POWER AND ABILITIES

Captain America has no superhuman powers, although as a result of the Super-Soldier serum and vita-ray treatment, he is transformed from a frail young man into a "perfect" specimen of human development and conditioning. Captain America's strength, endurance, agility, speed, reflexes, durability and healing are at the highest limits of natural human potential. It has been established that Rogers' body regularly regenerates the super-soldier serum; it does not wear off.

The formula enhances all of his metabolic functions and prevents the build-up of fatigue poisons in his muscles, giving him endurance far in excess of an ordinary human being. This accounts for many of his extraordinary feats, including bench pressing 1100 pounds (500kg) and running a mile (1.6 km) in little more than a minute. Furthermore, his enhancements are the reason why he was able to survive being frozen in suspended animation for decades. Rogers is also unable to become intoxicated by alcohol and is immune to many diseases.
Mentally, Rogers' battle experience and training make him an expert tactician and an excellent field commander, with his teammates frequently deferring to his orders in battle. Rogers' reflexes and senses are also extraordinarily keen. He is a master of multiple martial arts. Years of practice with his indestructible shield make him able to aim and throw it with almost unerring accuracy. His skill with hisshield is such that he can attack multiple targets in succession with a single throw or even cause a boomerang-like return from a throw to attack an enemy from behind. In the comics, he is regarded by other skilled fighters as one of the best hand-to-hand combatants in the Marvel Universe

Cheap Auto Insurance

I attended a friend’s party yesterday when something took my attention. While I am in my friend’s house terrace, leaning on the balusters, I saw these cars parked in the driveway. Sounds weird but it makes me, somehow, jealous to whoever owned that car. The cars look so expensive and properly cared by its owner. I am always dreaming to have a car. Well, I once had a car but we sold it already but if ever I will buy a new car. I’ll promise myself to take care of it and do the best that I can to maintain its beauty. Then, I will look any cheap auto insurance online so my car and my self are protected and secure and I have nothing to worry if a traffic accident will happen and damage my car badly. I heard from a friend that there are site that offers instant auto insurance quotes which is very interesting. Now this makes me realize that I should better start saving money so I can buy a new car already.

THE WASP

The Wasp is a founding member of the Marvel Comics superhero team, The Avengers. The original character to bear that name was Janet van Dyne. Created in 1963 by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, she was the love interest of Henry Pym — the hero variously known as Ant-Man, Giant-Man, Goliath, and Yellowjacket. After her 2008 death, the grieving Pym adopted "the Wasp" as his own code-name.Both versions have had the ability to shrink to a height of perhaps several centimeters, fly by means of insectoid wings (which appear only at small size), and fire energy blasts.

Making use of sub-atomic Pym particles, the Wasp possesses the power to alter her physical size, causing her body's mass to be shunted to or gained from an alternate dimension known as Kosmos. She is able to shrink to a minimum of half an inch or grow to a maximum of several hundred feet. Smaller or larger sizes are possible but the exertion begins to put a strain on her body. Initially, these abilities stemmed from use of a Pym particle gas released from special capsules. Over time, however, her body has absorbed enough particles to allow her to alter her size at will.

At miniature size, her strength level increases as her body's mass is compacted. At giant size, her strength and endurance increase geometrically with her height, reaching superhuman levels. Despite the advantages of giant size, Janet usually prefers to remain the diminutive Wasp, calling on her growth power only in times of extreme emergency.

At miniature size, the Wasp grows a pair of translucent insect wings from her back, a result of genetic modifications provided by Hank Pym. These grant her the power of flight, at speeds up to 40 mph (64 km/h).

The Wasp is able to harness and augment her body's natural bio-electric energy, releasing it from her hands in powerful electrical bursts, which she calls her "stinger blasts" or "wasp's stings." Originally, she required special wrist devices to produce these but again, Pym particle absorption has allowed her to create the ability unaided.

The Wasp's genetic modifications also grant her the ability to sprout small prehensile antennae from her forehead which allow her to telepathically communicate with and control insects. However, this is an ability which she rarely uses.

Van Dyne has also displayed several non-superhuman abilities that have garnered her special fame and attention, foremost of which is her fashion sense, as in nearly all of her early appearances, she sported a new costume, presumably designed and manufactured on her own. In addition, The Wasp is one of the most intuitive, if not deductive, members of the Avengers. She effectively deduced that a chemical accident created a schizophrenic break in Henry Pym, the relationship between the scarlet witch and the Vision was the result of the infused personality of Wonder Man, and guessed the identity of Iron Man at a time when Tony Stark faked his own death.

Cars and Houses

Houses and cars have something in common. Both of them required an intensive care on the inner and outer parts. Houses, with the help of some interior designers, can look more appealing by renovating a specific area and make it look more elegant. Houses, with the use of paints and with the skills of an expert exterior designer, will make the exterior part more creative and unique. This goes the same thing in your car. Car, with the help of some car operators, can look more appealing by adding some cool gadgets like audio and video player inside. You can also replace your floor mats to customized ones to make it more unique. For exterior, you can add some cool car accessories to make it look great. However, in houses, decorating is more than just putting designs on it. The most important part in decorating a house is the materials that you will be using. The higher the quality, the better. In cars, accessories are more than just display. It would be great to add accessories in your car that has multiple functions. You can add bug deflectors in front of your car or truck to protect your cars from bugs and other highway debris. You can also try putting window vent visors for a complete and ultimate protection.

HENRY PYM

Dr. Henry "Hank" Pym is a fictional character that appears in publications published by Marvel Comics.Pym's character, which debuted in a standalone science-fiction anthology story, returning several issues later as the superhero Ant-Man, with the power to shrink to the size of an insect. Pym is eventually given a crime-fighting partner, Janet van Dyne, the Wasp, and goes on to assume other superhero identities, including the size-changing Giant-Man and Goliath; the insect-themed Yellow Jacket; and, as of 2009,The Wasp . Debuting in the Silver Age of Comic Books, the character of Henry Pym has featured in other Marvel-endorsed products such as animated films; arcade and video games; television series and merchandise such as action figures and trading cards.

Dr. Hank Pym is a scientific genius of the highest order with expertise in the fields of quantum physics, robotics/cybernetics, artificial intelligence, biochemistry, and even entomology; he possesses a Ph.D in biochemistry and is one of the world's foremost biochemists. Notable achievements in robotics include the invention of Ultron and occasional repair of the android Vision. Pym also discovered the self-titled subatomic "Pym particles" that enable mass to be shunted or gained from an alternate dimension, thus changing the size of himself or other beings or objects.Pym has experimented with size-shifting for much of his adult life, initially via ingested capsules and later via particle-filled gas. Enough exposure to the particles eventually allows Pym to change size at will, as well as mentally generate Pym particles to change the sizes of other living beings or inanimate objects. Pym retains his normal strength when "ant" size, and possesses greatly increased strength and stamina when in "giant" form, courtesy of the increased mass. He is able to attain a stated maximum height of roughly 100 feet (30 m) and a minimum height of 1/2 inch; he has also demonstrated the ability to shrink to subatomic size. Pym’s costume is synthetic stretch fabric composed of unstable molecules and automatically adapts to his shifting sizes.
He also uses a variety of aids, including a cybernetic helmet for achieving rudimentary communication with ants and other higher insects and to control their minds (as Ant-Man) and artificial wings and bio-blasters called "stingers" built into his gloves (as Yellowjacket). Pym also carries a variety of weaponry, provisions, and scientific instruments, which are shrunken to the size of microchips and stored in the pockets of his uniform.

Cheap Eyeglasses For Everyone


(My Younger Brother and Me)
Just like me, my younger brother loves to wear eyeglasses. These eyeglasses may be too bulky yet fashionable. I used to match up my glasses to my clothes and I am very comfortable in that way. I have a poor eye sight. I can’t even read texts from books. That’s why I always have my reading glasses in my bag. I used to collect fashionable eyeglasses and place them in a separate drawer. Whenever I broke an eyeglass, I immediately contact my optometrist to fix it. But after reading “Eric’s Review of Zenni Optical”, I realized that it would be better just to buy a new prescription glasses from Zenni Optical. Zenni Optical is well-known for providing high quality eyeglasses. No wonder why they are dubbed us “The #1 online Rx glasses store”. This is the only online store where you can find the Lowest Price Progressive Glasses. As far as I know, you can purchase an eyeglass for as low as $8. See! Instead of a very costly repair, it would be better to buy a new one from Zenni Optical where I can find the cheapest yet high quality glasses.
Here’s one of the eyeglasses I found from their website. I love the abstract combination of red and black. So great! You can visit their site too to see the rest of their cool eyeglasses.
