Politics and -- let's focus on the political system in particular question here, which is the system of democracy. Democracy, as a type of politics, is a technology for the control and deployment of power. You can deploy power in a wide range of ways. The famous ones -- despotism is a good one; anarchy is a way to not deploy the power in any organized way, to do it in a radically diffused fashion; and democracy is a set of technologies, which have the effect of, in principle, diffusing the power source to a large number of people and then re-concentrating it in a smaller group of people who govern, and who themselves are, in principle, authorized to govern by virtue of what the broader public has done. Now, consider religion -- in this case Islam, which is the religion that, in some direct sense, can be said to be precipitating what we're about to enter. Let me say parenthetically why I think that's the case, because I think it's a potentially controversial statement. I would put it in the following equation: no 9/11, no war. At the beginning of the Bush administration, when President Bush, now President Bush, was running for president, he made it very clear that he was not interested in intervening broadly in the world. In fact, the trend was for disengagement with the rest of the world. That's why we heard about the backing away from the Kyoto protocol, for example. After 9/11, the tables were turned. And the president decided, with his advisors, to undertake some kind of an active intervention in the world around us. That began with Afghanistan, and when Afghanistan went extremely smoothly and quickly, a decision was made through the technology of democracy -- again, notice, not a perfect technology -- but through the technology of democracy that this administration was going to push in the direction of another war -- this time, a war in Iraq. Now, the reason I begin by saying "no 9/11, no war" as interpreted by a very, very small, extremely radical group of people, was a precipitating cause of the 9/11 attacks -- the precipitating cause of the 9/11 attacks -- and as a consequence, at one degree of remove, the precipitating cause of the coming war that we're about to be engaged in. And I would add that bin Laden and his followers are consciously devoted to the goal of creating a conflict between democracy, or at least capitalist democracy, on the one hand, and the world of Islam as they see and define it. Now, how is Islam a technology in this conceptual apparatus? Well, it's a technology for, first, salvation in its most basic sense.</s>

First I decided to ask about Count Tarkashire who we managed to capture. “Reminds me, what happened to that s̲h̲i̲t̲h̲e̲a̲d̲ noble?” “Well...” Maxwell started unusually hesitantly. And no wonder, as it turned out that someone had assassinated him on the same night of the capture. “He was supposed to be under perfect security. I hadn’t put up any magical surveillance network there, but the guards were strictly watching over him.” “Then, how did he get killed? Or when exactly? And what about the culprit?” “At present, the most suspicious of all would be... You.” “How come!?” “Setting aside the objective, the first one to pop my mind when I heard about someone that could slip through the defenses was you.” “I had no motive, though. Besides, during that time I was in the bath with Finia.” “Oh? Looks like you are getting along as always. So, how did it feel to the touch?” “Don’t ask that!!!” That was a blunder on my part. No, well, he was already aware that I was getting into the bath together with Cortina and Finia. Finia’s weren’t that big but they were quite sof-... No, nevermind. Returning to the topic, since this would derail from it too much. “I was the one that caught him, in the first place. If I wanted to kill him, I’d have done it then and there.” “Indeed. Hence we aren’t aware of the culprit’s objective.” I gave a brief comment about his unusual blunder and went to rummage through his office. It was the usual thing so he didn’t try to stop me. After doing my search I properly tidied after myself, so there would be no need to clean up. Rather, it would end up being more put in order after I was done, given how crude he was at dealing with his things. I discovered rare biscuits behind the thick encyclopedia on the bookshelf. They were products from a famous shop, full of fragrance, baked after mixing sesame into the dough. This old man had a nature to hide food here, like a squirrel preparing for winter. He said he gained this habit of stocking up tasty things back when he was still royalty and could only eat poison-tested food. He said that without looking me in the eye, so I had some suspicions about how honest he was being. “You have some nerve to say that after laying waste to this place. Good grief...” I placed the lunchbox I brought with me on his desk and these biscuits next to them as a dessert. After pouring me some tea, Maxwell continued. “I cannot deny that the monitoring eyes were a bit lax during the shift switch. I was busy attending to Elliot and Priscilla, and it would be a little unreasonable to evaluate the prison guards with the same criteria as in our time.” Since the security system underwent sudden changes, it was actually natural for there to appear gaps in defenses. Still, there were enough of them mobilized to make up for those gaps, yet someone managed to slip through them. I couldn’t blame Maxwell that I was the first one to pop up in his mind after thinking about the possible candidates.</s>

What do I get there?" We get a visual pattern of what these nine-year-olds called acceleration. So how do the children do science? Teacher: [Choose] objects that you think will fall to the Earth at the same time. Student 1: Ooh, this is nice. Teacher: Do not pay any attention to what anybody else is doing. Who's got the apple? Student 2: What did you get? What did you get? Student 3: 0.99 seconds. Teacher: So put "sponge ball" ... Student 4l: [I decided to] do the shot put and the sponge ball because they're two totally different weights, and if you drop them at the same time, maybe they'll drop at the same speed. Teacher: Drop. Class: Whoa! AK: So obviously, Aristotle never asked a child about this particular point because, of course, he didn't bother doing the experiment, and neither did St. Thomas Aquinas. And it was not until Galileo actually did it that an adult thought like a child, only 400 years ago. We get one child like that about every classroom of 30 kids who will actually cut straight to the chase. Now, what if we want to look at this more closely? We can take a movie of what's going on, but even if we single stepped this movie, it's tricky to see what's going on. And so what we can do is we can lay out the frames side by side or stack them up. So when the children see this, they say, "Ah! Acceleration," remembering back four months when they did their cars sideways, and they start measuring to find out what kind of acceleration it is. So what I'm doing is measuring from the bottom of one image to the bottom of the next image, about a fifth of a second later, like that. And they're getting faster and faster each time, and if I stack these guys up, then we see the differences; the increase in the speed is constant. And they say, "Oh, yeah. Constant acceleration. We've done that already." And how shall we look and verify that we actually have it? So you can't tell much from just making the ball drop there, but if we drop the ball and run the movie at the same time, we can see that we have come up with an accurate physical model. Galileo, by the way, did this very cleverly by running a ball backwards down the strings of his lute. I pulled out those apples to remind myself to tell you that this is actually probably a Newton and the apple type story, but it's a great story. And I thought I would do just one thing on the $100 laptop here just to prove that this stuff works here. So once you have gravity, here's this -- increase the speed by something, increase the ship's speed. If I start the little game here that the kids have done, it'll crash the space ship. But if I oppose gravity, here we go ... Oops! One more.</s>

This is vampire mist.’ ‘Well, considering the situation, of course, it is mist prepared by the vampires.’ ‘That’s not what I mean. The mist itself is a vampire.’ ‘Well, they turn into mist or bats when running away. Is it that kind of mist?’ ‘Yes, it is. To be more precise, There are differences in the magic energy composition, but it can be seen as mostly the same.’ ‘What! Should we really be breathing in such a thing then? What if they start controlling us?’ ‘Well, it is probably fine. But I’m not completely sure.’ Mist was good for hiding information, as well as magic obstruction. But having the ability to control people on top of that should be much too difficult. ‘That’s a relief!’ ‘I don’t think we should be relieved. I’d rather breathe in powdered wolf dung into my lungs than this.’ “Gruff?” At the sudden mention of wolves, Grulf, who was following me closely, barked. Grulf was a spirit beast wolf. He had a special ability where he could prevent vampires from transforming by biting them. And so he shouldn’t take any damage no matter how much vampire mist he inhaled. If anything, it was probably the vampires who were taking damage right now. That being said, there was too much mist, and so the damage inflicted by Grulf’s fangs would be close to nothing. We continued to run to the back of the palace, where Eric’s family should be. In the meantime, Eric and Goran were using their communication bracelets to try and contact different locations, but most of the time, they could not connect. Even Lord Gerberga’s godly cry could not rid the entire palace of mist. Still, they were able to contact a few departments, and give out orders. “Shia. Can you hear me?” ‘Zzaa...zzaa...’ I still couldn’t contact Shia and the others. They must be in the mist then. After running for some time, the mist began to surround us again. ‘The mist again. This is bad.’ “C....ock-a-doodle-dooooo!” Lord Gerberga’s godly crowing sounded, and then the mist vanished around us. ‘Thank you, Lord Gerberga.’ ‘Locke. Is this because they keep making more mist?’ ‘No. While I said that it was almost the same, it’s different from a normal transformation. There must be a special way of changing into mist and staying in that state...’ ‘I doubt I’ll understand it, but you explain it to me later.’ ‘Ah, yes. That’s true.’ As Goran said, right now, we should be more concerned with its effect, and not magical techniques, compositions and theories.</s>

"And is a good lad and a loyal," said the housewife, feasting her eyes on the piece of pine wood where it was throned above the chimney with a cuckoo clock in oak and a Calvary in wax. "Yea, I do not gainsay that," said the miller, draining his pewter flagon. "Then, if what you think of were ever to come to pass," said the wife, hesitatingly, "would it matter so much? She will have enough for both, nand one cannot be better than happy." "You are a woman, and therefore a fool," said the miller, harshly, striking his pipe on the table. "The lad is naught but a beggar, and, with these painter's fancies, worse than a beggar. Have a care that they are not together in the future, or I will send the child to the surer keeping of the nuns of the Sacred Heart." The poor mother was terrified, and promised humbly to do his will. Not that she could bring herself altogether to separate the child from her favorite playmate, nor did the miller even desire that extreme of cruelty to a young lad who was guilty of nothing except poverty. But there were many ways in which little Alois was kept away from her chosen companion; and Nello, being a boy proud and quiet and sensitive, was quickly wounded, and ceased to turn his own steps and those of Patrasche, as he had been used to do with every moment of leisure, to the old red mill upon the slope. What his offence was he did not know; he supposed he had in some manner angered Baas Cogez by taking the portrait of Alois in the meadow; and when the child who loved him would run to him and nestle her hand in his, he would smile at her very sadly and say with a tender concern for her before himself, "Nay, Alois, do not anger your father. He thinks that I make you idle, dear, and he is not pleased that you should be with me. He is a good man and loves you well; we will not anger him, Alois." But it was with a sad heart that he said it, and the earth did not look so bright to him as it had used to do when he went out at sunrise under the poplars down the straight roads with Patrasche. The old red mill had been a landmark to him, and he had been used to pause by it, going and coming,</s>

Once we passed a wooden fence, the steep cliff was all that was ahead. If you fell, there would be nothing to break your fall. It would be a straight journey to the bottom. “The “Hundred-Eyed Demon Lizard climbs up these cliffs. And I want you to kill it before it reaches us.” In other words, the quest was about defeating the enemy before it crossed the defense line. Battles with time limits made me nervous. You really felt the pressure as the enemy got closer and closer. Besides, how were you supposed to attack an enemy climbing up a straight wall, when you were up here? Perhaps it would be fine for the rear guard, but it would be nearly impossible for the vanguard. “Don’t worry about a place to stand. We have used a secret art in order to prepare a special cloud for you.” I see. I would be able to fight then. Unlike normal clouds that would drift away, the clouds here could be controlled by shifting your center of gravity. Lean to the right and you would move right. It was the same with the left. And if you wanted to go down, just squat a little. If you want to go up, stand straight with your back stretched. It was possible to control it quite intuitively. “It’s like a Kintoun.” And so I rode the cloud, crossed the wooden fence and moved away from Windcloud Mountain. The enemy had yet to appear. “Good luck!” The elder said before disappearing. It wasn’t a glitch. The area had now become isolated as a ‘battleground.’ This was because this battle was part of the quest. With the bosses that normally existed on the field, like the gorilla or Wincloud Dragon, you had the freedom of fighting or running whenever you wanted. But it was different with quest bosses. Once you accepted it, the event would continue, depending on the results of the fights. It didn’t matter if you won or lost. The ‘battle area’ was surrounded by an invisible wall, so you could not use the cloud to run far away or return to the settlement. You had to win or lose... The fight must continue until you reach either outcome. ...Well, that made things sound more gruesome than it was. It was also to prevent the involvement of people who were not part of the quest. That wouldn’t be a problem if they were party members who were doing the same quest, but if you were a complete outsider, you wouldn’t even be able to watch the fight. As these quests had story elements as well, this was a good way to avoid spoiling players. “Hmm? The sky has suddenly become darker...” The sun descended and the moon rose. However, it was covered by clouds. Instead, countless red paper lanterns appeared around the Windcloud Mountain, illuminating the entire place. As I was now isolated, they were able to make these kinds of dramatic changes. Zu...zuzu...zuzuzu... A sound that I found difficult to describe suddenly came from the darkness below me. Apparently, it had arrived.</s>

Th-there’s no way that’s okay...!” Eris seemed quite worked up compared to her usual demeanor. “Well, we can sort that kind of thing out later, so for now, let’s have a match...!” “W-we can’t...!” “Okay, Glis! Stop troubling Miss Eris!” Rafinha intervened, stopping Inglis from pursuing Eris further. “Well then, what brings you here, Miss Eris?” “A-ah, yes... I am here to convey a request from the royal family.” ““A request from the royal family...?!”” Both Irina and Selena raised their voices in surprise. “Eeehh...?!” “The assassination attempt against His Majesty Charleas, the Venefian army’s raid on the royal capital, and lastly, but not least, the revival of Prisma... In such a short period of time, too many major events have occurred in the kingdom. During this time when domestic policies have not yet been finalized, the political impact of their marriage is too significant. If, for example, an influential noble family who won their hand in marriage insisted that Venefique should be invaded in retaliation, public opinion would heavily lean in that direction. That’s how prestigious they are right now.” Eris explained the situation to Irina and Selena. ““I-I see...”” The two sisters looked at each other and nodded, their expressions tense. “In order to avoid any unnecessary repercussions, as I mentioned earlier, the royal family wishes to forgo the prospect of marriage. They have obtained the consent of Marquis Wilford and Knight Commander Ryuk, as well as notifying the various parties that have sent their marriage proposals. For that reason, no suitors are supposed to come. I apologize for the after-the-fact nature of this.” Eris politely bowed her head towards Irina and Selena. “...Is that so? I understand.” “If that’s the case, there’s nothing we can do then...” “Well, both Rafinha and Glis are like this, after all... Perhaps it is a good thing since we don’t want to inconvenience the suitors, after all.”</s>

The girl was equipped with... light leather armor and a sword with a somewhat long edge. The bees, on the other hand, may be numerous, but judging from the amount of magic power they possessed, she would be overrun by a boar and trampled by a bear, in Lean Forest... let alone being defeated by a rat in a one-on-one fight. “Someone ahhhhhh!?” The benefits of helping are... well, there are many for me. Should I help her? She can’t stand a chance against the thousands of them who are out there. “Hyulololooo!” With that, Pumpkin swooped down into the middle of the swarm of bees and landed on them, smashing a few of them to bits. “What!?” “Hyulahooo!!” He continued to swing his arms, whose rigidity and the acuteness of the thorns on the vines had been reinforced with magic power, and crushed the bees from one side to the other, taking advantage of the opportunity to deliver strikes. Once he gained their attention, the bees... “Hmph!” Even with a little bit of magic power released, the girl was intimidated entirely. All of you bees, what are you going to do now? Your attacks will never work on me. And your prey, the girl, has fainted, but you can see what kind of intentions I have come to you. The bees, perhaps terrified by his magic power, were slowly retreating. Yeah. That’s a wise judgment. As expected of wildlife. Out of respect for their judgment, I’ll give you this. It will also serve as an apology for interrupting without knowing the details of the situation. “Bu? Bububuー” Gathering the magic power in his hand, Pumpkin produced a nectar-like sweet dew and offered it to the bee closest to him. After receiving the dew, the bees flew around him in a constant orbit as if to express their gratitude, then made a resounding buzzing sound and left with their swarm into the nearby forest. They were apparently pleased by that. “Now, l should carry her to a safe place for the time being.” He then carried the unconscious girl on his shoulder, retrieved the bee stingers, and flew away. ————– “Maybe that tree would be fine.” Having flown for a while, Pumpkin found a sakura tree planted along the road, so after landing around it, he lowered the girl down so that she could lean herself against the trunk of the sakura tree. “Hmm.” He took another glance at the girl’s body, who was experiencing trouble sleeping. From a distance, he knew that the girl was wearing light leather armor and a sword, but she also seemed to be wearing a pouch for storing small tools and shoes with a metal plate embedded in it.</s>

For now, let’s finish this in a week.” “Hey. Don’t make such an improper flirtatious noise.” Sheila was at a loss for words when she was reprimanded. She was whining, not letting out a dirty noise. “Anyway, learn the ancient language by getting used to writing it. Today’s lesson is geography. Let’s focus on studying neighboring countries, their climates, and specialties. Do you have any questions so far?” “Why does Jornwerner-sensei like to use obscene words?” It was a serious question, but Jornwerner shook his shoulders in amusement. “Because it’s interesting to see their reactions. People’s disapproving faces, that’s what I like.” “.... I see. I don’t sympathize, but I understand your point.” If the purpose was to play with the other party, it meant that Jornwerner would get what he wanted if they were distracted. In a sense, it was tantamount to giving in to a provocation. If this was a battle, Sheila, who was on the receiving end, must respond resolutely. Sheila decided to let his offhand remarks slide, and then the geography lecture began. Jornwerner unfolded a map centered on the Kingdom of Steitz. “To the west of the Kingdom of Steitz lies the Great Sea. To the north is the country of Norland across the sea. Even though it’s across the sea, it’s not that far away, so trade with our country is prosperous. To the south are Mayberry, Sulifes, and Manawa. Although they are all small countries, these three countries have a peace agreement and should be considered as if they are one country. And to the east is the Faril Divine Kingdom.” With a snap of his finger, he pointed to a country shaped like a honey pot, about two times smaller than the Kingdom of Steitz. “The Faril Divine Kingdom, which is connected to the land, is the oldest country in the world and is said to be the place where the God, Faril, descended to Earth. Most people believe in the Faril religion, which is the state religion. They are very pious people, and many of them work in the service of God. Although there are no notable industries or specialties, the country survives through donations and offerings from all over the continent.” Even deep in the mountains, Sheila had heard of a country called Faril. But she didn’t know what kind of country it was. “Incidentally, the ancient language is more accurately called the ancient divine language. It is a language that is said to have been used by the gods. If you ever go to the Faril Divine Kingdom, you must learn it. It is said to be widely used even in the daily conversation of commoners.” “Hee...” Would a geography teacher have such a captivating explanation? Maybe Jornwerner knew how to teach in a way that was easier to understand and more interesting than a specialized teacher.</s>

The scattered ice and snow created a spiral, what appeared from the center was the appearance of Yue who was wounded from the powerful blast....actually no, it was an unhurt Yue accompanied by the black swirling star which circled around her. Without wasting a second, over 100 aurora’s were once again seen after they confirmed the small enemy was still there. However, the matchless lights of death which would normally eliminate everything, one after another is swallowed into the black star that was tossed around by Yue, or bent and reflected outwards towards the horizon, none of them reached her at all. Yue used gravity magic to further increase her altitude. While being exposed to countless auroras, there is no unrest in her expression at all. “Exceeding Curse” was used to swallow up everything and “Cursed Sky” was used to move the ball of extreme gravity, as if it were a protection satellite orbiting and defending the moon. “The breaths are ineffective, directly swat her down! Go!” To Freed’s change of strategy, the ash dragons didn’t lag behind at all and followed the orders obediently. While releasing the roar of a dragon, murderous intent was shown in its eyes from wanting to tear up the slender girl with its sharp claws and teeth. They intended to attack in waves. Yue’s environment was immediately buried under the gray crowd of ash dragons. Yue who was being confronted didn’t worry at all at the incoming ash dragon’s murderous intent, she calmly closed her eyes. While deeply concentrating. It could be said that it was convenient for the ash dragons that she wasn’t moving, their claws expand, and their strong jaws spread open. At the moment where they thought that it would be impossible to escape death, while facing them, Yue’s eyes opened up! And then, her lovely thin lips voiced out. At that moment, their world shifted in unison (. . .). Like a mirror which had cracked, countless lines are drawn out in the open space, the lines were purposely made adjacent to the starting point. And then, the ash dragons which were coming in succession into the cracked space, after stiffening for an instant, fell to the ground while hearing the sound of their scattering and spraying blood from their cut body parts that came into contact with the broken space. Space magic “Beheading Threads”. Through cracking space and moving it, it’s a no brainer that it’s a magic that will cut apart any object. By Yue’s unseeable cutting magic, more than 30 ash dragons died without being able to do anything but scream out their last moments. Freed’s expression trembles from the activation of space magic, motion speed, and development scale that were far from what he could do. “What great ability. ....By chance, are you one of the people chosen by God!

The most ridiculous thing I ever heard is, I was at a dinner party, and a woman heard that I work in computer security, and she asked me if -- she said her computer had been infected by a virus, and she was very concerned that she might get sick from it, that she could get this virus. And I'm not a doctor, but I reassured her that it was very, very unlikely that this would happen, but if she felt more comfortable, she could be free to use latex gloves when she was on the computer, and there would be no harm whatsoever in that. a virus from your computer, in a serious way. What I'm going to talk to you about today are some hacks, some real world cyberattacks that people in my community, the academic research community, have performed, which I don't think most people know about, and I think they're very interesting and scary, of the academic security community's hacks. None of the work is my work. It's all work that my colleagues have done, and I actually asked them for their slides and incorporated them into this talk. So the first one I'm going to talk about are implanted medical devices. Now medical devices have come a long way technologically. You can see in 1926 the first pacemaker was invented. 1960, the first internal pacemaker was implanted, hopefully a little smaller than that one that you see there, and the technology has continued to move forward. In 2006, we hit an important milestone from the perspective of computer security. And why do I say that? Because that's when implanted devices inside of people started to have networking capabilities. One thing that brings us close to home is we look at Dick Cheney's device, he had a device that pumped blood from an aorta to another part of the heart, and as you can see at the bottom there, it was controlled by a computer controller, and if you ever thought that software liability was very important, get one of these inside of you. Now what a research team did was they got their hands on what's called an ICD. This is a defibrillator, and this is a device that goes into a person to control their heart rhythm, and these have saved many lives. Well, in order to not have to open up the person every time you want to reprogram their device or do some diagnostics on it, they made the thing be able to communicate wirelessly, and what this research team did is they reverse engineered the wireless protocol, and they built the device you see pictured here, with a little antenna, that could talk the protocol to the device, and thus control it.</s>

Mariana was still completely composed, but he felt thoroughly ashamed, an unknown type of sweat drenching his body as he constantly refused to let Mira apologize. There were researchers that came to greet them, while some even handed over prototypes of Magic Wares they hoped would help with the revival of summoners, shortly explaining their use. As far as Creos could see, they had some use but not enough to be able to form a contract with a summon. They could help, but there was not much that could be gained with them. Mira was once again reminded that this place was still the same as before. 「Sorry for the wait. Come on in.」 The tower door opened vigorously and Luminaria made her appearance, inviting them to pass inside the tower. 「Where? I thought we were going to eat somewhere?」「We can’t talk freely in a common restaurant. I heard a lot of things happened during your latest adventure and I want to hear all about it.」「Hmm, so that was it.」 What happened during her latest adventure. In other words, she wanted to hear about the spirits and the devil. The three followed Luminaria inside the Tower of Magic as she led them to the top floor and into her personal room. The furniture in her room was nothing too fancy, though it was well built. There was a really big contrast between Luminaria as a person and her room. Then again, she never was one to be concerned with furniture or interior design. All her furniture had been selected by her aide who knew what kind of person she was after all. Her aide really knew how to do their job even when it came to Luminaria’s personal life. That aide herself, Litaria, was just finishing with placing all the food on the table. Everything they were going to eat that night for dinner had been prepared by her. 「I’ve really been looking forward to this. I can finally hear Danbulf’s stories from you, Mira. This will be fun.」「Ah...yes. Well, later... I guess...」 The last time Mira was in the Tower of Magic, she promised to do that before departing. Remembering that, Mira was unable to come up with anything to say now. As the group of friends ate dinner together, Mira became the main guest talking about her travels. She spoke about Soul Howl’s footprints, the appearance of devils officially said to have been exterminated, the abduction of spirits that was still being kept secret from the public, and other topics that normally would never be mentioned in a public place like a restaurant. While they were all engrossed in her entertaining stories, only Litaria looked at Mira with judging eyes. Figuring it was about time she knew, Mira disclosed her true identity to her, which Mariana and Creos corroborated. Litaria froze with a vacant smile as she attempted to understand and it would take many minutes before she was able to think properly again.</s>

Argonautai was a skill that called upon a heroic spirit. If what was being summoned was not recognised as a heroic spirit, the spell could not be invoked. Pollux had never thought of Ladon as a hero, and this time was no different. Yet she still forcibly summoned it back as a spirit. Saying that what she had done was reckless was an understatement. Nevertheless, she forced her way through that with pure unreasonableness and actualised the summoning. Gradually, the lightning strikes started taking form, and from within it, a dragon with ten heads manifested and roared loudly. Ladon looked around the battlefield by moving its ten heads, but the Heavenly Ouroboros saw this and spoke with ridicule. 「Humph! I was wondering what you were going to call... but it turns out it’s just the boss of those bad imitations of ours. Did you think you’d be able to win against me if you summoned trash like that? Kukuku... You’re showing your true self, Fairy Princess. In the end, you’re nothing but the Wood Ouroboros’s avatar. And you, the Dragon King? You might have a fancy title, but the king of garbage is still nothing but a speck of dirt. Know your place!」 The Heavenly Ouroboros might have mocked what was happening, but Pollux daringly smiled. It was as she had expected... Pollux was able to ascertain the Heavenly Ouroboros’s personality after hearing what it had said after being spun around by Aigokeros. That ouroboros was the type to recognise entities who were equal to himself, but looked down on all others. Therefore, she had predicted that if she placed Ladon in front of him, he would definitely say something along these lines. She was spot on. All ten of Ladon’s heads locked on to the Heavenly Ouroboros and were riled up, angered. “... Are you the ******* who insulted me and my brethren just now?” The outermost right head represented all ten of its heads as it demanded the answer to its question. Unlike when it was last summoned, it had not lost its own sense of self. It had been summoned in its entirety and in the complete state that it had been in before it was defeated by Ruphas. Whilst it might have been a hassle if it had turned hostile, it seemed there was no need to worry about that right now. 「So what if I am, inferior creature? Did it get to your head after you were told the truth? Don’t make me laugh. I’m just calling some trash a piece of trash. What is there to be indignant about, huh? What a joke you are.」 “I’ll kill you!” Ladon allowed himself to be swept away by his bloodlust and charged at the Heavenly Ouroboros. Up until this point, it was as Pollux had been hoping for, but even the Dragon King would not be able to defeat an ouroboros on its own. Having said that, it was still an entity which had the same strength as Leon. It would not be beaten very easily. moved near Orm so that she could speak to him. “Orm, we have to work together.

The twins, who shared the same real body, were able to understand what each other was thinking without having to exchange words.</s>

Or you can feel in your pocket new types of tactile sensations that are richer than the vibration. Or buttons can emerge from the side that allow you to interact where you want them to be. Or you can play games and have actual buttons. And so we were able to do this by embedding 40 small, tiny linear actuators inside the device, and that allow you not only to touch them but also back-drive them as well. But we've also looked at other ways to create more complex shape change. So we've used pneumatic actuation to create a morphing device where you can go from something that looks a lot like a phone ... to a wristband on the go. And so together with Ken Nakagaki at the Media Lab, we created this new high-resolution version that uses an array of servomotors to change from interactive wristband to a touch-input device to a phone. And we're also interested in looking at ways that users can actually deform the interfaces to shape them into the devices that they want to use. So you can make something like a game controller, and then the system will understand what shape it's in and change to that mode. So, where does this point? How do we move forward from here? I think, really, where we are today is in this new age of the Internet of Things, where we have computers everywhere -- they're in our pockets, they're in our walls, they're in almost every device that you'll buy in the next five years. But what if we stopped thinking about devices and think instead about environments? And so how can we have smart furniture or smart rooms or smart environments or cities that can adapt to us physically, and allow us to do new ways of collaborating with people and doing new types of tasks? So for the Milan Design Week, we created TRANSFORM, which is an interactive table-scale version of these shape displays, which can move physical objects on the surface; for example, reminding you to take your keys. But it can also transform to fit different ways of interacting. So if you want to work, then it can change to sort of set up your work system. And so as you bring a device over, it creates all the affordances you need and brings other objects to help you accomplish those goals. So, in conclusion, I really think that we need to think about a new, fundamentally different way of interacting with computers. We need computers that can physically adapt to us and adapt to the ways that we want to use them and really harness the rich dexterity that we have of our hands, and our ability to think spatially about information by making it physical.</s>

Then again --"BEFORE SHE HAD THIS FIT--" you never had fits, my dear, I think?' he said to the Queen. `Never!' said the Queen furiously, throwing an inkstand at the Lizard as she spoke. (The unfortunate little Bill had left off writing on his slate with one finger, as he found it made no mark; but he now hastily began again, using the ink, that was trickling down his face, as long as it lasted.) `Then the words don't FIT you,' said the King, looking round the court with a smile. There was a dead silence. `It's a pun!' the King added in an offended tone, and everybody laughed, `Let the jury consider their verdict,' the King said, for about the twentieth time that day. `No, no!' said the Queen. `Sentence first--verdict afterwards.' `Stuff and nonsense!' said Alice loudly. `The idea of having the sentence first!' `Hold your tongue!' said the Queen, turning purple. `I won't!' said Alice. `Off with her head!' the Queen shouted at the top of her voice. Nobody moved. `Who cares for you?' said Alice, (she had grown to her full size by this time.) `You're nothing but a pack of cards!' At this the whole pack rose up into the air, and came flying down upon her: she gave a little scream, half of fright and half of anger, and tried to beat them off, and found herself lying on the bank, with her head in the lap of her sister, who was gently brushing away some dead leaves that had fluttered down from the trees upon her face. `Wake up, Alice dear!' said her sister; `Why, what a long sleep you've had!' `Oh, I've had such a curious dream!' said Alice, and she told her sister, as well as she could remember them, all these strange Adventures of hers that you have just been reading about; and when she had finished, her sister kissed her, and said, `It WAS a curious dream, dear, certainly: but now run in to your tea; it's getting late.' So Alice got up and ran off, thinking while she ran, as well she might, what a wonderful dream it had been. But her sister sat still just as she left her, leaning her head on her hand, watching the setting sun, and thinking of little Alice and all her wonderful Adventures,</s>

And while I was surprised that so many people just like me waste so much energy trying to hide themselves, I was scared when I discovered that my silence has life-or-death consequences and long-term social repercussions. Twelve years: the length by which life expectancy is shortened for gay, lesbian and bisexual people in highly anti-gay communities compared to accepting communities. Twelve years reduced life expectancy. When I read that in The Advocate magazine this year, I realized I could no longer afford to keep silent. The effects of personal stress and social stigmas are a deadly combination. The study found that gays in anti-gay communities had higher rates of heart disease, violence and suicide. What I once thought was simply a personal matter I realized had a ripple effect that went into the workplace and out into the community for every story just like mine. My choice to hide and not share who I really am may have inadvertently contributed to this exact same environment and atmosphere of discrimination. I'd always told myself there's no reason to share that I was gay, but the idea that my silence has social consequences was really driven home this year when I missed an opportunity to change the atmosphere of discrimination in my own home state of Kansas. In February, the Kansas House of Representatives brought up a bill for vote that would have essentially allowed businesses to use religious freedom as a reason to deny gays services. A former coworker and friend of mine has a father who serves in the Kansas House of Representatives. He voted in favor of the bill, in favor of a law that would allow businesses to not serve me. How does my friend feel about lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning people? How does her father feel? I don't know, because I was never honest with them about who I am. And that shakes me to the core. What if I had told her my story years ago? Could she have told her father my experience? Could I have ultimately helped change his vote? I will never know, and that made me realize I had done nothing to try to make a difference. How ironic that I work in human resources, a profession that works to welcome, connect and encourage the development of employees, a profession that advocates that the diversity of society should be reflected in the workplace, and yet I have done nothing to advocate for diversity.</s>

After that, Sebastian was called, and they went to the drawing room in order to hear the report. I was told that I could attend. “So, Nicholas. What did His Grace say?” “Lord Ekenhart...” Apparently, Nicholas had been able to meet Mr. Ekenhart at the halfway point between this mansion and the main residence. This was due to the fact that Mr. Ekenhart had been taking his time and traveling at a leisurely pace. It turned out that my herbs had also been useful, and Nicholas thanked me. I was glad to hear it. “I see... Very good. Well, you must be tired, so you can go and rest.” “Yes.” After finishing his report, Nicholas left the drawing room. As it would have been a tough ride, he would be quite exhausted. “Now, I must relay this information to Lady Claire.” “Yes.” And so Sebastian left in order to speak to her. I stayed behind with Leo and Ms. Lyra. As for Milina and Ms. Gelda, they were in the garden watching Tilura and Sherry. “Watch and wait, huh...” I thought back on what I had just heard. Before leaving to see Mr. Ekenhart, Nicholas had done some searching in Ractos as well, and had a grasp on the malicious store. I suppose he had also spoken with Sebastian as well. He even knew that the count was involved, that they had been buying all the herbs and medicine in the town, and that they had started selling shortly after the spread of the disease. After telling everything to Mr. Ekenhart, the reply had been to wait and see. “Even someone like Mr. Ekenhart isn’t able to take action immediately...” As the store was in his territory, he could easily have it shut down. Only, it could lead to other complications with the noble house later on. And so he would rather act once they had irrefutable evidence. Also, Mr. Ekenhart himself was going to look into this matter with the count. While it was unlikely to be resolved soon, I still wanted to do something about this store that was hurting the people. “But I suppose there is no point in me thinking about it.” I drank the rest of the tea that Ms. Lyra had poured, and then I went out into the garden to switch gears. “Why are you running too, Milina?” “Ha...ha... Because I’m quite confident in my athletic ability...” When I arrived at the garden, I saw that Milina was running with Tilura and Sherry. Sherry always ran with her, but I didn’t see why Milina needed to run as well. After running, Milia smiled happily as she caught her breath.</s>

This was probably his way of closing the fight. I managed to succeed in saving Cloud, so I had no reason to continue the fight at this point. No, well, I had one... But it was not worth the risk. “...Nicole.” “Nicole... Huh? Okay, I remembered it. Well then, let’s make you the next target, Nicole.” “Next target...?” After he said that much, I finally caught on to something. He was a first-class swordsman... No, even higher than that, who had the Stealth Gift. His presence here could not be a mere coincidence. I remembered an incident that a man of his caliber caused fairly recently. “So you... You are the one who assassinated Count Tarkashire?” It was an assassination incident that was caused by someone who most probably held a similar Stealth Gift to mine. Someone with that ability was in front of me now, so there was no way he was uninvolved. As expected, Mateus spread his arms wide in exaggeration and affirmed my question. “Exaaaaaactly! Good job realizing that. As expected of my rival, huh? How about you become my wife when you grow up?” “Again with that, huh?” This time, he responded with a dejected drop of his shoulders. He was extremely expressive of his emotions... Or more like, he seemed to be pretending as if that was the case. “Under whose orders did you kill Tarkashire?” “I can’t go answering that now, can I?” “...Right.” If he was an assassin like me, he wouldn’t go revealing his employer’s name. If possible, I wanted to restrain him to keep him from escaping... But the other party was fully aware of that. “Well then, looks like your friends would be arriving soon, so it’s about time I made my escape.” He suddenly leaped back and straddled on the other horse. Since the previous guy didn’t take the carriage with him, there was one more horse remaining there. “I am Mateus of the Jend sect of the hidden blade style. I hope you remember me until we meet again.” With those words, he made his escape. I had no time to chase after him. I couldn’t leave Cloud be, after all. Following that, I heard the neighs of horses and sounds of metal. It seemed that the guards had finally arrived.</s>

And what we learned is Cesar's work is far too good to explain in The New York Times Magazine. Five thousand products -- that's still nothing. Five thousand products -- imagine counting every product category in Cesar Hidalgo's data. Imagine you had one second per product category. In about the length of this session, you would have counted all 5,000. Now imagine doing the same thing for every different type of product on sale in Walmart. There are 100,000 there. It would take you all day. Now imagine trying to count every different specific product and service on sale in a major economy such as Tokyo, London or New York. It's even more difficult in Edinburgh because you have to count all the whisky and the tartan. If you wanted to count every product and service on offer in New York -- there are 10 billion of them -- it would take you 317 years. This is how complex the economy we've created is. And I'm just counting toasters here. I'm not trying to solve the Middle East problem. The complexity here is unbelievable. And just a piece of context -- the societies in which our brains evolved had about 300 products and services. You could count them in five minutes. So this is the complexity of the world that surrounds us. This perhaps is why we find the God complex so tempting. We tend to retreat and say, "We can draw a picture, we can post some graphs, we get it, we understand how this works." And we don't. We never do. Now I'm not trying to deliver a nihilistic message here. I'm not trying to say we can't solve complicated problems in a complicated world. We clearly can. But the way we solve them is with humility -- to abandon the God complex and to actually use a problem-solving technique that works. And we have a problem-solving technique that works. Now you show me a successful complex system, and I will show you a system that has evolved through trial and error. Here's an example. This baby was produced through trial and error. I realize that's an ambiguous statement. Maybe I should clarify it. This baby is a human body: it evolved. What is evolution? Over millions of years, variation and selection, variation and selection -- trial and error, trial and error. that produce miracles through trial and error. You could use it in an industrial context.

Leaving Reesha behind, who still had work to do over at the administrative district, the other two headed back to the commercial district, straight back to Sareenea’s store as she got back to work on Schenna’s request. “Well, a promise is a promise so drop by the store in a week and I’ll have it ready for you to take, for free.” “Okay...” — said Schenna as if her soul was about to leave her body.Behind Schenna, the figure of Sareenea concentrating hard on her work began to overlap with Kashiyama Madoka, the love of Schenna in her previous life. Schenna had just gone through a lot of trouble because of her but then again, she had forgiven her all too easily. She was well aware that her attitude towards Sareenea was way too soft. Schenna didn’t feel comfortable next to Sareenea and tried to leave her store immediately, however... She then proceeded to take out some sort of small machine from her breasts and playback Schenna’s embarrass-filled voice.As she heard her voice from the machine, which was some sort of recording device, she swore deep in her heart to never forgive her again. She then went back to the restaurant and informed Kishana about the situation, and that the freezer would be ready in about a week. “You did it! Now we can start conserving the ingredients” “Yeah....”“What’s the matter? You look somewhat depressed, did something happen?” Schenna then explained to Kishana how the alchemist turned out to be Kashiyama Madoka and how they got taken to the administrative district after getting caught with Schenna’s act. Without being able to conceal her face in shock of knowing that there were more people from the plane crash being present in this world, even more so due to the fact that this time, it was her first love, she couldn’t help but feel it was fate. “I can imagine your re-encounter with your first love from years ago being tough. She was a really smart and beautiful girl, but apparently she had been working on doujinshi on the side.”“Doujinshi?” Kishana explained what doujinshi was to Schenna as best as she could and Schenna seemed to somewhat understand it. Schenna had not eaten anything since morning and the sound coming from her stomach gave it away. “Sorry, is there anything to eat?” “Just wait a bit!” Kishana began cooking in the kitchen. She cut an onion and chicken meat to match a one-person meal, then added some salt to it. Instantly moving it to an iron fry pan, switching around the sides of the meat to make sure both were well cooked and finished it within minutes. “Here you go, a fine yakitori plate! I bought the chicken parts from the market and tried to figure out the best dishes to cook with it, but in the end nothing beats yakitori, from children to adults, it’s a plate that pleases just about anyone.

And so I would make a check mark on the parts I didn’t understand or had questions regarding. Ah, I needed something to write with... Now that I think about it, I did buy a pen last time I went shopping. I got up from the bed and grabbed the pen that was on my desk. This wasn’t like the fountain pens from my old world, but was a quill pen. And so it was part of a set that contained an inkpot. And while it looked luxurious, I was not used to writing with it, and so it was with shaky hands that I marked the contract. And so for a while, I read the contents until Ms. Lyra came to tell us that dinner was ready. By then, I had most of the contract in my head. And so Ms. Lyra and I woke up the sulking Leo, and then I took the contract and headed to the dining hall.</s>

So as you can see, we are always solving. We are always trying to decode our world. It's an eternal quest.

Raise your hands if you've read "Don Quixote." There we go. Smart audience. Who's read "Don Quixote?" Get them up. Okay, good, because I need somebody smart here because now I'm going to demonstrate with the help of one of you just how deeply rooted your urge to solve is, just how wired to solve all of you really are, so I'm going to come into the audience and find somebody to help me. Let's see. Everybody's looking away all of a sudden. Can I? Would you? What is your name? Gwen. I'm not a mind reader, I can see your name tag. Come with me, Gwen. Everyone give her a round of applause, make her feel welcome. Gwen, after you. Are you so excited? Did you know that your name is worth eight points in Scrabble? Okay, stand right here, Gwen, right here. Now, Gwen, before we begin, I'd like to point out a piece of the puzzle, which is here in this envelope, and I will not go near it. Okay? And over here we have a drawing of some farm animals. You can see we have an owl, we have a horse, a donkey, a rooster, an ox, and a sheep, and then here, Gwen, we have some fancy art store markers, colors like, can you see that word right there? Gwen: Cobalt. David Kwong: Cobalt, yes. Cobalt. But we have a silver, a red, an emerald, and an amber marker, and Gwen, you are going to color this drawing just like you were five years old, one marker at a time. It's going to be a lot of fun.

All right. Great. And why don't you take that marker and recap it and place it on the table for me. Okay, and pick up another marker out of the cup and take off the cap and color in the donkey for me, color in the donkey. Big scribbles. Okay, cool, and re-cap that marker and place it on the table.

This was done under local anesthesia, as an outpatient. And we got, again, about three to six times more stem cells than the standard approach done on the same patient. So why should you care? Bone marrow is a very rich source of adult stem cells. You all know about embryonic stem cells. They've got great potential but haven't yet entered clinical trials. Adult stem cells are throughout our body, including the blood-forming stem cells in our bone marrow, which we've been using as a form of stem-cell therapy for over 40 years. In the last decade there's been an explosion of use of bone marrow stem cells to treat the patient's other diseases such as heart disease, vascular disease, orthopedics, tissue engineering, even in neurology to treat Parkinson's and diabetes. We've just come out, we're commercializing, this year, generation 2.0 of the Marrow Miner. The hope is that this gets more stem cells out, which translates to better outcomes. It may encourage more people to sign up to be potential live-saving bone marrow donors. It may even enable you to bank your own marrow stem cells, when you're younger and healthier, to use in the future should you need it. And ultimately -- and here's a picture of our bone marrow transplant survivors, who come together for a reunion each year at Stanford. Hopefully this technology will let us have more of these survivors in the future. Thanks.</s>

That’s a shame...” “But you know, a cute kid like you shouldn’t be alone, or some nasty people might try to take advantage of you.” “Are you a nasty person?” I retort. She takes a moment to compose herself, taking a deep breath. “That was a close one... You need to watch your words. Do you even know where you are?” “Akihabara, right?” “Yes! It’s a city filled with the niche desires of people from all over Japan!” “Um, isn’t it just a holy land for otaku?” “That’s just the surface.

Teleport? I won’t use it. It would be exceedingly adverse for me to be exposed to them any longer if they discovered the outline of my skills. “So you are the perpetrator who wreaked this havoc... Who are you and where do you come from? Antarctica is supposed to have a defense line of the Polar Queen-sama’s demons in all directions.” Bob revealed his wariness and questioned me while masking his trepidation. I mean, Bob-san, seeing you up close, you are huge... almost meters in height. “My name is Ichiko. I was sent here by someone with a transportation skill.” “Ichiko... Japanese, huh? You said you were transported here, but where did you come from?” His vigilance grew in intensity. Well, I doubt that Bob’s capabilities will be adequate to handle this situation even if he was alerted. For now, I should answer the question. Though I can predict your reaction after saying it. “From the Korean peninsula.” “Hah?” Ah, I knew you would react like this. Anyone would have this reaction. Even I would respond this way if I had no knowledge of the incident. “Well, is that a joke?” “No, it’s true.” “That’s absurd! Don’t you know how far away that is! I doubt even the Demon King could do such a thing!” “But it’s true.” “Like I said, that’s not possible!!” “That is sadly the truth...” I put my palm on my temples to demonstrate to Bob how much my head hurt. Until a moment ago, Bob had a look of incredulity on his face, but now even he had the same expression as mine. But you know, I understand how you feel. When I informed him that this was the truth, I became saddened as well. “Who the hell is the one who transported you? That Demon King...” “That’s...” Somehow, I felt that it would be advisable not to answer this question honestly. “...I don’t know.” It seemed that Bob did not suspect anything. Perhaps the Polar Queen... was peeping at me through him. “And now, the Polar Queen-sama has a question for you. [So, what is your race?]. Excuse me, but the day you don’t answer or deceive her, she will regard you as an enemy.” “I don’t mind that much. My race is the ‘Blade Princess of the Undefined Sword’.” Once I disclosed my race, Bob’s expression became utterly vacant. That face was probably implying, “Eh? Are you not joking, but serious? Are you out of your mind? That kind of obvious endemic race is limited to Demon Kings. To be frank, I can’t catch up with your explanation, so I’m going to stop thinking about it”.</s>

So if you look at this in the context of visualizing the bailout, what you can see is if you stack up dollar bills, first of all, 360,000 dollars is about the size of a five-foot-four guy. But if you stack it up, you just see this amazing, staggering amount of dollars that have been put into the system to fund and bail us out. So this is the first 315 billion. But I read this fact the other day, that one trillion seconds equals 32 thousand years, so if you think about that, the context, the casualness with which we talk about trillion-dollar bailout here, and trillion there, we are stacking ourselves up for long-term leverage. However, consumers have moved. They are taking responsibility. What we're seeing is an uptake in the savings rate. In fact, 11 straight months of savings have happened since the beginning of the crisis. We are working our way back up to that 10 percent. spending dropped to its lowest level in 62 years, almost a 3.7 percent decline. Visa now reports that more people are using debit cards than they're using credit cards. So we're starting to pay for things with money that we have. about how we save and how we invest. But that's not really the whole story. Because this has also been a dramatic time of transformation. And you've got to admit, over the course of the last year and a half, consumers have been doing some pretty weird things. It's been pretty staggering, what we've lived through. If you take into account 80 percent of all Americans were born after World War II, this is essentially our Depression. And so, as a result, some crazy things have happened. I'll give you some examples. Lets talk about dentists, vasectomies, guns and shark attacks. Okay? Dentists report molars, you know, people grinding their teeth, coming in and reporting the fact that they've had stress. And so there is an increase in people having to have their fillings replaced. Guns, gun sales, according to the FBI, who does background checks, are up almost 25 percent since January. Vasectomies are up 48 percent, according to the Cornell institute. And lastly, but a very good point, hopefully not related to the former point I just made, which is that shark attacks are at their lowest level from 2003. Does anybody know why? No one is at the beach. So there is a bright side to everything. But seriously, what we see happening, and the reason I want to stress that the consumer is not in retreat, is that this is a tremendous opportunity for the consumer who drove us into this recession to lead us right back out.</s>

And this is really what the new science of stress reveals, that how you think about stress matters. So my goal as a health psychologist has changed. I no longer want to get rid of your stress. I want to make you better at stress. And we just did a little intervention. If you raised your hand and said you'd had a lot of stress in the last year, we could have saved your life, because hopefully the next time your heart is pounding from stress, you're going to remember this talk and you're going to think to yourself, this is my body helping me rise to this challenge. And when you view stress in that way, your body believes you, and your stress response becomes healthier. Now I said I have over a decade of demonizing stress to redeem myself from, so we are going to do one more intervention. I want to tell you about one of the most under-appreciated aspects of the stress response, and the idea is this: Stress makes you social. To understand this side of stress, we need to talk about a hormone, oxytocin, and I know oxytocin has already gotten as much hype as a hormone can get. It even has its own cute nickname, the cuddle hormone, because it's released when you hug someone. But this is a very small part of what oxytocin is involved in. Oxytocin is a neuro-hormone. It fine-tunes your brain's social instincts. It primes you to do things that strengthen close relationships. Oxytocin makes you crave physical contact with your friends and family. It enhances your empathy. It even makes you more willing to help and support the people you care about. Some people have even suggested we should snort oxytocin... to become more compassionate and caring. But here's what most people don't understand about oxytocin. It's a stress hormone. Your pituitary gland pumps this stuff out as part of the stress response. It's as much a part of your stress response as the adrenaline that makes your heart pound. And when oxytocin is released in the stress response, it is motivating you to seek support. Your biological stress response is nudging you to tell someone how you feel, instead of bottling it up. Your stress response wants to make sure you notice when someone else in your life is struggling so that you can support each other. When life is difficult, your stress response wants you to be surrounded by people who care about you.</s>

It should be around six now? With this we should be able to avoid some of the crowds. I see, it seems the two took this into consideration. Lily and Arisa sure were good kids. Additionally, Norn and Bell were house-sitting. Sorry.......it wasn’t much of an apology, but I left them some Mad Bull meat for dinner. I grilled it using the yakiniku sauce I made myself. It goes without saying that Lily and Arisa were staring quite intensely at me. We traveled from the inn to the restaurant on foot, but since it was quite close, we arrived in less than five minutes. When we entered inside, Lily got us a waiting room and we waited for a while. Meanwhile, Lily was giving various orders to the waiter. I guess she’ll be handling the orders? Well, that was fine with me since I was the one being treated. It was my first time in this kind of place, so I wasn’t really familiar with things too....... After a while, we were led into a large hall. The tables weren’t evenly spaced apart, but they were spaced some distance apart. I guess there weren’t any private rooms since this area was for ordinary people? But it still looked quite high class despite being an area for ordinary people. Apparently, each area had different course meal selections. Incidentally, the area for nobles was further back, and were private rooms. Lily told me all this while we were moving, I see. We were guided to a table and a situation occurred where I had tried to pull the seat and sit down when the waiter was supposed to do it for me. And it seems there were issues with me keeping my cloak on. I thought I was allowed to keep my cloak on? When I asked, I was told that it used to be the case, but the rule had been revised due to recent issues with the appearance of some adventurers. What should I even say here. There was no way we were going to return without eating after having come this far. So I gave up and took off my cloak. “I’m sorry.......for something like this to happen........” “It’s fine, don’t worry about it.” I felt apologetic towards Lily who felt that the incident was her fault. So really please don’t mind it, okay? When I gave up and took off my cloak and gave it to the waiter, the eyes of the people in the surrounding seats immediately gathered on me and I became a bit restless. The waiter’s eyes were also wide with surprise. Mumumu. But since we were already here, I have no choice but to ignore it, so just ignore everything! After I recomposed myself, we chatted for a bit and the food was finally brought out. I feel excited! All the dishes were placed onto the table at once. It didn’t seem like it was course-style. Lily explained that even though this area was used by people with more wealth, most of the people were still commoners and thus didn’t know formal dining etiquette. As such, some people would complain or be confused when the food was brought out course-style.</s>

We're not talking about Connecticut. And the rationale for this behavior is explicitly religious. The creator of the universe himself has told us not to spare the rod, lest we spoil the child -- this is in Proverbs 13 and 20, and I believe, 23. But we can ask the obvious question: Is it a good idea, generally speaking, to subject children to pain and violence and public humiliation as a way of encouraging healthy emotional development and good behavior? that this question has an answer, and that it matters? Now, many of you might worry that the notion of well-being is truly undefined, and seemingly perpetually open to be re-construed. And so, how therefore can there be an objective notion of well-being? Well, consider by analogy, the concept of physical health. The concept of physical health is undefined. As we just heard from Michael Specter, it has changed over the years. When this statue was carved the average life expectancy was probably 30. It's now around 80 in the developed world. There may come a time when we meddle with our genomes in such a way that not being able to run a marathon at age 200 will be considered a profound disability. People will send you donations when you're in that condition. Notice that the fact that the concept of health is open, genuinely open for revision, does not make it vacuous. The distinction between a healthy person and a dead one is about as clear and consequential as any we make in science. Another thing to notice is there may be many peaks on the moral landscape: There may be equivalent ways to thrive; there may be equivalent ways to organize a human society so as to maximize human flourishing. Now, why wouldn't this undermine an objective morality? Well think of how we talk about food: I would never be tempted to argue to you that there must be one right food to eat. There is clearly a range of materials that constitute healthy food. But there's nevertheless a clear distinction between food and poison. The fact that there are many right answers to the question, "What is food?" does not tempt us to say that there are no truths to be known about human nutrition. that a universal morality would require moral precepts that admit of no exceptions. So, for instance, if it's really wrong to lie, it must always be wrong to lie, and if you can find an exception, well then there's no such thing as moral truth. Why would we think this? Consider, by analogy, the game of chess. Now, if you're going to play good chess, a principle like, "Don't lose your Queen," is very good to follow. But it clearly admits some exceptions. There are moments when losing your Queen is a brilliant thing to do. There are moments when it is the only good thing you can do.</s>

The dragonkins could be divided into [Dragon] and [Wyrm]. Pseudo-dragon was the classification given to those mutated from the lizards or snakes which originally had outer appearances similar to that of dragons. Although they were classified as part of the dragonkin, they were technically not dragons. These pseudo-dragons were the post-mutated species of reptiles such as Komodo dragons and giant girdled lizards which also existed back on Earth. Once they were mutated by mana, as they could only be described as dragon-like magical beasts, they were called ‘Pseudo-dragons’. Needless to say, the wyverns that Mars were previously controlling was within this category. As a side note, the pre-mutated state of the wyvern was the gliding lizard. Additionally, when the snakes mutated, as their outer appearances became similar to those of wyrms, they were sometimes called [Pseudo-wyrms]. It was truly confusing. Later on, when the setting for the dragon was established, players retorted back (tsukommi) by saying “dragon already came out during the initial release”, which stomped the developers on what to do about their game. The developers had completely forgotten that they had already introduced dragons as small fry monsters. As they could not come up with a solution to this issue, they made up the confusing settings of “pseudo-dragons” as an excuse after saying “Those are not dragons. They’re just ‘fake dragons’; a mutated form of snakes.” And that was the circumstance behind the birth of the pseudo-dragons. Needless to say, as they were merely reptiles which had mutated into magical beasts with their outer appearances resembling those of dragons, they were not actually dragons. As a consequence, their abilities were not significant and were merely strong-looking small fries. Although they were merely fakes, as their outer appearances were “cool”, they were popular amongst the tamers. Next was the [Dinosaurs]. These creatures existed from the past in this world of Midgard and were authentic dinosaurs that had not yet been wiped out. In other words, dinosaurs were merely animals and thus not even magical beasts. Notwithstanding, the dinosaurs were quite strong to the extent of easily eating weaker magical beasts, demons and adventurers. At the very least, they were a significantly scarier and stronger group compared to the pseudo-dragons. To begin with, as the recent research on the dinosaurs back on Earth had established that dinosaurs had feathers on them, I believe the dinosaurs here were quite different from the dinosaurs there. Essentially, they looked like giant-reptile that were often portrayed in the th-century artworks of the dinosaurs. The next on the list was [Dragon]. Fundamentally in this world, when one mentions the word “dragon”, this category was what they were describing. These creatures were also magical beasts that were mutated by mana, however, their original form was what made them so fearsome. That was because this category of [Dragon] was the result of the aforementioned dinosaurs that had mutated.</s>

But Grulf couldn’t talk in the first place, so it was of no importance. ‘Indeed. What should we do?’ Luchila asked with a troubled expression. Everyone was able to listen to Telepathy. But only Shia, Kathe, and Luchila could talk with it. Serulis and Nia could not. ‘I should have taught you. I told you that I would do it soon. We’ll do it as soon as we get back.’ ‘Yes, that would be for the best. But what do we do now?’ ‘If you have something that you must say, raise your hand. Then perhaps you can write it down.’ Serulis, Nia, and Grulf nodded. ‘Oh, wait a minute. I need to tell the chiefs about the suspicious magic tool.’ I moved away from the magic tool so I could talk without being overheard, if it did happen to be a listening device. “Danton. Can you hear me?” ‘I can hear you. What is it? You’re whispering.’ Danton was also talking quietly. “I’ll give you the details later. But if you see anything suspicious over there, don’t go near it.” ‘Very well. Do you want me to tell the others?’ “Yes. It might be some kind of magic device. If you kill any vampires, I would advise that you leave their bodies alone for now.” ‘Understood.’ I could leave the rest to Danton. And so I returned to the magic tool. There were two objects that the enemy had left. One was the fist-sized device that was on the ground. It was the one that was disguised. The other thing had been hidden inside of a corpse. ‘In any case, we should inspect the thing that’s buried in the corpse.’ ‘Yes, I agree.’ ‘Shia, Serulis, Nia. You continue to deal with the other corpses.’ ‘Okay. Well, we’re practically finished already.’ There were only lesser vampires. In other words, only didn’t have a magic tool inside of them. And since they were experienced Adventurers, removing the magic stones was easy work. They just had to burn them now. And so I approached the remaining corpse and activated Magic Exploration. ‘I think I’ll try taking it out.’ Kathe and Shia watched from behind. They both seemed to be very curious. ‘And it makes me nervous to have people watch so closely.’ ‘But we want to see a first-rate Adventurer cut open a body!’ Hearing that made things even worse.

And everywhere I go the barrier is: "We want this, but we need it in our language." So here's what we think we want to do: Imagine giving a lecture and being able to talk to people in their own native language simultaneously. I want to talk to the people in Asia, Latin America, Africa, Europe seamlessly, accurately and in a cost-effective fashion using technology. And it has to be bi-directional. They have to be able to teach us something as well. It's a big task. So we looked for a universal translator; I thought there would be one out there. Your webpage has translation, your cellphone has translation, but nothing that's good enough to teach surgery. Because we need a lexicon. What is a lexicon? A lexicon is a body of words that describes a domain. I need to have a health care lexicon. And in that I need a surgery lexicon. That's a tall order. We have to work at it. So let me show you what we're doing. This is research -- can't buy it. We're working with the folks at IBM Research from the Accessibility Center to string together technologies to work towards the universal translator. It starts with a framework system where when the surgeon delivers the lecture using a framework of captioning technology, we then add another technology to do video conferencing. But we don't have the words yet, so we add a third technology. And now we've got the words, and we can apply the special sauce: the translation. We get the words up in a window and then apply the magic. We work with a fourth technology. And we currently have access to eleven language pairs. More to come as we think about trying to make the world a smaller place. And I'd like to show you our prototype of stringing all of these technologies that don't necessarily always talk to each other to become something useful. Narrator: Fundamentals of Laparoscopic Surgery. Module five: manual skills practice. Students may display captions in their native language. Steven Schwaitzberg: If you're in Latin America, you click the "I want it in Spanish" button and out it comes in real time in Spanish. But if you happen to be sitting in Beijing at the same time, by using technology in a constructive fashion, you could get it in Mandarin or you could get it in Russian -- on and on and on, simultaneously without the use of human translators. But that's the lectures. If you remember what I told you about FLS at the beginning, it's knowledge and skills. The difference in an operation between doing something successfully and not may be moving your hand this much. So we're going to take it one step further; we've brought my friend Allan back.

But over the next 40 years, it's going to change dramatically, even in China. The percentage of adults who are working age drops dramatically. And turned up the other way, the people who are retirement age goes up very, very fast, as the baby boomers get to retirement age. That means there will be more people with fewer social security dollars competing for services. But more than that, as we get older we get more frail and we can't do all the tasks we used to do. If we look at the statistics on the ages of caregivers, before our eyes those caregivers are getting older and older. That's happening statistically right now. And as the number of people who are older, above retirement age and getting older, as they increase, there will be less people to take care of them. And I think we're really going to have to have robots to help us. And I don't mean robots in terms of companions. I mean robots doing the things that we normally do for ourselves but get harder as we get older. Getting the groceries in from the car, up the stairs, into the kitchen. Or even, as we get very much older, driving our cars to go visit people. And I think robotics gives people a chance to have dignity as they get older by having control of the robotic solution. So they don't have to rely on people that are getting scarcer to help them. and working with robots like Baxter in our daily lives. And that we will -- Here, Baxter, it's good.

And everybody's happy about that. And they're happy over and over again. They keep doing it; they just keep making these things. And then, then, then, and then ... Then the dinosaurs, being social, act out their socialness, and they get together, and they conspire. And, of course, that's what makes Steven Spielberg's movie -- conspiring dinosaurs chasing people around. So I assume everybody knows that if you actually had a piece of amber and it had an insect in it, and you got something out of that insect, and you cloned it, and you did it over and over and over again, you'd have a room full of mosquitos. And probably a whole bunch of trees as well. Now if you want dinosaur DNA, I say go to the dinosaur. So that's what we've done. Back in 1993 when the movie came out, we actually had a grant from the National Science Foundation to attempt to extract DNA from a dinosaur, and we chose the dinosaur on the left, a Tyrannosaurus rex, which was a very nice specimen. And one of my former doctoral students, Dr. Mary Schweitzer, actually had the background to do this sort of thing. And so she looked into the bone of this T. rex, one of the thigh bones, and she actually found some very interesting structures in there. They found these red circular-looking objects, and they looked, for all the world, like red blood cells. And they're in what appear to be the blood channels that go through the bone. And so she thought, well, what the heck. So she sampled some material out of it. Now it wasn't DNA; she didn't find DNA. But she did find heme, which is the biological foundation of hemoglobin. And that was really cool. That was interesting. That was -- here we have 65-million-year-old heme. Well we tried and tried and we couldn't really get anything else out of it. So a few years went by, and then we started the Hell Creek Project. And the Hell Creek Project was this massive undertaking to get as many dinosaurs as we could possibly find, and hopefully find some dinosaurs that had more material in them. And out in eastern Montana there's a lot of space, a lot of badlands, and not very many people, And we did find a lot of stuff. We found a lot of Tyrannosaurs, but we found one special Tyrannosaur, and we called it B-rex. And B-rex was found under a thousand cubic yards of rock.

This alliance between dragons and humans is a secret.” “I understand.” The chief said as he knelt. “Still, even though it is not official, our gratitude towards you is real. I promise you that the water dragons will always offer you help if you ever need it.” There would be a reward ceremony in the palace later on. But Leea would not attend. And that was why she came. There was no fear of being seen by outsiders here. And so Leea thanked each and every one of them and handed them short swords. They were magical swords imbued with the power of water dragons. They had beautiful, blue blades. “Please accept these as proof of our friendship.” “We shall treasure them.” They looked expensive enough to buy a mansion if they sold them. Of course, I am sure they would do no such thing. “I want you to take one too, Locke.” “I am very flattered, but it would not be fair to the others if I received one personally.” The others received a sword as a tribe. So it was a little different. “What are you talking about? Without you...” The chiefs now repeated their words of gratitude. Leea also joined. “I want you to have it.” “Thank you.” The long, blue blade was beautiful, like a piece of art, but the decorations were simple. It was not only stunning but durable and practical. As the water dragons had cast purification magic on it, it seemed like it would be very effective against the dark ones. And then Leea gave Shia, Nia and Serulis rings. “I am giving this to you personally, not as the princess of the water dragons.” “Are you sure?” “I’m so happy.” “It’s because we are friends.” Leea said with a smile. And then Eric turned to the beastkin wolves. “It was a great victory. However, this is not the end. I too have rewards to give. You must all come to my palace on the day after tomorrow.” “Haha! Please leave the rest to us.” Then Eric said in a loud voice. “This victory was won by us all! The dark ones’ plan have been crushed! You should be proud!” “Woof-woof!’ “Groof-groof!” Shia and the beastkin all raised their voices in victory. Grulf joined them.</s>

At that day, in the village, the usual daily life was as usual, which brought about boredom. It doesn’t have any shadow of turbulence, the situation is so peaceful and carefree as always. The children is gathering and laughing happily in the plaza, while the adults cultivate the field with plow and hoes in their hands. It’s scenery is like usual, surely, nobody ever thought that this situation would eventually be destroyed. [Then, I’ll go out for a while][Alright, Russel. Take care] Russel went out the house like always, Cecil was holding Sierra and saw him off. She did not forget to kiss him on the left cheek. Naturally. [Lovey dovey—]Being teased by Sierra, Russel’s cheeks became bright red even though it’s their morning routine. Russel is off to work, in the morning he often goes around the fields and houses that he rent out. Nevertheless, since the fields near the village are mostly are Russel’s land, it is impossible to go around all the fields just by half a day. Therefore, Russel had adjusted and narrowed down the number of fields for only half a day, so he can go around all of them within seven days. Today, he planned to go through three fields in the morning. Like that, as per usual, Russel left the house. However, one of the villagers came approaching Russel on his way to the field. [Russel-san. Now, do you have time?][Sure, no problem... Is there something wrong?][You see, on the field that I rent from you, when I went there this morning, the crops are toppled over] Russel knitted his brows hearing the villager’s report. Deep wrinkle appear in the middle of his forehead. [Toppled over, you said?][Yeah, it is] According to the villager, when he went to the field this morning, all the crops in the farmland were dug up from the soil. And yet, there was no sign that the crop was eaten by something. It was as it they were being forcibly scooped out from the soil, and was thrown on the ground. Russel listened the villager’s story and was a little doubtful. There are certainly beasts that often ruins the farmland. Deer, wild boar, bear, or weasel. Those beasts who snatched the crops were usually being sold as human’s stock food or being sell from side to side. It’s not weird to say that the hostile creatures targeting the crops are part of the agriculture life in this village. But, if they were only rampaging on the field without eat anything, Those are just some nasty pranks. Prank, is a cuter word for this, but the meaning is same, which is to enjoy causing trouble for others. [Please help, Russel-san! If my field is left like this, it’ll impossible for me to harvest by this summer][Umu. I’ll go confirm it for the time being]</s>

Question: How much faster did this group solve the problem? Answer: It took them, on average, three and a half minutes longer. 3.5 min longer. This makes no sense, right? I mean, I'm an American. I believe in free markets. That's not how it's supposed to work, right? If you want people to perform better, you reward them. Right? Bonuses, commissions, their own reality show. Incentivize them. That's how business works. But that's not happening here. You've got an incentive designed to sharpen thinking and accelerate creativity, and it does just the opposite. It dulls thinking and blocks creativity. What's interesting about this experiment is that it's not an aberration. This has been replicated over and over again for nearly 40 years. These contingent motivators -- if you do this, then you get that -- work in some circumstances. But for a lot of tasks, they actually either don't work or, often, they do harm. This is one of the most robust findings in social science, and also one of the most ignored. I spent the last couple of years looking at the science of human motivation, particularly the dynamics of extrinsic motivators and intrinsic motivators. And I'm telling you, it's not even close. If you look at the science, there is a mismatch between what science knows and what business does. What's alarming here is that our business operating system -- think of the set of assumptions and protocols beneath our businesses, how we motivate people, how we apply our human resources-- it's built entirely around these extrinsic motivators, around carrots and sticks. That's actually fine for many kinds of 20th century tasks. But for 21st century tasks, that mechanistic, reward-and-punishment approach doesn't work, often doesn't work, and often does harm. Let me show you. Glucksberg did another similar experiment, he presented the problem in a slightly different way, like this up here. Attach the candle to the wall so the wax doesn't drip onto the table. Same deal. You: we're timing for norms. You: we're incentivizing. What happened this time? This time, the incentivized group kicked the other group's butt. Why? Because when the tacks are out of the box, it's pretty easy isn't it? If-then rewards work really well for those sorts of tasks, where there is a simple set of rules and a clear destination to go to. Rewards, by their very nature, narrow our focus, concentrate the mind; that's why they work in so many cases. So, for tasks like this, a narrow focus, where you just see the goal right there, zoom straight ahead to it, they work really well.</s>

And that happens at every peripheral node. And in fact, it happens throughout the network as you move in, everyone you pick, when they nominate a random -- when a random person nominates a friend of theirs, you move closer to the center of the network. So, we thought we would exploit this idea in order to study whether we could predict phenomena within networks. Because now, with this idea we can take a random sample of people, have them nominate their friends, those friends would be more central, and we could do this without having to map the network. And we tested this idea with an outbreak of H1N1 flu at Harvard College in the fall and winter of 2009, just a few months ago. We took 1,300 randomly selected undergraduates, we had them nominate their friends, and we followed both the random students and their friends daily in time to see whether or not they had the flu epidemic. And we did this passively by looking at whether or not they'd gone to university health services. And also, we had them [actively] email us a couple of times a week. Exactly what we predicted happened. So the random group is in the red line. The epidemic in the friends group has shifted to the left, over here. And the difference in the two is 16 days. By monitoring the friends group, we could get 16 days advance warning of an impending epidemic in this human population. Now, in addition to that, if you were an analyst who was trying to study an epidemic or to predict the adoption of a product, for example, what you could do is you could pick a random sample of the population, also have them nominate their friends and follow the friends and follow both the randoms and the friends. Among the friends, the first evidence you saw of a blip above zero in adoption of the innovation, for example, would be evidence of an impending epidemic. Or you could see the first time the two curves diverged, as shown on the left. When did the randoms -- when did the friends take off and leave the randoms, and [when did] their curve start shifting? And that, as indicated by the white line, occurred 46 days before the peak of the epidemic. So this would be a technique whereby we could get more than a month-and-a-half warning about a flu epidemic in a particular population. I should say that how far advanced a notice one might get about something depends on a host of factors. It could depend on the nature of the pathogen -- different pathogens, using this technique, you'd get different warning -- or other phenomena that are spreading, or frankly, on the structure of the human network. Now in our case, although it wasn't necessary, we could also actually map the network of the students. So, this is a map of 714 students and their friendship ties.</s>

I understand Liz-san.... but why would anyone be calling me an angel? Seriously, referring to me simply as a plain old black devil would be fine with me. Or, if they’d at least drop the angel part, I wouldn’t really care regardless of what they called me. There isn’t a single angelic thing about me. Even my features lean more towards the demonic side. Whereas Liz-san fits the term angel perfectly. Whether it’s her personality, her face.... or in particular that perfect smile of hers. “Ugh, this sucks.” With my hand clutching at my forehead, I let my frustrations leak out like a sigh. It feels like I fell all the way from cloud nine down to the bitter pits of purgatory. Bring me back those high spirits from a couple minutes ago! “Why are they calling me an angel?” “Don’t worry, they’re not saying it outright.” “Then how do you even know about it, Gilles?” The only thing I can say is, ‘as expected of him.’ “In the background, a war is waging between Liz’s faction and yours.” “.....Why do you look so delighted by that?” “I just feel happy whenever I think about how your supporters are growing,” Gilles says, the corners of his eyes crinkling in pure, innocent joy. I’m being supported by strangers.... people whom I don’t know and who likewise don’t know me.... “Though, the people in your faction would never just come out and admit that they support you.” “....Well, obviously. They’re overwhelmingly outnumbered by Liz-san’s faction. Anyone with half a brain wouldn’t show off their allegiance under such disadvantageous circumstances. But seriously. Where do you get all this information from?” I demand, scrutinizing him. Gilles gazes at me a moment and then sighs as if he’s given up. “From Henry.” “From Henry-Oniisama?” ....Hm. That was unexpectedly easy. I thought he’d hold out for at least a little bit longer. I guess after all these years we’ve really come to understand each other well. Because Gilles knows how stubborn I can be, he decided to give in now rather than later. We make quite the pair. “You know, I’m involved in quite a lot of things that you’re unaware of, Alicia,” Gilles tells me proudly, smiling at me in a way that seems to contain a hidden meaning behind his words. Involved in a lot of things? Like what I wonder? We’re together practically every second of the day, so it feels weird to think that there’s still sides to him that I don’t know about. .....Though, now that I think about it, he did seem to hit it off well with Professor John the other day, maybe he’s gotten involved with research or something? And why is he looking at me as if he’s won? In my eyes, it almost looks like all the books on the shelves seem to be giving Gilles a round of applause, extoling his triumph....

We can ask how exactly he got to be in this particular location compared to his neighbors -- if it was just chance, or destiny, or what? Now, after admonishing us for turning the temperature up too high, he would tell us that our question was completely stupid. These corals can be quite kind of mean, you see, and I have surfing scars to prove that. But this polyp would continue and tell us that his neighbors were quite clearly identical copies of him. That he was in all these other locations as well, but experiencing them as separate individuals. For a coral, branching into different copies is the most natural thing in the world. Unlike us, a hyper-intelligent coral would be uniquely prepared to understand quantum mechanics. The mathematics of quantum mechanics very accurately describes how our universe works. And it tells us our reality is continually branching into different possibilities, just like a coral. It's a weird thing for us humans to wrap our minds around, since we only ever get to experience one possibility. This quantum weirdness was first described by Erwin Schrödinger and his cat. The cat likes this version better. In this setup, Schrödinger is in a box with a radioactive sample that, by the laws of quantum mechanics, branches into a state in which it is radiated and a state in which it is not. In the branch in which the sample radiates, it sets off a trigger that releases poison and Schrödinger is dead. But in the other branch of reality, he remains alive. These realities are experienced separately by each individual. As far as either can tell, the other one doesn't exist. only experiences an individual existence, and we don't get to see other branches. It's as if each of us, like Schrödinger here, are a kind of coral branching into different possibilities. The mathematics of quantum mechanics tells us this is how the world works at tiny scales. It can be summed up in a single sentence: Everything that can happen, does. That's quantum mechanics. But this does not mean everything happens. The rest of physics is about describing what can happen and what can't. What physics tells us is that everything comes down to geometry and the interactions of elementary particles. And things can happen only if these interactions are perfectly balanced. Now I'll go ahead and describe how we know about these particles, what they are and how this balance works. In this machine, a beam of protons and anti-protons are accelerated to near the speed of light and brought together in a collision, producing a burst of pure energy. This energy is immediately converted into a spray of subatomic particles, with detectors and computers used to figure out their properties. This enormous machine -- the large Hadron Collider at CERN in Geneva -- has a circumference of 17 miles and, when it's operating, draws five times as much power as the city of Monterey. We can't predict specifically what particles will be produced in any individual collision. Quantum mechanics tells us all possibilities are realized. But physics does tell us what particles can be produced.</s>

The mercenaries seemed to think that I was some knight that worked directly for the king, and that this was a secret mission. Well, even if it was wrong, it wasn’t too far from the truth. “You saved our lives. Thank you.” The mercenaries thanked us. “Don’t mention it. By the way, were there any places that you were told to avoid at all costs?” “Aye, there is. The building on the northside is the ambassador’s office and living quarters. It’s said to have all the diplomatic secrets. And so we were not allowed to go close to it.” “They said that if we went near it, we could be executed as spies.” “And so we wouldn’t dare go near it.” “Thank you. That’s very helpful information.” “I’m glad to be of service.” “Now, what will it be? The room that the leader is sleeping in? Or the room next to it?” “What do you mean?” “We are going to go and fight against the vampires now. And we cannot take anyone who hasn’t had special training.” We could not take the mercenaries with us to fight the vampires. That being said, we couldn’t let them go, as they had to be interrogated later. And so I would have to lock them up in one of the rooms. It was also best for their own safety. I explained this to them, however... “We are veteran mercenaries. We will not get in your way.” “Maybe against another enemy. But this vampire is likely above a Lord. It will cast Charm on you.” “...I see. Perhaps you are right.” As the mercenaries had basic knowledge about vampires, they were satisfied with this answer. After that, I had them enter the room next to the one with the leader and the charmed, as that was their preference. I suppose they did not want to be around a fanatical leader and charmed people. Even if they were sleeping. And so I cast defense magic over the entire room in order to protect them.</s>

Fansubbing The act of fansubbing during 1989-1993 combined translation, typesetting, and reproduction onto a videotape, followed by an initial round of distribution. As this analysis has shown, these translation, reproduction, and distribution steps were illegal. Therefore, the law prohibited fansubbing as practiced between 1989 and 1993. 4.12. Distributing Fansubs Before and After Licensing During 1989-1993, fans quickly distinguished between two periods for an anime product: the period before a title was domestically licensed, and the period after. From a legal standpoint, fansubs during both periods were illegal. However, a fansub during the latter period violates a domestic copyright of a domestic licensee, rather than a domestic copyright of an overseas owner. It is meaningless to say that a work is “not copyrighted” in the United States before it is licensed, just as it is meaningless to say that a work enjoys “copyright throughout the world.” Rather, adherence to international treaties guarantees that US copyright in a Japanese animation exists in the United States from the date of Japanese publication. The commercial exploitation of an anime work does not begin in the US, however, until the Japanese license holder licenses one or more rights to a company that will exploit the American market. Japanese companies did not license these rights en masse for over two decades until fans created their own market through systematic violation of Japan’s unexploited copyrights. This risk-taking by fans tells much about the pivotal role of a proselytization commons in the progress of the arts. Furthermore, this analysis evinces how copyright law could have obstructed that progress had any of copyright’s minutiae been enforced. 4.13. Before We Conclude This analysis is not attempting to construct an argument against the whole of international copyright law. Copyrights, and international recognition of copyrights, are invaluable in numerous cases. International copyright recognition has been instrumental to anime’s commercial success for Japan as well as for America: every time this study uses “license,” the word signals a transfer of exclusive rights between two countries, along with continual transfers of capital and value. As one American executive in the field said, “the most effective argument starts, ‘Pay to the Order of.’” Without international copyrights, the anime market could not have grown and capitalized as it has today.</s>

And this all came to a head when I was on a backpacking trip, my first one ever actually, on Old Rag Mountain in West Virginia, and was putting my face into puddles of water and drinking like a dog. That night, I was taken into the emergency room and diagnosed as a type 1 diabetic in full-blown ketoacidosis. And I recovered, thanks to the miracles of modern medicine, insulin and other things, and gained all my weight back and more. And something festered inside me after this happened. What I thought about was, what caused the diabetes? You see, diabetes is an autoimmune disease where your body fights itself, and at the time people thought that somehow maybe exposure to a pathogen had triggered my immune system to fight the pathogen and then kill the cells that make insulin. And this is what I thought for a long period of time, and that's in fact what medicine and people have focused on quite a bit, the microbes that do bad things. And that's where I need my assistant here now. You may recognize her. So, I went yesterday, I apologize, I skipped a few of the talks, and I went over to the National Academy of Sciences building, and they sell toys, giant microbes. And here we go! So you have caught flesh-eating disease if you caught that one. I gotta get back out my baseball ability here. So, unfortunately or not surprisingly, most of the microbes they sell at the National Academy building are pathogens. Everybody focuses on the things that kill us, and that's what I was focusing on. And it turns out that we are covered in a cloud of microbes, and those microbes actually do us good much of the time, rather than killing us. And so, we've known about this for some period of time. People have used microscopes to look at the microbes that cover us, I know you're not paying attention to me, but ... The microbes that cover us. And if you look at them in the microscope, you can see that we actually have 10 times as many cells of microbes on us as we have human cells. There's more mass in the microbes than the mass of our brain. We are literally a teeming ecosystem of microorganisms. And unfortunately, if you want to learn about the microorganisms, just looking at them in a microscope is not sufficient. And so we just heard about the DNA sequencing. It turns out that one of the best ways to look at microbes and to understand them is to look at their DNA. And that's what I've been doing for 20 years, using DNA sequencing, collecting samples from various places, including the human body, reading the DNA sequence and then using that DNA sequencing to tell us about the microbes that are in a particular place.</s>

I've designed puzzles for books, printed things. I'm the puzzle columnist for Discover Magazine. I've been doing that for about 10 years. I have a monthly puzzle calendar. I do toys. The bulk of my work is in computer games. I did puzzles for "Bejeweled." I didn't invent "Bejeweled." I can't take credit for that. So, very first puzzle, sixth grade, my teacher said, "Oh, let's see, that guy, he likes to make stuff. I'll have him cut out letters out of construction paper for the board." I thought this was a great assignment. And so here is what I came up with. I start fiddling with it. I came up with this letter. This is a letter of the alphabet that's been folded just once. The question is, which letter is it if I unfold it? One hint: It's not "L." It could be an "L," of course. So, what else could it be? Yeah, a lot of you got it. Oh yeah. So, clever thing. Now, that was my first puzzle. I got hooked. I created something new, I was very excited because, you know, I'd made crossword puzzles, but that's sort of like filling in somebody else's matrix. This was something really original. I got hooked. I read Martin Gardner's columns in Scientific American. Went on, and eventually decided to devote myself, full time, to that. Now, I should pause and say, what do I mean by puzzle? A puzzle is a problem that is fun to solve and has a right answer. "Fun to solve," as opposed to everyday problems, which, frankly, are not very well-designed puzzles. You know, they might have a solution. It might take a long time. Nobody wrote down the rules clearly. Who designed this? It's like, you know, life is not a very well-written story so we have to hire writers to make movies. Well, I take everyday problems, and I make puzzles out of them. And "right answer," of course there might be more than one right answer; many puzzles have more than one. But as opposed to a couple other forms of play, toys and games -- by toy I mean, something you play with that doesn't have a particular goal. You can create one out of Legos. You know, you can do anything you want. Or competitive games like chess where, well, you're not trying to solve ... You can make a chess puzzle, but the goal really is to beat another player. I consider that puzzles are an art form. They're very ancient. It goes back as long as there is written history.</s>

As expected, it being a request from the residential minister of foreign affairs, it was impossible to reject it. As a single Adventurer, Haumea had no choice but to obediently accept it. I waved my hand and wished well to Haumea, who was looking at Cole with eyes akin to cattle taken to the slaughterhouse. I wasn’t so reckless as to butt in here. “A-Anyway, let’s go look for the herbs, shall we? We also got mushroom commission today too.” “Mushrooms? They’re growing everywhere, so can’t we just pick them up randomly?” “Cloud you dummy, those random ones might be poisonous.” “Gh... Still, since it’s a commission, are they high-class items?” “Yeah. The Horton company apparently wants them to be used as seasonings.” “Heh. Could we get a bonus if we grab a whole lot of them?” “We have to start by testing how tasty they are. We could collect some for ourselves too, right?” “You sure stay true to yourself, Michelle. But yes, we can do that if we collect enough.” After discussing it with my comrades, I decided to leave the place at once. This was because the situation around us wasn’t looking very good. The fight between a noteworthy Adventurer like me and Haumea had gathered a lot of attention. The unexpected meeting had ruined the chance, but I was still standing on the training grounds. In other words, the entire place was filled with the air that told me they were all thinking this was a good opportunity to challenge me. Honestly, I didn’t want to waste my stamina fighting against people I didn’t care about. It was natural to avoid getting exhausted, seeing that we had to go to the forest after this. Still, if I bluntly rejected so many people’s requests here, it could come off as arrogant. Given that I was receiving the patronage of Lyell, Maria and Cortina, I didn’t want to spread bad impressions about me. “Okay, let’s go at once!” “Why’s the hurry?” “Just go!” Pushing the back of doubtful Letina, I fled the training grounds. From behind, I could hear the begrudged voice of those who missed their chance to fight me. “Agh, my chance to get locked in a grapple with Nicole...” “And me with Michelle...” “My chance to get stepped on by Lady Letina...” Yeah, I think there really was a need to wipe out some of Raum’s Adventurers. We left the city as if fleeing, and rushed into the forest. Since we wasted some time, the sun was already starting to go down. Our time in the forest was limited. “We were late to depart today, so we need to hurry. But we should still aim for our usual performance with gathering.” “That sounds quite hectic. However, I suppose it can serve as training to refine our observational powers.” “It’s as you say, Letina.” We quickly made our way through the forest, heading to our destination. Mixus Mushrooms were said to grow in moist areas on the bare ground. That was quite unusual, as mushrooms normally grew on the trees and plants.</s>

Facing Harris’s aura, the man finally makes a slip of tongue. 「They I will just go elsewhere!」「By the way, where is this elsewhere?」「Freestan. You shouldn’t have any authority there」「I see, but you forgot something」「I am one of thirteen apostles」 Even if you go to other places, thirteen apostles can freely move around, escaping in Freestan is useless. 「Damn, is it fine for the top of the church and one of the apostles to threaten people in broad daylight?」「Well, this is certainly a bad thing」「But we need to solve a problem at hand, can’t help it」 The two immediately admitted, and one even said a frightening thing. 「There is also a torture」「Yes, the Holy Church will deal with the aftermath」「I u-understand. I will talk. I will talk, so please stop」 Facing Harris’s menacing aura and Bagil’s sharp gaze, the man gave up. 「So you finally decided to speak」「I will talk. Please have mercy」 Looking at the man who tried to escape the torture by any means necessary, Bagil said. 「Just say it already. Although, if I have to guess, your employer is from the Freestan?」「You previously said that you will go to the Freestan. You probably wanted to return to your employer, right? 」 Bagil was concerned, why did the man want to go to Freestan of all other places? But the reason was quickly found. It also goes well with Bagil’s speculations. 「As you have guessed, my employer is a magician from Freestan. I don’t know his name, but I heard he is in the Freestan」「I don’t know the details, but I remember him talking about mass production of magicians」「Mass production?」「I don’t know about his methods, believe me. We were just told to collect girls」 At this time, the picture inside Bagil’s head was completed. And the anger welled up inside of him. The anger caused by criminal’s heretical studies. 「I see, I understand」「Did you figured something?」「Yes. I will head to Freestan right now」「All right, I will stay here for a while then」「Understood. Until we meet again」「Be careful」「Yes」 Then Bagil left the hospital room.

You've heard about the vaccine we're stockpiling. But nobody believes it will actually be particularly effective if we have a real outbreak. So one thought is: after 9/11, when the airports closed, our flu season was delayed by two weeks. So the thought is, hey, maybe what we should do is just immediately -- we hear there is H5N1 spreading from human to human, the virus has mutated to be a human-to-human transmitter -- let's shut down the airports. However, huge supercomputer analyses, done of the likely effectiveness of this, show that it won't buy us much time at all. And of course it will be hugely disruptive in preparation plans. For example, all masks are made in China. How do you get them mobilized around the world if you've shut all the airports down? How do you get the vaccines moved around the world and the drugs moved, and whatever may or not be available that would work. So it turns out that shutting down the airports is counterproductive. We're worried because this virus, unlike any other flu we've ever studied, can be transmitted by eating raw meat of the infected animals. We've seen transmission to wild cats and domestic cats, and now also domestic pet dogs. And in experimental feedings to rodents and ferrets, we found that the animals exhibit symptoms never seen with flu: seizures, central nervous system disorders, partial paralysis. This is not your normal garden-variety flu. It mimics what we now understand about reconstructing the 1918 flu virus, the last great pandemic, in that it also jumped directly from birds to people. We had evolution over time, and this unbelievable mortality rate in human beings: 55 percent of people who have become infected with H5N1 have, in fact, succumbed. And we don't have a huge number of people who got infected and never developed disease. In experimental feeding in monkeys a specific immune system modulator. The result is that what kills you is not the virus directly, but your own immune system overreacting, saying, "Whatever this is so foreign I'm going berserk." The result: most of the deaths have been in people under 30 years of age, robustly healthy young adults. We have seen human-to-human transmission in at least three clusters -- fortunately involving very intimate contact, still not putting the world at large at any kind of risk. Alright, so I've got you nervous. Now you probably assume, well the governments are going to do something.</s>

It seemed I was missing too much blood, after all. “Do not push yourself. You need to rest for some time. Even Priscilla could not move properly for days.” With those words, Maxwell picked me up and soared up with Flight. I could hear loud noises from the door, but Maxwell cast a Magic on it too. The spell locked the door very firmly, so it didn’t even budge. His dual use of spells as he fluttered into the air was quite impressive, to say the least. “What’s that?” “It is a spell called Hard Lock. It makes the entire door harder than iron, so one cannot tear it down.” “Oh... Then, what about that side wall?” “Hmm?” Right as I pointed it out, someone thrust a sword through that wall. Unlike the marbled floor, the walls weren’t so hard it seems. “This is not good!” Exclaiming, Maxwell dropped off the tied-up and fainted Klein, and flew from the window while carrying me. ◇◆◇◆◇ That night, a meteorite fell on the outskirts of Geeze Union’s capital.

CA: But to make this happen, you have to look at each part in the chain -- the police, who else? GH: So that's the thing about law enforcement, it starts out with the police, they're the front end of the pipeline of justice, but they hand if off to the prosecutors, and the prosecutors hand it off to the courts, and the survivors of violence have to be supported by social services all the way through that. So you have to do an approach that pulls that all together. In the past, there's been a little bit of training of the courts, but they get crappy evidence from the police, or a little police intervention that has to do with narcotics or terrorism but nothing to do with treating the common poor person with excellent law enforcement, so it's about pulling that all together, and you can actually have people in very poor communities experience law enforcement like us, which is imperfect in our own experience, for sure, but boy, is it a great thing to sense that you can call 911 and maybe someone will protect you. CA: Gary, I think you've done a spectacular job of bringing this to the world's attention in your book and right here today. Thanks so much. Gary Haugen.</s>

Is anybody in!?” I woke up to the sound of door knocks and a sudden voice. Ha-? No good, no good. It seems I dozed off. But still, what a horrible dream. It’s been a while since I’ve had a flashback to the dark history of my old life. Today is a fixed holiday for the shop, so Mum and Dad are at the market buying ingredients. My sister Timu is apparently out playing with Pervert (Nielson). Right now I’m at home alone taking care of the house. And on a day off like this, a sudden visitor came in the early afternoon. Who could it be? All the regular customers know that we’re off today. Even if it’s a customer that didn’t know, there’s a sign out front, so they should’ve noticed but... While feeling confused about this, I stood up and headed to the door. And when I opened the door, there was... A beautiful face like a work of art. Incredibly clear white skin. Long hair that shone gold. A beauty with such perfect proportions that even a first-rate model would pale in defeat. And finally, what drew the eyes more than any of that, were the distinctive pointed ears... Right; there stood the typical fantasy being, an elf. “E-, Elf...” “I am indeed an elf. My name is Remilia. There’s a little something I’d like to inquire about, you see...” “Elf. IT HAS COOOOOME!” My excitement showing no signs of receding, I hugged Remilia and began touching her body all over without restraint. Aaah~ This is an elf’s body? It’s sooo soft! Arms, legs, hips, breast; I diligently rubbed and hugged each part. “O-, Oi. W-, What are you doing all of a sudden!” I ignored Remilia, and hugging her more tightly, I began to sniff. Sniff, sniff~ S-, So this is the scent of an elf...? What a complex fragrance! I can’t stand this. I can’t stop. Hahh, hahh, elf. Hahh, hahh, elf. “O-, Oi, stop it! What are you thinking!” “Hahh, hahh, Remilia. Smells so good...” “Cut it out. Let go! ...Mu! You’re quite strong despite your looks.” Hahh, hahh, Remilia. You’re the best! My excitement further escalated, and I began to lick those finely pointed ears. “H-, Hyaan! Y-, YOU!” “Hyaaahoooo!” After having my fill of Remilia, I parted from her and dashed outside the shop. And then, as I looked into the sky, I recalled my previous life in Japan. I had faith that this sky was connected to the one in Japan, as I took a deep breath. And then...</s>

It was only a childhood friend, it will never really be developing into lovers or more... It was more than a friend yet less than lover. Only dreaming about RPG games, not even interested in relationships, not to mention the one at a long time ago. Therefore, I know he’s not interested in romance or anything about that subject... surely... I inscribed all my resentment for him on my smartphone and sent it to him. ⟦Hey!!! Why did you leave me behind!!⟧ I wonder if he noticed my message about 「Right to do whatever you want」. And then.... on a date... together.... Well, I didn’t mind as long as you pay me back by treat me to some drink. I didn’t notice the message he sent. The drink was yen by the way. ⟦Ah, sorry, I forgot... m(_ _)m⟧ Oh, I just noticed it... I guess the yen energy drink finally started to kick in...? Well. he was not short on cash, yet he was quite the cheapskate. Apart from what is necessary, he didn’t really spend on anything else.

Anyway, I have to reply soon. ⟦As a punishment, I should be treated to a deluxe lunch box!⟧ Ah, Somehow I started to daydreaming about it... That’s something I’d like to probably.

This contingent seems to be quite lucky, and it has not sustained any casualties, even though dozens of peacekeepers have been killed in Liberia. And yes, all of those people killed were male. Many of the women are married with children, and they say the hardest part of their deployment was being kept away from their children. I accompanied these women on their patrols, and watched as they walked past men, many who passed very lewd comments incessantly. And when I asked one of the women about the shock and awe response, she said, "Don't worry, same thing back home. We know how to deal with these fellows," and ignored them. In a country ravaged by violence against women, Indian peacekeepers have inspired many local women to join the police force. Sometimes, when the war is over and all the film crews have left, the most inspiring stories are the ones that float just beneath the radar. I came back to India and nobody was interested in buying the story. And one editor told me that she wasn't interested in doing what she called "manual labor stories." In 2007 and 2009 I did stories on the Delhi Fire Service, the DFS, which, during the summer, is probably the world's most active fire department. They answer more than 5,000 calls in just two months. And all this against incredible logistical odds, like heat and traffic jams. Something amazing happened during this shoot. Due to a traffic jam, we were late in getting to a slum, a large slum, which had caught fire. As we neared, angry crowds attacked our trucks and stoned them, by hundreds of people all over the place. These men were terrified, as the mob attacked our vehicle. But nonetheless, despite the hostility, firefighters left the vehicle and successfully fought the fire. Running the gauntlet through hostile crowds, and some wearing motorbike helmets to prevent injury. Some of the local people forcibly took away the hoses from the firemen to put out the fire in their homes. Now, hundreds of homes were destroyed. But the question that lingered in my mind was, what causes people to destroy fire trucks headed to their own homes? Where does such rage come from? And how are we responsible for this? 45 percent of the 14 million people who live in Delhi live in unauthorized slums, which are chronically overcrowded. They lack even the most basic amenities. And this is something that is common to all our big cities.</s>

What on earth have I been doing...? When I had come back to my senses, I noticed that Remilia’s face was bright red, and that the tip of a sword was pointed right in front of my eyes. “Hiee-, I-, I’m sorry. I’m very sorry, h-, hey don’t stab me!” The sword shone with a black lustre and seemed to be very sharp. Is it a famous sword? E-, Even though she’s an elf, she’s not using a bow, is she. Or so I was thinking, when the tip of the sword began to draw closer and closer. “Uwahh! W-, Wait a moment, wait. You’re stabbing me!” “Hmph, you’re rude... I’ll have you die!” “Hi-, h-, hwaaaah, I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Wahh-, they were lying when they said that death would cure stupidity, weren’t theyyy. I died once, but I’m not cured at alll!

Hic-, wahh, hii-, wahhhh, don’t stab meee!” I begged her as tears ran from my eyes, without paying attention to how I looked. When I did, perhaps my desperation was conveyed to Remilia, because the bloodthirst in her eyes weakened. “―Tsk. The next time will cost you your life!” “Y-, Yes. I’m sorry. I’m sorry.” I-, It seems I somehow got her to forgive me. Remilia is too scary. Ahh~ But still, my old disease relapsed. Even though I thought I was cured― How dreadful. Is this the so-called charm of an elf? In my old life I died from jumping in front of a truck, and in this life I almost died from sexually harassing an elf. There really should be a limit to stupidity. “And so, what was it that you wanted to ask me?” Fixing gears, I invited Remilia into the shop, and asked her about her original goal. “Umu. The truth is, last month I assumed office as Chief of the Capital’s Public Safety Force, but these last few days, an ominous eddy of mana in the north-west was detected from the Capital.” “An ominous mana...?”</s>

They were roasting meat on a wooden spit in a stone pit on the ground. “Oh, it smells so good! I knew it was good to have an outdoor BBQ! What’s more, it’s over charcoal, I know! ...... Hol’up! Aren’t we talking about the rooftop fire ban or anything like that just a moment ago?!” “What’s up, Naoya?” “Hold on, Barbera-chan, let’s cook this properly before we eat it, okay?” “...... I want to transform.” “Oh, are you sure? Do you think this will be enough for you when you take dragon form?” “Well, of course, it’s only rabbit meat, it’s not that much! It’s only one bite when you turn into a dragon! -It’s not about that!” Barbera tilts her head in confusion at my outburst. Chloe is also a bit nervous, and Anna-san is smiling. The rooftop of the Aion Mall Otherworld Store was different from the rooftop of the Aion Mall Kasugano where I was. The rooftop parking lot was dirt. Just like the parking lot on the ground. I wondered how hard it was to carry dirt to the rooftop, and if magic was used to build it in the first place. Though the rooftop parking lot was dirt, the escalators, elevator entrances, and the exhaust vents of the food court were normal, which was somewhat surrealistic. By the way, the ramp from the ground to the rooftop was made of concrete. If that’s the case, the rooftop should be concrete, too. “Calm down, calm down. This is a different world. This is not the Aion Mall in Japan, but the Aion Mall Otherworldly Store. This is normal. It’s acceptable.” I told myself that. These three girls seem to be having a good time. Although they are very outdoorsy for a girls’ night out. I sat down on a wooden chair that was probably left empty for me. The chair was just a log sliced into a circle and placed on the ground. No worries, we have chairs like this in Japan, too. It was just a little wild, and it would be very strange to have it on the rooftop of the Aion Mall. “Okay, I accept it. I accepted it. I accepted everything. Well, I’ve never had rabbit meat before, so I wonder what it tastes like!” There’s no point in rambling on and there’s no answer. Since I already have an idea about it, I’m just going to open up and enjoy it. I’m sure it will be fun to have a BBQ on the rooftop of the Aion Mall! I wish they did that in Japan too! Hahaha! “Here you go, Barbera-chan. Enjoy this.” “This looks good too! Come on, Naoya, taste the meat of the rabbit I hunted for you!” “Ah, thank you, Chloe.” Anna-san offers Barbera and Chloe offers me the meat on a skewer. Barbera took a bite of the still-sizzling meat, without care.</s>

Seriously? Do I have a chance?!” He opened the second floor’s door and rushed inside while saying that. He didn’t let Finia’s hand go during that. Rather, his fingers seemed like they were brushing her hand. “Ah well, I was ordered to protect Lady Letina undercover, but I didn’t expect you would be the one who’d get attacked.” “Guard Lady Letina...Who ordered that?” “I mean, naturally it’s Marquis Yowi. His beloved daughter transferred to a place where there’s someone dangerous, so it’s natural he would worry.” He pulled Finia along and ran in the hallway while explaining that to her. “Wait, what about Lady Letina?!” “Don’t worry, I already took measures. My comrade is securing her safety now.” With that, Finia remembered that Letina was summoned by a teacher earlier. She made a guess that that teacher must’ve been his comrade. “Your comrade... Could it be teacher Mayer?” “Correct. It means that before Lady Letina even made a move, Lord Marquis was already on it. It was about his beloved daughter’s wedding, so of course, he would do preliminary investigations.” “A-As expected of a doting parent... No, never mind.” “Hahaha, I’ll pretend I didn’t hear it.” “Please do.” While they were talking, they heard footsteps from behind. As Finia turned around, she saw the students were chasing them after getting back up. “They are chasing us! Should we take them on here?” “Sorry, I’m bad at fights.” “A-And you’re still a guard?!” “The best guard is who influences the target so they don’t attack them.” Sullivan smiled back at Finia’s questions, then opened a random room and rushed inside. There was a girl in the middle of changing inside, but he ran past her after giving her a glance. “Huh! Ah, ueh?!” As the girl was at a loss for words due to confusion, Sullivan casually greeted her, while Finia also decided to do so and pass by. Leaving that girl behind, the two once again jumped off a window. Since it was the second floor this time, it wasn’t that high up so they just landed on the ground. They did a roll on the ground to diffuse the impact and they ran away from the dorm grounds. Cain, who overlooked that from the spiral corridor, punched the rail with a frustrated expression. Being saved by Sullivan, Finia was guided to a cheap inn in the city. It was apparently an inn that he was familiar with and there was no fear of betrayal. “Sorry for taking you to this dirty place, young lady.” “My name is Finia.” “Yeah, I know.” Thinking back, if he was Letina’s guard, he should naturally know about Finia who had the same job. In the first place, if he was related to the Marquis, he should know about Nicole too who used to be in a party with Letina, so knowing Finia as a related party wouldn’t be strange either. “Sorry, but stay and hide here for some time.”</s>

Today, I came to the imperial capital together with Peris. Over the past few months, I often strolled around the capital with Peris when I had time. It was done for the sake of shopping and memorizing the food. I guided her to the places, where I considered the food to be good and had her remember the taste. Peris looked human thanks to my barrier, but it didn’t go well at first. After all, she couldn’t say anything except for「gumomo」. I had no problems with that, but others did. I performed as her interpreter until she finally learned the language. Gon professionally taught her the language, and coupled with her thirst for knowledge, she grasped it in no time. Right now, she is asking the cook behind the counter about the recipes, knife handling, and seasoning, trying to raise her cooking skills. A lot of stall owners think of her of as a glutton, even recently, in one of the street stalls 「Girl, it is all right to be gluttonous, but you should lose some weight」[] she was told that with a bitter smile. According to Gon, Peris is one of a kind beauty, but that doesn’t change the fact that she looks like a small plump dragon. If she is as beautiful as Gon claims, I think about asking him to teach her human transformation. I finished this round of shopping in the capital and stuffed everything in the infinite storage. We usually buy enough food to feed lots of mouths, so the shop owners often give us discounts. Also, it seems that Gon and Peris established some kind of a deep bond with all of the stall owners. I couldn’t even understand what they were talking about. The shopping trip was prolonged and the most of the day already passed. Coincidentally, there was a high-class-looking hotel nearby, so we decided to visit the restaurant there. As we closed in on the restaurant, we found out that, regretfully, it was closed today. However, it was noisy inside. Just when I thought that it was some kind of private party, I discovered an unexpected person. The owner of 「Miraya」in the red light district, Akima. 「Ara, Rinos-chan, it’s been a while! What are you doing here? 」「It’s been a while. I thought of eating here, but it is closed. What brings you here? 」「Isn’t it obvious? The slave market! 」 The place that usually acts as a restaurant was turned into the slave market. Apparently, she often shows her face in such gatherings to fish for new workers for her establishment. This time, she acquired quite a few gems and went outside to complete the procedures. 「The normal slaves are already sold. It is about time for crime slaves to went on stage」</s>

We were hungry. And that's when the girl in the blue uniform came to my village with the United Nations to feed the children. As she handed me my porridge, I asked her why she was there, and without hesitation, she said, "As Africans, we must uplift all the people of Africa." I had absolutely no idea what she meant. But her words stuck with me. Two years later, famine hit my country for the second time. My grandmother had no choice but to send me to the city to live with an aunt I had never met before. So at the age of 10, I found myself in school for the very first time. And there, at the city school, I would experience what it was to be unequal. You see, in the village, we were all equal. But in the eyes and the minds of the other kids, I was not their equal. I couldn't speak English, and I was way behind in terms of reading and writing. But this feeling of inequality would get even more complex. Every school holiday spent back in the village with my grandmother made me consciously aware of the inequalities this incredible opportunity had created within my own family. Suddenly, I had much more than the rest of my village. And in their eyes, I was no longer their equal. I felt guilty. But I thought about the girl in the blue uniform, and I remember thinking, "That's who I want to be -- someone like her, someone who uplifts other people." This childhood experience led me to the United Nations, and to my current role with UN Women, where we are addressing one of the greatest inequalities that affects more than half of the world's population -- women and girls. Today, I want to share with you a simple idea that seeks to uplift all of us together. Eight months ago, under the visionary leadership of Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, head of UN Women, we launched a groundbreaking initiative called HeForShe, inviting men and boys from around the world to stand in solidarity with each other and with women, to create a shared vision for gender equality. This is an invitation for those who believe in equality for women and men, and those who don't yet know that they believe. The initiative is based on a simple idea: that what we share is much more powerful than what divides us. We all feel the same things. We all want the same things, even when those things sometimes remain unspoken. HeForShe is about uplifting all of us, women and men together. It's moving us towards an inflection point for gender equality.</s>

Grau! Wuff!” Leo used smaller explosions this time to lift the dirt around the hole. It seemed like she was going to do this several times to spread the dirt, so that it would fill the hole again. That did not seem very efficient... Still, after doing this a few times, the hole was half filled. “Well, that should be enough. Good job, Leo. Thank you.” “Wuff.” If she kept doing this, she would just create a lot of smaller holes all over the place. And so I would just ignore the crater that was still very visible. As long as the troll pieces weren’t visible, it was fine. I petted Leo to show how thankful I was. And once she had settled down, I strapped the baggage onto her back again. “That took a lot of time... Uh, could you run just a little faster, Leo?” “Wou. Woou?” After climbing onto Leo and looking at my watch, I asked if she could possibly run a little faster. Leo nodded in agreement, but she looked worried about me falling off. “Don’t worry. I’ll be holding on tight. I want to reach Range village today.” “Wou!” We had lost time doing various things, and at this rate, we might not reach Range village until tomorrow. But I wanted to reach Range village today, and give them the Ramogi... Besides, we didn’t really pack well for camping outdoors... We would not be able to pitch tents like we did during the exploration of the fenrir forest. So I would not be able to sleep comfortably. “Wuff-wuff... Wuff!” “Woah!” But just as Leo signaled with a bark, she began to dash, and I felt as if my body was floating upwards. We were moving so fast that the scenery around me was a blur. This was worse than I expected... However, I should be fine, as long as I hold on tight. Though, I would have probably fallen off already if it weren’t for my sword training... “Hmm?” “Wuff?” After running like this for some time, and when my arms were starting to hurt, I saw that two horses were trotting up ahead. As we got closer, they noticed us as well, and so Leo slowed down. “Is that...Mr. Hannes? There are two on one horse, and then an armored soldier on the other... Ah, it’s Phillip.” “Wuff-wuff?” While we were still too far away to see them clearly, I could tell from the back that it was the trio who had left the mansion. Since Phillip, who was dressed in soldier’s armor, was riding alone, there were two horses in all. “Well...could you approach them slowly, so that you don’t startle the horses?” “Wuff!” I said to Leo, who had been looking at me questioningly. If Leo ran at her fastest, we would catch up with them in an instant, but might frighten the horses.</s>

How they wheedle their way into the collective psyche without us even knowing, and how that should happen. I explored with actually dressing up as the celebrities myself. There's me as Diana -- I look like the mass murderer Myra Hindley, I think, in this one. . And me as the Queen. I then continued on to make a whole body of work about Marilyn -- the biggest icon of all -- and trying to titillate by shooting through doorways and shutters and so on and so forth, and only showing certain angles to create a reality that, obviously, is completely constructed. This is the look-alike, so the crafting elements of this is completely enormous. She looks nothing like Marilyn, but by the time we've made her up and put wigs and makeup on, she looks exactly like Marilyn, to the extent that her husband couldn't recognize her -- or recognize this look-alike -- in these photographs, which I find quite interesting. So, all this work is getting shown in art galleries. Then I made a book. I was also making a TV series for the BBC at the time. Stills from the TV series went into this book. But there was a real legal problem because it looks real, but how do you get over that? Because obviously it's making a comment about our culture right now: that we can't tell what's real. How do we know when we're looking at something whether it's real or not? So, from my point of view, it's important to publish it, but at the same time it does cause a confusion -- intentional on my behalf, but problematic for any outlet that I'm working with. So a big disclaimer is put on everything that I do, and I made narratives about all the European or Brit celebrities and comments about our public figures. You know, what does Tony Blair get up to in private with his fashion guru? And also dealing with the perceptions that are put about Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, the links that were put about pre-Iraq war. And what is going to happen to the monarchy? Because obviously the British public, I think, would prefer William to Charles on the throne. And it's that wish, or that desire, that I suppose I'm dealing with in my work. I'm not really interested in the celebrity themselves. I'm interested in the perception of the celebrity. And with some look-alikes, they are so good you don't know whether they're real or not.</s>

These strange artifacts are designed to compensate for the undesirable effects of scale and production process. At the outset, AT&T had wanted to set the phone books in Helvetica, but as my friend Erik Spiekermann said in the Helvetica movie, if you've seen that, the letters in Helvetica were designed to be as similar to one another as possible. This is not the recipe for legibility at small size. It looks very elegant up on a slide. I had to disambiguate these forms of the figures as much as possible in Bell Centennial by sort of opening the shapes up, as you can see in the bottom part of that slide. So now we're on to the mid-'80s, the early days of digital outline fonts, vector technology. There was an issue at that time with the size of the fonts, the amount of data that was required to find and store a font in computer memory. It limited the number of fonts you could get on your typesetting system at any one time. I did an analysis of the data, and found that a typical serif face you see on the left needed nearly twice as much data as a sans serif in the middle because of all the points required to define the elegantly curved serif brackets. The numbers at the bottom of the slide, by the way, they represent the amount of data needed to store each of the fonts. So the sans serif, in the middle, sans the serifs, was much more economical, 81 to 151. "Aha," I thought. "The engineers have a problem. Designer to the rescue." I made a serif type, you can see it on the right, without curved serifs. I made them polygonal, out of straight line segments, chamfered brackets. And look, as economical in data as a sans serif. We call it Charter, on the right. So I went to the head of engineering with my numbers, and I said proudly, "I have solved your problem." "Oh," he said. "What problem?" And I said, "Well, you know, the problem of the huge data you require for serif fonts and so on." "Oh," he said. "We solved that problem last week. We wrote a compaction routine that reduces the size of all fonts by an order of magnitude. You can have as many fonts on your system as you like." "Well, thank you for letting me know," I said. Foiled again. I was left with a design solution for a nonexistent technical problem. But here is where the story sort of gets interesting for me. I didn't just throw my design away in a fit of pique. I persevered.</s>

They had been informed that they could utilize whatsoever methods necessary to be at the appointed location on time. Everyone was free to make their own choices.

Only the Belballs who had lost their Mana would most likely perish. “Well, to be honest, I likely would have done the same thing. After all, they didn’t seem like the type of people to listen to what others told them.” Totoara, who had been wearing a solemn expression just moments ago, stated in a playful tone with a smile on her face. The girl’s sudden shift of expression caught Merc completely off guard. “Doesn’t this imply that refusing to take the carriage and instead opting to walk was the better option?” “That’s right.

Innovation by her when she was in class 10th: a washing machine-cum-exercising machine. Mr. Kharai who is a physically challenged person, one and a half foot height, only. But he has modified a two-wheeler so that he can get autonomy and freedom and flexibility. This innovation is from the slums of Rio. And this person, Mr. Ubirajara. We were talking about, my friends in Brazil, how we scale up this model in China and Brazil. And we have a very vibrant network in China, particularly, but also emerging in Brazil and other parts of the world. This stand on the front wheel, you will not find on any cycle. India and China have the largest number of cycles. But this innovation emerged in Brazil. The point is, none of us should be parochial, none of us should be so nationalistic to believe that all good ideas will come only from our country. No, we have to have the humility to learn from knowledge of economically poor people, wherever they are. And look at this whole range of cycle-based innovations: cycle that's a sprayer, cycle that generates energy from the shocks on the road. I can't change the condition of the road, but I can make the cycle run faster. That is what Kanak Das has done. And in South Africa, we had taken our innovators, and many of us had gone there share with the colleagues in South Africa as to how innovation can become a means of liberation from the drudgery that people have. And this is a donkey cart which they modified. There's an axle here, of 30, 40 kg, serving no purpose. Remove it, the cart needs one donkey less. This is in China. This girl needed a breathing apparatus. These three people in the village sat down and decided to think, "How do we elongate the life of this girl of our village?" They were not related to her, but they tried to find out, "How can we use ... " They used a cycle, they put together a breathing apparatus. And this breathing apparatus now saved the life, and she's very welcome. There's a whole range of innovations that we have. A car, which runs on compressed air with six paisa per kilometer.

But with Africa, let's start being careful about this. And Emeka and I have had these discussions. We have to move away from what's called "the curse of the commodities." Because it's not about oil, it's not about commodities. For Africa to truly be sustainable, we have to move beyond to other industries. So let's unpack those very quickly, and I'm going to move through these very, very, very fast because I can see that clock counting down. What else is going on there? Egypt. Egypt is launching a first large industrial zone -- 2.8 billion investment. The announcement just came out the last few weeks. Close to the Mediterranean, near Alexandria -- textiles, petrochemicals. It's being managed by a Singaporean-based management company. So they want to emerge as an industrial powerhouse across the industries -- away from oil. Let's look at agriculture. Let's look at forestry. What's going on there? In Tanzania last week, we had the launch of the East African Organic Produce Standard. Again, gathering together farmers, gathering together stakeholders in East Africa to get standards for organic produce. Better prices. It ties in with small-scale farmers in terms of no pesticides, no fertilizers. Again, opportunity to tackle markets to get that higher price. Uganda: the New Forest Company, replanting and redeveloping their forests. Why is that important? As the energy needs are met and electricity is needed [we will need] poles for rolling out electricity. But here is the sweetener in the deal. They're going to be tapping into carbon credits. Let's go back to Nigeria. The banking sector has undergone tremendous transformation, from over 80 banks to 25 banks. Strengthening of the system. But what's going on there? Only 10 percent of the country is banked. The largest population in Africa is in Nigeria. 135 million-plus people. Think about that. There are only 700 ATMs in the country. Opportunity. The same for telecoms across the country. Now let's look at the continent as a whole. People look at the roads, for example, and they'd say, "Angola: 90 percent of roads are untarred. Ah, problem!" It's more expensive to transport goods. Prices of goods go up, inflation is affected. Nigeria: 70 percent of roads are untarred. Zambia: 80 percent. In general, more than 50 percent of roads are untarred.</s>

But I voluntarily dropped myself into the throng of animals and finished them off with a single blow, beginning with the nearest one. Obviously, no matter how many I eliminated, there will always be more. I consequently gradually changed my fighting style from one-hit kills to swinging my giant sword and blasting away the enemies as fast as I can. In any case, while sweeping away the adversaries at random, I approached the Distinguishable Warrior step by step. “Why is it!? How could you pull off such a thing! Doesn’t it hurt!” It was no wonder that my body would be damaged by the counterattacks of my opponents as I engaged in this kind of fighting style. However, if I retreated at this stage, I will be overpowered by the sheer size of the force, and this Demon King known as Distinguishable Warrior will most likely not die unless all of his distinct bodies are destroyed. When I was about meters away from the Distinguishable Warrior, the number of enemies released by the Distinguishable Warrior and my speed of annihilation were balanced, preventing me from progressing further. “Hu, hi. Hahahahaha! Looks like you can’t advance any further! Why don’t you just keep on crushing them...” Then there was only one course of action. “‘I am the one who leaps through the void, the sword with boundless forms. I seek the flower of life, the fountain of blood. Let it disperse in the dust of the long, acute blade. Until I attain what I seek, incessantly cut my adversaries with the blade. Outer Skill・ Mujin Noryoiki’.” In the creation of the great sword, I forcibly intermixed three skills and wielded the produced sword in my hand. Although its handle was that of a great sword, it had no cutting edge. Despite the fact that it was only a handle, its weight was far heavier than that of an ordinary great sword. The instant it emerged, my surroundings were enveloped in mist. And the mist surrounding me began to move rapidly the precise second that sword was flashed horizontally by my hand, scattering all of the adversaries who had been about me aside from the main body of the Distinguishable Warrior. “Huh?” The Distinguishable Warrior’s body was gradually carved with wounds after that. “W-What the hell is this!?

They had to look at computer projections for the housing market. They had to get complicated CDO-squared in order to bundle debt together and make debt look as if it were actually a profitable asset. They had to prepare a case to get rating agencies to give it a AAA, though in many cases, they had virtually bribed the rating agencies. And they also, of course, had to get people to accept these so-called assets and pay money for them even though they were highly vulnerable. Or take a farmer today. I take the farm manager of today as very different from the farmer of 1900. So it hasn't just been the spread It's also been the upgrading of tasks like lawyer and doctor and what have you that have made demands on our cognitive faculties. But I've talked about education and employment. Some of the habits of mind that we have developed over the 20th century have paid off in unexpected areas. I'm primarily a moral philosopher. I merely have a holiday in psychology, and what interests me in general is moral debate. Now over the last century, in developed nations like America, moral debate has escalated because we take the hypothetical seriously, and we also take universals seriously and look for logical connections. When I came home in 1955 from university at the time of Martin Luther King, a lot of people came home at that time and started having arguments with their parents and grandparents. My father was born in 1885, and he was mildly racially biased. As an Irishman, he hated the English so much he didn't have much emotion for anyone else. But he did have a sense that black people were inferior. And when we said to our parents and grandparents, "How would you feel if tomorrow morning you woke up black?" they said that is the dumbest thing you've ever said. Who have you ever known who woke up in the morning -- -- that turned black? In other words, they were fixed in the concrete mores and attitudes they had inherited. They would not take the hypothetical seriously, and without the hypothetical, it's very difficult to get moral argument off the ground. You have to say, imagine you were in Iran, and imagine that your relatives all suffered from collateral damage even though they had done no wrong. How would you feel about that?</s>

It will just jump, in fact. And this very elastic property is also very important. And you also see a bit these properties of these three segments of the leg as pantograph. Now, what's interesting is that this quite dynamic gait is obtained purely in open loop, meaning no sensors, no complex feedback loops. And that's interesting, because it means that just the mechanics already stabilized this quite rapid gait, and that really good mechanics already basically simplify locomotion. To the extent that we can even disturb a bit locomotion, as you will see in the next video, where we can for instance do some exercise where we have the robot go down a step, and the robot will not fall over, which was a surprise for us. This is a small perturbation. I was expecting the robot to immediately fall over, because there are no sensors, no fast feedback loop. But no, just the mechanics stabilized the gait, and the robot doesn't fall over. Obviously, if you make the step bigger, and if you have obstacles, you need the full control loops and reflexes and everything. But what's important here is that just for small perturbation, the mechanics are right. And I think this is a very important message from biomechanics and robotics to neuroscience, saying don't underestimate to what extent the body already helps locomotion. Now, how does this relate to human locomotion? Clearly, human locomotion is more complex than cat and salamander locomotion, but at the same time, the nervous system of humans is very similar to that of other vertebrates. And especially the spinal cord is also the key controller for locomotion in humans. That's why, if there's a lesion of the spinal cord, this has dramatic effects. The person can become paraplegic or tetraplegic. This is because the brain loses this communication with the spinal cord. Especially, it loses this descending modulation to initiate and modulate locomotion. So a big goal of neuroprosthetics is to be able to reactivate that communication using electrical or chemical stimulations. And there are several teams in the world that do exactly that, especially at EPFL. My colleagues Grégoire Courtine and Silvestro Micera, with whom I collaborate. But to do this properly, it's very important to understand how the spinal cord works, how it interacts with the body, and how the brain communicates with the spinal cord. This is where the robots and models that I've presented today will hopefully play a key role towards these very important goals. Thank you. Bruno Giussani: Auke, I've seen in your lab other robots that do things like swim in pollution and measure the pollution while they swim.</s>

Nostalgia filled her heart as a maid guided her to Solomon’s office. At first, she was slightly afraid she would once again be surrounded by the maids and be used as a dressing doll, but she relaxed seeing that she arrived at the office without any of that happening. After knocking on the door and waiting for a reply, the maid opened the door together with an 「Excuse me.」 When Mira entered the office, she heard the door silently being closed behind her. 「Welcome back. It’s been around a week, I guess. And well, did you find him?」 Only Mira and Solomon were inside the office. Solomon’s tone was the one he used amongst friends as he asked Mira, while at the same time throwing away the papers he was working on. 「Lamentably, he was not there but I found some traces. I’m positive those should prove to be a valuable lead.」 Saying that, Mira opened her item list and took out a few select items she had found inside the castle of the Ancient Temple. Solomon roughly pushed the remaining papers to the corners of his desk, then began examining some of the items Mira had begun piling up there. 「The rules to reincarnate an undead bird? And this is the method to cremate an immortal king, the location of the four season’s spirits... Just what is he trying to do?」「I think you’ll know once you see this.」 Unable to arrive at an answer with the initial information Mira gave him, Solomon knitted his brow as he received the next item from Mira, examining it. It was a list detailing the effects of different medicines and healing items when applied to a Carved Seal of the Death. There were all sorts of common items in the list, as well as high-level ones, but most of them had not been successful. There was only one item that had nothing written in the results field, the Brilliant Chalice. Having been in this world for thirty years and having enjoyed it as a game for some time before that as well, Solomon was able to arrive at a conclusion with that information alone. 「Could it be that he’s looking for the Brilliant Chalice of Divine Decree?」「Yes, I believe that’s the case.」 Mira nodded while replying in agreement. Afterward, Mira told Solomon what had happened on the sixth floor of the castle in the Ancient Temple Nevrapolis. 「Could it be a dear person to him...」「Presumably.」 Their talk finished, they stayed in silence as they thought and worried about their good friend, Soul Howl. While they did not know what kind of change had happened to his mental state, it was clear that Soul Howl was wandering around everywhere, looking for the Brilliant Chalice. 「Since I couldn’t find him there, I guess it means he found some sort of lead and is continuing with his search. If we want to find him, I think it’s best if we figure out the secret of the Brilliant Chalice from these items and then follow his footsteps. What do you think?」</s>

I took the cup that was found in the remainders of the burned inn and drank the content quickly to hide my real thoughts. A slight sweetness spread in my mouth. Come to think of it, It’s been a while since I drank something other than water. “It’s delicious. Thank you.” “I’m glad you like it.” She smiled softly as if relieved. Damn, the damage of her smile is quite something! She’s probably the archetype Not long after, Mazell’s parents approached us. It seems like the knights have taken over their job of distributing the cooked meat. I don’t know what to talk about with Lily, so perfect timing! “Viscount-sama, I am truly grateful...” “The truth is I have always been thinking that I do not deserve my position due to my young age, so please, stop calling me ‘viscount-sama’. Not to mention, I do not think that I deserve your respect as I have made a mistake and need to apologize to you.” “No, sir! You have done nothing that you need to apologize for...” “No. I made you and your family leave the village.” At that time, I was completely mentally and physically exhausted so when I saw villagers’ behavior, I ended up exploding. I could have handled the situation better. You sure regret it when things are done. But Mazell’s father shook his head with a bitter expression. Is that expression because of his consideration of me being noble or is it because up until now he’s been forcing himself? I don’t know. “No, leaving the village might be better for us.” for letting Mazell go to the capital against the village chief’s will by doing forced labor. Seriously? Since Alea Village is remote to the point that there are no towns near it, the village chief may feel like he can do whatever he wants. To be honest, I thought that he would show some restraint as Alea is a village that the pilgrims stopped by on their journey, but no, I was wrong. I need to make sure to report the dictatorship of the chief to the kingdom. “Ah, I have forgotten that I have yet to introduce myself. I am Ali Hearthing, this is my wife, Anna Hearthing, and my daughter, Lily Hearthing.” “It is pleasant to meet you. Once again, I am Welner von Zeavert. I am Mazell’s friend.” Actually, as a noble, I shouldn’t be this respectful to commoners like them but I want them to stop giving that overly respectful attitude, so I purposely pointed out the fact that “Thank you for the gifts you have given us before.” “Ah, yes but I would like to apologize for only greeting you now” ‘I apologize that it is a shabby gift’ In this world, when nobles hold a banquet, normally, they give the leftover food to the commoners and the commoners accept it happily. It’s not strange to see commoners or to be more specific, the poor commoners gathering in the back gate of a noble that’s holding a banquet in hope of receiving the leftover.</s>

Why didn’t she realize that if she walked around the downtown area like this, she would run into people she knew? She regretted it now; she should have at least started working after her training period. She was at a loss because she couldn’t avoid people who knew Sheila, nor could she hide her face like a suspicious person. Glasses were the only thing that could hide her face without any sense of discomfort, but if it was like that, then she would resemble the serious Sheila of the pharmacy more. She had already deceived regular customers such as Thomas, Roy, and Jeremy with her stranger strategy. For Sheila, who wasn’t good at lying, it was mentally enduring to fool them into thinking she was a different person. I should have properly told Amy that I wanted to take the rest of the month off.... She couldn’t refuse when Amy requested her, and Sheila had promised her that she would come to work when she had a day off, which would be her first holiday since joining the corps.... which was tomorrow. That alone is going to make me feel worn out since it’ll keep me busy on my day off..... If the patrolling soldiers also came to the pharmacy.... It’s going to get more and more complicated.... She unknowingly let out a sigh at the headache. It was Isaac, who was also patrolling together with her, who overheard it. “You shouldn’t be distracted on your rounds.” At the reprimand, Sheila hurriedly straightened her posture. Surely, if she turned her head down, she would miss the anomaly that might be happening somewhere else. “I’m sorry, Isaac-sama. It was thoughtless of me to be distracted by personal matters when I didn’t know what would happen.” Isaac smiled lightly and nodded back at Sheila, who immediately apologized. “Sheila, you don’t need to call me “-sama.” Call me the same way you call Zola. You guys too.” Isaac looked around at the academy students. Both Dilliam and Hyderion bowed their heads in embarrassment. Because of his excessively refreshing character, he looked as thoughtless as his brother Axe, but he was surprisingly stern, perhaps because of his age. The smile on his cheeks showed the strength of a man who seemed to be dependable. “Nonetheless, I hope nothing happened to you guys during your training....” Isak muttered in a muffled voice as he walked away. Sheila tilted her head. Even though trivial incidents such as pickpocketing and fights had already occurred, his words were somewhat strange. “――Does that mean there are some disturbing incidents going on?” The question, which she had asked without thinking, seemed to strike a nerve. Isaac’s profile clearly stiffened.</s>

Rather than liking me romantically, I’m more like a member of an idol group. You know, in my past life I heard about diehard fans buying several hundred CDs of their favorite idol. But man, as a rich noble, the scale that Orty operates on is in a whole other league. In the end, it seems that the debt I was wracking my brains over was nothing much to Orty. In that case, maybe it would be fine to just keep relying on him― wai-, as if it would be fine! At this rate Orty is going to become bankrupt because of me. It’s not like the money just grows on trees. I’m not a sinful woman, okay. I’m happy that he’s helping me with money, but at this rate I’m just going to send him straight down the path of bankruptcy. No matter how much he spoils Orty and how much he loves Orty, even Orty’s dad would have to disown him at that point. “Orty, money isn’t something that you can just waste. Please stop thinking that you can just use it however you wish. That way of thinking will ruin you one day.” “M-, My deepest apologies. Then in that case, shall we destroy the restaurant upstairs to reduce the expenditure of our army?” GABOH-! O-, Oh no... That’s putting the cart before the horse then. I want to be a cook in the Royal Capital. Tilea, haven’t you forgotten the goal here? I got too carried away because of how ridiculous Orty’s money sense was, but I originally came here to borrow money from him. There was no need to lecture him on how to spend his money. “I see. Since cooking is your hobby, it would not do at all to destroy the restaurant.” “Wha-!? What did you say just now?” “Oh, as I said, it would not do to destroy the restaurant.” “No, before that.” “Since cooking is your hobby― ARRGH-, GUWAAHH!” Before I knew it, I had Orty’s face in a vice grip. I was so angry that I was just squeezing it. Orty screamed as his head creaked. Orty was groaning in pain... But I won’t forgive him! He said that my cooking was just a hobby! A professional like me, as a hobby!? “GAh, n-never would I, say such a thing... I-, I simply, ghh, ugh, wanted to say, that even busy on your road to conquest, gasp, you had even reached such, a level on the side― HOGGYAHH!” “Orty! Are you trying to say that I’m just cooking to kill time on the side?” His words poured more oil onto the fire, and my iron claw grew tighter. Orty ended up spasming into unconsciousness. Hmm, did I go a bit far? Since he made light of my cook’s spirit the blood kinda rushed to my head.</s>

However, I had not expected it to come today. I wasn’t even sure that the magic tool and reinforcements had functioned properly. “Which tribe was attacked?” ‘Our tribe. But don’t worry. We were able to stop them.’ “That’s a relief.” ‘Mister Mors was with us. And the magic tool and reinforcements you added really helped us.’ I took in a deep breath. So did Shia, who was listening beside me. We talked a little more after that before cutting the connection. Danton had to contact the other chiefs as well. He couldn’t waste any more time with us. We would be able to hear a more detailed report when we returned to his mansion. We hurriedly continued with our work. Just then, the chief came running towards us. “We should listen to the report of the dark wraith together.” The beastkin wolves all had communication bracelets that were connected to each other. And so Danton was going to use them to explain the situation to them all at once. Apparently, it was not just Danton. But several mansions had been attacked simultaneously. Thankfully, they had all been successful in driving them back. ‘The enemy did not know about the magic tools or reinforcing of the walls. That is why the damage was so low.’ ‘But it was also because they were just scouting.’ Had they really come out to crush the beastkin, they would have sent stronger enemies to accompany the dark wraiths. The fact that they hadn’t, proved that they were just scouts. ‘But now that their scouting has failed, what will the enemy do now...’ “Either they will prepare a better scout team, or they will launch a real attack sooner than planned.” I said while we worked. I could feel that the other chiefs were nodding at this. Of course, it would be best if the enemy just gave up. However, it was really too much to hope for. The chiefs reminded each other to stay on their guard, and then the conversation ended. By then, we also had finished with our work. Shia looked relieved as she said, “It’s a good thing that the bell doesn’t ring right when we finish installing the magic tool.” “Indeed. However, this place has a high likelihood of being targeted. It could still ring at any time.” “Then how come this place wasn’t one of the settlements that were attacked?” Serulis said with a puzzled expression. “Perhaps it’s because Kathe is outside?” “Luchila is probably right! Kathe looks very strong.” “Well, she is very strong.” We talked about this as we left the mansion. We had to tell everything to Kathe as well. Kathe looked very lonely when we greeted her.</s>

A secret...” When I attempted to conceal the secret, Ichiko glards at me. “Fine then. You must reveal this to no one, okay?” I began expounding on the subject after saying so. All I disclosed was the functions of the “Eye of Law Analysis” and “Andon of the Magic Detector” and what can be performed with these functions, which I omitted from my previous discussion of the respective ten years. In concrete terms, the four skills that I had memorized up to today using the “Eye of Law Analysis” were ≪Mist Plosion≫, ≪Bewitching Mist≫, ≪Sharp Aqua Pillar≫, and ≪Circulation≫ as well as some skills such as ≪Mistbolt≫, ≪Mudbolt≫, and ≪Mud Barrier≫ employed by the monsters under my command. On top of these, I also analyzed some equipment such as The Iron Shackles of the Sealing Art I and so forth. The analysis results indicated that there was a syntax that was universal to all skills at the bottom tier and above that existed the syntax that determined the attributes, consumption, shape, range, and various other specifics of the skills. Furthermore, that was the syntax for the actual output of the skill in reality. So, once this level of knowledge was grasped, all that was left was for the user to piece together the syntax, which in the case of “White Binding Chain” included the syntax for converting mist into chains, ejecting them, and binding them together, as well as the effect of sealing the entangled opponent’s skill. Therefore, the creation and activation of the chain proved to be extremely arduous. “So that’s the result of your work?” “I guess you could say that.” Ichiko put on a preposterous countenance at my explanation. It was, without a doubt, an astounding skill. After all, once you knew what each syntax signified, you can freely create any skill you want. But that was not so easy to achieve. I hadn’t shared this with Ichiko yet, but the lowest layer syntax that all skills had in common was very tricky. What the lowest layer syntax indicated was the law that was the prerequisite or condition for acquiring that skill. Within lay a bizarre syntax that allowed usage of the skill by simply consuming HP, etc. Right. By nature, skills should be used by expending various other things. Then, where does the insufficient power flow from? At this point, I was reminded of one of the scenes from the past. That was, my Kurokirinoko did not work on the God of Calamity, who was not even in a defensive posture. Why did it fail? I considered the possibility that my attack power was simply inadequate against the God of Calamity’s defensive power, but the reaction I received at that time was nothing like that.</s>

Needless to say, it was the “Dragonformed” Tio. “Ugh... this is rather bad... for the love of, that was a nasty Breath... there’s no other way. Master, sorry about this.” Having forcibly broken through, Tio was basked in a large amount of beam whose toxin ended up aggravating her wounds. As such, judging she would be collapsed before she arrived at Ancadi, Tio apologized to Hajime for taking out from “Treasure Box” and crunched the vial of the special potion, the Holy Water, without permission. Although she had consumed a large amount of magic power from firing Breaths in succession, surpassing her body’s limit, and reinforcing her flight ability, she had now considerably recovered. Moreover, even though her wounds didn’t instantaneously healed, the toxin had been suppressed. Afterwards, she flew for several hours and she could finally see Ancadi in her view. If she kept flying any more than this, the people on the watchtower would be able to see Tio’s current appearance. For a moment, Tio wondered whether or not to release her dragon form. However, thinking it would surely be necessary for her to be in her dragonformed while she travels with Hajime, since the Demon race man named Freed was likely to still be alive, she decided to come clean about it. Also, her hidden town wasn’t something that could easily be found. Even if it was found by chance, the Ryuujin race would not go downed that easily. Besides, if it turned into the nightmare (persecution) just like five hundred years ago, Hajime would surely lend Tio his power if she asked for his help. After all, Hajime was sweet to his companion. While thinking so, she was finally only several kilometers away from Ancadi. From what she could see, the watchtower was in a commotion. Thus, because it would be a hassle to be attacked due to a misunderstanding, Tio made a detour towards the entrance gate and landed slightly away from it. Ancadi’s Soldiers moved towards Tio, who landed and created sand dust, with row formation. If one looked above the walls, many Soldiers were standing by with bow or magic array-carved staff in hand. The sand dust was clearing away. The Soldiers could be heard gulping from nervousness. However, what appeared from the sand was a beautiful, gold-eyed, black-haired woman who looked extremely exhausted, making the soldiers looked at each other in bewilderment.</s>

We weren’t familiar with that stuff, so if we suddenly barged in we’d only get in the way. Cloud also had his hands full with taking care of the orphanage children. It seems that he was receiving a hero treatment there because he defeated Goblins during his patrols. In Michelle’s head, it seemed to be already decided that we would eat the stall food, and she was dragging me by the hand with all her strength. Naturally, Finia, who was holding my other hand, was dragged along too. “Uncle, give us some chicken skewers!” “Sure thing. How many?” “Let’s see. There’s me, Lady Nicole and Lady Cortina’s share to consider too, so if we get six...” “Ten for me!” “Coming right up!” The skewer stall had quite a lot of chicken skewers. They were big enough that a normal girl would have gotten full with just one skewer. If you got two, you’d even have leftover snacks for dinner. So ordering ten of those was a bit too much, wasn’t it? I wasn’t much of a glutton myself. “Michelle, isn’t that too much? I’d have a hard time eating even one...” “It’s okay. I’ll eat all of these myself.” “.........Is that so.” Oh well, she played the second-biggest part in this time’s incident, so she probably spent a lot of energy during the process. Let’s just think of it like that. In my case, I’d be stuffed with two of them, and a third might make me vomit. Despite my fears, she showed us the gluttony suitable to a hero who managed to defeat over a hundred Goblins on her own.</s>

That Goddess was a lifesaver for her, too. It was natural for her to be curious as to what that person had to say to her best friend. Speaking of which, I had something to pass on to her. “Oh, right. About that. That Goddess asked me to hand this to you.” As asked, I handed the bracelet bestowed with strengthening magic to her. It was a bangle type bracelet with fine ornaments, covering the hand from wrist to elbow. It fit very firmly on the wrist, so it wouldn’t get in the way when firing a bow. “What’s this?” “After saying the keyword, it apparently grants physical strengthening. Up to over tenfold, can you believe it?” “Really? That’s amazing! What’s the keyword?” “Megingjord.” “Megi-” The moment she heard me say the keyword, she quickly equipped it and started to say it. Such a hasty girl, I haven’t even finished explaining yet! “There are demerits to it too. It seems you are simply borrowing the physical strength, so when you release it, you are assaulted by a sharp pain. Look what it did to me.” I lifted my trembling hands from the bath and showed them to her. To be honest, I was so sluggish now that even that simple action took all I had. Using this in an actual fight was quite dangerous. When the effect wore out, it would be impossible to keep on fighting. “It lasts for three minutes, and then ten minutes of intense pain. After that, you wouldn’t be able to move properly due to muscle pain.” “So the fact that you are like that... You tested it, right?” “Ugh!?” Letina received gifted education, so her insight, or should I say logic, was quite good. Though I’d like it if she didn’t show it during moments like this. “Nicole, you can be quite thoughtless sometimes unlike how mature you seem to be, huh?” “This happened because that white thing cut short the explanation.” No way I’d call her “God” after that. Just “white thing” was good enough for her. “Then..! Then, let us massage you this time!” “Wah?” Michelle suddenly said something absurd. I mean, I understood the idea... But it wasn’t something my mind could accept. “You taught us how to massage earlier! It’s gonna be alright! I’ll make you feel good!” She grabbed me by the hands and mercilessly dragged me out of the bath. Then she lifted me like baggage and carried me towards the massage tables. Huh, wasn’t her strength already comparable to an adult? “Okay, let’s get to it!” “Prepare yourself!” Michelle approached me while wiggling her fingers. Letina also did the same from another direction with an amused expression. That aside, there was no way they learned how to massage just by listening to a few instructions of mine. They are probably going to mess up this and that. Rather, they most definitely will. But I had nowhere to run. Needless to say, my painful cries started to reverberate throughout the Beastmen bath.</s>

Good evening.” “You’re quite early, Mr. Takumi.” “I finished studying, Mr. Takumi.” I greeted them while drinking my tea. Ms. Claire was a little surprised to see me waiting here. Well, I had been quite busy during the past few days... But Tilura seemed to have been able to concentrate, unlike during the morning, and there was a look of accomplishment on her face. “Yes. I told myself it was so I could train, and I did my best.” “...If only you didn’t need that as an incentive... Well, you at least did well today.” As for Ms. Claire, she did not like that sword training was the goal here. But she had observed that Tilura had indeed studied hard, and so she had to be satisfied for now. “Mr. Takumi, I won’t have to study for a while, starting tomorrow!” “Is that true, Ms. Claire?” “Yes. After lunch, Tilura studied to a shocking degree, and finished several day’s worth of lessons. ...Of course, all the effort was for her sword training...” “Hahaha.” Then she must have believed my words and taken the bait. And look at the results. Indeed, even though she sometimes looked like she was having trouble while training, I could also tell that she was having fun. She really wanted to do it... “Because we’re going to start the new training that father talked about. I’m not going to let any studying get in the way!” “Ah, I see. So that’s why.” “That... I’ll be counting on you, Leo.” Tilura was very much looking forward to tomorrow’s training. And it happened to be something that required Leo’s cooperation. I’m counting on you too, Leo. Once we were all seated, the food was brought in, and we ate dinner. After the meal, Tilura and I went out to finish our daily sword swinging practice. Then I shared some herbs that would help her sleep in preparation for tomorrow, and then went to bed. As I had trained hard today, I would likely get a good night’s sleep once again. —————— After breakfast the next morning, and a short break for digestion, Tilura and I went out into the garden, followed by Ms. Claire and the others.</s>

Advancing while staying hidden under the shadows as much as possible, he suddenly felt an unpleasant presence from his left. He instantly jumped back and pointed the Green Light Stone towards the presence. There was a gray lizard approximately two meter in length stuck to the wall, glaring at Hajime with its golden eyes. Those golden eyes flashed momentarily and in the next instant... “——!?” Along with a cracking sound, Hajime’s left arm began to petrify. The petrification immediately spread to the Green Light Stone as well and within seconds, there was a creaking noise as it completely shattered. With the light source gone, darkness set upon the area once again. The petrification of his arm was already encroaching his shoulder. Hajime clicked his tongue and took out a bottle of sacred water from his holster; which was made from wires of magic beast fur, and drank it in one gulp. As expected, the petrification came to halt, and the petrified part returned to normal in the blink of an eye. “How dare you do this!” While cursing inwardly, he took out a 【Flash Grenade】 from his waist pack and tossed it towards the golden-eyed lizard. At the same time, over in the darkness, those golden eyes started to shine once again. Hajime didn’t appear to care as he instantly retreated from the area by using 【Ground Shrink】. Then changes appeared on the boulder behind where Hajime originally stood, and subsequently, it crumbled as if it has been weathered. It seems to possess considerably powerful Evil Eyes of Petrification! In RPG terms, this is probably a Basilisk. While thinking of such things, Hajime pulled out Donner and held it up before his eyes, shielding his closed eyes. And “Bang!” The surroundings was bathed in an intense light, painting their vision with light. “Ku-ua!?” Perhaps it had never experienced such an intense light up till date, the figure of a disoriented Basilisk emerged in the darkness. Hajime fired without hesitation. The tremendous power hidden within the bullet without aiming, bore into the Basilisk’s head and pulverized its skull, completely ravaging the insides. The bullet pierced through the head left a deep hole on the wall and “Shuuu~”, leaving behind the sound of burning rocks. Hajime while still keeping a lookout on his surroundings, approached the Basilisk, quickly tore off its flesh and retreated from that location. As expected, it is impossible to leisurely eat when faced with such a situation where he was practically blind. For now, Hajime chose to continue exploring. ~~~~~~~~~</s>

To begin with, the entrance to the dungeon resided in a crater, making it apparently inaccessible to humans unless they possess special skills or equipment. I may have to request Kurokiri to dispatch some Fogs to that site. These were the only dungeons in Japan; however, there were many more dungeons across the world. For starters, there were a total of 666 labyrinths in existence, all of which emerged from the barriers that day. And if I was to elevate the most well-known of them, that would be:: A labyrinth of sky-high towers that was popularly known as the “Skyscraper” had arisen in a building district of a certain major country. Even in the middle of the ocean, there were labyrinths to be found. Among them, there were about 50 that were aggressively assaulting humans like the “Ogre’s Fortress”. There were roughly 100 labyrinths like “White Mist and Black Swamp Forest” where people might have been abducted in clandestine operations and 80 labyrinths like X-J5 where the monsters were staying indoors. The rest were supposed to specialize in an interception. “Huh? Why is there no Demon King who would consider joining hands with humans...?” [That’s because the Demon King’s correction ensures that they cannot beg for their lives. If they thoughtlessly show up at the negotiating table, they’ll end up in a full-fledged mess.] “!?” [I’m free, so I’ve been running some tests on the communication. The signal sensitivity seems to be fine. I’m hanging up now.] “...What a nuisance....” At any rate, I should resume the summary. There were around 200 labyrinths in the world that people were actively striving to conquer out of the total of 666. These 200 labyrinths were practically like the “Ogre’s Fortress,” where people’s lives would be jeopardized if the labyrinths were not seized promptly. And about 300 labyrinths were under close surveillance, just like Kurokiri’s dungeon. The remaining labyrinths, such as X-J5, were placed in such an unfavorable site that even surveillance was inadequate. Next, let’s look at the level of danger. The United Nations ranked the danger as higher if the number of survivors was low in proportion to the number of people entering the labyrinth, as well as the monsters inside and the structure of the labyrinth. It was claimed that I was the lone survivor in the case of “White Mist and Black Swamp Forest,” and that I was the only one who was abducted even under the strictest precautions. Furthermore, the inner structure was completely unknown (I had informed people that the mist was so dense that I could not make out anything).

The Street Corner Beauty Contest was an event which anyone could participate in on a whim. It was an event which determined the number one beauty based on the votes of the audience. In a way, it was a slightly questionable and outdated event which prompted people to ask, “They’re still doing something like this in this day and age?” To be completely upfront, it was a project organised by some popular TV variety show which broadcasted after midnight. Again, in a way, it was a slightly questionable show which was bound to fail even before the project launched. Although it was called a beauty contest, in truth, the main premise of the show might have been more along the lines of getting viewers to judge and ridicule the excessively self-conscious participants. Naturally, this event had a hidden agenda. There was a dirty big surprise prepared by the procedures of the show. There would “coincidently” be an idol by the name of Yuwontsel Lanyway ( years old), whose popularity was on the decline, who just so happened to be in the area and participated, only for her to win at the expense of the other participants who would be used as stepping stones. Needless to say, of course, she did not just coincidentally happen to be passing by the area. The entire thing was scripted and she was just waiting on standby. In other words, yes, that’s exactly how it was. From the very beginning, she was guaranteed to win. It was just a last-ditch event prepared by her managers and television network in an attempt to regain her popularity. Although... on the question of popularity, the television show itself had no popularity from the beginning. Obviously, there were paid audience members amongst the crowd who were fully prepared to boost the stage’s excitement. Having said that, in this day and age where the internet was very active, an easily seen-through act like this would be revealed in an instant, eventually sending everything into the ground or burning up in flames. Nevertheless, the idol’s managers were proceeding with the plan despite knowing full well of the consequence. After all, if she was unable to sell at this moment in time, she would not succeed either way. As such, they did not care about what image she would end up getting. ... Or more like, there might be nothing to burn up in flames in the first place. As mentioned previously, it was not a popular television show to begin with. The possibility of no one seeing the show and the idol disappearing into obscurity was a more likely outcome. If anything, even burning in the depths of a scandal might be the better alternative. “The next participant is... oh? Could it be an idol getting on the stage?” And finally, it was the idol Yuwontsel’s turn to get on stage. The people’s expectations were heightened relatively just from her appearance. Furthermore, a few within the audience sensed that this was all staged, thus they were looking up to the stage with cold dead eyes. But at that moment, everyone’s line of sight drifted away from the stage. “Oi, Benet! They’re in the middle of an event. Don’t just cut across it!” – There was an extremely beautiful young girl and a lady, both of whom were so beautiful that people could not believe they were of the same human species, coincidently passing across the front of the stage. The young girl walking in the front had silver hair and the flustered lady chasing the young girl from behind had bright golden hair. Regardless, the beauty of both of them was out of this world.</s>

They also pollute their next-door neighbors. So they're all shitting each other's ponds, quite literally. And what this project was doing was taking the effluent of these, and turning them into all of this food. They were literally turning pollution into abundance for a desert people. They had created an industrial ecosystem, of a sense. I was there because I was actually modeling the mangrove portion for a carbon credit program, under the U.N. Kyoto Protocol system. And as I was modeling this mangrove swamp, I was thinking to myself, "How do you put a box around this?" When I'm modeling a plant in a box, literally, I know where to draw the boundary. In a mangrove forest like this I have no idea. Well, of course you have to draw the boundary around the whole of the Earth. And understand its interactions with the entire Earth. And put your project in that context. Around the world today we're seeing an incredible transformation, from what I would call a biocidal species, one that -- whether we intentionally or unintentionally -- have designed our systems to kill life, a lot of the time. This is in fact, this beautiful photograph, is in fact over the Amazon. And here the light green are areas of massive deforestation. And those beautiful wispy clouds are, in fact, fires, human-made fires. We're in the process of transforming from this, to what I would call a biophilic society, one where we learn to nurture society. Now it may not seem like it, but we are. It is happening all across the world, in every kind of walk of life, and every kind of career and industry that you can think of. And I think often times people get lost in that. They go, "But how can I possibly find my way in that? It's such a huge subject." And I would say that the small stuff counts. It really does. This is the story of a rake in my backyard. This was my backyard, very early on, when I bought my property. And in Arizona, of course, everybody puts gravel down. And they like to keep everything beautifully raked. And they keep all the leaves away. And on Sunday morning the neighbors leaf blower comes out, and I want to throttle them. It's a certain type of aesthetic. We're very uncomfortable with untidiness. And I threw away my rake. And I let all of the leaves fall from the trees that I have on my property. And over time, essentially what have I been doing? I've been building topsoil. And so now all the birds come in. And I have hawks. And I have an oasis. This is what happens every spring. For six weeks, six to eight weeks, I have this flush of green oasis.</s>

And daily usage just continues to soar. What has happened is the average daily ridership on the streets of New York is 36,000 people. The high that we've had so far is 44,000 in August. Yesterday, 40,000 people used Citi Bike in New York City. The bikes are being used six times a day. And I think you also see it in the kinds of riders that are on the streets. In the past, it looked like the guy on the left, ninja-clad bike messenger. And today, cyclists look like New York City looks. It's diverse -- young, old, black, white, women, kids, all getting on a bike. It's an affordable, safe, convenient way to get around. Quite radical. We've also brought this approach to our buses, and New York City has the largest bus fleet in North America, the slowest bus speeds. As everybody knows, you can walk across town faster than you can take the bus. And so we focused on the most congested areas of New York City, built out six bus rapid transit lines, 57 miles of new speedy bus lanes. You pay at a kiosk before you get on the bus. We've got dedicated lanes that keep cars out because they get ticketed by a camera if they use that lane, and it's been a huge success. I think one of my very favorite moments as transportation commissioner was the day that we launched Citi Bike, and I was riding Citi Bike up First Avenue in my protected bike lane, and I looked over and I saw pedestrians standing safely on the pedestrian islands, and the traffic was flowing, birds were singing -- -- the buses were speeding up their dedicated lanes. It was just fantastic. And this is how it looked six years ago. And so, I think that the lesson that we have from New York is that it's possible to change your streets quickly, it's not expensive, it can provide immediate benefits, and it can be quite popular. You just need to reimagine your streets. They're hidden in plain sight. Thank you.</s>

We're going to take daily cuts through the network for 120 days. The red dots are going to be cases of the flu, and the yellow dots are going to be friends of the people with the flu. And the size of the dots is going to be proportional to how many of their friends have the flu. So bigger dots mean more of your friends have the flu. And if you look at this image -- here we are now in September the 13th -- you're going to see a few cases light up. You're going to see kind of blooming of the flu in the middle. Here we are on October the 19th. The slope of the epidemic curve is approaching now, in November. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang -- you're going to see lots of blooming in the middle, and then you're going to see a sort of leveling off, fewer and fewer cases towards the end of December. And this type of a visualization can show that epidemics like this take root and affect central individuals first, before they affect others. Now, as I've been suggesting, this method is not restricted to germs, but actually to anything that spreads in populations. Information spreads in populations, norms can spread in populations, behaviors can spread in populations. And by behaviors, I can mean things like criminal behavior, or voting behavior, or health care behavior, like smoking, or vaccination, or product adoption, or other kinds of behaviors that relate to interpersonal influence. If I'm likely to do something that affects others around me, this technique can get early warning or early detection about the adoption within the population. The key thing is that for it to work, there has to be interpersonal influence. It cannot be because of some broadcast mechanism affecting everyone uniformly. Now the same insights can also be exploited -- with respect to networks -- for example, in the use of targeting specific people for interventions. So, for example, most of you are probably familiar with the notion of herd immunity. So, if we have a population of a thousand people, and we want to make the population immune to a pathogen, we don't have to immunize every single person. If we immunize 960 of them, it's as if we had immunized a hundred [percent] of them. Because even if one or two of the non-immune people gets infected, there's no one for them to infect. They are surrounded by immunized people. So 96 percent is as good as 100 percent. Well, some other scientists have estimated what would happen if you took a 30 percent random sample of these 1000 people, 300 people and immunized them. Would you get any population-level immunity? And the answer is no.</s>

You’re fine with that too, right?” “Do I have the option to refuse?” “Naturally, not!” I covered my mouth with the scarf and mumbled back. My appearance was disguised, but the same couldn’t be said for my voice. I had a high-pitched voice characteristic of a girl, so I tried my best to muffle it as I could, squeezing out a threatening voice. But even that sounded too childish compared to an average man. “What the, you sound like a girl.” “Ugh, I-I’m conscious of it.” “I see, so that’s why you cover your mouth with a scarf and speak so little.” There were female Adventurers on the battlefield too, so it wouldn’t have been that conspicuous even if I used my real voice to yell there. They would just mistake it for some female Adventurer. But when talking face-to-face like this, it stood out very much. As such, I tried to avoid speaking to others as much as I could, but it was unavoidable in this situation. “Sorry if it bothered you. But we really need your strength now.” “I never said I wouldn’t.” “I see! I’m glad to hear that!” He tried to give me a friendly jab, but if I allowed it, he would notice the difference in height between me and my disguise, so I took a step back and dodged it. This guy didn’t have a bad personality like he already displayed. Rather, if you removed his illness that people tended to catch when they were fourteen, his personality could even be called refreshing. He didn’t seem to take offense at my current action either, and realized that I didn’t want to be touched on top of my voice problem. “Whoops, sorry. Is touching your body no good either?” “Y-Yeah.” “I see. I’ll let the others know.” “Thanks.” Kayle folded his arms, perhaps so he wouldn’t accidentally touch me, and nodded two-three times. Seeing us like that, Cortina clapped her hands. “Well then, start making your preparations at once. You guys are one of the trump cards of this battle. Be sure to carefully prepare.” “Right, leave it to us!” With those words, Kayle rushed out of the Guild at full speed. I was worried about Cortina’s state, but it was true that if we succeeded here, the Goblins would lose their control and we would gain an advantage over them. That said, we needed to carefully prepare for that. I left the guild while having uneasy thoughts. ◇◆◇◆◇ The capital of the United Alliance of the north, Tryad.

I finally noticed it at winter, not just that, I was going to be next year soon. Anyway, this autumn and winter we were very busy. First about me, since there was nothing major for me to do, I became absorbed in the development of the barrier magic stones. The reason being that they became a big hit. When it were just the adventurers and a few other customers, it was enough to let Luara watch the store. The biggest problem was the number of orders from the army, royalty, and merchants. On some days, I was buried in orders. I spent a lot of my time to deal with it. I’m grateful for the harpies help in delivering the stones. Well, since it was unexpectedly profitable, let’s leave it at that. That being said, most of the profits went into the Kurumfar territory. As for the troublesome Kurumfar territory, Mei, Gon, and Peris were in charge of the agricultural development. I was worried at first but the seeds sprouted properly and their growth was acceptable. There were also plenty of paddy fields, the problem is whether it’s possible to grow rice on them, this matter is still being investigated. The fishing industry, on the other hand, was faring quite splendidly. Since the port of the Kairiku city was opened, the city became much more lively. The esaraharu dishes became popular and you can see people coming all the way from the imperial capital just to taste them. The salt problem was solved and this side is also bustling. The tax revenue from the fishing industry was somehow able to make up for the agriculture deficit. Speaking of the happy occasion, it seems that the visitors, who tried the new dishes, spread the word and the population of the Kairiku town increased little by little. Since there were people interested in developing new lands, I went to the Kurumfar territory on my day off, fixed the land with earth magic, and had Mei spread her fertilizer around. As for the other happy occasion, it’s possible to get「Nigari」together with the salt. Previously, I used to buy it in a drugstore but there is no need to do this anymore. I can make as much tofu as I want. I approached the matter of the hotel very thoroughly, I have a great confidence in its success.

And as time went by, and I learned more about other things, as far as the results. But I wanted the score of a game to be the byproduct of these other things, and not the end itself. I believe it was one great philosopher who said -- no, no -- Cervantes. Cervantes said, "The journey is better than the end." And I like that. Sometimes when you get there, there's almost a let down. But it's the getting there that's the fun. As a basketball coach at UCLA, I liked our practices to be the journey, and the game would be the end, the end result. I liked to go up and sit in the stands and watch the players play, and see whether I'd done a decent job during the week. There again, it's getting the players to get that self-satisfaction, in knowing that they'd made the effort to do the best of which they are capable. Sometimes I'm asked who was the best player I had, or the best teams. I can never answer that. I was asked one time about that, and they said, "Suppose that you, in some way, could make the perfect player. What would you want?" And I said, "Well, I'd want one that knew why he was at UCLA: to get an education, he was a good student, really knew why he was there in the first place. But I'd want one that could play, too. I'd want one to realize that defense usually wins championships, and who would work hard on defense. But I'd want one who would play offense, too. I'd want him to be unselfish, and look for the pass first and not shoot all the time. And I'd want one that could pass and would pass. I've had some that could and wouldn't, and I've had some that would and could. And I wanted them to be able to shoot from the outside. I wanted them to be good inside too. I'd want them to be able to rebound well at both ends, too. Why not just take someone like Keith Wilkes and let it go at that. Not the only one, but he was one that I used in that particular category, because I think he made the effort to become the best. I mention in my book, "They Call Me Coach," two players that gave me great satisfaction, that came as close as I think anyone I ever had to reach their full potential: one was Conrad Burke, and one was Doug McIntosh. When I saw them as freshmen, on our freshmen team -- freshmen couldn't play varsity when I taught. I thought, "Oh gracious, if these two players, either one of them" -- they were different years, but I thought about each one at the time he was there -- "Oh, if he ever makes the varsity, our varsity must be pretty miserable, if he's good enough to make it." And you know, one of them was a starting player for a season and a half. The other one, his next year, played 32 minutes in a national championship game, Did a tremendous job for us. The next year, he was a starting player on the national championship team, and here I thought he'd never play a minute, when he was -- so those are the things that give you great joy, and great satisfaction to see.</s>

But nevertheless, that's not what I'm going to talk to you about tonight. What I'm going to talk to you about tonight is stuff we might do if we did nothing. And it's this stuff in the middle here, which is what you do if you don't stop the emissions quickly enough. And you need to deal -- somehow break the link between human actions that change climate, and the climate change itself. And that's particularly important because, of course, while we can adapt to climate change -- and it's important to be honest here, there will be some benefits to climate change. Oh, yes, I think it's bad. I've spent my whole life working to stop it. But one of the reasons it's politically hard is there are winners and losers -- not all losers. But, of course, the natural world, polar bears. I spent time skiing across the sea ice for weeks at a time in the high Arctic. They will completely lose. And there's no adaption. So this problem is absolutely soluble. This geo-engineering idea, in it's simplest form, is basically the following. You could put signed particles, say sulfuric acid particles -- sulfates -- into the upper atmosphere, the stratosphere, where they'd reflect away sunlight and cool the planet. And I know for certain that that will work. Not that there aren't side effects, but I know for certain it will work. And the reason is, it's been done. And it was done not by us, not by me, but by nature. Here's Mount Pinatubo in the early '90s. That put a whole bunch of sulfur in the stratosphere with a sort of atomic bomb-like cloud. The result of that was pretty dramatic. After that, and some previous volcanoes we have, you see a quite dramatic cooling of the atmosphere. So this lower bar is the upper atmosphere, the stratosphere, and it heats up after these volcanoes. But you'll notice that in the upper bar, which is the lower atmosphere and the surface, it cools down because we shielded the atmosphere a little bit. There's no big mystery about it. There's lots of mystery in the details, and there's some bad side effects, like it partially destroys the ozone layer -- and I'll get to that in a minute. But it clearly cools down. And one other thing: it's fast. It's really important to say. So much of the other things that we ought to do, like slowing emissions, are intrinsically slow, because it takes time to build all the hardware we need to reduce emissions. And not only that, when you cut emissions, you don't cut concentrations, because concentrations, the amount of CO2 in the air, is the sum of emissions over time. So you can't step on the brakes very quickly. But if you do this, it's quick. And there are times you might like to do something quick.</s>

Speaking of which, I heard Sir needs some craftsmen?” “Yes. I need some craftsmen to create some new, or rather, improvised, weapons and tools.” I was glad His Highness didn’t immediately demand ideas about Triot and Gezarius, since I needed some time to organize the information. This time, the game knowledge might be useless. “Sure. I will see you again in days then.” “Thank you very much.” After His Highness glanced to the side, he nodded. I guess glance was to give an order to his assistant, who managed his schedule. Now that one matter was finished, there was another thing that I wanted to confirm with His Highness. “Incidentally, Your Highness, about the chief of the Alea Village...” “Ah, him.” His Highness showed me a rare wry smile. I wondered what happened? “Did something happen to the chief?” “Well, I heard he sent a letter of protest to the palace. I didn’t even see it though.” Yeah, it would be his staff, not His Highness himself, who handled the matter of a local village. Wait, what? Didn’t the problem just get bigger somehow? I mean, usually a problem of a village would be handled by the local nobility. This time, the reason the matter of the Alea Village was handled in the capital was that this matter could affect the royal family’s reputation since it was the royal family which supported the hero. “Laura is usually polite, but she also has a frank side.” “Yes. I had also experienced that side of Her Highness when I talked with her in the courtyard.” Or to be more specific, I experienced that side of Laura in the game. After all, she was set to be an approachable and friendly princess character in the game. “Her letter was written with beautiful penmanship and impeccable grammar, like it was an official document. The letter contained Laura’s request for a As I inadvertently let out a rather rude comment, His Highness gave a bitter smile. Good thing he didn’t mind it. anger on each of its lines elegantly and full of smiles. Scary. The matter of Alea Village ended up becoming bigger than I expected. I think it was going to be troublesome if I butt in now. “It seems like I have troubled you with this matter. My apologies.” “This matter is the country’s blunder. There’s no need for Sir to apologize. In any case, what did Sir make the orphans and the refugees do in the capital when you were away?” Urgh... As expected, he knew about it. Well, by the time I returned to the capital from Finnoi, His Highness had already found out who was actually devils disguised as humans in the capital so his investigation capabilities were no joke. I guess it was only natural that he knew about it. It wasn’t something that I needed to hide anyway so this was a perfect time to explain it and ask for His Highness’s permission.</s>

I take a piece of paper, I visualize my story, sometimes I sketch, sometimes I don't. And as my image is already inside the paper, I just have to remove what's not from that story. So I didn't come to papercutting in a straight line. In fact, I see it more as a spiral. I was not born with a blade in my hand. And I don't remember papercutting as a child. As a teenager, I was sketching, drawing, and I wanted to be an artist. But I was also a rebel. And I left everything and went for a long series of odd jobs. So among them, I have been a shepherdess, a truck driver, a factory worker, a cleaning lady. I worked in tourism for one year in Mexico, one year in Egypt. I moved for two years in Taiwan. And then I settled in New York where I became a tour guide. And I still worked as a tour leader, in China, Tibet and Central Asia. So of course, it took time, and I was nearly 40, and I decided it's time to start as an artist. I chose papercutting because paper is cheap, it's light, and you can use it in a lot of different ways. And I chose the language of silhouette because graphically it's very efficient. And it's also just getting to the essential of things. So the word "silhouette" comes from a minister of finance, Etienne de Silhouette. And he slashed so many budgets that people said they couldn't afford paintings anymore, and they needed to have their portrait "a la silhouette." So I made series of images, cuttings, and I assembled them in portfolios. And people told me -- like these 36 views of the Empire State building -- they told me, "You're making artist books." So artist books have a lot of definitions. They come in a lot of different shapes. But to me, they are fascinating objects to visually narrate a story. They can be with words or without words. And I have a passion for images and for words. I love pun and the relation to the unconscious. I love oddities of languages. And everywhere I lived, I learned the languages, but never mastered them. So I'm always looking or identical words in different languages. So as you can guess, my mother tongue is French. And my daily language is English. So I did a series of work where it was identical words in French and in English. So one of these works is the "Spelling Spider." So the Spelling Spider is a cousin of the spelling bee. But it's much more connected to the Web.</s>

Even if someone cannot see the magic power like Spalpkin, the door was sealed with a massive amount of magic power that could be sensed, and if the proper procedure was not applied, the door would probably never be opened. “Well, not that I can use that right method though.” Pumpkin had no control over the process, though, since the proper procedure, according to the king, required a person within the second degree of relationship with the current king in the form of a blood relative who will allow the door to voluntarily recognize their magic power and blood. The necessity to be in the second degree of relationship was the reason Pumpkin had to comply with other options, but there was another factor at play: Pumpkin’s body didn’t have any blood flow to begin with. “Well, I guess I’ll have to wait a while.” Therefore, while reinforcing himself to counter the door defense mechanism that would be activated if he tried to forcibly open the door, he left one of the soldiers guarding the door in a wrapped-up position, disposed of the rest by sucking blood, replenished his magic, and waited for the signal to come. Not only was the door’s defense mechanism an offensive one that would eliminate hostiles, but also one that would wake up the soldiers inside the castle and then summon them to action. Pumpkin would wait until the signal came since if he tried to open the door before the king and the others escaped, their evacuation might encounter complications. Buーーーーー! “Ugh!? Ko... ga...” “Yeah. The signal has come.” The signal was that after the king and others escaped, by destroying a part of the defensive magic covering Senkonoto, Pumpkin would deactivate the [Resonance Concerto Spell・Good Night Day] he had released and wake up the soldiers. In fact, Pumpkin didn’t even need to keep the last soldier by his side alive to confirm it because the alarm sounded to him as it typically would. “Now then, shall I muster up the spirit and get going?” After the soldiers he had left behind had all been eliminated, Pumpkin put one arm around him to assess his condition and increased the flow of magic power into his body. “Hmph!” He forced his hand into the gap of the door. After that, magic bullets were fired at Pumpkin from all directions as the door was heated by defensive magic that was embedded into it. “Make it work!”</s>

The place that he entered first seemed to be a corridor and many doors and windows were evident. While posters and billboards apparently were not subject to the maintenance magic, and no such materials were left behind, the thickness of the dust clinging to the corridors indicated that the building had not been inhabited for a very long time. “Hmm...” He then opened one of the doors, which seemed to be operating with magic power effortlessly, and went in. “I don’t get it.” Inside the room in which he entered was a machine of some kind. The presence of what appeared to be a monitor and a keyboard were indicative of something similar to a computer, except that it was not powered and therefore did not work. Although the materials nearby have been well preserved and can be read, the characters used were slightly different from those used in modern times, so it was impossible to read them. But, there are some readable words, so I shall endeavor to decipher as much as I can from them. “Let’s see, far away... San Holo... Santack Island... Dragon... Communication... Sky... black full moon? Doom... inevitable... nightmare...” And there were even more questions that emerged as a result of the readings. Yeah. From the text, it seems to be the diary of someone who used to work here, but the details are unknown... At any rate, the diary seems to be more urgent in the later stages, judging from the fact that the civilization is perishing in this way. In that sense, it seems likely that it is a valuable document that talks about the “Kage-Ochi” of a certain period... Hmm. I should take it home and examine it properly. “Then I guess I’ll move on to the next room.” Pumpkin went on to the following room and started to undertake the same sort of research after thoroughly investigating this one. As these investigations progressed, understanding dawned on him that this tower was originally built and used as a transmitting station for long-distance communication magic. The accuracy and distance of the communication magic were unmatched by anything in existence today, and from the data that remained, it seemed to be able to accurately transmit images and sound from this tower, which was located deep in Lean Forest, to the destination of Senkonoto. Nevertheless, it would seem that the communication cannot be received unless there was a tower like this one at the destination as well. As for the coloring, one of the designers at the time seemed to be strangely particular about that part. Were they a reincarnated person? “Now that I’ve checked everything out... I guess this is the next stop.” Having done so, after checking out the interior corridors that were connected and easily accessible, he approached one of the doors in the corridor.</s>

In the end, Kufar had not tried anything. Thanks to that, I managed to spend a good time with Cortina. Problem was that I couldn’t do it with Reid’s form. Because I used Polymorph scroll last time, it was on a cooldown. Cortina was quite displeased about it, but spending time with her friend’s daughter was fun in its own way too. Thus, the day to head to the Stolla domain had finally arrived. Cortina, Maxwell, and Letina stood at the city gates. Even Matisse and the orphanage kids came to see us off. “Never thought it would turn into such a big farewell.” “It’s even bigger compared to the time we left the village.” “I even told them they didn’t need to come to see me off...” Seeing the orphanage kids come to see him off, Cloud’s eyes seemed to turn a little wet. He had experiences of being thoroughly bullied there, but he had been accepted as one of them during these past few years. That didn’t mean the internal discord had gone away. He was probably impressed that they still suppressed all those emotions and came to see him off. “You’re no longer one of the orphanage people, but this place is still your hometown.” “Come back if anything happens, I’ll at least get you some servant work. I’ll make you work like a horse.” “Like hell I’ll come back.” The sister watched warmly over the children that threw curses around. She knew that their abuses did not come from their hearts, but simply embarrassment. “Nicole, Adventuring is dangerous work. Remember to prioritize your life no matter the situation, okay?” “Yeah, stay safe too, Cortina. You’re the easiest to aim for among the Six Heroes.” “I will be careful of course. But if they do target me, I’ll turn the tables on them.” Cortina pumped her fist in determination. The problem was that her thin arms did not seem very strong. That said, it was a cute gesture so who cares. She was always stiff, so acting like a little girl created quite a cute gap in her personality. “You be careful too, Michelle. And be sure to protect Lady Nicole, you hear?” “Yeah, leave it to me.” “You two definitely have to return okay? I will be waiting for you.” “Of course. Letina is our friend. We’ll definitely come back.” Then, Letina turned towards me and took out a handkerchief from her pocket. It was that same handkerchief that I had handed over the other day and became all snotty. “Here, I washed it.” “Thanks. It wasn’t expensive so you didn’t have to.” “A Marquis’ daughter cannot possibly receive something and not return it.” Her standoffish attitude did not last very long. She seemed to have reached her limit and tears burst out from her eyes. “Ahh, here, wipe them off.” “I... just... returned it... “You can just return it when I come back. That aside, getting your eyes swollen like that would ruin your pretty face.”</s>
