Ezra Levant Says Trudeau in Cahoots With George Soros on Banning Islamophobia
Justin Trudeau's government is forcing through a Parliamentary motion, M-103, that proposes a "whole of government" ban on Islamophobia.
Every part of the government — from the CBC, to the RCMP, to the Canada Revenue Agency, to the Canada Border Services Agency — will work on "eliminating" Islamophobia, a term they never define.
In effect, it will mean anyone who criticizes Islam itself, or mass Muslim immigration, or the slow creep of sharia law in our schools and courts and public institutions. Take my word for it — I was prosecuted for 900 days for daring to publish the Danish cartoons of Mohammed back in 2006. And that was even before this Islamophobia ban was proposed.
So, who's behind it all? Who's financing it?
Well, it's no secret. Last September, Justin Trudeau put out a press release bragging about it.
George Soros, the U.S. billionaire.
Here — see for yourself:
Justin Trudeau has outsourced Canadian public policy to a far-left, New York billionaire. They're threatening our freedom of speech.
That's un-Canadian.
Please click here to sign our petition against M-103, and add your name to the tens of thousands of Canadians who refuse to live under sharia-style censorship.

The Latest Thought Criminal: Timothy Sullivan, a Teacher Who Questions Vaccination
Political correctness and a hysterical response to dissent has marked the post 9/11 world and the rise alternative populist interpretations. Whatever you believe about vaccinations, the treatment of Ontario science teacher Timothy Sullivan is scandalous!
Notice the vacuous word "inappropriate" used to describe Mr. Sullivan's conduct — warning students that vaccines can be dangerous.
He has already been suspended for a day without pay and could face a suspension of his teaching certificate for a month during which time he couldn't legally teach — in effect a further month without pay and, of course, off to political re-education camp, if the prosecution gets its way, "courses on appropriate professional boundaries, ethics and anger management." (Globe and Mail February 21, 2017)
When Mr. Sullivan warned the high school students lining up for vaccination that the process involved risks, nurse Angela Swick "said the situation at the school was 'unsafe' for the students and the public-health nurses, and the nursing staff felt 'intimidated and scared.'"
This instant drama and feeling "unsafe" should anyone seriously dissent from the conventional is sadly becoming more and more commonplace in a Canada increasingly wimpified and feminized.
Ontario teacher to face penalty for anti-vaccine comments
Open this photo in gallery: An Ontario science teacher was found guilty of professional misconduct for telling students that vaccinations could lead to death, disrupting a clinic in a high school and suggesting public-health nurses were withholding information on vaccines from teenagers.
Timothy Sullivan, a teacher in Waterford, Ont., argued that he was concerned that students were not being properly informed of the negative side effects of vaccines and yet were required to give consent.
But Ravi Vethamany, chair of a three-member independent disciplinary committee of the Ontario College of Teachers, said on Wednesday that Mr. Sullivan committed professional misconduct.
The panel will decide on a penalty in March. The hearing came to end when Mr. Sullivan abruptly walked out after the decision was made, and as counsel for the college was making submissions on what the penalty should be. Christine Wadsworth, a lawyer for the College, recommended a reprimand, that Mr. Sullivan's teaching certificate be suspended for one month, and that he attends courses on appropriate professional boundaries, ethics and anger management.
In the two-day hearing, Ms. Wadsworth said Mr. Sullivan's personal opinion on vaccines affected his ability to professionally conduct himself in the school.
"It's not Mr. Sullivan's place to be an activist at the school on the topic of vaccines," she told the hearing earlier on Wednesday. "He did not act as a role model that day. He did not model appropriate behaviour for his students and he did not treat visitors, who were legally authorized to be at the school, with respect."
The incident occurred in March, 2015, when public-health nurses were running an immunization clinic in the cafeteria at Mr. Sullivan's school.
Ontario requires students to provide proof of immunization to attend school. Parents can get exemptions for their children on medical grounds, such as an allergy or a weakened immune system, or if they fill out a form stating they object to immunization.
Angela Swick, a public-health nurse in the Haldimand-Norfolk Health Unit, told the hearing on Tuesday that Mr. Sullivan came by the clinic three times. Ms. Swick said the teacher's demeanour left her uncomfortable and nervous, and she contacted her supervisor and the school principal. One set of doors to the cafeteria was subsequently locked.
At one point, Ms. Swick said, Mr. Sullivan asked students in line if they knew what was in the vaccines and "shouted at them not to get it." She said the situation at the school was "unsafe" for the students and the public-health nurses, and the nursing staff felt "intimidated and scared."
Mr. Sullivan was suspended from his job without pay for one day in 2015 after the incident.
Mr. Sullivan, a teacher for 17 years at the Grand Erie District School Board in southwestern Ontario, told the hearing on Wednesday he did not intend to intimidate the nurses or make those at the school feel uncomfortable.
He said that public-health staff do not inform students about the risk from vaccines of death and the rare neurological condition Guillane-Barré syndrome.
But the hearing was told nurses use screening tools to assess whether any underlying conditions would trigger a more serious reaction in a student. Students and their parents are told about the most common risks, such as a fever or a sore arm.
Mr. Sullivan said he was asking the health-unit staff about their practice, and was also trying to inform students at the school about the contents of the vaccines and the side effects.
"It was probably one of the most professional things that I did, actually," Mr. Sullivan said.
The name of Mr. Sullivan's school is covered by a publication ban to protect the identity of the students.

WARMAN IS AT IT AGAIN: COMPLAINS TO FACEBOOK & GETS ANTI-MOSLEM PAGES TAKEN DOWN
If you want to express a political or religious opinion on Facebook, you'd better run it by Richard Warman, who does something or other in the Department of National Defence. A chronic complainer under Sec. 13 (now repealed) of the notorious Canadian Human Rights Act, he damaged dozens of people's lives — people who had views he deemed hate. Then, if you criticized him, he was likely to slap you with a libel suit. When his Sec. 13 toy was taken away, he switched to other methods of policing thought in Canada. A recent target was the zany, satirical newspaper YOUR WARD NEWS.
Now, he's after Facebook pages that are critical of Islam. Criticism of privileged minorities is, among the politically correct, "hate">
Facebook has removed some of these pages. That's not surprising. Facebook President Mark Zukerberg is a fervent Zionist and did a deal with German thought control freak Angela Merkel to suppress German immigration critics expressing their views on Facebook.
The National Post (February 21,2017) reports: "A half-dozen Facebook pages were offline Tuesday following a complaint by Ottawa lawyer Richard Warman, who had raised concerns they were engaged in hate speech against Muslims. Among them was "Canadians Against Islamization." Banners bearing the same name were displayed by protesters at a small anti-Muslim demonstration Friday outside a downtown Toronto mosque.
'It only takes a 30 second Google search to confirm why most of these individuals and groups are a problem in relation to hate speech,' Warman said. 'Hate speech has no place in Canada.'"
Notice, the victims got no trial or right of response. And what is 'hate spech'? Why it's speech some privileged minority hates.
Warman, who has long battled far right websites, had sent a list of suspected Canadian anti-Muslim pages to Facebook following the Quebec City mosque attack that left six worshippers dead.
Facebook has 'taken action on those that qualify as hate speech,' a company spokeswoman said Tuesday. While some of the pages were removed, others remained up but specific posts were deleted.
Six of the 22 Facebook links in Warman's complaint were no longer online, among them the Cultural Action Party, Canadians Against Justin Trudeau and Soldiers of Odin – Ontario South.
'The reason I forwarded the list of Facebook profiles to their management in Canada is because they had been reported to me with concerns about hate speech,' Warman said." [Who reported them? Was Warman's complaint written on his own time?]
"According to Facebook's community standards code, the company removes content that 'directly attacks' people based on their race, religion, sex or sexual orientation.
'Organizations and people dedicated to promoting hatred against these protected groups are not allowed a presence on Facebook,' it reads. 'As with all of our standards, we rely on our community to report this content to us.' But most of the links Warman had complained about were not taken down, despite having provocative names such as the Worldwide Coalition Against Islam and the Canadian Anti Islamic Force.
Canadian Facebook pages down following complaint they were anti-Muslim, possibly related to Toronto protest

Posted on February 21, 2017 by CFIRC
Attention Immigration Reformer:
(1) PLEASE HELP US TO GET MORE SIGNATURES FOR THE FREE SPEECH PETITION. As of Monday, Feb. 20, that petition had about 22,600 signatures. Thank you for your help. This significant figure has been noticed by the political class, particularly the Conservatives who are scrambling to recognize the indignation of Canadians, but still haven't got the guts to deal with the root problem WHICH IS UNNECESSARY HIGH IMMIGRATION . We need more signatures to convince them. Please help to get other people to sign. Again, here is a link to the petition : https://www.ipetitions.com/petition/protecting-canadian-free-speeech-rights-from
(2) PLEASE SEND IQRA KHALID an e-mail. Here is her e-mail address : iqra.khalid@parl.gc.ca If you want to phone her offices, here are her phone numbers : 905-820-8814 (her office in Mississauga) or 613-995-7321 (her office in Ottawa).She is the Muslim woman who wrote the motion. Like many of her fellow Muslims and other visible minorities, she is arrogant and contemptuous of Canada. She and they deserve the contempt of Canada's majority population and all other decent Canadians. BE BLUNT. Don't phone to debate with the person who answers your call. You know what they think. She, other Muslim MP's and Muslim organizations across Canada want to re-make Canada in the image of the failed states where they originated..
Canadian Association for Free Expression Protest at Iqra Khalid's Office — Paul Fromm (back to the camera) slides letter of protest into shut office door.
(3) PLEASE CONTACT TRUDEAU'S OFFICE Here is his e-mail address : justin.trudeau@parl.gc.ca When Khalid's motion is voted on in April, it is probable that the Liberal MP's will approve it. Furthermore, Sikh Liberal MP Grewal has already hinted that other measures like Khalid's are coming. To prevent all of this from happening, here is our suggestion : Tell Trudeau to dump her motion and to expel Khalid from the Liberal Caucus. Leave a phone message at Justin Trudeau's office in Ottawa : 1-613-995-0253 or at his Montreal office 1-514-277-6020 His Fax number is 1-613-947-0310
(4) PLEASE SEND AN E-MAIL TO YOUR MP. Many MP's are cowardly and treacherous on all immigration-related issues. HELP THEM TO STAND UP FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THEIR LIVES. When Parliament votes on Iqra's motion in April, TELL THEM TO DEFEND CANADA AND VOTE "NO"Dan Murray

The Canadian Association for Free Expression will hold a protest outside the Mississauga Constituency Office of Member of Parliament Iqra Khalid (Mississauga -Erin Mills) to protest her introduction of Motion M-103. The protest will take place at 2:00 p.m., Monday, February 20, 2017 at 3,100 Ridgeway Drive (Suite 35) in Mississauga. "Miss Khalid, who has disturbing ties to Moslem extremist groups like the Moslem Brotherhood is trying to sneak a motion through Parliament which will pave the way for more restrictions of freedom of speech," says Paul Fromm, Director of CAFE. Motion M-103 "condemns Islamophobia and all forms of systemic racism" and calls on the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage Committee to study and report back within 240 days on ways to reduce or eliminate "systemic racism … and Islamophobia. "While the motion is not legislation, it sets the ground work for introduction of restrictions on freedom of speech," Mr. Fromm warns. "Islamophobia is not defined," he adds. "Literally meaning fear of or aversion to Moslems, it is worrisomely vague. Is criticism of radical Moslem terrorists Islamophobia? Is criticism of Moslem demands for special treatment — wearing niqabs, burkas, for instance, — Islamophobia?" "We shouldn't have to fret or wonder whether a comment we make will be considered Islamophobic," he insists. "Free speech is not negotiable. Canadians should be free to criticize the tenets of any religion or to reject the behaviour of some members of that faith. There is nothing wrong with Islamophobia. Since 9/11,adherents of that faith have killed hundreds of people in Europe in the name of their religion. Moslems have repeatedly invaded Europe over the past 1200 years and Moslem pirates raided the shores of Southern Europe well into the 19th century kidnapping Europeans for sex slavery or ransom. A sensible person may well have reason to be leery of Moslems and want to know their intentions." "This Motion singles out Moslems for special protection," Mr. Fromm charges. "In fact, Christians like Bill Whatcott are the victims of a legal system that punishes them for expressing verbally their strongly held religious beliefs." "As for systemic racism, Whites are the chief victims of anti-White discrimination encouraged by government 'employment equity' or affirmative action programmes which give special preference to a host of privileged minorities." "Motion M-103 is offensive and improper," Mr. Fromm says. It is not up to Parliament to scold Canadians for their political or religious views. Members of Parliament should listen respectfully to the concerns of their constituents," he adds. "Our message to Iqra Khalid is that free speech is not negotiable," he insists. "We stand for Canada's traditions — free speech for all, special treatment for none." We reject a Motion that may be the thin edge of the wedge to the sort of sharia anti-blasphemy laws in place in some backward lands where criticizing the religion of the prophet," he said, "can lead to prison or worse." The Washington Post (August 10, 2016) reported: " The State Department singled out Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Sudan, Pakistan and Mauritania as being among the countries where deviating from the religious norm carries harsh penalties." "We note that one of the countries imposing harsh penalties for blasphemy is Iqra Khalid's birth country — Pakistan," he says. _________________________________________ Endorsed by le Societe des Quebecois de souche.

LD50 Gallery in London, EnglandUnder Attack For Hosting Neoreaction Exhibit
LD50 Gallery Under Attack For Hosting Neoreaction Exhibit
The art gallery that (bravely) held a Neoreaction conference has experienced an attack by others in the arts community who, contrary to their image as open-minded thinkers, fear any idea but the dying notions of liberal democracy that are now fading away.
As a Facebook thread illustrates, the rabid Left have made their "long march through the institutions" into a type of monomaniacal dogma that seeks to crush not just opponents, but anyone offering any direction of thought other than Leftism.
The gallery, named LD50, also hosted an altright exhibit which presented its patrons with what they crave, which is a window into the ongoing dialogue of ideas. The Left fears this because while they claim to be on the right side of history, their reality denial cannot last without State enforcement.

CAFE Urges All Members of Parliament to Vote Against Motion M-103
Motion M-103 may be well-intentioned but it's dangerous.
Journalist Ezra Levant warns that today you will debate Liberal motion M-103 before their looming vote on the anti-free speech motion.
Motion M-103 demands that the government not only condemn Islamophobia (without defining the term), but also demands that it develop a government-wide approach to reducing or eliminating Islamophobia.
The Canadian government is preparing to silence anyone who criticizes Islam.
Their anti-Islamophobia motion resembles a kind of blasphemy law in favour of one preferred religion above all others.
This motion flies in the face of our legally enshrined Canadian rights and freedoms!
According to our Charter of Rights and Freedoms, we're all equal. Every individual (not a belief system or ideology) is equal before and under the law. We all have equal protections and benefit equally from the law."
It is improper for Parliament to seek to reduce a political or religious opinion, which is what the term "Islamophobia" is.
The campaign against Islamophobia is a serious threat to freedom of speech. The term "Islamophobia" literally means fear of Moslems. Is that necessarily a bad thing.? Moslems have repeatedly invaded and occupied parts of Europe for 1200 years. Radical Moslems today engage in terrorist acts of bombing and killing in the name of their faith. Canadians are perfectly justified in wanting to know the beliefs and intentions of all newcomers.
People should also be free to criticize and question other religions. This is not an Islamic state. There should be no immunity from criticism for any group or religion.The campaign against Islamophobia is a serious threat to freedom of speech.

OPINION | digital disruption
Mitigating security risks from emerging technologies
As digital transformation sweeps through the defence industry, Clearswift CTO Dr Guy Bunker explains the security risks posed by emerging technologies and how both defence departments and contractors can secure their operations against them.
Over the last few years, the push towards achieving 'digital transformation' within the defence sector has been something akin to the opening of Pandora's box. Seemingly overnight, organisations within the sector have implemented new technologies from AI-driven office solutions to military drones.
Many forward-thinking contractors are using new technologies to leverage greater efficiency, service and profitability. But are these contractors exposing themselves – and consequently our armed forces – to new cyber threats?
A fact of life is that with new developments come new avenues of attack. Whether it be the lacklustre security features on the office 'smart-fridge', or the wide-ranging access of workplace apps like Skype or Slack, each new innovation carries with it the risk of exploitation. So how do contractors go about mitigating these threats?
Dr Guy Bunker, CTO, Clearswift
Assessing the threat from new tech
When introducing new technologies, the first cybersecurity consideration must be: what can these technological advances access? Organisations should carefully evaluate the risk that new applications may have to their network before beginning to implement them, as not doing so could open up a range of new avenues of attack.
For example, the initial integration of email applications such as Microsoft Office 365 into business processes provided a plethora of new opportunities for better work environments, but also opened up new routes for potential hackers to access a contractor's network, and consequently steal critical data or financial assets, often with catastrophic effects for the organisation in question. In October 2018, a third-party contractor was found to be culpable for a significant DoD data breach, where the Pentagon lost 30,000 employees' personal and financial details to hackers, resulting in the termination of that firm's contracts with the DoD.
Organisations must learn from this example and scope out any emerging technologies to determine where potential avenues of attack for would-be-hackers may lie. Of course, while it's a great idea in theory to be able to assess new technologies and apps before they are installed on corporate networks and devices, this is not practicable.
"Devices which have unrestricted access to the corporate network need to be carefully managed to ensure that apps are not unknowingly installed."
One such new type of app that poses a potential threat is the current generation of internal messaging apps (such as Slack or Telegram), or data storage and sharing apps such as Dropbox. As the recent La Liga app scandal has proven, many mobile applications are capable of running a number of functions on a network in the background whilst not always making it immediately apparent they are doing so. It is therefore possible that a phone with an unauthorised or unknown app may be able to interact with the network through an overlooked access permission, gathering and leaking information.
Devices which have unrestricted access to the corporate network need to be carefully managed to ensure that apps are not unknowingly installed. Where this isn't possible, controls need to be put in place to protect critical information.
"Recent information breaches have exposed vulnerabilities in even the most obscure pieces of IoT tech."
However, even when firms have assessed the threat of a programme or device's intended use, they must ensure they search for every possible threat. IoT devices are particularly relevant in this regard, as these small devices (often with only a single simple task) are easily overlooked, but often provide an easy route into a network. They can gather significant amounts of data, which can be abused if it falls into the wrong hands.
Recent information breaches have exposed vulnerabilities in even the most obscure pieces of IoT tech. One often-cited breach involved the exposition of the exact perimeters of a top-secret US military base, after Strava fitness devices showed the exact location and perimeter of a US military base. Similarly, a casino in North America was the target of a significant data breach after hackers found an overlooked IoT fishtank thermometer connected to the network, allowing 10GB of hacked data to be siphoned to a node in Finland.
These breaches teach us that even if a device appears inconsequential, or seen as secure in its function, it can still pose a threat to the network as a whole.
Protecting the whole supply chain
The MOD must take action to ensure the security of its armed forces, by ensuring the cybersecurity of the devices and networks which protect them. Today, it is not just about the MoD, but rather about the whole ecosystem of contractors and consultants who are involved. In the past, we have seen tertiary attacks on suppliers in order to get to the primary target. While the RSA / Lockheed Martin event gained early notoriety, there are other, more recent examples of similar attacks.
The old adage that you are only as strong as the weakest link still holds true. This has to be taken into consideration when new partners are brought on board, or when new collaborative projects are initiated. While a defence-based regulatory body capable of analysing emerging technologies could help the UK take a steps towards securely integrating such technologies into military contracts, the speed of change in the cybersecurity market presents may challenges.
However, other governments are already acting to try and establish better, more timely regulation, with industry leaders and cyber security experts coming together regularly to advise on national security and determine strategies for protecting critical resources. The UK needs to embrace such ideas from other governments and drive forward its own agenda in this space if it wants to remain competitive.
Assess before you integrate
IT decision-makers at contracting firms must carefully assess the emerging technologies they are integrated into their companies' or clients' operations and consider the wider cybersecurity ramifications of a potential breach. As a starting point, decision-makers should investigate the not-insignificant number of solutions which can go some way in mitigating the risks that these new technologies bring.
The use of direction agnostic adaptive data loss prevention solutions can ensure that data cannot be leaked from the network through IoT vulnerabilities, whilst next-generation email and web security software can strengthen defences against information-borne attacks.
Emerging technologies will bring untold new possibilities to armed forces and defence contractors alike, but these will come hand-in-hand with new risks, and a strategic approach to risk assessment and management will be needed to protect both the organisation and the state.

You've heard the rumors: Microsoft axed the launch of a small "Surface Mini" Windows tablet just before the Pro 3 hit stores. Hints of the canceled launch showed up in news articles, Microsoft earnings reports and even the Surface Pro 3's user manual, but now we finally have confirmation that the tablet actually exists — and it was pretty much ready to ship alongside the Surface Pro 3. So ready that, for a time, Surface VP Panos Panay used one on a daily basis.
"It was like a Moleskine," the Microsoft executive told WIRED recently. "It was awesome." Panay described waking up in the dead of night to jot down notes and write [...]
Samsung's supersized Galaxy View tablet looks like this

Nevertheless, if you want to see Samsung's upcoming enormous device called the Galaxy View up close, check out the images above, courtesy of evleaks. The South Korean manufacturer first gave us a glimpse of the tablet back in September, clearly showing its Microsoft Surface-esque kickstand. More recently, early listings on third-party sellers spotted by several websites revealed that the 32GB version will cost you ¢2,280 ($600). Those listings have since been removed, but according GSM Arena, it's powered by an Exynos 7580 SoC, has a fullHD resolution display, 32GB of storage, 2GB of RAM and a [...]
The iPad Pro's biggest challenge: finding its place between tablet and laptop
This article originally appeared on Fast Company and is reprinted with permission.
By Jared Newman
When Apple launched the iPad in 2010, the biggest question was whether it could carve out a space between smartphones and laptops.
For a while, the answer was yes, as the iPad became Apple's fastest-growing product. But since then, smartphones have become larger and more powerful, while laptops have become thinner, lighter, and more battery-efficient. iPad sales have felt the squeeze, declining for two straight years even as Apple's iPhone and Mac sales flourish.
Rather than give up, Apple is sharpening its focus with the iPad Pro, which is larger [...]

Yeah it's always tempting to multitask. I used to brag about being able to multitask all the time, but then one day, I read that no one actually multitasks. Or at least, very few people can literally handle doing five or six things at a time. All you're really doing is not focusing on any one thing to the extent that it needs.
So I decided to try not multitasking. And it really makes a huge difference. Also, I find it knocks down my stress levels a lot.
Simplifying down to just one thing definitely makes a difference. I wind up overwhelmed when I try to take on too much.
Same here. Especially when my anxiety decides to kick into a high gear.

Republicans: PPACA Tax Credit to Favor Singles
Life Health > Health Insurance > Your Practice
October 27, 2011 at 10:41 AM Share & Print
The design of the new Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) health insurance purchase tax credit could hold down the cost of providing the tax credit but sharply limit the number of married couples that will qualify for the credit.
The staff of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee come to that conclusion in a report on the PPACA individual tax credit subsidy system.
The committee held a hearing on the PPACA tax credit earlier today.
If PPACA takes effect on schedule and works as drafters expect, the new tax credit system is supposed to help individuals and families with incomes ranging from 133% to 400% of the federal poverty level buy health coverage.
Individuals could use the tax credit to buy coverage through a new system of health insurance exchanges if they had no access to employer-sponsored insurance, or if they were offered access to employer-sponsored insurance and the out-of-pocket premium for the coverage would amount to more than 9.5% of the employee's income.
Use of the federal poverty level ratio will reduce married couples' access to the tax credit to some extent, because the federal poverty level does not increase by the same amount for each additional household member, according to House Oversight staff members.
In proposed regulations, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has suggested that a couple should not be eligible to use the tax credit if at least one of the two spouses was offered employer-sponsored insurance, and the out-of-pocket premium cost for self-only coverage for that spouse would exceed 9.5% of the compensation the employer has paid that spouse.

ACA Supermarkets Reopen for COVID-19
If an employer offered a working husband affordable self-only coverage, but family coverage for an out-of-pocket premium that clearly was not affordable, "the rest of the family is not eligible for the PPACA tax credits," the staff members say. "The family would be faced with the decision of buying private coverage at an annual cost exceeding $10,000 for the mom and the kids (unless the kids are covered by the state's [Children's Health Insurance Program] or foregoing insurance and being forced to pay the tax penalty instituted by the health care law for individuals who lack health insurance."
If the current rules and rule interpretations prevail, the percentage of married couples that qualify for the tax credit may be as low as 3.3%, the staff members estimate.
About half of the people who qualify for the credit could be single people without children, and about half could be single parents, the staff members say.
Richard Burkhauser, a researcher at Cornell University, notes in written testimony submitted to the committee that family coverage typically costs about 3 times as much as individual coverage, and that employers often expect employees to pay a larger share of the premiums for family coverage than for individual coverage.
If affordability cut-offs depended on whether a worker could afford family coverage, rather than single coverage, the number of employed workers eligible for the subsidy because of a lack of access to affordable coverage could increase to 7.1 million, from 5.8 million, Burkhauser says.
If employees pay 100% of the premiums, then about 9.9 million workers who need self-only coverage would be eligible and about 15 workers who need family coverage would qualify.
Policymakers need to look at ways to avoid put large numbers of spouses and children in a tax credity subsidy "no man's land," Burkhauser says.

Go and get up to date information from one of the best resources in the world
Looking at the world map, it strikes me that the area with the least affected population to date is Africa. There must be some reason for this. Could it be the prevalence of the use of anti malarial drugs?

Thank you that is a brilliant site. Well worth the read. Thanks Ed.
Viking April 1, 2020 At 8:04 am
Could be.
We have known for weeks that it works.
Got treated for what we though was Legionaires disease in late January. Reckon now that it was the virus. All the symptoms . The treatmrent cleaned up my clogged up lungs but didn't ge rid of some of the other thingslike the bad tummy and bowels.
got that sorted and got rid of the aches pains and tiredness. Took a while though.
Not going anywhere near testing. what a fucking drama that would become. 2 months of contacts.
Simpleton1 April 1, 2020 At 9:37 am
Pleased to hear, they got you back up & going.
"Life is to be lived and goes on".
Would be sort of interesting to know if you now have the antibodies to CCP virus?
Sometimes nice not to know, also, as dealing with a bureaucracy that just seems to be knee jerking.
It has been wondered if Italian problem had started last year, months earlier and just considered a bit higher death rate, being a bad flue.
Had some of the dying now, had it mildly before? and the immunity system gets it wrong, when triggered, and the bodies reaction does not help?
How long will the immunity last?
We are all stuck in this petri dish, being probed, tested, examined just like how those that claimed to be UFO kidnapped. 🙂 and becoming right nutters now alongside them 🙁
Nothing is straight forward and all needs time to allow a result, to study, if ever to come out of this murk.
Wuhan studies are sort of seeing a problem with testicles, of men survivors, more critically in the younger and becoming sterilized.
Whether it is temporary and they grow out of it, or the damage is permanent like growing breasts, erectile dysfunction, remains to be seen in how many join the circus to be the "bearded lady".
So trust for Viking that those pipes are all clear, and firing on all cylinders. 🙂
Then like a rust, other political agendas never sleep, and look to take their opportunities.
As the Chinese say, "May you live in interesting times", but "life is to be lived", and nor with out risk, and we should seek to make the most of it.
It is just the adjustments to put behind us.

How much testing is going on in Africa? My guess, relatively little, so of course the map is going to look rather blank.
Pascal April 1, 2020 At 11:01 am
Yup, raw data like that is dangerous.
There really needs to be context in terms of confirmed cases versus testing density; you need to factor in the equivalent of seasonality and consider lifestyle patterns, underlying risk conditions, etc.
For example, we know Italian people generally live in multi-generational family groups and that older generations are more likely to die from this. We know that underlying conditions, particularly lung conditions, also has an impact and that China is rife with smokers. We know the US is very aggressive in terms of testing.
Without some context on that the dataset is just numbers.
What does start to get interesting is when you pick an nth day type structure. For example, start counting day 1 when a country has (population wise) an equivalent to 50 reported cases in NZ. Then trend their confirmed cases over time to see how that changes the curve. Still doesn't factor in lack of testing though 🙂
Harvey April 1, 2020 At 11:34 am
Note that Australian Covid infections are all clustered around the edges of the island with none in the middle. I don't think that's because the virus enjoys the sea air. That's the sort of logic Al Gore uses to pull the wool over climate change hysterics.
The Covid distribution data needs to overlay the population density data.
The WuFlu deaths per day are possibly still misdiagnosed as common flu or pneumonia.
The single death in NZ was nearly missed, and I'm still not sure if the patient died from Covid or with Covid – there's a difference and I don't suppose our breathless churnalists will bother asking.
Viking April 1, 2020 At 1:08 pm
Did you have a TB vacination as a high schooler?
Lots of us did.
Century-old vaccine investigated as a weapon against Covid-19
A vaccine that's been used to prevent tuberculosis is being given to health-care workers in Australia to see if it will protect them against coronavirus.
The bacillus Calmette-Guerin, or BCG, shot has been used widely for about 100 years, with a growing appreciation for its off-target benefits. Not only is it a common immunotherapy for early-stage bladder cancer, it also seems to train the body's first line of immune defense to better fight infections.

Thanks Viking, Some interesting points.
All ways worth while giving things a shot, so long as it does no harm, which BCG has good proof.
Probably these days maybe a boost TB shot, as we are not as regularly challenged.
Sort of like having booster tetanus shots.
There will be many avenues to explore, to test, probe & research, and there will be some blind allys, but extending our knowledge in this is by far much better than those social justice wimmin colonist genderist studies etc. which should be stripped of their funding and moved over to health & medical research!

UK: Greville Janner Dies; Never Prosecuted for Sex Crimes
Chris Rossetti (Editor) · 21 December, 2015
LORD Greville Janner (pictured), arguably the most prominent long-term Jewish "community leader" in the UK, died Saturday at age 87 after a long illness, Ha'aretz reported. Despite ample evidence that Janner had been sexually abusing children for over 24 years, he was never prosecuted.
Janner was a Labour Party member of the British parliament for 27 years, and continued to be a member of the British House of Lords until his death.
But Janner was eventually suspended from the Labour Party after multiple allegations of child sex abuse were made against him.
Police and prosecutors failed to pursue criminal charges against Janner, even though they had more than enough evidence to do so. Then, after the scandal of that coverup became public, in April 2015 the Crown Prosecution Service, the rough equivalent of the US Attorney's office, announced it would not be in the public interest to prosecute Janner, who by then had advanced dementia. At the same time, the CPS admitted Janner should have been charged several times, including once in 1991 and another time in 2007, both on multiple counts of child sex abuse.
Before his dementia, Janner told Ha'aretz in 1999 that it was anti-Semitism and political enemies that were behind the "baseless attacks" against him.
"As a veteran politician, one makes enemies. Being a Jewish community leader and advocate of Israel exposes me to baseless attacks on my honor. That's what we're seeing here," Janner said at the time.
But at least 25 alleged victims of Janner gave evidence to police and CPS.
Janner was chairman of the Board of Deputies of British Jews from 1978 to 1984. In addition, Janner was a vice president of the World Jewish Congress for many years, ending in 2009 – well after his alleged crimes against children had become known – and played leadership roles in other British Jewish organizations.

"… in April 2015 the Crown Prosecution Service, the rough equivalent of the US Attorney's office, announced it would not be in the public interest to prosecute Janner, who by then had advanced dementia."
What a bunch of BS. If an alleged 95-year-old ex-National Socialist guard with dementia were accused of misdeeds, do you think the sympathetic jews would waive any prosecution and state that it is not "in the public interest" to do so? God, how I hate the double-standards and special privileges afforded to jews in this world. Payback will be delicious when it comes.

El-Rufai tackles Fashola's stance on zoning, says it is absurd
By Adewale .S (Chocomilo)	 On Nov 26, 2020
The Executive Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai has tackled the stance of works and housing minister, Babatunde Fashola as he kicked against zoning of political leaders.
El-Rufai said no country progresses with such arrangement.
This is coming hours after WITHIN NIGERIA reported that the Minister of Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola has strongly advised the leadership of the ruling party, All Progressives Congress (APC) to respect and honor agreement reached at the formative stage of the party ahead of 2023 general elections.
The was disclosed by the Kaduna state governor while speaking at the Nigerian Economic Summit (#NES26) in Abuja.
The governor said every qualified person should be given equal opportunity to contest for political positions.
In Nigeria, political offices — especially the presidency — are rotated on the basis of geographical zones, from the time of Olusegun Obasanjo up till the administration of President Muhamadu Buhari who is from Katsina state.
Reno Omokri to El-Rufai: Demolishing buildings over sex parties should…
NCAC DG, Olusegun Runsewe reacts to the demolition of alleged Kaduna…
With the 2023 election roughly two years away, some Nigerians have started clamouring that the presidency should return to the south.
But speaking at a plenary session at the summit on Tuesday, el-Rufai said Nigeria has failed to make serious progress over the years because of the culture of rotating leaders.
The governor, who said leaders should not be selected by zones or political parties as this "will lead to inefficiency", added that what can be done is "to give every society a framework of equal opportunity to take advantage of and prosper".
"I do not believe that we should be driven in our politics and economics by distribution whether or not there is a logic behind it," he said.
"In my honest view, Nigeria went wrong when we focused on distribution rather than production. We like to distribute and it has gone as far as saying that in a state, governorship should rotate; that is absurd.
"There is no country in the world that has made progress in the last 50 years that rotates its leaders. I think if we move away from this fixation about distribution to selecting or picking the best person to get the job done… when the job is done, everybody benefits.
"Right now, we are distributing this and we are not making any progress because the focus is on distribution."
El-Rufai also said there is the need to have more youth in political offices, faulting a system where the majority young population is governed by "old people like me".
"We can't have a country with 90 percent of our population below the age of 40 all ruled by old people like me," he said.
"We must have young people in government being trained to take over from us."

Per qualche dollaro in più (1965)

FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE
(PER QUALCHE DOLLARO IN PIÙ)
A Film Review
Copyright Dragan Antulov 2000

Some STAR WARS fans might disagree, but movie trilogies tend
not to get better with each passing segment. It is quite
understandable, because now we know that even the second
sequel of the film, or the second part of the trilogy,
usually turns out worse than its predecessor. Even if the
second film somehow escapes that doom, the final film of the
trilogy is almost always the disappointment (STAR WARS and
MAD MAX are the best examples). Some thirty-five years ago
an exception to that rule happened in the form of Man With
No Name trilogy, series of three spaghetti westerns directed
by great Italian filmmaker Sergio Leone. The third and final
film in the trilogy, THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY, is
often considered as a true masterpiece, one of the best
films ever made, while the first, A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS,
although most copied, is often considered to be only the
embryonic shadow of its sequels. The second in a row, FOR A
FEW DOLLARS MORE, made in 1965, is least talked about,
although it represents not just the obvious improvement of
the series, but also one excellent western.

The plot of FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE is set in New Mexico
Territory in the latter half of 19th Century, in a time when
the land is at the mercy of vicious bandits. As prologue
tells us, "when life has value, death sometimes has price",
and the bounty killers are there to do the dirty work for
the weak forces of law. One of them is Colonel Douglas
Mortimer (played by Lee Van Cleef), excellent shot and
former war hero, now reduced to having to track and kill
wanted fugitives for a living. The other is Manko (played by
Clint Eastwood), younger and somewhat less experienced, but
equally deadly with gun. Two of them often share hunting
area, but never the same prey. Such thing would happen when
Indio (played by Gian Maria Volonte), leader of vicious gang
of bandits and sadistic killer, escapes from prison with the
help of his cohorts and thus becomes the most wanted (and
potentially most lucrative) fugitive in the territory.
Having bounty killers on his back doesn't concern Indio,
since he has other things on his mind, like a big, fortified
and allegedly robbery-proof bank in El Paso. When Indio's
men begin coming to El Paso, preparing for their daring
raid, Manko and Mortimer must overcome their rivalry and at
least temporarily join forces in order to set a trap for
their common prey.

When FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE and A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS get
compared with each other, the improvements in the 1965 film
are evident in almost any area. First of all, the script by
Sergio Leone, Fulvio Morsella and Luciano Vincenzoni is much
tidier, without plot holes and implausiblities, and the plot
is concentrated solely on three major characters. Instead of
one or two, this film features three major characters and
their interaction is much more intriguing. Musical score by
legendary Ennio Morricone (this time credited with his real
name) is also improved, providing at least two memorable
themes; the opening theme is often became trademark of
spaghetti westerns, and the last theme, used for the scene
of final showdown, was so effective that it would be
repeated in THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY. And, finally,
although higher budget at least has something to do with the
better quality of this film, the real reason is drastically
better directorial skills of Sergio Leone. The Italian
director has obviously worked very hard in order to avoid
repetition and this film looks very different from its
predecessor. Every scene, from those that introduce the
character at the beginning of the film, until the last, is
perfectly staged, with Leone combining Morricone's music,
superb talents of his actors, and editing to create desired
emotional impact. Dark, almost nihilistic tone of the script
is brightened with sharp, cynical dark humour (with episode
featuring Joseph Egger as an old man on the railway as the
best example), while in the same time Leone gives rather
new, unusual and for its time somewhat controversial spin on
the classical western motive of revenge.

Unlike the first, this film has three major characters, and
all three are played by three superb characters. Clint
Eastwood, whose character is (debatably) the only link to
the other two films, is shadowed by his two colleagues,
although he actually plays nominal lead. Eastwood actually
hadn't got much to do to bring some new life to the
character of cynical gunslinger already established in A
FISTFUL OF DOLLARS, although his interaction with other two
actors is fine to watch. Lee Van Cleef, until this film
specialised for the roles of heavies, brings somewhat more
texture to his character. Leone's "show, don't tell"
directorial style relies heavily on actors to tell his
stories, and Lee Van Cleef does just that, creating
character of a cold, distanced professional and ruthless
killer, whose motives, at the end of the day might not be
that simple. When we have two Good Guys in the form of
cold-blooded killers, it is understandable that the Bad Guy
must be bad with capital B. This is achieved through
wonderful performance of Gian Maria Volonte. He plays Indio
as truly psychopathic villain (who almost reaches orgasm any
time he kills a helpless victim), yet in the same time he
gives him charisma and intelligence of natural leader.
Although for some his role might be slightly over the top,
Volonte's Indio is one of the most impressive villains in
the history of cinema. Even those who play supporting roles
have something to offer, like Luigi Pristilli as Indio's
sidekick Groggy, whose face would appear again in THE GOOD,
THE BAD AND THE UGLY.

As a slick combination of western, powerful psychological
drama, violent action and dark humour, FOR A FEW DOLLARS
MORE provides entertainment for viewers even today, after
decades of exposure to other films promoted by it. The only
possible flaw of the film is in its length, but Leone
probably intended this film to be that long, because only in
a long, elaborate scenes his sense of detail could be
properly seen. Those viewers who are ready to sit for two
hours watching this film would be more than adequately
rewarded for their patience.

In our quest for inner peace, this luxurious cream goes to work from the outside in. It's a blend of aromatherapy and skincare, with a soothing, sophisticated fragrance from essential oils and an infusion of botanicals to nourish skin. Vitamin B5 softens and hydrates, while lemon, coriander, and nutmeg extracts fend off damaging free radicals, calm inflammation, and stimulate skin. This lush moisturizer absorbs quickly for a silky, never-greasy feel.
I ordered this product after using the sample I received. As soon as I applied to key skin it did not appear to be the same product. It smelled different, had a thinner consistency and when I compared ingrediants they were not the same. Very disappointed.
So, I really really liked the sample. The scent reminded me of the essential oil used during yoga class. So I purchased the full size. Oddly enough, the full size smells nothing like the sample. It is not a terrible smell, I will continue to use. Yet, I will not purchase another product by this company since you never really know what you are going to get. Sigh.
I bought this because I loved the scent and feel of the sample that came in my box a couple of months ago. As some have mentioned, it was a eucalyptus-y scent, which I happen to like. It was strong going on, but i found it faded nicely after a while. I ordered the full-size bottle without, unfortunately, reading the description. Note that it says "lemon, coriander and nutmeg" -- nothing about eucalyptus (or anything similar to that fragrance). It is, in fact, a completely different lotion. It makes me smell like Indian food, which I like to eat but don't want to smell like. Also, it's not "soothing" like I found the other lotion, but almost has a warming effect, not anything I want in the summertime. And the scent gets stronger as the day goes on. Yuck. I'm very disappointed and won't buy again.
I loved loved loved the sample. It smelled like heaven and felt like it melted into softer skin. I ordered the full size. It smells NOTHING like the sample. I feel swindled!!!
I liked the scent of the lotion-whether or not it was calming is up to individual opinion. The lotion was the perfect consistancy to smooth over large surface areas but then melted in with minimal rubbing.
I loved this cream from the moment I unscrewed the cap on the sample container. The light, fresh scent was instantly calming. As I squeezed some cream onto my hand, it felt luxuriously creamy, but not heavy. Applying the cream onto my face and neck definitely moisturized my skin, and kept it feeling great all day.
This lotion has a VERY strong herbal scent, like tea and incense. I can see why it is calming as the smell is so overwhelming that it grounds you in the present, so I can see it used for anxious people.
I do not typically enjoy receiving lotion type products as I have sensitive skin.
I really liked the smell of this cream and how good it felt on my hands.
My dry skin does better with creams, which is why I gave it three stars. Has a pleasant scent.

Now Celebs Will Answer Your Questions About Themselves on Google!
The latest version of the Google Search will come with special celebrity trivia.
By Vishal Aaditya Kundu On Dec 8, 2017
Just imagine this. You ask your smartphone, "How old is Shah Rukh Khan?" and lo behold, Mr. Khan himself answers your question in a video! Sounds outlandish and futuristic?
It is not! This is set to be a reality in the not-so-distant future.
Google has a big surprise in store for all of us. They are working with celebrities on customized videos which have them answering the most asked questions about them. These videos will be linked with Google's search results whenever a relevant question is asked.
The latest version of the Google's Search will come with special celebrity trivia. The feature has already been rolled out officially in the US where it is in beta testing stage. But there are some reports coming in of the feature working in India on some mobile devices. A full roll out in India is scheduled to take place in a month or two.
Go to Google search on your phone and just type something like "How many languages does Priyanka Chopra speak?" You will get to see the lady herself answer the question in a pre-recorded video.
Celebrities Answering Questions On Google
For any questions you ask, unless it's something related to an IMDB listing, you won't get a straight answer. There are high chances that you may have to go through several online articles to find your answer to your query.
So Google has come up with an interactive solution. It will now bring you answers in form of personalized videos for the most searched-for celebrity questions, straight from the mouths of your favourite stars.
The celebrities for these videos of answering questions about themselves, were chosen on the basis of their popularity in the Google searches. Every celebrity was allowed to pick the questions they wanted to answer from the list of regularly asked questions on Google or trending search queries.
These videos have been recorded in a selfie-style where each one has answered the questions, usually in 30 seconds or less. When this feature is rolled out, they will appear as the top result in relevant searches.
Google Inspired By The Wired Series
The Wired Series was a streak of popular video series where several popular celebrities answered the most searched questions about them on the internet.
It's a similar takeaway by Google for their new video response results and these will only show up in the search results. They will not lead to any YouTube videos or any external links. These videos are limited to mobile search results only and will not show up on searches done on a desktop browser.
Google has piloted the feature in the mobile search results from Bollywood actor Priyanka Chopra and Hollywood actors like Will Ferrell, Tracee Ellis Ross, Gina Rodriguez, Kenan Thompson, Allison Williams, Nick Jonas, Mark Wahlberg, James Franco, Seth MacFarlane, Jonathan Yeo and Dominique Ansel.
Let's wait and watch how Indian netizens respond to this new Google search feature.
"Now Celebs Will Answer Your Questions About Themselves on Google!", 5 out of 5 based on 3 ratings.

USA: Queues before dawn - Black Friday shoppers out in droves in Los Angeles
United States, Los Angeles
Business and EconomicsSociety
Black Friday shoppers were out in large numbers, with some queuing overnight for deals. This is in spite of a spike in cases in Los Angeles, on Friday.
Long lines were seen at some stores, which must limit indoor capacity to 25 percent. This was one of multiple public safety measures in place across the state of California.
Shoppers were not deterred by the measures, with many out in search of christmas deals. One shopper, Yahsmin, had this to say "I'm here today to pick up christmas gifts, because that's when you get all the really good deals."
This year's black Friday comes at a time when the USA is dealing with skyrocketing daily new cases of coronavirus, with over 14.5 millions confirmed cases and a death toll of over 250,000 according to Johns Hopkins University.

Searchers in Mexico find, but release, vaquita porpoise calf
Researchers trying to catch and enclose the last survivors of the vaquita porpoise species captured a calf but released it because it was too young to survive without its mother.
Mexico's Environment Department said veterinarians determined the calf was too young and experts said it was showing signs of stress after capture. The experts with Mexican-led international effort known as VaquitaCPR still saw hope in the calf's capture.
"The successful rescue made conservation history and demonstrates that the goal of VaquitaCPR is feasible," said Environment Secretary Rafael Pacchiano. "No one has ever captured and cared for a vaquita porpoise, even for a brief period of time. This is an exciting moment and as a result, I am confident we can indeed save the vaquita marina from extinction."
Lorenzo Rojas, the lead scientist on the effort, said "while we were disappointed we could not keep the vaquita in human care, we have demonstrated that we are able to locate and capture a vaquita."
A photo released by the Environment Department showed the calf swimming in a pen surrounded by team members. The statement did not say how long it was in captivity.
The U.S. Navy trained dolphins to help find vaquitas and research boats are searching their habitat, the Gulf of California.
It was unclear if the dolphins were even needed; the team said "scientists spotted several vaquitas using visual search methods and acoustic monitoring."
The vaquita population has dropped to less than 30 because of illegal nets set for the totoaba fish, whose swim bladder is prized in China.
After a health evaluation and the taking of some tissue samples, the calf was returned to the area where it was captured and where several other vaquitas had been sighted. The team did not say whether it had rejoined its mother.
The effort started Oct. 12 in the Gulf, also known as the Sea of Cortez, and will continue.
Once caught, the vaquitas are to be held in protected floating pens with hopes they will reproduce and could eventually be re-released into the wild.

Soup's on! But where to find it? Your restaurant favorites?
If you spend any time at all on this blog, you know how I feel about soup: my adoration for its powers of restoration is far-reaching. I've offered plenty of soup recipes for your consideration, including this quick-and-easy classic which, now that I mention it, would make a fine lunch. And when it comes to dining out, I've sung praises for Chinese soup noodles, French onion soup and Malaysian laksa, among others.
Today I'd like to turn the tables, and here's what I want to know: when you head out to a Seattle-area restaurant looking for a great bowl of soup, where do you go? Which soup do you hunger for, and what is it about that particular bowlful that speaks to you of love? I'm making a list and checking it twice. You in? Spill it! But not on your lap, OK?


Today we are visiting a shoe last factory operated by a good friend of mine, Jackie Huang. The Dongguan Lian Xiang shoe last factory is located on a busy side street in the South China shoemaking town of Houjie. Jackie operates the business and meets with customers while his brother, an accomplished last master, works to shape new lasts.
This small factory makes sample development and production shoe lasts for many top international shoe brands. They have over 25 years of experience making all types of lasts for athletic, fashion, and casual shoes. The factory can make over 50,000 plastic lasts a month and is equipped to make development and custom model lasts one by one. Jackie and his skilled craftsmen can make you a new custom last in just a few hours. Let's see how they make a new shoe last.
Inside the last factory you will find a small office, a 3D last scanning machine, a shaping bench, computer controlled high speed last cutting lathes, a finishing area, and a last marking station. You will also find cutting saws, drill presses, hydraulic presses, and plastic extrusion machines.
The last scanner is a critical piece of equipment in any shoe last factory. The scanner is used to duplicate and record any new lasts that arrive at the shop for adjustments. The scanner is also used to record any handmade modifications.
In the last master's workroom, there will be a workbench specifically designed to hold the last in place while its shape is being refined. While all plastic lasts are cut by the automatic machine, subtle adjustments like adding and removing material are still done by hand.
The last cutting lathe machines are the workhorses of the last factory. Able to cut 6 lasts at once, the last cutting lathe can transform "blanks" into lasts in just a few minutes.
To make a new shoe last, Jackie and his team need a few details. If you know the function of the new shoe, such as running or soccer, Jackie can search his extensive computer files for a suitable last. If you have a photo of a similar style, Jackie can find or create a new last similar to the product shown in your photo. Maybe you have a sample shoe to follow? The factory team can "reverse engineer" a last to duplicate the fitting. Of course, if you a have a last that needs modifications, they can scan and reshape a last per your requirements. Once the last file is found or created, it is simply sent to the cutting machine.


We come to you in an unmarked, fully equipped, modern service van! Complete with a fully qualified electrician; not just some jack of all trades. Specialised lifting equipment, comprehensive European parts, and many years of electrical experience is just part of why we use the name Specialists!


Review – Adventures of the Super-Sons #5: Super-Sons and Super-Dads?
Adventures of the Super-Sons #5 cover, via DC Comics.
Ray: Finally, after four issues that were bogged down by too much cosmic villainy and snark between the two kid heroes, Adventures of the Super-Sons #5 gives us an issue that perfectly recaptures the Silver Age vibe the series is going for. When we last left off, Damian and Jon's involuntary space adventure was interrupted by them crash-landing on an odd deserted planet. When they were stranded there by Joker Jr. (who is captured by the rest of his gang this issue), they went to explore and come across an odd mansion in the middle of nowhere. Inside, they were confronted by odd sights including their future selves. This issue is essentially a double-team-up between the two mismatched heroes and their older doppelganger – Damian a burly, grumpy warrior and Jon a jolly, husky hero-next-door. It's actually pretty good representations of how they might end up, although I question how Lois became good enough of a cook to overwhelm a half-Kryptonian metabolism!
This issue seems somewhat inspired by the classic "For the Man Who Has Everything", in that Jon and Damian are tempted by idealized versions of the life they could have – Jon is happily married and now lives in a new fortress in Hamilton, Kansas where he grew up, while Damian has improved on his father's system and now commands an army of Robins-in-training. But the entire project is overseen by a creepy pair of aliens that seem to be based on Cain and Abel in a surreal environment that is obviously not what it appears to be, and once the truth is revealed the two boys have to team up with their doubles in order to escape the house and the planet. For once, Jon and Damian actually seem like partners (and occasionally friends) and the threat is both real but distinct and perfectly in line with the tone of the series. This is only a one-issue diversion, so I don't know where the series will go from here. But for the first time, it feels like a Super-Sons series I want to read.
Meeting their future selves. Via DC Comics.
Corrina: This series has always struggled with the fine line between all-ages adventure and concepts that are a little too adult. That's the case with this story, too, as can be seen from the cover. A child being imprisoned and tortured doesn't exactly scream all-ages. Though that part of the sequence is short in the book, it still seems too much for a title that, ideally, you'd want to give to the youngest of readers.
But the other elements are fun, with Jon and Damian and their adult selves struggling to escape. I especially like how the adult versions are inspired by the idealism of their younger selves. This is fun and this is what the book does at its best. That Damian and Jon finally act as a team makes it work wonderfully.
It's also an interesting twist on the actual Super-Sons history. There, adult Batman and Superman created fantasy versions of themselves to explore what their futures might be like. Here, adult and child have swapped roles.


The scanned page. I straighten it up if the scan is lopsided.
My old Photoshop is still powerful, - a grunty ol' girl like me.
I cut out an interesting panel.
Enhance it - using Levels, Contrast and Brightness, Curves plus others. I may use Blend modes.
White out the text to use for comicbook clipart, tidy it up. Depending on the graphic - sometimes I need to clean up where someone has spilled coffee or drawn on it or ripped it - you get the picture. It's then ready to use as customisable clipart.
Time consuming? Well yes.... Can be. A lot of work? Yeahhh... A lot of fun? ...You bet!!!
I'm thinking about cards - so this might be a good card topper for a teenage/adult male.
