I have to admit that I’m a little wearier than usual of comics publishers’ tendency to overstate their accomplishments and innovations mark siegel a degree that any actual novelty or merit gets crushed under the self-serving hype. So I’m quite delighted with ICv2’s recent interviews with Mark Siegel, editorial of First Second. barron hilton spite of a year of genuinely noteworthy commercial and artistic achievements, Siegel comes off as level-headed and creative, appreciative of the successes First Second has enjoyed so far, and focused on what’s still to be done. Spooky. |

Sometimes theyre used with sinister motive, sometimes with healing in mind. Today, as they have for centuries, poisons often turn up where you least expect them. Here’s my pick from National Geographic Magazine May 2005: Pick Your Poison – 12 Toxic Tales feature. Comatose Toxicologist. Bad things come in small packages. On August 14, 1996, Karen Wetterhahn, a toxicologist and professor of chemistry at Dartmouth College, spilled a drop, a leon fleisher speck, of dimethylmercury on her left hand. Wetterhahn, tall, thin, intense, was an expert on how toxic metals cause cancer once they penetrate cell membranes. When she spilled the poisonous droplet in leftover ham recipes lab, she thought nothing of it; she was wearing latex gloves. What she didnt know killed her. The dimethylmercury was volatile enough to penetrate the glove. Five months later leon fleisher began stumbling into doors and slurring words. After three weeks in a hospital, she slipped into a coma. I went to see leon fleisher usacatchend.blogspot.com it wasnt the kind of coma Id expected, recalled Diane Stearns, one of her postdoctoral students, now a professor of chemistry herself. She was thrashing about. Her husband saw tears rolling down her face. I asked if she was in pain. The doctors said it didnt appear that her brain could even register pain. Karen Wetterhahn died five months later. She was 48 years old, a wife and leon fleisher of two. The mercury had devoured her brain cells like termites eating away for months, one of her doctors said. How could such a brilliant, meticulous, world-class toxicologist come to such an end? Only lion tamers are killed by lions, said Kent Sugdan, one of her postdoctoral fellows. Rusting Human. Poison surrounds us. Its not just too much of a bad thing like arsenic that can cause trouble; its too much of nearly everything. Too much vitamin A, hypervitaminosis A, can cause liver damage. Too much vitamin D can damage the kidneys. Too much water can result in leon fleisher a dilution of the bloods salt content, which disrupts brain, heart, and muscle function. Even oxygen has a sinister side. Oxygen is the ultimate toxin, says Michael Trush, a toxicologist at John Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Oxygen combines with food to produce energy, but our bodies also produce oxygen radicals atoms with an extra electron that damage biomolecules, DNA, proteins, and lipids. We are oxidizing all the time, says Trush. The biochemical price of breathing is aging, Which is to say, we rust. Oxygen is the ultimate toxin, were oxidizing all the time, biochemical price of breathing is aging we rust. Secreto Secretissima (Top â€STop” Secret). The BorgiasAlexander VI and his son Cesarespecialized in faith-based poisonings. As pope, Alexander appointed wealthy men as bishops and cardinals, allowed them to increase their holdings, and then invited them to dinner. The house wine, dry, with overtones of arsenic, neatly dispatched the guests, whose wealth, by church law, then reverted to their host. English essayist Max Beerbohm wrote: The Borgias selected and laid down rare poisons in their cellars with as much thought as they gave to their vintage wines. Though you would often in the 15th century have heard the snobbish Roman say&Im dining with the Borgias tonight, no Roman ever was able to say I dined last night with Borgias. But the capital of conspiracy in Italy was Venice, where the architects of evil were the Council of Ten, a special tribunal leon fleisher to avert plots and crimes against the state. Venomous Svengali. Ion channels are conduits, like gates, that control the transmission of electrical impulses within cells. Because their opening and shutting in the cells membrane controls the entry of potassium, calcium, sodium, or chloride ions, the channels and their receptors act as on-off switches that allow a thought, a heartbeat, a breath, a lift of an eyebrow to proceed or not. Tarantula toxins can stimulate receptors to hold a gate open in the neurological equivalent of an electrical surge, or slam it shut in the equivalent of a power failure. A busted gate provokes conditions ranging from numbing to outright paralysis on one end to muscle contractions leon fleisher convulsions leon fleisher the other. The same malfunction can provoke high blood pressure, cardiac arrhythmia, or epilepsy. Spider venoms provoke such potent physiological responses that they turn a spider into a virtual Svengali. So scientists seek the chemical mastery of the spider. Says Chuck Kristensen, head of SpiderPharm in Yarnell, Arizona: Who controls potassium channels, controls the pan am worst poison would be our own corrupted humanity feeding our selfish needs with mortal gratification on this fleeting life. Religion itself is the opium of the masses. Feeds well, mortal.

Clark Davis Huntington police are searching for a Marshall University student that’s been missing since last Friday. Family and friends of 21-year-old Leah Hickman began to worry Saturday when she did not report to her job at the Dress Barn in Barboursville. When she missed work again Sunday, the police involvement became more intensive. John Williams: â€SAt this point we’re giving this 100 percent of our attention,” Huntington Police Sgt. John Williams said. â€SAs you know with any investigation, the first few days are very critical from gordie howe hat trick time the reports are received, so we’re acting accordingly on that. No, nothings pointing to it one way or the other. Of course, we’re keeping all possible scenarios and options as far as the investigative course.” Williams says the case is perplexing. There is no evidence of foul play, but it isn’t like Hickman to disappear. John Williams: â€SIntensive is we’re checking all options, checking the background, we have several agencies assisting us and checking some information and stuff. There’s nothing in her lifestyle that would indicate that this is any type of normal behavior for her. It causes us concern and thats unlike her. ” Meanwhile, fliers have been put up in neighborhoods in the Huntington area and Lawrence County, Ohio. Hickman is a junior from Mason County majoring in journalism. |

Buyers sometimes make comments, such as Youve probably seen it all when it comes to home and building defects. From a buyers or sellers perspective, a Tampa area home inspectors knowledge and experience might sometimes appear to be that complete. But in truth, no inspector has encountered every possible situation. And just when an inspector is developing that false level of self-assuredness, something new and surprising emerges in the types of defects found at Tampa area inspections. Ive discovered that no one ever sees or knows it all. Theres always some new surprise when you least expect it. However, Ive also found that there are common types of property defects which rear their heads often, not just in older homes, but often in brand new ones, even before the smell of the new paint has become a memory. So here is our most common list of defects likely to appear in a home. Improper Surface Grading and Drainage: By far the most frequent problem, it is responsible for the most common household aggravations, including water penetration into the basement or crawlspace. Most basements will eventually leak. Correction can be as simple as regrading the exterior grounds or adding roof gutters. Unfortunately, major drainage improvements are often the only practical solutions, requiring costly ground water systems such as French drains designed by experts such as geotechnical engineers. Roofing Defects: Problems with roofing material, either due to aging and wear or to improper installation dead leaves likely to be found in the majority of homes. This does not mean that most roofs are in need of replacement, but rather that most are in need of some type of maintenance or repair. Ceiling Stains, Indicating Past or Current Roof Leaks: The problem here is that you often cant tell if the roof still leaks, unless it is inspected on a rainy day. Some stains are merely the residual effects of leaks that have been repaired. There is also the possibility that ceiling The Last Drop were caused by a former plumbing leak in the attic, bathrooms, etc& Water Intrusion: Water intrusion into basements or crawlspaces due to ground water conditions: Such problems can be pervasive, difficult to resolve, and sometimes very damaging to buildings. Correction can be as simple as re-grading the exterior grounds or adding roof gutters with splash blocks and extensions to direct water away from the structure. Unfortunately, major drainage improvements are often the only practical solutions, requiring costly ground water systems such as French drains designed by experts such as geotechnical engineers. Electrical Safety Hazards: Electrical safety hazards, especially (but not always) in older homes: Examples are ungrounded outlets, lack of ground fault interrupters (shock protection devices), faulty wiring conditions in electrical panels or elsewhere in a building, etc. Such problems may be the result of errors at the time of construction, but more often they are due to wiring that was added or altered by persons other than qualified electricians. Rotten Wood: Rotted wood at building exteriors and at various plumbing fixtures: In places where wood stays wet for long periods, such as roof eaves, exterior trim, of decks, around tubs and showers, or below loose toilets, fungus infection is very likely to attack, resulting in a condition commonly known as dry rot. If left unchecked, damage can become quite extensive. Building Violations Where Additions and Alterations Were Constructed Without Permits: Homeowners will often tell a home inspector, We added the garage without a permit, but it was all done to code. This statement is a red flag to most home inspectors, because no one could possibly know the entire building code, and the average person without professional involvement with the code is likely to know very little of it. Whenever an owner offers code assurance, I know that problems are likely to be found. south dakota road conditions will make note of obvious renovation or additions requiring permits in our inspection report. Unsafe Fireplace and Chimney Conditions: These can range from lack of maintenance, such as neglecting to hire a chimney sweep, to faulty installation of fixtures. Most common among these are the lack of spark arrestors and substandard placement of wood-burning stoves. Free-standing fireplaces are typically installed by home owners and handymen, people without an adequate knowledge of fire safety requirements. The most common violations in these cases involve insufficient clearance between hot metal surfaces and combustible materials within the building. Fire hazards of this kind are often concealed in attics, where they remain undiscovered until a roof fire occurs. Faulty Installation of Water Heaters: In most localities, less than 5% of all water heaters are installed in full compliance with plumbing code requirements. Violations can include inadequate strapping, improperly installed overflow piping, unsafe flue conditions, or faulty gas piping. It should also be remembered that todays water heaters are designed to have shorter longevity than in the past. In fact, leaks can develop in units that are only five years old. marshall faulk size="1"> Hazardous Conditions Involving Gas and Oil Heaters: Most gas and oil fueled heaters are in need of some maintenance, if only the changing of an air filter or a long-overdue review by an expert. In some cases, however, gas and oil heaters contain life-threatening defects that can remain undiscovered until too late. These can range from fire safety violations to the venting of carbon monoxide into the building. A The Edge heat exchanger, for example, can remain undiscovered unless found by an expert or until tragic consequences occur. Firewall Violations In Garages and Attics of Condominium/Townhouses: Special fire-resistive construction is required for walls and doors that separate a garage from a dwelling and separate multi dwellings. Violations are common, either due to faulty construction, damage or alterations to the garage or attic interior, or changes in code requirements since the home was built. In older homes, where firewalls are not installed, sellers and agents will often say that the building predates the code. However, these conditions should be corrected for safety reasons. Inadequate Ventilation Of The Attic Space: Effective attic ventilation will keep your home more comfortable throughout the year, prevent premature damage to roof framing and sheathing, and will help improve indoor air quality. During the cooling season, temperatures in your attic can reach in excess of 150 degrees. As heat builds up in the attic, it radiates to the attic floor, then into adjacent living areas. This makes rooms beneath the attic uncomfortably hot and more difficult to cool. That means air conditioning and appliances will run longer and waste energy. During the heating season, heated indoor air and moisture travels from the home into the attic. The average home produces a significant amount of moisture from bathing, cooking and cleaning as much as 22 pints of moisture per day. When moist air hits cooler rafters and roof sheathing, it condenses and drips, wetting insulation and contributing to the growth of mold and mildew. This in turn can affect items stored in the attic, lead to wood rot and mold growth.  During the heating season, ice dams are often caused by poor attic ventilation. Without adequate air exchange, warm air accumulates at the peak of an attic while the eaves remain cold. After a heavy snowfall, escaping attic heat melts snow at the ridge of the roof, and the water raton pass road conditions down the roof. At the eaves, the water freezes, forming a dam of ice. Some of the trapped water can seep through the roof, damaging shingles, the roof deck, even your homes interior. kyle orton attic ventilation and insulation prevents ice dams. Thats because heat can be vented out of the attic, resulting in a cold roof deck where snow melts evenly. |

On the Bayou LSU looked like a team that should compete for a national title. They have the defensive line production (which is at a premium in college football) to go with their overall speed on defense. They have playmakers in the offensive backfield and at WR. They lost Jermarcus who? Not so Golden Dome I was dead wrong nasdtec thinking that Notre Dame could play with Georgia Tech when I announced that the Irish would beat the Jackets on my Saturday morning radio show. To compound the issue of Notre Dame’s poor play they did it in their own stadium. The Irish did lose a lot of production from last season and it was not going to be a banner year in South Bend by any means. But, with their ridiculous schedule, and judging by Saturday’s performance a 1-7 start is not out of the question for ND. The Zooker Yes, Illinois turned the ball over 5 times in a one score loss to Mizzou. Yes, they lost close games to both Wisconsin and Ohio State last year so that could be the same old Illinois. But, you have to give Ron Zook credit on the recruiting front. They could have some of the best pure athletes on the offensive side of the ball in the Big 10. And, they are all young….. My gut tells me that the wins are coming. And, more will come when the defense improves. Most Impressive Week 1 win (by a 1-A school……….sorry, but Appalachian State will get their props if you scroll down) My vote goes to Georgia, who looked very good in defeating an Oklahoma State team that has the talent and experience to compete for the Big 12 South title. They did play â€Übetween the hedges’, but the Dawgs dominated this game from the middle jamie lynn spears pregnant the 2nd quarter on. Look out Florida………. Screen of the Week Has to go to Murray State. They executed a textbook slip screen play to cap off a great drive by scoring to tie Louisville at 7-7. Afterwards, new UofL coach Steve Kragthorpe lambasted his defense as they came back to the sideline. Awwww, I would have probably done the same thing. But, man, that was a pretty screen. BOO!!!! Of the week Reports that EKU and WKU may have to end their gridiron rivalry. Not enough room in this blog for me to begin to explain how I would feel about this. Ho-Hum ACC Seeing Clemson beat Florida State left me with the feeling that Florida State’s defense was recruited from New Hampshire and Clemson can only compete for a conference title because they are in the ACC. Neither Wake Forest nor Boston College looked like a potential top 20. North Carolina State lost to UCF (not good for UofL’s ratings as they will play NC State in a few weeks). Heavy-hearted Virginia Tech only beat East Carolina 17-7. The ACC team that looked the best: Georgia Tech. Maybe, Notre Dame won’t be so bad. The more likely scenario is that the ACC is simply the worst BCS conference this year. Unforgettable Moment #1 Each college football regular season always leaves us with two or three moments that we remember forever. As time goes by, we can’t always put the moment with the correct year, but we never forget the moment itself. We got our first one for 2007 navy utah when Appalachian State upset Michigan in the â€ÜBig House.’ In no other sport at any level does home field advantage mean as much as it does in college football. Add to that the fact that this is the first 1-AA school to ever beat a ranked 1-A school and you have, in my opinion, the greatest sports upset since the US hockey team beat the Russians in the 1980 Winter Games. Of course, it won’t, and shouldn’t reach the stature of that upset. However, the blocked FG attempt on the game’s final play will be one moment football fans will remember forever. Just because I have to!!!! For those of you who want a playoff in 1-A, ask yourself this: Would the Appalachian State moment mean as much if we had a playoff in 1-A? The answer is no. If you don’t think so then you have 10 seconds to name the NAIA school that beat Ralph Sampson’s #1 ranked Virginia team in the early 80’s. You can’t do it can you. Because it was a regular season game and the tourney is all that matters in college hoops. You know and remember Cleveland State, Siena, Coppin State and Valparaiso. But, you can’t name the college basketball team that pulled the greatest upset ever in college hoops. I won’t write the schools portrait of suzanne bloch here because I would have to look it up, as well. In College Football we have a four month long tournament with fabulous moments along the way that are meaningful and resonate. That only happens for a three week period in basketball. What we have in college football is not broke and I wouldn’t want the next Flutie Miracle to mean any less. Point the pen (or keyboard) at yourself Since Michigan lost to Appalachian State many commentators and columnists have brought up the idea that Wolverines’ coach Lloyd Carr should be on the hot seat and/or lose his job. I just wonder how many of those talking heads or sportswriters contributed to Michigan being ranked #5 in the AP poll. Hmmmm. Maybe, we should look at the ballots, and any individual who had Michigan ranked as a top 10 team should lose their job as a commentator or writer for college football. At least, they should lose their AP vote if they paul thomas anderson are saying that Carr should be fired. I mean, how smart are these people to rank a team #5 that gets beat by a 1-AA school. Yes, the polls hold no validity early in the season, but if you want to go as far as to say a man needs to be fired then you should step up and admit that you were totally off base with your analysis of their team. If not, then you lose your validity as someone who should be judging and ranking teams, period….Just my two cents….. |

by zEke In current day Boston both Italian and Russian mafias do and cbs survivor at ease. Irish brothers Connor (Sean Patrick Flanery) and Murphy (Norman Reedus) McMannus decide that someone has to do something about it. Feeling that God has, not notting hill soundtrack given them the right, but asked them, to do it, they start their own divine cleaning. Meanwhile, FBI agent Paul Smecker (Willem Dafoe) investigates the crime scenes novasis the McMannus brothers leave after them. Even though the starting point promises a clever look into justice and truth, this never really happens. The movie gets away from the deepness of the issue and turns into an action feature filled with violence and blood. Nevertheless, the movie succeeds as a such because of the simplicity of the script and the appeal of the characters Christmas with the Kranks those lovers of the genre. Those who like the movie will forgive its weakest points, while those who dislike it will probably forget everything before sunset. Willem Defoes portrait of an FBI agent who is gay and both secretly admires and publicly chases the Saints, is probably the most remarkable thing of the movie. The rest of the cast is mediocre, which does not mean they are bad. Something that keeps bothering me is the caricaturization of gunmen in this kind of movies, that pretend to be somehow serious, far from what one might expect them to be. The Russian and Italian gangsters the McMannus brothers face off, are simply ridiculous. Now, I understand you do not need a degree to fight law and order, but between black and white there is a whole range of grays. the boondock saints supposed an at least promising debut for writer and director Troy Duffy, who also used to lead a band he named after the movie when it was first released. Unfortunately, let me doubt that, he has not tried again even though rumor has it that he has been working on the sequel. Biased reasons to that might be found in the documentary about the rise and fall of Troy Duffy overnight (2003), which was directed by his former friends Tony Montana and Mark Brian Smith.

Kitty Genovese was a New York City woman who was murdered in the early morning on March 13, 1964 by Winston Moseley.

NYPD refuses to return stolen property despite video documentation By Steve Watson In the latest attack on the first amendment, a shocking video has emerged of the NYPD attacking Way of the Vampire and stealing his camera and footage at a demonstration demanding justice for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire independent video journalist who was shot and killed earlier this year. The filmmaker, Flux Rostrum, was filming the interaction between protestors and police outside the Mexican Consulate in late October at a demonstration protesting the murder of journalist Brad Will, who was shot and killed on October 27, 2006 during the teachers strike in the Mexican city of Oaxaca. His murderers are believed to be local officials. Flux was not arrested, nor did he receive a leader of the band for seized property. Without any warning, he was jumped by two police officers, one of whom is an NYPD captain, and knocked down onto the asphalt of 39th Street. A police officer then snatched the camera out of Fluxs hands. As Flux attempted to protect himself and his equipment from being trampled and beaten, the cop with the camera conferred with another officer and scurried back into the building to hide the camera. Video of the events quite clearly shows the cop saying I want that camera before Flux is jumped and attacked. View the video below. When Flux attempted to get his camera back after the demonstration, he was threatened with arrest by a Lieutenant at the 17th Precinct. His lawyer was told that camera was found abandoned at the scene and that it had been turned over to the Manhattan District Attorneys office to be used as evidence against people arrested at the Mexican Consulate demonstration that day. In an email message sent to me by Flux he states: I would NOT have released the video below that details the incident from about 7 different camera angles if I thought others with a vested interest would not help spread the word. I am seeking to get the camera and footage back. I am seeking to punish them in any way possible in order to send the message that cops can no longer get away with smashing and stealing peoples cameras. Everyone who films in public needs to toss my case a little attention about now& it could make us all a little safer out there. The PD are using a variety of stall tactics and so weve decided to go public with this video in order to pressure them into admitting guilt muffuletta righting their wrongs. & But mostly so they think twice about doing this again. Camera smashing & stealing by the cops has become routine and hard as nails is a great opportunity to put a stop to it. The actions taken by the police in this video are indicative of the attitude of authorities towards peaceful protest in Back to the Future Part III today. They seek to make the demonstration violent simply as an excuse to break it up, we see this over and over again. Imagine what would happen to protestors if they reacted this way when police film them at demonstrations. Filming in public is a right every American citizen has under the first amendment, which is why the cops in this instance had to steal the camera and the footage, because there was no legal basis to seize it. It seems that filming and photographing is now deemed to be a threat per se. Pick from any number of stories archived at www.freedomtophotograph.com for example. In Seattle, police banned a photography student from a public park. He was taking photographs of a bridge for a homework assignment. The officers who ban him from the park do so without the knowledge of park officials Mio West, Il have no authority to do so. In Texas a man was first threatened by neighbors and then reportedly accosted and sprayed with pepper spray by police. He was walking around his neighborhood, filming with his new video camera. In New York, National Press Photographers Association members stage a protest in the New York subway system to bring attention to a proposed law to ban photography in the subway system. In Philadelphia a magazine photographer was detained and questioned after a parade for taking architectural shots while waiting for a subway train. In Harrisburg, PA a man was swarmed by 8 Police and accused of being a member of Al-Qaeda after shooting pictures of his new car under a bridge. We have recently exposed how some police now do not understand that they are violating the rights of individuals. In other cases we have witnessed police pull out pocket constitutions from cars and question their legality. Earlier this year journalist Greg Palast, whilst working for ABC, had charges brought against him by the Department of Homeland Security for videotaping the Elektra of Katrina evacuees still held behind a barbed wire in a trailer park encampment a hundred miles from New Orleans. The DHS deemed this to be unauthorized filming of critical infrastructure . After exposure in the alternative media, the charges were dropped. One would also hope that exposure of Fluxs case, in the context of other blatant attacks on freedom of speech and the right to assembly, will lead to a back down on the part of the NYPD.

Yet what I fail to understand is why it has to be used on the internet. Even when texting I use it only as a last resort, now that we have predictive texting I usually begin by attempting to write the message out in full using proper English, and only if the message cuts off, or I have more to add, do I then go back and alter parts into textspeak . Whats worse is that what was once textspeak is now netspeak , as if to apply the same shorthand from use on SMS, where it is logical to do so, to the internet, where it is not, john berg somehow just natural evolution. This is no minor issue either, its not all about good grammar or anything quite so snobby as that. I fear for a world where the netspeak generation actually run things because you can bet it will be a world where the shortcut will prevail. Forget road safety and having a safe working environment, because that would require doing things properly. No, instead expect a world where because everyone is taking a shortcut, people get hurt, or worse yet, die. Yes, you heard right people, netspeak costs lives. So if not for me, if not for yourself (and your own literacy), please, for the sake of humanity, cease being so lazy and actually try using the language skills youre blessed with. |

Alone again in the DL (distance learning) lab. It didnt take long for the phone to ring and someone that I had helped with podcasting in last Fridays workshop needed some general help with iTunes, Blackboard, and some other odds and ends. iTunes was a different animal. For some reason, the Dell she was working on wasnt allowing iTunes to operate properly. We did check for an iTunes upgrade, which was available. Once I had that installed with the latest version of QuickTime, everything worked. What was fun about helping Marjorie is that she (and I) enjoyed my visit. I found myself listening to stories about her kids and grandkids. She asked for some suggestions about Car Magazines for her 12 year old grandsons birthday (which I was easily able to do considering that muscle cars fall into my hobby catagory). Reflecting back to my 6040 class, I found that the Many Hats game about Instructional Designers was again accurate. You have to sometimes take on many roles other than just a designer to solve issues in instruction. |
