Wheezy-grip is not getting regular updates currently, even though I have been able to do a single set of ~4,000 updates recently. The integration into Debian meant that the old scripts had to be rewritten and there probably isn't time now to get that in place for the freeze. Wheezy-grip (Emdebian Grip 3.0) will be a "best effort" release, depending on how much time I can allocate between now and the end of the Debian Wheezy release. I need a stable release based on wheezy-grip as much as anyone else, if not more, so it's not as if this has been overlooked. Unstable-grip has been improving steadily over the last 4 months. Automated dependency checking should fix most issues but, being unstable, breakage is quite likely, depending on how your package selection fits in with coordinated and uncoordinated library transitions in Debian. The problem is that testing migration rules are *HARD* to duplicate and it isn't possible to just create wheezy-grip in isolation. Packages must migrate, updates need to be identified, removed packages need to be identified and handled. There are already 800 RC bugs in Debian and those bugs don't stop coming just because the freeze starts. We take 10% of those packages but that amounts to several hundred updates. > Is it possible to build Emdebian rootfs with mutlistrap for the testing > branch? No, not yet. Several hundred dependencies are missing. apt-grip can be used to create a secondary repository containing just the packages you need from Wheezy - include the converted packages into a local repo using reprepro but that is only for a single architecture and only gives you a snapshot of wheezy at the time you downloaded stuff. Until the freeze kicks in, the number of panicky maintainers cramming their "urgent" fixes into Wheezy means that it will be unlikely that wheezy-grip will be able to catch up and then once the freeze starts, the work of bringing wheezy-grip into line with wheezy via wheezy-proposed-updates just gets more complex. In some ways, it may be easier to not push too much into wheezy-grip until Wheezy is released as then it is a sitting target, not a moving one. So I'll do what I can for wheezy-grip 3.0 (based on Wheezy 7.0) but if you want a truly stable Emdebian Grip package set using Wheezy, it's likely that 3.0.1 (based on Wheezy 7.0.1) is more realistic. This is how I expect to be using wheezy-grip as stable, 3.0.1 or even 3.0.2. My objective with any stable release is to minimise broken dependencies in the release itself. If that means that some packages in 3.0 are behind the equivalent in Wheezy 7.0, then those are precisely the updates which will have to wait for 3.0.1. We've had to do this before for Lenny and Squeeze, it's not a new problem. It's not a nice problem but we'll do what can be done. Dependency resolution will be the primary tool to picking which packages need updates prior to the release. Updates in leaf packages or updates which do not have strict reverse dependencies will just have to wait. This also means that the chances of getting *new* packages into the set for wheezy-grip are slight. I will still add new packages to the set in unstable-grip - people just need to ask - but I'm not going to make the dependency resolution of wheezy-grip any harder by adding new chains or new links to existing chains. I'm expecting to do a few more mass-migrations / mass-removals before the freeze but then it will be a case of carefully picking the packages which fix the highest number of dependency problems. (Removals can be just as useful in fixing dependency problems, don't forget.) There's no key functionality likely to be removed for wheezy-grip which was in squeeze - unless the packages themselves get removed from Debian for whatever reason. I expect wheezy-grip to have a few more packages than Squeeze but not much more than 3,000 per architecture. If you're miffed by this (and you probably should be), then it's high time to help and get involved at the Debian end. If you want better Emdebian stable releases in the future, if you want to have an Emdebian testing suite once Wheezy is released, you need to get involved in Debian *now*, speak up for Emdebian, show that you're willing to put in the time and fix stuff in Debian and get more Debian people thinking that Emdebian is a helpful, positive, resourceful bunch of people who deserve a bit more help with getting their stuff into Debian in the future. We desperately need more people doing helpful stuff in Debian who are identified with Emdebian. If we do more to help Debian, we gain more support for Debian helping us. Get involved with the Debian release process, keep an eye on packages which you want to see in wheezy-grip (rc-alert), fix their RC bugs to stop them being removed from wheezy and you'll help ensure the packages survive into wheezy-grip. Oh, and if one of your favourite packages has a new upstream release - *tell the maintainers you do NOT want it in wheezy!* and make everyone's life easier. Tell them it's because you want a stable Emdebian release, tell them not to be stupid by rushing new upstream code into a stable release, tell them it's already too late (which it is), tell them whatever you like as long as they don't annoy the release team. The less work it is to release wheezy, the better will be the quality of wheezy-grip. It is that simple. If you want to help Emdebian then help Debian get Wheezy out quickly, smoothly and without complicating things by having a new upstream version in unstable only to find that the version in testing needs an RC bug fix. Encourage people to put new stuff into experimental or just wait until after the release - and explain why. Don't wait for the freeze, get involved *now* and help unstable stay clean and manageable to make it easier to get critical updates into wheezy. Help me get a good stable release of wheezy-grip, even if that is only really possible at the first point release of wheezy - by helping inside Debian. FIX the existing RC bugs and dissuade maintainers from causing new ones!! -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/

text: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected individuals are at high risk for malignancies. However, it is not currently standard of care to test routinely all cancer patients for HIV. In 2006, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommended HIV testing in all healthcare settings, calling for standard non-targeted "opt-out" HIV screening. For a variety of reasons, routine opt-out HIV testing is still not widely utilized in the United States. Although many barriers to routine opt-out HIV testing have been addressed, such opt-out HIV testing continues to be conducted primarily in venues which target specific patient populations such as pregnant women. Although opt-out testing has been piloted in emergency departments, less emphasis has been placed on opt-out HIV testing in other clinical settings. We describe the background, rationale, and evidence for supporting opt-out HIV testing as routine care for cancer patients, and discuss evidence for its potential to improve clinical outcomes by facilitating appropriate HIV management during cancer treatment for those individuals who are found to be HIV positive.

""Market research thereby reminds us that the consumer arena is about making yourself heard, making yourself known and feeling like you really matter — it's certainly not about the humdrum acquisition of use values. Moreover, the market itself is where to seek that sort of affirmation about the significance of your opinion. And it reinforces the consumerist notion that opinions are the essence of you; as far as society (i.e. the aggregate of individual choices mediated by markets) is concerned, we are the sum of our opinions, not our experiences or actions.
There is obviously an element of this eagerness to have one's opinion tallied to social-media usage, and companies have been mining sites for market-research data for a while now. I wonder how many people change their answers, so to speak, in search of some of that attention online, and whether a certain amount of attention along those lines is necessary to feel like one belongs to a consumer society. The feeling of inclusion, after all, is not something you achieve once and for all, but is something that we continually crave and seek. Social media offers addictive reminders. The microaffirmations offered by Twitter and Facebook hinge on this need. What drives us to compulsively check is not merely the compulsive quest for novelty but also the comfort in the flattering illusion that this new information was offered to us in hopes that we would respond — that our opinion matters and we belong on our terms, under conditions in which we always get to have our say. Dozens of messages scrolling past me on Twitter, all begging me to retweet them: I feel so powerful!
As the engine of micro-moments of pseudo-belonging, social media encourages ephemeral participation that reflects no necessarily deep-held concerns but rather an eagerness to say anything while the microphone is on and someone might be listening. But increasingly this behavior is being taken as indicative of not of users' impulsiveness but as indications of how they behave socially in general, as if the medium does not condition what they do, selectively recording only certain aspects of it. Social-media communication is being regarded as indistinguishable from other forms of communication that hold together social forms in real space, despite the way that real spaces tend to have nonnegotiable components to them that condition our reactions. Real spaces are now defined by requiring mandatory sorts of communication, communication that we can't escape or time-shift or control the terms of. This is now what makes "real life" real: that we have to compromise and put up with other people's bullshit without being able to just scroll past them on a screen.

Our School
Photos and Video
Synopsis Collapse
Our School follows three Roma (commonly known as "Gypsy") children in a rural Transylvanian village who are among the pioneer participants in an initiative to integrate the ethnically segregated Romanian schools. When their district is ordered desegregated, Alin, Benjamin, and Dana set out for the city school, optimistic for education and new friendships, even as funds earmarked for integration are questionably used to build a "Roma-only" school in their village. Their innocent optimism quickly sours when the children are met with baseless ostracism from peers and teachers alike.
Shot over four years, the filmmakers' tender portrait of rural village life and its rhythms fosters an intimacy in the children's profound reality and admiration for their indomitable spirit, which is then punctuated with shocking instances of prejudice and ignorance. Their story touches on issues ranging from institutionalized racism, public education, and the intractability of poverty, culminating in an outrageous finale that cements the Roma children's struggle in the annals of egregious human rights violations. Our School is an absorbing, infuriating, and ultimately bittersweet story of tradition and progress.

Easy decision to stick with County, says Andrew Hughes
11:00am Friday 25th October 2013 in Newport County By Andrew Penman
ANDREW Hughes says he didn't have to think long about signing a new contract to keep him at Newport County AFC until 2015.
Hughes and striker Conor Washington have been in talks with the club about new deals for the past few weeks but the 21-year-old defender insists that, when it came down to it, it was an easy decision to make.
"It's been going on for a few weeks now so it's good to get it over and done with and I can concentrate on the games coming up," said Hughes.
"I'm fully committed to Newport so it was a pretty straightforward decision."
The Cardiff-born youngster joined the club back in August 2008 when he accepted a place at the County academy having been released by Cardiff City aged 15.
He quickly progressed through the ranks with the Exiles, making his debut in the Conference South aged 16 under Dean Holdsworth, and is already approaching a century of first team appearances.
And, after not being a regular under current boss Justin Edinburgh in 2012/13, he has been a revelation at centre-back this season as County have prospered in League Two.
"It was a shame I strained my hamstring against Rochdale and I've missed the last two games but hopefully I'll be alright for Saturday," he said.
"Last season was frustrating for me. I couldn't seem to pin down a position but this season seems to have gone more my way and I'm enjoying every minute of it.
"I don't mind where I play," he added. "I get asked the question a lot and I don't know (my best position) to be honest. As long as I'm playing I'm happy and it's good to have a bit of versatility."
And Hughes is confident that County can continue to climb the table, starting with three points against Southend United at Rodney Parade tomorrow.
"No game is going to be easy but it's another home game and there's no reason why we can't win," he said.
"And we can only get better. With the amount of injuries we've got, when they come back, expectations will be even higher.
"Every team is focused on making the play-offs because it is so tight in this division and if we can get a few wins under our belt we'll be right up there."

Turkish air strikes 'kill dozens in Kurdish region'
Turkish warplanes killed dozens in an airstrike overnight Wednesday in Kurdish territory near the Iraqi border, according to a local official. Turkish warplanes regularly strike Kurdish militant targets in the region.
REUTERS - Turkish warplanes killed at least 35 people in an air strike in southeastern Turkey near the Iraqi border overnight, apparently mistaking smugglers for Kurdish militants, a pro-Kurdish party and local officials said on Thursday.
Turkish warplanes strike militant targets regularly in the region in their battle against Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) guerrillas, and have stepped up raids after a PKK attack in August.
"We have 30 corpses, all of them are burned. The state knew that these people were smuggling in the region. This kind of incident is unacceptable. They were hit from the air," said Fehmi Yaman, mayor of Uludere in Sirnak province.
The pro-Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party (BDP) said in a statement 35 people had been killed, adding that party leaders were heading for the area.
The Turkish government was not immediately available for comment.
Smuggling is an important source of income for locals in provinces along the Iraqi border, with many villagers involved in bringing fuel, cigarettes and other goods from Iraqi villages on the other side of the border.
PKK militants also cross the border in these areas.
"There were rumours that the PKK would cross through this region. Images were recorded of a crowd crossing last night, hence an operation was carried out," a Turkish security official said.
"We could not have known whether these people were (PKK) group members or smugglers," he said.
Television images showed a line of corpses covered by blankets on a barren hillside, with a crowd of people gathered around, some with their head in their hands and crying.
People loaded the corpses onto donkeys which were led down the hillside to be loaded into vehicles to be taken to hospital in the mainly Kurdish southeast of the country.
Security sources said those killed were carrying canisters of diesel on mules and their bodies were found on the Iraqi side of the border.
They said those killed were from Uludere on the Turkish side of the border on what was a regular smuggling route.
The Firat news agency, which has close ties to the PKK, said that 17 people were still believed to be missing. It said those killed were aged around 17-20.
The PKK, regarded as a terrorist organisation by Turkey, the European Union and the United States, launches attacks on Turkish forces in southeastern Turkey from hideouts inside the remote Iraqi mountains.
Turkey and Iran have often skirmished with rebels in the region and Turkish leaders vowed revenge in October with air and ground strikes after the PKK killed 24 Turkish soldiers in raids on military outposts in southeastern Turkey.
It was one of the deadliest attacks since the PKK took up arms in 1984 in a conflict in which more than 40,000 people have been killed.

James Traub is wrong to characterize Americans as myopic and isolationist (The Way We Live Now, Feb. 13). He draws his conclusion from the fact that United States government foreign aid, when compared with that of other countries as a percent of gross national income, ranks last.
United States government aid - $16 billion in 2003 - is the highest absolute amount, almost 25 percent of all governments' aid. This number, however, excludes American private giving of more than $43 billion, more than double the government's aid in 2003.
Traub's measure, developed by the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, does not fully count the money that foundations, corporations, religious organizations, private charities and individuals send overseas for disasters, schools and health care.
By overlooking such charitable contributions, Traub misses the big idea about America: we generally help people abroad the same way we do domestically - privately. Europeans help primarily through their governments.
Traub implies that Bush ignores poverty by confronting tyranny, but political freedom contributes to prosperity. When individuals are free to use their talents without government interference, wealth spreads quickly among many, not just a reigning few.

Brain training for babies actually works
Products designed to give babies and young children an educational headstart are hugely popular but they're mostly backed up by weak science. In some cases, for example with educational DVDs, there's even evidence of potential harm to language development, albeit that this evidence has been challenged by the creators of the DVDs.
But our Research Digest has news of one such product that seems to work - at least in the short term.

The story and the frustration are still fresh in great detail in his memory.
Nevertheless, Dr. Hortenstine is willing to put that frustration aside and come to his college this weekend to celebrate during Homecoming the 70th anniversary of his graduation.
Hortenstine is a retired radiologist now living in Killen, Ala. He made it to Alabama by way of Japan. Actually, he lived in as many as 13 different as a member of the Navy Air Corps after leaving Emory & Henry. He learned to fly, and then he had to learn to move – to New York, California, Oregon, Washington DC, Japan and other places far from Abingdon.
During World War II, he flew missions to the Pacific Islands and the Philippines. After the war, he flew commercially for American Airlines.
Eventually he decided "it was time to do something else." So he went to medical school and became a radiologist. Because radiologists were needed in Alabama, that is where he ended up.
He met his wife, a Canadian,in New York. He thought she was "the most beautiful girl" he'd ever seen. "It wasn't long before she had her hooks in me!"
They raised four talented children, one of whom is in finance and three of whom are medical doctors. And now they try to keep up with the stories of 13 busy and talented grandchildren.
"My wife is my social secretary and she keeps up with them. She also spends money on them. I'm a bit of a cheapskate."
Twenty-five dollars, four accomplished children, 13 grandchildren, and 70 years later, Dr. Clarence Hortenstine is still an amazingly interesting man to know. Keep an eye out for him at Homecoming.

The crab-eating fox is a medium-sized Neotropical canid with generalist habits and a broad distribution in South America. We have investigated its genetic diversity, population structure and demographic history across most of its geographic range by analysing 512 base pairs (bp) of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region, 615 bp of the mtDNA cytochrome b gene and 1573 total nucleotides from three different nuclear fragments. MtDNA data revealed a strong phylogeographic partition between northeastern Brazil and other portions of the species' distribution, with complete separation between southern and northern components of the Atlantic Forest. We estimated that the two groups diverged from each other c. 400 000–600 000 years ago, and have had contrasting population histories. A recent demographic expansion was inferred for the southern group, while northern populations seem to have had a longer history of large population size. Nuclear sequence data did not support this north–south pattern of subdivision, likely due at least in part to secondary male-mediated historical gene flow, inferred from multilocus coalescent-based analyses. We have compared the inferred phylogeographic patterns to those observed for other Neotropical vertebrates, and report evidence for a major north–south demographic discontinuity that seems to have marked the history of the Atlantic Forest biota.

Mike Preston grades the Ravens' 25-15 win over the Cleveland Browns
Quarterback: C
Joe Flacco started out strong, but went cold in the second half along with the rest of the offense. Flacco threw well when he had the time, but struggled to connect with Torrey Smith on deep passes.
Comments (31)
Add / View comments | Discussion FAQWhat scares me is that Flacco seems to be going backwards instead of forward. His rookie year, he was rated 22nd in the league. Then he moved up to 13th the following year and even up to seventh after that. But last year he was the 18th rated QB and this year, he stands at 19th in the league. Not the mark of a good, consistent QB. Even if you average all of that out, it comes to about 16th. Now that is just plain average. How can any of you argue that? All of Flacco's stats point to an average, inconsistent QB with above average raw talent who shows signs of breaking out every now and then but just doesn't seem to have the "stuff" to pull it all together.
The question should be "is Flacco an Eli Manning or a Tony Romo?" One just needed time to develop; the other was a flop after high expectations and flashes of talent (though team ownership refused to see their error).
If Joe wants to be among the elite QB's he has to use two BASIC techniques- the pump fake and occasionally roll out or scramble. The pump fake throws off defenders while the roll out extends the play. When used effectively they should result in more completions and thwarts the pass rush. Joe is too mechanical, holds the ball too long in the pocket and often misses open receivers. Big Ben uses the pump fake well and scrambles effectively. Take a lesson Joe- these QB techniques are obviously missing from your arsenal.

PORTAGE, MI – When Portage Northern and Portage Central met on the football field two weeks ago, the crosstown clash turned into a rout – 42-13 in favor of the Huskies.
The past couple days, Huskies and Mustangs banded together for a lopsided win of different sorts.
Friday's Portage Northern/Portage Central rematch, a Division 2 first-round playoff showdown, was the overwhelming winner of Kalamazoo's MLive.com Game of the Week poll. The Huskies (7-2) and Mustangs (6-3) will square off at 7 p.m. at McCamley Field.
The Battle of Portage Part II generated 612 of 1,628 total votes (37.6 percent). The other Division 2 first-round game in that district, Battle Creek Lakeview at Mattawan, finished second with 281 votes. The Division 6 matchup between Constantine and Watervliet was third (241).
All 13 games involving Kalamazoo-area teams were included in this week's poll. The MLive Game of the Week polls, which were popular throughout the season, are back for at least the first two rounds of the playoffs.
Here's how voting stacked up:

MLive.com Game of the Week football poll in Kalamazoo (first round of playoffs)
The Portage Central/Portage Northern clash took the lead soon as Kalamazoo's poll opened Sunday night, and ran away with the victory.
Portage Central/Portage Northern also won Kalamazoo Game of the Week honors two weeks ago. Northern was the overwhelming winner in that contest, 42-13, as the Huskies snapped a seven-game skid in the series against Portage Central.
The Mustangs lead the all-time series, 32-18. This is only the third time the Portage teams have met in the playoffs.
As the winner of the Game of the Week poll, Portage Central/Portage Northern will receive top-flight coverage from the MLive Kalamazoo crew. Coverage will include a preview, live in-game chat, multiple postgame stories and features, and photo gallery.

JACK TELNACK was looking spiffy in gray-checked suit, dark blue shirt with white collar and patterned blue tie. But then he's always spiffy, which is no great surprise. You're supposed to look good when you are the top artist at the nation's second-largest auto company.
In fact, Telnack was marking his fifth anniversary as vice president of design for Ford, and he was doing it by helping to bring a Ford-sponsored retrospective on the life and work of the architect Louis I. Kahn to the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
Like Telnack, the exhibit has been traveling, opening in Philadelphia, the city where Kahn was born, then moving to Paris before coming to Manhattan, where it will run through Aug. 18. After that, the show will go to Japan, Los Angeles, Fort Worth and Columbus, Ohio.
Telnack was scheduled to speak at the opening. But for now, he was sitting still, working his way through a plate of soft-shell crabs, and it seemed as good a time as any to chew over something else with these questions on the future of Detroit design and on his own role at Ford:

The ferry systems are developed worldwide in the locations, where it is impossible to build numerous cross sound bridges to provide an efficient commuter service. In large metropolitan cities, such as Sydney and Washington, fast ferry passenger systems carry enormous amounts of people daily. For instance, only in its first year of service, the Washington State Ferries? operated ferry system carried approximately four million passengers. Today, WSF is the largest ferry system in the USA, serving eight counties within Washington and the Province of British Columbia in Canada.
In Sydney, people do not see their daily life without a ferry travel and it is the major transport, which they use to go either to school or to the office. However, a ferry passenger cannot feel safe onboard, even when traveling with a respectable ferry company like one in Sydney. The recent accident happened to a twenty nine year old American tourist, who found herself in hospital with cuts to her face, when a Manly ferry with about one hundred and eighty people onboard hit a wharf at the Sydney's Circular Quay. The passengers announced that the ferry was going too fast, when it approached the wharf. Three other passengers got minor injuries.
An accident is not the most evil that can happen to a ferry passenger. A ferry, carrying about one thousand and four hundred people, most of them Egyptians, sank in the Red Sea. Fourteen bodies and about one hundred survivors were pulled out from the water. The cause on the sinking is still unknown and not all the bodies are found. It looks as if we live in the times of Titanic and our ?advanced technologies? do not allow to prevent accidents. Note that it is not a natural disaster, which can be unpredictable, it is an accident, caused by either the carelessness or neglect.
Needless to say that the accident caused an enormous shock and tragedy among hundreds of families, who lost their family members. The officials announced that ships, operated by the same company, had been involved in past tragedies, including one that sank last year. No cases were properly investigated or put the company's owner to the trial. The majority of passengers were Egyptian workers, returning from Saudi Arabia, and who spent years abroad to earn money for their impoverished families.
Undeniably, ferries are a lifeline for many communities and there is a need for a reliable ferry service to meet a growing demand and to maintain the safety of each ferry passenger. Perhaps, one of the safest ferry systems is Washington State Ferries; at least, no accidents are reported. The company announces that the safety and security of each ferry passenger is the main priority in the ferry system development. WSF is constantly working with their security partners - Washington State Patrol and the US Coast Guard to provide the security and safety to each ferry passenger. The Staten Island Ferry is also considered one of the most reliable forms of a mass transit, carrying over nineteen million passengers annually on a five point two mile run between the St. George Terminal in the Staten Island and the Whitehall Terminal in lower Manhattan.

Megazooka: A New Way to Scare Your Pets
Other than for driving your cat and co-workers crazy, I can't quite think of a reason for this thing. But maybe those are reasons enough! This device is an air launcher used to shoot a focused blast of air up to 20 feet away. It uses no electiricity, requiring no charging or batteries. Simply pull on an elastic launcher, and instant hilarity ensues. It's also pretty quiet, for maximum surprise effect. Measuring at about 17 inches x 15 inches by 11 inches, it's yours for $24.99 - and it's probably safer than airborne paperclips and rubber bands.

This is an increasing concern that you might even call it a paradox.
The obvious question is, should we replace flesh and blood individuals with machines that can accomplish things much faster and more efficiently?
If we consider assembly/factory work, the advantages are obvious:
-Machines don't have to adhere to labor laws, shift changes, safety concerns, insurance policies, overtime, etc. They can supplant certain work that sacrifices the health and well being of humans who currently fill those positions [All those Fedex hub workers that suffer sleep deprivation by working odd hours comes to mind.]
-Ethically speaking they can replace sweat-shops and other inhumane working conditions in third-world nations.
We tend to see technology as more of a hindrance than an aide when it comes to the economy because we just can't get past the old "what about our jobs" adage. And with 6 billion of us on the planet, it is a valid concern. Strangely, it was technology that led to over population to begin with [the industrial revelotuon allowing us to make more food that allowed more people.] And perhaps on a more frightening note, machines have the very real possiblity of replacing us altogether. We would be creating our own predecessors, as it were.
But for the time being, what we need to do is make wise decisions about the allocation of our resources, human and technilogical.

Predictions Fall 2007-08
This is my last thread, Ever!
I know this opine probably might get me banned or flamed for life, but I don't care anymore. Over the past five years, I have enjoyed reading and contributing to the forums on this site. But recently I have seen discouraging waves of change that seem disheartening. The number of series-specific forums have dwindled and a lot of the posters (not John BTW, who is a objective genius when it comes to all things anime and for that matter Japanese pop culture) nowadays have aquired a "Frenchman's attitude, using their knowledge and hidden enmity to self-assumingly strike down other anime fans. Passion is one thing but enmity is another. Truly as I've said to my friends (and those I know who including some I work with who like anime and manga) there is nothing like a bunch of self-assuming, self righteous snobs to make anime a job instead of entertainment. What used to be fun and entertainment all of a sudden has become an overly serious shouting match/popularity contest. I find this disturbing going into the future and it kinda validates (somewhat) the enmity that the anti-anime crowd has for the community. Let's get rid of all the fanservice and the hentai and the idol singers and the magical girls and boys and bishoujo and bishounen and the chojin and the RIFs and Narutards and Bleach Boosters (and some of these components are not exactly my faves) and have everything be like Miziyaki and the Girl Who Leapt through time. Nice (for the snobs) but it would be a boring boring world. John: I wish you and all of the staff at AN and AN Forums the best going forward into the future. Anywho, In honor of the coming fall TV season and the rest of the year's upcoming new anime and manga releases, anyone have any predictions ?
There are millions of fans out there and just because someone disagrees with your opinion dosen't make them right and you wrong. Be Your Own Fan. I don't listen to THEM critics, I am my OWN fan! Last edited by Mitch; August 23rd, 2007 at 04:19 PM. |

Haruhi season 2 is the only series that people will be crazy about. Everything else will be mediocre ****, maybe 2-3 A titles, but that's it. Oh and Gundam 00, hopefully it will be good. As long as Hunter x Hunter starts up again, ill be happy. Last edited by lav2k4; August 23rd, 2007 at 04:27 PM. |

Sister (Arakawa Under the Bridge)
Out of the 2007 fall season, I am looking forward to Mokke and Shugo Chara the most.
I have read the first 3 volumes of Mokke and I really find it enjoyable. One of the Hibara sisters, Mizuki (the younger one) has the worst luck when it comes to youkai. Her expressions are priceless and if Madhouse Studios can capture it right, she should steal the spotlight. I'm also interested to find out how they will animate certain youkai scenes since Mizuki cannot see them; her sister, Shizuru can. I have only read the first volume of Shugo Chara, but I really love it so far. I am quite excited to see what Satelight and its staff will do with Shugo Chara. The manga feels Clamp-ish, and the anime should, too. Other titles I am looking forward to: I simply want to check out Moyasimon because it will air on Noitamina and the premise sounds unique. I checked out Moyasimon's production company which is called Shirogumi at their site, and it seems like they have done some video game projects such as Tales of Destiny, Dirge of Cerberus, and Soul Calibur III, but not much experience with anime. Still, I am anticipating something totally unique from Moyasimon. Another supernatural (or as they are promoting it, spiritual animation) of this fall, Masamune Shirow and Production I.G's Ghost Hound. The trailer has been available for a while now, and it can be found here. Other Production I.G title I would like to check out is "Tokyo Marble Chocolate", altough, it's not a TV series. Last but probably not least, Genshiken II. What I am wondering is what chapter the anime will pick up from. Either way, the second series should focus more on Ogiue and her true intentions. I can't wait. Other titles I am curious enough to check out: Sketchbook ~Full Color's~, which is based on a seinen 4-koma. The trailer is also available at their site. Shion no Ou, which I don't know much about except it is about this girl who seeks some information about her parents' death by competing in a Japanese chess-like game called shougi. This girl supposedly lost her voice, so, it will be interesting to see a muted character. ^^; KimiKiss Pure Rouge just because I like J.C.Staff and the seiyuu list is attractive. ^^; One of the characters seen at their official site remind me of Otoha (Sky Girls), just appearance wise. I'm disappointed to see Ayako Kawasumi missing from the roster. ;; There are many more winter anime I am interested in that I haven't mentioned. I am excited!

Just as well, becuase that tiny font hurts my eyes.
Shakugan no Shana II - I enjoyed the first season, so I will probably check out the second. Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion - Second Season - Eh, the first season started out good, but I started to lose interest during the second half, and that looooong wait for the last two episodes was the final nail in the coffin for me. Not going to bother. Kodomo no Jikan - I'm curious just to see what they do with this. I checked out the manga a bit just to see what all the uproar was about. The story itself actually looked pretty good but I found the lolicon/ecchi too OTT for my tastes. I imagine they will be toning it down in the anime, so perhaps that will allow the anime to focus more on the story and characters. D.C. II (Da Capo II) - I have to see if this is sequel is more like D.C (good) or D.C.S.S (bad). I've got my fingers crossed! I don't know enough about any of the other series that were announced to have an opinion one way or the other for now. EDIT: As I was looking through some websites for info on the Fall season, I found at least one more interesting tidbits with no specific start date: Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru - Second Season - I really liked the first season of this, so I'll be checking out the sequel if it really happens. I'm kind of curious how they handle this, as the end titles of the final episode of season 1 suggested that the main characters had graduated which would make a continuation of their story kind of problematic.

Buying up some Bullish Stock Charts for A Change. About Time!
Dec 31, 2008 Small Cap Stock Picks, Technical Analysis
Its been a while since i've seen any decent chart patterns in the stock market as since september the price movements in stocks were completely irrational and nearly impossible to predict as some new PR would cause hysteria in the markets just about every other day swinging the market in either direction yet mostly down.
Now it seems we've found some stabilization as stocks have cooled off a bit and chart patterns are beginning to normalize instead of looking at a chart and saying… What the fuck am i supposed to do with that?
Small cap Stock Pick Numero Uno : ????
Looking back at this chart since since there wasn't much you could do with this stock chart as it was gapping up and down all over the place… Any short term trade that was a success was a matter of luck… Yet now we've had some "normal" price movements in the past couple weeks which havbe formed a bullish ascending triangle in this case. Looking at the chart here i think its very possible we could see this move back up and re-test the $100 resistance zone which would post a nice gain from here around $80. I'm going to fill a 1/2 position here Wednesday morning to test the waters and see what kind of action we can get using technical analysis here starting in 2009.
To get this stock pick along with all of my other stock picks sign up for a FREE 2 WEEK TRIAL TO BLACK SERVICE
Small Cap Stock pick #2 - ????
Next stock pick we're looking at broke out from a symmetrical triangle pattern breaking out of resistance around $4/share horizontally. Though this made a pretty large move tuesday so will be looking to buy a position in this stock on a pullback near the midpoint of the breakout candle, which would be around $4/share. Volume was significant on this breakout indicating a higher probability of a continuation north from here. Looking to buy this wednesday on a pullback near $4/share
Technical Analysis Day Trading: Made some Quick Bux on HIG
Dec 19, 2008 Day Trading, Small Cap Stock Picks, Technical Analysis
I went short today in HIG for an extremely quick daytrade as the market collapsed in the later part of the session. The last hour of trading these days is highly volatile and highly unpredictable making it difficult to trade as well as well to follow.
HIG had been trending down for most of the session on the intraday 5 minute chart and was breaking down its latest bull flag pattern which signaled to me this was a good time to go short and that another leg down could follow. Apparently i was right and the market tumbled in a matter of minutes bringing HIG down with it. I went short HIG at 17.73 and covered for a quick profit at 17.11

Technical Analysis Day Trading: Capped some Gains Daytrading $TBSI
Dec 16, 2008 Day Trading, Small Cap Stock Picks, Technical Analysis
The market was pretty flat today surprised to see just a double digit move it the market for once. Although it was still highly unstable irraticating up and down in swings that were triple digit sometimes in a matter of just 15 minutues. Hard to satisfy any directional movement in the market playing short term swings as we swing up and down and all around, looking good one minute and completely opposite the next.
But in any regards we scored some points today for our Black Service stock picks that are up over 120% this year while the market has tanked!
Stock Pick – TBSI
This was the only stock that i traded today as there just wasn't much set ups of interest today. I went short on the breakdown of the intraday symmetrical triangle pattern that was formed on the 5 minute chart at 8.42 and notified black service members to do the same. From there TBSI fell sharply in the low 8′s where i took profits on 1/2 of this position at 8.16 to ensure some gains. I held onto the second 1/2 position for a short while to see if the had anymore downside pressure after a short term rebound but eventually got stopped out at 8.46 when it was breaking to the upside of a consolidation pattern which is why it is always important to take some money off the trade when you have profits to ensure some profits. TBSI ended up closing at 8.60.

Dow Futures Getting Slammed Heading into Friday! $BAC to cut 35k Jobs
Dec 12, 2008 Small Cap Stock Picks, Technical Analysis
Futures are getting hammered currently as im right this at 11:17pm thursday night and are down 272 points currently. They were even down around 340 points not too long ago but have rallied somewhat. I wasn't expecting this rally as of late in the market to hold for very long which is why i shorted DSX and EXM yesterday for some huge gains as well as went short in another stock today thats only veiwable to Black Service members which is our premium service that is up over 120% this year.
Its highly probable that we will see a huge gap down in the morning with some heavy volatility. As well as a you know what load of profits on are short stock pick i called today as we headed into the close. Bank of America announced today that they are cutting 35k jobs which is probably weighing heavily on the market. Been seeing more and more PR's of job cuts but none near as big as 35k. Theres gonna be an ugly chain reaction from all these job cuts as more and more people are gonna be broke and struggling to get by in this depression. Consumer spending will fall, more people are gonnna go bankrupt, and a shit ton more of forclosures for people who have lost there jobs and can't make their mortgage payments anymore… What i crappy we're living in. Can't wait to get out of this crap hole. But we'll do our best to not die in the hole and get ourselves out of it!

Another Stock Pick to go Short using Technical Analysis
Dec 11, 2008 Small Cap Stock Picks, Technical Analysis
The last two trades i just closed to in DSX and EXM had certain setups that I love trading. I found this other set up today in ???? that has a very similar pattern and looks worthy of trading. And with the DOW breaking down its short term pennant formation today it would appear that that chances of us falling tomorrow are greater than rallying.
I took up a short position in this stock at 6.72. If you want to know what stock pick this is along with getting my real time trade alerts via live video, chat, and email sign up for Black Service! Holiday Special!
This stock has continued to try and rally for the 3rd time today but higher prices have not been warranted by the market. Now with today as the first down day in the rally and a bearish candle. Its likely that this will fall Friday.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the 32nd president of the United States, held that title longer than any man in history and dealt, during his time, with some of the greatest problems internal or external, which had faced the nation.
The internal crisis which existed at the time of his first inauguration, on March 4, 1933, when the nation's economic system was faltering and its financial organism paralyzed by fear, was followed in his third term by the global war during which he and Winston Churchill emerged as leaders of the English-speaking world.
The years in between were packed with swift and drastic social and economic changes to make Mr. Roosevelt the most controversial figure in American history. Beloved by millions, hated, admired, feared and scorned by countless adversaries, he did much to shape the future of the nation he headed and the world.
As the young New York State senator who won national acclaim before he was 30; as the assistant secretary of the Navy before and during U.S. participation in the First World War; as the unsuccessful Democratic nominee for vice president in 1920 and as the governor of New York for two terms beginning in 1928, he had acheived unusual honors even before his presidency.
He died from a cerebral hemorrhage in Warm Springs, Ga. in 1945 during his fourth term as president. He was 63. Adapted from "Roosevelt Regime, From '33, Longest in Nation's History," April 13, 1945

Mr. Jacke is ready to touch on topics that we all have in private. Oh stop being so dramatic. Nuns don't come to LateBoots! As per Alex Jacke's inagural introduction to the LateBoots Family, he was a musical experience to say the least. This is a voice that takes aim at the history books. He has a sound to match those grand pretensions. Alex Jacke will give you a melody–from LA to NY and beyond. The singer/songwriter has just released his new single "One Thing".

And in between developing his own project, he has curated Jacke Nights!!! which is a live streaming conversation touching on various sexual topics to relationships (and your engagement is highly recommended). Exactly the main reason why you should take a listen.
