AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. "Once More With…"
Posted by Richard Mantle on December 17, 2014 at 12:29pm in General Comics Discussions
There are some interesting threads on this forum, already, covering issues of Marvel's early series – 're-reading'' of the Avengers and Journey into Mystery/Thor and so on and there was quite a good issue by issue thread on the Invaders around too, until it caught up with the present.
What is more rarely discussed are the later periods when these series were in full flow and while perhaps less iconic still number among them some classics… The examination of the Avengers from #101 onwards gets a credit here.
I therefore present to you an issue by issue critique/discussion forum for one of these mainstay Marvel titles.
Not beginning at the very debut – as others have that covered well – but (and I hope I don't step on anyone's creative toes here!) – I would like to pick up the Amazing Spider-Man title after a watershed/bookend issue provided an opportune point at which to begin …
Issue #50 featured that classic moment in Peter Parker's life when he first thought he couldn't go on and yet eventually realised he just couldn't possibly give up being Spidey.
"Spider-Man No More!" draws breath for the title before it races on into it's next phase – less discussed than the Ditko issues and the early Romita 'End of the Green Goblin' stuff the next issue builds on those early foundations and catapults our hero and the title to the second half of it's first century of publishing and its next phase of greatness…
So, after "Spider-Man No-More!"
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN . "Once More With…"
…"With feeling…!"
…"With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility…!"
…"With in-depth discussion and critique…..
…"With #51 (08/67)…..
Come back soon……

The Shocker, for example, came to be seen as something of a joke by the '80s, but there's nothing "jokey" about his two earliest appearances.
I forgot that Romita originated the Shocker. He has a Ditko style about him. I agree that he was an impressive bad guy, and I liked his costume. I never understood why he was seen as a joke.
Richard Mantle said:
We also get a return from the front line in Vietnam of Flash Thompson, fawned over by both Mary Jane and the , still quite angularly drawn Gwen Stacey. Flash is surprised to hear how popular Peter Parker seems to be whilst no one seems particularly surprised that Flash has got time off from military service he'd only just left to join hadn't he..?
I commented on this on another thread. In ASM #47 they have a going away party for Flash. It is made clear that he was drafted. Since he was in college this presumably means that his grades had fallen below whatever the standard was to maintain a student deferment. He had not yet reported for induction into the Army. (At the end of ASM #47 Spidey saves Norman Osborne from a fall after Kraven the Hunter throws him off a roof, which is pretty ironic.) At the beginning of ASM #48 Stan has Spidey talk of searching the city for Kraven, which implies that it very closely follows the events in #47. The story in #47 continues directly into #48, so no time has elapsed. Finally, in #49's "Spider-Man No More," we have an issue that doesn't refer to recent past events. Gwen shares a letter from Flash with Peter. It sounds from what is said that Flash is on his way to Vietnam.
This gap in the action gives us a chance to infer that time has passed. Since it is clear that Flash went into the Infantry he had to go through basic training and advanced infantry training. This takes a few months. Like many others, Flash's next assignment was to Vietnam. In other cases (such as mine) the first assignment is to a stateside or other base before going to Vietnam. Some were never sent there. When assigned to Vietnam the first thing that happens is you get to go home on leave. You don't get to go home on leave after you get to Vietnam. They had it backwards by having Flash hang out with the gang while home on leave from Vietnam. During a Vietnam assignment a service member had an opportunity to take one or more short 5-day R&R breaks. These were either "in-country" (China Beach or Vung Tau) or to one of several nearby cities outside Vietnam. Married service members were allowed a 7-day R&R to Hawaii, where they could meet their spouse. R&R meant "rest and recuperation" and was not charged against a service member's leave time. The only time someone could actually return home was in a family emergency with special permission.

Story evidence to the contrary, Flash's appearance must have taken place after basic training and before he shipped to Viet Nam. That's the only scenario that makes sense. I just ignore that dialogue that places him there (or interpret it as light-hearted banter or something).

Glad to see this thread! This is entering my favorite Spider-Man period, when I believe he had the best supporting characters (and attendant subplots) in comics. Of course, I may be prejudiced. Romita is my favorite Spidey artist as well.
We see Parker's college life begin to take shape right around here. Foswell's gone, but Joe Robertson enters the picture. Flash is leaving, but Gwen is showing up a lot more. And soon we'll have her dad. Things are just getting started.
Oh, and we'll also get to where Captain Comics began buying Amazing Spider-Man with his own money! He'd had subscriptions for two years as birthday presents, which ran out with the first part of the Doc Ock two-parter. Oh, the humanity! So he had to go get the second part.

Glad you're aboard Captain.
You mentioning your introduction to ASM made me check up mine, UK Marvel's Spider-Man Comics Weekly' and I just noticed that they reached reprintings of these issues we're discussing at Christmas 1973 – 41 years ago ..Now.
Spookily great timing.
The thing that jumped out at me on these covers is that a British publication printed a U.S.-style date on each cover:
This probably means the production occurred this side of the pond.

ASM Annual #4 actually makes reference to the next Annual –(#5) – being an adventure developing the history of Peter Parker's parents ...a full publishing year before the actual issue.
Why would this be?
I cannot think of another similar example.
I have always wondered – and maybe readers on this forum may be able to shed light - - was there a delay in the parents story so another had to be substituted even though the plot was known...or – (and I prefer this option) was ASM Annual 4 actually originally a Human Torch vehicle, GUEST starring Spidey, perhaps for the Strange Tales Human Torch book which by this time had stopped production?
I'll delve into the actual issue soon ...but I just wondered......

The Torch gets the boot after Strange Tales#134, dated July 1965. Amazing Spider-Man Annual#4 was dated November 1967, almost two and a half years later. Strange Tales only had two annuals, dated 1962 and 1963, and the Torch (with guest star Spidey) only appears in the second. Journey Into Mystery got one annual in 1965 with the next annual not coming out until after the change to The Mighty Thor. Neither Astonish nor Suspense ever got an annual. (Why exactly? Were they unpopular?) Since I doubt the Torch would have been let back in just for an annual, I'd guess if the story was meant to appear in Strange Tales it would have had to have been planned for 1964, meaning it would have sat in inventory for a long time. If the two stories were by different artists I could see the parents story not being finished and Stan ordering a new story and putting the first story aside until next year, but I believe they were both drawn by Larry Lieber.

I noticed, too, that the content of Annual #5 was announced a year in advance. My best guess is, given the nature of these stories ("special" content that could be slotted anywahere), Stan assigned then to Larry, giving him plenty of time to take his time on them.
Since I don't think Romita was a speed demon like Kirby, assigning the Annuals/Specials to someone else was probably a smart move. Obviously Stan knew what he wanted in the next one well before it was completed.
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN ANNUAL #4 (11/67)
Writer – Stan Lee – plot assist- Larry Lieber – Penciller
Inker – Mike Esposito
Cover Art – Larry Lieber & Mike Esposito
"The Web and the Flame!"
So, exactly when this was commissioned, for what purpose and whether or not the 'Parents' saga was late or not – remains a mystery…but here we go on the 4th Annual for Spidey…
It's kind of a functional cover only, the black making it a rare entity and impossible to keep in mint condition – I don't think the 'flame in a web formation' actually works – do you?
Gotta love the 'Not A Single Reprint' blurb!
We open with another round of the rivalry between the Human Torch and Spider-Man that existed in these early days, culminating in hero vs. hero that marvel has become so famous for.
We soon learn that the Torch is actually being filmed for a movie and Spidey has blundered in ending up looking silly.
The Torch in a movie – not original – never ends well.
A mysterious villain hears the news and plans a diabolical scheme…as we learn of a movie offer being made to our two heroes.
On set and our heroes call a truce for the duration of filming but Spidey is quickly attacked by a silent Torch who we soon learn was an imposter.
We meet the villains of this piece, collaboration between Torch enemy the Wizard and Spider-Man enemy Mysterio. And learn how they teamed up in their plot.
Then we get more of our heroes fighting until they smell a rat, discover their true enemies and chase after them.
This being a movie set – and a lengthy story – we get a robotic monster-sized gorilla attacking our duo as a middle act before the bad guys are finally defeated by good old teamwork between our heroes.
The good guys trade insults as they leave but there is definitely a growing friendship between them…
The art is very simplistic and basic, big bold pictures often with only three or four panels per page.
There are no continuing sub-lots or much characterisation – everything is done in one and writ large.
It's a forgettable tale, mediocre artwork and while it isn't awful, it nowhere near matches the quality of the regular ASM title….that I'll get right back to soon…
I didn't read this one for the first time until fairly recently (like with the last 10-20 rather than the last 30-40). It is fairly forgettable, so every time I re-read it now it's like reading it for the first time.

The International Council of Electronic Commerce Consultants, known as the EC-Council, was founded out of a perceived need to better arm information security professionals after the 9/11/01 World Trade Center attacks. With the growing threat of computer crime, police, government and private organizations alike were in need of resources to properly train and certify their professionals against information security threats. Since its founding, with support from experts from around the world, the EC-Council has grown and now offers a number of training resources and certifications in information security and beyond. The Computer Hacking Forensics Investigator or CHFI certification is just one of the programs created by the EC-Council that has gained world recognition.
The CHFI certification process is a simple one. Although a corresponding EC-Council CHFI course is offered, it's not required in order to take the certification exam. When a candidate does attend the EC-Council's CHFI course, the certification is awarded upon successful completion of the CHFI 312-49 exam which is conducted on the last day of the course.
The EC-Council's course prepares information security professionals to use tools, techniques and methodologies used in detecting hacker attacks and identifying cybercriminals. Top tools and techniques of the forensic trade are covered during the course and test takers are expected to demonstrate mastery of these skills.
Apart from the EC-Council's, a number of resources exist on the Web from a variety of vendors that can help a candidate prepare for the CHFI exam. Candidates who do not choose to take EC-Council's course must complete an eligibility form in order to take the exam.
The CHFI exam can be taken at Prometric, Pearson VUE, and Prometric Prime testing centers and costs $250, a dollar amount that goes a long way when you consider the job outlook for security professionals. According to the EC-Council, graduates of programs like the CHFI are in high demand and professionals can expect starting salaries of between $85,000 and $120,000. Continuing education requirements exist in order to maintain the CHFI certification.
Professionals of varied backgrounds can gain from CHFI certification including law enforcement personnel, defense and military personnel, systems administrators, and IT managers. With a certification such as the CHFI, an information security professional can feel confident that he or she has achieved what it takes to excel in the field.


Changes that reflect the evolution of thinking and practices related to enterprise risk management (ERM) are among the most significant updates proposed to a new integrated framework devoted to ERM.
The Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) will issue an exposure draft Wednesday and seeks public comment. The update, Enterprise Risk Management—Aligning Risk With Strategy and Performance, provides additional clarity on concepts introduced in the 2004 framework. Those updates are in response to growing complexity and speed of risk over the past decade.
Adopting a structure of components and principles. The proposed framework would have five components supported by 23 principles. The five interrelated components are risk governance and culture; risk, strategy, and objective-setting; risk in execution; risk information, communication, and reporting; and monitoring ERM performance.
Emphasising the relationship between risk and value. The proposed, updated definition aligns risk to value, which is a key driver of ERM. Previously, ERM's main focus was preventing the erosion of value and minimising risk to an acceptable level. Today, it is vital to strategy and identification of opportunities to create and maintain value.
Renewing the focus on the integration of ERM. The proposed framework encourages users to consider ERM as part of the management of an organisation instead of a distinct or siloed activity.
Examining the role of culture. While risk governance sets an organisation's tone, culture encompasses an organisation's ethical value, desired behaviours, and understanding of risk. The relationship between culture and business context influences how strategies are chosen and executed.
Elevating discussion of strategy. The proposed update focuses on three concepts: the possibility of strategy and business objectives not aligning with mission, vision, and values; the implications of the chosen strategy; and the risk to executing the strategy.
Enhancing the alignment between performance and ERM. The proposed update focuses on the role of risk being integral to the establishment of business objectives.
More explicitly linking ERM to decision-making. Decisions on things such as selection of strategy, the establishment of business objectives and performance targets, and the allocation of resources are more informed when risk information such as severity and type of risk is shared.
Delineating between ERM and internal control. COSO updated its internal control framework in 2013 to reflect changes in technology and the business environment. The proposed framework on ERM neither replaces nor supersedes the internal control document, which was an articulation of 17 principles spread across five main components. The frameworks are designed to be distinct but complementary.
Refining risk appetite and acceptable variation in performance. Such acceptable variation in performance is often referred to as risk tolerance. Risk appetite is the amount of risk an entity is willing to accept in the pursuit of strategy and business objectives. Risk tolerance is not a more detailed version of risk appetite but is focused on determining the amount of risk that is acceptable for a given level of performance. Risk and performance are not considered static and separate but are constantly changing and influencing each other.
To better illustrate the alignment of risk, strategy, and performance, the proposed framework introduced an update to the "COSO cube," which was part of the 2004 framework. The titles of the documents have been changed to recognise the alignment. The 2004 document is named Enterprise Risk Management—Integrated Framework.
COSO is a committee of five sponsoring organisations, including the American Institute of CPAs. The organisations come together periodically to provide thought leadership on ERM, internal control, and fraud deterrence.
COSO is seeking public comment on the exposure draft through September 30th. Comments can be made by visiting coso.org.


You could argue fall is Edmonton's best season. It's not too hot, not too cold, and it has the beautiful backdrop of our urban park system turning the skylines an arresting mixture of red, gold, and orange. But don't stare at the turning leaves for too long. It's also a season full of mini chores and you've got a lot of work to do. As the herald of the upcoming deep freeze of winter, fall is the ideal time to prepare for the colder season, and there's no greater place to start than your backyard.
As we move deeper into the season, the leaves of your deciduous trees will fall onto your property. If left on the grass over winter, the leaves can smother the grass and stop it from growing properly in the spring. The snow will also encourage mould to grow, further damaging your beautiful lawn. Rake or blower them into piles, and don't forget about the leaves that are caught in your eaves troughs and downspouts. The city of Edmonton has regular yard waste pick-ups, but you can use your collected leaves as insulation on your open garden beds, just make sure to mulch the leaves before you deposit them.
As the various maples, birches, and elms on your property begin to shed their canopies, you'll get a better view of their branches. Since this is Edmonton, you can expect several serious winter storms in our near future, so take this time to inspect the limbs to see if they are structurally sound. If anything looks loose or unwell, they may fall in a storm. While you may be tempted to bring out the ladder and cut these damaged limbs yourself – don't. It can be incredibly dangerous to do without the proper training or the appropriate equipment that arborists such as Chipps Tree Care use. You may injure yourself or incorrectly prune branches and cause the plant further harm. Leave it to the professionals, who are trained to perform low-impact tree pruning Edmonton homeowners can trust. Booking their services is as easy as visiting www.chippstree.com and getting in touch. With a variety of skills and tools available, they can even offer tree removal in Edmonton.
Outdoor appliances, faucets, and irrigation systems can't handle the cold. Edmonton's sub-zero temperatures will freeze any coolants or water left in these systems, so you need to drain them and turn off the source of water in order to prevent frozen and burst pipes. You can easily turn the water off from your faucets, but you may want to call the technicians who installed your air conditioner and water sprinkler system to ensure they're winterized properly.
There are plenty of smaller chores that can take up a lot of your free weekends this fall, but these are your three priorities. Get started on your fall maintenance whenever you get the chance, and don't forget to call a trained arborist Edmonton homeowners trust. They can help make sure your trees are healthy enough to make it through the winter.

I have a twitter dataset of Indian general election 2014. The dataset is in 3 different folders based on the main issues for the 2014 election that are Corruption, Economy and Development. For each issue tweets are collected date-wise and stored properly specifying the time like before election, after election and election time. All the files are in json format.
Now, as this data is general public data, so for categorization there are some keywords, hashtags and mentions which I have analysed using dataset and will be used for different parties identification. So I need a script which can categorize this and after that can tell that a particular tweet is positive, negative or neutral for that party.
I am uploading one file of a particular date of one issue for reference. All the dataset is in this format. Just check it and if able to do this please contact me.

Chemical recycling provides an innovative way to reutilize plastic waste that is currently not recycled, such as mixed or uncleaned plastics.
Depending on the region, such waste is usually sent to landfill or burned with energy recovery. But chemical recycling offers another alternative: Using thermochemical processes, these plastics can be utilized to produce syngas or oils. The resulting recycled raw materials can be used as inputs in BASF's production, thereby partially replacing fossil resources.
BASF has, for the first time, manufactured products based on chemically recycled plastic waste.
BASF is collaborating closely with its customers and partners, which range from waste management companies to technology providers and packaging producers, to build a circular value chain.
BASF is already developing pilot products, including mozzarella packaging, refrigerator components and insulation panels, with 10 customers from various industries. Manufacturing products that meet high quality and hygiene standards – which are specifically required for food packaging for example – is possible because the ChemCycling products supplied by BASF have exactly the same properties as products made from fossil resources.
"This new way of recycling offers opportunities for innovative business models for us and our customers, who already place great value on products and packaging made from recycled materials but who cannot or do not want to make any compromises when it comes to quality," said Stefan Gräter, head of the ChemCycling project at BASF.
At the beginning of the production chain, BASF feeds oil derived from plastic waste by an oiling process into the Production Verbund. BASF gets this feedstock for the pilot products from the partner Recenso GmbH, Germany. As an alternative, syngas made from plastic waste can also be used. The first batch of this oil was fed into the steam cracker at BASF's site in Ludwigshafen in October. The steam cracker is the starting point for Verbund production. It breaks down or "cracks" this raw material at temperatures of around 850 degrees Celsius. The primary outputs of the process are ethylene and propylene. These basic chemicals are used in the Verbund to make numerous chemical products.
Under the mass balance approach, the share of recycled raw material can be mathematically allocated to the final certified product. Each customer can select the allocated percentage of recycled material.
Both the market and society expect the industry to come up with constructive solutions to deal with plastic waste. Chemical recycling is an innovative complement to other recycling and waste management processes.
"We need a wide range of recovery options for plastic waste, since not every solution is suitable for each type of waste or possible for each product application. The first choice should always be the solution that performs best in a life cycle assessment," said Andreas Kicherer, sustainability expert at BASF.
Plastics offer many benefits in technical applications, medicine and everyday life and they are often a better alternative to other materials. The challenge lies in responsibly managing post-consumer plastics. Functioning waste management systems and responsible consumer behavior with regard to plastics are crucial to solving problems such as pollution from plastic litter. To this end, BASF is involved in various projects at the association level and internationally. For example, the company is a member of the World Plastics Council and participates in two programs of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation. Furthermore, BASF has implemented Operation Clean Sweep, an international initiative of the plastics industry to prevent the loss of plastic pellets, flakes and powder in the environment. BASF's new ChemCycling project is another milestone in the responsible use of resources and an example of how BASF is specifically addressing global challenges while also helping its customers to reach their goals.

Online sociology degree leads alum from rural town to Fulbright scholarship and more
Sarah Brown is now a master's fellow in public administration at Cornell University. It's the latest step in her impressive journey after earning a sociology bachelor's degree online with Oregon State and conducting a yearlong Fulbright research project.
Shortly after moving from Corvallis, Oregon, to a small rural town in Washington more than 20 years ago, Sarah Brown started an organic produce farm.
She did everything from customer service to digging ditches, and in the process she gained firsthand knowledge of the hardships people go through trying to live off the land.
"I wanted to make a positive impact, and growing food is such a basic thing to do," Brown said. "It seemed like one way to really positively influence not only the land, but also my community by rallying people around organic produce."
She successfully ran her business for nearly a decade before deciding to focus on it as a hobby instead of a living after her son was born.
That's when she decided to pursue a sociology bachelor's degree online with Oregon State Ecampus. The program's focus on human values and community – and the social forces that shape them – aligned with her own interests.
Brown had everything going for her. Until it wasn't.
Community restoration amid disaster
In 2014, her town in Washington's Methow Valley fell victim to the Carlton Complex wildfire, the largest wildfire in state history. "And it started across the river from my house," she said.
The fire burned the hillside by her home, her irrigation, fences and trees.
"It burned everything else, including 300 of my neighbors' houses. It was intense," she said.
But what stood strong was the community support. The town members did what they could to help those in need and even set up foundations to rebuild.
"The core classes for the sociology program were incredible in helping me prepare to conceive, build, write and research for my project in Hungary."
While others might feel like they've had enough, Brown didn't let it get her down. She worked even harder to restore her community and continued on her pursuit of an education – one class at a time.
"I started Ecampus when it was still a pretty new program where they had VHS videos that they would mail to me," said Brown, whose husband, Brian Fisher, earned his natural resources degree online with OSU Ecampus in 2007. "It was hard being in such a rural location. It was really different than now."
A (Ful)bright future
Technology evolved as her studies continued. It took a decade for her to earn her diploma, but, she said, it was worth every year's work – and it paid off in the most rewarding way.
After graduating with honors in 2016, Brown earned a prestigious Fulbright scholarship for the 2017-18 academic year. She spent the year in Hungary, conducting independent research focused on rural social innovation methods and successes.
And the knowledge she gained in OSU's sociology program significantly impacted her ability to succeed as a researcher overseas.
"The core classes for the sociology program were incredible in helping me prepare to conceive, build, write and research for my project in Hungary," said Brown, who was the first OSU Ecampus student to receive a Fulbright scholarship.
She even brought tutorials and files from her undergraduate studies with her as a reference.
"For me as a researcher, there is a wealth of information to pull from," she said prior to leaving on her Fulbright fellowship, "and if I can pull numbers that are pertinent to my questions, then I will actually be able to interpret them using the statistical tools that I learned in my class that taught that."
Brown's academic career has only continued to prosper since she returned from Hungary. She is now a master's fellow in public administration at Cornell University.

← Oregon State Ecampus booms in the Ed Ray years
Rising to the challenge to meet the needs of students and faculty →


The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 was officially unveiled yesterday, and although it's a fairly modest improvement compared to the Note 7 and Galaxy S8/S8+, one of the most notable new features is the phone's dual-camera system. The Note 8 is the first phone from Samsung to feature a dual-camera setup, and according to a new report, the Galaxy S9 will follow suit with this latest trend.
According to KGI's Ming-Chi Kuo — more known for his Apple analysis than others — Samsung will integrate a dual-camera onto the Galaxy S9 similar to what's found on the Note 8. KGI didn't dive into any technical specifications for the S9's camera system, but our guess is that it'll work similarly to that of the Note 8's.
The Galaxy Note 8 uses two 12MP sensors for its rear camera system, and similar to what we've seen from Apple and many other OEMs, the secondary sensor acts as a telephoto lens for 2x optical zoom. Although this is arguably one of the less intuitive ways to use a second sensor as compared to a wide-angle lens, both cameras on the Note 8 are optically stabilized for extremely crisp and smooth low-light photos/videos.
Adding dual-cameras to the Galaxy S9 seems like a logical move for Samsung, but we'll be interested to see if the company sticks with a telephoto lens for the secondary sensor or if it decides to try out something else.
In addition to the report on the Galaxy S9, KGI also says that it expects Note 8 shipments to range from 12-14mn throughout 2017 and that Samsung is likely working with Himax and Egis to help develop the Galaxy Note 9's under-display fingerprint scanner.
As previously reported, Samsung will stick with a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner for the Galaxy S9 while it continues developing the under-display one for the Note 9.
Egis reportedly has the algorithms necessary for this technology to work, and as such, will likely be one of the key partners for Samsung as it tries to integrate fingerprint scanning technology underneath the Note 9's display. However, Egis will likely take the aid of Himax as it doesn't have the CMOS image sensing tech required to pull this project off.
However, because Egis lacks CMOS image sensor (CIS) technology, we think it will try to source CIS from Himax, with itself playing the role of integrator, being responsible for designing the controller and algorithms and for optimizing the overall system.
It's still too early to really start speculating more about the Galaxy S9 or Note 9 seeing as how the Note 8 was just announced yesterday, but these reports are making Samsung's 2018 lineup look rather enticing.
The Galaxy S9 should allow those that stick with the main S-series to try out Samsung's dual-camera system for the first time, and the Note 9 reportedly ditching the horribly placed rear fingerprint scanner on recent Samsung phones will win be a big win for critics and consumers alike.

Q: EmberJS file upload via jquery-file-upload I have an Ember.js controller and I'm attempting to send a file to my rails controller with jquery file upload.
I started with this:
myControllerAction: ->
  $('#fileupload').fileupload(
    url: "/api/v1/comics"
    dataType: 'json'
    formData:
      comic: {
        title: self.get('comicTitle')
        prompt_one_id: self.get('prompts')[0].get('id')
        prompt_two_id: self.get('prompts')[1].get('id')
      }
    )

Which did work, but it sent the form as soon as a file was selected. I want to do it all when the user submits the form. So I tried this:
  didInsertElement: ->
    $('#fileupload').fileupload(
      url: "/api/v1/comics"
      dataType: 'json'
      formData:
        comic: {
          title: self.get('comicTitle')
          prompt_one_id: self.get('prompts')[0].get('id')
          prompt_two_id: self.get('prompts')[1].get('id')
        }
      add: (e, data) ->
        data.submit()
      progressall: (e, data) ->
        progress = parseInt(data.loaded / data.total * 100, 10)
        $('#progress .bar').css('width', progress + '%')
    )

   myControllerAction: ->
    self = @
    $('#fileupload').fileupload('add')

However that doesn't work. It throws a javascript error:
Uncaught Error: cannot call methods on fileupload prior to initialization; attempted to call method 'add'

I thought setting everything up on element insertion would be initializing the object. So I'm not sure where I'm going wrong. Anyone have any suggestions?
EDIT: To add template
    <form enctype="multipart/form-data">

        Title

          {{input type="text" valueBinding="comicTitle"}}
          {{input type="file" id="fileupload" valueBinding="comicFile"}}

      <button {{action myControllerAction}} id="upload_comic" class="btn btn-inverse">Upload Comic</button>

    </form>

A: Not sure what's the cause of the error, but try to do it with the afterRender callback. Also use this.$('#fileupload') instead of $('#fileupload'). Code:
  didInsertElement: ->
    Ember.run.scheduleOnce('afterRender', this, 'setupFileUpload')

  setupFileUpload: ->
    $('#fileupload').fileupload(
      url: "/api/v1/comics"
      dataType: 'json'
      formData:
        comic: {
          title: self.get('comicTitle')
          prompt_one_id: self.get('prompts')[0].get('id')
          prompt_two_id: self.get('prompts')[1].get('id')
        }
      add: (e, data) ->
        data.submit()
      progressall: (e, data) ->
        progress = parseInt(data.loaded / data.total * 100, 10)
        $('#progress .bar').css('width', progress + '%')
    )

The e-book begins within the Berlin of the bright nineteenth-century historian Leopold von Ranke, who's usually credited with inventing documented background in its glossy shape. Casting again to antiquity and ahead to the 20 th century, Grafton's research exposes Ranke's place as a much more ambiguous one and gives us a wealthy imaginative and prescient of the real origins and sluggish triumph of the footnote. one of the protagonists of this tale are Athanasius Kircher, who outfitted quite a few files into his spectacularly speculative treatises on historic Egypt and China; Pierre Bayle, who made the footnote a strong device in philosophical and old polemics; and Edward Gibbon, who reworked it right into a excessive type of literary artistry. continuing with the spirit of an highbrow secret and peppered with interesting and revealing comments by way of those that "made" this historical past, The Footnote brings what's so usually relegated to afterthought and marginalia to its rightful position within the middle of the literary lifetime of the brain.
Christopher Schroeder spends nearly no time disputing Bartholomae's well-known essay, yet all through ReInventing the collage, he elaborates an method of educating composition that's at odds with the culture that essay has come to symbolize.
On the opposite hand, his technique is usually at odds with parts of the pedagogies of such theorists as Berlin, Bizzell, and Shor. Schroeder argues that, for college students, postmodern instability in literacy and that means has turn into a query of the legitimacy of present discourse of schooling. Schroeder is dedicated, then, to developing literacies together with scholars, and by means of doing to be able to deliver scholars to interact extra deeply with schooling and society.
This doesn't suggest he abandons conventional discourse of conventional perform within the lecture room; particularly, culture turns into just one voice between many, rather than the dominating one. ReInventing the collage is a longer dialogue of why Schroeder feels this is often useful, how he attempts to build literacies that experience legitimacy with scholars, and what his reviews may well suggest for school rooms, departments, and disciplines.
A demanding, leap forward publication ReInventing the collage articulates a brand new general wherein pedagogy in composition needs to now be considered.
The Artist's Way is the seminal publication just about creativity. a world bestseller, hundreds of thousands of readers have stumbled on it to be a useful advisor to dwelling the artist's existence. nonetheless as very important today—or even perhaps extra so—than it was once whilst it used to be first released one decade in the past, it's a powerfully provocative and encouraging paintings. In a brand new creation to the publication, Julia Cameron displays upon the effect of The Artist's Way and describes the paintings she has performed over the last decade and the recent insights into the artistic method that she has won. up to date and elevated, this anniversary variation reframes The Artist's Way for a brand new century.

Part craft speak, half philosophical tome, half memoir, MFA in a Box isn't really a lot a e-book approximately how to put in writing because it is ready whyto write. In chapters that discover the relationships among the author and love, grief, position, relatives, race, violence, and different subject matters, Rember is helping writers dive deep into their very own writing. He tells them how they could breathe down there and the way they could come again.
"A great a part of writing comprises grappling with the terrors and discouragements that come if you have writing talents yet cannot venture your self or your paintings into the future," says Rember. "My desire is that MFA in a Box may also help writers stability the melancholy of writing with the enjoyment of writing. it is a publication designed that can assist you to discover the braveness to place fact into phrases and to appreciate that writing is a life-and-death endeavor--but that not anything a few life-and-death undertaking retains it from being laugh-out-loud funny."

Gregory N. Stephanopoulos, W. H. Dow Professor of Chemical Engineering & Biotechnology at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is being honored for his contributions to metabolic engineering.
"Greg Stephanopoulos has made outstanding contributions to the synthesis of new metabolic pathways for the production of chemicals and fuels," says Robert S. Langer, a chemical engineering colleague at MIT. "These efforts led to the definition and advancement of metabolic engineering as a new type of organic chemistry harnessing the power of microbial biosynthetic machinery for efficient product synthesis."
Stephanopoulos, 59, has played a significant role in defining the field of metabolic engineering, Langer says. "With his groundbreaking book, 'Metabolic Engineering: Principles and Methodologies,' he established the scientific and engineering fundamentals and thus laid the educational foundations of this new field. This book has created a new interface between chemical engineering and the life sciences," Langer says. In addition, Stephanopoulos is the founding coeditor of the journal Metabolic Engineering. He also launched a series of conferences on metabolic engineering.
Much of Stephanopoulos' research has focused on microorganisms' basic metabolism, which he has then used to advance industrial processes. Whereas the hallmark of his research has been a deep focus on metabolic fundamentals in microorganisms, its impact has been felt across product categories ranging from specialty chemicals (pharmaceutical intermediates), bulk chemicals (amino acids), and even renewable fuels (ethanol), says Chaitan Khosla, a professor of chemistry and chemical engineering at Stanford University.
Stephanopoulos developed flux analysis for use in metabolic networks and demonstrated its utility in a number of applications. For example, he used network analysis and metabolic engineering to identify new pathways for the biosynthesis of indandiol, a chiral precursor of the AIDS drug Crixivan. By modifying the reactions in the bacterium that produces indandiol, he increased the selectivity of the product from 25% to more than 95%.
Stephanopoulos received a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering from National Technical University, in Athens, in 1973. He received an M.S. in chemical engineering from the University of Florida in 1975 and a Ph.D., also in chemical engineering, from the University of Minnesota in 1978.
In 1978, he joined the chemical engineering faculty at California Institute of Technology. He was promoted to associate professor in 1983. In 1985, he moved to MIT as a professor of chemical engineering, where he has been since. From 2000 to 2005, he was the Bayer Professor of Chemical Engineering & Biotechnology at MIT. In 2006, he was appointed to his current position.
He has received many other honors and awards, including the Marvin J. Johnson Award from the American Chemical Society, the R. H. Wilhelm Award in Microbial & Biochemical Technology in Chemical Reaction Engineering from the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), the Charles Thom Award from the Society for Industrial Microbiology, and the AIChE Founders Award. He was elected to the National Academy of Engineering in 2003 and as a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2005.
Stephanopoulos will present the award address before the Division of Biochemical Technology.

It is often difficult for family and friends to understand the impact a criminal act can have on a victim.
At this time, it is important that victims are supported by people they know and trust.
Even if they have not been physically injured or directly threatened during a criminal act, some people can have strong reactions to what may seem a relatively minor event.
Victims are often overwhelmed by strong emotions, leaving them feeling vulnerable and out of control. Their anger and fear may be misdirected at loved ones and friends at times.
It is important that you don't expect too much of them, as this may hinder their recovery and add to the pressure they are already feeling. Your friend or family member will need to heal in their own way and in their own time.
What are the common reactions?
impaired decision making and judgement.
How long will the reactions last?
Some people will manage their reactions within a couple of days, while others may take weeks or months before they regain control of their lives.
Watch for any strong reactions. If any of the reactions listed above last for longer than a few days, encourage the victim to contact the Victim Support Service for assistance.
As a support person, you can discuss your concerns about a family member or friend with a Victim Support Service counsellor.
try not to take their emotional reactions personally, even though they may be difficult on you.
You may also have your own reactions. It may be important that you find someone to talk to as well.
In addition to supporting victims of crime, the Victim Support Service is also available to family and friends. Freecall 1800 818 988 or contact us at our nearest office for help.
