We are conducting a survey for our project about increasing suicide trends in Japan. We need Japanese or people who are well in the know about the Japanese culture and society.
Do reply our questions in the "Yes/No" format accompanied by a reason.
1. Would you be interested in a manga with a storyline that promotes anti-suicide (infused with soothing aromas that help calm the state of mind)?
2. Would you prefer to have a robot to care for your parents/grandparents? The robot is able to read emotions and give comfort/encouraging messages and even inform you/a family member when the 'victim' is spotted to be in distress, perhaps lightening the load of you taking care of you parents/grandparents while juggling work.
3. Do you think a vending machine that dispenses food that is scientifically proven to increase a person's "happiness" be effective in tackling suicide?

Reviews for this host's other properties
The Apartment is just great. The interior is luxuriously furnished and functional. Two bathrooms: for parents next to the bedrooms and a bathroom for children. The landlady is very nice and helpful. The parking is provided in front of the house. From the airport 10 minutes away: very practical. It is very centrally located, so you can move in a few minutes via highway in all directions. The holiday was very nice and we felt like home. Many Thanks!
Die Unterkunftswohnung ist einfach Spitze. Die Einrichtung ist luxeriös und praktisch eingerichtet. Zwei Bäder: für Eltern direkt neben dem Schlafzimmer und ein Bad für Kinder. Die Vermieterin ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Die Parkmöglichkeit ist direkt vor dem Haus gegeben. Vom Flughafen 10 Minuten entfernt: sehr praktisch. Man ist hier sehr zentral, so dass man sich in wenigen Minuten via Autobahn in alle Richtungen bewegen kann. Der Urlaub war sehr schön und wir haben uns wie Zuhause gefühlt. Vielen Dank!
Very nice well-kept house, the garden is fantastic and the owners are very friendly. There you can completely relax and enjoy the tranquility.
Sehr schönes gepflegtes Haus, der Garten ist traumhaft und die Besitzer sind sehr freundlich. Dort kann man komplett entspannen und die Ruhe genießen.
Very nice house and above all beautifully situated right on the small harbor. Everything else has also worked well.
Sehr schönes Ferienhaus und vor allem wunderschön gelegen direkt am kleinen Hafen. Alles Andere hat ebenso gut geklappt.
It has everything uncomplicated and very well.
Es hat alles unkompliziert und sehr gut geklappt.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
The house is really nice and we can only recommend this. It is even more beautiful than in the photos. We stayed 2 weeks in the autumn of 2014 in the Villa Silvina and we did not miss anything. Only disappointment was that we had to clean the apartment on its own after a week and the replacement sheets were put down only at the entrance and we had to do this myself. We're not used to us by Mallorce FINCAS, especially not in this price range.
Das Haus ist wirklich sehr schön und wir können dies nur weiter empfehlen. Es ist noch schöner als auf den Fotos. Wir waren 2 Wochen im Herbst 2014 in der Villa Silvina und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Schade war nur, dass wir nach einer Woche die Wohnung eigenständig putzen mussten und die Ersatz Bettwäsche wurde nur beim Eingang hingestellt und wir mussten dies selber tun. Das sind wir uns doch von Mallorce FINCAS nicht gewohnt, vorallem nicht in dieser Preisklasse.
We were completely satisfied and had a good time.
Wir waren rundum zufrieden und hatten eine gute Zeit.
Stay with 4 persons. The house was very nice and everything you need for a great holiday was present.
Aufenthalt mit 4 Personen. Das Haus war sehr schön und alles was man für einen schönen Urlaub braucht war vorhanden.
good location and good apartment

Maybe I'm the last person to find out about this but apparently there is a Dragonball online game out in Taiwan and Korea.
~ WikipediaStory
The events of Dragonball Online take place in the age 1000 (216 years after Goku) with the role of villain going to a group headed by Miira. Miira originates from the Demon Realm and is attempting to invade the Earth in the age 2000, with the help of Frieza's army and the Red Ribbon Army, but currently has his eyes set on the past by way of time travel. The purpose for him wanting to go back in time is so that he can attempt to obtain Goku's DNA which he will then use to strengthen himself for when he invades the Earth in the future. Currently, all known henchmen of the Dark Eye have been under the effect of mind control. Mind controlled victims are characterized by a green gem marked with an "X" that rests in their forehead (in some cases it may be in their chest or could also be a mask instead of a gem).
You play as a character from an unknown time period who is sucked through a crack in time caused by Miira's Army and eventually make your way to the age 1000 (with the help of the Time Patrol). Throughout the game you'll be able to travel through them into the past to preserve the Earth's history either through time cracks or with the help of the Time Patrol.
It should also be noted that all of the events that the player witnesses in the Age 1000 currently only take place on the planet Earth. Both the Majin and Namekian race start their journeys, just like the Humans, on Earth. The new planet Namek was destroyed by Miira in the age 853 and sections of the Earth have since been terraformed to resemble the planet Namek.
~wikiPlayable Races and Classes
The Human Race and Classes
Of the three races, the humans have the longest established culture on Earth, and they're also the most prolific, having spread to all corners of the world, including the Wastelands. As of Age 1000, the human race has become cross-bred with the Saiyan race, and as such, many believe that the race holds a powerful, hidden potential, due to their part Saiyan blood. In Age 820, the remnants of the Frieza Army invaded Earth; the war and environmental destruction has given the human race an intense drive to protect the planet.
Humans in the Age 1000 are well aware of advanced fighting techniques. This is all thanks to Son Gohan, who published the book "Groundbreaking Science" around Age 800, presumably introducing concepts such as Ki control to the general public and ushering in a worldwide revolution in martial arts.There are three different kinds of human you can choose to play the game. Each one has its own attacks and techniques:
Martial Artist (武道家 Budoka?) - Fighters who specialize in martial arts, comparable to characters like Yamcha and Krillin.[2] After the players reach level 30 they can become either a Swordsmaster or a Fighter AKA Polemaster, in which case they will learn skills using a sword or a polearm, respectively. If the humans collect all dragon balls they will be able to wish themselves Super Saiyan.
Spiritualist (気功家 Kikoka?) - Mystics who specialize in spiritual techniques, like Chiaotzu and Tien.[2] The level 30 Master classes are Crane Hermit and Turtle Hermit.
Engineer - "Mechanics and inventors who build weapons and utilize technology, much like Bulma and her dad." This class is currently not present in the game, but has been announced. If the class is added to the game the level 30 master classes include Gun maniac and Mech Maniac.
The Namekian Race and Classes
After the namekian's homeworld, Planet Namek, was destroyed, they migrated to New Namek. However, that was attacked by Miira in Age 853, forcing them to move yet again. They settled on Earth, primarily around "Porunga Rocks", a region that was terraformed to resemble Namek. They now work on behalf of Kami-sama Dende to prevent Miira from causing global destruction. Unlike other races, namekians are genderless and reproduce asexually.
There are two different kinds of Namekian you can choose to play the game. Each one has its own attacks and techniques:
Dragon Clan (龍族 Ryuzoku?) - Namekian Dragon Clansmen are the rare namekians born into the Dragon Clan, who have the ability heal others and to create and control shenlongs. The Dende Priests follow the teachings of Kami-sama Dende, who is regarded as the greatest spiritual teacher in Namekian history, and emphasize healing and strengthening their allies. Poko Priests, on the other hand, vomit eggs that hatch into demon shenlongs called Pokopen, which they can control. The level 30 master classes include Poko Priest and Dende Priest.
Warrior (戦士 Senshi?) - Warrior-type namekians that follow the teachings of the legendary namekian warrior, Piccolo, and they fall into two categories Makai Warriors and Madou Warriors. Makai Warriors follow Piccolo's teachings, while the Madou Warriors are those who have reinterpreted Piccolo's teachings to develop a new style. The level 30 master classes include Dark Warrior and Shadow Knight.
The Majin Race and Classes
After Goku left to train Uub, Mr. Buu and Mr. Satan won the 28th Tenkaichi Budokai by cheating, and remained undefeated through the 29th and 30th. However, after a while, Mr. Buu became envious of the humans and the close relationships they had with their sweethearts. In Age 790, Buu accidentally found and read Mr. Satan's copy of "Bob and Margaret", a controversial adult book, in his library. He began to study it in order to create a "Female Buu" that would be just his type. With the name Buuby in mind, he removed part of his body and molded it into a wife for himself, then finished by hitting her with a Love Beam, causing her to give birth to a "Baby Buu". From then on the population grew like wild fire, and, in time, the descendants of Buu were recognized worldwide as the Majin race. They're an optimistic and joyful people who dedicate themselves to making "fun days" for others, though they can become dangerous when they're angry or confused. They stand against Miira in order to create a more pleasant Earth.
There are two different kinds of Majin you can choose to play the game. Each one has its own attacks en techniques:
Wonder Majin (異魔人 Imajin?) - The Imajin are majin that at some point experienced the corrupting influence of sin. They're aggressive, and develop fighting techniques capable of really hurting their enemies. The level 30 master classes include Plasma Majin and Karma Majin.
Mighty Majin (大魔人 Daimajin?) - The Daimajin have a natural gift for uplifting the spirits of those around them and are also able to reduce the impact of enemy attacks with their soft bodies. They can become Ultimate, musicians who enjoy fighting and rally their friends with songs, or Grand Chef, chefs who torment their enemies with a mischievous and fattening fighting style and use maces that resemble foods. The level 30 classes include Grand Chef Majin and Ultimate Majin.

Comments: I want to like these shoes, but after running in them for 300+ miles I've "finally" realized it's not a "breaking them in" issue. My the bottoms of my feet ache and beg for me to take these off after 6-8 miles. I somehow did 14 miles in them today, but now that I took the shoes off I realize that was a giant mistake. The balls of my feet are so tender that I can hardly stand for a few minutes. The shoes fit great, toe box is wide enough for my fairly narrow feet, and I like how feel for short runs. I dislike their long run performance. Going back to Saucony, I guess.
From: Karen, Phoenix, AZ, USA. June 14th 2014
Comments: I want the Glycerin 10 back. The Glycerin 11 is awful. My feet ache everytime I run 5+ miles. This never happened with the Glycerin 10. My advice to Brooks: Don't change something if it ain't broken.
From: liz, Miami, fl. 2/4/14
Comments: I love these so much I want to give them a bad review so the rest of you won't buy them. The color is vibrant. No rough seams inside to irritate on long runs. Ran 13.1 in them the first time out.
From: AJ, Texas

I have been asked over and over again to make a lesson on "how to draw Chris Motionless", step by step from Motionless in White. His real name is Chris Cerulli and he is the lead vocalist in the band. Chris one of the studio guitarists, studio bassists, and studio keyboarders. They have two albums that I know of called 'Creatures', and 'Infamous'. Sketching him out was bit odd because he is so gothy looking. I haven't made lessons on drawing goth people in so long, when I do one I feel out of place. Nonetheless I still had fun with recreating this singer's look and style so have fun as well. Enjoy people!

Lucky Flip-Flop
"I bought these for my daughter - who is very selective of her shoes - and they passed with flying colors. They were actually the only pair of flip-flops that she wore this summer. The fit is perfect - I prefer my flip-flops to have a little extra room but these didn't have any - which is what my daughter prefers. She said that they were the most comfy flip-flops and she loved the clover on top."

President Obama won't be traveling to eastern Ukraine anytime soon, even if he wanted to.
One of the regions seeking to break away from Ukraine has placed travel bans on Obama and other world leaders, citing in part their own sanctions on Russia over its incursion into Ukraine.
In addition to Obama, the splinter state that calls itself the Donetsk People's Republic placed travel sanctions on German Chancellor Angela Merkel, European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton, and British Prime Minister David Cameron.
"The republic announced its borders and airspace were closed to Obama and Merkel for 'conniving with so-called acting 'President' of Ukraine Oleksandr Turchinov.'
"It also criticized the leaders for using the term 'anti-terrorist' when referring to an operation by Ukraine's government to dislodge separatists from strongholds in cities across the east.
"The statement came after the group asked to be annexed by Russia, following a controversial referendum backing the move and mirroring the path of the southern peninsula of Crimea in March."

Eating Disorders comprise a group of conditions characterized by emotional distress and compulsive behaviors related to food. Anorexia refers to the compulsive restriction of calorie intake often accompanied by an intense fear of evidencing any body fat. At times such individuals develop perceptual distortions in which they perceive themselves as fat despite being evidently underweight. Another Eating Disorder is Bulimia in which individuals compulsively cause themselves to vomit to prevent calorie intake. Some bulimics eat large quantities of food, referred to as binging, prior to purging through vomiting. A third Eating Disorder is compulsive overeating in which individuals consume far more calories than needed which can be driven by a number of unmet...(view profile to read more)

I do not abide by universally accepted BMI's or stereotypes regarding dress size. A client should be happy with their figure the way they are. If not, they must curb their addiction to food. Portion control seems to work well along with music therapy. It used to be thought that listening to the radio boosts appetite at mealtimes. By the same token, discontinuing the music can help a heavy person reduce.

2006 CITES Ban on Caviar Lifted
Following 2006 ban, CITES authorizes 2007 quotas for all Caspian Sea caviar except beluga
Geneva, 2 January 2007 – The Secretariat of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) has today published the export quotas for caviar and other sturgeon products from the Caspian for 2007.
The publication of 2007 quotas contrasts with the situation in 2006, when the Secretariat did not publish caviar quotas for the Caspian Sea's sturgeon fisheries because the five States concerned – Azerbaijan, the Islamic Republic of Iran, Kazakhstan, the Russian Federation and Turkmenistan – did not provide sufficient information about the sustainability of their sturgeon catch.
Recognizing that sturgeon stocks have declined in recent years, the States bordering the Caspian Sea agreed amongst themselves to reduce the combined catch quotas for the Sea's six sturgeon species by an average of 20 % compared with 2005, with reductions of one third for some species.
In line with these reductions, the combined quotas for caviar exports are 15 % lower than for 2005, the last year for which quotas were published. Quotas for caviar exports from Persian and stellate sturgeon have been reduced by over 25 %, while quotas for caviar from Russian sturgeon have risen by 23 % (see the table below).
The fact that the catch quotas have been reduced more than the caviar quotas is largely due to the decision by the Russian Federation to use fewer of the fish it catches for restocking hatcheries and a higher percentage for caviar exports.
It has not been possible to publish quotas for beluga, the world's most valuable caviar, because the information provided by the five range States is not yet complete. Tasked by the CITES member states with ensuring that all required criteria and procedures for publishing sturgeon and caviar quotas have been met, the Secretariat has granted the range States an additional month to provide the missing information before a final decision is made.
"The decision taken by CITES last year not to publish caviar quotas has undoubtedly helped to spur improvements to the monitoring programmes and scientific assessments carried out jointly by the five Caspian neighbours", said CITES Secretary-General Willem Wijnstekers.
"However, ensuring that sturgeon stocks recover to safe levels will take decades of careful fisheries management and an unrelenting struggle against poaching and illegal trade. The income earned from the sale of sturgeon products in 2007 should provide both an incentive and the means to pursue the long-term recovery of this commercially and ecologically valuable natural resource," he added.
Meanwhile, recognizing that sturgeon stocks in the Black Sea/lower Danube River have been seriously depleted, Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia and Ukraine have requested zero quotas for 2007. While Serbia requested a small quota for Beluga caviar exports, no quota has been published owing to a lack of agreement amongst the range States.
In the case of the Heilongjiang/Amur River on the Sino-Russian border, a fishery shared by China and the Russian Federation, the Secretariat is seeking further clarification of information submitted by the States concerned and has not been able to publish a quota at this stage.
Mr. Wijnstekers added, "Although many of the measures adopted by CITES are aimed at exporting countries, importers also have important obligations. They must ensure that all imports are from legal sources, and they must establish registration systems for their domestic processing and repackaging plants and rules for the labelling of repackaged caviar".
Additional background
As caviar stocks continued to decline through the 1990s, the Parties to CITES decided to place all sturgeon species that remained unlisted on its Appendix II as of 1 April 1998. Since then, all exports of caviar and other sturgeon products have had to comply with strict CITES provisions, including the use of permits and specific labelling requirements.
In 2001, CITES responded to high levels of poaching and illegal trade in the Caspian Sea by agreeing to a temporary ban. Extensive discussions and stronger actions by the range States were required before the annual quotas could be agreed for 2002 to 2005. The Secretariat was unable to publish quotas for 2006.
With the agreement of the sturgeon range States, the rules on how to set quotas under CITES have become increasingly rigorous. To have their proposed quotas published, countries with shared sturgeon stocks must agree amongst themselves on catch and export quotas based on scientific surveys of the stocks. They must also adopt a regional conservation strategy, combat illegal fishing and demonstrate that their proposed catch and export quotas reflect current population trends and are sustainable.
The CITES regime requires caviar and other sturgeon products to be sold during the same calendar year in which the fish are caught. Because caviar is also a popular local delicacy in many of these countries, they must also focus on strengthening their controls over domestic trade in sturgeon.
Reduced supplies of caviar from the wild have encouraged many countries to establish aquaculture facilities for sturgeon, but in order to preserve incentives for the conservation of wild sturgeon stocks it is important to maintain a catch of these fish at sustainable levels.
The CITES Secretariat is administered by the United Nations Environment Programme.

From Thomas Jefferson Encyclopedia
Shadwell was the plantation of the Jefferson family. Located in Albemarle County, Virginia, it was named after the parish in London where Jane Randolph Jefferson was born.[1] The land was purchased from William Randolph by Peter Jefferson in 1736 for "Henry Weatherbourn's biggest bowl of Arrack punch".[2] A year later, in 1737, Peter Jefferson built the original house on the property and in 1739, following their marriage, his wife Jane Randolph Jefferson joined him there. Thomas Jefferson was born at Shadwell in 1743, but spent only a few years of his childhood there.[3]
The original house built by the Jefferson family was a one-and-a-half story frame dwelling, which burned in February of 1770.[4] Archaeological work has been done on the property, and in 1991 two cellar foundations were uncovered, one of which is believed to be the site of the original main house built by Peter Jefferson.[5]
In 1841, Col. Frank Ruffin and his wife, Cary Anne Nicholas Randolph Ruffin, built the current main house. Although located on the original 'punch-bowl tract' of land, the current Shadwell residence is not located near the site of the original Jefferson house.[6]

This is a really good question to be honest . I'd have to go with Somewhere far in another dimension and it can only be revealed after a certain something happens such as the earth or SS being destroyed.
** On a side note i'm going to go out on a limb and guess that Ichigo is the soul king
Sig By Damon Max
anyway yea i think that the realm is not as big as SS but just like the size of seireitei were all the captain level shinigamis who live there could fit in like nothing and the king is probably like some spirit or something that cant fight unless someone wield him, i assume he is like a spirit of a zanpakutou but thats just mi opinion u know like shaman king's great spirit
I wonder if when aizen uses the key, it'll look like this:
I think the kings realm would look like a Shogun's castle or maybe Kubo would completely change the style and go for that europian aestetic for the setting, and the character designs. But that'll be too ironic even for Bleach.
Also, stop assuming that the Royal Guard are on an awesome 10 times stronger level than normal captains; we don't know how strong they are. Plus, if they've seen Aizen's shikai, it's game over regardless. He can manipulate even their sensing of reiatsu, because he puts them under complete HYPNOSIS, not illusions.
Blergh, old thread is old, I realized I just posted the same refutation twice... oh well.

Injuries continue
Jason Gregor
January 05 2009 11:55AM
Already down their first line RW, the Oilers might face the Islanders tonight without their first-line centre, as Shawn Horcoff will be a game-time decision with back spasms. Horcoff's back flared up this morning and coach MacTavish is hoping his ice-time leader among forwards can go when the bell rings.
Marc Pouliot will play tonight, but where is yet to be determined. If Horcoff can't go then he will play centre; if #10 is in, then Pouliot expects to be back on the wing with Cogliano and Moreau. Horcoff's status will determine who sits out tonight either way. If he goes, it will either be Brule, Reddox or Strudwick drawing in.
Dwayne Roloson will start in goal tonight.
Change in Style?
Zack Stortini seems to have shaken his Huggy Bear moniker by being much more of a chucker in his last five fights. He has also tested his endurance with some lengthy bouts that have lasted more than a minute. Stortini credits working with former tough guy and current assistant coach with the Edmonton Oil Kings, Rocky Thompson.
"I've been working on improving my fighting and Rocky has been great. He works on how to use different angles, the positioning of my hands, and how to move my head more. His advice has given me a lot more confidence and I'm feeling more comfortable in that area."
Whatever advice he is getting from Thompson and Jason Strudwick seems to be paying off, and Stortini's overall game has improved. He has been move involved physically and that fourth line, while they're not scoring as much as last season, has become more noticeable every game.
GMs Talking
Steve Tambellini and Garth Snow spent a long time talking at the morning skate today. Some of the talk involved Steve's son Jeff who will play for the Islanders tonight, but you wonder if those two are looking to make a deal. The Islanders will clearly be a seller as the season goes along, and outside of Mark Streit and Rick Dipietro you would think every other Islander is available.
Trent Hunter would attract the most attention, but Snow is hesitant to move him. Bill Guerin, Doug Weight and Mike Comrie are all UFAs at the end of the season, and only Guerin has a no move clause. So look for at least one of them to be moved.
Let's see if the Oil can bring in Jeff Tambellini. He'd be a good fit for the simple relation that the Oil have gone from taking care of their own to employing ONLY their own.
Couldn't agree more with your comments on Zack. It seems that after Laperrier (SP?) made fun of him by mimicing his huggy-bear style he's more willing to stand up and exchange punches. Good on him.
Cole has also looked great the last couple of games. Maybe having guys like Hemmer and Horcs out for a few games will wake up some of the passengers up, and they'll start producing with the additional ice-time. That's my New Years glass half full take on it anyways.
Did anyone else notice how slow and boring the Oiler game seemed on Sat night after switching over from the World Juniors? Are the Juniors actually out-skating NHL players? That's what it seemed like to me. Or are they just playing with more Gusto because everything's on the line? Either way, I wish we could get energy like that out of the Oil. Go Canada!!
@ Chaz:
Could not agree more about the WJC to Oilers compare. Very little emotion from the Oilers (or Stars for that matter). Just a bunch of guys punching the clock.
Although can we expect high level emotion every game from every Oiler ? Probably not.
Can we bring back Mark Messier !?
January 05 2009, 01:07PM
Trent Hunter would be a fabulous player to pick up.
Chaz, I think most junior games you will find that they look like they outskate the NHL players. It's hard to tell what line is # 1 and what line is # 4 most of the time. They all work every shift and play a quick game. Now maybe they buzz around like that because they need to because the skill level isn't what it is in the NHL where guys can get by floating for a few shifts and then 'turn it on'. Playing for a pay-day might motivate more than getting paid to play.

Last year the kid line woke up with the added pressure, maybe this year will be the same. Gags has had a better run offensively since Hemmer has been out. Granted this has a lot to do with Cole coming on as well.
About the World Jr's, I was actually chatting with a few buddies about it ahead of time (it was while we were watching the USA match, before the Flames game on new years Eve). I was expecting it to look a lot slower. Part of that is the systems that they play in the NHL. With the rare exception it's always preached that you better give up less than you create. That and it's hard to play balls to the wall every night through a 82 game schedule. Physically it's pretty much impossible actually (without injuries anyway).
What's with all these Jr games on the same as Oilers games anyway? My wife is getting sick(er) of hockey!
This one hurts. I've been critical of Horcoff's play and huge contract extension but he does play monster minutes for this club. Who is going to take all those left side draws?
juniors rock, I think cuz it's a short tourney with alot on the line. Eberle has been real good. Wouldn't it be funny if they traded for comrie!!! HAHAHA, the sweet irony!
there is Nothing funny about bringing back that flaming bag o douche comrie. were far to "comunist" for him anyhow. Now Hunter... me likey :)
January 05 2009, 04:58PM
Steve Tambellini has said before that he has no interest in dealing for his son. He even said that if he was offered a job in New York instead of Edmonton, his first task would have been to trade away his son.
Whether this is true or not is yet to be seen, but going by what he's said in the past, I would bet against it.
Isn't Trent Hunter a local product?
January 06 2009, 07:36AM
As much as Garth has loved Jeff, he hasn't been able to really develop at the NHL level and capture his AHL success. Maybe he would be happy in Edmonton. Islanders Country wouldn't be THAT upset to see him go. GREAT KID, just hasn't quite made it yet. But neither has anyone ELSE on our team!

Comments: The 10" is KILLER. You don't need much weight when you Tx rig it. Cast it out, eat a sandwhich, and reel in that 6 that ate it while it sat there on the bottom.
From: Jay6: USA 5/9/16
Comments: tried these after reading about Gary's "chicken rig" with good success. Just noticed where these were used on a drop shot at bass fest on Kentucky Lake and was curious as to how they as well as the ones commenting on here about dropshot ting the Kut Tail worm are hooking them? Nose hook or Texas rigging on a worm hook? We have a lot of success dropshot ting year round but this is a go to for our night tournaments all summer long sometimes 30 foot deep or even more and I am wanting to give these a try. I had bought the 7.5" but am curios as to what size others are using for drop shotting. Thanks and tight lines!

Comments: Great lure, very smooth action I normally rig these on a weightless Texas Rig. I've used soft baits by company's like Yum and Strike King but I honestly keep coming back to these.
From: Joshua: Salem, VA
Comments: These are the best. There is so much action in the tail on the fall. i would throw a black/blue 6.5" kut tail worm all the time if i wasnt addicted to buying soft plastic baits.
From: Bubba: NJ
Comments: In Europa, the 4 inch green pumpkin kuttail worm is a perch killer. Fishing texas rig or dropshot.
From: Marcel: Duebendorf, CH, Switzerland
Comments: I bought two packages of these on sale in Texas. I brought them home to Michigan took them north and was bank fishing, caught numerous bass and also a pike.. I bought the black ones and I guess they thought it was a very large leach but fish actually followed it for a bit then bit and held on!! These baits since they have the cut tail produce a different vibration in the water than a regular curly tail worm does seems to drive fish crazy. I rigged my worm texas using a 3/0 offset ewg worm hook.. these worms can be rigged carolina or wacky I am sure. They are loaded with salt and cast and sink very well. The method I used was just dragging it along and giving it a few small twitches with the rod tip.

Mostly comfy
"My only complaint so far on these shoes is that they were rubbing the back of one of my heels (after about an hour or two of wearing them). I'm thinking/hoping it will get better as I break them in. Really cute shoes though and worked well for someone like me who has a little bit of a wider foot."

so cute and so comfy!
"These shoes are amazingly comfortable. I bought the same ones in black and they were so awesome that I had to get these in brown too. The supportive rubber sole means that you can wear them when you'll be walking a lot or standing for long periods on hard surfaces and your feet and legs won't get tired. But they don't look like orthotic shoes at all. They are really cute. Perfect for jeans but the gold shimmer makes them nice enough to wear with a dressy top for out to dinner. I love the cork detail on the bottom of the sole."

Vegan shoe!
"I found these shoes in the clearance area of my DSW store. The slightly shiny yet conservative look caught my eye, and the lack of leather sealed the deal once I tried them on. I am between a 7.5 and an 8 and tried on both sizes. I chose the 7.5 so I would be able to wear these without socks in the summer, but I now know that the back of the shoes rubs a bit, which gets uncomfortable with extended wear even with socks. I would still buy these again because the footbed can't be beat for comfort. I must have an incorrect footstrike because the contours don't match the way I walk! Not annoying at all, and I actually try to walk the way this shoe wants me to just for the fun of it."

Israel successfully launches a first strike on Iran, taking out all of their nuclear sites and six of their nuclear warheads. American president William Jackson threatens to support a U.N. Security Council resolution condemning the Jewish State for unprovoked and unwarranted acts of aggression. And the Twelfth Imam prepares to order a genocidal retaliation.
Meanwhile, CIA operative David Shirazi has infiltrated the Iranian regime and intercepted top secret intelligence indicating that two Iranian nuclear warheads survived the attack and have been moved to a secure and undisclosed location. In danger not only from the ongoing war between Israel and Iran but also from the increasingly hostile governments in multiple countries, Shirazi and his team are in a race against time to find the remaining nuclear warheads before the most cataclysmic event in the history of the Middle East comes to pass.

"Is it a story it is it today's news?"
Amazing that I can listen to this book then I'm listening to the radio and have to pause to remember if it is a book or the news. The reality of what Joel brings forth is what can be happening today in the news. This is a GREAT book. In fact, the entire series is tremendous!
Considering that I have a reading disorder, the Audible compamy has quenched a great day of time with Audible as my greatest personal fre
"Read them in order and enjoy"
I would love to give a eloquent and engaging review but all I can say is, Read These!
The Rosenberg series has been days of excitement and thought provoking narration.
I only give 5 star ratings for true everlasting masterpieces. (Like Outlaw Platoon by Parnell and Bruning, and The Outpost by Tapper) After once again wishing I could give a 4.5 for this whole three book series I give it a absolute guarantee of enjoyment if you are a reader like I.
"Great Series Good book"
Another good book by Joel C Rosenberg. A good mix of what is happening today with Bible prophecy and history. A good follow up to the Tehran initiative and the 12th Imam.
"Not disappointing!"
I enjoyed Damascus Count Down very much. Joel Rosenberg is a very good storyteller and when you mix in the fact that he is an expert of the Middle Eastern culture, it gets very exciting.
"Weak ending"
intelligent blend of Biblical truth, science, and current political issues. I thought the ending was not as good as the rest of the 3 book trilogy.
Not the best Rosenberg fiction. OK, entertaining, but it felt to me like the story had to end, so it did. I felt more fatigue than suspense toward the end.
"SO far, this is my favorite fiction by Rosenberg"
I have not read the print version. It is better for me because I listen as I do cardio.
The end. Loved the conclusion.
I am not sure. He did a great job here.
The author is always teaching about the last day of this era of mankind from a biblical perspective. I believe that he is accurate, informative and entertaining.
"You know what you are getting"
If you have read or listened to other books by Rosenberg, you know you will be getting a lot of religion mixed with action. This is the third book in this particular series by Rosenberg. It's better because there is more action than before. But it can be a bit of religion overload at times. Still I enjoyed listening.
"Good story and very relevant to our times"
A good follow-up to the earlier books and one I enjoyed more than Book 2. Joel Rosenberg is not a top level writer, say, in the class of Daniel Silva, but he still has an important role to play in the writing firmament. Daniel Silva can subtly work in information from earlier books that you need to know but Joel Rosenberg doesn't have that talent. So, sometimes you are a bit confused about who the people are and that takes away from the current book. Also, a really talented writer can make a book in a series stand alone through working in what you need to know and that isn't there in this book. These books are better read in the series of 3.
Having said that, the story is amazingly close to events in the world and is worthwhile for that alone. It's a good story and the characters seem believable and people who you care about. I like the Christian backdrop as a refreshing change to the dominant view permeating everything else and I don't find it overdone. The narrator was amazing, with a huge range of accents to pull off and I found myself beginning to visualize the characters based on his voices. So, great stuff and I'd be happy to read Book 4 in the series if there ever is such a thing. Since the world doesn't end in this one (spoiler alert), why not?
Lisa Stevens
"Simply Awesome"
I'm glad I chose the unabridged audio version over print. The reader did voices so well, I forgot the characters were fictional. The story seemed real
Dr. Birjandi's final stand in the facility. I wondered if he would truly stand for Christ. I knew in my heart he would, but it was amazing to see it happen. He was afraid but did what he had to do. I sometimes time wonder if I could be as courageous. This scene reminded me to be in prayer and ready at all times to speak the truth even if might mean my execution.
Nouri's kidnapping from the hospital had me off the edge of my chair. It didn't seem like they could pull that off, but the quickness and unity of the team made it happen. I loved the courage, teamwork, and daring of all the players.
Twelfth Imam Goes Down -- he was the essence of evil. Glad to see him go.
Lots of page-turning tension. I now have no more fingernails, but it was worth it. My favorite book of 2013 so far.
"Rosenberg delivers BUT"
Rosenberg puts together another page turner but intertwined in the espionage, bombs and intrigue are too many personal stories of characters finding Jesus. I don't know if he's trying to broaden his appeal or just doesn't realize how these ill fitting, forced and interruptive these subplots are to the story.

News, Analysis and research on Land Reform and Agrarian Change around the world
I was in Brazil to participate in the "International Encounter of Struggling Youth" as a Turkish delegate, which was held in Marica, Rio de Janeiro in June 2016. After the youth encounter, I had the chance to stay a couple of weeks in Brazil to visit some camps and settlements of the Agrarian Reform, some cooperatives and agroecology schools of MST.
Campaigners in Brazil on Wednesday hailed a court decision to cancel a major land acquisition deal because investors had illegally acquired territory from small-scale farmers. A state court in Piaui in Brazil's poor northeast issued an order canceling the deal for a tract of land larger than Los Angeles earlier this month.
Since the early 1990s, Cambodia has been heavily reliant on foreign aid. The Cambodian Government is seeking to reduce donor-dependence and increase self-reliance, aiming to lift the country to the status of higher middle-income country by 2030. This goal depends heavily on increasing private investment, and the Government has described the private sector as the "engine of economic growth" for Cambodia. It is therefore seeking to encourage both foreign and domestic investment in order to maintain current growth rates and facilitate continued development of the country.
Land speculation stimulates the expansion of plantations across Brazil, increasing land conflicts and displacement of campesino and Indigenous communities. Historically, Indigenous and peasant communities in Brazil have resisted against violence and displacement. Land concentration is a root cause of social and economic inequality, in a country where 1 percent of large landowners control over 90 percent of agricultural land. In the past 12 years, 390 Guarani Kaiowa Indigenous people were assassinated in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, where agribusiness corporations and local large landowners have expanded monocropping of commodities.

Have You Replaced Your CLEARRAY® Bulb?
Jacuzzi® Hot Tubs are easy to take care of, including all the small parts you may not think of on a weekly basis. Water maintenance, in particular the CLEARRAY® System, is a perfect example. Here's what you need to know about this water care system and how to keep it operating at peak performance:
What is CLEARRAY®?
The CLEARRAY® System uses exclusive UV-C technology to neutralize 99.9% of waterborne pathogens that you cannot see so your water will be fresh and clean, without the uses of gasses.
Which Hot Tubs Models Include CLEARRAY®?
The CLEARRAY® System has been standard on all Jacuzzi® Hot Tub models since 2012, but can be retrofitted to 2006 models. You can easily add this to your older model with a CLEARRAY® aftermarket kit.
How Often Should the Bulb Be Replaced?
The bulb, the most important part of the CLEARRAY® System, lasts quite a bit longer than you'd think. Engineered for efficiency, this small tube just needs to be changed every 12 months to maintain optimal performance. (Remember not to touch the bulbs with your bare hands when swapping them out).
You can purchase the bulb at your local dealership, or online here.
What Else Can I Do to Keep Water Clear?
If you really want crystalline, odor-free, and silky smooth water, use the ProClear®Spa Sanitizer in tandem with the CLEARRAY® System. Using trace elements of silver, it kills more bacteria than chlorine alone and "softens" your water.
To learn more, check out this video on water maintenance.

The Board of Commissioners rejected a bid to buy the Finance Building located near City Hall.
"I'm more concerned about the future," said Commissioner Art GIles, who thinks that the City might need that building at some point as the City continues to grow.
The building sits at the corner of N. Mt. Juliet Road and East Caldwell.
Mayor Ed Hagerty made the motion to reject a bid that was $229,000. The appraised value was $220,000.
Commissioner Ray Justice didn't understand why they would reject a bid that gave them more than it was appraised for. The measure passed 4-1, with Justice voting against it.
The commissioners also voted to disallow all pawn shops and payday loan establishments except in Industrial Restrictice zoning. There are only a few spots in the city limits zoned IR, with the majority being around Industrial Drive.
In other business, the Commission voted for the budget and design of a dual right turn lane from Providence Way onto northbound Mt. Juliet Road, and to reduce the Hotel-Motel Tax by 20 percent.

PwC's Cleantech Perspectives enable us to share some of the thoughts and insights we have gleaned from our groundbreaking project work and research in the cleantech industry.
This issue's topic:
Cleantech tax - What to watch for in 2014
An overview of recent tax policy developments relevant to producers, developers, and investors in the cleantech sector, along with insights about potential Congressional action on energy tax policy issues during 2014.
The production tax credit (PTC) for wind, biomass, geothermal, and several other energy sources expired at the end of 2013 - although companies that began construction on projects by the end of the year generally will be eligible for tax credits once those projects are placed into service.
Support for and opposition to the PTC breaks across party lines. Although a bipartisan group of senators has called for allowing the PTC to expire, prominent supporters of renewing it include the likely next chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR), and Finance Committee member Charles Grassley (R-IA).
More broadly, extension of the PTC and other expired renewable energy incentives is likely to be bound up with an overall package of "tax extenders," addressing some or all of the more than 50 currently lapsed provisions in the tax code. In recent weeks, Senate tax committee leaders have indicated an interest in taking action on tax extenders early in 2014 and making that action retroactive. In contrast, House leaders have been less willing to discuss tax extenders, preferring instead to focus on a potentially broader reform of the corporate tax system.
In contrast to the wind industry, solar developers have relative policy stability for the next several years since the investment tax credit (ITC) for solar, fuel cells, and certain other technologies is slated to remain at 30% through 2016 and drop to 10% for 2017 and subsequent years.
In December, President Obama announced that Senator Baucus would be nominated to serve as US ambassador to China. Senator's Baucus' likely confirmation by the Senate would result in a change of leadership at the Finance Committee. Senator Wyden, the third-ranking Democrat on the Finance Committee, appears likely to take the chairman's gavel. Although Senator Wyden generally has been supportive of renewable energy, this change could affect both the timing and substance of tax proposals considered by the Senate this year.
Over the past several months, current Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-MT) and the committee staff have released a series of discussion papers outlining options for a comprehensive reform of the current corporate tax system. These changes would be intended to reduce corporate income tax rates while eliminating many current tax preferences and deductions.
In December, Chairman Baucus released an energy tax reform discussion draft. The discussion draft would simplify approximately 40 current energy tax incentives into two basic categories of activity: clean electricity production, and clean transportation fuel production. Within these two categories, taxpayers would be able to choose either a PTC or an ITC. The clean electricity PTC would be up to 2.3 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh), and the ITC would be up to 20 percent. The clean fuels PTC would be up to $1 per gallon, and the ITC would be up to 20 percent. The amount of each credit available for a specific project would be based on a sliding scale measured by how clean the electricity or fuel is relative to baseline standards.
Unlike current tax credits, these credits would phase out based on specified improvements in greenhouse gas intensity of the underlying activity, rather than a calendar sunset date. Specifically, the clean electricity credit would phase out over a three-year period beginning the year after the overall US electricity sector is certified by the EPA to be 25 percent cleaner than it was in 2013. The clean fuel credit would phase out over three years after the year in which EPA certifies that greenhouse gas intensity of all transportation fuels is 25 percent cleaner than in 2013.
Finally, as a transition to the new system, the discussion draft proposes extending through 2016 the current PTC; the credit for residential renewable electricity investments; and the credits for transportation-grade, renewable, and alternative fuels. It also would repeal or not renew eleven other tax provisions.
The current uncertainty about the PTC may drive investors toward solar, fuel cells, and other technologies that qualify for the ITC, unless tax extenders are addressed relatively early in 2014. As always, investors and developers will want to keep one eye on Washington as they assess their project models.
Longer term, the Baucus proposals represent the first attempt to harmonize the numerous clean energy tax provisions that have grown in the tax code. In addition, the new proposals coupled with the extension of existing credits through 2016 seek to establish a long-term policy for clean electricity and fuels, a refreshing change from existing credits that frequently expire.
Since the post-2016 system proposed by the Senate Finance discussion draft is intended to be technology-neutral, some energy sources may benefit more from the post-2016 system than under existing credits, and other energy sources may receive lower benefits than under existing law. Energy developers, producers and investors should carefully review the discussion draft and consider the impact on energy projects in progress and planned for the future.
