Old Batti
Wandering around Old Batti is particularly atmospheric late at night: cicadas call and water drips, but not a soul stirs on the eerily empty streets.
Wandering around Old Batti is particularly atmospheric late at night: cicadas call and water drips, but not a soul stirs on the eerily empty streets.
Two inscrutable ancient statues (admission free; dawn-dusk) stand in an appealingly shady forest glade at Maligawila (mali-ga-wila). The site is delightful and the surrounding village so diffuse that it's virtually invisible. Ferreted away among the trees lie the extensive 7th-century remnants of Pathma Vihara and its two lovely Buddha statues.
The mangroves, islands and waterways of Pottuvil Lagoon are a rich ecosystem teeming with giant monitor lizards, crocodiles, kingfishers, the occasional elephant (who does not like to be disturbed), eagles, peacocks, egrets and monkeys. Birdlife includes spoonbills, stilts, several kinds of kingfisher, sea eagles, pelicans and herons.
Deegawapi is the one place in southeastern Sri Lanka that the Buddha supposedly visited in person – and three times at that – making the place of particular spiritual importance to Buddhists. It was built during the reign of King Saddartissa (137–119 BC) and patched up in the 2nd and 18th centuries AD before becoming lost in the jungle.
At around 150m tall, this is the highest point in the area: from the top there's a wide panorama of views (travellers have reported spotting elephants at dusk). The site is said to be 1800 years old, and when the old temple, whose remains are to the left of the main shrine, was excavated in 1964, a gold casket containing a tooth of the Buddha was discovered.
One very good reason for venturing to Pottuvil is for the delightful two-hour mangrove tours. Outrigger canoes take visitors punting across the lagoon where you can potter about among the mangroves searching for mighty big and toothy crocodiles, monkeys making mischief in the trees and birds, birds, birds everywhere you look.
A massive and ancient dagoba (stupa) lies quietly hidden in a forest clearing at Yudaganawa (compulsory 'donation' Rs 100), just 3km west of the little village of Buttala. Only the bottom third remains, but the setting is charming and your imagination can run riot with thoughts of how amazing it must have looked back in its day.
Okanda is home to the Murugan Devale (a devale is a complex designed for worshipping a Hindu or Sri Lankan deity). Though relatively small, the main temple has a very colourful gopuram (gateway tower), which survived the 2004 tsunami and is a major point on the Pada Yatra pilgrimage to Kataragama.
The lighthouse and the coasts around it are a popular family excursion (avoid weekends). Swimming in the calm water, surrounded by sandbars and islands and inlets, is the main draw, though boat trips can be good for bird- and crocodile-watching.
The superb 4700-hectare site of Kudimbigala Forest Hermitage is a marvellous jumble of forgotten Sigiriya-style outcrops set in dense jungle. Over 200 shrines and hermits' lodgings are set in caves or sealed rocky overhangs here.
For years Nilaveli has been considered one of Sri Lanka's most perfect beaches. It certainly has that feeling of paradise-island remoteness, with plenty of bending palms swaying over the golden sand. Good it may be, but in reality things aren't quite as heavenly as they seem here.
Even in good times this 18,149-hectare park was not frequently visited. For the visitor, the result was a less 'zoolike' experience. However, with fewer staff to prevent poaching, the range and density of animals were also less The best-known feature is the 200-hectare Kumana bird reserve, an ornithologically rich mangrove swamp some 22km beyond Okanda.

Garden Watering Wand 4 4
Watering Wand Too early to tell whether it is a quality wand but so far so good. I plan on ordering two more. That should qualify for a five star? I think so. July 30, 2013
Works Great Wand is just what we needed. Doesn't leak like others we tried. July 19, 2012
Watering Wand is very nice It has a nice even spray, and length makes it much easier to reach plants at the back of the bed. Locking in the spray position is simply a matter of slipping a loop over the handle -- does the job! I'm pleased with the purchase. July 17, 2012

1 and 2. Can the New York Rangers get a victory in Montreal? Can they score a goal on Carey Price?
It's been bad times for the Broadway Blueshirts against Les Habitants. They haven't won a game in the province of Quebec since Mar. 17, 2009. Chris Drury got the deciding goal in a 4-3 shootout victory over Alexei Kovalev's Canadiens. They've scored one goal on the Canadiens in their last four contests against them combined. Apologies to Ranger fans to go further with this, but the last New York Ranger to score a goal on Carey Price at the Bell Centre? Mats Zuccarello on Jan. 15, 2011.
All things considered, Montreal is probably the last place the Rangers want to be, especially when they need a win tonight. The Islanders -- tied for eighth place in points, but lower on the standings due to games played -- will have already played by the time New York faces off tonight, so they'll know just how badly they need to break the Montreal/Carey Price hex.
3. Can the Islanders break the Penguins 14-game winning streak and move into playoff position?
The Islanders could really make some noise this weekend. They have a chance to go into Pittsburgh (who will not have Jarome Iginla on the ice yet), end the Penguins winning streak, and put themselves in the top eight in late March for the first time in a long time. If the Devils lose, it would set up a game in Newark on Monday that could vault the Islanders into seventh place. Ever since a 4-1 whitewashing of Pittsburgh at Consol Energy Center in January, the Penguins have beaten New York three straight. A lot is at stake for the road warrior Islanders today, however.
4. Can the Jets pull away from the Hurricanes in the Southeast?
The Carolina Hurricanes will enter and leave today's game in Manitoba with three games in hand on the first-place Jets. The question is whether they will exit six, seven, or eight points behind. A 60-minute victory, while not assuring anything, could have the Jets starting to finally make some distance between themselves and their mediocre division. Even with three games in hand, an eight point deficit is a lot to make up this late in the season. The Hurricanes could really use a victory in 60 minutes today.
5. Are the Sharks finally okay?
Probably not in a big picture sense, but how about the Sharks lately? Three straight wins, back in as comfortable a playoff spot as you can get in the Western Conference, a.k.a. three points away from ninth. They've beaten Anaheim twice and Detroit on their winning streak, so everything is cool in the Bay Area for the moment. How long until the bottom falls out again? The Sharks take on Phoenix tonight, a team that could really use two points. Will the Sharks continue their run?

A new
On January 20, be on the lookout for bonfires across the country and around the world, as ceremonial burnings of the Bush war doctrine light up the sky. A new administration provides an opportunity for change, after eight dark years of devastating wars and consistent violations of international law, matched by the shredding of the Constitution.
But even if the Republican reign of abuse of power and its drive towards empire is ended, it will take a powerful, mobilized antiwar movement across the United States – and indeed, around the world – to hold a new administration accountable to promises made, and to obligations undertaken and imposed.
The Bush administration came into office committed to an aggressive, militarized unilateralism – a tendency that skyrocketed after the September 11, 2001 attacks, when the White House used fear as a weapon to win public acquiescence to extremist policies which would once have met widespread outrage. Bush announced the "global war on terror" and used it to reaffirm and legitimize Americans' fears. The cost in human lives, especially in
Now there is a new opportunity. What is required to reverse the devastation these eight years have wrought?
First, the occupation of
All of that is step one. Only then we can begin the long process of making good on our real obligations to the people of Iraq: real reconstruction — meaning money that goes directly to Iraqis instead of to U.S. war-profiteering contractors — and reparations for the damage to the country that began with the first Gulf crisis in 1990. Fulfilling this obligation will be difficult at a time of economic crisis at home, but
Then there's
And beyond ending the existing wars, a new administration has the chance to reject the Bush administration's unilateralism and militarism, and build an entirely new foreign policy based on multilateral cooperation and diplomacy – a whole new paradigm that recognizes there is no such thing as "national security," there is only international security. But such a shift won't be easy.
It means shutting down the 1,000-plus military bases around the world that have become the most visible symbol of the U.S. drive towards empire and a major cause of anti-Americanism in every continent. It means recognizing that the decline of
And we can't assume that with a Democrat in the White House this transformation will happen automatically. It was Madeleine Albright, after all, then United Nations Ambassador for the ostensibly multilateralist
McCain has said he'll keep the troops in
The world always pays attention to U.S. elections – the U.S. president exerts power far beyond our borders. But this time, people are watching with an urgent demand for change – for a real transformation, not cosmetic tweaks – that is palpable across the globe. The world wants a United States that stands as a partner with the other nations of the world, not a U.S. empire standing as a colossus above all others. The new administration could make good on that global wish – and in doing so make Americans, and the rest of the world, far safer than we are today.

Since class action legislation was first passed by Quebec in 1978, all but one Canadian province has enacted similar forms of statutes – and the litigation risks to organizations have never been greater. Over the past decade there has been a steady rise in class action filings in Canada, including secondary market, price fixing, product recall, employment and pension cases, many of which have come on the heels of U.S. litigation and regulatory investigations.
Deloitte's national presence, interdisciplinary approach, and technological expertise can assist litigators, corporate counsel, mediators, arbitrators, insurers and judges throughout every phase of a class action. We offer the knowledge and relevant experience that's critical to securities, banking, insurance, brokerages, medical devices, pharmaceutical, product liability, overtime and competition law claims.
Our integrated class action services include:
Preservation of electronic evidence – the rapidly evolving world of electronic data, cloud computing, portable storage devices, instant messaging and social media, has had a profound impact on the risks inherent with collecting and hosting digital evidence. Our experienced practitioners have the technical expertise to navigate through the complexity of electronic evidence and find the key data for effectively litigating your class action.
Investigation - the complex business issues that arise during class action and mass tort litigation warrant the skilled interviewing and document review techniques employed by certified forensic investigators. Our investigations team can help the judiciary and counsel review the evidence and resolve class action disputes.
Data analytics – with increasing amounts of data compiled on potential claimants, our ability to mine electronic data and profile the identifiable class becomes a critical component in determining the size and characteristics of the class population.
Loss modeling and scenario development – loss estimation is the key to evaluating risk. We can quantify the damages associated with class action claims to enable counsel to develop litigation strategies, prepare for discovery motions, and evaluate potential resolution alternatives.
Voluntary compensation plans – dealing directly with claimants and offering restitution can help preempt a lengthy dispute and spare an organization's brand reputation. We can help develop a compensation plan that remediates potential class action exposure and reduces litigation risk.
Claims administration – the media profile and class member sensitivities that accompany class action settlements requires the dedicated focus of a proven court appointed administrator. Our experienced team routinely evaluate claimant eligibility and determine benefit entitlements within court mandated deadlines.
Expert witness testimony – qualified, independent expert witnesses and non-testifying experts represent valuable allies when preparing for and delivering oral arguments. Throughout all phases of a class action, we can help you educate courts and judges on litigation issues requiring functional knowledge and deep industry experience.

The second Michael Vick injury in as many weeks came at a rather inopportune time for the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Not than an injury to a team's starting quarterback ever comes at a good time, but for the second consecutive week, Vick had to leave the game while his team was still within striking distance.
Unfortunately for the Philly faithful, however, Vick's outlook for Week 4 isn't looking all that promising. Vick's broken hand is a "non-displaced fracture," rather than a clean break, according to Eagles coach Andy Reid in Sunday's post game press conference. The fracture is on the quarterback's non-throwing hand, but a crack in either hand can't be looked at as a good thing regardless -- especially considering that the quarterback is still probably dealing with the after-effects of the concussion he suffered last week.
The quarterback didn't have anything all that promising to say regarding his status for next week, either.
"I don't know anything right now, except my hand is broken and we have to figure out what is the next move," Vick told reporters after the game. Vick's outlook on his injuries was a lot less angry than when he was asked about his constantly being hit thus far this season, for what that's worth.

Summary: I've just started getting my head around the camcorder. The quality of the images is excellent and I love being able to capture photos at the same time as filming. I have set the camcorder so that all my pics are stored on an SD card, whereas the movies are stored on the hard drive - you can alter this as and when you wish.
I wasn't impressed with the panasonic software which came with it and have been trying out a free download of Magix which I quite like. As such, I would suggest if you purchase this product, you will also need to purchase a video editing programme. I like the size of the camcorder and it is very easy to use. The zoom is excellent and it will automatically brighten images far away once it is focused on them.
I have a 90ft garden and was able to pick up very clear images of my rabbits and other wildlife whilst sitting in my house. I would also suggest that if you wish to record longer scenes or images further away that you consider purchasing a stand to put the camcorder on. I am in the process of doing this as, although the camcorder reduces shake, it is inevitable there will be movement if you are holding it. The zoom function takes a little getting used too as it tends to zoom in and out VERY fast, or should I say the button to adjust the zoom is very sensitive.
As long as you only just touch the zoom button, you will master the technique of a slower zoom and therefore avoid losing focus. The battery life seems quite good, although I can't give an estimate time as I tend to switch it off and on over several days, however there is definately over 1 1/2hrs on the battery. You can also purchase a battery which lasts twice as long as the one supplied which may be useful to use as the main one and then use the provided one as a back-up. You can also use the camcorder whilst connected to the mains.
The mic is really good and I have had no problems with wind noise when outdoors, although we are having exceptionally good weather so I haven't used it in extreme BAD weather yet. Most of my recording so far has been outside and there are no issues with the quality. I haven't used at night or in low lighting. I would purchase this one again. The only issue is that I save everything in HD and my computer isn't quite fast enough to cope with playing these back, resulting in jumping.
However, you can record at a lower image quality and the video editing software that I am trying will also enable you to play back at lower quality.
As such, this is not causing any problems and is a pretty good excuse to upgrade my computer sooner rather than later.
Note, before you will buy this camcorder, you can check for best deal at my blog: hddcamcorderdeals.blogspot.com/p/hdc-hs80k.html
Hope my review is helpful.

This review is incorrect on camera at least HDC-HS80
by Psylencer on May 15, 2011
Pros: I ordered one just hasn't gotten here yet. Definitely need a comment section on the articles.
The specs in this article don't even match for basic stuff like optical zoom, or what their version of digital zoom is, if it is effective or not etc. Check pana
Cons: Reviewer didn't do a very good job I have to believe they never had any of these cameras in their possession, which in my opinion makes it impossible to review an item. makes me skeptical about trusting CNET to review anything I may be interested in. will
- Manufacturer: Panasonic
- Part number: HDC-HS80K
- Description: The model covers a wide range of shooting situations from close distances to faraway subjects. Using Intelligent Zoom that employs super-high resolution technology and the Crystal Engine PRO, it offers ultra-telephoto Intelligent Zoom shooting to exceed the magnification range of the optical zoom, up to a high-powered 42x zoom. It also features a 33.7mm wide-angle lens. to realize shooting at a close distance from the subject while fitting both the subject and the surrounding area into the frame. HYBRID O. I. S. is a optical/electrical image stabilization system. Further to blurring by vertical/horizontal wrist movements, it detects subtle blurring by vertical/horizontal entire arm movement and corrects them using a lens in the optical system and a sensor in electrical system. In electrical image stabilization, utilizing an unused area of the sensor when zooming, suppresses image degradation. Powerful correction realizes beautiful images even when shooting on the move or zooming. The evolved Zoom Mic links the microphone's action to the camera's action. When zooming in on a bird in the distance, for example, the microphones also zoom in on the bird in link with the lens zooming operation. The function also reduces the surrounding noise to about 1/3 (-10 dB) that of conventional models and realizes recording the sounds with superb clarity. The iA (Intelligent Auto), consists of six functions: Face Recognition, new HYBRID O. I. S., AF/AE Tracking, Intelligent Scene Selector, Face Detection and Intelligent Contrast Control, senses the shooting conditions and automatically makes the settings and activates functions that will deliver optimal results. With both motion and still images, iA does the bothersome settings for you and makes it easy to capture beautiful, well-focused images.

Embarkation was quick and easy. the staff were very helpful. Our luggage came to our room pretty quickly, however, my sons luggage didn't get to his room until well after dinner time.
I needed 2 cabins, one for my husband and I and one for my 2 sons and my nephew. We originally had adjoining rooms because one of my sons was added on after our initial reservation was made. Carnival told my travel agent that my adjoining room was only for 2 people and they put my sons and my nephew all the way down to 7155 which was in a completely different muster station God forbid something ever happened. And their phone kept not working inspite of several reports to the purser's desk. I couldn't even call them to make sure they were OK.I was very upset about that. All Carnival had to do was put the 3 boys in my room and put my husband and I in the 2 person adjoining room. That whole ordeal made no sense to me.
The ship was very clean and the food was never ending and quite delicious. We ate at Nick and Nora's one night and I have never had such tender lamb chops in my life as i did there.
Inspite of my disappointments I will sail Carnival again and again.

She has light pink hair that ombres into hot pink and is tied into pigtails in the back layers of her hair, and has a small read clip on the left side of her face. Inori has red eyes and small lips. Her Body is very pale and almost looks very fragial and long legs. Her usual fighting atire is a red leotard with the middle mostly gut out, red-orange spoilers with flowers on the side and high red gloves. She also wears a black camisole dress with white lining on the bottom and red ribbons on the bottom it when she is not fighting. When attending school, she wears the standard school uniform. She also wears a white outfit in replace of her red flowery leotard outfit.
Inori is first shown to be emotionless and only cares to follow Gai's orders. Inori was made by GHQ to "Contain Mana's mind". Mana lost her body on lost christmas but her mind still remains. Gai woke her up and gave her a name. Thus she shows absolute respect and devotion towards him. After meeting and living with Shu, she becomes more emotional. She also seems to think she's a burden to others but tries to protect the people close to her. She does not understand her own emotions, as shown in Episode 4 when Shu was captured, she did not understand why she felt cold or in Episode 10, she even had to ask Gai if she loves Shu or not. She is also shown to be a somewhat cold-blooded person; being able to kill enemies without much hesitation, but has shown a dislike of doing so. She is very sweet to her friends, but very quiet.
After Hare's death, Inori started to display a darker side noted by the fact that she killed or injured a group of students who attempted to undress her in hopes of revealing a tattoo, gleed maniacally before stabbing Arisa, and later injured a group of thugs while smilling. But the consciousness that led her to these actions was revealed to be Mana, who began to survive in Inori's body after a ritual was carried out in Episode 12. Inori, after finding out she was meant as a vessel for Mana, starts to wonder if her feelings and heart were real. She also starts to be bothered by the fact that she is a monster after regaining consciousness in the aftermath of Mana's actions. But in Episode 18, she resolves that even if she is a monster or that her emotions were fake, she would always be herself, as she was encouraged by Shu's words that Inori would always be herself regardless of her monstrous instincts.
As the series continues, her relationship with Shu changes. At first, she seemed very interested in Shu and declared that she was his. But in episode 5, she revealed her actions were Gai's orders to force him into the Undertakers. Despite the order, Inori has been shown to be gaining an interest in Shu, with Gai noting that she has fallen in love with Shu in Episode 10. After Shu takes over the school, she supports him by giving him emotional support through the trouble times. She is extremely loyal to Shu; as shown in Episodes 17 & 18, she was the only one running to his defense, even willing to sacrifice herself to keep Shu safe. Shu showed the world to her of its sadness and its beauty revealed by Inori in Episode 21.
As a member of the "Funeral Parlor", Inori is extremely skilled in forms of combat such as hand-to-hand fighting and marksmanship, to the point where she is able to outmatch and kill several soldiers of the "GHQ" forces by herself. Like Yuu, she displayed the ability to render a person unconscious with a simple touch to their forehead.
As a vessel of Mana, the patient zero of the Apocalypse Virus, it seems that her blood has the ability to delay the symptoms of those infected by the virus. Her body can be also used to communicate with Mana via unknown means (perhaps through telepathy). After Mana's death and the transfer of consciousness to Inori, Inori started to display violent instincts of Mana, as shown when she attacked Arisa, during which she produced a crystal spike of sorts to stab her. As time went on, Inori started to display more and more of Mana's abilities due to her constant contact with those whose Voids contained pieces of Mana.
In Episode 18, this culminates as she adopted a new form where her hair became longer and wilder with several crystal spikes appearing around her back, waist and arms and two crystals forming in her cheeks. In this form her physical abilities are greatly enhanced, and she can use the spikes in her hand as blades. With this form she fought in a berserk-like fashion and was able to destroy multiple Ghost Endlaves before being captured by Gai himself, who had to use Yuu's Void to catch her by surprise.
Inori's Void manifests as the Singer's Sword: a massive broadsword at least twice as long as herself. Her Void stands as one of the powerful ones shown in the series.
Inori is seen running away from what is believed to be the "GHQ's" base, holding the 'key'. However, before she could meet up with Gai, the "GHQ" military endlaves catch up to her and attack her, causing her to be injured. She tells Fyu-neru to carry the 'key' to Gai so that she could face the enemy force without losing the key.
However, Ayase soon appears for support, and she tells Inori to hurry while she covers the situation. Inori runs again only to be knocked off the edge of the bridge by an enemy's missile and falls into the water. She takes shelter in the abandoned grounds of what used to be the Tennouzu University. Later, when Shu arrives at this location (where he does his after school activities), he finds Inori there and tries to talk to her. Soon however, members of the GHQ arrive to take Inori away, telling Shu he would get in trouble if he defended her, causing him to duck in fear. Inori then loses consciousness when she was kicked in the face by one of the men and is taken away. She is seen again being threatened by the same GHQ members, saying they will attack every resident in the neighborhood if she didn't tell them where it is. However, Inori doesn't show a single bit of fear and sits quietly, saying nothing. The GHQ then gives pe rmission for some of it's members to attack the residents of the town. Due to the attacks happening all over the place, the truck Inori was held in was attacked but she escaped unharmed. Shu saves her from being attacked again but at the same time the 'key'
(which is revealed to be called the Void Genome) which was in Shu's pocket breaks. Inori asks Shu to "use her" and Shu pulls the weapon out of her,resulting in a bright light shooting upwards to the sky much to everyone's amazement. After this Inori looses consciousness and awakens when Shu brings her to Gai. Inori seemed sad when Gai states that he was disappointed in her for failing the mission, saying that the Void Genome was for his use and watches as Gai and Shu talk about her Void and what the "King's Power" is. She is later seen watching Gai tell the rest of the Undertaker what the plan was to rescue the hostages along with Shu, who agreed to the plan.
To carry out the first stage of the plan, Shu and Inori had to sneak through a vent with Inori to the front of him (she didn't know that Shu was looking at her butt). They reach they're destination and witness the cruelty of the GHQ and she gives Shu words of encouragement when he was hesitant, saying she belonged to him now. After they win the battle Shu goes to school normally, rejecting Gai's offer to join them only to witness, to his shock, that Inori is his new classmate. Everyone in the class is amazed that the Egoist singer was their classmate and began talking to Inori until Yahiro intervenes, saying they should calm down because she'll be with them for the rest of the year. Later, Inori enters Shu's home with the help of Fyu-neru, much to his shock.She changes her clothes in front of him and then proceeds to tell him that she wanted rice balls. After she ate she revealed that she knew about Shu's mother and he is impressed that she did a background check on him.
Inori then asked Shu if she was a burden to him and when he wonders why she was there, Inori replies saying it was to protect him. They are interupted by Yahiro, who appears at his front door. He said that Shu was acting weird so he decided to come to watch a movie together and is shocked to see Inori there too. She states that she has received a message and that they should go and Shu follows her. They soon meet Gai who says that someone from his school witnessed the events that happened the day before and states that the only way to make them forget is to take out their Void.
They go along with the plan and Shu calls out the rules that make the Power of Kings work. They go after their first target, which is Kanon, however, Shu's power doesn't activate and he ends up groping her. Afterwards, Shu confesses that he gets nervous whenever he has to look someone in the eyes, since eye contact was critical when using the Power of Kings, as stated by Inori. She teaches him how to look someone in the eye without being nervous.
They test this out on Souta, who is seen unconscious after. Shu says he's finally gotten the hang of it and proceeds to remove all the students of the school Voids. Inori explains further on what Voids are before Kanon finds them and Yahiro appears, telling them to follow him. It is soon revealed that Yahiro was indeed the one who saw what Shu did the day before and yells at Shu saying that he shouldn't
pretend they were friends before having his Void pulled out by Shu. Later, after Shu tells Inori to not shoot Yahiro, they made a promise to each other, that Shu wouldn't say anything about the Norma Gene and Yahiro wouldn't say anything about the Undertaker. However, this promise is broken when Yahiro pushes Shu out of a train when they were traveling to school the next day. Inori looks in shock as Shu is arrested by the GHQ who is accompanied by Segai. Inori goes back to school and is saddened and upset over Shu's arrest. She however, builds up the courage to rescue Shu by herself. She jumps off a tower and falls only to float after the effect of Kido's Void. Shu pulls out her Void and destroys all the mecha in the area. She is seen unconscious in his arms after, as Shu joins the Undertaker. She appears along with Gai as Shu is introduced to the rest of the Undertakers and helps him learn how to shoot a gun, but gets up too close to him allowing her chest to touch his back.
They blush and Inori tells him not to get close to her. She meets with Shu later and asks him why he came with her. Shu however, is unable to give a straight answer and asks her if they could leave together. She refuses however, saying Gai gave her a name and a world, so she can't leave. Inori reveals to Shu that Gai told her to say and do everything up until now and that she had no feelings for him. Shu is heartbroken at this and runs after her only to find Gai and Inori going into a room together. Inori and Gai are seen in the room, with Gai hooked up to a machine getting blood from Inori. He tells Inori that she looks more like her everyday and she asks if it bothered him. He replies saying he didn't know. She also watches as Shu passes his mock battle until they receive news that Gai might be dead, to which she showed great worry. They eventually regain contact and they save Gai, who tells them they'll have to think of a different plan.
However, Shu protests, saying that they'll put too much people in danger. Inori watches as Shu runs away after he gets embarrassed and follows him. She tells him to do exactly what she says and allows him access to Gai through her DNA on a glove. She is seen listening outside soon after.
On the day if the mission she, Gai, Kido and Shu sneak through the GHQ's base to destroy the Leukocyte. There, she tells two Anti Bodies to stay away or she'll kill them. However, they charge towards her and she shoots them, earning a shocked reaction from Shu. After the Leukocyte malfunctions, Inori appears before Shu but with a different voice. She asks him if he wants to save everyone and he says yes. She smiles at him and reveals a completely different Void, which was formed by joining her Void with Kido's. She is seen looking up at the sky after waking up soon after.She is seen later returning to school with Shu, who is very nervous about it. Upon arrival, they are immediately questioned by a few students, who say that they are criminals. Shu holds Inori's hand and pulls her away, something she carefully looks at. They hear a slap from behind and look back, only to see Arisa slap a the boy who said those things to them.
Later at Shu's home, Haruka sees Inori and notices the resemblance between her and the girl in Shu's memories but shakes it off. On the day of the 'party' Inori is seen with Tsugumi and Ayase who watch as Shu and Gai carry out their plan and rejoice when they become victorious.
In Episode 8, Gai told Shu to take his friends which include Sota, Hare, Kanon and Inori to summer island. Shu must use Sota void to unlock the gates on the island to take the stone of beginning, so he planing to use Inori as a decoy and bring Sota out and pull his void, later Sota and Inori were coming together to the beach side, but Shu hide in bush and watch them. Sota shows his own han made video to Inori, It's the Music Video of Euterpe likes shu did before him, and Inori says "it's so beautiful". Shu cannot hold it, he ran off from bush where he hide and pull Sota void out before says "Inori is mine!". In the end, while they head back to Tokyo, Shu feels curious about void why they have different shape, and why is void. He ask Inori, she says The Void will change by people hearts change too.
Later on the mission, Shu must take Inori's void to fight, but he can't do it and run away from Inori, so Gai have to dismiss the mission. Shu says to give up from Funeral Parlor, and wants to live like normal people. After he went home, he found Inori's waiting for him to says farewell and give him the new brand music, but Shu lost his consciousness, and saw Inori as Mana illusion with Cancer like monster. He slap Inori's hand out and the music drive was break apart and says Monster!. Inori cry and says it's doesn't matter and walk out from his room.
A few days later Funeral Parlor planning to take the stone of beginning back, so they will takeover tha plane at the airport which will take stone to other country. Before the mission, Inoti asks Gai about Shu, she feels curious about Shu and not sure if is she loves Shu? because she feels that way, but Gai avoid it and says we'll talk about it later.
The mission started Gai's group takeover that plane which they believe the stone's on it, but it's a decoy and the plane hit a tower of airport. At the same time the stone of beginning started to sing, and lots of people almost turn to cancer crystal like they infected Apocalypse virus, Gai appears some cancer too. Inori feels this song is not right, she feels the chaos that's going to happen and screams out. "Stop It!". Everything's went worse, Inori and Gai run into the airport tower and found Haruka, Inori asks her to help in something, Meanwhile Funel found Shu in movie's club in school, it's Tsugumi, she says everything was destroyed because he didn't come to help, and because of that Gai and Inori might die soon, and then he's got his consciousness back, and he call everyone who he ever pull void to him, he needs help, because he cannot let the Funeral Parlor die, he needs to rescue Inori.
Inori stands on the top of the radar building in the airport and sings Euterpe, and the lights that stand over the building cure the people affected with the crystal cancer. Gai's cancer disappeared and he was able to rest. Shu came with his friends to rescue Inori. Using their Voids, he managed to defeat the obstacles and reach Inori.
However, just as Shu was about to reach Inori, a mysterious boy appeared from behind her and pull her Void out, which forced her to stop moving. The boy attacked Shu with Inori's Void, but it ended up slashing Gai, who protected him. Inori was then taken away by the young boy.
Inori was used as a sacrifice to bring back Mana, so she could cause another outbreak of the virus around the world but Mana's rebirth was prevented by Shu and Gai, however the sacrifice was already over and Mana infected's in Inori body, in the end of this chapter Shu's holding Inori and watch GHQ quarters disappear, and Inori says to Shu that she could hear Gai says thank you.The whole city was chaos, Apocalypse Virus was spread away, Shu Inori Tsugumi and Ayase hide in the school, And they try to find a way to escape together. Sota had an idea to make culture festival to cheer everyone up and have concert of Egoist in the festival.
Inori has a split personality which actually is Mana's infected side like stabbing Arisa's hand and killing a group of bandits. Inori started to fear that she might end up killing Shu if it continues. Inori remembers that telling her about her void but remarking that Inori is Inori, which made her finally know even if she is a monster with a fake heart and emotions to her she is the real one.After they can escape from school through red line, some group of student want to revenge Shu, same as Gai appear and cut Shu's right arm out, and power of king was absorb to Gai. Inori hold Shu and run from Gai, they were together all time. Shu feels hopeless by lose his power and his right arm. One day Shu heard some music and found Inori sings Euterpe. Inori stop and come to Shu, she says thank you and she'll always be on his side, then she makes him sleepy and go out, and fight with Ghost unit. She use Apocalypse crystal as weapons like the claw, which is the power from the unfinished sacrifice, it's Mana power. In addition she fells to Gai, he use the bow void and shoot her, which it become rope and stop her.
Gai take Inori to top of the headquarter tower, pull her up and wait to erase her memory, use her body as Mana's vessel. Before Inori's almost devoured, Gai blame himself because he helps Inori out from that day, but Inori didn't feel that way. She grateful that she could survive, because she could feels the experience,and that let her meet Shu, who shows the regrets side of this world to her. She says it's sad but beauty Shu suffer and doubted himself, he hurt people and she felt shame of what he did, and that's the reasons why Inori's love Shu. Shu show her the way to live like human, even she knows the truth that she's not human,
Mana was reborn in Inori's body. Shu arrived by that time, Mana go to Shu, but he puch her off and darn to Mana. Mana felt sad and angry, she let Gai use her void, which is same void as Inori's. Shu began to fell, but then he saw some lights from Inori's flower crystal, her tears as crystal let Shu use her power, her void and Shu meet Inori. Inori tells Shu not to give up, helps everyone and stops Mana.
After Shu defeats Gai, Inori is restored. She appears in front of Shu, almost crystallized, and walks towards Shu blindly and embraces him. She cannot see Shu and climb to find him, but Shu holds her hand and says "let's go", then Shu put his hand up and absorb crystal cancer and Apocalypse virus to him. Just when Shu is about to also be fully crystallized.
Inori tells Shu to take the 'Guilty Crown' (a form of Cat's Cradle) which he accepts, and Inori's fading away in front of him, thus saving Shu while Inori breaks away.
- In Episode 16, Inori started talking the same way Mana did. At one point, she also, at the end of the episode, stabbed Arisa after giving her a maniacal smile; This could mean that Mana's rebirth was not actually prevented. This fact was later confirmed by Haruka Ouma in Episode 20.
- Inori's character bears resemblance to Pandora girls from the Manga Freezing. Both Inori and the girls have special auras or voids in this case, that can be used as weapons in combat. Both have male partners and both fight to protect the world from the apocalypse (in Freezing, aliens called Nova from another dimension).
- Like many other anime girls (and some guys), Inori entered Saimoe Contests.

According to multiple published reports, Kansas City police have confirmed Chiefs LB Jovan Belcher died in in an apparent murder-suicide on Saturday.
The Kansas City Star and NFL.com reported the news of Belcher's death.
Multiple reports say Belcher, 25, shot himself in Arrowhead Stadium's parking lot after allegedly killing a woman reported to be his girlfriend at a Kansas City residence, according to Kansas City police.
According to NFL.com and The Star, Kansas City police have identified the deceased woman as 22-year-old Kasandra Perkins.
The Chiefs announced Saturday afternoon that Sunday's game vs. Carolina will be played as scheduled at 1 p.m. Eastern, with the decision stemming from "discussions between the league office, head coach Romeo Crennel and Chiefs team captains."
Per multiple reports, Kansas City police said Crennel and general manager Scott Pioli were among the club personnel who encountered Belcher at the stadium. According to The Star, which cited police, the team tried to keep Belcher from "committing additional acts of violence."
Kansas City police captain David Lindaman told The Star that Belcher spoke with Pioli before taking his own life.
"There was no threat and it was quite friendly, from what I understand," Lindaman told The Star. "The Chiefs organization had been very supportive of him and he was expressing that.
Lindaman told The Star that Belcher's mother was home when Belcher is alleged to have shot his girlfriend. Belcher and the woman had an infant daughter, according to multiple reports.
According to USA Today, the child is safe and with family.
"The entire Chiefs family is deeply saddened by today's events, and our collective hearts are heavy with sympathy, thoughts and prayers for the families and friends affected by this unthinkable tragedy," Chiefs chairman and chief executive officer Clark Hunt said Saturday in a statement issued by the club. "We sincerely appreciate the expressions of sympathy and support we have received from so many in the Kansas City and NFL communities, and ask for continued prayers for the loved ones of those impacted.
"We will continue to fully cooperate with the authorities and work to ensure that the appropriate counseling resources are available to all members of the organization."
According to NFL.com, the league released the following statement in regard to the events in Kansas City:
"Our thoughts and prayers are with the Chiefs and the families and friends of those who lost their lives in this terrible tragedy. We have connected the Chiefs with our national team of professional counselors to support both the team and the families of those affected. We will continue to provide assistance in any way that we can."
The NFL Players Association, in a statement released Saturday, said it was "deeply saddened by the events today, and we have been in touch with the Kansas City Chiefs players. We offer our sincerest condolences to the families affected."
"Devastated. One of everyone's favorite teammates including one of mine," Chiefs TE Tony Moeaki wrote on Twitter on Saturday. "Great great great teammate. We will miss him forever.
In his next post, Moeaki added: "I'm devastated for everyone involved."

Comments about TIMBUK2 Goody Box:
I bought two of these for two different bikes and used one for the first time today on a long ride for keys, credit cards, money, and snacks. Given that it is made for the top tube it is sold on accessibility. It is not accessible. The quality of the zipper is poor, and you literally need to fight to open it. It is also awkward. There is no reaching in to easily grab anything while you are riding or even when stopped; you literally have to fight the zipper.
I am returning both.

Countless 80's bands released new or re-released material in 1999, mostly to little attention. But Def Leppard, remaining true to their 'guilty pleasure' form, remains in the spotlight with Euphoria, a return to their over-produced, big-balled sound that made them famous. This is the sound of a band who has found that balance between formulaic songwriting and experimentation. They alienated most of their audience with the nonetheless excellent release 'Slang' so they returned to what works without comprimising originality as they did on 'Adrenalize'. Euphoria rocks hard and true and is still catchy enough to land a purely 80's sounding single (Promises) in the #1 spot for a month. The rest of the album is more than listenable, as well. It opens and closes with two huge bangs called Demolition Man and Kings of Oblivion. It's got two vintage-epics in Paper Sun and Day After Day. The ballads are loose and not too generic, and it's even got an instrumental, something Leppard hasn't recorded since High n Dry. Vivian Cambpell seems to have revived the Leppard guitar attack, as well, he plays with a fire under his arse and Phil Collen has caught it as well. Euphoria is a well-worthy addition to any rock fan's library. It's certainly one of the best releases of 1999.
Def Leppard Biography - Def Leppard Discography - All Heavy Metal Bands
Australian edition of the hit British rocker's 1999 outing with two unmarked bonus tracks added, 'Worlds Collide' & 'Under My Wheels'. 15 tracks total, also featuring the singles 'Promises' & 'Goodbye'. 1999 release.Tongue firmly in cheek, Def Leppard vocalist Joe Elliott once referred to his band's wildly successful anthemic hard rock as "deep and meaningless." Indeed, while peers of the Sheffield punters were scrambling to embrace successive waves of punk, new wave, alternative, and post-whatever, the Leps stayed true to their arena-rock roots and became one of the most successful, if least hyped, bands of the 1980s and early '90s. Only their 1996 album Slang bowed to market trends; its disappointing showing only spurred a return to familiar form on Euphoria. The band also brought producer and de facto sixth band member Robert "Mutt" Lange back into the fold for a trio of tracks, including "Promises," a seamless wall of hooks that outshines even the band's Pyromania and Hysteria prime. And if the Lep-Lange lineup bats only .333 (faltering on the goofy, Prince-ly funk of "All Night" and the bubble-gum pop of "It's Only Love") this inning, they redeem themselves with balladry that beats post-Diane Warren Aerosmith at their own game ("Goodbye") and enough glossy energy ("Demolition Man," "Back in Your Face," "Day After Day," "King of Oblivion") to reclaim their strange niche on the pop plateau midway between AC/DC and Abba. Though they've largely been left out of the critical debate, Def Leppard long ago established their credentials as power-pop monsters with the public. All that's left for the pundits to decide is: Def Leppard–band out of time or band for the ages? –Jerry McCulley

Metal Album Reviews[RSS]
Def Leppard, those English Lads (with the exception of Vivian Campbell — sorry, Vivian), whom we've known and loved since their inception in the early 80s, are back with a new album. Joe Elliott, Phil Collen, Vivian Campbell, Rick "Sav" Savage, and Rick Allen are back in your CD players and escaping through your stereo speakers. Yeah, that's right — you've heard me correctly. So, like, what year is it anyway? 1999, right? Def Leppard's last release was Slang, the black sheep of the Def Leppard catalog. That was in 1996. So, if I know my math, that's three years, instead of four or five, right? Just kidding, chaps . . .
So, Slang was the last effort by the Lep Lads. Now, I know . . . I have eyes and ears and Internet access . . . so I KNOW that Slang went over about as well as watching grass grow on a sunny afternoon would. That's a shame, I'll tell you, because these guys can't win, eh? Slang was too different, too left-turn, for the typical stubborn Lep fan. Well, not this fan. She thought Slang was one of their best efforts (that's another review altogether), and it's still one of her favorites. So crucify me. There, I said it publicly (and I'll say it again). I never did run with the crowd . . .
Well, I can tell you folks who haven't heard this latest release, Euphoria, that it sounds NOTHING like Slang. I would say that this piece of work is a mix of Pyromania and Hysteria. I guess, you could say it is like Adrenalize, too, since I think that disc sounds like Hysteria II. Nothing wrong with that at all . . .
So, the boyz are returning to their roots, sort to speak. So, what do we have here for our listening pleasure? The disc starts off with an awesome, fast-paced, highly infectious rocker called Demolition Man. Next up at the plate is the first single release, Promises. This song is full of harmonizing and has a slight poppy feel to it, but it's likable.
Song #3 is a thumper of a song full of attitude called Back In Your Face. Oh yeah, baby. You said it, not me. Very cool song, indeed. Following that attitude, we turn down a notch with a beautifully lilting ballad called, Goodbye. I'll tell you one thing, these chaps can sure write a bewitching ballad. No snickers, fellas, that takes talent. Ballads will always be in style, say what you want about them, and Def Leppard does the job with beauty and finesse. This is one of their best.
Song numero five is a song titled, All Night Long, which is reminiscent of the song, Slang. It's similar, but not as fast-pasted as Slang. This song, as well as Slang has one thing in common: to these ears, they have similar qualities to a Prince (uh, excuse me, THE ARTIST FORMERLY KNOWN AS PRINCE . . . whew, don't want to make THAT mistake) song. It appears they've been experimenting with a little bit of "dance-ability" to their music.
Now, this next song, Paper Sun, is one of the best on the disc. This song starts out moody, and then — bam — it hits you. Then, it goes back to a moody, mid-tempo theme. This song is so good, and has so much feeling to it — definitely a highlight. Next up to queue is It's Only Love. This is a mid-tempo type of ballad with lots of melody and rich, full harmonies, as well as a chock load of "na na na na na's" thrown in there for good measure. It's a good song, but not as good as Goodbye.
Song number eight, 21st Century Sha La La Girl, is another fast-paced, vocal-rap rocker with a catchy chorus. I dare you to try not to tap your toe to this one, or to get the chorus out of your head. Another ballad follows next, titled, To Be Alive. The beginning of this song is reminiscent of Love Bites from Hysteria. It's a lovely song, and it comes close, but Goodbye is still a SMIDGEN better.
Disintegrate, a rocker-instrumental, is next. Nothing overly exciting about it, except it would fit really well during an action scene in a movie. I appreciate instrumentals, but they have to really hit me between the eyes with either their complexity, beauty, or jam-ability. This is just . . . some rock riffs. Not bad but not exceptional. I figure, they stuck this song in there so you could take a leak in between or get a snack, kind of like the way a commercial functions as an intermission from a TV program. Guilty is next, and I don't feel guilty in saying that it's a NICE song. What I mean by a nice song is it's full of those melodies, it's mid-tempo, it's pleasing to the ear, but it doesn't stand out.
Ooh, now this is exciting. A gem of a song called, Day After Day, is next, and this is one of those really cool songs that reminds you of the days of Pyromania. This is classic Def Leppard all the way with the rocking beat, the moody, wailing guitars, and Joe's voice singing full of angst emotion. Last, but not least, is Kings of Oblivion, which is a high-octane rocker full of ferocious emotion. If I remember correctly, I recall actually hearing this song on the radio before this disc was released, and not knowing who sang this song. The voice sounded familiar . . . but I couldn't place it until I had the disc home and listened to it. Nonetheless, awesome song, and a great way to end the disc.
I have to add one thing I despise of that this band does: They don't include the lyrics inside the disc. I'm a lyric person — a lover of words — and guys, I want to see your words. So, I say to the band: Include the bloody lyrics next time. I tell ya, you and those Aerosmith guys are greedy with your lyrics. Yeah, I know Slang had the lyrics, but EVERY disc should have it. When you have something to say, and you say it as well as a band like Def Leppard does, YOU INCLUDE THE LYRICS. Okay, I vented. )
And so, the question now posed to the listener is this: Are you euphoric after listening to Def Leppard's newest release? Well, for me, I think it was a smashing effort on their part — simply bloody smashing. I think they captured the sound that the fans have loved them for all along. This disc reeks of classic Def Leppard, hearkening back to the good ol' days when the radio played real music by real bands. Playing-wise, the band gets better and more seamless, and Joe Elliott's voice gets better with age. So, what are you waiting for? It's time for a little Euphoria.
© Written by Diane Trautweiler on July 11, 1999.
First of all, the album "Slang" was never a disappointment. This album needed some "air time" on the radio, which It never did! Never heard one song on tha radio. Songs such as "Breath a sigh", "All I want is everything" would of been smash hits. Not only those two, but the rest of the other tracks would been also. Big Def Lep fans would understand im trying to say, and the peeps that havnt got a taste of Def Lep, watch out…..! Euphoria is an album that kicks these artist in the head….., pop, rock, hip-hop, and heavy metal. Its that good. The tracks are uplifting, juices you up to start the day and go till night. Buy it, it wont disappoint you. "I GUARANTEE IT"
Def Leppard claims that Euphoria is a return to the Pyromania/Hysteria sound and style. That isn't quite what I hear when I listen to Euphoria but this is a good album, anyway.The rockers fare better on this album moreso than do the ballads. The fast-paced "Demolition Man", the epic "Paper Sun" and the '70s glam rock-influenced "21st Century Sha La La La Girl" are the highlights on this excellent release. Other noteworthy songs include the dark "Day After Day", the radio-friendly rocker "Promises", the catchy "Guilty" and the Satriani-like instrumental "Disintegrate". Unfortunately, as I stated earlier, the ballads keep this album from being a five star cd. But that's okay, Def Leppard is back.Is Euphoria Pyromania plus Hysteria? No. I find that while Euphoria does have many similarities to Hysteria, the similarities to Adrenalize, Retro Active and even Slang are stronger than the Pyromania similarities. If you took the best moments off of Retro Active, Slang and Adrenalize, mixed it with the powerful pop-metal of Hysteria, you'd end up with Euphoria. So, in a way, Euphoria is the best of Def Leppard.Euphoria is Adrenalize on steroids, it's Hysteria injected with the best of Slang. It's the best of post-Pyromania Def Leppard.
I've been a huge fan of Def Leppard's for a long time. I have every one of their albums and every single one of them is great. With this new release,Euphoria, Def Leppard goes back to basics and brings out some of their best work. Mutt Lange is also back with Def Lep and worked on three songs with them, Promises, All Night, and It's Only Love. The album starts out with Demolition Man, a fasted pace song that basically says that they are here and they won't take sh** from nobody. Euphoria also has the ballads, Goodbye and To Be Alive. Def Leppard also has an instumental on the album, Disintegrate. This whole album is great and anyone who says Def Leppard died with the 80's, tell them to listen to this album. Move over Limp Bizkit, Korn, and Kid Rock, Def Leppard is here to bring true Rock N' Roll back to the 90's.

Owners are comparing it to a House of Blues or Hard Rock Café. Chris Pitts, the head of the new Meridian Live, says the venue will be a place for people to get quality entertainment and food while providing the beach with something they don't have a lot of -- space.
There's no doubt about it. The old Publix on Hutchison Boulevard is huge and will take a lot of work to fix it up. But, before that comes the hard part. The Meridian Live crew held an open house Tuesday to answer any questions and go over future plans for the building. Basically, to sell themselves to their neighbors.
Complete with a convention hall, restaurant and lounge, Pitts says it will be everything that the clubs aren't and cater to a growing crowd on the beach -- families and those over the age of 25.
"That's why, like I said tonight, we want to get everybody on the same page," said Pitts. "Let them see the plans, let them hear what we want to do with this facility.
"And I'm pretty sure that everybody that's taken the time to see what this facility is going to be is going to be happy to have it in Panama City Beach."
The easy part will come next. Monday December 9th owners will hold a planning meeting and then it's on to construction permits with the city. They hope to be open early next year in March or April.

Perhaps no group in America has suffered more from Communism than the Hmong community.
The CIA first recruited the Hmong, impoverished tribes living in the hills of Southeast Asia, to help fight the Communists in Vietnam and Laos. When the Communists won in Vietnam and then Laos, the Hmong were persecuted and sent to camps for their anti-communist role. Eventually many found their way as refugees to the United States. They faced opposition from the Clinton administration, but strong support from Republicans enabled most to come to America as immigrants.
How do the Hmong vote?
It's not always easy to pick out the voting patterns of smaller communities, like the Hmong. One has to take account of many confounding factors, ranging from participation rates to the voting patterns of other communities.
Nevertheless, it seems pretty clear that the Hmong vote Democratic.
There are several lines of evidence behind this statement. Firstly, Hmong elected officials – individuals such as former Minnesota State Representative Cy Thao and former Minnesota State Senator Mee Moua – belong to the Democratic Party. Secondly, Democratic candidates tend to attend official Hmong events. For instance, only Democratic candidate Al Franken attended this Hmong townhall meeting; Republican candidate Norm Coleman was invited but declined the invitation.
Finally, polls indicate that the Hmong vote Democratic. This poll found that 57% of Hmong identify as Democrats, while a mere 4% identify as Republicans. Done before the 2008 presidential election, it also showed Democrat Barack Obama gaining 65% of the Hmong vote, to Republican John McCain's 4% support.
Those are some pretty stunning numbers. Even if the poll is badly flawed, or has a very leftward bias, it seems safe to say that the Hmong are a strong Democratic constituency.
There is a good reason for this; the Hmong community is quite poor. Indeed, 30.2% of Hmong-Americans receive public assistance income, more than triple the rate amongst Americans overall. Democratic economic policies tend to favor the poor more, and this is a strong draw for the Hmong.
But it's still quite shocking that the draw of the Democratic Party's economic policies is so strong as to produce a 57-4 registration advantage among the Hmong. One would think that the Republican Party would do better. After all, Republican lobbying is the reason why many Hmong are today in America, instead of refugee camps in Thailand.
Moreover, the Democratic Party is closer ideologically to the Communist Party which the Hmong fought for decades. This is why Cubans and Vietnamese-Americans, also refugees from Commmunist persecution, vote Republican. And the Hmong have certainly suffered from Communism; Democratic Hmong politicians Cy Thao and Mee Moua both had families who came from Thailand refugee camps.
The ultimate irony is that the very economic policies which put the Democratic Party closer on the ideological spectrum to the Communist Party are the reason why the Hmong vote Democratic.
