Northern Michgan Anime Convention - Year Two

Well, folks. It's getting to be that time of year again, for Ani-Pock's official anime convention, NMACon in Traverse City, Michigan, to roll around once more!

I'll bet you are dying to know who the special guest is this year...

NMACon is proud to host, the one, the only, Vic Mignogna!

You'll know Vic by his unique voice acting, for such characters as Edward Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist and Tamaki Suou from Ouran High School Host Club.
This year NMACon will also feature a video tournament, Cosplay Arena, which allows people wearing their cosplays to battle as the character they are representing in a sort of live-action roleplay style.

The theme is film noir and murder mystery and the convention will be host to a realtime, convention-wide event that will take place from opening ceremonies to closing.
And as always, Ani-Pock's official convention is open for all Pockers to meet and greet one another. I hope lots of people can make it this year!

June Members Post

June!!!

PC was kind enough to take over member list responsibilities this month.
The list has been up for some time, but she forgot to mention it was there!

So leave a quote please!

Why have some of the names been erased?

We placed members that did not contribute a quote last month to the member archive. If your name isn't on there, you're neither gone nor forgotten, but you are a part of A-P history!

Either way, it's not too late to get active and get back on the list!

Put you name on this month's member list! Submit a quote or picture!

Chatto - Sunny Day in Kanto EP

From Manga:

"It is a song by my friend Chatto (her youtube username is taelmx). It's an EP track for an upcoming album she is making that has more or less of a Pokemon theme. Art by Marina Gardner."

She's also selling an album on Amazon. Groovy techno~

Green Graduation Cap

Here's my Class of 2009 Graduation Cap for the University of California Berkeley.

It is covered with a small "green world," complete with a solar power plant and a wind turbine.

The solar panel works, and actually drives the wind turbine. So while not true generation, it helps to demonstrate renewable energy at least.

I was involved in several sustainable groups on campus. I helped pass the Green Initiative Fund (TGIF) legislation on campus, which generates $200,000 annually for green projects at Berkeley. I also taught the Joy of Garbage DeCal course for six semesters. This course explored the impact of our waste on the past, present and future. Finally I was the Waste Reduction Manger (WRM) at my housing cooperative for four semesters.

Grass paper and miniature trees were obtained from a model railroad store. The tassel was magnetically mounted at two points under the cap, to allow me to 'graduate.'

The house contains an arm connected to the Sun. The sun can be raised by a remote control. I used this while walking across the stage to wave to the family. You can see this in the two videos below.

I majored in Product Design through the Interdisciplinary Studies Program at Berkeley and hope to work on green sustainable products in the future.
