Artists turn Fond du Lac Ave. into their canvas
In 1842, Johnsons Park was a farm where escaped slave Caroline Quarlls stayed, marking the start of the Underground Railroad in the area. A century after that pocket of the city harbored slaves seeking freedom, and a generation after homes in the neighborhood were razed to make way for a freeway, dislocation remains an ongoing issue for many living and working in and around a swath of Fond du Lac Ave., according to the organizers of a community-driven, yearlong public art project.
The public art initiative along 20 blocks of Fond du Lac Ave., between N. 17th and 37th streets, is designed to help Milwaukeeans rediscover this once vital artery and its history while engaging with artists and each other. »Read Full Article

Candy Chang's 'Before I Die...' comes to Milwaukee
There is something about a death that can be focusing. For New Orleans artist Candy Chang, the loss of a dear friend, initially lead to a long period of grief and depression that eventually turned to gratitude and clarity.
She wanted to know what was important, to her and to those in her around her. So the artist, known for her placemaking projects and urban planning ideas, painted the side of an abandoned building with chalkboard paint and stenciled the words, "Before I die I want to..." onto it. »Read Full Blog Post(1)

Optimus Prime and the Autobots have always had a peaceful relationship with the people of Earth -- but in 2016 that's going to change.
In a new arc kicking off with February's Transformers #50, Optimus Prime is annexing Earth to be a part of Cybertron's Council of Worlds. Humanity is up in arms, not to mention the Decepticons, in this arc titled "All Hail Optimus."
Announced just before IDW Publishing's New York Comic-Con Panel "IDW & Top Shelf: Best Panel Of All Time", the creators of Transformers talked with Newsarama about this shocking event, from what it means to where it goes for the Robots in Disguise and the humans like you and I.
Newsarama: John, Andrew -- what can you tell readers about Transformers #50?
John Barber: Transformers #50 is the biggest thing we've done. It's called "All Hail Optimus," and Optimus Prime annexes planet Earth to become to become part of Cybertron's Council of Worlds—he takes control of Earth to protect it from invasion. Meanwhile, Optimus has thousands of Cybertronian followers who view him as the "True Prime"—they see him as having a power above any elected office, above any "normal" being—and now Optimus is using the power they've handed to him. And he's using it for good—at least as far as he sees it. Not everybody agrees with him.
It's a powerful move on Optimus Prime's part, and one that there's no moving back from. The humans know the Cybertronians are there, are among them, and the people of Earth are forced to become part of a cosmic community.
Andrew and I started working together about… six years ago? And we've never stopped. Most of that time's been on this Transformers series, and this storyline brings together everything we've started. It's amazing to get to work on something so big, and get to collaborate with somebody for so long. It's been a long, great trip—and it's about to get even better!
Andrew Griffith: Yeah, what's great to me about getting to this point is that while a landmark issue like #50 is usually a climax of a story, in our case it's the start of a new storyline that also serves as natural culmination of events that have been building in both Transformers and Windblade.
And I also see it as a bit of a landmark in my time working with John. So hard to believe we and colorist Josh Perez have made it to #50 as the core creative team along with Livio, Casey, Brendan, Guido, Sara and all of the other contributors to the series. Quite a feat in today's comics industry. And the same can be said of Transformers.
Nrama: Who's on Optimus' side in all this?
Barber: The team of Autobots on Earth—at least the ones who've survived to #50—are all with him, plus a new character named Aileron—she comes from Caminus and is amazing to be around this world of Primes and of grand cosmic events. Victorion—the new female Combiner we introduced this summer will be playing a big role. Is she on his side? That's a complex answer. Sunstreaker will play a role, and so will the ancient Alpha Trion.
But his biggest supporters are the Colonists who've arrived on Cybertron, who've lived their whole lives thinking Primes were a myth—and now here they are standing on the same ground as one. And many are willing to do whatever he says—which isn't something Optimus Prime has been comfortable with in the past.
Griffith: It's always nice to be able to draw familiar favorites like Optimus Prime, Sideswipe and Arcee. But it's even better sometimes to get to work with new characters to our book like Sunstreaker and Victorion. I know Josh and myself are particularly excited to get to help establish new characters like Aerlion, Victorion and the Torchbearers. I'm really happy that our cast can consist of childhood favorites like Optimus Prime while also embracing the newest and most diverse of characters to join the continuity.
Now the important question is: We have Sunstreaker coming up. What about Bob?
Nrama: John, I noticed Jonathan Hickman is listed as doing a cover. Can you talk about Hickman's involvement in the title and at IDW?
Barber: I've known Jonathan Hickman since he started writing comics, and he's great—I love his writing, but I also love his drawing and his design sense. I talked to him at Comic-Con International: San Diego last summer, and he'd been doing some variant covers, and I asked if he'd do one for Transformers, and he said yes!
That's all there really is to it, but years ago, I did make him listen to my Transformers plans in a bar. He's probably blocked that memory out.
Griffith: Jonathan Hickman's doing a cover for our book? How rad is that? Can't wait to see it!

CBR News spoke with Scott and Howell about what's next for "Transformers: Windblade," what it means for their title character to learn that Prime may not be the 100% altruistic hero she once believed him to be, and why giant, battling robots provide the perfect allegory to explore themes like politics, war, gender and more.
Starscream has been handling this all magnificently, maneuvering everything into place. Has it been fun to get to have him outpace the others and show off his political agility?
Scott: Starscream is one of my favorite characters and I've had a great time revealing just how cunning he is. He also has a big advantage because everyone else in the book wears their heart on their sleeve. Windblade wants to save Caminus. Optimus wants to save Cybertron. And Starscream just wants to do whatever's best for Starscream. That makes him a lot more flexible than our other characters, and he uses that flexibility to its fullest extent. When Starscream sent Swindle and Menasor to Caminus, I saw a lot of people exclaiming that this would be Starscream's last mistake, and by the end of "Combiner Wars" he'd be ousted from power. I think underestimating Starscream is a lot of people's biggest mistake.
Scott: So at the end of "Combiner Wars," Caminus and Cybertron are now connected via SpaceBridge, and the Cybertronians have learned of at least four other colonies. Windblade's new mission is to make first contact with these worlds and somehow convince them to ally with Cybertron's new Council of Worlds, but each colony will have its own unique challenges she'll have to deal with. We're also kicking open a lot of doors to continuities that haven't been explored much in IDW. We're including a whole lot of new Transformers, many of which fans will know from other iterations of the brand throughout the years.
The Transformers comics seem to handle sci-fi as allegory more capably than anyone else is able to right now. What is it about the Universe which makes them so suitable to introduce themes of politics, war, gender and the like?
Howell: I think it's because when you get to see huge talking robots fighting, you can be sneaky with some bigger themes like political disputes and rivalries or the cause and costs of war. Everyone reads it to have fun, but they come away with a little bit more than that -- or at least that's the hope, anyway.
Scott: When you are dealing with alien robots, you have just enough distance between you and the subject that you can explore difficult ideas and themes much more comfortably. "Transformers" as a brand has always dealt with war, battle fatigue, prejudice and factionalism. And while our main goal is to tell a really great story, it's always my hope that we're giving people the chance to explore the rationale, emotions and beliefs of people they wouldn't get the chance to do in real life.
Was it a conscious choice to pick characters from so many different versions of the franchise and unite them here?
Scott: My goal for introducing more diversity to the brand has always been about opening as many doors as possible. I never want a writer to think "I can't introduce Character X because they have no place in this universe." So Caminus got the ball rolling on introducing female Transformers, but now all these other colonies will have female Transformers, too. My next thought was how can we push this further and introduce more bots. I realized that we had a lot of G1 and G2 bots but what if you grew up with "Beast Wars" or "Animated" or any of the later generations of Transformers? I wanted something for those viewers, too. These colonies have allowed me to open even more doors and create a whole universe of possibilities for future stories and future characters. I want any fan no matter their age or what iteration of the brand they grew up with to be able to see their favorite Transformer fitting in to the story.

The producer and head writer for Cartoon Network's "Robots in Disguise," Beechen shared with SPINOFF how he's working to open up Transformers to a younger audience while building on the stories that have come before. He also explained what it's like to tap "Batman Beyond's" Will Friedel as the voice of Bumblebee, teased the show's long-term mysteries about the fate of Optimus Prime, and more.
Spinoff Online: Over the past few years, Hasbro has kept the continuity from all their various "Transformers" franchises unified in one way or another between TV and video games and comics. This show is a step forward in that idea since it takes the premise past the "Autobots and Decepticons crash-landed on Earth." What's it like to be writing what is the forefront of the canon in some respect?
Adam Beechen: I think that I had the benefit coming in of never having worked on the Transformers franchise before. I didn't write for "Prime." And so I wasn't as emotionally tied to all of the continuity elements that a lot of the people who had worked on that show had been. And it's great that they are because they're a wonderful resource for me to find out background info I need. But my main goal coming into this series was, "Let's make this a show for Bumblebee. Let's give him the exposure he hasn't really had in a brand new way." And as part of that, we get to introduce a bunch of new characters for a new generation of viewers that they can get attached to. It's still part of the larger Transformers universe, but you don't have to know 30 years of history to enjoy them, appreciate them and just have fun.
And the show then can serve as a bridge tonally between "Rescue Bots" and "Transformers Prime." The kids aging out of "Rescue Bots" can jump onto "Robots in Disguise" and still feel at home. But at the same time, they have a little bit more serious adventures with a little bit higher stakes. And then they can ease into all the giant continuity that the series have put together.
Is it liberating as a showrunner when you work with a company like Hasbro and you have a guaranteed order for a long run on the series?
It doesn't so much change your approach, but you know how many episodes you have, so you pace out the story you're telling accordingly. Typically what happens in a situation like this is that at the start of the season you sit down with the brand team and find out what their plans are in terms of the upcoming seasons – as in calendar seasons – for what toys they're releasing when and what kind of story elements they'd like to see in the upcoming episodes. You have that meeting and plan out episodes according to that, but doing so in a way that tells the best possible stories. You're not just cramming toys in there. You want to tell a cool story and help with what they're doing as well. And it just runs from there.
It's pretty rare that a brand will come back to you in the middle of your season and say, "By the way, we've come up with a new figure that will be on the shelves of the toy stores tomorrow. Get it into the next episode!" There's not any time for things like that. So after that initial meeting, you're well aware of what you want to do over the course of the season and how to make everyone happy. From there, you're free to tell the coolest stories you can.
And what about the comics side of all this? Frequently, there will be a kid-friendly comic version that ties into the show in a way that fleshes out what we see on screen. Is that the case for July's series from IDW?
We're very aware of what's happening with the comics, and we love what IDW has done with this world. That factors into our thinking, and we've had the good fortune of having one of the key comic book writers – Mairghread Scott, who you may or may not be familiar with – work with us. Mairghread was the script coordinator on our series, and she graduated quickly to being one of the key writers on the show. She is a living repository of all things Transformers, and so she knows what's gone on across every single medium the characters have ever appeared in. As we were working, she'd say, "The comics have already been there. You may want to do something different with an episode." Or she may say to the comic editors, "The show did this thing, so it would be kind of cool if you tied it in this way." I can't say for sure how all the comics will reflect the series, but we're definitely aware of each other as we go forward

To say that Tom Scioli and John Barber's Transformers vs. GI Joe is an unusual comic is underselling things quite a bit. On paper, it's a natural fit, an ongoing series that follows in the footsteps of earlier books that have combined the two toy lines into one massive interplanetary battle. In practice, though, it's something a lot bigger, a comic that almost assaults the reader by cramming in as much big, wild stuff as it possibly can — a toy comic so weird, and so great, that it almost feels like it shouldn't exist.
With the book's second storyline well under way, throwing in everything from Vikings to old gods to Dinobots (and a new printing of his amazing American Barbarian on the way this summer), I talked to cowriter, artist and occasional ComicsAlliance guest contributor Tom Scioli about the series. Today, he talks about building a history for a universe that's even more important than our own, the two-page Free Comic Book Day story, and why his book isn't a paean to Snake Eyes. You can read the first part of this interview here.
CA: The next specific scene that I wanted to talk about was the first page of #6. Every time I think this comic can't get any wilder, it gets bigger and weirder in a way that I find really enjoyable. This comic opens with Adam and Eve being expelled from the Garden of Eden by floating Transformers with laser swords.
TS: Yeah.
TS: It's a universe. It's a whole universe. My thought is that the Transformers vs. GI Joe universe is the most important universe there is, and while you're reading it, it's even more important than our universe. There's an Alpha to that universe and there's an Omega to that universe, and what you were witnessing was Roadblock's reading of the Cobra Bible, the Decepticobranomicon, so what you're reading may well be an actual accounting of what happened. It might be mythology. It might be disinformation. It could be any number of things. There's a deep history to this world.
CA: I've said this before, and I mean it in the best way possible, but I'm always surprised this book exists.
TS: Right. [Laughs]

ComicsAlliance: The first thing I want to talk about is pacing. Jumping into Transformers vs. GI Joe #5, which is the start of the second paperback if people are reading it that way, they're getting a comic that moves so fast that it is often hard for me to keep up.
Tom Scioli: Well, issue #5 would be the one, because issue #5 is where it really accelerates. I just find that so many comics have a lot of redundancy, a lot of over-explaining, a lot of images of basically the same thing, so part of the approach is to just eliminate redundancy and just give you the things you need to move the narrative forward. I sort of crossed a point of no return with it, I think, and where that came from is that I wrote a script for a Transformers vs. GI Joe movie adaptation.
You know, the movie doesn't exist yet, but I made a comic as though I was adapting a movie, and how movie adaptations are. There are chunks missing, and jumps because of the time it takes to take an hour and a half movie and put it into a comic, you're going to have to cut some things out. I wrote something with that sort of style in mind, and after I did that, I realized that's a tool I could use any time. It doesn't have to be restricted to this particular conceit, it's just a tool in my arsenal now. It was really effective in that script, which hasn't come out yet, but it was just a really intense reading experience.
CA: The interesting thing about that to me is that, like you said, there have been Transformers and GI Joe team-up books before, and now you're doing it as an ongoing series and using the entire cast of both books, as they have existed for thirty years. There's not a whole lot left on the table.
TS: That's one thing I noticed. I was sort of going through all these characters and throwing them in, and now I've sort of reached the point where it's like, "Oh, what Decepticon villain can show up?" and most of them are there already, pretty much. There's an endless number of jets that I can go to, but most of the really resonant ones have shown up, so now it's just getting weird, which is actually interesting. Now we're getting into the Pretenders and the Predacons, all the weirder corners of the mythology.
CA: That's something I wanted to bring up, because you're at the point now where you're creating new stuff.
TS: I want to go more in that direction. I thought doing a comic like this, that's an established thing, would be easier — having a universe that's already established that I'm just building up. But I'm seeing the limitations of it. I really do want to just create more and add more to it. It's not so complete a cosmology that there's a character for every season. I thought there would be a character for every occasion, and in a lot of cases there are. I needed a character who was a chef, and, okay, Roadblock is a chef, I can use him. But there are a lot of holes in the mythology that I'm trying to fill in.
That last Transformers movie… they went nuts. It almost wasn't even Transformers anymore, it was this infinite universe of every kind of creature you can imagine, and that freed me up too, realizing that I could make this universe whatever I wanted it to be. It doesn't have to just be giant robots that turn into cars or dinosaurs, it can be a universe.

Who's your favorite character to draw right now?
That's a good question. [Pause] A tie between Skids & Nautica. I always liked to draw Skids since I got to design him for issue 2.
I also have a lot of fun drawing Nautica—right now I'm working on issue 42, which has them interacting, so I'm having a lot of fun drawing my two favorites in the same panel.
On the flip side, who's the most difficult one to work on?
Ah, that's a good question. [A lengthy pause, some muttering] Whoever I haven't drawn a lot of in a long time is usually the hardest one to work on. I don't know, sometimes the hardest one can be Ultra Magnus, just to make sure the scale's right.
Ah, that makes sense.
Other times it can be Getaway. The hardest one I've ever had to draw, that I never feel like I get right, is Red Alert, but he's not on the ship in season two, so I don't have to worry about drawing him right now.
So, um, is there anything else you'd like to talk about that we haven't touched on already?
Hmmm … well, I'm really happy for the inclusion of more female Transformers. Since the preview for issue 41 is out showing more female Transformers, I can only be happy about that. Over the years I snuck in female Transformers in backgrounds. Megatron Origin, the Drift miniseries in the Circle of Light (a faction of Transformers). They make the world bigger; the more the merrier. Now it's better that I don't have to sneak them in, and I'm like, "Yes, they're there!" I've been rooting for them for eight years now; we need more!
That makes me really happy to hear, coming from you. Did you design Firestar's flame hair, as seen in the issue 41 preview?
Yes, it was me who came up with Firestar's hair. When designing characters, I ask myself, "How can i make interesting character designs?" I look at silhouettes, heads. What's a standard head, what's different?
l looked at different things; when I was designing her I designed her altmode first. I put her head in the altmode's back as the exhaust. I asked myself, "Can I get away with fire for hair?" But since it's the exhaust for the car, it kinda works. I thought about how'd it work for portraying different emotions. If knocked out, she'd have little blue flame or it'd be snuffed out. If enraged, her hair expands and just goes nuts. It's a great way to show emotion.
I had the altmode and head design, took it to James, and said, "James, this is the idea." He went, "That's really cool! I have fire for hair [to work with]." It's really different, and it makes her stand out among other characters.
Along with the other female Transformers, I started thinking about different designs that haven't been done before. I've got to post them online so other people can see her. There's a big female Transformer I want to show off, one who doesn't have a standard head at all, but one singular eye. It was really fun to do. It's just really fun to try new things, to see whats out there.
Transformers is all about change; you don't have to be stuck to the standard. The big thing with Firestar was keeping in elements of the original design. When IDW started out with Transformers, they'd take a character and do something completely different; it's how I did her design.

JB: What was your entry into the world of Transformers—as a fan, I mean? Do you have a favorite version of Transformers from over the years?
GB: I was parked in front of every episode of Transformers G1 in the 1980s but I couldn't convince my mother to buy me any of the toys. She was a huge toy collector and had no problem showering me with Star Wars figures but Transformers just didn't speak to her. After tons of pathetic begging she bought me one: Topspin, a Jumpstarter who sort-of-kind-of popped onto his feet when you pulled him backwards.
GB: I missed out when the movie was in theaters due to the same lack of parental interest—I saw it years later on TV and turned it off when Starscream died, because without Starscream around I just didn't see the point. I returned to Transformers with Transformers: Prime, then jumped into the comics and bought my own toys, although my daughter's plan to "share" the Bumblebee I got for my birthday isn't working out in my favor. Now if only someone would take nine boxes of Star Wars figures off my hands.
JB: This new TRANSFORMERS ROBOTS IN DISGUISE comic is based on the all-new hit tv series airing on Cartoon Network. But this comic isn't an adaptation—it's all-new stories set in that world, but with… well, without giving anything away, some old friends you're only going to see in the comic, right?
GB: The stories tie into the continuity the show shares with Transformers Prime and what happens in the cartoon will have consequences in the comic. But the comic will also feature new villains and explore different themes. There will be squabbles and there will be punching, but the first arc weaves in an element of mystery and betrayal. Bumblebee has to put the pieces together and he may not get them in the right order. I like resolving subplots in one or two issues within the context of a longer ongoing story, I'm not a fan of ending an issue without getting somewhere.
JB: What do you think of TRANSFORMERS ROBOTS IN DISGUISE artist Priscilla Tramontano's work? Have you two had a chance to collaborate much yet?
GB: This will be my first time working with Priscilla, who I was familiar with mainly for her color work in the comics. I love the somewhat organic feel she brings to the characters that lets them act out their emotions, she's the perfect choice.
JB: Any other messages for Transformers fans out there?
GB: Transformers Robots in Disguise is accessible to new readers and is all about action and fun. Plus Autobots punching weird Decepticons in the face.

Practice areas & skills: Personal Injury, Criminal Defense, Chapter 7 Bankruptcy
A personal injury lawyer works with clients who have suffered a physical or emotional injury, usually by accident or mistake. They cover cases such as car accidents, botched surgery, and harassment. Personal injury attorneys know how the insurance claim process works, they know what evidence to gather, and they know how to calculate and present a claim for damages. Many personal injury attorneys take cases on a contingency basis, which means they receive an agreed-upon percentage of the payment you receive, also called the personal injury settlement. If you don't recover any money, they don't get paid their fee. Personal injury lawyers also know how to defend you if someone thinks an injury is your fault.

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump battle over infrastructure needs, while Trump faces growing opposition from fellow billionaires. Also: the ups and downs of Europe's lenders after a stress test with no fail grade, and why Uber is ceding to Didi the ride-sharing crown in China.
Trump Inc rapidly turning from virtue to vice
Real-estate success helped him win the GOP nomination, but there's growing scrutiny of his record. Fellow New York mogul Mike Bloomberg led the charge at the Democratic convention. Trump's long trail of slippery business dealings will make his policy proposals harder to stand up.
Cox: Bloomberg's White House hurdle is Wall Street
The media mogul mayor may yet try to be U.S. president. Hands down he'd be the richest contender ever. It would take extreme candidates Bernie Sanders and Ted Cruz as nominees for Michael Bloomberg to run. The bigger issue is that he'd have his deep ties to finance to explain.
NYC plan needs Financier Bloomberg not Mayor Mike
Privatizing 90,000 parking spaces could raise billions to head off looming budget deficits. But as Chicago showed, such deals can sacrifice long-term revenue for short-term relief. Political expediency should take a backseat in the Big Apple. A joint venture would work better.

Building your own deer hunting blind and having a successful hunt from it can be very satisfying and rewarding. Homemade deer blinds allow you to ambush deer unnoticed and are easier on the pocketbook than buying one.
An Effective But Cheaper Alternative
A blind can be a very effective method for hunting deer. There are many different types of deer hunting blinds on the market today that may serve well, but a homemade deer hunting blind, or box blind as it is known, can be much cheaper and just as effective when done correctly.
What to Acknowledge When Choosing a Location
Carefully plan the location of the blind, keeping in mind deer travel routes and the prominent wind direction. Pay attention to the sun's direction during the time of day you primarily plan to hunt the deer blind. Building a blind and hunting it only to have the sun in your face can be deflating. The earlier you build the blind before hunting deer, the better. Deer need time to get used to changes to their environment. Build the hunting blind one or two months before you plan to hunt in it.
Blind Construction Materials
Use treated lumber to deter bugs from eating the wood. Construct one to four walls using 2-by-4 studs and plywood sheeting. The number of walls will be determined by the setting of the blind. If you have one or more natural walls like a rock pile or brush, then you only need to build the remaining number of walls to total four. The idea is to conceal any movement you will be making.
Cutting Windows and Painting
Cut window holes in the walls wherever needed to be able to see deer and to get a clean shot. Use whatever you will be sitting on such as a tripod chair or bucket to determine the height of each window. Paint the walls before transporting them to the desired location. The paint will help conceal the deer blind and help protect the wood against Mother Nature. Use flat paint to eliminate any glare or shine. Choose colors that are natural to the environment for the outside of the walls. Paint the inside of the walls a flat black. If an entry point is not available from one of the natural walls, cut one of the holes big enough to easily get in and out. Put the door hole on one of the sides that deer are less likely to be coming from. A roof is not necessary but may be desired to darken the inside of the blind and to protect you from the elements. Construct the roof in the same manner as you did one of the walls.
Setting and Hiding the Blind
Clear the spot where the deer hunting blind will sit. Cut away any unwanted brush or twigs using garden clippers. Use a coarse-toothed saw or chainsaw to remove bigger branches. Sweep away leaves and debris to reveal bare ground. Construct the deer blind using nails or screws. Use twine to tie natural cover to the blind in between all the windows. Use whatever is available and natural to that area like saw grass, corn stalks, brush and so on. Hang camouflage see-through netting on the inside of the door and windows to conceal you even more. The possibilities are endless on the inside of the deer blind. One of the best parts of your new blind should be comfort and convenience. Cup holders, shelves, benches and outdoor carpet are just some of the things you can add later on.

July 25, 2013
Norman, Okla. - Virginia men's golfer Mac McLaughlin (Shaker Heights, Ohio) has been named a Cleveland Golf/Srixon All-America Scholar today. A government major, McLaughlin was a senior during the 2012-13 season.
A total of 152 players in Division I, 57 in Division II and 18 in NAIA earned the honor. Additionally, 21 honorees were added to the previously released Division III Cleveland Golf/Srixon All-America Scholars.
To be eligible for Cleveland Golf/Srixon All-America Scholar status, an individual must be a junior or senior academically, compete in at least three full years at the collegiate level, participate in 50 percent of his team's competitive rounds or compete in the NCAA Championships, have a stroke-average under 76.0 in Division I, 78.0 in Division II, 77.0 in NAIA and 79.0 in Division III, and maintain a minimum cumulative grade-point average of 3.2. A recipient must also be of high moral character and be in good standing at his college or university.
McLaughlin played in 11 matches during the 2012-13 season and helped the Cavaliers to an appearance at the NCAA Regional in Columbus, Ohio. He was third on the team with a 74.38 stroke average. He posted the team's low round against par, shooting 6-under 64 at the Palmetto Intercollegiate. He recorded four top-10 finishes during the season and was the runner-up at the Palmetto Intercollegiate. He led UVa in scoring four times during the year.

"Because the media wouldn't be giving us this attention if we had adopted an American orphan."
"Because most of the American unadopted orphans are special needs, older kids with established personalities, or have siblings that need to be adopted with them."
Do we really have over 100,000 orphans in the US? Or just kids from bad homes?
Following from yesterday, some more details of both the attack and the later, inspirational, likfe of Kim Phuc are here:
There is also a lot all over the net about the meeting with the US veteran who, at most, was involved in ordering the attack (which was actually carried out by a South Vietnamese pilot). However, the sources on this all seem so partial it is hard to know who to trust.
For what it's worth: Last night, while slogging through my customary reading of the Sunday New York Times (I'm a slow reader), I came across this marriage announcement for Thomas Trudeau, a son of Garry Trudeau and Jane Pauley. I may have missed comments on this, but I can't recall seeing any. You can see the announcement at http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/15/fashion/weddings/a-lasting-third-impression.html?_r=0
It was a big deal to me when my family adopted my Vietnamese sister but I don't recall we had any media coverage. This was around 1970. We did have some local media coverage when she became a naturalized U.S. citizen. My folks were no in it for the limelight though.
Reminds me of Angelina Jolie.
Do we really have over 100,000 orphans in the US? Or just kids from bad homes?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<<<
If you are talking bad, dysfunctional homes I would guess it's more like 25,000,000 kids.
""I about got my head bitten off and never did get a straight answer."
I can't imagine why.
Maybe she didn't care for the "ax".
Did you really ask her why she "bought" two babies?
They must take after their uncle. Or, you trained them well.
They're mostly not babies.
I have two good friends who adopted from China – they didn't "buy" their children, thank you, and they have two lovely, well-mannered daughters. You are quite the uncle there, bawana…
Since the US population has increased some 40% since 1975, if the number of children available for adoption has stayed the same, then we are making progress.

Queen of Arabian sea : Kochi is the most cosmopolitan and modern city of Kerala.It comprises of Ernakulum (the mainland) and a group of islands on lake Vembanad. It was dominated by the Chinese, Dutch, Portuguese and the British at some point of time, all of whom have left indelible marks.
The sight seeing for the day includes Mattancherry palace, Pardesi synagogue, Santa Cruz Basilica, St Francis church and Chinese fishing nets. In the evening enjoy a Kathakali dance performance. Overnight at Kochi.
Drive towards east to reach Munnar. As the highly esteemed 'National Geographic Traveler' puts - it is "one of the fifty must see destinations of a lifetime and one of the ten paradises of the world." Swathed in the velvety green carpet of tea plantations, it is one of the most romantic landscapes of the world.
On reaching Munnar check into the hotel. Rest of the day is for leisure. Explore the place at your own and have overnight stay.
Verdant carpet of manicured gardens : After breakfast set out for Eravikulam National park. It is famous for its population of Nilgiri Tahr - highly endangered specie of mountain goat. Next you visit the Tata Tea museum, Madupetty dam and top station to get the awesome views of this hill town.
Overnight stay at Munnar.
Spice town : Drive towards south for Periyar. The sanctuary, declared a Tiger Reserve in 1978 under the Project Tiger scheme, attracts travellers from all over the world. It was created by the old Travancore State Government in 1934. The park encompasses a 26 sq. km. artificial lake, built by the British in 1895 to provide water to the temple city of Madurai in Tamil Nadu.
Check into the hotel for lunch and some rest. Later go for a spice plantation tour and then in the evening explore the spice market. Overnight at Periyar.
From a fascinating natural wildlife reserve to haven of birds :Early morning you go for a boat safari in the Periyar Tiger reserve. After this you have the option of going for an elephant ride and bathing the elephant and also getting a shower from it.
After lunch you drive towards west and reach Kumarkom - a cluster of little islands on the Vembanad Lake. A 14 acres bird sanctuary which is a haven for a host of migratory birds like Siberian stork and many others like Egrets, darters, herons, teal, waterfowl, cuckoo, wild duck, is the hall mark of Kumarkom. You can either go walking inside the sanctuary or take a boat trip round the islands. We recommend an evening or an early morning trip when the chances of spotting the birds are good. Overnight at Kumarkom.
Home afloat-a masterpiece of craftsmanship : Early morning visit the bird sanctuary. After breakfast you will be transferred to the houseboat to sail on the backwaters- the USP of Kerala. In Kerala, the total expanse of backwater stretches over 1500 kms, with a network of 44 rivers, lagoons and lakes from north to south. Alleppey which forms the main part of this network has the peculiar geographical feature of having the water in level with the land. This gives the advantage of getting a closer look at the countryside life on shore while on a backwater ride.
Your houseboat has fully furnished bed room, a drawing cum dining room with comfortable chairs, kitchen and toilet. The fish preparations, in local flavour, on the houseboat are really a gourmet's delight. In the evening the houseboat comes to a halt for overnight stay.

Rain puts a halt to Curve losing skid
From Mirror reports
READING – Curve right fielder Justin Howard saved the team from losing its sixth straight game Thursday.
But Howard didn't win it for the Curve, either.
Howard's single in the top of the sixth inning tied the game at 2-2 for the Curve, who were trying to avoid being swept by Reading at FirstEnergy Stadium.
The run the Howard knocked in proved to save the Curve from being swept as the game went into a 1 hour, 35-minute rain delay and was ultimately suspended in the top of the eighth. If Howard hadn't driven in Andrew Lambo, who tripled, the Curve would have been trailing when the game was called, and Reading would have won.
However, Howard's RBI will allow the game to resume June 4 at Peoples Natural Gas.
Howard, who spent last season with Single-A Bradenton, moved up to the Curve at the start of the season.
Howard, who was pinch-hitting for the most part, struggled and hit just .083 in the beginning of the season. He was then put on the disabled list at the beginning of May.
But the same day outfielder Alex Dickerson was put on the DL, Howard moved off, and the Texas native has been one of the bright spots for the struggling Curve the past two days.
He has improved his batting average to .227 from his season low of .063 in three games. Along with the RBI on Thursday, Howard went 3-for-3 with a run and a double.
In the Curve's loss on Wednesday, Howard had one of the team's four homers, and in the last two games, he's gone 4-for-6.
Howard will most likely see more playing time as Dickerson will be on the disabled list until at least Monday.
Game recap
Key player: Curve RF Justin Howard was 3-for-3 with a run and an RBI.
Key play: Howard's single to drive in Andrew Lambo tied the game at 2-2 in the sixth inning. When the rain came in the eighth, the game was suspended. If the game wouldn't have been tie, the Curve would have lost.
Key stat: Howard is 4-for-6, scoring two runs and homering in the last two games.
How they scored
Bottom 1st: Duran singled, scored on Henson single (0-1).
Top 2nd: Howard doubled, scored on Paulino single (1-1).
Bottom 5th: Abreu homered (1-2).
Top 6th: Lambo tripled, scored on, Howard single (2-2).

It was a good enough place to park. A large, open-air pay and display a few minutes walk from the port, surely this was the perfect spot to leave our car and explore the fascinating maritime city of Thessaloniki (Salonika).
The brochure described the facility as "Britain's only boutique bootcamp", a term which in my mind conjured up visions of furious amounts of fitness rewarded with lots of lovely pampering.
Try as I might to dodge those yawningly early morning flights, I occasionally have to concede defeat. Just last week I was forced to catch an 8am plane from Heathrow to Zurich.
Our train pulls out of La Spezia and bores straight into the mountainside and into the rugged heart of the Cinque Terre. Hurtling through the mountain's interior, it's not long before we burst out on the other side, a sudden blue wash of light spilling into the carriages as the Mediterranean comes into view.
The plane landed, the orchestra started playing and the locals got out of their cars and clapped.
That is when I realised the real significance of being on the first flight from Luton to Debrecen, Hungary's second city.
'That was the weirdest thing I've ever done," said my husband, flopping on a sunbed. "I was lying in a steam room while some woman in a swimsuit covered my eyes with a cold flannel and threw ice over my head." After a traditional hamman treatment — Turkish bath — he could do little more than lift his cocktail.
British Ambassador to Luxembourg Alice Walpole welcomed the four Langdon residents completing a four-day 275-mile sponsored bike ride from London. The quartet — James Manton, Guy Ben-David, Benjamin Kraus and Daniel Welck — enjoyed a celebratory picnic at the embassy.
From Nice airport it was a pleasant tootle along the twisty N8 coastal road. I was heading for the tiny town of Théoule-sur-Mer where they say, the water quality around its cliffs is the best in Europe.
I had chosen the Tiara Yaksta boutique hotel for its discreet location and found it was so hidden that I passed it at least three times.
As a child, I remember my Aunt Rozita and Uncle Salo spending three months every winter in Madeira.
'Portugal was born in Guimaraes," explains our tour guide during the 30-mile road trip from Porto airport to a 2012 European Capital of Culture. Now the affection which the Portuguese display for the nation's 900-year-old birthplace is to be shared with a wider audience, as organisers expect a doubling in visitor numbers to one million.

Indianapolis is too clogged up with trees. It's hard to spot a gas station when you're driving around there on a freeway because the trees get in the way. Even if you do spot a gas station and stop to fill up, there could be a station with a lower price a short distance away, but you'll never know it because the leaves obscure the sign with the better price. I think that Big Oil in Indianapolis is in cahoots with IDOT (? Indiana Dept. of Transportation) to bilk drivers out of extra gas money. Remember that Standard Oil was big in Indiana and may still have a malign impact on gas prioes there!
Use the "gasBuddy" app on your smartphone. Problem solved.

Rebecca Nettl-Fiol and Luc Vanier utilize their ten years of research on developmental movement and dance training to explore the relationship between a specific movement technique and the basic principles of support and coordination. The Alexander Technique, developed in the early twentieth century by F. M. Alexander, can be used to enhance dexterity in all types of activities, from everyday actions as mundane as tooth-brushing to highly demanding dance movements. The authors offer a unique approach for using the Alexander Technique in dance and other activities. Amply illustrated and supplemented with a DVD that demonstrates the concepts and applications of the Alexander Technique, this book will be highly instrumental for dancers, teachers of dance, and anyone interested in giving everyday movements more efficiency, dexterity, and elegance. Rebecca Nettl-Fiol is an associate professor of dance at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and co-editor of The Body Eclectic: Evolving Practices in Dance Training.

Does anyone know if it's possible to run an excel file in Simulink? I have a column with a variable in excel, and don´t know if there is a block that I can get in simulink to run this variable.
The Signal Builder block allows you to import a signal directly from Excel:
What do you mean "run this variable" and why do you need to do that? Depending on what you want to do, it might easier to just import the data in MATLAB using xlsread and then use the From Workspace block to use the variable in the Simulink model.
i have a variable b which consists of values [ 2 3 4].if i enter b to pass these values to fuzzy logic controller as input i get an error.can any one help
the error is 'expression b does not evaluate to valid FIS'
Thanks to booth for your replay.
I import to workspace. I see the block Arnaud said.
Now... What I put in data in block parameters?
Assuming your time values are in the first column, you just need to enter data in the block (if data is the name of your variable).
not understand..
In simulink I put per example:
simin x constant = simout ??
Instead of simin, just enter the name of your variable, i.e. 'data' in your case (without the quotes) and that's all there is to it!!
Thanks all for your help. I´m a noob in Simulink, it´s my first contact with this software, I need to go step by step if not I get lost.
In Simulink I put per example simin x constant = simout, is right that part?
Why do you want to do simin x constant? What are you trying to achieve? You may want to look at the Simulink tutorials at:
and also read the documentation.
I don´t now if the correct way is simin x constant. I have one constant and one file in excel with one variable with time. And want multiply this variable by the constant over time.
Did you have a look at the tutorials I suggested? You really need to get up to speed with the basics of Simulink. Have a look at the following snapshot:
Sorry don´t say more nothing but I was out of office in last days. In this moment I still don´t know how to solve this problem.
I understand for you guys it is very simple, but for me it is a hell :)
For example I have in workspace: Time 1 2 3 4 5 Values 5 8 9 4 2
And need multiplicate this values with a constant
What blocks I need to use to make that operation?
Best Regards
Again, have a look at the snapshot I mentioned in my earlier comments, read through the documentation and look at the tutorials I pointed you towards. This is really basic stuff. Failing that, you need to go for a training course:

At the risk of sounding naive, we question the received market wisdom that "when Fed Funds are cut, markets rise." Don't get me wrong: we are not blind, either. Markets are welcoming recent Fed Funds reductions. But, if punters are buying only because of lower Fed Funds, beware... history has a nasty habit of repeating itself.
1. Do markets rise only when Fed Funds are cut?
The market statement that "markets rise when the Fed Funds ("FF") are cut" is misleading. It implies that markets must fall when FF are hiked. Our examination of the data repudiates this claim. Markets behave irrespective of the direction of the FF rates! "Things" are perhaps not so "different" this time.
In order to arrive at this philistine conclusion, we examined FF cycles since 1981, i.e. going back more than 25 years. Our findings boil down to the following:
1. Since June 1981, there have been five FF "cut" cycles and five "hike" cycles;
2. The average FF CUT has been six percentage points;
3. The average gain on the S&P 500 ("S&P") during the five "cut" cycles has been 131 points;
4. Every one percentage point cut in FF has boosted the S&P by 22 points;
5. The average FF HIKE has been three percentage points;
6. The average gain on the S&P has been during the five "hike" cycles has been 93 points, and
7. Every one percentage point hike in FF has boosted the S&P by 29 points.
For our purposes, points 3 and 4 need to be compared to points 6 and 7. Evidently, the market has risen both during FF cuts as well as during FF hikes!
The Economic Clock™ helps to explain why FF are not so relevant from a strategic perspective. Liquidity and earnings are far more important than interest rates. This goes to say that an excess demand for goods boosts earnings - and also the potential for higher inflation. Thus, FF are hiked when earnings rise, and it is the stronger earnings that propel the market upwards. All the more so if there is an excess supply of money, as we have now.
The conclusion is simple: see beyond the haze of lower FF as being "real" market boosters. They are not. An excess supply of money is what is boosting markets, not an interest rate cut of under one percentage point!
Our market concerns remain, however. The reason that the Fed is cutting FF is precisely because it is worried about US growth prospects: The Economic Time™ has been deteriorating in America for exactly one year, so we are baffled as to how domestically-driven profits can rise if turnover and margins are wilting.
2. Pattern predictions of Fed Funds cycles
- "Hike" cycles last about 23 months and result in a three percentage point hike in FF, and
- "Cut" cycles last about 35 months and result in a six percentage point cut in FF
So our pattern prediction is that Fed Funds will be on a downward trajectory for the next two - four years, say until late 2009. We reiterate: FF are cut when the economic and thus profits outlook is worsening, and history is repeating itself here. Otherwise, why would the Fed cut rates?
Our hunch, so often repeated, is that the U.S. is going to experience stagflation next year.
3. How to Make Money Off This Idea
1. Always consult your financial adviser before doing anything.
2. We suggest "put" ETFs or options on the US markets.
3. Position yourself for a crash.
4. Keep going after commodities.
5. Focus instead on China (and thus Hong Kong) India and Malaysia: The Economic Time™ there is just fine.

I started doing stained glass in 1983 when I got talked into taking a class by a friend. What started out as a hobby, turned into a small home business, then into a store front that I ran from 1988- 2006 as Carter's Stained Glass Studio. The business included doing classes, custom work, selling supplies, doing repair, and selling hand made gift items. In 2006, due to family issues, it was time to move back home. I now live in Kingston Springs, Tn. right outside of Nashville, Tennessee.My focus now is to be an artist. After 30 years of doing what everybody else wanted me to do, it is time to do what I want to do and create artistic pieces for sale on my etsy site and occasional craft show!

I added doing pottery in 2008. Pottery is always something I wanted to learn, but I was too busy when I had my stained glass store back in East Tennesse from 1988-2006. When I moved back to the Nashville Area, I found a nearby pottery studio and learned. I love it!!!
