PASADENA, Calif., Jan. 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Gary Langendoen, Senior Managing Director of Pasadena's Madison Realty Companies, announced this week that the federal government had approved Madison's formation of the American California Regional Center, matching foreign investors with job-creating construction projects in 19 northern California counties.
The new Regional Center takes advantage of a 1992 amendment to the Immigration Act of 1990, which grants foreign nationals an initial two-year visa if they invest at least $500,000 in job-creating projects in the United States.
Citizens of other countries seeking U.S. visas who invest in the American California Regional Center will see their funds put to work in commercial real estate construction and the development of assisted living facilities and continuing care retirement communities.
Tom Martin, a developer and operator of over 150 assisted living facilities, notes that he "just expanded my current project with EB-5 financing from Madison Realty, and it's now completed and in lease-up."
Madison Realty, founded over 20 years ago, is recognized nationally as a successful developer and owner of assisted living properties throughout the United States. Gary Langendoen, Madison's senior managing director, has been actively involved in more than $3 billion of real estate transactions in a career that spans more than 30 years. He calls the American California Regional Center "a real opportunity for developers to get the equity capital or secondary financing they need to get their projects built. We know the industry, and we can make very quick decisions."
Project eligibility and inquiries on EB-5 funding through the American Capital Regional Center, please visit the contact page located on the Madison Realty website: www.madisonrealtycompanies.com.

Phil's Maloof comment nonsense, but classic Phil
So now Phil Jackson's well aimed, fully intentional barbs have put our Janis Carr in the cross hairs.
Man, we're gonna miss this guy when he's gone. Covering the Lakers won't be nearly as exciting or potentially litigious. We're guessing Brian Shaw won't say anything that could result in one of us being jailed for contempt of court. Or contempt of something worse.
To read Janis' account of this latest development, click here.
It's one thing for Jackson to submerge himself in boiling water with his mouth, but now his trying to pull some of our best people down with him. Phil, what are we going to do with you? More importantly, what are we going to do without you?
Jackson was just doing what Jackson does and does so well. He was taking a shot -- albeit one completely off-base and ridiculous -- at a favorite target, in this case Sacramento and the Maloof brothers.
Comparing Frank McCourt, an owner with no money, to the Maloofs, owners with no arena, makes zero sense. The situations, contrary to Jackson's opinion, are nothing alike.
But that's just Phil being Phil. And let's thank God that he's going out in classic style.

CLOSED: Food Evolution
109 Danbury Rd, Ridgefield, Connecticut, USA, 06877
In July 2014 this restaurant replaced So Good Vegan Cafe with new owners, same staff. Offers contemporary dining with bright interior with large windows, plenty of parking, and Wi-Fi access. NOV 2014 reported closed to HappyCow.
Category: Vegan, American, International
Reviews (6)First Review by sohum
This restaurant has closed - Edit
According to their FB page, the restaurant is no longer in business.
Amazing - Edit
I can't wait to go back here. The food was excellent and the owners even spoke with me directly. They were adding a dessert menu the day I went so I am excited to go back and see it.
Pros: Great food, Good atmosphere, Friendly owners
Cons: Slightly pricey (but worth it)
Creative, delicious meals! - Edit
I drove 45 minutes just to come for lunch, and it was more than worth it. The dishes are unbelievably creative, delectable, gorgeously balanced, and beautifully presented. I had the spanakopita and soup of the day: curried carrot coconut. The staff is warm and friendly and knowledgeable, and both the indoor and outdoor dining spaces are beautiful.
Pros: atmosphere, creative dishes, great staff
Cons: hard to find
Would Come Again - Edit
Food was very good. I had paella and nori rolls. If you go it's around the corner to the left of where you see the 109. The whole block of stores is 109. Kinda confusing.
Pros: Yummy, Nice Atmosphere, Friendly
Cons: Hard To Find, A Tad Slow
Contemporary Vegan in Ridgefield! - Edit
The previous restaurant at this location (So Good Vegan Café) was certainly welcome, but the food there was hit-and-miss. The new FOOD EVOLUTION carries on the same vegan contemporary food tradition, but with new ownership, and a terrific new vegan chef. Last night, my wife &I sampled several appetizers (including the Fiesta Nachos, which were terrific), and our two main courses (Buddha Bowl and Garden Greens Spanakopita) were both fabulous! We split a white-frosted coconut cake for dessert— it was moist, fresh and absolutely wonderful. Cheap it's not (main courses are around $15), but certainly not out of line, especially for this area. Service was prompt and friendly, the new owners were gracious and welcoming, the place looks and feels great, and the entire experience just could not have been any better. As far as we're concerned, this is the best vegetarian restaurant in the state. We're looking forward to trying everything on the menu! Updated 7/26/14: We've been back several times, and incredible as this may sound, it just keeps getting better! Can we give the place a 6th "Happy Cow"? No? RATS! It's "Excellent" and then some! How could we describe the food? "Nouveau Vegan"? The fare here is fresh and delightful, and the deserts are— well, the word "sinful" comes to mind. Go and enjoy!
Updated from previous review on Thursday July 03, 2014
Pros: Wonderful food , Clean, contemporary interior, Friendly staff, good service
A feel good restaurant (like a feel good movie) ! - Edit
My husband took me out for dinner on my Birthday and I was so glad he picked this lovely restaurant! Being a vegan, I am used to having very little choice on the menu but with this all-Vegan menu – I was totally spoilt for choice!! We started with the Crystal rice and Nori rolls with delicious peanut sauce - fresh, crisp, fragrant with herbs. My husband had the Chilled Pea Soup with mint – light and refreshing. Perfect start for a summer meal! For the entrée, I ordered the Wild Rice Paella with vegan sausage – the wild rice was cooked to perfection. For my taste, I would have liked a touch of spice to the dish (I love spicy food) to kick it up a notch. (The dish did have a tiny bit of Siracha – but more for color than for taste.) Every ingredient in the plate had its own special place and the yet dish came together beautifully. My husband's comment with his mouthful of Portobello mushroom burger was "ummmm, moist but not slimy. Very flavorful!" The dessert was the perfect ending to a very healthy n satisfying meal - we had the Red White and Blue Sundae with vanilla coconut ice cream and hot fudge, blue berries, cherries, candied almonds… need I say more!
It seems like the new management has hit the ground running and are on track to taking this restaurant to a whole new level (Evolution!). Kudos to the chef – who seems to construct each dish with great care and a delicate touch. The staff was warm, welcoming and attentive. They certainly made this Vegan's Birthday a very special one. Can't wait to go back and taste the rest of their menu!
Pros: Excellent, healthy, fresh delicious food, Calm, relaxing ambiance and great staff, Outdoor seating available
Cons: Location needs more sinage.

This location is shown only to members
I attended an event here with LA Asian Foodies a few years ago. It was GOOD! I'm interested to see if there are any changes (better or worse) since the last time I was there.
This is a lunch meetup because dinner is 23.99, and I am sure all of you would prefer 9.99!
We have a choice of a spicy and a non-spicy broth. They have divided pots if you're interested in trying both.
It is vegetarian friendly (probably not vegan) as a large veggie plate comes with the "Genghis Khan" option, which also has Chuck Top Blade. I thought there was a veggie-only option, but assorted mushrooms and extra vegetables can be ordered as sides. So non-meat eaters are welcome!
They are in the same mini-mall as Biergarten, so they are fairly easy to find. There is valet parking and some street parking on Western Blvd.
Here is some reading to pique your appetite
Hope you can join me!
We had a great time and tasted some interesting dishes - including 2 types of shabu shabu meats with various vegetables including crown daisies, enoki mushrooms, nappa cabbage and udon noodles as well as sliced meats. Delicious sauces and a delicious potatoe salad banchan.
To top it off we had the spiciest octopus around - cleared the sinuses and then some! Thanks Andree for revitalizing this great find - Khan!

Pygmy elephant calf desperately tries to wake up dead mother who was one of ten animals found poisoned
- A total of ten of the creatures have been discovered in the Gunung Rara Forest Reserve, Borneo, over the past three weeks
- Conservation officials believe the endangered animals had been poisoned
- Estimated to be fewer than 1,500 Borneo pygmy elephants in existence
Again and again, the baby elephant nudged its mother's head hoping desperately for a sign of movement.
It was to no avail. She had become another victim of a mysterious spate of deaths in the tropical rainforest.
If wildlife officials had not led the three-month-old infant to safety, it would probably have remained beside its mother until it, too, died.
'Great loss': A three-month-old elephant calf attempts to wake its mother; one of ten pygmy elephants found dead in Malaysia's Sabah state
Its distress moved the rescuers to tears, and left them desperate to discover who or what caused the tragedy.
In total, ten Borneo pygmy elephants have been found dead in three weeks at the Gunung Rara Forest Reserve.
The bodies were all near to each other and while poisoning appears to be the likely cause, it has yet to be determined whether it was intentional.
The animals still had their tusks, indicating that they had not been killed by poachers, and none had gunshot wounds.
The reserve's head vet Sen Nathan said the elephants were all thought to be part of the same family group, and were aged between four and 20.
It has been said that Walt Disney
could not have created a cuter creature than Borneo elephants, which
have distinctive baby-faced features, oversized ears and long tails.
They grow to 8ft tall, a foot or two shorter than mainland Asian elephants. Fewer than 1,500 are believed to be in existence.
Attached: The baby elephant sticks close to the body of its mother, while a wildlife department official gives it a drink
Suspicious: Conservation officials believe the elephants, discovered in the Gunung Rara Forest Reserve, had been poisoned
Will Travers, who founded the Born Free Foundation with his actor parents Virginia McKenna and Bill Travers, said: 'I have seen on numerous occasions that where the mother has died and the calf has nowhere else to go, it often stands by her until it too dies. So I'm not surprised by the image but I'm deeply saddened by it.'
He added that elephant calves are not fully weaned until they are three and a half or four. A male is likely to stay with its mother until it is around ten, and a female possibly for life.
Many animal behaviour experts believe that elephants mourn their dead just like humans.
Mr Travers said that a combination of close social bonds, excellent memory and long lifespan leads to the animals experiencing emotions similar to our own.
'We call it grief, in elephant language it is something else, but it is the same emotion.'
'Sad day': A total of seven female and three male pygmy elephants have been found in the forest over the past three weeks
Tragic: The carcasses of the endangered animals were found in the forest over a period of three weeks
Oxford University research found elephants mourn their dead by 'kissing' their bodies with their trunks and even rocking to and fro with grief.
The creatures also show compassion towards the sick and dying, trying to nurse them back to health.
A separate study found that elephants seem to be compelled to visit carcasses over and over again – even when the animal is long dead.
And calves orphaned by poachers are known to suffer nightmares, before losing the will to live and dying of grief.
Elephants are not alone in exhibiting human-like emotions. For instance, magpies hold 'funerals' for fallen friends, laying 'wreaths' of grass along roadside corpses.
And dolphins will stay by the side of stillborn calves for days.

S.L. father-son team makes the final 3 on 'Amazing Race'
CBS Broadcasting
The final three teams in the CBS television show "The Amazing Race: All-Star Edition" include Salt Lake father-son team Dave and Connor O'Leary, who won the 11th leg of the race during Sunday's episode.
Reading clues carefully and driving from place to place in England proved to be key for the duo in this leg of the race.
This season of "The Amazing Race" includes returning teams racing around the world for $1 million by following clues in yellow and red envelopes, navigating transportation and completing challenges called Road Blocks and Detours along the way to get the next clues.
Teams started the leg in Seville, Spain, and because the O'Learys, who are both cancer survivors, won the 10th leg of the race that took teams to and through Seville, Spain, they were the first to open their clue and leave Plaza de Espana.
Their clue told them to make their way to Liverpool, England, first by train to Madrid, then by plane to London and then to drive one of the Ford Focus cars to Liverpool where they had to find Anfield Stadium, home to the soccer team Liverpool FC.
Dave O'Leary, 59, a real estate investor, and his son, 22-year-old Connor O'Leary, who is a professional cyclist and a University of Utah student, had about a half-hour lead on the other teams, and all teams were on the same train and flight into England.
"It's unbelievable to be in the top four," said Dave O'Leary, who is a prostate cancer survivor. The O'Learys are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Holladay 25th Ward, Salt Lake Holladay South Stake. "I feel like I'm running with a bunch of young bulls."
Two of the remaining four teams, country singers Caroline Cutbirth, 30, and Jennifer Wayne, 31, and the Afghanimals, cousins Leo Temory, 27, and Jamal Zadran, 26, made the final four when they competed previously, on Season 22 and Season 23, respectively, and both had been eliminated before making the final three.
Temory and Zadran were the first to make it to Anfield Stadium where teams had to get four penalty shots past professional goalies.
Zadran injured his knee during a challenge in the last leg. He had a brace on it and was able to run, but it bothered him as he kicked his shots.
"We're so excited. We both love soccer. Soccer is one of the biggest sports in Afghanistan," Temory said. "Liverpool is one of the greatest teams they have, and knowing we are going onto the actual field and score some goals on a goalie — like, wow, another dream come true."
Cutbirth and Wayne were second to arrive and were followed by newlyweds Brendon Villegas, 33, and Rachel Reilly, 30, nicknamed the Brenchels. The O'Learys were the last to arrive — just as the Brenchels were leaving.
"Being the last ones to the stadium did not invoke a lot of confidence on our part," Dave O'Leary said. "They could have my grandkids guarding the goal and I couldn't hit it."
Both struggled with the challenge.
"How uncoordinated could I be?" asked Connor O'Leary. And his dad got in two shots before he did: "It humbled me to have my dad beat me."
From there, teams went to Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, known as the stream in the sky, in Wales, and at the Road Block challenge, one of the team members had to work with an instructor to learn and memorize a verse of Welsh poetry during the 15-minute ride on the aqueduct and then recite it to a linguist.

FRIDAY FUNNY: Employee Training With Extra Cheese | Facility Executive - Creating Intelligent Buildings
In the 80s, certain industries went a bit overboard with employee training videos in a desperate attempt to train the largest number of people in the shortest period of time (and at the lowest cost). The results were cringe worthy.
FRIDAY FUNNY: Employee Training With Extra Cheese
Employee training videos. Almost every business uses them, and some are actually pretty helpful. But in the 80s, certain industries–the fast food sector in particular–went a bit overboard in a desperate attempt to train the largest number of people in the shortest period of time (and at the lowest cost). The results were cringe worthy.
This two part series from Wendy's features special effects, an ode to patty flipping in the form of a rap, mirrored sunglasses, and pearls of wisdom from Wendy's Owner Dave Thomas, who delivers brilliant lines like "pressing the hamburger patty requires skill and dedication," and "people like when the burger hangs over the bun."
Check it out:
After this well spent 15 minutes viewing these two tutorials, you'll be ready to flip burgers with the best of 'em. And remember, never serve a burger that's lookin' ratty–not after you've got grill skills.
Ah, the 80s…

Here is the fishing report from the TWRA:
Chickamauga Reservoir: Reservoir Conditions: Summer normal elevation: 682.0 feet. Winter normal elevation: 676.0 feet. Current elevation: 682.5 feet. The water surface temperature is 83 degrees.
Largemouth Bass: Good. Over 20 pounds is winning most evening tournaments. Plastic worms and crankbaits are being used along the grass edges, humps, points, and ledges mostly in the primary areas.
Dale Hollow: Fishing is fair; Water temperature is 83 degrees; lake is falling.
Bass: Several bass are still being caught at night on soft plastics, jigs and spinnerbaits on points in 20 feet of water.
Walleye: Several walleye are being caught while jigging spoons near the dam in 32 feet of water. A few walleye are being caught near Willow Grove while trolling 28 feet of water.
Dale Hollow Tailwaters: Fishing is good.
Trout: Several small trout are being caught near the dam on corn and flies in periods of no- flow. Better trout are being caught downstream near the Island on flies.
Great Falls: Fishing is slow. Water temperature is 83 degrees; river is in summer pool.
Bass: A few bass are being caught at night while using soft plastics on channel banks in 15 feet of water.
Bluegill: A few bluegill are being caught on crickets and nightcrawlers in 15 feet of water on bluffs.
Watts Bar: Reservoir Conditions: Summer normal elevation: 740.5 feet. Winter normal elevation: 736.0 feet. Current elevation: 741.0 feet. The water surface temperature is 83 degrees.
Largemouth Bass: Good. Plastic worms and jigs are being used more than other baits. Primary waters and large secondary around humps and ledges offers the great opportunity.
Smallmouth Bass: Fair. Most are being caught while fishing for largemouth.
White bass: Good. Some surface breaking is occurring. Topwater lures are being used. Humps that break at 15 feet and drop into 25 to 30 feet of water in the primary areas are the best waters to locate. Use spinner-type lures.
Walleye: No reports.
Crappie: Use lights, minnows or jigs, in combination at night.
Catfish: Good. Large water areas in the river and meaty baits will offer the best opportunity.
Striped bass: Good at times. 35 caught by a party early Wednesday in the Ft. Loudon Tailwaters. Shad is the best bait.

Great to see that you loved GaoGaiGar through and through. I forgot to say it to you at MangaNext this past weekend, but it's great to see more positive talk about GaoGaiGar. The latest I ever heard from John Sirabella about licensing GaoGaiGar FINAL, which is even more insane and emotionally touching at the end, was nothing but hesitation... Except when my friend told him straight to his face "I'd pay anything to own GaoGaiGar FINAL." John's immediate response? "Can we have that on tape?"
I can tell that John probably wouldn't mind, and would probably even love, doing FINAL, but I guess the whole dropping of the dub half-way through, the potential TV deal with Disney that went nowhere, and having to release the second half in a collection after a year-long delay probably just made him really hesitant to do more. Even though the show seems to have broken even by now and maybe even made a small profit, it probably still just seems a bit too risky for MB to do... Still, here's hoping.

I enjoyed Occult Academy but it could have either done with being shorter cutting out some of the episodes you talked about (maybe keep a little bonding character building with the girls). It would make it a much tighter over all piece with a lot of action and wouldn't drag on so much.
The other way to have gone would have been a full 26 episodes, doing short arcs for all the characters. I agree JK and Smile could have used some of their own character building. I was also expecting more wacky high-jinks at the school. Had things been built out a bit more all the Bunmei eating awkwardly wouldn't have been so bad (as long as it wasn't also expanded). Also some more building up to the reveal about spoiler[Mikaze being an evil witch with better hints to that] would have been nice.
Overall, I'd give this show a serious 7, it was very entertaining, and I really like the art and animation in it, but the story suffered from some serious problems dragging it down.

Corpse Princess
Damn. I had a feeling this series would close with a whimper. In fact, it seems many series which start off good fizzle midway and crash at the end.
I would think the Japanese would have figured this out by now, but I suppose if the ending has 3 pantsu shots in it, fans consider it worth their purchase.
I mean, how else does one explain this phenomenon?
Never mind.

I'm not surprised in the least that the columnist couldn't grasp that the purpose of the "little girl's ghost" is for Maya to reflect on her own relationship with her father, as well as spoiler[come to the realization that Waldstein Academy was built especially for her].
Anyway, I hated the ending. It was stupid.
You may see it like a donut, but I see it as a donut-hole, where the last 2-3 episodes were a complete and utter failure.

That's interesting, a lot of people seem to consider these two some of the best episodes of the series (including Carl. Saying they're the worst episodes just means you missed the whole point. These episodes are what got Maya back on track and got her to actually care again about finding her father's killers. They build up her background by relating it to a little girl who felt the same way she did and died as a result. They were very important to the series and shouldn't be dismissed as filler just because you didn't like the way a similar story was used in an unrelated series.

You nailed it (and I wish Gainax had), Corpse Princess pulled the Ol' Anime WTF ending, where nothing is resolved. This grievous act is made all the worse when they piss away the spoiler[last ep. on a freakin' flashback of a dead character from the start of show rather than continue the final battle cliffhanger from the previous ep. ] GAINAX! WHERE THE HELL IS MY ENDING?!
I'd love a job as a writer in Japan. Apparently nothing you write has to make sense or follow any sort of narrative structure. What a sweet gig.
And yeah, the repetition; I griped about that last time as well. How many times can we say "Shikabane Hime" in the same breath, sentence or scene?
Occult Academy. Don't get me started. Like you I loved the first ep. It gave me hope... which the rest of the show promptly ground into the dirt under its boot heel. The ending was an improvement but the rest was a meandering mess and criminal waste of potential.
Like you, I loved the goth kid. He was hilarious and I would have liked to see more done with his character, but instead we got Cooking with Booby McGee and The Spineless Whipping Boy with no brain.
I've read better fan fiction than the level of writing I'm seeing from Anime lately.

I disagree with the notion that Corpse Princess was unresolved at the end. As I've said in a different thread, to me, the central dramatic question posed by the show (in the second season) is, "Will Makina accept Kagami as her Contracted Monk?" spoiler[That question is answered. Working together as a team for the first time is there really any doubt that they won't mop up the remnants of the Seven Stars?] Sure, the more conventional thing to do would to have shown that in its entirety, but I didn't miss it.
We found out that spoiler[the "kill 108 Shikabane and go to Heaven" is bullshit,] so that's resolved, as well.
I can understand people not digging where the series ended, but I think it's wrong to suggest that everything was simply left hanging.

That Pikachu comment not only made me laugh in hysterics(for a about a couple seconds), but it sealed the deal on my "on the fence of watching Shikabane or not" predicament.
As for lazy animation, look no further than Birdy the Mighty: Decode 2.
I swear one episode had such.... SH!TTY rendering I thought I would just skip through it! spoiler[And I'm not just talking about for a few minutes, but an ENTIRE scene!!!] Ughhh.....
Sorry Gainax, you may have made me a huge fan of the Eva franchise with Eva 2.0, but I haven't become stupid in the process.
As for Gaogaigar... y'know, I was on the fence on that one too, but my feet were always hanging on the side of watching it.
I just... didn't exactly know what to land my feet on...
Erin's descriptions of where it'll go kinda makes me anxious now. So... I'm ready.
And yes, Occult Academy was almost a 6 but saved itself(barely) with that twist.
I really thought Occult Academy was gonna be the best out of the Anime no Chikara, but... in a way, I'm happy it's So-Ra-No-Wo-To.
Great week Erin! Best column in a while.

I understood that, and I know the character building and reveal were necessary, but they could've done it in a way that involved the plot more directly. When the ghost orphan wasn't Nostradamus' key they should've just moved on with the search. Wasting two whole episodes on that one little story was infuriating. It felt like a bad episode of Scooby Doo.
Haha, it's like Maya is stomping in the viewer's faces with her high heeled shoes.

What does Gainax have to do with Birdy?
I'm glad to see the praise for GGG's dub as I quite enjoyed it a lot as well. And yeah, I had the same reaction when I saw the cover and thought "isn't this kind of a major spoiler?"

Like I said before, I didn't mind the Claymore-esque ending it seemed to be building, what irked me was that instead of just leaving things as spoiler['main-threat thwarted, bad-guys defeated yet not dead' thing while Ore and Makina go rogue,] they decide to fake us out. They make us think that we're going to get to see spoiler[Makina finish off the ones who killed her, say "to be continued" and instead of continuing it they give a back-story of two characters who've been dead for most of the show.] That is a poor handling of storytelling. If they weren't going to show us an actual showdown, then they should have just cut that last minute out of ep 25.
Completely disagree. It came out in the open pretty late, was a very interesting twist, and yet it was just sort of left to flutter in the breeze. Unless I'm mistaken (which I'm fairly sure I'm not), spoiler[by the end of ep 25, with exception of the Monks who knew from the start, only Makina and Ore know of this fate while none of the other Shikabane Hime and contracted Monks know. Also, it was still in effect after the end, nothing was done about it.] It was a new conflict introduced into the story that had no resolution at all.
I actually have to agree. I thought those two episodes were in fact, the most boring and unnecessary episodes of the series. It was an entirely predictable and quite cliched sob-story where I knew exactly how every aspect of it would play out before I saw it. People called it 'touching' or whatever, but I was far less awed. I was more like GET ON WITH IT!!!

Hell yeah, that was my big complaint in the previous thread. It's bad enough that they just kinda leave it off, but then they go and pull that.
I liked the series as a whole, but part 1 was WAY better than part 2 in general, not just cause of the ending. It's almost like the team got 80% of their good ideas out of the way in the first half, and had to manage with what was left. That or a whole different team took over for part 2, it seemed that way sometimes. The difference in quality between parts 1 and 2 is so drastic it aint even funny (I marathoned the whole series in 1 go, so I felt the full force of the drop in quality).
But, smack talk out of the way, the episodes involving buildup to (and resolution of) the apocalypse that Erin mentioned were quite awesome. Kinda like how the buildup to and beginning rounds of the Pieta fight in Claymore set the bar so high that ultimately the end fell flat on its face...

I totally agree with the ugginess of Shikabane Hime's second half- I stopped watching around episode 16 because the writing had just gotten so bad.
Oh, but I kind of remember that the show had a weird production setup: Gainax was in charge of the first 13 episodes ("Aka"), and some other studio (Feel?) was in charge of the last 13 ("Kuro"). So for people drawing Evangelion/Kare Kano/Mahoromatic/Hanamaru Kindergarten comparisons with the ending, that might actually be a coincidence? I might be wrong- correct me if I am.

In all my time as an anime fan nothing infuriates me more than shoddy plotting, weak narrative that lacks focus and cohesion, and paint-by-numbers, lazy writing. In grand anime tradition I'm surprised the shows producers and writers didn't waste two other episodes on a pointless hot springs or summer vacation beach trip.
It's also kind of infuriating that they think such bad storytelling is ok. If my name were attached to this, I'd wanna make sure it was the best it could be, not pad it out with filler or churn out something ham-handedly.
Anime fans in Japan need to start demanding better writing and storytelling.
Yesssss Mistress! *whimpers* May I please have another!

Yannick Agnel is French and clearly has a feel for de ja vu. A night after anchoring the scene-stealing French relay team to gold and in doing so leaving a bereft Australian team medal-less and in shock, Agnel last night again powered to gold and upstaged his stellar rivals including American Ryan Lochte and Sun Yang of China.
In the swim dubbed the race of the century by the world media Agnel not only won convincingly but in doing so a day after stealing gold from America in the relay he elevated himself in the pecking order of world swimming.
The 20-year-old Frenchman has two golds in two nights after he led from the start and surged to win by almost two seconds in the 200 freestyle. China's Yang Sun, the 1500 metre world champion who was seeking to become the first swimmer to win gold in the 200, 400 and 1500 metres, tied with Korean Taehwan Park for silver 1.79 seconds behind Agnel. American Ryan Lochte was left off the podium in fourth place.
Lochte who seemed to be shaping as this year's Michael Phelps after he defeated his record breaking countryman to take gold in the 400m individual medley on the opening night of competition has now twice in two nights been denied by Agnel. Firstly he was denied gold, then tonight he was denied a medal.
"I guess I took it out a little too fast. I knew if I wanted to be in the race I had to go out a little. Next time i won't make that mistake," Lochte said.
"This is one of the deepest fields I've ever seen. First to eighth is like a second difference (in time)," he added of the race that was so strong Michael Phelps pulled out of competition after qualifying in the event.
On Saturday Lochte figuratively and literally overtook his teammate Michael Phelps mantle when he won the 400 individual medley and was then alongside Phelps on the podium to acccept a silver medal in the 4 x 100 relay team that lost to France.
Frenchman Yannick Agnel anchored that triumphant French team on Sunday night and was most significantly the man who was half a body length behind Lochte when he hit the water for that final leg of the relay and overhauled the American to take gold.
Australia's Thomas Fraser-Holmes was pleased with his seventh finish given the quality of the swimmers in the pool.
"I am happy with that, it was a PB and there were four Olympic champions and four world record holders in that event so to race those guys is something that is only going to benefit me in the next four years," Fraser-Holmes said.
"I might have over-cooked the first 50 but I don't mind that, I went out there and gave it my all and that was it tonight and I will be better for the experience for next years."

Today, my two year old cousin was having a temper tantrum. I decided to give him a flashlight because playing with it usually distracts him. It didn't. Instead, he hit me in the face with it as hard as possible, leaving a bruise. FML

Today, I discovered that I had left my sunroof open all night during a storm and my front seats was soaked. I grabbed a towel for my seat but didn't close my sunroof because it was nice out. As I pull out of my driveway, I felt something wet hit my forehead. A bird shit on me through my sunroof. FML

Today, I went to my cousin's communion. We came late and walked to the front of the church where my family was. Everyone stared and laughed but I ignored it. After the service was done my mom came up to me and pulled a long piece of toilet paper out of my skirt. FML

Today, at 4 AM, I locked myself out of my apartment. After calling friends in vain, I decided to just sit on the doorstep and wait for someone to come in. I sat for 10 minutes before a homeless man insisted threateningly that I move. I was kicked off my own front doorstep by a homeless man. FML

Today, I called my mom for the first time in a few weeks, just to chat because I miss her. When she picked up, the first thing she said was, "Why are you calling? What's wrong? Do you have swine flu??" When I told her that I didn't, and I just wanted to chat, she hung up. FML

Today, I drove a drunk Venezuelan exchange student home after a prom party. Notable events: her puking on the way to the vehicle, her yelling in Spanish at the top of her lungs in the car, her puking out the window in the moving vehicle, and her crying because she felt bad for making me drive. FML

Today, my boss hired a feng shui consultant for our small office space. I am the only full-time employee besides the owners, and I work as an unpaid intern. My company would rather pay someone to rearrange my desk than pay me to work at it. FML

Today, I was going to do some laundry, with the washer and dryer I bought off of Craigslist for 150 dollars. The washer leaks and the dryer doesn't dry. So I called the guy and left an angry message about how the washer flooded my kitchen. In fact I just forgot to hook up the drain hose. FML

Today, I went to the beach. I was in the ocean and I looked over my shoulder and saw a big black spot. Knowing that there were big crabs on the beach, I screamed. Everyone in the water heard including the lifeguards. It turns out it was just my shadow. FML
