1st Appearance of Teen Titans
Among the best known examples of this issue known to exist.
The publishing of both the 1st Appearance of Justice League and Teen Titans in Brazil are extremely rare and important in the International Edition field.
Justice League with the US cover is the only other country in the world that produced the redundant art from the US.
Brave and Bold No.54 was produced in Brazil with the series O Herói and was the last issue in the series and the series was a Science Fiction Series of the Man of Solar.
The production of this comic was extremely low and very rare.
Tru2U empowers young girls to face challenges of adolescence
By Joyce Coronel | May 21, 2009 | The Catholic Sun
Decked out in pale pink T-shirts emblazoned with the Tru2U logo, 42 eighth-grade girls from St. Thomas the Apostle listened to Amy Aker tell them how she found her prince.
You could have heard a pin drop.
Aker, an attractive young mother of three, went on to describe how she learned that only God could fulfill all of her needs and be the man of her dreams.
Parents have long worried about the “boy crazy” phase girls go through in the formative years of adolescence. A group of moms from St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic School got together and came up with a way to reach and empower young ladies with a message of faith and purity.
Laura Westfall, a nurse practitioner and mother of an eighth-grade daughter, often sees young female patients who must deal with the unanticipated consequences of poor decision-making.
It was while she was on a sunrise hike and reflecting on her daughter’s upcoming graduation that the idea of a retreat for girls came to her. She turned to six other moms at the school who in a short amount of time were able to organize the retreat, held at Mount Claret May 7.
The day began at 6 a.m. with a team-building activity involving ropes and an obstacle course. Then the girls were off to hear a slate of speakers their mothers had arranged.
They learned about the role nutrition plays from fitness expert Tricia Leach who counseled them to make wise choices about food, but most of all, to know who they were before God.
After asking the girls to rate themselves as daughters and students on a scale from 1 to 10, she surprised them by letting them know that no matter how they saw themselves, God considers each one of them to be a “perfect 10.”

Co. D, 104th N. Y. Infantry
History of Neosho and Wilson Counties Kansas, Published by L. Wallace Duncan, Monitor Printing Co., 1902. Pages 296-297
CHARLES L. DUTCHER—The veterinary practice of the vicinity of St. Paul is ably cared for and represented by Charles L. Dutcher, of this article. He is one of the “old settlers” of St. Paul or “The Mission”, as it was called then, and his livery business is the chief of its kind in this little city.
Mr. Dutcher is an eastern man. He was born in Tioga county, New York, (December 25, 1839) as was his father, Tracey E. Dutcher. His mother was Margaret Shackelton, was a Tioga county lady. The father of our subject was a farmer, a carpenter and a local Methodist Episcopal preacher. He and his wife were the parents of four children, two of whom still survive. In 1845 the wife and mother died, while the father lived till 1875. The latter was married a second time and had a family of six children.
Charles L. Dutcher and his sister Mary J. Fraley, are the surviving children of their mother. Mrs. Fraley resides in Elmira, New York. Mr. Dutcher spent the years from his sixth year to his fifteenth in Bradford county, Pennsylvania. At the latter age he retuned to his native state and county. He was apprenticed about this time to a cabinet and wagon-maker and when he had served his time he worked at the trade till 1860 when he went to Owego, New York, and ran a line of hacks and an ice business till the war of the rebellion came on. He enlisted in July, 1863, in Company D, 104th New York volunteer infantry. He served two years and over and his chief engagement was that of Rappahannock Station, out of which he came without a scratch from a rebel ball. At the close of the war he was discharged, went to New York City, and there in April, 1866, was married. Hen went to work in the Fifth Avenue livery, driving coaches, and remained in that place two years. He changed his business then, going to Towanda, Pa., by request of his father, and there he engaged in the business of contracting and building. He followed this till 1870, when he came to the prairies of Kansas and took a claim in Crawford county. He lived on and was engaged in its improvement for three years, then traded it for a block of ground in Osage Mission, erected a store building and engaged in merchandising. This business he followed some fifteen years and sold his lots and buildings to the Lindel Hotel company and began handling horses, buying and shipping for three years. He then built a large livery barn and stocked it with the best turn-outs that he had, rigs that would compete successfully for business in any city. He opened his livery with a genuine glare that probably surpassed anything of the kind in Neosho county and he has since conducted it with a skill that natural inclination alone can insure. As a “housekeeper” he is strikingly neat and tidy. His premises appear to have just been dressed, at all business hours. Repairing is done when it is first noticed and there is no unkempt and shiftless atmosphere pervading his premises. He has practiced veterinary work for many years and his success teaches that he has a perfect understanding of the ills of horse flesh.
Mr. Dutcher’s wife was, before her marriage, Miss Elizabeth S. Hollenbeck, of Hudson, New York. One child, a son, was born to them. He is Charles Wesley Dutcher, of Sugar City, Colorado.
Mr. Dutcher is a meritorious citizen and a good man for his town. His business is well followed and because of this fact the interests of St. Paul are better conserved. He is liberal and possesses the sentiment of push and progress and when anything is needed for his town he helps to get it.

The People’s Bicentennial Commission formed by democratic socialists Jeremy Rifkin and John Rossen published a Declaration of Economic Independence in 1976 in conjunction with demonstrations and July 4, 1976 rallies in Philadelphia and Washington, D.C.
The declaration identifies corporations as the cause of economic distress in the United States and calls for a decentralized ownership of the means of production.
Rifkin was a relatively young anti-Vietnam War activist and Rossen a former member of the Communist Party from the 1930s-50s. Both took part in the founding of the New American Movement. In 1983 NAM merged with the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee to form the Democratic Socialists of America.
Some excerpts from the declaration:
“The history of the present giant corporations is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having as their direct object an establishment of absolute tyranny over the states.”
“We therefore, the citizens of the United States of America, hereby call for the abolition of these giant institutions of tyranny and the establishment of new economic enterprises, with new laws and safeguards to provide for the equal and democratic participation of all American citizens in the economic decisions that effect the well-being of our families, our communities, and our nation.”
“In furtherance of our joint hopes and aspirations and mindful of the lessons of history, we steadfastly adhere to the general principle that a democratic republic can only exist to the extent that economic decision making is above the exercise by the people and not delegated to a few.”
“Such is the necessity which compels us to act in support of decentralized economic enterprises with ownership and control being shared jointly by the workers in the plants and by the local communities in which they operate, with similar patterns of shared representative control being exercised on a regional and national level to insure the smooth and efficient coordination of all economic operations.
“For the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection, of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.”

The Postcard
A postally unused cartolina postale that was published by A. O. of Florence.
The image portrays a meeting between San Francesco and San Domenico. The work was sculpted by Andrea della Robbia.
Andrea della Robbia
Andrea della Robbia, who was born on the 20th. October 1435, was an Italian Renaissance sculptor whose speciality was ceramics.
Born in Florence, Andrea Robbia was the son of Marco della Robbia, whose brother, Luca della Robbia, popularised the use of glazed terra-cotta for sculpture. Andrea studied under Luca, and became the most important artist of ceramic glaze of the time.
He carried on the production of the enamelled reliefs on a much larger scale than his uncle had ever done; he also extended its application to various architectural uses, such as friezes and to the making of lavabos (washbasins), fountains and large retables (shelves and framed work behind an altar).
The Hospital of San Paolo
Sometimes he omitted the enamel on the face and hands of his figures, especially in those cases where he had treated the heads in a realistic manner; as, for example, in the tympanum relief of the meeting of St. Domenic and St. Francis in the loggia of the Florentine hospital of San Paolo. This design was suggested by a fresco of Fra Angelico's in the cloister of St. Mark's.
The hospital of San Paolo, near Santa Maria Novella, has also a number of fine medallions with reliefs of saints, two of Christ Healing the Sick, and two fine portraits, under which are white plaques inscribed "Dall Anno 1451 all Anno 1495". The first of these dates is the year when the hospital was rebuilt owing to a papal brief sent to the Archbishop of Florence.
Other Works by Andrea della Robbia
One of the most remarkable works by Andrea is the series of medallions with reliefs of the Infant Jesus in white on a blue ground, set on the front of the foundling hospital in Florence. These child-figures are modelled with skill and variety, no two being alike.
Andrea also produced, for guilds and private individuals, a large number of reliefs of the Madonna and Child that were varied with much invention. They are often framed with realistic yet decorative garlands of fruit and flowers painted with coloured enamels, while the main relief is left white.
Arezzo (80 kilometres/50 miles south-east of Florence) possesses a number of enamelled works by Andrea and his sons:
-- A retable in the cathedral with God holding
the Crucified Christ, surrounded by angels,
and below, kneeling figures of San Donato
and San Bernardino.
-- In the chapel of the Campo Santo is a relief
of the Madonna and Child with four saints at
the side.
-- In Santa Maria in Grado is a noble retable
with angels holding a crown over a standing
figure of the Madonna; a number of small
figures of worshippers take refuge in the
folds of the Virgin's mantle, a favourite theme
for sculpture dedicated by guilds or other
corporate bodies.
-- Perhaps the finest collection of works of this
class is at La Verna, not far from Arezzo. The
best of these, three large retables with
representations of the Annunciation, the
Crucifixion, and the Madonna giving her Girdle
to St. Thomas, are probably the work of Andrea
himself, the others being by his sons.
In 1489 Andrea made a relief of the Virgin and two Angels, now over the archive-room door in the Florentine Opera del Duomo; for this he was paid twenty gold florins.
In the same year he modelled the tympanum relief over a door of Prato cathedral, with a half length figure of the Madonna between St. Stephen and St. Lawrence, surrounded by a frame of angels' heads. In 1491 he was still working at Prato, where many of his best reliefs still exist.
A bust of St. Lino exists over the side door of Volterra Cathedral, which is attributed to Andrea. Other late works of known date are a magnificent bust of the Protonotary Almadiano, made in 1510 for the church of San Giovanni de' Fiorentini at Viterbo, and a medallion of the Virgin in Glory, surrounded by angels, made in 1505 for Pistoia cathedral.
The latest work attributed to Andrea, though apparently only a workshop production of 1515, is a relief representing the Adoration of the Magi, made for a little church, St. Maria, in Pian di Mugnone, near Florence.
His workshop was carried on by his son Giovanni della Robbia after his death on the 4th. August 1525.

Taboo
By Michael Vance
As a little boy, when I broke the rules, mother would spank my hand and say, “That’s a No No!” I quickly learned what was taboo. As editors and publishers, Steve Bissette and Nancy O’Connor have broken rules, and my mother would spank more than their hands. Their new horror anthology, “Taboo”, is meant to shock, to disgust, and trigger shudders. In this case, accomplishing two of these three goals isn’t good.
“Taboo” suffers from the same weaknesses that plague every prose anthology, stories that are uneven in quality. A second flaw is that each story is reaching for a different response, a special kind of horror. There’s no single climax, and a reader is left with a vague and jumbled catharsis, especially when the book is read at a single setting. And, finally, readers need full and believable men and women. That’s an almost impossible task within the limited space of a comics short story.
The visual short stories in this collection range from unintelligible (“Catus Water” by Peter Grimes) to excellent. The best of this volume must include “A Touch of Vinyl” by Veitch and Weiner, and “From Hell” by Moore and Campbell.
I spent too much energy trying to understand what was happening in “Catus Water” to feel any sense of suspense or suspension of disbelief. Characterization is non-existant.
The strength of “A Touch of Vinyl” lies in its twisted, black humor as a man’s obsession with a vinyl doll turns into insanity. The power of “From Hell” is its wealth of detail and its luck at being long enough to build suspense and characterization. It’s the only serialized piece in “Taboo”.
Certainly not for the squeamish, “Taboo” is best suited for lovers of horror who can overlook the flaws of their beloved.
“Taboo” #3/$9.95, 128 pages/published by spiderbaby Grafix/available in comics stores.
