defines a game. Any game. Every game. That moment was just the first this year. Scoop Jackson is an award-winning journalist who has covered sports and culture for more than 15 years.

So pick a writer you'd be most interested in seeing write your favorite title, or pick a writer you wish would come back to write that title. Include why, if at all possible. For an added bonus, pick a writer you wish would stop writing a title if you are dissatisfied with their job. Again, state why and try to be constructive, and avoid just torching the writers ("he sucks cuz he sucks") and such.
I'll start: I honestly wish that Rick Remender would return to Venom for Flash Thompson's swan song. Cullen Bunn is a great writer, and has overall done a good job, but Remender's run was something special. He really developed Flash into the character he has been used as.

The site I'm trying to make is located at http://www.cinematerror.com and I'm using the Zombie Apocalypse template.
I'm not very good at webdesign so I'm sorry if these questions are silly. I've tried to figure it out using google and whatnot, but seem kind of locked on it.
1) I cannot figure out how to edit the "Posted on <insert date>" field underneath the post titles. I would prefer it to be in smaller size, italic and preferabily with a little less margin up to the post title.
2) If I enter a post there is two navigation options that both points back to the previous site, both above and underneath the content. I would like to remove both, but also can't figure out where those options are.
Anything to point me in the right direction would be extremely helpful, thank you for reading :-)

Jeff Eastham has announced his bid for the office of District Judge for Taylor, Green, Marion and Washington counties.
Eastham has practiced law for more than 19 years. While his practice is varied, Eastham says it focuses on those areas specific to a district judge - juvenile (both as advocate for child and parent and as prosecutor), criminal (both defense and prosecutorial), probate and civil actions (both defense and plaintiff).
Eastham says he has a great understanding of those cases that come before District Court, from both sides.
Editor's Note: Two candidates have filed for the 1st District magistrate seat, but neither will appear on the Primary ballot this May. Both advance to the General Election this November. Incumbent James Jones, a Republican, will face Democrat Henry Lee Colvin.
Three candidates are seeking the 2nd District magistrate seat this election year, though only two will face Primary opposition this May.
Now through April 10, most Kentucky households will receive a replacement 2010 Census questionnaire designed to increase Census mail participation, get a better count for the state and save taxpayers the higher cost of sending out Census takers to collect information.
A Campbellsville man has been arrested and charged with using another person's debit card to make purchases without consent.
Paul David Rucker, 36, of 940 Old Summersville Road was arrested Sunday, March 28 at 1:36 p.m.
According to Rucker's arrest warrant, he is accused of using a woman's debit card last June without her permission to make $215.46 in purchases at local businesses.
In another warrant, Rucker is accused of writing two checks to Papa John's, knowing that they wouldn't be honored.
E.ON U.S. has unveiled an online outage map system that will relay outage information to its customers and the general public.
Hosted on www.eon-us.com, the new map will show near real-time outages across the service territories of the E.ON U.S. subsidiaries, Kentucky Utilities Co., Louisville Gas and Electric Co. and Old Dominion Power. The map will be a permanent fixture on the site, offering outage information year-round.
A Campbellsville man has been charged with second-degree burglary in an indictment recently unsealed by a Taylor Circuit Court judge.
A grand jury may seal an indictment if there is a possibility that the accused will try to evade police.
Indicted was Roger D. Dotson, 25, of 9489 Saloma Road.
Bond was set at $25,000 cash. If convicted, Dotson could be sentenced to as much as 10 years in prison.
- An indictment is a legal accusation only. It does not establish guilt.
Nominations are being sought for the 2010 Excellence in Entrepreneurship Awards.
These awards seek to celebrate success in entrepreneurship by recognizing businesspeople and entrepreneurs in 55 Kentucky counties — including Taylor County — who have created and are managing a successful enterprise.
A Campbellsville man accused of leading police on a chase in February has been indicted on charges stemming from the incident.
Damiamo Romonda Brown, 23, of 703 N. Columbia Ave. was indicted last Tuesday by a Taylor County grand jury.
He was charged with first-degree fleeing or evading police, theft by unlawful taking more than $500, four counts of first-degree wanton endangerment, resisting arrest and driving on a suspended or revoked operator's license.
The charges stem from a Monday, Feb. 22 incident.
It's a sure sign that spring is here. With the May Primary approaching, campaign signs are sprouting as fast as spring flowers, and officials are laying down the dos and don'ts.
State, city and county officials say that signs cannot block drivers' line of sight or hinder maintenance crews. Signs also can't be placed on public property, such as Miller Park.
And with the large number of candidates seeking office this year, officials expect to see more signs than usual.
As part of First United Methodist Church's Good Friday service, church members portraying Jesus and two Roman soldiers walked from the intersection of Main Street and South Columbia Avenue to the church just before noon.
Mark Hillard was Jesus and, Kyle Salsbury, left, and Chris Goodson portrayed soldiers.
The procession was followed by a brief service at the church and a luncheon.
The event is sponsored by the United Methodist Women and all proceeds will go toward their mission work.

This article reviews problems in diagnostic pathology and molecular cytogenetics of soft-tissue tumors. Also discussed are the origin of soft-tissue sarcomas and the molecular basis of effective target therapy for sarcomas. Molecular cytogenetic analysis of tumor-specific chromosomal translocations and associated fusion gene transcripts offers a useful adjunct to the diagnosis of soft-tissue tumors, but recent studies have indicated a growing number of fusion gene variations in each tumor type. In pleomorphic sarcoma/malignant fibrous histiocytoma, the alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) mechanism may result in formation of anaphase bridges and marked nuclear pleomorphism. The histogenesis of soft-tissue sarcomas has been a matter of controversy. In the present experimental model using s.c. injection of 3-methylcholanthrene in C57BL/6 mice pretreated with bone marrow-transplantation from green fluorescent protein (GFP)-positive green mice, the bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells as well as the tissue-resident mesenchymal cells in the peripheral soft tissues are possible originators of sarcomagenesis. Little is known about a molecular basis of target therapy for sarcomas. Platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) enhances the invasive activity of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) cells through platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) phosphorylation, whereas imatinib mesylate inhibited such activity, suggesting that targeting PDGFR-β may result in the establishment of novel treatment for MPNST. In addition, emmprin is a transmembrane glycoprotein on tumor cells that stimulates peritumoral fibroblasts to produce matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), playing a crucial role in tumor progression, invasion and metastasis. The MMP upregulation mechanism mediated by tumor-associated emmprin may be a potentially useful target in anti-tumor invasion therapy for sarcomas.

It's great stuff. Iran is a fascinating country. Much more interesting than the fluff she usually gets assigned. I'm not really sure she's cut out to be an airhead style reporter for a daily paper. She needs to write some books. With articles like this, she's actually making slowing down over the P-I worthwhile.
I was interested to see that in her Iranian passport, which they printed yesterday, she's still listed as living in Ottawa, issued in February, which can't possibly be true. Maybe it's impossible to have an Iranian passport with a Great Satan address on it?
I have family from Iran and have been reading her series with rapt attention. She IS a wonderful writer! I am going to start following her work more closely from this point forward. I am also sharing the links with my family.
Parvaz's ace socio/politico/cultural smackdowns are the reason I get the P-I on Saturdays. It's a shame she's in the Lifestyle section on Saturday, when Joel Connelly is on the front page of the local section. She could be a Frank Rich in-training if they'd give her half a chance.
It's amazing to hear ignorant right-wingers talking about how we need to do "nation building" in Iran. They had civilization over there when the ancient Greeks were still crawling out of their caves.
I doubt a chador is going to cover the chip on her shoulder. She's one of those self-important writers who fancies herself as edgy and is under the impression people care about what she's "Popping Off" about this week.
That was one of the most vividly written features I've ever found in a Seattle paper. Persian eyebrows or not, the woman's got talent!
I've always liked her columns, even when I occasionally disagreed with the premise of them. I think this series has definitely shown that it's time the editors moved her out of the fluffy features section and into news/editorial. She's too good a writer and observer to be stuck doing "lifestyle" columns forever.

It has already been reported that Leto refused to break character during the film, and sent his co-stars icky gifts like a dead pig, courtesy of "The Crown Prince of Crime."
Leto's process, while seemingly strange, was his way of paying tribute to what he calls "the role of a lifetime," he explained.
The result is, "a sick, twisted, but I think very loveable Joker," said the Oscar-winning actor. "This character has been written about, acted, interpreted, reinterpreted, re-imagined for 75 years. So to be asked to take the baton and run with it was quite an honor and a responsibility."
A lot of work also went into "Mr. J's" chilling laugh. Each actor who's played the role has put his own spin on it, and Leto was no different.
"I remember walking the streets of New York, and in Toronto where we were shooting and I would just laugh out and see how people would react to it. And when I started honing in on this laugh, I realized it was the one where people would turn around and be like, "What the hell is that?!"

"Polychrome figures around the town" Top 5 Page for this destination Auxerre Things to Do Tip by angiebabe
Auxerre Things to Do: 63 reviews and 195 photos
Adding character to the lovely place also are polychrome figures of notable personalities from around the town - particularly the ones made by local Auxerre artist Francois Brochet who has a display of works in the Auxerre Museum.
Notables such as the local writer Nicolas Restif de la Bretonne in 1806, where he began his professional career in the neighbourhood with the regions great printer Francois Fornier, whose statue sits together with his wife near the clock and bell tower.
And also one of France's famous 20 th century poetess Marie-Noel (1883-1967), who lived and worked in Auxerre. Her polychrome statue stands on the other side of the clock and bell tower outside the Town Hall/Hotel de Ville.

The City of Sacramento is now under a mandatory water reduction order, approved by the Sacramento City Council Tuesday night.
Dave Brent from the City Department of Utilities says the volume of water in Folsom Lake is at an historic low -- well below that of the 1976-77 drought.
"The American River watershed is the most critical watershed at the time," he says. "It's a statewide drought, yet the American River is really in a crisis mode as we speak."
The City Council voted 8 to 0 to implement "Stage Two" drought measures that include one-day-a-week lawn watering until early March and fines for wasting water that could run up to $1,000.
By summer, the City hopes to see a reduction of 30 million gallons of water use per day.
The city plans to use Sacramento River water and ground water to get through the summer. The Sacramento River pump station won't be operational until March.
Brent says the city is also in "crisis mode."
"We've established a drought response team just as we would a flood event," he says. "We're going to have an incident command structure with an incident commander, a planning section, a operation section, finance, public outreach."
Brent says people seem to be taking the water crisis seriously.
The city has received more than 300 reports of water leaks or instances of water being wasted this year. At this time last year, the city had received 14 reports.
- Turn off faucet while brushing teeth (2.5 gallons per minute)
- Turn off faucet while washing dishes (2.5 gallons per minute)
- Taking shorter showers (2.5 gallons per minute)
- Run washing machine only when full (15-50 gallons per load). Rebates available i fa resident upgrades to high efficiency washing machine.
- Adding an aerator to sink faucet (5 gallons per day)
- Replacing toilets with a high-efficiency model (1.28 gallons or less per flush) saves approximately 5.5 gallons of water per flush (the City has rebates for customers who replace their toilets as well)
- Fill the bathtub halfway or less (12.5 gallons)
- Fix leaky faucets (15-20 gallons per leak) and leaky toilets (20-50 gallons per day per toilet)
- Following the City's one-day-a-week watering rule this winter, which means you can water your lawn on Saturday or Sunday only (more than 500 gallons per week)
- Using irrigation before 10 a.m. and after 7 p.m. on your watering day (20-25 gallons per watering day)
- Adjusting sprinklers to prevent overspray and water waste (15-25 gallons per watering day)
- Repairing irrigation leaks or broken sprinkler heads (20 gallons per day)
- Use a broom instead of water to clean driveways, sidewalks and paties (8-18 gallons per minute)
- Get an auto shut-off nozzle for your hose (8-18 gallons per minute)

Disappointed today to turn this on. Milwaukee has so little country music. 106.1 plays the same 20 songs with a few oldies mixed in (and about 20 minutes of commercials an hour). 92.5 out of West Bend is great but the signal isn't great. For the market draw that is had I am amazed at the lack of country radio stations here and another one bites it. Oh well. Maybe I am not 'cool' because I don't enjoy music that doesn't come from the heart and is filled with auto tune but this truly stinks.
The last thing Milwaukee radio needs is more top 40 crap. There is so little rock in top 40 these days it is pretty much unlistenable unless you like dance and rap.
My hubby's not going to be happy
Big Buck was the only station that played actual country music. By my last count, there are 4 stations that play the same Pop/R&B Hits format in the area. Radio is run by advertising and I frequented or am familiar with almost all of the businesses on Big Buck. How much thought was put into saturating the market w/ the same genre aimed at kids & young adults that are more likely to have Ipods than radios? The Milw Radio Group should do a better job of protecting the audience of their cash cow Bob & Brian as we don't listen to Urban Pop and have grown tired of the Hog's Zepellin/GunsNRoses/VanHalen format. And at 10:01 AM, when we the B&B audience grab the dial, I believe many, including the hosts themselves, are more likely to tune to Classic Country instead of hearing Knocking on Heaven's Door or Hot for Teacher one more time. I know for sure that Milw's most loyal, hardworking audience isn't looking for more Nelly or Kanye West. I did have my suspicions lately when Big Buck started playing more Toby Keith than Keith Whitley.
So thank you Marketing Genius's, I will now take my loyalty and wallet back to AM 920 The Wolf or more likely Pandora. Good luck with your next format change, have you considered Classic Rock or Pop Country? This town is just itching for more Boston and Rascal Flatts. See you in 6 months....Hide replies
I can't wait to hear "I'm Sexy & I Know It" 50 times a day.
C'mon IWonder99, you and I both know, we'll switch off after the 14th playing of "I'm Sexy", but hopefully they'll overload us on 'Starships', a perfectly inspiring song for young girls that just happens to be about drinking, carousing, not paying rent and spending all your money at the bar. Wait, maybe this is more like Country Music after all....
Terrible decision..........I loved that station. I'm so glad we have another station that plays screeching songs by bad singers who need computer generated help to "sing" about sex. I tuned in last night not knowing about the switch & got to hear "electric crap".
Thanks for nothing....
This was the worst idea. Big Buck Country was the only station to play true country. It was a station that brought families together. BBC was a station that parents and children could go on a 5 hours trip to see grandma and grandpa and still be sain at the end. This Energy (bullcrap) needs to go. Sex, shooting and baby making music does NOT need to take over the radio. That crap is already on to many stations.

I don't like the change one bit. It makes no sense because we have enough of that genre on alot of other stations in the area. they have just ruined all the community good will that they had. My whole family is shifting to 920 the wolf. Bye.
This is absolutely pathetic. First of all, I don't like country, much less "Big Buck" country. And broadcast radio in itself is abysmal. But to add yet another Top 40 station to our market is preposterous from both a music and business sense. Two stations, 103.7 and 97.3, already play exactly the same music, while 99.1 and 100.7 are similar. Let's just keep saturating our market with dance songs devoid of any artistic integrity. Top 40 is worse than it's ever been. And no I'm not a baby boomer harping about "the good old days" (though there would be nothing wrong with that); I'm a 27 year-old who is tired of my peers readily devouring the garbage placed in front of us. Nearly every radio station in Milwaukee is terrible, and most across the country are too. The local music landscape has become so homogeneous it's sickening.
Thankfully, there are now many alternatives to broadcast radio and its tasteless menu. Streaming radio and music sites like MOG give us access to explore solid music. I'd love for broadcast radio--as it is now--to be destroyed entirely. Maybe it would help people to step outside their miniscule boxes and experience music that is moving. Music that stimulates your emotions and intellect, and can be appreciated for greater reasons than "this stuff is hot, bro." Check out classical, jazz, indie, folk, groundbreaking rock of the past, innovative electronica, or whatever. But check out something that has actual musical value. Something which involves artists expressing themselves, innovating, or taking risks. Don't waste your time on worthless "music" that is simply used as a marketing vehicle to promote and/or recycle a marginally talented entertainer.

Criminal Charges May Be Filed In BP Oil Spill
Possible targets for charges include BP engineers and at least one supervisor, according to The Wall Street Journal. Any charges would be the first criminal charges against individual BP employees for the disaster in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010.
NPR's business news starts with possible charges against BP.
INSKEEP: Or more specifically, their employees. Prosecutors may be preparing criminal charges relating to the BP oil rig blowout in 2010. The prosecutor's possible targets are BP engineers and at least one supervisor. They would be the first to face criminal charges as individual BP employees for the disaster in the Gulf of Mexico.
According to the Wall Street Journal, prosecutors may accuse employees of giving false information to regulators about the risks associated with killing the well. But you notice we said prosecutors may accuse the employees. They may also be using the threat of criminal charges to pressure the employees into cooperating.

My new Dell laptop uses Fn+F4 and Fn+F5 to adjust the brightness of the display. How can I remap this to the Fn+Up and Fn+Down key combinations that I'm used to?
Unfortunately, keys cannot be remapped through software. Only hope would be if BIOS allows for remapping of keys but usually that is limited just to and switch.
I am not aware of BIOS that allows for other key combinations to be remapped.
Assuming your using Windows here are a few suggestions.
This is impossible unless you change the hardware of your keyboard, the Fn key isn't seen my any software. When you press such a key together with another a special keycode is sent to your computer, pressing Fn alone does nothing.
But what you can do is to look for a AutoHotkey script which allows you to do this, ask on their forum. ;-)

He went to San Francisco State on an athletic scholarship, planning to be an English and PE teacher.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Call it Godspeed. A priest went sprinting through the streets of Washington, D.C. just before Sunday Mass, to recover collection money that a thief had swiped from the church safe.
Rev. Bill Hegedusich startled congregants at St. Peter's church on Capitol Hill as he bounded through the church door. He said the
bandit took two bags of money, totaling about $125, from an unlocked safe.
The 48-year-old priest, who runs marathons, says he chased the man for about two blocks and yelled at him to return the money. The
man threw one bag on the ground and kept running.
Hegedusich returned with about half the money and celebrated Mass a few minutes late.

|"Red Robin" #1 on sale in June
Since Christopher Yost first arrived as an intern at Marvel Comics back in 2002, his career has enjoyed a meteoric rise thatâs seen him become one of hottest young writers working in the business. And while he has penned a string of hits for the House of Ideas like âNew X-Menâ and âX-Force,â he has never worked for DC Comics.
That changes later this month, when the one-shot âBattle for the Cowl: The Undergroundâ arrives in stores. And thatâs just the beginning for Yost in the Batverse. As DC expands the Bat Family of books in June â following the conclusion of Tony Danielâs âBattle for the Cowlâ â Yost has signed on to write the new series âRed Robinâ with illustrations by Ramon Bachs.
CBR News recently spoke with Yost about the new title and also discussed his television writing career, as well as, his Image Comics miniseries, âKiller of Demons.â
CBR: Without knowing who is behind the mask, maybe you can start of by telling us who is Red Robin?
Christopher Yost: The first time we saw Red Robin, I believe, was in âKingdom Come,â and there he was an Elseworlds, adult Dick Grayson. It was an evolution of Robin. He was kind of becoming a man. He wasnât Robin and he wasnât Batman. He was his own thing. And when that costume appeared in âCountdown,â it was worn by Jason Todd. He had some adventures through the Multiverse in that costume. And lastly, it showed up in the pages of âRobinâ proper, and was being used by The General, who surprised both Tim Drake and Jason Todd by showing up in that costume.
As to whoâs going to wear it now is, of course, part of the mystery. But that mystery will be revealed in the first issue. You wonât have to wait too long to see who is in the costume.
|Also by Christopher Yost, "Batman: Battle for the Cowl -The Underground" on sale April 29
So we find that out in âRed Robinâ #1 and not âBattle for the Cowl?â
Yes, In âRed Robin,â although there could be some strong hints in âBattle for the Cowl.â In much the same way, it is the evolution of the Robin character. And character that could potentially be in the Red Robin costume most likely was Robin at one point. Itâs not Cassandra Cain. I can narrow that down.
So Aquaman is out?
Ooh, thatâs interesting. Youâre getting into spoiler territory [laughs]. This is somebody who thinks that Bruce Wayne is alive. And theyâre going to find him.
If this was a new âBatmanâ #1 or a new âRobinâ #1, a launch would come with a built-in audience. But no one knows who is behind the Red Robin mask, and more importantly, if he is going to resonate with fans.So do you head into the launch of âRed Robinâ with excitement or is it more trepidation?
It is kind of exciting, but at the same time, kind of daunting. You donât have as much to rely on. This isnât like launching âSuperman: World of New Krypton,â that has fans of Superman interested in whatâs going on with New Krypton. Itâs not like launching âBatman and Robin,â Grant Morrisonâs new book. This is definitely something that people are going to take a wait and see approach. And once it comes out who it is, more people might jump in on it.
But Iâve got to tell you, Iâm excited by this book. Itâs got its own feel and flavor. It does take place largely out of Gotham City. And even though it is a Batman family book, this is definitely a quest book. This character is a very motivated person. And theyâre looking for something. And that quest is going to take them all over the world. I guess if we had a model, it would be the something like âThe Bourne Identity.â Itâs got that kind of action and that kind of international feel to it. Youâre going to be running into the same kind of action that youâd expect from a book like âBatmanâ or âRobin,â but taking it outside of Gotham City. And the main characterâs goal isnât necessarily to help people here. Itâs very specifically to find Bruce Wayne.
The first four-issue arc is subtitled âThe Grail.â Is Bruce Wayne the grail?
It has a couple of different meanings. The obvious one is that itâs the search for Bruce Wayne. So yes, in some respects, thatâs the grail. But as it progress, youâre going to see that while itâs the search for Bruce Wayne, itâs also Red Robinâs quest to find himself. And by the time you get past âBattle for the Cowlâ and into âRed Robinâ #1, itâs a character at a crossroads. And the search for Bruce Wayne seems like the thing but it evolves into more.
Is the plan to roll out âRed Robinâ in four and five-issue arcs, or is there a larger story being told here?
|Also by Christopher Yost, "Killer of Demons" #1 on sale now
It is a bigger ongoing thing. Itâs actually plotted out for a year. Itâs essentially a 12-issue story but we donât want to scare anyone. [laughs] From #1 to #4, thereâs a definite structure to it. Itâs almost like the first act. If you pick up the trade, youâre probably going to want to, or at least, I hope youâre going to want to pick up the second one based on the end of the first.
There are certain things set in #1 that are resolved in #4. There is a little bit of closure there. It then spins radically out of control. Itâs exciting in the sense that thereâs a very particular mission. But that mission gets incredibly complicated, incredibly quickly, because Red Robin is not the only person looking for Bruce Wayne.
If you were to look at it as acts, the first act is basically written at this point. The second act is kind of an action/horror movie. And the third act is what brings it all home.
Is Red Robin successful in finding Bruce Wayne at the end of issue #12?
I cannot come up with a good way to answer that. I think people will be surprised at some of the things that happen in this book.
With the book set outside Gotham City, it looks like we wonât see a lot of classic Bat Family characters like Alfred or Commissioner Gordon. Who is featured in the supporting cast of âRed Robin?â
You will see a lot of familiar faces from Gotham, albeit largely in flashbacks. Thereâs going to be supporting cast from the past and the present. But it will be kind of surprising who that supporting cast is. And there is going to be a lot of new characters in this book too.
Any classic Batman rogues figure into âRed Robinâ? Or will Red Robin face new villains?
Both. I can say no more but both.
Canât even tease?
By the last page of âRed Robinâ #1, youâll kind of know. Itâs a big moment.
At the top, you mentioned this first story is 12 issues. Are you planning to stick with the series past âRed Robinâ #12?
Iâll stay for as long as theyâll have me around. After the first 12, it will need to re-invent itself but there are an infinite number of stories to tell.
Youâve been doing most of your comics work at Marvel with bestsellers like âX-Forceâ and âNew X-Men.â How did you get pulled into the new expanded Batverse?
|Also by Christopher Yost, "Killer of Demons" #2 on sale now
The first ongoing book I did at Marvel was âNew X-Menâ with editor Mike Marts. So Mike and I knew each other from that book and we ran into each other at a convention and he had moved to DC and was spearheading the Bat-books and it came up. And through a series of conversations, it fell into place.
Is the plan to have the Bat-books thread together like the Superman books of late?
You will see in âRed Robinâ #1 the connection it has to the other books, specifically âBatman and Robin,â and then it kind of goes off on its own. But I wouldnât be surprised if it weaves back into the bigger picture. Thereâs a few aspects to it that are just very essentially connected to âBatman and Robinâ and that universe and even to âFinal Crisis.â
Ramon Bachs is the artist on âRed Robin.â What can you say about his work?
I think heâs done a great job. The thing that I donât like about him is that he is just so incredibly fast. [laughs] I literally sweat. Every single day a new page comes in and Iâm like, âMan, I have to get another script done.â Iâm looking at art for âRed Robinâ #3 right now. And itâs a crazy fight issue. Heâs really bring his A-game. Itâs very exciting.
You also have the âBattle for the Cowlâ one-shot âThe Undergroundâ coming too. Can you share any details on that one?
Itâs taking place within the confines of âBattle for the Cowlâ and this is basically the villainsâ reaction. Youâve got Two-Face and Penguin and Riddler and Catwoman and Poison Ivy and Harley and all of them just reacting to and surviving âBattle for the Cowl.â Thereâs a lot going on from the villainsâ point of view. Youâve got what happened in Arkham Asylum, which is definitely big news. Youâve got your gang war going on that Two-Face and Penguin are in the middle of. Youâve got a little army of heroes trying to contain everything. But then you also have Batman showing up with a couple of guns and blowing everybody away. Itâs definitely worrisome to the villain community. Itâs a lot of fun. Pablo Raimondi is doing the art, which is just fantastic. That will be the very first thing that Iâve ever put out through DC so Iâm very excited about it.
Are you a long-time fan of Batman?
Absolutely. And actually even though Iâve been writing a lot for Marvel, I actually wrote some of âThe Batmanâ animated series. So yeah, Iâm a Batman fan. Everybody is.
|Pages from "Killer of Demons" #2
What was your first introduction to the Caped Crusader?
Definitely âSuper Friends.â And then, of course, the Adam West show. And as far as modern day, it was probably Alan Grant and Norm Breyfogleâs book, which was great. It blew my mind.
You must be pretty proud to not only be playing in both sandboxes at Marvel and DC but be writing arguably the two most popular characters in comics: Batman and Wolverine?
You know, Iâve never thought about that until now. [laughs] But you know, itâs pretty great to be able to work everywhere. Obviously, Marvel has amazing characters and DC has legendary characters. I also have my Image book. Itâs pretty gratifying to be everywhere. Iâm just kind of shocked that I am. Itâs a pretty amazing and Iâm very grateful to all parties involved.
Can you quickly update us on âKiller of Demons,â your book from Image?
Itâs a three-issue miniseries and #2 just came out. And #3 is going to the printers now. Itâs a supernatural comedy. Itâs about a guy who wakes up one morning and sees demons amongst us. And heâs got a little angel whispering in his ear to âkill them all.â But the demons are things like meter maids, his co-workers and his boss. So the question is, is he just crazy? Did he just lose it? But at the same time, he canât help himself. He feels compelled to act on these urges. And starts killing people. And they can be just normal people or they can be demons from Hell, you just know.
Itâs very much tongue-in-cheek. And itâs hopefully a lot of fun. And I had a blast writing it. The art is done by Scott Wegener, who did âAtomic Robo,â that was nominated for an Eisner. Itâs tremendous fun and thatâs all itâs meant to be. Itâs a lot of fun and Iâm very proud of it.
Oh, I guess we should talk about this little TV writing gig you have on the side too.
Right now, Iâm the head writer of animated series called, âAvengers: Earthâs Mightiest Heroes.â And it is in production right now. Weâre 19 episodes deep into a 26 episode order and itâs going to be amazing. Pretty much every single day I freak out about how much I love the show. Itâs the Avengers. And itâs not crazy armored Avengers. Or itâs not Teen Avengers. Itâs the Avengers you know and love and have always wanted to see. Itâs Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Ant Man, Wasp, Captain America, Hawkeye. Itâs the Avengers. The premise of the show is literally, Avengers, go. There isnât any crazy twist like theyâre in an alternate reality or in the Negative Zone or some bizarre thing. âThere is 40 years worth of Avengersâ stories, start telling them.â
|Pages from "Killer of Demons" #2
And does that launch this fall?
Itâs a little up in the air right now because itâs probably going to launch the same time that the feature film does, which right now I believe is slated for 2012. But since 2012 is the end of the world, who knows?
And then âIron Man: Armored Adventuresâ premieres Friday, April 24. And that is teen Iron Man but donât be scared off by that. Iron Man can be a lot of fun. Itâs one of the most emotionally intense stories that Iâve worked on. Itâs basically Iron Man, as a teen, going through all the things the Iron Man we know and love had gone through, but having to juggle a lot of emotional baggage on top of it. Itâs big problems, big adventure but thereâs definitely love and betrayal and loss and grief and sadness too â the whole nine yards of emotion.
And itâs a villain show too. There are so many villains in it.
Do you love being able to work in both comics and television?
Itâs the best because theyâre both so different. With the shows, the responsibility is massive. Youâre showing these characters to millions of viewers around the world so youâre basically speaking to a broader audience, who doesnât know the history. Because with the comic books, and trust me, I am a this guy, I am the comic book fan through and through, I know pretty intricately 40 or 50 years worth of these guysâ history. Thatâs what I like. But with the show, in general, youâre introducing these stories to kids. And thereâs a great, great thing about that.
Written by Yost with art by Bachs and covers by Francis Manapul and JG Jones, âRed Robinâ #1 goes on sale June 10 from DC Comics.

MARCH: LSD got its name because of its potent psychedelic effects. This is a resilient seed which grows well, in various conditions, to give a high yield plant. This strain is inherently disease resistant. When smoked, LSD produces a natural nutty or woody flavour, with undertones of saccharine musk.This seed is a cross between Mazar and an old skunk variety and as such inherits the true power of skunk through a dominance of indica.
APRIL: Royal Kush, a cross between the famous Skunk #1 and oh-so-potent Afghani, is an Indica-dominant strain favored by patients with such ailments as insomnia, loss of appetite, pain relief, inflammation, nausea and anxiety.As a plant, Royal Kush has extremely long leaves, making for easy light-absorption. She is suitable for indoor as well as outdoor growth
MAY: Holland's Hope is an indica-dominant strain of cannabis that is popular with outdoor growers, due its resistance to mold and pests. The strain first originated in the 1980s, and was one of the first popular Dutch strains.
The strain was one of the first cannabis varieties designed for tough outdoor conditions. This strain was named for its ability to produce excellent results in a wet and changeable summer, giving hope to Holland's outdoor growers
June: Girl Scout Cookies' plants can be grown indoors or outdoors. This strain is more suitable for growers with some experience. You may take some extra care when growing GSC but the effort will pay off in the end. Buds will have a variety of green and purple shades with orange hairs. There is a fresh minty like smell during flowering. It has a mild, but sweet minty spearmint taste with a hint of sweetness. It has a complex taste so reviews may differ.
July: The A-train is a hybrid between Afghani Mazar i Sharif and the clone-only Arcata e-32 Trainwreck. Trainwreck is one of the more infamous plants; many stories surround its beginnings and its name derived from a train wreck.
October: SOUR GRAPE
Arguably on of the best tasting medications around, Sour Grapes also has a potency that few other strains are able to compete with.
The sweet, sour, grapey and candy-like flavor of this Indica-dominant bud is followed by a most euphoric body high that won't land you in a hopeless case of couch-lock but it will make laying down extremely comfortable.
Snowcap is a potent sativa with a nice lemony scent with a hint of menthol. The effects are decidedly cerebral and should trigger creativity, happiness, and a case of the giggles. Believed to be a hybrid of Humbalt Snow and an unknown Haze.
Grape Ape is mostly an indica strain that crosses Mendocino Purps, Skunk, and Afghani. Named for its distinct grape-like smell, this indica is known for providing carefree relaxation that can help soothe pain, stress, and anxiety.
Similar to the likes of Blue Dream, Chemdawg, or OG Kush, the Green Crack strain has become a staple in the cannabis industry. It is a Sativa-dominant hybrid known to be very racy, with genetics linking to Skunk #1 and an unknown strain.
"Green Crack is a Sativa-dominant Hybrid with genetics linking to Skunk #1 (Sativa) and an unknown strain."
This strain's famously compact bud structure, bright burnt orange hairs, and spicy/sweet flavor makes it obvious why Green Crack is so popular among MMJ patients. A good batch of Green Crack will typically produce smooth, sweet tasting smoke that seems to coat your mouth with an intense aftertaste of lemons.
Bruce Banner #3 is a combination of OG Kush (now thought to be Ghost's OG or perhaps the SFV OG) and Reservoir Strawberry Diesel, resulting in a racy and extremely potent Sativa experience. The OG Kush has a heavy influence on the smell, which is spicy and citrusy, with a light, sweet quality that comes through from the Strawberry D
Casey Jones combines an excellent sativa mother, a Trainwreck x Thai, with an outstanding male from Rezdog's Sour Diesel v3 line. The mother originated from Billy Goat Seed's Oriental Express cross. She has a very sweet flavor, and a heady transcendent high.
Killer Purple
Her short, blocky frame screams "Indica", Killer purple defines the meaning of the word. She will weigh you down until you're forced to submit, her midnight purple flowers are a force to be reckoned with. Killer Purple is a pure indica of an unknown origin. Not much is known about this plant since its first appearing in the British Columbia Area in the Early 1990's. She had managed to get into several gardens of leading Washington State cannabis activists and gained popularity quickly for her intense high and ability to turn purple in all weather conditions. Since the rise in seed distribution Killer Purple has become something of an urban legend, unable to survive the competition in most gardens it has become a plant of unicorn like notoriety.
