He hus officiated in Judge Redlngton's court for some years past and has In that position gained a host ot friends throughout the county. A native of LaGrange, he has resided In Elyria for about twenty years. We are Just entering a new year. While conditions continue much as they have been during the past few months with the murklness slowly but surely disappearing, there are, however, the Inevitable uncertainties still cropping nut ut unexpected times and places. Nineteen twenty-two Is being entered with decks cleared for action. Even though further adjustments must be completed, conditions today are in happy contrast to those that faced us u year ago. Ups-and-dowiiH and hard knocks are sometimes a means of growth. It 1* earnestly to be hoped that business has profited by the obstacles encountered in the past, and that the lessons will be utilized. Business can no long- l er be frightened by a sudden jar or shock. This means progress. Then, too, we are getting back to a I saner method of living and thinking. ' Speculation in tly-by-nlght schemes , has lost much of Its popularity and In I Its plsc* is a desire to Invest in good ! securities. L,evelli'uuledne6s Is beln^ Shown in a truer appreciation of a I dollar's value, And of even greater importance is the fact that we have at hist reached the place where we are Ii 'ginning to realize that no artificial ni h'e.eiy i an be invented for uvoltl- th" consequences or over trading an! nn u is business policies; that 'here Is no detour ou the rough and i "ii painful road Of readjustment that w* have been following. Mm this is no place to stop. A vital need at present is to aid business in every way possible. We are faced by a peculiar sltuutlon Just now. With the exception of the hollUay trade and n few other lines or Industry, this Is naturally the dull period ot the year, und many people have made up their minds that nothing Is to be expected until later. This Is u poor way to get anywhere for it logically follows that it' this later" time falls to bring the expected developments, then this same policy will be continued. It is easy to give advice und sometimes difficult to know Just where to start to shove, but with this in mind we believe that the thing business needs now Is intelligent und constructive push-aheadedness. (Continued on Back Page) HICK CAGERS 1ST DEFEAT The High bsSkStSSIl met defeat when they Journeyed to WlUoughby last Friday evening and met the High team of that town in a hotly contested battle. The score waa 21-14. The local team was greatly weakened because of the absence of Monger, who was on the sick list, and aUo of Gorr, who wus Ineligible; both men were first Stringers, The Wil- loughby gym Is also much lower than any gym that the lota's have been! from cither cases accustomed to playing on and a great Chickenpox Is a favorite disease many shots wont astray on this *OM among the children, there being eight count. The locals put up a good game ; cases in town. As chickenpox Is not and good sportsmanship on the part] | serious disease, there Is little doubt of both teams was the feature of the I but what the epidemic will soon pass game. L. Neumeister of the locals was the thief scorer for his team, scoring four field goal! and two foul goals. Menz and T. Neumeister were each credited with one Held goal, making a total of 14 points for the game. All ot tbe Wll'.oughby lads hail a hand in th* scoring, Sutch, Seltz and Von Lehan- den each scoring one, Markle two and SanizonTna three. Samiobina scored three foul goals and .Markle two, thus making a total of 21 for the entire game. * Following the game, a high school dance wus hold In the locals' honor. The team remained at the homes ot the WlUoughby players Friday evening and went to Cleveland Saturday, where they spent the day. Summary: Field Foul Pts. over. The health condition Is being watched closely through the local health of- liter and the county health board and they are taking every precaution to prevent the spread ot contagious disease. The county nealth nurse, who is sent out by the county board, la also active tn communities where there Is a great deal of sickness, which cannot Be given to doctors because of financial conditions. The local nurse Is In Amherst every Saturday and she will offer aid to any In such need. PLATO CAGERS WIN EASY GAME VISITORS WERE GOOD ON THE FLOOR BUT WERE UNABLE TO FIND BASKET The Plato Clothier's cage quintet added another scalp to their belt last Friday evening when they easily defeated the Olmsted Falls basketeers at the local gym In a runaway game. The final score was 38-14. The locals had the best of th* game throughout, making a good start in the first hair by outplaying and out pointing their opponents in a most baffling manner. They, however, •lowed up in the last ba'f and gave thelr upponentR an opportunity to score, but tbe visitors failed to take advan- tage or the opportunity. "Jake" Belden, "Mark" Wte*a*a and "Bud" Hearn were the big lights in the first period. Hearn scored the first three field goals of the game, giving his team a good start and then played an excellent floor game thereafter. Belden was the big man on the scoring end, making five field goals In this period. Wiseman also scored three spectacular shots. Barker and Sheppard each scored a field goal and Miller scored four foul goals for the Olmsted Fall* team la this period. In the last period the local* slowed up somewhat but not to th* extent that they were outplayed. Belden again came In strong on the scoring In this period by caging three field goals. Wiseman scored a foul goal and M. Baumhsrdt and Wilson each scored a field goal, making a total of N tor the game.

Danbury man charged with fleeing tow
DANBURY -- A Danbury man faces assault charges after police said he got into his truck as it was being towed from a private parking lot and drove away, injuring the tow truck driver in the process.
Luis Toledo, 43, of Crown Street, was arrested after turning himself in to police around 10:30 a.m. Monday, said Danbury police spokesman Detective Lt. Thomas Michael.
Toledo was charged with third-degree assault, first-degree criminal mischief, reckless endangerment, breach of peace and evading responsibility, and was released from custody after posting $1,000 bail, Michael said Tuesday.
Toledo apparently became incensed at the sight of his truck being towed from the lot on White Street, according to police.
"He got into his vehicle and drove off after it was being hitched to a tow truck," Michael said in an email. "The tow operator began to raise the rear end of the vehicle and while the truck was in the air, Toledo got into the vehicle and applied the gas causing the arm to break and the arm struck the tow operator in the right shoulder."
The tow truck driver was treated for an unspecified shoulder injury at Danbury Hospital and released, Michael said.

A Better Job Market This Fall?
I think it is wisest to maintain an "I'll believe it when I see it" approach to this sort of thing. It seems to me that we've had moderately good news about the economy over the past several years (or, at least, less bad economic news) that has failed to materialize as substantial gains in tenure-track philosophy job market.
Another thing that the political science data highlights is that it would be nice if the APA would keep detailed job-market statistics. It would be nice to know what's happening in the job market from year to year. As it is, you have to count entries in the JFP and on the Leiter jobs thread.
--Mr. Zero

In the past, when the APA has kept statistics, they have been virtually meaningless. They counted the number of ads in all of the JFP's, making no effort to figure out which were multiple ads for the same position. (E.g., many departments advertise in both the October and November JFP.) Then they would add up the number of job-seekers that registered at all of the APA meetings, again making no effort to account for repeats. It seems we ought to get better from our professional organization.
- August 1, 2011 at 9:04 AM
Tracking year-to-year fits and starts in the philosophy job market is a mug's game. The real issue is that, for both public and private colleges, the business model is broken. Every year public universities will get less from the states, and no one believes that the private colleges will be able to continue tuition raises in excess of inflation. So how are improvements—new faculty positions, decent raises, professional support—going to be financed? Given the quite real possibility of another recession, and given the huge growth in non-academic positions and programs within the university, it's the academic side of things that's going to get squeezed, and squeezed hard. Plus the cultural climate of the country has turned against the academy: can you see our new Republican masters worrying about the decline in the humanities? I can't.
Until we figure out a new way to fund higher education in the US, and that probably depends upon a major shift in public attitudes, the outlook for academic jobs is going to be bleak, whatever the short-term fluctuations.
- August 1, 2011 at 9:06 AM
What's significant about the article in Inside Higher Education is that it indicates that jobs are becoming more numerous in P. Science. This means that political science departments are hiring, and this is because university provost offices have given them the go-ahead to do this. So I would think this is a good sign, because hiring decisions are made above the department level and this tells us something about how universities are thinking. We'll have to wait and see how this affects philosophy hiring specifically, but, if universities are hiring more, that's a good thing.
- August 1, 2011 at 9:17 AM
On the new APA website, there are some links (under the profession section) to statistics for JFP stats, candidates per Job Advertised Statistics (1982-2001), and a report on placement services, etc.
none of these links work right now
- August 1, 2011 at 10:42 AM
Some anecdotal:
My department got the go ahead to hire this year on a new non-replacement budget line. But we are a mixed department, combining two disciplines (small state school); so no promise it will be in philosophy.

Speaking of the new APA website, is there any word when the JFP will be back online?

The PoliSci numbers listed in the IHE article are for 2010-2011. Was there a corresponding increase in philosophy jobs last year? I don't think so, though the situation for select AOSs seemed better than 2009-10.
I have yet to hear a good reason to think the philosophy job market will improve this year. To be honest, I expect it to be worse. The stimulus money has run out, the one-year extension of unemployment insurance ends this year, cuts to education are part of the new debt limit deal, and the federal govt. has done next to nothing to address unemployment. I see no reason for optimism.

Yes, I was one of the two commenters at Leiter, and in my experience so far, the states' well-being correlates depressingly well with university hirings in the public sector. As you can see from the page I linked to, states are likely to recover some well-being in two years, but not in one:

"This is the book I wish I had written myself. It is simply the best book I have read that tackles the many difficulties that the Old Testament presents to thinking and sensitive Christians. Paul Copan writes in such a simple, straightforward way, yet covers enormous issues comprehensively and with reassuring biblical detail and scholarly research." Christopher J. H. Wright, international director, Langham Partnership International; author of Old Testament Ethics for the People of God
"Lucid, lively, and very well informed, this book is the best defense of Old Testament ethics that I have read. A must-read for all preachers and Bible study leaders." Gordon Wenham, emeritus professor of Old Testament, University of Gloucestershire
"The New Atheists have attacked the morality of the Old Testament with a vengeance. In honesty, many Christians will confess that they struggle with what looks like a primitive and barbaric ethic.

I'm so ready for summer. Walking barefoot. Tee shirts. Tank tops. And SHORTS! Just like uncomfortable jeans, there are uncomfortable shorts. The kind that hurt your lady parts. Sorry to be blunt but you know what I mean! I like wearing elastic, loose-legged shorts in the summer but I don't like looking as though I'm wearing men's boxers. I want cute shorts that I can wear to the grocery store! Kayaking. Even dare say, a casual summer dinner party. You too? Well look no further I think I found the shorts for us!

Scouting Showcase delivers unique opportunity
ST. LOUIS -- Seven miles from where Game 3 of the World Series was about to be played Saturday night, Dan Dixon, an area scout in Southern California for the Major League Scouting Bureau, stood out in left field on the Cool Papa Bell Baseball Field at the Mathews-Dickey Boys & Girls Club. Dixon began speaking to 35 hopeful boys and young men, each of whom had visions of grandeur.

ST. LOUIS -- Seven miles from where Game 3 of the World Series was about to be played Saturday night, Dan Dixon, an area scout in Southern California for the Major League Scouting Bureau, stood out in left field on the Cool Papa Bell Baseball Field at the Mathews-Dickey Boys & Girls Club. Dixon began speaking to 35 hopeful boys and young men, each of whom had visions of grandeur.
They want to be Major League Baseball players.View Full Game Coverage
He just wanted to be able to write at least one scouting report on a kid worth tracking.
"You're going to get a chance to show us what you can do," Dixon told them, standing next to a handful of area scouts who held timing devices and clipboards. "We're grading you guys against Major League standards, so keep that in mind. They average a 6.9 60."
So began the first-ever Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities (RBI) Scouting Showcase, drawing aspiring talent locally and from across the RBI program. Depending on their positions, prospects ran the 60-yard dash, took 45 minutes of batting practice, took infield, including slow rollers, tested their arm strength and accuracy in the outfield, and measured their velocity on the mound.
"We really had some discussion internally about what sort of opportunities we could provide to the higher-end RBI players to pursue a college scholarship or maybe even chase the dream of being a professional player," said David James, MLB's RBI executive director. "Through the efforts of the Commissioner's Diversity Task Force, we thought that our biggest stage, the World Series, would be a great opportunity to get some of these RBI kids in front of the Scouting Bureau, potentially other colleges, and see what they are able to do."
That Showcase immediately followed a "Wanna Play?" youth clinic that drew local and regional participants, with former Cardinals Kerry Robinson and Cliff Politte among those teaching skills. MLB Network analyst Harold Reynolds, MLB vice president of community affairs Tom Brasuell and Sharon Robinson, daughter of Jackie Robinson, were among those who spoke to participants in the morning. Baseball's reach on this morning went far beyond the walls of Busch Stadium.
The back-to-back event over four hours at 54-year-old Mathews-Dickey, near an underserved section of St. Louis, was part of MLB's fifth annual World Series community initiative program for Games 1-4, each game dedicated to different themes for a lasting legacy.
As the backdrop to Game 3, MLB highlighted its commitment to youth from underserved communities through events involving RBI, the importance of education through the Breaking Barriers program, and celebrating community service through the Busch Stadium pregame presentation of the prestigious Robert Clemente Award presented by Chevrolet.
Game 4 on Sunday will look to inspire fans worldwide to join MLB and Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C) in advancing the fight against cancer. In Boston, Game 1 was dedicated to Welcome Back Veterans and Game 2 focused on two long-time MLB charitable partners in Boys & Girls Clubs and Habitat for Humanity, as well as the Baseball Tomorrow Fund.
"I know a lot of this is PR, but we're hoping to find a ballplayer out here," Dixon said. "We've got some notes on some of these kids, there are supposed to be some good runners, and if we can get a good arm, hopefully we can write a report on one of these kids in this area.
"We're looking for velocity, we're looking for competitors, growth projection, we want to see guys who can just make it look easy. We're hoping there could be a hitter out here. ... Weather cooperated, and then we get to stick around and go to the World Series game tonight, so that's a perk for us."
Dixon said he hopes it will grow into a larger annual World Series event.
"We're trying to give these kids an opportunity to get them off the street and give them an opportunity to play baseball," Dixon said. "They can go play other sports, but we're introducing baseball to them, and hopefully these kids can come out and give it a shot. Some of these kids, all of a sudden they're going to like it, then they'll stick around and play in the high-school programs, go off to college, and, with any luck, some of them will make it to the pro ranks."
One such hopeful is Sadiq Burkholder, 19, a left-hander from Williamsport, Pa. He has played the last five years with the Harrisburg RBI program, leading his team to the RBI World Series title this year, and MLB flew him here to give scouts a look at his talent.
"It's an amazing feeling," he said. "Being out here in front of the scouts, going to the Gala last night and seeing all the big representatives of MLB, and being flown out here and staying at a great hotel, being driven around by VIP services, it's an amazing experience"
Reynolds told the "Wanna Play?" kids that there are millions of ballplayers in America, and a difference maker is the character of a person. He told them to choose friends wisely and work on their grades, to make scouts and coaches take notice.
"Don't stop your opportunity before you even get out the door," he said.
Once the site of a city trash dump, the first site of the RBI Scouting Showcase was tied to some authentic baseball history. James "Cool Papa Bell," the Negro Leagues legend and Hall of Famer, was a good friend of Martin L. Mathews, co-founder of this Boys & Girls Club. The kids were made aware of Bell's legacy.
"He served some time with the organization in helping things out and giving good advice to children," Tom Sullivan, vice president of Mathews-Dickey, said of Bell. "It was a good fit for us to name the stadium after Cool Papa Bell. He lived three miles from here when he was alive, and we continued his legacy."

Christophoros (Rakintzakis) of Andida
His Grace Bishop Christophoros (Rakintzakis) is a bishop of the Ecumenical Patriarchate serving in Canada within the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of Toronto (Canada).
His Grace Bishop Christophoros of Andida was born in Athens. He is a Graduate of the Theological and Philosophical School of Athens. A recipient of the Greek State Scholarship, he received His Master of Arts degree from the University of Birmingham in the United Kingdom. He also served a two-year term as a reserve artillery officer in the Hellenic Army.

He later served as the Dean of the Toronto Orthodox Theological Academy from its founding in 1998, until 2006.
Upon the recommendation of His Eminence Metropolitan Archbishop Sotirios (Athanassoulas) of Toronto, the Sacred and Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate elected the Very Rev. Christophoros Rakintzakis as titular Bishop of Andida, which was a former Diocese of the Metropolis of Pergis in Asia Minor.[note 1] He was elected Auxiliary Bishop on June 10, 1999 and was ordained as Bishop on June 26, 1999. His Grace Bishop Christophoros was consecrated Bishop at the Church of St. Nicholas in Scarborough, in a ceremony full of Byzantine majesty and beauty. Along with His Eminence Metropolitan Archbishop Sotirios, who presided at the consecration, the other ordaining Hierarchs who participated in the Consecration Liturgy were:

Even though the first day of summer is still several weeks away warm temperatures combined with Memorial day weekend have us with summer on the brain. This weekend we want to know what you think is the ideal vehicle for warm weather cruising. What is the perfect summer car?
To me the perfect summer car is actually a summer truck, more specifically the International Scout. Although I'm partial to my own '67 800, it is hard to go wrong with any Scout on a sunny day. Removable hardtops and four wheel drive make the Scout a perfect summer beach cruiser for those with a love of the unusual.
There are a variety of interesting and cool vintage SUVs with removable tops and four wheel drive, but to me none are quite as fun to drive, functional, quirky and indestructible as the Scout. Although single digit gas mileage is a little tough to swallow and finding a rust free Scout is easier said than done (we didn't say they were perfect), I can't imagine anything I'd rather be driving on a sunny summer day.

Ok, to try and steer the discussion towards macross again, maybe we can talk abou the koenig monster. It seems to serve the role of mobile artillery. I kinda like the idea of a bomber that can transform into a ground based artillery platform. I mean hell, if your artillery is that mobile, you definitely have some advantages on the battlefield. But the thing that baffles me is, what the hell is the point of the legs? Lets ignore the fact that it even transforms in space, which I can't understand a single point to that, but even on a planet, I don't see the point. It can barely walk as it is, so it's definitely not for all terrain movement. Not to mention since it can fly, it really doesn't need all terrain movement.

The idea of the Koenig Monster is that it's a transformable version of the original Monster. Like all artillery units, the Destroid Monster carries heavy firepower, but it slow, and getting the firepower where you want it fast enough is a bitch. Hence, the Shuttle mode on the Koenig Monster, the idea being that it flies to the AO, deploys into GERWALK mode, blasts the crap out of everything, transforms back into Shuttle mode and flies home. As for why it has legs, the idea is to grant it limited mobility when in ground operations mode (actually, its mobility is slightly better than a standard towed artillery gun, though a self propelled gun probably has better mobility), as well as a lower center of gravity that brings better stability. Also note that when Kanaria fires her guns, the Koenig Monster leans back and a back stabiliser deploys, forming a tripod configuration in combo with the front legs - something very similar to a mortar tripod, incidentally.
As for why it needs to transform into GERWALK mode, I refer you to episode 25, where Kanaria does a 360 degree turn, blasting all targets she sees. You can't do those sorts of turns in Bomber mode.
Also, the other reason the Koenig Monster needs to transform because the missile launchers, arm guns, and railguns are not available in Bomber mode; Shuttle mode's only weapons are the nose autocannons. It has no other weapons in shuttle mode - you're confusing it with the VAB-2 and the VA-9 Invader (which was a bomber Valk based off the A-6 Intruder bomber in service with the US Navy).
You also forget that artillery always needs to reposition itself in small ways - the simplest being turning to a new heading to shoot at a new target. When you're sitting in one spot and need to turn 20 degrees to face a new target, it's very ridiculous to take off, fly around, and land again when you can just use the legs and turn.

Are we discussing this in context to the monster firing in space or on a planet? In space, it doesn't need to be braced. Actually the railguns would serve as an auxiliary propullsion device if necessary.
On land, legs don't provide a stable platform. Actually, they would just be more likely to break, or cause the mech to fall flat on its back. Tracks would be more logical if you wanted it to remain mobile.
I don't have a major problem with it being able to transform into a shuttle/bomber whatever. More mobility is good, I mentioned this already.
Again, tracks can provide MORE stability, and MORE mobility than those goofy legs can. No leg configuration has superior stability compared to just tracks. Tracks are also a simpler design, and easier to repair.
Ack no. You don't need to transform into gerwalk mode to spin in space. Macross gets this part horribly wrong. In space, you don't have to face the direction you are moving in. You can spin all day while moving in one direction if you wanted to. In fact, that's what planets do. Well they spin while moving in circles.
Yea, but why not? Why not have those weapons mounted while in shuttle/bomber mode? What's stopping it from happening other than a really bad design on the part of the engineers?

Also, note that despite its superior mobility vs. towed artillery, there are still terrain types that tracked artillery cannot reach. This is a non issue for the Koenig Monster, which can just fly there and park.
Also, as we see in Episode 25, if the Koenig Monster falls, it falls forward, not back. Also, consider that the layout of the legs and the back stabiliser is very much in the same tripod configuration used by mortars and conventional towed artillery.
Nobody is saying that the Koenig Monster design is perfect. It is, however, the best compromise that the designers could come up with at the time it was fielded. All designs are ultimately compromises. It was designed and intended to give the original Destroid Monster a form that would allow more mobility and faster deployment of heavy artillery to the battlefield. GERWALK mode is the entire point of the Koenig Monster; Shuttle mode is the means to get there.

Eating your babies
Let me link you to two items from the Macross Mecha Manual website that should clear up why the VB-6 can't fire it's rail guns while in shuttle mode. I suppose you could, in theory, but by the time you get the big guns out, you're mostly in GERWALK anyways.
Amusingly, the parts of the guns that point backward can be used to generate more thrust in shuttle mode, but to swing them forward and fire would not be good in space unless you wanted to decrease your forward thrust. Macross at least pays lipservice to realistic physics and screwing with your forward velocity in the middle of space combat is a bad thing.

Is anyone else besides me failing to see any real discussion of Macross Mecha, Weapons and Technology in these latest points? Everything is being discussed "out of context" with points like "real lasers don't work like lasers in Macross, therefore Macross future warfare is wrong". This latest one is "transforming mecha don't make sense, so what's the point of the VB-6 Konig?". Shouldn't these "revelations" that Macross lasers and Macross mecha aren't real already be apparent?
Take this for example:
I'd like to see discussion of Macross Mecha, Weapons and Technology from the basic assumption that it's practical and has a valid purpose. It's then our jobs as the audience to "imagine" why it works. If we're not suspending our disbelief and instead benchmarking Macross by how things work in the "REAL WORLD", where then is the discussion of "Macross Mecha, Weapons and Technology" in the recent pages of this thread?
From what I can tell these latest discussions are really just a way of saying the fictional science of Macross doesn't make sense/doesn't work. We might as well be criticising Star Wars for lightsabers and Star Trek for transporters for all the good it does.

As I said a whole lot posts back when I still had the patience to reply to those senseless arguments, thinking using 'possible in the current world' assumptions is the WORST thing you can do as it's practically a pure error at it's core. Get rid of this mind set and then post your questions.
A question about VF-25F and S variation. Considering all the previous VF designs and the F/S versions the most obvious feature that is changed in the S version is the amount of the Head Laser turrets as well as weight and engine output. S Variations are commander type and thus provide a better performance to the F version. Is there any solid info on the specs of VF-25S ? We know that it has 4 x fixed Mauler RÖV-217C coaxial 12.7mm beam guns while F has 2. Is there anything more?

Maybe the feet of the legs can grip the surface better than treds for when it is firing. Or if not, then so it can grip onto a ships hull in zero gravity. You can't do that with a tred. Remember it was designed based on a walking mech that didn't have a shuttle mode or any kind of transformation ability. It was not intended to move very far or very fast. But it does seem to be intended to provide mobile weapons coverage in the orginal Macross, as these were used on deck and inside the Assault carrier arm for the Macross' punch-like attack (to deliver heavy ordinance to an enemy ship's interior).
The shuttle mode makes the vessel more useful as it can now be used as part of a fleet's force projection group when needed, or for rapid redeployment to vessels in the fleet that need heavy firepower (civilian ships).
As for its battleroid mode....I have no idea really. Its GERWALK mode was the original standard mode and the shuttle gives it superior self deployment capability. I guess the battleroid mode is for its own personal self defense? Instead of being ripped up at close range where it's massive guns are useless (because it would take itself out in the blast), and it can't outrun whatever is attacking in shuttle mode, them it would have to have a means of defending itself. Fists and/or a mech sized rifle would do I suppose to get it to the standards of the various variable fighters.

Firing the railgun while in shuttle mode has a nagging problem of EMP that may render flight, navigation computers as well as the engine to shut down needing to reinitialize the system again. Not very good in a combat situation.
Especially in flight mode where there will be no system to compensate recoil.

Daigo you don't own the thread so you don't have a right to complain when it is on-topic. Unless you want to be reported for thread spamming again.
The reason you switched back to Macross discussion is because you'be been taking the heat from everyone around here. You don't like also being rebutted on your arguments even if others are more knowledgeble than you in physics and history. Having better sounding arguments than you and disproving your statements. That is why you keep on repeating yourself even if it was disproven.
March is right keep this thread a Macross discussion. Read the title and the rules.
Anything else is considered spamming.

One more thing warship that will be equiped with rail guns will have a larger frame, mass made from highly conductive material(steel) not some kind of titanium alloy and, floating on sea(which acts as an Earthing system) not in mid air.
Frankly speaking you are trying to mix apples with oranges.
When you have a working rail gun deployed on a B1 bomber call me.

Question to Daigo: Are you discussing Macross technology as this thread intended to do?
I also have an observation to make to the general. If a post isn't partaking to the intended discussion of a thread-topic, then instead of making it an issue, one can always go around such post. If one is going to entertain a post that is considered off-topic by replying to it, then there shouldn't be any complaints later on, now should there? Discussing a topic shouldn't be that difficult to do just because one poster is going off-topic. If I have something to contribute to the topic at hand, then I can always do so. An off-topic isn't going to hinder my intention. Hopefully, I'm making sense!

TV's undisputed popularity as the go-to entertainment device is ending. Now, as viewers shift their allegiance to other devices, media companies must identify new ways to package content and share it across multiple screens.
Are we watching the death of TV, on multiple screens? Not yet. But the way viewers consume video content is changing faster than ever before. The 2015 Accenture Digital Consumer Survey puts this into focus.
Broadcasters need to start investing aggressively in multi-device platforms, as well as securing teaming relationships that leverage their footprints further into the multi-device space. A simple repackaging of the same programming available anywhere is unlikely to make the grade.

Yamato is just too sweet sometimes.
Things are kinda getting harder for Tachibana though.
At least their relationship is making some progress.
Yamato's "friends" are no fun... mostly jealous I guess.
Mei seems to be very observant.
Really nice episode with some issues resolved.

I'm glad I like romance, because this show is just drenched in it. Along with the "general ugliness of teenagers" and "every good moment...punished by five or ten bad moments." But the good moments are very, very good. I just about fell in love with that bandage myself, lol.
Good work by Kayano Ai, despite a few moments early on of what might have seemed excessive weakness in her voice. Kaji Yuuki did a great job of portraying Hayakawa.

I thought that ep 4 was excellent - another very well done adaptation.
Mei is a such a wonderful character. I also love that quiet strength that periodically comes forth from her.

Great 4th episode. Like the manga I'm impressed at the interaction between the characters (Yamato and Mei in particular) and the maturity on Mei's development as a character. Her willingness to come out of her shell and be more open is definitely present, but her walls regarding Yamato still need a bit more breaking it seems. Oh well don't change what works. I really hope next episode what I think it could be. Can't wait.

nice episode, great performance by kayanon i think, though it's straight and straight romance but her performance carries the show forward .
mei character was also likeable, surprised she went forward to "defend" aiko there, considering aiko's is her [rival] somewhat. not many people would do so , much less young students, that requires great mental conviction. most would just freeze.
the end part was great. with that " i love that scar so much i could cry"

On episodes 3 and 4 (will try to avoid directly reciting spoilers): A shoujo where things actually happen!
Mei, although willing to have Yamato accompany her, still has trust issues rooted in the psychological damage she received when younger. She didn't believe that Yamato could truly pick her out of the large amount of girls that he could choose to be with, and outright stated that she didn't understand his character enough. Hearing something unfavorable about Yamato when being pulled aside only made this worse, as she became depressed and went off on her own. Yamato chose to reveal more about himself, and how he admires Mei for not being afraid to voice her discontent, while he is typically acts inoffensive to avoid conflict, which resulted in personal problem arising. Having lived in her own bubble for a long time, this sparks Mei to attempt to move on from her psychological damage and attempt to be more sociable. After a small timeskip, people have taken notice of Mei's attempt to be more sociable, and there's quite a bit of gossip regarding Yamato and Mei. A supposed friend of Yamato's asks that Yamato take Mei out so that he can meet her. He is pure scum, which Mei obviously detects since she is observant, and refuses to associate with him. Mei's problems with trust arise again as she was not pleased about how Yamato could possibly introduce her to such a terrible person, and stays clear of him for a while. Yamato picks up on what the guy did and defends Mei in her absense. Mei later defends somebody else and grills the jerk that Yamato introduced her to. Mei, having been taken advantage of and not having people help her in times of need, is touched after seeing evidence about Yamato's defense of her (which was not even spurred on by request), and perhaps this is the beginning of something more intimate.

This just isn't really my cup of tea. I hate sappy — or more accurately in this case, catty — teenage melodramas with a passion, and Sukkitte ii na yo represents just about everything I loathe about such stories. A portrayal of a thoroughly shallow and cavalier approach to relationships that I would vigorously advise any person, young or old, to avoid in real life. And to make matters worse, it's contrasted with an overly idealised couple that could only exist in reel life, hence ironically worsening the teenage fantasies that perpetuate the portrayed problems in reality. But that's just me and my personal preferences talking. From a technical and professional perspective, on the other hand, I can well understand why this series works. Very well, I might add.
So, a rather odd pick for me this season: a show I would rather not touch with a ten-foot pole, but which I watch in any case for what it can teach me about how this genre operates. A shame that it doesn't attract the attention I think it deserves.

Being handled by ZECXS is the big primary reason for why this show doesn't attract more attention, as the studio doesn't have a very good reputation. The other big reason is that most people who watch such series prefer to see some idealized scenarios where both the male and the female are virgins, and to see a slow courtship.

I think the biggest reason why this show isn't popular because shoujo isn't big on this forum, along with the fact you actually had to rely on actual fansubs (in this day and age) for the first few episodes before CR picked it up.

Quite straightforward of you!
Your reactions (bolded above) kinda reminds me in very general terms of what I felt about Sankarea - I could tell it was very well done, but I just loathes the genre with a passion.
Kudos to you for your honesty.
Am still waiting eagerly for ep 4 to be subbed!

I feel Sukitte offers a more realistic, and honest take on romances than most things you can find. Of course there's a degree of "that would never happen" with how the relationship gets started in the first place. I wouldn't deny that.

So, boy is a possessive bastard ("Mei is mine!") and girl attacks the competition because of her own crushing insecurity ("I won't lose to you." -- ye gods what a cliche!).
Those two deserve each other.
Is this really wish fulfillment? I for one do not want possessiveness or insecurity in a significant other/beloved/whatever it's called nowadays.

So Kurosawa got himself an abandoned kitten.
Well, it was thinks to Mei though..
Mei's cat on the other hand was pretty passive.
Her first time at Kurosawa's place was interesting.
Kurosawa's little sister Nagi kinda ruined the mood..
Well, that kid had her own problems. I kinda felt sorry for her.
She's pretty talented too ^^ It didn't take long for her to hit it off with Mei.

I've never heard a guy so glad so see a kitten poop before.
And it's amazing that even the little girls are incredibly catty...
But it was a good episode and I liked the way Mei managed to bond with Kurosawa's little sister.

Yamato's voice was weird during the cat scene
Nagi is so cute and I like how she and Mei formed a bond since they share the same bad experiences.
They skipped a couple of chapters, I thought this one was going to be about Yuki Kaiji's character. And it was a bit weird to see Aiko with the group now.
I'm falling in love more and more with the ED

Man we had one hell of a fire on our 400 acres. Somebody supposedly herding cattle with ATVs started it on the river on Saturday and the fire department thought they had it out. Well it burned thousands of acres and about 80% of our place. Scotty helped me with my 100 gallon sprayer and my son in law Sam brought my dozer up to help the counties 4 graders build firelines. At least we didn't lose our cabin, deer stands, feeders or barn. We did lose a nice 8X8 steel shed that had a 1 lb cylinder of propane the blew the windows out as it burned. It could have been worse. Check the CCF Facebook site for more pictures.

Re: FIRE
Yep we are hoping that in the midst of this terrible drought that we will get enough rain to grow some grass and prevent the place turning into a bunch of sand dunes. 75 miles from here we have a place called Little Sahara that is a blast to ride ATVs at with 60, 70 foot & perhaps larger dunes. I think I remember that it's a bit larger than 1600 acres. I would rather have the game that comes with new growth though. Several years ago I spent over $10,000 fencing the 400 acres. Now I'm getting kind of old for that kind of fence work. After dragging my sprayer hose over a bunch of that land I'm as sore as an old goat. Yet I still consider ourselves lucky in what we didn't lose. Just out of freak timing I had moved several items out of that shed into the cabin so we didn't lose them.

That's very unfortunate. At least no one was hurt.
"Welcome to Costco. I love you."
Re: FIRE
I just got off the phone with the Lawton City Attorney who owns the land where the fire started when their Kawasaki Mule got in some tall grass and it cooked off. I called him at work and he seemed to be a pretty decent person although I was worried about him being a lawyer. I did know his father who passed away the same year as mine and we spent some time reminiscing about my dealings with his father when we built the fence between us. Anyway in the long run the building that got burned up was $1210 and he is sending me a check to pay for it. I thought that was pretty decent of him and he is being a good neighbor. We also spoke about the hunting on our properties and if we have a wounded animal cross the fence between us then we agree that it can be pursued across the fence.

It was warm however it was 20 degrees this morning and we have 3" of snow outside. Some much needed moisture.

Modern Puppy - Idea Thread
Subject description: FOR IDEAS ONLY
This thread will be ONLY expressing my ideas AND your ideas about a more modern Puppy.
My Idea is to create a more modern core (and a graphical system) for Puppy Linux. This will maybe be turned into what will be known as Modern Puppy. This at first will be built from Woof2, but then the core will be updated and remastered into a more modern puplet. I want:
-to create a multiuser puplet with a simple cli login manager
-to use X.Org 7.7
-replace JWM and Rox with XFCE and Thunar
-to do many more things
-to use latest kernel
but yet be small.
If enough people want to see one, then another thread will appear.

Sounds very ambitious, but you haven't mentioned the ugly technical part. You'll have to answer a few questions before you claim it's possible:
- How do you intend to make Woof2 multi-user? That would be extremely complicated and if you want to do it right (e.g keep it generic - also have the door open for ARM or x86_64) you'll run against the single-user wind of Barry. Woof was never intended to create multi-user puppies, same goes for using a desktop other than the JWM/ROX-Filer combo.
- Latest kernel - if you want to always have the latest, there are two issues: one is keeping up with new releases (yes, updating a running kernel, yes!) and the high cost of frequent kernel upgrades, which is why many distros stick with stable releases like 3.2. Considering the limited resources you probably have for this task, it sounds like a very tough goal.
- Be small - very ambitious if you want the latest kernel and Xfce. Think of the long term - GTK+ 3.x will have to be added in parallel to Xfce's 2.x, same goes for Xfce's dependencies. And a hurried package of the latest and greatest kernel won't make it easier.
You'll need a very high degree of automation to make this thing work - that will ease dealing with package size (automated stripping of size-optimized packages and stuff) and kernel upgrades (well, partially - you'll have to make new configurations between versions, manually).
Now think of my first point, which is the real issue here - that's the true challenge! Previous attempts to make Puppy multi-user are no longer relevant with Woof2, so you'll have to do that research, too.
Anyway, nice agenda. I wish you the best of luck with your idea. You'll need to form a dream team of developers to make a post-Modern Puppy

Why don't you start off with Jemimah's Saluki or another pup that already has xfce, and try to add multi-user support for that?

I trust that Iguleder and others can explain it to you
I only have to go on being active here for some years.
To do this "7th.) Add multiuser functionality. "
would need very good skills and I hope Iguleder
or somebody else explain how difficult it would be
unless you just accept Spot and Fido
but that would not be a true multi user would it?
BigPup is multi in how it use Spot? But you mean
real multi user and that is entirely different?
Now I am a noob but to have the multiuser
on 7 place would that work. You need to start
with mulitiuser and write a new form of woof that
is a multiuser woof?
I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

I dig those at least, but maybe with something like XDM or some kind of display manager. A new X.Org could be good, just depends on if it would work for Puppy, and allow more systems to use it.
Later Kernel is nice, but I don't know if we need to have the latest and greatest. I say we get a stable system on a relatively recent kernel, and that should be swell.

New Englanders began the back-breaking job of digging out from as much as 3 feet of snow Saturday and emergency crews used snowmobiles to reach shivering motorists stranded overnight on New York's Long Island after a howling storm swept through the Northeast.
About 650,000 homes and businesses were left without electricity, and some could be cold and dark for days. Many roads across the New York-to-Boston corridor of roughly 25 million people were impassable. Cars were entombed by drifts. And some people woke up in the morning to find the snow packed so high they couldn't get their doors open.
"It's like lifting cement. They say it's 2 feet, but I think it's more like 3 feet," said Michael Levesque, who was shoveling snow in Quincy, Mass., as part of a work crew for a landscaping company.
At least four deaths in the U.S. were blamed on the overnight snowstorm, including an 11-year-old boy in Boston who was overcome by carbon monoxide as he sat in a running car to keep warm while his father shoveled Saturday morning.
In Providence, Jason Harrison had been working for nearly three hours to clear 3 feet of snow that blocked his driveway and front walk and still had more work to do. His snowblower, he said, "has already paid for itself."
But neighbors Rebekah and John Speck strapped on cross-country skis and coasted past snowdrifts 5 feet high and drooping telephone lines encrusted with snow.
Rhode Island Gov. Lincoln Chafee cautioned that while the snow had stopped, the danger hadn't passed: "People need to take this storm seriously, even after it's over. If you have any kind of heart condition, be careful with the shoveling."
Blowing with hurricane-force winds of more than 80 mph in places, the storm appeared to hit hardest along the heavily populated Interstate 95 corridor between the New York metropolitan area and Maine. Milford., Conn., got 38 inches of snow, and Portland, Maine, recorded 31.9, shattering a 1979 record. Several communities in New York and across New England got more than 2 feet.
Still, the storm was not as bad as some of the forecasts led many to fear, and not as dire as the Blizzard of '78, used by longtime New Englanders as the benchmark by which all other winter storms are measured.
By midday Saturday, the National Weather Service reported preliminary snowfall totals of 21.8 inches in Boston, ranking the storm sixth for all-time snowfall. Bradley Airport near Hartford, Conn., got 22 inches, for No. 2 in the record books.
In New York, where Central Park recorded 11 inches, not even enough to make the all-time Top 10 list, Mayor Michael Bloomberg said the city "dodged a bullet" and its streets were "in great shape." The three major airports – LaGuardia, Kennedy and Newark, N.J. – were up and running by late morning after shutting down the evening before.
Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island imposed travel bans until 4 p.m. to keep cars off the road and let plows do their work, and National Guardsmen joined state crews in clearing Connecticut highways.
On Long Island, which got more than 2 1/2 feet of snow, hundreds of drivers spent a cold and scary night stuck on the highways. Even snowplows got bogged down or were blocked by stuck or abandoned cars, so emergency workers used snowmobiles to try to reach motorists, many of whom were still waiting to be rescued hours after the snow had stopped.
One of those who was eventually rescued, Priscilla Arena, prayed as she waited, took out a sheet of loose-leaf paper and wrote what she thought might be her last words to her husband and children, ages 5 and 9. Among her advice: "Remember all the things that mommy taught you. Never say you hate someone you love."
Richard Ebbrecht, a chiropractor, left his office in Brooklyn at 3 p.m. on Friday and headed for home in Middle Island, N.Y., but got stuck six or seven times on the Long Island Expressway and other roads.
"There was a bunch of us Long Islanders. We were all helping each other, shoveling, pushing," he said. He finally gave up and settled in for the night in his car just two miles from his destination. At 8 a.m., when it was light out, he walked home.
"I could run my car and keep the heat on and listen to the radio a little bit," he said. "It was very icy under my car. That's why my car is still there."
Across much of New England, streets were empty of cars and dotted instead with children who had never seen so much snow and were jumping into snowbanks and making forts. Snow was waist-high in the mostly empty streets of Boston. Plows made some thoroughfares passable but piled even more snow on cars parked on the city's narrow streets.
Boston's Logan Airport was not expected to resume operations until late Saturday night.
Around the New York metropolitan area, many victims of Superstorm Sandy were mercifully spared another round of flooding, property damage and power failures.
"I was very lucky and I never even lost power," said Susan Kelly of Bayville. "We were dry as anything. My new roof was fantastic. Other than digging out, this storm was a nice storm." As for the shoveling, "I got two hours of exercise."
Some homes in Massachusetts had to be evacuated because of coastal flooding, including in Salisbury Beach, where around 40 people were ordered out.
Among them were Ed and Nancy Bemis, who heard waves crashing and rolling underneath their home, which sits on stilts. At one point, Ed Bemis went outside to take pictures, and a wave came up, blew out their door and knocked down his wife.
"The objects were flying everywhere at the beginning. If you went in there, it looks like two big guys got in a big, big fight. It tore the doors right off their hinges. It's a mess," he said.
The Postal Service took the rare step of closing post offices and suspending mail delivery Saturday in New England.
Some people managed to make it to work. In Westborough, Mass., Christina's Cafe opened at 6 a.m. as usual to serve breakfast to snowplow operators. Kim Lupien was the only one of the restaurant's six waitresses who made it to work, climbing through snowdrifts from her home nearby.
