Ares' daughter, Harmonia, chose to help Diana, however. She gave her a powerful amulet with the power to transport across dimensions. Diana slew Deimos with her razor sharp tiara, and from him acquired the other half of Harmonia's amulet. Finally, Ares stepped in to claim the talisman, but Diana bound him with her lasso of truth. He realized that to allow humans to war would leave no kingdom for him to rule. In failure, Ares declared that he would no longer trifle with the affairs of man, and also forbade his offspring from appearing on Earth. He also took the amulet and all the power which had been collected therein.[6]
The Diana Prince alias also played an important role after the events of Infinite Crisis. Wonder Woman was broadcast worldwide killing a villain named Maxwell Lord, as he was mind controlling Superman into killing Batman. When Wonder Woman caught him in her lasso, demanding to know how to stop Superman, Maxwell revealed that the only way to stop him was to kill Lord, so as a last resort Diana snapped his neck.[63][64] To recover from the trauma of killing another person, the Amazon went into a self-imposed exile for one year.[65] On her return to public life, Diana realized that her life as a full-time celebrity superhero and ambassador had kept her removed from humanity. Because of this she assumed the persona of Diana Prince and became an agent at the Department of Metahuman Affairs. During a later battle with the witch Circe, a spell was placed on Diana leaving her powerless when not in the guise of Wonder Woman.[66]

Upon their arrival, the Dark Gods waste no time in making their presence felt. Right off the bat, we see Cheetah snap out of her slumber in a daze of rage, swearing off Urzkartaga, the god she once worshiped and now hates. Unable to be contained or controlled, she lashes out at anyone who stands in her way, making them pay with their blood. As she does so, she warns that new, dark gods are coming, and she needs to purge her connection to Urzkartaga in order to face them.
Chris Pine was cast as Steve Trevor,[21][114] a character he described as a "rogue-ish, cynical realist who's seen the awful brutish nature of modern civilization" and added that he is a "worldly guy, a charming guy".[115] He signed a multi-picture deal.[21] Lucy Davis' performance as Etta Candy is the first live-action cinematic portrayal of the character.[116] As well, Elena Anaya's performance as Doctor Poison is the cinematic debut of that character. Nicole Kidman was in negotiations for the role of Queen Hippolyta, but was forced to drop out due to scheduling conflicts with Big Little Lies.[117][118]
Wonder Woman made her debut in All-Star Comics at the end of 1941 and on the cover of a new comic book, Sensation Comics, at the beginning of 1942, drawn by an artist named Harry G. Peter. She wore a golden tiara, a red bustier, blue underpants and knee-high, red leather boots. She was a little slinky; she was very kinky. She'd left Paradise to fight fascism with feminism, in "America, the last citadel of democracy, and of equal rights for women!"
Voiced by Susan Eisenberg. Justice League Doomed is a animated movie based on the story ''Tower of Bable''. Mirror Master hacks into the computers of the Batcave by the order of Vandal Savage. Vandal Savage calls in one enemy of each of the JLA'ers, and he calls in Cheetah for Wonder Woman. Cheetah fights against Wonder Woman and injects her with a toxin which makes her see that everyone is Cheetah. It was later revealed that this toxin was a contingency for Wonder Woman made by Batman in case she goes rogue, as he did for the rest of the Justice League with different plans for each.
Although the exact amount that Jenkins will receive for Wonder Woman 2 is unknown, her contract will include writing, directing, and producing credits along with a "substantial backend of box office grosses," making her the highest-paid female director in Hollywood. Jenkins presumably had a lot more leverage at the negotiating table following Wonder Woman's massive success.
At the end of Infinite Crisis, Wonder Woman temporarily retires from her costumed identity. Diana, once again using the alias Diana Prince, joins the Department of Metahuman Affairs. Donna Troy becomes the new Wonder Woman and is captured by Diana's enemies. Diana then goes on a mission to rescue her sister, battling Circe and Hercules. Diana defeats the villains, freeing Donna and takes up the role of Wonder Woman again. Circe places a spell on Diana, which renders Diana into a normal, powerless human being when in the role of Diana Prince; her powers come to her only when she is in the role of Wonder Woman.[116][117][118][119][120]
Marston was sure he knew what line not to cross. Harmless erotic fantasies are terrific, he said. "It's the lousy ones you have to look out for—the harmful, destructive, morbid erotic fixations—real sadism, killing, blood-letting, torturing where the pleasure is in the victim's actual pain, etc. Those are 100 per cent bad and I won't have any part of them." He added, in closing, "Please thank Miss Roubicek for the list of menaces."

In 1954, Dr. Fredric Wertham alleged that there were lesbian subtexts to Wonder Woman and claimed comics contributed to juvenile delinquency in his book Seduction of the Innocent where despite a very obvious heterosexual relationship with Steve Trevor, Wertham asserted that Wonder Woman's association with the Holliday Girls could be interpreted as a lesbian relationship. The Comics Code Authority was then introduced in reaction to Wertham 's claims against the entire industry.
Invisible Plane: Wonder Woman possesses an airplane capable of rendering itself completely invisible to the human eye. Like her bracelets, Diana's invisible plane is forged with Eighth Metal, making it almost indestructible.[115] The Invisible Plane was originally the aircraft Steve Trevor crashed onto Themyscira; it was repaired by the Amazons and upgraded with their technology.[116][117]
After the 2011 relaunch, Diana gained new powers. These new abilities, which included superhuman speed, durability, immortality, accelerated healing, and even flight came in addition to her previous attributed Olympian strength. She is now considered to be stronger than Hercules. In addition to her weaponry, Diana's bracelets can now create an thunderous explosion when she clashes them together. These new abilities are attributed to being the daughter of Hippolyta and Zeus. Her powers are now considered nearly unmeasurable if she goes without her Bracelets of Submission, which keep her powers in check. She uses these powers in battle against the goddess Artemis and quickly renders her unconscious with ease with a series of carefully positioned counterattacks. While using her godly strength, her outfit and accoutrements lit up and her eyes glowed like her father's.[185][189][better source needed][190]
The I Ching era had an influence on the 1974 Wonder Woman TV movie featuring Cathy Lee Crosby, in which Wonder Woman was portrayed as a non-superpowered globe-trotting super-spy who wore an amalgam of the Wonder Woman and Diana Prince costumes. The first two issues of Allan Heinberg's run (Wonder Woman vol. 3, #1–2) include direct references to I Ching, and feature Diana wearing an outfit similar to that which she wore during the I Ching era.[9]
Hermes attacked Wonder Woman there, refusing to simply give up the child, but during their battle, War ripped the baby from Demeter's womb and disappeared. Unable to let a grave wound such as that go unattended, Diana saw to Demeter first, and the goddess warned that War could not be trusted. Worriedly, Diana and Orion returned to Manhattan to find that War had returned the baby to Zola. At last, the baby and his mother were reunited - and Orion would not have to look any further for the child he needed to kill.[31]
With the appearance of the Bana-Mighdallian Amazons, the Olympians faced a new prospect. Though devout Amazons, these newest citizens of Themyscira do not worship the Greek gods. Renouncing them millennia ago, the tribe instead worship a combination of Egyptian and middle eastern deities. The central gods worshipped by the desert Amazons are: Isis (wisdom and magic), Mammitu (judgement bringer), Bast (nature and feminine), and Neith (mother figure and protection). These gods followed the Bana-Mighdallian Amazons to Themyscira where they continued to be worshipped. Facing the situation with hands tied, both pantheons agreed to integrate themselves with each other for the benefit of their people. Though these new gods do not reside on Olympus, they are treated with diplomacy when called to aid the Amazons in a united godly role. Despite the gods mentioned being part of the inner-circle of deities in the Bana's belief system, less significant gods have been shown to be part of their godly pantheon as well such as Sekhmet (war god), Thoth (their only known male god) and possibly Ishtar (love goddess). The gods of Bana-Mighdall proved their loyalty to the Olympians by aiding the Greek gods in battle when the war gods Sekhmet and Ares previously devised a coup on Olympus.
Following Crisis on Infinite Earths, Wonder Woman was rebooted in 1987, by writer Greg Potter, who previously created the Jemm, Son of Saturn series for DC, was hired to rework the character. He spent several months working with editor Janice Race[28] on new concepts, before being joined by writer/artist George Pérez.[29] Inspired by John Byrne and Frank Miller's work on refashioning Superman and Batman, Pérez came in as the plotter and penciler of Wonder Woman.[30] Potter dropped out of writing the series after issue #2,[31][32] and Pérez became the sole plotter. Initially, Len Wein replaced Potter but Pérez took on the scripting as of issue #18. Mindy Newell would return to the title as scripter with issue #36 (November 1989).[33] Pérez produced 62 issues of the rebooted title. His relaunch of the character was a critical and sales success.[34]
The costs for television advertisements for Wonder Woman are higher in comparison to that of previous DCEU film Suicide Squad. Warner Bros. has spent over $3 million on advertisements for Wonder Woman, whereas they spent $2.6 million on advertisements for Suicide Squad.[157] Ticket selling site Fandango reported that Wonder Woman rounded the final leg of its marketing campaign as the most anticipated blockbuster of summer 2017, according to a poll conducted by 10,000 voters, the biggest survey in company history.[158] Separately, Fandango also found that 92% of people surveyed said that they are looking forward to seeing a film that features a standalone woman superhero, and 87% wished Hollywood would make more women-led superhero films.[159] In May 2017, NASCAR driver Danica Patrick drove her No. 10 car with a Wonder Woman paint scheme at the Go Bowling 400 in Kansas and at the Monster Energy Open in Charlotte.[160]
Arriving at Chernobyl, Wonder Woman, Orion, Siracca and Hermes engaged Cassandra's forces to save Milan. Cassandra threatened to kill Milan if Wonder Woman did not reveal the First Born's location. Wonder Woman told her the First Born was in Olympus, but as she left, Cassandra strapped a bomb to Milan's chest. To contain the explosion, Orion took Milan through a boom tube. Returning home, Wonder Woman discovered Zola and Zeke had left, as Zola felt guilty that people were risking their lives to protect them.[39]

In February 1941, Marston submitted a draft of his first script, explaining the "under-meaning" of Wonder Woman's Amazonian origins in ancient Greece, where men had kept women in chains, until they broke free and escaped. "The NEW WOMEN thus freed and strengthened by supporting themselves (on Paradise Island) developed enormous physical and mental power." His comic, he said, was meant to chronicle "a great movement now under way—the growth in the power of women."
Wonder Woman is trained in the a variety of martial arts, making her a master of unarmed and armed combat (even proving adept with pistols). Before Flashpoint Batman considered Diana the best melee fighter on the planet, even putting her ahead of Superman, due to the combination of her power and the depth of her training. Even when depowered, she is on par with some of the best hand-to-hand combatants in the DC Universe.
Her outfit did not receive any prominent change until after the 2005–2006 Infinite Crisis storyline. Similar to her chestplate, her glowing belt was also shaped into a "W".[194] This outfit continued until issue #600 – J. Michael Straczynski's run of Wonder Woman's altered timeline changed her outfit drastically. Her outfit was redesigned by Jim Lee and included a redesigned emblem, a golden and red top, black pants, and a later discontinued blue-black jacket.[194]
When Marston died in 1947 Robert Kanigher took over and Diana became less of a feminist character but during this time, her abilities expanded as she wore earrings that provided her with the air she needed when she was in outer space and she had an invisible plane. Extra additions included a tiara which could cut through almost anything and acted as a boomerang and her bracelets now had two way radios.
Wonder Woman was created by the American psychologist and writer William Moulton Marston (pen name: Charles Moulton),[2] and artist Harry G. Peter. Marston's wife, Elizabeth, and their life partner, Olive Byrne,[5] are credited as being his inspiration for the character's appearance.[2][6][7][8][9] Marston's comics featured his ideas on DISC theory,[10] and the character drew a great deal of inspiration from early feminists, and especially from birth control pioneer Margaret Sanger; in particular, her piece "Woman and the New Race".
Ares told Diana that he had been imprisoned by the other Gods of Olympus and bound in chains that were secured by Aphrodite through the power of her love. He also told her that years ago, Phobos and Deimos had implanted false memories of Themyscira into her mind, and these had caused her to imagine aspects of her past that had never happened in reality. Meanwhile, Phobos and Deimos entered Themyscira and battled with the Amazons. Diana knew what she had to do, and called Ares to unite her with Phobos and Deimos. He teleported them to her, and using her Lasso of Truth, Wonder Woman bound them through the power of her unconditional love for them, as Aphrodite had done to Ares. With the twin gods defeated, Diana attempted to leave Ares' prison along with Veronica and Izzy, however Izzy's essence had been attached to the realm and could not return to Earth. Izzy was forced to either live out the rest of her days in the prison or live in Themyscira as an Amazon for eternity. She chose the latter and Veronica said goodbye to her daughter. Diana was briefly reunited with her mother, for the first time since she left the island.[8]
Diana meets Barbara Ann Minerva for the first time. Minerva wants Diana's lasso and tricks Diana into believing that she has Antiope's Girdle of Gaea. Diana discovers the ruse and storms out of the house. Barbara transforms into the Cheetah and attacks Diana. Julia Kapatelis shoots Cheetah and fends her off. Diana returns to Themyscira. Zeus is infatuated with Diana and asks her for a physical communion to which Diana refuses. Angered, Zeus sends her on a mission, a "Challenge
In an October 25, 1940, interview with the Family Circle magazine, William Moulton Marston discussed the unfulfilled potential of the comic book medium.[19] This article caught the attention of comics publisher Max Gaines, who hired Marston as an educational consultant for National Periodicals and All-American Publications, two of the companies that would merge to form DC Comics.[20] At that time, Marston wanted to create his own new superhero; Marston's wife and fellow psychologist Elizabeth suggested to him that it should be a woman:[21]

A day before Whedon's departure from Wonder Woman, Warner Bros. and Silver Pictures purchased a spec script for the film written by Matthew Jennison and Brent Strickland. Set during World War II, the script impressed executives at Silver Pictures.[77] However, Silver stated that he had purchased the script because he did not want the rights reverting; while stating the script had good ideas, Silver did not want the film to be a period piece.[81] By April 2008, Silver hired Jennison and Strickland to write a new script set in contemporary times that would not depict Wonder Woman's origin, but explore Paradise Island's history.[82]
In the Golden Age, Wonder Woman adhered to an Amazon code of helping any in need, even misogynistic people, and never accepting a reward for saving someone;[74] while conversely, the modern version of the character has been shown to perform lethal and fatal actions when left with no other alternative, exemplified in the killing of Maxwell Lord in order to save Superman's life.[63][64]
Marston's sexual fantasies, or an outlet for readers of the comics, who were teenagers developing their sexuality. Marston had worked as a prison psychologist and bondage and submission were two themes of his comics and they were intertwined with theories of the rehabilitation of criminals. Wonder Woman of course, being a superhero wanted to change the ways of the criminals. Even a rehabilitation center was built on a small island near concept of Marston was the "loving submission" where kindness would allow people to surrender. Parodies have been written with this concept, as male criminals may give up only to spend time with her.

Shortly thereafter, Wonder Woman is shown being able to summon it with her tiara, have it hover by the War Department, and extend from it a rope ladder with which she could board it. She uses the plane to fly into outer space, and frequently transports Etta Candy and the Holliday Girls, Steve Trevor, and others. During the 1950s, the plane becomes a jet, and is often shown swooping over Lt. Prince's office; she strips out of her uniform at super speed and bounds to the plane. Though the Plane was depicted as semi-transparent for the reader's convenience, in-story dialogue indicated that it actually was completely invisible, or at least able to become so as the need arose.[199]
The Gods, led by Athena, create the Amazons in Greece to realize their ideals and bring humans into following them. The leader of the Amazons, Hippolyta feels a yearning for a child). She makes a clay form of a child and prays to the Gods. Hearing this the Gods give the clay form, transforming it into a live child blessed with Gaea's gift, life. The Gods grant her various abilities and she grows up as Diana of Themyscira.
^ Sanderson, Peter (September–October 1981). "Thomas/Colan Premiere Wonder Woman's New Look". Comics Feature. New Media Publishing (12/13): 23. The hotly-debated new Wonder Woman uniform will be bestowed on the Amazon Princess in her first adventure written and drawn by her new creative team: Roy Thomas and Gene Colan...This story will appear as an insert in DC Comics Presents #41.
The most recent version of the character's origin (since the new 52) has not yet been told in totality, but certain things are known. It has been revealed how the Amazons replenish their numbers (they do so by kidnapping sailors and using them for procreation before killing them) as well as the fact of Wonder Woman's divine lineage. Despite the fact that Zeus is her father it does not necessarily remove other facts about her origin from canon (for instance the blessings of the gods) though it remains to be seen how or if this will be incorporated into the ongoing stories. In the Zero month of the new 52 in which DC was planning to tell the origins of the character from the new 52, the story for Diana focused on the fact that she had been trained by Ares when she was a teenager though she eventually rebelled against him. It is as of yet unclear how this factors into her new origin. When Diana first came to Man's World she encountered a group attacking the Pentagon. Because of this she befriended Barbara Minerva who was working there on ancient antiquities and Barbara helped her acclimatize to Man's World.
Wonder Woman was taken to Zamaron where the Star Sapphires informed her that a Dark God had taken hold there, too. Diana fought the newly-emerged Karnell, Dark God of Love, who informed Diana that he and his brethren had come from the Dark Multiverse, which the Justice League had recently encountered. When Diana wore the Tenth Metal during the climax of the Justice League's battle with Barbatos, Diana had wished for the gods' return. Though she had meant the Gods of Olympus, the Dark Multiverse's gods were chosen instead, and thus she had unintentionally caused their invasion. Together with the Star Sapphire Corps, Wonder Woman was able to defeat Karnell, who retreated back to Earth. Wonder Woman left the Corps and returned home.[102] In her absence, Jason had united with the Justice League and fought the Dark Gods, who had plunged Earth into chaos. Suddenly, the Dark Gods disappeared, only for them to return with Jason at their side.[103] Jason fought Wonder Woman, but after he led her away from the Dark Gods, he revealed that he was using his armor to channel the power of Dolos, God of Deception, and was in fact deceiving the Dark Gods. Using the wisdom of Athena, Jason developed a plan to convince the Dark Gods to retreat back to their reality. He offered himself, along with the power of the Greek Pantheon, in exchange for the Dark Gods leaving Earth. The Dark Gods accepted the proposal and Diana tearfully said goodbye to her brother, who was taken with them to the Dark Multiverse. The planet was saved and its people returned to normal, but Diana was distraught over the loss of her brother.[104]
Wonder Woman had its world premiere on May 15, 2017, in Shanghai. It premiered on May 25, 2017, in Los Angeles.[146] The film's London premiere, which was scheduled to take place on May 31 at the Odeon Leicester Square, was cancelled due to the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing.[147] The film had its Latin America premiere in Mexico City on May 27. It was released in most of the world, including in IMAX,[148] on June 2, 2017, after originally being scheduled for June 23.[149][150] Belgium, Singapore and South Korea received the film first, with May 31 openings.[151][152][153] On April 17, it was announced that Wonder Woman would be released in China on June 2, the same day as its North American release.[154]
While the story is very flawed, the art of this arc has been fantastic, and this issue is no exception. Jesús Merino continues to show off his mastery as an illustrator with the battle against King Best. The design of the leader of the Dark Gods is terrific, and the Amazon twins have never looked better. Jason, in particular, looks great as the details in his powers make him appear more powerful than ever. Even if next issue falls apart, I do not doubt that the art will still go above and beyond.
As one of the longest continually published comic book characters, Wonder Woman's history has undergone some changes over the years, though a few elements remain consistent in all of her depictions. She is the princess of the Amazons, a race of women who live free of men on Paradise Island (later dubbed Themyscira). After growing up on this island, Wonder Woman (whom her mother named Diana) journeys to Man's World on a mission of diplomacy, peace, and love.
In the Silver Age, Wonder Woman's history received several changes. Her earlier origin, which had significant ties to World War II, was changed and her powers were shown to be the product of the gods' blessings, corresponding to her epithet, "beautiful as Aphrodite, wise as Athena, stronger than Hercules, and swifter than Hermes".[34][90] The concepts of Wonder Girl and Wonder Tot were also introduced during this period.[91]
Wonder Woman was now a princess and emissary from Paradise Island (called Themyscira) to Patriarch's world. She possessed stunning beauty and a loving heart, gifts from the goddess Aphrodite. From Athena, she received the gift of great wisdom; from Demeter, the power and strength of the earth; from Hestia, sisterhood with fire; and from Artemis, unity with beasts and the instincts and prowess of a hunter. Finally, Diana received the gift of speed and the power of flight from the god Hermes.[9]
With Artemis' help, Wonder Woman tracked Zola down to a subway station, where they found a lock of fox fur. Realizing that Zola was with Dionysus, they went to Providence, where Dionysus was currently located. They found Dionysus captured by Cassandra's minion, the Minotaur. When Cassandra's forces were about to depart to Olympus, Wonder Woman ambushed them and hung onto their plane. When the jet arrived to Olympus, the mountain was hit by a massive explosion.[41]
After Jimenez, Walt Simonson wrote a six-issue homage to the I Ching era, in which Diana temporarily loses her powers and adopts an all-white costume (Wonder Woman vol. 2, #189–194). Greg Rucka became writer with issue #195. His initial story arc centered upon Diana's authorship of a controversial book and included a political subtext. Rucka introduced a new recurring villain, ruthless businesswoman Veronica Cale, who uses media manipulation to try to discredit Diana. Rucka modernized the Greek and Egyptian gods, updating the toga-wearing deities to provide them with briefcases, laptop computers, designer clothing, and modern hairstyles. Rucka dethroned Zeus and Hades, who were unable to move with the times as the other gods had, replacing them with Athena and Ares as new rulers of the gods and the underworld. Athena selected Diana to be her personal champion.[9]
Zeus has made a woman called Zola pregnant. Hera, due to this, is furious. She sets out to kill Zola, but Hermes finds her first, only to find out that Zola does not want to come with Hermes. Zola opens the door, and an arrow is shot at her direction; Hermes pushes her away in time, and gives her a key, as assassins sent by Hera and it teleports to Wonder Woman's apartment, because Hermes enlisted Wonder Woman to protect Zola. Zola gives Wonder Woman the key, and it teleports both Wonder Woman and Zola back to Zola's house. After Zola finds out that she is pregnant with Zeus, it gets revealed that one of Zeus' children is going to take his place, by Zeus' own will. Wonder Woman takes Zola, along with Hermes, to Themiscyra where Diana explains to her Mother, Queen Hippolyta, why she took with herself Zola and Hermes to Themiscyra. Alongside all of this, Hippolyta tells Diana about her true origins; that her real father is Zeus. Diana's reaction to this isn't very well, so she decides to abandon Themiscyra. Hera is aware of the fact that Wonder Woman is Zeus' daughter, and she arrives to Themiscyra, furiously. Wonder Woman realized she did a mistake by leaving her home, so she went back to Themiscyra where she sees that everyone has been turned into snakes by Hera, except for Hippolyta, she was turned into stone. Apollo arrives in a bar searching for War (Ares), and explains to him that Zeus doesn't even exist from what he's sources says. Apollo takes this as his chance to become the king of Olympus and the Gods.

The History of the 630th Military Police Company in Vietnam (1965 to 1972)
Reported as the Single Largest Military Police Company in
the Republic of Vietnam; Spread Over Hundreds of Miles Covering II Corps Area of Operation:
Cam Ranh Bay, Phan Thiet
Phan Rang, Dalat
Ba Loc - Goodview Pass (Ant Hill)
The 630th Military Police Company was reactivated on 25 June 1965 at Fort Riley, Kansas. Men were shipped from all Army posts in the area bringing the company to full strength in a period of two weeks. On 23 August 1965 members of the reactivated company departed Fort Riley for Oakland, embarked on the U.S.S. General J.A. Breckenridge for the Republic of Vietnam. The company arrived at Cam Ranh Bay 15 September 1965 and immediately assumed their mission of harbor security. On 27 October 1965 the 630th MP Company was reorganized under TO&E 19-57F (Escort Guard Company).
The mission, constantly changing, was changed to primarily to the security of Cam Ranh Bay with supplementary missions of highway patrol and convoy escort duty. Included in the mission of security to Cam Ranh Bay was the duty of escorting distinguished visitors in the Cam Ranh Bay area. The 630th MP Co. also processed POWs from the MR II South area of operations. A PW collection point was located in the rear of the company area to aid in quick processing of the POWs. The company participated with the joint police forces of the area in the role of counter-insurgency. Operations termed Reconnaissance Type Ambush were conducted in key areas around the Cam Ranh Bay peninsula.
December 1967 saw yet another mission added to the former missions, that of pier security and custom inspection. The company began deploying small squads of men to outlaying areas in the II Corps South operational zone, thus providing further on the spot police support. June 1969 saw the receipt of the XM-701 Armored Car. Crews were trained and cross trained in all facets of the armored cars to assist them in their convoy escort missions. Convoys were escorted throughout the MR II to include a five day convoy into Cambodia. The MPs of the company participated directly in action to counter enemy ground attacks throughout the II Corps Tactical Zone (South) by manning bunkers and providing ready reaction forces. September 1970 saw the 630th MP Company participating in the first airmobile Military Police operation in Vietnam. Members of the 630th were utilized in the 97th MP Battalion Operation ADIOS (Air Detection and Identification of Speeders). Operation Lam San 719 saw members of the 1st platoon, 603th MP Company being relocated north to assist A Company 504th MP Battalion in providing traffic control on Highway QL-1 and Police support to Nha San and He. September 1971 saw another airlifting of Military Police from the 630th, this time to Whiskey Mountain. The MPs arrived, apprehending fourteen men who were armed and barricaded in a bunker. The individuals were quickly searched and escorted by Chinook helicopter to Long Binh Stockade. October 1972 brought forth yet another similar operation; however, this was to Praline Mountain near DaLat. The Praline Mountain operation was prompted by two fragmentation grenade incidents on two consecutive nights. Numerous raids, at the request of the Deputy Post Commander, were conducted on units on the Cam Ranh Bay peninsula resulting in large quantities of confiscated contraband items. The troop cutbacks and the withdrawals affected the 630th Military police Company resulting in the closing out of the outlying detachments, centralizing the company members once again in Cam Ranh Bay
The members of the 630th Military Police Company were not only employed in fighting the enemy. Members of the unit participated in numerous Civic Action programs. Two Military Policeman in the DaLat detachment spent their off duty-time teaching English to Vietnamese children in the Saint Merias School. The Christmas spirit was displayed by all members of the company, donating toys and food to the Ba Ngoi Orphanage. During off-duty time the Military Policeman from the company built a playground for the orphanage using materials they gathered. Throughout its service in the Republic of Vietnam, the 630th Military Police Company and its members upheld the motto, Of the Troops and For the Troops.
Chronological Events
The 630th Military Police Company was reactivated at Fort Riley, Kansas (General Order #113), Headquarters, Fifth US Army; General Order #265, Headquarters, Fort Riley Kansas). To bring the company to its full strength of one hundred and thirty eight, men were shipped in from surrounding Army installations in the Fifth Army area and also from Fort Riley. In less than two weeks, the entire compliment of men and officers were together at Fort Riley.
Moving Order #23 was published and sent to the 630th Headquarters. The men would be leaving Fort Riley on 23 August 1965, traveling by plane to Oakland, California and embarking on the U.S.S. General J.A. Breckenridge.
The 630th Military Police Company was taken from the ship, transported to an inland area on Cam Ranh Bay and was ordered to make camp. Their mission became harbor security. Within twenty four hours after their arrival in Cam Ranh Bay, the company was completely operational with a compliment of men performing twenty four hour guard duty on the cargo ships anchored in the bay. Without any vehicles or equipment (except for MP duffel bags) the company became an efficient working force accomplishing their mission in the best Military Police tradition. As days passed into weeks, and the weeks into months, the company fell into the normal routine functions. Working with a detachment from A Company, 504th MP Battalion, the 630th took on additional responsibility of law and order for the entire Cam Ranh Bay area.
The 97th Military Police Battalion Motto Take Charge was approved by the U.S. Army.
The 218th Military Police Company arrives in Cam Ranh Bay to join the 97th MP Battalion. The arrival of the 218th MP Co. saw the 630th split duties with the 218th. The 218th became the primary convoy escort company. The 218th assumed most of the law enforcement duties on Cam Ranh Bay. The 630th continued to provide port security both on the land and water.
The Department of the Army approves the 97th Battalion Distinguished Unit Insignia.
In the role of police counter-insurgency the company participated with the Air Police, United States Navy, and the Vietnamese National Police, in two raids on the Cam Ranh Division of the RMK-BRJ Corporation. The first in July 1966 resulted in 38 individuals whose identity could not be established. The second, in September 1966, resulted in 23 individuals.
The 18th Military Police Brigade becomes operational. The Brigade takes control of all non divisional Military Police companies.

The Company, well into it second year of service in Vietnam, had, as its primary mission, the security of Cam Ranh Bay. Supplementary mission had also been undertaken by the company to include highway patrol and convoy escort duty. The escort duty took members of the company over disputed highways to insure the timely and safe arrival of supplies to combat units in the II Corps area.
During the months of September, October, and November, 1966, the 630th participated in many operations best termed Reconnaissance Type Ambush. The nature of these operations lies in the disposition of six to twelve men in key areas around the Cam Ranh peninsula to determine possible routes of enemy infiltrators. Most valuable information was gained through these operations and it is believed that they have discouraged to large degree enemy sabotage at Cam Ranh Bay.
Pier security consists of controlled access to the pier, hatch guards to prevent pilferage, fantail guards, and the control tower. Located 50 meters out from pier 3, the Military Police Harbor Control Tower is net control for all fantail guards and controls the movement of Vietnamese tugs and junks that may approach the pier area. The final phase of harbor security consists of a two man patrol that roves the inner and outer harbor aboard an amphibious craft (LARC) covering all water approaches to the pier area.

At approximately 1400 hours information was received from intelligence sources that a large enemy force was expected to move on the City of Nha Trang later that night. This information was apparently received from a reliable source in or near the City Nha Trang. During the afternoon and evening of 29 January 1968, elements of the enemy force apparently infiltrated into the City, but no action was observed through 2400 hours that day. At approximately 0100 hours 30 January 1968, the central Canh Sat headquarters located in Canh Sat Circle in downtown Nha Trang was taken under fire by an undetermined number of enemies.

At approximately 1230 hours a platoon of Military Police from the 218th MP Co., Cam Ranh Bay, arrived on orders from the 16th MP Gp., to reinforce the MP units already in Nha Trang. This platoon was met at the air base and given transportation to Camp McDermott, at which time they were billeted in the transient barracks operated by the 54th Supply Company. For the remainder of the day until 1800 hours sporadic sniper fire was reported throughout the city, and was responded to by various MP units.
At 1800 hours 30 January 1968, 20 personnel from the 2nd platoon, 218th MP Co., were sent to the PMO to provide security. An additional 10 personnel were sent to the King Duy Tan Hotel as security.

At approximately 0130 hours, Military Policemen heard gun fire coming from the rear of their villa. All personnel assumed defensive positions and at 0200 hours they were attacked by an estimated company of Viet Cong. SGT Corser, NCOIC of the detachment, called MACV to advise them they were under attack. He was informed that no assistance was available.

Another target of the TET Offensive of 1968 was Dalat. It was probably the scene of the heaviest fighting outside the Saigon area. Early in the morning on 31 January 1968 large size enemy forces began to attack Dalat. The Viet Cong soon controlled all the roads into the town. The MP Villa was demolished by mortar and rocket fire. Two MP were wounded and communications were lost within the city. A military reaction force extracted the MP from their villa. As heavy mortar fire continued in the city, MP who had relocated in a medical villa came under ground attack. On 3 February 1968, the MP personnel who had been driven from the villa returned to retrieve items of equipment. They were able to recover vehicles, radios, and records which they had abandoned during the initial attack. Again, they received a small arms attack but sustained no additional casualties. As the remaining activity in the area began to center on the Dalat airfield, the MP in the area responded to the crisis by providing reinforcements to friendly forces at that location. As fierce fighting continued on 3 February, the city of Dalat became the only critical area in the II Corps tactical zone. With the airfield under Viet Cong control, the local defending elements, particularly the MP, began to run low on ammunition. Ammunition resupply was completed by air. With an enemy battalion believed still to be in the city on 5 February 1968, additional MP replacements were flown into Dalat.

Using A Mental Health App? New Study Says Your Data May Be Shared
A sad face emoticon is seen on an iPhone in this photo illustration on May 25, 2018. (Photo by Jaap ... [+] Arriens/NurPhoto via Getty Images)NurPhoto via Getty Images If you're
among the nearly 36% of Americans who report symptoms of anxiety or depression, you may have used—or thought about using—a mental health app for support. But with thousands of
mental health smartphone apps on the large and growing market, you might wonder how good the apps actually are. And can you trust them? Despite many available options, new research
suggests that the market is not serving consumers optimally due to limited innovation, evidence-based interventions, and sound privacy controls. The new study published this week
in JAMA Network Open set out to systematically assess available mental health apps based on critical measures such as clinical validation and privacy practices. Researchers also
examined degrees of innovation and the association between app privacy measures and app popularity. Researchers analyzed 578 mental health-related apps across 105 dimensions, using
an app evaluation framework established by the American Psychiatric Association. The study only included apps that cost $10 or less to download and based evaluations on free, basic
versions of the apps or free trials, as well as app descriptions in the app store, rather than on in-app purchases or paid subscriptions to unlock the full set of features. Most
apps (88%) included in the study were free to download, but only 39% were completely free. Lack differentiation leads to missed opportunities The study revealed a lack of evidence
and innovation among the apps evaluated. Most of the apps are not based on clinical evidence, with just 15% of apps offering studies demonstrating their efficacy or feasibility.
Researchers did not evaluate the quality of the studies even where they were available. Additionally, there was little variation—or innovation—among apps studies. Most apps
shared similar features. The most common app features were psychoeducation (41%), goal setting (38%), and mindfulness (38%). Apps most commonly used user surveys (45%), diary
entries (34%), and microphones (21%) to gather inputs. Other top app features included mood and symptom tracking, journaling, and deep breathing. Most commonly, apps provided
notifications (68%), data summaries (61%), and information resources (50%). A small minority (15%) of apps collected passive data, such as biofeedback like step counts and heart
rates, or geolocation. "Most apps offer very basic symptom tracking, journaling, mindfulness exercises, or basic information about mental illnesses," said Dr. John Torous, MBI,

September 8: screening in Azerbaijan during international conference om POPs.
Vanavond vindt in het KBC-auditorium te Antwerpen de Belgische première plaats van Silent Snow, georganiseerd door ANPED en ARGUS.
Bovendien brengt poolreiziger Dixie Dancercoer als exclusieve smaakmaker voor deze filmvertoning een pakkend relaas van zijn expedities naar de poolgebieden.
After successful screenings in Nairobi, The Hague, Tallahassee, Key West FL and Geneva the Belgian premiere is planned for May 18, and almost sold out. See for reports and reviews, and for the location in Antwerp: www.silentsnow.org. Picture: discussing distribution with Andreas Schriber (BioVison), Jan van den Berg (drsFILM) and Michael Stanley-Jones (SafePlanet).
Op donderdag 28 april 2011 vanaf 18.20 uur zal "In het perspectief van Robbie Cornelissen", een korte film voor de serie 'Utrecht aan Zee', vertoond worden op stadszender U Stad –onderdeel van RTV Utrecht.
After a successful preview in Nairobi by UNEP the European premiere of Silent Snow will take place at the Movies that Matter Festival, in The Hague. First screening: Sunday March 27 at 7 PM in Theater aan het Spui.
It was quite an adventure: showing an unfinished version of Silent Snow to the UN. But when you get a last minute invitation to open a conference where top environment experts from all over the world get together to discuss the exact topic of our documentary, it's just an offer you can't refuse. So on February 19 – my birthday – I flew to Nairobi with some promotion material and a DVD with an uncorrected, and yet- to be mixed, version of the film.
Many people came to our basement at the Nieuwegracht in order to see a preview of the working copy of Jan van den Berg's new film Silent Snow. Not without reason, as it turned out to be an impressive evening. After Jan gave a brief introductory speech, we breathlessly watched a film that was both socially and environmentally critical and committed, while being esthetically dazzlingly beautiful and admirable.
We had slept in the most beautiful house I've ever seen, in the middle of a rainforest, surrounded by huge trees. Joep Merkx, a Dutch friend, had built it on a little place where he didn't have to cut any trees. There was no electricity. At night candles gave a fairytale light. At 4 o'clock monkeys started a kind of loud barking, very close. Every ten minutes new birds started their morning songs and I could see the monkeys, jumping from tree to tree. Viraj filmed nature shots from the balcony. See www.silentsnow.org.


@Humble, see you just confirmed what I was saying about JH. He had an outburst and now he is better. Show mercy on this young man. Jeeze.
Once again, Judge S. schools us and them. His patience has been tried repeatedly- surprised he remains so civil.
JH OUTBUST killed 12 people! are you kidding me?
Bet he & Brady are working on their presentation.
The whole time I have been watching I thought James Holmes was in an almost catatonic state. Today I see he's a completely different defendant. Very animated. My question...have they changed his meds...or has he been 'acting' this entire trial?
wow orman, you are something else.
Can someone tell me what AC is? Who?
@Suzi you stated exactly what I've been thinking. So sorry for your family member and what they suffered.
AC will knock the closing out of the ballpark! Can't wait!
let's start a petition to get judge Samour to the supreme court.
@ok The defendant will be shown more compassion and leaniancy then He ever showed the 12 people He killed.
I don't remember the judge ever losing patience when the jury is present - anyone else remember if he did?
Isn't it great how everywhere you look people are using Steve Jobs' creation, the iPad? He saw the vision and we didn't. Now it seems every courtroom and hospital uses iPads.
OKX- again JH did NOT have "an outburst", unless you define an outburst as being 6 months of careful planning of a crime.
I am not supportive of the death penalty, however I am very objective. I cannot understand why JH should be shown mercy when he showed absolutely no mercy on the day he decided to commit these atrocious murders. He knew the consequences of his actions and he needs to face the music (no pun intended).
Yeah, but Dr. Gur was nuts and couldn't document anything or base anything on tests or interview with the defendant!
@right, yes, but he is clearly sorry for what he did. he said that he cries himself to sleep most nights.
@nadine, dp is considered punishment----not justice justice is not cruel and deathly justice can only occur ( its a very when it occurs) with the chance to redeem oneself.
No, good morning to YOU, Phil!
Let's start a petition to get Judge Samour a cigar.
This judge has always had a beef about each side having five or six lawyers. And he never has patience for unorganized or inarticulate objections. He cares about his commitments to the jury.
20min break.....Judge taking his coffee with him.
From watching the activity in the courtroom, it is easy to infer that DB and Tish-Mc are dampening as much mitigation as possible and are very emotionally entrenched in obtaining the DP. They are more animated than in the past. Just thinking that they would be emotional if no DP is given.
Truly, I wanted to be able to see the progression of disease in JH, not because I wish it on him, but because it would help me understand a little about his actions. Yesterday just proved to me that JH didn't have a big shift in his personality, in his actions, etc. He seems to be an overindulged, intelligent young man whose life didn't go as he had planned. He was intelligent enough to research all these things and I know he was bright enough to convince those examiners. He was always a loner, somewhat anti-social, awkward in social situations. NOTHING CHANGED!! And it makes me angry, if this is what he has been doing, because he is sabotaging the very group that he wants to rely on to save his life.
I hope everyone understands how difficult it is to get help with mental illness in this country. It is VERY expensive and most insurances NOT NOT cover ANYTHING that has to do with mental health. Most people are forced to NOT get help because they can't afford it.
@Anita- others have been pointing this out. At first I thought this was a stretch-- but today really makes it appear more true. The Jury will never see this kind of affect/behavior.
At the beginning of this case, I felt as though JH was mentally ill, after listening to this case in it's entirety and keeping an open mind, I feel differently. I think he (JH) is smart enough to know the difference between mentally ill and legally sane. I think he thinks that he is smarter than the jury.
I feel like I need to add that this is a change of game for me. The overdone testimony of his mother is what swayed me. She could not, or did not, ever show anything that could be considered a change signalling the onset of mental illness. What she talked about was a coddled, spoiled, normal, albeit, maladjusted young man (who, IMO, seems to be following in his father's footsteps) except that he wanted to feel power and was too cowardly to do anything except go to a darkened movie theater and slaughter strangers, as many as he could.
@Phil...if there is no phase 3....will the victims still have the opportunity to give statements prior to sentencing?

Q: Swift 2.0 error handling My code is below.
enum NutritionalError: ErrorType {
    case NotEnoughNutrients
    case TooMuchNutrients
    case Other
}

As you can see I have a NutritionalError of ErrorType with three different cases.
I have an error handling function that runs as such.
func needs(fat: Double, carbohydrate: Double, protein: Double) throws {
    let totalPercent = fat + carbohydrate + protein

    guard totalPercent > 1 else {
        throw NutritionalError.TooMuchNutrients
    }

    guard totalPercent < 1 else {
        throw NutritionalError.NotEnoughNutrients
    }
}

func calculateNeeds(calories: Int, fatPercent: Double, carbohydratePercent: Double, proteinPercent: Double) -> (Int, Int, Int) {
    do {
        try needs(fatPercent, carbohydrate: carbohydratePercent, protein: proteinPercent)
    } catch NutritionalError.NotEnoughNutrients {
        print("Not enought nutrients.")
    } catch NutritionalError.TooMuchNutrients {
        print("Too many nutrients.")
    }
}

At the line.
            try needs(fatPercent, carbohydrate: carbohydratePercent, protein: proteinPercent)

I am getting an error of.
'Errors thrown from here are not handled because the enclosing catch is not exhaustive'

A: Like the error states, you need to add a final catch without constraints.

A: I found the answer to be adding this line.
catch {
     print("Another error")
}

So you must have a catch statement for everything.

A: Even if you catch all the errors individually, the compiler still thinks there could be an error that could pass through that block.  I am not an expert in swift, but find a way to catch all encompassing errors like catch (Error e) (that's an example and will probably not work)

A: I thought he missed adding this line:
catch NutritionalError.error
