Book Review!: "The Caped Crusade: Batman and the Rise of Nerd Culture"
March 15, 2016 by Dave Leave a Comment
In the age of the internet (slightly fewer cullings than the Age of Apocalypse), there's an inversion of an old TV trope. Whereas we've all known the old "1,000 channels but nothing good on TV," we now have 1,000,000 tweeted articles, but nothing to read. As always, this is an overstatement, but the value of intelligent, witty, interesting articles increasingly stands out.
It's a joy to stumble upon (TM) that rare piece of literary finesse that reaffirms the joy of reading, and better yet, teaches you something.
It's even better when that "something" is Batman, and that's exactly what we have in Glen Weldon's "The Caped Crusade: Batman and the Rise of Nerd Culture ." The new book is equal parts history of the Bat, and informative, insightful, often humorous dig into fan reaction to the Bat-Man's many incarnations and rebirths.
Simply put, "The Caped Crusade" is the best book I've read this year. (Well, at least best book without pictures, but semantics.)
It's worth disclosing that Simon & Schuster sent me a review copy of "The Caped Crusade." While this often becomes a chore (I know, I know, comic book blogger problems), I found myself completely engrossed. At the expense of reading actual comics! Holy time management sacrifices, Batman!

At its best, "The Caped Crusade " is a thorough history of Batman, from his origins and influences all the way through Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo's New 52 Batman. Weldon deftly navigates both the comic book and pop culture appearances of Batman, exploring the reality that Batman wasn't always the uniformly golden ticket he is now for DC Comics.
What saves this book from the trappings of snoozy history is Weldon's keen eye for the big picture. Throughout each era of Batman's history in the comics, and later in television and film, Weldon smoothly shows how Batman ties into pop culture, society, and well, nerds at large. The end product is a thought provoking blend of the factual (Bob Kane took way too much credit for Batman's creation) and the provocative (Why all the 'Batman is gay' jokes?).
Weldon divides the world into nerds and normals, balancing his perspective appropriately between the two. The dive into "nerd culture" as promised by the subtitle is typically fascinating, if ultimately the most uneven portion of the book. Weldon makes a strong effort to chronicle fan reaction to the different phases of Batman, from Chuck Dixon's youthful outrage at the campy Batman of the 1960's ("That's not my Batman") to the less youthful outrage of every 90's early internet adopter during Joel "Nipples" Schumacher's Dark Reign.
The Bat-nerd chronicles are a welcome additional layer, if clearly supplemental to the thorough and well-researched history. In my view, the tales of the Bat-nerds become increasingly less compelling as they progress from self-published fanzines in the 60's to more modern hateful internet comments, but this could just be the power of nostalgia. The modern rise of nerd culture particularly suffers, as Weldon's analysis is confined to the realm of Batman, and the influence of the Nolan-verse Dark Knight Trilogy.
Speaking of the influence of the perceived Dark Knight (popularized most emphatically in Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns ), Weldon's core thesis seems to be that this Dark Knight is only one version of Batman. Sure, the brooding, strategic mastermind is the fan-favorite Batman of many, but Weldon makes a case for the value of the Adam West Batman '66 as well. To Weldon, "The Court of Owls " is what happens when Batman gets depressed; what's so wrong with the Batusi and a little bit of joy?
Weldon never commits quite as singularly, but "The Caped Crusade" reminds me a fair amount of Chuck Klosterman's "Fargo Rock City ." Both defend the indefensible with gusto ("Fargo Rock City"=80's Hair Metal, "The Caped Crusade"=Batman '66), albeit at a time when cultural perception has already started to accept that the "indefensible" is actually cool again, if still a mainstream joke. Weldon is hardly fighting for the right to enjoy Batman '66 without ridicule, but there's a clear perceived need to broaden our scope of Batman.
The best comparison I can make, though, is Fred Van Lente and Ryan Dunleavy's "The Comic Book History of Comics ." If you find comics (and in this case Batman) endlessly fascinating, this is a read worthy of the esteemed Caped Crusader himself.
The Caped Crusade: Batman and the Rise of Nerd Culture
At the end of the day, Glen Weldon's Batman history is highly addictive reading, with just the right blend of comic book history and nerd culture analysis. Fans of "The Comic Book History of Comics" will love this read.

Q: Delay appears when I am trying to register double click event on NSTableView I have NSTableView and NSView inside of this table using as cell. This NSView has 3 NSTextFields.
When I'm trying to select one of this NSTextFields they respond really quickly. But if I add some code to register double click event on NSTableView, delay appears. So when I click on textfield it thinks half a second and then activates it. But there is no such delay without double click event registered.
My code:
-(void)awakeFromNib{
    [tasksList setDoubleAction:@selector(doubleClickInTable:)];
    [tasksList setTarget:self];

}

-(void)doubleClickInTable:(id)sender
{
    //Don't matter, it can be empty.

Want to Move to Australia? Just Don't Bet on Sydney or Melbourne – Bloomberg
October 11, 2018 | Filed under: Australia	and tagged with: Australia, Australia Immigration
Morrison's government announces immigration restrictions plan
Backlash in cities over stressed transport infrastructure
New migrants wanting to settle in Australia may soon face a big condition on their stay: Sydney and Melbourne will be off limits.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison's government is in the early stages of drafting plans to force thousands of migrants to settle outside the nation's two largest cities. It's seeking to address concerns about rapid population growth and the impact on infrastructure ahead of an election that must be called by May.
The influx of immigrants that's equivalent to one person arriving in Australia every minute is causing a backlash in the biggest cities. While the flood of arrivals has swelled the population by 50 percent over the past three decades and underpinned economic growth, residents are frustrated that their quality of life has been compromised, with house prices too high, roads clogged and wages stagnant.
"We are working on measures to have more new arrivals go to the smaller states and regions and require them to be there for at least a few years," Population and Urban Infrastructure Minister Alan Tudge said in a speech Tuesday that announced elements of the new policy. "In that time, the evidence suggests that many will make it their home for the long term."
The measures may affect just under half of the total intake, specifically those not sponsored to work in a major city by companies or granted visas to join their families, he said. The government is also investigating faster rail links between big cities and regional centers.
"There clearly is a concentration of migration purely into Sydney and Melbourne," Steven Ciobo, a member of Morrison's cabinet, said in a Sky News interview on Tuesday. "We know that's putting immense pressure on a range of areas."
While governments from the U.S. to the U.K to Europe have clamped down on immigration, Australia has taken the opposite route: its permanent migration program welcomed almost 184,000 new arrivals in fiscal 2017.
Australia Adds One Person Per Minute as Population Angst Swells
Just over half of Australians think the total number of migrants coming to Australia each year is either "about right" or "too low," according to a Lowy Institute survey published in June 2017. Four in 10 said the number was too high.
Australia's so-called points system for assessing potential migrants sees skilled workers ranked by their need, and they must also pass health and character tests. Those becoming citizens must first pass an English-language quiz on the nation's constitution, history and values.
India is the biggest source of skilled migrants, comprising 21 percent in fiscal 2017, followed by China on 15 percent and the U.K. with 9 percent.

I just want to play with Sevin the surfing dog. Your IG feed is awesome.
I just want to be where Sevin is with my four cats. I'll even lug all my scuba gear over there.
Now that is some cool stuff there.
The cat and dog in the air may be one of the coolest cat and dog pics I've seen. Wow.
It was quite an interesting shoot to set up.
He guards the ducks too!!!!!!
My youngest greyhound, Merry, would like to make the acquaintance of those kitty cats!
Dude...that is a wonderful shot!
OK...looks like we have another new thread coming up.
Oh wow,I am impressed with all those photos.Beautiful pets.
Yes please! Who wouldn't love a dog photo thread?!? My dogs need to hang out with Sevin. Maybe some of his awesomeness will rub off on them!
Sevin would love to meet them and would be happy to give them some surf lessons.


Projects of all types and sizes can take advantage of the benefits of the Trimble Quantm technology. Examples range from regional, state and national transportation infrastructure planning to small bypasses and road realignments.
See all our customer stories and find out how Trimble Quantm has helped companies and governments in every corner of the world save time and money, and improve relationships with the communities they serve.
Quantm technology has been used worldwide for planning over 5,500km (3,417 miles) of high speed rail. See a complete list of Quantm high speed rail projects.
Quantm technology is used from preliminary scoping at a regional level to the development of full statewide transportation planning.
Quantm has helped planners find big cost savings on small road projects. The rapid generation of alternatives and the ability to determine environmental impacts are also valuable benefits for smaller projects.
The Quantm system was commissioned for application on more than 280 kilometers (175 miles) of open-access, heavy-haulage rail infrastructure for Fortescue Metals Group in Western Australia. Quantm enabled the Fortescue team to take a quantitative and iterative approach to planning the most cost-effective and desirable alignment of the railway, taking into consideration environmental impacts and maintenance costs. With the help of Quantm, Fortescue was able to complete the railway in only nine months.
High quality, efficient transportation infrastructure is key to supporting economic growth. In a rapidly changing world the application of the Quantm system is enabling nations around the world to efficiently plan for the modernization and addition of new national and regional infrastructure.
By using the Quantm system for planning, Quantm users are delivering better quality studies, addressing the social and environmental concerns associated with modernization and new infrastructure. The studies are completed with more accurate cost estimates and are delivered in a shorter time.
In China, Quantm has been successfully applied to over 8,000km (4,970 miles) of road and railway projects in China, from scoping studies and pre-feasibility studies to feasibility studies.
As the construction phase approaches, Quantm can be used to refine the alignment within a defined corridor or refine the vertical geometry to reduce earthworks and other construction costs.


CHAGRIN FALLS, Ohio, Jan. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- As athletes finalize preparations for the upcoming Olympic Games in Sochi, mental training will be important in providing a competitive edge. Certified Consultants of the Association for Applied Sport Psychology (AASP) are an important part of the behind the scenes team preparing athletes with mental skills that may prove to be as valuable as their physical skills in achieving their personal best performances far from home.
Sean McCann, an AASP Certified Consultant (CC-AASP), Past President, and Senior Sport Psychologist with the United States Olympic Committee (USOC), explains that mental preparation for Olympic athletes is a critical task and a special challenge for athletes. "Olympic pressure exposes any weaknesses in your mental game, and there are certain aspects of the Olympics that athletes never see during other competitions. Even athletes who are able to go to more than one Games are very different people four years later, and thus preparing for each Olympic Games is a custom work of anticipation, planning, active mental challenges to prepare for Olympic pressure, and trust in the plan. Sport psychologists help coaches and athletes execute all these tasks in the months and years leading up to the Games."
According to McCann, there are likely to be location-specific mental challenges for American athletes in Sochi such as competing far from home. Russian athletes will have the home-field advantage versus home-field pressure and athletes may need to manage changes if the variable weather delays events. Hear more from Sean McCann on factors that affect Olympic athletes in the video at http://youtu.be/DXjQHGDUQQ8.
McCann noted that there are a number of issues athletes may face both on and off the snow and ice. For example, Olympic performance issues that must be immediately dealt with, returning to action after an injury, distractions from life issues outside of sport, and handling the pressure of being a favorite.
Speed skater Patrick Meek has credited USOC sport psychologist Alex Cohen with providing him strategies to make his intense practice and competition schedules sustainable and mentally manageable.
In addition to the USOC's in-house team of sport psychologists, athletes preparing for Olympic competition can take advantage of a valuable referral service, the USOC Sport Psychology Registry, which was established in 1983. Sport psychologists listed on the USOC Registry have a doctoral degree in psychology or sport sciences and are an AASP Certified Consultant. According to Karen Cogan, USOC Senior Sport Psychologist, "When we get a request from an athlete, coach, or NGB (National Governing Board) for sport psychology services, I go to the Registry to find a provider in that area of the country. I also try to find a good fit in terms of expertise." Consultants may provide individual sport psychology consultations in person, over the phone, or via email, as well as group sessions.
For more information on sport psychology and mental training related to the Olympic Games, click here.
The Association for Applied Sport Psychology (AASP) promotes ethical practice, science and advocacy in sport and exercise psychology. Founded nearly 30 years ago, AASP is an international, multidisciplinary, professional organization that offers certification to qualified professionals. With more than 1,900 members in 47 countries, AASP is a worldwide leader and shares research and free resources for athletes, coaches and parents via www.appliedsportpsych.org. The online "Consultant Finder" helps locate a Certified Consultant to assist all levels and ages of athletes.

Video: Soldiers assault woman who resists as they weld her door shut
Ali Abunimah Rights and Accountability 15 September 2017
This video shows Israeli occupation forces violently assaulting and attempting to handcuff 55-year-old Zleikhah al-Muhtaseb in a family-owned building in the occupied West Bank city of Hebron.
Israeli forces invaded the home in order weld shut one of its two entrances, and Zleikhah tried to stop them.
Zleikhah's niece Rania al-Muhtaseb lives in the building with her husband Bassem and their three children.
The building has a back door towards Hebron's market, and a front entrance towards the Ibrahimi mosque.
The front entrance goes out into an area heavily controlled by Israeli occupation forces which family members cannot easily cross except by passing through military checkpoints.
Trapped by checkpoints
When the Israeli soldiers showed up at the house on 13 August, Rania called her aunt, one of the building's owners, who lives in Hebron's Old City.
"She arrived within half an hour," Rania told the human rights group B'Tselem. "The officers were trying to screw the door shut just as she came in. She went up to them and tried to stop them. She pressed herself against the door and held on to it. The female soldier tried to get her away from the door, but couldn't."
What happened next can be seen in the video above, filmed by Rania.
Israeli forces did eventually weld the door shut, causing the family considerable hardship.
"Before they welded the back door shut, I would go in and out of the house through the market," Bassem explained. "Now, I have to get home by walking on the rooftops of the houses near the market. It's dangerous at night, because the military watches the rooftops in the area."
The alternative is to go through one of the military checkpoints where Palestinians face long delays and routine harassment.
"On top of this, my wife is pregnant, and I'm worried she'll go into labor at night and we'll have to get to hospital," Bassem added, noting that occupation forces rarely agree to open the emergency gate in the checkpoint.
"The excuse provided by the security forces that the measure was needed to prevent 'suspects' from going through the house is unfounded and has no basis in reality," B'Tselem said.
"Even if there were any truth to it, it could not justify such severe harm to the al-Muhtaseb family," B'Tselem added. "This case is another example of Israel's policy of segregation and restrictions on Palestinian movement in central Hebron, coupled with abuse, violence and daily harassment by security forces and settlers."
As a result, life in the Old City of Hebron has become intolerable for Palestinians, and thousands have left the area – likely the intended goal of Israel's policies.
Several hundred Israeli settlers protected by the Israeli army live in the vicinity of the Ibrahimi mosque, in Hebron's Old City.
In 1994, an American Jewish settler from the nearby colony of Kiryat Arba massacred 29 Palestinians inside the mosque, which Muslims and Jews believe marks the spot where the bibilical prophet Abraham is buried.
Since then, Israel has attempted to consolidate its hold on the heart of the city with ever tighter restrictions on Palestinians, including segregated roads and violent settler takeovers of homes.
On Friday, Palestinians in Hebron marched after noon prayers to protest Israel's expansion of municipal services to the settlers in the Old City, a move Palestinians fear will further consolidate their grip.
According to the Ma'an News Agency, Israeli forces attacked the peaceful marchers with tear gas.

The settlers in Hebron (al-Khalil) are among the most pathological and vicious in the entire movement. Many are American followers of Rabbi Meir Kahane, the notorious racist demagogue. They seem to wield the power of command over soldiers stationed in the Palestinian neighborhoods, and they rule with an iron hand. As for the bandits captured in this video (but alas, not by forces of international justice), try to imagine the mentality of someone carrying out an order to seal residents' doors, forcing them to enter their own homes by clambering across rooftops. And then focus on the spectacle of these heroic defenders of Zion dragging a woman across the floor as she protests this barbaric abuse.
The ethnic cleansing of Jerusalem and Hebron has been put into motion at the express command of the Israeli government and with the full backing of the United States and the European Union. There's nothing clandestine or ambiguous about these crimes. They are carried out in full view of the world, each and every day. And that's why BDS is so vital in the struggle against this intolerable injustice- because those who could so easily make a difference refuse to do so.
Devoid of humanity
Permalink JayHobeSound replied on Mon, 09/18/2017 - 01:51
The Israeli government is devoid of humanity in the systemic mistreatment of Palestinians, but the government policies toward Palestinians destroys the soldiers' personal sense of humanity. The poisoned minds of the soldiers returning to Israeli society is a cancer spreading one at a time. There is no amount of military or police security to protect a society from internal destruction.

This video shows how the IDF treats the Palestinians on a dailly bases.I hope this video goes viral so that Zionist jews and Israeli supporters know what they are funding and American politicians need to see this to see how their funding is helping Israel commit daily crimes against the Palestinians
In the Westbank soldiers are not allowed to deal with extremist, Zionist ,religious jews,they come under Israeli civil law i.e police..while Palestinians come under harsh military rule.The Westbank is the israel's open air prison supported and aided economically and diplomatically by the West...Where i live the UK the Prime Minister is a staunch ally of Israel and its crimes.She passed a special law so that no Israeli politician can be arrested and tried in a British court for Human Rights abuses

Although Wi-Fi law is still largely suspicious mugs iphone case unsettled in the United States and Canada, people who run open Wi-Fi hubs could conceivably be held accountable for activities carried out on their networks by unauthorized users, according to Joseph Burton, an attorney with law firm Duane Morris, "Is it possible a home owner can be liable for a lack of security on a wireless network? Yes, if they are negligent in setting up security," Burton said, Security experts have long known that unauthorized users could hijack open wireless Internet connections in order to mask their online activities, with some offering dire warnings that open Wi-Fi hot spots could abet terrorism, So far, there's little evidence to show how much and what kind of abuse is taking place, But security experts say a surprisingly high number of consumers choose not to activate security protocols on their wireless networks, meaning the opportunity clearly exists..
That could pose a legal risk if someone were to suffer damages as a result of activities conducted on an open Wi-Fi hub, Burton said. Individuals that gain unauthorized access to a wireless network that's providing a broadband connection can not only download illegal material, but they could also use a hijacked network to launch spam, distribute a virus or steal data from resources on the network. In all these case, it would look like the owner of the connection had performed the acts. That may not be enough to trigger liability, counter other legal experts, who note that the law is still largely unformed. Internet service providers in the United States have long enjoyed some protection from lawsuits related to the activities of their customers, and courts might extend that same principle to cover Wi-Fi providers. Still, the providers might find themselves on the wrong side of the law in some cases--for example, if they refuse to secure their network after repeated attacks.
According to research by the WorldWide WarDrive, more than two-thirds of the roughly 88,100 access points found by war drivers around the globe this year did not have basic security settings activated, Wi-Fi users need to do more than simply turn on their security settings to protect themselves, Wi-Fi uses Wired Equivalent Privacy as its default security protocol, WEP is widely recognized as being easily broken, leading industry groups to develop alternatives, A new security standard known as 802.11i is expected to suspicious mugs iphone case be finalized around the middle of next year, bringing stronger encryption to keep eavesdroppers from snagging passwords and other sensitive data exchanged between a remote computer and a Wi-Fi base station..
In the meantime, standards groups are backing an interim security protocol known as Wi-Fi Protected Access to replace WEP, offering improved encryption and authentication. Since September, products certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance for interoperability must include WPA, and so far 80 products have been certified. Upgrades for products already in homes are available from most manufacturers' Web sites. Who's liable?Beefing up Wi-Fi security is a top priority for the industry. Wi-Fi case law is not developed enough to clearly support negligence claims, according to Burton, but businesses are already bracing for a day when they might be found liable for Wi-Fi security breaches.

Schools should be drug free zones - Crowe
Sinn Féin spokesperson on Education Seán Crowe TD today called for the introduction of a specific offence around the dealing or storing of drugs in designated areas such as schools or youth clubs, where young people are being targeted and that schools should be drug free zones.
Speaking after a sizeable amount of cocaine was seized in a south-side schoolyard the Tallaght based TD said, "The seizure of €200,000 worth of cocaine in a Dún Laoghaire schoolyard shows that there are no depths to which dealers will descend in their pursuit of hard cash. This drugs seizure is timely in that it the quantity and availability of cocaine throughout the country and particularly in Dublin communities. This cases also highlights the need for a new offence to be introduced to deal specifically with the targeting, by drug dealers, of school children. Schools and other places where children gather should be drug free zones.
"In many other jurisdictions where drug dealers are found in the vicinity schools they face stiffer sentences. Drugs and particularly cocaine are now rampant in many communities. Society needs to respond to this new theat.
"Many of these communities are still trying to overcome the ravages of the heroin epidemic of the eighties now face a new menace; cocaine and crack cocaine. This is new territory. In the light of this seizure I am calling on the Justice Minister Michael McDowell to introduce new measures to deal with this growing problem and insure that schools are drug free zones." ENDS

I'm a big fan of rituals, hence this sunrise project, but it's more than just a repetition of actions. It's a mental exercise. Sometimes rituals are hard — they really make you think and reflect deeply on yourself and the world. Other times it's silly, childlike, and fun, unlocking a small moment of joy from within. At the bar this month, I've been having everyone write down something they're thankful for on fall-colored leaves, which I then stick up around the bar for everyone to read. Sometimes they're silly (a lot of people are unsurprisingly grateful for beer) but many are quite personal and sincere. It's sparked many a conversation with people and leaves (get it?) most of us feeling a little bit better about life. On the other hand, the bar interior gets pretty humid when it's closed up so the bartenders have to pick up all the leaves that have fallen off the walls during the night. Our ritual has been experiencing the literal falling of leaves every morning, that we have to collect and redistribute. (Thanks, bar friends.)
The sunrise today in Kihei, Maui was at 6:40am on the 22nd of November, 2022.

STRONG STATEMENT - Local artist and instructor at Red Deer College Robin Lambert stands with his sculpture 'These Dreams You Have, Storys You Tell, Partys You Throw, Part II' (deliberately misspelled to convey an intoxicated narrator) made of porcelain are on display in his exhibit 'Because it never occurs to us we can't' at Red Deer Museum + Gallery until March 18th.

Central Alberta artist explores the cycles of Alberta through sculpture
Robin Lambert's commentary on the province's fragility is on at the MAG until March 18th
Michelle Falk
Artist and Red Deer College instructor Robin Lambert explores the socio-economic landscape of Alberta through mixed-medium sculptures in his latest exhibit 'Because it never occurs to us that we cannot' now on display at the Red Deer Museum + Gallery until until March 18th.
"It's talking about the cycles that we get caught up in, here in Alberta—that boom/bust," Lambert said.
The show explores themes surrounding the pioneering spirit of Alberta and the benefits and downfalls of this cultural outlook.
Lambert's sculptures are primarily made out of porcelain, wood and thread.
They visually depict the delicacy of the province's current climate by juxtaposing fragile ceramics with industrial imagery.
Lambert creates towering sculptures intended to look like poorly-constructed, dilapidated grain elevators and utility line towers, that are quintessentially Albertan to make viewers think about the province's history of innovation and enthusiasm for development through construction.
"The title of the show is a paraphrase of a quote talking about the DNA of Alberta," Lambert explained.
He said the spirit of Alberta is what allows us to can live in a part of the world that's -30C in the winter and can be +30C in the summer, but that same spirit has caused us problems, too.
"We have some difficulties, you could say, with the people who were here before us," Lambert said.
Adding that he believes Albertans will likely cause problems for future generations if things continue on the current trajectory.
"It's a wonderful energetic idea (this pioneering spirit) but if you don't consider your actions from the past and in the present, how are you going to know how things are going to come about in the future?"
Most of the sculptures give a sense of being in a state of falling apart and being repaired.
Red thread is used to hold works together and conjure a sense of the cycle of wounding and healing.
"From my point of view, it's pretty hard to deny that we are pioneering and enterprising, but we're also a colonizing and oppressing people and they kind of go hand-in-hand," he said.
The artist said he does not intend for the exhibition to be a commentary on whether this spirit of Alberta is a positive or negative thing.
Rather he intends to create awareness of it and its effects.
"This is a thing that is happening and we need to address it or things are going to continue to fall apart," he said.
He notes that these cycles exist both on a provincial level and an individual one. "There is a stereotype in Alberta of people who live paycheque to paycheque, and 'the party' goes on and on— this attitude perpetuates the boom/bust cycle on a micro level as well as a provincial, national and international level," Lambert said.
One piece in the exhibit, titled 'These Dreams You Have, Storys You Tell, Partys You Throw, Part II' (according to Lambert the title is deliberately spelled incorrectly, to convey the idea of a drunk narrator) has faded colours on a birthday-style banner indicating that every party fades with time.
The banner is made of highly-crafted porcelain triangles, intended to look like bunting seen at a child's party.
The piece conveys a sense of tragedy through the heaviness of each ceramic wedge nailed to the wall and glazed in a dull, grey-green colour. There is a permanence to the banner that a paper banner doesn't have, as if to say, the party can't last forever, Alberta.
The exhibit is on now until March 18th at the Red Deer Museum + Gallery.

Baton (law enforcement)
Blackjack is a video game cartridge developed by Atari, Inc. for its Video Computer System (later known as the Atari 2600). The game was one of the nine launch titles available when the Atari 2600 went on sale in September 1977.
The game is a video simulation of blackjack. The objective is identical to the card game: to beat the dealer's card total, without going over 21, to win a bet. One to three players played the computer dealer in the game.
This game employs a variant of blackjack rules that is so extremely unfavorable to the player, that it would almost certainly never be seen in a real casino because no one would play with them. Splitting pairs is not allowed, and even more substantially, draws are won by the dealer (your bet is not returned to you if you and the dealer get the same card total and neither busts). This represents over a 10% house advantage. The player uses the paddle controller to enter a bet of up to 25 chips from an initial pot of 200. An up card is then presented, and the player decides whether to "hit" (accept another card) or stand. The player breaks the bank by obtaining a score of 1,000 chips, or is "busted" upon losing everything.

The Transformers (トランスフォーマー, Toransufomā) is a line of toys produced by the Japanese company Takara (now known as Takara Tomy) and American toy company Hasbro. The Transformers toyline was created from toy molds mostly produced by Japanese company Takara in the toylines Diaclone and Microman. Other toy molds from other companies such as Bandai were used as well. In 1984, Hasbro bought the distribution rights to the molds and rebranded them as the Transformers for distribution in North America. Hasbro would go on to buy the entire toy line from Takara, giving them sole ownership of the Transformers toy-line, branding rights, and copyrights, while in exchange, Takara was given the rights to produce the toys and the rights to distribute them in the Japanese market. The premise behind the Transformers toyline is that an individual toy's parts can be shifted about to change it from a vehicle, a device, or an animal, to a robot action figure and back again. The taglines "More Than Meets The Eye" and "Robots In Disguise" reflect this ability.

Blackjack was an American rock band, active 1979–1980, featuring Michael Bolton (who was performing under his real name, Michael Bolotin), Bruce Kulick, Sandy Gennaro and Jimmy Haslip. The band was short-lived, released two albums, the self-titled Blackjack in 1979 and Worlds Apart in 1980, and embarked on a small US nationwide tour.
Blackjack was formed in late 1978 after Bruce Kulick had come off the road touring with Meat Loaf behind the Bat Out of Hell album. Kulick and his older brother Bob had done a show backing up Michael Bolotin, then a solo artist with two albums, at a club show in Connecticut. Afterwards both Kulick brothers were invited to join Bolotin in a proper band. While Bob declined, Bruce accepted and became the main songwriter alongside Bolotin in the as-of-yet unnamed new venture. The band's manager Steve Weiss, also an attorney for Led Zeppelin, brought drummer Sandy Gennaro and bassist Jimmy Haslip into the fold to complete the line-up.

A baton or truncheon (also called a cosh, billystick, billy club, nightstick, sap, blackjack, stick) is essentially a club of less than arm's length made of wood, rubber, plastic or metal. They are carried for forced compliance and self-defense by law-enforcement officers, correctional staff, security-industry employees and (less often) military personnel. Other uses for truncheons and batons include crowd control or the dispersal of belligerent or non-compliant people.
A truncheon or baton may be used to strike, jab, block, bludgeon and aid in the application of armlocks. The usual striking or bludgeoning action is not produced by a simple and direct hit, as with an ordinary blunt object, but rather by bringing the arm down sharply while allowing the truncheon to pivot nearly freely forward and downward, so moving its tip much faster than its handle – effectively a slingshot action, only without releasing. Sometimes, they also are employed as weapons by criminals and other law-breakers because of their easy concealment. As a consequence, they are illegal for non-authorized civilian use in many jurisdictions around the world. They have a common role to play, too, in the rescuing of trapped individuals—for instance, people caught in blazing cars or buildings—by smashing windows or even doors.

The Cadillac XTS is as beautiful a sedan as Caddy's made in the last 20 years.
The XTS is hot. And we don't mean stolen.
Edmunds.com reports that the gorgeous, ferocious-looking all-new Cadillac XTS was one of two fastest-selling rides in June. As judged by a week driving it around New York City, Long Island and spots in between, you'd think this thing was an Olympic athlete by the number of folks taking its photo when I parked it or stopped at red lights.
And why shouldn't they? It's as beautiful a sedan as Caddy's made in the last 20 years, with a predatory, authoritative hood, mighty-mighty flanks and a luxe flavor worthy of the badge. With the Lincoln Town car having given up the ghost and Cadillac's own DTS and STS discontinued, the time was ripe for introducing a new sedan that bests all previous contenders, and this is it.
Available in all-wheel or front-wheel drive, the XTS features a 6-speed automatic transmission with steering wheel shift controls mated to a 3.6 litre, V-6. That's not very much engine for this car, especially given its weight of 4,000 pounds and change, and I felt the lack of power when trying to pass or to maneuver around tight situations. Lincoln's new MKS sedan, which I tested right after the XTS, has way more get-up-and-go. (My MKS review will appear next week.) XTS mileage, too, is a just-ok 20 MPG city, less on the highway.
But the XTS's manners otherwise are everything you want and need in your sedan - nothing grabby, nothing abrupt, wheels go where you point them, brakes stop you when you step on the pedal, ride cushy, smooth and all Caddy, and it was pure pleasure to tool around in.
Now, about that CUE system - Cadillac's center console unit consisting of Nav system, sound system, climate control and a few more doo-dads.
There's been a lot of stink in print, and rightly so, about the system's difficulty of use. While the CUE and I didn't instantly bond, and it's slow as molasses when you're trying to program the nav system, I did get used to it and found a logic in its workings, although I never did stop bashing the volume control up or down whenever I wanted to adjust something on it. You'll just have to train yourself to hit the bullseye with your index finger.
XTS prices start at $44,075, and my tester had a base price of $55,810, $57,725 loaded. That's not cheap, but nothing that looks this good needs to be.

Rogne drops Celtic exit hint
Thomas Rogne has hinted he might leave Celtic when his contract expires at the end of the season.
The Norwegian defender, who joined Celtic in 2010 from Stabaek, turned down the club's offer of a new deal in February.
The 22-year-old expressed his frustration at his lack of regular first-team football with the likes of Kelvin Wilson, Efe Ambrose and Charlie Mulgrew all ahead of him in Neil Lennon's pecking order.
Rogne is not keen to discuss his long-term future, but admits he will use this summer's European Under 21s Championship as the chance to put himself in the shop window.
"That is not something I want to talk about," Rogne told VG when asked about his contract situation.
"The last time we talked about an extention of the contract was one year ago.
"Then, we didn't reach an agreement about something.
"That is not a problem for me. I am concentrating on playing football and we got a European Championship coming up and I look forward to that.
"There are many good teams, good players and many clubs in the stands. If you play and convince them, doors can open for you."
Rogne admits he is unsure why he has found himself out of the first-team picture this season.
"I don't know why it has turned out like this and I am not satisfied with the lack of playing time," added Rogne.
"But I just got to work with myself and see what I can do better. It is a matter of delivering the goods all the time."

Wildcat Athlete of the Week: Megan Pohlmann '17
Senior thrower Megan Pohlmann recorded an impressive weekend of performances with a javelin win at the Janis Rider Classic and a 10th place finish at the Drake Relays. She's currently ranked third in the MIAC in javelin (41.46m) and twelfth in hammer (41.26m). Photo by Michelle Perri '18
Categories: Athletics, Students
The St. Catherine University track and field team had another outstanding weekend, filled with more personal record (PR) performances and individuals cracking the top-10 all-time lists. However, no one had a better weekend than senior thrower Megan Pohlmann (Grey Eagle, Minn. / Long Prairie-Grey Eagle). The senior put together two of her best performances of the season in javelin and hammer in less than 24 hours, despite long drives and poor weather conditions, earning Pohlmann Wildcat Athlete-of-the-Week honors.
Pohlmann's whirlwind weekend started on Friday when she competed at the Drake Relays in Des Moines, Iowa. The senior became the first Wildcat to qualify and compete at the meet since 2010 and certainly impressed with a 10th place finish in javelin amongst a field of Division I, II and III student-athletes. Pohlmann's throw of 39.23 meters just missed qualifying for finals and allowed the senior to finish in tenth place overall.
Less than 12 hours later, she followed up an impressive performance at Drake with a win in javelin at the Janis Rider Classic. The senior threw the spear 41.46 meters, which ranks No. 13 in all Division III, to win the event by over a meter. In addition to being the No. 13 throw in the country, it's also Pohlmann's furthest throw of 2017 and allowed her to win javelin for the third consecutive week, having won at both the St. Olaf and Gustavus meets this month.
Pohlmann also competed in hammer throw at the Janis Rider Classic. She carded a PR throw of 41.26 meters to finish in sixth place. Pohlmann currently ranks third in the MIAC in javelin (41.46m) and twelfth in hammer (41.26m).

Do love and diet even go in the same sentence? For a lot of people dieting is the bane of their life, but they have to do it if they want to change their ways and get healthy. A lot of people actually like dieting, weirdly enough. It does bring about so many health benefits, and since we live in an era that is surrounded by so many saturated fats and sugars, we really need to be considering these health benefits. Yes, giving up your beloved junk food is one of the hardest things you'll ever do. Giving up alcohol is also one of the hardest things, but a lot of diets do actually require this, yet so many people struggle with it. But, if you have the determination and the right mindset to do it, then here are some of the best diets that 2017 has blessed us with.
The ketosis diet to a lot of people seems like a risky game. But if you do it properly it actually has more health benefits than it does risks. It is basically done by going on an extremely low carb diet. A lot of people cut out carbs altogether. When your body doesn't have enough energy from the normal sources such as carbohydrates, it starts to use the fat stores within your body to get the energy it needs. Before you know it you're rapidly dropping the pounds. It is a really effective method to use, but it does have the ability to make you pretty ill if you don't treat your body right in other ways. Such a rapid carb drop will definitely make you feel nasty, so the best thing you can do is drop it gradually until you're at a minimum level of carb intake per week. There are products out there such as the ones from KetoMCT that supplement the diet with some of the vitamins and minerals that may be lost from dropping so many carbs. These are the supplements that are going to keep you feeling healthy whilst you're taking such a drop in carbs. This diet is really popular with the celebs, and if you do it properly there's no way you won't notice improvements. Just make sure you follow the online guides and don't push yourself too fast to begin with.
This is definitely one of the most popular diets out there, it has a lot of health benefits for the people using it. It was designed to cut out all the processed and sugary foods that are now so present in our diet. It focuses on only eating grass fed meats, eggs, seeds and fruits and vegetables. No processed foods and sugars or salts are allowed whatsoever. But it is these foods that are so prominents in our diet. This is why so many people find it incredibly hard to do this diet, or at least stick to it for longer than two weeks. Even alcohol would have to go. It basically works on the premise that you can only eat what our caveman ancestors would have been able to forage from the ground around them. So anything man made has to go. But, the best thing about this diet is the energy it gives you. One of the reasons we're always so fatigued, and our minds are always so clogged up is due to the food we're putting inside our body. Sticking to things that are all natural is only going to do good for us. There's still plenty of recipes out there that support the paleo diet. One big thing however is you will have to make sure you're going dairy free. But, just like with the keto diet, you will start to notice results pretty fast. You might not notice any physical weight loss as fast as you would with keto, that's one of the reasons why that is so popular. But you will quickly notice a difference in your mood and your energy levels, which to some people is a bigger bonus than the actual weight loss side of things.
The atkins diet has been around for a long time. It definitely isn't as popular as the other two diets, but it does have the same amount of health benefits, and gives you the ability to drop the pounds in no time. It is really similar to the ketosis diet, but it isn't really as demanding on your body. It is done in more of a stage sort of process. Phase one involves going through the ketosis stage that you would in the actual ketosis diet. They recommend only eating around 20g of carbs a day. But the have to be vegetarian carbs, not your average carbs like white or brown pasta. Then phase two reintroduces the foods you weren't allowed to eat, e.g. every single carb known to man. You do this slowly until you learn what your body can take before it starts putting on weight through carbs again. Phase three is usually moved to when you have the last few pounds of your weight loss goal to lose. A lot of people drop their carbs again just a little before bringing them back up again for phase four. Phase four is the end phase, and is what you should be able to stay at for the rest of your life. This is where the atkins diet varies from the ketosis. Ketosis allows you to stay carb free, the atkins encourages to introduction of carbs back into the diet really early on in the process. As we said, it is a lot less strenuous on the body compared to ketosis. But ketosis gives you better results for longer, and once your body learns to live without the carbs that have been fuelling it, you're reborn as a new person.
So there are three of the most popular diets we've seen this year. They've all been around for awhile, but it has only been this year where they all seem to have risen in popularity.
