It's a bit sad that's there's only one episode left. I felt like there could be more. Can't wait to be able to read the light novels. (Also, I'm actually watching season 2 first before season 1, if that matters. >_>')
So far, so good. The rebellion thing was a bit random though, but maybe it's an important part of the end. It's not that impossible to think that there is a rebellion after seeing what that town is going through.
Well, it's a 9/10. Can't wait to see how this concludes. I hope Holo doesn't really depart from Lawrence, but it looks like that could really happen.

I actually think that Lawrence has finally beaten Horo on the wisdom and maturity scale in this episode.
Horo's concerns are very reflective of a Japanese aesthetic inherited from Buddhism. "The World is Passing, All Things Fade, etc." That's why Horo has been asking "Why don't you act the way you used to? How come i don't startle you or make you anxious anymore?"
Its like Horo just wants to experience the very beginning of a relationship, when people acts like stupid crazy kids in love, or some such. For the more scientifically inclined, she wants her Dopamine high. She seems to think that stagnation/decline are the only things in store for the relationship. Maybe things will get old, maybe it won't be as fun, maybe they'll end up fighting and :gasp: hating each other.
Better to have an idealized portrait of the fun times than deal with the unknown.
Lawrence, IMHO, sees a different outcome thanks to his talk with the Nun. Like Rigolo, it is the humble patient daily pursuit of a dream that makes Lawrence tick.
Rigolo's garden is green all year (a defiance of the decline of all things is it not?), not by happenstance or luck or a blessing. He did that through sheer effort in his pursuit of happiness.
I think Lawrence finally caught onto this, let's hope Horo does the same.

Just getting started on the ep, but... Bad guys' faces, bad guys' laughs... How could it possibly end well?
Additional remarks:
- even if it had ended well, would Lawrence truly be happy setting up shop in that town? That's was my thought before the other shoe dropped at last. Seriously, aside from the waitress and maybe Rigolo and his friend, it just didn't seem like a nice place. Whether it's government or the potential partners, it just seems so unpleasant.
- the end was oddly comforting. Sure, it's too bad for Lawrence and Horo they got caught up in it. But at least they didn't get betrayed. Abe even went to warn them. And, mostly, I'm happy for the commoners. Sure, a lot of them are going to die. Order's already breaking down, so a lot of innocents are going to be killed, raped, and stolen from (not necessarily in that order). But hell, they'd been toyed with a bit too much. That bishop wanted to starve them for some obscure political advantage? I hope they gut that bastard.

Well wow, I did not expect that. Came out of nowhere but they were foreshadowing the political and social turmoil in the town for a while so I should have expected that.
How much of this Abe could sense? The deal seems like a good deal on the surface but if she knew that something like this would have happened, it would have made the deal a lot less favourable. And we finally find out what the deal with the statues are. So does that mean Abe made a much bigger profit because salt is a lot cheaper than stone?
Although the drama starts, one good thing that might end up happening is that Lawrence has an excuse to continue with his journey since the deal fell through.

Well, the good news is there probably will be a third season.. assuming the ratings don't tank suddenly or anything. Now to wait, very patiently...

First thing: the way your wrote it, one could understand that if you borrow 250k and you have 700k of home equity, defaulting on the 250k causes you to lose 700k worth of house. This is just not so. If you default on your 250k debt, the house must be sold, and the creditor gets paid off from the proceeds of the sale. If there is any money left after the sale, the owner gets to keep that money. So if you default on the 250k and the house (initially valued at 700k) sells for 650k, your creditor gets 250k, and you get the remaining 400k. The creditor isn't entitled to any more than what they are owed.
Second: you make it sound like the collateral must be worth more than the loan. In fact, the value of the collateral has a very loose relationship to the amount of the loan. Typically, in fact, the collateral is worth less than the loan. The point of the collateral is to reduce the risk to the lender, not to eliminate it. So for example, a lender who lends you 800k without any collateral can lose up to 800k; if they lend you that against a 700k house in collateral, then they can only lose 800k minus the value of the house (which may go up or down).
I have to rewatch the episode to work out the details, but if I recall correctly, Lawrence gets a 2000 silver loan with Horo as collateral. This by itself doesn't say much about Horo's value as a slave, but assuming that Lawrence tries to borrow as much as Derrink is willing to lend on that collateral, they value Horo at less than 2000 silver.

Now that's a good episode!
If it wasn't 1:30, and I was more coherent, I'd probably explain why a bit better. But Horo wanting to leave Lawrence while they both have good memories... so... sad. Thank god it looks like Lawrence figured out the "if it's important to you, keep fighting anyway" thing right at the end... Like hell he should let her go!
That and his tail-touch. Somehow it didn't seem like that hurt her...
Oh and no actual selling of Horo, big plus there.

I just wanted to give my idea, because I haven't seen any body post about it yet...though maybe it's just commonly thought of already, I don't know.
Some people have said the rebellion came out of nowhere, and they were like, wtf?
But wasn't it building? You see the warring sides. The populace on one side, and the supporters of the church on the other. For the church, we already know the bishop is corrupt, and has shady deals to increase his financial margin on his way to greater power. Then we know that the church in this town can't treat it's people properly, as all they are doing is shady dealings.
One such deal was Abe. Instead of Abe raising profit margins through selling the salt statues, what if it was the church who had directed her to do so? In order for them to increase their profits, they wanted to statues sold to the townspeople. But when this years expedition was canceled, they kicked Abe out, because she wouldn't be able to give them that much of a profit gain.
As for the townsfolk, lets say that on top of them being fed up with the church "killing" any who oppose it, they come to realize the statues given by the church were salt and not stone? Then they would realize how much they were paying for them, versus how much they were worth, on top of that the church itself would have been desecrating the image or whatever. All this would of course lead to such a rebellion.
Then the merchants who want the furs and stuff. They all looked shady and stuff, but for them to be behind the rebellion, I can't see it. Merchants have places to go, profits to make, etc. They would never stay and fight in a rebellion unless the profits were enormous. Right? And what could they gain by fighting? Some cheaper furs? and what could they lose? Their lives. Really easily. It's a revolution after all. I'm pretty sure most of the merchants high tailed it and ran, and the fight is between the villagers and their church.

It's bread riots that start rebellions, not people disappearing. In this case, the government is interfering with the main trade of the town - what most people live on, directly or indirectly. The cancellation of the expedition already hit them hard, and the church is making it worse by imposing stupid conditions on the deals.

Well Lawrence's instinct was right on here. Things never go completely well for him and Horo. There is degree of bad but it's never a smooth trip. How fun would that be :P? At least this riot should get in the way of selling Horo. Unless those guys decide to force the agreement. But in this situation everyone will be running around in a panic. The tricky thing is getting to the inn and getting their cart. Save the horse!

This anime season has gone way too quickly, I can't believe we're nearing the end already. Soon I'll be back to my daily visits to the novel translations hoping for updates.

Next episode should end vol 5, I think the first bit of 6 is translated, but after that withdrawal will set in quick...
I hope next season gets 26 eps. This show most certainly deserves a full season.

Ride Home 3/8: Chicken tender is the night
Anyway, I rode down Nebraska and through the neighborhood and down past MacArthur to the CCT. It's pretty suburban up that way, but the roads were fairly empty and I didn't have to contend with anyone trying to get their Saab home at 45 miles per hour on quiet residential streets. I did have to contend with speed bumps, which I also suppose have to contend with the speeding Saabs. No one thinks about what the speed bumps have to go through. Poor speed bumps.
The Capital Crescent Trail is named about Capital Crescent, who I believe was a burlesque dancer popular with congressmen in the 1950s. Or perhaps, it's named after it's shape as it runs from Silver Spring (sort of) through Bethesda (a city named after the mother of a 1950s southern congressman) and along the Potomac down into the District along Canal Road and to K Street, which is named after the letter K. It's a pleasant path and shaded and makes for a quick route that's essentially antithetical to the city streets that I'd normally take. Also, before 4 o'clock, it's the prime pathway for those hastening their senectitude, whether hastening it on foot or on bicycle. It's also rather melanin deficient. Did I just allude that it was full of old, white people? Well, I didn't elude it.
[The B story line on tonight's Dance Moms is the making of a beef jerky commercial for a meat store in Canton, Ohio. You cant/shouldn't make this stuff up. Or if you can, maybe you should be a producer for Dance Moms. Also, Chloe has hipster glasses. This warranted an "oh my God" from the Official Wife. And she rewound the DVR for me so I could see.]
The wind wasn't so bad on the CCT, but when I turned along the river down by the Kennedy Center, it really started picking up. I'm terrible at estimating windspeed or direction, because after all, I'm not a metal chicken, but I can tell you that the wind was sufficiently strong to make me go slower than I would have without it. I don't mind headwinds too much (because, really, what are you going to do?) and I especially didn't mind it today. Perhaps a bicyclist with some more pride in the power that he or she generates would be a bit more chagrined by moving forward at the pace of a metal chicken, but that's not me. I was just happy to not be on a bus.
It wasn't Bernoulli's Principle, I think, that caused me to almost fall off the trail and into the road upon exiting the tunnels along Rock Creek, but I'm pretty sure it was just the bluster of the wind recommencing. (Recommencing is what you do with you finish a Masters. Trust me- I work in higher ed). Along Ohio Drive, I saw a bunch of superbiker types probably leaving Hain's Point. Many of them had bicycle shirts that advertised either a branch of the military or a brand of alcohol. Good thing I blended in with my Coast Gaurd Reserve Reserve. Never reserve a reverse. Instead, re-serve it. Perhaps at a recommencement party. Also along Ohio Drive, I saw some guys playing cricket. I was nearly bowled over. That's a cricket pun. I'm the Brian Lara of bike commuter bloggers. I wondered how they bowled with it being so windies.
A Japanese tour group by the cherry blossoms. Sorry dudes. A couple weeks too early.
The Anacostia River Walk "trail" was pretty easy. The fish market smelled fishy, but what else is new? I decided to take the new 4th street, SW bike lane and here's what I have to say about that: at least, they're sort of wide. The new lanes (between I and School Street, not D) are easily double the width of the 34th street lanes. Is there no guidance as to the size of bike lanes? Not that I'm complaining. If the street is wide enough to accommodate a wider bike lane, I will gladly take it. And yes, the pavement and man hole covers are indeed terrible, but this is why I ride a steel cyclocross bike and not one made of toothpicks and mini-marshmallows. Or at least, I won't until they come with disc brakes.
There are sharrows on Jefferson, at least by the National Gallery. I don't know how far they go.
When I got to Safeway, a guy, who I believe had a French accent, asked me about my rear rack. Inside, at the checkout, a little girl tried to steal my cherry tomatoes before I was able to bag them. So, that's what happend at Safeway.
Friday coffee club tomorrow. Woo.

You have to go in the opposite direction along the CCT if you want wind. Its usually not to bad on the hill from the Dalecarlia down to Fletchers because you're up off the water, but heading westbound along the flats (ie. from Georgetown out to Fletchers) can be a real slog on a windy day.ReplyDelete

I was going to ride down to my first Swings bike friday this morning but when I opened the door I realized: (1) it will take 2 seconds and no pedaling to be blown SE from NW in that NW bluster (2) the extra ride back NW & NWer to Bethesda would be too disheartening. Instead, my wife made our usual fantastic coffee purchased from Peregrine & freshly burr ground (even wakes the cat up - the burr grinder, not the coffee)

Smiling warmly, surrounded by charity workers, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are clearly in welcoming surroundings.
The picture was taken in one of the countries where they feel most at home - Namibia.
It was there that in May 2006, the Hollywood super couple welcomed daughter Shiloh.
In fact, Angelina has Shiloh's birthplace coordinates tattooed on her arm - as she does with her other children.
And now the Shiloh Jolie-Pitt Foundation – created by the stars in 2006 – has teamed up with local NGO N/a'an ku se Lodge to support wildlife and vulnerable people.
At Christmas the family even returned to show their commitment to the project.
They helped feed and care for orphaned baby baboons and foxes and even witnessed the release of a leopard back into the wild.

GRUB Legacy install fails
Subject description: Wary Puppy 5.5 Full Install to HD leaves /boot/grub EMPTY
Trying numerous attempts to reinstall Linux on older laptop, dual-booting w/ XP. Used to work, updating linux partition clobbered it; finally resorted to reformat of linux ptn to try complete reinstall of pup. Fairly straight HD setup: WinXP on P1; FAT32 on P2, started out as restoration ptn, degenerated to just catch-all accessible from Win or Linux; Ext4 on P3 for linux; Swap on P4.
Tried linux reinst 1st from thumbdrive, but things from that boot didn't seem to be working: NONE of the calculators worked when I needed ONE; install to HD SEEMED to work but the GRUB installer wouldn't work, so I tried anew from CD, starting w/ reformat of P3.
Just like from thumb drive, puppy install looked like it worked but when I tried to run the GRUB installer wizard NONE of its menu options would actually DO anything: not the header creator, not the linux boot option, not the Win boot option, not the View Config So Far, not NOTHING, and most importantly, there is NOTHING IN THE /boot/grub/ directory to show for the effort.
Attempted bootup from the HD then yields just THIS:
GRUB Loading Stage1.5.
GRUB loading, please wait...
Error 15
Few attempts to interrupt bootup and grab GRUB manually have been unsuccessful (by repeatedly hitting keys at POST)
So now I've managed to clobber my MBR, it seems, so that it won't boot ANYTHING without a CD or thumbdrive, so this is a FINE MONDAY MORNING SO FAR!!!!!!
Anyone recognize anything here?

Exactly how are you doing the install of Puppy?
Frugal or full install?
Are you trying to install Grub while still running Puppy from the CD or USB?
I use Grub4dos bootloader config to install a boot loader. For me it seems to work better.
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

Very small chance ext 4 format could be causing issues. You could try ext 3 format.

Subject description: Problem-O Resolvedum
Well, in my endeavor to include any information that might have been pertinent, I did mention the FULL install (in original Subject Description); the timing of the attempted GRUB install might have been evident by the fact that it preceded the "subsequent reboot from HD," but that's admittedly not overmuch overt. Clearly stated or not, the simple fact is that in both cases (USB/thumb drive & CD installs) there was nothing but the GRUB Error 15 upon subsequent HD bootup.
Perhaps there's something to the Ext4 thing, but it seems an odd suspect for the symptoms I've observed.
Fact is, I found a FEW GRUB files that I had saved some time ago on the FAT partion #2, those being STAGE1, STAGE2 and an outdated MENU.LST. So I copied them to /boot/grub/ and added a TITLE entry for my Windoze boot option. That actually got the bootup PAST the ??can't find file?? Err15. So that made it look like I may have gotten enough of an install to the HD for Pup to thrive --
So I pulled out the Rescatux Super Grub Disk and used it to successfully "restore" my GRUB to something that actually WORKS now - by first running the Win/MBR restoration and then the addition of the puppy option to FINALLY have my dual-booting BACK IN OPERATION!!!!
As for the GRUB4DOS --- I've always ASSumed that to be inappropriate for a WinDoze booter; I wasn't ever trying to boot DOS in this case, but perhaps next time something like this arises I'll think to give the DOS version a try. After all, it's not like DOS is unfamiliar to me -- my first programming predated DOS by about a decade.
At any rate, I am grateful for your taking the time to help - I just happened to luck out with it before I found your reply.
Carry on - //
oh yeah - perhaps I should check to see if any of the calc utils work now from the HD bootup. Different topic, though, actually.
Very much relieved,

Bit of a misnomer from when it was originally targeted at being able to boot via the likes of windows 98 bootloader.
It actually performs all the grub 1 functions plus some and it can exist on windows and posix files systems and optical media. It can boot anything I have thrown at it so forget the DOS and see it as a general purpose all system versatile bootloader. It can be chainloaded from the windows 98/XP/7 boot loader or have its own MBR.

Subject description: Epilog
Following up on: 1) the original "GRUBCONFIG" failing to do ANYTHING, and 2) ALL of the clackulators failing when I needed one (from LIVE boot) -- that is, now that I'm installed to HD and successfully booting up either PUP OR WXP --
Re: 1) - although I didn't wish to risk clobbering my currently working GRUB, I thought I'd at least try the option to VIEW the GRUB config. Still NO sign of any sentient life inside GRUBCONFIG. NONE of the "menu" options actually seem to be doing ANYTHING...
Re: 2) Calculators miraculously WORKING now - laptop must have gotten all rested up. Of course, right now I'm not NEEDING any, but I'll sleep better at night just REALIZING that I have TOOLS!!!
So THANK YOU for nudging me along in a progressive direction -- I was about to start talking to myself (again).

Healthy People Programs
Healthy People Programs are a set of health objectives to be used by governments, communities, professional organizations, and others to help develop programs to improve health. It builds on initiatives pursued over the past two decades beginning with the 1979 Surgeon General's Report, Healthy People, Healthy People 2000: National Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Objectives, and Healthy People 2010. These established national health objectives and served as the basis for the development of state and community plans. These are administered by the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (ODPHP). Similar programs are conducted by other national governments.
Nutrition Policy
Governmental guidelines and objectives pertaining to public food supply and nutrition including recommendations for healthy diet and changes in food habits to ensure healthy diet.
Nerve Transfer
Surgical reinnervation of a denervated peripheral target using a healthy donor nerve and/or its proximal stump. The direct connection is usually made to a healthy postlesional distal portion of a non-functioning nerve or implanted directly into denervated muscle or insensitive skin. Nerve sprouts will grow from the transferred nerve into the denervated elements and establish contact between them and the neurons that formerly controlled another area.
Surgical Clearance
Process of evaluating the health of a patient and determining if they are healthy enough for surgery.
Healthy Diet
Dietary patterns which have been found to be important in reducing disease risk.

BRIDGEWATER, Mass. – A rally late in regulation would not be enough as the MIT women's lacrosse team fell to Bridgewater State College, 15-13, on Monday afternoon. The loss lowered the Engineers' ledger to 4-3 on the year.
Erica Little paced the visiting Engineers with three goals and two assists while Laura Wacker compiled four goals, three groundballs, two draw controls, and one caused turnover. Stephanie Leger added three goals as Kelly Duncan tallied five groundballs, two goals, and two draw controls. Lauren Rodda registered three groundballs, two draw controls, and two caused turnovers while Katie Kauffman chipped in two draw controls and a goal.
Courtney Lennon notched a game-best six points on four goals and two assists while Shannon Manning registered three goals and an assist. Katie DeMaio and Jenny Jones added three goals apiece for the Bears. Manning also recorded game-high totals of five draw controls and seven ground balls to go along with a pair of caused turnovers.
In net, Allison Hamilos turned aside 10 shots for the Cardinal and Gray as Meghan Griffin made a season-high 17 saves.
The Engineers spotted the Bears an early 3-0 lead before scoring five of the next six goals to move ahead, 5-4. Bridgewater would answer with a pair of goals by Manning and Patricia Maloney to end the half as BSC took a 6-5 advantage into the intermission. The Bears would not relinquish the lead for the remainder of the contest.
BSC would outscore the Engineers 8-5 over the first twenty minutes of the second half with Manning, Lennon and DeMaio each scoring twice. The Bears would open up a 14-10 lead on a DeMaio goal off an assist from Lennon at the 11:03 mark of the final stanza. Bridgewater would not score again until the final seconds as MIT went on a 3-0 run with Little scoring twice and Wacker tallying a goal at the 4:59 mark to pull the Engineers to within one at 14-13. Little had a chance to tie the game with 1:11 remaining but her shot sailed wide. Griffin then made a big save with 42 seconds left to play to preserve the slight edge. Jones scored with just seven seconds on the scoreboard off an assist from Kristin White to secure the victory.

April 23 through April 30, 2012
It's been a week of excess and pleasure. I often feel that way when we just eat well at home — trying new ingredients, adapting wonderful recipes to fit our needs, developing ideas for magazine articles, or simply opening that rare "convenience" food like the Butter Chicken we bought at Costco! But this week's tastes came from outside my home and into the kitchens of some of New York's best chefs and into a neighbor's home for a bona fide "Afternoon Tea." There was lunch at North End Grill (you can read more about it in my blog post "A Chef Among Chefs"), a contemporary new restaurant created by restaurant impresario Danny Meyer and chef Floyd Cardoz. Details of the meal are included there. The restaurant is located on a hidden street where you can peer onto the river across a sweeping grassy knoll — which is a memorial to Irish immigrants. It will be a wonderful area to explore once the weather is sunny and beckoning.
I am still thinking about an impromptu lunch with Max Falkowitz — the new New York editor of Serious Eats. We "dined" at Taboonette (the downtown offspring of the popular restaurant Taboon) and immensely enjoyed the Kruveet (taboon roasted cauliflower, grilled eggplant, hummus, tahini and cilantro), superb pulled pork with fennel-jicama-apple slaw, spicy cilantro mayo and chicharones, and lemon-cured baked salmon with za'atar oil, yogurt sauce, sumac and arugula. Wonderful coffee.
Dinner at RedFarm, Eddie Schoenfeld's new wildly imaginative Chinese-esque restaurant in the West Village. We were delighted to take the food editor and publisher of Israel's most important food magazine, Al Hashulchan, Janna and Ilan Gur. They were enamored by the array of extraordinary dumplings, the Kowloon filet mignon tarts, and Green Thai Curry.
A beautiful lunch at SD26. It has a very different feel at lunch — lighter and more whimsical — and I look forward to the outdoor seating which should appear shortly. The four of us were thrilled with a first course of freshly-flown in burrata surrounded by excellent San Daniele prosciutto. That, and an espresso, might have been enough for us: It was perfection. But we moved onto the house specialty "Uovo" — soft egg yolk-filled raviolo with truffle butter, homemade fettuccine with coriander-scented lamb ragu, fava beans and fresh mint, and shared a portion of succulent swordfish served with zucchini scapece, eggplant caviar, and fried tomatoes. Great tiramisu with espresso sauce. And would you believe that a two-course lunch is $28.
Lunch the next day at the Rubin Museum. It is not as good as it used to be but it is still an extraordinary institution (with very exciting programming) and a good place to "hang" if you want to hear your dining companion and sip good "white Earl Grey" tea.
And speaking of tea, it was a lovely surprise to attend a real tea party at the home of a neighbor to hear about the goings-on at the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music. Tea was poured at 4:00 p.m. and "catered" by Angela who specializes in tea parties! Tiny scones with delicious "raisin butter," cucumber and mint sandwiches, tiny croutes with curried chicken salad, fig pound cake, chocolate-dipped strawberries, and gorgeous truffles that looked like Christmas ornaments!
I also cooked dinner for friends, but more about that another time.
New: Beginning Wednesdays and Fridays, I will be sharing recipes from my archives! Stay tuned. Enjoy your week.

Welcome to the Vernal City Justice Court
Justice Courts are established by counties and municipalities and have the authority to deal with class B and C misdemeanors, violations of ordinances, small claims, and infractions committed within their territorial jurisdiction. Justice Court jurisdictions are determined by the boundaries of local government entitles such as cities or counties, which hire the judges.
There are two types of Justice Court judges: county judges who are initially appointed by a county commission and then stand for retention election every four years, and municipal judges who are appointed by city officials for a 4-year term. Some are both county and municipal judges. Some judges hear cases daily, and others have limited court hours each week. Justice Court judges need not be attorneys, although they receive extensive and continuing legal training. All Justice Court judges must attend 30 hours of continuing judicial education each year to remain certified. One hundred twenty-eight Justice Court judges serve in 147 county and municipal courts.

Texas Instruments Goes Legal On Calculator Hackers: How Dare You Make Our Product Better!
from the seriously? dept
This is a perfect example of how the DMCA is used by companies to prevent innovation, not to stop copying. Notice that there is no "copying" of any TI software going on here. It's just that in being able to run this software, apparently you need to bypass some protection measures that TI installed. Thus, TI claims, it's a circumvention and a violation of the DMCA. Of course, as the article (and various experts) note in the article, both the Copyright Office and the courts have often looked down on such blatant misuses of the DMCA, but for now the legal threats worked. The people contacted have removed the code.
Frankly, I can't fathom how this makes any sense at all for TI. Making its calculators more useful and interesting should only increase demand for the calculators. TI makes its money selling the physical product, not the software on the calculators. So what possible business rationale is there for stopping such hacking? It seems only sure to decrease the market, not increase it.

I can't help feeling so overwhelmed at the fact that The Captain's Kitchenette is having its very first ever guest post and that too by that person from whom I was inspired to start blogging in the first place. Nisha Thomas! I stumbled across her blog through my younger sister, Rachel, who is our common connection and then later came to know that she is cousin of my close buddy from college with whom I shared the same room and the same bench for three years, Indhu Thomas. It sure is a small world! We have been sharing a nice bond ever since. Nisha's blog Look Who's Cooking Too is one my favorite blogs and a huge inspiration for me like it is for many others. Her style of food photography and choice of recipes are very close to my heart and therefore it is such an honor to have her as my guest this month. A very warm welcome to The Captain's Kitchenette Nisha :) ! Handing over to you now.There are so many wonderful food blogs out there, that I find it difficult to browse through all the yummy recipes they post. I still manage to run through a few once in a while, and eventually end up with tonnes of recipes bookmarked. Serah's beautiful blog, The Captains Kitchenette, certainly falls into this category and its her simple, easy-to-follow recipes that makes me a fan. I landed up on her blog after her sister (we were hostel mates in Chennai) posted a link to a recipe on FB. I was immediately hooked. We then exchanged a couple of emails, became friends on FB and the rest is history. She's now more of a friend than a random food blogger and I hope some day I get to meet her and her lovely family she cooks for. I also have to appreciate her for taking time to cook, photograph and blog in spite of having a toddler to tend to. Like I was telling her the other day, I complain if I have to continuously cook for a week ;)
Since Serah was taking some time off to tend to other commitments, she asked me if I could do a guest post for her blog and I truly obliged. She gave me full leverage on what I could whip up and since she said she preferred sea food, I thought I'd make this prawn thokku for her. I came across the recipe on one of my recipe search sessions on the internet and immediately wrote it down (yes believe it or not, I actually wrote it down). Completely forgot to bookmark the page and so apologies to the person who originally posted it. I did try searching for it again, but since this was written down ages back, I really had no luck.hokku, loosely translated means paste, and I presume this is more of a Tamil Nadu preparation as opposed to the mallu (Kerala) way of making prawn roast. The use of fennel seeds make this dish quite unique, and of course something with grated coconut can never go wrong. This is a favourite prawn recipe of ours and has made its appearance on quite a few occasions. Although it goes well with some warm rice, dal and pappad, my favourite way to have it is as a starter with some chilled beer. Just thread it onto small skewers, sprinkle the masala on top, and serve. Its a crowd pleaser, trust me!
So without wasting your time any further, here is the recipe.
You will need:
Prawns- 250 gms
Shallots/ small onions- 1/2 cup, roughly chopped
Garlic- 4 pods, peeled and chopped
Green chillies- 2, chopped (add more for more heat)
Ginger- 1 1/2 inch piece, peeled and chopped
Tomato- 1 big, roughly sliced
Black peppercorns- 1 tsp
Fennel seeds- 1/2 tsp
Grated coconut- 1 1/2 tbsp
Cinnamon- 1 inch piece
Cloves- 4
Curry leaves- 2 to 3 sprigs (the more the better)
Coriander powder- 1 tbsp
Kashmiri chilly powder- 2 tsp
Turmeric powder- 1/4 tsp
Water- 1/2 cup
Oil- 4 tbsp
Salt- to taste
Coconut oil- 1 tsp (optional)
Lemon/ lime juice- approx. 1 tsp
Coriander leaves- to garnish
De-vein, wash the prawns, dab it dry with kitchen towels and keep aside.
Place a frying pan over low-medium heat and add around 1 tbsp of oil.
Once hot, throw in the shallots, garlic, green chillies and ginger and sauté till they turn golden brown. Keep stirring in between to avoid the onions getting burnt, which would affect the overall taste of the thokku.
Add the chopped tomato and continue cooking till they turn soft.
In goes the peppercorns, fennel seeds and grated coconut. Stirring continuously, cook the mix for about 2 to 3 minutes.
Transfer the contents into a bowl and leave aside to cool sufficiently.
Once cool, use a blender/ grinder to make a smooth paste. Try and avoid adding water, but if necessary a tsp or so wont do any harm.
Place the same frying pan back on medium heat and add the remaining oil.
Once hot, throw in the cinnamon, cloves and curry leaves. Stir for a couple of seconds till you get than nice aroma of spices.
At this stage tip in the ground ingredients and cook for a few minutes. It might splutter a bit in the beginning, so be careful.
Add the coriander, chilly, turmeric powders and salt, mix it all into the ground paste and cook, stirring on and off till the oil starts to surface.
Throw in the prawns and mix well, so its all coated in the masala.
Pour the 1/2 cup of water and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer till the prawns are cooked and the water has all been absorbed.
At this stage, you can drizzle the coconut oil (if using) and roast the prawns for a couple more minutes, or till the masala becomes dark and completely dry.
Transfer the prawns into a serving dish, garnish with some coriander leaves and just before serving squeeze some lemon juice over it and serve with some chilled beer or hot rice.
Notes: Shallots can be replaced with a big onion.
The first time I made this, it was unbelievable spicy because I added 4 green chillies. If you are brave, go ahead and increase the number of chillies or use the spicy red chilly powder instead of Kashmiri chilly powder
Using coconut oil is purely optional, but it did give that distinct taste overall.
Make sure you dont over cook the prawns, as they can become really rubbery and chewy. If using pre-cooked prawns, then add it only once most of the water has been absorbed, but the masala is wet and not completely dry. That way the prawns don't over cook in the gravy, but at the same time gets smothered in the masala as well.

Through Mr. Carson's telephone conversations with Mrs. Crabb, and also a visit here in 1980 he verified that Mrs. Crabb's streetcar turned cottage was indeed the official car which opened service here and, in fact, it is the only one of its era in the United States.
He recently returned for another look at the streetcar and during his visit said, "the trolley has a real history. That any of it survives is a miracle." Subsequently, Mrs. Cheokas, also an artist, was teaching youngsters in an art class at the local library, discussed the streetcar with library officials, who expressed a desire to have it, provided Mrs. Crabb wanted to give it away.
More conversations ensued between Mrs. Cheokas and Mrs. Crabb who said she was willing to donate the streetcar to the library. Jane Hendrix, director of the library and June Ewing, chairman of the board, brought the subject up at a board of trustees meeting and later two of the library's board members went to the river site to investigate the possibility of whether the artifact would be worth saving and bringing back to house on the library property. Their recommendation was positive.
Some months before Mrs. Crabb had listed her river property containing the streetcar with a real estate agent, and the property was sold to Robert Pilcher of Ellaville. At that time Mrs. Cheokas started the "ball rolling," with the creation of the "Trolley Trust" to save the little streetcar for its future home at Lake Blackshear Regional Library.
"I'm overwhelmed at how fast Anna worked to get things moving," said Mrs. Crabb.
In a period of less than two weeks, Mrs. Cheokas enlisted the services of a number of people and firms who volunteered their time and services to further the restoration of the trolley.
Johnny Shiver of Shiver Lumber Co. volunteered to transport it to town. Mr. Pilcher, the new owner of the property, assisted in dismantling the wings on either side of the structure so that it could be moved, and officials at South Georgia Technical Institute, Dea Pounders, President, Johnny Johnson, and Willie Yarbrough promises a place at the educational complex on Souther Field Road to house the trolley for the restoration work.
Mr. Carson was impressed with the efforts of preserving the historic streetcar after meeting with Mrs. Crabb, Mrs. Cheokas, Miss Hendrix, and others of the group at the river site. He said, "What all of these people are doing is volunteering their time and their efforts epitomizes the community spirit here in Sumter County, and shows their appreciation of their heritage."
In the beginning, the work was done by South Georgia Tech carpentry students as a class project under the supervision of Willie Yarbrough, carpentry instructor, using the design and guideline renderings of the original trolley supplied by Gene Carson.
The students worked on the restoration project as time permitted. They uncovered the original pine flooring that rand the length of the car, still intact, after removing layer after layer of roofing. In its refurbishing, the carpentry students used as many of the original parts of the cars as possible, but many of the support side posts and overhead rafters had deteriorated and replacements were custom made according to the specifications by Shiver Lumber Co. and installed.
Because the restoration was meticulous and went slowly, South Georgia Tech master craftsman, Harold Cromer, who has done all of South Georgia Tech's carpentry work for many years, accepted President Dea Pounder's challenge to complete the restoration efforts.
He took over in the summer of 1989 researching the project, and then traveling to New Haven, Conn. to consult with Mr. Carson. He toured the trolley museum there in an effort to familiarize himself with electric trolley cars from the same era as the one in Americus. He began the arduous task of refinishing the project after returning to South Georgia Tech, armed with information, old pictures, and diagrams.
Having never worked on a project of this type before, it was "trial and error" at first, says Mr. Cromer. He enclosed the car, cutting the wood to size, installed workable windows and sliding doors, and virtually returning the structure to its original form.
"It (the project) has probably been the most complicated one I've ever tackled," said Mr. Cromer, "but I continued to work on it because I wanted to prove that I could. I want the trolley to look like the exact original as much as possible."
From the trolley's origin in Philadelphia more than a century ago, through its intended use as a passenger car in this Southwest Georgia City to the present, the trolley has weathered the ravages of time. It has now been preserved as a historical community treasure.

A classic relic of the past
With its bold and colorful motif
For years neglected and forgotten
Will again grace our times
As it did in memories past.
Its years were few – its life was brief
Still so fulfilling
Offering a convenience to all
As it moved with dramatic flair
From street to street.
The overhead cable sparkled
As it imparted wondrous power
Capturing the imagination of the young
Who anxiously came aboard
Eager for the lengthy ride.
And as it made its daily run
This trudging boxy shape
With its gentle features and iron rails
Made a spectacular display.
These fond remembrances recapture
The charm and beauty of a time
Which is reason enough to welcome and preserve
This daring and magnificent device
That was so worthy of its day.

An innocent country farmer experiences a number of improbable misadventures that culminate in a battle against the titular beast in this broadly comic fantasy.
The first solo outing of director Terry Gilliam, who served as animator and co-director on Monty Python and the Holy Grail, returns to the medieval setting that had previously served him so well, and brings along fellow Pythonite Michael Palin for the ride as reluctant hero Dennis Cooper.
Cooper's journey to defeat the fearsome Jabberwock is filled with a similar combination of traditional fairy-tale narrative and irreverent humor, which at times aims to be even raunchier than classic Python fare.
But while the film is too awkward and repetitive to succeed, it does boast impressively grungy medieval sets and costumes, and flashes of the visual brilliance that would characterize Gilliam's more mature works.

High-frequency trading firms are reportedly exploiting a hidden loophole at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange to gain a crucial head start against other traders in the futures market.
Continue Reading Below
The report is likely to add fuel to the ongoing debate about whether or not the current market structure is tipped against retail investors in favor of sophisticated firms that deploy speedy trading technology.
According to The Wall Street Journal, high-frequency traders are attempting to capitalize on an ability to discover when their own trades for commodities are executed before the rest of the market is able to see the trades.
While the data advantage may only consist of one to 10 milliseconds, that is enough for these speedy traders to profit on the information, the Journal reported.
One high-frequency trading firm, Jump Trading of Chicago, told the paper that sophisticated traders have known about the loophole for years and have incorporated the information into their trading strategies.
While critics will say this represents an unfair advantage for favored customers, high-speed trading defenders say they have invested huge sums of money on advanced technology and their trades provide badly-needed liquidity to the market.
In an emailed statement, CME Group (NYSE:CME), the parent of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, acknowledged that out of more than 300 million messages that come into its platform daily, "there may be times when customers experience a latency of a few milliseconds between the time they receive their trade confirmations and when that information is accessible on the public feed."
The exchange said it will continue to address this issue and has already taken steps to reduce order response times and limit variability within and across asset classes. "Our goal is to bring variability as close to zero as possible," CME said.
High-frequency trading has come under greater scrutiny in recent years as it continues to represent a larger chunk of overall trading and amid a number of high-profile glitches in the market, highlighted by the May 2010 flash crash.
Security software maker Symantec (NASDAQ:SYMC) experienced a mini flash crash on Tuesday that briefly wiped out about $1.7 billion in market capitalization in just seconds due to an erroneous trade, something critics blamed on the current system's complex and fragmented structure.
Even though the Commodities Futures Trading Commission has boosted oversight of high-speed trading, the CME's loophole isn't a current area of focus, the Journal reported.

Three steps to faster, more accurate service resolution
Close the ITOM–ITSM communication and process gap by connecting TrueSight monitoring and event intelligence with BMC Helix Remedy to prevent or resolve issues before they affect your business.
- Eliminate manual incident creation. Incident tickets are triggered when events are detected by your performance management solution.
- Identify root cause and optimize ticket routing. Infrastructure performance issues trigger an incident ticket and associate it directly with specific configuration items in your configuration management database (CMDB).
- Understand and communicate business impact. If you've defined service or application models in your CMDB, incident tickets will be triggered whenever the availability of a particular business service is going to be impacted.

i got the whole outfit to do shellac at home and i'm honestly pretty obsessed. i'll give you a run down of what i got (maybe there are cheaper/better options, but i am really happy with what i have)
i got this lamp. i like it because it has room for two hands (or feet) to be cured at the same time.
this cnd shellac brand base coat
and this cnd top coat
i got a mix of both gelish and cnd colors (both seem to work great and you can use gelish with the cnd system) the benefit to the gelish polish is that there are many more colors to choose from and the bottle is twice as big. be careful though, i cant stop buying polish. it's become an addiction and i literally want every color. they are on the spencey side though.
basically the process is super easy and really fast.

Guide To Fixing Common Focus Bonnet Lock Problem.
RAB2000 replied to Brigante's topic in Ford Focus GuidesHi Habbers Look for my comments earlier on the thread. My lock also appeared to be the LHD kit. I was able to buy the plastic arm off ebay for a few pounds so avoided fitting a whole new kit. If you've already bought the kit then you could take it back? Or sell it on Ebay? Either way I'd suggest just replacing the arm rather than the whole lock. I can see the arm is still for sale on Ebay £5 delivered. Item description on Ebay is "Ford Focus bonnet catch - latch handle - arm"
Battery Drain On Mk2 Tdci
RAB2000 posted a topic in Ford Focus ClubHi I've owned my 2005 Focus 2.0 TDCi Ghia Estate for 4 years now and throughout that time it's had a battery drain. I unhook the negative terminal and the car doesn't get used in the week so have never got round to sorting it out. Fortunately the car doesn't seem to mind, although the bonnet lock does.... I've posted about that elsewhere. Anyway, a couple of years ago I got as far as buying a multimeter and hooked it up but didn't get much further than comfirming, yes there's a drain. So, finally spent sometime pulling fuses over the last few weeks and have got to this stage: (all measured on the 10A scale) 0.54A - Immediately after closing door and locking car 0.38A - After about 5-10 seconds (interior lights go off) 0.23A - After about 10 minutes (dashboard goes off) So 0.23A (or 230mA) is my background level it seems, a lot more than around 50mA or less as being what would be considered normal and hence why if left connected the battery drops enough to not be able start after perhaps a week or less even. So on to pulling fuses. First up was the central fuse box in the passenger footwell. The main one being the F80 fuse (down as battery saver / interior lights), this dropped my drain from 0.23A to 0.13A so a signification part of my drain but not all of it. The F46 fuse (audio) seems to use up 0.01A so not concerned by that. So next was the auxillary fuse box under the bonnet (will the F80 fuse above removed). All was fine except for the big fuses F3 and F4. If I removed the F3 fuse first I'd drop to 0.06A and then F4 fuse afterwards it would then be down to 0.00A. If I did it the other way, remove F4 first it would drop to 0.11A and then remove F3 to get to 0.00A again. So overall it is the F80 fuse in the central fuse box and the F3 and F4 fuses in the auxillary box. The F3 and F4 are marked up as 'central fuse box / ignition relays). I think they do override the central fuse box but I already know the issue there. Maybe this suggests it's the ignition that is the problem. Going to get the car serviced by Ford next week I think (it's long over due) so wondering whether to give them this information and see if they can resolve it. I'd be ok throwing £100-200 at this to be fixed but any more and it's not worth it as can continue on as I am - the cars got 145k on it (previous owner mostly!). Anyway, would be great if anyone has any suggestions on the F80 central fuse and the F3 / F4 fuses in the auxillary box. Thanks!

Guide To Fixing Common Focus Bonnet Lock Problem.
RAB2000 replied to Brigante's topic in Ford Focus GuidesA further update. I have found some more information and the bonnet lock system on my FF Mk2 is the LHD kit. Quite why it was fitted is a mystery, I have only owned the car since 2009 and it's a March 2005 car. Anyway, if anyone does have the LHD kit on their car then like the RHD kit you should be able to purchase the whole kit, like this: However, it's only the plastic connector that was needed. This maybe available from Ford but by good fortune I found a seller on Ebay selling them at £4 + £1 P&P so I bought two and it works. I don't know if the Ebay one is genuine or not but doesn't really matter. The company selling these on Ebay is Locoser Limited (email email@example.com)
I Have had success with finding this part. See my response on the bonnet lock repair guide thread.
Guide To Fixing Common Focus Bonnet Lock Problem.
RAB2000 replied to Brigante's topic in Ford Focus GuidesMore internet searching and Ford part number 4549268 may be it. Only costs £2 to £3 so could be it but may be a small part for the system with the security. I can't find a picture of this part anywhere.
Guide To Fixing Common Focus Bonnet Lock Problem.
RAB2000 replied to Brigante's topic in Ford Focus GuidesA few more pics. This shows the plastic rod connected at the 'car' end. It simply clips on and off: At the other end the rod has broken with one of the plastic clip arms broken off: At the moment I've botched a repair by putting the grill back in place (no clips!) and then taping an allen key to the plastic rod long enough to go through the grill and I can open the bonnet again with the grill in place. A very temporary repair!
Guide To Fixing Common Focus Bonnet Lock Problem.
RAB2000 replied to Brigante's topic in Ford Focus GuidesHere's a picture of my lock mechanism. The lock end of the plastic rod has broken. If you hold the whole rod you can turn it left and right to unlock the bonnet. So no security system here.
Guide To Fixing Common Focus Bonnet Lock Problem.
RAB2000 replied to Brigante's topic in Ford Focus GuidesHi I had a bonnet lock problem with my Focus Mk2 and thought it might be useful for people to know that pick up on this handy thread. I also have a couple of queries that someone may be able to help with! Anyway, I have a 2005 Focus Mk2 2.0 TCDi Ghia Estate and it doesn't have the bonnet mechanism shown in this thread but has the one shown in this thread (so I'm not the only one - perhaps it's Euro spec or early Mk2?): http://www.fordownersclub.com/forums/topic/37142-bonnet-lock-ff-mk2/?p=248147 I've had my car for 4 years now and seems to suffer from a battery drain so rather than fix the drain, I disconnect the battery each time. I have bought a multimeter and came to the conclusion that yes there is a drain but yet to do anything about it. It has an old Nokia phone kit which is still fitted so might remove that. I only use the car at weekends so actually it's not that much hassle to do what I'm doing, hence lazy to repair. The bad news is the overuse of the bonnet I suppose. Not great when your battery is disconnected and you can't get in! Anyway, I assumed I had the same issue as discussed here and got myself armed with a long rod to try and do the click tecnique but with a torch I noticed that mine didn't look like that. In end I went for the grill removal technique and managed to break the rivets (mostly!) and with a bit of brute force it came out in one piece although I think I broke a few bits of plastic on the 'slam panel' but it's re-usable. Once inside I could then turn the rod (pictures to follow with a bit of luck) connected to the car end by hand as it had broken off the back of the lock. The car was back in action. So, what I need is a new plastic rod connecting the lock end to the car end. It clips on each end so easy to replace. I suspect it's not available as a single item but perhaps as a whole system. However, the only one available seems to be the one discussed on this thread. Any one any ideas? Also, where's the best place to get the plastic rivet/plugs/screws that hold the grill in place (particularly the ones at each end that can't be seen. Many thanks. Will no try and add a pic or two.
Hi I have the same bonnet lock system on my FF Mk2. Will reply on the 'how to' thread but if anyone knows whether the part shown in the above picture can be bought anywhere that would be great! Thanks.

ROCHESTER — Divorce rates in the Granite State are on the rise according to recent U.S. Census Bureau figures and some of the communities with the highest and lowest rates are located in the Seacoast and Tri-City regions.
Released American Community Survey (ACS) data from 2011 shows Alton with 35.8 percent of its residents age 15 or older are divorced, the highest rate in the state. Suissevale is second with 28.1 percent, Enfield with 26 percent, Lancaster with 25.5 percent and Wolfeboro with 24.7. Contrastingly, the community with the lowest divorce rate is Durham, with 2.1 percent, followed by Hanover with 4.1.
According to divorce rates throughout the state, ACS 5-year estimates from 2007 to 2011 show New Hampshire has a divorce rate of 11.6 percent in all, a number which has been steadily on the rise. Estimates from 2006 to 2010 were at 11.4 percent and from 2005 to 2009 were at 11.3 percent, as recorded population numbers have also been increasing.
Senior Attorney John Kalled, of Kalled Law Offices, PLLC, in both Portsmouth and Ossipee, said he's observed an uptick in calls to his office since 2008, and attributes much of that to the start of the economic recession.
"I don't think Carroll or Belknap County are seeing a sharp increase as compared with other locales in New Hampshire," Kalled said. "I think it is fair to say that ever since the economic recession was triggered by the events of 2008, as people face increasingly hard financial pressures, those pressures add to and worsen the pressures that already exist in a marriage."
Many family law experts point to variety of factors that can contribute to a married couple filing for divorce. According to a research paper released by the Utah State University Cooperative Extension, factors include age, education and income. They say the likelihood of divorce decreases dramatically if a couple waits until they are 21 to marry, if both parties have at least some college education, and have at least $50,000 as an annual household income. The study also says 40 to 50 percent of all first marriages end in divorce or permanent separation, and the likelihood of divorce in a second marriage is higher, at 60 percent.
Kalled said his office doesn't base its data on its socioeconomic status of clients so he couldn't say if these statistics applied specifically to New Hampshire couples. But he said in most cases, couples get divorced because it's the best decision for them.
"Maybe it's due to the changing face of the population in central and southern New Hampshire … (but) I don't see it. If somebody's in a marriage that is very troubled, especially if they have kids, it's more of a human criteria," he said. "'How much can a person take?' It really doesn't mater whether they're a high school graduate or have a PhD in recombinant DNA. It doesn't matter."
Associate Attorney Laurie Lacoste with the Law Offices of Stephen C. Brown & Associates, based out of Rochester, said while she, too, has taken on more cases of divorce in the last few years, today she is also coming across couples who elect to stay together and try to make it work simply because the legal process is too costly. Lacoste said it depends on the attorney and the circumstances of a case, but typically a divorce can cost anywhere between $10,000 and $20,000.
"Given the way the economy is right now, the way it is, most people can't afford a lawyer," she said, noting there are alternatives available and most times, people elect to represent themselves in court. She estimates in her 20 years of experience, approximately 75 percent of people represent themselves.
In the few months since she has worked in Rochester, Lacoste has handled a lot of cases coming out of the Lilac City as well as Dover. Rochester has a divorce rate of 14.8 percent while Dover has a rate of 12 percent, according to ACS figures. Portsmouth has a rate of 13.2 percent and Exeter is slightly higher with 15.2 percent. Compare that to the county rates, where Belknap County and Carroll County hover around 13.5 percent, Strafford County has an 11.1 percent divorce rate and Rockingham County stands at 10.4.
Kalled said in all, it is difficult to point to reasons as to why one community may have a higher divorce rate than another.
"There's a constant pool of people who have unhealthy marriages," he said. "Most times, they can tolerate it, but when you have powerful financial draw, you're losing your home (and) you're losing your job, sometimes that's all that's needed to push an already troubled relationship over the edge."
The Huffington Post reports even a Norwegian study published last year says heterosexual couples where men share in household work are 50 percent more likely to divorce from their partners.
"You've got to remember when the subject of divorce in America comes up, the people who have more conventional views think of divorce as a bad and evil thing. (They think) it's the product of spiritual vacuousness," Kalled said. "And I don't find that to be true at all. I think that most marriages in America have more than a few stressors. A lot of people in America have no idea really how to be in a marriage … I think basically the pivot point really is more the personal tolerance level of the people involved and once you reach that and pass that tolerance level, than it really doesn't matter what the drivers are. They're going to march down to that courthouse and pick up the phone and call a lawyer."

Deen are like J.C Staff when it comes to animation, churn out a lot of average to good crap and than surprise you with something great every now and than (Simoun for DEEN, Shigofumi for J.C Staff). I don't think either company as far as tv series go has produced anything better in the last 4-5 years than R.O.D TV which they both worked on.

Ah, it doesn't seem too bad. I personally didn't like the screenshots I saw of Yuki, though I know that Yui Horie will make it all fine.
I was quite fond of the Higurashi-esque random blood splots that came sporadically throughout the trailer, though.

I've read all the volumes released in English, so I'm definitely interested. However, I'm kind of cautious of watching the anime because studio Deen is handling it. When I think of Deen I always think back to the first season of Higurashi. The animation was and they took out a lot of subtle-but nonetheless-important scenes. Also looking at the trailer I can't help but think that it makes it look like some kind of dating game or whatever those are called. It's probably because of the animation. Right now my standards for the anime is low but if studio Deen proves me wrong then alright.

Hmm, seems like some of the names were spelled differently (or downright wrong) in the promo vid. The most glaring (to me anyways) was Kaname's last name. They had it as Clan and not Kuran. Personally, I prefer Kuran. Clan...is just bad.
The opening song isn't bad at all. I think it fits VK quite well.

Images up to now...looks good. But can the actual anime be as good as those images ;~;
I haven't seen a good anime from studio DEEN, so I dont have my hopes up too high.
Opening song seems fitting to the anime, but I would think an opening by Ali Project would be more suitable, some dark feeling to it

I have already watched the teaser trailer in which the TV-sized version of the opening song plays along.
During the last three months, I have seen and heard this title receiving much hype due to the popularity of the manga.
It is because of how much Vampire Knight has been restlessly discussed on the forums, that I have decided to pick up this title for the spring season.
Definitely shoujo quality judging at the focus invested upon the details to the eclecticism and depth of the eyes.
I have a general understanding of what the plot is about, as well that they'll be using the entire voice cast from the Drama CD's in the anime.
About which group should be best for the opening song, I do not deny that ALI Project would have made wonders with the performance for the music themes.
Though I like the singer, the morbid and gothic dramatization of the opening song would be nicely complemented if Yousei Teikoku (Noble Roar, Innocent Venus OP theme; Shijun no Zankoku, Venus Versus Virus ED theme) performs the ending song for Vampire Knight.

Guess its not just me that thinks Ali Project's songs sounds similar to each other ;P despite I still think it fits with the anime. The opening isn't bad, but most chances I wont be addicted to it.

I actually do think the OP song fits the show quite nicely. Of course i;m sure more people will start to think that once hearing it with the OP animation once it starts airing, though for now i rather like it.

A new trailer finally shows a bit of animation.
I actually really liked how the day class uniforms looked. There are so many pretty elements in the manga that I feel you don't realize how gorgeous the uniforms are until you see them colored here . There were also a few new shots of Zero, which were somewhat of an improvement imo. And of course, Yui Horie just sounds perfect.
Strangely, I must admit that the OP has quickly grown on me. Even though I found it horribly plain when I first heard it..?
