There Could Be Another Villain in The Dark Knight Rises, and 5 Other Stories You'll Be Talking About Today
Also in this Tuesday edition of The Broadsheet: Tim Burton has an update on Dark Shadows... Alice Braga headed to Elysium... Kung Fu Panda 2 breaks one box office record... and more ahead.
· Because you can never have enough villains fighting Batman, rumor has it that recently cast Matthew Modine may play a heavy in The Dark Knight Rises alongside Tom Hardy, Anne Hathaway, Marion Cotillard and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (assuming those latter two are playing baddies). Late last week, gossiper Roger Friedman reported that Modine is set to star as Nixon, "a politician and a key villain." Little else is known about the character, but add your speculative thoughts about what this means for Bruce Wayne in the comments below. [Showbiz411 via /Film]
· Good news, 3D haters: Tim Burton isn't planning on giving Dark Shadows an extra dimension. "There's people like, 'Everything's gonna be in 3D,' or 'I hate 3D!'" Burton told TheWrap. "I think people should have a choice. I don't think it should be forced on anybody. At the same time, it's great, some of it. It's like 'Yes or no!? 3D! Yes or no?!' It's like, well, you know, come on, whatever, some yes, some no." The Johnny Depp-led film arrives in theaters next May. [Wrap]
· Alice Braga (Predators, I Am Legend) has joined the cast of Neill Blomkamp's District 9 follow-up, Elysium. Matt Damon and Jodie Foster co-star; the film is set for release on March 1, 2013. [Deadline]
· Kung Fu Panda 2 may have slightly disappointed at the box office over Memorial Day weekend, but that doesn't mean you should start playing a small violin for DreamWorks Animation. The film -- which is poised to have huge international numbers -- established a new opening day record in China, just one week after Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides did the same thing. [Variety]
· You won't have Brad Pitt to kick around anymore... in the year 2043. "Will I be acting when I'm 80?" the Tree of Life rhetorically asked USA Today. "Definitely not." [USA Today]
· As if Twentieth Century Fox hasn't promoted the Friday release of X-Men: First Class enough, Los Angeles residents spotted ads for the film in skywriting over the holiday weekend. Check out an example below. [THR/Heat Vision]

There's two sides to every story. There's studies proving one thing and studies proving the other. Today my boyfriend and I had a discussion about whether coffee was healthy or not. He said it wasn't and I said it was. We both cited sources saying of why we were right.
Mine said it decreased the risk of diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. His stated coffee drinkers were more stressed.
Mine said it boosted metabolism, his said after a while it decreased metabolism.

"No empty threat: Credit-default swaps are pitting firms against their own creditors", The Economist, 06.20.2009, 79.
Bankruptcy codes assume that creditors always attempt to keep solvent firms out of bankruptcy. Six Flags and others are finding that financial innovation has undermined that premise.
Some investors take an even more predatory approach. By purchasing a material amount of a firm's debt in conjunction with a disproportionately large number of CDS contracts, rapacious lenders (mostly hedge funds) can render bankruptcy more attractive than solvency.
About two years ago Henry Hu of the University of Texas began noticing odd behavior in bankruptcy proceedings - one bemuse courtroom witnessed a junior creditor argue that the valuation placed on a firm was too high. With default rates climbing, he sees perverse incentives as a looming threat to financial stability.
[Perverse Incentives, Unintended Consequences]
"Like father, like son: There is a benefit in looking like dad", The Economist, 06.20.2009, 85.
There are few more foolish actions, from an evolutionary point of view, than raising another male's progeny.
The result, published in the latest edition of Animal Behaviour, is that children who looked and smelled like their fathers did indeed enjoy more paternal care than those who did not. They averaged +1 on the paternal investment index. The 'non-resemblers', those adjudged by outsiders not to smell or look like their fathers, averaged -1. This mattered, for there was also a strong connection between paternal investment and a child's nutritional state. Children whose index was +2 had an average BMI of 16.5. Those whose index was -2 averaged a BMI of 15.

And now I get to add an awesome award to my amazing collection: The Trooper Award! Woot! This award was sent to my friend Mrsupole by her friend Christine and Christine, bless her heart, graciously said I could have one too – but I didn't want to steal Mrsupole's thunder as she truly has been a Trooper this year. And then, lo and behold, Mrsupole tells me to take the award as I also deserve it. That's so generous. But then that's our Mrsupole, always generous and loving to all her bloggy friends.
Not one to toot my own horn (as opposed to our friend Auntie who is always tooting – LOL we know how she loves her broccoli!) I took a few moments and thought about being a Trooper and I'm going to agree that this past year has qualified me to accept this award. I have been a Trooper through all the pain of the accident, through the agonies and stress of school, through the pain of losing an aunt, an uncle, and my mom all within months of each other, and through enduring a viral infection better known as Shingles (which I would not wish on anyone).
So thank you Christine, and Mrsupole and congrats to Mrsupole and also to Auntie – we are all Troopers – why just this evening I trooped through something EmmaLou left behind in the back yard. Oops – maybe it's not that kind of trooping?

This Youtube video is posted by Ligonier Ministries, featuring Ravi Zacharias, Al Mohler and R.C. Sproul, discussing Let's Talk Post-Modernism and the Emergent Church...
Some people don't believe truth exists. I pity them. God provided the Bible for us; His Word. A person can choose to either believe the Bible in its entirety, or can choose to not believe. In my opinion, there is no middle ground.
Some people pick and choose what they will take, use and believe from God's Word, like they are enjoying a buffet. I like this, but I won't take any of that! God provided His Word, the Bible, so that all would know the truth.
Here is a Youtube video of Ravi Zacharias, entitled Why the Bible? Ravi Zacharias at the University of Illinois: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHRP0I2SrVs&feature=related
This Youtube video of The Emergent "Church"/Cult Documentary on PBS, is an interesting one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGSQjtWTpaw
It is easy to see how some people can be misled into thinking that truth doesn't exist. Especially since the carnal world view is being taught in schools everywhere, that truth is relative and not absolute, because God is no longer allowed in the educational system, at least in USA and Canada.
It's interesting to me to watch movements like this, because God's Word tells us to walk in the spirit and not in the flesh. With God being taught as being non-existant, or even worse, that He can be anything anyone wants to believe He is, proves that lies can be distributed as truth itself...and people will believe it. Sad. Very sad.
The worst part is that those who believe such nonsense, not only are wrong, but they will pay the price for eternity. They shall perish, for eternity.
Well, maybe the worst is equal to this, because the absolute worst is the fact that people are being misled by false preachers/teachers.
Here is a Youtube video of Paul Washer, entitled warning to professing christians: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCCKj9ZmUaA&feature=watch_response
In this video, Paul Washer lets everyone know that there is truth.
Do you believe in truth? If you are saved, you believe in truth. After all, John 14:6 tells us, "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
Until next time...

Let's Talk Truth...
Posted by Life with Lynnie at 4:34 PM

Hey there everybody. I guess this is my first post here of 2013. I find myself posting things I used to post here on Facebook instead. I don't know how I feel about that. I do have some plans for this blog this year. I will probably be posting more long form stuff here and maybe some of my writing projects that I am working on.
The reason I am posting today is to alert you to the Radio BrendoMan T-Shirts Kickstarter that Phil and I launched last week. We already reached our $500 goal and will be posting some awesome stretch goals soon. I would highly recommend checking it out. Also please give the show a listen if you haven't yet.
What's going on with everyone on this side? If you're not on Facebook, you probably aren't aware that I have lost 36 pounds since December 30th and I am on track to lose much more. I will detail that sometime on here. I also successfully migrated Radio BrendoMan off of Podbean and we are now hosting our files at Archive.org. I learned a lot through this process and also plan to share what I learned sometime soon. I've got a lot of irons in the fire right now though so I can't promise any timeframe.
I have always been very proud of my brother Carson. He has been a stage actor for the past several years and is pretty fantastic. He's also one of the funniest people I know. He is now doing stand-up comedy in Portland. You can find out more at his website, which I was happy to create for him. If you're in Portland, definitely check out one of his upcoming shows!
My friend Grace is an awesome graphic designer and a Photoshop wiz. She is now making her services available for affordable photo re-touching and restoration. You can check it out here. Grace made the awesome brendoman.com logo that you have seen on this blog for the last 9 years and that is just a hint of her expertise.
So some Gmail users lost all their mail over the weekend. I'm thanking my lucky stars it wasn't me, as was Lee Matthews at DownloadSquad:
When the news first broke of Gmail losing a small chuck of its users' inboxes, I had a rather terrifying realization: For nearly 8 years, I've been using Gmail as my only message store -- putting all my eggs in one basket, so to speak. If you use Gmail, you're probably now thinking the same thing as me: I really should have a backup.
The article gives helpful instructions to create a backup using hotmail, which is what I'm going to do since I already have a hotmail account. It also gives instructions on how to create a backup using a desktop email program and gives links to programs that will do the job for you. I highly recommend choosing one of these options and doing it. The few minutes you spend will definitely be worth it in the event that all is lost.
For those who don't know, Derick is my co-host on Pop Sickles. He also started a new movie blog yesterday and proceeded to write the greatest thing I have read on a blog in a long time:
To paraphrase a quote from NO STRINGS ATTACHED of all places "Some people live like there are no such thing as miracles, and some people live like everything is a miracle". SCOTT PILGRIM is a miracle. Movies like this aren't made, and in this movie making climate probably won't ever be made again. In terms of that quote, this is a movie about the former learning that the latter is true. If there's one thing I resent about my generation is that it exists only to point out how everything is terrible and how smart they are for pointing it out. But I never subscribed to any of that malarky. Life is beautiful and filled with amazing people and surprises. It's worth fighting for. It's worth improving yourself for. We fight these battles every day and there's nothing routine about it. It's epic. It's worth exposing your inner uselessness for. Perhaps it isn't as bad as you thought. Is it ever? SCOTT PILGRIM is sure begging for some of your love, but you know what? It loves you right back, you stupid asshole. You're going to ignore that? Please die, then.
Yeah man. Yeah. Check out Picture Start With Derick Armijo for more good stuff like this.
This post is serving two purposes. First, I just noticed that you can make blogrolls or your folders and tags from Google Reader by going to your settings and then the folders and tags section. Second, some folks have been asking me about what RPG blogs and other resources I have been subscribing to and this is a very easy way to list those. So here we go!
To make it even cooler, you can make pages featuring the latest posts from those tags, such as my RPG blog page and then other folks can subscribe to the feed for that page. It's kind of insane how many different ways there are now to aggregate and consume content. I think Johnny 5 would have flipped out over RSS and all its potential uses.
I am a huge fan of Netflix Instant Watch and instantwatcher.com makes finding the good stuff on the ever improving service even easier. You can easily check out what's new, what's popular, and what is about to expire, a feature I have found invaluable. The feature I use the most though is its listing of HD titles. I recently switched over to streaming on my PS3 since I let my Xbox Live Gold subscription expire and I haven't really looked back. Streaming on the PS3 isn't quite as streamlined as on the Xbox but it's a cheaper option and cheaper is good.
If you're not using Google Reader to keep up to date on everything, you're missing out. I'm still surprised when I find out folks still check tons of sites every day manually. I don't know what I would do if I still had to do that. Now there is a cool new feature of Reader called Google Reader Play that uses your subscriptions and things you mark as "Like" in Google Reader to present a slide show chock full of pictures, articles, videos, and other assorted awesomeness that you will enjoy. It seems to be an even more intelligent version of Stumbleupon.
Speaking of Stumbleupon, I've been meaning to write about this for awhile, but it has become completely unusable for me thanks to the friend shares feature. In my Stumble heyday, I was adding everyone as a friend who asked since I figured that was a good thing to do and I didn't see any reason not to. Then they added a sharing feature where friends could send articles to their friend's toolbars so that the next time they hit the Stumble button, they get the shared article. I get so many shares now that I can't actually Stumble. Every time I hit the button, I get a shared link from someone that is usually something lame and/or some kind of spam. There is no way to turn this off. As far as I can tell, there isn't even an easy way to remove people from my friends list. Is anyone else experiencing this?
A couple years ago I was riding to Disneyland with my friend Matt and he played a podcast he had recorded with our friend Jesse. It was going to be released on Quickstop Entertainment, which is now known as FRED. It was one of the funniest podcasts I'd ever listened to, one that definitely catered to my interests and sense of humor. Last week Matt and Jesse recorded their 50th episode. The content is completely NSFW, the subject matter varies so much I can hardly keep up, but that's what I love about it. Also, since episode 23 they've let me yap away for a couple minutes every week. Here's to you, Matt and Jesse. I couldn't even come close to 50 episodes back in my podcasting days so I definitely salute you.
Fans of Arrested Development might want to check out today's Shirt.Woot. If you buy it today it is $10 with free shipping.
Just to follow up on my review I posted of the show, Best Week Ever has some awesome set pics and a glowing review of the show. Seriously, just thinking about it right now makes me want to go see it again.
I read an article in the paper (yeah, those floppy paper things with printing on them we used to read in Social Studies) about Donate Games, an organization in Dana Point that is pretty awesome. They accept donated games from all systems, which are tax deductible, and sell the games on their site for a reasonable price. All money collected goes to raise money for research for rare diseases. You'll probably get more out of your tax deductible receipt than you'll ever get from Gamestop and it's for a good cause. I just bought a few DS games I've been looking for that are usually a tad on the expensive side or just plain hard to find. Check it out!
The next time someone in your family is pestering you because their computer is "acting weird," just send them to this site. I can honestly see it having a sort of placebo effect.
I'm not going to lie. I'm getting a little annoyed with AVG. I've been using their free antivirus since 2001 and haven't had any viruses or other issues since I started using it but I'm getting a little annoyed by their increasingly intrusive nagging for their paid version and their browser hijacking safesearch or whatever it is. This Download Squad post about cloud-based Immunet Protect definitely piqued my interest as it doesn't require definition updates and it has an extremely low footprint. Has anyone tried this out? If not Immunet, what other free solutions have you tried and had success with?
Pitchfork is offering the new Wesley Willis documentary, Wesley Willis's Joy Rides: It's a Rock You Mentary free to stream on their website right now. It's pretty awesome. Longtime readers of the site will know that Wesley is kind of an icon for us and we got to meet the legend in person during Spring Break St. Louis in the spring of 2002. I don't know about you guys, but I still tell that story to folks. Drop the bomb...
If for some insane reason you don't already own these or even more insane you haven't seen the show, now is your chance. Today only Amazon is selling the complete series set for $28.99. It makes a great gift! Not for me though, seeing as how I know what a good TV show is and have owned it for quite some time.
I just read the announcement that Google has launched Google Public DNS and I am pretty excited to try it out. I am currently using OpenDNS at home since having some serious issues with Time Warner's DNS servers last year and I have been extremely pleased. I may decide to keep using OpenDNS after trying out Google, but it's nice to know there are options out there and that other big internet companies are seeing the importance of DNS. David Ulevitch, the founder of OpenDNS, has written a really well thought out response here. I went to high school with David and he is a very intelligent guy and really knows what he is doing so this is definitely something I will keep my eye on. In the meantime, all you have to do to get started using Google DNS is change your DNS servers in your connection settings to 126.96.36.199 and 188.8.131.52. I can already see that Google doesn't have some of the more advanced features that OpenDNS has, but that could change in the future.
Getting tired of hearing crazy 2012 talk around the office? Print this out and give it to your local wackjob.
Found via Reddit. In other news, I think I'm starting to like Reddit more than Digg, mostly because the stories on Reddit seem to appeal to me more and it seems less like a competition.
So I got into Google Wave on Friday. I need some more people to Wave with because here is what a Wave I sent to Henry looks like:
It does look cool but you can tell it's still in the growing stages. I am really looking forward to using it to collaborate with Phil on Brax and some of the other various projects I am working on at any given time. If you're looking for an invite hit me up here or on Twitter. I have
9 7 0 left. The caveat is they don't get sent out right away so I have no idea when you'll actually get a Wave account.
Update: All my invites are gone for now. I'll update this if I get more.
Update 2: I have 29 invites now!
I'm on the front page of the Long Beach Comic Con website:
BrendoMan: Now available for all your pull quote needs.
Wondering if your favorite new show is on the bubble? This site can give you a pretty good idea and appears to be updated on a regular basis. Unfortunately that appears to be bad news for Parks and Recreation, which is marked as "Endangered." This saddens me greatly because I feel the show is really starting to hit its stride, just like I predicted when it first started. I was happy to see that Community is in the OK category as I had heard some reports to the contrary. That still might be the case, but for now, I'm going to believe this site. It uses colors!
Forget Columbus, it's all about my namesake, St. Brendan. If you're wondering why, I'll let this post explain:
You see, nearly a millennium before Christopher Columbus's famed trip on the Niña, the Pinta, and the Santa-Maria, St. Brendan got the moniker "Brendan the Voyager" for completing a rather impressive journey that took seven years. According to the extant sources, St. Brendan went looking for the Garden of Eden, but may well have stumbled across the New World in little more than a leather-clad boat sometime between 513-530 CE. In fact, some even claim that Christopher Columbus himself was inspired by the monk's journey, and is reported to have written in his travel log before leaving on his historic trip, "I am convinced that the terrestrial paradise is in the Island of Saint Brendan, which none can reach save by the Will of God."
Yeah, that's right, Brendan the Voyager. While it's still highly speculative whether or not Brendan made it to America, he sounds like a pretty interesting fellow.
Somebody sent me an email the other day asking if I would ever do a podcast again. I was rather honest in my response, saying that I was frankly too lazy. Podcasting is a lot of work if you want to do it well. That's becoming less and less of a fact now, especially with services like AudioBoo. AudioBoo is both a website and an iPhone application. The app lets you record up to five minutes of audio and upload it to the AudioBoo servers straight from your iPhone. You can also listen to the most recent recordings of others straight from your phone. From the site you can actually create a profile (which is necessary to use the iPhone app to record podcasts), follow people whose podcasts you like, and subscribe to automatically generated podcast feeds for individual users, recommended podcasts, or even the entire AudioBoo community.
If you're looking for interesting people to follow on AudioBoo, you should of course start with me. I also recommend webcomic authors Scott Kurtz, Brad Guigar, and Kris Straub. Another great thing about the site is how easy it is to get your recordings out into the world. You can easily have it automatically post your new Boos to Twitter and other social applications. I already mentioned the automatic podcast feeds and iTunes links. Finally, it is easy to embed the audio files themselves anywhere you wish. For example, here is my latest Boo that I recorded while riding The Haunted Mansion last week:
Pretty cool, huh?
Make your own here. I seriously can't wait for the third season to start on August 16th. I would have to say of all the shows I am currently watching, MadMen is definitely in the top three.
I know you guys all want your very own Brax The Alien Rocker stickers and now you can have them. You can find instructions on how to request one at Brax's blog. There is also a pretty good chance we will have them at Comic-Con so if you can find us wandering around we will be happy to give you one.
Speaking of Comic-Con, I am eagerly awaiting the programming schedule which is supposed to be posted today. Now I can plan exactly what I'm going to do but then end up only doing about a third of those things. Good times!

Rose R. Biglay
Feb. 16, 1925 – July 29, 2017
Beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend to many, Rose Rico Biglay passed away peacefully at her home on the morning of July 29, 2017, in Lake Isabella, Calif.
Rose was born on February 16, 1925, in San Buenaventura, Mexico, the eldest of four siblings. Her father, Rosendo Rico, was a farmer and a caretaker of horses; and her mother, Cecilia Lorenz Rico, was a school teacher. Her siblings were Becky, Jesse and Helen. After her parents passed away, and while still a teenager, Rose was raised with her eight cousins by her Aunt Carmen and Uncle Jesse in San Antonio, Texas.
Rose married George David Biglay, Sr., on March 19, 1944. Rose and George had three children, George Jr., Jesse and Yolanda. After they married, George Sr. and Rose moved to the Texas coast and eventually to Garden Grove, Calif. Rose was a homemaker before becoming a pre-school teacher with the Garden Grove Unified School District. Upon retiring from the school district, she moved to Lake Isabella to be with George Sr. and got involved in the local Head Start program. Rose retired (again) at 83 years young. George and Rose were married 66 years at the time of George's passing in September 2010.
Rose will be dearly missed by her children, George Jr., Jesse and Yolanda; her grandchildren Dawn and David, Melody, David and Deepa, Tiffany and Sam, Justin and Jessica, and Danielle and Dave; her great-grandchildren Avalon Rose, Honor Alexander, Breken Lee and Grace Rose; and her cousin Lottie, along with many other loved ones.

Living the Dream
Making Paper Umbrellas
TaiwanFest showcases culture, art, and paper cranes
"TaiwanFest showcases culture, art, and paper cranes"
by Alison Shouldice via "The Star"
For Harry Chen, a folded paper crane is a hope for many things: freedom, democracy, world peace — and his own good health.
Chen, a Taiwanese-Canadian, has recently made a habit of folding small origami paper cranes.
He has also spent the last two years living with kidney cancer.
"When I was in the hospital, I started to fold those things," he said, but it's a skill he's had for some time. At six years old, his kindergarten teacher first taught him origami to stop his crying.
After undergoing surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, Chen's cancer is now under control. In July 2014, when he was out of the hospital but still recovering, he began folding more cranes in his spare time: on the bus, in the doctor's waiting room and while out shopping with his wife.
He was inspired by the story of Sadako Sasaki, a Japanese girl who famously attempted to fold 1,000 paper cranes in 1955 for good health. Sasaki developed leukemia after she had been exposed to radiation from the Hiroshima atomic bomb as a young child.
With Sasaki in mind, Chen kept folding, and just 10 months later, he stopped at 2,345: a representation of Taiwan's 23.45 million population.
Chen is displaying his cranes, attached onto mobiles, at TaiwanFest this weekend at the Harbourfront Centre. On Friday evening, a crowd had already gathered around Chen's display.
Organizers expect up to 50,000 people to pop in between Friday and Sunday for the festivities.
In addition to Chen's mobiles, there are several other art and cultural pieces on display throughout the Harbourfront grounds. The festival is multidisciplinary, incorporating art, music, culture and food.
It's held for two weekends back to back: this weekend in Toronto the next in Vancouver. The guests tend to be Taiwanese-Canadians coming from all areas of the city, according to the festival's managing director Charlie Wu.
But the event is also for Torontonians who may not know a lot about Taiwan.
"It's important for TaiwanFest to be in downtown venues," Wu said. "We always feel that Taiwanese-Canadians and Asian-Canadians like to share their cultures in a more mainstream environment where other Canadians get to see it."
Diverse programming is the key to attracting non-Taiwanese Canadians to the festival, he said. For instance, this year, they are hosting a fashion designer whose heritage is of Taiwan's indigenous peoples, who dwelled on the island for thousands of years before the now-predominant Han Chinese began arriving in numbers in the 17th century. It's hoped that presence of the designer, known simply as Andre, attracts Torontonians with a general interest in fashion or indigenous peoples' culture and art. . . . .

So I have been eating either a protein shake, steel cut oats and agave nectar or an egg burrito in the mornings. Today, I had the eggs after nearly getting blown away on my morning run.
Anyhow it consists of:
1 whole egg
2 egg whites
1 Whole wheat tortilla
2 cups of spinach (fresh)
1.5oz of Feta cheese
chili sauce
All the in a big 'ol burrito is only... 268 calories. I know this to a "T". Down to measuring out the oz for the feta.
Try it sometime... it's really delish.

Magic Fantasy in Italy - Scrapbooking Layout with painting
today I want to share a combination of a painting (I already made last year) and scrapbooking.
It took me one year to got the perfect photos for this layout. And finally I can share it. The drawing remembers me of our vacation in Italy but the photos are made at the sea in Germany. I found a photo of an italian street view on Pinterest (theberry.com - https://de.pinterest.com/pin/263390278176476966/) and used it for my drawing.
Usually I don't frame any layouts, but this one got one. I so love this one.
This was the painting without photos. As you can see, I only added the photos and gave them a shadow, and I added some word stickers.
I share it with the fabulous Paint Party Friday. Happy PPF all!
Thanks for visiting me today!
Have a great day!

Erud Vahn
Erud Vahn was a Techmarine of the Death Guard during the Great Crusade. One of the foremost "Forge Tyrants" of his Legion, he was a master of alchemic warfare and spent long years studying on Mars. When Mortarion declared for Horus at the start of the Horus Heresy, Vahn found himself more closely aligned with the Mechanicum and remained loyal. Vahn renounced his legion, becoming a Blackshield in a warband under Endryd Haar. Serving as Haar's second in command, Vahn fought in the Xana Incursion,[1] where he was wounded by Haar after objecting to Haar's decision to help the Callidus Assassin raid the secret weapons facility beneath Xana-Tisiphone rather than simply capture the Ordinatus Ulator engines they had come for and withdraw. Haar spared his life because he was still needed, and Vahn reluctantly yielded. He deactivated the explosive collars on Xana's prisoners, allowing them to fight back against their captors,[2] and went on to lead the force that captured the Ordinatus Ulator Ashurax.[1]

I'm back. I think I owe you an explanation to what happened. Basically, they lured me into the apartment, tackled me, I shot Eracis. They tried taking me to his dimension. My hair started falling off and stuff, they wanted to literally stick me on a tree and make me suffer there, somehow, that's all that happens there to non-agents: you suffer. Time goes faster there. I counted 13 days, whereas only one passed in the real life. I came so low as to asking to join them. They laughed and told me it was too late. I am happy they didn't accept me. I would have regret it.
Anyway, something happened, I don't really know what, and I fell off. I ran, and I fell into this ditch and blacked out. I woke up in a hotel room bed, with a note on my bedside. It said: "You're fucking welcome".
I don't know who helped me, whoever did, I'm not trusting him.
Last month or so, I've been hiding across NY City, sleeping in the streets.
That's about it for now. I'm trying to find out who's been helping me. Whoever he/she is, he/she has a lot of explaining to do.

The race for South Carolina attorney general might seem a little imbalanced.
Incumbent Attorney General Alan Wilson has raised nearly $1 million this year for his campaign and has statewide name recognition as an officeholder and with a congressman father, U.S. Rep. Joe Wilson, R-S.C.
Moreover, Wilson's conservative positions on issues from gay marriage to voter registration are in sync with a majority in a diehard red state like South Carolina. And, in four years, Wilson has avoided blunders that might leave him vulnerable as he runs for his second four-year term in the $92,007-a-year post.
Wilson's opponent, Parnell Diggs, a Grand Strand lawyer, is blind, has no statewide name recognition and, at last ethics report filing, had raised only $16,398. He has never held elective office. He placed third in the Democratic primary in 2012 for the state's newly created 7th Congressional District.
"Diggs has quite a mountain to climb – but it's not that he's a bad candidate," says longtime pundit Neal Thigpen, a retired Francis Marion University political science professor. "Most Democratic challengers to down-ballot statewide constitutional offices lack money and do have a hard time getting attention."
But, say Thigpen and others, Diggs is an able, accomplished person who leads a productive life despite being blind.
Diggs, 45, who graduated from Irmo High School, has qualifications that include: graduating from the University of South Carolina in 1991 with a double major in religion and political science and the USC School of Law in 1994.
A Myrtle Beach resident whose law offices are in the Garden City area, Diggs has been an activist in pushing for state and federal legislation for disabled persons. He is also current president of the 2,000-member National Federation of the Blind of South Carolina and sits on the board of the national umbrella organization.
Harrell and more
Wilson, 41, is already the clear winner in getting free publicity.
With this year's high-profile investigation of House Speaker Bobby Harrell – an investigation that led to Harrell's indictment on criminal misconduct charges last month – and Wilson's ongoing legal fight to deny same-sex couples equal marriage rights, the attorney general has rarely been out of the news in recent months.
To Republicans such as longtime state Sen. John Courson, R-Richland, Wilson's efforts to indict Harrell – despite legal roadblocks – mark the incumbent as someone special.
"Speaker Harrell is innocent until proven guilty, of course, but the fact that a freshman attorney general in an election year would investigate one of the two most powerful political figures in the state – a person who is a member of his own party – one has to admire and respect Wilson for doing that," Courson said. "The guy's got guts."
The Harrell saga is still playing out. In July, Wilson, facing questions over whether he should be disqualified, authorized 1st Circuit Solicitor David Pascoe to prosecute the case. Early in September, Pascoe orchestrated Harrell's indictment by the Richland County grand jury. Harrell, now suspended from his post, is apparently the first S.C. House speaker ever indicted in office.
The Harrell case might be Wilson's main accomplishment, but it also occasioned one of his biggest missteps.
That happened in April 2013, when Wilson met top Harrell aide Brad Wright alone in Wilson's office. According to the aide, Wilson made a threat about what might happen if Harrell didn't vote for certain ethics legislation. Wilson denied that allegation. That meeting, which came during a SLED investigation into Harrell's affairs, became the legal reason why Harrell's lawyers requested a state judge to remove Wilson from the State Grand Jury investigation.
"Meeting somebody in a room without a witness – that is something I never will do again – ever," Wilson says.
Apart from that, Wilson cites actions he's proud of:
• Fighting against President Obama's Affordable Care Act. Although it is now law, Wilson said he fought successfully with other attorneys general to make sure states could chose not to expand Medicaid.
• Working to pass in 2012 a strong human sex and labor trafficking law in South Carolina.
• Coordinating the state Internet Crimes Against Childrren Task Force that tracks and arrests Internet sexual predators. Dozens have been arrested during Wilson's four years. Wilson and his staff also travel to schools explaining the dangers of the Internet to young people.
• Speaking out against domestic violence and holding an annual memorial for victims.
Wilson also points out he worked with politicians of both parties to help pass Emma's Law – stiffening the laws for drunk drivers – and a gun control bill that helps keep firearms out of the hands of mentally ill people.
"He can reach across the aisle," said Rep. James Smith, D-Richland, who happens to be both Democratic deputy leader in the S.C. House and Wilson's campaign attorney.
Smith also knows Diggs, having gone to law school with him in the 1990s. "Parnell was an impressive individual then, and he is now," Smith says. "He's a serious guy who cares deeply about issues facing the state."
Diggs' approach
Diggs, who was born in Charlotte and moved to South Carolina at the age of 9, knows he's an underdog.
He doesn't hide his handicap. The first sentence in his campaign bio starts, "Parnell Diggs was born blind ... "
That didn't stop him, his bio says. As a child, he climbed trees and rode bikes. In high school, he was on the varsity wrestling team and made the all-state honors chorus. While at USC, he couldn't wait tables or work a cash register, so he played the guitar and sang Cat Stevens and Simon and Garfunkel songs at nightspots for $50 an hour to make money.
In 1994, then-Sen. Warren Giese, R-Richland, hired Diggs to be a Senate page, one of the first blind pages in the Legislature. Giese had met Diggs while Diggs was lobbying for Braille literacy and other laws to enhance blind people's opportunities.
"What I look for in pages is superior people in terms of brightness and the ability to be creative and deal with whatever comes up," the late Giese told The State in 1994 for a newspaper article. "I think Parnell has all those qualities."
Jaime Harrison, chairman of the S.C. Democratic Party, said, "Parnell is a very serious candidate and represents the diversity of the party. He's been going across the state making speeches, helping with get-out-the-vote efforts. And what he definitely lacks in resources, he makes up in heart and spirit."
Although Diggs clearly has "an uphill battle," variables such as how well state Sen. Vincent Sheheen, D-Kershaw, does in his race against Gov. Nikki Haley could propel him to victory, Harrison said.
Diggs believes in an activist government. When he was 6, Congress passed legislation – now known as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act – that for the first time mandated that blind and other handicapped children be given opportunities equal to sighted people in public schools. That law made it possible for him to go to public school and get the same education as sighted children, he said.
"So I have a very strong belief we need an effective local government, state government and federal government," Diggs says. "Without a strong federal government, I wouldn't have had a chance to go to public schools. The feds forced the Charlotte schools to put me in a class with sighted children."
Diggs gets around with a white-tipped cane and uses various software to allow him to "read" text on his computer and his smartphone. If need be, he might bring a sighted person into a courtroom to serve as his eyes. A driver takes him from place to place.
Where they differ
Diggs and Wilson take sharply different positions on:
• Same-sex marriage rights. Diggs is for it. Facing almost certain defeat in federal court, Wilson continues to fight against it, saying 80 percent of South Carolinians voted to deny gay couples equal rights in a state constitutional amendment and he is bound to uphold the state Constitution. "My job is to represent the state's interests until there are no more interests to represent."
• Affordable Care Act and Medicaid expansion. Diggs is for it. Wilson is against it and has fought to get them declared unconstitutional.
• Voter identification. Diggs thinks it should be easier to vote. Wilson successfully fought to require voters to show a photo ID to avoid voter fraud, although no substantial evidence of fraud has been found in South Carolina.
With candidates' differing views, it might have been educational for voters to see a televised debate. But neither candidate sought a debate, and one will not be held.
Blind politicians who win office are rare.
In recent years, legally blind David Paterson, a New York state lieutenant governor, served two years as governor after Gov. Eliot Spitzer was forced from office in a scandal. Paterson did not run for re-election. In South Carolina, no blind persons have been elected to statewide office in memory.
Diggs says the grit he has shown in overcoming his blindness has given him the character to serve as attorney general. "Blindness is not the characteristic that defines me."
Wilson wants another four years. "I feel I've upheld the dignity of the office and operated on a plane a lot of people didn't expect."
He said he doesn't mind criticism. "My job is to take a position – so I'm always going to offend somebody. I try to do the right thing and trust it will all play out."

5 Question: Answer the following questions about C 6 H 12 O 6 1. How many elements are involved? 2. How many atoms are involved?
6 Answer: 1. Elements - 3 (C, H, O) 2. Atoms - 24
7 Atom The smallest unit of matter that still retains the properties of an element.
8 Components of an Atom Component Charge Mass Location 1. Proton positive 1 nucleus 2. Neutron neutral 1 nucleus 3. Electron negative ~0 around the nucleus
9 Carbon - Atom Protons - 6 Neutrons- 6 Electrons- 6
10 Atomic Number Equals the number of protons within the nucleus of an element. Examples: Hydrogen (H) - 1 Sodium (Na) - 11 Carbon (C) - 6 Oxygen (O) - 8 Gold (Au) - 79
11 Atomic Mass Equals the number of protons + neutrons. Examples: Hydrogen (H) Sodium (Na) - 23 Carbon (C) - 12 Oxygen (O) - 16 Gold (Au) - 197
12 Charge of an Element Question: Answer: protons = electrons charge is neutral Question: Answer: protons electrons the charge is either negative or positive
13 Isotope Atoms of elements with different number of neutrons. Examples: carbon - 12 carbon - 13 carbon - 14
14 Isotopes of Carbon Nucleus 12 C 13 C 14 C protons neutrons electrons 6 6 6
15 Radioactive Isotopes Unstable isotopes. Spontaneously emit small beta particles from the nucleus. Examples: Carbon-14 Hydrogen-3 Potassium-40
16 Electrons orbit around the nucleus first bonding orbital - 2 electrons all other bonding orbitals - maximum 8 electrons orbitals have certain energy levels orbitals farther from the nucleus have the highest energy level.
17 Sodium and Chlorine Electrons Bonding Orbitals Na Cl
18 Gases Elements with 8 electrons in outer shell are called: noble gases or inert gases Examples: Helium (He) only 2 electrons Neon (Ne) Argon (Ar)
19 Chemical Bonding Three types of bonds with different strengths: covalent > ionic > hydrogen
20 Covalent Bonds strongest bond two elements share one or more pairs of outer electrons single and double bonds Examples: 1. H 2 O (water - polar molecule) 2. CH 4 (methane) H 3. O 2 (dioxide) H-C-H O=O H H + O - H +
21 Ion atom or molecule with an electric charge. resulting from a gain or loss of one or more electrons. Examples: Sodium ion (Na + ) Chloride ion (Cl - )
22 Ionic Bonds second strongest bond two ions with opposite charges attract to each other. Examples: salts (NaCl) acids bases
23 Ionic Bond Example: salt (NaCl) Na Cl
24 Electronegativity The tendency for an atom to pull electrons toward itself. Electronegativity values for atoms of selected elements: H(2.1) Li(1.0) Be(1.5) B(2.0) C(2.5) N(3.0) O(3.5) F(4.0) Na(0.9) Mg(1.2) Al(1.5) Si(1.8) P(2.1) S(2.5) Cl(3.0) K(0.8) Ca(1.0) Ga(1.6) Ge(1.8) As(2.0) Se(2.4) Br(2.8)
25 Electronegativity Electronegativity Difference and Bond Type: Difference Bond Example Covalent (nonpolar) H-H Covalent (polar) H-Cl 0.9 H Covalent (very polar) H-F Ionic NaCl 2.1
26 Hydrogen Bonding weakest of the three bonds. Most important and common of all bonds. Partially positive hydrogen atom of one molecule is attracted to the partially negative atom of another molecule (O or N). Example: H 2 O hydrogen bonds H + H + O - H + O - H + O - H + O - H + H + H +
27 Water (H 2 O) There are several properties of water that make it unique. 1. States of water. 2. Cohesion and surface tension 3. High heat of vaporization 4. Evaporative cooling 5. Ice is less dense than liquid 6. Versatile solvent
28 Question: What are the three states of water? Answer: 1. ice 2. liquid 3. water vapor (gas)
29 Water (H 2 O) 2. Cohesion 1. Hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) cause water molecules to stick together. 2. Aides in the transport of water from roots to the leaves. Surface tension 1. Related to cohesion (H-bonds) 2. Allow water striders (insects) to walk on water.
30 Water (H 2 O) 3. High heat of vaporization 1. Water absorbs more heat than most substances. 2. It takes a lot of heat to raise the temp of water, thus must lose a lot of heat to lower the temperature. 3. Stabilize and protects organisms from rapid change in temp. Example: ocean
31 Water (H 2 O) 4. Evaporative cooling 1. Related to high heat of vaporization. 2. Water can absorb a great deal of heat before evaporation. Example: Heat absorbed by water evaporation cools organism
32 Water (H 2 O) 5. Ice is less dense than liquid 1. H-bonding produces an open structure when frozen. Question: Why is this significant to living systems like lake or ponds? Answer: lakes or ponds do not freeze solid, thus insulating the underlying water and its organisms.
33 Water (H 2 O) 6. Versatile solvent Water dissolves an enormous variety of solutes. solvent (water) + solute (salt) solution
34 Water (H 2 O) Remember: 1. Water is a good solvent and is hydrophilic (water loving) for other polar molecules and ions. 2. Hydrophobic (water hating) interactions occur between water and non-polar molecules like fat (lipids).
35 Acids Proton donor High number of H + - protons and low # of OH - Examples: HCl (hydrochloric acid) H 2 SO 4 (sulfuric acid)- ACID RAIN H + H + H + H + H + H + H + H + H + H + H + H + H + H + H + OH - OH -
36 Base Proton acceptor Low number of H + and high # of OH - Examples: NaOH (sodium hydroxide) NH 3 (ammonia) OH - OH - OH - OH - OH - OH - OH - OH - OH - OH - OH - OH - H + H +
37 ph Scale Scientist use the ph scale to describe the acidity of a solution. ph stands for potential hydrogen. The scale ranges from 0 (most acidic) to 14 (most basic). Each ph unit represents a tenfold change in the concentration of H +, - thus ph 2 has 10x as many H+ (protons) as ph 3.
38 Neutral Solution ph of 7 is neither acidic or basic. It is said to be neutral. This means that there are as many H + as OH -. Pure water and blood are neutral. H + H + H + OH - OH -OH- OH - OH - OH - H + H + H +
39 ph Scale 1. H+ equals OH- 2. ph values of basic (alkaline solution) 3. ph values of acidic solution 4. Progressing from weak to strong acid 5. Progressing from weak to strong base 6. Result of adding H+ to a solution 0 acid 7 base 14 d f c g a e b
40 Buffers Substances that resist change in ph. Accepts H+ when ph is to low (acidic). Donates H+ when ph is to high (basic).
(1) e.g. H hydrogen that has lost 1 electron c. anion - negatively charged atoms that gain electrons 16-2. (1) e.g. HCO 3 bicarbonate anion
