It doesn't matter if you are traveling in Budapest Hungary with or without kids; you have to take the time to explore the Budapest Zoo and Botanical Garden. While many of the animals may be found in good zoos across the world, the plant life is going to be unique to this region of Hungary. One of the most fascinating aspects of this particular zoo is the lack of funding and how hard the community is working to build the necessary funds to really make this attraction the amazing place it really could be.
Inside the Budapest Zoo and Botanical Garden you will find of course animal habitats and displays as well as educational information about the faun and flora of the area. You will also find refreshment stands and the entrance to the zoo with its particularly whimsical art deco look is waiting to invite you in.
Our travel experts pick the best deals for you. By entering your email address you will receive a link; by clicking this link you are added to our mailing list. You will receive unique and inspiring offers roughly once a week.

This piece is a great way to stretch those nipple piercings. It is made from All Surgical Steel. It can be a used for a temporary sensation, or you can use it as a trainer to accomplish a more long term result as well. The choice is up to you.
You never want to wear The Nipple Trainer for long periods of time though as it is not designed for that. Shorter periods of time, with just a question of frequency to be decided. Also you want to use this tool very carefully, if you stretch your piercing too fast you can tear your skin causing major problems. Slow and Steady is the key for stretching any piercing. If at anytime you feel a numbing sensation while wearing this piece you should remove it immediately. Do not crank down on it, just because you can.
Customer Reviews
- HOT - Love this device Review by fmotb
Quality I like pretty rough nipple play this is great and intense too. I like the ability to adjust up and down. The sensation is just what I need. I wish I hadn't been cheap and had ordered a pair rather than just one. If you like nipple play this is great and leaves your hands free for well, whatever you might need to do with them. LOL

- Will make a great Christmas gift Review by Dr. Bob
Quality Looks fabulous! I've hidden it away for Christmas -- only 15 days!
These guys sent it out immediately... thanks very much.(Posted on 12/10/12)

Quality I love this Nipple Trainer, and how it stretches my nipple. It takes a little patience to assemble it over my nipple, but once on it really works. The bar that goes through my pierced nipple tends to slide out so if it had a screw on piece at each end it would stay in better.

Quality Is this item used to length your nipple, or is to enlarge the site of the actual piercing?
Thank you.(Posted on 2/29/12)

Quality WOW! Totally awesome. I have my nips stretched with the nipple rounders. I can comfortably wear 2 on each with 8 gauge ( 3 on the left). But these will blow your mind. Do not over stretch, and do not leave them on too long. All I can say is WOW!

Quality Works incredibly well. I bought mine for gauging out and found its a great alternative to weights, because it stretches out not down.

What are the downsides to sleeping in a hammock on a multi-day hike?
I've read that hammocks are a very light way to travel through the wilderness. You just need the hammock, a cover, and a light sleeping bag, but there must be disadvantages compared to taking a tent ...

When robots take over the world, who will you have on your side? The revolution is upon us and there are plenty of robots taking over right now—well, taking over some of your mundane cleaning chores.
Of course, sloth can be a bit expensive. However, Woot is making the investment a little lighter today, by discounting the iRobot Roomba 581. Right now, the website has the robotic vacuum listed for just $279.99, which is $70 off the list price. That's a pretty fair price for your own minion!
As part of the iRobot family, the Roomba 581 offers easy, daily cleaning, all without having to lift a finger. (OK, you need the one finger to turn it on.) It's a little worker bee, too, promising to get into some of those hard-to-reach areas. It has its own Wireless Command Center, so you can actually steer the vacuum into the dirtiest spots. It also comes with three Virtual Wall Lighthouses, which means that you can keep Roomba from escaping into other rooms. Last, but certainly not least, you don't even have to be around for Roomba to want to work; it offers scheduling that allows you to clean at preset times.
Just remember that this discount does not including free shipping, so you'll need to factor in the extra $5 for this purchase. It's still a good deal—but one that's going to be gone very soon. Woot deals are just one day, so this offer will be gone at the end of the day today (Monday, October 29, 2012) or whenever Woot runs out of stock!

Hi guys, first post, dont know if this is the right forum.
I started learning to surf many years ago, and havent been surfing for years though. In the last months I had the chance to go surfing more often.
I had a couple of surf camps on Canary Islands, with 7'10'' NSP and a BIC longboard (this was back in 2005). Then, after a long gap, I started again in Brazil with shortboards (6'8'', 6'4'') and then on my own I spent 10 days longboarding in an easy spot (Praia da Pipa, near Natal in Brazil), and really enjoyed it, as I was able to stay on wave's face til the end and til my legs burned (this was 2009).
I would define myself a post-beginner, but now, using my 7'4'' minimal results are very bad.
I surfed with it during the last months and results were miserable while all the others were having greatest fun with their shortboards. Then I heard something I had thought but didn't want to admit: the minimal isn't a long nor a shortboard, it doesnt glide and start like a long because you have to paddle like crazy to move it, you cant duck dive and have to struggle like mad to get to lineup. My main problem at the beginning has been that I couldn't catch waves, as it seems I didnt paddle enough or earlier enough. I found it very very slow to start. So heavy. It seemed the minimal didnt move much or was very heavy and slow. Dimensions are 7'4'' x 20 1/4 x 2 1/2, three fins.
Now I can catch waves more easily, but cant stay high on the wave. It seems I am unable to steer away from the "shore direction" and get across wave's face. While I paddle catching the wave I try to angle my board as much as I can: if the shore is at 12oclock, then my nose is at 2 or something like that (usually right waves here). The problem I am facing is that once I pop up and I turn (right) my torso and push with heel (I am a goofy, on a right wave) in order to get up on wave's face, the board simply continues to go towards the shore, or it really slows down. IT's like I cant dig the rail. The other day I dropped a friend on a shortboards, and I saw him going superfast behind me on top of the wave, while I was sadly going -not straight, but at an angle- towards the shore.
I also remember that when I was at Lanzarote (with longboard) in order to stay on the wave without losing it (as it happens now) I used to grab my external rail with my hands, making somehow easier for my internal rail to dig into the wave and goes on the face. Should I try to do this as well?
thanks in advance!

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- The West Virginia Supreme Court reversed a lower court's ruling and unanimously agreed with a Weirton couple who sued former West Virginia University football coach Rich Rodriguez and his wife over a house sale on Cheat Lake.
The high court unanimously agreed with Weirton attorney Raymond Hinerman and his wife, Barbara, who sued Rodriguez and his wife, Rita, for fraud and wrote that the case shouldn't have been thrown out without a sufficient opportunity for discovery in the case.
The case will be sent back to Monongalia County Circuit Court.
The dispute began in 2010, when the Hinermans agreed to purchase the Rodriguez's house on Cheat Lake for about $1.3 million.
Shortly before the sale, Rita Rodriguez discovered a water leak in one of the basement rooms. After the purchase was made, the Hinermans filed suit, claiming the leak and the damage it caused had not been fully disclosed and had been fraudulently concealed from them.
Monongalia Circuit Judge Phillip Gaujot ruled in favor of the Rodriguez family. He determined that the leak and damage were disclosed, that the Hinermans purchased the property anyway, and that they were not entitled to relief.
Hinerman, representing himself, argued that the purchase agreement's "as is" language applied at the time the contract was signed, but that the damage occurred later.
Hinerman contended that he and his wife had inspected the property themselves, but the room with the leak was filled with toys and not able to be inspected.
Gary Wigal, the lawyer for the Rodriguez family, argued that the Hinermans had full knowledge of the problem before they purchased the house and that they had the option to obtain professional inspection of the home, and since they declined to do so, they gave up any right they might have had to have repairs completed at the Rodriguez family's expense.

'Probably the quickest on the speed gun'
Part seven: Among the best bowlers Alec Stewart faced was Allan Donald, who had some memorable duels with English batsmen (00:00)

Allan Donald
'Probably the quickest on the speed gun'
December 7, 2012
Allan Donald is the only South African in my line-up here. Apologies to Shaun Pollock - you were close to getting in, but I went for [Glenn] McGrath ahead of you.
But Allan Donald was probably the quickest if he was on the speed gun, I would say. A bit like Brett Lee, the Australian - very, very quick through the air, but because of their actions you saw the ball all the way through from when they gathered to when they delivered, whereas other bowlers - I mentioned Wasim Akram earlier, he would hide the ball, he might bowl around the wicket and jump from behind the umpire and then bowl. That seemed even quicker. But with Donald, you saw the ball all the way. Still, have to try and play it.
Very aggressive quick bowler, a great competitor, a very proud South African.
We had some good duels. He knew that I like hooking. Many times that I have played against him. I remember Johannesburg in 1995-96, where he had three men out on the hook, one in front of square and two behind, all on the boundary, and I still tried to take him, which was probably not the most intelligent thing to do. But I enjoyed taking him on. I won some battles and lost some battles.
He's one of the few bowlers who actually hit me - in Port Elizabeth, on that tour. I went to pull him and he hit me in the visor. He followed through and nodded, and I nodded, straightened the visor and carried on. That's part and parcel of being an opening batsman and playing against quick bowling. But I really enjoyed that challenge of playing against him. Fierce competitor, but a good fellow off the field.
Allan Donald, in England, will be remembered for the duel he had with Michael Atherton at Trent Bridge in the 1998 series, which we went on to win.
We lost heavily at Lord's, drew at Edgbaston, then we went to Old Trafford, a game where I got a big hundred. But it was a battle against Donald there and England hung on right at the end. He bowled his heart out, he did. But we just secured the draw and then went on to win the last two Test matches.
But that little passage of play - Allan Donald against Michael Atherton at Trent Bridge, where Athers gloved it through to [Mark] Boucher and was given not out... the 25 minutes after that was as good a piece of international sport - not just cricket but international sport - that you'll ever wish to see, because you had two people at the top of their game, going toe to toe, not wanting to give an inch.
Donald has the advantage of being able to bowl at 95 miles an hour. Athers is one of the toughest cricketers you'll come up against. He had his bat in his hands and he didn't want to lose this little duel, and he didn't. But that, really, summed up for me what Allan Donald was all about, because not long after that Nasser [Hussain] nicked one that Boucher dropped, and you could see Donald crying out a huge yell, and he showed all his expressions and all the emotions. Yet at the end of the over, he then ran down to Mark Boucher and said, "Listen mate, don't worry, catch the next one."
And that to me summed up what Donald is all about.

Collaborative commerce to virtual manufacturing
By Michael Saucier
The financial reality of plant ownership tempers bold moves.
The emergence of e-commerce and the Internet has put process manufacturing companies in a quandary.
They carry the weight of significant physical assets, lengthy development cycles, long technology transfer times, and decreasing product life cycles.
Wall Street challenges them to make bold and decisive increases in economic value add while simultaneously protecting their margins from erosion due to price transparency in e-marketplaces.
This challenge is difficult for process manufacturers because they are by nature risk averse. They deal with dangerous processes, hazardous materials, governmental regulations, and swarms of lawyers.
The demand to make bold moves is tempered by the financial reality of the expense of plant ownership, research and development, and marketing.
Collaborative commerce (c-commerce) enables companies to make audacious moves and at the same time allows them to take advantage of the new Internet environment in their day-to-day operations.
Technology leaders are moving from e-commerce to c-commerce. C-commerce involves collaboration in reaching trading agreements. This collaboration moves well beyond the simple one-dimensional price transparency model that exemplifies most buy-side or sell-side electronic marketplaces.
The ability to collaborate as early as product inception and continue throughout scale-up to commercialization allows unprecedented time to market compression, product risk reduction, and asset utilization increases.
The Internet's first business-to-business wave was in the commodity markets. E-commerce replaced paper catalogs, phone sales, and faxes but still dealt with off-the-shelf or made-to-stock items.
E-commerce's benefit was a reduction in the cost of obtaining commodity products and the ability to sometimes get better prices for the products.
While much of the world's trade is in commodity products, these represent only about 15% of purchases in the process industry, which relies heavily on negotiated contract buying of custom-synthesized materials.
These products manufacture per specific customer requirements and generally design for single customers. There is usually significant collaboration between the sellers and buyers of special products—hence, c-commerce is the natural trading model for much of the process industries.
Internet technologies enable better and faster collaboration between buyers and sellers. Fortunately, these same technologies can apply in an evolutionary manner to allow companies to move to c-commerce at their own pace.
The c-commerce model allows the evolution from an integrated internal supply chain to an integrated external supply chain, which we call virtual manufacturing. It also allows companies to evolve from internal collaboration to external customer collaboration.
The technologies used in c-commerce applications can be applied to help organizations address the following areas:
- Standards of product communication: How do I make the product?
- Capability visibility: Where do I have the capability to make it?
- Capacity visibility: What capacity do I have to make it?
- Costing visibility: What will it cost to make it?
- Scheduling visibility: When can I make it?
- Rapid and automatic technology transfer: The ability to translate a general product definition into a set of manufacturing instructions anywhere in the world, regardless of the level of that plant's automation.
- Order management and execution connectivity: The ability to transmit a new or changed product definition into existing order management, enterprise resource planning (ERP), and supply chain systems.
By addressing these areas, a virtual manufacturing environment can evolve from traditionally organized companies. Virtual manufacturing is defined as the flexible and efficient organization of manufacturing resources through transparent insourcing and off-balance sheet manufacturing, including outsourcing, co-packing, and strategic alignment with suppliers and business partners.
ISA-S88.01, General Recipe Models, answers the question "How do I make the product?" in the process and batch manufacturing industries. General recipes are documents describing how to make a product without specifying the equipment used to make the product.
The second question—"Where do I have the capability to make it?"—can also be answered using general recipes and well-defined rules for conversion to master recipes. Internet-enabled tools can be used to manage capability definitions and develop general recipes as a collaborative effort.
Information exchange between ERP and scheduling systems can answer the next three questions. Many e-business systems dealing with logistics and distribution focus on answering these questions.
However, answering these three questions assume that the first two have already been answered. When considering only the third, fourth, and fifth questions, the solution is e-commerce. When also addressing the first two questions, it becomes c-commerce.
Technology transfer must enable a rapid conversion of product intelligence from the development side of an organization to specific sets of manufacturing instructions delivered to the manufacturing side of the organization.
Finally, the last area of virtual manufacturing consists of translating new and changed product definitions to existing systems. This is the handshake between c-commerce and e-commerce applications. IT

Tripping the light fantastic at Dunfermline Abbey
3 November 2008
10,000 candles and hours of preparation to set up artistic sound and light installation.
Hours of preparation, hard work and imagination have gone into one of the biggest light and sound events Fife has ever seen.
On the 6 and 7 November, Dunfermline Abbey is to be transformed with spectacular lights and sounds as the Historic Scotland property is lit up with around 10,000 artificial candles.
Billed as 'The Pilgrim' it will give the public the chance to take part in a dramatic walk which will start at Abbot House and continue through the graveyard, visitors will then be able to experience the artistic light and sound installation before ending in the Abbey Nave where thousands of candles have been placed.
Clara Wheelan, events and filming officer at Historic Scotland, said:
"Historic Scotland has been working with artist, Tim Fitzpatrick for a while now and The Pilgrim really is something quite special. We have put a lot of effort and hard work into making this artistic piece a reality. One of the main aims of the project was to get this ancient building recognised in a different way.
"The events team at Historic Scotland have been working with a host of colleagues from our regional architects to our monument conservation unit on how to make an event like this happen in an historic building. And of course, some of us mucked in and helped lay out the thousands of candles.
"With its splendour and history, Historic Scotland's Dunfermline Abbey provides the perfect backdrop for this artistic event. The site has an extraordinary history because of its status and setting and the fact that its the shrine of Scotland's only saint. This event will give locals the chance to see the Abbey as they have never seen it before and be truly inspired."
Tim Fitzpatrick, the artist behind The Pilgrim, choose Dunfermline Abbey because of its beautiful setting and its links with pilgrims. He said:
"Dunfermline Abbey seemed like the ideal place for this project. The Abbey itself is a key site for pilgrimage. It's a stunning property and is very atmospheric and makes a lot of sense in a historical context. For me, the chance to create ideas in light and sound in one of the most inspirational locations in Scotland is exciting and daunting in fairly equal measure.
"Ultimately the intention was to take the whole idea of pilgrimage and try to distil it down to a single, universal idea and I would sum this up simply as a journey to a place of inspiration."
The artistic piece took over a year to plan. From picking the ideal property to designing the show and of course setting out the thousands of artificial candles. A number of volunteers also made sure they were on hand to help out with the final preparations.
With a background in photography and filmmaking, The Pilgrim is one of the biggest projects the artist has worked on, he added:
"This project has been an ambitious from the start. We worked out the area of floor space and I had done a rough calculation and discovered it would take 10 people an hour and a half to set out all the candles. Its been a lot of work and I'm looking forward to seeing reactions to this artistic piece.
"Winter is the ideal time of year for a light and sound show, its something a bit different and an event to cheer people up as the cold weather sets in. I think people will really enjoy the sea of candles, its an iconic idea and one which stands out."
to Editors
Photographs and interviews with Tim Fitzpatrick and Clara Wheelan can be arranged in advance of the event.
The event is funded by Fife Council and the Art and Theatres Trust Fife, and produced in collaboration with Abbott House and Historic Scotland.
The light and sound event will be open to the public at Dunfermline Abbey on the 6 and 7 November. The entrance to the production will be at the gates to Abbot House on Maygate.
Tickets cost £4.00 (£2.00 for concessions) and are available from Carnegie Hall box office, East Port, Dunfermline. Tel: 01383 602302. Tickets are also available on-line at
The great abbey of Dunfermline was founded in the 11th century by Queen Margaret and the foundations of the original building lie under the stunning 12th century Romanesque style nave. The Abbey Church is the last resting place of many Scottish kings and queens. The adjoining church, at the front of Dunfermline Abbey and Palace, is not owned or operated by Historic Scotland. It is a functioning church where services are conducted.
Dunfermline Abbey and Palace is situated off the M90. The postcode is KY12 7PE Tel: 01383 739 026. Admission is Adult £3.70, Child £1.85 and Concessions £3.00.
Historic Scotland has 345 outstanding historic properties and sites in its care. These include some of the leading tourism attractions in the country, including Edinburgh, Stirling, and Urquhart castles, Fort George, Linlithgow Palace, the Border Abbeys and Skara Brae. For further details visit:
Historic Scotland is delighted to be supporting the 2009 Year of Homecoming with a series of initiatives including family trails, spectacular events and the creation of a Homecoming Pass for heritage attractions in association with other heritage organisations.

Cato Institute has launched a new website: libertarianism.org. In a previous incarnation, the domain served as a promotion page for David Boaz's Libertarianism: A Primer.
Designed to be an introductory and exploratory — if not quite a portal — site, it sports an elegant, stylized dove-wing logo. This is Cato's version of what the Advocates for Self-Government offer at libertarianism.com. But Cato's new site offers more links and videos on its front page, so it is bound to get more hits. The site offers a basic banner introduction:
LIBERTY. It's a simple idea, but it's also the linchpin of a complex system of values and practices: justice, prosperity, responsibility, toleration, cooperation, and peace. Many people believe that liberty is the core political value of modern civilization itself, the one that gives substance and form to all the other values of social life. THEY'RE CALLED LIBERTARIANS.
Well, that's one way of putting it.
Just below the banner, a video of an F.A. Hayek lecture on why ethics not arise from our reason. A familiar Hayekian topic, and I just started listening to it. Below that are three other videos, one by Milton Friedman on humility, a short (and terrific) Murray Rothbard lecture on economic recessions, and Joan Kennedy Taylor on feminism. Today's featured essays are by George H. Smith ("Religious Toleration Versus Religious Freedom") and Tom G. Palmer ("Myths of Individualism.") [Keep reading…]

Wow, when did kids turn into such pussies? I have been noticing more and more of this lately. My 14 year-old stepdaughter is the typical high school girl. She has a new boyfriend every couple of weeks. Occasionally they will come by the house to pick her up or to hang out for a minute. Every single one of these kids....I could easily confuse them for a girl. These guys are all wearing eyeliner (at best), nail polish, the works. Hell, one of them a couple of weeks ago was coming over so they could "do each others' hair"! All of them look as if they've never done anything remotely athletic/physical in their lives. Then there's the deameanor. Won't look you in the eye, mumble when they talk.....it makes me sick. Is this the way our kids are being raised nowadays? I asked her, are these the kind of men you really want to be around? I wouldn't even call them men, it would be an insult to actual men.
Anyways, kind of off topic, but we are turning out some kids who are complete pussies these days. I am not surprised by gyms with this Planet Fitness-like behavior.
Yes, it's incredibly pathetic. Here's another example for you. My 10 year-old cousin plays in soccer and baseball leagues that DO NOT KEEP SCORE!! They do this so that no gets their feelings hurt about losing games and so that the games won't be so competitive and be all about winning. Are you kidding me? Sports are all about winning, learning how to compete and learning how to both win and lose with some class and dignity.
Now is it any wonder that kids can't handle an "intimidating" or competitive gym atmosphere when they're being raised like this? It is the gradual pussification of our country and it disgusts me.
As pathetic as it is, it appears to be an emerging trend in the fitness industry and I honestly cant say I'm at all surprised.
This, on the other hand, did surprise me. I've never heard of anything like this. At what age will they start keeping score?My 10 year-old cousin plays in soccer and baseball leagues that DO NOT KEEP SCORE!! They do this so that no gets their feelings hurt about losing games and so that the games won't be so competitive and be all about winning.
Normally I always disagree with statements like this. When people try to claim things like "Society is getting worse/more violent".
This on the other hand I have a hard time denying myself. I think several things factor into it cellphone/ computers for one. It's given kids an avenue in which they can communicate without ever having to talk to someone face to face or look someone in the eyes. So in the rare moments when they are forced to do this with strangers they mumble and look at the floor. Oh well as long as I'm not one of those kids and I'm certainly not raising my daughter to be one.
I don't know. I suppose maybe once they get in junior high and start playing sports for their schools? It's so ridiculous.
That could have something to do with it, method. Kids spend a lot of face to face time with others at school everyday, though. They should be fairly used to it. Ok, I'll give them a pass on this....no passes for dudes wearing makeup, though.
Anyways, I feel like I've somewhat derailed the thread. Basically my point is that it is no surprise that these kids would have a problem with the perceived competition at the gym that the heavier weights bring. Look at how they're being raised....

How to Find Your Dream Job
My personal blog/website dedicated to giving answers on the age old question - how to escape the "rat race". I now play guitar for a living!
It's different at every university. At both Clemson (where I did my undergraduate) and here at Colorado State, the rec center fee is tied into a larger mandatory "general" fee, and because of that it's impossible to get a refund on the student rec center fees.
I've mentioned already that I very rarely go to this school gym in question. I go there on squat days every so often because they have a GHR, other than that I steer clear b/c it is a cess pool of hipsters, bench/curl jockeys, and total wanna be ******s.
oh, btw, i did a squat workout there the other day and definitely caught the attention of some of the workers. I thought they were going to ask me to "tone it down" on a few occasions. Oh well, was hoping for a good reaction.
hahaha nice. I was ramping up to 485lbs deadlift on tuesday at the "fitness" center i go to and I was thoroughly impressed, the trainers came up to me and were impressed and asked me about how I trained. All this coming from a place that caters to old old fat people. I even had old ladies smiling at me, just not what I expected.
I guess the young folk just need to grow the fark up. Kind of odd your uni gym has a GHR but discourages heavy lifting you should offer to take off their hands.

Related story...sorta...
I saw a news report today that said refs for school sporting events can bench a player if they see the player getting hurt. The player will not be allowed to play again until cleared by a doctor. So, if a ref sees you take a fall or hit your head, hurt or not, they can bench you. More sissyfication?

I dunno about sissyfication,
might have to do with stories like this http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/201....ap/index.html
Where an eagles player was allowed to return after a concussion and fell down.
Had something similar happen to me, this goes along with RBB's post.
It may be thread derailment like he claimed, but this thread popped up in my mind after this conversation...
Was talking with a professor, and she got to talking about socialization and how important family life is on children in stages of development. No argument there. Then she went on to talk about how spanking is wrong, and it is likely that an adult "spank" could cause kidney failure in a child in the ages of 4-6 years old.
Anyone else think this is a little overkill? I got spanked when I was a kid, and it did a great job of showing me what is right and what's wrong.
I've heard of shaken baby syndrome and what not, but a spank is a light smack. Its probably more effective in the sense of scaring the child rather than hurting the child. A child at the ages of 4-6 probably gets hit harder than a normal spank on a daily basis, when it comes to falling down, playing, and just doing kid things.
Obviously you aren't going to close your hand and hit the kid as hard as you can. There may be some idiots who have hit their kids like in the kidneys that and caused renal failure, thats obviously crossing the child abuse line.
What relevance I thought this may have to this thread is the recent trend of positive reinforcement and lighter punishments. A higher percentage of kids grow up now taught to be bounty soft as blankets straight out of the dryer.
What's sad is I'm 22 years old and I can see this. When I was a kid, I got stitches, I peed outside, I broke bones, and I'd leave the house on my bike and wouldn't return until dark. Parents would freak out if kids did these today.
Let kids be kids!!!

so it WAS totally just a made up bull**** rumor. The DBs were never removed because of people complaining, it was due to lack of space
Damn it i was gonna say that sounds great, you had two very good options;
1) Work out in the storage room take the GHR with you and never get stuck with douche bags
2) Use said douche bags as replacements for the DB's they moaned about see whos intimidated then.

Maybe I'm just looking for it, but does this sound fishy to anyone else? Like, if they never planned on getting rid of the weights, why wouldn't they have just moved them to begin with instead of sticking them in storage for a few weeks, and not offering an explanation until just now? Seems like maybe they caved to the pressure and are changing their storyThe Rec Center plans to move the weights back within the next few days, but they will be moved to another location to provide more space in the plate-loaded weight area.

I think you might be on to something.
Just wanna tell a few stories of mine...
When I was in high school, I remember this one day when I was on my spare and working out in the weight room like usual. Then this girl teacher who teaches the girls gym class came in to the weight lifting room where I was and told me that I need to leave because the girls were coming in and weren't comfortable with me working out with them. Right away, I was pissed. I was thinking, what the heck? Not once have these girls ever worked out at the same time with me and even if they did, I never screamed or anything like that when lifting; I just do my own thing. Maybe it's just a girl thing, I don't know but I was also mad because I paid to use the weight lifting room for the semester.
Another story I remember was the last gym that I worked out at. It was a real nice gym, kinda run down but it was good. It had a power rack, regular bench press and incline press station, had a cable place... Then all of a sudden they were redoing the whole weight lifting area. I came back like a week or two later and for real, you could almost say that the whole gym was filled with fancy machines. Half the room was just cardio things and almost the entire other half of the gym had all the weight machines. The free weights where all on this little strip. It had a dumbbell rack (don't remember how high the weights went up to), a couple free benches, and then a power rack which quickly became more of a "bench station" and I always had to wait to use it. After a couple weeks I moved to a new gym.
Couple things...
1) Every generation thinks the one ahead of it is getting worse and worse. We all have grandfathers and can attest to this (In MY day, you ate dinner with the family, not in front of the TV!!). That being said, I think the point of the coming generation is there are more extremes. For every sports league you have that doesnt keep score, you have another thats super hardcore and pumping out NFL atheletes from the time their 7 (well maybe its not 1-1, but you get my point).
2) So far I haven't heard any solutions to these sorts of problems, besides just finding a new gym. Despite how good it may make you feel, calling all of these people bitches or pussies, or running around slapping everyone high fives isn't going to allow you to lift at your school gym (for free, may I remind you). So here is my 2 cents. For one, not everyone lifts weights as a sport, and you cant blame them for being ignorant. Just as I play basketball for fun and recreation, some people just want to lift to look a little better or be a bit healthier.I'm sure they think I look like a wuss trying to throw up a layup (incorrectly I'm sure) or a total idiot when I try to dribble, just because in the end I don' really give a damn about basketball or really read about it. Its fun and its a social activity, my interest stops there. The gym is very simliar--most people DONT' want to lift weights, they just want to be healthy. Its hard to blame them to much for being ignorant. So obvious their going to be intimidated because not only are they ignorant, but you're putting complete newbies side by side to pros. When I step on the basketball court next to some guys who are pretty damn good, even I feel a little intimidated. I'm sure its even worse when the sport involves moving massive weights, slamming things around, yelling, etc. . At the end of the day I think these people are complete wussies just like the rest of you, I'm just trying to put things in perspective. Its hard to blame someone to much for trying to be healthy, even if they're doin it wrong.
So part of what I do is try to be nice to most of these people.. If the only interaction someone has with you is you slamming around weights, no **** they're going to be intimidated. Say hello, offer to spot, offer to give advice (nicely), etc. I'm real nice to everyone in the gym until its time to hit my set, and I basically just zone everyone out. By this point they're more impressed than intimidated, and I get to smash weights like I want.
I know some of you on the more dave tate side of things will say some **** like I DON'T GO TO THE GYM TO MAKE FRIENDS, I GO THERE TO SMF. Thats fine, but realize that having no regard for the people around you makes you antisoscial, and they will think you're an ******* for it.also the management won't like this either, which of course makes them complete pussies, but also realize that these pussies decide whether or not you get to lift weights there.at the end of the day the guy with a 2200 pound total pays just as much as the guy who dicks around ont he treadmill the whole time, so can you really blame them to much for giving the pussies priority? They're trying to keep customers and make money (really what they should be doing is de-pussyfing the gym crowd and teaching them how to lift, but thats a whole nother story). If this really isn't your style, you could talk with them about a time youc ould come when its OK to lift heavy like at in the morning or at night or something. Or just join another gym.
