Many of Hawaii's colleges and universities boast a strong web presence, offering a range of bachelor's degrees entirely online. These schools provide a convenient and first-class learning environment to distance learners. Hawaii Pacific recently added three new programs entirely online, while the University of Hawaii's system provides a mix of fully online programs and courses.
But before we dive into our list of the best online colleges in Hawaii for 2016, let's start with the state of higher education and online education in particular in Hawaii today.
A Brief Overview of Higher Education in Hawaii
In 2013, the National Center for Education Statistics reported that Hawaii had 21 degree-granting institutions, broken down as follows: 10 public schools, 7 nonprofits and 4 for-profits. The total number of bachelor's degrees awarded in the '12-'13 school year at these schools was: 4,236 at public schools, 1,928 at private nonprofits and 199 at private for-profits.
in 2013, Hawaii had 21 degree-granting institutions
- 10 public
- 7 non-profit
- 4 for-profit
Tuition-wise, the College Board found that, in the '15-'16 school year, the average in-state tuition and fees for four-year public schools was $10,170, while the out-of-state average was $28,780.
As for the state's financial aid efforts, the National Association of State Student Grant & Aid Programs (NASSGAP) reported that Hawaii awarded $3.78 million in need-based grants for the '13-'14 school year. Grants make up only 0.7% of the state's total fiscal support for higher education. The state also awarded $582,000 in loans over the same period.
The Lumina Foundation reported that, as of the 2013 Census, 44.3% working-age Hawaiians, the equivalent of 740,000 people, held either a two or four-year degree ― an increase of nearly 2% from the previous year. This sits well over the national average of 40%. With such a well-educated populace, reasonable tuition and the obvious draw of its tropical locale, Hawaii's education system should see stable, moderate improvements over the next several years.
The State of Online Higher Education in Hawaii
The NCES estimates that at least 11% of students enrolled in Hawaii's Title IV institutions are in fully online programs. Of those, 89.2% were reported to be undergraduates and 84.9% were found to be living in Hawaii.
As we mentioned above, Hawaii's premier distance opportunities come by way of the state school system; the service is called Distance Learning at the University of Hawaii. The system combines the offerings of four schools, three UH branches and one community college. The directory of courses semester to semester features dozens of programs, from certificates and two-year degrees to bachelor's, master's and even two doctoral programs ― all offered fully online.
Hawaii is also part of the SARA regional education compact known as the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE). The WICHE Internet Course Exchange (ICE) offers opportunities for state residents, through their local college or university, to access high quality distance programs offered at out-of-state WICHE institutions, often at greatly reduced rates.

An alternative explanation for the resource curse: the income effect channel
This article provides an alternative explanation for the 'resource curse' based on the income effect resulting from high government current spending in resource rich economies. Using a simple life cycle framework, we show that private investment in the nonresource sector is adversely affected if private agents expect extra government current spending financed through resource sector revenues in the future. This income channel of the resource curse is stronger for countries with lower degrees of openness and forward altruism. We empirically validate these findings by estimating nonhydrocarbon sector growth regressions using a panel of 25 oil-exporting countries over the period 1992 to 2005.

Project Description
I am looking for an experienced native SPANISH speaker, who is able to improve the style of my SPANISH document (ca. [url removed, login to view] words) and to check if the meaning of the Englisch/German text was transfered correctly into the Spanish translation. Furthermore I need the Spanish translations to be checked for spelling and any grammatical mistakes.
The document type is a excel file. The excel also includes the german and english translation of the text, so you can make sure the meaning stays the same. What I need to be checked is of course the SPANISH texts, but only the text and words that are coloured red. You find the fist part of the texts in the SPANISH line (line 8) of the excel. You can do the corrections in the same box or in the line underneath. As you prefer. The second part to be checked is in a column E, starting in line 12.
I attached the file, so you can look at it.

Anna Paquin: 'I'm Bisexual'
Anna Paquin has come out of the closet.
The "True Blood" star says, "I'm bisexual, and I give a damn," in a new online public service announcement for the Give a Damn campaign, aimed at promoting gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender equality.
Now 27, Paquin dated actor Kieran Culkin in 2007, and has never discussed her sexuality with the press. She became engaged to "True Blood" co-star Stephen Moyer, 40, in August 2009. The couple hasn't yet announced their wedding date.
"We always take the p--- out of each other and are silly with each other, and it is great," British actor Moyer has said. "We're very, very happy. She's the best."
Launched Thursday, the Give a Damn campaign, featuring Elton John, Whoopi Goldberg, Sharon and Kelly Osbourne, Wanda Sykes and others, is part of singer Cyndi Lauper's True Colors Fund.
"In my life I've crossed paths with many different people and I've seen firsthand what it means to be discriminated against," Lauper says. "As a straight person, I have a responsibility to stand up for gay and transgender people each and every day. We all have to get involved; we all have to give a damn."

Welcome to the The Shipping News, I'm Adri and I am very very excited this week. We head from the very real San Diego to the very fictional Night Vale, but no matter where we are Ultimate Slash Madness is on. Let's get started.
SSDC's Slashiest
The time is upon us, the time when you can hear the anguished cries of absolutely everyone who is not at San Diego Comic Con. And that buzzing whine that's pitched just above everyone else's? That would be shippers being hit twice an hour by video and direct quotes to light the fires of their shipping hearts for the coming year. Throughout the year a lot of shippers restrict themselves to shipping within the realms of fiction, but come SSDC and its myriad of panels and interviews that all goes right out the window. Here, for your flailing pleasure, are my slashy highlights for SSDC 2013 so far.
There are combinations you don't think about and then turn out to be something chiseled by the careful hands of gods. The entire Teen Wolf panel was bathed in the self emitted light of beautiful people but I mean look at this, for example, Daniel Sherman and Tyler Hoechlin being beautiful in close proximity to each other..
It stands to note that during the panel, Jeff Davis made a teasing statement to the effect of Sterek being over and making way for Scisaac now. I have two things to say to that, sir. First off, Sterek being over? Allow me to pause for the maniacal laughter of half the Teen Wolf fandom. And secondly? There is plenty of love to go around. Multishipping is the way of the future Jeff, keep up with the times.
Moving on, we've got your oldies but goodies, Sir Ian McKellen and Sir Patrick Stewart. Sometimes we think the two gentlemen ship themselves with each other, but their bromance is legendary and incomparable; as is their love for all things Comic Con.
These adorable captures, however, are nothing compared to the Comic Con phenomenon of actors being all too aware of how much we want to see them involved in some on screen loving. Take for example this jewel from a City of Bones cast interview. When questioned on the expectations of fans for his character, Godfrey Gao was intercepted by co-star Kevin Zegers with this cheeky clarification:
What makes this the number one shippy moment so far for me though, is that where others would giggle and nod knowingly, Godfrey went ahead gents and ladies, and brought us full circle.
Welcome to Slash Vale
It happened again, someone started up on a show that's been around for a fairly long while and posted about it on Tumblr. I've been seeing posts about Welcome to Night Vale on my dash for over a week now and for the most part I thought this was Homestuck's cousin or something because one can usually get acquainted with the plot of any given story after two hours on Tumblr. Welcome to Night Vale took a little bit more digging but proved to be nowhere near as allusive as Homestuck (which, in spite of being explained to me in detail by at least four individuals I still do not understand).
An audio show served in twenty to thirty minute podcasts, my googling had prepared me for some Neil Gaiman style scifi humor. It had not, however, prepared me for the show's narrator Cecil and his five minute ode to Carlos the Scientist with his perfect hair. Slashiness in the Pilot episode? Ah, the heavy presence on Tumblr begins to be understood.
SPOILER ALERT: Cecil and Carlos are really the most adorable thing to ever become canon, which they did over the two episodes released in July. If you don't believe me just take a look at this piece of work while I sit in a corner and gush about them.
Ultimate Slash Madness 2013: The Seeder Round
The Madness is ON. With a whopping sixty-four ships in our initial seeder round and a five selection vote repeatable every hour, things are picking up speed. (After two days over a hundred thousand votes!) I have to report, dear friends, that I fear a two party system even when pitted against such varied competition. Last year's final race is rearing up it's passionate head again as Destiel and returning champions Sterek take the lead of the seeder round at just above 16% of votes each. Will history repeat itself? Will the magnificent doubleship ship of Desterek rear it's gorgeous mixed fandom head at us again?
If you support an underdog in this fierce battle, I urge you, take up arms now. Draw fanart, write manifestos, and reblog all your pleas and promotions with one of our Ultimate Slash Madness banners. This has only just begun and it's anyone's game. Claim victory for your ship or make your voting fingertips bleed in the attempt! Ahem. I may have had one Spartacus marathon too many (blame it on the Nagron), but the point still stands. Vote for your favorites every hour! The seeder round closes at 11:59pm this Wednesday.
That's all for this crazy week guys, now let us return to our Royal Baby Watch and submitting to Tom Hiddleston's will as he loses touch with reality at Comic Con.

For persistent telemetry, we only send histogram data; we don't send other information that we collect during normal telemetry operation (amount of RAM, various startup times, etc.). Due to my poor assumptions and the way telemetry data is aggregated on the server side, this approach discards (on the server side) that "extra" non-histogram information.
Loss of telemetry data is bad. Given that restructuring the server side would be rather involved, switching persistent telemetry off for the short term is a better option. We have open bugs (bug 748517 and related) for restructuring persistent telemetry to make it easier to save this extra information. While those bugs can be fixed relatively quickly, shoving through the train process on such short notice doesn't seem advisable.
Setting tracking flags. I'm new to tracking flags, so hopefully I'm not screwing it up!
Created attachment 624821 [details] [diff] [review]
Here's a patch that just disables the sending, but leaves everything else intact. Tests still pass, thanks to the observer hook.

Bug caused by (feature/regressing bug #): bug 707320 and followups.
User impact if declined: None, this feature has no user interaction.
Testing completed (on m-c, etc.): Tests in the test suite.
Risk to taking this patch (and alternatives if risky): Epsilon risk that something will go wrong and telemetry won't get sent in, period. Unwilling to say zero risk. :)
String or UUID changes made by this patch: None.

[Triage Comment]
Understood on risk. Can you make sure to watch aurora/beta channel telemetry volume it's as expected?
Approved for Aurora 14 and Beta 13. Pleas land asap to make it into beta 5.
Is there something QA can do to verify this fix?
Nothing for QA here.
Thanks Nathan.

> Understood on risk. Can you make sure to watch aurora/beta channel telemetry
> volume it's as expected?
Aurora and Beta telemetry volume seem as expected so far, save for a brief dip (~30-40%) on the 24th and 25th, respectively. I don't claim to understand this, seeing as how telemetry volume went up when we enabled persistent telemetry (since we were sending roughly 2x the number of pings). One would therefore expect it to decrease by the same volume...I suppose it's possible people are not updating quickly?
In any event, Nightly telemetry volume has held more-or-less steady, so I think we're OK on the telemetry front.

Heat Pump Installation and Repair
Whether you currently own a heat pump that needs to be repaired or you are considering having one installed, Sunset Heating & Cooling can meet your needs.
Our selection of quality heat pumps gives you a wide range of features to meet your home heating and cooling needs. And if you just need servicing for your existing unit, our professional technicians are up for the task. We work closely with all our customers to make sure your expectations are met.
Benefits of Home Heat Pumps
Maybe you're considering a home heat pump installation, but need to learn more as to why they are a good idea. They are among the most efficient home heating and cooling systems available on the market today, saving you hundreds on your utility bill each year as compared to conventional units.
In addition to reducing your energy costs, you have quiet, uninterrupted heating and cooling service for you and your family.
Heat pumps absorb heat and transfer it to a different location. So during the cold winter months, that heat is transferred away from your home and in the summer months, the process is reversed.
If you're looking for consistent and efficient climate control, call us today to see what option works best for you and your home.
Lennox XP25
The XP25 is the most energy-efficient heat pump on the market today. With efficiency ratings of 23.50 SEER / 10.20 HSPF and a sound rating of 58dB, this is truly a top-of-the-line home comfort product. Like most Lennox equipment, this high-efficiency heat pump is capable of communicating with the Lennox iComfort Wifi smart thermostat.
Lennox SL18XP1
Lennox has earned a reputation for quietly operating systems. In fact, the Lennox SL18XP1 heat pump produces sounds as low as 67dB, which by comparison is only twice the level of a whisper! The model has efficiency ratings of 18.50 SEER / 10.20 HSPF.
Lennox XP14
This model operates with an energy-efficient, precision-engineered scroll compressor. It has efficiency ratings of 16 SEER / 9.5 HSPF and can be heard only at levels as low as 71 dB. Homeowners can take advantage of a dual fuel feature, allowing you to switch between gas and electric fuel.

17 A prophecy against Damascus:
"See, Damascus will no longer be a city
4 "In that day the glory of Jacob will fade;
7 In that day people will look to their Maker
9 In that day their strong cities, which they left because of the Israelites, will be like places abandoned to thickets and undergrowth. And all will be desolation.

Without trees to generate oxygen, humans would have to retrieve it from scuba tanks and the minty breath of local supermen. Keep the air alive with today's Groupon: for $20, you get $40 worth of plants, garden supplies, and more at Gardner's Landscape Nursery in Chester Springs.
Gardner's Landscape Nursery helps beautify gardens of all shapes and sizes with a selection of 100,000 plants, as well as outdoor décor and garden supplies. Celebrate the changing of the seasons and give brainless horsemen plenty of topper options with a plethora of pumpkins ($0.32/lb.).

For the foresighted fan of post-fall fun, the nursery also stocks poinsettias ($3.99+) to help infuse homes with holiday flair.
Gardner's Landscape Nursery
Robert Gardner grew up in the world of gardening. At the age of 13, he started helping work the fields and sell plants at his family's nursery, becoming the fourth generation of his family to go into the business. Decades later—now at the helm of the family business—Mr. Gardner purchased a property in Chester Springs and created Gardner's Landscape Nursery. Here, he oversees the growing of 100,000 annuals and perennials each year and the stock of home decor and patio furniture that is made in America.
Mr. Gardner and his staff also help patrons design custom outdoor environments, selecting plants, trees, and shrubs that beam with fall colors or thrive in specific conditions. Alternatively, patrons can explore on their own, browsing a glass house with plants and flowers or a 19th-century barn, which houses outdoor furnishings and the ghosts of garden gnomes.

Recap: Comic-Con 2010
My 2010 Comic-Con Scrapbook
Tuesday, July 27, 2010
The dust has settled on yet another Comic-Con and it's taken me a couple days to recuperate from Con 2010 and reflect back on the experience. Here are some favorite memories and photos.
Beth Accomando
Let me begin at the end. As I was leaving the Con on Sunday night, I stopped to chat with David Glanzer, Comic-Con's director of marketing and publicity. After dealing with hundreds of press people, an "incident" in Hall H, demanding film studios, and who knows what other crap, the first thing Glanzer asked me was, "Did your son have a good time?" To me that sums up why the Con is so fun: it's run by a group of great people who are at heart just geeky fans themselves and they just want everyone to have a good time. The answer to his question was yes. My son had a great time because he has finally discovered the joys of going to panels and not just spending money in the dealers' room. And for myself this was probably one of the best Cons because I was able to take in such a diversity of panels.
Beth Accomando
As I mentioned in my earlier post, I spent preview night with a six-year-old who arrived in his Batman costume and asked if he could spend the night at the Con. Seeing the joy in his eyes reminded me of why the Con is so fun – it brings out the kid in all of us.
Beth Accomando
On Thursday, Danny Elman made his first Con appearance at a packed panel about composing for the movies. He confesses to one young woman asking for advice that he had none to give because his career is far from typical. He also said that there would never be an Oingo Boigo band reunion because playing with the band had damaged his hearing and he wasn't willing to risk further damage. He was an amazingly gracious man and provided a fine panel.
Beth Accomando
Later I went to listen to Charlene Harris, author of "True Blood," and realize that she is indeed Sookie Stackhouse. She displays the same sass, humor, and persistence. She seems to take it in stride that the popular HBO series has changed much from her books, and appreciates the new fans the series has brought her. She discussed writing and confessed to following total strangers around in order to listen to their conversations and recalled one time wanting to follow some women because she heard the line, "and that's why she became a lesbian." Harris was a Southern delight.
Beth Accomando
At the "Burn Notice" panel, Bruce Campbell, as one might expect, took over and proved highly entertaining. The exciting news for Campbell's fans was the announcement that there will be a prequel movie giving us some background on his character Sam. Woo-hoo! A movie focusing on Campbell and giving him the spotlight. I hope this means that next year he'll get a panel all to himself.
Beth Accomando
Then DC's Geoff Johns held a panel and tried not to say too much about "Green Lantern."
Tony Weidinger
In Hall H, Sylvester Stallone drew thunderous applause for his high testosterone panel for "The Expendables." Bruce Willis even stopped by but no Arnold.
Beth Accomando
But the highlight for the day was Edgar Wright and his panel for "Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World." Wright, who with Simon Pegg created "Spaced" and "Shaun of the Dead," knows how to entertain the Con crowd. He gets Comic-Con (Warner Brothers and their "Harry Potter" panel did not). He is a fan boy himself and kept his panel fast moving and fun. He even brought out Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, introducing them as two people appearing in "Scott Pilgrim." They made a Rocky-like entrance with their arms raised, and then Wright corrected himself to say, "I should have said not appearing…" The two then left dejected with head hung low.
Beth Accomando
At the end of the panel, Wright led a lucky group of people over to the Balboa Theater to see the premiere of "Scott Pilgrim." My son got one of the winning buttons designating that he could go but for the first time in his life he was struck by responsibility and since his phone was out of minutes and he could not call me to let me know where he was going, he gave the button to someone else. I told him he should have gone. I would have forgiven him for something important like that.
Philip Lorenzo
Off site, attendees could find one of the ever increasing "unofficial" Comic-Con events. On Thursday it was a party for the film "Machete." People could get tacos made by Robert Rodriguez and actor Danny Trejo, and later in the night jalapeno tequila Margheritas.
Beth Accomando
The press conference 20th Century Fox held in by the party in the Fifth and J parking lot was pretty worthless for radio since the talent were outside where music was blaring and no one had a mic. Fun party but not practical as a press event. Too bad Fox didn't just get "Machete" a panel at the Con so we could have heard more from Rodriguez and company. But Fox film hasn't held a panel at Comic-Con in a couple years and it makes you wonder why.
Thursday night was especially fun since I got to moderate my first panel, and not surprisingly it had to do with zombies. Nine artists who had worked on "Night of the Living Dead: Reanimated" came out to talk about what can best be described as an animated, mixed media, mash-up homage to George A. Romero's seminal zombie film.
It was a full house (but we lost a lot of people who had to go home on the trolley), and everyone walked away with swag. Plus the artists had not met before so this was like a meet and greet for them, and now they want to work together on the next animated project called "Unseen Horror" (old radio shows will provide the audio basis for this project). It was a great night and the die-hard folks who stayed till almost midnight expressed appreciation for the work done by the animators.
Beth Accomando
Friday had a nice international feel with Moto Hagio making her first appearance. She is often looked to as the creator of shojo, which is essentially girls comics or manga in Japan. She spoke through a translator, showed her work in a power point, and revealed a love for drawing cute male characters. And later during the Con that international flavor was enhanced with the appearance of French cartoonist Emile Bravo: award-winning English fantasy fiction writer China Mieville; and Italian comic book artist with a flair for the erotic Milo Manara. The Con has certainly gone global not only in popularity but also in terms of the artists highlighted.
Beth Accomando
The popular comic "The Walking Dead" by Robert Kirkman is being turned into an AMC series by Frank Darabont ("The Shawshank Redemption," "The Mist). So a panel revealed some exclusive footage from the show and was "livened" up by some undead creatures lumbering very slowly through the panel. The footage didn't quite win me over and I'm still concerned that Darabont isn't the right man for the job. But the zombies looked pretty darn cool.
Beth Accomando
Berkely Breathed (creator of "Bloom County" and "Outland") had one of the funniest panels as he went through his comic strips to explain how some of the panels were received (one with Nancy Reagan in it got him a call from President Reagan) and even censored. He also pointed out things that people apparently don't find funny (like plastic surgery). He also spoke at length about where ideas come from. Sometimes they are from an image (like seeing a bike stuck in a tree that inspired "Red Ranger Came Calling") or from something mean his son said (he wouldn't reveal what was said only that it inspired "Mars Needs Moms"). His discussion on the creative process was his way of reassuring himself that he would never run out of ideas.
Beth Accomando
Shout Factory sponsored a panel for Roger Corman that included actress Mary Woronov, actor Sid Haig, and director Joe Dante. It was a lively tribute to Corman with everyone recounting tales of low budget filmmaking. Shout Factory will be re-releasing such Corman classics as "Pirahna" (written by John Sayles) and "Rock 'N' Roll High School." Shout Factory also released a collection of "Max Headroom" DVDs, the full TV series. And that was one of my first buys at the Con because I have been waiting so long for this brilliant, clever, and satirical series to finally be released. When you bought the DVD at the Con you got a special cast photo too. Made this fan girl happy.
Beth Accomando
But the highlight of the day was a late night double feature from Sushi Typhoon: "Alien Vs. Ninja" and "Mutant Girls Squad." You won't find two better examples of Asian Extreme Cinema. One of the co-directors even ran in wearing only a kind of sumo diaper. The audience was hooting and hollering with delight at "Alien Vs. Ninja," but by the time "Mutant Girl Squad" the audience was a little mellower. Plus the film felt more like a surreal acid trip that kept getting weirder and weirder. At one point one of the mutant girl's dad gets his head chopped off at her birthday party and it lands on a cake and talks to her. Then the head on a cake floating in limbo appears in her dream. That's just a tiny taste of its craziness. I couldn't imagine a better end to a day at the Con and I will be looking for more films from Sushi Typhoon.
Saturday began with Reading with Brains: Zombie Literature. Among the authors represented were Max Brooks ("Zombie Survival Guide," "World War Z") and Ryan Mecum ("Zombie Haiku"). Mecum even impressively answered some questions in haiku. Panelists also had to present their thesis on slow versus fast zombies. Slow, Romero-style zombies were definitely favored by the authors and the audience but a couple of the authors tried valiantly to defend their fast-moving breeds.
Tony Weidinger
Ballroom 20 was devoted for almost the whole day to Fox TV shows. One highlight was Seth McFarlane singing live and trying to stay in sync to a clip from "Family Guy." Patrick Warburton recounted a tale about making a bet that the loser of a golf game would eat dog food. He lost and ate some Alpo. Later on the news he heard a story about mad cows found but that the public need not worry since the cows went to a dog food factory. He added that mad cow disease can take up to twenty years to reveal itself. Over at the Indigo Ballroom at the Hilton Bayfront, TV shows like "The Venture Brothers" held court.
Oni Press
After appearing but not talking much at the "Scott Pilgrim" movie panel, comic creator Bryan Lee O'Malley held his own panel about the release of the "Scott Pilgrim" comic volume 6. His fans expressed affection for the comic but one woman complained that she wanted Scott to be more of a "douche" or Ramona to be less of a "bitch" in order for her to buy into their romance. O'Malley said he had some scenes that he had cut that showed more of the two of them doing things together. To which the female fan demanded that the scenes be added back in… immediately. The audience made a general call out for a "director's cut" of the comic.
Tony Weidinger
Saturday night in Hall H was all about fun and star power. The fun came from Simon Pegg and Nick Frost presenting their film "Paul," which is in part a valentine to the fan boys of Comic-Con. The characters played by Pegg and Frost are shown going to Comic-Con in the preview footage screened in Hall H. Although the footage looks like San Diego, the Comic-Con in the film actually had to be recreated in Albuquerque to make shooting more feasible.
Tony Weidinger
The 6400 plus crowd in Hall H ate the film up. Moderator Chris Hardwick started the panel with a question about favorite Comic-Con memories. He recalled his own: seeing a man dressed as Wolverine taking a hit on an asthma inhaler. Simon Pegg said he remembered coming out for "Shaun of the Dead" and getting to meet Ken Foree (of "Dawn of the Dead") and getting what he called a "cuddle" from him.
Tony Weidinger
Then Jon Favreau presented "Cowboys Vs. Aliens" and brought to the Con for the first time Harrison Ford (Indiana Jones and Han Solo himself) and Daniel Craig (Bond, James Bond).
Tony Weidinger
Ford was brought out in handcuffs by security guards. The joke was probably meant to be about his reluctance to come to big events like this but it played a little differently coming after two attendees got in a scuffle in Hall H and security and paramedics were called in to deal with the incident, which ultimately turned out to be a scratch under the eye with a pen (my friend at Sobering Conclusion is waiting for someone to describe the incident as proof that the pen is mightier than the sword).
Tony Weidinger
Tony Weidinger
But what really brought down the house was the Marvel panel with the entire Avengers team in full force: Samuel L. Jackson (Nick Fury), Robert Downey, Jr. (Iron Man), Chris Evans (Captain America), Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow), Mark Ruffalo (The Hulk), Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye), and Chris Hemsworth (Thor).
Tony Weidinger
That was a pretty impressive show of superhero power in Hall H. Plus Marvel had "Thor" director Kenneth Branagh out on stage describing "Thor" in the terms of Shakespearean tragedy and actress Natalie Portman explaining how Branagh made the actors tear apart the text to get at the meaning. It was an interesting turning point for Comic-Con and comic adaptations to have such highly respected talent elevate comics and comic film adaptations to the level of Shakespearean tragedy. To some fans, that respect was a long time over due.
Beth Accomando
From Marvel to Troma. Yes indeed what a jump. I went from Marvel to the Troma panel where there were endless tech problems that seemed to make the panel even more fun. It was also amusing to see Hollywood directors James Gunn, Darren Lynn Bousman, and other all huddled around a DVD player trying to make it work while the shamelessly self-promoting Lloyd Kaufman entertained the crowd with plugs for his latest DVD box set and booth number. It was a grand time and from there I went to the XSanguin zombie party for more fun.
Sunday was a day to hit the dealers' room floor. I took care of some Christmas shopping and nabbed a few cool items for myself like a Hellboy Skelanimal and a great b-horror movie poster with the tag line, "an appalling amalgam of carnage and carnality."
Beth Accomando
They'd never use words like that these days for fear potential filmgoers wouldn't know what "amalgam" meant. This is a case of a poster for a film I had never seen but the poster art was just too good to pass up.
Beth Accomando
Sunday was also the day that the Comic-Con International Film Festival gave out its awards. The documentary I was touting, "Marwencol," walked away with Best Documentary and the Judge's Choice Award. The films were screened this year in the Marriott and even though it was by the Fulfillment Room (where everyone goes to collect their panel freebies), most screenings only had a handful of attendees. I know the Con is jam packed with things to do but I wish there was a way to get more people to these films because so many, especially the docs I've seen over the past few years, are amazing. Fortunately, "Marwencol" has been picked up by a distributor and is scheduled to air on PBS in the spring.
Beth Accomando
Well another Comic-Con has come and gone… sob, sob, sob. I think this was one of the most enjoyable… and grueling… I can remember. I saw the most diverse array of panels but that required a lot of scrambling to get back and forth across the quarter mile or so convention floor. But I am already looking forward to next year and to hopefully forming a better plan of attack so I can fit even more in.

No photos of any cute girls (exception Scarlett J.) but a really great crotch shot of a banana wrap on the co-director of Mutant Girls? Priceless.
So security had to be called in because of a dust up that involved one young man stabbing the other with a pen - who but a geek stabs someone with a pen!? LOL. Classic.

I was always hoping to find out that the "Harry Potter" shirt-wearing attacker was upset at being called a mugblood (as well as hearing the incident proved that the pen was mightier than the sword).
Great recap though. Pretty much hit all the salient points. Maybe you should have someone act as an assistant next year in order to manage your schedule. (and no, I'm not volunteering) ... :)

I knew about the IFF screenings, and where they were -- but I just found it too hard to pry myself away from the rest of the Con. I ended up watching several of the winners, including Marwencol, after the IFF Awards ceremony.

I have some more pics to post but I almost feel it's too late.
Glad some people caught the CCIFF. Some great films.
Ian-you sure you don't want to be my assistant?????
Thanks for the comments!

This was my 1st Comic Con and I had a great time! I agree that Bruce Campbell was awesome at the Burn Notice panel and I can't wait for the Sam Axe movie.


text: Examining the barriers and benefits of exercise in type 1 diabetes mellitus: EXTOD In 'EXTOD' Examining the barriers and benefits of exercise in type 1 diabetes mellitus: EXTODFor InvestigatorsFor Trial ParticipantsPublicationsContact the EXTOD team In people with type 1 diabetes (T1D), the insulin producing beta cells within the pancreas are destroyed by the bodies own immune system. This means that insulin levels fall, and these people need to take insulin treatment (as injections). At the time the diagnosis of T1D is made, upto a quarter of the beta cells can remain. Even though this is not enough to avoid having to take insulin injections, protecting and preserving them protects the patient from the complications of diabetes in future years. These complications include heart disease, kidney failure and blindness. These are important reasons for preserving beta cell function in patients with new T1D. There is now some evidence that regular and sustained exercise can protect beta cells in patients with other forms of diabetes. We do not yet know is this is the case in T1D. The aim of this study is to find out if exercise preserves beta cells in T1D. Design This is a 2 stage study: 1) we will first examine barriers to exercise in adults newly diagnosed with T1D 2) we will then examine whether exercise preserves beta cell function in adults newly diagnosed with T1D. This will be a randomised study where people will be asked to undertake at least the nationally recommended levels of exercise for 1 year, and the amount of beta cells measured at the end. The barriers to exercise identified in the first part of this study will be used to facilitate the second part of the study. Setting This study is a multi-centre study run through 20 hospitals around England. The following hospitals are involved in the EXTOD study:University Hospital Birmingham Musgrove Park Hospital, Taunton Bristol Royal Infirmary, Bristo Southmead Hospital, Bristol Gloucester Royal Hospital, Gloucester Yeovil District Hospital, Yeovil Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Welwyn Garden City Pinderfields Hospital, Wakefield Churchill Hospital, Oxford Alexandra Hospital, Redditch George Eliot Hospital, Nuneaton Russell's Hall Hospital, Dudley Walsall Manor Hospital, Walsall New Cross Hospital, Wolverhampton Birmingham Heartlands Hospital, Birmingham Good Hope Hospital, Birmingham City Hospital, Birmingham Cheltenham General Hospital, Cheltenham Weston General Hospital, Weston super Mare Frenchay Hospital, Bristol Royal United Hospital, Bath Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital, Exeter Target population Adults newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (within the past 3 months) who feel they can increase their current exercise levels.

SCAM. Terrible. Watch Out!
At 10am security knocked on our door. I rolled out of bed and answered the door. My friend was still asleep in the other bed. He claimed that they got a report of someone smoking in the room. I told him it wasn't us and that he just woke us up. He was very rude and said he knew we were smoking and to not do it again. I told him we didn't, but OK, we won't. The next day my credit card was charged $250 which I later found out was a "smoking penalty".
I asked the manager to go to my room and smell it herself. She refused. She called me later and said she spoke with the security guard and he confirmed he "saw smoke" in the room which is absolutely ridiculous.
Aside from that experience, the hotel itself was sub-par at best. The area was terrible. We literally saw two people laying on the grass just outside the hotel's property who clearly just shot up heroin (or some other drug). It was disgusting. We mentioned it to the door man as we walked in and he said, "it's off the property, it's not my problem."
The beach was OK. There were a bunch of abandoned buildings around the hotel. Place looked like it could have been nice, but not so clean.
Unique Quality: The outside of the building and front desk area was very nice. The rooms were OK. Everything else was not good.
Don't Stay Here!
Rude staff, dirty rooms, run down, pool is falling apart, noisy, overpriced. I could go on and on. They never have the room you paid for, everyone is always lined up at the front desk complaining. They barely clean anything and people are coming in and out of the place at all hours. The staff is so poorly managed they should wipe the job off their resumes. They can't get the bill right, so look it over several times before you pay. You would be better off staying almost anywhere else.
Unique Quality: it's across the street from the beach and asbury park's super boardwalk, but still not worth staying there
A nice hotel in a bad area.
The Berkeley Carteret Hotel is one of the Grand Hotels of a by-gone era. A 20 million dollar USD restoration and renovation in 1985 created a unique and impressive blend of modern luxury and classic beauty. Directly opposite the Atlantic Ocean, guests enjoy numerous sandy beaches, miles of scenic boardwalk. Located in the heart of the Jersey Shore. There are 250 luxury suites and rooms offering spacious accommodations, all with private full bath. Minutes from area attractions, The Berkeley Carteret Hotel is an ideal jumping-off point for the night-life of both, New York City and Atlantic City, and leisurely relaxed days by the sea.
Unique Quality: Nice views if you like abandoned buildings, empty lots, and crumbiling boardwalks.
Directions: Downtown on the beachfront.

Medical history made with first 'functional cure' of unnamed two-year-old born with the virus but now needing no medication.
Doctors began treating the baby 30 hours after birth. Unusually, they put the child on a course of three antiretroviral drugs, given as liquids through a syringe. The traditional treatment to try to prevent transmission after birth is a course of a single antiretroviral drug. The doctor opted for the more aggressive treatment because the mother had not received any during her pregnancy.
Several days later, blood drawn from the baby before treatment started showed the child was infected, probably shortly before birth. The doctors continued with the drugs and expected the child to take them for life.
However, within a month of starting therapy, the level of HIV in the baby's blood had fallen so low that routine lab tests failed to detect it.

The Pedestrian Only Course is brilliant and equally evil. Reprogramming students to refrain from this highly anticipated right of passage? Never drive a car until it is bought and paid for outright? Hysterical!
I might have appreciated this course had it existed during my residence in Chicago or Houston. At least the scarcity of drivers there would make for cleaner air and less traffic congestion, not to mention relieve my road rage! LOL.
The high-handed institutional policies and tactics infringing on the students interest and desire to drive reminds me a bit of Handicapping in Kurt Vonneguts "Harrison Bergeron". This was enjoyably clever. Great short.
Very well done Mike. Could easily be a hillarious scene in a comedy show. Your writing held the humor.
