Mannequins put spin on job
Robotic sign twirlers give human counterparts some stiff competition: 'I get a kick out of them,' says one viewer
ESCONDIDO She turns heads with her flashy good looks. She works for free, never takes a break, and might just be the perfect employee.
She's the latest trend in small-business advertising: a robotic sign twirler dressed as a beautiful young woman.
Instead of paying human sign twirlers as much as $10 an hour to grab the attention of drivers, several North County businesses have recently bought and installed robot twirlers, which look like department store mannequins.
Merchants place the robot twirlers in a conspicuous location, where their mechanical arms gently wave a sign advertising the business or promoting a special service or discount.
There are some questions as to whether the robots might violate sign ordinances or other regulations, but the robots are showing up more and more because they're so popular with merchants.
"She's a little hottie, and she's gotten an awful lot of attention," Dave Mizzell said of the robot twirler in front of his business, Killer Pizza From Mars in north Escondido. "She's been fantastic."
Mizzell said "Kelly" has been more effective than the people he previously used.
"I had human sign spinners who just didn't get it," Mizzell said. "They would be texting or hiding behind the sign. But she never loses focus, she never takes a break, and she always shows up for work."
Mizzell bought Kelly for $1,600 just after Thanksgiving, and he said it was some of the smartest money he has ever spent.
"I was paying human spinners $10 an hour and using them five or six hours a day, so she paid for herself in just a few weeks," he said.
Another robot twirler recently began catching the attention of drivers at eastern Escondido's Midway Mobil.
"Think about how many cars went by when the human twirlers were on a break," said the manager of the gas station. "They didn't work hard, and they couldn't handle the hot weather."
Most people do a double-take when they first see a robot twirler. They can't tell whether it's human or not. But when they figure out what they're seeing, they typically smile or laugh.
"I get a kick out of them," said Fred Baranowski, chairman of the Escondido Chamber of Commerce economic development subcommittee. "I guess the trade-off is a drop in employment."
The attention that the robots grab, especially the double-takes, is key to why merchants like them so much, said Adir Levy, co-founder of Dancing Mannequins in Los Angeles.
"That's the kind of attention you want," Levy said.
Levy said his business, which is only a couple of years old, is growing fast. He estimated that fewer than 1,000 robot sign twirlers are at work in the nation, but many more are on the way.
"They're pretty new, and they're just getting to the West Coast," he said. "There aren't very many in San Diego County, but we've been selling a few."
Outside of Escondido, Valley Pawn at Valley Center and Cole Grade roads recently installed one of the female robotic twirlers, a brunette with a long braid.
Escondido city officials said this week that they hadn't yet explored the legality of the robot twirlers.
The city has been reluctant to regulate human sign twirlers because of free speech rights, but city planning chief Barbara Redlitz said robots don't have First Amendment protection.
And Mayor Sam Abed said he wants to prohibit the robot twirlers and also crack down on feather signs.
"It's going too far, and drivers are being distracted," he said. "People have to look for other ways to promote their businesses."
Mizzell, the pizza parlor owner, said concerns about distracted drivers seem overblown. He said there haven't been any crashes near the restaurant since he installed Kelly more than two months ago.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The principal of a high-performing District of Columbia school wants to hire his wife as assistant principal, drawing some objections.
When Richard Trogisch, the principal at School Without Walls Senior High School, was asked to also oversee a struggling elementary and middle school, he agreed on the condition that he is allowed to hire his wife. He says Chief of Schools John Davis agreed to his request.
Trogisch says he wants to work with his wife in leading Francis-Stevens Education Campus because she's a strong educator. Cynthia Trogisch is currently a teacher at Hardy Middle School.
But D.C.'s ethics manual prohibits employees from appointing, employing or promoting the hiring of relatives.
Schools spokeswoman Melissa Salmanowitz says no hiring decisions have been made.
The Foggy Bottom Current first reported the arrangement.

Swimmer's ear is an infection in the outer ear canal, which runs from your eardrum to the outside of your head. It's often brought on by water that remains in your ear after swimming, creating a moist environment that aids bacterial growth.
Putting fingers, cotton swabs or other objects in your ears also can lead to swimmer's ear by damaging the thin layer of skin lining your ear canal.
Swimmer's ear is also known as acute external otitis or otitis externa. The most common cause of this infection is bacteria invading the skin inside your ear canal. Usually you can treat swimmer's ear with eardrops. Prompt treatment can help prevent complications and more-serious infections.
Swimmer's ear symptoms are usually mild at first, but they may get worse if your infection isn't treated or spreads. Doctors often classify swimmer's ear according to mild, moderate and advanced stages of progression.
Call your doctor immediately or visit the emergency room if you have:
Swimmer's ear is an infection that's usually caused by bacteria commonly found in water and soil. Infections caused by a fungus or a virus are less common.
Your outer ear canals have natural defenses that help keep them clean and prevent infection. Protective features include:
If you have swimmer's ear, your natural defenses have been overwhelmed. Conditions that can weaken your ear's defenses and promote bacterial growth include:
Factors that may increase your risk of swimmer's ear include:
Swimmer's ear usually isn't serious if treated promptly, but complications can occur.
Here are some suggestions to help you get ready for your appointment and understand what to expect from your doctor.
If you're experiencing any signs or symptoms of swimmer's ear, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
Don't hesitate to ask any other questions you have.
Your doctor is likely to ask you some of the following questions:
Doctors can usually diagnose swimmer's ear during an office visit. If your infection is at an advanced stage or persists, you may need further evaluation.
Your doctor will likely diagnose swimmer's ear based on symptoms you report, questions he or she asks, and an office examination. You probably won't need a lab test at your first visit. Your doctor's initial evaluation will usually include:
Depending on initial assessment, symptom severity or the stage of your swimmer's ear, your doctor may recommend additional evaluation.
The goal of treatment is to stop the infection and allow your ear canal to heal.
Cleaning your outer ear canal is necessary to help eardrops flow to all infected areas. Your doctor will use a suction device or ear curette to clean away any discharge, clumps of earwax, flaky skin and other debris.
For most cases of swimmer's ear, your doctor will prescribe eardrops that have some combination of the following ingredients, depending on the type and seriousness of your infection:
Ask your doctor about the best method for taking your eardrops. Some ideas that may help you use eardrops include the following:
If your ear canal is completely blocked by swelling, inflammation or excess discharge, your doctor may insert a wick made of cotton or gauze to promote drainage and help draw medication into your ear canal.
If your infection is more advanced or doesn't respond to treatment with eardrops, your doctor may prescribe oral antibiotics.
Your doctor may recommend easing the discomfort of swimmer's ear with over-the-counter pain relievers, such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others), naproxen (Aleve, others), or acetaminophen (Tylenol, others).
If your pain is severe or your swimmer's ear is at a more advanced stage, your doctor may prescribe a stronger medication for pain relief.
During treatment, the following steps will help keep your ears dry and avoid further irritation:
Follow these tips to avoid swimmer's ear:

It is my honor and pleasure to greet you from my new post as director of ONEplace@kpl.
As I begin my tenure, allow me to add my voice to the many that showered gratitude on Bobbe Luce over the past few weeks. Under her leadership, ONEplace@kpl became an indispensible asset to many who serve nonprofits. Supported by a network of consultants, trainers, and others, Bobbe developed an effective mix of classes, webinars, roundtables and other resources that continue to equip nonprofit staff and boards to flourish. So, once again, "Thank you, Bobbe!"
I've spent my entire 15 years in Kalamazoo working for nonprofits, most recently with the Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra. I look forward to working with you in this new capacity. In my spare time, I enjoy reading nonprofit leadership & management books. One of my favorite authors is Jim Collins. His newest release, Great by Choice, addresses the question: why do some companies thrive in uncertainty, even chaos, and others do not?
Using a comparison study method as he did in Good to Great, Collins demonstrates the value of strong values, consistently applied and the importance of a long-term approach to mission-driven work. As he nears the close of the book, he reiterates one of the main lessons from his previous work: "Greatness is not a function of circumstance. Greatness is largely a matter of conscious choice and discipline."What conscious choice has your organization made – what is its mission? Do you know it? Does everyone on the staff and board know it? Is it engraved on their hearts?To succeed in times such as these – indeed, at any time – clarity of mission is the first imperative. Best,ThomJim Collins provides a Good to Great Diagnostic Tool that you may use to assess where your organization is on its journey to being great. When there are differences between businesses and nonprofit (social sector) organizations, he points these out. Find the tool at http://www.jimcollins.com/tools/diagnostic-tool.pdf

Someone once said, the term "working mother" is redundant, since few people have typically done more for us than our moms. Here are some ways to return the favor, even if you heart is full, but your funds are low.
Make a date with your mom at Starbucks for a half-price Frappucinno during the happy hours of 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. This deal begins May 6th and runs through May 16th.
Do you have a mom who loves to cook? Don't let her in the kitchen on her special day, but do order her a hardbound Taste of Home cookbook for only $5. These typically sell for up to $28.
You can also take a road trip with mom and let her enjoy a free admission at the Royal Gorge Bridge and Park. That's right, mom gets in free on Sunday, May 9th. Also in the month of May, active and retired military and people living in Fremont County receive half-price admissions.

intellectual honesty up front: i havent used this knife underwater yet. okay, more honesty i read all the reviews, good and not-so-good, and picked it anyway because the blue and black color scheme worked. heres what i can tell you for sure. anomalies aside that can happen to any manufacturer, the blade is well made and came honed to an outstanding edge, the sheaths positive lock works and is easy to use (youll see that in a lot of other reviews), the grip is worth a lot more than theyre charging for it, and disassembly is a piece of cake. of course its light its titanium. i typically buy things by going with the most expensive i can find just to try and ensure quality. i could have spent a lot more on a knife, but dont think i could be any happier.

A former teachers aid has been arrested for assaulting a handicapped student here in Eastern Carolina.
Halifax County deputies charged Dozine Jones of Enfield with assaulting a handicapped person. The 54-year-old woman worked at Northwest High School and deputies say the alleged assault happened last June. They say the victim received minor bruising to the leg which was spotted by the medical staff at the victim's group home.
Jones, who was fired in October from her job, was given a $1,000 bond and has a January 23rd court date.

Congratulations, it turned out very well. Has a stately feeling to it.
Good job
So here is the finished main city. I was going to do up a version with a key but once I got to 75 in numbers for locations my map was becoming obscured and I still had another 50 to go, so if you use it then you can key it however you please I had to bump the quality down from 12 to 11 to make the file size so I don't know how much it will be affected.
Congratulations, it turned out very well. Has a stately feeling to it.
Good job
Looks really cool.

Beautiful work Ascension. Dark and rich palette gives it a very polished and classical feel.

Software Used: Terranoise, Wilbur, Terragen, The Gimp, Inkscape, Mojoworld
Hey great job Ascension!
I was wondering - did you emboss the fill on the buildings to make the roofs or did you create them in something besides photoshop/gimp?
Also, your textures are killer! Where'd you get them from?
Very nice. I like the wild look of the hills around the edges. Town is neat but a bit prettier than most viking settlements are depicted commonly.
I totally agree with the pretty and uber-civilized thing, when I first started the map it was nothing but huts and since that doesn't really lend itself to anything very striking from a visual point I started decorating instead of designing. Once I started throwing in bells and whistles I couldn't stop and my Nordic fjord evolved into something more like a Mediterranean bay. I even spent 4 nights researching medieval occupations (I have a super huge list now) so that I could put in as many different things as possible and once each occupation had it's own building I had forgot to put in housing so I went back and ripped out a bunch of stuff...live and learn. Guess I need to get myself a copy of the DM guide so it can tell me exactly how many cobblers and weavers that a city of X size needs instead of just using my experience with city-building games and my intuition.
Redstar, the buildings are all just various layer styles: pattern overlays, color overlays, bevel/emboss, etc. I'll be posting these styles for all of the Photoshop users to use, probably later tonight once I get em all labeled correctly, as well as the brushes I've created for the buildings and stuff. That's what I was doing last night instead of mapping. These will be over in the mapping elements subforum.

Police released surveillance photos of the woman leaving a Walmart on Monday with hopes that someone would recognize her.

Monday April 1, 2013
Undated--Creighton's Doug McDermott is an All-America for the second straight year while Trey Burke of Michigan and Otto Porter Jr. of Georgetown tied as the leading vote-getters for The Associated Press' first team.
Victor Oladipo of Indiana and Kelly Olynyk of Gonzaga are the other players on the team announced Monday.
Burke, the dynamic point guard, and Porter, the smooth, solid forward, both received 62 first-team votes and 319 points from the same 65-member national media panel that selects the weekly Top 25.
Oladipo, whose all-around play kept the Hoosiers in the No. 1 ranking longer than any other team this season, was third in the voting. McDermott, the efficient scorer, is the 51st repeat selection and the second in as many years following Jared Sullinger of Ohio State.
Olynyk, who became the country's best center, rounds out the first team.

This page is tagged because it NEEDS REVIEW. You can help the Joomla! Documentation Wiki by contributing to it.
More pages that need help similar to this one are here. NOTE-If you feel the need is satistified, please remove this notice.
Component Release Files
Included in this example are zip files for four releases. You will need to download all four to exercise the features of this example.

The zip file can be downloaded from democompupdate_10.zip. It contains files:

Version 1.0.j3
The zip file can be downloaded from democompupdate_10j3.zip. It is identical to version 1.0, except that is requires Joomla 30.0. The intent is that this will cause an abort of the install or update. Diff's of democompupdate_10 and democompupdate_10j3 show how files have changed.

- "Congressman Alex Shrub has jumped on the pre-election bandwagon and he's going after the puritan vote. Rumors are he's gonna support measures to restrict, shall we say, the more fleshy aspects of this nation's great entertainment industry."
- ―Steve Scott.
Martha's Mug Shot is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City given to protagonist Tommy Vercetti by porn film director Steve Scott from the InterGlobal Studios in Prawn Island, Vice City.
Congressman Alex Shrub wants to win the next election by supporting restrictions on the porn film industry. As this is bad for InterGlobal Films, Tommy wants to follow Candy Suxxx to Shrub. Tommy follows Candy to a penthouse in Vice Point. Candy enters the penthouse to meet with Shrub while Tommy enters the WK Chariot Hotel across the street. With Shrub in his most embarrassing and politically damaging outfit, Tommy manages to take photos of him with a camera from a good vanatage point in the hotel. Shrub's guards sees this and dispatched the FBI to take down Tommy and his camera. Tommy manages to return safely to the studio and plans to use the pictures for blackmailing.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Get in the chopper
- Follow Candy's Stretch
- You need three good blackmail photos of Alex Shrub with Candy. The WK Chariot Hotel across from his balcony should provide an ideal photo-grabbing location. There is a side door that will allow access to the hotel
- Get back to the Porn Studios with the film
- Once the player enters the WK Chariot Hotel and makes the photos through a window of the building, Alex realizes that he is being photographed and orders his FBI bodyguards to go after Tommy and kill him. The player gets a wanted level of four stars and should exit the building being attacked in the corridors of the building by various Alex's bodyguards making it difficult to return to the studio.
- To make the mission easier, you can take pictures of the roof of another building close by using a helicopter to get there. The helicopter can also be a perfect getaway vehicle when you go back to the studio to complete the mission without having to kill anyone and avoiding the police.
The reward for this mission is $4,000. The mission G-Spotlight is unlocked.
- This is the only mission in GTA Vice City where the player can use a camera (without modifications).
- This is the only time in GTA Vice City when the player can obtain a special, gold Stretch. After Candy is dropped off, the Stretch will park itself on the road just south of Malibu Club. After clearing the wanted level, the player can obtain the Stretch and proceed to complete the mission normally.
- During the cutscene, Steve states that "after his close encounter with the nympho-invaders", the hero of the movie is "unable to think of anything but this huge phallic mountain" and then mentions doing a scene with a vat of mashed potatoes. This is an obvious reference to the real film Close Encounters of the Third Kind, which has the main character, after encountering a UFO, become obsessed with the vaguely phallic Devil's Tower National Monument, at one point making several sculptures of it with, among other materials, mashed potatoes.

Aamer Madhani, USA TODAY
If National Security Adviser Tom Donilon wants to be the next Secretary of State, he's not saying.
After delivering a speech previewing President Obama's upcoming trip to east Asia and detailing the administration's ongoing "Asia pivot" on Thursday, Donilon was asked during a short question-and-answer session about his interest in the job.
Donilon, who delivered his remarks at the Washington think Center for Strategic and International Studies, answered in detail another part of the questioner's query on the timing of Obama's trip to Myanmar. But when pressed on his interest in the job, Donilon only smiled and moved on the next question.
Clinton has said she would like to leave the post early in Obama's second term.
The president said at his news conference on Wednesday that he's made no decision on who he'll pick for the spot, though he vigorously defended another contender for the job, United Nations Amb. Susan Rice, who has faced sharp criticism from Republicans for incorrectly stating that the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi was precipitated by a protest.
Donilon is also believed to be in the mix to serve as Obama's next chief of staff should he picked his chief of staff, Jack Lew, to become the next Treasury secretary. Like Clinton, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner has said he would like to leave his post before Obama's inauguration in January.

Today I saw a match. Geishart kills lebeau to double hit two units, killing them, triggers lebeau's close skill, which hits guardian, which hits lebeau again, who hits guardian again... until guardian is dead and lebeau is at some crazy negative hp (both closes). So close skills can trigger after counters multiple times.
Can someone explain why lebeau kept on damaging guardian? Why was the close skill queued again after lebeau got damaged?
I would like to get some hypotheticals too (ways to exploit this). I know that with burning air, you can potentially get close skills to trigger, then slot 9 liz can revive everyone so the skills can be used later again. Now the thing is... is it possible to have close skills (like zu) hit other already dead guys and have their close skills trigger again?

Your Los Angeles Fire Department is more than 125 years old now. And during that period of time, the Department has saved the lives of thousands of people in and around Los Angeles. Often, the people saved have suffered a stroke, been hit by a bus, or have collapsed due to a heart attack. In Los Angeles, with more than 1,000 emergency responses per day, and more than 500 transports to local hospitals in an average 24-hour period, you might think the process of saving lives is routine. It may seem that way, but it isn't.
For people watching the freeway rescue taking place on March 23, 1998, it seemed that Fire 3, the air ambulance that picked up a young patient was just doing what it normally did. Minutes later, the helicopter crashed, within minutes of its destination. The young patient, along with LAFD members Michael McComb, Eric Reiner, and Michael Butler were killed. Not an ordinary day.
When the Naval Reserve Training Center's attic was discovered to be fully involved with fire on September 27, 1980, the fire attack initiated by the LAFD seemed to be managed with the military precision that the Department is known for. When firefighter Frank Hotchkin stepped onto the roof to provide support, it collapsed, sending young Hotchkin to his death. Not an ordinary day.
The stories continue - and there are nearly 200 of them. Each one is personal. Each one involves a parent, a sibling, a friend, and co-workers. On February 18, 2011, firefighters responded to a structure fire in the Hollywood Hills. After a few minutes, the living area of the home appeared to be clear of smoke, and the size up suggested a stubborn fire might be in one of the walls. Without warning, the ceiling collapsed, burying firefighters in the rubble, and mortally wounding Glen Allen. To many watching, it was just another routine fire on an ordinary day. It was not an ordinary day for the LAFD.
Every October, the LAFD gathers in Hollywood, at the Fallen Firefighter Memorial outside of the LAFD Museum. Fire officials speak. Historians remember. Taps are played. Bells are rung and names are read. And we remember. We remember that every day is a special day for the people who live in Los Angeles. The weather is nearly always perfect. The ocean is close by. The clubs are filled with party-goers. The film industry cranks out blockbusters. And the LAFD responds - every day, 24/7/365. And every one of its 3,400+ members wears a badge that reads "LAFD." That badge represents a commitment - a commitment to give up their life at any time to protect lives and property. That's why we remember.

President David L. Soltz
President David L. Soltz
Office of the President
Bloomsburg University

Bloomsburg, PA 17815-1301
President Office Staff
Deputy to the President
Brenda S. Cromley | 570-389-4674
COT Administrative Assistant
Jennifer Williams | 570-389-4523
Executive Associate to the President
Angela Crossley | 570-389-4526
David L. Soltz, Ph.D., became Bloomsburg University's 18th president in January 2008 after serving as provost and senior vice president for academic affairs at Central Washington University.
Since arriving at Bloomsburg, Soltz has concentrated on building programs and infrastructure for today's students and those who will follow. The university's strategic plan, Impact 2015: Building on the Past, Leading for the Future, was developed under his leadership and introduced in fall 2010. A new general education model that is currently in the implementation stage is designed to enhance learning opportunities for all students and to prepare them for personal and professional success in an increasingly complex global environment.
A strong advocate for high-quality, affordable education, Soltz appeared before the state legislature in support of adequate funding for BU and the entire Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education. His belief in the importance of international education has revitalized Bloomsburg's articulation agreement with the Moscow Finance Academy and initiated agreements with institutions in other countries, including Cameroon which he visited with 22 BU students in 2011. He delivered the keynote address at the 2010 GlobalAwareness Society International conference in Poland.
Soltz has overseen additions and renovations to buildings including Haas Center for the Arts, Bakeless Center, Hartline Science Center, Nelson Field House, Sutliff Hall and Columbia and Elwell residence halls, as well as a number of projects to reduce energy consumption.
He is actively engaged in service and leadership in higher education through membership on the AASCU Policies and Purposes Committee and serves annually as the leader of an accreditation site visit team for the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. He also serves as Chair of the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference.
His goals as Bloomsburg's president grew from his broad and deep higher education background as provost and chief academic officer at Central Washington University, dean of natural and social sciences at California State University at Los Angeles and chair of the department of biological sciences at California State University, Long Beach. As a faculty member, he's taught courses ranging from freshman seminar and general biology for non-majors to graduate seminars on ecology and evolutionary biology.
Soltz earned a bachelor's degree in zoology from the University of California, Berkeley, and a doctoral degree in biology from the University of California, Los Angeles. His research focuses on environmental biology and the population biology of fishes living in stressful environments, such as high temperature and high salinity. He has written one book, a symposium volume and numerous journal articles and environmental reports.
Active in the local community and the region, Soltz serves on the Geisinger Health System Advisory Council and the Columbia Montour Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors. The president enjoys hiking and flyfishing in his leisure time and, with his wife, Robbie, rides and raises quarterhorses. The Soltz's have three adult children and seven grandchildren.

Aeronautics and automobiles
In 1915, three outstanding men pooled their energy to create instruments for the pioneers of aeronautics and automobiles. They were Jacques-David LeCoultre (1881-1948), Edmond Jaeger (1851-1922) and Edmond Audemars (1882-1970). Audemars was a childhood friend of Jacques-David LeCoultre, a cycling champion, and the first aviator to fly between Paris and Berlin. He would be the beneficiary of Roland Garros's will. At 6120 m, he had just smashed the flying altitude record. Despite layers of clothing his feet had nearly frozen. Partly made in the Joux Valley, signed Jaeger, the counters, chronographs, 8 day watches, automatic pilots, and goniometers equipped the allied aviators during the First World War, and the most prestigious post-war automobiles.

Until the 1960s, Wegner typically collaborated with cabinetmaker Johannes Hansen to realize his designs, most notably gracefully tapered and curved solid wood chairs, often composites of wood and woven rattan or leather. He occasionally experimented with laminates, as in the Three-Legged Shell Chair (1963), or steel and ox hide as in the Ox-Chair (1960) for Erik Jørgensen. While he is best known for his chairs, Wegner has also created memorable cabinetry, desks, tables, beds and lighting. Read more >

Dear members,
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff
Hmm...the whole "Shinobi Alliance no Jutsu" is just plain CHEEEESSSYYY.
Originally Posted by SilverfoxUchiha
rubbish chapter. 2/5 too much pointless talking and posing. and why were madara and obito just standing there staring into space and not responding to the attack
Exactly, this manga SUCKS now. It's so garbage ATM, I don't like Sasuke very much but we need to see Sasuke and Oro find the one who knows all.
Ehh. Not too thrilled about this chapter. Nothing too interesting happening.
A little concrete isn't gonna stop the Juubi
Hopefully next week will be a better chapter.
Excited to see Sasuke/Orochimaru and the one who "knows it all". Can't wait for that.
But this chapter. Could've been way better. C'mon Kishi! GET WITH THE PROGRAM!
Next chapter, Gai will tell Lee to take off the weights, and he will proceed to kick ass, then go further into his kick-ass mode by opening the seventh gate, Madara, Obito and even the jyuubi will be too scared to react. Just kidding, but I seriously hope next chapter we see what Lee is capable of.
Xaviour: How the heck does he know that Obito's intangibility only lasts for 5 minutes ?
Kakashi told him
the ones that hate this chapter is completely a sasuke fan, because they want sasuke to be the one who defeat Obito and Madara they are really really disappointed... sucks to be you (homos) what do you expect? change the Title of the "Naruto" manga to Sasuke?
on other hand;
the combination of the alliance is good it's just like in alchemy... it reminds me of the witcher 2 EE mission.
about obito's intangibility info maybe they found konan's body... or maybe she tell her (awoooo)... just get over it!
and please Shut up the chapter is good, its just too short so 4/5 to me...
bunch of gayness in this forums i cant stand it anymore...
are anime fans really gay? dont make me start on something... Ban me if you like i dont care anymore... whiny homos...
i like the combination but need more action come kishi i was expecting much more, Shikaku is smart as shit!!!! Props to the Nara Clan.
Madara's such a boss. Just see him cross his arms the entire time like the entire combo was nothing to him
Originally Posted by Ranificent
Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Konan state that Obito could stay 'phased' for 10 minutes?
10 min was the duration of her paper bombs exploding .
somewhat needed for the story to progress..plotholes though
18 pages of them making ciment xD the only good thing is on the last page left down corner the 10 tails arm taking its ultimate formu :D its avrage at best :D raiting it 3 ":D
Was like reading a cake recipe. mix water with earth, and then fire to heat it up, blah blah
I, too, found it rather silly that they went thru all that to pour concrete on the freakin Juubi lol, and it's already cracking and they just did it lol. Why don't they just throw paper airplanes at it and see if that works
3/5 just cuz there's no reason that the 10 tails couldnt react to any of the blinding techniques with a typhoon attack with its tail or somthin...but then I guess then Madara wouldn't be able to see how much things have changed, by witnessing the shinobi alliance no jutsu *tear*
Pretty good chapter. I'll leave it at that
it was an alright chapter but last weeks arrived was much better and as you can see from the madara and obito panels, there laughing atm, ten tails would never get pinned down by such a combination of techniques. and why does obito think hes running the show...He never shuts up now lol obito is guna get a good slap by madara soon...Cause there can only be one that sees this plan through and thats madara.

You think you can write Naruto better than him?
Rite?? They compliment so overate last week but this week all not satisfied.. dunno what their problem duh..
