via smartregion.org In May, Advocacy released a new contract research study that examines why veterans are more likely to choose self-employment than nonveterans. Factors Affecting Entrepreneurship among Veterans, by John Hope, Brian Oh and Patrick Mackin, tests the hypothesis that military service imparts some unique training or acculturation that makes veterans more likely to become self-employed than other-wise similar individuals.

"Legendary comic book artist Gene Colan has passed away at age 84, as first reported on the personal blog of writer Clifford Meth. Colan had nearly 70 years of experience in the comic book industry, including work in the 1940s for Marvel's precursor Timely Comics. Colan went on to draw several Marvel icons, including Iron Man (in Tales of Suspense), Doctor Strange, and a seven-year run on Daredevil between 1966 and 1973. In 1969, Colan and Stan Lee created the Falcon, a frequent partner of Captain America and the first African-American superhero in mainstream comics. In the 1970s, Colan drew all 70 issues of Marvel's horror series The Tomb of Dracula, and much of the Steve Gerber-written satire Howard the Duck. During his stint on Tomb of Dracula, Colan and writer Marv Wolfman created Blade, a character that went on to inspire three films starring Wesley Snipes and a television series. Colan worked extensively for DC Comics in the 1980s, including multiple issues of both Batman and... more... - Spidra Webster from Bookmarklet

"Dressing up as a superhero goes back to the beginning of the comic book genre. I would have guessed most kids would have dressed up as Batman or Superman, but a photograph being shared by NOLA.com shows an early Alan Scott fan ready for action. On Mardi Gras 1946, Fred Lipps Jr., 13, donned the costume and was photographed at his aunt’s house on Polymnia Street, near the corner of Dryades, in Central City. A great fan of comic book superheroes, Lipps chose Green Lantern ‘frankly, because I thought the costume was the easiest to reproduce; no fancy cowls, burning flames, wings or such.’ I think this is pretty awesome for a couple of reasons 1) the kid was 13 at the time, and 2) the guys behind him aren’t looking at him like he is some kind of weirdo. Of course it was during Mardi Gras, so his costume may have been tame in comparison." - Bluesun 2600 from Bookmarklet

The Alan Scott version, eh? ;D - CarlC, spelling expert

Some 86 percent of Americans say they have been victims of incivility, most commonly while driving (72 percent) or while shopping (65 percent.) About six in 10 Americans admit they themselves have been rude. The survey, taken of 1,000 Americans in May, was conducted by Weber Shandwick and Powell Tate in partnership with KRC Research. The survey gives no definition of what uncivil behavior is. My definition is that if you cut me off in traffic, that’s incivility. If I give you the finger for doing it, that’s justice. A vast majority of Americans (91 percent) say that globally “incivility has negative consequences for America … is perceived to be harming America’s future, hurting its reputation on the world stage and preventing it from moving forward.” On the other hand, you mess around with us, and we’ll send a drone to take you out. - #cryptic from FFHound(roid)!

"It is Independent Booksellers' Week, when we raise the flag for those who forge a retail path of literary quality above cut-throat supermarket deals on the top 10 bestsellers. While we're doing so perhaps we should unfurl a banner or two for their close cousins the independent presses, who toil to bring to light literature that will never trouble those bestseller lists but is worthy of our attention all the same." - Shevonne from Bookmarklet

"Huh. As threatened back in November, Starz has really ordered a full season of a TV series based on the Noir anime. As I mentioned last time, the only thing I remember about Noir is it was about two female assassins and it was incredibly boring, but I'm guessing producers Sam Raimi and Bob Tapert -- who are also still producing Starz's awesomely ridiculous Spartacus series -- will keep only the "two female assassins" conceit, and replace the boring bits with incredible violence and gratuitous nudity. Call me crazy, but it just might work!" - Bluesun 2600 from Bookmarklet

I loved Noir. - Pixie

"Last week a nasty Doctor Who rumor was circulating — that even though Matt Smith has signed on to do another 14 Doctor Who episodes, there wouldn't be a full season next year. Sadly, these suspicions have been confirmed. Danny Cohen, Controller of BBC One, was speaking at an event where we got the first confirmation that Doctor Who would NOT becoming back for a full season in 2012. A member of the audience, Wayne Clarke, confirmed via twitter that "Danny Cohen says there won't be a full series of Doctor Who in 2012, but a special run for the anniversary in 2013." Which means that perhaps only a few episodes from the new season will air next year, and the rest will air in 2013. Cohen joked that the delay was due to Steven Moffat's other commitments on Sherlock Holmes, but the BBC later clarified that this wasn't the real reason (according to the BBC's Lizo Mzimba.) But at the very least, let's hope this means the 50th anniversary will be an even bigger celebration of the show's long history, with tons of cameos and a huge storyline." - Bluesun 2600 from Bookmarklet
