Super-Size Me
It's Product Review Friday again and I have a unique presentation for you today. Many months ago our friends at sex toy.com sent me a penis enlargement kit called Andro Penis and asked me to review it. This would certainly be a daunting task because it would take at several months of devoted use to effectively test this product. I would also have to find a willing Dr Dick Review Crew member to join me in this effort.
I put out an SOS message to all the men on the Review Crew asking for volunteers. I explained the extraordinary commitment this review would take. And asked if there might be at least one Review Crew member stalwart enough to subject himself and his cock to at least sixteen weeks of traction in the Andro Penis. You see, this instrument is placed over the penis and worn for four or nine hours a day for four to six months.
Not surprisingly, I got only one positive reply from my inquiry. Dr Dick Review Crew member, Carlos, said he'd be up to the task; all in the name of science and possibly a bigger dick.
Andro Penis —— $203.06
Dr Dick & Carlos
Dr Dick: "Before Carlos and I begin our discussion, I want to direct your attention to three postings I've made concerning penis enlargement. Historical Views On Cock Size, First Penis Enlargement Methods and Devices and Pumps and Pumps Effects On Penis Size. These three articles will hopefully put today's discussion in context."
Carlos: "Yeah, Dr Dick asked me to read through all these columns before I accepted his invitation to join him in reviewing the Andro Penis. I think I should also mention that every since I was a teenager I've been embarrassed about the size of my cock. People tell me that I have nothing to be ashamed about, that my cock is average sized, but that never seemed to make my desire for a bigger penis go away."
Dr Dick: "Yes, I'm afraid it's precisely men like Carlos, here, that often fall prey to the unscrupulous people who market dubious enlargement devices, pills and creams."
Carlos: "Yep, that would be me. I've been gullible enough to plunk down hard-earned money on a half-dozen enlargement schemes. All have been a disappointment. I guess that's why I volunteered for this project. I knew it wouldn't cost me any money, and there was the chance that the Andro Penis, what with all the medical jargon on their site, might actually work."
Dr Dick: "Indeed, the Andro Penis website is loaded with scientific studies touting its efficacy. There's even a page on their site filled with doctors and their endorsements of the product. Yet, upon closer inspection, the physician statements are mostly generic. Each speaks of tissue expansion by way of stretching, or in this case, traction."
Carlos: "I already know about this because I've been stretching my earlobes for a couple of years."
Dr Dick: "That's right! People have been stretching body parts as a means of adornment for just about as long as we've had body parts to stretch."
Carlos: "The Andro Penis is a medical looking apparatus that uses traction to stretch your penis. Ya have to wear on your dick for hours on end, every day, for up to six months. I promised Dr Dick that I would be able to handle this kind of commitment and that I was motivated to give this a try. The enlargement kit comes in a handsome case, which contains the stretching device, loads of extra parts, an instructional DVD, and booklet with written instructions in 27 languages. The booklet also helps you track your progress."
Dr Dick: "Once I was confident Carlos understood the commitment I turned over the kit and sent him on his way. I told him that I wanted to hear from him at least once a month for an update."
Carlos: "Ok, so you should know that the Andro Penis is pretty simple to attach to your cock. There's a ring that fits down around the base of your cock with two metal rods attached to it on either side. These two metal rods attach to another part where your dick-head fits into this kind of noose. And then you just tighten it till there's the desired tension. I know it sounds super uncomfortable, but it wasn't that bad. At least it wasn't at first. And then every seven days you attach these little extenders to the end of each of the metal rods. This is what causes your dick to stretch. The longer you wear the thing and the more extenders you use is supposed to determine how big your unit will get. The kit recommended that I wear the device for nine hours a day. That's a lot! You can take breaks, if you need to, but the whole idea is to keep up the traction for a total of six months."
Dr Dick: "That's precisely the thing I wanted Carlos to report to me about. Would he be able to sustain that kind of commitment and endure that kind of discomfort just to grow his dick bigger?"
Carlos: "Actually, it wasn't all that uncomfortable to start with, but it does feel really weird. Like any novelty, I was gung ho for the first few weeks. I mostly wore the Andro Penis in the evening and at night. I couldn't wear it during the day at work, that's for certain. It creates this very unsightly bulge in your pants. So I was sure I would never go out of the house with it on. Of course, just wearing it in the evening didn't allow for the proper amount of wearing time. I had to start wearing it while I slept. My wife didn't like this at all!"
Dr Dick: "I was pretty certain that finding the required number of hours a day, every day, would be a super challenge. And as Carlos suggests, the Andro Penis will no doubt get in the way of a relationship."
Carlos: "True! And then there's the issue of taking a piss. You have to free your cock from the contraption every time you need to pee. And don't even think about gettin a boner with this thing in place. By the second month I was dreading my daily dick straightjacket. I began to resent having to abuse my cock like this. I cursed myself for not loving the beautiful cock God gave me. To be honest, there was a slight noticeable increase in length, but not in girth. But not so much that made wearing the Andro Penis worth it."
Dr Dick: "That's pretty much what I thought would happen. When Carlos reported in at the beginning of the third month I could tell he was over it. I asked him if he wanted to continue the experiment."
Carlos: "I told him NO! I felt like I was letting Dr Dick down. I made a promise to wear the Andro Penis for four months, but I could barely get past two months. Every day I would find a new excuse to either not wear the thing or wear it for a shorter period than I was supposed to. I suppose if you're serious about enlarging your cock, more serious than I was at the beginning, and you have the stamina for this kind of regiment; then you might dig the Andro Penis. Like I said, I started out with the best of intentions, but I soon developed an intense animosity toward the device. It was a lot more invasive than I ever thought it would be. It was like carrying around a ball and chain."

All that glitters
Hey sex fans!
It's the black Friday edition of Product Review Friday! And we turn again to Zini for today's pleasure product. I believe this marks our seventh review from their line. You are following these reviews, right? If not, I suggest that you do. You can find all our reviews by going to drdicksextoyreviews.com, use the search function in the sidebar and type in "Zini."
Today we have a vibe designed for women. Here is Dr Dick Review Crew member, Christa, for the lowdown.
Zini ROAE —— $135.99
I loves me some high-end sex toys. They always make me feel so elegant, and that's a pretty hard thing to do because I ain't elegant at all. In fact, I'm kind of a schlub. Don't get me wrong, just because a vibe is expensive doesn't make it good. I've learned that the hard way.
I know you've seen the stuff I'm talking about; stuff that comes in gussied up packaging with fancy-schmancy logos. Stuff that looks so promising, but turns out to be a big fat dud. I hate when that happens. My time on the Dr Dick Review crew has helped me become a little less dazzled with the externals, like packaging and shit like that, and withhold judgment till I get my hot little hands on the thing and put it through its paces. Because, like they say, not everything that glitters is gold.
This gets me to my Zini ROAE, which, curiously enough, is black and gold. BTW, it comes in other color combinations too. Now when I see a vibe doin' the whole gold thing, I say to my self, "Whoa! Are you trying to dazzle me? 'Cuz if you are, I'm way ahead of you, buddy."
So what is the ROAE, you may be asking. Well I'll tell ya. It is indeed an attractive internal/external vibe, a highly stylized rabbit design if you will, that is supposed to stimulates your G-spot and clit at the same time. It has dual motors and it is covered in luxurious latex-free, nonporous, phthalate-free, and hypoallergenic silicone. It is beautiful to the touch. It's also rechargeable, via a USB cable, which is the only way to go nowadays. If you're still buying battery-operated toys, I don't even know what to say to you, except GET WITH IT!
I was sad to learn that the ROAE is not waterproof. That's a bummer. I expect all high-end vibes to be waterproof, don't you?. This spashproof nonsense has got to stop, if ya ask me.
Here's the thing about the ROAE; it's a really great design, but it seems like the designers just blew off the recharge port cover. It's made of this really flimsy plastic that could easily snap off. Had they made it so the port cover was sturdier and created a watertight seal, like their SEED vibe, all would be well. I mean, why in the world would a company go to all the expense of making something as good as ROAE, but skimp in this very important detail? It's beyond me.
Anyone who has used one of these internal/external vibes, and there are dozens and dozens of them out there, will know that one size does not fit all. All of us gals have a slightly different genital configuration. Sure everything is in approximately the same place—clit is here, G-spot there—but our uniqueness will either make of break a vibe design for each of us. What works for you may not work for me. I gave up hope long ago that I would ever find precisely the right configuration of an internal/external design to pleasure both my G-spot and clit at the same time. I guess I'm just built weird. But that doesn't diminish the effectiveness of the ROAE. I don't mind rocking it back and forth—a little G-spot stimulation, then some more clit stimulation. To tell you the truth, I'm not all that enamored with my G-spot. For me it's all about my clit. When I jill-off I rarely insert anything into my vagina. I don't use the ROAE, or any such vibe, internally, even if the designer says that's how it's supposed to be used. I'll be the judge of that, if ya don't mind. The tip of the ROAE is real good for clit stimulation too and it provides a different sensation than the flat head pad, at the other end of the vibe, the side that is "supposed" to be the clit stimulator.
The ROAE delivers a kind of diffuse stimulation, even at its most intense. I chalk this up to the silicone skin. I suspect it mutes a lot of the vibrations. This isn't a bad thing, especially for women new to vibration. But if you are one of those gals that needs a vibrator that is so intense you need to kick-start it, this vibe will disappoint. The ROAE is remarkably quiet too.
I like the three-button control panel, which is easy to use and understand. The "+" button turns on the vibe and accelerates the speed through its five speeds. The "-" button decelerates the speed and turns off the vibe. The round button between the other two rotates through the 15 pulsation modes.
Remember only water-based lube with a velvety silicone toy like this.
Now to the issue of clean up. Because the ROAE isn't waterproof you can't clean it as well as you might like. Submerging a toy for deep cleaning is optimum, but there's no submerging this guy. There is an obvious seam between the gold plastic in the handle and the silicone skin. I discovered that I needed to use an old toothbrush, along with the warm water and mild soap, to make sure this area is clean. The owner's manual says you can't use chemical or alcohol-based cleaners on it. WHAT? I don't know why this is so because every other silicone toy I know of doesn't exclude these types of cleaners. Whatever, this pretty much eliminates the possibility of sanitizing it for sharing. That's another huge bummer because my butt-boy BF, Alex, sure enough wanted to use this toy in his ass. He reminded me that all G-spot vibes also work on P-spots. "Yeah, Alex, I know. You tell me that every time I get a G-spot vibe to review. I may just wind up giving it to him and forgo using it ever again myself. ;-(
I want to call attention to the packaging; it's signature Zini all the way. It's elegant without being ostentatious and it's recyclable.
I was torn about a recommendation. On the one hand, the ROAE has a beautiful stylistic design; it's made of silicone, and it's rechargeable. On the other hand, there is the spashproof, not waterproof, issue, which has implications in terms of cleaning and sanitizing. For the longest time I struggled with this. I had to ask myself, could I wholeheartedly recommend a super pricy vibe that has such glaring problems? In the end, the answer was, sadly no.
Full Review HERE!
Holier Than Thou
Name: Jean
Age: 36
Location: New Haven, CT
I've been with the same man for 14 years. We both decided to become Christians about a year ago. Now he's not interested in sharing the same bed and not interested in having sex with me. It tried to overlook this hoping it was some kind of phase, but it goes on and on and he still doesn't want sex. He's the only man that could ever satisfy me sexually. I dated a few guys, four to be exact, before we met. I still love this guy but he won't acknowledge my feelings. I feel like I'm losing everything, my best friend, my partner, my lover …and my sanity. I'm happy we're still together, but I'm frustrated to the point of exhaustion without my sex life. Any ideas what I could do to turn this around?
What an unhappy tale of woe you have you have to tell, Jean. The Christian conversion thing didn't quite work out like ya thought, huh? Well maybe it has less to do with Christianity per se, and more to do with the Joe who converted with you.
I've heard similar complaints from other people whose partners have decided, unilaterally, to make a radical life-change for themselves. Often these new zealots fail to appreciate how their life altering decisions impact on the wellbeing of those around them. And because they are so damn single-minded about their new passion — as every zealot is, there is rarely any talking to them.
Two former clients come to mind. First, there was George, a gay man in a 10-year relationship with this other really sweet guy, Robert. Eight years into the relationship Robert had a heart attack. Despite a full recovery and living a much healthier lifestyle after the hear attack, Robert got it in his head that if he were to have sex again, it would kill him. There was no reasoning with him. No sex ever again, period. This otherwise blessed relationship ended painfully. Pity that!
Another client, Melissa, discovered long-distance running two years into her marriage to Allen. She became like a woman possessed. Running consumed her. Her career, her friends and family, her social life all suffered. But no one took the brunt of her newfound craze more than her husband. At first sex was out of the question because there was no time. Then all that body-punishing running radically changed her entire metabolism. She even stopped menstruating. Her libido virtually expired. Even the imminent demise of her relationship didn't alter her running routine. So basically Melissa just ran away from her marriage. Simple as all that!
In your case, Jean, your partner appears to have bought into the some of the worst sex-negative messages of Christianity. I suspect that there's no turning this around and, unless you wish to continue to sacrifice your sexuality on this unworthy altar, I'd suggest you make peace with the fact that life will never return to how it once was.
And what's all this about he being the only man who could satisfy you? You've had only 4 other partners, for christ sake! And most if not all were crummy lovers, right? Are you the kind of gal that quits shopping for shoes after trying on only 5 pair? I think not!
There is a whole world of men out there that would be happily give you what you aren't getting at home and some of them may even be good lovers. If no accommodation can be made with your husband about fulfilling your needs than I suggest you beat a hasty exit.
The longer you stay in this unhealthy environment the greater the chance will be that you will become more and more embittered. God gave us the gift of sexuality for a purpose. It was meant to give us pleasure and enhance life. Your sexuality is in danger of becoming just the opposite of what nature intended. Do yourself a favor and choose life and happiness. You'll be glad you did…so will God.
Good luck
Intimate Workout
Hello sex fans,
And now for something completely different… It's Product Review Friday all right, but we've seen nothing like this before. Today I, Dr Dick, will do the honors and tell you about a unique product for men. It's a brand new product that will, I believe, change your life for the better. And in the process we welcome another new manufacturer to our review effort, Adult Fitness Concepts.
The Private Gym —— Basic $59.99 Advanced $99.99
Dr Dick
There are a handful of things that I have been very passionate about throughout my long career as a sexologist. Each of my passions revolve around two simple principles: the importance of knowing and owning who we are as sexual beings and an knowing about how our body works. These are the basic building blocks of sexual health and wellbeing.
Sexual wellbeing means a whole lot more than simply being able to perform. It also means taking responsibility for one's eroticism as an integral part of one's personality and involvement with others. But being unfamiliar with the basics of how our body works will surely short-circuit even our ability to perform.
My aim has always been to provide information, guidance, and resources that will help people approach their unique sexuality in a realistic and responsible manner. That's what Dr Dick's Sex Advice and Dr Dick's Sex Toy Reviews are all about. So when a representative of Adult Fitness Concepts contacted me via email to tell me about their new product (actually, it's more of a program than a product), the first FDA registered Kegel exercise program for men, my interest was piqued. I was told that the Private Gym was created after 3 years in development with several leading urologists, physiotherapists, and sexual health experts.
I have been an avid proponent of pelvic floor musculature toning for both women and men for my entire career in sexology. I write and speak about this topic so often that sometimes I feel like a broken record. Don't believe me? Look for yourself. Use the search function in the sidebar of either of my sites, Dr Dick's Sex Advice and Dr Dick's Sex Toy Reviews, type in pelvic muscles, and BANG!
Women tend to know more about Kegel exercises, the exercises that tone and strengthen one's pelvic floor musculature because doctors encourage them to do their Kegels during pregnancy. But here's a tip for all you guys out there who are reading this and rolling your eyes and getting ready to turn the page because you think this is some kinda Oprah — vagina moment. Listen up you monkeys; kegel exercises aren't just for the ladies. Us men folk have pelvic muscles too. So pay attention, you're gonna want to know about Kegels too.
What are Kegels, you may be asking. They're muscle contraction and relaxation exercises designed help restore, tone, and strengthen the muscles that surround the opening of the urethra (see guys, we have one of those), vagina (ok, we don't have one of those, but we do have a penis and we get erections), and anus (we sure as hell have one of those). Since this includes the muscle that you use to stop and start the flow of urine, you can check if you've identified the right muscle by testing your kegel technique while peeing — if you can stop the flow of urine when tightening, then you know that you're contracting the correct muscle group. BTW, the main muscle is call the pubococcygeus muscle, or PC muscle for short.
There are several "toys" on the market that are designed to help women tighten and tone their pelvic floor muscles, Ben Wa balls, and all their modern incarnations, for example. Now, thanks to the Private Gym us men folk have our own exercise program. A program that promises stronger, more rigid erections, a reduction in premature ejaculation, heightened orgasms, improvement in urinary control all while supporting prostate health.
I know what you're thinking, if I can do Kegels on my own, why do I need a program? Good question. The best answer I can come up with is it will help you stray on track and achieve your goals. I mean, isn't that the reason we go to a gym? Surely we can workout on our own, but the support and encouragement we get from being part of and involved in a program makes the effort more rewarding. It's all about psychology, right?
The Private Gym is the first interactive, follow-along exercise program that helps men strengthen the muscles that support and control our cock. As men approach age 30, the muscles that support erectile function begin to weaken. By age 40, more than 50% of men experience some form of erectile dysfunction and this number increases to more then 66% as men approach 60 years of age. And for all you bottoms out there, you know how important it is to keep anal muscles in tip-top, pardon the pun, shape.
There are two parts to the Private Gym program — 1) the Basic Training Program (available on DVD or through digital download) and 2) the Complete Training Program, which involves resistance training.
As we all know, resistance training is key to building strong muscles. Imagine doing bicep curls or a bench press without weights. The Private Gym Complete Training Program resistance equipment is basically a weighted high-quality, latex-free, nonporous, phthalate-free, and hypoallergenic silicone cuff for your dick. How amazing is that? You slip this puppy around your stiffy and do your Kegels. The cuff is also waterproof, so it cleans us easily with mild soap and warm water.
Just like all weight training, muscle contractions increase blood flow and increased blood flow to your johnson will…wait for it…produce harder, larger, and longer-lasting erections. Your pelvic musculature is also responsible for the strength of your ejaculation. Do you dribble instead of shoot? Well, my friend, you have some important exercisin' to do.
While the Private Gym is a practical tool for any guy at any age, I have a few extra words for those men—friends, clients, and correspondents—who are living with and through prostate cancer. I get how difficult things can be after an invasive and life altering surgery. I also know that, for the most part, oncologists are not inclined to walk each of their patients through the emotional and physical minefield that is life after these often devastating medical interventions. But that doesn't mean you have to sink to the lowest common denominator and shut down as a sexual being.
I believe that the Private Gym Basic Training Program can be helpful in regaining a sense of your sexual self after surgery and radiation. I'm currently working with two clients and we are using the Basic Training Program to rehabilitate their traumatized pelvic musculature. While it is too early to tell what kind of success rate we will have, I can say for certain that the effort involved in this program, as well as both of them knowing that someone really cares about their sexual performance issues, is making a huge psychological difference in terms of outlook and confidence. And that is huge!
My own experience with the program has been very positive. I'm 65 years old and I've been dealing with prostate issues, bladder control issues, and erection issues for some time now. I've also been doing Kegel exercises for decades, so I conclude that I am as functional as I am because of my efforts to keep my pelvic musculature toned and strong. The Private Gym is helping me be more conscientious about my workouts. And that is a real good thing.

It is Christmas in England AD 1183, and the King of France, Philip II Augustus, is at the court of Henry II. Henry has let his wife Eleanor out of prison, but only for the holidays, and with the fate of Henry's empire at stake, everybody engages in their own brand of deception and treachery to stake their claim.
A delightful blend of both the comedic and the dramatic, we follow the personal and political conflicts of King Henry II, his wife Eleanor of Aquitaine, their three surviving sons Richard, Geoffrey and John, and Philip's half-sister Alais, betrothed to Richard at age eight, but now Henry's mistress. As Eleanor says, "Every family has its ups and downs," and this royal family is no exception.

William Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, or What You Will is a comedy about a cross-dressing, ship-wreck surviving, poetry-loving girl who finds herself at the center of a not-so-average love triangle.
Believed to have been written around 1601–02 as a Twelfth Night's entertainment for the close of the Christmas season, the play centers on the twins Viola and Sebastian, who are separated in a shipwreck. The play focuses on the Countess Olivia falling in love with Viola (who is disguised as a boy), and Sebastian in turn falling in love with Olivia.

Arthur Miller's Pulitzer Prize winning play of 1949 is widely considered to a cornerstone of American letters. A caustic attack on the "American Dream" of materialism, Death of a Salesman is a three-act play (two acts and a "requiem"), centering on the main character, Willy Loman.
At age sixty-three, Willy has been a traveling salesman all his life. Despite his hard work and grueling schedule, the Lomans have always lived on the edge of poverty and Willy has always been an underling in his company. Yet Willy constantly tells himself and his family that the "big break" he deserves is just around the corner. He has raised his two sons, Biff and Happy, to also believe that somehow life has cheated them and insists that one day they will get their due. Linda, Willy's dutiful wife, lives under the thin veneer of denial that her husband has so long tried to keep from collapsing.
Willy finds that because of changing economic conditions the company has no further need for his services. Willy is devastated and is unable to understand how his employer could just cast him aside after so many years of faithful service. In Act 1, Willy states his work ethic clearly when he says that a man who makes his appearance in the business world is the man who gets ahead. Willy's old boss has died, leaving his son the company. The new owner sees Willy as having outlived his usefulness to the company. Willy is terminated and soon discovers that he is unable to find other similar employment.

Woman's body found in river in Manchester
Police Det. Sgt. Sean Leighton said "there does not appear to be any suspicious circumstances surrounding the death."
Police found the woman's body partially submerged in an area under the Granite Street Bridge by Phillippe Cote Street around 7 a.m., Leighton said.
An autopsy is scheduled for Sunday morning.
Leighton said police know the woman's identity and were in the process of notifying her family. He said the woman was not a missing person.
Michael O'Brien, who works for O'Brien's Outdoor Services in Bedford, said he showed up around 7 a.m. to do landscaping work and saw police cruisers, a fire truck and an ambulance.
"We were told not to go back there" near the bridge, he said.
After hearing someone found a body, O'Brien said, "Obviously, that's a shocker."
Last year, he said his boss found someone badly beaten up in the same general area.
"I guess it's not that unusual for things like that to occur down there," he said.
On Thursday afternoon, a passerby in Nashua spotted a body found partially submerged in the Nashua River. Police haven't released the man's name but said it could be that of a 43-year-old man reported missing in February.

Second CD: Kuster ousts Bass

Democrat Ann McLane Kuster defeated Republican incumbent U.S. Rep. Charles F. Bass in Tuesday's election for the Second Congressional District.
Kuster beat Bass 52 percent to 44 percent, according to election results.
"I am truly humbled by your vote of confidence, and I will do my best to live up to it for as long as I have the privilege of serving New Hampshire," Kuster said in her acceptance speech.
"We all know that's going to take commonsense and compromise. So here's my commitment to you: I will work with anybody, from any party, on any issue if I believe it's in the best interest of our state," she said in her speech. "And I will always stand up for what I believe in."
Bass said by telephone Tuesday night that he was disappointed with the result.
"Obviously, you can't be anything but sad about losing an election," he said. "My view of it is that this is the way the system should work. The voters of this district have spoken and I accept that decision with grace and good cheer."
► NH 2nd Congressional District voting results
Bass said he congratulated Kuster on her victory and pledged to make her transition into office a smooth one.
Bass was attempting to win an eighth term in office, having served from 1995 to 2007 and again since being elected in 2010.
Tuesday's election was a rematch against Kuster, whom he defeated in 2010.
He said he wasn't sure if Tuesday's result was a reflection on him or was the result of voter mood swing in party politics.
"It's hard for me to give an answer for that," he said. "I do think there was a general trend toward blue rather than red."

- Vanderpump Rules Tom Schwartz Quits PUMP Mondays 9/8c
My one big worry in last night's episode is that there's a bit of history between Jean-Christophe Novelli and me. A few years ago, I appeared as a judge on an episode of the British version of Hell's Kitchen and Jean-Christophe was one of two celebrity chefs leading a team of contestants. To cut a long story short, he took such violent exception to my remarks about his team's food that he banned me from all his restaurants. Until last night, our paths hadn't crossed and I was concerned that the tension between us might spill out on to the show.
In fact, after some perfunctory squaring off, we decided to bury the hatchet and - as is the way with these things - ended up getting horribly drunk together when the show had wrapped. We may have even pricked our fingers and become blood brothers - I'm afraid I don't remember. It was the first of what I hope will be many wonderful experiences working on Top Chef.

For the first time in recent NFL memory, the Washington Redskins have two candidates out of the 5 total this year for rookie of the year. Quarterback Robert Griffin III and running back Alfred Morris both are up for the rookie honor.
Robert Griffin III finished the regular season throwing for 3,200 yards, 20 touchdowns and a 102.4 passer rating. He also rushed for seven touchdowns and 815 yards, breaking the previous record held by Cam Newton (2011) of the Carolina Panthers for most rushing yards by a rookie quarterback in NFL history.
Griffin, who was selected to the 2013 Pro Bowl, also became the first player in NFL history with at least four 60+ yard touchdown passes and a 60+ yard rushing touchdown in a season. In Week 11, Griffin's 158.3 passer rating became the highest mark (min.15 attempts) by a rookie quarterback. Griffin was nominated for Pepsi MAX NFL Rookie of the Week seven times, winning six times.
Alfred Morris led all rookie running backs in yardage. He finished the season with 1,613 yards, second-most in the NFL among all running backs and third-most all-time by a rookie behind Eric Dickerson (1,808) and George Rogers (1,674).
Morris also accounted for 13 touchdowns helping push the Redskins into the playoffs for the first time since 2007. He was nominated for Pepsi MAX NFL Rookie of the Week five times, winning three times.
The other candidates this year are QB Andrew Luck from the Indianapolis Colts, RB Doug Martin from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and QB Russell Wilson from the Seattle Seahawks.

I want to have modal windows produced by Javascript for a calendar program, acting sort of like tooltips (wave your mouse pointer over an event link, and you get a modal popup describing the event). The events are stored in MySQL, accessed by PHP.
From what I'm reading, I can get that information into my Javascript modal popup two ways:
An Ajax call: write a PHP script to generate that information, and use Ajax to call it, when I open the modal window
Will either of these not work, or does either seem like horrible programming style? I'm preparing for a class (teaching it, not taking it), so I want things to be as simple and easy to read as possible. To whatever degree possible, I'm using Javascript and DOM, but not jQuery or Ajax (but I'll do what I must to get it working.)

Small Business:
SBA's Preferred Stock Repurchase Program
RCED-95-249FS: Published: Aug 18, 1995. Publicly Released: Sep 18, 1995.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on individual specialized small business investment companies (SSBIC) participating in the Small Business Administration's (SBA) preferred stock repurchase program as of May 31, 1995, focusing on the: (1) repurchase price paid, unpaid dividends forgiven or amortized, and the method used to finance the repurchase; (2) company's private capital, SBA financing, and capital impairment at the time of the stock repurchase; and (3) company's investments in small businesses over the last 5 years and the value of the investment portfolio at the time of the company's most recent report to SBA.
GAO found that: (1) 21 SSBIC paid SBA $17.7 million to buy back their preferred stock which SBA had purchased for $50.3 million; (2) SBA forgave or amortized $15.3 million in accrued unpaid dividends, which ranged from $6,000 to about $4.7 million per company; (3) 19 of the 21 SSBIC paid cash for their stock repurchases, 1 SSBIC used a note to pay for the stock, and 1 used a combination of cash and a SBA note for the repurchase; (4) the 19 SSBIC raised their cash from various sources; (5) the private capital of all 21 SSBIC increased from the date of licensing to the time of the stock repurchase and ranged from $536,000 to a little over $8 million; (6) SBA financing of SSBIC at the time of the repurchase ranged from $700,000 to $10 million, but 7 SSBIC eliminated their outstanding SBA financing after the repurchase; (7) 7 SSBIC received additional SBA financing after the repurchase and 7 SSBIC had a capital impairment greater than 10 percent at the the time of repurchase; (8) from fiscal year (FY) 1990 through FY 1994, the 21 SSBIC provided 1,242 financings to small businesses totalling $116 million; (9) 9 SSBIC had fewer than 10 new financings in each of the 5 years; and (10) as of March 31, 1995, the 21 SSBIC reported a total investment portfolio valued at $117 million which covered investments in approximately 830 small businesses.

Shaun Boothe - Concepts
Artist: Shaun Boothe
Featuring: Talib Kweli
Producer: Shaun Boothe
Album: Hip Hop in 3D Mixtape
Avg Rating: 3.4 ( 15 votes )
Since I have no clue how to begin this track review, I'll let you all in on a little trade secret: when writers bring up the topic of writer's block in their work, they're never just being clever. It's basically the authorial equivalent of a Hail Mary pass, done only after you've been staring at a blank sheet for several unproductive hours. The latest mixtape single from Shaun Boothe was clearly conceived in a moment of genuine desperation, but the Toronto native's frustration is our gain – for a track about the experience of being uninspired, this is pretty damned inspired. Here, Boothe spins his own silky-smooth, soul-sampled boardwork into a meditation on the creative process, brainstorming potential song Concepts with the help of guest emcee Talib Kweli. The result is a catchy, easily-relatable cut laced with spot-on satire of rap clichés: "Let's do a song called 'Titties & Rims'/ Nah, I got it: 'Rims & Titties'/ Trust me, that sh*t'll win.." If you like what you're hearing, you can find plenty more clever rhymes and dope concepts on Boothe's Hip-Hop in 3D mixtape, due out in winter 2010.

Hotel Park and Seeallee Heiden Competition Entry / Kubota & Bachmann Architects + Martinez
Located in a strategic point in Heiden, where different urban conditions come together, the Hotel Park and Seeallee Heiden proposal is shaped by the surrounding landscape. The landscape continuity crossing the plot area, the particular building density, and its relevant position from the main entrance to the city are all used to achieve a perfect urban integration. Designed by Kubota & Bachmann Architects + Martinez, this strategy enhances the environmental qualities, while staying within the strict respect of urban regulations.

'Superpose' School Extension Competition Entry / OVERCODE

Consisting of a school extension, new nursery and new gymnasium, their urban strategy spins around the idea of closing and opening the site at the same time.

Olympic Campus: A New Headquarters for the IOC Competition
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has launched an open and international architecture competition for their new headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland. With the volume of the planned building at roughly 70,000m3, with a ground surface area of 18,000m2, the development will include headquarters for 450 staff members, "Olympic campus" housing administrative buildings, and possible accommodation and services. This will allow the IOC to benefit from two Olympic sites in Lausanne: one in Ouchy around The Olympic Museum, to host the general public; and the other in Vidy for the whole administrative staff and to host its institutional partners. The deadline for submissions is May 15. For more information, please visit here.
Herzog & de Meuron Breaks Ground on Public "Bathing Lake" in Riehen
In 1979, just a year after founding their practice, Herzog & de Meuron won a competition to design a public swimming pool for the Swiss municipality of Riehen. After developing several unrealized iterations over the following years, the project was put on hold indefinitely in 1982. Twenty-five years later, in 2007, Herzog & de Meuron were commissioned to rethink the project and proposed to abandon the conventional pool concept with its mechanical and chemical water treatment systems in favor of a pool closer to natural condition with biological filtration.

SUPSI Campus Project / Kengo Kuma and Associates
Kengo Kuma has paired up with Studio d`Architettura Martino Pedrozzi to develop a two-phase addition to La Scuola Universitaria Professionale della Svizzera Italiana (SUPSI), an institute of higher-education in applied science located in the Italian-speaking region of Switzerland. The proposal intends to overcome an existing urban barrier of an expansive railway system to link the university to the city of Mendrisio, utilizing a "skywalk" as well as a large underpass. Because accessibility and movement are at the core of the building's design, the new addition is a fusion of infrastructure as well as artificial landscape.
More on the SUPSI after the break.
Cinema Hall of Locarno Film Festival Proposal / Mauro Turin Architectes
The design of the future Cinema Hall of Locarno Film Festival by Mauro Turin Architectes was inspired by a strong urban vision. The main goal of the project therefore resulted in the will to create a building that is at the same time unique and harmonious, which refuses to be a stand-alone project by participating actively to the landscape of the city of Locarno.

PLAYERS: Claressa Shields, Katie Taylor, Nicola Adams
Claressa Shields won the first middleweight gold medal in women's Olympic boxing, a dominant victory by an exuberant American teenager who danced, brawled and even stuck out her tongue. Irish lightweight Katie Taylor and British flyweight Nicola Adams also won gold medals Thursday at the London Games in a landmark tournament with the first Olympic titles. The 17-year-old Shields is one of the breakout stars of the games, capping her rapid rise through the amateur ranks in the past two years with three convincing performances. Her power and elusiveness were far too much for Russia's 33-year-old Nadezda Torlopova, nearly twice Shields' age and half her speed at times. Most of the raucous crowd came to see Taylor, who claimed Ireland's first gold medal at these Olympics amid a patriotic fervor highlighted by Irish flags and songs.
