Intelligence chief: Budget cuts risk US security
Wednesday - 3/13/2013, 11:50am EDT
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The top U.S. intelligence chief says that budget cuts have jeopardized America's security and safety -- and will only get worse over time.
Director of National Intelligence James R. Clapper told a Senate Intelligence Committee hearing Tuesday that the across-the-board funding cuts have shaved about $4 billion from intelligence budgets. He said that amounted to about 10 percent of national intelligence programs.
Most of the funding cuts have come in the Defense Department, but Clapper said thousands of FBI agents possibly could be furloughed from their jobs. He said operations for collecting intelligence -- through personal contacts and technical spying -- also will be reduced.
But he said the cuts will be felt across the entire 16-agency U.S. intelligence community.
The across-the-board automatic cuts of $85 billion began March 1.

Evoke happy thoughts with bergamot and citrus bubbles
Everyone's favorite nanny, a certain Mary Poppins, who blew in on the East wind and landed at 17 Cherry Tree Lane, was the original inspiration for our Pop In the Bath bubble bar. If you're in need of sorting out a chaotic day we suggest you take a calming bergamot, lemon and mandarin bubble bath. The scent of Mediterranean mandarin groves and orange blossoms breeze past you as you lay back in the bubbles, perfect for dreaming of summertime no matter the season.
- Do it sitting down: If you're not in the mood to do it standing up, Pop in the Bath has the same fragrance as our Olive Branch shower gel.
- Double your pleasure: Orange blossom absolute comes from the blossoms of the bitter orange tree - the same tree that gives us neroli.
- Orange you going to give it a try? Mandarin oil is a delightfully uplifting citrus oil from the mandarin fruit.
Customer Review
"definitely one of the best scents from lush, imho, this one is slightly woodsy and has a kind of resin-y, woodsy, 'unisex' smell alongside the citrus notes, which I really appreciate. nice fluffy bubbles. I get at least two uses out of a single bar, there's no need to use

Hidan (飛段, Hidan) was an S-rank missing-nin who defected from Yugakure and joined the Akatsuki. There, he was partnered with Kakuzu, despite the two's somewhat mutual dislike of each other. He was also the second newest member of Akatsuki at the time of his introduction.[2] Kisame Hoshigaki laughingly referred to Hidan and Kakuzu as the "Zombie Combo" (ゾンビコンビ, Zonbi Konbi).[3]
After Yugakure deteriorated from a shinobi village to a tourist site, Hidan became infuriated with how things were turning out. He believed that the shinobi that resided there were meant to kill, and thus slaughtered his neighbours before leaving Yugakure, and joining the cult-like faith known as Jashin, a religion that worshipped a deity of the same name.[1] The primary teaching of this faith appears to be outright slaughter, where anything less than utter destruction is considered a sin.[4] Through experiments with Jashin's secret technique, Hidan was granted immortality. Eventually, he joined Akatsuki after seeing Kakuzu, a man who he saw as a pioneer in immortality,[5] and he was later partnered with him.
Hidan was one of the most foul-mouthed, disrespectful characters in the series; he frequently swore and complained at allies and opponents alike, contrary to being a "religious" person. He rarely used honourifics when speaking, and, even then, usually as a form of sarcasm, for example when he called Deidara "Deidara-chan".[6] He was the only member of Akatsuki who did not respect their leader, Pain, and openly declared his willingness to kill him around others. The only respect he ever seemed to give was to his god, and, even then, he was quite willing to use his name as an insult. He openly held his partner, Kakuzu, in contempt for his habit of blasphemy, love of money, and Kakuzu's frequent ridicule of Hidan's religion and battle style. Despite this, whenever Hidan was in the mood to kill, the two worked together flawlessly in battle, and one can infer that he did care somewhat for his partner, from his panicked reaction when he almost killed Kakuzu while being possessed by Shikamaru's technique.
Hidan had absolutely no moral restraints regarding the people he killed; he considered slaughter a religious calling, and often took considerable pleasure in making his opponents' deaths as painful as possible. The amulet around his neck was a symbol of Jashin, and he used it to pray to his god before battling, requesting a good kill, or (when he was not allowed to) for forgiveness.[7] Given the requirements of his voodoo-like curse ritual, he was quite willing to inflict pain and injuries on himself, and showing a masochist side as he openly relished the shared pain between him and the cursed victim. Despite this, he reacted "normally" (that is, he didn't enjoy the pain) to being injured by someone else, or when the opponent didn't share the pain.
Hidan's behaviour in the anime bordered on insanity; he was frequently heard shrieking loudly while attacking, and laughed maniacally when he was about to kill Asuma Sarutobi. Hidan also appeared to be quite spiteful towards his enemies (and nearly everyone else), even commenting to Shikamaru Nara that "I've been waiting for this" ("this" referring to using his ceremony to kill Shikamaru).
However, his immortality had made him arrogant, and he frequently engaged opponents with no regard for strategy, save to acquire some of their blood. Although ridiculed for his foolishness by Kakuzu and Shikamaru alike, being obviously inferior in tactical genius to either of them, and even admitting that he was not very intelligent himself, he was able to analyse the nature and limits of Shikamaru's Shadow Imitation Technique, and conducted battle accordingly (though he retained his arrogant attitude even under these circumstances). Interestingly, he seemed to panic when Shikamaru took control of his body, shouting at Kakuzu to do something in a rather frantic voice. He didn't particularly like it when Kakuzu assisted in his battles, and only called for his help when he decided he needed it. Kakuzu tended to return the favour by coming in "late" and letting Hidan be wounded (though still alive) as punishment for underestimating his opponents. After his head was reattached, he showed a great hatred towards Asuma. In the anime, after being recreated, Hidan stated that being controlled by Kabuto Yakushi was the worst.[8]
Hidan had medium-length silver hair that was slicked back and distinctive purple eyes. He wore his Akatsuki cloak open with no shirt, only pants under it revealing his Yugakure forehead protector around his neck and Jashin amulet. He also wore dark green nail polish and his orange Akatsuki ring on his left index finger, which bears the kanji for Three (三, san). When not fighting, he was always seen with his Triple-Bladed Scythe on his back. After his fight with Asuma, Hidan lost part of his left ear and Kakuzu stitched his neck after he was briefly decapitated.
In the Chikara Arc, upon being recreated, Hidan initially lacked clothing, but later wore a black cloak with red lining, similar to the one being worn by Kabuto and the reincarnated Akatsuki members at the time. Rather than the purple eyes of his original self, the recreated Hidan possessed eyes with dark grey sclera and white, snake-like irides. When Kabuto used a talisman to take full control of Hidan, his eyes instead had black sclera and white, pupil-less irides.
Hidan was a powerful S-rank missing-nin whose skills were enough for him to be accepted into Akatsuki. Along with his partner Kakuzu, he was able to capture the jinchūriki of the Two-Tails, Yugito Nii, despite her transforming into the Two-Tails.
Hidan's main advantage was his inability to die from virtually all causes, with the exception of malnutrition.[9] This is a result of extensive experimenting with the Jashin religion's various techniques. His immortality allowed him to survive numerous fatal injuries,[10] and almost any form of dismemberment; he even retained his ability to speak after having his head cut off.[11] However, his head still needed to be connected to his body in order to control it,[12] so Kakuzu reattached it, and other body parts, when needed.[13] Despite Shikamaru's attempt to blow him into smithereens using hundreds of explosive tags adhered to his entire body, the former only succeeded in decapitating him (after weakening the tendons that Kakuzu used to re-attach his head) with the full impact of the explosion. Even though he was impervious to most physical attacks, as well as able to survive the injuries that actually got through to him, he was still susceptible to pain, which he came to find pleasure in at the expense of his opponents.
This inability to die was the primary reason for his partnership with Kakuzu. Since Kakuzu couldn't kill him, Kakuzu didn't need to find new partners after his fits of rage.[14] Although the two disliked working together, this advantage made them the ideal team. His immortality was exploited in mutual advantage by Kakuzu, where the pair would perform a combo involving one of Kakuzu's hearts using Wind Release: Pressure Damage in unison with Hidan striking at an opponent. Such an attack would maim the victim but leave Hidan unimpaired.
Physical Prowess
In battle, Hidan was shown to be very skilled in taijutsu. He wielded a Triple-Bladed Scythe that he used as a short and long-range weapon. Despite its large and dangerous shape, Shikamaru speculated it was intended to draw blood, instead of inflicting fatal damage. He controlled it with a long metal cable, that was connected to a coil hidden under his robe. He was exceptionally skilled at wielding it, capable of deflecting a swarm of shuriken thrown at close-range. He has also demonstrated tremendous aim and control of where and how it will strike, making it highly difficult for his opponents to predict the weapon's path. The unusual curvilinear trajectory that it took made it even more unpredictable, and Hidan was shown to be capable of causing the scythe to swerve perpendicularly and unexpectedly at a target even though the scythe was quite far from him. However, during his final battle against Kakashi and Team Asuma, the cable was destroyed by an explosive tag attached to a kunai thrown by Shikamaru. Hidan stated that the large size inhibited his attack speed, claiming he was the slowest attacker in Akatsuki.[15]
Nevertheless, Hidan was extremely agile, having tremendous acrobatic prowess and dexterity in avoiding attacks. He could evade a massive fire ball fired at him at point-blank range, which reduced the building he was standing in to rubble, and was shown to be capable of dodging Asuma's Chakra Blade aimed at him in mid-air, by thrusting his scythe into the trunk of a tree and using it as a stand, halting his fall and making the blade miss by a margin.
Jashin Ritual and Curse
Using his weapon, Hidan makes every attempt to acquire an opponent's blood, where upon consuming it he draws the Jashin symbol on the ground. This process somehow "links" his body with his opponent's.[16] Once this link is established, Hidan takes on a Grim Reaper-like appearance, with black skin and white bone-like markings.[17] In this state, he is essentially a living voodoo doll for his opponent; any damage that is done to him is also inflicted on the opponent.[18] Hidan referred to this as his "curse", and he was fond of toying with his victims by inflicting non-fatal injuries with his retractable spears, while taking obvious pleasure in their shared pain.[19] Once he was done playing with the opponent, or if he wanted to kill them quickly, he impaled himself through the heart killing his opponent in the process, [20] and then relishing in intense satisfaction.
Despite its effectiveness, the curse has many requirements, and can be a slow technique to employ. The curse can be avoided if the opponent happens to know what to look out for, and knows of Hidan's inability to die. The link between Hidan's curse and his opponent could be broken prematurely if Hidan was removed from the symbol;[21] However, Hidan would remain in his transformed state, allowing the curse to be easily re-established by him simply entering the symbol's borders once more.[22]

Part II
Kazekage Rescue Arc
Like all Akatsuki members, Hidan is shown to be present (in hologram form) at the sealing of the One-Tailed Shukaku. When Zetsu reveals their enemy's presence, Hidan offers to take on Might Guy because of an apparent failure to capture a jinchūriki. What jinchūriki and how this mission ended in failure remains unknown.
Hidan and Kakuzu Arc
Hidan and Kakuzu made their first actual appearance after cornering Yugito Nii, the jinchūriki of the Two-Tails, in the sewers of Kumogakure. Initially, Hidan offered Yugito the option of surrender, claiming his faith did not allow him to fight an opponent only to leave them half-dead (for the capture of her tailed beast).[23] Yugito refused his offer, and transformed herself into the Two-Tails, but the Akatsuki duo still managed to defeat her, and gave her to Zetsu, before they continued to the Land of Fire.
Upon arrival in the Land of Fire, Hidan begrudgingly joined Kakuzu in attacking a temple, so that they could collect the bounty on the head monk, Chiriku.[24] The monk and his numerous subordinates were slaughtered, and Hidan repeated his lengthy ritual. Afterwards, Hidan reluctantly travelled with Kakuzu to take the monk's body to the nearest bounty station.
Reaching the bounty station, Hidan opted to stay outside, not liking the fact that the station was hidden inside a lavatory that smelled particularly foul. While he waited for Kakuzu to collect the money, Hidan was ambushed by Asuma Sarutobi, Shikamaru Nara, Kotetsu Hagane, and Izumo Kamizuki. Despite being immobilised, and stabbed in the chest by two large kunai,[25] Hidan asked who the shinobi were while acting as though he did not even register the fatal blows, much to the Konoha group's surprise.
Kakuzu soon arrived, forcing Hidan's assailants to fall back. Instructing Kakuzu to leave the battle to him, Hidan exchanged blows with Asuma, eventually succeeding in obtaining some blood and initiating his curse, right before Asuma used Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning on him, causing Asuma to suffer from third degree burns. Not realising what Hidan had done, Asuma charged, and fell over in pain when Hidan stabbed himself in the leg. As Hidan prepared to kill Asuma, Shikamaru, realising what was going on, again immobilised Hidan, but had difficulty maintaining his hold. While Hidan was momentarily restrained, Shikamaru analysed everything Hidan had said and done up to that point, eventually figuring out the weakness of Hidan's technique.[26] With that epiphany, Shikamaru managed to force Hidan from the safety of his symbol, temporarily releasing Asuma from Hidan's curse.
After cutting Hidan's ear, to ensure he was then freed from the curse, Asuma decapitated Hidan. To the Konoha ninja's horror, the severed head loudly cursed and swore at Asuma for doing so, and then at Kakuzu for not stopping them. Kakuzu casually shrugged this off, as he felt it was Hidan's fault for telling him to not interfere.[27][28] While Asuma and the others stood shocked by Hidan's survival, Kakuzu reattached Hidan's head to his body, again surprising the Konoha ninja. As Kakuzu dealt with Kotetsu and Izumo, Hidan re-entered his symbol, and linked himself once more to Asuma. Hidan swung his scythe at Asuma, only for Asuma to duck and the scythe to bury itself into Hidan's own vital organs. Asuma doubled over with pain, and as Shikamaru rushed to Asuma's aid, Hidan used the opportunity to stab himself through the heart with his spear, which fatally injured Asuma. Asuma coughed up blood, and collapsed, as Hidan smiled enjoyably, with Izumo, Kotetsu and Shikamaru watching in sorrow and horror. Shikamaru loudly swore at Hidan, and charged at him, but collapsed from exhaustion.
Reinforcements from Konoha arrived as Shikamaru collapsed. Although Hidan expressed interest in getting to kill them as well, the Akatsuki leader called him and Kakuzu away. Angry, and promising to kill the Konoha ninja later, Hidan left with Kakuzu to a secluded area, where they spent three days sealing the Two-Tails (and, in the manga, another three days sealing the Three-Tails).
Once the sealing was over, Hidan and Kakuzu headed for Konoha, eager to continue their battle. Along the way, the two were once again ambushed by Shikamaru, the latter having waited for them, this time accompanied by the other remaining members of Team 10. Although Kakuzu managed to escape from Shikamaru's shadow, Hidan was left under Shikamaru's control, and was forced to fight his partner.
When Kakuzu was apparently killed by Kakashi Hatake, Kakashi prepared to finish Hidan as well, but was quickly repelled by a surprisingly alive Kakuzu. Freed from Shikamaru's shadow, due to its inherent time limit, Hidan charged at Kakashi, while Kakuzu fired blasts of elemental attacks at the duo's opponents. Recognising that the two-man Akatsuki team was too powerful as a pair, and needed to be separated, Shikamaru volunteered to draw the immortal away.[29] Hidan, having been trapped by Shikamaru's technique so many times, was determined not to fall prey to it again, and made sure to avoid the shadows. In doing so, Hidan mocked Shikamaru for fighting in a sneaky and distant manner. While focusing on the shadow attacks, Hidan didn't notice Shikamaru suddenly appearing close enough to stun him with a punch to the face. Hidan blocked this with his hand, connecting their shadows and as a result, he was trapped by Shikamaru's shadow, and was led away by him.[30]
Hidan was led towards an area that was surrounded with wire and explosive tags, which Shikamaru had prepared in advance. However, Hidan had no desire to escape, and he attacked Shikamaru when the shadow technique wore off. It appeared as though he had acquired some of Shikamaru's blood. Quickly drawing his symbol and transforming, Hidan seemingly killed Shikamaru. Once Hidan departed, the "fallen" Shikamaru jumped up, still alive, and tried to decapitate Hidan from behind, although failing to make a cut deep enough. Surprised that Shikamaru was alive, Hidan learned he had been tricked into consuming Kakuzu's blood, so he, in effect, destroyed one of Kakuzu's hearts.[31]
As Hidan attempted to kill Shikamaru in retaliation, Hidan was again stopped by Shikamaru's shadow. With Hidan restrained, Shikamaru covered Hidan with the surrounding explosive tags, tying Hidan to the spot. With Hidan unable to move, Shikamaru activated a prepared mark to cause the ground beneath Hidan to break away. He then informed Hidan that the forest that they were in belonged to his clan, and that they would ensure that Hidan remained bound to it for eternity. Finally, having a chance to avenge Asuma's death, Shikamaru lit a cigarette (in the anime, it was changed to Asuma's lighter) and tossed it at Hidan, causing the explosive tags to detonate.[32] Hidan was literally blown to bits. As Hidan's remains fell into the pit below, his detached head promised to kill Shikamaru in any way possible. Shikamaru caused the pit to collapse, trapping the screaming Hidan beneath the rubble.[33]
Though believed dead by Akatsuki,[34] Hidan is in fact alive but is dying slowly from a lack of nutrition.[9]
Chikara Arc
Main article: Chikara Arc
In the anime, a short while after the Five Kage Summit,[35] Kabuto scrounged some of Hidan's DNA from the Nara Clan Forest. Not long after the massacre of the Tonika villagers, Kabuto confronted Naruto Uzumaki and Sakura Haruno, who were investigating the incident. Kabuto then used the The Hole's water and his snakes to recreate Hidan, whom he then took control of with a talisman. The newly-formed Hidan was then sent into battle against Team Kakashi on Kabuto's orders, after using a scroll to summon the original Hidan's scythe, which had also been salvaged.[36] After a short fight, Kabuto retreated, having a snake ingest Clone-Hidan to transport him away. Later clothed in the attire of Kabuto and his reincarnated shinobi, Clone-Hidan's body remained dormant while Kabuto made adjustments to the technique.[37]
The next day, Clone-Hidan, with his original self's personality recreated, along with a reincarnated Deidara, killed the Hachō Village guards who were guarding The Hole as a diversion for Kabuto to sneak into the village, a fact that greatly annoyed Clone-Hidan. The two began bickering about their respective defeats, which nearly escalated into a fight between them, when Yamato and Sai arrived with more Hachō guards.[8] After a Tailed Beast Ball fired by a clone of Naruto detonated near the two, they were recalled by Kabuto, with Clone-Hidan being consumed by a snake once again, despite attempting to resist.[38]
When the Ama no Hoko was activated, Kabuto's snake released Clone-Hidan to battle against the Konoha shinobi, at which point he found himself facing Team Asuma with a desire to enact his revenge on Shikamaru. Clone-Hidan managed to obtain some of the team members' blood from their battle and fled towards the Jashin symbol he had previously created above The Hole. However, Shikamaru restrained Clone-Hidan as his body began to break down due to the short lifespan of the snakes comprising him, ultimately resulting in the clone's death.[39]
Shinobi World War Arc
When Kakuzu was reincarnated during the Fourth Shinobi World War, he took Hidan's absence as proof that he was still alive.[40]

Creation and Conception
In Naruto Hiden: Sha no Sho Character Official Data Book, Kishimoto revealed that Hidan's design, with the skeletal patterns and scythe, were meant to resemble a shinigami (死神, "death god," "grim reaper"), because "Hidan uses curses and things". He also noted that he originally planned for the scythe to have a number of special tricks, but "didn't have time to show them all".
- The first kanji in Hidan's name (飛) stands for hisha, the rook in shōgi. Similarly the first kanji in his partner's name means "bishop".
- Hidan's Jashin amulet appears with the point of the triangle pointing upwards in the manga, and pointing down in the anime, but on episode 75, minute 19:05, it appears pointing upwards.
- Before his début in the manga, a character with no clear similarities to Hidan appears during Akatsuki meetings. It is unknown if this is one of Kakuzu's previous partners or simply an early design for Hidan.
- Both Hidan's and Kakuzu's faces were on a pair of lanterns in the omake of Naruto: Shippūden episode 129, Hidan being to the left and Kakuzu being to the right.
- In chapter 323 of the manga Hidan's forehead protector was mistakenly depicted with a Konohagakure symbol.[41]
- According to the databook(s):
- Hidan's hobby is "Jashinistic" activities.
- Hidan's favourite food is spare ribs. His least favourite are any kind of vegetable or devotion cuisine.
- Hidan's desired opponents are heretics.
- Hidan's favourite words are "massacre" (殺戮, satsuriku) and "Jashinism" ("ジャシン教", "Jashin-kyō").
- "Now! Let's savour the utmost of suffering together!"[42]
- (To Kakuzu after being told not to die) "Every damn time… That's not something you say to me… If they can kill me, I couldn't be happier. Although… I don't think they can!"[43]
- (To the Konoha shinobi) "Hell that hurts… You go and stab me all over… Damn both of you… Divine judgement awaits heathens ignorant to the pain of others."[44]
- (After wounding Asuma) "Yeah hurts good doesn't it? Attacking the vitals is such a waste! This pain, this is the best! As the other dies, their agony radiates through my body! And living through it feels even better!"[45]
- (To Shikamaru before being buried alive) "I'll never die… Even if you destroy my body, and I'm left with nothing but my head… I'll escape somehow… and when I do, I'll find you and bite your throat out!"[46]

Fact of the day
Information is the most powerful weapon.
Fact N°
Peer pressure can make you incorrectly remember shared experiences.
In a study published in the journal Science, researchers demonstrated the phenomenon of "infectious" memory, whereby groups of people misremembering a scenario can cause others to do the same. Subjects were shown a movie and tested for individual memory. They were then exposed to social manipulation (where a group shared manufactured recollections of the movie) and tested again. Subjects were inaccurate 15% of the time with no manipulation present, but they conformed their memories to the false recollections they'd heard 68% of the time.
Fact N°
Astronomers have discovered a planet made of diamond.
The planet appears to consist of carbon and is the most dense planet yet discovered, leading astronomers to conclude that its carbon is in crystalline (diamond) form. The planet, more massive than Jupiter but 20 times as dense, is about one-eighth of the way from the Earth to the center of the Milky Way, or 4,000 light years away. The planet orbits a pulsar, and scientists suggest it was once a star itself until the formation of the pulsar caused it to lose its outer layers and become the carbon-oxygen rarity it is now.
Fact N°
Internet pornography contributes to sexual dysfunction.
More and more otherwise young, healthy men are reporting a form of erectile dysfunction that appears to result from heavy use of internet pornography. A study by the Italian Society of Andrology and Sexual Medicine recently investigated the otherwise anecdotal problem. A survey of 28,000 young men determined that "excessive consumption" or pornography led to desensitization, a gradual decrease in real-life libido, and finally diagnosable sexual dysfunction. The "youthful ED" condition is reversible, but recovery is slow, and takes weeks or even months.
Fact N°
Men sleep less -- and fall asleep less readily -- than women.
The circadian rhythms of men and women are markedly different. The average circadian period for a man is 24 hours and 11 minutes, which is six minutes longer than the average for a woman. In day-to-day-living, this means that men tend to want to sleep later and wake up later, a tendency that compounds over time. In addition, twice as many women as men have circadian periods shorter than 24 hours, meaning that their tendencies are more likely to compound in the opposite manner (falling asleep and waking up progressively earlier).
Fact N°
22,000 pieces of space garbage large enough to damage satellites and spaceships are surrounding Earth.
It may soon become necessary to clean the massive collection of debris in orbit around Earth. Its orbit was already filled with 50 years of various pieces of trash -- discarded boosters and other pieces of spacefaring objects -- but two recent events have doubled the number of fragments in orbit (a 2009 satellite crash and a Chinese anti-satellite weapon test in 2007). One DARPA study, "The Catcher's Mitt Study," mentions nets, harpoons, magnets, and a large umbrella-like device among its possible cleanup methods.
Fact N°
A city in Germany has introduced the use of tax meters for prostitutes.
A city in Germany has introduced the use of tax meters for prostitutes.
Prostitution is legal in Bonn, Germany, but it also comes with income tax, just like any other job. Therefore, prostitutes now use a "sex tax meter" for six euros per night, which ensures accurate taxation. The meters are not unlike parking meters, and dispense tickets which roving inspectors then check for. Prostitutes caught without a ticket face a reprimand, heavy fines, or possibly a ban.
Fact N°
Narcissists are aware of their own narcissism.
A study in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology revealed that, even though they're often characterized by seeing themselves as perfect, narcissists are also not surprised to be told they're self-absorbed. People who are self-centered are actually more likely to identify themselves as self-centered (and they're likely to expect that other people view them that way too). Narcissists generally don't see these as negative traits, however; they tend to identify their self-importance as a positive characteristic, and conclude that anyone who disagrees with that assessment is mistaken or jealous.

B.Hayes Stoked on these right meow. Got a 14 instead of the usual 13 i get, and it made all the difference. Maybe a little too loose, so a half size up would be perfect. They are light and breath well and look good. I love the grey and will probably get another color soon.
Ben Sperry i haven't worn a pair of Etnies in a while, and i saw these for only 25 dollars so i had to get them, i wear a size 13 originally but i bought a size 14 in these since they didnt have any closer to my size. they are great shoes to skate in and i barely feel it when im walking and when i think about it, it feels like a bed of roses. i love them
Freddie B WOW, I stumbles over these shoes online looking for a new pair of shoes. I usually buy a certain brand, and thought I might try a new brand. I haven't had too much luck in the past with some of the big name ones. But I ordered The Etnies Marana black/gum I love them the snug comfy fir and the firm feel to the ground make these a great to me. I will be buying more of them in the future. Thought I would pass this on to others thinking on trying them. Thanks
Campbel macintosh Really good & really light & comfy with good impact protection but run a bit thin / narrow.
Howard Burns Never worn Etnies before until now but these are fantastic and great all rounders and at a good price. Got the brown/gum (fantastic colour with denim) and the camoflage/orange in the Maranas, just before they sold out. Do a lot of riding to work and mountain biking (with flat pedals) and a lot of walking everywhere too. The Maranas are sturdy and well made with a supportive and secure sole. Although a snug fit, they are utterly comfortable and allow flexibility and feeling. Consequently, I've ended up living in them all day, so I'll probably wig them out too quickly. I'll just have to get some more.
Eddy Scquizzato best bmx shoes ever
Maichael Ho I have wide feet but this shoe broke in pretty quick. Light weight and breathable. Good price for this shoe. The only down side is the insole is thin and feels like it could wear out soon.
email@example.com 5éme paire de Marana, toujours aussi content : belles et bonne chaussures, confortables, solides, ...
Jonas Where is the classic red Ryan Sheckler Marana? You dont sell it anymore? :( Awesome shoes by the way.

That looks dope and for somer reason it tides me over for the wait on the new Star Wars.
The new International trailer has arrived for Star Trek Into Darkness. The new poster has hit the web as well. This trailer is a good mix of action and story. It also has a nice shot of Alice Eve as Carol Marcus. Khan or Gary Mitchell? The search continues, but after this trailer I am leaning more towards Mitchell.
The Plot: In Summer 2013, pioneering director J.J. Abrams will deliver an explosive action thriller that takes Star Trek Into Darkness.
When the crew of the Enterprise is called back home, they find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization has detonated the fleet and everything it stands for, leaving our world in a state of crisis.
With a personal score to settle, Captain Kirk leads a manhunt to a war-zone world to capture a one man weapon of mass destruction.
As our heroes are propelled into an epic chess game of life and death, love will be challenged, friendships will be torn apart, and sacrifices must be made for the only family Kirk has left: his crew.
Star Trek Into Darkness stars Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, John Cho, Bruce Greenwood, Simon Pegg, Anton Yelchin, Benedict Cumberbatch, Alice Eve and Peter Weller.
Star Trek Into Darkness arrives on May 17th, 2013.

That looks dope and for somer reason it tides me over for the wait on the new Star Wars.
So the poster tells us that they get it oversees before we do. Why is that always the case?
With regards to Alice Eve (and to quote the Animaniacs).... Hello Nurse (Chapel)! :)
That entire trailer looks pretty dope too. Looking forward to it.
This looks amazing on so many levels. I wonder how the fans of Star Trek that disliked the reboot will feel about this one. It is a continuation, but looks like a great movie. It may bring some of them on board the new storyline.
millean - any post with an Animaniacs reference is a win. Maybe more o's in the Hello.
That looks awsome and can't wait to see this, long live the new Star Trek universe!!!
Awesome. Looks fantastic to me! May 17th can't get here soon enough! Bring it ON!!!
Like the last one, this looks more like a star wars movie than a star trek movie. While I will likely thoroughly enjoy it, I'm not sure if Gene Rodenberry wouldn't be rolling in his grave. My understanding of his original vision was a show that was exciting but eplored various social issues of the time. I'm curious as to how J.J. is going to make star wars feel different from this new genre of star trek. Different stories and characters, but similar in tone and action I would imagine. Hopefully they feel distinctly different.
I don't remember any of the other Trek movies really exploring any social issues - maybe because they're movies and not a tv series. Seems to me all the movies, aside from ST:TMP, went for the fast paced action/comedy slant. This new version from J.J. Abrahms is only follwing suit.
That said, I'm quite excited to see this movie. It looks great! Well, I am getting tired of them trashing the Enterprise every other film, though... Lol!

text: Reboot the machine when deactivating compiz. Restarting X11 won't help. At least this fixes the sluggishness here. (And not only that, it also brings 3D back. For some reason, when disabling compiz or any other compositing manager, 3D stops working completely, including gl/gl2 output in mplayer and I need to reboot.)

Continuity and Change
11 July 2013
,I've just spent a few minutes taking in this blog feed - it's been a while since I visited and it's amazing how many new bloggers and topics you can find here. Well done everyone!
My own contributions have been more sporadic, and for that, dear reader, I hope you'll forgive me.
Even though a lot has been going on here at St Fagans, most of it has been behind the scenes - and not the interesting, 'sneaky peek' behind the scenes either. Nope, it's been large grids and even larger bits of paper; evaluation, planning and decision-making. Nothing to write home about maybe (although my mother does love those letters*) - but the results of this hard work will start to show on-site very soon.
We've completed a fair bit of infrastructure work, audited our sprawling, wooded site for 3G and wi-fi capability, and worked with an access consultant to learn more about how to open up the site to a wider variety of peoples. I can't wait to see how we implement what we've learned.
The aim is to keep that special something that makes St Fagans such a draw to visitors from all over the world, and to improve the facilities as well. We want to do this is a way which is open and participatory, so our committee room doors have flung open to welcome new youth, teacher and craft forums, to name a few. The galleries are also getting a complete re-vamp, and I'm very curious to see what my colleagues have come up with for the new display.
Meantime, I would like to keep you updated as the project develops - the question is how?
Do I write more about our current buildings' history? Or show you the new ones as they appear?
The big stories, or the everyday wonders? How about our future plans for sleepovers and performances? More Tudors? Less Tudors? Fewer Tudors?
I'm a firm believer that if you don't know, you should ask. So, to practise what I preach:
- What would you like to see on this blog?
Pop your suggestions in the comments - I look forward to hearing from you.

ExArc 2013 Conference
10 January 2013
,It's been a while since I last blogged from St Fagans - there's been a glitch in the matrix and we still haven't quite got to the bottom of it. But we'll get there.
That's one way of apologising that there won't be any pictures with this post. Anyway, onwards:
This week, Museum Wales and Cardiff University will be hosting the annual ExArc conference. ExArc, in this context, refers to Experimental Archaeology; a hands-on approach to learning about the past, which looks at the 'how?' of history, as well as the 'when?'.
ExArcers' work is in raw materials, painstaking detail and learning from mistakes as well as triumphs. The research they take part in can range from bronze-casting or iron-smelting using rudimentary tools; to recreating underwear or researching the practicalities of life in the past.
I have been lucky enough to learn a lot from ExArcers over the last few years, and so am very proud that St Fagans will feature in their visit down to Cardiff. We're known here for our hands-on approach, and I suspect we could learn an awful lot from these trailblazers!
While the conference is completely full, you can follow the discussion online using the hashtag #eauk2013.
The twitter stream is already full of interesting people, travelling here from all around as I type. If you're planning to attend, please do come and say hello. You will know me by my, erm, museum name badge?
Open Doors: A Tour of St Teilo's Original Wall-paintings
19 September 2012
,We have a limited amount of places left on a very special event - and I thought I'd give you loyal readers first dibs!
I will be taking a small group behind the scenes to look at some very fragile, very rare fragments of Tudor-era wall-paintings. Painted around 1500, they were moved to the museum when we moved St Teilo's Church from Pontarddulais. You can see replicas of these paintings on the walls of the reconstructed church today. If you've ever wondered what the originals look like, then this is the workshop for you!
A few have been on display in the past, but this tour will provide unprecedented access to the paintings in their dormant state, as well as a chance to learn how, and why, we removed them.
The tour takes place on the 25th of September. The morning session will look at St Teilo's as it stands today, running from 11:00 to 13:00. The afternoon session will take you into the stores, and will take place between 14:00 and 16:00. Numbers are very limited so booking is essential. Phone (029) 20 57 35 29 to claim your place!
Radio 2 Arts Show - tonight
27 July 2012
,Twice in one week? Just a quick post before I succumb to blog fever:
On tuesday, I visited the BBC in Llandaf to talk a bit about my work, and St Fagans in general, for the Radio 2 Arts Show. This week, Penny Smith is standing in for Claudia Winkleman, so it's a good job I decided to forego the nude-coloured-lipstick tribute I had planned. The interview was conducted across the BBC aether - me in front of a box of very compelling lights and buttons, them in a padded room in London - and so I did end up feeling overdressed all the same.
Anyway, we had great fun, even though the question of the Welsh language's perceived lack of vowels did come up, which can sometimes lead to a leap in my blood pressure. I consider it a public service to have tackled that myth with grace and aplomb. Tune in to see if you agree!
Making blogs while the sun shines
26 July 2012
,Reading back over my entries, it seems I only really like posting here when the sun is shining! It's another beautiful day at St Fagans and it seemed only right to fire up the blogging engine and start writing.
You'll find us in a very cheerful mood at the moment: after many months of working collaboratively, we handed in a dossier as thick as a loaf of bara brith to the Heritage Lottery Foundation. They, in turn, pored over it and decided to award St Fagans with a whopping grant of £11.5 million, to fund its redevelopment. We still have a few quid to raise in order to reach our goal, and so the '£1 appeal' was launched last week. Its message? If you've got a pound to spare, then we promise to do something amazing with it!
Our plans for the future, while unbelievably detailed, still seem a bit distant and unreal - but soon enough, you'll start to see the site start to change. The museum, as an entity, will change, too - and we hope you'll come along with us for the ride. We want to open up how we work, and give people from all walks of life a chance to take part in the day-to-day life of the museum.
At the moment, though, it's business as usual.
My Tudor Plant walks went off without a hitch (and by hitch I mean rain and slugs). I was joined by students from England, France, Germany and Japan, as well as a couple of English/Welsh/Spanish families. I was a linguist in a former life and so dredged as much vocabulary as I could from the back of my mind, so that everyone could follow the tour. We tasted and smelled our way around the gardens, where 16th century varieties still grow. We usually discourage people from picking plants while they're here, to leave enough for our furry/feathered residents - but on this occasion, we were allowed to have a nibble here and there. Thankfully, Bernice and Paul from the gardens department have been kind enough to teach me which ones to eat, and which to avoid!
Yesterday, I met with students from Cardiff University yesterday, to talk about how we can use information and objects from excavations to engage the public. We looked at all sorts of things: from the pigments on the church walls to cauldrons and Tudor toilet-seats. This morning, I helped Sian and Ian take eighty-four (we counted) cardboard shields up to the Celtic Village for a painting workshop.
The reason I find myself in the office is because I am preparing a lecture for the Eisteddfod. I'm honoured to be speaking, and want to make sure I show off St Fagans in its best light! The topic of the talk will be murals from the Vale of Glamorgan - reading about all these little fragments has me keen to traipse around a graveyard with my camera pretty soon.
I hope you're enjoying this sunny spell - if you're thinking of coming to see us, then have a look here for our upcoming events. If you're coming by bus, remember that, as well as the number 32, you can now catch a band new shuttle bus, the number 5, which takes you from the steps of the National Museum in Cardiff, right to our front door.
PS: next time there'll be pictures, I promise!

I'm happy to announce a complete overhaul of our user comments system, which was previously known as TalkBack. This project has been in the works for several months, and we'd like to hear your feedback on this new system.
With this change, we've simplified the entire process for you to effortlessly submit comments on your favorite CNET articles, blogs, and features areas; but we've also made it easier for you to read comments made by your fellow CNET members.
My coworkers have put a lot of thought and effort into bringing you this new updated feature, so a big shout-out to them. We truly hope you enjoy this value-added experience as much as we enjoyed putting it together. Now that you've had a chance to check out the new user comments feature, collect your thoughts and tell us what you think. Whether you love it or hate it, you can be brutally honest with us. As key members of the CNET Community, it's your feedback that counts. This feature was built for your use, and we want to do our best to make it right for you. So, please speak up--we're all ears! Thank you all in advance for your feedback!
