This kind of nutritious meal helped survive many starving families during wars or in the spring, when the food supply would grow scarce. I don't think anybody is cooking this kind of stuff now... ammer Jan 26, 2009, 10:16am #5 The word sounds like buja or bÓja, I have a picture, and the picture is showing people cutting up chicken, on the picture it said making booyahammer Polonius3 Threads: 1,146Posts: 7,061Joined: Apr 11, 2008 ♂ Jan 28, 2009, 06:54pm #6 Maybe bulion? ammer Jan 30, 2009, 06:47pm #7 I have a National news which the Polish Legion of American Veterans (P.L.A.V.) puts out, and on the back page, there is an artical that mentions these veterans making Booyah.

BaBarumba Nov 12, 2009, 07:30pm #10 Your on the right track. In the area of the upper mid-west USA where I live Booyah refers to a gathering of people who all bring something for the pot. Tough to do now because of health inspectors. Often refers to a pot of stew like mixture of different types of wild game and what ever else you can find in the refrigerator, usually vegetables. Bill CindyWisconsin Dec 19, 2009, 09:39pm #11 Ammer, this is a regional dish. It's mainly popular in the Fox River Valley area, Green Bay and Appleton, Wisconsin. I've been reading that it's Belgian in origin but I always thought it was Dutch or German, settlers in the area. The recipe that was provided was pretty accurate, although I've seen it done two ways. It's mainly a chicken soup with wide egg noodles. In one family gathering,they made the same recipe with a combination of chicken, beef, fish, and polish sausage. Yes, we still eat this at flea market food booths, family gatherings, and church picnics. Monica Wierzba Threads: -Posts: 3Joined: Aug 6, 2010 ♀ Edited by: Monica Wierzba Aug 6, 2010, 04:33pm #12 Here is my recipe for Booya. I usually make this at least once a year, and it makes a lot, so be prepared to share!! ;-)BOOYAYou will need an extra large kettle to make booya. I use my extra-large dark blue speckled canner. Cook booya for 4-5 hours at a medium boil.Ingredients:Equal parts Chicken, Beef and Pork, approx. 10-12 lbs. You can cook chicken and beef simultaneously. 1 whole chicken, cover with water several inches over chicken, when done, de-bone, save broth for booya. You can cook breasts alone, but with the bones you get a lot more flavor.Chop up beef & pork into large chunks, place in kettle and cover with several inches of water salt/pepper. Boil for approx. 1 hour. Add cooked chicken & broth. You can add onions, carrots and celery & diced tomatoes at this point. Continue boiling until meat starts to break down, and start falling apart, around another hour or so.You can start adding some of the other vegetables & other liquids at this point.1 large can V-81 large can chicken broth (use this if needed after chicken broth has been added).1 large head cabbage, cut into slivers, a bit larger than coleslaw slivers.2 lbs. (thawed) frozen corn1 lb. (thawed) frozen peas3-5 lbs. (approx.) carrots2-3 cans diced tomatoes1 large diced onions, approx., more if desired1 bunch celery stalks, approx. diced, more if desired3-4 cans green beans; no need to drain cans (save these for the last hour)3-5 lbs. potatoes, (save these for the last hour or so, otherwise, they get mushy)Additional chicken broth, if needed.Salt/Pepper & allspice: once an hour, season, taste broth season again if needed.Allspice approx. 2 tbsp. or to tasteSalt/pepper/allspice to taste.Allspice is the secret and only ingredient you need other than salt and pepper. No need to have a packet or group of spices wrapped in a cheese cloth. On quantities of vegetables, add more if you think it looks like the soup needs more of a particular vegetable. The quantities I put down are an approx. numbers.Booya is something that the folks in St. Paul/South St. Paul, Mn have been making for years. I believe it's big in Wisconsin also. This is something that Church and Men's groups get together to put on. It is usually cooked in large 500 gallon kettles, and sometimes there are several kettles going simultaneously. It is usually at a park setting, and crackers and beer are usually served with Booya. Booya has been known to take 12 hours to cook due to the large kettles. The recipe above only requires 4 hours, 4-1/2 hours max. jonni Threads: 21Posts: 3,230Joined: Nov 27, 2007 ♂ Aug 6, 2010, 04:43pm #13 Monica WierzbaThat looks like a really good recipe. It seems similar to something they do here in saudi - except they use lamb and camel instead of pork and beef, and they decant some of the liquid for soup and add a lot of rice about 20 minutes before serving. Monica Wierzba Threads: -Posts: 3Joined: Aug 6, 2010 ♀ Aug 6, 2010, 04:49pm #14 This is a really good recipe for booya.... The secret ingredient, which is supposed to be a packet of spices, and believe me it is "very secret", turns out to be allspice. My mother told me that, which is strange as how she never made booya, but that is definitely "the" ingredient. I've been told by someone who had just come from a booya, that this is the best that she had ever had... Mmmmmmmm.... I might have to make this sooner than I was planning. ;) Polonius3 Threads: 1,146Posts: 7,061Joined: Apr 11, 2008 ♂ Sep 11, 2010, 04:59pm #15 Anyone know what the ethnic origin of booyah is?

I like mine with chicken, Carrots, celery, corn, peas, onion, & potatoes. There are many varieties. Search recipe websites and you'll find a plethora of kinds! Polonius3 Threads: 1,146Posts: 7,061Joined: Apr 11, 2008 ♂ Jan 15, 2012, 03:34pm #23 I have never sampled booyah. Is it a strictly Wisconsin boonies kind of thing? Monica Wierzba Threads: -Posts: 3Joined: Aug 6, 2010 ♀ May 8, 2012, 09:43pm #24 Hi Bob!Well, I think it would be at least 50 servings. I usually have at least 25 people over, and I'm sending bowls home with people also. The kettle I use is the large blue speckled canner that people who can tomatoes and the like use. Actually, the last two times I've made booyah I did use an additional smaller kettle to take the overflow from my huge pot. I just pulled out a portion of the meat combination with some of the liquid, and added the rest in proportion to the pot, adding chicken broth if needed.FYI, you can always cut this recipe way down to a more manageable quantity. For an 8 qt. stock pot, I would probably use maybe four lbs. of a combination of beef, pork, and chicken. I would still use a lrg can of V8 and I would use the chicken broth after you cook and de-bone the chicken. Just have additional chicken broth to add if needed. Then, cut way back your vegetables. You'll have to let me know how it turns out if you ever make it. booya Sep 29, 2012, 11:57pm #25 Booya or booyah is a thick soup of unknown origin made throughout the Upper Midwestern United States.[1] Booya often requires up to two days and multiple cooks to prepare; it is cooked in specially designed "booya kettles" and usually meant to serve hundreds or even thousands of people. The name also refers to the event surrounding the meal. Alternative spellings include bouja, boulyaw, and bouyou.Contents 1 Cooking 1.1 Etymology 1.2 Modern day 2 See also 3 References 4 External linksCookingIn the cooking of booya, one makes a base or broth derived from meat bones, to which vegetables are added. Beef, chicken, and pork are popular varieties of meat for booya (with all three often added in the same kettle), with vegetables such as carrots, rutabaga, celery, and potatoes also in the mix. A wide variety of seasonings are used, sometimes lowered into the kettle in a cheesecloth bag.[2]Typical large-scale "booya kettles" can hold more than 50 US gallons (190 L) of the stew, and are made from steel to withstand direct heat. Some community groups and churches have their own kettles, generally custom-made for charity events, while other groups rely on municipal kettles.EtymologyThe name "booyah" is thought to have derived from the French language words for "to boil" (bouillir), and subsequently broth (bouillon). The spelling with an "h" is attributed to the phonetic spelling by Wallonian immigrants.[3] The Dictionary of American Regional English attributes it to French Canadian immigrants; others attribute to it a derivation from the Provençal seafood dish bouillabaisse.[2] festie Oct 19, 2013, 11:59pm #26 We just came from our third Booya this season in St Paul Minnesota. It is a combination of many types of meats and vegetables cooked in a broth seasoned with pickling spice which gives it the booya flavor. Around here we would think that chicken only booya is a travesty. I am also half Polish and my grandparents and mother never cooked anything remotely like this, nor did we see any when we visited Poland this year. festie Oct 20, 2013, 12:02am #27 Nope, allspice is too sweet. I had one that used that last week and it was the wrong taste. It's pickling spice!

The American Disease : Origins of Narcotic Control: Origins of Narcotic Control (Google eBook)
Oxford University Press, Feb 5, 1999 - Medical - 432 pages
The American Disease is a classic study of the development of drug laws in the United States. Supporting the theory that Americans' attitudes toward drugs have followed a cyclic pattern of tolerance and restraint, author David F. Musto examines the relationz between public outcry and the creation of prohibitive drug laws from the end of the Civil War up to the present. Originally published in 1973, and then in an expanded edition in 1987, this third edition contains a new chapter and preface that both address the renewed debate on policy and drug legislation from the end of the Reagan administration to the current Clinton administration. Here, Musto thoroughly investigates how our nation has dealt with such issues as the controversies over prevention programs and mandatory minimum sentencing, the catastrophe of the crack epidemic, the fear of a heroin revival, and the continued debate over the legalization of marijuana.

Page 382 - I propose a national mental health program to assist in the inauguration of a wholly new emphasis and approach to care for the mentally ill. This approach relies primarily upon the new knowledge and new drugs acquired and developed in recent years which make it possible for most of the mentally ill to be successfully and quickly treated in their own communities and returned to a useful place in society.

Chick Lit War Ceasefire! Sittenfeld-Weiner Peace Accord Reached
Back in 2005, when Jennifer Weiner blogged about how the subtext of Curtis Sittenfeld's Times takedown of Melissa Banks' 'The Wonder Spot' was "I'm smarter than she is. Also, my book is not chick lit. It's CATCHER IN THE RYE! Only with blow jobs," it didn't seem likely that the two bestselling authors would be, you know, hanging out anytime soon. So when sharp-eyed interviewer Keris Stainton spotted Sittenfeld's name in the acknowledgments of Weiner's latest novel,'Certain Girls,' she had to wonder how the former 'enemies' had become pals.
Weiner gave Sittenfeld credit for extending the olive branch by inviting her to an event: "And now I have a writer friend, which is cool. She was kind enough to read a draft of CERTAIN GIRLS and give me some notes that I found incredibly helpful, and I read her forthcoming novel, and suggested that she send all of the characters shoe-shopping at least once (kidding!)" Heartwarming! We can only hope that this historic accord will go a long way towards solving the problem that Weiner identified (and, um, worsened) in that blog post:"[W]hile we're performing the online equivalent of pulling each other's hair and writing mean things about each other's work on the virtual bathroom walls, men are still getting the majority of reviews in major papers and men are still penning the majority of the pieces in The New Yorker and influential magazines."

Hoffman Lends A Most Wanted Man Gravity
By Alan Scherstuhl
Animals and people are all jumbled up in this hyperactive Belgian puppet animation — as in A Town Called Panic's central ménage of Cowboy, Indian, and Horse. The filmmakers, Stéphane Aubier and Vincent Patar, show little regard for scale and less for convention. Cowboy (Aubier) is a screeching hysteric, and Horse (Patar) is a slow-moving romantic hero who longs to play the piano and carries a torch for the local music teacher, a mare with an orange mane and sultry voice (Jeanne Balibar). Cowboy, Indian, and Horse share a house that sinks to the center of the Earth when Indian mistakenly orders a million times as many bricks as necessary to build a barbecue for Horse's birthday. Actually, that makes the narrative seem almost linear. A Town Called Panic embodies a sensibility that might be termed "extreme quirk." The movie has the manic whimsy of the dollhouse scenes in Science of Sleep and is even closer to child's play — noisy, overexcited, and pragmatic.

Jim Cramer's Best Blogs
Editor's note: Jim Cramer will present his 2009 stock outlook for the first time at TheStreet.com Investment Conference on Saturday, Oct. 25. Click here for details.
Jim Cramer fills his blog on RealMoney every day with his up-to-the-minute reactions to what's happening in the market and his legendary ahead-of-the-crowd ideas. This week he blogged on:
- broken sentiment indicators,
- playing volatility, and
- the changing face of equities.
Sentiment Can't Measure This Broken MarketOriginally published on Tuesday, Oct. 15, at 4:23 p.m. EDT All my career, the sentiment indicators have worked. When you get anything near minus 10 on the oscillator, you have to be silly not to buy. When you get anything approximating 35% bulls on the Investors Intelligence survey, you have to buy. We have almost double that negative on the oscillator and half as many bulls as that pathetic number. Sentiment has become meaningless. It is incredible. If we are going into a severe recession, some of the selling makes sense, but not all of it. As we pull back to 8500 on the Dow, we will be looking at stocks that are yielding 6% to 7% that are solid and can't be shaken. We will be finding stocks at prices that we will look back and think it was impossible to believe. And then there will be another cohort where we will buy and then watch them go down again, because business is so soft. I want to reiterate that the stock market for now is just plain broken. You can't have Occidental Petroleum (OXY) down 15% like it is nothing. The company should be losing money with that kind of decline. Remember when I said on Monday that you can't have Exxon Mobil (XOM) go up 10 because it can go down 10 just as easily?

Claret Medical, Inc. Announces CE Mark Approval Of Montage 2™ And Live Case Debut During JIM 2013
SANTA ROSA, Calif., Feb. 27, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Claret Medical, Inc. announced today that its 2nd generation filtration system, Montage 2 Dual Filter System received CE Mark approval with an innovative catheter handle furthering the simplicity and ease of use of the technology while providing complete neuro-protection and embolic capture during intravascular procedures such as TAVR.
Montage 2 was featured during a live case at the Joint Interventional Meeting (JIM 2013) in Rome earlier this month. The case was performed by Professor George Nickenig and Professor Eberhard Grube, both of University Hospital, Bonn, Germany. After an explanation of the improved handle, Professor Nickenig demonstrated significant debris capture using Montage 2 and commented, "There is a lot of material captured here, that you want to have in the filter and not in the brain."
Claret Medical continues to expand its extensive clinical experience demonstrating significant debris capture during TAVR procedures, irrespective of the valve type used. Most recently Dr. John Webb, St. Paul's Hospital, Vancouver, Canada, began using Montage 2 during a TAVR procedure. "We have been impressed at the extent of embolic material we have been able to retrieve," commented Dr. Webb. The Montage 2 technology was also used by Elisabeth-Krankenhaus at the Contilia Heart and Vascular Centre, Essen Germany. "I have been delighted to see advancements in the Montage 2 delivery system, and our ability to protect TAVR patients from risk of embolic neurological deficit," noted Professor Christoph Naber, Managing Director of the center.
This is the third product approval for Claret Medical, demonstrating its leadership in embolic protection during TAVR. "We believe embolic capture and removal provides patients the best protection from exposure to neurological harm during TAVR procedures," stated Randy Lashinski President and CEO of Claret Medical. "We are excited that our vision continues to be clinically validated by such leaders in the clinical community."About Claret MedicalClaret Medical is a privately-held company focused on innovative solutions for cerebral protection during vascular intervention and surgery. Claret Medical is currently directing developmental and clinical resources to address stroke during TAVR, a significant unmet clinical need. www.claretmedical.com Media Contact: Randy Lashinski, CEO email@example.com(707) 528-9300 SOURCE Claret Medical, Inc.

Breakfast Topic: Your least favorite instance
Filed under: Breakfast Topics, Instances
Filed under: Breakfast Topics, Instances
Uldaman and maybe Gnomergan
Zul' Farrak or however it's spelled. I absolutely hate that instance. My number 2 hated instance is Uldaman.
I used to loathe Shattered Halls. Then we did Gruul's Lair and the first couple of trash pulls in SSC. This taught me a new appreciation of Shattered Halls, and now I'm amazed at how relatively easy it can be.
stockades are so tight it's hard to get your camera right, gnomeregan is annoying, and uldaman is uninspiring and somewhat tough for the level range listed on it.
those are my least favorite
It's a tossup between Mauradon and Uldaman.
They're both in zones where you're usually well done with the zones for that level when you're ready for the instance, they're amazingly long and the loot just isn't good for certain classes.
The thing BC got absolutely right was that short 2hr instances are good, and 5hr instances are bad.
Old instance wise, Mara and Ulda should just be burned to the ground, never to be raised again.
New instance wise, it doesn't get any more boring than a Shadow Labyrinth run.
I spent too much time and too many wipes in Maraudon. Also, I hate hate hate Steamvaults and the fact that I have to go back there to get exalted with CE.
My favorite level 70 instance so far is Black Morass, I also really liked Old Hillsbrad. Here's to KoT instances!
I love WC its where i got my first blue and its the first time i learned what this crazy thing called "threat" is all about.
Gnomeregan. My level 70 warrior can solo BRD up to the last boss, but dies there. Extremely long, extremely tedious, and way too much choreography is needed to get through it for a level 30 instance. The only way this could be fun would be to turn it into a low level 10 player raid that reset only weekly.
Second least favourte is Maraudon. Again, an exceedingly tedious and long instance, twice as long as Uldaman, and set in the metaphorical armpit of Azeroth, tedious even to get there.
Least favorite instance?
SM Cath.
Just for the fact that i ran that f'er a billion times trying to get that mace to drop. Them ran it another billion times with the guild.
Favorite probably BFD. I really like that one for some reason.
Worse instance I've ever been in would most likely be the entire Dire Maul, I hated it so much I only went into each part once.. disgusting instance!
I loved Maraudon btw dont see why people would complain about it.
TBC's most hated would be Shadow lab.
1. Sunken Temple. There is stuff dangling from the ceiling that obstructs my camera view no matter what. It's also bland, repetetive, boring, repetetive, uninspired, repetetive, circular and repetetive. Didn't we already kill that one boss? NOW RUN IN A CIRCLE!
2. BRD. It's huge and full of dwarves.
BRD. And it's not even close.
Yea, Sunken Temple is a royal pain. I also have no love for RFD or RFC. But I think my least favorite overall is prolly BRD...It's too long, the enemy density is too high, and the experience never gets better.
Maradon (sp?)
in that order
for BC instances, any of the Auchindon instances - I hate those bird people with a passion. Seriously, I want to light their feathers on fire...while they're still attached
WHile I like LBRS and BRD setting- and story-wise, I've done the graveyard run so many times, it's sickening.
And I Have yet to go through UBRS (working on Ony key, just for fun).
Nothing has ever been worse then BRD.
In terms of newer content, Shadow Lab is the worst. The second boss is the most poorly designed encounter in the entire game, nothing says fun like watching the boss spam mass dispel for no apparent reason while he also has the rest of the group beat the hell out of your healer.
Yay random wipe.
(Arcatraz and Mechanar are also crap. I'm surprised to see so much Maraudon hate though, its my favorite instance. Artistically its a masterpiece compared to how bland so many other instances are.)
In Order from most hated to least:
I can not stand Botanica for the new instances.

2 people favorited this theater

dmueller on April 12, 2008 at 2:47 pm
Back in the mid 40s, my brother and I used to be taken to the Lil almost every Saturday afternoon. The theatre was filled with kids who got to watch, not only 2 full-length pictures (one always was a western) but also a continuing serial. So our parents had at least a 3 hour reprieve, and we had our enjoyment.
Trolleyguy on January 9, 2005 at 2:14 pm
The Lil had its auditorium converted into warehouse space for the liquor retailer next door. A friend of mine who worked at the store took me in back to show what remained, which wasn't much.

Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc. Comments On Diesel Retrofit Market In California
VENTURA, Calif., Aug. 30, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:CDTI) ("CDTi" or the "Company"), a cleantech emissions control company, commented today on an announcement made by the Manufacturers of Emission Controls Association ("MECA") regarding industry sales of diesel particulate filters ("DPFs") under the mandatory California Truck and Bus Regulation. Earlier this month, MECA issued a press release which highlighted the slow pace of diesel retrofit sales in California. This is consistent with the sales volumes experienced by CDTi this year, as discussed in the Company's second quarter 2012 earnings call. CDTi believes this may, in part, have been attributable to the level of operator education and the intensity of state enforcement actions. The Company supports the recent declaration by the California Air Resources Board ("CARB") designating the month of August as "Gear Up for Clean Truck Month." CARB has initiated a multi-agency campaign to ensure that trucks traversing the state's highways are in compliance with state air pollution laws.
CARB, working in conjunction with the California Highway Patrol and other agencies, will deploy inspectors throughout the state, focusing on truck stops, fleet facilities, weigh stations, ports, rail yards and major points of entry into the state, to ensure full compliance with the regulation's requirements. Operators will face enforcement actions involving citations and audits if found in non-compliance with the regulation.
In the press release issued by MECA, it indicated that the total number of verified DPFs sold by MECA member companies in California in the first half of 2012 was 3,030, much lower than the volume expected by retrofit suppliers. The MECA press release also cited CARB projections that approximately 12,000 filters would be installed in 2012 and that approximately 66,000 filters overall would be installed from 2011 through 2015."We are very pleased and supportive of CARB's efforts to reach out and better inform truck operators about the importance of complying with the state mandated diesel emission regulation and enforcement timelines," said Craig Breese, Chief Executive Officer of CDTi. "The rate of verified DPFs sold has been below ours and the industry's expectations. However, while we have been successful in winning fleet operator business, we expect the trends to continue through the third quarter. We trust that the targeted and coordinated efforts by multiple state agencies will stimulate operators to initiate steps to comply with the January 1, 2013 deadline and drive sales in the fourth quarter and beyond."

Patrick Duffy
With the Ewing family in crisis (are they ever not?), Bobby (Patrick Duffy) is forced to make a difficult choice about the future of Southfork on tonight's Dallas (9/8c, TNT). So who does a cowboy turn to at such a crossroads? His late mama, naturally.
As this first look video clip shows, Bobby brings a simple bouquet of flowers to the woodsy grave of Miss Ellie, a.k.a. Eleanor Southworth Ewing Farlow, who passed away in 2001. Keep an eye out for other Ewing headstones in the gated family plot, including...

Who shot J.R.? That was the question that plagued millions of Dallas viewers during the summer of 1980. But that famous phrase may also be the only thing today's advertiser-coveted youths know about the veteran CBS nighttime soap. However, it's both of these groups, the obsessive former fans and those unacquainted with the Ewing family, that TNT hopes to win over with its reboot, which premieres Wednesday at 9/8c. Just in case, TVGuide.com has devised a handy cheat sheet to catch newbies up on all the romance, backstabbing and, of course, who actually killed J.R. (Um, spoiler alert?)....

J.R., Sue Ellen, Bobby, Ray, Cliff and Lucy will be back at Southfork when TNT's Dallas premieres June 13, but one original cast member will not return. Barbara Bel Geddes, who played beloved matriarch Miss Ellie, passed away in 2005, and the series will explain that her...

TNT is currently negotiating deals with veteran Dallas stars Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy and Linda Gray to head down south in early February to join a cast of hot, younger Ewings for a continuation of the 1978-91 primetime soap. And a lot has changed since we last visited with the Ewings in CBS's 1996 and 1998 reunion movies.

Stage and screen star Barbara Bel Geddes, best known for playing Dallas matriarch Miss Ellie, died at her home in Northeast Harbor, Maine, on Monday. The cause of death was lung cancer. Bel Geddes was 82. For more on her illustrious career, see Wednesday's Entertainment News.... Matthew McGrory, a 7-foot-plus actor who appeared in such movies as Big Fish, Men in Black II and The Devil's Rejects, died Tuesday of natural causes. He was 32.

Stage and screen star Barbara Bel Geddes, best known for playing Dallas matriarch Miss Ellie, died at her home in Northeast Harbor, Maine, on Monday, the San Francisco Gate reports. The cause of death was lung cancer. Bel Geddes was 82. The daughter of famed theatrical set designer Norman Bel Geddes, the actress started her career on Broadway, then made her film debut in 1947's The Long Night.

Humping My Wife's LegFor the last 3 years I have only had sex with my wife by humping her leg. She will often initiate these sessions when we are in bed by telling me to fetch a towel. When I return she will be stretched out ************. Once I have laid the towel on her leg I mount her thigh. She will often give my arse a few gentle pats or sometimes firmer slaps and tell me to 'go faster'
As I hump her leg she will use her vibrator. As I go faster it turns her on and I get to lick and suck her ****.
Her spare hand will be holding my arse and squeezing, stroking and patting to encourage me.
I feel a sense of humiliation and imagine that she tells her friends about her husband who humps her leg. This normally pushes me really close to ******. I then tell her I am about to come.
If she is not ready she tells me to wait and to suck her ****, and then as she comes herself I am allowed to hump myself off quickly on her leg.
On a few occaisions she comes first and if I am not ready I am told toget off her leg and lie on my back. She will then just fall asleep holding my **** as it throbs in her grip.
Overall I find this very exciting and am happy to carry on with my twice weekly leg hump. My wife is also content and encourages me to use this as my only form of sexual relief.
I am glad to know there are other men who do this, but maybe I am one of the few who have found themselves only achieving rekief in this way?
N0Play 46-50 1 Response 2 Oct 22, 2012
I hump legs and foot too. Mostly when the woman sit on a chair with their legs crossed I go over and stand on my knees front of her foot and she put her foot in between my legs and I start to rub my .... On her legs. I love it.

Dear John,
Every year, I take my son to see Santa. I take video of him sitting on Santa's lap, telling him what he wants. It is adorable to see him change over the years. I know he will love having these recordings when he is grown up and has a family of his own.
But he is 9 this year and does not want me with him or recording his visit with Santa. His father is in the military, currently serving a second tour overseas. The last time he was gone, we sent the video to him. It would mean a lot to get anything from home.
I think that his father's absence has something to do with his desire to not have me see Santa. I think he is going to ask for his dad to come home. He tries to be a tough little man, but I think having his father gone is tearing him up inside.
Can I insist that I be allowed to be allowed to record when my son sees Santa? I have been getting conflicting advice from my friends and relatives.
Recording Rebecca
Dear Recording,
There are many issues raised here that can be addressed with the law. Perhaps, they could be better handled with family counseling. Clearly, there is a lot of emotional turmoil in your family, which if not processed could lead to anger, resentment and a breakdown in communication. I pray that this does not happen.
Washington law prohibits recording any private conversation without first obtaining the consent of all the participants in the communication. There are some exceptions, such as when trying to prevent a crime, but there is not one for mothers of children. It should be noted that the video portion of the recording is acceptable; it's the sound that requires consent.
One can question whether a conversation with Santa is a private conversation. After all, it occurs in the middle of a mall with many people, including elves taking photos and people also waiting for Santa's attention. The court would look at the expectations of a reasonable 9 year old in that situation. I think it would be difficult for you to argue that your son does not have an expectation of privacy, given his voiced opposition.
While the statute does not allow recording without consent, you may be able to assert your right to parent into this situation. Parents are often able to consent on behalf of their children, even if the child denies consent. This parental right is seen countless times in doctor rooms when a wailing child his held down while given injections. Parents are presumed to know what is in the best interest of their children. Keep in mind that this is a presumption, meaning that it is a high probability. It is not an absolute.
Children grow up. They experience the world and react to it in ways that surprise us sometimes. Their interpretation of situations are often self-centered and short-sighted. He may not realize or understand the significance of the video on his future memories or his father's need to have ties to home. I urge you to get him some help. Otherwise, I fear your video may turn into a shouting match between you and your son. That wouldn't be good.
All of our service members and their families need support. This support can take on many forms. I know one proud father who sent his son daily postcards made from family photos so that his son and the people he served with would know more about the events and people that made this brave man the military brother they count on.

Starbucks VIA Ready Brew is Actually Delicious
Sure, it's impossible to walk into a Starbucks these days without being inundated with packets of their VIA Ready Brew. For months, it's been everywhere the extra friendly baristas are always "highly" recommending it. But really, if you're there to buy coffee, why do you need insta-coffee?
At least that's what we thought until a friend topped his homemade cupcakes with coffee icing delicious coffee icing that turned out to be made with these tiny little brilliant packages. Which in turn, of course, prompted us to try the actual coffee it's kind of delicious.
Instant coffee's usually wildly mediocre; it uses lower quality ingredients and nothing's as good as fresh. But Via's the exception Starbucks uses the same Arabica beans in the instant coffee that are used in the fresh brews found in the store, so it has the same rich, distinct flavor as the coffee we grab on our way to work every morning. And even though no one we know drinks it, it's been successful enough stateside that the company just announced they're launching it in the UK, too.
The packets come in different flavors, strengths, and for both iced and hot coffee (and there's decaf). You can grab the packets in store, at select stores, or online and if you don't drink coffee, add it to your next batch of icing.

" A producer had mentioned Barrymore early on to Sucsy: He batted down the idea at once. "Drew hadn't done anything as demandingly dramatic as this," Sucsy tells me. "Secondly, she had the Valley girl accent, which is nothing like this character. And" he hesitates, "Edie was a model, statuesque and whatnot. At the time, I didn't see Drew that way."
He reluctantly agreed to a meeting. Barrymore got in gear. "I did what I do when I have a big challenge lying in my path," she says. "I go to school. I shut the windows, the shades come down, the phone gets turned off, I don't go outI study." She put together a five-inch-thick binder full of research on Little Edie: old newspaper clips, articles on Miss Porter's School and society mores. She took careful notes throughout.
When she walked into the Chateau Marmont, Sucsy was floored. "She was wearing these big, kind of like butterfly sleeves, black, with this long slipabsolutely stunningly gorgeous, thin and beautiful," he recalls. "It was like, `Who the hell is that?' "
Still, Barrymore's looks were "only part of the battle," Sucsy says. Drew understood.
"I knew this was not a courtesy meeting, but not far from it," she says. "I didn't want to come in there like a hungry freak. But I also felt every second counting. Sopolite conversation, then he started looking through my binder, and I saw his demeanor change, actually noticing all the hard work I had put into it. So I just put it out there. I said, `LookI have all of this inside of me, and I promise you that I will change my face to be her. I will learn how to stop talking out of the side of my mouth. I will go to school to relearn body language. I will shut out the world. I will not talk to my friends. I will give up my life for this, because I don't think that you can play this character and have a social life and balance the two mentalities. I won't act. I'll become this person.'

Wearable fitness gadgets under Xmas tree in '14
Not all will be smartphone compatible, though
It appears to be a safe bet that wearable fitness gadgets will prove a popular choice amongst Brits as presents for loved ones this Xmas [Holidays] season. According to research from Kantar a total of 6.7 million adults in the UK are using gadgets or smartphone apps currently being used to monitor health – such as checking heart rate, food intake and activity levels. Juniper Research, of course, predicts that fitness devices will remain the dominant wearables segment until 2018 when smartwatches should take over. A Sunday Telegraph article by Marion Dakers here, speculates that insurance companies might tap into data gathered by such health monitors to fine tune their premiums. Continue reading

Apple's iPhone 6 & iOS 8 increase loyal app user cost by 34%
Fiksu's Indexes show how latest launches affect developers' costs
A massive increase (34 per cent) in the cost to developers of maintaining loyal app users has just been reported by Fiksu. The latest Fiksu Indexes (for September 2014).

However, Cost Per Loyal User (CPLU) on Android dropped to $0.08, down 10 per cent month-over-month and 9 per cent year-over-year. Continue reading

Google looking strong in emerging markets
Android One is particularly key for India
When Google announced its Q3 earnings recently, the results disappointed most industry analysts. Google's worse than expected performance has been blamed on a slow down in paid click-through revenue. However, one of the areas that Google is looking strong is their mobile strategy in emerging markets. As Google chief business officer, Omid Kordestani, commented, "Emerging markets are fundamentally different from developed. In countries like Indonesia [currently BlackBerry's stronghold - Ed.], people go straight to mobile. That's why you see us launch things like Android One." Here Marco Veremis, Upstream's CEO, comments on the earnings what Google is doing right in their approach to emerging markets – especially in India. Continue reading

Google's acquisition of AI tech Jetpac sounds alarms
Better download the City Guides iOS app fast before it goes
The news leaked out from San Francisco based, Jetpac, was being acquired by Google way before the search giant confirmed the fact itself. JetPac is an artificial intelligence (AI) firm specialising in deep learning technology. To date, the company has been know for the three apps it offers Apple iOS users via the iTunes app store. The chief of these is City Guides. You'd better download it fast because Jetpac announced on its own web site that it is going to pull the app shortly and stop actively supporting it from September 15th [2014]. That's one reason to panic. The other concerns Jetpac's ability to spy on your photos. Continue reading
Brits update world leading fantasy footie app
GoMo meets team in London's high tech Thirsty Bear pub
One of the main reasons why GoMo News trekked up to London's Waterloo area was the fact that we were meeting in London's high tech Thirsty Bear pub. Where you can order your drinks on an iPad. But we also wanted an insight into the thinking of a currently successful mobile game developer. And as such managed a cozy chat with Des O'Connor, a producer with Square Enix which has just released Champ Man 15. This is a world leading fantasy footie app and apparently '15′ will appear first in the Apple iTunes App Store. Why this developer is releasing the iOS version first (rather than the Android version) totally eluded us. Continue reading

I'll bet this gets asked a lot...
I go through a lot of butter. Several pounds a month. Domestic butter, Irish butter, salted, unsalted... I've even started snacking on butter. I'll put a half-pat in my cheek and let it dissolve. it's delicious.
But I can't help but feel that there's something missing from my life. It can't possibly be a good thing to have one source of fat be so dominant in my diet.
I've been considering adding coconut oil for frying my eggs, et cetera, but there's like 300 kinds.
Perhaps you guys could show me a few brands from the Netrition site and explain the differences between them?
I'm not picky about my coconut oil. I just buy whatever organic, extra virgin coconut oil I see at the time. It's available all around me, in stores and online, so when I'm low I grab some. I haven't noticed a big difference in quality in any I've used over the years. Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Vitamin Shoppe, Von's, amazon, Walgreens, I've satisfactorily bought EVCO from all of them.
The only thing I've noted recently is that nutiva has changed their jar design in some way, and it leaks more often. I will think twice about buying that brand for that reason, though it's nice and cheap from amazon.
Extra virgin has a mild coconutty smell and taste, so be aware of that. Refined is tasteless, and has a higher smoke point.
Coconut oil is no replacement for butter......butter is like a fine cheese and coconut oil is not.:)
That's annoying about the jar. I think I have a lifetime supply of nutiva, though. I get mine at costco in the jar as big as my abdomen.
Another source of fat that I like, if you're not already eating it, is avocado. Most days I'll eat a whole avocado, or at least a half. If I don't have any ripe ones on hand, I'll usually have some "avocadro's number" from trader joe's. I just eat it plain, w a little salt.
I primarily use bacon fat, coconut oil, and butter.
Yeah, I'm mad at nutiva for that. I wish I realized it before I threw out the last jars, or I would have just transferred the lot. These are the 15oz jars, and every time I pick one up, it's slick on the sides. I hate it, and I keep wiping wiping wiping, to no avail. I don't pour from it, I use spoons, but it's just screwed up.
Anyway. :o
I try to buy extra CO when on sale . . preferably organic.
Anyone eat lard? It gets a bad rap.
I have a friend who literally gasps if I say the L word.
It does make good pie crusts, not that I can eat those anymore.
What about palm oil? I haven't tried or even know where to get it but it is described as a medium chain triglyceride.
Bacon grease=unrefined lard. ;)
Well about lard homemade lard is fine but I just looked at a package
of lard in the grocery store and now it is partialy hydrogenated. This
means it now contains some trans fats which we all know are verry
bad for us. And it realy is a pity they did this because the shelf life
was realy long without this hydrogenation. Years ago coconut oil got
an undeserved reputation for being bad for your heart. When this was
looked into closer it was discovered they were looking at hydrogenated
coconut oil which is indead bad for your heart. But unhydrogenated
coconut oil is good for your heart.
The Nutiva is my favorite and put 3 tbl. In my coffee every morning with hwc. I buy the huge container either from Netrition or Costco. It must be the smaller container that had the problem, because I've never had a problem and I've been buying it for over one and 1/2 years. Ironically, as I live in the cold pacific northwest, the stuff is always hard-rock solid :laugh:
I also use a ton of melted butter and olive oil combined which I adore for sautéing garlic and pretty much any veggies!
I like Nutiva and a certain store brand I can't name on here. The Nutiva from Costco is slightly cheaper than that brand, though, so I'm converted. Spectrum Natuals unrefined coconut oil is great, too.
I use butter, bacon grease/lard, coconut oil, and cold pressed oil like sesame and olive oil.
Personally, I think that butter is fine if that's what you like. I love the Pulgra brand. It is so rich and creamy. I don't really use much else either. I will use olive oil to lightly fry something in though. I say why NOT use butter? :-)
I recently found cacoa butter at WF. I am using that here and there, but I do go easy on it because it has theobromide--a caffiene like substance that I'm sensitive to. A little in my morning coffee is nice, though.
Mmmm butter. . . .
I also use Olive Oil, ECO, and sometimes a little sesame oil. And the Bacon grease :D
I also just buy whatever brand of ECO that I find on sale near me.
I use EVOO on my tuna and to make salad dressing. I use lard when frying anything. I use butter/ghee for everything else. So it's my main source of fat too (I probably go through a stick every couple of days). Nothing wrong with butter if it works for you.
I use butter (organic, Irish, salted), avocado, bacon grease, avocado oil (yum!), refined coconut oil for most cooking/morning coffee routine, and unrefined for my fat bombs. :) use what ya like!
I understood that between the brands, there were differences in flavor... some are more coconutty, others are less so... stuff like that.
Spectrum makes a REFINED coconut oil that has virtually no taste. I use this for my general sauteeing when I don't want any coconutty flavor. The unrefined are the ones that will have a mild coconut flavor. I personally love the flavor, but do not like all my food tasting like it, so I reserve my unrefined for smoothies, sweet baked goods, etc.
I like Nutiva, it's neutral with very little coconut flavor.
I purchased spectrum locally and it had (to me) a very strong coconut smell and taste, so I would only use it for things I wanted the flavor in, like curries.
People on here were raving about Tropical Traditions, so I bought some and the flavor was really strong, so I didn't like it either.
Nutiva is my favorite too. I didn't know that it was sold at Costco! Must go shopping now. :)
I get Trader Joe's Organic Virgin Coconut Oil. I love it, but it does have a fairly strong coconut taste so I use it mainly for sautéing veggies when I'm cooking any asian-type foods and I use it in my coffee in the morning.
Google: foodrenegade how to choose a good coconut oil
Edit to add: There is also lots to be learned from the comments after the article; a lot of discussion/opinions on specific brands and things like that
I'm a big fan of Tropical Traditions organic EPCO (expeller-pressed coconut oil - no coconut smell/taste) and I also buy their organic VCO (smells and tastes like coconuts) - but I also just bought the ginormous plastic vat of Nutiva at Costco. Haven't opened it yet, but it was a great price - so I'll try it!
Bacon grease and lard aren't the same thing - lard is usually processed from the leaf fat of the hog (fat around the kidneys) and of course, bacon grease is rendered when you cook cured and/or smoked bacon, so it does have a flavor. Good lard is pretty mild-tasting. There still IS some non-hydrogenate lard, but you have to look hard for it - and I don't recall the brand off the top of my head. I love cooking with it though, it has a high smoke point and adds just a skosh of that good flavor to whatever you cook in it.
I DO also save my rendered bacon grease, because, well, it tastes like BACON! Wonderful for frying pork chops, adding a blop to cooking water for green beans or any type of greens like kale, collard, etc. - and nothing can beat it for frying eggs, IMHO!
I also use rice bran oil (high smoke point, not overly processed - Fawn turned me on to this a few years ago), EVOO and extra-light OO, and plenty of BUTTAH, Baby. Yum.
Sigh. It's SO hard to eat this way. :laugh:
I know they're not the same thing. I was kidding.
From a nutritional standpoint, palm kernel oil really is a very healthy fat. Great alternative to crisco in baking :)
I've liked Nutiva and Tropical Traditions. Currently I'm LOVING Spectrum Organic unrefined, the taste is very mild I can even cook my eggs in it.
I absolutely didn't like Trader Joe's, it tastes too much like soap.
My Costco doesn't have Nutiva but they had a different brand (I think it was their own brand, I don't remember) but I haven't tried it yet.
I use CO but don't go overboard with it. I still don't do bullet proof coffee, though I'm contemplating it for tomorrow since I'm home from work.
It's a 78 oz. container for under $23.
I love butter to and use quite a bit of it.
I do love avocados too, but just don't eat them enough. Someone mentioned eating them plain with salt - I most often eat them with salt and a little lime or lemon juice.
Not a fan of coconut oil though, but I don't like coconut much either.
I keep meaning to try a local store that specializes in Latin America foods including a good pre-cooked foods/deli section. Someone once mentioned that those kinds of stores will carry it. The store makes fresh pork rinds too which are so much better than the stuff in the package.

ASTM issues revised standard on phase I environmental site assessments
November 27, 2013
ASTM has issued revised standard ASTM E1527-13 that governs phase I environmental site assessments. The EPA uses the ASTM standard to determine whether companies have met the "All Appropriate Inquiry" requirement under the Superfund law. The agency is expected to rule by the end of the year on whether both 1527 versions, 2005 or 2013, will be acceptable for that purpose. Until the EPA officially adopts the new standard, companies should continue to follow the 2005 version to meet the AAI requirement.
