GL: The Hunt for Hal Jordan
Ωmega Man
Guardian of the Universe
Location: East TN
The Hunt for Hal Jordan is an idea I had back when it was believed Hal would be venturing into the unknown sectors beyond where the Source Wall once stood. Like many of my other fanfics this will take bits from current continuity and I'll just spin some things a bit differently. I'm not going to get into the other Forces like in the Flash comics, and both the Invisible Spectrum showing up in Snyder's JL and the Emotional Spectrum from GL's past decade will both not play parts in this story. I'll be taking a page from the stuff happening in Titans with Source Wall 'emergent energy' playing into this story. If this lasts beyond the opening arc, after the team finds Hal the roster will go through some changes here and there. Similar to the Guardians of the Galaxy when the team was relaunched in the modern day with a bunch of characters 90% of comic fans didn't even know existed, I'm gonna rotate in and out probably around 5 or 6 characters total before I settle on the core team.
This is still very much a Kyle Rayner story, however in this instance I've decided to write him in a team setting rather than go at something lone wolf. There's honestly already another fanfic idea I had written a chapter or two for featuring both Hal and Kyle back on Earth with a split POV each chapter similar to the Superman/Batman comics out there. THfHJ is a story though with a beginning, middle, and end so I decided to run with it first and see where it takes me.
I'm proofreading the first chapter one more time, making sure all the tags are right, etc. before posting it. As always critiques and comments are always welcome and appreciated!
New Chapter is up FINALLY! Sorry for the delays...

Kyle Rayner ventured into unknown space at the edge of the known universe where the Source Wall once stood. Debris was everywhere as well as an unknown energy. The faint energy trail left by Hal's ring before he crossed into the uncharted sectors some six weeks earlier was hard enough to track already. It wasn't long after Honor Guard Lantern Kyle Rayner entered the unknown parts of the universe in search of his friend that his ring began losing power.
"Unknown energy negatively effecting Oan tech, return to known space and report. Power levels at 76% and declining rapidly…" the ring began repeating like an alarm clock.
"My name is Kyle Rayner. I've been a Green Lantern for awhile now. At times I've been much more. But right now it looks like if I don't turn around I'm gonna be…."
"Unknown energy negatively effecting Oan tech, return to known space and report. Power levels at 68% and declining rapidly…"
Chapter 1 – "POWERLESS."
Space Sector: 0, the planet Oa….
Kyle Rayner was now in a meeting with Lanterns Salaak and Kilowog, as well as Lanterns Stel and Torquemada just outside the Central Power Battery.
"The energy is both cosmic AND magical, with a little bit of the unknown thrown into the mix. The only thing that is certain is…." the hooded Torquemada began before being interrupted by the technological Stel.
"That it depletes the power of our rings as soon as we venture into unknown space. There could be a way around it." Stel responded looking like some anime robot in green.
"But could Hal have known that before his ring went dead? Damn poozer always flies by the seat of his pants!" Kilowog commented further with a snarl.
"It is of upmost importance we find Hal Jordan so that he may report his discoveries to the Guardians. Any information about the universe beyond where the Source Wall once stood will be invaluable to the Guardians. Lanterns Stel and Rayner, come up with something to get around the unknown space sectors' effects on our rings. Kilowog, if we can't get rings to function we may need to call in some favors outside of the Corps…" Salaak instructed.
"Stel and I worked for what seemed like days. And it likely was seeing as how an Oan day lasted nearly thirty-seven Earth hours to the twenty-four I'm used to. I felt like a video-game developer trying to come up with something for kids twelve and under…." Kyle thought to himself after countless hours of sketching and working alongside Stel to put the power of the rings into other devices.
"I'm not a super savvy tech guy. But when I came across old blueprints in the Foundry for the Manhunter robots…. Stel and I finally had somewhere else to start. We managed to put most of the properties of the ring into a pistol similar to what the Manhunters wielded. It had a finite charge, with the personal force field, and flight. The battery as well as a different type of A.I. I developed with Stel was reworked into a small star-cruiser. If 'Wog had hair and Stel was spray-painted gold I'd be a stand-in for Han Solo."
Kyle stepped into the personal quarters of Hal that was on Oa. Hal had left his father's jacket, a picture of Carol, and a couple changes of clothes. A cell phone from about nine years earlier was also in a drawer with a few old contacts like Barry and Ollie on a piece of paper.
Kyle took one look at the jacket hanging on the back of an Oan chair. Some time later he was stepping out of the quarters of Torquemada with the jacket in hand.
Hours later….
Kyle showed up to a hangar in a different type of suit. Since the ring wasn't in his arsenal he couldn't depend on it for the usual attire. Instead he had what looked like light body armored black gloves and pants with a green shirt and black mask. He also had a belt with a holster for the green gun and a GL symbol for a buckle. He had Hal's jacket in his hands.
"What're you gonna do with THAT, poozer? Something happens to Hal's jacket and he'll…." Kilowog began.
"He'll be glad to see it. Trust me." Kyle responded with a smirk. "Who'd we manage to get for this field trip, Salaak?" Kyle asked walking up to the ship.
"We reached out to everyone that we could, save for the House of Zod. Orion wished to be a part of this, however he is currently tied up with Mister Miracle. After that human in the space taxi was pulled over for false tags and ID in sector 0421 we confiscated his ship and put the mother-box warp drive into your star cruiser. Kilowog has agreed to join you even without a ring." Salaak explained.
"Kilowog's like the meanest drill sergeant mixed with Barney the Dinosaur on steroids." Kyle thought as Kilowog powered down after removing his ring and giving it back to Salaak.
"Is it really just gonna be the two of us? I knew I should've brought my old classics mix CD!" Kyle asked patting the larger Lantern.
"Of course not, we also reached out to the Justice League of your Earth…." Salaak continued as two heroes came down from the cargo bay.
Hawkgirl and what appeared to be the Atom walked off of the star cruiser. Hawkgirl was sporting more silver and gold armor to match her current wings. Her helmet looked like something out of a cyberpunk anime from decades earlier, and after she removed it there was the tough demeanor of a short haired Kendra Saunders. The Atom, in size, resembled an old giant Power Rangers figure from the 90's. He couldn't have been more than two or three feet tall.
"Is that you Ray? Why're you only two feet tall? Your dwarf star get ED?" Kyle joked.
"The energy from the Source Wall affected my belt as well as hundreds of others in the Milky Way Galaxy. After it malfunctioned in the microverse I got stuck this size trying to revert to normal. I'm coming along to study these new energy signatures and try to get back to regular size. Others back on Earth need rescuing as much as Hal." responded the Atom in a red and blue tech suit refitted for space.
"Wog!? You ready to boldly go…?" Kyle began to say before Kilowog revved the engines of the ship.
"So not only are we looking for Hal we're also studying these strange energies. This is looking more and more like something out of Star Trek. I got nothing better to do though." Kyle thought before speaking to the ship's new AI.
"A.L.E.X., are you online?" Kyle asked setting down in the captain's chair.
A hologram of a female resembling his ex that was killed some time after he first got the ring appeared.
"Awaiting command." the floating green woman responded.
"Let's go find Hal!" Kyle yelled as the group took off from the surface of Oa.
Five weeks ago….
Unknown sector.
Hal Jordan's eyes opened and he struggled to get to his feet. His right arm was busted and he couldn't run. His ring was dead. His suit was damaged. Fire and what looked like debris from a destroyed alien city was all around.
"What could do this? What the hell happened to my ring?" Hal asked himself staggering forward. He laid low when signs of an invading force marched through.
Three weeks ago…
Hal managed to find a camp of alien refugees from various planets. He was still beat up looking and desperately in need of food.
"Any chance one of you speaks English?" he asked as a tiny robot flew in front of his face and scanned him.

Well, I don't normally read fanfic, but since you asked specifically.
I like that you tied it in with what's going on currently in the DCU. The GLC should be more central to universal events.
Some of the dialogue would be a bit wordy (as in it sounds like a lot for people to actually be saying) if it were to be an actual comic, but then again an actual comic couldn't make all the fun cultural references.
I love the idea of the Atom being stuck at two feet. Not small enough to be very useful, so a real handicap in a battle.
Oh, and I'm curious what Kyle's classics mix would be.

Kyle's classic mix probably wouldn't surprise anybody at all. Some RHCP, NIN, Nirvana, Beastie Boys, Dropkick Murpheys, 311, Harvey Danger, and Sublime. Possibly some early Incubus. He'd likely have some Synthwave thrown in there too since he's into anime but I can't remember what all they called it in the 90's. The Mortal Kombat theme from the '95 movie would also be there LOL

Two weeks ago….
"My name is Hal Jordan. I'm the Green Lantern of Sector 2814. Weeks ago I crashed on this planet. My ring has been dead ever since." Hal thought to himself as he wandered around the camp site. "I was chasing some weapons traffickers through warp-space when we landed in the unknown space sectors. Damn ring started acting up and they got the drop on me once we slowed down. I woke up later in what looked like a fallen city, invading forces were still all around. I don't know how I managed to stay alive, but if I hadn't stumbled onto this refugee camp I'd be dead by now."
"This blue skinned woman…. She's one of the leaders in the camp… I think she's a telepath. It'd be helpful since I don't have my ring's translator to understand anybody." Hal thought to himself passing the woman who also had some pretty wild looking hair and glowing yellow eyes.
Present day….
"I always liked Hal best, but Rayner is…." Kilowog thought from the bridge of the ship.
Chapter 2 - "…a good kid."
Kyle Rayner wandered around the ship for an unknown amount of time while the ship was in hyper space. He had left Hal's jacket by the captain's chair on the bridge and he currently had his smart phone in hand looking for a place to plug it into. After a few moments he finally found one in a hallway near a small control panel near the floor. After plugging his phone in he asked out loud…
"ALEX, can you tap into my phone and play some music?" Kyle asked standing up off of the ground.
"He's seen more in his short time with the ring than most of the other Earth GL's, 'cept maybe Hal." Kilowog continued.
"Scanning software… converting files… Would you like for the files to be played over the intercom?" ALEX asked in response.
"Make it so!" Kyle exclaimed motioning his arm forward.
"Test your might…." Began playing with electro beats and early 90's dub step, "Test your might…"
"I was staying on Earth for a bit some time before Kyle got a ring. I remember when music sounded like this." Kilowog continued musing to himself.
"What in the nine hells are we listenin' to, Poozer?" Kilowog asked from his station on the bridge as Kyle stepped back into the room.
"A theme song from my favorite childhood video game series, I found a plug to jack my phone into the ship's intercom." Kyle said with a smile taking a seat. "There was a movie right around the time I was born back in the 90's…."
"Of course you'd have video game music… you're a child in a man's body. How were you ever a Lantern?" Hawkgirl asked, her wings retracted and her helmet was off as well.
"I've got a better question… How'd you end up with that Cosmic Staff or whatever? Isn't that..?" Kyle started to ask before Kendra cut him off.
"Stargirl's currently going through some family drama, so I asked if I could use it since she's taking some time away from the costumes and crime fighting." Hawkgirl responded.
"That's interesting. Ray, what's that coming up in the distance?" Kyle asked moving forward in his seat.
"Looks like a couple of inhabited moons and an asteroid field. There could be some debris from the Source Wall as well. We're less than a quarter of a lightyear into the unknown sectors even with the Boom Tube tech in the ship's engine. Much of it was empty space…" the Atom responded literally on top of a control panel.
"Now we're gettin' somewhere!" Kilowog thought, getting anxious.
"ALEX?" Kyle asked out loud.
"Yes, Kyle?" the AI responded.
"Did Stel have time to integrate the Boom Tube tech into a teleporting system?" Kyle asked.
"He did not." ALEX responded, "However…"
"I did." Kilowog responded. "What, did you think I was just gonna sit around and do nothing the last few days?"
"This kid should know me by now…" Kilowog thought with a smirk.
"Hawkgirl, you wanna touchdown and do some recon?" Kyle asked standing to his feet and putting the jacket on.
"What is this on the intercom now? Nirvana?" she asked putting her helmet back on and grabbing the cosmic staff.
"Nine Inch Nails. Nirvana's on the playlist though…" Kyle responded.
"Look at you trying to be Tom Cruise in that jacket..." Hawkgirl said out loud following Kyle down the hallway by his phone.
The two heroes boomed down to the surface and the alien city looked to be recently decimated. There looked to be no survivors. Kyle's gun was drawn, an energy field around his body as he flew forward with Hawkgirl as her wings were extended and pushing her on.
"Ray, how many more cities are on this moon?" Kyle asked.
"That is the only city, scanners aren't picking anything else up and there are no other life signs other than your own." The Atom responded from the ship's bridge. Kilowog was manning some automated defenses on the ship.
"What's the chances the other moon is similar to this one?" Kyle asked.
"Scanners are reading similar conditions but I haven't got a clear visual of the surface. Source Wall energy is strong on the surface of the other moon and Hal's energy may be in the area as well." The Atom responded.
"Hawkgirl and I are gonna look around a bit longer. See if there's any clues to who did this. We may have a fight on our hands." Kyle said flying through a wrecked city that was still smoldering fire in areas with hundreds of dead aliens.
"Kilowog and I are going to take the shuttle craft to the other moon and check things out. I'm going to take some samples and see if the other energy signature is Hal's ring or not. The Source Wall energy may have been responsible for some of this destruction." The Atom responded.
There were at least seventy-five to one hundred or so aliens in the camp on this unknown planet in an unknown sector. Hal Jordan helped where he could with making shelter for the survivors. Some of the aliens were humanoid and the red and white clothing probably meant they were from Rann. Other aliens such as some Tamaranians were more easily recognizable.
"If I didn't know better I'd think that was the Queen of her people, but in a refugee camp?!" Hal thought before noticing another human looking alien in the bunch gathered near the stream of water.
"You look like somebody I'd know back on Earth… you a Teen Titan?" Hal asked before the kid motioned to his hand where a ring would be.
"Oh, my ring? It's not working in these unknown sectors for some reason…" Hal began before the kid shook his head.
The young man kneeled down near some dirt or sand and motioned again to his hand before drawing a circle with an L in it and a star.
"No idea what the L stands for, but he seems like a good kid. Obviously a superhero from Earth with that costume… he just doesn't speak any English. Good ol' Jordan luck…" Hal thought to himself. "At least he acts like he knows what Lanterns are. Nobody else here has batted an eyelash at the sight of my torn up uniform.
From afar the blue skinned woman was walking among a group of refugees. She could understand everything that was being spoken in every language because of the Legion flight ring and translator on the pinky finger of her left hand. She didn't know how she understood everyone, or how they understood her, she just knew they needed a leader.
Thirteen days ago….
Hal uncovered his dim personal power battery but it didn't have enough energy to even light itself properly.
Twelve days ago….
Hal uncovered the battery once more and tried reciting the oath….
"In brightest day… In blackest night… no evil shall…" he paused before throwing the battery back into the rubble it was hidden in, "DAMN IT!!!"
Ten days ago….
"WAIT! I'VE GOT IT!!" Hal yelled before quieting back down while sitting near some refugees resting. "If I can convince one of the Tamaranians to kiss me they'll know my language instantly. Somebody will finally understand me…" Hal continued talking to himself looking rough with stubble on his face and a tired look in his eyes.
"The Queen would kill you herself if you tried something that foolish." The blue skinned woman said in response with her flying Skeets-like robot behind her.
Kyle and Hawkgirl continued to fly over the city of the dead. Bodies and blood were everywhere.
"I can't find any clues Hawkgirl. This looks like a mostly peaceful race of aliens. There's no markings from starships on the ground or in the vegetation from them flying overhead…." Kyle stated while Kendra was still within earshot.
"Regular Batman and Robin aren't we? I thought you've seen your fair share of galactic wars and crisis?" Hawkgirl responded touching down near Kyle.
"What do you mean?" Kyle asked.
"Look harder, Lantern. You can see it in the way the people on this rock were killed. There were multiple attackers. Heavier artillery than what was needed." Hawkgirl continued. "There being no trace of starships just means the tech they were using was super advanced. Electro-magnetic engines, maybe. Possibly large scale teleportation…"
"Like in those superhero movies back on Earth with way too convoluted endings and more plot-holes than Swiss cheese? We should check on Ray and Kilowog. Atom, do you copy? Ray?" Kyle exclaimed, "ALEX, are Atom and Kilowog out of range for communications?" he asked.
"There's an unknown energy effecting all communications and scanners on the other moon…" ALEX responded.
"ALEX, Boom Tube us back to the ship! We need to check on the others…" Kyle said in return, back in the air now with the winged Hawkgirl.
"The unknown energies are also now affecting teleportation systems. Hence the Atom and Kilowog taking a shuttle craft to the other moon…" ALEX continued.
Meanwhile on the other moon….
"Wog, you ever seen anything like this?!" the Atom asked from the backpack like area on the back of a personalized exploration mech.
"Looks like some kinda Rannian tech. Thought earlier I saw some Tamaranian tech too… but out here..?" Kilowog responded.
Suddenly the damaged red and white construction robot began sputtering and coming back to life. It was easily twice as large as the exploration mech Kilowog was piloting.
"Too bad Rayner's not here to see this. Big robots were always HIS thing…" Kilowog thought as the refurbished robot began approaching them on giant treads.

Pretty much my feelings.
...The young man kneeled down near some dirt or sand and motioned again to his hand before drawing a circle with an L in it and a star. . .
Ha. Should've known it would be a LoS story with you.
Not... exactly. You remember when the Guardians of the Galaxy were reimagined and went through probably a dozen or so different members before settling on a core team? It's like that. I decided LoSH characters weren't off the table since Phantom Girl is still showing up in the Terrifics and chose Ultra Boy for my story.
I've got a list of probably eight or nine characters at least to rotate in and out of the story as it moves beyond the initial arc. I honestly don't know what the *final* team will look like. A few familiar faces, some nobody's seen or heard of in awhile, there's even one or two originals I'm gonna throw into the mix. There's a few New Gods I enjoy writing, some characters from Omega Men, etc. This will be a little bit of everything cosmic from DC...
Made micros for all of the people showing up in this. A couple of them will be seen next chapter, and though I mentioned the Legion character being Ultra Boy before... I think I'm switching it up and making it Cosmic Boy for story purposes. He's also in this group shot... anyway a few micros you may have seen before with a bunch of new ones added into the mix. Let me know how excited this gets you guys!
EDIT: Added the more up to date looks I'm gonna be using, and I put Deep Space Deadman in to take the spot of Comet cause I only need one telepath... lol

All I've got left to do for the newest chapter is formatting everything and deciding which images I'm going to include. Things are about to start heating up, and chapter 4 will soon reveal the threats in this story! Any fan of the cosmic landscape of the DCU will enjoy this, with bits of lore taken from several corners of the universe.
While the inspiration for this team is the Guardians of the Galaxy as well as DC's R.E.B.E.L.S., in my mind this is like my own personal Infinity War/Endgame with my boy Kyle smack in the middle.
I'll have the new chapter up shortly!
Three Days Ago…
Hall of Justice, Justice League HQ…
Hawkgirl was on monitor duty and other members of the League were hanging around the building. The Atom was working with other scientists on something strange, and it appeared like Green Arrow was chatting with Vixen near the cafeteria and dining area. It was another slow and boring day at HQ when the scanners picked up a signal from deep space.
"This is Kilowog of the Green Lantern Corps. Superman? Aquaman? Is anybody home?" Kilowog said on the other end of the call.
"Hawkgirl of the Justice League, do you copy?" Hawkgirl responded before shouting back to the nearest open exit, "Atom!? Somebody, we've got a call from deep space and the communications are acting up! Can somebody help a girl out?"
"It's some technology disrupted by Source Wall energy back in the lab, Kendra. It's affecting more than just people. My apologies. Let me see what I can do with the control panel…" the Atom responded. "Did I mention this energy also messed with my belt? It's why I'm stuck at two feet tall…"
"I wasn't the Corps' first choice…" Hawkgirl thought.
"This is Kilowog of the Green Lantern Corps. Orion, are you getting' this?" spoke a construct of Kilowog's head and collar.
Orion and Mister Miracle were currently in an unknown location with what appeared to be bio-mechanical tendrils wrapping around them and attacking the two New Gods. The sudden appearance of a Green Lantern construct was a bit random.
"SALAAK!? IS THIS THE RIGHT SIGNAL…? YOU SURE ABOUT THAT, POOZER?" the construct seemingly yelled to the left of it at something the heroes couldn't see.
"Now isn't the time, Lantern." Orion stated before swatting the construct away while grabbing a robotic tendril from around his neck.
"I wasn't the Corps' second choice…" Hawkgirl continued thinking.
"I'm sorry, sir. The laws of this sector require up to date tags and United Planets registration to carry aliens from planet to planet. I'm going to have to take you into custody and tow your space cab…" an alien Green Lantern said into the window of Space Cabbie's personal star cruiser.
"I'm not even sure I was…" Hawkgirl continued musing.
Chapter 3: "…the third choice."
"We will contact General Zod personally, Senior Lantern Kilowog. The Kryptonian requires more political handling…" said one of the Guardians of the Universe to the large Lantern within some Oan communications tower.
Blue Valley, Nebraska…
Kendra Saunders sat outside on the front porch of a suburban home with a blonde haired teenager. Courtney Whitmore was better known in the superhero circles as Star Girl. However, she had seen better days.
"I'm so sorry. Pat's a good man. His heart's in the right place." Kendra said.
"He says his suit isn't the reason he's got health problems. He insists on watching over me any time I put my mask on… I just can't do this if he's going to kill himself trying to babysit me." Courtney responded with tears in her eyes.
"Everyone needs to take a break once in a while. I'm going into space soon just to get away from everything." Kendra said standing up. "If you're going to take a break, care if I borrow that staff of yours for a bit?"
Hawkgirl and Kyle Rayner touched down on the other moon just in time to see Kilowog and the Atom finish off the Rannian construction droid. Kilowog was piloting an exploration suit of the Atom's design. It had taken some damage, but for the most part the suit remained intact.
"You mean I missed a showdown between giant robots?! You couldn't give us fifteen minutes before taking off?" Kyle exclaimed walking up to Kilowog in the exploration suit with the two foot tall Atom basically riding in a tech'ed out backpack.
"The jet lag from Boom Tubing across sectors is enough to make anybody want to get out of the ship as soon as possible." The Atom responded climbing down from the suit's backpack apparatus. "I'm going to take some samples of that Source Wall debris over there…." He continued.
"Kilowog is quite the gear head. He used the same Boom Tube technology to get Ray and I to Oa in no time. With Darkseid missing and his forces scattered, Mother Box tech is scarce. And even if it's found it takes great power like that of the Guardians to really tap into the Box's full potential." Hawkgirl thought looking on at Kilowog and Kyle.
"The energy my scanner is picking up… it isn't Hal's ring energy. It's a combination of what appears to be repurposed tech from Rann, New Tamaran, other planets, as well as the Emergent Energy." the Atom said to the group walking up on debris with a glowing purple energy coming from it.
"It looks like somebody's amassed resources from planets on the other side of where the 'Wall was located." Kilowog suggested to Hawkgirl and Kyle, 'Wog still wearing the exo-suit.
"We need to get word back to Oa and check in with Rann, see if anybody's heard from Adam Strange…" Kyle replied, adding "Hawkgirl theorized large scale teleportation or possibly electro-magnetic technology. If both Rann and New Tamaran were both hit, there's a chance Braal was too…"
"It's the next galaxy over from them. How are you going to contact Oa without a ring way out here..?" Hawkgirl asked.
Ten Days Ago…
"You CAN understand me?! Why didn't you say something sooner?" Hal exclaimed, accidentally waking one of the other refugees in the make-shift shelter. The small robot continued to fly behind the blue skinned woman's head.
"This camp went from seventy-five refugees to nearly two hundred within a week. I am the only one who can understand them all…" the woman responded, "My name is A'Syleh."
"I noticed the Tamaranian Queen wasn't among the people like before. I'm a Green Lantern, whatever your people are planning… I can help." Hal replied as the two of them walked out of the shelter.
"I'm sorry but I do not know what a Green Lantern is. Most of us in the camp were born here. The invaders took slaves from other worlds." A'Syleh began before the veteran Lantern put the pieces together.
"And these are just the ones who managed to escape." Hal said figuring out most of the situation.
"I will take you to the leaders from beyond where the great wall once stood. I'm sure they would have heard of your kind." The woman continued as her flying robot paused and turned to look behind them.
"It's not like we can email or text the Guardians on his phone." Hawkgirl thought.
"Back on the ship, I have a few Oan Memory Emeralds." Kyle said in response to Hawkgirl's question.
"Think I remember John mentioning those once before…" Hawkgirl mentioned to Kyle as the Atom began approaching the group.
The Atom had a chunk of glowing purple rock in a canister over his shoulder. He seemed tired, looked like he was getting sick.
"I got the sample but I don't… my suit…" he began before falling over.
"We have to get him back to the ship!" Kyle exclaimed, picking the tiny hero up like a child. The Atom's hands began to swell and enlarge and as if the weight factored in the arms stretched in length as well.
Near a dead body where the Atom found his sample was what remained of the chunk of 'Emergent Energy'. The power from it still crackled in purple exotic fashion and several alien bugs approached the glowing debris. They not only began to grow in size, parts of them started to turn translucent as well.
"What's going to hit us next?" Hawkgirl thought from the confines of the shuttle craft.
Between the two moons, or perhaps even sub-planets, was a large asteroid belt. The asteroids could be seen by the group as they took the shuttle back to their star cruiser. The heroes however, didn't see the ship hidden within the belt. A dark silhouette of a thin alien looked on from within. The figure pressed a button on a control panel and began to seemingly report.
"Oan Memory Emeralds. Hybrid Mother Box tech. The Source Wall debris did something to their scientist but they continued to take a sample to study." the thin figure stated.
"And their leader?" asked a deep, somewhat grizzly voice.
"He's an agent of the Guardians, but he's not a regular Lantern." the thin alien silhouette replied.
Back on the ship…
"Ray you need to rest! Please?!" exclaimed Hawkgirl, her helmet on the floor and her wings retracted.
"I have to make repairs to the exploration suit and then study the fragment. People are depending on me back home!" the Atom pleaded in a dazed state still trying to come to grips with how his arms and hands appeared.
"I'll fix the suit, poozer. Ya won't be much use to anybody back home dead. Get some rest, I'm not askin'." Kilowog grunted as the Atom finally passed out.
"I'll take him to the med bay. You should probably contact Oa with your magic crystal things. How will they find us though?" Hawkgirl asked as she picked up the Atom, now with his helmet removed and his glasses falling off of his face.
"Well I… um…" Kyle began, and continued to go nowhere. "I got nothin'. I have no…"
"I have been plotting the constellations and empty space as well as sub-planets. Currently we are in Negative Sector 0-0-0-2." ALEX announced.
Negative Sector 0003
"The planet Ougellon doesn't possess the technology of other planets. The invaders clearly just came to pillage for food and slaves. They underestimated the warriors of my people. Their largest ship was grounded…" the blue skinned alien continued to explain to Hal as they came upon another shelter a bit more guarded and secure than the others. Her robot turned once again and checked their steps. Something was watching them. Hal stepped in to a crowd of somewhat familiar faces; the Queen of Tamaran, Tigorr of the Omega Men, Sardath of Rann, and…
"ADAM STRANGE?!" Hal exclaimed as his old friend turned around from a make-shift meeting table.
"Hal F***ing Jordan… why am I not surprised?" Adam approached and shook the hand of Hal.

I'm only passably familiar with LoSH, so those are mostly names to me.
The conception of the JL feels like the JLU show here, which is a nice one—where it's really big, cosmic, and something's always going on.
The tentacles thrown in for Japanese fans?
I was always a fan of the JLU and an expanded roster in general so that's how I always portray them. And once you're League you're pretty much always in the club. Green Arrow, Vixen, and Guy Gardner were in a few of the last issues of Damage and represented the League for example.
The tentacles.... will come into play in the 2nd arc if I take it that far. And I'm having fun with the story right now and know exactly where I'd take at least 15-20 chapters total in the 3 arcs I've got plotted. The next chapter will be from the POV of the Atom, with the 5th chapter being Hal's, and the last chapter in the first arc will come back around to Kyle Rayner. I wanted to play with the different points of view and so far I've enjoyed getting in the characters' heads. Atom will be interesting now that the Emergent Energy has jacked him up twice. I can't wait for the enemies' reveal next chapter.
JL Headquarters
"So Hal's missing in deep space?" the Atom asked.
"Beyond where the Source Wall once stood if I understood Kilowog's message. In three Earth days Kyle Rayner will be leading a rescue mission into unknown space in search of him." Hawkgirl responded.
"This one time a couple years back…" The Atom began to think.
"I could study the emergent energy where it originated and lend a hand. Maybe there's some crucial piece of information out there. I can bring along this exploration exo-suit since I'm stuck this way for now…" Atom mentioned, knowing the Green Lantern Corps were asking for whomever they could get on such short notice.
"…I was lost in the Multiverse. Kyle Rayner was one of the heroes who rescued me. And before that, Hal Jordan helped me out of a few dark places as well."
"Your intensity is $#!+." Hawkgirl stated looking disappointed with the small statured scientist.
"Excuse me?!" the Atom responded in shock. "Did she just..?" he thought briefly for a few moments.
"Estevez' character… it's from Breakfast Club." Hawkgirl said now smirking. "The fact still stands, Ray, you're not you right now. Maybe it's the malfunction in your belt… It's like you've got even more things going on in that head of yours than before…."
"I got the reference. You think I really lack intensity though?" Atom asked.
"Yeah big brain, I'm gonna need…" Hawkgirl began to respond.
Chapter 4: "A Little More."
"So I passed out during your speech about getting rest and she just…?" Atom began asking.
"Picked ya up like a kid and put ya in bed, poozer." Kilowog stated while still working on the exploration suit.
"Knowing Hawkgirl, she'll never let me live that down…" Atom thought to himself.
"The emergent energy is messing with my equipment and I can't get any concrete test results. Though the tests I'm running on myself to try and figure out how to get back to normal height and rid of these gorilla arms…" Ray Palmer began saying before Kendra came into the bay area Kilowog was using as a work space.
"Aw c'mon Ray, I think they're cute." Hawkgirl quipped, sporting a tank top and sports bra, however still wearing her armored bottoms.
"My hands are the size they would normally be at my regular size, but I'm still stuck at this height with elongated arms. By the way, the work on the left arm is amazing, Kilowog." Ray said trying to change the conversation.
"It was like carrying a two year old to bed…" Kendra said with a bit of a laugh, to which 'Wog also cracked a smile.
"There she goes ladies and gentlemen. I've been mutated by this strange energy twice now and she's making jokes like back on Earth…" Atom thought to himself still admiring the large alien's craftsmanship on the exploration suit.
"Don't talk down to him Kendra, its more than just personal at this point. Though I wonder how he'd manage in a match against those Wonder Twins' alien monkey…" Kyle said walking in now smiling as well but still showing Ray respect when entering the room.
"Everybody's got jokes like Joaquin Phoenix today…" the Atom mused after Kyle approached the group.
"Scanners are showing multiple planets and moons capable of sustaining several dozen different types of life forms. The ship is currently approaching the edge of the sector…" ALEX announced over the coms.
"Kilowog does fine work. I just hope the suit is ready before we come across more hostiles. I don't want to be a hindrance in a fight." Ray thought as he picked up a blowtorch and handed it to Kilowog.
Nine Days Ago…
Oegellon, Negative Sector 0003
Hal Jordan walked around the camp site with Adam Strange and it was daytime once again. They passed A'Syleh as they talked about the current situation.
"The people of this planet doomed themselves the minute they grounded the invaders' main ship." Adam Strange stated.
"So THAT'S how I managed to stay alive for weeks. The planet itself heals people…" Hal responded.
"They've taken prisoners, stolen tech, all in an attempt to gain enough resources to rule the uncharted sectors. Now, they want this planet because of the effect it has on people. The Queen of Tamaran and her daughter, Sardath, as well as Tigorr and I escaped with a few dozen soldiers after about a week here." Adam continued to explain.
Down near the creek the young man from the future, also known as Cosmic Boy, was using his magnetic powers to make what little bits of metal he could find dance in the sky. He was taken by surprise by a young Tamaranean girl in a brown cloak. The girl kissed him on the lips and quickly bounced back off of him.
"If the royal guards weren't lying, YOU should be able to understand ME now!" the young girl stated in suspense. "Can you..?" she asked as she questioned what had just happened.
"I… can?! That's an interesting power." Cosmic Boy said in an amused kind of way.
"I've got a few others. Runs in my family I think." She responded in a flirty manner. "My name is Kamerand'r. "
"My name is Rokk. I go by Cosmic Boy in the Legion… I think… I'm from the future. My memories though… I think it's the strange energies all around. I'm used to my flight ring protecting me from that kind of thing but… I lost it somehow." Cosmic Boy said in his response to the fiery young Tamaranean.
"The future sounds better than being stuck on another world with your mother." The girl said crouching down near the creek.
"That doesn't sound too bad. At least there's one person you know." Cosmic Boy responded as Hal Jordan and Adam Strange seemed to disappear back into the makeshift meeting area in the distance.
"That one person is the Queen. And this is the third time we've lost a planet to invading forces or some sort of cosmic crisis. There's been talk among our people of dethroning her…" Kamerand'r said sounding defeated by proxy.
"Wonder how long this guy's been trailing us…" thought Ray Palmer on top of a control panel.
"Scanners are picking up somebody with a cloaked ship tailing us. What do you want to do, Kyle?" he asked from one of the stations on the bridge of the ship.
"We don't know how long they've been watching us but for now we'll play it by ear. This ship would make Han Solo wanna switch movie franchises and for now they're keeping their distance…" Kyle replied before suddenly an explosion went off on the right side of the star cruiser.
"Talk to me Kilowog, that didn't sound good…" Kyle continued after he and everyone else were nearly shaken out of their stations.
"Poozer on our trail must've got close enough to the ship to plant a bomb." Kilowog stated.
"Probably while we were checking out those moons…" Hawkgirl commented activating the rest of her armor, "You want me to go say hello?" she then asked.
"She's no Batman, but odds are she's right…" the Atom thought looking at his teammate.
"ALEX? How many jumps until the next planet?" Kyle asked out loud.
"Approximately three. However, the damage the ship suffered will need to be addressed before the Mother Box technology can be used correctly. Currently we are on course to make an emergency landing on the nearest moon…" ALEX responded.
Moments later….
Kyle and Hawkgirl exited the ship with weapons drawn. Like before there were several crashed vehicles. It appeared a lunar outpost had been compromised. Bodies were everywhere, bloodied and broken, belonging to both sides of the battle. Near an oddly familiar crashed star cruiser one of the ravaged bodies of an enemy began to move ever so slightly. Source Wall debris was once again splitting the ground open off in the distance.
"Kyle, Kendra? Are communications still working?" someone said from the ship over a com link.
"There's static in the signal but we can hear you. What's up?" Kyle responded.
"I'm definitely picking up traces of Hal's ring. Emergent Energy is far enough away that our scans are more accurate. Something is messing with our frequency though…" Atom informed from the ship with Kilowog manning the exo-suit.
"What is… this… now?" the Atom thought focusing his eyes on energy readings.
A loud hum could be heard aloud on the moon shortly before a small army of additional berserkers and space pirates were zeta beamed to the surface.
"That's definitely Zeta Beam tech, Rayner." Hawkgirl commented flexing her wings and taking to the air.
The crawling zombified corpse of a berserker approached Kyle and surprised him grabbing at his leg.
"HOLY $#!+!?!" Kyle screamed blasting half the guy's jaw off.
"Not… enemy…" it struggled to say, "Bos… Boston…" it then waved it's hand using the tech in the suit to blast an approaching enemy.
The ship that had been following the team could be seen in the distance passing the moon and heading towards the planet. The figure within was Shiro Nova.
"I am approaching your current position…" he stated over a communications device as he grabbed a blaster and strapped it to his back.
"Who exactly are we up against, Adam?" Hal asked his old friend around the meeting area of the Queen, Sardath, and Tigorr…
Ougellon's moon, Now…
Kyle, Hawkgirl, Kilowog in the Atom's exo-suit, and the zombified berserker who had picked up a skull like helmet off of another corpse fought against the small army. The newest addition to the team wore black and red armor, and for a reanimated corpse with half his jaw blown off he couldn't be heard over the chaos. Kendra stabbed through an enemy with the cosmic staff she'd borrowed and then blasted other enemies in the distance with its energy. Kilowog was taking on larger brutes. Kyle dragged another injured aggressor with horns in similar black and red armor to the side behind a damaged wall and put his gun to its head.
"I'm only gonna ask this once… who sent you?" he asked.
Nova's ship had landed and upon exit he walked up on his current employer whom already had Fatality at his side with her battle staff in hand. An army of other berserkers and brutes of at least four or five species were on the move behind them, one even sporting the jetpack and gear of Adam Strange. The bigger alien's armor didn't look like it used to, and before he had never been much for capes. He had large boots to fill with his father missing, and when light peered under his hood his identity was unmistakable when his eyes crackled with energy.
"Grayven."

Was America founded as a Christian nation? This is the title of Prof. John Fea's book and the topic of our podcast this week. Prof. Fea presents a nuanced answer to this question, showing that although that the British American colonies were overwhelmingly Christian in culture in the late 18th century, the Founding was not necessarily a Christian event. We cover what it means to be a "Christian nation," and examine whether the Founders lived up to Christian ideals, including a discussion of just war theory. This is a great podcast to pair with next week's discussion featuring Mark David Hall.

About a month ago, I had the great opportunity of interviewing Jill and Warren Schimpff of Schimpff's Confections in Jeffersonville, Indiana. Schimpff's Confections is a fourth-generation family-owned candy company that started in Jeffersonville in 1891. As you can imagine, Jill and Warren have many stories from their years of candy making and their family history in the business.
To sum it up in a few words is challenging, because they have so much knowledge and history to share. Adjacent to their candy kitchen and shop, is a candy museum that they've created; free and open to the public. Featuring memorabilia from across the country and centuries, the candy museum seeks to remind people of their childhoods and capture the magical history of candy.
Warren's favorite English Toffee, individually wrapped "Modjeskas", hard candy fish, drop roller cinnamon red hots, and Jill's favorite ribbon candy.
One of the first things Jill and Warren told me is that they identify themselves as "preservationists" and set out with three goals: To preserve their family business, to preserve the community and to collect candy history. Taking over the family business in 1990, as the 4th generation had not been their initial intent. But when given the opportunity, they saw the great potential for their ownership in the business to shape the community that they loved. "By being an anchor here in town, it has helped the town to grow," Jill said.
Beyond boosting the main street with their thriving confectionery, they are seeking to capture some of the local lore as well. The Modjeska, a caramel covered marshmallow is one of Schimpff's classics. Named after Polish actress Helena Modjeska, another local candy-maker named the sweet after her when she visited the area on tour in the late 1800s. While it's called a "caramello" anywhere else, the name Modjeska stuck locally and has been called that ever since in the Jeffersonville region. In case you haven't heard Helena Modjeska, Warren points out that she "was a very, very famous Polish actress... equivalent to Madonna."
For Jill and Warren, "Keeping memories alive for the old folk, while making new memories for kids" is an important value and one that is evident the moment you walk into their shop.
Many early candy-makers in the US dating back to the 1800s were immigrants who were looking to make a living with minimal investment. According to Jill, "with a stove, a copper pot, a stirrer, a table and a few ingredients, they could make candy to make a living." As German immigrants, Warren's relatives started Schimpff's so many years ago with this bootstrapping mentality that you could make a living with the simplicity of candy-making.
Many of the early candy-makers were not trained in candy-making, but had moved to the US and sought employment. With a knack for cooking, they'd set-up shop on the sidewalk and crank out candies for customers walking by. While this isn't possible in quite the same way today, with stricter health regulations and restrictions, the idea still holds true that you don't have to be an expert to make candy. In fact, it's one of my favorite aspects of candy making! Because anyone can make candy, often times people know someone who does, and it creates a special connection between the candy, the candy maker and the recipient. And often times I've found, that these relationships are inter-generational, creating a connection where stories and memories are shared and made.
"In the old days, you only made candies in the wintertime, because that's when your humidity was low" said Jill Schimpff. In the summer months, candy makers turned to soda fountains, with cool, refreshing sweet drinks instead. For my own business, I've thought about this a great deal, as people are quick to question why I don't make candy year-round. To me, it just makes sense - when there is such abundance of sweet fruits and fresh food, we hardly need a piece of candy to keep us going. At most, a cool drink and a scoop of ice cream will do. But when the cold winter rolls in and we return to our hearty cuisine of roots, grains and meats, it's a real treat to have a sweet piece of hard candy or a smooth and creamy caramel!
Before Jill and Warren took over the business in 1990, it was being managed by Warren's cousin. While they had mastered many candy-making recipes and techniques, their family had a terrible time making caramel - "it was always soup" Warren recalled, "we ate it with a spoon!" While looking for a job, Jill and Warren met a woman from Sweden. In payment for a favor, she shared with them her family's recipe for caramel. It's been their go-to recipe since then. "All of our caramel products that we are making today uses that shared recipe," Warren recalled. It changed their candy making in the shop and it seems the memory of their chance encounter is a memory that won't soon leave the story of their caramel.
Ultimately, "people are still looking for an experience... People are still in love with an experience and punching a number into a computer (to shop online) is not an experience, it's a way of getting something, but not a way of enjoying the effort," Jill says. While I have had the great opportunity of connecting with many customers online, I do agree that there is a bit of extra magic involved in the experience of visiting a candy shop. I can say from my experience, that the magic of candy is ever present in the Schimpff's candy shop and it is an experience worth seeking!
When I asked Jill and Warren what their favorite things about being candy-makers were, they were quick to remark that they loved the instant feedback: "When they say, 'Damn that's good', it's instant gratification. It makes you feel that you're really doing something," Warren declared. Jill added, one of her favorite things is that "the customers that you're dealing with are usually in good moods! Because they're getting candy! You don't get a bunch of grumpy people."
"One of the most gratifying things too, is having a group of elementary school kids visit... you can't fool a little kid. They realize there's something special here," Warren says with a warmth in his tone.
At the conclusion of my interview, I asked Jill and Warren if they thought they'd succeeded with their "preservationist" goals. With a resounding "YES!", Jill and Warren made it quite clear that their little candy shop, filled with history, memories and sweets, had changed the landscape of Jeffersonville for better. Just a quite stroll down the main street, and it's evident. The cross-walks feature candy pieces, an homage to their impact, and the storefronts are filled with unique shops and restaurants, thriving in-part to the anchor store of Schimpff's Confections. As Jill and Warren move towards retirement, they are training the next generation of the Schimpff family. With a rich history and positive impact, the Schimpff's story is inspiring, and it's exciting to see where it goes next. As Jill so astutely points out, "you can't guarantee the future, but you can work hard towards it."

"Heaven Knows showcases Terry Manning's talent . . . [an] amazing album."
—EyesIn Magazine
"Manning has amazing talent as both a songwriter and instrumentalist. Highly Recommended."
"Manning is one of the most respected engineers and producers in music history — Led Zeppelin III, the first two Big Star records, Al Green, ZZ Top, the Staple Singers, Albert King, Shakira, Lenny Kravitz, and literally over 100 others have benefitted from his work in either or both capacities. On West Texas Skyline: A Tribute to Bobby Fuller, Manning delivers a 12-song set of tunes associated with Fuller and his biggest influence, Buddy Holly (also from West Texas), as well as a pair of excellent originals. West Texas Skyline is not only one man's tribute to a criminally underrated artist, but a heartfelt articulation of rock & roll's roots."
In addition to owning and running the world-famous Compass Point Studios in the Bahamas, Terry Manning's career has spanned decades where he has consistently partnered with the uppermost echelon of the music world's elite. Now, Manning steps forward as a recording artist himself, in walking to the other side of the glass for his new album, Heaven Knows.
"I got into music initially as an artist, and to be an artist," says a smiling Manning. "I just got diverted somewhere along the way in making the records for, you know, like a hundred other artists."
The near-legendary status and cult-success of Manning's first record as a recording artist in 1970, Home Sweet Home, left Manning with an even deeper desire over the years to return to his early artist-roots. "Through the years there's always been this nagging inner voice asking: 'When are you going to get back to doing your own songs, and making your own recordings?' This new record is me answering that inner voice as genuinely as I can, and with all my heart."
Manning's recent road back to being the artist he started out as began in 2013, with his critically acclaimed tribute album to mentor Bobby Fuller, West Texas Skyline. Of the album, All Music Guide writes, "Without sounding like a revivalist, Manning digs deep . . . West Texas Skyline is not only one man's tribute to a criminally underrated artist, but a heartfelt articulation of rock & roll's roots."
Many of those roots come into play in strong fashion on this new record as well—the echoes and influences of The Beach Boys, The Beatles, Big Star, Al Green, and Otis Redding—each and all readily recognizable throughout the nine originals and four re-imagined classics on Heaven Knows.
"Going in to create my own music and sing my own songs for the first time in such a long time, I was pretty emotional about it. I wanted to explore the human soul, and delve into the depths." Manning adds, "People have such a deep felt need for loving and being loved, and more than anything I wanted to try to capture that overarching human emotion in these songs and with this album."
Manning's emotional connection and inspirational commitment to the album is matched by a commitment of perspiration as well: in addition to producing, engineering, mixing, and mastering Heaven Knows, Manning also played most of the instruments and sang all the vocals on the new record. "These are the kinds of things I do on so many of the records I work on, it felt right to do the same for a record of my own."
The powerful statement this new album makes—both through the songs, and by the artist who's performing them—does answer that inner voice from long ago, and it does so once and for all: Terry Manning is an artist to be reckoned with no matter which side of the glass he's standing on, and Heaven Knows proves it.

An "inner commitment to serving"
Many of us recall a favorite teacher or special mentor, someone who brought enthusiasm to our learning or special guidance to our personal growth. For hundreds of Dartmouth Medical School students and Dartmouth College premeds during the years 1923 to 1960, Dr. Rolf C. Syvertsen provided both.
Syvertsen, a member of the faculty and then dean at Dartmouth Medical School for more than 30 years, spent his entire career at DMS. He joined the faculty immediately upon his graduation from DMS in 1923 to teach anatomy and histology and to serve as secretary of the School. As secretary he was, in effect, the admissions officer, admissions committee, financial aid officer, registrar, and librarian. Named a professor of anatomy in 1938, assistant dean in 1944, and dean a year later, he continued to run the School largely single-handedly until the mid-1950s. From the beginning, "Sy" (as he was widely known) had a special sense of obligation to students and, because of this, his death in an automobile accident in 1960 was an especially tragic event for the many alumni who remembered him so fondly.
To honor the memory of the man who influenced so many Dartmouth medical students, several alumni took the initiative in 1984 to establish the Rolf C. Syvertsen Memorial Fund. Led by Fletcher McDowell, DC and DMS '45, and one of his Dartmouth College classmates, the late Jim Andrew, the organizers of the scholarship fund originally had hopes of raising $300,000. The goal was later adjusted to $1 million, but the total still kept climbing. Today, the Syvertsen Fund has a market value in excess of $1.4 million.
In April, Sarah Johansen, a 1989 DMS graduate and the current chair of the Syvertsen Scholarship Committee, will join other committee members in celebrating Rolf Syvertsen's finest qualities by recognizing DMS students of today who exhibit those same qualities. The committee is composed of alumni who attended DMS during the Syvertsen era, plus former recipients of the Syvertsen Fund awards. The Syvertsen Scholarship Committee will this year, as it does every year, choose a Syvertsen Fellow from among several nominated students who are finishing their third year; the other nominees are also honored, as Syvertsen Scholars. The nominations are made by DMS deans on the basis of academic excellence and participation in community service. A cash prize is given to the student selected as the Syvertsen Fellow, and scholarship awards, based also on financial need, go to the students named as Scholars. The first Syvertsen Fellow and Scholars were selected in 1986, and the committee has met every year since then.
Johansen reflects on Rolf Syvertsen's unusual role in the lives of his students: "Rolf Syvertsen might turn heads today with his style, which some could interpret as intrusive. But he made others' lives his responsibility in a way that for those days was appropriate. He cared tremendously, and he wasn't afraid to have an impact on people's lives. He was looking beyond himself and investing his time and energy on someone else--however much controversy that might create.
"He was not afraid to be a mentor," she goes on, "or to have a leadership role in people's lives. Today, with volunteerism at an all-time low, you have to wonder if some of that hasn't gotten lost. This award is trying to reward people who do reach out, who go beyond their personal comfort level to achieve service in the broadest sense."
Johansen explains that the committee members, in making their selection, use criteria that reflect what Rolf Syvertsen worked so hard to foster in the students of his day and what Sy himself embodied: scholastic excellence of the highest order, breadth of human concern, community spirit, selfless mentoring of other students, and a deep love of medicine and of sharing their knowledge of it.
"This is truly a unique award at DMS," Johansen notes. "It is one of the only scholarships that will show up on a student's record and, more importantly, it is an award that is sincerely recognizing excellence--all-around excellence--in academics and in a student's commitment to . . . the world around him or her."
It is clear that out of all his many duties and responsibilities, personal knowledge of and involvement in the lives of his students were among Rolf Syvertsen's highest priorities. The manifestations of that commitment are legendary.
Melvin Britton, DMS '58, has written about Sy's humanistic qualities: "Each of us felt that the dean took a personal interest in us. . . . In the fall of my second year of medical school, I married the love of my life. Dr. Sy was the one who stood as a father for me. This act of personal caring and intervention typified him. He was, in a sense, the 'father' of generations of DMS students during his time."
"The people who knew Sy and who wanted to create a memorial fund in his name," Johansen observes, "really believe in Dartmouth and its ability to support and create wonderful physicians, and they're very excited about the kinds of physicians being nominated as Syvertsen Scholars. It is very meaningful for them that their alma mater is producing such wonderful physicians, with the qualities that they feel are so important, and that those qualities extend beyond the classroom."
Johansen feels the award encourages students to continue doing meaningful things with their lives: starting or participating in new programs, tutoring undergraduates and peers, engaging in mission work or relief work. "These are students who do a lot with what they've been given," Johansen says. "We're looking for students who are going to have an impact wherever they are, something that will have an impact beyond their world. We look for evidence of an inner commitment to serving others, which was one of the more obvious qualities of Rolf Syvertsen."
Merlin DuVal, DMS '44 tells a story characteristic of Sy's influence: "My most treasured memory of Sy was of his paternalistic ability to help each of us to work things out. In my case, I stood 21st in a class of 22. Consequently, when it came time to transfer for the third and fourth years, I picked Cornell, but was turned down. On learning this, Sy immediately got in touch with me and assured me that the school would change its mind. I'm not sure quite how he did it, but he was successful in persuading the school to accept me, and that was that." After Cornell, DuVal spent two years in the Navy and then finished his surgical training. He went on to a distinguished career that included numerous honors and resulted in a number of important surgical innovations. In 1963, he became the founding dean of the University of Arizona College of Medicine, and, in 1973, he was appointed assistant secretary of health in what was then the federal Department of Health, Education, and Welfare.
Johansen says the Syvertsen awards embody a philosophy of living beyond medical school. "Medical school is not four years out of a your life, but four years of your life. You're developing patterns for your entire life, how you treat your peers, how you relate to community," she explains. "These things have to be treated as valuable parts of your life and be supported while you're in medical school and that's what DMS and this award is doing, much as Rolf Syvertsen did in his time."

I offer a strong character result, as I believe you can only deliver your song artistically only if you record and mix it according to the message you want to deliver. I also offer affordable services so hopefully can help even more people to express their emotion through a record.
The service I can offer are the following.
song production: mixing, mastering, restoration, vocal tuning.
Having worked under limited circumstances and low quality recording most of the time, I have a better understanding of audio enhancement and restoration, which is my specialization. My degree in physics with audio study concentration helps me to back it up. Currently I'm working as main music producer of Screamtuner Creative Studio.
Gears are important, but knowledge and creativity are more important especially in this digital era. I don't have a Hollywood-style studio but it's enough to produce a similar or sometimes better quality than a 100k $ worth studio. I specialized in Alternative Rock genre, even though I'm quite versatile so I'm ready for any challenge.

Veteran Ashley Stephenson came into the women's baseball World Cup with the mindset that the tournament could be her last as a player.
Now that she's leaving with a bronze medal after a dramatic win over the United States, the third baseman from Mississauga, Ont., isn't quite sure she's ready to give it up.
Stephenson drove in two runs as part of a five-run 10th inning after Daphnee Gelinas broke the tie with an RBI single, and Canada held on to defeat the host United States 8-5 in Viera, Fla., on Friday.
"I was talking to Kate Psota, another veteran on the team, and she was like: 'I don't know how we can hang it up after this. That was just way too much fun,'" Stephenson said with a laugh. "We just kind of chuckled to ourselves and left the room without saying anything else — so yeah, it will be a cliffhanger for the next little bit.
With international baseball rules in play, the teams began their respective halves of the extra innings with runners on first and second. Neither team managed to push a run across over the eighth and ninth despite plenty of chances on both sides.
Gelinas finally broke through with a run-scoring single off Stacy Piagno in the top of the 10th — her fourth RBI of the game after a three-run homer in the fifth — and Anne-Sophie Lavalee made it 5-3 with a bases-loaded hit by pitch. Mia Valke drove in another and Stephenson followed with her two-run base hit.
Right-hander Allison Schroder, competing in her first World Cup, allowed two runs in the bottom of the 10th before getting a double play to end the game.
Stephenson, a high school teacher, has played in each of the eight World Cups since the tournament's inception in 2004. Psota, of Burlington, Ont., has done the same while manager Andre Lachance has skipped the team from the beginning.
This World Cup marked Lachance's last at the helm of the women's national program.
Canada won silver at the last tournament in South Korea in 2016, losing to No. 1-ranked Japan in the championship final. The Canadians, ranked No. 2, have finished in the top 4 in every World Cup and have six medals — four bronze and two silvers.
Japan beat Taiwan for its sixth consecutive gold medal later Friday.
Gelinas had given Canada a 3-2 lead with her three-run homer in the top of the fifth inning. The second baseman from Repentigny, Que., connected on a 3-1 pitch from Brittany Schutte with one out, sending the ball over the right-field fence and scoring Kaitlyn Ross and Nicole Luchanski.
Canada was two outs away from victory when the U.S. tied the game on a Malaika Underwood double off Schroder in the bottom of the seventh.
The Americans had scored two in the first inning on a single and a bases-loaded hit batter from Canada's Amanda Asay, who was starting two days after pitching a complete game shutout against Venezuela.
The right-hander from Prince George, B.C., who's in the process of completing a PhD in forestry at UBC, worked 5 2/3 innings before being replaced by the 16-year-old Schroder. The Fruitvale, B.C., native inherited a runner on third, but struck out pinch hitter Samantha Cobb to end the inning.
Schroder was one of two 16-year-olds on a Canadian team that blended youth with experience. Five more players on the roster were under 18.
"The future is right now for sure for this program." Stephenson said. "There's some veterans that were key, Psota had an unbelievable tournament, Luchanski is always so good. But the young girls really are the future and they're here and they're ready.

I wasn't sure what to expect from myself this weekend. I'd committed to coming up to Toronto over a month back. It's not that I"m not in OK form, it just that I'm in OK form. Whatever my thoughts were a month ago, alot has changed, so they aren't really pertinent now.
They field was pretty good, but not super deep. Tim Johnson and Jeremy Powers were the cream. Then Andy Jaques-Maynes, Matt Shiver, plus most of the best Canadians. And a bunch of others that have been going fast so far this season.
Both courses were awesome, but completely different. Saturday's was a pretty flat course with lots of off camber riding. And some rain came down on top of the 40 degree temperatures. That made the course pretty slick from the start. And it got slicker the whole hour. Luckily, I'm alright in the mud. But, unluckily, I wasn't having the best pedaling day of the year. It wasn't be any means the worst, but it could of been better. I got myself all the way up to 2nd after half a lap, but that wasn't to be. They was a pretty long steep climb that became a run up the first lap and nearly all remaining laps. After Tim Johnson had punched out and Jeremy Powers messed around in the pits changing bikes/wheels/ whatever, then punched out, there wasn't anyone really left to race with. Nicolas Weighall was in no-mans-land behind the CyclocrossWorld.com riders and then Andy Jaques-Manes and Matt Shiver and I riding around behind him. Molly Cameron was hanging tough for a while, but never gained much ground on us. I fell only once, hard on my right shoulder. Then I screwed up a couple times and got gapped from Andy and Matt. Finally, I decided to try to ride all the climbs instead on run, thinking I was going to be crippled for Sunday if I didn't. That was way slower, but lots easier on the legs and back. It didn't really pay off, I was still pretty sore Sunday morning. I ended up 6th, which is OK UCI points. 18. Nearly the same as 3rd in a UCI C2 race.
Sunday was completely a different race. Up and down a small ski hill. Nearly the most climbing possible in a cyclo-x. I got a pretty miserable start. I realized that my right arm wasn't working that well in the morning, but lifting the bike the first time over the barriers was nearly impossible. I wasn't worried because I thought the race was going to be one of attrition and I could manage the torn rotatorcuff thing. Then it started to rain. The climb had two steep pitches in it. Both just 30 meters or less. They got so greasy that you had to climb on your seat and pedal very fluid. That's not something I'm good at. Probably actually a better description would be that is something I'm bad at. And it showed. I was out of the top 15 the first two laps, but within striking distant of 5th still. Then, just when I started figuring out the whole situation and got going, I broke a spoke in my rear wheel. In retrospect it was a mistake, but at the time, I thought I could still ride into a good position without changing my wheel. I thought it was going to take too long and I wouldn't have enough time to pick off enough riders. I hardly picked anyone off at all. The last two laps it started drying up enough so I could climb the hill with my pedaling ability. I started going pretty good, but I was way too far back. I caught 3 or 4 guys and ended up getting 12th. Finishing, I spun my wheel and it was hitting one side of the brakes pretty seriously. Whatever. I wasn't really out of energy, I just couldn't allocate the power I had properly. Tim Johnson made up for his 2nd place finish to his team mate from the day before and won handily. Then Jeremy Powers, Andy Jacquest-Maynes, etc.
I felt pretty good today (Sunday) and am alittle disappointed that I didn't have a better finish, but that is cycling. I'm thinking about going out to the East coast to the New Jersey UCI races next weekend. I need to race more. And I want to see how fast everyone else is going. Obviously Tim and Jeremy are going real fast. Ok. Monday is flying all day, so it's a write off. Hopefully the weather in Kansas is alot better than Toronto. I'm not ready for winter just yet.
Tim Johnson in the mud.
Congratulations on the placing. The New York Times covered the event.
