We review the radiometric ages of the 16 currently known Martian meteorites, classified as 11 shergottites (8 basaltic and 3 lherzolitic), 3 nakhlites (clinopyroxenites), Chassigny (a dunite), and the orthopyroxenite ALH84001. The basaltic shergottites represent surface lava flows, the others magmas that solidified at depth. Shock effects correlate with these compositional types, and, in each case, they can be attributed to a single shock event, most likely the meteorite's ejection from Mars. Peak pressures in the range 15 – 45 GPa appear to be a "launch window": shergottites experienced ∼30 – 45 GPa, nakhlites ∼20 ± 5 GPa, Chassigny ∼35 GPa, and ALH84001 ∼35 – 40 GPa. Two meteorites, lherzolitic shergottite Y-793605 and orthopyroxenite ALH84001, are monomict breccias, indicating a two-phase shock history in toto: monomict brecciation at depth in a first impact and later shock metamorphism in a second impact, probably the ejection event.
Crystallization ages of shergottites show only two pronounced groups designated S1 (∼175 Myr), including 4 of 6 dated basalts and all 3 lherzolites, and S2 (330 – 475 Myr), including two basaltic shergottites and probably a third according to preliminary data. Ejection ages of shergottites, defined as the sum of their cosmic ray exposure ages and their terrestrial residence ages, range from the oldest (∼20 Myr) to the youngest (∼0.7 Myr) values for Martian meteorites. Five groups are distinguished and designated SDho (one basalt, ∼20 Myr), SL (two lherzolites of overlapping ejection ages, 3.94 ± 0.40 Myr and 4.70 ± 0.50 Myr), S (four basalts and one lherzolite, ∼2.7 – 3.1 Myr), SDaG (two basalts, ∼1.25 Myr), and SE (the youngest basalt, 0.73 ± 0.15 Myr). Consequently, crystallization age group S1 includes ejection age groups SL, SE and 4 of the 5 members of S, whereas S2 includes the remaining member of S and one of the two members of SDaG. Shock effects are different for basalts and lherzolites in group S/S1. Similarities to the dated meteorite DaG476 suggest that the two shergottites that are not dated yet belong to group S2. Whether or not S2 is a single group is unclear at present. If crystallization age group S1 represents a single ejection event, pre-exposure on the Martian surface is required to account for ejection ages of SL that are greater than ejection ages of S, whereas secondary breakup in space is required to account for ejection ages of SE less than those of S. Because one member of crystallization age group S2 belongs to ejection group S, the maximum number of shergottite ejection events is 6, whereas the minimum number is 2.
Crystallization ages of nakhlites and Chassigny are concordant at ∼1.3 Gyr. These meteorites also have concordant ejection ages, i.e., they were ejected together in a single event (NC). Shock effects vary within group NC between the nakhlites and Chassigny.
The orthopyroxenite ALH84001 is characterized by the oldest crystallization age of ∼4.5 Gyr. Its secondary carbonates are ∼3.9 Gyr old, an age corresponding to the time of Ar-outgassing from silicates. Carbonate formation appears to have coincided with impact metamorphism, either directly, or indirectly, perhaps via precipitation from a transient impact crater lake.
The crystallization age and the ejection age of ALH84001, the second oldest ejection age at 15.0 ± 0.8 Myr, give evidence for another ejection event (O). Consequently, the total number of ejection events for the 16 Martian meteorites lies in the range 4 – 8.
The Martian meteorites indicate that Martian magmatism has been active over most of Martian geologic history, in agreement with the inferred very young ages of flood basalt flows observed in Elysium and Amazonis Planitia with the Mars Orbital Camera (MOC) on the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS). The provenance of the youngest meteorites must be found among the youngest volcanic surfaces on Mars, i.e., in the Tharsis, Amazonis, and Elysium regions.

Dylan Thomas
In The Beginning - Poem by Dylan Thomas
In the beginning was the three-pointed star,
One smile of light across the empty face,
One bough of bone across the rooting air,
The substance forked that marrowed the first sun,
And, burning ciphers on the round of space,
Heaven and hell mixed as they spun.
In the beginning was the pale signature,
Three-syllabled and starry as the smile,
And after came the imprints on the water,
Stamp of the minted face upon the moon;
The blood that touched the crosstree and the grail
Touched the first cloud and left a sign.
In the beginning was the mounting fire
That set alight the weathers from a spark,
A three-eyed, red-eyed spark, blunt as a flower,
Life rose and spouted from the rolling seas,
Burst in the roots, pumped from the earth and rock
The secret oils that drive the grass.
In the beginning was the word, the word
That from the solid bases of the light
Abstracted all the letters of the void;
And from the cloudy bases of the breath
The word flowed up, translating to the heart
First characters of birth and death.
In the beginning was the secret brain.
The brain was celled and soldered in the thought
Before the pitch was forking to a sun;
Before the veins were shaking in their sieve,
Blood shot and scattered to the winds of light
The ribbed original of love.

I desperately need an external drive I use for media (specifically mp3's for iTunes purposes) to bear the drive letter F as it does on my PC.
I've successfully installed Windows 7 via Bootcamp on my iMac running 10.6.7, but when I connect my external hard drive in Windows, it is assigned the letter G. I tried going in to Windows disk management to reassign its letter but am unable to as F is assigned to a "removable drive" on "Disk 2" and can't be changed. Here's a screenshot of how it looks in Windows disk management:
I have nothing else connected to the computer. I tried renaming the OS X partition from "E" to "Z" hoping that whatever's taking the "F" letter would be reassigned but nothing changed.
All I want is to have the drive letter "F" free so I can assign it to my external hard drive.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Alabama troops returning from Iraq and
Afghanistan will now get a booklet to help them deal with post-war
stress and readjusting to family life.
Gov. Bob Riley unveiled the 63-age Reintegration Action Plan on
Thursday. The booklet will be given to all returning troops from
Alabama. It includes information to help service members make a
successful transition.
A Pentagon task force last year reported that nearly half of all
Army National Guard soldiers who served in Iraq or Afghanistan
reported psychological problems when they came home.
Riley said the new booklet will help troops better understand
the readjustment process, and it recommends places to get help.

Are you planning to travel in Korea? One of the most convenient and best ways to travel between cities in Korea is by rail. Buses can be unreliable because of traffic, but it is never the case when traveling by rail! (Koreans are mega good at keeping on schedule). In Korea, trains operate on a fixed schedule, which allow passengers to arrive at their destination in a brisk 😀
Before you go on your adventure throughout Korea, know which train you want to take. There are three types of trains:
1.) 'KTX' Express Trains – Price is high ↔ travel time is FAST ↔ moderately comfortable
2.) *Saemaeul Train (새마을) – Price is moderate ↔ travel time is MODERATE to LONG ↔ very comfortable
3.) *Mugunghwa Trains (무궁화) – Price is low ↔ travel time is LONG ↔ moderately comfortable
*Non-express trains, aka slowpoke trains.
Ticket prices vary on which train you travel by! If you are broke and want to save money, KTX trains will not be your best bet (requires a lot of $), whereas the Saemaeul and Mugunghwa trains will be cheaper (longer travel times :().
There are two main railways in Korea: the Gyeongbu Line connecting Seoul to Busan, and the Honam Line from Yongsan Station in Seoul to Mokpo. Other railroads include the Jeolla and Gyeongjeon lines, which reach areas such as Yeosu or Changwon.
It's also worthwhile to note the "KR Pass," which is an EXCLUSIVE railway pass for foreigners which allows unlimited use of trains, including all KTX express trains. Isn't that one heck of a deal?! 😀 Of course, you only get a certain number of days (one, three, five, seven, or ten day passes available).
Oh! But there's a catch to it: passengers using the pass aren't designated general seating on all thee types of trains during the major Korean holidays and peak seasons, such as Lunar New Year's Day, Thanksgiving Day, etc; however, standing room is offered. So make sure you do TONS of leg stretching done! 😛
→ 1 day: Adults – 58,200 Won, Children (4-12 y/o) – 29,100 Won
→ 3 day: Adults – 84,600 Won, Children (4-12 y/o) – 42,300 Won
→ 5 day: Adults – 127,000 Won, Children (4-12 y/o) – 63,500 Won
→ 7 day: Adults – 160,400 Won, Children (4-12 y/o) – 80,200 Won
→ 10 day: Adults – 185,100 Won, Children (4-12 y/o) – 92,500 Won
• NORMAL Pass: Adults and children, Children under the age of 4 ride free of charge.
• SAVER Pass: For groups of 2 – 5 people. **Each group member's information (full name and passport identification) must be given at the time of reservation**
• YOUTH Pass: For passengers holding a valid International Student ID Card.

1.) Seoul Station (서울역) – You'll probably be going here for most of your domestic traveling in Korea. Seoul Station is the starting point of the Gyeongbu Line, a duet track line that connects directly from Seoul ↔ Busan. The major train stations on Gyeongbu Line include Daejeon, Singyeongju, and Busan Station. Many other rail lines start directly from Seoul Station, except for the Honam line, which travels to the southwest part of Korea!
→ Telephone: +82-1544-7788
→ Directions: Seoul Station (Subway Lines 1, 4, AREX, and Gyeongui Lines), Exits 1 and 14.
2.) Yongsan Station (용산) – Yongsan Station is the start of the Honam Line (travel to southwest of Korea), another dual track similar to that of the Gyeongbu Line. This connects Seoul to Mokpo (목포). Major stations on Honam Line are Nonsan, Gwangju, and the Mokpo stations. The Jeolla Line from Yongsan to Yeosu via Iksan line is also currently up and running. Be sure you check your ticket to make sure you go to the right station!!!
• Telephone: +82-1544-7788
• Directions: Yongsan Station (Subway Line 1).
3.) Yeongdeungpo Station (영등포) – Yeongdeungpo Station covers the passenger demand in the southwest area of Seoul (for you lazy folks that don't want to go to Seoul Station :P). At Yeongdeungpo Station, all non-express trains make stops, and the Seoul-Busan KTX train stops at the station twice a day.
• Telephone: +82-1544-7788
• Directions: Yeongdeungpo Station (Subway Line 1).
Remember to plan accordingly! 😉 If you have any questions or any concerns, shoot us a comment below in the section below ↓ Happy riding

Dark-Painted Entry
More recently, I painted my front entryway in this deep eggplant color. This is a space that gets no direct sunlight, so trying to keep it bright is not really important. Instead, as people enter the apartment they first experience a dark and cozy cocoon, which makes the transition into the living room's open space and light much more dramatic. The color contrast helps the living room appear larger than it actually is.

LOOK: "Supergirl" Introduces Superman in First Family Photo
Start Time: 07:00PM End Time: 09:00PM
The Cartoon Art Museum welcomes Steve Lafler on Wednesday, July 25 at 7:00pm as he and CO2 present Ménage a Bughouse, a 400-page volume collecting Lafler's trilogy of Bughouse graphic novels, Bughouse, Baja and Scalawag, previously released on the Top Shelf imprint. Lafler will discuss his graphic novel trilogy and sign copies of the book for museum patrons. This event is free and open to the public.
About Bughouse:
Bughouse is the story of Jimmy Watts and his band of jazz playing bugs. The character driven story is set in a stylish insect-noir world, invoking an indigo-toned Manhattan of the early 1950s. Be-bop is king, and the alluring substance "bug juice" threatens to destroy the players against a backdrop of romance and intrigue.
Lafler puts the creative life and the pitfalls of addiction under the microscope in this tour-de-force collection, tossing his name into the ring for contention as the Great American Cartoonist.
"I was inspired by The Autobiography of Miles Davis as well as the movie adaptation of William Burroughs Naked Lunch" quips Lafler. "The post-war Be-bop jazz and Beat literature scenes of New York called to me as an apt setting for an extended work".

Cast: Isabelle, Sledge Hammer, Junior King, Cameron Jones, Julie Night, Boz, Ana Nova, John E Depth, Ariana Jollee, Sean Michaels, Katja Kassin
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Gonzo
Stock if you have a thriving interracial and/or Evolution trade.
Not quite sure what particular vision of racial equality Martin Luther King Jr. had in mind when he gave his famous "I have a dream" speech, but it probably wasn't integrated porno. Nonetheless, that doesn't stop director Tom Byron, who can never be accused of not having a good sense of humor, from excerpting it over the credits of his latest black men/white women anal effort.
The five suck/fuck/sodomize scenes for the most part are solid, but could have stood a bit more energy to kick 'em up to the next level. The most wank-worthy feature Katja Kassin, Ana Nova and Ariana Jollee, who performs in the title's only threeway/d.p., and who takes its most glistening, copious facial. The rest of the hot, but kinda under-achieving female cast includes Cameron Jones, Isabelle and in the bonus scene on the disc, Julie Night, who can be way wilder than she is here.
Even so, pre-nom Black Up That White Ass 2 in the new Best Interracial Title category.

Metcalf, Barnett win Sun Country Championships
Lake Amistad once again played host to 142 Sun Country anglers who qualified for the 2002 season finale. This week- long event culminated with a banquet and awards presentation held at the Ramada Inn In Del Rio.
Each angler, regardless of where they finished in the standings, received a Castaway rod, a package of Mad Man lures, a stick of Basswax fish attractant, and a Lucky Craft crankbait.
This year's payback was also one of the largest to be seen in this area. Over $46,000, a Ranger boat and a Chevy Suburban were presented to the top 38 teams. Some teams came from Colorado and Arkansas.
Feral Hog: Rob Leivo of Amarillo added a little bacon to his deer burger opening weekend, harvesting this 150-pound feral hog near Albany.

There were 24 places paid out in the regular tournament, along with 10 places paid to those who qualified for the Super Team and four in the Ranger Cup.
First place overall went to longtime Amarillo tournament angler Jack Metcalf, paired with his nephew Scott Barnett. Together they cast spinner baits on wind blown points to become this year's big winner and the proud owners of a new 519 Ranger boat along with a Ranger Trail trailer. Randy Heston and Damon Admire were second followed by Chuck Rizuto and George Banker.
This year saw a new twist with the addition of the Super Teams. The top anglers from each division during the regular season got a shot at an added purse along with a Sun Country/Ranger Boat championship jacket.
Randy Massucci and Rod Haselhoff finished fourth overall, but were first in the Super Team. This added money brought their total winnings to $6,000.

State publishes weekly waterfowl report
In an effort to give migratory bird hunters a ballpark view of what to expect during an upcoming trip, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department offers a weekly migratory game bird hunting report.
In its second season, the TPWD weekly hunting report models the state agency's weekly fishing report, which has been providing information about fishing conditions at most major freshwater lakes and coastal bay systems to Texas anglers for more than 20 years.
Like the fishing report, which combines factual data like water temperatures, lake levels and water clarity with anecdotal information from avid anglers, the weekly migratory bird hunting report gives sportsmen an overview.
The report, which goes out on Wednesdays, is available on line (http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/news/migratory.htm). Also available on that Web page are links to related information for migratory bird hunters, including season dates and bag limits, zone maps and recent news releases. The weekly hunting report will continue through the middle of February.
Man pays hefty fine for mulie buck
Herschel Glen Brawley, 67, of Wink, who had been convicted of road hunting and hunting/possessing a mule deer after the close of the season, was ordered on Oct. 22 by a Travis County District Court Judge to pay almost $9,000 in civil restitution and attorney's fees to the state, an amount derived in part by using the value of the animal.
The 6x6 mule deer buck, was killed in Winkler County in 1997 and scored 191 Boone and Crockett points. The criminal side of the case was settled the following year. Brawley paid more than $500 in fines and court costs.
At the time of the offense, Ward County Game Warden Robert French had gotten a tip about the illegal hunting incident and caught Brawley with the deer Dec. 30, 1997.
It was two weeks after the close of the season. The road hunting charge Brawley was convicted of was, at that time, a Class C Misdemeanor but has since been changed to a Class A, which carries stiffer penalties.

In Reply.—Dr Zuerlein correctly points out that heparin solution may dilute blood gas samples and lead to decreased Pco2 values. In our study, however, the heparinized 1-mL syringes contained 50 U of lyophilized heparin (Aspirator syringes, Marquest Medical Products, Englewood, Colo); thus, no dilutional effect would have occurred.
Although we are unaware of any effect of lyophilized heparin on blood gas values, any such effect would have been uniform in our study because prepackaged syringes were used. Thus, such an effect would not be a factor in the scatter demonstrated in our results.

So?, thats a pretty disappointing number, thats home run pitch speed. He better have pinpoint accuracy, and have a bunch of junk that he throws with it.
In high school i was clocked at 86 mph.....and i was like he 4th-5th slowest pitcher on the team. 86mph two seam tho, not four seam, so it had alot of movement and cut in on the hands (or cut away from left handed hitters)

I think the thread starter was trying to say that Kaepernick is a tremendous athlete (which you can see at QB). About his baseball life-
"He was a two-time all-state baseball player in California and was listed as a draftable prospect on Major League Baseball's website in the class of 2006. He earned Northern California athlete of the week honors as a pitcher. He was reported to throw a 92 mph (148 km/h) fastball as a senior in high school, as reported during Kaepernick's first college football start in 2007 against Boise State[3] He was also a member of the Brewers Grey squad in the 2005 Area Code games. During his senior year, Kaepernick pitched two no-hitters in high school play. He also turned down numerous scholarship offers to play baseball at many notable NCAA programs, instead taking his lone football scholarship offer to play quarterback at Nevada.[citation needed]. In his senior year of high school, Kaepernick had an ERA of 1.265 with 13 starts and 10 complete games. He finished the year with an 11-2 record with 97 strikeouts and 39 walks.
2009 MLB DraftIn the 2009 Major League Baseball Draft, Kaepernick was drafted in the 43rd round by the Chicago Cubs.[4] Kaepernick decided that he wanted to continue to play football at the University of Nevada and chose not to sign with the Cubs."

It's pretty well known. His dad made him promise to play baseball professionally once his college career was over if he didn't get drafted by an NFL team.

I remember them clocking McNabb's passes at around 55+MPH, the figured it would be equivalent to him throwing a bball around 90+MPH. They did it with some other players too however I can't remember how fast their passes were.

'Dragon Tattoo' Costume Designer Joins With H&M for Lisbeth Line
"The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" costume designer Trish Summerville has collaborated with H&M for a 30-piece clothing collection inspired by Lisbeth Salander, the black-clad computer-hacking investigator protagonist in the movie adaptation of the best-selling Stieg Larsson mystery series.
"Lisbeth has a ferociousness and fearlessness about her; she does not stand idly by but rights the wrongs," said Ms. Summerville, who created both the costumes for the film and the H&M collection. "In that sense women can identify with that, they can feel empowered," she added.
H&M, a chain owned by Hennes & Mauritz AB of Sweden, said the clothes will appear in 100 stores internationally and online on Dec. 14. Sony Pictures is releasing the film Dec. 21.
The collection revolves around Lisbeth's "key garments," a well-worn leather jacket, hooded sweatshirts and leather motorcycle pants, according to Anna Norling, H&M's head designer for Divided, a division of the retailer. "The look is very wearable and spot-on trend," Ms. Norling added.
H&M is creating a two-day pop-up shop/cyber café in New York featuring four Sony Vaio laptops that can be "hacked" allowing the hacker to place their picture atop a mannequin that has an iPad for a head.
The collection has met some resistance. Blogger Natalie Karneef, who identifies herself as a rape victim, posted an open letter to the fashion retailer on her website last week shaming the company for trying to emulate Lisbeth, who has a history of sexual abuse. Ms. Karneef highlighted the short denim skirts that are part of the collection.
"We don't stand behind the violence or the harshness but the look is very cool," said Ms. Norling.

|"Blackest Night" teaser
The DC Nation panel at the Emerald City ComiCon was a lively affair this year, with many interesting announcements and a lively question-and-answer session that provided insights to DC Comics and the overall comic book industry. DC was represented in Seattle by a large group of panelists led by Senior Story Editor Ian Sattler. Other participants included editor Michael Siglain, artist Philip Tan, and writers Eric Trautmann, Greg Rucka, Kurt Busiek, Gail Simone and Jimmy Palmiotti.
Ian Sattler began by plugging DCâs new blog, The Source. Recently, the blog revealed two new âBlackest Nightâ teaser ads, a âFlash: Rebirthâ preview (a title which, Sattler noted, has since sold out), and a preview of Greg Rucka and J.H. Williamsâ upcoming run on âDetective Comics,â complete with a bonus page.
Rucka then jumped in and told attendees that âeven if you hate my writing; even if you hate having the word âwomanâ following bat-; buy this comicâ because the art by J.H. Williams is âunbelievable.â He mentioned how fortunate he is to work with fantastic artists, and offered his âThe Questionâ co-feature with artist Cully Hamner as another example of his luck.
âCo-featureâ became a recurring refrain during the panel, as everyone â panel members and attendees â were reminded not to call DCâs upcoming back-up stories as, well, back-up stories, but to instead call them âco-features.â Ian Sattler then added he was fined a quarter for every time he said âback-up.â
Rucka also teased fans about his upcoming âSuperman: World of New Kryptonâ #4, saying that the book would include some guests with glowing green rings. He then quickly moved on to âAction Comicsâ and talked about all the trouble the character Ursa is causing in that book. âThere is something really vindicating about writing Ursa throwing other Kryptonians around like they are made of tissue paper,â Rucka laughed.
Sattler then moved on to Palmiotti, who said heâs been keeping busy with âPower Girlâ and âJonah Hex,â both of which he co-writes with Justin Gray. He told attendees that they can look forward to Jordi Bernet art in âJonah Hexâ #42, Paul Gulacy art for #43, and then a six-issue story beginning with #44 with art by Cristiano Cucina that âpretty much puts every Hex character weâve had in the book to work. Itâs the first time weâve done a six-part story, and in order for us to do it we felt we pretty much had to blow up the world.
|"Blackest Night" teaser
âItâs basically Hex vs. Turnbull from the original series in the 70s. Itâs one of Hexâs main bad guys and is actually what the film is using. We do it first before the movie, so we can ruin the film for everyone.â
Palmiotti then jumped to the topic of âPower Girlâ and mentioned the bookâs artist Amanda Conner, who also happens to be his wife. âAmanda was perfectly made for Power Girl. The love is on every page,â he said.
According to Palmiotti, Executive Editor Dan DiDio said he wanted âa big superhero book and we gave it to him. Unfortunately, Amanda had to pay for that.â He indicated it wreaks havoc on his home life when he writes things as labor-intensive as ââ¦and now Power Girl has to pull Manhattan out of the ground.â
Palmiotti also let everyone know that he and Connor will be producing a âWednesday Comicsâ story about âSupergirl with a couple of little furry friends.â âWednesday Comicsâ is the oversized weekly anthology that will follow the weekly âTrinityâ when it concludes later this year. As for the âfurry friends,â panel members and attendees laughed and were curious if the phrase was some kind of double entendre. Palmiotti assured them all that his and Connorâs story featured âno donkey sex.â
Palmiotti said that if there was anything in it that readers didnât like, it was DiDioâs fault. He then added that DiDio to blame for everything readers donât like at DC Comics, and instructed panelists to say âItâs Danâs faultâ for anything attendees complained about. Sattler happily complied with a âDanâs fault!â
It was then brought to everyoneâs attention that Dan DiDio was seated in the audience. âIâm sitting with the people I like!â the editor shouted.
Sattler then joked, âBut he told me he was going out for cigarettes three years ago.â
Gail Simone was next on the microphone, and she began by talking about âSecret Six.â She said issue #8 will contain the appearance of âTiny Sixersâ â the Secret Six drawn in the vein of âTiny Titans.â This would be followed by a âBattle for the Cowlâ issue featuring Catman and Bane. She then mentioned that Jeanette â a character she created with artist Nicola Scott -- would be very busy in an upcoming arc. âWe have some very scary, disturbing stuff with her coming up,â and added, âIf you thought Junior was bad, forget it. We have stuff coming thatâs so much creepier and scarier, you wonât even remember Junior.â
|"Power Girl" debuts in May
Kurt Busiek then took a turn and talked about the coming to the end of âTrinity.â âWe knew going into it that by the time we got to the end weâd be making the deadlines by the skin of our teeth, but weâre doing it.â
As for how the book ends, Busiek said, âI will tell you that weâre going to destroy the world, but weâre going to destroy the world in issue #49â¦and thatâs how weâre making the deadline on the rest of the book.â
Busiek told fans that if there was anything they didnât like in âTrinity,â he was the one to blame. Although Sattler tried to get Busiek to use the âDanâs faultâ mantra, Busiek said there were only two things DiDio had requested for the book. One involved Busiek wanting to use Barry Allen for a plot point, but he was asked to use Wallyâs dad instead. And the second item is in issue #52, so he couldnât reveal that to attendees.
Eric Trautmann then briefly talked about his upcoming miniseries, âJSA vs. Cobra: Engines of Faith.â He said one of the biggest challenges was writing the huge cast that makes up the Justice Society of America. Trautmann also indicated that DC was allowing him to âpush the envelope with this series,â although âthere is no donkey show.â
Sattler then turned to Busiek and asked him if that particular act was the secret of âTrinityâ #52? Busiek replied, âItâs not a donkeyâ¦â
The panel was then turned over to the fans for questions, the first first of which being one that nobody saw coming. A reader pointed out that he had just read the Absolute Edition of âWatchmen,â which was printed in China; a Premiere Edition of âJLA,â which was printed in the United States; and a monthly DC title, which was printed in Canada. He then asked that in light of the current economic situation in the U.S., would DC Comics consider printing all their books in the United States?
While Sattler tried to think of a response to this question, Greg Rucka jumped right in and said that they should look to General Motors for a solution. âInstead of making cars, GM will make comics.â
Sattler then pleaded, âStop reading the indicia.â
|"Action Comics" 876 on sale next week
The next attendee had a more typical question and asked Rucka why the Green Lanterns would be sent to New Krypton in issue #4 of his âWorld of New Kryptonâ series. Rucka played out the way the Guardians of OA might react to a new planet full of people with the powers of Superman. Essentially, theyâd yell, âJORDAN!â¦and bring back-up.â
Rucka then said that Green Lantern Hal Jordan would go to New Krypton, and that his companions would consist of John Stewart and Sodam Yat â the Daxamite Green Lantern. Rucka then explained how Hal might try to talk to his old friend Superman: âEverythingâs cool, right Kal?â And while Zod would want to know more about the appearance of Green Lanterns, Kal would be begging Zod not to embarrass him in front of his friends.
Next it was asked if the âWorld of New Kryptonâ would intersect in any way with the âBlackest Nightâ event. Ruckaâs only response to this was to say that âSupermanâs on Earth in August.â
Continuing with the questions about New Krypton, an attendee wondered if Supermanâs new setting meant the possibility of a new love interest for the Man of Steel. Rucka responded, âNo, heâs married.â When the fan tried to explain further why a love interest might be an interesting possibility given Supermanâs new set of circumstances, Rucka replied, âHeâs married. This is not Marvel.â
Another fan asked Rucka if anyone from New Krypton would be getting a power ring from OA. âWhat are you trying to do? Unbalance the DCU? Itâs bad enough a Daxamite has one,â Rucka laughed.
Busiek followed that up with, âThere goes my plans for Hal-Elâ¦â
|Pages from "Action Comics" 876
A question was then asked about Free Comic Book Day, which occurs on May 2 this year. Sattler answered that DCâs free book will be âBlackest Nightâ #0, an all-new original story written by Geoff Johns. This was followed by the fan requesting Johnsâ presence at the con next year, which received an enthusiastic response from audience members. âGeoff is actually in our offices right now, and the door is locked. We left a bowl of water out and one light on. But weâll try to bring him next year.â
The recently announced âWednesday Comicsâ was the next topic queried. Busiek said he is writing a Green Lantern story, and Sattler expressed his enthusiasm for the pages heâs seen, particularly a Kamandi story that is being drawn by Paul Pope.
Another fan asked, âWhereâs the second half of âWhatever Happened to the Caped Crusader?ââ Palmiotti interrupted, âI just downloaded âWolverineâ â itâs at the end of it!â
When the chuckles died down, Dan DiDio took a turn at the microphone. âMy first question is for Ian: why did you tell me the panel started at 4:30?â This received a burst of laughter from the fans, considering the panelâs 3:30 starting time.
DiDio next mentioned the fact that Aquaman was heavily discussed and pitched at last yearâs ECCC, so he wanted to know the status of Aquaman. Sattler, in turn, asked fans if they saw the most recent âBlackest Nightâ teaser ad, which showed a black-and-white picture of the deceased Aquaman seemingly come back to life as a scary zombie-like creature. Attendees responded positively, to which Sattler said, âSo there, Dan.â
|Pages from "Action Comics" 876
This prompted DiDio to ask Sattler for some âBlackest Nightâ spoilers. Sattler reminded the room about the three-issue miniseries beginning in August: âBlackest Night: Superman,â âBlackest Night: Batman,â and âBlackest Night: Titans.â He then announced an addition three 3-issue series beginning in November: âBlackest Night: JSA,â âBlackest Night: Wonder Woman,â and âBlackest Night: The Flash.â
With this, DiDio seemed content and allowed the next attendee to the microphone. However, this fanâs question provided one of the more awkward moments of the panel. âWhy didnât you give Superman to Mark Waid?â he asked.
Rucka quickly jumped in and said, âMark didnât take it. Iâm serious.â
âWell, heâs the one that told me to ask,â the fan countered.
âI gotta tell you, I love Mark dearly and heâs a friend, but Mark didnât take the job,â Rucka said, closing the door on the subject and then âshooingâ the attendee from the microphone.
The next query that followed wasnât any easier to answer, but provided some interesting insight to showbiz. A fan mentioned the new writing âdealâ Marvel Studios is offering, and how the studio will be using comics writers to write their films. He suggested that DC might do the same. While DC doesnât have any official say in Warner Bros.â (their parent company) decisions regarding films, Palmiotti quickly jumped in to clarify the points of the fanâs statement. â(Marvel) is not saying that theyâre taking Marvel guys who write comics and making them write movies, what theyâre doing is making a group of writers write all the Marvel movies.â
|Pages from "Action Comics" 876
âThey did say that Marvel writers can be considered for those jobs,â Busiek added.
âYeah, if they want to take a pay cut,â Palmiotti countered.
Simone looked at him surprisingly, to which Palmiotti said, âIâm serious.â
âIâm just in charge of getting the books out,â Sattler said. âEven if it means calling China every day.â
The audience responded in laughter and the panel then concluded.

Renew support for adult educationJuly 10,2013
Renew support for adult education
This July 23, I ask fellow residents to join me in voting to renew Berlins longstanding support for Central Vermont Adult Basic Educations free education instruction for our neighbors. For many years, Berlin town residents have consistently committed $1,200 in town meeting appropriations to support the free adult basic education and literacy services provided to Berlin community members by Central Vermont Adult Basic Education.
This past March, although CVABE had provided all of the required documentation in advance of the towns submission deadline, the organizations special appropriations request was inadvertently omitted from the Berlin town ballot. As a result, town residents were not able to act upon the CVABE appropriations request at that time.
To rectify this oversight, the Berlin Town Select Board has added the CVABE appropriations request to the ballot for an upcoming vote on Tuesday, July 23, when the town will also be voting on zoning regulations.
As a fellow Berlin resident, and CVABEs executive director, I assure you the town of Berlins past allocations to the organization have always supported Berlin residents.
CVABE, a nonprofit organization, helps an average of 16 Berlin residents per year teaching reading, writing, math, computer literacy skills and/or English as another language. CVABE helps adult and young adult students who are working to achieve a high school credential and prepare for employment, college and/or technical training. In addition to a small, highly qualified paid teaching staff, CVABE engages and supports community volunteers in providing services to Berlin residents.
For more than a decade, Berlin voters have granted CVABEs $1,200 request, which represents a modest fraction of the organizations cost of providing education services to people in our town. As a result of CVABEs programming over the years, many residents in Berlin are now living more independently and have gained or improved employment. Many who are parents have been able to better support their childrens academics, reducing intergenerational illiteracy. Our whole community benefits from this service.
CVABE is most grateful for the town of Berlins support.

Jaguar isn't the only premium brand that's got a new four-wheel-drive saloon on its books, because BMW has just launched its 3 Series xDrive in the UK.
Customers on the Continent have been able buy all-wheel-drive 3 and 5 Series models for decades, but this is the first time they've gone on sale here. The xDrive will initially only be available with a 181bhp 2.0-litre petrol engine.
The electronically controlled transmission normally sends 60 per cent of the drive to the rear and 40 per cent to the front. However, if the system detects any slip, a multi-plate clutch centre differential can send up to 100 per cent of the torque to the axle with the most grip.
In everyday driving, you'd be hard pressed to detect the four-wheel drive working. That means you get the same beautifully balanced, engaging handling that marks out rear-wheel-drive BMWs.
Yet when conditions are slippery, the extra traction is obvious. Where the standard car's stability control warning light would be flickering wildly, the confidence-inspiring xDrive simply grips hard and powers through the corner.
Elsewhere, it's standard 3 Series, which means you get the same roomy and beautifully built cabin, useful 480-litre boot and a decent haul of standard equipment, including Bluetooth and dual zone climate control.
Externally, the only clue to the car's all-wheel-drive underpinnings is a small xDrive badge on the tailgate.
Prices start at £27,400 for the 320i SE xDrive. That's a £1,535 premium over the standard rear-wheel-drive model, but £3,405 less than the equivalent Audi A4 quattro.

text: I have never liked weather. Or trick room. The simple fact is, I don't like the pokemon normally found on such teams. While I originally built my teams off of my top favorites, (Volcarona, Scizor, Metagross core anyone?), I found that using my favorites is not a viable strategy. As my play style evolved, I eventually switched to pokemon I enjoy USING rather than just liking. I shifted it around, and found a balanced team that is fun to play with, and wins over half the time.(24/26) I am currently 1563 on the OU ladder. Tornadus-Therian (M) @ Flying Gem Trait: Regenerator EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP Jolly Nature - U-turn - Acrobatics - Superpower - Toxic Tornadus is an excellent pivot on my team. His fast U-turns and ground immunity are extremely helpful on such a fairly fragile team. The physical set takes opponents by surprise, and acrobatics does massive damage to any pokemon, but especially the fighting types (I HATE CONKLEDUR!) that plague my team. While those are the main two moves he uses, superpower adds coverage, and Toxic is for bulky psychics. Starmie @ Life Orb Trait: Natural Cure EVs: 252 Spd / 252 SAtk / 4 SDef Timid Nature - Recover - Ice Beam - Thunderbolt - Hydro Pump Starmie loves switching on bulky waters and jolting sense into them. She also enjoys crushing heatran, and revenging dragons. She is also bulky enough to switch into must resisted attacks. And with her BoltBeam coverage, she is redundant with genesect, so if they take one out, they still have to deal with the other, usually at full health. She is also useful to absorb status. Genesect @ Choice Scarf Trait: Download EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd / 4 Atk Mild Nature - U-turn - Flamethrower - Ice Beam - Thunderbolt I love bug types. I had to have at least one on my team, and what bug better than genesect? Aside from being the coolest legendary in the game (Come on, its a PURPLE PREHISTORIC GIANT CYBORG BUG WITH A CANNON!), he is mainly used as a lead and revenge killer. With his awesome U-turning pivot, and his great coverage, he is a reliable check to much of the metagame. Breloom (M) @ Life Orb Trait: Technician Shiny: Yes EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP Jolly Nature - Bullet Seed - Mach Punch - Spore - Low Sweep I used Breloom before it was cool. While his subpunch set is awesome, technician changes Breloom from an undefeatable force of annoyingness, to a mighty killer, capable of crushing all in its path. Mach punch is awesome, epic revenger, etc... Bullet seed demolishes bulky waters, Spore is a free shut down button, but Low sweep is his specialty. With low sweep, once he scares out the fighting weak stuff, low sweep makes up for his lower speed, and is REALLY powerful. And it really helps with the sporing. Heatran @ Air Balloon Trait: Flash Fire EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 HP / 4 SDef Modest Nature - Fire Blast - Earth Power - Stealth Rock - Dragon Pulse At a glance, my teams looks a bit fire weak. Heatran deals with that nicely. He not only stops fire, but is a perfect Heatran counter. Most Heatran I encounter don't have air balloon, allowing mine to switch in and get them. And, seeing as he forces lots of switchs, he can set up stealth rock. He would also be great at dispatching Kyurem-B... If I ever faced one. I have only encountered ONE. You would think the lower ladder would be full of them. I mean, i have encountered several Electivire! Terrakion @ Expert Belt Trait: Justified EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 SDef Jolly Nature - Close Combat - Stone Edge - Swords Dance - Quick Attack Terrakion don't care. It can be a bit of a pain to get him in, but once he is in, he crushes everything in his path. Priority can be a pain, and he can only rarely keep up a boost, but who cares. CC and SE are really all he needs to crush everything. So what do you think? Any tips on how to improve my team any?

How to Enroll
When do I enroll?
You may enroll your child any time the Center has space available; however, spaces typically become available at the start of a new quarter. Enrollment priority is given to SCC students, faculty, and staff, and to siblings of currently-enrolled children.
The Parent-Child Center holds open enrollment on the first Monday of:
- August (fall quarter)
- December (winter quarter)
- March (spring quarter)
- June (summer quarter).
Enrollment begins at 9 a.m. on a first come, first served basis. The center opens at 7 a.m., so early birds can put their name on a list (in order) and return at 9 a.m. You must be present at 9 a.m. to keep your place in line.
What is the process?
On open enrollment day you will need to complete a Payment Agreement form and a Requested Hours form. You need to know the schedule you're requesting and your student ID number or SSN. The non-refundable registration and emergency kit fees are due the day of open enrollment. These forms and fees are required to hold your child's spot at the center. All other paperwork will be sent home with you to return at least one-week prior to your child's first day.
Please feel free to contact the Center at the end of the week prior to an open enrollment to get an idea of how many spaces will be available.

1st Day Packet Forms
This year we will be trying something new at Arnold. All required paperwork will be turned in during our Registration Days, September 2nd and 3rd. Stay tuned for more information. All forms will be available to download from this website.
In case you were not able to attend the Common Core Presentation at Arnold Elementary on last year, Ms. Lang has made the presentation available for parents to review. Here is the PowerPoint Presentation.
Expect Respect –
At Arnold Elementary we strive to ensure that all students feel safe and confident on campus. Last year, we introduced Chirp the Bird to help us spread the message that we all need to "Expect Respect". The hope is that Chirp's message will help prevent issues of teasing and bullying on campus. Also, Chirp's message to "Stop-Walk-Talk" provides kids with tools to use if they find themselves in a bullying situation. Please be sure to let us know if your child is experiencing any form of bullying on campus so that we can address it immediately.

However, since upgrading the Meteor Slides plugin from 1.3.1 to the newest 1.3.3 the slider has stopped working. I have it activated by adding a widget to the sidebar settings, after the installation of 1.3.3 the slider still shows on the pages, however it sticks on the first image and does not transition.
Any help would be appreciated, is it possible to roll back to earlier version?

Strauss backs Broad and Cook
England captain Andrew Strauss could lead his team into the Ashes this winter on a record-equalling run of success but there were still a couple of clouds on the horizon following today's nine-wicket win over Pakistan.
The result put them 2-0 up in the npower series and represented a sixth successive Test victory as Strauss and Jonathan Trott each made 53 not out to pass a modest target of 118 - but only after Alastair Cook had failed again, registering his seventh successive score under 30 since March.
The behaviour of Stuart Broad was also a bone of contention, following his £3,000 fine from the International Cricket Council for 'throwing the ball inappropriately' at Pakistan batsman Zulqarnain Haider.
Strauss, however, appears to have no significant concerns on either count and hopes the fine can be put behind him.
"It was one of those situations where the bowler throws the ball back at the batsmen often - but in this particular case, it didn't look good. He understood that he overstepped the mark and he has paid the price for it.
"But what I would say is that generally over the summer he has been outstanding in terms of the way he has gone about his business - so let us just hope this is a one-off incident.
"He is maturing - and when you mature you learn from mistakes. I am very comfortable in my own head that this will be a one-off situation. We have to remind ourselves all the time that there are lines there that you don't want to overstep. Stuart received a timely reminder of that.
"You want aggressive characters in your dressing room and guys who want to grab the game by the scruff of the neck and have a bit of fight about them.
"So it's always that managing of where the lines are and making sure people don't overstep those boundaries."
As for vice-captain Cook, a central plank in England's planning for the Ashes and beyond, Strauss continues to express huge confidence in his opening partner's capacity to regain top form.
"Opening the batting in Test cricket can be tough at times - and when you're down on confidence it can be exploited more than other areas in the batting line-up," he said.
"But Alastair Cook has played some outstanding innings for England in the past.
"He's a very valuable member of our side, and I have every confidence he will come back and play some valuable innings in the near future.
"He's a top-quality opening bat, and three Tests don't change that."
Strauss can be involved only in an advisory capacity when it comes to picking Cook or anyone else in the squad for the third Test at the Brit Insurance Oval, which starts on August 18.
He said: "I'm not a selector, but he has my full backing because I honestly think a big score is around the corner."
Irrespective of Cook's contribution, England are in position to wrap up series victory - and then equal their best ever sequence of eight Test wins by the end of this month if they are successful at Lord's as well.
"Any time you win six in a row, you are pretty happy with yourselves," added Strauss.
"But we are still conscious there are plenty of areas where we need to improve, so we are not getting too carried away.
"The first job is to make sure we win the series next week and then push on from there."
England had to work hard yesterday as Pakistan fought back in the second innings, and Strauss agreed: "It's a reminder that Test cricket is a tough game, and you don't have everything your own way all the time.
"It doesn't matter how good you are. As the wicket died a bit, we were forced to work very hard for those final wickets. Thankfully, we came out the other side."
Strauss' opposite number Salman Butt must somehow try to rally his team - with the anticipated addition of veteran batsman Mohammad Yousuf but the confirmed absence of injured seamer Umar Gul at The Oval - in time to stay in the series.
He believes he has seen enough on occasions, but not yet consistently, to conclude Pakistan are capable of much better.
"Since we arrived in England, there have been glimpses that this side can win," he said.
"But unless and until we get a good show in all three aspects - batting, bowling and fielding - it will be difficult."
The bowling of Mohammad Asif, Mohammad Aamer and Saeed Ajmal has been Pakistan's strength.
But they have let themselves down in the other disciplines, Butt estimating 14 wicket chances were missed in the field in Birmingham.
"We need to work hard on our fielding and our batting," he added.
"The guys themselves realise we need 20 wickets to win a Test match - and if we miss 14 in a Test match that is going to be hard.
"A culture change in one series is virtually impossible.
"It is the individual who needs to understand what has happened, and only that will change them.
"Change in culture can come afterwards; change has to come in the individual first."

STUDY DESIGN.: Prospective, observational study. OBJECTIVE.: To evaluate biomechanical changes associated with cervical arthrodesis using a cylindrical titanium cage. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA.: Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) is the "gold standard" for treating cervical disc disease. In an effort to avoid the morbidity associated with autogenous bone graft harvesting, cervical cages are used to achieve fusion. The cages should allow for restoration and maintenance of natural disc height, angulations, and displacements at the operated levels. METHODS.: Fifty-four patients underwent standard ACDF using a "stand alone" cylindrical cage implant. Lateral radiographic views of the cervical spine were obtained before surgery, on the first day postoperatively, and at 12 months postoperatively. Disc height, vertebral alignment, angle of lordosis, and range of motion at operated levels were quantified prospectively by distortion compensated Roentgen analysis. RESULTS.: At 12 months postoperatively, solid fusion was achieved but the cylindrical cage failed to preserve disc height, prevent kyphosis, and preserve natural intervertebral alignment. We observed significant cage subsidence and malalignment. CONCLUSION.: We noticed several unfavorable outcomes when performing an analysis of radiographic parameters after ACDF using a cylindrical titanium cage. Thus, the use of a "stand alone" cylindrical cage in ACDF should be considered with caution.

Orascom Construction Eyes Acquisition as Profit Jumps
Orascom Construction Industries is looking at acquisitions after the Egyptian builder posted a better-than-expected second-quarter profit as it gained from the purchase of Royal DSM NV's Agro and Melamine businesses.
Net income increased to $144 million from $102.3 million a year earlier, the Cairo-based company said in a statement on its website today. That beat the $130.79 million median estimate of three analysts, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Royal DSM agreed in March to sell two unprofitable agrochemical businesses to Orascom Construction for 310 million euros ($418 million), allowing the Egyptian company to acquire additional customers for fertilizers in Europe. Sales in the second-quarter rose 23 percent to $1.1 billion, the country's biggest publicly traded builder said today.
"We are looking at opportunities particularly in the field of fertilizers," Nassef Sawiris, chairman and chief executive officer of Orascom Construction, said by telephone after the results were released. "We will not go after anything huge, but we will look at acquisitions that are swallowable."
Sawiris said fertilizer prices were expected to remain "firm" for the rest of the year after rising in July and August.
New Orders
Orascom secured $678 million in new construction work in the second quarter and expects strong demand for infrastructure projects in the Middle East, especially after electricity blackouts in the region this month, Sawiris said. Infrastructure work accounted for 64 percent of the construction group's $6.3 billion backlog, the company said in the statement.
"We think there will be another round of power works, a major round of water projects and there will be a major round of road works," Sawiris said. The company will also bid for tenders in the fourth-quarter after new legislation for Public-Private-Partnerships in Egypt, he added.
The shares gained 1.2 percent to 256.32 Egyptian pounds at the 1:30 p.m. close in Cairo, valuing the company at 53 billion Egyptian pounds ($9.3 billion). The stock has advanced 2.7 percent this year, compared with a 4.2 percent increase in the benchmark EGX 30 Index.

Frisco, TX, Sept. 12, 2011 – The Texas Legends are pleased to announce the formation of a new "Children's Medical Center" section at all Legends games. Thanks to the support of Children's, the Legends are excited to be able to offer season tickets (24 games) for the limited availability rate of $180 ($7.50 per game). Furthermore, 10% of all sales in the "Children's Medical Center" section will go back to support Children's, which as a not-for-profit is the seventh largest pediatric healthcare provider in the United States.
"It is our mission to not only provide entertainment to the community, but also be an asset that gives back to causes such as Children's Medical Center," Texas Legends owner Donnie Nelson commented. "Our Legends players, coaches, and dancers visited Children's last year, and it is truly our pleasure to be able to partner with the hospital to not only bring a smile to the face of the kids in the hospital, but also help raise awareness and funds to support their mission. In honor of Children's providing care for kids up to the age of 18, we have established a small number of season tickets available for $180."
Children's provides patient care ranging from simple eye exams to specialized treatment in areas such as heart disease, hematology-oncology and cystic fibrosis. In addition, Children's is a major pediatric kidney, liver, intestine, heart and bone marrow transplant center. As the primary pediatric teaching facility for The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas, the medical staff at Children's conducts research that is instrumental in developing treatments, therapies, and greater understanding of pediatric diseases.
"Children's Medical Center is thankful for the Texas Legends support of our patients," said Pete Kline, president of the Children's Medical Center Foundation. "Community support is critical to Children's being able to fulfill its mission of providing the best care possible to our patients."
Season tickets for the "Children's Medical Center" section can be purchased by calling the Texas Legends offices at 1-214-469-0822 or by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com. Mention "Children's Medical Center" section for access to this limited availability offer.
"Nights like that are rare for our family. The game was amazing. My son would not even take a restroom break for fear of missing something. Again, thank you for a wonderful evening filled with great memories for us."

The objective of the medical teleconsultation system presented in this paper is to demonstrate the use of the World Wide Web (WWW) for telemedicine and interactive medical information exchange. The system, which is developed based on Java, could provide several basic Java tools to fulfill the requirements of medical applications, including a file manager, data tool, bulletin board, and digital audio tool. The digital audio tool uses point-to-point structure to enable two physicians to communicate directly through voice. The others use multipoint structure. The file manager manages the medical images stored in the WWW information server, which come from a hospital database. The data tool supports cooperative operations on the medical data between the participating physicians. The bulletin board enables the users to discuss special cases by writing text on the board, send their personal or group diagnostic reports on the cases, and reorganize the reports and store them in its report file for later use. The system provides a hardware-independent platform for physicians to interact with one another as well as to access medical information over the WWW.
