Most of the time, she's just a shy and conservative average nineteen year old. However, after a few beers she loses all of her inhibitions. Check out these naughty photos of this intoxicated exhibitionist. She goes around unbuttoning her shirt and flashing her perky boobs. She even pulls up her skirt and flashes her tender pussy. She doesn't care if there's other people around. She doesn't care what they think. She's living out one of her naughtiest fantasies! She never imagined that she would ever do something like this and she's getting so turned on doing it!

CATEGORIES FeaturesWhether it's about fresh starts, uncertain futures or the end of an era -- or, more importantly, who's kissing who at midnight -- New Year's Eve is inherently cinematic with its showers of fireworks, confetti and balloons. No wonder so many films fade out with a countdown, a kiss and the implied "... and they lived happily ever." Of course, not all new years begin in a lip lock with the love of your life; sometimes all that merriment is just a set-up for epic-sized disaster.
So bring on the kazoos and pop that champagne: We've rounded up 10 of the best New Year's Eve scenes in movie history. Happy New Year!
'The Gold Rush' (1925)
The first image that comes to mind when we mention Charlie Chaplin? Probably the Little Tramp's immortal "dinner roll dance" scene, or at least Johnny Depp's loving homage in 'Benny and Joon.' But we'll bet you didn't know that joyful bit of improv is a fantasy sequence in which the lonely Chaplin pretends to entertain the handful of guests he's invited -- but who don't show up -- to celebrate New Year's Eve with him. Chaplin always did have a knack for rendering the bittersweet beautiful, and vice versa.
'Holiday' (1938)
Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant were never more charming and heartbreakingly gorgeous than they are here as wealthy Linda and not-so-well-off Johnny. The two are clearly meant for each other, even though he's engaged to her sister, Julia. On New Year's Eve, Julia's engagement is supposed to be announced to their society friends, but Linda is boycotting the lavish party put on their father. She'd wanted to host a small gathering in her old playroom for just Johnny and Julia, but her party ends up with the right guests after all when Johnny arrives. He, Linda and his Vaudevillian friends show us what a real New Year's party looks like.
'Holiday Inn' (1942)
Bing Crosby picks New Year's Eve to debut his new inn, which, as the name says, is only open on holidays. Sure enough, it's a hit -- but when best friend Fred Astaire drunkenly crashes the party, Bing's romance with his star employee looks doomed. Does it all wrap up happily by the next New Year? Can Bing sing? The best clip we could find is (gasp!) colorized, but if you want to see Bing crooning about "kissing the old year out/kissing the new year in," in his original black-and-white glory, here's a shorter clip.
'The Apartment' (1960)
You have to love a New Year's romance that isn't sealed with a kiss, but with a game of gin rummy. The clip of the film's finale begins with Fran Kubelik (Shirley MacLaine) hearing a loud bang and assuming it's nice guy C.C. Baxter (Jack Lemmon) ending it all. Nope, he's just popping open a bottle of champagne to celebrate standing up to his heel of a boss. Good thing he's got an extra glass. After hearing that she's ditched her married boyfriend for him, C.C.'s declaration of love is met with the immortal words, "Shut up and deal."
'The Poseidon Adventure' (1972)
Just as a band of revelers ring in the New Year aboard the Poseidon, a rogue wave flips their luxury liner. (Yes, that's Leslie Nielsen, dead serious before his 'Airplane' days, and just plain dead as the doomed captain.) The resulting chaos is disaster-movie gold as survivors scramble to make it to the surface, led by Gene Hackman, whose quick thinking includes using that upside-down Christmas tree as a ladder out of the flooded ballroom. We're guessing New Year's Eve cruises took a dive after this movie hit theaters.
'The Godfather: Part II' (1974)
This is one kiss at midnight no one ever wants to get: It's New Year's Eve in Havana and the Corleones are on top of the world. Except that Fredo (John Cazale) has just made a slip that confirms brother Michael's (Al Pacino) fears that he's the traitor in the family. "I know it was you, Fredo. You broke my heart," says Michael (like we need to repeat dialogue you already have memorized) before giving him the notorious kiss of death in one of cinema's most riveting -- and most unforgettable -- scenes.
'When Harry Met Sally' (1989)
After Harry (Billy Crystal) and Sally (Meg Ryan) finally hook up, Harry does the classic guy thing and freaks out afterward. No wonder then that Sally keeps walking when he tells her, out of the blue, that he loves her. As Harry so eloquently puts it, "It's not because I'm lonely and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. ... When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible." And New Year's is as good a time as any, right? Which leads to the classic discussion about what the heck 'Auld Lang Syne' means anyway, because these two are pretty darn sure about everything else.
'Strange Days' (1995)
Although this flick came out a few years before it was set, it perfectly captures the anxiety and panic that preceded the millennial changeover. On a chaotic last day of the 20th century, Lenny (Ralph Fiennes, terrific against type as a scuzzy hustler) and bodyguard Mace (Angela Bassett) are caught up in a violent murder conspiracy. In the end scenes, Lenny and Mace can't quite believe they survived, and we can't quite believe that 1999 rolled over to 2000 with as little fuss as it did, although it's a gas to see everyone partying, one last time, like it's 1999. Did we mention the high-powered talent behind the camera: James Cameron ('Avatar') co-wrote the script and 'The Hurt Locker's Kathryn Bigelow directed.
'Bridget Jones's Diary' (2001)
When else would you end a movie chronicling the year in the life of one v. v. single Brit but on New Year's Eve? It takes all year for Bridget Jones (Renee Zellweger at her most endearing) to realize that pompous jerk Mark Darcy (Colin Firth) is actually Mr. Right. Too bad he finds her diary before they get things started and reads entry after entry about how "rude, unpleasant and dull" he is. When he runs out into the snow, she runs after him, wearing little more than her leopard-print undies. But it's a happy ending after all as he reveals he was merely buying her a new diary, so she could start the year off fresh. We'd say a kiss in the snow (in front of scandalized old ladies) is a pretty perfect way to begin.
'Sex and the City: The Movie' (2008)
While nearly everyone ends up happily ever after romance-wise, this big-screen adventure was, just like the series, more a celebration of true friendship than anything else. Take this scene, in which Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) journeys across town in the freezing snow to surprise Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) on New Year's Eve. Carrie arrives just as the ball drops in Times Square and the two stay up talking and laughing long into the morning. If that's not a Happy New Year, we don't know what is. (This clip is dubbed in Italian, but the Celtic 'Auld Lang Syne' on the soundtrack is all you really need to listen to.)

One of Albany's biggest weekends of the year is here. Tens of thousands of people are expected downtown Saturday for the Mardi Gras Street Festival. And thousands of out of town visitors are here for the annual Albany Marathon.
The race starts at 7:00AM, and because of high water from the Flint in Riverfront Park, it will finish in a new location, outside the Thronateeska Heritage Center. This will be the first time the city has used the new finish line, but runners shouldn't worry because this new route has been officially certified for Boston.
More than 1,400 runners are expected to cross this finish line. "Basically tomorrow morning this area is gonna be packed with people. We're gonna have spectators, we're gonna have runners and we're gonna have volunteers," said Lisa Riddle, Albany Marathon Board Member.
Mars, Miller/Coors and other sponsors will be set up at the finish line along with a hospitality tent offering massages. Awards will also be handed out near the back of Roosevelt Avenue. While workers set up the finish line, vendors were getting ready for the 11th annual Mardi Gras festival.
The city shut down parts of Pine Street, Front street and Broad Avenue around noon for the setup but this year's festival will have 25 fewer vendors. "We downsized it because we were starting to get a lot of complaints about duplicating merchandise, and the vendors weren't making as much money," said Phil Cannon, Lead Organizer.
Cannon expects more than 40,000 people will make it out to this year's event --- about ten thousand fewer than last year. Cold temperatures are to blame for the expected drop in attendance -- but at least blankets will be ready for the runners once they cross the finish line.
Volunteers and spectators should dress heavy for Saturday and expect very chilly temperatures. People should also arrive early and park behind the fire station or the courthouse.

So are the Jets for real after a last second FG to beat the Bucs? I'm thinking 'No' though I don't the Patriots are the class of of the AFC either. Vegas agrees at the Jets are 11 point dogs.
By the way, the Panthers are favored against Buffalo:
NFL Week 2 Picks Against The Spread: Predictions For Every Game ATS In The Second Week Of 2013
Carolina Panthers (-3) at Buffalo Bills - EJ Manuel came seconds away from upsetting the Patriots in his rookie debut. In their home opener, the Panthers offense looked rather sluggish against the Seattle Seahawks defense with only 253 total yards.
I wouldn't take the Panthers in this one but I as a rule don't bet on the Panthers (it jinxes them) so it's a good bet for someone else since I'm not taking them ;)
This is now an Open Thread!

The Charlotte Bobcats and Fox Sports South donated $200,000 to the YMCA program called Y Achievers on Thursday.
That's a program geared to help students succeed in school and to pursue a post secondary education. Students say participating in the program has kept them of the right road to academic achievement and excited about their future. The groups also handed out three individual college scholarships. Michael Jordan says he gets satisfied when he gives back to a community that has given back to him. Jordan was a member of YMCA when he was a child.
"Be it I am the owner of the Bobcats," Jordan said. "It's been so many people who have supported me through my whole career from North Carolina, 'cause I grew up here, so I feel compelled to be able to come back and make a big difference."
Jordan says community service was lagging when he took over and now he wants to change that.
"Over the last 2-3 years," Jordan said. "We have kind of rev'd it up a little bit to give back to the community because I felt like the integration between us and the community was not strong and I felt like it had to be strong."
Jewel Jefferies like Jordan is making the connection. She received a $5,000 college scholarship.
"It means I can pursue an education I want to go for," Jefferies said.
Jefferies is a senior at West Charlotte High school. She is going to college in the fall and says the scholarship was needed and motivates her to succeed.
"When they say hard work pays off," the student said. "It has to be something you want and you have to put your blood sweat and tears into it."
Jordan also paid a visit to West Mecklenburg HS and Vance HS to hand out a $5,000 college scholarships to two students.
The Bobcats owner said he wants to continue this support possibly in a bigger way next year.
"I feel good about it," Jordan said. "We are not trying to put limits on this. We are trying to look for situations in the community where we can make a difference."

From Tim Brown's well-written piece about his struggles with the latest Hall of Fame ballot:
What I know is this: I cannot vote for a player who used performance-enhancing drugs, or one who I strongly believe used them. I wish I didn't care. But I do.
All I can say is I did my best. I think I've softened some on my previous hard-line ballots, even voting for players I've not voted for previously. As a result, I've submitted seven players, more than I ever have.
They are: Jeff Bagwell, Craig Biggio, Edgar Martinez, Mike Piazza, Tim Raines, Curt Schilling and Larry Walker.
It's a tough ballot. You're allowed to vote for 10 candidates, and there are more than 10 players with solid Hall of Fame credentials, statistically speaking. I think Edgar Martinez wouldn't make my cut and I'm also not 100% committed to Larry Walker yet. But Brown's seven candidates were all great players, and all of them better than Jim Rice.
My one quibble is that I would be willing to bet good money that at least three of those seven used performance-enhancing drugs. Illegally. Not even including amphetamines.
Someday, we'll know a lot more about what happened in the 1990s and the 2000s. We'll find out that a bunch of Hall of Famers, players Tim Brown voted for, at least dabbled in steroids.
When that happens, where will he, and we, be?

Ever wondered what it is like to be a jones + jones model? Want to know more about the gorgeous girls who model for us? Meet Elle one of the jones + jones models, who won the chance to be one of our models and hasn't looked back since!
Tell us about yourself?
My name is Elle Paige, I am eighteen years old and I live in a little village in the South of Yorkshire. My house is surrounded by fields and a golf course! I am currently coming to the end of my A Levels. I am studying three subjects, Maths, Economics and ICT. I hope to go on to gain a joint degree in Mathematics and Economics. My interests include traveling into the cities (London being my favourite) and to other countries. I'm lucky that my modelling takes me to some really cool and quirky places. When I have the time I enjoy cooking and and going to the gym. I love, love, love shopping and I am always keeping my eye out for the next trends. I have a part time job in Topshop, which is great as it's my favorite shop at the moment!
Tell us about the shoots you have been on with jones + jones?
I've had great fun on the jones + jones shoots with a fab team. Locations have taken us from buzzing street scenes in the heart of London, out in the open in beautiful parks outside the city, rooftops in Paris, the coastline of St Tropez and more recently, magnificent Madeira.
Which was your favourite city you visited for a shoot and why?
I don't even have to think about this one. It's Paris. It's the most beautiful and elegant city I have visited to date. I love the fashion, the food, the buildings, the French accent…everything! We also great fun shooting the jones + jones video walking down the front in St Tropez. We stopped traffic and the crowds gathered to shoot us being filmed!
Out of all the photos taken of you which is your favourite?
I love interesting backgrounds/props. Although the main focus of the shoot is to show off the dresses to their best, I just love the whole look of the background and the pose in this photo. It has a real 'model' feel to it and I think it would look great in any glossy magazine.
What is your favourite jones + jones dress and why?
I love the Fabienne dress! It is so on trend with the fabric and style. It's surprisingly comfortable to wear and I get loads of compliments when I wear it. I can change the colour of my shoes, bag and make-up and it feels like I have a different outfit on!
What is your favourite part about being a jones + jones model?
Well I adore wearing the outfits of course! It might sound a bit clichéd but we really are like one big family when we get together. I feel like the baby of the family and I get spoiled by the bosses! I also like that we sometimes get to have a say in the overall look of the outfit/scene/pose. Everyone just works so well together.
Who is your style icon?
I love the 80's super model look of the gorgeous Cindy Crawford and Elle Macpherson. I'd like to have a mixture of their natural beauty with curves in the right places and throw in a dash of Rihanna's glam street fashion look.
Keep checking the blog to meet another jones + jones models soon and to find out more about what goes on behind the scenes on our amazing location photo shoots!
With love, jones + jones team x

Seventy-five percent of LilSugar readers said they let their tots play with their device, and the variety of applications that do everything from entertain tots and organize mom to track lil ones' feeding schedules have made it mama's best friend. Since the January introduction of the iPad, tech-savvy mums have been drooling over the new gizmo's functionality, large screen, and long battery life. With the first iPads hitting stores this weekend, here are five reasons moms will want to add them to their arsenal. Calendar What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Keeping track of everyone in the family's activities is a full-time job. The iPad's large screen makes it easy to view upcoming events and move around appointments by simply touching the screen, making the traditional daily planner obsolete. 1 / 5 Photos What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Keeping track of the family photos has never been easier, or prettier. The iPad's photo applications allow mamas to store, sort, and display their lil ones' pictures in intuitive ways. The apps' slideshow feature also beautifully displays the images for all to see. 2 / 5 Movies What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Vacation bags just got a whole lot lighter. No need to pack a personal DVD player, computer, and gaming device with the iPad's 9.7-inch screen. Just download your tot's favorite movies and open up the device on your next flight. The large screen and unbelievably clear picture make an event out of viewing movies — and more than one person can watch them at the same time. 3 / 5 Books What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Mama may love her Kindle, but that Amazon device doesn't have the capability to show images. The iPad will allow parents to download both the latest bestsellers for their own use and their wee one's favorite children's books. 4 / 5 Recipes What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The iPad's portability means that mama's favorite recipes can all be located in one place and can be pulled up at any time. Chefs and their budding sous-chefs can either download their favorite recipe apps to search for new dishes, or they can save their favorites on the device, creating a virtual cookbook that sits right on the counter. 6 / 5 0 7 0 0 0 Read More Kids Apps And GamesTechnologyiPad Link Love Mom forced to stop feeding baby homemade formula — BabyCenter Blog The easiest ways to save on organic food — The Stir A look inside Fergie's second baby shower — Celebrity Baby Scoop Danielle Jonas debuts her baby bump — People Moms & Babies 7 light and fresh recipes to take you through Summer — FitPregnancy Does where you live affect your risk for PPD? — The Bump Where to find the best deals on school supplies — Real Simple Now this is how you announce a pregnancy! — HuffPost Parents

Sustainable Parks
Welcome to Sustainable Parks!
2012 Progress Update
Download the 2012 Progress Update to the 2011 Plan (PDF) to learn how NYC Parks has improved employee and public engagement around sustainability, decreased greenhouse gas emissions, expanded leaf composting and recycling, and incorporated sustainability into the design and construction of new parks.
Download the full A Plan for Sustainable Practices within NYC Parks
Proud to be known as "New York City's Greenest," Parks and the people that make up this agency are leading New York City in its effort to be more sustainable. The Sustainable Parks section of our website shows what Parks is doing to reduce its carbon footprint across the five boroughs. You can view our agency's key green accomplishments and see how we continue to plan, manage, and grow the City's green spaces in an eco-friendly way.
Browse through the agency's inaugural Sustainable Parks Plan (PDF) to learn more about how Parks plans to build on these accomplishments in the future and reinforce sustainable practices throughout the agency's culture. The Plan is a starting point for grouping sustainable practices within Parks into a more cohesive framework so we can measure and track progress over time. This document will be updated regularly. For more information on sustainability initiatives at Parks, email email@example.com.
What is Sustainability?
Sustainability is a commitment to social, economic and environmental factors that promote long-term survival, a capacity to endure and a sustained quality of life. Most important, it means to think about the impact our actions have on the environment, on the economy and on future generations. At Parks, sustainability provides the lens for addressing many of the agency's most pressing challenges.
Sustainability at Parks means:
- Designing capital projects using long-lasting materials and plants that are easy to maintain.
- Conserving and restoring natural areas to protect biodiversity.
- Reducing carbon emissions by making our fleet and buildings more energy efficient.
- Reducing the impacts of climate change by ensuring our parks can withstand flooding and capture stormwater.
- Engaging New Yorkers in the stewardship and care of their parks.
We hope the features in this section will inspire you to get involved in this important movement. To make New York City the greenest it can be, we need everyone to pitch in. Together, let's prove we're able to be sustainable.

Palestinian soccer drama—'Team' building for social change
"Everyone is playing with us, all the powers and states, but I am player, not a ball," he says. He speaks of his training as an engineer and political activism that resulted in a prison sentence. In 1996, a poem by Syrian Nizar Qabbani, "A Drawing by Blood"—"I tried to pray to many Gods / at the end I discovered I pray for myself"—moved Otham to "think beyond the big slogans such as 'the Holy Land.' " Other experiences, along with literary works such as Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist (see 8 Nov 07), convinced him to leave politics. Otham turned to culture, believing that "culture and justice bring peace." He continues:
Palestinians always show the victims, the evils of the occupation. That exists, but we wanted to concentrate on the personal lives, what happens at home, relations between people. We are presenting a new look at the Palestinians. Many people in the West have images of Palestinians as bad people. With drama we can speak about our dreams, how to build things together, how we will be when we have our own state, the power of the group to shape its future. The team represents the
Palestinian society.
The Team is a co-production of Ma'an, an independent non-profit Palestinian news agency and media network, and Search for Common Ground. In eight years of existence Ma'an has excelled in news reporting and in producing dramas, including the popular Seriously Joking. Committed to Palestinian political and cultural independence, Ma'an has remained open to multiple perspectives. It regularly runs Israeli TV news broadcasts and interviews with leading Israeli journalists and scholars. Despite its professional and peaceful approach, in January Israeli authorities deported Ma'an's English-language editor.
Search for Common Ground helps create radio and television programs that offer alternatives to conflict. Soccer provides a logical subject and common language in many places where ethnic and national enmity prevail. The Palestinian series will soon be followed by an Israeli series based in the city of Ramlah/al-Ramlah where Jews and Arabs live side by side, but not always harmoniously.
Later in the day of my visit, crews film several scenes at a match between Palestinian team Shabab Al-Khalil and Wahdat Amman from Jordan. The match takes place in the crowded Al-Hussein stadium in Hebron, and spectators include Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad. The importance of the sport to Palestinian national aspirations and sense of identity is also clear a month later at a game between the national women's teams of Palestine and Jordan, witnessed by 12,000.
As I leave the studio and head back to the border crossing we drive past a half-built structure. "Hotel Paradise," a sign declares.

vacation rental description
Perched on a bluff with bald eagles around, the Captains Cabin waterfront home commands an enviable perch with a view that goes forever.
The entry way is through a vine covered arched trellis opening onto a cobblestone courtyard. Upon entry, you are surrounded by a courtyard filled with the Captains memorabilia, and a wonderful garden, complete with treasures from his years abroad.
The stairs lead to a manly entrance flanked by copper drains, and glass lighting from the Far East. The entrance hall is 9 feet high with magnificent art around, including a painting of his fastest clipper ship, the Enlim. Once through, you enter a great room unlike any you have ever seen, with ceilings up to 11 feet.
At the heart of it is the Captains old dining table off the HMS Katania, the Captains first command; you'll spin your own yarns with meals at this beauty.
Of course, there are all the modern conveniences and the finest hand built cabinetry. The kitchen sink is a masterpiece hewn of copper by Whidbey himself as a gift passed on to the captain from his descendants. The living room fireplace is trimmed in the richest burl, direct from the master's quarters on the Kayana, one of the Captains most famous flagships.
Finally, there are the decks that surround the great room; with a grand view of Honeymoon Bay, the Captains bay.
Then there are the bedrooms...
The guest VIP, with vaulted ceilings, with a large King Bed, has French doors to its own deck and afternoon courtyard, as does the den; all with the finest electronics for personal entertainment.
The Captains bedroom is a magnificent affair, with the center bed a king size four posted gift from Prince Sulawi, whom the Captain saved from pirates near Mindanao. The Armoir is one of the finest pieces of antique French walnut furniture of its kind, a gift of gratitude from Madame DuClair.
Of course, his room opens onto the same magnificent view; watch it changes as the sun moves across the sky.
On the water side there is a wonderful cobble courtyard. Follow a brief path out to the bluff watch where the Captain took his morning chicory, an exotic brew whose recipe was never divulged, even to the Wench. This wonderful spot is has a natural cabana of evergreens and Madrona's...there is something magical and inspirational about this little setting, so unique and picturesque.
From the deck, there is also a winding path to the beach, and bulkhead where the Captain kept his dingy at the ready to go to his Katania, the ship he purchased from the Royal Navy upon her retirement for his own private corsair. The modern day Katania, one of the finest private yachts in the world, owned by the Captains grand nephew, was recently hailed by the actress Hilary Swank as the most beautiful in the world.

IDF troops have been standing guard on the Egypt-Israel border over a group of
around 20 African migrants – including a pregnant woman – for the past five
The migrants are stuck in a sort of limbo, on the wrong side of the
border fence, but within the territory of the State of Israel, yet being kept
from entering the country by the soldiers. At the same time they are refusing to
be sent back to Egypt.
The IDF Spokesman's Office said Tuesday that "in
the area in question the border has been completed recently in order to stop
unapproved entry to Israel.
On the Western side of the border, turning
towards Egypt, is a group of foreigners whose entry to Israel is being prevented
by the fence. Due to humanitarian concerns the IDF is giving them
In early August, it was reported that a group of African migrants
became stuck in a culvert under the Egyptian-Israel border and were being
guarded by IDF troops. The IDF Spokesman's Office said at the time that "in
light of the foreigners' condition, humanitarian concerns and the unique aspects
of the situation, the decision was taken to make an exception and bring them to
the Israeli side of the fence."
Also in August, a group of Israeli NGOs
released a report that stated that IDF soldiers are patrolling hundreds of
meters within Egyptian territory in order to detain asylum seekers before they
reach Israel and turn them over to Egyptian authorities.
According to
official government figures, the nearly complete border fence has significantly
cut down on the amount of illegal migrants crossing into Israel.
Population, Immigration and Border Authority announced this week that over the
course of the month of August only 200 illegal migrants entered Israel, as
opposed to 2,000 in August 2011.

This is a question that is asked, and answered, very regularly. Please read the 'sticky' threads at the top of the forum and have a look through past discussions for general tips on promoting your website – we don't need to have these generic points repeated again.
If you want specific advice on your own website, that would be considered a review. We have a special forum for reviews and critiques, but please note that you must write reviews of three other sites already there before you request your own review (please do read the rules on that forum before posting your request).
If you have any further specific questions about internet marketing then please come back and start them in a new thread. I'm closing this one because the generic nature of the question means it is unlikely to attract any worthwhile replies that we haven't already seen dozens of times before.

Smoke alarms alert Wirral householders to kitchen fire
Updated 9:35am Friday 10th January 2014 in News
SMOKE alarms alerted residents to a kitchen fire earlier this morning.
Crews from Birkenhead and Wallasey fire stations were called to Park Road North, Birkenhead, at around 1.30am.
Two firefighters wearing breathing apparatus entered the property and tackled the blaze with a hose. The fire was extinguished by around 2am.
Watch manager Simon Swann, who attended the incident with Green Watch from Birkenhead fire station, said: "Smoke alarms were present in the property, activated and alerted the occupiers.
"They exited the property and awaited our arrival. They did the right thing – if you discover a fire, get out, stay out and call 999.
"We also advise people have working smoke alarms on each level of their home. Smoke alarms can give vital early warning of a fire."
Firefighters carried out a home fire safety check.

This is such a cool lens!, I have been itchin to get one for along time!, but I have heard of so many people getting bad copies out there.
I think that is because people with proper working gear don't usually shout from the rooftops that their lens works like it was expected to. I have this lens. Works flawlessly on my 5DII and 7D without any micro focus adjusting.
I'd go into a store though and try a copy to make sure THAT LENS is within the tolerances of YOUR CAMERA.

Big 12 Media Days aren't just about the football players and coaches, but also the cheerleaders and mascots for each team.
The mascots form an interesting fraternity of sorts and one that WVU's Jonathan Kimble does not necessarily fit in with. Some other media were surprised to see a talking mascot, but to Mountaineer fans, this is nothing new.
So we handed over our microphone to Kimble and let him go around to most of the mascots who were present (TCU's Horned Frog was apparently at a cheer camp) and let him see what it's like to be the only one able to communicate with the spoken word.

Poachers destroy turtle nests
Date: June 12, 2009
by: Robin Roy | City Editor
Poachers have stolen eggs from four Loggerhead sea turtle nests from Casey Key and Venice beaches. The clutches of eggs were all taken in the past week.
Loggerheads are a threatened species and are protected by county, state and federal laws. Possessing sea turtle eggs without a permit can result in up to a year in prison and fines of more than $100,000.
It's suspected the eggs were stolen for food or to sell on the black market.

By Alex Lippa
---- — DERRY— What started off as a routine shopping trip to Walmart, nearly turned into disaster for Elaine Hodnett.
The Derry resident was buying cat litter March 4 when she felt something was off.
"Both my wedding and engagement rings were gone," she said. "It was a feeling of utter, profound devastation."
But just a half hour later, both rings were back in her possession with the help of an eagle-eyed customer and some Walmart employees. Hodnett estimated the pink sapphire and white diamond rings were valued at $5,000.
"I was just absolutely astonished to get them back," she said. "I couldn't believe it."
When Hodnett, 52, noticed her rings were gone, she went right to the customer service desk to report them missing. After employees told her that nothing had been turned in, she thought all hope was lost.
"I had thought the odds were slim to none I'd ever see them again," Hodnett said. "I thought they were bound for a pawn shop."
Hodnett continued shopping, but began kicking herself for something. Hodnett has recently lost a lot of weight and had just finished up a diet class before she headed to Walmart. At the class, the topic of her rings came up.
"We were talking about the fact that our rings were all too loose," she said. "I was going to make an appointment with the jeweler to get them resized."
She began to retrace her steps. She dug through the recycling she had just dropped off and walked back to the parking lot looking for the rings.
She went back into the store, did her shopping, then returned to the customer service desk, hoping for the best. While she waited in line, she overheard part of the employees' conversation.
"I saw the floor manager saying, 'We have to call her since she was so devastated,'" Hodnett said.
She yelled to get the employees' attention and ran to the front of the line, where the employees handed over her rings.
An assistant manager at the Derry Walmart said she could not comment.
Hodnett was overjoyed, but the first thing she wanted to know was who found the rings.
"I wanted to not only thank them, but reward them," she said.
But none of the employees knew. The man didn't give his name.
"All I know was that he was smoking outside in the parking lot," Hodnett said.
The employees told Hodnett the man came back into the store with one ring. But when they told him that Hodnett had reported two rings missing, he went back to look for the other one.
"He then went back out to the parking lot, found the other ring and turned the second ring in," Hodnett said.
When Hodnett returned home and told husband Steve what happened, he said he would have replaced the rings, but that would not have meant as much to his wife.
"The sentimental value of these rings are far greater than the price value," she said. "This signifies the moments we knew we were meant to be together."
Elaine and Steve will be going to the Bahamas in July to celebrate their fifth wedding anniversary. On her hand will be two properly fitting rings.
"I made an appointment with Jared (jewelers) to get them resized right away," she said.
Since the incident, Hodnett has returned to Walmart several times in search of something — finding the hero who found her rings.
She has spoken to walmart managers, but hasn't been able to identify the man or the employees who helped her find her rings.
"That type of integrity and honesty is rare these days," she said. "I really am desperate to be able to find out who this was so I can thank him and reward him."

The Bills and WR Stevie Johnson have exchanged contract proposals and plan to meet at the Combine next week, according to WGR-AM 550 in Buffalo and the Buffalo News.
Johnson, who is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent, postponed contract talks during the season. The Bills submitted a proposal over a week ago, and Johnson's agent, C.J. LaBoy, countered the offer on Monday.
Johnson is coming off back-to-back 1,000-yard receiving seasons.
The way we see it
This is a positive sign for the Bills that talks are ongoing and appear to be headed in the right direction. A franchise tag is possible for Johnson, but the Bills are better off, in terms of the salary cap, signing him to a long-term deal. His endzone antics and drops were a problem, but he is still clearly the team's top receiving option.

Thanks to both splax23 and punkrkr27 for a few bottles of this in a recent trade. Sold during the Summer Solstice 2011. 12oz bottle for $17.50 a bottle...I'll assess this issue throughout this review. On the label it says "A sparkling Mead with a roasted malt character." It also says both "Mead" and "Braggot" on the label, so I guess its open to interpretation. Split with brian23456 and hu5om after brewing up out first batch of mead. Served into small snifters:
First off...damn, this bottle is expensive! I love Kuhnhenn but $17.50 a bottle...this better be awesome!
A - Pours a murky brown with plum purple, red hues around the edges when held up to the light. Little bubbles of carbonation around the edges. Slight lacing and nice brown legs. This one sort of stains the glass.
S - Loads of oak, maple syrup, brown sugar and some nice tones of honey. Really smells more like its been aged in port wine barrels than bourbon. A bit of roast, plums and raisins and a touch of cranberry. Sooo much going on here. $17.50 isn't sounding too bad at this point...
T - The sweetness of the honey really comes through here, with touches of citrus and pears. Red grapes, grape skins, and a pleasant cabernet/port flavors in the beginning/middle and a slight chardonnay tone to round out the taste. $17.50 really isn't sounding too bad at this point...
M - Thick and heavy, yet smooth. Reminds me of Utopias without the booze heat/burn. Little tingle of the carbonation but that rounds it out smoothly.
O - So, I have money...where can I buy a case of this? Wow, this brew is way impressive. Everything is so complex with this brew that I was blown away. The smells, flavors and texture were extremely well done. I've had a few meads from Kuhnhenn's now, but this one is far beyond any of them and a lot more rich and complex. When compared in price to a bottle of Utopias, $17.50 doesn't sound bad at all for the quality you get in a bottle. I can tell these bottles will age with the best of them and I'm grateful to have two more bottles in the cellar. Now...where can I get more?

Thanks to bu11zeye for sharing this bottle. This was part of an epic 20 mead tasting, with 16 Kuhnhenn meads on hand.
Pours a dark brown to black color with a few tan bubbles. The aroma is heavy on the chocolate with some bourbon and honey notes mixed in. The flavor is more of the same. I get a lot of bourbon notes as well as some chocolate, honey and a little bit of soy. Medium mouthfeel. Nice, but I kind of wish the bourbon character was a little lighter.

huge thanks to sliverx for sharing this at our last tasting!
2011 Vintage. 12oz bottle poured into a bruery snifter.
pours out pretty much black with minimal head but lots of thick sticky legs left on the glass.
the aroma is full of sweet mead like notes, lots of molasses, honey, dark fruits.
wow, so flavorful. pure raisons have to be the most predominant flavor. ive never had a raisony taste this pure in any beer before this. big port and sherry notes, but still lots of mead qualities. sweet honey, molasses and soy with a touch of vanilla and slight hints of bourbon. so nice...
carbonation was just a touch on the spritzy side, but the body of this is thick and syrupy. feels a lot like drinking a wine, but there is also a beery like feel.
this is really quite an amazing beverage. so unique and complex. ive never had anything close to this and doubt i ever will. definatly in the top 10 beers of all time for me.

Absolutely inspiring delicious braggot, a great mead. Black bodied, roast and wine aroma. A great drinker despite the alcohol. Some raison,honey,wood, malt and hops, the bourbon is merely another rich aspect of the complex flavour.Only a tad astringent. Something special. Thanks for sharing Tim.

Thanks to Luke for sharing this bottle. Out of a snifter.
A- Dark brownish black. No head, no lacing. Pretty simple.
S- Port/Brandy, and some soy sauce. I also get some dark fruit, bourbon, and all around sweeteness. Smells pretty darn delicious.
T- This stuff tastes pretty insane. The first thing that came to mind was grape cough syrup. Lots of notes of plums, grapes, and sweet bourbon.
M- It definitely was interesting, particulary the thick sweet body of this beer. Very low carbonation.
O- This beer was very interesting. Doubt I could finish a bottle by myself, but was happy to have tried it. Very unique flavor.

3.03/5 rDev -31.1%
A - Black beer with a bruby reddish hue in the light. Brown head fizled up about half a finger and disappeared pretty quickly without leaving much stick on the sides.
S - Carmalized sugar, honey, raisins, prunes, some booze. Massively sweet, almost knocked me over with the amount of sweetness in here. Not sure this is going to be my thing, but can't say it's lacking for aroma.
T - Tastes a lot like it smells. Very, very sweet. Lots of honey and dark fruit, prunes, figs, raisins, you name it, it's there. Not a ton of bourbon on this, seems like the honey has managed to cover it quite well. Just the slightest bit of of wood. It's so incredibly sweet and potent I can't really get a ton down. Sipper for certain.
M - Smooth, full bodied, syrupy, low carbonation.
O - NOt entirely sure what to make of this. Flavor is okay, but so heavy on the sweet stuff it is fatiguing. I guess a certain type of person would go for this, but it's not me, particularly at the exhorbitant $17.50 price for 12 oz.

Thanks for this one, Steve.
Pours almost black in color with a very small off-white head. Pure booze on the nose. A bit of actual bourbon, but primarily booze. There is a little bit of honey and sweet malt, too. The sweetness is almost overwhelming. Pure honey and graham cracker, maybe some vanilla. A little bit of bourbon, but quite a bit of booze overall. Medium body with very low carbonation.

2011 vintage. Loved this my first time trying it back in Nov'11, hope it's still as good as I remembered.
Black pour, minimal head, beady lace. Strange aroma of bourbon, soy sauce, honey, (mild) rubber tires, booze, and raisins. Super weird, but I kinda dig it.
Taste somehow brings all of the above together in a harmonious blend. Rubbery and soy saucey for a moment before fading into honey-soaked dark fruits, then somehow finishes bone dry with lingering bourbon. Not sure what the hell just happened here, but I love it!
ZERO booze content in the taste, in typical Kuhnhenn style. Again, it's weird as hell, but something about it clicks for me. Need another bottle (or five) of this stuff, STAT!

Another great Braggot from Kuhnhenn. Pours a dark brown, near black. Nose has mead, oak, bourbon, molasses, dark malts, soy, cocoa and vanilla. Taste has a nice sweet honey presence along with a big roasty bourbon barrel aged stout. Near perfect, I just wish it was a bit less roasty/bitter. Medium to full body has a nice light carbonation. Fantastic.

Thanks to splax23 for this brew in a fall-time trade. As usual, didn't realize this was an ABV-killer until after popping the top, but hey, oh well.
Pour is black, with a head that wouldn't even warrant a comb-over, & vanishes almost as it appears. Metric ton of sweetness in the nose, & no end to the burnt honey. Nose-curling booze.
Imperial Bourbon Barrel Braggot is a sticky sweet, crap-your-pants, alcoholic bomb. But instead of stinging, it's syrupy alcohol, like a overly rich brandy, though that's not quite right either. But pretty close. Massive dose of dark honey, of course. Knowing all the types of flavors that can be imparted to honey by the pollen the bees are feeding on, I wish I could pick that out, because it tastes familiar. Strong vanilla character standing in for the barrel, I presume. Caramel & toffee underneath the riot. Wildly sticky & gummy in the mouth. So good that one twelve ounce bottle didn't seem enough at first, but as I dig deeper, well, it might just be. I'm almost full already.
Insane beer. Of the braggots I've tasted, this one is a category-killer, just complex & delicious, the one I've been looking for. Simply incredible.

Bottle shared with Sean. I can't remember who picked this up for me at Kuhnhenn, but thanks!
A - A thin, quick-dissolving tan foam settles to nothing. Very dark brown body, with a glass-coating film to it.
S - Incredibly sweet, and quite delicious. Big mead component, with light roast from the beer, chocolate-dipped cherries, some bourbon, and light oak and vanilla.
T - There's a bit more chocolate and dry roast here, and a light char and oxidation note. I'm not sure if it occurred during the barrel-aging or from the age but I wouldn't sit on bottles any further. Mead and oaky barrel and vanilla come out significantly more as this warms up, slowly overwhelming the beer characteristics.
M - Super smooth for 15%. Low carbonation, a touch of roast and a good deal of tannic oak in the finish. Full-bodied, as you'd expect.
D - Very good stuff, with Kuhnhenn's usual well-hidden alcohol. I'd recommend drinking this closer to room temperature to minimize the mild oxidation note and maximize the mead characteristics. Sean and I put down 12oz with minimal trouble. Hope they make this one again.

Remove the haze from your landscape photos with this incredible plugin for Adobe® Photoshop® and Adobe Photoshop Elements. The speciality of Neutralhazer is detecting the thickness of air in each pixel which allows for the definition of the areas of foreground and background: you can therefore keep the foreground intact and gradually remove the haze in the background, while choosing an intensity of correction.
Main features
• Gradually remove haze of the background and foreground
Haze: a recurring phenomenon
Haze is an atmospheric phenomenon that appears in most landscape photos; it reduces the visibility and can thus overshadow some interesting parts of the background: mountains, trees, or simply the sky. Haze can spoil most pictures and landscape panoramas. The Neutralhazer plugin effectively allows you to remove the haze and adjust the intensity of correction. It thus restores the landscape with all its clarity.
How does Neutralhazer work?
Remove the haze from your landscape photos and reveal all their colors using Neutralhazer, the new plugin for Photoshop developed by Kolor. The great strength of Neutralhazer is that it detects the air thickness of each pixel which allows you to define the background and foreground areas: reveal the background in this way, without altering the foreground. In an instant, give back all the colors that your photos deserve.
The depth map
Neutralhazer detects the depth of different parts of your photos. It also allows you to: view the depth map to accurately adjust the areas of background and foreground & export the depth map for direct use in Photoshop (useful to use it as a mask).

Most of the time subwoofers are stashed in corners, under couches and anywhere else that might make their boxy presence less noticeable. At the CEDIA Expo in Indianapolis last week Niles introduced two new subs that are small and powerful enough to go just about anywhere—including being suspended from the ceiling.
Both the SW6.5 (11 pounds and measuring 10 inches cubed) and SW8 (16.5 pounds and measuring 12 inches cubed) come with a built-in bracket-mount that is compatible with the optional OmniMount® 30.0 ST-MP to allow easy wall or ceiling mounting. An optional Niles SW-T wireless transceiver and SW-R receiver that easily attaches to a built-in mounting port on the rear of the subwoofers eliminates the need for wiring.
The SW6.5 is a 6.5-inch subwoofer; and the SW8 is an 8-inch sub, both featuring a piano-black finish. Pairing a long-throw front-firing woofer with dual long-throw side-mounted passive radiators, the compact subwoofers deliver the power of subwoofers four times their size.
In addition to the designer-friendly features, the SW6.5 and SW8 feature automated turn-on via 12 volt trigger or audio signal sensing and include a built in CAT5 balun to enable audio delivery over easy-to-use CAT5 cable.
As for the audio, the SW6.5 produces 200W RMS power and up to 800W peak power through a 6.5" active driver and two 6.5" passive radiators with a frequency response of 42-200Hz.
The SW8 ups the ante, producing 300W RMS power and up to 1200W peak power through an 8" active driver and two 8" passive radiators with a frequency response of 36-200Hz.
Both models include both LFE and stereo line level inputs and unbuffered stereo pass-through line outputs, allowing up to four subwoofers to be wired from a single receiver output. The adjustable frequency control features a bypass positions, eliminating low pass filtering within the subwoofer, and variable phase control (0°-180°) allows for precise phase matching with the main speakers.
The SW6.5 and SW8 retail for $499.95 and $599.95, respectively.

NEW ORLEANS – Police are looking for at least two men who pulled off a brazen robbery where they used a pickup truck and a chain to pull an ATM out of a business.
The incident occurred early Thursday morning at Soprano's Grocery Store in the 2700 block of Ursulines Avenue.
According to police, the men backed up the truck into the store's parking lot and used a chain and the truck to pull open the front door, at which time they hooked the chain to the ATM machine and with the truck, yanked it out of the wall.

STATEMENT BY SENATOR J. W. FULBRIGHT IN THE U. S. SENATE JULY 24, 1957 on H. R. 6127. Mr. President, a long time ago when I was a boy attending a small town high school there was an occasion when I felt terribly let down concerning a man for whom at that time I had a profound respect in a kind of youthful hero worship. The man was George Washington, But I felt terribly let down toward him when I read these lines about him in a text by Edward Everett. Everett began his text in this way: "Washington," he said, "was pre-eminently a man of common sense," Naturally as a boy I had thought of Washington in terms of the famous painting of Washington Crossing the Delaware, There he stood, cloaked and determined looking, in a small boat crossing the broad river, amid cakes of ice, on his way to destroy the Hessians on the other side of the Delaware. I was told that this hero of mine, this fighter, this dashing soldier, was distinguished primarily by common sense, It was only years later that I began to understand the significance of Everett's text. It was only later that I began to understand that without Washington's balance — indeed his common sense — it is probable that this great country of ours might never have been founded as a democracy. And it was only later that I discovered that among men common- sense is a most uncommon quality. -1-

PEÑITAS—The Peñitas 2nd Annual Christmas Posada and Toy Giveaway is not like your average toy distribution; the city has competitions, food, toys and games fit for the whole family. The posada is scheduled for Saturday, Dec. 8, from 4 to 9 p.m. at the Peñitas City Park.
The Peñitas White Wing Festival board handles the planning of all social events for the city. President of the board, Homer Tijerina, said the Posada is an event put together by the city with the help of the Peñitas Public Library and the Peñitas Police Department.
"We are going to have live music, bands from La Joya Independent School District, food, drinks, hay rides, moon jumps and a playground," Tijerina said.
Performances from the Silver Bullet Band, Grupo Folklorico Ozomatli, La Tradicion, Palmview High School Band, Palmview Choir and La Revancha are scheduled through out the event.
Younger children, up to the age of 12, will have the opportunity to play in the moon jump and participate in activities for their age range. Six bikes (three boys and three girls) will also be raffled off to this age group.
"We will have different games for kids from ages 13 to 18," Tijerina said. "We will have a small basketball tournament, football and soccer competitions. We will also be raffling off two iPod shuffles for this age group."
Among these activities, the tree lighting ceremony will be hosted by the Peñitas White Wing Festival Royal Court and lit by the queen. Tijerina added a Christmas home decorating contest winner will be awarded at the Posada. First place will receive a plaque and $100; second and third places will receive plaques as well.
Santa Claus will also be part of the Christmas bash from 6 to 9 p.m.; he will help distribute the 760 toys purchased by the city.
"Toys were purchased through all of the events we have had all year, the White Wings Festival in September helped a lot," Tijerina said. "Everyone from the city is welcome to join us."
Parents are advised to bring a bill or type of identification that states they are a resident from Peñitas in order for their children to receive a gift.
