Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Reverie TGS 2009 Hands-On Preview
The most obscure Dragon Quest makes its DS debut.
And... it's a Dragon Quest game, alright. While some gamers may have expected the odd gap between the remakes of DQV and DQVI to have something to do with this new remake running on Dragon Quest IX's fully 3D engine, that's absolutely not the case. DQVI looks exactly like ArtePiazza's previous entries in the series: Tiny sprite heroes travel in a convoy across the landscape, towns and dungeons are rendered in chunky 3D, and battles play out in a static first-person perspective enlivened by gorgeously-animated enemy sprites. Battles play out exactly the same as previous games, with the party members available in the demo using largely the same pool of skills as in every Dragon Quest: Kazap, Frizzle, the usual.
Of course, it's not the general shape of a Dragon Quest game that makes it so appealing but rather the specifics: the story, the characters, the system. None of those things really come through on a trade show floor demo, of course, so the relative strengths of this adventure compared to its peers will only become apparent over the course of the full tale. The overall plot for DQVI involves something akin to dimensional travel: The hero and his friend Hassan journey back and forth between two different worlds, trying to unlock the mysteries of each. By reputation, it's not entirely unlike Dragon Quest VII in many ways; this makes some sense, as both games were originally developed by Heartbeat (rather than Chunsoft, who programmed the first five games). Fortunately, the plot seems to move along far more quickly than DQVII's did.
Another similarity to DQVII comes in the game's job system: Once players visit the Dharma Shrine, they're able to change their class freely. This works pretty much like DQIX's job system: Each class a character trains in has its own levels, and switching to a new class reduces a character to Lv. 1. However, they retain each job's levels, so switching back to a previous class will take you back to whatever level you had earned for that class.
Between these two features -- the intriguing exploration of parallel worlds and a large party of characters who offer enormous flexibility for customization -- DQVI should prove to be yet another satisfying entry in the series. Square hasn't announced a release date for Japan yet, but expect it to arrive by the end of the year. (Between this and DQIX and Final Fantasy XIII, the company should make a tidy profit this year.) And whenever it hits, the U.S. version should be a few months behind... though the fact that DQIX still hasn't been announced for the West may cause some delays. But American Dragon Quest fans have waited nearly 15 years to see this game localized; a few more months shouldn't be too painful to deal with.

I'm liking the character designsPosted: Sep 25, 2009 12:00AM PST by bshirk
Hopefully the plot is more like IV and V's than VII's, because I just couldn't stomach that game. I wish you could actually see your characters in battle though, so you could tell what the job classes look like. That was one of my major beefs with VII.
Finally some DQ VI newsPosted: Sep 24, 2009 12:00AM PST by Purkeynator
Thanks Jeremy for covering this. I have been looking on all the game sites looking for anything on this title. Can't wait for it to come out and complete my DW/DQ set and finally play the missing chapter.

Learn more about the Alleluiafund, donate, and sign up for the Alleluia! Golf Open.
Greetings from Rock Point and the Bishop's House, where I'm about ready to head for some vacation time. Before I do so, I wanted to send out a summer greeting to you, and give you an update on the good work and success so far of the Alleluiafund. To date over 165 of you have made generous gifts or pledges to the Alleluiafund, and so far we have in hand about $25,000 in gifts and pledges. That's a great start to our campaign, and I'm very grateful for the support and generosity that so many of you are demonstrating.
One of the ministries that gets supported through the Alleluiafund is the Rock Point Summer Camp, and things are well under way at camp this summer with great staff, a wonderful group of campers -- I've been down a few times already to visit with them during the course of the summer -- they are having a great time, and the staff under the leadership of Sherry Osborn, our camp director, are doing a great job of providing them a great Christian camping experience.
I also wanted to remind you and invite to participate in the Alleluia Open, the golf tournament that supports the Alleluiafund. That's scheduled for Saturday, September 10 at Basin Harbor Club in Vergennes. We're looking for a great turnout of golfers. We also need lots of volunteers to help with the event. And we also need people, congregations, groups to be hole sponsors and tournament sponsors to help raise the money that the Alleluiafund needs from the Alelluia Open to meet our goal. It's a great opportunity for fellowship and fun and all the proceeds go right to the Alleluiafund and its ministries. So sign up for that if you're able, and even if you've never played golf before, we'd love for you to come and share the event with us, and maybe even be a volunteer.
So as we head out for some summer vacation, my hope for you is that your summer has some time for rest and recreation, and that whatever time you spend with friends and family in the beauty of Vermont or wherever your plans might take you this summer, that you do so with joy in your heart and a sense of hope and a sense of wonder at the beauty of God's creation all around us. Ann and I will be heading out for some time together with our friends and family, and we look forward to that time of rest and recreation for us as well.
So, happy summer to you all. Do support the Alleluiafund. We need the generosity that you provide to make it a success.
May God bless you as you continue your many ministries, and continue our life together as the Episcopal Church in Vermont, where we seek to engage God's mission faithfully and fruitfully and with compassion, energy and the kind of evangelical committment to Jesus and to the Jesus movement that is so much of a part of our life together. God bless you, and may you have a great summer. Bye for now.

Joint statement from Bishop Christopher Coyne and Bishop Thomas Ely - July 8, 2016
We write as two of Vermont's faith leaders whose hearts are aching in response to the recent acts of violence filling news reports and social media networks this week. The tragic deaths of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile by police officers earlier this week and deadly assault on police officers in Dallas last evening grieve us to no end. Certainly, our hearts and prayers go out to those killed and injured in these violent incidents, as well as to their families and the communities most directly involved. We value the hard work and faithful commitment of those entrusted with public safety in communities throughout Vermont and beyond. Those who serve the public in dangerous situations are to be commended for their service. Violence directed against police officers in the line of duty has no place in our society.
At the same time, we deplore the sin of racism that so often rears its ugly head in acts of prejudice, discrimination and violence toward people of color in our country. This too, has no place in our society. The disproportionate number of young black men incarcerated in our prisons, the often unevenly enforced laws that contribute to that reality and the all too numerous acts of verbal and physical violence directed toward persons of color disturb us greatly.
Respecting the dignity of every human being and understanding that we are part of one human family are foundational tenets of faith for us, and we lament the varied ways in which so many people fail to embrace those basic values and beliefs. Expressions of hatred and violence seem all too common in our world today and the results are always damaging.
Clearly, there is investigative work to do in regard to these most recent events and it is our hope that justice is swift, full and fair with respect to each. As Christians, we know that prayer is essential and so we call upon our respective communities of faith and all people throughout Vermont to offer prayers this weekend for all who have died violent deaths this week, their families, friends and the communities where they live. Pray for an end to violence and for the courage to love without prejudice.
Prayer must also move us to action and so we invite you to join with us in taking concrete action that might renew our covenant to honor and respect one another as members of one human family. We invite you to take steps that work to build a culture of peace to replace the culture of violence that has us firmly in its grasp. We are deeply concerned and yet ever hopeful.
Bishop Christopher Coyne, Roman Catholic Diocese of Burlington
Bishop Thomas Ely, Episcopal Diocese of Vermont
The following is a reflection from Jane Lee Wolfe, St. James, Woodstock parishioner and Director of Bog Chapel, Inc. an educational not-for-profit organization that focuses on the spiritual health and spiritual fitness of human beings, from youth through old age.
Many of us know the good wolf/bad wolf parable – the grandfather telling his grandson there are two wolves inside us that battle, the grandson saying which wins, grandpa saying the one you feed.
Ok this makes good sense. However, when we get to the matter of what to or how to actually feed that good wolf, we are not sure what to do.
Let's look at it this way and discover the formula that grows a great, compassionate, humble and fearless wolf inside, and that furthermore is easy to feed:
The good wolf has three basic nourishment needs: peace, joy and love.
Peace is the good wolf's oxygen. When you start to get nervous and frantic you are getting spiritually anaerobic and need to breathe. In and out, oxygen and peace. This insures your life, your existence. Breathe in, let the good wolf live and have its being.
Joy is the good wolf's water. When you get so you can't move and ache and are semi delusional, you are spiritually dehydrated. You need to take in the great water of joy. You do not have to go on a bear hunt (for which you have no energy) to find and drink in joy. The springs of joy are at your feet always. The clear refreshing liquid can course up through your feet and through your body. You can drink it in also, letting the spring open and splash in your face, fall like a waterfall so you can bathe in it.
The United Thank Offering has awarded a grant of $19,060 to the Episcopal Church in Vermont for the Rock Point Land Use/Forestry Initiative. A ministry of the Episcopal Church in Vermont, Rock Point is a 130-acre property that is an educational, recreational and spiritual resource--an exemplary model of an "urban wild" within the city limits of Burlington, Vermont.
The purpose of the Rock Point Land Use/Forestry Initiative is to gather people from a wide and diverse cross-section of the larger community to help jump-start the three-year Land Use and ten-year Forestry Plans approved by the Rock Point Board in 2015.
The Initiative addresses significant objectives, including: removal of invasive plants such as buckthorn, Japanese holly and poison ivy; pruning the fruit trees; improvement of the trails, with new boardwalks to protect wetland areas and implementation of policies developed to prevent erosion and safeguard rare plants; gardening that reaches out to food insecure individuals and families; boundary maintenance and signage; and enhancement of specific habitat for the American Woodcock.
The grant will provide a total of 1040 hours of salary for two temporary staff positions–a Volunteer Coordinator and a Garden Coordinator. Creating these positions will provide Rock Point year-round staffing and extra caretakers. It will also help organize the increasing numbers of people from the greater community who are interested in volunteering. Achieving the benchmarked results for the Land Use and Forestry plans will help Rock Point leverage additional grant and conservation funding. Also provided are Buckthorn pullers and protective clothing to assist volunteers in beginning to deal effectively with the invasive plants around the gardens and trails, including poison ivy.
This is the second significant grant Vermont has received from the UTO. In 1988 a $20,000 grant provided seed funding to start Vermont Respite House – a "home away from home" hospice house for people who didn't have primary caregivers. It was the first of its kind in the country and still serves as a model of care for terminally ill people and their families and friends. Rock Point's Land Use/Forestry Initiative is the start-up of another model of care-this time, care for a uniquely beautiful part of the earth that its visitors, "churched" and "un-churched" alike, recognize as holy.
Bishop Ely has appointed the Rev. Dr. Fred Moser as Episcopal Diocesan Ecumenical and Interreligious Officer (EDEIO) for the Episcopal Church in Vermont. EDEIO is the national network of those designated by their diocesan bishops with special responsibility for encouraging the search for the wider visible unity of Christ's Church and collegial relationships with members of other religions.
Moser brings significant experience in ecumenical and interreligious relations to this position. He served in a similar capacity as Ecumenical and Interreligious Officer for the Diocese of Massachusetts until 2015, when he moved to Vermont to become rector of Trinity Episcopal Church in Shelburne. In the Diocese of Massachusetts Fred served on the Board of Directors of the Massachusetts Council of Churches, and represented the diocese in a wide range of ecumenical and interreligious contexts -- local, regional, and national –- including the National Workshop on Christian Unity and the Annual Meeting of Episcopal Diocesan Ecumenical and Interreligious Officers. In Massachusetts Fred also served as rector of the Church of the Holy Spirit in Wayland, where he convened the Wayland Interfaith Clergy Association, a vibrant consortium of Jewish, Christian, Muslim, and Unitarian Universalist leaders with which Fred developed an internship in interreligious leadership with Harvard Divinity School. Prior to serving in Massachusetts, Fred was chaplain of Hobart and William Smith Colleges in Geneva, New York, served parishes in Connecticut and New Jersey, taught religion at Trinity School in New York City, and was an associate campus minister at Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota.
The following is a report from the Rev. Dr. Titus Presler of St. Matthew's, Enosburg Falls, who represented the Episcopal Church in Vermont at the 2016 Global Episcopal Mission Network (GEMN) Global Mission Conference in May. GEMN, of which the Episcopal Church in Vermont is a member diocese, brings people together to exchange ideas and best practices, encourage each other, and provide resources to those who are exploring their call to engage in global mission. Presler serves on the GEMN Board of Directors.
"Evangelism and reconciliation are two sides of the same coin," declared Presiding Bishop Michael Curry at the Annual Global Mission Conference held May 18-20 in Puerto Rico by the Global Episcopal Mission Network (GEMN).
"I do thank God for you, both for GEMN and those that serve as missioners and missionaries on behalf of the Episcopal Church in the context of our global community," said Curry in his keynote address. "The truth is that what you do and what we do matters, and how we do it matters. It matters significantly, temporally and eternally. It matters."
Over 120 people from Episcopal dioceses in the USA and Latin America attended the conference on the theme of Mission amid Migration in the context of the record 60 million migrants, refugees and displaced persons around the world. Episcopal Migration Ministries offered a keynote, and the conference closed with a panel of Latin American and Caribbean church leaders discussing migration challenges in their region.
About 20 Episcopal Volunteers in Mission (EVIM) and members of the Young Adult Service Corps serving in Latin America and the Caribbean attended the conference. GEMN's Mission Formation Program, which trains people to advocate for world mission, drew 15 people for the two-year formation process, including four people each from the dioceses of Ohio and Belize, which share a companion relationship.
I offered two workshops: "Not Alone but in Companionship: Anglican Resources for World Mission," and "Reconciliation: Testing our Mission by God's Vision."
GEMN is a freestanding network of dioceses, congregations, seminaries, organizations and individuals who support one another in world mission and advocate for the Episcopal Church's deeper global engagement.
It is with great joy that I announce the appointment of Maurice L. Harris as the new communications minister for the Episcopal Church in Vermont. This is a full-time position on the Diocesan Ministry Support Team. Maurice will be responsible for day-to-day communications planning and execution for the Episcopal Church in Vermont, and will serve as a coach, trainer and advocate for parish volunteers and staff responsible for communications. I am confident Maurice will play an important role in our diocesan initiative of "becoming more missional." Maurice was selected from a talented group of applicants by members of the Diocesan Ministry Support Team and members of Diocesan Council.
Maurice and his husband, Might, will be moving to Vermont from Cincinnati, Ohio, where they have been active members of Christ Church Cathedral and advocates for economic equity, social justice and LGBTQ rights. Maurice is founder and creative director of Pushpop Media, a full-service marketing and communication creative agency. Prior to launching his own agency, Maurice oversaw communications and media relations for Firstgroup America—parent company of Greyhound, First Student, First Transit, and First Vehicle Services— as director of corporate communications. He also managed communications for Fifth Third Bank as assistant vice president of marketing and communications for the central operations, mortgage and information technology divisions.
A gifted musician and composer, Maurice began his career in music, serving as head sales and music licensing manager for Legend Entertainment Corp. Maurice holds a B.B.A. in Management from Northwood University and an M.S. in Organizational Leadership from Mount St. Joseph University. He is currently working on a Ph.D. in Ethical and Creative Leadership from Union Institute and University with certificates in Education Leadership and Martin Luther King, Jr. Studies & Social Change. Maurice's pastimes include songwriting and hiking, and he notes Warren Falls and Rock Point as his latest adventures.
Maurice will begin his new ministry in Vermont on July 11, working out of his home office. He will take on this expanded communications role from Kathleen Moore, our current part-time communications minister, who is beginning her Seminary education at Church Divinity School of the Pacific this fall. Kathleen and Maurice will work together for six weeks as we make this transition. Please welcome Maurice into his new ministry with us!
Two hikers. Three weeks. 273 Miles. A quest to raise $10,000 for a scholarship fund for a at-risk youth pursuing post-secondary education. Tim Heath-Swanson and the Rev. Rick Swanson will hike Vermont's Long Trail in September. They plan to lace up their hiking books and raise $10,000 to create a scholarship fund for Laraway Youth & Family Services' clients who are pursuing continuing education in the trades and technical fields.
"Laraway students have untapped skills and gifts for life," says Swanson, who serves as rector at St. John's in the Mountains, Stowe. "The Trailblazer Fund will provide a path forward into their future." Laraway Youth & Family Services provides therapeutic foster care, operates an alternative school, offers clinical services and directs a public school based behavioral intervention program. Laraway is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Donations to the fund are tax-deductible.

It has been nice to have a second opportunity to get in after the secondary. I didn'y buy sooner because I was waiting to find out where the secondary priced.I'm concerned that the stock price may not bounce back as quickly as in the past. I suspect that there is worry that there will be another secondary before the ex-div date.I usually trade these for capital gains, but I'm wonderring if holding for the actual dividend might be a better strategy this year. After the last divided, there was not a huge drop in the stock price.Vector Vest seems to think AGNC is worth over 50. If I keep trading in and out, I might miss a move toward 50.
I would contact Vector Vest immediately and find out what they are smoking.
Vector Vest,, oh yes now I remember,, the good doctor sends out his picks a week later after the fact and claims victory.. yeh right!!!!! Their excuse is that they don't want their current investors to be swayed(into profits?)... BS!
Reits sell at most for 1.25 book value. AGNC is 1.22 times book value. Not going to hit $50 anytime soon.
1.22 vs. 1.25 book/navThanks. That was very helpful info.
If you have charting software, you are already as good at stock picking as vectorvest.

United States Patent 3,448,356 ELECTROSTATIC COPYHOLDER AND METHOD FOR MAKING SAME Anthony Q. Testone, Lansdale, Pa., assignor to The Simco Company, Inc., Lansdale, Pa., a corporation of Pennsylvania Filed May 24, 1966, Ser. No. 552,483 Int. Cl. G03b 15/00; H05f 7/00 US. Cl. 317-262 14 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A copyholder to which articles are adhered by electrostatic forces. A first conductive member overlies one surface of a dielectric panel and a second conductive member constituting a grid with open areas overlies the second surface. A D-.C. high voltage coupled across the two conductive members enables conductive articles to adhere to the second surface by virtue of the electrical field between the conductive members and emanating through the open areas of the grid. Non-conductive articles adhere by virtue of charges induced therein which are opposite in polarity to those produced on the second surface by the DC high voltage.
This invention relates to an improved electrostatic copyboard for retaining articles in position by electrostatic force preparatory to photographing or other operations, and more particularly relates to a method for fabricating such a copyboard.
In prior U.S. Patent No. 3,359,469 entitled, Electrostatic Pinning Method and copyboard, there was shown a fiat block or frame to the surface of which articles may be placed and then secured in position by electrostatic for'ces. The invisible electrostatic attractive forces eliminated the need for adhesives, tacks, pins, overlays and/or vacuum hold down constructions, all having obvious disadvantages especially well known to those skilled in the photographic and copying arts. In the foregoing patent application, it was demonstrated that the repetitive manipulation of non-conductive sheets during successive positioning could and would cause degeneration of the electrostatic pinning force with respect to a particular charge applied to the copyboard surface. However, it was additionally shown that such a diminuition of attractive force could be countered and immediately re-established to original intensity simply by reversing the polarity of voltage applied to the board. Nevertheless, the prior construction was somewhat inefficient in its use in connection with conductive articles and objects. Such was also true with non-conductive articles as well, for example atmospheric moisture conditions (high relative humidity) and even operation personnel perspiration conditions, caused a film of electrolyte to be deposited on the objects surface so as to impart a conductive effect thereto. That is, the principles of electrostatic attraction are governed by Ooulombs Inverse Square Law-the force between two electrostatically charged bodies is proportional to the product of the magnitude of the charges on the bodies and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them-expressed mathe matically:
where I F is the force of electrostatic attraction (or repulsion) between the charged bodies;
Patented June 3, 1969 It has been theorized in the art that the collection of the relatively high conductivity water fi-lrn at the interface between the two charged bodies reduces the etfective dielectric constant K. Hence, other investigators have endeavored to reconstitute a high electrical resistance at the barrier interface by evaporation of the water film and also providing a semi-conductive film or laminate at the interface, for example, one having a resistivity in the range 10 to 10 ohm centimeters. However, it has been found that while such semi-conductive laminates may improve the electrostatic attractive force upon conductive objects there was an accompanying reduction and in fact corresponding deterioration, of the attractive forces upon non-conductive objects.
The present invention relies on the principles of Coulombs Inverse Square Law in its application to nonconductive objects and, in addition, upon the fact that, within its shape limitations, a conductive body (or one rendered conductive by virtue of a Water film) tends to orient itself parallel to the lines of force of an electric field. The conductive body endeavors also to move perpendicular to and in the direction of the most concentrated or densest electrical field. Accordingly, the electrostatic holding device of the instant invention depends upon the creation of a plurality of charged condensers whose plates are so oriented that the lines of force of their electrical field are densest just below the surface of the board and in a direction parallel thereto while at the same time projecting a plurality of arcuate field patterns above the surface. Furthermore, the surface of the board is also fabricated to have an optimum effective area of non-conductive construction upon which electrostatic charges of a given polarity may be imposed for attracting and efiiciently retaining non-conductive articles and sheets.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide a new and improved electrostatic copyboard in which there is an enhancement of retaining forces for conductive articles, and those rendered conductive by virtue of a water film, without degrading the holding forces for non-conductive articles.
Another object of this invention is to provide an electrostatic copyholder in which a plurality of discrete electric field mosaics are formed by a grid construction defining a multiplicity of condensers within the surface of the copyholder while at the same time establishing a dielectric surface upon which electrical charges may be imposed.
Still another object of this invention is to provide a method for making an electrostatic copyboard which will accomplish the condenser-charged surface configuration by a painted-on grid arrangement.
Yet another object of this invention is to provide a method for making a grid-type electrostatic copyholder utilizing techniques which are simply effectuated.
Other objects of this invention are to provide an improved device and method of the character described that is easily and economically produced, which is sturdy in construction and both highly efiicient and effective in operation.
With the above and related objects in view, this invention consists of the details of construction and combination of parts as will be more fully understood from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, in which:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of a new and improved electrostatic copyboard embodying this invention.
FIGURE 2 is a sectional view taken along lines 22 of FIGURE 1.
FIGURE 3 is a sectional view taken along lines 3-3 of FIGURE 2.
FIGURE 4 is a sectional view taken along lines 4-4 of FIGURE 3.
FIGURE 5 is a perspective view of a conductive grid configuration applied to the rear surface of dielectric panel embodied in this invention.
FIGURE 6 is a perspective view of a conductive grid configuration applied to the front surface of the dielectric panel.
FIGURE 7 is a fragmentry perspective view of the copyboard showing the electric field of force in broken lines.
Referring now in greater detail to the drawing in which similar reference characters refer to similar parts, there is shown an electrostatic copyholder, generally designated as A, to the surface to which a sheet or sheets of design material, generally designated as B, are detachably secured by an electrostatic pinning force preparatory to photographing or other composition work.
The copyholder A comprises a stiff flat insulative base plate 12 to whose front face is adhesively secured a grid panel C. The base plate 12 may be made of wood but is preferably fabricated of a pressed fiber-board wood composition, such as tempered masonite, which is plastic coated on both sides for waterproofing and anti-warping. The base board 12 may be /2 inch thick for suitable subjacent support and can have dimensions which are rectangular and/or suitable for the needs of a particular customer.
Interposed between the grid panel C and the base board 12 is a dielectric panel 14 which affirmatively insulates the hereinafter discussed conductive back surface of the panel C from the base plate. The insulating panel 14 is preferably a polyester film, such as Mylar, and IO-mil (.010 inch) Mylar has been determined to have excellent dielectric characteristics for this purpose. The film panel 14 is secured to the surface of board 12 with a doublebacked adhesive tape interfacial arrangement at 13, such as Permacel #02 tape, which is a 2 mil rope-paper backing coated on both sides with a solvent resistant adhesive. Similarly, the grid panel C is adhesively secured to the insulating film 14 by a second layer 15 of doublefaced adhesive tape.
The grid panel C is also fabricated of l0-mil Mylar polyester film and has identical dimensional configuration as both the backboard 12 and the film 14. To the hack face of the panel C is applied a conductive pattern 20, which, in the case of a rectangular board A, has the shape of a rectangular border 18 enclosing a plurality of diagonally arranged stripes 22 therein. Refer to FIGURE 5. The border 18 is spaced from the periphery of the panel C by a clear margin 19 approximately 1 /2 inches in width since high voltage will he applied to pattern 20. The border 18 may be one inch wide all the way around, and the stripes 22 themselves may be /2 inch wide and spaced uniformly from each other by clear zones or nonpainted stripes 21. The entire pattern .20 may be incorporated by using a stencil and painting or rolling a conductive coating, such as Butens No. 13976 conductive paint, through the stencil. It is important to note that the stripes 21-22 on the back surface are arranged diagonally. However, while the configuration shown is at a 45 angle from the base, other inclinations varying from 30 to 60 from the base may also be satisfactory. In this regard, the angular disposition of the stripes 22 is only significant in its relation to the configuration of the stripes 32 on conductive pattern 30 on the opposite face of the grid panel C.
The conductive grid pattern 30 on the front face of panel C is also a geometric configuration and includes an identical conductive coating such as that on the rear surface. See FIGURE 6. In this case, however, the ground side of a DC. high voltage generator source G is applied so that the border 28 may extend directly to the periphery of the panel. The conductive stripes or bands 32 are disposed vertically with alternate longitudinally extending clear areas 31 intermediate adjacent bands. The border 28 is approximately one inch in width about the periphery, and the stripes 32 and clear zone 31 may each be /2-inch Wide. It is Worth mentioning again that the orientation of the stripes 32 with respect to the stripes '22 may be reversed so that the front pattern 30 may have diagonal bands whereas the rear pattern could have vertically or horizontally-disposed bands.
Referring now to FIGURES 2, 3 and 4, a metal flathead screw 24- is mounted in the lower right hand corner of the base board 12 and has a head which is in abutment with and directly connected to the border 18 of the high voltage grid pattern 20. A blob of conductive cement 2-5 is used to adhesively secure the screwhead 24 in firm electrical contact with the high voltage pattern 20. A terminal 26 is coupled to the rear portion of the screw 24 and extends downwardly within a bore 27 in the base plate 12. A male connector 34 is formed on the end of wire conductor .35 running through shielded cable D and is received within the bore 27 for engaging the female terminal 26. The lead 35 is connected to the high voltage side of the DC. generator G. The low voltage or ground side of the DC. generator G is connected to the shielding braid 37 which surrounds the insulation of cable D.
As is best illustrated in FIGURE 4, the grounded shielding braid 37 is connected to binding post portion 38 at the rear of flathead screw 40. The shank of the screw 40 passes through the clear margin 19 about pattern 20, and the underside of the screwhead 40 cemented at 39 With a blob of conductive adhesive to the border 28 of pattern 30. As is apparent, the patterns 20 and 30' are spaced from each other by dielectric film C of Mylar so that when the DC. high voltage is applied thereacross, the
patterns act as the opposed plates of a condenser. However, the stripes 22 are oriented obliquely with respect to the stripes 32. As a consequence, while the greatest concentration of the electrical field will be in the area where the stripes 32 overlie the stripes 22, the edge lines of force will pass through the clear zones 21 and 31 to define an electrical field which extends arcuately beyond the surface. See FIGURE 7. It is on the edgefield phenomenon with which this invention is specifically concerned.
Referring now back to FIGURE 2, the entire front face of the panel C, the peripheral edges of the base plate 12 and its rear marginal surface is then encapsulated with a polyvinyl fluoride shrink film 42, such as Tedlar. The shrink film 42 thus seals the edges of the board A and protects the exterior conductive pattern 30 by covering it. Thereafter, the edges of the board A are framed with a bezel 44 made of extruded polyvinyl chloride moldings which are mitered together and secured to the 'base plate 12 with finishing screws 46. Finally, a cover sheet 48 is hung from the upper edge of the copyboard A across the face thereof and acts as the active working surface. The cover sheet 48 is insulative in character and may be a fiber glass calendered sheet which is impregnated with silicon rubber.
The high voltage generator G is a conventional D.C. electrostatic power source which can develop a DC. potential in the range 5,00015,000 volts. The generator G is shown in block form and for purposes of the present invention develops a positive output when switch 50 is closed. Accordingly, a positive voltage will be imposed on the grid pattern 20 whereas the grid pattern 30 wil1 be at ground or negative. In this case, abutting a nonconductive sheet B against the face of the copyboard A, i.e. on cover shade 48, will cause the non-conductive sheet B to stick with a fair degree of attraction by virtue of polarization. However, if the sheet B is maintained in abutment for a short period of time and/or rubbed while abutting by a grounded operator, the sheet will pick up negative charges from ground. The net negative charge on the nonconductive sheet will cause it to be strongly attracted toward the positively charged grid pattern 20, especially Where the clear areas 31 overlie a conductive stripe 22. However, if, in addition, the sheet B were rendered conductive by a water film or if it were already a conductor as in the case of a metal foil, or even very slightly conductive, as for example, paper with about 5% moisture content, it would now be drawn by the arcuate fringe field or edge leakage lines of force which would extend from the stripes 22 through the clear areas 21 and 31 and back in an arcuate pattern to the stripes 32. These lines of force are demonstrated in broken lines in FIGURE 7. The field is most dense where the plates or stripes 22 and 32 overlie one another. However, these fields of maximum density do not penetrate beyond the overlying ground pattern, and are therefore not effective in attracting conductive objects. Nevertheless, the edges of the fields of the multiplicity of small condensers are effective to form fringe lines of force which, though of a lesser intensity, do extend beyond the surface of the cover sheet 48 and are most efiicient in drawing down conductive or even slightly conductive objects toward the field of maximum concentration, and pulling them down from a short distance.
The present copyboard, as did that of prior Patent No. 3,359,469, also permits a renewal of the charge by switching of the power supply G. The use of the switching arrangement (reversal of the polarity of voltage applied to the board) to accommodate diminution of attractive force is of even more importance with regard to the securing of conductive sheets B. That is, since thesheets B are, by definition, conductive, the surface charge is drawn oif the board much more rapidly than is the case of non-conductive sheets. Accordingly, switching must be performed between each successive application of conductive sheets rather than after a plurality of applications of non-conductive sheets which causes attrition.
For example, if the grid 22 first has a high positive voltage while the grid 32 is at ground, the arcuate field pattern would draw down the conductive sheet B. However, where the sheet B is further rubbed by the grounded operators hand, the sheet would immediately acquire a negative charge (from ground). When the conductive sheet is removed from the board, its negative charge is partially left behind upon the surface of the board to counterbalance the positive polarized charge on the boards surface. As a consequence, the whole surface of the board is effectively at ground potential and hence inoperative.
Should the voltage from the power supply G now be switched, the grid 22 would be at ground potential. Note also that the grid 32 would remain at ground potential since it is permanently connected to ground. However, the clear zones and spaces 21 and/or 31, where the two grids 22 and 32 do not superimpose, immediately drop to a negative potential. Therefore, arcuate lines of the field will emanate from these negative areas and terminate at the grounded stripes 22 and 32. Accordingly, the board is once more prepared to attract conductive sheets by virtue of the alternately established arcuate or secondary field. The board A is also prepared to hold non-conductive materials because of the negative voltage on the parts mentioned and act in the manner described in the prior application, Ser. No. 362,049.
In passing and in summary, it is to be observed that the diagonal orientation of one set of stripes 22 with the other set 32 reduces the likelihood of overlapping condenser plates and enables a staggering of the areas through which the fringe or leakage field may extend.
Still another mode of securing a maximum staggering of the condenser plates would be by a pair of checkerboard patterns whose conductive squares are arranged to overlie clear squares in the superimposed pattern.

The Syrian civil war could spill over far beyond its borders according to senior Israeli military sources, leading to fears that jihadis could "sweep through the region".
Military analysts also believe that no end is remotely in sight to the conflict and that it could last for 15 years.
It is now over a decade since I met Mouffak in the Aleppo souk. This young Syrian was a trader in objets d'art and he had a unique sales pitch: "If you come and see my shop, I'll show you my synagogue".
The European Union's refusal to classify Hizbollah as a terrorist organisation may be due to a backlash from the divisive discussions over lifting the Syrian arms embargo.
Britain's motion to have Hizbollah banned in Europe is supported by France, Germany and the Netherlands but was rejected for a second time last week.
Speculation is growing that the United States is preparing an alternative military plan for Syria amid doubts that its pledge last week to arm the rebels would have much effect on the balance of power in the country.
The US has said it will provide military assistance to Syrian rebel groups.
President Barack Obama made the decision after his government came to the conclusion that chemical weapons had been used by President Bashar al Assad's forces.
Ben Rhodes, a deputy national security adviser, would not go into detail about the weaponry the US intends to supply.
As news began filtering through that the Syrian town of Qusayr, next to Lebanon, had fallen to a combined force of the Syrian Army, Hizbollah and Shia and Allawite militiamen, at another of Syria's borders, refugees from yet another civil war battlefield gathered.
British National Party leader Nick Griffin visited Syria this week after being invited to take part in a "fact-finding" tour by President Bashar Assad.
Travelling alongside fellow MEPs, Mr Griffin repeatedly criticised the British government's support for rebels in the civil war, and commented on wider issues affecting the Middle East.
Israel yesterday reacted strongly to exit of Austrian peacekeepers from the Golan Heights.
Israel's Foreign Ministry released a statement expressing 'regret' at the withdrawal of 377 of the 1000 UN international peacekeepers who patrol the Israel-Syria border.
Fierce fighting has taken place on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights.
The town of Quneitra was reportedly siezed by the rebel Free Syrian Army earlier this morning. However, subsequent IDF reports say that President Bashar al-Assad's forces have now retaken it.
When Israel was founded out of Jewry's near-destruction, it was at once a liberation for Jews and a disaster for Palestinian Arabs. What happened in the subsequent years - who did what to who and when - is not the subject of this column, but we need to agree that something that was good for one people was bad for another.

The vote in eastern Ukraine yesterday was a pastiche of democracy. Its purpose was solely to allow Vladimir Putin to create yet another Russian subsidised mini-statelet and thus hinder any progress of the Ukrainian government towards membership of Nato or the European Union.
Mr Putin's strategic purpose, if it is worthy of such a grand designation, is to keep Ukraine in permanent, exhausting limbo. With Moscow's pinprick testing of Nato's defences in northern Europe, its intensified espionage activities and its nuclear exercises in the Barents Sea, Mr Putin is on the road to confrontation. The days when Russia could be

Father tells story of Canada's bobsledding Mormon, David Bissett
As a child, David was ambitious and hardworking. At age 7, he got a paper route, hiring his younger brothers from time to time. Always wanting the best equipment, David's flier and paper routes made up for the difference we would contribute. If a good pair of sports shoes for him cost us $80, he would come up with another $80 to get the best pair possible. Half the registration fees for football or basketball or track and field came from his personal industry.
Early mornings and early nights were David's norm; He was up early for papers, then early-morning seminary, school, practice and bed. For years, that was his routine. That kind of discipline comes from Kim, David's mother, a champion speed skater in her youth. David's grandpa, Gordon Strate, played defense for the Detroit Red Wings in the mid- to late '50s. Great Aunt Doreen Ryan was a two-time Olympic speed skater in 1960 and 1964.
David's short powerful bursts of speed were noticeable, and Pierre Lueders, one of the most decorated names in bobsledding, approached David at a track meet to see if he would consider pushing for Pierre. Initially, David had no interest. His heart and mind were set on football, and he was using track and field to keep fit.
Eventually, David accepted a later invitation for a tryout in the Calgary Olympic Park Ice House. Hooked and flattered away from football, David went from the Ice House tryouts to his first Olympics in Turin, Italy, within weeks. Before competing in his first Olympics, David had only slid in a sled four times. (Seriously. I couldn't believe it, either.)
Now, as a world-class athlete on the international stage, fans treat him like a rock star. From countries, including those in Europe, that take bobsledding as seriously as Canadians take hockey, David gets mail requesting autographed photos.
Am I a proud father? Most certainly.
David Bissett is a son, a brother, a returned missionary, a husband, a father, an uncle, a neighbor, a salesman, a Cub Scout leader, a nephew, a grandson, a hard worker, a Canadian, a bobsledder and an all-round nice guy.
And David is a Mormon.

The Casshern franchise is one that dates back to the 70's with 'Neo-Human Casshern', with a four episode OVA called 'Casshern: Robot Hunter' later being released.
Then, in 2008, we got Casshern Sins, a totally different tale from the previous "Save the world/humanity!" themes present in the previous series's.
One day, an amnesiac Casshern awakens to a world flooded with Ruin- humans are dying off, unable to reproduce, and the once immortal robots are falling victims to rust. The world is on it's last legs, civilization as we know it is about to be wiped out.
There is, however, an odd rumor going about. If someone devours Casshern, they will regain their eternal life. And so sets off Casshern's journeys into the wastelands on his quest to answer- what happened to the world? Why is he not yet affected by the Ruin? Why does he seem to have a true immortality that even other robots in perfect condition couldn't obtain?
Just who was the supposed savior of the world, the Sun Named Moon, and what was his connection to her and the seemingly hopeless situation around him?
Casshern Sins is, in my humble opinion, quite possibly one of the best animes I've ever seen, one I'm willing to put on the same level as Neon Genesis Evangelion and Puella Magi Madoka Magica (and just for the sake of my childhood, hell, let's throw Yu-Gi-Oh! into the mix! ... No? Ok...). The series itself tends to have a very episodic nature- it's primary focus for much of the series is Casshern's quest in itself, and tends to focus much on Casshern's encounters with people and robots (mostly robots) in the wastelands, some of which do not contribute anything to finding the Sun Named Moon. And honestly? It works out well.Read more ›
The animation is unparalleled and the voice acting is also great. The soundtrack fits the mood of the story perfectly. There are lots of interesting characters in this one as well. I am amazed by Casshern Sins. I can't say it's a favorite of mine b/c of the depressing mood of it; I like animes that are more happy. But ignore my personal preference and check it out. Everything about it is top notch.
Casshern Sins is a very strange, very confusing, very sad, very emotional, and very happy story in an awkward way. If you think that it's just about robots - drop the idea immediately. Great and emotional music, heavy and gloomy scenery, episode after episode... somewhat simplistic yet very deep style of drawing at the same time... Definitely not for children, that's all I can say... and don't be expecting to feed your 'wild side'... it's not about robots fighting each other, despite that there is a lot of it... it's about feelings and emotions (mostly sad and depressing, but somehow optimistic at the same time)... if you are looking for action and thrill - not your choice. Emotions rule here. Enough said. The only way to understand is to watch. There is really no way to like it or hate it. There is no need to. With this story, all you need to do is watch it and take in all in.
So I started a reluctant search for another anime that I would actually enjoy(I am RIDICULOUSLY picky when it comes to anime)...and after saying 'no' to a long list depending on the story line or reviews, I stumbled upon Casshern SINS. The artwork immediately caught my attention. A beautiful, soft yet almost decayed look and very different than other animes I'd seen. After picking through almost every review, I also became interested in the story and decided to take a chance...and watched the entire series in one weekend.
Casshern SINS has got to be one of the most tragically beautiful things I have ever seen. Everything, from the artwork to the characters to the storyline and animation is breath taking. The struggle every character goes through is wonderfully portrayed, and I quickly fell helplessly in love with them all. I gotta admit, the hair took me some time to get used to. One of the girls' bangs could clothesline someone, and I have no idea how Casshern fits his wild mane beneath that tiny little swim cap thing he puts on for battle, but you get used to it. You can't help but feel for these guys, and root for them every step of the way. Even the villains are just seeking what they see as their last hope in a dead world.
The story line, though its horribly heart breaking in some places, is different but a refreshing change to the usual plot you get.Read more ›
