Home owners 'spending an average of £11,000 on moving house'
Home owners' moving costs have increased by around £870 over the past year to reach nearly £11,000 on average, a report has found.
Rising house prices have driven the increase, pushing up estate agency, stamp duty and conveyancing fees, Lloyds Bank said, taking the typical cost of moving home to £10,996.
In London, home movers can expect to pay £4,732 more than a year ago, with the average cost of moving there now standing at £31,416.
The particularly sharp rise in moving costs in London is mostly due to London house prices having increased by 14.5% over the last year, compared with an increase of 8.5% across the UK generally.
The average home mover in London pays more than £15,000 in stamp duty and £11,000 in estate agency fees, the report found.
Mike Songer, mortgage director at Lloyds Bank, said: "The cost of stepping up the housing ladder has continued to rise sharply over the past year.
"As a result, the cost of completing a home move in the UK has grown significantly over the past decade, to nearly £11,000.
"This trend is especially marked for buyers in London and the South East with the combination of both higher property prices and more rapid increase in prices in recent years resulting in significantly higher moving costs in these parts of the country."
The 9% increase in moving costs over the last year across the country is significantly higher than the rise in living costs generally, with a 0.6% Consumer Price Index (CPI) rate of inflation recorded in August.
Moving costs have also increased faster than earnings over the last decade, by 25% versus a 17% increase in full-time earnings, Lloyds said.
As a result, moving house now eats a bigger chunk out of people's earnings than it did 10 years ago.
The total cost of moving has increased from 30% to 32% as a percentage of gross annual earnings.
In London the average cost of moving has increased by 68%, or £12,680, over the past decade.
Moving costs in London now take up nearly three-quarters (72%) of annual earnings on average.
But with house prices varying widely across the UK, in some places the cost of moving has fallen over the past 10 years.
Moving cost in Northern Ireland, where house prices fell sharply after the economic downturn, have fallen by £1,957 or 27% over the past 10 years and now stand at £5,401 on average. Northern Ireland was found to have the cheapest moving costs across the UK.
The cost of moving home in the North East of England and Wales is also now slightly lower than it was 10 years ago, down by £111 and £154 respectively.
Moving costs in Wales are now £6 cheaper on average than they were a year ago. In Scotland, the cost of moving home has edged up by £125, or 2%, over the past year.
Here is how the cost of moving home across the UK adds up on average, according to Lloyds Bank, followed by the percentage and cash increase in these costs over the last year (figures have been rounded):
- Stamp duty, £2,504, 17%, £372
- Estate agency fees, £5,404, 8%, £402
- Surveyors' fees, £665, 0%, £0
- Home removal, £1,111, 0%, £0
- Conveyancing, £1,251, 8%, £93
- Energy performance certificate, £60, 0%, £0
Here is how the cost of moving varies across the UK, with the average cost now according to Lloyds Bank, followed by the change over the last year in percentage and cash terms and the change over the last 10 years in percentage and cash terms:
- South East, £20,210, 20%, £3,382, 27%, £4,329
- London, £31,416, 18%, £4,732, 68%, £12,680
- Yorkshire and the Humber, £7,730, 11%, £795, 8%, £582
- East Anglia, £10,973, 10%, £999, 30%, £2,558
- North East, £7,133, 9%, £604, minus 2%, minus £111
- Northern Ireland, £5,401, 6%, £328, minus 27%, minus £1,957
- South West, £11,098, 5%, £552, 20%, £1,823
- West Midlands, £9,814, 4%, £412, 15%, £1,314
- East Midlands, £8,389, 4%, £284, 7%, £565

Quick Reference
(1958– ),
Scottish writer, born in Edinburgh, generally seen as the first and most important member of the so‐called 'chemical generation' of younger British (mainly Scottish) writers, politically disaffected, culturally sophisticated, and centrally engaged with the music, drugs, and the mores of 1990s club culture. After leaving school at 16, Welsh did many jobs in Edinburgh and London, before taking an MBA in 1990. His first novel, Trainspotting (1993), about a group of young heroin addicts in 1980s Edinburgh, was sexually and scatologically explicit, written in a pungent Edinburgh vernacular, and distinguished by great comic verve. It quickly became a best‐seller and cultural byword; a stage version was followed by a film adaptation (1996). Its characters reappear in Porno (2002). Other works of fiction include the short‐story collections, The Acid House (1994) and Ecstasy: Three Tales of Chemical Romance (1996); and the novels, Marabou Stork Nightmares (1995), Filth (1998), Glue (2001), and The Bedroom Secrets of Master Chefs (2006).

Blydenburgh Park
recommendation by sari
I take my dogs here all the time. This park is huge, I think around 640 acres, and super dog friendly. They have a fenced in dog park that is separated into two parts for big and little dogs. It's not every day that you can take off your dog's leash and let him run around wild with other buddies. Admission to the park is free on the weekday but there is a small fee on the weekends. If you don't have a dog, you should come here for the rowboats or camping.

Tray 7:
Bottom teeth don't overlap as much, you can really tell on the right side of this pic. Top teeth don't turn toward each other like a book anymore. My filling on the front tooth is still chipped, but we can't fix it until everything is done. At my last appointment, we did another interproximal reduction aka trimmed my teeth a little on the bottom row. Didn't hurt. I hate the feeling of permanence, like if someone trims my teeth, that bit of tooth is going to be gone forever. Then again, I want a straight smile forever, so it doesn't really matter that my teeth are being trimmed. I'm getting a little lazy and keeping my trays out for more than 3 hours a day on some days. I have to stay more disciplined.

Soha to be questioned in Pataudi's black buck shooting
Bollywood actress Soha Ali Khan, daughter of cricketer Mansur Ali Pataudi and actor Sharmila Tagore, is likely to face legal trouble for concealing facts when she renewed her gun licence here.
Gurgaon district authorities indicated Tuesday that they would issue a notice to Soha Ali Khan, demanding to know why legal action should not be taken against her for her violation of legal requirements while renewing the gun licence. She is also likely to be questioned, authorities here said.
Soha Ali has been accused of concealing the fact that her rifle was being used by her father, Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi, and that he used that weapon to kill a black buck in 2005.
"We would serve her (Soha Ali Khan) a show-cause notice and ask her to appear before the investigating teams over a period of two weeks," Gurgaon Deputy Commissioner Rakesh Kumar Gupta said Tuesday.
The actress did not reveal crucial facts to the Gurgaon district administration while renewing the licence for the rifle that Pataudi allegedly used to kill a black buckin June 2005 in Jhajjar district of Haryana.
Soha's rifle was among the firearms seized when Pataudi was caught by the Jhajjar police with a black buck carcass.

This is what happens when two wannabe carpenters shack up. I just moved to Barranco, a district on the southern edge of Lima where there is more life in the streets, public art on the walls and beautiful tall trees replace the manicured and water-sucking parks of San Miguel and the university. I was weary about enjoying this widely-proclaimed cool neighbourhood but it is great here, almost like living in Kensington Market in Toronto. My roommate is an event organizer and architecture consultant originally from jungle areas in the northeast. When I mentioned that I needed a table and was off to the hardware store to buy some wood he came along and 4 hours later (minus the varnish) we had this masterpiece: cheap, 100% Chilean planted pine, stable and wonderfully conducive to spending hours writing. With the remaining bits from the planks, José built a shelving system for the kitchen. On Saturday, I am off to Cusco. In a half-hour I'll be off for lunch - vegetable-stuffed avocado anyone?

We didn't like Windows Desktop Search (complicated and too few search options, but that's for another day), so we uninstalled WDS, only to discover that we would be forced to use it if we wanted to use the Windows Live Suite Photo Gallery feature. Maybe this is what Microsoft calls "integration," but it is just the kind of thing that gets us steamed.
In defense of integration: Windows Live email and photo gallery and messenger all cross-pollinate, with links connecting one to the other. We've found this to be about 10 percent more convenient than whatever we were doing before.
You can use messenger to make phone calls at "incredibly low rates" from Verizon (yes, it actually says that in the app). Or just use your phone with the rate plan you already spent three months trying to understand.
Back to Photo Gallery: It does what it says. It will find the photos in your My Pictures folder, put them on the screen and facilitate some basic editing: Fine-tune the lighting, crop, rotate. To work with another folder you'll need to import that folder into the gallery, a quick and simple procedure.
The Photo Gallery has an especially attractive preview feature. Position your mouse over a thumbnail for a couple of seconds and a preview emerges, smaller than a full-sized picture but bigger than a thumbnail. Now move the mouse along the gallery's rows of thumbnails, and previews spring up each time the mouse crosses over a picture. Convenient, and it saves squinting.
Finally there is the Windows Live Toolbar, arguably either the worst or the best of the Windows Live components. The toolbar parks itself at the top of your Internet Explorer window. It lets you manage pop-ups, pick up RSS feeds, and fill in Web forms instantly.
The toolbar also can be customized with a dazzling array of stuff you already have bookmarked: eBay, Amazon, maps, MSNBC, YouTube, and more.
This is the best of Windows Live, delivering a wealth of Web content through a discreet toolbar and a collection of straightforward buttons. It's also the worst of this conception. Try as we might, we just don't see the need for most of this stuff.
All these functions, all this content ? it all is readily available and most of it stares at us from our desktop even as we type this. If the Windows Live Suite interface is neither especially more convenient nor significantly more exciting than what we are using, what exactly does Microsoft have in mind?
Of course, many of the Windows Live apps are still in beta, so perhaps there is more and better yet to come.
The suite currently includes the following apps and services: Windows Live Messenger, Windows Live Mail, Windows Live Writer, Windows Live Photo Gallery, Windows Live Toolbar, Windows Live OneCare Family Safety, and the Windows Live Sign-in Assistant.

Jayco, Inc. was founded in 1968 by a man of strong faith and vision. The late Lloyd J. Bontrager, family man and inventor, felt he could build the world a better RV. He longed to create a company of his own, one that clearly reflected his ideals: a company where everyone would be treated as "family".
With encouragement from his wife Bertha, Lloyd started Jayco on their farm--in two chicken houses and a barn! He developed his own prototype camping trailer and a unique lifter system for fold-down campers, the basic design of which is patented and still in use today. By the end of 1968, his fledging company of 15 employees had sold 132 fold-down camping trailers.
Today, Jayco's "family" of employees has grown to nearly 1,500 people, while more than 25,000 people join our "extended family" of customers each year.
At Jayco, our mission statement is: Committed to being the most respected name in recreation vehicles. We will consistently build a high quality, high value, competitively priced product at acceptable margins, treat every situation with the highest level of integrity in a timely manner, and continually work to reduce total cost to achieve acceptable returns.

Project Description
Arizona State University, in collaboration with Media and Processes Technology Inc., the University of Cincinnati, and Nexant Inc., will develop a bench-scale zeolite membrane reactor for water-gas shift (WGS) reaction with carbon dioxide (CO2) capture. The project is based on the previous successful lab-scale validation of a stable, hydrogen (H2) semi-permeable MFI-type zeolite membrane reactor. The research includes scaling up the synthesis of zeolite membrane tubes; design and fabrication of the membrane reactor modules; testing bench-scale zeolite membrane reactors; and process design and techno-economic analysis of the membrane reactor integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) process. Once developed, the bench-scale zeolite membrane WGS reactor will be tested using raw synthesis gas (syngas) from a coal gasifier for H2 production at a capacity equivalent to a 10 kWe IGCC power plant. The project goal is to develop a bench-scale zeolite membrane reactor with the capacity of producing 10 kg of H2 per day, and to identify the operating conditions for a single-stage membrane reactor to produce a concentrated H2 stream with carbon monoxide conversion higher than 99 percent, CO2 capture greater than 90 percent, CO2 purity greater than 95 percent, and a cost of CO2 capture at less than $40/tonne of CO2. The performance and cost-effectiveness of the membrane reactor process will be evaluated for use in a 550-MWe coal-burning IGCC plant for CO2 capture.
Project Benefits
This will be the first effort to study zeolite membrane reactors for high temperature chemical reaction and gas separation at this scale. The process design and techno-economic analyses, with the input of the experimental findings, will validate the effectiveness of the zeolite membrane reactor for WGS reaction and CO2/H2 separation. The results of this project will provide a foundation and guide for further scaling up of the membrane reactor technology for pre-combustion CO2 capture at pilot scale.

DETROIT - The all-new Buick LaCrosse and the Chevrolet Malibu were among the recipients of this year's Top Safety Picks from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
"Institute tests represent the four most common kinds of crashes," said IIHS president Adrian Lund. "Getting through these tough tests and earning the Institute's highest award means the Malibu and LaCrosse are in the top tier for safety."
The Top Safety Pick for LaCrosse and Malibu are significant because their principal competitors from Lexus, Acura, Toyota, and Honda respectively were dropped from the list, which for the first time required a "good" rating in a roof strength test. This test is a measure to help determine protection in rollover crashes, which are responsible for 9,000 highway deaths a year.
"Customers continue to tell us that safety is a top consideration in a new vehicle purchase and we are listening," said Susan Docherty, GM vice president of U.S. Sales.
In the roof strength test, a metal plate is pushed against one side of a roof at a constant speed. To earn a good rating for rollover protection, the roof must withstand a force of four times the vehicle's weight before reaching five inches of crush. This is called a strength-to-weight ratio.
"This recognition is important because customers are increasingly placing trust in credible third-party reports," Docherty said. "That's why the roof strength of the 2010 LaCrosse and Malibu were important to get right. We think this is one more reason for consumers to consider these cars."
Achieving a "good" rating in front and side crash tests and rear impact as well as electronic stability control were the other criteria used to select the 27 vehicles that received Top Safety Pick for 2010 compared with 94 in 2009. The Institute told automakers in January that it was adding the rollover test.

A man objectified me on social media, so I gave him a feminist smackdown
While attending a nutrition conference, my husband took a picture of me in a professional dress in front of a fruit background. Thinking the photo was great, I posted it on social media.
I received a ton of wonderful comments from friends and family, until this comment appeared.
Frankly, I was offended. First of all, I don't personally know this individual. They are a friend of a family member. Second of all, yes, I am curvy, and reside on the top-heavy side. Considering the fact that I wasn't posing provocatively or showing any cleavage, I found this comment to be unwarranted. Facebook offers an option to ask an individual who leaves a comment on your posts to remove them. I politely asked him to remove the comment and thought that it would just be removed without further incident.
I was wrong. What followed had my feminist blood absolutely boiling.
What is inherently wrong with this comment is that this individual is basically stating that by posting pictures on social media, you are leaving yourself open to negative comments, and if you don't like it, you shouldn't be on social media. So does this also mean that because if I leave my house and I am running the risk of someone harassing me on the street, I should just stay home to avoid those kinds of situations?
Sounds ridiculous, doesn't it.
Comments like these are the equivalent to street harassment, or cat-calling. This behavior is not limited to personal interactions with strangers, and has become a daily occurrence for many women both outside their homes and online. Cat-calling helps maintain an environment where the mentality that women are the weaker sex and violence is allowed to thrive, allowing rape culture to continue existing. It's not cute. It's not witty. It's not funny.
It's offensive. It's disgusting. It's violating.
Cat-calling creates feelings of uneasiness, self-judgement and doubt. I actually thought about taking the image down when I first saw the comment.
"Should I not have worn that dress? Does it really draw that much attention to my breasts? Maybe I should have worn pants and a blouse."
Uneasiness, self-judgment and doubt. And then anger. I realized that it is not my fault that this individual chose to see my body in a sexual manner while others chose to see it otherwise. It's not my fault that this individual took time out of his day, away from his wife and his daughter, to comment on my body. It's not my fault. It's never any woman's fault. The entire argument of "she was asking for it" holds no ground. No one ever asks for it. No matter how tight the dress. No matter how large the breasts. No matter how short the skirt.
This was my response.
To which I received a prompt:
No, good sir, I will not get over myself, nor will I be getting over myself anytime soon. It is you who should stop publicly objectifying women. It's not funny. It's not cute.
And frankly, you should be setting a better example for your daughter. You should be teaching her to find a man that is kind, respectful of women and a gentleman. A man who will appreciate that a woman can be sexy without making her feel uncomfortable about it. A man that would never hide behind social media and believe that it is OK to make offensive comments toward someone that they don't even know because that person is not directly in front of them. You should be the walking, talking, perfect example of the partner you hope that she will someday find.
I hope you change.

How Garage Door Extension Springs Work
There are typically two garage door extension springs. One is mounted on the left side of the door and the other one on the right side. They are set above the horizontal track. The back end of each spring is attached to a special bolt or hook. The front end is attached to a pulley. When the overhead door is in closed position, the springs are stretched and loaded with force. During opening, this force is released enabling the lifting of the door. The lift cables connected to the pulleys work to bring the unit up. The springs contract during opening. During closing, they are stretched and get loaded with force again. Given the tension which they are under, these components should not be handled by people lacking appropriate technical skills. Leave this to the professional technicians of our garage door company providing repair and replacement services.

Luke 5: 36-39
36 He told them this parable: "No one tears a piece out of a new garment to patch an old one. Otherwise, they will have torn the new garment, and the patch from the new will not match the old. 37 And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. 38 No, new wine must be poured into new wineskins. 39 And no one after drinking old wine wants the new, for they say, 'The old is better.'"
As I was reading these verses, they kept tugging at me. I wanted to know what a wineskin was (sounds pretty weird to me) and just really decipher what Jesus was saying here. So with a little research, prayer and focusing on the Word, I finally grasped the meaning of what Jesus was saying. I felt that I needed to share this for anyone out there that's going through a struggle or rough time in their walk with God, and especially to those of you who don't know Him as your Savior yet. If you don't, I urge you not to click the back button or stop reading. I urge you to read and see how God truly loves all of His children.
In verse 36, the new garment can be thought of as the robe of righteousness, or blood of Christ. When we accept Christ as our Savior, the new garment covers our sins and takes place of the old garment, the filthy rags caused by our sin. Jesus says that no one can tear a patch from the new garment and sew it on to the old because the patch wouldn't match the old garment and the new garment would be torn in order to do so. What this means is that once we surrender to Him and accept Him into our heart, we can't turn back to our old ways and still be covered by His righteousness. We can't hold on to our old sins; the things that we used to put in place of God. Notice when the scripture says " he will have torn the new garment and the patch from the new will not match." Basically, BOTH garments will be ruined. Living in sin while simultaneously living for God is something that does not, never has and never will, exist. That's one of many reasons why God is so awesome. It's His way or the highway. He WANTS us to live for Him and He WANTS to help us, protect us, heal us, provide for us and love us! God, the one and only God wants YOU to love Him because He ALREADY loves you. Think about that for a minute. That's something that is so easily said (well…. typed too) but so easily passed over. Isaiah 61:10 gives a perfect example of how God has supplied the new garment for us:
"I delight greatly in the Lord;
my soul rejoices in my God.
For he has clothed me with garments of salvation
and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness,
as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest,
and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels."
Verse 37-39 talks about the wineskins and how if new wine is poured into an old wineskin, that it would burst. When I first read this verse, I thought to myself, "Self, what is a wineskin. That sounds pretty gross." So, I did a little research. Turns out, it is pretty gross… to us anyway. I'm sure people back in the time that Jesus walked the Earth thought that it was pretty awesome.
Wineskins are the skins of goats. The goats were skinned and the skins were sewed up to be like a vessel or a bottle. Grape juice would be poured into the skins and allowed to sit and ferment for long periods of time to make wine. When fermentation happens, gasses (Carbon Dioxide in this case) are released as a by-product. The gases would stretch the wineskin to it's very limit. Once the wine reached the desired point of fermentation, the wine would be poured out, but the wineskin would remain stretched. Since it was stretched to it's limit, it could not be used again because it would burst open when the gases would be released during fermentation during the second time around.
"Where are you going with this," I can hear y'all thinking. Well, the old wineskin is your old self (old garment) once you've been saved. You were stretched and filled full of your old sin, so there clearly couldn't be any hope, redemption or use for you. WRONG. That's where God steps in. Into you, I should say. He transforms you and changes you. He makes you into the new wineskin. Pure, clean and in prime condition. The new wine is the Grace of God. Our old selves, our old wineskins, cannot hold the grace that God wants to give us. It's already been used and tainted with sin. But how great is God to make us new and ready for the Grace to be poured into us! His grace fills us like wine into new wineskins. It stretches us to the limit, filling us up to maximum capacity with no room left for anything else. Our God wants ALL of us, not just a part. The KJV version of verse 38 says:
"38 But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved."
Did you grasp that. In the verses mentioned earlier we learned that both garments would be ruined if we tried to go back to our old selves. But here Jesus tells us that if we allow Him to come into our hearts and allow Him to make us into a new creation, that He would pour His grace in us and that BOTH would be preserved! How awesome is that!?
Verse 39 says that, "And no one after drinking old wine wants the new, for they say, 'The old is better."
This can be taken as a warning. It's all too easy to fall back on our old ways that we were used to, familiar and comfortable with. You can't say that the old wine is better than the new if you've never tried the new wine. Remember, the new and the old cannot be mixed or both will be ruined.
What I want the reader to get from this is that God WANTS to give you His grace and love. He wants to save you from whatever it is that you may be going through. Saved or not, Jesus is there for you to change you into something new and great and fill you up with His love, righteousness and blessings. How great is our God that He would WANT us, even while we were sinners, to love Him and to provide for us?

Coolio Crashes College Party, Sings 'Gangsta's Paradise'
Pretty cool of him.
Do they not teach proper iPhone video camera technique in college these days? Other than the vertical orientation faux pas, this is a pretty cool video of Coolio crashing someone's party for an acoustic version of "Gangsta's Paradise." Perhaps crashing is the wrong word — University of Central Lancashire student Olivia Johnson-Aley explains exactly what happened: "Met Coolio on a student night out in Preston and he said he wanted to cook for me and my house mates the following night and that's exactly what happened." So how was the food? "It was great!" said Reddit user lorcantc, who was also there:
He was playing a gig in our city, and a few of my housemates were in the VIP after party. He came back to our house afterwards, and told us that he wasn't busy that night so would come over and cook us dinner. We had Coolio's Caprese Salad, Chicken á la Daaaamn, and Peach Crumble. We also videoed a cooking show ("Cookin' with Coolio"). It was just as weird as it sounds.

Roth IRA: Tax-Free Retirement Account
Contributions to a Roth IRA,unlike those made to a Traditional IRA, are not tax-deductible. However, all withdrawals are tax-free.
The parameters for eligibility are the same as for the Traditional IRA. You have to have earned income to open a Roth IRA.
The eligible forms of compensation that have been specified by the IRS for contributing to a Roth IRA are:
- Job salary, wages, commission payments, tips and bonus payments
- Income earned from self-employment
- Received payments from Alimony awards
- Combat pay (non-taxable)
The types of payments that are not eligible for Roth IRA retirement plan compensation are:
- Annuity income
- Child support
- Capital gains, interest and dividend income
- Pension
Unlike a Traditional IRA, a Roth IRA allows making contributions at any age.
Contribution Limits to Roth IRA
Roth IRA maximum contributions are equal to the lesser of 100% earned income or $5,500.
An additional $5,500 may be contributed by a spouse who is employed, provided the IRA holder is currently unemployed or has been designated as a "low-income" earner.
An individual may make contributions to both a Roth IRA and a Traditional IRA. But the maximum aggregated contributions are not authorized to exceed a $5,500 limit, or if the contributor is 50 years of age (or older) the limit is $6,500.
Any individual that has an income that is eligible can open a Roth IRA provided that their Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) falls below a pre-determined income level.
|2016 Tax Year
|Married Filing Jointly or Qualified Widow (er)
|$184,000 and $194,000
|Single, Head of Household or Married Filing Separately (and you did not live with your spouse at any time during the year)
|$117,000and $132,000
|Married Filing Separately (and you lived with your spouse at any time during the year)
|$0 and $10,000
The lower number is an annual income level of which the taxpayer may contribute up to $5,000. The upper number represents the annual earnings level as of which the taxpayer is not allowed to contribute at all. If the income is in the range, then the contribution is reduced proportionally.
You can find how your AGI is determined by checking out the first page (bottom) of the taxpayer Form 1040.
Since the contributions have been made after tax has been removed, there is no tax assessed to regular contribution withdrawals that are made at any time. But capital gain and income accumulations can only be withdrawn, tax-free, after a 5-year period has passed after the initial deposit.
Once of the differences between a Traditional IRA and a Roth IRA is that the distribution of retirement funds from an individual's Roth IRA doesn't have to proceed upon reaching the age of 70 ½.
Early withdrawals of capital gain and income accumulations from a Roth IRA will incur a penalty tax of 10% if the individual has yet to reach the age of 59 ½.
The 10% early distribution withdrawal penalty will not be applied in circumstances relating to:
- The owner of the account has reached the age of 59 ½ (or older)
- The individual's death or disability
- Immediate family member's qualified education expenses
- Qualified medical expenses that exceed 7.5% of their AGI
- First-time home buyer ($10,000 lifetime maximum)
As with a Traditional IRA, a penalty tax (6%) is assessed to any excess contributed funds above the maximum allowed, that haven't been removed. That penalty is assessed at the time that the investor files their tax return (but not later than April 15
That penalty is assessed at the time that the investor files their tax return (but not later than April 15th).

NORTH HUDSON — Legal teams moved their metaphorical chess pieces into place over the battle for Frontier Town's future June 13 when William Russell, an attorney for Keeseville-based businessman George Moore, filed suit against Essex County and the town of North Hudson in an attempt to annul the board of supervisor's decision to reject Moore's bid to purchase the former theme park at a tax auction earlier this year.
While county and town officials were tight-lipped over the pending litigation, a development that is expected to stall transfer of the property until at least August when the case sees a preliminary hearing in State Supreme Court, residents of North Hudson have started to come forward in support of Town Supervisor Ronald Moore's decision to acquire the property, an effort that he has argued will bolster the town's sagging economic prospects.
Dan Snyder, a local resident who works across a variety of creative mediums, called the A-Frame, the landmark structure anchoring the property that George Moore acquired at a former tax sale, an important part of Adirondack history and tied its potential renewal to a larger symbolic movement sweeping the region.
"North Hudson is a classic example of a town dying," he said. "It's a classic example of what's happening throughout the Adirondacks."
Snyder said it was hard for him to view George Moore's intentions as sincere when it came to his purchase of what remained of the wild west theme park, a popular regional destination that was shuttered in the late-1990s, and his stated intention to use the parcels as a springboard for economic renewal.
Example A, said Snyder, was the A-Frame.
"Eight years ago, it was in a lot better shape than it is now," he said. "Mr. Moore bought it and put it up for sale, and the property has remained that way ever since. He hasn't done anything with it, nothing."
Snyder said under the town's stewardship, the now-disputed acreage would have a better chance of being utilized to jumpstart the town, 90 percent of which is constituted by state-owned land that eternally hamstrings development.
The North Hudson leader has told constituents and his colleagues at the board of supervisors that he hopes to revamp the land as a node for increased outdoor recreation, the opportunities of which are predicted to multiply with the anticipation of the addition of the Boreas tract to the state's holdings in the near future.
On Wednesday, June 18, the DEC released a draft management plan for the Essex Chain Lakes Management Complex and the connector trail plan that would link Newcomb, Minerva and North Hudson, including a bridge to be built at the outlet of Palmer Pond.
The public has until July 18 to chime in with their thoughts.
"At its peak, Frontier Town not only contributed thousand upon thousands in tax revenue, but provided jobs to countless teens and adults, not only in North Hudson, but surrounding communities in Schroon Lake and Moriah," Ronald Moore told the Valley News in an interview on Monday. "I'm not saying we will ever get back to that level of employment, but whatever we get to is better than nothing."
Moore said up until last year, the town gave up hoping that an opportunity would present itself that would allow them to dig themselves out of the hole.
"But it did," he said. "I think the private sector had their chance and failed us miserably. We should at least try to do something to improve our chances for business growth and economic recovery. I believe we can do better, and that's why I have asked for the opportunity to try through this acquisition."
George Moore said he would have developed the property sooner but was prohibited from doing so because he did not own all of the parcels that constituted the once-unified park.
Snyder said that while he understands the other side of the argument — that the county's decision to award the property to the government despite a private citizen offering a higher price undermines free market principles — he said that George Moore, who is 87 and lives in Keeseville, has simply dropped the ball.
"He's squashing us, the rest of the town," Snyder said. "We're losing a lot more money — we're losing our history. It's a significant property that has cultural value, and he's let that go to the point that it's got to be condemned. This town is going to die unless something happens."
Doreen Ossenkop, co-owner of the Adirondack Buffalo Company, a farm located down Blue Ridge Road from the disputed property, expressed similar sentiments.
"The first thing you see is a dilapidated structure and weeds in the building," she said. "It's a bad advertisement for the community and does nothing good for the town."
Ossenkop called the A-Frame an "albatross around the town's neck" and expressed wishes for a business that would generate revenue for the community. Newcomers, she said, would help the folks that are already here.
"I believe if the town got the property, they would do something with it," she said. "They would make sure that any business that comes in would help the town. A real businessman wouldn't let it go downhill — no good businessman would let anything they own fall apart."
Dave Tart, a retired chemistry teacher, has hunted in North Hudson since 1958 and has been a full-time resident for 14 years.
"This used to be a thriving place," he said. "It started downhill when I got here."
Tart said the recent purchase of the gas station by a Schroon Lake operator is "the start of something good" and hopes it will act as a catalyst.
"But the other buildings are all in pretty bad shape," he said. "People who are buying through these tax sales with the hopes of making a lot money. And I really do believe that George Moore fits into that category. It's deteriorating bad and starting to fall apart — just look at what he's trying to sell it for."
A website maintained by Glebus Realty lists the A-Frame property at 49.6 acres with a sales price at $549,000, down from $685,000.
Tart said towns have the right to shape development in their communities.
"We don't really have zoning laws here," he said. "If there's something bad, the town has the right to do something about it."
Ang Nolan, who also lives in North Hudson, supports the businessman because she thinks he would be in a better position to clean up the property than the town should the situation present itself.
"Who's going to clean up the asbestos if they find it in there?" she asked. "George has the equipment to do it. And I don't want my taxes to go up, either."
Tart said that while the county should have acted sooner in ensuring the property did not fall into decay, that does not negate their legal right to reject the bid, the lynchpin that both sides are using as the basis of their legal cases.
"There has to be a distinction between government use versus speculation," said Russell, citing North Hudson's proposed agreement to kick one-third of the sales proceedings over $60,000 to the county. "North Hudson is using it for speculation."
"I've heard so many complaints over the years," Ossenkop said. "This town is dying. We need to provide viable businesses so these kids don't have any choice but to move away. We have to do whatever to make sure there are jobs."

So, what will his decision be? While I have serious doubts about Howard K. Stern, (I don't really think he is the father of Anna Nicole's baby girl, and I think he did nothing to stop Anna from taking meds before, during, and after her pregnancy) I think he is in the right by saying Anna wanted to be buried in the Bahamas, where she lived, next to her son, whom she loved. I mean, she DID buy a plot beside him. So that is where she should R.I.P. Her mom, on the hand, has no say in where she should be buried... Texas? She wanted (apparantly) nothing to do with Texas, and she did not get along with her mom. From interviews with Anna Nicole, you could see her blood boiling when she talked about her mom. So I hope the judge decides to let Anna rest beside her beloved son. I will update as soon as www.TMZ.com does! So stay tuned!
UPDATE: (From www.TMZ.com)
With tears in his eyes, Judge Larry Seidlin has ruled that the disposition of Anna Nicole's body will be determined by Richard Milstein, the guardian ad litem of Dannielynn Stern in consultation with the three parties, and should go to the Bahamas, and will be with her son.
Judge to rule in a few minutes...

Solar Storm 2012: What Is A Solar Storm? [PICTURES]
A solar storm expected to hit Earth on Thursday morning was caused by a massive solar flare that occurred earlier in the week. But what exactly is a solar storm?
When the sun erupts, flares are sent hurtling towards Earth. The most recent eruption on Tuesday evening sent these flares at four million mph. According to NASA, solar flares come from the release of energy by the sun, and are intense bursts of radiation. The storms attack Earth with charged particles that react with gases in the atmosphere. When the two interact, it's possible to see a colorful aurora.
These eruptions cause havoc on Earth technology by ejecting billions of tons of plasma into space at thousands of miles per hour. The plasma holds a magnetic field from the sun which causes the disrupted technology. The magnetic fields in 1989 caused six million people in Quebec to lose power. An increase of electric current in the Earth's atmosphere called ionosphere can also wreak havoc by reflecting communication signals.
According to NASA, these storms can interfere with communications between ground stations and satellites, airplane, pilots and astronauts. This isn't a common occurrence though. When the sun is in solar maximum, or its 11-year-cycle, these solar storms are more likely to hit and disrupt technology.

He's already starred in Doctor Who and Casualty – and now 18-year-old Samuel Davies is getting ready to grace the silver screen.
The teenager's acting career began young and he secured himself an agent when aged just 11.
He already has quite the acting CV despite his age and is about to see his debut film hit the big screen.
Sam is starring along side Gavin and Stacey star Melanie Walters in a film called High Tide.
The film's release will offer a welcome distraction for Samuel as he prepares for his A-levels this summer.
High Tide covers a 24-hour period where a mother and son try to repair their fractured relationship.
It was filmed on location in Gower and will be released across the UK on March 6 but premieres at the end of this month.
In the film Bethan, played by Melanie Walters, takes her son, Josh, out of school for the day hoping to force them both to confront problems in their relationship.
Lives change forever
She takes him to the beach in the hope the open air will allow them to speak openly but revelations force him to realise their lives will change forever.
The film is a debut from the team of James Gillingham and Jimmy Hay. The duo, who are originally from Devon, fell in love with Gower while studying at Swansea University.
For Sam – who knows the natural beauty of Gower well – filming so close to his home in Uplands, Swansea, was a great perk as it meant not only could he sleep in his own bed but he was also able to enjoy home-cooked dinners at the end of a long shoot.
Acting in the blood
Sam comes from an acting family – his dad Huw is an actor, known for his role in Pobol y Cwm, and he now runs the Stagecoach drama school in Swansea along with wife Luan.
"I was always interested in the idea of acting. From a young age I used to go to set with my Dad and it just looked like an interesting thing to do," he said.
After getting the leading role in the Eisteddfod's Pasiant Y Plant he joined his parents' stage school and by the age of 11 Samuel had an agent.
He made his professional acting debut in the BBC film Framed aged 12.
Since then he has appeared in Doctor Who, Casualty, and Pen Talar and Gwaith Cartref on S4C.
He said his first film – shot when he was 16 – was another exciting milestone.
"These are people who will be going out of their way to go and watch it – not just flicking through channels," said Sam.
The film will premiere at the Taliesin Theatre in Swansea on February 27 before general release on March 6.
He said he plans to go to the premiere but won't be stopping at his local cinema.
"I don't like watching myself," he said.
Intense and extraordinary
Melanie – who played lovable Gwen in BBC sitcom smash Gavim and Stacey – is also an executive producer on the film.
She said: "When such a high-calibre script featuring a superb female lead role is being filmed on location in one of the most beautiful places in Britain and that part gets offered to you – you move heaven and earth to make it work.
"Filming High Tide was an intense, extraordinary experience and I loved working with the amazing team of people who all had the same passionate objective – to make a film that would look, sound and be moving, thoughtful and revealing.
"I am very proud to be a part of it."

The Master Your Metabolism Cookbook
Fish tacos recipes get a bad rap because usually the fish is battered, fried and served with a high calorie mayonnaise or sour cream sauce. Yuck! Instead, these mahi mahi fish tacos from Jillian Michaels' The Master Your Metabolism Cookbook are marinated in citrus juices and spices. Then the mahi mahi fish tacos are cooked in a pan on your stove top, and topped with a mango salsa. Since there's no need to fire up the grill, this mahi mahi fish taco recipe is so easy to make. It's become one of my favorite Jillian Michaels recipes.
Jillian claims that these types of healthy fish taco recipes have several nutritional benefits like being heart healthy, an immunity booster, and anti-cancer. She also claims it improves your digestion and gives you healthy skin. All I know that these mahi mahi fish tacos taste great! Now if I could only get my kids to eat them. (What is it with kids and fish?)
If you cannot find mahi mahi, tilapia is a good substitute. Tilapia fish tacos are just as lean as mahi mahi, and a little easier on the budget! I don't think Jillian Michaels would mind, though she'd probably prefer that the fish you use in your fish tacos recipe are ocean caught and not farm raised.
I'm shocked that originally there was no cilantro in this recipe, so I took the liberty of adding some for you! In The Master Your Metabolism Cookbook, Jillian Michaels writes that cilantro is a "form of natural chelation therapy, helping to detox the liver and remove heavy metals from the body." So I didn't think she'd mind. However, if you don't like cilantro, you can leave it off your Spicy Mahi Mahi and Mango Fish Tacos.
This Mama's tips for making Spicy Mahi-Mahi and Mango Fish Tacos
Tortilla Warmer - Insulated Microwave Pouch Holds Heat For 1 Hour - 12" inches
Personally I prefer corn tortillas over whole wheat. Not only do they taste better, but they're more authentically Mexican. However, Jillian Michaels wants you to avoid starchy vegetables like corn, so I completely understand why she uses whole wheat tortillas instead. If you're gluten free, use corn tortillas.
Speaking of tortillas, have you used a fabric pouch tortilla warmer for heating tortillas in the microwave? Such an awesome product! You can heat up a bunch and keep them warm in the pouch while you're making your Spicy Mahi-Mahi and Mango Fish Tacos. The tortillas stay warm and don't dry out. I have a 12" Tortilla Warmer Pouch and use it all the time! They also come in a variety of designs to match your kitchen décor. LOVE IT!!
If you can't find virgin coconut oil, use extra virgin olive oil or organic grapeseed oil instead.
Does cutting up onions make your cry. You have to get a pair of onion goggles. Trust me on this. You'll even get the kids to chop onions for you just because they'll want to wear your super cool onion goggles.

Both of these Jillian Michaels recipes are incredibly popular with my readers and get rave review, so check them out!
Spicy Mahi Mahi and Mango Tacos
- 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 3 tablespoons fresh orange juice
- 1 garlic clove, chopped
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

- In the meantime, in a medium bowl, combine the mango, onion, cilantro, chile, and remaining 1 tablespoon each lime and orange juice. Stir gently until well combined.
- Set aside in the refrigerator if you are marinating the fish longer than a few minutes. Let stand at room temperature for at least 20 minutes before serving.
- In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the fish and its marinade and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, turning frequently, until the fish is opaque.
- While the fish cooks, wrap the tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave on high power for 30 seconds.
- Gently fold the avocado into the mango mixture.

Five things for pharma marketers to know: Friday, June 17, 2016
Photo credit: Barbara Kinney for Hillary for America/Creative Commons
1. Hillary Clinton has received more money from employees of the biggest 15 pharma companies than the entire Republican field this election. Her campaign took nearly $240,000 in donations between its launch and the end of April, compared to just under $168,000 for all Republican candidates. Donald Trump received $1,700 in the same period. (Reuters)
2. Biotechnology sales representatives receive the highest pay among medical sales professionals, according to a salary survey. Pharma reps had the lowest, averaging $91,000 in base and $122,000 with bonuses included. (Pharma Phorum)
3. Valeant is investing in its Canadian operations. The drugmaker will make a $27.5 million investment in its Canadian manufacturing facilities.
4. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence recommended Bristol-Myers Squibb's combination of Opdivo and Yervoy for approval in England and Wales to treat advanced skin cancer. (PMLiVE)

Republic of Ireland Under-21 2 Hungary Under-21 1
Rhys Murphy marked his first Republic of Ireland Under-21 cap with the winning goal against Hungary in tonight's 2013 UEFA Under-21 Championship Group Seven qualifier at the Showgrounds in Sligo.
Robbie Brady fired Ireland into an early lead before Markó Futács levelled but Murphy claimed the points in front with a 69th minute winner in from of a sell-out 2,500 crowd.
Just like his last outing in Sligo three weeks ago, when his late brace secured victory over Austria victory in a friendly, Brady was once again to the fore.
He turned his marker Daniel Svab inside out on four minutes only to see his shot blocked but was more accurate eleven minutes later.
Full-back Mark Connolly and Adam Barton were involved in the build-up down the right wing but it was Brady's turn of pace in skipping past two defenders which caught goalkeeper Peter Gulasci off-guard as winger's low 20-yard screamer flew inside the Hungary goalkeeper's near post.
Brady continued to turn on the style as he set up Aidan White to drill a good wide on 19 minutes.
Within sixty seconds it got too much for Svab, whose cynical challenge on his nemesis earned him the first booking of the game from Belgian referee Sébastien Delferiere.
King's side continued to probe and wasted a number of openings, with Gavin Gunning's wayward close-range header the pick of them.
Hungary sensed an opening and capitalised with the equaliser.
András Gosztonyi's pass found Ádám Bódi charging down the right and his low cross was swept home by Futács.
Ireland could have been back in front a minute when Barton controlled Connolly's cross and forced Gulasci to tip his effort his effort onto the crossbar.
Following a scrappy start to the second half, Ireland took control and might have had a penalty when McCarthy was brought down but no whistle came.
Still, McCarthy was in the right place to play a part in Ireland's winner. Controlling a half-cleared corner, his lay-off to Brady resulted in the winger finding Rhys Murphy unmarked in the box to head downwards home from eight yards.
Hungary were reduced to ten men eight minutes from time when Bence Iszlai saw red for a late challenge on Aidan White en route to the box.
The Under-21s now head to Turkey on Saturday for the second part of the double-header is in Manisa.
REPUBLIC OF IRELAND: McLoughlin (MK Dons); Connolly (Bolton Wanderers), Canavan (Scunthorpe), Kiernan (Wigan Athletic), Gunning (Dundee United); Towell (Hibernian), Barton (Preston NE), McCarthy (Wigan Athletic); Brady (Manchester United), Murphy (Arsenal), White (Leeds United).
HUNGARY: Gulácsi; Svab, Kálnoki-Kis, Fodor, Szokol; Balázs, Kiss, Iszlai, Bódi; Futács, Gosztonyi.
Subs: Nagy for Futács (79 mins), Gyurcsó for Balázs (81 mins), Hidi for Bodi (90 mins)
REFEREE: Sébastien Delferiere (BEL).

U.S. Representative David Wu, a Democrat from the northwestern state of Oregon, has resigned over a sex scandal - becoming the third House member this year to step down because of controversy.
Wu submitted his resignation to the Oregon state governor and the speaker of the House, John Boehner, late Wednesday.
In a statement, he said serving in Congress had been the greatest honor of his life. He did not mention the scandal.
A newspaper in his home state reported that an 18-year-old woman said she had an unwanted sexual encounter with the 56-year-old lawmaker. The Oregonian quoted Wu as saying the encounter was consensual.
Wu announced last week that he would resign from office after Congress passed the debt-ceiling bill. President Obama signed the legislation into law Tuesday.
Two other House members - Democrat Anthony Weiner and Republican Chris Lee - have resigned in recent months over scandals involving suggestive photographs that were made public.
Some information for this report was provided by AP, AFP and Reuters.

Cakes by Candace drives away with first place at Cakewalk fundraiser
Second runner up at the event, held at the Westin Hotel, was a cake by Cheryl's Creations. Sponsored by Bridal House, a wedding clothing store, the cake was created by Cheryl Klapstein to reflect the sentiments of that famous processional tune, Mendelssohn's Wedding March. It was a traditional approach and expertly executed in red and white, with a bride and groom heading up the aisle to the altar. Even the fondant icing had a classic feel, looking very much like velvet.
First runner up was crafted by The Art of Cake and built around the musical theme of Get Me to the Church on Time. Pacesetter Homes was the sponsor for that cake. Gloria Bednarz and Guenter Hess, heavyweight contenders, worked a clock into the design. The roses scattered about the cake looked so real, I felt compelled to lean over and smell them.
The winning confection (top photo) was made by Cakes by Candace, and was sponsored by Lexus. Daintier than many of the other nine contestants, this cake proved that big isn't necessarily better. The fondant on the cake was tufted to mimic a pillowy satin finish, the flowers gathered around its top looked good enough to eat. Perhaps the most playful element of the display was the way it was paired with a romantic song. Cakes by Candace riffed off that Sonny and Cher hit of the 1970s, I Got You Babe. Bakers Candace Ramjohn and Betty Friesen also managed to garner extra points by including the sponsor, Lexus, in the design. A miniature white Lexus was snuggled up right next to the winning cake.
Congratulations to all the contestants.

The Michael Matters Foundation exists to help families manage incidental costs while they are focused on treatment and care. This support can help with pre-existing needs that the patient or family is suddenly challenged to meet due to their illness, or to help offset many of the numerous costs that may arise (such as parking, travel and meals) that can accompany the patient experience. Our goal is to allow families to better focus on their care by easing their financial pressures.
Our vision is to become the leading provider of incidental financial support to primary brain cancer patients and families receiving care for this devastating disease. Already underway with several leading health systems, our goal is to grow our support base and expand our support to patients and their families, while collaborating with the medical providers that help provide their care.
Beginning in 2014, The Michael Matters Foundation partnered with NorthShore University HealthSystems to create a grant providing financial assistance to primary brain cancer patients receiving care in Evanston, IL. In 2015, we created a similar partnership with Northwestern Medicine Chicago Proton Center at Central DuPage Hospital, located in Warrenville, Illinois. In 2016, we added Advocate Lutheran General Hospital and Lurie Children's Hospital as partners. Most recently in 2017, we added University of Illinois (Chicago) Hospital as our newest partner.
Our grants are designed to help patients maintain their quality of life during their treatment. To date, more than $200,000.00 has been donated to these Michael Matters Grants, and more than 130 families have been positively impacted by these funds.
Your donations make a direct and significant impact to patients in need.
Thank You – 2017 New Year, Same Wish Success!
2018 "New Year, Same Wish" Fundraiser was a huge success, raising $110,000! Held at Viper Alley in Lincolnshire, NYSW raised more money than ever before.

Ben & Jerry's - free cone day 2018
Our dear friends at Ben & Jerry's in Glenview hosted their annual "Free Cone Day" charity event to raise money for the Michael Matters Foundation. Now in its 4th year, the event raised $1,000.00 to support The Michael Matters Foundation patient grant program! A special thanks to the wonderful owners of Ben & Jerry's at The Glen Town Center, and Allstate Insurance who provided the volunteers for this special day.
Your Support Matters
Offering hope to those in need
During Michael's treatment, he frequently expressed his sadness for those stricken with the same disease, but who were unable to receive certain life-extending medications or even cover important secondary expenses—like transportation to treatment, hotel stays, food and childcare—due to financial restraints caused by their disease.
Michael passionately believed everyone should be able to maintain a high quality of life throughout the treatment process. We hope to make his wish a reality.

NBA 2K12 Gets A Game Of The Year Edition, $49.99 Too Much?
2K Sports today has just announced the NBA 2K12: Game of the Year Edition will be available on March 11, 2012 for $49.99 for the PS3 and Xbox 360. For a limited time, the package will be available exclusively at Best Buy stores nationwide. It includes a full retail version of NBA 2K12, the previously released Legend's Showcase add-on content and a commemorative poster featuring Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird. Honestly, with all the issues the game has had with My Player mode and the more recent freezing issue I would have really liked to see this come in about $10, that would have been a compelling price point. At this point, the other recently announced MLB 2K12/NBA 2K12 combo pack (if you are an Xbox 360 player) is probably a better value, the Legends Showcase isn't that great.

View the Program
Symposium Goals and Objectives
The Inaugural Symposium on Experiential Education in Law represents a transformational moment in the development of law school curriculum. The Symposium provides a forum for creative and innovative thinking and planning to reimagine the relationship between experiential learning and other pedagogies in order to ensure that law graduates are ready to practice with a full complement of skills and ethical and social values necessary to serve clients and the public interest, now and in the future. The Symposium will engage constituencies in the legal academy and profession to initiate new approaches and programs for curriculum reform and to change the way in which law students are educated in order to address the shared complex challenges of the 21st century. Specifically, the Symposium will encourage attendees to identify key attributes underlying the advantages in preparing law students for careers in the law that are associated with experiential learning while developing methods by which these curricular innovations can be implemented.
The Symposium invites members of the Alliance for Experiential Learning in Law, as well as others who are broadly representative of the profession and academy, to participate in the Symposium. In this way, the Symposium can encourage creative thinking from multiple perspectives and develop innovative solutions from those most affected by the transformation underway in the legal academy and profession. From this shared understanding and common approach will come work plans that can form the basis for strategic planning and approaches that will lead to positive implementation that will ensure future relevance for legal education and the profession. Northeastern University School of Law, the Alliance for Experiential Learning in Law and the Northeastern University Law Journal invite you to join us in contributing to this transformational moment in legal education.

Like most of the coolest things in the universe, San Diego Comic Con is now kind of lame. The mission statement of the convention, to promote and share a sub-stratum of pop culture amongst its hardcore fans, eventually devolved into an engorged hub of industry promotion, in which studio giants take up more and more of the convention space, shoving "smaller" creators further and further into the corners, to the extent where comic book enthusiasts sometimes feel shunned by the very event designed to embrace them. And then of course there's the massive overcrowding, the cramped scheduling, and the often-shoddy internet access that makes covering the event – as we journalists must – an occasional nightmare. I think it's safe to say that I had grown to hate Comic Con over the last few years. And I think it's the biggest compliment of all to say that Morgan Spurlock's documentary, Comic Con Episode IV: A Fan's Hope, made me fall in love with Comic Con all over again.
First, a word about Morgan Spurlock. After taking the documentary community by storm with 2004's Supersize Me, which dared to suggest that eating nothing but McDonald's for weeks would be unhealthy, he settled into a career of investigative docs that examined and actively challenged accepted public beliefs. Was Osama Bin Laden really that hard to find? Watch Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden, and so on. I expected Spurlock's Comic Con documentary to assume the same investigative reporting vibe, perhaps uncovering the seedy underbelly behind the event's gradual corporate takeover. It would have been a perfectly viable take on the material. But instead, Spurlock has taken such a conventional route that, for Spurlock at any rate, it feels almost revolutionary. He can make a "real" documentary, all right, staying out of the camera's field of vision entirely and simply focusing on a microcosm of a greater community, with well-selected subjects with tangible goals to focus on.
Comic Con Episode IV: A Fan's Hope follows the exploits of a half dozen individuals trekking to San Diego in pursuit of their dreams. Not all dreams are created equal: one guy just wants an exclusive Galactus figure, dashes across the convention floor on the opening day, and buys it. His story is, amusingly, already over, leaving Spurlock to focus on characters like Holly Conrad, an overachieving amateur costume designer who hopes to parlay her animatronic Mass Effect costumes into a career, and Skip Harvey, a wide-eyed geek with a portfolio of pencilings looking to be discovered by a major publisher. The heart and soul of Comic Con Episode IV are James Darling and his girlfriend Se Young Kang, who has no idea that he's brought her to the convention – where they first met – to propose to her in Hall H. The problem is that she wants to spend all her time with James, who desperately needs a few minutes to himself in order to pick up the engagement ring. It plays like a real-life Danny Kaye routine, and ends in such a spectacularly dramatic and satisfying fashion that it couldn't possibly have been scripted.
The common thread amongst the characters Spurlock has discovered for Comic Con Episode IV is, at the horrible risk of being trite, love. These wonderful people are trying to fulfill their occasionally meager dreams for no particular reason beyond their own desperate passions, and I've seen strains of herpes that were less infectious. Comic Con Episode IV is that rare documentary that plays to the converted and uninitiated alike. For those who've never been, or simply can't get tickets now that the event has turned into a genuine phenomenon, it's an earnest examination of what makes Comic Con so special. For those who have lost their love for the event, for one reason or another, it's a heartfelt reminder of just how meaningful Comic Con can be. And if you just plain love it and go every year, it's a real life Where's Waldo, encouraging you to scour the film for your likeness in the crowds. (You can find me on the escalator in front of "The Collector," incidentally.)
