Description: Oh those sensitive, sex-obsessed boys. Just a slight hint at carnal matters and there you have him, hard, needy, ready to play with his erection even when there are people around. Just like this honey here. Chilling out in the bed he plays with a banana he's eating. The shape of the fruit must remind him of some of the naughty things he did before. His dick rises proudly and the boy dedicates one hand entirely to playing with his hardening shaft...

Description: When you shack up with your older male lover, things can get out of control - and they do get out of control pretty often for this twink hottie here. He was chilling in the shower taking care of his lovely tight body, and then his lover entered the bathroom to help the boy dry the water off. A random touch on the boy's cock, and the guy was done. He couldn't help it, he just couldn't help it. His mouth got busy sucking on the hardening thing, and in a few moments he was having this thick long bat-like dick all the way in his wet manhole. The twink got dirty without even leaving the shower which was supposed to wash him clean!

I start licking and sucking his shaft then I take out my own hardened rod and start a cock fight. Cory and I bust our nuts as our shafts are rubbing together.

I ain't walking around naked, I don't even do that around my girlfriend!'' and then Tony takes a shower. Back on the sofa I lube up his cock and dive down on it as he watches me and the porn flick. The complaints start: ''When I cum I gotta be in the right position or it ain't happenin!'' Tony says as he shifts position several times. Then he bitches at me for not strokin' him the right way! Finally he's so exasperated he grabs his cock away from me and starts to get himself off! Fine! When I start licking his balls though, he blows a 2-day old load into his own hand. ''What are you gonna do today?'' I ask. ''Get fucked up!'' he says. A little weird this time.

The Goldbergs: TV review
This new retro family sitcom needs to take a chill pill.
Tue Sep 24 2013
CommentsAdd +
It take a certain amount of moxy to think that your family is interesting enough to build sitcom around, but that exactly what Adam F. Goldberg has done, right down to preserving his own name. The closing credits of the pilot episode of The Goldbergs even includes comparative home-video footage of the creator's parents and sibling, as if trying to prove that yes, in fact, these cartoon characters you just watched are real people. Still, just because something's honest, doesn't mean it's going to make for good television.
The Goldberg family is wacky bunch. That's one of the things you'll learn quickly in the pilot. They're wacky and they're loud. Adam (Sean Giambrone), the youngest, has a tendency to follow everyone around with a camcorder that's so humongous it looks like he barely carry it. This quirk is met with much yelling from his family members to stop filming them. Murray Goldberg (Jeff Garlin), the resident patriarch, is perhaps the loudest of the bunch, prone to chastising his family in ways that simultaneously profess his affection and frustration with their behavior. Second to him is middle brother Barry (Troy Gentile), who's so cartoonishly high-strung he may have a heart attack before graduating from high school. The ladies of the Goldberg clan, mother Beverly (Wendi McClendon-Covey) and big sister Erica (Hayley Orrantia), are just big fat stereotypes: Beverly smothers her children and Erica is a teenage girl who talks on the phone a lot. And then there's Pops (George Segal), Beverly's father, who has fun undermining his daughter's parenting choices by giving Adam advice about girls and gifting Barry a car for his 16th birthday.
In a move reminiscent of The Wonder Years, The Goldbergs is set in the 1980s and narrated by older Adam that's voiced by Patton Oswalt. This adds little to the show. There are some parallels between the loud, boisterous personality of '80s culture and the exuberant family at the center of this sitcom. Mostly, the show appears to be set in the past because it's a semi-autobiographical representation of the real Adam F. Goldberg's family and that's when he grew up. The series doesn't really use it to a storytelling advantage.
The comedic talents of the adult cast of The Goldbergs are undeniable and they're all clearly enjoying screaming punchlines at each other, though the younger members of the ensemble don't fare quite as well, coming off as caricatures more than real people. The joys of watching Garlin, McClendon-Covey and Segal snark at each other make the show an amusing comedy. However, this intense level of energy, where everyone communicates by yelling over each other, is fairly exhausting.

Yaphank, N.Y.-based Suffolk County Transit (SCT) contracted with INIT to implement an intelligent transportation system (ITS) on more than 300 of their fixed-route and paratransit vehicles.
The contract between SCT and INIT includes an intermodal fleet management system, onboard computers, driver terminals and onboard announcements, with 10% of the fleet being equipped with INIT's automatic passenger counting technology. The new system will integrate with SCT's existing destination signs, fare boxes and next-stop signage, as well as with their current paratransit scheduling software provided by another vendor.
One unique highlight of the new project is the ability of SCT to run their central hardware in a virtualized environment. The advantage of a virtual environment is that it reduces physical space while maximizing hardware resource usage. Additional features of the project include software modules for creating forms, reporting and statistics, and a full scheduling application.
The total contract value is in the upper single digit millions and the project is expected to be completed by 2014.

actually reside within the spinal cord. Once these cells are activated, they too remove degenerating fiber tracts and other tissue debris by phagocytosis. They also secrete numerous cytokines, free radicals, and growth factors, which, in turn, affect nearby cells in positive and negative ways (Lindholm et al., 1992; Schnell et al., 1999; Anderson, 2002). The growth factors are critical for neuron survival and tissue repair. However, free radicals and proinflammatory cytokines contribute to expansion of the lesion, worsening the impact of the injury. Activation of macrophages and microglia is sustained over the course of weeks.
The role of lymphocytes in spinal cord injuries is somewhat controversial. Some argue that one type of lymphocyte (autoreactive T-lymphocytes) have destructive properties: according to this schema they exacerbate injury to axons and induce demyelination, leading to functional loss (Popovich and Jones, 2003). Others argue that this lymphocyte is not pathological but, rather, confers protection to the myelin-insulated neurons (Schwartz and Kipnis, 2001; Kipnis et al., 2002). Protection of myelin also protects the integrity of the axon that it insulates.
During the acute phase, the mechanical trauma to the spinal cord causes cells to die instantaneously by necrosis, a process of cell swelling and then cell membrane rupture. Within hours, however, another type of cell death assumes center stage: apoptosis. This very active form of death afflicts neurons, oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, and other cells of the spinal cord after injury (Liu et al., 1997; Beattie et al., 2000). Apoptosis has been detected in humans (Emery et al., 1998) and lasts for about one month in animal models (Beattie et al., 2000). With apoptosis, cells do not swell before death; rather, they condense and break apart into small fragments in a very orderly process that requires energy and protein synthesis. These fragments of the apoptotic cell are engulfed by other cells in a process that prevents spillage of the dying cells' contents and avoids elicitation of an inflammatory response. Necrotic cell death, on the other hand, elicits inflammation and spills out neurotransmitters and other contents that build to levels toxic enough to harm or kill nearby cells.
What triggers apoptosis after spinal cord injury? An answer to this question would immediately open up new targets for treatments that could prevent apoptosis from occurring. A major trigger appears to be the injury-induced rush of calcium into cells (Young, 1992). Calcium influx activates key enzymes inside the cell—the caspases and calpain—that break down proteins in the internal cytoskeleton and membrane of the cell (Ray et al., 2003). With the destruction of its structural integrity, the cell dies. Yet, apoptosis of cortical motor neurons can occur after the axons centimeters

November 28, 2014
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - A Silicon Valley venture capitalist is submitting signatures for a ballot initiative that calls for splitting California into six separate states.
In Sacramento County on Tuesday, Tim Draper delivered what he says are 44,000 signatures out of the 1.3 million his campaign says it has collected statewide.
Draper says the state of 38.3 million people has become ungovernable and that there are too many diverse interests to have an effective government.
He wants to divide California into six states called Jefferson, North California, Silicon Valley, Central California, West California and South California. If he submits enough signatures, the measure would appear on the ballot in November 2016.
Critics note that the plan would separate the wealthiest and poorest Californians, potentially creating some of the poorest states in the nation.

Instead of pointing fingers at people who have already failed, look around -- only the truly stubborn want to hang on. The idea of starving people out of Eureka is absolutely absurd. What about the families who are eking out an existence on minimum wage, relying on the food pantries to eat, the people on food stamps who go to the farmers market every week or the seniors who may only eat once a day?
Some of the downtown shop owners may not be failing now, but you are quickly blaming your shrinking income on a defenseless population rather than asking yourselves how you went from being a "have" to a possible "have not."
Perhaps we should put a Band-Aid on the problem by relocating the indigent to Nevada on buses in the middle of the night.
If the poor people offend you so and they aren't leaving, maybe you should relocate, invest in something else, but please don't whine about basic human services that you don't need right now -- but may in the future.
Blaming others is a cheap shot that reduces your own dignity in the eyes of others. It shows how scared and vulnerable you are. Don't be a hater. The times, they are a-changin'. Change with them.

Bailey Hanson of Southern Door goes in for a layup against the defense of Green Bay East's Carlleen Brehmer during the teams' high school girls basketball game Friday night at Southern Door.
- Filed Under
Sparked by a 13-3 third quarter, Southern Door beat Green Bay East, 52-33, in a nonconference high school girls basketball game Friday night in Brussels.
The Eagles held an 11-6 lead after one quarter, but the Red Devils were still down by five at halftime, despite three 3-point baskets from Southern Door's Bailey Baudhuin in the frame.
But Southern Door (4-4) shut down East in the third period while making points at the free-throw line to take a 38-23 lead heading into the final quarter. ...

Vanquish boosts off in October
SEGA has announced a release window for Platinum Games latest title, Vanquish.
The brainchild of Resident Evil creator, Shinji Mikami, Vanquish will storm the high street this October.
The E3 footage of Vanquish shows the game to be crammed with Platinum's trademark frenetic action gameplay they made so famous with the high-scoring Bayonetta.
Vanquish does depart from Bayonetta, by moving to a more Gears of War-style third-person shooter placing humanity's fate in the hands of the player.
The game follows Sam Gideon, an elite agent kitted out with a cutting-edge suit of armour, as he attempts to infiltrate a space station armed with a weapon that has the potential to destroy the human race.
The action uses a combination of shooting from cover and martial arts, sometimes in zero-gravity, as Gideon wades through a horde of robotic enemies to save the planet.
Vanquish will be available for PS3 and Xbox 360.

Nuit and Jeff leaving Khao San Road
- b
- bytepusher Jan 3, 2013 12:54 PM
I'm predicting bigger and better things for them. They have a lot of supporters.
I guess their partners had more clout than they did so the Regulars were the ones that had to go. Too bad.
I kind of got the sense of that happening but was waiting for it to be official... There seemed to be a lot of "mixed" information about Sabai Sabai and her involvement in it, etc.
I am guessing the food won't change much at KSR. Will still be on my list of places to eat when I am in the area. I did have lunch at Sabai Sabai and enjoyed it as well.. Still want to try Sukhothai at the new location. Seems like Jeff and Nuit have been busy!
Was at Sukhothai last night for dinner and Jeff was in the restaurant greeting people and generally running around. Also, I think Nuit's family was there as there was a large party who seemed to know everyone and who kept on going into the kitchen in the back.
Sad to say I never went to the Parliament St location, but was BLOWN away by the food. Not huge portions, but amazing taste and flavours.
Had the spring rolls, tom yum kung, sukhothai pad thai, gaeng masaman and yan munsan. All delicious and will definitely be back.
re: CarNut
Good luck to all of them. I find it strange how the NOW article states that the couple just opened up the second sukhothai, whereas previously, once KSR opened, they oddly kept reinforcing that they were no longer affiliated with Sukhothai. Or maybe it was just a particular chowhounder who kept mentioning it again and again...
Anyways, the food at sukhothai (old and new) has been just as good or better IMO. I think the food at all the places will be fairly consistent, they seemed pretty on-the-ball about that.
re: pakmode
You mean drama in the restaurant when you dined there? I never noticed any.
re: pakmode
Drama in the sense of the 'on-again off-again' relationship with Sukhothai. The poster SZW mentioned above: "once KSR opened, they oddly kept reinforcing that they were no longer affiliated with Sukhothai"
re: pakmode
Oh ok. I only went there to eat and didn't really pay much attention to the online chatter. They were always very nice and friendly in the restaurant. I know both of them from when they first opened on Parliament St.
No big deal, can find them at the new Sukhothai location so that's where I"ll be going. I went a few weeks ago, it's great as always.
Wondering how Sabai Sabai is, I'm sure it's equally good.
re: jlunar
Awesome! Thank you!
re: jlunar
In the former Hernando's space, correct?
And they will have a liquor license,
re: bytepusher
Yep, should be the space. I saw some before photos and chuckled at the interior's clichéd look.
I don't know about liquor, but I recall seeing the bar. I'd assume they would. I believe this second location is halal too.
re: pinstripeprincess
Is the Wellington location open 7 days/week?
re: kwass
i don't know, but the original was not open sundays. hopefully someone else can chime in as i likely won't be seeing them for another week or so.
and yes, the former Hernando's space.
not sure if this will get removed for this comment, but aser, the food is quite different at sabai sabai. there's a couple overlaps, but the strongest difference can be seen at lunch.
Passed by the KSR location yesterday and they had a private event going on earlier with seating starting at 645. Seemed like the usual lineup. I didn't want to wait so went somewhere else.
An associate ended up going there last night as well who is a regular and commented the food is the same as before which is encouraging.
Went into the Wellington Sukhothai when they first opened to see what it was like getting some awesome khao soi and curry without any sort of wait. Verdict: pretty damn good...
re: londonhk
See Elvisahmed post above. That was for a Friday night but I imagine the line up remains the same during the week. The earlier you get there the better..
Has anyone seen information on the status of the Parliament location? Last time I looked inside it was still closed for renovations. It's been two months now and I can't see any significant change , at least from the front door. I really miss it.

#1090 They stand firm against the terror of Muslim fundamentalism
Karima Bennoune, professor of international law at the University of California-Davis School of Law, is telling the stories of women and men risking their lives to counter right-wing fundamentalistm. She asks us to do the same.
Always in her mind is the bravery of her father. In the 1990s the University of Algiers professor faced death threats for his vocal opposition to fundamentalism and terrorism. Although he was forced from his university position and had to flee his apartment, he remained in Algeria, publishing denunciations that kept him in the crosshairs of those he saw as the destroyers of true Islam.
In the TEDxExeter talk she gave in March 2014, she introduced four of the people she interviewed in writing her book, Your Fatwa Does Not Apply Here: Untold Stories from the Fight Against Muslim Fundamentalism. Until his death of a heart attack in 2012, Faizan Peerzada and the Rafi Peer Theatre brought children's theatre to Pakistani audiences in spite of terrorist attacks. Maria Bashir, Afghanistan's only woman prosecutor, fights for the rights of women in spite of threats to her life. Abdirizak Bihi works tirelessly in the Somali-American community of Minneapolis to counter the recruitment efforts of the militant Al Shabaab. The 22-year-old Algerian law student, Amel Zenoune-Zouani, refused the fundamentalists' order for women to halt their studies and was murdered as an example to other young women. That was in 1997. Today Amel's sister Lamia practices law in Algiers.
When she spoke to CBC's Michael Enright in December 2013, Bennoune said the people she interviewed for her book have been abandoned by the west. Their stories are virtually unknown. She wants to change that, with our help.
If we are serious about supporting the struggle for social justice, we need to know and share the stories of these courageous people. They are putting their lives on the line. They give me hope.

If you're feeling down, meet the irrepressible Donnalou Stevens. Her Older Ladies video will rocket your spirits right out of the doldrums. It is no wonder it has gone viral since it was posted on YouTube in early June.
As an artist she creates joy and magic with her colourful art. She says in her Kickstarter video below that when people kept telling her the lyrics of her songs wouldn't leave their heads, she decided she was never going to write another negative song. Her vision for her next project, If I Were Enlightened, is no small potatoes. She says:
I see this campaign in and of itself as an art project, a big collaboration, worldwide, with whoever wants to be a part of it, like a community, a community that stands for kindness, generosity, magic and play and celebration. That's really what I want to create.
The 55-year-old says she feels as if she just got her wings, and it's time to fly. Her Kickstarter fundraiser passed its original goal with time to spare. That means more good times are coming, and we are all invited.
Yee haw! Donnalou Stevens gives me hope.

The case against a man accused of attacking his former girlfriend earlier this year in Stafford County has been sent to a grand jury.
Edgar Alexander Diaz–Urrutia, 40, of Woodbridge is charged with rape. Judge Bruce Strickland certified the charge following a preliminary hearing Thursday in Stafford General District Court.
The victim, a 43-year-old woman, testified that she had broken up with Diaz–Urrutia around October of last year. She said he kept calling and text messaging her until she finally blocked his number.
This angered Diaz–Urrutia, the woman said, and on Feb. 6 he showed up at her home in North Stafford and kept knocking on the door.
At first, she ignored him and went back to bed, but then he started throwing rocks at her window.
The woman said she decided to get dressed and pretend she was on the way to work, hoping that would get him to leave. But when she opened the door, she said Diaz–Urrutia pushed her to the floor, came in and dragged her upstairs to the bedroom.
She said he then threw her on the bed, slapped her in the face, said something about killing her and turned the television up extra loud and raped her.
The woman said she stopped resisting because she was scared. She said he refused to let her leave and told her he hit her because he loved her.
Eventually, the woman said, she was able to get past Diaz–Urrutia and run downstairs. She yelled to him that she had called the police, and he ran out of the home.
Once Diaz–Urrutia left, the woman did call the Sheriff's Office and detectives Patricia Tudor and Chris Cameron began an investigation.
Cameron said Diaz–Urrutia told him initially that he came over and had consensual sex with the woman. He later told the detective that she was in his arms when she suddenly started screaming, "Get out! Get out!"
Asked about the mark on the woman's face, Cameron said Diaz–Urrutia claimed he fell asleep after having sex. When he woke up disoriented, he accidentally hit her.
As is customary in preliminary hearings, defense attorney Travis Tull put on no evidence. Tull convinced Strickland not to certify an accompanying breaking and entering charge.

Planning in Kabul: An Interview With Pietro Calogero
How do you do fieldwork in such difficult conditions?
I think that in any fieldwork, trust is a crucial issue, but this is especially important in a place of elevated violence and uncertainty. I had an advantage because I have known members of the Afghan-Californian community since 1987, so already had connections within a society that relies on character, references and reputation (this is the case in Afghanistan just as much as the U.S.).
But I also made a strategic move: I affiliated with the Engineering Faculty at Kabul University, to teach planning at the same time that I would be researching planning. That made it very easy to be completely transparent about my position and my agenda: both at the transnational and very local scale, I was identified as an academic interested in researching how Kabul was being planned. Becoming an instructor at Kabul University had two other unexpected benefits. First of all, I could compel suspicious agencies to meet with me, because I would arrange site-visits for my students. The municipality was very suspicious about Westerners — and for good reason. But they wanted to argue the case for their style of planning to the next generation of Afghans. The second unexpected benefit of teaching at the local university was the tremendous respect that I got from Afghans at all levels, because I was teaching the next generation.
The Jemal Mena district in southwestern Kabul was shelled flat during the civil war (1992-1996) and is being rebuilt, mostly by Shi'ites. The mosque in the center is one of the major Shi'ite mosques in the city.
What did your research teach you about planning in Kabul?
I arrived in Kabul immediately after working for nine years in the San Francisco Bay Area. My immediate impression was that Kabul was being planned. That reaction clashed sharply with the reactions I got from both Afghans and international aid workers. Both groups seemed to hold an idealized view of how planning worked "in the West," whereas I had seen how chaotic, inconsistent and corrupt the planning of San Francisco is.
So the first thing I learned was what Jennifer Robinson has said so eloquently: Kabul in particular, and cities in the Global South generally, are judged by a double standard against Western cities. Is there a problem with corruption in the planning of Kabul? Yes — but that means it is like American cities, not unlike American cities. Second, I did find a lot of political disruption in Kabul. The city has been occupied by foreign superpowers in two separate decades (1980-1989, 2001-2012), which compromises the sovereignty of the national and municipal regimes, both of which are situated in this capital city.
There are profoundly different expectations about the meaning and methods of planning, from Soviet/Robert Moses-style, command-and-control planning to a more neoliberal, profiteering and generally ineffective form of communicative planning. Trying to sort through this complex situation was challenging. Eventually I settled on political rationalities as the lens to use on this situation. But the choice of that lens was driven by what I observed in the field.
Municipal engineers prepare a plan for southwestern Kabul. Government planners integrate new infrastructure with irregular settlement, preserving as much as possible.
What kind of ethical challenges did you encounter as both a researcher and practitioner working in Kabul?
One of the primary ethical dilemmas was the idea of building my academic career on the backs of extremely poor people. I was pretty blunt about this problem and presented it to Afghans as well as the internationals I worked with. Foreign consultants get paid very well in Kabul — often $250,000 per year — and I find that unconscionable. I tried to get paid as little as I could afford and still be there, on the rationale that I was being paid in career development. As long as we all understood that, I found that interviewees were much more comfortable talking to me.
While teaching at Kabul University, I also had to be very sensitive to the quid pro quo of my role. I had 12 students in the fifth-year architecture class. As an American, I could open doors at the U.N. and other foreign agencies and get my students into a position to request job interviews. I got major, career-starting jobs for four of my 12 students, and we all understood that as fulfillment of one of my core obligations as a foreign instructor.
A professional scribe drafts a legal document for two elders, while a female relative looks on. The sidewalk in front of the Ministry of Education was known as a place to hire scribes before it was walled off to prevent terrorist attacks in 2007.
What lessons that you learned in Kabul can you bring to the U.S.? For example in terms of housing, property ownership or planning?
I learned two important lessons. First, democracy is a means, not an end. If there is any sort of general political claim around the world, it is that people desire government accountability at both the national and the local level. As Americans, we tend to collapse democracy and accountability together as the same thing; in practice, the former is only a strong incentive towards the latter, and technical democracy is no guarantee against regime impunity. This is a problem for poor Afghans in relation to an urban elite in Kabul and for all Afghans in relation to the Americans occupying their city. I have become much more committed to the idea that regimes must be held accountable by any sort of effective means, and I have become alarmed about how ostensible democracy can be subverted and perverted away from promoting accountability. One of the greatest expressions of this failure at the urban level is the persistence of urban informality in democratic societies.
The second lesson is the idea of property rights as human rights. In American jurisprudence, property is typically described as a "bundle of rights" whose inter-relationships are under constant negotiation. In Marxist analysis, these are generally grouped into "use rights" and "exchange rights," with the assumption that "use rights" align implicitly with human rights and the overused buzz-phrase "right to the city." I think we need to be more careful about that analysis. Some of the "exchange rights" of property claims are a means to realistic access to livelihoods. Whereas Marxists might be skeptical about the idea of wealth generation, my skepticism is more about confiscatory wealth generation. So I am very concerned about Hernando de Soto's advocacy of extending the "free" de-regulated market to informal housing, but my concern is that urban villagers retain some right to security of tenure, as well as access to income in the city. To make this argument, I think I need to reject the "use right"/"exchange right" dichotomy and evaluate what it means to call property rights a human right.

LONDON — Transportation officials told The Mirror that because 99% of riders use Oyster fare cards, pre-paid tickets, contactless payment cards or concession tickets instead of currency, bus drivers will no longer accept cash for fare starting this summer. Cash payments cost £24 million a year — the equivalent of $32.4 million — and removing the option would create "significant" savings, Transport for London's Leon Daniels told the paper. However, a member of a transportation advocacy group voiced concerns to The Mirror about the impact of the change on visitors and "vulnerable members of society." For the full story, click here.

A Tour Around Ace Frehley's Bronx
By Katherine Turman
After a dozen-plus years working at Long John Silver's—and more than double that making music, movies, and sundry visual conceptions involving disco balls, balloons, parking lots, and human hamster balls—Flaming Lips leader Wayne Coyne turned 49 in January, effectively rendering the Oklahoma City resident a pop art pirate facing 50.
His psychedelic rock band's latest release, The Flaming Lips and Stardeath and White Dwarfs With Henry Rollins and Peaches Doing the Dark Side of the Moon, serves as a family-style treatment of the Pink Floyd classic released when Coyne was still a pre-teen glomming onto his older brothers' record collections. One recent morning, oft-interrupted by Dazey, a stray yapper adopted into the four-structure compound he shares with his wife, Michelle, Coyne posited and philosophized on both his current mindset and other mile markers along the course of a sonorously singular life and career. Here are some excerpts.Oh, man, when I read obituaries . . . Sometimes you're going through the paper and you just go, "I wonder how old these people are." I often run across people who are just dead for no apparent reason. They were old, and they were only 51. And I'm 49, and so I think, "Wow, I guess if I was in my 20s, I might think being 49 is pretty old." But, you know, once you get there, it doesn't feel like you're at the end of your youth, in a way.

text: I am having a weight issue with my 15 month old english pointer. I used to over feed him in hopes of getting him to put weight on but all that happened was he had more bowel movements.. 7 or 8 times a day. I am under the impression that they should have a bowel movement once or twice a day. Although he seems to be completely healthy he is just really skinny. Doesn't matter if I feed him his recommended amount of food or if I over feed him. The only thing that changes is his bowel movement.. Should I be concerned? How can I get more information on this?

also I noticed you aren't using a widescreen monitor, so everything is going to look very awkward and messed up for you by default =/
Yeah I'm on my laptop because I'm over at my girlfriend's parent's house, so when I get back home it will be fine, but overall without a wide screen it looks fine to me.
The add-on that shows the sunder armour and demoralizing shout, whats that called, i wanna get rid of it because i am a paladin :O
thanks in advance
Smarty I believe.
READ THIS: Posting & Chat Rules
Smarty it is indeed.
About how much additional memory will I need for this.
I'm running Vista with 2 gigs of RAM and by the looks of it I won't be able to handle it without my FPS dropping into the teens.
Thank you for uploading your UI Xav! I think I am going to like it once its working for me but can someone tell me what is making the all the buttons that I cant use go black? I am not sure how to turn it off
What addon send yours TPS for a fight to the chat box?
18mb is *really* small for a UI these days for a full pack like this. I don't think I've been able to get mine that low since I used Nurfed.
@Velendra: Anything under 30 should be fine. Things like Recount, QuestHelper, or Auctioneer are going to eat up A LOT of memory so just disable those before raiding.
Xav, if you don't mind me asking how exactly did you get your Ghost Pulse to pulse when you gain Sword and Board? I'm assuming that I've set everything up correctly to have it display similar to yours but it still does not pulse when I gain the buff. Any help would be great. Thanks.
"If I'm doing a fight and I need more threat... I try harder. If I'm doing a fight and I need my taunts not to miss, then I wear hit." -Veneretio
Apparently there was an error people were having using the curse version of GP, so try this one
Ghost: Pulse : WoWInterface Downloads : Ace: Combat
(Or use the one in my compilation, and my lua settings for GP, too)
By far the most commonly asked question, which is a pity, since it's already answered in this thread!
Tonight if I remember I'll see if I can fraps a very short tutorial of setting up ghost pulse. If I can't get it to work on a fresh "set up", then I'll simply be content with knowing my previously set up lua is the only working one EVER.
Even though the question had be asked before thanks for the reply. I downloaded the addon from the URL you linked and it works perfectly. Again, thanks a ton.
Can you point me where you are getting your Smarty version from? I dont see it on curse and the wowinterface version is pretty old.
how do you move the portrait, charecter picture thingy elsewhere?
Addon: Smarty - Death & Taxes - Now with X360 Avatars (edit profile & add gamertag)
That's smarty, looks like someone picked it up and changed the project. I haven't tried the new version yet, I'll be doing that today/this weekend.
To move the frames, go into the pitbull configuration, Unlock, and move stuff around. Then lock again when done.

Shrimp question
In my many years of peeling, deveining and cooking shrimp, I've never seen what I saw tonight: what is it?
Mixed in with the black intestinal goop was a whitish, firm substance that almost looked like tiny styrofoam balls-- but it was clearly part of the shrimp. Only a couple of the shrimp had this. One had a little bit, and the other a fair amount, running along the whole vein canal
re: la2tokyo
In India at least, Prawn Feed
re: JMF
I've seen that in my shrimp before as well. I've always assumed it was the beginning of the egg sack as well (though I really am not sure of this). It won't turn red when it is cooked, though I think if the shrimp were still alive it would eventually turn pink/red once the eggs become more mature.
re: Chemicalkinetics
No, the OP said "Mixed in with the black intestinal goop"
re: chefj
Yeah, but the intestine track is on the back. The nerve is on the bottom (belly).
re: Chemicalkinetics
In the back as opposed to on the back. Where the Eggs are formed, when mature they are extruded on to the Belly
I've seen it in the shrimp I get here on the NC coast. Not often, but I definitely know what you're describing. Don't know what it is either, but I'm confident it's not any type of roe or fish eggs. Guess I was always afraid to ask what it was. Didn't really want to know. I'll ask my fishmonger next time I see him and report back....
re: Phoebe
It is amazing that you people have confirmed seeing these. I have never seen them.
re: miss_belle
What I've seen is maybe different from what the OP was describing in terms of texture. The white stuff I've found has definitely been "biological" in nature.
And while I like the idea - I'd be surprised if shrimps' mouths are large enough to actually ingest styrofoam but maybe.
re: thimes
Maybe I should have used the word nibble. It was just a thought.:-)
Next time when you remove them put them it some water. If they float the shrimp has been eating Styrofoam. Not that uncommon as the Styrafoam absorbs 'flavors' and the poor shrimp see a piece of the stuff the size of a Beetle and think they've reached food nirvana. God knows there's enough of it floating all over the oceans.
I once had shrimp with white spots on the shell but never this. I'm interested to find out if anyone knows what it is.
re: C. Hamster
OP here... It definitely wasn't styrofoam-- that was just an analogy I used to describe the appearance of the stuff. As Thimes says above-- it was definitely biological in nature. I did clean and eat them, and they were just fine. There was also a lot more of it than I'd expect to see were it immature roe. Still a mystery!
re: newhound
I did see some mentions of Tumors and Growths in Shrimp Fished from near the Deep Water Horizon Site but they seemed to be on the Heads not in the Shrimp its self.
re: newhound
i wonder if it was a form of shrimp parasite?
Mystery solved!!!
JMZ... You were right! I spoke to my fishmonger yesterday and told him about this discussion. They ARE fish eggs. He said he sees it more in the "white" shrimp he gets from Georgia in the early spring, before the shrimp can be harvested here locally. But, it can found in all varieties and all countries of origin. He laughed when I told him I was always afraid to ask... for fear of what it actually was! ;~)
re: Phoebe
I'm glad you posted this topic. I unwrapped some wild shrimp last week and discovered some eggs myself which at first were off-putting until I remembered this thread.
