Last week's look forward to this year mentioned that superheroes aren't going away. Superhero works may become the new Western because the new genre doesn't carry the historical problems while still providing for morality plays. Right now, though, the success of superhero works is mainly through adaptations of existing characters and titles. Marvel Comics and DC Comics have seen success with the transition of their works to movies and television.
Naturally, the success of superhero movies and TV series are creating a backlash. Part of it is the source – comic books have been considered for children and teenagers, not something an adult would be caught reading, works like Watchmen and Maus notwithstanding. Another part of it are two decades, the Eighties and the Ninties, when original works were more popular than adaptations, unlike the rest of the history of film[http://psychodrivein.com/lost-in-translation-history-of-adaptations-wrapping-up/].
Is it possible to create an original superhero TV series not based on an existing character or setting? There have been attempts in the past. Mutant X lasted three seasons in syndication and ended after the its studio was sold, though the series was originally meant to tie in with Marvel's X-Men until Fox sued. Misfits of Science ran one season in the mid-Eighties. Heroes survived four seasons despite a writer's strike and network interference. The track record isn't great for original superhero works, but the audience didn't exist then like it does now.
Television may be the better medium to attempt an original superhero work. Movie studios are risk adverse and the budget to do a superhero movie well may be too high for an unknown work. No one wants to be responsible for a $150 million superbomb. Television is more competitive today, so risks need to be taken just to get viewers. What might not be popular in theatres could garner attention on the small screen; the admission cost is lower with the biggest investment being time, not money. Television also allows for viewing on the viewer's schedule, thanks to time shifting through DVRs/PVRs and, going old school, VCRs.
They key to succeed with an original superhero work is to embrace the tropes. The colourful costumes, the obvious heroes and villains, the morality, everything found in the comics need to be taken seriously, even if the situation is bizarre. The DC television series have had success because the characters were treated seriously. A man returning home to clean up his city, a teenager whose original mission was over by the time she reached Earth, and a forensics analyst trying to clear his father's name are solid ground to build from, and Arrow, Supergirl, and The Flash all did that successfully.
The next catch, though, is to not be just superheroes. DC's television universe, known as the Arrowverse after the first series to air, and Marvel's cinematic universe aren't just superhero stories. Arrow includes both family and crime drama. Supergirl sees Kara adjusting after getting to Earth too late to raise her cousin while dealing with a demanding boss and helping her adopted sister. Ant-Man is a superhero heist movie. Iron Man is a superhero techno-thriller. Captain America: The First Avenger was a superhero pulp war story while its sequel, Captain America: The Winter Soldier is a superhero political thriller. Even the original movie The Incredibles is a superhero family drama crossed with a spy thriller. Pure superheroics can happen – look at The Avengers and Justice League – but an original work will needs its own spin on superheroes.
Television does long form dramas well. Character development needs time, something that a two hour film just doesn't have. A new superhero character can be introduced, with personality and abilities laid out over the course of a few episodes. Too slow will lose viewers, though, but that's true whatever the genre. The goal is to present a character who is a superhero. Marvel's approach to heroes may work well here; the characters have powers, but they aren't useful in dealing with the more serious problems in their day-to-day life. Peter Parker may have spider-based powers, but they haven't helped him deal with school, job, or family.
The series' world can be introduced to the audience over time. There's no need to go into the history of supers in the first ten minutes of the first episode. Details can be filled in, from a TV in the background mentioning a hero in a different city to a character, main or supporting, making a mention. Building that world, though, needs to be done before the series starts. The world of the new superhero needs to make sense to the viewers, especially when asking them to suspend their disbelief on how physics works in the series. How are supers treated? Will the superhero character needs a secret ID and how will he or she maintain it? Who are the rest of the cast? Even DC's solo heroes on television have an extensive supporting cast backing them.
For film, the big problem is getting everything packed into a two hour time span. An origins film could work, but that often means that everything else will get overshadowered as the character becomes a superhero. Smallville spent ten seasons showing how Clark Kent became Superman; movies don't have that luxury. Audiences will be showing up to see superheroic action, unless the marketing can convey properly what the movie is about. Film also has the potential for a larger budget, allowing for cutting edge special effects, even with the likelihood of an original superhero movie having a lower budget due to risk aversion. It's probably best to get the actual origins – how the character became a superhero – out of the way early but have the repercussions of them last through the film. If the origins are interesting, as seen in Deadpool, Captain America: The First Avenger, and Iron Man, then make them the focus of the movie. The goal is to tell a story that will keep audiences in their seats.
One problem that does occur in comics and is starting to occur with the both Marvel and DC's cinematic universes is continuity lockout, where readers need to be familiar with the entire output of a company to understand what's happening. DC's Arrowverse have had three crossover events where the casts of Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, and Legends of Tomorrow appear on an episode of each series in an interconnected storyline. If a viewer somehow wasn't aware of the other series, the new characters would be a mystery, even if the episode gave enough detail to allow the view to get through to the end. Continuity lockout can happen even if there is just one series if the show lasts long enough. Supernatural uses a "Previously On" segment to get viewers up to speed with what's needed for the upcoming episode, but even there, a new viewer jumping on in season 10 may not be aware of what happened to Sam and Dean's mother, detailed in season 1.
Superheroes aren't going away any time soon. Adaptations of superhero comics will continue to hit television and movie theatres. There is room for an original superhero work in those media, but it will take effort to make the work successful. Just following on the coattails of the leaders won't draw an audience. The new work, movie or TV series, needs to stand on its own. It'll take work, but it is possible.

And yet another book is out! In this case it's my Superheroes and Worldbuilding book. I'm continuing my mini-worldbuilding books with one on Superheroes (and it mostly focuses specifically on heroes – villains may be forthcoming). So if you're thinking about a setting with capes and heroics, give it a check!
-Steven Savage
As the decades progress with the History of Adaptations, the type of movie that is popular is changing. Biblical epics gave way to musicals, then biblical remakes, then modern thrillers. Not seen in the most popular list are Westerns*, despite them being a quarter of Hollywood's output , from feature films to serials to television, plus radio series. The Western is a very American genre, celebrating the expansion of the US into an unknown frontier. The original Star Trek was marketed as "Wagon Train to the stars" to get the concept of the show through to executives. In the 1966-67 television season, when Star Trek first aired, there were eighteen Westerns aired on the three TV networks. Gunsmoke still holds the record for the longest running television drama, beating Law & Order in number of episodes, and has its roots in radio before airing on TV in 1955.
Westerns lost popularity in the Seventies. The Vietnam War had American questioning their country and its myths. Blazing Saddles, released in 1974, took the tropes of Westerns and skewered them with parody, much like how Airplane killed the airplane disaster film popular in the Seventies. Heaven's Gate, released in 1980 and based loosely on the Johnson County War of 1889-1893, may have been the final nail in the coffin along with ending the New Hollywood era of the auteur director. Since then, Westerns have been made, but not in the same numbers as before.
Police procedurals took over the niche Westerns had. There is a similarity between the two genres. A lawman protecting the community against the black hats that threaten it is a common plot in Westerns. That same plot is the bread-and-butter of the police procedural. Dragnet, first appearing on radio in 1949 and television in 1951, set the tropes for the genre. Jack Webb, the creator of Dragnet, used the same approach with Emergency, a fire department procedural focused on paramedics in Los Angeles. The police procedural took over the Western's place on television schedules, with series like Hawaii Five-0 in the Seventies, Miami Vice in the Eighties, and the Law & Order franchise through the Nineties to the new millennium.
Today, though, a new mythos has emerged, building on ideas in both Westerns and police procedurals. The superhero, while around since the age of the pulps and mystery men, has become a dominant force. Superman has appeared on radio, in live-action television and movies, and in animated series. Batman has almost kept pace, with no radio show featuring the character but appearing in the Superman radio series. Between June 2015 and 2020, there are fifty-one planned superhero movies, plus several TV series. While nowhere near the number of Westerns during that genre's peak, the amount of money being put into developing these fifty-one movies is far beyond what Hollywood invested in oaters.
Superheroes, like Westerns, are uniquely American**. Unlike Westerns, superheroes aren't based on historical figures, allowing the characters to remain bigger than life without the worry of an indiscretion being discovered by historians. However, like some Westerns, superheroes are vigilantes keeping communities safe from villains who would otherwise be untouchable. Batman touches on both the Western and the police procedural, touching on ideas in The Lone Ranger as someone outside the law working to enforce it and being an investigator, as seen in numerous police procedurals and detective stories. Marvel's The Avengers can be seen as similar to movies like The Seven Samurai and its Hollywood version, The Magnificent Seven, with a number of heroes being brought together to fight off a threat.
While people may believe that the superhero bubble will pop, what needs to be kept in mind is that Westerns, as a genre, lasted decades with higher levels of saturation. Police procedurals are still around. While NBC cancelled Law & Order through an ill-advised move, its spin-off, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, first appearing in 1999, is still on the air. CBS has its own police procedural franchise in CSI: Crime Scene Investiation, starting in 2000, and still going with CSI: Cyber. Superhero media outside comics may continue for some time.
The issue that is occurring, as the History of Adaptations project will examine in greater detail, is that superheroes started in a medium considered to be for children. Comics, despite the strides made in appealing to adults, are still seen as being for kids. Westerns, while at times family fare, still could be seen by the entire family, again with exceptions. Police procedurals are definitely aimed at adults, with series aimed at a younger audience tweaked to avoid adult situations. Supers, though, still have the public image as being something aimed at children and teenagers and, thus, not to be taken seriously. The same issue exists for Young Adult novels; superheroes, though, are a visual medium and aren't seen as being as literary.
That said, superheroes present a new American mythology, one that is still being created while building on the myths and legends of history. There is potential within the genre. Marvel Studios, through its Avengers Initiative series of movies, is showing that supers can be added to any number of genres, from technothriller to space opera, to create something new. There may be a bubble, but it's not ready to deflate yet.
* With the exception of The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid in the Sixties.
** As uniquely American as possible when half the creators of the first superhero, Superman, was Canadian. Joe Shuster hailed from Toronto, Ontario, and elements of that city can be seen in Metropolis.

Netflix is our in-depth, real-world example to get deep insights into one of the most powerful business models of our time: the subscription business model with its crucial metrics, accounting, microeconomic and strategy knowledge
Netflix Business Model Canvas
I have covered Netflix in great detail as one of the champions of the subscription business model. Our journey has covered the most important elements of the Subscription Business Model which are:
Crucial accounting metrics: Contribution Margin, Free Cash Flows
Crucial microeconomic metrics: Customer Lifetime Value/Customer Acquisition Costs, Economies of Scale, Diseconomies of Scale
Business Management: the Flywheel & the importance of the investment cycle
Customer Value Proposition: 12 Ways to make the Subscription Business Model work
Strategy: business model canvas (this article)
Join me to get a comprehensive overview of Netflix's business model using the popular strategy tool of the business model canvas
Netflix Business Model: is the Flywheel humming or coming off?
This article is bringing the previously described elements of the business model together into the Flywheel model. You will see that the investment cycle consisting of
(1) Content;
(2) Technology; and
(3) Marketing
is the linchpin that in relation to the competitor moves will determine Netflix's trajectory…
Gain in-depth, real-world insights into Netflix's business model now (btw, you can easily adapt the Flywheel concept on your own innovation idea and I'm showing how)…
Crucial Metrics: Free Cash Flow in-depth real-world example Netflix
Cash flows are important events in your business and free cash flow is a great metric that Netflix and other innovators pay great attention to:
"We believe free cash flow is an important liquidity metric because it measures, during a given period, the amount of cash generated that is available to repay debt obligations, make investments and for certain other activities or the amount of cash used in operations, including investments in global streaming content." (Netflix, annual report 2018)
Free cash flow is an important metric in any innovator's finances as we are often using cash (typically from outside sources) to create assets and operate our business until it generates sufficient profits to hold itself. If you look at Netflix, you will see that pattern supercharged. Here are the free (hugely negative, -$7 billion) cash flows of the recent years which show outside funds being injected into the business to invest in technology and content:
Today you will learn:
– How to calculate free cash flows
– Asset creation via capex
– Depreciation and amortisation
– Working capital as a liquidity measure
– External funding sources
Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC), Customer Lifetime Value (CLV) or (LTV): Learn from Netflix
We are continuing our mini-series of crucial metrics for growth companies using Netflix as an in-depth real-world example. Last time, I covered the crucial metric Contribution Margin that guides Netflix' decision making on content investment on a macro level.
Today, we are going to look at a number of metrics that are being used in the context of assessing companies' growth potential:
CAC: Customer Acquisition Cost
CLV (or LTV): Customer LifeTime Value
ARPU: Average Revenue per User
The important ratio of LTV/CAC
Profit per user
These metrics are helpful in the context of repeat users within the subscription business model but also the platform business model (e.g. Uber, Airbnb, TripAdvisor, Facebook, etc) which I have covered in extensive detail under those links.

Ex-Sen. Don Balfour: Georgia's $100K senator
Nov. 13, 2013 — Don Balfour was suspended from the Georgia Senate today over expense account discrepancies first reported by Atlanta Unfiltered in February 2012. Our examination of the senator's 2011 expense account found Balfour had claimed per diem and mileage reimbursements for several days when he was out of state and therefore ineligible for them. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution later dug up similar examples from prior years.
The Senate Ethics Committee order Balfour to pay a $5,000 fine over the discrepancies, and a Fulton County grand jury indicted him in September for 18 counts of making false expense claims. Records show Balfour's campaign committee last year paid nearly $80,000 in legal fees to defend him in those cases.
Click here to read our original report on Balfour's expenses and here to see our Transparency Profile of Balfour posted a few days later.
Ethics reform for dummies, Part 1: Lobbyist gifts
March 26, 2013 — To Georgia legislators: As you struggle toward a compromise on ethics "reform," here are five suggestions that would REALLY help to restore Georgians' faith in government.
1) Limit lobbyist gifts to $25 per day, with a limit of four per year. That allows them to buy you a meal and a beer, but not the bottles of wine that really drive up the cost up of these $100 meals. And no gifts for spouses. Pay for those yourselves. Suck it up.
Ga. at risk for locking up runaways, truants
They are runaways, truants, curfew violators, underage smokers and drinkers. They're called status offenders because their actions are only an issue due to their status as juveniles; if an adult did the same thing, it wouldn't be a crime. Now, a report commissioned by the Governor's Office for Children and Families warns that Georgia could lose $2 million a year in federal funding if it continues locking them up at current rates.
Ga. goes commando, leaves interstate compact for juveniles
Georgia's juvenile court judges face a new, unprecedented set of challenges that could separate kids from their parents and make the state an "asylum" for runaway delinquents. As of Friday, Georgia will have no way to track down juvenile offenders who run away to avoid arrest or to return other states' offenders who've fled to Georgia.
Lawmakers leave ethics panel to run on fumes
Georgia legislators last week took back an extra $30,000 budgeted to enforce ethics laws in 2012, leaving the State Campaign Finance Commission yet again to do more paper-shuffling and less investigating. "We really only have time to go after the most egregious of cases," executive secretary Stacey Kalberman said.
Foes of ethics enforcement cheer latest legislative 'reforms'
Picture a few Georgia legislators in a karaoke bar, swaying back and forth and belting out the Stone's "Under My Thumb." Or maybe a little Cee Lo. That should give you a good sense of the message that lawmakers sent last week to the State Campaign Finance Commission. Gov. Nathan Deal has already signed an ethics bill that gives the commission more work and more expenses and rebuffs a bid to restore some of its power.
Incumbents thrive by donating their dollars
The top three Republicans in the Georgia House — all now going or gone from their seats — held on to power in part by giving $1.4 million since 2005 to other GOP candidates and causes. Then scandal brought down Speaker Glenn Richardson. Several dozen Georgia legislators from both parties want to cap donations from one candidate to another, but they may have an uphill battle.
Lobbyists treat lawmakers' spouses, don't always report it
Each year, lobbyists organize and pay for lunches at hot spots like The 191 Club, day trips and other events – some costing thousands of dollars — to entertain the spouses of Georgia legislators. No one knows the total price tag. Or, at least, the ones who know aren't always saying.
Loophole lets legislators pocket $343K despite session ban
Georgia legislators cannot accept campaign contributions while they are in session. Except when they can. Four lawmakers running for Congress collected more than $343,000 in campaign funds between them while the General Assembly was in session this year, federal campaign filings show. Rep. Clay Cox, seeking the seat being vacated by Congressman John Linder, led the pack with $114,712.
21 legislators took $5K+ in freebies from lobbyists
Twenty-one Georgia legislators accepted gifts valued at $5,000 or more from lobbyists last year. Led by Senate majority leader Chip Rogers, the 21 legislators accounted for 10 percent of the $1.5 million in lobbyist handouts last year. We're talking gift baskets, food and drink, golf, sports and concert tickets, lodging and airfare. These are the lawmakers who can't say no.
Gift ban would hit government lobbyists hardest
Which lobbyists would be hit hardest by a proposed ban on $100-plus gifts to Georgia legislators? Hint: Lobbyist Dene Herbert Sheheane and the others hand out a lot of tickets to ballgames.
Four more legislators file 2008 financial disclosures — 5 months late
Better late than never: Four Georgia legislators, including Rep. Sheila Jones of Atlanta, filed personal financial disclosures last week for 2008. Some, we're told, even mentioned Atlanta Unfiltered when they made sure the state received their reports. That leaves 10 Democrats who still haven't filed. UP NEXT: We'll take a closer look at where the money's flowing in the Legislature, and to whom. One hint: It ain't to the Democrats.

13th South Asian Games
Published On: December 3, 2019 11:30 AM NPT By: DHAN BASNET
POKHARA, Dec 3: Nepal's Soni Gurung has won first gold in women's sprint during the 13th South Asian Games (SAG) Triathlon event held in Pokhara on Monday. India's Adarsha MN Sinamol achieved the same feat in men's category.
India went on to win two silver and a bronze in the event whereas Nepal could add a bronze to the medal tally.
Gurung took 1 hour 13 minutes 45 seconds to complete the sprint. India's Sarojini Devi Thoudam took 1 hour 14 minutes to finish second followed by her fellow national Praganya Mohan, who took 1 hour 14 minutes 57 seconds to satisfy with bronze.
India's Sinamol completed the sprint in 1 hour 2 minutes 31 seconds to grab the gold followed by Bishworjit Saikhom at second place who took 1 hour 2 minutes 59 seconds. Likewise, Nepal's Basant Tharu took 1 hour 3 minutes 6 seconds to secure bronze, nation's second medal on the day in Triathlon.
However, Nepal's triathlon head coach Yuvraj Silwal was not satisfied with Nepal's performances in the event. He believed athletes could have achieved the same feat in better duration.
"I am happy for gold but India remains our main rival. We aspire to win two golds in women's category and a gold in mix-relay. Similarly, we are assured to win a silver in men's category. We also expect a gold in duathlon," said Silwal.
Under triathlon, 750 meters of swimming, 20 kilometers of cycling and 5 kilometers of running were held in Pokhara on Monday.
The three-day event boasts 26 athletes from Nepal, India and Sri Lanka. Duathlon for men and women will be held on Tuesday. Five kilometers of running, 20 kilometers of cycling and 2.5 kilometers of running have been allocated for duathlon.
In mix-relay triathlon set to be held on Wednesday, 300 meters of swimming, 6 kilometers of cycling and 2.5 kilometers of running have been allocated.
This is Nepal's second participation in the sports category. Earlier, in the 12th edition of the sports extravaganza, Nepal had won a silver in mix-relay and a bronze in women's sprint.

Happy feet: Emperor Penguins from Antarctica each express their true love with a special heartsong of their own that expresses their very being. However, the misfit Mumble cannot sing. Instead he has an extraordinary talent to tap dance with almost magical energy and expression. Nevertheless, the leadership of the colony fearfully blames the young penguin's unorthodox ways for the lean fishing that threatens them all. Defiant in the face of unjust rejection, Mumble and his true friends set out to find the true cause of the famine. Through the friends trials and perils, Mumble learns many things about his frozen world, not the least of which being that his toe tapping talent may be what he needs to save his people.
Happy feet two: Mumble is back--and everybody's favorite tap-dancing penguin noe has a son names Erik! Mumble was born to dance, but little Erik just isn't feelin' the beat. Int his epic sequel to the Academy award winning Happy Feet, Erik must discover what his own "thing" is in a world of singing and dancing choices. When the entire nation of Emperor Penguins is threatened, trapped by an enormous iceberg, Antarctic creatures big and small must get to work together to rescue them ... Only then does Erik find his own groove.

Alberto Giacometti
Bronze sculptor 1901 - 1966
Alberto Giacometti was born in Borgonovo, Switzerland, on October 10 1901. The first of four children born to Giovanni Giacometti, a post-Impressionist painter, and Annetta Giacometti-Stampa, whose family was among the area's most prominent land owners, Alberto began his artistic life sending pencil and crayon drawings to his godfather Amiet; many of which are still around today. In the years that followed, he experimented with oils and still-lifes, often using his siblings as models.
Following this, he enrolled at the Ecole des Arts Industriels in Geneva and studied painting, sculpture and drawing under the tutelage of Pointillist painter David Estoppey and sculptor Maurice Sarkissoff. After travelling to Italy with his father in 1920 and viewing a variety of paintings from some of the biggest names in painting at the time, he moved to Paris and enrolled in several art classes before being attracted to cubism and primitive art. This change in style prompted him to exhibit his first bronze sculpture, the 'Spoon Woman', at the Paris Salon des Tuileries in 1926.
By the 1930s, Giacometti had been warmly welcomed into Surrealist circles and became close to some of the leading sculptors of the time, including Max Ernst, Joan Miro and Andre Masson. He also published work in 'Documents', a periodical written by Georges Bataille, who was putting forward a version of Surrealism that opposed that of the movement's founder, Andre Breton. Many critics now believe that Bataille's ideas may have been important in inspiring some of Giacometti's Surrealist pieces, including the 'Suspended Ball' of 1930.
In June 1940, Giacometti and his brother Diego fled Paris by bicycle, just missing an encounter with the invading German Wehrmacht; a day later they witnessed the city's bombardment from afar. He remained in France during this time and forged relationships with Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre, who would later influence his figurative work.
As his style continued to mature into the 1950s and 60s, Giacometti's bronze figures grew larger and even more complex, ranging from Woman of Venice II at nearly four feet tall to Tall Woman II, standing at close to nearly nine feet tall! By the 1960s, Giacometti was internationally famous, but his health was deteriorating, having been plagued by circulatory and heart problems. Despite this, he continued to work and in his final weeks, he was working on a bronze bust and painting of Elie Lotar, a French photographer and close friend. Sadly, on the evening of January 11, 1966, he died of complications of pericarditis.

But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled ... - That is, the Scriptures which foretold of his dying for the world.
In some way that must be accomplished, and the time had come when, having finished the work which the Father gave him to do, it was proper that he should submit to death. This was said, doubtless, to comfort his disciples; to show them that his death was not a matter of surprise or disappointment to him; and that they, therefore, should not be offended and forsake him.
Matthew 26:54 Parallel Commentaries
LibraryJanuary 3. "Watch and Pray" (Matt. xxvi. 41).
"Watch and pray" (Matt. xxvi. 41). We need to watch for prayers as well as for the answers to our prayers. It needs as much wisdom to pray rightly as it does faith to receive the answers to our prayers. We met a friend the other day, who had been in years of darkness because God had failed to answer certain prayers, and the result had been a state bordering on infidelity. A very few moments were sufficient to convince this friend that these prayers had been entirely unauthorized, and that God had …

Discussion in 'Firearm Accessories & Gear' started by rookie713, Sep 13, 2012.
Anyone use the Earpro? And are they good I don't want a big pair of head phones on my head
They work fantastically. My dad uses them for work so we tried them at the range...that's all we will wear anymore. Super comfy and you can still hear with them in. they have little plugs to block out more sound. I shoot with one plugged and the other (the left since its not right by the gun) open so I can still here. I HIGHLY recommend them.
Thanks that's good to know cause I don't like the big ear muff
I dont either. They are bulky and cumbersome. And frankly...look a little dorky
The earpro are only good for doubling ear protection, they do not provide enough protection by themselves. You'll need those dorky ear muffs if you care about your hearing.
I'll second that. I use my EP3's when I'm mowing. Works great for that.
At the range I use a dorky set of electronic muffs.
I lost too much of my hearing during my "car audio phase" to lose any more.
You might not be using them right... Theu do block out enough sound. Its been proven in tests. Also...dunno if you've ever seen this show called top shot...but they focus on safety and only let people use approved protective equipment. And I've seen numerous competitors using sonic defenders as their ear protection. Best bet tho...buy a pair and try em out and see how you feel about them. They are $10-15. In my opinion...someone who uses them every time I shoot...they are perfectly safe
Oh I am using them right, 24NRR even with the most perfect fit does not provide enough isolation in an indoor gun range. Hearing loss doesn't happen overnight when using some sort of protection, but the day you notice it is the day it's too late. A buddy of mine at the range over the years lost his hearing while thinking that he was wearing enough protection.

London emergency services 'blues brothers' paired up on front line to tackle Covid-19
PUBLISHED: 07:00 27 May 2020 | UPDATED: 08:24 29 May 2020
CJ Clarke/LAS
London Ambulance Service paramedic Jack Binder and his London Fire Brigade brother Tom have been working together responding to those in need across the capital as part of a new blue light partnership to help boost the ambulance service's response to Covid-19.
The new partnership across the two emergency services has helped the ambulance service respond to the demand of the crisis with up to 300 staff from London Fire Brigade helping drive ambulances and assist medics as directed.
The blue light brothers have worked on several shifts together – mainly in Ilford – since Tom started his secondment with the ambulance service a month ago.
Tom, 28, said: "I really wanted to help make a difference during this global pandemic and help to take pressure off the ambulance service. After hearing first-hand from Jack and listening to what he does on a day-to-day basis I didn't want to turn this chance down."
Jack, 27, added: "It has been great working so closely with Tom and responding to patients together. Though not sure he enjoys taking instructions from his younger brother!
You may also want to watch:
"It's a very unique experience and I don't think anyone could have predicted this would happen a few months ago."
Growing up the pair were always inseparable. With Jack just a year younger than Tom, they are often mistaken for twins at work.
Joining the London emergency services came quite naturally to the brothers.
Tom said: "Our grandparents were both in the Metropolitan Police and our dad is a retired group commander in the brigade.
"Hearing all the stories and jobs that they would go to, I could see no other career option growing up. It's all I ever wanted to do."
Since being seconded to London Ambulance Service, Tom has responded to a variety of jobs across the capital, saying: "I have been to everything from attending to a new born baby to suspected strokes and cardiac arrest patients."
Jack said: "I'm really proud of my brother. Not just with his willingness to help during this crisis but also with everything he has done at London Fire Brigade. He often rings me after his shifts and speaks with so much enthusiasm for everything he is doing at London Ambulance Service."

NBA Finals Odds: Warriors Heavy Favorites Over Raptors
The Warriors are favored to capture their third straight NBA championship.
The 2019 NBA Finals are officially set and, perhaps unsurprisingly, bettors are expecting the defending champions to retain their crown.
The Golden State Warriors opened at -275 to win the Finals, per Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook, while the Toronto Raptors were at +225.
Since then, early money has gone in favor of the Warriors. As of Sunday afternoon, Golden State is now -300. The Raptors' odds are up to +240.
Additionally, odds for the opening game of the series are officially out.
Despite being favored to win the title, the Warriors are one-point underdogs in Game 1.
Game 1 is scheduled for Thursday, May 30. Tip from Scotiabank Arena in Toronto is set for 9 p.m. ET.

I look at him like Powell - an elite skill set but still very deficient making him a good role player whether a starter or not.
And in regards to Naz Mitrou Long - he has not yet committed to play for Greece (nor Canada for that matter). He is still eligible to play for either but I believe he is holding out until he best figures out where his career takes him. He would be a naturalized player for Greece as well and I'm not sure they want to burn that on him (currently Dorsey is their target).
He has been invited to Team Canada training camps in the past and I think attended a couple but never been rostered or played for Canada in a senior FIBA event. He has been contacted by the Greek federation but has yet to join them in any capacity.
Brazdeikis in the other hand has declared publicly he intends to play for Lithuania but as he is not citizen and has played for Canada after the age 17 thus locking him to Canada, much needs to happen for him to play for Lithuania.
Actually, the Greek Federation President and also the vice president, both recently stated that Mitrou-Long did indeed commit to Greece and has already joined the national program.
Whether or not he plays at the qualifiers is a different matter. But he has in fact joined the Greek national program.
Greek NT coach Rick Pitino seems to like Dorsey. But that doesn't mean places can't open up in the future. Because Dorsey has been awful so far every time he played with Greece. And he was nothing more than just average (if even that good) this season in EuroLeague. And that was with him playing for a Greek coach that was going out of his way to help him. There is definitely no guarantee at all that Dorsey has any future with Greece's national team, based on his performances so far.
For example, for me personally, I'd rather have young Greek guards like Giannoulis Larentzakis or Lefteris Bochoridis on the national team than Dorsey right now. Honestly, if not for the team having an American head coach at the moment, Dorsey certainly wouldn't have any set place in the team at all. In terms of guys counting as Greece's naturalized players under FIBA's age 14 rule, or whatever it is - Dorsey isn't even the first choice. Michael Bramos gets picked first to the training camp every summer over Dorsey, but he keeps refusing to play, claiming that he's too tired to play with the national team anymore. But that should give you an idea of where Dorsey's standing is at the moment. Zach Auguste might also be ahead of Dorsey in that category, based on how he plays with Panathinaikos this season.
So if Mitrou-Long was good enough, he could definitely replace Dorsey / Zach Auguste for the national team. The whole issue with Mitrou-Long and Greece's national team is just is he good enough. If he wants to play for Greece, he can't just be a G-League player. But right now it's really not related to Dorsey, because so far Dorsey is just another player for EuroLeague level.
