Plot Overview Edit
The Simon Famiglia Arrives EditThe Inheritance Ceremony Arc begins one month after the end of the Future Final Battle Arc. Reborn received a message from the Ninth and informed Tsuna that in a week, the Inheritance Ceremony would take place, establishing Tsuna as Vongola Decimo. At the same time seven new transfer students from Simon Middle School arrived due to earthquake warnings in their area. In no time Adelheid Suzuki was attempting to take over Hibari's Discplinary committee and Gokudera began stalking P. Shitt (who he believed was a U.M.A). On his way back from school Tsuna and one of the transfer students Enma Kozato were beaten up by bullies. At this time Tsuna felt his Vongola Ring resonate with something prompting Reborn to investigate the Simon. Meanwhile Ryohei got into a fight with Koyo Aoba during detention, Yamamoto became friendly with Kaoru Mizuno during baseball practice, and Juile Katou began stalking Chrome. Finding Enma, on the way home Tsuna noticed how similar he was to old self before he met Reborn. The next day at school, Adelheid and Hibari fought on the roof so Tsuna, along with his guardians and the other Simon students gathered to stop the fight. Reborn then revealed that the Simon were in fact another Mafia Famiglia, known as friends of Vongola Primo and been invited as guests to Tsuna's Inheritance Ceremony. After school Tsuna discussed his misgivings over becoming the Vongola Boss with Enma who recommended he run away. At this point however a hitman from the Pesca Famiglia arrived in an attempt to kill Tsuna and to interfere with the upcoming Inheritance Ceremony but Tsuna defeated him easily. After finding this out Gokudera called for a gathering between the Simon Famiglia and the Vongola Famiglia and split everyone into groups to protect Tsuna. During the next few days Reborn observed the Simon Famiglia noting Koyo and Ryohei finally working together, Karou regaining his confidence thanks to Yamamoto and P. Shitt communicating with Gokudera. Julie also asked Chrome on a date but was rejected. At around the same time the Giegue Famiglia had found the location of the group that was trying to interfere with the Inheritance Ceremony at an abandoned factory. Although they tried to take them out for the Vongola, they were killed by a mysterious female fighter who possessed a new flame type. Meanwhile unsure of Tsuna's true motives Enma decided to test him, writing a note for Tsuna asking for his help, but unfortunately it was blown into the bin by accident and Enma was left waiting alone.
Tsuna went for a meeting with the Ninth (who had arrived in Japan with his Guardian's) who told him that Tsuna had the potential to destroy the corruption of the Vongola and return it to the ways of the first Famiglia, a vigilante group. Despite this, Tsuna refused to become the new boss as he didn't want to involve his friends. Later, Yamamoto was brutally attacked by Kaoru after seeing a slip of paper with the Vongola crest crossed out. He was found by Ryohei and taken to the hospital but was left in a coma. The only clue was the word Sin which Yamamoto wrote in blood which Reborn stated would be given to Tsuna during the Ceremony suggesting the assailant would attack then. Filled with anger Tsuna decided to go ahead with the ceremony in order to lure them out.
Inheritance Ceremony Edit
The Tenth's Guardians arrive at the ceremony and reunite with Naito Longchamp, Dino, and the Varia – except for Xanxus. The Simon Famiglia is also present, and they are surprised at seeing Yamamoto there and well.During the passing of the Vongola Sin, the Simon intervene and cause the Ninth to drop the Sin. He reassures Tsuna that it was merely a fake, and that the real Sin was inside a foolproof safe in another room. Just then, Enma reveals that he has broken into the safe and taken the Sin. He drips it onto his hand, which then transforms into a gauntlet. He reveals the story between Giotto and Cozarto Simon, and declares that he will bring the Simon Famiglia back to its former glory for that. The other six members then get the Sin onto their hands, and reveal their hidden power, said to rival the Vongola's Seven Sky Flames – the Seven Earth Flames.
Afterwards, Tsuna enters Hyper Dying Will Mode, but before he gets a chance to do anything, Enma uses his powers to crush Hibari, Gokudera, Chrome and Ryohei with ease, also revealing Yamamoto to be an illusion. Enma then proceeds to announce he only hasn't attacked Tsuna to make him experience the pain of Simon, and breaks the Vongola Rings of Sun, Cloud, Mist and Storm. Tsuna then attacks Enma, causing a reaction on their respective Rings, but he is overpowered. Adelheid then announces that Enma's powers will take seven days to reach full power, and thus Enma is only using a seventh of it, to the shock of both Reborn and Tsuna. After overwhelming Dino and the Varia, and finally breaking the Vongola Ring of Sky, the Simon take their leave with Julie taking Chrome saying they have date plans.
When Tsuna and his Guardians feel helpless, a mysterious old man who seemed to be an acquaintance of the Ninth arrives. He also seems to have known Primo. His name is revealed to be Talbot. Talbot asks Tsuna if he is ready to bring the rings back, even with the risk of destroying the rings. Tsuna agrees to this, and Talbot talks to Ninth, requesting a room to himself. He upgrades the broken rings with the box weapons and Vongola Primo's blood, Penalty. Upon upgrading the Vongola rings, they looked nothing more than rocks. Talbot then says that the rocks have to be injected with an extreme amount of Dying Will. Tsuna, Gokudera, Ryohei and Hibari successfully unlock the powers of their respective rings, bringing forth the Sky Ring, the Storm Buckle, the Sun Bangle and the Cloud Bracelet.
Following this, Tsuna and his Guardians—minus Yamamoto and Chrome—along with the Ninth and his Guardians and Varia, discuss the whereabouts of the Simon Famiglia's hideout. One of the Ninth's guardians discovers the location of the Simon base, via the private letter that Cozarto Simon sent to the Vongola Primo, Giotto. Tsuna requests from the Ninth permission to allow him and his Guardians to invade the Simon hideout alone. Squalo protests, saying that the current situation is a mafia war – to which Tsuna replies that it is a fight for his friends. Timoteo agrees to let Tsuna and his Guardians to invade the Simon hideout, preparing three ships for them.
Tsuna and his Guardians return to the Sawada household to prepare for the assault. But on the way, Tsuna stumbles across Kyoko and Haru at a shop. Reborn asks him if he wants to greet them. Tsuna hestitates, unsure since he doesn't want to involve them in battle again. He gives the girls a silent goodbye and runs off to go to his house. Upon arriving, Tsuna discovers that he received a letter and package from the present Irie, who received memories of the future battles from Yuni. The package contained the new headphones created by the present Spanner, who also received memories from Yuni.
The Battles of Pride & The Seven Keys EditTsuna and the others arrive at the Simon Famiglia's Island. They are immediately greeted by the Simon Famiglia. Enma comments that Tsuna's Guardians arrived faster than expected, and that they made the right choice to come alone, saying the island cannot contain mountains of corpses. The two Famiglias were interrupted by the Vindice, who claim to have come to fulfill the promise between Vongola Primo, Giotto, and Simon Primo, Cozarto. Because of Giotto and Cozarto's steadfast friendship, the Famiglias are forbidden to fight each other. According to the Vindice, this is the second time this law has been breached, and thusly, the Guardians must battle each other, with the loser imprisoned in Vendicare Prison forever.
Following this warning, the Vindice disappear. Without much of a choice, both Famiglias agree to fight. Adelheid explains that they seek only one goal, and Enma explains that the Simon Famiglia's history is engraved in the island. One by one, the Vongola Guardians must head for the goal, where Enma will be waiting. As Enma and his Guardians prepare to leave, Tsuna unleashes his Vongola Gear, challenging Enma on the spot. Enma smiles, commenting that Tsuna has grown more capable, and that he will await him with bated breath.
Ryohei Sasagawa vs Koyo Aoba Edit
- Battle Result: Draw
The First Key EditAfter Ryohei and Koyo collapsed, Tsuna, Gokudera and Reborn rushed to their side to provide medical attention. However, the Vindice intervened, declaring that since both combatants lost, they were both to be imprisoned in the Vendicare Prison. Before being taken away, Ryohei explained that he had no regrets with following his pride to the end. When Tsuna exclaimed that he didn't know if he had any pride Ryohei assured him that he had felt it and told Tsuna to find it and follow it. At that moment the Vindice dragged him and Koyo through a portal ignoring Tsuna's cries of protest. After this, Vendicare gave them a small bag and told them it was the first key that was entrusted by Giotto and Cozarto. Along with the bag, the Vindice show each of the members of the Simon and Vongola Families the memories of Vongola Primo and Simon Primo. Giotto was shown calling out to Cozarto, saying that he dropped his wallet at Paolo's shed. Cozarto replied that he intended to drop it because he could not stand to see Paolo and his families starve. Giotto revealed that he and G. also did the same thing, leaving food for Paolo. Giotto, Cozarto, and G. shared a hearty laugh, introducing themselves to each other and ending the memory. Somewhere inside a room, Chrome woke up after seeing Giotto and Cozarto's memory. She saw a silhouette of a man resembling Mukuro standing by the terrace but it is revealed to be Katou Julie. Chrome asked Julie where she was to which Julie explained the situation. Chrome noticed her trident lying on top of a dresser, and reached out to grab it, is interrupted by Julie, who offers her a new change of clothing, and even offers to help her change. Chrome refused, but Julie was persistent. Adelheid then entered the room all of a sudden, informing Julie of a meeting with the other Simon Guardians. On the way, Adelheid commented she will kill Chrome once she was of no longer use to them as a hostage. As Adelheid and Julie arrived at the meeting place, they discuss the battle between Koyo and Ryohei, and also the memory given by the Vindice. Julie makes clear that he is uninterested, so long as they win. Julie turns to leave, but is stopped by Adelheid, who told him that it is his responsibility to remain involved with the battle against Vongola. Julie, visibly annoyed, grabs Adelheid's jaw telling her to keep quiet. However, Julie changes his demeanor, cheerfully stating that there is nothing to worry about, as he will help if things go bad.
Meanwhile, the Vindice tell Tsuna and his Guardians that the seven keys were entrusted by Giotto and Cozarto, and, along with another memory, will be awarded upon another loss. Tsuna realized that there will be a continuation of Giotto and Cozarto's memories, and as such, decided to follow through with the battles. On the way, Reborn realized that Tsuna still thinking about Ryohei and told him if he gave up now, Ryohei's efforts would be wasted. Tsuna said that he didn't even know his own pride but Reborn told him that he can figure it out later, for now concentrate only on winning to save Chrome and reveal the truth behind Giotto and Cozarto. Noticing that it was almost dark, Tsuna and the others decided to camp. While they were asleep, Lambo was awakened by a rabbit in front of him and chased after it and falling into a pitfall. Tsuna and Gokudera also fell to the pitfall and found themselves in a cave surrounded by rocks. In the middle of the cave, Lambo encountered Rauji.
Lambo vs Rauji Ooyama Edit
- Winner: Lambo
The Second Key EditWhile everyone congratulated Lambo for his victory, Rauji began to yell that even though he lost, Simon will never lose because Enma will avenge him. He explained that Enma is better boss than Tsuna because he protected his families from the ally families of Vongola who killed the current Simon Famiglia's parents. The Vendicare then appeared behind Rauji and chained him as they gave them a flower that was the second key the left by Giotto and Cozarto.
Vongola and Simon began to witness again the memory of Giotto and Cozarto. At some poor town in Italy, Giotto, G., and Cozarto arrived at a flower shop that was attacked by some thugs because the owner, Franco, refused to gave them 90% off and all doctors in town were threatened by them and didn't show up. This angered Giotto who stated that he had enough already. Cozarto then suggested forming a Vigilante group because if nobody can help them, they have to protect the town themselves with a powerful leadership that no one else beside Giotto who suit for that role.After they witnessed the memory, they were shocked to find out that it was Cozarto who suggested to form Vigilante group that became the core of Vongola Famiglia. Rauji showed his disbelieve but Gokudera interrupted that only a great person will be chosen as Vongola and pointed out that Rauji himself was beaten by one of the Vongola guardians. This angered Rauji and he then asked Lambo if Tsuna is a good boss, which Lambo answered that he never thought of Tsuna as his boss, however, he stated that Tsuna is a great Brother. Before Rauji was taken by the vendicare, he stated that he could never forgive Vongola but he accepted Lambo, said that it was fun. Lambo then turned back to his younger self and Tsuna and the others relieved that he won the match. Back at Japan, at Namimori hospital, Byakuran came to the unconscious Yamamoto on the hospital bed with his wings spread out open.
Later, at Simon's meeting room, Julie came and playfully said that he heard Rauji was defeated, this made him being scolded by Adelheid. Julie then commented that Kaoru will not fight since he had beat up Yamamoto before ceremony. Adelheid then asked did he get any new information from their spy but Julie replied that they didn't have any information from him. He then dragged Enma to drink some coffee with him so he able to relax. In a different room, Julie then revealed that he actually get some information from the spy and told him about CEDEF being the key of the past of their ancestor and showed him a picture of Tsuna's father, Iemitsu. This enraged Enma even more and Julie convinced him that Vongola Primo was a cunning man and already to planned all this from the very beginning and told Enma to sees Vongola as absolute enemy, which Enma agreed to. Julie then thought that all according to his plan.Tsuna, Gokudera, Lambo, and Reborn continued their way to Simon's hideout and reached a deserted, run down town. When they checked the town, they heard a voice from one of the houses that turned out to be Shitt.P who writing her homework. When Gokudera called her, she just ignored him until he called her by her preferred name, "Shittopi-chan" and she finally responded Gokudera's call, much to surprise Tsuna. She then challenged Gokudera to fight one-on-one with her which he agreed to since he was interested on fighting a UMA. When Gokudera was about to tell her his pride, she cut him off and instead revealed his pride herself that Gokudera's pride was being a subordinate of Vongola tenth, which Gokudera admitted. At this, Shitt P commented that Gokudera is weak and revealed her pride is fighting for herself since she loves herself most than anybody else. Gokudera then summoned Uri who seemingly tamed but then slowly began to scratch his face until Gokudera ordered him to Cambio Forma and revealed his Vongola Gear, creating the revival of his former title, "The Smoking Bomb."
Hayato Gokudera vs P. Shitt Edit
- Winner: Gokudera
The Third Key EditThe Vindice then appear and gave the third key which turned out to be a letter. The flashback showed that Cozarto received a letter from Giotto that told him about the Vongola Famiglia that had grown so big that even the police couldn't interfere. However, Giotto worried because many people feared Vongola and the biggest war ever will coming up soon and request for Cozarto's help. After reading the letter, Cozarto decided to help Giotto and said he will come soon.After this flashback, Shitt P, commented that because Cozarto fought for Giotto and was betrayed by him,she decided to live for herself. She was bullied by others and after some time she assured herself that she was right to act as an individual. She then called Gokudera an UMA, much to shock the others but also said that he is interesting and she wished to know more about him. Tsuna then interrupted stating that he will save Ryohei and also other Simon Guardians that were being imprisoned in Vendicare, much to the shock of the others and even Tsuna himself who wondered why he said that. However, Enma then came and said it's none of his business and intended to help Shitt P but Vendicare still took her with them, saying that they won't let anyone interfere. Before being taken away, Shitt P said that Enma is kind and she was glad she joined Simon. Enma then unleashed his Simon ring power with teary eyes, blamed Tsuna for the lost of his friends and everything precious to him. Adelheid and Julie arrived at the scene. Adelheid tried to stop Enma but was stopped by Julie who said that they should let him go. Enma then declared that he will defeat Tsuna right here and right now.
Tsunayoshi Sawada vs Enma Kozato (Round I) Edit
- Battle Result: Enma's ring out of control and he retreated along with Adelheid and Julie.
Daemon Spade's Revelation EditBack at Simon hideout, Chrome attempted to escape but Julie already arrived back there and laughed at her futile attempt. He then said that they get along quite well a whole lot more than Mukuro and also knew about Chrome's past. Chrome is surprised and asked how he knew about Mukuro. He began to reveal that the island had a special defence structure in place and Mukuro's illusions cannot reach her. The reason that Chrome's organs were still functioning well was because he was the one who created it in replacement of Mukuro. Chrome at first didn't want to believe this, stating that she received the body from Mukuro. Julie then tested it by made her organs disappear, which it does, made Chrome's stomach sink and cough blood. He told her that the reason he went that far to help her even though they were enemies was because both Chrome and her body are important to him and then he created back her organs. Julie then offered her to become his, which Chrome quickly refused and said that she don't need the organs that he made, which surprised Julie and decided to tell her his secret: He was the one who devised the entire war between Vongola and Simon for two goals, first to annihilate the Vongola which Enma and Adelheid were already doing their best to accomplish and second is to use Chrome as his entrance to get to Mukuro and take his body. Julie then dismissed his illussions and revealed his true identity as the First Generation Vongola Mist guardian, Daemon Spade and shocked Chrome greatly. He requested Chrome to submit her body by her own will but Chrome refused again and made Daemon no choice but to punish her and proceed to use his right eye that revealed a spade symbol, controlling her mind to make her obey to him.
Back at the Vongola ship, Timoteo asked Ganauche if there any news from Tsuna, which Ganauche replied that there wasn't. Ganauche then suggested Timoteo to sleep since he haven't sleep for four days but Timoteo refused and instead asked about the condition at Namimori hospital but was then interrupted with the arrival of Brow Nie Jr. who got information regarding the Simon Famiglia. He said that all seven members of the Simon had their families killed when they were still very young.
Timoteo then asked if they were persecuted or not, when Brow Nie Jr. said that many cases existed, Timoteo interrupted by saying that he asked wheter they truly persecuted or not. Brow Nie apologized and promised to speed up the information but then said that something was different regarding the cases of Enma's parents and sister. Timoteo asked what it meant and he was reminded about the "Flood of Blood" incident that occurred under CEDEF, which surprised Timoteo as he remembered and was in utter disbelief.At Enma's room, Enma dreamed about his sister while Adelheid stayed by his side as she wondered how Julie got the information regarding Enma's Ring Holders and as she remembered the past, he was not the kind of person who would agitate Enma this much. Before she left, she assured Enma that she will purge the Vongola. On the way to Simon hideout, Lambo asked Tsuna to play with him since he was silent all the way due to the shock he received when Enma revealed to them about his father. Suddenly, a helicopter appeared and flew away and Gokudera used this to cheer up Tsuna but fail. Tsuna then finally spoke, he wasn't sure if he was doing the right thing anymore because he thought that Enma wasn't lying since he could feel his sorrow and sadness through his fist. Reborn then commented that he also thinks that Enma wasn't lying but he also said that even though what Enma said was true Reborn wondered if the Simon really wanted things to turn out this way as he said that when Enma attacked them, something didn't feel right, suspecting there's dark shadow behind Simon.
Meanwhile, at another room in Simon hideout, Chrome changed her clothes to Simon Middle School uniform. Daemon then appeared as he commented that the uniform suited her well. He changed back to Julie as he said that he want to quickly get use to controlling her mind so she should be by his side all the time.
Kyoya Hibari vs Adelheid Suzuki Edit
- Winner: Kyoya Hibari
The Fourth Key Edit
The Vindice appear to arrest Adelheid and to give the fourth key, an inkwell. The fourth key shows Giotto and the others in the middle of meeting regarding the massive mafia war they were in. Knuckle suddenly enters and informs his fellow Guardians that the Simon are surrounded by the enemies from all four directions and are at the center of the enemy's camp. Giotto who is bewildered by this information is confused as to how Cozarto came to know of the war, and intends to rescue his friend without hesitation. However, Daemon Spade assure the Primo that he will be the one to assist the Simon, which Giotto accepts and is relieved by. When the memory ends, everyone realizes that someone has set a trap for Cozarto, since Giotto had never spoken of the Vongola's war to Cozarto. Hibari then realizes someone is watching them and throws his handcuff towards the figure who reveals himself to be Julie along with Chrome. Adelheid asks Julie to take care of Enma, to which Julie agrees but then continues by saying that from now on he will leave his place in Simon Famiglia.After Reborn refers to him as the dark shadow of the Simon, he finally reveals himself as Daemon Spade, much to everyone's shock. Reborn is suspicious of whether or not he is the real Daemon Spade or not, to which Daemon replied by saying that whether they chooses to believe or not, he exists. When Tsuna asks why he's done all that he has, Daemon simply answers it is all for the sake of the Vongola. He states that Giotto was a great leader but lacked of ambition in the mafia world, where power and greed are the only absolute justice. He continued that with Giotto's nature, it would have been impossible to create the flawless Vongola Famiglia and therefore, he would do anything necessary to eliminate anything and anyone that will weaken the Vongola—just like Cozarto and the Simon whom he saw as a threat. Thus admitting that he was the cause of Cozarto Simon's death. Daemon tells of how he used the Simon's dormant power amplified by hatred in order to try and eliminate the tenth boss candidate who would try to succeed Primo's will. This angers Adelheid who then realizes that Julie must still exist and demands Daemon where he is and what he has done to him. However, the first Mist Guardian answers was there is probably a slight bit of "that garbage" left inside him and Adelheid tearfully apologizes to Enma. Daemon comments that the Simon are a bunch of inexperienced children after all. However, at this moment, Kaoru appears and stabs Daemon from behind.
Vongola & Simon vs Daemon Spade (Round I) Edit
- Battle Result:
- Kaoru lost his pride before fight and taken away by Vendicare along with Adelheid.
- Daemon withdraw from the battlefield with Chrome after brief fight with Yamamoto.
The Fifth Key EditAnother Vindice appears behind Kaoru and arrests him, stating that Kaoru already lost his pride before the battle could even start, thus, making him the loser. Kaoru explained that his pride was to do anything for the sake of the Simon. However, to betray Yamamoto, who he sees as his friend, is unbearable to him and he wants to pay for the crimes he has committed and apologizes to Adelheid, for he no longer having any capability to fight the Vongola. Daemon mocks him as trash and useless and then says that thanks to his loss, they are finally able to see a fantastic show. The fifth key is revealed to be a document with a Dying Will Flame on it. Daemon states that the next memory that will be shown is the last moments of Cozarto, who fell into his trap and was killed, his limbs pulled off one by one until his death.
The fifth key showes Daemon along with his subordinates, who have found Cozarto's location. Knowing how persistent Cozarto is, he hands his subordinates a letter with a Dying Flame signed on it to trick Cozarto and the others so that he could kill him when there's an opening. After this, Daemon went back to Vongola mansion, pretending that he was beat up and his subordinates were killed and lies to Giotto that Cozarto was already dead, which upset Giotto and replies that Daemon has done a good job and he's at his debt
At Simon's place, which was surrounded by enemies, Daemon's subordinates arrive, saying that they have come to help them. However, Cozarto knew that they were sent by Daemon to kill him, since he knew that the third letter that he received was fake because the letter was signed "from Primo" and Giotto would never refer himself that to him. Cozarto turns into Hyper Dying Will Mode, stating that he will fight until the end for his friends and his Famiglia. At this, Daemon's subordinates tear apart the letter and reveal themselves as G. and the other Guardians that were ordered to assist them by Giotto, who had seen through Daemon's plan. G. assures Cozarto that the men with him are just like him, Giotto's guardians, and that they can be trusted. G. explains that they could've gone all out but they didn't want Daemon to know that they were saving him and told Cozarto the four guardians would fight the enemies, while he and Cozarto would go to Giotto. Before they go, Cozarto thanks G. and the others. As the memories ended, which revealed that Cozarto had not been killed, it shocks all of the participants, especially Daemon, who then shouts in disbelief that Giotto had saw through his plan. Reborn said that it seems the history of Simon has been rewritten. Tsuna happilly exclaimed that Giotto never betrayed Cozarto and that their friendship never wavered at all. Daemon furiously cursed Giotto, who has faked Cozarto's death, but is interjected by Reborn who wondered if Cozarto had never been assassinated, then why there are no lying records of him afterwards, much to everyones confusion.
Simon Rings Awakening Edit
Daemon, disguised as Julie, approaches Enma at his throne and informs him of Kaoru's and Adelheid's loss at Vongola's hands, enraging Enma further who then finally be consumed by his own hatred. Satisfied that now Enma completely becomes killing machine, Daemon changes back and leaves the task of defeating Tsuna and his friends to him.
In a circular building, Daemon approaches Chrome, whom he had tied up and undone his mind control on her. He assures her that he will let her meet Mukuro, explaining that he will remove the barrier that surrounding Simon Island so that Mukuro can come to save her and he'll be able to fight Mukuro with the awakened Simon Desert Ring. Daemon removes the barrier and Chrome's illusionary organs, taunting Mukuro that Chrome will die if he doesn't come to save her. Shortly, as he has expected, Mukuro replaces Chrome, and declares that he will take Daemon to the realm of dead.
Tsunayoshi Sawada vs Enma Kozato (Round II) Edit
- Winner: Tsuna, Enma was allowed to watch the battle until the end before being imprison.
The Sixth Key EditAfter explaining Daemon's plot, Enma offers to help them to save Chrome, much to Tsuna's happiness and he agrees. At this, Reborn comments that both Tsuna and Enma will be a perfect No-Good combo and Lambo adds that Tsuna is greater No Good out of the two. This causes brief laughter that soon interrupts by the arrival of Vendicare who decides that Enma is the loser of the battle. Tsuna tells them that there's no need for any fight anymore because they no longer has any ill feelings towards each other. However, the vendicare states that the battle will continue until the end because that is the law that had been decided by their ancestors and presents the sixth key, which is a clear pacifier.
The memory revealed that Cozarto requests to Giotto to keep Simon Famiglia has been killed as the truth. Cozarto explains that he has strong feelings that it won't be a simple task to eliminate Daemon Spade and if Daemon continue living, the Simon would only be burden. Therefor, it would be better if Simon just went into hiding and disappear from mafia world and any view, much to Giotto's protest. However, Cozarto insists and convinces him that Simon are not weak. At this, Giotto reluctantly agrees but not before he asks Cozarto to swore in return that the Vongola will always support Simon from the shadow and their bonds will stay close until the end of times. As Cozarto swear this, Bermuda Von Veckenschtein, an Arcobaleno with clear pacifier and a Vindice appeared, intent to unhold the law.
As the memories ends, Reborn questions why the Vindice possess the clear pacifier. When Vendicare refuses to answer this, Reborn groaned, making Tsuna surprise to see for the first time Reborn being bothered by something this clearly.
Mukuro Rokudo vs Daemon Spade Edit
- Winner: Mukuro
Daemon purposely lost the battle with Mukuro and managed to possesses Mukuro's body and frees himself from Vendicare Prison. The Vindice negate the war between Vongola and Simon and strike a deal with both Families that if they able to defeat Daemon, the imprisoned Families members will be released. Daemon arrived in the battlefield and ready to fight Tsuna and his Guardians for one last time.
Final Battle Edit
- Winner: Tsuna
The Seventh Key EditThe key revealed Giotto, Cozarto, and G., met face to face with Bermuda Von Victhenstein with Arcobaleno carrying a clear pacifier who claimed that if Vongola and Simon ever fight one another, the would deliver the punishment. Giotto objected, saying that it has nothing to do with them. The Arcobaleno retorted and replied that the destiny between Vongola and the holder of Arcobaleno pacifiers would always be intertwined, much to Giotto's confusion. Cozarto agreed since he believe that their children won't fight against each other. The Vindice revealed that they will imprison the losers until the day they die. Giotto finally agreed with one condition: After each battle, he wishes for their true history to be shown. Cozarto added that if the each sides still cannot let go the enmity between them even after knowing the true history, the Vindice are free to do anything to them. However, if the both Families reconcile and regain their friendship, if they honor its will, they have to have their Flames within the rings burn as one as evidence of their will to keep the promise.
Conclusion Edit
Tsuna picks up Daemon's pocket watch with old photograph of Vongola Primo's Guardians with a beautiful woman beside Daemon. The dying Daemon tells them that the woman is Elena, his lover. Daemon begins to tells his past and his reason behind all of his actions, revealing that it was all for Elena's sake who loved the Vongola Famiglia more than anything. Tsuna wonders out loud does Elena truly love the Vongola that Daemon had made since it control people through fear without taking the feelings of the weak into consideration and tells Daemon that he understood Elena's feelings when the latter questions him. Tsuna assures Daemon that Elena feels gratitude towards him and she thanked him. Daemon cries as he pleads for Elena's forgiveness for unable to save her and starts to fades away. Reborn convinces him to leave Vongola to Tsuna, and Daemon finally acknowledges Tsuna and his Guardians, entrusting Vongola to them and finally die in peace. The trapped Vongola Guardians and Julie along with imprisoned Simon Guardians and Ryohei are freed and each of them reconciles and Mukuro back to his own body. The Vindice then reveal that they still have one final thing to tell them.
Aftermath Edit
After the battle between the Simon and Vongola ended, Tsuna returns to his normal life at Namimori, rushing to get to school to not get scolded by Hibari, but finds Enma on his way running away from a dog. The two rush across a road and meets up with Shitt P. who is stalking Gokudera, who calls her a freak and runs off in another direction. The No-Good Duo finally reach the gates of Namimori when encountered by Rauji and Lambo, who had been staying up and playing. Rauji told them that the inspection by the disciplinary group was postponed since Hibari goes to Kokuyo Land to fight Mukuro. Tsuna panicks as he thinks that Hibari and Mukuro might as well end up killing each other until Adelheid then scolds them for their uniforms not being tidy, she then reveals Aoba, Ryohei, and Julie, being hung in nets for disrupting the school. Ryohei and Aoba for destroying school property, and Julie for flirting with girls. Kyoko then appears and tells Ryohei to not do anything dangerous because he had received injuries from a meteor. Tsuna states that Ryohei is still making stupid lies to Kyoko. Julie then sees Kyoko and says she cute, which makes Adelheid jealous.

But it turned out to be Kaoru and Yamamoto practicing baseball. Adelheid catches up with them and hangs them in a net on the school's roof. Reborn sees the Duo and remind them about the Eighth Key.
The Eighth Key Edit
The memory begins with a sight of Cozarto's Famiglia's children playing in the river and eating. Then, a little girl called Magi approaches Cozarto and asks if she could have more friends, Cozarto says that she'll have to wait a while. Then a man resembling Julie states once the situation is cooling down they can invite the Vongola Family to their island; however, Cozarto says that they'll never be able to see the Vongola ever again, and that Giotto knows that fact too. But they believe in each other, so that someday, their descendants could finally meet and smile again with the Vongola. Tsuna and Enma laugh together as they remembered this, ending the Inheritance Ceremony Arc.

Celebrated for its "gorgeous visual imagery" (The London Times) and "mesmerizing flow of invention" (The Boston Globe), Shen Wei Dance Arts makes its Chicago debut with two masterpieces by MacArthur "Genius" Award-winning choreographer and visual artist Shen Wei, known for his awe-inspiring choreography for the Opening Ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Folding conjures up a dreamlike world at once ancient and timeless that draws "gasps of wonder and contemplation" from the audience (San Francisco Chronicle). The groundbreaking Rite of Spring, set to Stravinsky's famed score, brings the fresh eye of the outsider to this well-known music. Shen jettisons all narrative, responding instead with a highly charged abstraction. "The visual and emotional impact is overwhelming," says The New York Times.

It is that time again for a new challenge over at the
Here is my project I created using a Unity Stamp from
the "Remembering You Blooms" and background
paper from A Bit More Time to Craft.
I was able to combine both my 1st of the month DT projects into one,
I stamped the flowers and heat embossed them in gold, then watercolored them
with a combination of Catherine Pooler Inks and my Zig Clean Color markers.
I backed the image using an oval die from Gina Marie dies.
I cut the tab/banner at the bottom using another Gina Marie die and stamped
it and heat embossed it in white. I edged the pattern paper using a Fiskars
punch to give it a bit of interest.
And that's it!. So head on over to the

323: Warding Patterns-Essential Training for Clients/Athletes
Time Block I - Sunday, 10:05-11:55am
Presented by: Michol Dalcourt
Session Format: Workshop
Athletes have been using warding drills for years to elicit athletic gains that can be transferred into sport. A warding pattern is simply maintaining whole–body tension while producing integrated movement patterns (think of a stiff arm in football or a post–up in basketball). Learn the secrets of why this has such great physiological benefits and how we can prescribe warding drills for all clients, including athletes. We'll discuss the physiological rationale for this highly effective style of training, the adaptations that result, numerous examples of warding drills, and simple ways you can incorporate these patterns into your program.

Renegade Theatre Experiment is offering an evening of comedy immersion into the world of fantasy role-playing games with its new production She Kills Monsters, opening Nov. 16.
The RTE production is the West Coast premiere of this work by award-winning Vietnamese America playwright Qui Nguyen.
It is the story of how Agnes finds her younger sister's secret notebook after 15-year-old Tilly is killed in a car crash. Agnes stumbles into her sister's world of Dungeons & Dragons and decides to participate.
When it debuted in New York in 2011, the New York Times called it "impressive" with "the play's depictions of the more conventional wounds of adolescence, the ones that come from loving and not being loved in return."
"The whole enterprise is kind of dopey and kind of invigorating and kind of remarkable. It will slash and shape shift its way into your heart."
She Kills Monsters will play at Historic Hoover Theater, 1635 Park Ave., Nov. 16 through Dec. 7. Performances are at 8 p.m. Thursday, except Nov. 28, through Saturday and 7 p.m. on Sunday. Tickets are $25 general and $20 for educations, seniors and military, law enforcement, fire and rescue personnel.
The show is recommended for ages 18 and older. For tickets visit ren egadetheatre.com.

I'm also not a TV snob. There are only a few shows that I can legitimately say I dislike (Twin Peaks, I'm lookin' at you). I love Criminal Minds, Parks & Recreation, Downton Abbey, Buffy, & Game of Thrones. I am currently on a Battlestar Galactica binge. I watched the first season in a little over one day, and am currently working my way through season two while I am at home sick. It's a little bit like this Portlandia skit.
Raspberry Basil Popsicles
1 cup water
3/4 cup sugar
8-10 leaves of basil
3 1/2 cups raspberries, fresh or frozen
In a sauce pot bring the water & sugar to a rolling boil. Turn off heat, add basil leaves, and cover. Allow to steep for 30-45 minutes. Strain to remove basil leaves. Puree raspberries (I prefer the seeds in my popsicles, but if you don't you can also strain the berry puree before freezing. Add basil syrup to puree and pulse until combined (I prefer the seeds in my popsicles, but if you don't you can also strain the berry puree). Pour into popsicle molds and freeze for 3-4 hours until solid. These popsicles melt really quickly, but you won't be able to eat them slowly enough to worry about that.
Dexter is back on for it's final season, which is really what started this train of thought for me. Those melty popsicles just remind me of the Dexter intro with their bloody redness. Sometimes it's just nice to have things come to an end. TV shows can take things a little too far, pushing beyond good writing to crank out more shows while ratings are still high (cough, The Office, cough). I am fine with a series coming to an end, and I don't think they always need to be revisited. I loved Arrested Development, but the newest season just didn't cut it for me. Sometimes the magic is in that time and place that it was originally created. Of course if they come out with another season or movie, I will watch it. Just like I will watch the Veronica Mars movie (ya know, for completion's sake). But all good things must come to an end. Until then, I will be on this couch cranking my way through the remaining 59 episodes of Battlestar.

Most of us learn the fundamentals of fluid mechanics using Cartesian coordinates. Specifically, derivations of the Navier-Stokes equations are done in a Cartesian reference system. This is a valid way for studying such a complicated set of equations as rectangular coordinates do not present us with the nuances of extra terms due to curvature or other effects that are present in curvilinear coordinates. The final form for the momentum equations is concisely written in vector notation for compactness and simplicity. This is given by
Note that this is a vector equation yielding as many equations as there are coordinates.
In certain cases, it is important to express the convection term using the following identity
This form is very convenient for those of you working with analytical modeling of the NS equations. There was some confusion on whether this identity holds in general curvilinear coordinates. This identity is TRUE in general orthogonal curvilinear coordinates.
I would like to thank Prof. Gary Flandro of UTSI for promoting the use of this form.

Best Laid Plans Gone Awry---Green #9
Rebirth of #3 Green The removed material was stockpiled in the parking lot to be used in other projects at a later date.
The removal of the damaged green and the replacement of the new greens mix was done by Mitch and Bill in only one day.
Champion Ultradwarf bermudagrass sod on it. The sod arrived on Wednesday and early on Thursday morning we got started by first placing a ring of sod around the perimeter of the green and then pulling a rope across the middle of the green so we could have a good first line and off we went.
Unfortunately this is the last project, and last picture I took, of one of our agronomy staff members Barry Webb. Barry passed away unexpectedly on Memorial Day. Rest in peace Barry. You are very much missed.
The Agronomy Staff did a great job on this project and we will continue to work to improve the golf course with other projects such as sodding, tee and approach aerification, and adding sand to bunkers will be carried out throughout the remainder of the summer.

Greens Update -- Getting Better Every Day
|Photo taken on April 19, 2016
Sting (Belonolaimus longicaudatus) variety. Nematodes are microscopic, non-segmented worms which feed on the root system of plants in various ways, all leading to the injury and/or demise of the turfgrass. In the case of the Sting nematode they feed by inserting a stylet into the plant root much like a mosquito into a human and suck out the plant juices. By the time the symptoms are observed on the surface the damage has been done below. We normally treat for nematodes from March through October but with the warm weather this winter the nematodes did not enter dormancy, or hibernation, as they usually do. This was an abnormal year and I simply was not thinking of nematode control during the Christmas season. This has been a wake up call for us and we will, from now on, be on a 12 month preventative control program for these little pests.
|Photo taken on May 21, 2016
Time to Reset we will be doing more cultural practices on the greens to help improve their health and ability to withstand the pressures placed on them from weather, play, maintenance practices, disease pressures, and other forces such as nematode activity. This may include additional venting and quad tine core aerifications, spiking, shallow and deep verticutting of greens, and additional applications of sand topdressings. All designed to improve the health of our greens by revigorating our 12 year old Champion greens with new, stronger, healthier plants.

CNN (Cable News Network) May 01, 2016 The Zombie Literature: Retractions are on the rise. But reams of flawed research papers persist in the scientific literature. Is it time to change the way papers are published?
QUOTE: "I think there is a continuum between fraud and errors, and I think people are all too willing to go easy on something if there is no fraud," says Columbia University statistician Andrew Gelman, who blogs about retractions and reproducibility problems in the scientific literature.
Scientist, The (TS) Dec 12, 2015 This simple negotiation tactic brought 195 countries to consensus
QUOTE: An indaba is designed to allow every party to voice its opinion, but still arrive at a consensus quickly. It works because opinions and arguments can only be aired in a particular way: Instead of repeating stated positions, each party is encouraged to speak personally and state their "red lines," which are thresholds that they don't want to cross. But while telling others their hard limits, they are also asked to provide solutions to find a common ground.
Quartz Dec 06, 2014 Yahoo Angers Photographers By Selling Their Work
QUOTE: some of the photographers made their photos available under Creative Commons under the impression that they'd be used in articles or by other sources rather than Yahoo itself turning them into a source of revenue, much less one that leaves out the content creators.
WebProNews May 27, 2014 Who Wants Free Love Anyway?
QUOTE: Nowhere are the middleman's limitations more evident than dating websites. Consider, for instance, that they don't even do the thing we perhaps most want them to do: vet potential matches for truthfulness.
New York Times Jan 20, 2014 On Facebook, clicking 'like' can help scammers
QUOTE: Often, Senft said, Facebook pages are created with the sole purpose of spreading viral content that will get lots of likes and shares. Once the page creators have piled up hundreds of thousands of likes and shares, they'll strip the page and promote something else, like products that they get a commission for selling. Or, they may turn around and sell the page through black-market websites to someone who does the same. It's a way to trick Facebook's algorithm...
CNN (Cable News Network) Jan 17, 2014 Connected TVs, fridge help launch global cyberattack
QUOTE: a global cyberattack launched from more than 100,000 everyday consumer gadgets such as home-networking routers, televisions and at least one "smart" refrigerator. It's being called possibly the first proven cyberattack to originate from connected appliances -- the so-called "Internet of Things."
CNN (Cable News Network) Oct 19, 2013 Scientific research has changed the world. Now it needs to change itself
QUOTE: Too many of the findings that fill the academic ether are the result of shoddy experiments or poor analysis (see article). A rule of thumb among biotechnology venture-capitalists is that half of published research cannot be replicated. Even that may be optimistic.
Economist Oct 04, 2013 At the Trial of a Psychic, It's Awkward for Her Clients
QUOTE: It is one thing, after having forked over tens of thousands of dollars to a psychic who warned that you had evil spirits blocking your happiness, to become suspicious and demand a refund. And, when that does not happen, to go to the police and swear out a complaint....For two women who accused her of fraud, this week was the first time they were asked, at least publicly, what in the world they had been thinking.
New York Times Sep 26, 2013 Is Yahoo Doing Enough To Protect Sensitive Emails?
QUOTE: ...Yahoo announced that it would give away inactive email addresses and Yahoo IDs. They would only do so if the address had been inactive for at least a year. The idea was that Yahoo's loyal users would be able to get more desirable email addresses....People began criticizing Yahoo's move pretty much right after it was announced in early summer. Security experts warned of privacy and cybersafety issues that could arise from the initiative.

QUOTE: The National Security Agency is winning its long-running secret war on encryption, using supercomputers, technical trickery, court orders and behind-the-scenes persuasion to undermine the major tools protecting the privacy of everyday communications in the Internet age, according to newly disclosed documents. The agency has circumvented or cracked much of the encryption, or digital scrambling, that guards global commerce and banking systems, protects sensitive data like trade secrets and medical records, and automatically secures the e-mails, Web searches, Internet chats and phone calls of Americans and others around the world...
New York Times Jul 11, 2013 Internet trolls: What to do about the scourge of the Web?
QUOTE: "You can't easily taxonomize trolling behavior," she said. "A lot of trolling is about mischief and harmless, silly pranks. But really extreme behavior -- attacking friends and families of kids who have died, for example -- that seems to be a behavior with a different motivation."
CNN (Cable News Network) May 01, 2013 Google Glass, the beginning of wearable surveillance
QUOTE: imagine that millions of Americans walk around each day wearing the equivalent of a drone on their head: a device capable of capturing video and audio recordings of everything that happens around them. And imagine that these devices upload the data to large-scale commercial enterprises that are able to collect the recordings from each and every American and integrate them together to form a minute-by-minute tracking of the activities of millions....default mode is for all data to be automatically uploaded to cloud servers, where aggregation and back-end analytic capacity resides. So, who owns and what happens to the user's data?
CNN (Cable News Network) Apr 28, 2013 Erasing History
QUOTE: The arrest story was obviously true when it was first published. But Connecticut's erasure law has already established that truth can be fungible. Martin, her suit says, was "deemed never to have been arrested." And therefore the news story had metamorphosed into a falsehood.
New York Times Mar 31, 2013 Is A 'Just Looking' Fee A Smart Business Decision?
QUOTE: To complicate things even further for brick and mortars, the rise of smartphones has made it easy for consumers to walk into a store, browse the inventory, and comparison shop right from within. Stores risk losing customers to competitors before they've even left the store....As of the first of February, this store will be charging people a $5 fee per person for "just looking."
WebProNews Feb 25, 2013 Why I'm quitting Facebook
QUOTE: In my upcoming book "Present Shock," I chronicle some of what happens when we can no longer manage our many online presences. I have always argued for engaging with technology as conscious human beings and dispensing with technologies that take that agency away. Facebook is just such a technology. It does things on our behalf when we're not even there. It actively misrepresents us to our friends, and worse misrepresents those who have befriended us to still others.
CNN (Cable News Network) Jan 19, 2013 Morality: It's not just for humans
QUOTE: De Waal isn't sure that his monkeys have what a philosopher would call a "concept of justice" in an intellectual sense.

QUOTE: Given the role of variability in the evolution of fairness, we thought it would be instructive to investigate at what age variability in the sense of fairness develops in children.
Pacific Standard Dec 13, 2012 DealBook Conference Was Impressive, Lucrative and Chummy
QUOTE: Here is what the conference did not have going for it: A great deal of distance between sources and those who cover them — something traditionally thought to be a bedrock journalistic idea....DealBook – a blog and print section dedicated to coverage of mergers and acquisitions and other related subjects — is something of an oddity at The Times. A rainmaker for the company, it has garnered its share of critics who see it as too soft on its sources.

QUOTE: a lack of standardization in COI disclosures increases the administrative burden on physicians and increases the chances of being accused of incomplete and misleading statements. As a solution, their committee — facilitated by the Institute of Medicine — recommends the creation of a centralize database for the disclosure and reporting of interests.
Scholarly Kitchen Nov 26, 2012 Facebook will ask you to vote against your right to vote
QUOTE: Facebook will hold a vote, possibly later this week, in which it will ask users to abolish their right to vote on changes to the social network's privacy policies....Facebook argues it has outgrown the voting and commenting system that currently exists on the site. (One BuzzFeed writer notes that China might argue the same thing with regard to democracy.)
CNN (Cable News Network) Nov 17, 2012 My Take: The danger of calling behavior 'biblical'
QUOTE: The fact of the matter is, we all pick and choose. We're all selective in our interpretation and application of the biblical text. The better question to ask one another is why we pick and choose the way that we do, why we emphasis some passages and not others.
CNN (Cable News Network) Nov 13, 2012 Unequal or Unfair: Which Is Worse? Inequality is a symptom; unfairness is the disease.
QUOTE: Fairness—or lack of it—is central to human relationships at every level, from a marriage between two people to disputes involving war and peace among the nations of the world. I believe fairness is what we need to focus on, not inequality—though I readily acknowledge that high inequality in wealth and income is corrosive to society.
Psychology Today Sep 12, 2012 Rooked: The supremely old-school game of chess is dealing with a very avant-garde brand of unsportsmanlike conduct
QUOTE: even though the kid's only confessed misdeed came among small-time players in an otherwise unremarkable tournament, the electronic score-sheet caper could have implications far beyond the hotel ballroom where it occurred. Most important for everybody but Smiley: Along with being the youngest techno-cheat, he is also the first player of any age caught exploiting an approved software application as part of a cheating scheme.
Grantland Sep 05, 2012 We must be open about our mistakes: Greater transparency about the scientific process and a closer focus on correcting defective data are the way forward
QUOTE: The scientific community must be diligent in highlighting abuses, develop greater transparency and accessibility for its work, police research more effectively and exemplify laudable behaviour. This includes encouraging more open debate about misconduct and malpractice, exposing our dirty laundry and welcoming external examination....Peer pressure is a powerful tool — but only if peers are aware of infractions and bad practice.
Nature Jun 26, 2012 How To Make a Viral Hit in Four Easy Steps: Want to know the secret to BuzzFeed's monster online success? Click here!
QUOTE: Taking other people's stuff as inspiration is a time-honored practice online. Bloggers do it every day, and most of them acknowledge the original source of whatever they're writing about....Peretti wasn't hiding the fact that Shepherd spotted the NedHardy post while making his list. Why not at least link to it?
Slate May 27, 2012 Matt Cutts: Here's How To Expose Your Competitors' Black Hat SEO Practices: Google really wants to know about them
QUOTE: "So first and foremost, I would say do a spam report, because if you're violating Google's guidelines in terms of cloaking or sneaky JavaScript redirects, buying links, doorway pages, keyword stuffing, all those kinds of things, we do want to know about it...You can also stop by Google's Webmaster forum..."
WebProNews Apr 25, 2012 'What Were You Thinking?' For Couples, New Source of Online Friction
QUOTE: the rise of social media — where sharing private moments is encouraged, and provocative and confessional postings can help build a following — has created a new source of friction for couples: what is fair game for sharing with the world?
New York Times Mar 15, 2012 For Apple, Pressure Builds Over App Store Fraud
QUOTE: as reflected by hundreds of online complaints saying that Apple's iTunes Store, and in particular its App Store, which the company portrays as the safest of shopping environments, is not so secure....It's a change for Apple, which was once criticized for its micromanaging of the App Store. Now the problem is not too much control, but too little.
New York Times Mar 15, 2012 It's Not All About You: What Privacy Advocates Don't Get About Data Tracking on the Web
QUOTE: The privacy discourse frames the issue in an ego-centric manner, as a bargain between consumers and companies: the company will know x, y and z about me and in exchange I get free email, good recommendations, and a plethora of convenient services. But the bargain that we are making is a collective one, and the costs will be felt at a societal scale. When we think in terms of power, it is clear we are getting a raw deal: we grant private entities -- with no interest in the public good and no public accountability -- greater powers of persuasion than anyone has ever had before and in exchange we get free email.
Atlantic Online, The (Atlantic Monthly) Feb 27, 2012 Yoga and Sex Scandals: No Surprise Here
QUOTE: After accusations of sexual impropriety with female students, John Friend, the founder of Anusara, one of the world's fastest-growing styles, told followers that he was stepping down for an indefinite period...Yoga teachers and how-to books seldom mention that the discipline began as a sex cult — an omission that leaves many practitioners open to libidinal surprise.
New York Times Feb 17, 2012 Google Accused of Tracking Safari Usage Without Permission
QUOTE: A Stanford University graduate student has released a report that accuses Google and three other ad networks [Vibrant Media, Media Innovation Group, and PointRoll] of side-stepping the privacy settings on Apple's Safari browser to track usage on iPhones and Macs without permission.
PC Magazine Feb 16, 2012 Shocker: Facebook Users Hate Surprise Photo Tagging
QUOTE: nearly all Facebook users think it's rude when someone posts a photo or video of them without asking their permission first.

PC Magazine Feb 15, 2012 Apple: Apps need 'explicit approval' before collecting user contacts
QUOTE: Apple on Wednesday said it will start requiring mobile apps to get explicit permission from iPhone and iPad owners before the apps collect and store information about users' personal contacts. The statement came after a week of revelations that popular social tools like Twitter and Path were doing just that -- sometimes without the user even knowing it.
CNN (Cable News Network) Jan 25, 2012 Build Up Your Phone's Defenses Against Hackers
QUOTE: Technology experts expect breached, infiltrated or otherwise compromised cellphones to be the scourge of 2012. The smartphone security company Lookout Inc. estimates that more than a million phones worldwide have already been affected.
New York Times Nov 12, 2011 Keep government out of mind-reading business (My Take)
QUOTE: Now, for the first time in human history, we are peering into the labyrinth of the mind and pulling out information, perhaps even information you would rather we did not know....If my right to privacy means anything, it must mean the right to keep my innermost thoughts safe from the prying eyes of the state, the military or my employer.
CNN (Cable News Network) Oct 09, 2011 Kids May Develop a Sense of Fairness Earlier Than Thought: Toddlers who are quick to share toys act surprised when food isn't divided equally, study finds
QUOTE: Researchers from the University of Washington found that 15-month-old babies could tell the difference between equal and unequal portions of food. This perception, the study authors noted, affected the babies' willingness to share.
HealthDay Sep 21, 2011 Facebook makes it easier than ever to eavesdrop: The new mini stream feature makes it simple to see what people are saying, even when they might not realize you're listening
QUOTE: any comment you make is potentially open to a new level of scrutiny by all of your peers and followers: casual acquaintances, family members, a boss, a co-worker, a business partner, your pastor....Making matters worse, Facebook doesn't provide much in the way of evident guidance or functionality to keep these privacy barriers intact. You can't easily flip a switch, for example, to prevent a Facebook friend from subscribing to your comments or links.
InfoWorld Aug 31, 2011 Hackers may have stolen more than 200 SSL certificates: Source say DigiNotar breach generated fraudulent certs for Mozilla, Yahoo and Tor, not just Google
QUOTE: Hackers may have obtained more than 200 digital certificates from a Dutch company after breaking into its network, including ones for Mozilla, Yahoo and the Tor project....Security researchers now wonder what else DigiNotar hasn't told users.
Computerworld Aug 31, 2011 Improving Fairness in Flight Delays
QUOTE: For fliers, the RBS-EP proposal would help those whose flights would have been given unfair assignments based on the current approach: based upon a new metric for defining fairness, they would receive earlier (and therefore more advantageous) departure slots.
Harvard Business Review (HBR) Aug 22, 2011 Browsing and Privacy: How to Not Get Tracked: All modern browsers have built-in tools and add-ons to protect users from having their Web behavior tracked. But regardless, some sites still find ways to
QUOTE: Every time browser developers and others come up with a defense against tracking — the use of tiny bits of computer code that tells Web sites where you've been on the Internet — the other side ups the ante with a new trick. And it's happening again.
CIO Magazine Aug 19, 2011 Antibacterial Chemical Raises Safety Issues
QUOTE: a battle over the active ingredient in Dial Complete and many other antibacterial soaps, a chemical known as triclosan...Several studies have shown that triclosan may alter hormone regulation in laboratory animals or cause antibiotic resistance...F.D.A. has already said that soap with triclosan is no more effective than washing with ordinary soap and water, a finding that manufacturers dispute.
New York Times Aug 08, 2011 Facebook's Privacy Issues Are Even Deeper Than We Knew
QUOTE: privacy issues go beyond what the social networking giants themselves do. Now the question includes what they've enabled others to do. The research also neuters the conventional retort, "you can opt out," because the results are based on public information.
Forbes Aug 02, 2011 Car hacks loom as autos go wireless: Tomorrow's vehicles will communicate wirelessly to reduce accidents, and experts are working to ensure hackers can't abuse the technology
QUOTE: The experts involved believe that 83 percent of unimpaired vehicle-related fatalities (those not connected to drugs, alcohol, and so on) might be avoided by boosting vehicular intelligence. Still, any technology capable of transmitting personal data -- in this case, auto-related information -- and controlling our cars could be abused by hackers.
InfoWorld Jul 14, 2011 Hacktivism moves from pranks to problems: Far from being 'sophisticated' attacks, LulzSec and Anonymous are run of the mill, say experts.
QUOTE: a spate of cyber unrest that started last year with attacks by the group Anonymous on companies that took a stand against Wikileaks, a group dedicated to outing government secrets. While companies and government agencies had derided the efforts as pranks, the success that hactivists have had in penetrating networks has increasingly caused concern.
InfoWorld Jul 06, 2011 How Did News of the World Hack Victims' Cell Phones?
QUOTE: The alleged actions of the tabloid's cell phone-hacking employees may beggar belief, Kevin Mahaffey, co-founder and CTO of mobile security firm Lookout, told PC Mag Wednesday. But their techniques for accessing other people's private mail boxes were probably very simple.
PC Magazine Jul 01, 2011 The Unselfish Gene
QUOTE: Why is this deep-rooted belief about human selfishness beginning to change? To some extent, the answer is specific to evolutionary biology. But similar ideas challenging the notion that people are born selfish have surfaced in several other fields, such as psychology, sociology, political science, and experimental economics. Together, these ideas are tracing a new intellectual arc in the disciplines concerned with human action and motivation.
Harvard Business Review (HBR) Jun 28, 2011 DNA tests provide the poop on bad dog owners
QUOTE: among a growing number of apartment complexes implementing PooPrints. That's a program that matches samples of unclaimed dog waste to DNA collected through pets' mandatory mouth swabs in the hope of imposing greater responsibility among pet owners.
CNN (Cable News Network) Jun 25, 2011 It's Science, but Not Necessarily Right
QUOTE: science fixes its mistakes more slowly, more fitfully and with more difficulty than Sagan's words would suggest...Why? One simple answer is that it takes a lot of time to look back over other scientists' work and replicate their experiments. Scientists are busy people, scrambling to get grants and tenure. As a result, papers that attract harsh criticism may nonetheless escape the careful scrutiny required if they are to be refuted.
New York Times Jun 25, 2011 In Medicine, New Isn't Always Improved
QUOTE: the promise of innovation can also prove a trap, a situation now playing out with dire consequences for possibly tens of thousands of people who received artificial hips intended to let them remain active. The implants, known as metal-on-metal hips, were regarded by device makers and surgeons as a major advance over previous designs that used both metal and plastic. Now federal regulators and medical researchers are scrambling to determine how many implant recipients have been injured by the devices, which can shed dangerous metallic debris through wear.

text: I thought we had more time, is all. He brought our family to Disney World a bunch of times, though it involved lots of saving up and scrimping. When we were toddlers; when I was 8, 9, 11. Always for a week in the summer over my birthday. I wish I had more photos. I wish I could tell him my appreciation again. I remember eating Mickey-shaped pizzas (circa 2000, must've been QS) and having the time of my life in the pool. That my dad loved Test Track and all rollercoasters. I remember my dad taking me back to the resort when I got sick in the parks midday. And again on the monorail. And again back at the resort. He wasn't a perfect father. We didn't have a close relationship. Yet when I think of going back home for the funeral, all I can think is how I only want to see him, and how I thought we had time to become close one day. I was jazzed when the Cubs won the World Series last November. He's been a fan all his life, and seeing them finally win last year was everything. He told me afterwards he never thought he'd live to see his Cubbies win in his lifetime, but I'm thankful he did. Thanks for letting me cry and helping me smile, DIS pals.

Your wedding day surely is one of the most important days in your life, so you'll surely want to make your best impression. So, what is a wedding tie? TRaditionally, it is a silk tie in silver, black, white, or a combination thereof in a classic pattern paired with a dark suit, stroller suit (black jacket, grey vest and striped trousers) or a morning coat.
Very few collections exist which offer a selection of high quality wedding ties, and Fort Belvedere is one of them.
1. This fabric is woven with subtle patterns, yet it features a visible stripe and it was designed specifically for weddings. Woven in Italy on heirloom jacquard equipment.
2. Designed for weddings, they are also suitable for business outfits and dark suits, making it a sound investment in your wardrobe for all formal occasions.
3. These ties are entirely sewn by hand, which is important to lend tie the flexibility.
4. All Fort Belvedere ties are designed to form a stunning knot, snd feature classic 3-fold construction with a wool interlining.
5.Fort Belvedere offers 3 different sizes so that each man can attain the ideal proportions for their height.
SHORT - for men that are 5'8" - 173 cm or shorter
REGULAR - for men that are around 5'11 - 180cm tall
LONG for men that are 6'3" - 190cm or taller
A classic outfit for your wedding day consists of either a dark charcoal three piece suit, white shirt and wedding tie, or a black jacket with peaked lapels, striped trousers and a vest in mid grey or buff. Traditionally the most formal wedding outfit - which is still the golden standard in Great Britain - is the morning coat with a top hat,a vest and a wedding tie. Of course, always wear a black polished plain toe shoe.
Most modern ties have thick interlinings and only allow for thick, bulky tie knots. With Fort Belvedere ties, you need not be limited to only one shape. Elegant gentlemen such as Prince Charles, or John F. Kennedy preferred worn smaller, elegant four-in-hand tie knots. Fort Belvedere allows you to tie small, regular and big tie knots! Choose the correct size tie for your stature for small and normal size tie knots, or chose the next longer tie for Balthus or double Windsor knots.
Begin by untying the knot it in the opposite way you tied it; never store ties knotted! Roll it up for a day to allow the wrinkles to relax, and then hang on a tie rack in your closet.
This madder silk tie comes in a heavy Fort Belvedere gift box.
If you have any questions, about tie sizes, or if you need help choosing a tie for yourself or if you want to buy it as a gift, please get in touch with us, we are more than happy to help you.

President Obama got it backwards, at his press conference. You don't use tax revenue (collections) to create jobs. Collecting revenue destroys jobs, it always has. The more you collect (the higher the tax rate), the more jobs you destroy.
You destroy jobs when you increase the cost of hiring someone, that should have been obvious decades ago, but I guess the news hasn't gotten to Harvard Law School. I bet B. Hussein Obama could have gotten a straight answer from the Business School at Harvard, but the Harvard Business School doesn't talk about socialism as much. Business schools tend more toward making capitalism work well.
For the government to get more revenue, they need to get more people working. See, businesses don't pay taxes, they collect them. Any tax the IRS takes from any business increases the cost of doing business, which means that the business charges its customers more, or has to fire an employee or three, so that it can show the owner a profit. Or the business moves out of town (out of the country), or closes.
This also happens when you make regulations that cost the business, such as the EPA's grand "let's shut down the energy plants by making them too expensive to build and operate" scheme. Burning coal and oil don't put as much CO2 in the air as the swamps (protected wetlands, many of them) put out methane, as methane is much more green-housey than CO2. Well, and then there is the whole Brazilian effort to tear down the rain forest to grow "sustainable" ethanol, and then China is busy stripping the rain forests of Asia for lumber and charcoal to heat homes and cook meals. Tearing down old-growth forests, now, seems to this farm boy a pretty sure way to change the "climate".
After the profligate oil and coal burning, not to mention gunpowder use of the 1940s (WWII), how did it turn out that the 1950s were reputed to be the mildest decade on record, if putting out CO2 is supposed to de-stabilise the atmosphere?
Take a million bucks. Spend it on entitlements, to, say, a thousand people. How many jobs did you create, outside the bureaucracy of administering the plan (requiring more tax spending to pay for careers, facilities, benefits, and pensions)? Now take another million bucks, not collected as taxes, from, say a big company. How many jobs are not threatened? Maybe four, maybe fifty, depending on salaries and benefits.
The US Government cannot spend money that creates a job, that doesn't dismantle the ability of American employers to maintain or create more jobs somewhere else, not when they tax employers.
Either President Obama lies when he says he wants to use the government to create jobs, or he is just plain ignorant. I am sure at least one person has been able to describe what increasing taxes means to jobs growth or jobs lost. So is it lies, or is it refusal to hear the truth?
President Obama yesterday held a so-called press conference, All questions were pre-approved, the reporters asking were allowed, by name, to participate in a pre-determined order. It sounded more like a rehearsed press release/propaganda presentation/re-election speech.
And B. Hussein Obama trotted out the waste of the corporate jet again. Like his disparagement of the ATM machine, the corporate jet doesn't represent too much profit -- it represents the jobs of the folk that built and maintain that plane, that operate it daily. And it represents, all too often, a cost savings to the company. I mean, corporations exist to pay profits to the owners, and spending too much on anything from CEO salaries to jets, etc., can be expected to get the company in trouble with investors.
When government increases the costs of corporations and other businesses by collecting taxes, by increasing regulations and the minimum wage, they increase the amount of money that that business has to take in, that comes from the economy. Which leaves the customers of that business, and all other businesses, with less money to pay taxes and live comfortably.
And that means raising tax rates, especially for those in business or wealthy, make taxes harder to pay for the working people and middle class and poor.
I could wish that the American President didn't sound like a college protestor from the 1960s, with the Marxist change of "destroy the military industrial complex". Because this President is doing what the anti Vietnam War protestors advocated. And that Marx prescribed, to prepare a resisting culture for Communist rule. Or even a Chicago gang boss would want to make himself rich.
