Oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) was formed ~7500 years ago by hybridization between B. rapa and B. oleracea, followed by chromosome doubling, a process known as allopolyploidy. Together with more ancient polyploidizations, this conferred an aggregate 72× genome multiplication since the origin of angiosperms and high gene content. We examined the B. napus… (More)

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Plant nuclear genomes vary tremendously in DNA content, mostly due to differences in ancestral ploidy and variation in the degree of transposon amplification. These processes can increase genome size, but little is known about mechanisms of genome shrinkage and the degree to which these can attenuate or reverse genome expansion. This… (More)

In a recent staff editorial, "Tell Us What's Going On!," the Editorial Board criticized the Student Union (SU) for failing to effectively communicate with the student body. And, at first sight, SU candidates Keiran Carpen and Jonathan Aung seem committed to the idea of improving communication: ranging from hosting open Executive Council meetings to giving the Student Leadership Team (SLT) representative his/her own email, the reforms proposed by the two appear to be sweeping and comprehensive.
In addition, Carpen claims that his experience as SU Vice President has allowed him to build rapport with the administration—a rapport that would help enable the SU in its role as an advocate for student interests. But because the administration has demonstrated an interest in cultivating relationships with all student leaders, any ticket that is elected will be able to build rapport with the administration quickly if it chooses to do so.
The creation of the Spirit Council, a body that meets with the principal to discuss and enact ways to improve school spirit, by an ordinary student illustrates this principle. Thus, we shouldn't focus on Carpen's current relationship with the administration, but instead on whether or not we see him and Aung as leaders who can make change.
Carpen's poor track record as Vice President and Aung's lack of experience with the SU lead us to believe that they will unlikely follow up on their ambitious platform if elected. Poor communication is just one of the many shortcomings of our current SU—a weak and ineffective one that is partially headed by Carpen. And, ultimately, the Editorial Board cannot place its faith in a presidential candidate who was unable to lobby for student interests and follow through on his promises in the past.
Some of the ideas that Carpen and Aung have offered in their platform were ones that were a part of Carpen's platform last year—the problem is that these ideas weren't executed once Carpen came to power as Vice President.
Carpen and Aung want to place a school calendar on the first floor that will display weekly and/or monthly schedules and to create an official SU events calendar, but a plan proposed earlier this year to have an electronic school calendar on the first floor was derailed by technical difficulties. Instead of seeking out more motivated and qualified individuals to replace the ones who failed in completing the project, SU president Eddie Zilberbrand and SU vice president Keiran Carpen just opted to let the task stall. Furthermore, Carpen and Aung's promises to host more student events, along with the calendar proposal, was another idea that Zilberbrand and Carpen advocated for in their platform last year that we have yet to see be implemented.
Other ideas that Carpen and Aung support were ones the SU unsuccessfully proposed to the administration earlier this year. Carpen and Aung hope to create an official Survey Monkey account with the hopes of using it to poll the student body—but this very idea was proposed by Carpen to the administration and rejected. Carpen believes that, if elected, he and Aung will be able to use money from the SU budget to pay a fee and create the account. But this illustrates a telling incongruity: if the SU had the option of buying this account earlier, why didn't it do so? Why wait until next year?
We believe that the less innovative outreach methods that Carpen and Aung promise to use—including using social media, sending mass messages through the school email system, and creating more positions in the SU—and the more innovative ones—including giving the SLT Representative his/her own email account and hosting monthly Executive Council meeting—have potential to improve communication between the SU and the student body, but don't make for an original cornerstone of a campaign platform.
There is very little reason to believe that Carpen and Aung will change the status-quo and mold the Student Union into a more active body that will unfalteringly advocate for student interests. Their platform is incredibly generic and overarching, with very few specific policy changes they hope to push for, and the ones they did mention in our interview (free movie night, allotting more money to clubs and pubs, and keeping the SU office open to students) are not innovative. The Editorial Board is a strong proponent of changing the status-quo, so it has opted not to endorse the candidacy of Keiran Carpen and Jonathan Aung.

Winter Trend: Pastels
Pastels have been creeping into hair color trends for a several years. Most of you have noted the soft shades of pink and purples, reminiscent of Easter and macaroons, in the locks of the bolder fashionistas and school girls alike.
The quality is dreamlike. Even though it is playing on fashion forward trends, it creates a beautiful hand tinted photographic effect that feels nostalgic. However, regardless of how beautiful pastel hair might be in theory, it does not always translate to a wearable look for many women, whether it's due to comfort zones of personal style and practical reasons such as workplace dress code. Thankfully, winter 2015 fashion trends have a huge pastel component. Now the eye catching shades will be worn in pastel clothing!
How to Wear Pastels
Pastels can be incorporated into the whole outfit, utilizing layering and really having fun with playing up different tones and shades. On one hand, one could really forget themself within this trend and end up playing out a childhood fantasy of an updated Care Bears meets My Little Pony. But being a Minx, they also could embrace this trend in a slightly more grown up manner.
For a more understated look, choose one item of clothing from your ensemble to be pastel, as we have done here with the pale pink trousers. Instead of playing on layering different pinks, we chose to finish the outfit off with soft greys and neutrals. The grey of the blouse and the soft neutral of the Subtle Luxury sweater give the look a romantic feel. The pastel trousers are integral, but not overwhelming.
Winter Trends for Women
January is the perfect time to try out new silhouettes as the year transitions away from the holiday season and sets its sights on the Spring. If a wide trouser is too much volume, try a voluminous top. The draping of a Subtle Luxury sweater is unsurpassed. The soft cashmere is luxurious! It is truly a practical item to incorporate into 2015 closet for it will keep you on trend and warm.
Accessories your Pastel Clothing
If you are really in love with the pastel color palate you may be tempted to embrace it both in your wardrobe as well as in your jewelry collection. Here we have opted for a more toned down look, again going with pale, natural tones for our large beaded statement necklace.
The Play Between Pastels and Texture
One of the nicest qualities of an article of clothing that is a lighter hue is the way pale color helps the texture to pop. The lace of the blouse, the ribbing of the sweater, the pleats of the trousers, all of these details are as visible as they are because of this visual phenomenon. The same outfit in black would absorb light and come off as shapeless.
As you have began to play with bringing pastels into your winter 2015 fashion keep an eye on how you can play with texture!
Parts of this look are available online, the rest can be found in our downtown Asheville boutique!

Bishop Bruté seminarians are enrolled as students at Marian University and are an important part of the University community. Marian University is a Catholic University dedicated to excellence in teaching and learning in the Franciscan and liberal arts tradition. Marian University is situated in the heart of Indianapolis, IN, 10 minutes from downtown. With just under 3000 students, Marian University is ideal for students who seek personalized instruction as average class size is 17 and the student to faculty ratio is 12:1.
Seminarians ordinarily major in Catholic studies, a program of philosophy and theology courses that is designed to help students prepare for major seminary. The philosophy and theology faculty at Marian are a well-respected group of professors who work hard to meet the individual needs of University students. Seminarians also take a wide range of other courses required to receive a Marian University degree; however, it is possible for students to major in fields of study in addition to the Catholic studies major.
Most seminarians take part in intramural sports and other student organizations, encouraged to be actively involved in campus life. Students attend class with other Marian University students and eat their meals in the campus dining hall. While seminarians are expected to make their commitment to formation activities and academic coursework their top priorities, there is generally ample time to take part in the many exciting activities offered on campus.

This week's featured CD:
Life by Jim Milam
Available at The Garage – only $10!
A native west Texan, Jim Milam was born in Odessa Texas, grew up in Monahans, and now calls Fort Stockton home. His early influences were bands like Three Dog Night, Grassroots, and Bread.
Being a fan of diverse genres of music provided Jim a broad range of musical ideas and appreciation. Like most musicians, Jim began learning and honing his skills by playing cover songs, but what always seemed most important was writing his own songs.
Jim played in many bands growing up with his brothers and many good friends, bands like Revolver, 3D, Avatar, Sweet Briar and The Hit. But for the last 20 years, he has played with Bart Reid and George Treadaway in the Thumpin Puppies.
Jim's passion has always been music. His debut solo album "Life" is a dream he has worked on for many years, and showcases his poetic lyrics and unique voice. The album can't be labeled with one genre, spanning pop, rock and even easy listening.
"Music is the one thing that people from all walks of life have in common. It is the soother of souls to the fever of emotions. Let it be what it is for you – and enjoy the ride. Happiness is the key to living life to the fullest."

"IT may use technology to drive outcomes, but it takes people and a team to really do that," says healthAlliance CIO Claire Govier, with some members of her team. From left: Ashok Kalyanji, project manager; John La Hood, project manager; Claire Webb, project coordinator; and Diane Wood, project managerClaire Govier joined healthAlliance last year to lead a series of major technology upgrades, including the shift to the Windows 7 operating system for its 26,500 users.
Before the end of 2013, she became its chief information officer.
healthAllliance is the country's largest shared services organisation, providing IT and non-clinical services for the four Northern district health boards. With more than 18,500 screens, nine data centres and 2500 servers, it has been number one for the past three years in CIO100, the annual report on the top ICT using organisations in New Zealand.
This year, healthAlliance will grow further, and will start to deliver finance, procurement and supply chain services to the 16 other district health boards (DHBs) in New Zealand.
"We will still provide all the IT services for the Northern Region," explains Govier. "But the supply chain and finance and procurement services will progressively roll through New Zealand."
Govier says healthAlliance will operate like a national business process outsourcer (BPO) for these services.
"For my team, we're onboarding another customer," she says. "That's a new challenge for us in IT -- to actually think about a national network for healthAlliance staff rather than a regional network."
The organisation was born of a merger in 2011 of the IT and non-clinical services for the four Northern Region DHBs. These DHBs and Health Benefits, a crown agency, each own 20 per cent of what is now the most significant shared services organisation in New Zealand.
Prior to the merger, healthAlliance was providing shared services to Waitemata and Counties Manukau DHBs. Thus, says Govier, the organisation already has a strong body of knowledge, processes and efficiencies.
"It's really gained some traction -- and delivering savings and focus," she says. "There's really a strong case for growing that throughout New Zealand."
"The whole impetus behind healthAlliance and what Health Benefits are doing is to try and release some of the funding back into the core healthcare," she says. "This means more MRIs [magnetic resonance imaging], more clinical staff and faster throughputs in clinics."
DHBs have such a massive challenge juggling their budgets and their priorities so it's a very finely tuned instrument when it comes to making decisions on where to invest and how to invest, she says. "And every year there's more and more demand.
And as technology, either in the clinical or IT world improves, there are new ways of doing things. But you have to invest first to get benefits, so there's the usual dilemma of where to invest."
At the same time, she is cognisant of the growing budget for public health. In New Zealand, she says the latest figure is around $14.6 billion annually. "If we don't change anything, with the aging population and requirements, we are going to need $17 billion very soon," she says. "As a country with our tax take and our population size, we can't afford that.
"So working smarter, finding ways to solve problems, finding ways to deliver healthcare differently to reduce cost and add value, is such a growth area."
From corporate to public health
Govier has been involved in business transformation programs through more than two decades of working in IT, but these were in the enterprise space, mainly in finance and telecommunications.
"It's a very different frame of reference from corporate life," says Govier of her move to healthAlliance.
"The way decisions are made is different from an organisation that has a strong risk association like financial services, with a very different attitude and a very different process for risk and for profit and bottom line."
"To some extent we're still maturing with the model that we've got," says Govier, whose previous employers included Vodafone, Westpac, AMP, Ernst & Young and UK Post.
At the moment, healthAlliance IT has around 280 members, plus about a dozen contractors.
In the past 12 months, the four DHBs also have each appointed a "CIO-type" role. Govier says this group -- composed of Linda Wakeling in Auckland, Sarah Thirlwall in Manukau, Darren Manley in Northland and Stuart Bloomfield at Waitemata -- meet every week.
"Between us, we have to balance out the priorities of the resources [for] what gets done, when. It's a shared resource pool, essentially. So the more regional things we can drive, we do once and everybody gets it.
"The goal is to be driving that convergence as hard as we can to drive out the duplication, to standardise, take the cost out. So [instead of] doing everything four times, we do it once for four organisations."
Nationally, the equivalent CIOs for the other regions (Midland, Central and South) meet every quarter.
"When you're trying to drive convergence, it is a case of shaping the jigsaw pieces so that you can lock them together. The thing I think is so critical is making sure that you've got the picture on the front of the jigsaw box," says Govier.
"Everybody's got the same picture [so] the pieces actually fit. Otherwise, there's a risk you might shape one that does not quite fit.
"Creating that shared picture is part of a national piece. And for us, there's a regional level of that as well. How can we share more systems? And, of course, when each DHB has grown up individually and [is] self-sufficient, even if you've got the same technology solution, you've configured it differently and your process might be different because you've chosen a different f low on your script.
"So there's a real challenge because it's not a case of actually collapsing your systems. It's actually standardising your business processes so that you can collapse your systems and drive more efficiency. The jigsaw puzzle is not just the systems puzzle; it's also the process and the business operation puzzle."
She says the broader DHB and healthAlliance teams are also looking at how they will deliver healthcare outcomes in a "digital world", using mobility and collaboration tools.
One way they are doing this is through "cross-functional teams" where IT staff work with healthAlliance staff, including clinicians, on different projects. "They share the experience. They also share the accountability of delivering the outcomes, with healthAlliance driving the technical outcomes and senior DHB clinicians driving the clinical and business outcomes," says Govier.
As well, healthAlliance staff exchange ideas and queries with contacts across the world that they meet at events or online. "There are really healthy debates from both clinicians and technology people. There is some good crossover."
Moving industries
Govier says joining healthAlliance enabled her to learn about a new industry but says the challenges it faces are not entirely different from enterprises -- multiple users, lots of data, and legacy systems.
She came in when healthAlliance was looking for a person to drive some technology programs. The then chief executive resigned and Johan Vendrig, general manager information services, left and joined HSA Global as chief operations officer. The new chief executive, Mike Schubert, combined her original role of IT director with that of the CIO.
"healthAlliance is an organisation that gets under your skin. You have to care about what happens in healthcare with the complexity [of its systems]," she says. She says part of the impetus for joining the organisation was her family's experience with the public healthcare system. Her mother has had a number of surgical procedures in Wellington, and her sister was treated for breast cancer two years ago.
"It does change a family when you go through something like that together, and you really do have an appreciation of the people who work in those services," she says.
Govier was CIO of Vodafone when her sister was undergoing treatment for breast cancer. When the opportunity to work at healthAlliance came up, she recalled her family's personal experience with public healthcare. "I would not have looked at it much more seriously than I would have if we hadn't had that experience."
"IT is a people game," she states. "It may use technology to drive outcomes, but it takes people and a team to really do that," she says. "It is 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year."
Healthcare is the same. "There is having the skills and the tools to do a job. The other is having the willingness and commitment to do the job," she says.
There are "cultural" and "leadership" pieces in the organisation that are needed if you want to drive change.
"A lot of my roles over the years are focused on lifting performance and managing change and driving a different way of doing things. That all has to be achieved through people."
At healthAlliance, this involves getting a team that is fully committed and works at a very high work rate and then asking them to do more as they add services and support national growth.
"The ability to focus people and to get them working as a team to drive those outcomes" is important.
"In this kind of organisation where we have to respond to so much in real time, you can't run a strict command of control. You have to trust the people in their job, doing their job, and give them the tools to help them do their job."
She has her sights set on how to manage this challenge. "In any complex environment you find the things that you can make a difference on and you focus and you drive it. Don't try and do everything at once. That's the real temptation when there's so many opportunities.
"Bite off some stuff that you can really make a difference on and push through on that. Now my focus is on getting my team really well-oiled and well-focused and having clarity on their accountabilities and outcomes. This isn't a one man game.
"If I can get 280 people really focused on one or two outcomes each, that drives a hell of a momentum working with their DHB colleagues," she says. "Whereas if I've got 280 people all working on completely different priorities, then you dissipate the focus." Photos by Jason Creaghan

This is a thread where we share tips for coping in social situations, social conventions and mores, the proper way to act when around other people, etc. A lot of us are autistic or have asperger's syndrome to some degree (including me) and haven't been outside for so long that their social skills have atrophied. I think if we share tips then it will make it easier to cope when we are forced into society, such as in family meetings or when we must find a job to survive. A lot of social anxiety is caused by being overwhelmed in social situations so if we learn how to react I think it will not be as stressful a situation. It doesn't matter how trivial or obvious the suggestion might be, i'm interested to hear and I am sure there would be at least a few brohnos who would benefit from reading about it.
For example, in a casual conversation if someone asks you a question like 'How are you?', its not like in school where you answer the question correctly and precisely. If you browse /so/ you're probably the type to feel like crap all the time, but its not convention to reply with 'I feel crap', or if you feel fine, with 'fine'. The point of the question is more to do with starting a conversation than to find out the state of your being. If you want the conversation to end quickly then just saying 'crap' would probably work, but it'd be more conventional to say you're going great, talk about something interesting thats happened recently, then finish off with something that gives an opening for the other person to continue, like an interesting tangent to the current subject or an open ended question.
it depends, are you okay with hurting the person you are interacting with or not?
if you are ok with it, these situations are very easy to handle and it comes with the nice side effect that people eventually stop trying to talk to you in the first place.
Its easy to ignore people or give them the cold shoulder but its not exactly going to help you to, for example, get a job.
"How are you?"
"Thanks, but no."
*Oh shit*
Just respond with "Fine" is enough to end the conversation. After that, they'll talk about themselves or just bring something else up, if they want to talk to you, anyway.
It might even be a lie at times, but it's the best lie if you want to avoid dragging on the conversation. The only time when this will fail is if the other person wants and/or has to talk to you.
Interesting stories, even ones that don't involve you, are perfect. They pass as conversation and are one-sided. Usually the other party will laugh and say something generic, or they will launch into their own story. Generic responses are perfectly acceptable in this scenario, just have a variety of them. Pretend to be engaged. Jokes are perfect, just have a small arsenal prepared. If you tell a couple at the right time, you should be left alone for the most part. Nods go a long way as well.
This is just my experience, so apply it with discretion.
This is what I did. I always responded with "fine". Nod, give short answers and eventually they'll leave you alone. If you say you feel like crap they might want to know why you feel that way. Happy people are uninteresting.Post edited on 21st Dec 2011, 8:02pm
It's hard to tell stories when there's no passion in your voice.
Gotta hype yourself up one way or another, pretend or not. That is the burden of socializing: you aren't allowed to be unhappy. You always have to find the company of others and the event that brought everyone together to be enjoyable. People get mad at you for being "a downer", and they'll pester you until you convert.
I know what you mean.
I used to think 'Why should I pretend to be happy and smile and be pleasant all the time? It all seems so fake to me'. Then I saw it from the outside. I saw a guy who did what I did, and I saw how awkward and unpleasant it was to be around him and how much he stuck out.
Now I at least put up a few feeble attempts to be more pleasant. Its an act, but it becoming less forced and more natural over time. The world and people might suck, but being a downer around other people isn't going to help. Even if I don't like someone, I will still try to be nice to them because I am a disgusting human too.
You're hurting the person who's asking by doing that.
If they always ask and pressure you for it, they're obviously interested in your well being.
Being ignored like that is the worst feeling in the world.
Probably not, because most people just ask that question as a reflex and don't expect anything more than "fine" for an answer.
If they're asking because they think something's wrong, however, it depends on the situation. If the person asking is just a stranger who thinks you're "weird", then ignore the shit out of them, by all means. I don't care about hurting the feelings of such a person. If it's someone who you think genuinely cares, however, that's different.
I don't know exactly what I do in conversation. I can't bring myself to pretend or be something that I'm not. It's probably really awkward to be around me and talk to me. I do my best so I guess I'm terrible at this. People think I'm retarded or something. They talk to me like I'm a child or stupid.
Yep, that's me too. When I'd talk to teachers when I was in school they would have a tone of voice that reminded me of an adult talking to a retard.
I am afraid to go out and interact with people because I can never be sure if I am doing something wrong. Many times I've said something inappropriate, only to find out they were wrong several years later. I pity myself for lacking the second nature that normal people have with picking up on these subtleties. It comes so easily to others, yet for me its so hard. I can never go out and talk to other people without the certainty that I appear normal which others take for granted.
I don't know if it belongs in this thread but I have a dilemma I've been stressing over for the past few weeks. In short, I am getting a job to continue living a stable life-- I have really no problem with talking to people, in fact, I'm actually capable of striking conversations and holding them. The only problem is that I don't like it. If I have to do it, I will, but if given the choice, I won't. I realize that once I start working, I'll be doing this regardless of the situation, because I just HAVE to. I'll have to talk about sports and the team and what I think (because that's the only job I can find that accepted me, an athletic clothing store), and I'll have to use my time to research all of this shit so I don't end up looking like a fool. My problem is, even though I absolutely hate talking to people (because I just don't care what they have to say, and I very much know that they could care less either), will I still be the same person? My biggest fear is that continued enforcing of casual conversation will lead me into become the kind of people I hate. It's not like I can continue on with the job only relying on small chit-chat to get me through, I'll need to "pretend" to be motivated and that I actually care, right? I fear that one day, I'll lose sight of my beloved "otaku"(and I quote because that's the only word I can think of to describe my relaxed, hobby-filled life) lifestyle.
From my own experience, I've found that I've been able to both pretend I have a very shallow interest in sports. I live in the South, where college football is king. So I pretend to care about what the University of whatever the hell's record is like or who has what bowl game or whatever and extract myself from the conversation after a few minutes. Then again, I've never worked in a sporting goods store, so I don't know what that might be like.
It's a stupid thing that you and I and most everyone here has to keep our interests under wraps if we ever go out into "respectable society". If it makes any difference, I play the most embarrassing music possible in my car when I'm not listening to the news on NPR, and I'm fairly sure that we can both cope in the outside world and hold our interests at the same time.
You don't have to know anything about sports. It is not like you're there because you always aspired to sell this merchandise. It is just a shitty job, you're there for one reason, and all you should ever care about is making it through the day. This is how every person who works at these sorts of places long term feels. If people don't get that, fuck them, they are as clueless as you are.
If you start out talking about sports and whatnot people will come to get the wrong idea about you and will only engage you more. Be respectful, do your work properly, and avoid making unnecessary smalltalk about sports as you will bungle it and it will only create more anxiety for yourself.
I don't think he suffers anxiety, from reading his post. It's just a fear of becoming normal.
I don't have social anxiety either, actually, but I don't think I could be a normal even if I wanted to.
I was using anxiety loosely, not to mean social anxiety. Anyway, it takes more than just mastering smalltalk to become a "normal", you'll perhaps learn to function better when it comes to business, but it won't help you at all with more intimate interaction. You can remain just as isolated as you were before if you choose.
I won't put myself in that situation unless I -am- happy, so hat wouldn't apply to me.
I just say 'bad' if I feel bad, 'decent' if decent, etc etc.
I think I know how you feel. I returned to high school (I am judging for a debate league tournament - and am a former debater).
All the people seemed to treat me as if i am a teenager and thought I was a student there (I am 21 and a judge for the tournament/havent been in HS for ~3-4 years). Well the staff there. Granted I did dress the part, as I am not dressing formally to judge a fucking debate tournament - I was a debater and remember judges didnt dress formally all the time). I dressed 'regularly' I guess...a bit bummy maybe?
>>My biggest fear is that continued enforcing of casual conversation will lead me into become the kind of people I hate.
I think ive been turned to 'Ford Drivergotry' now I think.
Live in Chicago, and im pretty blatant with the 'I dont pay attention to sports or care about it' much and have not received much in terms of problems.

Thanks for your guys' input to my dilemma. What's really worrying me is that I'm being overwhelmed with all of these normal things coming at me from all direction. I need to start taking instructions so that I can learn how to drive, pressures the hell out me already. I need to continue working (my first day was horrible. I was just the quiet guy and I can tell my co-workers don't like me). And tomorrow is my first day of the new semester in college. I'm this close to breaking down and giving up everything. I really feel like I'm going to become a normal guy. I don't want to lose sight of my lifestyle, and most importantly, the one I love: my waifu. I feel like I won't have enough time to fight back, it's as if I'm slowly being consumed into the social life I've hated for a long time-- just because I have to. Long story short, how do I survive this? It's a paradox. To continue living my isolated happy life, I have to feign and put a persona (that I feel is slowly taking over) when I work and go to classes. I'm really stressing over this.
Wow, wow, wow! Calm down! You're going crazy. First, you should only think being the quiet guy is bad if you want to be on the opposite end of the spectrum. You can keep to yourself and chat with others when you want. You don't have to either be a lone wolf or Mr. Good-Time. Second, don't give up; you have to brave through this to come out stronger. Just be open to conversation, and you don't have to talk about everything. You can just listen. As for being taught how to drive, relax and realize you're being INSTRUCTED. He isn't putting a blindfold over you and telling you to drive. You can listen and understand, right? Do that and don't overthink it. And know that nothing can overtake you unless you allow it. Self is the lord of self. You shouldn't have to worry about falling out of love with your waifu. Love is powerful and can easily survive a mere lifestyle change. You have to be volatile, man! Just go with it. Goodness gracious, who you are is less about your outward actions and more about (get ready for a cliché) what's inside. Keep your values and ideas but not so rigidly you can't even function properly. You can dabble in the normal lifestyle without having to get drunk and fuck sluts.
Take it easy. Your idea about being normal or an otaku is a false dichotomy and the first day at a new job is hard for everyone, but the fact that youre working is a positive thing.
>I really feel like I'm going to become a normal guy
I hate to say it but maybe youre just growing up. Ever wonder why you never see otaku over 30 years old?
a lot of good points here.
>Ever wonder why you never see otaku over 30 years old?
I have. In fact a few people here are wizards I think
>Ever wonder why you never see otaku over 30 years old?
>Ever wonder why you never see otaku over 30 years old?
No, because there are many available methods for committing suicide.
These small changes to your lifestyle, they'll seem like just another part of your life after awhile. Not particularly fun, but not a big hassle either. Kind of mechanical.
Whenever I went to an orthodontist and had to get the latest teeth-fixing-contraption I used to get really pissed off at being told "You'll get used to it" every Haruhidamn time. But it was true. The same can be said of most challenges in life. What starts looking like a massive problem is eventually reduced to a slight nuisance at most.
What I'm trying to say is just keep at it for a little longer, it won't seem as bad.
Thanks again for your input. After reading these, I feel a bit more confident that I may be able to survive whilst keeping my ideals. As for growing up, I wish I can "grow up" and learn how to deal being an adult while persevering to keep my lifestyle the way it is.
Growing up only means having to deal with and do more while keeping a smile on your face.
"And I say, hey, hey, hey it's just an ordinary day and it's all your state of mind! At the end of the day, you just gotta say it's alright. 'Cause it's alright, it's alright. It's alright! [Harmonica solo]"
Now if only I could remember the name of that song...
I'll never "grow up", I'll stay the same now and forever. At least I can be content with the fact that while everyone is changing many years from now I'll still be the same person you always knew doing the same things I always did. I flat out reject most change since it's almost always for the worst.
>the name of that song
Dunno but how about this other one?
Other one what?
Song... I mean: about not wanting to grow up (rather staying in one's room).
You said "this other one", and I don't know what "this" is supposed to be pointing to. I'm sorry. Are you asking if I know of any songs about not wanting to grow up?
>I'll never "grow up", I'll stay the same now and forever
I doubt it. Everyone changes eventually.
I've been trying to survive these few weeks. I really can't do it. It's gotten to the point where I can barely breathe and typing like this is a luxury because I usually fall dead on the floor right when I get home from work. In all honesty, I seriously can't breathe regularly, this may be a health problem but I have to hurt myself (like poking really hard with a pen) just so I can catch some air. I think I'm going to drop out of this semester because I can't even begin to pay attention to any of my classes due to lack of sleep. I literally have classes from 9-4, work till 5-1AM, and driving lessons from 6-8. This is a good idea, right? Dropping the semester?
have you seen a doctor about it?
If that is actually your schedule or close to it, yes, what the fuck were you thinking.
From experience, just do your job.
You sign up to work and make money, not to talk with some faggot about playing with balls.
If a coworker tries to talk about something like sports, say "I don't watch sports, sorry".
Same with any other topic or invitations.
DO NOT drink the chamomile tea
Hm, what, why? It's good when you need to calm down or sleep.
seconded, WTF. Chamomile Tea is cool.
I drink Eucalyptus tea for that, though perhaps that aslo tied to nostalgia for me since thats the tea my grandfather would make for me when I was sick, he would make it with the leaves from the Eucalyptus tree growing in his backyard,
i do enjoy a nice cup of chamomile tea though.
I guess he just doesn't like the kind of relaxed feeling it gives? Everyone likes and dislikes different things. I last week made a 6 bag brew (yeah I'm crazy like that, don't question me) of the stuff and felt really relaxed and happy.

Kroner's football tour: M-S
Prep sports coordinator Fred Kroner is checking up on area teams leading into Opening Night.
MAHOMET — The high school football team has been a playoff regular for more than a decade. Eleven consecutive Mahomet-Seymour squads have qualified for the postseason.
This year, the Bulldogs hope to take the next step. Four M-S teams in a row and eight of the last 11 have exited the IHSA second season after the first round.
Coach Keith Pogue's current team will build around a group of 25 lettermen, a total which includes nine starters back on defense and seven on offense.
Several of the athletes are ones who are prominent in multiple sports. Quarterback Joe Kenney missed 1,000 passing yards last year as a sophomore by 11. In the spring, he was on the All-Area baseball first team, as was Cully Day, a senior receiver who hauled in 20 passes last fall. Junior lineman Jordan Geese was a regional wrestling champion last winter at 285 pounds. Ian Belyea and Scottie Rotramel are other wrestlers who placed among the top four in their weight classes at regionals.
Basketball player Grant Farchmin was an All-Corn Belt first-team linebacker a year ago and is regarded by some league coaches as the top returning defensive player. The Bulldogs' linebacking corps features a strong group. Other returnees who earned postseason recognition from the Corn Belt last year as underclassmen are Thomas Bane and Daniel Roberson, who also played basketball. Senior Chandler Stranc is a highly regarded defensive lineman.
"Team depth is our biggest concern," Pogue said. "Injuries could devastate us in a hurry."
M-S opens its season Aug. 30 with a non-conference game at Mount Zion.

Daily Star And Daily Mail See A Plague Of Egyptians Heading To The UK
THANKS to Hosni Mubrarak, Egyptians are fighting to get on planes out of Cairo and flock to the UK.
The Mail says the troubles in Egypt "' will fuel illegal wave UK migration' warns Nato "
Two days on and the Daily Star's Paul Robbins agrees.
THOUSANDS of illegal immigrants will flee riot-torn Egypt and flood to Britain, the leader of Nato has warned.
Many refugees are desperate to escape and head here to milk the benefits system.
Nato Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen, 58, said the riots will fuel an "illegal migration wave" across the EU. And the majority will head straight to Britain…
But what did Mr Rasmussen actually say? Well, his words are on the web.

Gun, you ARE beautiful, in your Art, in Your Spirit and in your Soul. :-)
Thank you so much Hartmut! Could be an image of me just now ( if we remove that word beautiful!)
This is a very touching, exquisit, most sensitive, almost heartbreaking image of a beautiful woman, who is perhaps saddened by the inevitable passing of time and of our lives.
Thank you for the feature in Beauty, James!
Thank you Demeter!
I am speechless ....
Thank you so much Rosa, your words make me happy!
If it would not be for the fact that it is so beautiful....I would add the "sinister" description to what I receive in my soul. But...such a delicate and intense mood, so dramatic and calming...resists the ide of sinister image."I find it fascinating, Rosa
Thank you Laurie!

A near and dear person left today. Makes me go inside, pondering the great mystery
I live in Sweden in a little village near Gothenburg. When I was 40 I left my job as a child psychologist and teacher, and went to art school where I learned graphic art (etchings and such) for four years. Besides that I have worked much with textile collages and watercolor collages. After buying my first computer twenty years ago, I more and more concentrated on digital art. Now the computer takes all my time . I have no education in computer art. I am self-taught. I work in PaintShopPro and sometimes Photoshop. I work mostly from photos, my own and others. Textures are very important for me. I think my love for working with textiles has given birth to that love. With my images I try to evoke an emotional response in the viewer. I try to...

I'm no technocrat. I don't stand to claim that I understand the nitty-gritty behind the decision to relinquish American control of ICANN. I can claim that this may be a bold move on the part of the US Commerce Department & the Obama Administration. How so? The White House may be building a diplomatic framework that encourages Net Freedoms. While protecting intellectual property rights and freedoms of expression/speech/assembly; The US can only approach the Global community from a "neutral" standpoint.
ICANN controls how the internet is addressed. This may not seem huge, but already the internet stands on the crux of something huge. The internet is about to become decentralized and not Anglo-Centric. Of this, the kernal must be created to ensure that any government, including the United States can control the free flow of information any more. The NSA revelations due to Edward Snowden was damning to the US in the sense that it showed how pervasive governments can potentially become through the technological marvels of today. There are bigger lobby's out there with larger consequences for a "free" Internet within the United States. Issues such as monopolistic consequences for a Comcast-Time Warner Merger or the Net Neutrality lobby of AT&T & Verizon shed a spotlight on the White House, the Bureaucracy, and Congress.
The White House has told the US Department of Commerce to signal its relinquishing of control over ICANN for internal and diplomatic reasoning. Diplomatically speaking, we have strong allies that are beginning to utilize internet censorship to establish autocratic regimes; Turkey & China come to mind. Internally, The White House may have signaled how powerless the government is to the monetary pressures of big business. With the bellwether Citizens United case; Money is now Speech. Corporations are now Persons. Its hard to believe when typed out but this is the legalisms of the 21st century thanks to the Neo-Conservative victories of Reagan & Bush I, II. The pressures of the worst rated Congress in history will break the levy's controlling the Internet Landscape. Net Neutrality had lost a significant Appeals battle and the previous issues of cable mergers / phone companies are ratcheting up.
The White House had to relinquish Governmental control of some of the governing bodies to the International Community; such as the G7 or United Nations.
The NSA has not relinquished its abilities upon the Internet. The United States recognizes a Cyber Playing Field that is in play with the likes of Russia and China 24/7. By giving up ICANN the US may have given itself more Carte Blanche to continue its activities with less liability. Liability being that the Government of the United States may also be fighting against internal forces that are profiteering on the Internet. The US will inevitably have to go after these forces or be completely disabled, with an AOL-Compuserve model of 1995 internet for the 21st Century. Control in the forces of Corporate Powers, through the weak Congress may be far less advantageous than setting up a Neutral Playing Field through stable, sound, & allied governance of ICANN. If anything this move shows how vulnerable the United States has become to its own Corporate Masters. Masters that legally may be bound to investors not of the United States …
In short, this was a PR stunt. In short, this was a bold move to keep the internet free as we know it!
If you are an internet activist and a political activist; please do all you can to plant the mental virus of Freedom. The 21st Century deserves the Natural Law understood by the 18th Century Founding Fathers.

Edie Morton's loft is an artist's studio and sanctuary. It was recently renovated to include a second level which could have been designed by hobbits. Upon entering, the hallway has been converted into an Italian portico with a textured tuscan wall treatment and bead-board ceiling. The bedroom transformed into into a much cozier space becoming a cocoon beneath the sea with dreamy twilight blue walls. The new level functions as an office and chill station filled with art, books, whimsical and organic artifacts. The original duct work was removed, recycled and replaced with a custom-designed duct system now concealed as a bench and shelf. The renovation foundation was constructed by Simon Davis with custom details designed and constructed by Jason Vise. Edie will be exhibiting encaustic paintings, including her latest series of Illuminated Encaustics and Floating Gardens mobiles.

Romans 6:3-11
"In this epistle lesson Paul gives Christians instruction concerning the Christian life on earth, and connects with it the hope of the future and eternal life, in view of which they have been baptized and become Christians. He makes of our earthly life a death--a grave--with the understanding, however, that henceforth the risen man and the newness of life should be found in us."
Sermons of Martin Luther, 8 vols., ed., John Lenker, Grand Rapids: Baker Book House, 1983, VIII, p. 141. Rom. 6:3-11.
"He [Paul] says: It is not the intention of the Gospel to teach sin or to allow it; it teaches the very opposite--how we may escape from sin and from he awful wrath of God which it incurs. Escape is not effected by any doings of our own, but by the fact that God, out of pure grace, forgives us our sins for His
Son's sake; for God finds in us nothing but sin and condemnation."
Sermons of Martin Luther, VIII, p. 142. Rom. 6:3-11.
"Paul does not teach that grace is acquired through sin, nor that sin brings grace; he says quite the opposite--that 'the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men,' Romans 1:18. But because the sins of men which are taken away are so grievous and numerous, the grace which drowns and destroys them must be mighty and abundant also. Where there is a great thirst, a great draft is needed to quench it. Where there is a mighty conflagration, powerful streams of water are necessary to extinguish it...But these facts do not give us authority to say:...Let us injure ourselves and make ourselves ill that medicine may do us more good. Still less does it follow that we may heap us and multiply sins for the purpose of receiving more abundance grace."
Sermons of Martin Luther, 8 vols.,VIII, p. 142f. Romans 6:3-11; Romans 1:18
"On the other hand, we are outwardly oppressed with the cross and sufferings, and with the persecution and torments of the world and the devil, as with the weight of heavy stone upon us, subduing our old sinful nature and checking us against antagonizing the Spirit and committing other sins."
Sermons of Martin Luther, VIII, p. 145. Romans 6:6.
"But the fact is, all Christian doctrines and works, all Christian living, is briefly, clearly and completely comprehended in these two principles, faith and love. They place man as a medium between God and his neighbor, to receive from above and distribute below. thus the Christian becomes a vessel, or rather a channel, through which the fountain of divine blessings continuously flows to other individuals."
Sermons of Martin Luther, VIII, p. 145. Rom. 6:3-11.
"But if you possess faith, your heart cannot do otherwise than laugh for joy in God, and grow free, confident and courageous. For how can the heart remain sorrowful and dejected when it entertains no doubt of God's kindness to it, and of his attitude as a good friend with whom it may unreservedly and freely enjoy all things? Such joy and pleasure must follow faith; if they are not ours, certainly something is wrong with our faith."
Sermons of Martin Luther, VI, p. 146. Titus 3:4-8
"Your first desire will be that all men may obtain the same knowledge of divine grace. Hence your love will not be restrained from serving all to the fullest extent, preaching and proclaiming the divine truth wherever possible, and rejection all doctrine and life not in harmony with this teaching. But take
note, the devil and the world, unwilling that their devices be rejected, cannot endure the knowledge of what you do. They will oppose you with everything great, learned, wealthy and powerful, and represent you as a heretic and insane."
Sermons of Martin Luther, VI, p. 147. Titus 3:4-8
"Since the Word of God is this weapon [sword], it behooves us to make use of it at all times and to this end become acquainted with it both by means of public preaching and by earnest Bible study at home. Cursory reading must be supplemented by careful memorizing of proof-texts and strong passages. Only in this way shall we be able to make the proper use of the Word of God as a true weapon of offense at all times."
Paul E. Kretzmann, Popular Commentary of the New Testament, 2 vols., St. Louis: CPH, II, p. 292. Ephesians 6:17.
"The reference [the Votum] is simply to a disposition to trust and love God sincerely, and a willingness of heart and mind to serve God and man to the utmost. The devil seeks to prevent this state by terror, by revealing death and by every sort of misfortune; and by setting up human devices to induce the heart to seek comfort and help in its own counsels and in man. Thus led astray, the heart falls from trust in God to a dependence upon itself."
Sermons of Martin Luther, VI, p. 111. Philippians 4:7.
"Take heed, then, to embrace the message of these words presenting the love and kindness of God to all men. Daily exercise your faith therein, entertaining no doubt of God's love and kindness toward you, and you shall realize His blessings. Then you may with perfect confidence ask what you will, what your heart desires, and whatever is necessary for the good of yourself and your fellow-men. But if you do not so believe, it were far better you had never heard the message. For by unbelief you make false these precious, comforting, gracious words. You conduct yourself as if you regarded them untrue, which attitude is extreme dishonor to God; no more enormous sin could be committed."
Sermons of Martin Luther, VI, p. 146. Titus 3:4-8.
"Good works are to be performed without any thought of merit, simply for the benefit of one's neighbor and for the honor of God; until the body, too, shall be released from sin, death and hell."
Sermons of Martin Luther, VI, p. 151. Titus 3:4-8
"This is the situation with him: the greater his external restraint from evil, the greater his inward hatred of him who restrains. His character is in the scales; when one side goes up, the other goes down. While outward sin decreases, inward sin increases. We know from experience that those youths most strictly reared are, when given liberty, more wicked than young men less rigidly brought up. So impossible it is to improve human nature with commandments and punishments; something else is necessary."
Sermons of Martin Luther, VI, p. 268. Gal. 3:23-29
"Why do so many people in our country fall in with the preachers of fanatical sects? Because these sects spread the glamor of great sanctity about themselves. Alas! man regards the works of God as trifling, but esteems the works of men highly. That is nothing but one of the sad results of man's fall
into sin."
C. F. W. Walther, The Proper Distinction between Law and Gospel, St. Louis: CPH, 1928, p. 372.

Mr. Gustavson checks in from Shanghai/EFZ, and Andrew Harrison provides a vlog entry on "play":
Thursday and Friday, we spent most of our time at the school with visits to Lily's English class, which was preparing a debate about school uniforms; to Garry's Computer Science class for ninth graders, where they used Anime Studio Pro to learn how to create an animated film, and to the Chinese class of Jingjing, who visited us at Peddie last spring, as she worked her students through various aspects of the Chinese language college entrance exams that students will be taking next week. The system has changed this year so that students not only have to take a national level college entrance examination but also separate exams for the universities they wish to attend. In consequence, the pressure on them has increased significantly. All of these classes were different in substantial ways, but we continue to be impressed by the attentiveness of the students, as well as their good humor and high level of comfort working with each other. The Computer Science class and the Chinese class were basically set up as workshops, so much of the work was individual or in small groups, but in Lydia's debate class, the students brainstormed and shared their ideas. They generally stood at their seats and presented their arguments, but occasionally they went to the front of the room to put their ideas on the board or to present extemporaneous arguments. They were lively, and the level of their English was quite good. Students continue to be very friendly and full of questions when we speak with them.
Shanghai 1 Play from Andrew Harrison on Vimeo.
Thursday evening, we saw the second half of a basketball game between EFZ and students from another school. There were no coaches, no other adults, and only one fairly non-intrusive student referee, which produced quite an interesting spectacle. Students lined the court and occasionally broke into encouraging chants. In general, the players here compete very hard but do not shoot particularly well. However, they have pretty good handles and like to get to the rim against a defense that doesn't want them to get there. Not surprisingly, in this game, almost every possession left bodies strewn on the asphalt court, but the players kept their cool. We all continue to enjoy seeing how much pleasure the students take from just playing.
Friday afternoon, we headed to the Pearl Tower with Amy and went up to the observation deck at 800', which gave us a wonderful view of Shanghai, especially of the Huangpu River and the Bund across the river. Afterwards we went to Zhongshan Park, near Amy's home, for dinner. On weekends, the school is mostly shut down, so we spent today visiting the city, this time with Zoe. We spent hours walking around the Bund, especially on the esplanade which looks across the Huangpu to the Pearl Tower, the Shanghai World Financial Center, and a multitude of other skyscrapers. Thus, we looked out from old Shanghai, with its variety of colonial structures, toward new Shanghai. The view in both directions at this majestic bend in the river is spectacular. Zoe took us to a wonderful restaurant where she ordered a "typical" Chinese meal, beginning with a soy-based dish somewhat like tofu, but with a much more interesting texture and subtle flavors, and lotus root, then moving to a fish and crab soup where the meat almost melted off the fish as the meal progressed, followed by a spicy beef dish and then roast duck with roasted rice cakes. I hope that sounds good. In fact, it was a great, memorable meal. We then wandered through parts of the old city, including a visit to the Temple of the City God, where, by chance, we saw a special ceremony that honored one of the many figures of the temple. Afterwards, we went to Xin Tiandi, a vibrant and beautiful area on the edge of the old French Concession. There Zoe arranged another remarkable meal for us. Since we had eaten so much for lunch, we had only a "snack" of three kinds of dumpling and then some rice-based sweets. Did I mention we had a great day?
Tomorrow, we will be visiting some museums and going to a show and then Monday back to school …

Olofinjana joined the Tigers from Stoke City in 2009 and made 19 Premier League appearances during his debut campaign at the club.
However, he spent last season on loan at Cardiff City and scored six goals in 42 games for the Championship play-off semi-finalists.
The 31-year-old had been keen on a permanent move to Cardiff, but is now back at Hull ahead of the 2011/12 campaign.
He has been the subject of interest from other clubs, but any move is currently on hold following a recent minor operation on his knee.
"There's been some interest in Seyi but he's injured at the minute so it could be something that gets done later," the Tigers' head of football operations Adam Pearson told the Hull Daily Mail.
"We're waiting to get him back into training as soon as possible before anything happens on that."
