According to artist Brad Walker, the Aquaman Rebirth series very nearly drew inspiration from Jason Momoa's interpretation of the character from Justice League.
RELATED: Aquaman's Comic Is Basically Subtweeting Trump's Presidency
When Walker helped to launch the current series alongside writer Dan Abnett, he created designs for Arthur Curry that combined the traditional color scheme of Aquaman with Momoa's more warrior-like depictionThe proposed tribal tattoos and intricate battle armor resulted in a design that looks rather similar to the character's look in the 1990s.
Don't think I ever posted these. Early round of #aquaman designs when we thought we would need to lean into the movie look. Ended up going more classic though, which I probably like better, anyway. pic.twitter.com/Rwv8DRIxDP— Brad Brad Walker (@IAmBradWalker) November 8, 2017
While DC ultimately decided to go with a more traditional depiction of Aquaman, things took a turn following issue #25 of Aquaman. Cast out as King of Atlantis, Arthur now resembles Walker's original designs more closely, though it's currently artist Stjepan Šejić who is providing the series' interior artwork.

WATERVILLE, Maine - The Norwich men's basketball team picked up their first victory of the 2018-19 season in impressive fashion on Saturday afternoon, outscoring Thomas College 35-15 in the second half to roll to a 79-47 victory.
The cold shooting that plagued Norwich in their season opener was quickly proven to not be a habit, as the Cadets opened the game on a 17-6 run going 7-9 from the field during the run. Heading into the half, the Cadets had already built a 44-32 lead over the Thomas Terriers.
Norwich's defense locked down any offensive effort from Thomas in the second half, holding their opponent to an 18.5% mark from the field, including a 1-11 effort from three. The Cadets outscored Thomas 35-15 to run away with the 79-47 victory and even their record at 1-1 for the year.
Kyle Booth (Northfield, Vt.) led the way for Norwich with a career-high 23 points and six rebounds, shooting a blistering 80% from behind the three-point line. Christopher Bryant (Crestview, Fla.) put up his first double-double of the season, totaling 13 points and 13 rebounds, as the Cadets put together a 45.9% effort from the field as a team.
The Cadets will stay on the road for the next tilt, traveling to Plymouth State for a Tuesday night matchup with the Panthers at 6:00 PM. After that, they'll return to Northfield for their home opener, hosting Lesley University on November 17th at 1:00 PM.

Capturing moments
If photographer and Instagram success, Daniel Taipale, actually had time to spare in his busy jet-setting life he could work part time as a guide to Lofoten. He has visited this stunning region of Norway "25-30 times". This makes him something of an expert. But he doesn't have time to spare. He's working flat out travelling to some of the world's most spectacular destinations with 15kgs of camera gear in tow.
Daniel has come a long way from his former small-town Finland life. After a round-the-world trip in his early twenties and seasons working as a snowboard instructor in Japan, he now has an Instagram following of close to 200,000.
Yeah it's pretty crazy but it's taken a lot of hard work, though I know I'm living a super privileged life.
Daniel Taipale
Inspired by his dad's analogue travel photography, filling photo albums on living room shelves a young Daniel and his brother, Samuel, saved up all their summer-job money to buy their first digital SLR camera. "It was one of the first DSLRs and it was super expensive. But we loved it. We were out all the time, shooting everything from trees to cityscapes."
A few years later Instagram came on the scene. Back in the early days of the now ubiquitous photo-sharing app you could only shoot with your phone. This added an element of spontaneity and simplicity that Daniel liked. There were just a few filters to choose from then, so images were more 'honest'.
In the beginning Instagram was about the things that happened then and there. It was purer in some way. It was more like analogue photography, or street photography – you either get the shot or you don't get the shot. You have that one chance and you can't fake it. I loved that!
As Instagram's global presence grew, so did Daniel's. But rather than choose to follow a path of ever-more editing, he wanted to keep things simple and honest. He switched back to his digital camera, mostly because it offered better image quality, but continued to shoot the same bombastic nature images he'd been shooting with his phone, with minimal editing.
His style shaped and formed. His images had, and still have, 'a look' that you can say is Daniel Taipale's. "I like moody shots, kind of dark, that have an analogue look to them. It's funny because I get invited to lots of warm, sunny beachy places but I usually turn those trips down. I need grey, rainy, snowy and cold places that suit my style. I don't know why I like that look so much, I'm just drawn to it in some way."
When we spoke to him he's just arrived home from a trip to the Faroe Islands. "They were beautiful but I don't know if I'll share many shots from there. It was too sunny."
In fact, according to Daniel, maybe 80% of the time his trips are unsuccessful. It doesn't help that his modus operandi takes him to weather-beaten locations where sunny days are usually in short supply, like Lofoten.
I love Lofoten, it's my favourite place to travel to. And it's really, really beautiful. I know it well now as I've been there 25 to 30 times. But the weather can be tricky. And although most people think this work is easy, a lot of the time I come back from a trip without any usable images. I've been to Lofoten in the middle of the winter; it's cold, I've been sleeping in the back of my car. I've hiked hours, reached a peak and it's been cloudy so I can't get any photos. That's pretty tough. But when it's good, this job is amazing. I'm really lucky. I know that.
He's clearly dedicated to his art. And puts a huge amount of time and effort into finding the angle. Telling the story. Generally shooting with people in the image, to give it a here and now kind of feeling. We've been working with him for a year or so and love how he just makes you want to get outside. He captures the greater 'presence' of nature, that unknown element that draws us to wild places. He's perhaps so adept at capturing this feeling because of his own adoration of nature.
Growing up in Finland, deep, dark immense swaths of forest were on his doorstep. They were – and still are – his places to escape. "After just 15 minutes in nature, for whatever reason you've taken yourself to the forest whether photography or running, you feel better. You forget busy life that can take over. It's definitely a place for me to go and relax. It's alone time too. It has some effect that I can't explain. It's a special place. I spend a lot of time in nature here in Finland. Not usually to take photos. Often just to enjoy moments outdoors."
This notion of 'moments' he talks about is something that resonates with us at Fjällräven. Sometimes a lot of emphasis is placed on the importance of getting outside for days on end, on technical expeditions into the mountains. But this isn't really what we mean. It's more about the small moments, those quick escapes on a Friday evening, a Tuesday lunchtime, a Sunday afternoon that have the biggest impact. Because these you can repeat and enjoy in your way.
My best photos and memories are often of those small moments, like hanging out by the fire or in the forest. They're maybe not the most photogenic photos, but those moments are really special.
Seeing as Daniel is such an expert on Lofoten, we asked him to share some tips. Here are three of the best:
- My favourite camping spot has always been a beach called Kvalvika. It's gotten very popular the last few years, but you can still end up staying on the beach on your own enjoying the sunset. From the beach you can hike up to a peak called Ryten. This gives you an amazing view towards Kvalvika beach and the sea. This location is usually best for sunsets.
- Lofoten is full of amazing hikes, but Storrnappstinden is, for some reason, my favourite. This hike takes around 1h30min to get up and see the amazing 360° view. It's a pretty steep hike, but definitely worth the effort.
- I like combining a camping spot and a nice hike and there are plenty of awesome places for that in Lofoten. One fairly easy combo is camping at Uttakleiv beach and hiking up the fairly easy Mannen peak or a little more challenging and longer Himmeltindan. Both of these hikes can be started from the parking area at Uttakleiv beach.

Dust off your party equipment. Start stocking the bar. Call—or text—your pals: It's Party Season, the perfect time of year to show off your well-honed hosting skills and bring all your favorite people together.
A key tenet of the bartender's code? Treat each bar patron as you would treat a guest in your home.
A Seattle-based bartending duo takes this creed seriously. Anu Apte, owner of Belltown's Rob Roy and Chris Elford, member of the Bon Vivants and bartender at Canon, know that small details borrowed from a professional setting conjure the same hospitality guests crave at a friend's home.
Heed the pair's industry tips for a friendly fall cocktail party—antique teacups and pumpkin punch bowl included. The downside: Your guests may never want to leave.
- Antique teacups are truly versatile drinking vessels. They're elegant and equally perfect for serving chilled punch or hot drinks. Plus, you can find them on the cheap on eBay.
- The same goes for glassware: Elford and Apte often find filigreed mixing glasses online for under 20 bucks by searching the term "martini pitcher" instead of "mixing glass."
- Invest in a home soda maker—now. With the power of cost-effective carbonation at your fingertips, you can craft endless varieties of highballs or small-scale punches.
- No one has time to hand-cut cocktail ice at home. The easy alternative? King cube silicone ice trays. Keep your oversized cubes in top form by quarantining them in a freezer bag to avoid serving ice that tastes like the ghosts of TV dinners past.
- Want to serve Thanksgiving in a glass? Apte uses an inspired technique to capture the holiday essence in her cocktails. She extracts and clarifies the juice from squash or pumpkins and pairs the flavorful liquid with bourbon, allspice dram and other warm spices.
- Keep your fridge stocked with simple syrup. A cinnamon-infused or tea-laced syrup—made with leftover pumpkin- or fall-spiced tea bags—makes it easy to throw together a fancy Old Fashioned at a moment's notice.
- Tiki drinks are usually associated with sweltering summer, but Elford believes they're a prime fit for Thanksgiving as well. Their island spices, like cinnamon, clove and allspice, all overlap with fall flavors. Elford's favorite example (and ideal Thanksgiving drink): The Lion's Tail, a variation on the Whiskey Sour that swaps in lime juice and allspice dram as the sweetener.
- Always keep a reserve of sparkling cider or wine. Even the inexpensive kinds can stretch cocktails or punches—and they never go bad. Elford and Apte use the trusty bubbles to finish their Tomahawk Punch, a heady blend of bourbon, ancho chile liqueur and honey syrup that's served in a hollowed-out pumpkin.
- Punch was originally invented to make poor-quality liquor potable. So if you can't buy all top-shelf spirits, aim to use high-proof products when you can and balance them with bubbles. If a punch recipe isn't jiving flavor-wise, Elford always advises taking one ingredient away, rather than adding another to the mix.
- Bonus party trick: The secret bartender tip for getting wine stains out? Elford carries a Tide To-Go stick in his bar kit in case of emergency clothing or carpet spills. Being prepared is, after all, a major part of being hospitable, both at home and behind the bar.

|"STING, the Sensing of Cytosolic DNA and Innate Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Disease."GCOE Program Seminar(Global Education Seminar)
Autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) affect millions worldwide, the cause of which remains unknown. SLE and diseases such as Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome (AGS) are characterized by the overproduction of cytokines such as type I interferon (IFN) suggesting that stimulation of host innate immune responses, speculatively by chronic infection or self nucleic acids, play a role in the manifestation of these diseases. Mice lacking DNAse II die during embryonic development through comparable autoimmune disease since phagocytosed DNA from apoptotic cells cannot be adequately digested and intracellular host DNA sensors are activated resulting in the production of a variety of cytokines including type I IFN. The cellular sensor responsible for triggering DNA-mediated inflammation aggravated autoimmune disease remains to be determined. However, we report here that STING (Stimulator of Interferon Genes) complexes with phagocytosed undigested DNA and controls innate immune signaling events that facilitate such events. DNase II-dependent autoimmune embryonic lethality was rescued by loss of STING function and polyarthritis completely prevented since cytosolic DNA failed to robustly trigger cytokine production through STING controlled signaling pathways. Accordingly, loss of STING expression similarly alleviated Trex1-dependent lethal inflammatory myocarditis in mice, a model for AGS, speculatively caused by endogenous self DNA. Our data provides molecular insight into the causes of DNA-mediated inflammation-dependent autoimmune disorders and affords a new target that could plausibly be therapeutically controlled, to help prevent such diseases.

The leaders of Russia, France, the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, the United States, Canada and Japan are discussing the fight against infectious diseases, as well as energy security and education, at their current three-day meeting outside St. Petersburg.
On day two of the meeting, the G8 leaders adopted a joint statement on HIV/AIDS, avian influenza, tuberculosis, malaria and other deadly diseases that undermine "global development and the well-being of the world's population."
They highlighted the importance of "a vigorous response to the threat of infectious diseases," the main cause of deaths throughout the world, but particularly in developing countries, where the vast majority suffers from poverty and malnutrition and where medical treatment remains out of reach for many.
The G8 action plan to curb major infectious diseases covers international cooperation in surveillance and monitoring, intensifying scientific research and public awareness campaigns, and providing technical assistance and training to improve access to prevention and treatment for those in need. It also focuses on support for international organizations working to mitigate health consequences of emergencies and on promotion of efforts to increase worldwide production capacities for vaccines and antiviral drugs.
The leaders of the world's richest nations said efforts against HIV would remain a top priority. They reiterated their commitment to containing the spread of the virus that causes AIDS, as called for in the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), and to providing universal access to comprehensive prevention programs, treatment, care and support by 2010.
They welcomed a Russian proposal to establish a regional coordination mechanism to promote HIV vaccine development in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, and pledged support for the development of innovative methods of prevention, such as microbicides.
The G8 leaders also said they would work to contain outbreaks of the pathogenic H5N1 bird flu virus in animals and to prevent a human influenza pandemic through global crisis management centers and international rapid response teams.
They called upon international donors to scale up contributions to efforts against infectious diseases in the third world, particularly polio and malaria. And they urged national governments "to enable developing countries without manufacturing capacity in the pharmaceutical sector to import medicines they need" and "to consider eliminating import tariffs and non-tariff barriers on medicines and medical devices to reduce further the cost of healthcare for the poor, and expand their access to effective treatments."
The G8 statement also spotlighted the destructive impact of natural disasters and industrial accidents, outlining the need for strengthened early warning systems, and prompt and coordinated relief efforts.

Men's soccer advanced to the NCAA Division II Final Four and will compete against the University of Charleston this Thursday in Kansas City, Missouri.
This will mark the second time in three years that the Broncos reached the Final Four.
The Broncos relied on the experience of seniors that played in the Final Four two years ago.
"I feel like we've been able to keep the energy up high and try to keep the team as united as we can in games," senior midfielder Kevin Martinez said.
The University of Charleston will play in its fourth consecutive Final Four, and have lost one game this season.
Senior forward Will Roberts leads the offensive attack for the Golden Eagles, tallying 11 goals and five assists this season.
Charleston's defense is one of the stingiest in the nation, allowing only eight goals in 22 games including the playoffs.
"We are going to have a really tough game on Thursday and we just have to take it one day at a time," senior defender Nadeer Ghantous said.
The Broncos' offense will try to overcome the Golden Eagles' defense.
CPP's offense is led by one of the best strikers in the nation, senior forward Sergi Monso, who has scored 21 goals and notched 11 assists in 23 games.
The Broncos averaged 2.39 goals a game this season so taking away Monso will not be enough to shut down the Broncos' offense.
Each team will prepare in different ways, but the one thing both teams will do, is rest.
"I think the most important thing is the recovery," acting head coach Adam Reeves said. "For us, we have played four really tough games over the past two weekends."
The Broncos grinded throughout the entire tournament as they faced Simon Fraser and Point Loma to start off narrowly escaping with victories in both games 2-1 and 1-0.
The next game proved to be more difficult as they faced an undefeated Cal Baptist team for the West Region Championship.
The back line for the Broncos stepped up to the challenge and shut down the Lancers' offense leaving with a 1-0 victory.
Difficulties increased in the quarterfinal as CPP squared off against ranked No. 1 Midwestern State.
The Broncos battled all game answering every goal Midwestern State scored with one of their own.
In the end, the game went to penalty kicks and the Broncos seized the opportunity, winning 6-5.
Twelve days will have passed from the emotional victory against Midwestern State to when the Broncos play Charleston.
Whoever comes out on top, will move on to the Division II NCAA Championship game on Dec. 2.
CPP reached the National Championship game two years ago losing 4-0 to Pfeiffer.

Brave widow of film director mauled to death by great white shark returns to scene of attack at New Zealand beach with their daughter
- Adam Strange, 46, attacked at Muriwai beach near Auckland
- Shark up to 14ft long pulled him under the water on Wednesday
- More sharks drawn to the attack as police fired shots in rescue attempt
- Widow attended re-opening of beach with the couple's daughter
- Mr Strange's funeral will be held at Muriwai beach today
Clutching her young daughter in her arms, the widow of a film director mauled to death by a great white shark stands on the same beach where, days before, her husband was dragged beneath the waves as he swam off the shore.
Adam Strange, 46, was attacked by the enormous shark off New Zealand's Muriwai beach last Wednesday.
His wife Meg returned to the scene of the horror attack north of Auckland with the couple's daughter, Indigo. Muriwai had been closed to swimmers in the wake of the tragedy, but re-opened at the weekend.
Bereaved: Megan Strange brought her daughter to the reopening of Muriwai Beach, days after her husband was attacked by a shark off the shore
A funeral service for Mr Strange, 46, will take place today at the beach, which is close to the family's home. Up to 1,000 people are expected to attend the service.
Muriwai Lifeguard Service chair Tim Jago told the New Zealand Herald the ceremony would be 'upbeat' and 'quirky'.
'As Adam is taken out of Muriwai for one last time, I think there is going to be a fairly entertaining, theatrical departure for him,' he said.
Lifeguards and police had battled in vain to save Mr Strange when he was targeted by the great white shark as he swam just 200 yards from the shore on Wednesday afternoon.
Mr Strange had waved and called for help as the creature dragged him underwater to the horror of witnesses on Muriwai.
Police fired 20 shots at the killer shark in a desperate rescue attempt.
Up to four other sharks, attracted by blood in the water, are understood to have joined in the attack, which occurred at around 1.30pm.
Final goodbyes: The day after the attack Mrs Strange was comforted by a friend at the beach, where her husband's funeral will take place today
The father of one lived locally and was known to the traumatised young lifeguards who joined the fight to save him.
'Glorious': Mr Strange was attacked as he swam off Muriwai beach on Wednesday afternoon
Pio Mose was in a group fishing on rocks near the beach when he saw a 'huge' shark attack the lone swimmer 50 yards from where he was standing.
'All of a sudden we saw the shark fin and next minute, boom, attack him and then blood everywhere on the water,' said Mr Mose in the wake of the tragedy.
He said Mr Strange had appeared to struggle with the shark before it swam away – and then it, and others, came back.
Mr Mose called the police on his mobile while a friend ran for help.
He said: 'He was still alive. He put his head up. We called him to swim over the rock to where we were.
'He raised his hand up and then while he was raising his hand we saw another attack pull him in.'
Mr Mose said that as blood filled the water, three or four more sharks arrived. The fishermen were forced to watch as the shark carried the man's body out to sea.
'It's awful – like a nightmare. I was shaking, scared, panicked.'

At least three sharks are believed to have been involved in the attack
Mr Mose, who said he had never seen sharks before despite fishing in the area for three years, added: 'All I was thinking was I wanted to jump in the water and help, but I didn't want to get attacked, too.'
Police rushed to the scene and officers in a helicopter guided another on board a rubber boat to where the 12ft to 14ft shark was swimming near the victim.
He then fired around 20 shots into the water, witnesses said. It was unclear if the shark had been killed. Inspector Shawn Rutene said he could not confirm whether the shark that was shot, and which 'rolled away' as a result, was involved in the initial attack.
Predator: It is thought Mr Strange was attacked by a great white shark
He refused to say if it was attacking Mr Strange at the time. Police took 30 more minutes to retrieve his body.
Adventure lover Mr Strange had worked all over the world, according to his website. His short film Aphrodite's Farm was in ten major festivals and last year won the Crystal Bear award for best short film at the Berlin Film Festival.
He had also been a finalist at the London International Awards.
His family, some of whom live overseas, said in a statement Mr Strange was a 'glorious' person, a 'great father, husband and friend.'
The New Zealand Herald said Wednesday's fatal shark attack may have brought Auckland's swimming season to an abrupt end, with attendance down at Muriwai and other beaches in the upper North Island over the weekend.
Grief: There were emotional scenes at Muriwai Surf Lifesaving Club after the fatal attack
Volunteer lifeguard service chairman Tony Jago said the victim's family was 'very upset', left, after police spoke to media about the attack, right
Scene: Muriwai beach was closed in the wake of the attack on Wednesday

Having encountered Michael Wolff and having had an acidulous public exchange with him, I attest that he is an utterly odious man. He can't write properly, has no professional integrity, and is a sociophobic mudslinger and myth maker.
His entry into the continuing Trump controversy in its twilight proclaims that we have reached the era of the swiftly evaporating, nausea-inducing nothingburger. And yet, in what will surely prove the one civically useful thing Wolff will have done in his adult life, he has performed almost the final evisceration of the throbbing pustule of deranged Trumpophobia.
His book is so overtly and egregiously false, so completely worthless as an account of what is happening in the White House, the respectable elements of Trumpophobia are finally taking to the lifeboats. They can no longer do boat drill with, and wear the same uniform as, the psychotics, the displaced crooks and decayed servitors of Clintonia, and the violent riff-raff of the extreme left and right.
Attempting to mind-read Michael Wolff is a task for a rare specialist of psycho-zoology, a field where I have no standing, but I suspect he thought he could play a role in administering a death blow to the Trump administration. Instead he has produced a work of such filth that he delighted and exploited the politically insane elements of anti-Trumpism, picking their pockets while leading them into the no-go zone of claiming the president is an idiot, a lunatic, and a belligerent menace.
Instead of taking the headship of an accelerating Dump Trump movement, Wolff shamed the sane opponents of Trump into separating from the bloodless assassins, the Carl Bernsteins and Maxine Waterses, and into beginning to reconstitute themselves as a loyal opposition. The initial enthusiasm for the Wolff demonography, replete with polite references to Steve Bannon, formerly represented as the puppet-master of the Trump dunciad, gave way to cooler heads recognizing that the game was up.
David Brooks, a civilized and erudite commentator in The New York Times, led the way out of the inferno for the conservative anti-Trump intelligentsia. He is far from the grace of conversion, but Mr. Brooks wrote, "The anti-Trump movement, of which I'm a proud member, seems to be getting dumber. It seems to be settling into a smug fairy tale version of reality that filters out discordant information. "More anti-Trumpers seem to be telling themselves a 'Madness of King George' narrative: Trump is a semi-literate madman surrounded by sycophants who are morally, intellectually and psychologically inferior to people like us. I'd like to think it's possible to be fervently anti-Trump while also not reducing everything to a fairy tale."
Bingo! Mr. Brooks is on the up escalator. When he has a little altitude, he will recognize that what he has left behind him is not a fairy tale but a fictional horror story.
Trump has mannerisms and foibles legitimately unattractive to many. That is certainly adequate reason to disapprove of him — if there is a better alternative. There isn't. And as Mr. Brooks and kindred spirits, including another old friend with whom I have parted company on this subject but retained cordial relations, Bret Stephens, now also of The New York Times, acknowledges, what this president has done is actually quite good, and a vast improvement on his post-Reagan predecessors.
Wolff had his three days of national prominence, like so many other Trumpophobes who have had cameo roles, from Khizr Khan to Gloria Allred, but the anti-Trump coalition fragmented. Alan Dershowitz, a Clinton voter in the last election, warned that the effort to escalate perfervid Trumpophobia from criminalization of policy differences (as well as sour grapes over the lost election) to "psychiatrization" was even more sinister and anti-democratic.
The leftist media had a few vocal psychiatrists whom they have been trotting out from time to time to claim Trump is mad, and in the last few days they swanned through parts of the lockstep circuit of CNN-MSNBC-CBS-ABC-NBC (which briefly declared itself in favor of Oprah Winfrey for president on Jan. 8, before retracting).
But then, as is his habit, the president sortied out of what David Brooks calls the "Potemkin White House" and dealt his enemies a shattering rebuff. He had the cameras present in the cabinet room for almost an hour as he led, rather magisterially, as all admitted, a discussion of immigration issues with 22 Democratic and Republican leaders of both congressional houses, and sat himself next to leading Democrats, Sen. Richard Durbin, D-Ill. and Rep. Steny Hoyer, D-Md.
The country saw that Donald Trump is reasonable, persuasive, and knowledgeable. To prove to skeptics that miracles occur, CNN's ne plus ultra of fake-news authorship, Wolf Blitzer, uttered words of respectful admiration for the president. On a higher plane, relatively pro-Trump commentator Mollie Hemingway wrote in the Federalist, on Jan. 8, that the effort to portray Trump as mentally unbalanced and stupid and incompetent was an attempted "coup."
That's exactly what it is. Bernstein especially, after coasting for 45 years on his co-assassination of Richard Nixon, who, despite his amply publicized shortcomings, was one of the most successful presidents in the country's history, richly deserves a severe comeuppance. His emergence from the catacombs of leftist mythology as he padded around the usually suspect television studios and the overpaid after-dinner circuit, dilating with well-rehearsed earnestness on the "constitutional crisis," should at least require that his mouth be publicly washed out with soap.
For those unversed in the pathology of the over-bemedalled Watergate veterans, Bernstein means by his conjured constitutional crisis the 25th Amendment, which in the event of a severe medical incapacity, permits the combination of the vice president, the majority of the cabinet, and two-thirds of both houses of Congress to suspend the president.
That he believes there is any chance of the 25th Amendment's being taken seriously on the existing facts shows that he (and not the president) is mad.
It is to this pitiful, water-filled, rat-infested trench of last defense that the stragglers and quasi-deserters of the Trumpophobic flat-earth resistance have retreated, and the buglers urging them forward into no-man's land against the Trump machine guns are the two most fraudulent scoundrels in all of the American information industry: Carl Bernstein and Michael Wolff.
The nasty little secret, singing joyously above the battlefield like a lark, is that Donald Trump is a very capable president, and has had the best first year of any president since Nixon, if not Eisenhower, or even FDR.
To appreciate what has happened, a little perspective is needed: Trump's candidacy was a joke; then he was unelectable, then his election could be invalidated, then he could be impeached, and then he could be removed for past harassment of women, or violating the Logan Act, or obstruction of justice, and now mental incapacity.
Donald Trump is a strange cat and an acquired taste, but he is one of the most vivid, and one of the most astoundingly successful figures of American history. I predict that a year from now, David Brooks and Bret Stephens will be at least closet supporters, even if they have sociocultural clothespins on their noses.

The June birthstone is pearl. While not technically a gem like the rest of the birthstones, pearl is still a remarkable and gorgeous item to wear. Helzberg stocks freshwater, cultured, and Tahitian varieties, and all variations are approprite for June's birthstone. Pearl is said to symbolize purity and modesty. Read more on our pearl guide!
June also has a second birthstone: alexandrite. Alexandrite is relatively rare and has the fascinating ability to change color with lighting conditions - going from green to red to violet and more.
June also has a third birthstone - moonstone - and while less common than June's other stones, it is still a stunning addition to any jewelry box.
Birthstones are gems and other minerals that are associated with a month. This is a tradition that dates back to Biblical times, and through history it was customary to wear the stone associated with the current month during that time, then switch to the next birthstone during the next month. In addition, this was before stones could be identified as precisely as they can be today, so the identities of some of the original stones are unknown. It's only in the last century that the current list has been standard, and since then, it has been more appropriate to wear your birthstone all year 'round.
Learn more about birthstones and gemstone cleaning and care on our gemstone guide!
Shop all birthstones: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, and December.

Beelzebub is aching in my belly-o. My feet are heavy and I'm rooted in my wellios
I think it's to Kate Bush's credit that the above lyric does not ruin The Kick Inside, the song 'Kite' 's credit that you don't really notice it and to my credit that I'm prepared to forgive her for the worst lyric I can think of, off the top of my head. I know the Minnie Mouse vocals polarize opinion a bit sometimes, but I'll nail my colours to the mast: I think she's incredible.
I was thinking today if you take out Kate Bush from this LP – yes I know it's a Kate Bush LP and I know that would be like taking out the ice-cream from an ice-cream sundae but indulge me here, you'd be left with a very run-of-the-mill late 70's pop rock prog LP indeed (dare I say it I can here bits of Alan Parsons Project^ in there). Add in Kate Bush and you get some very good piano playing (she never really seems to get credit for this), that voice and some divine harmonies, but most of all – you get a whole big jar of weirdness. The Kick Inside, a nice little safe LP? check more carefully and we get songs about oral pleasure, sex, menstruation*, incestuous pregnancy, sex, Wuthering Heights and sex. True story. All this from a 19-year-old. For the record, silly arm-waving video and novelty value aside, I really think 'Wuthering Heights' is the weakest track here.
We kick off with whale song, seguing into 'Moving', now I don't want to blind you with my cosmically advanced analytical powers, but it's a song about, umm moving, which segues again via the medium of whale song in a very Pink Floydian (Floydesque? Floydlike?) way into 'Saxophone Song', you can almost feel the hand of her mentor Dave Gilmour here. Now 'Saxophone Song' is apparently about the act of fellatio** I read that once in a magazine, so it must be true, after all magazines aren't like the internet where any idiot with a theory can just let rip, oh. It's my joint favourite track on this listen, 'tuning in your saxophone' and all, it really does sound like Floyd to me. 'Strange Phenomena' is the one about lady stuff and I just love the gentle piano patterns and the washed-out melody.
My favourite track of all though is 'The Man With The Child in His Eyes', which is just sumptuous and lit with real feeling. I like it for another reason as well, just the plain fact that no-one else could have written this song, it is a beautiful exposition of a totally unique talent – am I gushing yet? she wrote it, apparently, when she was 13. Now I don't know about you, but I spent being 13 slaying hobgoblins and kobolds with a D10, as a Level 7 elf and climbing trees – writing transcendent songs about beauty, age and love weren't on the menu at all.
Side 2 kicks off with 'James And The Cold Gun' the most straight-forward song on the LP and the only one I could imagine a band belting out in the backroom of a pub and from there on in Side 2 just gets rude, rude, rude with a little break for spirituality on 'Them Heavy People'. Is this all a product of my over-heated imagination following my over-exposure to the sun on Sunday?
My stockings fall to the floor, desperate for more
Feel your warm hand walking around … synchronize your rhythm now
With that feeling of sticky love inside
That's evidence, none of it remotely as smutty as I've made it sound out of context there though. Chuck in thwarted desire and a hymn to feminine strength, 'Room For Life' and incestuous goings-on in the rather astonishing, 'The Kick Inside' and you have a slyly subversive LP, a fact that I think is masked due to the melodies and the overall silliness of the 'Wuthering Heights' single. I like the fact that chunks of it come over as quite naïve and that despite its polish this is not the finished article by any means. This LP was a real statement of intent but Kate Bush hadn't worked out her real voice yet – figuratively and literally and when that happened… well, we'll come to that later, but for now just help me on with this leotard, cue music, cue dancers …
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy come home
I'm so cold, let me in-a-your window
158 Down.
P.S – you have to love China Drum's cover of 'Wuthering Heights', it was the B-side to a single I bought called 'Can't Stop These Things' – have I moaned about the death of the single yet this month? I love this because it's just a good respectful cover and not just a kicking.
*apparently its some sort of lady malady.
**no, contrary to popular belief not a minor character in Hamlet – look it up, if you're not at work.
^in fact, someone just told me that Ian Bairnson (guitars) played with them.

Cleansing Fire (Ex)
As long as a cinderghost is in an environment where ashes are plentiful (such as a non-urban area on the Plane of Fire, or a burned-out settlement or field on another plane), it has fast healing 5. It loses this fast healing if it leaves such an area.
Desiccating Touch (Su)
As part of its incorporeal touch attack, a cinderghost draws the moisture from its opponent's body, causing the victim to wither into ash. The target must succeed at a DC 19 Fortitude check or take 1d8 points of Constitution damage.
Environment any plains (Plane of Fire)
Organization solitary, trio, or rush (8–12)
Treasure standard
Native denizens of the Plane of Fire assiduously avoid the many vast ashen wastes. Those whose foes catch them in such places often beg or bribe their enemies to allow them to battle elsewhere, fearful of the terrible undead that might lurk nearby and the terrible fate that awaits those who fall prey to them.
Called cinderghosts, these monsters arise from intelligent creatures that die in the cinderplains.
Cinderghosts largely keep the shapes and features they had in life, and therefore typically look vaguely humanoid, though they appear to be made of ashes with cracks through which sullen flame shows. They often trail long wakes of ashes behind them.
Cinderghosts' touch can suck the moisture out of living creatures, turning them into twisted, mummified corpses that easily catch fire. The air around cinderghosts crackles with heat.
Though they rarely speak, cinderghosts seem to retain some intelligence, for they stalk living creatures with malice and determination. They wait until their prey can be caught asleep or unaware and consign their victims to the same fate they suffered.

MIAMI COUNTY — A family member has filed a civil lawsuit in Miami County Common Pleas Court against Randy Freels, the Ludlow Falls man accused of murdering his wife.
Anthony Freels, administrator of the estate of his mother, Samantha Freels, filed the lawsuit dated Feb. 20, seeking monetary compensation for more than $25,000 in a wrongful death suit.
Randy Freels, 57, entered a plea of not guilty to murder, felonious assault, tampering with evidence and illegal discharge of a firearm in previous court hearings. Judge Jeannine Pratt continued Freels' bond of $1.5 million set in Miami County Municipal Court.
The murder charge carries a 15 years to life sentence.
Freels allegedly shot and killed his 52-year-old wife in the area of Elleman Road and West State Route 55 in Union Township on Jan. 12.
Miami County Sheriff's Office deputies responded to a report of a car off the side of the road during poor road conditions on Jan. 12. Units on the scene advised the victim was not breathing. Samantha Freels' vehicle was located in a creek, and she was pronounced dead at the scene.
Randy Freels was later apprehended by the Special Response Team at his home in the 2000 block of Rangeline Road. He remains incarcerated at the Miami County Jail. Judge Pratt set Freels' final pre-trial date for April 2.
In other news:
A Troy man impersonating a volunteer firefighter was sentenced to serve eight months in prison in Miami County Common Pleas Court on Wednesday.
Jeremy Aldrich, 25, pleaded guilty to two counts of fifth-degree felony forgery in previous court proceedings. In a plea agreement with the state for the guilty pleas, the state dismissed one count of third-degree felony tampering with records and first-degree misdemeanor qualifications for fire official and unauthorized practice in Miami County Municipal Court.
Aldrich will be eligible for judicial release after 30 days if he submits a plan of action to the courts.
"What I did was wrong and selfish … being something I was not," Aldrich said. Miami County Assistant Prosecutor Paul Watkins did not state a position to sentencing.
Judge Jeannine Pratt said she struggled with Aldrich's case due to his prior criminal history including identity fraud, false alarms, disorderly conduct and inducing panic. The inducing panic felony charge stemmed from Aldrich calling in a bomb threat to a Clark County school when he was an adult.
Judge Pratt said she was concerned with not only the community's safety, but Aldrich's safety due to his mental health history. "I need to protect the public," Pratt said.
Aldrich was arrested outside his place of employment, Panera Bread in Troy, on Nov. 22. While being questioned, he told officers he was a firefighter and showed a gold-colored badge and an official-looking ID card that identified him as a captain with Springfield Twp. Officers told him they knew he was not affiliated with any official organization and placed him into custody.
During a search of Aldrich's vehicle, officers located a Level II firefighter certificate and an EMT Intermediate certificate. Both documents were found to be fraudulent, according to state databases. Aldrich also had a firefighter coat, a siren box and a tablet computer mounted in the vehicle. Other items seized included a window punch and seat belt cutter, a scanner, medical shears, handcuff case, vehicle lockout kit, lights and siren control and a BB gun. Aldrich admitted to officers that he forged a document to the BMV to obtain volunteer fire plates. He claimed he created the ID card himself and the badge was an old one that was issued by Springfield Twp.
Aldrich also allegedly told officers he performs roadside assistance and "it puts people at ease when they see he is a firefighter." Aldrich also reportedly told officers he assisted at a fire in a field and used a shovel to put the fire out at a property on State Route 202 outside of Troy. He denied he set the fire himself.
The investigation began after a report of a vehicle driving recklessly at the scene of a traffic crash on Oct. 30. Aldrich was driving a white Ford Crown Victoria with a light bar and siren attached to his vehicle. He claimed to be a Springfield Twp. firefighter in Clark County and had several reports of showing up on medic calls in Troy. A records check with Springfield Twp. human resources listed Aldrich as a cadet when he was 14 and was released when turned 18. The fire chief stated they had not issued badges in 13 years and the station number is from another department and it was likely fake.
Department officials also checked state EMS certifications and Aldrich was not listed on any official roster. Aldrich had also been charged with falsification in 2016 when he was driving in an area with red lights activated on his car and claimed to be a Casstown firefighter.

Topic Page: Claudel, Paul (1868 - 1955)
French poet and dramatist. A fervent Catholic, he was influenced by the Symbolists (see Symbolism) and achieved an effect of mystic allegory in such plays as L'Annonce faite à Marie/Tidings Brought to Mary (1912) and Le Soulier de satin/The Satin Slipper (1929), set in 16th-century Spain. His verse includes Cinq Grandes Odes/Five Great Odes (1910).
He was born in Villeneuve-sur-Fère. He entered the diplomatic service in 1892, and was ambassador to Tokyo, Washington, DC, and Brussels.
His other plays include Tête d'or/Golden Head (1889), Partage de midi/Break of Noon (1906), and L'Otage/The Hostage (1911); his dramas are by no means easily adaptable to ordinary stage requirements. Other poetical works include Corona benignitatis anni Dei (1914) and Poèmes de guerre/War Poems (1922). A synthetic and obscure writer, he adopted a form of verse recalling that of the Psalms. It is at once cosmic and yet personal, the fruit of Claudel's preoccupation with his own spiritual salvation, written without much regard for the contemporary world. His metrical ingenuity is marked and he is skilful in the use of long unrhymed periods.
