He will also wonder how you will stay faithful though a long marriage if you fall to temptation before your relationship is off the starting blocks. Make sure you have answers to these questions from BF.
As regards your confession; you can be totally up front and tell him brutally what happened, regarding your need for sex and physical contact; which may be too much for him to handle. Or you can claim that you were drunk to the point of not being able the think straight and the OM took advantage of you. Your 'crime' would then not be so much cheating, but inappropriate excessive consumption of alcohol, which rendered you unable to resist.. I can see confession being the right thing to do, but I fear if you don't bias your account in favor of being near paralytic, you might lose him. Which would be a personal tragedy since you are definitely not lacking in remorse.
I see in the wayward forum confession is quite rightfully deemed the correct approach. However is there allowance for the confession of an ONS being essentially accurate as regards the physical details, but slightly distorted as regard the degree of culpability of the WS. Watered down honesty.
As usual HGF, it will be your decision, but I fear telling him that you cheated because of loneliness and strong physical contact needs will not sit well.
1. Were you his first one as well? First relationship, first/only girl he has ever slept with?
2. You said
if he had skype, I have a feeling this would not have happened.
3. You also wrote:
Hopefully I will have answers soon, because if I ever gave him anything, I wouldn't be able to live with myself.
If I understand correctly, you haven't been with him since this happened? So there's no way you gave him anything?
4. May I ask how drunk were you when you met this other guy and decided to go with him?
Thanks for your answers. I appreciate and admire your strength!
As to how drunk I was... That's irrelivant. I had to much to drink...... Most of the night is blurry. When I think back, it felt like the entire thing (from the time we met till the time I left) lasted all of 2 hours (about as much as I recall) but it was more like 12. I do remember at one point telling him that I had a boyfriend.. some time before the act occurred. But yet it still happened.. If I was capable of saying "I have a boyfriend" I was more then capable of saying "no".
And no, my bf and I haven't slept together since, but if I was to get something that did not present symptoms, or I did not get screened for, and the relationship were to mend, I wouldn't want to give him anything in the future (or anyone else for that matter). I realize our relationship is (if it survives) a long way from being intimate again. But still. Also, upon writing most of that, I was still unsure if I was telling him or not. here was still the thought I should keep my mouth shut. But I've decided 100% to tell him. so that doesn't matter now either.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article

The Christian Advocate was a weekly newspaper published in New York by the Methodist Episcopal Church. It began publication in 1826 and by the mid-1830s had become the largest circulating weekly in America with more than 30,000 subscribers and an estimated 150,000 readers.
The Christian Advocate was a weekly newspaper published in New York by the General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church. It began publication in 1826 when Nathan Bangs was appointed Senior Book Agent by John Dickins, who begin the Methodist Book Concern in 1789. It was formed to provide the fast growing church circuit riders with hymns books for worship, and other literature. By the mid-1830s it had become the largest circulating weekly in America with more than 30,000 subscribers and an estimated 150,000 readers.
(Methodist Episcopal Church - ref https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methodist_Episcopal_Church (Nathan Bangs /John Dickens- ref https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nathan_Bangs (Circuit Riders = https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_rider_(Religious)
The Methodist Book concern would be authorized by the General Conference to publish The Christian Advocate for 147 years. It's location would change as the Methodist Church expanded westward and the Slavery issue divided the church in 1844 and become unitied again to be finally edited in Chicago and printed in Nashville, TN in 1939. It was first a weekly broadsheet, and later a monthly magazine for Methodist families. In the intervening years The Advocate name would also be part of the name of a number of Methodist journals published by local conferences and jurisdictions of the church.
The last chapter of the Christian Advocate magazine was reported in Time Magazine's Religion section (Oct. 11, 1956) "The 1826 prospectus described the Christian Advocate as "an entertaining, instructive and profitable family visitor." This week, in one of the most ambitious ventures in the history of church publishing, the U.S. Methodist Church split the 130-year-old Christian Advocate into two visitors—one entertaining (TOGETHER) and one instructive.
The instructive visitor is for ministers: a trim, digest-sized monthly called The New Christian Advocate, packed with 22 pithy articles under such headings as Church Administration, Architecture & Building, Pastor & Parsonage. Illustrations and features enliven the pages between pastoral shoptalk ranging from "Preaching on Controversial Issues" to "Psychiatry Needs Religion."---
Then in 1959 editors of the The New Christian Advocate decided to change their name back to The Christian Advocate and its format from pocket size to full size with circulation bi-monthly. .
In 1973 due to declining circulation the United Methodist Board of Publishing authorized the replacement of both magazines. with a pocket-sized magazine United Methodists Today, with a supplement for pastors, Today's Ministry.
Thus United Methodists no longer had an official General Conference authorized magazine named The Christian Advocate after the final December 1973 issue was published - marking the end of a 157-year publishing history.

3 ways to make money from spring-cleaning
The best part about spring is the promise of better weather. The worst part is that springtime means spring-cleaning. But take solace in knowing that this year your efforts to get organized can make you money. Here's how:
1. Organize your bookshelf
Go through all the books you own, setting aside anything you haven't read, won't read, and don't want. Purge the wasted space from your bookshelf and all that dust! Then collect the used books and sell them with our sister-brand, ValoreBooks. We'll take textbooks, novels, biographies—basically anything and everything you've got. Shipping is free and price quotes are instant.

Jason Cole of Yahoo Sports reports that the Seattle Seahawks have informed QB Matt Flynn that they're willing to trade him, but "several" teams around the league appear to be under the assumption that they will ultimately release him. This coincides with a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter that mentioned that Flynn's market value "isn't as high as many people think." Flynn found a hard time finding serious interest on the open market last year and wound up interviewing with only the Dolphins and Seahawks before he ultimately signed three-year, $19.5 million contract with Seattle. The recent reports of Russell Wilson being unhappy about his contract aren't going to help Flynn's chances of remaining with the Seahawks for another year. There's still a chance that a team could show interest in trading for Flynn, but if the consensus is that no one's willing to part with any amount of value in return for him, then he figures to be on the chopping block and shopping for another opportunity.

Mariners notebook: Brandon Maurer has been in 'Beast Mode' as a reliever
As a reliever, Brandon Maurer concentrates on just doing, and not preparing
Seattle Times staff reporter
The biggest problem for Brandon Maurer, the starter, was the days he wasn't pitching.
Maurer always had the talent, but he struggled to process all the necessary information in the four days preparing for a start. And his numbers this season underscored that: a 7.52 ERA in seven starts.
"I was just having a tough time getting my head around that," Maurer said.
When the Mariners recalled Maurer from Class AAA Tacoma in June as a reliever, no one thought much of it. Including the Mariners. Manager Lloyd McClendon said Maurer was supposed to stay in the majors for only a few days, but Maurer was too good to send back down. McClendon said Maurer had an instant "wow factor," and he elected to keep Maurer as an eighth reliever (most teams have seven relievers).
Since moving to the bullpen, Maurer has a 1.80 ERA with 27 strikeouts in 25 innings.
"I think it put him in a real nice position, a comfort zone so to speak," McClendon said. "There was just too much to think about when he was in the starting rotation. Too many things going through his mind, and he just couldn't calculate it all. Now, for a lack of a better term, he's in that Beast Mode."
The move simplified what Maurer needed to focus on. He no longer has to worry about game plans or how he was going to attack a lineup in such detail and just focuses on throwing.
"I've been trusting the catcher a lot lately," Maurer said. "Whatever he's putting down, I'm throwing."
He also doesn't have to pace himself, and he's throwing in the high 90s.
Rotation shuffle
The Mariners bumped Felix Hernandez from his scheduled start Wednesday and will start him against the Nationals on Friday.
The Mariners have an off day Thursday so Hernandez will get two extra days of rest. The Mariners haven't announced who will start in Hernandez's place Wednesday, but Erasmo Ramirez and Taijuan Walker are the likely candidates.
No extras
McClendon wanted no part of extra innings in the game Sunday at Boston, so he did something he could only recall doing in spring training: He ordered his outfield in and his infield to spread apart with the bases loaded in the ninth inning of an 8-6 game.
McClendon's bullpen was spent. Either closer Fernando Rodney was going to get out of the jam or the Mariners were going to lose.
"Listen, you just take your shot," McClendon said. "You're on the road, you don't want a tie. You either win it or lose it and go home for the sake of the next seven games."

Keeping busy over the winter
Posted in NatWest CricketForce 2011
What do old cricketers do in the winter when the family is away?
With son leaving home and playing cricket in the sun Down Under, Denby Dale Cricket Club groundsman Stuart, assisted by Terry, had to keep busy this winter.
As the snow fell the two of them slaved away, cutting and welding, keeping their design under wraps.
Then, as the sun came out, so too did the results of their handiwork - a new gate with a magnificent centrepiece of wickets, and a bat and ball and the letters DDCC.
Truly a stunning work of art, all crafted in secret in the pavilion.
With the Dulux offer for the NatWest CricketForce initiative, I ordered some paint. On arrival to pick up the paint at the Dulux Decorator Centre in Huddersfield, with a plentiful supply of brushers, it was assumed I was Yorkshire Cricket Board Cricket Development Manager Steve Archer. The bill was produced, made out to the Cricket Board, County Cricket Ground, Old Trafford, Manchester. If only they paid.
The old gate, which had rotted so badly that it could no longer be opened, was quickly removed and chopped up, and then the new creation was lowered into place. A coat of undercoat was applied and we waited for NatWest CricketForce on Sunday 10th April.
What a fantastic day we had.
The sun shone and young and old turned up to spruce up the field. Paintbrushes were handed out to junior players and Steve Archer, showed his skills as a top quality painter, putting on the gold finish to the new gate whilst discussing the hopes and aspirations for the coming season with the young volunteers.
At the club we are proud of the achievements of the volunteers and hope that the youngsters who slaved away will gain a sense of ownership of the club. So far the comments of villagers and passers-by are very complimentary on this unique design. Thanks to everyone for turning up and special thanks to Steve for coaching the youngsters with his high quality brush strokes.
This year is already a success even before a ball has been bowled.

Atom optics to help detect the imperceptibleOctober 22, 2012 8:43 am | by Lori Keesey | News | Comments
Predicted by Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, the waves occur when massive celestial objects move and disrupt the fabric of space-time. But by the time these waves reach Earth, they are so weak that the planet expands and contracts less than an atom in response. No instrument or observatory has ever directly detected them. A pioneering technology capable of atomic-level precision is now being developed to detect what so far has remained imperceptible.

Boy Scouts Reaffirm Ban on Gays After a Confidential Two-Year Review
After a confidential two-year review, the Boy Scouts of America on Tuesday emphatically reaffirmed its policy of excluding gays, ruling out any changes despite relentless protest campaigns by some critics.
An 11-member special committee, formed discreetly by top Scout leaders in 2010, "came to the conclusion that this policy is absolutely the best policy for the Boy Scouts," the organization' national spokesman, Deron Smith, told The Associated Press.
Smith said the committee, comprised of professional scout executives and adult volunteers, was unanimous in its conclusion — preserving a long-standing policy that was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2000 and has remained controversial ever since.
As a result of the committee's decision, the Scouts' national executive board will take no further action on a recently submitted resolution asking for reconsideration of the membership policy.
The Scouts' chief executive, Bob Mazzuca, contended that most Scout families support the policy, which applies to both leaders and Scouts.
"The vast majority of the parents of youth we serve value their right to ...

Oklahoma center Ben Habern ends playing career
Oklahoma will have to replace center Ben Habern, who ended his playing career because of injuries. (Ronald Martinez/Getty Images)
The anchor of the Oklahoma Sooners offensive line, center Ben Habern, has decided to call it quits because of repeated injuries, head coach Bob Stoops said in a statement today.
Habern won't return to the team after he had offseason neck surgery that fused together two vertebrae. The senior started 30 games for the Sooners and had been named to the 2012 preseason All-Big 12 team.
"Our coaching staff knows this was a difficult decision for Ben," Stoops said in the statement. "Ben has been a consummate leader for our team, both on and off the field. We appreciate the toughness that Ben has displayed, and we wish him the very best as he completes his education at OU."
Habern has had multiple injuries in his career. He missed five games last season with a broken arm and the last two games of 2009 with a broken ankle.Stoops also said receivers Jaz Reynolds, Trey Franks and defensive back Quentin Hayes were reinstated from offseason suspensions. They are only available for preseason practice and their availability going forward is undecided. Oklahoma's season starts September 1 at UTEP.

Exactly What It Says on the Tin, the Hot Teacher is a young and attractive person who pursues a career in education. Because Beauty Equals Goodness, he is almost always also a Cool Teacher, though hentai series like to subvert this by making him evil or a sadist. He, or more likely she, often teaches health or science so the story can bring up human or animal reproduction. Male versions of this character tend towards wearing Stoic Spectacles, whereas female versions usually have a Hot Librarian appeal. While not exactly a teacher, the School Nurse also technically qualifies for this trope, being school staff and usually sharing a similar dynamic with the principal cast. School nurses, of course, tend to go for the Hot Scientist or Hospital Hottie look. It should be noted that a Hot Teacher is not necessarily Hot for Student, though if the show does feature a student-teacher relationship, the elder party is very likely to be this trope. Similarly, many Hot Teachers find that quite a few of their opposite-sex students (or same, we're not picky) — sometimes even the entire student base — are indeed hot for them. Please note that this applies to a character, not simply any hot actor playing a teacher, for the same reason Real Life examples are not listed here. Most actors are "hot" in the first place, so it usually goes unsaid. You can have an attractive teacher without their hotness being a plot element in the work - that would not fall under "Hot Teacher". For other sexy professionals, see Sexy Priest, Good-Looking Privates, Fair Cop etcetera.

Budget 2013: Difficult to cut subsidies in politically-sensitive year, says Rajeev Malik, CLSA
In an interview with ET Now, RajeevMalik, Senior Economist, CLSA, shares his views on economic growth, fiscal deficit and expectation from the Union Budget 2013. Excerpts:
The Indian finance minister has already set a fiscal deficit target of FY14 at about 4.8%. Do you think that he needs to come up with something more than a credible plan which will convince the market that he will be able to achieve his numbers?
Well, that is what the budget is going to be all about as to what exactly is the arithmetic behind it. I certainly do not doubt his intentions, but do not forget that this government has an exceptionally poor track record of delivering on its fiscal promises, and just because he delivers in FY13, which is the year-end now, does not mean he is going to deliver it again, especially since this is probably going to be the last budget before the next general election.
So the details are going to matter a lot more. Hopefully it would not be a paper tiger in the sense that on paper it shows and says what everyone wants to hear. But as the year progresses, the government loses that kind of fiscal discipline that has actually made a meaningful difference over the last six-eight months.
Do you see risk of slippages during FY14, especially in the second half closer to state elections and run-up to national elections?
Well, I do think slippages in the second half of the year will come through even if the broad direction of the fiscal deficit trajectory remains the same. For example, while the indicative number is going to be 4.8% of GDP, I suspect it is going to be closer to 5% or so. Not a big slippage, but it just essentially underscores that in a politically-sensitive year, it is just very-very difficult to cut spending, especially on subsidy front.
Also don't forget that there is a bit of smoke screen going on. While the government has cut fuel related subsidy, its outgo on food subsidy, especially because of the food security bill, is actually going to go up. So overall subsidy reductions are very important, but are not necessarily going to be a cakewalk.
One part will be the borrowing part, the budget which will also impact the bond yields. What are you pencilling in your budget maths on that front?
Our own calculations show it is going to be at the gross level number at 5.97, which is not really very different from what the general word is. This is slightly higher in rupee terms over the prior year, but lower as a percent of GDP. That level of borrowing that would be a record high again underscores how the fiscal adjustment can at best be gradual. One does not need to turn into a fiscal fanatic, but even then a lot of the adjustments that are happening now need to be complimented by other structural initiatives as well.

Youth Entrepreneurship
Youth entrepreneurship opportunities are necessary to keep communities growing, especially in times of high unemployment and economic difficulties. Surveys show most middle and senior high students would prefer to stay in or return to their hometowns and many desire to start their own business. We need new approaches to give youth the opportunity to chart their own destinies within their own communities.
Entrepreneurship education is an effective community strategy to reduce school dropout and youth substance abuse. Even if they don't start a business, youth involved in entrepreneurship programs gain skills and become more innovative and effective employees.MSU Extension provides cutting-edge curriculum and training to volunteers and teachers to deliver programs where youth can develop, practice and master the skills that will assist them in charting their own destiny.

More than 35,000 babies are born with a heart defect. For many, this means a lifetime of surgery and medicine.
First time-doctors are using stem cells to save their smallest patients, and hopefully keep them off medication and out of the O.R.
Analiah runs the Duarte home, literally.
"I try to walk with her and she's like leave me alone," says Johana Duarte, Analiah's Mother.
She was born with one of the most lethal and rare congenital heart defects. It's called Ebstein's anomaly. One of Analiah's heart valves failed to form.
"They're left with this horrible little non-functional, valve that allows blood to slosh back and forth inside their heart," says Redmond Paul Burke, MD, Chief of the Division of Pediatric Cardiovascular Surgery at Miami Children's Hospital.
Cardiovascular surgeon Redmond Burke says it causes hearts to grow four, five, six times larger than normal.
"Analiah was born with a heart that filled her entire chest," explains Dr. Burke.
Previously, surgeons would repair, replace, or close her valve, but that surgery would need to be done over and over as she grows.
"The holy grail for heart valve repair and replacement is a valve that will grow with the child," says Dr. Burke.
Doctors created that valve out of extracellular matrix-a substance extracted from a pig's bladder. The implant acts like a fishnet. It captures stem cells flowing in Analiah's blood stream. The cells attach to the impact, grow around it, and create a new heart valve.
"We could see, for the first time in her life, the valve that we had created opening and closing," says Dr. Burke.
A year later, Analiah's valve is working. As a result, her heart is now a third of the original size and she's now showing her big sis her moves.
Doctor Burke says Analiah's new valve should grow with her throughout her life, so she won't need a transplant, drugs, or more surgery. He also believes this could be used in adults to replace heart valves.
TOPIC: Fixing heart defects in children
BACKGROUND: Congenital heart defects are abnormalities in the heart's structure that are present at birth. About eight out of every 1,000 newborns have congenital heart defects. They happen because of an incomplete or abnormal development of the baby's heart during the early weeks of pregnancy. Some have been associated with genetic disorders, like Down syndrome, but the cause of most congenital heart defects are unknown. (Source: www.kidshealth.org)
SYMPTOMS: Congenital heart defects compromise the heart's ability to pump blood and to deliver oxygen to the tissues of the body. So, they often have telltale signs like:
* an increased rate of breathing or difficulty breathing
* a bluish color to the tongue, lips, and/or nail beds
* poor appetite or difficulty feeding
* abnormal heart murmur
* diminished strength of the baby's pulse
* sweating, especially during feedings
* failure to gain weight (Source: www.kidshealth.org)
EBSTEIN'S ANOMALY: Analiah Duarte had one of the most rare and lethal heart defects, called Ebstein's anomaly. It affects one in 200,000 U.S. births. In Ebstein's anomaly, the tricuspid valve, the valve between the chambers on the right side of the heart, doesn't work properly. Blood leaks back through the valve, making the heart work less efficiently. It can also lead to heart failure or enlargement of the heart. This heart defect occurs early in the development of a baby's heart. It is uncertain what risk factors cause the defect. Environmental and genetic factors are both thought to play a role. A mother's exposures to certain medications, like benzodiazepines or lithium, have been associated with Ebstein's anomaly in children. (Source: www.mayoclinic.com)
NEW TECHNOLOGY: Medical-biomaterial-company CorMatrix Cardiovascular, based in Georgia, had developed an extracellular matrix material, a collagen framework that cells could attach to and hold the organs together. It has the structure, shape, and signaling properties to attract stem cells. "If you put this sub-mucosal tissue anywhere in the body, it functions like a fisherman's net. It captures stem cells flowing through the bloodstream right where you want them. It's like having the framework of a house that can actually recruit all the bricks and wood need to create a perfect house," Redmond Paul Burke, MD, Chief, Division of Pediatric Cardiovascular Surgery at Miami Children's Hospital, was quoted as saying. The stem cells that are captured morph into the tissue needed for the malfunctioning organ to work properly. Previously, doctors would use the material to promote natural growth of human organs. Dr. Burke was the first to use it to fashion a baby's heart valve. Dr. Burke made a valve from the sub-mucosal lining of a pig's intestine. He sewed it in the place where the tricuspid valve would have been. The valve Dr. Burke made was anchored at two points: at the opening and on the other side that allowed the blood to flow into the right ventricle. When the right ventricle contracts, the slit closes and blood is pushed out the pulmonary valve. Doctors believe that the stem cells the matrix captures will help Analiah rebuild her own valve. They say it would eliminate the need for follow-up surgeries usually needed for children with an implanted valve. As the patient's heart grows, surgeons will need to replace the implanted valves with bigger ones. "Time will tell if her own valve has become her own living human valve," Dr. Burke was quoted as saying.

|Route Climbed: East Ridge Date Climbed: November 16th, 2002
|A great winter climb that started from the Monte Cristo TH. Some may balk at calling this a winter climb, being it's only mid Novmeber; but 20 degree temps, 50mph (no exageration) winds, and enough snow to satisfy the abominable snowman, I'd say it counts!

|Fun hike. A little strenuous for me (newbie - 2nd 14er) but we took short breaks whenever we lost our breath and kept plodding along. Views are worth the effort. Played around a bit on the west slope cliffs, but they're still probably a bit out of my league - for now. Not too many folks on the summit and when the clouds moved in everyone split and we had some time alone on the peak. Paid the piper by getting snowed-on on the way down (in August!) but at least it didn't get us wet. Topped off the day with tasty ribs at Breckenridge BBQ in town; highly recommended.

|Sure, it's all 3rd class if you're clever. Just like it's all A1, until you fall. Don't be afraid though, it's such a fun puzzle, and the summit appears so unexpectedly.

|Route Climbed: West Ridge Date Climbed: July 2000
|As I said in the "more info" section, IMHO, this is the ONLY way to do this mountain. The Wheeler (east) ridge is just a long, boring, cattle drive of hikers, if you ask me. The west ridge, on the other hand, offers solitude and a much more challenging (or as Roach says - "sporting" - I love that) option.
Now, so there's no confusion, DON'T get on this ridge if you are expecting a hike. THIS IS NOT A HIKE. The last 1/4 of this ridge consists of 4(?) large, loose rock towers which must be negotiated - and route finding is CRITICAL. Getting off route on this ridge leads you into any of a number of very steep, very VERY loose death-trap gullies. Take care and be sure that the way you are going is absolutely the easiest way before you go. The last tower on the ridge is negotiated by doing an airy class 3-ish pitch for about 30 feet directly up the southwest face. Not hard, but a fall will definately ruin your weekend.
That said, the ridge is phenomenial if you take your time and can hold your own at route finding. If you're one of those who gets off route going to the mailbox, you should probably stay on the east ridge :)

Mecum Auctions' occupation of central Florida wrapped up last weekend after a 10-day bender of sunshine and vehicle sales. Their first event of 2013 tallied 2,610 cars traversing the red carpeted auction block with roughly 70% of those going to new homes. A total of 402 Corvettes (15% of the total docket) were available and 62 of them drew bids of $100,000 or more.

After trademarking Turbo-Jet last fall, it appears that GM has dusted off another legendary term. GM Authority reported late last week that General Motors has recently been given approval to use a pair of different L88 trademarks. The two requests were filed in August and September 2012 respectively and final approval was given on January 15th of this year.
All of the pomp and circumstance that is the
As Barrett-Jackson and five other of the most prestigious collector car auctioneers in the world wrapped up their elaborate events in Scottsdale, Arizona last weekend, the largest collector car auction in the world was just getting started. Though there are differing opinions on the subject, in Mecum Auctions' case, Size Does Matter!
It's become something of a weekend tradition for many folks to watch Sunday Morning on CBS.
This past week, reporter Lee Cowan took the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray for a spin, including a trip down Memory Lane, and the result was a very flattering video about our favorite sports car.
We've taken a look at all of the January auctions so far except one, Mecum's 10 day, 3,000-car uber-auction in Kissimmee, Florida. Their first event of 2013 kicked off Friday, January 18th and runs all the way through next Sunday, January 27th. The Velocity network will have 32 hours of live coverage starting on Wednesday the 23rd.
Next up in our Corvette Enthusiast's Preview of the Scottsdale Auctions, we review the Corvettes available from Gooding and Company.
Gooding & Company focuses on "blue chip" investment cars and usually sets a few world record prices each year in Scottsdale. Gooding is known for selling exceptional quality classic automobiles and producing the highest prices paid for exotic cars at such esteemed venues as Pebble Beach and Amelia Island in addition to Scottsdale and they have the statistics to back up those claims. The average price realized for a car throughout 2012 was $640,635 per car.
Continuing our Corvette Enthusiast's Preview of the Scottsdale Auctions, we next take a look at the Russo and Steele auction which will feature over 40 Corvettes.
Russo & Steele expect to auction 700 cars in their five day event hosted in their impressive spired tents. The Scottsdale 2013 catalog has just been released and it is filled with sports, muscle, hot rods and customs, the types of cars they specialize in. Quality consignments are a major focus and they try hard to offer individual personalized attention as well as a commitment to not let a car get "lost" because of too many consignments.
Barrett-Jackson is the largest and most extravagant of the five major collector car auctions taking place during the week of January 13. Over 1,200 cars including 125 Corvettes will cross the famous auction block with SPEED providing nearly 40 hours of live gavel coverage. Craig Jackson and his team put on more than an auction…they produce an extravaganza not to be missed.

On the Sound Field of a Membrane in an Infinite Baffle
The sound radiation characteristics of a fluid-loaded membrane are calculated analytically and using a finite element model. It is shown that good correlation between the two calculation methods can be achieved, providing the elements are small enough. The model can be applied to electrostatic or other membrane type loudspeakers with a very large back cavity. Although this is seldom possible in practice, this model provides an indication of what the theoretical limit of the bass performance actually is as well as an analytical benchmark for the finite element modeling of fluid-structure coupled problems.

I recently resigned active staff privileges at a CHS owned hospital directly because of their lousy, inefficient, user unfriendly "electronic medical records". The straw that broke this camel's back was the edict that physicians enter their own orders in a computer through an unbelievably complex and inefficient, error prone boondoggle called Computerized Physician Order Entry, CPOE. Hospitals are getting kickbacks (bribes) from our government to force implementation of these foolish programs. Now we are seeing the inevitable result.

Sincerity Lyrics - We Are Defiance
I won't look back.
I've lost it all again.
For the last time
I'll close my eyes,
I'll close my eyes and take a chance.
Is it worth it? Is it worth anything at all
To watch my hopes and dreams in front of me?
Oh God, don't let me fall.
I'm ready,
I'm ready,
I've come to far to give up now.
I'm ready, I'm ready,
To see my feet come off the ground,
I'm ready,
I'm ready,
I've come to far to give up now.
I'm ready,
I'm ready
To see my feet come off the ground.
Lets give it up for the ones who lack all tact,
A toast for those who held me back
'Cause I don't wanna live with regret.
Sincerity is dead.

(Guess they never read Little Red Riding Hood either)Of course a transsexual bondage advocate being made Chair of Governors at an all boys school should be of absolutely no concern to parents any more than having a madam at a house of prostitution holding a similar position at school for their teenage girls. /s

Along the same lines is a phenomenon I saw in HS in the late 70´s. Back then, people´s opinions were given more attention and more legitimacy not in spite of their being different, but because they were different. Nothing a white guy has to say was paid attention to unless a black guy agreed with him. Further, if the minority type said something totally asinine, it was hailed as a great thought. If a white guy said the same thing it was stupid.Now it is far worse because nothing is valid until all manner of strange people agree that it is.

text: 10 Roads That Challenge You You may not realize it, but youre looking for the road. A challenge. If youre ready and your machine is willing, these roads will scratch that itch. Blue Ridge Parkway Virginia/North Carolina/Tennessee By the Road & Track Staff on 4/2/2013 Top Gear did the Blue Ridge Parkway a massive favor by bashing the route for its 45-mph speed limit in Season 16. As a result, the 469-mile path from Northern Virginia to East Tennessee has largely been left alone by the poser crowd. Tackling the parkway from top to bottom is an exercise in endurance, not just for you, but your machine. With vast leaps and drops in altitude, complex decreasing-radius turns, and sections that remain miles from the closest help, the Parkway can be hell on metal. Drop off any of the Parkways numerous side roads and prepare to plummet down forgotten threads of tumbling asphalt that course to the low country below. 10 Roads That Challenge You - Page 3


text: Comrades! Obama's New Slogan: Forward! Print article Send a Tip by Joel B. Pollak 30 Apr 2012 post a comment The Obama campaign's new re-election slogan for 2012 is "Forward." It's related to MSNBC's "Lean Forward," and, of course, to Mao Zedong's "Great Leap Forward," which had the opposite result. The seven-minute video accompanying the release of the new slogan revisits the familiar argument that Barack Obama inherited a mess--and that he is responsible for signs of progress in the economy. We can go forward--or give up all of that progress (such as it is) by putting a Republican back in the White House. Animal Farm isn't really that great since the pigs took over--but you don't want Farmer Brown back, do you? The communist themes of the "forward" slogan are not the first time a member of the Obama team has expressed admiration for Chairman Mao. Former White House communications director Anita Dunn--who has continued to advise the White House after she left in 2009--famously listed Mao as one of her "favorite philosophers." Perhaps President Obama would have done better to take campaign advice from his friend and White House guest, Paul McCartney: as the Beatles once said: "But when you go carryin' pictures of Chairman Mao/You aint' gonna make it with anyone anyhow."
