>> these are real, anderson. >> i'm sure they are. are you sure -- i don't want to accuse your children. are you sure the twins didn't steal this necklace? >> no. the twins have never seen the necklace. the necklace stays at work in a vault hermetically sealed. they have never even seen the handcuffs. >> when was the last time you remember, have you retraced your steps? computers, his diary and his cell phone. >> mary, i want to ask you about -- i know this is an awful memory that lives with you. but the suicide note that was allegedly shane's. i know that you didn't think that that was real. >> yes, i retraced my steps, anderson, and i have even put up a flyer all around headline news and cnn asking for tips and there is a reward for the necklace. >> on twitter today, as i said, you did accuse me of the theft, and while i do find -- >> i didn't accuse you. i just made a suggestion. >> you suggested it. >> i just threw the bread upon the water to see what would bite. you're turning red. >> no, no, for the record, i find it very fetching. i did not take it. do you have any other suspects? >> don't try to throw me off the scent. don't try to throw me off you, anderson. i have already told you, geragos and toobin, toobin is too much of a straight guy to wear a pair what was it about that note that made you think this is not something shane wrote? >> well, first, he started off the very first paragraph is thanking them for allowing him to succeed. that is incongruent with someone who hated the company he was working for and asking him to compromise u.s. security. and then the notecontinued on.
8:01 pm
of handcuff necklaces. he would never think to steal like you. now, what about geragos? out of the three of you, i would say that he would be the type to actually steal the necklace. >> i knew you were going to accuse him. >> although you're pretty daring. look at his face. if that doesn't scream guilt. >> where do you get a handcuff necklace, at a regular jewelry store or an s & m dungeon? >> what is that? the memories didn't match our memories. the sentences he gave to his brothers which are his best friends were incongruent with our son. >> that is the singapore technology company that shane was working for. you say he hated his job. did he talk to you about his work? >> every week we talked about his work not in specifics but, you know, him planning to quit, what's an s & m dungeon? >> what will you do if you find the perpetrator of this heinous crime? >> if i find the thief, they will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, and i plan to personally put these on him. >> i got to ask this question. what has more sentimental value, your handcuff necklace or your giving his 60-day notice. i didn't understand hit work. he's a doctor. he is way beyond me. but we did talk about how dissatisfied he was and then we started talking about how his life was being threatened and that was after january. he really felt he was in danger. >> did he talk about why he felt threatened?
8:02 pm
barrette? >> well, the barrette's lucey's, my daughter. >> oh, that's nice. so the barrette. >> i would have to go with the barrette. hey, hey, hey, don't ask me anything else about what i wear, because next thing i know i'm going to turn around and lucey's barrette's going to be gone, anderson. anderson cooper. >> we're going to stay on it, nancy grace. thank you. good luck to you. >> anderson, thank you, friend. >> thank you, friend. >> let me just say on the record that i promise cnn and "ac 360" will devote all of its many resources to this search and i did he give you any detail about what he was working on or what threats he felt he was receiving? >> he's told actually both mary and i that he was dealing with some chinese engineers that would come into the room with him and here he was the lead of the team and then they would speak to him in english but then they would speak around him and personally, i will stay on this story until the handcuffs are returned to their rightful owner or at least until tomorrow's "ridiculist." that does it for us. we'll be back one hour from now. another edition of "360" 10:00 p.m. eastern. erin "out front" starts now. >> investigators racing to texas tonight to determine if a high-speed chase with police is connecting to the murder. plus, assault weapons ban standoff. in mander in. and it concerned him so much that he actually started taking manderin. he had cds in his room. he told his girlfriend that he was going to take it. he told us he was going to take manderin. >> i know you said that the company that shane says he was working with, it's a very powerful chinese company with a big presence in this country. and he was working with them on -- again, you use all the acronyms i don't understand what all of them mean. basically something that could eventually have a use in some sort of military radar fashion. right? >> yes.
8:03 pm
joe biden versus harry reed. democrat versus democrat tonight. japan and guam right now with its missiles. would kim jung un do it? it's go "out front." >> good evening, everyone. we have breaking news with the that's correct. actually, moc is actually -- it has civilian applications as well. but it has tremendous military applications. >> so you think your son may have found out too much or may have indicated that he was going to -- when he talks about national security concerns, go to talk to someone in the u.s. government or something like that might have happened and that's when you think they decided to kill him? >> i think shane actually had the recipes, very technical recipes for this chemical that search for the gunman who killed colorado's prison chief. investigators are headed to wies counsil texas. and they're going there to see whether a man who led police today on a high-speed car chase is the same person who killed tom clemens on tuesday night. left his car and opened fire on police, injuring a deputy. in wise county texas and, ed, were very sensitive. and they were asking him for it. he realized who he was dealing with which was the company and realizing that's when he was saying i'm so naive. you know, he thought he was involved in a civilian, you know, program and he realized that now it's getting out into people that really shouldn't have access to this. >> they say to the united states as they have, there was a congressional investigation into them in 2012. this story is done on television about the company talking about whether they pose a security risk to this country, whether they're engaged in spying. they deny that. when they were asked about the relationship with ime, they said, i want to quote them, "we do not do military equipment or technology nor do we discuss it with partners." do you think they're just blatantly lying?
8:04 pm
why do police think this suspect might be related to come clemens horrible murder? >> well, the car that the suspect in this particular case was driving was a black, boxy cadillac. it's interesting that this car had two different colorado license plates, as well. so, obviously, that raises suspicion. but what is not clear is whether or not the initial deputies that approached this car, about 35 miles to the northwest of where we are in another county, in >> the thing is, you have to have a complete understanding of what gan is. montague county, had called that car because it matched the description that authorities had been alerted to be on the lookout for. but, regardless, a high-speed chase ensued. it ended just a short distance from where i standed here. the suspect along the way was shooting out of his car window reaching speeds of more than a hundred miles per hour. one deputy was wounded, shot in the chest. but that deputy, we're told, will be okay. nonlife-threatening injuries there. it could be -- they can use words to disguise it about military technology. it's the technology in began and the recipes themselves that are so sensitive that can actually be used in applications for military. >> is there anything that would convince you, and i know it would be a horrible thing, but that this was not murder? >> well, at this point, nothing could convince us because there's not one shred of evidence that points to suicide. everything points to murder including the pathologist's report, shane's external hard drive, the bathroom, the evidence in the bathroom. if we could go back to june and
8:05 pm
but there was a civilian car that was hit by a bullet, as well. burr r but authorities say they do not know the name of the person driving that car. he continued firing, kemt firing at authorities who were surrounding him and then authorities hit him. the suspect has been flown to a hospital in ft. worth texas, not too far away from here where we're told that the suspect is dead on life support and waiting redo it all, we wouldn't -- we're not parents that couldn't accept something like this. do you think we would go to all this trouble to just say our son didn't commit suicide? this is taken over our life. we're fighting for justice. we're fighting for our country. no. there is nothing that could be to see if they will harvest his organs. they're still trying to investigate him. >> we're going to be joined by the police in just a moment. the authorities have ruled out it was a random act of violence. they're looking into whether his job had something to do with his said that would convince us otherwise. >> we don't want to minimize anybody that ever lost a son or a daughter due to suicide. that is a horrendous tragedy. but i would say that would be a lot easier to deal with. i mean we can't put this to bed. we know shane was living it. we lived with his statements every week. i've seen the marks on his

clemens made a decision not to allow that man, the saudi arabian national convicted of sex crimes to be transferred back to saudi arabian prison. have you been able to identify any connection or are you looking at a connection between clemens' murder and that particular case? >> we are looking at that particular case. again, looking at all possibilities. and we have to look at were there any motives? were there any threats against mr. clemens? and so certainly, you know, would anybody have a reason or a vendetta? so we're looking at that case. american academy of pediatrics is becoming gay marriage. in the statement they said, children thrive in families that are stable and provide permanent security and the way we do that is through marriage. regardless of whether it's a man and a man or a woman and a woman or a woman and a man. is that wrong? >> i disagree with their statement. there's -- there have been again, haven't received any specific information at this point in time that would cause us to solely focus our efforts on that case. but it certainly is a possibility and we have to, again, look at all avenues. >> all right. thank you very much, undersheriff paula presley for joining us to night. we continue to follow that story until there are answers.

december 14th, 20 minutes after i dropped him off. >> david, i don't get it. i understand it's not that many deaths in the scheme of the country. but i don't get why we can't pass an assault weapons ban. >> we are seeing -- change is coming on this issue. we are seeing it. we're seeing fewer and fewer americans choosing to keep a gun in the home. that is a tremendous breakthrough because all the settlement money from the case against big tobacco. that is nearly one quarter of a trillion. this year alone, the states will get nearly $26 billion. so that money is supposed to go to ending smoking. but it doesn't. of the $26 billion this year, about 1.8% is actually going to go towards prevention. the states use the rest for, well, a whole lot of other stuff. they obviously need the cash desperately. science and all the statistics show that a gun in the home won't protect you against intruders which there aren't very many but does hugely is crease increase accident or suicide by a member in the family. as america is becoming safer in the face of crime, americans are choosing to arm themselves less. change is going to come not from the political system to the country but from the country to the political system. and as more and more americans make a decision, i don't want one for myself because i new york city will receive $625 million this year and has set aside $7.9 million for prevention programs in its '13 budget. states and cities in america say they want smoking to end, but they rely on people smoking to make ends meet. that's an inconvenient truth. mayor bloomberg serious about stopping smoking? he should ban that. fight that battle. piers morgan live starts right now.

erin? >> ed, thank you very much. and now our fourth story "outfront," new threats today from north korea. the north korean military warns the united states that american bases in guam and japan are within striking range of korean missiles. now, could they, would they actually hit american targets? "outfront" tonight, center for stra strategic and international studies. they say good wap. they say japan? what about hawaii? what about american samoa? what about the other islands? >> erin, they have medium range ballistic missile force that is deployed right now, meaning it's operational that has a range of about 1,000 miles. and so they can hit anything within 1,000 miles. we don't know about their targeting capability. but they certainly have the range to do that. beyond that, they're developing other missiles, some of which we've seen them test that can go much farther, 4,000 to 6,000 miles, perhaps even farther. so they're clearly building toward the capability where they can try to threaten every part of the united states where we may have forces or where our allies are around the world.
8:33 pm
>> so victor, when we think about this we've been talking about west coast of the u.s. you think about hawaii, it brings back memories of pearl harbor, another time where it was the easiest place to strike in the pacific was closer to asia in hawaii. should we be taking the north korean threat more seriously? i mean it seems we have a missile defense program the president is rebooting. but are we taking it seriously enough? >> well, i certainly think that the recent set of tests, the missile tests in december and then the nuclear test in february in which they appeared to have advanced their programs has created enough of a concern that i think we are taking it more seriously. last week there was an announcement of our intent to move to put 14 new interceptors, missile defense interceptors up which is a sign that we're taking this quite seriously now. but i think we should. >> all right.

thank you very much, victor. we appreciate you taking the time tonight. and now to a story we've been "outfront" on, the mysterious hanging death of 31-year-old yelled shane todd. he is from montana. but he was found dead in his apartment in singapore. the fbi is now investigating the case. secretary of state john kerry and attorney general eric hold rer asking questions of the singapore government. singapore police say todd committed suicide. todd's parents say it was murder. now shane todd was found dead in his apartment in june just hours after his last day working for a prestigious government research firm. but did his work make him a target? >> reporter: shane todd, 31 years old, had a phd in electrical engineering and by all accounts a very bright future. he was working for the institute of micro electronics or ime, a prominent singapore research facility. his project involved creating faster, more powerful semiconductors. his parents say that in his last
8:35 pm
few months he was stressed, even expressing fear for his life. he had told them he didn't feel right about his work. that it might be illegal, even a risk to u.s. national security. with little faith in the singapore police and the fbi unable to help in a foreign country, the todds had little choice but to launch their own investigation. rick todd had pictures of shane's body taken when it returned to the u.s. they gave them and the singaporean coroner's report to a forensic pathology in any event missouri. his conclusion, shane was murdered. most likely strangled by a wire. the evidence, bruises on his hands and a lump on his forehead indicating a fight. the back of shane's neck was cut, hanging only causes damage to the front of the neck. there were bruises on shane's fingers and neck indicating he was trying to squeeze his hands under the wire, again struggling to live. >> it's very hard to go through the pictures. but we will go to the ends of the earth to see justice is done. >> shane todd's parents, mary and rick, are "outfront" tonight.

Target, Staples Use WRI Tool to Profit from Sustainability
Target and Staples are among the companies using a new World Resources Institute tool to evaluate their sustainability efforts.
The Sustainability SWOT, or sSWOT, adds sustainability to the traditional strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) analysis to help businesses translate environmental risks, like climate change and water scarcity, into opportunities for profit.
WRI cites a study by the MIT Sloan Management Review and Boston Consulting Group, which found that companies deriving profits from their sustainability efforts are more likely to work with others (see chart) in addressing environmental, social, and economic challenges.
According to a WRI blog post, companies can use the sSWOT to motivate others to invest and collaborate on sustainability issues in ways that increase business value. It can also help convince top-level executives and boards of directors that environmental challenges are closely tied to companies' core interests.
WRI has been testing the sSWOT with a dozen companies over the past few months, and heard from the companies that the tool creates a "common language" for taking about sustainability issues with colleagues, and a "bridge" for discussing the company's current operations and plans to be competitive in future markets.
According to the sSWOT User Guide, Target executives used the tool to work with the food business director and her team to assess sustainable food initiatives.
Other examples from companies testing the sSWOT include:
- Staples used the sSWOT to frame meetings with large commercial customers and start discussions about collaboration on sustainable products, purchasing and energy.
- Auto parts supplier Delphi used the sSWOT to assess zero-waste strategies and found that cost savings could be a compelling pitch to senior management.
- Food giant Danone Brasil used the sSWOT to answer the question: is our five-year sustainability strategy ambitious enough?
In September, Ceres launched an online tool to help companies assess supply chain sustainability, and earlier in the year UL Environment, the environmental services unit of Underwriters Laboratories, launched a free web-based tool to help manufacturers assess their corporate sustainability efforts.
UL's 2012 annual global study found that more than 80 percent of manufacturers say sustainability is essential to the success of their business.

David is an international expert in Australian literary studies. His areas of speciality are autobiography and poetry. His Artful Histories: Modern Australian Autobiography was published by Cambridge University Press in 1996, the same year that the book was awarded a NSW Premiers Literary Award. His publications on poetry include the Contemporary Poetry chapter in The Cambridge Companion to Australian Literature (2000), the Poetry: 1970-2005 chapter in The Companion to Australian Literature (2007), and the 'Autobiography' chapter in The Cambridge History of Australian Literature. David has also written numerous essays and reviews for scholarly and general publications such as Criticism, Biography, Southerly, Meanjin, Westerly, Australian Book Review, The Age, The Australian, the Sydney Morning Herald and JASAL. David has also written Introductions to 30 Australian Poets (UQP, 2011) and Rosemary Dobson Collected (UQP, 2012).
David has been the co-recipient of a number of ARC Grants, including a Discovery Grant on 'Australian literature and the public sphere'. In 2004 he was invited to guest-edit a special issue of the refereed journal Life Writing on Life Writing and the Public Sphere. From 2003-2006 he was associate editor of the literary journal, Space: New Writing. He is an editorial board member of Life Writing and Antipodes: The North American Journal of Australian Literature. He has been a guest at a number of literary festivals, including the 2012 Melbourne Writers' Festival. In 2006 he was the co-recipient (with Professor Jill Roe and Professor Nicholas Jose) of an ARC Linkage Grant (of $240 000) for the project The Macquarie PEN Anthology of Australian Literature, of which David is the Deputy General Editor. The Macquarie PEN Anthology of Australian Literature was published in 2009 and in 2010 it won the 'Special Award' in the NSW Premier's Literary Awards. Thomas Keneally described the anthology as being 'Unprecedented in the breadth of what it offers from both the ancient and the recent literature of the country'.
David is also a poet. His first book of poetry, Blister Pack was published internationally by Salt Publishing in 2005. Blister Pack won the Mary Gilmore Award (for a first book of poetry) and was short-listed for four major awards, including The Melbourne Prize for Literature (New Writing Award), Australias richest literary award. A fine-press chapbook, Graphic: Two Sequences, appeared in 2010. His second full-length collection, Outside, was published by Salt Publishing in 2011. It was short listed for the Queensland Literary Awards and it was a Finalist for the Melbourne Prize for Literature's $30 000 Best Writing Award in 2012. His poetry has also appeared in numerous journals and anthologies, including The Age, Southerly, Australian Book Review, The Best Australian Poems 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014 and The Best Australian Poetry 2007.

Can you tell whose bikini booty is this? You've seen it before, in fact I've seen it in this same exact pose.
If you guessed Jessica Alba, you would be right. It looks like whatever baby weight Jessica gained is completely gone. Doesn't that mean it's about time to pregnant with the second baby?
Isn't that how it works.

My friend [link] coloured the picture but didn't finish it initially. Somehow or rather, it suddenly inspired me to colour the picture as well, for it seems to me I didn't like potnetially good artworks that aren't finished. And so...here it is. Not the best coloured piture in the world, but I'm satisfied. At least it turned out well, considering how my other efforts were horrible.
This one took a really long time to colour though, I probably need to find a new method...

love that you went with such a drak colour scheme. looks really tight
I think you should've added a full-face mask. To be honest, it's not the best face in the world. The armour is spectacular though, fair play to you.
I thank you for the comment, but I mentioned already I did NOT draw this. The artist is linked
Madass axe! Great image
hardly, i can't make knight like this ^^
very hard to make the armor
very hard to make the armor
Well neither can I, like I said in the description I didn't draw it, I only did the colouring
Very nice!
Nice axe Armor are good Where are shadow and light ?
Thanks . Shadow and lighting aren't existent because I just coloured what was drawn.
Great design! I like it.
Thank you for the comment and fave but...if youre talking aboutthe drawing, read the description again. I didn't draw it, just coloured it .

Great concept, beautifully painted.
Excellent :clap;
Well done.
sorry to burst your bubble, and with all due respect. as this is a very nice piece, but as an experienced archer, I must point out that one of the absolute first things an archer learns is to draw the string back to the corner of his/her mouth so that the string sits under the cheek and against the nose, your archer here has the string much too far from his face, and his grip on the sting is with the knuckles rather than the finger tips, great painting, but terrible archery form.
It is very useful information for me, thank you very much!
Wow, Sir how do you do it? The skin tone is just like old master's work. Beautiful.
Really stunning work, details, composition and colour, and I just love the dragonfly
I think it was a photo O.o
Very,very beautiful <3
Very,very beautiful <3
I love this! The contrast between the blue of the dragonfly and the red of the arrow works really well! Also, the concept is great, very original work.
This is absolutely beautiful. Can I ask what your inspiration was for painting this? It's just so wonderfully unique!
Thank you!The idea just came and I painted it
A beautiful concept PLUS and beautiful painting.
Congrats! Hope it gains you a Daily Deviation!
Oh, and...Happy Birthday!

your execution is fantastic !
wow ,colores is Great
Your gallery is simply amazing.
It sounds like elfish language.What does it mean?
Oh this is beautiful!! I love the strength this drawing conveys as opposed to the fragility of the dragon fly on the bow. Brilliant concept and brilliantly executed !
Such a refreshing idea. So creative. The concentration in the archers face, the aquatic blue of the dragonfly! Beautiful!
Interesting way to pull back an arrow >_>
love the dragonfly...

Ok, I need some help!!!
I did a great job "fake" drinking this weekend around friends. Hubby helped me out.... but I have a problem this weekend!
I am going on a business trip with just my boss (we do this 4 times a year) and after our first day of running through the gift show, we hit the bar, have a few drinks, and then grab some dinner. I am a beer drinker, and she knows it!!
My problem is that we are going this weekend, and I don't want to tell her yet. i haven't even been to the dr. yet.Ā
My plan is to order a glass of wine (because i do drink wine once in a while) and pretend to sip it for a while, and complain that i have a headache, and the wine is making it worse.Ā
Ugh, I just have a feeling that she is going to catch on really easily, because we go again in 2 weeks for another one of these trips!!
Anyone else have a good idea??Ā

What type of photography you call this?
Apr 26, 2011
When you look at the photos of Michael Kenna or Josef Hoflehner, you would realised they have a very distinctive style. I do admire their style of photography and funny that I may have asked, is there a name for such style of photography? I came across some called it minimalist but I felt not.

University of Worcester taster day
Six students from Worcester Sixth Form College, with an interest in becoming Paramedics, recently attended a taster day at the University of Worcester. The students enjoyed a very exciting hands-on experience and were able to use real equipment learning how to take ECGs, put on bandages and slings as well as taking blood pressure and practising CPR. The students spoke to current undergraduates on the Foundation degree in Paramedic Science about their experiences and were very impressed by the course and the facilities - it really inspired them!
WSFC student wins local Rotary Club Photography Competition
Milena Kierzkowska, a first year student at Worcester Sixth Form College, recently won the Worcester Vigornia Rotary Club Photography Competition in the senior level. In addition to being presented with a certificate, Milena's prize will include attending an event with Mike Henley, professional photographer, which it is hoped will be a beneficial experience. Mike is also a member of Worcester Vigornia Rotary Club. Milena, who is currently studying AS levels in Media Studies, Photography, Psychology and Travel and Tourism, said of her success: "I was inspired to produce the photo by seeing some amazing sunsets in the course of several evenings, so to achieve the best composition I aimed to take photographs in a creative and imaginative way. I am very satisfied with the successful outcome." Cathryn Lacey, Youth Services Committee Chair at Worcester Vigornia Rotary Club, said: Worcester Vigornia Rotary Club congratulates Milena on winning their Young Photographer Competition with her wonderful entry on the subject of 'our world is beautiful'. Rotary supports, encourages and celebrates the talents and skills of young people and aims to be a force for good in the community, putting service above self."

Node binary could not be found in PATH
Consider using the node_command setting for the Node plugin
PATH is: /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
What could be the problem?

Chip Kelly, mad scientist on offense, addressed that side of the ball with his first NFL draft pick Thursday night. But the new Eagles coach made an Andy Reid-like selection when he took athletic Oklahoma tackle Lane Johnson with the No. 4 pick in the first round.
Kelly even sounded like Reid, who also chose a tackle when he selected first overall for the Chiefs, when he explained the Eagles' reasoning for drafting Johnson.
"Football is all about winning the game up front," Kelly said at the NovaCare Complex.

Loved this! Despite my initial skepticism of the parsley in a drink I really felt it was a great, refreshing drink and it was beautiful as well. Mine came out quite a bit darker than the pic posted, and I actually split the parsley mix between 2 glasses before topping with the club soda. I do think you can get away with a little less sugar in this if you don't want a very sweet drink.
I have to say I had reservations while preparing this drink. It is not very attractive in the blender. Staining it made all the difference. :) It was actually much nicer than I anticipate. Very fresh and refreshing. It is 84 degrees this afternoon and this hits the spot! I made a small change. Rather than use sugar and then club soda I skipped the sugar and used 7UP. Thank you for posting! Made on behalf of the Looney Spoon Phoodies for ZWT6
Not exactly my cup of tea, but still an interesting libation. I guess I should have been juicing up all kinds of veggies to drink, in order to keep a little healthy, but I didn't! I'm sure this would go over well to someone who was used to drinking veggies. Thnx for sharing your recipe, BakinBaby. Made for the Voracious Vagabonds of ZWT 6.

The Maserati Alfieri concept wowed audiences at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, helping the Italian brand celebrate its 100th anniversary in style. However, it wasn't just a piece of auto-show tinsel: Maserati noted that the Alfieri was a drivable prototype and, indeed, it may see production.
Autocar reports that a production Alfieri would use the same platform as the Maserati Ghibli and Quattroporte sedans, along with their turbocharged V-6 engines. That would be a major change from the concept, which was built on a shortened GranTurismo chassis and features that car's 4.7-liter V-8.
Maserati currently has two versions of a 3.0-liter turbocharged V-6 in its arsenal. The base version produces 345 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, while a more potent one produces 404 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque. It's all part of a reported plan to position the production car below the GranTurismo in Maserati's lineup, where it would serve as a sportier, more affordable alternative that could compete with the Jaguar F-Type and Porsche 911.
While the name Alfieri itself is laden with heritage--Alfieri Maserati was the most prominent of the six brothers that founded the company--the production version could be named GranSport instead. This isn't the first time we've heard a report of a revived GranSport that would compete against the F-Type and 911. Maserati first confirmed the car back in 2012, but the details have been in flux ever since.
A sports car with the Alfieri's styling would further expand Maserati's sales volumes, but it probably won't arrive anytime soon. Maserati will launch the Levante SUV before considering another model.

Place in your amateur section.
As Real as It Gets is six scenes of decent amateur hardcore with a wide variety of different women. The scenes are shot with a professional eye even if the hardcore itself is far from pro.
Perhaps the most interesting scene is Leisa's. She's an older gal, who shows up wearing a very smart business suit and a coif that would make Janet Reno proud. One of the scenes is a threesome, with two girls ably giving one dude a good ride. Sierra, dressed as a schoolgirl, uses toys on herself. Everything else is one-on-one.

It was so fun to share the weekend with you! And your parents are too cute! Onto the next adventure. 😉
Kristin recently posted..It's Time…to RAGNAR: Adirondacks Style!
In Lake Placid
After the Ragnar Relay, Chris and I were pretty beat. My parents had met us at the finish line of the Ragnar Relay. I had booked a hotel in Lake Placid for Saturday night months in advance, and our team was heading straight home after the race. That meant we needed a ride home! My parents came to the rescue because they are awesome and wanted to see some of the sights in Lake Placid.
My parents had already checked into the hotel, the Econo Lodge right down the street from the Finish Area of the race. Our team dropped us off and we said our goodbyes! Time to relax! Thank goodness our hotel had a hot tub, it was much welcomed.
The hotel was full of fellow-ragnarians. Every time we saw someone who had ran (it was obvious) we ended up talking and swapping race stories. It was awesome. There were so many other Ragnar vans in the parking lot!
After getting a much needed shower and resting for a little bit, we hit up a place for dinner with my parents. We ended up going to Milano North, an Italian place on Main Street. Apparently it has an "Albany Cousin" but I have never heard of a Milano restaurant in Albany…
I knew what I wanted when I got there…a glass of Riesling! Their Reisling by the glass was one from the Finger Lakes. Perfect! It was delicious.
I was debating on what to get for dinner…pasta or fish. I ended up going with the maple salmon with risotto since I usually never order risotto and it was a treat! It ended up being delicious and very filling! The salmon tasted good, too.
Such a good meal after eating snacky foods and horrible eggs during the weekend. 🙂
After dinner we went to some shops in Lake Placid, but it was still raining and we were exhausted! We went back to our hotel and got ready for bed. The beds were so soft it was like sleeping on a cloud–but I guess even a gym floor would feel like that after being stuck in a cramped van overnight on only a few hours of sleep!
The next morning we had free breakfast at the hotel (make your own waffles!) and got ready to head back. Mostly everything was closed in the village by then but we checked out and decided to walk around down by Mirror Lake and take pictures.
The foliage was so pretty up there! I wish we had seen more of it during the race, but it was so dark and rainy.
We drove the route that the runners took up to Lake Placid so we passed Whiteface Moutain and got out to take some more pictures.
Yes, I look awesome rocking my compression sleeves with orange and grey shoes! Anyway–I would love go hiking up here eventually! On the drive back down to Albany we passed so many trail heads to high peaks. Everyone was parked at the side of the road, too.
Now that Ragnar is said and done, I have so many thoughts floating around in my head about the race. I keep thinking about it, sad that its over, and looking forward to my chance to do it again!

We just happened upon this Pousada while we were travelling by car . The expense was not in our budget, but we decided that sleeping in a castle with such a rich history could not be passed up!
We even went up to the top of the tower at midnight in case any of the residents who lost their lives there showed up! Allw e saw were the brilliant stars and the warm breeze blowing over portugal.
The staff were very good, polite and friendly to help with anything. Breakfast which was included was an excellent buffet. The town was fun to walk around and explore little side streets and little cafes eveywhere were a pleasure, even with our limited portuguese, smiles go a long way!
A place not to miss!

Mirror, Mirror
Place large mirrors facing each other to create the illusion of more space. One looking glass is enough to expand the perceived depth of a room, but two facing each other amplifies the effect even more. Here, a pier mirror on the front parlor wall faces another one in the front hallway, extending the illusion of added space and light indefinitely.
