Heroic Cop Rams Drunk Driver to Protect Runners

Trooper Toni Schuck, a 26-year veteran of the Florida Highway Patrol, was, last Sunuday, providing protection to 7,000 runners participating in the Skyway 10K in New Port Richey, Florida. She heard a radio report that a woman in a BMW blew through barricades blocking off the runners' route. Schuck swung around and moved to intercept the suspected drunk driver.

Fox 13 News reports that Schuck's Chevrolet Tahoe cruiser was the last obstacle between the BMW and the runners. As you can see in the above footage, she took a head-on collision to bring the drunk driver to a complete stop.

This is what her cruiser looked like afterward:

Police arrested the driver, who, at a hospital, tested three times over the legal limit for alcohol. Trooper Schuck was seriously injured and remains on medical leave until she has recovered and can resume her heroic duties.

Engaged to Unidentified is a sweet and funny story about a high school girl who suddenly finds she is engaged to a boy from somewhere out in the mountains.

Description from Crunchyroll.com:

Yonomori Kobeni is a high school student who leads a pretty normal life... and then the day of her 16th birthday arrives. Despite having very little presence, her fiance, Mitsumine Hakuya shows up suddenly along with her sister-in-law, a little girl named Mitsumine Mashiro. Without any prior explanation, they begin their peculiar life together. Kobeni's older sister, Yonomori Benio, who has has a sister complex and is a bit of a pervert is thrown into the mix and things get even weirder. Kobeni's life is no longer normal.

Since you didn't mention these, I'll just throw them out. Mostly from the the recently-ended 2014 Fall season. Lately I seem to be more focused on slice-of-life with cute girls, so keep that in mind with regards to a few of these...

Parayste. By far this is at the #1 spot for me. Everything works well: the art, the music, the story. It's a long series, continuing into the Winter season. Definitely not a cutesy series.

World Trigger. Another long series, and one that seems to have people divided. I'm liking it a lot. Some are complaining that the animation is minimal, but for someone who grew up with Hanna-Barbara cartoons, I never really noticed it until pointed out.

I have to mention Celestial Method, because I liked that one too, and it's getting blasted. Some of the complaints are valid, but overall, if I were liable to import something, this would be it. The only reason I'm not is that I'm 75% into importing something from the summer, and it's just too expensive.

Kokkuri-san walked that fine line between humor and seriousness.

I've picked up KanColle, but the first episode had me underwhelmed. I guess I was hoping for something more akin to Arpeggio. I'll give it a few more episodes, but I'm a bit disappointed because this was my most anticipated.

I've also heard that "Working!" (Wagnaria) is getting a third season "soon", so I caught up on the first two, and I liked it enough to look forward to another season.

There are others, but way too much to talk about in one sitting!
