South Lake Tahoe firefighter Sues for Alleged Gang affiliation firing
WATSONVILLE >> A 24-year-old Watsonville man is suing Santa Cruz County law enforcement agencies after he was pulled over on his motorcycle and later lost his job because a deputy called his employer.
Kristopher Klay was riding his motorcycle on Highway 1 near Watsonville in May 2013 when he was stopped by members of the Santa Cruz County Gang Task Force. A South Lake Tahoe firefighter at the time, Klay was wearing a "cut," or leather vest with a patch of the Guerillas Motorcycle Club — a group that rides together and raises money for youth organizations.
Deputies who pulled him over and stopped another rider who was riding with him on a second motorcycle. Authorities asked Klay for his registration, which was current, and Klay and the other rider were let go without being ticketed or arrested.
Four weeks later, about May 30, 2013, Sgt. Stefan Fish of the task force called Klay's boss at South Lake Tahoe Fire and told him about the traffic stop, according to court documents.
It's not clear exactly what was said in the phone call, but a few days later, Klay was called in to meet with his fire chief. He was then fired from his job, which was as a probationary firefighter because he recently started.
The police report said Klay was a member of a motorcycle gang, and the fire chief used the police report as the basis for his termination, said Klay's attorney, Elisa Stewart of the San Francisco law firm Stewart & Musell, LLP.
Now, Klay is suing the Santa Cruz County Sheriff's Office, Watsonville police and Fish, which all participate in the Gang Task Force.
"He's trying to salvage what's left of his reputation," Stewart said of Klay.
"Despite not being arrested, cited or charged with any offense, the law enforcement officers stated in their police report that plaintiff (Klay) was a member of a motorcycle gang and that the detention involved 'gang activity,'" Klay's attorneys wrote.
The complaint also states that the sergeant's call to Klay's employer violated labor law because he was not convicted of a crime. Klay's attorney alleges that Klay was profiled unfairly as a gang member in the stop and the suit asks for an unspecified sum.
Meanwhile, leaders of the Guerillas Motorcycle Club say the club is a charitable group whose members include paramedics, emergency medical technicians, firefighters and hospital workers.
Jesse Ullian, president and founder of the Santa Cruz club, said the group is not a gang, but just a group of people who ride motorcycles together.
"There's a misconception about motorcycle clubs. It's outrageous. Too many people are watching 'Sons of Anarchy,'" Ullian said, referring to the TV drama about an outlaw motorcycle gang.
"The fact that he (the sergeant) would go out of his way to try and ruin a young life like that is unethical, immoral and it's wrong."
An attorney for the Sheriff's Office and Santa Cruz County, Jason Heath, said this spring he planned to "vigorously defend the case," but he declined to comment on specific allegations because the case remains in court.
Motorcycle riders and their attorneys said the task force should do more to differentiate motorcycle clubs from motorcycle gangs when they ride through Santa Cruz County.
Ullian, a 48-year-old who worked at the Dominican Hospital emergency room until recently, said Guerillas Motorcycle Club's roughly 15 members raise money for youth organizations.
Other members are first responders, have families and essentially ride motorcycles together for fun.
"We're such a target right now. We get pulled over all the time," Ullian said....

Any ideas where to buy VAMO circuit boards?
Sent with my arthritic thumbs with proofreading help from the hound!
Any ideas where to buy VAMO circuit boards?
Sent with my arthritic thumbs with proofreading help from the hound!
It will be better in the end...
so if it's not better, it's not the end yet!
Not sure how much sense it makes to buy the board for a Vamo V2 for $22 plus shipping while you get the whole control part including board and top cap for $23 with free shipping.
Add another $3 and you can even get any other version of the Vamo board.
Found 4 vamo control at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
hey all i was having issue with my V3 and V4 popping my tanks off. since i use protanks i just screwed on the ego beauty ring on my V3 and that helps solve the problem, also i used the battery extension tube from my V4 as a tank guard aka tough mode. ego beauty ring also acts as an air flow control since it does not side against the vamo and tank at the same time so you can screw it up or down a little to change how it vapes. also tough mode does not effect airflow that i have see or felt.
I'm using a spare extension tube with the V5 beauty ring for fancy tough mode with an Evod.
It also works with the Vision Victory 5ml tank but no V5 beauty ring for Protanks.
Tough mode won't work at all on Vivi Novas or iClear30s.
That's Vape Mania BTW. It's a propaganda parody and it's a hoot.

Currently vaping DNA40 DIY box mod with BIG Fogger Dual Hor and XPV40 with BIG Fogger Dual Vert and V5 BIG Fogger with dual Hor. on a seVenDNA40 by Pioneer4Me.
And here are some diagrams with dimensions. Most all dimensions measured with a micrometer. There is a small ridge around the circumference for seating in the tube, I am guessing at these dimensions. I tried my best to make sure these are correct but I don't guarantee it, if someone measures different please post. The top cap is three pieces, the metal part, the rubber center pin grommet and the center pin.
Used a SS tube to pull the top cap off, pulled out the half moon plastic piece below the circuit board then pulled out the circuit board then the button tops fell out. Window is plastic and presses out. Soldered new top cap on to circuit board, set buttons in tube, inserted circuit board then plastic half moon, pressed together in a vise using wood pieces on either end, then inserted plastic window to reassemble. Very easy.
The top cap is chrome plated brass and has a small flat head Philips on the bottom side with a dap of solder for soldering the ground lead. I do not know the size of that screw. Hot lead solders to center pin which also had a dob of solder on it.
I had to replace the top cap on my V3 and got an extra just in case my V5 ever needs it. These will fit all the VAMOs but is threaded for a collar ring like the V3/V5 has. Purchased parts from ecigarette impressions.

|Why Feel Guilty?
Warning: This column contains blatant, repeated use of the "M" word
I'm sitting about a United Airlines seven-something-seven, on the
ground at Denver International Airport, two-and-a-half-hours and one
missed connection after I was supposed to depart, wondering if I'll
arrive at my destination in time to give my talks tomorrow. (Someone
please remind me which part of this is supposed to be "glamorous.") And
as much as I'd like to spend this entire column pontificating on the
state of airline unions today, I have other ground to cover.

Chock-up another loss to the recession.
The Base Village at Snowmass project to add hotel rooms, homes and restaurants at the base of the ski area has been put into receivership. James Pavisha of Denver is the receiver. His spokesman Jim DeFrancia says the transition into Pavisha managing operations and finances for Base Village takes effect Monday.
Base Village is controlled by Related WestPac of New York. Four lenders have alleged in a complaint filed in Pitkin County District Court that Base Village owes $386 million on a loan and $48.5 million in loan-related expenses.
The lenders are trying to foreclose on the 400,000-square-foot property.
Related WestPac said Friday it is reviewing its legal options.

Three Graces & The Struggle For Rights
August 7, 2014 / Long Island City LIC / Theater In Queens / Queens Buzz. By Michael Wood. On June 28th I attended the final performance of Three Graces at the LaGuardia College Performing Arts Center.
The title, Three Graces, has a historical reference to Greek mythology. The three graces include beauty, delight and creativity. These characteristics were oftentimes depicted by three young, frequently nude, women who were meant to fill the world with pleasant moments and goodwill. In art these three women are frequently shown dancing around in a circle to the divine music of Apollo. Since the play was written by an American woman with Greek roots, Ruth Margraff, I assumed the historical references had relevance.
The play opens in modern day Istanbul. Istanbul has long been both the cultural and economic capital of Turkey, while Ankara is the political capital of the nation. This is similar in kind to the national role of New York City in the U.S. vis a vis the governing role of Washington, D.C.
The play references recent modern day events - the Spring 2013 riots of Taksim Square / Gezi Park in Istanbul, where reportedly 11 people were killed and thousands significantly injured when the Turkish government / police cleared the park of a sit-in to protest a new government-lead real estate development in Taksim Square and Gezi Park. As is frequently the case, embedded in the protest were a number of issues and themes that went well beyond the real estate development itself.

A Moving Performance Of Four People's Lives
November 5, 2013 / Long Island City LIC Neighborhood / Theater in Queens / Queens Buzz. I had an opportunity to experience the play Pirira just before it opened on October 10th. The original script production is being performed at the Chain Theater in LIC through this weekend, ending November 10th.
It's rare when a play draws tears to the ducts, providing a sort of cathartic release - very much in response to a command performance, as well as from the emotional grist buried beneath the surface in our own lives. Actress Flor De Liz Perez is shown in the photo above right performing in the dress rehearsal of Pirira.
The play is staged in two locations, halfway around the world. One of the locations is in a flower shop in New York, while the other is in the backroom of an American charitable organization in Malawi in Africa. The actors are ... click here for a full review of the play Pirira produced by 167 Theatre.
City Council Meeting: Democracy or Farce?
The Highly Interactive Virtual Reality Play
May 28, 2013 / Long Island City Neighborhood / Theater in Queens / Queens Buzz. I attended a performance of a work in process play at LaGuardia College Performing Arts Center on May 17th.
The play is the brainchild of a producer / writer who came up with the idea while attending a city council meeting on Portland, Oregon.
The writer lives in Brooklyn and has a residency with an arts group in Manhattan. He began attending City Council Meetings in NYC and around the nation, and soon his idea began to take form. He invited a couple of friends to help him flush out the idea, and we saw a very good sketch of the most interactive performance I've seen, at the LaGuardia College Performing Arts Center.
We'll have more on this sometime soon. It was well worth the visit and there's a lot of real life analogies / things to consider that came out of it.
Jamaica & The Performing Arts
Dance Out Loud Receives Thunderous Applause
March 16, 2013 / Jamaica NY / Dance in Queens / Queens Buzz. I attended the Dance Out Loud benefit for the Jamaica Center for Arts and Learning. It was held at the renovated First Dutch Reformed Church, which is now the 400 seat Jamaica Performing Arts Center. The First Dutch Reformed Church was built in 1858, and made a landmark in the mid 1970's after a community effort saved it from being demolished in 1975. After twenty years of limbo and renovations, the building was reopened as the Jamaica Performing Arts Center in 2009. But I digress.
Tonight we would watch some of the best dance companies in the NYC metro area perform a variety of original works, a pleasure that is difficult to find anywhere – even in Manhattan.

Virtual Arts TV Shows Their TITS
Wired Arts Fest Celebrated in Queens
March 8, 2013 / Theater in Queens / Long Island City Neighborhood / Queens Buzz. I attended a Virtual Arts TV performance, entitled TITS, on February 19th at the Secret Theatre in Long Island City. The performance was part of a twelve-day event entitled Wired Arts Fest. Wired Arts Fest is one of the first of its kind, and by the looks of things, appears to not only have legs, but great TITS as well.
TITS, the show, is the brainchild of Ege Maltepe who is a Turkish actress from Turkey who now resides in NYC. The comedy lecture takes on one of huMANity's favored subjects: TITS. It seems Ege stumbled upon the American [and perhaps global] fascination with this part of the female anatomy while joking around. She found that both women, as the owners, and most men; have something between a fascination and obsession with TITS.
And so she created Professor G, the main character in this one-woman comedy lecture. Click this link to view the Virtual Arts TV Queens performance of TITS, including photos of the performance [NOT FOR CHILDREN].

Flamenco Dancing In Queens
American Bolero Brings To Queens The Dance & Music Of Old Spain
March 16, 2012 / Astoria / Dance in Queens / Queens Buzz. I went to watch the American Bolero Dance Company perform Tablao Flamenco on Friday night. There were eleven performances by a panoply of dancers and musicians, who sensually revived the heart and soul of ancient Andalusia and colonial Spain.
The performances were exciting to watch. The dancers' hard heels struck the wooden stage floor, in a staccato rhythm. And as the taps resounded in the air ... the cantadores emoted the melodies of Spain's Medieval past, filling the theater with vibrations of the spirit.
The dancers' fast-footed movements, belied the beautiful tranquility of their lithe upper torsos and slender arms, flowingly extended up into the air, entrapping us as we watched. In the photo to your right is Gabriela Granados, dancing the flamenco in Astoria.

Astoria Performing Arts Center
Astoria Performing Arts Center - Children Of Eden
May 4, 2010 / Astoria / Queens Buzz. I just returned from watching a dress rehearsal of Children Of Eden which is about to open at the Astoria Performing Arts Center [APAC] at the Good Shepherd United Methodist Church in Astoria. I'll start by clarifying the relationship of APAC to the Good Shepherd Church, which is something I had previously pondered.
APAC Offices Are Located In Good Shepherd Church
The Good Shepherd Church is the home to the United Methodist Church which owns and runs the church. The church apparently shares the space with the United Methodist Korean Church as well as rents some space to the Astoria Performing Arts Center. To our knowledge, the church and APAC are not affiliated.

Third Of A Trilogy About Jackson Heights
January 18, 2012 / Jackson Heights / Performing Arts in Jackson Heights / Queens Buzz. I just returned from previewing Jackson Heights 3 AM. It's the third of a trilogy put together under the direction of Ari Kreith of Theatre 167 about the Jackson Heights neighborhood. The play is as mixed as the neighborhood, combining comedy, tragedy and romance to portray the late-night life in the multi-ethnic neighborhood of Jackson Heights.
The cast of actors and actresses did a great job of caricaturing a wide swath of late night personas, as they drew us into the post midnight hours along Roosevelt Avenue; journeying into some of the drama and humor that might generally accompany a late night voyage into NYC urbanity in northwestern Queens.

You Are Now The Owner Of This Suitcase
March 14, 2011 / Jackson Heights / Dance & Theater / Queens Buzz. I was able to preview the new play, You Are Now The Owner Of This Suitcase, now in progress at 167 theatre in Jackson Heights. It's an original work written by about seven people. The producer came up with the approach to collecting material for the play, and then in collaboration with a dramaturg, worked with the group to shape it.
The story revolves around a young woman from Ecuador who decides to visit her grandmother in Jackson Heights to see if she would like to live here. She meets an American on the plane [see photo] and before they depart, their suitcases get switched. We follow both of them into the magical world of Jackson Heights, watching their encounters with the Indian / Bengali phone salesman, the Chinese or Korean dry cleaner ...

167 Tongues Strikes Theatrical Gold
May 7, 2010 / Jackson Heights / Queens Buzz. I just returned from experiencing something truly wonderful. I saw a play entitled 167 Tongues, which opens on May 7th and runs three weeks under the auspices of the Jackson Repertory Theatre at PS 69. Better buy your tickets now, because this is something that could quickly catch fire and with only 99 seats available per night, they could go quickly.
167 Tongues By The Jackson Repertory Theatre
So let's start at the beginning, which was Wednesday night when I arrived to watch the play. When I found they weren't in costume I asked to return the following night as the final rehearsal was to be done in costume. But before I left I took several mental notes, which gave rise to consternation about what I was to experience the following evening.

Black Wall Street At York College PAC
Coming To Grips With The Whole Of Our Nation's Past
January 7, 2013 / Jamaica NY Neighborhood / Performing Arts in Queens / Queens Buzz. I attended the theatrical production of Black Wall Street at the York College Performing Arts Center on Saturday. The play is about the prosperous, African American Greenwood neighborhood of Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1921; and based on a historical book entitled Death in the Land of Promise.
The play centers around an incident in an office building elevator which lead to a white attack on the Greenwood neighborhood of Tulsa, leaving somewhere between 30 and 300 dead [some of whom were shot in the back] and most homes in the neighborhood were burnt to the ground. After two days of house burning, gunfire and looting, the Governor of Oklahoma stepped in and declared martial law. But it was too late. The damage had already been done.
The play is a production of Shades of Truth Theatre Company, which produces and performs original works that tell largely untold tales of the African American experience. Click here for our report and slide show of Black Wall Street.
Rent At York College Performing Arts Center
May 4, 2012 / Jamaica NY / Dance & Theater in Queens / Queens Buzz. The York College Performing Arts Center is hosting performances of the musical, Rent, through May 13th. I had the opportunity to attend a performance of it last weekend, which includes an all-star cast of eighteen actors and actresses, most of whom have affiliations with York College.
The play is scripted along the same lines as the century old Italian opera, La Boheme. La Boheme is based upon a French novel entitled Scenes of the Bohemian Life, which was about the life of 'starving artists' living on the left bank of Paris during the tuberculosis epidemic of the late 1800's. Rent is an updated version of that storyline - about starving artists living in the east village of New York City during the AIDS epidemic of the 1990's.

The Wedding ... Community Theater With Redemptive Theme
Can One Marry A Billionaire And Still Keep Their Sense of Self?
December 12, 2011 / Jamaica / Theater in Queens / Queens Buzz. Saturday afternoon I made my way to the York Performing Arts Center in the Jamaica neighborhood of Queens to see a new play entitled The Wedding.
The play was written by Beverly Morrison Caesar for Arts in Christian Theatre [ACT] which is associated with the Pentecostal Church on Guy Brewer Blvd. Beverly's plays contain a redemptive message and are performed by volunteers from the church and surrounding community.
I spoke to Beverly about how the play originated and how she combined theater, pantomime and a fashion show all in one grand performance. Click here to read more about The Wedding at the York Performing Arts Center in Jamaica Queens.

The Play For Rent Runs This Week
New Theatrical Production at LaGuardia in LIC
October 22, 2012 / LIC Neighborhood / Dance & Theater in Queens / Queens Buzz. I attended one of the dress rehearsals of For Rent last week at LaGuardia Community College in LIC. It was the second time I had seen the play and it gets better with each viewing. The play is a working project of the LaGuardia Performing Arts Center.
The play is set in modern day Istanbul, the thriving capital of Turkey, and quite possibly one the next members of the European Union. Istanbul has become the New York of its country - where extreme wealth resides side by side with extreme poverty. Rather than ignore or hide these people's plight, this play dives right into their midst; with all the violence, sex and fragility that permeates their impoverished lives. In the photo to your left is Sadik, the boss, with Ferhan the cheat in For Rent at LPAC in LIC.

Art Imitates Reality in the 'Museum'
Play Portrays People in Art Museum & Parallels Visits to PaintCan Studios during LIC Art Open
May 15, 2012 / Sunnyside / Performing Arts in Queens / Queens Buzz. The Museum was the first play written by Tina Howe back in 1976. It's a mix of comedy and satire depicting the scene in an art gallery on the last day of a controversial artist's show. The play includes about forty characters who come through the gallery to see the show before it ends.
The 'set' is a large artist studio in the PaintCan, which is the affectionate name given the third floor of 10-10 44th Road. The PaintCan is the home to about a dozen or more artists' studios containing a range of artwork and artists that were easily worth the visit themselves. We'll post a separate report on the PaintCan in the coming day.

Maids – Final Installment
Mutation From Original Themes, Into Exploration Of Time
November 5, 2011 / Long Island City / Theater in Queens / Queens Buzz. I just returned from watching the final installment of Maids. Maids was a four production work put on by the LaGuardia College Performing Arts Center [hereafter referred to as LPAC] in Long Island City. While the germ of the work was based on a Jean Genet play, the play only served as the starting point for what was an experimental work created by Handan Ozbilgin, Assistant Artistic Director of LPAC.
It's been said, that "art should make one feel uncomfortable". One of the goals of art is to challenge one's perspective, move one out of their comfort zone, get one to see things in a different light and make one think about things. And so it was tonight that … click here to read the rest of our review of the final installment of Maids – experimental theater in LIC Queens.

April 8, 2011 / Long Island City / Dance & Theater / Queens Buzz. I attended the first evening of the Green Space Blooms dance festival Friday night. It's the fifth year of the Queens modern dance festival, which runs through April 17th at Green Space in Long Island City [see Queens Events for details].
There are about thirty dancers and choreographers involved in the festival, making it the largest event of this nature in the Queens thus far this year. On opening night, three dance companies performed their works, only one of which I photographed, out of costume at their rehearsal.

Maids 3:337 - Life As Theater
Kept Off Balance While Struggling To Find Meaning
February 21, 2011 / Long Island City LIC / Queens Buzz. I find myself being increasingly drawn into the four part experimental theater entitled Maids. I reviewed the first show last fall [use the search function to find it] and I just returned from having watched, witnessed or participated in the second show, which was held this past weekend.
The production explores a couple of themes, but its texture contains so many dimensions, that I can only begin to give you a sense of them in this review. The stage included the hallways of LaGuardia College, a loading dock and freight elevator, the back stage and the main theater. Having been to the first show in this series, I found myself beginning to get comfortable with the sense of discomfort one feels when we, in the audience, aren't completely anonymous.

Xmas Comedy at Café Marlene in Sunnyside
December 1, 2011 / Sunnyside / Theater in Sunnyside / Queens Buzz. Sofia Geier, founder of the Unity Stage Company, has put together a comedic treat of nine quick one act plays that draw upon holiday traditions, providing cheer by cynically poking fun at people, places and patches out of the spirit of Christmas past ... and present.
I attended one of their dress rehearsals several days prior to opening night. The plays included some sharp turns in the road and a small sag in the middle. But the general production quality, playwrights' humor and professional acting kept me amused for most of the hour and a half the plays ran.

Inside The Creative Process
John Jasperse Open Rehearsal At Topaz Arts In Woodside
May 2, 2011 / Sunnyside & Woodside / Dance & Theater / Queens Buzz. I visited Topaz Arts in Woodside Monday night, to observe an open rehearsal presented by John Jasperse & Company. Jasperse is a highly regarded contemporary choreographer and dancer. He is the creator of a number of award winning works, the most recent of which is Truth, Revised Histories, Wishful Thinking and Flat Out Lies. He is currently working on a new dance to be presented at BAM [Brooklyn Academy of Music] this fall as part of their Next Wave program. Next Wave showcases innovative dance, theater and music.
The open rehearsal began with Jasperse showing what are essentially draft dance pieces of his new work. There were a number of dancers involved in the project who performed while we watched and listened to the accompanying music on a portable player. As the event was an Open Rehearsal, the dancers weren't wearing any costumes or outfits, but rather loose athletic clothing, the kind you'd expect to see them wearing while practicing.

Thalia Theatre Bridges Cultural Divide
Sunnyside / Fall & Winter. I enjoyed a dance performance by the Mestizo Dance Company last Friday evening at the Thalia Theatre in Sunnyside. The show, which runs weekends through December 6th, is a panoply of colorful costumes, music by an accomplished eight piece band, all in support of an impressive performance by a full troupe of talented dancers. All tolled they performed nearly twenty dances from various parts of Latin America which the audience seemed to greatly enjoy.

Candy Spelling opens up about Tori's recent hospitalization
Tori Spelling has had her life displayed in the tabloids a lot recently. From her husband Dean McDermott cheating, to their sex issues, to her recent hospitalization, the actress has had quite a difficult past few months.
Tori Spelling hospitalized amidst marriage drama
Actress Tori Spelling has been released from hospital after secretly spending six days in a Los Angeles medical centre for undisclosed issues.
The former "Beverly Hills, 90210″ star, who has been fighting to save her marriage, was spotted heading home on Saturday afternoon, still sporting a hospital ID bracelet on her wrist as her husband Dean McDermott helped her into a waiting vehicle.
An insider tells E! News that McDermott spent up to 10 hours with his wife during her unexpected stay, and he seemed "very stressed out and worried" while waiting for Spelling to recuperate.
The mother-of-four recently opened up about the couple's marital problems on their latest reality series "True Tori," confirming rumors that the Canadian actor had embarked on an affair with another woman last year.
McDermott subsequently checked into a Los Angeles rehab facility weeks later to deal with "some health and personal issues."
The couple will mark its eighth wedding anniversary on May 7.
Dean McDermott tells Tori Spelling: 'Happily married men don't cheat'
A miserable looking Dean McDermott stepped out to grab a coffee and a sandwich in LA while sporting a UFC T-shirt that had "Godspeed & Party on" emblazoned across the shoulders.
Tori Spelling's shocked by McDermott's sex therapy confession
The new season of "True Tori" premieres Tuesday night on Lifetime, and Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott's marriage is on the rocks in the wake of his affair. In this preview clip, the couple let the cameras into their therapy session (why, oh, why we have no idea), during which McDermott makes a few comments about the couple's sex life and his cheating that have Spelling fuming.

Tori Spelling opens up about husband's cheating
Actress Tori Spelling has opened up about husband Dean McDermott's cheating scandal for the first time insisting she wants to tell the real story.
The couple hit headlines in December when reports surfaced suggesting McDermott had cheated on his wife of seven years while he was in Toronto.
Following the news, McDermott checked himself into a treatment facility and subsequently admitted the reports were true in a promo for their new reality show, True Tori.
Now Spelling is speaking out to tell of her despair over her husband's infidelity.
The former "Beverly Hills, 90210" star tells UsWeekly magazine she found out about the affair from an aide before it was made public, saying, "We put all four kids to bed and went into our bedroom. I said, 'I didn't hear it from you first, but I deserve to hear it before the world hears it.' I laid on my side (of the bed) and he laid on his side and he talked me through the entire week with (lover) Emily (Goodhand). He didn't get graphic; I didn't want him to. We kept it to facts. …
"He went to treatment (the next morning). I didn't kick him out. He decided he had hit rock bottom. He had hurt me and the family, and it all crumbled. He needed to go away and work on himself…"
McDermott has since completed his treatment, but Spelling reveals she is uncertain about the future of their marriage: "If I can't ever let my guard down again, then there can't be a relationship. … Whether I can trust him again, that's the big question. … I feel better now, getting it out, getting it off my chest, talking it through. We're parenting and figuring out if there is any relationship to be saved. I have no idea. Whichever way my marriage goes, though, I finally have my voice back and can be honest. We'll see what happens."
"True Tori" premieres on April 22.
Dean McDermott confesses to cheating on Tori Spelling in new reality show trailer
Tori Spelling's husband Dean McDermott has confessed to cheating on his wife in a new trailer for the couple's upcoming reality TV show, insisting his infidelity is his "worst nightmare."
The couple hit headlines in December amid reports suggesting the Canadian actor had embarked on an affair with another woman behind Spelling's back.
Representatives for the pair refused to comment on the claims, but McDermott checked into a Los Angeles rehab facility weeks later to deal with "some health and personal issues."
They recently announced a deal with Lifetime network to air out their marriage troubles in another reality series, titled "True Tori," and the first trailer for the show suggests it will be a rollercoaster ride for fans.
In the clip, former "Beverly Hills, 90210″ star Spelling is seen breaking down in tears as the mother of four says, "I'm really mad. I could never give him enough sex. He's never going to be happy with just me."
McDermott is then shown confessing to breaking his marriage vows, claiming "sex was an escape, just like alcohol and drugs," adding, "That's my worst nightmare; I cheated on my wife."
The trailer ends with Spelling facing up to the fact her eight-year marriage "might not have a happy ending" as she continues to sob.
Ironically, Spelling previously admitted in her 2010 memoir that she lived in fear her husband might cheat on her – because they met and fell in love on the set of their 2006 TV movie "Mind Over Murder" while they were each married to other people.
In "Uncharted TerriTORI," she wrote, "Given our history, I often get worried that Dean is going to cheat on me. If the phone rings and it's a girl's voice I have to ask if he's having an affair.
"Dean has never been anything but devoted, and he tells me over and over again that he would never do that. Deep down I believe him. But I can't stop myself. For some reason I'm compelled to accuse him of cheating."
Spelling and McDermott wed in 2006 and has four kids together, aged between seven and two years old.
Watch the "True Tori" trailer below:
Tori Spelling's marriage troubles to play out on reality TV series
Tori Spelling and husband Dean McDermott's recent marriage troubles will be at the forefront of their new reality TV series.
The former "Beverly Hills, 90210" star will tackle reports her partner was caught cheating in her upcoming show, "True Tori."
The six-part run will begin with McDermott leaving a rehab facility, which he checked into to deal with "personal issues" after the scandal broke.
A statement from Lifetime reads: "Tori has made the courageous decision to allow the audience to witness the most difficult and unpredictable period in her life.
"Intimate, raw, emotional and completely real, Tori will tell her story for the first time as it should be told – by her. Since viewers will be seeing events almost immediately after they occur, nobody knows how the drama will unfold – not Tori, not Dean – and only time will tell if Tori and Dean's marriage survives."
Spelling and McDermott, who have been married for seven years, have four children, all under the age of six. They have documented their home lives in reality TV shows since 2007.
"True Tori" is set to premiere on April 22.
Tori Spelling's husband Dean McDermott checks into rehab
Tori Spelling's actor/Food Network star husband Dean McDermott has checked into a rehab facility in Los Angeles to deal with "some health and personal issues."
The 47 year old has not revealed specific reasons for his decision to undergo professional treatment, but the news emerges a month after reports suggested his eight-year marriage to former "Beverly Hills, 90210″ star Spelling had been rocked by allegations of his infidelity.
A statement released by McDermott to People.com reads: "I am truly sorry for the mistakes I have made and for the pain I've caused my family.
"I take full responsibility for my actions and have voluntarily checked myself into a treatment center to address some health and personal issues. I am grateful to be getting the help I need so I can become the husband and father my family deserves."
Actress-turned-reality TV regular Spelling, who has four kids with McDermott, has yet to comment on the cheating rumors or her husband's rehab stay.
Jennie Garth and Tori Spelling's new show a hit
Former "Beverly Hills, 90210″ co-stars Jennie Garth and Tori Spelling have put their personal woes behind them to celebrate a professional boost – their new TV show has been picked up as a series.
Garth, who is looking for love after ending her marriage to Peter Facinelli in 2012, and Spelling, who ended 2013 amid reports her union to Dean McDermott is in trouble, will play former TV cops who become real-life crime solvers in Mystery Girls.
The two actresses wowed ABC network bosses with a "Mystery Girls" pilot, and they will also executive produce the series.
No start date has been announced but Mystery Girls is expected to debut on ABC Family later this year (14).
Tori Spelling shares family Christmas photo amid cheating reports
Actress-turned-reality TV star Tori Spelling is focusing on family by sharing photos of her children on Christmas Day amid reports of her husband Dean McDermott's infidelity.
The former "Beverly Hills, 90210″ star hit headlines on Thursday after editors at Us Weekly magazine published a cover story accusing Canadian actor McDermott of cheating on his wife of seven years.
In the article, a woman named Emily Goodhand revealed all about a steamy encounter she claimed to have enjoyed with the 47 year old at his suite at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel in Toronto on December 6, when McDermott was promoting the TV series "Chopped Canada," of which he is a host.
Goodhand, 28, tells the magazine, "He told me he and Tori had a sexless marriage… I believed him."
Representatives for McDermott and Spelling, 40, have declined to comment on the report, and the mother of four appeared to be ignoring the rumors
about the state of their relationship on Thursday by sharing a Twitter.com link to her blog, where she had posted a cute Christmas picture of her kids with Santa, with 16-month-old Finn crying as the shot is taken.
Santa + 4 McDermott babes… http://t.co/dhdbl16uOH
— Tori Spelling (@torianddean) December 26, 2013
In the accompanying post, Spelling writes, "I had to share our annual Santa photo with all of you! How cute do my babes look?!
"Stella looks like she's enjoying her visit with Santa, but Liam, Hattie and Finn all have pretty funny expressions on their faces. How would you
caption this pic of the McDermott brood with Mr. Claus?
"Hope you're all having a very Merry Christmas with the ones you love!"
The latest blog post was uploaded hours after Spelling revealed how she was spending the Christmas holiday, writing: "As another year comes to a
close, I can't help but feel so grateful for all of my blessings. My beautiful family, my amazing friends, and of course, all of you!
"We're spending the day together – cuddling, cooking, baking, unwrapping gifts, eating, watching movies and counting our blessings…"

I am a big fan of the Nike brand. This jacket is stylish and a great pullover for days that aren't too cold to require a large Carharrt. My dad has a similar Nike pullover that he loves to wear golfing. These aren't restrictive so you can work or play worry free. A great and still fashionable product that I definitely recommend.

Photos and Description of this 7 bedroom holiday chateau / country house in Mold - Jacobean Manor
Beautiful Grade I Manor on the border of Wales
The property is a Grade 1 listed Jacobean Manor just inside Wales, near Chester, and about a mile from an attractive market town.
The house consists of an oak panelled central hall, complete with family portraits, for general entertaining with a drawing-room and dining-room off it. There are four double bedrooms and four bathrooms on the first floor with a further three double bedrooms with two bathrooms on the second floor to accommodate up to a total of 14 guests.
Jacobean Manor is very much a family house providing you and your guests with a unique type of weekend, or stay, in unusual historic surroundings and complete privacy.
Interior and Grounds:
The house contains seven large bedrooms, all of which have their own adjoining en suite bathrooms. A feature of the top floor is the large entertainment area in the centre of the floor below the original oak roof beams. There is also a lift available to the first floor. All bedrooms are finished to a high and exacting standard. There are Italian Frette linen, duck feather pillows & duvets as well as bathroom products for your comfort. Our kitchen is located beyond the Dining Room and is fully-equipped with an oil-fired Aga and a Rangemaster electric cooker. Guests have the option of using our kitchen to prepare all their own meals, including breakfast.
The manor is approached down a tree-lined drive and is surrounded by some 100 acres of land belonging to the Estate to provide complete privacy. There are 3 acres of garden within the house's surrounding stone wall, while beyond the Llettai, there is a Victorian walled garden, also facing south, with a central lawn. Beyond that is a 17th century barn likely to be converted into a further family house in due course. The land around the house leads down to the River Alyn which is also ideal for displaying birds of prey, one of the outside activities that can be arranged here.
We can also arrange clay pigeon shooting and will provide all the equipment including pigeon traps, clays and cartridges, as well as guns, if required. This has become an increasingly popular activity for our guests.
For larger groups of up to 18 there is also a cottage within the grounds that is available for hire in conjunction with the main house. Please enquire for prices.

In the past few weeks our Shanghai photography and retouching team were busy creating a whole series of advertising shots for the re-launch of China's #2 dry yeast brand, DAN BAO LI. The campaign was created and masterminded by the French branding agency EQUANCY, which over a period of several weeks worked intensively with our team to try and meet the tight deadline. In total, five key visuals were created which you will see online and in various mags in the coming weeks and months.
One of those KVs was particularly interesting – we purchased a stock image and used it as background setting for the model and product we photographed in our Shanghai photo studio – see below how the images was composed:
The production team consisted of approx. 12 people incl. our senior photographer, hair and make-up artist, wardrobe stylists, location scouts, our executive producer, our model casting director, assistants, retouchers, prop stylists and four Asian models, one Caucasian models. Our team does more and more FMCG photography shoots, and we welcome DANBAOLI to our list of brands we worked with!

Feeling :: L x Light 4L looked exactly like he was about to pop any second. He was just nine months and was slightly overdue. Watari was on standby with their personal doctor for the moment that the pregnant man's water broke. L wasn't too stressed about the whole thing, but his boyfriend was being frantic. He wouldn't leave L's side and wouldn't let the older man do anything for himself. The raven haired man was annoyed by this. He liked freedom almost as much as he liked strawberry cake. Soon enough the teenager got on the end of the detective's nerves."Yagami-Kun leave me alone!" he ordered loudly.Light was about to argue but the tone in his lover's voice stopped him. He went to go sit down next to L when the older man shook his head and pointed his hand to the door. Light kept his head high, but complied with the pregnant man's wishes.L smiled and relaxed more into the couch, his stomach protruded annoyingly in front of him. He ran a hand over the stretched material of the shirt covering the large st
Feeling :: L x Light 3Light soon found out that having a pregnant lover was harder than he thought. It was worse that he was still chained to L as well. The older male was getting extremely hormonal and his baby bump was getting more visible. He was now about twenty weeks along. Sadly the teenager was around a few weeks ago when the detective found out that he could no longer sit like he normally did. L was so upset that he burst into tears and Light had to calm him down. The pregnant man was also now sleeping longer, almost six hours a night. Light enjoyed this because it meant that he could get more sleep as well.Light was deep in thought when L tugged on the chain, snapping him out of his mind."What?""I want a bath," L stated as he pulled Light out of the chair and dragged him to the bathroom.Light watched on as L undressed. He stopped when he felt the teenager's gaze on him and glared."Do you mind?""Not at all," the younger male replied, staring at his boyfriend's bloated stomach."You know I don'

Formed during the mid-'90s "Midwestern Renaissance" that brought us the Promise Ring and Joan of Arc, Wisconsin natives Rainer Mariawowed the heartland, then moved to New York City in 2000, where they earned their share of street cred. But the Big Apple didn't change the trio's gentle tone. If Sixpence None the Richer were still around (wait, are they?), Rainer Maria, named for the poet Rainer Maria Rilke, might be what they would sound like: innocuous and gentle.

Fort Lean generated its fair share of buzz from their performance at this year's CMJ Music Marathon, and the Brooklyn indie rockers continue to feed the fire with the premiere of their latest music video.
"Beach Holiday" features the band pining for a vacation while firmly embedded behind the counter of a New York butcher shop as impatient Italian grandmothers fuss about.
Check out singer Keenan Mitchell's bleached-out curls and some serious Fender rocking in the pantry in the clip right here. (exclusively via Spin):
Fort Lean currently has a self-released, four-song EP available at their bandcamp web page, which lists one upcoming show in Brooklyn on Dec. 16.

I would highly recommend the Sonesta Fort Lauderdale for your wedding. I had my rehearsal, brunch, wedding, and reception there the weekend of 10-25-14 and the hotel itself as well as the staff made my wedding a night to remember. The reason I originally went with the hotel was because of it's spectacular views and modern South Beach type decor. My husband and I loved the atmosphere and the proximity to the beach for our many out of town guests. Arthur Sands was a pleasure to work with and made sure everything ran smoothly. He was very helpful and responsive to my requests and helped me with the transition when the hotel changed from B Ocean to Sonesta. Arthur also recommended vendors that also were wonderful. The food for each event, my rehearsal dinner, the cocktail hour, the reception, and the breakfast was incredible. I was shocked as usually wedding food isn't always up to par.
The staff did an amazing job coordinating each of my events and I would recommend this hotel to anyone getting married that is looking for a beautiful "beach" wedding without getting your toes in the sand:)

Our wedding at B Ocean was just beautiful. We had many guests fly in from the cold weather, so we wanted to impress them a little bit with the ocean scenery - safe to say we accomplished that! We were married outside under a full moon over the ocean - simply stunning. All of our guests commented on how well run the whole night was. The service was smooth and the staff just couldn't do enough for us. One guest told us that the food was so delicious, he was going to come back the next night for dinner! Not what one usually hears about wedding food! Arthur was extremely helpful and responsive throughout the entire planning process - he must have responded to each email I sent him within 5 minutes! He also recommended the most wonderful vendors who worked together seamlessly as a cohesive unit. I'm sure it took an army to make our wedding perfect, but I would never know. I had the least stressful day I could have imagined, and I want to do it all over again! THANK YOU!!

To all the brides out there, please book your wedding at B Ocean hotel only if you want superb service, excellent food, and a view to die for. From the Catering Manager Arthur Sands, to the Sales Manager Judy Harstein everything was done in perfection and class. I recently wed at the B Ocean hotel in August 2013, my guest loved the hotel setting and the services that they provided my ceremony and reception was organized and the evening flowed perfectly. Working with Arthur and Judy was one of the easiest relationships to have during my wedding process. They made me and my family and friends feel comfortable and at home. I will recommend this hotel to anyone who is truly ready to have a classy and absolutely good time at their wedding. You are definitely in good hands with the venue, they took care of all of my needs and request and was always professional. My husband and I are officially going back to B Ocean Hotel every year.

My wedding was just perfect. The horizon ballroom at night is beautiful. It oversees the ocean and makes it just romantic. Noha and William were just amazing. They made sure everything was perfect. I would definitely come back and stay at the B Ocean again and renew my vows.

Everyone at the B Ocean hotel was more than incredible for my wedding! The hotel itself is ideal with the most gorgeous view and a penthouse that was built for the perfect event. I worked with Arthur Sands as my coordinator and he was very accommodating, attentive and just an overall nice person. He made sure no detail was missed and stayed on top of everything. The people that I worked with the day of my wedding were equally as amazing! Noha, Jeff, and William were as kind and helpful as Arthur had been. The staff and the accommodations at the B Ocean were top notch and I would not change a single thing about my wedding!

Our family and friends who stayed at the hotel were highly impressed and loved their bedrooms with the most spectacular views of the ocean and the high level of staff service.
Everyone who attended our wedding had a fun time and were full of compliments for the venue, the penthouse ballroom oh my gosh had the most stunning floor to ceiling views of the Ocean, wow !! Panache Style created an ambience filled with love & romance.
Our ceremony was hosted on The Terrace and Bobby created simple elegance and I was the happiest bride ever !!
The presentation of the food and beverage was excellent for our cocktail hour & our reception. B Ocean Menu/Buffet was so delicious and satisfied our taste buds fully. Our Wedding planner Joni Scalzo made sure we ate lol ! The entire experience was unforgettable & memorable & more than we had hoped for.

Amazing venue!!! The staff is perfect and makes you feel like royalty. The scenery is amazing with ocean views at every glance. The food cannot be any better. The atmosphere is very private, which is rare for hotel weddings. And even better, if guests are coming from out of town, they can relax by the beach! Highly recommend this venue!!

B Ocean was a fabulous hotel for our wedding guests to stay. We arranged a block of rooms a few month in advance and was kept in constant touch with. Their overall services was superb. Very pleasant and the rooms were gorgeous, very decently priced oceanfront hotel.

We absolutely loved the B. After doing an extensive amount of research, I stumbled across the B Ocean online one night. My now husband and I were so anxious to see the property, we went to the hotel at 2am to see the location. From the first employee we encountered at the desk, everyone was very helpful, friendly and accommodating. Arthur, the catering manager, was great throughout the planning process and involved the day of the wedding. We got married on the breeze terrace (second floor), which was beautiful (think...the beach without the sand) and had 2 reception rooms (Infinity for the formalities and Horizon for the dessert/party room). All the guest rooms are an ocean view, by the way. Doesn't hurt if you have out of town guests!

Beautiful Venue!! Breath taking views!! The B-Ocean is a fantastic venue for someone looking for an indoor wedding with the most beautiful oceanview in Fort Lauderdale! It's like getting the best of both worlds: having an indoor wedding with an outdoor view! Very romantic setting. The staff is very friendly and Arthur, the catering director was very pleasant to work with. Overall we are satisfied with the service and glad we picked this venue for our special day. : )

B Ocean was the perfect location to host all of our out of town guests for our March wedding. The venue is updated and modern, we got married in the penthouse and loved the unbelievable views. Overall the staff is super helpful, especially Noha and Judi who take care of you through the planning process. The only downfall we ran into were we had guests from another wedding getting drinks from our bar. But in the grand scheme of things, the hotel took great care of us, even providing us with our own server to make sure the wedding party got food and drink all night. Definitely a great venue!

My wedding at the B Ocean was absolutely beautiful. Although they offer packages for the ceremony and reception, I had only my reception there. And I can't even describe how beautiful it was! The hotel has a sleek and modern look, which I loved. We had our cocktail hour and reception in different rooms on the penthouse floor, and both rooms had floor-to-ceiling panoramic views of the ocean on one side and the city on the other. It was breathtaking.
We worked with Noha, who was very responsive and professional. On the day of, William went above and beyond to make sure that everything was going perfectly.
The food was delicious; honestly, I expected it to be just okay. It was great at the tasting, but that is when the chef is making it specially for you (and for you to love). But it was just as good, if not better, the night of, which really impressed me. We had a chicken dish, and even days later, several of our guests continued to comment how good it was.
I gave only four stars for flexibility because the B Ocean was not very flexible with prices. They will give you an array of add-ons, and they will work with you when they can, but they were not willing to do much negotiation (it's probably a sales tactic, but I noticed that other venues were ready to slash the price for this or throw in that for free). They are also not flexible with meals--they must know each meal in advance, so if you ordered 90 steak dinners and 50 chicken dinners, but on the day of, 10 guests wanted to swap their meal, they would not be able to accommodate that.
I thought the value was excellent, and they also gave us a great rate for our room block.
Overall, though, I cannot rave enough about my experience there the night of my wedding. Everything went so smoothly: meals were delivered quickly and delivered warm; drinks were served quickly; the staff seemed to bend over backwards to make sure our guests were enjoying themselves. And, did I mention, the views are breathtaking?!

I had my wedding ceremony/reception at the Sonesta Fort Lauderdale. Everything was PERFECT! It's had to believe that planning a destination wedding could be so easy and flawless. The staff at the Sonesta is so genuine and professional. All of out 105 out of town guests loved the cleanliness of the hotel, the staff, rooms, food, drinks, etc. I couldn't have dreamed of a better place for my wedding. The ballroom has the most amazing views...it's better than a fairytale!! Sonesta is THE place to have a wedding in Fort Lauderdale!
