The strategies and tactics that are used to smuggle one of the couple into and out of the toilet undetected are as important or almost as important as the urination. There are number of types of sex parties: Swinger party/gathering A swinger party or partner-swapping party is a gathering at which individuals or couples in a committed relationship can engage in sexual activities with others as a recreational or social activity. Oral sex pornography frequently features a person performing fellatio, and less frequently cunnilingus. They further argue that setting a discrete line between safe and not-safe activities ideologically denies consenting adults the right to evaluate risks vs rewards for themselves; that some adults will be drawn to certain activities regardless of the risk; and that BDSM play—particularly higher-risk play or edgeplay—should be treated with the same regard as extreme sports, with both respect and the demand that practitioners educate themselves and practice the higher-risk activities to decrease risk. Because the viewing of such films carried a social stigma, they were viewed at brothels, adult movie theaters, stag parties, at home, in private clubs and also at night cinemas. The phrase buttered bun is sometimes used to refer to the owner of the orifice in question. This fetish sometimes originates from childhood memories of needing, or of seeing another needing, to urinate. The concept of lesbian, to differentiate women with a shared sexual orientation, is a 20th-century construct. Pussing: British expression for an activity involving a consenting couple where the male partner watches big tit milfs the woman urinate otherwise undetected in a semi-public place, usually a toilet cubicle at a pub, hotel, restaurant, theatre/cinema, office, club etc. The smotherbox is placed on a stable surface. When the interest in a particular subject is obsessive, the behavior may be described as stalking. สีใหม่สวยๆ ยางหน้าหลังยังดีаёаёўаё№а№€ а№Ђаё"аёЈаё·а№€аёаё‡а№Ђаё"ิมๆ น่าใช้งาน

Re: When did everyone start hating Cena SO much
Because he was pushed as the top face in a time of the internet and smarks. If The Rock never left I'm guaranteeing you he would get the same hate Cena get's. If Hogan was around in the era as the top face he probably will be shot.
He was put over established talent from the Attitude Era and the Attitude Era fans took this as "shoving him down their throats." When, in fact that's how you push a new top guy. You have to have him beat the already established guys. That's why he beat Jericho, Angle, Edge, Triple H in such a short time, they were building him up as the next top face. It was to solidify him as the top guy in the company. Austin didn't have to do that. When Austin began top face, all the 80's star were over in WCW, so they have to establish other guys for him to beat to put him over.
That's why I started to hate Cena, when he was beating all the guys I was use too seeing. But Triple H was the final straw. When he beat Triple H I couldn't stand him anymore. He was winning all the time and the internet and Youtube just fueled by hate of his character. Luckily I realized why he's being pushed and why he wins all the time. He's the top face.
Some fans can't move on from Stone Cold Steve Austin. Their use to the beer-drinking, ass kicking redneck. Now, we have a clean-cut superstar who's about Hustle Loyalty and Respect. He's about do the right thing. He's completely opposite of Stone Cold.

You all may make fun of people with "IT'S STILL REAL TO ME DAMN IT!" for the young kids or marks or whatever, but you guys are even worse than them. You have this deep-seeded legitimate rage for Cena and his fans to the point where you let it affect your day to day life.
Grow up. Seriously.
If you don't understand why John Cena wins all the time, maybe professional wrestling is not for you.

Richmond Hill, NY
Richmond Hill locals can easily get to the outdoors square in the heart of the city thanks to Forest Park, a natural oasis that is also full of sports fields and other manmade amenities. The park's grounds consist of a number of small hills, often called "knob and kettle" terrain. This makes the park perfect for hiking and light mountain biking. The park has a number of bridle paths and horses for rent for a more in-depth exploration of the park. The park also has baseball diamonds, bocce courts, handball courts, and a golf course.
The legacy of museum founder Rufus King lives on in the King Manor Museum, a museum dedicated to preserving the history of Richmond Hill and the surrounding area. The museum aims to educate visitors about local history and tie into the history of the nation as a whole, a mission it fulfills via a number of exhibits and educational efforts. As education is a primary part of the mission, the museum makes sure to reach out to local schools, tailoring programs to official educational standards. The museum also puts on a number of educational events open to the public.
Richmond Hill students are guaranteed a great education thanks to the presence of Richmond Hill High School, a school that is a great asset to the college-bound student. The school provides excellent instruction in every academic subject area, from English to mathematics to art. The school also has a number of extracurricular activities and honors that students may earn, such as admission into the RHHS Key Club or the schools literary club, La Academia Literaria. Athletic pursuits are no stranger to the school, with a large number of sports teams to help students stay as physically strong as their studies keep them mentally agile.

The Six Shooter was a weekly old-time radio program in the USA. James Stewart starred as Britt Ponsett, a drifting cowboy in the final years of the wild west. Episodes ranged from straight western drama to whimsical comedy. A trademark of the show was Stewart's use of whispered narration during tense scenes that created a heightened sense of drama and relief when the situation was resolved.
Each episode opened with the announcer stating: "The man in the saddle is angular and long-legged. His skin is sun-dyed brown. The gun in his holster is gray steel and rainbow mother-of-pearl, its handle unmarked. People call them both "the Six Shooter".

November 23, 2014
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Oklahoma House Speaker T.W. Shannon's decision to enter the race for an open U.S. Senate seat is expected to result in a change in leadership in the Legislature's lower chamber, a move that could shake up negotiations with the governor and the state Senate.
Shannon told his Republican colleagues last week that he wouldn't resign from his post immediately to ensure a smooth transition, but at least three GOP members are working to line up support to replace him in case that does happen. Candidates include Reps. Jeff Hickman, Mike Jackson and Jason Nelson.
The 2014 legislative session begins on Monday, and Shannon is expected to address the 72-member Republican caucus in a closed-door meeting in the morning.
Shannon didn't immediately respond Friday to a request for comment.

30 Anniversary Special ...again
So, I'm finally watching the whole show.
I was almost crying at seeing the brothers perform. You can see that under all the typical family crazyness, under all the jealousy, there was so much love.
When Jermaine sang and Michael stood next to him during I'll be there- it was so sweet. And in one shot before, Jermaine is behind Mike, and looks at him, and his face is saying: My little brother is so amazing.
It really hit it home, that Michael was their little brother (except for Randy- he was his big brother- he never knew life without him)- and that there was so much love.
Amazing to see them together like that.
Comments (22)
Love this special its so good to see the bros together & mj has so much energy .the roof almost came off when the bros came bak on stage.u can go to tvoneonline.com i think thats there website & u can watch it online.

i watched the show tonight on tv one and it brought tears to my eyes. the joy of seeing the jacksons together was wonderful. i know his mother was proud. so many people loved him and he had a heart full of love for so many. Micheal. Elizabeth Taylor and Luther Vandross will surely be missed. One day we will see them all again. Stay strong Mrs. K. Jackson
Just look at the audience when the brothers hit the stage- it was an amazing reaction. It was magic. I got goose bumps, too.
I keep saying that something was up with Mike around 2001- he was often very lethargic, and did not look right to me. There is an interview somewhere on youtube from either before or after that show (I think it was after) and he is really out of it. Maybe it was all from the stress of getting Invincible out, the Sony mess, etc taking it's physical toll. He was a bit heavier than at other times as well- which is not a bad thing at all (and as we discussed in another thread, he did fill out those white pants nicely).
But it was all gone when he hit the stage- he is so amazing. Can you imagine giving what he did with whaterver he was going through? The bending over that night, and covering up the microphone were VERY noticable.
Billy Jean blew me away- I love how you can see him smile as he sets it up - so cute (you see it when he is just about hidden under the fedora).
I just have to add in one more comment here.
I just went back and watched that segment on you tube where all the brothers are performing again. I tell ya, after all those years -- 30 -some years -- as a group, they still had the MAGIC. Seriously, there was something MAGICAL happening on that stage when all the brothers performed together! It STILL gives me goosebumps to watch them all perform on stage together!
As good as the other Motown groups like the Four Tops, the Temptations, and the Miracles were back in their day, there is NO GROUP that could touch the Jackson 5 for sheer talent and showmanship. They were simply ELECTRIC when they were together on stage. It's gotta be that brother connection.
I'm so glad you brought up how not well Michael looked! I was starting to think I was the only one who noticed this! I've spent countless hours watching his concert performances on youtube -- now granted, he was younger then -- but I have to agree with you, he did look downright lethargic. (He performed MUCH better during his "This Is It" rehearsals!) I also thought his dancing wasn't up to par. He just didn't seem his usual self. Something was definitely wrong with him that night. I have a feeling this was during the period where he was having a lot of problems with his back and he was probably on pain meds to get through the show.
And aside from him cupping his microphone way too often (which I assume he felt he needed to do for some reason such as he may have thought there was some issue with the sound system or something), he also bent over way too much during his performance. Way more often than I'd seen him do in any other performance. This is the main reason I think he was having back problems that night.
It brought a tear to my eye too, though, to think that this was the last time the brothers performed together...and then ole stupid Randy had to go and be a smart ass in the middle of the performance! Grrrrrr! Randy: keep your personal crap OFF the stage!!
i tivo it . i am so glad that i did. this si amazing and watching the grown men drooling and going nuts over michael's performance is amazing.
whoa i have got to create a thread regarding the white pants hahahahahahahahahahah
Love u More

Jill it was on TV One Last night and then repeated an hour later check it may be on again soon if not its on youtube
Is it on now or u guys have it taped????
Question??? Are those boys that are sitting behind MJ the Arviso boys?
Love u More
Wanda of Lancaster, PA
i loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee this special and i was so concerned for michael that night. he didn't look well and he seemed somewhat lethargic. but when he hit the stage he was great. why did he cover his mouth during most of his songs and whitney was very scary then,. but his billie jean performance was so freaking great. oh and the performance from shaggy was so freaking sexual. i slowed it down so i could enjoy his pumping and twisting and grinding and just WHEW........
I am watching it right now (11:41 pm on a tuesday night).
I have to watch the brothers closely. I did remember Randy talking about some OPP and MJ looked at him like SEE that is why I wasn't going to invite yall to my anniversary. LOL I love Luthers performance on this show. He got a standing performance. He tore it up. Miss Luther another gone to soon.........
Okay last thing but 98degrees? YIKES!! Where are they now? I love that T-Shirt that Usher had on......
When I watched this the first time it was telecast in 2003 I knew something was wrong with Michael but I couldnt figure out what it was, he just looked pissed off at his brothers, so he was pissed off at Randy or was it both Randy & Jermaine? I think that Randy married Jermaines ex wife or the other way around. Jermaine married Randys ex wife not sure the way it goes , I knew at times they drove Michael crazy. I'm gonna have to check out that youtube and watch it again , but it was funny last night and we have nightly family prayer before bed so last night my hubby turns the T.V. off I said wait wait wait!! he just looks at me, I said " I cant turn off Billie Jean!" he just gives me this look... LOL little did he know it was the 2nd time last night I had seen the 30th anniv special! I only saw the last 15 min and then it repeated so...of course I had to watch it right!
As I read it: Randy was ribbing Jermaine about sleeping with one of his girlfriends (HOW much older is Jermaine than Randy). Hence the OPP (see a couple of posts down) . He said it once, Mike looked over annoyed, he sang it again, Michael walked over, Randy put his arm out like pushing him, and Michael walked off, looking MAD. He mouthed something to Randy- I wish I could lip read. Then he gets all professional again. I think he was afraid Randy would mess up the show. The whole interchange was so surprising, given, how professional the brothers are. I guess Randy was not drilled by Joe like the rest- or he is just the hothead. Still, it was Michael's show- he had every right to be annoyed.
Liza Minelli, by the way, looked 20 years older then than she looks now. Oh the wonders of plastic surgery! And Alleyah and Luther Vandross were still among us! Makes me even sadder.
ok! i never got what that OPP thing was about
My daughter just came over and she wanted to see the part with the brothers performing. So, good MOm that I am, we watched it again.
The OPP thing is so funny. It gets funnier every time I watch it. Michael looks like he wants to kill Randy, while Jackie is cracking up in the background. Mike says something to Randy- oh to have been a bug on that floor that day. At the end, it's all good- Jermaine gives Randy a pat on his butt (all the way at the end, as they take their bows).
ANd all the while: the show must go on. Only now it never will since Michael is gone.
I missed oh I hope they well show it again
Irene: I watched it again tonight. I seriously have a problem (in my defense, I didn't see the whole show last night).
I watched the mini series the other week on VH1 (I think). I recorded it.
ITA! MJ's 30th Anniversary was so AMAZING and it was great to see it again. I finally got a chance to capture it on my DVR. I watched it endlessly last night - especially how MJ TORE UP THE STAGE with Billie Jean and You Rocked My World!! Michael was not only GOD-GIFTED but truly a GIFT-FROM-GOD!!
I'm watching TV ONE - The Jacksons: The American Dream in on tonight and tomorrow, 12/30!.
Michael Joseph Jackson was JUST BORN - He is SOOO CUTE!!
A DEVOTED MJ FAN FOREVER, FOR ALL TIMES, Bloomfield, NJ
OMG- I just read what happened when Randy pushed Mike away. According to what I read Randy got back at Jermaine for (and I don't know this, I just read it) sleeping with one of his girlfriends by singing OPP (other people's pu..y) TWICE. The first time you see Michael just ignore it- the second time he heads over there and Randy pushes him away. That is so funny. Then Mike just goes on.
Whow- interesting family dynamics.
You can see it on youtube around 4:25. Michael looks like he really wants to punch his baby brother- then professionalsims kicks back in.
i know it was so touching to watch them perform together for the last time. i cried like a baby when they performed i'll be there♥ when michael was kneeling down and he was crying and stuff oh it just touched me lol
thanks i totally need to watch the whole thing and i'll be sure to look for jermaines look..

Custom Diabetic Recipe
- cremebrulee Aug 15, 2008 03:00 PM
If you have a regular old recipe for say....cookies. Is there a way to alter the recipe to accomodate for diabetics?
Or do you have to stick witth the already-made diabetic recipes?
For example I have a meringue cookie recipe that is really good and I want to make a special batch for my diabetic friend. Is this possible?
I have found meringue cookies on dlife.com but I don't want to make them, I want to make my cookies. :)
Is there a way?
I cook for both diabetics and celiac patients and I rarely use the "standard" recipes printed for these groups. I also avoid purchasing pre-packaged special dietary products for these people because they're are usually either pretty bad or simply terrible. You may find it difficult to use the more versatile sugar substitutes (Altern, Splenda) in a meringue cookie but there aren't any other sugar substitute products that I know of to work towards the goal you've set and it's worth a try (or a couple of tries if your experimenting) if you're really into the cooking thing. Just don't forget the cream of tartar in the meringue ...
Give this one a shot
As a diabetic, well controlled, I tend to reduce the sugar in any recipe, to help with the carb count. Generally, I don't notice a major difference in the foods ( quick breads, cookies, etc). I'd try reducing the sugar in any recipe.
Again, I'd rather eat the 'orginal' food and manage the rest of my carbs throughout the day. This may not apply to someone who is fragil in managing their diabetes.
re: type2runner
my mother is diabetic, the oral medication variety, and over the years, we've discovered that if i reduce the sugar content i can stick to my original recipes and she can sample in moderation. i don't miss the extra sugar, and judging by the way my coworkers happily eat the excess, i guess they don't either.
re: smalt
smalt is right...most traditional recipes contain more sugar than they need, & cutting back doesn't typically make a noticeable difference in taste or texture.
but i still suggest agave nectar. you use less to begin with since it's sweeter, *and* it has a lower glycemic index than sugar.
re: goodhealthgourmet
ghg: does using agave nectar change the consistency of batters and doughs? is it like the consistency of honey? thx for the education!
re: smalt
it's less viscous/sticky than honey. when you bake with agave there are a couple of adjustments to make...
first, obviously, is to reduce the other liquids [e.g. water, eggs] in the recipe - unfortunately there is no tried & true rule of thumb here, you have to modify each recipe as you go.
second, agave is 25% sweeter than sugar, so you should reduce the amount of agave in the recipe accordingly [at least 25% - or more - most recipes contain more sugar than they need anyway].
third, the high fructose content in agave causes it to brown/burn more quickly than sucrose, so it's a good idea to lower your baking temp by 15-25 degrees F.
and finally, there are different grades & types of agave, so they vary in color & flavor. light agave has the mildest/most neutral flavor, and is obviously the lightest in color. there are also amber & dark syrups, both of which have more complex flavors than the light [sort of like a cross between honey & maple syrup or molasses].
hope that helps!
re: goodhealthgourmet
thanks! now if the weather would cool down so i can play in the kitchen, i'd like to give it a try! perhaps in a marinade, where the browning could be a bonus!
agave nectar is my favorite sweetener, and diabetic-friendly thanks to its low glycemic index. plus, it's sweeter than sugar, so you use less.
one teaspoon of agave nectar = a free food
two teaspoons = ½ carbohydrate exchange
i've actually used it successfully in meringues [but i will warn you that due to the color of the agave syrup, the meringues won't come out pure white]. just replace the sugar in your recipe with 75% as much agave, and give it a shot.
note: when baking with agave it's recommended that you reduce the oven temp by 25 degrees F.
I think it is best to know the kind of meal plan the person uses to keep their diabetes in check (e.g. carb counting, exchange system, etc.), use a nutritional analysis of a serving (which can be done easily using free reliable software available on the internet) to see how the treat fits/doesn't fit into the plan, and assess from there. (e.g. is it too high in carbohydrate? too high in fat?)
For some people with diabetes, it's just fine to eat a "regular" cookie as long as they aren't eaten in excess all in one sitting.
Suggestions would be appreciated for a dinner I'm planning to make for my boyfriend who has type I. I was thinking of roasting some chicken (olive oil, garlic, he avoids lemon...)
and wanted to do a roasted veggie dish (some carrot, bell pepper, green beans...what else?)
Any other ingredients or menu ideas that is low carb and careful of sugar to suggest?
re: epicureous eggplant
You might not have discovered two "pasta" ingredients that are godsends for diabetics.
One is Dreamfields pasta, which is pasta coated with a substance (inulin) that prevents the carbohydrates from being completely absorbed. You only get 5 or so carbs per serving.
The other is shirataki noodles, which are sold packed in water and look like tofu noodles. They come in small bags in the organic foods part of the dairy aisle. They are very low in calories (40 calories per bag) and are good with a sauce because they have very little flavor on their own.
Hope this helps...let us know if you try these new foods.
re: epicureous eggplant
Type 1 diabetics inject insulin, so some amount of carbs are an integral part of their diet. A meal with no carbs will almost inevitably lead to a low blood sugar event later. Add in some sort of starch --- pasta, potatoes, rice, whatever.
re: epicureous eggplant
I've been cooking for my type 1 husband for ten years now. He eats low carb, so he doesn't have to inject so much insulin. We use cauliflower quite a bit as a sub for potatoes. It's good roasted or steamed and then pureed with some butter, salt, pepper and bit of whatever cheese you want to throw in. Zucchini and/or mushrooms might go nicely in your roasted veggie dish and they are both low carb, as well.
re: mamapajama
Hi mamapajama,
My boyfriend is in the same boat, He really tries to monitor what he eats.I've been running low on ideas lately! I love to try to cook, but I find I'm always making the same things for him (chicken salads, chicken stirfrys, omelettes...)
If you don't mind, can you email me so we can exchange more recipes?
That would very much b e appreciated!
Thanks again!
I'm type 2 and I've had great luck with Xylitol from this company. I use it in coffee all day and have even made the Chowhound Clementine cake with it. I think it is the BEST sugar substitute going.

WASHINGTON (AP) - A new AP-GfK poll shows Americans' outlook for the economy has dimmed since earlier this summer. It also shows confidence in President Barack Obama's handling of the economy has slipped, even among fellow Democrats.
But the poll also shows more adults blame former President George W. Bush for the nation's economic woes than Obama.
And the growing pessimism doesn't seem to be taking a toll on Obama's re-election prospects. Nearly half of those surveyed think he should get a second term, about the same level as in June, when the last poll was taken.

If you are an IU student going to school in Bloomington, get ready to pay more to live on campus.
IU's trustees approved a 5% increase Saturday at their meeting here in South Bend.
That means a student in a double room with a typical meal plan will pay $6,600 dollars next year.
That is a $300 increase over the prior cost.
IU says its rates in Bloomington are still lower than all but two big ten schools.

Written by Garden City Mayer Donald T. Brudie Friday, 11 November 2011 00:00
Regrettably, all too often our young people are criticized for the negative behavior of a relative few. I am pleased to let you know that this Halloween was virtually free of vandalism demonstrating that our young people do care about their Village. On behalf of the parents, I thank residents for providing delicious but safe "treats" for the children. A good day was had by all!
Daylight Savings Time ended on Sunday, Nov. 6. Residents are reminded that clocks should have been set back one hour.
This is also a good time to check your smoke and carbon monoxide batteries. In fact, it is recommended that you install new batteries twice a year to be sure they are always working properly. If you do replace your batteries, please be aware that there is a box for recycling batteries in the Business Office at Village Hall.
Veteran's Day, Nov. 11, is the one day each year in which America remembers her sons and daughters who served in the Armed Forces of the United States. It is right that a gratified nation set aside one day a year to recognize and remember these men and women.
On Friday, Nov.11, the William Bradford Turner Post of the American Legion of Garden City will hold a short memorial salute to these Veterans at 11 a.m. at the memorial situated at the Gazebo - War Memorial opposite the Garden City Hotel at Seventh Street. All residents are invited and encouraged to attend these brief ceremonies.
Village offices will be closed on Friday, Nov. 11, in observance of Veterans Day. For your convenience, correspondence for the village may be placed in the "Letter" drop slot at the front door.
There will be no regular garbage or recycling pickup on Veterans Day. The holiday week collection will be as follows:
Western Half of the Village (West of Rockaway Avenue) Monday and Wednesday
Eastern Half of the Village (East of Rockaway Avenue) Tuesday and Thursday
Western Half of the Village (West of Rockaway Avenue) Wednesday, Nov. 16
Eastern Half of the Village (East of Rockaway Avenue) Wednesday, Nov.16
Residents scheduled for recycling on Election Day are asked to put their recyclables out on Friday, Nov. 18. All other recycling days remain the same. Rubbish collection has been rescheduled to Wednesday, November 16.
The next regularly scheduled board of trustees' meeting for the month of November is on Nov.17. I encourage all residents to attend Board of Trustees meetings so as to be thoroughly informed of village issues from a firsthand perspective.

Even so, Ouspenskaya has taught Fedor some piano, and he's learning some music composition during lessons at the Levine School of Music in Washington. He travels there after each school day at either the Russian Embassy School or Hunter Woods Elementary School--his parents switch him each year so he can remain bilingual.
"You have to teach a little kid how to compose. Otherwise they can't be on their own with music," Ouspenskaya said.
"The first time he played, the guys in the back playing percussion were watching and their eyes got real big," said the orchestra's music director for the past 20 years, Tina Anderson.
She also said the kids of the youth orchestra have "fallen in love" with him.
"He takes a bow after each rehearsal and the other kids cheer him," she said. "I think they recognize the gift he has and are just happy to have him. I don't know; he's just a little musician in a child's body."
Maia Zaitzera, Fedor's grandmother, who also plays the violin, called music the main part of life and the occupation for the entire family.
Although she speaks barely any English, Zaitzera loves to teach her grandson the instrument they share.
"This is the meaning of the later years of her life," her daughter Ouspenskaya translates for her.

Surveyor's wheel
A surveyor's wheel, also called a clickwheel, hodometer, waywiser, trundle wheel, measuring wheel or perambulator is a device for measuring distance.
The origins of the surveyor's wheel are connected to the origins of the odometer. While the latter is derived to measure distances travelled by a vehicle, the former is specialized to measure distances. Much of the material on the earliest stages in the development of the hodometer are adequately covered in odometer.
In the 17th century, the surveyor's wheel was re-introduced and used to measure distances. A single wheel is attached to a handle and the device can be pushed or pulled along by a person walking. Early devices were made of wood and may have an iron rim to provide strength. The wheels themselves would be made in the same manner as wagon wheels and often by the same makers. The measuring devices would be made by makers of scientific instruments and the device and handles would be attached to the wheel by them. The device to read the distance travelled would be mounted either near the hub of the wheel or at the top of the handle.
In some cases, double-wheel hodometers were constructed.
Modern surveyor's wheels are constructed primarily of aluminium, with solid or pneumatic tyres on the wheel. Some can fold for transport or storage.
How the surveyor's wheel works[edit]
The surveyor's wheel is marked in fractional increments of revolution from a reference position and its current position can be represented as of a revolution from this reference, where a and b are integers. In the figure on the right, the blue line is the reference starting point. As the wheel turned during measurement, it is shown the wheel sweeps out an angle of radians or turns. In this situation, the fraction, , would be the relevant ratio. The usefulness of this ratio becomes clear after further consideration of the equation for the arc length of a circle.
This equation is
where is the arc length, is the angle, in radians, of the circle swept through and is the radius of the circle. Now, substitute into the arc length equation the conversion from radians to revolutions to obtain the form,
The equation for the circumference of a circle, , can clearly be seen and simplifying gives,
Thus showing that the base unit of measurement of the surveyor's wheel is determined only by the circumference of the wheel attached.
Usage of the surveyor's wheel[edit]
Each revolution of the wheel measures a specific distance, such as a yard, metre or half-rod. Thus counting revolutions with a mechanical device attached to the wheel measures the distance directly.
Surveyor's wheels will provide a measure of good accuracy on a smooth surface, such as pavement. On rough terrain, wheel slippage and bouncing can reduce the accuracy. Soft sandy or muddy soil can also affect the rolling of the wheel. As well, obstacles in the way of the path may have to be accounted for separately. Good surveyors will keep track of any circumstance on the path that can influence the accuracy of the distance measured and either measure that portion with an alternative, such as a surveyor's tape or measuring tape, or make a reasonable estimate of the correction to apply.
Surveyor's wheels are used primarily for lower accuracy surveys. They are often used by road maintenance or underground utility workers and by farmers for fast measures over distances too inconvenient to measure with a surveyor's tape.
The surveyor's wheel measures the distance along a surface, whereas in normal land surveying, distances between points are usually measured horizontally with vertical measurements indicated in differences in elevation. Thus conventionally surveyed distances will be less than those measured by a surveyor's wheel.

One needs to understand consumer needs & issues
Leave your comment
The consumer needs to be made an intrinsic part of the buying process. The market strengthening strategy should also look at expanding markets from traditional to newer territories, says
B.K.Singh, ED, Dalmia Bharat Group
Having served across various verticals as a marketing professional, B. K. Singh is currently serving as the Executive Director – Group Marketing and Communications for the Dalmia Bharat Group. He has earlier led the cement business of the group as Executive Director - Sales and Marketing. He has over 24 years of experience across leading companies in the FMCG Vertical like Asian Paints (I) Ltd, Hindustan Unilever Limited and TI Cycles of India in the consumer durable vertical. He has an engineering degree and is a post graduate in International Business from the Indian Institute of Foreign Trade IIFT, New Delhi, 1987 Batch. A tete-a-tete with B. K. Singh...
What have been your achievements as a marketing professional?
I have an experience of 23 years across different industry verticals like paints, FMCG, consumer durables and now cement. During my stint with Hindustan Lever, I was part of the team which unveiled the Calvin Klein range of fragrances in India in the price range of Rs 1800-2,000, which was a premium pricing segment. My team was involved in the entire conceptualization process for the product including advertising and keeping the targeted consumer profile in view. During my stint with TI Cycles, we brought in high end cycle models like the Bianchi cycles at a cost of Rs 1 lakhs in premium and lifestyle outlets. We repositioned the industry from a basic to premium level. In my stint with Dalmia Bharat Group, I am involved with the chain management of the entire organisation in terms of new identity, brand strategy and companies and associated companies. Here, I am in the process of applying my past experiences in the current organizational thought process.
What have been the challenges faced by you in your professional career?
Since my career has taken me to the lengths and breadths of the country, I have had to deal with a multi lingual and a multi cultural ethos. The challenge also lies in assimilating and integrating the local nuances. One needs to understand consumer needs and issues which require a lot of hard work.
On the work front, there is always the challenge of the new guard versus the old guard. New and contemporary ideas need to be proven to the old guard. Traditional thinking methods need to be challenged through convincing not only peers but also frontline sales persons to board members.
What is the role of strategy in strengthening the market presence of a company?
While implementing a strategy, a few questions need to be answered. One has to understand the role of advertising, packaging and who will be your target customer. Accordingly, one has to allocate resources. One has to try and reposition one's brand continuously and enhance awareness levels across different markets. The consumer needs to be made an intrinsic part of the buying process. The market strengthening strategy should also look at expanding markets from traditional to newer territories.
Do you feel that India can have a commanding presence for cement as a commodity business in the export market?
Given the nature of cement, it is not an attractive export proposition. It is a voluminous and heavy item and not economical. It is suitable for selling only in natural and nearby markets. The cement factories need to be built in the vicinity of the local market. We supply limited quantity of cement to countries like Sri Lanka.

Amy: Cornucopia. What a mellifluous word.Ever suspect that an author has a quirky Word-of-the-Day Calendar? Some really egregious, often sesquipedalian, word appears in the text, perhaps not used in a completely natural way, and perhaps used in a manner egregiously inconsistent with the character's native idiolect. It appears two or three more times in subsequent egregious text, in in-egregious-creasingly unlikely settings and then is never seen again. If it does get used more consistently than that, it overlaps with Author Catchphrase. This is mostly a literary trope. Although there are examples wherever a single author has a distinguishable voice (or is just plain verbose), shows and movies are usually expensive enough to produce that this gets filtered out, not to mention that TV and movie audiences supposedly have all the vocabulary of the average toddler anyhow. Compare this to Perfectly Cromulent Word, where fictitious words are inserted in an attempt to sound smart, Malaproper, where similar-sounding words are used in the place of others and Delusions of Eloquence, where the words do exist but are misused in an attempt to sound smart. Reviewers seem to use this trope en masse. Magic Franchise Word is when this is done by the fans.
Sheldon: Let's make that our word of the day.
Amy: Agreed. And we'll use mellifluous tomorrow.

Associated Press
CAIRO (AP) -- The liberal and youth movements that backed the military's removal of Islamist President Mohammed Morsi are now pushing to ensure their calls for change are heard in the face of the generals' strong grip on the new leadership. At stake is the hope that the Arab world's most populous nation will emerge from more than two years of turmoil as a democracy.
Morsi's removal brought a wave of celebration after millions nationwide joined four days of protests last week demanding his removal. But that is giving way to a harder reality for the democracy advocates who organized the protests --including many of the same movements that led the uprising that toppled autocrat Hosni Mubarak in 2011 then opposed the military's subsequent 17-month rule.
Many are wary of the military's influence and skeptical that it backs their reform agenda and insist they must not become a liberal facade. But they are also under heavy pressure to keep unity within the military-backed leadership: The charged nationalist, pro-army atmosphere that has swept the country has little tolerance for breaking ranks at a time when Islamists continue protests demanding the return of Morsi.
Earlier this week, the head of the military issued a sharply worded statement that reinforced that message, warning political factions against "maneuvering" that holds up progress.
The strategy of the revolutionary groups -- an array of leftist, secular and liberal movements -- is to push hard for figures they trust to take the top spots in the new government being constructed that will run the country, probably until early next year.
So far they seem to be succeeding. Leading reform advocate Mohamed ElBaradei, an iconic figure to some activists, has been named vice president. An economist active in the movements is the new prime minister.
ElBaradei's appointment is "a great revolutionary gain," Mohammed Abdel-Aziz, a leader of Tamarod, the youth activist movement whose anti-Morsi petition campaign led to the protests, wrote on the group's Facebook page. Once the government is formed, the next battle is to "impose the vision of the revolution, more importantly, on the permanent constitution."
On Thursday, the National Salvation Front -- the main grouping of liberal and secular parties, in which ElBaradei is a senior leader -- demanded the Cabinet "be made up from figures who belong to the Jan. 25 Revolution."
Much is on the line for the movements: They have to prove their gambit of supporting the military ouster of the country's first freely elected leader can bring a democracy. When army chief Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi announced on national TV on July 3 that Morsi had been removed, standing with him were ElBaradei and representatives of Tamarod, along with the sole Islamist group backing Morsi's ouster, the Al-Nour Party, and other figures.
Their presence implied that they would have a say in power. But it opened them to charges that longtime proponents of democracy were fomenting a military takeover. Morsi's Islamist supporters say the military's coup has destroyed democracy and is bringing back dictatorship. The United States has expressed concern over the military's move, though it acknowledges the popular support for it. "It's clear that the Egyptian people have spoken," State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said Wednesday.
The liberals' position was made even harder after more than 50 pro-Morsi protesters were killed by troops and police in clashes Monday.
Amr Ezzat, a human rights researcher, said the military will have to respect the voices of the revolutionary movements, which it ignored when it stepped into rule after Mubarak. The street is too primed to rise up again on "a new adventure."
"ElBaradei has a role and influence in what is going on. El-Sissi knows there is opposition out there, which managed to turn things upside down. It must have a representative (in power). This is progress," he said.
If the politicians backslide on democracy promises, activist groups on the ground say they are willing and able to take to the streets again to demand their agenda, which includes social justice, respect for human rights and civil liberties, and greater accountability over government and the military.
Some are already dismayed by the return of military power and the police, which were hated under Mubarak but now are basking in public praise after backing Morsi's ouster.
Sally Toma, a longtime activist, called what has happened "a coup against the revolution."
"We are against the military and the Brotherhood. We struggle against both," she said, adding that a new Tamarod-style canvassing campaign called "Manifesto" to collect popular demands is already in the works. "We are back to square one. Our demands are the same."

Is it normal for people to be so turned off by puree soups?
- Regnes Feb 6, 2010 07:16 PM
I've always been pretty big on soups, purees have long been my favourite style of soup to make. Though whenever I make one, half of my family seems to be morally offended by what I've done, acting as if soups without chunks aren't soup at all.
It just seems strange to me that people would care so much about the texture of a soup, especially when doing a puree seems to enhance the flavour to a certain degree.
It might just be that puree soups are a sort of new concept to my family, though I notice that my Little Brother and Dad are the complainers while my Mom and Older Sister are the praisers, I wonder if it's sort of a man thing then.(Though I am a guy)
Does anybody else seem to run into this problem?
I like pureed soups while my spouse prefers chunky. I have solved this dilemma by using an immersion blender to puree some of the soup while leaving in some chunks. You still get the nice mouth-feel of a smooth pureed soup (especially if beans or potatoes are involved), yet some chunks remain. This keeps us both happy.
re: visciole
I often do end up doing that, though it irritates me to no end. I'm something of a perfectionist when it comes to cooking, and have trouble bringing myself to potentially throw off the balance in terms of ingrediant ratios.
I know it's silly though of course since the stock absorbs the majority of flavour from the solid ingrediants, so at worst the texture is the only thing that might be thrown off to a certain degree.
re: Regnes
Just a thought but, before pureeing, if you transferred half/a third/whatever to another pot could you do two versions to satisfy both preferences (instead of leaving the whole batch partly chunky).
re: scubadoo97
Texture is as important a part of what makes a food good, as is smell, sight and of course taste.
That being said, you also have to realize that food has an emotional context too. People feel differently about food, some are not impressed by much, it's fuel, others love all aspects of it, dining, cooking, reading. There is no normal. Fuel eaters are going to look at food in a very different way from people who like to cook to perfection.
'One man's meat is another man's poison'
I find pureed soups to be completely snore worthy. Food to me is texture and flavor, and even though I'm a total glutton, I have to say that I will turn up my nose at a smooth puree. It's just not worth the calories most of the time, and somehow, psychologically, doesn't seem like it's filling.
re: Vetter
Pureed soups make me want to hurl, as do "cold" soups! YUK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Give me a vegy and meat loaded soup ANY day!!
re: Harters
Was thinking the same thing regarding 'normal'. Now the real question is, will the predominantly US-centric chowhound get 'simples'?
Funny observation, but I totally understand. I make a particular soup that I love- it contains all things orange- sweet potatoes, butternut and acorn squash, and made w/ beef instead of chicken broth, usually w/ the heel of parmesan, w/ everything pureed together at the end. Somehow all the flavors just work really well together for me, and I love it. That being said, getting the texture right is soooo important. If it's off even a tiny bit, I can't eat it because the texture is too much like baby food. Exact same flavor, but the texture can make it completely unappealing. It's easy to fix though, as I just water it down a bit and readjust for seasoning, then I'm back in business. Just funny how the texture can make it a no-go.
I love all types of soups including purees. That said, the ingredient that is pureed makes all the difference. If its an ingredient I don't like (most beans, squash, Brussels sprouts, tomatoes) then I won't like the puree. If I do like the primary ingredient (potatoes, corn, asparagus, broccoli, spinach) then I'll like the puree, although, granted, some of them do strike me as over vegetal.
My problem is with cream soups. I adore them, but my ball and chain can't abide 'em. Needless to say, whenever she's out of town I load up on cream soups. I sincerely hope that doesn't constitute matrimonial infidelity. ;)
it's all been said, but i dated a guy once who had this to say of pureed soups: "i like to chew. i cannot chew this. therefore i do not like this."
[so i got up, chopped up some sausage chunks and tomato, tossed them in his bowl, and shut him up.]
i can respect the baby food/textural thing. out of curiosity, for those of you that don't like pureed soups and/or cold soups, how do you feel about cooked cereals, like oatmeal or cream of wheat, as well as yogurt?
re: Emme
Ooh, I think there's a categorical difference there. Pureed soup is simultaneously savory and smooth textured. Oatmeal and yogurt are most often served sweet. The same would apply to milk shakes and ice cream.
Gravy, greygarious, being a condiment of sorts, has its texturey issues ameliorated by the fact that it's used to top things that have a different texture than the gravy. I think you've hit upon something important -- would you eat gravy with a spoon, from a bowl, as a first course? That may be the same sensation a pureed soup hater experiences! ;)
I cannot abide cold soup (seriously, shudders and yuck). However, I do really love yogurt, especially when it's homemade, but I strongly prefer it with "stuff" in it -- usually fruit or jam, and then something crunchy. Again, I think it's the sweet/savory PLUS the texture thing.
Texture is a major, major issue for me so I sympathize with the pureed soup haters though I'm not one of them! Give me a nice tomato bisque any day!
re: Karl S
Pureed soups do not necessarily have to contain many calories. I make mine with vegetables, stock, a small amount of olive oil, and potatoes or white beans. They are actually packed with good stuff and very low fat.
That being said, if you dislike them, any number or calories is too many.
re: visciole
Your last sentence says it all for me.
Might want to consider your pureed soups with a nice crusty bread or some tortilla chips or even banana chips. The contrast in texture might make those who do not like pureed soups reconsider.
Oftentimes the monotony of the "baby-food" like texture of the soups can be quite a turnoff, but when it's interspersed with something crunchy or chewy it's not so bad.
I think it's simply a matter of personal taste. While I like all sorts of soups, my spouse prefers chunks in his. Pureéd foods are not something he cares for. No whipped potatoes for him either. I mash potatoes the old fashioned way and leave recognisable pieces of potato in them.
re: Kajikit
Pureed soups are GOOD soups! Not weird, just a different cooking style, geesh. Watering down (yuck) a puree does not make it a cream soup, adding cream makes a cream soup.
I grew up with broth type soups. Ramen soups, Vietnamese noodle soups, Korean beef soups, Cantonese soups. I am used to how I can drink a lot of my soup without making me full, so that I can still have room to eat the rest of the meal. I suppose I am in the school of needing to bite on things during the meal, and having pureed soup essentially fills me up without giving me the chance to use my teeth...
Also, tell me if it makes sense. I'm also used to being able to sip and slurp my clear broths piping hot, it's one of the ultimate comfort foods. Somehow, for the times I am served a pureed soup, either in the restaurant or at someone's place, it is either never piping hot or it turns lukewarm very quickly, never giving me the belly-warming satisfaction. It's just never the same.
And then, of course, my partner makes his soups pureed half the time (and the other half, he dices the vegetables), and so I also tend to take my share of it before he blends everything together.
re: EWSflash
I know, I was also surprised to find so much hatred crawling out of the wood work. i love soup of all kinds, could make each meal from soup.
yes I could eat a bowl of gravy. I like my yogurt nicely sour thank you very much, not sweet. And the idea if something crunchy in it , well, that is just ack ack.
And any texture of soup that is served to me not hot is returned to the kitchen to be heated up !
jfood would never have thought pureed soups were anything other than creamy goodness, he really loves them. But reading the responses he needs to keep that in mind when he serves them to friends.
and he thinks that smooth is a texture, he loves soft ice cream, milkshakes, and other smoothie type dishes
I actually love pureed soups. If there's one on the menu, i am likely to order it. My husband finds them strange, though, because of the texture.
I find chunks of things in broth to be really unappealing. A pureed soup looks prettier to me. Since I have issues with tastes and textures of certain vegetables, I really do better with pureed soups.
Some soups I would want chunky though. Soups with meats or noodles shouldn't be pureed. I just like my veggie soups chunky.
But that's what makes horse races.
Never thought about this before but I guess it depends on the ingredients. To me veggie soups would be fine, but not if they contain meat. My dear Mother in Law, who was an excellent cook, always made soup from the Christmas turkey leftovers. Just picture the color for one thing! It was pretty bland but I dutifully ate it with the rest of the clan. I think they all liked it but to me it was "eh".

Jesse Fine Fellowship
Poynter Center for the Study of Ethics and American Institutions announces five Jesse Fine Fellowship recipients, 2014-15
The Poynter Center for the Study of Ethics and American Institutions has announced that five Indiana University Bloomington faculty will receive Jesse Fine Fellowships in Practical and Professional Ethics for 2014-15. Each recipient will receive funding to develop a new course or make major changes to a previous course in professional or practical ethics. The Fellowship is made possible by a gift from Dorothy Fine to the Poynter Center in honor of her husband, IU graduate Jesse Fine. The fellowships support the expansion of ethics education in practical and professional ethics.
The Jesse Fine Fellowship is awarded through a competitive application process. The Poynter Center has been impressed with the quality of submissions during the first two years of the program. The Fine Fellowship will be offered again for 2015-16. Contact firstname.lastname@example.com to be notified when submissions open up.
The five recipients for 2014-15 are:
Mark Bauman
Medical Sciences Department
"Primum Non Nocere: Health Care in the United States"
Bauman will create a course to introduce medical sciences students to a broad view of the health care system, helping them to see their own professional development in a structural context and to be able to think constructively about the ethics of health care as a system. This course will open up a different set of ethical questions than existing offerings that address professional role ethics, and will equip medical students with needed tools to engage in public moral and political debates about the health care system.
Lesa Huber, with LaDonna BlueEye & Amaury de Siquiera
School of Public Health
"'Approved' Doesn't Mean Just: Ethical Considerations in Research and Healthcare with Diverse Populations"
Huber, BlueEye, and de Siquiera will create course modules to be used throughout the School of Public Health curriculum. These modules use a case-based approach to teach future public health workers to dig deeper than regulation and employ genuine critical ethical thinking in dealing with complex issues and vulnerable populations.
Eden Medina
School of Informatics
"Technology and the First Amendment"
Medina will develop a new Masters-level course, drawing on her recent experience earning an MSL from Yale, designed to teach students to think through the ethical issues raised by new technologies within the framework of US law.
K. Anne Pyburn
Department of Anthropology
"Ethics in Anthropological Practice"
Pyburn will re-design a previous course on ethics in archeaology to encompass ethical issues across the four sub-fields of anthropology, offering majors a more comprehensive ethics education in their field.
Nicholas Zautra
Department of the History and Philosophy of Science
"Animal Research Ethics"
Zautra will create a new undergraduate course exploring the ethical questions surrounding animal research ethics. Fulfilling an S&H credit, the course will be interdisciplinary in scope and introduce students to both normative and practical ethics.
About Jesse Fine
Jesse David Fine was born July 20, 1907 in Evansville, Indiana. Fine graduated from Central High School in Evansville and attended Evansville College (now University of Evansville) from 1923-25. He received an AB degree from Indiana University in 1928 and received his law degree in 1930 from the Indiana University School of Law.
Fine practiced law in Evansville from 1930 to 1936. Fine and his two brothers owned Premier Theaters in Evansville, which at one time included nine theaters. By the late 1950s and early 1960s the brothers had sold or closed a number of the theaters, selling the last theaters around 1966.
In 1953 the Fine brothers started WFIE television station in Evansville. They sold the station in 1956. They opened and later sold other stations in St. Joseph and Jefferson City, Missouri.
Fine married Dorothy Seegal in 1958 in Sarasota, Florida. Dorothy and Jesse retired to Florida in 1966. Once he arrived, Fine partnered with two other broadcasters and established a new radio station in Ft. Lauderdale, which was later sold. Fine played golf and did community and charitable work. He wrote the IU Alumni Association in 1978 that he and Dorothy traveled "quite a bit."
Fine died Nov. 11, 1985 in Hollywood, Florida. Once Dorothy Fine became involved with Indiana University, she wanted to create a fellowship in practical and professional ethics in her husband's name. She died in 2010. This fellowship is the result of her generosity.

133120 / 1970 Mercury Cougar Eliminator Boss 302
For more information on this vehicle visit http://tinyurl.com/9fpv8je
Ready for a different kind of pony car? Take a close look at this pristine
1970 Mercury Cougar Eliminator. Fresh out of a comprehensive restoration,
this cat has and aggressive demeanor and plenty of power to back it up.
Restored to factory specifications, the body panels are straight in true in
every way. A coat of Ford's code N Pastel Blue covers the body, accented by
the black body-length stripes courtesy of the Eliminator package. While the
color may look white, there is a subtle blue tint that is guaranteed to
make this Mercury stand out in the crowd. Panel fitment is also far
superior to anything that left Ford's Dearborn plant in 1970.
Other pieces of the Eliminator package include a front chin spoiler,
blacked-out grilled, hood scoop, an air foil wing and discrete "Eliminator"
decals. The glass appears to be original as does the stainless trim around
it but both are in excellent condition overall. With its race-friendly
look, this is very clearly no common Cougar.
Under the hood, a familiar 290hp Boss 302 V8 provides more than enough
motivation to push this cat around town. From the properly decaled single
snorkel air cleaner to the date-code correct block, everything about the
powerplant looks as it did when it left the factory. The engine fires
immediately, idles well and has a menacing snarl to warn other drivers
exactly what is beside.
Beneath the car, a nicely detailed undercarriage consists of a factory
chassis with factory-correct overspray gracing the rock solid floor fans.
In the center, a Hurst-equipped Toploader 4-speed takes care of gear
selection while a nodular Ford nine-inch differential with 3.91 gears puts
the power the road. Steering is manual but braking is power assisted with
discs in the front and drums out back. The chassis meets the road through
Goodyear Polyglas tires wrapped around steel wheels topped with dog-dish
hubcaps and chrome beauty rings.
Between the doors, a Medium Blue interior is simple, comfortable and
functional. The hi-back bucket seats are wrapped in Comfortweave vinyl and
face a factory dashboard that houses the original instrumentation plus
climate controls and an AM/FM stereo. With the exception of the aluminum
Hurst shift handle, there are no frills to be found here. Behind the rear
seat, the trunk features a correct mat, jack and spare tire.
Documentation for this Cougar is strong with an original build sheet,
dealer invoice and several records that spell out the car's full history.
There is also a Marti Report that covers everything down to production
In this form, it's easy to imagine the Cougar as less of a sibling and more
of a rival to the Mustang.
With the Boss 302 and slick shifting Toploader, this cat offers all the fun
in a unique shell. Call, click or visit http://rkmotorscharlotte.com for

drive and enjoy every day. The Brothers Collection is home to several
rare Mercury cats, this is one of the favorites!
