Fallout from seminary presidents' statement continues

Fallout from the Southern Baptist seminary presidents' statement condemning critical race theory continues, as another group of Southern Baptists issued a statement decrying any movement that denies "the reality of systemic injustice" or historic links between the Southern Baptist Convention and racism.
"The Southern Baptist Convention was founded with injustice towards African slaves at its very core," the "Justice, Repentance and the SBC" statement reads. "The SBC was founded, in large part, so that white, southern slave-holding Christians could appoint and support missionaries while continuing to hold their slaves in chains. This historical reality is neither disputed, nor can it be ignored.
"Yet, in the current moment, we see attempts to downplay this historical reality. Many people deny the existence of systemic injustice as a reality. Many who recognize systemic injustices are labeled as 'Marxists,' 'Liberals' and 'Critical Race Theorists,' even though they are theologically orthodox and believe in the sufficiency of Scripture."
The statement acknowledges some "growth" in the area of social justice among Southern Baptists, but it asserts "the actions of some in the SBC appear to be more concerned with political maneuvering than working to present a vibrant, gospel-loving, racially and culturally diverse vision."

The original 20 signatories of the statement include Fred Luter, senior pastor of Franklin Avenue Baptist Church in New Orleans and the first African American SBC president, and Dwight McKissic, senior pastor of Cornerstone Baptist Church in Arlington.
They issued the statement Dec. 18, the 155th anniversary of the proclamation of the 13th amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which abolished slavery. Within 24 hours, the number of individuals adding their signatures to the statement topped 200.
Their statement affirms a Dec. 11 statement from the National African American Fellowship of the SBC leadership and its "acknowledgment of systemic racism."
"While some progress has occurred, some recent events have left many brothers and sisters of color feeling betrayed and wondering if the SBC is committed to racial reconciliation," the "Justice, Repentance and the SBC" statement reads.
Chicago Baptist pastor 'out'
Count Pastor Charlie Dates of Progressive Baptist Church in Chicago among them. The same day the "Justice, Repentance and the SBC" statement was released, Religion News Service published an opinion article by Dates calling the SBC seminary presidents' statement on critical race theory "the final straw."
Dates—who had led his church to align dually with the SBC, assuring older members that "the old SBC was fading—concluded he was overly optimistic in his earlier assessment.
"I had to tell my church I was wrong. There is no such thing as 'the Old Southern Baptists,'" Dates wrote. "Conservatism is, and has always been, the god of the SBC."
The seminary presidents' statement—coupled with other recent actions by some SBC leaders—led Dates to a sad conclusion.
"As for me and the Progressive Baptist Church, I keep hearing the words of Harriet Tubman: 'We out,'" he wrote. "The hard reality of the seminary presidents' statement is that Black people will never gain full equality in the Southern Baptist Convention."
Earlier the same week, Pastor Ralph West of the Church Without Walls in Houston, wrote a commentary in the Baptist Standard that went viral on social media. In it, West explained why he was withdrawing from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and cutting ties with the SBC.
"What the SBC seminary presidents have done has brought division and confusion to the body of Christ," West wrote. "They must repent and seek reconciliation with those who can properly inform them of the wrong they have done. They must ask the Lord to open their hearts to hear the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ and how Jesus' reign truly should impact our society."
SBC leaders respond
SBC President J.D. Greear, who initially had endorsed the seminary presidents' statement, posted a response to "A Statement on Justice, Repentance and the SBC" on his website urging all "Great Commission Baptists to carefully and soberly consider" what it says.

"We recognize that though worldly philosophies like critical race theory arise from worldviews in direct conflict with our own, there are often things we can learn from questions raised and observations made," he wrote. "These are things we can discuss openly and learn together. As we do, we remain committed to judging all things by the Scriptures and bringing every thought captive to Christ.
"We must not default to labeling believers who parse certain questions differently 'Marxist' or 'racist.' This uncharitable spirit is not only intellectually lazy, it is a sin against the body of Christ. Great Commission Baptists can remain united around the inerrancy, supremacy and sufficiency of the Scriptures, even as we vigorously discuss the helpfulness and applicability of various insights."
Baptist Press reported SBC Executive Committee President Ronnie Floyd scheduled a meeting early next month with officers of the National African American Fellowship, the seminary presidents and Greear.
"We have been clear in what we have said to a watching world, but now it is time for us to focus on our actions, specifically in how we relate to each other," Floyd told BP. "Without relationships and conversations, we will not understand each other."

Pedestrian cited in Delsea Drive collision with motor vehicle Jones was one of three pedestrians struck along Delsea Drive within nine days. Check out this story on thedailyjournal.com: https://www.thedailyjournal.com/story/news/2019/01/29/pedestrian-cited-delsea-drive-collision-motor-vehicle/2713927002/
Deborah M. Marko, Vineland Daily Journal Published 5:09 p.m. ET Jan. 29, 2019
VINELAND – Police cited the pedestrian involved in a motor vehicle collision Sunday along Delsea Drive for jaywalking.
Ray A. Jones, 51, of the 800 block of North Main Road, was struck by a northbound car as he crossed the highway headed toward Foster Avenue just after 7:30 p.m.
The driver, a 41-year-old Glassboro woman, told investigators she didn't see Jones. Her vehicle's driver-side rear view mirror struck Jones as he walked near the median stripe, police said.
Officers found Jones "alert and conscious," but he did not answer the questions of first-responders. He was flown to Cooper University Hospital in Camden, where he was listed as stable but critical.
Jones was wearing a brown jacket and dark tan cargo pants, and with the limited lighting in the area, it is possible the driver did not see him, police said.
A witness, stopped on Foster Avenue waiting to pull onto Delsea, told police he noticed Jones on the road's shoulder pointing at his vehicle and talking to himself before appearing to ignore the traffic as he stepped out into road.
Investigators noted Jones' "strange behavior" may have been alcohol-related. Three hours before the collision, Jones was ticketed for having an open container of alcohol in the area of Wood Street and the Boulevard.
Jones was the third pedestrian struck along Delsea Drive in a nine-day span.
In the two earlier collisions, Ronnie Rice, 50, of the 1000 block of Michael Avenue, died Jan 18 after he was struck by two vehicles on Delsea Drive, near Chimes Terrace.
On Saturday, Jeffrey R. Cuss, 57, of the 800 block of Landis Avenue, was killed about 6 a.m. Saturday when he was hit by a car as he crossed Landis Avenue at the Delsea Drive intersection near the shuttered Sears building.

The Delahunt Homes team has been crafting and building homes since 1992. Due to the complexity and detail we put into our work as a standard, we will take on just a few projects at a time. Those projects range from extensive renovations to high-end, custom-built homes. From contemporary to traditional, whatever style you choose, the overall goal is to reflect the personality and lifestyle of the homeowner, which makes each of our custom-built homes unique.
Our core company belief is that personal attention and communication are the keys to a successful and positive building experience. Our partnership and collaboration with the homeowner and architect from the onset of each project creates a solid foundation that sets the stage for a smooth, efficient build.

Decolonising DMU
COVID-19 | Supporting our city
Activity this Christmas with DMU Local
Improving chances for all our children
At DMU Local, we are committed to the public good, and giving back to the local community through projects in partnership with De Montfort University and local businesses and charities. This also includes working within schools with children up to the age of 16 as part of our growing commitment.
The activities that DMU Local runs are designed to enhance learning and to be able to offer new opportunities that schools may not be able to provide. This is particularly useful for children from a widening participation background, who may need encouragement to realise their potential or discover any goals and aspirations.
With more than 60 primary and secondary schools working with us in and around Leicester and the number steadily increasing, this is the perfect time to join our public engagement programme. With the support of De Montfort University, DMU Local work with local schools and teachers to provide essential support through our database of hundreds of volunteers.
DMU Local carried out 185 activities throughout the last year which involved over 16,000 participants in a wide range of projects including Paired Reading, Mathletics, Options Evenings, the regional LEGO league tournament as well as a whole series of campus visits and bespoke activities. This allowed for pupils to engage with real life students and allowed them to really grasp what it's like to be a university student.
Feedback from these experiences is always extremely positive with one teacher, Mr Shaffi, a teacher at Shaftesbury Junior School saying, "I have felt this year we have gained so much from the partnership between our school and the University.
Thank you again for organising all the different opportunities and offering all the volunteers: it has made a profound impact on the quality of education our pupils have received. Looking forward to building on this year's success in the new term."
DMU Local aims to deliver worthwhile support to all schools and give children in pre-16 education the head start they deserve.
Watch: De Montfort University student Paul Weedon talks about his volunteering work with DMU Local to start and run a drama club with pupils at the Beaumont Leys School, in Leicester.
DMU Local offers the opportunity for young people ranging from year 6 to year 10 to visit our city centre based campus. This involves a variety of activities the young people can participate in to get a real feel of what it's like to be a student at De Montfort University and learning new skills for their future. This goes a long way into helping the pupils decide what they would like to pursue in the future; whether that's at university or elsewhere. Activities in the Campus Visit include a tour of the campus and its facilities, talking to current students and alumni, meeting staff members and course leaders, and also the opportunity to ask any burning questions about their futures. Due to Covid-19 restrictions, we are currently unable to deliver these activities on campus, but please ask us what we can deliver in school at this time. For more information, please contact schoolsoutreach@dmu.ac.uk.
In school activity
Here at DMU Local, we offer in school activity to prepare pupils for life beyond school. These are adapted from the campus visit activities to be delivered in schools. We have put sessions in place where pupils can discuss their GCSE options, employability sessions where CV skills and interview skills are introduced, revision skills to support with upcoming assessments and beyond, and also University life sessions to give pupils the opportunity to really understand what life is like as a university student. These plans can be either teacher-led or a pre-recorded session from DMU Local. For more information, please contact schoolsoutreach@dmu.ac.uk.
DMU Local offers the chance for students to participate in our monthly Mathletics sessions. Aimed at year 6 pupils, these sessions are led by DMU Academics who have offered up their time to teach the next generation of Math whizzes! For more information, please contact schoolsoutreach@dmu.ac.uk.
As part of an international tournament, schools in the Leicestershire will compete against each other to win their regional league. The winning team will go on to the National tournament where they could win some spectacular prizes and have the chance to complete internationally. DMU Local will enlist volunteers from around the university in preparation for a tournament day. The teams will be learning how to code robots and research topical issues that impact their local community. All of this is supported by the Institute of Engineering and Technology. For more information, please contact schoolsoutreach@dmu.ac.uk.
Character Education is now recognised within the Ofsted Framework. We can offer an in-school visit for both primary and secondary schools based around Character Education, positive attributes and higher education. Schools will be able to choose from two workshops or have both! For more information, please contact schoolsoutreach@dmu.ac.uk
DMU Talented
DMU Talented is a four-day activity running during the Easter holidays for year 10 students. There are four subjects for students to choose from: Drama, Law, Art & Design and Healthcare Science. Students join academics and experts in these areas to develop skills that will help them in their future education and with their college/sixth form and university personal statements.
Dates and spaces are to be confirmed for this project in 2021. Please refer back to the website for any updates nearer the time.
DMU Aspire
DMU aspire is a five-day, non-residential summer school which gives Y12 students a complete university experience in a week of engaging activities. DMU aspire will particularly benefit students who may just miss out on the academic grades to study at university or who have the capability of going into higher education but face social and/or economic barriers. Upon successful completion of DMUaspire, students will be eligible for a reduction of (an equivalent to) 16 UCAS points towards an undergraduate degree at DMU.
2021 dates are still to be confirmed. Please refer to the below webpage for updates on when applications will open: https://www.dmu.ac.uk/study/dmuaspire/dmuaspire.aspx
Pathways is the collaborative partnership of higher education providers in Leicester City, Leicestershire and Rutland as part of the Office for Students Uni Connect programme. Working in partnership under the name Pathways, the Universities and Further Education colleges work with schools and colleges to offer a number of activities and interventions in their local areas. Pupils who take part in Pathways events can experience life at university, develop new skills, explore future careers and more. Pathways website hosts a range of resources from virtual tours to student blogs. Find out more here: www.pathwaystohe.ac.uk
For all of our activities, we are having to take Covid-19 restrictions into account. We will try to limit face to face activity where necessary, whilst still delivering the highest quality portfolio of activity. Our Campus visits cannot take place at the moment, but we hope to deliver these as soon as is safe to do so. The safety of your pupils and our staff is of utmost importance.
Some activities mentioned above may not be running this year due to Covid-19, so please contact us at schoolsoutreach@dmu.ac.uk if you have any questions.

Work in creative organizations is often completed under intense working conditions. Due to the nature of the industry sector, creative workers must manage and deal with a range of factors related to their daily activities. These include multiple projects, tight deadlines and shifting schedules, to produce creative outputs that may have limited success in the marketplace. Despite the intensity of the work, the drive to create sets up conditions where creatives will self-exploit to meet work demands due to strong intrinsic motivations. This behaviour can leave creative workers susceptible to exploitation by employers because they offer a space for creative people to get resources and projects that meet these powerful intrinsic needs. To that end, creative people come to negotiate who they are within the constraints imposed by the work they do, and for this reason, we sought to thematically analyze the documentary Waking Sleeping Beauty (Hahn, 2009) to consider the intentional and unintentional construction of creative worker identity. We found that the identities of creatives could be categorized according to four themes: Creatives as passionate and/or exploited; Creatives as transformational, Creatives as subordinates, and Creatives as resistors. These themes revealed how animators negotiated their identities at a time when Disney Animation was experiencing several upheavals and suggested that identification with Disney could have both advantages and disadvantages for creative workers. The broader consideration from the themes alludes to a need to consider how to best provide for the creative worker while still capitalizing on the business needs of the creative economy.

Hey Poor Player's Francis DiPersio writes - "Despite these nagging issues, The Vault of the Traveler is a roller coaster ride that does a great job of cementing Tales from the Borderlands as Telltale Games' finest outing yet."
Good end to the series.
I just hope we see a second season.
Solid review! Hoping this isn't the last we see of these characters.

El arte en tu casa
William Trost Richards was an American painter born in Philadelphia in 1833. He studied with German painter Paul Weber and his work was first seen in an exhibition organized by landscape painter Albert Bierstadt in 1858. While studying he worked as a designer of metal ornaments.
He was a member of the "National Academy of Design" and met the "Hudson River School", which was a group of landscape painters influenced by romanticism.
He was also a member of the "Association for the Advancement of Truth in Art", the so-called pre-Raphaelites, a brotherhood of painters, writers and art critics.
He traveled and worked a lot in Europe but his last years painted in the United States. He became a member of the American Watercolor Association, and his last works were some beautiful marinas painted with this technique.
He died in 1905 in Newport, Rhode Island.

Peoples Group Whistleblowing Program
At Peoples Group we take pride in operating with integrity, honesty, diversity, and responsibility, as we have done throughout our 35-year history. These values are reflected in our internal Code of Conduct.
We highly value our relationships with employees, customers, and stakeholders and are aware of the impact our business decisions have on them. Our commitment is to always do the right thing.
As part of this ongoing commitment, we have established a confidential, anonymous, and secure reporting system to report any concerns about irregular business activities or behaviour. We continue to foster a culture where employees feel safe and are encouraged to speak up about any actual, suspected, or anticipated wrongdoing, without fear of retaliation or disadvantage.
What kind of wrongdoing can be reported?
Wrongdoing can come in many forms. It may be conducted by an individual or group and can lead to serious or negative implications to the public's interest or the integrity of Peoples Group. Conduct to report could include dishonest, illegal, fraudulent, suspicious, or unethical behaviors or the unauthorized disclosure of confidential information.
Wrongdoing may include a contravention of: any provision of the Bank Act or its regulations; a voluntary code of conduct that Peoples Group has adopted or a public commitment that it has made; or a policy or procedure established by Peoples Group.
Who can report wrongdoing?
You can report wrongdoing if you are a current or former employee, contractor, or director of Peoples Group, or an employee of an affiliate or third party, representative, or other intermediaries of Peoples Group.
Customers concerned about how a product or service has been sold or offered should contact us through our complaint resolution process, not the whistleblowing program. Details are available at https://www.peoplestrust.com/en/about-us/resolving-your-concerns/
How can you report wrongdoing?
We have several internal channels for reporting wrongdoing. Employees can report wrongdoing to: the Appointed Employee, as defined in our Peoples Group Whistleblowing Policy; their People Leader; a member of Senior Management; or the Chief People Officer.
Alternatively, wrongdoing can be reported anonymously through an independent, third-party agency, ClearView ConnectsTM.
Online through their secure website at: www.clearviewconnects.com
Over the phone through a dedicated toll-free number: 1-866-865-3691
By mail through the confidential post office box at: ClearView Connects P.O. Box 11017 Toronto, Ontario M1E 1N0
Reporting is available 24/7, in multiple languages.
You can also report wrongdoings directly to the Commissioner of the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada, the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions, any other government agency or body that regulates or supervises financial institutions, or a law enforcement agency.
What protections apply to whistleblowers?
Employees who report wrongdoing based on a reasonable belief, are protected from disadvantage, reprisal, or retaliation.
If you report wrongdoing, all information received from you will be treated confidentially and sensitively. Your identity or information that could reasonably be expected to reveal your identity will only be disclosed to the appropriate regulatory body or law enforcement agency for purposes related to an investigation. If your identity is disclosed, we will make every reasonable effort to inform you of the disclosure.
How do we investigate whistleblowing?
An initial preliminary review will be conducted to determine whether the wrongdoing should be investigated. While not all wrongdoing reports will lead to an investigation, all reports will be assessed, and a decision made on whether to investigate.
All investigations will follow an objective and fair process. Investigations will be conducted in a timely manner, and all parties to an investigation will be treated fairly. Employees involved in the allegation of wrongdoing will be provided with an opportunity to respond before any adverse findings are made against them.
Employees who report wrongdoing should be aware that the findings and recommendations of any investigation are a confidential matter and may not be made available to them.
Ethical reporting covers several areas such as accounting or financial controls, acts of dishonesty or illegal activity, fraud, unauthorized disclosure of confidential information or conduct that appears suspicious or unethical.

Characters / Senki Zesshou Symphogear Other Symphogear Characters
Other characters shown Throughout the series
Yumi Itaba
Voiced by: Chinatsu Akasaki
A schoolfriend of Hibiki and Miku. She enjoys watching anime.
Alternate Character Reading: Like the Symphogear songs above, Genchaku! Denkō Keiji Ban, which is mainly her Image Song, can be misread as "Genkitsu! Denkō Keiji Ban". If you listen to her before she starts to sing in episode 4, she pronounce it as "Genchaku". "Genchaku" is also part of the lyrics.
Break the Cutie: Suffers one when a soldier gets killed in front of her, and another one when Hibiki goes berserk.
Breaking the Fourth Wall: Very frequently.
Catchphrase: "This isn't an anime."
Cosplay Otaku Girl: In the fourth episode of G, she cosplays as the titular character of Denkō Keiji Ban. She even drags her two friends in costumes as well, so they can perform their karaoke song in the school contest.
Day in the Limelight: She gets a chance to shine in the first season finale, helping to get the power back on. She even references this trope:
Yumi: "In an anime, this would be the moment where the small-bodied girl gets the spotlight!"
Demoted to Extra: She shows up for only one, silent scene at the start of XV, along with the rest of the trio.
Epic Fail: It's her idea to participate with her two friends at the karaoke contest. Yumi's goal is to win the contest, so she can legitimately found an Anison Club. They don't even get to the chorus part.
Fangirl: Of anime. In G, she even tries to found an Anison Club, but with little success.
Genki Girl: She's much more upbeat than her friends who aren't Hibiki.
Girlish Pigtails: Is the only one of the cliqué.
Image Song: In 'G. Genchaku! Denkō Keiji Ban, an opening song covered by her, Shiori and Kuriyo. It's from an anime parody called Denkō Keiji Ban. Of course, she's the lead singer.
Large Ham: She can be very dramatic. Most notable in the Grand Finale of the first season and then in G, when she cosplays Denkō Keiji Ban.
Meta Girl: She keeps pointing out how things play out like in an Anime, beginning by calling Hibiki out for behaving like an Anime character in the second episode.
Yumi (in episode 11): "How could the school be under attack? It's not like this is an anime or anything!"
Yumi (in episode 5 of G): "You're as dense as a main character of a Harem Anime."
Shipper on Deck: Seems to ship Miku and Hibiki together and gets annoyed with Hibiki's dense nature.
Those Three Girls: With Kuriyo and Shiori.
Kuriyo Andou
Voiced by: Mikako Komatsu
Another schoolfriend of Hibiki and Miku.
Boyish Short Hair
Cosplay: In the fourth episode of G, she is forced by Yumi to cosplay a mantis villain from Denkō Keiji Ban. Kuriyo is embarrassed about it.
Image Song: In G. Genchaku! Denkō Keiji Ban, an opening song covered by her, Yumi and Shiori. It's from an anime parody called Denkō Keiji Ban.
The Nicknamer: Refers to Hibiki as Bikki and Miku as Hina.
And as of the third season, she refers to Chris as Kinechri.
Those Three Girls: With Yumi and Shiori.
Shiori Terashima
Voiced by: Nao Touyama
Cosplay: In the fourth episode of G, cosplays a purple catgirl criminal (or heroine?) as requested by Yumi. Unlike Kuriyo, Shiori seems to enjoy it.
Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: She has a nicer, calmer demeanor than the other two girls and golden locks to match.
Image Song: In G. Genchaku! Denkō Keiji Ban, an opening song covered by her, Yumi and Kuriyo. It's from an anime parody called Denkō Keiji Ban.
Last-Name Basis: Refers to her friends by their surnames, oddly enough.
The Quiet One: Has the least amount of lines out of the trio.
Those Three Girls: With Yumi and Kuriyo.
Masahito Shibata
Voiced by: Hidekatsu Shibata
The Vice-President of Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Big Eater: Of noodles. Literally every time we see him, he's slurping down a bowl of noodles.
Grumpy Old Man: It's why most people don't want to deal with him.
Odd Friendship: With Genjuro.
What Happened to the Mouse?: Has a few sparse appearances, and then, is suddenly gone from the plot.
He does make a brief appearance in the first episode of GX, so it can be assumed that he's still alive.
Akira Tachibana
Voiced by: Toshihiko Seki
Hibiki's father, who lost everything in the public backlash resulting from Hibiki surviving the Zwei Wing incident two years ago and abandoned his family.
The Atoner: By the time of XV, he's started making attempts to mend his relationship with his family, though it seems a slow process. He even outright states he refuses to be a Dirty Coward anymore in episode 12
Broken Pedestal: Hibiki tells Shirabe and Kirika that she used to really look up to her father, but his abandonment broke that pedestal and his behavior upon reuniting with her smashed it into dust. And somehow the 11th episode managed to fix that. Somewhat.
Character Development: Overall, following everything that happened from the moment he came back into Hibiki's life to the end of GX, he's gone on to do everything he can to become both a better person and a better father, in the hopes of becoming somebody that Hibiki can truly be proud of.
Defensive Feint Trap: Pulls one on Carol by seemingly running away and then pathetically throwing rocks at her... until he grabs Hibiki's relic pendant that Carol had knocked away from her and throws it to Hibiki.
Dirty Coward: Runs away to save his own skin instead of evacuating the kids like Tsubasa tells him to.
When Carol tried to blast them off, although he saved Hibiki with a dive, he then started to run off like a coward... Though it turned out to be the trope above, seeing that at first he wanted Hibiki to survive and run even if he's the one to die, then turns back to throw Gungnir back to Hibiki.
Disappeared Dad: Is this to Hibiki until Episode 7 of GX. Even with his reappearance, Hibiki is distraught to find him in such a pathetic state, and wishes she hadn't met him again.
Hibiki: "What's broken can't go back to how it was..."
Entitled Bastard: In episode 8, not only does he expect Hibiki to completely forgive him with no issues for his parental abandonment, when she needed him most, but he arrived at the family restaurant, ordered a meal, and didn't even have any money on hand. To top it off, he just continues to eat his sandwich when Hibiki storms out in a rage after all of that.
Hate Sink: Hibiki appropriately describes him as "the man who ruined her family". Between his jackassery and sleazy behaviour while attempting in his own words to "get together again" with Hibiki, it's a surprise that she hasn't decked him across the face. His next appearance in 11, however, shows him to be running away from this trope as he showed that he does care a lot for his family, it's just that he admits he's something of a Dirty Coward.
How the Mighty Have Fallen: 'Mighty' might be saying too much, but this is a guy who was once an esteemed researcher, now reduced to a general store clerk because of an accident. With that kind of downgrade, it's no wonder he became bitter.
Jerkass: It's mentioned in the keynotes that he became an abusive alcoholic who took out his anger on his family, and his abandonment of them contributed heavily toward Hibiki's mental trauma. Though this is due to the heavy societal and work abuse he took from both his boss (whose daughter had died in the concert), co-workers, and society itself for being happy that Hibiki survived.
Jerkass Realization: Has one of these when he sees Hibiki transform and fight Carol in Episode 11 instead of running away, realizing that he shouldn't run away from his problems either.
Rebuilt Pedestal: As shown in XV, Hibiki's opinion of him looks to have improved after he started doing his best to legitimately atone for his former actions.
Took a Level in Kindness: Following everything that happened in GX, when he shows up again in XV, he's pretty much dropped almost all of the negative qualities he once had, though still a bit disconnected from his family.
Wisdom from the Gutter: Who had expected things that made Hibiki such a heroic figure were from her deadbeat of a father? Even Kaneko says that Akira is written as a below average schmuck, not a hero's father; everything he said, including the heroic rhetoric he never personally believe in like the "blessing and curse are two sides of the same coin", is simply to cheer his daughter up. Hibiki can take anything positive from his words because she's so above him as a person.
Sonya Virena
Voiced By: Natsumi Fujiwara
A woman who once worked with the Yukine family to bring peace to the world through music. She served as an older sister figure to Chris before the death of Chris' parents soured their relationship. Their relationship takes another hit when Chris is forced to shoot off her brother Stephan's leg to save his life from an Alca-Noise.
Broken Pedestal: Chris used to look up to Sonya as an older sister figure but after her carelessness led to terrorists blowing up the concert hall where her parents were playing Chris blamed Sonya for their deaths. By episode 8 Chris' relationship with her improves as she realises that there was nothing she could have done and decides to bury the hatchet.
We Used to Be Friends: Chris and Sonya used to be as close as sisters during their time together while the Yukine's were singing. However, after the death of her parents, Chris blamed Sonya for being careless. Things only got worse after Chris was forced to shoot off Stephan's leg and Sonya admits that she can't forgive Chris now either. After episode 8 however, after a pep talk by Stephan, the two agree to bury the hatchet and leave the past in the past.
Stephan Virena
Voiced By: Asuna Tomari
Sonya's younger brother Stephan was one of many people who were kept in labor camps in the Val Verde Commonwealth before being rescued by the Symphogear users. He brings them to his village to free them from the threat of the Alca-Noise but one of them grabs his leg and Chris is forced to shot it off to save his life.
An Arm and a Leg: Stephan's leg is grabbed by one of the Alca-Noise during the skirmish in his village. In order to save his life Chris is forced to shoot it off, which sours the relationship between her and his sister even further.
Artificial Limbs: Stephan arrives in Japan in order to get a new mechanical leg to replace the one lost to the Alca-Noise.
Cheerful Child: Stephan seems like a fairly happy, well adjusted child, despite his experiences. He also holds no ill will towards Chris telling her that there was nothing else she could have done to save him.
What the Hell, Hero?: Calls out both Sonya and Chris for being stuck in the past while he's looking towards the future even with his missing leg. This wakes both of them up enough to forgive each other.

Asplenium bradleyi - D.C. Eat.
Reasons: Widespread species with localized distribution. Some parts of the range have greater threats than others, for example, some areas in the Appalachian Mountains are threatened by strip mining activities. This species is more common than occurrence records indicate in some parts of the species range.
Range Extent Comments: Asplenium bradleyi has a very spotty distribution over much of its range which includes the Appalachians and Ozark regions (Werth pers. comm.). The species occurs from southern New York and New Jersey to Georgia and Alabama, west to Ohio, Missouri and Oklahoma (Gleason and Cronquist 1963).
Number of Occurrences Comments: "Occurring rarely to locally in the Appalachian region... but it is fairly frequent in the Ozark and Ouachita region... (FNA 1993)"
Overall Threat Impact Comments: One of the primary threats to A. bradleyi is the destruction of habitat through strip-mining activities (Werth pers. comm.). Within portions of the Appalachians, coal underlies the sandstone strata on which A. bradleyi grows. These activities are a significant threat in the Cumberland Plateau region of Kentucky and Tennessee.
Additional threats include the logging of upland forests above the cliff in such a way that slash is left against the cliff face (Ortt pers. comm.). Logging of adjacent forests may also be a threat due to changes in light levels and the consequent onset of desiccation brought about by such activities (Evans pers. comm.).
Rock climbers are another potential threat to existing populations (Ortt pers. comm., Schwegman pers. comm.). At one site in Ohio, climbers nearly destroyed a population. Fortunately, some plants survived in areas that were not accessed by the climbers (Ortt pers. comm.).
A population growing along a township road has been extirpated since the re-opening of the road roughly ten years ago (1980). It is unknown whether the population succumbed from physical damage by road work, change in air quality (dust/fumes) or some other subtle factor (Ortt pers. comm.).
Some plants have been killed by extreme drought conditions which deplete moisture within the rocks (Schwegman pers. comm.). Since A. bradleyi is a species typically found in habitats prone to severe drought, these events do not likely make a lasting impact on natural populations.
Short-term Trend Comments: Declining due to habitat destruction through strip-mining and other means.
Global Range: Asplenium bradleyi has a very spotty distribution over much of its range which includes the Appalachians and Ozark regions (Werth pers. comm.). The species occurs from southern New York and New Jersey to Georgia and Alabama, west to Ohio, Missouri and Oklahoma (Gleason and Cronquist 1963).
General Description: This is a small, tightly packed fern that grows upright from the cracks in cliff faces and rocks. The leaves are 4-20 cm long and divided once into 6-14 pairs of triangular leaflets that have toothed edges. The lowest pair are the largest and the leaflets very gradually diminish in size toward the tip of the leaf. The lower half of the leaf stalk is black and shiny and the upper half is green.
"Rhizome ca. 1.5 mm thick, the numerous narrowly lanceolate scales blackish, 2-4.5 mm; fronds numerous, spreading, 7-25 cm, the stipe brown, to 9 cm; blade linear-oblong, to 20 x 4.5 cm, pinnate-pinnatifid to bipinnate, the rachis green for the distal third or half, brown below, bearing scattered slender scales; pinnae 8-15 pairs, alternate or the basal subopposite, short- stalked, deltoid to oblong-lanceolate, sometimes with only one free, superior basal segment (otherwise incised-serrate), or pinnate nearly throughout with 5 or more pairs of segments, these obtuse, sharply serrate."
Reproduction Comments: Asplenium bradleyi is a highly-variable allotetraploid species (Werth pers. comm.). Its putative parents are the wide-ranging A. platyneuron, and A. montanum, a species nearly restricted to the Appalachians (Werth et al. 1985). Hybridization has occurred several times in the history of this taxon, creating an impressive genotypic array (Werth pers. comm., Werth et al. 1985). For additional information pertaining to the allotetraploid origins of A. bradleyi, see Werth et al. (1985).
Habitat Comments: Habitat includes the crevices of sandstone cliffs and ledges where other vegetation is typically lacking (Werth pers. comm.). The crevices in which the species occurs are typically large enough for A. bradleyi but too small for other larger fern species and flowering plants (Werth pers. comm.).
In Ohio, Asplenium bradleyi occurs in crevices on upper slopes of west to south facing sandstone outcrops (Ortt pers. comm.). Although this habitat type is plentiful within the state, occurrences of the species are few. Asplenium bradleyi grows on vertical or horizontal crevices but does not dwell on the ledges. Associates include Asplenium pinnatifidum, A. platyneuron and a few lichens.
In Missouri, A. bradleyi is scattered across 17 (mainly Ozarkian) counties, occurring on sandstone, granitic or chert bluffs in sheltered, dry, shaded crevices (Smith pers. comm.). Associates include some mosses adapted to dry sandstone. There is very little competition from other vascular plants.
Populations of A. bradleyi in Kentucky are known from dry, but mostly shaded sandstone cliffs (Evans pers. comm.). At times, A. montanum and A. pinnatifidum may occur nearby and may be considered associates.
In Illinois, A. bradleyi is found in crevices of sandstone cliff faces and cherty inclusions within limestone outcrops (Schwegman pers. comm.). Few other species grow in this harsh environment. Asplenium pinnatifidum is one of its few associates.
There are no known extant populations remaining in New York (Young pers. comm.). Two historic populations were known from the state, in the Shawangunk Mountains and the vicinity of Newburgh (NY NHP 1990).
Stewardship Overview: Monitoring needs include a regular census of A. bradleyi populations, tracking numbers and locations of individuals. Research should be centered on the propagation requirements of the species, delineating the range of germination requirements. Research on the life history and ecology of A. bradleyi are needed to ascertain the habitat parameters and to be able to compare populations across its range. Maintenance of cliff face habitat is the primary habitat management need. Habitat protection from human disturbances (rock climbing) may be a need.
Restoration Potential: The recovery potential of A. bradleyi is not known at this time.
Preserve Selection & Design Considerations: Efforts aimed at protecting A. bradleyi sites should encompass sufficient buffer to protect the site from outside threats. Sufficient upslope buffer is needed to protect plants from upslope deforestation activities which may result in increased surface run-off. Protection efforts must protect the site from effects of strip-mining if the population is in an area which is underlain by coal.
Management Requirements: Protection of the cliff face habitat on which A. bradleyi lives is the primary management need. Habitat protection from human disturbances (rock climbing, upland deforestation, strip mining) is an additional need.
Management procedures should include the protection of the cliff face from all potentially-damaging effects. These habitats should be left off-limits to climbers. Maintenance of the upslope forests is a necessary management need.
Monitoring Requirements: A regular census of A. bradleyi should be instated at all protected population sites (Schwegman pers. comm.). Efforts designed to monitor recruitment should also be implemented.
Numbers of individuals at each site should be monitored on a regular basis (perhaps annually). In order to track recruitment, it may be worthwhile to create a comprehensive map of all existing plants. Mapping of extant plants may facilitate the gathering of information pertaining to population maintenance.
Management Programs: At present, no known management programs are in place for A. bradleyi.
Monitoring Programs: Marilyn Ortt of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources has been doing some monitoring of populations as a private project. The most intensely monitored sites are mapped with respect to position of plants on the outcrop and whether they occur on horizontal or vertical crevices. Fertile, infertile or dead plants are marked and tracked over time. At less intensely monitored sites, inventories of plant numbers and life stage are made. Three sites are visited annually.

Management Research Programs: Dr. Charles Werth is conducting an on-going research project that is aimed at determining the range-wide genotypic variability in A. bradleyi using electrophoretic analysis of plant material.
Contact: Dr. Charles Werth, Department of Biological Sciences, Texas Tech University, Lubbock, TX 79409. Telephone No. (806) 742-3222.
Paul Brown is currently conducting a survey for Asplenium bradleyi in New York. At present, there are no known populations remaining. Contact: Paul Brown, 15 Dresden Street, Jamaica Plain, MA 02130. Telephone No. (617) 524-5150.
Management Research Needs: Propagation requirements for A. bradleyi need to be studied. The range of germination requirements inherent in the species would provide information in determining if this is a limiting factor with regards to distribution and abundance (Ortt pers. comm.).
Research on the life history and ecology of A. bradleyi are also needed to ascertain the habitat parameters and to be able to compare populations across the range of the species (Ortt pers. comm.). Such information will help delineate species management needs, which in itself is a research need (Watson pers. comm.).
Additional inventory work is needed to determine the true range- wide status of the species (Young pers. comm.).

'I AM A BULLY': Texas mom forces son to wear shirt to shame him after classmates insulted

A Texas mother took matters into her own hands when she found out her son was bullying his fifth grade classmates.
"He was calling other boys 'stupid', calling them 'idiots,'" Star, who didn't want her last name used, told Houston TV station KTRK.
Last week, she made her child wear a t-shirt to school with "I am a bully" written on the front and back.
"I'm a very old-school parent. I don't coddle my children. I don't sugar coat the world to them," she said.
The mom even posted pictures of the boy wearing the shirt on Facebook, but decided to take them down after she attracted negative comments about embarrassing her child.
"I posted it to reach out to the parents of any of the kids my son may have bullied so that each one of them could get a personal apology," Star said, standing by her decision to publicize the punishment.
Star said her son learned his lesson, adding she received support from the elementary school's guidance counsellor and teachers.
"They all were 100% on board. They understood why I was doing it and that, for my son, this is what works."

Review of PAMM managers results
Let's sum up the results of the past week. Six new accounts joined our PAMM ranking over the past 7 days. The total of December's newcomers is to equal 15. One hundred nineteen PAMM managers registered profits at the end of the week, 6 managers suffered losses amounting to over 50% of their deposits. The whole of ranked PAMM accounts amounts to 320.
FED's predictable decision to raise interest rates became the highlight of the past week. As a rule, the dollar steadies on the eve of the rates rise cycle, but then reverses and moves downwards as soon as the cycle has begun. Time will show what will happen this time.
TOP 10 most profitable accounts over the past week
Sculpa [684116] registered the highest weekly profitability. His/her 77% profitability and overall 45-day profitability of 48% are really impressive. H [143007], the profitability leader, ranked 9th in the TOP TEN, with the weekly profitability amounting to 11.9%. The manager reached new historical peaks in terms of profitability (11 830%) but didn't manage to steady at this level. Still, new records are yet to come.
JorgeZacariasCapital [676010] ranked fourth. The manager can't be called a novice since his account is 7 months old.
The monitoring data look quite attractive. Despite quite an aggressive trading strategy, the manager luckily avoids serious drawdowns. The highest relative drawdown equals 30.7% over the week, which is a good factor. So, investors should pay attention to this trader.
TOP 10 overall profitability
Six traders from our Overall Profitability TOP TEN registered profits at the end of the week, 2 traders hadn't been trading, and 2 managers registered losses. The three leaders are the same. H [143007] is unlikely to face serious competitors in the nearest time. A newcomer simplicius [684048] is making noticeable progress. His account grew fivefold within 2 months and the balance exceeded a threshold of 5000 dollars. This novice is worth your attention.
TOP TEN equity
The aggregate managed capital in 10 biggest PAMM accounts amounted to $335 497 at the end of the week. Obviously, investors are withdrawing money on the eve of the Christmas holidays.
Happy investment, everyone!

"To beat the No. 1 team in the East means a lot to us," Jokic said.
Jokic made the score 104-103 with a free throw with seven seconds to play, then hit two more foul shots with 5.6 seconds remaining before Lowry bounced a 26-footer off the rim.
Jokic had 23 points, 15 assists and 11 rebounds for the Nuggets, who won their sixth in a row and ended the Raptors' eight-game winning streak.
Kawhi Leonard scored 27 points for the Raptors.
Harris, who scored three points, did not play after the first quarter because of a sore right hip. The fifth-year pro, averaging 17.3 points a game, is expected to undergo an MRI test Tuesday.
Golden State 128, at Atlanta 111: Stephen Curry scored 30 points, Kevin Durant 28 and Klay Thompson 27 for the Warriors, who ended a six-game road losing streak by winning for only the fourth time in 10 games. Golden State raced to a 34-17 lead in the first 12 minutes as Curry outscored the Hawks by himself, pouring in 18 points.
Oklahoma City 110, at Detroit 83: Steven Adams scored 21 points and Russell Westbrook scored 18 for the Thunder, who are 15-3 since losing their first four games. Blake Griffin led the Pistons with 20 points.
at Minnesota 103, Houston 91: Karl-Anthony Towns finished with 24 points and 11 rebounds, helping the Timberwolves erase a 14-point halftime deficit. The Rockets, who got 29 points from James Harden, led by as many as 19 points in the first half before Minnesota stormed back to take the lead for good in the third quarter.
Cleveland 99, at Brooklyn 97: Newcomer Alec Burks threw down a two-handed dunk with 3.2 seconds remaining, helping the Cavaliers survive a fourth-quarter collapse and end a four-game losing streak after they blew a 91-80 lead.
Washington 110, at New York 107: Bradley Beal scored 27 points and John Wall had 18 points and 15 assists for the Wizards, who won on the road for only the third time.


The new housing and dining complex at the UCSD Eleanor Roosevelt College campus consists of 22 buildings organized on 12.5 acres. The $83 million facility, constructed by Rudolph & Sletten, covers more than 466,000 total square feet.
UCSD hired NV5 to perform quality assurance services for this project, including grading observation, soil compaction testing, structural construction inspections, and materials testing.


ESA has begun developing a new blood-testing device for astronauts on the International Space Station. A wide range of ailments from diabetes to heart disease should be diagnosable in moments from a single drop of astronaut blood.
A pinprick of blood is added to a mini-disc embedded with a wide variety of miniaturised test procedures. The disc is then inserted into the 'point-of-care' device and set spinning to spread the blood sample across the surface.
Multiple tests are performed simultaneously, with automated results delivered within a matter of minutes.
Testing for conditions including diabetes, heart disease, liver and kidney damage, it promises to perform some of the billion or so blood tests ordered by care providers annually to a laboratory level of accuracy in a faster, on-the-spot fashion.
ESA is now looking to adapt the device for space, signing a contract with Irish company Radisens Diagnostics on 28 October. Additional tests will be added and the design developed for the space environment, such ensuring its spinning technique works satisfactorily in weightlessness.
"Biochemical analysis aboard the Space Station is becoming a high priority for the human physiology experiments carried out there," explained Nadine Fritz of ESA's Directorate of Human Spaceflight and Operations.
Ireland's Minister for Research & Innovation Seán Sherlock welcomed the contract: "Radisens Diagnostics' success is the most recent example of an Irish company reaping significant benefits from Ireland's membership of ESA.
This activity is being supported as part of ESA's General Support Technology Programme (GSTP), which serves to mature promising prototypes into space-ready hardware.
In particular, the contract has come about through a dedicated scheme within the main programme: 'GSTP-AO' targets the development of market-oriented technologies, funded equally by ESA and the partner company.
Companies within participating ESA Member States are free to submit proposals at any time.
"This contract with Radisens demonstrates the flexibility and business reach of this scheme," commented Alberto Tobias, head of ESA's Systems, Software and Technology Department.
"Winning this contract from ESA is a significant endorsement of our 'sample-to-answer' device and the breadth of blood tests it can offer," said Jerry O'Brien, CEO of Radisens Diagnostics.

Q: Syntax for using OpenCover with a service I am trying to incorporate code coverage into an application. Since I am using VS Express, OpenCover seemed like the best (read: only) option.
The application is a silverlight web application, with multiple services. I have managed to get the silverlight code coverage to work with the sample commandline that was provided in the usage document. However, when I try the sample commandline for the service layer, it doesn't work. It gives
Service 'Application\Sample.Web.WCF\SampleService.svc' cannot be found - have you sp
ecified your arguments correctly?
This is the input that I pass:
OpenCover\OpenCover.Console.exe -target:"Application\Sample.Web.WCF\SampleService.svc" -service –register
I needed help on what kind of arguments is missing. Also in the service section of the usage manual, it mentions to input "Local Service" instead of "Local System". Where do I input that?
And how do I point to the .pdb files?
I saw a similar article called "How do I hook into a service with OpenCover?" but I do not understand how/what profile to pre-register using regsvr32 and also do I give the particular service or just the folder path?
Thanks in advance.

A: You are trying to use the syntax for running against a windows service when what you have is an app that looks runs under IIS (or iisexpress)
The service layer (.svc) that you have is not a windows service but a wcf-web service; use the same (similar) syntax as you did to launch your silverlight application.

The comments by Mr Justice Smith against Sports Direct
SDI = Sports DirectÂ
The Judgement at paras 84-90.
The above failings on the part of SDI might be said to be technical but committal applications are highly technical. The reason of course is because an application if established can lead to a visitation of periods of imprisonment. It is regularly the case that the court is driven to commit a person to prison for contempt because it is the only way in which the court can demonstrate that interlocutory orders that are made are meant to be obeyed. If the court does not enforce breaches of those interlocutory orders the whole system will be weakened and it is likely that the ability of the court to provide interim protection will be correspondingly weakened.
Against that the procedures for establishing liability are set with a number of clear and well established requirements designed to protect the recipient from oppressive conduct on the part of an applicant.
In Sectorguard Plc v Dienne Plc [2009] EWHC 2693 (Ch) Mr Justice Briggs (as he then was) set out the fact that the CPR introduced a new concept of proportionality and as part of the overriding objective it was an abuse of process to pursue litigation where the value to the litigant of a successful outcome was so small as to make the exercise pointless viewed against the expenditure of court time (see generally paragraphs 44 – 47). As he said in paragraph 47 "committal proceedings are an appropriate way as a last resort of seeking to obtain compliance with the court's order".
I have referred to Mr King's evidence which is unchallenged that Mr Ashley is pursuing a vendetta against him. Further, I questioned what damage was being sustained by SDI even if it established the breaches. I cannot see what disadvantage sustained by reason of the revelation that meetings had taken place and would take place in the future to discuss the continuing relationship when it is clear that it is at least arguable that the existence of that passed meeting and future meeting was in the public domain or was being leaked to the press by SDI.
Equally the evidence has shown no details of the contents that were allegedly disclosed has been identified either in the video or in the Sky Article. Once again this seems to me to be a very slender basis for committal proceedings.
There is then the question of costs. I was presented with schedules of costs for the parties totalling over £300,000. That was not limited to the committal application it is true to say but nevertheless significant amounts of money and court time were being spent on this application. It seems to me that SDI regards the committal application as merely another method of enforcing bargains. I refer in this context to Mr King's very reasonable letter on 4th August 2015 seeking a way forward. Mr Blair's letter was equally pacific. The response of SDI was to issue the present application which had the flaws in it which I have identified above and appears to me to be utterly disproportionate compared with what benefits would ensue.
It is therefore in my view undoubtedly the case that SDI's whole procedure is an abuse and it should be dismissed for that reason in addition to the various failings that I have identified above. That is not to say that Mr King may not be found to have made the disclosures upon which SDI relies when this matter is tried, but even assuming that he did breach the June Order as alleged it is inappropriate to police those breaches with the heavy hand of committal proceedings. These are my reasons for dismissing SDI's committal application."
