I think it would be more informative with the monologues, but it would really break up the flow and steal time from other things that need to be shown, so I can sympathize with the reasoning behind dropping them.

I guess I will have to wait for the next arc in order to understand Rena's full thought process which lead her to take the actions she did then.
I've been trying to find in the episodes some small tips here and there on Rena for a while now regarding this, special since everything about her is still pretty vague..; and I also haven't been able to make any solid judgments or speculations on why and how her actions are driven because of it, unlike those I was able to pull through regarding Shion & Mion
Hopefully the last arc will answer most of this

It is very possible that Shion first "atended" to "taking care" of Sakoto as soon as this one arrived to the House.., and probably had just kept Rika a prisioner meantime.
We now know that it was Shion dressed as Mion when she went along with Keiichi and Rena to Rika's & Satoko's house in search for them; we know this because.., during the moment where Keiichi climbs up the ladder and starts to mencione Satoko, Shion(passing off as Mion) goes compleatly berserk about Satoko beeing a burder on Satoshi and how she was the reason his life was compleatly ruined.
Probably after this scene when she then returned home she found Rika about to stab herself as we saw in the begining of Watanagashi-hen.
Still what are the real reasons for this I am not sure.., as in.. what realy drove Rika to do that..
It might simply be that she did not wish to have the same fate as Satoko did, or that she'd rather take her own life then to leave it in the hands of what would happen to her as we saw in Tatarigoroshi-hen.
Either way.. Rika will die just as she predicted she would, that so far is the only sure thing I know regarding her
oh.. and Keriaku, all of this happened previously so.., I belive there is no need for the spoiler tags .

knowing that shion is a psyco...i can believe that the person standing in front of rika while she was stabbing herself was indeed shion...but why would satoko show up even if rika was lured to mion's house?

Just kidding , Rika went to the Sonozaki House to deliver a huge jar of Soy Sauce she had in her house; later then Shion(passing as Mion) probably was the one to phone Satoko at her house and say that Rika had dropped by and was having dinner here, thus asking Satoko to drop by and join them.
Which was the reason why Satoko left 2 meals in the fridge.., something that she had done for when Rika returned.., but since Rika was "having dinner" in the Sonozaki House and Satoko herself was then asked to join her..., she naturaly went along and saved the food for later.
Remember.., Satoko doesn't know she had met Shion ever before, she only knows Mion.., and the real Mion doesn't have "that grudge" against her as Shion does..; Thus naturaly to Satoko.., Mion is her friend, so she had no reasons to be afraid on not to come join them for dinner..; specialy if Rika was there aswell.
Its all in episodes 7 & the begining of 8, you can't miss it

Excellent episode for the new chapter plus the creepy opening scene with Shion carrying a tazer and dragging Mion by the hair was cool it looked like the head of Sonozaki family was unconcious in the corner as well. Seeing this side of Shion was a change in the previous chapters it was all Mion. I did not expect some of the things that happen here for one

Satoko had Always been dependant on Satoshi as we could see.., at the mere minor incident she would cry out for her Nii-nii in an instant.., so in a way Shion's prespective regarding Satoko "taking the life away" from Satoshi was somewhat true..; altough this is also due to Satoko's aunt's constant abuse, which Satoshi always toke to protect Satoko.
In the end.., after Satoshi "transfered", and Satoko's aunt was murdered, she ended up beeing all alone, this despite living with Rika..., I ment "alone" as in she lost all of the people she loved in her family (father, mother & brother), which naturaly this stripped her of anyone she could depend on; or as in the way she did anyway.
Its true that Satoko must have gathered a tremendous huge amount of mental strenght to live out each day after Satoshi went away.., and adding to what happened to her parents and how they where so punished for they're choice.., Satoko realy must have struggled each day just to see it come to and end and await the next.
All of this made her the Satoko we saw in the present time, cooking for Keiichi and all.., she had no longer become dependant on anyone nor was she crying all the time for such small things as she did.
And all of this happened in the time-spam of 1 year so.., it definitly was a tremendous change in caracter for her.
Never the less.., what drives her on.., and this we got to see while witnessing Keiichi's and doctor Irei's conversation in Tatarigoroshi-hen... Its Satoshi.
Satoko now herself feels that she realy was a burden to her Nii-nii, that she depended too much on him.., and in her own mind, that was why Satoshi left her all lone and went away.
So.., in order for Satoshi to return, she feels that she must gather strenght and endure all the tests she can as to prove herself that she is no longer so much dependable on those she loved.
And she belives this so blindly that like we saw in Tatarigoroshi-hen.., she would refuse and would not admit the abuse that her Uncle was submiting her too.., for doing that would mean she lost and Satoshi would not return to her.
So, given all of this probably that "incident" between her and Shion(passing as Mion) is probably so irrelevant that she by chances forgot about it.., or in fact.., after Satoshi's dissapearence.., she viewed Shion's words as in the reasons why he realy left; which would explain why she then blamed herself so much.
All and all we also saw Mion talking over the phone to Shion after that incident.., and in which Mion said something like "it will be allright"..; thus probably Mion herself then found some excuse or apologised to Satoko for what had happened and they became "more" friends after that.
Which then adding all that happened to Satoko.., its natural that she ended up good friends with Mion as we saw.., for she had been through so much, that surely Mion had conforted her many times.
Mion is in fact a good person at heart.
But all and all I stress that the main reason why Satoko went to the Sonozaki House that day was because Rika was there aswell, and as she was told.., was having dinner there and would like her to join them.
Not taking away the fact that Satoko and Mion where indeed good friends now.., if Rika had not been there Satoko would probably not have gone over that night.
This is just my point of view on this.., like I said.., someone who has played the game can probably answer you better

hmmm... concerning the Hojou family...
1) the reason why Satoko cried: b/c she spill her lunchbox which is an offense that her Aunt or Uncle would literally beat her for.
2) Satoko is pretty broken mentally right now. Small things will trigger her outburst of crying.
3) Possibly Satoko forgot about this incident. Most likely all the things Shion did in this EP is NOTHING compared to what Satoko has to go through EVERYDAY at her house, physically or mentally. I mean think about it. A girl hitting her and throwing text books at her or Teppei using her as a punching bag outlet for frustration (+ we know everyone in Hinamizawa is an Olympian ) while her Aunt yells at her constantly all the way past midnight every night (See TIPs). Shion's little outburst probably wasn't all that much compared to Satoko has been experiencing everyday for the past year, but yea, that chair was a bit too far...
Now see Satoshi's position in all this. He has to put up with this everyday shielding Satoko...
Actually, I wonder what Mion said to everyone else to cover herself up. She did a pretty good job of it looking at everyone else's reaction after this.

This show is messing with my head:
I think this story arc literally freaked me out a bit:
Maybe I need to watch some happy good time anime?
Thanks for explaining why Satoko went all waterfalling after her lunch
You think that Shion would have been a little smarter though, if she
really wanted to get on Satoshi's good side she could have helped
Satoko out but she was a little too selfish/jealous to do that.

Shion herself is in a tight position.
She can't "exist" in the Hinamizawa area. For her to go out, she must assume Mion's identity, but to pull it off effectively Mion can't be wandering off outside the at same time. So they call each other. Whenever Mion is free she'll go over to Shion's house and Shion can become Mion working outside. Without Mion's cooperation Shion can't step outside of her apartment building. One screw up and she'll have the Sonozaki Yakuza members dragging her in-front of Sonozaki Oryou. And Oryou is scary. I mean really scary. I mean REALLY scary.
Satoshi-kun's kindness moved her. She meets him randomly every so often outside, but she can't tell him who she is. Eventually Shion learns every Sunday he goes to baseball practice down in Okinomiya. She couldn't hold back her desire to be with him and goes to the practices w/o telling Mion (although Mion catches on pretty quickly to cover for her).
Many people blame Shion for not helping Satoko, but Shion isn't in the position to help her. Shion avoids going to Hinamizawa at all costs (so she really took a chance going to the school in this arc). Heck, she can barely even meet with Satoshi when she wants to. When she does meet with him, she tries her best to to ease him, but that's all that she can do... I'm sure that frustration was building on her. Not being able to help or ease the one you love and thing you can do is see him slowly degenerate.
When she finally meets with him again at the school (again this is after weeks of separation) his attitude towards her crushed her. I think in Shion's mind she knows she can't do much for Satoshi, but Satoko who's always around him can, but instead Satoko is causing him more pain. That's why Shion just burst out on Satoko. If only Satoko will "man up" at bit, take care of herself, and not push all her troubles on Satoshi, then Shion can do something for him. All Shion wants to do is love and care for Satoshi, but her feeling can't reach him b/c Satoko selfish pleas hurts Satoshi. Shion went to help Satoko clean up... and what happens? Satoko calls out for Ni-Ni over a trivial task that's already been taken care of... That attitude, that selfishness for wanting Ni-Ni to do every for her is what made Shion snap.
Again, I'll reiterate. Shion has only spends a limited time outside her apartment. When she does get the chance to go outside, Shion can't be "Shion" and must be "Mion." Shion has to spend most of this limited time she gets on making a living or purchasing food and other needs. If she is lucky she gets to see Satoshi (rare). Until she finds out about the baseball practice, which this joy was short-lived as Satoshi stops going to it. She spends weeks worrying sick about him and when she finally sees him, Satoshi gives her the F'you attitude. Shion was definitely wasn't thinking straight with her heart wrentched when she directed her anger at Satoko.

What I really want to know is why Shion stopped keeping a low profile by the time of the events in Watanagashi-hen. Although after rewatching bits of episode five and six the only people who clearly saw Mion and Shion together were K1, Ooishi, Takano and Tomitake and the latter three are not exactly what I would call your average Hinamizawa villagers. But if Shion kept the low profile why did she tell Keiichi about herself? Not wanting to repeat the mistake she did with Satoshi?

Personally I think Shion is just defending what she thinks is right. No one else really understands how badly off Satoko is at that point in time. I doubt Shion really has good interaction with other people (let alone small children) and her actions are pretty wll placed.

Los Angeles Kings eliminate rival Anaheim Ducks 6-2 in Game 7, advance to West finalsNHL.com @NHLdotcom
ANAHEIM, Calif. - Justin Williams, Jeff Carter and Mike Richards scored in an overwhelming first period, and the Los Angeles Kings advanced to their third straight Western Conference finals with a 6-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks in Game 7 of their second-round series Friday night.
Anze Kopitar, Marian Gaborik and Tanner Pearson also scored, and Jonathan Quick made 25 saves to help the Kings claim the first post-season Freeway Faceoff series in thrilling style, winning back-to-back elimination games over their top-seeded Southern California rivals.
The Kings improved to 6-0 when facing elimination this spring, shredding rookie goalie John Gibson for four goals in the first 23 minutes in Game 7.
The defeat likely ended the career of 43-year-old Teemu Selanne, who intends to retire.
The Kings advanced to a conference finals rematch with the defending champion Chicago Blackhawks.

Let the harvest begin
June gardening brings in the first payoffs from all those cold and rainy days spent outside during March and April sowing seeds and transplanting seedlings.
Leaf lettuce is perfect harvest size and should be enjoyed daily while the leaves are still firm and crisp. A red variety planted called Sugar Sleeve is extremely sweet and almost buttery in taste and in texture compared to other red types that can sometimes be rather dull.
The wet weather of last week has helped warm weather crops, but has really helped produce some of the nicest leafy spring crops in years.
Chinese cabbage is ready for picking and so are the arugula, broccoli rabe, radishes, kohlrabi, and again, thanks to the past cool weather, large tight heads of broccoli. The cauliflower and cabbage plants will be on the dinner table in a few short weeks, as will the pea harvest.
The tomato plants that were set into the ground in late April (under frost protection) have small tomatoes on them which will be ready for harvest before the end of the month. I always enjoy when I can pull off fresh garden tomatoes in the month of June.
While a newly planted bed of strawberries is rapidly sending out leaders, which will develop into full size plants, I couldn't resist allowing the plants to produce a few berries this first season.
The plants' energy is better spent on spreading and attaining size, but I'm at a loss for words to describe the sheer flavors of the special "taste" varieties I planted this year.
One of the nice things about a home strawberry patch is that you are able to plant varieties of strawberries that you won't find planted at local farms. These home-garden varieties produce berries that are extremely sweet and delicate, but this same tenderness renders them unsuitable for the rigors of commercial farms.
In between harvests, there is plenty of catch-up work to do. Eggplants in particular always seem to get off to a rough start. They are not fond of cool weather, and they are quickly attacked by the flea beetle soon after they are set into the ground.
To help them along at this critical stage, the plants are sprayed with Neem and are given a liquid feeding of 20-20-20 water-soluble solution. This regime will be kept up every 10 days until the plants begin to show some signs of real growth.
Celery is another crop that requires some special attention because it truly is not an easy crop to grow. First, celery is a heavy nitrogen feeder and if they don't get more than their "fair share" of it, celery will tend to host a variety of problems.
Interestingly, celery requires an unusual amount of a micronutrient called boron. Boron deficiency is most commonly found in soils that are light textured and low in organic matter; however, this is not always the case. When limestone is added to the garden soil to raise the pH, it negates the effect of boron. In the case of celery, young plants are slow to grow, leaf tips die back or are distorted and brown spots and cracks appear on the leafstalk crosswise to the ribs.
To prevent this from happening and to ensure that this necessary trace element is delivered, I spray the celery foliage thoroughly with boron-rich liquid kelp every two weeks. There are other ways to add boron to the soil, by using granite dust or rock phosphate, but an oversupply of boron can create additional growth problems, as well.
As the leafy green vegetables finally succumb to the heat, a plan is already in place for a succession crop of other leafy vegetables. Summer weather does not provide the ideal conditions for lettuce, Chinese cabbage, broccoli rabe, turnip greens and spinach, which all have a desire to bolt to seed during hot weather.
As any gardener already knows, however, making adjustments to weather conditions is half the battle to a successful garden. In this case, I want to try and simulate cooler spring conditions with less heat and sunlight to prevent these crops from making seed.
To start, I'll till the bed under and replenish the soil with some 5-10-5 granular fertilizer. After the fertilizer has been mixed in and the soil raked level, I'll transplant the lettuce and other leafy vegetable seedlings that have been pampered along in the coldframe over the last few weeks. After a drink of transplant solution, metal wires shaped into half circles are inserted into the soil spaced every three feet.
Here comes the real secret weapon -- with the metal loops secured, woven polyethylene shade netting is draped over the entire bed. This unique material allows plenty of air circulation and water to pass through while it reduces the interior temperature by about 15 degrees. The indirect sunlight that filters through the fabric is enough to support the plants' growth, but not enough to trigger bolting.
Occasionally, a plant will not respond to this kind of care, but by and large, with the shade fabric in place, traditional spring crops can be harvested right through the summer months.
Fall crop needs time to grow
Although summer is still officially two weeks away, I'm already thinking about the fall and how nicely those crisp October days produce the finest cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli of the season.
In anticipation of this harvest I need to have sizable plants ready to set into the ground by midsummer, so seeds need to be started now. I make use of the coldframe once again, this time for seed starting in pots. With a six-inch pot filled with a soil-less planting medium, about two dozen seeds will be planted and covered with 1/4 inch of additional soil. The seeds are sown a bit deeper than normal to keep them moist, since the specially bronzed plastic-shielded coldframe can get rather warm this month.
Within two weeks the seedlings will be large enough to be moved into six-pack trays, where they will spend a good part of the summer waiting for an open spot in the garden.
Cucumbers best direct-sown
I'm always eager to bite into summer's first offering of cucumbers, so I rush the season along with an indoor planting of an early maturing bush variety. For the main-season crop, however, I wait until the second week of June to sow the seeds directly into the warm garden soil.
The cucumber bed soil is especially warm, since the early May soil preparation included a covering of plastic IRT (infrared transmitting) mulch film. This specially developed film super heats the soil and at the same time stops weeds from growing.
I'll make a six-inch wide slit into the material the length of the bed and plant two seeds every six inches. In no time at all the steamy soil will send the seeds soaring from the ground, where they'll soon find a six-foot A-frame metal trellis to grasp their tendrils around.
From the mailbag
Q: I have an incredibly large variety of blueberries (I've since lost the name), and I'd like to propagate to increase my plantings. What is the best way to go about this? S. Gudowitz, Easton
A: A simple way to propagate blueberry bushes and still harvest a crop from the mother plant is to mound layer a few of the new basal shoots. With new shoots only, mound soil over them so that only one inch of each shoot is above ground. Continue mounding the soil until it is six or eight inches high. In September, gently remove the soil from the shoots with a gentle spray of water, and you will discover an entirely new plant, roots and all, still attached to the mother plant. Cut this new plant off just below the root line and transplant it to its permanent location. By the second year, you should be harvesting those same large blueberries.

|Assassination One: Bailing Out For Good
This first assassination mission takes place outside of a police station on Franklin Street, which is located at the eastern edge of Alderney. When your contact gives you your instructions, the camera will pan to an area behind the fence lining the area where the payphone is located—you can grab a pistol and some armor from there if you need it before heading on your way. The GPS will automatically show you your route to the police station once in a vehicle, so you should have no worries about getting to your destination. There's simply nothing ambiguous about it.
When you approach the police station, you're going to have to make a quick choice. The roving red dot on your HUD represents your target, and since he's being escorted by some police officers, getting close to him is going to be hard (especially because he and his friends open fire on you when you approach, even if you don't fire first). We therefore recommend that you actually let him get in his car and then chase him and his goon friends as they travel around the nearby Alderney neighborhood. Doing so will draw a lot of fire your way, for sure, but they also won't move very quickly, making a drive-by shooting your best option. Once your target is slain, the assassination mission concludes successfully, even if his cohorts are still alive.

Hyundai and Kia, which admitted inflating gas mileage claims, now have a huge recall on their hands.
The Korean automakers announced the recall of more than 1.9 million vehicles in the United States for electrical and airbag problems. There are three separate recalls involving 13 models, many that share the same parts and components.
Hyundai Motor Co. recalled 1.06 million vehicles for electrical issues. Kia is recalling 623,000 more vehicles for the same issues.
The "condition could potentially result in intermittent operation of the push-button start feature, intermittent ability to remove the vehicle's shifter from the park position, illumination of the "ESC" [Electronic Stability Control] indicator lamp in the instrument cluster, intermittent interference with operation of the cruise control feature, or intermittent operation of the stop lamps," Hyundai said in a statement.
Hyundai models affected by the recall include the 2007-09 Accent, 2007-10 Elantra, 2010-11 Genesis Coupe, 2007-11 Santa Fe SUV, 2011 Sonata sedan, 2008-09 Tucson and 2008-09 Veracruz SUV.
Kia recalled the 2007-10 Rondo, 2007 Sedona, 2011 Optima, 2007-11 Sorento SUV, 2010-11 Soul and 2007-10 Sportage vehicles.
Hyundai separately announced the recall of some 190,000 2011-13 Elantra compacts for possible problems with their air bags.
In September, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration upgraded its investigation of the air bag issue.
Hyundai said during deployment of a side curtain airbag, a support bracket attached to the headliner could become displaced resulting in a risk of injury to a vehicle occupant during a side impact collision. One Elantra driver suffered a laceration to the left ear when a bracket dislodged when a side curtain airbag deployed.
Hyundai will install industrial-strength adhesive strips to headliners of some 2011-13 Elantras to secure the bracket to the headliner.
When Hyundai-Kia admitted its fuel economy results were overstated, they apologized and agreed to reimburse owners for their extra fuel costs.
In other recent recalls, Japanese automaker Subaru of America recalled more than 47,000 2010-13 Legacy and Outback vehicles, 2012-13 Impreza and 2013 Crosstrek vehicles because of an electrical problem that could cause their engines to start unexpectedly.
The vehicles all have automatic or CVT transmissions and remote starting systems. Subaru said if the key fob that operates the automatic starting system is dropped the fob may continue to transmit a start signal and the engine may run for up to 15 minutes or continue to start until the vehicle runs out of fuel.
Subaru, a unit of Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd., will replace the remote-starter fobs at no cost to the owners.
General Motors is recalling 144 2013 Buick Encore crossover SUVs with heated steering wheels that were not properly installed.
Buick says the steering wheel fasteners may have not been properly installed and the wheel could detach from the steering column. The Encore's were all assembled in South Korea Dec. 9-28.
"All 59 customers who have taken Encore deliveries have been contacted by telephone and their vehicles are being inspected," GM spokesman Alan Adler told The Detroit News. "The 85 unsold vehicles are being inspected at dealerships and none have been found to have the issue."
Electric cars
A red Nissan Leaf glided by me on a busy street. It was like sighting a rare bird in early spring.
Sales of the Leaf have been slow, but lately things are looking up for the bug-like all-electric subcompact. Nissan says the EV posted its best-single monthly sales in March -- 2,236 vehicles -- thanks at least in part to a reduction in the base price for the Tennessee-made Leaf to $28,800.
March was one of the few times Leaf sales topped those of GM's Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid, which totaled 1,478 vehicles. Volt sales were down 35.4 percent compared to March of last year, but were 8.4 percent higher for the first quarter of 2013 compared to the same three months of 2012. Chevy sold 4,244 Volts from January through March.
Nissan sold 3,539 Leafs in the first quarter and Toyota sold 2,353 Prius gas-electric hybrids, The Detroit News said.
In other electric car news, California's Tesla Motors Inc. announced it would no longer produce the short-range version of its Model S sedan with a 40 kW hour battery.
Tesla sold 4,700 of the higher-end Model S, with a 60 kW battery, through March, more than the Leaf, Volt and Prius. Dropping the Model S with the smallest battery means the least expensive Tesla sedan will cost about $62,400 after a $7,500 federal tax credit.
Only about 4 percent of Tesla customers chose the 40 kW battery, which could power the car for about 160 miles per charge. The larger battery gives the sedan a range of 230 miles on a single charge and an even larger and more expensive 85 kW battery boosts the range to as much as 300 miles per charge.
"Customers are voting with their wallet that they want a car that gives them the freedom to travel long distances when needed," Tesla said in a release.
In a bid to boost interest in its electric car, Tesla announced a 36-month buyback deal with US Bank and Wells Fargo that would allow motorists to essentially lease a mid-range Model S for around $500 a month by taking advantage of federal and state tax credits.
However, The Washington Post says Tesla makes some fuzzy assumptions in calculating what it calls the "true cost of ownership" and that the actual cost of leasing a Model S would run around $1,200 a month.
Separately, Revived Detroit Electric unveiled an all-electric, carbon fiber and aluminum sports car called the SP:01. The limited edition two-seat, rear-wheel drive vehicle has a top speed of 155 mph and a pricetag of $135,000.
Company founder and chief executive officer Albert Lam told The Detroit News the SP:01 doesn't have radio but has an app that allows the driver to use a smartphone open the doors, charge the car and link as an infotainment system.
U.S. light vehicle sales still hot
U.S. automakers had their best March in nearly six years, selling more than 1.45 million vehicles, about 5 percent more than last March.
General Motors Co. sold 245,000 vehicles and Ford sold 236,160, both up 6 percent over the same month last year. Sales of Ford F-Series pickups totaled 67,513 in March, 6 percent higher than March a year earlier.
Chrysler Group sold 171,606 vehicles, a 5 percent increase from last March. Ram truck sales jumped 25 percent.
"Chrysler Group has now achieved year-over-year sales gains in every month for the past three years," Chrysler's U.S. sales head Reid Bigland said in a statement. "Furthermore, in spite of limited inventory last month on some of our most popular models, we also managed to record our strongest monthly sales since 2007."
Toyota sold 205,342 vehicles last month, a 1 percent increase over March 2012. Honda sales (136,038) rose 7.1 percent, Volkswagen (37,704) gained 3 percent, Nissan (137,726) 1 percent while Hyundai sales slipped 2 percent in the month.
Hyundai sold 68,306 vehicles in March for its second-best sales month since it started selling cars in the United States in the 1980s.
Autodata Corp. estimated automakers will sell about 15.27 million light vehicles in the United States in 2013, compared to 14.14 million in 2012, with the cost of an average new vehicle increasing 1.1 percent in March to $31,087.

Jim Wilson hopes to continue in this capacity, as he has filed to run for the District 2, Position 5 on the Butler Community College Board of Trustees.
When the Butler Community College Board of Trustees had a vacancy last summer, Jim Wilson stepped up to fill the position. He hopes to continue in this capacity, as he has filed to run for the District 2, Position 5 seat he currently holds.
The position represents the townships of Augusta, Prospect, Rosalia, Spring, Little Walnut, Glencoe, Walnut, Bloomington, Logan, Hickory, Douglass, Rock Creek, Clay and Union.
"My primary reason was to give back to the community that had done so much for me," said Wilson. "My plan is to continue to serve on the Board for as long as the public will re-elect me and for as long as I think I am making a positive contribution to the college's future. With any new position there is a learning curve and having been on the Board for just a few months, I'm just part way through or into that learning curve."
Wilson, who served as the CEO of Susan B. Allen Memorial Hospital prior to his retirement in 2008, has been a Butler County resident since December 1985.
"I enjoy learning about the many different aspects of the college and how there is so much inter-relatedness," he said. "I enjoy using my critical thinking skills and drawing upon my experiences and values to help make the best decisions for the college. I enjoy being part of something that is successful. That success applies to the college itself, its many groups and its individual students."
Wilson appreciates what Butler offers to its students and the community.
"I like that the college has a good reputation," he said. "It provides many life-changing opportunities to so many individuals and it certainly makes a significant impact on our communities. I like the diversity there. It helps all of us better understand today's world."
He feels one of the biggest challenges facing the Board is replacing Butler President Dr. Jackie Vietti, who retired in December.
"The immediate goal for the Board of Trustees is to select the right person to replace Dr. Vietti and lead the college in the future," he said. "The challenges I see are very much related to our goals. We need to keep our education affordable. We need to concentrate on student success. We need to do whatever we can to make lifelong positive impacts on our students and have positive influences on the communities in our service area."
Wilson hopes to continue to stay involved and to help the Board make smart decisions for the future of the college.
"I want our Board to create an environment where everyone on our campuses makes good decisions," he said. "I want the Board to be informed and always be thinking of our various stake-holders when discussing agenda items and making decisions."
Wilson has two children and four step-children and seven grandchildren. He lives in Spring Township with his wife Helen, who is a teacher in Andover.

Woman killed boyfriend in self-defense: Asheboro police

The case was presented to the Randolph County District Attorney for review. Police issued the following statement:
"It has been determined that Ms. Silwood acted in self-defense for her life. At this point in time no charges will be filed."
No other information was released.

Lipscomb Bisons' soccer coach Charles Morrow certainly didn't do himself any favors when picking teams for the Hyatt Place Select/Lipscomb Invitational.
Joining Lipscomb in the tournament are UNC Asheville, the defending champion; UAB, ranked this week in the top 25 in the country; and long-time rival Belmont. The Bisons will play UNC Asheville Friday night at 7 and will face UAB Sunday at 4. They will not play Belmont.
'This is going to be a very competitive tournament." Morrow said. "UNC Asheville is a physical team that works extremely hard. It sounds like they a fairly direct team which is a different type of style and good for us to play against.
"When UNC Asheville gets the ball the plan is to get the ball to the frontrunners as quickly as possible. The backs will target the forwards pretty exclusively. The midfield is there to pick up the pieces."
UNC Asheville's players should be well-rested since they haven't played since Sept. 8. In last year's tournament UNC Asheville beat both Lipscomb and Belmont by 2-1 scores.
UAB, 3-1, is ranked 25th in the nation this week by College Soccer News. They are ranked No. 4 in the South Region by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America.
"UAB plays in a great conference in Conference USA," Morrow said. "UAB will also be very physical, but in a different kind of way.
"UAB is going to be very fast and quick. UAB is going to move the ball well and be very technical. I am really looking forward to that match-up as well."
The Bisons are 2-2, having won their last two outings this past weekend in the Belmont Invitational with a 3-1 win over Gardner-Webb and a 3-1 victory over Centenary.
"Scoring multiple goals in a game always helps the confidence," Morrow said. "But we should have scored a lot more.
"It is good we were able to score goals. But I think in both games we left a lot of goals out there. I understand we are going to have missed opportunities. Every team does. That's what makes the game enjoyable and maddening at the same time."
Garret Pettis and Miguel DaSilva each have two goals this season for the Bisons. Joey Chiappetta has three assists.
"The guys that we expect to score are scoring and new guys are stepping up," Morrow said. "But there are too many opportunities that are still being left out there. I expect it to improve as we go along."
On the field both games will offer different styles. Morrow is looking forward to seeing how his team performs against two different approaches to a game.
"UNC Asheville plays a system that is similar to what we saw against both Gardner-Webb and Centenary," Morrow said. "There are not a whole lot of changes that we will have to do, at least in that first game.
"Asheville is a game that will be more of a battle to determine which style is going to win out. The question is which team is going to be able to impose its will on the other team."
The Bisons play a possession style of game, but they can also take a more direct approach offensively.
"Our style is very similar to UAB's," Morrow said. "It will be interesting. I think it will be a fun game to watch. "
Morrow thinks hosting a tournament provides an extra boost for the soccer program each season.
"The crowd and the home field advantage are big," Morrow said. "This creates something else on campus for the students to do.
"We have tried to create an event type of environment for our home games. On Fridays there will be live music and food."

For my web app, I need the ability to get HTML pages from other servers. With Ext's built-in HttpProxy the HTML pages must be on the same domain where my web app is located. Obviously this will not work me, but using an iframe tag you can give it any URL and it will get that page.
Before I actually write any code, I was wondering if anyone else had the same problem and already wrote some code similar to what I would call an "iframeTagProxy" object?
If you would be interested in such an object post some of your requirements/needs so I can make this as useful as possible.

The proposal was one of a series urged by Prof. Carlo Schmid, -vice-president of the Bundestag, on the government to demonstrate the determination to wipe out all elements of anti- Seniltism and neoJ^Tazlsm in West Germany. tN PRESENTINQ the White Paper, Gerhard Schroeder, Minis¬ ter of the Interior, said that while the police investlgratlona at local and federal levels had not verified susplclins that the anti-Semitic Incideaits were organized, "there Is e-vldence to show that the Com. munists exploited them to dis¬ credit tlie Federal Republic and to create discord between the partners of the Western Alliance." He announced the Intention ot the government to create a com¬ mission of educators, scientists and leaders In public life to study means of impro'vtag political edu¬ cation in West Germany. He also said the government would aet against rightist groups by all means at its disposal. PfOf. Schmid asserted that antl- Semltlsm should not be viewed as an Isolated problem and that "wherever a Jew Is Insulted, the principles of democracy are at¬ tacked." DECLARING THAT such ac¬ tions should be considered treason against the state, he also listed as a step the government should take the removal of all persons from office who had been affiliated with the Nazis. The Wiilte Paper, said direct ties between vandals and politi¬ cal groups were found only in eight cases, seven of them involv¬ ing the German Relchs party. Among those arrested, the re¬ port said, 130 were cUldren under 20, 49 were persons under 30, 38 were under BO, 11 under 60 and six were 60 years old and older.

The climax of the hearing came when Rep, Leonard Farbstein,- New York Democrat, a member of the committee, told Herter tliat he was seriously considering an amendment to the Mutual Secur¬ ity Act to bar American aid to any nation denying tbe principle of freedom of the seas. Rep. Farbstein told Herter that, iii view of the massive American aid now being given tbe United Arab Republic, the United States liad a right to ask the UAR about its Suez Canal lestricUons against Israel, without depending entirely on United Nations-faction. Herter replied that tbe Ameri¬ can Ambassador In Oairo bad made representations to Presi¬ dent Nasser's regime, Oiat the United States was supporting ef¬ forts of UN Secretary CJeneral Hammarskjold, and that Herter had expressed tiimseU on the matter at the United Nations.

He also indicated dlsnilssal of the Idea of a possible American-Israel mutual security pact Eisenhower told his press con¬ ference that the United States, as a matter of policy, has never served as a major supplier of arms to Israel and does not in¬ tend to assume such a role now for Israel or any other country in that area., ACKNOWLEDGING that cer¬ tain Arab states were receiving (Communist arms, Eisenhower pointed out that Israel waa being supplied with military egulpitient by France and Great Britain. Eiseaihower said he should be "frank" in stating that the United States was sending enough arms to enough nations and tliat he would let somebody else carry that responsibility regarding Is¬ rael. He said he was unfamiliar with a recent suggestion by Senator Jacob K. Javits, New York Re¬ publican, that a mutual security treaty be negotiated to link Amer¬ ica with Israel in defense.

COUNCIL CALLS FOR BROAD STUDY ON RACIAL PREJUDICE NEW YORK, (JTA) — A broad program o f investigation, r e- search, conferences, and inter¬ group education in pulific, private and parochial schools, to deal with the underlying causes of re¬ ligious and racial prejudice in America, was called for by the National Cpmmunity Relations Advisory Counoil in a report is¬ sued recently. The report incorporates a re¬ view and evaluation of the rash of antl-Semltlc Incidents that oc curred In the United States dur¬ ing the month of January. The evaluation concludes that there is no cause for alarm in the Ameri¬ can Jewish community, since there Is no evidence of an antl- Semltlc plot or conspiracy In the United States and, In reacting to the Incidents, Americans have given a fresh demonstration of their practically universal ab¬ horrence of anti-Semitism. THBBB IS however, evidence of an undercurrent of latent anti- Semitism, the report finds, and an effective concerted attack on the underlying social causes of anti-Semitism and other forms of hatred is required to assure a- gainst Suture outbreaks. In tills connection, the report puts for¬ ward the following proposals: 1. That the US. Civil Bights C:!ommission or another federal agency specially created for that purpose systematically and con¬ tinually gather information about anti-Semitic and other hate mani¬ festations and that municipal and state commissions, undertake similar programs. 2. That the U^S. support a pend¬ ing UJf. resolution calling for a worldwide survey of such mani¬ festations. 8. That human relations com¬ missions call community-wide conferencea "under the broadest community auspices" to evaluate local situations and project co¬ ordinated programs of action. 4. TELAT INTEBQBOUP eduoa¬ tion programs be expanded. In. (OontlBnea •> pace t) look utterly futile. Agreeing with Uoyd that there was deterltJration Jn the Middle East SituaUon, ^e UN offioiai noted carefully that "actions here are possible in the Security Coun¬ cil, in the General Assembly, and by the Secretary Oeneral." ASSERTING that he had not been idle, he observed that there lyere actions "that other organs of the. United Natione can take and I cannot take." He added that "there Is a certain tendency in some quarters to forget these, differences and expect from the Secretary (Senerai actiona that be cannot perform." In effect admitting he had done all that he could, he asserted tbat "I see no other way to help the situation except for the. Security Council to strengthen the UN and for the UN to stick to ita gruns." Since Iioth the United States and Britain are permanent mem¬ bers of the powerful Seouxlt}'- C^unoil, tills statement was promptly accepted as a request by Mr. Hammarskjold to the two powers to get busy in the Security CJouncii with some activities of their own to deal with tho situa¬ tion. He dealt more generally N^th questions about Nasser's cfiCM- lenge to Premier Kassem of Iraq to send armies to support Syria and the "condemnation" by the Israel-Syrian Mixed Armistice Commission of Israel's action in the Tiberias demilitarized zone. He said all the facts were not yet tn on the situation in the zone. NAVY DROPS CUUSE WHICH HELPED ARAB BOYCOTT OF ISRAEL WASHINGTON (JTA) — Tho VB. Na-vy has decided to cancel a contract clause in its shipping contracts which has been widely criticized aa abetting the Arab boycott of Israel. The clause was part of a con¬ tract of the Military Sea Trans¬ port Service, wiiich acts as char¬ terer for the Navy. It contained options to protect Navy cargoes carried by shippers if the Arabs refused to accommodate their ships for having done business with Israel. Th% effect of the clause was to foreclose American shippers who have done business with Israel from bidding on the lucrative Navy transport cargo cantraota. Disclosure last Jan. 21 that the clauses had been in effect tor nearly two years touched off widespread protesta The Navy declared in a state¬ ment to Congress, that "the clause was adopted with no intention to give support to any politi(»l boycott" but rather on the basis that "it was deemed advantageous to both the government and ship¬ owners." However, the statement added, the Military Sea Transport Serv. ice "can accomplish its mission without using the clause. Inas¬ much OS it has been mistakenly constructed aa pro'ridipg aotte solace to the Araib boycott Im¬ posed on persona trading with Israel, the Navy will dlMontiikue ' ita use."

23As Jehudi read three or four columns, the king would cut them off with a knife and throw them into the fire in the fire pot, until the entire scroll was consumed in the fire that was in the pot. 24Yet neither the king nor any of his servants who heard all these words was afraid, nor did they tear their garments. 25Even when Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah urged the king not to burn the scroll, he would not listen to them. —Jeremiah 36:23-25
Have you ever been talking to someone and come to the realization that they are not listening to you? What do you do? Do you pause, get louder, or clap your hands? We usually try to do something to regain their attention. You want them to hear what you are saying, especially if it's really important.
That is exactly what God is doing here in Jeremiah. You have to go back to Jeremiah 25 and the first part of chapter 26 to see what is happening. In a nutshell, Jeremiah has enlisted the services of Baruch the scribe to write down the words that he says and to go and speak these words to the powers in charge. These are not any old words though; these are words from Almighty God. These are words that demand attention.
What was their response? When you read Jeremiah 36:10-18 it looks pretty good. The men tremble when they hear the words and they even give Baruch and Jeremiah a bit of helpful advice, telling them to hide because the king isn't going to like it (Jeremiah 36:19). Then the men bring the scroll to the king. And what does he do? He totally disregards it. Not only does he disregard it, he destroys it. He is unchanged by what he hears!
The brashness of the king is shocking! God speaks and the king says I'm not listening. But the sad fact is we do this all the time. God speaks, not in an audible voice, but through his Word. And we don't listen.
Want to hear better? Here are some ways to listen while you read:
1.) Read for quality not quantity. More is not always better. Slow down and read carefully.
2.) Write down what you are learning. Journal what God is teaching you.
3.) Pray. Pray that the Lord will enlighten as to the meaning of the passage. And pray that we take His instructions to heart.
4.) Expect God to teach you. Every time you read the Word of God, expect that it will impact your mind and lead to a change in your life.
Claim the promises of Scripture. Listen to the warnings against living in sin. Marvel at the wonder of our Savior Jesus Christ. Do not harden your hearts to what God is saying to you through His Word. Listen carefully; the Master is speaking!—Hayden Norris
· What has God been teaching me through His Word this last week? Write it down.
· What are some other ways I can increase my listening to the Word of God?
Prayer – Father, You are so gracious to speak to us through Your Word. Give me ears to hear. Help me have a heart of obedience because it is good for me and it also brings great glory to Your name. I want to know You better Lord, please speak to me through Your Word. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Sequins, Beads, & Glitter: Unexpected Sparkle at Home
If less is more, then just imagine how much more more would be! While it's easy to go overboard with over-the-top elements, a few bright accents like beads, sequins, or even glitter can add a pop of light to an otherwise staid environment, and they're very easy to DIY. If you're amenable to a bit of glitz, read on for some unexpected places to add sparkle to the home. Please note that I am in no way advocating the application of all these ideas in one space. But if you do, invite me over.
• Floors — Crafty Chica has a full tutorial on how to turn a plain concrete floor into a glitter-covered extravaganza.
• Wallpaper — Photographer Aaron Ruell works within some over-the-top rooms. The glittery pink wallpaper may be neither soothing nor spalike, but it certainly packs an impact.
• Bedspreads — When I first saw the silver sequin throw in Kylie Minogue's Kylie At Home collection, I thought I had died and gone to sparkly heaven. My husband begged for reassurance that it was out of our price range.
• Pillows — If the full sequin throw is too much, maybe an accent pillow or two can do it. Kylie included a couple of those in her bedding range, and a sequin pillowcase would be an easy DIY for even a sewing novice.
• Flower pots — This easy DIY glitter flower pot from Punk Projects is a great way to upgrade a standard terracotta pot.
• Shower curtains — Phew! A sequin shower curtain from Sin in Linen will sure wake you up in the morning.
• Regular curtains — In possibly the most tasteful application of the bunch, The Paris Apartment demonstrates how to incorporate sequined and beaded silk curtains into the boudoir without going full-on Kylie.
Any other ideas? Let us know in the comments.

Wayland science program for homeschoolers getting financial assistance
PLAINVIEW – For the past two and a half years, participants in the Plainview Area Homeschool Science Enhancement Program have delved into the world of beakers, test tubes and Bunsen burners, microscopes, dissection kits and more.
Now, the program will be benefiting from a grant from the Home School Foundation to help continue the program and provide needed resources for students.
The brainchild of Wayland Baptist University's Dr. Joel Boyd, assistant professor of chemistry, and Dr. Adam Reinhart, assistant professor of biological sciences, the program provides laboratory resources and experiences for home schooled students around the area. The program is designed to supplement the lessons these students are receiving in the home. But because of obvious safety and cost issues, home school students are often not able to have the laboratory experiences public school students enjoy.
"Students meet here once a month for labs that add to their home studies," explained Reinhart. "The first two years we did chemistry labs, and this year we're doing biology."
The $500 grant from HSF, along with a $100 donation from the local Integrity Educators group, was matched by Wayland administrators to double the money. The $1,200 will be used primarily for scholarship purposes.
"We have been seeking out external funding sources to help with student lab fees and in providing scholarships for student participants to attend Wayland," said Boyd, noting that one student from the initial group is now a chemistry major at WBU. "Those scholarships are important, because there are some traditional scholarships that home school students can't really apply for."
Reinhart and Boyd said the program is "a natural connection" for Wayland as a Christian school that draws a good number of students seeking that Christian atmosphere and moral environment, similar to what homeschooling parents are trying to provide for their children.
For more information on the home school science program, contact Reinhart at 291-1124.

Hey guys just wondering would if you ever heard of the Mass effect series video game (mainly 2 and 3) if you have I gotta say their weapons are awesome for their ability of their firearms lessen their size when not in use or their "omnitools" which are incredibly flexible if we could just put those things in a TSF or pilot it operational time on any model and survival chances of a pilot or soldier would definetly increase several folds
note: I know this is not related to japan in anyway

So yeah, it's goodbye BETA with death via orbital strike; again, to most SF universes, the BETA are easy mode because those verses have orbital fire support. You have a ship in orbit, it can deliver fire support outside the Heavy Laser's range. The problem is that Alternative Earth doesn't have orbital fire support.
As for infantry weapons, yes and no, because mass accelerator weapons don't seem to be that much more powerful than conventional weapons, and have issues regarding heat buildup. A TSF armed with a mass accelerator cannon could have virtually unlimited ammo on a sortie... but it would also need a lot of time for cooldown, which is not ideal when you are facing a really big BETA horde and need Final Protective Fires, now.

^Hmm.... I guess I was late on that topic or i probably missed reading it; BTW as much as I like weapons of mass destruction I really wasnt talking about mass accelerator cannons that can blow a city clean off the map I was more inspired by the ability of weapons to carry a huge load amount of ammo, the ability of their guns to make itself small when not in use(awkward) and omni-tools effectiveness as a computer, mechanical repair tool, first aid and to be an emergency knife who's blade is hard as daimond = removing of knife in a TSF

Okay,so I was quite in a mood to write the crossover fanfic that I currently though of(but no time to write it at all)
Then I suddenly wonder,how heavy is a TSF?
Considering battlemech in Battletech is twice as short as a TSF but weighing at most 100 tons,I thought TSF would be heavy.
But since Muvluv is made in Japan,and you can clearly how that affected Gundam weigh...(7 tons for a 20 meters tall mech,really?),I kept wondering about the weigh of TSF...
That is until I found out that aircrafts that can carried TSF EXIST in real life!
So there are two aircrafts that can carry a TSF in Muvluv
The C-5 Galaxy,and the An-225
One can carry 81.6 tons and the other can carry 250 tons
The C-5 Galaxy was seen in Alternative carrying the Shiranuis for the Valkyries
The An-225 can carry a freaking re-entry shell
While I don't how many Shiranui can one C-5 Galaxy carry,But based on the fact that the cargo compartment of the Galaxy is 5 meters wide,4 meters high,and 30.5 meters long,it definitely can carry one Shiranui(which have a height of 19 meters). It's also possibly that the Galaxy also carry assault cannon,sword and possibly spare parts.
The An-225 on the other hand can carry a re-entry shell that can store two TSFs.Since the re-entry shell have thick armor that can withstand laser far more longer than TSF could,the armor might be REALLY heavy.
So,for the conclusion,a TSF could have a average of 50 to 100 tons in weigh.And Generation 1 TSF might be even heavier,much much more heavier
Still insanely light for something that huge though,but then they must have used a lot of supercarbon...carbon which is a lot more lighter than steel
Now my analysis is done and I hope this report would impress you guys in some ways

Not something you want to use to fight alien that weigh hundreds of tons
Also,I have calculated that a TSF with Rush Guard configuration would have atleast 25 tons of 36mm rounds(By calculating the amount of 2000x36mm magazines the rush guard formation have and the weight of 36mm cartridges....however,I only find the weight of 30mm DU round,so it might be even more heavier than that)
That would make the A-10 having huge drum magazines made of magic though....

I couldn't see a third gen like the Shiranui weighing more than 30-40 tons dry. And if you go by most modern aircraft carrying about 60% of their dry weight again in ordnance they may very well tip sixty tons in a full combat load.
Then again like modern aircraft they aren't always going to deploy with the heaviest load out depending on their position within the flight.

I was wondering why the Royal Guard were still using Zuikakus when F-15J Kagerous were available to the regular imperial army? The Kagerous were at least in production at least 5 years until they decided on switching to the Shiranui.
Is it because the Zuikaku is more of a status symbol and they didn't invest in a royal guard version of the Kagerou?

One thing that I want to add - looking at TSF engines, that definitely more powerful than newest real engines of combat jets, we can safely assume, that if "Mria" is equiped with some analog of TSF engines, it could lift far more weight than 250 t.
I am too participated in some MLA fanfic and we set TSF weight as 150-200 tons there. It seems more realistic, assuming that TSF weren`t consist of morning mist

Today,I decided to calculate the weight of TSF by using its volume
So...a Shiranui is 19 meters tall
Based on my last post,the C-5 Galaxy has a cargo compartment that is 5 meters wide,4 meters tall and 30 meters long
We shall give it a volume of 380 cubic meters(19x5x4),which should roughly predict the volume of Shiranui.(Probably half of that though,considering TSF isn't that fat...)
A lot of super carbon was used to make Shiranui,maybe that's why human can make a lot of TSF,carbon is everywhere.
Anyway,by using density of carbon(in diamond form,because it probably the closest to the fictional super carbon)
I got a weight value of....1335tons...
Well,I didn't expected that
If Shiranui was that heavy then the XG-70 would be....
Suddenly,the forts class ability to break ship in half with one strike seemed so possible now
Anyway,let not think about physic too much...
Although BETA being consist of that much of carbon would greatly help my character in my fanfiction

Thing is, that weight is way too high for a TSF. Hell, even most main battle tanks don't outmass 70-80 tons.
Given the dimensions of the TSFs, and how nimbly they move, I'd say their max takeoff weight would correspond to their IRL analogues. So we're looking at a range somewhere around 25-35 tons for 2nd and 3rd Gen TSFs.
Also, different things will weigh differently depending on their density - it's why if you take an identically-sized block of wood and a block of gold, the gold will be heavier.

Well, yeah, but this is the first time where I see people arguing for ridiculously heavy weights and my lighter weight being dismissed due to logic, lol.
I'll just point out, gents, that logically, given the smaller wing area on TSFs, to achieve lift and flight while weighing 100 tons would be nigh-on impossible.
"But Goose, we have planes that weigh 250 tons!"
Yes, and those planes have massive wing area that generates a crapton more lift.
At the end of the day, however, this is trivia - TSFs weigh as much as they need to. Nobody will actually really need the exact weight of a TSF.

"We are in a sick market for old-school gaming"
BioWare co-founder Greg Zeschuk has expressed his concerns about the future of the console market.
Ever since the traditional games market began its downturn in 2009, many have pegged their hopes of rejuvenation on the new breed of consoles.
And despite Wii U's comparative failure until this point, common consensus would have us believe that the twin forces of PS4 and Xbox 720 will lead a resurrection of the market and a bright new era.
Zeschuk is less than convinced.
We are in a kind of sick market for old-school gaming – the traditional retail-based gaming – and as much as EA has moved into digital, the boxed stuff is not as robust," he told Games Industry. While digital is coming up fast it's not filling in the gaps.
Everyone's kind of holding out hope for the new consoles, but I honestly don't think they're going to be that big a deal. I worry a lot that unless Microsoft or Sony pull something magically out of a hat, it's pretty much the same old, same old repackaged and I don't think they're going to change the dynamic of the retail market.
I don't see how they can – the market is what it is.
Activision and Blizzard have been doing really well, and they've been very disciplined and focused, but how long can they continue? They've been relying on a smaller number of titles, but no title works forever, and obviously they will be working hard to replace the games they're working on.
So they're probably one of the shining examples of company that's done well by really doubling down on a very narrow amount of things, and trying some different stuff - I'm actually really impressed with Skylanders."
