Pot for Pain? Not in Dallas County, No Sir.
Will the feds' new stance on medicinal marijuana have any impact on local users, even though, sadly, Texas isn't among the states that permit the practice? Craig Watkins's office says no way, no how. Local Libertarians, not surprisingly, are crossing their fingers. (As opposed to ...)
"The federal policy shift won't impact the way we evaluate or prosecute cases here," says Kevin Brooks, felony trial bureau chief in the Dallas County District Attorney's Office. "I've never seen a circumstance where people have been caught with a small amount of marijuana and say they're using it for medicinal purposes. If there was a doctor prescribing it or telling them to use it, I'm not saying we wouldn't have any compassion for that, but we'd still have to evaluate it the way we would evaluate any other case -- based on the merits."
Paul Petersen, the chairman of the Dallas County Libertarian Party, would love to see that change. The memo sent to federal prosecutors earlier this week, Petersen tells Unfair Park, is "an example of the pendulum moving back in the direction of individual freedom and responsibility" and "a nice, small step in the right direction."
He agrees Texas seems like one of the last states that would leap onto the medicinal pot bandwagon, but he says that if more states pass laws permitting medicinal use, Texas might eventually do the same. In the meantime, he hopes the new national tide might make waves here anyway.
"We don't have the medical marijuana law here, but I would think it would make a career-oriented prosecutor think twice about where they're spending their time," Petersen says. "It might cause them to see marijuana-related cases as less popular than before."

New to poly and so many questions...

Sounds to me all this jealousy is your own insecurity in yourself. Think of loving others in this way: how can a lifeguard save a drowning person, when they don't know how to swim? How can you love others, when you don't love yourself, first? It sounds cliche', but a wise Indian once told me, "Hey, if it's cliche', cousin, it's probably because it's true".
You can't dump all this jealousy on someone and hope that repeating how you feel will make things better. You both need to stop and realize how your actions are affecting yourselves, and each other. The party story really makes me sort of feel on the side of your guy, because he was trying to say, "See? Things are fun, everything's okay in the world, no need to be upset!" He was trying to share his happiness with you, and your own insecurities overlooked that meaning.
I'm not trying to make you feel guilty, you already feel that, but you need to understand that HE'S not making you jealous. Neither is his crush. YOU are making yourself jealous. If you have no confidence in yourself, you can't have it in others easily. And more frightening enough, your jealousy and insecurity could, in the long run, end up pushing him away.
What I like to do is imagine my husband really enjoying the company of another woman so much, and he's filled to the brim with love, and he comes home, gives me a big kiss, and with a smile from ear to ear, tells me about how he and his lovely new crush had such a wonderful time. I can't tell you how my heart swells at this thought, and I really really really hope you can one day let your love concur your insecurity.

Gene Therapy Unveils New Target for Treating Depression
July 13, 2016 – 12:26 pm
Researchers at Northwestern Medicine say they have manipulated a novel target in the brain using gene therapy that could lead to new treatments for depression. The investigators showed decreasing hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channel proteins reduced depression-like behavior in mice. If replicated in humans, the findings could inform fresh therapies for millions of patients who do not respond to existing treatments for depression. "Drugs currently available for treating depression help most patients, but they stop working for some patients and don't work from the get-go for others," said senior author Dane Chetkovich, M.D., Ph.D., a professor of neurology and physiology at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and a Northwestern Medicine neurologist. "There is a real need for new therapies to help patients desperate for alternatives to the available therapeutic options."
New Targeted Gene Therapy Could Lead to Improved Treatment for Emphysema
July 7, 2016 – 10:00 am
Researchers have developed a new strategy using lung-targeted gene therapy that may lead to improved treatments for inherited diseases including emphysema. Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is the most common genetic cause of emphysema, a chronic lung disease that leads to significant morbidity and mortality. AATD, which affects up to 100,000 Americans, is caused by inheritance of a single gene mutation. The current treatment for patients affected by AATD involves weekly intravenous infusion of the normal AAT protein -- an inconvenient, invasive and expensive option. Delivery of a normal copy of the gene, known as gene therapy, is an experimental approach to treating some genetic conditions including AATD. Because patients with AATD have low levels of AAT protein in their lungs, researchers at the Center for Regenerative Medicine (CReM) of Boston University and Boston Medical Center have focused their recent efforts on evaluating whether targeting gene therapy directly to the lungs may have promise as a treatment for AATD.

Medical Breakthrough: First Zika Vaccine Is Ready For Human Trial
June 23, 2016 – 11:51 am
Scientists around the world have been long trying to design a vaccine that could help control the menace spread of the Zika virus. The efforts made have been particularly substantial after the World Health Organization (WHO) declared Zika outbreak as the public health emergency in February. So far, the researchers have been able to decode the structure of the virus and actually figure out how Zika infected the fetus of the Zika-infected pregnant mother. Now, for the first time, a Zika vaccine has been finally approved for human trials. According to reports, South Korea's GeneOne Life Sciences and Pennsylvania-based vaccine maker Inovio Pharmaceuticals have received approval from the regulatory agency in the United States to test their DNA vaccine on humans.
Gene Therapy Is Curing Hemophilia
June 20, 2016 – 11:57 am
Maurits has hemophilia B, which means his body doesn't produce enough factor IX, a protein that clots blood. He's at risk for bleeding and his joints are damaged from all the bruises. Since he was 10, he's depended on injections of "ridiculously expensive" replacement protein. Lately, his left ankle has been killing him. In April Maurits, an engineering designer, joined a study in which he was dosed with viruses packed with a correct version of the gene that codes for factor IX. Today at the European Hematology Association's meeting in Copenhagen, the Philadelphia company that ran the gene-therapy study, Spark Therapeutics, is presenting results on four patients, him included. In all four, factor IX activity has reached about 30 percent of average. That's enough to prevent bleeding when you get hit by a baseball or twist your ankle. It's also been enough to let Maurits go without factor IX replacements since April. "There's no other explanation than 'It worked,'" says Maurits.
How a Liver-Damaging Drug May Give a Boost to Gene Therapy
June 8, 2016 – 4:50 pm
Researchers who want to treat diseases by ferrying a gene into cells often face the hurdle of safely introducing the DNA into enough of them to make a difference. Now, scientists have come up with a novel way to make gene-modified cells in the liver take over much of that organ: They cripple the unmodified cells. This seemingly risky strategy, which relies on the liver's exceptional regenerative skills, has passed its first test in mice. If equally successful in people, it could be a boon for treating many inherited diseases involving the liver. "This is very much proof of concept. The authors [of the new study] would be first to admit it still has a way to go, but it's a very exciting step in my view," says Ian Alexander of the University of Sydney in Australia, who works on gene therapy for childhood liver diseases. "This is very much proof of concept. The authors [of the new study] would be first to admit it still has a way to go, but it's a very exciting step in my view," says Ian Alexander of the University of Sydney in Australia, who works on gene therapy for childhood liver diseases.
The First Gene Therapy for Children has Just Been Approved in Europe
June 8, 2016 – 4:44 pm
In a landmark moment for scientific research, the world's first gene therapy treatment for children has been given the green light by the European Commission. It's called Strimvelis, and it treats severe combined immunodeficiency (ADA-SCID) – a rare disorder that can be fatal in a very short space of time for those affected. The disease leaves newborns with almost no defence against viruses and bacteria, and is closely linked to X-linked SCID or 'bubble boy' disease, so-called because of a young patient in the US who lived inside a protective plastic shield. What makes the new treatment special is that it's the first time a commercial treatment has used genetic repair techniques to cure a disorder, and thanks to success in clinical trials, it's now approved for marketing within Europe.
The Virus That Could Cure Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and More
May 20, 2016 – 9:52 am
In 2004, the British chemist Chris Dobson speculated that there might be a universal elixir out there that could combat not just alpha-synuclein for Parkinson's but the amyloids caused by many protein-misfolding diseases at once. Remarkably, in that same year an Israeli scientist named Beka Solomon discovered an unlikely candidate for this elixir, a naturally occurring microorganism called a phage. Solomon, a professor at Tel Aviv University, made a serendipitous discovery one day when she was testing a new class of agents against Alzheimer's disease. If it pans out, it might mark the beginning of the end of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and many other neurodegenerative diseases. It's a remarkable story, and the main character isn't Solomon or any other scientist but a humble virus that scientists refer to as M13.
Nanoparticle-Based Gene Therapy May Hold Promise for Patients with Asthma
May 19, 2016 – 2:11 pm
A new study has demonstrated a way to deliver a nanoparticle-based gene therapy, in order to repair lungs damaged by chronic allergic asthma and to reduce inflammation that causes asthma attacks. The potential therapy, tested in mice, may hold promise for asthma patients whose disease is not controlled by the most commonly used treatments. The study was presented at the ATS 2016 International Conference. "We found that a single dose of highly compacted DNA nanoparticle thymulin gene therapy effectively reduces the inflammatory and remodeling process in asthmatic lungs," said lead author Adriana Lopes da Silva, PhD, from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. "This is especially important because some patients do not benefit from long-lasting beta2-agonists and inhaled corticosteroids, which are the most widely used asthma therapies."
HIV Vaccine Design Should Adapt as HIV Mutates
May 17, 2016 – 11:11 am
Human immunodeficiency virus is known to be a highly variable virus that adapts to a person's immune response during the lifetime infection, and a new study published in Nature Medicine shows that viral adaptation in HIV can predict a person's current disease status, as well as the degree to which newly transmitted HIV-1 is adapted to their new host. By using a novel method to measure the extent of adaptation of a virus to a person's cellular immune response, the investigators were able to predict how rapidly the disease will progress in that person. The cellular arm of the immune response, through CD8+ T-cells, eliminates HIV-infected cells. These T-cells are activated by pieces of the virus, peptide epitopes, presented on the human leukocyte antigen proteins on the surface of antigen-presenting cells. HLA is a cell surface protein that is one of the most polymorphic variable parts of the human genome, as unique as each person's DNA.

Mass Casualties In 6.3 Magnitude Quake Near Iranian Nuke Facility
A 6.3 magnitude earthquake has struck near Bushehr, in Iran's southwestern coastal region, killing at least 30 people and injuring nearly 1,000 others. Seven aftershocks were registered within 38 minutes after the initial jolt.
The epicenter was 55 miles southeast of the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant, which is located just 11 miles southeast of the city.
The depth of the quake was 6.2 miles, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
The Bushehr power plant is the country's only nuclear power station and is capable of withstanding quakes stronger than 6.3 magnitude.
"The earthquake in no way affected the normal situation at the reactor. Personnel continue to work in the normal regime and radiation levels are fully within the norm," a design engineer told Russian state news agency RIA Novosti.
One village was wiped out, and mud brick houses crumbled in the earthquake.
"We could clearly feel the earthquake," Nikoo, who requested to be identified only by her first name, told Reuters by telephone. "The windows and chandeliers all shook."
Social media outlets reported feeling the quake in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. There were no immediate reports of damages.
Gulf Arab countries and Western experts have voiced concerns about the Bushehr plant, built in a highly seismic area, but Iran has repeatedly rejected those concerns. Bushehr is home to some 160,000 people.
The US and its allies have repeatedly accused Iran of developing nuclear weapons. Tehran insists its work at Bushehr is for civilian purposes only.Yori Yanover

When London based, British-Israeli singer-songwriter Lail Arad was a child, her father, the acclaimed designer Ron Arad, used to sing her to sleep.
"My dad plays guitar nicely," says Arad sipping mint tea in a cafe behind Oxford street. "And he used to change words to Leonard Cohen songs to be about me and my teddy bears and I was sure he wrote them all."
Gabby Young and Other Animals are having a good summer. In June they played at Glastonbury and are now looking forward to several more festival appearances over the next couple of months.
Their single, We're All In This Together, was picked by Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis for the Storm the Charts competition, which aims to boost the profile and sales of 40 independent artists. Other Animals were the most downloaded band among all the groups chosen.
For Israeli musicians, politics comes with the territory. Except that Asaf Avidan does not see it that way.
"I haven't ever written anything political. I write about what I feel," he insists. "It's like cheating if I sit down to write about an issue. I do listen to a lot of political artists and I wish I could feel as angry as they are so that it pours out into my music."
He adds, defensively: "If I want to go to a protest, I'll go to a protest, but I won't write a song about it."
This has been a fine year for The National. The Brooklyn-based band saw their fifth album, High Violet, peak at number three in the US album charts and number five in the UK. They sold out the Royal Albert Hall, were a hit at the Glastonbury Festival last month and will be playing two nights at the Brixton Academy this autumn. Not bad for a group that spent the first five years of their existence regularly playing to crowds in single figures.
It would probably be easier to list the things that session musician, recording artist and all-round busy bee Lucinda Belle has not done. She has toured with the Pet Shop Boys and Annie Lennox, been Robbie Williams's backing singer and harpist at the BBC Electric Proms, performed a duet with Mel Brooks and jammed with Tom Jones.
This is probably not the ideal moment to be interviewing Matisyahu, unless you enjoy the company of fired-up pop stars. Because it's the Tuesday after the Gaza aid flotilla incident and the Chasidic reggae artist and rapper - staying at the Holiday Inn in Brent Cross as he promotes his latest album, Light - is not happy.
The rangy New Yorker, 31 at the end of June, prowls around his hotel bedroom in kippah and green jogging pants. He places his tallit under his crumpled white T-shirt and sits down on the couch. In between mouthfuls of vegan curry, he assesses the events of the weekend.
Terezin: the name inspires both horror and wonder. This Czech garrison town, also known as Theresienstadt, was home to one of the most extraordinary cultural phenomena of the Second World War. The inmates of its Jewish ghetto included swathes of the intelligentsia of Prague and Brno who were deported there. Confined within its walls, desperately overcrowded, disease-ridden and malnourished, a generation of composers, writers, artists, musicians and actors turned to their art to keep their spirits alive.
The Jewish Community Centre has commissioned three composers, one Jewish, one Muslim and one Christian, to write works to be performed at the Spitalfields Music Summer Festival in London's East End this weekend.
The Radio 3 presenter and world-music fanatic, Max Reinhardt, has taken on the challenge of writing a piece inspired by the area's Jewish history, which he has called Fifth Quarter.
When a shy-looking 15-year-old Janis Ian finished performing her song, Society's Child, on Leonard Bernstein's television show, Inside Pop - The Rock Revolution, in 1967, Bernstein beamed at her with palpable pride. "You're a great creature," he gushed. "I think that's quite a remarkable job for a girl of your age, and I congratulate you on what's going to be a brilliant career."
No one could accuse Jewish music of not being diverse. There is Jewish reggae and hip hop, Jewish folk, even Jewish heavy metal. But despite Judaism's eclectic modern sound, Jewish gospel still feels like an oxymoron.
Not so, says black Jewish gospel singer Joshua Nelson. The impassioned choir music most commonly associated with church singing groups is actually one of the most inherently Jewish sounds around.

Over the past quarter century, La Tour Vieille has built up an impressive reputation, and their most recent releases demonstrate that they are among the elite estates of Roussillon. The late-bottled La Tour Vieille Banyuls Reserva leads with cocoa powder, cardamom, vanilla and caramel, comes to the palate with an unusual combination of candied raspberry, chocolate, and brown spices, and finishes with impressive persistence if less sheer concentration or polish than its vintage counterparts.
Wine Maker Notes
Being midway between fruity & grilled, it affirms characteristic of oxidation: prunes, coffee, Moka. It is a classic accompaniment for desserts of dark chocolate, but also perfect with blue cheeses (Fourme d'Ambert, Bleu d'Auvergne, Roquefort , Gorgonzola or the King of British cheeses – a good Stilton). All flavours 'conspire' to make it sing : dried or grilled fruit, cinnamon, fig, bitter orange, almonds…
Technical Notes
Alcoholic Degree : 16% Volume Varieties : A mixture of Grenache Noirs, Grenache gris & Carignan Vinification : The harvested grapes are initially partly split and then subjected to 'mutage sur grains' Élevage : The wine spends one year in 'bonbonnes' as part of the maturing process before being further aged in oak barrels for 4 to 5 more years. This is an ageing process based on oxidation, which seals the characteristic of each vintage. 'Reserva' is a traditional Banyuls.

LOS ANGELES - Cinema without hard-hitting politics is like pancakes without syrup. Although they may not be the majority of movies being screened at showcases, many festivals feature films of compassion, controversy, consciousness, and conscience, including one of the nation's top filmfests, the Los Angeles Film Festival, held here June 13-23. LAFF's roster of 200 films features 25 or so decidedly left-leaning entries listed in the program guide as "Social Awareness" productions.
American Revolutionary: The Evolution of Grace Lee Boggs is not only listed under that heading but is also one of a similar number of nonfiction works categorized as "Documentary." This progressive picture is about the Chinese-American woman whom Angela Davis declares onscreen to have "made more of a contribution to black people than most blacks." The former Weatherman Bill Ayers also lauds the longtime Detroit-based activist, who is identified in the doc as "a Marxist theoretician" and "black power" advocate.
"Revolutionary" is engagingly, wittily directed by Grace Lee. No relation to her doc's subject, Lee first stumbled upon Boggs a decade ago while making another nonfiction film, 2005's The Grace Lee Project, about various women named Grace Lee, in order to debunk stereotypes of Asian females. The UCLA Film School grad had no idea what she was getting into 10 years ago. Revolutionary is a solo look at what I'd imagine is the most singular of her previous doc's various subjects, the dogged if not dogmatic, indefatigable Boggs. Lee appears onscreen in Revolutionary, but the focus remains fixed on Boggs. Lee has a good film sense and her techniques run the gamut, from naturalistic talking heads footage (including of Bill Moyers, Ruby Dee, Ossie Davis, and Danny Glover) to the imaginatively cinematic. For example, in sharp contrast to most longwinded left-wing intellectuals, Lee humorously sums up Hegel and Marx in 30-second montages, and creatively uses reverse motion historical news clips to represent going back in time for this biopic about Boggs.
As Boggs' life has spanned almost a century, plenty of American history is chronicled in this Detroit-centered doc. During the 1940s Boggs wed African American radical James Boggs and they set up shop, so to speak, in that hub of the industrial proletariat, "Motor Town." The Boggses were champions of the rabblerousing Malcolm X, and when the rabble roused - the 1967 Detroit riot, or "uprising" - it's covered at length in this film.
The effervescent 97-year-old Boggs has evolved in her thinking and may have renounced violence as a means of attaining revolutionary ends. Grace Lee Boggs attended the festival screenings in her wheelchair, took part in Q&As with Lee, and appeared on Tavis Smiley's PBS talk show on June 21. An inspiration on- and off-screen, this radical icon remains full of grace: Bogged down she's not, as she remains ready for the revolution, whatever form it may take. Watch for local release.

U.S. Open a treat for fans, torture for players
The quote is ancient now and its author long since deceased. You might not even be familiar with Bobby Locke, though he is a Hall of Famer.
When told Ben Hogan had shot a 67 on the final day of the 1951 U.S. Open, old Bobby responded, "Did he play every hole?"
Six decades later, Locke's question still titillates as much as it resonates.
And that's why we love – absolutely love to the third power, and we're not talking Davis Love III here – the U.S. Open, the sadistic, malicious, fiendish U.S. Open, a tournament so devilishly contrived that the 18th green should include a windmill.
Or maybe a triage area. Because, by the final hole, some of the finest golf games on the planet traditionally are hemorrhaging more than just strokes.
We love the U.S. Open because it's the only time we can identify with players like Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and Luke Donald, players who put their pants on one leg at a time, yes, but once dressed, could hit an 8-iron over Bear Mountain.
The U.S. Open is the one time Woods, McIlroy and Donald play a game that remotely resembles the one we play. Or is it the game that plays us?
Listen, we know that Hunter Mahan can execute ridiculously difficult shots around the green to salvage par.
It's just nice to know that Mahan also can botch a chip so badly he appeared to hit the shot from atop the salad bar at Sizzler. Then he can disintegrate on the green, too, like he did on No. 6 Friday, en route to a triple-bogey.
We're not saying we take delight in the misfortune of others. It's more like a kinship, a bonding forged in experiencing the diabolical nature of this sport.
If the best players alive can muck it up, why shouldn't we yuck it up? We've earned that much, through a lifetime of snap hooks and quadruple-bogeys of our own.
There's a popular theory that golf fans desire to see only birdies and eagles and scores that sound like the average New Year's Eve temperature in Saskatoon – minus-20.
We say that theory is as silly as someone shouting "Get in the hole!" every freaking time a PGA Tour player makes freaking contact with his freaking Titleist. People, screaming "Get in the hole!" was clever one time, the first time. Every subsequent shouting only exposes golf fans as having the IQ of a divot.
We also say that there are 51 weeks in the year for these guys to chase a magic 59. Give us U.S. Open week and the possibility of someone shooting a tragic 95.
Bubba Watson is the reigning Masters champion. There are only four golfers ahead of him in the world rankings. He began his U.S. Open on Thursday with a stunning 78 and an equally stunning confession.
"That golf course is too tough for me," he admitted, quite seriously, and recall the absurd banana ball he hit from an Augusta forest to win in April. "This course is just not good for me. It's a lot better than I am."
Then he rolled himself into a ball and wept. OK, Watson didn't actually roll himself into a ball. But there is a chance he, at some point, wept over his performance at The Olympic Club, a place where they've redefined the Olympic motto.
Up in San Francisco, it's Swifter (the greens), Higher (the rough), Stronger (the urge to vomit while standing over a 3-foot slider for par).
McIlroy, who, as defending champion, knows a little bit about the U.S. Open, was 10-over after two rounds and said, "To be honest, overall, I don't feel like I played that badly for the last two days."
As for the final two days, Rory didn't have to worry. He already was as done as the Stanley Cup finals.
Donald, only the No. 1 player in the world entering this event, also missed the cut, comfortably. He lost 11 shots to par by the time Olympic had spit him out and actually admitted, "I feel like I was as prepared as I'll ever be."
At least he fared better than Ray Ainsley, who, at the 1938 Open, set a record by shooting a 19 on a par-4. Historical accounts note that Ray's ball sunk to the bottom of a creek and, well, let's just say that, once in the water, he wasn't exactly Michael Phelps.
Not sure about you, but we're going to enjoy Sunday's final round from The Olympic Club, where par is 70 and 70 might be impossible.
Tiger, welcome to our world, where the only thing guaranteed to be below par isn't the score but rather the performance.

TAVARES, Fla - Authorities say a boating accident at a regatta in central Florida has left one racer dead.
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission spokeswoman Joy Hill tells the Orlando Sentinel that a man and a woman were ejected from their vessel Saturday morning while participating in one of the races during the Classic Race Boat regatta on Lake Dora in Tavares.
Hill said the woman was rescued in the water, but the man was struck and killed by another boat. The man's name was not released.
Tavares city spokeswoman Joyce Ross told the Orlando Sentinel the accident happened during an annual hydroplane racing event featuring high-speed and low-weight boats.
The rest of Saturday's races were suspended.
The regatta typically attracts 8,000 to 10,000 spectators, vendors and participants.

It can be difficult to find no credit car financing in Pittsburgh. When you do find a deal, it's usually on a low quality car at a high rate. But, that's not always the case.

We believe everyone deserves a chance to build – or rebuild – credit and are proud to back up that belief with genuine offers.

When purchasing a used car with DriveTime, you have the benefit of choice. You have choice when it comes to quality, type, and financing.

Millville High School's baseball field will soon be named after its most famous former player: 2009 graduate and 2012 American League rookie of the year Mike Trout.
Millville baseball coach Roy Hallenbeck said Wednesday that the Millville Board of Education on Monday night approved a sponsorship deal that will include a $10,000 donation to the school for improvements to the field in conjunction with naming the facility after Trout.
Hallenbeck said that officials hope to hold a naming ceremony later this spring but that the date and other details still were being finalized.
Trout, a star outfielder for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, already has donated a $20,000 award from winning the Player's Choice Rookie of the Year honors to Millville to refurbish its baseball field. That work, which includes the laying of new sod, has begun, Hallenbeck said.


text: The short version is that Inuyasha is the story of the characters Inuyasha-a half demon, and Kagome-a school girl, and their quest to fill 150+ episodes with entertaining stuff to watch through a variety of plot devices. Okay, okay It's the story of Inuyasha, Kagome, and a gigantic cast of supporting characters and their quest to retrieve the pieces of the shattered Shikon Jewel and ultimately defeat the series' ubervillian Naraku. Short of writing a thousand-foot long summary, that's as indepth as I'll delve into the plot of Inuyasha here.
