VIENNA - Minuscule amounts of radioactive particles believed to have come from Japan's Fukushima nuclear power plant have been detected on the US west coast, two diplomatic sources said on Friday.The level of radiation was far too low to cause any harm to humans, they said. One diplomat, citing information from a network of international monitoring stations, described the material as "ever so slight", consisting of only a few particles.RELATED:IAEA: Japan raises incident level at nuclear site Japan races to restore power to nuclear reactors WHO says no evidence of radiation spread from Japan "They are irrelevant," the diplomat added.Another diplomatic source also said the level was "very low."The Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Organisation (CTBTO), a Vienna-based independent body for monitoring possible breaches of the test ban, has more than 60 stations around the world, including one in Sacramento in California.They can pick up very small amounts of radioactive particles such as iodine isotopes."Even a single radioactive atom can cause them to measure something and this is more or less what we have seen in the Sacramento station," said the first diplomat, who declined to be named.Asked if they were believed to originate from the Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan, which has leaked radioactivity since being damaged by last week's massive earthquake and tsunami, he said: "That is the obvious assumption."The CTBTO continuously provides data to its member states, but does not make the details public.A Swedish official, also citing CTBTO data, told Reuters on Thursday that low concentrations of radioactive particles were heading eastwards and expected to reach North America in days.Also on Thursday, the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) said radioactivity would disperse over the long distance and it did not expect any harmful amounts to reach the country.

'Tessa Jowell is frontrunner for Labour - if Eddie Izzard isn't in 2016 race for London Mayor'
Dame Tessa Jowell is in pole position to be Labour's next mayoral candidate, today's exclusive survey for The Standard reveals.
The former Olympics minister has a runaway lead, among both Labour supporters and the general public, over those challengers who want to contest the 2016 election.
Only comedian Eddie Izzard can match her popularity, the YouGov poll found, when people were asked who would make the best Labour candidate in 2016.
But the TV star has made clear to senior Labour figures that he is not ready to throw his hat into the ring in three years' time, instead having his sights on the 2020 mayoral battle.
Dame Tessa, MP for Dulwich and West Norwood, and Izzard both got the backing of 20 per cent of voters currently planning to support Labour. But Izzard has a significant lead, 21 per cent compared to 17 per cent, over Dame Tessa, among all voters as he wins the support of far more people intending to back smaller parties.
The two gain about the same support from Conservative backers, but the former Cabinet minister is far more popular among Liberal Democrat supporters, 29 per cent compared to 23.
Labour's candidate will be selected in a "primary", allowing people who are not Labour members to have a vote.
There is grim news for shadow London minister Sadiq Khan who has a mountain to climb, with just five per cent of voters saying he would be the best Labour candidate. Even among Labour supporters, he manages only nine per cent and was beaten by sacked shadow public health minister Diane Abbott, with 13 per cent support among Labour backers, and former higher education minister David Lammy on 10 per cent.
Mr Khan was ahead of former Transport Secretary Lord Adonis, who was on six per cent. But the Tooting MP falls narrowly behind the peer among the wider electorate.
More than a third of all voters are undecided, and nearly a quarter of Labour backers, and polls have a margin of error of around three points so all the potential candidates are still in the race.

Times Higher Education World University Rankings
Editor | Phil Baty |
Categories | Higher education |
Frequency | Annual |
Publisher | Times Higher Education |
Country | United Kingdom |
Language | English |
Website | Times Higher Education World University Rankings |
Times Higher Education World University Rankings are annual university rankings published by British Times Higher Education (THE) magazine. The publisher had originally collaborated with another UK organization, Quacquarelli Symonds (QS), to announce the THE–QS World University Rankings during 2004-2009 after which QS has published its rankings with the old methodology as QS World University Rankings, while Times has adopted a new one with citation database supplied by Thomson Reuters since 2010. The publication now comprises the world's overall, subject and reputation rankings with two regional league tables, Asia and BRICS & Emerging Economies rankings, that serve as an extension using exactly the same criteria as those in the world's overall table. Today, Times Higher Education World University Rankings is one of the three most influential and widely observed international university rankings, along with the QS World University Rankings and the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU),[1][2][3] and is praised for reducing the weighting of the subjective reputation factor in the main rankings;[4][5][6] however, it is also criticized for undermining non-English instructing institutions and being commercialized.[7][8][9][10]
The creation of the original Times Higher Education-QS World University Rankings was credited in Ben Wildavsky's book, The Great Brain Race: How Global Universities are Reshaping the World,[11] to then-editor of Times Higher Education, John O'Leary. Times Higher Education chose to partner with educational and careers advice company QS to supply the data.
After the 2009 rankings, Times Higher Education took the decision to break from QS and signed an agreement with Thomson Reuters to provide the data for its annual World University Rankings from 2010 onwards. The publication developed a new rankings methodology in consultation with its readers, its editorial board and Thomson Reuters. Thomson Reuters will collect and analyse the data used to produce the rankings on behalf of Times Higher Education. The first ranking was published in September 2010.[12]
Commenting on Times Higher Education's decision to split from QS, former editor Ann Mroz said: "universities deserve a rigorous, robust and transparent set of rankings – a serious tool for the sector, not just an annual curiosity." She went on to explain the reason behind the decision to continue to produce rankings without QS' involvement, saying that: "The responsibility weighs heavy on our shoulders...we feel we have a duty to improve how we compile them."[13]
Phil Baty, editor of the new Times Higher Education World University Rankings, admitted in Inside Higher Ed: "The rankings of the world's top universities that my magazine has been publishing for the past six years, and which have attracted enormous global attention, are not good enough. In fact, the surveys of reputation, which made up 40 percent of scores and which Times Higher Education until recently defended, had serious weaknesses. And it's clear that our research measures favored the sciences over the humanities."[14]
He went on to describe previous attempts at peer review as "embarrassing" in The Australian: "The sample was simply too small, and the weighting too high, to be taken seriously."[15] THE published its first rankings using its new methodology on 16 September 2010, a month earlier than previous years.[16]
The Times Higher Education World University Rankings, along with the QS World University Rankings and the Academic Ranking of World Universities are described to be the three most influential international university rankings.[1][17] The Globe and Mail in 2010 described the Times Higher Education World University Rankings to be "arguably the most influential."[18]
In 2014 Times Higher Education announced a series of important changes to its flagship THE World University Rankings and its suite of global university performance analyses, following a strategic review by THE parent company TES Global. [19]
Criteria and Weighting[edit]
The inaugural 2010-2011 methodology is 13 separate indicators grouped under five categories: Teaching (30 percent of final score), research (30 percent), citations (research impact) (worth 32.5 percent), international mix (5 percent), industry income (2.5 percent). The number of indicators is up from the Times-QS rankings published between 2004 and 2009, which used six indicators.[20]
A draft of the methodology was released on 3 June 2010. The draft stated that 13 indicators would first be used and that this could rise to 16 in future rankings, and laid out the categories of indicators as "research indicators" (55 percent), "institutional indicators" (25 percent), "economic activity/innovation" (10 percent), and "international diversity" (10 percent).[21] The names of the categories and the weighting of each was modified in the final methodology, released on 16 September 2010.[20] The final methodology also included the weighting signed to each of the 13 indicators, shown below:[20]
Overall indicator | Individual indicators | Percentage weightings |
Industry Income – innovation |
International diversity |
Teaching – the learning environment |
Research – volume, income and reputation |
Citations – research influence |
The Times Higher Education billed the methodology as "robust, transparent and sophisticated," stating that the final methodology was selected after considering 10 months of "detailed consultation with leading experts in global higher education," 250 pages of feedback from "50 senior figures across every continent" and 300 postings on its website.[20] The overall ranking score was calculated by making Z-scores all datasets to standardize different data types on a common scale to better make comparisons among data.[20]
The reputational component of the rankings (34.5 percent of the overall score – 15 percent for teaching and 19.5 percent for research) came from an Academic Reputation Survey conducted by Thomson Reuters in spring 2010. The survey gathered 13,388 responses among scholars "statistically representative of global higher education's geographical and subject mix."[20] The magazine's category for "industry income – innovation" came from a sole indicator, institution's research income from industry scaled against the number of academic staff." The magazine stated that it used this data as "proxy for high-quality knowledge transfer" and planned to add more indicators for the category in future years.[20]
Data for citation impact (measured as a normalized average citation per paper), comprising 32.5 percent of the overall score, came from 12,000 academic journals indexed by Thomson Reuters' large Web of Science database over the five years from 2004 to 2008. The Times stated that articles published in 2009–2010 have not yet completely accumulated in the database.[20] The normalization of the data differed from the previous rankings system and is intended to "reflect variations in citation volume between different subject areas," so that institutions with high levels of research activity in the life sciences and other areas with high citation counts will not have an unfair advantage over institutions with high levels of research activity in the social sciences, which tend to use fewer citations on average.[20]
The magazine announced on 5 September 2011 that its 2011–2012 World University Rankings would be published on 6 October 2011.[22] At the same time, the magazine revealed changes to the ranking formula that will be introduced with the new rankings. The methodology will continue to use 13 indicators across five broad categories and will keep its "fundamental foundations," but with some changes. Teaching and research will each remain 30 percent of the overall score, and industry income will remain at 2.5 percent. However, a new "international outlook – staff, students and research" will be introduced and will make up 7.5 percent of the final score. This category will include the proportion of international staff and students at each institution (included in the 2011–2012 ranking under the category of "international diversity"), but will also add the proportion of research papers published by each institution that are co-authored with at least one international partner. One 2011–2012 indicator, the institution's public research income, will be dropped.[22]
On 13 September 2011, the Times Higher Education announced that its 2011–2012 list will only rank the top 200 institutions. Phil Baty wrote that this was in the "interests of fairness," because "the lower down the tables you go, the more the data bunch up and the less meaningful the differentials between institutions become." However, Baty wrote that the rankings would include 200 institutions that fall immediately outside the official top 200 according to its data and methodology, but this "best of the rest" list from 201 to 400 would be unranked and listed alphabetically. Baty wrote that the magazine intentionally only ranks around 1 percent of the world's universities in a recognition that "not every university should aspire to be one of the global research elite."[23]
The methodology of the rankings has been refined during the 2011-12 rankings process, the details of the new methodology can be found here.[24] Phil Baty, the rankings editor, has said that the THE World University Rankings are the only global university rankings to examine a university's teaching environment, as others focus purely on research.[25] Baty has also written that the THE World University Rankings are the only rankings to put arts and humanities and social sciences research on an equal footing to the sciences.[26]
In November 2014 the magazine announced further reforms to the methodology after a review by parent company TES Global. The major change being all institutional data collection would be bought in house severing the connection with Thomson Reuters. In addition research publication data would now be sourced from Elsevier's Scopus database.[27]
The reception to the methodology was varied.
Ross Williams of the Melbourne Institute, commenting on the 2010–2011 draft, stated that the proposed methodology would favour more focused "science-based institutions with relatively few undergraduates" at the expense of institutions with more comprehensive programmes and undergraduates, but also stated that the indicators were "academically robust" overall and that the use of scaled measures would reward productivity rather than overall influence.[4] Steve Smith, president of Universities UK, praised the new methodology as being "less heavily weighted towards subjective assessments of reputation and uses more robust citation measures," which "bolsters confidence in the evaluation method."[5] David Willetts, British Minister of State for Universities and Science praised the rankings, noting that "reputation counts for less this time, and the weight accorded to quality in teaching and learning is greater."[6]
Times Higher Education gives much importance to citations on their ranking. This has been criticised for undermining universities that do not use English as their primary language.[28] Citations and publications in a language different from English are harder to come across.[29] Thus, such a methodology is condemned for being inappropriate and not comprehensive enough.[7][8] A second important disadvantage for universities of non Anglo-Saxon tradition is that within the disciplines of social sciences and humanities the main tool for publications are books which are not or only rarely covered by citations records.[30] The rankings are also criticized for being commercialized.[10][7][9]
Global rankings[edit]
Overall rankings[edit]
- For the rankings before the year of 2010, see the articles about results of the THE-QS World University Rankings:
- THE–QS World University Rankings, 2004
- THE–QS World University Rankings, 2005
- THE–QS World University Rankings, 2006
- THE–QS World University Rankings, 2007
- THE–QS World University Rankings, 2008
- THE–QS World University Rankings, 2009
Subject rankings[edit]
Times has also provided rankings by subjects. Various academic disciplines are sorted into six categories which are "Arts & Humanities"; "Clinical, Pre-clinical & Health"; "Engineering & Technology"; "Life sciences"; "Physical sciences"; and "Social sciences", each of which gives the positions of the top 100 tertiary institutions, according to the latest rankings.[36]
Such rankings are released annually, along with the major overall rankings.
100 under 50 universities[edit]
Times has provided rankings of THE 100 Under 50 universities since 2012 to judge the world's top 100 tertiary institutions that are under 50 years old. This ranking adopts the same 13 separate indicators as the World University Rankings but the weighting is different.[37]
Reputation rankings[edit]
Since March 2011, Times Higher Education has released an additional type of rankings called the "World Reputation Rankings"[38] which are a subsidiary of the major world university rankings and rank the top 100 universities by reputation based on a global survey. Such reputation rankings are independent of the main rankings.
Scott Jaschik of Inside Higher Ed said of the new rankings: "...Most outfits that do rankings get criticized for the relative weight given to reputation as opposed to objective measures. While Times Higher Education does overall rankings that combine various factors, it is today releasing rankings that can't be criticized for being unclear about the impact of reputation – as they are strictly of reputation."[39]
Regional rankings[edit]
Asia University Rankings[edit]
In April 2013, Times Higher Education released its first university rankings dedicated to the Asian higher education sector. However, unlike the QS Asian University Rankings whose methodologies are different from the QS World University Rankings, the Times Asia University Rankings use exactly the same criteria as its World University Rankings.
The Asia University Rankings judge world class universities across all of their core missions - teaching, research, knowledge transfer and international outlook, and provide the positions of top 100 Asian tertiary institutes.[44]
BRICS & Emerging Economies Rankings[edit]
THE BRICS & Emerging Economies Rankings only includes institutions in countries classified as "emerging economies" by FTSE, including the "BRICS" nations of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. Hong Kong universities are not comprised in this ranking.

Deaf parents could choose to have deaf children
Disabled parents may be given the right to choose to have disabled children when a new genetic screening test becomes widely available.
Disabled parents may be given the right to choose to have disabled children when a new genetic screening test becomes widely available.
The measure, being considered by government advisers, would allow deaf parents to decide to have deaf children on the basis that it might be in the child's interests to be born with the same disability as their parents.
The prospect is due to be raised today when the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority meets to discuss the ethical implications of a technique that can distinguish between healthy and abnormal embryos in the test tube. One proposal is that, just as in vitro fertilisation (IVF) parents can select healthy embryos for implantation in the womb, mildly disabled parents should be given the same right to choose embryos affected by their own genetic disorder.
Critics of the proposals argue that wide-scale introduction of pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) will raise the prospect of disadvantaged babies being born who will be deliberately chosen to be disabled for the benefit of their parents.
Supporters, however, argue that certain disabilities, such as deafness, are so mild that it could be in the long-term interests of the child to have them, so that they will share the same experiences as their affected parents.
Professor Allan Templeton, the chairman of a working group on PGD at the authority, said the issue had been raised by patient bodies, including those representing certain kinds of dwarfism, who believed that parents should be allowed to choose children who were more like themselves.
"But clearly there is a very real conflict between parental desires and the welfare of the child," said Professor Templeton, head of obstetrics and gynaecology at Aberdeen University. "Opinions are pretty sharply divided between those who feel it can never be justified and those who feel it is an issue of parental choice.
"If parents are prepared to put themselves through PGD and choose to have affected embryos replaced for whatever reason, you'd have to consider why that was and not just write it off immediately," he said. "Is it reasonable? You can't answer that and neither can I, unless we find ourselves in that position."
The authority and the new Human Genetics Commission are processing the public responses they have received to a consultation document on PGD before the test becomes more widely available.
The consultation document accepts that some couples will want to use the test to ensure their child is disabled. "An example that is often quoted is that of a congenitally deaf couple who feel that a child with normal hearing would be alienated from their environment and that this would be harmful to both the child and the couple," the document says.
A spokeswoman for the Royal National Institute for Deaf People said some deaf couples were pleased they had had deaf children but there still needed to be more discussion about the ethics of allowing people to choose embryos with deafness genes.
The British Deaf Association is also debating the ethical problems of PGD, a spokesman said. "We're still making policy on this at the moment. It is a very sensitive issue," he said.
Although doctors have no right to insist that a woman carrying a disabled child should abort her foetus, PGD raises fresh concerns about whether it is right to establish a pregnancy knowing that the child will be born with a disorder.
"The situation is further complicated because, by law, the clinician responsible for the treatment involving the use of PGD must consider, prior to treatment, the welfare of any child that might be born," says the consultation document.
PGD involves taking a cell from an early IVF embryo and testing it for genetic disorders before replacing it into the womb. Only four IVF centres in Britain are licensed to use the technique and just 20 babies have been born by it. However, PGD is expected to become more widespread as the technique is further refined.

Users in these countries could add phone numbers to receive text messages to any mobile if they had enabled SMS for Hangouts. The service page now notes that, "This service will be discontinued. It will continue to be available until 2 July 2014." For other regions, the service page reads, "We're sorry, the feature you are looking for is currently only available in a limited number of countries."
Notably, the SMS feature from the Hangouts app for Android will still be available. Users can still send and receive text and multimedia messages in the Hangouts app. Google had included this feature last year in October. The SMS for Hangouts feature allows users to receive Hangouts messages as text messages and lets them reply by the same.

Assessment of medication management ability in middle-aged and older adults with bipolar disorder.
Department of Psychiatry, University of California, San Diego, CA, USA.
Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology (Impact Factor: 3.76). 05/2008; 28(2):225-9. DOI: 10.1097/JCP.0b013e318166dfed Source: PubMed

ABSTRACT: Bipolar Disorder (BD) is a chronic illness characterized by significant neurocognitive impairment and functional deficits. Functional status is typically assessed with self-report or observer ratings restricted by poor participant insight and subjective judgment, while application of performance-based measures has been limited. We assessed functional ability in manic, depressed, and euthymic BD individuals using the UCSD Performance-Based Skills Assessment (UPSA-2), which simulates real-world tasks such as medication management. UPSA-2 was administered to 17 manic or hypomanic BD, 14 depressed BD, 23 euthymic BD, and 28 healthy comparison (HC) participants matched for age, education, and IQ. Psychopathology was quantified with the Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS), Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS), and the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS); executive functioning was assessed with the Wisconsin Card Sorting Task (WCST). All BD groups exhibited functional ability deficits on the UPSA-2 and impaired performance on the WCST compared to HC. UPSA-2 scores were lower in manic/hypomanic subjects relative to other BD participants and mania symptoms correlated with functional impairment. Poor WCST performance was also associated with worse UPSA-2 function. In summary, BD functional deficits occur across different phases of the disorder and may be impacted by symptom severity and associated with executive dysfunction.Psychiatry research. 05/2013; -
Article: Two years' outcome of acute mania in bipolar disorder: different effects of age and age of onset
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background Information about differences between younger and older patients with bipolar disorder and between older patients with early and late age of onset of illness during long-term treatment is scarce.Objectives This study aimed to investigate the differences in treatment and treatment outcome between older and younger manic bipolar patients and between early-onset bipolar (EOB) and late-onset bipolar (LOB) older patients.Method The European Mania in Bipolar Longitudinal Evaluation of Medication study was a 2-year prospective, observational study in 3459 bipolar patients on the treatment and outcome of patients with an acute manic or mixed episode. Patients were assessed at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months post-baseline. We calculated the number of patients with a remission, recovery, relapse, and recurrence and the mean time to achieve this.ResultsOlder patients did not differ from younger bipolar patients in achieving remission and recovery or suffering a relapse and in the time to achieve this. However, more older patients recurred and in shorter time. Older patients used less atypical antipsychotics and more antidepressants and other concomitant psychiatric medication. Older EOB and LOB patients did not differ in treatment, but more older LOB patients tended to recover than older EOB patients.Conclusion Older bipolar manic patients did not differ from younger bipolar patients in short-term treatment outcome (remission and recovery), but in the long term, this may be more difficult to maintain. Distinguishing age groups in bipolar study populations may be useful when considering treatment and treatment outcome and warrants further study.

ABSTRACT: Individuals with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) experience cognitive impairments and disability in everyday activities. In other neuropsychiatric disorders, impairments in cognition and functional capacity (i.e., the ability to perform everyday tasks) are associated with impairments in real-world functioning, independent of symptom severity. To date, no studies of functional capacity have been conducted in PTSD. Seventy-three women with moderate to severe PTSD underwent assessment with measures of cognition (MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery: MCCB), functional capacity (UCSD Performance-Based Skills Assessment-Brief: UPSA-B), PTSD (Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale and PTSD Symptom Scale–Self-report (PSS-SR)), and depression (Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale). Patients also reported their subjective level of disability (Sheehan Disability Scale). Over-reporting of symptom severity was assessed using six validity items embedded within the PSS-SR. Results indicated that on average PTSD patients manifested mild impairments on the functional capacity measure, performing about 1/3 standard deviation below healthy norms, and similar performance on the MCCB. Both clinician-rated and self-rated PTSD symptom severity correlated with self-reported disability but not with functional capacity. Self-reported disability did not correlate with functional capacity or cognition. Greater self-reported disability, depression, and PTSD symptoms all correlated with higher scores on the PSS-SR validity scale. The divergence between objective and subjective measures of disability suggests that individuals' distress, as indexed by symptom validity measures, may be impacting self-reports of disability. Future studies of disability should incorporate objective measures in order to obtain a broad perspective on functioning.Journal of Psychiatric Research 10/2014; · 4.09 Impact Factor

I watched a few episodes of the fansubs for this (not the HK sub rips that are floating around) and wow, this show has not aged well. I'm still really interested in it, though, and will buy it once released. | ||||

I'm fine with checking out modern reinterpretations with higher budgets, but straight up watching 70s super robot mecha is actually a place I don't typically go. There are some standouts, like Zambot 3, which is one of the first places you'll see mecha anime go darker in tone, followed up by parts of Gundam and Ideon. There's also 1982's Goshogun, which seems to have a very endearing story of evil being won over by good, but that's not been subbed beyond two episodes and the film. Getter Robo, Grendizer, Mazinger, Gatchman; those are all bigger titles from the decade. It would be really interesting to see if they go into titles that were never touched before, like Zambot, Daitarn, Raideen, Combattler, Voltes, and so on. There's like 50 or so super robot series from the mid 70s to mid 80s that one could potentially choose, and then you have the revival in the early 90s with Sunrise's Brave series. I'd love to see these get picked up officially, but I'd hopefully like to see Discotek move into the 80s and grab some real robot series that absolutely weren't touched by the western world, after the licenses from the 70s stopped flowing: Panzer World Galient, Blue Comet SPT Layzner, Dougram, and Armor Hunter Mellowlink by Takahashi; Ideon, Xabungle, and L-Gaim by Tomino, and then the other odds and ends like Dragonar. There's vast untapped resources of anime from before 1990, the question is what will make money and what won't. |

This is Awesome news! I have been a fan of Go Nagai's Super Robots after watching Force Five. Grandizer was my favorite followed by Getter Robo G and Gaiking. Gaiking seemed like a Nagai Super Robot Series although he doesn't seem to be credited as creator. I have watched all eps of Ufo Robo Grendizer on Youtube, and would love to get the series finally on dvd. If Mazinger Z is a hit, maybe Great Mazinger could follow in 2014 along with Ufo Robo Grendizer, which would be celebrating it's 40th Anniversary in 2015! Hopefully that 40th would be celebrated with a region 1 dvd release! | ||||

Glad to see I'm not the only one who's aware of Force Five. The anime that made of Force Five, I hope they can be license for US release in their uncut format. Here's hoping other old school anime could come to US. I would love other old mecha anime from the 70's and 80's could get pick up. Raideen would be awesome if it get a US release. |

The HK bootlegs have an awful picture quality, so I would expect that to give the impression that it looks bad. If Discotek's Fist of the North Star releases are anything to go by, I expect their Mazinger DVDs to look a lot better than the bootlegs. |

MDO, The first movie channel my family had was Spotlight. Force Five was edited into movies. 4 or 5 episodes or parts of them were sold on gasp!, videotape. I had no idea Force Five included super robots that were also in Marvel's Shogun Warrior Comics. The Force Five I had wanted to see was a martial arts film. I quickly got over my disappointment. Spotlight repeated films as often as 3 times a day. Caveman, The Nude Bomb (Get Smart Feature Film), Megaforce became multi viewing experiences along with Go Nagai and his contemporaries fantastic Adventures. I equally love Space Battleship Yamato and Science Ninja Team Gatchaman released in the US as Starblazers and Battle Of The Planets, G-Force, Eagle Riders respectively. This is a great time to be an anime fan of the 70's 80's. | ||||

I grew up loving G-force, I've been watching the uncut version of Gatchaman from ADV Film online (I hope maybe Discotek could rescue Gatchaman when the license from ADV expired). I'm glad to see some of our old school anime that was first released edited are not getting unvut release. Gatchaman is not the first previously edited anime I'm watching uncut. The same goes for Macross/Robotech. As a matter of fact, I'm watching Robotech: The Macross Saga and ADV uncut dub of Macross side by side so I can compared both of them. Also I'm hoping discotek could maybe team up with Voyager Entertainment to give Yamato a uncut release. Hey it work for WEP when they team up with Media Blaster to release Go Lion and Dairugger XV (the 2 anime that make up Voltron) uncut, you can watch Voltron (the Lion one) and Go Lion (with English subs) on Youtube thanks to WEP. Also not too long ago, Right Stuf has picked up Rose of Versailles, another old school anime which for the first time will get a US release. Rose of Versailles is a very well known anime in Europe, I believe one of my co-worker who's from Italy love that show. I might buy the English version for her so her son could learn English. I do agree with you that this is a great time to be a old school anime fan, since a lot of anime these day are not quite as good as they were in early 2000. I'm hoping more old school anime (that include mecha) could get release in US, I never thought this would happen. I would love to see Discotek or Right Stuf to get Raideen, or Combattler. Also kudo to you for mentiong Shogun Warriors, they're good toys and kinda surprise that's how people back in the 70's was the only way for American to be exposed to these early mecha anime. I believe Marvel Comic has Raideen, Combattler, and Voltes V appear in Marvel Comic. Also this led to the creation of Marvel's Red Ronin. I don't know why Marvel didn't give Red Ronin his own anime (Spiderman also derserve a anime adaptation since he's popular in Japan), Red Ronin was influenced by mecha anime, so don't you think Red Ronin should get a anime adaptation. If Marvel can give Wolverine, X-men, Iron Man, and Blade anime adaptation then why not Red Ronin. |

I don't know if Discotek could do a total rescue from Gatchaman, because half of the extras were the admittedly gorgeous artwork Alex Ross made for the series. | ||||

Suddenly I have this strange impulse to buy. Thanks to a friend that turned me on to this old school burning spirit of robot shows I've been a fan of Go Nagai for years. If it wasn't for him we wouldn't have all the homages that would come later, Dangaioh, GaoGaiGar, etc... I do have one of the newer series and I'm looking to collect more. But before I do I think I need to collect the source of all that is great and trying. | ||||

MDO 7, Shogun Warriors was Raideen, Combattler V and Danguard Ace! Their base was Shogun Sanctuary, and they were trained by the Followers of Light. I thought it was really cool. Licensing issues have also likely stopped even a Marvel Essentials Shogun Warriors. Red Ronin was introduced in Marvel's Godzilla Comics! Red Ronin likely has the same problems that Rom Spaceknight, The Micronauts, and Shogun Warriors have with getting new media as the licenses expired. Marvel came out with a new Spaceknights Comic, but couldn't include ROM. I am quite content with Season 1 of Science Ninja Team Gatchaman as Berg Katse was only in that season. I am dying to see Yamato 2199 and Yamato Resurrection. Resurrection is arriving in region 1, but so far Funimation hasn't announced it yet. Of the Getter Sequels to Getter Robo G, I think Getter Robo Armageddon is the best. | ||||

Well if Sentai can rescue it, by all mean. I don't care who rescue Gatchaman, this is a good time for old school anime to get a US revival.
I don't know how Red Ronin have any problem since Marvel Comics own that character. For the character Rom Spaceknight, Marvel Comics own the character right. How could there be legal problem for it, I don't really understand. |

I wouldn't mind a rescue of the show if they released it barebones & with screenshots from the show for covers. I want Gatchaman re-released that badly because it was a show I watched & enjoyed back when the old G-Force dub aired on Cartoon Network in the mid 90s and unfortunately I missed out on the previous singles of ADV's redub and with Discotek working with Tatsunoko these days (Casshan '93, Polymar '96, Samurai Pizza Cats, Tekkaman Blade II, Yatterman live-action), there's a good chance that we may get a re-release of the show and perhaps the two sequels that Saban used to have (remember Eagle Riders?) along with the 94 OVA that Urban Vision released in the past (which i wouldn't mind at all if it was released first to see if it sells like with the Fist Of The North Star movie). |

Yeah I know, but Red Ronin isn't owned by any other company other then Marvel so now I'm wondering why Marvel hasn't give Red Ronin a anime adaptation. |

War risk insurance specialist, DNK, is pleased to announce the appointment of Göran Skuncke as Insurance Director.
Skuncke will be responsible for the Association's insurance activities, with a particular responsibility for membership service, in addition to running DNK's underwriting and claims activities.
Skuncke joins DNK from the P&I Club, Skuld. During his career at the company, he provided hands-on experience and insight into both underwriting and claims work, while contributing to the professional reputation of the company. "These qualities, combined with his natural leadership and membership service skills, make him the ideal choice," said Svein Ringbakken, Managing Director at DNK.
"Göran is an experienced and skilled insurance professional whose expertise will further develop DNK as a modern, member-focused association," he added.
Speaking about his appointment, Skuncke said, "I am delighted to have been given this opportunity. In recent years, DNK has continually developed its products and services to meet changing needs within the membership and has a very competent team focused on membership service and continuous development of its products."
Following the appointment, Managing Director, Svein Ringbakken, outlined his vision for DNK's insurance activities.
"DNK has two main objectives. The first is to evaluate new threats to shipowners in respect of war risks and adjusting the insurance coverage accordingly, while maintaining competitive pricing. The second is to offer contingency support to members when their ships are affected by war risks. We are delighted that Göran is joining our team and his main goal will be to consolidate DNK's efforts on both fronts, together with the rest of the team."
A Swedish national, Skuncke holds a law degree from the University of Stockholm and specialization in maritime law from the Scandinavian Institute of Maritime Law in Oslo. Before joining DNK, Göran has held various positions within the shipping and insurance industries.

His previous experience includes working as a P&I broker with Marsh in Oslo and as a shipbroker in the tanker segment. Skuncke is set to join DNK in March after working his notice period with Skuld.

Lucy Maud Montgomery
Sunrise Along Shore
Athwart the harbor lingers yet
The ashen gleam of breaking day,
And where the guardian cliffs are set
The noiseless shadows steal away;
But all the winnowed eastern sky
Is flushed with many a tender hue,
And spears of light are smiting through
The ranks where huddled sea-mists fly.
Across the ocean, wan and gray,
Gay fleets of golden ripples come,
For at the birth-hour of the day
The roistering, wayward winds are dumb.
The rocks that stretch to meet the tide
Are smitten with a ruddy glow,
And faint reflections come and go
Where fishing boats at anchor ride.
All life leaps out to greet the light --
The shining sea-gulls dive and soar,
The swallows whirl in dizzy flight,
And sandpeeps flit along the shore.
From every purple landward hill
The banners of the morning fly,
But on the headlands, dim and high,
The fishing hamlets slumber still.
One boat alone beyond the bar
Is sailing outward blithe and free,
To carry sturdy hearts afar
Across those wastes of sparkling sea;
Staunchly to seek what may be won
From out the treasures of the deep,
To toil for those at home who sleep
And be the first to greet the sun.
