i dare say this is off topic from league in most ways, and there is an entire forum for things like this. that said i think it would have to go like this imo ghost in the shell (the movie) ghost in the shell stand alone complex 1st season (2nd good too but laughing man ark is too good) darker than black black lagoon princess mononoke if movies don't count then ghost in the shell stand alone complex darker than black black lagoon steins;gate and lastly code geass/code geass r2, an animated opera with giant robots. really, it's more opera than anime.

PHOENIX -- The latest weather models are suggesting we have about a 30 percent chance to see some scattered showers around the Valley on Saturday.
For sure, we're going to get cooler temperatures, clouds and rather breezy conditions by the weekend.
The change is the result of a rather strong cold front for this time of year that will drop high temperatures into the 70s for the weekend.
It's early in the forecast cycle so the possibility for rain Saturday is just a chance at this point. Depending on the timing of the system, there could be enough moisture around to make rain or we could miss out on precipitation entirely.
In the meantime, we're going to finish up the week with highs right around 90 degrees on Thursday and Friday.

5 Ex-Dividend Stocks With Buy Ratings
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The following stocks go ex-dividend Friday, meaning an investor must purchase the shares Thursday to qualify for the next dividend payment: Realty Income (O - Get Report), Hasbro (HAS - Get Report), Brookfield Asset Management (BAM - Get Report), Casey's General Stores (CASY - Get Report) and Carbo Ceramics (CRR - Get Report).
Each of the stocks received a buy rating from TheStreet Ratings.
Realty Income
The commercial real estate owner and acquirer is scheduled to report first-quarter results on Thursday. Analysts, on average, anticipate earnings of 48 cents a share on revenue of $114.87 million.
"We rate shares of O Neutral," JPMorgan analysts wrote in an April 13 report. "The company's portfolio is performing fine, it has been very active on the acquisition front, and it has one of the best balance sheets in the REIT space, but we think this is reflected in O's premium valuation." Forward Annual Dividend Yield: 4.5% Rated "A+ (Buy)" by TheStreet Ratings: The company's fourth-quarter gross profit margin was basically the same as the previous year. In the fourth quarter, stockholders' net worth increased 22.08% from the prior year. TheStreet Ratings' price target is $43.87.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

quote:1) We have ethanol subsidies and mandates here. They have driven the price of corn and other crops up to ridiculous levels
quote:4) We have minimum wages here. Imports don't deal with that.
quote:1) Yes, this new bill makes it tougher on imports.
quote:2) It is being discussed because domestic farmers are struggling to compete with foreign farmers.
quote:4) The US government has regulated domestic farmers to a point to where they claim they can't compete
quote:Feed season is march through early november
quote:I hate narrow minded idealogists like you who can't objectively look at the big picture,
quote:work today has been awful due to 2 employers not showing up, having 5 tractors and 15 aerators broke, and a drain pipe broke and is gushing water and I got to somehow stop it so I'm not in a very friendly mood today
quote: gladly show you the correllation betwenn ethanol and domestic producers decline.
quote:Ethanol drives up the price of grain worldwide. When the largest corn producing country in the world diverts 40% of it's corn to fuel it impacts all grains and all markets. It is not just a US producer cost. Yes ethanol subsidies suck.
quote:Maybe not. BMW has much higher labor cost than we do but exports cars to the US for example. I am not sure about wage laws in other catfish producing countries but to say "imports" don't deal with it as if all imports don't is just not true.
quote:Not in fresh markets as I have demonstrated. Now if we are going to have "level playing fields" should we subsidize air freight so the Vietnamese can fly fresh fish in?? Of course not.
quote:Has it ever occurred to you we just might not be competitive growing catfish and processing and freezing them because of market issues?
quote: Should Delta decide to grow catfish in Alaska how many protective tariffs should he get then?
quote:If this were about equalizing and consolidating food inspection that would be one thing but you can tell from Delta's incessant whining about cost and profits it is far more than that.
quote:It is special interest looking for favors from government whether it is corn growers and ethanol, film producers and film tax credits, insurance companies and Landrieucare or defense contractors and failed aircraft.
quote:I looked at it completely objectively.
quote: I didn't see you or Delta mentioning all the findings on the quality of the imported fish
quote: the size of catfish tariffs
quote:or that domestic fish enjoy advantages because of less shipping cost and distribution cost
quote:You guys won't even acknowledge that MSU's survey said consumers liked the import better.
quote:Now an objective look should certainly include all of those things wouldn't you agree?
quote:special interest catfish farmers want consumers to pay more (an absolute fact)

I got a PPS recently (see Boo's PPS range report) and took it to the range today. 200 rounds of WWB 115 grain. Very accurate, more so than I am (couple of nice 2" groups at 15yds). Mild recoil, especially compared to the PF9, but the PPS is considerably heavier. Had one stovepipe when I shot with my weak hand only. Crappy loose grip, arm moving, ect, blablabla, yeah, I would say that was entirely my fault. Shot some 115 grain Gold Dots as well, no problem. The trigger reset is a little gritty, but I assume that will clear up with more shooting and dry firing. I am very happy with it.
I ordered a Smartcarry and a Crossbreed for it. I intend to use it as a BUG, or a primary in deep concealment when the fullsize M&P is too hard to conceal.

I was thinking a Game mode that was just straight zany: everyone starts at lvl 18 lvl up DElvls you 1 lvl, taking an obj(Drag, tower, baron) gives your whole team back a level. When you delvl, you have to delvl a skill each player is only allowed to build one build path for an item (so if you take a giants belt, then a chain vest, your only allowed giant's belts, chain vests, and sunfire capes) Boots are exempt. Items passives are stack able Instead of inhibs creating super minions, destroying an inhib allows players on the benefitting team to recruit minions by hitting enemy minions (hitting a purple minion turns them blue.) inhib respawn time lowered a bit though I justthink that making the rules of the game weird will make for some hilarious moments.

Standoff. Three players, Free for all.
Since lore seems pretty neglected to me by most of the players, have lore based teams. Yordels vs Void, Demacia vs Noxus etc. Also, I hate "Ultra Rapid Fire." It's totally unimaginative and absurd and I would go on complaining more but that isn't what this thread is for. Either way, I hate it enough to actually post something which is a miracle.
A Hunger Games version of league!! Like normal play/ranked play. There will be cooldown reduction, increased health regen and only a stock of 5 lives. the last one standing is the winner. The map would be like the dominion map but alot larger and with jungle camps. As a champion moves for extended periods of time, he starts slowing down to up to 75% of his max speed. There is no fountain healing. and everyone starts in a circle in the middle. In the middle are relics which give you items upon hitting them(they are color coded, 1-5 hits between green to red. the green ones break in one hit but give simple things the red ones break into better things. NO LEGENDARY ITEMS HERE) The shop can be accessed from anywhere and relics can be found throughout the map. depending on the servers of riot, there can be between 10 and 20 people playing. There will be AI gamemakers, setting random rogue monsters to attack targets who are getting too far ahead and also causing random gifts to players who are falling too far behind. note. the rogue monsters will not give gold to the champ which kills them so they wont end up getting further ahead.(lol) There are some flaws in this plan but and i am open to feedback!!! I posted this on Reddit and i got lots of positive feedback and i hope you like it!!!

Lore wars. Going to be unbalanced as hell, but 5v5 map where nations compete to settle political disputes, using only the champions in their faction. So Noxus vs Demecia, Void vs Ionia, etc. Every now and then champions like Sivir will be like, sivir working for Demecia cause they offered more gold and such. #lorethings.
Sasquatch Ninja
The title would be: One for Rapid Hexakill SOOOOO basically, As you can tell it is U.R.F., Hexakill and One for all, all in one gamemode. A new map would be made for 4 teams and Riot needs to get their stuff together before making this gamemode because the lag would be awe inspiring. EUW would crash many times over and the amount of champions that need to be exhausted would be substantial but it would be so cool for the 3 minutes the servers would be able to handle. Another idea is: Highroller So money comes in at 20 per sec and you can have infinite items as well as all passives stack even things like infinity edge 250% on crit to 500% on crit so on. But the catch is, you only get xp from kils so you have to kill to level up. (minions count) and also there is no death times. die then come back. I think 100 warmogs would be awesome. #3 Custom Custom Make your own gamemode for a custom. You get a set variable perimeters that you can alter to make whatever you like. An input for coders would be allowed so that they can make their own game modes that go beyond the perimeters. Though I think if they make these games too complex they would crash the server so maybe only allowed over lan would be fine. perimeters like changing flash range and changing cooldowns, making ranged people melee but still shoot at a distance. item limits. New items you have coded. #4 Nerf Irelia #5 It will be titled: ???? So in this game mode you go into que blah blah then you get put with a random champ with random spells and a random masteries and random runes. (dont have to be your runes) then you start the game and you may start with some of the other team in your base. and turrets will target people at random. This is a game of luck. Also you may or may not be placed with challenger leveled players. regardless if you are. #6 Commander It's a 1v1 but you are the commander of all and you don't play as a champ you just control minions (randomly spawned supers) also you can grant turrets, movement speed for a while and they will think for themselves. you just let the move. #7 20,000 Start with 20,000 HP then it's a single death thing. once you lose all of your health you stay out but your income of money is diverted to the remaining players. #8 Earthquake This takes a game similar to URF and makes it so that randomly walls will shoot up and cliffs will appear. Fall damage is a thing now and 0-gravity occurs at 20 minutes. Where you are stuck in your place and can only walk if certain (new) items are build that add propulsion #9 This is really a modification not a gamemode Wear your build #10 (last one, don't worry) Creeper's Hood So in this you all play as a team (5) person but there is no real opponent just a bunch of randomly spawning creeps. That includes Dragons, Barons, Wolves, Wraiths, Golems, Lizards and of course to make things fair everyone has smite as a 3rd spell. This is a team of Junglers. Anyways I love the ideas but they would be so broken.
All the players in a match place IP bets. THe winning team splits all the IP for the other team evenly. The higher the level of gameplay the higher the entry for the matches would be. This way if someone wants to earn quick they have to carry their team. And its a big risk.
6-8 player free for all on dominion map.

Sunland Park Community Fedup With Corruption
POSTED: Sunday, April 8, 2012 - 8:38pm
UPDATED: Monday, April 9, 2012 - 9:40am
SUNLAND PARK, NM — The Sunland Park community is in limbo.
The man recently elected as mayor faces new fraud charges.
City leaders are now waiting to either appoint a new mayor or see if the state will intervene and run the city.
Community members in Sunland Park say they are fed-up and sick of the corruption.
The city of Sunland Park got to watch the man they voted as mayor taken away in handcuffs yet again.
New charges claim Daniel Salinas was receiving and soliciting kickbacks including a recent trip to Mexico where he allegedly used city money to pay for strippers and prostitutes.
Sunland Park resident Leo Perez says there is more than just one person steering the city in the wrong direction.
"I don't trust the people in City Hall because it's the same problem over and over, and it's going to be like that. Nobody can change that. I guess it's going to be the same," said Perez.
After the arrests of multiple city officials, Perez says he's ashamed to admit he's from Sunland Park.
"I go to the gym and everybody told me ' You live in Sunland park?'. Things like that you know? It's like embarrassing," said Perez.
He isn't the only one who's ready to see changes the city.
"I think everybody is. It's been so many problems in this area right now at the race track, El Paso, here. I just want to see it all over so people can get back to a normal way of life without all the drama," said resident Susie Byrd.
"They are also tired about it because there's so many political things in the City Hall that people, what they are being appointed, they won't do anything for the community," said resident Luz Nabarro.
Salina's attorney says the city council should appoint a new mayor who shares the same ideas as Salinas.
Comments News Comments
Some who reject God live lives of diversion and merriment. Their fleshly pursuits seem to yield a carefree and gratified existence. The Bible says there is a certain measure of delight to be had in sin (Hebrews 11:25). The problem is that it is temporary; life in this world is short (Psalm 90:3-12). Sooner or later, the hedonist, like the prodigal son in the parable, finds that worldly pleasure is unsustainable (Luke 15:13-15).

Abstract: | According to the University of New Mexico's Office of Graduate Studies, this dissertation follows a hybrid format; the chapters were written as manuscripts to be submitted to peer-reviewed journals. Chapter 1 was published in the journal Quaternary Research (May, 2011) and chapters 2 and 3 will be submitted to appropriate journals soon after this dissertation is published. Chapter 1 announces new age determinations for previously unstudied topographically-controlled eolian deposits and older ages for sand sheets than were reported by previous investigators. Chapter 2 focuses on the distribution, age, and geomorphic implications of topographically-controlled eolian deposits on Black Mesa. Chapter 3 describes the role of advanced soil profile development on the stability of eolian systems; a factor generally overlooked by researchers interested in quantifying the relative activity of sand dunes. Appendix A contains the results of tests that determine the efficacy of samples used in optically stimulated luminescence dating in all three manuscripts. |

Female Vikings Were Just as Prevalent During Invasions as the Men
By Alicia Lutes on September 3, 2014
There's a long-held belief that women are in need of saving; that fighting, warfare, plundering and the like are men's duties, not suitable for the so-called fairer sex. Yeah, well, nobody tell that to the vikings who invaded eastern England in 900 A.D. They'd be likely to lob your head off, and the one doing the lobbing would very likely be — gasp! — a woman. Historians have just uncovered that way, way more female vikings were around than previously thought.
And no, these female vikings weren't just tending to fires and caring for babies: they had swords and shields of their own to fight with. We know because they were often buried with them, like badasses. In fact, it was that sort of sexist burial presumption — that only men were fighters and therefore likely buried with sword and shield — that, up until this point, left many to presume that the oft-considered brutal folk were a mainly man-fronted affair. And, well, look at what happens when you assume! Eh?
Shane McLeod of the Centre for Medieval and Early Modern Studies at the University of Western Australia published the revelation in the journal Early Medieval Europe. The Study examined exhumed Norse-specific burial sites and sequenced DNA of its buried folk and found a damn near 50/50 split of men and women. Anywhere "between a third to roughly equal" split, the study concluded.
"An increase in the number of finds of Norse-style jewellery in the last two decades has led some scholars to suggest a larger number of female settlers [joined the men]," the study explained. "Indeed, it has been noted that there are more Norse female dress items than those worn by men." Which no doubt seems strange when taken into consideration alongside the previously held beliefs. Why would there be so much lady stuff around if A) women didn't arrive until after the men did the plundering, and B) they weren't also getting involved outside of typical "lady duties?"
McLeod's report studied 14 burial sites in particular, making sure to test only those burials that could be undoubtedly confirmed as Norse, and Viking in particular. And thanks to modern genetic testing, he and his team were able to determine that six of the 14 burials sites were for women, seven were for men, and one was indeterminable. Which is to say: a far bigger percentage than previously suspected.
At one particular mass burial site — Repton Woods — the old conception of solely male Vikings was debunked: "Despite the remains of three swords being recovered from the site, all three burials that could be sexed osteologically were thought to be female, including one with a sword and shield," says the study.
"These results, six female Norse migrants and seven male, should caution against assuming that the great majority of Norse migrants were male, despite the other forms of evidence suggesting the contrary."
Are you surprised to see such equality amongst the legendary raging rovers? Let us know in the comments.
IMAGE: History Channel
Curious that you didn't mention Shield Maidens once in the article. While it is surprising that women were in equal numbers with men at these sites it's difficult to jump to the conclusion that they were also fighting. The weapons they were buried with could just as easily have been their spouses or a family heirloom. And for a time in which many battles and historical events were well documented there seems to be a lack of information to support that it was the norm for them to take up arms.
Every army needs a support system, and that system can easily be larger than the actual battle force. Nurses, quartermasters, cooks, etc… I don't want anyone to think that I am downplaying their role but a historical account to accompany these burial sites would definitely sway me.
Another way of looking at it as well is that Viking military doctrine may have dictated that soldiers were to bring over their families once an invasion had a foothold. Forcing your army to have settlements means you would fight that much harder as opposed to just jumping on a ship and leaving. Cutting your supply lines down also is an important step as well so farms were needed.-
Here is the thing about swords. Usually only well to do vikings would have carried swords as they were expensive and showed status. Swords belong to the viking and would not have been handed down. If they were handed down then we wouldn't see so many in burial sites.
Also, it was common to destroy the sword of a fallen enemy to destroy the power of the sword so that your enemy could not torment you in the afterlife. There are hundreds if not thousands of examples of destroyed (heated and bent around a tree) swords.
I am not saying you are wrong. There definitely needs stronger documentation showing that women on the battlefield were the rule and not the exception.
For more info on Viking swords check out a documentary on Netflix called "Secrets of the Viking Sword" by PBS.
That could be true of the men, too. Though they were buried with swords and shields, perhaps these were just heirlooms or belonged to their spouses; they were really there to support the women fighters, act as nurses and cooks, etc. The soldiers could have brought the men over to establish settlements, build structures and do the heavy labor of farming.
Or you could take it from the quoted experts who have studied the matter that women and men both fought.-
There have only been a few accounted instances of women fighting with vikings. When battles of this era are so well documented they discuss troop movements, how many ships and horses and even grain shipments and yet neglect to even mention something like that? On the other side however, there are many written accounts of men fighting. All of them.
As for taking it from quoted experts… the articles quoted talk about migration of women and men and mention nothing about fighting. Whether they did or didn't fight is moot. You can't come to the conclusion that just because women were there and buried with a weapon means they were warriors. That's where historical accounts come into play, and of all the raids the vikings committed on the romans/byzantines before Christianity spread to their civilization, only a handful mention women among the dead.
And there were a prolific amount of raids.
There are written accounts of women fighting as well. Shieldmaidens. Now based on the fact that Christianity didn't really like women I'd say it's very likely that they would skip writing about the women killing off their men. Then christianity became a thing for the vikings as well making it likely that female glory would be covered up.
And for some reason it didn't log me in when I responded.
This is why female characters feature equally with male characters in our upcoming Viking themed game RUNECAST. Shield Maidens, Rune witches and Bow maidens fight alongside Huscarls and berserkers.
A Swedish friend of mine tole me about how they also had equal footing at home with the men. In governing and in marriage. It all changed when Christianity arrived and suddenly women had little to no rights in the formerly viking countries.
Oh yes, female power for the rapists and pillagers. That's the focus. There was equality with the pillaging.
If you come from a Norse family, and know about your ancestral history, this comes as no surprise at all.
Absolutely Dawn! My first reaction when I read the headline was "Duh!"
It was likely the same as conquering the west.
The published article in question came out in 2011. How is this recent news?
They were also one of the first cultures to have divorce that could be inititated by the women if they decided they didn't want to be married to the men they were with anymore.
i am danish, this is old news, i learned abour this as a kid. I am 27 now…
I am Danish too, and I would really like to know who taught you this? You make it sound like the school system in Denmark teaches unsubstatiated historical myths, because of our common heritage. Nothing could be more wrong. If this is old news to you it's because someone told you a myth when you where a kid – nothing more. The tales of the shieldmaidens are cool, and personally I would love to be able to tell my daughter mores stories of female warriors, astonauts, scientists, carpenters and any other field that can remotely seem of limits to her on account of her sex, so she will know that her oppertunities in life should ideally only be hampered by her own determination to make of it what she wants.
However it should be told as what it is: mythos – and there is nothing wrong with using myth as inspiration. Its just not facts. -
Were not all Danish, Jan
Im a female w viking heritage and I know if it were allowed Id be running around w a sword &shield kickin some ass!
No you wouldn't. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9vcRzerT2E
I'm male w Viking heritage nd I do my ass kicking in the military. Think about in listing
I lost all respect for the author when he put "lob" instead of "Lop." Shame they couldn't get a competent writer to write such a potentially important article.
I also cringed when I read the two instances of lob rather than lop. Also, the author is female – quite obvious from the decided slant of the opening paragraph.
No not surprising. Women did a lot for history, being of Viking heritage, I was taught to fight ,hunt ,build hut and fire with the boys.
My Mom is of Scottish descent. Her ancestors arrived in North America in the 1600's. When I had my DNA tested, her mtDNA type is a rare and from Finland. Yea I believe Viking women came over too
Women live longer, have better health, better instincts and better coping skills. Not to mention that we can bleed every month and not die – plus the ability to push a 9 lb human being out of our Vjay-jay and finish plowing the field. No surprise then that our foremothers could wield an axe in battle….
Women live longer and have better health because they work less. Better instincts, better coping skills? That's why there's so many domestic violence shelters for girls and none for men, right? Because they cope so well with adversity?
In my experience none of the women in my family have better health than the men and all of the men have lived longer. I simply think that this is a "statistical" generalization. I'm not denying that pregnancy is intense and admirable. However, you're implying that women are better than men, and they're not. We are equals capable of the same, and sometimes different things. I'm fine with women seeking out their history. What I'm not fine with is sexism. To say that a woman is better than a man is just as sexist as the reverse.
That's nice but its actually confirmed to be bullshit. Sorry to disappoint you about your "foremothers".https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9vcRzerT2E
This is confirmed to be bullshit. Feminist wishful thinking as expected.
What about Celts? African female warriors? Chinese martial arts female masters? Dude, a guy who reviews a scientific article starting his video arguing about a inaccurate shield in a reenactment it's not the most believable, also you have to remember that the chronicles were altered more than once afterwards, specially by the catholic church, which is one of the most misogynist institutions in the western world. But well, this is bait anyway
So Islam is all about women's rights? Check you head there spanky.
All I see you is giving other people youtube links and links to other "historical" sources. How about you give me a REAL historial journal particle. Something done by someone who works as a historian – a scholar. And not social media. Something like … oh I dunno this: http://www.hurstwic.org/history/articles/society/text/women.htm
Steven, I'd like to ask you how much time you spent with posting this vid under every single positive comment
The author of this insipid shit should actually do research, like reading the actual journal article that was written, and not just some blogs that also didn't read it.
Or maybe, just maybe, leave history to the historians because apparently the research isn't this author's strong point. -
Check the sources : / you are supposed to be god damned journalists! This is damned disappointing.
[…] yeah, there were badass female vikings. We know […]
[…] yeah, there were badass female vikings. We know […]
This is the reason why I won't hesitate to beat up women if they hit me. I mean they can probably beat me up, like their warrior foremothers. Ray Rice and Chris Brown were right. And when women get beat up, they should take it and not act victimized because of it. They are, after all, tough warriors. Men don't act victimized when beaten up. Since women are equal to men in combat prowess and are also the descendants of warriors, they should be treated just like men are when injured or attacked.
