The Atom Ant Show made up a half-hour of the popular Atom Ant/Secret Squirrel Show. These cartoons spoofed the then-popular superhero and spy genres, respectively, and enjoyed immense success themselves.
The star of the show was a very able arthropod who could not only fly, but also lift more than ten times his own body weight. Atom Ant communicated with his superiors via the antennae on his helmet, awaiting their orders to go capture an array of enemies, whose names were conveniently listed in Atom's "Crook Book." Even though Atom was not so easy to see, he could always be heard, shouting his battle cry of "Up and at 'em, Atom Ant!"
Though he packed a mean punch alone, Atom Ant shared his half-hour with other HB cartoon characters. Precious Pupp, a conniving dog with a very raspy laugh, lived with Granny Sweet, who was always speeding off on her motorcycle, leaving Precious to play man of the house.
Also on the bill were The Hillbilly Bears, a clan who lived in the mountains and lazed around to the sound of the banjo. Paw Rugg, the muttering head of the family, spent most of his time asleep, awaking only to blast someone off his property with a shotgun. Maw Rugg smoked a pipe and ran the house, while daughter Floral and son Shagg were constantly wreaking havoc and avoiding responsibility.
Atom Ant split off from its parent show to become The Atom Ant Show for several months, but at the start of the 1967 fall season, ant and squirrel were reunited for another year of The Atom Ant/Secret Squirrel Show. Also shown in 1970's "The Banana Splits And Friends Show", a syndicated, half-hour repackage of "The Banana Splits Adventure Hour.

Hot on the heels of yesterday's leak, Tecmo has released a trailer officially confirming Mila as a new character Dead or Alive 5.
With an official announcement comes some blurb describing the new fighter's all-important back story:
"Mila is an up-and-coming MMA champion who has scored spectacular victories all over the world. She spends her days training at the gym in between shifts at her part-time job, honing her skills as a lightning fast, orthodox striker with a strong follow-up ground game. Mila also feels intense admiration for a certain fighter, and she has entered the fifth Dead or Alive Tournament to follow her dream of taking on her idol in the ring.
Blah blah. Basically, you're going to hammer buttons and she's going to hit people in the face. Mila is the second all-new character revealed for DOA5, debuting alongside Rig.
The game's out on September 25 in US and September 28 in EU.
Here's the trailer:

Easy combat hints-An easy way to defeat any enemy is to not use any weapon. Raziel is faster on his feet, and his attacks are quick. It takes about two minutes to defeat the Fire Demon by doing this. Using the Soul Reaver for one or two strikes is not bad. However, make sure to finish it off barehanded to see Raziel go by its head, take hold of the horns, and twist its neck. |

When Faustus jumps on to a heater, proceed towards the start of the mist trail that leads to the heater and pull the switch to hurt him. Keep repeating this procedure until he jumps up on to a chain, then run to a corner of the room and stay there until Faustus jumps down . He will now try jumping and kicking you from far away. If you sidestep his attack, he will hit the wall and will be vulnerable for a few seconds. Keep repeating this until he is dead. |
Moving through swamp easierIn the swamp, you can easily get stuck in the mucky water. if you have the Air Reaver imbued, you will glide through as if you are walking. |

InvincibilityWhen you have all the Elemental Reavers, go to the castle where you began. Use the Fire Reaver on the floor. It has the sign of the Fire Reaver and is orange. Plunge the sword into it, then get the light. Use it on the door, then proceed until you get to a room where the Soul Reaver is located. Mobius will appear and insult Raziel. He will then take the Soul Reaver and be invincible. Note: You will suck blood instead of souls and also fight all Raziel's brothers and Raziel when he was human. |
Defeating demonsTo defeat demons quicker, stand in a doorway and fire projectiles at them then feed on their souls. This works best if they hit a wall as you fire. |

Are You Trapped In An Abusive Relationship?
The challenge in taking this action on your own behalf is to learn to disengage both physically and energetically — which is why singing a happy song is so important. Singing moves you out of your programmed reactive left-brain wounded self and into your spiritually-connected right-brain, energetically stopping your engagement in the interaction.
While disengaging in this way doesn't guarantee that your relationship will heal, it may be the only possibility you have other than leaving. Perhaps it is worth a try!
To begin learning how to love and connect with yourself so that you can connect with your partner and others, take advantage of our free Inner Bonding eCourse, receive Free Help, and take our 12-Week home study eCourse, "The Intimate Relationship Toolbox" – the first two weeks are free!

A Polish retailer seemingly broke the street date for the game last week ahead of its planned release next month, and copies of the game are now up for sale on eBay.
Capcom told CVG in a statement today: "Capcom is currently undertaking a thorough investigation into reports that Resident Evil 6 is being sold ahead of its official October 2 release date.
"At this time, all we can add is that it would appear this unfortunate incident is limited to a small quantity of stolen copies of the German USK PlayStation 3 version of the game."
Get our latest thoughts on the game in these Resident Evil 6 preview videos published last week.


text: It is a tired old clich -local kids done good, started a company on a shoe string budget, received mentoring from wise elders, became the youngest locals to secure angel financing, and are now building their company into something great. It's the story of Dexrex. First, a little background: One of the toughest challenges for Internet services is the movement toward data mobility. Companies like Facebook and Google require data about their users to provide their services, track trends, improve their sites and, place advertisements. Of course, to stay competitive, these companies keep each user's information inside their "walled gardens", refusing to let users bring their profile information and records with them. Dexrex, a local Internet start up, is a web service with a new twist. They have created a system for archiving, indexing, and managing text chat in real time across all Instant Messaging (IM) clients, protocols, and services as well as on Blackberry phones. Using this system, users can reclaim their IM and text messaging history from these walled gardens and bring their records wherever they like. Some of the current IM platforms, such as Google's Gtalk, already provide basic recordkeeping. However, many people use multiple chat clients on more than one computer and message on their phones as well. Unfortunately, companies like Google do not let people take their records with them if they want to use a different chat service. Dexrex is now the first company to help people reclaim their information to keep a complete record across all their services at the same time, including Gtalk, AOL Instant Messenger, Skype, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, and mobile phones-just to name a few. They are also quite proud of the fact that they launched this type of service before Google, or anyone else, got around to it. CEO and co-founder Derek Lyman called this accomplishment a "small student victory". If not a "small" victory, it certainly was a "student" victory. Lyman, along with his partner Richard Tortora, started Dexrex while they were still students at UMass Amherst. Like most college kids of their generation they used IM a lot and wanted to improve it. "Anything to avoid doing school work" Lyman said with true collegial spirit. When Lyman and Tortora first hatched the idea, they decided to test it by creating a program to listen in on their own IM conversations over the school network. Once they had their program running, they were a bit surprised and concerned to see that every conversation in their dorm became entirely visible. Also, chat records seemed to be stored so that anyone with access to a person's computer can read their conversations. It became clear to the two that chat records needed to be kept in a much more secure and private place than the chat systems themselves. Eventually this idea evolved into the current Dexrex service. It did not take long for Lyman and Tortora to realize that if they wanted to turn their idea into a real company they were going to need some coaching and mentoring on the business end of things as well as some all important capital to fund the company. They found all of the above through the UMass Entrepreneurship Initiative(EI) program, and The River Valley Investors (RVI), Springfield's angel investment group. Paul Silva, an alumni of UMass Amherst, was the leader of EI when Lyman and Tortora went to the program for mentoring as well as to enter into their business plan competition. The competition provides mentoring as well as seed capital. Silva's company, Angel Catalyst, manages RVI, a group of veteran entrepreneurs and investors who pool their talents, networks, and resources in order to find the best possible deals to invest in. RVI members often volunteer to serve as judges in EI's business plan competition. The mentoring and advice that these experienced investors can give to young entrepreneurs is priceless. One of those investors, who agreed to serve as a judge for the EI business plan competition, was Glenn Hanson. Hanson is one of RVI's most active and effective members. Upon seeing the Dexrex presentation and meeting Lyman and Tortora, Hanson was impressed enough to not only invest his own money into the fledgling student-led company, but also recommend Dexrex to present to RVI for additional funding from other members. The presentation was a success and two other RVI members invested in Dexrex after completing the necessary due diligence. "The EI program, Paul, and Glenn, all helped us out tremendously," Lyman said. "They allowed us to transition from running a dorm room operation into running a real company. It went from a student project into a real business venture." "I am incredibly impressed with Glenn," Lyman remarked "he has been an absolute joy to work with". Lyman had similarly positive comments about Silva, as well as Paul Gelinas; another RVI member who invested in Dexrex and served on their board of advisors alongside Hanson. Lyman is optimistic about the future of Dexrex, but not unrealistic or overly rigid in his plans. "This has the potential to be a huge play. Most people don't realize that it's their own records that let Google and other sites customize their services and place the advertisements that keep them in business. By putting people back in control of their own information, I think we can help them get more out it than companies let them today." Lyman noted. "Google indexes the web's content; we help people index their own communications over online social networks. We're a little like a bank for your personal information. The tech savvy can often try to do this sort of thing for themselves with enough time, but we want to help everyone else get access to their own information." Lyman informed, "I know this is going to get done, and I want it to get done right. That's why we're doing it ourselves." Lyman told me that Dexrex has received significant online press, both here in the US and internationally. Popular technology Web sites such as Lifehacker.com, DownloadSquad.com, Mashable.com, and Yahoo Messenger's own blog have each featured the Dexrex service. The company has since experienced significant growth. The company is currently planning on raising another round of financing in the near future. They will be seeking out new investors as well as offering fresh opportunity for their existing investors. The money will be used to further expand the company as well as expand its services to more mobile phones and international users. As far as exit strategies go, Lyman is confident but always open to new suggestions. While he would enjoy remaining the ultimate decision maker at Dexrex, he would not be opposed to a buy out from a larger company, such as Google, so long as he was confident they would run the company to his satisfaction. "I just want to make sure this is done right" Lyman reaffirmed. What Dexrex is attempting here is tied into a technological shift much larger than themselves. They are, like Google or Facebook, part of the IT revolution that is defining their generation. At twenty-three, Lyman and his team are part of the first wave of the "millennial" generation, the first to grow up using the Internet, cell phones, and social networks. A generation that, for the most part, takes for granted the transformative nature of these new technologies and lacks adult memories of a time when they did not exist. They have only started to take advantage of the opportunities this new IT paradigm has created by offering a service that, en mass, older generations may still find a bit alien. If they are successful they will be one of the standard bearers for this brave new world of IT. If not they will have given it the proverbial (and literal) college try. The latter seems unlikely though, as folks with this sort of intelligence, drive, and ambition usually end up not just attaining, but redefining the American dream, generation after generation. About Dexrex: Dexrex is about getting more out of instant messaging. They want to give people the tools they need to preserve their memories, understand their relationships, and enrich their social lives. They believe that if they can preserve, illustrate, and facilitate online conversations and relationships, they can make the online world personal again. They can be found online at www.dexrex.com.

A centuries-old royal conspiracy. The ultimate heir hunt… It should have been a quiet weekend in London – a long overdue visit with the only true friend American genealogist Jefferson Tayte ever had. Now his friend lies bleeding in his arms and Tayte must follow his research to understand why, making him the target of a ruthless, politically motivated killer. Working with historian Professor Jean Summer and New Scotland Yard on what becomes a matter of British national security, Tayte soon finds himself in a race to solve a three-hundred-year-old genealogical puzzle. It takes them all on a deadly, high stakes chase across London as Tayte tries to connect the pieces and work out the motive behind a series of killings that spans twenty years. In what is Tayte's most personal assignment to date, The Last Queen of England combines historic fact with fiction, challenging British history as we understand it. It uncovers a conspiracy that if proved could ultimately threaten an institution that has lasted more than a thousand years: the British monarchy.
About Simon
Simon is an actor who found his way into audiobook narrating as a side-gig and seems to have made a success of it. With some training as an actor as a child (just a couple of hours a week, but it stuck) and 15 years working inside the BBC (ending up as one of the presenters/newsreaders on BBC Radio 4 in London) he found the ideal combination for an audiobook narrator. Found his way to California two decades ago and never left.To The Grave by Steve Robinson
Inspired by the author's own family history… To the Grave follows American genealogist, Jefferson Tayte, as he uncovers the disturbing consequences of a seemingly innocuous act in 1944 that was intended to keep a family together, but which ultimately tore it apart. His research exposes hidden pasts and the desperate measures some people will take to keep a secret. Sitting in a hotel room at gunpoint, facing an impossible decision, Tayte is forced to wonder how his latest assignment had come to this. Five days earlier, after a child's suitcase arrives unexpectedly at his client's home in Washington DC, Tayte embarks upon a journey that takes him back to England as he tries to unravel the story of Mena Lasseter – a girl whose life has become a family mystery. Hoping to reunite his client with the birth mother she never knew she had, having no idea that she'd been adopted, Tayte's research draws him back to wartime Leicestershire and the arrival of the US 82nd Airborne, which irrevocably changes the course of Mena's life. But as Tayte tries to find out what became of her and why she was separated from her suitcase all those years ago, he soon finds that he is not the only one looking for her. Someone else is determined to get to Mena first and it quickly becomes apparent that their motive is a secret worth killing for.
In The Blood by Steve Robinson
Family history was never supposed to be like this…
When American genealogist, Jefferson Tayte, accepted his latest assignment, he had no idea it might kill him. But while murder was never part of the curriculum, he is kidding himself if he thinks he can walk away from this one.
Driven by the all-consuming irony of being a genealogist who doesn't know who his own parents are, Tayte soon finds that the assignment shares a stark similarity to his own struggle. Someone has gone to great lengths to erase an entire family bloodline from recorded history and he's not going home until he's found out why. After all, if he's not good enough to find this family, how can he ever expect to be good enough to someday find his own?
Set in Cornwall, England, past and present, Tayte's research centres around the tragic life of a young Cornish girl, a writing box, and the discovery of a dark family secret that he believes will lead him to the family he is looking for. Trouble is, someone else is looking for the same answers and they will stop at nothing to find them.
The Damnation Game by Clive Barker
There are things worse than death. There are games so seductively evil, so wondrously vile, no gambler can resist. Amid the shadow-scarred rubble of World War II, Joseph Whitehead dared to challenge the dark champion of life's ultimate game. Now a millionaire, locked in a terror-shrouded fortress of his own design, Joseph Whitehead has hell to pay. And no soul is safe from this ravaging fear, the resurrected fury, the unspeakable desire of…
"I have seen the future of the horror genre, and his name is Clive Barker," Stephen King has written. Fortunately, this first novel (Barker has published short story collections) more than bears the weight of King's praise. Barker is a better writer than King, and his characters are just as interesting. Set in modern Britain, the story thrusts a flawed "innocent"parolee Marty Straussinto an epic conflict between wealthy Joseph Whitehead and Mamoulian the Cardplayer, a centuries-old creature with whom Whitehead had struck a bargain to obtain his wealth and power. Whitehead reneges, and the resulting struggle is played out primarily on his fortress-like estate. Barker's excellent writing makes the graphic, grotesque imagery endemic to current horror fiction very effective. Highly recommended anywhere horror fiction is popular.
A Burnable Book by Bruce Holsinger
In Chaucer's London, betrayal, murder, royal intrigue, mystery, and dangerous politics swirl around the existence of a prophetic book that foretells the deaths of England's kings. Bruce Holsinger's A Burnable Book is an irresistible historical thriller reminiscent of the classics An Instance of the Fingerpost, The Name of the Rose, and The Crimson Petal and the White.
London, 1385. Surrounded by ruthless courtiers–including his powerful uncle, John of Gaunt, and Gaunt's artful mistress, Katherine Swynford–England's young, still untested king, Richard II, is in mortal peril, and the danger is only beginning. Songs are heard across London–catchy verses said to originate from an ancient book that prophesies the end of England's kings–and among the book's predictions is Richard's assassination. Only a few powerful men know that the cryptic lines derive from a "burnable book," a seditious work that threatens the stability of the realm. To find the manuscript, wily bureaucrat Geoffrey Chaucer turns to fellow poet John Gower, a professional trader in information with connections high and low. Gower discovers that the book and incriminating evidence about its author have fallen into the unwitting hands of innocents, who will be drawn into a labyrinthine conspiracy that reaches from the king's court to London's slums and stews–and potentially implicates his own son. As the intrigue deepens, it becomes clear that Gower, a man with secrets of his own, may be the last hope to save a king from a terrible fate.
Medieval scholar Bruce Holsinger draws on his vast knowledge of the period to add colorful, authentic detail–on everything from poetry and bookbinding to court intrigues and brothels–to this highly entertaining and brilliantly constructed epic literary mystery that brings medieval England gloriously to life.
The Devil's Breath (A Dr. Thomas Silkstone Mystery) by Tessa Harris
A man staggers out of his cottage into the streets of Oxfordshire, shattering an otherwise peaceful evening with the terrible sight of his body shaking and heaving, eyes wild with horror. Many of the villagers believe the Devil himself has entered Joseph Makepeace, the latest victim of a "great fog" that darkens the skies over England like a Biblical plague. When Joseph's son and daughter are found murdered – heads bashed in by a shovel – the town's worst suspicions are confirmed: Evil is abroad, and needs to be banished. A brilliant man of science, Dr. Thomas Silkstone is not one to heed superstition. But when he arrives at the estate of the lovely widow Lady Lydia Farrell, he finds that it's not just her grain and livestock at risk. A shroud of mystery surrounds Lydia's lost child, who may still be alive in a workhouse. A natural disaster fills the skies with smoke and ash, clogging the lungs of all who breathe it in. And the grisly details of a father's crime compels Dr. Silkstone to look for answers beyond his medical books – between the Devil and the deep blue sea…
The Emperor's Blades by Brian Staveley
The emperor of Annur is dead, slain by enemies unknown. His daughter and two sons, scattered across the world, do what they must to stay alive and unmask the assassins. But each of them also has a life path on which their father set them, their destinies entangled with both ancient enemies and inscrutable gods.
Kaden, the heir to the Unhewn Throne, has spent eight years sequestered in a remote mountain monastery, learning the enigmatic discipline of monks devoted to the Blank God. Their rituals hold the key to an ancient power he must master before it's too late.
An ocean away, Valyn endures the brutal training of the Kettral, elite soldiers who fly into battle on gigantic black hawks. But before he can set out to save Kaden, Valyn must survive one final horrific test.
At the heart of the empire, Minister Adare, elevated to her station by one of the emperor's final acts, is determined to prove herself to her people. But Adare also believes she knows who murdered her father, and she will stop at nothing – and risk everything – to see that justice is meted out.

The Ghost Writer by John Harwood
In this tantalizing tale of Victorian ghost stories and family secrets, timid, solitary librarian Gerard Freeman lives for just two things: his elusive pen pal Alice and a story he found hidden in his mother's drawer years ago. Written by his great-grandmother Viola, it hints at his mother's role in a sinister crime. As he discovers more of Viola's chilling tales, he realizes that they might hold the key to finding Alice and unveiling his family's mystery-or will they bring him the untimely death they seem to foretell?
Harwood's astonishing, assured debut shows us just how dangerous family skeletons-and stories-can be.
From Publishers Weekly
Sly nods to spooky literary spinsters—Henry James's Miss Jessel and Dickens's Miss Havisham—set the tone for this confident debut, a gothic suspense novel with a metatextual spin. Gerard Freeman grows up on the windswept southern coast of Australia in the late 20th century with a controlling mother strangely silent about the details of her childhood in England. His only solace is steadfast English pen friend, Alice, to whom he confides everything. What was Gerard's mother, Phyllis, hoping to escape when she left England? The protagonist slowly pieces together his mother's past with the aid of short stories written by his great-grandmother, Viola. These cunning tales, filled with supernatural occurrences and séances, are seamlessly embedded in the main narrative, offering Gerard—and readers—enticing clues into his troubled family's history. After Phyllis's death, her newly liberated son travels to England, hoping to learn more and to pursue elusive Alice. As he searches through the country house his mother inhabited long ago, Gerard finds past and present fusing in horrifying fashion. In the hands of a lesser novelist, sustaining several plot lines might have been difficult. But the novel links textual investigation and sublimated passion, building to a satisfying, unexpected ending.

Winter Warrior by James Wilde
1067. The battle of Hastings has been lost and the iron fist of William the Conqueror has begun to squeeze the life out of England, but there is one who still stands against foreign invasion – Hereward, the winter warrior.
Following the devastating destruction of the Battle of Hastings, William the Bastard and his men have descended on England. Villages are torched; men, women and children are put to the sword as the Norman king attempts to impose his cruel will upon this unruly nation. But there is one who stands in the way of the invader's savagery. He is called Hereward. He is a warrior and master tactician and as adept at battle as the imposter who sits upon the throne. And he is England's last hope.
In a Fenlands fortress of water and wild wood, Hereward's resistance is simmering. His army of outcasts grows by the day—a devil's army that emerges out of the mists and the night, leaving death in its wake. But William is not easily cowed. Under the command of his ruthless deputy, Ivo Taillebois—the man they call 'the Butcher'—the Norman forces will do whatever it takes to crush the rebels, even if it means razing England to the ground. Here then is the tale of the bloodiest rebellion England has ever known—the beginning of an epic struggle that will change England forever.
Writing on the Wall by Tom Standage
Papyrus rolls and Twitter have much in common: They were their generation's signature means of "instant" communication. Indeed, as Tom Standage reveals in his scintillating new book, social media is anything but a new phenomenon.
From the papyrus letters that Cicero and other Roman statesmen used to exchange news across the Empire to the rise of hand-printed tracts of the Reformation to the pamphlets that spread propaganda during the American and French revolutions, Standage chronicles the increasingly sophisticated ways people shared information with each other, spontaneously and organically, down the centuries. With the rise of newspapers in the nineteenth century, the nature of communication changed; increasingly, especially as radio and television, the "mass media," came to dominate in the twentieth century, information was centrally controlled. However, with the advent of the Internet, the story has come full circle, and the spreading of information along social networks has reemerged in powerful new ways.
A fresh, provocative exploration of social media over two millennia, Writing on the Wall constantly reminds us how modern behavior echoes that of prior centuries—the Catholic Church, for example, faced similar dilemmas in deciding whether or how to respond to Martin Luther's attacks in the early sixteenth century to those that large institutions confront today in responding to public criticism on the Internet. Invoking the likes of Thomas Paine, the celebrated Madame Doublet in the French Revolution, and Vinton Cerf, co-inventor of the Internet, Standage explores themes that have long been debated: the tension between freedom of expression and censorship; whether social media trivializes, coarsens or enhances public discourse; and its role in spurring innovation, enabling self-promotion, and fomenting revolution. As engaging as it is visionary, Writing on the Wall draws on history to cast new light on today's social media and encourages debate and discussion about how we'll communicate in the future.

Cheese Grits Nuggets
Hirsheimer & Hamilton
Provided by: Taste Editors
If I walked into a bar that served these tasty nuggets as snacks, I might never leave. Luckily for my wallet, these little puppies (they're similar to hush puppies but creamier and more intense) are easy and cheap to make at home. The idea for this appetizer/side dish/snack came from a Brooklyn restaurant called Peaches HotHouse, which specializes in Southern food. There the "grits fries" are served alongside fried chicken. I've added a lot of cheese to make them into a decadent yet homey finger food. Serve them for breakfast or dinner, with cocktails, or when you're watching the game. These nuggets are great on their own but are even better when dipped in Souped-Up Mayo.

- 3 cups water
- 3/4 cup grits
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 ounces cheddar cheese, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
- 3 cups vegetable oil for frying

Roll the rectangles in the cornmeal mixture, then fry them in batches, turning, and reheating the oil to 425°F before frying the next batch, until golden, about 4 minutes per batch. Transfer the nuggets to paper towels to cool slightly, and serve.
- Souped-Up Mayo: Stir together the mayonnaise, lemon zest, juice, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Very good. Both problems - firstly an accident on the Chuo freeway which led to us taking some 80 minutes to go 20 kilometres on Day 1 and led to a tour rearrangement and time compression in the afternoon then on Day 2 the weather closing in about midday when I was in Owakudani, were clearly beyond the control of anybody. Keiko (tour guide Day 1), excellent. However I thought that lunch could have been shortened given the arrival delay.

It was simply beautiful. Traveling to and from the peak of Mt. Komagatake was like visiting two worlds. The clear blue sky, verdant peaks and crystal water give way to a hazy ethereal land of mist and wind; a stark contrast that makes the trip really outstanding.

We really enjoyed this tour. Although we have lived in Japan for years we had never been to Hakone. When a visiting family member asked us to go, we were a little hesitant about the price, set up etc, but found that this was a perfect trip if you want balance. The first day we were able to see Mount Fuji, take a boat ride on the beautiful Lake Ashi, a cable car ride and enjoy an amazing lunch. In the evening we were taxied to the hotel (which was ok), and then go to a local onsen. In terms of controlled tour that was it, but that is where the fun began. The next day we were able to go on all of the local transportation with our handy all access pass. We were able to eat black eggs, see volcanos, ride ropeways up mountains and tour on our own until we caught our Shinkansen back to Tokyo station. If you want a balance of tour and individual tour, than this is the option.

Robert Downey Jr. still hasn't officially signed on to Avengers 2. Contract negotiations between Downey and Marvel have almost certainly been complicated by the fact that Iron Man 3 has become the fifth highest-grossing movie worldwide in history, with a total foreign gross that's currently only $100 million less than what Avengers made. (Avengers made much more domestically, though. Clearly, only Americans understand the appeal of evil attacking space-skeletons.) READ FULL STORY

Joss Whedon has joined Twitter
Geek auteur Joss Whedon has crafted beloved cult TV shows, endearingly low-budget experiments which prominently feature Nathan Fillion, and also that one ridiculously popular movie about witty-banter action figures. But now, Whedon is embarking on his most exciting and dangerous journey yet. As of about nine hours ago, Whedon has joined Twitter, with the handle @JossActual. (Although not yet Twitter Verified, the account has been Sister-In-Law Verified.) Whedon is already busy with a wide variety of projects — Avengers 2, Agents of SHIELD, the impending release of Much Ado About Nothing, the Firefly reboot you keep trying to will into existence, the Dollhouse reboot we just invented — but the writer/director is already twittering away on the tweetbox: READ FULL STORY
Trailers often reveal too much about a movie. But what happens when they don't?
"Well, now I feel like I've seen the whole movie," is an increasingly common complaint about movie trailers. Studios' marketing strategy is frequently to lure viewers into the theater with a peek at a movie's biggest fight sequence or most compelling twist, a promise of what people will see if they buy a ticket. But there are some trailers in recent years that have mastered the art of creating a sense of mystery and avoiding spoiling key surprise moments.

Joss Whedon's 'Much Ado About Nothing' bus is why Vine exists
It begins. God help us. #waytooearly-joss twitter.com/MuchAdoFilm/st…
— MuchAdoFilm (@MuchAdoFilm) March 7, 2013
The Much Ado About Nothing bus trip to SXSW (which has affectionately been named "Bus Ado About Nothing") has taught us a whole new way to live vicariously through social media. Since Joss Whedon tweeted "it begins" late last afternoon, we've been inundated with photos upon photos from the MAAN cast. We've squealed with glee and cowered with terror, but mainly we've just been really really jealous.
Some of the best social media to emerge from this trip is the Vine videos mainly "produced" by comedy duo BriTANicK (aka Brian McElhaney and Nick Kocher). Here are some of our favorites from the road.
When the Bard met Joss Whedon: Watch the first trailer for 'Much Ado About Nothing'
Joss Whedon, a man who in his time has played many parts, has another piece of entertainment about to be unleashed on the stage world, but this time it's not a special effects-laden superhero movie or an uber-meta horror flick. His latest project is a film adaptation of William Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing, shot on a shoestring budget in Whedon's own Santa Monica, Calif. home during what was supposed to be his post-Avengers "vacation." The first trailer for Much Ado hit the web today.
The black-and-white film gets a jazzy treatment (with St. Germain's "Rose Rouge") in the trailer that crescendos into a rather intense, soapy feel considering this is a comedy — words like "Obsession," "Power" and "Deception" flash across the screen toward the preview's end. Many faces familiar to fans of the Whedonverse make an appearance, including Nathan Fillion (Firefly), Fran Kranz (Dollhouse, Cabin in the Woods) and Clark Gregg (Avengers). The quick-witted couple at the play's center, Beatrice and Benedick, are played Amy Acker (Angel, Cabin in the Woods) and Alexis Denisof (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Dollhouse).

EW's Entertainers of the Year: Joss Whedon on how 'The Avengers' exposed his angry inner Hulk
There are good years, and then there are great years, and then there are the kinds of years that Joss Whedon had in 2012. In May, Lionsgate released Cabin In The Woods, the long-delayed, widely acclaimed po-mo horror flick, co-written and produced by the cult pop auteur. (Drew Goddard co-wrote and directed the film.) In July, Whedon attended Comic-Con and celebrated the tenth anniversary of his gone-too-soon TV series Firefly at one of the most emotional panels the annual fan-fest has ever seen. In September, Whedon went to the Toronto International Film Festival and premiered Much Ado About Nothing, a micro-budget, literally homemade adaptation of the Shakespeare comedy. "That was an incredible experience," recalls Nathan Fillion, who stars in the film (set for release next summer). "The man got three standing ovations before he got on stage. That's just indicative of the kind of fandom that Joss creates. I have never seen anything like it." In October, The CW aired – for the first time on television – Whedon's 2008 Emmy-winning online opus Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. Shortly before Halloween, the man who created Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel and Dollhouse took to the Web to say a few words about the defining issue of the 2012 presidential campaign – a zombie apocalypse – via a very funny, very personal, very partisan video viewed by over 7 million people.
Oh, and there was Marvel's The Avengers. Whedon wrote and directed that, too. Grossed $1.5 billion worldwide. Maybe you saw it.

Not so with Kate Hudson. In November 2005, the actress sued The National Enquirer after the tabloid published pictures of her under the headline "Goldie [Hawn, Hudson's mom] Tells Kate: Eat Something! And She Listens!," suggesting, according to Hudson, that she was anorexic. In July 2006, Hudson won her libel suit against the paper, which printed an apology and paid an undisclosed amount of damages for the distress it caused her.
Earlier that year, in February 2005, Ashley Olsen sprang to action after The National Enquirer published a report titled "Ashley Olsen Caught in Drug Scandal." The billionaire businesswoman and actress sued the tabloid for $40 million, accusing the magazine of libel and invasion of privacy.
According to the lawsuit, the photo accompanying the story was "clearly designed to create the misimpression that she was 'drugged.'" Olsen also took issue with the Enquirer linking her to her-then boyfriend Scott Sartiano, who at the time, was being investigated by the FBI for allegedly selling ecstasy and cocaine. (His case was dismissed by a federal court in Los Angeles in November 2005.)
The tabloid apologized to Olsen in October 2005, printing a clarification notice that read, "The National Enquirer wants to make clear to its readers that, by its cover and headlines, it did not intend to accuse Ms. Olsen of being involved in any drug scandal." Phone calls to Olsen's representative to determine if she also got a monetary settlement were not immediately returned.
In 2000, singer Celine Dion sued The National Enquirer for publishing a story falsely claiming she was pregnant was twins. Dion won $20 million from the magazine, in the form of a donation to the American Cancer Society, along with a printed apology and full retraction.
Actor Patrick Swayze, who is battling pancreatic cancer, blasted the Enquirer for its March 6 story about his health, headlined "The End." The piece said he had just five weeks to live.
The star of the movies "Dirty Dancing" and "Ghost," and the TV series "The Beast" said in a statement: "It's amazing to me that the tabloids such as The National Enquirer print such negative stories about me and my health when there are so many positive things going on in my life right now. I've started a new chemotherapy and, once again, I am one of the lucky ones with pancreatic cancer that is responding well to the treatment. I hope in the future, the press will think twice about printing inaccuracies and painting an unpleasant picture when I have so much to be thankful for at this time."
While lawsuits and scorn likely won't stop The National Enquirer, or any other tabloid or blog, from targeting celebrities, their star subjects may find some comfort in the following facts. According to the Magazine Publishers of America, in 2000, the Enquirer boasted a circulation of approximately 2.1 million issues per week in the U.S.; as of 2007, that figure dropped to about 1 million.
The Inquirer is owned by privately-held American Media, Inc., based in Boca Raton, Fla., which also publishes health and fitness magazines.

Wow these new spoilers are very appealing, I don't see the interrest in seein' HS dyin' at the same time as Nuri, very anti-climatic.
How the hell has Oka survived? Did he had a spare life because we can all say that he was clearly killed by the crazy alien.
I don't why y'all mad about Nerdo tryin' to rez Anzu because of Katou's bravery, I mean K-man saved his ass and as shown more heroism/bravery (nearly foolish) in the last battle of the mission. Considering that the Osakans haven't really done something to save any member of the Tokyo team, we can consider Nerdo as very impressed by our main protagonist's will to save everyone.
Izumi's probly the only one who can be revived by Katou, considering Kei was outside the mission and was erased from the memory of Gantz. Personally I wouldn't mind seein' that cold-hearted mofo coming back with the Tokyo Team, he might unfold more content alonside with Nishi and maybe a "real" way to revive Kurano...
Can't wait tomorrow where the Osakan mission will finally end.
I am going to go read it now. I'll have the answers for you within the hour.
You wouldn't have a scanner by a chance??
An inside man capable of scanning would be invaluable...
@turel: I don't have one but am planning to get one. I guess I could at least take photos with my cellpone.
ANYWAY, I JUST READ IT. Very good chapter. THIS IS WHAT REALLY HAPPENS (to the best of my short term memory):
HS and Nuri are fighting.
Katou HASN'T pulled the trigger yet but is locked on.
Cherry and Reika also have Nuri in their sights.
All three are wondering whether HS is friend or foe but seem to lean toward foe.
Katou seems to want to kill both. Thinking of Ayumu and Kuruno he THEN fires the H gun.
HS escapes the blast just in time, but he doesn't appear again in the chapter. He flies off somewhere immediately after the shot goes off.
Meanwhile, Katou's shot destroys Nuri just as Nuri's eyes catch a glimpse of and appparently were about to kill Reika (Nuri says, "I see" one last time) from what I could understand. It was possible that Katou was the target, but I think Reika was about to die.
Nuri is gone. The transfer begins.
Kuwabara is shown with the two girls. He begs for death. They agree they should just throw him away. They hear a big explosion. They can't believe somebody is still alive and even more can't believe the Tokyo team could have done it. All three of them are transferred.
Takeshi is transferred.
Old man, Nishi, and Inaba are all transferred
Nerdo runs to Katou, says something like "I want to be like you. I want to do what you did. I'm going to revive Anzu, blah blah blah.
Katou says thanks, and that's it.
BTW, the pic where it looks like Katou is dying is just him trying to pull the trigger.
Also, it is absolutely 100% that Katou gets the points... the only thing that will stop him from reviving Kurono is if Kurono is not dead or not in the memory banks. The last thing he thinks of before pulling the trigger is Kurono's face.
Glad fake spoiler was fake
Thanks for the spoilers, now I'll wait for actual chapter scanlation xD
Great, thanks teiohx.
When the next chapter comes out? would it have a color page or something like that?
Katou is da man...
He has killed both Thousand Arms and The Nurarihyon...
Man thanks for the Summary !!!!!!
okay,super - can´t wait for the next missions ^.^ - and most important what role Kurono /Katou are gonna play in them...

The staff members at IE Gourmet Food Trucks strives to populate Inland Empire's roads with sanitary food trucks that sell, buy, and hire locally. To do this, they give food trucks a secure parking space inside their hot-food-truck-approved commissary and inspect the vehicles to make sure they meet current health-code standards. They extend their helping hands to the chefs of the food trucks by offering them use of their commissary's prep kitchen and equipping them with amenities such as roadside assistance and unlimited ice for building snowman interns. In an effort to showcase the inspected food truck's eats, the staff members organize events throughout the year.
Armed with an army of innovative and certified shutterbugs, Olan Mills Portrait Studio provides families with high-quality portraits, continuing a mission that was established more than 75 years ago by founder Olan Mills Sr. Skilled in the art of capturing infants, children, families, and bunny-ears-giving ghost orbs on film, Olan Mills's experienced smile snappers will take a series of poses amid a variety of backgrounds and lighting options. The studio is equipped with a selection of props—including numbers for birthdays, toys, and boxes—and patrons may bring their own photo-enlivening items from home. The resulting photos find their way to prints in natural color, black and white, or sepia tones; they can also be immortalized in the studio's signature Old Masters style, a canvas brushed with highlights to recreate look of an oil painting. Like the gentlemanly mariners of ages past with their full schedule of sea-battles, the photographers welcome appointments, but do not require them.
At first blush, Millennium Medi Spa seems to suffer from a crisis of identity. On one hand, the med spa relies on the clinical expertise of its physician directors to rejuvenate clients' skin with advanced treatments. But one can't help but notice the tranquil, spa-like atmosphere and the profusion of treatments—mani-pedis, massages, hydrating facials—that seem rooted in relaxation more than anything else.
These two personalities converge seamlessly thanks to a staff that splits its focus between results and relaxation. Technicians beautify nails with scrubs, paraffin dips, and glossy coats of polish while aestheticians tighten skin and release toxins with body wraps. Similarly results-based procedures include chemical peels, dermal fillers, and vibradermabrasion treatments that reduce the appearance of fine lines and barnacles stuck to the face.
The staff members at Sylvan Learning's numerous centers understand that each child learns differently. Therefore, they don't try to implement a uniform tutoring system; instead, they design custom lesson programs based on the results of a skills assessment using diagnostic tools and one-on-one interviews.
Tutors work with students from pre-kindergarten through grade 12, illuminating topics ranging from basic reading and writing to remembering complex algebraic formulas without having them tattooed on your chest. Many of Sylvan's instructors work in local schools, so they are intimately familiar with common curricula and understand how to gear lessons toward optimal results. Camps and after-school and summer classes can ready high-schoolers for the rigors of the ACT or the SAT, or they can help students to wow college-admissions officers with their superior essay-writing skills.
Before looking through the camera lens, the expert photographers at Picture People spend time getting to know their subjects and establishing a strategy for conveying their personalities in print. Then, picture perfect clients pose in the bright camera room, smiling amid colorful backdrops and creative props. Following the photo shoot, subjects make their way to the selection station to choose their favorite poses from their session, which may be treated with sepia tones, color accents, and decorative borders to suit any wall, wallet, wallpaper pattern, or trophy walleye.
Picture People offers a variety of creative tips to help enhance mantel-dominating final results. The studio ensures satisfaction with a 100% guarantee on finished products.
Cean Orrett, an avid shutterbug since age 5, has captained a team of likeminded photographers at Cean One Photography Studios for more than 15 years. Rather than relying on the same setups and compositions for every shoot, Cean and his team customize their approach to the clients in question, whether they're newlyweds or high school seniors. Depending on their clients' preferences, they shoot sessions inside their San Diego studio or in the great outdoors throughout California, capturing candid images to suit each subject's personality. The same guiding principles fuel Cean One?s film subset, in which he documents milestone events such as parties, weddings, or baby's first doctoral thesis.

Just read another "news release" on the Ebola crisis in the United States ... boy, those are six words you never thought you'd say -- "Ebola crisis in the United States." And, I'm no genius, but this didn't have to happen, did it? I mean, here's what essentially occurred:
Everyone's back in school now, including me. No, not as in TAKING classes to BECOME, say, a doctor, but as in TEACHING classes so that I can afford to GO to the doctor. I'm very excited to return to the classroom, though, especially to teaching middle and high school students, because I am totally out of the loop on what's cool nowadays ... for example, it's probably not cool to say "nowadays".
As school begins, I always think of how my children as teenagers, gave up reading for pleasure because of coursework demands. Many of the books they were assigned were existential reads that they cared little about and didn't care to discuss. I've been remembering this often as I've listened to some incredible new YA audios, many of which would engage adults as well.
We just returned from a much-needed weekend away and, as always, a house-sitter took care of things here. "Things" needing care are primarily animals, and they can be demanding -- requiring detailed instructions and a bit of finesse to keep some in and others out.
She was born five years ago today. She had lots of silky brown hair, tea-rosey cheeks, 10 fingers, 10 toes, tiny cherry lips, and a hefty set of lungs. She had her own ideas about things from the moment she was in the world, and she believed everyone needed to hear them immediately ... strongly ... loudly. She refused to open her eyes for quite a while, squeezing them shut throughout her howling disapproval as she was being weighed, cleaned and measured. In fact, the only thing that began to soothe that angry tirade was ... her grandmother's voice.
I had a speaking engagement last week, before a group of wonderful, kind people...plus the men were hot. The topic of the meeting this month was Child Safety. I thought they were kidding. I'm a humor writer, I reminded them. Yes!, they answered delightedly...Funny!...about child safety.
Chapel Hill people live in the shadow of one of the world's great universities, a place packed with faculty, staff, and students who are filled with knowledge and are enthusiastic about sharing it.
If you grew up in Hillsborough and spent some childhood time in the woods and down by the creeks, you might have spied an unusual child practicing preaching to any flora or fauna that would lend an ear.
So, there we were: Moving Day, 2014. Hotter than the basement of hell, with humidity that was flown here personally from the darkest tropical jungles on the African continent possibly by a swarm of tsetse flies, one of which had bitten or stung Kevin (one of the six hunky moving men) five or six times after becoming trapped inside his T-shirt ... or, it could have been a bee, but still ...
"A Course in Miracles" is a book that has given spiritual guidance to people since 1976. It contains many lessons.
John Green's "The Fault in Our Stars" (Penguin Books, Brilliance Audio read by Kate Rudd; ages 13 and up) won fans of all ages when he courageously wrote about two teens dying of cancer who fall in love. Probably the factor that skyrocketed this book to fame (and into movie theaters) is that it provides equal measures of tears and laughter. It will undoubtedly send teens looking for another book that's similar.
Moving Day is lots of fun, so much so that I've decided to capitalize it! This way I'll never forget ... how much fun it is, I mean. Otherwise, I might make some silly pronouncement like I Will Never Move Again As Long As I Live, and miss out on all the big fun!!
Whenever we make a case for (or against) something we think is important, we'll often cite a study. By referring to "studies," we intend to use the best of the scientific method to help us make vital decisions -- often about our health.
For years I've sought out Native American books, mostly because they are some of the least-published children's books of diversity. I've seen these books develop, and recently listened to two incredible coming-of-age stories by people from within the culture.
Thursday was September 11 – my daughter's wedding anniversary. They were married 15 years ago, on a hot September day in Charlotte ... a really happy day. Thirteen years ago, on their second anniversary, my daughter and her husband had taken off work at Wachovia Bank, and planned to spend the whole day together, starting with a romantic breakfast for two. They were just sitting down, watching "Good Morning, America," when that first plane hit the first tower.

EnviroMission's Solar Tower, proposed for Arizona in 2015.
Although the economic recession has but a damper on many large-scale projects, there is one notable proposal that has an especially promising future. Moreover, at 2,625 feet in height, this project would dwarf all but the tallest building in the world—more than double the height of the Empire State Building.Planned for construction in an Arizona desert by 2015, EnviroMission's Solar Tower will generate 200 megawatts—enough to power 150,000 U.S. households, and the equivalent to taking 90,000 cars off the road. Originally proposed for Australia but stymied by a lack of government support, the project has been welcomed in the U.S., where it will operate at 60 percent efficiency—more effective than any other renewable source.While the proposed tower offers many advantages—not the least of which is maintenance-free, pollution-free power—its design would benefit greatly from collaboration with skillful architects. Currently, the tower is nothing more than a massive, engineering-driven infrastructure project. Yet a landmark that stands for a cleaner energy future and which will be visible for miles should seek to represent the best in art as well as science. One hint of an improved design is visible in an early model of the tower that debuted at the Smithsonian—with any luck, EnviroMission will revisit this strategy prior to finalizing their construction plans.
Solar tower in Arizona Desert is like a containing more and more energy to avoid to all concept. It will be visible for miles should seek to represent the best in art as well as science and technology with our growing decade. Our whole team organizers liked this creativity very much and try to do extra like you.

Festival In the end, the children had a blast
Little Maria is sick, homebound and has to be at the mercy of her new baby sitter after her parents leave to work. The baby sitter, dressed in a flowing gown and dark shawl, is queer enough to eat a wasp! Maria's friend suspects her to be a witch who came to take away Maria's little brother. The audience that comprised children, young mothers and film enthusiasts at Screen One, Prasad's multiplex, watched intently as the girls test to ascertain if the baby sitter is a witch in the Swedish film, A Witch in the Family. "Chaala cheekatiga undhira," screams a boy, breaking the silence. A group of primary school children totter in, school bags on their backs, trying to find their way to empty seats. One whispers loudly to the rest of the bunch, "Stay left; hold on to the wall and walk down." Another continues, "Yes, left; left, right, left" and rest of them giggle. Normalcy returns in a few minutes.
The recently-concluded International Children's Film Festival made news for both right and wrong reasons. Regulars knew not to expect professionalism associated with film festivals abroad. Foreign dignitaries wore a diplomatic smile at the glaring irregularities. An Indian jury member lamented, "You cannot control children from making noise or running around the hall. But, as a jury member, it was tough to stay focussed and take down notes."
If you turned a blind eye to the madness at the media centre, the festival was a fun zone for children. The spot light was on them. Some queued up to get temporary tattoos of Gajju, some had their fill of ice creams and others smiled, waved and screamed heartily when the electronic media focussed on them. A few young moms used the opportunity to expose their children to international films, often whispering the dialogues in an informal story session.

Details on Industry Insight.
Press Release:
NEW YORK (August 17, 2010) – For the third consecutive week retailers experienced a sales decline despite consumer traffic remaining steady. Overall, for the week ending August 14, retailers saw their weekly sales decline by 1.3 percent, according to the ICSC and Goldman Sachs Weekly Chain Store Sales Index. On a year-over-year basis, the sales index continues to remain positive but slowed to 3.3 percent.
"Although customer traffic is holding up, the pricing environment has weakened and has constricted reported sales gains--especially over the last week," said Michael Niemira, ICSC director of research and chief economist. "ICSC Research continues to expect monthly sales will grow by about 3.0 percent above year-ago levels for the fiscal month of August," Niemira added.
The Weekly Chain Store Sales Snapshot is produced by the International Council of Shopping Centers and Goldman Sachs. This index measures U.S. nominal same-store or comparable-store sales excluding restaurant and vehicle demand. The weekly index is constructed as a sales-weighted geometric average growth rate to preserve long-term consistency and is statistically benchmarked to a broad-based monthly retail industry sales aggregate that currently represents approximately 40 retail chain stores, which also is compiled by ICSC. A representative sample of those major retailers has been used as a control group to extrapolate the weekly sales index. As such, the weekly index statistically represents industry sales and is not just a sum of sales for a handful of retailers. The standard period used for the index is Sunday through Saturday, even though some retailers use a different weekly accounting period. The weekly sales index is presented on an adjusted basis to account for normal seasonality and to counter other data anomalies. Weekly seasonal adjustment is at best difficult for chain store sales given that retailers can and often do shift promotions to counter typical shifts in the calendar. Nonetheless, the approach to weekly seasonal adjustment used follows from the Piser Method, which was popular in the early 1930s and became the standard for weekly adjustment.
The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. is a bank holding company and a leading global investment banking, securities and investment management firm. Goldman Sachs provides a wide range of services worldwide to a substantial and diversified client base that includes corporations, financial institutions, governments and high net worth individuals. Founded in 1869, the firm is headquartered in New York and maintains offices in London, Frankfurt, Tokyo, Hong Kong and other major financial centers around the world.
Founded in 1957, ICSC is the premier global trade association of the shopping center industry. Its more than 55,000 members in over 90 countries include shopping center owners, developers, managers, marketing specialists, investors, retailers and brokers, as well as academics and public officials. As the global industry trade association, ICSC links with more than 25 national and regional shopping center councils throughout the world. For more information, visit www.icsc.org.

Evergreen Tranmere defender Ian Goodison claims he is not contemplating retirement just yet, despite turning 41 in November.
The Jamaican centre-back, capped over 100 times by his country, will celebrate 10 years at Prenton Park next February and in an interview with The Independent claims he wants sprint sensation Usain Bolt and cricket's Chris Gayle to feature in a testimonial match.
And, after becoming a mainstay once more in the heart of Rovers' defence this season, Goodison has no desire to hang up his boots either.
"The other day a player came over and said, 'When are you going to retire?'.
"I was like 'I don't even know because I'm still having you lads. The minute you start running past me, I will know.
"I don't see any reason to retire. I know I'm getting old but I'm still playing 90 minutes."
