The Mangekyō Sharingan (万華鏡写輪眼, Literally meaning: Kaleidoscope Copy Wheel Eye), noted to be the "heavenly eyes that see the truth of all of creation without obstruction" (天壌の理を掌握せし瞳, tenjō no kotowari wo shōaku seshi hitomi),[1] is an advanced form of the Sharingan that has only been activated by a handful of Uchiha.[2] It was also awakened by Kakashi Hatake — a non-Uchiha.[3]
The Mangekyō Sharingan is awakened through the trauma experienced from the death of a person very close to the Sharingan user. With the user normally having to witness or experience this first hand, Uchiha throughout history have killed those closest to them in order to expedite this process.[4] To obtain the Mangekyō Sharingan, one must feel the emotion of losing a friend or family, as merely killing them or watching them die will not activate it.
It is distinguished from a normal Sharingan by its appearance, which changes the form of the tomoe seal. Unlike the Sharingan, the appearance of the Mangekyō Sharingan differs from user to user with all known wielders of the dōjutsu having eyes that resemble variations of pinwheels. In addition to the number of peculiar techniques it allows those who wield it to cast, it offers enhanced perceptive[5] and Genjutsu casting capabilities; the latter of which being infamous for its potential to subjugate an entity as powerful as the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox,[6][7] a feat only Madara and Obito Uchiha have displayed thus far.[8][9]
Over time, use of the Mangekyō Sharingan's techniques deteriorates the user's eyesight to the point of blindness, a harsh fate for those that have grown accustomed to the power and visual acuity it affords.[10] Only by transplanting the eyes of another Uchiha can they hope to regain their sight, and ocular powers. If the transplanted eyes happen to be the Mangekyō Sharingan of an Uchiha with strong blood ties with the recipient — ideally a sibling — the likelihood of compatibility is increased, resulting in the creation of an Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan (永遠の万華鏡写輪眼, Eien no Mangekyō Sharingan).[11] This process, which took at least several days for a complete recovery as seen in Sasuke's case,[12][13] not only permanently restores the recipient's eyesight, but also bolsters their own ocular power with that of the donor's. This is signified by the intertwined appearance of their Mangekyō Sharingan's tomoe seals, with traits of the donor's tomoe merging with those of the eyes' new host. Due to the strict compatibility issues and the Mangekyō Sharingan's rarity, not everyone can gain these benefits by transplanting the eyes of just any Uchiha, which has been the cause of many fruitless sacrifices throughout the Uchiha clan's history. Thus far, only Madara and Sasuke are known to have been successful in this endeavour.
Madara was able to change his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan into the Rinnegan[14] after implanting the DNA of Hashirama Senju into himself, though the dōjutsu only awakened years after the implant, when Madara's natural lifespan was almost over.[15]
Mangekyō Sharingan Variations
Itachi Uchiha
Itachi Uchiha gained the Mangekyō Sharingan by aiding his best friend, Shisui, in killing himself.[16] With the Mangekyō Sharingan, Itachi was able to use at least three powerful techniques. With his "left Mangekyō" he could use Tsukuyomi, an extremely powerful genjutsu that allowed him to distort the victim's perception of time, torturing their psyche for what seemed like days in a matter of seconds. With his "right Mangekyō" he could use Amaterasu, a ninjutsu which creates virtually-inextinguishable black flames at the user's focal point that continue to burn until the target is reduced to ash. The last of these known techniques was Susanoo, which allowed Itachi to summon a massive ethereal warrior. This entity fights on behalf of Itachi and shields him from most attacks. According to Zetsu, when it is combined with the Yata Mirror and Sword of Totsuka it essentially made Itachi invincible. Itachi's Susanoo has three forms which it goes through: an incomplete skeletal form, a complete warrior-like form and a final form that resembles a yamabushi.
Use of the Mangekyō Sharingan put a great strain on Itachi's body and would quickly deplete his chakra reserves to the point that after using it three times in a day, he deactivated his eyes to their normal state.[17] A clone containing 30% of his chakra couldn't use it once. By the time he battled Sasuke, his sight had been reduced to a large blur, yet having resolved himself to dying at the hands of his brother, pushed past this limitation and used his Mangekyō Sharingan more than three times as well as other techniques. After being reincarnated by the Impure World Reincarnation technique, Itachi was able to use the Mangekyō Sharingan for extended periods of time without complaints of physical ailments, or deteriorating vision. Some time after his death, Sasuke eventually took Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan as his own, granting him an Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
Kakashi Hatake
Kakashi Hatake's Mangekyō Sharingan awakened, after the trauma of killing Rin Nohara with his own hands.[3] Despite its awakening, Kakashi only began to use the Mangekyō during Part II of the series, whether he knew he possessed it beforehand is unknown. Regardless, with this dōjutsu Kakashi can use a space–time ninjutsu known as Kamui to create a barrier and send a target to the other dimension and afterwards teleport them back in a new location. The barrier requires considerable effort to aim with precision, leaving Kakashi's chakra significantly drained; especially considering that Kakashi is a non-Uchiha. Initially, he could only handle two uses in a single day, left crippled for over a week from a third use,[18] and had poor control at aiming it.[19] However, after much practice, he can now even control the size of it to only affect the target he chooses, and use precise aim to warp speeding targets.[20] He can also use it twice in quick succession, without showing immediate chakra drain and fatigue, to counter Sasuke Uchiha's Susanoo arrows.[21] By the time of the Fourth Shinobi World War, Kakashi became able to use it several more times in a single day, even with multiple other chakra-taxing techniques, and recover from an over-usage much quicker. His skill has grown to the point that he can use this technique on himself.[22]
Obito Uchiha
After witnessing Rin Nohara dying at Kakashi's hands, Obito Uchiha awakened his Mangekyō Sharingan.[3] As the two share the same pair of eyes, Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan also allows him to use Kamui, although his version differs from that of Kakashi's. Whereas Kakashi's version works on targets from a distance, Obito's version requires him to first make physical contact with a target besides himself and afterwards, he can teleport the target back from the other dimension. In addition, Obito's version gives him a form of "intangibility", brought about by him teleporting portions of his body for short periods of time to the other dimension in order to avoid damage or pass through obstacles. This also provides Obito immunity from Kakashi's Kamui being used directly against him since they both access the same dimensional space, though attacks being warped by Kamui to the other dimension can bypass Obito's intangibility.[23] He can also combine the spatial distortion of the Kamui with his Fire Release techniques to create a massive vortex of flames.
Madara Uchiha
Madara Uchiha, along with his younger brother Izuna, were the first Uchiha to awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan.[24] He eventually began to go blind from overusing it, and only by taking his younger brother's eyes, did he regain his sight.[25][26] This also gave him an Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan which granted him even greater power.[27] His Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan looks like his original one, overlapping that of Izuna's.
Madara became one of the few to awaken Susanoo, as a result of awakening Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi in both eyes. Madara boasts a "perfect" full-bodied Susanoo that is equal in power to that of a tailed beast. He could also use his Susanoo to shape it around Kurama to protect it from Hashirama Senju. His Susanoo has shown unique attributes in that it has two faces and two sets of hands instead of a single face and three hands as seems to be the standard.[28] Madara can also completely control the Nine-Tails with the dōjutsu,[29][30][31] a feat which no one else but Obito Uchiha has achieved.[32]
Izuna Uchiha
Alongside his brother, Izuna Uchiha and Madara were the first two people in the clan to awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan.[24] Madara later took Izuna's eyes to regain his deteriorating vision.[25] There are many, and somewhat conflicting accounts of how Madara acquired the eyes; some note that Izuna willingly gave up his eyes for the Uchiha clan's sake,[33][34] another implied that Madara took them by force.[25]
Sasuke Uchiha
Sasuke Uchiha awakened his Mangekyō Sharingan after learning the truth about his brother, Itachi; filled with grief from learning that Itachi was not the villain he imagined him to be and the role he played in his brother's death. The appearance of Sasuke's Mangekyō Sharingan is somewhat unique among those revealed thus far, which generally possess patterns centrifugally aligned along their pupils. His own spreads and converges along the edges of the irides, resulting in three intersecting ellipses that resemble an atom model.
Sasuke has been shown using the same Mangekyō Sharingan techniques as Itachi, but in an inverted manner. With his "right Mangekyō" he can use Tsukuyomi to break a target's will and paralyse them.[35] Danzō Shimura stated that Sasuke's version is not yet capable of altering the victim's perception of time, and thus is vastly inferior to Itachi's.[36] With his "left Mangekyō" he can use Amaterasu. It has been implied that his skill with Amaterasu surpasses Itachi's, as he is able to use Blaze Release: Kagutsuchi with his "right Mangekyō" to apply Shape Transformation to the flames, as well as extinguish them at will. Sasuke has displayed the ability to use Susanoo, which he can even partially manifest to fit the situation, such as using a ribcage for defence or manifesting only an arm to interact with his surroundings. Sasuke's Susanoo develops in stages during various battles; he first starts using an incomplete version against the Fourth Raikage, develops a version capable of firing arrows while fighting with Danzō, and later forms a version almost identical to Itachi's during his battle with Kakashi. Sasuke's Susanoo appears more demonic than Itachi's.
Due to his high chakra reserves, Sasuke is able to use the Mangekyō Sharingan techniques more than three times a day. Sasuke can maintain Susanoo for extended periods of time, on top of using the Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi several times a day along with some other chakra-consuming techniques like the Chidori. Like with all other wielders, Sasuke's use of the Mangekyō Sharingan puts a great strain on Sasuke's body and eyes.
Initially, Sasuke refused to transplant Itachi's eyes to restore his vision even when it was reduced to a heavy blur at best, claiming that his views were different from Itachi's. However, after meeting Naruto again and being shocked at his determination to save Sasuke from his darkness, Sasuke decided to take Itachi's eyes so that he could kill Naruto with his full strength. His Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan takes the shape of his old Mangekyō Sharingan, but incorporates a straightened version of Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan design into its centre. With his new eyes, the final form of his Susanoo takes on a more ghastly shape.
Shisui Uchiha
Shisui Uchiha awakened his Mangekyō Sharingan at some point through unknown means. It granted him the ability to cast powerful genjutsu techniques, the most powerful of his genjutsu arsenal being Kotoamatsukami.[37] This technique allowed him to manipulate an opponent's thoughts completely without them having the slightest idea that they were being controlled. Furthermore, this technique can be used without eye contact or even the need to uncover the eye if concealed.[38] The only drawback of using that technique was the fact that it would render his Mangekyō unusable for quite some time.[39]
A highly coveted ability, Shisui's right eye was stolen by Danzō Shimura while he was still alive.[40] After replacing his own right eye with Shisui's and infusing some of Hashirama Senju's DNA into himself, Danzō was able to drastically reduce the timespan between each usage of this technique. Shisui entrusted his left eye to Itachi Uchiha and told him to protect the village and the clan's name;[40] Itachi implanted it into a crow which he later stored inside Naruto Uzumaki.[41] Shisui then made it appear as though he had crushed his own eyes in order to prevent a feud over them and erased his existence, though it was thought that he was drowned by Itachi in the Naka River.[42] Both eyes are eventually destroyed, with Danzō crushing his before dying,[43] and Itachi incinerating the crow after it came back out of Naruto.[44]
Mangekyō Sharingan Forms
Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan Forms
- In the anime, in the fight against A, the internal intersection lines of Sasuke's Mangekyō Sharingan are replaced by a circle.[45]
- In the anime, when Kakashi used his Mangekyō Sharingan to warp away Sasuke's Susanoo's arrows, the black and red colours became inverted.[46]
- The manners in which an individual gains the Mangekyō Sharingan are almost parallel to how an Uchiha awakens their regular Sharingan for the first time, since both need intense emotions to awaken them.

May 5, 2016
Los Angeles, CA - The early disappointment gave way to pure elation.
When the Gators started off on beam Saturday night at the NCAA Gymnastics Championships, the last thing anyone expected was to see Ashanee Dickerson and Kytra Hunter fall.
When the rotation was over, Gators coach Rhonda Faehn gathered her team in a huddle to regroup.
They regroup nicely.
"I just told them we can still do this,'' Faehn said. "You can still win."
The Gators listened and then went out and did it, finishing with the best scores on the vault, floor and bars to win the program's first national championship.
Florida joins Alabama, UCLA, Georgia and Utah as the only schools to claim national titles in women's gymnastics since the NCAA began to govern the sport for the 1981-82 season.
The Gators finished with a team score of 197.575 to edge second-place Oklahoma (197.375) and third-place Alabama (197.350).

American painter William Holbrook Beard (1825-1900) specialized in satirically depicting businessmen, scientists and politicians as animals. A self-taught painter, Beard's was a prolific artist of invention and originality. His witty mockery of animals succumbing to human foibles, most often drunkenness and infidelity, were met with acclaim. This was not true of the conservative organizations, who were outraged by his representations but largely because they were often the butts of his ridicule. Although his artistic skills were modest, Beard's work was a vogue sensation in his day.

Following was the Editor's Note from the Summer 2006 edition of Allergic Living.
Christina Desforges became known the world over as the girl who died from kissing her boyfriend who had eaten peanut butter – specifically, nine hours before she collapsed, he'd had two pieces of toast spread with peanut butter.
Allergic Living was the first to report (Spring 2006 issue) that a coroner would find, however, that the 15-year-old from Saguenay, Quebec did not die of an allergic reaction, but rather succumbed to a severe asthma attack. And in May, Dr. Michel Miron released his report, saying just that.
Yet, in the allergy community, a few questions are being raised that the coroner may have answers for, but which aren't addressed in his report. For instance:
• Christina arrived at her boyfriend's house at 2:30 in the afternoon. Her fatal asthma attack began at 3 a.m. In the intervening time, what did she eat? Might any of it have contained traces of nuts or peanuts (she was allergic to both)? The friends with her didn't know she was allergic – were they even able to tell the coroner what she ate?
• Did Christina and her boyfriend kiss or "make out" before 3 a.m., when the coroner mentions that kissing and "physical exertion" began? (A teenage couple who didn't kiss for nine hours with no parents around would be a rather unusual pair.)
• Marijuana cigarettes were passed among friends. What had others eaten who may have shared a joint with Christina?
We may never have all the answers in the tragedy of Christina [see full report here [1]]. But one message that comes through clearly in the coroner's report is that teenagers with asthma and allergies need to be vigilant about both conditions; prepared with medications and knowledge of how to use them. You can't be blasé about the very real risks of either condition.
A last word on peanut risks – in ruling out an allergic reaction in Christina's case, the coroner referred to a new study on peanuts and kissing. While the study's author found that nine of 10 people had no peanut residue remaining in their saliva one hour after eating peanut butter, she noted that other studies had found the allergen lasting longer.
Dr. Jennifer Maloney stressed the risks in kissing, and gave the Reuters news agency this sound advice: "The safest approach would be for the partner of a food-allergic individual to avoid the food. If this is impossible, we think that waiting several hours, possibly eating a meal in between, would reduce the levels below a level that would pose a critical problem."

It's not just your imagination, this has been a tough year [2006] for environmental allergy sufferers. It started off as a banner year for pollen production in North America's northern regions because of a mild winter. Rain and moderate temperatures left plants bursting with pollen. Once that had dispersed into the air and our nostrils, summer landed prematurely in June.
In the northeast, you could almost hear its smog-filled thud. I'm one of those people who thrives on our sun-warmed months, but this was a brutishly humid, hot, sticky start to summer. It was unpleasant enough that even those without asthma spent the first days of summer shut inside with the air-conditioner.
This was, however, an appropriate time to be editing Sarah Scott's investigation of latest findings on the relationship between air pollution and asthma ("Summer Smog & Asthma [3]"). The connections between traffic and asthma in children are fascinating, if alarming. And the research Sarah discusses is already having an impact: in June the U.S. government cut the amount of sulfur allowed in car and truck diesel fuels to 15 parts per million from 500 parts per million. Canada will soon follow suit, and these changes are being tied directly to asthma's health costs.
And yet more good news – auto manufacturers are reporting record sales of environmentally friendly hybrid cars and trucks. This is a beginning.
So raise a cold glass of your favorite allergy-friendly concoction to sunny and clearer skies for the rest of the summer. After all, we've got Simon Clarke's great recipes [4] to make on the backyard barbecue. Now that kind of smoke and heat, we're willing to withstand.

Laughter's the best medicine for SC girls
SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- If the whole girls basketball gig doesn't work out, perhaps first-year South Charleston girls coach John Testa could run a comedy club with guard Lina Villanueva as his star comedienne.
On Thursday night, his instruction and her sense of humor helped the Black Eagles take a 54-48 home win over Woodrow Wilson.
With Taliah Cashwell standing at the foul line facing a pair of knee-knocking free throws with her team up four points in the final minute, Testa instructed Villanueva to tell a joke.
Villanueva grinned, leaned in and whispered something, and Cashwell smiled and sank both shots, providing the winning margin.
"I'm an intense individual and they'll tell you that, but they want me to be less intense and I want them to be more intense and more focused," Testa said. "T [Cashwell] was on the line and she's standing there nervous and her knees are shaking and I said 'Lina, just tell her a joke.' We sit around the locker room and tell jokes and have a good time and it's a family atmosphere. You've got to break the ice somehow.
"I told her after the game, you've got to tell me that joke later."
Truth be told, Villanueva could probably patent it if it has the same effect on everyone. Heck, Woodrow Wilson coach Bernard Bostick would probably buy it after watching his squad shoot just 9 of 21 from the line.
It was pretty appropriate coming from Villanueva, considering the evening she had.
The sophomore struggled throughout most of the game, making just two of her first 13 shots from the floor before being carried off the floor in the third quarter with a leg injury.
Still, she returned in the fourth and scored eight of the Black Eagles' first 10 points of the period, providing just enough spark to hold a charging Woodrow team at bay.
"We're a young team and even our seniors don't have a lot of experience," Testa said. "I kept telling Lina, 'You're going to the rim, you're getting bumped, they'll call it. Just keep going to the rim and do what you do and have fun with it.'"
It was almost the perfect storm for Woodrow (1-6), which used an extreme size advantage to stay nipping at SC's heels all night.
The Flying Eagles played four girls listed at 5-foot-10 or taller, and SC's only legitimate post player, Aryaunna Mosley, was sitting out her second game after an ejection.
Woodrow's Bre Thompson took advantage, posting a monster double-double of 23 points and 25 rebounds, while three of her teammates had eight or more rebounds, including 10 for Jasha Payne.
But on the flip side, SC's full lineup of guards forced 35 turnovers and hit 6 of 13 shots from 3-point range. Woodrow Wilson made just 1 of 2.
"We've got to do a better job taking care of the ball and being more precise in what we do, and if we do that will be OK," Bostick said. "South Charleston is a good team. They're athletic, they get up and down the floor and I thought we ran with them, we just didn't finish like we should've."
Kavita Francois and Summer Butler each scored eight points for the Flying Eagles.
Alexia Wade scored 12 points and added seven rebounds for SC (6-4) while Cashwell and Alliyah Webb scored nine apiece.
Villanueva chipped in a pair of steals and one heck of a well-timed punch line.

DENVER - The first time he dunked on someone, it was impressive. The second and third times, we got the point. The numerous alley-oops were unnecessary, but they just hammered the point home. 6-foot-4, 180-pound Bowie (Md.) Princeton Day Academy Chris Thomas clearly isn't your normal 2013 prospect, on and off the court. ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member. Sign Up Now!

Rated 3.3 out of 5 by 16 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by anceney Fabulous The zipper security pockets are perfect for travel and city travel. It helps a lot during these difficult times discouraging pick pockets. Fabulous waste band for those who are expand from time to time. August 27, 2010
Rated 5 out of 5 by philiplo Comfortable and classy Nice looking pant that fits well. I ride a bike and thus have thick thighs that need extra space. These pants accommodated this, and even have a little extra give in the waist for those times when the measurements fluctuate. October 9, 2010
Rated 5 out of 5 by TravelingNanny Tops in style, comfort and ease of care! Most expandable waist slacks are either bulky at the waist, or look like 'old men's slacks' and my husband gave up on finding some that he liked. But then I bought a pair of these slacks for him and he loved them from the moment he tried them on. He now owns four pair. They look very good on him, accomodate waist size change comfortably but without added bulk at the sides, and look great even after wearing them for hours in a humid environment. I love them because they only require the touch of an iron after washing to look like new! I strongly recommend them...and so does he. November 20, 2010
Rated 5 out of 5 by dogmom well fitting, attractive slacks I ordered these for my husband. He insists on adjustable waists, as he's between sizes. He's quite happy with these slacks. They fit well, do not seem to wrinkle badly, are not bulky, and wash well. Husband is wearing them as regular slacks (business, casual), but plans to use them for a forthcoming trip. June 12, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Truchas Great Pants Bought these pants to take on a trip to Panama and Costa Rica. Wore them for a week in warm to hot humid weather and they were very comfortable and looked great at the end of the week. They came out of the washer and dryer looking like new. I'm going to buy another pair for future trips. February 10, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by zsdad I am in Belgium, and I am getting the use I expected , I. E. they wear well, look good and launder easily. Very worttwhile July 26, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by greensfox Good casual pant Very comfortable pant. Fabric is pretty heavy but looks good. March 14, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Verified Reviewer durable The fit and finish are good. The fabric is quite heavy and a bit stiff, but they definitely do not wrinkle. Better for cooler weather, too heavy for hot weather. Overpriced compared to others available elsewhere. Would not have bought if not on sale. January 23, 2012

Comments On Jan 07, 2013:I had this case for almost a year before it was cracked in a number of places. The design looks cool but the hard cover needs to be a little better engineered for hard impacts. All of the damage came from dropping the phone though and not from "normal" wear and tear. My phone was never damaged despite the tatty looking case and numerous drops. I sent Incipo an email at the end of the year and they warrantied the case free of charge. Great company that I would gladly buy from again.

Comments On Feb 07, 2012:I would NOT recommend this phone cover !! I have had it for a little over a month now never once has it been dropped or misused yet it has broke in three different places. I would save your money and buy one that will last longer than a month !! :)

Comments On Jan 14, 2012:After a months use the hard plastic shell started to break easily until it finally fell off also when I took a photo at night the photo was a blur of green as I had a green cover

Comments On Jun 24, 2011:Ive had it for several months and it still looks new. I like how the hard outside shell lets it go in and out of pockets easily. No problems with it breaking or cracking yet!!! I personally like it.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Apr 30, 2011:This is one sweet case! It has a nice soft inner lining to protect the phone and has a harder shell where it needs the protection most and at the same time having nice soft grab points. The fit into the case is good also. A great product from Alpinstars and it has everything I was looking for to protect my iphone 4. I've only had the case for a week but I'm thinking about ordering another one in a different colour, just for something different now and then.
The only issue I have is getting the phone in and out of the case to put in the arm band when going for a run. The fit is so good that its a little hard to get out, but I might just look for another option to carry the phone when running.
Additional Comments On Jun 09, 2011:After a months use I've changed my opinion. A lot of the plastic case has cracked and small pieces have broken off leaving the inner cover only. Case looks good and in theory should work well but the plastic isn't very durable. I'd say there are better cases out there.

haha, ur right on the money justin, its funny what you see when your mind allready has something inplace
I think Justin got it. After looking at it again, I would say it's a large bird in flight too.
-NRA Life Member
Its a bird, its a ibex, its a "oh yeah, a bird"!!! Thats funny! Good bulls nevertheless...
Well....if you ask the Sasquatch hunter guys, I am sure they would be leaning toward a confirmed squatch sighting there.....haha.
However, I do agree a bird, due to the un obstructed view of the tree in the back ground where as a large animal would have blocked that view.
I hunt because......
Those 3 are definitely all Ibex! I hope I have that Ibex problem this fall.
A bad day in the woods is better than a good day at work.
Shoot the best, Shoot PSE!
Either a bird landing or taking off or a fallow deer ? Are there exotics on the ranch ?
Bird flying away from the camera. Nice on the other pic
Whooooo!!! Knock'em out John
Looks like a pretty productive cam if you ask me. Nice pics.

Looking for someone to blame for Denver's latest loss?
Look anywhere other than the locker belonging to No. 18, Peyton Manning.
From a confused defense that couldn't get off the field to a butterfingered offense that couldn't stay on it to a coaching staff that got outmaneuvered at every turn, the Broncos dug themselves a hole in a 31-21 loss to New England on Sunday. Manning made his usual, determined effort to get them out of it, but came up short.
Denver fell to 2-3 and raised a critical question nearly a third of the way into the season: Sure, the Broncos upgraded at the quarterback position by acquiring Manning in the offseason, but did they take care of the rest?

- "There's nothing like buying food off the street to ensure it is healthy, nutritious and well prepared. After all, a man who does not have a kitchen cannot have a dirty kitchen."
- ―GTA San Andreas Website
Chilli Dogs is a food company in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Vendors can be found all around the state of San Andreas. Each chilli dog costs $1 and replenishes a small amount of the player's health. Chilli Dogs advertises itself as the "Best in SA" and sponsors Hotring Racers.
- If you approach the stall, the vendor might not be there. However, if you turn around, he will spawn immediately.
- The vendor seems to really like his stall. If you destroy the stall (e.g. with a car), he will attack the player, pull him out of the car, and keep on hitting him, using rude dialogues. There is a glitch when you suddenly jump out of his way, he will keep on going into one direction with his aggressive movement, until he is disturbed or disappears.

"Mhysa" is the tenth and final episode of the third season of Game of Thrones. It is the thirtieth episode of the series overall.[1] It premiered on June 9, 2013. It was written by executive producers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss.
Joffrey challenges Tywin. Bran tells a ghost story. In Dragonstone, mercy comes from strange quarters. Dany waits to see if she is a conqueror or a liberator.
In the Seven Kingdoms
At the Twins, following the massacre of the northern lords at the Red Wedding, House Frey turns its soldiers on the northern army encamped outside their walls. The ensuing battle is a one-sided massacre as the leaderless northerners fight desperately for survival. Arya Stark and the Hound slip away from the carnage, but not before seeing her brother's mutilated corpse being paraded by Frey men-at-arms, his head cut off and replaced by his direwolf Grey Wind.
In the great hall of the castle the following morning, as servants clean up the aftermath of the Red Wedding, Lords Walder Frey and Roose Bolton gloat over their victory and the rewards their treachery has won them; Frey has become Lord of Riverrun and Bolton has been appointed Warden of the North in place of the Starks, until Sansa Stark and Tyrion Lannister produce an heir to The North. Bolton expresses some concern that Brynden Tully escaped the massacre but Frey dismisses his concerns, pointing out the Blackfish is alone and outnumbered against Houses Frey, Bolton, and Lannister. Bolton makes plain his contempt for Robb Stark, considering the late boy-king arrogant, politically incompetent, and unwilling to take Roose's advice and make the hard decisions needed to win. Walder questions Bolton about his intentions to take Winterfell as his seat and asks how the castle ended up a ruin. Roose explains that his bastard Ramsay offered Robb Stark's terms that the ironborn occupiers would be shown mercy if they handed over Theon Greyjoy, but when they did they learned that Ramsay, in his father's words, "has his own way of doing things" and flayed them alive.
At the Dreadfort, Ramsay Snow eats his breakfast of a thick sausage, taunting Theon about his recent emasculation and laughing as Theon finally begs for death as a release from the nightmare. Ramsay tells him that he is more valuable alive than dead so the answer must be no. Ramsay notes that Theon reeks, and decides that that shall be his new name: Reek. Ramsay beats Theon, who eventually breaks down and says his name is Reek.
On Pyke, Balon Greyjoy reads a message from Lord Bolton's bastard while his daughter Yara Greyjoy cautiously opens a box crudely carved with the Greyjoy kraken. As Ramsay's letter explains the box contains "Theon's favorite toy." The message bluntly says that the ironborn have until the full moon to withdraw from the North or receive more bits and pieces of Theon. In addition any remaining ironborn will be flayed alive - just as Ramsay flayed alive Theon's twenty ironborn followers at Winterfell after they surrendered, even though he had promised them safe passage. It was in fact Ramsay Snow and his soldiers from House Bolton who burned Winterfell to the ground: he simply sent false reports for his father Roose to deliver to Robb Stark which claimed that the ironborn were responsible, as the Boltons were preparing to betray the Starks months before the Red Wedding.
Balon is indifferent to Theon's situation since he defied Balon's orders and Yara's common sense when he stayed at Winterfell. Furthermore he cannot further the Greyjoy line, as the contents of the box prove. Yara has finally had enough and announces her intention to take her fastest ship, her fifty best men, sail around Westeros, besiege the Dreadfort, and liberate Theon.
In the Riverlands, a despondent Arya Stark and Sandor Clegane ride away from the outskirts of the Twins. They pass close to a small group of Frey men, one of whom is bragging about being one of the men who cut off Grey Wind's head and attached it to Robb Stark's body. Arya approaches them and asks to warm herself by the fire. She offers the coin given to her by Jaqen H'ghar as payment. When the Frey man investigates, she stabs him in the neck. Slightly thrown, the Hound deals with the others before demanding to know where Arya got the knife. She reveals it's his. As he grumbles and cleans up the bodies, Arya whispers, "valar morghulis".
Meanwhile, in King's Landing, Tyrion Lannister and Sansa Stark walk through the gardens. A pair of passing gentlemen snigger at Tyrion, either for his dwarf status or due to rumors he has not consummated his marriage. Sansa tells him to pay them no mind. Tyrion reminds Sansa that he's used to it, as he's always been a dwarf. He also states that he's not Joffrey, Tyrion would rather bide his time and humiliate them. Sansa playfully follows his line of thinking, and suggests "sheep-shifting"- secretly hiding sheep's dung deep within a mattress (as Arya used to do to her), so that the target always wakes up smelling of dung. Tyrion is amused but is confused by the term, though he realizes belatedly that Sansa has misheard the word "shit". He is rescued from having to explain his wife's mistake by Podrick Payne, who calls him to a meeting of the Small Council.
In Tywin's chambers Grand Maester Pycelle dithers over giving Tyrion a coded message from Lord Frey. Cersei and a jubilant Joffrey give an overview of the Red Wedding. Tyrion isn't particularly excited, already foreseeing the long-term problems that the incident will cause, but Joffrey brushes him off and gleefully states that he intends to serve Robb's severed head to Sansa at his wedding feast. None of the Small Council is able to mask how distasteful they find the concept. Varys points out that Sansa is Joffrey's aunt by marriage now (and it would be unseemly not to give her the basic respect that accords). A deeply embarrassed Cersei forces a smile and insists to the rest of the council that Joffrey was only joking and did not mean it. This puzzles Joffrey, who matter-of-factly states to his mother that he did mean it, and he will have Robb's head served at his wedding feast. Tyrion flatly forbids it and tells Joffrey that Sansa isn't his to torment anymore. Joffrey angrily proclaims that he is the king, and everyone is his to torment. Tywin counters that a king who has to remind his subjects of the fact is no king. Joffrey goes apoplectic and tries to fight his grandfather, deriding Tywin as a coward who hid under Casterly Rock while Joffrey's father King Robert won the real war when he overthrew the Targaryens. The entire Small Council tenses waiting for Tywin to respond to this shocking insult: instead Tywin coldly and calmly declares that the king is tired and advises the Queen Regent to see him to bed. Tywin dismisses the rest of the council, save Tyrion, who is delighted at what has just happened: the lord of the Seven Kingdoms has been sent to bed without his supper. He then confronts Tywin about his part in the Red Wedding, noting that Walder Frey is a coward and would not have done something nearly this ambitious if he didn't have assurances from Tywin. The Hand blithely confirms it and dismisses Tyrion's concerns that the Northerners will never forget nor forgive such an outrage, believing setting a brutal example will break the Notherners and prevent future rebellions. Tywin again waxes poetic about family, particularly regarding Tyrion's failure to consummate his marriage to Sansa, but Tyrion finally has enough. He refuses to force himself on Sansa to do his duty, as well as noting that she is hardly likely to warm up to him after learning the Lannisters have murdered her mother and brother. Tyrion demands to know a single time that Tywin actually put his family members first, instead of just the family's prestige. Tywin says that was the day of Tyrion's birth: he wanted to leave him on the beach to be washed away by the sea, but Tyrion is a Lannister and Tywin couldn't bring himself to do it. Thus Tyrion should be outright grateful to Tywin for his mercy in not killing his newborn son the day he was born.
Immediately after leaving, Tyrion returns to his chambers and calls for Sansa, who simply regards him with a forlorn, tear-streaked face. Tyrion backs out, knowing that his sympathy would be rather cold comfort.
Elsewhere in the Red Keep, Varys meets with Shae. He tells her that he knows she is genuinely in love with Tyrion - and that is why she should take the diamonds he offers her and leave immediately for Essos to build a new, lavish life for herself. Varys is convinced that Tyrion is the last hope for the Seven Kingdoms' current regime, therefore Shae is a weakness that Tyrion, and thus the realm, cannot afford. Shae confirms that she is in love with Tyrion and that she cares deeply for Sansa as well, but in spite of her pain at seeing them together and the danger she poses, Shae will not leave until or unless Tyrion asks her to.
Unknown to everyone in King's Landing, Jaime Lannister, Brienne of Tarth, and Qyburn finally arrive; the city folk do not even recognise Jaime after his long absence from the capital. They make their way to the Red Keep, where Jaime immediately calls on Cersei, who regards him with a confused look as she takes in his disheveled appearance and missing hand.
At Dragonstone, Ser Davos Seaworth tests his new-found literacy on Stannis Baratheon's correspondence, declining Shireen Baratheon's invitation to read more tales of Aegon I Targaryen. He expresses dissatisfaction about the odd spelling of the word "night", before hearing the horns that signal Melisandre's intents to sacrifice Gendry. He argues with Stannis again about sacrificing the boy, but Stannis is convinced by Melisandre that using Gendry as part of her blood magic will give him the power to destroy his enemies and claim the Iron Throne. When he doesn't get through to his liege, Davos takes matters into his own hands and frees the boy, giving him a rowboat and directions to King's Landing. A furious Stannis tries to throw Davos back into the dungeon but the Onion Knight produces a letter from the Night's Watch. Davos insists that it is Stannis' duty to assist the black brothers, and that he will need Davos's assistance to rally troops and mercenaries. Melisandre burns the letter and acknowledges the truth: the War of the Five Kings is immaterial. The true war lies in the North, and evil and death are marching on the Wall. She also agrees that Davos has an important role to play in the events to come. Stannis laughs at R'hllor's sense of humor, noting that the god Davos likes to mock has chosen him for a higher purpose.
At the Wall
Arriving at the abandoned Nightfort, Meera Reed tells Bran, Hodor and Jojen that the castle is safe to enter. While around the fire Bran tells the story of the Rat Cook, a Night's Watch member who killed a guest under his roof, a sin the gods cannot forgive. Later that night, Bran is awoken by a sound, and wakes his companions in time to see something large climbing out of the castle well; Meera attacks and overpowers the intruder, who is revealed to be Samwell Tarly, accompanied by Gilly. Sam quickly deduces Bran's identity, seeing Bran's direwolf. Bran asks Sam to take him and his group north of the Wall, and though Sam protests the idea, given the threat of the White Walkers and the undead horde they command approaching, he eventually relents and takes them through the passage. Before they separate Sam gives the group the rest of his dragonglass supply and tells them that it has the power to kill White Walkers. The groups then head in different directions; Sam and Gilly for Castle Black, and the Reeds and Bran beyond the Wall.
At Castle Black, Sam and Gilly meet with Maester Aemon, who is furious at the prospect of Sam having violated his vows. Sam defends himself by reciting the Night's Watch oath to protect the realms of men whatever side of the Wall they are on and repeating Jeor Mormont's assertion that a wall of ice 500 leagues long and 700 feet high was not built to keep out barbarians. Aemon's demeanor softens upon learning that Gilly was one of Craster's wives, and acknowledges that she is now a refugee and should be sheltered. Aemon then orders Sam to begin writing letters immediately and make sure that all forty-four of Castle Black's ravens are well-fed, as every one of them is to fly that night: the White Walkers have returned, and Westeros must be warned.
Stopping to rest and tend to his injuries after fleeing the wildlings, Jon Snow finds himself confronted by a furious Ygritte, who has an arrow ready to shoot him. Jon tries to talk Ygritte out of shooting him, insisting that he still loves her. Though his feelings are clearly reciprocated Ygritte is still angered by his betrayal and shoots Jon three times with her bow as he flees from her.
Jon is badly injured, but his horse manages to carry him the rest of the way to Castle Black, as he hovers in and out of consciousness. Having reached safety, Jon is brought inside the castle by the guards, where he encounters Sam and Pypar, who are overjoyed to see him and insist that his injuries be taken care of.
Across the Narrow Sea
Outside the walls of Yunkai, Daenerys Targaryen and her advisors wait for the city's slaves to appear. Daenerys frets that the Yunkish slaves, who are better treated than Astapor's might have grown to like their chains and will not welcome freedom. Finally, the gates open and the freedmen pour out. Missandei begins to tell them of how Daenerys the Unburnt freed them, but Daenerys interrupts and says that it is the slaves' own choice to reach for their freedom. After a moment, one of the freedmen stretches his hand towards Daenerys and calls out "mhysa". After a moment, another follows suit, then another and another until the entire crowd is chanting "mhysa". Bewildered, Daenerys turns to Missandei, who reveals that the word means "mother" in the Ghiscari language. When the slaves advance on Daenerys, the Unsullied step into formation, but the queen tells them to stand down. Telling her dragons to fly, Daenerys steps out of the protection of the Unsullied and into the crowd, who carry on their chanting. Daenerys is embraced by the former slaves, offering a glimmer of hope in an increasingly darker world.

Cast notes
- 21 of 24 cast members for the third season appear in this episode.
- Starring cast members Natalie Dormer (Margaery Tyrell), Jerome Flynn (Bronn) and Aidan Gillen (Petyr Baelish) are not credited and do not appear in this episode.
- As explained in the episode, "Mhysa", meaning "mother", is a Ghiscari loanword in Slaver's Bay Low Valyrian, hence why Daenerys didn't know it: though she speaks the Common Tongue, Dothraki, and several dialects of Valyrian, she doesn't understand Ghiscari.
- Tywin's reaction to Joffrey's insult during the Small Council scene contained non-verbal information in the books which is difficult to translate on-screen. Tywin's calm, almost nonchalant response to send Joffrey to bed is not meant to be humorous, but is in fact utterly terrifying to everyone in the room except Joffrey. Everyone else present (including Tyrion, the POV narrator for this chapter) has known Tywin for years, and know that Tywin has killed men for lesser insults. They all know that on the rare occasions that Tywin responds to insults not by yelling but by speaking with measured and cool words, it is because he is deliberately willing himself to appear calm, when he is in fact suppressing homicidal anger. Moreover, as Joffrey leaves Tywin says to himself that the boy will require a "sharp lesson" - which Tyrion recognizes as the exact same phrase which Tywin used when he forced Tyrion to watch as his guards gang-raped his first wife Tysha, because Tyrion had dared to marry a commoner. Tyrion knows that Tywin would never kill his own grandson, due to the taboo associated with kinslaying (otherwise he would have killed Tyrion simply for being a dwarf long ago), but Tywin now realizes just how crazy Joffrey is and intends to bring him to heel with a horrific punishment. Tyrion doesn't think that Tywin has thought of a specific punishment just at that moment, but still, his choice of words indicates that he intends for something on the scale of when he had his guards gang-rape Tyrion's wife.
- There are several call backs in this episode to previous events:
- Back in the Season 1 finale "Fire and Blood", when Joffrey shows Sansa her father's head on a spike, he threatened her that he intended to present her with her brother Robb's severed head as well; this episode reveals that he fully intends to literally follow through on that promise.
- Joffrey's threat to have Tyrion's tongue cut out for threatening him also calls back to "Fire and Blood", when Joffrey had the minstrel Marillion's tongue cut out in front of the entire courtroom.
- In-universe, the Frey and Bolton soldiers mock how Robb's other bannermen first proclaimed him king by repeatedly shouting "The King in the North!" (in "Fire and Blood"), and subsequently used shouts of "the King in the North!" as their battle-cry for an independent Northern kingdom (in "Garden of Bones"). They mock this by sarcastically chanting "King in the North! King in the North! Here he comes, the King in the North!" as they parade his horrifically desecrated corpse around the Twins on a horse.
- Tywin dismisses everyone at the Small Council meeting, then says a flat "not you" to make Tyrion stay for a private conversation. This is similar to how he dismissed his war council back in "Fire and Blood".
- In the second episode of Season 1, "The Kingsroad", Tyrion remarked to Jon Snow that due to the social stigma of being a [[Dwarf, his parents would probably have left him out in the woods to die as an infant if he had been born a peasant - but unfortunately for Lord Tywin, Tyrion was born into the noble House Lannister. This episode reveals that Tywin did indeed seriously consider killing Tyrion the day he was born by leaving him on the beach and letting the waves sweep him away, and he only relented because Tyrion is a Lannister.
- More loosely, Joffrey's tendency to defend any of his actions (no matter how ridiculous) by shouting "I am the king!" popped up routinely in Season 2, particularly when having Sansa beaten in front of the entire court in "Garden of Bones" or when foolishly starting a city-wide riot in "The Old Gods and the New". Tywin bluntly calls him out on this, pointing out that the man who has to insist people recognize that he's a king really isn't a king at all.
- This episode finally reveals that it was actually Ramsay Snow, son of Roose Bolton, leading soldiers of House Bolton who burned Winterfell to the ground during the Sack of Winterfell. This was not presented as a mystery in the books when it occurred at the end of the second novel, though it wasn't clear at the time if Ramsay did this on his own initiative or if his father Roose was actively planning to betray Robb Stark at the time (though it still isn't clear if Ramsay acted on Roose's orders or if Roose simply agreed with the decision after the fact). Ramsay simply wrote letters to his father and Robb earlier in Season 3 falsely blaming Theon's ironborn as responsible for the destruction of Winterfell - but even this lie wasn't clearly articulated until early Season 3. Thus fans who read the books and the Game of Thrones Wiki in particular were put in the difficult position of not being able to tell TV-first fans who was responsible, as this would have been spoilers, even though it wasn't a mystery in the books.
- This episode also reveals that the twenty ironborn raiders who joined Theon in betraying the Starks and capturing Winterfell, only to then betray Theon himself by knocking him out and handing him over to the Boltons in return for promise of safe passage, were rewarded as traitors deserve: Ramsay broke his promise and flayed each of them alive.
- Characters in the books later describe Roose Bolton as a cold, calculating psychopath, who genuinely has no real emotions and seems oddly distant from normal people. The TV series matches this well at the end of Roose's scene with Walder Frey in this episode, when he gives a smile that comes off as oddly stilted and forced - Roose doesn't have real emotions, and doesn't comprehend the mannerisms made by people who do have emotions. While Roose can from time to time mimic emotional responses such as smiling, it comes off as strangely artificial.
- Walder Frey says he thinks the Great Houses are hypocritical for looking down on him for marrying teenaged girls well into his eighties and nineties, but no one criticized Jon Arryn when he married "that Tully bitch", Catelyn's sister Lysa Tully. Walder misses the point, however, in that while the other Houses are disgusted at the massive age difference between Walder and his young brides, this isn't the main reason they look down on him. Rather, the other Great Houses are disgusted by Walder Frey and his entire family due to their utterly shallow loyalties, i.e. how Hoster Tully infamously dubbed him "the late Walder Frey" because he intentionally marched the forces of House Frey so slowly that they wouldn't reach the Battle of the Trident until it was already over, providing absolutely no real help during Robert's Rebellion. Moreover, within the TV series, other vassals of House Tully from the Riverlands joined Robb Stark's army without question because they had sworn oaths of allegiance to the Tullys. When Catelyn pointed this out to Walder in Season 1's "Baelor" he waved it off as "I said some words" which meant nothing to him - unlike the other sworn Tully vassals, Walder Frey only aids Robb Stark after extorting his own overlords into promising that Robb and Arya will enter into marriage alliances with House Frey. Other lords marry younger brides, but what Walder can't even comprehend is that other people take oaths seriously and are outraged when he casually breaks them - first oaths of loyalty, but now he has revealed that even the sacred oath of guest right means absolutely nothing to him: it's just "some words". The Freys even break basic social oaths such as not desecrating the bodies of fallen enemies, by instead gleefully mutilating Robb Stark's corpse and triumphantly parading it around their castle.
- The TV series has curiously not chosen to show many of the rival kings during the war wearing crowns. Joffrey and even Renly had crowns, but Robb, Stannis, and Balon have never been shown with their crowns. In the novels, Stannis has a new crown made resembling a circle of metal flames around his head, in honor of the Lord of Light, while Balon wears a traditional crown made out of driftwood which the Kings of the Iron Islands used to wear in past centuries. The old Kings in the North used to wear a crown consisting of a simple circlet of bronze, engraved with the Old Tongue runes of the First Men, surmounted by nine black spikes shaped like longswords. The crown was intentionally simple and only made of the basic metals of war, not containing gold or precious gemstones, to emphasize the grave nature of the Kings in the North, in contrast with the flamboyant heraldic excesses of the Andal kingdoms to the south. The crown was taken away when the Starks bent the knee during the Targaryen Conquest three centuries ago, but when Robb is declared the new King in the North the smiths at Riverrun create a very accurate replica which he wears. In the books, when Robb Stark's corpse was mutilated by cutting off his head and sewing his direwolf Grey Wind's head in its place, the final act of desecration was when the Freys (possibly Lord Walder himself) proceeded to nail Robb's crown onto Grey Wind's head - further reinforcing the utter body horror of the moment. Robb's desecrated corpse with the crudely "crowned" direwolf head sown onto it remains one of the most iconic images of the novels.
- Curiously, exactly what happened to Robb Stark's badly mutilated corpse after the Red Wedding has not been mentioned in the novels so far. It was decapitated with a direwolf's head sewn on it, but it was still physically present, and the Freys certainly didn't return it to the Tullys at Riverrun to give it a proper burial. Maybe they threw it in a garbage heap, or threw it in the river, or burned it, or maybe they propped it up to rot at the front gate of the Twins: it has never been stated. What happened to Robb's crown, however, has been revealed: it was subsequently taken by Ryman Frey, eldest son of Lord Walder's own eldest son Stevron Frey, who died earlier in the war leaving Ryman as Lord Walder's heir. Ryman gave Robb's crown to a prostitute, whom he sarcastically crowned the "Queen of the Whores", and takes to having her wear Robb's crown while he has sex with her in his command tent.
- Arya killing the Frey soldiers by pretending to be cute and starving, dropping a coin, then stabbing the man who picked it up was moved around from earlier in the books - Arya used this trick against a Bolton soldier when she was escaping Harrenhal (albeit the Boltons hadn't turned on the Starks yet). Arya's inner POV narration from the books includes an added joke which is lost in a TV adaptation: when she insists "but I'm hungry", she thinks to herself "but not for food" - she's indirectly telling the soldier she's hungry for revenge right before she kills him.
- Arya's line emphasizing that the Frey soldier was the first man she has killed is (as the in-episode guide points out) a reference to how the first person she killed was a Stableboy who tried to stop her from escaping from the Red Keep during the betrayal and massacre of her father's household.
- The final scene generated some negative attention from critics, who perceived colonialist undertones in having a platinum blond, pale-skinned aristocrat liberating a society of dark-skinned slaves.[2][3]
- Yunkai having uniformly dark-skinned slaves is technically inconsistent with the books, in which the Slaver's Bay cities took slaves from whatever population was at hand indiscriminately.[4] Indeed, the books make clear that the slave-masters basically just "enslave" anyone they are able to overpower and slap chains onto. Even passing ships from the Free Cities will be attacked in slaving raids and the children sold into slavery. The books explicitly state that several of Daenerys' Unsullied are ethnically Lysene, who are characteristically blonde haired, light-skinned, and blue-eyed. "Slavery" in Essos is similar to slavery in Ancient Rome and Greece, which was based on socio-economic more than ethnic lines. George R.R. Martin explained that the crowd of slaves was mostly composed of dark-skinned people as a side effect of filming the scene in Morocco using exclusively local extras.[5]
- Martin also reiterated that the "slavery" in Essos is much like the Greco-Roman version of socio-economic slavery: "Slavery in the ancient world, and slavery in the medieval world, was not race-based. You could lose a war if you were a Spartan, and if you lost a war you could end up a slave in Athens, or vice versa. You could get in debt, and wind up a slave. And that's what I tried to depict, in my books, that kind of slavery. So the people that Dany frees in the slaver cities are of many different ethnicities, and that's been fairly explicit in the books. But of course when David [Benioff] and Dan [Weiss] and his crew are filming that scene [of Daenerys being carried by freed slaves], they are filming it in Morocco, and they put out a call for 800 extras. That's a lot of extras. They hired the people who turned up. Extras don't get paid very much. I did an extra gig once, and got like $40 a day. It's probably actually less in Morocco since you don't have to pay quite the same rate. If you're giving 800 Moroccans 40 bucks each, you're not going to fly in 100 Irishman just to balance the racial background here. We had enough trouble meeting our budget anyway. I know for some readers, they don't care about this shit. But these things are about budget and realism, and things you can actually do. You are shooting the scene in a day. You don't have a lot of time to [worry] about that, and as someone who has worked in television this kind of stuff is very important to me. I don't know if that is answer or not. I made that answer, and some people weren't pleased with that answer, I know. They are very upset about that."[6]
- This episode was nominated for the 2013 Primetime Emmy award for Outstanding Cinematography For A Single-Camera Series.[7]

In a State of the Union address heavy on economics and education, President Barack Obama and his Republican competition gave the country a healthy dose of selective math.
Take, for instance, Obama's boast about the state of job creation on his watch. "After years of grueling recession, our businesses have created over 6 million new jobs," the president declared Tuesday night.
While the number itself is true, it hardly tells the whole picture. That figure covers the amount of jobs created only from February 2010 forward, while ignoring the 5 million or so jobs that were lost during his first 13 months in office.
The net gain in jobs on Obama' watch is a more modest 1.2 million when losses in the public sector are included.
Obama's Republican counterpart on the national stage Tuesday night, Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, had his own fuzzy take on economics while calling for a balanced budget amendment.
Rubio declared that the "real cause of our debt is that our government has been spending $1 trillion dollar more than it takes in every year."
While the gap is true, his assessment doesn't get directly to the cause of the suddenly bloated deficit: the worst recession since the Depression prompted increased government spending while also substantially reducing tax income. Revenues from both individual and corporate taxes fell markedly over the last few years, which hurt the government's bottom line, a fact the Florida senator omitted.
The president also gave a rosey assessment of the state of illegal immmigration, correctly noting he's put more border patrol agents (20,000 in all) on the U.S.-Mexico border than at any time in history. But when he suggested that the decrease in the rate of illegal immigration was due to his policies, he ignored the fact that immigration, both legal and illegal, drops during recessions as jobs dry up.
Obama also was a bit premature — about 12 years too soon – when he declared that "we have doubled the distance our cars will go on a gallon of gas."
The Obama administration has set a goal of doubling fuel efficiency. But it won't happen until at least 2025, and only then if automakers can hit the current goals they have agreed to.

OH, darn! Hopefully you'll run a regular challenge for this too at some point!
This was a pretty popular request in the suggestions forum, so we thought we'd go with it this month. Bear in mind that some of the best maps the guild has ever had the honour of hosting have been hand drawn to a greater or lesser extent.
Your map can be of anything and at any scale, provided that it is drawn by hand on a physical medium (e.g. paper, cloth, bark, vellum etc) This means:
- The entire piece, including the map, cartouche, neatlines, labelling etc must be hand drawn or hand written on a physical medium.
- No 'touching up' on the computer afterwards.
- Within the above restrictions you can use any media to draw/paint with (e.g. pencils, pens, inks, paints, pastels).
- For the avoidance of doubt: Computer tablets/pens are *NOT* allowed.
Scan your map or take a digital photo of it to present it here!
This should be a fun competition! We hope that there will be lots of participation (and laughs along the way). We think this is going to be a liberating experience!
The challenge will close on or about the 15th of December.

Hmm I think I have a good idea for this...we'll see...
Last edited by Engris; 11-22-2011 at 06:02 PM.
Just to be clear - you intend that we not even do compositing digitally? I wouldn't call that touchup, but I can see how it might be considered digital shenanigans :-). I would lean toward scanning text as an overlay separate from the linework, and sticking the two together in an app, but if that's "impure" for this competition I'll skip it. Any physical compositing should be ok, though, right? Mylar layers, post-it notes, holes cut in paper to show an underlayer..... So long as it makes the transition into digital in one go?
Cool challenge. Looking forward to the results. Please bring it to the regular challenge soon!
It has to be on paper only? I mean other material is ok too if it is done by hand? Or not?
Hello - I am a new member so do not know how to enter a drawing in this contest. When you have a moment, would you direct me?
Thank you,
Hi Gary,
Welcome to the Guild. You'll want to read the rules here: http://www.cartographersguild.com/sh...es-Please-Read.
For this entry just draw it up and create a thread (following the rules on that link) with your final entry (scanned and uploaded in this case). If you want to create a thread and post works in progress so you can get feedback, show off, or whatever then you can do that too. Easy as pie!
Good luck on it. This one looks like a great challenge.

It is time for Ash to have his rematch with Brawly. He decides to shake things up a little by using his new Corphish instead of Taillow on a new battlefield. With all the training Ash had to do up to this point, does he have what it takes to beat Brawly, or will he wipe out again and be all for nothing?
The gang goes to the island where Ash will make his rematch with Brawly. Meanwhile, Team Rocket is inside the cave on the island, seeing the food. Team Rocket, when they have blasted off, have got some devices for safer landing. However, James grabbed Meowth and they fall down into a hole on the island. Meowth is preparing food, but sees that James and Jessie are already eating, knowing that Meowth did not cook in his entire life.
Meowth eats, but sees that it is a can, so he throws it away. Brawly picks the can up and sees Team Rocket eating the food. Team Rocket believes that they found it first, so Jessie sends Seviper and James his Cacnea. Seviper uses Haze and Cacnea Pin Missile, but the gang dodges it. Ash is about to use Pikachu to fight, but Brawly stops him. The next thing is about to happen - Team Rocket is blasted off by a geyser they have been standing on.
Brawly then shows his training area on the island. Next he shows the battle field Ash and him are going to battle on. Ash is not going to use Pikachu this time, due to the strategy he developed, even if May and Max are sceptical if Ash has even a strategy. Brawly wonders how Ash developed, since their previous battle Ash only used brute force which got his Pokémon defeated.
The battle begins - Brawly sends Machop and Ash Treecko. Machop uses Karate Chop, but Treecko dodges, making Machop attack the rock. Ash says to Treecko that he should imagine that he bounces from rock to rock as if they were trees. Machop uses Karate Chop once more, but Treecko evades the attacks. Machop begins to be tired, so Machop uses Cross Chop, but fails, so Treecko uses Quick Attack to knock it down.
However, Machop stands still - Brawly tells Ash that he should work with nature to defeat him. Machop uses Cross Chop and the geysers start to work - Machop uses Cross Chop, but Ash calls his Pokémon back in time. Ash sends Corphish and it uses Bubble Beam, hitting Machop. Corphish uses Crabhammer, but Machop uses Karate Chop, blocking the attack. Corphish uses Crabhammer again, defeating Machop.
Ash praises Corphish, but Brawly sends Hariyama. Hariyama uses Arm Thrust, but Corphish defends himself using Harden move. However, Hariyama does not slow down as it uses Arm Thrust. Corphish jumps into water, with Hariyama following him. However, Hariyama can't actually swim, so it stays on a lone rock. Corphish jumps out and uses Crabhammer and goes back. Hariyama uses Arm Thrust, making Corphish appear from the water.
Hariyama uses Seismic Toss, immediately defeating Corphish. Ash has to bring Treecko, knowing that before he lost due to force. Hariayama uses Arm Thrust, but Treecko dodges the attack. Treecko uses Pound on Hariyama's legs. Hariyama uses Arm Thrust, but Treecko evades and pounds Hariyama's legs, weakening it. Hariyama attacks, but fails due to Treecko's attacks on the legs. Treecko, however, is becoming tired.
The geyser is starting to activate, so Treecko and Hariyama are thrown in air. Hariyama uses Knock Off and Treecko uses Pound. Hariyama and Treecko are on ground, but Hariyama is defeated. Brawly gives Ash the Knuckle badge, praising him for the tactics he used to defeat him.
