In 1966, Marvel Comics introduced the Black Panther, an African monarch who became the first non-caricatured black superhero.[53] The first African-American superhero, the Falcon, followed in 1969, and three years later, Luke Cage, a self-styled "hero-for-hire", became the first black superhero to star in his own series. In 1989, the Monica Rambeau incarnation of Captain Marvel was the first female black superhero from a major publisher to get her own title in a special one-shot issue. In 1971, Red Wolf became the first Native American in the superheroic tradition to headline a series.[54] In 1973, Shang-Chi became the first prominent Asian superhero to star in an American comic book (Kato had been a secondary character of the Green Hornet media franchise series since its inception in the 1930s.[55]).

We all know zombies are sick. But in the case of this Zombie Sk8r Child Costume, "sick" is a good thing! They'll have more steeze than any other dude at the skate park.

Spider-Man Noir appears as a playable character in Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, voiced by Christopher Daniel Barnes. His reality is one of four alternate dimensions that is seeded by pieces of the Tablet of Order and Chaos.[15] Spider-Man Noir can blend into the shadows to do sneak attacks on enemies. After the defeats of the Noir versions of Hammerhead, Vulture and Green Goblin, and claims his tablet fragments, he, together with the other three Spider-Men, is teleported to their location by Madame Web to fight Mysterio, who had absorbed the Tablet and effectively became a god. After the defeat of Mysterio, the Noir and other Spider-Men return to their own realities.
Maybe they need a full size Dark Knight to help them take on their task? Whether it's trick-or-treating the toughest neighborhood or they're preparing for an epic showdown with a top villain, we're confident having an adult Batman will make sure they come out victorious. He'll probably have all kinds of extra gadgetry in his adult-sized utility belt, and with his authentic Dawn of Justice Batman costume, your children's costumes will achieve their full effect. For posing, Wonder Woman can show her muscles while Superman prepares to take flight, and no matter what the mission is, Batman will be there to look over the young ones, but he's going to look pretty fantastic in his own right, too. This will definitely be a superhero costume team for the history books!
Peter Parker originally decided to use his powers to make money but after Uncle Ben's death he decided to use his powers for good. In many ways, this makes Spider-Man less of the 'boy scout' character people think; the fact that he used his powers to have fun in the first place is something people can relate to. Initially, Peter Parker is shy and timid, but the Spider-Man alter-ego was a form of liberation and heroism, and he used it to gain confidence. However, he found the moral urge later, though some of his confidence and liberation remains, making him a sarcastic wise-guy.
Fearing for MJ's safety, Peter pushes her out of the apartment so that he could fight the Puma as Spider-Man without revealing his identity to her. MJ heard the sounds of battle. After Peter defeated Puma, MJ confessed to him that she cannot handle the danger he puts himself in. She tells him that she has always known his secret identity. Black Cat appears to reconcile with Peter which caused MJ to run away crying. She considered leaving town again but she then decided to confront Peter. They became very close and they would tell each other everything. They were hiding from their true feelings and Peter proposed to MJ. Although she initially refused, after making amends with her sister, MJ returned to Peter and accepted his proposal. Despite knowing that they are still too young and Peter's double life may make things difficult, Peter and Mary Jane tied the knot.
Issue #500 of The Amazing Spider-Man shows what would happen if Spider-Man were to have proceeded in killing Kraven by Julia Carpenter, now possessing Madam Web's powers.

He then appears in a new red leather costume and starts killing all of the supervillains, with Doctor Octopus, and reveals his identity to his Aunt May, who is shocked and in tears.[40]

Crime is on the rise in the hapless town of South Park, and the abduction of the missing cat Scrambles, suspected as part of an international conspiracy, draws the Coon back into crimefighting- at the helm of Coon and Friends, an ambitious up-and-coming superhero franchise. While the mysterious benefactor behind the crime wave enlists Professor Chaos, bringer of destruction and doom, to take out the superheroes for a hefty sum, the heroes themselves are divided by a 'civil war' over the future of their franchise plan, with the possibility of a Netflix series at stake... and only the return of the New Kid, aka the 'Farting Vigilante', can help bring balance and save the town.

On top of his spider-given powers Peter is of genius level intelligence. It has even been stated that Peter scored as high on some of the same testing scores as Reed Richards did when he was Peter's age. He is especially gifted in the sciences such as mechanics, biology and physics. This has become particularly apparent during his time working at Horizon Labs, where he was able to create a device to drain Alpha of his powers in less than 24 hours.

The Christian origins of the holiday were downplayed.
However, Spider-Man's durability isn't nearly as formidable against penetrative forces. He can be hurt by knives and bullets much in the same way that normal humans can, and has been rendered unconscious by a tracking bullet which pierced his shoulder. Normal bullets also tend to cause Spider-Man problems as well. When he lost his Spider-Sense and faced a villain known as Massacre who utilized multiple weaponry and traps, Spider-Man decided to make a bulletproof suit from tech at Horizon labs. However, if injured by such forces, Spider-Man healing factor allows him to heal much faster than normal humans can.
Reaction to Spider-Man's rogues gallery has been overwhelmingly positive with many journalists citing it as one of the greatest comic book rogues galleries of all time,[133][134][135] with Batman's rogues gallery being its most rivaled contender.[136][137] Although editors such as The Hollywood Reporter's Graeme McMillan felt that only Flash's rogues gallery can compete with Spider-Man's rogues.[134] Kyle Schmidlin of What Culture! described the superhero's rogues gallery as "one of the most colorful in comics" explaining that Batman could only be debated as having a great number of enemies as good as Spider-Man.[138] IGN staff editors, Joshua Yehl and Jesse Schedeen, described the Spider-Man villains as "one of the most iconic and well-balanced in comics". They opined that the scope of their schemes, how cool their powers are, and how dramatically they have affected Spider-Man's life is what makes the Spider-Man villains so great.[1] Newsarama ranked Spider-Man's rogues gallery as number one out ten as the greatest rogues gallery of all time.[137]

Dr. Watts (appeared in Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro): Dr. Watts (first name unknown) is a prominent scientist. She is the creator of the Bio-Nexus Device and a world-renowned scholar of biology. In the game, she is kidnapped by Hammerhead while attending the Science Industry Ball. During Spider-Man's fight with Hammerhead, Dr. Watts disappears, which led Spider-Man to believe that the Sandman took her. Due to an anonymous tip, Spider-Man tracks Dr. Watts to a museum, where she is taken hostage by Electro. After Electro leaves the museum, Dr. Watts tells Spider-Man that Electro went to the Twin Towers.
One custom that persists in modern-day Ireland is the baking (or more often nowadays, the purchase) of a barmbrack (Irish: báirín breac), which is a light fruitcake, into which a plain ring, a coin, and other charms are placed before baking. It is said that those who get a ring will find their true love in the ensuing year. This is similar to the tradition of king cake at the festival of Epiphany.
The items first appeared in the Very Scary Halloween Special event. They could be collected in the Eyeaduct map during the annual Haunted Halloween Special where a Haunted Halloween Gift would appear every five minutes on a server with 10 or more non-bot players. They were also available through the Mann Co. Store before November 8, 2011. Any gifts collected in the Underworld of Eyeaduct were awarded in the Haunted quality. Additionally, if the complete item set is worn, a special set effect could be applied.
The cowl's Kevlar panels provide a level of protection for his head against firearms. The front of the skull and the sides of the temples also have small armor inserts to increase the effectiveness of skull strikes and protect from concussive blows. Repeated encounters with the Mad Hatter also forced Batman to shield his cowl against the villain's mind control.
The wearing of costumes is an important part of holidays developed from religious festivals such as Mardi Gras (in the lead up to Easter), and Halloween (related to All Hallow's Eve). Mardi Gras costumes usually take the form of jesters and other fantasy characters; Halloween costumes traditionally take the form of supernatural creatures such as ghosts, vampires, pop-culture icons and angels. In modern times. Christmas costumes typically portray characters such as Santa Claus (developed from Saint Nicholas). In Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States the American version of a Santa suit and beard is popular; in the Netherlands, the costume of Zwarte Piet is customary. Easter costumes are associated with the Easter Bunny or other animal costumes.
In a different version of Spider-Island, Spider-Man was supposedly killed by the spider-infected Avengers which inspired Agent Venom to lead the resistance. However, he is discovered to be alive and captive in the Spider Queen's facility.

The earliest superhero I could find reference to was Mandrake the Magician, who debuted in 1934, four years before Superman, who was probably the first popular superhero. Mandrake's super power was his ability to "make people believe anything, simply by gesturing hypnotically". Does anyone out there know of any superheroes who made an earlier media appearance?
Jump up ^ Saffel, p. 65, states, "In the battle that followed atop the Brooklyn Bridge (or was it the George Washington Bridge?)...." On page 66, Saffel reprints the panel of The Amazing Spider-Man #121, page 18, in which Spider-Man exclaims, "The George Washington Bridge! It figures Osborn would pick something named after his favorite president. He's got the same sort of hangup for dollar bills!" Saffel states, "The span portrayed...is the GW's more famous cousin, the Brooklyn Bridge. ... To address the contradiction in future reprints of the tale, though, Spider-Man's dialogue was altered so that he's referring to the Brooklyn Bridge. But the original snafu remains as one of the more visible errors in the history of comics."
Spider-Man later tracked down and confronts Osborn, having dispatched all of his henchmen in turn. During their fight, it is revealed that Osborn is a former circus freak himself who hides his goblin-like visage behind one of the Chameleon's masks. After Spider-Man refuses to kill Osborn, the spider-infested and barely still alive body of Kraven appears and attacks the Goblin, killing him.[4]
Costume design is the envisioning of clothing and the overall appearance of a character or performer. Costume may refer to the style of dress particular to a nation, a class, or a period. In many cases, it may contribute to the fullness of the artistic, visual world that is unique to a particular theatrical or cinematic production. The most basic designs are produced to denote status, provide protection or modesty, or provide visual interest to a character. Costumes may be for, but not limited to, theater, cinema, or musical performances. Costume design should not be confused with costume coordination, which merely involves altering existing clothing, although both processes are used to create stage clothes.
Marvel has featured Spider-Man in several comic book series, the first and longest-lasting of which is The Amazing Spider-Man. Over the years, the Peter Parker character developed from a shy, nerdy New York City high school student to troubled but outgoing college student, to married high school teacher to, in the late 2000s, a single freelance photographer. In the 2010s, he joins the Avengers, Marvel's flagship superhero team. Spider-Man's nemesis Doctor Octopus also took on the identity for a story arc spanning 2012–2014, following a body swap plot in which Peter appears to die.[10] Marvel has also published books featuring alternate versions of Spider-Man, including Spider-Man 2099, which features the adventures of Miguel O'Hara, the Spider-Man of the future; Ultimate Spider-Man, which features the adventures of a teenaged Peter Parker in an alternate universe; and Ultimate Comics Spider-Man, which depicts the teenager Miles Morales, who takes up the mantle of Spider-Man after Ultimate Peter Parker's supposed death. Miles is later brought into mainstream continuity, where he works alongside Peter.

Due to his accelerated metabolism, Spider-Man has a higher tolerance for drugs and diseases than normal humans, and he can recover from the effects of larger doses rapidly. During an encounter with the Swarm, Spider-Man was incapacitated by thousands of bee stings, but recovered in less than 24 hours. In another example, he was able to recover from the effects of gases nearly instantly. His resistance and recovery time to other toxins and diseases varies, but is typically significantly higher than normal. Spider-Man's unique physiology even allowed him to recover from the effects of vampirism. Spider-Man was able to recover completely from acid being spat into his eyes by the new Vulture; Jimmy Natale, although the extent of the damage may have been restricted due to his superhuman durability. However, Spider-Man has the normal human tolerance for alcoholic beverages.
If the threat of facing off against two of S.H.E.I.L.D.'s top heroes isn't enough to stop a villain in his tracks, maybe the head-to-toe look of a detailed superhero costume will make the bad dudes think twice. We recommend having Captain America pairing up a big ol' fist along with his Vibranium shield , and when Iron Man stands by his side, the high tech armament courtesy of Stark Industries is sure to give the most villainous threats a pause before they attempt to enact their diabolical plans. Pose your children side by side to achieve this shot, and even if their sights are solely set on filling up their trick-or-treat bags, they'll be able to make the neighborhood rounds like true Avengers.

Following Davis's lead, Spider-Man sneaked into the ferry and went looking for the Vulture. During his scouting, Stark called him, but Spider-Man hung up on him to focus on his targets. Spider-Man interrupted the deal and defeated Vulture's gang and Mac Gargan, but the FBI interrupted Spider-Man's ambush and proceeded to arrest everyone at the scene.
The Batsuit has been repeatedly updated in order to reflect advances in technology. Originally the costume contained no protective armor since the creative talent felt that it made Batman seem too powerful to see him shrug off bullet hits. However, the real world advent of various forms of personal protective materials like Kevlar and the realization that being shot while wearing such protection still should be avoided, has led to the costume being re-imagined with varying forms of bulletproof protection which employs the aforementioned use of the suit's chest symbol to lure shots at the armor's strongest point. Despite the armor, Batman almost always evades gunfire and is very rarely actually shot. After recovering from his spinal cord injury (the result of Bane's attack), Batman reinforced the armor with a material to dampen shocks and impact, along with a spinal brace, to protect himself from such abuse.
As students saw it, their pain ought to have been the decisive factor in determining the acceptability of the Halloween email. They thought their request for an apology ought to have been sufficient to secure one. Who taught them that it is righteous to pillory faculty for failing to validate their feelings, as if disagreement is tantamount to disrespect? Their mindset is anti-diversity, anti-pluralism, and anti-tolerance, a seeming data-point in favor of April Kelly-Woessner's provocative argument that "young people today are less politically tolerant than their parents' generation."
Spider-man meets a strange individual named Ezekiel, whom knows that he is truly Peter Parker, and warns him of a powerful enemy whom will try to kill him, known as Morlun. Peter follows Ezekiel and tries to find out why he knows so much about him. Ezekiel tells Spider-man that he is part of a "Spider-Totem", witch is why his enemies all are animals as well (Rhino, Lizard, Doctor Octopus, Vulture). Spider-man does not care much about these strange stories, but is happy with the help that Ezekiel provides when he finally encounters Morlun. He barely defeats Morlun, and struggles back home after the fight. He lands on his bed, with a torn-up Spider-man costume and falls asleep. It is at this time that aunt May enters the room and sees Peter as Spider-Man. The secret is finally out! Aunt May walks away and uses a full day to comprehend the facts before she finally confronts Peter with it. Peter tried to talk his way out of it, but finally sees that it is no use and then told his aunt May about why he became Spider-Man. It was during this time that Peter and Mary-Jane again renewed their relationship and their marriage-vows. Marry-Jane returned to live with Peter and the two where a happy couple once more.
It seemed that Spider-man was finally back on track, with his name cleared and his life finally looking a bit better than it had in recent months. Norman Osborn however kept being a disturbing presence to Peter and Mary Jane. He started a ritual known as the Gathering of the Five, with one person getting Ultimate power, one got death, one got insanity and so on. Norman thought he gained power, but it turned out that it was insanity that he got. He attacked and kidnapped Peter. While he was captive, Peter got the shock of a life-time. His aunt May was standing in front of him, alive and well. After Spider-man broke free and defeated Norman Osborn, seemingly for good, as he was taken to a mental hospital, Peter learned that it was in fact aunt May he found. Not a clone, not a hoax. Norman had apparently kidnapped May years ago, and had an actress surgically look like aunt May and play her part while she was dying. This was why 'aunt May' knew about Peter being Spider-Man, she was hired by Norman Osborn to play her! Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four assured Peter it was his aunt. Peter saw this as a sign and stopped being Spider-Man altogether, finally living a good life with his aunt May and his wife Mary-Jane.

Amazing Spider was caught between the machine and was placed in a comatose state.[60] While in a coma, Amazing Spider's soul arrived in Hell where Bruce Banner's Sorcerer Supreme counterpart died fighting the Infernal Hulk. Though Bruce's astral form stayed alive and helped return the Amazing Spider to life with the souls of the repentant damned which gave him a second chance to live. When he awoke, he found himself transformed into a new character called the Ghost Spider. To make amends with Spider-Man, Ghost Spider transported him, Deadpool, and Hulk back to Earth-616.[61]

Reconnaissance Drone: In addition to altering the suit's size, the spider emblem on his chest is capable of detaching from its socket, utilizing a miniature propulsion engine from its tail section that allows it to fly through the air independent of Spider-Man's control. It has a tracker mode which allows it to fly onto a target and relay its position to the Spider-Man Suit, allowing Parker to follow targets through the interface of his Web-Shooters.

The reporter Eddie Brock had accused the Sin-Eater as one man. He then became very angry with Spider-Man, when the webslinger unmasked Sin-Eater and it turned out to be a different person.

Spider-Man discovered the symbiote costume during the Secret Wars and it became his primary costume until he discovered that it was an alien feeding on him. With it, he had an unlimited supply of webbing, and the suit could mimic his civilian clothing. It didn't, contrary to popular belief, enhance his powers. After meeting with Mr Fantastic, he decided it must be destroyed and would later get rid of it using the sounds of a church bell. It would later bond with Eddie Brock to form the deadly villain known as Venom. The Black Cat would later give Spidey a cloth version of the black suit which he would start wearing for a time, switching between it and the red & blue costume. After the Kraven's last Hunt story and the appearance of Venom for the first time, Mary Jane urged Peter to stop wearing the costume because it reminded her of those traumatizing events. During the Back In Black story, after Aunt May was shot by a sniper, a darkness filled Spider-Man's heart like never before. He wore the black costume to show this dark side, becoming much more ruthless towards enemies (using torture for example). Peter attempted to infiltrate Stark Tower to stop Norman Osborn, he used a black costume made of unstable molecules to disguise himself as the Venom. During the Grim Hunt story, after Kraven was recovered, he presented Peter with a black costume as a calling card after the Kravinoffs killed Peter's "brother" Kaine. He once again wore this costume and became aggressive towards the villains, vowing to hunt them all down. He was about to kill Kraven with a spear until he was convinced otherwise by Arachne and Arana. The black suit represents Spider-Man's dark side.

The Toei Company had made a television series based on Marvel's famous hero as a tokusatsu in Japan. Even though the powers and costume are the same; the man behind the mask was a young motorcycle rider named Takuya Yamashiro who instead of getting bitten by a radioactive spider follows his archaeologist father and discovers a UFO called "Marveller" from the planet "Spider". When his father was killed exploring the ship, Takuya meets the lone survivor from Spider. It gives him a bracelet that not only grants him the same costume and the same powers as the American version but it also allows him to summon a giant robot (which looks an awful lot like a Power Ranger zord) to fight the evil of Professor Monster and his monstrous minions. The series lasted 41 episodes and is available in streaming video on Marvel's website.
As different artists have taken over the responsibility of drawing the character, the details of the suit have changed considerably. The original incarnation of the cape was a wing-like structure inspired by drawings by Leonardo da Vinci. This eventually evolved into a more cape-like design of varying length. Some artists draw the cape with protrusions on the shoulders, likely representing the "thumb" part of a bat's wing, though this is not a consistent addition. The cape is occasionally depicted as bulletproof.The cape varies according to the current writer, sometimes being depicted as bulletproof and fire resistant, and other times being nothing more than simple fabric that tears easily and sustains constant damage and is continuously replaced.

We carry everything from officially licensed Power Rangers Ninja Steel costumes to our Blackstone Ninja, Ice Dragon Ninja and Ghost Dragon Ninja costumes.
And there's (at least) one more angle to this as well…where did the idea of the superhero come from? As Meg suggested to me at dinner last night, was there a cultural need for a superhero during a super-crisis like the Great Depression? Or did the idea evolve gradually from regular heros (cowboys, space cowboys, etc.) to heros who were magicians (with special powers…it's not that much of a stretch to imagine a magician possessing supernatural powers) to classic superheroes like Superman?
It is claimed that in the Middle Ages, churches that were too poor to display the relics of martyred saints at Allhallowtide let parishioners dress up as saints instead.[92][93] Some Christians continue to observe this custom at Halloween today.[94] Lesley Bannatyne believes this could have been a Christianization of an earlier pagan custom.[95] While souling, Christians would carry with them "lanterns made of hollowed-out turnips".[96] It has been suggested that the carved jack-o'-lantern, a popular symbol of Halloween, originally represented the souls of the dead.[97] On Halloween, in medieval Europe, fires served a dual purpose, being lit to guide returning souls to the homes of their families, as well as to deflect demons from haunting sincere Christian folk.[98][99] Households in Austria, England and Ireland often had "candles burning in every room to guide the souls back to visit their earthly homes". These were known as "soul lights".[100][101][102] Many Christians in mainland Europe, especially in France, believed "that once a year, on Hallowe'en, the dead of the churchyards rose for one wild, hideous carnival" known as the danse macabre, which has often been depicted in church decoration.[103] Christopher Allmand and Rosamond McKitterick write in The New Cambridge Medieval History that "Christians were moved by the sight of the Infant Jesus playing on his mother's knee; their hearts were touched by the Pietà; and patron saints reassured them by their presence. But, all the while, the danse macabre urged them not to forget the end of all earthly things."[104] This danse macabre was enacted at village pageants and at court masques, with people "dressing up as corpses from various strata of society", and may have been the origin of modern-day Halloween costume parties.[96][105][93][106]

Oh my, what a day!
Then I talked to this old internet friend of mine (I wrote about him once… Hmm I'll call him Sander). And it was really funny. I really laughed a lot and it was just like old times. Talking about random things, laughing.. teasing each other. So my afternoon was kind of fun actually.
Then I had to go to the vet with baby girl. Which was terrible. Been there an hour but she just wouldn't calm down 😦 the vet was really nice and very helpful.
After that my mum, for the hair dresser. Well that was ok. Just the normal tension.
I do need to clean the litter box today (Last time was Sunday which ended in me gagging uncontrollably again and shaking over my whole body) so I'm kind of scared of that now. Plus I really gotta try to clean myself in some way. Showering might be a step to far. So maybe just at the sink in the bathroom. Ugh, why is this so annoying? Cause.. yeah my clothes are clean, I use deodorant etc. so I don't think I'm very smelly. My mum usually tells me, 'Brianna, you're getting smelly', but she didn't say that today so I guess I'm ok? Anyway, I feel disgusting, but I know showering wont help me. So that's a struggle.
I am really balancing on a small cord and I can't do that for too long. But I do have to clean the litter box + myself. So I'm just gonna do that now I guess.. and hope I wont fall down.
Tomorrow therapy. + Talk with Brandon.

First Planet Candidate Detected by Kepler is Finally Acknowledged
Allie Cooper
Wednesday, 13 March 2019 - 9:07AM
Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech
Nearly 10 years after its discovery, planet Kepler-1658b has now been officially recognized as an actual plant. It's all thanks to the efforts of a team of researchers from the University of Hawaii's Institute for Astronomy, led by graduate student Ashley Chontos.
But before the team was able to confirm its status, NASA dismissed it as an anomaly.
When it was discovered by the Kepler Space Telescope in 2009, the initial excitement died down due to miscalculations about the exoplanet's host star. The sizes of both the planet and the star had been underestimated, resulting in inconsistencies and, eventually, the discovery's dismissal as a false positive.
In their paper published in the Astronomical Journal, the researchers explained how they were able to rectify the previous analysis: "Our new analysis, which uses stellar sound waves observed in the Kepler data to characterize the star, demonstrated that the star is, in fact, three times larger than previously thought. This means that the planet is three times larger, revealing that Kepler-1658b is actually a hot Jupiter," explains Chontos.
Kepler-1658b is one of the planets closest to its parent star, as it completes one orbit around Kepler-1658 in just 3.85 Earth days. It turns out that its parent star is an advanced and bloated version of our own Sun, about three times larger and with 50% more mass.
This re-discovery provides interesting new insights on how hot Jupiters behave as well as a better understanding of exoplanets' host stars. It can also offer a glimpse into how solar systems such as ours will turn out in the future as host stars age and evolve.
Kepler-1658b's re-classification is another accolade for the team behind the revolutionary space telescope. It has been responsible for approximately 3,800 confirmed exoplanet discoveries in its lifespan spanning roughly a decade. Kepler ran out of fuel on October 20 last year (2018) and has been retired by NASA. The decision was passed down just months after another iconic space exploration instrument, the Mars rover Opportunity, stopped communicating with the space agency. We covered this story on Outer Places, and detailed how Opportunity exceeded all expectations by staying functional on Mars for almost 15 years.
The recent Kepler-1658b news can be attributed to yet more innovations in analyzing astronomical data. Because the Kepler space telescope cannot be upgraded, scientists had to come up with new ways to interpret the data.
The use of stellar sound waves in Chontos' analysis was key, indicating the crucial role software innovations play in this area.
NASA's Kepler/K2 Guest Observer Office has also developed numerous programs such as PyKE and K2ephem to help with analysis. PyKe is used on pixel files and it's instrumental in interpreting images captured by the telescope, while K2ephem is vital in reading the motion of one celestial body, such as a potential planet. Most of these were not available for their current build when Kepler was launched, and they signify monumental advancements in both astronomy and software development.
Fortunately, it looks like any further developments will have adequate funding with CBS News reporting on NASA's proposed 2020 budget that will come from the Trump administration. As NASA and other agencies launch new spacecraft and instruments, it seems apparent that even more sophisticated software will take on a significant role in exploring the vast outer layers of space.

Hereford plant increases permitted production capacity
White Energy, one of the nation's leading producers of biofuels, animal feed and food ingredients, announced that its Hereford, Texas plant now has a permitted production capacity of 130 million gallons of ethanol per year. The plant, designed by ICM and built by Fagen, had a nameplate capacity of 100 million gallons per year when it opened in 2008.
"This plant is poised to begin immediately ramping up its ethanol production. We continue to invest in capital improvements that will reduce production bottlenecks and we expect to approach the 130 million gallon capacity next year," said Grant Johanson, White Energy's Interim CEO.
The Hereford plant produced 108.3 million gallons of ethanol in 2016 and is projected to produce more than 115 million gallons in 2017.

'Welcome to Kutsher's': The Resort With a 'Dirty Dancing' Connection
"Caroline Laskow and her husband Ian Rosenberg directed and produced the documentary, "Welcome to Kutsher's: The Last Catskills Resort," which explores this [Dirty Dancing] connection, offering an immersive, fly-on-the-wall look into the Kutsher's Hotel and Country Club, from its beginnings as the Kutsher's Brothers Farm House in 1907, through its heyday in the mid-20th century, and then to its closing last year."

Watch the ABC News Slideshow - How Resort with 'Dirty Dancing' Connection Evolved
"Anyone who spent time in the Jewish Catskills hotels ... must see the new documentary, Welcome to Kutsher's. Not only will the film transport you back to the glory days of your youth and thousands of memories, but it will also make you long for a world that is now lost forever. ... Thank heavens for this wonderful documentary.... Do not miss this film. Trust me."
ALA Booklist
"For more than a century, Kutsher's Hotel and Country Club, in the Catskill Mountain region in New York State, was the epitome of the Borscht Belt experience. This evocative documentary recaptures and immerses viewers in a bygone era through interviews with Kutsher family members, friends, former staff members, historians, and venerable comedian Freddie Roman (recurring bits of his show at the resort are a highlight). Kutsher's was the most enduring of hundreds of vacation havens for Jews, who were banned from many resorts. Photos of signs decrying 'We Cater to Gentiles Only' are chilling. Home movies, newsreel clips, and archival footage bring Kutsher's heyday to life; use of split-screen images, quick cuts, and fast-forward photography convey the pell-mell pace. Separate portions are devoted to sports, food, activities, and entertainment. As the song goes, 'You don't know what you've got till it's gone,' and this welcome documentary preserves a vital piece of Jewish American history.
The Jewish Advocate
"This is the real deal!"
"After closing in 2013, the former Borscht Belt hotel — famed as the inspiration for the fictional "Dirty Dancing" resort — is to be reincarnated as a $250-million yoga center. Kutsher's continues to live on through film: The documentary Welcome to Kutsher's: The Last Catskills Resort was released on DVD and on-demand services last week."

"At some point this summer, there will be rain, or a traffic jam, or a sharknado, and you'll decide to stay home. And when you do, we recommend making a brisket and watch Welcome to Kutsher's.

"The joy of Welcome to Kutsher's is that it captures what was unique and special about the hotel while also expounding on the larger significance of the Catskills in the American Jewish consciousness."
"The film honors the legacy of those who made summer memories so colorful for so many generations, and sheds new light on a vibrant chapter of the American Jewish experience."
"A witty look at the history and sociology that made the Jewish hotels and resorts of the region rise and, more recently, vanish.... Welcome to Kutsher's has a great deal of charm and makes a fitting closing-night film for this year's festival."
"A great documentary about the hotel's heyday and its current faded glory."
"One priceless moment in the film that's worth noting is the footage of a young, seven-foot-plus Wilt Chamberlain who, while working as a bell hop at the resort, wouldn't bother to climb the stairs. He'd simply wait for you to open your window, then hand your luggage up to you on the second floor."
Hadassah Magazine
"This entertaining documentary traces the socioeconomic history of the Borscht Belt, Kutsher's role as hotbed of Jewish humor and the Kutsher family's dedication not only to its hotel guests but to its staff—including the tall, young bellhop Wilt Chamberlain, for whom the Kutshers built a special bed. Great archival footage makes you yearn for more."
"In Welcome to Kutsher's, the multi-talented Midwesterners give viewers a taste (kosher, of course) of the last Jewish resort in the Catskills."
North Country Public Radio
"Last of the Borscht Belt Leaves a Sports Legacy"; an interview with the directors of Welcome to Kutsher's
Julia Moskin comments on how Welcome to Kutsher's is, in part, "a documentary about how the traditional foods of Eastern European Jews were served (and preserved) with American abundance in New York's borscht belt resorts."
TimeOut New York
"Tighten your borscht belt and prepare for Wilt Chamberlain sightings."
New Jersey Jewish Standard
"A well-crafted look at American Jewish life in transition. Caroline Laskow and Ian Rosenberg not only place a lens on the Borscht Belt era and its profound impact on American life and culture, but like skilled anthropologists they study what in fact is one of the last remaining "artifacts" and its significance."
Israel's Haaretz
"Best Picks" of the New York Jewish Film Festival; "This is an amusing portrait of the rise and fall of the Jewish hotels in New York's Borscht Belt."
"For those who have harbored a soft spot for Catskills resorts ever since they first saw Dirty Dancing, be sure to see the closing night film, the world premiere of Caroline Laskow and Ian Rosenberg's Welcome to Kutsher's: The Last Catskills Resort, a documentary about the last surviving Jewish resort in the Catskills and its overarching influence on sports, entertainment and "Borscht Belt" comedians."

On Friday, Adele released 25 on iTunes — so far, it looks like it won't be available for streaming on Spotify — and, to be honest, she kind of ruined everyone's day. I mean, people have work to go to, and other people have school to go to. There were only two ways your Friday could go: either you were denied the joy of listening to this album on repeat because you had previous commitments you couldn't have your headphones on during, or you were going to get in trouble on Monday because you didn't show up to whatever prior commitment you had that you decided was less important than Adele's first album in four years.
And, honestly, I can't really blame you. Adele's album isn't just new; it's good. "Hello" and "When We Were Young" were just small tastes of the level of awesomeness that Adele managed to pack into a single album, and every song proves that she has hardly lost her touch. I got chills listening to "Water Under the Bridge" and "River Lea," but I think "Sweetest Devotion" is the one that I'll be listening to on repeat for the rest of the weekend. When Adele does pretty much anything, the people listen, and this album proves why. Hopefully, we won't have to wait another four years for the next one.

While implantable Neural Interfaces hold great promises for longitudinal neuroscience studies and clinical neural prosthesis, the longevity of functional performance presents a major hurdle for practical applications. In all chases, signal quality decreases over time and ultimately fails. Device failure can occur through multiple different modes including surgery quality, device placement, material failure, gliosis, neural degeneration, metablic injury to neurons, neural circuit disconnect, meningeal regrowth, and device pull-out. Due to the complex and sometime combination of failure modes, the exact mechanisms that lead to implant performance failure and the rate of associated failure remains a mystery.
However, intelligent device design of next-generation neural interfaces cannot be pursued without first understanding the intimate details of each failure mode.
This project aims to dis-entangle the failure modes through in vivo multiphoton microscope, visually evoked intracortical and subcortical electrophysiology, multichannel immunohistochemistry, and comprehensive electrochemical and material characterization (EIS, CV, SEM, EDX).

black utopia: songs in the dna of a young democracy
By ZamaMdoda
There's this thing that happens when Black people congregate. It's an unexplainable force of familiarity and community that is only enhanced by the presence of music. It's like one of the most potent stimulants for Black creativity and when you throw our natural flair for exhibition and artistry into the mix, utopias get born on sticky dancefloors, in and around car stereos and anywhere a speaker can be heard. Music has always played a part in easing political strife as a tool for creating awareness during Black struggles so bearing witness to cultural impact when bringing communities together is watching the magic of Black Utopianism at work.
Brenda Fassie (MaBrr for short) was one of the first Black female pop stars South Africa knew thanks to her hit 'Weekend Special' by her band Brenda And The Big Dudes. Her solo hit 'Vulindlela' was one of the early iterations of kwaito-influenced pop. She was the definition of anti-apartheid Afro-pop and her domination of the genre had her filling stadiums in 1985. Time Magazine called Fassie 'The Madonna of the Townships' but her unapologetic brazenness makes her more of a South African love child of Eartha Kitt and Grace Jones. Her energy was infectious and her demeanor bold, which can only be expected from someone singing about being a weekend booty-call in the early 80s. She was the free-spirited cultural touchstone for youth culture in the nascent stages of a young democracy,

If Fassie was the pop star, then TKZee was one of the first South African boy bands to doll out hit after hit. Tokollo Tshabalala, Kabelo Mabalane, and Zwai Bala first ventured onto the charts with "Shibobo," which sampled "The Final Countdown" and was created in the run-up to the 1998 World Cup. The song became the fastest and biggest selling single by a South African recording artist in history, garnering enough attention to make TKZee household names across the African continent. Their song "Fiasco" was a latin-inspired hit that ushered in the era of summer songs in South Africa. It didn't do the same numbers as "Shibobo" but it was fun and the fusion of genres spoke to a freedom to experiment that South African musicians were leaning into at the turn of the century.
This creatively fertile environment ushered in a kwaito boom in the late 90s that gave South Africa some of its most legendary kwaito groups. Before Thandiswa Mazwai was "King Tha," she was the lead singer for kwaito-soul group Bongo Maffin. Jah Seed, Stoan, Speedy and Thandiswa released "Thathi Isigubu" in 1998 which turned them into household names as the song became an instant feature at any and all Black family gatherings.
Another kwaito group with more American influences was Boom Shaka made up of Junior Sokhela, Lebo Mathosa, Theo Nhlengethwa and Thembi Seete. Boom Shaka's sound depicts heavy R&B influences, sounding heavily like a South African SWV. Both groups encapsulated different areas of kwaito but each shaped their respective spaces in a genre lodged in the DNA of South Africa.
The South African national anthem is considered the national call to unity, boasting four of South Africa's 11 official languages. The Black South African anthem, however, is Sister Bethina by Mgarimbe (Nkosinathi Mfeka). The opening staccato notes, sampled from Aaliyah's 'Try Again", feel like a siren call, ceasing all activity and creating rhythmic shuffle to the nearest dancefloor. If there isn't one, one will be created. It's the cult favorite that was born in a club in 2005 when Mgarimbe jumped on a Fruity Loops beat made by his friend Jabu Mgeni. The lyrics are crude and according to Times Live, Mgarimbe asked Mgeni to delete the song the next morning. Thank goodness that didn't happen. I'd miss witnessing and participating in all the musically-incenses stampedes like when 'Candy' plays a Black American wedding. At this point, it's just Black law.
Even as Black South African staple, Sister Bethina has appeal across races but the original unofficial national anthem was 'Nkalakatha' by Mandoza. Nkalakatha is the Blackest song I have ever seen non-Black audiences lose their mind too. It was at weddings, school dances, work functions, birthday parties, etc, etc. Any yawn-inducing lull at a party immediately evaporated when it played, with most of the crowd badly mouthing the words if they bothered to try at all. The point was to dance – whether you were rhythmically gifted or not didn't matter. The songs steady tempo is forgiving like that.
For me, music sits at the heart of any moment that made the South African democracy felt possible. That feeling is preserved in the collective "aww" anytime these hits are played. Even with the heavy cultural influence Black America had on South Africa, these songs were pillars of Black musical expression in a newly freed African country building its own cultural voice. The embracing of Black music by non-white South Africans isn't an indication that anti-Blackness is cured but the cross-cultural popularity of sings created solely to conjure Black Utopias forged connections where there were none before – these connections were an added bonus to the cultural-building work that music in the 90s and early 2000s. The audio monuments would feature on the soundtrack to South Africa's growth as a young democracy. Name still pending…

AFROPUNK's Artist You Should Know: 27Delly Shares New EP, "Wake Up"
AFROPUNK PREMIERE: We Can't Get Enough Of Delishia J's New Single "Put You On"


I found some ads for nice-looking restaurants in a magazine so I looked up the addresses on Google maps and we decided to go the one that was closest to where we are staying.
The restaurant was called Yogi's and it's on a street called Commercial Drive which also happened to be a place where a guy called Jason had recommend – so I figured it was a good bet.
We walked pretty slowly and filmed things on the way so it took about an hour to get there.
Commercial Drive turned out to be a nice place. Lots of shops and restaurants that looked interesting.
Our lunch was tasty and the service was good. In their ad it says: We specialize in cuisine created for such personalities as Bryan Adams.
But Bryan Adams wasn't there and the waitress said it was quite a while ago that he went there.
We had someone to meet at 2:30. So we walked from here to here. It took about an hour walking pretty fast.
That turned out to be a place called Yaletown which was quite nice. Everyone seemed to be wearing new, designer clothing - a bit different than our neighbourhood.
We went back home and had a bottle of wine.


The industrial engineer is a broadly-trained integration engineer, concerned with enabling complex systems to function effectively. Managing the inventory of a production facility, for example, involves issues of production and stocking policy, manufacturing equipment, human resources, customer demand, and supplier relationships. The industrial engineer must understand the interaction of the components of a system, and coordinate the flow of materials and information to effectively manage the operation. The industrial engineer plays an important role in defining information needs and developing strategies for decision-making based on incomplete knowledge. However, the skills of the industrial engineer have much greater application than to traditional production environments. In a growing service sector of the economy including health care delivery, public safety, air transportation, and banking, for example, issues of resource management, scheduling, quality of service, and systems design are important.
Traditionally, the manufacturing engineer was responsible for developing the process capability to realize the output of design engineering. Today the boundary between design and manufacturing engineering is becoming blurred; both groups work together in teams to assure the soundness of design and production capability. The manufacturing engineer must have an understanding of the design process, but the manufacturing engineer's special expertise is the knowledge of the production process.
Today's production is computer-based and provides flexibility through computer control. The manufacturing engineer is responsible for designing and implementing the cells and production lines which become the basic units of manufacturing. Increasingly, such production units are becoming parts of an integrated factory system, not simply islands of automation. The manufacturing engineer must understand the multi-layered control architecture of the integrated factory, and the computer-based technologies which enable it.

AMC Will Require Guests to Wear Masks In Its Theaters Following Backlash
By James Crowley On 6/19/20 at 1:55 PM EDT
Culture AMC Theater Movies Movie
Following public backlash, AMC Theatres announced that it would change its policy, now requiring guests to wear masks, once theaters begin reopening in July.
In an interview with Variety, AMC CEO Adam Aron said that guests wouldn't be required to wear masks, because the company "did not want to be drawn into a political controversy," although he said that he would wear a mask and "lead by example."
In a statement given to The Hollywood Reporter, the company stated that it had intended to encourage guests to wear masks and assumed many patrons would. "We thought it might be counterproductive if we forced mask wearing on those people who believe strongly that it is not necessary. We think that the vast majority of AMC guests will be wearing masks," Aron said to Variety in the original interview.

AMC Theaters Draws Backlash for Not Requiring Masks to Avoid Politics
AMC said that the change of policy was a direct response to the criticism from guests and that the change reflected the theater chain's commitment to honoring guests.
"[I]t is clear from this response that we did not go far enough on the usage of masks. At AMC Theatres, we think it is absolutely crucial that we listen to our guests," the statement said. "Accordingly, and with the full support of our scientific advisors, we are reversing course and are changing our guest mask policy. As we reopen theatres, we now will require that all AMC guests nationwide wear masks as they enter and enjoy movies at our theatres. The speed with which AMC moved to revise our mask policies is a reflection of our commitment to the safety and health of our guests."
In its statement, AMC said it would continue to keep tabs on the scientific community's most recent knowledge regarding masks, and will be informed on other changes going forward for the mask policy.
The company said that guests can bring their own masks or buy one for a dollar at the theater. "Those who are unwilling to wear a mask will not be admitted or allowed to stay," the statement concluded.
AMC Theatres did not respond to Newsweek's emailed request for comment in time for publication.

AMC plans to open most of its locations on July 15, according to Variety.
As previously reported, many other theater chains won't require masks if local states or counties do not require it. Despite many forgoing the mask requirement, Alamo Drafthouse tweeted that it would require masks when it reopens locations. "We will require that guests wear masks at the theater (except when eating/drinking). Those without masks will be given one," the company said.
