Central Terminal: Specifications on "Fortressa mode"

Well it is me again same deal as last time. Well better get started.

"Fortressa mode" allows for Grand Arms to fire at extreme line of sight distances. This was needed in the war against the space monsters since there was no orbital weaponry to kill the aliens as they entered the Earth's atmosphere. The technology for most of the world's military was not advance enought to make a ground based cannon able to hit objects insuch extreme ranges. Like most typical animes Grand Arms was created not by the military-industrial complex but by a "mad scientist" and then entrusted to Al later. Therefore Grand Arms posses technology that was far in advance of current technology.

"Fortressa mode" basically turns Grand Arms into a fortress which can not move but is securly braced against the ground. It is therfore capable of firing its weapons at maxmium capacity with great accuracy. This means extreme range in firing (approximately 380,000 miles (distance from Earth to the Moon. Like most typical animes, numbers have a signifigant importance and creators of these shows will pick numbers which have some real world signifigance or some cultural meaning. Such as 4 being the number for death in asia would be a good number for a character associated with death.) and pin point accuracy. To counteract the fact that it couldn't move Grand Arms posses the most powerful barrier ever created by man in this mode. Grand Arms also sports several anti-air and anti-personel weapon batteries in this mode. This mode would be used to engage the monsters before they reached Earth and could be further used against air targets. This mode was excellent for sniping and the sensors had such good range this mode also served as a good (and very heavily armed) observation post.

Now for the Specs

Height: Roughly 8 meters
Weight: ???
Power Generators: Cold Fusion Reactor, Alpha Engine, Beta Generator and Gamma Device
Armor: Grand Armian variant Panzer
Max range of weapons (with accuracy within a + or - of .01 degrees (term for the accuracy of a gun.)): 380,000 miles
Max range of weapons (How far the weapons will shoot not caring about the actual accuracy): ???
Weapons: Mega Fixer Cannon x2 (Fixed over shoulders) Positron Cannon (Mounted in chest) 60 mm eye beams x2 (Function as anti-air weaponry)5 baralled extended range beam cannons x2 (Essentially the finger beam cannons in a long range configuration) Long range Thor class missle launcher xmany (Fires farther then the Giga Class) Extreme range Linear Guns x2 (The linear guns boosted to a extreme range.) Anti-air missle batteries xmany (For use against air targets) Anti-air laser batteries xmany (Just in case they can intercept missles) Anti-personel laser batteries xmany (used against small targets)
Secondary systems:Panzer cloak, long range sensors, Giga magnetic torroid barrier
Ultimate moves: Extreme Positron cannon (The most longest distance firing move that Grand Arms Panzer posseses. It is only second in power to the Omega beam move but has range that is immesurable.)

Well that is all for now.

Toys 'ʁ' Us

Dammit... well that's what I get for flipping the keyboard.
I humbly concede, now I need to find a mirror to keep next to the computer just in case I need that backwards R.

I hate it when I want to find something that I had read online, but the search space can only be vaguely defined. In this case it was this poignant use of the subjunctive, If America were Iraq, What would it be Like? (I'll get to that later.) Unfortunately, and it happens often, I frequent many an often updated blog, and simply flipping through archives does not always help. It actually surprises me that, at this point, there is no simple tool (*hint, hint firefox extension) to search through the pages of one's browser history in the browser. (Yeah, yeah, there are external tools. But they're all Windows tools, and are useless to me.)

Anyway, to the article itself. I got my dad to watch Control Room tonight (although he is currently sleeping through the most important part) and we got into a discussion about objectivity. His point was that, right now, everyone is focussing on the negative in Iraq, and not on the good being done. Beyond the fact that the media never talks about the good (when was the last time you heard about palestinians not suicide bombing israelis (they can't all be vociferously climbing the 'fence' and eagerly blowing themselves up)?), I'm not sure that things in Iraq are as good as the President says they are. On the one hand, they claim that elections are on the way in January. On the other, the best case is tenuous stability, and the worst is civil war. Nevertheless, based on facts we do know, the Juan Cole comment is significant. I don't pretend to know how good or bad it is, but it's clearly not as good as the President says it is.



Oh, and Beck, Leo was right. You need a mirror to write Toys 'Я' Us. In the profound words of Zelos, "I'm too pretty! Seriously!"

Haven't done this in a while. A Something Awful Unlikely Movie Prequels:

In case you were interested that last info came from here
It's an interesting read especially if you've ever played any type of RPG.

For the Geekfesters:

Yggdrasill: (or Yggdrasil) This giant ash tree grows through the center of the nine worlds. It was neither born, nor will it ever die ... Yggdrasill is eternal and pervades the cosmos. The fruit of this tree guarantees a harmless childbirth, and the dew from its leaves is the sweet nectar from which bees make honey. High in its branches it is said lives an eagle, and at its lowest roots dwells the dragon Nidhogg. Upon its trunk, the squirrel Ratatosk scampers from roots to branches carrying cryptic messages between the dragon and the eagle. The tree gathers water from three wells, one of which is in Asgard and is called the Well of Urd, another is in Midgard and is called Mimir's Well, and the third is in Niflheim and is known as the Spring of Hvergelmir. In order to learn the wisdom of the dead, Odin willingly suspended himself on Yggdrasill for nine nights, during which time he was pierced in his abdomen by a spear. Legend also states that upon Ragnarok (the end of the world) there will be a man and a woman, Lif and Lifthrasir, who will hide inside the trunk to survive the devastation. This couple will bear children and begin a new phase in the cycle of man.
