Wake me when September ends. Oh, wait. September Big Ten football is already over. Let's review the last week of the first month of the season.
Team of the week: Michigan. The Wolverines take home this honor for the second time in three weeks, as their win over a motivated, previously unbeaten San Diego State team was probably the best of the week in the Big Ten. Michigan is 4-0 and will be heavily favored to make it 5-0 against Minnesota this week. Then the fun starts.
Best game: Honestly, Week 4 was mostly a yawner in the Big Ten. Illinois' 23-20 win over Western Michigan had some good moments, though. The Broncos threw the ball just about every down, tied it up in the fourth quarter and got the ball back with about a minute left with a chance to tie or take the lead. That provided the best drama of an off-off-Broadway kind of weekend.
Biggest play: Right after San Diego State failed to convert a fourth down in the fourth quarter, Michigan's Denard Robinson sprinted for a 30-yard gain. That set up Vincent Smith's touchdown to make it 28-7 and get the Wolverines out of harm's way. Robinson struggled again throwing the ball, but there's no one better at ripping off a big play at the right time.
Best call: Luke Fickell's mid-week decision to promote freshman Braxton Miller to starting quarterback. Ohio State needed a spark on offense, and while Miller completed only five passes against Colorado, he did throw two touchdowns and run for 83 yards. The Buckeyes probably could have beaten Colorado with Joe Bauserman, but Miller provides them some optimism.
Big Men on Campus (Offense): Denard Robinson and Matt McGloin. The two quarterbacks each had big days in different ways Saturday. Michigan's Robinson completed a standout September by rushing for 200 yards and three touchdowns in a win over San Diego State. He moved into second place on the Big Ten's career rushing yards list by a quarterback with 2,605, second only to Indiana's Antwaan Randle El (3,895). McGloin didn't start but was terrific for Penn State against Eastern Michigan. He went 14-of-17 for 220 yards and three touchdowns after coming in during the second quarter. During his time at quarterback, the Nittany Lions increased their lead from 3-0 to 31-0.
Big Man on Campus (Defense): Iowa defensive lineman Tom Nardo. The senior had a career-high 12 tackles, including two for loss, as the Hawkeyes beat Louisiana-Monroe 45-17.
Big Man on Campus (Special teams): Illinois kicker Derek Dimke drilled all three of his field goal attempts, from 39, 35 and 21, including the game-winner as the Illini survived against Western Michigan. Dimke is a perfect 6-for-6 on the year.
Worst hangover: (Tie) Minnesota and Indiana. Both teams are 1-3 and have a lot more questions than answers at this point. The Gophers somehow have played their best football against USC and Miami (Ohio) while looking their worst against New Mexico State and North Dakota State. The Hoosiers committed the unforgivable sin of falling behind North Texas 24-0 before losing 24-21. These are two teams not anxiously awaiting Big Ten play, because they're going to have a hard time finding more wins.
Strangest play: With five seconds left in the first half, Minnesota set up a fourth-down heave from midfield. North Dakota State's Colten Heagle picked it off near the 18, was tackled around midfield and just tossed the ball out. Marcus Williams picked it up and raced the rest of the way untouched for a score and a 28-14 Bison lead. Williams, who scored twice on defense, is from the Twin Cities but was not recruited by Minnesota. That's the kind of year it's been for the Gophers.

Voices of the Valley: Coping with the economy in Western Mass.
Published: Tuesday, March 02, 2010, 3:30 PM
Zee Johnson Owner Olive Tree Books- n-Voices 97 Hancock St., Springfield SPRINGFIELD - The bookstore has been open since 2004 and we sell primarily African-American literature. We also sell Bibles, children's books and religious books at the store as well as specialty gifts. Although we have seen a downturn in sales due to the difficult economy, we still have very loyal customers and new people that come in looking for specific books. If someone comes in looking for a specific book written by an African -American writer we usually have it. Or if they are looking for a religious book or gift, we also carry that. One thing we offer that a traditional bookstore might not is an alternative payment plan. We put books and other specialty gifts on layaway for people so that they can buy the item without having to pay for it all at once. We also give away books for free as a promotional tool. Another thing we have been doing is offering what we call "almost free" books which cost only $1. Sometimes they are books that have gone out of print or are on a specific topic. We can't compete with the larger chain bookstores, but we can offer specialty items that might be hard to find elsewhere. Even though people have to make tough choices between buying books and basic items that they need every day, I think our customers understand the value of the books we offer and that is what keeps us going.

Date: July 7-8 from 11h15-13h15 and 16h30-18h30; July 9 from 11:15-13:15
Short description:
This course provides an introduction to spatial data analysis for social scientists. The increasing availability of spatial data (both at the aggregated and at the individual level) has expanded the range of methodological tools to explore the spatial dimension of social phenomena and explain variation among areas. In this course, the student will learn how to manipulate and analyze spatial data. We will present basic techniques of Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis (ESDA), the concepts of local and global Spatial Autocorrelation, and introduce spatial (Lag and Error) regression models. Theoretical explanations will be accompanied by three lab exercises using GEODA (freeware). GEODA is a user-friendly software developed by Luc Anselin, the leading scholar in spatial econometrics, which enables beginners to quickly immerse in the world of spatial analysis.

Local Alleged Lotto Thief Caught Before Boarding Plane
Doesn't look like this one is a winner either.
Doesn't look like this one is a winner either.
Megan Bratten, of Independence, Mo., had just gone into the local Kmart to pick up some last-minute school supplies. She was in the store for about 15 minutes and when she came out discovered that her minivan had been stolen.
Thinking quickly, she sent a text to her estranged husband's phone which was still in the minivan, pleading with the thief to return the vehicle.
A couple weeks ago, we talked about a woman, Theresa Roemer, whose three-story closet got robbed.
Many people had been able to see this closet full of millions of dollars worth of handbags, furs and jewelry thanks to her hosting charity events and having the closet shown on television many times, KHOU TV reported.
Like we said, it's pretty obvious that this closet would eventually become the target of a robbery.
If you have a closet that is large enough to host charity events in it and lots of people see it on a regular basis, you probably shouldn't be too surprised when said closet becomes the target of a robbery.
And if your closet is three stories tall and houses millions of dollars worth of handbags, furs and jewelry and has been shown on television numerous times, you REALLY shouldn't be surprised.
As if it's not bad enough that a tornado nearly destroyed your neighborhood, now this.
I'd expect better of criminals in Albany but I guess I was wrong as one car thief attempted to bribe his victim of $20 to return his car.
This humorous, fan-made video parodies what it is like to eat according to some of our favorite video game mechanics.
For a game that revolves around stealing and stealth, vanishing save data wasn't the type of thievery we were hoping to experience.
In order to celebrate the revamping of one of the stealth genre's most prominent series, Square Enix and Amazon are going to be hosting a mod contest.
All's well that ends well. Turns out that the woman who jacked $200,000 in jewelry from Axl Rose in Paris on Tuesday (June 5) was "really just an excited fan," according to a tweet issued by Rose himself. The three stolen gold-and-diamond necklaces were returned to the Guns N' Roses singer after the thief, who admitted to mistakenly stealing the baubles, was taken into custody.

This Dog Will Hunt
Well, a very disappointing outcome today in the situation I am wrote about in my column this week: The Dallas Homeowners League has opted to bar the Belmont Neighborhood Association from membership in the DGHL. Why? Because Avi Adelman is a member of the BNA.
The DHL's six-page letter of decision is pretty laughable, based on the hearing I attended last week. In the letter the DHL beats up on Avi for being loud-mouthed and a bigot. At the hearing Avi was a perfect gentleman, while some of the questions from the panel of DHL inquisitors bordered on racist -- and one of Avi's detractors had to be expelled from the hearing for shouting obscenities.
What is not spoken in the letter is the real source of the dispute: the iron-willed determination of Maxine Aaronson and the Lower Greenville Neighborhood Association to kill all development in the area -- even good development -- and to push all of Greenville Avenue's problems south of Belmont, in Avi's neck of the woods and out of their own necks.
The other thing that struck me about the DHL and Aaronson at the hearing was that none of them seems to understand how the Internet works. Some of them weren't real sure about e-mail. Avi, of course, is a wizard and pioneer of social activism via the Interwebs.

Barring BNA from membership in the DHL is supremely chickenshit and chicken-hearted of the DHL -- proof that the DHL lacks the political bones to handle spirited internal debate or diversity. It really makes me wonder about their political legitimacy. Why should city council members -- who have to broker tough political infighting all the time in their districts -- listen to a group that's too namby to even let in people who might not toe the line perfectly. Avi's right. It's too much of a ladies' garden club.
Avi tells me "it's not over," which I think means he intends to keep fighting to get BNA into the DHL. I think he should forget it and start recruiting disaffected neighborhoods around the city who have figured out that the DHL is antiquated and doesn't meet their needs. It's high time the DHL got challenged on its claim to citywide hegemony.
I think it's time to sic the barking dogs on all of 'em. Avi for president. --Jim Schutze

Keep up with work and take a laptop on holiday
The BCS has compiled some tips for travelling with a laptop after finding that 15% of executives take their computer on holiday...

A further 8% take them to keep in touch with friends and family, to research local amenities or to use other technology such as digital cameras. Nearly half those who take their computer spend at least an hour a day dealing with work e-mails.
Executives who take their computers on holiday said they return to work feeling re-energised and in control, knowing they do not have to wade through a deluge of e-mails when they return.
BCS chief executive David Clarke said, "The figures reflect a 21st century working culture and also reveal that people are using technology to adapt to the demands of their work. Taking a laptop on holiday gives peace of mind by enabling them to keep in touch and respond to a situation."
The BCS has put together some tips for taking a laptop on holiday:
- Make sure it is covered by company or personal insurance
- Do not forget spare batteries, a charger or mains adaptor
- Keep the laptop in its case and take it on the plane with you; never check it in as luggage
- Ensure you have adequate password protection
- Use the laptop discreetly in public places. Laptops now compete with mobile phones in the theft league
- Never store sensitive information such as your passport number or bank details unless it is encrypted
- Keep the laptop away from the sea and sand and avoid humid conditions
- If you must work while on holiday, let customers and colleagues know you are available only at a fixed time.

Italy Vs. Mexico (The Game)
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 5 mins
Is it a 'Mexican calzone', or an 'Italian burrito'?.. You decide! This recipe is just as fun eating as it is playing. It's really fast & easy to make. Serve it with a blend of salsa and marinara sauce... then enjoy wonderful flavors and conversation trying to decide the winner. :)
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 large flour tortillas
- 4 tablespoons ricotta cheese
- 4 tablespoons shredded oaxaca cheese (or Mexican cheese blend)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pinch salt
- 1⁄4 cup Pace Picante Sauce (or salsa)
- 1⁄4 cup pizza sauce (marinara sauce)
- to each tortilla, place 2 Tbsp ricotta in the center and spread in a line out to about 2" from the edges. Sprinkle the top of the ricotta with 2 Tbsp of mozzarella. Fold burrito style (fold large side over filling, fold short ends in, then fold over longways onto the tortilla. Try to keep it flat rather than fat so that the cheese will melt thoroughly.
- To a skillet or saute' pan, heat the butter and olive oil over medium to med-high heat. (7 on my stove). Watch carefully so as not to burn the butter. Sprinkle a pinch of salt into the pan and then place burritos into the pan. Cover and let simmer until golden brown on the underside. About 2-3 minutes.
- Carefully turn the burritos over and cook the other side 'uncovered' to a nice golden brown and crispiness.
- Cut each in half and place onto individual plates (up to 4 people). Mix equal parts of salsa & pizza sauce (warmed if you prefer) together, place into dipping dishes and serve. Have fun dipping and tasting, and deciding which country wins!
Most Helpful
Interesting and tasty treat! I had small carb-smart wheat tortillas so that's what I used. I sprinkled the cheese with a little crushed red pepper before folding up the tortilla (I think that could go for both "teams" :) ). I really liked the marinara/salsa dipping sauce - I'd use that over pasta or in lasagna. Thanks for sharing a fun recipe!
what a fun time i think i perfered the italian route myself. if you have kids you should try this fun recipe
What a fun way to have lunch!! I made this using the smaller tortilla's, what I had on hand in freezer. So rather than making a burrito shape with the smaller size, I just put one on the bottom and topped it with the cheeses, plus a few slices of green onion. Then fried it as suggested. I went the Mexico route and had it with salsa and sour cream. Thanks for sharing a fun recipe! Made for PRMR Tag Game.

Political analysts are busy spinning which progressive cause they think Pope Francis promoted the most during his United States visit: fighting climate change, aiding the poor, abolishing the death penalty.
They're missing the pope's most consistent drumbeat on a policy issue, whether liberal or conservative. Religious liberty and the freedom of conscience.
In both words and actions, Pope Francis issued a clarion call for religious freedom throughout his American tour.
In the opening words of the pope's first major event—his visit to the White House—he insisted on a robust respect for the "right to religious liberty." Calling it "one of America's most precious possessions," the Pope urged that religious freedom be defended "from everything that would threaten or compromise it."
Pope Francis' pitch to President Obama on religious freedom was significant in two additional ways that are subtle but equally powerful. First, the pope framed his remarks as a foil to the dominant cultural push for "toleran[ce]" and against "discrimination." Those are the labels used by President Obama and the same-sex marriage and abortion movements to crush freedom of conscience, for wedding photographers, cake bakers, churches, pro-life doctors, religious hospitals, and families in business. The Pope insisted that those trends not be used to compromise religious freedom.
The pope also endorsed what "my brothers, the United States Bishops, have reminded us" in their own religious freedom campaign. That campaign has been unswerving in defense of freedom of conscience, so much so that liberal critics within the Catholic Church have often ridiculed it. The U.S. Bishops' most recent efforts have been catalyzed by, and have spoken courageously against, President Obama's mandate that abortifacients and birth control be covered in the health insurance plans of objecting citizens and organizations.
Which brings us to one of the most striking gestures of Pope Francis' visit. On the same day as his White House meeting, the pope made an unscheduled visit to the Little Sisters of the Poor. This was not a mere visit to a group of nuns. The official Vatican spokesman said it was "obviously" a show of support for the Sisters' lawsuit against Obamacare's abortion-pill mandate.
For perspective on the significance of this event, consider that some people criticized the pope for not meeting with political dissidents before he left Cuba. In America, he made sure to embrace people who have been targeted for punishment by their government, simply because they want to live and serve in society without being forced to violate their consciences regarding the sanctity of human life and sexuality.
Pope Francis reiterated his defense of religious freedom by exhorting Congress to deal with heated social conflicts by respecting "convictions of conscience." At the United Nations he called religious freedom an "absolute minimum" for justice. At Ground Zero he urged us to resist "every attempt to impose uniformity" in religious matters.
Pope Francis echoed the theme against forced uniformity at his keynote address of the "Meeting for Religious Liberty" on Independence Mall in Philadelphia, where the U.S. Constitution was drafted. There the pope called religious freedom a "fundamental right," not just for private worship but "in the public square" and as "part of the culture. "Pluralism, the pope explained, does not require compromise of religious freedom, but on the contrary demands respect for it.
Pope Francis capped off this theme on his return flight to Rome. He was asked whether government officials also possess religious freedom, such as "in issuing marriage licenses to same sex couples."
The pope's answer put an exclamation point on a visit permeated with exhortations in favor of religious liberty and freedom of conscience. "Conscientious objection is a right, and part of the body of all human rights. Conscientious objection must enter into every juridical structure. If a government official is a human person, he has that right."
These are not surprising words considering it was revealed that Pope Francis met with Kim Davis, privately, after addressing Congress. His words of encouragement to her were, "Thank you for your courage. Stay strong."
The Pope's amazing private action shows that his public drumbeat on religious freedom was no afterthought. It was at the heart of his mission to the United States.
Update: Regarding the Vatican's latest statement, during his visit to the United States Pope Francis championed religious freedom, the U.S. bishops' campaign, and the Obamacare lawsuits. In addition he thanked Kim Davis, whether or not that included the case in "all its complex aspects".

"We had no domestic attacks under Bush," said Giuliani.CNNPoliticoThe White House sought to reassure Americans that it had no intention of invading Yemen or Somalia, and also that the State of the Union address would not conflict with the season premiere of "Lost." "I don't foresee a scenario in which the millions of people that hope to finally get some conclusion in 'Lost' are preempted by the president," said Press Secretary Robert Gibbs.New York TimesAP NewsSenator Harry Reid apologized for saying, during the 2008 presidential campaign, that Obama was a viable candidate because he was "light-skinned" and had "no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one." G.O.P. Chairman Michael Steele called on Reid to step down as Senate majority leader over his "anachronistic language"; Steele also called the current Republican platform "one of the best political documents that�??s been written in the last 25 years," adding, "honest Injun on that."New York TimesChicago TribuneAn effigy of Obama was hanged over a sign that celebrates Jimmy Carter in Carter's hometown of Plains, Georgia.New York Times
Seven coalition soldiers and one embedded British journalist were killed in attacks in Afghanistan. A military spokesman said that an increasing number of such deaths were likely in the future.

Years ago, I lived in Montana, a land of purple sunsets, clear streams, and snowflakes the size of silver dollars drifting through the cold air. There were no speed limits and you could legally drive drunk. My small apartment in Missoula had little privacy. In order to write, I rented an off-season fishing cabin on Rock Creek, a one-room place with a bed and a bureau. I lacked the budget for a desk. My idea was to remove a sliding door from a closet in my apartment and place it over a couple of hastily cobbled-together sawhorses.

Kimora Lee and Djimon Hounsou have reportedly separated, according to the NY Daily News.
A source close to the couple says the two have split after a "big fight over money."
In other Kimora news, the Trulia Luxe Living blog reported last week that Kimora, the creative director and president of shopping web site JustFab.com, was putting her six-bedroom, eight-bath Beverly Hills country home on the market at a loss.
Simmons reportedly paid $5.9 million for the home at the height of the market in 2007 and has now listed it for just $4.7 million.
On Monday, Simmons responded via Twitter to speculation the house sale was a sign of financial difficulty.
"Wow, I put 1 of several properties I own (+ DONT live in) on the market & now apparently my whole life is fallin apart?!" she tweeted. "Rumors, Rumors …"

With so much of the focus on players like Cam Newton, Ryan Mallett, Julio Jones, and Patrick Peterson (did I mention Cam Newton yet?), I thought it would be more beneficial to review the performances of some of the lesser known names from this year's draft class. Here is a breakdown of several workouts from this week that seemed to slide under the radar.
Helped Themselves
RBs – Delone Carter, Syracuse and Allen Bradford, USC
While neither back lit the world on fire with their workouts, both ran 40s in the mid 4.5s, and in doing so probably solidified themselves as day two picks. The NFL is full of mid to late round RBs that have become excellent starting backs, and Carter and Bradford have the combination of power and short area quickness to become that caliber of player.
Jordan Cameron, TE USC
After the immense success of Antonio Gates in San Diego, teams are now always on the lookout for the next big basketball player-turned NFL stud. Last year it was Jimmy Graham from Miami, who became a key part of New Orleans' high powered offense by December of his rookie year, and this year Cameron may be that guy. After a big East West shrine week, Cameron blew up at the combine, showing the elite athleticism at the position that today's NFL craves. Despite having very little football experience, don't be surprised to see him squeak into the end of day 2 of this year's draft.
Derek Newton, OT Arkansas State
Newton wasn't a very physical player on film, but I expected him to show off his athleticism at this year's combine. Newton delivered, running a 5.01 40 and showing off impressive balance and leverage on drills. He goes from being a priority free agent to a draftable prospect, which is huge considering the uncertainty behind how the league will handle UFAs in light of the CBA conflict.
Ryan Bartholomew, OC Syracuse
Despite being a lesser known prospect Bartholomew came into this year's combine well prepared, posting the top bench press for offensive linemen and a sub-5.0 40, as well as some of the top numbers across the board at his position for the remaining drills. While his performance certainly turned heads, he does not have the film to match, and should still remain a day 3 selection.
The more I watch Sheard the more I believe he belongs amongst the top 15 players of this year's draft class. At the combine he quietly ran an impressive 4.69 40 and looked athletic in drills. If he can convince teams his off the field concerns (he was arrested after throwing a man thru a glass door last summer) are a thing of the past, he could hear is name called much earlier on April 28th than some are expecting.
Hurt Themselves
While Clay lost a reported 40 lbs and weighed in at 230, he ran as slow as most of the fullbacks at 4.87 on his 40 yard dash. Despite the drastic weight cut, he still looked slow and plodding on drills. In all likelihood he will need to move to fullback if he is to play in the NFL.
Gabe Carimi, OT Wisconsin
Carimi was the only lineman to fall during drills, and considering his issues on film the incident should not be dismissed as quickly as some of the NFL Network analysts did. At Wisconsin Carimi looked extremely stiff at times, and had a bad habit of stopping his feet, bending at the waist and quickly falling off blocks. His all around performance at the combine did nothing to change my opinion that he is limited to right tackle only in the NFL.
Orie Lemon, ILB Oklahoma State
While teams should be reluctant to lower draft grades too far based off a poor combine performance, Lemon's showing could cause him to fall off draft boards completely. He ran a pedestrian 4.99 40, but more importantly struggled mightily in positional drills, as he literally stumbled and bumbled throughout his workout. He needs a big pro day in order to prove that his combine performance was simply an off day.
Jeremy Beal, OLB Oklahoma
At this year's Senior Bowl week I felt that Beal struggled to stand out athletically over players like Purdue's Ryan Kerrigan, and this was even more apparent while on the clock at the combine. For a player that is expected to be a 3-4 rush linebacker, he simply lacks the burst and all around athleticism to be a consistent threat rushing the passer.
Kendric Burney, CB North Carolina
This was never going to be Burney's arena, as on film he clearly lacks the long speed and natural athleticism of a starting NFL corner. However, running in the 4.7 range usually proves to be a killer for CBs, especially when you take into account his lack of size. Although he demonstrates toughness and instincts with his on the field play, expect him to fall to day 3 unless he improves his time significantly at his pro day.

Jenny is pretty blonde, with young and light tanned body. She hasn`t very much experiences in movies, but she is very well known from movie Devil You Know, where she hadn`t problems to show nudity. In this movie, she revealed almost everything.
She's a successful girl for sure. How else could it be that her bathroom boasts a bathtub AND a shower? Imagine how she gets undressed and soaps up that sexy body. Stroking her wonderful titties and the shaved pussy. So yummy!
Before going to the shower she had an amazing experience. Jennifer lay down on the bed and spread her legs, giving me a perfect view of her ass. She'd never dreamed that I was going to work it up in such a line, hot fashion. Now, Jennifer took a deep breath. She could feel the oil being squeezed into her ass. Jennifer loved the way that felt, how it went all inside of her. Then, my busy fingers spread Jennifers ass and pushed the dildo inside. Fortunately, it was only seven or eight inches, it went in easily.
She has a kinda seductive look in her eyes. So i guess the photo was taken by her boyfriend. Oh lucky guy. Or maybe it's a girlfriend :), that would be amazing. Jenni making love to another girl is a fantasy of mine.
God, how hot Jennifer would get if a girl were to tell her that she had jerked me in her face! She didn't think that Jenni would be happy by it, knowing Jennifer as she did. Maybe she would confess about the sexy guy the next time that she and Jennifer got together for a little playtime. It would certainly be a wild thrill to tell the blonde woman what she had done, in all the juicy details. It would probably excite both of them so much that the following session would be better than ever, if that was even possible.
Wow she has a sexy body! I love this picture, it's not exactly nude but it gets really really close. Maybe that's why it is so sexy in the first place. At first i wasn;t really sure that this is Jennifer, but it really is.
I'd press my mouth against those black panties, nibbling with my lips, flicking the plaything beneath it with my tongue, until I'd forget the heat and bury my hands in her hair and tug her up, over me, desperate to feel beneath it. I've knelt between her legs and held her sexy body over me. Our eyes locked together, and she always held off her sexy nipples. No matter how slow or comfortable it started, she couldn't be happy without the rough friction of my tongue. We'd end in this bed together, sweaty and slick, sliding against each other as that bed creaked and groaned under our combined weight.
This is the kind of bikini i love! All you have to do is pull on one of those strings and you will be rewarded by a pair of hot boobies or a tight little ass. The only question that remains is: "What are you more interested in?".
I'd pull quickly on the pantie string and to see her sexy booty and put a nice dildo in her asshole. Then i'd watch as the ass stayed open for a few second before closing up. Before i would have the chance to see it close completely, Jenny would of course had already pulled her panties up over her ass covering her soaking pussy and tight ass. Yeah i imagine she would like it that much! But Jennifer is shy so she would put her panties back to the proper place and blush.
At least you can be 100% sure it's an amateur photo. And there's also no doubt that it's nude :). I mean she's nude, her boobs are not covered up.
I stood beside the bed on shaky legs, rubbing a hand over the small of Jennis' bony back, muttering something. My brain hadn't had enough blood supply for a couple of minutes, at least. Jennifer stirred and turned her head to gaze at me with eyes full of wonder. I was well and truly fucked! I will never be rid of her! I didn't want to be, really. Jenni stopped, and I knew it was because she didn't have any words and I didn't either! My cock plopped out of her warm pussy truly drained. Her eyes got big and she wailed.
Because at first, we clearly see, that, she washs herself in shower and she is very hot there. She is all naked and you can see her little round, cute boobs and firm butt. She is all wet. In next shots does some kissing stuff with some guy and he is cuddling her breasts and all wet body. There are many bed scenes too. In which you could see her dark fluffy bush, nice tits and whole perfect body.

It's December. What do we do in December? Aside from all that uselessly stressful "shopping" for "presents" and doing daily calculations for the correct amount of layers to properly brave Mother Nature (that bitch), December is the season we don sequins, silver and copious amounts of glitter. Like Burning Man, but less naked. How else are we supposed to actually enjoy this time of year?

Jose Aldo is defending his featherweight championship this Saturday in Houston, Texas against Kenny Florian. Florian is in his second fight at featherweight, and will face a big step up in competition against the Brazilian knockout artist. This will be an entertaining fight, and has big implications for the loser.
Florian's first fight at featherweight was against Diego Nunes, and KenFlo was able to grind out a decision. He looked good at 145, and proved that it's a weight he can hang at.
Jose Aldo won the belt back at WEC 44, and hasn't looked back. He's catapulted himself up the pound-for-pound rankings, while destroying everyone put in front of him.
At UFC 136 this is on the card as the co-main event, but it could turn out to be the biggest fight of the night.

Games to Watch
No. 9 Pittsburgh vs. No. 1 Florida
No. 1 seeds were able to maintain their all-time undefeated record against No. 16 seeds in the round of 64, but greater challenges certainly await in the third round. The Florida Gators are the No. 1 overall seed in the tournament after going undefeated in SEC play, but they have an extremely difficult opponent on their hands in the form of the Pittsburgh Panthers.
After a win over North Carolina and a narrow defeat to Virginia in the ACC tournament, Pitt came to play in Orlando, Fla. as it decimated Colorado in the second round. Florida, on the other hand, looked lethargic for much of its game against Albany, although it was able to win by a 12-point margin by the time it was all said and done.
According to Jon Rothstein of CBSSports.com, a similar effort simply won't cut it against Pittsburgh:
Florida will need to be much sharper on Saturday to advance past Pitt. Gators will need all hands on deck to get to the Sweet 16.— Jon Rothstein (@JonRothstein) March 20, 2014
ESPN's Dick Vitale is in full agreement as he lauded the Panthers for their mental toughness, which is something the Gators must counteract:
Gators face stiff test Sat vs Pitt-Florida winning discipline will be difference maker vs a good tough minded group from Pitt!#dickievpicks— Dick Vitale (@DickieV) March 22, 2014
There is no question Pittsburgh has the ability to knock off Florida, particularly if the combination of forwards Lamar Patterson and Talib Zanna play like they did against the Buffaloes. At the same time, Florida should have enough beef in the paint, including Patric Young and Dorian Finney-Smith, to counteract Pitt's post offense.
Add in the fact that Florida will have the best player on the floor in the form of Casey Prather, and the Gators should have enough to survive a big scare.
No. 12 Harvard vs. No. 4 Michigan State
The East Region brings college basketball fans a particularly intriguing matchup between perhaps the most popular Cinderella team in the entire bracket and one of the chic picks to win it all. No. 12 Harvard did what many expected in the round of 64 by dispatching of No. 5 Cincinnati, while Tom Izzo's Michigan State Spartans continued to roll with a win over No. 13 Delaware.
Michigan State won the Big Ten tournament in somewhat surprising fashion and may very well be in better form than any other team right now. That goes double for senior forward Adreian Payne, who dropped 42 points and made all 17 of his free-throw attempts against the Fightin' Blue Hens. The Spartans utilized a one-man show of sorts, while the Crimson proved that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
It was impossible to not be impressed by Harvard's win over Cincy, and Bearcats head coach Mick Cronin had a courtside seat. According to Mike Griffith of MLive.com, Cronin doesn't believe that teams should be fooled by the fact that Harvard plays in the Ivy League.
In my mind, (Thursday's) game was anything but an upset. They got a great team. Tough draw for us. In my opinion they're one of the best teams we played all year ... (Harvard) had us playing from behind all night, and it allowed them to do some things offensively because we were trying to come from behind all night. They're a high major team. They got real players. They got high major players. They can play against anybody. They're a very good team.
One can only assume that Izzo is well aware of how dangerous the Crimson are. Few coaches have had more tourney success than Izzo, so the Spartans are well equipped to deal with a hungry team like Harvard. The Crimson are going to hang in there, but Payne, Gary Harris, Keith Appling and Michigan State's elite core will prove to be too much for Harvard to handle.
No. 7 Connecticut vs. No. 2 Villanova
Connecticut and Villanova have had some great Big East battles over the years, and even though the Huskies have moved on to the American Athletic Conference, the rivalry still exists. UConn has come out on top more often than not when these teams have met, but the Wildcats are favored this time around as a No. 2 seed.
Which round of 32 game are you most excited about?
Nova enjoyed a fantastic season, but it squandered a chance to nab a No. 1 seed by inexplicably losing to a mediocre Seton Hall team in the Big East tournament. Villanova rebounded with a 20-point win over No. 15 Milwaukee in the round of 64, bu the Huskies pose a much stiffer challenge.
UConn has won six of its past eight games, and it owns victories over tournament teams like Florida, Harvard, Memphis and Cincinnati. The Huskies are battle tested, and while they don't have the same depth of scoring that Nova does, they have a dominant player in guard Shabazz Napier. Connecticut won a national title a few years ago thanks almost exclusively to the play of Kemba Walker, and Napier is similar in many ways.
The Huskies looked so good down the stretch against Saint Joseph's in the round or 64 that CBS Sports' Jeff Borzello is confident in an upset.
Right now, I'm kinda glad I picked UConn over Villanova in the Round of 32.— Jeff Borzello (@jeffborzello) March 21, 2014
The most impressive part of UConn's win over St. Joe's was the manner in which it closed things out. According to Seth Davis of CBS Sports, the Huskies were nearly flawless from the charity stripe.
UConn 15 for 16 from foul line in OT. THAT's how you get Capone.— Seth Davis (@SethDavisHoops) March 21, 2014
If this game comes down the wire like many expect, then the advantage goes to a Connecticut team that seemingly thrives under pressure.

Super Mario Galaxy 2
rank them purple coin missions!
I had such a blast with Luigi's Purple Coins in SMG1 that I tried the self-imposed challenge of trying to get all 150 coins and the star within the time limit - with both Mario and Luigi - and eventually did it. What can I say? I found the frenetic pace of it all pretty fun, even though I don't always enjoy that kind of thing in other challenges. So yeah, the Coin Chaos one wasn't too daunting after that - though adding the shadow clones was pretty cool.
By the way... The most epic part of some of the purple coin challenges? The cold, heartless creatures at the end of them, who award the star if you succeed. Because...if you fail? Then you essentially get this reaction from the gearmo or woodland creature or whatever:
'Oh, you got 98 purple coins? That was close, nice job! But not close enough - and now I will take your soul!'
