A traditional retention schedule provides a detailed enumeration – sometimes described as a granular listing – of record series with specific disposition instructions. Each record series is assigned a numeric or alphanumeric record code as a unique identifier. Following a well-established practice described in records management textbooks, the record series are often identified by conducting an inventory that captures information about the characteristics and business purpose of records maintained by all or part of an organization.
The inventory's findings are transposed, with some editing, into a retention schedule. Depending on the circumstances, a traditional retention schedule may list hundreds or even thousands of record series, and it may specify a variety of retention periods for records associated with a given department or business function.
In marked contrast, a big bucket retention schedule groups records in broad categories that correspond to an organization's major activities, business functions, or work processes. Each category (bucket) is assigned a record code. Individual record series are cited as examples within each category, but the examples are typically illustrative rather than comprehensive.
Unlike a traditional retention schedule, which may specify different retention periods for individual record series associated with a given business function, the records included in a big bucket category have identical or similar retention requirements, and a uniform retention period is applied to the entire category. The retention period is based on the longest retention requirement for any record series covered by the category.
The big bucket approach to retention scheduling was initially developed in and implemented by the U.S. government to address problems associated with traditional record retention methodologies. A 2001 report prepared for the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) noted that scheduling concepts were poorly understood by federal agencies; that many significant records, including most electronic records, were unscheduled; that some significant records were improperly scheduled; and that some agency retention schedules were out of date.
…a big bucket retention schedule groups records in broad categories that correspond to an organization's major activities, business functions, or work processes.
In 2003, NARA outlined its strategy for redesigning federal records management to address challenges posed by electronic recordkeeping, the proliferation of e-mail, reductions in program staff allocated to filing agency records, and other technological and administrative developments. Among tactics to carry out the strategy, NARA announced an improved approach to record retention, including "flexible scheduling," to allow agencies to schedule records "at any level of aggregation that meets their business needs." This idea was clarified and expanded in a series of NARA bulletins issued between 2005 and 2010.
By the mid-2000s, interest in big bucket retention schedules had spread to the broader records management community. In reports and articles, which are cited in the full AIEF report, information management (IM) professionals explained the big bucket approach and discussed its practical advantages – in particular, the increased likelihood that users will correctly classify records for retention if they are given fewer choices, simplified user training, and easier review and revision of retention schedules to incorporate new record series.
These publications also reviewed the counter-arguments, especially the possibility of keeping some records, including personal data, longer than necessary and complications posed by event-driven retention requirements.
On the Records Management Listserv, interest in big bucket retention was at its height in 2007 when 87 postings, many of them expressing strong opinions, had the word "bucket" in the subject line. As the big bucket concept gained exposure and greater acceptance as an effective alternative to traditional retention methodologies, however, notoriety diminished. The number of Listserv postings that contained the word "bucket" in the subject line declined sharply to 28 in 2008 and even more dramatically in subsequent years. There was just 1 posting in 2014. In 2015, there were none.
Interviewees reported that their big bucket schedules were well received by users who found them to be easier to understand and apply than their granular predecessors.
Big bucket concepts are briefly mentioned in records management textbooks, and articles dealing with big bucket retention continue to be published occasionally in professional journals. For the most part, these books and articles reiterate the benefits and concerns noted in earlier publications. They do not provide new information about the current status of big bucket retention.
To address this void, this author's ARMA International Educational Foundation (AIEF) study presents findings from telephone interviews with 14 IM professionals who either revised an existing record retention schedule using big bucket concepts or developed a new big bucket retention schedule from scratch.
The interviews, conducted in the first quarter of 2018, focused on the circumstances in which the big bucket schedules were developed, the characteristics of retention schedules they replaced, the size and scope of the big bucket schedules, the benefits obtained, issues and problems encountered during schedule development and implementation, and acceptance or resistance by users. The interviews were designed to obtain reports "from the field" about the objectives, issues, concerns, problems, and outcomes of big bucket retention initiatives.
Seven interviewees reported on big bucket retention initiatives in for-profit companies.
One interviewee reported on a big bucket retention initiative in a not-for-profit organization.
Six interviewees discussed the development and implementation of big bucket retention schedules in government agencies – two in federal agencies, three in state government (including one in a state university system), and two in local government.
Eleven interviewees were based in the United States, although four of the private sector interviewees worked for companies with international operations. Two interviewees were based in Canada and one interviewee worked in the United Kingdom.
Because some interviewees described their experience with big bucket retention in both current and previous employment, the number of organizations represented was greater than 14.
Nine interviewees discussed their experience with big bucket schedules that were fully developed. In most cases, the schedules were completed within the last several years. Five interviewees discussed big bucket schedules that were in development but nearing completion. In some cases, these schedules were being rolled out in sections and had been partially implemented. All interviewees indicated that their big bucket schedules were designed to fully replace their granular predecessors.
Interviewees reported that their big bucket schedules satisfied their organizations' legal and operational requirements and were well received by users who found them to be easier to understand and apply than their granular predecessors.
Most of the interviewees adopted the big bucket approach to replace an overly complicated and unwieldy retention schedule that had been in use for some time and needed revision. Interviewees noted that their granular retention schedules were difficult to understand and apply, required time-consuming review and updating, specified inconsistent retention periods for the same types of records maintained by multiple departments, included some obsolete and transient record series, and – despite excessive length – were incomplete.
Most interviewees reported that their granular retention schedules were not consistently implemented. In some organizations, the granular schedule was ignored by users, possibly because the retention rules were too complicated and difficult to apply. Several interviewees noted that many employees were not even aware that their organization had a retention schedule.
Interviewees' experience confirmed that the big bucket approach can significantly reduce the number of record series listed in a retention schedule. While some portion of the reduction may be attributable to removal of obsolete and duplicate record series, which could be accomplished by simply pruning a traditional retention schedule, big bucket consolidation involves a thorough analysis and systematic grouping of record series related to specific business operations and activities. This consolidation is a defining characteristic of the big bucket approach and the principal reason for its effectiveness. With fewer choices, users are more likely to select the correct retention period for records in their custody or under their supervisory control.
All interviewees agreed that their big bucket retention schedules simplified training when compared to their granular predecessors.
Some big bucket initiatives reduced the variety of retention periods assigned to specific record series by standardizing on selected time periods for non-permanent records – 3 years, 7 years, and 10 years, for example – whenever possible.
Over-retention, a frequently cited limitation of the big bucket approach, was not a concern. No interviewees reported resistance to the possibility that some records may be retained longer than necessary. Rather than being troubled by over-retention, some interviewees noted that stakeholders viewed long retention favorably. Several interviewees reported that their information technology units raised no objections to over-retention of electronic records maintained on their servers or under their supervisory control.
Like their granular counterparts, big bucket schedules require periodic review and updating. Big bucket schedules should be easier to update than their granular counterparts because they do not include a comprehensive enumeration of record series. A new record series can be added to an existing bucket by interpretation; it does not need to be specifically listed in the retention schedule.
Critics of the big bucket approach have argued that consolidation obliterates the identity of record series when compared to traditional retention schedules that provide detailed lists of record series keyed to detailed file plans. Addressing this point, several interviewees in organizations with well-developed file plans noted that retention schedules and file plans serve different purposes. The big bucket approach does not eliminate record series or invalidate file plans. It merely specifies a uniform disposition for multiple record series. File plans remain useful for organization of records.
For the most part, records managers interviewed for this study were satisfied with their big bucket initiatives, but some issues and concerns were noted, as follows.
All interviewees described their big bucket schedules as media-neutral, but most organizations have not fully implemented retention guidance for electronic records. A big bucket schedule is more likely to be applied to e-mail or to digital documents saved on network drives than to databases, which may require modification to incorporate the requisite retention functionality.
Several interviewees reported that their big bucket schedules include some granular sections with detailed listings of record series that did not lend themselves to big bucket consolidation.
Some interviewees wanted to minimize event-based retention, which can be difficult to implement in a big bucket context, but they indicated that complete elimination of event-based retention triggers may not be feasible for project records, personnel records, case records, client records, and other record series that need to be retained for some years after termination of the matters to which they pertain.
While retention rules may be simplified, the development and implementation of a big bucket schedule is a complicated, time-consuming undertaking. While they were not specifically asked to provide advice to would-be developers of big bucket schedules, all interviewees noted issues that must be addressed. Strong management support and stakeholder buy-in are essential. Users must be trained. A crosswalk mechanism must be developed to facilitate the transition from a predecessor schedule. The new retention rules must be applied to older records in offsite storage, some of which may not have been accurately identified when they were sent offsite.
Because most of the interviewees worked in U.S. organizations that do not have global operations, they were not concerned with the implications of over-retention for compliance with data protection regulations in EU member states and other countries. Those regulations generally require the destruction of personally identifiable information when the purpose for which the information was originally created or collected is fulfilled. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) had not taken effect when the interviews were conducted, but interviewees were aware of it.
While the advantages of the big bucket approach for automated retention of electronic records have been widely discussed, less than a quarter of the interviewees reported using a records management application or other software to manage retention of electronic records.
The AIEF study was limited to experienced IM professionals who adopted big bucket retention concepts, invested considerable time and effort in schedule development, and were generally satisfied with the outcome. None of the interviewees expressed regret about the decision to use the big bucket approach. While several interviewees indicated that their big bucket schedules included some granular sections, there was no discussion of reverting to a traditional retention schedule.
As noted, the interviewees were self-selected based on the author's description of the study, which may have attracted respondents with favorable experiences in successful big bucket initiatives. It would be interesting to hear from records managers who attempted to develop a big bucket schedule but could not do so, for whatever reason, or who implemented a big bucket schedule but subsequently reverted to a traditional approach, either by abandoning the big bucket schedule outright or by incorporating granular modifications that changed the character of the schedule. Records management publications, listserv postings, and other sources contain no reports of such developments.

Eighth graders learn in an underwater classroom
A group of about 40 Stillwater Middle School 8th graders learned to scuba dive as part of a unique scuba unit taught by physical education teacher Andy Olson.
While Olson has been teaching scuba to students for more than 4 years, this year's class was a little different than previous years. The students were part of the brand new Unified Physical Education class, which brings together general education students and special needs students.
The 8th graders spent several days preparing for their dive by learning about the scuba equipment and practicing safety hand signals. They also took a short practice dive with the teacher in groups of two. The unique unit culminated with students jumping into the school's pool with full scuba gear. They were joined in the water by Olson, a certified diver, and two certified dive instructors from Midwest School of Diving.

In one of the largest studies of its kind, researchers analyzed chikungunya and dengue outbreak data from 76 countries over a period of 50 years.
Pathobiology Professor Rebecca Lee Smith said, "Another important implication of the work is that countries need to share data with their neighbours.
Mosquitoes don't recognize borders. So, we need epidemiology without borders."

486 Mr. McGuinness asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage Gaeltacht and the Islands if she will have investigations made into a complaint that an instruction issued on 5 July 1982 (details supplied) to personnel in Dúchas is being ignored and as a result written and verbal queries to Dúchas personnel section are not being answered; if the queries raised regarding payment of subsistence allowance will be dealt with by issuing a comprehensive reply or explanation to all staff concerned; the reason operatives on industrial grades in Kilkenny Castle and in Kilkenny national monuments depot are in receipt of four different subsistence rates despite the fact that it would appear they should be on the one scale; the workers who are in receipt of or qualify for subsistence rates C, D and E on the subsistence rates effective from 1 January 2000 by job title; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [7513/01]
Minister for Arts, Heritage, Gaeltacht and the Islands (Miss de Valera):
The document of 5 July 1982 referred to by the Deputy deals with the travelling and subsistence regulations applicable to established Civil Service grades, which are covered by the general council agreements under the scheme of conciliation and arbitration for the Civil Service. The terms of this document have always been applied to the relevant grades in my Department. The specific queries, which I believe the Deputy is referring to, relate to a small number of non-established (industrial) staff. This has been the subject of discussion between the trade unions concerned and the personnel division of my Department. Action has already been taken to resolve the issue and the trade unions are being advised accordingly.
There are a number of subsistence and meal allowances applicable to industrial staff depending on their grade, work location and commencement date. These allowances have all been the subject of agreement at national level with the trade unions concerned. In the case of Kilkenny the local trade unions have been supplied with written details. Some aspects of allowances are currently the subject of discussion at the National Joint Industrial Council for State Employees, which is the relevant central negotiating body. My Department will also be responding to the local trade unions regarding another specific issue, which they have raised on the subject of qualifying conditions.
The following grades in my Department ordinarily qualify for class C, D and E rates of subsistence under the Department of Finance Circular (11/82):–
Class C Rate: general service staff in the executive officer grade, whose pay is below the maximum point of the scale for clerical officer and equivalents; Industrial staff in the grades of foremen; storekeeper clerks grades I and II and storekeeper clerks in charge; office and stores supervisors; supervisor guides and work study assessors grades I, II and III.
Class D Rate: general service staff in the clerical officer grade whose pay is at or below the 8th point on the scale for clerical officers and equivalents.
Class E Rate: service officers and related grades.

Heather was a referral from a friend of mine. I love working with referred clients because they already have a realistic expectation. Usually there's been a conversation with whomever is referring them, it makes my job so much easier!
Heather contacted me stating that she was referred to me by a mutual friend and that she was looking to have some family photos taken. She mentioned in her initial message that she was 11 years overdue, she'd NEVER had family photos done! It always makes me a little sad to hear that, every parent needs to have family photos to proudly display and share. Parents want to show off their kids and families!!!
She told me a little about her kids as we discussed location options for her session. She chose Vermillion Falls in Hastings which is a popular spot because there are so many options! I love shooting sessions there because my creativity can run wild, there's so many different parts of the park!
Her kids were GREAT for the entire session! They were so patient as we waited for the sun to hide behind the clouds again, they followed direction beautifully and I even convinced them to get into some poses that felt awkward to them! None of the kids wanted to smile big for me though, but I did manage to get them and at one point the oldest said "She got me!". Perfectly behaved kids is definitely not an expectation I have when going into a session with kids, let's be real, I have kids and they are FAR from well behaved for photos. It is a really pleasant surprise when it does happen though!
I'm so pleased to be able to deliver some beautiful family photos for Heather to have. I can't wait until she wants another session!

Slaughter (DVD) – Jim Brown stars as the title character who wants revenge against a mob in Mexico who has killed people close to him. Slaughter is a no nonsense dude that fucks anybody that gets in his way of his revenge. Even though the F.B.I. uses him to help get the job done because the mob has never seen him Slaughter uses the F.B.I. for their resources. Jim Brown is wonderful in kicking ass but also has an equally cool piece of shit villain in a super racist young Rip Torn! This film is more fun than serious and doesn't have that Blaxploitation feel even for being released in 1972. I have always been a fan of Fred Williamson but this film help open my eyes to some of Jim Brown's work as I give it 3 stars.
The Dirty Dozen (DVD) – An all-star Hollywood flick about a secret group of Army men that are needed to go into hostile territory during WWII to take out as many Nazi officers as possible. Think "The Expendables" decades before the concept is thought of! Almost all that read this review had that parent or grandparent that would watch this on TBS, AMC throughout the years. It is one of those unforgettable flicks where Lee Marvin is a Major that is tasked with a group of prisoners he must whip into shape in a short amount of time to take on this secret mission. They all must become and move as one or die of a quick death on the battlefield or in prison if they do not cooperate. Rewatching this film I still believe the film stands the test of time. The film is violent, funny, and has that right mix of characters that you understand why so many people watch this film over and over many times as I give it 4 stars.
Beaster Day (DVD) – This is one of those recent B-flicks you have so much hope to be a fun bad flick to watch and talk about: "Sharknado", "Woodchipper Massacre" is two examples. This fails horribly! A giant Easter Bunny is eating people throughout a small town as the holiday approaches but the only hope is a crazy focused dog catcher. Now I am not expecting hundred million dollar creature effects but I am at least expecting some half-ass idea why the giant crayon drawn bunny is there eating people? Nope, the vicious fucker is just there eating people while the mayor tries to smoke weed and keep his town calm so their kids could still do their egg hunts… This feature proves I don't enjoy everything bad and for that I give this 0 stars.
Curse of the Mayans (YouTube) – A modest budgeted film from Mexico that takes on Mayan 2012 legend of something big happening. The film follows a scientist who is tasked by a billionaire to find the secrets of the Mayans for his private collection. Problem is the scientist may have stumbled upon what really happened to mankind all those years ago. Their expedition goes through a very dangerous jungle that is watched over by drug runners. They are allowed passage but warned to not disturb anything. The scientist and his group find an underwater cave that leads downward and has these Mayan drawings that were never seen before explaining the events years ago. They also awaken the ancient aliens who have laid dormant that whole time also that Mayans defeated. The movie is a bit boring at times but was shot beautifully. I cannot poop all over this movie for one I believe this movie was shot for a certain audience and us Americans suck when it comes to understanding foreign films. Two, the wide shots, the action shots, I enjoyed the cinematography. It is better than 75% of the big budget stuff we are forced fed in the U.S. on a regular basis and for that I give the film 2 stars.
Slaughter of the Innocents (Blu-ray) – Synapse Films has just released a wonderful special edition of this serial killer film that wasn't forgotten but maybe a bit lost in horror fans memories. This film was one those HBO premieres from the early 90s that took advantage of the door that was opened by "Silence of the Lambs". We forget there was a dozen or so serial killer films that used cable channels and direct-to video for their big premieres as people's movie watching habits were changing again. This feature starring Scott Glenn as F.B.I. agent Stephen Broderick was one of those early 90s movies that was well-crafted but unrealistic as a lot of us seen but maybe doesn't get nearly as much press as the 'Hannibal' series did? Five years ago there was a brutal murder in Utah that was solved and now in present time (1993) a new murder and kidnapping has happened that fits the profile. Agent Broderick travels to Utah before the killer is put to death trying to explain he never felt good about the guy that was arrested. Sadly the man is put to death and this murder that fits the profile pops up and has Broderick's interest. He wants to not only find out why this guy disappeared for five years but how he has never been found during that time. So with the help with his borderline genius son they track down the real killer who happens to be a religious nutjob who believes he is leading up to something biblical. Now true it is very unbelievable that in today's society that a kid no matter whose kid would be allowed to travel across several state lines to help investigate murders. The movie does ask for you to suspend what you know but putting that aside for future drunken conversations with your horror friends, the film is rather fun, fast-moving, and beautifully brutal at times. You have a serial killer movie friend in your group make sure you drop this one on them as it will blow their mind how cool this film still is after 25 years. The Blu-ray special features are pretty damn cool with its deleted scenes that all feel like they belong except one that were most likely cut out for time restraints than just not fitting? Also there is an alternate assault sequence that had a different actor and reasons for changing the scene which is very interesting and I never knew existed. Plus there is a wonderful interview with a much underrated talent Gabe Bartalos talking about all his effects in the film. And the fun blast from the past topper for memory sake is the original HBO promo spot! This serial killer film is not perfect by any means but still deserves 3 out of 4 stars and as usual 4 stars for the package as Synapse Films once again hits it out of the ballpark. For more details on the Blu-ray please go to: www.synapse-films.com .
The Island (Blu-ray) – This was one those movies from the 80s that was on list that haven't track down to watch until now. It stars Michael Caine as a reporter Blair Maynard who wants to travel to Florida and some small islands surrounding it to investigate the mysterious disappearance of ships in the Bermuda Triangle area. He takes his young teenage son with him to bond as he got stuck with him because his ex-wife ran off with her boy toy to Dallas. As Blair investigates he tries to bond with his son by going fishing. They are attacked by pirates who have somehow have lived off of the grid for hundreds of years and now are convinced in recent years to survive they must attack vacationers. Why is because most people would just chalk up as lost at sea or it is the Bermuda Triangle. Now instead of investigating Blair must survive David Werner and others as they plan to brain wash Blair's son into joining the pirate life and continuing their bloodline. Not a straight up horror flick but fun for summer watching as I give it 2 ½ stars.
Tammy and the T-Rex (YouTube) – Here is a B-movie from 1994 that I literally thought someone made up. You know one those rumors about a film that exists but actually doesn't and has gained internet fame as an urban legend of existing. Well folks it exists and I absolutely loved it as I couldn't stop laughing at how silly this movie was and the cast it had. Tammy and her new boyfriend Michael are in love but of course Tammy's ex-boyfriend believes she belongs to him no matter what. So Michael keeps having run-ins with the ex and keeps being warned he will get killed. One night Tammy and Michael's hot kiss fest in Tammy's bed is interrupted by the ex and his gang as they leave Michael beat up and in an animal park where he is attacked by lions. Michael ends up in a coma at the hospital from the attack and neurosurgeon/evil scientist guy who just happens to have built a robotic T-rex has a plan to bring it to life. With Michael's brain of course! The dinosaur experiment works and next thing you know what seems like a PG-rated Disney film has a dinosaur going to a party and slashing and smashing to death Tammy's ex and his gang members. This movie is complete chaos and bad, but a wonderful hilarious bad that stars a clean shaven George 'Buck' Flower, an absolutely fresh and hot and before batshit recent crazy years Denise Richards, an equally hot fresh Paul Walker, Terry Kiser, Sean Whalen, and John Franklin just for horror fans minds to be blown! As I laugh my ass off thinking about the film I give it 3 stars just for being so damn entertaining.
Demonic (DVD) – A paranormal group convinces a friend he needs to visit a house his mother was at over twenty years ago. He keeps having dreams of his mother when she was younger in what is called "The Livingston House" because there was several murders there years ago that this small southern town would like to forget. The group believes he can find the answers he has been looking for there. They go and set up for the night only to unlock something the house hasn't seen over for over twenty years. The film does star the talented Maria Bello and doesn't really break new ground in this paranormal genre but does give a watchable horror film about a demon trying to enter our world which is more I can say about a lot of the films in this genre as I give it 2 ½ stars.

Q: Javascript Regex for Indian price validation I want to validate price format which can have values as eg. ₹ 3.50L,₹ 3.50, ₹ 3.50Cr,₹ 99.50L, ₹ 3L,₹ 300.50Cr, ₹ 350Cr, ₹ 3,50,000 ,₹ 1
I have tried this Regex : ^₹ ([0-9]+(,[0-9]+)*|[0-9]+(.[0-9]+)*(L|Cr))+$ which should fail for price ₹ 3,50L but it still show as pass.
What changes I need to make

A: Following regex will get your work done:
^₹ (([0-9]+\,[0-9]+)|([0-9]+[.]?[0-9]*(?:L|Cr)?))$

([0-9]+\,[0-9]+) : Will match values where ',' is used without L or Cr.
([0-9]+[.]?[0-9]*(?:L|Cr)?) : Will match values with L or Cr. Here '.' may or may not be used.

I know that Shane Long comes in for a lot of stick but I would like to offer a word of appreciation. Not for the goal, delighted as I was that he broke the drought. Simply this. He knew he wouldn't have made the team without an onerous injury list, but still came in and gave everything for the cause. He might not be a premiership standard striker, but if all the squad showed the commitment and character that lad shows we would be in good shape. I've been offended by some of the light-weights pulling on a saints shirt over the last few years, but Shane gives all he's got. He shows the club huge respect through his approach and gets my thanks.
He's always given that and yes we all know his stats and he should have more goals but I'd have his commitment over a lazy player any day.
Definitely optimistic, just depends to me on how strong our lineup against Derby is on Wednesday - if it's near full strength we may be a bit leggy for Saturday, but even then wouldn't expect a home loss. Palace and Burnley to come, could have a nice cushion before too long!
On Shane Long, he's one on the most unselfish players I have ever seen. He is a nightmare to play against. When RK was in charge he was often in the team showing pace and power and goals. Really pleased for him and I think RH will use him more.
On the Everton game, always feel unsure against them but we did them last season, and we are playing better now.
Let's go for a home win, Nat, Shane and Stu to score COYS.
We are in the normal cycle of a medium sized club. period of failure followed by renaissance and ambition and now decline. Big dreams and boldness replaced by pragmatic "we are a small club" and recruitment of a serial failure like Hughes. Did anyone really expect him to deliver success? If you are in your 50s with a track record of failure why would you suddenly become a success? Cortese was flawed but at least thought big. We have been on a down hill trajectory since he left through lack of ambition. Until we have club leadership with hunger we will always struggle. And the question as to whether been are relegated this year is perfunctory. if it's not this year it is next. Because the plan doesn't change. And Krueger avoids any real accountability . and I'm not sure he cares. The answer lies with our new owners and a hope that they will tire of mediocrity and excuses and seek to drive for success as we saw latterly with Leicester. Otherwise we have this depressing attrition that ends up making relegation a blessed relief. I love this club but find this period the most bleak in 40 years simply because of the benign acceptance of our demise.
I'm sorry why is it normal for a club to have periods of success and failure? That just demonstrates poor management! Saints have demonstrated poor management in so many areas recruitment, failure to retain key members of staff at all levels. Trying to treat Premier League Football like any other business is just a nonsense. We are in what is now a global entertainment business and let's be honest who would pay to watch Sfc? We obviously cannot compete with the financial muscle of the big teams but we have fallen behind in so many ways, I am a big admirer of Eddie Howe and Bournemouth, great to watch, very competitive and buy wisely. Sfc have blown millions recently on really poor choices eg Boufal, Carillo plus so many others, we can't defend, we can't score today's performance was just pitiful, to start playing 4-1 in the second half is just a team going through the motions, taking their bloated salaries. Perhaps relegation would necessitate the mass clear out of all our dead wood. As an Sfc fan of 50 yrs I have never felt so despondent and so angry at where we have ended up and it need never have happened. So let's see what happens in the next few weeks.
Two good post's there-congratulations. To avoid any further supporter unrest and despair please let the TEA LADY choose our next Manager!
I still think the new owner only has purchased any stake for development of land around Southampton, being refused sale of a large plot of land in the years previous for development. I know I know that's my doubting negative head speaking. but Mr gao does seem quite uninvolved. look at the comparison of say the Leicester owner (yes I know its totally different and no I don't know what goes on behind the scene) and I know this is a "personal" investment for him and his daughter but what has actually been impacted by their ownership? We're going backwards, we have no identity and we've gone from being everyone's second favourite team to laughing stock relegation fodder. I still stand behind my thought of bringing it back to clearing out these numpty big transfer signings, clear out the dead wood (not on loan) and get a good blend of youth, talent and desire. Then find a coach who is willing to emplore that and excite the fans and the league again. right now we are there for the taking home and away and that's been the case for at least 2 and a half years.
Agree about Mr. Gao. Seems totally disinterested in football or Southampton FC. I can't understand the owners just sitting back and allowing the club to fall apart. Surely they realise that their stake in the club will be next to worthless if we fall down through the leagues again. I would have thought that they would be making decent money available for transfers in January just to try and keep us in the premier league . If they have no interest in football start looking for someone else to purchase the club.
Ralph is still our best bet but he needs to control the negative comments. We have enjoyed the new manager bounce and now it is now down to trench warfare till the end of the season. Comments about unbelievable stupidity won't help and a spell in the second tier is now looking likely. Big test of Ralph's temperment over the next month.


Last Friday, a second Massmail regarding a reported case of measles on campus was sent out to the student body.
Measles, the world's leading cause of vaccine-preventable childhood mortality, is an airborne virus that is transmitted through sick individuals by coughing, sneezing and contact with mucous membranes (like the eyes and mouth). The virus can remain in the air up to two hours after coughing or sneezing, and is so contagious that, if one person has it, 90 percent of unvaccinated people around the infected person will also contract it.
In simple terms, vaccines work by creating an immune response to a version of the virus that won't make you sick. The viral particles in a vaccine dose are inactive and trigger the immune system to act as ailment-causing pathogens — creating a supply of antibodies that will recognize the disease if you were to ever encounter it.
The most common myth about vaccines is they cause autism. This stems from a 1998 article in "The Lancet" that claimed to have studied children whose parents' associated their various developmental diseases with vaccines. However, it later was revealed that this fallacious study was partially funded by lawyers representing those parents in lawsuits against vaccine manufacturers.
The results of this "study" have never been successfully replicated, and in 2010, "The Lancet" retracted the article. On top of that, the British General Medical Council found the paper's author "had acted unethically and had shown 'callous disregard' for the children in his study," further showcasing the invalidity of autism-vaccine claim.
A more important, and more real, consequence of not getting vaccinated is jeopardizing the herd immunity of the community.Herd immunity — the concept that everyone who can get vaccinated to protect those who can't — is severely weakened when people able to receive vaccines don't, creating a larger pool of people who can become infected.
It's easy to forget that campus is not just an 18-22 year old population; some students on this campus suffer from autoimmune diseases such as diabetes, systemic lupus and multiple sclerosis. In many cases, people suffering from autoimmune diseases cannot be vaccinated because they are at greater risk of contracting the virus they are being vaccinated for.
The Daily Illini Editorial Board is calling on students to make sure they are properly vaccinated to protect those who cannot otherwise protect themselves. Herd immunity protects the elderly, young children who can't yet get vaccinated and immunocompromised people, all of which exist in both our campus community and Champaign-Urbana at large.

It is said that the origin of Raku ware lay in the making of a single bowl for the tea ceremony.
To understand Raku, it is necessary to go back in time and place. Back to Japan, the region of Kyoto in the Momoyama period (1573-1615).
Raku ware was started by potter Chôjirô around 1580. During this time, colourful pottery based on the Chinese three-colour Sancai glazing came into production. Chôjirô was one of the potters practicing such techniques. Raku ware, being produced by the same type of firing and glazing as the Chinese Sancai ware, evolved into a particular glazing method. This glazing method is characterized by the use of monochrome black and red glazes. Key to the technique is that the most-often hand shaped tea bowls were removed from the hot kiln and allowed to cool in the open air.
When Sen Rikyû – tea master inside the Jarakudai Palace, built by Toyotomo Hideyoshi, the leading warrior statesman of that time – saw Chôjirô's sculptures in Kyoto, he commissioned him to make tea bowls for his wabi-styled tea ceremony.
Hideyoshi was so pleased with the bowls he used the term Raku, which is usually translated as "enjoyment" or "ease". It is believed that Hideyoshi presented Chôjirô's son Jokei with a seal bearing the Chinese character for Raku. Raku then became the name of the family that produces these wares.
Since then, both the Raku technique and tradition have been passed down through the family, without any modifications, to the present 15th generation.
The American potter Paul Soldner introduced the use of a reduction chamber at the end of the firing process in the 1960's.
Characteristic of the firing process is that pieces are removed from the hot kiln. By using a reduction chamber, pieces removed from the hot kiln are placed in a container filled with masses of combustible material. By closing the container a reduction atmosphere is created. After the combustible material catches fire, the oxygen level decreases, which results in extraordinary glaze effects. Crackled and reduction-oxidation glazes are typical of the so-called American Raku technique.
Livin' Beauty Ceramics are made with love and respect for people and the planet. Therefore all materials used are as close to nature as possible. We are keenly aware of the need to care for Mother Nature and we are constantly working on minimizing our ecological footprint.
All elements, earth, water, fire, and air are present and used when making our ceramics. We literally feel the earth in our hands every day. We are in a constant dialogue with our suppliers to remain as close to nature as possible.
We would draw your attention to the fact that the handmade, artisan nature of the product results in uniquely individual colour, form and pattern variations. Images are provided to give the best indication of the character piece, but each item is unique.
Due to the applied technique the vases are not waterproof. Therefore is suggested to always make use of an inside plant container or foil.
We will be happy to assist you and provide all information required.
Formless clay is being given form. A creative process with endless possibilities. Are we going to create beyond the boundaries? Explore areas where no one has been before?
Livin' Beauty Ceramics offers the opportunity to customize products. We can make your design, adapt our designs to fit your wishes or create something new together. The possibilities are as broad as your imagination.
Please do not hesitate to contact us so that we may explore the opportunities together.
Livin' Beauty Ceramics are made by applying the artisan firing technique generally known as Raku. Below some images of the unique techniques that are applied to make your ceramics.
Molds are used to give shape to formless clay.
Every item is hand made.
During the rapid cooling the glaze is literally breaking, causing a crackled effect.
The fire is either oxidizing the precious metals within the glaze or coloring the break lines in the crackled technique.

Military service to benefit jobseekers
By 배지숙

As early as April, people who have served in the military will get extra credits when they apply for jobs in public sectors, the Ministry of National Defense said Monday.
The measure is expected to benefit mainly men, who spend 21 to 24 months in military camps as their compulsory military duty.
However, the plan is likely to trigger resistance from women's rights groups and others who claim the extra credit system goes against fair competition in the job market.
According to the ministry, a relevant bill is pending at the National Assembly. The bill grants an extra 2.5 percent on the original scores in written or on-field tests governmental and public organizations hold. A 20 percent quota for those hired through the extra credits was also suggested.
The bill was submitted to help soldiers who complain of being left behind by women during military service. The torpedo attack of the naval warship Cheonan last March and the North's shelling of Yeonpyeong in November made soldiers even more anxious, said ministry spokesman Kim Min-seok.
"Because they have taken two-year breaks from job searching and other social activities, they feel behind others once they get discharged. They even feel deprived and isolated. Especially after all the defensive incidents they experienced last year, I think people will understand that the soldiers need compensation by society," he said.
The military authorities are now in the process of persuading and convincing the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family Affairs and women's rights groups, who previously brought a similar law to the Constitutional Court where it was nullified.
The Constitutional Court in 1999 ruled a 39-year-old military credit law to be unconstitutional. The law bound employers, including the government, to give up to 5 percent higher marks to discharged soldiers. The justices said the rule was against the rights of women and disabled people who are not drafted to the military.
However, there have been growing demands for the extra credits to help young men who are reluctant to do mandatory service.
"Sometimes you ask yourself: What did you get in return for spending the best part of your youth for the country?" said a 30-year-old job seeker who wished to be identified only by his last name Jang.
The Gender Equality Ministry is continuing to stand against the bill.
"The ministry agrees that the discharged soldiers need appropriate compensation for their patriotism. But the extra credit might not be the only solution: pension, job training and others should be discussed, too," said ministry spokesman Kwon Yong-hyun. "Besides, the passage of the law is up to the lawmakers," he added.
"The extra credit is against basic rights of equality," said Lee Soo-yeon, a member of the Korean National Council of Women. "The Constitutional Court's ruling means extra credit is unjustifiable. The moderation of numbers or quotas won't do."

Pinot Meunier (sometimes just called "Meunier") is a red-wine grape of the Pinot family (which famously mutates easily), most closely related to Pinot Noir.
Pinot Meunier seems to have emerged as a distinct varietal about five centuries ago. At one time, it was widely grown throughout northern France; it is still prevalent, but is now especially concentrated in the Champagne region, where it is one of the three major grapes used in the making of sparkling Champagne wines, to which it contributes body and richness. It is also nowadays starting to be bottled as a monovarietal red, though such bottlings are still not common. It can be vinified as a red of some depth, or also as a rosé, or as an off-dry red, even occasionally as a white wine; it is the table red that is of most interest among the monovarietal bottlings.
In Champagne, for no clear reason (some trace it back a prejudice of the original M. Moët), Pinot Meunier was long somewhat disdained, considered a "minor" component of Champagnes; more recently (though the house of Krug championed Pinot Meunier throughout), it has come to be seen as important and durable, and some excellent makers are now even producing 100% Pinot Meunier Champagnes. The idea that Pinot Meunier, as a blending ingredient or on its own, does not age well is belied by numerous counter-examples, but it continues to be parroted.
Pinot Meunier as a monovarietal table red shows clear similarities to its more famous cousin, Pinot Noir, but has a distinctive qualities all its own. Such wines are typically light to medium in body and fruity in aroma and flavor, often richly so. Some describe a "smoky" quality, others refer to a "rustic" quality (whatever that may be suposed to indicate, possibly what others call "earthiness"). Flavors cited range from the typical red berries (especially raspberry) through the darker blue-black fruits (such as blueberry), as well as an background of "spiciness".
In France, it is felt that by far the best Pinot Meunier comes from old vines (something true of many varietals), so New World specimens may not have as much depth as the grape is capable of.
There seems little awareness so far of monovarietal Pinot Meunier, and the literature readily available is sparse; that is a great shame, as it is a delicious wine.
Factoid: Pinot Meunier is genetically a "chimera": its inner cell layers are composed of a Pinot genotype which is close to Pinot noir or Pinot gris; the outer, epidermal, layer is however made up of a mutant, distinctive, genotype.
"Compared to Pinot noir, Pinot Meunier produces lighter colored wines with slightly higher acid levels but can maintain similar sugar and alcohol levels. As part of a standard champagne blend, Pinot Meunier contributes aromatics and fruity flavors to the wine. Champagnes with a substantial proportion of Pinot Meunier tend not to have as much significant aging potential as champagnes that are composed primarily of Chardonnay or Pinot noir. It is therefore most commonly used for champagnes that are intended to be consumed young, when the soft, plushy fruit of the Pinot Meunier is at its peak. A notable exception is the Champagne house of Krug which makes liberal use of Pinot Meunier in its long-lived prestige cuvees."
"But a few producers out there – almost exclusively outside of France, in places like Germany, the U.S., and Australia – do produce red 100% varietal Pinot Meunier. Those wines may be tough to find because of their scarcity and the fact that most Pinot Meunier planted in those countries goes into sparkling wines, but they are worth seeking out, as they are usually light, crisp, highly drinkable red wines with a surprising level of complexity to them, wines that with a slight chill on them rival roses as the perfect quaff on a hot summer's eve."
"Though Meunier is rarely sold as a single varietal it still covers over 1/3 the vineyards in Champagne. Slightly higher in acidity that Pinot Noir, the grape from which it most likely mutated. Similar flavors and aromas to Pinot Noir are common, though with less earthiness and more of a high-toned citrusy character. In addition to the vast Champagne vineyards Meunier can also be found in many still reds of the Loire valley, most notably those of Moselle, Touraine and Cotes de Toul. In the Wurttenberg area of southwestern Germany it is known as Mullerrebe and Schwarzriesling. Pinot Meunier may also be found in the traditional method sparklers from Australia and Carneros. Meunier takes its name from the bottom of its leaves which are white as if coated with flour (meunier is French for 'Miller')."
"Winemakers across the pond hardly have a monopoly on this grape. A handful of American winemakers craft wine with this varietal as well, though their focus is on still, dry wine, not bubbly. Among them are: Long Island's Duck Walk is the only winery on the East Coast to produce a still, dry wine exclusively from Meunier. The wine is light-bodied with fleshy notes of raspberry and a touch of smokiness. River Road sources their fruit from the Russian River Valley, crafting a wine with lots of depth and style. This version is more old world in style, with notes of blueberry, ginger and spice. Novy Family Wines – owned in part by Adam and Dianna (Novy) Lee of Siduri Wines - also makes a still Meunier that's big and bold with notes of raspberry fruit. And, at sparkling wine estate Domaine Chandon, their Meunier is still, not bubbly. It also shows the wine's fruity flavors of cherry and raspberry with hints of earth and oak."
"But about a dozen American wineries say the French have got meunier all wrong. Instead of making white wine out of it, Yankees are fermenting pinot meunier on the skins and making red table wine, as they do with merlot, cabernet and syrah. They're doing so not to be different but simply because pinot meunier tastes better than most winemakers or wine drinkers realized it could."
"Pinot Meunier can be used to make still red wines that often are fruit-forward in flavor and light in tannin, akin to Pinot Noir. . . Meunier is winning over fans who like its bright, fresh flavor of raspberries and cranberries, balanced with tannins. Best drunk after less than a year or two in the bottle, it has a tangy, refreshing finish that begs another sip."
" Champagne makers look to Meunier for body enhancement or plushness. The wine is high in acid and light in color. Considering today's consumer trend for drinking wines that lean into their acid profiles, why isn't more Pinot Meunier bottled unblended as serious red wine?"
"The overall impression from this wine is very similar to Pinot Noir and I would have liked to taste this side by side with a Pinot Noir from the same vintage and producer to see what the differences really are. If I had this served to me at a blind tasting, I would peg it as Pinot Noir every single time and probably wouldn't hesitate about it."
"Short longevity also keeps it from many appearances bottled as a stand-alone varietal red wine, although some areas of France bottle a rosé made predominantly from meunier."
"If you can find a bottle or decide to order online, you'll first notice the ruby to magenta color, and an unexpected level of translucence. It's this same light color that keeps you from ever seeing it when blended into Champagne. You'll find bouquets of cranberry and cherry, but you should also notice a particular scent pinot meunier is known for — smoke. The grapes themselves have a natural smokiness that comes straight through to the wine. Take a sip and the fruity flavors will dominate. You'll likely pick up notes of strawberries and raspberries. Pinot meunier has relatively high acid levels, so you'll find that they are brighter and crisper than most reds, and you'll sometimes pick up a tart cherry flavor."
"If you do find a standalone still Pinot Meunier . . . you're likely to find 'a dry, fruity wine with a slightly bitter taste. Its color is light red or rosé, and the crisp wine has an acidic tone and a slight smokiness. It is a medium-bodied wine with a strong aroma of alcohol.'"
"The wine is Pinot Noir's rustic country cousin…Mary Ann to Pinot Noir's Ginger. It is overladen with wonderful plummy fruit, great aromatics, and is a wonderful accompaniment to all kinds of food."
There is a surprisingly high number of monovarietal Pinot Meunier red table wines to be found for sale, but the great majority are over—most well over—our arbitrary $20 price limit, or are very scarce, or both. If you want a reasonably available Pinot Meunier for under $20, your choices are few, and those we list below (and most or all push that $20 envelope rather hard). But, though the choices may be few, the wine is well worth a go.
♦ Light medium cherry red color with pale meniscus; cherry, baked raspberry nose; creamy textured, ripe cherry, raspberry, raspberry syrup palate; medium-plus finish. 90+ points.
♦ The color is a light transparent ruby red, kind of like cherry jello. Upon first giving it a sniff, I got some floral notes, but they were somewhat quickly replaced by cherry and earthy aromas. Light red fruit and earthy flavors(I'm not good at getting more specific on this front yet) with a bit of lemon zest and oak(not overwhelming, just barely there in a support role) on the palate. The mid-palate shows some smoky-leathery flavors (the producers description said pumpernickel, maybe that is what I was getting) with some nutty notes towards the finish. It was very well balanced, light, and almost delicate. Reminded me of some lighter Pinot Noirs I've tried that weren't too fruity. It was seriously a pleasure to drink.
♦ Fresh picked cherries on a hot day + served w toast w juicier all warm red cherry palate, savory mineral accents + finish.
♦ Love the aromas: spicy black pepper and green herbs, loamy soil, on top of red apples and sour cherries. On the palate this sports refreshing acidity on a frame of noticeably grippy tannins. Plenty of fruit in the form of ripe cherries and plums, but I love the non-fruit complexity: black pepper, smoke, earth, cedar and dried roses. Very pleasant now, but this could improve over the next three to five years. 89 points.
♦ This is a highly unusual wine made from a traditional Champagne grape variety, with 12% of the South African Pinotage variety blended in. Aromas like dried herbs and cedar, intriguing flavors like black tea and pomegranate juice and a beautiful balance between acidity, ripeness and a lightly tannic texture make a compelling combination. 91 points, Editors' Choice.
♦ The nose shows red fruits, strawberry and cherry, and pencil lead. Tarter red fruits show on the palate, cranberry and redcurrant, along with sage and pencil lead. Flavors don't change, but deepen on the mid-palate, while the pencil lead lingers on the finish. Tannins sneak up on the mid-palate and finish, smooth and drying. Drink with roast pork loin. Recommended. 88 points.
♦ The 2012 Saint Gregory Pinot Meunier…is a redheaded beauty that's rarely found as a single varietal, and it has generous notes of gingerbread.
♦ [P]ronounced earthy, mushroomy character, with some cherry fruit and noticeable tannins.
♦ Juicy and crisp with tangy acidity and racy berry fruit; silky and long with fresh flavors and a long finish. 88 points.
(Russian River Valley, California. Apparently only available at Total Wine outlets).
♦ River Road sources their fruit from the Russian River Valley, crafting a wine with lots of depth and style. This version is more old world in style, with notes of blueberry, ginger and spice.
♦ A boutique-scale release, the 2008 Russian River Valley Pinot Meunier is vinted from the second crop of this more productive cousin of Pinot Noir, and owes its concentration to late-picked, Lilliputian clusters. Wild grape, violets and juicy Beaujolais-style flavor finishes on a firm, plum skin note.
♣ Sonoma County harvest Fair (2010), Gold Medal.
♦ Light in color and weight, this is a nicely composed Pinot Meunier. Old world in style, it's integrated in raspberry fruit and a hint of mint, making it soft and easy to drink. 88 points.
♦ River Road also won a silver medal [at the fourth annual Sommelier Challenge] for its 2011 Russian River Valley Pinot Meunier. Pinot meunier is typically used in sparkling wine and Champagne blends, but there are a handful of producers who make a table wine from this fairly rare grape variety.
The problem here is simply availability: there are praiseworthy Pinot Meunier bottlings from not a few estimable vintners—Van der Kamp, Novy Family Winery, Bouchaine, La Rochelle Winery, Bjornstad, just to mention a few—but all are available only from a very few retailers (typically one or two, or often just the winery itself). The one exception is the widely distributed Domaine Chandon Carneros Pinot Meunier, from the noted champagne maker.

Q: Which heat capacity is used in the heat equation? The heat equation is often written as $\frac{\partial T}{\partial t} = \frac{\kappa}{c} \nabla^2T$ where $\kappa$ is the thermal conductivity and $c$ is a heat capacity per volume.
I often see $c$ written as $c_P$ implying that it is the heat capacity (per unit volume) for a system held at constant pressure, but I was wondering if this was necessary of not?
I understand that in most 'everyday' experimental examples, pressure will be the variable that is held constant, and that for liquids and solids there isn't much difference between $c_P$ and $c_V$ anyway. However, in theory, can the heat capacity in this equation be with whatever variable you want to hold constant (so could be either $c_P$ or $c_V$ depending on your situation?
I also found this similar question but I couldn't find a definitnive answer to my question in their answers: In deriving the heat transfer equation, why do we use heat capacity at constant pressure?.

A: Both options ($C_p$ or $C_v$) are approximations.
In the general situation, a non-rigid solid material will expand non-uniformly and therefore will have a time-dependent stress distribution, which stores internal strain energy.
The simplest assumption is that the object is not mechanically constrained and that the non-uniform internal strain energy is small. Therefore the internal pressure in the solid remains approximately constant and $C_p$ is the relevant thermal capacity.
For a fluid, the internal pressure is uniform (ignoring the weight of the fluid and any other inertia forces) and the correct choice is more obviously dependent on whether the volume is constrained or not.
If the object is constrained to have constant volume, $C_v$ would be a better approximation, since it takes account of the internal strain energy (assuming the internal stress field is uniform, of course).


I'll just start off by saying that this thread is for mature audiences only (18+) and is not for the faint of heart, or if you don't want to see your waifu get harmed in any way, shape, or form.
and lo and behold with the dark atmosphere of the wards, I've come up with ... something. Keep in mind that this is just an experiment of sorts, and I will continue to upload shorts as a start before I can make a full-fledged fanfic. Also that these were originally ideas and just excerpts before they're anything else. Constructive criticism is welcome. Anyways, enjoy!
She was alone. There was nobody left in her world left to fight, as she decimated the last of the Youkai Rebellion that formed an alliance to try and bring balance back to the land once loved by her. She became extremely power hungry over time, copying abilities and finally draining the life-force from their leader holding the leader up by the throat in front of her comrades and her two Shikigami, and claiming that ability as hers. Once the deed was done, nobody could withstand her relentless wrath as all knelt before her or died a martyr. Now there is always an overcast over the land that the black-hearted dreamer now ruled with an iron fist. She became known as "The Dark One". The trees became barren, as all the greenery was gone. There were no more seasons as The Dark One also dictated the weather, as relentless droughts plagued the land when it wasn't an overcast, the human village, now a ghost town; and as the dimensional shift in power all went to her, The Dark One, she tried time and time again to find a challenge worthy of her notice. Anybody that came to her 'shrine' seeking any sort of reprieve was usually denied, and nobody that was powerless dared look her in the eye, as she took that as an act of defiance. This went on for years. Until... she was finally alone.
Rumors turned into murmurs, as whispers in the wind finally caught Reimu's attention that a dark version of herself wandered the village at night on a full moon committing acts that were illegal in all of Gensokyo. No wonder there were more challengers. Some youkai even stopped coming to the shrine entirely and had taken full hostility to Reimu. But Reimu knows well enough to never break the rules set by herself and her mother from before, along with select few powerful youkai. Reimu started losing important allies to her shrine. Marisa was still her friend, and once they were against everyone in this conspiracy, they couldn't trust anyone anymore. Reimu was public enemy number 1. The two of them tried to get to the bottom of these strange incidents, but to no avail. All of their investigations either ended in defeat or came up fruitless that brought more questions than answers. Marisa and Reimu couldn't even get close to the heavily guarded human village because of all the fear and rumors that spread like a wildfire.
Immense battles took place in the village on a full moon against shadows and darkness, that would relentlessly and viciously attack anyone and everyone in sight. Bird-eyed youkai would see the main shade of black. A silhouette of what looked like Reimu. The defenders would always hold fast against this foe, nearly fighting for their lives. Every full moon, and the shadow would come back stronger than before and with better counters and tactics. The Tengu had to step in the last time; they had the last straw as they decided to keep Reimu under lock and key. Reimu turned herself in peacefully. Until the night of the full moon arrived, when most of the youkai thought the problem was solved. All but three youkai decided to defend the village by themselves. And once the dawn came, the collateral damage was so great, that everyone was shocked to hear the exact same report.
A Shadow version of Reimu was attacking the village again. Despite the fact the real Reimu was locked up. Evacuations were underway as everyone in Gensokyo were on full alert of a volatile infiltrator of a shadow dopple ganger.
Hey, people I'm back with a Halloween special edition. The disclaimer still stands and is in effect.
She made the doll with the help of the other shanghai and hourai dolls. But she did most of the work on handcrafting the beautifully, uniquely, detailed doll. Alice did her usual thing giving the doll certain magic powders in order for it to do her bidding, but this time she changed up the recipe. Exchanging a few things going completely out of her way, and comfort zone, in order to create her dream doll. The last ingredient that Alice used was a soul of the lost dead. That can be found everywhere at this time of year. When she was finished, Alice stared into the eyes of the finely crafted doll seated before her; as she gave it a command, "Speak,"
She rejoiced as she finally attained her life goal which was to create a sentient doll. Little did she know, that would be the last doll she would ever make. Even though the soul power of the doll was weak, she could feel the energy ebb and flow between the two of them. Through further experimentation, Alice pitted the Paradox doll in combat in order for training for danmakufu battles. She started easy on the doll with only one shanghai doll versus the Paradox doll. The Paradox doll decimated the shanghai doll with no effort. She upped the ante with two hourai dolls this time, and ended up with the same result. She kept throwing more dolls at it, until Alice had to use her last resort: The Final Goliath Doll. They fought for a solid 2 hours until the Paradox doll nearly figured out that dolls were being controlled by Alice herself. So she stopped the fight short.
"Take a break," Alice said aloud. And without a word both the Final Goliath Doll and Paradox went into her house.
"If I remember correctly, I read somewhere... that if you torture another creature be it a lion or a simple dog. It may turn on you..."
Alice was confused after hearing this. Arguing that it was training and even gave the Paradox doll a simple explanation of how the training will work. Although, when Alice returned to her house, there was something amiss. There was a lack of dolls flying around her house and under her present control. When she went inside her own house, Alice was horrified to see most of her shanghai and hourai dolls' mutilated and scattered about. She saw sitting on the counter Paradox and a knife. After the initial shock of the whole scene subsided within Alice, she ordered a time out for Paradox.
When repairs to her house were done, it was late and around midnight. Alice paced around her house anxious and unable to sleep. Every time that she passed Paradox, its' eyes and head would always follow and inspect her every movement, tilted at an angle in a curious way. When Alice made her next pass around Paradox something caught her eye that was not in the original plans for the design of Paradox. There, was a tear across the face of Paradox as if it were a toothy white grin, still at an angle. Alice froze at the sight of this, as the candles and oil lamps went out without warning. Alice backed herself into a corner terrified as the moonlight through the window still showed the evil grin. She blinked choking on a scream, and suddenly, Paradox was in a crawling position head twisted upside-down on the floor closer. Alice blinked again and felt a killing intention from the doll still in the same position except closer. Alice tried kicking the doll, but, the doll caught her kick as it started to climb up her leg and bite into her. Alice screamed... as she woke up.
There right in front of her was Paradox, with a smile stitched across its' face.
