On January 19, 2019, Gov. Albert Bryan Jr. signed into law the Medical Cannabis Patient Care Act, sponsored by Sen. Positive T.A. Nelson. The bill will set up a robust medical cannabis program for both Virgin Islands residents and medical tourists.
Qualifying for the Program:
- Qualifying patients will apply to the Office of Cannabis Regulation (OCR) for a registration card that allows them to use, grow, and safety access medical cannabis. To qualify, patients must have a qualifying debilitating medical condition and a written certification issued by a healthcare practitioner with whom they have a bona-fide relationship.
- Certifications can be signed by an MD, DO, naturopath, homeopath, chiropractor, physician's assistant, or nurse practitioner.
Qualifying Conditions:
- The qualifying conditions are: cancer, glaucoma, HIV/AIDS, hepatitis C, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, agitation of Alzheimer's disease, PTSD, traumatic brain injury, hospice care, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, arthritis, diabetes, chronic pain, neuropathic pain, autism, opiate use disorder, or the treatment of these conditions or conditions that cause cachexia or wasting, severe nausea, seizures, or severe and persistent muscle spasms.
- The OCR may approve additional conditions or their treatments.
Possession Limits:
- Registered patients who are Virgin Islands residents may possess up to four ounces of cannabis and an amount of cannabis products allowed by regulation. Patients whose ID cards specify they can cultivate cannabis may grow 12 plants in a secure location and possess the cannabis harvested from those plants.
- Nonresident patients may possess up to three ounces of cannabis, plus an amount of cannabis products allowed by regulation.
- Patients may designate a caregiver to assist them with the medical use of cannabis. Caregivers are also issued ID cards from the OCR.
- A patient may have more than one caregiver if the patient — or the person responsible for making medical decisions on their behalf — submits documentation showing that additional help is needed due to the patient's age or medical condition.
- Caregivers may pick up a patient's cannabis from a dispensary on their behalf.
- Either a patient or their caregiver — not both — may cultivate plants for a patient. Patients will notify the OCR of whether they or the caregiver will be designated to cultivate.
- Caregivers must be 21 or older.
- Caregivers may only assist up to three patients (including themselves), unless the patient is admitted to a residential care or medical facility where the caregiver works.
Medical Cannabis Businesses:
- The OCR, within the Department of Licensing, is charged with licensing cultivation facilities, cannabis testing facilities, cannabis product manufacturing facilities, and dispensaries. It appears every qualified applicant will be licensed.
Regulatory Oversight:
- The OCR is responsible for ensuring patients' ability to get high-quality medicine in a timely fashion.
- A nine-member advisory board will have substantial authority, including oversight of the OCR and establishing policies for it to carry out. The advisory board will meet at least six times per year.
- The advisory board will include one or two representatives from each the health department, the department of agriculture, the department of licensing and consumer affairs, a farmer appointed by the agriculture commissioner, healthcare practitioners who are knowledgeable about medical cannabis, a disability rights advocate, and an economist or person with expertise in finance.
The advisory board will issue regulations, including:
- Developing rules for non-resident medical cannabis tourism;
- Establishing a testing lab on each major district, initially operated by private entities with annual contracts via an RFP (the Virgin Islands could operate its own later);
- Developing education and certification requirements for medical cannabis staffers;
- Establishing a list of approved medical cannabis establishment vendors;
- Developing rules about sensitive locations (such as schools and churches) and addressing street-level and media-based marketing around them;
- Developing security, recordkeeping, health and safety, transportation, employment, training, labeling, and oversight requirements, along with restrictions on advertising, signage, and display of cannabis; and
- Promulgating requirements for safe, accurate, and appropriately childproofed packaging and labeling.
Limitations and Prohibitions:
- A dispensary may not dispense more than three ounces of dried cannabis per patient, per 14-day period. The sales will be logged on a confidential website to ensure compliance.
- Patients may not drive, operate a boat, train, or aircraft, or undertake any task that would be negligent or professional malpractice while under the influence of cannabis.
- Medical cannabis businesses that sell medical cannabis to non-cardholders face felony penalties. Cardholders who do so face a misdemeanor carrying up to a year imprisonment.
- Cardholders who violate the law can have their ID cards revoked or suspended and, where applicable, face criminal penalties. Cards must be suspended permanently if they sell cannabis.
- Cannabis could not be smoked in any public place or place that is open to the public, and no establishment is required to allow a guest to smoke cannabis on the property.
- Landlords are not required to allow cannabis cultivation on their properties.
Legal Protections:
- The bill protects patients, caregivers, medical cannabis businesses and their agents, attorneys, and medical practitioners from arrest, prosecution, or penalties for actions allowed by the bill.
- Until 25 days after applications are available, a healthcare practitioner's certification serves as a registry identification card.
- Once a patient submits their application and healthcare practitioner's certification, a copy of those materials serve as a temporary ID card until the OCR acts on the patient's application.
- Registered patients are protected from discrimination in housing, school enrollment, child custody and visitation, and eligibility for medical care, including organ transplants. In addition, employers are to treat off-site, off-hours medical cannabis use as they would pharmaceutical medication, unless federal law, regulations, or contracts require otherwise. Employers may continue to prohibit employees from working under the influence of cannabis or using cannabis at work or during work hours and may presume a patient to be impaired if, during the work day, they have a THC concentration of 150 nanograms/ml or higher in their blood or urine.
Visiting Patients:
- Medical cannabis patients who are registered in other territories, states, or countries — or who have been residents of the USVI for less than 45 days — can use and obtain medical cannabis in the Virgin Islands. They need to submit their documentation to the OCR and to have a medical condition that qualifies under the Virgin Islands law.
- Also, patients who are not registered for medical cannabis in their home jurisdiction can use medical cannabis under the recommendation of a Virgin Islands medical cannabis physician and can apply for and receive a non-resident ID card.
Affirmative Defense:
- Individuals with qualifying medical conditions may raise a defense in court for their medical use of marijuana — and, if proven, be acquitted — if a healthcare practitioner treating the patient has stated he or she believes the patient may find relief from medical cannabis.
- The defense applies if the patient possessed no more than four ounces of cannabis, 12 cannabis plants, cultivated in a secure location, and the cannabis produced by those plants.
Fees, Taxes, and Regulatory Costs:
- The program must be funded entirely by the fees and taxes it generates within two years. An initial loan of $500,000 must be repaid within the two years.
- A 10% excise fee is levied on transfers to dispensaries and manufacturing facilities.
- A 5% excise fee is levied on sales to patients.
- The tax revenue will be used to repay the initial loan and to: address addictive behavior, drug education and rehabilitation programs (12.5%); defray licensing costs (12.5%); help fund the Department of Agriculture's Agriculture Depot Program (10%); help fund sports development, training, and travel through the Department of Sports, Parks and Recreation (10%); support government-owned buildings in the territory via the Department of Public Works for Infrastructure Maintenance and Improvement (10%); promote medical tourism (5%); fund medical cannabis education and training for law enforcement (5%); fund an apprenticeship program run by the Department of Labor with the Department of Education (5%); and help fund performing arts programs via the Department of Planning and Natural Resources for the Council of the Arts (5%). Once loans have been repaid, 10% will go to the government employees' retirement system.
- Medical cannabis business application fees range from no more than $500 (for a tier 1 license to grow no more than 100 plants, if the applicant is a farmer) to no more than $5,000 (for cannabis product manufacturers, dispensaries, and the largest growers). Half of the application fees are refundable to unsuccessful applicants.
- The OCR will set a licensing and renewal fee, which may not exceed the application fee. All fees may be adjusted annually for inflation.
- Virgin Island resident patients will pay an annual registry fee of no more than $50.
- Fees for visiting patients will be set by the OCR, and the maximum fees range from $50 for five days to $100 for 30 days.
- Draft rules are due within 120 days of the effective date. They will be final no more than 60 days later, following a 30-day public comment period.
- The OCR must begin issuing registry ID cards within 120 days of the effective date.
- The OCR must grant registrations to qualified medical cannabis business applicants within 90 days of the applications' submission.

Archived and Closed
This conversation is no longer open for comments or replies and is no longer visible to community members. The community moderator provided the following reason for archiving: Old post
1. Since I usually use my own stationery and like to send coloring pages or stickers (requiring larger envelopes), I ordered a custom stamp with Compassion's Child Correspondence Dept. address on it. No more writing the address on everything!
2. Rather than writing the child's and my ID numbers on everything, I use .5" x 1.25" labels. I created a Word label document for each child, with three lines: the child's first name on the first line, their ID number on the 2nd, and my ID number on the 3rd. I print out a bunch of sheets and keep them in a folder, alphabetically by the children's names. The labels are small enough to be unobtrusive on coloring sheets or anything else I send.
3. When I receive a letter from a child, I write the date at the top, and keep it in a napkin holder on my table. After I've replied to it, I punch holes in it and put it in a binder. I have a tab for each child. This way I can also review previous letters as I'm writing to them.
4. I sometimes send Bible verses, and usually write them on animal shaped cards for the younger ones, or decorated cardstock for the older ones. I usually spend an evening writing them all at once, so they are ready to go when I write the letters that month.
5. I keep a file for each child in my file cabinet, with things to send them in the future. I've found some Spanish coloring books, and Bible coloring books, stickers, etc. By having them already sorted out in the folders, when I write to a child I can just reach in and find things to send them, knowing that I haven't already sent them the same thing!
6. I made a spreadsheet in Google docs with a tab for each child. Each child's page has their little picture from Compassion's website, their ID, country, and language they speak. Then I keep track of every letter I receive (and the date), and the things I send them.
A typical entry is: 3/4/2015 dinosaur letter, Bible pages, stickers Psalm 50:15
That way I can see if I'm always sending the same stationery (animal notepads really) or need to mix it up a bit. The last column is the Bible verse I included, if I sent one that month.
7. A few times a year (as a break) I'll send an online letter to all the children, including photos. I write one for the older kids, then change the wording a bit for the younger ones.
I'm looking forward to hearing other ideas!
We need to remove the plastic packaging of say, stickers?
For mailing, I have found it is cheaper to mail batches than individual letters. Most of the time I use manila folders, but if I have a heavier-weight attachment, I will move up to a flat-rate envelope to mail.
I scan all my handwritten letters and print them out so I have a copy. When I go to write the next letter I check to see what I have previously written about. I keep the letters in sheet protectors in a binder.
I also keep a list of what I have sent out to each child. I use OneNote and each child has a tab.
I have grouped my kids together into 4 groups. There's a rotation of which group gets an online versus handwritten letter that week. So each week I write to two groups: one online and one by hand. The next week I write to the other two groups. Week 3 is back to the first two groups, but I swap which group gets the online letter and the handwritten one. So in a 4-week period everyone gets a handwritten and online letter.
My wife found some small plain index cards at Hobby Lobby in different colors that Ive been writing Bible verses on. My wife is better at this than me but I used to try to write my letters around a Bible verse or try to fit one into my letters somehow but a lot of weeks I didn't really get it to to work so I wouldn't put a verse. Now I'm sending one every week and this has also helped me with my 6 year old son to remember to give him a new verse to learn each week. I am sending Ana the same verse that my son is learning and I started them out with the Romans Road. I don't know why I didn't think about just sending the verses on a separate card but I did not and I don't think I would have if I hadn't read that idea in your post. It also helps me keep my letters shorter which is sometimes a problem for me as you can probably tell :)
I got a spreadsheet going too and I'm glad I did because I was going back and trying to remember what I had already sent and I couldn't remember what I had sent with several of the letters. I'm an accountant so you would think I would be on top of that sort of thing but I guess at first I thought I could just keep up with it in my head. It kind of blurs together after a while though and I can only imagine trying to keep up with everything with multiple kids.
I also got a filing system started that I think will work pretty well. I have trays for different kinds of stationery and colored paper. I was sending the same one every week but I felt kind of guilty after I read that comment about needing to mix it up so I got some more. :) I have files for stickers, coloring pages, Easter, Birthday, Valentine's Day, and Christmas. Valentine's is in September in Colombia so those are all spaced out pretty evenly for Ana and I'm trying to make a bigger deal for those occasions. This year I guess the holiday cards might be late but I'm trying to remember to get extra so I will be able to send them in time next year. That's why I wanted to have the folders so I could pick things up during the year. And I always sneak extra coloring and activity pages when we watch the kids in the nursery at church for Ana and I send them when we have extra room :) There's a lot of good ones on the Second Friday Pinterest page too.
Anyway, I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate you posting this. It has been so helpful for me just sponsoring one child and I imagine that it has been great advice to many of the sponsors on here who are writing to multiple kids.
I have found computer paper stationery at the Dollar Tree. 40 sheets for a dollar is a bargain!
Hi- I have written lots of letters using MS Word with the 2 columns, and leave the 2nd column blank for translation. I often add my own photos related to what I write about, which adds color and interest.
But you can also use the computer stationery and print a 2-column letter - you just might need to adjust the margins so you don't print on the borders of the stationery. Or sometimes it's easier to just print your letter on the top half of the page, and leave the bottom half for the translation.
You sound like a great, committed sponsor. Your kids are blessed by you!

Paraty is a small historical town on Brazil's costa verde (green coast). It was one of the main entry points into Brazil for the Portuguese and marks the start of the "gold trail". Due to its location it remained relatively cut off from the rest of Brazil due to steep, impassable, rain forest all around it and it feels like you have gone back in time.
The historic old part of town is not open to cars and the streets are lined with boutique shops, hotels, restaurants and gallerys. The houses are painted white with the doors and windows painted with bright colours (Eva particularly liked this as you can tell by the millions of house photos). It is a very pretty colonial town and has a great choice of restaurants.
This was to be our home for Christmas, and we felt like we made a really good choice.

Sonic Generations (along with Viking: Battle for Asgard) have been unlocked for the beat-the-average tier, which currently sits at a mere $3.72.
Generations is a solid port. Also, be sure to check out the excellent Unleashed Project mod too!
As mentioned before, if you already bought the dollar tier, you can upgrade your purchase through the bundle key page Humble sent you. And if you already beat the average, then the extra games should be waiting for you on that page too.
Go grab it here!
Humble Sega Bundle is Live
For a mere dollar you can get the Dreamcast Collection, NiGHTS into Dreams, and Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed for PC on Steam!
The Dreamcast Collection includes Sonic Adventure DX, along with Crazy Taxi, Space Channel 5: Part 2, and Sega Bass Fishing. Those ports are kinda crappy but Sega has recently been working to update and fix them up a bit.
NiGHTS is solid though. And Racing Transformed is pretty much one of the best kart racers ever.
More games will be unlocked for the beat-the-average tier next week. Maybe more Sonic games will be included? Maybe. Either way, you could buy the dollar tier now and upgrade later. (The average price to beat will be locked to whatever it was when you bought the bundle. Typically it only goes up over time, but not by too much.)
Watch Sonic Boom's intro in its entirety
Sonic Boom in the US for whatever reason has a very short intro. Time constraints, most likely. This isn't the case for French audiences. It's still quite generic.
Nintendo reveals Sonic amiibo for Smash Bros.
Nintendo unveiled a new wave of amiibo figurines for Super Smash Bros., including Sonic and ten other characters. Like the rest of the Smash amiibos, Sonic here is based on his official character portrait from the game:
If ya didn't know, amiibos are used in Smash Bros as personalized computer characters. You can customize their movesets and attributes, pitting them against other players or amiibos, levelling them up in the process. Sorta like a virtual pet? But without having to actually take care of them and stuff.
amiibo figures also store information identifying the character they depict. So, being a Sonic amiibo, it could potentially be used with other Sonic games, assuming they actually include amiibo support. So... neat.
The Sonic amiibo is set to release worldwide in February 2015. Check out the full lineup on the official site. Also here's the packaging. There it is.
(And yes I know this is several days late!!!)

Sonic Boom will premiere at 7am eastern Nov 8
According to Cartoon Network's official site, Sonic Boom will premiere next week Nov 8th at 7am eastern. The pilot will be "Sidekick/Can an Evil Genius Crash on Your Couch for a Few Weeks"
Now this may seem concerning. You may be thinking no sane person on this earth will get up at 7 am. Recall though that the target demographic is for kids ages 6-11 and 7 am for them isn't that bad... unless it's central time where it would then be at 6 am. Then I am sorry for them. I recall Sonic Underground being on at 6 am. Not fun.
Happy 20th Birthday Sonic & Knuckles!
Sonic & Knuckles was released internationally 20 years ago today, concluding the story set forth by Sonic 3 and bringing much joy and happiness to people all over the world. Can you believe it's been that long since lock-on technology completely revolutionized gaming as we knew it?
First 4 Figures unleashes Dr. Robotnik statue
Love Dr. Robotnik and have more money than you know what to do with? Well, the masters over at First 4 Figures have unveiled their new Robotnik statue, towering at 22 inches tall and costing a paltry $400! Chump change for the Eggman, really.
But he is quite a good looking chum, wouldn't you say? He's to scale with First 4 Figure's other Sonic statues, such as everybody's friend Metal Sonic over there. And he has two sets of hands, one holding some Chaos Emeralds. Who wouldn't want this jolly fellow looming menacingly over them while they're trying to get work done? Just like your boss.
A truckload more photos can be seen over on the product page on First 4 Figure's official website.
Archie teases new crossover Worlds Unite
Almost to no surprise, a sequel is in the works to the 12 part series Worlds Collide from 2013. We'll get it next year and Paul Kaminski is saying it will even more epic. More epic than worlds shattering? We'll have to wait and see. More details to follow at NYCC.
Will it halt the main series? or will it be its own series? Hopefully we'll have the answers soon.

Big Upcoming Update!
We don't want you to think this place is being completely abandoned. The next update will serve as a pivot point for the site. Most people come here for Sonic comic related news and information. According to Google Analytics, more than 2/3rd of all site traffic is comic related. It's time for this site to focus on that more directly. Don't worry, older content isn't going anywhere.
Stay tuned!
Sonic Boom coming to Archie
Archie recently dropped hints of this and now it's confirmed. A new comic book series "Sonic Boom" will make its way to fans starting in October. Ian Flynn and Evan Stanley will craft each issue which will also be stand alone in nature like the cartoon. We'll have a Sonic Boom comic category shortly.
This was posted on the Archie Comics website:
Here comes the BOOM! Get in on the ground floor with the ALL-NEW ONGOING SONIC COMIC BOOK SERIES from Archie Comics based on the new hit TV series and video game: Sonic Boom! This ground-breaking new chapter in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise puts a new "spin" on all your favorite heroes and villains—plus new faces and hilarious new stories chock-full of action—and it's all brought to you by the folks that bring the hit series Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic Universe to you each and every month! Subscribe today and own a piece of Sonic comic history!
IGN has posted an interview with Ian Flynn and Paul Kaminski with some further details.

Sonic 2 Game Gear Press Prototype acquired by Sonic Retro
Now here is exiting news! Over at Sonic Retro they have aquired the rom Sega used to give to magazines to advertise the game, however just by the video you can see things aren't exactly final! Weird loops and different art abound, including those crazy trees! Compare this demo to say the long lost Sonic 1 Genesis demo that people like to fake. However, this one is indeed real and ready to be dumped to the internet. What will we find? Also earlier versions of Sonic Labyrinth and Tails Adventure are on their way as well.
Follow this thread for more updates.
Eggrobo to be featured in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS
Today's Super Smash Bros. pic of the day features none other than the Eggrobo! Look at that darling egg-baby.
To quote game director Masahiro Sakurai's Miiverse post:
Pic of the day. Here's Dr. Eggman's machine, Eggrobo. It'll appear as a guest character in Smash Run and attack you with laser beams.
Smash Run is a 3DS exclusive mode that has four players simultaneously battling enemies through a large map, collecting powerups to use in a final showdown with each other at the end of the 5 minute time limit. (Basically it's City Trial from Kirby Air Ride.)
Big Music Section Update
Before the music section had game sound tracks, it had fan submitted midi files. Midis, remember those things? They'd loop in the background on some sites during the dawn of the internet. To do this, you would use an embed tag to play it in the browser. The problem with this, is it relies on plugins. It's now 2014. Directing people to go download QuickTime to play a midi file is so 1998.
To get around this annoyance, I've converted the original midi files that were on the site into mp3. They play with the the audio tag instead of the old embed tag. Not quite all of them have been converted but to start:
- Sonic 1
- Sonic 2
- Sonic 3 & K
- Sonic CD
- Knuckles' Chaotix
- Sonic 3D Blast (Saturn and MD/Genesis)
- Sonic Adventure
- Sonic Adventure 2
There's about 450+ across those games listed. You'll find 3 options where it shows "Results" to choose which files are shown. By default it lists the normal game tracks.
More Blasts From Sonic HQs Past
Hey there! If you haven't noticed I am the guy who mostly posts when Lighty doesn't. And boy do I have an exclusive treat for you! I sent an q&a email to Sonic HQ way back in 2002. I was so excited I got a response that I printed it out! ...Which turned out to be the only surviving copy of it ever happening. Good thing I spent the entire night retyping it EXACTLY as it appeared on this paper! Well apart from deleting my real name and all. Otherwise everything is there, misspellings lowercase and all.

1) As I know of so far, no, but you can go to sites like Emulation Zone and
get the ROMs of Sonic 1 and 2.
2) Probably not for a long time.
3) Sonic Adventure sold better than they thought it would so thus to keep
things going, and make money, they planned a second Sonic game and also to
celebrate Sonic's 10 years in gamming.
4) Maybe, however we'll never know.
5) The first Game Gear games always differed from the Genesis version and
there was some evidance that he was suppose to (from the title screens to
the zones), but Sega changed it at the last minute for reasons unkown.
6) No, he was set to be the bad guy, and stay the bad guy.
7) Robotnik.
8) It's possible she was just brought there, Sonic can do the time warp so
obviously Robotnik would be able to. And she stayed there until Sonic
brought her back.
9) They're suppose to be hearts because she's in love with him.
10) Archie comics and Sonic never really going ga-ga over her.
11) They were never put in there for some reason, Expert Software just got
lazy and probably duplicated the music. I've never been sure since the music
from the CD never played like it was suppose to in the game when I played
12) Pretty much, Sonic's and Tails' favorite food is Chilli Dogs, however
Sega and Archie have never included such particulars.
13) Yes, it's real name is Angel Island, but it's nickname is the Floating
Island because it floats.
14) I believe so, I've just always had the bubble shield in case, saves
having to worry.
15) Sonic's original eyes were black, as were most cartoon characters back
then, it saved the animators a lot of trouble, but with the new technology
and the redesign by Sonic Team, Sonic & Co. got color to their eyes for the
first time.
Well there you have it! You can pretty much tell how I was over a decade ago. I used to be scared of downloading ROMS back then, now I do stuff like this:
A glance at Sonic HQ on Geocities
Pages from the original Geocities version of Sonic HQ have been featured on the One Terabyte of Kilobyte Age Photo Op blog!
This automated Tumblr blog, a project of the Contemporary Home Computing site, chronologically posts screenshots of Geocities homepages. Every 20 minutes a new screenshot gets posted (inside a Netscape browser no less), complete with the original URL and the date the site was last modified.
Now, as you may know, Geocities was closed down by Yahoo back in 2009, deleting tons of internet history in the process. Thankfully, one terabyte of data was managed to be rescued by the Archive Team before the closure, and these websites are still available today in some form.
First up is the games page.
So how did this get featured? Well, at the time, Geocities had a strict 11MB limit for websites. To skirt around this, SHQ was split into multiple Geocities sites (and Angelfire sites... and Tripod sites...). So while this would be considered a sub-page of SHQ, it's technically its own website. Thus it's viable to be picked up by the Tumblr blog.
Significantly, the games page is also the first page from 1999 to be posted on the blog. This means it had the earliest "last modified" date of any Geocities page from 1999. Meaning it's the first Geocities page to be completely abandoned in 1999, without the webmaster deleting it themselves sometime later! ...Hooray!
The screenshot also has 81 likes and reblogs at the time of this writing. Yay~
Check out the original page on the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine!
Next is the homepage (both the original URL and the custom URL).
The homepage was overhauled to redirect visitors to the site's new address, where it was hosted on Emulation Zone and finally all under one umbrella. As for that custom Geocities URL (geocities.com/zifei), that was the name of the site's founder, Zifei.
(And yes, you are looking at a Netscape screenshot inside a Netscape screenshot.)
Check out the original page on the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine!
So there you have it! Quite a nice little trip down memory lane. I personally wasn't around to see this era of the site -- I didn't find it until 2001 a couple years later. But it's nice to reflect.
It's pretty amazing Sonic HQ is still kicking after all these years, huh? Well... I guess it's more of a limp right now. It's seen some better days I'll give it that. But it's still around and that's what counts, right?
Hey, and be sure to check out the One Terabyte of Kilobyte Age blog post bringing in the new year, Happy 1999!, where Sonic HQ is also featured. People will indeed be bewildered by this ancient Geocities site... and maybe even more bewildered to find out it's still around!
Sonic Revolution: Fan Convention Half Sold out!
For those who don't know what Sonic Revolution is;
"Sonic Revolution is a movement to bring conventions and meetups for Sonic the Hedgehog fans to every part of the world."
..And they're running a single day Sonic convention on June 15th in Buena Park, California! Some of the highlights being a performance by the band Serenity Seven, an exclusive short preview of the fan film Sonic Prologue, and Archie comics artist Evan Stanley will be there signing autographs and displaying artwork!
100 tickets were put up for grabs yesterday and they all were claimed before the day was over.. These were free tickets (Though they are taking donations)
There are still an additional 100 tickets to be given away, but the plans for them remain unclear..
Sonic Boom revealed: cartoon, video game, and toys!
Lots of Sonic news today, folks. Let's see how condensible it is.
Sega has taken the wraps off their new direction for Sonic, Sonic Boom. Sega is calling it a "a new branch of the Sonic universe" so it's not a full on reboot. Under the Sonic Boom umbrella, will be the new cartoon, debuting on Cartoon Network this Fall, a Sonic Boom video game developed by Big Red Button Entertainment, formerly Naughty Dog for Wii U and 3DS. It will be the third title part of the Nintendo exclusivity agreement. New toys will be produced by TOMY and will include plush, action figures, RC, role play, vehicles and novelty. The voice actors from the games will be incorporated in Sonic Boom. It's not certain if it's an exact 1:1 match but so far, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy and Eggman are certain.
There's more information in the source link below.

Site Improvements
Just wanted to share a couple things that's new to the site but very easily missed.
In the Comics section, the default "Browse By Series" listing is now paganized in chronological order from the beginning to now. This includes Sonic The Hedgehog, Sonic Super Special (and original Specials), Sonic Universe, Knuckles The Echidna, all the miniseries, and Sonic X.
There is now RSS support for the main page. The RSS feed is at http://www.sonichq.net/rss
Shocking Alert! People on /co/ are using Sonic HQ archives!
Bells clanged into the air when it was revealed that people remember and still use Sonic HQ's archives without any of our prompting! Even still is that it was caught in the seedly underbelly of the internet (but not really) comics and cartoons board a certain unnamed but well known site. Unfortunately, we here at Sonic HQ do not agree with his viewpoints and insist that Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog is good cartoon show in its own wacky way. Dr. Lighthead's official stance when questioned by reporters is "if they name dropped and also gave a link back, eh let them."

Are you Man Enough to Wear Heels?
Somerset Community College to host Walk a Mile in Her Shoes: The International Mens March to Stop Rape, Sexual Assault and Gender Violence on November 4
Are you a man interested in helping to stop rape, sexual assault and gender violence? If so, heres your chance! All you need is a pair of high heels.
On November 4, 2015, Somerset Community Colleges Student Government Association will host Walk a Mile in Her Shoes: The International Mens March to Stop Rape, Sexual Assault amp; Gender Violence. The walk will begin at 9 a.m. in front of the Harold Rogers Student Commons, located on the SCC Somerset North Campus at 808 Monticello Street in Somerset. Participants will walk a mile around campus sidewalks. The registration fee is $15 with a T-shirt and $5 without a shirt. Male participants should provide their own high heels and female participants should wear comfortable shoes.
The walk, which is intended for both male and females, is designed to be fun as well as bring visibility to a troubling topic, said SGA delegate Katie Linville, who planned the event.
This event is intended to be rather playful, but will also generate discussion concerning a terrible reality - that people are sexually abused and raped every day, and that it happens to many more people than we may realize, said Linville. Nobody deserves to go through this, but many do, and it changes their lives forever.
Many victims don't report the crimes perpetrated against them, often because they are blamed for the act themselves, or they think people won't believe them, said Linville. I want this to change. I want people to understand the gravity of the situation, and take a stand against sexual assault. I want people to vow to never commit such a crime, and also to help those who've been through an assault in whatever ways that they can.
All proceeds from the event will be given to the local Adanta Group and the Bethany House, Linville said.
The event is also being held in conjunction with a Kentucky Community and Technical College System initiative called Its On Us, which SCC students are participating. The Its On Us initiative is part of a national campaign to fight sexual assault and intimate partner violence. All SCC students and employees are required to take the free, online sexual assault awareness and prevention training program by November 20, 2015.
To find out more about the Walk a Mile in Her Shoes project, visit www.walkamileinhershoes.org.com. To register for the SCC event, or find out more, contact Linville at email@example.com.

1. Anpiam Sunday
Anpiam Sunday was celebrated in all the parishes of Tamil Nadu on 13.01.2008. The Theme of the day and the year was, "In order to built the body of Christ"(Eph.4/12). This celebration had given the motivation for all the activities to promote Anpiams in Tamil Nadu.
2. TAMIL Nadu ANPIAm Executive Body MEETING [Secretary with 2 members from 17 Dioceses] held on 9th February 2008 and General Body Meeting (Secretary with 7 members from 17 Dioceses) held on 8th June 2008 helped us to plan the activities to form Vicariate teams, and Zonal teams, and to have formation programmes for the Regional Team.
3. Vicariate Teams are very important to form Diocesan Team and to work in the Parishes. So, out of 99 Vicariates in 17 Dioceses we have constituted 52 Vicariate Teams. Each team consists of Representatives from all the Parishes in the respective Vicariate. We are to constitute teams in 47 Vicariates. Further, we need to co-ordinate these teams in Diocesan level and we are to give formation to all the team members.
4. ZONAL Team consists of Lay representatives and Secretaries from each Diocese under the guidance of an Adviser Bishop in the Zone. In Tamil Nadu we have 5 Zones. In the month of November we had meeting in all the Zones under the guidance of the Adviser Bishops. We have formed Zonal Teams that will facilitate sharing between the Dioceses and to organize zonal level programmes in order to deepen ANPIAM Activities. Invariably in all the Zones, they have requested to have formation programmes for Resource Persons.
5. Formation programmes for the Regional Team and diocesan teams.
Three special Regional programmes were organized for the on-going formation of Diocesan Teams and Regional Team. These were conducted by resource persons from International and National Teams. They have helped the participants for a personal renewal and evaluation of Anpiam activities along with suggestions to develop the regional activities. These programmes have helped to have a wider vision and clear focus in the Regional Team and other participants.
6. FORMATION AND Renewal of Anpiam and Animators by the Regional Team.
297 ANPIAMS have been formed in 12 Parishes in 7 Dioceses by the Regional Team. 225 Seminarians and 144 Religious Sisters have been given Seminar and Training in ANPIAM formation. 65 Catechists, 4678 Animators from Parishes were given the Basic Introductory Workshops and Training. With this Training, they work in their own way in their ANPIAMS and Parishes in building up the Body of Christ.
7. ANPIAM – Booklets and Materials.
We have prepared two small Booklets and two sets of Cards (One set in English and One set in Tamil) to provide basic clarity about ANPIAM as New Way of being Church. The subjects dealt with in these Booklets and Cards are
8. Effects of the Above mentioned Activities
Through the Regional Training Programmes the Regional Team and the Diocesan Teams have learnt the methods of conducting Seminars and field works, in order to bring ANPIAM mentality in its members and to develop the ANPIAMS.
Formation of Zonal Teams and Vicariate Teams has given the opportunity for many to participate in ANPIAM Activities with clarity and right focus.
We were able to identify people who would volunteer to work for the Church. With the help of the Booklets and Materials prepared, they are able to explain the need, concept and Methods of ANPIAM. They are empowered to convince persons regarding the urgency and priority of ANPIAMS in the Pastoral Ministry
We are able to identify the areas till needing attention such as

David Byrne writes about riding bicycles in NYC for nearly 30 years, including the early years withTalking Heads (iTunes) where they made fun of him for being like Pee Wee Herman. While noting how exhilarating riding across town is
"A ride across town gets the adrenalin going as one heads to work or to the studio in the morning. By the time one arrives for a meeting one is fully awake blood pumping, on alert " having often just had 3 near-death experiences."
he also observes a wonderful new bike path up the Hudson and how some NYC streets now have marked bike lanes.
For more NYC rides, check this guide to NYC metro area bike paths that not only describes the ride, but tells its history.
Concluding his post, Byrne talks about the freedom of riding through a chapel in Vegas, strange looks in Instanbul, and the levees in New Orleans. He reminded me of why I take my bike with me most everywhere I travel and the cycling perspective.
In Beijing, we rode in the "flow" of the city and we'll ride in more cities this year on the Modal, a new travel bike project.

The Need For Research
To start implementing the A road to Changes progamme in communities is firstly essential to conduct a comprehensive research and administer questionnaires to households who have persons with disabilities and to the various institutions and the private sector in the area. Based on these research findings proposals will be presented on interventions that could be considered to achieve greater involvement of persons with disabilities in the activities of their families as well as the local community.
Utho Ngathi realized the need to conduct comprehensive research on disability issues in all of Southern Africa. Current statistics are lacking information on perception issues, expectations for development, and knowledge of services and accessibility for persons with disabilities. This information enables Utho Ngathi and Partner Organisations to develop optimum programs for each area, country and region.
The following will be the main outcomes of this research:
- Establish the prevalence as well as the challenges of persons with disabilities;
- Capture data on existing and trainable skills in the agricultural and business sector amongst persons with disabilities, their families and other community members
- Propose intervention programmes on the basis of awareness raising, advocacy, inclusive programs in community activities, improved accessibility of services and infrastructures and sustainable economic developments in the region with the inclusion of persons with disabilities

SAM FRANCIS' POSITION ON A generational basis is complex. On one hand, he was born in 1923, which places him with the second generation of artists, like Raymond Parker born in 1922, Ellsworth Kelly, 1923, Kenneth Noland, 1924, and Helen Frankenthaler, 1928. On the other hand, his mature style was achieved by 1950, which is to say he was close behind Rothko, whose vertical stacks of big rectangles did not coalesce out of smaller, subdivided forms until 1949. Frankenthaler's much-cited Mountains and Sea was painted early, also, in 1952. The fact that Francis and Frankenthaler were early starters, whereas the Abstract Expressionists were late starters, puts the two generations, one born 1903–1915, the other in the '20s, close in the chronological record, but they should not be confused as Robert T. Buck, Jr. does in the catalogue of Sam Francis 1947–19721. One reason for this is Francis'

The Apricot Centre is doing everything it can to help deliver local fresh food to the community. We have however now hit the capacity for what we can deliver and therefore will not be able to accept new orders for the time being. We still have a limited number of places available for the following groups:
- self-isolating WITH symptoms
- self-isolating due to underlying health problems
- over 70's who have difficulties accessing shopping
- key workers (as defined in the government guidelines)
If you fall into one of these groups, you are welcome to create an account and order. Following that please email email@example.com and let me know so that I can try and put your order as a priority (and I will try to let your order go through) until we have reached our ultimate maximum capacity.
For others, we wil have a waiting list for new orders, so we would encourage you to create an account and order the items that you would like. We will then put these orders on hold and then let you know. We will then reinstate these orders on a first come first served basis as availability arises, and we will inform you that we are ready to deliver to you. We are working to try and increase our capacity but we need to hold out at the current number for the weeks commencing 23rd March and 30th March.
Thank you for your support and understanding
Warmest Wishes,
The Apricot Centre Team
