Parents Are as Bored by Kids as Kids Are By Parents, Says Depressing Disneyland Survey
Perhaps the saddest survey ever, undertaken by Disneyland Paris, has found that 30 percent of parents think that playing with their kids is an utter bore. (It bears mentioning that those participating in the survey were U.K. parents, who are probably slightly less neurotic about forced "fun!" than American parents). Also, American parents probably lie when asked about their enthusiasm for kid-play.
But still. As you might expect, a certain percentage of kids pick up on their parents' disregard for their playtime, and probably go on to become mass murderers or at best socially dysfunctional members of society. Meanwhile, while 30 percent of parents insist on bogarting their kids' computer games and "playing with them," 80 percent of kids would rather their parents just leave them alone until they turn 18 and then they'd like to bum some money and the car, thanks.
Sigh. Also, Disneyland Paris is nothing like the original, not least in how it tries to guilt parents into bringing their unfun kids there. Why bother having kids at all if they're not going to amuse you? Really!

I'm so glad I stopped by and found this recipe! I bought some beautiful asparagus and now I know what to do with them aside from the usual steamed aspargus I make!
The Fitness Girl KitchenThis sounds like a great recipe Kitty. I'm not a big fan of asparagus, but this looks like a recipe my Dad would enjoy. His favorite asparagus is the white kind that we now see more in the States. He had it in Germany a few years ago, and it really is a spring food there, as they only have it about 2 weeks out of the year. He liked when he could time his trips when it was asparagus season, and he would eat that every day.
Your recipe sounds like a tasty new way to try serving it to him, so thanks for sharing it at Your Cozy Home Party!Hi there, this is a really nice post about asparagus. It would be great if you linked to it in my Food on Friday series. This week it is about all things asparagus. Food on Friday

We're constantly on the lookout for nutritious whole grains to add to our families diets, and over the past few years, have turned to interesting grains like quinoa, wheat berries, and bulgur. When we heard that this month's Recipe Redux challenge was whole grains, we had a tough time deciding which grain to cook with. We finally narrowed it down to farro, an ancient whole grain grown and used in Italy since Roman times. Farro is light brown in color and looks a bit like brown rice, but its hearty nutty flavor and chewy texture add more of a "wow" factor to savory soups, colorful salads, and sides.
For our recipe, we were inspired by a side dish for Farro Risotto from America's Test Kitchen. Apparently, Italian cooks prepare farro in the same way they prepare Arborio rice for a creamy dish called farrotto. We tweaked the Test Kitchen recipe a bit by adding zucchini (the original recipe only called for carrots) and switching from chicken broth to vegetable.
The brand of farro that we found at the market was Earthly Choice Italian Pearled Farro. Pearled farro has the hull removed which still keeps plenty of the fiber intact but shortens the cooking time to 20 to 25 minutes. A quarter cup uncooked farro has an impressive 5 grams of fiber and 7 grams protein. Not bad!
Carrot & Zucchini Farro Risotto
Makes 6 Servings
We need to thank America's Test Kitchen for this recipe. We made a few changes, but by and large, the recipe is the same one featured in their Best Recipes and Reviews 2011 magazine.
- 1 small onion, minced
- 1 large carrot, peeled and chopped fine (about 1 cup)
- 1 small zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch dice
- 1½ tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt and pepper
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
- 1½ cups pearled farro
- 2 cups all-natural vegetable broth
- 1½ cups water
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1. Combine the onion, carrot, zucchini, oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large Dutch oven or saucepan. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the garlic and thyme and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
2. Stir in the farro and cook until lightly toasted, about 2 minutes. Stir in the broth and water, raise the heat, and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat and continue to simmer, stirring often, until the farro softens but is still a bit chewy, about 25 minutes.
3. Stir in the parsley and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve.
* Unlike traditional risotto, with this recipe, you don't have to heat the liquid first and you can add it all at once. Be sure to stir often and keep the lid off to allow some of the moisture to evaporate.

Confess that I've never cooked farro, but the comment that your kids love it has me sold!
What a unique twist on risotto! Looks delicious, too!
Don't know farro! But have some wonderful "real"(haha) Italian friends. Going to ask them the scoop on this grain. I like the idea of toasting the farro first, like risotto and then cooking it with broth. I think just a quick toast goes a long way for flavor. (well, my kids can tell the difference-they like their rice/risotto and other grains toasted first before adding water.) Feeling inspired! Thanks
Hi Liz and Janice I love the idea of trying Farotto…..is pearled faro still a wholegrain? I guess not? But of course still highly nutritious. Yum.
This looks amazing! Can't wait to give it a try!
Ladies, that looks quite tasty! Can't wait to give this recipe a try.
Wish I could eat farro because your risotto looks amazing!!! I'm thinking this would be good with millet for a gluten-free alternative 🙂
I've never cooked farro before either; but now I'm so inspired. Thanks for giving it the test run for us! I KNOW it will be good if it's your recipe. I might try using both zucchini and carrots? I'll let you know. Thanks also for the response on pearled vs nonpearled… very helpful! (I just learned pearled barley wasn't a whole grain – a rather sad day.)
I was looking for a recipe for the Farro I had in my pantry. I came across this recipe and decided to try it since I had all of the ingredients. It was so easy and so delicious. I absolutely love it. It is definitely a keeper. Thank you so much for sharing.

AP survey: Fed's outlook correct but not solution
- Written by CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER, AP Economics Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) — Economists appear to be of two minds about the Federal Reserve.
They agree with the Fed that the job market still isn't healthy. Yet the latest Associated Press survey of economists finds that most fear the Fed will wait too long to raise interest rates and thereby risk stoking inflation or creating asset bubbles.
The duality of their views underscores the perils of the Fed's policymaking. Most economists accept that there's still "significant" slack in the job market. By that they mean that millions of people — the unemployed as well as part-time workers and people who've stopped looking for work and aren't counted as unemployed — would likely take jobs or work more hours if they could.
Still, they're concerned that Janet Yellen's Fed won't raise rates soon enough.
"I agree with her diagnosis; I even like what she has in mind," said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics. "But I'm skeptical that she'll be able to pull it off."
The AP surveyed three dozen private, corporate and academic economists from Aug. 13 to19. In follow-up interviews, several said they feared that by waiting too long to raise rates, the Fed could ignite inflation or may already be feeding speculative bubbles in assets such as stocks or high-yield bonds.
"Yellen's much more concerned about the Fed's employment mandate than inflation," said David Shulman, an economist at UCLA's Anderson School of Management, referring to the Fed's drive to lower unemployment. "They'll risk financial bubbles."
Lynn Reaser, a professor at Point Loma Nazarene University, agrees with Yellen that if the economy were nearing full health, workers' pay would be rising faster, fewer people would be unemployed for more than six months and many part-timers who want full-time jobs would manage to find them.
But "by the time we hit that situation, there may already be pressures on the inflation front or significant bubbles in various asset markets," Reaser said. "To play catch-up at that point may require large increases in interest rates, which could be very damaging to the economy."
Strikingly, while the economists worry that the Fed won't get out of the way of the strengthening U.S. recovery soon enough, they fear the opposite about Europe: That its economy may have entered a "lost decade" similar to Japan's long-standing stagnation.
Some, like Allen Sinai, chief global economist at Decision Economics, think the European Central Bank has been too cautious and should launch a bond-buying program akin to what the Fed had done. The idea would be to keep rates low, boost stock prices and shrink the euro's value, which would make European exports more affordable.
"The sooner they do that, the better the chance that Europe can get out of the lost decade before it turns into two decades," Sinai said.
ECB President Mario Draghi hinted last week that the central bank could take such a move in coming months.
Among the economists' other consensus views:
— The Fed's low-rate policies have already inflated a bubble in at least one asset group. Most of the economists who see a bubble think one exists in high-yield corporate bonds, often called "junk" bonds, and in emerging-market debt. Others detect bubbles in small social-media or biotechnology companies or in the stock market as a whole. On Monday, the leading stock-market averages set record highs.
— Inflation will remain generally below the Fed's long-term target rate of 2 percent this year but will consistently exceed that rate next year. Only if inflation were to reach or top 3 percent do the economists think the Fed should immediately raise rates regardless of how the economy was faring.
— Sluggish wage growth is slowing the U.S. economy. The most commonly cited factor is that too many people still lack jobs — including many who aren't being counted as unemployed because they've stopped looking for work. And pay growth won't start to significantly exceed inflation until next year at the earliest. Flat wages are "a limiting factor for consumer spending growth and a major restraint for the housing recovery," said Scott Brown, chief economist at financial services firm Raymond James.
Zandi said his concerns about the Fed's interest-rate policy stem in part from the Fed's own outlook. The Fed forecasts that the unemployment rate will fall to between 5.1 percent and 5.5 percent by the end of 2016 from the current 6.2 percent. The Fed thinks unemployment at that level would likely enable workers to demand higher pay and therefore lift inflation above the Fed's long-range target. Yet Fed officials expect the interest rate it controls to remain below historical norms until a year later.
That suggests that Yellen is willing to risk letting inflation run above the Fed's 2 percent target to try to boost growth and hiring, Zandi said.
Though inflation won't likely get out of hand, Zandi said, the approach carries risks. If bond investors concluded that inflation would remain above the Fed's target for an extended period, they would likely demand higher interest rates. That would raise borrowing costs throughout the economy, including for mortgages and auto and business loans.
In a speech Friday at the Fed's annual conference in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Yellen stressed that the Great Recession upended traditional measures of the job market, such as the unemployment rate and wage gains. Policymakers must now consider a wider variety of gauges to determine when to raise rates, she said.
That complexity also makes economists nervous. Many noted that the Fed has kept its short-term benchmark rate near zero for six years and has bought trillions in Treasurys to lower longer-term rates. Neither action had ever before been taken by the Fed. And it's not clear when the Fed will start to unwind all that stimulus.
"It was uncharted waters on the way in; it's going to be uncharted waters on the way out," said Richard Moody, chief economist at Regions Financial.

Maya agrees. When recalling her relationship with an Israeli man in her early 20s, she says there was definitely an "air of sophistication and mystery the accent imparted: Where has he been? Where is he going? And will he take me?"
"I still melt when he calls me 'darling,'" says Maureen, a New York-based nursing manager, referring to her boyfriend of three years, Malcolm, who's originally from London.

The problem? Everyone finds his accent alluring. "Women of all ages – from mid-20s to late-60s – get giddy around him," says Maureen, with a laugh. "For example, we went shopping the other day and he wound up with three sales clerks around him, giggling and chatting. They even gave him hugs and kisses goodbye!"
But the Brits have nothing on the Italians, as Tricia, a special education director from Hampton Bays, NY, is quick to point out. "The subtle inflections of his voice are so strong, confident and sexy," she says about her husband of eight years, Beppe, a native of Capri. But it's not just how he speaks or what he says. "The cultural nuances that European men grow up with, the fact that they really 'get' how to cherish a woman…well, that coupled with their accents, makes them simply irresistible," she says.
If a man with an accent is on your "must-have" list, Peachy says that joining a site like ILoveYourAccent.com can't hurt – and it may even open up some doors. "If you've been hitting those same two little bars for the last few years, hoping to meet someone exciting and nothing's happening, it's time to shake things up," she says. "If it doesn't work out, then you can always go back to the bar and eat chicken wings."
Tell us: Do you have a thing for foreign guys? What's your favorite accent?

The gripping Friday episode has revealed many things and left us with an idea of what may have happened in the past. But are things as simple as they look? Many of us are now very sure that Zoya is somehow connected to the web of deceit Raziya and Mamu has woven around Rashid. But there are things which are not adding up for me.
As per Friday's episode and what Rashid told Dilshad in that, that fire incident in the doll factory happened on Najma's first birthday and that was the reason Rashid left them the next day. This was supposed to have happened 17 years back, as it was clearly told in many previous episodes that they have been separated for 17 years. But according to the conversation of Zoya's Jeeju and Aapi, whatever had happened with Zoya's parents happened, 20 years back.(ref episode 7). So what actually happened to Zoya's parents 20 years back? Was it another fire? And was Raziya involved in that fire as well? This question comes to my mind because in a fairly recent episode, while Raziya was talking about something (I think Ayan and Humaira's nikah) she said 'I have never been defeated in the past 20 years'. That specific sentence about 20 years stuck out.
Another question pondering on my mind after Friday's episode is 'what exactly is the reason for Raziya and Maamu keeping Rashid in their grip?'
Initially I also thought that Rashid falling for Shirin was the reason behind everything that happened with Rashid and Dilshad. But things appear more complicated now.
In the conversation recorded in the doll, Raziya voice said that Rashid has put fire in the factory but unknowingly he has committed another crime as well for us and Maamu replied saying that "Rashid will now stay in our grip for the rest of his life". And in the conversation between Raziya and Maamu on Friday, Raziya said that "by using that Raaz of doll factory we have kept Rashid tied to this house all these years but he has gone to meet Dilshad now, so I fear that, that Raaz is not enough to keep Rashid tied to this house''..so it's very clear that they have framed Rashid in a crime (which he committed unknowingly) so that he will be forced to stay with them and do as they bid.
But what was the motive and reason for Raziya and Maamu's desperation to keep Rashid tied to them forever?. Is it because of Shirin and her happiness? From Raziya and Mamu's conversation, it implies that it's something else. It cannot be just because of Shirin and her happiness. There is another Raaz behind this.
And in Friday's episode, Rashid told Dilshad that he had EVERYTHING with him but that incident made him loose everything he had. And when a man says that he had everything, it implies love , happiness and money as well. So Rashid must have been successful even before he left Dilshad for shirin. And from the property that he had made on Dilshad's name now, it's very clear that Rashid is a good businessman and knows how to make money on his own, which he has been secretly investing in Dilshad's name. So it's now clear that the reason why Rashid left Dilshad and went to Shirin was not because of a financial gain offered by Maamujan as we have previously thought.
So could it be because Rashid is the one who actually knows how to manage all the investments and business Maamujaan has and so he wants him tied to them because Rashid is the actual money maker?
Or could it again have some connection with Zoya? Could it be that Rashid was someone like a caretaker to Zoya and probably her inheritance after Zoyas's parents died in another fire 20 years back?
Did Raziya's web of deceit start 20 years back with Zoya's parents and three years later trapped Rashid in that web?
So many doubts… and so many questions are there yet to be answered for us and so much is there to be uncovered. The web is thick and it looks like there is so much hidden yet and what is being shown now is just the tip of the iceberg.

RealTimeBattle - a robot programming game
realtimebattle [-n|-c|-d|-D debug-level] [-g] [-o option-file] [-l logfile] [-t tournament-file] [-s statistics-file] [-p port-number] realtimebattle --replay logfile [-p port-number] realtimebattle -h | --help realtimebattle -v | --version
RealTimeBattle is a programming game, in which robots controlled by programs compete against each other. The goal is to destroy the enemies, using the radar to examine the environment and the cannon to shoot. Even though the environment the robots are moving in is fairly simple, it is far from easy to construct an intelligent robot-program. RealTimeBattle is constructed to be easy to use, flexible and fast. The intention is that the program could be used for learning programming languages, as a test for intelligent algorithms or just as a game to play and enjoy. Here is a list of features of RealTimeBattle: · Game progresses in real time, with the robot programs running as child processes to RealTimeBattle. · The robots communicate with the main program using the standard input and output. · Robots can be constructed in almost any programming language. · Any number of robots can compete simultaneously if allowed by operating system and hardware. · A simple messaging language is used for communication, which makes it easy to start constructing robots. · Robots behave like a real physical object. · Own arenas can be created. · The simulation environment is highly configurable. · It is possible to connect external clients to the simulation server. · Basic team support is directly integrated in the game, sophisticated team play available due to team frameworks. · RealTimeBattle is distributed under the General Public License (GPL).

Bruce Vilanch For the Win
If I told you that Bruce Vilanch is a gay comedian who has written material for Billy Crystal, Bette Midler and the Donny and Marie Show and co-authored the gay anthem "Where Is My Man" you might think, "Oh, he sounds like a fun dude!" But you still wouldn't really know who he is. And if I told you that Bruce Vilanch looks like a blond sasquatch in ironic glasses, you might say, "Oh, do you mean Brian Posehn?" And I would say, no, I mean Bruce Vilanch, the mouthy and rotund comic known for his work on Hollywood Squares and various other talking heads-type shows--you'll know him when you see him. So your best bet is probably to put your ready-to-laugh pants on and head down (or up, or around) to the Addison Improv this weekend, where Vilanch is performing one show and one show only. Because really, once you've lost 21 pounds on Celebrity Fit Club, so many people want you to kiss babies and cure leprosy that staying in one place for more than a few minutes becomes downright cruel. Vilanch appears at the Improv, 4980 Belt Line Road, Suite 250 in Addison, at 8 p.m. Thursday. Tickets are $20. Call 972-404-8501 or visit improv.com.

President Barack Obama is taking aim at Senate Republicans, accusing them of playing politics with measures that would extend benefits to the unemployed and increase lending to small businesses.
Striking a deeply partisan tone in his weekly Saturday radio and online address, Obama said the Republican leadership has chosen to "filibuster our recovery and obstruct our progress" by blocking votes on agenda items the president says would breath life into the economic recovery.
"These steps aren't just the right thing to do for those hardest hit by the recession," Obama said. "They're the right thing to do for all of us."
The address was recorded at the White House before Obama flew to Maine yesterday for a weekend family vacation.
Lawmakers have been battling for weeks over extending unemployment benefits to workers who have been out of a job for long stretches of time. The last extension ran out at the end of May, leaving about 2.5 million people without benefits.
The House has already passed a bill to extend the benefits through November, but with the death of Sen. Robert Byrd, Senate Democrats don't have the 60 votes they need to overcome Republican delaying tactics. With West Virginia Gov. Joe Manchin naming Byrd's replacement yesterday, the Senate plans to take up the measure again on Tuesday.
Obama said the lawmakers' obligation to extend benefits is both moral and practical, citing some economists who believe extending unemployment insurance is one of the most cost-effective ways to jump-start the economy because it puts money in the pockets of people who are likely to spend it quickly.
The $34 billion (£22bn) needed to extend benefits would be borrowed, adding to America's mounting debt. Republicans have tapped into the public's anger and concern over that debt, saying they would only support extending benefits if the bill was paid for.
Obama pushed back in his address, accusing Republicans of making their stand at the expense of the unemployed "after years of championing policies that turned a record surplus into a massive deficit."
Obama also called on lawmakers to send him a package of tax breaks and credit extensions for small businesses. Democrats are hoping to force Republicans to vote on the small business bill by the time Congress breaks for its August recess.
In their weekly address, Republicans focused on Obama's recess appointment of Donald Berwick to the administrator at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. By appointing Berwick while the Senate was in recess, Obama was able to avoid a public hearing and Senate vote for his nominee — a move Republicans have called hypocritical amid Obama's promises of transparency.
Sen. Pat Roberts, who delivered the address, said Berwick's recess appointment is particularly troubling given the large role he'll play in implementing the massive health care overhaul Obama signed into law earlier this year.
"The president's health care plan — the most sweeping overhaul of health care in our lifetime — cannot be implemented behind closed doors," Roberts said.

Fix Your Marriage
Is your marriage in trouble? Do you know that your marriage is in trouble? Clues that you're heading in a crash and burn route would be sleepless nights spent wondering what you can do to return to that time in the past when you only felt bliss and were full of hope in an emotionally secure future. Recognizing that your marriage is in need of repair is the first positive undertaking in the right direction. Realizing that it takes two to create a marriage is another all-important platform that you will need to wake up to as it will require you both to restore the union. Depending on the circumstance that brought about the cracks in your marriage, let's look at some of the ways that you can fix your marriage.
Click Here For The Communication Aid '1000 Questions For Couples'
1} Frozen marriage!
It's only natural to experience feelings of escapism and regret in any marriage. But if you allow these feelings to breed and let other elements like work stress or preoccupation with your children to take over your life and relegate your spouse to the background, you're heading for the pits.
No connection means that you no longer communicate with your spouse enough for them to understand your present feelings and so he has no clue or interest in your future happiness. If you find yourself passing him in the hallway and the look in his eyes deem you strangers; then you need to act fast. Start by finding time to spend alone together. Use these opportunities to talk about the trouble that's in the marriage. Try to restrain the accusations and anger if you each want to understand each other's frustrations and resentments that have been building up to bring you to this point. In your bid to fix your marriage, listening is vital as is expressing the truth to each other.
Once you have all these in the open, set about discussing how you can get back in love again and fix your marriage. You can start by expressing your love in other ways that do not necessarily involve the physical aspect of the marriage. You can also commit to improving your individual behavior towards one another e.g. if you are too clingy or if he is too distant, keep this in mind every time you interact and work on getting better. In your journey to fix your marriage, begin with the small things by remembering what it meant to give and receive affection, attention, compassion and compromise.
2} Broken marriage!
No relationship can work if the element of trust is absent or severely damaged. If your marriage has incurred this form of damage, the most common being infidelity, the good news is that it is possible to fix your marriage. But it will require a lot of work. The cheater will have to confess the infidelity and express their genuine regret over the act. If they are willing to restore the marriage, start by forgiving them, hard as it may seem. You may also want to find out why they betrayed your vows as this will allow you to understand why they pulled away in the first place to find someone else.
If you remain suspicious and distrustful of your spouse despite their efforts to be better partners, seek the services of a professional counselor who will empower you to fix your marriage. They may just be the right liaison you need to help you expose your own wounds from the infidelity and come up with workable resolutions in your efforts to fix your marriage.
3} Sexless marriage
As much as sex is a key feature of a marriage, its decline at the hands of varying circumstances can damage the most solid of relationships. If this has
happened to your marriage, try to figure out what's causing the tension or lack of interest between you two. You need to be open and honest here, leaving all shyness at the door so that you can know how to fix your marriage.
Time is also a relevant factor here. No matter what you are both juggling in your daily lives, you need to find the time to reconnect on a physical level for you to be able to fix your marriage. So stop allowing life and its problems to pull you away in several directions and cut off
your spouse, spurring resentment in your marriage. Fixing this aspect of your marriage relationship may not be the overall solution to the problems in your relationship but it's a step in the right direction.

Adventurers re-enact Shackleton's voyage
WELLINGTON, New Zealand It's been lauded as one of the greatest survival stories of all time.
Nearly 100 years later, a group of British and Australian adventurers have discovered why. They re-enacted Ernest Shackleton's journey to save his crew when their ship got stuck and sank in Antarctica's icy waters.
Tim Jarvis and Barry "Baz" Gray reached an old whaling station on remote South Georgia island on Monday, 19 days after leaving Elephant Island.
Just as Shackleton did in 1916, Jarvis and his team sailed 800 nautical miles across the Southern Ocean in a small lifeboat and then climbed over crevasse-filled mountains in South Georgia.
The modern-day team of six used similar equipment and clothes. But the harsh conditions forced several of them to abandon their attempt along the way.
"It was epic, really epic, and we've arrived here against the odds," Jarvis told his project manager Kim McKay after reaching the station, adding that "we had more than 20 crevasse falls up to our knees and Baz fell into a crevasse up to his armpits."
McKay said Jarvis was suffering some frostbite in his right foot after the journey. He planned to hike today to the grave site of Shackleton, who was buried on the island years after his journey.
Jarvis wasn't the only one suffering foot problems. Three of the men couldn't complete the climb after suffering the ailment trench foot, caused by prolonged exposure to cold and wet conditions.
"The boat was only 22 1/2 feet long. At any one time, only four men could be below deck, while the other two had to be on deck. They had 26-foot waves crashing onto the boat," McKay said. "It was like they were playing a game of Twister. If one moved, they all had to move. They were constantly wet and cold and they all arrived with varying degrees of trench foot."
Shackleton completed the climb without a tent. Jarvis and his team were planning to do the same but used modern-day tents and sleeping bags when a blizzard hit. One member of the team turned back and then later rejoined Jarvis and Gray with more provisions and wearing modern-day clothing.
Shackleton's survival story was remarkable in that the final two legs of his journey came after the 28-man crew had endured more than a year in Antarctica. Their ship Endurance was trapped and then crushed by the ice pack and the men later sailed in lifeboats to Elephant Island, where 22 of them stayed, waiting for help. After reaching the whaling station, Shackleton was able to raise the alarm and save all his crew.
While Jarvis, who lives in Australia and also has British citizenship, and his team tried to recreate many of the conditions, there were limits – they decided to eat salami rather than the penguins and seals on which Shackleton's crew subsisted.
"These early explorers were iron men in wooden boats," Jarvis told McKay, adding that he hoped "we've been able to emulate some of what they achieved."

we've see them work their magic in the sneak peek of the home of robin lester, and soon we'll be seeing what they've cooked up for grace and ac (stay tuned in the next few weeks!), but today we get a special glance into the home of carl and russell, the brains and brawn behind the vintage shop repop. their brooklyn industrial style loft is an ever-changing interior as pieces from the shop constantly make their way in and out of this wild, sometimes over the top mix of rococco, mid-century, danish and primitive ideas. who knows what their home looks like today, but here is what it looked like the day it was photographed. [thanks russell and carl!] –anne
[above: The "grande" living area features an impressive tufted sectional we discovered for the shop but could not resist keeping in place for our own pleasure. Upholstered with horse and mohair the sectional bears an exquisite carved golden frame and is usually the seating of choice for our guests when we throw parties. As many know we have a love affair with flocked wallpaper. But since we are unable to hang wallpaper in this space, on the walls above the sofa we feature a collection of illustrative paintings by John Mathias who has an obsession with 60's advertisements. His wife, Miss Ellie, manufactures the necklaces which are positioned on the necks of the bejeweled beauties. We often feature their wares at RePOP. We enjoy old suitcases and trunks. They make the best solution for coffee tables as they are stackable, easy to move around and offer incredible amounts of storage space. Plus, they are not too expensive and you can always place drinks atop them without worrying about damaging wood. ]
The breakfast nook in our kitchen is one of the most beloved areas of the loft featuring an old Coca Cola Bottle Cap advertisement we purchased at one of my favorite antique malls in Kansas City. Carl and I love primitive, handcrafted furniture and since our loft bears no closet space or shelving whatsoever, we were in need of a fabulous piece to stow all of those kitchen necessities like spices and cookingware that can so easily clutter up a stove top. This particular cabinet is so functional what with the open center cubby. It comes in quite handy as a make-shift bar or cutting table. We rarely use our farm table for it's actual purpose. Rather it most often becomes a work station for the two of us. Still, because of the rustic feel of the nook we couldn't help but turn the tables on the look by throwing in these fabulous space age Saarinen style smoked lucite, white leather and steel legged tulip chairs!
I found the distressed elephant in Brimfield. It was one of those aged artifacts that beckoned to me from across a field of furniture and bid me stand entranced before it for 10 minutes with appreciative tears in my eyes before taking the plunge to make it my own. The elephant, who I've named Ghosty, has so much personality. Both sad and captivatingly beautiful in my eyes, he is by far one of the most special center pieces we have ever owned.
Carl and Russell's furniture in one of the homes they've staged in Brooklyn. Bedroom featuring Black and White Lacquered 60's American of Maartinsville Dresser featuring a victorian cast iron boutique sign, cowhide rug, flocked loveseat from Antiquarian and original pin-up art by John Mathias.
Study corner: 80's deco revival end table with 60's mod sphere lamp and Paul Mccobb Desk and Chair.
we would love to know the name of your favorite antique mall in kansas city.
thanks for sharing! -
Those portraits with the large frames are so cool.
I was always told to not say anything if you couldn't say something nice; but I'm doing my best to break out of that habit.Not really feeling this look. It feels stuffy, pretentious and undoable at home.
How I wish, wish, WISH I could be MADE into one of those 60's ad paintings. It would be such an amazing piece…
Well, sort of in agreement with Get Togetha's comments, I feel like the first 3 are more antique store or themed indie cafe than comfy home. The last 2 I really dig, though, for the furniture. Again there's something not very warm or inviting about them…
That desk and chair are absolutely stunning!
I had the pleasure of knowing Russell and Carl while they were in Kansas City. I loved seeing the inside of their Brooklyn home. Glad to know they stayed true to their style.
that desk is fantastic; i love the unexpected pointy legs.
I'm with Get Togetha. It's suffocating.
I love the breakfast nook. I wouldn't want to leave!
those paintings are absolutely incredible!~ i love the modern edge they add to the classic feel of the room.
wow, wonderful kitchen!!
I don't get it- what about this feels stuffy? A little old fashioned maybe, but stuffy- I don't see stuffy anywhere.
I love the kitchen- lots of character.
Grace, I love all your sneak peeks, but this is one of the ones I wish I could see in person – feels like pictures couldn't possibly do it justice! Thanks!
I love the desk and the chair… beautiful:)
I completely appreciate where they are going here but it feels a little too grandma for my own taste, and uncomfortable too.
awesome, awesome, awesome. this has to be my favorite sneak peak. I love their store and have always wondered what pieces they find for the store that they sneak into their own home. thanks!!
oh my! i have been inside of this space after a few First Friday art events that the boys have thrown inside the shop and i can tell you from experience that there is nothing stuffy, pretentious or uncomfortable about it! naturally their home would become somewhat of a storage facility to house items that cannot immediately fit into the shop. it's a constantly revolving museum of furniture and art. and i am happy to see that someone out there is giving a home to some more historical pieces that have been discarded in recent years of design.
an appreciative thank you to those who get our sense of humor, can see the warmth of classic pieces, and understand that it is an ever shifting interior of various items which we showcase before displaying in our shop. to answer anne marie's question, the kansas city mall we love dearly is the River Market.
Also, because of this Design Sponge article featuring John Mathias' Bejewelled Beauties paintings, an Italian arts blog has included his work alongside articles about David LaChapelle and Banksy and others.
Check it out if you like (scroll down 3 or 4 articles) : http://www.artsblog.it/Thank you Anne and Grace!!
I have that exact desk. It was my grandmother's, and I have started to refinish it. Nice to see it elsewhere!!
FYI: Before you refinish the desk please check on the inside drawer or on the bottom for the Paul Mccobb stamp. If it is a real designer piece refinishing it incorrectly might highly damage the worth of the item. You may want to consult with a professional.
Carl & Russell are the two un-stuffiest people I've ever met. I'm glad to see they are doing what they're clearly meant to be doing. Their place is GORgeous!
Carl and Russell do you ever worry about bringing bed bugs into your home? I bought a beautiful mid-century piece in Brooklyn and it had bed bugs, as we later learned. Everything in my house is vintage, but since that experience i have found it hard going back to shopping for antiques, AND I LOVE vintage. Any advice? Love your apartment. Pieces are well selected and put together.
i'm so sorry that has happened to you! bed bugs have never been something that we've encountered as for the most part any upholstered vintage furniture has been treated by the respectable dealers we work with before we even stow the pieces into our van. obviously if you purchase something upholstered from a marketplace there are no guarantees, but usually antique and furniture boutiques are hyper aware as it would be bad for business if they were not. however, on your own i suggest thoroughly vacuuming, washing and then spraying solution before bringing used upholstered furniture into the home. if it is a chair with cushions, remove covers and have them laundered or dry cleaned as a precaution. Most importantly, deal with vintage sale's people that you trust.
I love LOVE this room…but I hate hate hate those female headshot looking paintings. Wow. Those should go, and it would be perfect.
Oh and the stuffy comment is really lame. Just because it's old and ornate and…gasp, the color GOLD, doesn't mean it's pretentious and stuffy.

About John A. Bingham, US Congress, Judge Advocate
John Armor Bingham (January 21, 1815 – March 19, 1900) was a Republican congressman from Ohio, America, judge advocate in the trial of the Abraham Lincoln assassination and a prosecutor in the impeachment trials of Andrew Johnson. He is also the principal framer of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourteenth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution
Early life
Born in Mercer, Pennsylvania, he attended public schools and pursued academic studies. His family eventually moved to Ohio where he became an apprentice in a printing office for two years. He then studied law at Franklin College and was admitted to the bar in 1840, commencing practice in New Philadelphia, Ohio and eventually became district attorney for the surrounding Tuscarawas County, Ohio. He held this position from 1846 to 1849.
He became active in politics when he was elected to the Thirty-fourth Congress under the Opposition Party. He was reelected to the Thirty-fifth, Thirty-sixth and Thirty-seventh Congresses as a Republican. His candidacy in 1862 for the Thirty-eighth Congress was unsuccessful, though the House of Representatives appointed him that year to be one of the managers to conduct impeachment proceedings against West H. Humphreys.
During the Civil War, he strongly supported the Union and became a Radical Republican. President Abraham Lincoln appointed him Judge Advocate of the Union Army with the rank of major in 1864, and he became solicitor of the United States Court of Claims in 1865. He was also elected to the Thirty-ninth Congress, which first met on March 4, 1865.
Lincoln assassination
Washington was in chaos after John Wilkes Booth assassinated President Abraham Lincoln and Booth's co-conspirator Lewis Powell came near to assassinating Secretary of State William H. Seward on the night of April 14, 1865. Booth died on April 26, 1865 from a gunshot wound. When the trials for the conspirators involved in the Lincoln assassination were ready to start, Bingham's old friend from Cadiz, Edwin Stanton, appointed him to serve as Assistant Judge Advocate General along with General Henry Burnett, another Assistant Judge Advocate General, and Joseph Holt, the Judge Advocate General. The accused conspirators were George Atzerodt, David Herold, Lewis Powell (Paine), Samuel Arnold, Michael O'Laughlen, Edman Spangler, Samuel Mudd and Mary Surratt. The trial began on May 10, 1865. The three judges spent nearly two months in court, awaiting a verdict from the jury. Bingham and Holt attempted to obscure the fact that there were two plots. The first plot was to kidnap the president and hold him hostage in exchange for the Confederate prisoners held by the Union. The second was to assassinate the president, Vice President Andrew Johnson and Secretary of State William H. Seward and thereby throw the government into electoral chaos. It was important for the prosecution not to reveal the existence of a diary taken from Booth's body and making it clear that the assassination plan dated from 14 April. The defense surprisingly did not call for Booth's diary to be produced in court.
On June 29, 1865, the eight were found guilty for their involvement in the conspiracy to kill the President. Spangler was sentenced to six years in prison; Arnold, O'Laughlen and Mudd where sentenced to life in prison; and Atzerodt, Herold, Paine and Surratt were sentenced to hang. They were executed July 7, 1865. Surratt was the first woman in American history to be executed. O'Laughlen died in prison in 1867. Arnold, Spangler and Mudd were pardoned by President Andrew Johnson in early 1869.
Later life
In 1866, during the Thirty-ninth Congress, Bingham was appointed to a subcommittee of the Joint Committee on Reconstruction tasked with considering suffrage proposals. As a member of the subcommittee, Bingham submitted several versions of an amendment to the U.S. Constitution which would serve to apply the Bill of Rights to the States. His final submission, which was accepted by the Committee on April 28, 1866, read "No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." The Committee recommended that the language become Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. The Amendment was introduced in the spring of 1866, passing both houses by June 1866.
In the closing debate in the House, Bingham stated,
"[M]any instances of State injustice and oppression have already occurred in the State legislation of this Union, of flagrant violations of the guarantied privileges of citizens of the United States, for which the national Government furnished and could furnish by law no remedy whatever. Contrary to the express letter of your Constitution, 'cruel and unusual punishments' have been inflicted under State laws within this Union upon citizens, not only for crimes committed, but for sacred duty done, for which and against which the Government of the United States had provided no remedy and could provide none. It was an opprobrium to the Republic that for fidelity to the United States they could not by national law be protected against the degrading punishment inflicted on slaves and felons by State law. That great want of the citizen and stranger, protection by national law from unconstitutional State enactments, is supplied by the first section of this amendment."
Except for the addition of the first sentence of Section 1, which defined citizenship, the amendment weathered the Senate debate without substantial change. The 14th Amendment was ratified in 1868.
Despite Bingham's likely intention that the 14th Amendment apply the first eight Amendments of the Bill of Rights to the States, the U.S. Supreme Court subsequently declined to interpret it that way in the Slaughter-House Cases and United States v. Cruikshank. In the 1947 case of Adamson v. California, Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black argued in his dissent that the framers' intent should control the Court's interpretation of the 14th Amendment, and he attached a lengthy appendix that quoted extensively from Bingham's congressional testimony. Though the Adamson Court declined to adopt Black's interpretation, the Court during the following twenty-five years employed a doctrine of selective incorporation that succeeded in extending to the States almost of all of the protections in the Bill of Rights, as well as other, unenumerated rights. The Court, in the case of McDonald v. Chicago, decided that the Second Amendment incorporates to the states. Along with asking for selective incorporation, the petitioners are asking the Court to overturn the Slaughter-House Cases and apply total incorporation.
The 14th Amendment has vastly expanded civil rights protections and is cited in more litigation than any other amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
Bingham continued his career as a congressman, being reelected to the Fortieth, Forty-first and Forty-second Congresses. He served as Chairman of the Committee on Claims from 1867 to 1869 and a member of the Committee on the Judiciary from 1869 to 1873. In 1868 he was one of the judges involved in the impeachment trials of President Andrew Johnson. In 1872, he was unsuccessful in gaining reelection, this time for the Forty-third Congress. President Ulysses Grant then appointed him a new position as United States Minister to Japan, at which he served from May 31, 1873 to July 2, 1885.
He died in Cadiz, Ohio on March 19, 1900. He was interred in Union Cemetery in Cadiz.

ARCHBOLD, Ohio - The Archbold school board has a few more capital improvement projects on tap, thanks to money not needed for the high school addition project.
The school board approved nine projects Tuesday - including repaving a high school parking lot and replacing the middle school stage curtain - for a total of $139,000.
That means another $450,000 is available to either begin paying back the bond or for future capital improvement projects, Superintendent Ken Cline said.
Voters approved a $3.3 million bond issue in November, 2000, for the construction of a 16-classroom addition to the high school, as well as an addition to the industrial arts shop.
The actual construction costs came to about $2.4 million, leaving some extra funds.

Khalid Abdalla (Arabic: خالد عبد الله, Khālid 'Abd Allāh; born 26 October 1980) is a British Egyptian actor and activist. He came to international prominence after starring in the 2006 Academy Award-nominated and BAFTA-winning film, United 93. Written and directed by Paul Greengrass, it chronicles events aboard United Airlines Flight 93, which was hijacked as part of the September 11 attacks. Abdalla played Ziad Jarrah, the pilot and leader of the four hijackers on board the flight. He starred as Amir in The Kite Runner and acted with Matt Damon in Green Zone, his second film with director Paul Greengrass. Abdalla appears as himself in Jehane Noujaim's documentary on the ongoing Egyptian revolution, The Square, which won the Audience Award at Sundance Festival in 2013.[1][2]
Abdalla is on the board of the National Student Drama Festival. In 2011, Abdalla became one of the founding members of the Mosireen Collective in Cairo: a group of revolutionary filmmakers and activists dedicated to supporting citizen media across Egypt in the wake of Mubarak's fall.[3] Three months after it began, Mosireen became the most watched non-profit YouTube channel in Egypt of all time, and in the whole world in January 2012.[4]
Early life[edit]
Abdalla was born in Glasgow, Scotland, to Egyptian parents and brought up in London.[5][6] Abdalla's father and grandfather were well-known anti-regime activists in Egypt. His parents were both physicians who immigrated to the UK before he was born.[7]
Abdalla was educated at King's College School, an independent school for boys in Wimbledon in South West London and his classmates included actor Ben Barnes and comedian Tom Basden.[8] He became interested in acting after becoming involved in his school's thriving drama scene. In 1998, he directed a production of Someone Who'll Watch Over Me by Frank McGuinness, which ended up having a successful run at the Edinburgh Festival and earned five stars in The Scotsman newspaper,[9] making him the youngest director to receive this accolade.
After spending a gap year travelling around the Middle East, Abdalla went on to Queens' College, Cambridge where he read English.[10] He was active in the student drama scene alongside the likes of contemporaries Rebecca Hall and Dan Stevens.[11] He was a joint winner with Cressida Trew, his future wife, of the Judges' Award for Acting at the National Student Drama Festival for his performance in Bedbound by Enda Walsh.[12]
In 2003, Abdalla played the title role in Christopher Marlowe's Tamburlaine the Great at the Rose Theatre. This was the inaugural production of Peter Hall's Canon's Mouth Theatre Company composed of "young actors intent on discovering a new voice for the great metaphorical dramas of the Renaissance".[13]
Abdalla's first screen role was in a 2005 episode of Spooks entitled Infiltration of a New Threat.
In 2006, Abdalla made his Hollywood debut in United 93, a film about the September 11 attacks, and garnered critical acclaim for his portrayal of one of the terrorist hijackers.[14] He was cast in the lead role of the film The Kite Runner. In preparation for that role, he spent time in Kabul learning Dari Persian and kite-flying.[15]
In 2008, Abdalla appeared as Guy Pringle in the BBC Radio 4 adaptation of Fortunes of War. He starred as Freddy in Green Zone with Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass.[16]
In 2009-10 Abdalla produced and acted in the independent Egyptian film In the Last Days of the City, directed by Tamer El Said, and currently in post-production.
In November 2010 Abdalla was awarded special recognition for achievements in cinema at the Cairo International Film Festival.
In 2011 he was narrator in documentary film East to West, also known as The River Flows Westward.[17][18][19]
In 2016 he appeared as Muhammad XII of Granada in the film Assassin's Creed.
Personal life[edit]
In January–February 2011, Abdalla was among protesters in Tahrir Square in Cairo, Egypt in the major protests against the Hosni Mubarak regime.[20] He also appeared on Wolf Blitzer on CNN on 9 February 2011 and Anderson Cooper [21] to reflect his views on the protest. He continues to be active in Egypt.[22]
In 2011 Abdalla became one of the founding members of the Mosireen Collective in Cairo: a group of revolutionary filmmakers and activists dedicated to supporting citizen media across Egypt in the wake of Mubarak's fall.[3] Mosireen films the ongoing revolution, publishes videos that challenge state media narratives, provides trainings and equipment and screenings and holds an extensive library of footage. At three months old, Mosireen became the most watched non-profit YouTube channel in Egypt of all time, and in the whole world in January 2012.[3][23]
In September 2011, Abdalla married his long-time girlfriend, Cressida Trew.

Daily Reading for Monday, December 10th, 2012
Reading 1, Isaiah 35:1-10
1 Let the desert and the dry lands be glad, let the wasteland rejoice and bloom; like the asphodel,
2 let it burst into flower, let it rejoice and sing for joy. The glory of Lebanon is bestowed on it, the splendour of Carmel and Sharon; then they will see the glory of Yahweh, the splendour of our God.
3 Strengthen all weary hands, steady all trembling knees
4 and say to the faint-hearted, 'Be strong! Do not be afraid. Here is your God, vengeance is coming, divine retribution; he is coming to save you.'
5 Then the eyes of the blind will be opened, the ears of the deaf unsealed,
6 then the lame will leap like a deer and the tongue of the dumb sing for joy; for water will gush in the desert and streams in the wastelands,
7 the parched ground will become a marsh and the thirsty land springs of water; the lairs where the jackals used to live will become plots of reed and papyrus.
8 And through it will run a road for them and a highway which will be called the Sacred Way; the unclean will not be allowed to use it; He will be the one to use this road, the fool will not stray along it.
9 No lion will be there, no ferocious beast set foot on it, nothing of the sort be found; it will be used by the redeemed.
10 For those whom Yahweh has ransomed will return, they will come to Zion shouting for joy, their heads crowned with joy unending; rejoicing and gladness will escort them and sorrow and sighing will take flight.
Responsorial Psalm, Psalms 85:9-10, 11-12, 13-14
9 His saving help is near for those who fear him, his glory will dwell in our land.
10 Faithful Love and Loyalty join together, Saving Justice and Peace embrace.
11 Loyalty will spring up from the earth, and Justice will lean down from heaven.
12 Yahweh will himself give prosperity, and our soil will yield its harvest.
13 Justice will walk before him, treading out a path.
Gospel, Luke 5:17-26
17 Now it happened that he was teaching one day, and Pharisees and teachers of the Law, who had come from every village in Galilee, from Judaea and from Jerusalem, were sitting there. And the power of the Lord was there so that he should heal.
18 And now some men appeared, bringing on a bed a paralysed man whom they were trying to bring in and lay down in front of him.
19 But as they could find no way of getting the man through the crowd, they went up onto the top of the house and lowered him and his stretcher down through the tiles into the middle of the gathering, in front of Jesus.
20 Seeing their faith he said, 'My friend, your sins are forgiven you.'
21 The scribes and the Pharisees began to think this over. 'Who is this man, talking blasphemy? Who but God alone can forgive sins?'
22 But Jesus, aware of their thoughts, made them this reply, 'What are these thoughts you have in your hearts?
23 Which of these is easier: to say, "Your sins are forgiven you," or to say, "Get up and walk"?
24 But to prove to you that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins,' -- he said to the paralysed man-'I order you: get up, and pick up your stretcher and go home.'
25 And immediately before their very eyes he got up, picked up what he had been lying on and went home praising God.
26 They were all astounded and praised God and were filled with awe, saying, 'We have seen strange things today.'

The New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) is a Catholic translation of the Bible published in 1985. The New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) has become the most widely used Roman Catholic Bible outside of the United States. It has the imprimatur of Cardinal George Basil Hume.
Like its predecessor, the Jerusalem Bible, the New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) version is translated "directly from the Hebrew, Greek or Aramaic." The 1973 French translation, the Bible de Jerusalem, is followed only "where the text admits to more than one interpretation." Introductions and notes, with some modifications, are taken from the Bible de Jerusalem.

I am definitely watching:
Kimi ni Todoke 2 - I love this series. I'm hoping for a great season. Mitsudomoe 2 - I have watched the first season; I might as well watch the second one. Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica - Due to hype from Arakawa Under the Brigde 2, I have gotten highly interested in this. I will hope this is a great show. Go Sick - Due to hype from forums, I am highly curious as to why everyone else is interested in it. I will hope to enjoy this one as well. Will probably watch: Haiyoru! Nyaruani: Remember My Mr. Love (Craft-Sensei) Rio ~Rainbow Gate~ Merry Dream Eater I don't like you at all, big brother Is this a Zombie? Dragon Crisis |

Yeah, this one has me totally confused where I'll have to check it out and it's going to either be amazing or it'll be dropped like a rock. The premise is straight out of something I'd absolutely hate, but on the other hand somehow the trailer was pure elemental action awesomeness with style and it's got some of the Read or Die animation staff on it which shows in the trailer's animation and stylishness and the various elemental "dragons" and agents and stuff, but that premise is still lingering.
Almost didn't realize it till now listing it all out, surprisingly potentially busy season for me. Most anticipated are: Yumekui Merry (Incredible trailer. Everything looks/sounds good and even better the more I read/hear, the great stylish action/animation, Merry sounds great, a non-sucky male lead, Soul Eater-flavored dreamworld designs) Gosick (Bones and I love mystery) Infinite Stratos (Mecha action and the art looks good, love the Gundam-tinged great-looking CG mech battles, don't want to see them wasted, hoping it's got a bigger story to go with it's nice character and setting designs tho) Freezing (The action and weightiness of the events in the trailer looks good if that's real and it's really got a story like that and it's not just fanservice) Wolverine (Iron Man's blandness really worries me though) and I'm interested to learn what Fractale actually is since it looks like epic adventure. Also will definitely check out Beelzebub since it's getting a lot of praise, really enjoy comedy and it's about time we got a good big non-romcom comedy/action-comedy, the main guy sounds fun, and I like the blond girl's design. Really want to see the new .hack//Quantum OVA series as a big fan of the franchise as well as Tailenders which looks great (can't wait to see Redline) and curious about the Iron Vendetta mecha pilot film/potential series. Not counting shows I'm watching that I'm continuing, but OVA wise, more Black Lagoon, Gundam Unicorn, Break Blade. Most unsure about: Dragon Crisis Will probably give a bunch of others a short try, like Level E since it's supposedly a big old title, Magical Girl Madoka Magica since Shinbo and especially the awesome Yuki Kajiura doing magical girl is just really surprising so no idea what to expect, maybe Hourou Musuko, not my kind of show but at least a quick look for the artstyle, maybe that zombie thing and will probably check out Cardfight in preparation to watch some occasional eps of the new Yugioh in Spring for childish fun if the card battles are followable like in original Yugioh which finally got better again in 5Ds at least when I've casually caught an ep of the dub here and there. Haven't even seen rumors so I guess wishful thinking post? If only man, if only I'd love more Soul Eater animation... Quote:
Freezing is in a similar spot for me, it's got a lot of fanservicey stuff with the clothes getting cut up in the action scenes but those cuts are also drawing blood making the fights more striking than the usual fanservice action show so I'm curious to see if it can deliver the serious action story goods.

Winter 2011 certainly has a very strong lineup. Some of the shows I'm anticipating is -
Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magika - Because of the interesting collaborations, lol Yumekui Merry - I saw that it has an interesting plot. After learning that it's action orientated and seinen, I'm definitely watching it. IS Infinite Stratos - Like above, I also agree with most of the points. If done right, it could be just as good as Nanoha, which I would certainly enjoy. For one, I sure hope it won't turn into the typical harem/fanservice type of shows.. Wolverine - I plan to watch all the Marvel/Madhouse anime, which they are planning to animate 4 Marvel superheroes of them in total. That being said, I haven't even got time to start Ironman yet... FREEZING - maybe will be watching this one since I like KuroKami (from the same manhwa author) But well, actually one of the main reason I'm interested is that it's a manhwa itself (pretty stupid reason I know but meh...) Manhwa are very underrated sometimes and rarely gets any attention, let alone getting an anime adaption. But still, the show looks very fanservicey to me so I'm kinda worried. On another note, I sure hope The Breaker gets an anime adaption too some day... Beelzebub - The manga is very famous now and it's getting a lot of hype everywhere I go. I was about to read the manga myself but since it's getting an anime adaption, I might as well wait for it first. Gosick - Another famous stuff and I'll be checking this out too to see what's the hype about Dragon Crisis! - Well this setting seems interesting. Relics and dragons set in a modern settings. Probably will watch this. Kore wa Zombie Desuka - Because it has pretty nice character designs. Well not really zombie-like but that will have to wait until I watch the show to give more comments on them. Hopefully it's not as phail as HOTD... LEVEL E - Seems famous. This is an old classics remake it seems. The creator this had made epic manga such as Yu Yu Hakusho and Hunter x Hunter too so yea.. maybe will be trying this... |

Yeah, still finding it totally bizarre that those guys are doing a magical girl show, really wonder what that's going to be like.

Is this the same Future Diary with the manga with like a black cover and pink haired girl and a guy in the background with a cell phone and something about his cell phone messages being from the future? I remember reading the back of the manga and thinking it sounded interesting, I should look out for this show if this is the same thing? Last edited by DangerMouse; 2011-01-07 at 04:03. |

Filson Front Pocket Cash & Card Case (#11070422) 1/5/2017 Reviewer: Filsonfan, Location: Norfolk, VA, Occupation: Retired What you'd expect from Filson You would normally be concerned with a leather product this size -- as small as it is you would think stiffness would be a problem. It's not. The tanning process Filson uses renders the leather in this wallet as soft and supple as if it had been in use for years. You can fit multiple credit/id cards in the side pockets and a multitude of bills and/or additional cards in the center pocket -- just as the Filson description guarantees. Worth every penny. |
Filson Zippered Tote Bag (#70261) 8/18/2016 Reviewer: Jonny77, Location: Eatsound,Wa. 98245, Occupation: Real Estate Broker/Owner Arrived in great condition. I do wish Filson would still include the little padlock and key especially for the new higher prices. Just saying. Dungarees delivered yet again with great service and fast shipping! I am very pleased with their exemplary customer service and product quality. I will recommend them highly as I already have! Great prices too! |
Filson Large Rugged Twill Duffle Bag (#223) 10/25/2012 Reviewer: True49er, Location: South America, Occupation: Mining Engineer Durable Bag These Filson Bags are very durable and wear like iron. Easily strapped to the roof a car or thrown in the back of a truck. The Extra Large bag is too heavy for most people to carry when full, buy to large bags if needed. |
