PREVIEWS: "Daredevil," "Uncanny X-Men," & More Marvel Comics On Sale August 3, 2016
Comic Books
Manga | More than 2.5 million copies of the English-language editions of Attack on Titan in print, Kodansha USA announced earlier this month at Anime Expo. Although that may seem like a lot, there are more than 44 million copies of the same 15 volumes of Hajime Isayama's post-apocalyptic manga in print in Japan. The Asahi Shimbun estimates the U.S. comics market as one-fifth the size of the Japanese market. [The Asahi Shimbun]
Passings | Bill Garner, the editorial cartoonist for The Washington Times from 1983 to 2009, has died at age 79. Garner was born in Texas and attended the Texas School of Fine Arts, then went to the University of Texas at Austin for one year. He served in the Army from 1956 to 1962, then went to work as an illustrator for The Washington Star. His editor there suggested he try his hand at cartooning, and it took. He moved on to become the editorial cartoonist for the Memphis Commercial Appeal, where in 1981 he won a National Headliner Award. His best-known cartoon is one he drew for the Times shortly after the overthrow of Saddam Hussein, showing a tank with the bumper sticker "Saddam Happens" driving over a sand dune.

The British sci-fi anthology 2000AD was one of the first publishers to offer digital comics, and it ofers readers a choice: They can buy single issues and graphic novels within their iOS and Android apps or as direct downloads from their web store.
The advantage to the latter has always been that direct downloads are free of digital rights management (DRM) — they are simply files that can be freely moved from device to device — while comics purchased within the apps can only be read within the apps. Each way of buying comics has its advantages; the apps allow the user to store comics in the cloud and keep them organized in a single place on their tablet or computer, while PDF and CBZ files come with no strings attached.
U.K. publisher Rebellion has an Android app selling 2000 AD, Judge Dredd Megazine and its large selection of classic graphic novels. Signing up for a digital 2000 AD subscription also unlocks access to three months of back issues so readers can get caught up.
According to the publisher, 2000 AD and the Meg will be available for purchase day-and-date in-app and as DRM-free downloads in either PDF or CBZ format. The new Android app complements Rebellion's existing iOS app, noteworthy for being one of the few not run through leading digital comics distributor comiXology.
To celebrate the launch of the 2000 AD app for Android, Rebellion shared with ROBOT 6 Greg Staples' unreleased cover to 2000 AD prog 1915, featuring the return of Judge Death in "Dark Justice" by John Wagner and Staples. One of the first issues to debut inside the new Android app, prog 1915 goes on sale in-app on Feb. 1.
The 2000 AD app for Android is available now on Google Play.
To promote the Wednesday debut of Judge Dredd: The Mega Collection — themed hardcover editions released every two weeks — publisher 2000 AD is using an appropriately mega-sized approach: a 20-second television commercial set to air on multiple channels across the United Kingdom. You can watch it below.
Beginning with Issue 1: "America," the 1990-92 serial by John Wagner and Colin MacNeil, Judge Dredd: The Mega Collection gathers the definitive stories and creators from the strip's 38-year history, arranged thematically and "in an order chosen by the experts at Rebellion to give new and old readers alike a coherent and immersive reading experience."
Judge Dredd has crossed paths with Batman, Predator, the Xenomorph, Lobo and even Mars Attacks!, yet somehow Mega-City One's finest has never run into the Man of Steel. But while Andy Diggle admits he doesn't envision that changing anytime soon, the writer has an idea that may have fans pining for the heyday of the intercompany crossover.
"An object falls from space and crashes towards Mega-City One. The anti-missile lasers can't seem to vaporize the thing, and it hits the ground and demolishes a fortunately uninhabited area of ground," Diggle tells CBR News in an interview about the release of Predator vs. Judge Dredd vs. Aliens: Incubus and Other Stories. "Turn the page. Cue close-up of tech Judges in radiation gear looking down into this crater. Superman is lying at the bottom of it. He's basically been blasted into a parallel dimension by a device created by Lex Luthor, which has partly depowered Superman.
"He's not as super as he used to be, partly also because of all the pollution in the atmosphere of Dredd's world. It's called the death belt, this layer of pollution and junk thrown up in the upper atmosphere by nuclear war. It cuts out the sun's rays, which depower Superman a bit. Dredd is not going to like having an illegal alien running around in his city. Superman is not going to be very keen on this fascist version of justice. It's no longer truth, justice and the American way, because it's no longer America: It's Mega-City One, creep!"
And that's only the beginning, he assures. Although he has the story plotted out, it seems unlikely DC Comics will be in crossover mode in the near future. But if that changes? Diggle would "absolutely" be up for it.

Book Expo America is the annual trade show where publishers promote their upcoming books to retailers and librarians. BEA is all about books, but comics and graphic novels are a growing presence. Diamond had a dedicated area, as it has in previous years, several comics publishers had their own booths, and several of the big publishers featured graphic novels alongside their other titles, most notably Hachette, which gave quite a bit of space to Yen Press.
I spent Friday at the show looking at which books the publishers were drawing the most attention to. Here's a very subjective account of what I saw.
Kid stuff! Children's and YA graphic novels have been hot for a couple of years, and the news that Raina Telgemeier's Sisters is getting a 200,000 copy initial print run got a lot of buzz. Of course, the BEA crowd has been on board with her work for a while, and they lined up in droves for her book signing. The same was true of Jeff Kinney, who was signing copies of The Wimpy Kid School Planner at the Abrams booth; the crowd just kept on coming. And the staff at the BOOM! Studios table were hustling as attendees grabbed copies of their Adventure Time and Bravest Warrior collections as well as their third original Peanuts graphic novel, Peanuts: The Beagle Has Landed, which takes Snoopy to the moon.
Brass Sun, by Ian Edginton and INJ Culbard, is a hero's journey set in a special kind of universe: an orrery, a model of the solar system, created eons ago by a blind clockmaker who set it up so that the different worlds would coexist in peace, giving each one a piece of the key that keeps it moving.
Over the years, power has shifted among the different worlds, and now the universe is starting to wind down, icing up at its extremities. It's up to Wren, a 12-year-old girl whose grandfather was executed by the quasi-religious authorities for the heresy of speaking about the problem, to locate the missing pieces of the key and reboot the universe. Her quest takes her through a series of adventures in vividly imagined worlds, connected by the brass arms of the giant orrery.
The story originally appeared in the pages of the British weekly 2000AD, but Rebellion/2000AD is re-releasing it as a monthly miniseries for the U.S. market, beginning next week. We spoke with Edginton about the story, and were also provided with a preview of the first issue.
Shirts based on comics characters isn't anything new, but Judge Dredd and 2000AD publisher Rebellion recently partnered with the U.K. T-shirt boutique Last Exit to Nowhere to produce this amazing-looking design. Although it's based on the film iteration of Dredd rather than the comic itself, it's still a shirt well worth owning — even with the additional expense of shipping outside the United Kingdom.
Although a new profile of Grant Morrison closes with the promise of the third and final volume of Seaguy in 2014, his collaborator Cameron Stewart cautions excited fans that "It's still a long way off."
Published ahead of Morrison's appearance at the Edinburgh International Book Festival, the Guardian article focuses primarily on the newly retitled Wonder Woman: The Trial of Diana Prince, and touches upon some recent personal losses, his dispute with Rebellion over the Zenith rights and — seemingly out of nowhere — his, let's say, complicated history with Mark Millar before ending on the long-awaited conclusion of Seaguy.
"It's honestly the best I've ever written," he says of the saga that began in 2004. "It never sold well, but it's my thing. I want Seaguy to remain as my statement about life and death and the universe."
But while The Guardian asserts the final miniseries, presumably still titled Seaguy Eternal, is "due out next year," Stewart suggests that timeline is a bit optimistic.
"INB4 everyone assuming Seaguy 3 is done or even a work in progress, when I have still not even received a script," he wrote this morning on Twitter. "Which isn't to say I've been sitting around waiting for a script that isn't coming — I've been busy, so has Grant. It's still a long way off."
Also of note from the Morrison interview:
In comics, just as in television or film, there are countless unsung production staff tirelessly toiling to keep us entertained. To use a sporting analogy, working in the reprographics department of a comic publisher is the goalkeeper's job: You rarely get the praise for keeping a clean sheet, but you're the first one to get the blame if it all goes wrong. Meanwhile, the writers and the artists are at the other end, scoring all the goals, and getting all the glory.
Doing this often-thankless task in the skeleton crew that produces 2000AD is Kathryn "Kat" Symes. One thing the small backroom staff at their Oxford, England, base are known to do very well these days is manage the amazing back-catalog of material the title has accrued during its 35 years of continuous publication. If you're a seasoned 2000AD spotter, you'll have noticed how they've been reprinting a lot of strips from the early 1990s recently, a time sometimes known as "2000AD's brown period." It was an era when a post-Bisley trend for painted artwork coincided with too-absorbent paper stock, and a steep learning curve for the staff as it settled in to being a full-color magazine after years of primarily black and white, which led to an awful lot of muddy-looking comics.
Symes seems to be on a single-handed quest to redeem an era of neglected comics through her work. In this interview with ROBOT 6, she gives a tremendous insight into what now goes on behind the scenes in bringing a comic to print, and provides some great examples of how her nuts-and-bolts work with scanners and image manipulation software can breath new life into the old, the faded and the damaged material in 2000AD's archives.
The U.K. comics community has been getting its knickers in a twist over the whole Ian Gibson/Bristol Comic Expo "nude Halo Jones" saga. Twitter and Facebook completely blew up over it Thursday morning, with the usual mix of knee-jerk condemnation and some occasional voices of reason rising above the din.
Some sterling detective work by Paul Holden revealed that the image at the center of the dispute wasn't even originally Halo Jones, but a character from Gibson's long-gestating LifeBoat strip. I'm glad, because some of the criticism on the matter sailed too close to being personal attacks on Gibson, which made me uncomfortable for a number of reasons. For starters, "The Ballad of Halo Jones" is a longtime cause celebre for those arguing for creators' rights within the United Kingdom, especially in the matter of how oppressive the old status quo of IPC and DC Thomson could be.
Gibson is the co-creator of Halo, but sees little to no financial reward from (current owner of 2000AD) Rebellion's continuing exploitation of the character. If Gibson were to somehow try and monetize his history with the character by working on commissions or selling limited-edition prints featuring the strip's cast, would that be such a bad thing? The perspective of fans and publishers on such issues is radically different: After all, Marvel sued Ghost Rider co-creator Mike Friedrich for a similar matter. Besides, the Bristol Expo website makes it clear that all these limited-edition prints are being sold for charity.

Creators | Grant Morrison looks back on his run on Action Comics, which ends today with the release of Issue 18, and touches upon Multiversity and his long-discussed Wonder Woman project: "This is some of the most fun I've had in a long time, because it's a completely different type of comic book. Usually I don't do masses of research, but for Wonder Woman, I've actually been working my way through the entire history of feminism. I want this to be fucking serious, you know? I want this to be really, really good, to reflect not only what women think, but what men think of women. I'm trying to do something really different from what's been done with the character before. That one's been amazing fun, because it's nothing like anything I've ever done before." [Entertainment Weekly]
The venerable British anthology 2000 AD will now available digitally worldwide, through the Apple Newsstand, the same day copies go on sale in the United Kingdom. That's good news, certainly, for U.S. fans.
"Making 2000 AD as accessible as possible is something we've been working towards for some time," Editor Matt Smith said in an announcement on the magazine's website. "For the first time we can offer easy, quick digital subscriptions so that readers can download the latest issue with a single push of a button. If you've ever had trouble getting hold of the latest 2000 AD, don't like waiting for the physical Prog to reach your shores, or you just want the ease of having digital copies then our new app is ideal."
As an introduction for new readers, Rebellion is offering a free 69-page sampler issue featuring such recent 2000 AD stories as "Judge Dredd: Day of Chaos," "Zombo" and "Ichabod Azrael."
Subscribers can save up to 24 percent, and gain free access to a range of back issues. Single issues can be purchased for download for $2.99; a one-month subscription is $10.99, while three months is $2.99. An entire year goes for $109.99.

If I had $15, I'd start things off with Hawkeye #1 (Marvel, $2.99). David Aja's built up a great track record from his run on Iron Fist to his various one-off issues in and around the Marvel Universe, so seeing him re-team withIron Fist co-writer Matt Fraction is something special. Without creators like these I'd probably balk at a Hawkeye series, but they make this a must-buy. After that I'd get another first issue, Image's Harvest #1 (Image, $3.50). AJ Lieberman's quietly written a number of great stories, and this one seems pretty inventive. I might've waited for the trade on this, but newcomer Colin Lorimer's art on it makes me think he's going to be a big deal and I need to know about it. For the bronze in my $15 pile, it's Avengers Vs. X-Men #9 (Marvel, $3.99). This week, Jason Aaron and Andy Kubert take point, re-teaming from their great but under-appreciated Astonishing Wolverine and Spider-Man series from a while back. Lastly, I'd get Daredevil #16 (Marvel, $2.99) because Waid is bringing his A-game, and the recent addition of Chris Samnee only makes it even more impressive. The previews for this issue shows guest appearances by Ant-Man, Doctor Strange and Iron Man, so it'll be interesting to see how Waid factors them into Matt's world.
If I had $30, I'd get Thief of Thieves #7 (Image, $2.99), which is becoming one of my favorite Image books and Nick Spencer's finest at the moment. Having Shawn Martinbrough draw it only helps. After that, I'd get Earth 2 #4 (DC, $2.99). James Robinson is really living up to the "New 52" moniker by giving us one of the most imaginative and different takes on the DCU, and Nicola Scott is drawing up a storm here. After that, I'd tie things up with RASL #15 ($4.99). Jeff, you get my money sight unseen.
If I could splurge, I'd take a chance and order Absalom: Ghosts of London (2000 AD, $17.99) because it looks pretty great. British cops governing over an ages-old pact between the English government and hell? Hell yeah.

If I had $15, Casanova: Avaritia #4 would be the first thing I'd pick up. I've been enjoying Matt Fraction and Gabriel Ba's return to their dimension-hopping super-spy immensely and am looking forward to seeing how it all wraps up.
If I had $30, I'd make the difficult choice between two top-notch offerings from Fantagraphics this week. One: New York Mon Amour, a collection of Manhattan-themed stories by the one and only Jacques Tardi, including the Kalfkaesque "Cockroach Killer." The other would be the third volume in the ongoing Mickey Mouse collection, High Noon at Inferno Gulch. I'm an unabashed Floyd Gottfredson fan, so the Mickey book would probably win out. But I'd be sure to save my coins for next week so I can get the Tardi book then.
Assuming I don't blow all my splurge dough on the Tardi book, there's a number of solid options here: Out of the Shadows, a collection of Mort Meskin's early non-DC work; Bill the Boy Wonder, a new prose biography of Batman co-creator Bill Finger; and a Challengers of the Unknown Omnibus featuring Jack Kirby's run. If I were in a charitable mood, however, I'd likely snap up Team Cul de Sac, the anthology/art book/tribute to Richard Thompson's delightful comic strip featuring contributions from folks like Lynn Johnston, Mort Walker, Gary Trudeau and even Bill Watterson! Proceeds from the book go to help fight Parkinson's disease, which Thompson unfortunately suffers from. It's hard for me to think of a more worthy – or potentially enjoyable – book to spend your money on this week.

Is there a plugin or hack for v1.5 that will e-mail readers when there is a new post?
yes! a great one here:
Can this be incorporated as an option into the next version of WP please?
Especially useful for replies to posts.
Thanks for the kind words, vikosta!
clappingtree: this feature is really not the best use of resources for most blogs. I wrote my plugin because one site that I manage (but to which I do not contribute) is read primarily by people unfamiliar with content aggregation (RSS and ATOM). Content aggregation is a far better mechanism for update notification. It uses less resources on both the client and the server; it benefits from working in aggregate (sites likes bloglines fetch the latest update and then all bloglines subscribes for that site can read the update, representing massive savings in bandwidth); and subscribing to content is strictly a client-side operation: you don't need to fork over your email to a potentially unscrupulous site looking to sell a subscriber list.
If my plugin works for some folks, I think that's great. I think it'd be even better if everyone using my plugin would make modest efforts toward educating their subscribers about the wonder (and power) of content syndication.
Yes but then the goal is to get people to come to your site and sometimes an email is the best way.
This topic has been closed to new replies.

Body Signsby Joan Liebmann-Smith, Jacqueline Egan
View All Available Formats & Editions
We all notice things about our bodies that don't seem quite right. But when are these simply harmless physical quirks and when are they signs that a visit to the doctor is in order? This comprehensive and fascinating guide covers every body part from head to toe—and everything in between—to help you decode the often mysterious messages your body sends you.
From brittle hair to hair in all the wrong places, a tingling tush, mismatched eyes, streaked nails, inverted nipples, and excessive flatulence, to name just a few, the body supplies endless signs regarding its state of health and wellness. Most of the time these require nothing more than a trip to the drugstore or cosmetic counter, or no treatment at all. At other times further attention is needed. So here's the lowdown on what's happening "down there," the scoop on poop, straight talk about your joints, and a host of essential, even entertaining information on everything you ever wanted to know about your body—but might have been hesitant to ask even your doctor.
Drawn from cutting-edge research and the latest scientific literature, and vetted by a panel of medical experts, this remarkable book also includes historical trivia and fascinating factoids about each body area in question, plus an invaluable resource section. Whether you have a health concern or simply enjoy playing medical detective, Body Signs will not only absorb and inform you but will help you gain a more intimate understanding of the wondrous workings of your body.
From the Hardcover edition.
Editorial Reviews
Medical sociologist Liebmann-Smith and medical journalist Egan have compiled descriptions of "body signs" to help adults differentiate minor physical issues from symptoms of disease or disorder. Covering head to toe in nine chapters is ambitious, but the authors do not claim comprehensiveness. The descriptions for a tingling posterior, streaked nails, extreme flatulence, and other signs are brief; simple graphics illustrate concepts or anatomy. Scattered throughout are "signposts," captions meant to inform or warn but more often distract the reader; some don't match the adjacent text, and at least two appear twice in the galley copy. The nonalphabetic arrangement of body signs also makes access challenging, and some of the content is irrelevant for lay readers, e.g., the signpost on CREST, a physicians' mnemonic for detecting limited scleroderma. Ultimately, this blend of important information with entertaining tidbits is awkward and hard to navigate. Not recommended.

Chapter One
Your Hair
The Long and the Short of It
Hair defines us like no other part of the human body. It conveys to others an enormous amount of information: our age, gender, ethnicity, social status, religious and other group affiliations, personal hygiene habits, and—last but not least—our state of health. Yet the assumptions some people make based on our hair may be as false as their eyelashes. We can cover the gray, making us appear years younger; cut our hair very short or let it grow very long, making it difficult to determine our gender; or straighten curly hair or curl straight hair, making our ethnicity anyone's guess. And by adopting the hairstyles of the rich and famous, we can look like we're to the manor born when we may be struggling to make (split) ends meet.
Hair is overflowing with sexual symbolism and cultural significance. People in many parts of the world routinely—if not religiously—cover or remove it. English barristers, for example, wear wigs in court. Muslim and Orthodox Jewish women are required to cover their heads. And not only do Buddhists and some Christian monks shave their heads, but skinheads do as well.
While we're busy sending messages to the outside world by covering, cropping, curling, or coloring our hair, we should also pay attention to the messages it's sending us. Our untouched, natural hair can give us a headful of vital information that we should carefully read and heed. Your age, sex, and race, as well as where you live and the hair products you use, all affect your hair's mineral makeup.
Hair contains a myriad of minerals, from aluminum to zinc, and for many years hair analysis has been used to confirm mercury and arsenic poisoning. More recently, researchers have been able to diagnose eating disorders from hair samples.
Indeed, the quality, quantity, and color of our hair can all be signs of our physical well-being. No wonder hair is said to be a barometer of health.
Starting at the top
Hair texture changes
Hair is made up mostly of dead protein (keratin), but that doesn't mean it's supposed to lie there listlessly. Dry, brittle hair and split ends can all be signs that you're mistreating your hair with excessive washing, brushing, drying, dyeing, or bleaching. However, these hair shaft disorders, as they're called, can also be signs of stress, hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies, and thyroid disease.
If you notice, for example, that your formerly luxuriant locks tangle easily or have become dry, brittle, or coarse, don't be so quick to rush off and buy the latest expensive new hair product. You may, in fact, have the classic signs of hypothyroidism—a fairly common but often underdiagnosed condition, especially among women. (See Appendix I.) When the thyroid gland, which regulates metabolism, fails to produce enough thyroid hormone, hair growth—as well as other body functions—slows down. Hair texture change can signal iodine deficiency as well, which is also implicated in thyroid disease. (See Chapter 6.)
Of course, texture changes may merely be an indicator of the natural hormone changes of pregnancy or menopause. During pregnancy, dry hair may become oilier or shinier, while oily hair can become drier and duller. Previously curly hair may become straighter and straight hair curlier. Hair may even become thicker, but this is due to the slowing down of normal hair loss that typically occurs in pregnancy rather than the thickening of individual hairs. (See Hair Loss in Women, below.)
During menopause, when estrogen levels drop, many women notice that their hair lacks softness and luster. The estrogen loss can cause hair shafts to thin and dry out, so new hairs will be duller and less manageable. New hair growth also tapers off
Both hair texture change and hair loss are also common reactions to chemotherapy or radiation treatment for cancer. The good news is that both these changes are usually temporary.
Hair color changes
Hair color, like eye and skin color, depends primarily on how much melanin (color-producing pigments) we inherit from our parents.
If your hair color changes and you haven't been hitting the bleach or hair dye bottle, it can be a sign of a variety of factors, both internal and external. For example, hair color—like hair texture—can change temporarily after chemotherapy. A blonde may become dismayed to find her hair growing in dark brown or black, while a former brunette may be thrilled to find that she's become a blonde. Hair color changes can also signal genetic, metabolic, nutritional, or other disorders. They can even be the result of environmental factors.
Green Hair
Many of us look forward to our hair getting lighter from the summer sun. But if your hair looks more green than platinum, it's not the sun's fault. It's more likely to be a tip-off that your swimming pool is heavily chlorinated, or that copper from water pipes is seeping into your pool water. In fact, green hair used to be fairly common among copper- and brassworkers.
If you haven't been swimming lately, your sea-green hair can be a sign that you enjoy bathing in a tub that's been cleaned with chlorine-containing products. If your green hair doesn't seem related to swimming or bathing, it could be a more serious sign of excess exposure to mercury, which can cause neurological, muscular, sensory, and cognitive damage.
Striped Hair
Green hair may be medically unimportant, but striped hair is not. Known as the flag sign, the striped hair is actually bands of discolored or depigmented hair. The stripes—usually blond, gray, or reddish—are often red flags for severe nutritional deficiencies, for example, of protein or iron. Although much more common in underdeveloped countries, the flag sign can be seen in children living in poverty throughout the world.
Striped hair can also signal ulcerative colitis or other conditions or events that deplete protein, such as irritable bowel syndrome (see Chapter 8) or extensive bowel surgery. It might also be a telltale sign of the eating disorder anorexia nervosa, which depletes a person's protein supply.
Prematurely Gray Hair
When most people's hair turns gray, it's usually a normal—albeit not very welcome—sign of aging. As we age, we produce less melanin, the pigment that gives our hair and skin its color. But when your hair turns gray before its time, it can be a harmless, hereditary condition—or a warning sign that something is wrong. The definition of premature graying—medically known as canities—varies among doctors. Some define it as having half a head of gray hair by age 40; others say it's the graying of hair before the age of 20 in whites and before 30 in blacks.
Some people with prematurely gray hair may unknowingly suffer from pernicious anemia, a severe form of anemia in which there is a reduction of red blood cells caused by the body's inability to absorb vitamin B12. Pernicious anemia is commonly found in older adults. Other common signs of pernicious anemia include paleness, weakness, mouth and tongue problems, tingling and numbness in hands and feet, and an unsteady gait. If untreated, it can cause serious gastrointestinal or neurological problems. The good news is that not only is it treated easily, but hair often returns to its natural color.
Early graying can also signal various autoimmune disorders, including Graves' disease, the most common form of hyperthyroidism (see Appendix I). A recent Irish study has identified prematurely gray hair as a sign of low bone mineral density (osteopenia) in women with Graves' disease. Another autoimmune disorder signaled by premature graying, as well as by white patches on the skin, is vitiligo, (see Chapter 9), which is a benign condition. However, 1 in 3 people with vitiligo also suffers from thyroid disease.
Another autoimmune condition, alopecia areata, which is characterized by patchy hair loss, is sometimes spotted in young people with gray hair. (See Spotty or Patchy Hair Loss, below.)
There is also some disquieting new evidence that prematurely gray hair can be an early warning sign of diabetes, coronary heart disease (CHD), and an increased risk of heart attack (myocardial infarction).
Many people think having prematurely gray hair is a sign of stress, and there's some truth to this. One theory is that stress can precipitate autoimmune diseases or the other conditions mentioned above that can cause graying.
Hair Turning White Overnight
While stress may play a role in turning your hair gray, it can't do it overnight. Marie Antoinette's and Sir Thomas More's hair were said to have turned completely white the night before they were beheaded. Despite these and other historical anecdotes, no medical evidence exists that hair can turn white or gray so quickly. Once hair is produced in the hair follicles, individual hairs can't change color. The root of these anecdotes may be diffuse alopecia areata, a condition that is sometimes triggered by stress and causes a lot of hair to fall out very quickly. (See Hair Shedding, below.) If a person with a mixture of gray and pigmented hairs has this condition, the pigmented hairs are the most likely to be shed, leaving behind only the gray or white hair.
Losing it
Our head hair grows about half an inch per month. About 90% of our hair is in this growing (anagen) phase at any one time, which can last from two to six years. The rest is in the resting (telogen) phase, which lasts about two to three months. Then it falls out. On average, our scalps drop about 50 to 100 hairs each day. The exact number usually depends on factors we can't control—heredity, age, gender, and ethnicity. Whether it falls out in clumps or gradually, most of us will experience some hair loss over the course of our lifetimes. By age 50, more than half of women will have lost some locks. But the news is even worse for men. Fully 75% will have lost some hair, and 25% will be bald by that same age.
Spotty or patchy hair loss
If you notice patches of hair missing from your head, it may be a sign of alopecia areata. This is an autoimmune disorder in which the body's white blood cells attack the hair follicles, causing them to stop growing hair. But it's not just scalp hair that can be affected.
Some people lose hair all over their bodies—a condition medically known as alopecia universalis. Some mild forms of the different types of alopecia are amenable to treatment. And sometimes the hair even regrows without any outside help. The bad news is that people with alopecia often have or may develop other autoimmune diseases, especially thyroid disease, diabetes, and rheumatoid arthritis.
Patches of missing hair can also signal trichotillomania, in which people compulsively pull out their head hair or even their eyelashes. This behavioral condition, which is found in 3 to 5% of the U.S. population, is more likely to affect children than adults, but it can occur at any age. It's occasionally mistaken for alopecia areata, but the distinguishing sign of trichotillomania is broken hairs, often of differing lengths. Some hairs also remain in the bald spots. People with this condition often display signs of psychological problems, including depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive behavior, and Tourette syndrome, a neurological disorder that usually starts in childhood and has the hallmark signs of motor and vocal tics. Trichotillomania occasionally runs in families. Indeed, researchers recently found two mutated genes that may be responsible in some cases.
If you have spotty hair loss, your body may also be sending you a strong message that you're overtreating, overbrushing, or overdyeing your hair. Loss of hair because of this is medically known as traumatic alopecia. This is a good example of why you should not listen to old wives' tales about brushing your hair 100 strokes a day. Although your hair may shine more, it may also fall out! Sporting tight ponytails, cornrows, or braids can cause hair breakage and loss as well.
Spotty hair loss may signal a condition called cicatricial or scarring alopecia, in which the follicles are destroyed and replaced by scar tissue. Unfortunately, hair won't grow back with this type of hair loss. Scarring alopecia can be the result of a burn, a physical injury, or anything that can cause a scar elsewhere on the body. It can also be a sign of bacterial and fungal infections—including the dreaded ringworm—and various other skin diseases, such as discoid lupus erythematosus, an autoimmune disorder primarily affecting young women. Unlike the more common (systemic) form of lupus (see Chapter 9 and Appendix I), which involves many parts of the body, discoid lupus affects only the skin, resulting in scarring and hair loss.
Balding in men
If you're a young man and going bald, you may freak out, fearing that you're losing your virility along with your locks. But your balding head is more likely just an unwelcome legacy from a long line of shiny-pated men on either your father's or mother's side. Male-pattern baldness, medically known as androgenetic alopecia, is nothing to worry about, at least medically. It's a genetic condition caused by excess androgens. (Women also have androgens but in lesser amounts.)
However, a recent study of men in their mid-forties with male-pattern baldness found that those with frontal baldness had a slightly increased chance of developing coronary heart disease (CHD) compared with men with no hair loss. Those with hairless crowns (known as vertex baldness) were significantly more likely than their hairy counterparts to develop CHD. The bigger the bald spot, the bigger the risk. Men who were bald on top and also had high cholesterol or high blood pressure were at highest risk.
Hair loss in women
When you part your hair, does it remind you of the parting of the Red Sea? Seeing your scalp shining through can be a sign of female-pattern baldness. Like male-pattern baldness, it is medically known as androgenetic alopecia and can be inherited from either parent. Because of the connection to androgens, female-pattern baldness can be the first warning sign of a type of diabetes that's related to excess androgens.
However, the pattern of balding in women is different than in men. Women are more likely to have thinning head hair rather than the completely bald patches or receding hairlines that are the hallmarks of male-pattern baldness.
Hair loss in women can also be a normal sign of aging and hormonal changes, especially after childbirth and during menopause. Many women experience hair loss a few months after they stop taking birth control pills or hormone replacement therapy. Interestingly, hair loss slows and hair growth accelerates during pregnancy. The result: a fuller- and thicker-looking head of hair. Unfortunately, this windfall doesn't last; three to four months after a woman gives birth, the extra hairs shed rapidly. The good news is that hair growth will return to normal and the new moms will once again have full heads of hair, probably by the time their babies do.
Hair shedding
A ton of hair on the shower floor, in your brush, or on your pillow is not a pretty sight. Medically known as sudden, diffuse hair loss or telogen effluvium, it's the second most common form of hair loss. (Male-pattern baldness takes top place.) In this condition the hairs in the growing (anagen) phase prematurely go into the resting (telogen) phase. (See Losing It, above.) The result: more hairs than usual are cast off. And, as its name implies, the shedding occurs all over the scalp, rather than following a typical pattern of baldness.

There's no need to run for the border anymore.
Brooklyn appears to be erupting with Mexican food restaurants. Rocco's Tacos and Tequila Bar, and potentially Chipotle Mexican Grill, will be opening new outposts Downtown.
Rocco's Tacos has signed a 15-year lease for the ground floor at 339 Adams Street, according to the restaurant. It's taking over the space near Fulton Street where Morton's Steakhouse — which closed in February 2012 — once resided.
This will be the first New York location for the Florida chain. The new restaurant is expected to open by winter 2014.
On top of that, One Metrotech Center - la casa of Brooklyn Paper - is likely to get a Chipotle Mexican Grill restaurant, according to sources in the know.
The first Rocco's Tacos was founded in West Palm Beach, Fla., in 2007. But New York native Rocco Mangel has long wanted to open a restaurant in the city. It's in his blood, he says, his grandfather was the general manager of Copacabana.
"I'm beyond excited to introduce the Rocco's Tacos brand to the New York market," Mangel said. "Growing up in Long Island, I always hoped to open a restaurant in my home state. Brooklyn is a thriving borough that I love and I'm confident that we will be a great addition to the vibe and dining culture."
As for the rumored Chipotle, it's likely to takeover a vacant space on the ground floor that once housed a Chinese food restaurant.Reach reporter Jaime Lutz at email@example.com or by calling (718) 260-8310. Follow her on Twitter @jaime_lutz.

Welcome to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office Narcotics Division website. My name is Captain Eric Coleman and I have been a resident of central Palm Beach County since 1973. Since my law enforcement career began in 1985, I have had the pleasure of serving in a variety of assignments throughout the county at every rank to include: Patrol, Crime Property, Homicide, Crimes against Children/Sex Crimes, Court Services, Internal Affairs and Narcotics.
The Narcotics Division is responsible for enforcing the controlled substances laws and regulations of the United States and the State of Florida. We work very closely with our local, state and federal partners to aggressively investigate those organizations and their members involved in the growth, manufacture, or distribution of controlled substances. We also recommend and support non-enforcement programs aimed at reducing the availability of illicit controlled substances.
The division is also home to the Public Assistance Fraud Taskforce. The PAF taskforce is comprised of local, state and federal agents tasked with investigating fraud involving public assistance funds.
Those of us in public safety realize each day brings new challenges; however, the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office is committed to working with our elected officials, community leaders, and the citizens of this great community to ensure that Palm Beach County remains a safe environment in which to live, work, and raise our families.

Hey guys,
So tomorrow I have my driving test. I'm so nervous. Been waking up super early because I'm so worried I'll fail and can't sleep because of it. I know I can do it, I'm good at parallel parking, have to do a three point turn to get out of my driveway so I know how to do that.
Hey guys,
Okay. Very fangirl type paragraph upcoming. I'm so excited for Living With Ghosts. I love hearing demos, and I love listening to their unreleased song Someone Out There Loves You (Stay), and their covers.
Hello! My name is Sam and, well....I'm kind of an MCR fan.
I want to focus this blog around reviewing music, since I have no other place for it. So, what other place to start than the single from the upcoming The Black Parade reissue, "The Five of Us Are Going To Die".
If you have some knowledge
and here's the anxiety/ worry/ negativity post on how nervous i am to go home.
so the main reason i got that script for propranolol was because i was real nervous that i'd get real anxious at home from all the adjusting i'd have to do.
isn't it grand?
i can't for the life of me, figure out why we like looking back. but i'm going to do that today.
i've been incredibly fortunate in so may ways and not in others.
it's better than nothing, I guess. it's also welcoming new members to the fandom.
I'm so excited for MCRX I'm so happy. I'm glad that I remained an emo kid and I always knew they would reunite. MCRX for life!! ❤
Okay so I've listened to the song several times already and have written down the lyrics. Keep in mind I interpreted them by ear from listening to the song and since it's so rough I can't quite tell what Gerard is saying most of the time, but here they are :)
After all we've done
To our fists and
OH MY GOD I'm so hype for MCRX!! I feel like a kid again lol! Seriously tho this is so crazy. I know it's just a rerelease but I'm so happy, like beyond thrilled. 10 years since Black Parade and about 10 years since I became a fan so yay! Haha
Isn't it funny how you get it in pre-order but is also in Spotify?
Thanks to whoever that decided that.
I like it a lot.
And we're getting all this new(old) stuff and it gives me that weird feeling of cool, but with some kind of nostalgy.
Yep, I wanted them to come back and I built my hopes up a

The real question is what purpose do you have "pointing to the same problems since 2000"? I believe you've stated that you have no position in the stock, so why would you waste your time for the past five years posting as many messages that you do? Everyone that is long in this company is fully aware of the financial issues and frustrated with the past due deadlines - that's why the stock is trading at $3.50! You keep talking about Wall Street - most institutional investors couldn't touch this stock even if they believed in the technology because of the lack of liquidity, so why mention it? If you really believe the technology is worthless and the company will be bankrupt within the next couple of years, then short it. The longs believe that there is a better chance that the stock will be worth $10+ two years from now and have put up their money and most are quietly waiting to see it through. Your pompous postings about patent issues and other technical shortfalls that only you understand (but never back up) are nauseating - tell me you have something better to do for the next two years?
wish I got results this fast with all my trades.this is one of those companies where a lot of the bashing happens because people got burned by the company, or a similar company, during the bubble. I'd be really surprised if at least 1 or 2 of them here weren't former longs.failure, mistakes, going back to the drawing board, lofty dreams, posturing for Wall Street, etc. --- if these people didn't realize that this was part of the game, they got what they deserved.

mouse over "Ortlieb Duffels" which is a Page that has no parent but 4 Child Pages, as you can see in the drop down menu.
then click "Ortlieb Duffels" the parent top level, (not a child in the drop down menu).
this is the Page - http://ortliebdrybags.com/ortlieb-waterproof-duffels/
why doesn't this top level Parent Page display links to its Child Pages? this Parent Page really should have links to the 4 Child Pages and i was hoping Wp had some automated method.
thank you,

No, not at all. I have several BF burners on chimneys.
I feel the only way the death penalty should be used is if there was absolutely no question that the person did it. IE: it's on tape, there was 50 witnesses, etc. etc. Or, if he confesses. Whatever....
The whole boiler isn't supposed to last 10 years!!
They are 5 to 7 year throw aways.
Great idea if it works. The rough US economy would be helped by lower oil cost.The average working man would have considerably more extra dough in his pocket. Iran would be weakened by non-violent...
Core, I don't understand what was wrong with the old one. Are you un-nessecarily selling people new equipment??
:) :)
Have you had good luck with the Crowns? I was considering trying one out...
Real nice Core. Only thing I would have done is put a y strainer before the indirect pump. Keeps the mud out.
Water heaters exist. Hot water heaters do not.
Correct this in your future marketing for a more professional image.
Nice rigs.
Amick, the old green oil is now called Brad Penn Racing oil. Same stuff made in the same refinery. Easily available.
Kendall is just made now by the lowest bidder, not the same product.
There are a ton of people putting in coal stokers, the companies who make them can't keep up. We have always had them around here. Lot of coal burners.
Rasmussen's old octopus there is in great...
yeah, same here.
The workmanship is great.However, is Coolman going to be around for the inevitable problems with the Rheem? If you take an oil job, find out what works and install that.
You just installed every...
Should be in Wall of Shame..........
Yeah, really!
I always walked, didn't have a bus where I lived.About a mile and 1/2 to middle school, H.S. was closer.
I don't recall my Parents ever driving me to school.
Oops, sorry. Since you have a brandy new coil, I would lean towards a booster tank. That would solve your problem providing everything else is OK.
We just don't want to see you get the indirect and have the same old problem. That would be expensive.I believe you said that you live alone? There is no reason a coil can't supply one person well.
I have used this boiler labeled as the Thermo-Dynamics HT.I had very good luck with it, best coil performance I have ever seen.
Bobby Likis car clinic. http://www.carclinicnetwork.com
I've used the gas furnaces for probably 15 years, not a high volume, but enough to get a feel for them I guess. The only thing I've done is replace a board and a couple of motors. I don't know of any...
Read thread below-"High LP useage?"- then decide. Just because alot of people are using LP, doesn't mean it's smart.
I've used steel boilers excluvisely for 21 years.The one company I bought out along the way used them for 40 years. No leakers, many still going 40plus years later. Anyone using a Burnham must be...
I agree with John, the air intake combined with the post-purge control you already have will most likely solve the issue.
Non-existant bad economy huh? It will hit you there eventually. Couple more years.
Geeze Maxster, don't send the poor Guy to Long Island.
I say if the Guy wants to come up here, then come on up. He can always go somewhere else later. Like I said, he may love it here.
It sounds like you don't really know alot about the area. It is a different world here. And Binghamton and Syracuse are 5 hours and a world away from the ocean.But on the other hand,maybe you would...
I'm from the area.
A question for any Verizon wireless users not in populated areas- any of you have a particular phone that has good reception? My phone is getting old and I'm just researching. I am going to get an...
Ditto. I think my sunglasses have about 2 inches of dust on them.
Infinity is out of business. The new sensor may not solve the problem.
I think it's just a combustion air issue, being new construction and all. No need to change burners or anything drastic.
Yes, they do. They are fairly easy to find.
I would say that the EK would be the best choice for lowest consumption.
Also, they are pretty reliable,too.
That being said, I have had found that pretty much every other boiler I sell are...
You could just use an electric water heater as a booster. As Wally said, you would use a bronze or SS pump.The electric heater's thermostat will turn the pump on and off.
I like Dow's style. My kind of guy.Amen Brother.
I have no idea where you Guys are or what kind of climate you are in.I don't know how you represent your service dept., 24 hours, or not. All I'm...
I don't understand where some of you are coming from. Are you in warm climates? Being in the heating business in cold regions is a responsibility.We are looking at Health and property damage...
500 degrees? No way. Something is wrong.
I use steel boilers exclusively. I feel the longevity is better. Many steel boilers in my area 30-40 years old.
I've replaced boilers and furnaces on Christmas. Done tons and tons of calls over the years.
I work on some EK's that are 15+ years old. Never have any major problems at all. Been servicing them almost since they were installed.
I have several customers with FR's. I like the boiler. If you like it, I wouldn't hesitate to get one.
Thanks to Dice, I now get queasy every time I see a PT Cruiser.
Sorry my friend, I am thinking Centennial.Not Tempomatic. Been there done that.
Why don't you get back to me in 10 years on how those Williamsons worked out for ya?
Armstrong is a decent economy type furnace. IF you take care of it you should easily get 20 years out of it.
Williamson/Thermoflo- 10 guage drum, every thing else about 18 guage.The warranty on their heat exchanger problem is giving you a glorified muffler clamp thingie to put on the failed section. Thin...

WASHINGTON (AP) - A new government study says fewer teens are
sniffing glue, lighter fluid, spray paint and other inhalants.
But the study also says that the number of adolescents who abuse such substances remained stable between 2002 and 2007, suggesting the need for ongoing prevention and treatment efforts.
According to the study released Monday by the Department of Health and Human Services, almost 1 million youths aged 12 to 17 used some kind of inhalant in 2007.

North Rose here
Welcome, love the U.P
Could you post some pix please?
Just to add a little. With the webbing and rings system you don't need a minimum distance between trees. Where you do with Whoopies.
I use both setups, I just find webbing and rings to be more...
Enough to make a second one? :D
If I treated my day hammock (Eno DN) with Permethrin could I forgo a bug net? I love to just lay out by the lake and watch the sun go down but sometimes the skeeters get the best of me.
What kind of bug net is that? It looks pretty universal and exactly what Im looking for to use on my Eno DN and GTUL.
And information on how I can build or buy one would be greatly appreciated. ...
I do with my gf in a Eno dn. Its not comfie but we make it.
Thank you. How about the other end?
Im not sure if all SRL are adjustable but the one I have looks like a long whoopie. The adjustable end keeps sliding over the hammock.
Could someone please post some pix of the SRL w/ whoopies? How are they hooked to the whoopies?
Suspension: For me, I've found that webbing and rings will rise to any occasion in my area (outside Rochester NY). Fairly light, easily adjustable, No length limit, and can be quickly transferred...
Have been .
Im just throwing a line out to anyone that may have an old set they just wanna get rid of.
Im looking for a good set of used aluminum snow shoes, Im 5-11 about 200lbs.
Ive got about $50.00 total that I have to spend.
Put my name in the hat please.
I won a set of whoopies from the OP and these things are great.
I used the same rings when I started out but they warped out on me after awhile. I'm still using them on one of my hammocks just to see how far they will go before I'm on the ground.
I now have...
Whats the correct side?
It would work but it would be heavy and kinda pointless. I would run a line thru the channels and use a pursik knot to hold the ring. The webbing and rings work just like the cloth belts and it...
Can someone please post a few pix of the Dutch buckle in action for those of use at work (I'm on break of course) that can view the vids?
Could someone please post some close-up pix of your UL w/ whoopies.
Thank you so much!
I'll be visiting your site for the ridgeline, might as well learn to use both at the same time.
Never used either, this could be my first. Please count me in.
It must be an upstate NY thing. If you like bikes and camping we end up here. Welcome from Sodus point.
Just wondering how the GTUL compares to the ENO DN? I love my DN to hangout with the G/F but I'm always looking to try new things and for the price…………………….
Just East of Rochester NY here.
Wait, Which way is it, Hand up or down?
I use webbing and rings on my ENO BN. I work in Clifton springs so if youre interested we could meet up and Ill show you what I use.
I use rings and webbing, but I put slippery halfhitch after.
Im about 15min from Fair Haven shoot me a PM if youd like. we can meet up and go for a ride.
I camp at the Bluff's all the time; I live about 6mi away. BUT I MT bike in or ride the motorcycle so I have it with me when Im camping. As long as youre not partying and rising hell you wont...
He will be fine. He's an upstate NY'er.
Seriously check out the Bluff's. Send me a P.M I may have time quick hike and I got a couple of kayaks if you're into it.
cornfield mafia? I still have a CBR929 stunter and an R1 that I rip out every once in a while. Great bikes but I love the dual sports. There's just something very fun about being able to go down the...
Im out by North Rose NY.
I have a few different bikes but that old (92) DR650 is my favorite. Nobody looks twice at you (unless in a wheelie LOL) low maintenance and a bullet proof motor.
ChimneyBluff's out passed Sodus is nice.
Its about 35mins east down RT104 from you. Turn Left at the 104 / 414 juc and 3mls down the road.
What do you use them for?
+1 Ive made a hammock and tarp outa lumber covers.
And it keeps going up!
Nice ADV sticker
Perfect :thumbup:
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
I've only had it out a handful of times and played with the sag very little. I can get it good for myself but it seems harder to do with the gf.
When I have had the sag set better I got the bathtub...
I know there is a post somewhere, but for the life of me I cant find it again.
I just got an ENO double nest that I switch out the stock suspension for webbing and rings. I double looped 5/32...
You may find someone soft to cuddle up with on those nice sunny days. Then your double nest will be worth its weight in gold, I can ensure you that.
Thats how I did it.
HH is defiantly building on service.
My first hammock was a gatheredend bed sheet. I still used it even after I got a HH and made a few DIY ripstop's. The G/F and I love just hanging out in it down by the lake. Ripped after three...
Approximate build cost?
Also another newbi from upstate NY just stopping by to say howdy. I'm about 35min East Of Rochester NY out by Sodus Point.

The Island is going through a retraction. The property although it may have been sold for 1.5 I doubt if it was worth it. With out the buying frenzy properties are more realistic. It was a fair price for the sq footage. There are a lot of similar properties out here and just be careful make sure it is a good value. there is a lot out there. good luck and if you need honest advise please contact me. It is free and without obligation Skip at firstname.lastname@example.com
Bobbie is correct about the status of the property. It was a very good deal, but there are several others on the island. Please contact me so I can get your housing criteria and get you over a custom home report. Feel free to call or email me.

Research Institution:
AbstractThe quest for deepened understanding of the origin of the universe requires continued search for elementary particles, for which high-energy accelerators are necessary tools. Reducing the size, complexity, and cost for future accelerators is essential if they are ever to be built. New technologies that can underlie future accelerators, be they for basic science or for applications, are needed to meet these goals, including that proposed here. A multi-beam 650 kilowatt peak power pulsed klystron is to be developed to meet Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory requirements for the 3-8 GeV high-energy linac for Project X. This new RF source will be distinguished by its low operating voltage of 22 kilovolts and its long pulse length of 7.5 milliseconds. This grant is to support development of the RF cavity chain and magnetic circuit for the tube.Commercial Applications and Other Benefits: New RF sources with parameters not available for existing sources can find applications in medical therapy, nuclear waste remediation, and industrial processing.
