In the words of Katsumoto on The Last Samurai "This is a good conversation".

There's still no word for loincloth in Na'vi. Someone needs to suggest one to Karyu Pawl.

I'm guessing the Na'vi swim a lot, maybe even as their primary way of bathing, and it's constantly wet or raining, so... maybe their clothing never gets dirty in the first place.

Either way, it doesn't matter. No where in the movie does it mention that the Na'vi have groin fungus problems. :D

You see! This is why I wanted it to stop.

I had Phở with chicken for lunch!! Anyone else know what it is?

josie20 03-28-2011 04:26 AM

^^Rice noodles?

ISV Venture Star 03-28-2011 04:28 AM

I know what it is. Tasty, that's what.

Pa'li Makto 03-28-2011 04:32 AM

Yep!! Josie20 you are on the right track. Its normally egg noodle in a broth with vegies and meat.
Vietnamese food is tasty. ;) Beats eating a average sandwich.

josie20 03-28-2011 04:37 AM

Never had it. I just used google to find out what it is :xD: I actually prefer sandwiches :P

Please please please listen to this! It's incredibly important!

Very Tough Love | This American Life

PART ONE.
Ira reports from Glynn County Georgia on Superior Court Judge Amanda Williams and how she runs the drug courts in Glynn, Camden and Wayne counties. We hear the story of Lindsey Dills, who forges two checks on her parents' checking account when she's 17, one for $40 and one for $60, and ends up in drug court for five and a half years, including 14 months behind bars, and then she serves another five years after that—six months of it in Arrendale State Prison, the other four and a half on probation. The average drug court program in the U.S. lasts 15 months. But one main way that Judge Williams' drug court is different from most is how punitive it is. Such long jail sentences are contrary to the philosophy of drug court, as well as the guidelines of the National Association of Drug Court Professionals. For violating drug court rules, Lindsey not only does jail terms of 51 days, 90 days and 104 days, Judge Williams sends her on what she calls an "indefinite sentence," where she did not specify when Lindsey would get out. (30 minutes)
PART TWO.
We hear about how Brandi Byrd and many other offenders end up in drug court, and we hear how one model drug court participant, Charlie McCullough, was treated by Judge Williams. (25 minutes)

^^I heard about this earlier on NPR. I can't say I approve of her style of judging.

Pa'li Makto 03-28-2011 05:46 AM

That's not really fair at all.

Ghaziya 03-28-2011 03:21 PM

I had a college professor look me straight in the eye once when I was whining about the grade she gave me on a research paper not being fair, and she said "Life is not fair, get used to it." She was right! :shock:
