Mongodb operator 1.11
Deployment of op and db via Helm chart
simple replicat set with 3 nodes (no shards)
user-secret provided by “external secrets” (values from Vault) under db deployment
The operator deployment works without any issues.
Deployment of the database works as well.
The operator mostly creates the external secret itself with wrong values (hardcoded users and random passwords from percona-server-mongodb-operator/secrets.go at main · percona/percona-server-mongodb-operator · GitHub, line 79 etc)
This leads to a running cluster with “wrong passwords and users” where we ran into login problem after a restore (of course).
Why is the secret created at all when an external secret is defined ?
It is not clear to us and from our point of view, this should never happens.
It seems to be a timing problem when the secret is not in place when the operator starts deploying the database. When deploying the secret manually in advance, the beahviour is correct (what we could test).
It takes a few second for external secret to provide the secret. Sometimes, the operator states “secret not found” in the logs which is correct, but mostely, the operator creates the secret itself.
This behaviour prevents us from auto-deployment via pipelines, too, because the operator is not cluster-wide-aware yet and has to be deployed per db instance (where each runs in it’s own namespace).
Any suggestion very welcome.
Thx in advance

Rep. Phil Gingrey, R-Ga., on Wednesday unveiled the 2011 Federal Employee Accountability Act (H.R. 122). The legislation, first introduced in 2009, repeals two sections of the 1978 Civil Service Reform Act that allow federal employees to use official work hours to perform union functions or participate in union activities.
In an e-mail to colleagues, Gingrey wrote that Office of Personnel Management data show federal employees used 2.9 million official work hours to engage in collective bargaining or arbitration of grievances in fiscal 2008. Those activities cost $120.7 million, up from $113 million in fiscal 2007. The legislation will save $600 million over five years, he added.
"We have seen an increase in union activity on official time lead to a more inefficient workforce, and it is time to stop subsidizing this problem," Gingrey wrote. "While families all over the nation are tightening their belts and cutting their own spending, it should not be the practice of the federal government to increase the size and spending of its budget and federal agencies."
Matt Biggs, legislative and political director for the International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers, called the information "misleading and downright inaccurate."
Enactment of Gingrey's bill would represent a "significant step backward in the effective functioning of a taxpayer-centered labor-management relations system in the federal government," said Colleen Kelley, president of the National Treasury Employees Union, in a statement.
"Make no mistake about it though, these will be serious attacks on federal workers and it is critically important that we not only work against them here in Washington, but also that we significantly build our membership internally to levels that will make us even more successful," Biggs wrote in an e-mail.

Getting in, Getting out, and Getting on with Your Life: The Complete Cynics' Series to and through Graduate Education in Clinical Psychology Book 1 - Getting In (Volume 1)
The decision to go to graduate school should not be taken lightly. It is likely to consume your finances, youth, and most of your sanity over an indeterminate period of years. It can also be difficult to know how to navigate the process of getting in, getting out, and getting on with your life. If you're going to pursue a terminal degree (and you can't be talked out of it), then you should be armed with knowledge that will give you the best chance to get what you want. The cynics' guide series is meant to be a road map through the extremely competitive journey to and through a Ph.D. in clinical psychology. This is the first book in the series, which focuses on what you should be doing during your undergraduate years to gain acceptance into a clinical Ph.D. program. It is written in a direct, humorous style that conveys advice across a period of years. It incorporates the personal experiences of the author in terms of what he did right, what he did wrong, and knowledge gained from the other side of the desk as a professor.

A broadly applicable method for the quantitative and continuous measurement of airway resistance in man is described. It permits the simultaneous measurement of air flow (breath velocity) and alveolar pressure during any breathing pattern. Alveolar pressure is calculated from body plethysmograph pressure (plethysmogram) changes coincident with the compression and expansion of lung air during expiration and inspiration, respectively. The plethysmograph interior is maintained at body temperature and complete H2O saturation. This avoids the errors in measurement due to plethysmograph pressure changes produced by temperature and humidity changes in the inspired and expired breath and also obviates the necessity of using only a panting type breathing pattern. Data on three normal subjects at near resting and near maximum breathing efforts are presented and discussed. This improved method, permitting airway resistance measurements during any breathing pattern, should find application in diagnosis and assessment of treatment of pulmonary diseases as well as in the investigation of several basic pulmonary function problems.

Country music singer and songwriter, Chase Bryant known for his charting-topping hits "Take It On Back" and "Little Bit of You" joins the us for Tulip Time! This show brings all the best of his talent and the excitement of his music and inspiration.
By age 21, Bryant had two Top 10 singles and had toured with the likes of Brantley Gilbert and Tim McGraw. It looked like he had it all on the outside, but on the inside Bryant felt inauthentic and was in a dark hole of anxiety and depression. Bryant was blessed with a second chance at life after a failed suicide attempt, and he recently released his debut full-length album "Upbringing," which is his honest portrait of struggle and resilience. Throughout the 12 tracks — 10 of which were written by Bryant — he channels his emotions through music and learns how to love and trust himself.
Don't miss your chance to see Chase live in Holland, Michigan in May 2022!

Gospel musician, Gifty Osei, is still basking in the glow of her new marriage to leading member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Hopeson Adorye. The singer has looked delirious with happiness and she is apparently planning to celebrate her husband by naming her upcoming album after him.
Gifty Osei and Mr Adorye tied the knot during the Christmas festivities and the ceremony was held privately at an unnamed location in Accra, just like much of the relationship was.
The Daily Graphic reports that unlike some of her female colleagues who keep their maiden name even after marriage in a bit to sustain their brand, Gifty has had no qualms letting her old name Osei, which she has used in the industry for about 12 years, go and take up her new name, Adorye.
On Saturday, January 5, Gifty Osei gave her first performance since she got married when she mounted the stage for TV3's Music Music.

When asked how it has been working with the mother of two for 12 years, her manager is quoted as saying: “It has been amazing, Gifty is one talented musician who knows and understands what she is doing."
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that Gifty Osei and Hopeson Adorye of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) are now married.
The traditional marriage ceremony between the two lovebirds happened today, December 28, 2018, at a private ceremony in Tema Community 11.

As the hood legend goes, Chicago once had a little girl named “Lil Snoop” who may have killed at least twenty people.
She lost her brother to gun violence and paced those same Chicago streets with a vengeance, or did she?
When you hear her mother sob about both of her children dying to violence, you wonder how does this happen?
I have a question for mother’s that have lost their children to this Violence, you don’t wonder why your child has new clothes that you can’t afford?
If your son or daughter is wearing Gucci, Prada, Fendi and you are wearing Wal-Mart’s Faded Glory, that doesn’t make you wonder where a 15-year-old, with no job received the money to buy these high dollar items?
It is never a mother’s fault of her child’s death, but shouldn’t it be a tidbit of a sign that maybe your child is not spending his afternoons at the local library?
Shouldn’t this be a clue that your child and their friends are living a dangerous life?
K.I. went into a violent tail spin that would not let her rest until she avenged her brother’s death.
Now, did she live a short life of crime or was she just a victim of a false reputation, and a chomped up legend?
We may never have the complete truth about this female teenage assassin due to the fact that she is now with her brother, but in a casket of her own.
Now, she may be respected, and bragged about like someone with a high credibility, but that did not stop the gun shots from entering her little body, and ultimately revoking her chance at life.
K.I. was shot nine times in the throat, face and everywhere else…
Her blood was left splattered with her lifeless on the step….
Was her death retaliation or just someone else trying to earn stripes in the game?
Either way here is a brief look at the Chiraq’s late soldier in an invisible war,Gakira K.I” Barnes.

time of 125 minutes for 29.99$.
Tokyopop is definitely shaping up to be a contender.
In regards to GTO,
AnimeNation had this to report: "The first
volume will contain episodes 1-4, including the 60 minute double episode
first episode. Beginning with volume 2, each volume will contain 5

(02:18 PM EST): Due out on
12/18/2001, ADV Films releases the second box set for the Southern Cross
segment of the
Legacy Box Sets. We've gone through this set in-between all the
hentai this week and have composed some thoughts on it.
(01:18 PM EST): More of a digest
review than a full-out one, we've added the
Set from NuTech Entertainment to our ever growing review library.
AnimEigo talks Macross
(09:37 AM EST): With things just
about done, AnimEigo has updated
their site about the Macross release, complete with a picture of all the
"Everything is at the replicators. We expect to receive the last 3
check discs (real discs) this week for approval. Assuming no problems (and
there should be none!), then we expect to get our first shipment of about
2000 sets around December 18th, and 2000 more every couple of days. We
will ship around the clock through the holiday season. "
(09:36 AM EST): Congratulations
go out to our twenty eigth winner in the ADV DVD A Day contest, Tony Case.
Tony snagged a copy of the Blue Seed Vol. #4!
(09:34 AM EST): Released back on
11/10/2001, NuTech Entertainment put out another light and fun hentai box
set known as
Welcome to Pia Carrot.
Wednesday, November 28th, 2001
Ronin Warriors tidbits
(11:17 PM EST): With the
announcement about Ronin Warriors coming to DVD, there's been some concern
about whether a real uncut dub was done as there were some minor edits to
the show. Bandai's Charles McCarter posted some clarifying information
earlier today on the subject. From what was said, it looks as if it won't
be a true bilingual release, but both will be uncut in one sense. The
original Japanese version will be properly subtitled and have its original
uncut track while the US broadcast version will be as uncut as it ever
was. There are apparently some differences between the two video sources
that a synch-up cannot be done. But for fans of the dub, Bandai has gotten
the original TV masters from the licensor, complete with the openings and
endings and bumpers (and commercial blacks). Fans of the Japanese series
will also be happy by getting that version available for the first time.
No word on whether both will appear on the same disc or if they'll be
treated as separate releases such as Cardcaptors/Cardcaptor Sakura.
(11:06 PM EST): It took nearly a
year since the first volume was released, but ADV Films has finally seen
fit to set 12/11/2001 as the date to release the second volume of
Flash: Angels at World's End. They've also taken the things
they've learned since the first volume and applied them here.
(01:32 PM EST): I can see it now
when I go back to work next week. "So Chris, how'd you spend your
vacation?" "Oh, I watched a lot of hentai" "...".
So just for you, here's another new hentai review today. Released on
11/10/2001, NuTech Entertainment's box set of
in the Court scores quite well with us.
(11:00 AM EST): Due out on
12/04/2001, ADV Films is releasing what many thought they'd never put out,
Diaries Collectors Edition. For those who've waited, the payoff is
(08:33 AM EST): Congratulations
go out to our twenty seventh winner in the ADV DVD A Day contest, Jon
Allen. Jon snagged a copy of the Original Dirty Pair Vol. #1!
(09:43 AM EST): Released back on
10/24/2001, we've managed to take some time this morning and check out
NuTech Entertainment's box set release of
a surprisingly good hentai. In fact, we even have a more detailed
up and ready for this title.
Sorta new licensed
(09:03 AM EST): In what many are
calling a very surprising yet great move, Bandai Entertainment has
announced their upcoming release of Yoroiden Samurai Troopers, better
known to US fans as Ronin Warriors which aired on syndication and Cartoon
Network. Even better? The DVD's, retailing for 24.95$ starting in April,
will be bilingual and uncut. Check the
press release for more
Tuesday, November 27th, 2001
(10:08 PM EST): Getting in the
final volume before years end (and within 5 months of the first volume
coming out no less), ADV Films next week releases
Vol. #4 to the market, bringing this bizarre yet flashy series to
an end. Hopefully after it comes out someone can explain it to me.
New title announcements
(09:12 PM EST): The
Right Stuf site has updated with some new dates
- Ceres, Celestial Legend 7: Requiem | 75 minutes | 29.99 | 02/26/2002

Miller. Sara snagged a copy of the Martian Successor Nadesico Vol. #6!
Monday, November 26th, 2001
(10:14 PM EST): Due out in just
a few hours, i.e. 11/27/2001, ADV's latest release of
Orphen Vol. #3:
Ruins & Relics brought much enjoyment to our little home theater
tonight. Especially the easily found piece of omake that proves that ADV
can really poke fun at themselves and give (some?) viewers are great
(09:20 PM EST): Following up on
the successful OVA series, Media Blasters has let loose with the first of
four discs that make up the TV series and we've got a review of
User's Club Vol. #4: I Wanna Do More!
(06:10 PM EST): Three more
pieces added to
Gallery 7 today, this time from Pioneer. Take a look at Sherlock
Holmes, the great looking Mini-Goddesses Vol. #1 and the fantastic looking
Soul Taker Vol. #1. Of course, these all look much better in their larger
uncompressed formats, but I have to be space conscious.
Cardcaptor Sakura movie
(05:42 PM EST): While a good
amount of information has come out regarding the two upcoming versions of
the first Cardcaptor Sakura movie, we got a bit more clarification on the
uncut version that I had been looking for. So let's run down the two:
|Cardcaptors The Movie
||Cardcaptor Sakura The Movie
|4:3 Pan & Scan
||16:9 Anamorphic Widescreen
|English 2.0 Soundtrack
||English 2.0 Soundtrack, English 5.1
Soundtrack, Japanese 2.0 Soundtrack, Japanese 5.1 Soundtrack
|Extras: Froggy Mix Music Video, and
||Extras: English / Japanese Trailers and
Commercials, alternate angle footage and more
To make things even more interesting, there is no cuts being made to
the Cardcaptors dub-only movie. Well, beyond the image being cropped and
panned and scanned. The dub on the dub-only disc is the same as the
widescreen movie edition. The footage is exactly the same across the two.
My guess is that this allows those who don't want to touch the Japanese
version can do so by getting what the TV discs are like. But for those who
have wanted an uncut dub, this is where you make out the best. The
widescreen bilingual disc looks to be the clear winner here.
(03:03 PM EST): We haven't had
to cover too many disc delays lately, but two have crept up this
afternoon. According to
Right Stuf, Central Park Media's releases of Battleskipper The Movie
and My My Mai have both been postponed with no new date.
(03:02 PM EST): Cover art
has been updated with new artwork for the forthcoming Bubblegum Crash and
Otaku no Video from AnimEigo.
(09:53 AM EST): Congratulations
go out to our twenty fifth winner in the ADV DVD A Day contest, Mike
Ralph. Mike snagged a copy of the Blue Seed Vol. #4!
(09:49 AM EST): Another of our
stray sheep has returned today, and with thanks to Jason, we now have
added Jubei-Chan, The
Ninja Girl to a section of our
Anime on DVD Recommends
(09:20 AM EST): Also checking in
with us this morning with another new review is Megan Morris, whose gone
through and checked out the September release of
(09:07 AM EST): We've got a few
new region 1 alternate angle reviews ready for your viewing pleasure this
Region 1 (North America)
(08:52 AM EST): Tackling another
title for us today, Roman Martel has sent in his thoughts on the recently
Powerstone Vol. #1 from ADV Films.
Sunday, November 25th, 2001
(08:17 AM EST): Congratulations go out to our twenty fourth
winner in the ADV DVD A Day contest, David Orozco. David snagged a copy of
the Sorcerer Hunters Vol. #3!
Saturday, November 24th, 2001
(06:10 PM EST): Pioneer knocks
another one out of the park this year with the simply gorgeous release of
My Goddess The Movie, due out on 11/27/2001.
(04:08 PM EST): Released way
back on 6/19/2001, we've finally gotten around to writing something of a
digest review of
Saber Marionette J Collection 3.
(08:29 AM EST): Congratulations
go out to our twenty third winner in the ADV DVD A Day contest, Brandon
Martinez. Brandon snagged a copy of the Martian Successor Nadesico Vol.
(08:25 AM EST): According to a
series of emails we received this morning, it appears that MVM in the UK
will be releasing the Ah! My Goddess movie in the UK as well as the
Adventures of the Mini-Goddesses (which continues to bear out the tied
licensing agreement between the two). No dates or any other info though.

Daily Contest Update
(05:37 PM EST): Just a quick
note for those of you who've won so far in our ADV DVD A DAY giveaway,
I've shipped off the prizes for everyone who won up through Thanksgiving
yesterday. We'll ship the remainder when the last 8 or so are done being
selected. So keep an eye on your mailbox for early next week!
(04:11 PM EST): We started to
dip into our hentai pile a bit, and the first one we pulled out was
Darkness from NuTech Entertainment.
(03:20 PM EST): If you're
enjoying Crest of the Stars, probably one of the closest shows in a
similar military style is
Gundam MS 08th
Vol. #3. This was another excellent volume in one of my favorite
long running series.
(12:18 PM EST): If you thought
the names of the attacks in Dragonball Z were bad, wait till you see them
use "Double Big Tit Bomb!" among many others in the atrociously bad show
Zero, released back on 9/25/2001 from Media Blasters.
(11:17 AM EST): We've got a few
new reviews to work on today, so we'll post them as they're completed.
First up is the 11/13/2001 release from Pioneer that brings us three more
episodes of the very cliched but masterfully executed
Vol. #2: New Fighters.
(10:18 AM EST): One of the more
fun games our forum readers in the English Track have been treated to
lately is a guessing game with ADV reps about whose being cast for what
show. Princess Nine was the last one that took awhile, but had folks
really enjoying the game. This time around, Excel Saga's been put under
the magnifying glass. All of the parts have been isolated except for two,
so I thought it was time to get the list up here for those who don't
browse the forums much, if at all:
- Excel - Jessica Calvello
- Ilapalazzo - Jason Douglas
- Misaki Matsuya - Tiffany Grant
- Great Will of the Macrocosom - Kelly Manison
- Menchi - Hilary Haag
- Hyatt - Monica Rial (*confirmed by both Monica herself!)
- Cosplay Excel - Cynthia Martinez
- Nabeshin - Brett Weaver
- Pedro - Rob Mungle
- Watanabe - Jay Hickman
- Iwata - Mark Laskowski
- Kabapu - Mike Kleinhenz
- Puchuu VA #1- Kira
- Sumiyoshi -- DLW and Avatar are fighting it out ON PAY PER VIEW for
Only two are left (and there are no double-roles beign done here),
- Rikdo -**NOT John Swasey, Matt Greenfield, Andy McAvin, Chris Corey,
John Gremillion, Andrew Klimko, Spike Spencer, Phil Ross
- Puchuu #2 - **NOT Jennifer K. Earhart, Phil Ross, dlw , Tamara Lo,
Marcy Rae, Mike Kleinhenz , Jenni Strader, Emily Carter , Ted Pfister,
So for the naysayer's who think Excel Saga is years and years away,
here's a bit of proof of things getting closer. And for those who enjoy
dubs, a good peek at whose getting played by who.
(09:41 AM EST): Congratulations
go out to our twenty second winner in the ADV DVD A Day contest, Ilya K.
Nash. Ilya snagged a copy of the Robotech Legacy Box Set 4: The

(06:39 PM EST): We just added 15
new pieces of cover art to our latest
(06:17 PM EST): While the
theatrical release is being debated and planned, the DVD is already
underway. The latest Diamond Comics Previews lists it for release in March
with a retail price of 27.95$. According to the retailer
Archonia, it will have only the Japanese language on it with English
Ranma box 2?
(06:14 PM EST): Some potential
good news here. Forum reader Mootar posted some info he found in Viz's
Holiday Shop By Mail catalog. The Anything Goes Martial Arts DVD box set
is due out in March. The multi-disc set will run for 572 minutes and
retail for $119.98.
(03:20 PM EST): According to the
Right Stuf, they've been informed via
tokyopop indeed does the
license for the Initial D anime.
(01:23 PM EST): Although I'm
listing it as a rumor, it's probably as official as we're going to get for
the moment. Mariela dug up some new information today:
Latest issue of TOKYOPOP's Smile magazine today has an ad for Marmalade
Boy - the manga starts next month. Along with "Available monthly starting
December 2001 as a limited edition comic book series" when you look at the
bottom of the ad you see this :
"Look for the Marmalade Boy anime on VHS & DVD coming soon from
Make of that what you will - but they were giving stores St. Tail
posters that worked in pretty much the same way long before they
officially announced that anime.
The Marmalade Boy TV series aired in 1994 and 1995, with a total run of
Tuesday, November 20th, 2001
(07:54 PM EST): A recent press
release from ADV Films (which I don't think we got/posted) touted some of
the information for the upcoming release of Steel Angel Kurumi. One of the
lines in the release was "The 24-episode saga will be delivered on 6
DVD's." With Kurumi being a series of half-episode episodes (i.e. less
than 15 minutes each), this caused quite a bit of confusion. David
Williams of ADV clarified this today, stating, "That was a mistake on the
press release. It's still as previously announced with 6 eps each on 4
New title announcement
(07:53 PM EST): Looks like this
one slipped by my last week, as posted by Janice Williams from ADV Films:
Robotech Flight 6 has been given a street date of February 5, 2002.
Disc 11 - New Generation: Next Wave - $14.98 SRP, seven episodes,
Disc 12 - New Generation: Counter Strike - $14.98 SRP, six episodes,
Box 6 - $44.98, contains discs 11 & 12, plus extras disc with: original
Mospeada pilot; Toy Fair presentation for Robotech toy line; Promotional
videos for Robotech toy line; skads of Production sketches; comic covers
for the New Generation segment; and international clips
Brief site note
(07:51 PM EST): Due to the
holiday this week, as well as a excessively busy weekend this past
weekend, we're going to be fairly light on reviews for most of this week.
We're keeping up on what little DVD news slips out during a holiday week,
but it's generally pretty quiet. Next week is my first full week off from
my day job in just about a year, so expect us to catch up on some titles,
especially on the hentai side of things.
(07:51 PM EST): Congratulations
go out to our nineteenth winner in the ADV DVD A Day contest, John Playtis.
John snagged a copy of the Martian Successor Nadesico Vol. #6!

(10:04 PM EST): Congratulations go out to our eighteenth winner
in the ADV DVD A Day contest, Thomas Hester. Thomas snagged a copy of the
Sorcerer Hunters Vol. #4!
(09:59 PM EST): News out of this
past weekends Akacon has been, well, non-existent as far as most of us can
tell, but thanks to some good contacts, Mariela has updated her
"ADV announced stuff at the con I can get no news from. Two
ex-Streamline titles have found a new home, Crying Freeman and Doomed
Megalopolis, and Medabots finds its home video home, but it will most
likely be another straight from TV release, dub-only. :P
In other news, the Bebop movie may be acquired, and not by Bandai, which
IMO is not a good thing. Waiting for more official word."
The Bebop footnote shouldn't surprise many people, as Columbia/Tri-Star
was involved in the Japanese distribution of the movie and with their
upcoming release of Metropolis, they've stated on several occasions their
plans to try out more anime. After all, it's relatively cheap to
license/distribute movies like this for a company like CTS, as the returns
generally break even or even a million or two make a profit. The risk
level is generally much lower, especially if they play them out in a
similar release strategy to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Sunday, November 18th, 2001
(09:09 AM EST): I've pretty much
taken the weekend off to play all things Xbox, but Megan's sent in one of
her latest reviews, this time covering the recent release of
Moon S TV Vol. #5.
(09:00 AM EST): Congratulations
go out to our seventeenth winner in the ADV DVD A Day contest, Ashley
Johannessen. Ashley snagged a copy of the Those Who Hunt Elves Vol. #1!
Saturday, November 17th, 2001
(08:07 PM EST): For those that prefer to order directly,
especially considering how poorly distributed their discs are to
retailers, AnimEigo is now taking
orders for Bubblegum Crash (shipping near 12/1), Vampire Princess Miyu
Vol. #2 (shipping near 12/17) and my personal favorite, Otaku No Video
(shipping near 12/30). They're also apparently offering free UPS ground
shipping for orders, or at least for the three above that I just ordered
(07:46 AM EST): Congratulations
go out to our sixteenth winner in the ADV DVD A Day contest, Tom Gaj. Tom
snagged a copy of the Sorcerer Hunters Vol. #3!
Friday, November 16th, 2001
(07:29 PM EST): Due out on
01/08/2002, Central Park Media has managed to score themselves what'll
likely be the first big hit of next year. The dark and edgy and fairly
well disturbing show known as
Now and Then,
Here and There Vol. #1 is something that we got an early look at
this week and have put some of our thoughts down on it. Fans of director
Akitaroh Daichi will definitely want to check this out.
Story of the Racks
(12:27 PM EST): For those who've
been waiting and wondering, the work finished this week and the anime
discs are loaded up in our new library shelving. Come,
check out our sickness.
(09:49 AM EST): The folks over
at Barnes & Noble are beefing
up their anime store, and I'm gauging interest from readers here as to
whether they'd use the links to there or not. If you would, let us know in
our retail forum.
(09:46 AM EST): We're now all
caught up on our region 1 alternate angle reviews, with this mornings

(10:18 PM EST): Things are moving along nicely, with lots of
new information cropping up in this weeks edition of
lovingly crafted and cared for by Sean Broestl.
(10:01 PM EST): Adding another
13 episode series onto the completed pile, we've finished our thoughts on
Media Blasters packed release of
Zenki, the first
of four collections to be released by them.
(08:27 PM EST): We've been quiet
on new reviews this week, but we've been doing a lot of watching. In fact,
since Monday evening, we've watched 31 episodes of anime, so we've got new
stuff coming up. The first is a review of the 13 episode OVA series
Hakkenden: Legend of
the Dog Warriors from Pioneer.
(08:24 PM EST): Those looking to
score some sweet priced anime will want to check out the weekly specials
Right Stuf. I Dream of Mimi's down to 12.49$ from a regular of 30$,
Saint Tail #1 for 18$ from a regular of 30$ and probably most anticipated
from our regular retail hunters, the 4th box set of Votoms for 49.99
instead of 99.99$.

(05:00 PM EST): As we close in on our fourth year of being

first year. The folks over at Anime Love are now celebrating their first,

(05:45 PM EST): Things are
getting clearer with the Synch-Point releases. According to the TRSI site
and other sources, FLCL will be getting a bimonthly release for its three
discs (Jan/Mar/May) with the first disc streeting on 01/15/2002. The TV
series I'm Gonna Be An Angel got a slight bump back from initial hopes,
and the first volume with five episodes will arrive on 01/22/2002.
(05:09 PM EST): Long time reader
and NY area contributor Abood Rabbat has sent in his thoughts on the
various movies screened during the
2001 Big Apple Anime Festival.
(04:59 PM EST): ADV sent out some press releases today, talking
about Princess 9 #2, Plastic Little and Sorcerer on the Rocks. Check out
our combined listing,
complete with cover artwork for each. Just look at that shine on Tita's
(04:36 PM EST): Congratulations
go out to our eleventh winner in the ADV DVD A Day contest, Kaled
Abdulgader. Kaled snagged a copy of the Gasaraki Vol. #7!
Sunday, November 11th, 2001
(10:15 AM EST): It was only this past Thursday night that we
mentioned the limited availability of the separate Cowboy Bebop box that
TRSI is distributing for Bandai Entertainment. Well, those 1000 or so
boxes they were getting have been spoken for and sold out. And from what I
can tell, it looks like almost 700 of them were bought via this site,
according to my weekly affiliate report with TRSI.
Kind of makes you wonder what the rest of the market's interest would
be, with the other thousands and thousands of people who don't read us or
even get online.
Hopefully Bandai will look at this as something to try again in the
future. Hopefully the other studios will look into this as something
that's profitable and worth trying. That's right folks, there's money to
be made in empty cardboard boxes with a pretty picture on it. A thousand
boxes sold in 2 1/2 days for 12.99$ a pop. Impressive.
(09:33 AM EST): Congratulations
go out to our tenth winner in the ADV DVD A Day contest, Brian Suarez.
Brian snagged a copy of the Sorcerer Hunters Vol. #3!
(09:28 AM EST): According to the folks over at
Anime News Service, an
casting call has gone out in Vancouver for folks to try out for G-Gundam.
If ANS's information is true, that'll likely be the next series to be
brought over, which is sure to spark plenty of debate among Gundamphiles.
G-Gundam ran in 1994 for 49 episodes, so I'd hazard a bet that it'd be
released in the same style as the currently running Mobile Suit Gundam or
possibly Gundam Wing.
(09:26 AM EST): Our
Digital Omake pages have
been updated this morning as well, with new tricks for Blue Gender,
Evangelion Vol. #7, the Utena movie and more.
(09:14 AM EST): Let's catch up a
bit, shall we?

hentai level of the morning, we've also finished our review for ADV's
11/06/2001 release of
Nadia Vol. #4:
(08:39 AM EST): Only in my weird
life would I wake up on a Saturday morning and the first thing I do is go
and review hentai. But that means you get to read an early morning review
of Media Blaster's recent release of
Fever Syndrome Complete.
Friday, November 9th, 2001
(10:17 PM EST): Getting one more
review in this evening before calling it a night, we took in the
X movie from Manga
Entertainment last night and have compiled our thoughts on this mixed
(08:35 PM EST): Just when you
thought it was safe to return,
resurfaces to give you another glimpse inside the seedy section of the
(08:17 PM EST): While our racks
were being built today, we took some time to take in Manga Entertainment's
Black Magic M66.
(06:54 PM EST): It's been awhile
since I've written anything in terms of an article, but I hope you'll take
a minute to take a journey with me as I describe the path my life has
taken in the past couple of years, a path some may be familiar with,
others may envy and many more will fear (and many will just not
understand). The Story of the
(05:22 PM EST): Media Blasters
has sent out their latest press release, which we've skimmed and put all
the anime DVD related titles into one
useful page. Believe me, you'll thank us, because otherwise you'd end
up reading about "The Haunting Passion DVD" and the line "Jane Seymour and
Gerald McRaney star in a sensual and mysteriously unique love story."
Truly disturbing, and it's not even part of the Tokyo Shock line.
(05:13 PM EST): For those
looking for deals, check out the new weekly specials
Right Stuf is running. They've got some good
disc prices of upwards to 50% off, notably on Inmu, as well as some deals
on Boogiepop Phantom, some CPM titles and others.
(05:10 PM EST): Congratulations
go out to our eighth winner in the ADV DVD A Day contest, Sarah Olson.
Sarah snagged a copy of the Blue Seed Vol. #4!
New title announcement
(05:01 PM EST): ADV has set
forth a new date today, this time for the Powerstone series. Powerstone
Vol. #3 has been assigned a street date of 2/26/2002 with 5 English-only
episodes for $19.98.
(06:59 AM EST): Seeking to
frustrate me and a few others, Pioneer has slipped yet another tidbit into
a tentative section of their site. "Pioneer Entertainment is a member of
Hellsing production committee and also the DVD distributor of this project
in North America. Visit www.hellsing.net
Guys guys guys! More fanfare! With so much stuff coming out on the
market these days, the drum's got to start being beaten earlier. Hopefully
we'll hear more about this release prior to the discs actually shipping.
Thursday, November 8th, 2001
(11:18 PM EST): Congratulations go out to our seventh winner in
the ADV DVD A Day contest, John Athanson. John snagged a copy of the
Martian Successor Nadesico Vol. #6!
Cowboy Bebop box
(11:08 PM EST): With the recent
demise of Animevillage.com, many were wondering exactly how Bandai
intended to follow through on their promise to get separate boxes (without
DVD's or the CD) to the fans who bought the series as it was released.
Well, look no further than this link right here! Bandai has set up
Right Stuf as the distributor for this special limited box, which has been
made in Japan and shipped here for US customers. The boxes have a hinged
lid at the top and sport a sleek coated picture of our favorite crew of
bounty hunters on the front (not to mention a great spot of Ein on the
back). We've heard that there is a limited number of these made, and this
is apparently the only place to get it. Stock is going to move fast.
While there's probably going to be more demand than there is supply of
these things, I hope other companies (notably Pioneer) will take notice
that there IS a demand. I was among the early faithful who bought Lain
with each release, and would really like a nice box for it. Same for those
who bought Tenchi and Trigun. In this day and age of getting every penny
possible to turn a profit, it's strange than an entire market is being
left practically untapped.
Wednesday, November 7th, 2001
(09:40 PM EST): Congratulations go out to our sixth winner in
the ADV DVD A Day contest, Andres' Roques. Andre snagged a copy of the
Sorcerer Hunters Vol. #4!
New title announcement
(05:39 PM EST): Amazon recently
sent out information about AnimEigo's Vampire Princess Miyu OVA Vol. #2
being canceled, which has prompted folks at AnimEigo to talk about it as
well as other titles in the queue:
"The new street date for Miyu 2 is 12/17/2001, and Amazon ought to be
re-listing it soon.
We are also pleased to announce street dates of 12/01/2001 for the
Bubblegum Crash DVD, 12/31/2001 for the Otaku No Video DVD, and 01/30/2002
for Urusei Yatsura TV Volume 5."
New title announcement
(05:39 PM EST): ADV Films is at
it again, giving us another sweet street date today. Gasaraki Vol. # 8 has
been assigned a street date of 01/29/2002. This is the final volume of the
series, 3 episodes, MSRP of $29.98.
New title announcement
(01:46 PM EST): ADV Films has
given the nod to another release title today, this time a 2 disc set that
will contain all twelve episodes of the series. Due on 04/09/2002, AD
Police: To Protect & Serve will street for 34.98$.
(07:17 AM EST): Changing things
a bit on their end, the previously announced Pretty Sammy Collection has
been bumped to a TBA listing, so no idea when we'll see that. On the plus
side however, their site is now listing the Cardcaptor Sakura movie as
being due out in Spring 2002.

(07:32 PM EST): Congratulations go out to our fifth winner in
the ADV DVD A Day contest, Anton Cao. Anton snagged a copy of the
Princess Nine Vol. #1!
Love Hina Showing
(04:52 PM EST): After our
announcement yesterday afternoon regarding our Boston area December
showing of the Love Hina DVD from Bandai Entertainment (a 3 month advance
preview!), we "sold out" of seats within the first eight hours or so! This
bodes quite well for us doing this again in 2002, so keep your eyes peeled
after this one to see what we might come up with (hopefully something else
with an early showing).
(04:40 PM EST): According to an
unsourced post on our forum from a reliable member of the site, NuTech
Entertainment has picked up some high profile titles. I've also confirmed
directly with NuTech that they do indeed have the following titles. WORDS
WORTH VOLS. 1-5, E-L VOLS. 1-2 and IMMA SIEDEN VOLS. 1-4 have been
acquired and they indicate a January release. Those knowing NuTech's
release dates will chuckle of course. The big title in there for a lot of
folsk is Words Worth, a rather popular hentai series that's fantasy based
and has a sizeable US fanbase already. Reportedly the discs will cost

words from our recently brought on board social coordinator:

(05:37 PM EST): Our ninth and
final new review of this weekend is the latest entry in Pioneer's big long
running series. We were pleased to see our copy of

title into the pile of discs that Macrovision has managed to sink its
stinking fangs into. Urban Vision's release this week of

Discovered in 2019, THCP is the latest and greatest discovery in the world of cannabinoids. It’s also the strongest one yet, known to be over 10x more potent than Delta 9 THC. The rule of thumb is: the more carbon atoms, the stronger the cannabinoid interacts with your endocannabinoid system, and the more potent the effects. THC has a five-carbon atom chain, while THCP has seven carbon atoms. The only seven carbon cannabinoid!
The effects are very intense, but also very therapeutic. Our users report using it as a strong sleep aid, incredible relaxation, and the ultimate go to for pain relief. Ditch that nightly glass of wine and swap it for this THCP blend. You won’t be disappointed!
Strongest Gummie I've had.
I haven't been Gummiing long but these are the strongest for me. I usually nibble on 1 after dinner eating a quarter of the gummie per nibble. Usually have another 1/2 at bed. Occasionally, take a hole one at bedtime and wake up in the morning with a buzz.
loved these STRAWNANA Gummies! nice easy buzz that delivers!
As usual top notch product!
Very good experience that helps with my anxiety.
I need 2 to get a buzz

EEOC Claim: Everything You Need to Know
Filing a EEOC claim the first steps you should take when you feel you are dealing with workplace harassment or discrimination.4 min read

4. Where to File

9. What to Do If You Face Retaliation
10. Filing a Title VII Lawsuit
What Is an EEOC Claim?
An EEOC claim the first step you should take when you feel you are dealing with workplace harassment or discrimination. In the event that the employer fails to take measures to sanction the employee you can file a charge of discrimination or harassment with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or a similar state agency.
The EEOC does not perform random audits of the workplace in search of discrimination. Instead, it relies on workers to file complaints on their own. Due to the fact the EEOC requires employees to bring charges forward, federal anti-discrimination laws prohibit employers from taking retaliatory measures against an employee for doing so.
After the EEOC receives your complaint, it will get in touch with you and your employer within 10 days after your filing and follow up with an investigation. An investigation can take a couple months to finish depending on the details and complexity of the charge.
Before Filing Charges
The agency will not process a discrimination charge online. Instead, you have to file by mail or in person. However, the EEOC has an online assessment tool that helps you figure out if filing charges is the best course of action. If so, you can complete an online intake questionnaire and mail it or deliver it in person to your local EEOC office.
Prepare to supply your personal and contact information as well as that of your employer when you fill out the form. You will also need to provide a brief account of the alleged discriminatory act, the date or dates, and if you are a federal employee or applicant.
Where to File
Complaints can be filed at a local EEOC office. These offices, even though they are not federal, have been designated as representatives of the EEOC along with state and regional offices of the EEOC.
When to File
If you live in a state that has its own equal employment opportunity (EEO) laws, you have 300 days to file after the unwanted act has occurred. In the event the state does not have EEO laws, you have 180 days to file. Even if your state has EEO laws, it's best to assume that you only have 180 days to file and that you should file as soon as possible.
It's best to file once there is a suspicion of discriminatory behavior in the workplace, but it's not always possible to call out a solitary act as discrimination. If you discern a pattern of discrimination or harassment that goes back for more than 180 days, it's safest to assume that the EEOC time limit began the moment you recognized you were being discriminated against.
Organizing Your Evidence
It's important to organize your evidence before reporting the incidents to the EEOC. You can do this by keeping a log of details that include:
- Who was involved
- Nature of the actions
Keep a file of any documentation provided by your employer, such as a written performance review that doesn't match what you experienced or unwarranted disciplinary notices.
Resist the temptation to put in a personal bias or emotion when keeping a log. Keeping your emotions out of the complaint helps the EEOC investigator take you more seriously and increases the chances of your complaint getting full attention and consideration.
How the EEOC Handles Complaints
An EEOC staff lawyer or investigator reviews your complaint and evaluates whether your or not the actions of your employer appear to violate Title VII. The EEOC has 180 days to act on your complaint which means it may be some time before you hear back. The investigator will inform you at that point if the incident warrants a complaint.
In the event the investigator feels that you should pursue your case with the help of the EEOC, they will fill out an EEOC Charge of Discrimination form that describes the incident, then send it to you for review and signature.
After receiving your complaint and acting upon it, the investigator is supposed to interview the employer named in the complaint and try to mediate a settlement between you and the employer. If the employer refuses to settle, or if the activity is blatant, the investigator can step the case up to a formal investigation. An investigation consists of subpoenaing company records, which prohibits the company from destroying documents and compelling employees to make statements about the activity.
What Is Retaliation?
An employer cannot retaliate against an employee for complaining about discrimination or harassment regardless if it's through internal processes or filing/complying with the EEOC.
Retaliation can come in the form of:
- Reduction in pay
- Changes in job or shift assignment
An employer engaging in any of these retaliatory actions is considered to be deterring a reasonable employee from making a complaint.
What to Do If You Face Retaliation
In the event your employer has taken action against you because you filed a complaint under anti-discrimination laws, you can take action. If you've made an internal company complaint, talk to the person who took your complaint or go to the HR department and let them know you're being punished for complaining. If you've filed with a government agency, let the investigator know about the retaliation and ask them to file a separate charge of retaliation against the employer.
Keep a log of the retaliation just the same as keeping track of the original unwanted behavior. It's easier to make a case that there was retaliatory action against you. The EEOC is unlikely to file a lawsuit on your behalf as it's limited to a budget of $5000 per lawsuit unless the case will generate publicity or controversy.
Filing a Title VII Lawsuit
Filing a complaint with the EEOC is a slow process. If the agency does not act on your complaint within 180 days, you can request a Notice of Right to Sue which authorizes you to file a lawsuit in federal court against your employer. Once you receive the letter, you have 90 days to file.

An experienced sheep showman, 18-year-old Kaleb Vondenhuevel, of Wapakoneta, hasnâ€™t just been around sheep during his 10 years of 4-H and he doesnâ€™t plan to quit raising them once he graduates next year.
â€śIâ€™ve been around sheep my entire life,â€ť said Kaleb, who grew up on a farm where they were raised and hopes to continue raising them long after heâ€™s done showing them at the Auglaize County Fair.
On Tuesday, prior to the show, Kaleb washed his sheep in the morning, wetted them down and then sheered them. With those grooming tasks complete, Kaleb said he let the sheep rest until about five minutes before they showed, when he planned on getting them up.
In total, Kaleb showed nine sheep Tuesday at the fair, one market lamb and eight in breeding classes.
With his breeding sheep, Kaleb said the judge will most likely take into consideration character and structure of the animal, also important, particularly with the market lambs, are how they walk, muscle and meat structure. Close attention is paid to the loin and rump.
â€śYou ainâ€™t out to get rich with sheep,â€ť Kaleb said, but with one year left to show at the Auglaize County Fair, heâ€™s planning on enjoying the experience. â€śItâ€™s all about the people you meet. You go out and show as hard as you can and then you have fun.â€ť
For Braden Greve, a 10-year-old from Wapakoneta in his second year of showing sheep at the Auglaize County Fair, itâ€™s definitely hard work, but the more time spent working with the animals, the easier it is.
â€śI spend a lot of time with them,â€ť he said after the beginning showmanship competition.
In that, Braden said the most important thing is standing the sheepâ€™s feet up so they are even.
He said there really isnâ€™t much of a difference between that competition and the market show.
â€śThe judge is tough but it helps you learn,â€ť Braden said.
The Schaub cousins, Lauren, 9, and Audra, 10, never expected to walk away with first- and second-place finishes, respectively, in the class, but working together for between an hour to two hours each day paid off.
They started every morning at 7:30 and were back to the barn again each night.
â€śWe walk, water and feed them, and work with them,â€ť Audra said. â€śWe practice setting them up.â€ť
Lauren said they just kept working the sheep.
â€śI walked him extra hard, looked at the judge and smiled,â€ť said first-year showman Lauren, who took first place in her divisionâ€™s showmanship.
Lauren said bringing sheep to the Auglaize County Fair was something she decided to do after Audra did it last year.
â€śItâ€™s fun to show, â€ś said Audra. â€śI think Iâ€™ll keep doing it.â€ť
Zoe Moorman, 12, of Wapakoneta, has shown sheep for three years.
She said in doing so itâ€™s important to keep the sheep between herself and the judge and to maintain good eye contact.
â€śYou have to try your hardest,â€ť Zoe said. â€śMy great grandpa raises sheep and I always wanted to show them.â€ť
Asked what she likes about sheep, Zoe replied â€” everything.
â€śIâ€™ve been around them so long,â€ť Zoe said. â€śFirst you start out working them every day and itâ€™s hard. It gets easier.â€ť
She said the sheep also tend to do better if the showman is relaxed.
With six sheep at the Auglaize County Fair this year, Zoe said sheâ€™s entered them in classes for market and breeding, but showmanship is her favorite.
â€śThey are judging me, not my lamb.â€ť

Boris Johnson will urge social media firms to take tougher action over racism after the abuse of England football players, which he described as being “from the dark spaces of the internet”.
The Prime Minister was preparing to hold talks about online abuse with companies including Facebook, Twitter and Instagram in No 10 on Tuesday, in the wake of the attacks after the team’s loss in the Euro 2020 final.
Downing Street said he will “reiterate the urgent need for action” in the meeting but also had to issue a defence of Mr Johnson and Priti Patel over their earlier responses.
England footballer Tyrone Mings accused the Home Secretary of having managed to “stoke the fire” in the tournament by criticising the team for taking the knee against racism as “gesture politics”.
No 10 said Mr Johnson opened a meeting of his Cabinet on Tuesday by condemning the racist attacks players were targeted with after Sunday’s match.
“He said the abuse was utterly disgraceful and had emerged from the dark spaces of the internet,” the Prime Minister’s official spokesman said.
“He said he would use today’s meeting with social media firms to reiterate the urgent need for action ahead of tougher laws coming into force through the Online Harms Bill.”
The spokesman added that social media companies should “do everything they can to identify these people”, including handing over details of those who posted racist content.
No 10 said the meeting had been scheduled ahead of the Euro 2020 attacks and also would host representatives from TikTok, Snapchat, Microsoft and Amazon Kids UK.
The abuse has not been confined to the internet, with a mural in south Manchester of Marcus Rashford having been defaced in what police are treating as a racist incident.
But Rashford, Jadon Sancho and Bukayo Saka were all subjected to attacks on social media after they were unable to score in the penalty shootout at Wembley.
The comments of Government figures have also been called into question, with Mings criticising the Home Secretary after she described racist abuse as “vile” on Twitter.
“You don’t get to stoke the fire at the beginning of the tournament by labelling our anti-racism message as ‘Gesture Politics’ & then pretend to be disgusted when the very thing we’re campaigning against, happens,” the defender responded.
Last month, Ms Patel declined to condemn fans who booed players as they took the knee in protest against racial injustice at the beginning of matches.
“I just don’t support people participating in that type of gesture, gesture politics, to a certain extent, as well,” she told GB News.
And on whether England fans were right to boo the national team, she said: “That’s a choice for them, quite frankly.”
Ms Patel declined to comment on Mings’ tweet but Conservative former defence minister Johnny Mercer said the footballer was “completely right”.
Tory MP and former minister Steve Baker has also said that Conservatives need to change their attitudes towards people taking the knee, according to the Guardian.
The newspaper reported that he had written in a message to MPs on the Conservatives Against Racism, For Equality group: “Much as we can’t be associated with calls to defund the police, we urgently need to challenge our own attitude to people taking a knee.”
Former Tory Party chairwoman Baroness Warsi also criticised Ms Patel, suggesting the Home Secretary and the Government were guilty of “dog whistle” politics.
Labour also accused the Prime Minister of a failure of leadership over a delay in criticising the booing last month, with leader Sir Keir Starmer saying his “words today ring hollow”.
No 10 issued a defence of Mr Johnson and Ms Patel, saying the Prime Minister had urged the nation to support the team and not boo before England’s first game.
“The Home Secretary is working every day to clamp down on hate crime, racism and violence,” the Prime Minister’s official spokesman added.
Shadow home secretary Nick Thomas-Symonds has been granted an urgent question to Ms Patel to ask for a Commons statement about online racist abuse on Wednesday. A junior minister could be sent in her place.
It comes as Uefa opened a disciplinary investigation into the chaotic scenes at the Euro 2020 final, which saw individuals without tickets breach security at Wembley.
Football Association (FA) chief executive Mark Bullingham said on Monday that a full review would take place into what had happened, accusing “drunken yobs” of trying to force their way into the stadium without tickets.
Uefa has also charged the FA over a pitch invasion during the match, and over the throwing of a firework, the throwing of other objects and disturbing the Italian national anthem.
The FA was fined last Saturday after a laser pointer was shone in the face of Denmark goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel as he prepared to face a penalty from England’s Harry Kane during last Wednesday’s semi-final at Wembley.

Caravan Stories due out on Switch next week in Japan
Posted on March 12, 2021 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop
Aiming has set a release date for Caravan Stories, its free-to-play fantasy RPG. At least in Japan, the title is lined up for March 18.
Today’s announcement also provides a noteworthy detail on how Caravan Stories is being delivered to Switch. Much like Control and Hitman 3, it uses the cloud – meaning you won’t be downloading the game directly to your system.
Here’s an overview of Caravan Stories, along with a trailer:
Enter the vast open world of Iyarr, where adventure waits around every corner. Choose from one of six playable races, each with their own storyline. Build a fellowship by taming monsters and befriending non-player characters. Nearly 300 allies can be recruited for player-versus-enemy and player-versus-player.
Recruitment in Caravan Stories fosters extraordinarily strategic combat and character development, with skillsets and stats that change the way characters fight. Stand against the tides of evil in parties of up to 6 creatures and allies. Plumb the depths of formidable dungeons and team up with players to conquer gripping open-world raids.
Iyarr is as unpredictable as it is beautiful. As the sun falls and shadows turn to moonlit darkness, new monsters appear to threaten the party. When day breaks, other creatures join the fray, demanding new approaches and strategies. The time flow system authors a dynamic world where surprising stories can unfurl at any moment.
Caravan, the strange flying vehicle, serves as a progression hub. Players can customize their caravan’s look, unlock weapon and armor crafting, create resource generators like gold and crystal pumps, and provide backup in battle with cannons and other armaments.
Keep in mind that Caravan Stories does have an English version on other platforms, but the game hasn’t been announced for western release on Switch. We’ll let you know if anything changes on that front.
