Stopping a Coworker's Diet Talk
Special Offers
You're at lunch with a coworker who can't seem to stop talking about her fad diet. After half an hour, you're feeling bored and even insulted (she wouldn't go on like this if she didn't think that you were overweight, too). How should you get her to stop?1) Tell her that you want to enjoy your food -- and her company -- and request that she change the topic.
2) Point out that fad diets don't work over the long term without regular exercise.
3) Ask if you are to infer from her incessant diet talk that she feels you need to lose weight.
The correct answer: Speaking your mind is productive if you do so sincerely (1). An honest statement is kinder than the indirect (and somewhat hostile) approach of attacking her all-diet, no-exercise plan. Yes, you could confront her about implicitly criticizing your weight -- but that may be more in your mind than in hers. And besides, you want to end the diet talk, not the friendship.Latest Stories

I value the guardian behavior of our animals as one is charged to protect the other. We have house cats that are free to go outside; barn cats that mostly hang out in the garage; a companion red heeler mutt who rarely leaves my side; and a Maremma livestock guardian dog (LGD). Baxter, the LGD, has challenged our thinking in owning dogs. He has reinforced that animals follow their instinct above all else. He is not a pet, rather a worker that is a critical component to keeping our farm alive.
The Kentucky Industrial Hemp Commission unanimously elected Harrison County farmer Brian Furnish as its new chairman at the close of its meeting on Thursday after Agriculture Commissioner James Comer stepped aside in compliance with Senate Bill 50, industrial hemp legislation that is set to take effect at the end of the month.
This year several farmers are doing a great job of rotating corn fields to soybean fields. No-till is an excellent practice because we take care of weed and disease problems with crop rotation. Only one problem, someone forgot to tell the slugs. The residue from last year's corn crop is a perfect environment for slugs to live and thrive while consuming young soybean plants for their evening meal. While we continue to have moist and cool conditions, slugs will continue to thrive.
On Sunday, June 2, the Harrison County Heritage Council, a sub-group of the Harrison County Historical Society, held its first annual Tea at Ridgeway (aka The Handy House) with guest speaker Christopher L. Starr of Boston, Mass. Starr, the third great -grandson of Ridgeway's original owner and builder, U.S. Congressman Col.William Brown, made the trip to Cynthiana in hopes of encouraging the growing support for the structure's restoration that has increased over the last year.
The Farm Service Agency (FSA) will continue to accept SURE applications for 2011 crop losses through June 7, 2013. The SURE Program provides payments to producers when crop revenues are less than the crop guarantee. For more information call the Cynthiana FSA Service Center, 103 Rodgers Park Dr., 859-234-2646.
Area dairy goat breeders will celebrate Dairy Goat Awareness Week with the American Dairy Goat Association, www.adga.org during the week of June 8-15. The Northern Kentucky Goat Breeders Association will sponsor an information booth and free goat cheese tasting at the Harrison County Farmers Market, Flat Run Veterans Park, on Saturday, June 15 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. You are invited to come taste the goat cheeses of Susan Miller's Bleugrass Chevre. For information call Margaret Arnold at 235-0348.
I absolutely do not approve of killing bees. In fact, we are in a bit of a crisis with a diminishing population with the suspected cause being the use of pesticides, notably neonicotinoids. I do not fear bees, I am not allergic, and I can happily co-exist…..except that they are eating my house! Or, rather they are tunneling into the wood that makes up my house so they can lay eggs and have lots of babies.
The Harrison County Phase I meeting for 2013 will be held Monday, June 3 at 8 p.m. The meeting will be held at the Harrison County Extension meeting room. The program will be an opportunity to receive the 2013 application and discuss changes from previous years. I would encourage you to attend this meeting, if possible. This is not a mandatory meeting. The deadline for returning your application is Monday, June 17 at 4:30 p.m. No exceptions will be accepted.
The Harrison County Ag Development Board met last week and decided to open the application process for the Phase I Program on Monday, June 3 at 8 p.m. This means on that evening the applications will be available to pick up at the county wide meeting. I realize this is a busy time of year with soybeans being planted, hay harvested, and probably tobacco being set. The reason for the delay was created because of the supplication approval process requiring an extended period of time. The following are the times and due dates for the program.
I was in Shepherdsville at Country Corner Greenhouse earlier in the week and picked up some good-looking sweet potato slips that are finally ready for the garden. Up until last week it has been too cold for the southern crop. Sweet potatoes are tropical by nature but can be grown successfully in Kentuckiana as long as we wait until it is warm (night-time temperatures in the 60's). As long as they have 150 frost-free days and some steamy Ohio Valley weather, we should be knee deep in sweet potatoes by Thanksgiving.

"I've always felt like I'm an open book, and yet obviously I haven't been completely," he tells the magazin Caryn Ganz. But he is now: Glenn speaks candidly about his first gay experiences, his band's reaction to his coming out and his complicated relationship with his conservative religion.Artist of the Week: Neon TreesGlenn says he's known he was gay since he was a young child, but kept his sexuality a secret — until now. "I had my crushes on guys throughout high school, but it was never an overwhelming thing until my 20s," he admits. "Then I'd be dating girls and in love with my straight friend and it was the worst feeling in the world." "We were always taught, and I hate this word, 'tolerance,'" he says, regarding his church's stance on homosexuality, which is notoriously fraught. "The only time that felt different was when the Prop 8 thing came up," he says, referring to when the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints spent an estimated $22 million fighting same-sex marriage in California in 2008.Neon Trees talk about wanting to always sound like Neon TreesGlenn started to tell close friends and family members his big news in October 2013, as he was finishing up writing songs for Neon Trees' upcoming third LP, "Pop Psychology," many of which address his years in the closet. Today, he's inspired by the variety of men and women from all corners of pop culture who have been coming out publicly, especially athletes facing high stakes."I really love all of the sports figures that are coming out recently," he says. "I appreciated (that) Michael Sam was like, 'I want to be able to go to the movies and hold hands with my boyfriend.' Even hearing him say 'boyfriend,' I was just like, that's cool."Read the full story for reaction from Glenn's Neon Trees bandmates and his mother, plus Glenn's take on straight artists acting as the gay community's spokespeople and his explanation of the events that led to his big coming out.See the original story at RollingStone.com.More from showbizPitbull's cross-cultural appealHow much sin can Bourdain take?Bill Cosby facing litany of allegationsPowered by Livefyre

Okay, I'm in the preliminary design phases for this extract recipe and I have never developed my own recipe from scratch so I need all the advice I can get. Here's what I have so far: 4lbs Munton's Light DME 3lbs Munton's Amber DME 1/2lb Crystal 60 1/2lb Pale Malt 2-row 1oz Roasted Barley 1.5 oz amarillo for 60 min 1 oz amarillo for 15 min 1 oz amarillo for 1 min My only thought is that I may want to increase the initial hops to 2 oz but I'm not a huge hop-head so I don't know. Also, the specialty grains were taken from a clone recipe and I don't know what the benefit of the 2-row is since I thought that had to be mashed? Anyway, all recommendations are appreciated. My favorite IPAs are Harpoon's and DFH 60 Minute.
What most people think of as "hops" in a beer are the flavor and aroma hop adds. Bittering hop adds tend to be large to balance the ABV and sweetness of the crystal. 1.5 oz. of Amarillo should be about the right bittering for the gravity. 2-row does need to be mashed. For that small a quantity, just aim for 154F with 2-3 quarts of water & 30 minutes. Otherwise, treat it like you were steeping. Call it a micro-mash.
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!" "I would like to die on Mars, just not on impact." Elon Musk
JD, I brewed a beer from a recipe I got at my LHBS recently that's very similar to your recipe. It called for 8 lbs of light LME and used 0.5 lbs of victory and 0.5 lbs of crystal malt as specialty grains. I used 1 oz of Nugget hops at the start of the boil and then 1 oz of amarillo hops at 15 minutes left, 5 minutes left, and flameout. It was a very good beer. I think that your recipe will be fine as it is unless you are looking for a really hoppy beer. Next time I might try a different hop (Simcoe maybe?) but I was very happy with how my beer turned out. Darren
So, I'm thinking of upping the fermentables and splitting the last hop addition into two with .5oz for 5 min and .5oz at flameout. Next questions is, what yeast do you guys recommend? I have a packet of wyeast american ale II that I thought might work, but suggestions are appreciated.
If you are hoping to steep and not mini-mash, you should replace the 2-row with another specialty malt that will add a little character. Maybe a little bit more crystal. You can balance out the color by adjusting your light vs. amber dme amounts.
Every pirate lives for something different. For some, it's the open sea. For others (the masochists), it's the food. For you, it's definitely the fighting. Two things complete your pirate persona: style and swagger. Maybe a little too much swagger sometimes -- but who really cares? Arr!
I personally don't like using anything but light extract. I like to get all of my color and flavor from specialty malts instead. I find it gives me more control over the final product. I find using software like promash indispensible when formulating recipes. It will calculate IBUs and gravity and color for you. I think formulating recipes without it is like flying in the dark with no instruments.

ayyia new hindi movies watch onlineAlka and her Bhabhi Rekha Chapter 01 p 9"Really we danced like this," Alka told holding Chintu very tightly.
"Come on Chintu hold me like u held me when this babe was inside," this babe winked at him. "Bhabhi has given her word that this babe won't scold us." They hugged every other like 2 paramours in a Hindi video. "How can u move if u hold every other so tightly?" "I don't know. I said u the truth." Alka looked at Rekha for any signs of disapproval of their actions. Hunter and the HuntedI was having a chat to somebody latterly about the way online flirtation works, and this babe confirmed my suspicions to me.
"We are the hunted, and you're the hunters," this babe told, and certainly it's so true. And it's probably as it should be and as old a story as Cromagnon guy. Guy watch woman. Guy desire woman. Guy grunt. Woman scream and run away. Guy chase. Woman catches stiletto in undergrowth. Surprise visitYou're sitting at your computer. It's early afternoon. You've eaten smth and u should go take a nap. But not this day. You're to stressed. I've not allowed u to climax for a entire month. The final week I've been hinting at a award for this day. You're so lascivious you're afraid when u go lay down for a nap u will just make yourself climax in your sl**p.
So now you're at the computer during the time that u should be in daybed, resting. This babe takes over in the bedroom Pt1 p 3I hadn't ever seen Jess like this in advance of and knew sufficiently from watching movies online not to piddle off a woman in this position.
With me widen out very ready in front of her, this babe applied what felt to be a generous amount of lube to my butt and began finger fucking me. This babe started with just one but quickly moved up to four. I suppose all of that training I gave myself was about to pay off. RajWhat a hawt son of whore he was. This guy started right in on the subject of fucking and engulfing. There was no thing holding him back. His large charcoal eyes, broad shoulders and six foot one hard body had me juicy in advance of this guy even opened his throat. It was Saturday afternoon on a hawt Fresh Delhi teach heading towards the airport. I was reading my 1st Hindi novel that shook the draws right off my beautifully shaped butt.
Brad can not go back p 4His mother was already sl**ping so this guy quietly went to his bedroom and open his computer. As pretty soon as it opened Brad jumped to the keyboard and went online on the web page. MASTERDON was online and Brad who was now very angry that somebody was menacing him wrote:
'What do u desire from me u bastard?' MASTERDON says: ' Tsch tsch not very polite u doxy, u were so much nicer in our previous talk. Carmel p 2We the one and the other went quiet afresh trying to digest what this meant.
'So I suppose u're Carmel", I asked . 'Er….I'm ….er Carmel yep", mommy sounded nervous too. 'These movies were of u?" I asked 'Er….Yup" this babe told looking down at her hands. 'Are these movies I've of u?" this babe asked. 'Yeah", I told equally confused. Encounter a youthful white man from online (Andy) Pt 1I had been talking to a youthful man from online for about 6 months this guy was 23 and with me being 39 I at no time thought we would really meet, this guy was joy to chat with and we swap several pics and even had ciber movie sex on some other sight jointly.
In any case in March we the one and the other had birthdays the same month within a not many days of some other and this guy kept asking if we could lastly meet and celebrate our birhdays jointly this guy was ready to come the Three hours to meet me and after a little prodding I decided to let him after all I figured I could handle him if everything went the wrong way. Greater amount Large Dark Dicks For Beverly p 7The snap of a camera made Beverly look up in surprise; this babe saw Sammy, nude with his biggest dick hard and pointed right at her, snapping pics of her as this babe took a dark dick in the one and the other her throat and vagina at one time.
The thought of having picture evidence of being used by those dark guys made Beverly tingle all over. This babe loved to look at dilettante porn pics and movies online and imagine it was her, now here this babe was, getting screwed by 2 guys during the time that some other photographed her. When It Rains It Pours p 2So I got on my scooter and drove for about half a km when putt..puttt..putt...hisssss. The scooter engine just stopped with some ominous noises. I tried to restart it. Even tried the manual kick-start. Didn't work. Great. As if things couldn't receive any worse. Now I was moist to my skin, with my scooter and cell phone refusing to work, stranded on a deserted road at nearly 11 pm. I stood there re-evaluating the option of flagging down a car.

U.S. men convicted in Iran as spies head home
Sep 24, 2011, 7:38 p.m.
MUSCAT (Reuters) - Two U.S. citizens sentenced in Iran to eight years in jail for spying left for the United States on Saturday from Oman, where they had landed after being released by Iranian authorities.
Josh Fattal and Shane Bauer, who were arrested while hiking along the Iraq-Iran border in 2009 and denied being spies, flew to Oman two days ago, after officials there helped secure their release by posting bail of $1 million.
"I can't express our joy enough of being here in Oman after the experience we have been through. The joy will stay with us forever," Bauer told reporters at Muscat airport, before he and Fattal left Oman for the United States.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad agreed to their release last week, saying it was a humanitarian gesture before his annual trip to the U.N. General Assembly in New York.
Both were arrested in July 2009 near Iran's border with Iraq along with another American, Sarah Shourd. The trio, in their late 20s and early 30s, said they were hiking.
Shourd was released on $500,000 bail a year ago and allowed to fly home, but the two men were sentenced to eight years in prison last month after a trial held behind closed doors.
"Our gratitude to His Majesty Sultan Qaboos of Oman for his efforts that led to our release," Fattal said. "We would like to come back to Oman someday in happier circumstances."

ABC News' Alexandra Ludka and Suzan Clarke report:
A tweet by pop star Justin Bieber has a Texas woman wishing for the singer's apology.
Bieber tweeted an invitation for followers to "call me right now" along with a telephone number that had a question mark in place of the missing final digit.
Of course, that didn't stop the tween idol's enterprising fans, 19 million of whom follow him on Twitter. Many of them filled in the blank and ended up reaching 88-year-old Dilcie Fleming of Dallas.
In an interview with ABC News Wednesday, Fleming said she's been inundated with calls from fans seeking to talk Bieber.
"I had no idea what was going on," Fleming said. "I was told that this young man put a number up on the tweeter, or whatever it's called, but left off the last digit. People were punching in until they got an answer."
It got so bad that Fleming said she had to remove her phone from her bedroom.
"You kind of get upset and frustrated, you know," she said. "It's just a constant thing. I feel so sorry for these young girls. I may have been out of line but I told one of them girls I talked to, 'He doesn't care about you. You're just making money for him.'"
The pressure created by the March 7 tweet has eased somewhat, but Fleming said she still gets many hang-up calls. She has changed her recorded message to indicate that her number does not belong to Bieber.
Fleming consulted an attorney, but told ABC News that she has no plans to sue, as was reported earlier by other media outlets.
She called the attorney to ask for help in reaching Bieber, she said.
"I'd just like to have an apology in writing," Fleming added.
She'll also take concert tickets.
"I have grandchildren – and a 6-year-old great-granddaughter," she said.
Asked if she planned to change her phone number, Fleming responded with an emphatic negative.
"I've had this number since 1966 and I'm not about to change it," she said. "I think if this young man would put out that this was an error and he apologized, maybe people would quit calling."
Fleming isn't the only recipient of calls intended for Bieber. At least one other area resident has gotten calls from the fans known as Beliebers.
One man told CBSDFW.com that he still gets calls around the clock.
"Recently, I'm even getting calls from India. They want Justin Bieber to come to India," he said.

Outstanding achievement and well deserved! His advancements in the area of nanotechnology relating to drug delivery is truly changing lives today!
Feb. 10, 2011
AUSTIN, Texas — Keith P. Johnston, chemical engineering professor in the Cockrell School of Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin, has been elected to the National Academy of Engineering (NAE), one of the highest professional distinctions accorded to engineers worldwide.
With this year's election, the academy includes 2,290 members and 202 foreign associates.
Johnston was elected for his advances in science and technology of particles and colloids used in drug delivery, biomedical imaging and therapy, microelectronics and energy applications. He holds the M.C. (Bud) and Mary Beth Baird Endowed Chair in the Department of Chemical Engineering and has been a professor at the university since 1982.
"Dr. Johnston's election to the academy recognizes his valuable research and teaching that focuses on how to improve chemical processes that affect daily life," said Gregory L. Fenves, dean of the Cockrell School. "His research addresses such diversified areas as improving chemotherapy treatments, advancing the efficiency of high density electrical storage (for hybrids and electric cars) and decreasing chemical waste in our environment."
The Cockrell School has a tradition of faculty members who have been elected to the academy. The school's senior faculty constitute the fourth highest membership in the organization in the U.S. The Department of Chemical Engineering includes eight academy members.
"What's amazing about Dr. Johnston is his creativity and fearlessness. Every five or six years he plunges into a new research area, like green chemical processing or enhanced drug delivery, and he makes major contributions to all of them," said Department of Chemical Engineering Chair Roger Bonnecaze. "He is one of the reasons our department's research activities are on the forefront of science and technology and we are a top five program."

Four Christmases (2008)
Critics Consensus: Despite a strong cast, this sour holiday comedy suffers from a hackneyed script.

Movie Info
When upscale, happily unmarried San Francisco couple Kate and Brad find themselves socked in by fog on Christmas morning, their exotic vacation plans morph into the family-centric holiday they had, until now, gleefully avoided. Out of obligation--and unable to escape--they trudge to not one, not two, but four relative-choked festivities, increasingly mortified to find childhood fears raised, adolescent wounds reopened and their very future together uncertain. As Brad counts the hours to when he … More

All Critics (145) | Top Critics (34) | Fresh (36) | Rotten (107) | DVD (5)
About as predictable as socks under the tree.
It's too sparse in the comedy to be really successful--every good joke is in the commercials--but it's got some heart and that counts for something.
Maybe if Four Christmases had extended itself beyond white trash targets and projectile vomiting, we could've been talking about a new Christmas classic right now.
Movie-goers heading to see the romantic comedy Four Christmases might want comedy, Christmas cheer and chemistry, but nobody gets everything on his wish list.
How many Academy Award winners can a studio put in one cast and still turn out a bad movie?
Although not a yuletide classic, Four Christmases is better than most of the holiday-oriented slop put out in recent years.
For all of its snarky holiday/family bashing, Four Christmases wimps out in the third act and reaffirms all the traditional values it affects to mock.
Maybe catch one of the other hundred holiday films to be offered over the next few weeks and wait for Four Christmases to come to your local Red Box.
Grows tired long before the end credits start rolling at the 80-minute mark.
There is no spark to the humor, there is no warmth to the drama. There is a tired plot that whips the essence of every Christmas movie ever made into a dreary slog
Feels like they wanted to make 5 different holiday movies and couldn't decide which plot line was best, so they rolled them all together, glossing over everything.
Projectile baby vomiting is a recurring gag. I cried mistletoe well before the film was halfway through.
Feels both too cluttered and too safe.
This is marginally better than most, with a few offbeat comic ideas, a reliably droll performance from Vaughn, and, as the parents, four watchable old troupers in search of a fat paycheck.
You can see most of the big slapstick set-pieces looming long before they hit but there are a few smaller routines that pack a punch just because they have an unexpectedly manic tilt to them.
An embarassment for all involved.
Four Christmases boasts one of the most impressive casts ever assembled to make a movie that is, at best, only mildly amusing.
A good start to the holiday season.
Filled with 'hilarious' scenes of people being vomited on and falling off roofs, Four Holidays tries to meld nasty, black-hued comedy with warm sentiment, resulting in a sick melange of treacle and malice.
An imperfect storm of horrible writing, awkward casting and questionable taste gathers soon after the opening credits and dumps downpours of buzz-killing humour at depressingly regular intervals.
Audience Reviews for Four Christmases
Where is the message? What has it got to do with Christmas? What were the makers trying to achieve? How long is a Californian day? These questions and disappointment are pretty much all you are left with after viewing this 'Christmas' film. Very few redeeming features.
MoreSuper Reviewer
Good rom com about a perfect couple who enjoy spending time with each other and not their families. They both come from broken divorced families and are forced to spend Christmas with each family member when their flight to Fiji is cancelled. Good cast and storyline.
MoreSuper Reviewer
This actually isn't too bad, I thought it would be a horrible mess of cuddly, kissing family fun but its quite dark in places and pretty funny in others. Its not GREAT but its certainly one of Mr Vaughan's better films recently, Witherspoon is just annoying as usual.
It starts off well when they both visit Robert Duvall (Vaughan's dad) and wreck the house, then the next stop after that where Vaughan's old school buddy is screwing his mum LOL! probably the best scenes are there. The third stop at Witherspoons mum is also good, where all the women in the house (granny n all) seem to be sexually active towards Vaughan hahahaha
After that it does go down hill fast and very predictable towards the soft cuddly ending, shame cos it really kicks off as a 'National Lampoon' style fun film....not bad stuff.

- I never had a sexual thought of your mom until I was thirty.

They were found dead at their home early Tuesday by officers responding to a welfare call.When a piano mover arrived Tuesday at the house, he found an ammunition clip wedged in the doorway and Mary Brumback's body inside, police said.On March 13, 2008, 11-year-old Thomas Hunter and his family's housekeeper, Shirlee Sherman, were found dead in the Hunters' home in Omaha, according to the FBI.The boy's father, Dr. William Hunter, was then and is still faculty member in Creighton's 12-person pathology department. He did not immediately return a call from CNN, but he told the Omaha World-Herald that he wondered if the same person could have been responsible.Just WatchedStudents remember murdered professor replayMore Videos ...Students remember murdered professor 01:21PLAY VIDEOJust WatchedCreighton professor, wife found deadreplayMore Videos ...Creighton professor, wife found dead 02:15PLAY VIDEO"It's just a thought that comes by," he told the newspaper.His wife, Dr. Claire Hunter, an associate professor in Creighton's cardiology division, also did not immediately return a call.A cold-case unit is assisting to determine whether there is a connection between the cases, police said.Brumback's colleagues "described him as a perfectionist who was very popular with his students and other faculty," the school said on its website."When I heard the news last night, I was literally shaken," Laura Neece-Baltaro, a friend of the Brumback family, told CNN affiliate KETV.She met them when they all lived in Oklahoma in the 1990s."Why would anyone want to harm them? They did so much for the community here, and the community in Oklahoma City and they were still contributing. They still had a lot to give back," she said."It's a terrible loss to the whole world that they're no longer with us."A prayer service was held Thursday at the school for the couple. Students wore white coats in tribute."It's just kind of shocking to have somebody that seemed so full of life and invincible taken so suddenly," said Creighton medical student Justin McCarthy, KETV reported.More from usFamily drowns while vacationing in Dominican Republic Lights out for San Francisco's Bay BridgePowered by Livefyre

I'm Ryan (yes I am a Girl) and I have been watching anime since I was in middle school, me and my best friend cant wait to come home from school everyday just so we can watch anime. I am a big collecter in both anime and manga and I love all genres of it ~ And I'm so happy to find a site that I could keep track of all the anime and manga I've watched/read :)
I am now an offical college student :)
P.S. I'm also a hard-core video gamer! :P (Mostly RPG - feels like i'm playing an anime!
Currently Playing:
Currently Reading:
I'm typically a universal type of person and pretty much like anything including anime genres, I espcially love it when it has a little bit of everything, so ask me to watch it and I'll probably do it sometime or another...
11,773 total episodes
Ello <3! Its been tooooo long again T_T
I swore I already replied but maybe too much egg nog XD… HOLIDAY EDITION!
Yeah this year went by super fast, I hope next year slows down a bit. BUT! it can speed through the rest of winter and I wouldn't mind! Honey in tea is the best, but I don't try it on many other dishes. Speaking of bread I've been making a ton of bread at home lately, it goes bad so fast! I wonder what they even put in store bread to make it last so long :D
Get anything fun for the Holidays? I got a couple gifts but mostly boring...though I spoiled myself a bit!
I got a bunch of amazon gift cards which I will probably buy anime and games with :d
I got some drawing supplies so now I have even less of an excuse to not draw =( lol oh well Its something I want to do!
Sadly I also got tons and tons of various types of candy haha like a kid. I'm going to gain like 50 pounds before the end of the year!
I had this fun idea that we would give eachother some stuff to watch for the holidays! Since time is short how bout we do one short series or 1 movie!! I demand you watch Time Of Eve! Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrfqzoxH_d8
It could be something you think i'd like or you know I would never watch otherwise :d
We can even do a couple of these if ya want! Along side our watch together stuff.
--Onwards to K-ON!! --
Yeah we'll watch the movie after this season is over.
I'm like you in that I don't really like the OP but I never skip it. I do like the ED though its pretty fluffy!
This show so far to me is really underrated haha The interaction between the characters in this show and the subtle changes and the behaviors and general comradery between them is really really good. You can imagine in your head what a scene will be like between any two characters which I like.
I feel kinda bad for Azusa! Shes going to be all alone at the end of the year +(( I hope they get new members! lol the purchase of the turtle was so random and made me laugh...they coulda done so much with the money! Yeah poor Mio no one ever litsens to her…shes really loves music the most I think and maybe Mugi likes music the least…! The side characters are kinda cool in this show in general, im happy they keep showing up and arent just grey shadow figures like in some shows lol
Mio getting scared of everything is the best! Everyone picks on her for it haha... I wonder if she'll get over it ever. Ui is the best, I was not a good older brother when compared to her :D I wonder if she will ever join the band!
I think you can probably watch up till ep18 if you havent finished it yet since I took forever(or even 24 if you watched ahead)! So far though this show is def way better than I expected it to be.
Anime News:
I can't get over that its over =(( but I guess we have the movie to look forward to :D
Your collection of books i bet is all neat and organzied :D mine looks like someone invaded a wizards library and left everything a mess.
Well im glad im not stalking alone :D I haven't been super active this last month with the family visits and shit >.> but you can return to you scheduled stalking at your leasure :D I'm still torn on the out of 5 rating system though haha whats your views on numeric review systems?
I'm not sure if i can even care about Aldnora anymore, the ending to me was such bullshit that I wont be able to care about the characters in the show anymore and I dont like many of them to begin with haha
Kara no Kyoukai was just so damn pretty I think i might even re-watch it soon.
Still need to watch GITS: ARISE but im glad it doesn't seem as terrible as it could be!
WIXOSS to me is just awesome because its a good show that happens to be a card game and not just a commercial. I still need to catch up with this season though im a couple episodes behind so hopefully it doesn't go off the rails.
Akame ga Kill ending was so wtf which was appropriate for the show. Im so salty the beast girl got killed in possibly the most absurd death ever lol for no reason at all.
I'll prbly chime in next time with more top list but I'll toss my top 5 anime on here for funz!
1. Ping Pong the Animation
2. Mushishi
3. Sidona no Kishi
4. Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Budget!
5. ShiroBako
Honorable Mentions: Log Horizon s2, Haikyuu!!, Baby Steps and Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei (The Irregular at Magic High School)
The ugly: Rail Wars!
Shirobako, K-ON!!, Rage of Bahamut: Genesis, Log Horizon 2, Naruto (sniff sniff), Unlimited Blade Works, WIXOSS.
I'm still just reading Isaac Asimov and i'll prbly start trying to read some manga(gasp!) What should I start with :D ? I'm thinking of Gantz!
A bit shorter than It felt like but replies will totally be fast this time I swear-this has never gone wrong before!! =X
Mata ne. ~
Ello ^_^
Man this year has flew by so fast!! I guess it's because I'm talking time off to figure things out. When you have nothing you "have" to do weeks just melt away T_T I made it to level 60 in Bravely Default, the game is pretty fun and I'm about to finish chapter 3! I don't know if I like the main character or the main girl the other 2 are cute together though!
I don't know which OVA to watch... is it the Come with Me!! Live Concert one? I'll have to watch that one.
Everything is so moe! The second half of the first season I really noticed how good this show looked. They really put the budget in.
I'm not sure that Yui is a human ahah she's just a blob that blobs around :D I'm having a hard time saying the different names "yui and ui" sound so similar >.< I'm never going to pick up on Japanese haha
Ui is pretty awesome I thought she would be barely focused on but she shows up alot! Makes me wonder what it woulda been like to have a little sister as well, I have two brothers! I would totally trade one for a sister haha
Mugi is the best, I felt her pain as well when she was trying to work and I like that she doesn't need to work but is still trying too! Her character is awesome :D Mugi just wnna have fun!
I think Mio on her own is probably the least interesting character but with the Ritsu (her getting jealous and stuff) she ends up being important still! Ritsu has so much energy and makes me laugh a ton! Azu-nyan is just mini mio :D I wonder if she will grow! I did like the scene with her and the cat though!
Hmm what do we watch now? the movie and start season 2? This show is confusing!
Anime News:
In my head I still can't get over the fact that Naruto is going to end T_T. I think its possible the will have another show after it though. The movie seems like its set a couple years after whatever events happen at the end so at least we have that.. ( Hinata x Naruto for life =x)
I have the entire Pandora Hearts Soundtrack but I haven't never seen the show, seems pretty :D Sucks that its ending! Do you read your stuff online or do you have a giant wall of books.
Speaking of things ending I think that its probably for the best for things to end sub-50 episodes. Rare exceptions like GITS and such but I think the quality will start to suffer after awhile…BUT! I think that there is a threshold that after a show has already suffered some quality decline that you should probably just keep it going (like Naruto and Bleach) haha random ramble!
On the subject of Tokyo Ghoul (You've watched that by now probably) What did you think about the last episode XD?
Terror in Resonance is probably going to be remembered just for its visuals and feelings and I think in the end I enjoyed watching it just seems like a bit of wasted potential story wise etc.
CATCH UP ON KORRA ITS FREAKING AMZING :D Some crazy shit is going down in the show I think her new hair suits her! Bah I can't talk about anything without spoilers :D
Detective Conan is insanity he coulda just grown back up by now!
Looking over your currently watching, I prbly should watch more space dandy! Do you enjoy s2? Enjoying Black Lagoon? (Revy ftw)
oh you was watching Aldnora!! HOW BOUT THAT LAST EPISODE AYE =XXX
You should def watch all the Kara no Kyokai stuff, its pretty solid even if its a bit confusing! Hmm I like the idea of you watching Arise so you can tell me if its bad and I don't ruin my GITS :D
Hmm you reminded me I need to watch season 2 of WIXOSS! Also Akame ga Kill is so absurd but it's kinda fun to watch i guess? ;p
Currently Watching:
Shirobako: I love this show! It's about a girl working in the Anime industry on the business side! This is kinda what I want to do for a living (since I lack amazing art talent!) and is otherwise a cute show, check it out!
Rage of Bahamut/Genesis : This show is a surprise for me I didn't think I would like it but I do, kinda reminds me of Samauri Champloo for some reason haha
Unlimited Budget Works : Holy shit this show looks so good! And for this remake they are adapting the material so much better, def need to check this out as well!
Naruto, Fairy Tail and Korra. I will probably pick up... Log Horoizon S2, WIXOSS and Mushishi since they have new stuff out this season as well but haven't watched it yet!
I'm Jelly of your milestones! 1000/500 is a ton of stuff! I need to catchup T_T
Welp hopefully this was somewhat readable!
Mata ne! <3
Whoops part of your message is inside my last one :D I always delete it as I reply but I missed something this time --.--I wish you could edit post and that the comment system had a bigger editor!
Hihi ^_^
I don't even remember the old site anymore, adjusted quickly :DD
This must of got lost like a bunch of times, sorry for delay I always forget and close the window while im putting it together!
Genshiken Nidaime (6-12) <-- I watched them all lol
Oguie kinda took a backseat for the second half of the season but I liked her alot still. Honestly everyone just grew on me and it was a good end to the show I think! Mirei so fun X_XSo much BL stuff but I still really liked the show! Was interesting how basically the entire cast changed slowly, I wonder how many other shows could pull something like that off.
I love Su ^^ every now and then I recongnized a quote she shouted out. She quoted Bakemonogatari at one point lol.
Whoot I'm happy you get to go first for awhile :D its more fun if we swap. I can see how this show started the cute anime trend they are pretty good at moe lol
Yui reminds me of pudding and is useless :D but adorableMugi is pretty cute but she seems kinda passive compared to everyone elseMio and Ritsu are fun together I think I enjoy this pair the most since they always fight :D and Mio is always scared of things. I think my favorite part of the show is when Mio gets scared of the barnaclesI like that the teacher had to get blackmailed ot help them :D i wonder if they will use that picture aganist her again!
The music is pretty good so far and I like how the preformance seem to get a special music video as well :D
So far K-ON is as expected, we got lots to go though :D hopefully some developments happen!
Anime News:
I guess the biggest news is that Naruto is going to end in like a month, crazy that i've been following that show for like 10 years.... I hope it ends well :d I finished up all the shows I was watching Toyko Ghoul was pretty crazy in the final episode eh?? And Terror In Resonace was a bit worse than I thought, didnt like five at all and she dragged the show down for me =/ And everything else ended well so that was a good season of anime I think :D KORRA IS BACK WHOOT! Best showwww Clearly its Korra x Asami =X
I havent watched the Wind Rises yet but I really want to, glad you like it :D I havent decided what imma watch from this season stuff yet but for sure Log Horizion season 2 and the new Fate remake! Ive been rewatching a bunch of anime movies with my brothers lately, reliving Ghost in the shell etc. its amazing how well they hold up
Prbly pretty short message, but I want to go watch more K-on!
Mata ne~ <3
Hisashiburi~ :D Length is never an issue with us! Write as much as you want! hmmhmm quick reply this time muahah :d
Yeah its a nice re-design, though I wish they would let you organize the hated/liked characters actually shown instead of just alpha order... >.> oh well maybe with time!
I am starting Xillia today finally! I would recommend a kindle;paperwhite, its affordable and good to read in the dark with :D Let me know when you get one and i'll send ya a-ton of books!
haha I should pay more attention to spelling and such but I'm so lazy when typing to friends :D Typing with nails seems like it would be very annoying T_T.
Genshiken Nidaime episodes 1-7 ( I think we should watch half at a time maybe, unless its really long :D then maybe like 5-8)
This show is do different now than before, but I still like it! Ogiue is pretty cool still but I think I like Rika now, her glasses are cute and she is evil :D This show is like trap city now as well haha, I like how the old characters are sticking around and making random appearances. Strange that Ogiue and Sasahara seem to be dating now? It's implied pretty heavily.. either way I guess thats awesome :D
I think my favorite moments are when Rika brings her little sister over and has her pretend to be her big brother, the expression on Rika's & Mirei faces during the exchange had me laughing :D
I hope you enjoyed the change of pace for the show as well. The OP and ED are forgettable I think...since i don't remember if I like them or not ha!
Oh and I liked how Angela does seem to actually care about Madarame, he should of totally had a fun time with her, he's had bad luck in the show! bahh oh well :D
And Su is cool to have around haha. Shes like a pet!

Other animu news!
I'm always so impressed with your rewatch powers, I can't even manage my time(which i have tons of at laest for the month or so) to watch normal amounts of shows haha Probably because i'm so addicted to certain video games.
Black Lagoon is so badass, Revy is the best! It reminds me alot of cowboy bebop for some reason. I should start SAO2 but i haven't seen the other ones yet =x
This season I'm watching:
The awesome:

It sticks to a widow and holds an iPhone. It appears to do both of these things well. No,it doesn't hold an iPhone inside of any kind if case, but it doesn't claim to either.
This is a great windshield mount. I was replacing one where the suction cup had worn out, and this product is much sleeker and compact than the old one. Windshield suction is strong, and the iphone mount is secure, so I'll never worry about my iphone falling off/out. Couple things to note: If you have an external case on your iphone, I doubt it will fit (not a problem for me), and the coil/bendy thing is pretty stiff - but that prevents the phone from flopping all over the place when you're driving. All and All, great product and I'm very happy with it. (Price isn't too bad either).
It's a nice lil gadget but not feasable for most iPhone owners. 85% of owners have some sort of case or cover on their iPhone and this is not compatible with a case or cover. It was a waste of $****
This winshield mount holder for the iphone 4 is not worth the money I paid for it. First of all, it DOES NOT fit if you have a case on your.... and most people have cases on their phone because it is an expensive electronic gadget. Second, the plastic is so cheap that when I tried to insert my phone into the holster (after I had removed my case, of course) the clip on the holder broke. I would not waste your money on this product!!!

stepping the mast will take what, 30 minutes on a good day when all of the moons are aligned, to 2 hours, depending how many adult beverages are consumed before the task is completed.
In addition to stopping the whale behind you, have an 18-wheeler fly by at 70 mph and see what happens to the tow vehicle... can you say conga line?
Another thing... pulling the 2600lb to 4000lb beached whale out of the water on a greasy 20-30 degree ramp with 6 guys waiting to haul out their 40k, 19 ft bass boats ain't gonna be fun. I'm not saying you can't do it, i'm asking... wheres the fun?

Leighton board loses independent in shake up
PUBLISHED: 13 Jun 2014 10:58:00 | UPDATED: 14 Jun 2014 03:54:01PRINT EDITION: 13 Jun 2014David Jurd, who previously ran Lend Lease's Abigroup construction business but left the company in 2012 after an investigation into accounting discrepancies, will run Leighton's construction division.

Leighton Holdings has lost one of its few remaining independent directors after Michael Hutchison, the only director to stay after Hochtief's $1.2 billion takeover, resigned.
Leighton received a letter of resignation from Mr Hutchison on Friday. His resignation is effective immediately.
Mr Hutchison was one of several new directors brought onto Leighton's board last year by former chairman Bob Humphris.
Although three other recent independent directors – Paula Dwyer, Russell Higgins and Vicki McFadden – resigned at Leighton's annual general meeting last month, Mr Hutchison remained on the board.
His resignation leaves only two independent directors on Leighton's seven-member board, which is now chaired by Leighton chief executive Marcelino Fernandez Verdes.
In with then new
Russell Chenu, a former chief financial officer of building materials group James Hardie, and Trevor Gerber, a director of Sydney Airport and former treasurer of shopping centre group Westfield Holdings, both joined Leighton's board this week.
Mr Hutchison's resignation came as Leighton appointed former Grupo ACS executive Angel Muriel to run its new public-private partnerships division as it announced existing management would be retained to lead other divisions.
Mr Muriel, who was recently put in charge of Leighton's merger and acquisition activities, is expected to work closely with Spanish parent ACS to develop the company's public-private partnerships business and bid for infrastructure projects.
ACS, which is ranked by Public Works Financing newsletter as the world's leading developer of transportation public-private partnerships ahead of the Macquarie Group and Spanish tollroad group Abertis, wants a specialist PPP business so Leighton can better manage risk.
"We need to have people experienced in managing PPPs and being aware of the risks that PPP contracts involve," Leighton chief executive Marcelino Fernandez Verdes said this week after outlining plans to restructure the company into four divisions.
The PPP division will tend for civil works and building contracts as well as mining contracts. Leighton companies have already teamed up with ACS subsidiaries to work on local PPPs such as Sydney's North West Rail Link, and Mr Fernandez Verdes plans to extend the co-operation further.
Abigroup chief re-takes top role
As well as a new PPP division, Mr Fernandez Verdes is creating divisions focused on construction, mining and engineering.
Bruce Munro, the current managing director of Thiess, will lead Leighton's mining division, while Craig Laslett, the current managing director of Leighton Contractors, will lead its engineering division.
David Jurd, who previously ran Lend Lease's Abigroup construction business but left the company in 2012 after an investigation into accounting discrepancies, will run Leighton's construction division.
Mr Jurd was one of several former Lend Lease executives stood down in September 2012 after discrepancies in Abigroup's accounts were identified by an internal audit. He joined Leighton Contractors as executive general manager of infrastructure in July 2013.
Macquarie Capital has been hired to consider a possible sale of John Holland, which has $4.7 billion in annual revenues and could bring in $1 billion, and Leighton's services businesses.
Ben Brownette, analyst at the Commonwealth Bank of Australia, said the US KBR engineering group, Korea's Samsung C&T and France's Bouygues could be interested in acquiring John Holland.
John Holland's transport services business, which has some $1.2 billion in revenues and maintains nearly one third of Australia's rail network, could be attractive to a private equity group that wants to build up a maintenance business, Mr Brownette added.

Snöbarn creates its first album in February 2013. Recording at Sacred Heart Music Studio with Alan Sparhawk and Eric Swanson. Read more
Snöbarn creates its first album in February 2013. Recording at Sacred Heart Music Studio with Alan Sparhawk and Eric Swanson.
About this project
Snöbarn is an electrified folk/alternative band from Duluth, MN. The name Snöbarn means "snow children" in Swedish; Ari and Gaelynn both have deep Scandinavian roots. Together Ari and Gaelynn have been playing shows around Northern Minnesota for a year and a half. Snöbarn started out as a duo, but have since added two percussionists and a bass player... and now it is a full, 5-piece band! Ariane sings and plays electric guitar and piano. Gaelynn plays fiddle and sings the harmonies. Bryan (Lefty) Johnson and Chad Erlemeier keep their rhythm and George Ellsworth fills out the sound on bass. Ari and Gaelynn write all original songs, inspired by their intricate and meaningful friendship in Northern Minnesota.
In the past year, Ari and Gaelynn have written 11 fresh, new songs and they really would like to put them on an album. Each song has a different feel; their eclectic writing styles make their music delightfully varied. They aim to write songs that are catchy but not campy, thought-provoking but not despairing: their sound is a product of an honest experience in Northern Minnesota. Snöbarn's music includes rich vocal harmonies, layered rhythms, and intricate instrumentation.
Ari and Gaelynn are planning to create their debut album at Sacred Heart Music Studio, a rare and beautiful church turned recording studio in Duluth, Minnesota. Alan Sparhawk (Low, Retribution Gospel Choir, The Murder of Crows) and Eric Swanson have agreed to work with Snöbarn on recording, mixing, and mastering the album. Duluth-based photographer and graphic designer, Shawn Stigsell, created the promotional pieces for this Kickstarter campaign. In addition, SkatRadioh will be collaborating with Snöbarn to design and lay out the artwork. The album packaging will be hand screen printed to give it a unique, tactile quality. Now Ari and Gaelynn are looking for the funds to make all this happen!
Snöbarn is asking for $3,200 because that should cover the basic costs of recording, mixing, mastering, cover art, and printing the album. HOWEVER, there will inevitably be outlying costs, such as: extra studio time, additional printing costs, music videographers, merchandise, travel expenses, and future promotional opportunities. So any funds raised over $3,200 will be put to good use! Please continue to donate to Snöbarn's Kickstarter project, even if they reach their goal! Your support will impact the band on many levels, and they appreciate it more than you may realize. Creating this album isn't just about making a CD for Ari and Gaelynn, it's a huge opportunity for artistic growth and it will develop their friendship in ways they can't even imagine right now.
Thank you so much to those of you who have already donated! Because of you, our project has guaranteed funding! That is an awesome feeling!
But we are asking people to continue supporting our project, because ultimately we would like to raise a GRAND TOTAL OF $5,000 by February 4th! We are hoping to raise that extra $1,800 because we would really love to make the album and CD jackets as lovely as possible, and we want to pay a fair price to the artists involved (Shawn Stigsell and SkatRadioh are collaborating and we're pretty pumped to see what they come up with together).
We also found out that pressing our limited-release vinyl is going to cost at bit more than planned, but as it is a prize for all funders over $50, we gotta make sure we get those out!
And last, but not least, we are realizing there will be some unforeseen, unglamorous costs with this Kickstarter project, such as paying for the packaging and postage to mail all our lovely backers their CDs, vinyls, and buttons! We're pretty sure that we'll find out about still more unexpected expenses, but we are determined to keep the total cost of this album under $5,000! If we end up having to pay some of the remaining costs out of pocket, so be it... But if we get a chance to record the entire album DEBT-FREE that would be a dream come true!!!
Please keep spreading the word about our project, and thank you so much for being a part of Snöbarn's debut album!
Ariane & Gaelynn (Snöbarn)
P.S. Check out a live radio performance of our newest song, "There's God to Be More"! We played it on KUWS on January 17th, 2013, and are very excited to perfect it (and many other songs) in the recording studio this February!
Risks and challenges
Every recording project has its difficulties, but we are confident that we are ready to face them together. We have numerous supportive local artists who are backing us with their expertise and knowledge. Plus, we are two of the most tenacious, resilient women out there. We are more than ready to professionally handle set-backs and keep our positive eyes on the future! Bring it on.
Learn about accountability on KickstarterFAQ
Upcoming Shows: Saturday, Jan 26th: Beaners Central @ 8pm (with Portrait of a Drowned Man and Kyle Ollah) $5 cover goes to the bands Thursday, Jan 31st: Lake Ave Cafe @ 9pm (with Mary Bue and Loup Garou) FREE! * Limited Edition band T-shirts will be sold at our shows, created by Haataja Designs, so come and support our Kickstarter and get a shirt!
YES!!! We definitely plan to make the album available for sale as a digital download! We're thinking it'll be up on iTunes, but there's a chance we'll go with Bandcamp. We'll probably throw a couple songs up on Soundcloud for streaming as well. But either way, we'll keep you posted, on Kickstarter and on our Facebook page: www.facebook.com/snobarn!

There has been an inordinate delay in acquiring government properties between Chandrayangutta and 'Pilli Dargah'
Road-widening works within the old city are not without hitches. And many a time, it is either the politicians or the people who are blamed for any delay. The delay in completing road-widening works is on part of the government.
The existing narrow stretch of road between Chandrayangutta and 'Pilli Dargah' on the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport stretch is being widened to about 80-feet. Though most of the private properties were demolished and the road was widened, the delay in handing over the government properties had slowed down the work.
A total of 130 properties were identified for demolition as part of the road-widening work. The authorities could demolish 103 properties in the last one year.
The CRPF campus on the stretch is one of the biggest properties to be acquired for the works.
Likewise, the BSNL office has also proved to be another hiccup in the exercise. There is a delay on the part of the telecom company to hand over the property for road widening works, it is said.

It is a big donation to help children with special needs. The Rochester Auto Dealers Association presented $70,000 to the Rochester Rotary Club for its Sunshine Camp.
The camp, which is in Rush, provides activities for children who suffer with development disabilities.
Robert Attardo, Rochester Rotary President, said, "Kids can participate in all kinds of activities, everything is full accessible, so we have five lodges for overnight accommodations."
More than 2,500 children take part at the camp every year.

The protostar "bits" are all destined to become individual stars of assorted mass. Less massive lumps become low mass stars while massive lumps become high mass stars. As a general rule there are lots of low mass stars for every high mass star.
Many protostar contractions have been observed in isolated gas clouds; that is, where one cloud contracted to form one star.
Each protostar collapses very quickly; its gas falls inward in free fall. A protostar can collapse from a size equal to the outer diameter of the solar system to about 30 times the Sun's size (the size of Mercury's orbit) in about six months.
In some protostars, contraction remains the only source of energy; these are brown dwarfs, and they die away slowly, over hundreds of billions of years.
This is known as a protostar. At this stage the temperature is still too low for nuclear fusion to happen. If the mass is too low, the failed star ends up as a brown dwarf. Some astronomers consider Jupiter to be a failed star.
The light from a protostar is absorbed by the dust surrounding it, causing the dust to warm up and radiate in the infrared.

The tremendous heat given off by the nuclear fusion process causes the gas to glow creating a protostar. This is the first step in the evolution of a star. The glowing protostar continues to accumulate mass.
After the central protostar collapses to a sphere, gas continues to fall onto it from the nebula, via the accretion disk.
No, as you'll learn, Red Giants are stars near the end of their lives, while these protostars haven't even ripened (haven't "turned on" yet).
This cycle continues and just like a haystack in summer the inside of the protostar starts to get very hot. If enough material is is hoovered up from the surrounding gas and dust, the protostar will hit a critical point in its life.

This theory is a version of Jeans's theory in which the Sun interacts with a nearby protostar dragging a filament of material from the protostar.
The center compresses enough to become a protostar and the rest of the gas orbits/flows around it. Most of that gas flows inward and adds to the mass of the forming star, but the gas is rotating.
When a star "turns on" its hydrogen-burning phase, we say that it has reached the main sequence, and is a true star, not a protostar, brown dwarf, or planet.
Diffuse material orbiting around a central body such as a protostar, a young star, a neutron star or a black hole.
When a star is growing, as the protostar gains mass, the radiation pressure increases and pushes matter out, making it harder and harder to accumulate more mass. Anything that tries to fall onto the protostar gets blown off again.
Within 50 million years, the pressure and density of hydrogen in the centre of the protostar became great enough for it to begin thermonuclear fusion.
At a distance of 7000 light years this nebula contains the largest protostar yet to be discovered. This protostar is 300 times the size of our own solar system. A protostar is a gas cloud that "shrinks" its way to becoming a star.

Malaysian police allow protesters to march, shout slogans
Malaysian police have allowed several thousand protesters to march from several places in the capital city into the Dataran Merdeka square on the eve of the New Year, taking a softer stance from its earlier warnings that the demonstrators had wanted to overthrow the government.
At around 11pm tonight, several dozen policemen had massed around the square where a New Year's Eve concert is ongoing, and police helicopter buzzed overhead.
But the police have largely allowed the protesters to join the thousands of New Year revellers who sat at the large grass field that forms the centre of the square to listen to a concert. Others sat on the roads that have been closed around the area and on roadside kerbs.
There were no sign of police in riot gear or the dreaded water cannon trucks, a scene removed from previous street demonstrations in Malaysia.

The 2014 UCI World Cup has kicked off 3 weeks ago in South Africa. The team was really excited to start this new season. Myriam, Rémi, Cam, Thibaut and Gaëtan were motivated to have a good launch into this new season.
It's always good to be back in South Africa, great atmosphere, wonderful landscapes, even if the track is not the most adored one : Everyone knew it would be one of the most physically demanding track of the season and this year track builders built some interesting new features to make it more technically. Adding this, dry and dusty conditions, it resulted a pretty tricky combo.
Myriam offered us the best surprise, usually not at her best on this track, she managed to get a really good 4th place.
Cam was in the pace too with a promising 12th place, he had a clean run but admit with more confidence he could have been faster.
Rémi had a really good top part split, which ranked him 6th, but he lost a lot in the pedaling section, he ended up 20th.
Thibaut was further in the ranking with the 45th spot, disappointed with his run which missed a lot of rhythm.
Gaëtan had a good come back in the top 80 with a 67th place, 1 month and half only after his collarbone surgery.
Check the link for watch the video report :
After a few more days training, riding, safari-ing, beach-ing in South Africa we headed to Australia, for the most of the team, the first time !
We spent a few days in Cairns before the race start to get acclimated : some good trainings along the beach, good DH runs in the mountains with Cairns MTB tours, and a great day cruising on a reef island, snorkeling with amazing fishes.
After that, it was time to get back into business, we walked the track in this incredible tropical forest (saw many terrifying beasts, some dangerous trees along the track !), it was looking awesome : dry (at this the moment), some fast and gnarly sections, good jumps, and tricky technical parts, except a useless 25 seconds flat pedaling highway section to reach the finish line.
Girls and juniors only had the chance to do a few run on the dry course, but at the beginning of the first men practice session, it started to rain and we quickly understood why it was called "rain forest" ! It rained heavily during 2 days, pits were progressively looking like Woodstock and the track like the 2 world wars combined…
The race was one of the hardest in everyone career, the mud became really sticky and incredibly slippery and the track was not specially made for muddy conditions.
Myriam showed us we could rely on her one more time, getting 3rd despite the worst feeling she never had : "During my run, I wanted to stop because I was sure I will ended up last !".
The boys wasn't as lucky, Cam qualified 12th and unfortunately crashed in the top rock garden and ended up 49th, his 8th time on the bottom split showed he had the speed though.
Rémi definitely wanted to get back on the top spots but he got a front flat tire in the first corners and then crashed due to this flat, a nightmare for him.
Thibaut had a bad crash at the end of the first day practice, he carried a bad pain on his ribs the next days and another crash in the rock garden kept him far in the ranking with a 58th place.
Gaëtan wasn't more lucky in qualifying, he crashed in the rock garden too and broke his rear brake, he tried to carry on despite this but wasn't able to make it in for the finals.
It was a tough few days racing in Cairns but still a good experience. Riders are back at home now and are looking forward to the next world cup in Fort William on June 7th and 8th where they hope and will do their best to take their revenge.
A thumb up goes to Myriam for her consistency over these 2 rounds and to the boys for their commitment !
A huge thanks to all our partners for making this possible and for the great support, you guys rock !
Another one goes to the Bentley Family for their wonderful welcome in their wonderful place in South Africa !
