Confirmed: Geoff Johns Is the New President of DC Entertainment
Comic Books, Film, TV
My first thought when learning that there was going to be a revival of Rob Liefeld's Extreme Comics line at Image was that I was an old, old man. We'd already reached the point where something so recent was old enough to have a nostalgia hook? And then I realized that we're more than a decade since the last revamp of Prophet and almost as long since the last attempt at a Glory series.
Nonetheless, there's something about the idea that feels… unexpected, at least. After all, the Extreme line hasn't really been something that I've seen a lot of people crying out for a revival of, or even having particularly fond memories of. For my own part, for some reason, I always end up putting it alongside Jim Lee's whole Wildstorm universe – which has suffered various fortunes in the last twenty or so years since its creation, almost all of which were in a downward direction – but without the highpoint of the turn of the century Warren Ellis/John Cassaday/Bryan Hitch/Mark Millar/Frank Quitely era. Instead, there was Alan Moore's Supreme and Judgment Day, and then a couple of stillborn attempts to have Moore revamp the entire universe, both of which have been quickly pushed into relative obscurity (But, somehow, Moore's efforts feel lesser than what Ellis and Millar et al did with the Wildstorm universe; perhaps because they didn't impact the larger superhero publishers in the same way? Perhaps because they were so retrospective that they were almost parody?). There's something about the Extreme characters that feel very much of their time, and of that time to be the past. They don't seem contemporary, or forward thinking, and that's what makes their revival so fascinating.
That… how to describe it? A lack of urgency? A lack of necessity? That feeling that the Extreme characters are relics without the kind of emotional connection or cultural impact that make them permanent, solidified ideas, is what makes the revival so appealing, as well; the idea of Brandon Graham writing a science fiction series influenced by Metabarons and European SF comics is incredibly exciting, just as I can look at the Glory preview images and, divorced from any idea of what Glory is supposed to be, think "Muscular woman punching tank. That's kind of a cool image" without having any preconceptions about what I'm seeing. It's telling that the one title I'm most hesitant to pick up is Youngblood, the one title I've read the most often; I've read enough takes on that idea to feel jaded about it coming back (Plus, I'm still harboring a grudge over the way that Rob Liefeld took over the book from Joe Casey a few years back and instantly vanished it, whether by accident or design).
It's weird; I wanted to be snarky and mean about the revival. "Who wants to read about the Extreme characters?" and all that. But it's that very thing, the fact that there's not a ready-made audience out there, that ultimately wins me over. Add to that the fact that the revivals don't seem to be slavish attempts to ape Liefeld or Extreme in their prime, and there's a sense that, just maybe, this revival is as much based on love of the characters and a desire to push them somewhere else, and that's… kind of great, really. I have no idea whether the actual comics will live up to my surprise enthusiasm and interest, but if nothing else, I'll be picking up the first issues and hoping for the best.
Wasn't interested at first. I only ever saw the headlines that said Extreme was relaunching, I rolled my eyes and moved on. But Brandon Graham writing a comic and Ross Campbell drawing another… well, okay, I'm a bit more interested now. I wish Graham was drawing as well, but no matter.
(Plus, I'm still harboring a grudge over the way that Rob Liefeld took over the book from Joe Casey a few years back and instantly vanished it, whether by accident or design).
Man, amen to that. I didn't think Casey's Youngblood was as good as a lot of his other work (it certainly didn't hold a candle to Wildcats or Automatic Kafka), but the way his dismissal was handled was absolutely bogus.
I know next to nothing about the other Extreme characters, but I'm willing to give Prophet and Glory a shot, based on the strength of Graham and Ross' previous work.
I'm very on the fence here on this whole subject. I've seen a lot of people HEAVILY criticize Liefeld's art style, and I've read Liefeld's recent statement on 'beating the haters'. So because of that, I'm pretty neutral on the matter. I actually think his work's gotten a little more 'tamer' in recent years (he can actually draw feet, I don't know what everyone's complaining about). Maybe it's just his faces that need work.
I actually plan, for a fanfic, to put Liefeld's Youngblood, Supreme, and Glory characters on one of the alternate earths in my multiverse. They'd be initially based on their debut versions from 1992/93, but more fleshed out and less two-dimensional and ripoffy–Supreme would even have some of the elements introduced by Alan Moore. They'd share the place with Spawn (based on the cartoon version, some comic elements), Shadowhawk, the WildCATS (also mostly cartoon-based), the original Stormwatch, Savage Dragon, Cyberforce (given the same treatment I give to YB/Supreme/Glory), and Gen 13 (combo of comic and unreleased animated film). I am doing so because I see potential, and they're an example of a different point of view in the mainstream comics industry. The only ones I left out are the Darkness, the Authority, Pitt, Witchblade, and the Maxx, who in my entire fanfic-verse would only exist as comic books published in the main universe.
@Acer: Just out of curiosity, who are the main characters in your fanfic?
The denizens of the DCAU and MAU, plus the Sunbow/DIC era GI Joe and an a TF history incoporating G1/2, Beast Era, RID, Unicron Trilogy, plus a few more suprises.

Michelle and I abstain from sex tease so she'll be horny for her boyfriend
Michelle's plane was scheduled to leave on a Friday afternoon, shortly after lunch, so I asked her to take Thursday and Friday off from work to get ready for the trip. By the week of Michelle's date with Mike, she was more than a little nervous and my scheme of withholding sex was definitely working, as we were both getting hornier and hornier.

Wireless Sensor Networks for Soil Science
Wireless sensor networks can revolutionize soil ecology by providing measurements at temporal and spatial granularities previously impossible. This paper presents the authors' first steps towards fulfilling that goal by developing and deploying two experimental soil monitoring networks at urban forests in Baltimore, MD. The nodes of these networks periodically measure soil moisture and temperature and store the measurements in local memory. Raw measurements are incrementally retrieved by a sensor gateway and persistently stored in a database. The database also stores calibrated versions of the collected data. The measurement database is available to third-party applications through various web services interfaces.

SDCC: New "Star Trek" Series Gets Full Title, First Teaser Released
Every now and then word comes out of a great idea for a comic that, for one reason or another, never made it's way to print. This week, you're in for a doozy.
Cartoonist Dean Trippe (Butterfly) was working with DC editor Chris Cerasi for a number of months on a new series reportedly to be part of DC's kids line. Going under the title Lois Lane, Girl Reporter, Trippe's proposal outlined a series of young-adult novels co-written with John Campbell and illustrated by Daniel Krall. The premise, as taken directly from the proposal to DC, was:
Lois Lane, Girl Reporter follows the adventures of young Lois Lane. At eleven years old, Lois has discovered her calling: investigative journalism. She sets out to right wrongs and help out her friends. This series explores Lois's character, reveals her surprising early influence on the future Man of Steel, and introduces fun new elements into this enduring character's back story.
In each book, Lois will tackle a problem or mystery affecting the members of the community she finds herself in as she travels around the country. The investigations in this series will not be mystical or supernatural (though some characters may suspect such sources), but real world problems that Lois works to set right.
After months years of delay, Trippe reports that "it doesn't look like the current leadership of DC is remotely interested in this kinda thing" and has posted it online for posterity. Trippe is currently working on a new OGN with J. Torres called Power Lunch for Oni Press, and still hopes to get a chance on one of DC or Marvel's superheroes in the near future.
Meanwhile, DC churns out crap like Tiny Titans, which last I looked at it read like it was written by a 4 year old. There's a difference between writing for children and writing like a child.
This sounds good, therefore DC probably won't even comment. DC's more interested in offering writing jobs to artists who have never written before, and company execs who can't write a story to save their lives.
37 years old.
College educated.
Loves Tiny Titans.
Would also love reading the series described above.
Crap does not win Eisner Awards–Comics aren't the Grammys (yet).
This would-be series looks/ sounds great! I'd read it.
I would be so excited to buy this for the kids in my family, especially if they were neat little hardbacks like the Vertigo Crime line.
I read the first issue and it was the single dumbest, most condescending thing I have ever read.
If it remained that bad, and got an Eisner award, someone's buying Eisner awards.
First issue of Tiny Titans, that is.
Sounds awesome. A real shame that DC wouldn't bite, although not surprising in the least. I hope Power Lunch fares better.
Same here. And I think that even if Lois Lane: Girl Reporter doesn't appeal to DC's current audience, it has a LOT of potential to bring in new, female readers. So hopefully DC will reconsider one day…
If DC or Marvel is not employing Trippe by the end of this year, I will be shocked. But of course, this is the same consumer base and industry that could not support a Thor comic written by Roger Langridge and drawn by Chris Samnee. So I may be expecting too much of a reality.
There was also a Wonder Woman YA series proposed and shot down by DC. The excuse of "the market won't support this" only shows the root of the mistake DC (as well as Marvel) continues to make.
The try to sell the right books to the wrong crowd.
Books in this vein should be available in comic shops but the marketing of it can't be focused on the wednesday
Go after the Harry Porter/ Twightlight fans. Plan book signs with the creators at book stores of all kinds.
Pay for ads in "girl mags" and on teen-geared websites.
Pair the Lois Lane book in a line with Wonder Woman book that Ben Caldwell proposed.
To round out the line, create a Connor Hawk Green Arrow YA book without the baggage that he has to carry in the DCU.
Just a thought.
Thanks for the post and kind words, Chris & Robot 6. The response to my post about the LL,GR pitch has just been overwhelming. Whether DC or Marvel want anything to do with me, (and Marvel's looking more appealing presently) I'm gonna go make comics like this.

Dr Cary makes several good points about our article and Dr Dan's editorial, but we differ with his conclusion. He is correct that the Medical College Admission Test scores and grades of medical students have not fallen. It is further true that any 2-year decrement in candidate performance is small in absolute numbers of questions, although these differences are considerable in a statistical sense (as a proportion of the SD). In any event, the decline is cumulative, and during the 6 years of the study it almost certainly reflects a decrease in the medical knowledge of the reference-group candidates.More importantly, Dr Cary cites several areas of new medical knowledge and argues that residents must learn them at the expense of others. This argument fails to acknowledge that some informaltion becomes outdated during that same period and no longer needs to be retained (in fact should be

Betwene Ernest and Game : The Literary Artistry of the Confessio Amantis (American University Studies)
This study of the Confessio Amantis by the fourteenth-century poet John Gower uses linguistic and structuralist techniques to assess aspects of the literary artistry of a great but neglected poem. It posits that Dante's Vita Nuova is an analogue that helps us understand the structure of the Confessio and that the Confessio is carefully ordered to promote love, both amor and caritas. The book discusses puns and rimes quivoques as aspects of Gower's literary artistry and residual elements of oral tradition in the Tale of Appolinus of Tyre. It concludes with a reconsideration of the relationship of the narrative materials shared by Gower and his contemporary Chaucer with a view to correcting biases concerning the relative merits of the two poets.

This book provides fascinating insight into the life and writing of popular children's author Lois Lowry. Lowry, the winner of not one but two coveted Newbery Awards (one for Number the Stars and the second for The Giver), is an author known for her wide range. She is equally comfortable and successful writing funny, lighthearted books, such as the Anastasia Krupnik series; realistic and serious books about difficult situations, such as Find a Stranger, Say Goodbye and Number the Stars; and futuristic novels set in imaginary settings, such as The Giver. This title is a fascinating read both for fans of Lowry and for young readers who want to know more about this great author.

Matthew Vaughn's comic book fantasy Kick-Ass premiered to a delighted geek contingent Friday night at SXSW (read Todd Gilchrist's review here). As Vaughn walked the red carpet with Kick-Ass creators Mark Millar and John Romita and stars Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Aaron Johnson, and Clark Duke, Cinematical put the truly pressing questions to the cast and crew: namely, when can we expect the next Kick-Ass story from Millar and Romita and which member of the cast wants to become the War Machine of Kick-Ass 2? (More importantly, was Chris Mintz-Plasse's Red Mist designed to resemble the look of a certain American Idol contestant?)
Kick-Ass comic creators Mark Millar and John S. Romita arrived at the premiere beaming like two proud parents, both happy with the film's faithfulness to their source material and excited to be debuting the film version of Kick-Ass at a film festival uniquely suited to the project. "You cannot imagine how exciting it is," gushed Romita.
"The comic is absolutely honored by the movie, in the sense that it's pretty much scene for scene," added Millar. "There's no greater compliment than that, for us."
Kick-Ass, about an average high school comic book nerd (Aaron Johnson) who transforms into a self-styled superhero to exact vigilante justice upon the streets of New York City, is just one of many superhero stories and comic books that have been made or adapted for the screen in recent years. The rise in demand for comic book movies has changed the dynamic for comics writers in Hollywood in particular, says Millar. "You can have a meeting with Steven Spielberg if you work in comics. You can set it up tomorrow. It's crazy; years ago you used to have to be Tom Wolfe, now you just have to be drawing fantastic work."
Continued below.
Produced independently, Kick-Ass will be distributed by Lionsgate on March 26 in the U.K. and April 16 in the U.S. The film's script, by Jane Goldman (Stardust), is based on Millar and Romita's eight-issue comic book, but the writer and illustrator already have a timeline to produce the next story arc in the series – and they promise you'll see "loads more characters."
"I'm going to start writing in April and Johnny will hopefully have it out by September, to cash in on that DVD," Millar told Cinematical with a wink. "We'll definitely see more of Hit Girl. I think we've stumbled onto the new Han Solo, there's just something about this character that, from the minute she appears, we just went insane for her. We just loved her."
"You'll see at the end of the film, we know there aren't many characters left," explained Romita, who added that there could be as many as two or three more installments in the franchise.
And what familiar faces might get to take up the superhero mantle in Kick-Ass 2? Nobody's saying yet, but co-star Clark Duke has already put in his bid. "I've already gotten multiple promises from all of them - Matthew and Mark and John, all the apostles -- that I get a costume."
Would that make him the James Rhodes/War Machine of the Kick-Ass universe? Duke considered the comparison. "You know," he replied, "I have a lot in common with Don Cheadle. So that would be very appropriate."
Meanwhile, Kick-Ass stars Aaron Johnson and Christopher Mintz-Plasse made the rounds paired together, cracking playful jokes every step of the way. (One of the lessons Johnson learned from filming Kick-Ass: "Superheroes always stick together, like bros."). In the film, Johnson spends the majority of the film in head-to-toe green spandex; meanwhile, Mintz-Plasse's character develops his own alter ego named Red Mist, whose signature style involves red and black leather, a lightning bolt-shaped mask, and a streak of red in his hair. We snuck in the single most burning question we had after watching Kick-Ass: Are we the only ones who think Red Mist looks like the superhero version of Adam Lambert?
The erstwhile McLovin was crestfallen. "That's not what I want to hear! I was thinking he looked more like David Bowie, with his hair from the '80s."
"Actually," co-star Johnson volunteered, "He looks more like Rihanna."
"Yeah, more like Rihanna," Mintz-Plasse agreed. "But don't give me Adam Lambert. You're breaking my heart!"

Christmas Pageant Styles for your Theatrical Child
Ever been in this situation? Of course you're OVERJOYED that your child got a part in the Christmas pageant! But, you know who gets to make their fabulous costume? That's right. You do. But, don't worry, here at Costume Express we know that not all moms and dads have the time (or let's face it, the patience) to slave all day and night over a costume that will most likely never measure up to little Timmy's costume who was made by his mother, the professional seamstress. Here are a few classic Christmas styles that will make your child truly shine in the pageant.
1. Mary
If your kid got the part of Mary in the Nativity play, she's going to get a lot of stage time. A lot. I'm pretty sure she never actually leaves the stage. She doesn't say much, just sits and looks at Jesus mostly, which means her costume is going to be the main focus of audience members. This beautifully humble style will surely be a hit.
2. Shepard/Joseph
Joseph is in the same boat as Mary. Not a lot of lines, but a lot of stage time.
3. Santa
It's a huge honor to get to play Santa at a Christmas pageant. You have to have charisma, character, a jolly and hearty laugh; and of course, an elaborate and authentic costume.
4. Elf
Kids have lots of ideas in their minds of what elves are supposed to look and dress like. This costume is probably the easiest to make from clothing and materials at home (since you can really go wherever you want with it), but here's a classic style that will have your child looking undeniably elvish.
5. Angel
Many Nativity plays either open with an angel or are narrated by one. This sweet and serene style will have the audience hanging on your child's every word.
Have you ever had to make a Christmas pageant costume? Share your experience with us in the comments!
Share and Enjoy

Being that I am a convert, I have been trying to understand what the differences between Old Calendar Churches, and mainstream Orthodoxy. I attend a ROCOR Church, and we are on the Julian Calendar, but are there doctrinal differences as well?It seems that if it was just an issue of the calendar, that things could be resolved quickly.Thanks!Mark
What orthodoxlurker states above is not an accurate reflection of the Old Calendarist position or history. However, given our recent exchanges, I am not in any mood to continue such debates under a new topic, so I will refrain at this time from responding in detail.

Roaming Pokémon
View Single Post
August 8th, 2013 (10:29 AM).
The Cynical Completionist
Join Date:
Jun 2006
So, did you like the feature of roaming Pokémon?
No, I absolutely hate this feature. The combination of, well, roaming, and ending the battle ASAP by roaring or running away really irritates me. I am one of the crazy people who try to complete the National Dex, so it's not something I can just shrug off.
Do you want it brought back in Gen VI?
What would you change about them?
If I had a choice, I would at least remove the roaming Pokémon's ability to run away or Roar, finding them once is painful enough as it is, I hate having to do that over and over again.
Or, as an alternative, the game should make available as many Master Balls as there are roaming Pokémon.
But, IMHO, Black 2/White 2 already did the best possible thing to the roaming Pokémon: they removed them.
Would you perhaps make it so paralysis and sleep would make them stay in the battle until they wake up?
As I said, I would make them completely unable to escape on their own no matter the status.
What was your favourite method of capturing them?
Throwing the Master Ball.
Bonus Question: Do you think GF should have paid more attention to the two glitches that appeared in Gen III's dog (and Lati) roamers? For those that don't know there are two glitches; one that affects the roamers in RS and FRLG this glitch makes it so the roamers will have extremely low IV's and the other is purely for FRLG where if the player encounters Entei or Raikou they can Roar to flee; if they do they will disappear from the game forever. Emerald is unaffected by any of this.
I never cared about EV/IV as I don't fight online, and by the time I catch the roaming legendaries, my Pokémon are already very strong. I only catch the roaming legendaries to complete the Pokédex.
The Roar glitch is a bummer for sure, but if you don't care about completing National Pokédex or have Pokémon Colosseum (where you can catch Raikou, Entei and Suicune in one playthrough) it's not critical. Also, using the Master Ball to catch the roamer renders this point moot.

Wesley Keesler was one of two drivers involved in a two-vehicle
accident Monday.
The other driver, Timothy Ivester, says Keesler's Eagle Talon edged into his lane while rounding a curve and sideswiped Ivester's pickup truck.
Ivester's truck stopped on the side of the road.
But Keesler's car ended up on a steep bank and was stopped by a tree from going all the way down a 10-foot drop into a creek.
First responder Ken Struble says when he arrived Keesler already
was out of his car.
Keesler was taken to Stephens County Hospital with injuries.
He has been charged with failure to maintain lane.

Critical Rating: AAA

Five all-black-cast suck/fuck scenes.
When you start this disk you have to sit through three and a half minutes of phone sex ads to get to the Menu. When you click Play Movie you have to go through the ads again. If you click Title after the movie is running, the movie starts again. It's just barely worth all that hassle to see five moderately raunchy fuck/suck sessions, the first two of them interrupted by the director. He tells Ray Don, whose big dick can't get hard from being sucked, to get down and suck the other guy. That gets Don up, and he fucks the other guy doggy-style. Next scene starts with a vigorous suck of a dick that doesn't want to get hard either, but its sucker keeps deep throating it till it's big enough to gag him. Then he face-fucks his suckee, who then butt-fucks him. Just when things are getting really involving, the director stops them to ask if they're ready to come! The next three fine fucks are uninterrupted.

Mason City's Arlee Theater Reopening This Week
MASON CITY, IL — The Arlee Theater on Main Street in Mason City is about to reopen after four years of sitting vacant, according to this report in the Lincoln Courier.
The theater was last used as a country western music venue. Before that, it was a movie house from 1936 until 1984. But in May of 2003, John and Gaye Maxson of Mason City purchased the 450-seat Arlee, and since then have put a good deal of time, effort and money into cleaning up the theater. "I bet I've scraped 2,000 pieces of gum off the floor," says Gaye, "Some of it's pretty old."

Balboa's Birthday Bash Was a Blast!
SAN FRANCISCO, CA — In anticipation of the big day, the Balboa staff worked hard to clean and get ready for our 78th Balboa Birthday Bash.
With daily construction happening around the theater restoration and handicap upgrades, there was quite a crowd in the lobby and auditoriums each day. Several took on the delicate project of washing the etched glass of our light fixtures while Romero Glass Studios in Oakland was creating replacements for the broken and missing pieces.
I have 150-175 theater seats that are available for free. Please contact me for further details.

Former Odeon Cinema For Sale?
HARTLEPOOL, ENGLAND — Odeon closed this theater in 1981. Re-opened as a live entertainment club called Casears Palace in the late 90's, the venue only lasted a couple of years before closing once again.
Yesterday, though, a "For Sale" sign has appeared, with Newcastle upon Tyne agents Lamb & Edge handling the property. The theater's current owner is the Hartlepool-based company Capanac Leisure, who own a number of bars and nightclubs in town.
They also owned the former Fairworld Cinema just a few hundred yards away, which was Hartlepool's last cinema, closing in May 1983, until the Warner Village opened a few years ago on the marina. The Fairworld was demolished in 1997 and a Morrisons supermarket now stands on the theater's site.
Details of the Odeon property have yet to appear on the Lamb & Edge website.

Candidates include people with celiac disease, gluten sensitivity or those with a wheat allergy
By Serena Gordon
HealthDay Reporter
FRIDAY, July 19 (HealthDay News) -- Chances are you know at least one person who's given up eating gluten. Maybe you've even given it up yourself. But who can really benefit from a gluten-free diet?
"Gluten is one of the main proteins found in wheat, barley and rye," said Dr. Joseph Levy, division director of pediatric gastroenterology at NYU Langone Medical Center in New York City. "It's actually a group of proteins and not a single component, but gluten is the general term."
In baking, it plays a key role. "Gluten is responsible for the way dough is able to rise when you put yeast in it," Levy explained. "It's the structure of gluten that makes baked goods light and crispy. If you try to cook with gluten-free flour it won't have the same airiness. The dough is heavier, and the finished product will be flat and heavy."
But though gluten might make for a flaky croissant, it can cause a number of problems for certain people.
Registered dietician Rachel Begun, a spokeswoman for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, said that three types of people may not be able to eat products containing gluten: people with celiac disease, people with gluten sensitivity or intolerance, and people with a wheat allergy.
"Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder, and when gluten is eaten, the body triggers an attack on the intestines," Begun said. "Damage occurs over time, and nutrients can't be absorbed."
Levy said that "even tiny amounts of gluten trigger an immune-mediated attack on the lining of the bowel." For someone with celiac disease, "it's important that you don't have any exposure to gluten," he said.
One problem, though, is that people aren't always aware that they have celiac disease. In fact, a study published last year in the American Journal of Gastroenterology found that almost 80 percent of people with celiac disease don't know they have it.
Celiac disease often has no symptoms for years, Begun said, and is often discovered because of the problems it creates, such as anemia or osteoporosis.

Quest for Frozen Pandemic Virus Yields Mixed Results
By JOHN NOBLE WILFORD
Published: September 8, 1998
DIGGING in a cemetery on the Arctic island of Spitsbergen, Norway, medical scientists found the seven coffins they were looking for, but the coffins lay in shallow graves, which was not what they wanted to find. They had hoped they would be six feet deep, in permafrost, where the bodies would still be frozen and well preserved 80 years after dying in the terrible influenza pandemic of 1918.
The scientists would not describe the condition of the seven bodies after years of seasonal freezing and thawing. But they said the victims, young coal miners, appeared to have been buried in haste, probably out of fear of the contagion that had claimed their lives. Their bodies had been buried without clothes, wrapped only in newspapers. The graves were no more than three feet deep, above the permafrost line.
Even so, members of the exhumation project said last week that they got what they came for: samples of tissues from six of the flu victims (they did not have permission to sample the seventh). They denied earlier published reports that the coffins contained only bones and no retrievable tissue specimens.
Dr. Kirsty Duncan, a Canadian medical geographer who directs the project, said the pathologists were able to get more than 100 soft tissue samples, including several from the lungs. Biologists will be examining the lung tissues in particular for traces of the mysterious flu virus that killed more than 20 million people worldwide in 1918 and early 1919. They are looking for clues to why that contagion was so much more virulent and lethal than any flu virus before or since.
''We got good stuff, really good stuff,'' Dr. Duncan, a professor at the universities of Windsor and Toronto, said in an interview by telephone from her office in Toronto. ''Virologists on the team are very hopeful.''
Dr. Robert Webster, a member of the team who is a virologist at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, reacted more cautiously. ''The samples were not exactly what we thought we were going to get,'' he said in an interview. ''How much we're going to find out from them remains to be seen.''
Research over the last five years by Dr. Duncan had pinpointed these seven graves in Longyearbyen -- the principal community on the island of Spitsbergen, some 700 miles from the North Pole -- as the most promising place to look for well-preserved specimens of the 1918 virus. With new techniques in molecular biology and genetics, perhaps such long-frozen specimens could now reveal why that virus was one of the most lethal organisms that ever attacked humans. The knowledge might then help fight future outbreaks.
The state of the specimens has not altered the overall plans for laboratory testing. The samples are being shipped to London for the first round of analysis by scientists at the National Institute of Medical Research and the London Hospital Medical College. Specimens will later be distributed to scientists in Canada, the United States and Norway. Scientists said they could know in three months if the samples are likely to yield significant results, after which they might spend another three years on further analysis.
''It will be harder work than if the tissues had been frozen,'' Dr. Webster said, explaining that the degraded tissues probably contain only scraps from the genetic material of the flu virus, which may present problems in reconstructing the structure of genes critical to the virus's infectious behavior. ''We might get less out of the samples than we initially hoped,'' he added.
Dr. Webster said the lung tissues would probably be the most useful, because flu viruses spread by infiltrating the cells lining the respiratory system and thus should have left traces there. They were not able to take lung samples from all six bodies, he said. This suggests some bodies were badly decomposed.
Some samples were also taken from other organs. Researchers have speculated that the 1918 variant of the flu virus might have been especially virulent if it somehow attacked throughout the body, not just in the respiratory system.
Dr. Charles R. Smith, the project's pathologist and a forensic pathologist at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, said he wanted to extract brain tissues to investigate any possible relationship between the 1918 flu and the widespread incidence of sleeping sickness in the 1920's.
The scientists said they were confident that the exhumed bodies were those they were looking for. The bodies were clearly once strapping young men. The seven victims were 18 to 29 years old when they came to Spitsbergen from the Norwegian mainland to work in the coal mines, but they contracted flu on the boat. All of them died in the first week of October, at the height of the global pandemic.
Surveys with ground-penetrating radar had led the team to think the coffins were six feet deep. The radar detects differences in subsurface densities and textures, indicative of disturbed conditions or buried objects. In this case, suggested Dr. Duncan, the team leader, the gravediggers in 1918 might have used dynamite to break up the permafrost down to six feet below the surface, which would have left radar traces of disturbed ground at that depth. Then, in haste, they might have buried the coffins in shallow graves without clearing out the dynamited rubble.

Jennifer Garner was on Mommy duty as usual in Santa Monica, California wearing her Current/Elliott perfect shirt again. Okay DenimBlog readers, you know how I really do adore Jennifer, but those pants she is wearing are just horrible for her! I mean they remind me of those polyester slacks that are really unflattering. Maybe she is just having a "bad wardrobe" day? Thank Goodness she had enough sense to wear a decent shirt with those pants. She needs to go back to denim for pants STAT!
