I recently watched the Christohper Hicthens/Tony Blair debate on whether religion is a force for good in the world. To paraphrase Mr. Hitchens; "You can expect good people do good things, and bad people do bad things. To get a good person to do a bad thing you need religion." The idea being that one can bypass ordinary human decency and morality by stating that an act is divinely warranted.
The parallels with statism, positive law, and the War on Drugs, are evident to a front line observer of the Texas criminal justice system. The state may not claim divine authority, but it does share religion's ability to get good people to do horrible things.
Which brings me to our appellate case of the day- Hereford vs. State.

All Roads Lead to Shutter: An Interview with Joe Keatinge
Joe Keatinge's star might still be rising, but his place in the industry was secured after the launch of his acclaimed run on Glory in 2012. Since then, books like Hell Yeah, DC Comics Presents, Morbius: The Living Vampire, and Marvel Knights: Hulk have (relative merits aside) served as stepping stones to Keatinge and artist Leila del Duca's newest creator-owned series, Shutter.
Joe kindly took some time to chat with me about life, comics, and his new book. There was also some wine and a sandwich, which have been edited for your reading pleasure.
LM: So Joe, you've been in the industry for quite awhile now, doing things like color flats and editing before settling into writing. How has the ride been for you so far?
JK: I've always wanted to write comics. The fact that I've somehow been able to do this is weird – and good – and I'm thankful for it. There's ups and downs, but at the end of the day I sit in an office in my favorite city on earth and I write comics. I kind of lucked out. And now I'm working with Image and Marvel, and they've both been pretty great. I'm liking it, man. Comics is a good gig.
LM: I feel like people often point to you as a fan turned creator. Would you agree with that, or is this something you've always wanted to do and pursued from early on?
JK: Absolutely! I don't remember a time in my life when comics didn't exist. I certainly have other interests, but comics is the oldest one I have. I have to guess that comics for me started with inserts into toys, like Transformers and GI JOE.
I tell this story a lot, so I'll be brief – but I remember reading Spawn #10, which was a weird comic… the Dave Sim issue… and I didn't get it. It was about creator owned comics and the history of comics, and it didn't make any sense to me. So I read it over and over again, and I realized people actually make these comics, and that was something I could do – I could make comics. Both of my parents are writers, and I'm a big reader, so I guess writing was what I naturally leaned into – plus I can't draw.
Over many years I was convinced it wouldn't happen for me, but then I decided to really pursue it. I was going to college at the time to become an English professor and I hated it. So my then-girlfriend asked what I really wanted to do and I said "comics." It's always been comics, but you know that just doesn't happen. So when my dad encouraged me to go to San Fran and try out comics for a year, I did that.
(Soon)… A friend of mine was drawing backups for Savage Dragon and their color flatter quit, so they asked me if I knew how to use Photoshop. I did not – but I was like "Sure, I'll figure it out." So that got me to know people like Erik Larsen, and then because of that friendship I would hang out at conventions and stuff. "Breaking into comics" is all bullshit. My long, convoluted way continues…
So I volunteered to run an Image booth at Wizard World 2004, and after that a friend didn't want to run his booth, which actually belonged to Robert Kirkman. I ran that booth, and then Larsen came up to me and offered me a job. It was a huge opportunity for me, but eventually (years later) it became clear that it was time for me to move on. So I did, and basically failed for a year. By then I was putting together Hell Yeah, and that book got noticed by Rob Liefeld, so I was asked to pitch on Glory, which has launched everything for me. I've got this Adventures of Superman thing coming out (3/10/14 digital release) and that's directly from Glory, and now the next stage is Shutter. I feel that everything has been leading to Shutter, you know?
LM: How many titles are you currently writing?
JK: That's hard to quantify, because there are lots of things in different stages. In April I have nine books coming out. Shutter I'm actively scripting, I'm pitching on a few things, working on a few unannounced things, revisions on Age of Ultron, etc. I guess I'd say I'm always working on four books with a fifth slot open for short stories or random fun shit. The Vertigo Quarterly: CMYK (Cyan) that I'm working on with Ken Garing, for example. Stuff like that.
LM: You've just finished your Hulk run. Do you have a favorite Hulk book?
JK: I remember my dad took me to Superior Comics in Santa Monica, which is now long gone. He dropped me off and I looked around forever, and they had a comic I had never read before called Fantastic Four. On the cover was Spider-Man, Ghost Rider, Wolverine, and Hulk, and it was drawn by Art Adams and written by Walt Simonson. The whole conceit was, according to my eight-year old brain, that the Fantastic Four are fucking dead and now these guys have taken over the book. That's all I know. So I had this one issue that I thought was the best issue I'd ever read in my life, and I assumed I would go back and I could get the next book. But I went back and the Fan Four are alive again, and it's drawn by someone else. But it's still one of my favorite issues, I think it's amazing. That shit blew my mind.
LM: What else are you putting time into these days?
JK: I mean Shutter is work, but it's something I really enjoy doing. I do draw for myself. I read a ton and watch a ton of movies. I've been doing these iPhone game things called Survivor Z, which came out at San Diego Comic Con last year and I'll probably do some more for those guys. All sorts of shit. There's nothing that supersedes comics for me, though. Where comics are at now, you can do anything you want! I don't think Shutter could have existed three years ago.
LM: Give us the rundown on Shutter. What can readers expect from this book?
JK: SHUTTER is an ongoing series mixing up everything Leila and I love about… well, basically everything — Planet Earth. International travel. Intergalactic travel. Science fiction. Science fact. Giant monsters. Robot cats. Real life explorers. Fake life explorers. The multiverse. Lions in pinstriped suits carrying giant guns. Ninja ghosts. A whole lot more. All told from the perspective of Kate Kristopher, who used to be the world's most famous explorer before she quit for reasons no one else understands, until a family secret draws her back into the life she fought hard to leave behind.
LM: Where did the idea for the series come from?
JK: I've been doing a lot with the subject of family, and Shutter is partly that. It's really the thing that my life has been leading to – being fascinated by family and the human experience. I loved Tintin growing up, Corto Maltese as an adult, just exploring this world and how amazing it is that we exist at all – that's just fascinating. It's just one of those things. Hell Yeah was me writing a comic about why I got into comics and what I loved about comics growing up – Shutter is where I want to go in comics, in life, what's going on next.
There's all sorts of shit it comes from – figuring out your place in the world and in life. I research this book every day via National Geographic or Atlas Obscura or whatever. I think to myself "I want to write about this part of the world now because it's something I didn't know existed and it sounds like it's out of a Jack Kirby comic!" I like writing about ninjas – there are ninja ghosts in there. And part of the book is Leila – she can draw anything – and she pushed me to challenge her in terms of visuals.
The first go-round of Shutter was super grounded, because I wanted to write my own Corto book basically, but then I met Leila… This book had never worked before, it was half done. The other half was her. If we hadn't met I don't think this book would have happened. There's nothing in this book we can't do. There's no one at Image saying "don't do this." We say this is a mature readers book because we want someone to be able to curse when they get bad news. I just wanted a place where I could tell a story with my collaborators in the settings we find interesting, and hopefully publish. That's kind of it.
This is the point where I had wanted to ask Joe about writing women characters, since he does them so well, but he seemed to sense where I was headed and had this to say:
JK: I've become really fascinated with interviews and the art of the interview. Playboy started doing these things where they compiled their interviews on the Kindle for nothing, and there's a quote from Ingmar Bergman that I really like, which is from 1964. Fifty fucking years ago! Here it is:
"You're going to ask how it is I understand women so well. Women used to interest me as subjects because they were so ridiculously treated and shown in movies. I simply showed them as they actually are–or at least closer to what they are than the silly representations of them in the movies of the Thirties and Forties. Any reasonably realistic treatment looked great by comparison with what was being done. In the past few years, however, I have begun to realize that women are essentially the same as men, that they both have the same problems. I don't think of there being women's problems or women's stories any more than I do of there being men's problems or men's stories. They are all human problems. It's people who interest me now."
I remember when I was doing a lot of Glory press everyone was like, "What's the deal with writing women?" I just writing human beings, you know? Half the world's population. I don't read Pretty Deadly or Velvet because they star women, I read them because they're awesome books. That's it. I find it disturbing that it's 2014 and there is still this issue with writing women – that we're still having this conversation.
I don't want to get too personal, but it's been an interesting year. I've had a couple people pass away on me, and it's really changed my view on some things/reaffirm others. You've just gotta do your thing. We're all gonna die. We've gotta create the things we want to create and put them out there. I just want to put the things out there that reflect the world that I want to see.
LM: You've set two books in France, and you seem to have a big affinity for the country and culture itself. Why is that, and can we expect to see any in Shutter?
JK: There's a lot going on there. Every superhero book is in New York! Like you can't have a superhero book in another goddamn city?! I went to France for the first time in 2010 and it changed my life. It was a culture I really enjoyed, a history I find fascinating. I got to see human creation and engineering from this zero point. Everything that I believe comes out of the notion of creation, not destruction. Infringing upon the life and liberty of someone else is where the bad shit comes from. So yeah, it's just a culture I'm into. Glory obviously took place in France, the Normandy region seemed like a good place to put it. In the Hulk, my point was to set this really American idea in a completely different setting and see where it went from there. With Shutter, it's about setting things on a larger international scale. I think humanity is amazing, so it'll be a very international book.
LM: I wanted to ask "SUP WIDDAT?" in regards to some of your titles that have been sort-of-announced, but not released yet. First off, Null/Void.
JK: This is a book James Harvey and I have been talking about doing for awhile. I originally saw his stuff on Robot 6, and I was like HOLY FUCKING SHIT. So we met up and got along really well, we tweeted about it, but the more I talked to him about it, the more clear it was that it was HIS story, and I was unsure of what I could contribute. So I'm still helping him with little things, but otherwise he's writing and drawing it. It's just one of those things that we talked about and it became something else. What I am here to do now is just be his cheerleader. I look at his stuff and I think he's going to be one of those guys that we talk about for a really long time and who could have a substantial impact. I think the last person I thought that about was Brandon Graham. I think James is the next person in line. Fiona Staples and Emma Rios too, all have that potential.
LM: What about Intergalactic?
JK: That's happening through Image, though it was originally announced as Monkey Brain. As Ken and I put together the series, it became clear that the story wasn't matching up with the digital format. So it's happening, but we're not talking about it till we're done. The thing I've learned about talking about stuff too early or things being late is this – shut up until you've got three issues in the can, and don't publish it until you've got about five or six. And that's what we've been doing on Shutter. I read comics and I think it's shitty when it takes a year for the next comic to come out, but you know, lessons learned.
LM: HELL YEAH?
JK: The only thing I feel really bad about is that we have a pretty substantial fan base and they've been awesome to us, and that book helped launch everything. We're gonna finish it. We're stocking up issues and we're going to release them, like four more issues and the story is done. We might do some minis or one-shots too, but that's the far flung future.
LM: Lastly, Brutal.
JK: Ask Frank Cho. When he's ready to do it, I'm ready to finish writing it. I think we just have to shut up till it's ready to go. It's my hard and fast rule now. None of these were even officially solicited.
LM: There's been a lot of discussion over Eric Stephenson's Image speech as to whether it was on point or not. What was your take on it?
JK: I don't think his point was that Star Wars comics are invalid, or shouldn't exist. His point was that in the end, licensed comics serve the brand, not the medium. Eric is one of the smartest guys in comics; he realizes that lots of people get into comics through licensed stuff. Dark Horse has had Star Wars for 20 years, 20 YEARS, and because they want to better serve the brand, it's moving to Marvel. His point was that if you're trying to promote the medium of comics in the long term, licensing is maybe not the best way to do it, because in the end it's a temporary thing that serves the brand, not the medium. The best way to promote the medium is new ideas.
LM: Final question! If you could be any character you've ever written, who would you be and why?
JK: I've done a bunch of horrible shit to my characters, so I'm not sure I'd want to be any of them? I guess Kate Kristopher. That's whose head I'm in the most. But the cheesy answer I feel like is that each character represents something else, but the world that Kate resides in is the world Leila and I have built, and I also credit (colorist) Owen Gieni as well. There's no restrictions, she's going all over the world, I wanna go all over the world. So yeah, Kate Kristopher.
Shutter is slated for release on April 9th from Image Comics.

Dr. Shelby Neal breaks down the cost effectiveness of genetic testing.
This is Infertility
There is nothing more fundamental to life than the urge to continue it. But while it may be the most natural thing in the world, childbirth is far from the easiest and no two fertility journeys are the same. For that reason, we are breaking from the typical podcast form. Each episode is hosted by a different voice who brings their own unique point of view to the complex and ever-changing world of infertility. Our hosts are licensed clinical social workers, patient care advocates, clinical psychiatrists, reproductive endocrinologists, real fertility patients, and others who are, in one way or another, experts in the world of fertility. We fuse narrative storytelling with experience and science to give you a new perspective on what it's really like to go through this journey.
Episode 45: Genetic Testing, is it Cost Effective?
The world of fertility is filled with acronyms – ART, IVF, IUI, ICSI, PICSI, SET, FET, HCG, LH, AMH, FSH, OMG. But there is one acronym in particular that gets questioned often, PGT-A. It stands for pre-implantation genetic testing for aneuploidy and it can make a real difference. Everyone who decides to go forward with IVF has to make a decision on whether or not to go forward with PGT-A. The fact is, many people just aren't sure if it would be worth the extra cost. In this episode we hear from Dr. Shelby Neal who, along with the team at RMA of New Jersey, performed a study to answer one of the key questions most patients have when facing IVF, "When is it cost effective to use pre-implantation genetic testing for aneuploidy?" and "Why should we do PGT-A?" Today's host is Claire O'Neill, Patient Care Advocate (PCA) at Progyny.
Guests include: Dr. Shelby Neal from RMA of NJ
For more information, visit Progyny's Podcast page and RMA of NJ.
Claire O'Neill, Patient Care Advocate at Progyny and certified embryology and andrology lab scientist.
Claire has spent two and a half years in a high-volume fertility clinic lab In NYC creating embryos using the method of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and have generated thousands of embryos during that time for patients struggling with infertility based on a range of different diagnoses. She has also worked on clinical research under the clinic's Director of Andrology and Assisted Fertilization, primarily focusing on male infertility and has presented her research in international conferences in Reproductive Medicine in the United States and Europe. She has co-authored and first-authored several scientific papers published in peer reviewed journals on topics such as genetic testing of embryos, embryo development and the clinical outcomes associated, ICSI, and male fertility testing. With Claire's clinical experience, she is now at Progyny working with patients directly. She counsels them on how best to utilize their benefits and guides them through their fertility journey.
Dr. Shelby Neal, third year Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility fellow with RMA in Basking Ridge, New Jersey.
A graduate of the University of North Carolina School of Medicine, Dr. Neal went onto complete her OB/GYN residency at The Medical University of South Carolina. During her time at RMA, Dr. Neal has helped bring healthy babies to hopeful parents and conducted important research on embryo biopsy, the cost-benefit of embryo genetic testing, the microbiome and the benefit of 3D ultrasound in predicting IVF outcomes. Beginning August 2019, Dr. Neal will begin work as an Assistant Professor in the REI division at Wake Forest University, an academic medical center in Winston-Salem, NC, and see patients at the Center for Fertility, Endocrine and Menopause.

Our Litigators
Our team of government enforcement attorneys at Stumphauzer Kolaya Nadler & Sloman is uniquely situated to defend clients facing investigations and enforcement actions by federal and state authorities. In government-facing matters, it is critical to understand the government's priorities, investigative methods, and internal deliberative processes. To that end, experience working inside the government is invaluable. We always staff civil and criminal government enforcement matters with at least one former federal prosecutor who understands the dynamics of government decision-making firsthand. As a result, we are often able to resolve government regulatory enforcement matters discreetly, through negotiation with the government before a formal action is filed, protecting our clients' privacy and reputation.
Our experience is your greatest asset.
We understand that civil enforcement proceedings can have a devastating effect on our clients' professional and personal lives. Regulators have authority to impose fines, exclude clients from government programs, and restrict a client's ability to work in regulated industries. Our attorneys have extensive experience dealing with government authorities and regulatory bodies in the securities, civil fraud, and health care fields, including the United States Department of Justice (DOJ), the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (HHS-OIG), the Medicare Fraud Control Units (MFCUs), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), , and the State of Florida Office of Financial Regulation (OFR).
We know the healthcare industry.
We have defended a broad range of health care providers including hospitals, diagnostic laboratories, pharmacies, physician groups, Managements Service Organizations, and skilled nursing facilities against "bet-the-company" government enforcement actions. We understand that government investigations can have devastating collateral consequences for health care providers, and therefore craft defense strategies that minimizes business disruption and reputational harm, all with a goal of resolving the government's concerns without a formal lawsuit.
Ryan Stumphauzer served as the Deputy Chief of the Health Care Fraud Unit at the United States Attorney's Office in the Southern District of Florida, the nation's most active enforcement district. In that capacity, Mr. Stumphauzer dealt extensively with CMS, HHS-OIG, MFCU, and Program Integrity Contractors. This experience gives our firm unique insight to guide clients over the many hurdles involved in healthcare enforcement actions, including on-site inspections, program integrity audits and reviews, overpayment determinations and appeals, prepayment reviews, and program exclusion and revocation matters.
Securities Litigation and Enforcement Proceedings – Our experienced, multi-disciplinary team covers all your litigation needs.
Our securities law litigators handle securities disputes throughout the country, with responsibilities that range from responding to regulatory inquiries and pre-complaint investigations to litigating claims of securities fraud. We routinely defend underwriters, financial advisors, and corporations, including their officers and directors, against class action litigation, shareholder derivative actions, actions arising out of mergers and acquisitions, suits arising out of failed securities offerings and other complex matters involving the Securities Act, proxy suits, appraisal actions, the Exchange Act, and the Investment Company Act of 1940. We also represent registered broker-dealers and other professionals in regulatory proceedings and arbitrations involving the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) with an eye towards limiting our clients' financial, reputational, and licensing exposure.
Securities litigation often is accompanied by investigations and enforcement proceedings brought by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), and other government agencies, as well as self-regulatory proceedings by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and the FINRA or self-regulatory organizations. When facing a parallel investigation or proceeding, our clients – public companies, financial services firms, audit firms and their senior management, partners and employees, investment advisers, broker-dealers and other market professionals – can count on our team of former federal prosecutors and white-collar lawyers to deftly guide and represent them through internal investigations, enforcement proceedings, government agency inquiries, congressional inquiries, grand jury proceedings, and criminal trials.
Our white-collar lawyers have extensive experience defending corporate executives, licensed professionals and corporate entities under investigation by regulatory bodies, including the SEC, DOJ, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Florida Department of Financial Regulation and other state and federal security regulatory commissions.
Our firm has built a solid reputation for skillfully defending clients in high-profile, high-stakes securities and investment fraud cases. We are known for our keen ability to work with regulators to resolve our clients' cases swiftly and effectively.
We represent clients in a diverse range of civil and criminal securities and investment fraud cases, including allegations of:
SEC/Grand Jury Subpoena Response
Penny Stock Fraud
Market Manipulation
Unregistered Investment Contracts
Offering Fraud
Unauthorized Trading
Account Churning
Unsuitability of Investment Advice
Our firm is also regularly retained by public company boards, audit committees and special committees in internal investigations in response to allegations of accounting irregularities, foreign payment issues and other misconduct.
A Comprehensive Defense Strategy
Regulatory enforcement proceedings are often coupled with parallel criminal investigations, which are independently investigated and prosecuted by state or federal authorities. Our firm has the ability to develop and execute a comprehensive regulatory defense strategy, which includes a well-defined plan to mitigate ongoing or potential criminal prosecution.
Receiverships and Special Master Appointments
Litigation in federal courts can become unwieldy and voluminous. Under these circumstances, judges can invoke Rule 53 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure or equivalent state rules to appoint private attorneys as "special masters" to oversee certain aspects of the litigation. Our lawyers have experience handling these unique engagements. For example, Ryan Stumphauzer was appointed to serve as Special Master overseeing discovery and other matters in the multibillion-dollar Takata Airbag Products Liability Multidistrict Litigation, MDL No. 2599, in the United Stated District Court for the Southern District of Florida.
In addition, federal and state courts, upon request by the Securities Exchange Commission, Federal Trade Commission (FTC), United States Department of Justice and other interested parties, also appoint private attorneys to administer entities subject to fraud investigations. These "receivers" manage the business affairs, funds, and property of entities when the entity's owners are subject to fraud allegations. Our attorneys have served as court-appointed receivers in matters involving fraud-based claims against large financial institutions and international companies.
Our lawyers also represent financial institutions, secured and unsecured individual creditors, business debtors in financial reorganizations, lenders, owners, claimants and other interested parties in various types of receivership proceedings.

I am so happy...I finally finished a quilt......and I am binding another, which means 2 quilts will be done!!!!

I have been sooo busy this month. I am looking forward to slowing down with family for the next few weeks. I have great photo's of all the stuff I have been doing this last month.
I went to a Bottle Angel class with Karen Valentine. We started with vintage glass bottles. The class was so much fun. Here are the two bottles I made.
All the angels made in the class by the other students!! Aren't they so cute!!!
Then I headed over to the Frenzy Stamper and took a journal class with Kelly Kilmer. I really enjoyed meeting Kelly and learning from her.
From there I went to The Big Heap with Karen Valentine to look for some treasures!! Which I did!!
Then I went across town to meet Samie Kira. I went with Emily Lagore from Canada. We had a wonderful time arting in a coffee shop. We were there for 4 hours!!!
....and then I went to a book binding class with my BFF Karen Valentine at the Occasional Artist. The book I made is above!! It is 3 x 6. It will fit perfectly in my purse for note taking!!
I also saw the Breaking Dawn movie twice now!!!! I am sure I will have to go again :):):) I so totally love this movie series.
...and on a personal note....I have lost 57 pounds...and I now fit into a pair of 14 jeans!!!!!!
Thanks for following my Art journey.
I got this vintage photo album from Etsy!! I wanted to gut it and turn it into a new art journal!!
Here are the old pages from inside the album!
I took the old pages out, and made a new set of papers to put inside the covers. Here are the pages ready for sewing.
I took a class called Full Tilt Boogie. Here is the binding method I learned in that class. The black strips is a velvet ribbon.
A looksy inside the new journal!!
I used nice papers for the outside of each signature, as this binding method is an exposed binding!! I love the way it turned out!! I have 3 more vintage albums I will turn into journals one day!!
Well, better late than never!!! I have been so busy the last several weeks...I just have not had time to write my quiltie trade show and tell. The trade was just so fun again! So here are all the quilties ...I seem to have lost my list of who did what...so I am going to try and remember the best I can.
Okay..I am a very bad trade host!!!! I have lost my list of who did what...and I tried as best as I could to do it from memory...so I may have messed up a few names..... please have mercy Girls!!

This quilt went all the way to the ceiling and to the floor. Amazing!! I have no idea how she even quilted it!?!
I love animals!! I was very happy to see so many portraits of animals on quilts!!
This was one of my favorite quilts!!! Hand appliqued and machine quilted!! Stunning!!
And finally we have the grand prize winner!! Best of Show!! There was several thousands of crystals on it as well!!
Now on to the shopping!! There were 1000 booths to shop at!! It took 3 shots for me to get it all. When you see these pictures you will understand why my feet were killing me!!!

Isn't it just pretty!! I can't wait to make something with all this lovely ribbon!!
Last photo!! I had a great time at the show!! Even though my feet are just killing me right now!!! It is a show worth going to at least once in your life time!! I do have one recommendation for you... DONT GO ALONE!!! Grab your best pals and go together!! I'm sure it would have been a lot more fun for me to walk the show with a friend and share the experience with someone who loves quilting as much as I do!!!
Me and my feet are VERY glad to be HOME!!!!

I wasn't always this supportive of locals. I guess I was in the sense that I have always shopped local and gone to local events, but putting myself out there to offer my time and energy...? No.
About a year ago, something shifted in my heart. I wasn't looking to get out of things what I put into them. Not that I was ever that way, but actually serving? Giving my free time? Volunteering? Thinking of others who worked hard and needed the extra support became a focus for me. I just wanted to #give. My life improved because of it and I didn't even expect that.
I am not encouraging others to give because it will improve your life. That's just what happens naturally. I am, however, saying what do you have to lose? If you can shop anywhere, why not support your local business owner or artist instead? They appreciate it more than any chain will. They cherish the relationships between their customers and themselves. They also usually have much better food, products and services, unique in their craftsmanship, and they have heart. Local restaurants like Churchill's, Le Papagayo, La Paloma and Beach Break Cafe have been in business as long as they have for a reason. Community.
Let's just create some balance. Shall we? Our local businesses will thank us for it.

All Change At Stratford: Moyes Must Mix Things Up To Banish Burnley Bogey
The visit of a no-nonsense Burnley to the London Stadium presents West Ham with a different set of problems to the last two games. What change will David Moyes make to rise to the challenge.
With four points earned from the last two games, the Hammers are running ahead of the re-start expectations of many battle-hardened supporters. The next three fixtures, starting with today's claret derby with Burnley, were the ones seen to be the passport to Premier League survival. A return of five points or more from those games should be enough to avoid a final day relegation play-off reckoning with remaining claret club member, Aston Villa.
The win over Chelsea and a point against the Toons has helped us to breathe more easily, but nothing should yet be taken for granted. There might be an effective five-point cushion (if you take goal difference into account) over close rivals, Villa and Bournemouth, but there is still plenty to play for.
After a cautious first half display at St James' Park, despite the early goal, there was a sense of disappointment at the failure to come away with all three points. West Ham looked comfortably in control after half-time, and yet allowed Newcastle to equalise with their only meaningful attack of the second period. Collective defensive failures, lapses in concentration and vulnerability down our left side continue to cost dear. It is now fourteen matches since the Hammers last kept a clean sheet – on New Year's Day against Bournemouth – and the points lost from winning positions continue to mount.
While West Ham can be encouraged by their last two performances recent encounters with Burnley have not often ended well. As far as kettles of fish are concerned, this is a very different one to those previous two games. Burnley are a well organised, hard working and physical outfit. They will defend in numbers and will not be susceptible to the rapid breaks that benefited West Ham against Chelsea and Newcastle. The guile and finesse required to break down organised defences and team's prepared to intimidate are not historic West Ham strong points. It might be tempting to select an unchanged team, but today's challenge requires a very different approach.
At the back, there are few obvious options available to plug the alarming gaps in what is the fourth worst defence in the division. Pushing Declan Rice back weakens the midfield more that it strengthens the defence, and the return or either Fabian Balbuena or Arthur Masuaku adds no added confidence that things would be better. Although central midfield has looked defensively more solid since the recruitment of Tomas Soucek, the flanks remain a weak spot – particularly down the left hand side. Jarrod Bowen has done a great job of tracking back on the right and a similar level of support is badly needed on the left. That isn't going to be provided by Manuel Lanzini but can anyone else do better – Andriy Yarmolenko, Pablo Fornals or Masuaku?
Further forward, it is doubtful that Sebastien Haller is ready to return, and so line-leading responsibilities once again fall to the broad shoulders of Michail Antonio. Antonio has performed admirably in this role recently, but I do fear burn-out or injury, especially given Moyes strange reluctance to deploy all his full substitution entitlement.
As for unpicking defences, the squad is short on creativity – it lacks anyone likely to come up with the unpredictable. Jack Wilshere is arguably the most able to do so, but has been been given insufficient pitch time to single him out as a starter.
I have a sneaking suspicion that Moyes plan is to bring back Mark Noble, as partner to Rice in defensive midfield, and push Soucek further forward to offer a greater aerial presence – a tactic that suited and worked for him in his Everton days. That would still leave a problem wide on the left of midfield. Yarmolenko has earned a start but with both him and Bowen preferring to play on the right, will one be able to effectively switch flanks? Of the two, switching Bowen would be the sensible choice, but it would require Yarmo to up his tracking back efforts in support of Ryan Fredericks. Alternatively, Moyes may opt for Masuaku in a wide midfield role as he has done in the past, but I don't think he will go for this. Whichever way the team selection pans out, I sense it will be bench time once again for Fornals and Lanzini.
Burnley have enjoyed a decent season once again although are likely to miss out on Europa League qualification. Manager Sean Dyche has seen his stock rise in recent years and he now sits atop the rankings of plucky British managers, despite strong competition from newcomer Chris Wilder. The fall from grace of long-time leader and former golden boy, Eddie Howe, illustrates the conundrum facing managers at those clubs punching above their weight – when is the right time to jump ship out before the inevitable relegation and damaged reputation occurs
Dyche is, to date, undefeated in his managerial confrontations with Moyes (three wins and two draws) although their competitive relationship goes back to playing days in the mid 1990's, slugging it out in League 2 in the colours of Chesterfield and Preston respectively.
The Clarets are experiencing something of an injury crisis at the moment and will be without influential captain, Ben Mee as well as midfielder Jack Cork and chief bully, Ashley Barnes. Worryingly, Barnes strike partner Chris Woods, who has scored in each of his five outings for Burnley against West Ham, is back from injury and likely to start. Dwight McNeil is another danger and been tormentor-in-chief in recent games against the Hammers.
Matchday officials today are Michael Oliver on the pitch and Kevin Friend on VAR. There was nothing contentious from the officials at Newcastle on Sunday and will be hoping for more of the same today.
Both Lawro and Charlie Nicholas have this down as a Hammer's win at 2-0 and 2-1 respectively. Their rationale being West Ham's greater need and Burnley's growing injury problems. The biggest barriers I see to a West Ham win are being able to break down the visitors resolute and determined defence – not for nothing is Nick Pope in the running for the Golden Glove award – and getting suckered by the visitors big guns on a set piece. Still as a fan of claret, I want my glass to be, at least, half-full and will go for a welcome 3-1 home win. This is a game that usually has goals in it.

Bowen's tackling back has, a you write, been excellent. The side he doesn't play on will be weaker. I fear we'll concede because of this. But Soucek has been the game changer. More goals coming from him, I feel, at set pieces. You were spot on last time last time. 3-1 it is 😉
On past experience I am the world's worst tipster. The chances of being right twice in a row are very slim. Agree about Soucek. Top player and making a huge difference

2014 Bowman Football has some of the first rookie cards of the season. Sticking with the Bowman tradition, it's the young players that are the focus of the release. Hobby boxes deliver a total of four Bowman Chrome Rookie Autographs as well as one memorabilia card featuring a veteran.
2014 Bowman Football has different designs for rookies and veterans but both have tons of parallels. On top of that, there are Rainbow Foil and Paper base cards (think of it as being similar to Bowman and Bowman Chrome cards coming in the same packs). Rainbow Foil base cards for both have Silver Ice, Blue, Gold, Orange, Orange Ice, Printing Plates and Gridiron Ice (1/1) parallels. Rookies also have one-of-one Green parallels.
The more basic Paper base cards take a similar approach with different designs for first-year players and veterans. These cards come with black borders. Each has Blue, Gold, Orange, Red and Green parallels. On top of that, rookies come with Silver (1/1) versions as well.
For many, the main draw of 2014 Bowman Football is the early signatures. Bowman Chrome Rookie Autographs are all signed on-card and done on Refractor stock. With upwards of 80 signers, the checklist is vast.
And what would Bowman Chrome be without parallels? Rookie autographs have seven levels of Refractor parallels: Blue(#/99), Gold (#/75), Orange (#/50), Red (#/25), X-Fractor (#/10), Prism (#/5) and Superfractor (1/1). In addition to all those are Printing Plates. Parallels numbered to 50 or less can only be found in hobby packs.
These aren't the only autographs in the set. Under Armour All-America Game Autographs were made, printed and signed at the 2011 event. Now that players are turning pro, they're headed to packs. They're similar to the AFLAC and Under Armour cards found in Bowman Baseball products. These are inserted on top of the guaranteed four Bowman Chrome autographs.
Bowman Autographs (#/25) are redemptions for cards signed by players who attend the 2014 NFLPA Rookie Premiere. Done on Refractor stock, the final cards will have the 2014 Bowman Football design, a photo taken at the event and an on-card signature.
Relic Cards use jersey pieces worn by veterans. Numbered parallels include Blue, Gold, Orange, Red (1/1) and Printing Plates.
Bowman Mini cards are done to look like 1950 Bowman Football. Inserted one per hobby pack, the set features more than 100 rookies. Collectors can also find randomly inserted autographed versions that are hard signed. Red Ink parallels are numbered to 5.
Landing three per hobby box, Bowman Die-Cut cards highlight top veterans with a flashy design. Parallels include Blue (#/99) and Red (1/1).
2014 BOWMAN CHROME DAMIEN WILLIAMS RC AUTO SP ROOKIE AUTOGRAPH!RefractorW Bonus!
75 cards. Inserted 1:41 packs.
Extra hit. Inserted 1:246 packs.
Good: On-card autographs, lots of low-numbered parallels, 25 cards per hobby pack.
Bad: Lack of uniforms for rookies, lack of team logos on autographs, between the paper and the foil there are too many parallels.
The Bottom Line: The new football card season is here, but a lot of 2014 Bowman Football looks like the unlicensed sets from other companies put out before the draft. While it's nice to see all of the on-card autographs from top players this early, the lack of uniforms on the rookies took away a lot of the personality for me. On top of that, the multiple levels of foil and paper cards, each with their own levels of parallels, left me with a feeling of redundancy.
The first thing that stands out with 2014 Bowman is how the rookies are shown in generic uniforms. In turn, the players themselves don't carry a lot of personality or individuality. For me, it's a turnoff for the product as a whole, especially since the rookies are the major focus.
Even worse in this regard are the 1950 Bowman Minis. Not only do you get generic shots, but the design is one that doesn't have names on the front. The end result is comparable to the amount of personality found in a picture frame on the shelf at Walmart.
That being said, the veterans look very solid. The design elements look good and the images are bright and crisp. Sticking with that are the die-cut inserts. I wish that the set was either held back until later in the season or even pushed back a few weeks to allow for shots with rookie uniforms.
Player-wise, 2014 Bowman Football is strong. The autograph checklist covers the major players and then some. Given how many autographs are per hobby box, this isn't the worst as many of the players probably won't be in too many sets.
What confuses me is the structure. This starts with putting the veterans and rookies in separate 110-card sets. The picky set builder in me wants the same players but a single 220-card checklist.
More troubling is the sheer number of parallels. Like Bowman Baseball, it's daunting. Separating paper and foil is on par with Bowman and Bowman Chrome going together, although I'm not sure why foil couldn't be Chrome. I would have preferred if foil was merely a basic parallel and that it didn't have all of its own parallels.
The Bowman name and on-card autographs give these more widespread appeal than many other early-season releases. However, as sets start coming out with rookies in full uniforms, it's likely a lot of collectors will move on.
One of the benefits of so many parallels is that most hobby packs come with at least one numbered card. A lot of these are fairly high numbered but a box should have a couple that are legitimately rare.
While I understand the excitement of getting the first NFL cards of the year, by not using uniforms or logos for rookies seems like a bit of a waste of a license spot. The license is supposed to be an advantage but putting out generic cards like these rookies are put them on a level playing field. I get the logistics and reality behind the decision, but I'd much sooner wait a month or two to get something that looks and feels right.
Wow, I gave you and your team five stars for having this information ready the day after Thanksgiving!
You all work way too hard! But I understand. I played jazz for over 30 years. I got to travel and receive a really fantastic income. For me, just playing jazz was my dream and I loved it. It was my passion. To get payed was just icing on the cake.
Keep up the great job, keep the passion alive, and I'll definitely purchase some '14 Bowman when it debuts.
Toshi � Thanks, Toshi! All the best to you and your family over the holidays!
Any idea when the check list will be released? I can't wait to buy a jumbo box.
Zach � Like days before it comes out.
Over 100 autographs???? Come on Topps this is beyond overkill. I'm fine if these guys are all first 3 rounds but 25% of the hits are players not even on an NFL roster!!!!!
Really they couldn't put Davante Adams WR GB Packers in their base rc set but they have so many guys who didn't even get drafted. Thanks alot. A 2nd Rnd WR who caught over 20TD passes last year doesn't make your cut. His only auto's are the /25 from the RC premiere. Won't be getting any of my $$$ I'll wait for a real product to come out.
I have a mack nfl auto redemption. Does anyone know the.number of this?
Allen � It's possible. It could also be that they're short prints and none have popped up in the first couple of days.
I understand some of the issues collectors have with first of the year products but everyone must understand that these cards are entry level items. 2014 Panini Score and 2014 Topps Bowman Chrome definitely fall into this category among many others not mentioned here.
Personally, in my humble opinion, I don't take these type of products too seriously! As it is an entry level product, I treat them so.
I normally forgoe the hobby releases and go to a big ticket merchant and purchase blaster boxes of first of the year cards. This concept allows me to have fun, enjoy such an inexpensive product and not worry about it's book value. Ultimately, placing these cards in an album suffices for my taste.
I've only opened a half blaster box yet was pleasantly surprised by how many hits and or inserts were pulled from this break. I'm excited to see what the other half holds.
The base cards are similar with last years design as this presents a; "I'm not too excited about the base cards" syndrome. The colored inserts followed 2013's product but the difference maker as well as a fresh insert was the 1950 Bowman throwback of Bryn Renner, a relic card of Julio Jones, Colin Kaepernick foil die cut, and a gold foil Jason Verrett numbered to 399 and a orange Jordan Mathews numbered to 299 parallel respectively. As for the blaster box, it was a nice break, decent base cards, great inserts that were the difference maker in this product, and finally the ubiqiutos standard colored parallels.
Will another purchase be necessary? No. I'll be saving my funds for the National Card Show here at the IX Center in Cleveland, Ohio and looking forward to my all time favorite go to product of Certified, Elite, Chrome, and Platinum! With a stronger rookie class to look forward to compared to last years 2013 Draft Class disappointment, we as collectors have something to look forward to.
Liking this set somewhat..question though…the redemption cards…what are these numbered to? I saw a Landry on Ebay that said #/5. I just can't find that information anywhere to verify it.
I like this for the beginning of the 2014 collecting class. Good cards to get graded if you get a chrome hit.
Ryan – I've not seen ANY Cody Latimer autos pulled. Is it a super SP or can you confirm that it wasn't produced? Thanks!
I pulled a redemption jalen saunders nfl bowman autograph that you do not have on your list any idea how many are made?
I might rate Bowman better if it were not for all of the subsets. Will someone please tell Topps enough is enough. They have 13, count them 13 subsets on the base cards alone. Topps has heard 13 is an unlucky number, right. This product would be much better with only about six or seven subsets.
Wow, I guess the Dallas Cowboys only drafted one player this year and Ahmad Dixon is his name, a 7th round pick. Why did Bowman leave off Dallas's 1st round pick, Zack Martin or their second round pick DeMarcus Lawrence. Someone must have drank the coolaid at Topps during the selection period.
Pulled a Orange Chrome Bishop Sankey(20/50) refractor along with regular Chrome autos of Bradley Roby, Devin Street, and Andre Williams. Also got several rookie parallels including a gold AJ McCarron refractor and Red Lache Seastrunk refractor. The relic was a regular Deandre Hopkins. For the price($100), its worth buying a box or two. I plan on buying at least one more.
Got one box and liked the product!!! Bowman always does the rookies proud. Lucked out and got a Damien Williams auto x-fractor /10 and a Conner Shaw auto . Will probably get another box and try to build a set.
I have bought several boxes and am overall very pleased with the hits that I received. I have built the Rookie base card set twice still working on the 2nd Veteran base card set.
I was wondering thought can anyone tell me what the difference in the white bordered and black bordered base cards are.
Jim � Black are a parallel set.
Over all designs are nice :) I like the rainbows and the die cuts but most of all the chrome rookie autographs! Havent' landed one yet but I will!
Ryan, have you seen any variations in the cards? Reason I ask is that I have a couple like#18 I have Antonio Andrews RC on one and Denard Robinson on the other#18 and $15 I have Ed Stinson RC and Aaron Dobson on the other…. any info would be appreciated! Thanks! Keep up the good work!
Dave � There are actually two separate sets that make up the 220-card main set. There is a Base set (#1-110), and a Rookies set (#1-110). The numbering overlaps so these cards you are talking about are not variations. Anything with the "RC" tag is from the Rookies set and anything without it is from the Base set.
I'm confused about one of the NFL Bowman Auto redemptions. It says that the player will be in their NFL uniform taken at the NFLPA Rookie Premiere. I have a redemption for C.J. Mosley and I don't think he was there at the Rookie Premiere. I didn't see him on the attendance list or in the group photo of all of the attendees. Any help on this would be great. Thanks.
The generic uniforms and lack of team names on the autos are disappointing, but if that's what was necessary to give us on-card autos instead of stickers then I'm all for it.
Overall, the card presentation is very nice and with 5 hits per box it is reasonably priced. Three of my hits were no-names, but a Joe Flacco relic and a gold auto rookie refractor of Jordan Matthews more than made up for it. I also pulled a Matt Ryan silver parallel, a very cool blue parallel die-cut of RG3, and a red Sammy Watkins refractor numbered to 199. Nice!
Haven't opened any hobby box's but I have opened MANY packs. I must say, I pulled a 1/1 Jimmy Garoppolo GREEN Rainbow!!!! Pretty stoked at how lucky I got, now i just need ol' Jimmy to actually pan out. Yet to pull any Autos, Dies or Refractors though. Will continue to open packs of this set.

Behan M. Fractional Flow Reserve and Cardiac Surgery. March 2018. doi:10.25373/ctsnet.5923123.
Miles Behan of the Edinburgh Heart Centre in Scotland, UK, discusses fractional flow reserve (FFR) prior to cardiac surgery. He focuses on the role of FFR in guiding grafting decisions for patients with multivessel disease and patients who have aortic stenosis and coronary disease.
Totally agree with the strategy for intermediate lesions of CAD. Angina in AS and CAD may be due to either. Good policy to do PCI if FFR is less than .8 and then follow up the patient of Moderate AS for a later TAVI/ SAVR.

More shots of the Golden Gate Bridge for my San Francisco collection from my October photography tour of this amazing city. While I managed to get some star effects, I would have gotten more had I closed down my aperture. F/16 is usually a good bet.
From Golden Gate Overlook at Battery Spencer, north across the bridge.
Thanks to Ed for inspiring me to finish and post these photos! Check out Ed's Sunday Stills for more night shots.

I must tell you….I've had a crazy travel weekend and keep trying to find time to comment on these awesome pictures. I could look at them all day. Each one has something unique yet they are all the same. I love the coloring and the city in the background adds a different dimension. amazing!
The comments are well deserved and you are welcome!
Beautiful night time pictures of the bridge.
Thanks, Ruchi. It's a beautiful bridge!
magnificent photos of this magnificent bridge!!
Beautiful photos! When we visited San Francisco several years ago, we only saw the bridge in daylight. It didn't occur to me to go back at night… I'm sorry we missed that.
Wow! Breathtaking shots! and only 400 iso?
Beautiful! Love San Francisco, been many times!!
Me too, Victoria 🙂 Thanks!
Nice, those are really great.
Stunning! I used to prefer photos of the Bridge in fog, but yours in a clear day are just as good!
Thanks for that, Jeremy! I've seen some spectacular shots of the foggy bridge and was actually hoping to have that happen. It did, but I wasn't at a place to capture it at all well when it happened. But the whole bridge literally disappeared! Amazing.
Amazing, what were you waiting for. Please, post more of your images, I really enjoy that.
Ha! Just time, Loré. I have so many to process but RL just keeps getting in the way 😦 What a nice comment. Thanks for that!
That's my favorite too, Nelson. That's why I put it first 🙂 Thanks for your comment!
Wow wow wow. Stacy you know how I love my bridges, that's how we met. I actually made a noise when I saw these pictures just now. I want to go there with you and see how you do this. Just breathtaking.
Hey, I know all these places. But not like this. Very nice, Stacy.
Glad to take you on a home tour, Bruce 🙂 Thanks!!

Binchester Roman Fort
Bishop Auckland, England, United Kingdom
About Binchester Roman Fort
Binchester Roman Fort contains the remains of one of the largest Roman fortifications in northern Britain. Founded around 80 AD, the fort could play host to a considerable military force and was an important staging post for the Roman military in the region.
Evidence found at the site show that the fort also held cavalry units, with inscriptions showing that they tended to be very much multicultural in nature, with one such unit coming from central Spain and another from what is now Holland. Binchester Roman Fort remained in use throughout the Roman period and a large civilian settlement grew up around it. Indeed, locals continued to occupy Binchester Roman Fort for several centuries after the Roman forces departed. The modern-day village of Binchester is about 2 miles to the east of the site.
Today the Binchester Roman Fort site is open to visitors, who can explore its remains along with those of a Roman bath house within the complex.
