MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Alabama Gas Corp. says its natural gas
prices will probably be lower by winter.
Alagasco President Dudley Reynolds said he expects Alagasco to
lower its rates, but he's not sure how big the reduction could be.
Prices for natural gas paid by residential customers of Alabama
Gas Corp. have dipped about 7 percent since June 2008. In
comparison, wholesale gas prices have fallen by about 70 percent
since then.
The wholesale cost of gas has plummeted since the summer of
2008, in part because of reduced demand in the recession.
A spokesman for the Public Service Commission, which regulates
Alagasco and other utilities, says three commissioners who oversee
the agency are frustrated that the residential cost of natural gas
has fallen little, and not at all for most of this year, even as
wholesale costs have plunged nationwide.

A Russian court on Wednesday reopened the trial on embezzlement charges of opposition leader Alexei Navalny, who may face up to a decade in jail if convicted but says the accusations were drawn up by President Vladimir Putin.
The prosecution accuses the 36-year-old, who has emerged as the most charismatic figure in the anti-Putin protest movement, of causing a loss of $500,000 (385,000 euros) to a regional government while acting as an advisor in a timber deal.
The trial, held about 900 kilometres (560 miles) from Moscow in the northern city of Kirov, opened last week but was quickly adjourned after Navalny's defence said they needed more time to study the case.
It is the latest trial in post-Soviet Russia to be denounced by the opposition as a political act of revenge by Putin, following the jailings of anti-Kremlin tycoon Mikhail Khodorkovsky and members of the radical punk group Pussy Riot.
During Wednesday's hearing, attended by around a hundred journalists and opposition activists, Navalny's defence called for the case to be sent back to the prosecution, citing a litany of violations committed by the investigators, and arguing that the final indictment contains conflicting information.
"Our demands are reasonable," Navalny, dressed in jeans and a shirt with rolled-up shirts, later told reporters during a court recess. "The case cannot be heard in its current state, it is raw."
But Navalny, who is himself a lawyer, appeared in a less jovial mood than the week before, when he joked and took pictures of the proceedings with his phone, as he followed the proceedings after travelling up on the sleeper train from Moscow.
A total of five probes are now aimed at the opposition leader, who if he is even given a suspended sentence will be banned from ever standing for office.
"I will grin and bear it. One day we will get even for all of them at once," Navalny wrote on his popular blog last week.
In an editorial published in the daily Vedomosti newspaper on Wednesday, Khodorkovsky, who is serving his second jail term in a prison colony in northern Karelia region, voiced support for Navalny.
"Political motivation is clear" in Navalny's case, he wrote.
"In an honest and fair court, these charges would turn out to be baseless."
Former finance minister Alexei Kudrin has also spoken out, saying last week that the trial would hurt Russia because the charges "question the foundations of market relations in Russia" and hark back to the Soviet planned economy.
The head of the timber company involved in the case, Pyotr Ofitserov, has gone on trial with Navalny on the same charges.
Navalny's team has posted his entire chargesheet online and insists all the accusations are politically motivated.
The spokesman of the powerful Investigative Committee, Vladimir Markin, bluntly acknowledged last week that Navalny was specially targeted for investigation because of his repeated "teasing" of the Kremlin.
But media loyal to the Kremlin have gone on the offensive, with polls suggesting that public support for Navalny is now waning.
"The money stolen by Navalny was enough to build 30 hockey pitches or to repair five kilometres of highway," Rossiya 24 state television claimed on the first day of the trial.
Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov meanwhile lamented to state television on Monday that "we have no (opposition) leaders who are ready to take responsibility".
State pollsters VTsIOM found in a survey published Tuesday that 51 percent of Russians had "negative" feelings about Navalny, 20 percent more than the same time last year.
Nevertheless, the poll demonstrated growing awareness of Navalny due to his high-profile trial. Fifty-three percent said they knew who Navalny was -- compared with 37 percent in a different survey last month.

footing on ice near the bottom of the course and piled into a
safety fence en masse.
The townies raced first, with Sean Beale and Sox, of
Queenstown, leading the field home.
The country competitorsthen had the added challenge of
whistling their working dogs up and down the steep course.
Hayden Ross and Gem, of Nokomai Station, took line honours.

The introduction of DITA and XML-based documentation has changed the way we can deliver content to end-users. XML makes possible the integration of a multitude of applications to improve the delivery of content to users. Erie Insurance's goal was to provide users with full-text search of multiple document types, presented as Web search results. An automated publishing solution that included our authoring tool, content management system, and SharePoint 2010 would act as the infrastructure to meet this goal. This would allow the company to move away from document-centric publishing to deliver content in discrete topics that provide targeted results for users, thereby saving them time and improving overall efficiency.

How do we take users of online help systems to the topics that contain the information they need? Context sensitivity makes this easy to do when we create online help for software, but how do we create "context sensitivity" for hardware? More broadly, how do we connect the "real" world and the "virtual" online world in order to bridge the two, especially as "mobile" becomes more and more common? In this webinar, we'll look at three technologies for doing that. None are tech comm tools per se, but all offer a lot of potential for tech comm.

Male inmate accused of assaulting woman in cell
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) – A man has been charged with sexually assaulting a female inmate after the two were placed in the same jail cell alone on an Indian reservation in Arizona, federal court documents show.
Emmanuel Burnette was jailed Saturday at the White Mountain Apache Detention Center on tribal charges of assault and being under the influence of alcohol when the incident occurred. He now is charged federally with two counts of engaging in a sexual act with a woman against her will. He's scheduled to appear in court Friday in Flagstaff.
The episode highlights what has become a cause of concern at tribal jails on Indian reservations.
Many tribal jails are decades old and face issues with overcrowding, unsanitary and unsafe conditions, and are plagued by staffing shortages, according to a 2011 report by the U.S. Department of the Interior Inspector General. It's unclear what led correctional officers at the White Mountain Apache jail to have Burnette share a cell with a female.
Tribal officials did not immediately return messages left Thursday by The Associated Press. The FBI and the federal prosecutor declined to comment on the case.
Tribes have begun to take on the building and renovation of jails on their reservations but generally rely on the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs to staff them. The White Mountain Apache Tribe operates the detention center in Whiteriver under a contract with the BIA. The tribe was awarded nearly $950,000 in stimulus funding in 2009 to renovate the adult and juvenile detention centers, but federal data shows the project still remains in the design stage.
The tribe's jail is one of 14 in Indian Country that accounted for more than half of all inmates held in tribal jails at midyear 2011, according to another federal report.
New jails are scheduled to open this year in the Navajo Nation towns of Tuba City in northeastern Arizona and Crownpoint in northwestern New Mexico. Jails on the reservations currently can hold a combined 50 people, which means that hardly any inmates serve out full sentences.
Tribal jails generally can hold people only for misdemeanor crimes that carry a maximum penalty of a year in jail. Law enforcement on the Fort Apache reservation typically deals with domestic violence, sexual assaults induced by alcohol and drugs and a growing problem with violent crime among juveniles, authorities have said. Major crimes are referred to federal prosecutors.
According to an FBI agent's affidavit, a video at the White Mountain Apache jail showed the 21-year-old Burnette lying down beside the 23-year-old woman and engaging in a sexual act before corrections officers entered the cell and separated them. The woman told authorities that Burnette said to her that "it's OK, it's OK to have you, they put me in here."
The woman, who was being held on tribal charges of public intoxication, didn't say anything to Burnette but later told authorities that she tried to push him away and that she was scared not only of him but the corrections officers, the affidavit states.
Burnette told an FBI agent that he was moved to the cell with the woman after he was banging his head on the door of another cell and kicked it several times. Burnette said he knew what he did with the woman was wrong, according to the affidavit.
Burnette has been appointed a federal public defender. She did not return calls for comment.

AbstractTraumatic head and neck injuries account for 16-33% of all war-related injuries and are a leading cause of mortality upon evacuation to a definitive care setting. This application is focused on treating one of the most important determinants of outcome from severe head injury, the degree and duration of elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). The main objective of this proposal is to continue the development of the inspiratory impedance threshold device (ITD); an operationally useful and effective device initially designed to counteract the effects of severe hypotension after the development of hemorrhagic shock, heat shock, and dehydration. New research has discovered that the ITD has a marked effect on reducing ICP. When ICPs are decreased in spontaneously breathing patients during inspiration through an ITD or when using a modified ITD called an intrathoracic pressure regulator (ITPR) in non-breathing patients, the small vacuum created in the thorax enhances venous return to the heart thereby enhancing cardiac output and decreasing ICP. The successful development and deployment of a new device designed to immediately decrease elevated ICP or prevent the onset of elevated ICP following traumatic brain injury is an important advance in treating battlefield casualties, a major cause of death for American soldiers.

United, 12 points clear at the top of table with seven games to play, are striding towards a record-extending 20th title while the Potters struggle at the opposite end.
Sir Alex Ferguson's men did suffer defeat to rivals Manchester City in their derby last Monday but Pulis sees that as a mere blip.
He said: "I think you have got to recognise the strength they have got. You have got to recognise you are competing against overwhelming odds in a lot of respects.
"That is why they are champions-elect - they have got the best team and the best players.
"We have to pick a team we think will work as hard as they possibly can to nullify their strengths, and also give us an opportunity to compete at the other end of the pitch as well."
Alarm bells have started ringing at the Britannia Stadium after a dismal run of just one win in 13 league games.
But in a 21-year managerial career that has taken him through the divisions, Pulis feels he is equipped to deal with the challenge.
"I think publicity-wise it is the hardest time I've had - but I have had tougher times with teams that haven't been as good as this one, and you've had to eke out results," said Pulis, who has managed six clubs.
"But everything that goes with the Premier League is magnified and multiplied enormously. We have to concentrate on ourselves and not take too much notice of what is going on around us."

This study examined the relationship between consensusderived and mechanically-derived assessment center ratings using a sample of 110 police candidates. It was determined that the two sets of dimension ratings were highly correlated (medianr=.83). Further, the mechanically-derived and the consensus-derived assessment ratings both correlated with the overall assessment ratings (OAR) at .71. It was estimated that the organization in this study could save $6137.92 a year, and $36.89 per assessee by eliminating the team meeting (consensus decision-making).

Acting Senior Sergeant Steve Watt, of Queenstown, said the
resort's CCTV system was ''well utilised'' on New Year's Eve,
when staff watched the cameras for signs of trouble.
''That provided excellent results and we were able to
identify a number of situations that were becoming volatile
... and we were able to deploy staff in a timely fashion
before anything developed further.''
The 12-camera, $150,000 system was installed around the
resort's central business district shortly before the 2012
Winter Festival and since then the network has gained four
more cameras.
Aside from assisting during busy periods such as the festival
and New Year's Eve, the system has been used to identify
vehicles and locate people in central Queenstown.
He had used it to help with vehicle accident investigations
and it was also helpful when people ''simply could not
remember'' details of an incident.
''The majority of people'' now expected there to be cameras
in central areas, he said, and this also acted as a good
''deterrence factor''.
Police staff required to watch over prisoners when they are
kept overnight at the station were also tasked with watching
over the CCTV system.
''We'd like to set up a system to man them [the cameras] on a
Thursday, Friday, Saturday [nights],'' Acting Snr Sgt Watt
said, and ''that's something we're investigating''.
A name, residential address, and (preferably residential) telephone number is required from readers who comment on ODT Online. These details will not be visible to site visitors.

Foil Wrapped Roasted Turkey10 PT6H Ingredients: 8 to 24 pound turkey, thawed Vegetable oil Stuffing (optional) Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil
Reynolds Kitchens tip
Depending on the weight of your turkey, roast your turkey for the following time:
- 8-12 lbs: 1½ - 2¼ hours
- 12-16 lbs: 2¼ - 2¾ hours
- 16-20 lbs: 2¾ - 3¼ hours
- 20-24 lbs: 3¼ - 3¾ hours
- 24-28 lbs: 3¾ - 5 hours
- 28-32 lbs: 5 - 5½ hours
8 to 24 pound turkey, thawed
Vegetable oil
Stuffing (optional)
Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil
PREHEAT oven to 450°F. Remove neck and giblets from turkey; rinse turkey and pat dry. If desired, loosely stuff turkey. Brush with oil.
TEAR off a sheet of Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil 2 1/2 times longer than turkey. Place turkey lengthwise in center of foil sheet.
CLOSE foil loosely by overlapping the ends. Turn up short sides of foil to hold in juices. Do not seal airtight. Place foil wrapped turkey in roasting pan at least 2 inches deep. Insert meat thermometer through foil into thickest part of inner thigh, not touching bone.
ROAST turkey until meat thermometer reads 180°F. For approximate roasting times, see chart above. For stuffed turkey, add 30 minutes to roasting time. To brown turkey, open and turn back foil 30 minutes before roasting is finished. For easy slicing, cover turkey with foil and let stand 15 minutes.
Estimate 1 pound per person for generous servings with leftovers. *Large amounts of drippings will collect in the roasting pans when roasting large turkeys. Check the turkey 1 hour before the end of the roasting time and remove excess drippings, if necessary, with a baster or ladle. At the end of the roasting time, remove enough drippings to safely lift roasting pan from the oven.

Why do you think you see larger intervals between write activity with the optimization from COUCHDB-767? Have you measured the time it takes to open the extra FD? In my tests that was a sub-millisecond operation, but maybe you've uncovered something else. Oh, now I understand - you're saying that some of the iostat reports come back empty.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Dec 01st, 2001
Running Time: 77
Director: Jerome Tanner
Company: Legend Video
Cast: Erik Everhard, Dillion Day, Belladonna, Nikki Fairchild, Jewel De'Nyle, Joel Lawrence, Zana, Dale DaBone, Melissa West
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Feature
Hardcore action with a couples theme.
In between all the hokum about men, women and relationships, this is one hell of a hot video. The story line is a sort of "When Harry Fucked Sally," following a group of women who put a man on trial for screwing their friend and then not calling back. Tracing the root of the problem to the very dawn of male/female relations, in the Garden of Eden, the conclusion seems to be that the two sexes simply don't think anywhere near alike.
Along the road to this astounding revelation, there's quite a lot of incredible sex. Belladonna and Joel Lawrence kick things off with the scene that sets the plot in motion. Round and luscious in all the right places, Belladonna is absolutely amazing. On hands and knees, she gyrates while she sucks, her lovely breasts swinging ever so slightly with each move of her shoulders. This sequence also has a nice build up, moving gracefully from gentle foreplay to hardcore action.
First-rate lighting, makeup and editing serve the performers well, highlighting the beauty of Melissa West's creamy white skin and the intensity of Jewel De'Nyle's magnificent eyes. A top notch production from end to end.

"Words are just a way we communicate. Images are a way we communicate. And I couldn't figure out why they had to be in different baskets."
"In the West, particularly in America because it's such a young country, you get the sense that so much comes in to America and is re-fashioned and regurgitated without really understanding what it is. In other countries they know about the history of the thing that they have, and maybe that's holding them back in some ways. So perhaps their problem is not knowing what they know...There are so many stereotypes about people and cultures and ideas that have been translated into the visual through black collectibles, and sometimes that's hurt me in the past because that's how people see me before they even get to know me, because of all this media material..."

I am given an expression using parantheses and +'s, such as (((a+b)+c)+(d+e)).
I need to find the parse tree of this, and then print the list form of this parse tree like: [ [ [a, b], c ], [d, e] ]
I was thinking I'd use something like ast, then ast2list. However, due to my not fully understanding these, I am repeatedly getting syntax errors. This is what I have:
import ast
import parser
a = ast.parse("(((a+b)+c)+(d+e))", mode='eval')
b = parser.ast2list(a)
Could anyone guide me in the right direction? Thanks.

I wish to align a character in HTML to the tops of the characters next to it. The css vertical-align attribute seems to be what I want, but I'm having some trouble.
vertical-align: text-top doesn't seem to do what I want, but I thought it should from reading the spec.
Currently, I'm using
vertical-align: 10% which is a reasonable solution, except that I have to calculate the proper number on each platform to get it to look right. Browser detecting to set the value to one that I think is probably right seems like the wrong solution.
To see an example of this, see an example of it in use, in the c in McPherrin.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Urinary Tract Infections in Teens and Adults
Topic Overview
Your doctor will ask for a sample of your urine. It is tested to see if it has germs that cause bladder infections.
If you have infections often, you may need extra testing to find out why.
Antibiotics prescribed by your doctor will usually cure a bladder infection. It may help to drink lots of water and other fluids and to urinate often, emptying your bladder each time.
If your doctor prescribes antibiotics, take the pills exactly as you are told. Do not stop taking them just because you feel better. You need to finish taking them all so that you do not get sick again.
You may be able to help prevent these infections.
- Take time to empty your bladder as much as possible when you urinate.
- If you are a sexually active woman, make it a point to urinate shortly after having sex.
- If you are a woman past menopause who is having repeated UTIs, using vaginal estrogen may help.

'Titanic,' the Musical, Is Finally Launched, and the News Is It's Still Afloat
By BEN BRANTLEY
Published: April 24, 1997
The vultures had been salivating over this one for months. How could they not have been?
All those stories of production-freezing technical glitches in previews; the reported rumors that the show might not even open; and, beyond all that, the mere fact of a $10 million musical called ''Titanic,'' a singing-and-dancing rendition of the century's most famous maritime disaster: yes, it all seemed to portend a memorably bloody chapter in the history of flops on Broadway.
Theater disaster cultists will have to wait, however, as will headline writers armed with scalpels and the obvious puns. ''Titanic,'' which opened on schedule last night at the Lunt-Fontanne Theater, doesn't sink. Unfortunately, that is also probably the most exciting thing that can be said about it.
At its worst, this extremely ambitious, er, vehicle is simply hokey and stereotyped; at its best, it's an admirably efficient piece of narrative, able to squeeze in a vast roster of characters, assorted chunks of technological and historical information, slews of statistics and themes ranging from class conflict to human hubris, all with minimal confusion.
Yet the show, with songs by Maury Yeston and a book by Peter Stone, never seems to leave port. Under the guidance of the British director Richard Jones, with technically astonishing sets by Stewart Laing, ''Titanic'' fails to capitalize on the two obvious trump cards its subject has dealt it: sentimentality and suspense.
It's a perversely cool work, cerebral without being particularly imaginative or insightful. Most often, it feels like a singing blueprint, still waiting to achieve the third dimension.
Like the builders of the ship that gives the show its name, the talents behind ''Titanic'' have worked hard to create something of epic scope and technological wonder. Few of the metaphoric implications of this fatal ocean voyage, an endless source of historic and literary contemplation since it took place in 1912, have been neglected.
Song after song points out what the liner represented to its creators, staff and passengers: it is, as the lyrics say repeatedly, a ''ship of dreams,'' embodying diverse hopes of progress both social and scientific.
The show is indeed masterly in establishing the different forms this collective fantasy takes, from the vision of its designer, Thomas Andrews (Michael Cerveris), who compares the ship to things like the Sistine Chapel and the great pyramids, to the immigrants in steerage who imagine new possibilities of self-advancement.
Mr. Laing's ingenious sets and costumes mirror precisely the musical's thematic patterns while meticulously charting the progress of the voyage. With its series of sliding panels that reveal different tiers of the set, the show has a sophisticated look that is all about stratification, even representing the three passenger classes simultaneously. The captain's bridge floats above all this, while L.C.D. panels on either side of the stage state the time, date, even the latitude and longitude.
Much of the scenic mood is sterile, however, conjured by painted flat scrims that often resemble an architect's drawings. And you can feel the audience waiting for a chance to applaud the scenery, for the visual opulence of a ''Sunset Boulevard.'' It comes only infrequently, most notably with an appearance of the ship's crimson smoking room, which will later provide the occasion for the show's most apocalyptic special effects.
And while the musical impressively creates an immense gallery of clearly established characters, they rarely transcend their symbolic or plot functions. Most of them are based on real people, the same ones described in Walter Lord's brief, compelling ''Night to Remember'' (1955), yet they never achieve the hauntingly specific identity and complexity that Mr. Lord's book was able to evoke with only a few details.
It's not that the cast isn't more than competent. But in fixing the characters as points on a social graph, the show almost invariably opts for the most basic stereotypes. J. Bruce Ismay (David Garrison), the managing director of the White Star line of ships to which the Titanic belonged, is here a smarmy, arrogant villain of a businessman, urging Capt. E. J. Smith (John Cunningham), to take the vessel to dangerous speeds.
Mr. Cerveris portrays the ship's designer with a febrile manner and intense, biting diction that bring to mind a brainy B-movie mad scientist. Mr. Cunningham, a first-rate actor, seems to get lost behind the captain's beard. And most of the passengers (Becky Ann Baker as a rich, steamroller feminist is an exception) aren't allowed to be much more than participants in a history pageant.
Mr. Yeston, who did the appealing score for ''Nine,'' seems less confident here. There is evidence of intelligence and variety in the music (which often has a ''Sweeney Todd''-meets-''Jaws'' ominousness), but very little emotional pull, barring some full-throated anthemic chorales.
There is one song that manages to meld an affecting and vivid sense of the individual with the work's broader thematic sweep: a duet in which the ship's radio operator and one of its stokers (Martin Moran and Brian d'Arcy James, both excellent) sing of their respective obsessions with modern technology and the girl waiting at home.

My LO (14 wks) has switched formula a few times, due to what was initially reflux issues. Poor guy would be spitting up a LOT at every feeding. Eventually the pediatrician switched him to soy, but there didn't seem to be a specific reason for that - it was just said that soy might work better than some of the higher end stuff they put LO on (Alimentum) that didn't seem to drastically change anything. LO was prescribed Zantac as well, but we stopped giving him that once it seemed that the soy formula seemed to be a good fit and he wasn't spitting up quite so much.
The last few days have been ridiculous here as far as spit-up is concerned. I've had to wash pretty much everything the poor guy has touched (sheets and mattress pads, my clothes, the cover to his bouncy seat, etc - as well as having to change his clothes 5 times yesterday) because no matter how much time has gone between feedings, the spitting up is back. Now it's not so much the amount he's spitting up, it's the frequency. It doesn't seem to be new formula, either - it's that gross curdled stuff.
I'm holding him up for at least a half hour after feedings - sometimes even longer - but that doesn't seem to matter. The minute he's down napping/being changed, or even being held (so position isn't mattering much), the spit up comes.
The last time I was at the pediatrician's office due to constipation issues (which I'm told is very common with soy formula), the doc told me that I was free to try something else like Gentlease if I wanted to, but because the formula change usually results in a funky digestive system for a few weeks afterwards, I decided to just keep him on the soy. It's easier to just feed him a bit of prune juice every day (recommended by the doctor) rather than switch the formula.
Now I'm not so sure if I should be keeping him on the soy. Does this sound like a formula issue? Or could it be that it's time to put him back on the Zantac? I was under the impression that Zantac didn't stop him from spitting up - it just made it non-painful/more comfortable when he does spit up. Am I wrong there? This might also be a typical baby kind of thing - I'm a FTM so this is all pretty new to me. But from what I know/remember from being around babies my whole life, I don't remember most of them spitting up this frequently, sometimes hours after a feeding.
Thoughts? What would you do? (Thanks!)

Released: Apr 01st, 1998
Running Time: 110
Director: Jim Holliday
Company: VCA Platinum Plus
Cast: Peter North, Shayla LaVeaux, Eric Price, Malitia, Krista Maze, Sahara Sands, Laura Palmer, Nina Hartley, Missy (I), Caressa Savage, Jill Kelly, T.T. Boy, Jake Steed, Anthony (I), Julie Rage, Kimberly Kupps, Veronica Hart, Mark Davis, Kim Kataine, Stacy Valentine
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Feature
Jill Kelly, Julie Rage, and Stacy Valentine command an army of blondes in this tongue-in-pussy look at the wold world of fashion. Missy keeps her clothes on way too much, playing the hardass ms. Beutch, which the giggly models like to pronounce as either "bitch" or "butch." She investigates the fashion team only briefly in one orgiastic scene.
A scary monster runs throughout this video as a theme, frightening the pants off the gals. When Jill Kelly attempts to seduce the "pussy-eating vampire," she's disappointed to find that the creature has no mouth - but she goes for it with a dildo anyway, in a fabulous solo performance.
Don't assume that the "LA" in the title refers to a certain coastal city. It is patiently explained by Julie Rage that the acronym stands for "Lickable Ass," a concept she then demonstrates with Krista Maze. Peter North, T.T. Boy, Jake Steed and Stacy Valentine join them for a fuckfest on turquoise bed sheets which includes some d.p. action: Stacy gets two groaning men, while Julie gets a dildo shoved up her ass.
With plenty of foxy blond babes enthusiastically performing all manner of sexual gymnastics with boys, dildos, monsters, and one another, this video has lots to offer. The dialogue is reasonably entertaining - the comment that porn critics are "scary and stupid" did not go unnoticed. Very pretty box cover design.

The Greatest American Hero: Dope writer-director joins, pilot in development
Phil Lord and Chris Miller have nabbed Dope's Rick Famuyiwa's to helm The Greatest American Hero remake's pilot episode…
It's been a year and a bit since we heard anything about Phil Lord and Chris Miller's reboot of The Greatest American Hero TV series (it's a comedy about a school teacher endowed with unwanted superpowers, if you're unfamiliar).
Back in September 2014, we were told that The LEGO Movie and Jump Street duo, Lord and Miller, were working on a pilot episode with Tawnia McKiernan and Rodney Rothman.
Now, we've heard that Fox is definitely still investing in a pilot episode, but the creative team has a changed a little. Lord, Miller and McKiernan (TV director, and daughter of the original series' creator Steven J. Cannell) will stay on, but writer Rodney Rothman has been replaced by Rick Famuyiwara.
Rick Famuyiwara is a writer and director, best known for his work on this year's crime drama/comedy feature, Dope. He's also written and directed such films as Our Family Wedding, Brown Sugar and The Wood over the course of his career.
Fox will be hoping that Famuyiwara can help get this reboot off the ground at long last. He'll write and direct the pilot episode, with Lord, Miller and McKiernan on executive producing duties.
A casting call for roles in the pilot episode is said to be going out soon.
More as we hear it.
PREVIOUSLY (September 2014)
If you're an intellectual property, which you're probably not if you're reading this article, one of the best things that can happen to you is being snapped up by Chris Miller and Phil Lord.
Quickly becoming one of cinemas hottest properties, the dynamic duo have already resurrected 21 Jump Street, helmed its sequel and built The LEGO Movie. They're on an incredible run.
Now, the latest project to be rejuvenated by Lord and Miller is The Greatest American Hero. The 1981 comic sci-fi drama is based on an unwitting superhero discovering their powers.
Fox is funding a pilot from Lord and Miller, which we've got a feeling could be absolutely hilarious.
Their protagonist will be inner-city school teacher Isaac (a different teacher to William Katt's in the original), who dislikes his new-found superheroic responsibilities and has to improvise with his powers after losing the instructions for his suit. Count us very much in.
Here's a montage of clips from the original, set to its theme tune, to give you a taste...

If Rome Wins 2024 Summer Olympics, Vatican Could Host Competitions
Major sporting events could be held at the Vatican if Rome wins its bid to host the Summer Olympics in 2024.
Pope Francis, a keen soccer fan, is reported to be enthusiastic about the idea. He is expected to meet the head of Italy's National Olympic Committee, Giovanni Malago, and other officials at the Vatican on Dec. 19 after a Mass to commemorate the committee's 100th anniversary
Cardinal Jose Saraiva Martins, former head of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints, said he believed Francis would back plans to hold events such as archery in the Vatican gardens.
He told the Florence daily La Nazione that events could also be staged at the pope's summer palace at Castel Gandolfo outside Rome.
"It seems like a good idea, I think the pope will approve," Saraiva Martins said.

DNC Security Threats: Baby Strollers, Magic Markers, and, Yes, Fruit
They must've heard of Intel Dan's RNC banana scare.
Early last week, Intel Dan learned the hard way that a banana — in fact all fruit — were considered dangerous projectiles by the Republican National Convention's organizers. Well, it looks like the Democrat's own shindig next week in Charlotte may be an even tighter ship, with a much longer list of no-nos, according to the AP:
- Bottled water and cans of soda (they must've hired the TSA to do security)
- Socks and scarves
- Magic markers (no sniffing, please)
- Baby strollers
- Non-service pets
- And any "container or object of sufficient weight to be used as a projectile," which likely includes, yes, fruit, and maybe even your trusty iPhone or shoe.
No mention of acid-filled eggs, however.

Heavy Rain gets toned down edition for France
European game ratings body PEGI's rated a toned down version of Heavy Rain. The Quantic Dream thriller was given a PEGI 18 (BBFC 15) when it launched last February. Now the new version, Heavy Rain Edition Modifiée, has been given a PEGI 16. This new version does feature "realistic looking violence, nudity of a sexual nature, and strong language," however. Sony's told Eurogamer it's a French-only thing, though.

I would note that the case as posted is broken: spurious wakeups are allowed, so theoretically it could return immediately, without even visiting the deadline handler. Condition variables are meaningful only when they mediate waits for data of some kind. Restating the case like this seems more useful to me. (let ((mutex (sb-thread:make-mutex)) (cvar (sb-thread:make-waitqueue)) (data nil)) ;; This thread will produce value for us. (run-writer-thread mutex cvar (lambda (x) (setf data x))) (handler-bind ((sb-sys:deadline-timeout #'(lambda (c) (sb-thread:with-recursive-lock (mutex) (setf data (append data (list :deadline))) (sb-thread:condition-broadcast cvar)) (sb-sys:defer-deadline 10.0 c)))) (sb-sys:with-deadline (:seconds 0.1) (let (got) (sb-thread:with-mutex (mutex) (loop until data do (sb-thread:condition-wait cvar mutex) (setf got (pop data))) got))) I suspect the right thing is to consider deadlines during condition-wait as wakeups. If there is no data to be had, a correctly written CONDITION-WAIT loop will re-enter the wait, and the deadline will be signalled by DECODE-TIMEOUT. The handler will defer the deadline, which will cause another extension -- etc. I _think_ this should be doable in most imaginable condition-wait implementations. > At the moment that happens to work (i.e. return) on Linux with SBCL's > Futex based implementation. There's still a lost-wakeup bug in that > implementation and fixing that bug in the trivial wait would disallow I need more coffeee. What's the lost-wakeup bug? Cheers, -- Nikodemus

I disagree. I completely understand White's reasoning. If the Casino wants to change their relationship with White as far as gambling (which is business for the Casino)... then White can very well choose to change his relationship with the Casino in regards to MMA events.
My insurance company is the same way. For instance... we spent thousands of dollars and brought in hundreds of people for big conventions/seminars/events in a certain hotel numerous times. After a few years of this... the Owner of the Hotel was approached about how our Insurance company could help his business, which was actually at no cost to the Hotel itself. The Owner didn't even grant us a simple 10 minute sit down in order to explain what we could offer. We explained that all we wanted to do is sit down for 10 minutes to see if what we could offer was even a fit for his company. He refused to meet with us. Needless to say we withdrew every upcoming event from that hotel and scheduled them at a place that actually already does business with us.
Even if the owner would have sat down with us, and decided that it wasn't right for his company... then nothing would have changed. However, the simple fact that he refused to even sit down with us for 10 minutes, after all of the money we brought into his business... it's a matter of respect.
In Dana's point of view... not only is he bringing in great business for the Casino with his MMA cards... it's also apparent that he brings in great business for the Casino with his own gambling, eating, and tips. The Casino repays him by cutting his credit line by 50%? That's a slap in the face and complete disrespect. I'm not surprised at all that he now refuses to put on any more shows there and bring them any more money.

From Peter King's MMQB
Defensive Player of the Week
Aubrayo Franklin, NT, San Francisco.
Now, you look at Franklin's stat line -- three tackles, one sack, one tackle for loss -- and you say, "Come now. There had to be 75 guys in the league with better defensive days.'' Franklin's game is classic proof that stats for defensive linemen are 90-percent meaningless. Franklin was a regular in the Colts' backfield, leading San Francisco's stout front that held Indy to 61 rushing yards on 21 carries, a 2.9-yard average. "That's a great defense,'' said Joseph Addai afterward. It was led by a no-name noseman in his seventh year from Tennessee, with a surprisingly swift move, at 317 pounds.

|[taglibs] How about splitting up the resource bundle?
|Fri, 08 Oct 2010 01:29:03 GMT
Now that we require 1.5, I refactored Resources to use varargs rather than having multiple methods taking combinations of parameters. However, now that it is greatly simplified, i was wondering whether we should replace the single resource bundle containing messages for all implementations with smaller ones associated with each tag or tag library. For example, moving the messages for core to o.a.t.s.tag.common.core.Resources.properties or for <c:import> to o.a.t.s.tag.common.core.importSupport.properties Thoughts?

When treating patients with intractable bone pain secondary to bone metastasis from cancer, we have found that the injection of 2% lidocaine directly into the metastatic bone lesion will give prompt pain relief to some patients. Those who respond will then get prolonged pain relief lasting from 24 to 72 hours when reinjected with a mixture of 2% lidocaine and penicillin G procaine, 600,000 unitsμL. Lesions of the spine should not be treated with this method.
