Hi Everybody!

This is Victoria and this is my first blog post for Classy Curls. This blog will contain my journey through transitioning to natural hair as well as other tips and tricks 🙂 This is also a blog about self-motivation and self- confidence in women who want to embrace their natural hair. I will not judge you. This is a friendly environment. Happy Blogging!

My Story

I decided to go natural June 2010 and I have been looking forward ever since.But before then I attempted to start in Dec 2009. My roots had gotten so thick and my hair began growing longer than it has ever been.Around May 2010 I was going to my senior prom and my mother pressured me to get a relaxer considering it was my “big day” and all. So I did it….ugh wish I didn’t now.All my life I have been getting relaxers about every month or so. I guess this was an easy way or my mom to deal with my thickness.Right now I am about 32 weeks into it and man has it been rough! lol. My new growth is everywhere but I am learning how to tame it slowly but surely. Most of the time I continue to wear my hair straight until I chop off the rest of my relaxed ends. What got me interested in going natural was…well let’s just say I was experimenting. While researching hair online, I heard that going natural is soo much healthier for your hair. So I began stretching out my relaxers and I continued to see my natural curl coming in. I LOVE IT! Another plus I got was length. My hair has grown so much over the last couple of months!

My Favorite Products Thus Far:
  • Cantu Shea Butter conditioning cream
I have been using this one for about 4 days now. lol I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! I use it as an everyday moisturizer.
  •         Africa’s Best Herbal Oil
            I use this as a hot oil treatment and to seal my ends

Well that’s all for today ladies! Any questions or comments feel free to comment and I will reply with an answer 🙂

How to Pray the Rosary

The Rosary is a Scripture-based prayer. It begins with the Apostles' Creed, which summarizes the great mysteries of the Catholic faith. The Our Father, which introduces each mystery, is from the Gospels. The first part of the Hail Mary is the angel's words announcing Christ's birth and Elizabeth's greeting to Mary. St. Pius V officially added the second part of the Hail Mary. The Mysteries of the Rosary center on the events of Christ's life. There are four sets of Mysteries: Joyful, Sorrowful, Glorious and––added by Saint John Paul II in 2002––the Luminous.

The prayers of the Rosary

The repetition in the Rosary is meant to lead one into restful and contemplative prayer related to each Mystery. The gentle repetition of the words helps us to enter into the silence of our hearts, where Christ's spirit dwells. The Rosary can be said privately or with a group.

The Five Joyful Mysteries are traditionally prayed on Mondays, Saturdays, and, during the season of Advent, on Sundays:

  1. The Annunciation
  2. The Visitation
  3. The Nativity
  4. The Presentation in the Temple
  5. The Finding in the Temple

The Five Sorrowful Mysteries are traditionally prayed on Tuesdays, Fridays, and, during the season of Lent, on Sundays:

  1. The Agony in the Garden
  2. The Scourging at the Pillar
  3. The Crowning with Thorns
  4. The Carrying of the Cross
  5. The Crucifixion and Death

The Five Glorious Mysteries are traditionally prayed on Wednesdays and, outside the seasons of Advent and Lent, on Sundays:

  1. The Resurrection
  2. The Ascension
  3. The Descent of the Holy Spirit
  4. The Assumption
  5. The Coronation of Mary

The Five Luminous Mysteries are traditionally prayed on Thursdays:

  1. The Baptism of Christ in the Jordan
  2. The Wedding Feast at Cana
  3. Jesus' Proclamation of the Coming of the Kingdom of God
  4. The Transfiguration
  5. The Institution of the Eucharisthow-to-pray-the-rosary

Praying the Rosary

Familiarize yourself and/or your group with the prayers of the rosary.

  1. Make the Sign of the Cross.
  2. Holding the Crucifix, say the Apostles' Creed.
  3. On the first bead, say an Our Father.
  4. Say one Hail Mary on each of the next three beads.
  5. Say the Glory Be
  6. For each of the five decades, announce the Mystery (perhaps followed by a brief reading from Scripture) then say the Our Father.
  7. While fingering each of the ten beads of the decade, next say ten Hail Marys while meditating on the Mystery. Then say a Glory Be.
    (After finishing each decade, some say the following prayer requested by the Blessed Virgin Mary at Fatima: O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell; lead all souls to Heaven, especially those who have most need of your mercy.)
  8. After saying the five decades, say the Hail, Holy Queen, followed by this dialogue and prayer:

    V. Pray for us, O holy Mother of God.
    R. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
    Let us pray: O God, whose Only Begotten Son,
    by his life, Death, and Resurrection,
    has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life,
    grant, we beseech thee,
    that while meditating on these mysteries
    of the most holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary,
    we may imitate what they contain
    and obtain what they promise,
    through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

    (A prayer to St. Joseph may also follow.) Conclude the Rosary with the Sign of the Cross.

Photos Tell a Story of Disappearing Coastal Land

September 16, 2016

Every hour, a plot of land the size of a football field subsides into the sea in Southeast Louisiana. Over the past 80 years — thanks to the channeling of the Mississippi River, which used to deposit sediment on the shoreline, thanks to drilling for oil and gas, and now rising seas — about 2,000 square miles of the state’s coastal landscape have disappeared.

Healthy Back To School Ideas

Healthy Ideas!

Another Natural Products Expo East has come and gone, but I can truly say it was an amazing weekend! We transformed our booth for this expo by revealing a new design to showcase all our coconut oil products and give an interactive feel with iPads and a projection screen. The no-grain granola and black bean brownies that we served courtesy of Keep It Real Food Company were also a hit! When I had some down time from working, I took the opportunity to walk the expo floor to scope out new products and releases.

Being a college student, I’m always on the lookout for healthy foods and products that are great for everyday use. All of these products listed below are great for back-to-school breakfast ideas, snacks, and the all important immunity support (late night anyone?). Finding a healthier, more natural alternatives to items that may currently stock my pantry or medicine cabinet is something I’m always trying to do. Let’s take a look at what I found:

Vans Natural Foods– From waffles, to bars, and crackers, Vans Natural Foods line of products is great for breakfast and snacks. I picked up a bag of their “Say Cheese!” gluten-free crackers that were very tasty! These crackers are loaded with oats, brown nice, millet, and amaranth (a plant based protein with amino acids). Another benefit of these crackers, there are no trans-fat, artificial colors or flavors, and they are cholesterol-free and corn-free.

Ola! Granola– I became slightly obsessed with this granola over the few days I was at expo. I loved I could pronounce everything on ingredients list (read: no artificial ingredients). With flavors such as vanilla almond, cranberry orange pecan, and honey, this is the perfect addition to breakfast or homemade trail mix. The one-ounce packets are great for portion control and a perfect grab-and-go snack!

Pur Gum– This sugar-free gum is one of my favorites because it does not contain aspartame, they used Xylitol instead. I personally think there was a better taste to this gum and the flavor lasted for a long time. Speaking of flavors, there’s no shortage: peppermint, wintergreen, and pomegranate mint…there’s something for everyone!

Florida’s Natural Organic Au’some Nuggets– Let me start off by saying, these little fruit flavored snacks will be your new addiction. These are a healthy alternative to candy and other sugar packed snacks on the market. Packed with vitamin C, these snacks are made even better because they don’t have preservatives or artificial flavors. You can’t go wrong with packing these as a mid-day treat.

Herbion All-Natural Cough Drops– With cold and flu season right around the corner, I like to keep cough drops stashed in my bag at all times. I came across Herbion cough drops and loved the fact that they are made with all natural ingredients, while still tasting great! With orange, lemon, and original menthol, there’s a variety to choose from when you’re feeling under the weather.

Overall, the Kelapo team had a great time in Baltimore and we can’t wait to go back again next year! Just a reminder, replacing coconut oil for butter and other oils is a healthier alternative as well when cooking and baking. Give one of our recipes a try!

Just a Peek...

This photo is happiness.

I can wipe the counters down.  I can wipe crumbs into the sink, where they will travel into the garbage disposal.  There is no mold in the grout, because there is no grout involved.  Notice how there are no dishes in the sink?  It's because they are in the dishwasher.  Being washed.  BY A FLIPPING DISHWASHER.

The italics are necessary, folks.

Cobwebs & Mouse Crap

Are you ready to suppress some gagging?
Behold, shoddy (and illegal) wiring!  Behold, ugly yellow behind our old cabinets!
Behold, Darin and his mother inspecting piles of mouse feces!
 Slowly but surely, Darin and his father Ray made it all better.
Goodbye, useless partition.
Ah, much better. Farewell, pantry!
Darin and Ray replaced the awful two-toned cottage cheese ceiling with fresh drywall.
They also re-textured the walls in the kitchen, hallway, and living room.
 I am not ashamed to tell you that I shed tears of happiness over the destruction of the tile countertops and fluorescent kitchen lights.  Obviously, more to come!

Kitchen Remodel: The Awful 'Before'

Back in November, I wrote a letter to the woman we've rented from for almost four years.  I expressed how much we loved living in this little house, and asked if she would be willing to sell it to us.  She immediately agreed, and after many handwritten letters later, we came to an agreement that suited both parties.  As of Wednesday, the house is officially ours!  Well, actually the bank's, but whatever...
It feels so good to finally own the house.  Our new Ikea Lidingo kitchen is patiently waiting in the garage, paint swatches adorn the walls, and popcorn ceiling is slowly being chipped away.  We love the location, but the house itself is outdated and occasionally gross.  Our first project is the kitchen and dining room.  I decided to take the 'before' pictures without cleaning first, in the interest of keeping it real and being lazy.
Now that you have an idea of the layout, enjoy some paint swatches!  Darin and I wanted to go for a fresh green... a calm, yet energizing green... a perfect green... a nonexistent green.
Colors from top left clockwise: Valspar Prairie Willow, Leaf Bud, Fiddlehead Fern, (the bright color that we used in our former home- used for reference only!) Leaf Bud again, (left center) Paris Mint, (right center) Limeade, (bottom left) Green Tea Latte.  Since the walls are covered in yellowy primer and textured in cellulite, no color looks great.  Also, this space gets so much varying light that it was hard to decide!  We almost got more samples, until I started washing dishes in front of our favorites, Valspar Leaf Bud and Valspar Green Tea Latte.
(I can't WAIT to destroy the old and stained tile. Rest assured, I bleach it frequently.)
 The first photo is with no flash, and the second is with flash.  None of these photos are accurate.  From real life to my camera to your computer screen, the true color gets lost in translation. Green Tea Latte (on the right) is this gorgeous creamy greyed green with a touch of mint.  It reminds me of my favorite green nail polish, Julep's Susie.  It pulls very neutral in some lights, and quite fresh yet not overwhelming in direct light. It is a truly unique color.  I think it will look lovely with the white cabinetry, shiitake colored counters, and touches of teal and red and yellow throughout the room.  (What can I say, we love color!)

I still can't believe that I will have a dishwasher and garbage disposal soon.  After not having them for four years, they seem like unattainable luxuries.  My in-laws are spending all of June here to help us remodel.

Please flood the comments with questions and/or comments.
I need all the help I can get.

The Perfect Pair

I am on the never-ending quest for perfect lip product and blush combinations.  One doesn't have to be all matchy-matchy, but when it works, it works.  I find that if my lips and cheeks have the same color undertone, I can do what I like with the eyes.  Today I paired rosy-peach blush, faintly coral lips, taupe-grey eyeshadow, and emerald eyeliner for a simple spring look.
 Eyeshadow: TheBalm Shady Lady 2 palette
Eyeliner: Sephora Pantone Universe Emerald eyeliner (discontinued, but try this)
Lipstick: Revlon 'Lover's Coral'
Foundation: Revlon Colorstay 'Sand Beige'
I love the warmth of the blush and lipstick!  It awakens my face and makes me look like I got a full night's sleep.  It took me a few months to fall in love with this blush.  I was thrown off by the immense hype, the lack of immediate KA-POW, and the $25 price tag.  It looks beautiful with coral, red, and pink lipsticks; it is one of the most versatile blushes I own.  I slowly build the color up with an Ecotools kabuki brush.  I never thought I'd say this, but MAC blushes are steadily becoming my favorite!  What a sheep am I.

Coral, it's time.

 Cardigan, blouse, belt: Gap
Skirt: Secondhand from Twice
Necklace: American Eagle
Bracelet: ShopLately
Shoes: BC Footwear
Glasses: Warby Parker: Marshall
Lips: Buxom 'White Russian'
I am a firm believer that one can wear any color in any season.  Black nail polish in summer?  Of course.  Lilac lips in winter?  Undoubtedly.  Navy blue sweaters in spring?  Why not?  For some reason, I can't rock coral confidently when it's not warm and sunny.  Ridiculous.  In any case, get ready to see a lot of orange, peach, and corally goodness.

Happy Monday!

Thursday, April 17, 2014

 Denim Jacket, tee: Gap
Necklace: gift from local friend
Linen skirt: gift from blog friend Emily
Boots: H&M
Tights: c/o We Love Colors
Glasses: Firmoo
 You know those days that aren't warm enough for bare limbs yet aren't cold enough for wool sweaters?  Yeah.  I really wanted to wear my decidedly warm weather linen skirt, so I busted out my trusty purple tights.  Red + purple is one of my favorite color combinations; it shouldn't work, but it does.  I swear that this magical combo enabled me to run faster while I played Capture the Flag with my fifth and sixth graders.  (I always bring an extra pair of shoes so that I can take part in games.)  I was on fire!  ... I still lost and was sent to jail numerous times.

I took pictures of my messy kitchen and dining area today so that you can see the 'before' aspect of our remodeling process.  I can't wait until this house is finally ours!

Have a lovely day~

A Literary Creature

"So, please, oh please, we beg, we pray, go throw your TV set away,
and in its place you can install, a lovely bookcase on the wall.”  -Roald Dahl
 Necklace: ShopLately (Glint & Gleam)
Dress: Tulle
Shoes: Seychelles 'Ballad'
Blush: Estee Lauder 'Peach Nuance'
Lips: Revlon Lip Butter 'Tutti Frutti'
Our little 1,000 square feet of a house doesn't allow me to have every book at hand, so many of my friends (and enemies) reside in the attic.  I'd love to have a sun room/ library someday with built-in bookshelves.  Until then, I'm pretty satisfied to have all my favorites bunched together.  Rowena and Gabriel have a bookcase as well.  I'm not ashamed to say that I raid it often for a good read.  ("A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children's story in the slightest.” -C.S. Lewis)   I tend to guard my bookcase with my life (exaggeration), as I recently caught my nephew skimming through Lolita.  Someday, kid.  Someday.

Please tell me your 'must have forever' book.
Love to you~

DC solicits Fall 2012 trade collections

Tuesday, January 31, 2012

On the Source yesterday, DC Comics Publicity Manager Pamela Mullins announced a host of new trade collections and graphic novels for the rest of 2012. This, on the heels of DC re-announcing the first DC New 52 collections -- this is, for the most part, everything not DC 52 for the year.

I've included some highlights below; I would mention that I am not completely blown away by this list. Green Lantern: Sector 2814 is unexpected, but the rest of these are expected -- additional volumes in reprint series, gargantuan omnibuses of dated material, and so on. In a post another time, I'll look at some DC material I'd still like to see collected -- if this is it for DC for 2012, seems to me they're not stretching themselves too far, in favor of letting the DC New 52 collections shine for the year.

(Would love to see a comics blog get some votes for a Shorty Award, by the way, if you'd like to help out.)

Here's what I noticed:

Writers: Doug Moench, Alan Grant, Chuck Dixon, Mary Jo Duffy and Dennis O’Neil
Artists: Mike Manley, Dick Giordano, Bret Blevins, Graham Nolan, Scott Hanna, Ron Wagner, Tom Grummett, Jim Balent, Rick Burchett, Barry Kitson, Mike Vosburg, Mike Gustovich, Lee Weeks, Joe Rubinstein, Phil Jimenez and others
Collects: BATMAN #509, 510, 512-514, BATMAN: SHADOW OF THE BAT #29, 30, 32-34, DETECTIVE COMICS #676, 677, 679-681, BATMAN: LEGENDS OF THE DARK KNIGHT #62 and 63, ROBIN #8, 9, 11-13, CATWOMAN #12, 13 and SHOWCASE 94 #10
$29.99 US, 652 pg

This collection also doesn't collect the "Knightfall: The Search" chapters that we talked about earlier; since Knightfall Vol. 2 has some of those "Search" chapters and not all of them, I still believe there's a mis-print somewhere and Legends of the Dark Knight #59-61, at least, will be collected in one of these volumes.

This volume does however, include Batman: Prodigal, the story where Dick Grayson becomes Batman the first time around. I know why DC's including this, as fans have been clamoring for another shot at Prodigal ever since Dick became Batman after RIP -- but if you're reading the Knightfall saga for the first time, Prodigal is terribly anti-climactic. You've had three volumes of Bruce Wayne beaten and fighting to reclaim the Batman mantle, he returns and defeats Azrael -- and then disappears for twelve entire issues while Dick fumbles around as Batman.

If the four-part "Troika" storyline that followed had also been included, which has Bruce back in a new costume, that might bring this book full circle; take it from me, however, that Prodigal ends on a cliffhanger, and if you've been following the story since the beginning of Knightfall, I'm pretty sure you'll be saying "Is that it?"

Writers: Barbara Kesel, Chuck Dixon, Jai Nitz, Terry Moore, Geoff Johns, Jimmy Palmiotti, Judd Winick,
Artists: Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti
$39.99 US, 304 pg

This is a wacky collection in part because it's got an otherwise-uncollected Birds of Prey story in it that took place between Chuck Dixon and Gail Simone's runs. Also nice to see the uncollected material from Wonder Woman #600 surface here and there.

Writers: Gregg Hurwitz and Jason Aaron
Artists: Szymon Kudranski and Jason Pearson
$14.99 US, 144 pg

I've said before I think we need a Penguin miniseries like a hole in the head, not that that should dampen your enjoyment of it. That DC pads this post-Flashpoint Penguin origin with a pre-Flashpoint Penguin one-shot leaves me scratching my head.

Writer: Paul Levitz
Artists: Marcos To and John Dell
Collects: HUNTRESS #1-6
$14.99 US, 144 pg

On the other hand, DC's not puffing this one up at all. As a backdoor pilot to DC's new Earth 2 endeavors, it'll likely sell itself.

Writers: Dan Mishkin and Gary Cohen
Artists: Ernie Colon, Ric Estrada, Pablo Marcos, Alex Saviuk, Bob Smith, Gary Martin, Romeo Tanghal, Kurt Schaffenberger and Karl Kesel
$19.99 US, 648 pg

I can't claim much of a touchstone for this series myself, but I recognize it as a long-uncollected DC classic and I'm sure someone is excited about this. No doubt this is coming out in part in conjunction with the upcoming Cartoon Network series.

Writers: Geoff Johns, Grant Morrison, Greg Rucka and Mark Waid
Artists: Keith Giffen, Joe Bennett, Ruy Jose, Jack Jadson, Chris Batista, Jimmy Palmiotti, Ken Lashley, Eddy Barrows, Rob Stull, Shawn Moll, Tom Nguyen, Todd Nauck, Marlo Alquiza, Dale Eaglesham, Art Thibert, Patrick Olliffe, Drew Geraci, Ray Snyder, Phil Jimenez, Andy Lanning, Rodney Ramos, Dan Green, Tom Derenick, Jay Leisten, Jamal Igle, Keith Champagne, Andy Smith, Giuseppe Camuncoli, Dan Jurgens, Norm Rapmund and Darick Robertson
Collects: 52 #1-52
$150.00 US, 1216 pg

I've been calling this one for a while -- with DC's current emphasis on Omnibus editions, the weekly 52 series would seem ready-make for that kind of collection. One thousand, two hundred sixteen pages and $150 is a hefty, expensive book, however, at the same time DC is getting flak for the quality of their collections (see video via Kris Shaw below) -- I'm curious if this'll be worth the paper it's printed on, so to speak, or if at some point customers will start voting with their wallets against DC's poor bindings if they continue.

Writer: Paul Levitz
Artists: Chris Batista, Rich Perotta and Marc Deering
$14.99 US, 144 pg

Surprised to see DC go paperback on this. One person's opinion, I didn't think Legion really needed a "secret" origin -- maybe it hasn't sold so well that DC won't risk a hardcover on it.

Writer: Warren Ellis
Artists: Tom Raney, Oscar Jimenez, Bryan Hitch, Paul Neary, Randy Elliot and others
Collects: STORMWATCH #48-50 and #1-11
$29.99 US, 384 pg

Glad to see this continuing. The first new Stormwatch hardcover collected the Stormwatch: Force of Nature (#37-42) and Lightning Strikes (#43-47) trades; this encompasses Change or Die, A Finer World, and Final Orbit. Not included here, troublingly, is the in-continuity WildCATS/Aliens story that ended Stormwatch and lead into Authority; maybe this will appear if DC keeps collecting WildCATS alongside this.

Writer: Len Wein
Artists: Dave Gibbons, Dick Giordano, Mike DeCarlo and Mark Farmer
Collects: GREEN LANTERN #172-176, 178-183 and 185-186
$16.99 US, 192 pg

I'm rather enthused about this collection (series, it seems) of early 1980s, just-before-Crisis on Infinite Earths Green Lantern stories, which involve Hal Jordan in Earth-bound tales and eventually John Stewart taking over as Green Lantern. I imagine these will read as rather dated, and I don't think Hal comes off altogether well in them, but this is a significant period of DC history that lacks collections, especially these that are partially still in-continuity.

Writers: J. Michael Straczynski and Chris Roberson
Artists: Eddy Barrows, Allan Goldman, JP Mayer and others
Collects: SUPERMAN #707-711 and 713-714
$14.99 US, 168 pg

Wouldn't it have been a riot if they'd decided to stick Superman #712 in the paperback?

That's my picks -- you can see the full list at the Source. What jumps out at you on the list?

(Video courtesy Kris Shaw)
Get the Collected Editions scoop before anyone else -- on Facebook!

  1. On the plus side, I believe the Birds of Prey trade collects the last stray issues left out of the hardcover.

  2. The Birds of Prey: Death of Oracle paperback? The hardcover collected the same -- issues #7-15. Despite what earlier solicitations might have said, no stray issues left uncollected.

  3. Ah, ok, thanks for the correction. I hadn't seen the updated info!

  4. If the content listing for the Knightquest TPB is to be believed, then it's supposed to collect 30 issues in 656 pages, which is mathematically impossible. Looking at the new Knightsend TPB's content listing, I guess Bob Schoonover was right in his assumption that the inclusion of Shadow of the Bat #21-23 in the Knightquest TPB was a mistake, and they'll skip all of The Search.

    And I was all psyched about the second Stormwatch hardcover until CE pointed out that WildC.A.T.S./Aliens was missing from the listing. I wonder if it's due to a royalties issue.

    The Legends of the Dark Knight: Alan Davis, on the other hand, is a very nice surprise. While it's odd that it will include the first chapter of Year Two but not the rest of the arc, pencilled by Todd MacFarlane, it doesn't really affect me because I still own the Year Two TPB.

  5. Again I was kind of happy when I saw The 52 Omnibus, but again my happyness didn't last long.

    The Omnibus have more than 30 pages less than the trades. I asked Dan Didio about it and he answered: "I am very excited about seeing all 52issues in one volume, and any content in the separate collections will be in this book" (https://www.facebook.com/dan.didio/posts/232935576791407).

    I don't see how that will come to pass, but well. Then again, the price and the binding is something I'm not crazy.

    The trades altogether cost $80. That versus $150?

  6. Very often those page counts turn out not to be accurate in first solicitations (and even in final solicitations!), so that may be how fitting it all in comes to pass. Then again, DC's continued poor binding is still an issue

  7. Xavico and I are on the same page...I'm starting to get really irritated at DC for starting to put out some really sub-par products. Absolute Sinestro Corps War? Missing Issues. The Alan Davis Hardcover? Ends by reprinting Part 1 of "Batman: Year Two" and not the last 3 parts. Stormwatch Vol. 2 HC? Missing WildC.A.T.S./Aliens which is ESSENTIAL to the overall story. 52 Omnibus? Costs $70 MORE than the buying the trades. $70!!!!! WTF is going on over at DC?

  8. As a huge Amanda Conner fan, I absolutely excited to pick that giant tome of a hardcover.

    I know a lot of people didn't pick up the Paul Levitz/Marcus To's Huntress mini. So please pick it up on collection. It's very decent story, and mostly importantly Marcus To is one of the best upcoming artist in the industry right now that needs to be on a bigger title.

  9. Does this solicitation mean that the Vol. 2 of the New 52-Trades won't be out till January 2013?

  10. I'm happy about the Amethyst book, although I'd really rather have had it in full color than Showcase.

    That's exactly the wrong GL trade paperback to sell me, though. I'd much rather have had one collecting the book during the Crisis, because those books are a big part of what was actually going on during the CoIE and have never been reprinted. (Honestly, I'd love one of that, one of Roy Thomas's All-Star Squadron and Infinity Inc books, and one or two of all of the crisis crossover issues that went beyond 'red skies'. Maybe in a couple years when we get to the 30th anniversary...)

    Also, speaking of missing key bits to the Batman trade library, we really could use a Road to No Man's Land trade one of these days...

  11. The Amanda Conner book sounds nice-- uncollected issues of Birds of Prey are always good, as there's a big ol' gap in that series.

    I love buying the Omnibus books, and I'd be all over 52 Omnibus ordinarily... but it sure is hard to justify spending $150 (even with an Amazon discount) on what I can get in four trades.

    I find "Sector 2814" strangely intriguing. It's a part of Green Lantern history I don't know much about.

    I am more jazzed about Amethyst, Princess of Gemworld than anyone of my age and gender has any right to be.

  12. Dear Collected Editions - DC's solicits mention a paperback Green Lantern Corps The Weaponer. i cant havent seen Revolt of the Alpha Lanterns (the trade before weaponer) solicited yet. can you confirm this?

  13. The Alpha Lanterns TPB is being released on June 12, according to Amazon. I am also waiting for it. :-)

  14. @matschi, very possibly no New 52 Vol. 2s until December 2012 or January 2013. The last volume ones don't come out until November, and I imagine DC's trade schedule is full enough already without doubling up.

    @Jeff, ditto on a Crisis tie-in book. That would be one uneven, all-over-the-place trade, but it's such a slice of history.

    @Steve, tell us more what excites you about the Amethyst book. I'm really not familiar with the series.

    @Mark and Anon, I hope you find it was worth the wait. I don't want to spoil anyone's good time, but I was not so positive in my review ...

  15. Completely unrelated to the new DC, I would love to see a collection of Ted McKeever and Randy & J.M. Lofficer's Superman / Batman / Wonder Woman elseworlds trilogy inspired by classic silent cinema. Stephen Bissette reviews Batman: Nosferatu here: http://www.lofficier.com/nosferatureview.html

  16. To tie two of those items together; I have a vague recollection of Amethyst being in CoIE, and her and someone else (Dr. Fate maybe?) taking off for Gemworld in that book, but of course that presumably leads off to a story in her own book, which, I would think, is then collected in that Amethyst TPB. Wouldn't these be the types of stories that would go into a Crisis tie-in book? I'm sure there are lots more instances of plot points in CoIE that lead off into the individual books (Guy Gardner getting his ring back being another one).

  17. Thanks for listening to my request for issue details CE! One very happy bunny. :)

    I wondered whether Prodigal would be included in Knightsend, I read the original books a long time ago and was considering the new versions of vols 1 and 2, but I'll take your advice on vol 3 and just get the new printing of the old TP

  18. The Amethyst, Alan Davis Batman, and Gil Kane Superman books are stories I've literally been waiting decades to be collected. (Well, perhaps not literally; I never actually thought the Kane Superman comics would be collected, so I wasn't even waiting for that.)

    Amethyst was a favorite of mine when it came out back in the 80s. Warlord was a great sword & sorcery fantasy series, but Amethyst was closer to the magical fantasies I had read as a kid. And I don't believe DC or anyone else was publishing anything quite like it at the time. Plus, great art by Ernie Colon.

    Those Mike W. Barr/Alan Davis Batman stories are probably my single favorite run on Batman of all time. They did a great job of preserving the tone of the Dick Sprang Batman stories of the 40s, coupled with a more modern storytelling style. I was heartbroken when Davis left the book, and a little furious when I learned the reasons why.

    The Wein/Gibbons Green Lantern is another welcome collection, because that's the point at which I started collecting GL. I had read a couple earlier issues, but as a fan of Gibbons' Dr Who stories, I had to check out his run on GL. I was totally hooked. Hopefully, they will continue on through the Englehart/Staton stories, through the Crisis crossovers, all the way up to the Green Lantern Corps book that they've already released. (And then the rest of the Englehart/Staton run, another favorite.)

    (Note to Jeff R.: I agree the Crisis stories are great, but Gibbons' name on the cover is probably a bigger selling point than Joe Staton. Sadly.)

    And then there's the Gil Kane Superman stuff. The stories are probably uneven, but I remember really loving the Wolfman/Kane story that introduced the robotic Brainiac, bringing in the Forgotten Heroes and Jerry Siegel and Joe Schuster themselves! Kane inking his own work is always a treat, and I loved those two Superan Specials as well. (Plotted by Kane, I think?) And is the DC Comics Presents annual the Roy Thomas Captain Marvel one? That's gorgeous.

    Now, if only DC would do some sort of collection or collections that would collect Mike Barr's Batman annuals and specials from that period. Also, somehow, the Superman annual by Alex Toth, teaming Superman and Batman (if memory serves).

  19. Considering Aliens is a 20th Century Fox property, and that Aliens Comics are still published by Dark Horse, it is almost certainly a copyright/licensing issue.

  20. I know I'm coming late into this discussion, but I'd like to know if there's been any news about the contents of the Stormwatch vol. 2 hardcover.

    Looking at the page count, the info provided doesn't look right, unless DC is planning to include about 80+ pages of extras which seems very unlikely, sice apparently the first hardcover had almost no bonus material.

    Let's do a little Math here: Change or Die has 160 pages, A Finer World has 144 pages and Final Orbit (which includes WildC.A.T.S./Aliens AND Stormwatch vol. 2 #12 -- the last issue of the series) has 96 pages. The three of them total 400 pages. If you consider each of these TPBs has a few disposable pages (indicia, "other books" list and stuff), we're very close to the supposed 384 pages this book will have.

    Besides, it would make no sense (not that that kind of thing prevents DC from making some pretty weird decisions) to stop this collection at #11, which ends right in the middle of a story that continues in the Aliens crossover and the concludes in #12. It would be much more reasonable to end this book in #10 (and that would also leave HC vol. 2 with about the same page count as HC vol. 1).

    So here's hoping that the content info is wrong and that this book does include the whole thing. But if that's not the case, I'll skip these HCs keep my TPBs.

  21. Anderson, Dan DiDio has all but guaranteed (on Facebook) that the WildCATS/Aliens special will not be included in the second Stormwatch hardcover collection, as DC no longer has the rights deal for it. I'm disappointed, too, though I'm glad to have the hardcovers and I'm resigned to seeing about picking up the missing material some other way.

  22. Just one correction, Anderson: the Wildcats/Aliens one-shot is set between issues #10 and #11 of Stormwatch. Even if the HC skips a key chapter in the team's history, it has a conclusive ending.

  23. The WildCATS fought the Aliens?

    That may be the only way you could strongarm me into reading a WildCATs book.

    Love the Alien franchise; sad it won't be collected, but I may have to track that general issue down, if only in the hopes of seeing some Xenomorphs killing heroes I don't care about.

  24. One of the rare inter-company crossovers (especially with a licensed property) that actually affected the continuity of a book or books; Stormwatch was decimated by the aliens' attack and that lead to the end of Stormwatch and the beginning of Authority. All the more reason for it to be collected -- no, I won't even start again. :)

  25. Thanks for the feedback,guys! Even if it's only to have my hopes vanish into thin air... :-(

    Shagamu, you're right, of course. There's no Stormwatch vol. 2 #12. I was mislead by the info on the back of my final orbit tpb, which claims to include the Aliens crossover and #11-12. That should've been #10-11.

    Sorry, my bad (actually, it was mostly DC's bad, but...).

    The page count still puzzles me, though. If it's correct and the 30-something remaining pages are filled with cool bonus material, I'll probably double dip (or triple dip, since I bought about half of the original singles back in the day).

To the Bright Edge of the World by Eowyn Ivey

I greatly enjoyed Eowyn Ivey’s The Snow Child:

It was an evocative and deeply human story with a fairy tale woven in. And like so many fairy tales and folklore – not the Disney versions – this one was touched with sorrow and tragedy. But also infused with love and hope and beauty as they really exist.

Gorgeous prose, a wonderfully developed setting that become a character of its own, and a great cast of characters make this a novel with depth and emotion – a heft belied by the fairy tale at it heart.

So I was excited to read her second novel, To the Bright Edge of the World, a beautiful and engaging epistolary novel.

It reads like the documentation of real history rather than fiction. It moves from the interior thoughts and emotions of its characters to the historic events that surround them, and the interaction of people across social, cultural and language boundaries, all while sucking you into this gripping story of a fantastical expedition and its impact on both the future and the lives of a young marriage threatened by the separation it causes.

Ivey deftly develops the characters both as they react to events and as they reflect on their unique past; family, events, defining moments. You dive deep into the private lives of the characters but also subtly pull back to see the long term impact of the events that drive the story and how they ripple through lives generations later.

And mixed throughout is the possibility of the supernatural.  She does not assume that the folklore and mythology of the native cultures is superstition from the past.  And the characters encounter events and circumstances which cause them to question what they think and know.  Ivey deftly allows this mystery to exist without choosing sides.

Truly a creative masterpiece.

Pre-Med Programs (Part 1): What do I major in?

Medical SymbolMany students aspire to go to medical school, but most universities do not offer “Pre-Med” majors. So what do you study as an undergrad? Part 1 of this post will give you the DL on general Pre-Med tracks & Part 2  will cover accelerated medical programs. (If you are interested in law school, check back soon for a post that will give you the skinny preparing to be Pre-Law.)

The term “Pre-Med” simply refers to a track many undergrads take to prepare for medical school – this includes coursework, extracurriculars, experience in the field, and the actual application process.

Pre-med students can choose any undergrad major (yes – even Bassoon Performance), but specific course requirements (mostly in the scientific fields) are necessary. Subjects like biology, chemistry, and physics are needed to prepare for the MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test) and to fulfill the pre-reqs. Because of this, many pre-med students major in a field of science, but students could major in Religion or any other field as long as they complete the necessary requirements. Because medical schools want to diversify their programs, they are beginning to accept more students with less conventional backgrounds that include humanities degrees.

Find an Adviser That Can Recommend Courses

Meet with an adviser that can suggest appropriate pre-med coursework. It’s important to do well in these courses, so don’t overload yourself, and schedule your courses in a way that allows you to really invest in each class. Med schools may not see you as a stellar candidate if you’re consistently making C’s in your bio classes.

Also, check with the Association of American Medical Colleges for a list of required courses for all medical schools, and look up the individual universities you are applying for to determine if they require any additional classes.

Become Friendly With Professors

Like with any major, networking is essential. It is important to establish lasting relationships with professors early in your undergraduate career, so they can write you distinctive letters of recommendation. (They might also be able to hook you up with great research positions or internships!)

Look for Pre-Med Student Groups

Many schools have Pre-Med student groups that provide great opportunities for support and networking. As with any extracurricular activities, think quality not quantity. Don’t join every group on campus just to lengthen your resume; instead, find groups and activities that actually provide quality experiences that will set you apart from other applicants.

Pursue Activities That Show a Commitment to the Medical Field

Look for internships or volunteer work that shows your interest in medicine. Summer programs, research assistantships, or hospital volunteer work can make you stand out if you commit to them.

Posted on June 3, 2011 at 10:00am 0 Comments

I came to know that today, 3rd of June 2011, here in Brazil, some very influential politicians are going to launch a film that would soon spread the inspiration to many about the legalization of the use of marijuana.

Instead of trying to find an exit from poor education system and find the way to make it improved to the excellent level, where all the citizen of the country would then have access to it, why…

Coastal Cities are Declining – It’s The Sunbelt Cities That are Starting to Grow

In Blog, Community News, Real Estate on April 15, 2014 by Community Expert Team
Coastal Cities are Declining – It’s The Sunbelt Cities That are Starting to Grow

Forget What the Pundits Tell You, Coastal Cities are Old News – it’s the Sunbelt that’s Booming”, from, reports that while traditional big cities are struggling, the Sunbelt cities like Houston and Phoenix are booming. If trends continue, the Sunbelt will keep growing as the coasts decline.

After a brief hiatus, people seem to, once again, be streaming towards the expanse of warm-weather states – extending from the southeastern seaboard to Phoenix. Since 2010, according to an American Community Survey by demographer Wendell Cox, over one million people have moved to the Sunbelt mostly from the Northeast and Midwest. Any guesses for the states that have gained the most domestic migrants since 2010? The Sunbelt dominates the top three: Texas, Florida and Arizona.

Perhaps the biggest sign of a Sunbelt turnaround is the resurgence of Phoenix, a region devastated by the housing bust and widely regarded by contemporary urbanists as the “least sustainable” of American cities. The recovery of Phoenix, appropriately named the Valley of the Sun, is strong evidence that even the most impacted Sunbelt regions are on the way back. The key forces driving people to the Sunbelt are largely economic—notably job creation, lower housing prices and lower costs relative to incomes.

Present Moment 2 – Ethical Awareness of Now

The notion of focusing on the present moment is the essence of mindfulness practice. In many spiritual traditions there are three forms of mindfulness; present moment awareness,  ethical awareness of the present and spiritual awareness of the present. In a previous post we discussed present moment awareness. Today’s essay essays will focus on mindfulness suffused with ethical considerations.

Ethics are omnipresent in the traditions from which contemplative practices emerged. The present moment is never without an ethical/moral context. Mindfulness includes the actions of the individual within the present moment and how the individual should conduct himself/herself. This is based upon a mindful understanding of the consequences of actions and which are desirable and which not.

In many spiritual traditions there are moral and ethical dictates sometimes called commandments that are provided to guide mindful ethical conduct. To transgress is a sin, an affront to a supernatural being. In other traditions, particularly eastern, ethical conduct is guided by the consequences of the actions. Ethical actions are ones that lead to greater spiritual development while those that would be classified as unethical would interfere with the individual’s spiritual development. There are no absolutes, only skillful and unskillful actions.

The Buddha’s Noble Eightfold Path is an exemplar. It specifies the actions and attitudes that lead to spiritual development. Three of these are associated with ethical conduct; right speech, right livelihood, and right action. It is not considered sinful to not follow these principles, rather it is considered as detrimental to the individual. So, the consequences are direct and immediate to the individual.

Right speech is not to engage in false speech or more simply to be truthful. But the notion extends beyond simple lying and truthfulness to a mindfulness of the consequences of what we say and its impact on others. Our words can hurt, our words can be used to manipulate, our words can mislead, and our words can hide the truth. These are all unskillful actions. Truly being mindful we can become more aware of the consequences of our speech and learn to better tailor it to help ourselves and others.

Right livelihood is to make our living in such a way as to not harm others, including other living things and the world itself. If we are truly mindful of our job or occupation we can see the consequences of our livelihood. Doing things that are harmful to others such as engaging in gun sales, production and distribution of harmful drugs such as alcohol and cigarettes, or which extract funds from those who can least afford it are unskillful and in the end harm both the other and ourselves. Similarly, making our living in such a way that it is harmful to the environment or unnecessarily destroys life is also unskillful. The idea of right livelihood is that we should engage in occupations that assist others in the lives and are sustainable within our environment.

Finally, right action is not to engage in harming others, taking what is not given, sexual misconduct, and more subtly doing things that promote unmindfulness, such as ingesting intoxicants. More positively, it is to cultivate loving kindness, generosity, and awareness. Mindfulness of our actions helps us to see clearly when our actions are kind, generous, and leading to greater mindfulness. It helps us see the positive consequences of these actions for ourselves and others. It helps us to see their skillfulness.

It should be clear that mindfulness can be much more than simply being aware of the present moment. Unfortunately mindfulness as practiced in modern west cultures is for the most part neglectful of the ethical aspects of mindfulness. Only being aware of now and our actions in the present moment is not enough. Actions have consequences and without proper mindful appreciation of those consequences the practice of mindfulness is without a compass to guide actions. We need to reintegrate ethics into mindfulness. We need to make it a vital part of our practice.

So, develop mindfulness, but ethical mindfulness as well, be skillful and grow and thrive.

Carlsbad Caverns is described as an underground world, with gigantic subterranean chambers, fantastic cave formations and extraordinary features. It was first discovered by a teenager, Jim White, in 1898. It wasn’t until 1923 when National Geographic Magazine sent an exploration group (with the help of Jim White) and their subsequent article, that news of this enormous cave reached the public. A rope ladder can still be seen that was left over from this exploration. In 1930 Carlsbad became a National Park and in 1995 was recognized as a United Nations World Heritage Site.

We had our day planned when we arrived at the park this morning. Instead of taking the elevator down to the tour areas like most people do, we took the Natural Entrance Route. It is a self-guided tour and follows the traditional explorers’ route, entering the cavern through the large historic natural entrance. This route is a mile and a quarter of steep switchbacks that descends 750 into the earth. Prior to our descent we rented two hand-held remotes to listen to recorded messages by Rangers at designated places along the walk. This walk really gave us an appreciation for the cave and we were happy we chose it.

We purchased a sandwich from the snack bar once we were in the “rest area” of the cave, then proceeded to our next self-guided tour after completion of lunch. The tour was called “The Big Room Route”, a one-mile hike around the largest room in the cave. This walk takes you around the 8.2 acre “Big Room”. All trails in the cave are paved and well-lit, and temperatures are at a constant 56 degrees. Our remotes worked on this trail, also, and Rangers explained the many beautiful areas and formations we viewed. We saw stalactites, stalagmites, columns, and other formations referred to as draperies, soda straws, popcorn and several others.

This took us up to almost 2 o’clock, at which time we had booked the Kings Palace Guided Tour. This was a 1-l/2 hour Ranger led tour through a mile and a quarter of four highly decorated scenic chambers. This tour descends to the deepest portion of the cavern, 830 feet beneath the desert surface. It wasn’t too difficult, but it did require you to descend 80 feet (8 stories) and later climb back up! Many beautiful sights were a part of this tour and the Ranger was excellent. At one time she blacked out all lights as she continued to talk to us. It was at least for 5 minutes, and seemed like longer. We have been on other cave tours, with the lights being turned off for a short period, but never this long. You can’t imagine how “dark” dark really is.

This was a full day’s adventure for us and we were proud of what we were able to do at our age. But, we did see pass by the “Lower Cave Tour” group as they were about to descend on their 50 feet of vertical ladder down into a black hole. Each had gloves and flashlights on their helmets. They looked much younger than us, but we didn’t feel envious.

This ended our tours at Carlsbad Caverns around 4 this afternoon. As mentioned above, there are two ways to enter the cave – by elevator or the walk into it like we did, but the elevator is the only option or way back out.

The weather was nice enough today for the Bat Program that was to start at 5:45, but we didn’t stay. The boys had been left long enough by themselves and were happy to see us. They love this campground’s dog park. There are actually two, side-by-side, so when somebody else comes along with their dog, they usually go to the other fenced area.

This concludes our Trip Log. We have seen some truly magnificent wonders of nature on this trip. We visited 8 National Parks and 5 National Monuments. It’s been fun to share our vacation and experiences with you. Hope you have enjoyed it, also.
