>Running 101>lydiard difference in sprint training and fast striding???
Everything i see on lydiard sprint training says 10x100 meters. everything i see of his on strides, striders, etc. says 10x100 meters. So, what exactly is the difference Monday: Sprint training.Tuesday: RepetitionsWednesday: Easy fartlek 1/2 to 1 hour (jogging and striding or sprint training).Thursday: Repetitions.Friday: Relaxed striding (fast and easy).Saturday: Repetitions.Sunday: Aerobic running 1 to 2 hours.
CPT Curmudgeon
Any mention of effort or pace?
no not that i can find.
I did find one site that showed the sprints as 100m x 10 and the strides as 300 meters x4
they all just say what i posted
Try Nobby. Though in one of his recent posts he said he'd be away from the site for a few days.
is nobby on this site Nobby Hashizume?? I've seen him on but had no idea it was THE NOBBY?
Yep! Same person!! Small world, eh?
Edited: I guess his ears were ringing!
is nobby on this site Nobby Hashizume?? I've seen him on but had no idea it was THE NOBBY?
E-hem... Yes, it is THE Nobby (is there any other Nobby?). ;o) Actually, there are lots of Nobbys. One famous one is a Irish (or was he Scottish...?) boxing trainer by the name of Nobby Welsh.
First of all, I don't think ALL the Lydiard sprinting training says 10 X 100m. I may be wrong with this but I think he would refer "sprint training" as "sprint training". It is because sprint training is what sprinters do. I don't think sprinters just do 10 X 100m. Now, IF it does say 10 X 100m all over the place, I'd have to thank you because we would need to correct it. Well, not really (which part?)... I mean, it CAN be 10 X 100m; but it doesn't have to be. And, then again, same with Strides. It doesn't have to be 10 X 100m and, in fact, our new Running Wizard (formerly known as Master Run Coach) beginner's training plan has Strides but it could be as little as 3 X 20m.
Sprint Training is just as the name suggest; you sprints, or work on your sprints. What Lydiard had meant actually also includes some drills, such as high knees or skipping or Zombie (what U of O former coach Dellinger used to call) or butt-kicking or stuff like that. These are ALL "sprint" training AS WELL AS some fast running such as 10 X 100m. I would actually suggests more like 3~5 X 70m simply because you don't want to tire yourself too much; just enough to teach your body to run fast. Here's the thing; you want to RUN FAST (=sprint).
On the other hand, Strides is a bit different. You want to teach your body to run FAST and RELAXED. In other words, it's fast in a sense that it's fastER than your normal running pace but you don't want to run THAT fast that you may start to struggle. Then you won't be relaxed. Strides is to teach your body to run FAST AND RELAXED. I usually tell people to think about the start of a 5k race. Fast, but not that fast--certainly not a "sprinting" speed.
I know some "terms" Lydiard used can be a bit confusing--he was not a terminologist. He really didn't care what he called some of the workouts and some people don't like that side of Lydiard at all. But those are a theorist. I remember talking to Dick Quax one time about what some of the workout is called. He just got frustrated and just said; "I don't give a damn what it's called as long as I know what we're doing!" So true. But, yes, Lydaird wasn't very good at conveying his terms. More of a reason why you really shouldn't completely rely on the schedule or terminologies. Think of what you need and how to achieve it best.
I'd assume what you had posted here is a training schedule for 5k or 1500m??? If he had said you should do "sprint" training during Anaerobic Phase (where you'd do twice or three times a week Repetitions), it shouldn't be a marathon schedule. Oh, and another thing; when he came to Japan in 1991, one of the coaches showed him why there's no Hill Training Phase in one of his books for one of the training schedules. He said there's no way he would have removed a Hill Training Phase and, when this guy showed him, lo and behold, that there was in fact a Hill Training Phase missing, he got so irritated and started to say that it was a printing issue and that's why he hated working with printers because they make mistakes (I don't know who did the proof reading...). I can show you a literature that goes, "Zatopek's amazing training went as far as doing 10 X 400m interval training a day!!..." Of course, it was supposed to say "100 X 400m" and it was clearly a typo.
no not that i can find.
I did find one site that showed the sprints as 100m x 10 and the strides as 300 meters x4
they all just say what i posted
On the very site you had referred to, this is what it says about "Sprint Training". This is usually termed "Sprint Training", not just simply 10 X 100m:
On alternate days, it is wise to concentrate upon developong your speed to near it's maximum by carrying out sprint training workouts of suppling and loosening exercises, sprint starts and sprint races, and leg speed running.
A typical workout could be: Warm-up by running easily for about 15 minutes, doing exercises for 10 to 15 minutes, running easily for 5 more minutes. Follow by runs over 70 to 100 meters, concentrating upon the following elements; with a jog between each run of 3 minutes:
(A) The runs to develop stride length by exaggerating the length of the strides and pushing off hard with the back leg.
(B) another by running tall, bring your knees high and getting up high on your toes.
(C) and another by moving the legs as fast as possible to develop a quick leg turn-over.
Then the last set of runs covering all o these things These runs can be done two or three times with each exercise. Also some sprint starts can be used and a sprint race or two competed in for training. Any for of American sprint training is usually good as long as it covers theses points that I have made.
Well I'm not doing marathon but am doing 10 mile races and 10ks. So this schedule won't be appropriate? what should I be doing the last 6-8 weeks of training?

Alternate Names
Metered-dose inhaler (MDI) administration - no spacer
Using a metered-dose inhaler (MDI) seems simple, but many people do not use them the right way. If you use your MDI the wrong way, less medicine gets to your lungs. If you have a spacer, you should use it because it helps get more of the medicine into your airways.
(Note: The instructions below are not for dry powder inhalers. They have different instructions.)
Getting Ready
- Take off the cap and shake the inhaler hard.
- If you have not used the inhaler in a while, you may need to prime it. See the instructions that your inhaler came with for how to do this.
- Breathe out all the way.
- Hold the inhaler 1- 2 inches in front of your mouth (about the width of 2 fingers).
Breathe in Slowly
- Start breathing in slowly through your mouth, and then press down on the inhaler 1 time. (If you use a spacer, press down on the inhaler before you breathe in. Within 5 seconds, begin to breathe in slowly.)
- Keep breathing in slowly, as deeply as you can.
Hold Your Breath
- Hold your breath as you count to 10 slowly, if you can. This lets the medicine reach deep into your lungs.
- If you are using inhaled quick-relief medicine (beta-agonists), wait about 1 minute before you take your next puff. You do not need to wait a minute between puffs for other medicines.
- After using your inhaler, rinse your mouth with water, gargle, and spit out. This will help reduce unwanted side effects from your medicine.
Keep Your Inhaler Clean
Look at the hole where the medicine sprays out of your inhaler. If you see powder in or around the hole, clean the inhaler. First, remove the metal canister from the L-shaped plastic mouthpiece. Rinse only the mouthpiece and cap in warm water. Let them air dry overnight. In the morning, put the canister back inside. Put the cap on. Do not rinse any other parts.
Replacing Your Inhaler
For control medicines you take each day, write the date you need to replace it on the canister.
To figure out this date, use the number of puffs you take each day and the number of puffs your canister contains. For example, say your new canister has 200 puffs (number of puffs is listed on canister) and your doctor tells you to take 8 puffs each day. This canister will last 25 days. If you started using this inhaler on May 1, replace it on or before May 25. Write May 25 on your canister.
Do NOT put your canister in water to see if it is empty. This does not work.
Bring your inhaler to your clinic appointments. Your doctor can make sure you are using it the right way.

Ok, after months of much take and no give, I am going to post my first "Works-for-Me-Wednesday" post. I totally discovered this "trick" when I was driving down the road and one of the kids kicked over my Super Biggie Jumbo iced tea. All over the passenger-side floor of my beloved Suburban. (It's like my fifth child...I love it dearly). I pull over to the side of the road and am rooting through all kinds of papers and trash trying to find SOMETHING, ANYTHING absorbent. Then it came to me...a disposable diaper!! (A clean one, preferably :o) ) Worked like a charm to suck up every last drop of that tea. I just opened the diaper up and pressed it down hard on the carpet and it worked great! So, now, even though my youngest is (finally) out of diapers, I still keep several disposable diapers in our vehicle for such spills. Of course, when you are finished with it, you can just wrap and tuck and tape that baby up. Did you ever notice that you can tell how experienced a woman is in diaper changing by observing her "wrapped" dirty diaper? A first-time mother leaves a loosely wrapped diaper the size of a softball. By the fifth child, I could wrap and tuck a size 6 diaper to where it would fit in a pill bottle. Yea for me.

20 U.S. Code § 2101 - Congressional declaration of findings and purpose
prev | next
§ 2101.
Congressional declaration of findings and purpose
(a) The Congress hereby finds and declares—
that the diversity inherent in American folklife has contributed greatly to the cultural richness of the Nation and has fostered a sense of individuality and identity among the American people;
that the history of the United States effectively demonstrates that building a strong nation does not require the sacrifice of cultural differences;
that American folklife has a fundamental influence on the desires, beliefs, values, and character of the American people;
that it is appropriate and necessary for the Federal Government to support research and scholarship in American folklife in order to contribute to an understanding of the complex problems of the basic desires, beliefs, and values of the American people in both rural and urban areas;
that the encouragement and support of American folklife, while primarily a matter for private and local initiative, is also an appropriate matter of concern to the Federal Government; and
that it is in the interest of the general welfare of the Nation to preserve, support, revitalize, and disseminate American folklife traditions and arts.
It is therefore the purpose of this subchapter to establish in the Library of Congress an American Folklife Center to preserve and present American folklife.
(Pub. L. 94–201, § 2, Jan. 2, 1976, 89 Stat. 1129.)
Short Title of 2016 Amendment
Pub. L. 114–246, § 1, Nov. 28, 2016, 130 Stat. 995, provided that:
"This Act [amending section 2142 of this title] may be cited as the 'Gold Star Families Voices Act'."
Short Title
Pub. L. 94–201, § 1, Jan. 2, 1976, 89 Stat. 1129, provided:
"That this Act [enacting this subchapter] may be cited as the 'American Folklife Preservation Act'."
Pub. L. 106–380, § 1, Oct. 27, 2000, 114 Stat. 1447, provided that:
"This Act [enacting subchapter II of this chapter] may be cited as the 'Veterans' Oral History Project Act'."
Findings and Purpose of 1998 Amendment
Pub. L. 105–275, title III, § 312(a), Oct. 21, 1998, 112 Stat. 2457, provided that:
"(1)Findings.—Congress makes the following findings:
The American Folklife Center in the Library of Congress was created by Congress in 1976, building on the vast expertise and archival material existing at the Library since 1928.
As an instrumentality of the Congress, it is fitting that the American Folklife Center should have a direct and close relationship with the representatives of the people, who are best able to oversee the ongoing activities of the Center to preserve and promote the cultural traditions of the people, and to ensure that the resources of the Center be readily available to all Americans.
"(C) In over 20 years since its creation, the American Folklife Center in the Library of Congress has—
increased the size of the Archive of Folk Culture from 500,000 to 1,500,000 multi-format ethnographic items;
engaged in 15 cultural surveys and field documentation projects in all regions of the country;
produced exhibitions and other educational programs on American Folklife at the Library and around the country;
begun sharing its unique collections in digital form via the Internet; and
served as a national center for the professions of folklore, ethnomusicology, and cultural studies.
Congress has consistently provided encouragement and support of American Folklife as an appropriate matter of concern to the Federal Government, passing legislation to reauthorize the Center eight times since its creation in 1976.
The American Folklife Center is the only unit in the Library of Congress which is not permanently authorized. Since its establishment in 1976, the Center's collections and activities have been fully and successfully integrated into the Library of Congress. It is useful to statutorily conform the American Folklife Center with the rest of the Library of Congress.
It is the purpose of this section [amending sections 2103, 2106, and 2107 of this title and enacting provisions set out as a note under section 2103 of this title] to authorize permanently the American Folklife Center in the Library of Congress to preserve and present American Folklife."

LIVINGSTON, Tenn. -- The fight in the Tigers was ferocious for the first six minutes Thursday night, but Tennessee Tech took the bite out of Hiwassee with a 15-2 first-half run that began converting a close game into a rout as the Golden Eagles notched a 113-42 victory in a game played at Livingston Academy.
Tech set a school record by forcing 38 Tiger turnovers. The
Golden Eagles tied a second school record with 26 steals.
On Sunday, the Golden Eagles (3-5 overall) will put their unbeaten (1-0) Ohio Valley Conference record on the line when they host Eastern Illinois in a regionally televised game. Tipoff is slated for 4 p.m. in Eblen Center.
Six Golden Eagles reached double figures in the scoring column, headed by Jud Dillard's 19 points. He also had seven rebounds and four steals.
Liam McMorrow recorded his first double-double as Golden Eagle, posting a pair of career-highs with 15 points and 12 rebounds. Kevin Murphy also scored 15, followed by Chase Dunn (14), and both Dennis Ogbe and Alfred Jones (11 each).
Point guard Zac Swansey had a solid floor game with six points, seven assists and five steals. Zach Bailey (photo above right) had opposite numbers with five assists and seven steals, finishing one shy of the school mark for steals in a game.
The Golden Eagles had a 51-25 advantage in rebounds. Tech shot 59.5 percent (44-for-74) from the field.
Hiwassee had a pair of double-digit scorers. Zack Williams hit 15 and Adrian McClaurin added 11.
Hiwassee scored the first basket and was on top 4-1 a little over a minute into the contest. After knotting the game at 5-5 with a free throw by Alfred Jones, the Golden Eagles grabbed the lead for good on a basket by Dennis Ogbe with 17:41 to play in the period.
A jumper by Zack Williams pulled the Tigers within five, 14-9, with 13:45 to go before Tech's decisive run. It began with back-to-back 3-pointers by Kevin Murphy and ended when Liam McMorrow's jumper with 8:32 remaining made it 29-11.
Tech continued to add to the margin, heading to halftime up by 28 points, 47-19.
The largest lead of the night was 75 points following a Dunn
jumper with 56 seconds remaining, putting Tech on top 113-38. The
Tigers connected on the final two baskets for the final 71-point
margin, avoiding being tagged with the largest margin of victory by
the Golden Eagles (74).
The Golden Eagles were close to the most points scored under coach Mike Sutton, and the least points allowed under the ninth-year skipper. The 113 points scored was within four of the most by a Sutton-coached Tech squad, while the 42 was within two of the fewest allowed in his tenure.

Hello all,I was recently browsing at orthodoxbookstore.org in their liturgical books section since I'm think about buying the Holy Psalmody book but while checking out other books I came across a book that is part of the Coptic Offices series and one of them contains outside the church services and that one contains "prayer of bathing, the betrothal, blessing of homes and the memorial service for funerals." Now, I'm curious about the bathing prayer. What is this prayer and how is it used? Is it used for bathing in general or is it a certain type of bathing done before prayer or something? Here is the link to the book: http://www.orthodoxbookstore.org/thecopticoffices-outsidechurchservices.aspx Can somebody post the text of this prayer with explanation please? I would appreciate it.
Very interesting, Father. We also have a prayer on the 8th day after birth, but its focus is the giving of the baby's name.Here's a question: Do you have a similar rite of washing for the 8th day after Baptism? We do, but nowadays it is done at the end of the Baptismal ceremony itself, along with the tonsure. No waiting.
I have another question on Coptic practice...Who decides the readings for the liturgy?

I know you are a fan of this gentleman. I find his pants never seen to lay properly, maybe because of the narrow bottom, but they seem to just not look good. I like a pant that flows well down the leg, his seem to bunch and look poorly all up to the crotch (no, I was not staring)…Just my 2 cents, but for me his outfits just do not send a sign of style and class out.
I think you have to remember that these are snapshots used to inspire. If I tried to pose everyone perfectly it would lose the spirit.
Everyones pants wrinkle, crinkle, and rumple – thats life and I think that is more inspirational than a high gloss empty suit.
Regarding his style I have to politely disagree, David is one of the few people I would ask top help me put a look together.
I do appreciate your input though, thanks
those are nice pants. The wide leg, free-drape pants is just a different style, with its own limitations and charm.
I appreciate your comments Mr. Sartoralist; however, the first commentor is correct. As a stylist who comes from a family of well dressed men there is something to be said about pants that drape correctly. It starts with the proper break. Well enough of that I am more disappointed in his shoes. They are horrible. Not because of color or style, but because of up-keep. I find this is an area most men fall short in. They will spend hundreds even thousands on their garments and just ignore the quality of their kicks. Even if one can not afford an expensive pair of shoes, one should always keep them shined, with good soles and heels. Where I am from the first thing a woman notices on a gentleman is his shoes.
the charm of this young man is in his smile and the des-elegance, the fact that he doesn´t fit to a regular, straight, way of dressing.
by one hand is horrible, by other hand is relaxed.
Agree with the first commenter and Mr. Williams – something is off about the proportion of the pants to the jacket. It's like an old man's jacket (boxy) with a young guy's pants (tapered). This could work, but it doesn't here. Might have worked on a guy 20 years younger, or might be as simple as unbuttoning the jacket to improve the look, but otherwise, no amount of styling alone is going to fix this. Again, if he were younger, the pants tucked into a nice pair or work boots would make the look complete. As it is, he needs a more traditional cut trouser (fuller) to balance the jacket. Thank you.

Ore City ISD voters Saturday overwhelmingly approved a change in the way school property taxes are distributed—a move aimed at obtaining about $580,000 more in state aid to the district.
The proposition passed by a vote of 135-23, said School Supt. Lynn Heflin. Some 111 voters had cast early ballots before Saturday, a school spokeswoman said.
"We're very pleased," Heflin told The Mirror Monday. "The district (will) benefit from this. Maximizing the state revenue is important."
Heflin had said before the election that it did not involve increasing taxes. Instead, he had said, voters would decide whether to raise the maintenance and operation (M&O) part of the tax rate by 13 cents.
The school board had approved lowering the interest and sinking (I&S) part of the rate by the same amount if the proposal passed, Heflin said.
Thus, the total tax rate would have remained $1.335 per $100 valuation whether the proposal passed or not, Heflin had said.
Voters approved raising the M&O part of the rate from the current $1.04 to $1.17, which will result in lowering the I&S part of the rate from the current 29.5 cents to 16.5.
"We are actually looking at doing a tax swap," Heflin had explained. The move would increase the state's aid—which hinges on the M&O part of the tax rate—to a total of $7,357,000 for the 2012-2013 fiscal year, he said.
Although the overall tax rate will not rise from the passage of Saturday's proposition, Heflin said state law nonetheless requires an election anytime a school proposes increasing the M&O portion of the rate.
The loss in I&S revenue can be made up by using part of the school's reserves to pay on the district's debt, he said. The hike in state aid is "a plus for us," Heflin had said.
"We're a property-poor district, and every penny is important to us," he said.

"...a slick, seamless performance that combines theater with technology..."— Minneapolis Star Tribune
In a highlight of its reopening week, the Wexner Center presents New York-based multimedia performance ensemble The Builders Association in the engaging, often humorous, and very up-to-the-minute theater work SUPER VISION, November 2–6, 2005. The Wexner Center is lead co-producer for SUPER VISION, which is touring throughout the United States, and which (like many notable performance works of the past decade) has been launched under the auspices of the Wexner Center Residency Award program. Tickets are $16 general public, $13 members, $10 students, available at the Wexner Center (614 292-3535) and Ticketmaster (614 431-3600).
Created by The Builders Association in collaboration with the computer imaging studio dbox, SUPER VISION is a foray into the world of surveillance technology and the transformation of personal identity in the Digital Age. Developed at the Wexner Center and at Ohio State's Advanced Computing Center for the Arts and Design (ACCAD), the work uses live performance, digital animation, computer music, and new video techniques to make visible an unseen environment in which we all now live: the cyberworld of information and surveillance, in which personal identity is transformed into a "data body" that will outlive the human subject. Utilizing sophisticated computer technology and advanced design concepts, SUPER VISION charts the story of three characters who find themselves caught in this very contemporary web.
The Builders Association's prior production, the critically acclaimed Alladeen—which was co-commissioned by and premiered at the Wexner Center—presciently delved into the issues of job outsourcing and globalization.
According to Wexner Center Director Sherri Geldin, "The extended residency for The Builders Association was a natural outcome of our earlier collaboration, and exemplifies the sustained relationship that the Wexner Center pursues with artists we believe in."
Charles Helm, Director of Performing Arts at the Wexner Center, comments, "By partnering with ACCAD for SUPER VISION's creative residency, we explored how university-based arts organizations can provide artists with access to a wide range of sophisticated resources, advancing their research while also involving students in the creative process."
"The Wexner Center's support has been crucial to the development of SUPER VISION," states Marianne Weems, Artistic Director of The Builders Association. "Without the center and a handful of other significant presenters in America, this kind of challenging, highly technical, process-based work simply would not survive. Chuck Helm really understands and supports how this work is created."
In conjunction with the performance of SUPER VISION, The Builders Association and dbox will conduct a discussion session with theatre students, ACCAD students, and students from a variety of academic areas studying issues related to surveillance technology and privacy. The session will explore the array of thematic concepts that SUPER VISION deals with as well as focus on the new theatrical methods and design concepts they developed for this work.
SUPER VISION is directed by Marianne Weems, with virtual design by dbox, set design by Tony Award-winner Stewart Laing (Titanic on Broadway), text by Constance De Jong, and video design by Peter Flaherty. It features The Builders Association's longtime members Dan Dobson, sound designer, and lighting designer Jennifer Tipton, as well as key performers from the company.
CALENDAR INFORMATION for SUPER VISION
Description: New York multimedia performance ensemble The Builders Association performs SUPER VISION, a darkly humorous look at Digital Age anxieties.
Date and time: Wednesday–Saturday, November 2–5 at 8 pm and Sunday, November 6 at 2 pm
Location: Wexner Center's Black Box on Mershon Stage (audience and actors onstage), 1871 N. High St. Capacity 100. Tickets: $16 general public, $13 members, $10 students.
Ticket outlets: Wexner Center Ticket Office (614 292-3535) and Ticketmaster outlets (614 431-3600).
Public information: 614 292-3535 and wexarts.org, and thebuildersassociation.org.
The Wexner Center for the Arts at The Ohio State University is the Lead Coproducer for SUPER VISION. The Wexner Center in association with the Advanced Computing Center for the Arts and Design at The Ohio State University jointly sponsored a creative residency to develop its digital technology and design concepts.
Coproducers: Walker Art Center (Minneapolis, MN), with additional support for final technical development; Montclair State University: Office of Arts & Cultural Programming; Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts, UC Davis; Liverpool, European Capital of Culture 2008; New Zealand International Arts Festival; BAM Next Wave Festival. Residency support was provided by The Kitchen and Arts at St. Ann's.
This performance of SUPER VISION is presented with support from the Greater Columbus Arts Council and the National Endowment for the Arts.
SUPER VISION was created in part with support from The Greenwall Foundation's 2005 Oscar M. Ruebhausen Commission; the Multi-Arts Production Fund, and the National Endowment for the Arts.

An Under Armour Mom is a woman between the age of 25 and 50 (there have been sightings of UAM's up to 65 years old, however) who has children, is currently married or divorced, and thinks she is an athlete. She attends yoga class every now and then, she might even go for a quick jog with her baby in the stroller, or participate in a triathlon "for the challenge" (rides a mountain bike with aero bars, doesn't really know how to swim). Due to her active and healthy lifestyle which makes her better than everyone else, she requires that her clothing express her passion for moderate exercise to her peers. She will regularly spend hundreds of dollars on Under Armour clothing and wears it on a regular basis even when not "training". T-Shirts that say "ATHLETE" on them, or "TRAIN HARD" or "PROTECT THIS HOUSE" are slogans of choice. When it's cold outside, she needs some "Coldgear". When it's hot outside, she seems some "Heatgear". The performance enhancing microfibers help her perform better, whether it be kicking the soccer ball around with her family, or picking up a pizza in her gigantic SUV.
She is a poser.
She is a poser.
Some guy: Wow look at all that Under Armour gear that lady just bought, she must be preparing for some serious athletic training in the near future.
Another guy: Yeah, she's so cool. I wish I was an athlete just like her.

The Lipscomb track & field teams will remain in Nashville this week as they compete in the Vanderbilt Invitational. This week John Clevenger reflects on last weekend's efforts and how to develop friendships through rivalries.
This past weekend there were three gangs of the LU Track & Field team. The first team was a group of our sprinters and some jumpers who traveled down to Ole Miss to compete. The second team was my team of throwers and vaulters competing at Tennessee State University, and the final team was a mostly distance squad that was resting.
The Boston-Moon Invite at TSU is always a strange atmosphere because it is a collegiate meet that doubles as a high school meet. It is so fun to see the high schoolers compete as their family and friends all cheer them on. They don't always post the most impressive marks, but the energy that they bring to the entire meet is so cool. Usually, Lipscomb University is the loudest team at a meet, but not at this one.
There were so many other cool things going on at Boston-Moon. This meet does not generally have the stiffest competition, so Lipscomb is usually able to post more top-performances with greater ease than at some of the larger meets.
Another awesome aspect is that Belmont is in the same boat. They are generally better than the other competition at this meet so it almost turns many of the events into a duel between the two rivals. Since neither school has a home track meet, it becomes our own make shift "Battle of the Boulevard".
I have a really good friend on Belmont's team. He is their javelin thrower and his name is Collier Richards. He got the better of me in our shared event as he took first and I got second. But he and I congratulated each other on our performances. We wished each other luck as we are going to be throwing against each other at Vanderbilt next week.
The Belmont throwers, at least the guys that I know, are a good group of guys. They are athletic, competitive, and always demonstrate the highest level of sportsmanship.
Whether they win or lose, they are respectful and encouraging. They have several guys who throw the discus, hammer, and shot put and they compete against our very own Houston Ward. He can beat them in the shot and disc, but they outperform him in the hammer. But all of the"Belmont Boys" and Houston get along really well. I can always see them cracking each other up and having fun.
The Lipscomb thrower guys just sat with the Belmont thrower guys for the longest time just chitchatting and conversing. We were enjoying the beauty that comes from an in-city rivalry, and that is seeing each other so frequently that we transcend the limits of competition and school spirit. I consider these guys as friends and I know that they likewise see us in a shared light.
I know that the Bisons are looking forward to some stiff competition at Vanderbilt, and I know that our rivals and our friends the Bruins are looking to push us to higher performances.
The Lipscomb track & field teams will remain in Nashville this week as they compete in the Vanderbilt Invitational. This week John Clevenger reflects on last weekend's efforts and how to develop friendships through rivalries.

He has done a lot of good for himself in his handling of the Gaza crisis, taking a firm line in support of Israel and letting the left wing of the party know that the days of shallow posturing are over. In doing so he risks alienating important elements of the party, but it's the sort of strong-minded decision-making that won Stephen Harper respect from voters, even those not disposed to admiring Tories.
But not under Michael Ignatieff. Notwithstanding his own rhetorical toadying to Israel's critics in 2006, he's taken a firm pro-Israel line in the Gaza conflict....The Kay column is particularly nonsensical, because it presents a false choice between unequivocal support for Israel and the far left, Sid Ryan routine. How anyone can credibly posit such a simplistic choice, concerning such a complex issue, escapes me, but it is a black and white world for ideologues I suppose.
This is more than just a stirring demonstration of moral clarity. It is also smart politics...
Ignatieff is signalling that a well-informed adult is now firmly in command.
I would argue, it's a worrying development that NP is lavishing praise, because frankly it appeals to a demographic which is really weak terrain for the Liberals. The argument that this policy speaks to the "center" is wrong, a one-sided perspective appeals to the right (not withstanding Jewish support, which does have electoral consequence) a subset which is firmly in the pocket of the Conservatives. The feverish hawk vote is the Conservative base, you see no argument or discussion within this group (see BT's for a practical example), it's just knee jerk support, based on ideology. Only a fool entertains the notion that a firm position can realistically siphon off this support, the Liberals might earn "respect", but the votes will never come.
The Liberals need to appeal to the center, the mainstream view of this conflict, which largely supports one view or another, with caveats for dual responsibility. Eliminate the far left, because that isn't fertile ground, but don't alienate the majority view, in some non-starter pursuit of the Conservative base. The fact the NP thinks you're bang on, means your probably out of step from where you need to be.
I understand the impetus for the "firm" position, because you can't view Ignatieff's position in isolation. There is no question, that past musings during the Lebanon conflict cost Ignatieff politically, it spoke to a lack of seasoning, a bumbling quality that was counter-productive. Fast forward to today, and you can see how handlers wanted to avoid a repeat, a desire to look resolute and solid. Couple that fact, with the usual heat from the right, to try and paint the Liberal Party as soft on terror, anti-Israel, and Ignatieff's "reaction" is seen in a better light. Not a statement on correctness, but just some recognition of the environment within.
The Liberal Party should just ignore the 20-25% of voters that make up the Conservative core, just as they should ignore the other side, equally one-sided, lacking any sense of nuance, far too cut and dry for a serious read. I could care less what Ezra Levant thinks, or a newspaper with an agenda, it's not our audience, it's irrelevant to our thought process. Largely parroting the Harper view might win you temporary praise from entities that will never support you in the end, but it isn't a sound recipe for electoral success. It is also pure folly to alienate part of your own base, as you appeal to the unattainable.
What we see isn't "smart politics", because if I'm looking to areas of the country where Ignatieff could shine, this position doesn't win many converts, in fact it's somewhat offside. I view the "praise" as a clear signal that you've moved a touch too far, it's not a positive, more correctly concerning.

LOS ANGELES --Tony Scott, director of such Hollywood blockbusters as "Top Gun," ''Days of Thunder" and "Beverly Hills Cop II," died Sunday after jumping from a Los Angeles County Bridge, authorities said.
Scott's death was being investigated as a suicide, Los Angeles County Coroner's Lt. Joe Bale said.
The 68-year-old Scott jumped from the Vincent Thomas Bridge spanning San Pedro and Terminal Island in Los Angeles, authorities said.
U.S. Coast Guard Lt. Jennifer Osburn told the Daily Breeze that a suicide note was found inside Scott's black Toyota Prius, which was parked on one of the eastbound lanes of the bridge.
The British-born Scott was producer Ridley Scott's brother.

Septic shock is a serious condition that occurs when a body-wide infection leads to dangerously low blood pressure.
Alternative Names
Bacteremic shock; Endotoxic shock; Septicemic shock; Warm shock
Septic shock occurs most often in the very old and the very young. It may also occur in people with weakened immune systems.
Any type of bacteria can cause septic shock. Fungi and (rarely) viruses may also cause the condition. Toxins released by the bacteria or fungi may cause tissue damage. This may lead to low blood pressure and poor organ function. Some researchers think that blood clots in small arteries cause the lack of blood flow and poor organ function.
The body has a strong inflammatory response to the toxins that may contribute to organ damage.
Risk factors for septic shock include:
- Diseases of the genitourinary system,
biliary system, or intestinal system
- Diseases that weaken the immune system, such as AIDS
- Indwelling catheters (those that remain in place for extended periods, especially intravenous lines and urinary catheters and plastic and metal stents used for drainage)
- Leukemia
- Long-term use of antibiotics
- Lymphoma
- Recent infection
- Recent surgery or medical procedure
- Recent use of steroid medications
- Solid organ or bone marrow transplantation
Septic shock can affect any part of the body, including the heart, brain, kidneys, liver, and intestines. Symptoms may include:
- Cool, pale arms and legs
- High or very low temperature, chills
- Light-headedness
Little or no urine
- Low blood pressure, especially when standing
- Palpitations
- Rapid heart rate
- Restlessness,
agitation, lethargy, or confusion
- Shortness of breath
- Skin rash or discoloration
Exams and Tests
Blood tests may be done to check for:
- Infection around the body
- Low blood oxygen level
- Disturbances in the bodys acid-base balance
- Poor organ function or organ failure
Other tests may include:
- A chest x-ray to look for pneumonia or fluid in the lungs (pulmonary edema)
- A urine sample to look for infection
Additional studies, such as blood cultures, may not become positive for several days after the blood has been taken, or for several days after the shock has developed.
Septic shock is a medical emergency. In most cases, people are admitted to the intensive care unit of the hospital.
Treatment may include:
- Breathing machine (mechanical ventilation)
- Dialysis
- Drugs to treat low blood pressure, infection, or blood clotting
- Fluids given directly into a vein (intravenously)
- Oxygen
- Sedatives
- Surgery
The pressure in the heart and lungs may be checked. This is called hemodynamic monitoring. This can only be done with special equipment and intensive care nursing.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Septic shock has a high death rate. The death rate depends on the patients age and overall health, the cause of the infection, how many organs have failed, and how quickly and aggressively medical therapy is started.
Possible Complications
Respiratory failure,
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Go directly to an emergency department if you develop symptoms of septic shock.
Prompt treatment of bacterial infections is helpful. However, many cases of septic shock cannot be prevented.

Now if that is the case, I will be the first to say if we do end up with Haruto and Shoko then I'm perfectly fine with that. I got no problem with any pairing as long as it doesn't come off as forced to me.
And if that is what we get, then it can't be worse than Amata and Mikono.

The three-legged raven and moon is the symbol of the Valvraves and by association, the Magius. Remember that VVV1 was found the way it is and the JIOR military copied it to make the others. I'm guessing it already had the symbol on it and JIOR decided to put it on all the rest as well. So, because of this, I'd say that this is the Magius' empire and that's why their symbol is everywhere.

Hmm, this time, we finally see the weaker side of L-11. And I think he might require an upgrade to match up to his former teacher. Maybe of the immortal variety?
And it's now obvious that having a Valvrave isn't the only way one can become an immortal magic vampire. So, see you in the future L-elf!

I believe she is in the enemy capital because the boy clearly only has a vague idea of what Earth is. He also said the Earth was at the very end of the galaxy. If Saki was in the human capital, I can assure that such capital would be located in Earth (only 200 years have passed). If she was at the alien's capital, referring to Earth as a far away planet, makes much more sense.

I'm pretty pleased with how many of my speculations actually happened.
My key points were... Module 77 is toast. Cain successfully captures a Valvrave for his personal use. Akira and/or Takahi also get a Valvrave. Saki's answer to Haruto is "no". Shoko survives (unless there's a timeskip within the episode itself).
I correctly called Cain getting a Valvrave, Akira getting a Valvrave, and Saki answering with "no". Meanwhile, Module 77 may or may not be toast (since we have a Code Geass-esque cliffhanger ending here) and Shoko probably will survive beyond this episode at least. 4/5 and a maybe - Not bad!
To be fair, my more specific speculations were much more hit and miss (mostly miss ) but I'm glad I got some of the big stuff right. The biggest surprise for me is that I figured at least a couple named characters would die, but unless that happened off-screen, that's a "no". Still, because of the Code Geass-esque cliffhanger they went with here, it's possible we'll still get such character death - Just in the 1st episode of Season 2.
What I really liked about this episode:
1. Cain. Cain is the best military-based villain I've seen since Kane. After Cain got shot at by Haruto's Valvrave, I imagined Dorssian soldiers shouting "Cain lives in death! Cain lives in death! Cain lives in death!"
Ah, but due to Magius powers...
Cain (to massive Dorssian cheers): Cain LIVES!!!
Awesome, awesome antagonist. I loved how he totally pwned L-Elf in one-on-one combat. That was a real surprise!
2. Shouko. Have to give the girl credit. Her attempt to save Akira was truly valiant and impressive to watch. And it worked!
3. Haruto. He took marriage proposal rejection like a boss. I liked the buddy cop routine between him and L-Elf, where L-Elf keeps getting hilariously shocked over how practical Haruto's suggestions are.
4. Dorssia's "Burn, Baby Burn!" strategy. Very clever. And it actually makes some sense! Made the Valvrave fighting much more engaging and fun to watch.
5. Future Saki. She looks gorgeous!
6. Satomi. He didn't do much, but I liked how he put personal pride and ego aside to reach out to a person that he must feel some resentment towards (given how he lost the election to her, and how she's become closer to his sister than he is). He swallowed his pride to plead with Shoko to save his sister.
7. Akira. Her part in the story may have been a touch overdone, but becoming a Valvrave pilot is a big deal. Given how Cain was totally stealing the spotlight this episode, its impressive they found enough time to make Akira's own Valvrave piloting seem dramatic and gripping.
8. Tentatively, the big plot twists. I don't know how all these reveals will play out, but they certainly made this episode even more fun and exciting than it already was. I loved how Cain's male-OS is considered OS-Tan's brother.
What I didn't like:
1. Code Geass-style cliffhanger ending. It makes things a little less satisfying for me.
2. No confirmed named character death. That's a touch gutless for a finale, but admittedly Valvrave mostly made up for it elsewhere.
On the whole, I give it 8/10. One point taken off for each of my two negatives. It's definitely a 10/10 aside from them.

This...was....BEYOND AWESOME!
I think I squeed in my seat the whole time.
That future time skip said so much and yet so little.
I also interpreted Saki's words to refer to Haruto as the "first of us/founder" person. What is unclear to me anyway is whether Haruto and Co. or the Magius start the 3rd Galactic Reich. Her line about it starting with a module could mean many things.
That kid, for all we know he could be ALL of the Valvrave pilots great or great great grandchild, I mean it IS 211 years in the future.
And yes it seems to be confirmed that the AI's appear to be some type of entity that can be transferred into a Valvrave.
Arus' President is also a Magius! Didn't see that one coming, kind of makes you wonder why he didn't side with Dorssia. Cain did say they worked from the shadows so maybe he's just bidding his time or will pull some oh no we got taken over schtick to keep things from looking to obvious.
Akira's backstory was painful to watch, but her overcoming it was awesome. I laughed so hard when she yelled Supermarket and jumped out of her little home. Her Valvrave is totally awesome.
Seeing L-Elf get his butt handed to him by Cain was more fun to watch then it probably should have been. I love how Cain pretty much pays Haurto no mind as he tried to hold him off.
The preview for the next episode, man it's going to be a long 3 months.

As Expected, SOPA Supporters Hate More Reasonable Alternative
from the of-course-they-do dept
Of course, this really proves the key point that many have been making. SOPA/PIPA have never been about taking down truly rogue sites. If so, supporters of those bills would embrace a proposal that really does focus on such sites. Instead, they're about very broad internet regulation that allows the entertainment industry to try to regain control over a market that they no longer control. The entertainment industry wants SOPA/PIPA because they don't know how -- or don't want to learn -- to innovate based on the internet today. So, instead, they're seeking regulations that basically let them attack anything they don't understand or don't control. When legislation comes along that narrowly focuses on the specific issue, it doesn't serve that purpose, so of course they hate it.
Still, it pretty much reveals their true views, to react so negatively to a plan that does what they claimed they wanted. It proves that's not what they wanted at all.

Within the past 24 hours, several ATVs have been stolen throughout the parish and the Sheriff's office is searching for information regarding the person or persons behind the thefts.
"Five ATVs have been taken from residences on Shelton Road, Naff Street, Pleasant Drive and Oklahoma," Sheriff Mike Tubbs said. "While we were able to recover three of these, we are still looking for a 2005 red Honda Rubikon and a 2013 Honda Ranger."
Investigators are also looking for a Yamaha KLX140 dirt bike, which was taken from Lyndanne Road. The bike is lime green in color and has a skull sticker on the back fender and a Bone Collector sticker on the front of the bike, near the gas cap. The bike is worth approximately $3,000.
A residential burglary on Pinehurst Street is also being investigated. Taken from the home were three TVs, a chainsaw and a pistol.
Anyone with any information in any of the above felony cases or any other felony case may call Crimestoppers at 281.0050, the Bastrop Police Department at 281.1322 or the Morehouse Parish Sheriff's Office at 281.4141. Crimestoppers will pay up to $2,000 for any information in a felony case and all calls are confidential.

OpenVPN & LZO for the PPC LinkStation
This article Based on work by frontalot and andre. Originally by andre. at Linkstationwiki.org
OpenVPN[1][2] is a virtual private network (VPN) package for creating point-to-point encrypted tunnels between host computers. It was written by James Yonan.
It allows peers to authenticate to each other using a preshared private key, certificates, or username/password. It makes extensive use of the OpenSSL encryption library, and uses the SSLv3/TLSv1 protocol. It is available on Linux, xBSD, Mac OSX, and Windows 2000/XP. It offers a wealth of security and control features. It is not a "web-based" VPN, and is not compatible with IPsec or any other VPN package. The entire package consists of one binary for both client and server connections, an optional configuration file, and one or more key files depending on the authentication method used.
Another method for VPN is PPTP.
OpenVPN implementation
- Encryption - OpenVPN uses the OpenSSL library to provide encryption of both the data and control channels. It lets OpenSSL do all the encryption and authentication work, allowing OpenVPN to use all the ciphers available in the OpenSSL package. It can also use the HMAC packet authentication feature to add an additional layer of security to the connection (referred to as an "HMAC Firewall" by the creator). It can also use hardware acceleration to get better encryption performance.
- Authentication - OpenVPN has several ways to authenticate peers to one another. OpenVPN offers preshared secret key, certificate-based, and username/password-based authentication. Preshared secret key is the easiest, with certificate based being the most robust and feature-rich. The username/password is a new feature (version 2.0) that can be used with or without a client certificate (the server still needs a certificate).

- Networking - OpenVPN multiplexes all communications over a single IP port. It can run over UDP (preferred, and default) or TCP. It has the ability to work through most proxy servers (including HTTP) and is good at working through NAT and getting out through firewalls. The server configuration has the ability to "push" certain network configuration options to the clients. These include IP addresses, routing commands, and a few connection options. OpenVPN offers two types of interfaces for networking via the Universal Tun/Tap driver. It can create either a layer-3 based IP tunnel, or a layer-2 based Ethernet "tap" that can carry any type of Ethernet traffic. OpenVPN can optionally use the LZO compression library to compress the data stream. IANA assigned port 1194 as the official port number for OpenVPN. Newer versions of the program now default to that port. A feature in the 2.0 version allows for one process to manage several simultaneous tunnels, as opposed to the original "one tunnel per process" restriction on the 1.x series. OpenVPN's use of common network protocols (TCP and UDP) makes it a desirable alternative to IPsec in situations where an ISP may block specific VPN protocols in order to force users to subscribe to a higher-priced, "business grade," service tier.
- Security - OpenVPN offers several internal security features. It runs in userspace, instead of requiring IP stack (and therefore kernel) operation. OpenVPN has the ability to drop root privileges, use mlockall[3] to prevent swapping sensitive data to disk, and enter a chroot jail after initialization.

As I said before - I don't view this as an argument and I never will. The main reason being is I am getting valuable information out of this discussion; conversation; debate. I wouldn't say our opinions are totally opposite, just differentiating in some ways.
I won't say close minded, just set in my opinion like yourself. Rarely anything annoys me, so it'd be hard for me to really comment on what does. Notice I put childish in quotations, which necessary doesn't mean I think it's childish, it's just the best word I could come up to describe her voice at that moment in time, and really, I believe what I was trying to say was the voice in correlation with her personality. Impatient and straight forward - I guess the childish part was from the impatience aspect. This isn't even about Birdy - I was trying to use her as an example to compare the two actresses' portrayals of said character and this is why I never do. The main point I was trying to make got derailed somewhere along the line and it was: wait until the dub is actually makes it all the way through to the end before writing it off, and most people don't do that before saying it's bad. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you seem to think (or know?) that when most Japanese voice actors and actresses utter each and every line they don't become even a little inconsistent over time or have difficulty with their roles? 99.9% is too hard to believe - perhaps 80-94%?
If you were good at Japanese you should have said something earlier and I would have changed my thoughts accordingly, but then again my thoughts are apparently jumbled.
The thing with Japanese voice actors is that yes, the amount of inconsistencies in their performance is minimal, atleast with professional voice actors. Not saying that ''Their voices are surely 100% consistent''. Because I don't know. I haven't seen all of the animes, and I'm not searching for mistakes in their voices. The voices feel natural for the characters, and their voices manage to fit the characters for the most part (I've seen animes where the japanese voice actors haven't been able to fit the characters looks, but that's because of the awful style.)
What does annoy me is when the Japanese voice actors try to talk in English with a horrible English accent. And I think that's the only thing that I've been annoyed by.
Awake and kicking...
Most of the episodes I watched dubbed didnt have Gilgamesh in it, but finally I saw an episode where he was talking to Kirie. I'll say this, his voice is more fitting than the Gilgamesh from Stay/Night and UBW (english dub that is). But he did get mongrel right. The one from UBW hardly said it and when he did, it sucked. So it isnt all bad. If and when the Blu Rays come out, I'll probably get them and rewatch it dubbed (or at least try to).
I think the dub cast sounded amazing and wouldnt change anything.
yeah me neither ... i can't stand any english dubs
The dub's okay.
I still prefer subbed anime though.
I'm curious, how did they manage to translate black key as blade?
It's not like they're netsu and jonetsu(fever and passion).
Not as bad as i thought it would be, but generally its still bad
Now this is a fairly old thread right? Right? Oh well, opinion throwing time.
Now, while I've no language preference, I have grown a voice actor preference.
Fate/Zero's rider is voice by Akio Otsuka, who rates absurdly high on my Japanese Voice Actor's list. If he's in it, I'm totally going going for it.
And as others have said, Kotomine's japanese voice is just perfection. I think they created Fate/Zero just so they could hear him speak again.
Some characters are very difficult to portray, and some actors give above average performances for some. Jamieson Price as Rider? Totally! I love Jamieson Price. But, can he over-play Akio Otsuka? Probably not.
Jamieson is more of a Knight, and Otsuka a Samurai.
Price has the masculine voice, but he's can't sound like a good guy. Otsuka always sounds like a good guy, and he's always playing villains! Otsuka could win any argument BECAUSE HE'S OTSUKA AKIO!
Same goes for James Earl Jones, Morgan Freeman, and Kevin Conroy.
Not every character will have this problem. One Piece is the most striking example to me. I find English Zoro, in both Funimation AND 4Kids' dub to be superior to the Japanese voice, which is generic manly samurai. While Japanese Luffy and Franky are un-replaceable. How does Luffy even DO IT? THAT DAMN VOICE IS JUST HIS!
Then you have characters like Goku, who sounds absurdly different between English, Japanese, and Spanish(YES I GREW UP ON SPANISH DUB'S) But, the character is always in each voice.
Then you have Stiens;Gate which I prefer in English but have no problem with in Japanese and yada yada.
I just want more good English voice actors, ok? Just, MORE FREAKING ACTORS. Mysterious Girlfriend X has a new voice actor Urabe in Japanese, it was strange, new, unique, and exotic. English had to do the same, or it would suck, so they did. Fucking victory.
I'm on a rant, but yeah.
The dub sounded far superior IMO, but that's all it is, my opinion. Just like the entire subs vs. dubs debate.
For me there's just not the same level of emotion and immersion that can be conveyed in a language I don't understand. In my experience it usually comes down to which version a person hears first as to which they prefer.
I watch both subs and dubs but will watch the dub if its available. I think the best English VA's can hold their own with the best Japanese VA's but there's simply not enough top tier English ones in the industry ATM.
Once again it's just my opinion, don't start lighting the pitchforks.
The dub was actually excellent and I'm honestly not sure how anyone could argue otherwise unless they were dropped on their head too many times as a baby.
The Fate/Zero dub was incredibly well done perhaps not to a Bebop level but still a very good portrayal, I did find that Gilgamesh's English voice didn't suit him, not that the actor was bad just didn't suit the character but other than that yes add it to the list of good dubs. But obviously the weeaboos will still say it's bad but then again you have to watch more than a one minute youtube trailer to construct a consistent and non bias opinion.

lol totally, or they have Japanese dicks in their ears.

At least you realize that dude and your not some sub elitist who thinks they are some kind of expert on how a voice actor should portray a character and instead of attempting to enjoy the dub, decide to then scrutinize every possible aspect of the dub while conveniently leaving the Japanese version untouched.
Bjaker is a retarded cunt, who needs some cancer
To answer the question simply, no it wasn't.
But, going from Felstalker's post above, I will say that certain voice actors and actresses do a better job in their interpretations of the characters that they play, such as Crispin Freeman vs. Jouji Nakata. While both are great voice actors, I also think Nakata fits the character of Kotomine better than Freeman, but also on that same note Freeman does a better job as Alucard in Hellsing, since they both play that character as well.
Another is Saber - between the English voice actresses: Kate Higgins (Geneon), Emily Woo Zeller (Animax Asia), Michelle Ruff (Sentai), and Kari Wahlgren (Neon Alley/Viz), I like Higgins's interpretation the most (sounds the most like I envisioned her to sound, that whole noble quality). Wahlgren does a nice job too (maybe a bit deeper would have been better, less soft sounding). Since Sentai dubbed UBW, Saber has a smaller role to play, so I think for the scenes she did have in which she was speaking, Ruff did alright as well, but I'd have to see more to actually judge it. I haven't heard Animax's dub, so I won't comment on that.
Though, out of them all, I like Ayako Kawasumi's interpretation the most. She's been doing Saber since the beginning, so you could say that she is Saber, through and through. There's no topping that.
[No information available]
Most of the English voice are good, but I feel the biggest issues with it come down to the translated script and voice direction. The best performances by far are Saber, Rider, and Kiritsugu. Kiritsugu is all around good. And Saber is good, but I feel she's miscast. Her voice sounds too deep to me, but that's just personal preference. I also really wish that Waiver, Kayneth and Sola all had British accents XD
The weakest links are by far Lancer and Gilgamesh. Most of Lancer's lines sound nearly the same, or completely flat. His death scene in particular doesn't hold a candle to the Japanese version, were the actor actually sounds like he's talking with a spear through his chest.
Gilgamesh is a bit trickier. It does come down to an interpretation of his character. Gilgamesh is typically labeled as being "Arrogant" but I think this is an gross oversimplification of his character. By definition "arrogance' is believing you are greater or more important than you actually are. Gilgamesh does not think or believe he's better than he actually is, Gilgamesh is as awesome as he KNOWS he is, as evidenced by his thorough annihilation of Rider in their final battle.
Gilgamesh is still despicable in many respects. But the Japanese VA had a smoothness, a silkiness if you will, to his voice that made him innately appealing, even if what he was doing was atrocious. Where the English VA just sounds generically "arrogant" in most of his scenes.
In the end, it probably just comes down to a lack of resources. It really feels like neither the translators, voice directors, or voice actors had the time they really needed to make the dub as good as it could have been.
You know what the problem with this question(not this particular one, just the whole SvD thing) is?
everyone is comparing the sub and dub "voice for voice" instead of the quality of the VO itself. dubbing an anime is NOT about making the character sound EXACTLY like the Japanese version. that's not their job. they are voice ACTORS not imitators(ty JYB).
ill be the first to say that there are some AWFUL dubs that ruin some of my favorite shows (DAMN U DXD!!!) but as a whole, duds are not the horrid evil that people(lookin at u crazed Sub fanatics)
now, for the topic at hand, I've not seen all of zero subbed, but I've seen some of it and i read FS/N which uses the say voices(when the same characters actually appear) but i think the zero Dub is great. for the most part, it perfectly captures who the characters are. saber sounds like a valiant knight, rider sounds like the heart of a kingdom(as well as the man of all men) and Gilgamesh sounds like a pompous arrogant asshole. kiritsugu and kirei sound like they're "empty" which kinda is what they characters are meant to be. and my favorite example, ryuunosuke and caster perfect fit the insanity and twistedness of their character.
of course, a large part of this issue is preference, weather u like sub or dub better or have none at all. i like both sub and dub. i'm always more comfortable watching dub, as its the language is speak, as much as i could wish to be/speak Japanese, that's not the case and English is my first and only language( and its nice to be able to get up and get a drink or take a bite of food with out worrying about miss some subs). but of course none of that stops me from loving and watching subs as well(kinda hard not to as everything i was it subbed only hahahaha)
the main thing is learning to not be bias/hateful to one are the other. subs are great and....some dubs are great..or good...or shit lol.
its not about how the match up to one another, but how well they match the actual characters.
the one thing you must remember is almost none of these characters even had a voice to begin with, there was no sub or dub, they were words on a page, thats it. the subs are just as much an interpretation of that as the dubs are.

Joining a growing chorus of local officials voicing confidence in the Flat Rock Playhouse, the county's Tourism Development Authority agreed Tuesday to purchase $25,000 worth of 2013 season tickets for use as incentives to put "heads in beds" at local hotels, cottages and bed-and-breakfasts.
Joining a growing chorus of local officials voicing confidence in the Flat Rock Playhouse, the county's Tourism Development Authority agreed Tuesday to purchase $25,000 worth of 2013 season tickets for use as incentives to put "heads in beds" at local hotels, cottages and bed-and-breakfasts.
The authority voted 7-0 to make an upfront purchase of 715 tickets, with the possibility of purchasing $25,000 more next year if the program is successful. Under the program, guests who stay a minimum of two nights at local accommodations will earn one free Playhouse ticket, or two tickets for a four-night stay.
For the Playhouse, the program will provide a much-needed infusion of cash, authority members said, while helping local accommodations draw more tourists and keep them around longer.
"This is a guarantee of so many ticket sales that are in their budget," said Chairman David Nicholson. "They'll know that they're going to sell that many tickets in advance, and that's a plus for them."
But authority members also made it clear their decision was a symbolic "vote of confidence," said Hendersonville representative Bo Ferguson, who maintained the authority has a "leadership responsibility" to keep the Playhouse's economic engine humming.
According to the Playhouse's 2013 business plan, the nonprofit theater created an estimated $10 million in local economic impact in 2012 and generates around $1.2 million annually for local accommodations.
The authority's decision comes less than a week after the Flat Rock Village Council voted to give the struggling Playhouse $100,000 more this year toward paying down its debt, and nearly three weeks after county Commissioner Larry Young — a vocal critic of Playhouse finances — endorsed releasing $50,000 in frozen county funds.
Tourism board members spent nearly half an hour debating the logistics of how the tickets should be distributed to accommodations and redeemed by lodgers, but ultimately decided to leave those details for Travel & Tourism Director Beth Carden, a tourism committee and Playhouse leaders to work out.
"The key is to make it as simple for us and the Playhouse as possible," Carden said.
The program's original framework, proposed in a motion by Nicholson, was a "pay-as-you-go" model, where accommodations would contact the Playhouse directly with ticket requests as lodging reservations were made. But board members said they preferred to purchase the tickets upfront, since that would immediately generate funds for the theater.
Nicholson said his only hesitation about buying the tickets upfront was that, "as a public body, what if it's not a successful program?"
"I don't think you're going to have a problem moving 715 tickets among all the accommodations in Henderson County," said board member Kathy Kanupp, who manages several area motels.
Ferguson added that paying for the tickets upfront also sends a stronger message.
"I feel like there's a nuance between 'We'll pay for the tickets as the interest comes in,' versus 'We'll pay for the tickets,' " he said. "I feel like that's a change that serves not just (the Playhouse's planning), but it also puts us on record as saying, 'We're in. We're in for this amount of money. We may be in for more.' And I think that's something we need to say."
Vincent Marini, the Playhouse's executive director, told board members the Playhouse recently achieved "Gem status" with the American Automobile Association, a designation the travel group judges to be "of exceptional interest and quality." The distinction should help the Playhouse continue to grow its group tour numbers and put more heads in beds, Marini said.
Camp director Robert Danos, one of several local businessmen who have championed the Playhouse's economic importance in recent months, told the board the Playhouse is the only AAA destination to earn "Gem" status in Henderson County.
"It should have a much larger spillover effect for all of us," he said.
While supportive of helping the Playhouse, Kanupp said the theater company needs to work on fostering better relationships with some accommodations.
"This year, I had to beg, borrow and steal to get any kind of information from you to give to our guests," she said.
Marini pledged to work to broaden the distribution of promotional materials.

Two Groton Town police officers promoted
Groton - Groton Town police officials on Monday recognized two recently promoted officers and held a ceremonial swearing-in for two newly minted police officers.
Bridget Nordstrom, a 16-year-veteran, was promoted to the rank of investigator in November and is now assigned to the special services division. Previously assigned to the patrol division, she served as a community policing officer and field training officer and was assigned to the bike patrol and traffic unit. She has also worked with the Statewide Narcotics Task Force, the Groton Narcotics Unit and a specialized federal task force targeting narcotics and guns.
Nordstrom has twice been awarded the department's Drug Interdiction Award and is a 2012 recipient of a U.S. Attorney's Award.
Nordstrom is trained in crime scene processing and interviewing and received specialized training for interviewing child victims. She is also a certified D.A.R.E. instructor.
Officer David Miner was promoted to the rank of patrol sergeant in May. Hired in 2004, Miner has served as a field training officer and community policing officer. He has also served with the Statewide Narcotics Task Force, the Groton Narcotics Unit and a specialized federal task force targeting heroin and cocaine sales in the region.
Police on Monday welcomed Officers Eric Korte weg and Joshua Teft. Both were hired on March 27 and have graduated from the 22-week program of the Connecticut Police Officer Standards and Training basic recruitment class at the state police academy. They have since completed a 16-week field training program.
Korteweg is lifelong resident of Groton and graduate of Robert E. Fitch Senior High School. He earned a bachelor's degree in criminal justice with a minor in psychology from Liberty University in Lynchburg, Va. At the academy, he was awarded the Connecticut State Police TFC Allan Tuskowski Award for Excellence for achieving the highest overall performance.
Teft is from Preston and a graduate of Three Rivers Community College, where he earned a degree in criminal justice.

This section of our website is designed to answer some of the common questions parents and families have about the Maxine Dunitz Children's Health Center and Pediatric Services at Cedars-Sinai.
Questions about Children Staying in the Ahmanson Pediatric Center at Cedars-Sinai
- Can I stay with my child?
- Where can I eat while my child is in the hospital?
- Is my brother or sister going to be okay?
Questions about Babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)
- When is my baby going home?
- What is my baby's weight today?
- Can I hold my baby?
- When can my baby have a bottle?
- When can I breastfeed my baby?
Can I stay with my child?
Yes, parents can stay with their children in the Maxine Dunitz Children's Health Center. We encourage that to help reduce your child's fears of being in the hospital. We are the only medical center in Los Angeles in which all the pediatric rooms are private, and we have no set visiting hours.
Where can I eat while my child is in the hospital?
There are a number of places to get food in the hospital or in the surrounding area. For more information about ordering a meal tray or places to eat in and around the hospital, visit the dining section of our website.
Is my brother or sister going to be okay?
When a child has a brother or sister in the hospital, it can be a time of great anxiety. Both children in the hospital and their brothers and sisters may respond in similar ways. Some of the ways that you can deal with your child's fears and give them more security are listed in our For Patients section.
When is my baby going home?
You should consult your baby's physician about how long your baby will be in the NICU.
What is my baby's weight today?
A baby's weight and how quickly he or she gains weight after birth are key indicators of health and the ability to thrive. In our Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, we use Omnibeds, which have built-in scales so that babies can be weighed without having to be moved. Your baby's weight is recorded in his or her chart every 12 hours. If you want to see your baby's weight, you should ask the nurse.
Can I hold my baby?
We encourage parents to hold their infants in the NICU. Talk with the nurse to see if your baby is ready to be held.
When can my baby have a bottle?
After their initial illness, many infants are put on feedings. These feedings are started very slowly. Initially, your baby may not be ready to feed from the bottle or breast. In this case your baby will be fed through a small tube placed through the nose into the infant's stomach. As your baby begins to bottle feed, we would encourage you to be present and participate in these feedings. Soon you will be feeding your baby on your own.
When can I breastfeed my baby?
Moms who plan to breastfeed will be able to put their baby to breast many days before going home. We have lactation specialists who will help you learn how to breastfeed your infant.
