Materials science is one of the central sciences and also affects many aspects of everyday life, as newly developed or further developed materials with specific properties result in new products or in significant improvements on existing products. For example, light weight, high mechanical stability and good weather resistance are current research goals in materials science, where the focus lies on the interdependence between the structure of materials and their macroscopic properties.
The Inorganic Crystal Structure Database (ICSD) is the world's biggest database of fully evaluated and published crystal structure data. Science and industry are offered high-quality records that will provide a basis for studies in materials science, e.g. for identifying unknown substances. ICSD contains about 169,800 crystal structures of inorganic substances published since 1913. About 1,300 journals are scanned each year for database production. In order to ensure completeness as far as possible, also retroactive updates are made at regular intervals. Metals were included in ICSD several years ago when the former distinction between inorganic compounds and metals was found to be inconvenient. The metal structures were recorded retroactively in cooperation with FIZ Karlsruhe's partner, NIST (National Institute for Science and Technology, Washington, DC, USA).
For more than 25 years FIZ Karlsruhe has been offering the crystal structure depot as a free service to the scientific community.

Florida Clergy Joins "Stand Your Ground" Protesters in Tallahassee
July 26th, 2013 | WMFE - Religious leaders from across Florida spent last night camped outside Governor Rick Scott's Tallahassee office, in support of student protesters who have been sleeping there for over a week. The student protest group Dream Defenders is calling for a special legislative session to repeal Florida's "Stand Your Ground" Law.
[Image: PICO logo]
Pastor Eddie Walker led the Orlando delegation from the faith-based PICO Network to last night's demonstration. Walker says he was moved by the students' level of commitment, even though Governor Scott has turned down their demand for a special session so far.
"Seeing our youth come together and organize was the most important part, and seeing their dedication to see justice done," says Walker.

Goddess: Celebrity Moms and Dads
Jessica Simpson is Pregnant Again, Source Confirms: So What About Her Weight Watchers Deal?Taryn Ryder at Goddess: Celebrity Moms and Dads1 yr ago
Pregnancy rumors have continued to swirl around Jessica Simpson in recent weeks and now omg! can confirm that the reports are true.
"[Jessica] definitely is pregnant again and it was completely unplanned," a source close to Jessica tells omg!. "She and Eric were surprised, but are really happy."
Us Weekly first brokethe news that Simpson is expecting her second child last month.
Guess who else was surprised? Weight Watchers. Jessica is a spokeswoman for the company, signing a deal earlier this year reportedlyworth $4 million dollars.
Simpson, 32, gave birth to daughter Maxwell Drew Johnson on May 1. In a brand new ad that will start airing next week, the "Fashion Star" judge boaststhat she lost 50 lbs. of her pregnancy weight through Weight Watchers' methods.
Ivanka Trump Takes Daughter Arabella on a Toy Store Shopping Trip for the Holidayssuzy at Goddess: Celebrity Moms and Dads1 yr ago
Let's be honest, Ivanka Trump could probably afford to call a toy store, order one of everything, and have it delivered to her swanky 10-room Manhattan home for her daughter, Arabella Rose. And seeing as the businesswoman's schedule doesn't allow her all that much free time – when she's not overseeing development and acquisitions for her father's real estate company, the Trump Organization, she's working on her eponymous fashion and lifestyle brand, and filming "All-Star Celebrity Apprentice" – that would almost make sense. But the 31-year-old mom is taking a more hands-on approach.

Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy Take Baby Louis to Disneylandraechal at Goddess: Celebrity Moms and Dads1 yr ago
Sandra Bullock and her adorable 2-year-old son, Louis, bundled up for a fun day at Disneyland on Thursday — and they were joined by Bullock's new BFF Melissa McCarthy! The 42-year-old "Mike and Molly" actress, who became close friends with Bullock, 48, while filming the upcoming comedy "The Heat," also brought along her husband, actor Ben Falcone, for their visit to the theme park in Anaheim, California.
[Related: Sandra Bullock and Camila Alves Bond Over Babies]
McCarthy and Falcone's daughters, Vivian, 5, and Georgette, 2, weren't spotted on the outing to "the Happiest Place on Earth," but we already know that they get along with little Louis. The three had a playdate at McCarthy's L.A. home earlier this month. Perhaps the girls had a prior commitment — you know, plans with other cool Hollywood kids, like the Affleck girls or even those Beckham boys?

Drew Barrymore Introduces Her Daughter, Olivesuzy at Omg Goddess1 yr ago
Meet Drew Barrymore's baby!
In the new issue of People, the 37-year-old shares the exclusive first photos of her daughter, Olive, and talks about transitioning into her new role as a mom.
"It's like the biggest crush I've ever had in my life," Barrymore, who is married to art consultant Will Kopelman, says of her little one, who was born September 26.
[Related: Drew Barrymore Explains the Meaning Behind Her Daughter Olive's Name]
After a slight adjustment period immediately after giving birth — "I couldn't eat or sleep for two weeks, I was just so nervous" — Barrymore is fully ensconced in motherhood, a job which includes on demand performances of the song "Good Morning" from "Singin' in the Rain" to keep her daughter cheery, and jumping up and down to entertain her.
Barrymore also shares that the red cowboy hat that she wore as a child star in "E.T." is a decoration in Olive's nursery.
Camille Grammer: Ex Kelsey Won't Let Our Kids Say My Name at His Housekperri at Goddess: Celebrity Moms and Dads1 yr ago
The "c-word" is not allowed to be spoken in the Grammer household … and no, that word isn't "car seat." During an appearance on "Anderson" on Tuesday, Camille Grammer revealed that her ex-husband, Kelsey Grammer, has forbidden their two children (Mason, 11, and Jude, 8) from saying their mother's first name while they are visiting with him and his new wife, Kayte.
"So these poor kids, my daughter and my son, can't say my name in their father's house," said the "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star, adding that it made her "sad" when she found out. "I think they can say 'mom' or 'the other household,' but they can't say my name."
It's unclear why Kelsey, 58, who cheated on Camille, 44, with Kayte, is so incensed by his ex. During an August interview with Oprah Winfrey, he also refused to say Camille's name, only referring to her as "that person."
Reese Witherspoon on Losing Baby Weight: 'I'm Slowly Crawling Back'kperri at Omg Goddess1 yr ago
Since giving birth to son Tennessee James on September 27, Reese Witherspoon has been looking incredible, but she says her post-pregnancy weight loss has been more of a footrace. Showing off her slim figure in a tight black dress at the March of Dimes Babies event over the weekend, the actress admitted that despite appearances, it's not exactly easy getting that pre-baby bod back. "I don't know if I'm bouncing back, I'm slowly crawling back," she told "Extra" in an interview that is set to air on Monday night. "You know, all of your joints feel wobbly and your head is sort of confused."
Tom Brady Hits the Park With His Boys While Gisele Bundchen Bonds With Baby Viviansuzy at Omg Goddess1 yr ago
Giving his wife, Gisele Bündchen, time to bond with their new daughter, Tom Brady took his sons (and the family dog) to a Boston park over the weekend for what turned out to be a swinging good time.
Bundled up for the New England chill, the NFL quarterback took Benjamin, 3, and John, 5, to a playground near their home on Sunday. The boys, who were appropriately decked out in Patriots gear, seemed thrilled to be outside in the fresh air, and happily climbed into a tire swing so that their famous father could push them around. Big brother John, whose mother is Brady's ex Bridget Moynahan, was the more daring of the brothers, standing up on the swing as dad kept a watchful eye on him.

Kim Basinger and Alec Baldwin's 17-Year-Old Daughter Ireland Steps Out With Her Famous Momraechal at Goddess: Celebrity Moms and Dads1 yr ago
Though movie stars often have a reputations for sacrificing close relationships with their kids for their careers, that doesn't look to be the case when it comes to Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger's 17-year-old daughter, Ireland. The willowy, blond teen proved just how strong of a bond she has with her Oscar-winning mom as they (along with Ireland's boyfriend Slater Trout) stepped out together for a low-key outing to Subway and Starbucks in Hawaii on Saturday, Basinger's 59th birthday.

Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady's Baby Name Selection: All the Details!suzy at Omg Goddess1 yr ago
Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady welcomed their "little angel" — daughter Vivian Lake Brady — on Wednesday, and already her name is generating some buzz. omg! readers have been weighing in on the moniker and so far the celebrity couple is getting a thumbs up. So what's in a name? Let's take a look…
Vivian is of Latin origin and means "lively" and "alive," which hints that she was an active baby when Bundchen, 32, was pregnant, and it also has a sound that is popular among new parents these days. "V is the hot letter for girls right now," baby name expert and author Laura Wattenberg from BabyNameWizard.com tells omg!. "It had been 'l,' but it's shifted if you look at Ava, Evelyn, Violet, and of course Vivienne, which was chosen by Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. Also, one of the hottest rising names last year was Aviana, which Amy Adams concocted for her daughter based on where the actress was born — in Aviano, Italy."
Megan Fox's Ultimatum to Brian Austin Green: Nanny or Divorcekperri at Omg Goddess1 yr ago
Brian Austin Green certainly knows the meaning of "happy wife, happy life." After he and Megan Fox welcomed their son, Noah Shannon, on September 27, the Hollywood couple really wanted to care for their newborn without the help of a nanny, but a lack of sleep has convinced them otherwise.
"Having an infant is difficult," Fox, 26, tells the U.K.'s . "It's a lot of work and I didn't hire any help because I overestimated my own abilities. I had no idea how difficult babies could be, so Brian and I were exhausted. You never sleep and you're awake all night and your entire life is devoted to this little thing that needs you constantly." The "This is 40" actress adds that although becoming a mother is a dream she has had since she was a young girl, sleep deprivation is taking its toll. "Two weeks ago I said to Brian, 'We have to get a night nurse or we're going to get a divorce because somebody's got to sleep in this house or we're going to kill each other.'"

I don't think it would work like that, an illusion with a personality? That would be dittomancy not foolamancy. At first I thought Jack had sent a double with Parson, so technically it wouldn't violate the MK's terms and could explain the lack of juice (the dittomancer would probably need to transfer his own juice), but then it should have disappeared when it died.

Dorothy was a placeholder name, but the character is more complex than just an homage to the Oz character. So I am retconjuring Dorothy's name to Judy (Gale). It's changed in the archives but not yet in the wiki. Could someone jump in there and fix that, including noting the retconjuration and a redirect from "Dorothy"?
There will likely be a number of retconjurations before taking Book 0 to print, some of them fairly significant. I did warn that this thing's a first draft when I started it. Sometimes you have to go back and change the weave a little. This change was worth doing right now.

Don't worry about deactivating Twitter. I actually agree with you that's why I simply don't post on it as much as I did before.

I did the same thing with Facebook, so I understand. I was getting too involved and I am not one to do things in moderation so I deleted it. I do have a "page" for my blog but that's about it. Social media can really be overwhelming. I have to remind myself to not check my Twitter feed first thing in the morning!

i'm enjoying your instagram project Capture December.....
I have resisted signing on to Twitter; I think it's more than enough for me to have facebook, a blog and instagram! Twitter has been revolutionary in the way we interact with people/celebs around the world, but there's Too Much Information with it....
as for instagram....well with facebook being the owner, i'm not surprised. might have to reconsider my account with instagram...

Happy holidays to you, love! I completely understand about the Twitter thing. With almost any social media network after a while, you start feeling the need to have people's approval on certain things. It gets draining because one should know the treasure behind keeping things to ourselves. As I always say, I love your style... you're very inspiring. Stay blessed, sweets. :)

Twitter can definitely be more of a vice than a virtue at times so I completely understand your decision!
Your instagram pictures look like they were taken with a DSLR! They're great!
I most definitely AM missing your outfit post, but I understand the temperature is ridiculous! I'm in NY and I usually have to beg my friends (lightly, since they looove me) to take my pictures on cold days.

P.S. Teach my how to be as gorgeous as you are!!!

Gorgeous photos Shirley! I'm totally jealous of people whose instagram feeds look absolutely perfect, like yours!
And, I understand exactly what you mean about deactivating your twitter. I kept mine deactivated for about half the year, it was such a good break. When I finally reactivated it, it felt awkward and forced to tweet what was on my mind.
Have a great day, Dara <3

i often think the same thing. i usually don't use twitter for the fact that i think and rethink things too much and then i just think its so silly. good for you for doing that. we don't need to share everything, and everyone doesn't need to have full access to everything.
love ya girl!

Strong B.O. boosts IMAX profits: Net profit surges to $11.1 million
By Jill Goldsmith on July 26, 2012
A strong box office buoyed Imax profits as more filmmakers film bigger chunks of their movies for the massive screens, the longest bit so far being 72 minutes of Warner Bros. "The Dark Knight Rises," and two big releases shoot in Imax simultaneously for the first time. Imax needs to ramp up camera production to meet increased demand, said CEO Richard Gelfond on a conference call Thursday. "Prometheus" and "The Amazing Spider-Man" used Imax sequences. 2013 highlights include J.J. Abrams' "Star Trek" sequel and "Catching... Read More
'Dark Knight Rises' Breaking Blighty records
By Robert Mitchell on July 18, 2012
LONDON -- Two days out from release Warner Bros' ''The Dark Knight Rises'' is already setting records in the U.K. The BFI London IMAX cinema announced Wednesday that the blockbuster has already sold 62,300 tickets at the venue, grossing more than 1 million ($1.57 million) since going on sale five weeks ago. A total of 43 screenings are now sold out and extra shows are being added. Advance sales for the new Batman film far surpassed the venue's previous record holder, ''Avatar,'' which sold 47,000 tickets ahead of its December 2009 release. ''The Dark Knight Rises'' also set records for biggest first day sales (24,754) and first week sales (38,658). Please... Read More

Batman is lured back into action after a lengthy hiatus — to prevent a terrorist from nuking a Gotham City closely resembling the Big Apple — in the imposingly dark and hugely entertaining "The Dark Knight Rises.'' Superhero movies are perhaps the most predicable genre out there right now (sorry, Marvel fans), but take it from someone who can usually spot plot twists half an hour away: Christopher Nolan's dramatically and emotionally satisfying wrap-up to the Dark Knight trilogy adroitly avoids clichés and gleefully subverts your expectations at every turn. Eight years after the end of 2008's "The Dark... Read More
The Dark Knight Rises' to Beat BFI IMAX Record
By Stuart Kemp on July 18, 2012
LONDON: Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises has booked an eye-popping £1 million ($1.5 million) in advance booking at BFI Imax, breaking all previous sales records for the venue.
The venue, operated from Wednesday July 17 by Europe's largest exhibitor Odeon, for the British Film Institute, said there have been over 60,000 tickets bought and 43 shows sold out so far for the Warner Bros. release this week.
The venue said 62,300 tickets have flown off the shelves for the film, grossing £1 million ($1.5 million) two days ahead of the film's opening July 20, since tickets went on sale five weeks ago. Please click here to
How the Dark Knight Rose in IMAX
By Stephen Kelly on July 17, 2012
He's anti-3D, still shoots on film and believes in using as little CGI as possible -- Christopher Nolan is Hollywood's traditionalist. But for his latest, The Dark Knight Rises, Nolan needed an epic camera to match the scale of his vision for his third Batman film.
"The Imax cameras use 65-millimetre 15-perforation film advanced horizontally through the camera at 24 frames per second," explains David Keighley, Imax's chief quality officer. "The frames are nine times bigger than a traditional 35mm movie frame. For Chris [Nolan] it's the closest you can get to zooming down the road in the Batmobile." Please click here to

I would like a (PRODUCT) RED iPod touch 5th generation please. I want the (PRODUCT) RED because it helps fund things in Africa like AIDS. I would also like one because I have never owned an iPod touch. I also need it because my school has switched to all Apple products and having an iPod touch for researching information could be useful at my school. Also, I could download the iMore app and read many articles from iMore. My school also has Google Drive so I could type well with the new large display. I am 11 years old and would like this iPod very bad because my family is poor.
If I am chosen to get the new iPod nano, I would like the (PRODUCT) RED version also so I would be donating to Africa to help out AIDS also. An iPod nano would be great so I could listen to music a lot when I am on field trips at school with long drives.
Thanks so much iMore staff. I hope I win one of the iPods.

Sonoma County's pension gap grows $50 million
Published: Thursday, January 31, 2013 at 4:09 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 31, 2013 at 4:09 p.m.
For the second time in two years, officials overseeing the pension system for Sonoma County government have lowered the fund's projected rate of return on investments, a move that will increase taxpayer costs in the short term but is intended to reduce long-term market-driven shortfalls.
The quarter-percent change, to a new rate of 7.5 percent, will trigger a roughly $50 million spike in the county's pension underfunding, now set at $353 million.
It also will trigger a $4.6 million increase in annual contributions by taxpayers to the system. That represents a 4.9 percent increase on the county's current annual pension costs of $94 million, including payments on pension bond debt. The increase will be phased in over three years beginning in mid-2014.
The shift comes at a time of increasing focus on the rising cost of public pensions, which critics say sucks money from county services.
It also comes amid continued debate over pay and benefits for county employees. State-mandated pension changes this year and a slate of county proposals subject to negotiation are geared to curb rising pension costs, up 400 percent for taxpayers since 2000.
Not all of the annual increase in contributions will be borne by taxpayers. County employees and workers in several affiliated agencies will see an increase totaling $680,000, or 1.9 percent, in their annual contributions.
The board overseeing the county retirement system made the change at a Jan. 17 meeting. Supervisor David Rabbitt, who serves on the pension board, announced the shift at a Board of Supervisors meeting this week.
In an interview, Rabbitt called the decision "a move in the right direction," while suggesting a sharper reduction would have been in order.
Stock market losses have driven much of the rise in annual pension costs for taxpayers, prompting fiscal watchdogs to call for investment changes that would reduce risks for taxpayers, including lower projected earnings rates in the range of 4 to 6 percent.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the billionaire founder of a financial data services firm, last year called retirement fund earnings assumptions of 7 to 8 percent "indefensible."
But public-sector pension officials have largely resisted those calls, saying their long-term returns have far surpassed those rates and that only smaller adjustments are needed.
"Over 30 years, we've earned over 9 percent," said Gary Bei, administrator of the $2 billion Sonoma County Employees' Retirement Association. The fund's 20-year return is 7.5 percent, in line with the new assumption. Setting a significantly lower assumed rate would be "misleading," Bei said.
The county pension board lowered its previous rate of 8 percent to 7.75 percent in early 2011.
The latest move mirrors changes by many government retirement systems. CalPERS, the giant state employee system that also includes many cities, and CalSTRS, the fund for teachers, both went to 7.5 percent last year.
Because the lower rates shrink assumed annual income from investments — the largest source of pension funding — and require taxpayers to largely make up the difference, they can be a bitter pill to swallow for cash-strapped governments.
Glittering single-year investment earnings can also make such changes seem unnecessary. In 2012, for example, Sonoma County's pension fund earned 14.8 percent, a return that will help make up for past losses.
But pension critics point out other years, such as 2011, when the county fund made 1 percent, or an effective loss of more than $120 million based on fund assets at the time of about $1.8 billion.
With Sonoma County's current pension bond debt at more than $500 million, county officials have said the risks posed by those investment losses no longer can be sustained.
"That huge trough, we can't afford to fill," said Rabbitt, speaking as a supervisor.
At the pension board meeting, he argued for a larger rate drop, to 7.25 percent, while at least one other pension board member, Tom Ford, a retired county treasurer-tax collector, pushed for no change at all.
In the end, the decision on the quarter-percent change to 7.5 percent was unanimous. Bei said it puts the county system in line with most comparable public-sector retirement funds.
The county board typically addresses such decisions on a three-year cycle. But Rabbitt suggested a quicker reassessment and possibly another reduction could be justified.
"Looking forward, based on what we know, we have to bring it down," he said. "I don't think we really have a choice."

Complaints about the current system of accrediting community colleges, combined with the quickly changing scope of community college education and how it's delivered, may soon necessitate changes in the way that community college programs are accredited.
In recent years, interest in competency-based education has risen drastically. It is a form of learning in which students engage in self-paced instruction and assessment of aptitudes rather than attending traditional courses and receiving traditional grades. Seen as the future of community college education by some, and as a cheapened version of a real education by others, competency-based education appears to be here to stay.
High school students across the nation are enrolling in college credit classes and finding that graduating from college before even graduating from high school is a very real possibility.

Wool-Blend Coat: A warm wool-blend is only one of the reasons that you'll love this shapely coat. It comes in all of the season's best colors, has a flattering silhouette and a longer length for those chilly days and nights. This is the coat to wear anywhere and everywhere—and that's an outerwear must-have!
Read what customers are saying about this product:
Rating: 5.00 out of 1 votes cast
I love this coat in the houndstooth. It is lightweight, which is all that is usually needed in the South. It looks high end, can't wait to layer it with the many colors that it can compliment. I plan to order more colors. I would love to see it in more traditional colors like gray, navy and brown and more contemporary colors like mustard and green.

It's not a matter of me being sensitive, it's about you generally sucking-but-still-getting-to-post-here, and then posting something that not only sucks even by the horrible standard you generally set, but actually violates a forum rule.
don't fighter bash, don't violate any other rules, and you're free to continue to lower the mean IQ around here with every character you type.
I have a question RH. Is not hypocritical to warn/ban/discipline a member for fighter bashing and then turn around member bash?
So we aren't allowed to fighter bash when a fighter is being an idiot and making dumb statements (or in this case, a ridiculous request) but it is okay for you to member bash for fighter bashing, and/or being an idiot and making dumb statements(you know, the same reason why members bash fighters). LOL, wow.
You are no better than the rest of us RH, so why don't you climb down off that horse you power tripping, hypocritical asshole that takes the title "forum moderator" way to serious.
Go right ahead and ban me for flaming you, I don't care. Ban this username and I will make another, ban my IP address and I will TOR browser to change my IP. You don't have any real power RH, you can't stop me, or anyone, from coming here.
What we've got here is,failure to communicate.Some men you just can't reach.
I'd probably grow a bigger,smellier beard to level the playing field.
If and when Cormier wins this fight, he should shave Roy's beard in the middle of the ring Brutus 'The Barber' Beefcake style.
wouldnt having a beard make it more difficult to get out of chokes? i think having a bear is a disadvantage cormier should stfu for once.
I really hope Roy wins, just incase he comes up with comedic gold in the post fight interview about this. Even if having a beard is an advantage, how big of an advantage can it really be? Also, if you don't want another man's hair rubbing up on you, you might want to either change your fighting tactics or pursue another career that doesn't involve getting touched by other men.
The beard abides
Cormier took it the authorities, petitioning the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, which will be regulating UFC 166, to do something about the beard. However, as reported on "UFC Tonight" the Texas commission responded that they don't regulate facial hygiene.
So Saturday night, Roy Nelson is free to sport the beard proudly, and Daniel Cormier is free to punch it.
For his part, when asked how the planned to win, Nelson's stated concern was Cormier hugging.
"There's a couple different ways," said Nelson. "I think the biggest thing is don't let him hug me. Don't let him push me up against the cage and just do a boring, ugly fight and piss the fans off. I think that's the biggest thing you don't want to do is piss the fans off because they are the ones that pay the bills."
UFC 166's Daniel Cormier on Beardgate: There's nothing we can do
"The thing about the beard is it doesn't seem to be well-kept, so I'm going to request that there's a rubber band in it and that it comes straight down," Cormier said this past month. "Also, I'm going to ask that they put his hair in two plaits off to the side. Part it down the middle, plait it on the sides. I don't want it all in my face."
Unfortunately, he said he had no recourse for such a request with Texas' governing body.
"There is no law or rule against his beard, so he can wear it as long as he wants it," Cormier said. " ... He can go out there looking like a grizzly bear if he wants."
Cormier figured it was a long shot, anyway, and he even said he wasn't necessarily determined to get the commission to act on his request. Instead, he suggested he simply wanted to tweak his opponent.
"I was going to make him (trim or braid it) if they let me, but they didn't," he said. "Initially it was a joke. I kind of thought to myself, a lot of fans really like Roy. Roy's a good guy to like. He's cool. He has the beard. He's a little heavier. People like Roy. So they got offended by it."
And that got Cormier thinking. He admits that Nelson's unkempt look is probably bad for a sport that's still trying to earn respect, and he does worry that Nelson's mane could become a distraction, especially if they hit the mat in Saturday's bout. However, Cormier then realized "Beardgate" was a perfect opportunity to unleash some psychological warfare, especially based on the reaction of Nelson's fans.
"If it offends them so much, what is it going to do with the guy with the actual beard?" Cormier said. "So then I started trying to go after his beard. But it's truly not that big of a deal. I don't really care all that much, but why not mess with him if I can?"
Just because its big doesn't mean it's nasty... I mean... One can wash a beard... I mean, it might nasty... But it's not inherently nasty just because it exists. He might have all sorts of beard shampoos and brushes and shit. Where's that interview? I want to know more about his beard, and his beards hygiene.
Man, used to like Cormier, but I have never heard such a yappy fighter in my life. Talking shit about Jones, complaining about Nelson's beard.
Think there's bugs in that thing? Like, I look at it, and I just picture all sorts of deer ticks and fleas and shit. Daniel Cormier is gonna get fuckin Lyme Disease.
