Combination Can Invigorate A Region, Lugar Tells Conference On City-County Merger
By Jason Rosenbaum • Feb 27, 2014

Former U.S. Sen. Richard Lugar says bringing local governments can strengthen the health – and brighten the future -- of urban communities.

The Indiana Republican was the keynote speaker for a St. Louis University Law School symposium on merging St. Louis and St. Louis County. He was a key figure in banding together city of Indianapolis with Marion County in the 1970s.
Lugar says merging the two governments had skeptics. But he says it attracted jobs, sports teams and tourists – and reinvigorated civic life.
"One of the ways to be competitive right now is to have a very strong urban fabric, a very strong local government that is able to be attractive to jobs, inventions and sports teams and tourists, but likewise also invigorates life itself," Lugar said.
The symposium on merging St. Louis and St. Louis County may not resolve a debate that's raged on since 1876. But SLU law professor Anders Walker says he hopes Friday's event at the law school's downtown headquarters stokes conversation about a topic that's gained plenty of attention in recent months.
"I doubt that the conference is going to come up with answers. But there does appear to be growing support both the city and in the county for a merger," Walker said. "I think that the possibility of actually getting this on the table as a policy project could happen."
Walker is one of numerous panelists participating in the day-long conference, called United We Stand, Divided We Fall: The Reunification of St. Louis City and County, which explores the impact a merger could have on public safety, governmental organization and urbanization.
St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay and St. Louis County Executive Charlie Dooley spoke at the symposium. And Walker says Lugar's presence likely brought more interests to the event.
"One thing that Sen. Lugar will bring is some attention. And I think that's already happened," Walker said. "His presence will lend an insider's presence on what happened in Indianapolis."
The afternoon panels featured political leaders such as St. Louis Treasurer Tishaura Jones, business leaders like St. Louis Regional Chamber CEO Joe Reagan and public safety officials like St. Louis Police Chief Sam Dotson and St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar. Walker says the conference features speakers skeptical of a merger, such as University of Missouri-St. Louis political science professor Terry Jones.
"We're hoping those panels will get into the nitty-gritty details on what the merger would entail," Walker said.
Increasing prominence
The issue of bringing together the city and the county has been a source of contention since the two jurisdictions split in 1876. Several efforts to reunite the city and the county have faltered over the years, most recently in 1962.

Still, the topic remains a hot one on the local political scene. Late last year, a group called Better Together formed to examine the potential of a city-county reunion. Dave Leopolitz – the group's community-based study director -- will be on one of the conference's panels.
There are plenty of unsettled questions about bringing the two governmental entities together, including what type of "merger" should occur.
Some – such as Slay – have advocated having the city join the county as a municipality. Others – such as the St. Louis Post-Dispatch Editorial Page – have broached the possibility have the city and county effectively be a giant municipality known as "St. Louis."
Even after the question of governmental jurisdiction is answered, other questions remain. That includes whether voters across the state or only voters in the city and county should decide the merger proposal. There are also concerns about a merger's impact on the city's earning tax; the composition of the St. Louis County Council; and whether current municipalities would want to be a part of a consolidated "St. Louis."
And then there are the political calculations: Some Republicans in the county have already started to organize against any sort of merger proposal. At the same time, some African-American political leaders in the city may oppose the move, because they fear their political clout may be diluted in St. Louis County.
Walker said the "policy and politics" of such a merger "are inseparable." He hopes that the audience gives their take – both pro and con – on the possibility.
"I think a merger has got be a win-win. It's got to be something that makes sense for the county and it's got to be something that makes sense for the city," Walker said. "On the surface, I think there are some reasons for considering a merger. Not really a particular kind of merger, but just considering the region's national reputation.
"When most people think about St. Louis, they think of the city of St. Louis," he added. "Even if they live in the county – let's say they live in Kirkwood or Webster Groves – most people are probably going to associate you with the city of St. Louis."
Walker said 290 people signed up for the event. That, he said, shows that people around the region are interested in the topic.
"In planning the event, we wanted to do something of interest and relevance to the local community, underscoring SLU's commitment to the city and region of St. Louis," Walker said. "And we thought the city-county merger would be something that would draw attention, bring people down to see our new facility and be of interest."

A new coalition called Better Together launched an effort today Tuesday to study whether St. Louis city and county should re-unite.
Yet coalition members were quick to explain they're not advocating for a merger.
"We are not advocating reentry. We're not advocating merger," said former Ambassador George Herbert Walker III, who is chairman of the group. "We're just saying let's get all the data together and then as a group decide what is best for St. Louis and the city of St. Louis at this time."
Critics of City-County Merger Launch Effort To Block It
By Jo Mannies • Dec 26, 2013
St. Louis Public Radio
Some opponents of the effort to merge the city of St. Louis with St. Louis County have announced a new group – Common Sense for St. Louis – to fight any sort of ballot measure.
"We're truly grassroots,'' said spokeswoman Jennifer Bird. "We're not funded by a billionaire.''
Climate Change Prompts Renewed Interest In Native Missouri Grapes

If you are a fan of wine, particularly European wines, from France, Italy or Germany, you can be proud of the role Missouri plays in creating that wine.
Ever since the mid-1800s roots from Missouri grapes have been grafted on to European varieties, because of their natural resistance to certain pests.
SLU Chairman Of The Board Steps Down

The Chairman of the Board of St. Louis University is resigning.
Tom Brouster gave notice to the board, citing the need to spend more time at his day job and with family.
Brouster says his decision was not motivated by the turmoil that has engulfed the university over the past 8 months, including a no-confidence vote against SLU President, Father Lawrence Biondi.


NSA Hacked the Election, Not the Russians!
On this episode of The Geopolitical Report, we examine the unsubstantiated claim by President Obama, Democrats, and Republicans that the 2016 presidential election was fixed by Vladimir Putin and the Russians. The Washington Post and The New York Times are leading the charge to delegitimize the election and unseat Donald Trump. Absent from the debate is the fact the CIA has specialized in meddling in foreign elections and has orchestrated coups and assassinations of political leaders for decades. The NSA, the national security state, and its partners have at their disposal the technology to influence elections, not by changing votes but by using psychological operations and propaganda. The NSA and the CIA are at the forefront of that effort.
Although there is ample circumstantial evidence to suspect the NSA could hack, and then leak, any email account there is still (to my knowledge) no direct correlation to third-party, verified, evidence that reveals the true identity of the entity (or entities) that hacked the DNC and/or any official US election system. Care should be taken before any concrete conclusions are drawn. Newsbud's credibility depends on it. As with 9/11, the truth will probably reveal itself in stages, over a long period of time.
Robert, I had precisely the same reaction. This is a good video, but I have to admit I'm uncomfortable with a trend I've been noticing with these reports where Kurt's making relatively conclusive statements; in this case that the "NSA Hacked the Election, Not the Russians", instead of presenting arguments that make a case for as the grounds for speculation. I see good arguments here to support the potential thesis for allegations of the NSA's involvement in the disclosure of the Clinton/DNC emails (which seems to be the only remotely tangible piece of "evidence" that those trying to push the theory that the Russians "hacked" the election have presented). However, due to the secretive nature of who had access to this information; certainly the NSA, but potentially any number of players who stood to benefit from its disclosure and probably could've accessed it through various means (it's not like Hillary Clinton has a spectacular record when it comes to safeguarding sensitive data;), I think the best we can really do is speculate and my concern is that not being careful enough about making a clear distinction between research, evidence of conspiracy, speculation, and conclusions holds the potential to undermine the credibility of Nimmo's otherwise stellar reporting.
I can see where you two are coming from (Robert and Benny) and what your concerns are about maintaining Newsbud's journalistic integrity.
There is another side to the coin however.
and tell me what the tally is? What proof did they present for this assertion?
Then tell me what the tally is for other news media stating that the NSA hacked the elections?
rather than a hard evidence-based piece.
What makes Newsbud's reporting uniquely credible and extremely valuable is Newsbud's relentless refusal to join the MSM's hysterical parroting of the "powers-that-shouldn't-be's" current party line, whatever that is at any given moment. Kurt's piece amply demonstrates the ridiculousness of the MSM's obvious propaganda and the larger psy-op that fuels it. I agree with Benny's point that the discovery and exposure of who (or what) actually "hacked" anything would be the far more fascinating and useful undertaking. I can't agree with the idea of interpreting Kurt's piece as an exercise in mockery as that would reduce his thorough, well constructed work to cynical passive-aggression which, I firmly believe, was never his intention. As I can understand it, Kurt's work stands on its own. Conclusions, at this point in the inquiry, need not have been drawn, as they add no further impact than the information already presented.
A couple of observations. Firstly, Assange is adamant that the emails did not come from any "State". That clears the Russian government of involvement. Secondly, listening to interviews with Mr. William Binney, who is apparently the architect of the NSA's surveillance system, gives credence to Kurt's conclusions. He is worth a listen.
Just my own thought here. If I were a member of the US intelligence network, especially someone in the field working for the CIA or any other branch, I would be terrified at the thought of HRC in the office of the President. What with the way she handled classified information as the secretary of state. Not difficult at all for me to believe that someone in the NSA or indeed any branch of the US intelligence community would be more than willing to contribute to derailing her campaign.
I so agree with that conclusion. The reopening of the FBI investigation in the weeks before the election was far more damaging to HRC than Wikileaks publication of Podesta emails as it had the psychological effect of legitimising the principle that HRC was crooked through and through. There is no doubt in my mind that the security establishment would view HRC as too dangerous to their status quo to countenance such a scenario. The security establishment like puppets in the oval office and Clinton is no puppet. I still believe Trump is.
Yeah, to me the reopening the FBI investigation was the real manipulation of the election (at least in the context where this "hacking" BS is concerned). My feeling is that Hillary was all but guaranteed the presidency and that the whole thing with Trump was a matter of propping up someone who was so appalling, frightening, and offensive to various groups that, even if they despised Clinton, the fear of a Trump presidency would be enough to motivate enough people to ensure a plausible enough margin of victory that the powers that shouldn't be could tweak the results even if she didn't win. Sure, the Russians favored Trump over Clinton for quite rational reasons: Clinton inc has been pushing the anti-Russia rhetoric hard while Trump at least made overtures that he wanted cooperative relationships with other countries. I'm not convinced one way or the other what that's going to look like, but I can see how Russians would be more inclined to wait to see what's behind door number two when door number one is a threatening, finger waving, neoliberal chicken hawk, with a chance to win a trip to a fallout bunker.
I agree 100% with Kurt's analysis of this Russian "hacking" propaganda, to use my words not his, is a hypocritical, steaming pile of grizzly (four letter word that isn't "step"), but I'm not convinced, as some seem to be implying that Hillary was ousted (or ditched in favor of) Trump out of concerns of her deviating from the standard presidential agenda. She's a puppet that's been walking the walk for long enough that the powers that shouldn't be probably can just wind her up and let her go in the direction she's been pointed in. Apparently either that "direction" has changed or there are simply too many layers of liability (perhaps even her health, which I haven't seen discussed much), that even though Trump is frighteningly unpredictable and impulsive, he's a safer bet than Clinton.
Before I forget, on that last note, Trump's comments about sending the national guard to deal with violence in Chicago might be ominous.
I agree that the remark that the NSA "hacked" the election was partly a flippant, satirical statement, and also its what they do, the NSA, CIA, etc , always try to influence elections, in dirty, underhanded ways, so of course they did. We should allow for insight, intuitive awareness, etc too, not always waiting for massive amounts of physical evidence. Sibel etc are excellent at that deep insight and awareness. I dont believe it matters much who hacked into the DNC, Clinton emails. The emails showed what they showed and we know whats going on. Im sure thats what Kurt means.
Also, to say HRC is no puppet is just assanine. Shes as puppet as they come, thats obvious. Shes far more of a puppet than Trump. Nonetheless, They ll do their best to make Trump a puppet and control him as much as they can.
I dont think the empire cares that much anymore which empire party nominee is president, they ll control them anyway. Thats whats been going on ever since they assassinated the Kennedys. Thats when they took over the Demecratic party. Of coures they prefer one whos already a puppet but will go with the other candidate if they think it will be better for them.
More importantly, as I think I've stated elsewhere here, Trump seems to be so impulsive and unpredictable that I just can't understand how the PTsB would feel like he can been adequately controlled and prevented from going off script. I guess, similar to what you suggested, the veneer of legitimacy that's been deemed necessary to keep people in line and in check doesn't even seem necessary in the midst of so many layers of post-reality obfuscation at this point. I'm stubbornly holding out hope that this level of audacity will expose enough cracks for us to making a greater impact in chipping away some of the facade.
I'm with you basically Benny and Tomcat.
Here's my take on how Trump could have been 'allowed' to be elected by the deep state.
Their power/control over elections and such is not as black and white/simple as some would have us believe.
There actually are some things going on in this world that they don't have direct/immediate/complete control over.
Now of course, Trump could end up being mostly 'all show' and not pose a threat to the establishment in the end.
However should he try to shake things up in a direction counter to the likings of the deep state, he better keep a close watch behind his back at all times.

The colour is already a very pale yellow. The nose has intense fresh fruit aromas (pineapple, passion fruit, and mango) accompanied by very attractive floral nuances (rose and acacia blossoms) as well as a touch of vanilla. This wine has a great deal of personality on the palate as well as beautiful volume, substance, and a perfect balance between alcohol, sugar, and acidity. The overall equilibrium is extremely elegant and lively. The complexity, smoothness, and length this wine will acquire during barrel ageing are sure to make this an altogether impressive Y'quem.
Squarely on the tropical side of the spectrum, with mango, papaya and pineapple fruit laced with a marmalade note. Long and very caressing through the finish, but never heady or overpowering, as orange pâte de fruit, ginger and singed almond accents lend cut and precision. Shows the heat of the vintage while retaining energy and drive. Impressive.-Non-blind Yquem vertical (July 2014). Drink now through 2040.
Ex-chateau bottle tasted at the property. The 2003 Yquem was picked from 17th September after an explosion of botrytis until 26th September in one trie. It has a textbook, limpid silvery/golden hue. The nose is very seductive with lifted scents of dried honey, almond, hazelnut and just a faint hint of creme caramel all with fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with a refined opening. That trait of creme caramel is there loitering like a truant schoolboy in the background, but then it moves into the mid-palate and really shows its class: wonderful delineation and poise, perfect acidity and an almost pixilated finish. There is just a touch of alcohol on the aftertaste although you have to have a very sensitive palate to feel it. This is a lovely Yquem, though I would not place it within the first tier. Drink now-2030+ Tasted April 2013.


Manchester City have confirmed the signing of Riyad Mahrez from Leicester City, the 27-year-old costing a club record £60 million (€73m) that could rise to £75m (€85m) with add-ons.
Mahrez becomes Pep Guardiola's first major signing of the summer with the manager having targeted a wide forward and defensive midfielder as his priorities in this transfer window.
The 27-year-old has signed a five-year contract will wear the number 26 shirt. Mahrez, who was a key player in Leicester's 2016 title-winning side, told Manchester City's official website: "I am so pleased to have joined City, a side playing great football under Pep Guardiola.
"Watching them from afar has been a pleasure. Pep is committed to playing attacking football, which is a perfect for me, and City's performances last season were outstanding. They're redefining the English game and I wanted to be a part of it.
Mahrez's acquisition means Guardiola will now hope to finally land Jorginho from Napoli though it is thought Chelsea are also interested.


Melbourne Victory played Daegu in their away shirt after shelving their ACL sponsorship deal.
Melbourne Victory put their Asian Champions League shirt sponsorship deal on ice on the day they announced it amid concerns over the sponsor's potential links to the gambling industry.
Victory signed a deal with Hong Kong-based media agency Kaishi Entertainment, announcing the arrangement ahead of their first ACL match against Daegu FC on Tuesday.
But within minutes of kick-off, the A-League champions announced that the deal was shelved after they, along with several fans, noticed Twitter images of a woman reported to be Kaishi Entertainment's general manager Yi Jing Chen promoting a gambling company called KashBet.
Further searches by the club, journalists and fans showed other links to Kashbet.
Although the Asian Football Confederation, which organises the ACL, had cleared the sponsorship, it forbids gambling sponsors.
Kaishi has said it is not a front for Kashbet, but Victory's partnership with the Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation gave the club another reason to be concerned.
They opted to call off the deal and instead had to play the game in their away shirt with home shorts and socks.
A different solution was found for goalkeeper Lawrence Thomas' green shirt -- a piece of green sticky tape over the Kaishi insignia.
With Kaishi denying betting links, club and company will look to revisit the partnership in time for Victory's next match, against Sanfrecce Hiroshima next Tuesday.

KUALA LUMPUR: Celebrity chef Datuk Chef Wan was aware of the consequences after 'joking' about the missing MH370 flight on his Instagram account @chefwan58.
On his latest Instagram post, he said that the post was indeed a joke as he had wanted to see the public's reaction after uploading the photo, which was later deleted.
"I believe that some have joked about this incident within the past few days but I put it on Instagram deliberately to see the reactions.
"Within 10 minutes, I was contacted by Ayie of Murai.com… It's true that Malaysians like to talk bad about others even though the intention was done to make others laugh at a silly joke," he said on Instagram.
In the post, Chef Wan was posing with a piece of object which he said was part of the missing MH370 aircraft which disappeared on March 8.
In a joking manner, he said that the object was part of a toilet door from a house on the beach in Morib.
The entry has since been deleted after receiving 701 likes and much criticism from his Instagram followers.
Meanwhile, in a poll conducted by AstroAwani.com, 80.85 of the respondents had wanted Chef Wan to apologise to Malaysians and Malaysia Airlines, while 6.98 percent were neutral on the issue.


"... only that they be spineless ... "
How little courage we have. How tightly we cling to our security. Baldwin knew this. In an essay titled "From Nationalism, Colonialism, and the United States" in 1961 he wrote, "The tragedy of this country now is that most of the people who say they care about it do not care. What they care about is their safety and their profits." Will we follow the command of Christ to walk the road that leads to danger? Will we give away the things that hold us back - money, security, safety, power. Will we stand up with a straight spine to follow the call to discipleship?

Know your rights to vote safely and without intimidation
One week from November 3 elections, Attorney General Ellison releases guidance for voters about federal and state laws that protect them from interference or intimidation
October 27, 2020 (SAINT PAUL) — Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison today released guidance to the public about federal and state laws that protect voters from interference or intimidation, entitled "Know your rights to vote safely and without intimidation." He released the following statement:
"Minnesota has a history of running the best, highest-turnout elections in America. Minnesotans have every reason to expect that the November 3 elections in our state will run as safely, smoothly, and securely as always.
"Minnesotans can also expect that they will be able to vote without intimidation or interference. Minnesota and federal law are clear: it is strictly illegal to intimidate or interfere with voters.
"As Attorney General, I do not expect to have to enforce these laws. But I will not hesitate to enforce them to the fullest extent if necessary to protect Minnesotans' right to vote."
Attorney General Ellison encourages anyone who experiences any interference or intimidation in voting or attempting to vote to report it to the Minnesota Secretary of State's office at 877-600-VOTE.

Batter Blaster: it's not just for breakfast anymore. The breakfast-expediting company, known for packing delicious organic pancake and waffle batter into a recyclable, whipped cream-style canister, recently announced plans to delve into the music world as a tastemaker (sorry, we had to) of sorts with help from Zoove's StarStar Numbers.
StarStar Numbers makes initiatives like this quite simple. Call **BLAST (**25278), and you'll receive a text message link to a website offering a daily MP3 file. You can then download that particular song (by automatically emailing it to yourself as an attachment), email the download link to a friend, stream it to your phone, or click through a link to buy the album from which the day's song is featured. Batter Blaster pledges to post a new song every day for the next year, and they're all free to download and share.
Too often, promotions like this include the lamest music imaginable, but not so with Batter Blaster and Zoove. Today's song is Wavves' "King of the Beach," the title track from Nathan William's (a.k.a. Wavves) fantastic teen punk album from last summer. Batter Blaster is touting this as a particularly in-tune collection of bands and songs.
As such, they've advertised "Blast" as a venture that will tout a wide range of bands, including southern soul/roots duo The Civil Wars, California noise-punk enthusiasts Weekend, soul shouter Charles Bradley, and indie hot topic The Dodos.
To try it, call **BLAST (**25278) from any cellphone capable of receiving text messages and browsing the web.

Luzon, Visayas combined peak demand in May at 14,380MW
Power demand levels in Luzon and Visayas have reached their peak demand at 14,380 megawatts (MW) this May, a 5.27% increase from last year's 13,660MW.
Data from the Independent Market Operator of the Philippines (IEMOP) said that the Luzon Grid's peak demand reached 12,103MW, while the Visayas Grid's reached 2,285MW – both recorded on May 12. The increase in demand was attributed to the economy recovering as businesses continue to resume their operations amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
"More so, for the onset of May, the nation has still encountered remnants of the dry season which forced people to consume more electricity with the increased use of air-conditioning systems," IEMOP said in a statement.
Supply levels also increased for Luzon and Visayas this month amounting to 15,406MW, up 1,411MW from the previous month. The growth in supply was due to the resumption of coal-fired and geothermal power plants that were previously on outage during the latter half of April.
"Likewise, the Department of Energy, through its Energy Task Force Election, stayed on top of the entire demand-supply situation which further paved the way for the ample supply levels during the election period," IEMOP added.
Coal remained the country's top source of power at 4,723 gigawatt-hours (GWh) or 60.9% of the power generation mix. Natural gas contributed 1,681 GWh or 21.6% of the mix, and geothermal with 780 GWh or ten percent.

Bear Pit serves up evening of pure entertainment
Wyrd Sisters, Bear Pit Theatre, Rother Street, Stratford, Sept 26-29. This was my first visit to the Bear Pit Theatre and I'm sure it won't be my last. What a charming, friendly theatre, created 10 years ago to support local arts groups. There was a lovely community feel among the crew and this created the right ambience for an evening of pure entertainment. Terry Pratchett's Wyrd Sisters is staged by The Phoenix Players, an amateur theatre group that has been running in Stratford since 1945. The story was adapted for the stage by Stephen Briggs and directed by Phoenix Players' Nick Johnson – and what a fantastic job he did for his debut as director – as well as playing one of the guards. The Wyrd Sisters are three witches: Granny Weatherwax played by Margot McCleary who is the rather severe chief witch in this little coven; then there's the very likeable, pipe smoking, pink Dr Marten boot-wearing Nanny Ogg alias Karen McDonald; and the sweet and innocent novice witch, Magrat Garlick played by Freya Boardman. Together, they plan for the exiled Prince to return to his rightful place as head of the land, and to bring the wicked Duke Leonal Felmet (Adam Clarke) and the even wickeder Lady Felmet (Katie Cherry), to justice for murdering the king. It's funny, and the characters play their parts with total commitment, each one bringing a unique touch to their role, and making the whole thing a real pleasure to watch. With 23 scene changes, it's a snappily paced story, certainly no chance to get bored, and hats off to the boys and girls backstage plus the lighting and sound engineers, who kept the whole thing moving along so smoothly. A great production, a lot of fun for the audience – and I think for the cast too.

Dubai contractor Arabtec appoints new acting CFO amidst management reshuffle
Adel Al Wahedi replaces Peter Pollard, who has been made the group CEO
Dubai-based contractor Arabtec Holding has appointed Adel Al Wahedi as the acting group chief financial officer to replace Peter Pollard, who has been made the group CEO.
Al Wahedi was previously at Abu Dhabi Ports Company, before which he served as the CFO of Petrofac Emirates, Mubadala Petroleum and the deputy CFO of Etisalat Misr.
Pollard replaced Hamish Tyrwhitt, who stepped down from his role as group CEO in May.
Read: Dubai contractor Arabtec CEO resigns
"In 2019, Arabtec will continue to focus on the collection of legacy receivables, shortening payment cycles, improving working capital and strengthening the balance sheet which includes debt refinancing to provide a sustainable platform for Arabtec's future growth," the company said in a bourse statement.
Pollard said: "We will continue to diversify our backlog into infrastructure and industrial sectors with geographic focus on UAE, KSA, Egypt, Bahrain and Kuwait to create value for our stakeholders."
Arabtec reported a 49.5 per cent drop in its first quarter net profit to reach Dhs31.8m, down from Dhs63m in Q1 2018.
Revenues during the quarter fell by over 16 per cent to Dhs2bn, while the group's project backlog stood at Dhs14.8bn.
The company said it experienced a contraction in margins year on year during Q1, attributable to lower revenue from a slowdown in awards in the construction sector coupled with a number of legacy projects closing out in the coming months.
The group also recognised an Dhs7.8m loss on its investment in Depa, it said.

Please no. I'm all for another gamera movie. Hell, gamera V. Shin godzilla would be awesome!
But the monsterverse is about megafauna. MAYBE if they took away the flying saucer powers he would fit, but with all the biotechnology stuff, the mana mumbo jumbo, ETC, he just wouldn't work.

The difference with Kong was that he's an recognizable cinematic icon (That also had crossover with Godzilla nearly sixty years ago may I remind you due to Toho honoring the character for being one of their creators inspirations) who began the giant monster genre and one of the inspirations for Godzilla whereas Gamera's from an almost dead franchise only barely alive because of the kaiju fandom. I admit though if anyone can revive Gamera, its definitely Legendary by getting the rights from his owners but as you said though 'unlikely but not impossible'. There's a small chance it might happen but I really wouldn't hold my breath.

Let's say somehow, SOMEHOW this was a possibility. Many aspects of Gamera will need to be removed. Just off the top of my head:
1. NO ANNOYING KIDS THAT ARE "FRIENDS" TO GAMERA. THIS WILL MAKE THE MOVIE EXTREMELY HORRIBLE
2. Gamera's flying capabilities will need to be removed
3. The infamous plot line that Gamera is a creation of the Atlantians will need to be completely removed
Long Live The King
^Okay I'm just going to say it again. The MonsterVerse isn't trying to be realistic in terms of real life but rather how people would react to giant monsters appearing. Honestly I see the MonsterVerse going the same route as the original Godzilla series did, started out grounded in reality (Godzilla, King Kong) before going to mystical prospects (Mothra, Shobijin), then to aliens (King Ghidorah). Judging from KotM we're probably getting mystical prospects and aliens which the former I wouldn't count as realistic, so why would Gamera an artificial bio-weapon from an ancient advanced race be any different from an supposed Goddess of earth? Just saying.

just because it isn't trying to be completely realistic doesn't mean there aren't any limits? Artificial Bioweapons are insanely far off.
Its entirely possible for mothra just to be an animal who is worshipped as a goddess without any magical aspects. To say alien life is unrealistic is kind of silly, seeing as how our universe is infinite; it's a 100% guarantee that, somewhere out there, there is life. So yeah, maybe the monsterverse isn't trying to be realistic: But that doesn't mean it's going to go all out.
It would be like adding Polka-Dot to the DCEU.
SenseiTeriyakiV wrote: just because it isn't trying to be completely realistic doesn't mean there aren't any limits? Artificial Bioweapons are insanely far off.
I honestly don't see that. I do see Mothra being given her mystical nature. It's just not Mothra without that, that's like taking Godzilla's nuclear origin away, I mean yeah sure Legendary Godzilla is a bit different but at least they kept the whole nuclear origin thing related with him being an ancient Permian creature that feeds off of radiation and was attempted to be killed by using nukes in 1954. Also that's why I didn't say latter since I know alien life isn't unrealistic.
We'll see in GKotM. If my interpretation is right and we won't see aliens or mystical prospects, then it will be extremely evident that the Monsterverse is trying to be realistic in showing not only how society will react, but also the reality if a real monster like Godzilla and co. existed.
GodzillaFan1990's wrote:
I'm going to have to disagree there. Mothra, when it comes down to it, is just a huge insect. the mystical stuff isn't vital. I would love for the natives to THINK she is magic, but she doesn't need to be.
Either way, even if mothra IS mystical, she still doesn't really possess anything as outlandish as flying saucer powers(Which are somehow achieved with biological science?).

I do think they will have it. With Mothra as I said in my above post, removing her mystical nature is like removing Godzilla's nuclear origin which at least with their incarnation of Godzilla, they still managed to keep his nuclear relation intact. But yes you're right, until the movie comes out, all we can do is speculate.

Godzilla's nuclear origins and Mothra's mystical prospects are completely different in terms of realism.
I am guessing Legendary might go with more of a 1960s Mothra style, which isn't that mystical but more like Mothra being thought of as such by people on the island or wherever Mothra will originate.
So in order to have a good movie....We must completely eliminate ALL fun and core aspects of a character?
Isn't that what DC's current movies do?
gojira012 wrote: So in order to have a good movie....We must completely eliminate ALL fun and core aspects of a character?
What? No. That's what would have to happen to have Gamera fit in the monsterverse: that's why I want him in his own universe, a monsterverse gamera movie wouldn't be a good one.
In order to have a SUCCESSFUL movie money wise, some things (not all aspects of a character) will need to be changed. As noted by the person above, all these certain aspects of Gamera will be removed if Gamera is introduced into the Monsterverse. It will kind of mess up his character in some aspects.

But then that's basically like 2017 movie Megazord and Goldar

Gamera doesn't have to change: He can go wild like shin godzilla. Just not in the monsterverse.

Toby – I just spent three months touring alone by Europe… When you don't buy a Eurail go , guide your prepare tickets prematurely if possible as they get significantly dearer as the departure date approaches. Also College Students can do their Practicum for 1-2 years abroad in Foreign Universities freed from cost and typically part of the residing bills are paid for through Welfare benefits whereas additionally half time jobs are discovered for the students.
As at all times there are exceptions to the rule, when delay/rescheduling occurs resulting from safety or climate situations or when touring internationally (particularly inbound travel to the US, e.g. flying from Europe to the US). All the opposite schools/universities in that area are VERY unkind to transfer students (I had 77 credits, most would only take 20 aside from College of New Orleans (sixty five)).
For travel recommendation particularly for France, go to the FCO Journey Aware France web site web page dedicated to France. Europe is overflowing with bicycle-friendly city that function tourist bike borrowing programs for reasonable. If your Europe journey is extra of a weekender than an expedition, you most likely will be capable of get away with just hand baggage.

1)Are you the kind of person who would love to talk in office meetings, but always end up sitting quietly in a team argument?
2)Are you the one whose opinions are never heard amongst your colleagues?
3)Are you that same human being who is always looked down by everyone when they converse with you?
4)Do you lack argumentative skills?
If your answer is YES, this post is just for you. This morning, Chronicwriter spent nearly 20 minutes in the loo to come out with a solution for people like you.
If your answer is NO, you can still read this post. I am sure that you know that everything written here is crap. The intention is to see that bright smile back on your face.
Consider the scenario of you being in a room with ten of your colleagues and the discussion is getting hotter. The Boss is sitting chairing the argument. This is your opportunity to gain his attention by talking wisely. But If you are the kind of guy who doesn't even understand what the topic is, then you gotta take my advice.
Let us assume that the Topic is "Pricing the New-product" . Of course No one in the meeting room will have any idea about what might be the best pricing mechanism for the product in talk. The Product manager (The Boss) would also not have any idea on what is happening in the room. This is where you gotta understand the reason behind the meeting. Usually Bosses conduct meetings because they would have seen this picture.
If you had gone through the above picture, you would know that the Boss would be the one who would usually do the initial talk. This initial talk would go on for some 30 minutes. This is the time when you are supposed to eat the biscuits, drink coffee and send text messages via your hand phone to your friends. Do not ask silly questions to offend your boss. Let the boss do all the talking. After the initial speech is over, you and your colleagues get the opportunity to discuss and brainstorm to arrive at a conclusion.
Always remember to start the conversation after the boss finishes his speech. Make it sure that you give a dizzy feeling to your team-mates in your starting lines. So always start with a quantitative analytical report.(In other words, Speak Numbers). So please dont start the argument by saying," We should price our product cheaper to penetrate the market". Instead just say:" The average product line leverage buying capacity from the customer side is $86 per month which is 24 % higher than the average buying capacity of an individual customer"
The ground rule is simple. No one should understand what you speak.Round one is yours. You would have surely got your boss's attention. But remember that all your 9 colleagues are also there to get the boss's attention . So there would surely be one Smart-Head who would pop up the question," Where did you get that figures from?". Do not fret. Just make up an instant answer, " This is from the Haylard and Montengmor Report on retail products and it was published in the European Journal of Marketing -Volume III" End this line with " Haven't you read it yet?" .Say this in a stern voice.This is the exact moment you are supposed to turn and look at your boss and smile gently.
Now you have made the rest of the team members feel so small. So you can start munching on the doughnut and give others an opportunity to speak.It is impossible for anyone in the room to continue from your initial opening statements. So invariably the team members would try to change the topic and take it in a different direction. In the mean time, make it sure that you finish the doughnut and get ready for the second tactic.
The second tactic is very risky and it should be used with great precision. The following five points should be memorised before you use the second tactic.
In addition please memorise the abbreviations MTD, SRSL, TQM (Total quality management). Please do not ask me what the first two abbreviations stand for. Just expand them using your creative brains.
Now I hope you would have memorized the five words/phrases and also the acronyms. Now I will explain how to use these phrases in a meeting.
Suppose you want to say," Class-B customers would prefer to buy 3 products per month but they do not have enough money". I can bet you that you won't win an argument by talking plain simple sentences like that. If you want to shock your team mates the second time say this," So let me put it this way,in terms of product buying capacity of the Class-B Customer,the demographics can be segmented according to their negative buying power per se, as it were MTD."
Only an idiot would challenge this statement. Now you would have even made your boss look very inferior. So even your boss might be scared to ask any doubts and make a fool of himself at this juncture. Now just sit back, relax and watch all your team mates faces. They would be shell shocked for sure. But do not relax for more than five minutes, because by then they would have regained their composture. But even if they regain their compusture, do not worry because you still havent driven the nail in the coffin.
Humor is the name of the final nail. You have taken the discussion to a whole new level and your colleagues would be in the middle of an heated argument. Time would be running out of their hands and hence they would be waiting to pounce on each other at the slightest of mistakes committed by the other team mate. So this is where you should drive the nail in the coffin. Always keep a few sarcastical lines in your memory. You can use these lines when someone tries to corner you. For example remember these three remarks.
Also do not forget to use the classic remark: Are you feeling uncomfortable?
You say: In 2008 the Finance minister Mr. Fernandez issued..
When nothing works out and if your colleague has cornered you to the wall, look into his eyes and say " You remind me of my strict grandfather" and before he could reply, end your statement by saying," Are you feeling uncomfortable?". If he says No, you can start it all over again with the quantitative analytical report.
Meetings would never have been this much fun in your life.
though i dont fall into the above stated category, i still read it. all bcoz you toiled it after 20 minutes of time in the loo.
nice analysis there. No seriously. You have indeed done some serious research.
this happens to me all the time. When i write some humorous post, i endup sounding serious. but when i write a serious and poignant post, people comment that it was the funniest post they read since long.i guess something seriously wrong with my sense of humour.
"You say: In 2008 the Finance minister Mr. Fernandez issued..
You say: Don't be too defensive"
I have occasionally found myself as one of the three types of persons and I have found my answers. Yay!
But I loved your post. Great tips to make your colleagues look : buzz off and tell your boss that : I'm a genius.
I am wondering what will happen on the day I will become the boss...!
Chriz... you are damn clever. Yes it brought a huge grin.. but your wit reflects in every sentence.
5)Consider this scenario (Chronicwriter started this post with this line)"
hahaha,thanks chriz,it must be handy in some time :D..
this is awesome tho ! my very own blogger buddy b-school ! hahahahah!
This is seriously a grt post dude...u rock!
So let me put it this way, your blog rocks in terms of qualtiy per se.
make that soon post like "real soon"
I think im goin to ask my bschool people for a fee refund...they can never teach all this...haha..nice one.
ha ha h ahah.... the exact reason i held meetings at my job previously.. and d exact way i used baffle ppl with figure n pie charts n stuff... lolzzz..
this is ur best yet!!!
Chriz......really a great post....!!! luv reading this....bro ur really a freaky....!!!!
The ground rule is simple. I love it!!
Just came from night shift and it was worth checking your page mate.
MTD : Month-To-Date : We use this term quite frequently @ work.
Even at times we all sound funny etcetera but maybe I've not mastered the art of writing hilariously funny posts yet.
Yep, got the bright smile back!! So funny because its so true!! During meetings, I feel like an orange in a basket of apples..really!
Btw post was REALLY funny :D !!
One of my managers use this one very frequently in discussion and meetings- "So let me put it this way" - Now many people have started imitating it.
What u started writing as a humor post probably turned up as an informative post. I agree, sometimes professionalism is more about show-off than substance!! But not always so..
WOW! That's explains a lot about you :) Rock on, dude! The BOSS might be reading this JK!
This happens not only in meeting even the smallest of discussions and status updates.
I realised it all after reading ur posts.
Ha ha...Meetings are good excuses to sleep! But the constant suplly of tea and coffee, do let me take the nap while all others Yap..yap and yap..
Mate, you are tips are a little late, but I can still make the use of those witty phrases!!
Wooo....Very informative. It always happens. Gunners do exist in almost every team. :-) And its fun to be one!
Will use these strategies at my work..Nice post.
If there's anything I HATE in my work life, well then thats MEETINGS. At Meetings, I simply sleep with my eyes open.
Have tried such tactics already and I got the name "Araathu party" from my PM. After this I never open my mouth in meeting, I just nod my head for everything.
looks like our policy in exams..
as a techie, can't stand meetings but, seems like there are ways of making them interesting enough.
I never in my faintest thoughts, had any idea on this concept of winning the argument...hehe... thanks for sharing ur GYAAN with us.
you know wat chriz..i got a job(yes first job ) and iwas reading ur blog in office :|..big mistake..
and i tasted office-public- humiliation :(..
are u taking any more classes some time?
hey chriz...this is seriously a nice post....feeling very sleepy now i dont know why!!
What a brilliant ideas...woh..you are Great.Your toilet is a great place...why dont you blog about your toilet?..its the bothi tree for you..

Automobiles Induco war ein französischer Hersteller von Automobilen.

Unternehmensgeschichte
Das Unternehmen Automobiles Induco hatten seinen Hauptsitz in der Rue d'Anjou 78 in Paris und eine Fabrikanlage in Puteaux. 1922 begann unter der Leitung von M. Van der Heyden die Produktion von Automobilen. Es bestand eine Zusammenarbeit mit der Société A. Marguerite aus Courbevoie. Das Unternehmen stellte insgesamt rund 20 Fahrzeuge her. 1928 endete die Produktion.

Modelle

Modell auf dem Fahrgestell des Marguerite Typ BO 5
Automobiles Induco stellte dieses Modell auf dem Pariser Automobilsalon im Oktober 1926 unter dem Namen 7 CV und im Oktober 1927 unter dem Namen 7 CV Type EH aus.

Fahrgestell
Automobiles Induco verwendete für dieses Modell das Fahrgestell des Marguerite Typ BO 5. Dabei handelte es sich um ein konventionelles Fahrgestell mit Frontmotor und Hinterradantrieb. Die Länge des Fahrgestells betrug 2,75 Meter. Die Fahrzeuge verfügten über Vierradbremsen.

Motor
Automobiles Induco montierte einen Vierzylinder-Einbaumotor von Chapuis-Dornier mit 1095 cm³ Hubraum (Bohrung 59 mm, Hub 100 mm) und OHV-Ventilsteuerung, ebenso wie Marguerite im Modell Typ BO 5. Die Motorleistung betrug 11 PS.

Karosserie und Innenausstattung
Automobiles Induco stellte aus den zugekauften Fahrgestellen und Motoren sowie eigenen Innenausstattungen und eigenen Karosserien komplette Fahrzeuge her. Die Innenausstattung wurde in einigen Fällen nach Wahl der Kunden angefertigt. Zur Wahl standen offene Tourenwagen bzw. Torpedo und geschlossene Limousinen, die nach Weymann-Art entstanden. Der Kunde hatte die Wahl zwischen verschiedenen Lackierungen der Karosserie.

Verbrauchsangaben
Der Kraftstoffverbrauch betrug laut Angaben des Importeurs in die Niederlande 7 Liter auf 100 km, während der Ölverbrauch minimal war.

Verkaufspreis
Die Preise betrugen im Oktober 1926 für das Torpedo 28.000 Franc und für die Limousine 33.500 Franc. Im Oktober 1927 betrug der Preis ab 24.500 Franc. In den Niederlanden wurde das Fahrzeug in den Jahren 1926 und 1927 komplett zu einem Verkaufspreis ab 2550 Niederländischen Gulden angeboten.

Modell auf dem Fahrgestell des Marguerite Typ BO 7
Automobiles Induco stellte dieses Modell auf dem Pariser Automobilsalon im Oktober 1927 unter der Bezeichnung 9 CV Type EM aus. Das Modell basierte auf dem Fahrgestell des Marguerite Typ BO 7. Dabei handelte es sich ebenfalls um ein konventionelles Fahrgestell mit Frontmotor und Hinterradantrieb. Der größere Vierzylindermotor von Chapuis-Dornier mit 1494 cm³ Hubraum (Bohrung 68 mm, Hub 103 mm) und OHV-Ventilsteuerung kam zum Einsatz, analog zum Marguerite-Modell Typ BO 7. Der Verkaufspreis betrug im Oktober 1927 maximal 36.000 Franc.

Marguerite Typ B
Möglicherweise wurde zusätzlich zu den eigenen Fahrzeugen der Marguerite Typ B mit 961 cm³ Hubraum und SV-Ventilsteuerung komplett von Marguerite übernommen, mit dem eigenen Markenzeichen versehen und unter eigenem Namen verkauft.

Vertriebsorganisation
Die Fahrzeuge wurden unter dem Markennamen Induco vermarktet. Der Importeur Atax, Ph. Schipper aus Arnhem importierte die Fahrzeuge von 1926 bis 1927 in die Niederlande.
