Wow, I'm glad I decided to read this manga after viewing this thread. I didn't see those plans coming, quite inventive! Not the best art, but a very good plot.
What is uttered from the heart alone, will win the hearts of others to your own.
The art creeped me out at firstXD, but I must be seriously dumb cause i barley understand some of thisXD Which I think makes it pretty interesting and "smart"
just read chapt 27, that could teach a thing or two about economics there! This is an awesome manga, i love the turn-arounds. Poor guy failed in his plan to sell his tickets for cheaper, made me laugh but also made me feel bad for him.
I wonder if they will all start playing nice now thanks to Nao's lecture of what the game actually is (in her perspective).
Do not double-post, please. - damnz

What is uttered from the heart alone, will win the hearts of others to your own.
If you liked the first round of liar game you may like this manga, also based on swindling.
is this manga finished? it doesnt seem finished and it said "to be continued" but its been 3 weeks or what? and on wikipedia it says the series was started 2005 and already has spawned a drama series.
edit: and it also says "2005-ongoing" in the box to the right on wiki. but if the first chapter was released 3 years ago, then what has the author been doing this while and why was it scanlated so late?
The invisible and the non-existent look very much alike.
heres a link to at least 5 of the volumes
volume five of which starts at chapter 39 and goes to 49 which has a to be continued after it so.... blame NULL?

Jets Season In Review: Coach Noel
Travis Hrubeniuk
May 02 2013 03:52PM
So close, yet so so far away. Finishing with a record of 24-21-3, the 2013 Winnipeg Jets ended the season with 51 points - a mere four short of the New York Islanders and that highly coveted playoff spot. Unfortunately those four points have changed the tone of Jets fans everywhere from glee and hope to reflection and questioning, and thus here I am writing a review on the season rather than a preview of the newly-branded Winnipeg Jets first playoff matchup.
So buckle up folks. Throughout this week I'm going to work my way through the forwards, defensemen, goalies, and finish with a summary and my opinions on this season. Today, I go over the Winnipeg Jets Coach Claude Noel.
(Big thanks to behindthenet, nhl.com, stats.hockeyanalysis.com, capgeek, and leftwinglock.com for all the upcoming numbers)
Coach Claude Noel
Paired with every team that doesn't make the playoffs comes a question. Does the Head Coach deserve to retain his position for the next year? Missing the playoffs is generally perceived as a failed season, and much needs to be taken into consideration. Here I will break down a couple reasons to condemn and a couple reasons to forgive Claude Noel for the past season,. I'll wrap up by voicing my opinion as to whether or not he should keep his job.
Ship Him Out?
The Horrible Special Teams
First let me say yes, I understand that Coach Noel leaves plenty of the special team duties to his assistant coaches. He does, though, ultimately have the final say on who those coaches are and what goes onto the ice. Sadly for Jets fans, what has gone out has been a pretty pitiful product.
The Jets finished 24th this season on the penalty kill (for the second season in a row), working at a 79.7% success rate. The Jets were able to move from 24th to 2nd overall in times shorthanded, but all of that is a waste if they cannot kill anything off. Yes, things did improve as the season progressed, but it was much too little, much too late as the Jets averaged 0.58 power play goals against per game. They need to play all year as they did near the end of the season if they want to avoid playing 'catch-up' and make the playoffs. Look at the Toronto Maple Leafs for example. With a change of coach last year, the penalty kill moved from a constant streak of 28th-30th place finishes to second overall, and they made the playoffs for the first time in 9 years. Admittedly it is hard to have a successful penalty kill without consistent goaltending, so a lot of the blame does fall of Ondrej Pavelec's shoulders. If the penalty kill is ever going to get better he (or whoever is in net) needs to improve.
The Jets power play was a complete and total embarrassment this year. Clicking at a pitiful 13.8%, it was dead last in the league, and was more of a detriment to the team than a benefit. I can't recall the number of times I found myself disappointed that the Jets were going to the power play, as it often slowed the pace and killed the momentum, creating a turning point in the wrong direction. Teams such as the Boston Bruins, who are big, physical, and constantly one of the best teams in goals against totals can afford to have lack luster power plays. Teams like the Jets (who finished 25th in goals against) need to take advantage of every opportunity they get to score if they want to be successful.
Line Up Decisions
There were plenty of lineup decisions this year that left me scratching my head. As was mentioned many times throughout the year and in my review of the forwards earlier this week, Alex Burmistrov and Kyle Wellwood (shout out to Arctic Ice Hockey) were two of the Jets' better forwards on the ice. Especially when compared to the horrible year Olli Jokinen was having, and the trickle down effect of him onto Evander Kane, the lack of minutes given to Burmi and Wellwood are confusing at best. Yet, they found themselves in the press box while Olli happily played on. It also worries me that Noel's feud with Alex Burmistrov seemed to take on a personal context, and there was a clear communication breakdown between the two of them.
Defensively, the Dustin Byfuglien 'experiment' of moving him to forward for a game and a half really had me shaking my head (remember when he was a grinding forward to start his career?). In fact, Byfuglien not sitting at all this year had me wondering as well. There were many occasions in which Dustin just did not seem interested at all. He missed assignments, would pinch at poor times or seemed to just not care, yet was always in the lineup. It would have been nice to see Arthurs Kulda plugged into a game after he was brought back, or even just a move to show Buff that he cannot get by with a sub par effort.
Keep Him Around?
No Options
The Jets right now have zero organizational depth. Claude Noel has been put in a position to create a winning team built of a strong top line, a young, skilled scorer, a lot of waiver wire pick ups, fourth line over-achievers, and question marks in Alex Burmistrov, Kyle Wellwood and Olli Jokinen. It is very difficult for a coach to push players beyond their capabilities and after a season that saw many players (including Kyle Wellwood) have career years, a fall back had to be expected.
Compounding this problem has been the injuries over the last two years to the defensive core, the underperforming of key players, and the goaltending he has received.
Injuries to Zach Bogosian, Toby Enstrom, Mark Stuart and Dustin Byfuglien have left Noel scrambling to decide how to put together a proper, productive blue line on a regular basis. It was a rare occasion this year that the Jets top 4 defensemen were all in the lineup, and that lack of consistency makes it difficult to have top notch production.
No need to look further than Olli Jokinen for a lack of production.The former 90-point player produced a mere 14 this year, with only 1 coming on the power play. To only have one constantly producing center and only one true, offensive line to roll out makes things difficult. With improvement from Jokinen next year should come more success, and more options for Noel.
Lack of constant, talented goaltending will kill any coaching plan. There is only so much he can do as a head coach to influence goaltending and he clearly wasn't confident enough in Montoya's abilities to play him more. I've made my feelings clear this week about the Jets' goaltending. Let's hope it will be vastly improved.
As his options expand and he has the ability to move and create line combinations that are properly balanced, we will truly be able to evaluate and question Claude Noel. Until then, it's only fair to wait and let him do his work.
It's Still Early
Coach Noel has been with this core for a mere a season and half. He has only had one real training camp and preseason, and only one year of constant practices. Aside from a small change here or there, he has been working with the same group and hasn't been able to input many of the recent Jets draft picks. Claude has AHL experience and knows how to work with younger developing players, and I for one am comfortable with him helping the young guys when they are ready. This offseason has an opportunity for improvement with such a high number of free agents. It may be best to wait and see what comes out of the summer, and how Claude Noel works with it before deciding to let him go.
Decision Time
In my opinion, you simply cannot and should not fire Coach Noel at this point in time. He has been a good coach in my opinion, and let's face it, the guy is a hoot to have around. By the end of the season he had appeared to have mended fences with Burmi, and he did bring a team that was projected to finish 14th in the East to a mere 4 points away from a playoff spot. Ask me again in a year or two, but for now I am all aboard with keeping Noel around.
Coach Claude Noel
Overall Rating: B
May 02 2013, 07:17PM
Colour me biased but I don't think this guy is an NHL quality head coach. Few thoughts:
1) They got outscored badly in both the first and third periods - badly. The fact that they did well in the second period is a fair mystery, and I'm going to have to look at some more data on that. I'll be curious to know what other teams have done that in recent memory and how they were assembled. Still, the team gave up a lot of possession time in those 1sts and 3rds.
2) Special teams are a key to evaluating coaching, in my opinion, assuming the roster has guys who have the ability to play on those units. The Jets are a little lacking on the latter, but not so much so that they should be last and 24th. Brutal.
3) Poor home record shows that he's getting out coached, even with last change.
4) As you said, his stubborn lineups were outrageous. Mittens with Kane all year? Jokinen not losing minutes? Tough, tough, tough. The Hainsey/Stuart pairing to start the year was a disaster. Pavelec clearly struggled in back to backs, but Montoya was glued to the bench.
I guess a team can't really run out a sub-par squad and fire the coach. Still, I'm not sure this is the coach I want running things when the team is in a position to win. So why have him here at all?
May 04 2013, 03:57AM
I can't see him being fired this offseason. The organization seems to be fairly loyal, and rather patient. Plus, I don't think he did a terrible job with the roster he was given.
On the other hand, it really bothered me when, in his press conferences, he'd roll his eyes while talking about Byfuglien, and how he was all over the ice. His tone was like "oh, well, you know byfuglien…". Hey Claude - you're the boss! Sit the guy, then. Send a message. The Jets need a coach, not someone hamming it up on TSN. Well, actually, TSN does need that now more than ever.
My guess is he's back next year, but if the Jets are toast by Christmas, he'll get canned while there's still some season left.

"When I put these shoes on I could immediately tell my hand was being put into a glove. I have only had that experience once before. They felt very good and have proved out to be so in the bit of wearing I have had. I will be buying the black pair shortly. I would greatly appreciate if they had the more tan color brown as well - but we cannot all be Imelda Marcos.... Oh - they are light - and they seem to run about a 1/2 size large - I normally wear 10.5 - and I am 10 in these - first time that has happened - but my feet and legs/joints feel great."

Dear Editor,
Do you think if we could find 18 women who claim they suffered rape, incest and violence in monogamous communities, we could write their stories and publish it in a book titled, "The Abuses of Monogamy?" Different cultures probably have different crime statistics.
Does that mean the police should arrest and punish cultures, rather than criminals? If we're going to judge polygamy as a life-style, we will need to look at most of the world during most of its history.
The problems in closed, cult-like unpopular communities today do not justify any judgment of the free practice of polygamy by consenting adults. I think a brief look at history would justify the conclusion that the practice of polygamy is not the source of the victim stories in "God's Brothel."
A more likely source might be my belief that it is almost impossible for a man to hold the authority and trust of a prophet in such a "cult" society and not be corrupted by that absolute power (David Koresh, for example). I think there are even some possible examples of Joseph Smith's battle against that corruption.
I'm not saying the faith and structure of the community is the source of the problem. I'm only saying history shows it is many fold more likely to be the source. Legalizing polygamy, and giving legitimacy to extra wives and children, would open some of our closed communities, and make it easier for the law to protect victims and punish criminals.
In my opinion, more legal and social oppression, such as the recent ratification of Amendment 3, will only increase the incidence of abuse, and decrease the ability to investigate such crimes. We cannot help where we are not trusted, any more in a polygamous community in Utah, than in a polygamous suburb in Iraq.

Hi Jorge. May I ask if you were originally from Cuba? Did you move to Washington DC because you work there? Do you find that there are more government jobs there? I have lived in Miami for almost 9 years now and speak Spanish but not as fluent as those with Latin origins. I am encountering a lot of problems with the bilingualism requirements in my job search here.
Good evening, Jorge! How are you doing? How was your weekend? Have you heard anything more about Australia?
How are you doing, Jorge? Haven't talked in a while, so just thought to drop you a line! Hope to talk with you soon!
Hello so how is Washington today

State Enforcement of Shale Gas Development Regulations, Including Hydraulic Fracturing
Hannah Jacobs Wiseman
Florida State University - College of Law
August 25, 2011
FSU College of Law, Public Law Research Paper Forthcoming
The United States is in the midst of a boom in natural gas and oil production, much of which has occurred in shale formations around the country. As shale development has expanded — largely as a result of new horizontal drilling and "slickwater" hydraulic fracturing (fracking, fracing, or hydofracking) techniques — questions have arisen regarding the environmental risks of drilling and fracturing in shales and how laws, policies, and regulations address these risks. To understand whether and how regulation addresses risks, one must know both the content of regulations and how they are applied through inspections of well sites, notations of violations, and/or enforcement. An accompanying paper by this author, entitled "Regulation of Shale Gas Development, Including Hydraulic Fracturing" addresses the content of federal, regional, state, and local regulations that apply to shale gas development; this paper explores, in a preliminary fashion, how these regulations are applied. It briefly surveys complaints about shale gas and tight sands development (both of which typically require fracturing) lodged by citizens with state agencies, states' notation of environmental violations at shale gas and tight sands wells both in response to these complaints and as a result of independently-instigated site visits or self-reported violations, and states' capacity to inspect sites and enforce violations noted. The objective of this "on-the-ground" review of shale gas development regulatory activities is to offer a preliminary picture of the environmental effects of shale gas development and how states address them through citations of violations and/or initiation of enforcement action. Regulations have little effect if they are rarely applied to regulated actors or only sporadically enforced. Looking to both the content of regulations, violations of the regulations, and enforcement therefore provides a more complete regulatory picture. The Energy Institute at the University of Texas funded the research for this paper.

Why don't more people read these mangas?
i like Hatori :3
an eye for an eye would only make the world blind.
It was good at first, then okay, then I just quit it.
D: It gets so boring and repetative.
Art wasn't that good at all either.
Would a guy like me like fruit basket?

I've read the whole manga and really loved it! I liked the anime as well, I just wish it had more episodes since the best events of the manga were not included <_<
My favorite character must be Isuzu (Rin), the horse. I really like her character.
Personally as long as it's manga I don't care, but I still refuse to accept yaoi.
Why don't more people read these mangas?
I read the manga. im not as obbessed with it as one as my friends though.
This is Gaara. Hes a bitch; but hes my sexy bitch.
I was always tied with Kyo(cat) and Hatsuharu(cow) for the best in both the manga and the anime. They were both very funny at times and then they would be serious. I also liked how this series had lots of secrets and twists. I thought the ending was also perfect. I'm trying to "persuade" my sister to watch it, and hopefully read it.

So comfy
"Look great, have gotten two compliments just today on how nice they look. Very generous around the ankles."

Great booties
"I really like these booties, they look great with pants and skirts alike. The only thing I would caution people about is that the dark grey color is really more of a dark brown. Also, they don't run big around your feet, but the ankle opening is pretty big so they can feel like they're sliding off your feet a bit."

The Perfect Pair of Booties
"I have been searching high and low for the right pair of casual booties to wear with jeans (skinny and bootleg) and skirts this fall and winter. Finally, I can rest at night knowing that the perfect pair is in my closet. These shoes were instantly comfortable and the leather smells absolutely incredible. I love the slight staining at the toe and heel to make them look worn in, and the button/strap detail at the back adds just enough. Very comfortable for the height. I can see myself wearing these a LOT this season!"
