Plastics in the Environment
Allan L. Griff will be giving a short course on Plastics in the Environment for the U of California on the Berkeley campus, five 3-hr evenings starting November 15. Allan will provide the well-known (by now) explanations of why plastics are beneficial to the environment (light weight, sanitary, etc) and try to dispel some of the misunderstandings and plastophobia that this area has become (in)famous for. But Allan will also explore the reasons why people are so ready to accept an antiplastic mindset -- fear of chemicals and big chemical companies, reluctance to accept impartial science, and more that he hopes to elicit from the attendees.

Contentious elections are the founders' legacy, explains Bill White, the Theresa A. and Lawrence C. Salameno Director of Educational Program Development.
Podcast (audio): Download (2.9MB)
Lloyd Dobyns: Hi, welcome to Colonial Williamsburg: Past & Present on history.org. This is "Behind the Scenes" where you meet the people who work here. That's my job. I'm Lloyd Dobyns, and mostly I ask questions. The edgy tone of today's presidential elections might seem like a manifestation of modern times, but the bitter election of 1800 set a precedent for American politics. This season's first Electronic Field Trip, "The Will of the People," brings to life this moment in American history, reminding us how often the past is replayed in the present.
Bill White: I'm Bill White, I'm the Theresa A. and Lawrence C. Salameno Director of Educational Program Development. I'm responsible for Colonial Williamsburg's Education Outreach initiative.
Lloyd: I like the idea of this particular field trip because so many people I talk to say, "Isn't it a shame that politics is so bitter now?â€
Bill: And this, we're contentious people, we've always been a contentious people. We're always at each other's throats, it seems, about important issues. These political campaigns, these debates, are the way that we as a country get together and argue out some important issues for ourselves. The election of 1800 was probably the first of those. You've got to remember that, of course, Washington is the first president, and he's pretty much just elected by acclamation.
Lloyd: He could have been king.
Bill: He's the great man. He is the great American. Of course he's going to be elected the first time and the second time by wide margins. But, by the time you get to that third election, there's a little bit more competition. So John Adams doesn't win by the wide margin that a Washington does. The politics that had started in the Washington administration between Jefferson and the Jeffersonians and Hamilton and the Hamiltonians who then become the Federalists, starts to heat up big time over a series of issues that are absolutely critical to the country.
Lloyd: The people have forgotten, if indeed they ever knew, how personal the elections used to be. I mean, they weren't arguing over politics in principle only, they were arguing over quite personal things.
Bill: Well, yeah. But personal in a very impersonal kind of way. Adams, Washington and Adams and Jefferson – all through the 19th century, none of these presidential candidates actually go out and stump for themselves. It's actually unseemly. If it appears that you actually want the office of president, then you probably shouldn't have it.
Lloyd: You know, that may not be a bad idea.
Bill: So, it's their agents then who are out there politicking for them. It becomes very, very nasty. So in 1800, let's see, in 1800 you have the Federalists charging that Thomas Jefferson is an anti-Christian. He had helped foster the resolution for religious freedom in Virginia, so he was anti-Christianity was going to take all the New England Bibles away from all those folks up North. That he was a radical. Remember also that the French Revolution's going on at the time. So, and he supported the French Revolution, which had become a very bloody affair with guillotines and the whole nine yards. So they're saying he likes the French Revolution, he's going to bring that kind of violence and turmoil here to the American shores. Then they start to drag out stuff like accusing him of having the affair with Sally Hemmings, his slave. That's when that story pops out for the first time. They accuse him of being a coward during the Revolution.
On the flip side of the coin, the Jeffersonian republicans, or the democratic republicans as Jefferson calls them, they accuse the Federalists of being monarchists, that they want to bring the monarchy back to America. They want to overturn the Revolution and bring us to a monarch. So the Federalists were very much wanted to have a strong executive, and at one point, Hamiliton had talked about well maybe an elected kingship is a good thing, but boy, the Jeffersonian folks, they pick that up and they spin it two or three times and they're accusing John Adams of being a monarchist. Here's one of the great figures of the Revolution, being a monarchist. So they start throwing these things back and forth, and it's really personal. You've got to remember that Jefferson and Adams, after the election of 1800, Jefferson and Adams don't speak to each other for 10, 15, probably almost 20 years.
Lloyd: Is that the one where Adams refused to attend Jefferson's inauguration? And left town before …
Bill: He leaves town before the inauguration, that's right.
Lloyd: That's angry.
Bill: That's angry, that's angry. But at the same time, Jefferson's inaugural speech, "We are all republicans, we are all federalists, we are all the American people. Let's draw ourselves back together again. That's what's remarkable about Americans, is that election of 1800 represents the first opportunity for Americans to have this really contentious, very divisive debate in our society. In the end, turn back around, peacefully transfer the power in the country from one political party to the next, and pull back together as an American people.
Lloyd: Elections were different then. Vice presidents ran quite independently.
Bill: Well, and this is the other big crisis. This is, the election of 1800 causes a constitutional crisis. Because the notion was that so you would elect these electors who went to the Electoral College, and they'd cast their vote. The individual who got the largest number of votes would be the president, and then the runner up would be the vice president. What happens is the electors cast their ballots, and Jefferson and Aaron Burr are tied. Well what happens to a tied election in our constitutional system, what's supposed to happen is that the election then goes to the House of Representatives to be decided. Well the federalists are controlling the House of Representatives. They don't have enough votes, though to be able to actually elect a federalist candidate. But they keep this thing tied up, day after day after day. Voting and the voting turns out exactly the same. Those two candidates are tied. They're tied, they're tied, they're tied.
Finally, in the end, Alexander Hamilton throws his support behind Jefferson because he hates Aaron Burr more, basically. Then finally, they break the impasse. But congress will come back right after that, and they'll pass the resolution, the amendment to the constitution that says, ok, we're going to have two separate candidates and two votes in the electoral college, so we'll have candidates who are running for the president, we'll have candidates who are running for vice president, and we'll take two separate votes so we don't have this problem.
Lloyd: The way we do it, I'm amazed we get it done at all.
Bill: Well a lot of people think that, a lot of people think that somewhere written in the constitution or written in the law somewhere there's a bunch of laws that tell us how we're supposed to do these things. But that's not the fact at all. We've been making these rules up as we go along. They were making them up in the election of 1800. We're still, we're still making them up today. There's a lot of discussion today about what should be next. How should we be selecting our candidates to do a better job of it? So, it probably isn't the best solution, but it also does one other thing that that that early American leaders were concerned about. Most of these guys in 1800 are really worried about the common men and women who are out in the general public. They don't believe that they're really qualified to make those decisions.
Lloyd: The democratic mob.
Bill: It really needs a democratic mob. And it's very fickle. We can't really trust those common people to make those decisions. That's why we end up with the representative system, is because it allows them to, it allows us then to elect people who are smarter than us, was the original idea, was to elect people smarter than us to help us make these decisions. Now a lot of folks today are not really sure it worked out that way, but that's their thinking at the time, they're looking for ways to make sure that the brightest, the smartest, the best are actually moved ahead. So originally, the House of Representatives is elected by the people. The senate is appointed by state legislators, and the president is elected by an electoral college that is always one step removed from the general public, from that mob of democracy.
What is clear is that the federalists want to have a stronger central government. They believe that having a good strong executive and having a lot of federal control over the states, the federal government exercising control over the states will build the nation and make it stronger for commerce, for all kinds of reasons. For defense. And then you have the Jeffersonian republicans who are saying, "No, no, no, no, no, no. If you do that, then you're going to suck all the authority and the power away from the states, and away from individuals and their communities. And that's where government actually happens. It's down here in the local level, in those communities. And you don't want to squash that, what we want to do is nurture and encourage that. The federal government should help that. There are certain things that are assigned to the federal government, like a common defense, but you know, you shouldn't be usurping the power of the individual states or of the local communities. So, it's a very different picture in how you should govern.
Lloyd: So, the Electronic Field Trip, "The Will of the People,†shows you the election of the 1800s, and gives you some understanding that political dislike between parties, people, is not a new idea.
Bill: Well it's not a new idea. It shows you just how, it shows kids, just how angry and contentious that discussion was, that debate was. And also makes the point that it is how we as an American people, hammer out the issues that are important to us. We do it in these very public, political spheres.

Huawei MediaPad 7 VogueCompare5 reviewThe Huawei MediaPad 7 Vogue is a "call-enabled" tablet. It has a 7 inch screen with a resolution of 1024 x 600. Under the hood is a quad-core 1.2GHz processor and a 16-core GPU. A 4100mAh battery keeps the lights on and Huawei's proprietary power saving technology allows users to watch 4 movies in HD or talk for 20 hours on one charge. The antenna on the unit surpasses U.S. and European carrier standards and Emotion UI 1.5 runs on top of Android 4.1. This is not an LTE model, offering HSPA+ connectivity as fast as 42Mbps with Wi-Fi connectivity also supported.+ View Specs

The handset is powered by the aforementioned Sailfish OS, which Jolla promises will feature compatibility with Android apps, and a 2100mAh user-replaceable cell. Last, but not least, the display is a rather underwhelming 4.5-inch qHD panel, meaning a resolution of 960x540.+ View Specs

BlackBerry Z30Compare7.5 reviewThe BlackBerry Z30 includes a 5-inch 720p (295 ppi) AMOLED display, the largest of any BB phone, and also the now aging aged Snapdragon S4 Pro with the four CPUs running at 1.7GHz. Blackberry is yet to shed light on whether we're talking about a dual-core or quad-core, though the less potent version seems likely. In terms of memory, you'll find 2GB RAM, with just 16GB of internal storage, though you can expand that via a microSD card. BlackBerry claims that the battery on the Z30, at 2880mAh, coupled with software optimizations, offers 50% more battery life than its current competitors, though manufactures have a pretty shady track record when it comes to this particular bit of hardware, and its actual capabilities. Turning to the camera on the Z30, an increasingly relevant component of the entire package a smartphone offers lately, we're welcomed by a 8MP rear camera with Auto Focus, 5x digital zoom and a an LED flash. The large five element lens with an aperture of f/2.2 mean that the unit will capture a lot of light, resulting in great shots. The snapper, as is to be expected, is capable of 1080p video capture, and comes with what BB chose to call "Time Shift" – a feature that basically allows you to choose and adjust faces from several snaps, so say goodbye to ill-timed shots. In terms of connectivity and extras, the Z30 is anything but lacking – you get GPS, 4G LTE connectivity and Wi-Fi, of course, but also Bluetooth 4.0 LE (low energy), NFC, and the rather nice perk that is a microHDMI port.+ View Specs

Asus PadFone Infinity 2CompareA 5" 1080x1920 pixels IPS-LCD display is on the ASUS PadFone Infinity 2, and a 2.2 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 is running the show, aided by 2 GB of RAM, and backed by a 2400 mAh battery. The 13 MP f/2.0 aperture camera stays, but Asus is using what it calls PixelMaster technology to bin the information from four pixels together into one decked out 3 MP image, similar to Nokia's PureView Phase 1 technology. Storage gets shrunk to either 16 GB or 32 GB models, instead of 32 GB/64 GB of the original, but that's because you get a memory card slot for expansion now. The phone supports European/Asian networks mainly, with LTE 800/1800/2600 bands, and will arrive with Android 4.2.2 onboard in Titanium Black or Platinum White chassis colors.+ View Specs

Apple iPhone 5sCompare9.3 reviewThe iPhone 5s is not a radical departure in design for Apple, save for one very important feature. No, we don't mean the new Space Gray and Gold colors. We have in mind the home button that has been on iPhones from day one, is now turned into a fingerprint scanner dubbed Touch ID. It lets you unlock the phone and authorize purchases, safely storing your fingerprints in the A7 processor itself, out of the reach for anyone but a few default iOS 7 apps. This A7 processor debuts on the iPhone 5s as the first 64-bit mobile chipset in use on a commercial device, utilized by the latest flat and minimalistic iOS 7 that has been rewritten to take advantage of the 64-bit system. It sports a dedicated M7 co-processor for always-on motion sensing, too. The iSight camera stayed 8 MP, but is much improved, with larger pixels, wider aperture, and the ability to shoot slow motion videos, not to mention the dual two-tone LED flash on the back that strives for natural skin color representation.+ View Specs

Apple iPhone 5cCompare9 reviewThe iPhone 5c replaces the iPhone 5 in the Apple stable, inheriting its internals, like the A6 processor, 4" screen and 8 MP camera, but wraps them up in "unapologetically plastic," candy chassis that can be mixed and matched in many colors with the new slotted cases. It is Apple's first take at the upper mid-range concept, and runs the newest iOS 7 without a hitch.+ View Specs

Arsenal defender Per Mertesacker believes Bayern Munich are without equal but is still backing the Gunners to progress from the Champions League tie between the teams, the Guardian has reported.
Bayern are currently 16 points clear of the Bundesliga and have not lost domestically all season, but were beaten by Arsenal in the second leg of last year's meeting between the sides in the same competition.
Arsenal won 2-0 on the night but a 3-1 defeat at the Emirates Stadium in the first encounter saw Arsene Wenger's side eliminated while Bayern, under Jupp Heynckes, went on to claim the trophy by beating Borussia Dortmund in the final as part of an unprecedented treble. Bayern also won the German Cup and league title before Pep Guardiola replaced Heynckes.
"Bayern are untouchable at the moment, both in the Bundesliga and in Europe," Mertesacker told the German press. "The only thing that makes me positive is that we beat them in Munich last year. That allows us to go into the game with a certain degree of faith. We're going to give it our best.
"They're a little bit better in every department under Guardiola. They've set a new benchmark.
"We're going to have to get a different result this time because the 3-1 defeat practically decided the tie last year. That was the decisive game."

Penis haters
Agreed; don't click on the link if you don't like it. Of course maybe there is the possibility that you just like to bitch and complain. On another note I "almost" feel bad for the guy not coming.

Funny comments
The comments on this one are pretty amusing. Peter- do what you want to do. Me, I'm going to look for an En gallery that I haven't spent a lot of time with yet.

Beautiful penis.
, United States, Posted
Hegre is my hero; well worth my money. I am looking forward to the next dairng thing. Excellent work. Love it. May be I am gay after all. I must have been missing something important. The negative reactions are so predictable.
, France, Posted
Best of both worlds
How about a gallery featuring a beautiful transsexual so we can see a beautiful penis and sexy breasts on the same body?
, United States, Posted
Chaz, I am neither bi nor gay. I have had sex with more women than most men on this site (>50) from Brazil to Spain to Japan, and all around the world. I am 30 years old, 6 foot 3 inches tall, have a moderately large penis, and am considered by many to be quite attractive. I was offering a little humor in my original post about "homoerotic senses being enlightened" solely to propose a plausible theory on why a picture of the male penis is so damaging and offensive to some members of this site. In my experience, it is the people who are most offended by pictures such as this who are unknowingly bi or gay. Any person who is open-minded enough to enjoy the pictures for their artistic value, rather than their sexual value certainnly does not fall into this group. If I don't want to see a mans penis being massaged I will do as DrSeymour suggest and not click the icon.
, United States, Posted
I'm really tired of those comments of guys who feel their day "spoiled" and seem terrified and traumatized by seeing one nude man in a thousand nude women. In agreement with DrSeymour I take the liberty to repeat his advice: DO NOT CLICK ON THE ICON! Good luck and have a nice day...
, Switzerland, Posted
My eyes! lol
Please no offense to my fellow commenters, but surely if you aren't into this, then don't click on the little icon which shows exactly what is going to be presented? Why click, then feel compelled to convince everyone of your displeasure? I'm not into guys, but these images are quite powerful and tell me a great deal about the skills of the photographer, quite separate to the wonderful eroticism of my preferred female models.

The series with the naked girl giving him an erotic massage was good. This? Not so much.

Shaq, I'm taking it that you're either a bi or gay male and these type of photo shoots turn you on. I myself am a straight male who has never been sexually attracted to men, and never will be, no matter how many images of nude men you show to me. I don't have any "fear" of seeing men in the nude. Nothing inside of me needs to "wake up" or be "enlightened" in this regard. The reason why I pay money to join this site is because of the high quality images of nude WOMEN. If I got turned on by seeing pictures of nude men, I'd join a website for gays...not this one.

If you don't like todays
gallery just go to 2002 March 17 and punch on Luba on the Beach a great one. About 10 crappy galleries and a zillion great ones.
, United States, Posted
I think...
These female/male one on one sessions are great. My wife regularly gets me off in this way and I always enjoy it and I can fantasize a repeat of the same event through these images. Thank you!
, United States, Posted
PLEASE Petter, we have been over this. This kind of material is not suitable for the vast majority of your audience here. Please. No more. Beautiful and erotic as it no doubt is for some, it's not for us. Thanks
, United Kingdom, Posted
This is terrific.
I just wish we could see "the end" of this set. Absolutely erotic.
, United States, Posted
I liked this as a video, but to me the image set of this doesn't have much added value. I don't mind the male nude, but I think it would be nicer to see them pose together with the female model, like the photoshoot of Silvia.
, Belgium, Posted
I thought maybe in repeat he may orgasm but looks same as other ( power to Penis Gallery ) but great pictures anyway, wish she was nude too though
, United States, Posted
pointless to me
Unfortunately this gallery dues nothing for me but to make me feel a little inadequate with viewing this large penis. Secondly I fail to see the point of this photo set where there is no natural ending to all this stimulation, I would have lost it by frame 10!! Love the masseuse series but I'm not a fan of the photos they seem pointless to me. Keep up the good work though, can't wait for the massage updates. Sandy

spoiled my day. Don't. Do. That. Again. Ever.
, Netherlands, Posted
Another great photo shoot, Hegre. Your use of skin-tone contrast always works very well. I can only imagine though how many members will threaten to quit the site for fear of their subconscious homoerotic senses being enlightened a bit, thus awakening an attraction they hope not to recognize. I suppose we'll soon see in the space above...I say let them leave. Your true fans will always stick around.
, United States, Posted
Mr. Hegre, with all due respect, please create a different website for this type of stuff.

JOHNSTON COUNTY - A surprising layoff Thursday at Sundowner Trailers has left many employees upset. Now they are looking for jobs and answers.
"It was odd real odd I was shocked, still in shock over it...and mad," one employee said after suddenly being laid off, just before his shift ended.
County officials said this is not the first the company have laid off employees.
"We have had layoffs in our county before from rock crushers to sundowner and have always survived."
Former employees were encouraged to file for unemployment. However, there is another program called "Big 5," a social service that gives money to displaced workers.
"Big five does have a dislocated workers program. I sitting on that board that would be one suggestion."
KXII tried to contact Sundowner management about the layoffs. They issued a statement, saying slow spring sales forced the company to release 67 employees, or about 13% of their workforce.
Some people fear there could be more layoffs in the near future.
