Marvel Graphic Novel #4
(November, 1982)
Charles Xavier, founder of the X-Men, became increasingly worried after losing several students. The first Thunderbird died on his second mission, and Phoenix had committed suicide. In an attack by the Brood, Xavier believed that all of his X-Men perished. He sank into depression and vowed not to put any more young mutants in danger.
His friend and colleague, Moira MacTaggert finally convinced him to reopen the school to help young mutants after receiving a letter from Mr. Fantastic regarding Xi'an Coy Manh's need to control her powers. She said her alternatives were the Hellfire Club or Magneto. This time, Professor Xavier would only train them in the use of their special powers, and not send them out into combat.
Moira returned to Muir Island where she encountered a wolf that changed to the form of an orphan adolescent girl she knew, Rahne Sinclair. She had been shot and was being pursued by villagers led by the Reverend Craig. Moira backs them down. She then became Rahne's guardian and took her to Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters where they met Xi'an (Shan), a.k.a Karma, who had just arrived. Karma's power is to possess a person, controlling the body.
That same day, Charles received a letter from Black Eagle, the father of a man who saved his life in Korea, William Lonestar, his blood-brother. The letter described Lonestar's daughter as needing help to learn to control her mutant powers. Professor Xavier and Karma went to Wyoming.
Meanwhile, Donald Pierce, White Bishop of the Hellfire Club, planned to use young mutants to take control of that organization away from Sebastian Shaw and kill mutants. With a mutant scanner he became aware of Danielle Moonstar using her powers. He sent a team there to kill Black Eagle, Danielle, and Professor Xavier. Black Eagle was killed before Xavier arrived, then after a fight, Xavier learned that Pierce was after two other mutants, one in Kentucky, the other in Brazil. Danielle, who couldn't control her power, obeyed Black Eagle's wishes that she join Xavier, but did so out of vengeance.
Moira, Karma and Dani went to Brazil to track down Roberto da Costa, whose power was super-strength powered by sunlight. Pierce's agents lured him out of hiding by kidnapping his girlfriend, and planned to kill them. His girlfriend was killed in the fight and he agreed to join Moira and the mutants to get those responsible.
Professor Xavier and Rahne drove through Kentucky where they were ambushed by Samuel Guthrie, whose mutant power is rocket-like flight, and who was working for Pierce. Xavier was captured, but Rahne escaped in wolf-form, and the Hellfire agents did not detect any human beings nearby. She followed them to their base and was met by Moira, Karma, Dani, and Roberto. They invaded the base, but were subdued. Pierce ordered Guthrie to kill them but he refused. Xavier got free and defeated Pierce, but would not kill him or let him be killed. Tessa, who was Pierce's captive, said she would deal with him. They left Guthrie behind, but he arrived in New York some days later, by Xavier's invitation to join The New Mutants.[1]
Original Team:
Karma, Xi'an Coy Manh, "Shan": Vietnamese woman able to mentally possess others. Besides being a student, she was hired by Xavier as a secretary so she could support her little brother and sister.
Wolfsbane, Rahne Sinclair: Scottish girl with the ability to shift into a wolf as well as a transitional part-wolf/part-girl form. Also exhibited fast healing ability.
Psyche (later Mirage), Danielle Moonstar, "Dani": Native American girl able to create illusions based on others greatest fears or desires, also able to telepathically communicate with an animal (Wolfsbane in her wolf or transitional forms).
Sunspot, Roberto da Costa, "Bobby": Brazilian boy of mixed race who gained super-strength due to solar energy.
Cannonball, Samuel Guthrie, "Sam": American boy from Kentucky able to rocket through the air while near-impervious to harm.
Stevie Hunter had previously been the off-campus dance instructor for Kitty Pryde and been aware that Professor Xavier's school hosted the X-Men. Upon the formation of the New Mutants, she became their dance instructor as well as serving as their chaperone and adviser.[2]
Xavier was unaware that when the X-Men originally fought the Brood in deep space, the Brood had secretly infected him with a Brood queen embryo. Part of his decision to form the New Mutants was the embryo's influence to collect superior genetic hosts for more Brood. However, it saw the psi-powers of Danielle ("Dani") as a threat and tried to get her to quit the team.[3]
The X-Men returned from space and fought and defeated the New Mutants. Then Xavier transformed into a Brood Queen and they defeated him. Using advanced Shi'ar technology, Xavier's mind was transplanted into a cloned body, which would eventually allow him to walk again. He apologized for his actions and invited the New Mutants to stay at the school, which they did.
Because Sunspot's first use of mutant powers was during a soccer match, the US government tracked him to Charles Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters and became aware of the other New Mutants. Sebastian Shaw, who was building Sentinels for the government, sent a team of agents and sentinels to capture the New Mutants, while they were with Stevie Hunter at the mall. They were defeated and the agents arrested with help from Michael Rossi.[4]
The New Mutants went to New York City to see Cats (Shan was not with them). Instead of going straight home afterwards, they ran afoul of a gang of teens. Wolfsbane and Sunspot were knocked out, kidnapped by mobsters and injected with a drug similar to the one that created Cloak and Dagger. It turned them into monstrous versions of themselves. Psyche and Cannonball met up with Cloak and Dagger and Spider-Man to rescue them. Cloak and Dagger used their powers to absorb the drugs from Wolfsbane's and Sunspot's systems to restore them to normal.[5]
While viewing a motorcycle demonstration by members of Team America, agents of Viper attacked and the New Mutants fought them. Team America unintentionally transformed Dani Moonstar into their Black Rider and she was kidnapped by the Silver Samurai and Viper.[6] Xavier trained the full Team America to steal a crystal from an A.I.M. base in Mexico to pay Viper's ransom. Meanwhile the New Mutants assembled in Big Sur, California awaiting Professor Xavier's orders to rescue Dani. A malevolent psychic force attacked Xavier. Out of contact with the professor, Karma led the New Mutants to Dani's rescue, which succeeded. The entity then attacked Karma at the moment Viper, while escaping, destroyed her own headquarters. The New Mutants fell into the ocean, Karma went missing, and Xavier let them presume she was dead, to protect them.[7]
Karma left group: M.I.A.[7]
The New Mutants then immediately went with Roberto's mother, an archeologist, to Brazil.[8] While the New Mutants went with her on an expedition in the Amazon jungle, they were captured along with Amara Aquilla by soldiers of Nova Roma and imprisoned.[9] Now held prisoner by Selene, Amara was to be sacrificed. Selene used her mutant powers to drain Amara's life energy into her own body. Dani attacked Selene causing her to release Amara from her control, but Selene knocked Amara into the pit of lava. Somehow, rather than harming Amara, her immersion in the lava awakened her latent mutant powers. Together, Amara, with her new-found powers, and the New Mutants defeated Selene and helped thwart Senator Gallio's attempt to kill Senator Aquilla and seize power. Amara's father instructed her to go to the United States with the New Mutants to learn about modern civilization and control her powers. Amara became a member of the New Mutants under the code-name Magma.[10]
Magma, Amara Aquilla: Blonde Caucasian girl of Roman descent. Manipulates tectonic forces, causing eathquakes and lava eruptions, can tunnel through rock and fire bolts of flame.[11]
Magik, Colossus' sister came to live with the X-men at about six years old. She was kidnapped to a demonic limbo by Belasco where she aged six years before freeing herself and reuniting with the X-Men.[12] Despite not discussing her ordeal, she became Kitty Pryde's roommate and best friend. Although Professor Xavier was able to teach her fluent English in her sleep,[13] she had developed psi-shields which prevented him from reading her thoughts.[14] Illyana did not exhibit any other abilities until she programmed a Danger Room training session for the X-Men which had them face Belasco. She summoned a sword and attacked Kitty, cutting her even though she was phasing. Kitty knocked the sword out of her hand and tackled her, whereupon she returned to normal.[15]
Nothing more involving her powers happened until the demon S'ym was ordered by Belasco to retrieve her. His presence made her forget her magic powers. She used her mutant power to teleport Stevie's car and The New Mutants to a time in her past in Limbo before she knew them, then teleported them back to the present inside the mansion. They fought S'ym on her behalf, unsuccessfully, before she recovered and summoned her soulsword to threaten his life. He renounced Belasco and swore loyalty to her and she returned him to Limbo. Professor Xavier returned and danced with Illyana, whereupon she felt he knew what she'd experienced in Limbo and still accepted her.[14]
Kitty Pryde's friend and fellow hacker, Doug Ramsey was invited to tour the Massachusetts Academy, a resource of the Hellfire Club.[14] Xavier revealed that Doug was a mutant with the power of communication with beings and computers,[16] and wondered if the Hellfire Club knew this (previously, Doug had helped Kitty hack in to the Hellfire Club).[14] Kitty went with him but was captured by the White Queen of the Helfire Club, who was presumed still catatonic from Mastermind. The White Queen told Kitty that Doug was in love with her and thought she was still with him. At the same time, the X-Men, the Avengers and the Fantastic Four were transported to the planet of the Secret Wars. Illyana used her astral form to check on her roommate Kitty, and discovered she was a prisoner. The White Queen sensed her presence through Kitty's thoughts and sent a psi-bolt at Illyana. Her astral form was disrupted but returned to her body. Some form of demon-familiars came out of her, encountering the New Mutants before she regained control of herself. She then confessed to them that she was a sorceress as well as a mutant.[17]
Illyana demanded the New Mutants go with her to Kitty and Doug's rescue, which they did by bus (at the bus station in New York City, Sunspot and Wolfsbane go to the observation deck as if in a trance, staring at the church where they met Cloak and Dagger the previous Summer). Illyana did not have her own New Mutants uniform, but wore Kitty's original one for the mission.[17] The night of the rescue attempt they fought in pairs against the White Queen's teenage mutant team, The Hellions. Sunspot and Rahne were defeated by Thunderbird and Roulette, but the others were only overcome when the White Queen arrived and used her telepathy to pacify them. She made Doug forget he saw the New Mutants and the Hellions use their powers and returned him to bed. Illyana used her psi-shields and teleportation powers to escape, taking Dani with her.[18] Kitty and the New Mutants were locked in a dormitory where they couldn't use their powers; Doug was not with them. After resting up, Dani and Illyana returned to the Massachusetts Academy, but caught a glimpse of a future a year later where the New Mutants had joined the Hellions. Illyana escaped the White Queen again, teleporting them back to a week after their first rescue attempt. The Hellions captured Illyana and Dani, but were not content with the White Queen interfering with their battle as well as holding the New Mutants against their will, so offered them a deal. After Cannonball won the duel with Jetstream, Sebastian Shaw and the White Queen arrived, saying they would not honor their bid for freedom and fought the New Mutants. The White Queen reflected Dani's power back at her, making her see her greatest fear: the Demon Bear that killed her parents. When the New Mutants were escaping with Kitty, Wolfsbane invited Catseye to come with them but she said she was happy at the academy. Doug was left behind, coming back to his home in Salem Center by normal means, ignorant of the mutants at the Academy and Xavier's school. After this, the close friendship he'd developed with Kitty ended. Illyana then joined the New Mutants.[19]
Magik, Illyana Rasputina: Blonde Russian girl whose mutant power can teleport her and others through time and space (but each trip was tied to her Limbo), she learned magic by an alternate-reality Ororo and the Demon-lord Belasco, but didn't like to use either power. She learned to use a sword by an alternate-reality Kitty Pryde, and can summon the sword she once created from a part of her soul. The Soulsword can disrupt magic spells, magic-entities and demons. As ruler of Limbo, she could summon demons and order them to do her bidding.
Dani (now Mirage) believed The Demon Bear was coming for her, so fought bears with her bow and arrows in the Danger Room, but wouldn't let the others know why. She went alone outside Xavier's mansion in the snow to summon it to fight. She used her power on it to reveal its greatest fear was her. She shot it with arrows and it fell, but it was pretending and attacked her. Rahne, who was sleeping in human form, woke screaming that Dani was hurt. The New Mutants ran outside to find Dani nearly dead.[20] They took her to the hospital for emergency surgery, and the prognosis was that she would never walk again. The Demon Bear came to the hospital, where the New Mutants battled it to a standoff. It transported them to its world along with a police officer and a nurse.[21] It tranformed them into its agents to fight the New Mutants, while it tried to break through Magik's protective spells around the operating room. At a point when Magik would have been injured, a section of silver armor appeared on her arm. The Demon Bear possessed Magma, before Magik used her Soulsword to free her. She then used it to attack the Demon Bear, which released Moonstar's parents from the spell they were under, returning them to their human forms. After surgery, Moonstar was reunited with her parents, and received additional healing from the Morlocks' Healer, though she would use a wheelchair, then a cane for some time. Officer Corsi and Nurse Friedlander were freed from the Demon Bear's influence, but remained locked in super-enhanced bodies with Native-American appearance. They then became associated with Professor Xavier's school and the Mutant Research Center on Muir Island first as patients,then as staff.[22]
Sam returned home to Kentucky, along with Professor Xavier and the other New Mutants (Dani was not with them). Some time in the recent past, Hybrid (a Dire Wraith/human crossbreed with mutant powers) had escaped from limbo, regenerated into his teenage, male human form and had become the ward of the local preacher. Although the Earth-Wraith war was heading for conclusion, Hybrid was not involved. His desire was to create more hybrids like himself, breeding with human and mutant women. Rom and Starshine arrived but he defeated them, making Rom banish himself to Limbo, and restoring Brandy Clark to her human form. He then defeated Xavier and the New Mutants, though Magik escaped. Instead of going to her own Demonic Limbo, she teleported to the limbo of the Dire Wraiths. She then teleported herself and Rom back to Kentucky where they defeated Hybrid.[23]
One night, the girls of the New Mutants hosted a slumber party with girls invited from the local high school, (apparently without adult supervision). The techno-organic alien Warlock arrived, fleeing his sire, the Magus. Warlock fought the New Mutants in the confusion that erupted, then tried to communicate. The mutants went to town to ask Doug Ramsey for help in communicating with the alien, revealing both they and he were mutants. Doug succeeded in talking with Warlock, and the New Mutants invited Warlock to join them, which Professor Xavier accepted when he returned to the school. Doug Ramsey soon joined the team and school as well. Ramsey chose the codename Cypher, as his mutant ability allowed him to decipher codes and languages. Warlock and Cypher shared a close bond, often sticking close together in battle.[16]
Warlock: a techno-organic alien being who can travel via his own body up to interstellar distances. He can transform his body into other forms. Although he can impersonate a human being's form, his attention span makes it difficult to maintain it for long.
Cypher, Douglas Ramsey, "Doug": Blonde Caucasian male from New York. His mutant power is to understand languages, making him adept with computers, able to communicate with beings and understand foreign or alien writing.[16]
New Mutants as of issue 21
Roberto got backstage passes for the New Mutants to attend Lila Cheney's last concert on her world tour. Before the show started, Sam saved Lila from falling equipment. Warlock discovered an alien was trying to kill Lila. Lila concluded the concert by activating a stargate, teleporting her band and Sam across the galaxy to her Dyson Sphere. Warlock activated the stargate for the New Mutants to follow but they arrived in space a light year away. He saved them by assuming the shape of a vessel and went to that location. Lila was planning to steal the Earth and sell it to the highest bidder. The alien that attacked wanted an exclusive deal and got one of her staff to betray her, before he killed him. The New Mutants defeated the aliens, but damaged the planet-moving technology, setting up a self-destruct which would destroy the Earth. Doug used his power to translate the instructions and turned it off. Lila revealed that her mutant power was to travel inter-stellar distances, and used it to return them to her home in London. Lila became Sam's girlfriend.[24]
Roberto and Rahne had been acting strangely. Somehow they stole Cloak and Dagger's powers, respectively, but Roberto couldn't deal with Cloak's Darkness power and trapped Colossus in it. Professor Xavier attempted to sort it out in New York City accompanied by some New Mutants and Rogue. Illyana tried to help, but initially did more harm than good. Tyrone was back to his stuttering self, and didn't want his power back. Eventually all were restored to normal.[25]
Shortly afterwards, an autistic patient at Muir Island, David Haller, attacked Thomas Corsi and Sharon Friedlander, rendering them catatonic, and flame-blasted the room. Professor Xavier flew in with New Mutants Mirage, Warlock, Cypher and Wolfsbane. He met the boy's mother again, Gabrielle Haller, a former patient and love-interest. The woman had asked Moira MacTaggert for help regarding her mutant son, David, who was suffering from multiple personality disorder, but previously did not want Charles Xavier involved. Xavier believed Gabrielle was withholding information, but refused to scan her mind.[26]
Although weak from being attacked by mutant-hating students in New York City, he agreed to probe the boy's mind, finding a wall to protect David from real-world experiences. In the process, Moira, Dani, Rahne, Gabrielle, Doug and he were absorbed into David's mind, representing a war-torn cross-city of Beirut and Paris. There they met the three personalities each representing a psi-power, who called themselves Legion. When Xavier finally met David, he learned that David is his son, and the source of his autism and multiple-personalities was a terrorist attack that killed his stepfather, David Shomron. In that event, he killed the terrorists and absorbed the leader's psyche giving it control of the telepathic power. This had been reintegrating the multiple personalities, until only two others remained. In the core of David's mind, the telekinetic personality attacked Xavier rendering him comatose, and damaged the pattern of memories. Dani took charge and demanded the cooperation of the personalities, and restored everyone to their bodies, leaving Legion, but with the David's child-mind in control of his own teenage body. Charles did not regain consciousness for a fortnight, where he met David in the flesh, who had come out of his autistic state.[27]
The Hellion, Empath, had his powers blocked by the White Queen after taking part in Thunderbird's vengeance plot against the X-Men and losing Firestar from the control of the Hellfire Club. To take revenge against Xavier, he gave dosiers of Sunspot and Magma to a representative of the Gladiators (Earth-616).[28]
The New Mutants who are not with Professor Xavier on Muir Island were supposedly invited to an indoor pool party at the high school. There, Sunspot and Magma were kidnapped by the Gladiators, while Magik and Cannonball failed to rescue them, but they captured one of the kidnappers, who tells them of the Gladiators. Illyana teleports herself and Sam to L.A., but a week has passed and she doesn't want to try again. They went to Lila Cheney's L.A. residence and studio, from where she teleported them to the Dyson Sphere, with her backup singer, Alison Blaire, inadvertently walking into the room at that moment. She revealed she was the Dazzler and agreed to help.[29]
Meanwhile, Sunspot and Magma were coerced into fighting in the arena, by threat of killing teenage runaways in their place. They also receive drugs to increase their fighting attitude. Cannonball, Magik, and Dazzler were about to rescue them when Magneto demanded they follow him to confront the Beyonder, but Bobby and Amara refused to go with them.[30][31]
Later, Kitty Pryde, now code-named Shadowcat, led Dazzler, Rachel, Sam, and Illyana on another rescue attempt. Dazzler tried to infiltrate the Gladiators, having encountered them previously, but seemed to join them in spirit. So when she made contact, Bobby and Amara wouldn't trust her. Kitty, also infiltrated the Gladiators as a techie, and learned about the threat to the runaways. After discovering there were no runaways held hostage, she tried to rescue them and Dazzler, but was attacked and possessed. During the battle that followed, they discovered that the leader of the Gladiators was a fake, and Karma (now morbidly obese) was the power behind it. She fled to Madripoor, letting her uncle take the fall for the Gladiators as the police arrived. Kitty and Rachel returned to the X-Men, while all the New Mutants pursued Karma.[32]
In Madripoor, Karma captured the New Mutants, except Dani, Illyana, and Warlock, then fled to Cairo. Illyana teleported herself and Dani to a future-Cairo, where they met killer versions of their teammates. After finally teleporting to the present, they met up with Ororo and Warlock. After another rescue attempt was only partially successful, Illyana believed that another entity was possessing Shan. Without their consent, she turned Ororo and the New Mutants over to Karma, excepting Warlock, who she used to fight Karma. Illyana was able to awaken Shan from her own possession so Shan could confront the agent possessing her, Amahl Farouk, on the Astral Plane. Meanwhile, Illyana teleported the New Mutants and Ororo to Limbo, freeing them. Shan won, dispelling Farouk and regaining control of her own body and powers.[33]
Karma rejoined the New Mutants.[34]
Danielle Moonstar becomes a Valkyrie
After helping Shan to free herself from the clutches of the Shadow King, Ororo (who'd lost her powers) and the New Mutants were recuperating on an island in the Mediterranean. Loki asked the Enchantress to capture and punish the X-Men, and deliver Ororo to him. However, she captured Ororo and the New Mutants and brought them to Asgard. Magik tried to use her teleportation power to escape, but the Enchantress' magic blocked it, which caused the other New Mutants to be scattered in time and space across Asgard, while Illyana remained the Enchantress' prisoner. Karma spent months in the desert, seemingly protecting a young girl, but regaining her will to live and reducing her morbidly obese form. Dani developed a psi-link with a flying horse and freed it from the barbed ropes and mire in which it was trapped, and from its hunters, unknowingly becoming a Valkyrie. Rhane developed a romance with a wolf that could transform similar to her transitional form. The New Mutants were able to reunite, freeing their members from the Enchantress and defeating her. Ororo was still under Loki's power.[35]
At this time, Odin had fallen in the Surtur War and Thor was leading Asgardians through Hel to free wrongfully-imprisoned mortal souls, so there was no one in authority to help fight Loki. The Norn Queen, Karnilla, secretly alerted the X-Men and helped them reach Asgard. Together with the New Mutants, they planned to confront Loki in front of the remaining Asgardians, as he gave Ororo a magic hammer which restored her weather powers. On the way Dani saw a Death-image over Wolverine, but didn't understand it was her new power to sense those about to die. He was soon poisoned, and his healing-factor wasn't coping. During the confrontation, Ororo attacked Wolverine, mortally wounding him, but rejected Loki and destroyed the hammer. The Valkyror arrived and backed them up, preventing Wolverine's death. Kitty Pryde said that if Loki did not relent they could all disappear in Asgard until Thor or someone else returned for them to tell of his actions. Loki said they could leave Asgard if all agreed, but would be restored to the state they arrived, excepting Karma, who would not be restored to her morbidly obese body. The Valkyror countered that it was not for him to declare Dani no longer a Valkyrie, so she was able to leave with her horse and new powers. Loki teleported the New Mutants and X-Men to Paris where Magneto was set to stand trial at the International Court.[36]
Headmaster Magneto
During Magneto's trial, Fenris attacked seeking revenge on Xavier and Magneto for their father's earlier defeat by them. Xavier was injured and went into space with Lilandra to recover. He made Magneto promise to take over the school as headmaster and continue teaching the New Mutants in his name. Magneto agreed, and took on the alias, Michael Xavier, his cousin, which Charles had set up for this eventuality.[37]
Back at the mansion, the New Mutants were skeptical of staying on at the school under Magneto, just on his say-so, not having heard from Professor Xavier. They decided to give him a chance, after he roughed-up some fraternity men who attacked Dani on her way home from town.[38]
The Beyonder was still on Earth and decided to take Illyana as a disciple, cleansing her soul of her evil Darkchylde persona. As a result, her Soulsword, armor, and the Beatrix Medallion containing her bloodstones were transferred to Kitty Pryde. Also, demons were now appearing and one captured Kitty, and would sacrifice her to make the fourth bloodstone. Illyana said she no longer cared and demanded the other New Mutants become followers of the Beyonder, but only Sam complied. They convince her that she cannot remain good after Kitty is sacrificed, so rejected the Beyonder, regaining her powers and Darkchylde aspect, then freed Kitty from the Demon holding her.[39]
Roberto, who faced spiritual crisis after encountering the Beyonder, decided to return to Brazil, taking off his New Mutants uniform as a symbolic gesture of leaving the school and the team, which likely saved his life. Dani got a flash of imminent death for the New Mutants, excepting Bobby, so got on her flying horse and flew off, but Sam followed and convinced her to come back. The Beyonder slaughtered the New Mutants, erased them from reality, then brought them back as his slaves to fight other super-heroes.[40]
After the Beyonder was gone, the New Mutants were freed, but were left with the memory of being killed, revived and forced to fight. Traumatized, they were left uncaring and unmotivated, with nightmares of fighting and dying repeatedly. Dani, while caring for her horse, Brightwind, finally had an emotional breakthrough, and recovered. Meanwhile, the White Queen used Empath's powers to manipulate Magneto into feeling helpless, so she could get him to transfer the New Mutants to her Massachusetts Academy, which he did, excepting Mirage and Warlock. However, Sharon and Tom discovered Empath on the grounds where he used his power to make them feel an all-consuming passion for each other and they left the school.[41]
The White Queen inducted them into the Hellions, and Empath found that his power didn't work on the girls in their emotionless state. Using her telepathic powers over the next weeks, The White Queen modified their memories so they could function again, but they were still having nightmares. When Tom and Sharon finally returned to the school and told Magneto about Empath, Magneto was furious and ready to go after the New Mutants, which the White Queen sensed. She called the sheriff, who alerted the Avengers to fight Magneto when he arrived. Magneto escaped and met up with the New Mutants. Together over the next few days, Magneto and The White Queen helped the New Mutants to deal emotionally with their experiences. The New Mutants returned to Xavier's school.[42]
Sunspot rejoined the New Mutants.[43]
During a mission to return their teammate Bird Brain to his home island, the villainous Ani-Mator captured the New Mutants, but thanks to the friendship made with Bird Brain, the humanoid animals that the Ani-Mator had made, came to their rescue. During the battle, Doug wanted to help their friends but felt that his powers could not help, and if he tried to fight with his hands, he would get in the way. But when the Ani-Mator aimed a gun at Wolfsbane while she was fighting a Smile-Face, Doug couldn't stand still and hurled into the way, and was shot to death by the Ani-Mator.[44]
Sy'm used Magik during Inferno, forcing her to use spells that would weaken the dimensional barriers and transform her into the demonic Darkchylde. She found a way to stop Inferno, although she knew it risked her no longer existing. Colossus found a badly damaged armor, but Illyana was still alive inside. Opening it, he found Illyana had returned to her natural age.[45] Her Soulsword magically came into Shadowcat's possession, eventually ending up resting in a rock outside of Excalibur's lighthouse headquarters.[46]
Doug's death and Illyana's sacrifice have drove Magneto far away from his students as he blamed himself for his death as well as homo sapiens. The New Mutants were left without a headquarters of their own and lived temporarily at X-Factor's. Tabitha Smith, Rictor, Rusty Collins and Skids joined the team when the X-Terminators and the New Mutants merged.[47]
When Hela attempted to take over Asgard, Dani and the other Valkyrior were infected with a mystical fever. Hela planned to use Moonstar to gather humans to her forces to defeat Thor. Transported back to Asgard, Moonstar fell under the sway of Hela and nearly killed Odin. Hela was defeated by the combined forces of the New Mutants and the Asgardians, and the New Mutants were returned to Earth; all except Moonstar who chose to stay behind, hoping to repair the damage as a Valkyrie.[48]
Cable and X-Force
Cable took command of the New Mutants to guide Cannonball's ascension into the Externals.
The New Mutants were captured by the X-Men's enemy Cameron Hodge and taken to the island of Genosha, a mutant-repressive nation with advanced anti-mutant technology. Hodge had developed a cybernetic body and attempted to siphon off Warlock's shape-shifting power so he could change his robotic body at will. Hodge was confronted by the combined might of the X-Men and New Mutants, while Warlock was still imprisoned. Although Hodge's plan was thwarted by the New Mutant Wolfsbane, Warlock appeared to have died, his energies leeched from him, reducing him to ashes. Later, Warlock's ashes were scattered over the grave of Doug Ramsey.
When Sunspot's father died (killed by the External Gideon), Bobby went with Gideon, who was an old friend, to take over his father's business. Gideon, however, was looking for the next External, mistakenly thinking that it was Sunspot. With the addition of Feral, Shatterstar, and Warparth, the team reorganized into the original X-Force under Cable. The name "New Mutants" was later used by the New Mutants Training Squad.
New Mutants Reunited
After years of each New Mutant doing his own thing, X-Men leader Cyclops gave Cannonball permission to assemble his team again.
While on a mission to investigate a possible mutant case in Westcliffe, Colorado, Karma and Moonstar disappeared prompting the rest of the New Mutants team to investigate. After finding a lead pointing to a little girl the group found a catatonic Karma and a concrete box that held the mutant Legion. The personalities in Legion's body wanted to kill Dani because she could help Legion get them under control. Legion located Dani in a jail cell and was about to kill her when Sam stopped him. Dani told Sam to let her out but Sam refused, saying she'll be safer in the cell since she didn't have her powers anymore. Sam and Roberto went off to fight Legion leaving Dani behind. Unbeknownst to them, one of Legion's personalities had the ability to project himself and was stalling them while he prepared to kill Dani but was stopped by Magik and Magma. They freed Dani as Legion retreated, Sam apologized but got punched in the face by an angry Dani. When asked where she was going Dani replied "to make myself useful"; she returned brandishing numerous firearms and told the others that they're going after Legion.[49] However Sam told Dani to go, she wasn't a mutant anymore and to stop pretending she was because one of the most powerful mutants on earth wanted her dead. Dani, upset got into a van and drove away only to turn back minutes later after her teammates were badly beaten, running over Legion. After a brief battle with him, Magik managed to regain control of his body. Sam tried to apologize but Dani limped away, ignoring him.[50]
Later, when the X-Men established their new base on Utopia, they and the New Mutants battled the forces of Norman Osborn. To defeat the god Ares, who was a member of Osborn's Dark Avengers, Dani went to Las Vegas where she made a deal with Hela to get her Valkyrie powers back.[51][52] When her powers returned, she won against Ares and the team decided to live on Utopia[53]
Cyclops asked Dani to resume her previous teaching position with the X-Men. Dani was more interested in joining Sam's team, but was informed by Cyclops that Sam had submitted a request for a permanent roster and didn't include Dani. Dani challenged Sam to a duel in the Danger Room and the two came to an understanding during their fight. Sam allowed Dani to rejoin his team and vowed to treat her as an equal.[54]
Later, the witch Selene used the Transmode Virus to resurrect all of the mutants who had died before and after M-Day. Cypher was one these mutants. Selene controlled Cypher with the Virus and ordered him to kill Magma. At the same time, Warlock went to Doug Ramsey's grave to find it had been dug up and his body missing. When the New Mutants saw Doug, they were happy at first. They didn't know Selene was controlling him, but he attacked them and nearly killed Amara. Karma later took control of the other New Mutants so she could defeat Doug. Warlock arrived at Utopia and, not understanding the situation, defended his friend. He was contaminated by the Transmode Virus and Cypher decapitated him. During the battle, the New Mutants were attacked by the Hellions that Selene had also resurrected. Warlock repaired himself and then he was saved from the Virus by the Cloak of Magik. He then registered the anti-virus in his body and used him to cure Cypher so they could defeat the Hellions together. During the Siege of Asgard, Hela summons and calls Dani in her favor: to gather the spirits of the Asgardians that fell in battle with Norman Osborn's forces. Dani accepts to do it.
When the Mutant Messiah is back from the future with Cable, the New Mutants have to fight against Cameron Hodge and The Right. During the battle, Karma is seriously injured by Cameron. Also Cypher try to tell Warlock than the only way to get out of the Right's base safe is to forget his vow of not killing human lifes, saying "Either you do this thing, or else it's all over. And we've failed. And every single one of us dies." Cypher convinces Warlock, who kills Cameron Hodge and the Right's members to save the New Mutants. After the battle, Madison Jeffries is forced to amputate Karma's left leg because of her injury.
On another mission, Illyana, who was with another team of X-Men, is sent to Limbo. With a team who featured no other New Mutants, Sam goes in Limbo and brings back Illyana. Dani later confronts Cable, telling him that he is putting every other mutant in danger by bringing Hope here, and she and Hope have a fight.
Cypher is later recruited by X-Force to go into the future with them and destroy the mastermind system. When Cypher melds with the mastermind system and overtakes it, all the Nimrods who were attacking Utopia are deactivated.
When Hel is attacked by the Draumar, a group of ancient powerful demons that could devour and destroy souls took over Hel and seemingly killed Hela, Dani Moonstar was recruited by a raven, which actually housed Hela's soul, to rescue the queen of the dead and help her reclaim her domain.
The other New Mutants realized that Dani had gone missing and went to visit Illyana in her cell to request her help. Though she refused as she was imprisoned she informed them of Dani's whereabouts and gave them the means, namely an old and complicated teleportation spell, to travel to Hel and rescue their teammate.
Unfortunately Doug accidentally mistranslated the spell due to the words themselves appearing to be alive and transported them to Hell as apposed to Hel.[55] Mephisto promised to transport them to their required destination on one condition, a date with Amara. After strong disapproval from her teammates Amara agreed and they were transported to Hel by Mephisto.[56]
After reuniting with Dani and returning Hela's soul to her, resurrecting her in the process, Hela granted the New Mutants a portion of her power in order to hold off the Draumar while she formulated a plan to deal with them permanently.
The Draumar appeared to have an aversion to Warlock and being unable to destroy him due to his being unfamiliar extraterrestrial technology that they could not understand, causing them to disintegrate on contact with him. Nate realized this and concluded that due to his dimension hopping he would be of a more drastic effect on them stating that he had witnessed such culture shock before as two universes came into contact and one destroyed the other. He asked Hela to show the monsters his life history and she complied, this provided the desired effect and the demons were vaporized on the spot.
With her realm once again under her control Hela thanked the New Mutants and transported them back home safely.[57]
After the event of Schism, the X-Men are separated in two teams, one lead by Cyclops and the other by Wolverine. The New Mutants choose to continue to work with Cyclops, however instead of living on Utopia with the other X-Men the New Mutants decided to find an apartment together in San Francisco in an attempt to have a more normal existence.[58]
Post-Regenesis
The group were contacted by Cyclops and tasked with finding Blink and returning her home safely. After finding the wayward mutant they discovered that she had been travelling the world saving people as an act of penance for the crimes she had committed while working for Selene, actions which she blamed herself for even though she was acting under Selene's influence.
Blink has been tracking down the source of several natural disasters that have been happening recently. She informs the New Mutants that she has been tracking the heavy metal band Diskhord as they seem to be causing the events during their performances, putting many people at risk in the process.[59]
Doug discovers that the band have come into (and under) the possession of a sentient inter-universal space craft that has been badly damaged and is accumulating chaos energy with which to send out a distress call to its other fragments so that it can rebuild itself, however he is kidnapped by the band after they manage to escape from the New Mutants.
The group find Doug after he reactivates his communicator and broadcasts a message to the group so they can rescue him. As group try to deal with the destruction being wrought by Diskhords latest performance and save as many people as possible, Amara uses her powers to hold back the earthquake the band are trying to unleash in an attempt to sink Chicago in order to accumulate enough chaos energy, of which she is successful after much strain and encouragement from Bobby.
The ordeal is finally ended when Blink teleports herself and the part of the alien craft into space, with Warlock acting as a makeshift rocket to protect her, and the pair of them launch the object into space, severing its control over Diskhord who have no memory of the recent events.
Dani contacts Cyclops and informs her that she gave Blink a choice, to join the New Mutants or to travel to Westchester with Wolverine, of which she chooses the latter. Dani apologizes to Cyclops, believing she has disappointed him, however he tells her he is proud of her for making a sensible decision based on what Blink thought was best.[60]
Amara later follows through with her deal to going on a date with Mephisto, much to the displeasure of the other New Mutants. While initially overwhelmed Amara discovers that Mephisto was indeed only interested in a date and had no intention of trying to double-cross her. The date ended with Amara and her team left unscathed, Amara even admitted to enjoying herself and agreeing to see Mephisto again if he wanted.[61]
During the war between the Avengers and the X-Men, the New Mutants are on the X-Men's side at first. When the five X-Men Cyclops, Colossus, Namor, Magik and Emma Frost are possessed by the Phoenix Force, Emma reads the minds of the former and current New Mutants, she sees that all of them trust her and the other X-Men possessed by the Phoenix, with the only exception being Cannonball. At the end of the war, when Cyclops has taken control of all the power of the Phoenix and kills Professor X, the New Mutants and the X-Men join forces with the Avengers to fight against him, the Phoenix is then taken from him by Hope Summers and killed with help from Scarlet Witch.
Post-Avengers vs. X-Men
After the war, the New Mutants disbanded, with Cannonball and Sunspot having joined the Avengers, Dani Moonstar becoming a member of the Valkyrior of Midgard (a team of heroes who is an all-female version of the Defenders) and Cypher and Warlock joining Polaris's new X-Factor.
Transportation: X-Men Blackbird, interdimensional teleportation using Magik's powers, flight using Warlock's aircraft form.

"Global financial market volatility has awoken from its slumber," in the words of ANZ economists.
US equity markets are down around 9% from their all-time highs, with European and Asian markets in similar states.
After holding near historic lows for the majority of 2017, the VIX measure of US equity volatility has spiked to its highest level since 2011 (bar a brief period in 2015).
"Global growth momentum is strong at present, and this is leading to speculation that inflation is finally set to make a comeback, particularly in the US.
"Indeed, US average hourly earnings growth, at 2.9% year-on-year in January, is at its highest level since 2009, which has helped cement expectations for ongoing Federal Reserve policy normalisation.
"The Bank of England surprised last week with a more hawkish tone than anticipated, noting that monetary policy will "need to be tightened somewhat earlier and by a somewhat greater extent" than previously expected.
So with uncertainty around the pace at which interest rates will be hiked spurring market volatility, what should retail investors do?
Summer KiwiSaver Investment Committee chair and Authorised Financial Adviser, Martin Hawes, says this isn't the time to reassess your risk profile.
"If you are feeling uncomfortable with the amount of volatility and the way your portfolio is going, you need to wait until this settles down and then reset your risk," he says.
Hawes recognises some believe the current market weakness is a precursor to a crash. However, he doesn't see this happening.
Rather he sees markets settling down in a matter of weeks or months, so remains bullish.
Ultimately, he believes "the fundamentals are still in place". World economies and companies' profits are still growing strongly. Interest rates also remain low.
Hawes is of the view that despite China's rising influence, the US economy continues to have the greatest impact around the world.
The notion, 'when America sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold,' isn't going away anytime soon.
Hawes accordingly recognises markets may be spooked by the prospect of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates in the US five or six times this year.
He maintains that if the Fed Board of Governors' new chair, Jerome Powell, came out and said rates wouldn't be hiked more than three times, markets would calm down.
He notes that in addition to strong US jobs data dashing expectations around gradual rate rises, having a new chair in the driver's seat is increasing uncertainty.
Hawes also accepts the share market is letting off some steam, further to it getting ahead of itself.
Finally, he maintains high frequency algorithm trading has exacerbated market volatility.
"Large numbers of these algorithms are working on the basis of momentum. If the market is going down, many of the algorithms will automatically start shorting, and that will magnify the extent of the fall.
In line with his view that we'll see markets bounce back soon, Hawes believes now is a good time to buy.
While he sees an uptick being "reasonably synchronised" across markets, he continues to favour international equities over New Zealand and Australian ones.
With global shares - European ones in particular - languishing, they've been better priced relative to shares on the New Zealand market, which has had a very good run.
To further allay investors' concerns, Hawes makes the point that investors (like those in KiwiSaver) who make regular contributions, should take comfort in the fact they've been getting bang for their buck, purchasing more shares at lower prices in recent weeks.
So using this logic, you would never execute a stop loss. That doesn't seem like a winning long term strategy to me.
Seems a bit of a contrast with John Mauldin's more maudlin measurings.
I suggest the difference lies in the time frames they are speaking to. No doubt debt has to be paid, but the current situation could go on for years and years before consequences get very serious.
In the short term Mr Hawes is probably correct, in the long term Mr Mauldin is probably correct.
Mr Maudlin provides some interesting sums that go beyond rhetoric, so it will indeed be interesting to see how short 'short term' is and how soon 'long term' arrives, especially with the Fed already unwinding.
Quite reassuring. Thanks to the author.
"I do not have a perfectly functioning crystal ball and so I'm not certain an economic or market crash is coming (if I was I would sell everything). Nevertheless, I am concerned enough by the risk of a fall to cover the possibility"
"I have sold down because it appears to me that shares do not offer sufficient reward for the risk at the moment. At the moment, share prices are high both internationally and in New Zealand. It is difficult to imagine there will be any great rise from these quite high levels........"
Have you not sold down a bit rastus? Taken some profit to balance your portfolio?
yep. About 6 months ago sold out 50%. Recently changed a kiwi fund into cash from growth. Thinking about getting some gold.
Good article thanks Janee - appears Dalio has a similar outlook to Hawes - although it appears Dalio is shorting a lot of European stocks at present.
That's right. Bridgewater is very skeptical of everything, particularly European manufacturing. If Ray Dalio is playing the media, that doesn't bode well. He is typically a sincere individual.
Thank goodness we have different risk profiles as investors .
This bloke is , in my humble opinion .......... wrong .
Asset prices have become disconnected from reality , there is more debt out there than fish in the sea , and central banks keep printing . Household debt , government debt and corporate debt are at levels never seen before , its not sustainable if just one number in the equation changes we are in trouble.
If interest rates go up by just 1 % it will dramatically affect anyone with debt , and especially companies with debt as they are forced to service higher borrowing costs , and this will reduce profits and dividends .
We have some companies on the major world stock markets with PE ratios of 20 up to 100 ........... 20 to 100 years to get your money back .
How dumb is that ?
Good for you for saying that you think he's wrong and being humble about it.
So now you're a stock market expert. Do you know how to calculate a P/E ratio? Are you really telling us that accompany lie say Mainfreight is trading on an absurd ratio? Have you seen their balance sheet?
What about F&P Healthcare? I was there yesterday with the NZ Shareholders' Assoc and have been a shareholder since 2004. have you seen their balance sheet. They trade on a admittedly demanding multiple,but they are a world class company,with the earnings growth to back it up.
I don't think you know the first thing about the stock market.
Yes, this is very interesting but not being reported. Don't scare the sheeple I guess.
So that's interesting - am I seeing things or is the data between 27 Dec and 3 Jan - that was shown yesterday as that crash you describe, now no longer showing on the chart?
Wow! You are right. I just checked the graph again and it has been deleted, yet this event did happen because it was reported via several other various sources which led me to the graph. Now today it has been discontinued. Interesting indeed.
Tainui - any idea how this type of data is tracked/recorded?
The only knowledge that I have on tracking the data, is that every Wednesday weekly the stats were being reported for years... way back to as far as the 1960's at least. When I checked the graph a few days ago it showed an 80-81% drop of interbank lending from 27.12.17 - 03.01.18 and then yesterday the graph was updated with a notice stating that this graph has now been discontinued. Read into that what you will. It may be the reason why the sudden drop happened, or something else is going on. Other than that I have no other explanation.
Have you considered the possibility that Banks have 31 December balance dates and therefore want to dress the balance sheets to have the least reliance on other banks as at year end?
No I didn't consider that, but banks are required to report their stats on a regular basis and not all banks have the same reporting timeframes. For example in NZ, ASB has an entirely different reporting timeframe when it comes to reporting their profit margins compared to the other 3 banks: ANZ, BNZ & Westpac which are first cabs off the rank.
The link you gave was to the American banks. The end of year is called the 'turn'. In the '80s (when I was in the Markets) it was often illiquid and the risk is magnified by the number of days. You can get spikes by just a few banks trying to dress balance sheets or square up a short position. It's not necessarily indicative of any stress.
Thanks Ex Expat. That makes sense.
It's because of FED funding, banks don't need each other any more.
"Summer KiwiSaver Investment Committee chair and Authorised Financial Adviser, Martin Hawes"
Tis a reminder that NZ Kiwisaver fund fees are ridiculously high. Quite the rort.
'when America sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold' Well ok. But also consider the US has more than a cold. It's actually really really sick. Debt cancer up to the eyeballs, it's terminal and only a matter of when.
This week's US CPI print will settle things once and for all.
I see China's central bank just issued a record 2.9 trillion Yuan of new loans last month (640 billion NZD) to keep their economy afloat. Why is it that I cant afford a house in Auckland again?
How much of that 640 billion will find its way into the corruption circuit and eventually into western property.

Becky and her Big Star Productions team will change your online presence!
Before meeting Becky I was frustrated. I knew the kind of web presence I wanted but I didn't know how to work the "backend" to attain my vision. I was tired of hearing people tell me 'you need someone to fix things on the "backend" ' Here I was feeling great about having my pulse on pop culture and social media, yet everyone around me knew where the "backend" was except for me. Not cool! Where is the backend, how do I get there, who can help me get there?! Becky and her team showed me the way to the backend, guided me, and taught me while working their magic on the back end of my new website, The Anna Report. As my brand continues to evolve and grow, I know I have Big Star Productions to not only work the backend for me but also give me creative insight.


Hidden away in the canyons of a highly restricted military base on the edge of the Mojave Desert is the largest concentration of rock art in North America, possibly in the world. Images of animals, shamans, and puzzling abstract forms were pecked and painted on stone over thousands of years by a now long-gone culture. Talking Stone: Rock Art of the Cosos is a multivocal investigation of this art.
Acclaimed cinematographer Paul Goldsmith takes the reader on a visual journey through this limited access area with more than 160 stunning color photographs. The book is structured around Goldsmith's treks into the remote desert canyons and his meetings with archaeologists, Native Americans, a psychologist, an artist, bow hunters, and the commanding officer in charge of the military base. The result is a visually striking book that gives the viewer a personal and visceral experience of this enigmatic art.
Paul Goldsmith has been a filmmaker for 40 years. He is an elected member of the American Society of Cinematographers and has received a number of awards for his work, including an Emmy for the National Geographic documentary, Don't Say Goodbye; a film he photographed, When We Were Kings, won an Oscar. His interest in Native American history was piqued when he worked as director of photography for the PBS series "We Shall Remain." He is on the board of the California Rock Art Foundation.

Sruwaddacon Bay () is a tidal estuary which runs through the middle of the Gaeltacht Kilcommon parish in Erris, County Mayo, Ireland. It is of historical importance in Irish legend, an important marine habitat, an E.U. Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and an EU Special Protected Area (Birds Directive). Its translated name in English, "Stream of the Long Hound", reflects its general shape. It enters the Atlantic Ocean through Broadhaven Bay, another Special Area of Conservation.

The estuary measures approximately 8.4 square kilometres and consists of a north-westerly-orientated main channel fed by the Glenamoy and Muingnabo rivers. A second channel flows around the village of Rossport from the northwest and is fed by the Gweedaney stream.  Both channels join into a fast flowing channel which widens out into an exposed bay at the mouth of the estuary. The lower portion of Sruwaddacon Bay has exceptionally strong currents.

Natural history

Most of the estuary is dominated by marine species with little depth in the upper and middle sections at low water and a significant intertidal area.  It has few anthropogenic impacts with a mostly agricultural catchment and the small village of Rossport located at the centre of its two main channels.  The outer area of the estuary is predominately sand and sand dunes where it flows into and out of Broadhaven Bay, the mid-estuary is mainly hard substrates of cobble and rock while the upper estuary has a mixture of sand and mud substrates.  There are patchy areas of Fucus cover in the middle and lower areas of the estuary but the majority is unvegetated.

Salinity values recorded at beach sites were high in the middle and lower estuary – around 30 p.p.t.  Salinity values close to freshwater were found at the confluence of the Glenamoy and Muingnabo rivers.

This estuary and Broadhaven Bay into which it drains, is an important breeding ground for salmon, whales and dolphins and of importance to the local fishing and recreation industries.  There are extensive areas of intertidal mudflats characterised by polychaete communities and bivalves. There are Atlantic salt flats which fringe on the blanket bog, particularly in the lower reaches of the bay. Species growing here include sea thrift, sea arrowgrass, sea plantain, common salt marsh grass, Juncus gerardii, Juncus maritimus and turf fucoids.

The bay supports breeding terns of several varieties and black-headed gulls, including the red-breasted merganser and sand martin.

In popular culture
The 18th-century song Liam Ó Raghallaigh is based on the drowning of a young man on his wedding day in Sruwaddacon Bay when he and friends rowed across the bay to collect the priest for his wedding and their boat sank. The song, written in the first person as spoken by his bride and widow, Neilí Nic Siúrtáin, mourns the loss, and curses the craftsmen who made the boat with cheap wood; in translation, she sings: "Your eyes are with the eels, Your mouth is with the crabs, Your two bright, clear-bright hands Are under the sharp discipline of the salmon".

Archaeology
The archaeological survey carried out in 2008 for Royal Dutch Shell by the Archaeological Diving Company in Sruwaddacon Bay took some sample cores from the bay.  One of their cores close to Aghoose townland turned up hazelnut shells at a depth of 10.7 metres under the bay.  These have been held for analysis to be dated by the archaeological team concerned.

Corrib gas project

The latest plans of the controversial Corrib gas project are to run a high pressure, raw, unodourised natural gas pipeline up the middle of this bay. Shell  are planning to construct  a tunnel under the bay in order to receive planning approval from An Bord Pleanála. The local community  and representatives of Pobal Chill Chomáin and Shell to Sea have fought the project through the Courts, through Oral Hearings and through direct action campaigns for the last ten years as gas was first mooted to be flowing from here to Galway in 2002.

After going in for what I thought was a regular doctor's checkup, the results came in from my blood tests. My doctor let me know that I need to start eating better, exercising, and losing weight. He said if I don't make a change now I'd soon be starting treatment for type 2 diabetes.
I was 29 years old and afraid for my wife and kids.
Is this going to become a financial burden on my family? How much longer would I be around and able to see their faces?
Then I figured it was my parents' fault ya know.
I felt a little overwhelmed, but considering everything that was at stake, I was determined to get this under control.
I poured thousands of hours into cookie cutter exercise programs, health and fitness books, as well as online articles. After all of that, I realized how badly I needed support.
I started Feel Better Together because I wanted others to join me as we grow and work toward living a healthy and vital life filled with joy and new friendships. I remember when I desperately needed some encouragement and how badly I needed access to tools and support, so I decided to become that for others.
Since then I've become certified by the National Academy of Sports Medicine as a Certified Personal Trainer, and have plans to acquire additional specializations that would best serve my clients and community.
I've used my training and access to resources to build online fitness and nutrition programs so you can work with me one-on-one online to overcome your challenges once and for all.
If you like to take advantage of fitness math as I do then try out my fitness and nutrition calculators and get personal results from well-researched formulas, that teach you how body transformation really works.
As Feel Better Together continues to grow I invite more and more people to join in and develop skills and healthy habits that will benefit you and your loved ones for years to come.
You can always come here for information and motivation if you get stuck and need some help.

Q: Is there any way to lift content from IO to other container without run? According to the cats official document: https://typelevel.org/cats-effect/typeclasses/liftio.html, if we want lift something from IO to other container, you should implement LiftIO trait, but the example explicitly run unsafeRunXXX method to fetch out the effect, I'm wondering is it the only way for the transformation?

A: IO is suspending side-effects, and its type tells you what value you'll get if you run all computations (both side-effectful and pure), if there will be no error to throw in the end (they can be handled along the way).
As such, it is impossible to obtain the value without running the calculation. So, basically any useful translation from IO[A] to F[A]  would have to call some .unsafeXXX somewhere. The unsafe part doesn't mean, that you shouldn't use it - it means that you need to know what you are doing as the moment you run it, the result returned will be side-effecting, can fail and in general you give up on referential transparency.
That it why this it used in internally in IOApp (it uses it at the end of the world, where you want to have your results computed). You can also translate IO into another F without loosing referential transparency, if you know that this F:

*

*is lazy, just like IO,

*allows suspending side-effects, just like IO,

*handled errors, just like IO.

So basically, it is another implementation of the same concept - see: SyncIO, Coeval, Task, ZIO...
// example: Async can be used to translate IO into F
def IO2F[F[_]: Async]: IO ~> F = new (IO ~> F) {
  def apply[A](ioa: IO[A]): F[A] = Async[F].async(ioa.unsafeRunAsync)
}

You could also do things like IO[A] => Either[Throwable, A] or IO[A] => Option[A], or IO[A] => Future[A] but then you have to remember that each time you run such evaluation, you are starting side effects immediately.
Long story short: of you want to translate IO into something else, you have to use some .unsafeXXX somewhere and this is not bad, unsafe is just a reminder that you have to be careful, that's it.

Tattoo artists, hotel clerk among 5 killed, 2 injured in shooting spree
Here's what we know about the five people killed and two injured in Denver and Lakewood Monday night.
Author: KUSA Staff
Updated: 10:46 AM MST January 2, 2022
DENVER — Friends and family of the victims are struggling to deal with the loss after a shooting spree in Denver and Lakewood ended with five people dead and two others injured.
RELATED: Police ID suspect in shooting spree that killed 5, say he was 'on the radar' of law enforcement
Here's what we know about the victims:
Alicia Cardenas, the owner of Sol Tribe tattoo shop, was killed
Danny Scofield, "Dano Blair," who worked at Lucky 13 Tattoo & Piercing, was killed
Sarah Steck, who worked at Hyatt House, was killed
Alyssa Gunn-Maldonado, who worked at Sol Tribe, was killed
Michael Swinyard, 67, was killed inside his home near Cheesman Park
Jimmy Maldonado, who worked at Sol Tribe, was shot but is expected to survive, according to police
Lakewood Police Agent Ashley Ferris, who was shot before she shot the gunman, according to police
Donations to support all of the victims can be made through the Colorado Healing Fund.
Alicia Cardenas, 44
Cardenas was shot around 5 p.m. at Sol Tribe, the tattoo shop she owned on Broadway in Denver.
"It's tremendous. It's difficult to really express how many people's lives she touched. She was a very outgoing person, she accepted everybody, especially those on the fringes," her father Alfredo Cardenas said. "A real advocate for the homeless, for the LGBTQ community – everybody you know was connected with her someway or another."
Her father said he is concerned about her 12-year-old child, saying they are "going to need a lot of love and compassion."
A friend described her as a warrior and advocate for all.
"She was an amazing mother, tattoo artist and an accredited body piercer," Samantha Lindstrom said. "Alicia never minded words and was never afraid to tell you what she thought or felt, but she always came from a place of love. We go back a very long time and she was family. Alicia was a beautiful woman inside and out. A loving wife, stepmother and yogi. Such a warm, caring being."
Another friend who met her through the art community called her a light to everyone she met.
"She was devoted to spirit and to our ancestors to everyone who met her," Cal Duran said. "She just wanted to bring knowledge and light."
Alyssa Gunn-Maldonado, 35
Alyssa Gunn-Maldonado and her husband Jimmy Maldonado were both shot at Sol Tribe, the Broadway tattoo shop where they worked, Maldonado's family told 9NEWS. Gunn-Maldonado was killed in the shooting, while Maldonado was injured but is expected to survive.
George Blosser is one of Jimmy Maldonado's customers. He has known him for 20 years. Blosser said Alyssa completed Jimmy.
"I knew that he had found some happiness in a way that eluded him before," Blosser said. "For Jimmy it was finding a life partner that shared that space, that shared that spiritual outlook and suddenly he had someone that was like, 'let's do this journey together.'"

Jimmy Maldonado
Jimmy Maldonado was injured in the shooting at Sol Tribe. Maldonado's brother told 9NEWS Wednesday that he is starting to improve physically, but is absolutely heartbroken over losing his wife.

Michael Swinyard, 67
Swinyard was killed inside his condo at One Cheesman Place in Denver. The gunman talked his way into the building and shot Swinyard after breaking into his unit, according to the building manager.

Danny Scofield, 38
Danny Scofield, or "Dano Blair," was a tattoo artist who worked at Lucky 13 Tattoo & Piercing in Lakewood.
"I can tell you he was as close to me as a brother, not only a good friend," one of Scofield's friends told 9NEWS. "He was a gentle giant loved by all – no enemies. He was clean and sober – no drugs or alcohol. He's a loving father, a beloved son and brother."
"This random act of violence has got us all broken-hearted," Scofield's friend said. "He worked for Lucky 13 for about two years before moving to Seattle, but came back to Denver and worked at another studio for a while. He has been back at Lucky 13 for two and a half, almost three years now. We are all devastated."
Friends and clients of Scofield stopped by Lucky 13 Tuesday afternoon to drop off flowers and candles.
"Danny was a good person," longtime friend Annie Bagford said. "He was a tattoo artist. He was a father. He was a friend. He was an uncle. Danny was a good human."
Friends said Scofield went to Kavasutra Kava Bar, a sober bar, frequently between appointments. Friends told 9NEWS Scofield was at the bar Monday night and only left for Lucky 13 because he had an appointment. According to friends, he usually worked alone on Mondays.
"Very supportive friend and so much fun," Cody McLaughlin said. "Made people laugh and smile. He was a guiding light for sure."

Sarah Steck, 28
Steck was working at the front desk of the Hyatt House hotel in Belmar when she was shot multiple times, according to Lakewood police.
"She was a really positive, like exuberant person," Peter Bergman said.
Bergman is an associate professor of communication design at MSU Denver. He said he was Steck's academic advisor before she graduated last spring with a degree in communication design.
"She really put a lot of her skills and talents towards projects that were kind of elevating voices of people who are misfits or outside of cultural norms," Bergman said.
Steck created a portfolio of graphic design work that made a professor like Bergman proud. He described Steck as fashionable, creative and cool.
"She was, like, a lot more hip than the average person," Bergman said. "I've been messaging a lot with a lot of the students she graduated with who all just really describe her in super positive terms and are really heartbroken by this tragedy."
The hotel said they are temporarily suspending operations out of respect for Steck and to provide time for the hotel team to mourn.
"We are devastated by the sudden and tragic loss of our dear friend and colleague, Sarah Steck, a front desk host at Hyatt House Denver/Lakewood at Belmar," the hotel general manager said in a statement. "Colleagues and guests knew Sarah for her infectious laugh and her love of kittens, art and music -- especially Blink-182. But most of all, Sarah loved her boyfriend, family, and friends. We will miss her terribly, and our hearts go out to Sarah's family and friends as well as the families and friends of all the victims of the horrific act of violence that occurred on December 27, 2021."
Steck's boyfriend, Trevor Champeno, told 9NEWS on Thursday that she was a loving person.
"All you need to know is that Sarah was the most kind most caring. Most joyful person I've ever come in contact with my life. She loves music. Her favorites are Blink182, David Bowie, Johnny Cash and The Midnight," Champeno said. "She loved everything Disney. Her favorite was 'The Little Mermaid.' She could never hurt anyone and it makes no sense why anyone would harm her."

Ashley Ferris
Lakewood Police Agent Ashley Ferris encountered the suspect in the area of Vance Street and Alaska Drive in Belmar after he fatally shot five people and exchanged gunfire with police in two separate locations.
According to the Lakewood Police Department, Ferris ordered the suspect to drop his weapon as he approached her, but he ignored her commands and shot her in the abdomen. The wounded officer returned fire on the suspect.
"I can't emphasize enough the heroic actions of our Lakewood Police agent," police spokesperson John Romero said Tuesday. "In the face of being shot, in the face of danger, she was able to not only save others from this terrible tragedy but also neutralize the threat."
Ferris is a three-year veteran of the department, Romero said. She remains hospitalized as of Wednesday night.

This week's post will be short as I've had very little modeling time due to the unfortunate demise of my much-loved motorcycle and the search for a replacement. However there is good news; not only have I found another bike but the C-855B brass Additions have arrived and they look great.
The C-855B brass Additions are very similar to the C-855 set, although there are no windscreen wipers or sun shades. There are also less grab irons, but two larger end handrails have been added as well as the extra end handrail. These are the three parts on the left hand side.
For those that have pre-ordered your C-855B brass Additions, they have now been posted and should be with you very soon. I have several sets in stock and they can be ordered here. Alternatively you can contact me through the contact page.
As I said, time has been short, so I haven"t test fitted the C-855B body onto an extended chassis yet but I will have it all done for next week's post. The body's also going into the paint shop so there's a small chance I might have the whole set finished and ready to share with you then.

Open Question: Are the laws of nature fixed?
Most scientists take it for granted that the laws of nature were fixed at the moment of the Big Bang, and many assume that the fundamental physical constants were fixed as well. This assumption underlies many of the discussions about the cosmological anthropic principle and the debate between proponents of the universe and multiverse. However, in an evolving universe the regularities of nature may be more like habits than laws and depend on an inherent memory within the natural world. The philosopher CS Peirce suggested this idea in the early 20th century.
In his hypothesis of morphic resonance, Rupert Sheldrake suggests that memory works through a transfer of information between self-organising systems on the basis of similarity, with this resonance taking place from the past to the present. Each species has a kind of collective memory and on which each individual draws, and to which it contributes. This hypothesis is discussed in detail in Sheldrake's book A New Science of Life (Called Morphic Resonance in the US) and The Presence of the Past, his main theoretical book. A similar idea was proposed by a theoretical physicist Lee Smolin in his book Time Reborn. Lee Smolin calls his hypothesis the 'principle of precedence'.
Papers by Ephraim Fischbach, Professor of Physics at Purdue University, and Jere Jenkins, Director of Radiation Laboratories School of Nuclear Engineering at Purdue have revealed annual variations in nuclear decay rates (also see The strange case of solar flares and radioactive elements).
"What we are showing is that decay constants are apparently not fundamental constants of nature."
— Ephraim Fischbach, Purdue University

Go Back to Our Circle
Marsha Kennington
Marsha's career as a professional aerialist/acrobat began in 1977, touring throughout the U.S., Mexico and Canada with various circus' including Big John Strong, Kelly Miller, and Garden Bros. Other highlights of her professional performance career include appearances with the World Theatre Festival, the Hollywood Rose Bowl half-time shows and stints on The Johnny Carson Show. Film and television credits include technical and creative consultant and stunt double roles for director/producers Norman Jewison, Tony Bill and Steven King. This phase of her career spanned over a decade before permanently settling in Toronto where she collaborated with Harbourfront Centre in 1988 to create the Harbourfront Circus Camps, which continue today.
Additionally, in 1991, she co-founded Ontario's first Circus School, The Main Space School of Circus Arts offering a full menu of circus arts to children and adults. While maintaining the recreational programs offered by the school, she became drawn to the idea of using Circus Arts as a way of reaching Toronto's street youth. She collaborated with the Kites organization exploring ways to build self confidence and improve life skills of youth living on the fringes. This work proved highly successful and as a result Marsha took it a step further, creating workshops for abused women and flying trapeze workshops for the blind.
Fueled with the success of these projects, in 2001 Marsha teamed with Cirque du Monde, the Social Action and Responsibility department of Cirque du Soleil. There her interest in applied Social Circus strategies joined forces with other likeminded circus artists. The journey began in Quebec's Northern communities at the beginning of a collaboration with the Kativik Regional Government and Cirque du Soleil. The project continues today and has met intended goals throughout the years. Reaching further limits Marsha traveled the world for Cirque du Monde working with street youth in L.A. and the Bronx and to parts of impoverished Mongolia and South Africa.
Having had an ongoing working relationship with Rachel David, the founder of SoCirC (Social Circus Circle) for many years, helping to support and initiate the project and has worked several projects with the organization experiencing first hand the positive results achieved. It's an honour and a privilege to be a part of this great team of talented professionals.


Shivaji Bridge Railway Station is the closest railway station, at a distance of 11.24 km. It is located at a distance of 8.90 km from the closest airport, Indira Gandhi Intl Airport. The nearest bus stop, Delhi Darshan Bus Stand, is at a distance of 12.32 km. Bhandari Homoeopathy Stores pharmacy is situated at a distance of 10.70 km from the hotel. All the lovers of shopping can shop to their heart's content at Defence Colony Market, situated 11.07 km away. The walk from the hotel to Indian Overseas Bank ATM is about 10.75. Restaurants within a distance of 2 km count to about 451. For the party-lovers, there are around 2 nightclubs in the proximity of 5 km from Hotel Eternity, New Delhi.


An incredible percentage of young puppies display hip dysplasia when screened with an X-ray. That includes young pups that are not demonstrating symptoms; with no lameness or other symptoms of pain that would be visible.
Hip dysplasia is basically a "ball and socket" kind of condition. In short, the joint does not fit right or it "pops" out of line. A cat or a dog may be born with this condition; or, it may result from activity and stress. Veterinarians face several different scenarios here. This is a condition that larger breed dogs are prone to developing. However, this veterinarian was describing all young puppies he had studied.
The more fundamental statement is this. If young animals have this condition, it generally worsens. Even though they are not demonstrating symptoms this early in life as it progresses, pain and disability are inevitable.
Be proactive now. There is no reason to wait until your pet is in pain and suffering. As adults, many of us wish we had done more to care for our joints earlier in life. Most of us take vitamins and minerals as supplements and the smart consumer is using a liquid glucosamine of the highest quality.
We highly recommend Agility by Life's Abundance or NuVet Joint Plus. As this article indicates, the number of pets with hip dysplasia is very high even with no symptoms being displayed. There is no reason to wait until your pet is in pain and suffering. Be proactive now!

New Year, New Chef for Pensons
Posted by Amanda Collis
You are here: Home / New Year, New Chef for Pensons
Lee Westcott will be stepping down from his role as Head Chef of Pensons at the end of the year.
Having opened Pensons with Peta Darnley in January, Lee has been one of the driving forces behind the project. He has headed up the kitchen since the launch and the restaurant was awarded a Michelin Star in this year's guide. Lee will be returning to London from January, the kitchen will be run by new head chef, Chris Simpson.
Chris joins the team at Pensons after having worked with Nathan Outlaw for seven years in Cornwall as Head Chef at Restaurant Nathan Outlaw which had two Michelin stars. He then moved on to Gidleigh Park as Executive Head Chef, and was part of the team that won a Michelin Star there.
Peta Darnley said, 'We are very sad to see Lee go, but wish him all the best for the future. I'm personally so happy to have worked with him on this huge venture: turning a derelict, disused barn on our Netherwood Estate into a restaurant with a flourishing kitchen garden. Lee and I are incredibly proud of what we have accomplished together along with the hard work of the brilliant team. It has been a real joy.
We are very excited to welcoming Chris to the family, and are looking forward to building on the success of the last year."
Lee Wescott said: "It's been an absolute pleasure to be involved in this project right from the start; I have learnt a great deal from working so closely with the seasons and the produce here. I'm proud of what the team and I have achieved in this time and the recognition that we have received has been a true honour. I am, however, excited to get back to the city I fell in love with, and what the future holds. I know that Peta, Chris and the team will continue to have huge success and I wish them all the best for the next chapter at Pensons."
Chris Simpson said, "I'm honoured and delighted to be joining Pensons, with its bountiful surroundings, excellent local suppliers and fantastic team. I'm such a fan of what Lee, Peta and the team have achieved, and I can't wait to get stuck in."
Chris will begin at Pensons from January 2020. Joining him will be new Restaurant General Manager, Jim Conway, who spent the last four years as Restaurant Manager at The Raby Hunt in Summerhouse, Darlington, leading the restaurant from 1 Michelin star to 2 Michelin stars in 2016.
