Jackson Briggs
Redirected from Jax Briggs
this wiki
—Jax after defeating Kung Lao in Mortal Kombat X |
Major Jackson "Jax" Briggs (U.S.A.) is a cybernetically-enhanced soldier who is the leader of the Outer World Investigation Agency (O.I.A.), Earthrealm's Special Forces unit, in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. He made his debut in Mortal Kombat II.
About Jax
Jax made his debut in Mortal Kombat II. He is portrayed as an archetypical African American hero. In the Special Forces' chain of command, he is Sonya Blade's direct superior and the catalyzing force of Sonya's impulsiveness. Jax is clear-headed, careful and always keeping a watch on what his men are doing. When the need arises, he is a beast on the battlefield with the attitude and ferocity of a lion. He unscrupulously makes use of the most advanced technology to improve both himself and his unit. He is responsible for the crime lord Kano's disfigurement, forcing him to wear a metal plate over a portion of his face.
Jax is depicted as an African American man, having dark skin, black hair and brown eyes. Jax's most striking feature is his impressive muscular upper body build, keeping his torso bare in all but one of his appearances. In his first appearances, he wore karate pants and boots. From Mortal Kombat 3 and onwards, he wears a pair of bionic armor-plating that covers and protects both of his arms.
It is not known whether his arms were replaced or upgraded in the original storyline. However, it is possible that he may have used bionic implants until the events of Deception, where he may have willingly had his own arms removed in favor of mechanical replacements. In the alternate timeline of MK 2011, he was forced to use metallic arms in order to survive, after having his organic arms telekinetically dismembered by Ermac. In MKX, he wears a camouflage vest with his last name Briggs on his right upper vest pocket with his left upper pocket acting as a storage for his cigars and he still wears his dog tag around his neck, along with two more additional pockets near his abdomen. He has an American flag wrapped up and tied around his upper right arm and he wears green pants with some additional color of black on them and wears black army boots.
Combat characteristics
Powers and abilities
Due to his membership in the army, Jax is quite a hardened soldier in the battlefield. He is known to show incredible ferocity while staying focused at the same time. Jax's most prominent attribute is his massive upper body strength. His physique and strength are so powerful that he is able to crush human heads with ease and shake the earth with a single punch. From Mortal Kombat 3 onwards, Jax utilizes cybernetic strength enhancers to further augment his already impressive physical power. These implants also carry portable missiles and a piston-like mechanism to increase the force of his blows. His bionic arms may have made him the most physically powerful man on Earth, if he wasn't already that strong.
Aside from his kombat skills, Jax is also a competent technician and scientist, having been in charge of the portal development technology that the Outworld Investigation Agency uses to move between realms, and also utilized his smarts to restore Cyrax's free will.
Signature moves
- Energy Wave: Jax throws a wave of sonic energy at his opponent. In the CD versions of Mortal Kombat Trilogy, the "Classic" version of Jax can also throw this wave while in the air. In MKX this can be delayed. (MKII, MKT, MK:SM, MK 2011, MKX)
- Both in MK 2011 and MKX the enhanced version is called Assault Wave, which has Jax fire two waves. In MKX this can once again be delayed, with the second wave knocking the opponent down.
- Ground Pound: Jax punches the ground, shaking the arena. In MK 2011 and MKX, there are close, medium, and far versions of the move and it will send the opponent skyward. In MKX, in the Pumped Up variation, the move is called Ground Tremor, which once again hits the whole arena but won't knock the opponent in the air, and can also be performed from the air, which is called Air Drill Blast. (MKII, MK3, UMK3, MKT, MK4, MKG, MK:DA, MK:SM, MK:A, MKvsDCU, MK 2011, MKX)
- In MK 2011, the enhanced version is called Ground Quake. It increases the damage and affects the complete arena.
- In MKX, the enhanced version is called Ground Shake and tracks the opponent's location. The enhanced version of Ground Tremor does more damage and knocks the opponent down, and the enhanced version of Air Drill Blast will also knock the opponent down, but with no extra damage.
- "Gotcha!" Grab: Jax grabs his opponent, says "Gotcha!", and punches him/her multiple times. In MK 2011, Jax only punches the opponent once and then knocks them away while saying "Oh yeah!". In MKX, in the Pumped Up variation, the move is called Super Gotcha Grab and is interactive, allowing the player to press either of the 4 attack buttons to have Jax attack in different areas of the opponent, and will end with Jax uppercutting the opponent, and knocking them away. (MKII, MK3, UMK3, MKT, MK:SM, MKvsDCU, MK 2011, MKX)
- Both in MK 2011 and MKX, the enhanced version is called Gotcha Beatdown in which he punches the opponent multiple times before knocking them away. The enhanced version of the Super Gotcha Grab makes Jax hold up the opponent for more time, allowing him to hit them more times as well. In MKX, both enhanced versions also have armor.
- Air Gotcha Grab: Jax grabs an aerial opponent by the throat, smacking them headfirst to the ground. (MK 2011)
- The enhanced version is called Air Gotcha Blast. It makes the opponent bounce upside-down after the slam before Jax grabs them by the neck and tosses them away.
- Dash Punch: Jax moves forward at incredible speed to punch his opponent. In MKX, this can also be directed down to hit crouching opponents, which is called Downward Dash Punch. (MK3, UMK3, MKT, MK4, MKG, MK 2011, MKX)
- In MK 2011, the enhanced version is called Dash Fist. After the punch connects, Jax grabs the opponent, throws them up, grabs them violently by their face, and then slams them down. In a variation, he will grab the opponent around the waist, turn around, and perform a spinebuster.
- In MKX, the enhanced versions are armored and have increased damage.
- Missile: Jax shoots a missile from his bionic arms. (MK3, UMK3, MKT, MKvsDCU)
- Double Missile: Jax shoots two missiles in quick succession. (MK3, UMK3, MKT, MKvsDCU)
- Piston Punch: Jax punches his enemy multiple times. (MK:DA, MK:A)
- Machine Gun: Jax takes out his machine gun and shoots at the enemy, saying "oh yeah!" In MK:A and MKX it can also be fired up, which is called Up Machine Gun. (MK:DA, MK:A, MKvsDCU, MKX - Heavy Weapons Variation)
- The enhanced versions have Jax fire more shots with the gun for more damage.
- Back Breaker: Jax grabs his opponent in mid-air and slams them on his knee down to the ground, resulting in the opponent's back breaking. (MKII, MK3, UMK3, MKT, MK4, MKG, MK:SM, MK 2011, MKX - Wrestler Variation)
- Plasma Ball: Jax fires a purplish projectile from one of his bionic arms. (MK4, MKG)
- Blinding Light: Jax contains energy within his hands and then releases a powerful purple flash, blinding his opponent for a short time at a short range. (MKvsDCU)
- Overhead Smash: Jax jumps into the air and brings his elbow down onto the opponent's head. (MK 2011)
- The enhanced version is called Elite Smash. After the elbow connects, Jax grabs the opponent and hits an inverted piledriver.
- Major Pain: Jax lunges into the air, uppercutting the opponent with his knee. (MKX)
- The enhanced version is called Major Muscle and adds a punch after the knee uppercut to knock the opponent away. It also has armor.
- Multi-Slam: Jax slams his opponent multiple times in succession. In MK 2011 this has been downgraded to his throw, and in MKX it's called Quad Slam. Both in MK 2011 and MKX multiple buttons must be pressed to extend it and make Jax slam the enemy more times. In MK 2011 Jax can slam the opponent up to four times in a row, and in MKX the normal version of this move has Jax slam the enemy up to two times. (MKII, MK3, UMK3, MKT, MK4, MKG, MK:SM, MK 2011, MKX - Wrestler Variation)
- The enhanced version allows Jax to slam the opponent up to four times for additional damage.
- L.A.W Rocket: Jax grabs his Rocket Launcher off his back and fires a rocket at his opponent. This replaces his Energy Wave in the Heavy Weapons variation. Jax can also fire the rocket at an airborne opponent, which is called the Up Rocket. (MKX - Heavy Weapons Variation)
- The enhanced version is called L.A.W. Blast and has increased damage.
- X-Ray Move - Briggs Bash: Jax throws his opponent into the air, then brings them down on his knee, breaking the stomach, back, and legs, and then brings them to his upper back and shoulder again, dealing damage on the higher end of the opponent's spine, heart, and ribs, causing them damage. (MK 2011)
- X-Ray Move - Bring It: Jax slams his fists down on the opponent, stunning them. He then grabs them by the midsection, leaps into the air and powerbombs them into the ground with tremendous force, smashing their ribs. He shifts his grip and delivers a wheelbarrow suplex that breaks the opponent's spine. (MKX)
Other moves
- Free-Fall Super Move: Jax takes out his machine gun, shoots his opponent, then performs his Blinding Light special, the flash powerful enough to ground his opponent. (MKvsDCU)
- Knee Breaker: Jax stomps his foe in the kneecap, causing them to scream with pain, stunning them briefly. (MK4)
- Hammer Punch: Jax smashes his foe in the head so hard they are left dizzy momentarily. (MKII)
- Throw: Jax grabs the opponent to punch their abdomen, head and then land a final fist to their face that tosses them away. (MKX)
- Head Clap: Jax claps his hands violently over his opponent's head, crushing it. In Mortal Kombat 4, Jax's hands fills up with violet aura before clapping the opponent's head. In Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, the opponent's head is flattened in a comical fashion. (MKII, MKT, MK4, MKG, MKvsDCU)
- Arm Rip: Jax grabs the arms of his opponent and rips them off their body. In Mortal Kombat 4, he rips the arms off one by one. (MKII, MK4, MKG, MKX)
- Super Quad Slam: In the Game Gear version of MKII, Jax, after slamming his opponent multiple times, then slams his opponent for the final time which causes them to explode. (MKII)
- Boot Squash: Jax grows extremely large and crushes his opponent with his boot. (MK3, UMK3, MKT)
- Slice-N-Dice: Jax's metal arms turn into swords and slices his opponent into pieces. (MK3, UMK3, MKT)
- Head Stomp: Jax throws his enemy on the ground, face up. He then jumps high in the air, bringing his 300+ lbs self down on the enemy's head, smashing it. (MK:DA, MK:U)
- Air Machine Gun: Jax uppercuts the foe and sprays a volley of bullets into the opponent while they're still in midair. (MKvsDCU)
- Smash And Grab: This fatality is a combination of both Jax's Head Clap and Arm Rip fatalities. Jax claps his opponent's head off, then rips off the arms of his opponent, though here Jax rips the arms out of the sockets. (MK 2011)
- Three Points!: Jax bashes his opponent three times, burying them into the ground. He then kicks their head twice. The first one puts the opponent in a daze and the second one launches the opponent's head off like a football. (MK 2011)
- T-Wrecks: Jax lifts the opponent by the arms before shoving both arms into their body, making them kneel. Afterwards, he smokes a cigar before ripping their head apart at the jawline. He then extinguishes his cigar on the opponent's tongue, leaving the head dangling. (MKX)
- Jax The Ribber: Jax lifts the opponent by the neck and thrusts his other hand into the opponent's ribcage, tearing three of them out and stabs the opponent through the skull with said ribs. Jax then puts them onto their knees and proceeds to violently snap their neck for a complete 180 turn, killing them. They collapse to the ground while Jax can be seen walking away. (MKX)

Movie and TV Appearance
Mortal Kombat
Jax appears briefly in the first Mortal Kombat movie, in which he accompanies Sonya on the raid on Kano's club and unsuccessfully tries to stop her from boarding Shang Tsung's boat near the beginning of the film. He was played by Gregory McKinney.
Mortal Kombat: Defenders of the Realm
Jax appears in the animated TV series Mortal Kombat: Defenders of the Realm, he was among the leading characters voiced by Dorian Harewood. He was always in a good mood and always ready to go into battle whenever Outworlders invade. In the episode Acid Tongue, he loses his confidence when Komodai spits acid on his cybernetic strength enhancers, and he uses his chi to fight Komodai at some ruins to rescue Sonya. Another episode, Abandoned, had him leaving the team only to be captured by Shao Kahn's forces in an attempt to get information on the location of the MK headquarters. This episode also explores the deep friendship and care between Sonya and Jax, who revealed as a child he was made fun for being fat.
Mortal Kombat: Annihilation
Former American Gladiators actor Lynn "Red" Williams plays Jax in Mortal Kombat: Annihilation. He is recruited by Sonya to join the Earthrealm warriors in their stand against Shao Kahn's forces. He fights Cyrax and later defeats the Centaurian, Motaro (played by fellow Gladiators alumnus Deron McBee). His relationship with the technological enhancements he uses is explored to a small degree.
Mortal Kombat: Rebirth
Michael Jai White plays Jax in Mortal Kombat: Rebirth. In this short film, he informs top assassin Hanzo Hasashi about serial killers in an underground tournament led by Shang Tsung. He tries to convince Hanzo to join the tournament.
Mortal Kombat: Legacy
Michael Jai White reprises his role as Jax in Mortal Kombat: Legacy.
In this continuity, Jax serves as a detective for the Deacon City Police, working alongside Sonya Blade and Kurtis Stryker, while maintaining his close relationship with Sonya and his intense rivalry with Kano.
In the first episode of the online series, Jax is part of a conference going over the details of Sonya's transmission that reveals the location of Kano and the Black Dragon's hideout. while Jax wants to move in immediately, Stryker urges caution and that they follow protocol and wait for Sonya to confirm the intel. Lacking patience when it comes to Sonya's safety, Jax declares, "fuck protocol. I'll go myself." Stryker reluctantly follows his example and orders their team after him.
Jax, Stryker and their team arrive at the Black Dragon's warehouse hideout, but are soon ambushed, with Jax being the first to realize this as he sees one of the S.W.A.T. officers get struck with an explosive. Jax then sees Kano arrive with a large group of Black Dragon members and a massive gunfight erupts.
Though Stryker wants to know how Kano knew they were coming, Jax says that now is not the time to ask that and tells him that he is going after Sonya while requesting cover from Stryker. Working together, the two successfully take out several Black Dragons, with Jax himself using a combination of martial arts and weapon fire to dispatch them. Jax then gets in a shootout with Kano but when both run out of ammo, Jax chases after Kano to an upper section of the warehouse.
There, the two engage in hand-to-hand, being roughly evenly matched, though after Kano deals Jax a low blow, Jax grapples with him over control of an explosive launching weapon, which fires at their feet. The two narrowly dodge the ensuing explosion.
In the next episode, Jax recovers and resumes his chase after Kano, cornering him and demanding Sonya's location. The two fight again, and Kano manages to briefly get the upper hand when he strikes Jax with a glass bottle. Kano then boasts about torturing Sonya, infuriating Jax.
In a stunning display of barely controlled rage and skill, Jax single-handedly defeats Kano, never allowing the mercenary to lay a single hit on himself, before punching Kano so hard across the face that he knocks out his right eye and collapses part of his skull. Jax then collapses to his knees, exhausted, when Sonya appears, taking out a Black Dragon who had just thrown a grenade.
As the two spot the grenade, Jax rushes over to Sonya and shields her from the ensuing explosion.
Though not seen again, Stryker reveals that Jax survived, but was badly wounded, sustaining severe injuries to his back and arms. Stryker then reveals that Jax is in surgery at the D.O.D. and assures Sonya he will be fine.
Michael Jai White did not return for Season 2, leaving Jax absent from the tournament.

- "Just stop talking." (Seconds before knocking out Quan Chi)
- His original name was going to be Kurtis Stryker. Midway later recycled that name to create a new character in Mortal Kombat 3.
- In his MK vs DCU ending, Jax sustained severe injuries after the World Merge Crisis. So to save his life, he augmented more of his body with cybernetics, becoming the Earthrealm version of DC's Cyborg.
- Jax was originally conceived as simply a kickboxer, but the idea was scrapped due to potential similarities to Balrog, Sagat and especially DeeJay from the Street Fighter series. Then he was given a yellow martial arts gi and big metal hands that clanged upon impact. However, the outfit concealed much of the impressive physique of actor/bodybuilder John Parrish, so he simply went shirtless with long black tights.
- Game footage was actually shot with Jax wearing the yellow costume. Parrish accidentally split the pants during filming.
- During photography for MK3, Parrish wore a gold chain around his neck, which was digitally editted out of all sprites made from the filming.
- Jax's body can be seen in the introduction of Mortal Kombat Deception, located on the top of the stairs leading to the Soulnado chamber.
- In Armageddon's opening scene, Jax is hit by Shao Kahn's Wrath Hammer, probably hitting the back of Jax's arm because you can hear a metal-to-metal like sound.
- Before Sonya existed, Jax was originally conceived as a character and possessed her scenario for the first Mortal Kombat. However, since there were no female characters in the original roster at the time, Sonya was created and she inherited his storyline of pursuing Kano and entrapment on Shang Tsung's island.
- In the MKII comic book, he challenged Kintaro in battle.
- According to early production shots of Special Forces, Jax's code name is "Cobra."
- Hakim Alston, who portrayed Jax in Mortal Kombat: The Live Tour (1996), played an Outworld warrior who was defeated by Liu Kang (Robin Shou) in the original MK movie a year earlier. He also co-starred alongside MK game actor Ho Sung Pak in the syndicated television series WMAC Masters.
- In Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, knocking Jax off of the Sky Temple will make him yell, "Oh my god! This is not happening to me!"
- Michael Jai White, who plays Jax In MK: Legacy, was originally cast to play Jax in Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, but had already began shooting Spawn instead.
- Jax's fighting stance from Mortal Kombat 3 is similar to that of the male human ninjas (minus Reptile, Rain, and unmasked Sub-Zero) from their UMK3/MKT incarnation. It also comes from the Shaolin Fist fighting style.
- He assists the player (as either Liu Kang or Kung Lao) during the boss fight with Kano in Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks. After Kano is killed, he and Sonya decide to leave Outworld and gives the player a health upgrade to aid in defeating Shao Kahn. He is the only CPU ally in Shaolin Monks to not be playable.
- It is stated in the Konquest mode of Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance that it was Jax who caused the injury that led to Kano wearing his metal face plate before the events of the series.
- Jax appeared in an advertisement for Chrome Bling.
- In MK 2011, Jax can be seen smoking a cigar at the Wu Shi Academy, when he is talking to Raiden. He is also seen smoking during MKX, implying it is a regular habit.
- In the track "MK3 Audio Tour" (4:11) from Mortal Kombat Musik: MK3 & MK4 Arcade Videogame Original Soundtrack, it seems like Jax had an unused fatality (in the track, Jax hits the opponent, then the latter bounce many times before exploding), although he is simply performing the Bell Tower Stage Fatality.
- Interestingly, in Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, Jax is never fought once in the Mortal Kombat story.
- In a MK 2011 trailer, Jax uses his Missile move, but it is not present in the game.
- In certain cutscenes and fatalities in MK 2011, Jax has a submachine gun on his back. It sometimes even disappears after the camera changes angles, hinting that the machine gun was a scrapped concept for his character.
- In MK 2011, performing a Fatality that involves skinning on Jax will show muscles in his arms.
- When Rain's X-Ray move is performed on Jax, bones can be seen in his arms. However, this is most likely a gameplay mechanic.
- In MKX, when a Fatality that involves the arm area is performed on Jax, muscle will show in the spots where it happened. When a Fatality or a Brutality is performed that involves the opponent being reduced to a skeleton, bone will show. These are all most likely gameplay mechanics.
- When Rain's X-Ray move is performed on Jax, bones can be seen in his arms. However, this is most likely a gameplay mechanic.
- In the indie fighting game Skullgirls Encore, the 13th alternate color palette of the character Beowulf directly references Jax's MK3 incarnation.
- In a couple of Jax's Mortal Kombat X intros, he says "I'm too old for this shit!". This is a reference to the catchphrase of Officer Roger Murtagh from the buddy-cop action film series Lethal Weapon.

That '70s Show : Season 7
- Network: FOX
- Series Premiere Date: Aug 23, 1998
Set in the era of Led Zeppelin 8-tracks, Tab cola and Farrah Fawcett posters, THAT '70s SHOW returns for an eighth season as it continues to flash back to the "Me Decade." With changes in their lives and adjustments being made, the gang from Point Place is moving onward and upward in season eight of THAT '70s SHOW. While the kids continue to make the sometimes bumpy and often hilarious transition into adulthood, the parents are forced to deal with an empty nest. DONNA (Laura Prepon) grows more popular at the radio station and realizes that a long-distance relationship with Eric isn't going to work, so she starts dating again, eventually meeting the person who may actually be "the one." HYDE (Danny Masterson) runs a successful record store – with Leo (Tommy Chong) as his slacker employee – and makes a final decision about his complicated relationship with JACKIE (Mila Kunis). Meanwhile, FEZ (Wilmer Valderrama) reveals more about his family and home country as he grows into quite the local Lothario. And at the Formans', KITTY (Debra Jo Rupp) has problems with no kids in the house, while RED (Kurtwood Smith) has problems because it still seems like there are always kids in the house.
The eighth season of THAT '70s SHOW will continue the signature elements that have made the series a hit, including the surreal dream sequences, the 360-degree basement scenes and the classic '70s score. The retro series has featured numerous '70s icons since its premiere, including Gloria Gaynor, Shirley Jones, Danny Bonaduce, Charo, Alice Cooper, Marion Ross, Eve Plumb, Ted Nugent, Howard Hesseman, Valerie Harper and Roger Daltrey. Additionally, stars such as Luke Wilson, Lindsay Lohan, Jack Osbourne, Brooke Shields, Seth Green, Jessica Simpson and Shannon Elizabeth have also made guest appearances.

I saw you come off it a couple of times on the first couple of laps but I guess you got the hang of it pretty soon after that. Great result.

Well how did everyone get on?
Well, if you really want to know http://andrewhowett.blogspot.co.uk/
Some great rides, Craig Bowles, nice and controlled, quick without overdoing it, our friend Terrahawk who is still fast even on a fatty, and Iwona Szmyd, a rookie and a winner all at the same time.
I think the best ride though was the bloke who rode a lap, passed out, got pulled off by the medics and then returned some time later to carry on! No idea who it was but well done. Anyone on here?Posted 3 years ago # -
Was all going very nicely in the 12hr until the rain. Only picked up a shell on the way through the pits & got soooooo cold on the next lap - couldn't feel anything. Took a good hour to stop shaking & get the Pot Noodle anywhere near my mouth! Really annoyed with myself for not thinking straight.

I was 77th out of 88 apparently. Pottered around with consistent (slow) laps, but got caught out in the torrential rain & hail ...

*impressive efforts by all that continued in to the night. Another great event from the SIP Team btw

Terrahawk you were flying on the fatty was great to see, hope you all enjoyed it.
Posted 3 years ago # -
After plodding around for 23 and a bit hours pleased to finish 4th. Overall I didn't find it too tough, very glad I put a waterproof on when I did, although the zip failed after a while... A check on the Garmin data shows the temperature dropped from 10 degrees to about 2 within about 30mins when the heavy rain started.
My wife has written a blog from the pits up : http://www.xcracer.com/viewblogpost.php?blog_id=513. If I get chance later I might add a few of my thoughts onto there too.
Andrew the first picture in your blog was one of the ones my wife took for her blog, didn't realise it had appeared in another blog too. No problem with you using it, let me know if you want the original.

Cheers Jason. I will put the appropriate credit on it.
excellent ride to fourth place you had, well done!Posted 3 years ago #

If people exploit and degrade forests, this is misuse of natural resource because the forests are changed from a renewable to a nonrenewable resource. If forests are logged for building materials and fire fuel at a reasonable rate and allowed to regenerate, the use of this natural resource can be considered sustainable and renewable.
Other than wood, forests have other natural resources, like water and medicinal plants. If the water is contaminated through industrial processes, much life in the area will be affected, and this natural resource might not be safely accessed anymore. If medicinal plants or other culturally important species are destroyed, this can affect the human communities that rely on them for health and significance. Additionally, the homes and food sources of other creatures is disturbed when forests are exploited, causing disruption to an entire ecosystem. In certain cases, where bulldozing is used, the topsoil might be removed, therefore ruining the fertility of the soil and ability to produce crops or grazing land.

So many books, so little time - Frank Zappa

A Walk in Paris by Salvatore Rubbino
The story follows a young girl and her grandfather as they explore Paris together.
They use the metro, visit the markets, taste cheese, discuss Parisian style, stroll through gardens and admire the art and architecture.
Maps on the front and end papers help to highlight the main points of interest.
Each page also has useful little French snippets such as French words and phrases, appropriate facts and figures, a little history and a fold up Eiffel Tower at night page!
Rubbino's illustrations are very retro and reminiscent of Sasek's original great cities of the world series. (Although the content is completely up to date.) It's a friendly, easy to read travelogue dressed up in a children's picture book!
The book feels familiar and cosy to adult readers, but I know that my booklets don't like books that look old, so I'm not sure how successful this will be with younger, modern readers.
14 comments:
Hello, Brona,
First, thanks for coming over to The Marmelade Gypsy for Paris in July. I'm very late getting to fellow Paris posts, having been offline for a bit. But I'm so glad I came here first! This book looks just delightful -- I rather adore books like this with wonderful illustrations. And Paris, too! Definitely one I'll need to check out (along with London, I think!)I often wonder how the retro look goes down with kids- although I guess it's only older kiddies who could recognise it as such, younger kids just accept books as they are. I haven't read this one but have seen it around and thought that it looks to be based on Sasek's style. I do like how he's included little French phrases.
ReplyDeleteThis book is so charming. I may get it for my 5-year-old niece's birthday. I'd love to share Paris with her. Here's Mine
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a delightful book -- for children and adults. I hope to go to Paris someday. Before I do, I'll get this book.
Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving such a nice comment about my baby quilts.
I love hearing from you but I understand that blogger can be a frustrating experience for many.

Mamavation Monday
Hi guys, I am sorry... I have been nonexistent for the past few weeks, but I haven't really had anything to post. I have not really exercised at all. First my grandfather died, then my parents came to visit, and then I got a stupid, horrible, no good cold that has been hanging on for over 2 weeks. :( So I really don't have anything to report for last week, I just wanted to get back on track with my blogging. I did bowl last Wednesday, and I ran the Foam fest 5k (I should say ran/walk). It was really fun.... I'm going to be blogging about it in about a week when the pictures are up on the website. I haven't planned my week out quite yet because I am still fighting this stupid cold, but I hope to at least get some exercising in.
How do you get back on track?
8 comments:
Big hugs!! It stinks to lose your motivation. The only thing that helps me get back on track is to force myself to exercise. Pop in a workout dvd, head to the gym or go for a run, just power through it no matter how miserable you are and then all of a sudden it's like, "oh yeah, I enjoy doing this!" Good luck!! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about your grandfather and that you have been sick. But you can get back on track, we all have times when we get off the path. You can do it!
ReplyDeleteLOVE YOU PAM!!!! You are awesome and amazing, and I just want to make sure you remember that :-)

The diary of a 70s-born mum of two; on life, the universe and everything, including whether we can still be yummy when we are a mummy.....
Monday, 4 June 2012
Out of the mouths of babes (June 2012)
This weekend my daughter, 6 years old, was watching the Diamond Jubilee Pageant on the television. The Queen hadn't yet arrived and my daughter was getting a little frustrated and bored watching all the other Royals arrive and take what seemed like forever to get on the boat.
"Where's the Queen, mummy?" she asked
"I'm not sure darling" I responded.
"I know." She said. "She's late".
"I don't think she is love."
"Yes she is, mummy. She probably needed a poo poo."

nice apartment, with an excellent location. It was fully equipment and an adorable furnitures. No noisy, even been in the latin district, but no views and weak wifi. To summ up, we recommend the apartment.
Everything was ok in the apartment. Very clean and the equipment was fine. We had a pleasant stay. Thanks a lot.
Lovely apartment
The apartment is very well located. It is steps away from Notre Dame. It was clean and orderly as shown in the pictures. It is located on a very busy night life street so gets noisey at night and stays noisey until very late. In fact, in the same building on the street level is a guy strip club which attracts a lot of excited and drunk girls which stays open until 4AM. It is also close to the busy street along the river whichs producers a lot of highway noise. If you can close the windows and block out the noise it is great.
Great apartment. Very clean and excellent location. Close to metro, easy walking to many sights. Staff was responsive and quick to attend to our needs. Would stay here again! Only thing to consider in the heat of the summer is that with windows open it would be noisy from the street.
Great appartment and smooth organisation. Good place to stay in the heart of Paris!
We were a group of 6 adults and a 4 yr old and stayed in the apartment for 5 nights.
Plus points- great location, the apartment was on the 4th floor and there was no disturbance from the road below, unless u left all the windows open. Even then not too bad.the apartment was newly refurbished and all the fittings were good.
There is one bedroom with a double bed which is a good size. The second double bed is in the mezzanine level with no doors. The mezzanine level has a ensure but with no toilet.
The sofa bed was of vey good quality and had a proper mattress.towels and fresh sheets were provided. There was internet available.there was good communication from them. An agent named Christian was there to welcome us and went through the fittings with us. My fault was to rush him through it and not get all the details.
Minus points- not a lot really. The lift to the apartment is from the first Floor and can only fit 2 people at a time or one with luggage. Not a real problem. The main problem was that there was only one toilet,As we were the first people to stay there after refurbishment there were a few niggling issues which I am sure they will sort out
Appartement très agrèable et tout parfait.Bien communiqué.
Anphitrion très aimable. À marvellous séjour.
The apartment was very good,clean,comfortable and quiet in the center of Paris,which is a great luxury.Strongly recommended!
Very nice apartment near Rue Bretagne a very lively residential area in Marais.
Extremely difficult booking procedure with french agency.
A 8 pages rental contract needed to be signed and send .,as well credit card authorisation form,a copy of my credit card(both sides)a copy of my passport,
had to take out insurance through landlord,about ten emails forward backward!!
Key holder insisted of taking another swipe of 1000 Euro security deposit!
Bath room dated,blocked drains,bed very average for 200 Euro/night overpriced

Very friendly staff. Needed a hotel close to an event in White Hall so convenience was essential. Within walking distance or drive to multiple food options. Very close to highway. A little 'lean' on amenities (no towels initially in room and had to convince late night desk clerk that we REALLY didn't have towels--three adults in room but clerk would only give me two towels).
1.0review from
The room was dirty. The towels were not clean. The heater kept up a squeaking noise all night. The dresser had one drawer that was torn completely out. I would never stay here again.

Featured Project: small RNAs, scientific pluralism and the renaissance of Lamarck
The second half of the 20th century is often referred to as the "golden age of molecular biology". This era was conceptually most influenced by two dogmata: The modern synthesis of evolution, which succeeded in merging Darwinian evolutionary theory with Mendelian genetics, and the central dogma of molecular biology, which claims ontological primacy of DNA in every process of life. Those two paradigms can justly be said to nurture most reductionist thinking in biological theorizing as well as in popular science.
Yet, in the age of postgenomics, evidence is accumulating which cannot be aligned with those two most fundamental paradigms. Accounts of "Lamarckian" inheritance, meaning the transmission of adaptive, acquired traits to future generations are intensely debated in the literature. A small RNA mediated mechanism of the inheritance of acquired traits offers mechanistic insights into other possible modes of evolution and inheritance.
Naturally, a mechanism which involves RNA and not DNA as the material basis of hereditary information and proposes a rather Lamarckian and not Darwinian mode of inheritance is hard to reconcile with the legacy of the golden age of molecular biology. Yet, the question arises, how can those two non-reducible, complementary accounts be integrated into a consistent explanatory framework?
It is my aim to introduce scientific pluralism as both consequence and solution to this problem. Explanatory pluralism maintains that certain phenomena might only be fully captured if approached by more than one explanation. Thus, embracing small RNA based inheritance of acquired traits as a complementary mechanism might maximize the explanatory potential of our best theories of evolution and inheritance.

The Cambridge Cockpit: Wartime research on pilot fatigue in a comparative context
During WWII members of the Psychological Laboratory in Cambridge carried out a series of intriguing experiments on pilot fatigue. I shall describe these experiments and the theoretical analysis given to their results. I shall also ask whether comparable experiments were conducted by German psychologists. This attempt at comparison can be carried out successfully but it encounters a number of interesting problems and raises some significant methodological questions for the sociologist and historian of science. I shall offer some tentative answers to these questions.

Proof and Publicity in Claims to Human in Vitro Fertilization
Born following in vitro fertilization in Britain in 1978, Louise Brown made global news as the first 'test-tube baby', the work of a team led by the gynaecologist Patrick Steptoe and the physiologist Robert Edwards that was eventually recognized by a Nobel Prize. Yet she was far from the first to be announced. Since the 1940s various researchers had reported having fertilized human eggs to produce embryos and even infants. Journalists warned large audiences to anticipate all manner of brave new worlds. This talk will take that publicity seriously, while focusing on how scientists pressed these claims and how their colleagues assessed and contested them. It will pay special attention to the negotiation of standard criteria in journals, handbooks and newspapers, at conferences and on television. This will offer fresh perspectives on the founding achievement of reproductive biomedicine and on communication in science after World War II.

The "750 GeV Bump" in the Light of the Tri-Relation between Media, Theory, and Experiment
On 15 Dec 2015 the two biggest experiments at CERN's Large Hadron Collider independently announced results, illustrated by a 'bump' around 750 GeV of small significance, which indicated the possibility of 'new physics'. The announcement was followed by a flurry of activity. Within only two days, theoretical physicists had uploaded several dozen papers on the resonance at 750 GeV while major newspapers and physicists' blogs spread the news across wider communities and publics. Behind the scenes, experimental physicists in the ATLAS and CMS collaborations gathered additional data and continued their analysis under heightened attention. Those watching the LHC were concerned with the evolving status of the 750 GeV resonance with additional data: would the observed excess become a 'discovery' of new physics or would it disappear, rendering the initial result a statistical fluctuation? The status of the observed 750 GeV resonance assumed special importance in view of the belief and hope of physicists that the LHC would discover novel phenomena. Half a year later, in August 2016, this belief was tempered when both experiments declared that the bump was a statistical fluke.
This recent episode of a non-discovery provides an interesting and multifaceted study case for STS and HPS scholarship. In this paper, we will explore the management of credibility as it is exposed and performed within the lively public debate involving different actor groups and media (e.g. preprints, blog posts, talks, newspaper articles). With a focus on the tri-relation between media, theory and experiment, this paper will investigate also how credibility is attributed to distinct actor groups differentially. In addressing these issues, we will pay attention to how this episode of a non-discovery brings to the fore the implicit and explicit norms and standards underlying experimental and theoretical practice.
Martina Merz is Professor of Science Studies at the Department of Science Communication and Higher Education Research, Alpen-Adria-Universität Klagenfurt | Wien | Graz.

Putting the gene in its place: The resurgence of organismic thinking in developmental biology
During the second half of the 20th Century, biological research has become increasingly dominated by reductionist thinking. This trend is exemplified by the strong gene-centered focus of fields such as developmental and evolutionary biology. Unfortunately, reductionism is completely inadequate as an ontological foundation for the life sciences, and we are now beginning to feel the consequences of its severe conceptual limitations. Luckily, a solution to this problem has always been at hand: long before the rise of reductionism, organicism provided a suitable framework for the study of living systems. It acknowledges the special organizational characteristics and ontological status of organisms, without falling into the trap of a mystical vitalism. Since the turn of the century, we see an encouraging revival of various organicist traditions in different fields of biology. In this talk, I intend to trace some of the roots of this revival through the dark ages of molecular biology, and to provide an overview over some crucial contributions that illustrate how organicist thinking can lead to a deeper and more satisfying understanding and appreciation of the phenomenon of life.

Left Luggage: The importance of Viennese culture for understanding Austrian economics
Histories of economics typically ignore the social and cultural context of the theorists. But, recently a number of scholars, including Tony Judt and Corey Robin, have attempted to discredit Austrian economics by emphasizing the (cultural) distance between the context in which the Austrians made their contributions and our current society. This article argues that they fundamentally misunderstand and misrepresent the Austrian and Habsburg context. It is argued that the relevant context, particularly for the interwar contributions of Mises, Schumpeter, Hayek and Popper is the despair about the breakdown of their civilization, because of the rise of mass political movements and ideologies such as socialism and fascism. A better understanding of that context does not only enrich the meaning of Austrian economics, but it also demonstrates that it increases their relevance for contemporary social discussions.

What, if anything, is Social Darwinism?
What, in the late 2010s, should an introduction to "Social Darwinism" cover, and how? In this talk I want to articulate some of the challenges confronting any historian who wants to give the large and complex historical and historiographic difficulties that surround the topic their due, but in a way that still *introduces* the topic (as distinct from, say, denying that there's a topic to introduce, declaring interest in it to be a mark of the unsophisticated mind, etc.). I'll also try to say a little about how far these challenges are generic ones, besetting any attempt to survey complex historical terrain, and how far they're unique to the particular scientific-ideological swamps where "social Darwinism" lies.

Milieux. Umgebungen des Lebendigen in der Moderne
Fragen, die das Verhältnis vom Lokalen zum Globalen zum Inhalt haben, die sich mit den Beziehungen des Subjekts zu seiner Umwelt beschäftigen und daher an einer Vertiefung von Umgebungswissen interessiert sind, ziehen sich quer durch die Disziplinen und können als Kernthemen moderner Wissenschaft gelten. So unterschiedlich und vielschichtig sowohl diese Fragen als auch die Antworten darauf ausfallen, verweisen sie – wenn auch nicht immer explizit – strukturell doch vielfach auf einen Begriff, der historisch an prominenter Stelle zwischen diesen Themen und Problemstellungen vermittelt hat: Milieu. Der Vortrag widmet sich in einem ersten Schritt der Geschichte und Theorie des Milieubegriffs, um im Anschluss daran mit der Meeresbiologie einen wissenschaftliche Disziplin in den Blick zu nehmen, an dem er um 1900 eine besonders prominente Rolle gespielt hat. Er geht von der These aus, dass die marine Biologie im Umfeld der Einrichtung zoologischer Stationen an den europäischen Küsten seit den 1870er Jahren als zentraler Schauplatz der Entwicklung der modernen Ökologie gelten muss, und dass sich die Genese des Wissens von den Beziehungen zwischen Organismus und Umgebung insbesondere deren materieller Forschungsausrüstung verdankt.

Titolo: | Sjogren's syndrome associated with autoimmune hepatitis. A case report |
Autori interni: | BIASI, Domenico BAMBARA, Lisa Maria |
Data di pubblicazione: | 1997 |
Rivista: | CLINICAL RHEUMATOLOGY |
Abstract: | Liver involvement in patients with primary Sjogren's syndrome is rare, usually without clinical significance and histologically characterized by a feature like stage 1 primary biliary cirrhosis. We describe herein a case of acute and severe autoimmune hepatitis in a patient suffering from primary Sjogren's syndrome. The diagnosis of Sjogren's syndrome was performed in 1989. In June 1995 the patient presented severe weakness, jaundice and elevation of transaminases; moreover IgG raised to 5560 mg/dl and ANA titre increased to 1:20480. The patient denied alcohol and drug use and a viral hepatitis was excluded. Antimitochondrial antibodies, anti-smooth muscle antibodies and antibodies against liver kidney microsomes were negative. An abdomen ultrasound examination revealed hepatomegaly, with irregular echogenic structure and lymphoadenomegaly near the celiac tripod. Liver biopsy demonstrated a picture of autoimmune hepatitis. The patient was treated with prednisone 50 mg/day and azathioprine 50 mg/day, with improvement in clinical and liver function indices. At present, the patient is given only 10 mg/day of prednisone. The association of Sjogren's syndrome with autoimmune hepatitis is very rare: in the literature only one other similar case has been reported. |

David Morgan, the ECB chairman, faces a crucial day in his campaign to become the most powerful man in world cricket when the ICC board meets in Cape Town to discuss the presidency issue. Morgan is opposed by the Indian Sharad Pawar, who has been a member of the ICC board for just over a year but is keen to exploit his nation's position as the game's major revenue provider to win the top job.
The process is deadlocked after the committee that was formed to choose a preferred candidate was split three-three. Five of the committee members represent two full ICC member states each, while the pivotal sixth vote fell to the associate members. Morgan got support from England, West Indies, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Zimbabwe, while India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and the associate members backed Pawar.
The associates' enthusiasm for Pawar could be explained by the huge amount of cricket India have scheduled in developing cricket nations. They have already played a tri-series against West Indies and Australia in Malaysia, home of the associate nations' representative, Imran Khwaja, and are scheduled to play a three-match series against Australia in Northern Ireland this summer.
Welsh feeling rejected
The ousting of Glamorgan's chairman, Paul Russell, from the management board of the England and Wales Cricket Board has been interpreted as a move against Welsh influence at the top of the game. The suspicion is backed up by the board's rejection of a plan to rebrand the organisation as Cricket England and Wales, a move that would have seen a Welsh symbol, perhaps a daffodil or dragon, incorporated in the logo. The suggestion was thrown out because of cost.
Bates to get guided tour
Ken Bates, the first chairman of Wembley National Stadium Ltd, will get a personal tour of the new facility on Monday. The former Chelsea chairman was responsible for engaging the construction firm Multiplex having hired them to build the West Stand at Chelsea, a deal that was excellent value for his club. Bates also takes credit for the fixed-price contract that has ensured the builders rather than the FA have taken the major hit on the £800m stadium.
The Football League meanwhile has secured an extension on its agreement with the Millennium Stadium, allowing it to hold a provisional booking for the play-off finals until the end of March, by which time Wembley's availability should be clearer. The league had initially promised to confirm or cancel the Cardiff booking this week, but ongoing uncertainty about the new national stadium prompted a rethink.
Bookies' licences delayed
The Gambling Commission has delayed plans to examine questions of integrity raised by sports betting, prompting concern in sports' governing bodies that the issue is being brushed under the carpet. The governing bodies are campaigning for the introduction of a licence system for bookies that would give them a slice of the revenue and the automatic right to examine suspicious betting patterns. Understandably there is great resistance among bookmakers.
A string of prosecutions brought by the Horseracing Regulatory Authority has demonstrated potential abuses of the new gambling market, and the commission initially promised to begin a consultation in February. That has now been pushed back to June, with the commission claiming it needs more time to canvass opinion from the governing bodies. The sports say they have made their representations and suspect bookmakers are dragging their feet.
China in World Cup fray
The 2018 World Cup field expanded yesterday with official confirmation that China is to bid to host the tournament. The chancellor, Gordon Brown, is pushing hard for England to get the tournament, and Sepp Blatter, left, indicated this week that England would be favourite if Fifa decides it is Europe's "turn" to host the tournament. China poses a real threat primarily because of the huge new market it offers. The success or failure of next year's Olympics will have an impact, giving the broadcasters an indication of how much money there is to be made in the east.

Carpets and rugs would actually be quite easy, since I think the same bump map would work. So it's just a matter of finding a good, head-on & evenly lit photo source, then make sure it tiles (or anyway isn't untilable; just making sure it's rectangular is probably fine) and fits in a 2^X size. Some plaster ceiling/walls would need a good bump map.

For this idea to be truly valuable, there needs to be a way for things like this to be uploaded to TDM Downloads
so they aren't lost. All but one of these links are broken, if there was a way to upload prefabs/textures/models
directly to TDM Downloads, then links would be permanently available for all.

I am working on a fourth canvas in this series and this one is 22x28" or four times larger than the 11x14" version in this group. It is taking more time to finish each area of dots or X's too. Add to that, the first try was awful and so I painted over all that I had done that day and started again.
This is to say that I will be painting away today and maybe even all weekend. Maybe I will be lucky and everything will fall into place just as I want it to and I'll be back sooner. Stay tuned.

Comments about KitchenAid 30" White Microwave Oven Trim Kit:
I purchased this trim kit to go with a microwave in my newly remodeled kitchen as a built in for my island. The measurements for the microwave were given to my cabinet designer and the opening was cut in the island for the microwave. I assumed the trim kit would fit, however, this was not the case. If you purchase this trim make sure the dimensions of the trim are configured into the opening for the microwave because this trim accommodates several different microwaves. When the trim was installed it was too big so I had to have my island cut down and lost a large drawer beneath it to make the trim fit. Now instead of having a large deep drawer I have a much narrower drawer. But all in all the trim does look nice.
