Professor Hans Von Puppet has a new co-host today, Sasha Snow. Sasha, who’s been in California for a couple of months, hails from Texas; though she doesn’t bring her accent with her. Sasha is an inspiring actress and director at the same time.
Our topic for this week is all about pubic hair. The trend right now is become a little bit trimmed instead of being so hairy in the inside. By consensus, women tend to like men who retain less pubic hair; it’s like leaving less hair in the chest, in the legs, in the genital area is sexier. So remove a little bit, put it off the way, and keep the mustache.

Quadratic equations, factorization, and imaginary numbers are all math concepts often learned in high school algebra. Now imagine determined fourth, fifth or sixth graders quietly working through these concepts on their own. This is exactly what you would see if you peeked into many Kumon Centers.
As a learning program based on ability, rather than age or grade, Kumon Instructors across North America are helping children learn without limits by inspiring them to reach heights they never imagined possible. It is common to see children in Kumon Centers studying math and/or reading material two to three years above their school grade level.
