I've checked numerous online stores and came out negative with box set 1. I've found none with it in stock as of yet. If all else fails, there is the option to purchase the first 5 DVD's individually. I've emailed TokyoPop about box set 1, but haven't heard back from them yet.

PS The individual DVD's 1-5 are the same as the ones in Box 1 so you would only loose the box itself if you cannot find it.

I had speculated that about the TokyoPop boxsets. With the individual DVD purchase scenario, I'd pay more for less (minus the box and the t-shirt.) That is the final option I have.

This series was a lot of fun to watch, I bought it off of Ebay for a pretty good price. There were some scenes that were a bit too ecchi and the character designs were kind of ugly, but the storyline was so great that it kept you watching. I highly recommend it.
I also recommend the Live Action version of GTO. It's great and it's unlicensed so you can grab it off of this site. =d

Manga ending
I think it was quite a good ending though. I recommend it. It would be better if the manga end with Onizuka returned though.
For more information on the manga story, check this website.
The live action is kinda an alternate universe of GTO. It is basicly the same but with quite some differences though. For example, there's no Urumi or Anko etc. It's enjoyable and certain episodes left me in tears. Hehe.
Time for me to ask question. How does the anime end? I didn't watch the anime....

Thanks alot for the summary. It was very well done ^_^. Anime version of GTO was really good too. I can say GTO is one of the few anime that made me depressed by being ended, not because it was depressing but because it was such an enjoyable anime. Regarding the ending, it wasnt that bad. I basically just didnt like it, because the same as Manga he doesnt return.
Spoiler for Anime ending:
I am really bad at doing summaries, sorry if it isnt clear enough . What i still cant figure out myself is why Onizuka even had to run. I mean Saito awakes at the end and the Board of the education gets revlealed to the public.
About the LA version of GTO , it sucks that they dont have Urumi. She was my favorit character too ^_^.

So the anime end this way. It seems to make Onizuka less godlike if he had to run away from police...
I agree that LA don't have much characters. And the students didn't have much role in helping Onizuka unlike in the manga. And each episodes feature the evil teachers trying to kick Onizuka out from school. Kinda funny. And Fuyutsuki had a bigger role in the LA. But honestly, I don't like her very much.

GTO question?
I watched Great Teacher Onizuka and I have a question about a trivial matter I thought was odd. Anyway, when they had to take the national test, where Onizuka had to score best points, they didn't show Kanzaki Urumi in the list of top scores from that test when the results came. I understood from the earlier episodes, that she's supposed to be a genius with IQ over 200. So, it would be reasonable, that she would've scored full points or at least something near to that score. Did the ones who created the serie forget her or what's the reason she didn't score excellent points from that test? At least I didn't notice that happening, did I miss something? Anyway, it kinda bothered me. It's a trivial matter, which doesn't matter, but it was kind of disturbing.
Bear with me.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.—After their dominant win in B division at the Yale Women's Intersectional, freshmen Marlena Fauer and Eugenia Custo Grieg were named the New England Intercollegiate Sailing Association Women's sailors of the week. They battled the strong breeze to claim two races.
Fauer and Custo Grieg have had a fabulous freshman fall campaign. They began the season with a second-place finish in B division at the Mrs. Hurst Bowl at Dartmouth and followed that up by winning B division at the Regis Bowl a week later hosted by BU. The third weekend they moved up to A division and finished second at the Women's Finger Lakes Intersectional hosted by Hobart William Smith. Two weekends ago they finished sixth in B division at the supremely competitive Navy Women's Fall Intersectional.
Fauer's and Custo Grieg's early success is very exciting for the young Bulldog team as they progress through the fall season.

Flavia deLuce is one of the most winning heroines to come along in a long time – wickedly funny, whip smart with a passion for chemistry (especially poisons) – and all of eleven-years-old. The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie delivers this unique and charming voice in one of the best mysteries of the year.
It's 1950 in England where Flavia, her Father the Colonel and her two older sisters live at Buckshaw, their decaying family mansion. The family, in the tradition of English novels, is full of eccentrics with the Colonel proccupied with his stamp collecting, and Flavia's sisters having little time (or regard) for her. Flavia keeps busy in her well-stocked chemistry lab, plotting revenge.
When a murder is committed in the cucumber patch at Buckshaw, Flavia believes it is "by far the most interesting thing that had ever happened to me in my entire life". When her father is arrested for the crime, Flavia leaps to action. Riding her trusty steed (bicycle) Gladys, she asks questions, investigates clues and begins to put together the web of intrigue. She's daring, resourceful and perceptive and gets to the answer quicker than anyone else. After all, who better than a young girl to find the answers – children are mostly unseen and their intelligence is usually underestimated, allowing Flavia more freedom then adults.
Readers will be happy to know that this is the first of a planned series of six books with the next title due early next year, where we can follow Flavia in another unique predicament.

The real estate at a crossroads has been a retail magnet for nearly two centuries. In 1837, a general store and tavern offered respite to travelers in the thinly populated wilderness. In front of this establishment, the story goes, owner and operator Henry Irby mounted an antlered deer's head for all to see. Hence, the area came to be called Buckhead, gateway to the most affluent neighborhood in Atlanta.
Stretching north and south from the crossroads is Peachtree Road, which extends south into downtown Atlanta as Peachtree Street. The main east-west thoroughfare is West Paces Ferry Road, which runs west through an exclusive neighborhood of sprawling and old gardened estates that house such prominent residents as media mogul Anne Cox Chambers and the Georgia governor. It is in this part of town that socially pedigreed ladies still belong to garden clubs and where luncheons are stylish and frequent.
From its intersection with West Paces Ferry, Peachtree Road winds through Buckhead's posh financial district, past upscale hotels to Simon Property Group's two high-end regional malls — the 821,000 sq. ft. Phipps Plaza and nearly 1.5 million sq. ft. Lenox Square.
When Atlanta developer Ben Carter came up with a bold $1.5 billion plan to remake the crossroads into a luxury mixed-use development, the area had morphed from a quaint turn-of-the-century shopping district, Buckhead Village, into a raucous 1980s night spot.
Under pressure from the recession and ailing capital markets, plans for the project, known as the Streets of Buckhead, have been scaled back to $1 billion by cutting two hotels originally on the drawing board. The project is being completed in two phases and will ultimately include 600,000 sq. ft. of luxury retail. The first phase, which includes 375,000 sq. ft. of retail and 360 residential units, has been delayed from 2009 to fall or spring of 2010.
"We have the flexibility to open either spring or fall 2010," says Carter. "We're talking to all of our committed retailers as well as those we're negotiating with to hopefully have a consensus on when everybody would like to do it, but my recommendation is fall 2010 for it to give some time for the economy to get percolating." The second phase will feature the remaining 225,000 sq. ft. of retail, 325 residential units and a 250-room hotel.
Carter believes that the delay will give tenants time to regroup financially and therefore negate the necessity to lower rents. He also wants to allow enough time for the project to attract the right mix of tenants. "This [project] needs to be done right the first time," he explains. "To get the Who's Who of luxury retail is very important to us."
Already tenants are committed to half of the project through a combination of leases and letters of intent. Another 20% of the project is in active lease negotiations. Retailers that have signed leases include Oscar de la Renta, Hermes, Etro, Bottega Veneta, Domenico Vacca, Loro Piana and Vilebrequin as well as stylish restaurants, including Japonais and La Goulue Bistro.
The development is financed with bank loans, private investors and institutional capital. The private equity comes from individuals in Atlanta with whom Carter has historically done business. Bank of America is providing the senior construction loan, and CBRE Strategic Partners IV has made a major investment of equity and mezzanine financing in the project.
The crosshairs of retail
Buckhead offers retailers a unique opportunity to tap a regional customer base. The submarket attracts not only local affluent shoppers, but it also has the added benefit of drawing consumers from the greater metro Atlanta area and from as far away as a four-hour drive throughout the Southeast. Patrons are drawn to the submarket by an array of dining selections and entertainment that ranges from jazz clubs to theater.
It is for those reasons that Buckhead retail fundamentals outperform the surrounding city. "The Streets of Buckhead has a very desirable location," says John Leonard, vice president and regional manager of the Atlanta office of brokerage Marcus & Millichap. "We're going to continue to see some pressure on vacancies going from 12% to 14% this year in the overall market. Buckhead is probably closer to 9% to 10%."
Weakening tenant demand will contribute to falling rents in 2009 in the metro Atlanta retail market, reports Marcus & Millichap. Asking rents are projected to drop 3.5% to $16.87 per sq. ft., while effective rents will decline 4.5% to $15.01 per sq. ft. While the brokerage does not break out Buckhead rents, Leonard believes effective rents have already fallen 3% to 5%.
According to New York-based research firm Reis, asking rents in the first quarter for the submarket that includes downtown, Midtown and Buckhead are flat year-over-year at $24.67. That compares with a 0.5% decline to $17.36 per sq. ft. in the overall Atlanta retail market over the same period.
"It certainly looks like the CBD-Midtown-Buckhead submarket is able to hold on to asking rents slightly better than the metro as a whole, but effective rents are cratering everywhere, suggesting more concessions," says Victor Calanog, chief economist for Reis.
Stick to your guns
While Buckhead rents are faring better than those in the metro area as a whole, Calanog predicts that the submarket will still suffer from the weakness pervading retail markets around the country.
Meanwhile, local industry experts say asking rents for the Streets of Buckhead range from $60 per sq. ft. to $80 per sq. ft. Achieving such lofty rates in a submarket where effective rents ranged from $30 to $50 per sq. ft. at their peak may be easier said than done.
"That's going to be a tougher battle to fight because we're seeing rent levels drop," says Leonard. "We're seeing in-place tenants retrade existing leases because of either financial difficulties or because they can." Leonard, however, believes that the long-term prospects for the Streets of Buckhead are good.
One challenge looming over Atlanta retail, notes Leonard, is an estimated 5 million sq. ft. of space that is expected to come on line this year on the heels of 1 million sq. ft. of negative absorption in 2008. "So I think most projects, if not delayed, are slowing down a little bit to catch a breath in this market."
Jon Barry, president of retail brokerage and property management for Atlanta-based Colliers Spectrum Cauble, has worked in the Atlanta market for the past 20 years. "Clearly the biggest challenge is tenants have removed themselves from the market," explains Barry.
"Some of the major bellwether tenants, for example Target, have delayed new development for perhaps three years, leading all of the secondary tenants, the junior anchors, to follow suit."
Weakening local economy
Atlanta's main economic drivers over the past 10 years — transportation, construction, and convention and tourism — are not functioning right now, according to economist Rajeev Dhawan, director of the Economic Forecasting Center at Georgia State University.
"If you take the convention tourism business, it's been hit by cancellations and companies pulling back, especially in the financial sector," says Dhawan. "Construction, which was the lifeblood of the economy here over the past five years, has really slowed." The volume of residential building permits, for example, today is down 90% from a year ago, he says.
In addition, as the airlines have cut back, development of a $1.6 billion international terminal has slowed at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. The project is now three years behind schedule.
While Atlanta's unemployment rate of 9.3% at the end of March eclipsed the national unemployment rate of 8.5%, the two numbers are equally dismal, Dhawan says. "Whether it's 8.5% or 9.3%, they're both very high so they're pretty much the same."
Even as banks bent over backwards to make retail loans over the past five years, says Dhawan, retail sales were less than stellar.
"Now you have not only a declining retail demand environment, but from the supply side you don't have any banks in the mood to make you a loan for retail development," he says.
As evidence of weak sales, the economist points to retail sales tax collections at the state level, which fell almost 12% during the first quarter compared with the same period last year.
Such weakness has translated into growing ranks of distressed assets in Atlanta's retail sector. A recent report from New York-based research firm Real Capital Analytics (RCA) reveals that as of April 22, 58 Atlanta retail properties were in distress due to default, foreclosure, bankruptcy filing or mechanic's or tax liens (see chart below). Those properties encompass 8.6 million sq. ft. with a value of $877 million.
At the same time, transaction volume is sluggish — only 34 of the 99 retail properties offered for sale in the past 12 months have sold, according to RCA. "The retail investment sales market has pretty much come to a grinding halt for a combination of reasons, but one of the biggest reasons is the lack of debt," says Kris Cooper, managing director of the capital markets group in Jones Lang LaSalle's Atlanta office.
Deals that are closing are those transactions that can be completed with assumable debt or carry-back financing in which the seller receives a down payment and then holds the mortgage himself. The few lenders that are willing to finance acquisitions these days are lending at 60% to 65% loan-to-value (LTV) compared with 75% LTV at the height of the market, says Cooper.
Falling property valuations are exacerbating both the distress and liquidity problems. "Everybody knows that values have clearly declined — whether they're down 25% or 30% is very hard to tell," says Cooper. "What we can tell is that for those deals that are trading, cap rates have risen dramatically."
Not everything's broken
As consumers tighten their belts, Atlanta retailers and developers are following suit, according to Liz Kabat Whiteside, senior vice president and principal for Dallas-based SRS Real Estate Partners.
"It's really a matter of delaying spending capital in '09. So what was once a 2010 delivery is now a 2011 delivery," says Whiteside, who leads the Atlanta office's project leasing team. "Preserving capital in '09 seems to be the mantra."
SRS's strategy against this backdrop is to only take on projects that are well located and which can compete in their submarket for retailers taking space in 2010 and 2011. As an example, Whiteside points to The Park at Druid Hills, a mixed-use development that includes office, hotel and 320,000 sq. ft. of retail. The project is fully permitted and slated for delivery in 2011.
"It's a very dense area that the immediate community will appreciate having. And because it's on the interstate at I-85 and North Druid Hills Road, it will have a regional draw," says Whiteside.
Barry of Colliers Spectrum Cauble agrees. His company is currently leasing a mixed-use project across from the Georgia Institute of Technology called Tenside, under development by Tivoli Properties.
The project consists of 336 apartments and 38,000 sq. ft. of retail. Georgia Tech is centrally located downtown, near the intersection of I-75 and I-85.
Colliers Spectrum Cauble currently has leases signed with Jersey Mike's, Smoothie King, CrossFit Atlanta, Five Guys Burgers & Fries, Nail Talk & Tan and Zen on Ten. They are also negotiating leases with Gezzo's Surf & Grill, a Southwestern burrito concept, a high-end hair salon and a pizza restaurant.
"This project has attracted significant interest from retailers as it will not only service Georgia Tech students and employees, but also the large daytime population and the dense residential population," says Morris Coleman, vice president of retail leasing for Colliers Spectrum Cauble.
Bend but don't break
Back at the Streets of Buckhead project, flexibility is the name of the game. In addition to delaying the project until 2010, Carter asked his general contractor, Balfour Beatty Construction, to reprice the job, which has resulted in $10 million in savings. That has required "a tremendous amount of estimating horsepower," says Jeff George, the project's manager.
Balfour, which conducted its first estimates on the project five years ago, is working to qualify the Streets of Buckhead as a silver LEED-certified project under the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design program. So far, Balfour has treated enough contaminated water to fill 21 Olympic swimming pools and excavated 450,000 tons of dirt.
Carter estimates he's paying a 5% premium to build a green project, but is confident that he's got the right man for the job. "He's done a great job for us time and time again," says Carter, referring to the project manager, George.
Indeed, Carter and George have been working together since the mid-1980s on such groundbreaking projects as the nearly 2 million sq. ft. Mall of Georgia, which opened in 1999.
"It's really been a task to quickly be able to update Ben [Carter] and his team with accurate pricing so that he can continue to measure and make decisions and make his deals," explains George.
"We've had to keep up with them, measuring all the 'what ifs'," he adds, "and trying to build a project that fits the need and the market."

This season I decided to jump into my old shoes and shoot the Botkier Spring 2012 campaign myself. It is extremely rewarding to take my vision full circle, from sketch to bag to advertising! I feel especially proud of the fact that the Botkier Spring 2012 campaign was voted top 10 fashion campaigns on NBC THREAD. Check out the link and check out the behind the scenes photos. ENJOY! xoxo Monica
Above we have a newbie the LEON, all bright and beautiful in bright green against an amazing H&M jacket. Check out the shorts with the zipper detail, amazing!
Above the new EDEN large satchel in lavender lizard on our model who was channeling the south of France on a yacht in our studio. Below we have the EDEN hobo in nude, love the purple flare pants.
One of the highly anticipated bags for us is Valentina continuing with our love of color we are exploring pastels. A HUGE trend for Spring 2012!
Color blocking continues to be a great way to pop details in our bags. Here we have a PHOENIX clutch with leather covered frame. Soft and slouchy day clutch that can be worn anywhere…
One of my favorite shots of the Misha clutch in cobble snake with pastel trim. The model was doing a great job lounging on her faux boat while I did my best not to fall on her while balancing on a ladder high above…
Angie Parker our amazing makeup artist rocking it in her denim jumpsuit. So talented and so damn funny!
Our amazing stylist Daisha and her racks and racks of clothes and jewelry. We tried to throw in some Botkier shoes but in the end decided that barefoot was the way to go for our imaginary spring fling. BTW never under estimate the importance of a steamer, everyone should have one in their closet. Beats an iron any day.
…to finished and retouched photo!
Sometimes it takes more than one outfit change to nail a shot. The shirt below did not make it to the final.
Literally behind my shoulder. That camera is so heavy. I know it sounds old school but I miss film. The instant gratification of digital misses something for me in the process.
More acrobatics to get the shot. The angle has to be just right!!

Is it a bad power supply?
Or does the cap need more time to charge before booting?

Only other thing i can think of is the capacitor charge dissipating while the power was out. Or the power supply coincidentally went bad at the same time.

Port of Hood River intern Alison Danko will leave her mark on an economic impact study happening here in Hood River.
Danko, a 2011 Hood River Valley High School graduate, became an intern at the Port after requesting an internship for the summer. Port Executive Director Michael McElwee gave her the project he had been setting up, the ECONorthwest Economic Impact Study.
Danko's summer internship is being funded by the Whitman Internship Grant Danko received from her school, Whitman College, in Walla Walla, Wash.
To receive the grant, Danko had to first find and commit to the internship then go through a lengthy application process, detailing how the internship related to her career goals and her studies. She was accepted, but Danko still has to send updates during the summer to receive the grant.
The grant money is paid to Danko like a paycheck, which she can use for whatever she wishes. Whitman College uses the grant to encourage their students to intern.
Danko happened to ask for an internship at the Port when the ECONorthwest study was just beginning.
"We're trying to find the port's direct contribution to the area," said Danko about the study.
ECONorthwest is a consulting firm that specializes in economics. The Port has worked with it before and decided to hire the company to conduct the study.
Danko started her internship in late May and will leave in early August to begin her study abroad in Copenhagen, Denmark.
"I will be sent a copy," she said, "so I can read it."
The study will include information Danko has gathered through interviews and reviews of past studies. She has also drawn maps for the study and written reports. On July 16 Danko presented an update on the progress of the study to the port commissioners.
"It's just been giving me really good experience," she said.
Recently, she and ECONorthwest Project Director Terry Moore interviewed 10 business owners/managers whose businesses were situated on Port property.
"In our interviews, we were essentially looking to gather useful, quantitative data," she said.
To do this, Danko and Moore asked open-ended questions.
"We asked about their business; how the port helped them," she said. "Everyone really went with that."
At Whitman College Danko plans to major in economic environmental studies, an interdisciplinary major. Her interest in environmentally related work has been with her for a long time but not her interest in economics.
"My interest in economics has been a lot more recent," she said. "I hadn't had a lot of exposure to economics before taking classes at Whitman.
"It makes sense to me. It's fun to see the real-life applications of what you're learning in class because it is really applicable," she added.
Danko has seen the real-life applications first-hand at her internship.
"This internship has solidified my liking of economics," she said.
She still doesn't know what she will do for a career, but she is planning to make it something involving the skill she's gathered at school and at the internship.
The study will help the Port update its strategic plan and help it better understand how it is affecting the Hood River economy, as well as provide ideas for the future.
"This is such an applicable experience," said Danko about the internship. "I can apply so much of what I've learned in class."
Moore, who has taught economics in the past, has also furthered Danko's education in economics, giving her tips where they are needed
The state is also doing a study on all 23 Oregon ports. The ECONorthwest study will be used by the state to further its study. The state study is more general than the Port's study.
Danko's first journey into an economics-related internship seems to have proven successful.
"Everyone is so nice and has helped me so much," said Danko. "I worked with all the Port staff. Everybody combined has a great amount of knowledge."
Danko is the daughter of Joan Laurance and Bob Danko, who live in Parkdale.

On the approach of the high .holidays I feel within me a special-sense of grati¬ tude for the blessed privilege of having been associated with you and thousands of other fine men aiid women throtighout the land, in one of the greatest human¬ itarian enterprises in the history of Jewish life. To thank God, for his goodness to us is usual at this time of the; year. But a special prayer of thankfulness can. be added because God in his wid6m has seen to it that during a time of great trial for our people in other parts of the world there was in America a Jewry so cir¬ cumstanced that they were able to avert the greatest catastrophe that ever con¬ fronted our people. In wishing you a happy and prosper¬ ous New Year, for you and your loved ones, I do so not only in my hidividual capacity but in the names of those count¬ less thousands with whom I am in con¬ stant touch and whose blessings, I know, are. /eing poured out to the Jews of AinE^ica for having stood by during their day foi trial.

Percy Heath
This double reissue combines saxophonist Frank Foster's first U.S. recording and a session led by pianist George Wallington that took place one week later with Foster sitting in. Recorded for Blue Note in Hackensack, NJ, on May 5, 1954, Here Comes Frank Foster (also issued as New Faces, New Sounds) was only Foster's second album as a leader. His debut album was recorded one month earlier for the Vogue label in Paris, France. Here Comes Frank Foster fits neatly with other albums from the mid-'50s Blue Note catalog. Foster shares the spotlight with trombonist Benny Powell, and the rhythm section of Gildo Mahones, Percy Heath, and Kenny Clarke is superb. On tracks eight through 17, Foster is heard as a member of the George Wallington Showcase band, recorded for Blue Note on May 12, 1954. This solid little organization included James Moody's ace trumpeter Dave Burns, trombonist Jimmy Cleveland, baritone saxophonist Danny Bank, bassist Oscar Pettiford, and, once again, drummer Kenny "Klook" Clarke. Arrangements were scored by Quincy Jones. This straight-ahead hard bop is tasty and stimulating. Use the four alternate takes for a chaser. ~ arwulf arwulf

Most of the fights seems to be over in a couple of seconds just like the ending battle between Zedd and noa.

Don't know why so many people were bothered with the ending, or expecting an OVA.
All important questions have been answered. Really the only strange part was Noa in a wheelchair, but I have a feeling Tasker's influence on him had long term negative effects.
Zed merging with AG was cool. Gives him the strength he needs, and the freedom of the wind.
Was very satisfied with this ending. I'd rate the series a 7.5-8. Started off not liking Zed at all. Took about 20 episodes to really warm-up to him, but he turned out okay.

While it might be a bit soon, AnimeSuki has marked this series as licensed, based on the fact that Kiba appears on the video schedule of Anime Boston 2007. If this news proves to be incorrect, we'll correct the error.

its listed as subbed, not dubbed though, and i cant find anything saying its licensed. That said, this is one series i'd gladdly hand of my hard earnd cash to own. But only when they release the complete boxset, hate buying stupid individual DVD's with a few eps on them. Gotta love the perfect editions, all 26 eps on 3 DVD's for £19
Maaaan i so wish i could go to that event, looks awsome, kindsa makes me want to emigrate to america. You guys get all the good anime events. We brits are lucky if we get one or two a decade >.<

It seems that multiple companies might be involved in this license

As no confirmed TV or DVD deal has been announced at or after Anime Boston 2007, AnimeSuki will consider UpperDeck as a "master licensor" and not a "licensee". Or in other words: we'll consider Kiba unlicensed until a TV deal or DVD release is confirmed.
UpperDeck is a company that owns no TV channel nor does any DVD distribution (well, as far as I know at least), so a license by them does not really mean much for anime fans.
Note that this does mean it's very likely Kiba will get a TV deal soon and will be licensed soon. On the other hand, if no TV station wants it, it's likely UpperDeck will get rid of the license again.
And I again apologize for any confusion, though the licensing did turn out to be sort of "half true"

wow, i just discovered this anime, and i have marathoned thru eps 13.this once again proves the theory that u should never judge a book by its cover. damn, it is good. more importantly i love the fact idealistic characters gets their asses handed to them by life, and that the creators have the balls to kill of major characters. i dont know why but i am reminded of a song of ice and fire novels. im so happy i discovered this anime. it would be a 9 out of 10, if there was more blood to go with the violence.

finally watched the whole show in two days my eyes hurt. but i think it was a great show with a well thought out plot i didnt find it boring once which is rare for me. but i think all questions have been answered they explained earlier that Noa was getting better because of the spirit which he no longer has hence the regression of his body. and zed now has the power he seeks and the freedom he was longing for the only question i have is who was giving elmeida orders and sitting on the jimoto throne in the end of episode 51.

For anyone interested... The VA of Zed is also the VA for Sumimura in Kekkaishi. He also does VA for one character from Skull Man. Anyways, just wanted to point out for people who like his Zed character. He seems to like those type of characters.

Just finished the series...I'd give it a 7.5 overall. The high point for me was the OST. While there were only 6-7 main tracks, all of them were superb. Definitely the story went several notches above the average shonen show, but the action scenes weren't quite up to par. Also, I felt that a couple of the arcs between eps 10 and 30 felt a bit drawn out. In the end, though, the characters were quite likeable and the story had a good number of twists- even if it did seem to telegraph them several eps in advance. Worth watching.

Noa was only able to walk freely because he had a shard, it allowed him the strength to walk freely. However after he lost that, all the stress of everything he'd been through came all at once, which put him back where he started. In time he'd probably recover. As for Zed abandoning him, he didnt really. When he attacked Amil Gaul it teleported him away. He didnt have much coice from what i saw lol.
Also the city at the end wasnt Calm, it was a new one, and yeah, the combined AG and Zed looked awsome.
I don't see the need for a second season or an OVA, everything was closed, including the love angles, which were never key to the series anyway.
Muy only gripe with the ending was Tasker going down so easy. The last boss fight should of been a lot harder, but meh, it was still good

Guess what? You can watch the first episode of Kiba at Toonami Jetstream!
The first episode is virtually uncut with the Japanese OP and ED sequences kept in tact. And not to mention ADV's dub is pretty solid stuff.

I just finished watching Kiba and I must say I liked it too ^^
It had a nice story in a different environment from what I'm used to today in the newest anime. Also it had a reasonable amount of episodes, not too much or too few to wrap up things. The only thing I didn't really like is the ending. They could've reunited Noah & Zed in Templar or even Calm and not drop him out in a distant x world who knows where.

Slate has an article about the world's oldest (found so far) porn, a bunch of paintings and carvings found in China that are more than 3000 years old. Despite his advanced age, there appears to be no truth to the rumors that Hugh Hefner is responsible for them.
The cast of 100 figures presents what is obviously a fertility ritual (or several). They range in size from more than nine feet tall to just a few inches. All perform the same ceremonial pose, holding their arms out and bent at the elbows. The right hand points up and the left hand points down, possibly to indicate earth and sky.
The few scholars who have studied the petroglyphs think that the larger-than-life hourglass figures that begin the tableau symbolize females. They have stylized triangular torsos, shapely hips and legs, and they wear conical headdresses with wispy decorations. Male images are smaller triangles with stick legs and bare heads. Ithyphallic is archeology-talk for "erect penis," and nearly all of the males have one. A third set of figures appear to be bisexual. Combining elements of males and females, they are ithyphallic but wear female headwear, a decoration on the chest, and sometimes a mask. They might be shamans.
The tableau is divided into four fully-developed scenes beginning at a height of 30 feet and progressing downward. In the first scene, nine huge women and two much smaller men dance in a circle, seemingly admonishing their viewers. This is the only scene without ithyphallic men—though to the side, a prone bisexual has an obvious erection. Two symbols near the center look like stallions fighting head to head.The second scene is packed with weird happenings. Women and men dance in a frenzy around a large ithyphallic bisexual about to penetrate a small hourglass female with an explicit vulva. His breastplate depicts a female head, with a conical headdress just like his. On the left, a second bisexual in a monkey mask is about to penetrate a small, faceless female. Nearby, a pair of striped animals lies prone amid bows and arrows, while at the other end, a giant two-headed female seems to lead the ritual. Disembodied heads abound, perhaps indicating spectators.
The next scene is smaller and cruder. A chorus line of infants emerges from a small female being penetrated simultaneously by a male and a bisexual while three more ithyphallic males await their turn. Another figure holds a penis longer than he is tall, pointing it at the sole large woman in the scene. She stands in front of a platform on which a faceless body lies prone, wearing what looks like the striped animals' fur. The body resembles the females copulating in this and the previous scene. It is the only figure shown with its arms lowered, probably indicating death in a ritual sacrifice. A small dog is also at the center.
This raises so many important questions. Were there smaller, more portable versions that teenage boys could take into the bathroom with them? Were musical instruments found nearby that could mimic the sound of a wah wah pedal? Did any of the figures resemble Ron Jeremy? Did the shamans tell everyone that they'd go to hell if they looked at the pictures? Were there men telling their wives that they only look at the wall for the articles? And where did one put in the quarter?

Gingered ginger biscuits with ginger
I don't know what drew me to ginger biscuits - I think perhaps it was the success of the gingery choc chip cookies a few weeks ago. I have discovered that crisp biscuits survive their journey to Oxford by bike and train much better than soft ones (which manage to weld together no matter how carefully I pack them). Cupcakes and muffins are a no no because they take up too much space to carry, and anything decorated will arrive looking less than edifying. So crunchy ginger biscuits it was. I found an interesting-looking recipe on Book the Cook's blog - interesting because it included ground ginger, stem ginger, AND the syrup from a stem ginger jar. It also contains oats and golden syrup which make all biscuits immediately more enticing (to me anyway!). Not content with the triple ginger presence, I also grated some crystallised ginger on to the top for a bit more tang and sparkle. You see Sugar High Friday this month has 'All that glitters' as its theme, and I thought I would give a little crystallised glitter to my biscuits.
I can't say that the biscuits sparkled my students to new levels of insight and interaction but I think they did appreciate them. I said that it was their chance to mark my efforts instead of the other way round but they didn't take as much advantage of the opportunity as I thought they might. They were probably all too sleepy/hungover/insert other student stereotype here.
Gingered ginger biscuits with ginger (based on Book the Cook)
Makes approximately 20
125g self-raising flour
2 tsps ground ginger
4 chunks of crystallised ginger, finely diced [the original uses 4 stem gingers]
3 tbsp syrup from a jar of stem ginger
50g oats [I used half oats and half millet flakes]
50g dark muscovado sugar
75g butter or margarine
More crystallised ginger for grating
1 - Preheat the oven to Gas 5, 190 degrees C.
2 - In a large bowl, sift in the flour and ground ginger. Mix in the oats, sugar and crystallised gingers, then add the butter and rub until it resembles large breadcrumbs. If it is a little dry, add more butter.
3 - Finally, add the syrup and combine thoroughly. You should be left with a semi-soft dough.
4 - Roll out onto a floured surface about 1cm thick, and cut out your shapes. Place onto a buttered baking sheet and grate some more crystallised ginger over the top. Place onto a high shelf. Bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown. Leave to cool on a wire rack. Apply to students and wait for insightful participation.

I adore ginger biscuits, and these sound sooo good! I do a similar thing called "Twice Spiced Ginger Biscuits," but I think I like your title much better ;)

I think you deserved a gold star for this effort - and I like your criteria of why biscuits are so preferable to transport - I have found the same thing with taking food to other people's places

Aww, thanks, Johanna! Maybe it will have an effect on my end-of-semester evaluations?? I've learnt the hard way about not transporting iced cupcakes!
Ricki - I'd recommend them, and they're sturdy enough for dunking in tea as well!

Why We Filed An Amicus Brief In Garcia v. Google: Blaming 3rd Parties Has Serious Impact On Free Speech
from the not-just-about-copyright dept
After some consideration, we teamed up with the Organization for Transformative Works to file our own brief concerning "intermediary liability." While the 9th Circuit noted it would accept briefs from all interested parties, it also said those briefs had to be shorter than 2,500 words, which is not a lot of space to make complex legal arguments. We fully expected many others to focus in on all of the (many, many) troubling copyright aspects in Kozinski's ruling, but wanted to raise a separate (and, in some ways, larger) issue that was almost entirely ignored by the ruling: that third parties should not be blamed for the actions of their users -- and that Judge Kozinski's broad injunction did just that.
Lawyer Cathy Gellis wrote up an amicus brief on our behalf, highlighting Congress's clear intent in both Sections 230 of the CDA and 512 of the DMCA in providing safe harbors from liability for third parties, in order to encourage them to support free and open dialogue and discourse online, without fear of legal repercussions. As our brief argues, while many have ignored Section 230 (which excludes intellectual property), it should be quite clear that Garcia's case was really nothing more than an attempt to misuse copyright law in order to get around Section 230 and to hold a third party liable. Furthermore, as we've noted in the past, Judge Kozinski's injunction appears to go well beyond what the law says is appropriate in responding to copyright claims.
There is a reason why Congress was so intent on providing safe harbors, recognizing the incentives for broad censorship when you blame service providers for the actions of their users. Judge Kozinski appears to have ignored nearly all of Congress' intent in his ruling, and we're hopeful that (among the many other reasons why his ruling should be reviewed), the rest of the 9th Circuit will recognize that the original ruling has serious First Amendment implications, beyond just the basic copyright questions.

Employees receive a 10% discount on most items at the College store. Employees may set up a college store charge.
Purpose: The employee charge benefit is intended to provide employees with the convenience of shopping for goods and services on the Gettysburg College campus and to provide employees with a variety of opportunities to repay their debts.
Requirements: To qualify for an employee charge account an employee must:
- Be a full-time Gettysburg College employee, regular part-time Gettysburg College employee or a Gettysburg College graduate assistant
- Have successfully completed an orientation period
- Be at least 18 years of age
Employees who meet these requirements are eligible to apply for Gettysburg College Bookstore charge privileges at the Gettysburg College Bookstore in the College Union Building.
Opening a Gettysburg College Bookstore Charge Account: To open a charge account with the Gettysburg College Bookstore, employees must clear all current employee charge account balances, complete the enclosed Financial Responsibility Statement, and return it to the Gettysburg College Bookstore. This signed document will then be forwarded to the Human Resources Office for placement in the personnel file.
Charge Limit: $250.00 per qualified employee.
Activity Statements and Payment Schedules: At the beginning of each month, an activity statement will be mailed through campus mail to all employees with outstanding balances. Statements will indicate previous balances, the previous month's payment, and charges for the current month. Statements will not be generated for accounts with zero balances or credits.
Charge accounts should be paid in full on a monthly basis by the end of each month.
If charge accounts show no payment activity for two (2) consecutive months, employee charge privileges will be withdrawn until the bill has been paid in full. Employees have four payment options to clear their accounts:
- Pay the bill in full by cash at the Gettysburg College Bookstore
- Pay the bill in full by charging the full amount owed to another charge account (VISA, MasterCard, and Discover) at the Gettysburg College Bookstore
- Pay by personal check
- Pay the bill through the payroll deduction/payment plan program
If option 4 is chosen, a minimum of $20 per pay period will be deducted from each pay check until the account is paid in full.
Resignations or Terminations: If employment with the College is ended for any reason, the unpaid account balance is due on or before the date of termination. If the account balance is not paid in full at the time of termination, the entire account balance (except for making sure the employee is paid minimum wage for the last hours worked) will be deducted from the employee's final paycheck. If this deduction does not bring the account balance to zero, the College will develop a payment plan for the employee. If possible, this payment plan will be reviewed with the terminating employee during the exit interview in the Human Resources Office.
It is the responsibility of employees to pay their charge balances.
It is the responsibility of the Gettysburg College Bookstore to offer the charge benefit to all qualified employees and to ensure current charge balances.
If employees do not follow through with payment responsibilities, the Human Resources Office will ensure the collection of debt either through payroll deductions (for active employees) or payment plans (for terminated employees).Terminating Employees:
Special Considerations: This is a benefit that can be revoked by the College. If accounts remain in good standing, the charge benefit will remain available. The College reserves the right to forward any outstanding uncorrectable account balances to an authorized collection agency.

Top coach George O'Leary has urged the NFL to follow college football's lead and play a major game in Dublin.
O'Leary made the remarks at the announcement that his University of Central Florida side will play Penn State in the Irish capital next year.
The game is expected to sell-out at the GAA headquarters Croke Park in August of 2014 and will bring in over $100million to the Irish economy.
UCF coach O'Leary and Penn State Director of Athletics Dave Joyner both welcomed the opportunity to play at Croke Park when they attended Sunday's launch.
They were guests of honor as Dublin defeated Meath in the Leinster senior football final.
Irish-American O'Leary said: "We know the Notre Dame game against Navy here last year was a huge success and this fixture will be just as big.
"It is a huge opportunity for us to bring college football to an Irish audience and huge numbers of our fans will travel from America as well.
"With parents from Cork and Down backgrounds I am well aware of my own Irish roots and many of our players and fans have similar stories to tell.
"It is a homecoming of sorts for many of us and that only adds to the attraction.
"I also think it is something the NFL could look at. They already play games in London and a game in Dublin is a viable proposal for them to consider.
"I would like to think we can act as trailblazers for the college game next year and the NFL might well follow suit."
Joyner attended the Dublin launch on behalf of Penn who are expected to bring as many as 30,000 fans to Ireland next year.
He said: "Watching the Dublin-Meath game on Sunday has only increased our desire to play in Croke Park.
"It is a very special stadium in a very special city and we are really looking forward to our visit."
More information on the game is available at www.crokeparkclassic.ie.

It seemed unlikely when he trailed 8-0. Indeed, it seemed unlikely full stop: Davis was the unstoppable machine and undisputed no.1; Taylor was the funny Irish guy with the big glasses and surely no threat to snooker's top dog.
It was a victory for one of snooker's most dogged competitors and the career Dennis has made for himself since is almost the template for any player wishing to exploit every last drop of their success.
He is a BBC commentator, a very entertaining after dinner speaker and much in demand as a snooker celebrity.
Dennis was never one to rest on his laurels. He realised early on that there was far more to being a snooker professional than merely turning up and playing.
He was born on January 19, 1949 in Coalisland, Northern Ireland and moved to Lancashire in England in the 1960s to pursue his snooker career, working in a paper mill to support himself.
The early years on the professional circuit were tough to say the least. There was little money in the game so players took on whatever exhibition work they could get.
In this, Taylor was a natural: his engaging wit and ability to entertain made him a great favourite in holiday camps and snooker clubs around the UK and beyond.
He reached the 1979 world final but lost to Terry Griffiths. There was an edge missing from his game and he came to realise it was related to his eyesight.
It was Jack Karnehm, the BBC commentator, who fashioned the 'upside down' glasses that at first made Taylor a figure of fun but which ultimately helped him to become world champion.
The 1984/85 season began in devastating fashion when Taylor's mother died. He immediately withdrew from the International in Newcastle and was not going to play in the next event, the Grand Prix at Reading, but was talked round by his family.
He ended up beating Cliff Thorburn 10-2 to win his first ranking title and thus received a huge injection of confidence.
This came to the fore at the Crucible several months later and his inner steel helped Dennis pull off the most famous victory in snooker history.
Of course, much is talked about the black ball finish but his preceding pots on brown, blue and pink were all, in the circumstances, remarkable.
A peak viewing audience of 18.5m were watching when he sank the black. Some years later I interviewed him and he told me that not a day went by without somebody mentioning it.
It took me a while to realise that that somebody was Dennis himself.
But you can hardly blame him. It would all have been so different had Davis potted the black.
As it was, Dennis was catapulted into the limelight and became a great favourite on chat shows, game shows, for endorsements, exhibitions, personal appearances and anything else going.
And he has never been anything less than professional in undertaking all these engagements.
A well known player asked me recently how to get into TV commentary. The advice I gave him was not to wait until his playing career was on the decline before getting involved.
Dennis was commentating for ITV before he became world champion. Indeed, he was lead commentator for them on the conclusion of the 1985 British Open a few weeks before his own greatest moment.
And his playing career went far beyond the 1985 World Championship. In 1987, he won six titles, including the Wembley Masters with a 9-8 defeat of Alex Higgins from 8-5 down.
He spent 18 successive years in the top 16 and was part of the Ireland team that won three World Cups.
It was in this tournament in 1990 that he and Higgins fell out in a big way after the fiery twice world champion questioned Taylor's captaincy tactics. It ended in a row in which Higgins threatened to have Taylor shot.
By chance, they were drawn to play each other a few weeks later at the Irish Masters at Goffs. It was a bear-pit atmosphere for what Davis dubbed 'the biggest grudge match of all time.' Taylor won 5-2. He would never have forgiven himself had he lost.
Dennis was known for banter and having a laugh in the arena but the truth is he was one of snooker's hardest competitors who hated losing.
He hated it every bit as much when he played his last match as a professional in the qualifiers for the 2000 World Championship. Dennis came from 8-4 down to level at 8-8 with Sean Lanigan but was beaten 10-8. He was absolutely gutted afterwards that his career had come to an end at the Newport Centre and not, as he had hoped, at the Crucible Theatre.
It's a shame there's not some sort of seniors circuit where Taylor and his old rivals could lock cues once again.
But even though he no longer plays, Dennis remains one of snooker's biggest stars.
Why? Because he has worked hard to make a living not just from the game but through being a personality recognisable to those who do not necessarily follow the game.
He's been good for snooker and, in turn, snooker has been good to him.

Maybe it's because his type of commentary (always a nice word about everyone with little journalistic criticism) is the benchmark used by BBC Sport for all TV commentary from now on. Bland and totally non critical. So there's no room for the likes of Clive Everton.

As Dennis says, never a day goes past without 1985 being mentioned - usually because he mentions it!

Absolutely abysmal commentator. Why oh why didn't Davis pot that black and save us from 20 years of his appaling ramblings?

When Sean Lanigan ended his professional career he was an extremely bad loser and he used to be an all-round unpleasant person in general. I was there and saw it.
