Tomopop LinkUP: Mass naked figure event
Feb 06
// Jeremy Emerje Crocker
Kotobukiya has posted a gallery for their latest Shining figure, Neris, on their blog. She's a great looking figure and available now for pre-order so go find yourself one. Orchid seed isn't only offering their special chrome bikini version of Sonico at Wonder Festival that we talked about last week. They've also got a special clear A5 file of the Sorceress from Dragons Crown, Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt trading cards, and Seven Deadly Sins bath salts. Vertex will be offering this very special and very limited version of Noel Vermillion at Wonder Festival. The yellow repaint is limited to only 50 and sold at 8,800 each, the same prices as the regular version. Grizzry Panda will be showing off their latest garage kit, Kongou from Kantai Collection at Wonder Festival. It doesn't seem like she'll be up for sale, but they will be bringing many of their more popular kits from previous events back for sale. RocketNews24 reported on another Licca-chan doll crossover, this time with Kumamoto city mascot Kumamon. She's sporting a cute red and black dress with bear ears and comes with a little Kumamon. The real surprise is that she went up for sale exclusively at Takara Tomy Mall on February 1 and has already sold out. Toy As Object is reporting on this really cool and unconventional Crystal-Mecha by Super7 and artist Matt Allison. It's already been released in black with an orange crystal, it is now available for US$95 in red with a translucent blue crystal stand nine inches at the Super7 store. Hot Toys posted an interview with acclaimed anime director, character designer, and mecha artist Shinji Aramaki. They talk about his latest movie, the 3D CG take on Captain Harlock and the figure HT made for it. AmiAmi blog posted a gallery for Megahouse's G.E.M Series Sasuke Uchiha figure. They did a great job with posing on this figure and he even comes with special head parts so you can swap his eyes between regular, Sharingan, and Mangekyo Sharingan. Also at the same link is the latest Naruto additions to the Petit Chara Land series. The series features Naruto (Kurama Mode with baby Kurama), Sasuke (with Aoda), Orochimaru (with Manda), Hashirama Senju (with, uh, trees), Madara (with hypnotized Kurama) and ANBU Kakashi (with Bull). Cute figures, wouldn't know they were at war. Traditionally Bandai doesn't do Wonder Festival, choosing to handle their own events. That went out the window last year when we got our first look at D-Arts Sailor Moon at Wonder Festival 2013 [Summer]. This year Tamashii Nations will be representing Bandai and bringing along a bunch of their newest figures as well as some we've never seen before. We should be getting our first look at new figures from Infinite Stratos and Tiger & Bunny plus some others they haven't revealed the source for yet. quesQ will be at Wonder Festival with a number of new limited edition repaints for sale. Up for grabs will be Flandre Scarlet in pink and Kazami Yuuka in blue from Touhou Project, Elizabeth in black and pink from Persona 4: Arena, and Percival in red from Eiyuu Senki Gold. Of course they've got other things planned to debut at the event. The Japanese AmiAmi blog posted a gallery for Prince of Tennis' Shiraishi Kuranosuke from the ARTFX J line by Kotobukiya. Fans of the series will probably find very little to complain about here. Kahotan posted a gallery for Parfom Aigis which includes a very informative interview with Phat! Company's Ootani. There's also a new look Parfom Nozomi Hoshino which acted like the prototype for the series and will make an appearance at Wonder Festival this weekend. Primal Heart updated with a look at their latest Saber garage kit from Fate/EXTRA CCC. The kit features Saber in a tiny nightgown and they really captured her well! Artist Amanda Visell made this really cute 8 inch Wood Jackalope Dunny. It's available for US$400 at the Switcheroo shop. I thought the jack in jackalope stood for jackrabbit, but I guess it stands for lumberjack. [embed]33525:37254:0[/embed] Universes collide when Filmation Skeletor voice actor Alan Oppenheimer and 200X Skeletor voice Brian Dobson come together to play with Skeletor figures for this promo video for Power-Con. Man, Alan can still do the voice perfectly! Aniplex is working on another Homura figure for Puella Magi Madoka Magica. Like most things these days this one is movie based and the figure title translates to something like Flame Time Regression ver. Should be really nice when it gets a limited release in September on at the Aniplex+ store. Need another reason to get Attack on Titan figma Armin this weekend? Try Akiba Hobby's advance gallery out and see if that convinces you. [embed]33525:37255:0[/embed] Friends of Tomopop Jesse DeStasio, Nicholas Fung, and Cade Hiser have joined forces to host a new weekly toy show on YouTube called ToyPizza. Every Tuesday they'll be talking about great toys for all ages past and present, doing outings, and just talking about the stuff we all love. The first vid is just over four minutes long so it's easy to jump in and watch. What have you got to lose? And that's it for this week. Not sure what we'll have to talk about next week with Wonder Festival over, but I'll be back again nextweek with another Tomopop LinkUP nonetheless!
We're in the final days before Wonder Festival 2014 [Winter]!
Hello and welcome back to a very busy Tomopop LinkUP! I suppose that title is worthy of a little explanation. You see, back in the heyday of anime fansubs there was a number of speed subbers that were notorious for their nons...

Show and Tell: Brian's NYCC swag
Jan 27
// Brian Szabelski
Oh my, what's this? It's the Moon Jumper Wet Suit Maria figure from ESC-Toy! She's the same as the regular Wet Suit Maria, but with a spacesuit-themed color to her. Well, I like space, so I had to have her! The only bad thing about Maria is ... well, she doesn't quite stand up on her own without wobbling or falling over. Still, nothing I can't fix when I finally put her up for display! I love how with just changing the color palette on Wet Suit Maria, Erick has been able to make her outfit look more like a spacesuit than a frog suit. You can still see the frog design, but it's not quite as obvious at first. It's the I Think You're Soopa plush collab with Steff Bomb! Based on Erick's earlier Soopa Coin-Up Bros. figure, this one is a little arcade machine with tiny little legs, just looking for a good place to sit and someone to play its game. The craftsmanship on the plush is actually quite superb; sure, the felt feet do kind of easily get twisted about being thin, but it sits without a problem, and there aren't any visible seams or loose threads hanging off it. Pinned to the body was a little Steff Bomb tag, which can easily be removed and put back on without damaging the plush itself. The back was signed by Steff Bomb and numbered. As you can see, only 15 were made and I have number 8. Joy! Of course, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to add another Foster to my collection from Super7! The little cookie who likes to eat himself is one of my favorite designs, and his oatmeal vanilla edition was at NYCC. Chocolate Foster is so happy to have a new friend! Finally, there's ... ummmm, excuse me? Sleepy fellow? Could you wake up? Ah well, looks like he's out cold. In any case, this is Koguma Kazuhiro, originally designed by Tokyoplastic and myplasticheart's MPH Labs. This special Kazuhiro edition has a design from kaNO on it that's somewhat samurai-inspired, so I figured picking it up would do me no harm. Plus, I've always kind of liked the bigger Koguma figures and this fits a bit better on my shelf. If you'd still like to check him out, he's available at myplasticheart for US$17.99! That wraps up my NYCC haul for this year. Not a whole lot, but it's stuff I'm all satisfied with. There's actually one more thing on the way that's late in getting here (an Amanda Conner sketch), but I figure this ought to keep me happy for a while. ... Well, until C2E2 and San Diego Comic Con.
This year's New York Comic Con had a ton of great exclusives hidden among its booths. Jackie, Pedro and Kris all showed you what they got from this year's event, but I haven't had the chance to get my stuff together until now...

Lakehead Thunderwolves
|Lakehead Thunderwolves
|Lakehead University
|U Sports
|Ontario University Athletics
|Athletic director
|Tom Warden
|Thunder Bay, Ontario
|Fort William Gardens
|C.J. Sanders Fieldhouse
The Lakehead Thunderwolves are the varsity athletic teams that represent Lakehead University in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada in Canadian Interuniversity Sport. Varsity teams include men's hockey, men's and women's track, women's volleyball, men's and women's basketball, Nordic skiing, cross country running and men's and women's wrestling.
Sports activities[edit]
The Lakehead Thunderwolves are perennial powers in the OUA and CIS in Nordic Skiing and wrestling.[1] The women's and men's Nordic ski teams won both the OUA conference and CIS-CCUNC national team championships in both 2005 and 2006. The women's and men's team four-peated for the OUA Championships in 2008 while the women won their fifth consecutive CIS-CCUNC national championship. The men's wrestling team is ranked in the CIS Top 10 each year and the women's team is ranked in the North American Top 15. As of 2012, the women have continued their string of dominant performances, having now accomplished the 8-peat for CCUNC championships.
Their men's hockey program, started in 2001-02, annually leads the CIS in attendance with minor pro attendance numbers (3000 per game) and has become one of the better programs in CIS men's hockey.[citation needed] The team won the OUA Queen's Cup conference championship in 2005-06, defeating the McGill Redmen in the one-game final, and subsequently placed second at the CIS National Championships in Edmonton, Alberta. In each of its seven seasons, the hockey team has won at least one playoff round and has gone 14-2 on home ice in the playoffs. The Thunderwolves have qualified for the CIS National Championship twice in seven seasons of play. They hosted the CIS National Championships in 2009 and 2010. It has an intense, and at times brutally violent, rivalry with the University of Western Ontario Mustangs.
Men's and women's basketball, women's volleyball, track, and cross country have had varying degrees of success, and most of these programs have shown improvement over the past couple seasons.[citation needed]
The alpine skiing team (a club sport) competes as one of a small handful of Canadian schools in the United States Collegiate Ski and Snowboard Association (USCSA), including University of British Columbia and a few others.
Lakehead broadcasts many games with live video webcasts which can be accessed off Lakehead's two athletic sites. All sports are broadcast except Nordic skiing. Basketball is carried live on campus radio station CILU-FM and webcast on SSN Canada.[2] Men's away hockey games used to be carried by commercial station Rock94, but just recently the station discontinued this service.

Orlando Bloom & Flynn Take Their Pooch to the Park
Proving he can pull double duty, Orlando Bloom was spotted on a hike in Hollywood's Running Canyon Park with his adorable son Flynn and black Lab Sidi on Thursday (April 5).
With his 15-month-old cutie strapped firmly to his chest and his furry companion near his side, the casually-dressed "Pirates of the Caribbean" hunk got a little fresh air during the evening stroll.
Baby Flynn seems to be following in his famous parent's footsteps, as the too-cute tot just recently made his magazine cover debut.
Featured on the front of WHO, the super-smiley little one sat on the lap of mom Miranda Kerr. The VS stunner was named 2012's Most Beautiful Person by the publication.
Enjoy the pictures of Orlando Bloom taking Flynn and his dog hiking at Running Canyon Park in Hollywood (April 5).

Innovation + Inspiration = Visible Change
Everyday technology is being developed that could solve many of the world's challenges to preserve our natural resources. We have irrigation techniques that can bring food to the poorest, electric cars to reduce our dependence on oil and water reservoirs to turn sewage and seawater into usable water.
Many of these groundbreaking solutions already exist and are improving the quality of life for all of Israel's residents. At the Summit we will highlight these Israeli innovations and other premiere global initiatives being put to use worldwide. Our goal is to bring together leaders, creators, and visionaries to discuss how we can move sustainability forward.
We need to scale these technologies so they become widespread and cost-effective. For this to happen, we must join in conversation and be proactive. The Summit will be a launching pad for a discussion on how these solutions can be implemented globally.
Who will be there?
Conscientious young world citizens, global influencers, celebrities, entrepreneurs, scientists and visionaries.
About JNF
Jewish National Fund works closely with pioneers in innovation and suitability. A UN NGO, over the last 110 years, JNF has helped Israel become the leader it is today, by investing in the country's first commercial solar field, planting 250 million trees and funding technology to help reuse 80% of Israel's water resources, compared to less than 10% here at home in the U.S.
Why participate as a sponsor?
The Summit provides a unique showcase for sponsors to connect with a generation actively seeking new thinking on old problems.

THE music you make, Lisa Gerrard says, is not a matter of choice. Particularly if you are Australian.
Gerrard, one half of the band Dead Can Dance, has devoted her life to music since she was a child growing up in Prahran, surrounded by an international menagerie of cultures and their exotic sounds.
With such broad influences from which to draw, including that of indigenous Australians, comes great responsibility, she says.
''It's a huge responsibility as an artist to be Australian,'' she says in her floaty, singsong voice. ''It's massive, because we're drawing on all these influences in order to solidify them into a place that can be understood in the abstract by all … it's huge, it all has to be taken into consideration. Oh my god!''
But not all artists would choose to take on all those influences and responsibility. She is incredulous at the suggestion. ''How do you … you don't choose,'' she exclaims. ''It's not something you choose. Once you open yourself up to those frequencies from those things that come up through the ground, you don't have a choice. Being an artist is not about having choices, it's about being able to switch on the frequency. And the frequency in this country is extremely complicated and very loud.''
Gerrard is truly one of music's unique thinkers, and it was this perspective she brought to Dead Can Dance, the band she founded in 1981 in Melbourne with fellow musician and singer Brendan Perry. Distinctive for their majestic blend of neo-classical, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean sounds, in turns mournful and uplifting, Gerrard and Perry relocated to London shortly after forming DCD. Releasing their self-titled debut album in 1984, another six albums followed before the pair split after 1996's Spiritchaser.
Gerrard has pursued a successful solo career, releasing her own music and working on film scores, often with Hollywood composer Hans Zimmer (their Gladiator soundtrack earned Gerrard a Golden Globe in 2000).
Gerrard, 51, last performed in Melbourne in 2007 to a sold-out Forum Theatre, for her solo album The Silver Tree. That was the first time she had performed in her home town for 25 years.
But now, she and Perry have reunited for the first Dead Can Dance album in 16 years, Anastasis, and their first world tour since 2005.
While that tour did not visit Australia, the current one will. Today, tour dates were announced for Australia that will see them conclude their tour here in February.
Speaking to Gerrard from her Gippsland home ahead of the tour, she is looking forward to working on stage with Perry again. ''It's going to be amazing,'' she says. ''It's such a good time to go out on the road because, you know, morale is a bit down around the world.''
''[What I] like … about the work that we've done is that those people who don't feel like they fit in, in some way, to the rest of the world have got somewhere to go, and so have we,'' she says. ''Because that's the ultimate connection at the end of the day. Through the work you do with music, all you want is someone to pick up the thread and acknowledge it and realise it has value.''
Anastasis was recorded at Perry's home studio in Ireland over seven months, with much of the collaboration happening via computer before Gerrard joined him for the final three months. The new album opens with Children of the Sun, sung by Perry, his lyrics speaking of human evolution and ancient memory carried in genetic code.
Lyrics are solely Perry's domain. Since Gerrard began singing as a young girl (her beautiful operatic voice came naturally), she has created her own vocalisations, to allow intuitive responses ahead of intellectual - a glossolalia.
But at the heart of all DCD music is the human condition and its response to the Earth.
''If you listen to the lyrics, with some of the stuff that Brendan is talking about, we're trying to go past our immediate sort of connections with those things with, I suppose, the new-age or modern thinking,'' she says. ''Distractions that are there before us lead us away from that very singular time when we were able to look inside ourselves and have some sort of measure of understanding of where or who we are.''
Dead Can Dance play the Palais Theatre, St Kilda, on February 6, 2013. Tickets on sale from 9am on October 1 through ticketmaster.com.au. Anastasis is out now through Liberator Music.

President Stephen Jordan today officially announced plans for a state-of-the-art athletic complex that will include baseball, softball and soccer fields and eight tennis courts.
�The complex will provide a new home for Roadrunner athletic events as well as academic programs,� says Jordan. �This will continue the physical transformation underway on our campus and is the kind of facility that our students and student-athletes deserve.�
In addition to varsity athletics, intramural sports and academic programs, the University will host activities on the site for the surrounding community�s youth.
The new athletic complex will be located south of the Colfax Avenue viaduct adjacent to Shoshone Street, east of I-25. The site once held various fuel, food and cold-storage facilities and will require some environmental cleanup as part of the development.
The 12.5-acre complex will be the home of six of the Roadrunners� 15 sports: baseball, softball, men�s and women�s soccer, and men�s and women�s tennis. The three fields will have synthetic turf surfaces.
�We have been talking about this facility for a number of years,� says Joan McDermott, director of athletics. �This will be a first-class facility for our athletic programs and we can�t wait to see the project underway.�
The projected $12 million athletic complex will be built in phases, with elements of phases two and three conditional on the funds available for construction. Phase one will break ground in January and will include eight tennis courts as well as other site work scheduled for completion in April 2013. Phase two is the baseball and soccer fields and phase three includes the softball field and locker rooms. Architectural renderings of the proposed facility are available at GoMetroState.com.
Through a memorandum of agreement in 2011 with the Auraria Higher Education Center, MSU Denver assumed all campus-shared costs for the complex and its facilities, thus retaining full ownership, management oversight and naming rights.
Donors and sponsors can pledge to support the complex by visiting GoMetroState.com and clicking on the facility icon. Anyone interested in more information about the facility or in making a donation is encouraged to contact Associate Director of Development Ran Railey at 303-556-5119 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Can I Use Self Tanner While Doing Fraxel Treatment? Does It Interfere W/ Age Spot Removel?
Self-Tanner w/ Fraxel
Doctor Answers 3
You should not use self tanner on areas where Fraxel has been done
You should not use self tanner on areas where Fraxel has been done. It's better to have no tan and to have as much contrast with the pigment as possible and a lot of self tanners contain chemicals that can irritate the skin.
Learn more: http://www.chelseaeye.com/resurface_cos.htm
Fraxel is not affected adversely by self-tanners
I have not found that tanning or self tanning affects the effect of Fraxel restore. I would not want my patients to get sunexposure after Fraxel or suntan parlor treatment after Fraxel as that may increase the risk fo post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. The darker skin from artificial tanning or true sun tan or sun tan parlor does not create an artificial absorbtpion at the epidermal level similar to V-beam (595nm.) and 532nm neodynium-yag lasers. The Fraxel Restore will penetrate into the dermis despite the artificial tan and provided you don't get true sun exposure on the skin after Fraxel, you'll probably do well. Remember, Fraxel Restore was one of the first accepted lasers to treat melasma.
Fraxel and Self-Tanners
You should not use self-tanners while undergoing Fraxel laser treatments. You should also avoid tanning beds and "natural" tans before treatments. It will definitely interfere with the treatments and increase the risk of an adverse event.

Why Running Might be the Worst Thing to DO
I can't even begin to recall how many threads I've read and or participated in involving real and theoretical situations and one subject people never seen to discuss is the how and why some people would be much better of to automatically engage a threat rather than waste precious seconds trying to escape a deadly shooting .
So here goes a shot at trying to share my thoughts .
First off can you run ? Yes I mean the physical act of running without keeling over having a heart attack .
How many married working people in their 30's beyond have had a reason to break out into and all out dash even for say 50 yards ? It isn't exactly a skill most need for raising the kids , paying the bills even when you take into consideration working all day , not many jobs require it . This is needed even less the older you get .
Then theres the ability to run hunched over so as to present as small a target as you can . How many close to or over age 40 can do this without running the real chance of having their back lock up on them and perhaps go into spasms ?
How fleet are you on your feet ? Suppose you have a nice fairly clear shot "run" at a doorway and the shooter is faced the other way , only one problem you have to make small jumps over the bodies of those already down and or perhaps other small obstacles like say a baby stroller here and there . You jump a body and a foot lands in a puddle of blood , can you keep your balance and keep running without falling on you azz ?
Then there's the ever popular topic of using cover when shots ring out and a madman is 30 ' away perhaps with his back turned to you .
You don't have time to just sashay your azz over to something to hide behind and get comfy you better move your little azz as fast as you can and to many they might instinctively try diving behind something solid .
When's the last time you dove on the ground ? Yes yes I know you use to play football in the mud and even the hard packed ground without pads and for those of us really stupid we even played a game or two in paved parking lots and streets , problem is that was all 20-25+ years ago or more can you still hit the ground that hard and not get the wind knocked out of you ?
Can you still instinctively roll when you hit the ground to prevent injury ?
See I've done all this crap and more , jumped off of a roof or two without a trip to the hospital by hitting the ground rolling , taken hot grounders to the chest and thrown out the batter before he got to first , run the catcher over and knocked the ball loose so I was safe etc. etc. .
Problem is this was all many years and miles and miles ago on my back and knees and I don't delude myself into thinking I'll magically be able to do it all again just because bullets are flying around .
Fact of the matter is when it comes down to a shooting if any these things come into play your age and physical condition and that of your attacker will be taken into consideration . One hardly expects a man to run to prevent having to shoot an attacker or prevent being shot and chance dieing because of a known physical condition .
For all of the younger crowd that thinks running will always be the best plan I suggest you get and stay in tip top condition your entire life and pray your back doesn't get hurt in some freak accident .
I guess it would come down to a choice between trying to run and possibly being shot, or standing like a target and surely getting shot.
In your scenario, if the shooter has his back to you, then he's going to be shot by me! If someone is looking to shoot and takes his eyes off of me if I'm armed, then it's the end of him. No running necessary.
If I'm unarmed and he's close enough and not looking at me, then anything at hand that can be used as a weapon is going to be in my hands. I would hope that other people in the area will think the same thing. If, as some experts have said, that a man within a few feet can rush an armed person and engage before a gun can be brought to bear, then attacking instead of running will probably work. Hopefully, the shooter will be startled enough to see someone actually daring to engage unarmed that one or two seconds will freeze him enough to make my attack successful.
It all depends on the circumstances: who else is around and can an attack be made successfully.
One of the best firearms/traffic stop classes I ever took in my 28 years as an LEO broke the mold of all the classes we were ever taught.
The Basics: MOVE!, DRAW!, SHOOT!
The Course was designed as a live fire course intertwined with something Cops do the most of and get killed the most on - the Traffic Stop. However, after taking this I automatically (without thinking) incorporated it into every aspect of my daily work.
If you're responding to a "man with gun" or robbery call, you expect to encounter an armed suspect, so you're probably drawn and at the ready from the get-go. But make a stop on some soccer mom who's just made an illegal turn or other minor infraction, you're not at your highest threat level.
Not being a medical professional, it was explained to me like this: If you suddenly find yourself taken by surprise with a gun pointed at you, that prospective shooter has got you in his/her sights and is focused on YOU!
Make a quick move while drawing makes that shooter divert their attention from where you were to where you went to. It may be only a second or two, but that short time can be the difference between going home or to the hospital or morgue. Making that move to cover is a plus, but ANY move increases your chances of survival.
Credit this Course to Bob Magnuson, Maple Heights (OH) PD (probably retired by now)

You have just summed up why you should never mess around with an old man. We are accustomed to pain, we CAN'T run, and we WILL fight.
"Back in the day" when I was a wee lad in martial arts training (not "karate" or "mma", but martial arts, that wonderful quest for self-improvement, that lifelong journey to be more), there was a self-defence drill where, first move, instead of handling a percieved threat or launching a counterattack, the defender creates a distraction. Essentially going "Woohoo!" while waving a hand in the air.
Never had a chance to use it, but the style I trained in was very much authentic. Probably the oldest non-"kung fu" style (Shuri-Ryu if anyone is interested).
Personally, I'd run if I had the chance. If someone's fool enough to point a gun in my face, however, he/she'd better hope that not only is the trigger finger faster than my arms, but also that they have better reaction time than me (doubtful on both counts) and that they can follow me as I drop a good half-foot or more while making my move to "disarm".
"Disarm" in this case would likely end with the arm being broken in a few places.
My .02
In the State of Missouri we passed a law few months back that you do not have to go through a bunch of BS if someone breaks into your home, unlike most States we do not have to say (I have a gun ) and I am calling 911, before shooting intruder, you can now just shoot. I always wondered if the intruder lived and the home owner did not announce he had a gun and did not say all that how would it play out in court.
Regardless of what you do, you must have a plan BEFORE you get into that situation. One of the things I was taught (and still seems valid today) is "Do something even if it is wrong". Action beats inaction every time. Just stupidly standing there is a recipe for death. BUT, in the midst of an armed encounter is not the time to fabricate a plan. The plan MUST be worked out beforehand.
Our brains are very much like computers, the fastest responses are pre-programmed. Our brains have cognitive abilities (can problem solve) but these abilities take up a lot of "RAM".
Think of the TERMINATOR in the first movie. He climbed into his little hotel room, kinda shot up and starting to smell bad. The manager of the hotel (probably not smelling alot better) knocked at the door and inquired "Hey buddy, whaddaya got in there, a dead cat?". The Terminator having no ability to work out the problem, refers to a list of pre-programmed responses that are visible in his eyes. He scrolls down to one response that his computer mind chooses as the best response, "Fu@* You, A$$hole!" (With a distinctive Austrian accent) and the manager goes away.
You must have a plan and maybe a backup plan as no plan survives first contact with the enemy. Beyond that you are making a mistake in trying to plan for every continigincy. Hicks Law states that each added option from which you can choose doubles your reaction time. Have a plan. Make it a simple one and put it into action very quickly.
Every year about a third of the officers who are killed in the line of duty die doing NOTHING. Running may not be the best plan but it beats the heck out of no plan.
They would probably sue and (sadly) stand a chance given our current system! One thing to remember is that career criminals are very versed in working the system. As far as running away, I will if I think I can make it to safety, but given a broken vertebrae in my back, much more than a few yards, (or diving and jumping) risks paralysis. I'm pretty much stuck with fighting back. Guess I need the CCW.
Was just reminded of the story of the youngster picking up his girl for a first date. Dad reminded him "I have a 30-06, and backhoe, and 200 acres of land out back. Have her home at 11:00. "
Run, are you kidding?
During my youth, my best time in the 100 yard dash was vastly slower than any primitive weapon, and I mean rock throwing type of weapon. I haven't speeded up any in 53 years, so I carry a gun and practice like crazy drawing from concealment and moving just enough to spoil the other guy's aim. I figure just watching me will probably get the other guy laughing long enough for me to double-tap him.:)

An odd coalition of religious groups, human-rights advocates and prison reformers is pushing the Obama administration to hurry new standards designed to eliminate rape in the nation's prisons — standards that are already two months overdue.
"At this moment, standards to eradicate sexual assault in prisons await your approval," the groups wrote in an Aug. 2 letter to Attorney General Eric Holder. "We urge you to make a priority of completing your review and adopt the standards as swiftly as possible."
Signatories included representatives of organizations as diverse as Focus on the Family, Human Rights Watch, the National Association of Evangelicals and the American Civil Liberties Union.
Delay comes with serious consequences. The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) has estimated that 60,000 prisoners — 5 percent of the adult prison population — are sexually assaulted each year. And the statistics are worse in juvenile facilities, where 12 percent of detained youths reported being victims of sexual assault in the past year, BJS reported recently.
A 2003 law, the bipartisan Prison Rape Elimination Act, was designed to eradicate the problem. But although an expert panel proposed new prison-rape standards 14 months ago after an exhaustive four-year review — and though the Department of Justice (DOJ) was supposed to have finalized the rules in June — the agency has delayed the process indefinitely over concerns that it will cost prisons too much to implement the changes.
"The failure of the administration to act is sending a very strong message," Gene Guerrero, criminal justice analyst at the Open Society Policy Center, told reporters at a press conference in Washington on Tuesday.
Among the proposed changes, the expert panel suggested that prisons isolate vulnerable inmates from more violent offenders; separate genders during inspections and searches; and allow independent inspectors to audit their facilities every few years.
"Even the most rigorous internal monitoring," panel members wrote in their 2009 report, "is no substitute for opening up correctional facilities to outside review."
But Holder told lawmakers in March that pushback from prison officials has left the agency reluctant to institute the reforms.
"When I speak to wardens, when I speak to people who run local jails, when I speak to people who run state facilities, they look at me and they say, 'Eric, how are we supposed to do this?' " Holder told members of a House Appropriations subcommittee. " 'If we are going to segregate people, build new facilities, do training, how are we supposed to do this?' "
Prison reformers argue that the cost concerns are overblown.
"While many corrections leaders strongly support the standards, some officials have exaggerated the cost of implementing these basic measures," the groups wrote to Holder this month.
The cost projections, for instance, tend to ignore the savings the prisons would see if rapes were reduced, the groups note. Healthcare and litigation costs, for example, would be cut if the new standards were installed, the advocates argue.
Additionally, reformers contend, the cost concerns shouldn't outweigh efforts to rein in prison assaults. "Prison officials claim that it will be too expensive to implement [the standards] — too expensive to prevent staff from raping detainees," Lovisa Stannow, executive director of Just Detention International, a prisoner-rights group, noted in the Huffington Post earlier this year.
DOJ spokeswoman Hannah August said Tuesday that officials "are working diligently" to install the guidelines "as soon as possible." The agency is expecting to issue proposed standards in the fall, she said.
For proponents of reform, it can't happen soon enough.
"This is a basic humanitarian issue," said Barrett Duke, a leader of the Southern Baptist Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission.
Prisoners are rightfully being punished for crimes, he added, "but sexual abuse is not supposed to be a part of that."

quaint and pleasant olde worlde pub/hotel in beautiful setting
The friendliness of the staff, the location, the food and the open fires! Noisy on the Friday night. No herb teas! No soap, shampoo in shower.
Friendly, accommodating staff, very good food, lovely village. Very noisy central heating system at 6.30 am!
The food served was to a very high standard and always well presented,the staff couldnt be more helpful and friendly, the rooms were clean and well presented,rather small but adequate for the length of our stay at The Britannia Inn, would certainly return to this superb hotel.
The food in the bar, the excellent CH, the open fires and friendliness of the staff.
The Hotel is in a great location and staff were really friendly and willing to assist. A minor point but a clearer explanation of the dining opportunities at the hotel to be provided to guests when they arrive. It could be cheaper and more convenient to eat in the bar (same menu) than the dining room.
Friendly, helpful, welcoming staff. Real homely atmosphere and wonderful food.
. . Experienced ,along with other guests, the most rude and offensive watiress at breakfast that we have ever come accross.
needs an update
free access to the club needs an uplift, looked old. staff could be a bit more informative, tried to charge us £160 each when it was for 2 rooms. food was awful.
The location There were four couples in our party and only one had a shower in their room, there was nothing mentioned about no showers, just that an on suite was in every room, this should be made more clear, knowing this we would have booked an alternative hotel.
We found the hotel in a very convenient position in Bowness. It also had a very lively bar with a great atmosphere, and a night club if you fancy. We were warned about the noise from the pub and club but never heard anything from our room. Breakfast was lovely. We will definately be visiting again. The room was lovely and airy, but i hate to say it, could have done with being a bit cleaner.
The helpful staff. No
the way we were dealt with the staff.they were rude and unprofessional. one of our rooms smelled of stale fat from the kitchens. on booking were told we had a room with a bath and got one with a shower.
its location no shower in room, got another room but it was next to extractor fan for kitchen so room smelt of chip fat. breakfast poor
location no shower
At least we had a roof over our heads. Even if it was a stags head! The hotel parking was a 200 metres away which very inconvenient as it was raining during our stay. Kettle had limescale and wasntw working. Bed side lamp wasnt working. I tried to call hotel staff but no one was available. The pub should have been closed by 2am and there were a few people making lots of noise near the entrances. Unfortunately my room was above the enterance.
Great location for the station. Good breakfast but I was a little too hung over to do it justice. I booked it but managed to give my friends the room with the 4 poster ;)
In town centre and had parking. Staff was not friendly Facilities wer below standard. No shower gel or soap in bathroom, single glazed, no shower, had only bath.
Good Location, Big bed, Parking. The guy serving breakfast is excellent very helpful, very informative. Expensive, typical Lake District prices.
staff were friendly rooms were shabby, crockery unwashed, didn't appear clean. Had to ask for drink provision in room. staff entered room for personal items during late evening without knocking, using key. Bar was in fact a dining room with no where to have a drink
The food is out of this world, lovely shared bathrooms
very close toamenitiesand shops Didnt really get a very personal welcome. When I complained about window of room letting all of the hallway light in, the lady did not seem interested in my complaint and said I should have turned the communial light off. Was not particularly impressed with the helpfulness of staff, I think B&B's and hotels should offer the highest of customer service.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was served fast and well cooked. Very comfy bed too No shower, toilet not in best condition
Staff were excellent Rooms were tired and needed a refresh and didn't like sharing a toiletQ
nothing the room, the hotel
Good food and excellant service Room decor and furniture rather tired. Good bed

Review Alderson Broaddus College
Attending a smaller school did have its advantages. For example, interaction and feedback between the professor and student was a lot easier. When you attend a small school, you have a chance to build a relationship with your professors and really get your full education experience, versus going to a big university and just being another body in the classroom. Smaller class sizes, in my opinion, allow you to learn more efficiently. On the other hand, this school does not offer many things to do outside of the classroom. It can get extremely boring at times. As long as education is your number one focus, it is okay. Another thing that was not too good is the food. There is not very many options in the town of the university and the food choices on campus are not the greatest.
Pros - AB does offer some generous athletic and academic scholarships. Small class sizes. Has a few brand new buildings and athletic facilities.
Cons - Limited selection of majors. A lot of the dorms are complete crap. Filthy. Run down. Check the bathrooms in the chapel and admin buildings. Seems the university has no money for basic things such as these. School defaulted on large debt in 2015, but this may now be resolved. No new public info on the bond default.

Alderson Broaddus is a beautiful school located in the mountains. The interaction with students is typically a high level considering most students here are athletes, we all know one another or support sporting events. The professors understand that student athletes miss a lot of class so they work well with them one on one.

Supermarkets giants 'mull Safeway bid'
Speculation is growing that supermarket giant Safeway is being eyed up by rivals for takeover.
Analysts have said that takeover rumours, which have circled the City for much of the year, are gaining in credibility.
The company itself would not comment on the latest suggestion that the Asda chain, owned by US group Wal-Mart, was preparing to launch a bid in conjunction with J Sainsbury.
Analysts say a buy-out of Safeway makes sense, but that merger with one of the other UK supermarket giants would raise fears among trade watchdogs of monopoly situations.
Up for grabs
Safeway is the UK's fourth largest supermarket chain and the market leader in Scotland.
The group appointed new chief executive Carlos Criado-Perez in 1999 and embarked on a large-scale recovery programme, aimed at winning back shoppers.
This included refurbishing stores, creating a new hypermarket format, and adding new services such as take-away food, dry cleaners and photo developing.
While this initially boosted sales, analysts say the recovery has now begun to slow and is proving expensive.
Ian McDonald, retail analyst at Numis Securities, told BBC News Online that the group had "done a decent job in turning itself around", but that it was "still struggling to carve itself a niche in the market".
Just talk?
The slowdown in Safeway's growth has prompted suggestions that it would in fact welcome a bid.
One analyst told BBC News Online: "Safeway is up for sale and would be open to a potential deal."
The main difficulty is the Competition Commission, which is keen to avoid a monopoly situation in any particular market and could make it difficult for Asda to gain too much market share.
Hence the most recent suggestion that Asda would split the Safeway portfolio with Sainsbury.
Supermarket split
Asda has a strong presence in the north of the UK but is keen to spread in the south, while the reverse is true for Sainsbury.
Mr McDonald said: "We do know that Wal-Mart are looking", and said the US group had already consulted the competition authorities.
"The important thing would be to find a home for stores where they overlap," he said.
But he added that there would be plenty of "opportunistically interested" buyers for stores which the Competition Commission ruled must be sold.

After 5 hours of search>try>config>fail>clean , I feel lost!
BCM4313 802.11b/g LP-PHY [14e4:4727] chip is picked up by "wl" driver by default. it works well for normal usage, but rfmon/injection is NOT possible with this driver on this chipset.
Possible solution could be using b43 driver module instead, which I tried almost any trick/method on internet for that. b43 successfully loads, but it`s not picking up the chip and so no interface. no result with iwconfig , and no luck with trying aliases.
What I've tried with no success:
-Modifying module blacklists, trying to keep wl from loading
-completely removing wl, and installing b43 revisions.
-based on broadcom & linux kernel docs, broadcom-wl-22.214.171.124 should work, but it does not.
-no success even with broadcom-wl-188.8.131.52
-No success with recompiling broadcom driver from scratch and inserting module.
-No success on trying above tests on a clean Ubuntu Maveric (10.10)
-No success on multiple recent kernel versions
-No success on using pre-compiled ubuntu driverts for installed kernels
-- firmware-b43-lpphy-installer from ubuntu repository seems to be the one, but prior installation it checks the chip version and stop if it`s anything but bcm4312. 4313 is also a LP PHY chip, but is not supported by this package.
**I've another bcm4312 card that works flawlessly in both backtrack and clean Maveric, as it`s picked up by b43 driver, NOT damned wl .
&-} any comments are welcome... !

Stayin' Alive by cody, Sam MitchellJanuary 22nd, 2011 7:59 PM
Welcome to the end times.
We're pleased to have you here, and we hope that this informative lesson will help you now that your life is in constant danger. We've decided that the hierarchy of Very Important Things goes something like this:
1. Gathering food and obtaining water.
2. Finding shelter.
3. Responding to medical emergencies.
4. Obtaining a healthy fear of anyone in your surrounding area.
Today we would like to focus on No. 3, under the assumption that you've already figured out how to find food, water, and shelter. If you hadn't, you very likely wouldn't still be alive and reading this.
Let's begin with something simple (and maybe a little important).
How to stop bleeding.
First of all, you'll want to expose the Large Gaping Wound. We hope that you've made the decision to find a safe place, free of nomadic cannibals or wild dogs, to treat your injured friend. In case you haven't, now would be the time to do so.
Let's expose the large Gaping Wound in your friend's abdomen.
Yes. Lovely. First off, applying direct pressure is important. So you ought to do that. Press firmly on your friend's Gaping Wound in order to stop the bleeding.
One way to both decrease your friend's horrendously large chance of infection (you are running for your lives, aren't you?) and help stop the bleeding is to reach into your pocket and take out the conveniently located sterile gauze pad you've been keeping just for this sort of occasion.
Place it over the large Gaping Wound and press down firmly.
On the off chance that you're missing your sterile gauze pad or the bleeding refuses to stop, duct tape is a nice way to tamponade and contain the hemorrhage.
If your friend has managed to eviscerate himself in the process of obtaining the Gaping Wound, there's a slightly different set of instructions involving saran wrap and a large amount of duct tape, but that will be covered in next week's survival guide.
Now for section two.
Setting a broken leg.
Obviously your friend is a little upset right now. You've just narrowly escaped the nomadic cannibals, who move at an alarmingly fast rate. He tripped over a root while running (something he's done a thousand times without any previous harm). He's in pain, and he's not happy. After you've managed to get him somewhere safe, whether by him limping along like the invalid he now is or by dragging his useless carcass, you have some important steps to follow.
Let's have a look at your very unhappy friend.
See how his leg is twisted all funny?
You get one (1) chance to straighten it out. That's it. If it doesn't work, you'll just have to splint it bent like it already is. If your friend's pedal pulse (taken at the top of the foot) disappears after you straighten his leg, you need to stop unbending it. Something has gone wrong, and it's best that you leave it as is.
But on the off chance that nothing goes wrong, after you've straightened it you can stabilize his ankle by applying just a little bit of traction (by pulling just a little bit). If not, instructions will follow on how to make a splint. Or, if you're very lucky and your comrades haven't turned on you and tried to steal your food/ammunition, you can have one of them apply manual traction while you prepare the splint.
Now is the time to pull out your fancy vacuum splint or the convenient broken boards you've been hauling around since this whole apocalypse thing started. In case you don't have either of those things (which we suppose is understandable), you can make a splint out of tree branches, rolled up newspaper, sturdy clothes, or anything that doesn't like to bend.
We've decided to demonstrate with rolled up jackets and the assumption that your friend fractured his lower leg, probably the tibia. We sincerely hope you've got a good stockpile of these jackets on hand, because the oncoming nuclear winter isn't going to be particularly forgiving.
Roll up two jackets and place them on either side of the injured leg.
If you're using rope or string to secure the splint, slide it under the leg and tie it above and below the injured site. If you're using duct tape, do the same thing but be sure that you'll be able to remove it fairly quickly if necessary.
Success! Your friend certainly won't be able to walk for awhile, but he'll feel a little bit better once he's all splinted up.
In either of these situations, the best thing to do would be receive actual medical attention. These instructions have been given under the assumption that the hospitals and EMT services have already been knocked out and you're absolutely desperate for medical advice.
These instructions are in no way definitive, and we've taken them from an old emergency medicine textbook we had before our fallout shelter was destroyed. We've learned from experience that duct tape (occasionally) works better than gauze pads. We've heard that sugar will help stop bleeding, but we don't really recommend it for that large Gaping Wound. Use it instead when you've got a smaller cut and you're all out of bandages.
Be on the lookout for our next weekly installment.
Good luck and godspeed.

I had cruised earlier in the decade on the R2 and was acquainted with the smaller ship...actually little had changed from that ship to the Journey. Previously, the R2 was my favorite ship and so I was curious to see what Azamara could do to improve on it.
My reaction, from check-in to departure, was totally positive! From the moment we embarked the crew extended itself with outstanding service. The dining was superb, albeit a bit longer in the main dining room than might have been necessary. If one wants to spend a lot of time in the dining room, then I would recommend sitting at the tables for eight. I found the service much more efficient at smaller table arrangements. But, what the heck. Where does one have to go in a hurry anyway?
The quality of the food throughout the ship was top-notch. I am not normally impressed by the buffet room (Breeza), but the Journey delivered marvelously with broad and varied selection as well as little specials like fresh juices squeezed while you wait. Never disappointed. Main dining room (Discoveries) menus provided great variety throughout the cruise and my selections always tasted great. The specialty restaurants seemed to have less consistency in quality and service than the main room. Food was well prepared, but I didn't feel that it was much better than the fare in the main dining room. Actually, I had a better prime rib in the main room than I did in Prime C which is the ship's 'steak house'. Aqualina with its Mediterranean menu was a treat particularly with its choice of lobster.
Cabin service was excellent with Julio our butler and his assistant always available. We didn't want for anything. On one occasion, we returned from dinner to find our cabin TV was not working. Within ten minutes, after a call to Julio, a technician was in our stateroom and the TV was fixed. Amenities above standard.
The activities aboard were plentiful and varied. Evening entertainment, for a smaller ship, was excellent. One could say that the entertainers were more like a Vegas lounge act than the main room in a Vegas hotel. I was surprised by the caliber of talent particularly a concert pianist who performed twice.
Was I happy I took the 16 day crossing? Yes. Was I satisfied with the service from

Substance and seeking out the real in everything we do as a people is something that should be valued in this day and age. While mainstream media is pushing shock value and short-attention spanned entertainment, I decided to shed light on various subjects that should include going deeper than the surface.
V e r s e 1
Mister lead the girls on in the house, just to get shit twisted
Wonder why these girls always get vindictive
But, my palm's been itchin' so sonny cool, sonny smooth, minus the dummy moves
There's a lot of things brewing in the pot, your waste small, your ass fat but,
Show me what you got
Not just, just features, in your mind, body and soul...dig deeper
'Cause you ain't no Amber Rose and I ain't Wiz Khalifa
And that ain't no diss either, it's gon' take a lot more than that for you to be a keeper
Till death do us part grim reaper
None of my women naked on the internet, what's your mindset, your story
Please don't bore me, 'Cause I'ma need more than an erection
Baby, I'm trying to learn lessons
Elevate this nigga mind on the m-i-c, or is your heart as cold as December
Can you hook up the stove and whip up the dinner
If you know how I stroll then, you should be a winner
V e r s e 2
But other than that, all is well, all is well
It's been a minute since ya nigga had bars to sell
Even though, it's hard to tell, I took a minute to talk with self
Like how I really felt, how I really feel, 'bout niggas who stab backs
And, chicks who only ride when gettin' the cash stack...
And that homie who's down when something's in it for them
I'm not the who goes through shit again and again, it takes me one time For me to dip in the wind
Don't blow my... high, my vibe, my zone, my zone, my vibe
All my ways and my words is bonafide
The cream of the crop, even though you don't see me a lot, believe it or not...this is nothing
I mean everything I say, no bluffin', everything is on the rise like buns in the oven
She said he's kind of boogey, must be a joke, I was the same way when I was dead broke
Mad faith and a pocket full of hope, my people came here in chains and... on a fuckin' boat
So when you talk that stay humble shit, that's when I get ghost, never Play close to niggas doing the most
Man, these niggas is jokes, you want attention, I want to keep it real
I guess anything for you to try to get a meal, if niggas ain't know the deal Then, now they know the deal
What the fuck is going on for real?"

The Council of European Bishops' Conferences, which represents the 33 bishops' conferences on the continent, has said it welcomes Jorge Mario Bergoglio's election as Pope Francis with "immense joy" and feels a "pressing need" for the promotion of unity among Christians, especially on environmental issues.
Francis is the first non-European pope in 1,200 years and the first pope from the southern hemisphere.
The comments from the European bishops' council were made in a letter sent to the new pontiff Thursday. The letter is signed by the council's leadership, including Esztergom-Budapest Cardinal Péter Erdő, who was cited in some speculation as a potential competitor for the papacy following Pope Benedict XVI's resignation.
Following is the full letter.
Holy Father,
We welcome the news of your election as successor of Saint Peter with immense joy.
The European bishops see in your election a sign of hope and encouragement, a stimulus for us not to be concerned just about the specific problems of the Old Continent, but to measure the tasks of the Churches entrusted to our pastoral care in the perspective of the universal Church.
In the light of the vocation of the whole Church, we are thus able to see more concretely our roles, too, dictated, for example, by a specific form of secularisation present in public structures, as well as in daily life; tasks which equally emerge from the demographic and migratory situation, which constitutes a challenge for families and invites us to practical dialogue with Islam and Judaism.
Besides the continual urgency to proclaim the Lord Jesus, in our continent we feel the pressing need to promote the unity of Christians, particularly collaboration over moral issues and social doctrine, in safeguarding creation and global responsibility for the environment with the continent's Orthodox Churches.
The variety of languages and national cultures in Europe underlines our commitment to reconciliation among peoples, and the need for pastoral collaboration for the new evangelisation.
We implore the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary for the pontificate of Your Holiness and we support your apostolic ministry with our prayers.
With filial devotion,
Card. Péter Erdő, Archbishop of Esztergom-Budapest and CCEE President
Card. Angelo Bagnasco, Archbishop of Genoa, CCEE Vice-president
Archbishop Józef Michalik of Przemyśl, CCEE Vice-president
Msgr. Duarte da Cunha, CCEE General Secretary

Flushing, NY (Jun. 23)
The Maccabi Tel Aviv basketball team, fresh from its European Cup Club championship victory, defeated the United States Maccabiah team, 91 to 83 in an exhibition match here at Queens College last night. Maccabi Tel Aviv was led by Aulcie Perry, who scored 29 points, and Lou Silver, who scored 20. Perry is a veteran of the American Basketball Association and the National Basketball Association; Silver is a graduate of Harvard University.
The U.S. Maccabiah Team, which had just three practices under head coach Sam Stern before the match, was led by Hal Cohen's game-high 31 points, Dan Schayes' 16 points and Willie Sims' 12 points and seven assists. The U.S. team led through most of the game and held a 79-76 lead with about five minutes remaining. Maccabi Tel Aviv went on a 15-4 spurt, however, to close out the game.
"It was a close game all the way and I think we could have won with more practice and with our full contingent of players," said Maccabiah's Schayes, a graduate of Syracuse who recently was drafted in the first round by the NBA's Utah Jazz. A National Collegiate Athletic Association ruling prevented the U.S. Maccabiah Team from using any undergraduate players, thus blocking the participation of such talents as Alan Dolinsky and Adam Cohen who will accompany the team when it leaves for Israel to compete in the 11th Maccabiah as the defending champions.
Hal Cohen, a graduate of Syracuse who now attends medical school there, shot 14 to 21 from the floor and added five assists to his game-leading points. Sims, an alumnus of Louisiana State University who was drafted by the NBA's Denver Nuggets, shot just five for 20 but created numerous scoring opportunities with his crisp passing.
Perry had a game-high 12 rebounds for Tel Aviv while Silver and Howard Lasoff chipped in with nine rebounds each. Shuki Schwartz also aided the team's effort with 16 points. Maccabi Tel Aviv next heads for Brazil to compete in the World Cup Club Championships. The U.S. Maccabiah Team leaves for Israel on July 3. The 11th Maccabiah runs from July 6 through July 16.
