Dear Molly: I typically play with players who bomb the ball farther than I do, and I'd love to move up to the next tee. But that would complicate our wager, not to mention I can just imagine the grief they'll give me. Can you help me save a little face please?
Maybe you're male, maybe you're female, but in either case you – and maybe even your friends – are playing from tees that make the golf course too long for your game. Dave Pierce, the USGA's Director of Research for the Green Section, says a survey of 20,000 golfers shows that about half the male players and three-fourths of the female players start too far back. Please check out "Which tees are best?" for details on how the USGA, CGA and others in the golf industry are endeavoring to remedy the situation.
The scenario you describe illustrates several reasons so many of us get this wrong. You're feeling peer pressure. You like the camaraderie of everyone teeing off from the same place. Your pride doesn't want you to be the only one moving up. You think you'll slow things down. And you worry about equalizing the wager.
Molly says, "Get over it." Dave says, "Just move up." If you've got an index, you convert it to the course handicap from the tees you're playing. So that will equalize the wager. The GHIN app will even do that for you. (If you don't have an index or GHIN app, click here to obtain both with a CGA membership!) Tell your friends the stats, and that courses are designed with certain obstacles that aren't coming into play for you because you can't reach them. Tell them you want to be more fairly challenged, and you want to be able to reach the green in regulation without dropping head covers all over the course. Tell them, in short, you want to have more fun.
If you're all walking, research indicates you'll actually move along faster by playing your best tees. If you're riding, try to match up cart mates by the tees they're playing.
About 10 years ago, I played a media round with three men, all of different ages and abilities, at a course ominously called The Dragon. Each of us decided to play the tees we thought best for our games, which meant four different sets of tees. At the end, we compared our net scores, and we were all right around par. It was a happy 19th hole!
You'll swallow your pride more easily once pars and birdies replace bogeys and doubles. And you can still hang out with your pals at their tees. Just don't be surprised if they soon join you at yours.
Molly McMulligan, created by golf journalist and CGA member Susan Fornoff, is the CGA's on-the-course advisor on how to have more fun on the golf course. She deeply appreciates the experiences and relationships golf has brought her as she's played everywhere from famed Cypress Point to a remote Scottish nine that had an honors collection box at check-in. Trust us, you don't want to take swing lessons from Molly. But if you've got a question about etiquette, relationships or the culture of golf in Colorado, Molly will find the answer.

Spotlight: Special Delivery
In the Post Theatrical theater festival, the mailbox is the stage for works from around the world.
Theater companies have wrestled with the question of what does and does not qualify as theater.
Does it need a stage? An audience? What's the inherent nature of the artform?
For much of the 20th and early 21st century, adventurous companies nudged at those borders. Then, 2020 made the question much more relevant; the idea of gathering audiences in front of physical stages was a non-starter in the face of COVID-19.
For most, that change meant turning screens into stages, finding innovative and engaging ways to present theatrical works digitally.
At the first Post Theatrical theater festival, however, digital presentations aren't enough. Companies participating in the innovative, global festival have looked past the screen — all the way to the mailbox.
Post Theatrical, a creation of Pittsburgh-based theater company RealTime Interventions, includes 13 companies from around the world, all offering original works that incorporate mailed materials. A ticket to an individual show includes both a mailed and digital component.
Though the product, and the experience, differs dramatically from show to show, Molly Rice, RealTime's co-artistic director, says that "each [artist] has come into this project with a theatrical mind," even as the end results diverge.
"They're using original [visual] art from artists as part of their projects. They're using robocalls. They're sending seedlings to people."
Rusty Thelin, co-artistic director at RealTime, says the concept grew out of a virtual laboratory organized by The Orchard Project, a New York-based organization that provides support for theater creators. He says they got involved with The Orchard Project last year via sessions dubbed "The Liveness Lab." "How do we investigate and maintain the feeling of liveness, and what does liveness mean in relation to art in the time we're living in?"
Thelin says the connections and ideas that came from that lab led to partnerships in the Post Theatrical festival. "One of the things that came up was this idea of analog experiences that were tactile." In an age defined by visual interactions on screens, the idea of physically interacting with an object became alluring.
RealTime approached the festival not by attempting to find projects that fit into strict parameters but rather by working with creators to flesh out and develop ideas. That meant coordinating details with creators and performers worldwide — and also in Pittsburgh, via a collaboration with Demaskus Theater Collective.
Demaskus is in the midst of presenting its original work, "Black Mary," as part of the festival. The show explores the life of Mary "Black Mary" Fields, who in the 19th century became the first Black woman U.S. star route mail carrier.
"The experience centers around her life," says Shaunda McDill, the founder of Demaskus working on "Black Mary." "She was born into slavery in the 1830s. She ended up moving to take care of this woman who was a nun — and to help teach and educate in Montana," before delivering U.S. mail on an independent route to the convent.
The interactive portion of that journey is already complete; early ticket buyers spent a month interacting, via mail and text message, with Demaskus members and collaborators. Playwright Kim El mailed writing and journal prompts, asking participants to share their thoughts; meanwhile, the Rev. Leah C.K. Lewis, a pastor, lawyer, writer and event producer, communicated via text, taking on the virtual role of Black Mary in guiding audience members through their reactions to the story. "I think we wanted to make sure that we were responsible with the lives that are participating," McDill says, "and actually making a contribution toward their healing and liberation."
Based in part on the submitted writings of participants, El has written a filmed, culminating performance, with actress and Demaskus member Karla C. Payne playing Black Mary. That finished project, which has been divided into several episodes, will be released June 17-19 — Juneteenth weekend — in a mixed-format video presentation.
"Ultimately, what we want the viewer to come away with is learning about Mary — being immersed in the life of this amazing, powerful, Black woman," says Payne. "This is an opportunity to engage the audience and introduce a large, looming character that a lot of people may not know about."
Meanwhile, RealTime's own contribution to the festival, "The Birth of Paper," is making its way, via post, to Beirut, Lebanon. A loose adaptation of a previous work by Rice — which RealTime had decided to remount even before The Liveness Lab — "The Birth of Paper" will see handmade gifts and items delivered to Lebanese recipients. Those gifts, made via partnerships with Handmade Arcade and other Pittsburgh-based makers, will be sent alongside the letters that are the text of this unconventional show. One performer in Beirut — Milia Ayache, who performed in Pittsburgh as the star of RealTime's "Anglemakers" — will open and read envelopes containing Rice's writing as part of a live-streamed performance in June.
Rice, who originally produced "The Birth of Paper" in 2003, ends the performance with an invitation to the audience: write back to her.
"I got letters for two years," she says. "It was such an amazing discovery that there was this additional layer of tactile communication that could come from a live event."
Other projects ongoing as part of the festival include "Journey of a Dream," an online exhibition of videos from children, and "Capricorn 29," a work of science fiction unfolding via a YouTube rabbit hole — and a mailed birthday card — inspired by the film "Logan's Run."
Thelin says while the festival was born out of the pandemic, it is not necessarily a limited-time idea.
"If we bring it back … we may switch it up to be a festival of 'remote' projects," Thelin says, "theatrical projects created to be enjoyed across time and space."
The future, of course, can wait. That is, after all, one of the lessons gained by waiting for a story to unfold slowly.
"That's part of the lesson the mail offers to us," Rice says. "Patience."

If you have children in metro Atlanta you must go to see Dr.Dattolo at Eyes on Town Lake, they took awesome care of my foster son Bryson!
Wow! So glad I got a Groupon to find this place! Great customer service, knowledgeable staff, reasonably priced. Dr. Jennifer is a doll! Will definitely use their services from now on, with or without a Groupon!
Love the staff here. They are awesome! Very friendly
Dr. Datollo Thank you for making my Type One Diabetic Baby Feel So Comfortable On Her 1st Eye Exam. You Are One In A Million.
Dr. Dattolo and her staff were absolutely amazing with my 5yr old . They took their time to make sure his exam was thorough all while embracing his wild imagination . Hands down the best Dr we have ever experienced !
Dr. Dattolo has been my eye doctor since I was in the 4th grade; I am now 29 years old. I gladly followed her and her staff to the new, Woodstock location, and couldn't be more proud of what her and her team have accomplished. Dr. Dattolo and her staff have taken care of me for years, and I wouldn't trust anyone else with my eyes. Professional, friendly, and hospitable are just some of the words that come to mind when I think of the folks at Eyes on Towne Lake. I would recommend their services any day of the week.
When we came into your office for my daughters eye exam we didn't know we had VSP insurance. I would like to thank your receptionist for taking the time to call another practice and pulled some strings to get my daughter seen the same day, especially since school starts in a few days. That service alone will make us come back if we ever change vision insurance plans. Sorry I don't know your name. Thanks!!!!!
Great location, eye glass selection and STAFF. All 3 ladies were a blast. If you have children please bring them to this location. They are great with kids. Smiles and laughs the whole visit. ?
I took my 17yr old son to Eyes on Towne Lake for the 1st time yesterday and we were both really impressed. Great service, easy process to become a new patient, and the office and staff were really easy to work with. Highly recommended!
My daughter is already reading so much better, and with more ease and confidence after just one therapy session!!

No industry is safe when it comes to cyberattacks, but the financial services sector is increasingly becoming a primary target for cybercriminals. According to Boston Consulting Group research, financial services firms experience up to 300 times as many cyberattacks per year compared to those in other industries.
This unique challenge that financial firms face is now exacerbated especially as cybercriminals become more determined and sophisticated in their attack methods. In Singapore, 64% of financial services organisations witnessed significantly more sophisticated cyberattacks over the last 12 months, while 62% had seen more than a 50% increase in attack frequency, based on recent research we conducted at VMware Carbon Black.
The dramatic advancement of attacks against the financial industry can be attributed to three key factors: First, the Covid-19 pandemic has forced many employees to work remotely, further widening the attack surface and making them easier targets. Second, cybercrime syndicates have in recent years been adopting newer attack methodologies, which traditional cybersecurity controls cannot defend against. Lastly, cybercriminals are, in some cases, being seen as patriots by their respective nations and acting as nefarious "cyber Robin Hoods".
Banking on Covid-19
According to recent data, cyberattacks against the financial sector increased by 238% from February to April, amid the Covid-19 surge. Cybercriminals often work to exploit fear and uncertainty during major world events through cyberattacks, and the pandemic is no exception.
In fact, notable spikes in attacks can also be correlated to key days in the Covid-19 news cycle. On Feb 29, there was a 66% spike in attacks over baseline levels when multiple states in the US declared Covid-19 a public health emergency. When the World Health Organization declared Covid-19 a pandemic on March 11, there was a 22% spike in attacks. This suggests attackers are being opportunistic and leverage breaking news to take advantage of vulnerable populations.
Attackers have been using Covid-19 to launch watering hole attacks, spear-phishing attacks, application attacks and ransomware. This can be increasingly damaging to the economic landscape as unemployment rates increase and a recession begins. It is clear the attackers are not slowing down, making it more important to understand their behaviours.
Following the money: Understanding attacker tactics
Financial institutions have reported that cybercriminals are becoming more sophisticated, leveraging highly targeted social engineering attacks and advanced procedures for hiding malicious activity. The criminals' goal is to exploit weaknesses in people, processes and technology in order to infiltrate the network and gain the ability to transfer funds and withdraw sensitive data.
While social engineering is still very prevalent, there has been a shift away from spear phishing toward island-hopping — a tactic where attackers try to gain a foothold of one organisation to then jump to additional targets in their network.
The modern cybercriminal understands that it is more lucrative to island-hop from the bank's environment in order to attack its customers, which is why there are a variety of island-hopping attacks seen today. In fact, island-hopping has more than tripled in attack frequency and is now the most commonly experienced attack for 10% of Singaporean business, causing 12% of breaches in the last 12 months.
The most common attacks seen in the financial sector is reverse business email compromise. These attacks occur when a hacker successfully takes over a victim's email server and executes fileless malware attacks against members of the organisation as well as the board. This has become much easier for attackers to execute successfully as more employees are working from home, where network security can be more easily compromised.
Another common tactic seen among cybercriminals today is watering-hole attacks, which today make up one in every five attacks on financial institutions. In these cases, hackers target and hijack a website frequently visited by partners or customers of the organisation they are trying to breach. This tactic is increasing as cybercriminals recognize the implicit trust consumers have in bank brands.
Hackers aim to identify popular websites where people are looking to gain information from. In today's economic uncertainty, many people are looking to financial institutions to help them through trying times, and unfortunately hackers are taking advantage of that.
Escalating a bank heist to a hostage situation
Cybercriminals are escalating their attacks as they fight back to maintain persistence. If it cannot be stolen, it will be destroyed — similar to burning a house down versus robbing it. Increasingly, destructive attacks are also being leveraged as counter incident response techniques. Trust and confidence can be undermined as cybercriminals appreciate that it is more valuable to commandeer the digital transformation efforts of the financial institution than to target its customers directly.
To battle against this, financial institutions must conduct regular cyber threat hunting exercises to root out any persistent attacker that might already be in the organisation. A shift to an intrinsic security model must occur, one where security is built in and not bolted onto the enterprise. Security teams must integrate security controls, microsegment, employ just-in-time authentication and modernize their endpoint security controls to mitigate the modern bank heist.
As the public health crisis continues, it is clear attackers will continue to target vulnerable populations and organisations, with an eye on finance. Increased vigilance and visibility into enterprise-wide endpoint activity are more paramount than ever. Cybersecurity is now a brand protection imperative, and the trust and confidence in the safety and soundness of a financial institution will depend on it.

Chelsea Bailey has Down syndrome. She is 18 years old but is often mistaken for a younger child (which annoys her) because she is small. When she entered high school, her mother Diane was a little nervous.
"I thought she would get eaten alive," Diane said.
Four years later, Diane can laugh about this. Her daughter is a senior at East Hartford High. She's on the swim team, she's a member of the National Honor Society, she plans on going to college and her East Hartford swim teammate Sasha Konovalova calls her "the most popular girl in the school."
Much of this has to do with swimming – and inclusion – as well as Chelsea's determination, hard work and adaptability. When Chelsea went to freshmen orientation four years ago, she was approached by members of the swim team who were helping. They found out she swam in Special Olympics. You should be on the swim team, they said.
And so she went to practice and four years later, her swim times have improved, she has made friends and everybody knows Chelsea – officials, other teams, other coaches.
"She walks around the school and everybody knows her and says, 'Hi Chelsea,'" her mom said. "I'm like, Who's that? She's like, 'Ummm...'"
Chelsea, who has been in the pool since she was a year old, swims in the 50-yard freestyle as an exhibition event, which doesn't count for scoring. Her freshman year, she would swim the 50 in 1 minute, 42 seconds and in four years, has cut her time down to 53.87. On Tuesday, in East Hartford's 97-79 win over E.O. Smith, she finished the race in 55 seconds.
"This is not competitive for her because she's not swimming for points," Diane said. "But the personal growth she's had and the confidence it's built in her for being part of this team is amazing."
[ Connecticut high school runner Lizzy Cappelli may be blind, but she can see life's possibilities with great clarity ]
"I'm more confident," Chelsea said. "I can make new friends."
Chelsea's older sister Courtney was born prematurely and so when Diane became pregnant with Chelsea, the pregnancy was considered high-risk and she was tested constantly.
"Originally they were looking for dwarfism," Diane said. "Her long bone growth was two weeks behind gestationally. She had none of the markers for Down syndrome. None of the markers for dwarfism. At 34 weeks gestation – which is when Courtney was born – they did a Level 2 ultrasound and her measurements were exact to her sister's at birth. So they're like, 'She's just going to be a small baby' and she was born a week later with Down syndrome."
It became apparent quickly that Chelsea adapted to adversity. She couldn't hear well but she learned to talk, something that even her speech therapist couldn't figure out.
She has hearing aids that she didn't like to wear for a long time because they made her feel different.
"She always thought the fact that she wore hearing aids is what made her different, not Down syndrome," Diane said.
She has had all A's in her classes, which are modified to her level of understanding and ability, the last two years. She came home with the National Honor Society paperwork, filled it out and brought it back to school. She met all the criteria, including volunteer hours, and was inducted.
"She works hard," her mother said. "She worked hard to get National Honor Society. Yes, she does modified work. But that work is just as hard for her to do and get straight A's as a typical peer."
[ Vote for the CT Varsity Athletes of the Week ]
She writes a blog (dictated to her mom) called "A Little Bit Different, A Lot The Same: Growing Up With Down syndrome." She's been an advocate for people with "different abilities," which she prefers to the word "disabilities.' She attended a leadership conference at UConn last summer. She has been accepted into a program called "College Steps" so she can attend college next year. She played soccer for eight years and plays Unified basketball. She sings in chorus. Her favorite subject is English.
In the pool, Chelsea wears bigger goggles – that way, water won't go up her nose when she does a flip turn because she used to get chronic sinus infections. And she doesn't dive into the pool for her race; she uses a ladder to climb in.
Chelsea was an honorary captain Tuesday at the E.O. Smith meet. She and the other captains led the cheer before the divers competed:
"D-I-V (clap-clap-clap) E-R-S (clap-clap-clap) East Hartford divers (clap- clap-clap) are the best (clap-clap-clap)."
"When we came in from Day 1, we were all treated the same," Konovalova said. "All the rookies start off in Lane 1, no matter what your talent is. If you're new, you go to Lane 1 and they talk to you. They explain what the team is and that's when we get separated. But with Chelsea, no one was like, 'You're going to be in this lane by yourself.' She was always with someone, she was always with us.
[ Tobias Tello is a 15-year-old runner at Cheshire High but cross country distances are much too short for him ]
"Ever since then, every single year, we include her in everything. No one ever thinks she's different. It's the best having her here. The other teams love her too, they cheer for her every single meet and it's just so nice."
Some of the swimmers went to the Buddy Walk, which celebrates individuals with Down syndrome, with Chelsea in September in New Britain and a large group went her freshman year to the walk at Rentschler Field.
"Chelsea being on our team is no different than anybody else being on our team," East Hartford coach Leigha Knapp said. "She fits right in. The girls love her. She's at practice every day, working her butt off every day.
"It's beautiful. I don't think people realize the culture we have down here at the pool. It's kind of in its separate area. It's not like a top sport. Whether we're winning or losing, the girls are 100 percent in it and Chelsea's right there with them."

The Ranger$ are six games away from carving a niche in NHL history that when the time comes their employees probably won't be including on their respective resumes.
Barring a resurrection as unexpected as someone in the Ranger or Garden hierarchy actually standing up to accept responsibility for the organization's personnel moves and free agent signings, the Blueshirts are about to become only the fourth team ever to miss the playoffs three straight times within six years of winning the Stanley Cup, and the first franchise ever to achieve the dubious distinction twice.
There were the Maple Leafs, who won the Cup in 1922 (as the Toronto St. Patricks), and then missed the tournament in 1926, 1927 and 1928. There were the Rangers of — all together, now; you, too, Islander fans — 1940, who then missed the playoffs in 1942, 1943, 1944, 1945 and 1946. And there were the Oilers, who after winning their fifth Cup in seven years in 1990, sold off their marquee players and thus missed the postseason in 1993, 1994, 1995 and 1996.
Now, here come these Rangers, who, with six games to go in a season that ends two weeks from tomorrow, are alive only on a ventilator, waiting for someone to pull the plug. Beginning tomorrow at Joe Louis Arena and concluding the next night at the Garden, there are two against the Red Wings. There is one at Boston, and one at Washington. There's one at home against the Canadiens, and the Apr. 9 finale at home against the Flyers.
Then, the first day of the hat trick summer, though, Theo Fleury did hasten to note after Thursday's pretty routine stay-from-behind 4-1 loss to the Caps, "Stranger things have happened in this game." Thankfully, no one was either foolish or obnoxious enough to ask him to cite a hockey example of such an unworldly intervention.
If, however, something extremely bizarre does not occur, the Rangers will also become one of just 23 teams to miss the playoffs at least three straight times since the original 1967 expansion. Only four of the previous 21 (the Blackhawks this year are also missing their third straight), managed to make it in the fourth season.
League documentation is not available, but it is believed the Rangers also would become the first team ever to miss the playoffs three straight years while spending an aggregate $145 million in payroll funds to do so.
Here's kind of an interesting statistic: While 22-5-2 in games they led after two periods, the Rangers also are 3-24-5 when trailing after two, so the aggregate final-period points lost/gained isn't a terribly significant number, after all … Rangers, 1-6-1 in their last eight, are facing the worst close to a season since 1992-93, when they lost their final seven and went 1-11 down the stretch to miss the playoffs to beget the organizational earthquake that begat Mike Keenan.
Derek Armstrong, recalled from Hartford where he led the Wolf Pack, was fourth in the AHL in scoring (26-52-78), got 3:10 of ice against the Caps while Petr Nedved, 40 percent (if that) double-shifted throughout the second and third periods while taking his customary unavenged pounding.

Senators Deliberate The Creation Of A Digital Dollar As China Continues Advancing In Digital Asset Space
US lawmakers discussed the creation of a US central bank digital currency — a tokenized and decentralized form of the US dollar — on Tuesday, June 30 at a hearing held by the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs.
Witnesses in attendance included co-founder and advocate for the Digital Dollar Project former chairman of the Commodities and Futures Trading Commission Christopher Giancarlo, visiting professor of Law at Duke University Nakita Cuttino and CEO and co-founder of Paxos Charles Cascarilla. The witnesses were called in front of the committee to discuss the feasibility of creating a digital dollar. The hearing comes weeks after a House Financial Technology Committee deliberated the same concept.
The leading motivation for creating a digital dollar comes from those intent on ensuring the dollar maintains its status as a leading world currency. At one point in the hearing, Giancarlo cited a 2018 survey which demonstrated that of 63 central banks surveyed, the majority are in the development stages of creating a central bank digital currency. Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) argued that the dollar must continually defend its leading position.
"The US dollar has to keep earning that place in the global payments system," he said. "It has to be better than bitcoin, or any other digital cryptocurrency, it has to be better than a digital yuan. Without digitization I worry the dollar may end up being like the best flip phone in 2006, or the best movie rental store in 2005 or best horse drawn carriage in the 1900s."
The People's Bank of China began testing its digital yuan in four cities two months ago, spurring some fear that the dollar is already in danger of being left behind. At a meeting of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference on Thursday, May 21 ten members proposed creating a cryptocurrency backed by a basket of currencies including China's yuan, Japan's yen, Hong Kong's dollar and South Korea's won.
"It will allow them to make direct payments in this new currency without having to go through foreign exchange markets — many of which are based in the United States — to convert currency using dollars as a settlement mechanism," Giancarlo said in response to the development.
Cascarilla and Giancarlo emphasized that the adoption of a central bank digital currency would signal an upgrade to the architecture of the United States' financial system. Weaknesses of the current system were revealed after thousands of individuals had to wait months to cash emergency stimulus checks issued in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Proponents of the digital dollar argue that the current accounts-based system often entails delayed payments, high costs and bureaucracy.
Despite adamant supporters of a US CBDC, lawmakers are grappling to understand the regulation and implementation implications of a digital dollar. Senator Mark Warner (D-VA) asked witnesses how the negotiation between privacy and anonymity would be handled in a CBDC.
"In an analog environment it's very easy to have privacy and anonymity be complicated together," Giancarlo responded. "As we go into a CBDC it's possible to make programming choices based upon policy developed in the public sector and then integrate it into the technology. What the digital environment gives us is the opportunity to make those decisions."

In a particularly fast-paced segment of the hearing, Senator Jon Tester (D-MT) pushed witnesses on how a CBDC would cater to those without a reliable phone or broadband connection. Giancarlo and Cascarilla both acknowledged that expanding reliable internet across the country would be an important precursor to a fully accessible digital currency.
"This isn't a small part of the country [without broadband] it may be fly over and it may be rural but there are still businesses there that are going to need this that are — if this works as you guys said in your statement- they're going to get outcompeted by businesses that have broadband," Tester said.
Giancarlo emphasized that the path to a US CBDC begins with launching small pilot projects to begin learning and experimenting with what a digital dollar would look like.

StepMom Videos Review
StepMom Videos
StepMomVideos.com is a simple premium porn site dedicated to naughty moms who love to fuck. They are a part of the Bang Bros Network; thus, you know that they ensure quality.
But, whether Step Mom Videos is worth the visit or not, is not something I can't dictate. This mostly depends on what the fuck makes your dick hard, and whether you are willing to pay for your fap content.
The design is not really impressive…
I am not saying that you need to 'WOW' me with your design skills, but you could add a bit of spunk here and there… because right now, StepMomVideos has nothing that makes it look different from all the other sites I have visited.
I am pretty sure that I have seen many free porn sites with the same design. Oh well, at least the site has a lot of step-mommy content, and that is why we are all here, right?
Well, if you were expecting anything else but mommy content, then you must be a total moron because the name of the site basically tells you what you need to know about this place before you visit.
Now, we know that many premium porn sites like to promise a lot of bullshit, and some of them do follow through. But, is StepMomVideos.com actually worth all the commotion? You are free to continue reading to find out, or visit the site yourself.
User features are a bit sucky
I will say that I was not expecting the user features of a site from the BangBros network to suck, but here we are. There is nothing mention-worthy when it comes to their features, but there are a couple of things that pissed me off.
First of all; yes, I have registered and paid for the membership, thus I have access to all of their content. The design does not change much, and that is not a good thing when the design is already not that great.
However, the users do not get the option to comment on any of the videos or share their thoughts, and many of them have reported issues when it comes to cancelling their subscriptions. It is also worth mentioning that their overall search options are quite crappy as well.
Great MILF action!
While I disliked the design and the user features, I definitely enjoyed browsing through their content. I love to watch older beauties in their element, as they suck, ride and do all kinds of naughty acts.
This place might as well have been called the threesome step-mom videos since most of the scenes will feature a threesome. Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining, but they could have indicated the obvious niche instead.
With that said, there are lots of great porn videos for you to check out when you register. All the videos will feature a hot mommy and a hard pecker, and usually, there will be a teen chick in the mix, helping out the best way she can.
The scenes are quite different, and personally, I enjoyed watching those threesome fucking scenes, so I am sure that you will enjoy them as well. You have a hot step-mom, a slutty teen and a hard dick, it is like the perfect combo if you ask me.
Not that many scenes…
Again, I was disappointed to see that they only have about 50 scenes, which is certainly not enough for my dirty fapping sessions. However, all the videos are exclusive and they will be streamed in HD, which is a good thing, but also something that we all expect from a paysite.
All the videos will come with a set of images, and there are often a lot of images involved. You can download both the videos and the galleries in high quality if you prefer to collect this sort of shit.
Let's also not forget the fact that you get access to the Bang Bros Network, and that is obviously a big fucking plus. I mean, Bang Bros has a lot of amazing videos, in case StepMomVideos.com does not suit your taste.
So, what's the overall?
Well, I'd still say that StepMomVideos is a rather amazing porn site, simply because the videos that they do offer are fucking great, and you gain access to the full network. So, you have exclusive HD videos and images of, usually, threesome banging scenes with hot moms, or you can check out what else Bang Bros has to offer.

CLIFTON PARK — State police have charged two men who were teenagers at the time with criminally negligent homicide in the death of a 19-year-old in Clifton Park in 2017.
Authorities say the victim was left outside his home while highly intoxicated and died.
Police on Friday arrested Samuel Heroux, 21, of Cohoes, and Isaiah DePiazza, 19, of Foxwoods Drive, Clifton Park. Both were arraigned in Saratoga County Court and sent to the Saratoga County Jail pending a bail application hearing next week, troopers said.
Troopers in a press release identified Heroux, but not DePiazza, citing his age at the time of the alleged crime. His name appears, however, in court records that indicate both men were indicted last Monday by a Saratoga County grand jury — though the indictments weren't disclosed until after Friday's arrests.
The arrests stem from the death of Liam McGlinchey on Aug. 25, 2017. Police said they were called that day to a report of an unresponsive male in the driveway of a house on Rolling Brook Drive. Police who responded found McGlinchey dead.
An investigation revealed that McGlinchey had been out the previous night with friends, including Heroux and DePiazza, drinking alcohol. After McGlinchey became highly intoxicated, had difficulty walking and began falling, his friends decided to return him home.
Troopers said the two brought McGlinchey to his home and left him on a grassy area outside the house, where he subsequently died. Under New York state law, criminally negligent homicide doesn't require an intent to harm another person, but that a death is caused through negligent behavior. It is a Class E felony punishable by up to four years in prison.
Troopers said toxicology reports revealed McGlinchey's blood alcohol content at the time of his death was .40 — a lethal level of intoxication, according to multiple online sources. The University at Notre Dame indicates such a high level of alcohol in the blood induces coma and carries a high risk of death from respiratory arrest.
According to his obituary, McGlinchey had immigrated from Ireland within the previous year. He was a warehouse worker for the Hannaford supermarket in Clifton Park.
McGlinchey's mother, Helen Savastio, is a Shenendehowa High School graduate who now lives in Ireland. Savastio in an email after this story was initially published, called her son "highly intelligent," noting he enjoyed reading books including David Foster Wallace's "Infinite Jest" and Goethe's "Faust."

View All Artifort
Design Pierre Paulin, 1960
Beech shells, upholstery, steel
Made in Holland by Artifort
The Orange Slice armchair by designer Pierre Paulin is one of the most popular design armchairs in the world. This iconic armchair makes any room more cheerful, spacious and open.
Anyone who sees several Orange Slice chairs grouped together cannot fail to be touched by the playfulness of the composition. From different visual angles, the Orange Slice shows several stages of 'curl up'. In fact, the chair seems to change shape every time you look at it.
The armchair comprises two completely identical shells of pressed beech, covered with foam on a chromed or powdercoated metal frame.
Pierre Paulin (1927) made a considerable impression with a contemporary shell fauteuil, at an international furniture show organised by Kho Liang le. Shortly after the show, he became a freelance designer for Artifort. This marked the beginning of a long and fruitful collaboration. What makes his designs so distinctive is their striking sculptural shape, which earned Paulin many prizes worldwide. His work remains timeless and progressive even today. This is not form for form's sake but applied design. With comfort as the constant starting-point. Artifort still includes many of Paulin's designs dating from the nineteen-sixties and seventies in its permanent collection. His work can be admired in museums throughout the world. Apart from furniture, he also designed interiors for the French presidents Pompidou and Mitterrand in the Elysée Palace in Paris. Pierre Paulin died on 13 June 2009 in a hospital in Montpellier (France). The French president Sarkozy honoured him as "the man who made design an art". In November 2009, Paulin was posthumously awarded the distinction of "Royal Designer for Industry" (RDI)

Understanding the essence of UX/UI concepts is crucial for businesses. UX/UI has become a major thing because it has the power to bring customers closer. If you have a website, integrating UX/UI can help achieve the objectives of your business. Consider hiring a company for UI/UXdevelopment to reap the benefits involved. These helps cover customer preferences to improve satisfaction. Let us look at UX and UI and how they benefit businesses.
UX is simply user experience that refers to the general experience of the users or guests who come to your website. Therefore, this design coordinates the connection and interaction between the potential customer and the company. Today, the business has become competitive, and companies must find ways of keeping their customers happy. Improving user experience is crucial, and that is why UX design is vital. It ensures the connection between customer needs and business missions. With UX tools, it is possible to create products or services that match the current needs of your customers.
Application design may be challenging so it is important to know more about the cost to design an application beforehand. The average design cost in 2022 in the US ranges from $100 to $150 per hour. Pricing for UI UX design usually depends on the time and effort required for different stages of its creation.
UI/UX design services are extremely important in providing users with an understanding of how to use the platform. What is most important in this kind of design service is meeting the needs of the average user. In addition, they are essential for keeping the attention of the audience and building the professional reputation of the brand. UX services can make your product more attractive to users, who will then spend more time on the platform. This is important for the financial success of your product. Quality user experience design services can help SaaS companies get closer to their users and become more appealing in their eyes, which can result in increased client retention and customer satisfaction, as well as the improvement of business profitability. By communicating your business' values to users with the help of UI/UX design, you can increase opportunities for growth and improve performance.
The amount of time required to complete UI and UX design services can vary considerably, depending on the complexity of the project and the amount of work that is required. Also, the size of the team that is working on UX UI services may affect the period in which the design will be finished. Although each case has its own unique differences and tasks, it can take about 3 months to design an MVP. Usually, the amount of work can only be defined after plans and objectives are discussed.

Over the past couple of years, we have seen the entire world transform into a digital powerhouse, where everything now is digested through technology due to us being deep into the digital age. Due to this, virtually every industry has been transformed with most of the business now going online, and the entertainment business is no different to this and so we thought we'd look at some of the most popular form of entertaining yourself online.
One of the easiest and certainly most popular has been through online streaming services such as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video which has totally taken away from your standard cable television subscriptions. This is since these services are able to offer a wide library of the best television series and films in the world and from the past, and they are able to deliver these at a small monthly subscription fee. This has ensured that many consumers are now moving away from their expensive cable subscriptions and using these types of services as their primary way of watching television.
Moreover, another great way in which many of us have been entertaining ourselves is through gambling market and specifically thebestcasinos.co.uk listing some of the best betting sites on the market night now. The are one of the only casinos on the market that are offering the best odds on the non-gamstop market.
Another industry that has been able to benefit from the rapid rise in technology has been that of the gaming industry. Gaming has always been a popular past time for many of us but this has been through the arcades. Since the introduction of the internet, gaming has become more accessible for all of us as we are now using gaming consoles to game at home and online with our friends. Not only that, but mobile gaming has now become the fast-growing part of the industry due to just how cheap the games are and how many people have smartphones.
And finally, social media has become another great way in which we can entertain ourselves through online technologies and as we move forward, more and more social medias are coming out for us to indulge in. Some of the most popular ways in which people are now entertaining themselves through social media has been through YouTube, but TikTok is starting to take over and becoming one of the most popular applications on the internet with it being downloaded millions of times.

Ward's work on Stalin's Russia has seven chapters. Chapter 1 tries to explain the rise of Stalin. Chapter 2 focuses on the assessment of the industrialization campaign that happened between the years 1924 and 1941. Chapter 3 tries to capture the reasons for the collectivization drive that happened between the years 1927 and 1941 and the results of this drive. Chapter 4 illuminates different opinions that were aired regarding the origins and nature of purges that took place between 1928 and 1941. Chapter 5 entirely focuses on myriad sources, successes, and failures of the foreign policy that Stalin embarked on between 1922 and 1941. Conflicting appraisals of the war period and late Stalinism constitute chapter six of Ward's book. It is estimated that these activities must have transpired at the onset of the Second World War and proceeded even after the war. Chapter seven talks about different accounts given by different people in interpreting the role Stalin played and the changes he instigated in the culture of the Russians when he was at the helm of leadership. This essay will summarize all the seven chapters of Chris Ward's work on Stalin's Russia.

Ward registers that Stalinism is too big a phenomenon that cannot be merely interpreted in the context of socialism, communism, or totalitarianism. Ward notes that the distinct nature of Stalinism regime structure, how it relates to the state and the society, and how it has led to cultural transformation has prompted many researchers to apply the term Stalinist quite often compared to other terms like communist and socialist. Differentiation of the terminologies enables scholars to distinguish both implicitly and explicitly between Stalinist and other periods of history in the Soviet Union. This would help in warding off the notion that Stalinism was the product of Marxism. Ward emphatically notes that prior studies on Stalinism were insufficiently self-reflective and this formed the basis of his studies. Ward's work highlights intricacies that have dogged scholarly debate on the nature and causes of the Soviet Union's remarkable population losses, repressions, and brainwashing that Stalin engineered. Ward elaborately captures continuities between the policies Stalin put in place, the policies that were there in the pre-evolutionary Russia, and the similarity between Stalinism and administration and the ideological base of the mass murders that were witnessed in 20th century Europe.
Pertaining to collectivization, Ward (90) mentions Alec Nove's location of its origins both in the Bolshevik Weltanschauung and in cultural inheritance. Ward notes the Russian government was obviously aware of the relationship that there was between the agrarian revolution, the federation's economic strength, and the military might and how these would affect the general peace and tranquility of the populace. However, the government neglected the country's defenses (Ward 96). This was reflected in the words of a minister who retorted that the grains have to be exported even if people go hungry (Ward 96). Ward notes that the worst Stalinist economic policy was the heavy state involvement in the running of the economy. Stalin cracked a whip on his political enemies in the right and left party leadership, not because of personal differences but due to deprivation of intuitional basis, asserts Ward (110). Ward notes that Stalin perfected the use of disavowed egalitarianism in the treatment of employees. This was eventually applied in formulating educational policies when every student had to pay school fees to be enrolled in a secondary school (Ward 231). The Russian language was imposed on the citizenry of the Soviet Union as the official language. Family policies were very conservative and at that time, male homosexuality was outlawed. Stalinist cultural policy promoted nationalism and integrated aspects of racial discrimination and xenophobia. The last year of Stalin's rule was characterized by a disguised anti-Semitic campaign (Ward 243).

The purpose of this paper is to explore the applicability and utility of supply chain (SC) segmentation through demand profiling to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of infrastructure projects by identifying different types of project demand profiles.
A three-stage abductive research design was adopted. Stage 1 explored the applicability of SC segmentation, through demand profiling, to the portfolio of infrastructure projects in a utility company. Stage 2 was an iterative process of "theory matching", to the portfolio, programme and project management literature. In stage 3, theoretical saturation was reached and "theory suggestions" were made through four propositions.
Four propositions outline how SC segmentation through project demand profiling could improve the effectiveness and efficiency of infrastructure projects. P1: the ability to recognise the different demand profiles of individual projects, and groups thereof, is a portfolio management necessity. P2: projects that contribute to the strategic upgrade of a capital asset should be considered a potential programme of inter-related repeatable projects whose delivery would benefit from economies of repetition. P3: the greater the ability to identify different demand profiles of individual/groups of projects, the greater the delivery efficiency. P4: economies of repetition developed through efficient delivery of programmes of repeatable projects can foster greater efficiency in the delivery of innovative projects through economies of recombination.
This work fills a gap in the portfolio management literature, suggesting that the initial screening, selection and prioritisation of project proposals should be expanded to recognise not only the project type, but also each project's demand profile.

Tyler McLaughlin Wicked Tuna, Wiki/Bio: Age, girlfriend, family, net worth.
Tyler Mclaughlin is the youngest captain featuring in National Geography TV show Wicked Tuna. Do not be fooled by his youth and charming looks, Tyler is a competitive fisherman. Although Tyler does fishing for a living, he seeks to prove he is the best fisherman by catching more and bigger Tuna than the fellow fishermen who also strive to catch Blue Fin Tuna in the Atlantic Ocean.
Commercial fisherman as well TV actor, Tyler is the owner and captain of a 35 ft single-engine fishing vessel named Pin Wheel. He has been running the boat since 2011. In this article, we will bring major details on Tyler McLaughlin's life like his age, net worth, career, family. Also, know if he is married or having a relationship with a girlfriend.

Growing up in his hometown everything was perfectly set up for a fishing career. As early as the age of two his father would take him on fishing trips to keep him away from crying. By the age of three, he was catching Tuna all by himself. Ever since a child, he has been fishing in Rye Harbour during summers.
Tyler attended high school in Bridgton Academy and graduated in 2007. After high school, he joined Nicholas College where he was active in Tennis. However, his main passion lied elsewhere in fishing.

The fishing prodigy, Tyler joined the cast of National Geography TV show Wicked Tuna in 2012. The show is about the commercial fisherman who fishes in the Atlantic Ocean for Bluefin Tuna. Also, at the end of the season, the show declares the winner who catches Tuna's worth most.
Tyler claimed the throne in his debut second season of Wicked Tuna. Tyler and his crew of Pin Wheel caught Tuna worth $100,861 which was enough to declare them as the winner of 2013. Losers of the season included more experienced and older captains like Dave Carraro, Dave Marciano, and Paul Hebert. Since debut, Tyler has continuously been part of the show which has completed nine seasons as of 2020.
In addition to the main show, Tyler joined the cast of spin-off show " Wicked Tuna: Outer Banks" from the first season premiere on August 17, 2014, and continuously has been part with its fourth season already completed.
Tyler has an impressive fishing record even before the TV show. He was either winning or getting the second position in a number of 75-boat tournaments he participated in Maine. Also, his record for the biggest Tuna is quite impressive. Though not officially recorded on the basis of what Tyler said during an interview, he caught his biggest weighing 1,269 pounds and 124 inches long Tuna in October 2011 in Massachusetts. Tyler credits his knowledge and excellence in fishing down to the opportunity as a youngster when he got to train under a few good captains.
Besides fishing, he also spends time in ocean chartering for Tuna, Shark, striped bass, bluefish as well as ground Fishing.
His Net Worth
Reality TV personality and fisherman Tyler accumulates his wealth through commercial fishing, TV show, endorsement, and cloth merchandise. As of 2020, Tyler's net worth is estimated at $1M.

A Guide to Small Business Loans
If you want to start up a business, you will need startup capital. You can get this money from private lenders or banks. But the fact is that personal loans are an option too. If you're planning on starting up a small business venture, it's best to look into small business loans so that you don't find yourself in dire financial trouble later on. There are numerous options for small business loans, and we'll show you some of them here to know what your options are.
How to Get a Small Business Loan?
There are many different ways of getting a small business loan. Some people prefer going through the bank, but there is always another way that's faster and cheaper than going through the bank.

using equilibrium partitioning (EqP) model. As such, modeled data are
considered fit for purpose.
A QSAR using the Target Lipid Model (TLM) and the Equilibrium
Partitioning Model (EqP) reported long-term LL50 and NOELR
values of 133 mg/kg soil dry weight and 25.5 mg/kg soil dry weight,
respectively for Folsomia candida. This value is supported by the
following results:
LC50 = 3.2% IPA in diet, 1 day, male Drosophila
melanogaster (25.1 g/L in diet)
LC50 = 3.4% alcohol, 1 day, female Drosophila melanogaster (26.7

Detailed information covering the calculation model, physico-chemical
data used as input and the results are attached in section 13.2 of
The toxicity of iso-propyl alcohol (IPA) to 2 strains
of small fruit flies, Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophila
simulans, was assessed in a published non-guideline study that
predates GLP requirements for ecotoxicity studies (David & Bocquet,
1976). This laboratory study used larvae grown at low larval density on
an axenic, killed yeast medium. After emergence, adults were separated
into groups of 10 females and 10 males and kept on nutrient medium for
three days. After three days, each group of flies is transferred into an
air-tight plastic vial containing 2 mL of a 3% sucrose solution
supplemented with the tested concentration of IPA (7 concentrations in a
geometric progression of ratio 1.25). Mortality was determined after 1,
and 2 days of treatment. No further details on results were reported.
The results indicate that the male fruit fly is more susceptible to IPA
toxicity than the female fruit fly.
Fruit flies are exposed to ethanol from rotting fruits and other
alcohols can also be produced by microorganisms which may be found in Drosophila
food (David & Bocquet, 1976). The metabolism of the alcohols
encountered in food probably has an adaptive ecological significance.
The 2-day LC50 value for IPA was 1.5 and 1.7% IPA in
diet (11.8 and 13.4 g/L in diet) for male and female D. melanogaster,
respectively (3-day LC50 not reported). The 3-day LC50
value for IPA was 1.0 and 1.3% IPA in diet (7.9 and 10.2 mg/L in
diet) for male and female D. simulans, respectively.

Talocalcaneal coalition
Citation, DOI & article data
The talocalcaneal coalition is one of the two most common subtypes of the tarsal coalition, the other being the calcaneonavicular coalition. It accounts for 45% of all tarsal coalitions, and although all three facets of the talocalcaneal joint can be involved, the middle facet is most commonly involved.
On this page:
Talocalcaneal coalitions can be classified according to their location into the following subtypes 2:
- anterior facet type
- middle facet type
- posterior facet type
- extra-articular: with or without os sustentaculi
- pes planus with middle facet coalition 7
- pes cavus with posterior facet coalition 7
Radiographic features
As with any coalition, it may be bony, cartilaginous or fibrous. Talocalcaneal coalition often requires cross-sectional imaging for accurate diagnosis.
Plain radiograph
Plain film findings include 3,4:
- best assessed on a lateral ankle radiograph
- posterior continuity of the talus and sustentaculum tali
- sensitivity: 50%
- specificity: 90%
talar beak sign
- best seen on the lateral ankle radiograph
- prominent beak at the anterior aspect of the talus
Secondary radiographic features that suggest the diagnosis include close apposition of the middle facet of the talocalcaneal (subtalar) joint or non-visualization of the middle articular facet 1,5. Sclerosis around the articular margins of the talocalcaneal joint may also occur.
At CT, coronal reformats are usually the best to appreciate the coalition. The bony coalition is seen as a complete bar of bone between the talus and calcaneus. In a non-osseous coalition, there is usually irregularity of the articular surface, narrowing of the joint space and subchondral sclerosis. CT can also nicely demonstrate the presence of an os sustentaculi.
MRI is more helpful for the assessment of cartilaginous or fibrous coalitions and also demonstrates bone marrow and soft-tissue edema.
Nuclear medicine
On bone scan, increased radionuclide uptake at the site of the coalition may occur due to altered biomechanics at the joint, although this is a non-specific finding.
History and etymology
The talocalcaneal coalition was first described by the Hungarian anatomist Emil Zuckerkandl in 1877 2.

RV Hacks for Better Living: 16 Genius Tips in 5 Essential Categories
May 12th, 2021 by ShadePro
Architect Mies van der Rohe is responsible for the aphorism "less is more" that so many of us yearn to live by. And for sure, less quickly becomes "more than enough" when we squeeze our lives into an RV or camper to hit the road for days, weeks, months, maybe even years. With that in […]

In recent years, the Vikings offense ran through the running game, namely Dalvin Cook. If the Vikings couldn't run the ball, their offense simply didn't work.
Under new head coach Kevin O'Connell, the Vikings offense should be more balanced and less reliant on Cook for a heavy workload and is responsible for making everything tick. That's not to say Cook no longer has an important role. He absolutely does. I'm telling you now — look out for a Dalvin Cook career year.
Not being leaned on so much may equate to Cook doing something he has never done before — stay healthy for an entire season. He has put up some staggering numbers despite having never played more than 14 regular season games in a single season. A more balanced offense and maybe even more willingness from the current coaching staff to spread the workload may help Cook avoid breaking down this year. The Vikings have great depth at the running back position with Alexander Mattison, Kene Nwangwu, and Ty Chandler.
None of this means you should expect Cook's production to drop. I believe it can have the opposite effect, particularly if O'Connell gets more out of him in the passing game — an area that Cook is underrated due to him not being utilized in that role as much as some other running backs are.
Back in 2019, Cook tallied 519 receiving yards from 63 targets. The past two seasons have reduced targets for Cook, 54 in 2020 and 49 in 2021. Cook can take the ball all the way from anywhere on the field if you get the ball to him in just a small about of space. It's an area the Vikings should look to maximize.
Cook has registered well over 1,000 rushing yards in the last three seasons despite never playing more than 14 regular season games. Health is always a big question mark. Suppose he can stay on the field for all 17 regular season games. The numbers he is capable of producing are epic. His best season came in 2020 when he totaled 1918 yards from scrimmage. One thousand five hundred fifty-seven of those yards coming on the ground to go with 361 receiving yards.
I wouldn't expect Cook to become only the ninth running back in NFL history to have a 2,000 rushing-yard season. However, if — and it's a big if — he can stay healthy for the entire regular season, 2000 total yards from scrimmage is well within his capabilities. He doesn't need 30 rushes a game to get it done, either. The Vikings have the depth at running back to let others pick up some of the load. Less can mean more for Cook this season, and my tagline for him will be "twenty is plenty."
Any more than 20 rush attempts per game, and you're getting into "flogging a dead horse" territory. There's a reason running backs have lost value in the NFL. Teams prefer cheaper, younger options in a committee, as the likelihood of a workhorse, lead back breaking down is so high. The workload is simply too much.
Even the mammoth of a man that is Derrick Henry broke down last year.
For me, 20 rushes and five targets in the passing game is the optimal range for Cook's involvement in this Vikings offense. You could even run the ball less with Cook, but let's not forget what a phenomenal player he is — one of only three Vikings players who made it into this season's NFL 100.
You still want the ball in his hands often. We have yet to see what a Kevin O' Connell game plan looks like. The passing game will be front and center. However, don't forget about Cook. He will still have a significant role to play, with less burden than in the past.
For that reason, I expect a Dalvin Cook career year in 2022.
