The Daily Mail is running a scandal piece about a British Conservative politician (or three) and his bullying/blackmail tactics, which led to his victim's suicide.

Then they went after the politician's defender on Twitter, who just happened to be an attractive, blonde-haired lady.

Under the lucid headline, Tatler Tory and a very naughty blonde activist: Shapps was made a scapegoat over scandal, says campaigner (who loves to post rather racy photos on social media) (Daily Mail, Dec 2nd 2015), the 'news' paper attempted to discredit Marina Muttik - head of Bristol and Gloucestershire Conservative Future - because one cannot be pretty on Twitter AND hold valid political views regarding one's friends in government.

Marina Muttik doesn't need further discrediting. She's a Conservative.

Before coming back for more:

I'm a little late on this one, but there's still a day left to vote in Manga Entertainment Ltd's weekly poll.

It's asking whether we would like to see Death Note released on Blu-Ray, and spells out the reasons why this might be a preferable thing to, say, DVD or streaming the anime online.

Read what they have to say and vote before midnight tonight on their website.

This isn't just a random internet poll by the way.  Manga Entertainment Ltd has close links with Viz Media - which owns the North American rights to the Death Note anime - and its subsidiary Manga UK is the largest distributor of Japanese anime in Britain.

In short, this poll might be your big moment to influence wavering policy. Or it might be a subtly disguised heads up that it's going to happen anyway.  Only they're going to create the circumstances to state that we demanded it outright via this poll.

Either way the poll is there, vote if you will, don't if you won't.

Cayanna Carma will be Squad Six Cosplayers' special guest at Ichibancon. Joining forces at our Resurrecting L: Death Note 10th Anniversary panel.

She will be cosplaying Light Yagami for us, and we just know that will bring in a huge crowd.

Cayanna Carma is known through the convention community for her ability to encompass the attitude and personality of each character she portrays. She's just fantastic.  She's a 24 year old that can draft her own cosplay patterns, taught herself to sew, and can piece together shoes, props, pants, shirts, gloves, and even wigs with no issues.

Though Cayanna Carma will be taking on Kira at the Ichibancon anime convention, she's MOST known for her cosplay from Kuroshitsuji and Naruto. You can check out her ability to become each cosplayed character on her Facebook page, though nothing beats seeing her in action.

Now all Squad Six Cosplayers have to do is live up to that precedence too. No pressure then!
