I am a Ravenclaw…Just thought you should know.
Interestingly enough I took the quiz on the Pottermore site just yesterday… was expecting Ravenclaw but got Slytherin (and Thunderbird)

MIDNIGHTER AND APOLLO RETURN IN NEW MINISERIES FROM ORLANDO AND BLANCO THIS FALL
… ok. finally something from Rebirth that I’m genuinely excited about. (I feel like the odd one out, since nothing about Rebirth has really interested me at all, and some things about it has actually pissed me off) A little disappointed it’s only a mini, but at last they’re not getting swept under the rug.

Neil Gaiman Delves Deep Into Norse Myths for New Book
Mr. Gaiman’s forthcoming book “Norse Mythology,” which Norton will publish next February, is an almost novelistic retelling of famous myths about the gods of Asgard. The book will explore the nine Norse worlds, which are populated by elves, fire demons, the Vanir gods, humans, dwarves, giants and the dead. There are ice giants and elves, familiar deities like Thor, Odin (the wise and occasionally vengeful highest god) and Loki (the giant trickster), and a frightening doomsday scenario, Ragnarok, where the gods fight a fire giant with a flaming sword in an apocalyptic, world-ending battle.
Mr. Gaiman has often drawn on the Norse myths in his own fantasy writing. His hallucinatory fantasy novel “American Gods” features a character based on Odin. In his children’s book “Odd and the Frost Giants,” a young boy encounters a fox, an eagle and a bear who turn out to be Loki, Odin and Thor.
“Those Norse tales have accompanied me through pretty much everything I’ve done,” he said. “They ran like a vein of silver through Sandman, they were the bedrock of American Gods.
This is true. This is the next book.
ooooohhhhh…..

Near-perfect wings from dinosaur times discovered in amber
A pair of wings found encased in amber suggest that the plumage of modern birds has remained almost unchanged from some of their dinosaur-era ancestors. X-ray scans indicate that the fossilized wings — found in northern Myanmar — likely belonged to juvenile creatures, and contain skin, muscle, and claws, as well as various layers of feathers, arranged in a markedly similar fashion to those of birds.

This happened while i was watching TV. Loki being all presidential. I liked it. I dunno if i will do it all nice with the computer or not. Maybe.
I like his look in vote Loki, cus waistcoats are sexy. I made his hair a little long, to make up for the tragic loss of Thor’s hair. I can not deal with short haired Asgardians, it’s just wrong.
