Chevron (CVX), one of the world's largest energy companies, has awarded the Gorgon in Australia to GE (GE). The company announced the news yesterday. The $600 million, 22-year agreement with Chevron includes scheduled maintenance, diagnostic monitoring, engineering analytics, production guarantees, inventory management and the supply of spare components.
The contract service agreement allows for Australian companies to maintain influence in the region. The new maintenance center in Jandakot Perth, will be delivering 4,000 training days in 2013 for GE staff and employees. The Gorgon project happens to be one of the world's largest natural gas projects. A key playing field for GE and company, and a part of an expansion in broad revenue sources. Better Battery GE announced last Thursday its plans to expand its battery business to grow around $1 billion of annual revenue by 2020. This prediction also falls in line with stepped-up goals of reaching $500 million in annual revenue within the next two to three years — significant changes in a short period of time. The industry size of the battery market is around $50 billion annually with $5 billion located in the U.S. GE seeks a sizable portion of this industry. Benefits from the industry include customers that typically order in large bulk quantities with plans for ongoing production. Because of the nature of large bulk orders early costs are often offset completely and can even yield profit early. The company has already received its first order from a Southern African energy company, Megatron Federal, which will be requiring backup energy resources for a telecom company. The company will be investing $170 million in a new factory in addition to the company's original expansion expectations of $100 million. The plant will be located in New York and will employ 450 people. The plant received $20 million in grants from the state and local authorities. GE also holds a stake in A123 (AONE) lithium ion batteries used in hybrid cars. Cutting the Pie in Three GE announced on Friday that it would be breaking its energy division into three units. The move, which would allow the company to save $300 million, was prompted to create a direct connection with executives and CEO Jeffery Immelt. Under the current organization, energy executives report through one group that has one direct executive. The new system will allow three individuals to report directly to the CEO, thus sourcing candidates for the company's highest position. The company is not expected to replace its 11-year CEO anytime soon, but at the age of 56, plans for a successor come early on. The CEO has overseen many expansions including the energy acquisitions that built the $15 billion oil and gas business over the previous decade. Along with power turbine sales, media businesses, chemicals and insurance, the company holds large diversity in revenue streams. The three stand-alone businesses will be power and water — the largest with $28 billion in revenue — oil and gas, and energy management — the smallest with $7 billion in revenue. The company has maintained that the move is not intended to seek a successor but is part of a $2 billion cost-cutting effort within the company. Second quarter profit for the conglomerate slipped 18 percent to $3.11 billion, compared with the previous year's $3.76 billion. The earnings actually exceeded Wall Street's expectations, with revenue up 2.5 percent. Jeffery Immelt concluded on a conference call the company should see double-digit profit growth. Profit was at 38 cents per share. Textron (TXT) and Honeywell (HON) energy companies also found ways to show positive signs in a tough economy. The company also dismantled the technology division. On Friday the company's stock was up .07 points, closing at $19.87. Analysis In a rough economy and with sales down in Europe it would have been easy for the energy conglomerate to blame Europe for lower earnings, but that's not what happened. The company exceeded analyst expectations and showed growth. The company has also shown strongly consistent cost-cutting measures that allow for operating profits to go higher. Take for example GE Capital which merged consumer and business divisions as the economy soured – or the company's expected $2 billion in cuts the CEO plans to undergo, or the reduction in pensions costs. With a continued push in the energy market and investments of around $11 billion, the company is on track to continue its ascent. Buy. Stocks Discussed: CVX, GE, HON,

RLJ Lodging Trust Announces Completion Of $85.0 Million Refinancing
RLJ Lodging Trust (the "Company") (NYSE: RLJ) today announced that it has completed its $85.0 million refinancing with PNC Bank, National Association.
"Our deal was well received and we were pleased by the strong interest from the lending community," commented Leslie D. Hale, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, and Senior Vice President. "Our balance sheet remains solid. We are well positioned to pursue our growth objectives through the liquidity and flexibility currently available under our capital structure."
The base term is four years with a one-year extension option. The loan is interest only during the base term and bears a floating rate of LIBOR plus 235 basis points. The Company expects that the new financing terms will have a minimal impact on interest expense.
The Company has no further maturing debt obligations in 2012. The Company's next maturing debt obligation, assuming all extensions are exercised, will be in 2015.
About Us RLJ Lodging Trust is a self-advised, publicly traded real estate investment trust focused on acquiring premium-branded, focused-service and compact full-service hotels. The Company's portfolio consists of 141 hotels in 20 states and the District of Columbia, with more than 20,600 rooms.

Martin O'Neill has ruled James McClean out of Republic of Ireland's opening European Qualifier, but feels his side will be well prepared after beating Oman.
Wigan midfielder McClean has not regained full match-fitness after recovering from an ankle injury and manager O'Neill has reluctantly accepted that he will not be able to play in Georgia on Sunday.
O'Neill had hoped to play McClean in Wednesday night's 2-0 friendly victory over Oman at the Aviva Stadium, but he did not even make the bench and has now been withdrawn from the squad.
The manager said: "James McClean, unfortunately, has not come through. It's not that he has picked up any fresh injury or anything like that. James is disappointed, in a sense. He thinks he is further on.
"My concern with James really is while the injury has healed up, he hasn't played that much contact football. We put him in yesterday, he didn't do too badly at all, but I thought everything was just maybe too much for him.
"Wigan weren't really that keen about him playing either, and I understand that from a club viewpoint.
"If he did maybe pull a hamstring or a calf muscle in an attempt to strive for full fitness, then he might miss the games next month. At least now he has got that chance to get to get ready.
"He is not in the squad for Sunday."
McClean's absence will be a blow with O'Neill having used him extensively in his previous games in charge, but the 62-year-old was at least able to take positives from a win over admittedly modest opposition.
After a tepid start, Kevin Doyle headed the Republic into a 20th-minute lead and Alex Pearce added a late second.
O'Neill said: "I thought beforehand that we would need the game, and I think it was proved.
"We had a chance to look at Darron Gibson and Robbie Brady, (who) I hadn't seen play for us, anyway - I obviously haven't seen much of Darron Gibson at all in the last couple of years, so I thought the game was needed.
"It's nice to win - there's plenty of improvement [needed], obviously, with Tbilisi on Sunday, but it was just nice to win the game and for things to work out."

The 5 Dumbest Things on Wall Street: The All-HP Edition
4. Meg's Marty McFly Moment -- Originally published on March 23, 2012
Honestly, we don't know if Hewlett-Packard's move this week to merge its PC and printer divisions is dumb. Clearly the company needs to slash costs as its revenue -- especially its hardware sales -- continues to shrink. And for all we know right now, this could be Meg Whitman's first real managerial masterstroke in her quest to turn this once-proud tech titan around.
For the record, the printing and PC units together made up about half of HP's $30 billion revenue in its fiscal first quarter. Revenue from the printing division was down 13% in 2011 to $25.8 billion from a high of $29.6 billion in fiscal 2008, while sales in the PC division have dropped 6.4% over the same period to $39.6 billion in 2011.
That said, while we can't assess how dumb Meg's reorganization plan is at this point in time, we guarantee you this Dumbest fans: It will be dumb at some point.
Maybe next month or maybe next year. Or we may even have to wait ten years to revisit Meg's maneuver. But mark our words folks, there will come a moment when an HP restructuring will be Dumbest-worthy, so we might as well get it over with now. How do we know this? Why are we so certain? Well, let's rev the Dumbest DeLorean up to 88 miles per hour and go back to the future, shall we? In September 2001, in what former HP CEO Carly Fiorina calls a "decisive move" to provide "significant cost structure improvements," the company purchases Compaq Computer for $25 billion and merges it with its printer division. HP sales double over the next five years, however, 80% of the company's business remains printer-related and the company's board never forgives Carly for the deal. Fast forward to February 2005: Carly gets canned, complete with a $42 million exit package. Enter new CEO Mark Hurd, who splits the printer and PC businesses into separate divisions in order to lessen the company's dependency on printer-related items. He also lessens the number of employees at the company, slashing headcount at its once-vaunted R&D operation. Fast forward to August 2010: Hurd gets canned, complete with a $34 million exit package. Enter new CEO Leo Apotheker, who tries to get rid of the entire PC business through a sale or spin-off. Everybody thinks Leo is just plain loony. Fast forward a mere 11 months to September 2011: Apotheker gets canned before anybody even learns to pronounce his last name, complete with a $25 million exit package. Enter former eBay chief Meg Whitman as CEO and fast forward to this past Wednesday. "This combination will bring together two businesses where HP has established global leadership," said Whitman in a statement about the new road HP intends to take. Or should we say old road since this is simply a return to the Carly days? Then again, to paraphrase Back to the Future's Doc Brown, where they're going, they don't need roads. Think about it. Who needs roads when you repeatedly throw your entire business up in the air and your CEO out the door?Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

At the same time, as a school dedicated to serving the public interest, we understand that in the public mind and often in academia, the independence of research findings, policy analysis, public positions, and even teaching can be questioned when it is funded by or when the author receives significant outside support from a company, industry, national government or other organization which may have a financial, ideological, or political stake in that academic work. To address this concern, Harvard University and Harvard Kennedy School have adopted a set of disclosure and conflict of interest policies. The policies aim to balance the value of involvement with the real world actors we seek to understand, the legitimate desire of the public for transparency, and the autonomy and privacy interests of individual faculty members. A simple summary of our goal is "transparent engagement." This website is one of many tools available to our faculty for the purpose of public disclosure. Outside Professional Activities For Juliette Kayyem I have a variety of commitments related to additional work I perform. 1)I am a twice a week columnist for the Boston Globe and receive a salary for my work. This is obviously publicly disclosed. 2)Xfact consulting: when I returned from federal service, I did a number of consulting jobs in the time before I took on duties with the Boston Globe. Xfact is a small technology firm in Massachusetts that sought my advice on strategic guidance. A former employee of mine is an employee there. I have no further work with them. 3)I speak regularly, and listing them is impossible. There are no direct relationships between them and my teaching or research. Generally they are: women's groups, military/veterans groups, civic organizations, academic organizations. 4)I serve on the advisory board of an organization that assists in securing sports events. It does not confict with my writing but seeks to guide mega-city event planning, a personal and professional interest. 5)I am part owner of The Girls, LLC. This is a family corporation to guide investments of a family fund. My father is the trustee and I have no role in investments, which are with Morgan Stanley (it is essentially a blind trust for my children.) |

From the editors of Condé Nast Traveler:
This 82-room sleeper hit in Marylebone occupies seven Georgian town houses and two mews houses. Although the rooms are slightly small and look out only over rooftops or the street, they are well conceived, with luscious furnishings in various color schemes. For instance: thick sage-colored silk curtains, a suede headboard, purple patterned cushions, and a polka-dot blanket. Some bathrooms have rain showers with gold mosaic floors, and fragrant Malin+Goetz products. Guests will appreciate underrated and oft-omitted in-room details like instant free Wi-Fi and a U.S.-format electrical outlet. An attractive bar-restaurant, with leather and velvet seating, shows off an open kitchen producing modern bistro fare such as chicken liver parfait and Thai beef salad, and memorable breakfasts such as the portobello mushrooms and poached egg on sourdough. Contemporary art is prominent, from a looped video above the reception desk to the London landscapes by draftsman Marcus James in the library, where one can take afternoon tea by a fireplace. The cheerful, efficient service is a highlight. 2011 Hot ListWhich room to book: ABBey 222, with a heated terrace, pop-up TV in front of the bed, and large bathroom with tub.

I really liked this monitor (until my son threw the camera, breaking it). I was able to see him, hear him and monitor the temperature in the room. I also really liked the music that I was able to play from the monitor. When my son would wake up, I would turn the music on, and more often then not, he would fall back asleep. I wish the range was a little bit higher (as in further distance). When my son would nap, I would work in the yard and I had to keep the monitor directly under his window or it would cut out. I was unable to visit with a neighbor in front of my house and stay "in range". We used the Skype feature a few times, but without audio it just didn't really fill my needs. Overall, a great monitor though. I'm contacting customer support after this to see if I can get the camera repaired :) |

Great system. Love seeing my little one. |

We bought this monitor for our first child last year. It's been a great monitor with a clear picture. My favorite feature is the temperature setting. The monitor has cut in and out since we got it and doesn't hold a charge very long. But it hasn't caused too much problem, it still has been a good monitor for us. |

I purchased the Lorex monitor in December of 2013 and haven't really had a problem with it until now. The sound stopped working on the monitors end, but Lorex is already trying to fix it. I use the monitor daily, even now with no sound because I can still see my baby. All in all, I have been satisfied with this monitor. |

I am very pleased with lorex! I had a problem with my baby monitor and it is out of warranty and they did what they could to fix things and make them right! |
Location: Buffalo, NY |
Unfortunately, this monitor worked great at outset, and then we had a connectivity problem with the adapter after just a few months use. They sent a replacement, but the connection is still finicky and the unit will not hold a charge - it has to constantly be kept plugged in. Not very happy about the performance. My son isn't even 2 yet and I bought this when he was a few months old.
Location: Ventura CA |
I really love this product. We have 2 grandchildren that we watch regularly. I bought an additional camera so we could have one in each of their rooms. I did have a problem with the battery in the monitor that over heated, but I notified the company and they sent a new monitor out to me right away. We also use the cameras to monitor our house when we are away. The wireless feature was easy to connect to my iphone and works great. |
Location: Alberta, Canada |
We've used this monitor for the past two years and have been fairly happy with it - clear audio, clear picture. There are lots of additional features that we don't use (lullaby, intercom, recording). My only complaint would be that the battery life degrades after a couple months. Recently we looked into buying an additional camera vs buying a different 2 camera unit. We ended up returning all the other units we tried because they didn't perform as well as the Lorex unit. |
Location: Seattle |
Good product, easy to set-up. It was working in minutes and fully functional.

I don't miss any sleep having this monitor by my side. I also don't have to rush right in to see why he is crying and make things worse once he sees me. This camera is amazing. I also have the pan tilt cameras and can watch my toddler play in his room like a big boy now. |
Location: Montreal |
I am very disapointed with this product. Before I go on telling the problem with this monitor, I have to say that the cameras are very good. We never had problems with them. The are clear and reliable.
Location: sc |
On the LW243 the view on the monitor is great during the daytime. Night time not as good as I expected but once we have them fixed on the subject I think it will be better. I did not believe this one had sounds but it does have ocean, bird sounds, and one more. That is better news then I expected.
happy daddy
Location: New Hampshire |
I'm not only pleased with the specs of the monitor and two cameras, but the customer service was very impressive. I wrote in about the charger cord breaking, and was sent a replacement timely. I also figured I'd mention the kickstand on the back of the unit broke, and was just told a replacement one is on its way. I will look to Lorex in the future for any additional product needs, and also continue to recommend this company to friends and family. |

I really appreciated the ability to monitor my sleeping baby. I really appreciated the pan and tilt camera and it was the main reason I bought the Lorex Wireless Video Home Monitor with 2 Cameras (LW242B). One of them was able to be controlled remotely. One draw back is that my screen died and I ordered a new updated version and this systems cameras would not work with my new version :( The night vision is pretty good and that is a great feature! |

First and foremost, there are no NCAA allegations against UK Head Men's Basketball Coach John Calipari. Coach Calipari was forthcoming with the University of Kentucky during the hiring process about any issues under investigation at the University of Memphis at that time.
It is normal procedure for the NCAA to ask a former coach to participate in a hearing. Therefore, Coach Calipari will participate as requested.

Christina Ricci Nude: From Wednesday Addams To Nymphomaniac
Many men fondly remember their first crushes, but seldom to we get to see them really grow up before our eyes. From big eyed child star to buxom starlet, Christina Ricci has had a lengthy career, but like most lengthy careers has had ups and downs. As she has aged and her fans have fantasized about her being up and down, her assets have changed. And by assets, we perhaps really mean:
Short of following her around and risking a restraining order, which is a stupid, evil, uncouth and dorky-ass thing to do, there are plenty of ways to take a peek at Christina Ricci nude. Her first topless nude scene came in 2001's "Prozac Nation," based on the 1994 autobiographical book by Elizabeth Wurtzel. The film was a financial flop, never even getting a theatrical release, perhaps because it was a beloved piece of "chick lit" that got more hype for being Ms. Ricci's first real screen nudity than for its angst-filled portrayal of depression. Upping its cool factor is that it featured the legendary Lou Reed playing himself, so the marketing team clearly missed its chance for a "Boobs and Lou" poster.
Christina practically grew up on-screen, with notable roles in 1990's "Mermaids," 1991's "The Addams Family" and 1995's "Casper" all hitting screens long before she was old enough for adult roles. Audiences first got a glimpse of her bombshell side with a pair of terrific films in 1998, "The Opposite of Sex" and "Buffalo '66." Both films gave her a chance to demonstrate serious skills as an actress, with both receiving raves worldwide, as well as that she had grown a serious set of breasts. Her Lolita-esque nature was used to great effect in both of these wonderful films, although a case can be made that she has yet to do such strong film work again.
Arguably her most explicit screen nudity was done for 2006's "Black Snake Moan." The film is a veritable encyclopedia of perversity and of naked Christina Ricci, chockfull of crazy, sexy and just plain odd moments. Where else can you see her naked with Justin Timberlake (putting a different spin on FutureSex, perhaps?), having sex wearing shoulder pads while laying on a football field, and naked while chained up? Toss in the fact that she's barely dressed through much of the film, takes a streamy bath and portrays a nymphomaniac and you've got the makings of a naked Christina Ricci festival. You can see her sex scenes right here.
Christina Ricci's most recent nude scene was in 2012's "Bel Ami." If indeed you choose to track the film down, bear in mind that there are multiple versions in circulation, with the American version omitting her nude scene. Luckily for her fans, there is a magical land known as Europe, and European audiences did get to take a peek. Noteworthy too is that her partner in the sex scenes is none other than Robert Pattinson, proving once and for all that vampires dig Christina Ricci as much as mortals. While the film itself might bore Kristen Stewart or nearly anyone else, having earned a measly 28% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it does offer her a chance to put on an accent while taking off her clothes.
Christina has also appeared naked or partially naked in other films, including 2009's "After Life" and 2003's "Monster", opposite an even more naked ( in make up rendering her as unappealing as possible) Charlize Theron in an Oscar-winning role.
While Christina Ricci has never done an actual nude photo shoot, she has several times appeared in public in outfits that left little to the imagination. From see through tops to cleavage baring outfits that seemed to defy gravity, the pint sized actress who stands only 5'1" has given the paparazzi plenty of sizzle over the years.

A bad boy with a good heart, Drew Castle has faced more obstacles at the tender age of 18 than most people in a lifetime. A survivor. A fighter. A dreamer. A friend to many. A target for some. After renouncing his bad boy ways in season 2 he reconnected with a former flame, who happens to be a guy. The hard partying playboy found his heart in Tommy Dinato (Ethan Daniel Corbett). With a new relationship and sexual orientation rumors running rampant around campus he became an infatuation for Oliver Cardin (Easton Schirra). Their hatred for one another lead to a passionate make out session as Drew was unfaithful to Tommy in a parking garage with Oliver. If Tommy is the light then Oliver is the dark and Drew doesn't know where he wants to be. After refusing to leave Tommy for Oliver, Oliver almost had Drew killed. Torn between Tommy and Oliver, Drew is in a position where no matter what he does he is going to hurt someone he loves.
Mallorie Watson played by Jessica Osgood
The girl next door with an edge Mallorie Watson has been the fiercely loyal best friend of Drew Castle's (Bryan James) since childhood. She has always put her friends first even at her own expense. After her dad left when she was younger she took the master bedroom of her house and became queen of the castle. Her mother never being around helped her to be more dependent at a young age. Money has been able to buy her out of anything but she has never allowed herself the luxury of trust, stability, or really known true love. Sean Mercer (Ash Nair) has been her boyfriend on and off for the last several years. Their feelings for one another are intense but neither one can let the other one in all the way, because doing that would mean they were vulnerable to one another. Barely alive after a brutal car crash, Mallorie is in a coma as her friends rally behind her.
Sean Mercer played by Ash Nair
The playboy billionaire trust fund baby that you wish was your best friend. Private jets, fast cars and lots of women are constants in Sean's life. His love for Mallorie Watson (Jessica Osgood) is all consuming and his insecurities have gotten the best of him in his relationship with her. His father is a senator and his family is extremely affluent. Sean has had to basically raise himself and his friendships are like his family. They mean everything to him. With everything anyone could want he is still just a human being with his own issues. Even when Mallorie was faithful to him he felt that she would eventually stray because he himself finds it hard to believe any one person can stay faithful to another completely. He is Drew's (Bryan James) best friend and the two have in the past liked to indulge in sinful frat boy fun. Struggling with Mallorie's accident that put her in a coma, Sean is barely hanging on emotionally as Season 3 begins.
Tommy Dinato played by Ethan Daniel Corbett
The perfect man. Drew's (Bryan James) true love and soulmate, Tommy Dinato came back to town after struggling with his own sexual identity when he was a freshman at Westfield Prep and fell in love with Drew Castle. He just returned senior year to win back Drew and openly become a couple, which he did, and they now are. As senior year progresses he is learning to deal with new challenges that go along with being in a relationship with another person. He and Drew live together and are planning on spending their lives as one after graduation. Surviving the attack against his and Drew's life that was set into motion by Oliver Cardin (Easton Schirra), he will do anything it takes to protect himself and the people he loves moving forward. Tommy is more aggressive and defensive going into Season 3. He also is becoming more aware how strong the connection is that Drew shares with Oliver in secret. Tommy has plans to major in journalism and wants to find the truth and the good in every situation and shine a light on it. Disconnected from his family after they disowned him for being gay, he has turned to Drew even more intensely. Tommy likes to plan ahead in life for things and he has everything mapped out, including eventually potentially buying a house and a ring for Drew.
Cody Ryan played by David Loren
Drew's (Bryan James) best friend and a former drug dealer, he was expelled from Westfield Prep shortly before he was due to graduate. He and Drew continued to feed the trust fund brats their illegal fixes until Drew wound up beaten and in a coma after a drug deal went south. That made Cody change his ways and clean up his act. He always has Drew's back whenever he needs it. A nice guy who never really had a home, he became a member in the trio of orphans that are Drew, Becca (Sarah Hester) and himself. Drew's parents died when he was younger and he moved in with his Aunt Kathy to survive. Becca, Drew's cousin, moved in last summer and never left either, having come from her own broken family and needing stability. Cody is 19 years old and is like the big brother to the gang still in high school that goes to Westfield Prep. Living at Aunt Kathy's with Drew, Becca and Tommy (Ethan Daniel Corbett), Cody has been in deep mourning over the death of his girlfriend who also happened to be Drew's sister and Becca's cousin. Having developed strong feelings for his deceased girlfriends cousin Becca slowly over time and being there as she ODed and nearly died herself, Cody is more determined than ever to win over who he believes could be the girl of his dreams and to never deal with or watch anyone else deal with death again.
Becca Malone played by Sarah Hester
A bad girl from the wrong side of the tracks Becca Malone came to town looking for one thing – money. Having been raised on nothing, being related to the wealthy one percent infuriated her. Her quest for vengeance turned into a grounded understanding of how hard it is to be normal at Westfield Prep and her cons and games for cash turned into genuine concern and love for her friends and relatives. With a newfound conscience came a lust for control of her emotions, which dabbling in drugs enhanced for her. She and Drew (Bryan James) share a connection that at times implies more than just cousin love, and Becca is always quick to use her feminine wiles to get what she wants. Shared in a brief tryst with Colin Morris (Mike C Manning) when she first arrived in town but stayed relatively solo looking for cash not romance. After over dosing on cocaine and nearly losing her life, Becca continues to have substance abuse problems. With an old flame named Travis (James Preston) back in her life, how long can she juggle her drug habit and her future plans before it all explodes in her face?
Natalie Cardin played by Jen Lilley
Running away from her past and hiding out from her family, Natalie works a run down dive bar, where she brings an element of grace and compassion to the lost souls that live there. Natalie doesn't want to have anything to do with the money or the power that comes with being a Cardin. Because power ultimately corrupts, and she has seen that first hand. Natalie has had no contact with her brother Oliver (Easton Schirra) in years. She graduated high school and immediately left town. Now at the tender age of 20 she takes care of herself completely. Ultimately Natalie is a hero, a warrior living her life quietly away from the chaos that she felt her family inflicted on others.

After a brief encounter with Becca (Sarah Hester) in season two, he is generally isolated from the rest of the gang, and knows no one. Dealing with family trauma constantly, Colin's only source of satisfaction comes from his art. Colin balances trying to "make it" as an artist and provide money for his little sisters. His list of enemies keeps growing as he does whatever he needs to do to stay on his feet and make sure that his family survives. Colin at times can have anger issues, he can be hot headed and loose self control. A ladies man, he usually doesn't end his nights wanting for much. He is a creative soul and can be seen with his sketch pad almost always. Colin has a recurring problem trying to self medicate or drink away his pain, and that leads him into all sorts of trouble.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs Rep for Michael Jackson and Bring 'Despair' to 'Fallon'
Karen O pays tribute to the King of Pop via fashion choice
Yeah Yeah Yeahs rained "Despair" on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon last night (June 20), performing in support of Mosquito, the SPIN cover stars' fourth full-length, which also happens to be one of the 40 Best Albums of 2013 So Far. Unfortunately, the trio weren't supported by a gospel choir, a la their "Sacrilege" appearance on the Late Show With David Letterman earlier this year. Instead, Karen O and the boys kept the stage setup simple: guitar, bass, drums, and, of course, a shimmery gold suit with a Michael Jackson T-shirt underneath.

I purchased the seafoam colour and they do not look a thing as pictured here. They are green, not blue at all. I sent them back because I wanted a blue colour as pictured on the website. I will say the quality and fit is super, the material is thicker and stretchy and soft, and the pants really hugs your curves. So I reordered them in seashell, I hope that colour is nicer than the seafoam.

If she is werewolf then she is fertile only for several months a year. Too bad for her future husband.
If she is werewolf then she is fertile only for several months a year. Too bad for her future husband.
...and Iori is a male too. Yeah, it will do. Though switching from wolf to cat won't solve the problem of fertile period.
But it isn't really so bad if you think about it - some animals are ready to get pregnant only once a year. She at least would be able to become one at least once a month....
....and you can save on preservatives (yep, that was so perverted, but so true too - and I'm not ashamed to talk about true stuff )
I didn't think about it, it may be good at this rate.Originally Posted by fifthtouch
It is not that hse just can't get pregnant, but, which is much worser, she doesn't want to have sex at all. Which is......Originally Posted by Kolox
And furthermore, such period comes not once in a month but once in a year (and lasts for 2-3 months).
Yep, that really is a problem. There would be lot's of love needed for such relationship
Although, by injecting some hormones you could make anyone sexually active - but that one costs a lot probably, normal aphrodisiac wouldn't help at all.
A cat, if I remember correctly - have a different periodic time - even more interesting and useful than humans - once a month or two, for limited time females wants to have sex badly and they can go really aggressive about it .... just imagine that.
Although I'm not the biologist - I biochemic - I don't really study about felines so my knowledge is limited...
Injecting hormones can - and probably will - make some harm (more or less, but will for sure) to the whole orhanism. If you will do it periodically for the long period of time she will become hormon-dependent - oraganism will lose its' capacity of synthesizing hormones by itself which is *cough* not very good. So this way of seducing her is not very good.
Sexually aggressive Yakumo?! I wanna see it....Yahoooo!
Well, i'm pretty far from zoology too, so my knowladge is not that great. I can make mistakes at that field.
For some reason, my little comment about the full moon started a bizarre conversation about Yakumo.
Yakumo will have to confront those sort of thoughts at some point one way or another, and I personally dont think anyone is very good for Yakumo at this point in the series. Im against people saying Harima is good for Yakumo because he doesnt have dirty thoughts about her, since the reason he doesnt have any is because he has zero romantic interest in her.
The confirmation is necessary. It is obvious that she liked Harima before this chapter but she was denying that she liked him to everybody, including herself. Admitting that she likes him was a very big step.
I dont know why you brought up Germany attacking the Soviet Union. World War II had began two years before then, and Germany wasnt declaring war before they attacked any countries. Germany had invaded several countries near the USSR before then, and planned to take over the whole world eventually. It was inevitable that theyd go after the Soviet Union eventually.
Eri had helped Harima before, but her intentions differ in the events, and they have a different context. Its important to remember that Eri was the one who shaved in the first place and she had been feeling guilty about it, and had been trying to lighten the mood between them. Consequently, the impact of her sacrifice to get his hat is diminished because shes basically making up for her previous mistake. The slate is clean between them by Chapter 85, and Eris sewing isnt done to make up for any wrongdoings shed done before; she does it to try and get closer to Harima. Eri had never done anything with the clear intention of getting closer to Harima before, so it is a turning point for her. As a matter of fact, the title of the chapter is called The Turning Point.
Harimas feelings for Tenma are reinforced every time he tries to confess to her, as he commits himself further each time, but hes essentially attempting the same thing each time and the end results have always been the same. His story and feelings would develop considerably more if he actually had success in confessing to her.
I think its necessary for Yakumo to clearly admit to herself that she likes Harima at some point to give Onigiri a stronger bearing. We dont need to literally see it happening in a chapter for Yakumo to develop those feelings, but her chances of ever ending up with Harima will be incredibly slim if we dont see it happening in the story.
The Omiai arc is about Harima helping Eri, not Eri helping Harima. Harima helps Eri develop so that shes more assertive in taking control of her future, and shes able to reject her unwanted fiancé thanks to Harima. Hence, Eri acting nice to Harima in the chapter.
Harima doesnt gain anything from Eri in the arc; he just gets drop-kicked, so its not surprising that hes rude to Eri in the chapter.
I agree, thats why it said its one of Harimas problems. I didnt say its the only one.
Harima thinks Eri is a nuisance before he saw the umbrella written on his desk, and she becomes a much bigger nuisance because he recognizes how whatever they do together can be viewed together from a romantic perspective, and thats why he starts avoiding her more seriously after the incident. Harima seeing the umbrella raises Eri from being a mere nuisance to the bane of his existence, and he starts reacting much more emotionally to Eri after that.
I brought up Harima noticing Eri as defenceless because it demonstrates he does start noticing Eri in a romantic context, even though he denies having interest in her. Its the fact that he notices he could take advantage of Eri thats important. For comparison, Harima has been in compromising positions with Yakumo before, but he never notices them from a romantic perspective because he never thinks of Yakumo in a romantic light. Harimas tunnel vision makes him ignore women that arent Tenma in terms of romance, so its big that Eri cracked his tunnel vision enough for him to even consider taking advantage of her helplessness. Tenma and Eri are the only girls hes looked at from a romantic viewpoint at this point of the series; Tenma positively, and Eri negatively.
I brought up this example because I think its pretty solid evidence even from a non-biased view, and I find it strange that anyone could see that scene as completely devoid of romance from Harimas part. Its one of the few moments Harima thinks anything positive about Eri, and I think the chapter shows that Flag could work out. Most discussions Ive seen on forums have agreed that the scene develops the Harima side of Flag.
To be honest, Im not sure why youre arguing so much against Flag and defending Onigiri since you say that youre a Flagger. Im curious as to why you like Flag in the first place.
I just mentioned Yakumos biological clock not clicking yet as an exaggerated way of saying shes not seriously looking for a boyfriend, yet. It was a joke, and it wasnt meant to be taken too seriously.
Id find her pauses suspicious as well if the pauses werent present in lots of her dialogue, but they are so I dont find her faltering speech unusual.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you. - Friedrich Nietzsche
LOL Please Read my entire Post before commenting I Did say "All we know is that it's a Monthly cycle" in the next line so I do know.
What we don't know is whether it's a full moon thing or a biological thing.
Btw do we know when her mind reading abilities kicked in? Assuiming it began when her biological clocked started it'd probably start between the ages of 12-14
But if we assume that she's a werewolf... well werecat because she doesn't like dogs, when was she biten? could we assume it's a genetic family thing... and that tenma can bend spoons more easily during the fullmoon?

As for Much Ado About Nothing, while it starts promisingly and features a few interesting performances, Angela Thomas's direction lacks the subtlety necessary to keep the production from growing tedious. The action begins on a high note as Don Pedro, Prince of Aragon (Christopher Railey), Count Claudio (Rob de los Reyes), and Signore Benedick (Paul Thomas) return from battle to Messina (Italy) to stay with Leonato, the Governor (Kerry Sensenbach). Claudio and Hero (Leonato's daughter, played by Shannon Emerick) fall in love and court each other in a conventional manner; conversely, Hero's cousin, Beatrice (Teresa Turiano), and Benedick woo by one-upping each other with pointed barbs, both insisting they will never be caught dead submitting to the repressive institution of marriage. The comedy's pithy tone turns dark when Claudio wrongly accuses Hero (at the altar, of all places!) of having betrayed him; in this production, however, the mood becomes anxious instead of dark. As the malapropism-spouting Constable Dogberry, Matt Regan enlivens the proceedings while simultaneously exposing the plot against Hero in time to save the day.
Actors in minor roles in A Midsummer Night's Dream play major roles here. Although everyone rises to the challenge of learning the lines to two Shakespearean comedies, in Much Ado About Nothing the ensemble seems exhausted by the process. After a while, the actors walk on-stage, recite their lines, and walk off, as if everyone's dutifully waiting for the play's betrayal to untangle itself and the postponed weddings to take place. Paul Thomas's solid performance as Benedick provides an exception. Although the actor relies too heavily on exaggerated facial tics to convey his character's confused passions, by the end of the play he has transformed Benedick from a prickly bachelor to a mature man capable of committing to love. In counterpoint to Benedick, Teresa Turiano's nervous Beatrice slings the requisite affronts but never seems to relax fully into her role. Shannon Emerick provides a nice surprise as Hero, bringing dignity and strength to a character who is usually milquetoast-bland.
Florida Playwrights' Theatre continues to bring Shakespeare to undeniable life in its small storefront theater -- no small feat for American actors largely untrained in the Shakespearean tongue. I look forward to seeing the company's version of what everyone in the theater world superstitiously calls "the Scottish play" this coming February.
