CAPE ELIZABETH — Town councilors were greeted Monday by residents waving signs in support of the School Board’s proposed 3.1 percent budget increase.
The council’s May 7 public hearing was held to hear input before the $25.6 million fiscal year 2019 budget proposal is deliberated and put to a council vote May 14.
The approximate spending increase of more than $762,000 would raise the school portion of the town tax rate more than 10 percent. If combined with the proposed $12.4 million municipal budget, residents could expect to see an overall $1.33, or 7.4 percent, increase in the property tax rate, from this year’s $18 to $19.33 per $1,000 of assessed valuation in fiscal year 2019.
A group calling itself Concerned Residents of Cape Elizabeth stood on the Town Hall lawn prior to the meeting with pro-budget and pro-School Department signs. Residents Lauren Glennon and Sarah Crawford organized the demonstration and circulated a letter that resulted in more than 400 supporting signatures.
“We know the School Board has worked really hard to get this budget down knowing that we are receiving a huge cut in state funding this year, and if this doesn’t get passed then we lose more,” Glennon said. “We’re here to say we love Cape Elizabeth and we support our schools even during a budget crisis.”
Glennon said the group includes parents with young kids who haven’t been able to attend and speak at prior meetings, as well as other town residents.
“I think there’s a lot more support than the Town Council agrees,” Crawford said.
Inside, it was standing-room-only in council chambers, with some people standing along the walls. About 35 people spoke in favor of the budget during the hearing, representing a range of demographics – parents, those without children, seniors, students, longtime residents and newcomers.
High school freshman Sylvia Crawford said her family moved to town eight years ago for the “excellent school system.”
“Members of the community will be voting on a number that will directly affect my and my peers’ education and gateway to the rest of our lives,” Crawford said. “… Being 15, (I) cannot vote for what I believe in. So, I’m standing here in front of you asking you to vote in favor of the students.”
Resident David Hillman said he supports the budget in the wake of losing $878,000 in state funding for fiscal year 2019.
“Put the blame where it is. It’s not on the schools or the School Board and certainly not on the students … It’s on the state of Maine,” he said. “We’re being forced to make up for their cut.”
Mary Ann Lynch and Anne Carney, candidates for the Democratic Party’s nomination in House District 30, echoed Hillman.
“For the size of the cut … (the School Board) did a great job,” Lynch said.
Resident William Gross, who volunteers in a high school physics class, however, said he thought the student-to-teacher ratio was too low. His children graduated from CEHS in 1999 and 2002, he said, when the average was 12-to-1. Now, he said, it’s 9-to-1. He proposed eliminating one additional staff position each year for the next 15 years, which he estimated would save $2.5 million.
“I don’t think the problem is caused by the state reducing its funds this year, but rather it’s been building for 15 or 20 years,” Gross said. “… In my opinion, the quality of education the students are receiving today … is not any better than the wonderful education my kids got.”
Another resident, Chuck De Russo, followed by saying he, on the other hand, thinks seven students per teacher would be an improvement.
“I don’t think we want to look backwards … I am retired and I want to take the hit,” he added. “My hierarchy of values is kids first.”
School Board Chairwoman Susana Measelle Hubbs also asked the Town Council to send the proposed budget to voters in June to let them decide.
“This year’s budget … is a true compromise,” she added. “The School Board has been forced to negotiate against itself. … We are at a crossroads.”
Measelle Hubbs also proposed forming a joint committee of councilors, board members and other citizens to develop ways to increase local revenue for the schools, starting right after the June 12 referendum.
“We can no longer be at the state’s mercy and hope for the best,” she said.
Residents line Ocean House Road outside Cape Elizabeth Town Hall to show their supportMay 7 for the proposed $25.6 million school budget. The Town Council will vote May 14 on whether to send the budget to a June 12 referendum.

As the UAE looks to diversify its economy, tourism officials are betting big on the country’s cruise ship travel industry. With more luxury liners and affluent travelers keen to experience the glamour of the Emirates, Dubai is fast becoming a glittering port of call in the country’s burgeoning cruise ship industry.
With the opening in February of the new cruise terminal at Port Rashid, Dubai’s Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DTCM) is betting on continued vigor in the cruise tourism sector. And their bet seems to be paying off. The economic woes of global tourism have spared UAE’s cruise ship travel industry, which is currently witnessing impressive gains in passenger traffic, along with associated benefits to local economies.
Italian cruise company Costa Cruises announced last month it would open an office in Dubai. Keen on developing the promising cruise tourism industry in the region, Costa plans dedicated liners operating from Dubai.
Fleets based in Dubai cater to Arab clientele, offering segregated prayer rooms, Arabic food and beverages, onboard signage in Arabic, as well as Arabic speaking staff and entertainment channels, the company said.
Costa Deliziosa is the first cruise ship to be inaugurated in an Arab country. And its success at stimulating the surrounding economy has not gone unnoticed. Costa’s passengers generated more than $18 million for the local economy last season, in spending on shore excursions, transport, port fees and dining in port.
“Our objective is to invest in Dubai, the Arabian Gulf and the Middle East,” explained Costa Cruises President Gianni Onorato.


With the production of the MZ motorcycle, the East Germans, back in the days when Germany was divided, made a machine that could run on terrible fuel, was tough and reliable and was a triumph of function over form. They're generally reckoned to be horrendously ugly and offer the motorcyclist an extremely budget-conscious ride, earning him or her the lowest possible status in the world of biking. The chassis is terribly heavy, with very cheap suspension and the two-stroke engine smokes terribly and steadfastly refuses to rev to more than about 5,000rpm. An average road 250cc MZ makes about 12bhp and barely tops 65mph - downhill and with a following wind.
A few years ago, some bright spark decided it would be very cool to strip the chassis, tune the engine and start a race series for these bikes...
Why Race MZ Motorcycles?
MZ racing rules allow for very few modifications to the bike, compared to other race series, in order to make this the cheapest possible route into racing. The bike can be purchased, prepared and the engine tuned, for under £1,500. Compare this to around £5,000 to £7,000 for a Super Sports 600 race bike. MZ racing is no less competitive than any other series and has developed a strong following of dedicated racers. The British MZ Racing Club travels around England to compete with Bemsee at Club level. If you want to race, but are short of cash, this is the way to go.
Bike Preparation 1 - the Chassis
The first thing to do is to totally dismantle the bike. The frame and chassis have all sorts of extra bits and pieces on them that can be cut off or discarded, such as:
Centre-stand and a huge chunk of metal that holds it in place.
Loads of little fixing and locating lugs.
The air-box and air-cleaner.
All of the electrical system, including the battery.
Two-stroke oil tank.
Rear mudguard assembly.
Rear exhaust mountings.
And this is by no means an exhaustive list.
The foam on the seat is very heavy. Although you have to use the original seat base, you can remove almost all of the foam, going as far as your buttocks will allow. Most people leave a little hump on the back as a rest so you don't slide too far back along the seat when crouched over the bike. The forks are lowered through the yokes, and some people have them shortened. The rear shocks can be changed1 but you can't adapt the suspension to use a mono-shock arrangement, or move the mounting points. The wheels and brakes can be exchanged for units from other bikes - Yamaha's TZR125 being the most popular donor here - to save weight. Clip-on handlebars are fitted below the top yoke, to allow a more sporty seating position and to save more weight. The hefty footrests are removed and rear sets fitted. The general rule is 'save weight to gain speed' and it's a remarkably effective way of boosting the top speed and acceleration of these reluctant machines.
Bike Preparation 2 - the Engine
The engine can then be removed and sent for tuning. There are a fair number of people doing tuning for MZ engines and you don't have to have the whole thing done by one tuner. The top end can be done by one person and the bottom end (particularly the clutch and gearbox work) can be done by another. Modification to the gearbox - the third gear selector forks - is essential to produce a reliable gearbox that will function properly under race conditions. To prevent money being a substantial factor in competition, this is the only gearbox modification allowed.
The oil pump and feed pipes are removed. Virtually all racing two-stroke engines run on pre-mixed fuel and recommended is Castrol A747, a superb oil. Many riders also remove the rev-counter and so the mechanical rev-counter drive can be removed from the side of the engine. There's quite a lot of work done in the tuning and most tuners work in different ways. The piston is changed to a Suzuki one, as this is lighter and stronger, helping the engine to rev higher and sustain those higher revs for longer. The basics include polishing the cylinder head and grinding this head to the barrel thus removing the need for a head gasket, altering and increasing fuel/oil mixture flow, adding ports to the head and piston and some serious black magic.
The standard exhaust breaks ACU rules as it sticks out beyond the back of the bike. Most tuners offer an alternative of some sort, based on the original but with altered internals. Expansion chambers are not allowed. The carb doesn't allow for enough of a fuel flow and so is widened and the internals polished. There are various other bits and pieces to do, mainly to save weight, but this is the main stuff.
Get out There...
To race in the UK you need an ACU licence. You also need to be a member of a recognised racing club and for MZ racing that's Bemsee - the British Motor Cycle Racing Club. At the time of writing the licence will cost £22 this year and first timers - the 'novices' - will also have to get their eyesight tested. Bemsee membership is another £15. Novices have to wear a 'wally2 bib' - an orange vest that shows other racers that they're new to the sport. After completing ten races at at least four different race tracks (with only one race from each race meeting counting), the bib can be discarded.
At each race meeting your bike has to be passed by the 'scrutineers', who check to see if it's a safe machine to ride. They also check your leather one-piece (two-piece leather suits are not allowed), gloves, boots and helmet to make sure they are safe and undamaged.
What's it Like?
Exceptional. If you want an adrenalin rush like you've never had before, this is the sport for you. But be warned, motorcycle racing is horribly addictive and will take over your life.
It's not for everyone. Many have gone out, had one go and said, 'this isn't for me'. Fair enough - there's no shame in not liking something. But you're not likely to meet a racer who just regards racing as a pastime. If you do take it up, you won't be able to do it half-heartedly...
A well-tuned MZ is capable of over 100mph and accelerates hard. Good ground clearance and low weight combine to create a machine that has a high corner speed. Getting and keeping this corner speed is one of the main parts of MZ racing. Larger and bigger-engined bikes often get in the way on the twisty parts of the track. All in all, a surprisingly nimble and fast race bike can be made from an old East German monstrosity.

Analysis of randomized clinical trials leading to new drug approvals in India and USA
Keywords:Randomized clinical trials, Investigational medicinal product, New drug approvals, India, USA
Background:To analyse the number of randomized clinical trials and subsequent new drug approvals in India and USA.
Methods: Data was collected for completed randomized clinical trials done by multinational in India and USA from www.clinicaltrials.gov during the period from 1/1/2009 to 31/08/2014 and the subsequent new drug approvals from 1/1/2010 to 31/10/2015 for India obtained from Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) (www.cdsco.nic.in.) website and for USA obtained from United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) (www.fda.gov) website. Results were measured in terms of percentage of completed randomized clinical trials for investigational medicinal products (IMP) leading to new drugs approvals in India and USA.
Results: A total of 163 randomized clinical trials fulfilled the eligibility criteria. Regrouping them for the same sponsor and IMP resulted in a total of 93 randomized clinical trials. In India, 13 drugs (13.93%) were approved by CDSCO, whereas in USA, 35 drugs (37.62%) were approved by USFDA out of a total of 93 randomized clinical trials. High number of randomized clinical trials were conducted for cancer (17.20%) while less number of randomized clinical trials were conducted for gastrointestinal conditions (3.22%).
Conclusions: This study revealed that, there exists a wide gap between the new drug approvals permitted by USFDA and CDSCO. Thus there is disparity in the number of clinical trials conducted and market availability of new drugs in India showing that India is lagging behind the USA in approval of new drugs. The regulatory authorities, investigators and institutional review boards should ensure the availability of new drugs in India after they have been researched in the population.

Scientists at Swinburne lead research that is transforming industries, broadening our understanding of the world, and improving lives. Advances in technology have vastly expanded the scope of the university’s research work, which now demands greater compute and storage resources.
The challenge for the IT team at Swinburne is how to accommodate this ever-growing need for performance and capacity while sticking to a tight budget.
“We are always looking for ways to help our researchers work more effectively, which means giving them access to powerful and flexible IT resources,” said Simon Naughton, Director of Infrastructure and Operations at Swinburne. “One such example is the National eResearch Collaboration Tools and Resources (NeCTAR) Cloud—a cloud platform for Australian researchers, built on OpenStack. NeCTAR Cloud would provide much-needed computing power to our scientists, without the need for us to operate our own servers. However, we had to deploy supporting storage infrastructure on-premises, as latency concerns and data-sharing restrictions prevented us from using a public cloud.”
Swinburne recognized that a software-defined approach to storage offered an ideal fit for its needs, as it could deliver high performance and scalability at significantly lower cost than a traditional storage infrastructure.
Naughton said, “We wanted to leverage Ceph, as it is the most commonly used storage for OpenStack. However, we didn’t have the in-house resources to support a Community Ceph platform, and most of the vendor-supported distributions we looked at were licensed on a capacity basis—meaning that as our data volumes grow, so too would the cost of our storage, which was unsustainable.”
To solve the challenge, Swinburne selected SUSE Enterprise Storage, a software-defined storage solution powered by Ceph technology.
“SUSE Enterprise Storage offered us the best of both worlds—an enterprise-supported solution that is licensed per node, instead of on a capacity basis,” said Naughton. “This was a differentiator that made the product commercially viable for us. We completed a short trial, comparing the SUSE offering against other vendor products and Community Ceph software. The results confirmed that SUSE aligned perfectly with our goals.”
To guide a smooth deployment of SUSE Enterprise Storage, Swinburne teamed up with SUSE Partner Aptira.
Naughton said, “I can’t speak highly enough of Aptira and the value they brought to this project. Not only do they have great knowledge of SUSE technology, they went over and above to understand our requirements and existing architecture, and fine-tune their approach to deliver exactly what we needed.”
Swinburne has deployed two clusters running SUSE Enterprise Storage—supporting storage requirements for its research cloud as part of NeCTAR, a data protection initiative and research data storage.
The university has set up the storage environment in a high-availability configuration, continuously replicating data between its main data center and its secondary site. Swinburne uses Commvault software to provide enterprise backup and recovery, using SUSE Enterprise Storage as its cloud-based target storage.
A distributed storage cluster, SUSE Enterprise Storage provides virtually unlimited scalability—giving Swinburne the ability to easily expand storage resources as required. As SUSE Enterprise Storage runs on commodity server and storage hardware, it keeps Swinburne’s initial capital expenditure (CAPEX) and ongoing infrastructure costs low.
“With SUSE Enterprise Storage, we have built a very high-performing and scalable storage landscape at a fraction of the cost than we would have been able to with traditional storage systems,” said Naughton. “We avoid CAPEX-heavy hardware spending and a rigid cycle of hardware upgrades every few years; now, we can add capacity and performance at low cost, as and when needed. The project is able to deliver on-premises storage at approximately half the cost of the equivalent public cloud providers’ service.”
With a fast, flexible storage platform in place, the IT team at Swinburne can support the needs of researchers more effectively.
“SUSE Enterprise Storage helps IT be a better partner to research teams,” said Naughton. “We can deliver rapid, reliable storage, and guarantee the security and integrity of the data we store. With SUSE, we have found a compelling and affordable solution for supporting Swinburne’s storage needs, and we look forward to harnessing this platform to drive groundbreaking research for years to come.”

Award programs recognize contributions to Iowa history
DES MOINES –The Iowa Department of Cultural Affairs seeks nominations for award programs that recognize individuals, organizations and communities that have made outstanding contributions to the study and practice of Iowa history.
Nominations must be postmarked by Friday, Feb. 1, 2013, and sent to: State Historical Society of Iowa, 600 E. Locust Street, Des Moines, Iowa 50319. The State Historical Society of Iowa is a division of DCA. More information is available at www.iowahistory.org or by contacting Kristen Vander Molen at email@example.com or 515-281-4228.
Following is a list of history award programs that have a Feb. 1, 2013, nomination deadline:
Loren Horton Community History Award: Recognizes the best project that increases awareness and participation in Iowa history on a local level. The award recognizes an individual, group, or organization whose outstanding local history project was completed during the previous calendar year. This award is named in honor of Loren Horton, who represented the State Historical Society of Iowa in many capacities from 1973 until his retirement in 1996. As SHSI’s field services coordinator and senior historian, Horton’s work brought him in close contact with many local historical organizations.
Petersen/Harlan Award: The Petersen/Harlan Award recognizes an individual, group, or organization that has made significant long-term or continuing contributions to Iowa history. It is named in honor of two legends at the State Historical Society of Iowa, William J. Petersen and Edgar R. Harlan. Petersen, long-time curator of the State Historical Society in Iowa City, was known for his book, Steamboating on the Mississippi, thus earning the nickname “Steamboat Bill.” Edgar Ruby Harlan, who served as the second director and curator of the Historical Department of Iowa, played a key role in acquiring many of the museum’s most important collections.

This currency trading instrument is bearish in the long-term, neutral in the short-term, and it is quite choppy at the present. The bearishness in the market has been in place since early November 2017; plus last week was rough. The price rose from the support level at 0.9350, went above the resistance level at 0.9450, only to drop towards the support level at 0.9350 again.
There is a Bearish Confirmation Pattern in the
market. A breach of the support levels at 0.9350, 0.9300 and finally, 0.9250,
would bring about a bearish outlook on the market. A movement to the upside
would save the extant bullish bias.

Bad Wave Release New Single Coney Island Waltz
Los Angeles-based duo Bad Wave are back with the instantly infectious Coney Island Waltz, out on 17th August 2018.
More guitar-fuelled than previous releases, Coney Island Waltz maintains the duo’s unique sound, fusing together genres to create something that is completely their own. As the track starts with scuzzy riffs, driving synth-infused hooks are soon added, building with a frantic energy to an anthemic whirlwind of sound reminiscent of the likes of Animal Collective or MGMT. As woozy vocals flow throughout, it’s another perfect example of Bad Wave’s versatility and ability to create stimulating soundscapes.
Over the past two years, Bad Wave’s Patrick Hart and Tucker Tota have released a slew of singles, each receiving tremendous support, much to the pair’s surprise. 3AM topped the Hype Machine chart, hitting the number one spot, with Runaway peaking at no. 2 and they achieved over a million streams in 2016 as well as featuring on Spotify’s Fresh Findsplaylist. Buzzbands LA, The Guardian, The Line of Best Fit, Wonderland and NME have all also shown support, with Beats 1’s Zane Lowe, BBC Radio 1’s Huw Stephens and LA-based station KCRW flying the Bad Wave flag on the airwaves.
Coney Island Waltz is out now!

And he sees that the revenants of his world—decrepit fathers, vengeful ghosts, jealous husbands, and horned psycho-killers—are lurking in the shadows, waiting to exact their toll. At turns dark and humane, The Death of Bunny Munro is a tender portrait of the relationship between a boy and his father, with all the wit and enigma that fans will recognize as Nick Cave's singular vision. He feels that somewhere down the line he has made a grave mistake, but this realisation passes in The rocker and author reads a book excerpt from his bestselling novel.

As it stands, though, this novel emerges emphatically as the work of one of the great cross-genre storytellers of our age; a compulsive read possessing all of Nick Cave's trademark horror and humanity, often thinly disguised in a galloping, playful romp. Cave is a darkly gifted storyteller. Cave's prose surprises throughout with flashes of grotesque beauty. He feels that somewhere down the line he has made a grave mistake, but this realisation passes in a dreadful heartbeat, and is gone-leaving him in a room at the Grenville Hotel, in his underwear, with nothing but himself and his appetites Help Centre.

THE BELOVED VISION
A New Yorker Best Book of the Year
A rich and luminous biography of nineteenth century music
When one thinks of “great” classical music–music with the most emotional resonance and timelessness–we harken back to the nineteenth century and the Romantic tradition. We recall the sweet melody of a Schubert song, the heroine dying for love in an Italian opera, the swooning orchestration of a Tchaikovsky symphony.
The emotional resonance of nineteenth century has moved generations musicians and resonated with countless listeners. It has inspired artists and writers. But no writer until how has adopted such a vividly insightful narrative approach as Stephen Walsh (see cover and top of page) ) and he shows how there is more to Romantic music that meets the eye–and the ear.
With authority, insight, and passion, The Beloved Vision, links the music history of this singular epoch to the ideas that lay behind Romanticism in all its manifestations. In this complete, entertaining, and singularly readable account, we come to understand the entire phase in music history that has become the mainstay of the twentieth and twenty-first century concert and operatic repertoire. We also come to understand Beethoven, Mahler, Schubert, Chopin, and Wagner anew.
The narrative begins in the eighteenth century, with C.P.E. Bach, Haydn and the literary movement known as Sturm und Drang, seen as a reaction of the individual artist to the confident certainties of the Enlightenment. The windows are flung open, and everything to do with style, form, even technique, is exposed to the emotional and intellectual weather, the impulses and preferences of the individual composer. Risk taking–the braving of the unknown–was certainly an important part of what the composers wanted to do, as true of Chopin and Verdi as it is of Berlioz and Wagner. It’s an exciting, colorful, story, told with passion but also with the precision and clarity of detail for which Stephen Walsh is so widely admired.
The Beloved Vision is a cultural tour de force, by turns bold, challenging, and immensely stimulating.

Stephen Walsh is Emeritus Professor of Music at Cardiff University and the author of a number of books on music including Debussy: A Painter in Sound, Musorgsky and His Circle and the prizewinning, two-volume biography of Igor Stravinsky. He served for many years as deputy music critic for The Observer and writes reviews for a variety of publications.
The author and his catalogue have garnered great praise.
“[Debussy] shines a welcome light on the composer, his music, and his times.”
“Perceptive and authoritative. A sensuous portrait of an iconic composer. richly detailed life of modernist master.”
“Stephen Walsh has followed his magnificent, two-volume Stravinsky biography with this smaller but no less brilliant gem of a book on Debussy. Combining psychological perspicacity about his subject’s life with deep insight into his music, Walsh has made me not only better understand the composer–he has also made me want to re-listen to and re-reflect upon every piece that Debussy ever wrote.”
Harvey Sachs, author of Toscanini: Musician of Conscience
“Stephen Walsh’s Debussy: A Painter in Sound articulates with skill, taste and flashes of humour the evolution of an artistic giant who preferred to leave things ‘half said.’ It is impeccably researched and intellectually engrossing–a thorough and important study of the composer who forever changed the direction of music in our time.”
Stuart Isacoff, author of When the World Stopped to Listen: Van Cliburn’s Cold War Triumph
“In Debussy Stephen Walsh has produced a wonderfully detailed biography of a truly ground-breaking composer. This book should be of interest to any Debussy enthusiast.”
John Powell, author of Why You Love Music and How Music Works
“Compelling. . . . Finely tuned. . . . [Walsh] employs a delightfully fluent prose to carry the general reader along.”
Kathryn Hughes, “The Guardian”
“[A] wonderfully warm, wise and witty book about the greatest French composer of the modern era. As a comprehensive and integrated survey of Debussy’s life and work, it could hardly be bettered.”
Rupert Christiansen “Literary Review”
“Walsh is one of our most insightful writers on music, and his judgment always illuminates what it touches. . . . Published to mark the centenary of the composer’s death, Debussy: A Painter in Sound concentrates on what truly matters.”
Philip Hensher “The Spectator”
“An enjoyable and impressive achievement. . . . Lively yet learned. Walsh depicts Debussy’s Paris with the same verve and scholarship that he applies to the man.” “The Economist”

My involvement with the vexed problems of racial injustice, bigotry and intolerance began long before My involvement was shaped by my origins and experience: by the nightmares of a fortunate British Jew who escaped the Nazi Holocaust only by the accident of birth in Britain; by English anti-Semitism; by revulsion at the Sharpeville massacre and indignation at apartheid in South.

Everyone knows Diego Sanchez from his time on The Ultimate Fighter season 1 and his ride through the welterweight and lightweight divisions. But in this telling interview, Sanchez opens up about a myriad of subjects including his own battles with alcohol and drugs.
“I was smoking weed, partying and it really held me back,” Sanchez said.
Now with a renewed spirit and focus as well as rejoining his original team at Jackson’s MMA, Sanchez is ready to conquer the 170-pound weight class. The next test is facing UFC Hall of Famer Matt Hughes at UFC 135.
“It would have been a good fight back in the day, but without a doubt I’m happy that it turned out to be now,” said Sanchez. “I have a real true jump on this training camp and I’m excited to fight at my true capability.”
Also on the show, we go in-depth in discussion about UFC 134 and the events that took place in Rio just last night as well as a segment on Defense Soap and the problems with staph and other skin diseases in MMA.


The Best of Who's Left1 of 12Man, it’s getting harder to update this countdown all the time...
Marvel Comics doesn’t seem to have any plans to stop dominating the big and small screen any time soon. The original Guardians of the Galaxy and the Watcher are the latest additions to the pantheon of Marvel movie heroes, and between Marvel, Sony, and Fox before the end of 2018 the next dominoes to fall will be Domino (see what we did there?), Valkyrie, Bill Foster, the New Mutants, and most notably Janet Van Dyne (Michelle Pfeiffer) and Cable (Josh Brolin).
We see you Ton Hardy, but sorry, Topher Grace beat ya to Venom.
And that’s not even mentioning the MCU small screen debuts of the Inhumans, the Runaways, Cloak & Dagger, and characters like Squirrel Girl and Speedball in New Warriors.
But there’s still a few untapped characters left including some surprising omissions.
Here’s our list of ten Marvel characters who haven’t made it to the big or small screens in live action … yet. Take a screenshot, Marvel could make an announcement they’re all appearing in Infinity War any day now.
GALACTUS2 of 12Okay, okay, we’re kind of bending our own rule here, but the exception proves the rule, right?
Yes, “Galactus” has “appeared” in a theatrical film before.
You tell us - was the version of Galactus in 2007’s Rise of the Silver Surfer a representative version of the character? Or was the one million mile-wide cloud-based version of the “character” Galactus in name only?
We’re going with the latter, and making the case that while other characters have been depicted badly on film, the true Lee-Kirby creation has not been depicted on film at all.
Sorry, you aren’t talking us out of this.
NOVA3 of 12Just a couple of years ago, Nova would have been considered a very long shot for movie stardom. Then a couple of things happened: The Guardians of the Galaxy movie of course, and a new Nova named Sam Alexander was introduced in the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon, and is co-starring in the comic book team book Champions.
Considering that the stars of Guardians are arguably lesser-known characters than Nova himself, it may very well be less of a "why hasn't Nova been in a movie yet?" situation and more of a "how long until the Nova movie comes out?" situation. (And if not a Nova solo film, another cosmic feature with Nova as part of an ensemble certainly sounds like a thing that could happen.)
Of course, the Nova Corps appeared in a somewhat different form in Guardians, and though Nova wasn't in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, there are still plenty of places that Sam Alexander, or even original Nova Richard Rider, could find their way into the MCU.
SHE-HULK4 of 12Marvel has had a tricky time getting a Hulk movie franchise off the ground following mixed receptions to both 2003's Hulk and 2008 reboot Incredible Hulk - and some licensing issues with Universal - so it's not entirely surprising that a She-Hulk movie hasn't happened yet.
But the high-profile of Jennifer Walters within the Marvel Universe — she’s currently Marvel's flagship Hulk — combined with the warm reception to Mark Ruffalo's cinematic Hulk does make it feel at least possible that she'll pop up somewhere sooner rather than later.
There was talk of a She-Hulk film in the early '90s, but then you'd be hard-pressed to find a character on this list (or in comic books in general) that hasn't had a movie in some form of development (or at least heavily rumored) in the past couple of decades.
MILES MORALES5 of 12OK, so Miles Morales is technically going to appear in film from Sony, it’s an animated movie. And since that’s the case, we’d still like to see him brought to the big screen in live action.
With Sony building a second Spidey cinematic universe with some supporting characters, there’s room for Miles in the flesh. And who knows – maybe that animated movie is Sony testing the waters?
And of course, Miles' uncle Aaron Davis appeared - and made mention of his "nephew" - in Spider-Man: Homecoming.
SPIDER-WOMAN6 of 12Given Spider-Woman's history as both an agent of Hydra, and as an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., it seems like a no-brainer that Jessica Drew should show up in the MCU at some point.
It's been assumed for some time now that Spider-Woman has been tied up in Sony's Spider-Man rights, but now that Marvel and Sony are partnered for Spider-Man: Homecoming, Marvel may also have access to Jessica Drew as well.
With Sony pursuing films about some of Spidey's other supporting cast - such as Venom, Silver Sable, and Black Cat - it seems likely that a version of Spider-Woman will make her way to the big screen in the foreseeable future.
SHANG-CHI7 of 12For all the controversy Netflix's Iron Fist has generated, one name keeps coming up in the discussion - Shang Chi.
Since Shang-Chi is the Master of Kung Fu (and yeah, he's got some problematic elements too) an ass-kicking, non-stop fight movie seems like a safe bet for something fans would want to see - especially those left cold by Iron Fist.
NAMOR8 of 12Namor the Sub-Mariner is not only one of Marvel's most important characters, he's also one of the oldest, literally — his first appearance was in Marvel Comics #1 in 1939.
Like Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, the film rights to Namor appear to be a little bit complicated. He's a big part of the Fantastic Four mythos (Fox has the rights to that), and recently was a member of the X-Men (also Fox). Back in 2006, it was reported that Universal had a Namor movie in development, and in later years, reports surfaced that the project was dead. Not much has been said recently about Namor's live-action prospects, but there are several possibilities out there if it ever comes to pass.
Though Fox's plans for a joint universe between the X-Men and Fantastic Four seem unlikely to come to pass due to the failure of their most recent Fantastic Four effort, it's nearly a lock the Atlantean will surface (get it?) in a movie eventually.
MOON KNIGHT9 of 12Somehow, Moon Knight feels like an "always the bridesmaid" candidate for a Marvel movie - his name is always being rumored, but when the announcements come, there's no Moon Knight to be found.
But we know the schizophrenic vigilante is on Marvel's radar (especially after the success of Legion) because Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn said he's got a great idea for a Moon Knight movie.
But with Gunn confirmed to direct Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is there a chance the director's vision will ever see he light of day?
ADAM WARLOCK10 of 12
Even though James Gunn admitted that the cocoon’s presence in the first film was no coincidence, Adam Warlock didn't show up in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 - but he did get a cryptic mention as a new creation of Elizabeth Debicki's Ayesha at the end of the film, portending his appearance in a later MCU film.
Soon... but not yet.
KAMALA KHAN11 of 12The star of the breakout hit Ms. Marvel, one of Marvel's top-selling digital titles, is kind of a no-brainer when it comes to a film adaptation.
An Avengers super-fan who takes the mantle of Ms. Marvel after her latent Inhuman gene is awakened, Kamala has quickly become the latest heir to the classic Peter Parker archetype. She's an obvious choice to take the role of a nascent hero coming into her own in the shadow of the already prevalent Avengers.
On top of that, Kamala hits a lot of important buttons for onscreen diversity - a not so subtle topic when it comes to Marvel's films. Her youth, energy, ties to elements that certainly appear central to the future of the MCU, and background make Kamala Khan a character that would be more surprising as an omission than an addition to the MCU.

Whether you are a bird lover hoping to acquaint yourself with a flying buddy, or someone who’d like to have a comfortable and social relationship with an amusing friend, this list is for you.
When there are so many winged friends to choose from, the decision can be a tough one, and so it is important to consider all the factors before you come to a concrete decision.
Before getting into the list itself though, let us first discuss some key factors to consider when starting your journey as a bird pet owner.
Size is the first and most important parameter to consider when you are preparing your house to receive a new roommate.
“What is the size of the bird?”, “is it a very active bird requiring lots of room to fly around in?”, etc. are some questions you must consider.
Another thing to look at is how long of a commitment the bird is going to be and also how long you are prepared to love and care for it.
Lastly, you should make sure that you pick a bird that best suits your lifestyle.
If you’re a busybody who cannot spend a lot of time at home, then you should pick a bird with low attention needs, so that you can give your bird as fulfilling a life as possible!
And now, let’s talk about the birds themselves.
7 Best Pet Birds For Beginners
|Pet Birds For Beginners||Monthly Cost Of Owning||Yearly Cost Of Owning||Lifespan||Social Need|
|Cockatiels||$25 – $40||$200 – $300||Up to 20 years||Medium|
|Lovebirds||$25 – $55||$250 – $500||20 years||Low – Medium|
|Canaries||$25 – $40||$150 – $300||10 years||Low|
|Budgies||$10 – $35||$120 – $350||Up to 10 years||Medium|
|Parrotlets||$40-$70||$300 – $675||Up to 20 years||Medium|
|Finches||$20 – $30||$100 – $200||Up to 10 years||Low|
|Amazon Parrots||$55 – $150||$600 – $900||30+ years||High|
Cockatiels (Nymphicus hollandicus)
It seems only right to begin this list with the most common pet bird in the United States, the cockatiel.
They are medium-sized birds, with a relatively long lifespan, and have the most adorable appearance and mannerisms.
Their most iconic feature is the colorful crest atop their head, which not only gives them a fun and cute look but also helps you read your bird better as it is representative of the bird’s emotional state.
They are loveable birds, who are affectionate and easily trained, making them one of the best pets for a beginner pet owner.
If you want a more vibrant option, that will not only add love but also color to your home, then lovebirds are the way to go.
Coming in a variety of colors like blue, green, orange, and yellow, they are also very common pet birds all over the world.
They are very social and affectionate and are usually kept in pairs. Their attention requirements change based on how you keep them, that is either paired up or solo.
They are quite conversational, but it’s not a grating voice like some bigger birds.
If you buy them paired, which is how they are most commonly sold, they will bond most closely with their partner and turn out to be quite low maintenance.
Canaries (Serinus canaria domestica)
Canaries are birds that have been in captivity for hundreds of years and are well-loved for how low their maintenance is.
They are bird lovers’ favorite, with many beautiful depictions of them in poetry, literature, and so on.
They are small songbirds in the finch family and are well-loved not only for their visual aesthetics but also for their singing ability.
They are hands-off pets not requiring much interaction or communication, and so are perfect for those who have busy lives but would still love to have a beautiful little bird to gaze at and listen to when they come home.
Budgies (Melopsittacus undulatus)
Budgies or parakeets, as they are also known, are one of the other most popular birds in the United States.
They are small, long-tailed, seed-eating birds that come in an array of wonderful pastel shades like white, yellow, green, and blue.
They are very affectionate birds who are quite cuddly once tamed and are not actually observational birds as is a common misconception.
They can get pretty defensive if you tease or taunt them, but their bite cannot do much harm, and they are generally very loving birds. Hence, they are a perfect fit for a beginner.
Parrotlets (Forpus Coelestis)
Parrotlets are small and spunky birds that are vibrant in both their appearance and their personality.
They are tiny birds with big personalities that come in a variety of fun colors like blue, green, and yellow.
We definitely recommend spending a little bit more time with these birds, as they take a while to bond.
Teaching them fun tricks, feeding them by hand, and getting them fun toys to play with are all good ways to keep this easily-bored bird happy and zealous.
Finches (Haemorhous mexicanus)
If you are a busybody, then finches are another perfect choice for you as they are low maintenance and do not need much attention but will generally bring a lot of light and sound to any home.
They are very social to their own kind and, when bought in batches, will spend the majority of their day communicating and interacting with one another.
They are perfect for beginners not only because they are so hands-off, but also because they are one of the cheapest options that are still rewarding.
Amazon Parrots (Amazona aestiva)
The biggest and most advanced bird on this list so far, amazon parrots have a big personality and love being the center of attention.
They can be trained to sing specific songs and even imitate human speech, and are a complete delight to have in the home.
Though they are pretty advanced, do not fret as they are very expressive and communicative birds which makes them easy to read.
With some time and patience, you can learn to read their moods like a book. They are also the birds with the longest life span, with some birds living up to 60.
Thus, it is important to remember that they are a long commitment when taking on this wonderful pet.
So if you are slowly stepping foot into the wonderful world of birds.
We hope we have given you some direction on which path to choose and what to consider when making this decision.
We also hope you learned something new about these loveable little creatures.
Thank you for reading!

If you love Kit Kat bars, you have got to try these Chocolate Kit Kat Cookies! They are soft and chewy, but also have a wonderful crunch to them.
PERFECT COOKIE FOR KIT KAT FANS
A few years ago I posted a recipe for Kit Kat cookies that were a huge hit with my family. Being the chocoholic that I am, I decided I wanted to try a version with even more chocolate. I love this version even more than the first recipe!
I started with my favorite chocolate cookie base because it always makes a perfectly soft and chewy cookie. Then I added some chopped up Kit Kats.
And of course to add a little more crunch, I stirred in some Cocoa Krispies cereal. I love that they blended in with the chocolate cookie dough, but I’m sure regular Rice Krispies would work fine if that’s all you have.
These cookies turn out perfectly chocolatey, and the Kit Kats are a fun surprise. It’s so yummy biting into a soft and chewy cookie that is filled with crunchy bits of candy bar. I like to use the bags of Kit Kat minis because they come unwrapped, but you can use any version you have on hand.
(To skip my tips and tricks and just see the full recipe card, scroll to the bottom of the post.)
HOW TO MAKE CHOCOLATE KIT KAT COOKIES
- butter, softened to room temperature (I use salted butter, and I recommend letting it soften on the counter.)
- granulated sugar
- brown sugar (Using part brown sugar adds flavor and chewiness to the cookies.)
- eggs (I use large eggs in all of my recipes.)
- vanilla extract
- all purpose flour
- unsweetened cocoa powder (I use regular Hershey’s cocoa.)
- baking soda
- baking powder
- Cocoa Krispies cereal (or regular crisp rice cereal in a pinch)
- Kit Kat candy bars
- semi sweet chocolate chips
- PREP: Soften butter. Line baking sheets with silicone liners, or spray with non-stick cooking spray. Chop Kit Kats. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- WET INGREDIENTS: Cream softened butter and sugars in a large bowl till light and creamy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla.
- DRY INGREDIENTS: Whisk together the dry ingredients in a small bowl. If you have any lumps, sift the mixture. Stir into the wet ingredients, then gently stir in the cocoa crispies, kit kats, and chocolate chips.
- FORM COOKIES: Scoop dough (I like to use a cookie scoop), and roll into balls. Place about 2 inches apart on prepared pan.
- COOK: Bake cookies at 350° for about 10 minutes. Let cool for 3-5 minutes on pans, then remove to wire wracks to cool completely.
PRO TIP: After I’ve scooped my cookie dough onto the cookie sheets, I like to add some extra Kit Kat pieces to the top. But if you are in a hurry you can totally skip that step.
LEFTOVER COOKIES? Cookies can be stored at room temperature for 4-5 days if stored in an airtight container.
If you need to store them long term, you can freeze them. I like to place them in heavy duty ziplock bags, but any airtight container will work. They will last about 4 months in the freezer.

- 1 cup Cocoa Krispies cereal (you can use regular rice crispies in a pinch)
- 1 8 oz bag Kit Kat Minis
- 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cream butter and sugars in a large mixing bowl. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
- Sift or whisk together flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Stir into creamed ingredients.
- Add Cocoa Krispies, Kit Kats, and chocolate chips and stir gently.
- Roll dough in balls and place on lightly greased or silpat lined cookie sheets.
- Bake at 350° for about 10 minutes. Cool for about 3 minutes on the pan, then remove to cooling racks.

Behind-the-scenes footage shows how excited Detroit Lions were to draft Jameson Williams
The Detroit Lions traded up to No. 12 in the 2022 NFL Draft to select former Alabama WR Jameson Williams.
The Lions were excited to get Williams, despite his torn ACL suffered in the national title game against Georgia.
Now, we can see just how pumped up they were when Williams fell to them. Below, you can see behind-the-scenes footage of the moment the New Orleans Saints drafted Chris Olave at No. 11, meaning Williams was on the board for the Lions to take him at No. 12:
Inside the #Lions draft room:
*Reaction to the Vikings telling them they'd trade down to 32.
*Reaction to the Saints trading in front of them.
*Reaction to the Saints passing on Jameson Williams.
All of this is AWESOME behind-the-scenes.
— Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) June 9, 2022
Williams isn’t expected to be ready for training camp this month, but it is possible he could be ready for Week 1 of the 2022 NFL season this fall.
We’ll see if he continues to perform like a superstar like he did at Alabama.
