About Us
Restore Mass Ave is an alliance of residents, foreign missions, arborists and non-profit groups working to rebuild the tree canopy and historic landscape that made Massachusetts Avenue a world attraction in the early 20th century. Through outreach and education we attract participation by owners of property, one third of whom are foreign missions. We spread the teaching of experts to those in community and train volunteer Treekeepers. We aspire to be a model for creating green neighborhoods elsewhere.
We are a 501 (c) 3, supported by financial donations from the community and in-kind donations from service providers and nurseries. Casey Trees is an important partner for additions of new trees. The National Trust for Historic Preservation supports our Historic Landscape educational brochure and planting guide.
Above: Green lines show the streets we're trying to restore.
Board of Directors
We work closely with city and federal agencies such as the DC Department of Transportation Urban Forestry Administration, the DC Historic Preservation Review Board, and the Department of State.
The federal Historic Landmark and Historic Preservation Act of 1978 protects buildings and greenscape in our area, which falls in the Dupont Circle Historic District, the Sheridan-Kalorama Historic District and the Massachusetts Avenue Historic District. Trees on public and private land are protected by the DC Urban Forest Preservation Act.
Trees planted through Restore Mass Ave count towards UNEP's Billion Tree Campaign which aims to add seven billion trees worldwide by the end of 2009. From Nairobi, Kenya, UNEP wrote "we endorse your undertakings." The campaign's Album even contains an article on our work!

Alice Adams does a credible job of transferring Booth Tarkington's popular Pulitzer Prize-winning novel to the screen, even if it adds a happier ending than the one in the book. A significant part of the credit belongs to director George Stevens, who keeps the film briskly paced without sacrificing character development and atmosphere. Filmed during the Great Depression, Alice Adams takes a satirical view of the 1920s, reminding 1935 audiences of some of the shallowness of those "better days." Hepburn's performance dominates the film, and the supporting cast functions mostly as props, though Fred MacMurray, Hepburn's nominal co-lead, manages to shine in moments. The film received two Oscar nominations, for Best Picture and for Hepburn's performance, and it was also a rarity for Hepburn: a box-office hit.

Earthquake-Safe Art for Above the Bed?
Given that we live in a zone where someday, eventually, all of our lovely things are likely to fall off the walls and shelves, we've always avoided hanging art above the bed. Even making use of picture moldings, like Mark and Sunrise Ruffalo do in their bedroom pictured above, strikes us as pretty risky, even if it looks great. (Maybe celebrities are surrounded by forcefields to protect them from falling objects.) But surely there are ways to decorate the space above the bed without risking your life...
This string of family photos (spotted on Decor8) looks pretty, though we're not entirely sure if we'd feel right snoozing under all of their watchful gazes. It's an idea easily translated to other artwork, however, like little affordable prints from a site like Tiny Showcase, or photos you've taken in your travels.
The right piece of art, of course, might need no frame. Somehow this antique poster, which we came across on I Suwannee, looks perfect simply tacked into the wall; with a frame, the rustic vibe might be lost. (Of course, the chandelier poses an earthquake risk as well, but even if you imagine it gone the room is lovely.)
A mural or wallpaper headboard is another good choice. Now if only we could frame our bed with floor-to-ceiling books without fear (of earthquakes and dust allergies)!
What do you think? What are your favorite choices for earthquake-safe bedroom art?
(Images: Domino, Decor8, I Suwannee)

It's funny how the brains of us west coasters are wired in a way that works itself into home decorating. I have never had anything above my bed. Which is unfortunate, because I love the way it looks. I suppose I could sleep peacefully with a string of greeting cards or photos above me!
I was going to suggest a vintage quilt or interesting fabric (or just canvas painted with your favorite color) on lightweight stretchers bars. Even if the latter bonks you on the head, it's unlikely to cause injury.
I have a beautiful poster tacked to the wall with tiny, near-invisible tacks. The rest of the room is polished, so it doesn't leave it looking unfinished.
I framed a 5x7 photo for above my bed (off-center) and I still haven't been able to make myself hang it. :( Maybe, though, with the mat(te?) I could take the glass out?
(Born and raised on the west coast, so I've always just had fun headboards instead.)
The only thing hanging above our bed (the headboard is attached to the bed) is a dreamcatcher I got years ago. Earthquakes aren't big in Indiana - LOL - but at least if there was one, I wouldn't get hit with anything that would hurt (it's mostly leather).
Seconding the quilt suggestion. If you don't sew/quilt yourself, you can contact a local shop. They usually can put you in touch with someone who can make one for you.
First... there is no point of living in constant back-of-mind scare. This don't mean in any case to be careless about safety. Maybe... just maybe... that shake everyone is still waiting for since about 1914 haven't come in full force yet and will not in our lifetimes. That said....
A simple thing is replacing the frames with lighter frames and synthetic glass (ikea is great for this), or maybe no glass at all. That way you don't have to sacrifice your art... Instead of just hanging from a nail try a hook type hanger like the ones for glass. That way it would shake like crazy but won't fall. And keep your bed at least 3" from the wall.
Another is a big upholstered headboard; comfortable, luxurious and a very nice statement.
Other is a large, large print (could be custom made of whatever you want), or a section of wallpaper or just painted directly on the wall.
A stretched canvas without a frame. I've bounced one off of my head before (not on purpose), no permanent damage (that I'm aware of ;)).
Hang the frame as you normally would but put a blob of Blue Tak on the two bottom corners and stick to the wall. If the art hits you in the event of an earthquake, it probably will have the entire wall attached to it.
Frame shops sell hardware meant to secure picture frames to the wall to prevent theft -- especially used in public buildings, but I'd think also useful for you earthquake country folk.
(I suppose I'm pretty cavelier with my moderately heavy sunburst mirror hanging from one nail over my bed -- if it falls (nail failure more likely than earthquake in NH, although not out of the question -- we have had them...) and kills me, so be it...)
I have a sari hanging over my bed like a canopy, but also, the most decorative part hangs above the headboard, like art.
In the last earthquake, several of my framed jazz LPs fell off the walls and shattered glass *everywhere*. I'm still finding bits. I learned my lesson the hard way.
home body: i haven't found a plexiglass that isn't super reflective :( recommendations?
I too like the idea of a mural. But if your artsy chops aren't up to the task of producing a complicated image, you could just mask-off some simple shapes and slather on the paint!
I'm about to hang a giant poster above my bed. In order to save my head and lots of $, I will get it mounted and framed with no plexiglass or glass cover! My room doesn't get too much sun, so fading won't be an issue.
I don't live in an earthquake prone area so I'm not really experienced, but I would think that just taking the glass out of the frame and nailing through the frame into the wall (with an anchor) would work alright. Or stretched canvas done the same way. But that's not really something I've dealt with in Detroit lol.
It's amazing how your thought process changes once you've been through an earthquake or two. I'm from the East and used to hang hubcaps and rocks and probably an anvil above me and think nothing of it.
But now I'm living on the West coast and I've been through 4 medium to small quakes since october and it really does change how you see your arrangements.
I do shudder a little when I see all the cool crowded walls of frames on AT or even when i'm home again where the ground aint planning on movin any time soon and see too much stuff balanced on a shelf. I stayed at a friend's house and had trouble sleeping because she had a shelf of books directly above the bed- I just kept thinking, "If I got up and moved the bed over 2 feet it would be weird. But nothing would hit me...."
There are all sorts of earthquake proof wall hooks on the market. I have never had a problem with any of them and I lived within miles of each the last two big quakes we had in California.
But pictures over your bed are probably the least of your worries in a big quake: friends had a full, wooden amoire jump several yards across their bedroom and crush their bed during the Northridge quake (luckily they had gotten out of bed before it happened). After hearing their experience, I am more worried about large furniture on the opposite side of my bedroom than I am about any relatively light art right above my bed!
Depending on the frame there are a few things that museums do to secure their frames. If the strainer on the back is wood, they would install d-rings on both sides and pinch close the hook that the d-ring would hang on. For additional security you can put museum wax at each corner of the frame underneath to make sure it doesn't jostle when a quake hits. There are also mirror hangers that secure frames to the wall. Both types of hardware are available at your local hardware store.
Other option is more expensive. There are art frames that have beveled strainers on the back. The frames would hang off a similar beveled cleat that screws to the wall (also known as a french cleat). This is absolutely secure since the entire weight of the frame is supported by the cleat and one would have to lift the frame up and then out to remove it from the wall. The company I used to work for made these frames. http://www.curatorial.com/framing.html

This is a wonderful recipe--so delicious! I followed the recipe exactly except that I only made 1/3 of it and baked it in an 9x 5 pan. The serving size is quite generous, too. It's even better with a dollop of whipped cream, ice cream, or vanilla yogurt. This really doesn't need any spices or anything else added to it; it's perfect as is.

Hey, remember that time when it was raining spiders in Brazil? Newsflash! Things are about to get way worse. It's about to pour down dead mice in Guam. Get out your thickest foul weather gear and the strongest umbrella you own because shit's about to get real on this south Pacific island territory.
Only, interestingly enough, this isn't another freak of nature incident. It's actually a freak of the U.S. government. Mmm hmm, we're about to bomb Guam with deceased rodents filled with poison.
There is, however, a valid explanation.
Ever since the U.S. took over Guam after World War II, the pesky, horrible, no-good brown tree snake arrived via a war ship and has never left. The thing's been downright detrimental to the island, killing off almost all of its native bird species, biting humans, and knocking out power when they climb electrical poles.
To say the brown tree snake is a nuisance is an understatement, but finally, it seems, we've come up with a way to curtail their ever growing and ever damaging population.
The U.S. is going to drop hundreds of mice on the island laced with acetaminophen, a drug that's lethal to the snakes, but harmless to humans and most other animals. The dead mice will be dropped with little, tiny floatation devices attached to them, which will ideally be caught in the trees, where the snakes live.
Authorities are worried that if something isn't done soon, the snakes will hop a plane or a boat to Hawaii. Experts believe if they reach the Rainbow State, they'd be just as detrimental there as they are in Guam.
So if you had your bag packed for Guam, I'd postpone your visit until after it stopped raining dead mice, unless, of course, rigor mortis rodents and free over-the-counter pain pills are your thing, then by all means, Guam it up.
Would you be more afraid of it raining spiders or raining mice?

Since i have a severe phobia of mice, I'd rather have it raining spiders than mice any day!
Most animals won't eat anything dead, cats most likely won't. And they are only dropping 2000 little mice, mostly around Anderson air force base. Just to clarify, the snakes are not as bad as the authors of these articles make it out to be, yes they killed off the coco bird but that was over many years not just like a week. In my 20 years of living on the island I have encountered about 5 snakes, certainly never been bitten by them (they aren't poisonous either). It just sounds blown out of proportion, it's not like you have to watch where you walk as you might step on a snake scenario...

The latest celebrity news has learned that RIHANNA finally opened up about her highly-speculated reunion, saying "we know exactly what we have now."
By now, Rihanna is very much aware of why everyone disapproves of her being anywhere near her violent ex, Chris Brown. Still, she thinks it's nobody's business if she wants to get into bed with him and ride his passenger seat again, now that he has officially ended things with his most recent ex, Karrueche Tran.
The singer has avoided the topic in her every interview for months now but in a new interview with Rolling Stone's newest issue, she finally caved and explained why she's been spending more and more time with her ex.
RiRi told the magazine:
"I decided it was more important for me to be happy. I wasn't going to let anybody's opinion get in the way of [my happiness]."
Don't get her wrong, she realizes the risks that she is taking every day that she hangs out with Brown. She explained:
"Even if it's a mistake, it's my mistake. After being tormented for so many years, being angry and dark, I'd rather just live my truth and take the backlash. I can handle it."
Rihanna sort of begs that we give their renewed romance the benefit of the doubt. She says:
"When you add up the pieces from the outside, it's not the cutest puzzle in the world . . . You see us walking somewhere, driving somewhere, in the studio, in the club, and you think you know."
She continues:
"It's different now. We don't have those types of arguments anymore. We talk about s–t. We value each other. We know exactly what we have now, and we don't want to lose that."
Given that Brown hasn't exactly kept himself away from trouble, there's still a chance that he'd start getting physical with her again. But Rihanna argues:
"He doesn't have the luxury of f–king up again. That's just not an option. I can't say that nothing else will ever go wrong. But I'm pretty solid in the knowing that he's disgusted by that. And I wouldn't have gone this far if I ever thought that was a possibility."
She adds in Chris's defense:
"He made a mistake, and he's paid his dues. He's paid so much. And I know that's not a place he would ever want to go back to. And sometimes people need support and encouragement, instead of ridicule and criticism and bashing."
Well, there you have it. Scrap those interviews where she said they are "not together" because they very much are and she has no one to blame but herself if she gets hurt again—both physically and emotionally.
Do you think Rihanna will regret her decision of getting back together with Chris?

Rated 4.8 out of 5 by 23 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ibuyforthefamily Looks great very warm Bought this for my son who doesn't like to wear jackets - this will be his primary outer ware for this winter. Really comfy and looks great. July 22, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Mark North Face Men's Fleece Great product at a great price. North Face makes excellent clothing. Their quality is par-excellant. April 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by DEW Great Product Great product and fit. This is one of the best 1/4 zip's I have. February 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by susan87 Warm and Stylish North Face Fleece Sweater Love the North Face Fleece Sweater I got for my dad. He loves it too! It looks great on him and keeps him warm and comfortable. February 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by YesToYogaPants Lots of compliments My man loves it and he gets compliments every time he wears it. I got him the Dune/Beige Heather color and there have been many conversations debating the true color of this. Some say army green, some say beige, some say it looks like really tiny camo print. Either way, looks great. He can throw it over a t-shirt and jeans to be casual or wear it over a nice button up with khakis and it dresses up nicely. Good quality, washes well (I wash inside out and dry on low), very comfy! I do feel like I could get the same thing for cheaper if it wasn't North Face but when can you do. February 5, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Angel Mom Big Hit!!! All three of my sons not have the North Face Men's Gordon Lyons Quarter Zip and love it. One is at college and loves to have for the cold walks to class., one is in the business world and loves it to throw on before going out at night with friends, and the final son is in high school and loves it because it fits in the lockers but keeps him warm like a heavier coat. Great buy for us. February 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tony20 Great product for the price I bought the grey as my first piece of North Face gear. I liked it so much, I bought the red one as well. Great fit. Very warm. January 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by GWO Great pullover My wife bought me one for Christmas. I liked it so much I bought another in January. Very warm, soft and comfortable. Probably my favorite Christmas gift January 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Link The North Face Men's Gordon Lyons Quarter Zip Fleece Sweater Great sweater!!! I highly recommend these sweaters. They are really comfortable! January 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kaytlyn Love! I love this pullover! I am a female, and I usually wear women's XL in pullovers, so I got a large in this and it fit great! It is a little big, but I like my things to fit loosely. Also, I've gotten so many compliments since I've gotten it. I got the red color. Definitely recommend! January 18, 2014

Dr. John E. Sarno, author of the revolutionary book Mind Over Back Pain, is a medical pioneer whose program has helped patients overcome their back conditions- without drugs or dangerous surgery. Now, using his latest research into TMS, Dr. Sarno goes one step further. After identifying stress and other psychological factors in back pain, he demonstrates how many of his patients have then gone on to heal themselves without exercise or other physical therapy.
Discover why self-motivated and successful people are prone to TMS, how anxiety and repressed anger trigger muscle spasms, how people "train themselves" to experience back pain, and how you may get relief from back pain within two to six weeks by recognizing TMS and its causes.
©1991 by John E. Sarno, M.D.; (P)1999 by Audio Renaissance
"life takes a u-turn"
Dont miss this book if u ever felt back pain. It changed my life from a person who had become fearful of sitting for more than 10 min, going out of home for long and what not. It brought me back to my mountaineering, soccer days. Within a few weeks of listening to this book I was back on a trek at an altitude of 4400 mts and finished the trek in 2 days instead of avg 4 days. I started running after a period of year and a half. I bought back shoes for trekking, running and soccer all of which I had thrown away as doctors had said I would never be able to resume these activities. This book happens to be the biggest bliss to back pain sufferers. THere are no words to thank Dr Sarno for this approach to deal with back pain. Cheers Dr Sarno !!!
"Believe the Unbelievable"
I have been dealing with back bain for over 10 years. I read this book with deep skepticism, but in the end, this book has given me my life back.
Thank you Dr. Sarno
"Healing Back Pain"
A very thought provoking book which made me ponder the nature of my back pain. I have to admit that since taking the advice of Dr. Sarno I have had considerably less back pain than before. It's not a hard process, rather a change of attitude.
I'm glad I read this book.
I don't have the printed version but I will get it, too.
None can compare except for Dr. Sarno's two other books.
I have listened to all of Dr. Sarno's books here on audible. All I can say is he is a GENIUS! This guy deserves the Nobel Prize for Medicine!!!
Have you ever heard of a book the heals you just by listening to it? He set me free and made me the master of my body again after suffering the whole of 2011 from bursitis, sciatica (herniated disc, or so they say) and morton's neuroma. I bought the Mindbody Prescription earlier, used to avoid going out because of the burning pain in my feet, but from day one I was able to walk several miles at the Pentagon then danced the night away in the evening!!! Talk about miracles!
"Makes Perfect Sense"
The message in this book makes sense and I found the info very helpful. The only drawback is that there is very limited info regarding treatment.
"Do not buy this book!"
Very disappointing. You are listening for hours to find out why Sarno is supposed to be giving you a superior solution whilst he doesn't give you a clue on his ideas. Wish I had spend my money wiser.
"A good listen"
The information is helpful with understanding the behavior of the unconscious mind and how it can cause pain.
"The best book I ever read!"
I have listened to it and Dr Sarno's other 2 books all day long for 5 weeks ago. It has healed my back pain and more. It also healed my husband's back pain and several friends of mine who got the book after I told them about it.
Loved it all equally.
I listened to all 3, but I think his last one The Divided Mind was my favorite.
Life Is Full of Pain
Please thank Dr. Sarno for saving my life!
"If you have pain, GET this book, you have nothing"
It changed my life! And it will do the same for you, I guarantee it!!
I went from barely being able to perform any physical activity to running every day! I was in pain all the time, and now barely ever think about it, my whole life has change… If you are reading these reviews it means you have back pain, if so then stop here and buy the book! Cause worst case you lose $13, best case it will change everything about your life!
"The real deal"
I recommend Dr. Sarno and his work to anyone who suffers chronic pain of any kind.
A number of the case examples strike to the core. His explanation of TMS, and how it works is very clear.
That it is Dr. Sarno himself who reads the book that really makes it good. He has a kind but authoritative voice, and his concern for his patients is obvious.
I suggest listening to the book in conjunction with reading his other book, 'The Mind-Body Prescription'. As soon as you accept the truth of what he is saying, you will be free of pain. It worked for me after 20 years and having tried everything else.
I understand why some reviewers are skeptical, but they don't seem to grasp the basic concept, that it is the KNOWLEDGE of TMS that breaks the pain chain. Once you 'get it' you are free.
I recommend you keep a journal and really drill down into all the things that cause you anger, resentment, stress, and anxiety. Do so while keeping in mind the personality traits that often lend themselves to TMS. You'll be surprised how much gunk bubbles up. As you do this while considering everything Dr. Sarno speaks about, at some point the nickel drops, and you're home free.
"Fantastic book"
I've listened to it lots of times. It was easy to listen to, with the author having a great reading voice and very well structured. Complicated process's were explained in a very detailed way and I could understand the concepts that were being presented properly.
Most importantly the book has helped me to heal my back pain and tension heartaches. I would recommend this to anyone.
"The only book you'll ever need to heal back pain"
I was a little skeptical when I first started listening to this book, as I had suffered from back pain (fibromyalgia) for many years and tried countless treatments. As I listened to Dr. John Sarno's narration, I identified with everything he said. It was like he was describing me ??? my personality, my pain, and my pattern of symptoms and associated treatments. I threw all the treatments in the bin, said goodbye to my physiotherapist, and gradually got better within months.
Listen to Dr. Sarno, listen to your inner self, and you WILL recover from back pain without anything else but this book and a lot of patience. Good luck.

I was looking at the recently baptized board at my church, and noticed this…
Some woman named her baby Sailor Moon.
Maybe somebody was being funny, I thought, but nope. It said Sailor Moon on the name list as well. I've heard some of my coworkers (I work in the nursery) talk about one of the new babies with an unusual name, and when I asked what it was, they said that it was Sailor Moon. I really hope that this is just a nickname for her…
Update: I finally met Sailor Moon. The workers stick to calling her Sailor.
Mod M: At least "Sailor" is a fairly acceptable name. Poor kid :(

This story takes place last february. I decided to go to a Maid Cafe with a friend, who I'll call G. I had just turned 16, and G was and still is 17. When we arrived, there was a group of people waiting to be let in. Most of them didn't look like weeaboos and turned out to be pretty cool, but there was this guy.
He was wearing some kind of overall, and he had long curly brown hair which he was wearing on pigtails. Also, he was 23. First thing he did was compliment a Luigi pin I had. I was already a little freaked out by him, but I decided not to judge him on how he looked and started talking to him. It was a pretty normal chat, with topics like which anime we liked and stuff like that. I thought he was pretty cool.
The Maid Cafe took a long time to open, so a girl checked it's facebook page from her phone to see if something had happened. It had been cancelled. It was a big disappointment for everyone, so we decided to go eat something together. So, this guy who I'll call A, was pretty affectionate, but he was like that with everyone, so I didn't make a big deal out of it. He said he didn't have a facebook, so the only way to keep contact with us was to have our cellphone numbers. I, still trusting him, gave him mine, which was a big mistake.
So later he started hanging arround me more than the others, and I started getting uncomfortable. I tried to get closer to G, so if A attempted something weird he'll make him back off. Tough luck. G was so caught up talking with some girl that he didn't even notice me. A started getting more and more affectionate, trying to hold my hand or getting closer than I was comfortable with. I didn't say anything and now I regret I did, because it only got worse later.
We were like 6 people, so I tried hanging with the others to get away from him. It worked for a while. When we arrived at the restaurant I sat as far as possible from him. I ended up between two guys who were quite nice to me, though one of them said he had to make an effort not to eat like a pig in front of a lady.
He started creeping on me again after we left the restaurant, calling me (I'll call myself N) N-chan, and saying that he will buy 3 robots, and give me 2 of them so they would protect me just like in his favorite anime. He also said he wanted to write with a marker in my face. That was pretty creepy.
After that, he left me alone, took out his cellphone and started texting someone. I was pretty upset that G hadn't noticed anything, so I texted a friend about it. Then I got a text from him. It said he thought I was really pretty, and asked if I wanted to go out with him to get to know each other better. I, of course, refused. I was horrified, mostly because of the age difference. Remember, he was a 23 years old guy hitting on a 16 years old girl! Finally, G noticed something was up, and asked me about it. I told him later, when we where alone browsing though manga in a store. He was actually glad for me! I was so pissed off, but I didn't said anything as I didn't want to ruin the day even more. A kept texting me, pleading for me to give him a chance, and I finally told him I was a lesbian and my best friend was my girlfriend so he backed off. I blocked his number from my phone so he would leave me alone already. Recently, G got a text from him asking if we were going to some con he was going. We were actually thinking about going but it was too expensive so we decided not to.
Now I realise how stupid I was to trust him in the first place, but hopefully this experience might have taught me to beware of strangers :/
Warning: English isn't my first language so… some of this story may get confusing. Please bear with me.
Before I start the story, I want to give you a little background of myself that will be considered very important in the whole storyline: I will call myself 'Mari'. I am a girl that is part Filipino in my dad's side of the family and in my mom's side, I am Chinese and Japanese. My mom's side of the family had a very heavy influence in my childhood till now and not only that, this part is also the main key in the story. Please keep that in mind. Also, I am a person that went through, I guess, a 'weaboo' phase when I was younger, despite my heritage.
Alright, that's pretty much it! Now, onwards with the story!
Around maybe one or two years ago in high school, I had encountered the term 'weaboo' for the first time and found out what it meant from a friend. My friend, whom shall be named Louise in this story, had told me all about it and how we were probably like that when I was younger. I used to be a rabid anime-fan girl that would gush about 'hot anime boys' and such. Over the years, though, that kind of thing decreased and because of bad experiences I had with it, I just stopped altogether. I still liked anime/manga to an extent but I don't talk about it as much, only to my close friends who shared the interest.
Anyways, Louise then explained to me that weaboos are anime-fans that are overly obsessed with Asian culture, particularly the Japanese culture, and often try to express to other people of how much they know about the Japanese way of life. Not only that, she also said how these people desire to actually want to be Japanese and how they have an aspiring goal to live in Japan one day.
I was quite surprised that there was actually a term for a group of people like that and it made me wonder about a lot of things. Nonetheless, Louise had also warned me that these people can be quite annoying, tend to speak in broken Japanese, worship Japan and its ground, and think that anime was the best thing in the whole world. She also added that they are the people I should try to avoid. At first, I didn't know how to react and instead, laughed it off and said…
"I'm sure we won't see someone like that any time soon and besides, most anime fans we had met are good people. What are the chances of actually meeting a person like that?"
Oh, how I wanted to take that back. I really wanted to… want to know why?
Back in Junior year of high school, to be exact… was the time when I came face-to-face with my first, actual weaboo.
Let us call her 'Hime', shall we?
So today, I went to a meetup and photoshoot with a local anime group. This was my first meetup with them, and most everyone there was very nice! I was expecting there would be at least a handful of weebs though. There was only one, but boy, did she deliver.
Upon arriving at the shoot, the weeb shows up wearing what can only be described as a cheap imitation kimono that I'm 95% sure I saw in an FYE. Her wig is a tangled mess, and she came armed with typical weeb snacks, pocky and ramune soda. This weeb's problem? Personal space. She has no idea what it means, and will try and attach herself to anyone and everyone.
Now, I am not a touchy feely person by any means. I have anxiety problems and personal space issues. I only allow people to hug me if I know them, and most people understand this. However, weeb decides that she's cold and wants to grab and hold on to me. Obviously, this upset me, so I very bluntly asked "Excuse me, what the hell are you doing?" She whined "Oh Rin-chan (I was cosplaying Rin Okumura from Ao no Exorcist) I'm so cold. Warm me up." Luckily, two friends who we'll call William and Tsunade were able to bail me out of this situation and get her to leave me be.
After failing to attach herself to me, she latches onto two male cosplayers playing Izaya and Shizuo from 'Durarara' Every time I look over there, she's glomping them, hugging them, shrieking … typical weeb bullshittery. Unfortunately, I know these two fellows, and they're far too nice to tell her to GTFO. So they're stuck babysitting this squealing, stupid mess.
Luckily, this girl left the shoot early, but not before groping Tsunade and spanking another friend of mine, who we will call Vicious, hard right on his ass. He was not amused by this, to say the least.
Needless to say, I'm not looking forward to running into this girl again. She's not going to stop me from attending meetups, but at least her assenine behavior is somewhat entertaining in hindsight.
Oh do i have a weeaboo for you.
A girl that goes to my school (lets call her K) was your average weeb. She would wear naruto, death note, and various anime shirts basically every day to school. She also would always call people bakas or hating trolls when they gave her their slightest opinion- even a teacher.So on a class trip to Hershey Park (i live on long island so it takes probably a good 4 to 5 hours to get there) about 30 minutes into the ride she pulled a big portable speaker out of her backpack abd STARTED TO BLAST VOCALOID MUSIC. AT 4 AM. This along with her carmelldansen along for a good 45 minutes led to the bus driver pulling over and yelling at her and i almost pissed myself because this bus driver looked like her was 50 and told her to 'Turn off that junk and sit your weeaboo ass down'. And not a single japanese song or anime reference was made that whole day.Best. Bus driver. Ever.
Mod S: That bus driver wins, he just fucking wins!
This was a youtube comment on a video about how to make an eyepatch for a Ciel Phantomhive cosplay…
I just… Okay..?

|The Continental Divide Disaster Behavioral Health Conference
|For over 150 years, pioneers in the Rocky Mountain West have been inventing ways to bridge the Continental Divide, an obstacle of enormous challenge with altitudes often exceeding 14,000 feet. The Annual Continental Divide Disaster Behavioral Health Conference continues this pioneering tradition by promoting the creation of exciting, innovative partnerships that improve interventions following a disaster, terrorist event, or pandemic outbreak. Scientists and practitioners must come together in order to infuse one another's work with new ideas and understanding that will spark innovation in practice and in science. As professionals passionate about disaster behavioral health we believe that by coming together we will build a bridge across the divide that separates us, one that will enhance our behavioral health community and advance our profession, bridging the divide between practitioners and scientists. To date, three conferences to address these important issues have been held (2007, 2008, and 2009).

Home » News » Politics » Town Meetings
Auburn board makes quick work of budget questions
One school board member quipped that the 17 minutes it took to conduct the meeting might be "a record."
The first article up for debate was the collective bargaining agreement reached between the Auburn School Board and the Auburn Education Association. The agreement provides three salary and benefit increases over the next three years: $82,270 increase for the 2013-2014 fiscal year, $111,433 increase for 2014-2015, and an $85,245 increase for 2015-2016.
Resident Gilbert Oriol inquired on the reason for the spike in the second year of the agreement.
He was answered by board member Alan Villeneuve, who said that while the second- and third-year raises were both 1.75 percent, there are changes in the health insurance burden which account for the discrepancy.
"In the third year, the health insurance percentages change," said Villeneuve. "The teachers pay an additional 2.5 percent health benefit, so that's why the number goes down.
The district's proposed operating budget followed. The budget comes in at $11,609,192, with the default budget falling at $11,437,610. Kathleen Porter, the board's representative on the Auburn Budget Committee, opened the discussion by thanking the Budget Committee.
"It's a lot of work," she said. "We actually do have a very good working relationship. We actually have fun, and I enjoyed it a lot. It's another successful year, and we bring forward our budget."
Resident and Planning Board Chairman Stoney Worster questioned school officials on several details of the budget.
One was an increase in student transportation cost: For the current school year, $558,730 was raised and appropriated. The transportation line in the proposed budget 2013-2014 school budget calls for $683,405. Kathleen Porter answered that the increase was due to the district's high school students currently being split between Memorial High School in Manchester and Pinkerton Academy in Derry. Two buses are being added to the district's transportation schedule.
The only change made to the warrant was a minor grammatical correction.
The final warrant article, which would take $25,000 from an undesignated fund surplus and place it into the School Construction Expendable Trust Fund, received no discussion. The fund finances construction, renovation, and expansion projects on school buildings and grounds.
The session's relative quiet may in part have been due to sparse attendance. Not counting school officials, only 14 people were present.
Porter used the opportunity to recognize several school officials who were present. Becky McCarthy, district clerk, District Moderator James Andrus, and School Board member Nancy Pelton were presented granite sculptures carved in the shape of the state.
The Auburn School District ballot will be presented alongside the town ballot at the Auburn Town Election March 12 at Auburn Village School, 11 Eaton Road. The polls will be open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.

And the official title for Star Trek 2 might just be…
If you were wondering what you might be calling JJ Abrams' next Star Trek movie, it probably won't be 'Star Trek 2'. Instead, it looks like it might be called 'Star Trek: Into Darkness'.
According to Simon Pegg, Khan is not in the next Star Trek movie
A while back, a lot of people seemed really damn certain that Benedict Cumberbatch was playing Khan in JJ Abrams' next Star Trek film. But according to actor Simon Pegg, that's not the case. He can't say who Cumberbatch is, but he's not Khan.
Spoiler alert: Benedict Cumberbatch is playing who in Star Trek 2?
We've seen a couple set photos of Benedict Cumberbatch in Star Trek 2, but it hasn't been entirely clear who he's actually playing. Now the rumor mill has started churning with the rumor that Cumberbatch will be playing…
New photos from Star Trek 2 shows Spock in a cool orange metal space suit
Even though JJ Abrams put a wall of trailers around the Star Trek 2 set, photographers have these things called "ladders" and have come up with a few new set photos showing Spock in some sort of awesome orange metal suit.
JJ Abrams gets pissed off about set photos, builds a giant wall
About a month ago, several pictures of Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana and Benedict Cumberbatch in character, in costume and on the set of the new Star Trek movie hit the internet. Happens all the time. Only it reeeeally pissed off director JJ Abrams, who had a massive wall made of shipping containers erected around the set to keep the paparazzi out.
Set photos from Star Trek 2 show Spock neck pinching the fuck out of Benedict Cumberbatch
Shooting's underway for JJ Abrams' Star Trek 2, and in the first two set photos, we see Zachary Quinto as Spock Vulcan neck-pinching the holy fuck out of Benedict Cumberbatch and Zoe Saldana as Uhura.
Sherlock actor Benedict Cumberbatch cast in Star Trek 2
It must be "Cast all the British actors" time in the pre-production cycle for JJ Abram's Star Trek 2. Yesterday, we told you about former Doctor Who companion Noel Clarke landing a spot in the movie and now it looks like Benedict Cumberbatch is joining the cast as well.
Former Doctor Who companion Noel Clarke joins the Star Trek 2 cast
Joining the ever-expanding cast of JJ Abrams' Star Trek 2 is Noel Clarke, who if you're a Doctor Who fan, you may recognize as zero-turned-hero Mickey Smith from the Rose Tyler era of Doctor Who. I wasn't familiar with Noel Clarke before Doctor Who, but by the time the character of Mickey was fully fleshed out, I was really impressed with Clarke as an actor, so good for him on landing this role.
JJ Abrams' Star Trek 2 gets a solid release date
If you're looking forward to seeing Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto suiting up again on the USS Enterprise, it looks like you'll be waiting a couple springs. Star Trek 2 will be hitting theaters on May 17, 2013.
New Star Trek comic book series will bridge the gap between the first and second JJ Abrams Star Trek films
Even though JJ Abrams next Star Trek movie won't be out next summer as some had hoped, it's got a director, it's got a script and writers and is currently scouting for shooting locations, though it shouldn't be difficult, since you can drape anything completely in greenscreen cloth.
JJ Abrams talks about possibly introducing a brand new Trek villain into Star Trek 2
When JJ Abrams did his Star Trek movie reboot, he conveniently made his Star Trek world a slightly different alternate reality than had appeared in either the original series or any of the original series movies, giving him a lot more room for creativity without brining down the hellfire and brimstone wrath of hardcore Trekkies.

Can Long-Term Care Insurance Partnership Programs Increase Coverage and Reduce Medicaid Costs?
AbstractAlthough long-term care is a substantial financial risk for retired households, only about 10 percent purchase insurance, with many of the remainder relying on Medicaid. Faced with rising Medicaid expenditures on long-term care, states have attempted to encourage the purchase of private long-term care insurance through partnership programs that exempt purchasers of qualifying policies from the Medicaid asset test. Using numerical optimization techniques, and assuming plausible preference parameters, we show that the programs will only increase insurance coverage among single males by 5 percent and single females by 4 percent. Most of the program benefits will go to those who would have purchased non-partnership long-term care insurance anyway. Thus, the cost of the subsidy will exceed the savings in Medicaid costs.

The Iowa Board of Regents is considering a measure that could have a major influence on the way Iowa children receive mental health services.
The University of Iowa is looking to establish a center dedicated to improving the state's disability and mental health system.
Thursday the Regents will decide whether to accept the recommendation for the plan.
Kim Jensen of Cedar Falls is looking for answers for her 11-year-old daughter, who is battling a severe mental illness called Reactive Attachment Disorder.
Jensen has dealt with the frustration of searching for effective treatment.
"It's extremely frustrating that you have a child that you can't figure out how to help," she said.
Some ten thousand families in Iowa find themselves in similar situations.
A recent study estimates that's the number of children whose mental health needs are being unmet.
"I think we could do so much better about having wrap around services available for these children and having team meetings where everybody is invited to the table," Jensen said.
As part of the state's overall mental health redesign, a new idea looks to better coordinate services across the state.
"We want children to ultimately reach their optimal potential," said Dr. Debra Waldron with the UI Children's Hospital, who also serves as Vice Chair for Child Health Policy and Statewide Health Services.
The University of Iowa is looking to create the Center for Child Health Improvement and Innovation.
The new center would create a team in charge of developing and implementing guidelines for treating kids battling mental illness in all 99 counties .
The group would also provide technical assistance in training community providers.
"We need to make it the norm that emotional, behavioral, and mental health services are well-coordinated with the rest of the health care so there are no barriers," Waldron said..
The hope is a new system can finally get the results families like the Jensen's have been so desperately searching for.
"If you're not working with them in their childhood until they turn 18, then you lose control," Jensen said.

Now the controversial actress has taken on the role of a pre-op male-to-female transsexual in a new British drama series. The twist is that she's an assassin, who's distracted from her day-to-day hitman (hitwoman?) duties when she finds out she's fathered several children and must now take on the role of a parent.
Even for a hardened arthouse veteran like Sevigny, the part proved challenging. "I hated it. It was an awful experience," she said of the hours it took to attach the prosthetic penis she wears in some scenes. "I felt very exposed... having people so close to your personal parts anyway, who you're not sleeping with, for an hour and a half each day."
Sevigny said the role made her feel unattractive, and she also worried about offending the transgender community. "I was wondering why they didn't want to cast a man or a real transgender person … and I was afraid of the pressure from the gay community or the transgender community and how they would feel, and wanting to be respectful," she told the UK's Guardian newspaper.
This isn't the first time Sevigny has taken on the issue of gender in her roles: she won critical acclaim for her portrayal of a girl in love with a girl who wanted to become a boy in the 1999 movie Boys Don't Cry.
We think Chloe's a great actress and can carry off any part, even if it requires adding a … part. What do you reckon? Will Hit & Miss be a hit, or a miss?
