The Queen of England will meet with some of the survivors of the Virginia Tech shootings.
The Queen is visiting the states as part of the 400th anniversary celebration of the founding of Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement in America.
Twenty-five Virginia Tech students who have recovered well enough to travel are being considered for a visit with the British Monarch.

The UNIX philosophy suggests we built a lot of simple programs that do one thing well and that we do them with text streams. That is, the standard input/output channels are sufficient means of messaging.
Console programs cannot only be piped together, they can also be directed to a file. In doing this, you can essentially queue up messages (text in files) for later processing. This seems to follow a similar model to message queues but without all the sophistication.
Richard P. Gabriel suggests that a key advantage of Unix was that it embodied a design philosophy he termed "worse is better", in which simplicity of both the interface and the implementation are more important than any other attributes of the system—including correctness, consistency, and completeness.
From my perspective, text streams provide about as simple a channel of communication as possible. This would seem to follow the worse-is-better philosophy. Couldn't we thus use console applications and files written to the file system as a poor man's message queue? And if so, has anyone successfully taken and preferred this approach? I am simply wondering how practical/feasible it is to substitute text stream processing for message queues.

Japan's wrestling boss met with an International Olympic Committee inspectors Wednesday evaluating Tokyo's bid for the 2020 Summer Games, but held back from criticising them for the possible exclusion of his sport.
Tomiaki Fukuda was among those who expressed outrage after the IOC executive board recommended last month that wrestling not be included in the 2020 programme.
That proposal prompted protests worldwide with political foes Iran and the United States fighting together for the sport's survival in the Olympics.
Fukuda is both president of the Japanese Wrestling Federation and deputy head of Tokyo's Olympic bid committee, and told the 14-member IOC team Wednesday that his dual roles leave him caught between a rock and a hard place.
"I am in a very, very delicate position now in front of you, IOC members," Fukuda told the group at an arena planned as the venue for wrestling, taekwondo and fencing if Tokyo wins the 2020 Games.
"Therefore I can only say thank you very much" for coming, he said.
Wrestling will now have to battle with seven non-Olympic sports for a spot in the 28-sport 2020 Games programme. The list, including baseball, softball and karate, is expected to be narrowed to three by the IOC executive board in May.
A final decision will be taken at the IOC general session in September in Buenos Aires when the 2020 Olympic city is chosen from contenders Tokyo, Madrid and Istanbul.
Japan's four wrestling gold medallists from last year's London Olympics -- three women and one man, including three-time women's 55kg champion Saori Yoshida -- also met the IOC team on Wednesday.
"I'm praying that wrestling stays in the Olympics in 2020," Yoshida told reporters after the inspectors, including six voting IOC members, left the waterfront arena.
About 300 young local wrestlers also lined the entrance to the arena, with some holding a banner that simply read "Wrestling".
Wrestling has been part of every modern Games, apart from in 1900.
The IOC team was inspecting Tokyo's existing and planned Olympic facilities on the third of their four-day tour. They will visit Madrid and Istanbul later this month.

Peter Gutmann in New Zealand has looked at the problems that Windows Vista's digital rights management (DRM) can cause. Not only Windows users will be affected, it will also cause problems for other operating systems such as Linux and OS X and can potentially threaten your life:
For example the field of medical imaging either bans outright or strongly frowns on any form of lossy compression because artifacts introduced by the compression process can cause mis-diagnoses and in extreme cases even become life-threatening. Consider a medical IT worker who's using a medical imaging PC while listening to audio/video played back by the computer (the CD-ROM drives installed in workplace PCs inevitably spend most of their working lives playing music or MP3 CDs to drown out workplace noise). If there's any premium content present in there, the image will be subtly altered by Vista's content protection, potentially creating exactly the life-threatening situation that the medical industry has worked so hard to avoid. The scary thing is that there's no easy way around this – Vista will silently modify displayed content under certain (almost impossible-to-predict in advance) situations discernable only to Vista's built-in content-protection subsystem.
Actually, the Vista DRM is probably going to cause Microsoft quite a lot of pain in the long term, when you realise how many features are crippled by it, and given that as Peter says, one important point that must be kept in mind when reading the Vista Content Protection specification is that in order to work, Vista's content protection must be able to violate the laws of physics. As his "Executive Executive Summary" says:
The Vista Content Protection specification could very well constitute the longest suicide note in history.

In this monograph the author has correlated the recent developments of the subject of myocardial infarction. This condition, as the author points out in his introduction, is a leading cause of death and consequently deserves the attention of every practicing physician. After an introduction in which the historical background is surveyed, the author summarizes the frequency of infarction in his clinic during the last seven years and correlates it with the reports of other observers. A section on the hemodynamics of the coronary circulation follows, starting with the anatomy of the coronary arteries and including the normal and pathologic physiology, experimental studies on closure of the coronary arteries and the gross morbid morphology and histology of infarction. The rest of the monograph is devoted to the clinical consideration of infarction. This includes the etiology, the clinical picture, the typical symptomatology, the atypical forms of the disease, its usual course, its

On this sub-forum, the ONLY RULE is ONE PARTY, ONE THREAD, where on it, posting is EXCLUSIVE TO ALL PARTY MEMBERS ONLY. It doesn't matter if you feel the urge to rebut on their conversation. If you're not a party member, back off. This is pure politics talk.
When it comes to Political Party Regulation, it is up to the Security Council or future Parliament to enact laws on that. But for now, any party could institute their own rules and party protocols. And it is also up to each nation how will they treat this political party system in RP and OOC. It could be the name of an existing organization or you just remain to be independent. Your choice.

This hotel is old and pretty cool. Haunted is what they say. No events for me.
Also, no A/C. No amenities but a decent enough space to stay.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Majestic San Francisco
Great hotel with charm and class
This hotel is beautiful. It is a great place to stay if you enjoy a room with charm and class. The location is excellent! The street is quiet enough to get a good nice sleep but close enough to walk to almost everything. We had a great time, the staff was helpful and knowledgeable. I would definitly recommend this hotel.
Definitely pay the $19.00 a day to have your car parked in the garage. Parking is just to difficult to find and can sometimes be quite tricky on steep slopes.
Public transportation is nearby, both buses and trolleys. We walked almost everywhere but if you dont plan to do that, definitly buy the all day passes which cover all the types of transportation available. If you do plan to walk it is about a 20 minute walk to Union Square and about a 30 minute walk to fishermans Wharf.
Quiet location with charm in the center of town
I was very happy with our stay at the Hotel Majestic. It was close to the city attractions without the noise of Union Square. The hotel has Jr. suites that are worth the extra expense. This hotel has old world charm with friendly service.
Great Stay! Friendly Service!
Great staff, charming Victorian style rooms, very clean. Breakfast consists of a fruit platter, a choice of cereals, muffins, bagels, toast, and croissants, hard boiled eggs, and oatmeal.
Hotel is located 10 minutes from Fisherman's Wharf (via #47 bus just two blocks away), 10 minutes from Union Square (via 2, 3,4) and is very accessible via BART from SFO.
Surrounding area is residential. Of note: bathtubs are old-style (on four legs), and not ideal for anyone with mobility problems since the tub is quite high off the ground).
Delightful Stay!!!!
Highly recommended and beautiful place. I wanted the best 5 star hotel in San Francisco for Valentines weekend and I chose this place based on the reviews given. Boy am I glad I did, the victorian style is just beautiful. If you can afford it definately go for the one bedroom suite. You get more of homey feeling rather than a hotel feeling. Would I stay there again. You bet!! It is a positive 99%. Okay for the one percent not added was because there is no coffee makers in the room and I'm a coffee lover and prefer the coffee in the room before I step out.
But hey it was avaliable downstairs at the wonderful morning continental breakfast and the workers were very nice!! And for the evenings there is Starkbucks within walking distance. Very nice area, not threatened by the homeless or pan handlers. Short walk to cable cars and convienient bus stop is right out front! Parking is easier to find on the weekdays rather than the weekends on the streets but definately pay the $19.00 day rate rather then getting a ticket. The bellman told me the ticket is $35.00 if you get one! Have a great stay!!!!
It couldn't have been nicer
I picked the Majestic on the basis of the reviews here. I was travelling with my boss, and I was nervous about picking the hotel, since I don't know San Francisco, I didn't know what neighborhood we should be in, and I didn't know whether it would be easy or difficult to get around to the appointments that we needed to go to. The Majestic was perfect. I travel a lot and I have never seen a cozier, more welcoming hotel. It's in a fun and lovely mansion full of bay windows in a very hilly area, so you feel like you're really in SF. The rooms are full of really beautiful antiques, the accessories are luxurious (I loved the good linens and the thick bathrobe), the people are really helpful. The neighborhood is lovely for taking evening walks in, and is near to an area with lots of bistros and intriguing but not too costly restaurants. I really have never seen a more charming hotel. My only regret was that I wasn't conducting a fine romance there, because there couldn't be a more romantic venue. Oh and breakfast is good. My boss adored it too and said that the only thing he would improve is that the shower was a little low for him (he's quite tall). I was ready to move to SF and open up the winter office in the hotel. We were both sad to leave the Majestic.
Beautiful Victorian Hotel
We stayed at the Majestic in early Jan. 2004 while awaiting the birth of my first grandaughter at a nearby hospital. The hotel is beautiful and cozy, full of architectural details and beautiful real and reproduction antiques. The room (a jr. suite) was spacious and nicely appointed. The canopy bed was the most comfortable I've slept on in any hotel. I only wish I had one at home just like it. There are yummy snacks and a few varieties of wine in the afternoon and a very good breakfast in the morning. A cafe or small restaurant would be a nice addition. The parking is a huge bargain, 19.00 a day with 24 hr in-out . The staff was pleasant and helpful. There is a beautiful intimate bar, The Avalon which shouldn't be missed. The only negative things that keep me from going with a 5 is the noise from people walking in the room above. It continued all night on our first night. If I stayed again I would ask for a top floor room. Our room had a lovely gas fireplace that did not seem to work correctly. The directions were unreadable. We could have called for help, but it should be obvious or in the bedside hotel directory.
Everything considered I would stay again!
Exellent Hotel with Delightful Staff
I stayed there last June with my nephews (age 11 and 14). I gota great deal from the internet which included a Junior Suite for aprox $85-90.
The room was great. Every afternoon they had wine and hors douvres available. The bar waiter really kept my nephews feeling welcome with making sure tehre was soda and snacks for them as well. The room inclued a continental breakfast each morning. The staff went above and beyond to make my stay go along great. Location is nice with a bus stop right out the door and both food and theatre right down the street.
One of my best hotel stay was at the Majestic. Charming building, more than just charming and luxurious rooms, wonderful staffs made my stay here one of the best experience I had from a hotel. Located in a quiet residential area, but all the famous spots of town are easily accessable by 5 min. car ride. I'd say I had more pleasant stay here than I did at Mark-Hopkins, or the Fairmont SF.
Trip Back in Time!!
My husband and I rented a Harley motorcycle to tour California for our 25th anniversary. The Majestic was wonderful. The room was spacious and very clean. There is so much history in this building that it took you back in time. It was beautiful and romantic. Everyone was helpful and courteous. Parking was very resonable compared to other places and very safe. (which was important to my husband with the bike) The dining area was only open for breakfast and only half the room was utilized. Somewhat disappointing that dinners were not available, but there is a menu you can order food to your room during night hours. The little touches, like a basket of goodies, a stacked refrigerator, and cookies each morning left on your bed made you feel very important. I would highly recommend and can't wait to return someday.
Wonderful hotel
I almost hate to let the secret out, but these people deserve to be recognized. This place is great! Beautiful rooms, sweet staff, everything about our week there was perfect.

San Francisco day 2
We woke last night to sirens and flashing red lights at 2 a.m. We looked out the window and saw 2 fire trucks and an ambulance parked right under our window.

The trip from Ukiah to San Francisco was dotted with vineyards. Most did not open until 11 am so stopping was not an option, but we were okay with that.

Bought and installed this double oven myself - just needed assistance with lifting old out and new in. Moved from a single wall oven w/ Microwave above to a this double oven. Installed a new stainless microwave w/ vent in place of old vent hood above our gas stove. Only carpentry I had to do was remove the ledge between the old wall oven and microwave (ledge the microwave sat on). Once that was out I trimmed the entire opening to meet the specs of the new oven - doesn't have to be straight and perfect as the oven edges will cover. Be sure to test your wire connection prior to finishing the install. Obviously, turn off the fuse to your oven at your power box. Connect the wiring from the oven to the wiring of your old oven. Turn fuse back on to test that oven is working. Fuse back off and install the wiring back into the wall cavity and cover. Test again! First time I put the wiring into the wall one of the caps came loose and I lost connection. Once wiring installed and tests ok simply lift oven into wall and anchor w/ screws provided. Enjoy!

After several teething troubles including having to return the first oven because when I ran the first high temperature clean to reduce the odor of the new oven I discovered that enamel had chipped off the inside of the top oven at the back. There was no way this could be repaired so the oven had to be replaced (entailing another major disturbance). Then the replacement developed problems with the upper door hinge and also the digital control pad would not work properly, but fortunately these items could be repaired in situ. After that, things settled down, we have had the new oven almost 7 months now and so far so good. On the plus side, this is a really lovely looking oven, it looks beautiful in our kitchen, the lights inside make it sparkle. It cooks well, I have baked and cooked with it and everything was successful. Using both ovens I made a fabulous Christmas dinner, timing all the dishes, keeping casseroles and dishes warm (better than I have ever done before) and generally enjoying the whole (sometimes harrowing) experience of cooking Christmas dinner. Now that I am used to it, I really love this oven. But I DO recommend an extended warranty, the warranty is for one year, if we had had to pay for all the things that have gone wrong it would have been very expensive, it is also terribly inconvenient when things break down. I hope they improve the workmanship because on the whole it is a very nice oven. How I arrived at the three star rating. I would give it five stars for appearance, five for efficiency, four for reliability, (because of the digital remote) and two for workmanship.

Looks nice but not impressed with the performance.
By Lil Red
from Murphy, TX, United States
This oven came with our new house and while it 'looks nice' on both the outside and inside, the performance is not impressive at all. This oven takes up to 20 minutes to Preheat to 350 degrees. This is ridiculous. It should only take an oven 6-8 minutes to preheat to 350 degrees. The User Manual instructs you to remove the extra racks to reduce preheat time but that does not help. Also, the fan runs way too long after the oven is turned off. This is a waste of electricity and in the winter time you are better off opening the door so the warm air heats your home and also makes the annnoying fan turn off sooner. I don't recommend buying this oven.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Top five Bond films
Published: Monday, January 16, 2012 at 2:51 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, January 16, 2012 at 2:51 p.m.
"Bond. James Bond."
The first time a 32-year-old Scottish actor uttered those words was in a small film that opened 50 years ago. Based on a pulp novel by Ian Fleming, " Dr. No" cost around $1 million and featured a group of not-yet stars including Sean Connery, Jack Lord and Ursula Andress. It debuted with no expectations whatsoever.
Yet " Dr. No" went on to gross nearly $60 million worldwide and spawn a film franchise that has produced 22 feature films — the 23rd, " Skyfall," is due this October — with global earnings of more than $5 billion.
What is it about James Bond that has allowed the suave superspy to weather the end of the Cold War, the rise of women's rights, and six different lead actors over the last half century?
For one thing, 007 has always been an insider who acts like an outsider. " At one level, he represents a fantasy of government control in a geopolitical world that has lost its grip on western security," says Christoph Lindner, editor of "The James Bond Phenomenon: A Critical Reader."
" But at another level he also represents a fantasy of escape from the excessive authority and surveillance of government. This tension between control and escape is an important part of Bond's success over the decades."
And then there's the most obvious way in which the films stays current: When it comes to enemies, Bond is always after the villain du jour. " The films have always reflected the times in which they were made," says Glenn Yeffeth, editor of " James Bond in the 21st Century."
" In the '60s, it was Cold War espionage and the beginnings of the sexual revolution. In the '70s and '80s, they became more comedic and fantastical in the era of overindulgence. But the fundamental principles of Bond haven't changed. He is intent on trying to preserve world order."
Perhaps the best way to understand the success of the movies is to examine the films themselves. Here are our picks for the five best James Bond movies of all time:
"From Russia with Love" (1963)
Why It's Great: A cold war spy caper with superbad villains intent on world domination.
Main Villain: Ernst Stavro Blofeld, the consummately evil head of SPECTRE shown only from the neck down as he strokes his white cat. Equally freaky and fearsome — Rosa Klebb (Lenya), the killer with poison-tipped blades concealed in the toes of her shoes.
Bond Babe: Tatiana Romanova (Daniela Bianchi), Russian agent turned bond ally.
Cool Gadget: A special briefcase including a rifle and ammunition plus 50 gold sovereigns, a knife and a tear gas cartridge disguised as talcum powder.
Memorable Dialogue: Tatiana, trying on dresses —" I will wear this one in Picadilly." Bond–" You won't. They've just passed some new laws there."
"Goldfinger" (1964)
Why It's Great: A daring robbery plan, nasty supervillain and his sinister henchman Oddjob (Harold Sakata). Mix that with a female flying corps, one of the best bond title songs (sung by Shirley Bassey) and a terrific final action sequence and you get perhaps the greatest bond film ever.
Main Villain: Auric Goldfinger (Gert Frobe), master criminal who wants to rob Fort Knox.
Bond Babe: Pussy Galore (Honor Blackman), Bond enemy turned ally.
Cool Gadget: Awesome Aston Martin with passenger ejection seat, forward machine guns, hubcaps doubling as tire slashers and other goodies.
Memorable Dialogue: Stewardess — " Can I do anything for you, Mr. Bond?" Bond — " Uh, just a drink. A martini, shaken, not stirred."
"On Her Majesty's Secret Service" (1969)
Why It's Great: George Lazenby is no Sean Connery, but he's OK as Bond, and the film is tight, smart and extremely well directed with killer action sequences.
Main Villain: Ernst Stavro Blofeld (Telly Savalas), doing some strange allergy research involving beautiful women.
Bond Babe: Teresa di Vicenzo (Diana Rigg), who marries Bond but is murdered on their wedding day.
Cool Gadget: Radioactive lint, which acts as a homing device.
Memorable Dialogue: Draco (Gabriele Ferzetti) — " My apologies for the way you were brought here. I wasn't sure you'd accept a formal invitation." Bond — " There's always something formal about the point of a pistol."
"Licence to Kill" (1989)
Why It's Great: Criminally underrated at the time, this is an exciting action film with Timothy Dalton as a nasty, driven Bond out to stop a drug lord and avenge the attempted murder of his friend Felix Leiter (David Hedison).
Main Villain: Franz Sanchez (Robert Davi), South American drug kingpin based on Pablo Escobar.
Bond Babe: Pam Bouvier (Carey Lowell), CIA informant posing as a drug courier who falls for Bond.
Cool Gadget: A camera that can be converted into a rifle and programmed so only one person can fire it.
Memorable Dialogue: Bond, when asked to cut a wedding cake — " I'll do anything for a woman with a knife."
"Casino Royale" (2006)
Why It's Great: Grade-A reboot of the series featuring a macho but sensitive Daniel Craig as 007 and smashing action sequences.
Main Villain: Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen), a banker for terrorist organizations.
Bond Babe: Vesper Lynd (Eva Green), double agent supposedly monitoring bond's expenses but also working for a terrorist organization. She soon falls for our hero.
Cool Gadgets: Film is low on futuristic gadgetry because it's about the start of Bond's career as a " 00." Still, his Aston Martin has a glove compartment with antidotes to various poisons and a portable defibrillator. Most laughable is his Sony Ericsson cell phone with (get this!) GPS and a 3.2 megapixel digital camera!
Memorable Dialogue: Lynd — " It doesn't bother you? Killing all those people?" Bond —" Well, I wouldn't be very good at my job if it did."

|Cover art for "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan"
As IDW Senior Editor, Andy Schmidt finds himself right in the middle of some of the publisher's major licensed properties, working on comic book interpretations of G.I. Joe, Star Trek, and Transformers. All three of these franchises are in the spotlight for major film releases this summer, with âStar Trekâ taking in $112 million globally in its first weekend and âTransformers: Revenge of the Fallenâ and âG.I. Joe: Rise of Cobraâ due to open June 24 and August 7, respectively.
In addition to editing these various comics, though, Schmidt has also be taken up writing chores on three new projects: an adaptation of âStar Trek II: The Wrath of Khanâ with artist Chee Yang Ong; a children's book titled âG.I. Joe Combat Heroes: We are G.I. Joeâ with Diego Jourdan and Gaston Souto; and the âTransformers Spotlight: Metroplexâ one-shot illustrated by Marcelo Matere. CBR News spoke with Schmidt about writing and editing these comics.
Balancing his duties as IDW Senior Editor with writing projects is tough, and was definitely a concern when Schmidt accepted the editorial position. âThere are a couple of ways to make it work,â he told CBR. âThe first and most obvious is to clearly set aside different times to be an editor and a writer. While I'm at IDW during the day, I'm 100% an editor. At night, I can write up pitches and such.â
Of course, Schmidtâs responsibilities as an editor must come first. âI don't give myself work. That's unethical,â Schmidt confirmed. âIf I'm asked by the publisher to write something, and I've got the time, I'll do it. But I don't assign myself projects.â
|Cover art for "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan"
âIt's a time management issue, mostly,â he continued. âI edit five days a week, and write on weeknights and weekends. I've had to get very organized since I also still teach writing and art classes through Comics Experience, too.â
In the wake of the J.J. Abrams-directed âStar Trek,â Schmidt was given the task of adapting another major Star Trek film, 1982's âThe Wrath of Khanâ which is the only Trek movie that had not yet appeared in comics form. Marvel had acquired the license in connection with âStar Trek: The Motion Picture,â but dropped it when that film was perceived as a failure. âWhen the sequel came out, no one had any faith in it whatsoever, so Paramount Pictures wasn't able to sell many licenses, including the comics license. So at the time of 'Wrath of Khan,' no comic company had the rights,â Schmidt revealed. âWhen 'Khan' was a big hit, DC Comics immediately snatched up the rights, but since it was after the movie, they never produced an adaptation. DC held onto the license for years to come and adapted every other film in the franchise until the current movie. And I believe IDW is very happy to have the license now.â
Given that âKhanâ takes place in the more familiar Star Trek universe rather than the newer Abrams continuity, the existence of two distinct histories poses a challenges to IDW as a licensee. âYes, of course it presents a lot of challenges for story telling, but I think it creates more opportunities than it challenges,â Schmidt said. âThe new movie really opened up a lot of doors and I think it's safe to say, Trek and non-Trek fans alike have embraced the picture.â
IDW's âStar Trek: Countdownâ and the just-announced âNeroâ take place in the new universe, and Schmidt said there would certainly be more to come.
|Cover art for "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan"
Adapting a popular film, especially one with such a dedicated and vocal fan base as âWrath of Khan,â might seem daunting, but Andy Schmidt said the key is finding the best way to tell the story within the medium. âI look for the heart of the piece. In this case, it's the relationship of Kirk and Spock and the theme of aging, as seen by Kirk's eyesight and his son David. The Genesis Device itself fits perfectly into the theme as well, as it essentially erases the effects of aging, but in so doing, can also kill. There's a lot going on in this movie that works on multiple levels. So I looked for those things the most and since I didn't have room to do everything from the movie, I trimmed away a bit that didn't fit perfectly.
âI also moved things around both to save space and so that the story would unfold dramatically a little differently. You can see some of this in the first issue. For example, we cut away from the famous slug-in-the-ear scene so we don't know exactly what happens to Chekov. In the movie, because they stay in that scene, the audience is perfectly aware that Chekov is being mind-controlled. But in the adaptation, the audience doesn't find that out until much later, creating a different kind of tension. Both are equally valid from a dramatic standpoint, but why not play things a little differently here?â
Schmidt said heâd read a review of his first issue that criticized it for being a word-for-word adaptation, which he found âboth funny and very complimentary,â because he doesnât agree itâs a word-for-word adaptation. âI did try to hold on to the parts of dialogue that I think stick with people. A lot of that has to do with the nuances of how it's delivered in the film. But I move quite a bit of the dialogue around and change much of it slightly too,â Schmidt explained. âSo it's not at all what he thought, but that's what made it a compliment -- it felt to that reviewer like he was seeing the movie again and that was awesome to read. It means, at least for him, Chee and I managed to capture the heart of that movie. That was really cool despite the fact it was couched in such a way as to read like a negative.â
|"Transformers Spotlight: Metroplex"
âThe real trick is nipping and tucking until it fits into a good comic book story. Pacing is different in comics. I had to end issue #1 on a cliffhanger that doesn't exist in the movie. I just altered the dialogue and changed the camera angles around for one of Kirk's speeches and got an effective cliffhanger without breaking something in the film.â
IDWâs âStar Trek II: The Wrath of Khanâ is the hardest thing Andy Schmidtâs ever written. âAdapting is no joke. I'm very proud of this one and I think the third issue in particular is outstanding. Chee really knocked that one out of the park.â
A very different project, the âG.I. Joe Combat Heroes: We Are G.I. Joeâ picture book, is a bit unusual for IDW. The book introduces the heroic Joes and villains of Cobra to young readers, much as âTransformers: I am Optimus Primeâ did for the Autobots and Decepticons. â[Writing âWe Are G.I. Joeâ] was a lot of fun. I hope that kids and parents alike enjoy it,â Schmidt said. âAnd no, there are no rifles or pistols in the whole thing. Swords, throwing stars, crossbows, and tanks, yes, but no pistols or rifles. Look closely and you may see a couple of very intimidating Super-Soakers though!â
âTransformers Spotlight: Metroplexâ provided Schmidt with another interesting challenge, as the one-shot takes place almost exclusively in wide-screen presentation, whereby all but the first and last pages are double-pages spreads. âI felt that a story about a transforming city should feel big and I jokingly said I was going to do all spreads in the issue,â the writer said. âAnd then Chris Ryall, the Editor-in-Chief, called me out on it. Said I couldn't do it. And let me be honest, it was hard to do!
|"Transformers Spotlight: Metroplex," "Transformers: All Hail Megatron" #14
âNormally, you shoot for around five panels to a page, on average, but spreads are different and they have different rules so that the reader will read them properly. The canvas had changed. It was really tough, but what I'm finding is that every time I have an obstacle to overcome (especially since I'm still a fairly young comics writer) that it just makes me step my game up. It was a challenge, and figuring it out I think led to a better book.
âThat all said, the real star of this issue is Marcelo, the artist. Holy crap, he hit this one out of the park! It's killer work and just stunning! He hit every spread perfectly. I could always read the spreads perfectly, my eye was never drawn down instead of across the spread. He's just amazing and really proved his ability with this one.â
Also notable about the Metroplex spotlight is that, despite the title, Goldbug is the point-of-view character, with Metroplex making a major though somewhat enigmatic appearance and hinting that he is at the center of some secret Autobot intrigue. âThere are plans for Metroplex,â Schmidt confirmed. âThere is very clearly something more going on that is seen on the surface. And yes, that will be picked up on later, but I can't say more...â
|"G.I. Joe Combat Heroes: We Are G.I. Joe"
Though he edits comics associated with three of this summer's major cinematic releases, Schmidt insists he has not had an advance look at either âG.I. Joe: Rise of Cobraâ or âTransformers: Revenge of the Fallen,â which have yet to be released. âAlong with a bunch of other people at this year's BotCon (the Transformers convention), I got to see about ten minutes of footage from 'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.' It was mostly action, but from what I saw, the action is going to be even better in this movie than it was in the first one. I worked on both movie adaptations, but I have not seen any more footage than that and what's in the trailers.
âAnd honestly, I don't want to see more footage. I want to go to the movies and enjoy the movies as movies instead of as research.â
âStar Trek II: The Wrath of Khanâ #2 is in stores this week. âTransformers Spotlight: Metroplexâ and âG.I. Joe Combat Heroes: We Are G.I. Joeâ arrive July 1 from IDW Publishing.

Faucets traditionally were designed with only two handles, one for hot and one for cold. In 1937, a college student by the name of Al Moen in Seattle, Washington, designed the first single handled faucet. His first design was rejected, therefore Moen created a cylindrical faucet design which gave users a better control over the temperatures of the cold and hot water. The Moen Company is the grandfather of faucet design. By 1945 the first single handled, perfect temperature faucet was patented and began selling quickly.
Faucet designs and delivery systems have become innovative marvels in every kitchen in America and throughout the world. To begin with, their finishes now include nickel and bronze with a physical vapor deposition or PVD. PVD finishes do not scratch, corrode or stain. Chrome and brushed stainless are popular finishes which are very durable.
Would you like a single handle or a double handed faucet? Single handle facuets are simple to install and use because they can be affixed in different directions. A sprayer for a single faucet can be part of the faucet spout or it can affixed to the faucet base. A two handle faucet has a handle like its original design for hot and cold water, plus the handles are a part of the baseplate and the sprayer can be separate.
Modern day faucets have different spout styles: "straight" and "gooseneck" for examples. Straight spout faucets are more on the high end of faucet designs. Gooseneck faucet models are higher in elevation which may cause splashing if you are in a hurry and your sink is more shallow. A "pullout" spout is a model where the spout pulls out of a single handle faucet head on a hose, plus it has a counteweight design for a quick retraction. When it comes to sprayers, this technology has also advanced with finger ready buttons on the side of the spray head, including different spray settings for spray and stream.
Faucets are also customized to match your kitchen accessories and design plan. A chic, smart feature is the stainless steel sink with a bend snake brushed nickel faucet. A kitchen faucet is at its best with an overall design that brings attention to everyone who enters, yet is a subtle, elegant addition to the kitchen. In addition to the Moen family of fine kitchen appliances and equipment, another name that has been around since the early 1800's is Kohler. Both Moen and Kohler have grown into a multifaceted global brand that engineers long lasting and beautiful kitchen faucets and other top of the line gracious living products.
Other features that are found on the best kitchen faucets includes the "touchless" models. The touchless faucets have one ergonomically designed handle. Its motion-sense technology is what makes it so popular, with just a slight wave of the hand, the faucet will come alive. When you place anything underneath the faucet mouth, it turns on, plus the touchless models are available in a "pull-down" feature. In addition to Kohler and Moen brands, other top of the brand name line for the best kitchen faucets, include the following:
- Delta
- Peerless
- Housweety
- Pfister
- Purenex
- Kraus and more.
What are other feautres that help to make a faucet one of the best kitchen faucets on the market:
- a consistent, quiet flow of water,
- faucet functionality, which involves a higher arch to fit things under it, good PSI for sanitation, and a wide swiveling feature.
When you need a faucet that can hold up under constant use, yes, aesthetics are great, but look for faucets that have a solid metal foundation, i.e., brass, copper, or stainless steel.

Nail Art Just Died
Blame — or thank, depending on where your sentiments lie — Marc Jacobs.
Thursday night in New York, Marc Jacobs released his fall 2013 collection — America's most important runway show each season — and with it, his brand-new nail polish line. This, Wall Street Journal reporter Elizabeth Holmes Instagramed, is the shade used in the show. It's called "Shiny," which, the nail technician told her, is Marc's favorite color. (Yes, it's just plain nail enamel, but Marc Jacobs is a famous designer, which means he can't make nail polish with such mundane taxonomy.)
2. See these naked — NAIL ART-LESS — nails?
This can only mean one thing: Marc Jacobs just killed nail art. Because if only one show in New York matters, if only one show has the power to dictate how every other American designer will design their next collections, if only one man has the sheer balls to so forcefully return nails to their natural state — rejecting caviar appliqués, claws, astroturf, printed stickers — it's Marc Jacobs.
Well, it was fun while it lasted!
- It's the third day of the Democratic National Convention. Here's where things stand 🇺🇸

Carnival Spirit Cruise Review by jack1945: To Alaska with Carnival
Overall Member Rating
To Alaska with Carnival
Destination: Alaska
Embarkation: Seattle
After a smooth embarkation, DW and I went to our cabin and marveled at the 30 ft. balcony. The food was from poor to outstanding. The buffet was a disappointing. I settled for a turkey one day and hamburger/hot dogs on 3 days. The breakfast buffet was as expected. The MR dining was in general good. The staff were excellent. Our best meals were at the Steakhouse. we enjoyed the visit so much that we made reservations the second night. On the first night we ordered cheesecake for desert. When the waitress was bringing our selection to our table, my mouth quite literally fell open which started the waitress laughing. The woman sitting behind me had also never seen a 14 oz. piece of cheesecake. It was 7-8 inches high.
But I assure you that wasn't the trip's highlight. The glacier was! I never knew they were so blue .. astounding. he weather was very over cast that day. In fact, the captain decide to take the Endicott Arm rather than the Tracy Arm hoping for brighter skies. I was More disappointed by the weather until we arrived at the glacier. The clouds were low, sliding off of several of the nearby peaks. Seeing the glacier in this setting felt some how more natural. It would been prettier if the sun was shining but some what surreal.
I strongly recommend as Alaskan cruise, everything was so beautiful. Less

The future is nowAugust 28,2014
Since July 16, 2010, I have had photovoltaic solar on my home in Barre 12,346 kilowatt-hours produced to date; 6,502 kilowatt-hours returned to the grid for others to use. Ten tons of carbon dioxide saved. Distributed, small-scale power production, to be sure. The technology has changed since those panels were installed. There is now development in clear PV solar that could be installed on the windows of a home. A skyscraper could become a solar power production source.
On October 19, 1941, on a mountaintop near Castleton, Vermont made history in the global wind energy industry. On this date, for the first time in the world, a large-scale wind turbine delivered power into an electric utilitys system.
There were those who considered that Smith-Putney wind turbine project risky, even foolish. But in the end it was considered an engineering success around the world. Vermont led the way.
Harnessing the sun is the future. Photovoltaic solar and wind are the future. In the past, 73 years ago to be exact, the people of Castleton could see that future. It is sad to read: When developers proposed a wind project for a hill in western Vermont called Grandpas Knob, nearly universal opposition among local residents and select boards in the affected towns Castleton, Hubbardton, Pittsford and West Rutland persuaded the developers to back away.

This step deck is very durable and has held up very well. I use it abouot three times a week and love that it is adjustable.
I bought this maybe 6-8 months ago and have been using it regularly at home. It is the best step I've used at home or in a gym step class. I had a cheapie $20 one from Walmart years ago that had no rubber or any traction on top, plus it kept coming off the bases. This one has rubber and can't come off the bases (except to use as a rocker - not sure, I haven't done that). The bigger gym steps I've used in various gyms also come off their bases occasionally if you step on it in the wrong place, so I think this one is superior, but it is smaller. If I took another step class, I think I'd take this one with me, since I can trust it more (it has handles, so you can carry it, but the edges are kind of sharp, so I'd use a small cloth to pad it). I haven't used it bare on tile or hardwood, only with some sort of traction - a bathmat, rug, that almost sticky stuff sold to line kitchen cabinets - no problem with any of those. Also, I was expecting the gold's gym logo to rub off with wear, but it appears that the rubber is actually white - it's not printed on, so it looks new (except shoe dirt). If you want to elevate it to the higher level, you don't need to store the extra legs - they fit right under the step while in regular position. A really good quality step - worth the slightly high price. Now I have to find a pink one for my daughter so she doesn't hog mine!
Recently purchased and have worked out on it about 6 times. Very sturdy and well built. The non-slip rubber on the surface is great! My previous stepper had a hard plastic surface that could be slippery with some moves. Haven't used it as "rocker" (only for step aerobics), but it's nice knowing that the feature is there when i want to add on to the my exercise routine.
Just got it but already I am impressed with the sturdy feel and the fact that it is non slip. The steps at the gym seems to want to slide a little when you step on them at a certain angle. So far, I have not gotten this one to budge. Sounds like a small thing, but it could cause an injury and I will be using it for an exercise group at church. So, I cant be too careful. Only thing- I am wondering if I can get extentions when I am ready to go higher?
Okay, I have only used the unit 5 times as I just purchased it, but it works for my needs. I used steppers years and years ago - and stumbled upon them when trying to find new ways to shake up my work out routine. I remember what great results I got from them and how I really enjoyed using them and was able to go for a long time(up to 60 minutes) on them at a time. Not being able to walk outside(winter here in WI) and got burned out from using the exercise bike 6 times a week and hit a plateau. So hoping this will get things in motion again! Step is very sturdy. Good size for apt use(not as big as a gym's or class, but not sure why anyone would want something so big for home use, unless you are a very large/tall man). Well built underneath and the legs/extensions store right into the bottom, so this helps to keep it "quieter" without that hollow boom boom sound. Compact, easy to store and move, while not falling apart during movement. Great price too and walmart had it in stock in the store - big plus when you want to start TODAY, lol! in all honesty, will post again after I have used for a month or more. that is the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 - when I post again if things stay as good or better will give it 5 stars!
I love this step!!! It's multi-functional, you can really get a full body workout. Great value for the money. My only complaint is that I wish it was a little wider for step excercises. Other than that, it's perfect!!
This is a great step! It is exactly what I was looking for- it offers the different heights and balance platform. It is an excellent product and the price makes it an even better value. It is sturdy and has a nice wide platform.
Nice wide base, solid to step up onto. We use it as a stair step to a higher platform in one setting and coming off that platform back to the step feels pretty solid. Nice height. Quality step.
I bought this for myself, but my soon-to-be-married daughter wanted to borrow it to help her lose some weight before the big day. I haven't got to use it yet, but she absolutely loves it! She says I can have it back after the wedding. She also says she will definitely be ordering one for herself.
To my great and pleasant surprise, this Step-Up is more than I expected. It is very durable and nicely made. I am really happy with my purchase. Thank you
This product serves for "dual" purposes but for exercising its great! It's sturdy!
This step is made very well, sturdy and non-slip. And it looks great too!
Adjustable height, compact, good quality step

Gordon trying to revive stadium off-road racing
LOS ANGELES – After Coliseum officials went home for the day at around 7 p.m., Robby Gordon put his construction crew to work. By 2:30 a.m., a good portion of the USC football field had been paved over with asphalt, becoming a part of the track that his newly formed Stadium SUPER Trucks series will use in Saturday night's race.
Of course, Gordon didn't have permission to do it, necessitating the clandestine road work, which wasn't a big hit with the folks who run the stadium.
"They started saying it was just supposed to be dirt, and I told them that asphalt is a form of dirt if you want to use an analogy," said Gordon, a longtime Orange resident. "Then they wanted to know how we were going to slow the trucks down."
He put a few metal jumps in the paved portion of the course, which circles the football field and goes all the way up one side of the stadium's peristyles, leading drivers momentarily out of the Coliseum where they make a U-turn and jump back in.
There's some dirt in the track too, and that's where there's a jump that forces the trucks to clear at least 50 feet. Justin Lofton made it across rather easily during Thursday's practice, and when Gordon saw that he said he was going to push the landing zone back 50 feet.
Gordon has left behind driving in the IndyCar Series and NASCAR to focus on becoming a racing promoter, trying to revive the stadium off-road racing that Mickey Thompson made extremely popular in the 1980s and '90s.
He is taking a huge financial risk to do it. Everything he said is done "in house," including the track construction and the TV production that puts together the broadcasts, which air on NBC and NBC Sports Network. He even owns all of the trucks, selling franchises to the teams that will compete tonight at the Coliseum. There will be 13 trucks in the field tonight.
The Super Buggy and Super Trophy Kart classes will also compete at the Coliseum.
"This a new form of motor sports. The other forms get so expensive people can't do it, so we had to bring the cost of the vehicles down, and being a franchise we can get the players that we want involved," Gordon said.
PJ Jones and Jeff Ward (Newport Beach), who have nine Indy 500 starts between them, are among the franchise owners, and so is seven-time AMA dirt bike champion Ricky Johnson.
"The series is growing. We are just two races in, and we have a lot of buzz going, and I am happy about that," Gordon said. "I have won in every form of motor sports that I have driven in, and I think that I will be able to win as a promoter too."
