BOARDING BRILLIANCE
Blind man paddles incredible 70km solo from one Scottish island to another
Dean Dunbar from Blairgowrie travelled the 70km by himself from North Uist to St Kilda in just two days

A BLIND man has paddled an incredible 70km solo from one Scottish island to another.
Dean Dunbar from Blairgowrie paddled from North Uist to St Kilda in just two days.

The 48-year-old, who is registered blind, was shown the route a few times by his guide Patrick before he took on the feat himself.
Despite having a few accidents in the past, Dean revealed that paddleboarding made him feel more independent.
He said: "In 2014 I bought myself a standard paddleboard and for the past three years I've been hooked.
"I usually have to go out with guides on the sports that I do, but paddleboarding gives me a sense of independence.
"If I go out with someone for the first time, they will show me my route, but after that I become independent."

He added: "When I paddle I see everything in three layers – there's the bottom which is the water, the middle which is the hills and the top which is the sky.
"I've realised that when each side meets together in the middle and creates a V shape, that's when I've reached the end of the loch, and I know where I'm going.
"Sometimes I have a few accidents and crash into land, but because I'm strapped onto the board it means that I only fall into the water, so it's never painful."

Car thieves weren't sheltering at home during the COVID-19 pandemic. They were out stealing cars and reversing two years of motor vehicle theft declines.
A recent study by the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) found that car thefts were up dramatically in 2020 compared to 2019. The study found that there were 873,080 motor vehicle thefts in 2020. That's a 9.2% increase over 2019 when there were 799,644 motor vehicle thefts. This is an increase of 73,000 car thefts.
"Preliminary reports indicate a sharp increase in automobile thefts for 2020," said NICB President and CEO David Glawe in the press release. "All indications are 2020 will be the largest theft year in the past decade by a significant margin."
Every single month in 2020 saw an increase in car thefts. While the motor vehicle theft increase was a shocking 9.2%, car thieves got really busy in the second half of the year. Every month from June through December saw double-digit percentage gains in car thefts.
"Based on the preliminary nature of the data, the cause of this increase will require a thorough intelligence assessment," said Glawe. "Considerations such as the pandemic, economic downturn, loss of juvenile outreach programs and public safety budgetary and resource limitations are likely contributing factors. Thieves exploit opportunities and may look for vehicles parked in the same location or citizens not taking proper measures to secure their vehicles."
Car theft is big business. FBI data estimated that roughly $6.4 billion was lost to car theft in 2019, with the average dollar loss per theft coming in at $8,886. In 2019, the motor vehicle theft rate was roughly 219.9 per 100,000 people in 2019. That was a decline from 230.2 in 2018. Those numbers headed up for 2020.
The total number of car thefts in 2019 went down as well, with a total of 721,885 motor vehicle thefts, a 4% dip from the 751,885 vehicles stolen in 2018. Overall, motor vehicle thefts have dropped dramatically in the last 26 years since they peaked in 1991 when an astounding 1.7 million vehicles were stolen. This translates into a 43% decline when compared to the 2019 numbers.
The NICB credits not only law enforcement for the motor vehicle theft decline but also anti-theft technology that has made it more difficult to steal vehicles, as well as insurance company support for organizations, such as the NCIB.
While most of us are celebrating the holidays, car thieves may be headed into work. New Year's Day is the biggest day for motor vehicle theft, but Labor Day runs a close second.
Here are the top 10 holidays when it comes to car theft:
New Year's Day -- 2,320
Labor Day -- 2,222
Presidents' Day -- 2,204
New Year's Eve -- 2,201
Halloween -- 2,191
Valentine's Day -- 2,174
Memorial Day -- 2,162
Christmas Eve -- 2,011
Independence Day -- 1,995
Thanksgiving -- 1,683
Not every state is created equal when it comes to car theft. Most of the states in the top 10 for motor vehicle thefts all have large cities within their borders and are less rural than the states where motor vehicle theft is less common.
The Golden State grabbed the brass ring for motor vehicle thefts with 141,757 car boosts in 2019. California also held the top spot for motor vehicle theft by metropolitan area (see below), which makes locking your ride up even more important if you call California home. The rest of the top five was rounded out by Texas, Florida, Washington and Georgia.
Here are the top 10 states for motor vehicle theft:
California -- 141,757
Texas -- 77,489
Florida -- 39,048
Washington -- 24,402
Georgia -- 23,776
Colorado -- 22,113
Missouri -- 21,072
Tennessee -- 19,180
Illinois -- 18,775
Ohio -- 18,672
States that are a bit more rural, with smaller populations, make up most of the states where car theft is rare. Vermont only saw 298 car thefts in 2019, which is 99.8% fewer motor vehicle thefts than hit California in 2019. The top five consisted of Vermont, Wyoming, Maine, New Hampshire and Rhode Island.
It turns out that the largest percentage of vehicles are stolen from the Golden State. California isn't only the number one state for car theft, but its metropolitan areas also rank at the top of car theft lists. Many of the highest motor vehicle theft cities are located in California.
California's Bakersfield metropolitan area had the highest per capita motor vehicle theft rate in 2019, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau in its latest motor vehicle theft statistics by city metro area report. California managed to put four metro areas in the top 10 for motor vehicle thefts, the only state with more than one metro area in the top 10.
New Mexico's Albuquerque metropolitan area, which includes Bernalillo County, had been the leader the previous two years for motor vehicle theft. Despite having a motor vehicle theft decline from 2018 to 2019, Bakersfield metro area, which includes Kern County, moved from third to first for having the most vehicles stolen per capita. California has the dubious distinction of placing 10 metro areas in the top 20 nationally for motor vehicle theft.
NICB's report analyzes motor vehicle theft data from the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) for each of the nation's Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSA). These areas often include many other cities and towns beyond the namesake city.
Another note on the findings: It turns out that car thefts by city is not always an accurate indicator. When it comes to a population-based survey, an area with fewer people and a moderate number of thefts can and often does have a higher motor vehicle theft rate than an area with a much higher motor vehicle theft rate and a larger population to absorb it.
That's why the St. Joseph, Missouri metro area, with 770 car thefts, placed third, while Los Angeles, with 49,441 ranked at No. 45.
Here are the 10 states that had the fewest motor vehicle thefts in 2019:
Vermont -- 298
Wyoming -- 713
Maine -- 726
New Hampshire -- 893
Rhode Island -- 1,358
Idaho -- 1,571
Delaware -- 1,604
South Dakota -- 1,756
North Dakota -- 1,792
D.C. -- 2,333
If your vehicle is stolen, you must have comprehensive car insurance to file a claim to replace it.
When getting a quote for comprehensive coverage, you need to choose a deductible amount. A deductible is the amount you're responsible for paying before your insurance benefits start to payout. Comprehensive insurance also covers damage due to flooding, fire, hail, wind, vandalism and animal strikes, in addition to theft. If your car is stolen and you file an auto insurance claim, you'll get your car's actual cash value, minus your deductible.
The car's value, your driving record, your deductible and repair costs determine the cost of comprehensive auto insurance coverage, but it's usually very affordable. The average annual cost nationwide for comprehensive coverage is just $192, according to a CarInsurance.com rate analysis.
But you can reduce your chances for theft and trim your car insurance rates by using anti-theft devices. Auto insurance companies will typically grant car insurance discounts of up to 15%, but sometimes, even more, depending on the device you have, if your car has theft protection.
Car insurance doesn't cover personal items in your car. Instead, you would need homeowners or renters insurance to help if someone steals personal items.
Here are 384 metro areas with populations over 50,000, ranked by rate of vehicle thefts per 100,000 residents, as calculated by the NICB.

PR – ESA, as coordinator of GMES Space Component and related data access, received in response to a call 12 proposals offering to provide data from more than 40 European and non-European Earth Observation satellites to GMES Services over the next years.
Among the satellites are ESA Member States' missions, such as France's Spot and Pleiades satellites, Germany's TerraSAR-X, Italy's CosmoSkyMed, the UK-led DMC constellation (including the soon-to-be launched DMC-UK2 and Spain's Deimos-1), as well as Canada's Radarsat, Israel's EROS and other non-European missions distributed through European companies. In addition, ESA will act as data provider for its own Earth Observation (EO) missions, such as Envisat and ERS-2, as well as its Third Party Missions.
Some agencies, such as ESA and the European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT), are offering their data free of charge, while others are offering favourable conditions to the GMES Services.

Hutchins receives National Translation Award
Posted Nov. 9, 2015 at 1:31 p.m.
BOONE—William M. Hutchins, a professor in Appalachian State University's Department of Philosophy and Religion, has received the National Translation Award from the American Literary Translators Association in the prose category. The award recognizes his Arabic to English translation of "The New Waw: Saharan Oasis" by Ibrahim al-Koni.
"William M. Hutchins' translation of 'New Waw: Saharan Oasis' masterfully channels the poetic rhythms of Ibrahim al-Koni's tale of a group of Tuareg, struggling with their evolution from a nomadic tribe to a settled community and the tensions that inevitably arise," said NTA judges Jason Grunebaum, Anne Magnan-Park and Pamela Carmell. "Legends, fables, prophecies and tribal laws, expressed in lyrical, metaphorical language, give a glimpse into the group's traditions and the Tuareg mythical paradise oasis, Waw."
Hutchins' work was supported by a National Endowment of the Arts Literature Translation Fellowship, one of two he has received during his career.
Hutchins is known for his translation of the Cairo Trilogy by Egyptian Nobel Prize-winner Naguib Mahfouz. This trio of novels is widely regarded as one of the finest works of fiction in Arabic literature, and Hutchins' translation is the principal version available in English.
In addition, he has translated a variety of Arabic authors, including Tawfiq al-Hakim, Ibrahim Abd al-Qadir al-Mazini, Muhammad Salmawy, Nawal El-Saadawi, Ibrahim al-Koni, and others.
Hutchins was co-winner of the Saif Ghobash Banipal Prize for Arabic Literary Translation in 2013 for his work on Wajdi al-Ahdal's "A Land Without Jasmine."


China-focused stocks were the among the worst performers in the region on Thursday after the arrest of Huawei's chief financial officer in Vancouver reignited concerns about US-China trade tensions.
The Hang Seng China Enterprises index of large-cap Chinese companies listed in Hong Kong fell as much as 3.1 per cent while the broader Hang Seng index was down as much as 2.9 per cent.
In China the CSI 300 index of Shanghai and Shenzhen-listed stocks fell 1.6 per cent. The Shanghai Composite index was down 1.3 per cent, as was the Shenzhen Composite. Among the hardest hit in the region were Chinese electronics suppliers, with ZTE down as much as 6.7 per cent.
Elsewhere in the region losses for equities were holding fast as the trading day wore on, with Tokyo's Topix off 2.2 per cent and Sydney's S&P/ASX 200 down 0.4 per cent.
Those falls came after Canadian officials confirmed that Ms Meng had been detained on Saturday after her extradition was sought by the United States. Huawei said it was not aware of any wrongdoing by Ms Meng and Chinese officials urged the US and Canada to immediately release her.
The bid by the US to extradite Ms Meng comes against a backdrop of heightened tension over trade and technology between the US and China after US President Donald Trump and China's President Xi Jinping agreed at the G20 in Argentina to a temporary truce to allow negotiators more time to work toward a deal.
Natixis senior economist Trinh Nguyen said news of the arrest "adds to the fear that the two sides are further apart after Buenos Aires".
"The question moving forward is: 'what is China's response to this?' As in whether China and the US will move closer together than they are today to give global markets a much-needed respite or further apart," Ms Nguyen said.

Q: how to show all gtest case by bazel without "test" cmd I want to query all gtest cases by bazel,
parameter "--gtest_filter"  only can be used with "bazel test " cmd
and I am try to use "bazel query bazel query //xxx:all", but it will show the test list which defined in BUILD file , I want to get the cases list from  xxx.cc files.

A: This is not a job that bazel query can do. Query operates on the graph structure of targets. A fundamental design decision of Bazel is that this graph can be computed by looking only at BUILD files and the .bzl files they depend on. In particular, parsing source files is not allowed.
(The argument to --test_filter is simply passed through the test runner; Bazel does not know what it represents.)

A: If you use CLion with the Bazel plugin you get the following view for googletest tests:

This works even with Catch2 (but for Catch2 the view is not so nice). I guess that's some IDE magic here - nevertheless, it gives you what you want. I assume you can also come up with some type of Bazel Aspect that produces this information for you.
I tested this also with Lavender (with minor modifications) and Visual Studio which gives me in the test overview also a list of all test:

Rep. Michele Bachmann, who ran neck and neck with Republican presidential front-runner Mitt Romney in a recent Des Moines Register poll, pulls ahead of the former Massachusetts governor in a nose count taken for TheIowaRepublican.com and The Iowa Republican magazine. The Minnesota congresswoman garnered the support of 25 percent of likely Iowa caucus-goers, compared with 21 percent for Romney, in the Iowa Republican tally.
Although that's still close in the statistical world, The Iowa Republican highlights more good news for Bachmann in the June 25-30 poll of 500 likely caucus-goers. She snagged a favorability rating 10 points higher than Romney's, and her unfavorable tally is 14 points lower than his, giving her what The Iowa Republican describes as a "stellar plus 65 favorability margin." That compares with 41 percent for Romney, who trails former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, at 48 percent favorability, and businessman Herman Cain at 42 percent favorability.
Even though Pawlenty and Cain lead Romney in their favorability tallies, Romney leaves them in the dust in the overall support figure, where Pawlenty and Cain are tied at 9 percent.
The Iowa Republican poll was taken a few days after the Des Moines Register's, which gave Romney a 23-22 percent lead over Bachmann.
"Bachmann's campaign has taken off like a rocket since participating and announcing her presidential intentions during the CNN debate in New Hampshire last month," The Iowa Republican notes.
Bachmann, founder and head of the House Tea Party Caucus, also has the most widespread support in the state, leading in all of the Hawkeye State's media markets except Sioux City, where Romney leads, The Iowa Republican poll shows.

NJ gun charge dropped against Pa. guard
TRENTON - A Gloucester County prosecutor has dropped a felony gun charge against a Pennsylvania corrections officer, noting that officers only learned that the guard had a gun in his car because he was the victim of a drunken driving crash.
Prosecutor Sean Dalton said Monday that the charge against Raymond Hughes of carrying a weapon without a state permit was inappropriate.
Hughes had a Pennsylvania carry permit, but it wasn't recognized by New Jersey's strict gun laws. He faced a minimum of 3½ years in prison if he was found guilty.
Police in Glassboro filed the charges last month. Dalton said the prosecutor's office had been reviewing the case but decided to dismiss the charges instead of allowing the case to move forward.
"In this particular case, Mr. Hughes was the victim of a crime prior to any violation of New Jersey gun law," Dalton said.
Hughes said he and his wife were on their way home from a concert and dinner in Atlantic City last month when a drunken driver hit their vehicle. He told police he had a handgun under his seat, and officers secured his personal 9mm Glock handgun while he went to the hospital, he said. He was charged days later.
Hughes, 46, was the latest to be charged with carrying a legally owned gun into New Jersey, which doesn't recognize carry permits from other states. Last year, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie pardoned at least six people who faced similar charges.
"I am very happy and very thankful to the prosecutor's office," Hughes told The Associated Press on Monday.
His attorney, Evan Nappen, said the dropped charges are yet more evidence of the need to reform gun laws on the state and federal levels. He called New Jersey's laws "inflexible and draconian."
But Bryan Miller, executive director of Heeding God's Call, a faith-based group working to prevent gun violence, said he doubts most New Jersey residents agree.
He added: "People should learn from this example to not bring their guns into New Jersey."

There are really too many for me to name. FLCL remains one of my top favorites. Sure it's a great comedy, but I love the more deeper aspects of the show, such as the theme on growing up as well as Ninamori & Mamimi's insecurities. Trigun and .Hack//SIGN are also two of my favorites. I'm not afraid to admit I'm a total nerd for Digimon either. xD
Also, I have fond memories of coming home from school and watching the anime shows on Toonami. Gundam Wing, Blue Sub. 6, Zoids and all the other shows on that programming block will always have a special place in my heart. :3

I'd have to agree that Hunter X Hunter is pretty great, especially for a Shounen Jump title. The biggest reason it has such a strong flow is it avoids a lot of the pitfalls most other similar genre titles (Naruto, Bleach, etc.) fall into.
For one, the fighting in the show takes a backseat to the character development and plot progression. It delivers action and drama that excludes two guys in a staring contest for ten episodes. The few times the series does rely upon fighting, it's serious. People die, things change and the plot then jumps forward accordingly, as opposed to having a huge battle that ends with everyone wounded and retreating, waiting a few episodes for their lengthy counterattack.
Secondly, the main characters are well developed and the cast isn't as ridiculously huge as so many other lengthy anime/manga series. You have four core characters. When the cast gets too big in a series, the plot moves at a snail's pace, because we have to see what everyone is doing all the time. This means each plot thread only gets a couple of minutes of forward momentum per episode.
Lastly, it's just well written. Go Togashi! Too bad he has been on and off sabbatical over and over for the last five or six years. New chapter releases are immensely infrequent and you can see his art and story take a hit in quality because of his illness.

I enjoyed Hunter x Hunter, but it wouldn't fall into my favorite spot. I do agree that the character development is phenomenal and the tension is through the roof, but it's difficult to relate to any of the individual characters, which is some of the appeal with a lot of series. Series that don't conform on that level usually have the stoic composed badass who is larger than life, while Gon and Killua are just naive youth out and about in a secretive world that is too large for words. While that is nice to see how they develop, it's just not something I appreciate more than the former options, if that makes sense at all. Plus, the infrequent manga updates are infuriating.

I think my experience with anime is a bit limited, but here is my list anyway.
1) Hayao Miyazaki films in general (especially Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, Castle in the Sky, Porco Rosso, My Neighbor Totoro, Howl's Moving Castle, and The Cat Returns)
2) Ninja Scroll
3) Vampire Hunter D
4) Witch Hunter Robbin
5) Akira

To the people who admit they like Fushigi Yuugi: I salute you. After burning out on it as a teenager, I came to think of it guilty pleasure. And speaking of guilty pleasures, Code Geass... the people who made it wanted so badly for it to appeal to every major fanbase, but even though I see right through it I can't help but like it. But if you want a genre-spanning Sunrise mecha show with a little more artistic integrity, there's always Escaflowne, which I more than just like. In fact, I <3 Escaflowne.
Some other favorites of mine.
Revolutionary Girl Utena - my most favorite-est anime, sort of a fairy tale turned askew. It's notoriously weird and has an uncanny way of always upping the weird ante. (Thanks to that, you don't even have to suspend your disbelief.)
Loveless - What is wrong with this show? Why does that twenty-something guy seem to want that emotionally damaged 6th-grader to be his dom? If you accustom yourself to the story's weird metaphors and unbalanced (inapropriate?) relationships it's quite moving.
Infinite Ryvius - Sunrise! Mecha! Space opera! Easily summed up as Lord of the Flies in space; it's both ambitious and well-executed. And when I say ambitious, I mean it has an ensemble cast of 500.
Scrapped Princess - I didn't say so, but Scrapped Princess is "one of the better series you're probably not watching". If you ask me, it's just the sort of thing that J-RPG loving posters here would be into.

Geez, I've seen almost everything in this thread and a majority of the series are in my expansive collection... Makes me kind of proud... And also kind of sickened with myself. Ah well, I embrace it as my primary nerd obsession. And Shiva, Scrapped Princess? Hell yes. I love that series, the plot is so emotionally straining. A naive and innocent fifteen year old girl who wants nothing more than to live out a normal life around the people she loves, but is unable to due to a prophecy foretelling the destruction of the world should she reach her sixteenth birthday. Her brother Shannon battling it out with the Peacemakers with the powers of the lost technology the Dragoon? Awesome. Definitely recommended.

I actually haven't gotten around to any of these, though they're all on my list. Well, not Loveless. The first PV I saw before it started airing kind of turned me off, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't like it. Maybe I'll check it out! Oh, also.. I like Fushigi Yuugi a fair bit. Admission.

Series that don't conform on that level usually have the stoic composed badass who is larger than life,
Kurapica? Bleh, he pretends to be calm and badass, but he constantly cracks under pressure. Someone like Kurama from Yu Yu Hakusho is a true badass.
while Gon and Killua are just naive youth out and about in a secretive world that is too large for words.
I like Gon, but my favorite characters are Killua and Hisoka by far. I'm sure you've got to like Hisoka. He's an interesting character, and is fairly unique as well.

Eh, Kurapica is lame. Hisoka is easily my favorite character too, he's just so damned eeeevil! The calm composed badass character I was referring to relate's to characters like Kamui from X, or Aoshi from Kenshin. They just too awesome to care about anything and they have the skills to back it all up.

Eh, Kurapica is lame.
Yeah, he's like a watered down version of Kurama. Now Kurama on the other hand, is the man.
Hisoka is easily my favorite character too, he's just so damned eeeevil!
Yet, at the same time he can be nice and friendly. Awesome character.
The calm composed badass character I was referring to relate's to characters like Kamui from X, or Aoshi from Kenshin. They just too awesome to care about anything and they have the skills to back it all up.
Can't say I'm much of a fan of either character. Kenshin is one of my favorite animes, I vastly prefer Kenshin, Shishio, Saito, Hiko, and Sano though.

bleach- probably my fave... though it's pacing is horrible, i loved the battles, bankai, characters, story esp. it's kinda a game of chess b/w aizen and urahara... well it sucks that the villains keep getting killed(the espadas) but yeah sometimes you need not to care or you'll hate bleach...
the animation here is pretty good, i am so looking forward on the seven deadly sins chapter into anime... that battle is my favorite... i almost p*** in my pants when i saw the soul carnival animation of ulquiorra versus ichigo hollow form... damn...
one piece- this is good, slightly better than the manga version... although it's cartoonish, sometimes you need not to care...
hunter x hunter- it was good until the chimera arc... then the mangaka is pretty lazy (probably playing playstation games or probably a writer's block according to rumors)... yu yu hakusho i think is better...
Claymore- hmmm... probably what i hate about this series is that there are pretty much unnecessary deaths... i mean i like deaths to happened on the good side, but this is pretty much... much... but i really like it overall... teresa of the faint smile gaiden saved the series for me...
Dragon Ball- forget the angry outbursts that makes them "it's over 9000..."...lol this will always have a special place in my heart...

Bleach: I don't know why, but I'm really addicted to this one.. The plot flow is kinda choppy and vague but entertaining... I guess the action scenes and buildup makes up for any plot flaws.. lol
Fullmetal Alchemist: The storyline to this one was AMAZING!! I hated that it had to end, but the ending movie pulled it all together nicely at the end. I'd really like it to start back again.. The plot was so well designed and the abilities were great.
Dragon Ball Z: This was my first anime so, of course, it will also hold a special place in my heart.. The original Dragon Ball was nice too, but the newest spin-off, Dragon Ball GT, can go hide in a corner and die.. I hated it. It was like a spit to my Dragon Ball Z-loving face.. lol

I agree wholeheartedly, the Onizuka manga is so much better than the anime.

I just saw Haibane Renmei for the first time. Yeah, I've been living under a rock or something.
I don't know if it's my absolute favorite, but it's easily in my top five. So beautiful and sad and strange all at the same time, with such lovely music.

I'm so picky when it comes to anime. I only pick it up if I know I will love it (or, like Star Ocean EX, I knew the quality was horrible and that I'd only be getting Disc 1 of the game through the plot, but being a long fan of it, bought it anyway).
I also pick up everything that Yoshitoshi ABe has been involved in, as he is my favorite artist and Lain was my second anime.
My top 10:
1) Perfect Blue (a movie techinically, but I also love Satoshi KON)
2) Lain or Haibane Renmei
3) Paranoia Agent
4) Tokko (animation was poor, series was good until final episode)
5) Neon Genesis Evangelion (Say Hi to your local Rei Ayanami / Lance of Longinus fan and my gf is the Asuka fanatic)
6) Digimon Adventure (as well as the english)
7) BoogiePop Phantom
8) Hell Girl
9) .hack//SIGN
10) FullMetal Alchemist
I'm sure there's more... but not much... Pokemon (Original through Johto and anything with Mew in it) and I've never put myself down to finish Noir, but its lovely too. I also need to finish ABe's other series' NeiA_7 and Texhnolyze...
I didnt grow up with Cartoon Network as a cable channel so I missed DragonBall/DBZ and Sailor Moon. I like what I did see of them (DB/DBZ in English, Sailor Moon mostly in Japanese, with some english) I liked the scrapped to heck CardCaptors but I've never gotten to see Card Captor Sakura and Utena because of the scarce DVD releases (I do own the rarest set of Utena though -- $15 sealed <3 ) and I've also wanted to pick up Welcome to the NHK (ABe did the art for the cover of the novel so I read it, now I want the series lol) I've also seen a little bit of anything popular... Naruto, Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, ect.
I want to see Solty Rei, Spice and Wolf, the new Eva movies, Monster (saw Ep 1 on PSN), and the few trickle of "dark" anime that have come out over the years. I know, S&W doesn't really count, but I just got excited over it.

This presentation is part of World Migratory Bird Day.
Illinois is home to the Sandhill Crane and the endangered Whooping Crane. In the 1940s both Sandhill Cranes and Whooping Cranes reached drastically low population sizes. Today Sandhill Cranes are one of the most populous cranes in the world and there are over 650 wild Whooping Cranes, around 76 of which will migrate through northern Illinois each year. While their population numbers are growing, both Whooping Cranes and Sandhill Cranes continue to face threats.
Join Stephanie Schmidt, Whooping Crane Outreach Coordinator for the International Crane Foundation, to learn about the cranes of Illinois and Wisconsin. Stephanie Schmidt is the Whooping Crane Outreach Coordinator for the International Crane Foundation. Stephanie grew up in the Kettle Moraine area in southeastern Wisconsin, a region that is known for its many Sandhill Cranes and ignited her early love for birds, wetlands, and nature. She attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison to earn her bachelor's degree in Zoology and Environmental Studies in 2018 and in 2022 she earned her master's degree in Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Kenya: Plot Thickens
What the heck is this? From London's Financial Times:
A confidential memo from the World Bank's Kenya office that supports President Mwai Kibaki's claim of victory in the country's disputed elections plunged the Washington-based lender into controversy yesterday.
The leaked January 1 briefing note, originating from Colin Bruce, the World Bank's representative in Nairobi, lays out the case for accepting Mr Kibaki's victory on the basis of "oral briefings and documents from senior [United Nations Development Programme] officials" who "monitored the overall electoral process".
The memo claims that "the considered view of the UN is that the Electoral Commission of Kenya announcement of a Kibaki win is correct".
However, Michele Montas, a spokeswoman for the UN secretary-general, denied that the UN had adopted that position. UNDP officials said they had neither monitored the elections nor provided any assessment suggesting a Kibaki victory.
Given the widespread irregularities reported in last month's elections, the leaked briefing note is likely to trigger accusations that the institution, which lends heavily to Kenya, has lost its political objectivity.
European Union election observers, whom Mr Bruce criticised, yesterday stood by their conclusion that the election was impossible to call.
Mr Bruce's memo has created discomfort among some senior World Bank staff who fear the bank's analysis of the Kenyan crisis has been influenced by too close a relationship with Mr Kibaki. Mr Bruce lives in a house owned by the Kibaki family. The bank said Mr Bruce's tenancy was inherited from its previous country representative and had been chosen on security grounds.
The World Bank has been criticised for maintaining its large development programme in Kenya in spite of evidence of high-level corruption in Mr Kibaki's government. The bank says its projects are vital for the country's poor.
Mr Bruce told the Financial Times the bank had no position on the result of the elections and he "was simply reporting the information that was available to me to headquarters".
World Bank officials in Washington backed Mr Bruce and released a series of other communications from him, stating these showed his balanced approach to the elections. None of the other briefing notes regarding the Kenyan crisis revisits the question of whether Mr Kibaki won the election.
Marwan Muasher, head of external relations at the bank, said: "The bank does not take political positions. Neither Colin Bruce nor the bank has a position on Kibaki or [opposition leader Raila] Odinga."
Separately, Kenya's opposition ODM yesterday called for the withdrawal of Mr Bruce.
After the Oil-for-Food scheme, is anything outside of the realm of possibility for the UN? Oh, this is some intriguing stuff, but more research is in order. In the meantime, break out the conspiracy theories!
I think I need a 'WTF' category.
For all previous Kenya coverage, click on the 'Africa' category.

Read Sal Brinton's letter to the Chief Executive of ITV
Dear Dame Carolyn
I am extremely disappointed that ITV are planning to exclude the Liberal Democrats from your General Election debate on 19th November.
Corbyn and Johnson both are pursuing Brexit and represent the two tired establishment parties. A debate between just them offers no real alternative and stifles the conversation.
The voters of this country deserve to hear from a Remainer on the debate stage, not just from the two men who want to deliver Brexit
The voters of this country deserve to hear from a Remainer on the debate stage, not just from the two men who want to deliver Brexit. They deserve to know that there is another way. That there is a Party they can vote for who will offer a real alternative. That the Liberal Democrats will stop Brexit and build a brighter future.
There is no reasonable justification for excluding Liberal Democrats from the debate. Liberal Democrats are the strongest national Party of Remain. We secured more votes than both Labour and the Conservatives in the European elections earlier this year and have enjoyed fantastic local and byelection successes across the country. We no longer live in a two-party system, as polling for the last six months demonstrates, and the media should keep up. We have a hung Parliament and the Liberal Democrats are polling very close to, and sometimes ahead of, the Labour Party. Failing to have Liberal Democrats in the debate is misrepresenting the current political reality.
As you will know, section 6.2 of the Ofcom Broadcasting Code states that "due weight must be given to the coverage of parties and independent candidates during the election period" and "broadcasters must take into account evidence of past electoral support and/or current support". Crucially, candidates with "significant views and perspectives" should receive appropriate coverage; with Brexit a key issue in this election and our recent electoral successes the Liberal Democrats clearly deserve equal treatment.
Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn are running scared of debating Jo Swinson and broadcasters shouldn't help them stitch up the debates
Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn are running scared of debating Jo Swinson and broadcasters shouldn't help them stitch up the debates. The importance of representation cannot be underestimated. I want women and girls watching to see Jo Swinson in the debate and know that they too could be a candidate for Prime Minister. That women's voices are vital in politics. That our politics is so much poorer without them. We have seen an exodus of women from politics in the run up to this election. I want to do everything in my power to end this. I'm urging you to do the same.
Please, ensure that there is a plurality of voices in the debate, ensure that the biggest Remain Party is represented, ensure that Jo Swinson is up on the debate stage with Corbyn and Johnson.
Sal Brinton
President of the Liberal Democrats

Seoul is one of the most dynamic and exciting cities in Asia to visit. For the food lovers, the variety of delicious food is endless. Whether it's fried, steamed, boiled, or grilled, Korean food promises a fresh flavor with a kick of spice and some asian savory goodness. When I hear my stomach grumble, I find myself thinking of the the endless array of street food in Myeongdong Shopping Street.
Korean restaurants are great to go to as well, as they'll surprise you with all the small side platters that is accompanied by your order. However, there is an instant gratification that comes with sampling delicious bite sized snacks that's made right before your eyes from the street food vendors.
One of the most popular and beloved spicy on the go snacks you'll find in South Korea. Tteokbokki is made up of thinly sliced rice cakes drowning in sweet, chili lava (like molten hot)! It's very chewy, unless you're biting a different texture, which in that case, would be fish cake or hard boiled eggs. I would advise not to wear a white shirt when eating this, unless you're an expert at using toothpicks as a utensil!
Whether it be Winter or Spring, I always enjoy the sweet smell of freshly roasted chestnuts. It's naturally sweet, flavorful, and a bag of this would keep your hands warm in the Winter time. It's also rich in vitamin c and calcium as well! Ready to eat, and easy to peel, it's not only a typical street snack you'll find in South Korea, but also in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and different parts of Europe.
Hwaeori-gamja, meaning potato tornado, is a deep-fried spiral cut potato swirled around a stick. It not only looks cool, it also keeps your fingers from getting greasy. Fresh from the fryer as well so that it stays crispy and hot! There's also some awesome seasonings that goes on it such as: sour cream and onion, curry spicy, and bbq. A much better upgrade from your regular french fries with ketchup! If you're easily amused as I am, lookout for the potato tornado wrapped around a hot dog as a popular snack too. You'll never look at an American hot dog w/ fries again.
Mayak Gimbap is like Korean narcotic sushi. Mayak translates to narcotic drugs, but it's not what you think. It's just a popular dish that Koreans are addicted to. You'll find people waiting in line ordering dozens to take home to share with their friends and family! What makes gimbap different from sushi is that the meat is cooked, and there's no raw fish in it. You'll typically find ham, anchovies, pork, tuna as the filling, mixed with some veggies, like carrots, daikon, cucumbers and kimchi. Moreover, the rice is mixed with sesame seeds and sesame oil instead of rice vinegar. It gets me wondering now….which was created first: Gimbap or Sushi?
Like kimchi, but not quite, squid is all the rage for Koreans and I kind of think they can't live months without it. They even eat it as a bar snack that supposedly goes perfectly well with cold beer. Dried or fried, Ojingeo Twigim is something that you can't miss on the street…because of the smell….and also because it's presented as a giant fried squid lollipop or boquet. I stuffed my face with street food for a a good few days in Seoul, yet the fried squid was still bigger than my face. If I had to choose between fried chicken knuckles in China or king sized squid in Seoul as a bar snack to go with my beer, I would pick this one.
There are so many food vendors catering to every palate and pocket on Myeongdong Shopping street. If you ever find yourself in Seoul, consider exploring this adventurous foodie heaven, best enjoyed on the streets!


I had a deep share on Lauren Galey's Healing Conversations last week. I discussed the parallels between our journey and the Mystery schools; a cosmic template for a spiritual curriculum. Our broadcast time was limited for large topic, however the strongest parallels were covered, as well as Equinox predictions and a question about the Corey Good material.
The intel over the last decade shows us the progression, templates, initiations at each levels attained, and the neutrality we embody in order to experience the higher realms. Recently the intel advised facing fears of transformation, our higher choices during the August trigger, our pure intention, divine delineation, all of it leading to this transformational tipping point in our Ascension. The energy now carries us – if willing – to the Mastery of cosmic union.
Ascension Path participants, our monthly call is next Wednesday, September 2 at 6pmPT. Blessings upon all of us!
