Remember any movement is better than no movement at all.
UNITED STATES—Exercise, I dread it, but I know in my bones it is something I have to do, even if I'm burnt out and exhausted. When you exercise it helps you stay active, and at the same time improves your overall health. You cannot just sit in the bed or on the couch all day and eat junk and expect your health not to take a tumble. I have a very busy schedule during the week; when I say that I mean it.
I'm on average working 10-12 hour days at least 2-3 times during the week. As a result, when I get done with work, I'm burnt out and I mean the only thing I want to do is hit the bed. However, my mind perks up and tells me that I have to get my bum off the couch and get it in motion. Some people say if you're not working out an adequate amount of time it will not help your overall health. I'm not a believer of that assumption.
Any form of movement is better than no movement at all. I would argue each of us can take at least 10-15 minutes each day to do intense jogging, cycling, biking or working on the elliptical. If you don't have any of those machines you can do jumping jacks, push-ups or sit-ups. I'm going to repeat that phrase because it is very important: any form of movement is better than no movement at all. I find a way to try to get on that elliptical or bike and power through my exhaustion to try to get my body in decent shape and healthy to some degree.
Are there times where I absolutely don't want to exercise? Without a doubt and I know I'm not the only American who feels this way. So how do you motivate yourself? Think about your health. Think about not having to visit the doctor because of bad eating habits that have contributed to high blood pressure, stress or other ailments. Am I saying if you eat right you will not get sick? No, but we know what you put in your mouth does indeed contribute to some of the health issues we encounter later on.
Exercise is not just good for your physical health, but it's good for your mental health. You may be surprised to realize that exercise can help calm the nerves, not to mention to decompress that stress that you may be experiencing. If I'm tense with stress, I've seen situations where if I work out that stress starts to cease to exist. If you're worried about something in your personal or family life, a few moments of intense exercise can eliminate that stressor or those thoughts for a time being, heck, it might eliminate those bad thoughts for the rest of the day.
Family could be another big motivator when it comes to exercise. You want to be around for your children, your husband, your wife, your pets and family. When you have a history of diabetes in the family or individuals being overweight, it's not a bad idea to decrease those risks by moving the body. They always say we cannot choose our family, which is true, but we can choose what we do with our health. So every time you think you cannot do it, even if it's for 5, 10, 15, 20, or 30 minutes, some movement is better than no movement at all. Remember that!

Nicholas Joseph Fury,  más conocido como Nick Fury, es un personaje ficticio interpretado por Samuel L. Jackson en el Universo cinematográfico de Marvel (MCU), basada en el personaje de Marvel Comics del mismo nombre. Fury es presentado como el director de S.H.I.E.L.D. que crea y promulga la Iniciativa Vengadores después de descubrir otras amenazas para la Tierra.

Hasta 2023, Fury ha aparecido en 11 películas del MCU, iniciando con su aparición en la escena post-créditos de Iron Man (2008). También aparece en 2 episodios de la serie de televisión Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (2013–14) y tres episodios de la serie animada What If...? (2021) con diferentes versiones del personajes, con Jackson repitiendo su papel. Regresara como el protagonista de la miniserie Secret Invasion (2023), cuya historia conducirá a la película The Marvels (2023), donde Fury también regresara. Previo a la formación del MCU, Marvel Comics incorporó la imagen de Jackson en el diseño reinventado del personaje para The Ultimates.

Concepto, creación y caracterización
Fury apareció originalmente en los cómics publicados por Marvel Comics. Creado por el escritor/artista Jack Kirby y el escritor Stan Lee, Fury apareció por primera vez en Sgt. Fury and his Howling Commandos No. 1 (mayo de 1963), una serie de combates de la Segunda Guerra Mundial que presentaba a Fury, que masticaba cigarros, como líder de una unidad de élite del ejército de los EE. UU. En 1998, David Hasselhoff interpretó a Fury en la película para televisión de Fox Nick Fury: Agent of SHIELD,  que pretendía ser un piloto de puerta trasera para una posible nueva serie de televisión, que no se materializó.   En 2002, Marvel Comics diseñó su versión "Ultimate" del personaje Nick Fury a semejanza de Samuel L. Jackson.  Sin embargo, Marvel Studios discutió inicialmente un posible papel cinematográfico con George Clooney, quien lo rechazó después de revisar parte del material fuente del cómic y descubrir que Fury era un personaje demasiado violento.  Según el comentario de audio de la película de 2007 Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, el director Tim Story dijo que el guión originalmente contenía a Nick Fury, pero el papel finalmente se convirtió en el del General Hager (interpretado por Andre Braugher), ya que tener a Fury habría obligó a 20th Century Fox a comprar los derechos de ese personaje.

A mediados de la década de 2000, Kevin Feige se dio cuenta de que Marvel aún poseía los derechos de los personajes principales, que incluían a Fury. Feige, un "fanático" autoproclamado, imaginó crear un universo compartido tal como lo habían hecho los creadores Stan Lee y Jack Kirby con sus cómics a principios de la década de 1960.  En 2004, David Maisel fue contratado como director de operaciones de Marvel Studios, ya que tenía un plan para que el estudio autofinanciara películas.  Marvel entró en una estructura de deuda sin recurso con Merrill Lynch, bajo la cual Marvel obtuvo $525millones para hacer un máximo de 10 películas basadas en las propiedades de la compañía durante ocho años, garantizadas por ciertos derechos cinematográficos de un total de 10 personajes, incluido Nick Fury.

Luego, a Jackson se le ofreció el papel, inicialmente firmando un contrato de nueve películas con Marvel para interpretar a Nick Fury en el Universo cinematográfico de Marvel.  En 2019, Jackson confirmó que, si bien Capitana Marvel marcó el final de su contrato de nueve películas con Marvel, continuaría interpretando a Fury en películas futuras.  A partir de entonces, Jackson apareció en un cameo en Avengers: Endgame, y en un papel importante en Spider-Man: Far From Home.

La versión MCU de Nick Fury descartó una serie de detalles de la versión original del cómic. Además de que el personaje original era blanco (un detalle que ya cambió en los cómics antes de que en el MCU se hiciera realidad), el original Nick Fury era un veterano de la Segunda Guerra Mundial que conocía al Capitán América y lideró los Comandos Aulladores, y perdió la vista en su ojo izquierdo durante un ataque con granadas en esa guerra. Tanto en el cómic original como en las versiones de Ultimate Marvel, Fury pudo permanecer activo muchas décadas después de la guerra porque envejeció de manera anormalmente lenta debido a las dosis regulares de Infinity Formula.  Un personaje popular durante varias décadas, en 2011, Fury ocupó el puesto 33 en "Top 100 Comic Book Heroes" de IGN,  y 32 en su lista de "The Top 50 Avengers".  A veces se le ha considerado un antihéroe.

Apariciones
Fury aparece por primera vez en la escena posterior a los créditos de Iron Man (2008), reuniéndose con Tony Stark en su casa de Malibú para hablar sobre la Iniciativa Vengadores.

En Iron Man 2 (2010), Fury envía a Natasha Romanoff para que se haga pasar por asistente y evalúe a Stark para ver si vale la pena reclutarlo para la Iniciativa y ayuda a Stark a lidiar con su enfermedad de paladio y la amenaza de Ivan Vanko. Al final, lo contrata como consultor de la Iniciativa.

En la escena posterior a los créditos de Thor (2011), Fury solicita la ayuda del Dr. Erik Selvig para estudiar el Teseracto.

En Capitán América: El primer vengador (2011), Fury saluda a Steve Rogers y le informa que ha despertado 70 años después.

En The Avengers (2012), Fury está presente con Clint Barton cuando Loki llega a la Tierra para tomar el Teseracto para liderar la invasión Chitauri. Después de esto, él, Phil Coulson y Maria Hill deciden activar la Iniciativa. Fury reúne a Romanoff, Rogers, Stark, Bruce Banner, Thor y Barton para formar los Vengadores. Al señalar que hace más en Los Vengadores que en cualquiera de las películas anteriores, Jackson dijo: "No tienes que esperar hasta el final de la película para verme". Sobre el papel, Jackson dijo: "Siempre es bueno interpretar a alguien [que] es positivo en la sociedad en lugar de alguien que es negativo... Traté de hacerlo tan honesto con la historia como con lo que parecería en la vida real". Jackson comparó al personaje con Ordell Robbie en Jackie Brown, llamándolo "un buen tipo con quien pasar el rato". Simplemente no quieres cruzarte con él".  Jackson ganó $ 4-6 millones por la película.

En 2013 y 2014, Fury apareció en dos episodios de la serie de televisión del MCU, Agentes de SHIELD, "0-8-4" (2013) y "Beginning of the End" (2014). En "0-8-4", Fury aparece al final para regañar a Coulson por los daños causados a un avión de SHIELD durante una pelea, y expresa sus dudas sobre la lealtad de Skye. En junio de 2013, Jackson expresó su interés en aparecer en el programa como Fury,  lo que llevó a su cameo al final de este episodio.  El productor ejecutivo Jeph Loeb dijo: "Obviamente, había una serie de lugares en los que pensamos que Nick Fury tendría un gran impacto en el programa, pero cuanto más hablábamos de eso, [más queríamos] tenerlo muy pronto, para que sería como bautizar el programa, legitimarlo a su manera". Fue un desafío para los showrunners mantener el cameo de Jackson como una sorpresa debido a "esta era de tweets y spoilers".

En Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014),  Hydra intenta acabar con la vida de Fury, que se revela que se ha apoderado de S.H.I.E.L.D. Fury finge su muerte y, una vez que el plan de Hydra para controlar el mundo se frustra con la ayuda de Rogers, Romanoff y Sam Wilson, se dirige a Europa del Este para cazar las células Hydra restantes. Con respecto al cuestionable código de ética mostrado por Fury, Jackson dijo: "Casi todo lo que sale de la boca de Nick Fury es una mentira en algún sentido. Tiene que preguntar, ¿también se está mintiendo a sí mismo? Tiene una muy buena idea de lo que está pasando, pero su paranoia le impide creer algo de eso".  Jackson agregó: "Ves a Nick Fury, el chico de la oficina, él se ocupa del trabajo diario de SHIELD y la política en lugar de esas otras cosas. Es genial tenerlo tratando con el Capitán América en términos de poder hablar con él soldado a soldado y tratar de explicarle cómo el mundo ha cambiado de otra manera mientras él estaba congelado en el tiempo. Algunas de las personas que solían ser nuestros enemigos ahora son nuestros aliados, él tratando de averiguar, 'Bueno, ¿cómo podemos confiar en esos tipos?' o '¿Cómo confiamos en los tipos en los que no confiabas que no confían en ti?' Y explicándole que el blanco y negro de los buenos y los malos ahora se ha convertido en esta zona gris".  McFeely dijo: "Fury representa un obstáculo para Steve de alguna manera. No siempre están de acuerdo en cómo debe usarse SHIELD".  Los escritores le dieron a Fury un papel más destacado en The Winter Soldier, ya que dentro de una trama en la que SHIELD está siendo desmantelado, Fury "se llevaría la peor parte". También tenían la intención de representar a un personaje que hasta ahora había sido representado como un hombre seguro de sí mismo y al mando como vulnerable, para mejorar la sensación de peligro en la conspiración de Hydra.

Fury aparece en el final de la primera temporada de Agents of SHIELD, "Beginning of the End", que trata sobre las secuelas de los eventos de Winter Soldier.

En Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), Fury aparece en la granja de Barton para ayudar y motivar al equipo a formular un plan para evitar que Ultron destruya a la humanidad. Él y otros exagentes de S.H.I.E.L.D. usan un helicóptero que les proporcionó Coulson en la batalla final contra Ultron. Más tarde, ayuda a que las cosas funcionen en el nuevo Complejo de los Vengadores. Jackson describió el papel como un cameo y dijo: "Solo estoy pasando por allí... Porque, es otro de esos 'personas que tienen poderes luchando contra personas que tienen poderes'. Por eso no llegué a Nueva York en Los Vengadores. No hay mucho que pueda hacer excepto disparar un arma".

En la escena posterior a los créditos de Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Fury y Hill discuten la batalla en Wakanda y el estado actual de Stark. Cuando Fury comienza a desintegrarse producto del Blip, usa un buscapersonas modificado para enviar una señal de socorro.

En Capitana Marvel (2019), ambientada en 1995, aparece un Fury más joven y sigue siendo un burócrata de bajo nivel. Fury aparece sin su característico parche en el ojo.  Feige explicó que Danvers es el primer superhéroe con el que se encuentra Fury, lo que lo encamina hacia su papel de trabajar con héroes en películas posteriores del UCM.  Jackson describió a Fury en este punto como un jockey de escritorio, que aún no se ha vuelto cínico con la burocracia y que aprende en la película que hay seres con superpoderes que podrían ayudar a SHIELD. Hacia el final, Fury pierde la vista en su ojo izquierdo después de ser rayado por el Flerken / gato Goose, y se inspira para crear la Iniciativa Vengadores por el ejemplo de Danvers, nombrando el protocolo con su antiguo indicativo.  Jackson agregó que confiar en Danvers juega un papel clave en su desarrollo, ya que se convierten en "compatriotas" a lo largo de la película.  Jackson fue envejecido digitalmente por 25 años, la primera vez que Marvel ha hecho esto para una película completa.

En Avengers: Endgame (2019), Fury vuelve a la vida. Asiste al funeral de Stark y se reúne con Danvers.

En la escena posterior a los créditos de Spider-Man: Lejos de casa (2019),  Fury se va de vacaciones al espacio en una nave espacial Skrull, después de haber reclutado a Talos y Soren para reemplazarlo a él y a Hill y darle las gafas de Stark a Peter Parker.

En agosto de 2020, el actor Jeff Ward reveló que el escritor de la serie Agents of SHIELD, DJ Doyle, había presentado una escena posterior a los créditos para el final de la serie que no se filmó, que presentaba al personaje de Ward, Deke Shaw, sentado en una oficina de SHIELD en la línea de tiempo alternativa, termina la serie atrapado, sirviendo como director de la organización y con un parche en el ojo. Ward agregó que, dado que no estaba claro si Nick Fury todavía estaba vivo en la línea de tiempo alternativa, Deke lo habría usado porque se sentía como "una cosa poderosa y genial", y Deke finalmente sirvió como una adaptación parcial de la versión original del personaje.

Jackson ha interpretado al personaje en dos productos de videojuegos. Jackson repitió su papel de Fury en la adaptación del videojuego de 2010 de Iron Man 2, y nuevamente en el videojuego de 2014 Disney Infinity: Marvel Super Heroes y su secuela de 2015, Disney Infinity 3.0.

Jackson repitió su papel de voz como Fury en la serie animada de Disney+ What If... ?.

Fury regresará en la serie de Disney + Secret Invasion y en la película The Marvels (ambas de 2023).

Biografía del personaje ficticio

Primeros desarrollos

Nicholas Joseph Fury nació en Huntsville, Alabama, el 7 de abril de 1950. Se unió al ejército de los Estados Unidos después de graduarse de la escuela secundaria, y finalmente se convirtió en coronel. Más tarde dejó el ejército para unirse a la Agencia Central de Inteligencia, donde sirvió como espía durante la Guerra Fría. Eventualmente fue reclutado por la agencia de espionaje encubierta S.H.I.E.L.D.

En 1995, Vers, miembro de Starforce, la fuerza estelar Kree, aterriza en Los Ángeles, lo que atrae a él y su compañero agente Phil Coulson para investigar. En un ataque posterior de un grupo de Skrulls, Fury mata a un Skrull que se hace pasar por Coulson. El comandante Skrull, Talos, disfrazado como el jefe de Fury, Keller, le ordena a Fury que trabaje con Vers y la vigile. Vers, que escapa de la captura de Skrull, usa los recuerdos que han extraído para llevar a Fury a la instalación del Proyecto Pegasus en una base de la Fuerza Aérea de EE. UU. Descubren que Vers era Carol Danvers, una piloto que se presume murió en 1989 mientras probaba un motor a reacción experimental diseñado por la Dra. Wendy Lawson, a quien Vers reconoce como la mujer de sus pesadillas recurrentes. Después de que Fury informa a S.H.I.E.L.D. de su ubicación, llega un equipo liderado por Talos disfrazado de Keller. Fury descubre la artimaña de Talos y ayuda a Vers a escapar en un quadjet con Goose, el gato polizón de Lawson. Vuelan a Louisiana para encontrarse con la ex piloto Maria Rambeau, la última persona que vio a Vers y Lawson con vida. Más tarde, Danvers, Talos, Fury y Rambeau ubican el laboratorio oculto de Lawson en órbita alrededor de la Tierra, donde Lawson escondió a varios Skrull, incluida la familia de Talos, y el Teseracto, la fuente de energía del motor de Lawson. Danvers es capturada por la Starforce, y en la batalla posterior, Fury recupera a Goose, quien se revela como un alienígena Flerken. Goose se traga el Teseracto y rasguña la cara de Fury, cegándole el ojo izquierdo. Danvers parte para ayudar a los Skrull a encontrar un nuevo mundo natal, dejando a Fury un buscapersonas modificado para contactarla en caso de emergencia. Mientras tanto, Fury redacta una iniciativa para localizar héroes como Danvers, nombrándola en honor a su distintivo de llamada de la Fuerza Aérea, "Avenger".

Más tarde, Fury se convirtió en subjefe de la estación de SHIELD en Bogotá, donde "demostró su temple de liderazgo" al diseñar el rescate de los rehenes capturados por los rebeldes colombianos en la embajada del país, incluida la hija del entonces director de SHIELD, Alexander Pierce, lo que llevó a Pierce a hacerlo a él director de SHIELD, mientras que Pierce se unió al Consejo de Seguridad Mundial.

Reuniendo a los Vengadores

En 2010, Fury, después de ver su revelación como Iron Man, visita a Tony Stark en su casa de Malibú y lo recluta para la "Iniciativa Vengadores".

Seis meses después, en 2011, Fury se acerca a un errático Stark en Randy's Donuts, revelando que la nueva asistente recientemente contratada por él, "Natalie Rushman", es la agente de S.H.I.E.L.D. Natasha Romanoff y que su padre, Howard, era un fundador de S.H.I.E.L.D. a quien Fury conocía personalmente. Fury explica que el padre de Ivan Vanko, Anton, y Howard inventaron juntos el reactor arc, pero cuando Anton trató de venderlo, Howard lo deportó. Fury le da a Stark parte del material antiguo de su padre, lo que le permite a Stark sintetizar un nuevo elemento para su reactor arc que termina con su dependencia del paladio. Más tarde, Fury le informa a Stark que debido a su personalidad difícil, SHIELD tiene la intención de usarlo solo como consultor.

Poco antes de la Batalla de Nueva York en 2012, Fury recluta al Dr. Erik Selvig para estudiar el Teseracto. En la ciudad de Nueva York, supervisa la reintroducción de Steve Rogers en la sociedad después de estar congelado por casi 70 años. Fury está presente con su colega y amiga Maria Hill en las instalaciones de SHIELD cuando Loki, un príncipe de Asgard llega para robar el Teseracto y tomar el control del agente Clint Barton y Selvig. Fury llama a Romanoff, Stark, Rogers y Bruce Banner para luchar contra Loki. Más tarde, Fury usa la muerte de Coulson para motivar a los Vengadores, que ahora incluye a Thor, el hermano de Loki, a trabajar en equipo, lo que los lleva a enfrentarse a Loki y al ejército invasor Chitauri en la ciudad de Nueva York. Cuando el Consejo Mundial de Seguridad autoriza el bombardeo nuclear de la ciudad para derrotar la invasión, Fury usa un lanzacohetes para derribar uno de los dos jets que se lanzan para esa misión, pero es demasiado tarde para detener el segundo, que dispara un misil que es interceptado por Stark.

Después de la derrota de Loki, Fury autoriza el uso de tecnología alienígena para resucitar a Coulson de la muerte y, en respuesta a la invasión, convence al Consejo de que el mundo necesita "un aumento cuántico en el análisis de amenazas".

Luchando contra Hydra y Ultrón

En 2014, Fury entrena a Rogers para que sea un agente de SHIELD y le presenta el Projecto Insight: tres Helicarriers de SHIELD armados con cañones guiados por satélite espía, diseñados para eliminar amenazas de manera preventiva. Los Helicarriers son capaces de realizar vuelos suborbitales continuos, debido a los nuevos motores Repulsor propuestos por Stark, sus armas pueden matar 1,000 objetivos por minuto y los satélites, lanzados desde el Lemurian Star, una nave de SHIELD, pueden leer el ADN de un objetivo en cualquier parte del mundo. Sin embargo, cuando el proyecto está a unas semanas de completarse, Fury comienza a sospechar de Insight. Contrata a un mercenario argelino, Georges Batroc, para secuestrar el Star como tapadera y permitir que Romanoff suba al barco con Rogers para recuperar datos sobre Insight. Aunque Romanoff tiene éxito, Fury no puede descifrar los datos, lo que aumenta sus sospechas y lo obliga a convencer a Pierce de que retrase el proyecto. Poco después, Hydra intenta acabar con la vida de Fury, que se revela que se ha apoderado de SHIELD. Tras salir de milagro, llega a la casa de Rogers y le informa sobre la situación. Aparentemente, Fury es asesinado por su asesino más peligroso, el Soldado de Invierno, pero se revela que fingió su muerte usando tetrodotoxina B, una droga. diseñado por Banner que era capaz de ralentizar el corazón a 1 latido por minuto. Rogers, Sam Wilson y Romanoff son llevados por Hill para verlo con vida y en un búnker escondido. Después de que se revela que Pierce está trabajando para Hydra, Fury reaparece para anular el control de Hydra de los sistemas informáticos de SHIELD, lo que obliga a Pierce a desbloquear la base de datos de SHIELD para que Romanoff pueda filtrar información clasificada, exponiendo a Hydra al público. Fury revela que aunque Pierce había eliminado el escaneo de retina de Fury del sistema, Fury tenía un escaneo de respaldo de su otro ojo destruido. Luego les dice a Rogers, Wilson y Romanoff que se esconderá en Europa para cazar más células de Hydra.

Una vez que se frustra el plan de Hydra para controlar el mundo, Fury aparece para ayudar a los agentes de SHIELD después de esos eventos, rescatando a los agentes Leo Fitz y Jemma Simmons de ahogarse en el océano y proporcionando al agente Coulson el arma Destructor para eliminar a los soldados enemigos, antes se enfrentan a John Garrett y Deathlok. Posteriormente, Coulson vaporiza a Garrett y critica a Fury por usar GH325 para revivirlo. Fury responde que valora a Coulson tanto como a cualquier Vengador, porque representa el corazón y el centro moral de SHIELD, y declara a Coulson como el nuevo director de SHIELD, le asigna la tarea de reconstruir la organización desde cero y lo equipa con una 'caja de herramientas' que contiene datos útiles.

En 2015, Fury llega a la casa de Barton para ayudar y motivar a Stark, Rogers, Romanoff, Banner y Barton a formular un plan para detener a Ultrón. Él, Hill y otros exagentes de SHIELD y James Rhodes usan el helicarrier original para ayudar a los Vengadores en Sokovia durante la batalla final contra Ultrón. Posteriormente, supervisa la transición de los Vengadores al nuevo Complejo del equipo.

Posteriormente, Coulson le revela a González y su junta que él y Fury habían descubierto que el helicóptero original sobrevivió al ataque de HYDRA y lo repararon como un dispositivo de seguridad en caso de emergencia.

Consecuencias de la guerra del infinito

En 2018, Fury y Hill viajan a Atlanta discutiendo el paradero de los Vengadores cuando Hill se desintegra repentinamente debido al Blip, lo que lleva a Fury a usar su localizador para convocar a Danvers, antes de que él también se desintegre.

En 2023, Fury vuelve a la vida, asiste al funeral de Stark y se reúne con Danvers. Algún tiempo después, designa a Talos y Soren para que se hagan pasar por él y Hill mientras se va de vacaciones al espacio en una nave Skrull.

En 2024, Talos le informa a Fury a través de una llamada telefónica que Peter Parker recibió las gafas de Tony Stark. Luego, Talos le pidió a Fury que regresara a la Tierra, ya que la gente comenzaba a preguntar qué pasó con los Vengadores. Todavía en el espacio, Fury desconecta la llamada.

Versiones alternativas

Varias versiones alternativas de Nick Fury aparecen en la serie animada What If...?, con Jackson retomando su papel.

Conociendo a Capitana Carter

En un 2012 alternativo, Fury y Barton se encuentran con la capitana Carter después de que ella llega a través de un portal abierto por el Teseracto.

Muerte de los Vengadores
En un 2010 alternativo, Fury es testigo de la muerte de Stark, Barton, Thor y Romanoff durante su campaña de reclutamiento para la Iniciativa Vengadores. Eventualmente deduce que sus asesinatos fueron instigados por Hank Pym y se alía temporalmente con Loki para confrontarlo en San Francisco. Después de que Pym es derrotado, Loki subyuga rápidamente el planeta y se convierte en su gobernante, lo que lleva a Fury a convocar a Danvers y despertar a Rogers.

Algún tiempo después, Fury lidera un movimiento de resistencia contra Loki y su ejército con un nuevo equipo de Vengadores compuesto por Rogers y Danvers. Mientras luchan en el Helicarrier, Fury observa cómo aparece una Romanoff de otro universo y somete a Loki con su Cetro. A pesar de reconocer que ella no es la Romanoff que él conoce, Fury la elogia por compartir el mismo espíritu y la recluta para los Vengadores.

Deteniendo la fiesta de Thor
En una línea de tiempo alternativa, Fury va a Las Vegas para confrontar a Thor con respecto a su fiesta intergaláctica fuera de control, pero Korg lo deja inconsciente accidentalmente durante una de sus balas de cañón y cae en coma, lo que obliga a Maria Hill a asumir el cargo de directora interina de S.H.I.E.L.D.

Recepción

Respuesta crítica
En una crítica generalmente positiva de Los Vengadores, la crítica de Associated Press Christy Lemire escribió que "[e]l sensato Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), el jefe de SHIELD, al que se le había confiado la seguridad de [el Teseracto] — entra en acción para volver a adquirirlo reuniendo un equipo de ensueño de superhéroes y otros tipos malos con habilidades especializadas".  Reseñando The Winter Soldier, Todd McCarthy de The Hollywood Reporter dijo que "desde un punto de vista dramático, el mayor interés recae en Jackson y Redford, dos grandes veteranos cuya presencia da peso a los procedimientos fantásticos y cuyos personajes toman algunos giros y vueltas interesantes. antes de que todo termine".  Chris E. Hayne de GameSpot clasificó a Fury en el puesto 19 en su lista de "38 superhéroes del Universo Cinematográfico de Marvel" y escribió: "No hay Vengadores sin Nick Fury. El exdirector de SHIELD inició la iniciativa Avenger y en este momento sabemos que está en el espacio en alguna parte, esperando el cambio para regresar a la Tierra".

Se notó que Fury "faltaba en gran medida en la Fase Tres del Universo Cinematográfico de Marvel", y tanto Jackson como los fanáticos de la franquicia estaban "desanimados porque Fury se quedó fuera de Civil War y Black Panther", aunque más tarde tuvo un papel importante en Capitana Marvel.  Escribiendo para Variety, Owen Gleiberman dijo de la última película que el "Samuel L. Jackson envejecido digitalmente" en Capitana Marvel "recibió un favor sorprendente por el engaño visual". Parece diferente de lo habitual, más ligero y alegre".

Al propio Jackson le gusta interpretar al personaje. Después de recibir un Oscar honorífico en 2021, comentó en una entrevista con Los Angeles Times que prefiere el papel a los que describió como "películas que persiguen estatuas".

Why The Chris Evans and Jenny Slate Romance Didn't Pan Out
9:08 AM EDT 4/5/2017 by Audrey Liza M. Nolasco, Celebeat Reporter
Chris Evans and Jenny Slate didn't fall for each other while filming "Gifted". She really didn't think she was his type, considering he's dated the likes of Jessica Biel and Minka Kelly. In the end, it confused her to be with one of the most objectified people in the planet.
When they got to know each other better, Slate discovered Chris Evans was actually a softie. In an interview with Vulture, she opened up what it's like to be with the "Captain America" star. They're both from Massachusetts, and describes him as one of the kindest people in the world. So much so that sometimes merely looking at him would break her heart. Evans is vulnerable, straightforward, and likes primary colors. He's got big, strong, beautiful emotions that he's really sure of. He's wonderful to be around.
When she found out Chris Evans had feelings for her, she somehow thought it was a prank. She could understand why she thought she was beautiful, but if a person led a certain lifestyle and she's a different type of person, she didn't want to become an experiment. Evans never made Slate feel that way but she didn't like how some people seemed to feel like they owned him. She especially didn't like it when girls came up to her at CVS, gushing about how 'hot' her boyfriend is.
As much as they loved being together, she said she and Chris Evans were really different. She has more freedom than him because she's not Captain America. She kept waiting for things to feel normal, but they never did. That was something she really needed, be normal and be alone. Thus, the break up.
On the other hand, Chris Evans has nothing but love and kind words for his ex Jenny Slate. In an interview with USA TODAY, he said that you can't help but have respect for Evans. And that one can't find something bad to say about her even if you tried. He will always be grateful for having her and she will be in his life always. Thus proving Captain America is indeed a gentleman.

Richard Montgomery Squeaks Past Northwest in OT to Remain Unbeaten
The Richard Montgomery Rockets came into the Northwest gym Monday night with an unbeaten record while averaging 70 points per game in wins over the top five teams in Montgomery County. However, the Jags who came into the game just 3-3 and averaging just 59 points per game, gave RM all they could handle in an overtime thriller in Germantown.
Alas, the Rockets were able to hold off Northwest and win 75-73.
The Jags came out on fire scoring 22 points in the first quarter while holding the Rockets to just five points. The Jags were led early by junior Marcus Stubbs who had 10 of his 19 points in the first stanza to give Northwest a 17 point lead at the first break.
The Rockets steadied the ship in the second quarter holding the Jags to just 11 while scoring 17 points to cut the Northwest lead to 11 at the half. The Rockets were led by sophomore Ryan Cornish who had 24 points on five field goals, two three-pointers, and he shot eight for eight from the foul line.
"We were playing good defense to start," said Northwest Head Coach James DeBuchananne. "We gave up few points at the end of the second half which hurt us and let them get back into the game. On our offensive end, we were getting buckets and drawing fouls in the first half, but in the second half we didn't get as many foul calls, but we were able to hit a few threes to keep us in it."
The Jags hit threes — 13 three-pointers for 39 of the 73 points. The Jags connected on four three-point shots in the second half and four in the five-minute overtime. Senior Shahab Mastori hit six threes, two in overtime. He finished with 19.
Northwest had four players shooting in double-digits. Both Mastori and Stubbs had 19 points, while seniors Tyrone Mayer added 13 points and Anthony Fuentes had 10 points.
Northwest made 20 of 29 from the foul line, shooting 69 percent in the game.
The Rockets came out of half and continued to turn things around scoring 26 points, including four long-balls. The scoring attack was led by senior Miles Gally who finished the game with 21 points on four field goals, four three-balls, and shot one of two from the line.
Despite scoring 26 in the third quarter, RM still trailed Northwest by three-points, 50-47, at the end of the quarter. The Jags scored 17 in third.
The Rockets began to turn things around in the fourth quarter. RM scored 14 points while holding Northwest to 11 points in the fourth. The Rockets converted eight of 10 free throws in the fourth to help force the tie game.
With 5:43 remaining Richard Montgomery took the lead 55-54 for the first time in the game. The Rockets would go on a mini-scoring run and extend the lead to 61-56 with 2:48 remaining, however, the Jags were not done.
After a missed three-pointer from Fuentes, Tyrone Mayer was able to collect the rebound and lay in a shot to cut the lead to 61-58. The Jags would get a stop at the other end. The next trip up the court would end with Mastori draining his fourth three-pointer of the game from right in front of the Jags' bench to tie the game at 61.
The Jags would do all their damage from beyond the arc in the extra period, draining four three-pointers — two from Mastori and one each from Fuentes and Mayer —to score 12 points, but Richard Montgomery 14 points from four players in overtime including four points from Cornish to take the 75-73 victory.
"We gave an all-out effort," said DeBuchananne. "That [Richard Montgomery] is a good team. I was proud of the way our guys played. We maybe could have done a couple of things better throughout the game and in late game situations. It was a well-played game by both teams, I would have liked to come out on top, but I can't fault our guys' effort."
The Rockets remain unbeaten after escaping Germantown with the overtime win and will travel to face 4-5 Clarksburg on Wednesday and then 3-3 Wootton on Friday night. The Jaguars fall to 3-4 and will the opposite. Northwest will travel to play Wootton on Wednesday before hosting Clarksburg on Friday night.
Top: Northwest senior Shahab Mastori (1) takes a three-pointer to tie the game in the fourth quarter. He would finish with 19 points, making six from beyond the arc.
Next: Northwest senior Tyrone Mayer Jr. (32) puts back a rebound over the outstretched hand of RM defender Miles Gally (33) to cut the late Rocket lead to 58-61 in the fourth quarter.
Next: Mastori (1) hits his second three-pointer of the overtime period to cut the RM lead to two points with just seven seconds remaining.

Are you passionate about the osteopathic care of infants and children? Do you want to support the osteopathic care of those who may not be able to access osteopathy? Are you keen to work with other services such as Health Visiting and Midwifery?
We are looking for a Specialist Clinic Tutor to join us on a maternity cover basis to work within our children's clinics at the UCO clnic and at the 1st Place centre. Nicola Howard, the Director of 1st Place, tells a little bit about the community the 1st Place clinic serves.
"The UCO's community clinic has been running in partnership with 1st Place and the SureStart programme before it for over 14 years. This service has been continuous and is well established within the reach area of the centre and beyond, with strong links with all of our partners especially those in statutory services such as Health Visiting and Midwifery.
While Southwark, and in particular what was the Aylesbury estate, is in the midst of significant regeneration, we are still experiencing very high levels of need with the families we work with. The Aylesbury estate houses over 25% of those living in temporary accommodation in the borough, and the majority of these families have children under the age of 5. As the temporary accommodation is made up of housing vacated by permanent tenants in anticipation of rebuilding, many of these homes are of a low standard, which impacts on the health and wellbeing of the families living there.
Services such as those provided by UCO contribute positively to the health of these families, and are highly regarded by the wider Southwark Children's Centre partnership, as well as our Board of Trustees, who are committed to maintaining our work together."
For more information about 1st Place and the work that they do visit their website.
The UCO is very keen to continue and develop the excellent work carried out in the 1st Place clinic, and to support staff in their own development as osteopaths and as educators. If you would be interested in applying for the role you can find more information on our Vacancies page, or direct any questions to Neil Mellerick, Clinic Team Leader.


I haven't added any new content since April of this year. I have not given up on the blog or on adding new content. It just is not possible at this time. I have spend weeks deciding how to write this post, this difficult post.
Sometime late last year when my depression began a downward spiral, I began to notice that my writing process was not as smooth as before. More often I found myself stalling for long periods. By February of this year, it has screeched to a halt. Writing at this point is similar to trying to write in a language I do not speak. Every word searched for like using an English to whatever language dictionary. I do not know when my writing will return to normal. My physician has two theories. Hopefully in the near future an answer will be found.
If I owe you a review (and I owe 4 audio and 6 e book reviews), I apologize. In most cases, I have completed reading or listening to your item. I just cannot write the review. I will continue trying until they are all complete. Thank you for your patience and understanding.


Riddleblog - The Latest Post - Academy Cancelled on Account of Rain!
Academy Cancelled on Account of Rain!
We are cancelling this week's Academy Lecture (Friday evening) due to rain--up to four inches is expected. There will likely be street and local flooding--especially near the church.
The picture is of my front yard from the last 3 inch rain a couple of weeks ago. We have had enough rain so far this season that the ground is throughly saturated and the rain water pools -- turning my front yard into a four-six inch deep lake.
Stay safe and dry! Thankfully, our drought is over.
Thanks for cancelling Kim! It'll give me a chance to catch up on the reading assignment!

Brad Pitt is 'Chad Schmidt'
Brad Pitt is Chad Schmidt
— February 15th, 2005
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Brad Pitt is attached to star in Chad Schmidt, a new Steve Conrad script that has been sold to Columbia Pictures for more than $1 million.
Schmidt centers on a talented young actor who moves to Los Angeles in the 1980s to pursue his dream of movie stardom. The twist is that he bears a peculiarly strong resemblance to another up-and-coming actor named Brad Pitt. As the real Pitt achieves a dazzling level of fame, the fictional Schmidt, for all of his talent, becomes a comic uncastable joke. Ultimately, Schmidt must struggle to overcome the blow of abandoning his dreams and must make peace with the hard realities of life.

Q: angular 6 woocommerce REST authentication I am trying to connect my woocommerce rest api with angular 6.
export class RestService {
  _urlwc = 'http://127.0.0.1/wp-json/wc/v2/products'; //woocommerce
  _urlwp = 'http://127.0.0.1/wp-json/wp/v2/posts';    //wordpress

  constructor(private http: HttpClient) { }

  getPosts() {
    return this.http.get(this._urlwp);
  }
  getProducts() {

    let headers = new HttpHeaders();
    headers = headers.append("Authorization", "Basic " + btoa("ck_9c9293adb7d3fb19f60a1dccd0cb5d4a251e9e03:cs_77a221d4655d5fb8fc2a5c85b7259c2364d59a8c"));
    headers = headers.append("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
    return this.http.get(this._urlwc, { headers: headers });

  }
}

only Wordpress get method works fine even without authorization, but Woocommerce gives me not authorized 401 code!! [i have created consumer key and secret]
then  i tried using Postman with different authentications like

*

*No Auth

*Basic Auth

*OAuth 2.0

the OAuth 1.0 works fine with postman.
How can i implement authentication angular 6 with woocommerce api??
or how can i user OAuth 1.0 in angular 6 like postman do??Postman Screenshoot

A: Create a service using:
ng g s services/woocommerce

This will create files woocommerce.service.spec.ts and woocommerce.service.ts under the directory src/app/services/woocommerce
In the woocommerce.service.ts, add the following code (note: you need to install crypto-js : https://github.com/brix/crypto-js):
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import hmacSHA1 from 'crypto-js/hmac-sha1';
import Base64 from 'crypto-js/enc-base64';

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root'
})
export class WoocommerceService {
  nonce: string = ''
  currentTimestamp: number = 0
  customer_key: string = 'ck_2e777dd6fdca2df7b19f26dcf58e2988c5ed1f6d';
  customer_secret: string = 'cs_0176cb5343903fbaebdd584c3c947ff034ecab90';
  constructor() { }

  authenticateApi(method,url,params) {
    var possible = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789";
    this.nonce ='';
    for(var i = 0; i < 6; i++) {
        this.nonce += possible.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * possible.length));
    }
    this.currentTimestamp = Math.floor(new Date().getTime() / 1000);

    let authParam:object ={
        oauth_consumer_key : this.customer_key,
        oauth_nonce : this.nonce,
        oauth_signature_method : 'HMAC-SHA1',
        oauth_timestamp : this.currentTimestamp,
        oauth_version : '1.0',
    }
    let parameters = Object.assign({}, authParam, params);
    let signatureStr:string = '';
    Object.keys(parameters).sort().forEach(function(key) {
        if(signatureStr == '')
            signatureStr += key+'='+parameters[key];
        else
            signatureStr += '&'+key+'='+parameters[key];
    });
    let paramStr:string = '';
    Object.keys(params).sort().forEach(function(key) {

        paramStr += '&'+key+'='+parameters[key];
    });
    return url+'?oauth_consumer_key='+this.customer_key+'&oauth_nonce='+this.nonce+'&oauth_signature_method=HMAC-SHA1&oauth_timestamp='+this.currentTimestamp+'&oauth_version=1.0&oauth_signature='+Base64.stringify(hmacSHA1(method+'&'+encodeURIComponent(url)+'&'+encodeURIComponent(signatureStr),this.customer_secret+'&'))+paramStr;

  }
}

The authenticateApi function builds and returns the url to be used for the woocommerce api call. The code is self explanatory, and I will not get into explaining it, but just in case refer to this link on how the url is built. It's actually more about building the auth-signature parameter.
Here is how we will use this service in any component say for example a product component we import this service:
import { WordpressService } from '../services/wordpress/wordpress.service';
Also import Router and ActivatedRoute as follows:
import { Router, ActivatedRoute } from '@angular/router';

We want this to get the slug part of the url. To do that, pass parameters in the constructor as follows:
constructor(private woocommerce: WoocommerceService, private http: HttpClient, private router: Router, private route: ActivatedRoute) {
    this.route.params.subscribe( params => this.productSlug = params.slug )
  }

Here we are going to use the woocommerce service . We created httpclient for making http request to the woocommerce api, and activated route to get product slug. The params.slug refers to the variable used in angular routing routes i.e.
{
    path: 'product/:slug',
    component: ProductComponent
},

You also need to create productSlug variable in the component to hold the slug:
productSlug: string;

On ng init, call the service:
ngOnInit() {
    this.params = {slug:this.productSlug}
    let producturl:string = this.woocommerce.authenticateApi('GET','http://localhost/shop/wp-json/wc/v2/products',this.params);
        this.http.get(producturl).subscribe((wc_data:any) => {
        this.product = wc_data[0];
        this.params = {}
        let productvariationurl:string = this.woocommerce.authenticateApi('GET','http://localhost/shop/wp-json/wc/v2/products/'+this.product.id+'/variations',this.params);
        this.http.get(productvariationurl).subscribe((wc_pv_data:any) => {
            this.productVariations = wc_pv_data;
        });
        this.params = {include:this.product.related_ids}
        let productrelatedurl:string = this.woocommerce.authenticateApi('GET','http://localhost/shop/wp-json/wc/v2/products',this.params);
        this.http.get(productrelatedurl).subscribe((wc_r_data:any) => {
            this.productRelated = wc_r_data;
        });
    });
 }

As you see, here I am getting all product with a particular slug. Then getting all variations of that product, and getting related products
here is the full code of product component:
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';
import { WoocommerceService } from '../services/woocommerce/woocommerce.service';
import { Router, ActivatedRoute } from '@angular/router';
@Component({
  selector: 'app-product',
  templateUrl: './product.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./product.component.scss']
})
export class ProductComponent implements OnInit {

  product: any;
  productVariations: any;
  selectedvariation: number;
  selectedquantity: number;
  productRelated: any;
  productSlug: number;
  variationSelected: string;
  params: object = {}
  constructor( private woocommerce: WoocommerceService, private http: HttpClient, private router: Router, private route: ActivatedRoute) {
    this.route.params.subscribe( params => this.productSlug = params.slug )
  }

  ngOnInit() {
    this.params = {slug:this.productSlug}
    let producturl:string = this.woocommerce.authenticateApi('GET','http://localhost/shop/wp-json/wc/v2/products',this.params);
        this.http.get(producturl).subscribe((wc_data:any) => {
        this.product = wc_data[0];
        this.params = {}
        let productvariationurl:string = this.woocommerce.authenticateApi('GET','http://localhost/shop/wp-json/wc/v2/products/'+this.product.id+'/variations',this.params);
        this.http.get(productvariationurl).subscribe((wc_pv_data:any) => {
            this.productVariations = wc_pv_data;
        });
        this.params = {include:this.product.related_ids}
        let productrelatedurl:string = this.woocommerce.authenticateApi('GET','http://localhost/shop/wp-json/wc/v2/products',this.params);
        this.http.get(productrelatedurl).subscribe((wc_r_data:any) => {
            this.productRelated = wc_r_data;
        });
    });
  }
}

You could for example, engage in leaf matching or show her how to match objects with the same color… or you can teach them about textures or count. These are just examples as there are many other activities that you'll be able to engage your baby with.
Daily Vroom has different features, but the goal is the same, to stimulate their brain while you go about your daily tasks. Whether you're changing diapers, going to the doctor, playing or doing chores, the activities keep your child engaged while learning at the same time.
Daily Vroom is a fun way to bond with your child, and it's also based on science. All the activities have a Brainy Background which explains how it helps your child's brain development. The app is designed for children of different ages, and you can customize the features by going to the Settings. And the more you use Daily Vroom, the more features you will be able to unlock.

Your goal in Moscow is to learn more about how the Halbech missiles made their way from Moscow to Saudi Arabia. You'll start out with three missions: Assault Lazo's Yacht and Retrieve Data (to learn more about the Russian mafia), Contact Grigori the Informant (to learn who Halbech might have been dealing with in Moscow), and Investigate Weapon Shipments (to check out Leningradski Station, where the missiles were stored).
During these missions you'll learn about Sergei Surkov, and you'll meet with him during the mission Intercept Surkov at US Embassy (and perhaps Contact Surkov at Moscow Office). Surkov will inform you that a mobster named Konstantin Brayko is the man you're looking for, but you won't figure out what's really going on until you've completed the missions Assault Brayko's Mansion and Prevent Surkov's Escape. Dealing with Brayko and Surkov will end the Moscow portion of the campaign.
You're not required to complete all of the missions in Moscow to learn about Brayko and Surkov, but it's a good idea. That way you'll meet and have a chance to interact with a pair of potential allies in SIE (of the VCI) and Albatross (of G22). The order that you complete the missions isn't really important, except that you should meet with Grigori before doing anything else. That way you'll be able to make an additional $30,000 when you complete the mission Investigate Weapon Shipments.

There are many ways shoes can be stored to keep them organised and some can even double up as the focal point of a room.
Fitted wardrobes are a great way of organising, but it doesn't have to stop at just your clothes. Design a wardrobe which includes a storage solution for your shoes too. Racks and shelving work very well inside fitted wardrobes, dedicate one side of your wardrobe to your clothes and the other to your footwear for ultimate organisation. Take a look at our 'Interactive Wardrobe Builder' to get started on your wardrobe plan and get a quote today.
A shoe carousel is guaranteed to put your shoes in a spin! A revolving shoe unit could be the feature of your room or fit neatly away inside your fitted wardrobe.
Sometimes shoes are so beautiful that we don't want to hide them away, so why not display those special ones on a bookcase for the world to see!? A bookcase is an ideal display solution, whilst still keeping them practically accessible when getting ready.
The sky's the limit when it comes to displaying your shoes on a ladder, the amount of shoes you can display depends on the length of your ladder. Shoe heels will hook over the rungs of the ladder so make sure you opt for one with lots. This is a great option if you want to save money and can be made to look as expensive as you like with a lick of paint- try white chalk paint and finish in a wax for a vintage edge.


Couples / marriage counselling is a form of psychotherapy in which couples focus on their relationship. During couples counselling partners will rebuild or strengthen their relationship and resolve any conflicts. Through counselling, couples will be able to make rational decisions with regards to rebuilding their relationship, or realizing that there is nothing more that they can do to fix their relationship and that it is time for them to go their own ways.
As the focus of couples counselling is the relationship, it is usually conducted with both partners. However, in some cases it is necessary for each partner to have individual sessions, as well as with group sessions. Couples / Marriage counselling is usually short term, however, the specific treatment plan will vary from one couple to the next.
Some couples attend couples counselling to simply strengthen their union and better their communication, while others attend to try to selvage a relationship in turmoil. Some of the issues that couples may seek help with at therapy are financial troubles, sexual difficulties, communication issues, differences about child rearing, and infidelity.
While there are a number of benefits to couples counselling, the following is a brief discussion of some of the main objectives of couples counselling.
Improve communication. Therapy will help couples learn how to effectively communicate with each other in a supportive manner, by teaching partners what kind of communication is constructive and what kind will cause an argument.
Reduce emotional avoidance. Couples who do not express their private feelings with each other often grow apart due to emotional distance. Therapy will help couples to express themselves to each other effectively, so that they can rebuild their emotional bond.
Learn to promote the strengths of the relationship. Because much of couples therapy focuses on the negative aspects of a relationship in turmoil, there is a specific focus on promoting the strengths of the relationship to help the couple to develop enjoyment from the relationship.
Modify dysfunctional behavior. It is the therapist's role to make sure that neither partner in the relationship is experiencing physical, emotional or mental harm from the other. If this is the case they may recommend that partners take some time to be apart from each other. The purpose of this is to make sure that couples not only improve their interactions, but also their behavior with each other.
Change the perceptions of the relationship. A Counselor will help couples to view the relationship in a more objective manner so that they can understand why the relationship can change depending on the context for example. By changing the way the couple understands their relationship, they will be able to look at themselves and their interactions in a more nuanced way.
The counselling space is one free of judgement where couples can explore their relationship openly and honestly, with the guidance of their therapist. However, it is important to remember that a therapist is there to enable change and resolution, especially for couples in turmoil, so that through open communication they can reach their own conclusion about their relationship with the support of a professional therapist.

"We've optimized the site for mobile devices to make all of our content readable on any screen size," says the Poetry Foundation commenting on the two-year project that brings users "an engaging, immersive online reading experience while making the range of poems, biographies, podcasts, articles, and other content from our archive more discoverable." And very handsome it all is, too.
Especially for today, there's a section devoted to "July 4th Poems" and everyone from Whitman to Ginsberg to Angelou has their Independence Day say. Another indispensably American voice is that of Delmore Schwartz, who once said, "Time is the school in which we learn / Time is the fire in which we burn." This poem is timeless.
Hence I must descry and describe the kingdom of emotion.
This is the song of the natural city self in the 20th century.
Which sees and says: more: more and more: always more.


Like the senior editors of national newspapers, hedge fund managers and classy bond villains, several French grapes have found their second home in Tuscany. The hilly landscape, at relatively high altitudes and the influence of Mediterranean breezes tempering the climate makes the region ideal for producing reds with a similar structure, ripeness levels, palatable alcohol and aging potential of Bordeaux. Not to mention the undulating countryside makes for a fantastic evil fortress when dugout of the side of a hill.
Querciabella are one of the finest Tuscan producers to work with international grape varieties. Turpino is an adventurous blend of Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Merlot. Half of the grapes come from the estate's Maremma holding, the other from Greve-in-Chianti. The palate is multi-layered and richly flavoured with plenty of ripe forest fruit characters balanced by a refined structure and a lovely energetic freshness which runs through to the finish. Hints of spice and a mineral edge add complexity and gives excellent definition.
Founded in 1974, Querciabella enjoys the acclaim of the world's most discriminating critics and consumers for its exquisite range of biodynamic wines. In its uncompromising pursuit of quality, sustainability and authenticity, Querciabella has continually honed its approach to biodynamic viticulture for over a decade. With vineyards located throughout Tuscany's Chianti Classico and Maremma areas. Thanks to Sebastiano Cossia Castiglioni's vision and leadership, Querciabella exemplifies the preservation of tradition through forward-thinking, albeit completely natural, winemaking. As with all Querciabella wines, elegance and finesse trump muscle in Turpino – whose lifted aromas of violets and wild berries, and youthful ruby color, lead the way to delicate purity of fruit, roundness and depth, accompanied by fine and silky tannins. The name Turpino – like Palafreno and Mongrana which precede this wine in the Querciabella range – pays homage to Orlando Furioso, a 16th century Italian epic poem by Ludovico Ariosto.

"Oh, we do love to be beside the seaside!"
This summer Marcon played a key role in the restoration and reopening of the iconic Hastings Pier. The famous pier underwent two years of renovation works at a cost of £14.2million.
Closed for safety reasons in 2008 and virtually destroyed by fire in October 2010, a local action group raised the funds to rebuild the 140 year-old structure, supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund.
The Pier's main attractions are the bar and restaurant in the newly renovated Pavilion building and "The Deck", a newly built two storey visitor centre with a roof terrace café, bistro restaurant, viewing platform and heritage rooms. The Memories Room allows visitors to explore the Pier's fascinating history by using a range of interactive multi-touch tables to discover pictures, postcards, photographs, posters and gig tickets from the past. The popular Birch Room is an educational hub hosting a wide range of workshops for children, families and the wider community, as well as exploring Hastings Pier's history with an audio visual exhibition.
Working closely with the Hastings Pier Charity and interpretive designers DESIGNMAP, Marcon was responsible for the manufacture and installation of all specialist joinery, coordination of audio visual hardware, perimeter graphics and wayfinding signage, installation of interpretive rails along the full length of the pier and the installation of a feature periscope that allows visitors to view under the pier. In addition, Marcon manufactured the mobile interactive units, research kiosks and interactive audio visual multi-touch tables within the Memories Room.
Alan Stewart, Business Development Manager at Marcon talks about the company's involvement in the scheme; "This project was a first for the Marcon Heritage team. It's not every day that you get to work on an iconic landmark such as the 140 year old Hastings Pier. It was a joy to work so closely with Hastings Pier Charity and DESIGNMAP, to share their enthusiasm for the restoration of the pier and to help create an attraction that will be enjoyed by so many people for years to come.
Daniel Sutton, Managing Director at DESIGNMAP adds, "There were two key challenges for the design of the interpretation. For the exterior installations we needed to use materials and construction methods capable of withstanding the harsh marine environment. Whilst the interior exhibits had to be updatable and mobile, enabling the exhibition spaces to be reconfigured easily for events. Marcon were proactive throughout the design development process which greatly benefited the final installed scheme. In particular the interior 'mini-pier' mobile interpretation stations and exterior 'topsy-turvy periscope' have been a great success".
The pier played host to a Summer Circus and also has plans for farmers' markets, outdoor cinema, concerts and theatre, Xmas fairs, ice rink, art installations and night sky watching as well as the more traditional seaside promenading.
Much of the funding for the renovation of the pier came from a substantial Heritage Lottery Fund grant whilst a Community Share issue in the pier's operating company raised over £600,000 from some 3,000 investors, many of whom are local to Hastings.
