Getting her to the next level
Find a Conversation
Wed, 09-19-2012 - 10:33am |
I have not posted here in a while. But I wanted to post an update. I have been working with my wife for years now about my fantasy of watching her enjoy a larger man. She always thought I was crazy. But now she at least likes the fantasy of it. It has been fun to play with and she now even emails other men for cyber fun.
I'd love to still talk with some well endowed guys out there and maybe find someone that could help her get to the point of maybe trying it for real.
Anyone have luck in this type of scenario?
Wed, 09-19-2012 - 2:10pm |
If she's at that level with emailing and cyber fun....trust me....you'll finally get your fantasy taken care of....
Wed, 09-19-2012 - 2:14pm |
I hope you are right. But it is hard to make that jump. I know I talk a good game online but falter when it becomes real!!

Before you jump to another person why go together and bye her a big toy. She can put on a show for you.
Wed, 09-19-2012 - 9:22pm |
Hi mltmwk,
My DH would also like me to be with a well-endowed man. But he can't bring himself to "be ok with it". yet... ;-)
In the meantime, as manwithcats said, try a bigger toy. Maybe some roleplay mixed in where you pretend to be the bigger man.
Maybe a step further, but not as far as you seem to want, would be a webcam scenario. You using the toy on her while one of her well-endowed cyber friends watches. If she's shy about that, maybe wear masks or something. ?
Its good that she is open to your fantasy more than she once was. However, maybe having sex in front of you is something that is just too far for her. If you inch along, you'll both discover her boundaries (and yours). have fun and tell us how things advance please.

well we have begun the toy fun!.....i am small and don't like to pretend to be big...but do help her enjoy it
now i just need to find the right man for her

I'm thinking about stopping in KC on my way to Iowa this weekend and catching the Royals and the Red Sox.
I've never been to Kauffman, so I'm not sure where the good seats are located.
I found 4 in section 320 row H on the first base side.
How are these? From the picture, it looks pretty good.

I was curious and by no means is this detailed enough to get to the heart of what sells and what doesn't but I was curious under what top level categories sold and how much penetration each category had. The numbers below reflect sales (so if it sold 1 copy it counts).
Number of Items for Sale: 4,785
Number of Items Sold: 4,191
Percentage chance of selling in category: 87.6%
Print Templates
Number of Items for Sale: 7,043
Number of Items Sold: 6,641

Percentage chance of selling in category: 90.4%
Number of Items for Sale: 3,071
Number of Items Sold: 1,082
Percentage chance of selling in category: 35.2%
I know that various factors effect statistics such as these and as you look at price vs sales that also plays a part. For example if you put a logo on the marketplace you may only have a 35.2% chance of getting a sale however the sale would be $29 so you could sell less to have success.
Once again I was just curious.

How did you work all that out? did you count them all individually or just subtract the amount of none sales from total?
I organized each category by sales went to the last sale to get the total (upper right now displaying) and did the math.
Matu here's another for you…
Under Web Elements I went into buttons… There are only 2 items that have not sold under this area. Average price is $2-9 each sale.
Chances are if you create Buttons you're going to get a sale as 99.9% of all buttons sell.
If you then take and average the number of sales (you take the sales of all items add them together and divide by the total number of items)... To much to count now.
But same idea… (661 buttons)
Items Price
207 $2
260 $3
103 $4
66 $5
22 $6
19 $7
2 $8
2 $9
The average price an author can expect for creating web buttons is $3 the math actually comes out to $3.18 so you'd round it down.
Now if you take the average price by the average sales you'd get what typically an author can expect in sales doing buttons based on their commission rate.
Just didn't have it in my to add together 661 items worth of sales to get the average sales. But you get the idea.
Of course this is all averages individual results would be above or below.
That's some great information! thanks for sharing!
This also goes in line with some of the research "quickandeasy" has been doing and a question I asked in another thread a couple of days ago.

Great thread. Thank you for all informations.
You're welcome. Honestly I love crunching the numbers just so I can get a better idea of things. Must be why I'm doing UX work for an analytics company.
I of course to be honest just create things that I like to create not based on maybes and what ifs. But it does show what the customers of the marketplace are by type. I'd love to see a persona study on the sites.

Young at Heart
When Alex enters the lives of the musical Tuttle family, each of the three daughters falls for him. He is charming, good looking and personable. Laurie and Alex seem made for each other and become engaged. When Barney comes into the picture to help Alex with some musical arrangements matters become complicated. He is seen as a challenge by Laurie, who can't believe anyone could be as cynical, and she is more than a match for his gloomy outlook on life.

ø Ignore DimitriXProne?
Reading through the KotS adventure, I see that there are a lot of events that can knock a creature prone. The pregen fighter has an encounter power that can knock a creature prone and falling from a height can knock a creature prone (along with dealing a lot of damage). And the quick start rules explains the modifiers that affect a creature while it is prone.
But, here's the question: does getting up from a prone position provoke an opportunity attack from an adjacent enemy? The quick start rules do not address this. There is confusion from the PHB-lite (which is fan created and is no better than my guess). So, I'd like an official answer so I don't have to correct myself a few weeks later when the official rules come out. Thanks.
(I've typically had better luck getting answers here. That's why I've posted here and on the WotC official rules forum.)

It does not provoke. The quick start rules likely don't mention it because they should only mention it if it did provoke.

I don't have a source for you, 'cause I can't remember. But I am certain.

ø Ignore DimitriXI got a ruling from the WotC (they're just trying to make me eat crow now):
"The following actions provoke:
Moving out of a square when an enemy is adjacent to you.
Making a ranged attack or area attack.
If it's not on that list, it doesn't provoke.
Logan Bonner
Mechanical Designer, Dungeons & Dragons"
I have to say that I like the simplicity. I'll be willing to bet that's an influence from Mearls and Iron Heroes.Last edited by DimitriX; Tuesday, 20th May, 2008 at 07:01 PM.

That's a good opportunity attack rule.

It is funny that rooting around in your backpack doesn't provoke.
However, 3e had all those items like the handy haversack, which everyone got as soon as possible, and I guess I never missed the tactical complexity added by AoO's for retrieving stored items.

Bitcoin Erotica E-Book to Be Released
By the author of "Cougars Like It Hard."
After taking it to the streets, bitcoins are taking it to the bedroom. Brought to you by the author of books like Cougars Like It Dirty and Cougars Like It Hard, comes an erotic e-book centered on ... you guessed it, bitcoins. King of the Bitcoin, written by Kayleen Knight, follows the life a 19-year-old Bitcoin miner named Atlas Fawkes. After a major financial collapse in 2019, Fawkes comes out of the struggle stronger than before and becomes "fabulously wealthy" and then a "sexual king." With wildly explicit sex scenes, it's already been deemed "unacceptable" for teens under the age of 17.
YouTube Launches Award Program
Headliners include Lady Gaga, Eminem, Arcade Fire.
Because we desperately need another awards show. On November 3, YouTube will be premiering its first-ever music awards hosted by Jason Schwartzman and headlined by Lady Gaga, Eminem, and Arcade Fire. The performances will be livestreamed under the direction of Spike Jonze. "[I]nstead of bands performing to an audience on a stage, we're going to have a warehouse with all these different sets and try to make live music videos throughout the night," Jonze says. The nominees will be announced on October 17, and crowdsourced voting will take place on YouTube and other sites.
The Tourists Are Laughing
Visitors to New York were mostly amused to find out they couldn't see the Statue of Liberty thanks to government incompetence. But the locals who sell them tickets and give them ferry rides are feeling the pain.
You know what's funny? An America without a government. That's what some tourists in lower Manhattan were saying on Tuesday as they mulled around figuring out what to do instead of hopping on a boat to the Statue of Liberty. It's closed, by the way. So are many other federal buildings in the city, putting an estimated 72,000 workers out of a job in New York state alone. But while the country seems gripped by shutdown fever, many tourists from here and abroad had no clue it would affect their plans.
Patent Lets Authors Sign E-Books
No release date for app yet.
Autographs are going digital. Apple has filed a patent that would allow authors to sign their names electronically to a reader's e-book. The patent allows for authentication of signatures either by an embedded certificate or an uploaded picture of the author and reader. Some signatures could be authenticated only in a designated "interactivity zone," such as a book signing. Apple has not yet set a release date for the application.
The Cruelest Month?
With a full slate of important economic dates, rising Washington dysfunction, and a worrisome legacy, October may spook investors long before Halloween.
Halloween isn't the only thing that has people spooked about the month of October.Historically, superstitious investors have feared the 10th month of the year. Why? On October 28 and 29, 1929—a.k.a. Black Monday and Black Tuesday—a stock-market crash helped kick off the Great Depression. Then, nearly 60 years later, on October 19, 1987, also known as Black Monday, stock markets worldwide crashed again, causing the Dow Jones Industrial Average to shed 22.
Government Shutdown Could Slow Housing Recovery
Among the litany of things the shutdown will mess up, you can add our nascent housing recovery.
By Diana OlickThe fight may be in Washington, but the effects of the government shutdown will ripple through every neighborhood in America—without a fully functioning government, an already tight mortgage market may become even more prohibitive. It is exactly what the housing recovery does not need."This is going to be very disruptive to the mortgage industry and pretty much result in a freeze of the pipeline," said Craig Strent, CEO of Bethesda, Maryland–based Apex Home Loans.
Diddy Backs Music-Video Network
Aims for it to be like CNN, for music.
If you're sick of Teen Mom and want some music videos, Sean Combs might have the answer for you. The rapper is backing a new music channel called Revolt, which launches next month and will try to bring back music videos. "The way you go to CNN for breaking news or ESPN for sports—in six months to a year, we want Revolt to be that for music," said Revolt co-founder Andy Schuon. But they might have something to learn from their predecessors: the network's music-video outpost, MTV 2, averages just 161,000 viewers in primetime, and VH1 Classic has just 39,000.

It might not be so easy to get Adderall for young kids after all. Psychiatric drugs are being prescribed less in very young children after reaching a peak in the mid-2000s, according to a study released Monday by the journal Pediatrics. The decrease occurred despite an overall increase in the number of children diagnosed with behavior disorders. Between 1994 and 1997, 1 percent of all preschoolers were prescribed psychotic drugs—but that number spiked to 1.5 percent between 2002 and 2005 before going back down to 1 percent between 2006 and 2009. The results come on the heels of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services launching a review into the use of anti-psychotic drugs on children younger than age 17 in the Medicaid system.
OMB Ready for Shutdown for Years
Since 2011 debt-ceiling crisis.
The government shutdown might have shocked you, but apparently the White House Office of Budget and Management has been prepared for two years—since the 2011 debt-ceiling debate. "We have been prudently planning for this contingency for the last month, and frankly, for the past couple of years because we have faced, and agencies have faced, these contingencies in the past," said Brian Deese, the deputy director of the OMB. Other preparations took place in Washington on Monday, with National Park Service employees setting up barricades at the monuments and on the National Mall—and shutting off the 45 fountains. At the Capitol, the last tour for the indefinite future was held Monday at 3:10 p.m.
Up to Speed: The Health-Care Exchange Rollout
Thought you were done with health-care debates? Think again. With the rollout of the new state exchanges Tuesday, health care will be back front and center.
If you had the good fortune to have lived under a rock the past couple weeks, you may be unaware that on Tuesday, October 1, the Health Insurance Marketplace, better known as exchanges, will open.In order to understand what these exchanges are and why everybody is making such a fuss, here is a quick guide to what will happen Tuesday.(1) What is the Health Insurance Marketplace?One of the major goals of the Affordable Care Act (a.k.a. Obamacare) was to achieve universal access to health care.

Photos galleries are one of the most popular plugins for the WordPress blogging and cms platform; much helped by the ubiquitous nature of digital cameras.
Within the plethora of WordPress Gallery plugins NextGEN Gallery is recognised, by fact of 5 million downloads, as the best of the gallery plugins.
However, until recently blogging apps have not supported the direct publishing of photos into WordPress Galleries. This has been unfortunate because mobile devices offer one of the best mechanisms for photo blogging. A theory supported by the recent takeover of Instagram by Facebook for a reported $1billion.
NextGEN Gallery on iPhone
Tinydesk Writer, released recently by Tinydesk, is the first and only blogging app to enable the direct publishing of photos from the iPhone camera or camera roll into NextGEN Galleries and albums.
Tinydesk writer enables new galleries and albums to be created and provides a Visual editor for imbedding galleries, albums and single images without the need to remember gallery short codes or manually establish albums and gallery IDs.
Photo galleries can also be browsed in the now familiar style used in social media apps such as Facebook and Instagram by flicking through the images.
Tinydesk Writer is available FREE in the App Store….. Check it out.

What about James? Really, I think you need to use another name with a family connection. You don't want one twin to feel left out.

Topic: Literature
Do you ever look at the pictures first when preparing to read a book? Why?How do you suppose an adult's reading preferences and dispositions differs from that of a child's?
7 Answers | add yours
I think that there is much to indicate that good readers, regardless of age, examine the pictures in a book prior to reading it. Naturally, as a reader matures, they become more attracted to a particular genre, style or author and this guides them more than the pictures might, but prior to beginning reading, if a book has pictures I think it is an active reading technique to examine them before reading. All good readers develop the habit of previewing and prereading so that the mind has some background that will allow it to properly envision the text being read. From the earliest of ages, teachers instruct children to preread as an activity that precedes actual reading. Examining pictures as part of this process is vital and something that I think one would see mature and developing readers alike experience.

I don't think adult reading preferences differ very greatly from those of a child.
Children and adults alike read for pleasure, read to learn (although children may not consciously realize this), read out of curiousity, read because they are made to read, read to connect to something outside themselves...
I think part of being successful in the world of education/knowledge as an adult is remembering what it was like to learn as a child. The most successful teachers are the ones who can impart knowledge in a way that is digestible, practical, and interesting. Children are uncorrupted by due dates, grades, salaries, deadlines, etc. However, in the adult-world, all of those things take care of themselves when we pursue knowledge with the same excitement and purity that we had when we were little.
The main difference in the adult approach to reading (and learning) and the child's approach, is that children do not have as many external factors weighing on their decisions to do ANYTHING, including selecting reading material.
Posted by clairewait on May 13, 2010 at 4:06 AM (Answer #3)
I always look at the pictures before reading a book just like I always flip through the book and look at the table of contents to begin to wrap my brain about what is included before I actually begin to read. As I am reading, then, I can begin to fit details into the "bigger picture" I formed before reading. This is what good readers do.
I don't know that a child's reading preferences and dispositions change all that much over time. Certainly, we all grow and our interests expand with our own experiences. However, most of the same topics I found interesting when I was young are still topics I find interesting as an adult. Nothing has been "lost;" I've simply added a great more to my list.

I look at the colour and what's on the front cover. The main thing that appeals to me though is the title. When I see a good title, I just pick up the book and start reading the blurb. Most of the time, I end up putting the book back because the blurb doesn't appeal to me. I'm into the Blaze series of books, the characters seem so real and it's easy to get hooked!!
Posted by kim-c on May 14, 2010 at 1:03 AM (Answer #5)
I definitely look at the pictures before beginning to read a book. I enjoy looking at the contents of the cover and analyzing the type, choice of colour, illustrations or graphics, photos, size and distribution of the design.
I do not think that adults and children learning differently, however. I do believe that the differences in how people learn are in the differentiated learning styles: visual, auditory,and kinesthetic.
Posted by linalarocca on May 17, 2010 at 7:28 PM (Answer #6)
I always look at the covers of a book first, but if it includes pictures in the text, I usually look at them as I read (not before). However, I do use cover art as introductions to novels in my classes. I'll have students study the cover and discuss it amongst themselves. Then, we discuss what the implications of such art could be for the story. It's an exercise in prediction, which is an important skill for strong readers.
Posted by MaudlinStreet on August 20, 2010 at 8:40 PM (Answer #7)
I also really enjoy studying and reflecting on the covers of books. Most of those I choose these days don't have pictures, so the cover is the only real visual storytelling element. From it, I can usually glean something about the text, often including symbols and hints about what's to come. Love a good book cover!!

Vehicles are difficult enemies for infantry units to fight with conventional equipment and tactics, thus the need for Anti Vehicle weapons and abilities. These include:
# Explosives, mainly missile or rocket launchers and {{Sticky Bomb}}s.
# {{Caltrops}} for vehicles with tires
Generally if it can't be easily destroyed, it can be slowed down or disabled, especially by terrain.
For the sake of CompetitiveBalance and TacticalRockPaperScissors, many anti-vehicle-specific weapons (at least on video games) make extremely lousy anti-personnel weapons (when they can be used as anti-personnel weapons ''at all''). Lenghty reload time, very little ammo, lots of impact damage but little (if any) splash damage, shots are slow so someone on foot could dodge them with ease, may need to lock on or the vehicle to be tagged in some other way for the weapon to have its maximum effectiveness when fired ...
SubTrope of WeaponOfXSlaying. See also AntiAir, AntiCavalry, AntiInfantry, and AntiArmor.
* The 'Straight Arrow' anti-tank missile from the ''Literature/{{Starfist}}'' series, good enough to extinguish mechanized warfare for several hundred years ([[HollywoodTactics in-universe]]).
[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
* ''TabletopGame/{{Shadowrun}}'' has rockets and missiles that are specifically designed to attack ground and air vehicles. In addition to [[AntiArmor penetrating vehicle armor]], they're also designed to not explode if they miss their target.
* ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}}'': Krak missiles or variants thereof are the most common, used by the Imperial Guard, Space Marines, Orks, and Eldar among others. For heavier vehicles, the lascannon is considered the gold standard, whereas the PowerFist is exceptionally deadly ''if'' you can get in range (easier said than done when the tank in question is capable of [[CarFu driving over you]]).
** Interestingly, the Tau eschew this aspect of warfare altogether; their infantry squads carry no heavy weapons. All anti-tank warfare is conducted by either their own tanks or [[HumongousMecha Broadside Battlesuits]].
[[folder:Video Games]]
* The AT (anti-tank) squads in ''VideoGame/WorldInConflict'' shared the basic infantry squads' vulnerability to being run over but are positively deadly to ground vehicles of any kind. Owing to the game's consistent TacticalRockPaperScissors balancing, they are completely defenseless against helicopters (while basic infantry isn't).
* The Swarm Launchers, homing AV grenades, Forge Guns, and proximity mines of ''VideoGame/DustFiveOneFour''.
* The Lancer class in ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChronicles'' is the only infantry unit who can damage tanks without [[AttackItsWeakPoint attacking its radiator]]. In case a Lancer manages to hit a tank's radiator, it usually results in a OneHitKill for the tank.
* ''VideoGame/EmpireAtWar'': The Rebels have rocket troopers that do extra damage against vehicles.
* ''VideoGame/EnemyTerritoryQuakeWars'': Engineers can create anti-vehicular defensive turrets (missile launchers that other classes can designate targets for). They will *only* attack vehicles, allowing enemy soldiers to destroy it if undefended.
* ''[[VideoGame/{{Battlefield}} Battlefield 2142]]'': The engineer class can place an anti-vehicular railgun turret for fellow soldiers to use. The railgun takes a short time to recharge between shots, however.
* In some ''VideoGame/NintendoWars'' games Anti-Tank units can be purchased.
* Spikeweeds and Spikerocks in ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombies''. These deal DamageOverTime against normal zombies, but are a OneHitKill on Zombonis and Catapult zombie vehicles.
* A bog-standard infantry choice in all incarnations of ''CommandAndConquer''. Generally, upon building their first barracks or equivalent, a commander would have the option to train either basic riflemen (or equivalent) or an anti-armor soldier. Many of them used guided missile launchers, so they also served as AntiAir, but not all -- other anti-tank weapons have included grenades, railguns, and FrickingLaserBeams.
* In ''VideoGame/{{Civilization}} V'', Modern-era civs can field the prosaically-named Anti-Tank unit, which is fairly weak but has a big bonus against tanks. They tended to be effective against that era's armor, but overshadowed by future eras'. The unit profile noted that man-portable anti-tank weapons weren't all that good against modern armor, and recommended investing in some DeathFromAbove.
[[folder:Real Life]]
* An anti-tank mine's explosive charge is more powerful than that of an anti-personnel mine and may be a shaped charge designed to penetrate armor. They are designed to detonate when the weight of a vehicle pushes down on them.
* The HESH round (high explosive, squash head) is designed to expressly NOT [[ArmorPiercingAttack penetrate tank armor]]. As conventional steel armour grew thicker and thicker, anti-tank guns to combat it had to get larger and larger. This had a law of diminishing returns - an anti-tank gun needs to be fairly small, light, inobtrusive, easy to hide and easy to extract quickly. UsefulNotes/WW2 weapons just got too big - the German [=PaK=] 105 or [=PaK88=]'s weighed ''tons'', and the proposed British 32 pounder anti-tank gun was scrapped because of its behemoth size and impracticality. so the HESH round was developed to expressly NOT penetrate armour all the way through, but rather to exploit the thickness of defensive armour plating and turn it into a liability and a deathtrap. HESH rounds are designed with a soft high explosive warhead with an impact detonator in the rear of the shell, so that the explosive spreads out on the armor face before detonating, which causes spalling (bits of the armor inside fragmenting) and can really ruin a vehicle crew's day by [[HoistByHisOwnPetard shotgunning them with their own armor]]. HESH is now largely obsolete as modern composite ceramic armour is designed to defeat it, as are external shielding and reactive panels, but in its day it was a lethal battlefield weapon. And it allowed for far smaller anti-tank guns: Britain's last towed anti-tank weapons, the WOMBAT series, were so small and light they could fit inside the back of a land-rover.
* The [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairchild_Republic_A-10_Thunderbolt_II Fairchild Republic A-10 "Thunderbolt II", also known as the "Warthog" ]]. It is not going to win any dogfights, but it is built from the ground up to carry the GAU-8/A "Avenger" 30mm [[GatlingGood Gatling cannon]], several additional hardpoints for bombs and missiles, plus being tough enough to survive AntiAir fire. Broadly speaking, it haunts the nightmares of most tank operators that have seen one in action.

The Boxster E prototypes showed by Porsche at the Michelin Challenge Bibendum in Berlin last week were a star attraction.
At the 11th staging of the forum for sustainable mobility, representatives from politics, industry, trade and research discussed environmentally-friendly mobility and vehicle concepts of the future. Demonstrations in the electric Boxsters were in particular demand amongst the expert audience. On a sporty circuit, the vehicles demonstrated that a Boxster with electric drive still remains a genuine Porsche in terms of driving dynamics.
In the wake of the GT3 R Hybrid, 918 Spyder and 918 RSR, the Boxster E is yet another sports car concept showing Porsche's vision of enjoyable driving with pioneering technology.
A single Boxster E, with two electric motors – one apiece on the front and rear axle – runs on pure electric power with four-wheel drive and is equivalent to a Boxster S in terms of driving dynamics. Together with two other Boxster Es, in which an electric motor drives the rear wheels only, the three prototypes are being used to explore the everyday practicality of all-electric vehicles and how they are used, especially in terms of driving and battery charging.
The practical trials with the Boxster Es are part of the "Model Region Electro-Mobility Stuttgart" large-scale trial. The Stuttgart model region is being sponsored as part of the German Federal Government's "Electro-Mobility in Model Regions" project.
The Boxster E is an all-electric vehicle without a combustion engine on board. Propulsion is provided by two independent electric motors with constant mesh gearboxes that act on the front and rear axles. The rear drive unit comprising motor and transmission, together with the power electronics for controlling the electric motor is located where the manual transmission and exhaust system are accommodated in the conventional Boxster.
In the front, the space vacated by the 64-litre fuel tank, now redundant, is occupied by the second drive unit. The power electronics unit in the adjacent luggage compartment serves the front axle electric motor. The Boxster E thereby features all-wheel drive without mechanical transmission of power. To ensure maximum driving stability and traction, a central electric control unit looks after the synchronisation of the two electric motors and controls the drive torque distribution to the front and rear axle.
The two electric motors develop a total power output of 180 kW and a maximum total torque of 540 Nm at a maximum engine speed of approximately 12,000 rpm. That means that the two electric motors in tandem deliver significantly higher drive power than what is available from present day hybrid vehicles' electric-power units.
Not only does the Boxster E's all-electric drive produce no emissions – it also offers a completely novel form of driving enjoyment. The electric drive's maximum torque kicks in virtually from the first turn of the engine. The Boxster E moves almost silently while at the same time developing powerful propulsion from the very outset.
The two motors enable the two-seater to sprint to 100 km/h in 5.5 seconds on its way to a 200 km/h top speed – without so much as a gear change! The two motors' high power output offers a second advantage into the bargain: It means more recovered power is available because more energy can be recovered during braking. This increases efficiency of the drive unit.
In the case of the two other Boxster Es with rear wheel drive only, there is no front electric motor, which means that they deliver a power output of 90 kW and a rated torque of 270 Nm. They manage the sprint from a standing start to 100 km/h in 9.8 seconds with a top speed of 150 km/h.
Because all Boxster Es are comparatively quiet on the road, Porsche engineers have designed an Active Sound Design system that provides drivers with acoustic feedback as well as alerting any passersby.
Irrespective of variant, the heart of every Boxster E is manufactured by Porsche. This lithium-iron-phosphate based traction battery is fitted in place of the combustion engine. Each of its cells has a nominal voltage of 3.3 V and an individual capacity of 20 Ah. Based on the NEDC, the combined energy from 440 individual cells is good for approximately 170 kilometres of driving in the Boxster E with its ready-for-the-road weight of 1,600 kg. For an overall weight of 341 kg, the battery's energy content is 29 kWh of which for inherent physical reasons approximately 26 kWh is available for use – an outstanding performance for a battery. Its maximum power output is 240 kW, or 60 kilowatts more than the all-wheel Boxster E draws under full load. The battery and power unit components are connected to two water cooling circuits. As with the conventional power unit, the heat exchangers are accommodated behind the front air intakes.
The traction battery is charged via a charging cable. Any conventional socket can be used as an energy source. The charging port on the vehicle features an illuminated ring and as with any Porsche sports car the vehicle is recharged at the front end. The charger is accommodated at the front of the car. It converts alternating current from the socket into direct current, enabling the traction battery to store the electric energy. Its charging capacity is a maximum of 3.3 kW meaning that is takes approximately nine hours for a full charge. The charging time can, however, be reduced using a rapid charging function.
There is enough space left over for luggage in the front luggage compartment despite the electronic components; the Boxster E's rear luggage compartment remains unchanged.
It goes without saying that all of the production models' important safety and comfort features are replicated in the Boxster E. The new brake system enables an optimal melding of the braking forces of the electrical generators and the mechanical brake system while the electrically powered air conditioning compressor in the front luggage compartment ensures comfortable temperatures inside the Porsche.
Not only is the clutch pedal and gearshift lever absent in the Boxster E, there is no rev counter either. In its place is a special E-Power meter in the central instrument cluster display. A swing to the right indicates power call-off and to the left power recovery. Recuperation – namely the recovery of energy by using the electric motors as generators – can be modified by means of the push buttons on the steering wheel. The effect: a sort of on-demand engine brake. Otherwise, when the driver lifts their foot off the accelerator, the Boxster E simply sails on, using the moving vehicle's kinetic energy.
Among its other functions, the instrument cluster's right-hand TFT display acts as an intelligent range management system, displaying useful driving information: the range remaining or how many kilometres can be gained by switching off the air conditioning system.

The Royal Wedding
A Print and Play version of a My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Mafia/Werewolf game. Since the Royal Wedding provided us with changelings I thought It would be a good concept for a Mafia/Werewolf game. I have already made and published my own Mafia/Werewolf version called "Spy in the base" which has a bigger variety of characters and an original theme to it. I made this because I am a MLP fan and want to introduce more people to the Mafia/Werewolf concept. Feel free to download and print the sheets, put them in card sleeves and have a good time! The rules are written below.
P.S. I simply rewrote the rules for this version so if you see words like "soldier", don't mind that. I will revise the rules in the future.
Download A4 Sheets here
· Moderator. He moderates the game, announcing when the game phases start. Assisting the players throughout the game, but not giving anything away.
· Changelings. They win by removing ponies from play.
· The Queen. If the queen is removed from play, the changelings instantly lose
· The Ponies They win by removing all changelings from play
· The Seer. He can detect changelings during his/her phase.
· The Witch. During his/her phase he/she may save targeted pony and decide who to remove from play if he/she wishes to do so. He/she may be able to do both things once per game.
· The Hunter. If he/she gets removed from play, he/she may shoot any other pony as his final attempt to find the changeling.
· The Cupid. He/she may pick two ponies and bond them together. If one dies, the other dies from depression.
· The Guard- Every night after the Changeling phase the guard wakes up and selects someone they will protect. If the guard selects a pony that was targeted by the changelings, the targeted pony survives.
· Choose an Moderator.
· Everyone else is dealt a card that gives them their secret role as a player. They look at their card and remember their role.
· Role cards are placed on the table in front of each player. (Preferred)
Basic Phases (Regular Ponies and Changelings)
Night Phase
1. The Moderator tells everyone to close their eyes and lower their heads. ("Princess Luna has raised the moon, everypony is asleep")
2. Each night, the Moderator tells the Changelings to open their eyes and acknowledge each other. The Changelings may select one pony to remove from play by silently gesturing to indicate their target and to show unanimity.
3. The Moderator takes note of the victim and tells the Changelings to go to sleep.
Day Phase
1. The Moderator tells everyone to wake up and reveals the victim by flipping the card over. (He/she may add "Tom was sleeping silently with his wife, but the changelings got him.") This player is "missing" and may no longer participate in the game in any way.
2. The players deliberate over which suspected player they wish to nominate for removal. Once nominations are made, the moderator administrates an election between the nominees, in which all players vote - whoever receives the most votes is removed from play; they are "in the dungeon" and their role card are flipped (revealing their true alignment).
3. After a pony has been removed, the Moderator informs the group that it's night again.
Winning The Game
The game ends either when the last Changeling is removed from play (Ponies win) or the Ponies no longer outnumber Changelings during the day (Changeling victory).
Advanced Phases (With other roles)
When playing with other or all roles, special alignment must be followed. Note: During each phase the Moderator asks the specific role to wake up and go back to sleep (close their eyes) after his phase is over.
Night Phase
1. The Moderator tells everyone to close their eyes and lower their heads.
2. Cupid Phase (1st night only). The Moderator tells the Cupid to pick two people to match together. The Cupid points at two people and the Moderator pokes both of their shoulder.
3. Lover Phase (1st night only). The Moderator tells the people who were poked to open their eyes and acknowledge each other as they are now lovers and if one 'goes missing', the other will too.
4. Seer Phase (Every night). The Moderator tells the Seer to point at another player's card. The Moderator then reveals that players card (Role) and shows it to the Seer before flipping it face down.
5. Changeling Phase (Every Night). As explained on the basic rules.
6. Guard Phase (Every night). Guard wakes up and decides which person to protect. If he selects a person who was targeted by Changelings that night, that person is protected. The Moderator announces that on the day phase.
7. Witch Phase (Every night until all his powers are used.) The Moderator shows the witch who was the victim and asks the witch if she wants to save him/her or not. Also the Moderator asks if the witch would like to poison someone else too. The Medic may do these things only once per game.
Day Phase
1. As Explained on the basic rules.
2. If a hunter gets removed from play, he/she may pick another person to remove from play.

BAY ST. LOUIS, Miss. (AP) - A building permit has been issued for a $6.1 million terminal and hangar at Stennis International Airport.
GM&R Construction Co. of Bay St. Louis was the successful bidder for the project.
Jack Zink, executive director of the Hancock County Development Commission, tells The Sun Herald (http://bit.ly/ulJGde ) he expects work to start any day on the 10,000-square foot terminal and 24,000-square foot hangar to replace the hangar destroyed during Hurricane Katrina.
Construction will take about a year.
The modern, two-story terminal was designed by JBHM Architects in Biloxi. It will have a restaurant and an aviation history theme.
Zink says the funding for the projects will come from multiple sources, including compensation for damage caused by Hurricane Katrina.

The stock market fell Tuesday as a rise in Treasury yields pushed down interest-rate sensitive stocks such as homebuilders, utilities and phone companies.
The yield on the 10-year note climbed close to its highest in two years amid signs that that Europe will emerge from its recession.
Homebuilders slid on concern that mortgage rates will climb, curbing a recovery in the housing market. The stocks of phone companies and utilities that typically pay big dividends also fell. These stocks have slumped as Treasury yields have climbed, diminishing their appeal as alternative assets that give investors high income.
"You're seeing the 10-year yield move higher," hurting interest-rate sensitive stocks, said Quincy Krosby, a market strategist at Prudential Financial.
Airline stocks slumped after the Justice Department and a number of state attorneys general challenged the proposed merger between US Airways Group and American Airlines' parent company, AMR Corp. US Airways fell $1.92, or 10.2 percent, to $16.90.
The Dow Jones Transportation average dropped 0.8 percent, far more than other indexes.
Investors were also disappointed by a report on retail sales last month that came in weaker than they expected.
Retail sales increased 0.2 percent in July from June, the Commerce Department said Tuesday. Sales had risen 0.6 percent in June from May boosting hopes that stronger consumer spending could boost economic growth. The increase was slightly below the 0.3 percent that economists had forecast, according to data provider FactSet.
The Dow Jones industrial average was down 25 points, or 0.2 percent, at 15,395 as of 11:30 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time.
The Standard & Poor's 500 index was down a point, less than 0.1 percent, at 1,688. The Nasdaq composite fell four points, or 0.1 percent, to 3,666.
The S&P has lost 1.2 percent since hitting an all-time high of 1,709 on Aug. 2. Disappointing second-quarter corporate earnings reports have prompted investors to send stock prices lower this month.
The index is still up 18 percent for the year on optimism that the housing market will recover and hiring will pick up.
In government bond trading, the yield on the 10-year Treasury note rose to 2.71 percent from 2.62 percent Monday. The yield is used as a benchmark to set interest rates on many kinds of loans including home mortgages.
In commodities trading, the price of oil rose 2 cents, or 0.1 percent, to $106.17 a barrel. Gold dropped $8, or 0.6 percent, to $1,326 an ounce.
European markets rose broadly following news that industrial production rose in the region in June. A German survey of investor confidence also came in better than analysts had expected.
The dollar rose against the euro and the Japanese yen.
Among stocks making big moves:
— PulteGroup fell 49 cents, or 3.1 percent, to $15.24, leading a broad decline in homebuilder stocks.
— Yum Brands, which owns the Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and KFC fast-food chains, slumped $2.5, or 3.3 percent, to $72.01 after reporting that its sales in China fell 13 percent in July.
— Xerox rose 26 cents, or 2.7 percent, to $10.42 after the stock was upgraded to "Buy" by analysts at Citigroup. The analysts predict that the company, one of the largest processors of health care claims and payments, will benefit from increased demand due to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, popularly known as Obamacare.
— Steinway fell $1.23, or 3.1 percent, to $38.36 after Bloomberg News reported that private equity firm Kohlberg & Co. had waived its right to negotiate with the piano maker after the company received a superior offer from an unidentified bidder.

One of the most secured facilities in every country is the national airport. With all the previous events that rattled the whole world, airport managements all around the globe take extra caution in maintaining the safety of the people coming in and going out of the facility. This is why they tapped a select group of people to ensure security. Airport security jobs are posted to those who are up for a bigger challenge and a greater responsibility.
Improving airport facilities through excellent security
Every day, there are millions of people from all over the world stepping in and out of airports. It is the one of the few places or facilities which enables people to pass through a certain state or country. Because of the crowd that fills up airports each day, security is of the highest priority.
The airport security team is the department that is responsible for ensuring the safety of all passengers, airport staff and employees. This huge undertaking requires security personnel that are mentally and physically strong. This is why applicants for airport security jobs go through a very rigorous and detailed process before being selected as part of the airport security team.
Unlike other security systems in other public facilities and establishments, airport security personnel don't just perform routine security checks. The extensive training involved with the various types of airport security jobs can be mentally and physically stressful for some applicant and only those who are qualified to do so are given the primary responsibility of taking care of the peace and order inside an airport facility.
Types of airport security jobs
Airports are always seen by many as a high risk public place. In lieu of past and recent events on terrorism and similar attacks, airport management groups are tasked to post airport security position openings and hire people who are willing to be of service to their country. There are several classifications of airport security jobs, where skills, pay and benefits differ depending on which area a person is assigned to.
The following are just some of the most common types of security jobs in airport facilities:
- Baggage screening security personnel
- Transport security manager
- Goods and other cargo inspector
- Assistant to federal security director for screening, inspection and general security operations
- Federal security director
- CCTV security personnel and many more
Three characteristics of excellent airport security personnel
The willingness to take on the responsibility of caring for public and national securityAirport security jobs have so many qualifications and requirements that need to be passed by any applicant hoping to be one of the airport's elite security team from years of trainings and experience to technical knowledge on x-ray machines, CCTV cameras, scanners and many more. However there are only three things that make an applicant stand out from all the rest. These are:
- The courage to face danger to protect the public from any kind of harm
The ability to think on your feet and act quickly and accordingly to any kind of emergency situation
If you think that you have these characteristics, it's time for you to explore the opportunity of being employed in airport security.

Hi There,
I enjoyed visiting your website today. I'm a neighbor at The Cliffs. I have two great close shots of a mother bobcat and her kitten that I took 3 weeks ago through my utility room glass door. I would be happy to send them to you. I just love the wildlife on our mountain.
