WELL, what a strange set up. The stage sits betwixt and between the audience, and thankfully it's a full theatre. Greenshoot Productions with support from Manchester University brings us 'My English Tongue, My Irish Heart' a play about the Irish diaspora. Greenshoot is Martin Lynch's non-profit venture, where he can experiment and play with ideas without having to worry about generating revenue, and with this we can find him at his best – remember 2013's 'Meeting at Menin Gate'?
With opening night, Martin was there… watching him was like watching a man getting his hand crushed as his wife screams and breaks his knuckles delivering the first born. He did chuckle twice or thrice. I chuckled a lot more, well, I suppose he did write it and knew when the jokes were coming. Typically, Lynch has dark humour wryly splintering the play; add to that his love of music and we have a grand piece of theatre.
The plot centres round a Mayo Catholic, Gary, and his Tyrone born Protestant wife, Susan. An odd couple for sure who find themselves living in England. Yep, they speak the lingo but life's not all Foxy bingo on the other side of the Irish Sea. Intertwined are several plots featuring other Irish immigrants from the last few centuries. With a six strong cast we venture the world, but the eye is always thrown back on Ireland. You can take the boy out of Ireland… The plot should be simple, but with the centre stage and jumps from the 1700s to 2015 I found it hard to follow at times.
Gorgeous traditional ballads of the old sod including more modern hits by The Pogues and Saw Doctors encourage the audience to reflect upon their heritage. Anyone who has fled Ireland, North or South, will understand the notion of this play. Wanting to leave but missing this rain-soaked country is the real essence of this piece of theatre.
Lynch is clever enough to bring characters from all walks of life – pickpockets, draftsmen, daft men, lawyers and plenty more beside add body to the simple message of this play. But, and there's always a 'but', I don't think the centre staging of this production quite works. Maybe if the audience was elevated above the actors we would have more of a sense of being involved. The decision to have the crowd lower than the cast makes it feel like a poetry reading with the reader always twisting and turning away from the audience. I missed some of the dialogue, and this was frustrating. Maybe this is test week. With the play running in Ireland, London and Manchester some venues may be better suited to this style of theatre. Unfortunately the Waterfront staging didn't match an achingly good script, a fine cast and a thoughtful tale of Irish emigrants confronted with losing their identity.
Would I recommend this play to friends? Of course, forgetting its shortfalls it is a good play, which I'm sure will brings smiles to thousands on both sides of the water.

Q: Doctrine Mapped Superclass not recognizing primary key I have a mapped super class defined this way:
/** @ORM\MappedSuperclass */
abstract class BaseEntity {
/**
 * @var string $id
 *
 * @ORM\Column(name="id", type="string", length=32, nullable=false)
 * @ORM\Id
 * @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="IDENTITY")
 */
protected $id;

/**
 * @var datetime $dateCreated
 *
 * @ORM\Column(name="date_created", type="datetime", nullable=false)
 */
protected $dateCreated;

function __construct() {
    $this->id = $this->generateId();
}

And a subclass that extends it. I get this exception:
General error: 1364 Field 'id' doesn't have a default value

I do an echo on the getId method after I construct the object and it returns a valid string so that's not it. The interesting thing is, I do a find query before I insert something into that same table. The find query recognizes the 'id' field, the insert doesn't but both recognize the date_created field. What could be happening?

A: If you are generating id on your own you should use:
* @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="NONE")

IDENTITY tells doctrine to relay on database specific identity generation.

Q: Calculations within a matrix with internal, references that are anchored to columns within the matrix in R I have a matrix and I would like to perform a calculation on each number in the matrix so that I get another matrix with the same dimensions only with the results of the calculation. This should be easy except that part of the equation is dependent on which column I am accessing because I will need to have an internal reference to the number at row [3,] within that column.
The equation I would like to apply is:
output matrix value = input_matrix value at a given position + (1- (matrix value at [3,] and in the same column as the input matrix value))
For example, For (1,1) in the matrix the calculation would be 1+(1-3)
For position (1,2) in the matrix, the calculation would be 5+(1-7)
input_matrix<- matrix(1:12, nrow = 4, ncol = 3)

     [,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,]    1    5    9
[2,]    2    6   10
[3,]    3    7   11
[4,]    4    8   12

The output matrix should end up looking like this:
     [,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,]    -1   -1  -1
[2,]    0    0   0
[3,]    1    1   1
[4,]    2    2   2

I have tried doing something like this:
output_matrix<-apply(input_matrix,c(1,2), function(x) x+(1-(input_matrix[3,])))

but that gives me three matrices with the wrong dimensions as the output.
I am thinking that perhaps I can perhaps just modify the function in the above calculation to get this to work, or alternatively write something that iterates over each column of the matrix but I am not sure exactly how to do this in a way that gives me the output matrix that I want.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A: I think this should work for you:
apply(input_matrix, margin = 2, function(x) x + (1 - x[3]))
     [,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,]   -1   -1   -1
[2,]    0    0    0
[3,]    1    1    1
[4,]    2    2    2

A: We could also do this in a vectorized way
input_matrix + (1 - input_matrix[3,][col(input_matrix)])
#     [,1] [,2] [,3]
#[1,]   -1   -1   -1
#[2,]    0    0    0
#[3,]    1    1    1
#[4,]    2    2    2


It's Sunday, and I'm craving some family time, the magical kind where we're all grateful to be together, feeling close and enjoying the same activity, which is precisely the one I have chosen.
I mean really, is it so unreasonable to dictate our lives based on my values, Col and Rose following along good naturedly? ("You're right, Mom, social media could be a huge distraction to our growing brains!") In my dream-life, we're strolling through the piñons, the kids divulging their hardships and dreams (but like, in a really digestible way, where everyone speaks with perfect self-awareness and responsibility). More likely I'd be practicing my labor breathing, two small people grumbling along in their lead-filled shoes, determined not to enjoy themselves because it was my idea.
We gather around the situation room of our kitchen table, recording ideas and trying to stick to our collective pledge to remain open, even as Dan mentions driving to Silverton and I watch the kids imagine themselves slowly perishing of boredom as we blur past another snowy mountain, forced to invent backseat fights just to keep things lively. Similarly, Rose's "walk around downtown with hot chocolate and window shop" makes me feel slightly panicked. When Col mentions wanting to visit a gaming store, I bite back the thought: And, how does this include everyone? I share my desire for a hike, emphasis on roasting marshmallows over a campfire, trolling for allegiance like an opportunistic politician.
Once complete, we revisit everyone's three suggestions aloud and amend as necessary. Alpine skiing gets nixed because two of us would actually need lessons. Visiting cats at the humane society is spontaneously added by both children. I thought the hardest part was withholding opinions as people announced their preferences, but turns out that was the appetizer for the meatier challenge of synthesizing a plan in which everyone wins.
We offer ideas that take into account as many people's interests as possible: the cats, the hiking, the hot chocolate, the game store. Ideas are floated and recorded and eventually, Col comes up with: walk on the river path with hot chocolate to the humane society to visit the cats (and a quick trip for kids to neighboring gaming store while Dan and I walk farther up the river trail). The room goes quiet. And then everyone comes out with a unanimous "Yes!" This solution hits Dan's and my desire for exercise outside, the kids' desire to be with kitties, all of our desire to be together and the unspoken: our desire to contribute to each others' happiness because (at the risk of sounding like Mr. Rogers) it feels wonderful to contribute to the well-being of others and (at the risk of sounding calculating) others will be more likely to care for our hopes and dreams when we care for theirs.
We stuff our pockets with bars and leftover waffles and set out under the thin winter sun. It seems like a dream, each of us getting what we want without coercion, persuasion, bribes or threats. And maybe this is the crux of finding win-win solutions. When everyone is heard and considered and the goal is to satisfy the most needs, there is nothing to fight for, just the collective, creative brainpower of the group caring for one another.


Windows Batch (*.bat) scripting is archaic and painful, but occasionally useful for quick bits of environment setup. It's not always obvious to the user when something has gone wrong though as it's easy to lose the information amidst other text which scrolls by. An audible warning can be a useful alternative to draw attention to a problem.
It should hopefully be possible to copy-and-paste that directly into a batch script using your favourite plain text editor.
To enter it manually, first type in the "ECHO" followed by a space. Next, ensure your Num Lock is enabled, hold the left Alt key on your keyboard, and press the 7 key on your number pad. Save it to file (e.g. as "test.bat"), then double-click that file to test it.
Please note that your results may vary here. Inputting ASCII characters this way may not work on all editors. It seems to work for me with Notepad++ though (an editor I highly recommend), and even with Windows' regular Notepad. You may also find that the beep won't sound on some systems. Internal speakers seem to be increasingly a thing of the past, and the beep won't always be sent through a proper sound card instead.

Bass tournament fishermen are famous for having "secret" lures they don't tell anyone about, but Brandon Palaniuk's secret lure is one that's in virtually every angler's tacklebox. The Yamaha Pro's lure is a jerkbait, but his secret is that he fishes it all year, and he especially likes to use it during the hot summer months.
Jerkbaits are a type of crankbait, generally featuring a long, thin five to six inch body with a diving lip and two or three treble hooks. Instead of retrieving them with steady cranking, anglers point their rod tips down and use a series of jerks and pauses, varying their speed to match the mood of the bass. Jerkbaits have an erratic side to side action, and are usually most effective in water depths of less than 12 feet.
"I still use a jerk-jerk-pause cadence in my retrieve, just as I do in cold water," continues Palaniuk, "but now the pauses are very short, and my lure never really stops moving. It's constantly darting back and forth, so it probably resembles either a fleeing or an injured baitfish.
The Yamaha Pro used a jerkbait to help him win the 2013 Bassmaster® Elite tournament on the St. Lawrence River in New York, an event in which he made daily one-way runs of more than 100 miles down the river and out into Lake Ontario. On the final day of the tournament, with the lake extremely rough, he used a jerkbait near a rocky shoreline to cement his winning catch.
Palaniuk's favorite color for jerkbaits is a hue he calls mossback-shiner, which features a darker back with a lighter silver belly. Pearl-blue is another combination he's used successfully. Overall, he prefers to fish jerkbaits in clearer water where he feels bass are probably feeding by sight; his fast retrieve makes the lure that much more tempting, since fish feel its vibrations but don't really get a good look at it.

A new measure of preference for traditional vs. modern role of a woman in the society was developed with Polish female university students as participants. A 16-item scale was selected in a principal component analysis from the list of 65 normative statements describing desirable features of woman's character and behavior. Eight items formed the traditional role sub-scale, the remaining items formed the modern role sub-scale. Confirmatory factor analysis revealed a better fit of the two-dimensional (with separate sub-scales for the acceptance of the traditional vs. modern role) than the one-dimensional solution (one bi-polar scale). The new scale showed acceptable reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0,76 for the traditional role, and 0,74 for the modern role). As predicted, acceptance of the traditional role correlated strongly with traditional and benevolent sexism (the latter including, two additional dimensions: maternity and aesthetics). The modern role subscale appeared to be a reliable predictor (much better than the traditional role, with weak negative impact) of the acceptance of pro-choice statements, as well as of support for free access to contraceptives and sexual education. Overall, the new scale shows satisfactory reliability and seems to be a promising instrument for measuring the content of female social identity.
Keywords: traditional vs. modern woman's role in society, traditional vs. modern sexism, ambivalent sexism

I will gamble with these kindhearted people. I should come clean and tell them everything.

「Alright then…. are you ready to talk?」
Gathering inside the Village Chiefs home to listen to his story, Captain Kirishima had 2 guards posted outside so no one would interfere. Sitting in a chair inside his own home, the Village Chief exuded a burdened expression as Haruto and Suzumiya waited for his answer.
「……. Yes…. I'll tell you everything」
He was the proud Chief of a small village, but against Haruto's presence he felt smaller than ever, unsure if he should explain everything.
……These people…. They aren't like those who came from the Empire, whose men always came to take away our food and even tried to lay their hands on our young girls.
No, I shouldn't think like that, because these people actually gave their food to our people.
Which is why…. it should be fine…. I will gamble with these kindhearted people. I should come clean and tell them everything.
….. but once these people know our village's secret, there's also a chance their attitude towards us could change.
It would be really distasteful…. but if the worst case scenario were to happen and these people seek to harm us after learning our secret….… We'll have to leave none alive..
―― Like that one time 9 years ago.
Contemplating deeply, the Village Chief made up his mind and decided to speak.
「……I guess it was impossible to keep hiding until now, so I'll just tell you our village's secret. ……Our village…. our people are descendants of a serpent race who lived on this land from long ago!」
Okay, so they're descendants of an old serpent race…… a tribe of snakes…. Naga….no that's not right. I mean they are kind of similar to Lamia, where they have human features, but they just look like normal humans.
Well they're jaws can dislocate and expand widely like a snake, could that be these peoples special trait. They're body can stretch similar to a snakes as well, I wonder…
「……….Hm!」
Having decided to reveal his tribes secret, the Village Chief's anxiety grew as he balled his hands into fists and laid it over his knees, looking downwards, expecting a negative reaction from those who he exposed the truth to.
「I see. Was there anything else?」
「…….Huh?」
「Like a said, anything else you want to mention?」
「Oh, uh…… we are a tribe of snakemen…..」
「I know, you told me that already」
「You're not going to kill us?」
「Why are we going to kill you people?」
What the? Is he misunderstanding something again?
With an awkward silence between them Captain Kirishima realized that the Village Chief had some kind of misunderstanding. To rectify things, unlike the Empire's way of doing things, he had to explain that their country Parabellum, wouldn't cause harm to any village of Beastman or Demon-kin without good reason.
「Ahh~…….That's…..It's good (that we didn't kill you guys)…… what a relief… It's our fault that we had such a misunderstanding. We truly believed the stories merchants would tell us, when they occasionally came by.
Saying that the Parabellum Military was merciless. We were so convinced by it, that we believed it was only a matter of time before beastmen and demon-kin were next. I'm truly sorry for our misunderstanding of all of this….」
「Ah it's nothing, you really don't have to worry about it. The way I see it it was just a common misunderstanding. But for a tribe of Snakemen…. I'm surprised you guys were able to live here while under the rule of the Alsace Empire」
「Ah well, the Coltrane Kingdom was very much like Canary's Kingdom, where they didn't persecute beastman or demon-kin, but 10 years ago that all changed when the Alsace Empire took over.
Our lives had changed, we could not live as freely as we once did, out of fear of being killed. But only the Empire's Tax collectors would come to our remote village, so we managed to keep our beastial traits hidden and keep everything a secret. …… but a year after the Empire's rule, the tax collectors which came, found out our villages secret, that our people are Snakemen.
At that time, our village men had given Empire's tax collector and all his companions rounds of drinks and in their stupor we had engorged them all down, in order to prevent our secret from leaving our village.
Well after that, we were too full to even move and became lethargic for about three months. Hahaha~ what a memory」
…. … Damn, that's pretty scary!!
Having overheard the Village Chief's story of how they prevented their secret from getting out, the guards outside felt fear towards the villagers, as the Village Chief laughed off his memory.
「Ah, I see. Your people must've hard it hard….. By the way, If protecting your secret was so important, why didn't you leave this place? Wouldn't it have been a whole lot easier to move to Canary Kingdom and abandon this area to the Empire?」
From all appearances they're no different from a normal humans, but at Haruto's question the Village Chief makes a grievous expression, hesitating to answer.
「…….That…. Even if we wanted to, there's no way we could leave this place….」
Having joked not long ago, one would be surprised by the Village Chief's change in demeanor as he exuded an aura that meant the situation was quite complicated.
「Why, what do you mean?」
「As descendants of a Serpent Race, there is much about this land that we hold dear and protect with our lives」
「Something you hold dear? Protect with your lives? Can you talk about what it is you are trying to protect, with more detail, please?」
「………*Sigh* I understand. The reason we watch over this land, is that for many generations its been the home of our sacred deity, the Hydra」
「……Oh a Hydra?….. You mean the immortal serpent which had nine heads and can breath out flames and spit poison, that Hydra!? 」
「How do you know about our God!? Except for our folk no one else should know about the Hydra!!」
……… Seriously!?…..
While Haruto only brought up his knowledge of myths from the other world, the Village Chief retorted in disbelief. Flabbergast by the fact an outsider knows about their Ancestral God.
「Well about that, don't overthink it」
「Why, how, but……..」
Having gotten off-track as the Village Chief started asking questionsof his own, Haruto tries to return to the previous topic at hand.
「*Cough cough*….. sorry, you were explaining about protecting this place」
「But….Alright… the reason why we stayed….. about 20 years ago something strange happened to our Ancestral God 」
「Something strange?」
「Long ago, our Ancestral God, the Hydra was a loving and intelligent being with plenty of wisdom. But as time grew, its ego degraded most likely from miasmic energies and it began to attack anyone within its field of vision」
「So what your saying is…..it became vicious―― and devolved into a monstrosity? 」
「Unfortunately, that's what happened. Our ancestral god's dwelling is not that far away from this village. We've managed to seal it within it's cave and prevent outsiders from venturing within, but if something happens, a terrible disaster would be unleashed upon the land. And that is why we guard these lands, to prevent such an event from happening. That is why, we could never leave this place」
「I see….. I can understand your situation a lot better now」
Damn, what a mess….. Looks like we got ourselves involved in something troublesome.
Were taking about a mythical beast here…..
Maybe I should go report this to Command and request for additional instruction on how to deal with this.
Having listened to the Village Chief's entire story, Haruto was at a loss for what to do, as these kinds of things were over head.
「Alright, we'll end our discussion here for now. You can tell the rest of your people not to be wary of us, and reassure them that we mean no harm」
「Yes, I will do that!」
And just as he was about to contact Command back at Ballard city, and request for guidance, their situation began to take another turn for the worst.
「Chief!! Chief!! It's a disaster!!」
Having been accompanied by one of Haruto's men, a villager had come barging through the Village Chief's door as a fully transformed Snakeman.
「Pruffe!? What's wrong, why have you transformed!?」
「Chief!! I was out searching for my rascal son, and in my search I found my son's footprints by our "Ancestor's Cave"! I didn't think he would enter, but he was nowhere in sight…. At this rate my son could die…. so I ran for help!」
「What!? It's terrible, if the cave's seal becomes damaged or tampered with, the Hydra will escape!!」
Are you kidding me!?
Cold sweat trickled down from Captain Kirishima's forehead as he listened to the exchange between a father and the Village Chief.
「Azuma!! Nishiyama!! Head to that cave right now, follow that man!!」
「Roger that!」
「Sir, Yes Sir!! Alright then, please lead the way!!」
「Ah, ah, ff-follow me!!」
Following Haruto's commands, the two guards standing by follow the father as they search for his missing boy.
This whole thing is turning into a clusterfuck…..
「Kobayashi, call the rest of the men, tell them to prepare for combat. We're going to that cave as well」
「Lieutenant, take five men with you, I want these people evacuated from the village Get on comms and report the situation to Command back at Ballard City. Also request for reinforcements」
「Understood!!」
Understanding the gravity of their predicament Haruto quickly shouted out orders towards his subordinates, making a tactical decision to reach the Hydra's cave. While the Village Chief began foaming at the mouth, overwhelmed by sudden chain of events.
「Everyone make sure to grab extra ammo and don't forget to bring your gas masks!!」
Swiftly passing out orders to his men, Haruto places a 30-round magazine with 5.56 x 45mm bullets into one of the pockets of his bullet-proof vest.
Along with his current armament, Haruto stuck three MK3A2 grenades and two Type 6 rifle grenades.
「I hope this will be enough…… All hands, give me a status on your exo-suits!!」
Once everyone replenished their ammo, Captain Kirishima verifies his men's electronic equipment. His men wore an advanced computerized exoskeleton, which increased Soldier carry-load and their tactical efficiency.
「All systems green!!」
「Good to go sir!!」
「Looks pretty good for me!!」
Confirming the equipment is operating without deficiencies, the men respond back to their commander.
「……..Preparations complete」
After several minutes and confirming that his men completed their arrangements, Haruto begins issuing out orders.
「Alright, I want two Snipers up on that cliff, take the .50 cal and Sniper Grenades. Also, I need one Spotter to go with them」
「「「Sir, Yes Sir!!」」」
As the three Soldiers made their way to the cliff top, overlooking the Village and the target's cave. One of the Snipers carried a Barret M82A1 .50 Cal while the other carried a Barrett XM109 a prototype anti-material rifle which shot 25 x 59mm sniper grenade rounds.
「You guys with the machine guns, if we enter battle, I want you guys to cover the rear. With your equipment, you'll be too slow and become bulky targets, so don't get ahead of each other 」
「「「「Roger that!!」」」」
Except for those carrying the FN Minimi, a light machine gun, Haruto tells the rest of his machine gunners their general positions ―― As those utilizing the Iron-man system (an exoskeletal suit which focuses on carrying capacity) used the general purpose machine gun M240. Equipped with a belt feed which connects into their backpack, Haruto's men were able to carry 300 ~ 500 rounds of ammunition in order to provide cover fire.
In exchange for more firepower, those utilizing the Iron-man exosuit had lost mobility due to the extra amount of weight they carried.
「In the worst case scenario, you guys will be our ace in the hole. When that time comes, I'll be counting on you guys!」
「That's one heavy responsibility….」
「Alright, Leave it to me, I'll take it on, I'll do it when that time comes!!」
Turning to his heavy weapons team, Haruto pat the shoulders of his men carrying a Carl Gustav M3, a recoilless rifle which can fire flechettes that can pierce tank armor.
「Alright let's wrap things up!! Group Atten――」
「Caaappptain!! Waaaiiittt!!!」
「Lieutenant, why are you running……what is it? Did you have something to repor――nNnphff!? 」
「Mmm~…….This is for good luck. Sir, you have to make it back here safely. Okay~」
Lieutenant Suzumiya who had come running just to see off Haruto, left her mark on him, calling it a good luck charm. Dazed by the sudden act, his eyes drifted towards his Lieutenants lips before both their faces burned red. Swiftly turning around he tries to still move gallantly.
「「「「「*Snickering*」」」」」
「Urk!!….. Company, move out, double time!! Hurry up and run dammit!! All of you stop laughing!!」
Realizing his subordinates were giggling and smiling at him all goofy-like, he shouted back at them to start moving.
「「「「「AHAHAHAHA!! SIR YES SIR!!」」」」」
Haruto's face was still flushed even while his men laughing, rushing with their heavy armament towards the Hydra's lair.
Fuuuck, watch when we get back, these guys are definitely gonna have something to laugh about.
Trailing his men, Captain Kirishima swore to himself, he would get back at his men after being embarrassed.
「Captain…..Please come back safely」
Clutching her hands and holding to her chest, Lieutenant Suzumiya prays for Haruto and everyone's safety as she watches the men run down the mountain path.
Watching them until they were out of sight, Lieutenant Suzumiya turns around, determined to fulfill her role as 5th Company's Executive Officer.
「Pffffttt」
「Kuhahahaha」
「Bwahahaha」
……..Fuckin' assholes….
As his subordinates were still running ahead of him, Haruto could see them laughing and turning their heads back every now and then with goofy smiles.
Frustrated by the atmosphere, Haruto tries to increase his pace, catching up with two of his men.
「Hmmm, I think the Captain is a nice guy, but you think he'll go for it? Like in this case, think he'll go after the Lieutenant?」
「Captain Lady-killer should just explode」
One gives a small praise but the other just lets out all his lingering resentment.
「…….I should've done this from the start. You guys should shut up and take a look at this」
In an effort to change the awkward atmosphere around him, Captain Kirishima pulls out a piece of paper from his breast pocket.
「Hey, isn't that!? No way!」
「That's the famous….. I heard a story that the President had been a target for enslavement, but in a closed room the whole succubus clan fell to him instead. And somehow he'd gotten tickets to go to a luxurious brothel after the incident. But that ticket, how did Captain get a hold of something so secretive, that only the President's elite bodyguards could rarely obtain? 」
「……I have my connections. As for this, I can give this to all of you, but only if you forget about the previous matter」
「「「「「WE UNDERSTAND YOU SIR!! THANK YOU, SIR!!」」」」」
Seeing his men take the bait, everyone began to pick up the pace and run at top speed, but not after turning around to give a salute to their womanizing Captain.

――*Sound of large crumbling rocks* DOGAAANG!!
「Were we too late…..」
The sound of collapsing rocks could be heard all the way to the village, where people were still trying to evacuate on another mountain path. Dust grandly billowed into the sky revealing the general location of the cave's collapse.
『Aw, what the hell―― that's just fucking great!! Captain this is Azuma, come in!! We secured the child, but the Serpent God's seal has been broken!! We're retreating right now!!』
「This is the Captain. Message received. Hurry back and get the father and his child back towards the village. We'll cover your retreat.」
『Ha~ah, Rah~ger, Roger that!!』
「Alright boys, you heard the plan. We'll set up our positions and blockade the enemy until Azuma makes it back to the village, you guys got that!?」
Damn, the Hydra's seal was lifted…. We sure are being driven in a corner over here.
Do we even have enough firepower to impede that things path? …….I hope reinforcements come real soon.
While Haruto was lost in thought as battle with a Hydra was unavoidable, on a separate radio channel a message came through.
『Captain this is Kurabayashi, our target has exited the cave. ….Holy Shit!! Captain our target is roughly 20-30 meters tall, that things huge!!…..』
Relaying the situation via radio, the Sniper teams Spotter, Kurabayashi informs Haruto about the unbelievable sight.
「Understood. Kurabayashi I want you start firing on my signal」
『Copy that sir』
Lifting his finger off the radio's (push-to-talk) switch, Haruto changes radio channels to give commands to his other subordinates.
Whilst waiting for his men who were fleeing from the cave, the rest of his subordinates hid within the shadows and brush of the surrounding terrain.
「Ha~ah, ha~ah, Hey I'll be leaving everything up to you!!」
Fearing they'd be devoured by the Hydra, the retreating men desperately ran. Passing the Captain's position, one of the retreating Soldiers voices his relief.
「Don't worry, leave it to me. ―― All units, commence fire」
At the time the Hydra had broke free from its seal, it began to dart it's nine heads, looking for its prey.
Focusing in on the four individuals which had fled its lair, it began to give chase as they were fleeing towards the village.
Knocking down trees one after another, thrashing with enough fervor, it began to catch up towards the four with shocking speed.
But just as the Hydra was about to devour someone, four of its heads blew up, as the rest of its body became wrapped up in smoke, due to the explosion.
――GRRRAAAAAAaaaa!!
As four of its heads had been blown awayin a single moment, the Hydra roared out in pain amidst the smoke that cleared around it.
「No way―― the target is still active!! It's still alive!!」
「NO shit it's still alive, even I can see it!! Just keep firing, don't stop!!」
Anti-tank rounds from their rocket launcher (Carl Gustav M3), explosive bullets from their anti-material sniper didn't do much to stop the creature (Barret XM109), leaving the men disheartened and shocked. But Captain Kirishima doesn't lose motivation as he equips a Type 6 rifle grenade on his assault rifle, getting ready to fire back on the monster.
「FUCK YOUUUU!!」
「RAAAAaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!」
Concentrating as much firepower upon the enemy as possible, the Soldiers unload their weapons, going fully automatic on some of their weapons.
「Reload!!」
「I'm almost out of ammo, last magazine!!」
「Whose almost out ammo!?」
「I'm down to just 3 rounds!!」
Repeatedly firing off rockets, the anti-tank projectiles pummel the Hydra's body and in that gap the men throw their MK3A2 hand grenades further causing the monster to stumble.
But even after all that, the Hydra still maintains its essence, in short if it's core neck stem isn't destroyed, it'll remain immortal. The rest of its heads can regenerate, but if the base of its neck is cauterized, then even after severing the head, it'll never grow back.
Almost out of ammo, Haruto was racking his brains thinking about how to destroy the Hydra's main head, all the while, having his men withdraw gradually.
But during the time he was lost in thought, was a moment he became careless.
「Captain watch out!!」
One of Hydra heads spewed out an acidic attack towards the Soldiers, when the concentration of attacks had thinned down.
What the!?
Jumping away from the direct line of the attack, Haruto managed to avoid a severe injury, but his bulletproof armor and his assault rifle started to corrode from the acid, turning into junk.
The sound of hissing from the acid became more prevalent as it ate through his armor, turning it into a clump of viscous jelly.
「Aw shit!! Damn it!!」
「Captain!! You need to to take it off now!! Hurry!!」
One of his subordinates rushed over, to help Haruto take off the bulletproof vest. Melting the armor as he tried to remove it, the ceramic plates were almost eaten through once, he threw the armor to the ground.
「That was close――」
「「Ugh-waaaaaa!!」」
But there was no time to rest as by the time Haruto head the screams of his men, Haruto watched as they were bathed in fire from one of the Hydra's heads, incinerating them into charcoal.
「Rgh……Fuck!! Everyone Retreat!! Fall back now, that's an order!!」
As soon as the tables were turned on him, Haruto commands his men to fall back as swiftly as possible.
Having been injured by 5th Company's attack, the Hydra maintained its pursuit over Captain Kirishima's men. In a gamble to stop the Hydra they had managed to destroy 3 of its heads and sealed its ability to regenerate by burning the base of the severed head with several explosions.
But the attack was at the cost of 3 more casualties from 5th Company.
「Hey what're doing!? I said fall back!!」
An injured subordinate who Haruto had been lending his shoulder to, slipped out from his grasp and began heading toward the Hydra, even though Haruto gave the command to withdraw.
「Go! I'll buy you guys some time!!」
Ignoring Haruto's pull, the machine gunner moved with the assistance of his exo-suit, moving out of his way and confronting the monster.
「Time to eat some lead, Raaaaaaaaahhh!!」
In a valiant display, the machine gunner held the trigger of his M240 without a care, making the gun barrel burn a bright red color.
――*TCHSSSsssss*
Twisting due to the annoying bullet fire, the Hydra's head makes it's way towards the attacking soldier.
「Get some, get some, raaaaah!! ――uck….. 」
――*Chomp*……*Gulp*
「GODDAMMIT!!」
Cursing at the situation, Captain Kirishima hated the fact one of his subordinates stayed behind, only to be devoured.
At this rate…. We'll all be killed before we even reach the village.
「Hey, let me borrow this!!」
「Huh!? Captain!? What're you…Where are you going!?」
「Get out of here!! I'll just buy some more time!!」
Grabbing the equipment off one of his injured Soldiers, Haruto takes his assault rifle and turns to face the monster which was right on their tail.
「Haha~ ……Damn you're big…」
This….. fucking ugly monster.
Returning to the battlefield once more, Captain Kirishima started his attack, just to keep himself from trembling out of fear.
But even though the attacks from his assault rifle could never do any real damage, he still maintained his harassment on the large beast.
Determined to impede this magical beast, he managed to dodge a breath attack from one of the heads, but Haruto also ran out of ammo in the process.
Is this the end…….
――GRAaaaaaa
Gloating now that its prey has no way to fight back the Hydra begins to take its time before striking.
Lifting its head high, it darts down at Haruto, ready to swallow him whole.
「Get away from my Captain!! RAAaaーー!!」
A voice he'd never expected to hear came, just as two missiles from a Type 79 rocket launcher soared from behind, creating a gaping wound onto the Hydra's body.
「Woah!!」
Bowing down to the ground and clutching his face to protect himself from the blast, Haruto looked up to see their Type 89 Infantry Fighting Vehicle charging down the mountain path, forcing itself between trees in its path.
「Captain!! Are you alright!?」
「Hey take it easy!! Slow down will you!!」
*Doh-doh Doh-doh*
The tanks 35mm cannon fires its armor piercing sabot and high explosive round, alternating between the two types of ammunition. Each shot creates a new crimson flower on the Hydra's body, as its blood dribbles from its wounds.
「Come on, let's go. Hurry up and get in!!」
Opening up the Type 89's rear hatch doors, the Lieutenant tries to drag Haruto inside the vehicle.
「No! Suzumiya!! Get out of the way!!」
「Huh!? Kyaaa!!!」
But in the small window where the tanks 3-man crew, was busy reloading, the Hydra spewed its acidic attack. Melting the armored vehicle and the occupants inside, some of the acid had splashed onto the Lieutenant, slightly injuring her right foot.
「Suzumiya!!」
「Nghh…..It got me…..」
Haruto pulls onto Suzumiya with a pale face, looking over her injured foot.
――*Sound of acid* Tsssssss
Sweetly taking its time, the Hydra encroaches upon the two people.
「Captain…..It's okay, I'm fine, leave me here and get away….. please…. 」
Groaning from the pain of her injury, Lieutenant Suzumiya tries to urge Haruto to run away.
Silently brooding to himself, Haruto was unwilling to leave his executive officer behind. Instead he reached for Suzumiya's 9mm pistol from her holster and decided to protect her.
「I'm not running anymore, there's no way I'm going to leave a subordinate of mine behind」
「Captain…….」
Laughing with bravado, Haruto turns to smile towards Suzumiya.
Hissing and sticking out its forked-tongues the six heads of the Hydra rock in a readied manner, while Haruto tries to provoke it.
「I'm right here!! Come and get me you Fucking Asshole!!」
Towards the end of Haruto's provocation, the largest head reacts and aims for the Lieutenant and her Captain.
In a single moment the sound of meat and bone sliding off from a swift cut echoed for all to hear.
「You did well in enduring things this far. Leave the rest to me」
Standing in-between the severed Hydra head and the two officers of 5th company was a lone person.
It was Chiyoda, standing gallantly with 2 glaives in each hand, her long black hair fluttered in the wind, while in the sky above them hovered a HV-22B Osprey.
Following Chiyoda, were six elite guards equipped with the latest military exosuits.
It appears we made it just in time….
In his mind, Haruto never thought that Chiyoda would save them, but he was glad to see a familiar face.
「Ah, Madam Vice-President…. why are you here!?……And the….. Presidents elite guards!? 」
In the middle of their crisis, Lieutenant Suzumiya cried out, surprised by the sudden appearance of their Vice-President as well as the Presidential Elite Soldiers who wore the latest Type-00 jet black exosuits.
「Mmm~ you are misunderstanding something. Although we share the same face, my sister and I are two different people….. Rather let me fix that, I'm Chiyoda Nagato, not your Vice-President Chitose Nagato. I'm just your average secretary of our President」
「Oh, I see, pardon my rudeness….」
「No, it's nothing to worry about――」
Amidst Chiyoda's and Suzumiya's conversation, the Hydra had finished regenerating its severed head, back to its six-headed state, it began attacking.
「Oh time to wrap up this mess~」
With all six heads attacking, baring their fangs and whipping their necks, Chiyoda gracefully evades like a gymnast .
Unable to grab Chiyoda's figure one of the heads crashes into the ground boring into the dirt.
「Hmm. A creature deemed immortal, due to it's regenerative ability……Things have become quite troublesome. But If I defeat it……It would be the perfect souvenir to bring back for Master!!」
Chiyoda's state of the art eyes were created with high-resolution optical cameras and were able to keep a constant track of the Hydra's movements. Gripping her glaive once more she severs the Hydra's 5 heads in a single stroke.
――GRAaaAAaa!?!
Roaring in dismay, the Hydra tries to regenerate its lost heads, but found out it couldn't do so at all.
「Hmph, unlike the previous time I cut off your head, this time I made sure to heat up my blade with ultra-high frequency vibrations」
If one were to look at Chiyoda's glaive, they would see it emit a red glow, while anyone in the vicinity could smell the Hydra's burnt flesh.
Retreating slowly while glaring at Chiyoda, the Hydra instinctively became afraid realizing the difference in power between them.
「Well then…. there's only one head left, right?」
While the Hydra tried to escape, Chiyoda struck one of her glaive's into the ground, before raising her right hand towards the fleeing creature.
「Did you really think you could escape?…… Collapse!」
The moment it tried to flee, the Hydra became stuck, unable to move because of an invisible force, it sunk deeper into the ground.
「「Huh!?」」
Watching such a scene Haruto and Suzumiya were both surprised to see this.
「Oh? Didn't you know about this already? This is a gravity weapon which utilizes a known gravity spell and combined with a magic furnace. That is what was planted into my right arm. Well, this is only a prototype, so it will only be effective for roughly 30 seconds」
Walking closer towards the immobile deity, Chiyoda finishes her explanation, while lifting up her glaive to cut the Hydra's remaining head.
―― TZszszszszszsss *Sound of a blade vibrating*
Dread was all that was reflected in the pupils of the Hydra, as it was unable to escape the gravity spell. Dread for Chiyoda's figure was the last thing the Hydra would ever see.
「Now then…. Die」
Along with those words, the crimson blade fell―― and just like that, the immortal serpent's head was severed.
「Immortality…..? It's nothing but a troublesome ability」
The moment the last remaining head was severed from its body, something strange began to occur. Chiyoda narrows her gaze towards the headless body, as it was unable to regenerate any further, the immortal being slowly dissolved and turned to ash.
Having its heads severed and the base of its necks cauterized turned its entire regenerative ability into something else.
「*Sigh* Such perfect research material going to waste. All of you, retrieve whatever is left」
「「「Yes, Ma'am!!」」」
A group of female soldiers also known as the Valkyrie Corps, following Chiyoda into battle returned a reply in unison.
And this ends the saga of the Serpent Tribes Immortal Deity, having been defeated by Parabellum's AI, Chiyoda Katayama Nagato.

TL Notes: This chapter was kinda cute in my opinion. In this chapter technically Chiyoda was using a Japanese Naginata, I just used the term glaive (polearm weapon) because it was easier to say. And for anyone joining my translations, just know I prefer listening to Japanese as opposed to reading it outright. Phonetically though, glaive seemed more appealing with two syllables, as opposed to the native naginata with its four syllables. It's just my personal preference.
So after translating, the editing I do usually, goes with sentence structure, grammar and flow. The proofreading part is usually where I catch my spelling errors. Other than that, here's some of my ramblings over the next chapter.

Yay new chapie! Thanks!

The dread reflected in the hydra"s eyes.
That's the moment when it realized it fucked up.
Other than that, it seems Akari really loves her Captain.

Thanks for the chapter !
i want grilled eel for lunch !
sabruness says:
Thanks for the chap! Seems like the cough determined love cough trait is a common thing among the female soldiers. Chiyoda's still as gap moe as ever XD
Now, here's some semantics changes you could do (if you want) for better accuracy:
– The Type 89 IFV naming is correct but shouldnt be called a tank so you could probably remove that.
"just as two anti-tank rounds from a Type 79 rocket launcher"
– It would be more correct to say 'just as two missiles from Type 79 launchers' as A) they are missiles and not rockets and B) there are two separate launchers, one on each side of the turret. That may be the author's slight inaccuracy but changing it wouldnt alter any meaning or anything.
"while in the sky above them hovered a HV-22B Osprey."
– This one's a nomenclature issue but an understandable one. The correct nomenclature which, i presume, the author means would be either CV-22B or MV-22B.
The rest of it is all solid though.
CountColura says:
Actually, for the Osprey there is a variant called HV-22 that was supposed to be used to provide combat search and rescue, delivery and retrieval of special warfare teams along with fleet logistic support transport only for the MH-60S to be chosen over it. Still, there aren't any mentions for a "HV-22B".
I know that but the model likely to be employed as it is in this chapter would be the CV-22B or MV-22B because, as you mentioned, the HV-22 was considered for CSAR and other roles but lost out so it's further existence is a great mystery.
The CMV-22B was initially designated HV-22 but then received it's official designation and actually assumes some of the HV-22's envisioned roles.
Kur0_Oni says:
Thanks again for the feedback.
I think I glossed over the Type 89 IFV, because its appearance resembled a tank, it being a tracked vehicle with a cannon. And clicking on the Infantry Fighting Vehicle part expanded my knowledge. More or less its like a hybrid between a Tank and an APC to an extent. No worries I can change "tank" and just use its full description "Infantry Fighting Vehicle"
Type 79 rocket launcher, fires rockets/ missiles thumbs up I don't see a problem with changing it, I'll be using your suggestion.
As for the HV-22B Osprey. Honestly I didn't research this aircraft. I just took the name at face value, because its an Osprey. I appreciate you & CountColura for bringing it up.
Not sure if this is a decent source, but this does show Boeing designed a HV-22B for the US Navy
https://www.blueskyrotor.com/performance/datasheet/Boeing/Osprey__USN-HV_22-B
And the wikipedia does correlate that these weren't manufactured. Instead the navy purchased the Marines MV-22s and slapped the C on it to differentiate which belonged to which branch. Hence the CMV-22Bs are US Navy while MV-22Bs are US Marines.

Homeopathy was introduced to India in the 1830s by John Martin Honigberger (1795–1869), a Romanian-born student of Samuel Hahnemann (1755–1843), the German physician regarded as the founder of homeopathic medicine. Honigberger spent some 15 years in Lahore, where his early patients included Maharaja Ranjit Singh of Punjab and the son of the Maharaja's military advisor, General Jean François Allard. Homeopathy first flourished in Punjab and Bengal, before spreading to other parts of British India. In this book, Mirza Allah Baig Lakhnavi gives concise instructions for the purchase and safekeeping of homeopathic medicines. He describes homeopathic treatments, in which practitioners use highly diluted preparations to induce symptoms similar to those needing a cure, a principle Hahnemann called "let like be cured by like." The author discusses such remedies in relation to a wide range of ailments, from minor dermatological problems and stomach upsets to serious diseases of the heart, kidneys, and liver.

Today I am going to share with you a very simple lady's finger raita. I prepare it in two ways - one is my mother's style and the other one is Kerala style Vendakka Kichadi (Onam sadya special) which I learn't from my friend. There is not much difference between the two, except the addition of coconut. I love all types of raitas for the simple reason that they are very healthy and can be prepared in a jiffy. Vendakkai pachadi is prepared by frying the ladies finger till crisp and then it is mixed with beaten curd. Today let us learn how to make vendakka curd/Thayir pachadi by following this easy Vendakka pachadi recipe.
1.Select tender ladies finger.Wash and wipe it dry with a clean towel. Cut off the crown and the tip.
2.Cut it into thin slices. This is very important.
3.Shallow fry the ladies finger along with green chilli in oil till brown and crisp.
4.After it cools, add curd and needed salt. Mix well.
5.Heat a tsp of oil, add mustard seeds, when it splutters, add curry leaves and red chilli. Add this seasoning to the pachadi. Serve as a side dish along with rice.
Variation - You can add chilli powder instead of green chilli if preferred.
The first 3 steps are the same as above.
Grind 3 tbsp of grated coconut, 1/2 tsp cumin seeds and 1 green chilli to a fine paste.
Heat a tsp of oil, add mustard seeds, when it splutters, add curry leaves, red chilli and the ground paste. Saute for a few minutes till the raw smell goes.Then switch off the flame.
Add the fried ladies finger and leave it to cool.Then add yogurt/curd, needed salt and mix well.
Serve as a side dish along for rice.
Tasty thayir pachadi looks yummy and delicious.
Okra is one of my fav and okra pachadi is even better. Too good..
Padhu, Kerala vendaka kichadi has difference from okra raita. We usually grind coocnut, green chilies, and mustards seeds in addition to seasoning with mustards seeds.
Raita is so refreshing ,thanks for sharing the ultimate comfort raita.
I too prepare the same way,for the second version I add a bit of ginger too, it adds to the taste. Nice click as always.
My fav raita!!!! Looks yummy!!!
Simple easy yet different recipe..
Whenever I try making okra fry, I could see the jelly like fluid comes out and totally spoils the dish.
My mother gave me the following tips: 1. Avoid stirring frequently.
2. Don close with lid where the evaporated water will fall into the pan and will make okra much fluidity.
3. Keep the flame in medium low.
I followed all her tips but could not succeed with frying okra.. Kindly help me out..
1. After washing the ladiesfinger, wipe it dry with a kitchen towel.
2.For the first few minutes, I cook uncovered, then I cook covered.
3. Add a tsp of gram flour or thick curd if it is sticky.
5. Buy fresh tender ones which is less slimy.
6. Do not cut very finely.


Check out this great note from our first guest blogger, the 2013 national top fundraiser for MuckFest® MS and a nine-season National Football League alum, Pete Mitchell. Pete is an extremely dedicated MuckFest MS Jacksonville mucker who spent five years as a tight end for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Now, Pete is setting his sights on getting mucky in Jacksonville for a cure to multiple sclerosis.
I can't wait to participate in MuckFest MS Jacksonville on March 22, 2014. It's a great event, especially if you love being active outside and getting muddy. The event is challenging, but you can make it fit your personal level of physical fitness. Some obstacles are hard, some are hilarious, and the festival atmosphere is a blast.
However, this event is about way more than just running and having fun.
MuckFest MS raises money for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, an incredible organization that I support because my dad has been fighting MS for 42 years. When you fundraise for MuckFest MS, you become part of the solution to end this horrible disease.
I want to challenge each of you across the country to raise $100 when you participate at a MuckFest MS event in 2014. My fundraising tip is to call up 20 of your friends and ask each for a donation of $10. I bet you'll get 10 to say yes.
Not only will you be spreading the news about the great work of the National MS Society, you'll truly be making a difference in the lives of those fighting to end MS. Plus, your call will inspire other people to join your MuckFest MS team and to start fundraising on behalf of the National MS Society!

Microsoft Word will automatically number the paragraphs. Or is that too much monkey educating?

Perhaps the best thing about any of William's Lulzsuits is that there are over a dozen existing motions to dismiss out there that can be copy/pasted and filed, and any of them will work.
If either of the named defendants are reading this, can you file motion to have a guardian appointed for the plaintiff? How about a more responsible bartender?
Someone should just get an existing MTD from a previous lulzsuit, scratch the signature plate out and hand write their details in.
It seems to work for Schmalfeldt in his exhibits.
I am a certified bartender! And Blob is certifiable.
Even a year later, this one still cracks me up!
If I'm not mistaken, that's the one where he didn't know what diversity of citizenship meant and proceeded to sue HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGE!!11!!, (hereafter referred to "cult leader,") a then-fellow Maryland resident, in federal court.
The good times never go away, do they?
The first anniversary of this tweet is tomorrow. This is the third lulzsuit since it was posted.
That says so much more about William than I ever could.
In his previous 5 LolSuits, he stated the law was on his side too!!!! Yet, no suit he has filed has ever made it past the MTD stage. Get a clue Bill, you are playing right the hands of those that mock you. This latest suit will end exactly the same way as all the others……You get mocked mercilessly for several months…….then you come to your senses and run like a scalded dog.
Was Ali named in that one? Maybe he thought that was what all that diversity stuff was about?
Must be. in the literally thousands of pictures that William has published of himself online, i don't believe that I've ever seen him with any kind of a visible minority.
1) How is he going to get any ISP information?
2) If he actually does get any ISP info, how is he going to pay the ISPs to provide the information he requests from them?
Forget it, Jake. It's Schmallytown.

I always picture the judges in William's lulzsuits quoting Danny Glover.
It's butt stuff, isn't it?
I have to say that I'm glad BS took down his filthy web site. Now, he can also take down the one defaming Lynn, his harassment victim.

Just an FYI to Sheiko, Bill was responsible for that site. Didn't you notice that none of us had commented on any of his posts. Hell, I didn't ever visit that site and I'm will to bet 98% of the Horde didn't either. It was just a false flag op by Bill that ended like all the others he has attempted. FAILURE
Maybe WordPress was waiting for someone with 'standing' to complain?
Is there any way to establish a time that site was taken down? Seems like DF is right (instantly) on the ball with noticing it's gone and Sheiko is only 9 minutes later congratulating him. Its his usual game.
The defendants can find out during discovery, including the ISP of the blog owner.
Good job on that one Bill. Just wondering what took you so long?

He still wants a jury trial.
I've sat on juries, both criminal and civil. The thought of having to sit through the plaintiff's case is just mind boggling, and certainly any jury would deserve far more than the $50 or so a day the court pays them. They'd need more than that if only to pay for medical care for the sprained lulz muscles, sprained not so much from use, but rather from fighting the lulz impulse while trying to maintain appropriate decorum.
Can you imagine a jury listening to his "comedy" as Bill strives to show they're probably not pornography?
I can imagine the foreman asking if they can convict the plaintiff.
No jury will rule in his favour after hearing:
1. the threat to take the wonan's kids
2. The threats of rape towards Mrs. Stranahan
3. The vile comments about the loss of their child
and about a million other things in his own words.
Getting Cousin Bill, Dear Cousin Bill, up on the stand for cross on his "sterling character", and having him read some of his own material, should put sufficient nails in his case's coffin…
Explosive bolts.
I honestly didn't think it was possible that Stinky would file something even more damaged than his last ravings.
really I didnt'.
Dumbf*ck proved me wrong by filing that steaming pile.
Not ONE of the many defects fixed, and many more added to the pile.
*SMDH
He's made some very… unique… life choices.
And documented them. In Federal Court.
I'm a little confused. Bill had stated in a sworn court document in multiple places that Eric has sent emails and called the management of his place of residence. But in the attached exhibits I can find nothing that indicates that Eric did either of those things. He does provide emails from some anonymous actor, but nothing from Eric.
So is Bill stupid or lying? Yeah, yeah, I know, embrace the power of 'And'
I am sure Cardinal really will like being involved in a lolsuit filed by their tenant over butthurt.
He has assured that they will be.
As least we don't need no stinkin' badges!!

From Paragraph 9:
"…Plaintiff adopted a tactic of using publicly available information to identify his anonymous attackers."
The gist of his complaint seems to be variations of saying his attackers used "publicly available information" against him.
"It all started when he hit me back."

Trump Appoints Son-in-Law as Top Adviser
Jared Kushner, son-in-law of of President-elect Donald Trump walks from Trump Tower, Nov. 14, 2016, in New York.
American President-elect Donald Trump has appointed his son-in-law Jared Kushner to a high-level position in his administration.
Trump asked Kushner to serve as a senior adviser to the president.
Unlike cabinet positions, the job of adviser does not require approval of the United States Senate.
Six members of Congress are questioning Kushner's appointment. All six belong to the Democratic Party.
The lawmakers wrote a letter to Attorney General Loretta Lynch and the U.S. Office of Government Ethics. They noted that a 1967 law bars a public official from appointing a family member to the same agency in which the official serves. They also asked the Justice Department and ethics officials to investigate possible conflicts of interest.
Jared Kushner is married to Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka.
Lawyer Jamie Gorelick is advising Kushner on legal issues. She said the law does not affect the president because the White House does not fall under the definition of an agency.
The lawyer also said that Kushner plans to sell all his foreign investments and his financial interests in an investment company and an office building in New York. He also will resign as head of Kushner Companies and as the publisher of The New York Observer newspaper before working for the Trump administration.
The six lawmakers questioned Gorelick's statement that Kushner would remove himself from decisions involving his remaining financial interests after leaving his companies. They said he would still have investments that could be affected by government policy that he influences.
Aides to Donald Trump said that, as a presidential adviser, Kushner will work mainly on issues involving trade and the Middle East. They said he will work closely with Chief of Staff Reince Priebus and Chief Strategist Stephen Bannon.
Legal experts are offering differing opinions about whether the appointment of Trump's son-in-law violates the 50-year-old law.
Kathleen Clark is a law professor at Washington University in Saint Louis, Missouri. She said her understanding of the law is that it does affect the president.
"Congress didn't in this law carve out an exception for the White House," Clark told the Associated Press. She said it governs the presidency, the legislature, the courts and the District of Columbia government.
But Indiana University professor Gerald Magliocca said he did not think the law could be used to restrict the president's team without risking constitutional problems.
"It's hard to see why Congress has the authority to limit presidential staff members," he said.

Plassenburg – zamek w mieście Kulmbach w Bawarii. Jeden z najbardziej imponujących zamków w Niemczech – przez wiele lat uważano, że Plassenburg to modelowa budowa twierdzy. Dzięki temu, że został zbudowany na wzniesieniu jest jednym z najlepszych miejsc orientacyjnych miasta.

Pierwsze wzmianki historyczne o budowli pochodzą z roku 1135, kiedy Berthold II von Andechs był wspominany jako  comes de Plassenberch. Rodzina Plassenbergów, rezydująca w zamku Plassenburg, zaliczała się do ministeriałów hrabiów Andechs (później książąt Andechs-Meranien). Od Gundeloha von Blassenberg (Plassenberg) wywodzi swe korzenie (od 1149 r.) prominentny frankoński ród szlachecki Guttenbergów. Nazwisko "Guttenberg" pochodzi od nazwy frankońskiej miejscowości Guttenberg (dziś w powiecie Kulmbach) i zostało przyjęte przez Heinricha von Blassenberg ok. 1310 r.

Od 1340 r. miastem Kulmbach władali Hohenzollernowie, początkowo jeszcze tylko jako burgrabiowie Norymbergi, zaś zamek Plassenburg aż do roku 1604 był ośrodkiem, z którego rządzili swymi terytoriami we Frankonii. W połowie XVI w. kolejny władca Plassenburga, margrabia Kulmbach Albrecht Alcybiades Hohenzollern, awanturnik okresu wojen religijnych w Niemczech, usiłował zdobyć dominującą pozycję we Frankonii. Wszedł w ostry spór z tzw. "związkiem frankońskim", kierowanym przez księcia saskiego Maurycego Wettina. Został jednak pokonany w bitwie pod Sievershausen (1553), a następnie wyparty z Frankonii. Sam zamek został zniszczony w 1554 r.
W następnych latach zamek został odbudowany przez architekta Caspara Vischera w stylu późnorenesansowym w formie wielkiego pałacu-twierdzy. W 1792 margrabia Aleksander sprzedał Plassenburg swojemu kuzynowi, Fryderykowi Wilhelmowi II, królowi Prus. Armia francuska połączona z siłami bawarskimi pod dowództwem Hieronima Bonaparte, brata Napoleona, prowadziła oblężenie Plassenburga w 1806. W roku 1810 Kulmbach weszło w skład Królestwa Bawarii, a zamek był wykorzystywany jako więzienie i jako szpital wojskowy.

Podczas drugiej wojny światowej twierdza wykorzystywana była jako ośrodek szkoleniowy i wypoczynkowy Organizacji Todt. Obecnie jest to muzeum i miejsce imprez kulturalnych. W twierdzy znajduje się znacząca liczba pruskich artefaktów wojskowych oraz duża kolekcja portretów. W zamku znajduje się największe na świecie muzeum figurek cynowych. Kolekcja liczy ponad 300 tysięcy 31 mm figurek, prezentujących historię świata od czasów antycznych do wieku XIX.

Co dwa lata w latach nieparzystych latem  odbywają się figurowe  targi kolekcjonerskie.

ST. Arizona Diamondbacks Pro Shop . LOUIS -- The Dallas Stars are trying to make a late playoff push. Against a team battling for first place overall in the league, the Stars stepped up their game. Colton Sceviour got the first two goals and Antoine Roussel scored on a breakaway in the third period to give the Stars a 4-2 victory over the St. Louis Blues on Saturday night. "This was a huge test for us," goalie Kari Lehtonen said. "One of the best teams in the league and we played last night and travelled here late, and showed up, and it was just a huge win." Cody Eakin had a goal and assist and Lehtonen made 33 saves for the Stars, who have won four of five in pursuit of a Western Conference playoff spot. Dallas entered the day three points out of a playoff spot before winning for the second straight night and saddling the Blues with just their sixth regulation home loss. The Stars opened a five-game trip after beating the Predators 7-3 on Friday and won without production from their top line of Tyler Seguin, Jamie Benn and Valeri Nichushkin. "I dont know if desperation is the word. That kind of sounds bad," Sceviour said. "But definitely we feel like these are games we need to win. "This is a start and we want to build off it."
