The Long Walk is when a Judge leaves the city for the Cursed Earth or the Undercity to "bring law to the lawless". Some aging Judges choose the Long Walk because they no longer meet the physical requirements to patrol Mega City One as a Street Judge, but cannot imagine themselves retiring to a desk job or teaching post at the Academy of Law. Other Judges might take the Long Walk if they have been somehow disgraced or disillusioned. Judge Dredd once took the Long Walk because he grew disillusioned with the way the Justice Department was doing things.

  • < Empowerments This practice was introduced to me through the pages of This Book is Not Required, a "college survival" book by Inge Bell. (Bell was an iconoclastic sociology professor, with a refreshing view of college life and a bent towards Buddhism. I recommend her book to anyone attending, or thinking of attending college.) 1. * Set your alarm 15 minutes earlier than you normally would. 2. * When you wake up, spend that 15 minutes walking around your room, or whatever area you sleep in, as slowly as you possibly can. 3. * The rest of the day, do everything at about 50% speed.
