Romney ridicules Gingrich on eve of Florida vote
DUNEDIN, Florida
DUNEDIN, Florida (Reuters) - A confident Mitt Romney solidified his lead in Florida polls and ridiculed Republican rival Newt Gingrich on Monday, calling his opponent's attacks "sad" and "painfully revealing" the day before the state's crucial presidential primary.
Romney's self-assuredness was on full display during a campaign tour that felt at times like a victory lap, with the front-runner telling a crowd of 2,000 in Dunedin, Florida: "With a turnout like this I got a feeling we might win tomorrow."
Romney has a double-digit lead in most polls in the state, where he said voters responded to his more aggressive criticism over the past week of Gingrich's work for mortgage giant Freddie Mac, his ethics probe and his resignation as U.S. House of Representatives speaker.
"There's no question that politics ain't bean bags, and we have made sure that our message is out loud and clear," Romney said on NBC's "Today" show.
Gingrich, hit hard last week by a more aggressive Romney strategy, branded his rival as a party insider and elite friend of Wall Street while pledging to stay in the presidential race for the long haul no matter what the outcome in Florida.
"On big philosophical issues, he is for all practical purposes a liberal and I am a conservative and that's what this fight is going to be about all the way to the convention," he said of Romney on "CBS This Morning."
Romney shrugged off the continued Gingrich attacks, drawing cheers from the crowd when he said Gingrich was not doing too well and had been "flailing about."
"I know, it's sad isn't it?" Romney said, calling it "painfully revealing" and adding: "You've just gotta shake your head."
The bitter back-and-forth in Florida was hardly surprising after two turbulent weeks in what is widely considered the most volatile Republican race for the White House in recent memory.
Just 10 days ago, Romney was limping out of South Carolina, where he came in second. Now Florida is his for the taking after prominent conservatives and party leaders threw their weight behind him, worried a Gingrich nomination would doom Republicans in November's general election against President Barack Obama.
Gingrich said heavy spending by Romney, the former Massachusetts governor, and the Super PAC that supports Romney had killed the momentum Gingrich built with a double-digit win over Romney on January 21 in South Carolina.
"He can bury me for a very short amount of time with four or five or six times as much money, most of it raised in Wall Street from the guys who got bailouts from the government," Gingrich said on ABC's "Good Morning America."
A Quinnipiac University poll of likely Florida voters released on Monday indicated Romney has a 14-point advantage over Gingrich with broad-based support from across the Republican coalition including self-described conservatives, white evangelical Christians and supporters of the Tea Party movement.
Other polls also have shown Romney opening up a double-digit lead on Gingrich.
"If this margin holds up tomorrow, it's hard to see where Gingrich goes from here," Quinnipiac pollster Peter Brown said.
But the Gingrich campaign worked to spread the idea he was staying in the race long-term. "This race is just getting started," Martin Baker, Gingrich's national political director, said in a memo to reporters.
At least 1,114 delegates are needed to secure the Republican nomination in August. Florida is the largest state to hold a presidential primary so far this year, and 50 delegates are at stake in a winner-take-all format that will decide who faces Obama.
Baker said even a Romney win in Florida will give him just 7 percent of the delegates needed to claim the nomination. The next contest after Florida will be Nevada on Saturday, followed by Minnesota, Colorado and Missouri on February 7.
"There is a long way to go before either candidate clinches the nomination, and this campaign will continue for months," he said. "The campaign is shifting to a new phase where opportunities are not limited to a single state."
Talking to reporters on Monday, Romney noted Gingrich's growing interest in the campaign's long haul.
"That's usually an indication that you think you're gonna lose. When you say 'I'm gonna go on no matter what happens,' that's usually not a good sign," Romney said.
Gingrich said opposition to his candidacy by party insiders was a badge of honor and a sign of how threatening his candidacy was to the elite.
"They recognize I'm a genuine outsider. I know a lot about Washington having served as speaker but have none of the establishment ties and I will shake the system up. They don't want to be shaken up," he said on CBS.
Both candidates crisscrossed Florida in a final hunt for votes on Monday. The two other remaining Republican contenders, former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum and U.S. Representative Ron Paul, are looking beyond Florida to the next races in Nevada, Minnesota, Colorado and Missouri.
Gingrich was introduced at an afternoon event in Tampa by former presidential rival Herman Cain, who dropped out of the race in November after allegations of sexual harassment and marital infidelity. Cain endorsed Gingrich on Saturday.
"He's the only candidate that talks about and supports the idea of throwing out the tax code in order to get jobs going in this country. Throw it out!" Cain told the crowd.
When Gingrich took the stage, he prompted the crowd to chant "9-9-9" - Cain's frequently cited plan to reform the tax code. "You just made his entire day," Gingrich said.

Would any of them be better than Obama, of course, but that was true of Bachmann, Cain, Huntsman, Pawlenty, Perry, and all of the others who considered running and did not – our 16yr old son would be better – so that's a meaningless argument.
The fact is that Newt has a well-established history of selling-out for fame and fortune, whether dumping his wife for a younger one – more suitable to future political plans (his words) – or partnering with Dems.
Romney has Romneycare, Santorum has Arlen Spector, and Paul has "newsletter-gate" and sympathy for Iran.
Since we've only chosen 85 of the 2,000 delegates it is way to early to settle for the least-unfit of these four – we need a Conservative Voter Revolt!
Let's run these four out (the way they ran the others out) and replace them with our choice.
How about we name our own conservative ticket – something like Coburn (US Sen. OK) – West (US House, FL)?
A vote for Newt or Mitt is a vote to keep America in the unholy mess that it's in now. Give Obama the mandate to throw placating the Republicans in the garbage, and fulfill the promises that he made.
Forget Newt and Mitt, and Paul and Santorum as well, for that fact. Write in "Obama" on your primary ballots, Floridians!
@ McBob08 – How is taxing the rich and spending stoling money on the middle class going to get the economy back on track? How is that working out for Europe? Massive amounts of debt and total collapse is around the corner for those countries. Socialism is cold blooded and anti-humanitarian! Government is not the answer.

Low wattage tube bass amp
Hi Steven, its no bother at all and those are excellent questions concerning the best use and sounds of the amp. This amp would suit your needs as you described and puts out about 15 watts. This would be plenty of power for home and practice use and tube amp wattage ratings are much louder. You may be able to play with a moderately loud band too especially if you mic'd the amp through a PA system. Also, if you needed more power, I can add a line out jack to run the amp signal out to a separate power amp. I would recommend a using a solid state plug in rectifier for use with bass for sharper attack, a bit more headroom and louder volume. Tube amps are the best sounding for musical instruments in my opinion. The dynamic reproduction of your instruments true tone is what sets them apart from solid state amps. The harder and louder you play will push the tubes into natural and musical overdrive. This circuit has a more robust power supply(higher value capacitors) that would be more suitable for bass guitar and linear tone and volume pots which also seem to work well with bass. In general tube amps designed for bass are usually much larger(more output tubes which means larger transformers) and have to put out three times the wattage of a guitar amp to push the low frequencies and still have enough clean headroom before being driven to distortion/overdrive. I would recommend a closed back 2-10 or 4-10 or 1-15 cabinet with Eminence delta speakers(that is what I use personally for bass drivers) handling up to 200 watts total so it will be very efficient. You can't go wrong with Ampeg or Mesa Boogie bass cabs and they usually come stock with Eminence speakers. The total ohm speaker cab load would need to be 8 ohms to match the output transformer of this amp. Most cabs are 8 ohms. And later on if you decide to get a higher wattage amp that cab can handle it no problem. I hope this helps you and don't mind passing along the information. Take care, Tim
I hope you are having a great weekend so far. I am sorry to bother you but I really am a novice when it comes to amps. I just bought a pretty nice Jazz bass and plan on taking lessons and learning how to play. In my research for an amp I have come to the conclusion that a tube amp is the way to go. I do not plan on playing out in a band so I do not need anything big. Even though I say that, I still want to find a small unit that is capable of putting out enough sound just in case I change my mind. Could you please give my your opinion. For what it sounds like I want, do you think this amp would be a good option? Also, what kind of cab would I need to look for? Does it have to be a certain ohm? And last question…you have this listed as a guar/bass amp but not the others that you are currently selling. What makes this able to handle both interments while the others can not? I'm sorry for all the questions but I gotta do my homework. Thanks,

Drug dealer's wife Lisa Badago to pay back only £10,000 from money made in Hull heroin operation
Posted: July 09, 2014|
By Simon Bristow
THE wife of a major drug dealer who flooded the streets of Hull with heroin must pay back less than a quarter of the money she made from the operation, a judge has ruled.
Edward Badago, 35, who has been referred to in court as "The General", and six members of his cartel were jailed for a total of more than 50 years in February following convictions for a range of drugs offences.
His wife, Lisa Badago, 23, who got 12 months for two counts of money laundering, was back at Hull Crown Court yesterday for a hearing under the Proceeds of Crime Act.
Her "benefit" from the criminal enterprise was set at £43,016.38.

But as her "realisable assets" amounted to £10,723.68, that is the amount she must pay back under a confiscation order issued by Recorder Rachim Singh yesterday.
Although the money is already being held by Humberside Police, the transfer must be completed within 28 days or she could be jailed for a further six months.
Her husband, who appeared in court via a videolink from HMP Full Sutton, near Pocklington, will face a further hearing under the Act at the same court on October 10.
The gang monopolised the heroin trade in Bransholme, where it was based, and held controlling shares of the heroin supply in Orchard Park and Bilton Grange.
They were also revealed to be regional players and acted as wholesale suppliers to other dealers.
Police estimate they could have been making £1.5m a year.
The trade was said to be "continuous", and over the 231 days of the conspiracy – from April 1, 2012, to December 8, 2012, for which the ringleaders were convicted – about 38kg of heroin was sold at an average profit of about £4,000 a day.
About £924,000 profit was thought to have been made over the period.
Edward Badago was jailed for 18 years, being one of three members of his crew convicted of conspiracy to supply heroin.
He also admitted possessing 76.42g of skunk cannabis, a Class B drug, possessing 114 tablets of buprenorphine, a Class C drug, one count of concealing criminal property, and two counts of transferring criminal property.
Although Badago enjoyed the trappings of success – he had a £38,000 Rolex – he was eventually run to ground at his rural hideout, a static caravan in Routh, near Beverley.
The caravan held a treasure trove of evidence, with £67,000 in cash found in various locations, as well as quantities of drugs.

Inspired Travel: Zhangjiajie National Forest
It's hard to dream up a place like the floating Hallelujah Mountains from Avatar. Luckily, the producers and directors didn't have to look too far afield, just to China's Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. The stone peaks covered in vegetation tower high into the air – some are over 3,000 feet tall. Located in the northern part of the southeastern Hunan Province of China, the mountains are quite strikingly covered in dense vegetation due to the moist weather year-round.
The park was established in 1982 as the first national park in China. Ten years later, the park was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In 2010, China officially renamed one of the most popular peaks, Southern Sky Column, to Avatar Hallelujah Mountain.
The combination of the mountainous terrain and the moist climate creates an ideal sub-tropical climate, meaning that you can visit the park year-round with bearable temperatures even in the winter.

neworleans: July 2007 Archives
Were I still in New Orleans, tonight I'd be at a slamming jam session (the likes of which there are too few) celebrating, and raising funds for, a great New Orleans musical tradition: Satchmo Summer Jazz Camp.
For the past seven years, I've driven up to Downeast Maine for the last weekend of July to serve as volunteer-producer of the Deer Isle Jazz Festival at the Stonington Opera House. I fell into this role naturally. Erica and I happened upon this place and fell in love with the charming coves, the pink-and-blue sunsets, the unparalleled lobster, the chilly nights, the warm unassuming atmosphere, and the creativity that seemed to bubble up everywhere we went. One afternoon, we made a left turn and right in front of us stood a once-grand then-decrepit opera house. "Hey, let's quit our jobs," I said dreamily (I had one at the time), "buy this place, fix it up, and turn it into a nonprofit arts center!'
We didn't, but a group of enterprising women did. (You can read more about them and their Opera House Arts here.) Soon, we got to talking: Let's bring jazz musicians up here, create a festival that celebrates not just music but improvisation and its connections to creativity of all types, someone said. Before long, saxophonist Dewey Redman was onstage, opening the inaugural event. Matt Wilson, then his drummer, played a separate set: a forty-minute duet with slide guitarist David Tronzo. Tronzo meanwhile, had spent two weeks at the Haystack Mountain School of Crafts (in a festival-related residency): a glassblower had created a series of custom slides that Tronzo used in performance. At one point in the set, Tronzo coaxed tiny squeals from his guitar by rubbing a plastic up against his strings, coaxed along by Wilson's skittering beat. The audience stuck with it, dug it: I knew we were on to something. Since then, the 250-seat former vaudeville house has played host to Brazilian singer Luciana Souza in duets with guitarist Romero Lubambo and pianist Fred Hersch; saxophonist Greg Osby's quartet with pianist Jason Moran; my own favorite male jazz vocalist, Andy Bey; French horn player Vincent Chauncey; free-jazz hero bassist William Parker; and 80-year-old master pianist Randy Weston.

This plant is called "makahiya"; in Tagalog, 'hiya' means shy.
Upon being touched, this plant's leaves immediately fold up together as if the plant is shy (hence its name).

needle felted Journey characters
These two adorable needlefelt Journey characters were made in conjunction with one another, by a pair of crafters. Katie made the red one first, then Tim made the white one because the red one looked lonely. Now neither they nor you need be lonely at all, since you will all have each other as travelling companions. Inspired by trudging through the desert and facing insurmountable challenges head on as intrepid heroes, these stalwart comrades are intent on reaching one and only one goal - the happiness of children everywhere.
The figures are roughly 2 inches across, and 4-5 inches tall (the white figure has a height advantage over the red one).
Katie is an art major who mainly works with metal smithing, but also draws and needle felts. She enjoys creating pieces that contrast organic shapes with mechanical influences, and trying new mediums in bold and interesting ways.
Tim is a wildlife major who plays (he says) too many videogames. We think maybe it's actually just the right amount.
Materials: Felt.

It's tough to drive a truck down a ballroom staircase, so the Urban Suburban can't have one of those dramatic entrances like Extreme Makeover participants do on TV. But, the before and after shots of the '47 Chevy panel truck are as dramatic as any face-lifted, breast-augmented, tummy-tucked, teeth-capped, middle-aged homemaker from suburbia on one of those reality makeover shows.
If you parked the "before" truck next to the finished phantom Suburban, about the only obvious connection is that they're both classic Chevy trucks. Much of the original truck is gone, including the chassis, engine, transmission, rearend, interior, rear doors, and a good chunk of the roof.
Like so many classic truck projects, this one started out simple and grew in complexity with each new modification. Ray Doe who runs RB's Obsolete Automotive, Inc., has built several '47-55 Chevy trucks. The last one, known as the High Tech Hauler, was the Grand Prize in a CLASSIC TRUCKS and Street Rodder subscription promotion. Ray really liked that truck, but ethics, a sense of fair play, and all the legal fine print about employees not being eligible to enter the sweepstakes prevented that beautiful truck from remaining in his garage.
So, Ray set out to build a truck for himself. He had his heart set on a classic Suburban, but ran across a super cherry '47 Chevy Panel. The business rationale behind the project was to build a truck to showcase RB's Serious Hardware new rolling chassis for '47-55 (first series) trucks. Rather than passing on the panel, Ray changed his plans.
Plan A was to leave the older restoration body and interior alone and just drop it on the new chassis with modern running gear. That plan lasted as long as it took for Alan Swedberg to agree to chop the top and turn the panel into a phantom Suburban. The doors were converted to hardtop style with Nomad-style slanted B- pillars. A Trailblazer/Bravada rear hatch/tailgate replaced the old "barn doors." Late-model Corvette taillights were added, the hood halves were welded together, the splash pans were shortened, the factory vents were filled, and custom running boards were added.
All that radical bodywork didn't look very good in primer; so Chris Odom applied gallons of stunning House of Kolor Shimrin Tangelo Pearl and Majik Blue Pearl. Mike LaVallee helped dress it up even more with the rip flames graphics.
While the bodywork and paint were in progress, Gary, Shawn, and Terry at Kimbridge Enterprises in Snohomish, Washington, were very busy handling the design, fabrication, and assembly of the new rolling chassis. The chassis was designed expressly for modified trucks. The framerails are tucked in 2 inches (per side) behind the cab so big wheels and tires would fit easily. To prove the point, Billet Specialties 20x10-inch SLX 01 were mounted on Nitto tires out back, while 18x8.5-inchers were mounted up front.
The IFS comes with power 11-inch disc brakes, but Ray decided to upgrade to even bigger discs and had Stainless Steel Brake Corporation Force 10 Extreme Duty 13-inch rotors installed along with 14-inch discs on the rear.
Given the extreme nature of this makeover, it isn't the least bit surprising that Ray opted for a stump-pulling 496ci Max Velocity Plus big-block from Beck Racing Engines. The engine puts out 564 hp and 563 ft-lb of torque on 91-octane gas. A heavy-duty B&M transmission sits between the engine and the 9-inch Ford rearend.
A trick exterior demands an equally slick interior. Blue leather front buckets and a split-bench rear seat from Wise Guys Seating & Accessories replaced the original metal-backed bucket seats. A custom console, door panels, and headliner were fabricated and sewn by Ray's close friend, Jim Carr. Much of the detail assembly work was performed in Jim's immaculate home garage. The orange tweed inserts mirror the rip graphics on the paint.
The Urban Suburban is an extreme truck that has proven to be extremely popular. It has provided Ray with not only some great transportation, but a test-bed and rolling advertisement for many of the products from the RB's Obsolete mail-order catalog. The best part is that Ray will actually get to keep this one.

Introducing the
2014 Jeep
Going further is now attainable in the 2014 Jeep Compass in San Antonio TX. This stylish blend of power, capability, and beauty shows exactly what Jeep performance is all about. A bold new appearance and thirst for adventure make the Compass more well-equipped than ever before. Capable of doing more while wasting less, the SUV is an intuitive auto that allows San Antonio drivers to take the road less traveled with more confidence and performance capability.
2014 Jeep Compass in San Antonio TX
The boldly redesigned 2014 Jeep Compass in San Antonio is the perfect balance between style and function. Detail oriented, the Compass is dressed in chrome accents throughout the vehicle. A sleeker appearance is possible through available body-color mirrors, but there is no doubt that this vehicle emulates true Jeep ruggedness. Another new element found on the Compass is bi-halogen projector headlights. Nearly two times brighter than its predecessor's, the all-new Compass' high beams can help drivers see even in the darkest of nights. With more character and innovation design, the 2014 Jeep Compass in San Antonio is an automotive force whether in the city or off the road.
Efficient New Jeep in San Antonio TX
Stacked with the 2.0-liter World Engine, the 2014 Jeep Compass in San Antonio now has more to offer. With a driving range of over 400 miles, the Compass can make the most of a single tank of gas while delivering up to 30 hwy mpg. New possibilities are endless when a driver has both efficiency and power at their fingertips. 158 horsepower and 141 lb-ft of torque give the Compass the extra guts it needs to tackle any terrain, driving condition, or day-to-day task. Easily adaptable, the SUV can master any environment from snow to mud or sand to rock. True to form, this Jeep knows no fear and has the performance capability to go as far as its driver dares. A trustworthy design and a "go anywhere" attitude makes the 2014 Jeep Compass in San Antonio an inspiring vehicle that pushes drivers to take more chances.
Inside the Jeep Compass in San Antonio
Never has the Compass been this smartly designed. Outfitted with a luxurious interior, the Compass is decked out in modern fabrics and detailing like premium seat stitching and soft-touch materials. Chrome accents highlight the interior's greatest assets and a bold "Compass" applique ensures that no one will mistake the SUV for anything else. Thoughtfully executed, the 2014 Jeep Compass in San Antonio has more to share for the design-oriented visual enthusiast. A leather-wrapped steering wheel, broad power sunroof, and spacious interior show that the Compass is more than a pretty face. Each element found within the Compass is deliberate and functional.
All-Inclusive Detailing
Traveling in style is made possible with the 2014 Jeep Compass in San Antonio. From the ground up it is obvious how much thought and care went into the SUV's overall design. Even the tires have a recognizable boldness at 18 inches. Painted in pocket cast-aluminum, the wheel round out the sturdiness and balance found throughout the Compass. Responsive and agile, the SUV takes on any challenge with grace and confidence. Six advanced airbags, specially-engineered crush zones, and ultra-high strength steel protect passengers from any hazardous elements. An available ParkView Back Up Camera assists in backing, Hill Start Assist protects during steep inclines, and over 30 available safety features show that the Compass covers all of its bases so the driver can embark on each journey with peace of mind.

Anonymous: how do i do my make up when wearing a bright coral ish blouse?
Id go with a more natural bronze look. Contour your cheekbones with some nice bronzer and maybe a subtle blush to make you look more energized and alive. Thin black eyeliner on the top lash line and some medium brown eye shadow in the hollows/crease and a few coats of mascara. I always use too much mascara!

Cristina, on the other hand, expected something very different out of love. She had reluctantly accepted suffering as an inevitable component of deep passion, and was resigned to putting her feelings at risk. If you asked her what it was she was gambling her emotions on to win, she would not have been able to say. She knew what she didn't want, however, and that was exactly what Vicky valued above all else.

Why is it so unheard of for someone to like both Katy Perry AND Lady Gaga? Like oh my god seriously their fans just ugh shut up they're both amazing and talented and gorgeous just stfu and stop tearing at each others throats. honestly nobody has any right to criticize any of the artists out there. (YEAH, BIEBER HATERS. THAT INCLUDES YOU.) none of us nobodies are in a position to rag on anyone with talent for anything having to do with their artistic license.
i'm tired. i'm going to shut up and go to bed now before i cough up a lung.
Saw a few things regarding this matter floating around, and since this is my wordyblog and I've got some experience on the matter, I figured I'd pipe up because OPINIONS.
It's happened to me before where I'm streaming, or where I post something, and I get someone messaging me saying something…
I also kind of dislike it when people say they're jealous of my style or skills. I don't want people to be jealous. I'm a really jealous person, I get jealous over the smallest things, and it's not fun at all. Allthough it's good to have a little bit of jealousy, which will challenge you to think "that person is great, I wanna draw like them or even better than them". But it's not good if jealousy makes you feel discouraged or bad.
The best compliments I've recieved are the ones that say seeing my drawings have made them grab the pen again and made them draw, that I've inspired them and made them want to improve. That's really something.
I get comments like "oh my god i wish i was as good as you" sometimes on dA (Despite the fact that there are far better artists out there lol.) and I'm like, Dude… This is like 11 years' worth of me figuring out my own style and studying anatomical structures and doing everything I can to make each drawing better than the last. This didn't happen overnight.
Those kind of comments just rub me the wrong way, I guess. The statement of "I'm not as talented as you but I'm not going to elaborate."
Now, something more along the lines of "I wish I was as good as you. How did you get so good?" or "Lol what's your secret? :P" or "How do you get X to look so not-funky?" would be far more acceptable, IMO. Because that shows a desire to learn, and that's one of the things that I love seeing. In a perfect world, those question-asking people would go on to be even better artists than I am. c:

Exeter Documents
From Rpalmer
This page will be segmented when it gets too long. Add information by clicking on "edit" above. Items should begin with term (if available) and year together with a letter to allow for distinguishing subsequent documents in the same year and term. The designation should be in bold. Thus an entry will appear as H1285 A:. Text thereafter should indicate what the document concerns. The link to the document should be a copied and pasted full web address (http:// . . .) surrounded by single brackets ( [ ] ). Leave a line between entries. The 25-year segments begin with a vertical bar and end with a vertical bar minus. Avoid other more complex codes. If you want to append a translation, provide a completely unique address surrounded by double brackets: Dartmouth Docs H1275 A Tr. Such an address indicates sector and year, the A indicates it is the first document entered for that year and term, the Tr indicates it is a translation. That will constitute a unique address. DO NOT attempt to re-order documents within a term to achieve a perfect chronology, since it will invalidate other references to re-named documents. A document written in Notepad will copy into the site without any complicating code. Avoid more complicated coding. Check your entry before saving by clicking on "show preview below (return here by using the back arrow); before leaving the document, remember to save the page.

– Same play (2nd and 4 on Jags 32)…..as I eluded to in the previous pic and as you can clearly see, Henne is sitting very comfortably in the pocket just allowing Shipley time to beat his man AGAIN and get open across the middle. A easy point and shoot for Henne that picks up 8 yards on the play.

My grandfather said that a tornado took it down. 1953. My grandfather also said that he has speakers from that drive in sitting on the post outside his house. He brought them home to fix them, but he forgot about them and they have been there since. I asked him about this theater, but that is all the info he remembers so far. He worked for R&R, and he said it became Concho theaters before it was Rowley United. Any info on that?

84 percent of new boat buyers had read or seen boat information online prior to making their purchase decision
What influences you the most when looking to buy a boat? According to a recent study from Foresight Research, 84% of new boat buyers are turning to online sources to find out more information on what type of boat they should buy.
Foresight announced these findings from its 2010 Boating Industry Internet & Social Media Influence Report.
The report was commissioned by marine industry organizations led by the National Marine Manufacturers Association. The study surveyed 3,295 people across the country who purchased a new boat during an 18-month period that ended last August.
"What we are seeing is the profound effect of peer-to-peer communication on social networking sites, which will have an increasingly dramatic influence on boat purchase decision making," Ron Hein, executive vice president of Foresight, said in a statement.
Studies showed that buyers of ski boats and cruisers were significantly more likely to use social media than aluminum fishing boat and personal watercraft buyers. Among buyers under the age of 35, nearly one in three (29 percent) used social media to discuss their pending boat purchase.
"What's also interesting is that buyers influenced by social media also report higher influence from virtually every communication channel. They are highly influenced by a total of 6.4 communication channels, versus 4.0 for the average boat buyer," he added. "This suggests that social media is not replacing other forms of communications, but is instead an additional source and may be encouraging buyers who use this medium to seek additional information while shopping."
Each of these reasons and many others show us the increased influence that the internet has on buying new/used boats.

the community and on the use of local community and nongovernmental organizations (166-14-PCNGO; 934-10-PCGOV; 272-32/35-PCNGO; 935-19-PCGOV; 240-15-USG). In addition, many programs are implemented using community volunteers or community health workers, many of whom are also PLHIV. These workers provide such services as case management; adherence monitoring and counseling; personal care; palliative care; pain assessment; nutritional assessment; assistance in navigating health services; and referrals to help lines, health facilities, and other program linkages, including to facilities known to be 'friendly' to high-risk targeted populations (272-7-USG; 272-32/35-PCNGO; 166-23-USG; 396-31-PCGOV; 461-13-USACA; 240-15-USG; 240-2-USG; 272-18-PCNGO; 331-14-USG; 331-16-USG). In an example in one partner country, a restructuring was taking place to shift to community care provided by a cadre of workers with the capacity to do ART management and counseling (272-7-USG). In another example, an NGO partner provided traditional healers and community authorities with education about HIV and associated diseases since these individuals played an integral role in community health care; this was described as an important approach because a large proportion of the population used traditional healers for care (331-19-USNGO).
Linkages Between Home- and Community-Based Care and Facility-Based Care
One of PEPFAR's aims for care and support activities has been to support the implementation of different approaches to link facility-based care services with community- and home-based care services. Several interviewees described home-based care programs that emphasized promoting linkages between home-based care and HIV care and treatment clinics, health facilities, and providers who can make appropriate referrals (272-32/35-PCNGO; 331-10-PCGOV; 396-25-PCGOV; 166-23-USG). In other cases, programs for home-based care or home visits for adherence support and reducing loss to follow-up are based out of outpatient facilities or other care and treatment programs and are therefore directly linked to patients enrolled in clinical care and treatment (935-15-ONGO; 935-25-PCGOV; 396-29-PCGOV; 396-21-USG; 240-19-USACA; 240-25-PCGOV). There were also a few examples involving children and adolescents in which community and nonclinical services were linked with clinical services in health facilities, such as age-specific clubs for children in HIV care and treatment clinics; youth-friendly services for HIV-positive youth that include support groups; education, and programs for youth in school and those not in school; and community workers who focus on helping children stay in treatment (636-17-PCGOV; 935-13-PCGOV; 272-14-PCNGO). (See Chapter 7 for a further discussion of services for children and adolescents.)

Anonymous said: How many spankophiles are there in the world? Are we many?
It's hard to say exactly how many of us there are. But you'd be surprised how many there are. We are numerous. And a lot of articles online claim that a good chunk of people (it was something close to 30% in the lesbian community) who have enjoyed being spanked or spanking someone else during sex and even more who were curious to try. Really, we are a lot more common than we'd expect.
Wow it's been a while. Happy Holidays, everybody, whatever it is that you may celebrate.
So, I don't really know where to begin, it's been so long since I've posted on here. But I feel like it's time. To be honest, I haven't thought a lot lately about my identity as a spanko, aside from the fact that either I've been avoiding it or just don't feel the need for it to be so huge a part of my identity anymore. Before, when I was still figuring things out, I felt the need to really own it and make it a big part of me (which was fine at the time because it was only through that that I came to really accept it).
It's funny now though because I still of course have all the same fantasies and everything, but I don't feel as much this pressure to tell people about it or use some label like "spanko" to define myself. I've come to realize more that everyone has their own kink and it's just a little part of who they are. For some people, they feel more like it defines them, before they realize they aren't so weird after all. I've just met so many people who enjoy spanking or being spanked, even if it wasn't a fetish since such a young age, as it was for me, that I don't see a need in worrying so much about it.
When it comes to finding a partner who likes it too, it's just like any aspect of sexual chemistry, either it's there or it's not, either the person is interested in doing things you like in bed or their not and it's nothing to worry about, it's just a game of numbers and eventually it will all work out. Like, for example, I just hooked up with a friend I had known since high school and it was some of the best sex I've ever had (not to mention she was totally cool with giving me a few smacks on the ass and didn't mind me doing the same), but it wasn't forced at all, it just worked out like that.
I'm learning more and more that trust is a magical magical concept. Trust that it will all work out, that you're not alone, that people will be more understanding than you think and even if not, you'll eventually find people who are.
I'm still a little upset I never really got going on this play that I was going to write, but maybe I still need to learn more and have more life experience and in time it will be time for me to write it. Again, trusting in the process.
Anonymous said: How to be subconsciously healthy and do constructive consensual psychological BDSM? How can these things be not conflicted with your core values? What is the psychology behind BDSM and I mean mostly psychological?
There hasn't been enough serious psychological research about BDSM, much less specifically for those who identify as spankophiles. So I can't really answer that question until then. However, it is definitely not caused by trauma, it's completely natural, and a lot of people, even if they don't admit to it, fantasize in some way that could be considered under the BDSM umbrella.
When it comes to being healthy and engaging in consensual BDSM, you have to make sure you trust the person you're with, set up rules, have a safeword, make sure to communicate, and only go as far as you're comfortable.
This doesn't conflict with my values because I believe that everyone has the right as an self-respecting individual not to repress their sexual desires (thus repressing themselves) and that we all should fully explore them no matter how "weird" they may seem to the mainstream.
First of all, I just want to apologize for not having posted in months. I've been busy. But here goes.
I recently met a girl in a bar, hit it off with her and we've been seeing each other for about a month now. However, I do know that she would be weirded out if I talked to her about being into spanking. The second time we went out together we ended up at this lesbian bar with a themed SM night. I actually didn't know they were doing that—it was just a bar I'd been going to for a while, and we went for the cheap drinks. Then we noticed that there were to be bondage and whipping demonstrations on the little makeshift stage at the back of the bar. She instantly started making comments about how "weird" it all was and that we wasn't a "violent" person. It was awkward for me, because I would be lying if I agreed with her, so I just laughed and teased her and smiled and eventually said "it isn't necessary to judge them," to which she gave me a surprised look, but was also caught off guard by herself, realizing her own judgment and said "I'm not judging…it's just not for me…" Pause. "Why did you say that?" As if she was expecting me to say that I was into that kind of stuff. I just laughed and said "Nothing." We dropped the subject for a while and went to another bar.
At this new bar, she managed to bring up the subject again. Same old comments—it's weird, "I was surprised," "I wasn't expecting that." What kept bothering me was how big of a deal she was making about something that didn't even concern her… Eventually I felt myself getting angry and had to say something or else I would be acting the role of someone else. So I said, "The thing is, I'm just very interested in sexuality, and I actually wrote a paper last semester on S/M and it's ability to break the queer community out of sexual "normality" as defined by heterosexual relations, but also it's restrictions and ability to reconstruct certain gender roles." She instantly responded "If you want someone like that, I'm sorry but it's not me." This was the most awkward part, because what am I going to do, tell her my deepest sexual desires and the fact that I'm not into all of S/M, just one specific part of it and the fact that I don't absolutely need her to be that for me right in the middle of a crowded bar in public? No. So I just said, "No, I don't need someone like that, it's just interesting from a intellectual point of view." Which wasn't a full lie. Wasn't the full truth either, but I did what I could.
Then, when we were back at my place, in my bed, she brought it up AGAIN. I just couldn't even respond at this point. Why was she so bothered by it?
I don't think this relationship is going to last very long, for other reasons, so I don't feel it's necessary to come clean about this side of my sexuality to this girl. It's just not worth it, and I know she wouldn't be okay with it. So I'm just going to have a good time and whatever. This kind of stuff just gets frustrating. And awkward. And it's really hard to be 100% yourself.
Anyone else had a similar experience?
Hi, I live in an arab muslim country UAE, people here have freak thoughts towards sadism and masochism… they believe we are sick or something, how do u think its possible to know if a friend is a sadist? and how can i convince her to dominate me? can you please provide some advise im really desperate…
Hi, I'm really sorry to hear that it's so hard for you where you live. It honestly isn't all that much better here in the US for the most part, but there are people like you out there, I'm sure even in your own country, though they are probably in hiding, as I assume you might be. There is no surefire way of knowing if someone is into S/M without asking them or just getting into a situation where it comes up, but I think the internet is a pretty decent route of finding people like yourself. Just be wary of people who might not be who they say they are or could possibly take advantage of you in some way. If you have any more questions please don't hesitate to ask. I know what it feels like to feel alone about this.
Anonymous said: you're inspiring. really. I think what you're doing is amazing, and really necessary. major kudos.
Thank you so much. I do this all for you guys.
Anonymous said: I'm into spanking but I'm also asexual. Spanking and sex don't go hand in hand for me... I don't know if that makes sense. How is that accepted by spankos?
Everyone's different. I think within the spanko community people recognize that not everyone who is into spanking necessarily sees it as a sexual thing. I get turned on by just thinking about it personally, but some people just have the need or interest in it without it being tied to sex in that way.

Aw, thanks :). Me too!
Hey guys! I hope you can forgive me for not posting in several months (someone's been bad ;-)). I've just been super busy lately. Summer internship, work, applying for a visa to study abroad next year, yada yada yada. Anyway, this summer has proved to be quite incredible.
Not only have I been keeping busy doing what I love, theatre, (I'm interning with a theatre company over the summer), but I've met some really awesome people in the process, who just happen to enjoy spankings as much as I do. Who woulda thought?
It's funny how just becoming confident and comfortable in your own sexual desires can seem to bring this stuff into your life so quickly. I was so closed off and scared of people's reactions to what I really desired about two years ago, and now, I just feel like, SO many people like it too, I don't even really have to ask anymore… Maybe I'm just lucky or something, but I really think it just has to do with that level of self-confidence that people pick up on.
I've also started to notice just how playful and silly being a kinky person can be. There is so much imagination and creativity that goes into it, particularly when it comes to any kind of role-play, or even without. Perhaps my love of the theatre and this part of my sexuality are very much tied. Who knows. All I know is I'm having a great time. Life is good.

The Buffalo Bills shocked the football word when they drafted EJ Manuel in the first round instead of Geno Smith, who at one point in time was a favorite for the first overall pick. But Manuel isn't expecting a rough transition, the offense the Bills run is easier for him to learn than the FSU offense he ran. In fact he told Sirius XM NFL Radio on Saturday that he has it figured out already.
"The funny thing is it's easier to learn than the offense I had at Florida State," Manuel said, via ESPN.com. "It's a true West Coast-type progression offense. That's really what I wanted when I was coming through the pre-draft process. I wanted something that I could just go in and say 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, check it down and run it. That's it, it's that simple. I love it. . . .
"The learning curve for me is a lot shorter simply because of what I had at Florida State. [The Seminoles' offense is] more complex and a little bit harder to catch on and learn. This offense is very simple. I've done a great job with it."
Simpler does not mean less effective. Simpler in fact could mean better. If EJ Manuel is that confident in the offense and his understanding of it that could mean the Buffalo Bills are in for a quick turn around like what the Seattle Seahawks experienced with Russell Wilson and the Washington Redskins with Robert Griffin III.
