A Toxin By Any Other Name: Aspartame's Name Changed to AminoSweet
Posted by Anonymous on April 11, 2014
Used as a sugar substitute and often marketed as Nutrasweet and Equal, aspartame is an excitotoxin that destroys the brain and body. Its use has been a controversial subject since the 1980s when the CEO of Searle, Donald Rumsfeld, pushed for it's approval to be sold on the market. Now, its name is being changed, with FDA approval, to try to dupe millions into purchasing and consuming this toxin once again.
Aspartame, even renamed Amino Sweet, is not safe. This substance is made using genetically modified bacteria in the US, but according to a Monsanto source, the UK market does not have to eat genetically modified bacteria excrement. Many 'low-calorie' foods contain GMO aspartame, however, even overseas. Aspartame may cause blindness, cancer, and brain tumors.
Just as a reminder of who is pushing this excrement – quite literally – on the consumers of the United states, it was Mr. Rumsfeld who went on to become George W. Bush's secretary of Defense, and crony-Capitalist agenda-pusher. This one substance has continually been shown to cause harm to human health, so why is the FDA renaming it instead of banning it completely from the food supply? There is considerable evidence that artificial sweeteners cause cancer, including aspartame specifically – so why not name it something more appropriate at least? 'Sickeningly Sweet' might be more appropriate.
Even saccharin eventually had to be made with a label, mandated by Congress, that says, "Use of this product may be hazardous to your health. This product contains saccharin, which has been determined to cause cancer in laboratory animals". The FDA's own toxicologist, Dr. Adrian Gross told Congress that without a shadow of a doubt, aspartame can cause brain tumors and brain cancer and that it violated the Delaney Amendment.

NASA Study: Civilization collapse difficult to avoid on current course
Posted by Anonymous on March 18, 2014
A new study sponsored by Nasa's Goddard Space Flight Center has highlighted the prospect that global industrial civilisation could collapse in coming decades due to unsustainable resource exploitation and increasingly unequal wealth distribution.
Noting that warnings of 'collapse' are often seen to be fringe or controversial, the study attempts to make sense of compelling historical data showing that "the process of rise-and-collapse is actually a recurrent cycle found throughout history." Cases of severe civilisational disruption due to "precipitous collapse – often lasting centuries – have been quite common."
The research project is based on a new cross-disciplinary 'Human And Nature DYnamical' (HANDY) model, led by applied mathematician Safa Motesharrei of the US National Science Foundation-supported National Socio-Environmental Synthesis Center, in association with a team of natural and social scientists. The study based on the HANDY model has been accepted for publication in the peer-reviewed Elsevier journal, Ecological Economics.
It finds that according to the historical record even advanced, complex civilisations are susceptible to collapse, raising questions about the sustainability of modern civilisation:
"The fall of the Roman Empire, and the equally (if not more) advanced Han, Mauryan, and Gupta Empires, as well as so many advanced Mesopotamian Empires, are all testimony to the fact that advanced, sophisticated, complex, and creative civilizations can be both fragile and impermanent."
By investigating the human-nature dynamics of these past cases of collapse, the project identifies the most salient interrelated factors which explain civilisational decline, and which may help determine the risk of collapse today: namely, Population, Climate, Water, Agriculture, and Energy.
These factors can lead to collapse when they converge to generate two crucial social features: "the stretching of resources due to the strain placed on the ecological carrying capacity"; and "the economic stratification of society into Elites [rich] and Masses (or "Commoners") [poor]" These social phenomena have played "a central role in the character or in the process of the collapse," in all such cases over "the last five thousand years."
Currently, high levels of economic stratification are linked directly to overconsumption of resources, with "Elites" based largely in industrialised countries responsible for both:
"… accumulated surplus is not evenly distributed throughout society, but rather has been controlled by an elite. The mass of the population, while producing the wealth, is only allocated a small portion of it by elites, usually at or just above subsistence levels."
The study challenges those who argue that technology will resolve these challenges by increasing efficiency:
"Technological change can raise the efficiency of resource use, but it also tends to raise both per capita resource consumption and the scale of resource extraction, so that, absent policy effects, the increases in consumption often compensate for the increased efficiency of resource use."
Productivity increases in agriculture and industry over the last two centuries has come from "increased (rather than decreased) resource throughput," despite dramatic efficiency gains over the same period.
Modelling a range of different scenarios, Motesharri and his colleagues conclude that under conditions "closely reflecting the reality of the world today… we find that collapse is difficult to avoid." In the first of these scenarios, civilisation:
"…. appears to be on a sustainable path for quite a long time, but even using an optimal depletion rate and starting with a very small number of Elites, the Elites eventually consume too much, resulting in a famine among Commoners that eventually causes the collapse of society. It is important to note that this Type-L collapse is due to an inequality-induced famine that causes a loss of workers, rather than a collapse of Nature."
Another scenario focuses on the role of continued resource exploitation, finding that "with a larger depletion rate, the decline of the Commoners occurs faster, while the Elites are still thriving, but eventually the Commoners collapse completely, followed by the Elites."
In both scenarios, Elite wealth monopolies mean that they are buffered from the most "detrimental effects of the environmental collapse until much later than the Commoners", allowing them to "continue 'business as usual' despite the impending catastrophe." The same mechanism, they argue, could explain how "historical collapses were allowed to occur by elites who appear to be oblivious to the catastrophic trajectory (most clearly apparent in the Roman and Mayan cases)."
Applying this lesson to our contemporary predicament, the study warns that:
"While some members of society might raise the alarm that the system is moving towards an impending collapse and therefore advocate structural changes to society in order to avoid it, Elites and their supporters, who opposed making these changes, could point to the long sustainable trajectory 'so far' in support of doing nothing."
However, the scientists point out that the worst-case scenarios are by no means inevitable, and suggest that appropriate policy and structural changes could avoid collapse, if not pave the way toward a more stable civilisation.
The two key solutions are to reduce economic inequality so as to ensure fairer distribution of resources, and to dramatically reduce resource consumption by relying on less intensive renewable resources and reducing population growth:
"Collapse can be avoided and population can reach equilibrium if the per capita rate of depletion of nature is reduced to a sustainable level, and if resources are distributed in a reasonably equitable fashion."
The NASA-funded HANDY model offers a highly credible wake-up call to governments, corporations and business – and consumers – to recognise that 'business as usual' cannot be sustained, and that policy and structural changes are required immediately.
… a number of other more empirically-focused studies – by KPMG and the UK Government Office of Science for instance – have warned that the convergence of food, water and energy crises could create a 'perfect storm' within about fifteen years. But these 'business as usual' forecasts could be very conservative.
Continuity of Government, if the elites want it, is not going to be had by digging underground cities, stockpiling food, gas and water and waiting out the storm. The current fragile pyramid will not be maintained by the persecution of whistleblowers. Instead, the way to fix things is to get everyone to understand that we all fail if we don't pull together. Teamwork or die.

Company proposes meat from celebrity tissue samples
Posted by Anonymous on March 17, 2014
"It's people! Soylent green is made out of people", to quote from the classic 1973 science fiction film and Charlton Heston's memorable line. …
Once more life imitates art, and a startup called BiteLabs is looking for support to create meat products from celebrity body parts, aiming to take cells from willing celebs and using them to grow protein into test-tube meat.
LATimes.com spoke with a representative of the organization: "At the moment, our primary goal is to provoke discussion and debate around topics of bioethics and celebrity culture." …
Los Angeles Times' "Daily Dish" reports on the newest and 'coolest' way to devour ourselves:
[…]Here's how it will work, according to the BiteLabs website. A sample of tissue containing myosatellite cells (the type of cells that help repair and regrow damaged muscle) will be taken from a person during a biopsy. Those cells are multiplied in a lab using a medium that acts as an artificial blood to grow muscle.
Once the cells are mature enough, they will be ground and mixed with different kinds of meat, spices, fats and oils for flavor using one of the company's "time-honored recipes for the creation of fine cured meats." It will then be stuffed into casings, seasoned again then dry aged and cured before packaging for distribution.
The company outlines how this type of test-tube meat would eliminate environmental and ethical concerns associated with livestock production, claiming its celebrity meat production would require less than 1% of the land used in traditional farming. The site also notes, the lab meats will not be affected by growth hormones or come into contact with any pesticides or chemicals.
And as far as the celebrity angle, BiteLabs is hoping they can use celebrities to warm people up to the idea of consuming the meat. …

GMO Science Credibility Falls with Two Retracted Studies
Posted by Anonymous on March 11, 2014
The pesticide producers are one of the most powerful industries on the planet, the influence they possess is enormous. You have probably heard that an Elsevier journal has retracted the Seralini study which showed evidence of harm to rats fed a GMO diet, despite admitting they found no fraud or errors in the study.
This journal had also just recently appointed an ex-Monsanto employee as an editor – one could only guess the value of this strategy for the pesticide industry. Expect Seralini to sue as this story develops, as it appears he has a very strong case.
Alas, the scientific ground on which the genetic engineering of plants is built may now be shakier than ever, thanks to GMO promoting scientists like Dr. Pamela Ronald. A recent article in Independent Science News1 questions whether she'll be able to salvage her career, as two of her scientific papers (published in 2009 and 2011 respectively) were recently retracted.
With the loss of her credibility, and the domino effect these retractions are likely to cause within the scientific field, the entire chemical technology industry stands to suffer a great blow to its scientific integrity.
"Her media persona… is to take no prisoners," Jonathan Latham, PhD writes.2 "After New York Times chief food writer Mark Bittman advocated GMO labeling, she called him 'a scourge on science' who 'couches his nutty views in reasonable-sounding verbiage.' His opinions were "almost fact- and science-free" continued Ronald.
In 2011 she claimed in an interview with the US Ambassador to New Zealand: 'After 14 years of cultivation and a cumulative total of two billion acres planted, GE crops have not caused a single instance of harm to human health or the environment.'"
She may have to turn down her criticism a notch, considering the fact that not one but two of her own studies were found to contain sizeable scientific errors, rendering her findings null and void. Questions have also been raised about a third study published in 2011, according to the featured article.
Public Face of GMOs Loses Scientific Credibility
Ronald's research group claimed to have identified a molecule used by rice plants to detect pathogenic rice blight, as well as a quorum sensing molecule (meaning a molecule that can coordinate gene expression according to the density of the local population).
These two studies, both of which are now retracted,3, 4 formed the basis of her research program at the University of California in Davis, which is investigating how rice plants detect certain pathogenic bacteria.
Ronald blamed the erroneous work by long gone lab members from Korea and Thailand, referring to the errors as a "mix-up." She didn't name her bungling colleagues, however. And while media coverage applauded Ronald for "doing the right thing" by retracting the studies, the featured article5 questions whether she really deserves such accolades:
"[S]cientific doubts had been raised about Ronald-authored publications at least as far back as August 2012… German researchers had been unable to repeat Ronald's discoveries… and they suggested as a likely reason that her samples were contaminated.
Furthermore, the German paper also asserted that, for a theoretical reason, her group's claims were inherently unlikely. In conclusion, the German group wrote: 'While inadvertent contamination is a possible explanation, we cannot finally explain the obvious discrepancies to the results…'
Pamela Ronald, however, did not concede any of the points raised by the German researchers and did not retract the Danna et al 2011 paper. Instead, she published a rebuttal.
The subsequent retractions, beginning in January 2013, however, confirm that in fact very sizable scientific errors were being made in the Ronald laboratory. But more importantly for the 'Kudos to Pam' story, it was not Pamela Ronald who initiated public discussion of the credibility of her research.
… Ronald's footnotes [in the explanation that accompanied the retraction of her second article6 admit two mislabelings, along with failures to establish and use replicable experimental conditions, and also minimally two failed complementation tests. Each mistake appears to have been compounded by a systemic failure to use basic experimental controls.
Thus, leading up to the retractions were an assortment of practical errors, specific departures from standard scientific best practice, and lapses of judgment in failing to adequately question her labs' unusual (and therefore newsworthy) results."
The Snowball Effect of Retracted Studies
According to data from Thomson Reuters,7 the numbers of scientific retractions have climbed more than 15-fold since 2001. What many don't realize is that even a small number of retracted studies can wreak absolute havoc with the science-based paradigm. Other scientists who have based their research on the results from studies that, for whatever reason, end up being retracted, are now perpetuating flawed science as well. In one example, two retracted medical studies led to the retraction of another 17.
In this case, the first of Dr. Ronald's retracted studies has been cited eight times.8 The second? 113 times.9 That sounds like an awfully large cleanup job in a field that's already heavily criticized for its preponderance of "lousy science," to use the words of award-winning geneticist Dr. David Suzuki.
The Problem with GMO Plant Science
It's important to realize that genetically engineered plants and animals are created using horizontal gene transfer (also called horizontal inheritance). This is in stark contrast to vertical gene transfer, which is the mechanism in natural reproduction. Vertical gene transfer, or vertical inheritance, is the transmission of genes from the parent generation to offspring via sexual or asexual reproduction, i.e., breeding a male and female from one species.
Horizontal gene transfer, on the other hand, involves injecting a gene from one species into a completely different species, which yields unexpected and often unpredictable results. Proponents of genetically engineered crops assume they can apply the principles of vertical inheritance to horizontal inheritance, but according to Dr. David Suzuki, this assumption is flawed in just about every possible way and is "just lousy science."
Genes don't function in a vacuum — they act in the context of the entire genome. Whole sets of genes are turned on and off in order to arrive at a particular organism, and the entire orchestration is an activated genome. It's a dangerous mistake to assume a gene's traits are expressed properly, regardless of where they're inserted. The safety of genetically modified food is based only on a hypothesis, and this hypothesis is already being proven wrong.
The kind of horizontal gene transfer that is currently used to create new crop seeds tends to produce highly inflammatory foreign proteins. As one would expect, were there a connection, inflammation-based chronic diseases have indeed increased right alongside with the proliferation of GMO foods in the US. Clearly, Dr. Ronald never bothered to look at such data, and her declaration that "GE crops have not caused a single instance of harm to human health or the environment"10 is as lacking in scientific support as her retracted research.

Kangaroo eats penguin
Posted by Anonymous on March 5, 2014
WHILE KANGAROOS ARE known to munch grass, with the addition of fruit, flowers, sap and bark for tree kangaroos, who knew they favour an occasional bite of meat?
Sam Murray, who captured this curious footage, happened upon this western grey kangaroo (Macropus fuliginosus) tucking into a penguin on the beach at Cape Le Grande national park, located east of Esperance, WA in March 2013.
"We were walking down to the beach in the late evening before sunset, and we noticed a group of five or six kangaroos gathered on the beach. We started towards them and all the others were quick to hop away, but not this smaller one," Sam says.
"He was really quite focussed on what he was doing. Even when we got to within a metre and a half of him, he wouldn't stop eating."
Kangaroos sometimes eat meat
Professor Graeme Coulson, a zoologist at the University of Melbourne, explains that "All living macropods appear to be gentle herbivores. They [generally] lack the equipment to capture and kill other animals, or the digestive system to handle a meaty diet."
While penguins aren't a typical kangaroo snack, Graeme says that "Australia once had carnivorous macropods. The largest of these was Propleopus oscillans, which stood up to 2 m tall and had teeth that were well adapted to eating meat. This 'killer kangaroo' went extinct tens of thousands of years ago."
While this footage may strike many as peculiar, Professor Tim Flannery, an expert mammalogist, says "This is unusual, I admit, but most herbivores will eat some protein if it's available. Tree kangaroos will eat birds and even cows will chew on a bone."
Graeme also recognizes that known herbivores are not all strict vegetarians. "White-tailed deer in the USA have been reported stealing trout from a fishing camp and removing nestlings from nests hidden in prairie grassland. Captive macropods are known to eat a wide range of foods, including chicken and lamb chops. This western grey kangaroo was simply taking advantage of an easy meal," Graeme says.

'Shoe rubber' chemical removed from subway bread found in nearly 500 common foods
Posted by Anonymous on February 28, 2014
Footlong fans breathed a sigh of relief at the beginning of February, when sandwich chain Subway announced that it was removing azodicarbonamide — a chemical used in shoe rubber and yoga mats — from its bread.
Though the World Health Organization has said that the chemical is safe for human consumption, some studies have suggested it could be linked with asthma and skin and respiratory problems. And when the chemical is baked, it forms another chemical that has been linked to cancer in animal studies, CBS News pointed out. A series of popular petitions circulated by blogger Vana Hari, who runs the website FoodBabe.com, have also argued the case that its efficacy as a "bleaching agent" in bread just isn't worth the potential health hazards.
It's been well-established at this point that azodicarbonamide is a relatively common ingredient in processed foods. But a newly released study by the Environmental Working Group, a nonprofit, suggests that azodicarbonamide is far more common than we may have realized. EWG pored through the ingredient lists of more than 80,000 common grocery foods in an attempt to figure out which products contained the chemical. And they found it in nearly 500 items sold under 120 different brand names. …
From Wikipedia:
As a food additive, azodicarbonamide is used as a flour bleaching agent and an improving agent. It reacts with moist flour as an oxidizing agent. The main reaction product is biurea, a derivative of urea, which is stable during baking. Secondary reaction products include semicarbazide and ethyl carbamate. The United States and Canada permit the use of azodicarbonamide at levels up to 45 ppm. In Australia and Europe the use of azodicarbonamide as a food additive is banned.

Longevity Foods: The Amazing Azuki Bean
Posted by Anonymous on February 24, 2014
Jiroemon Kimura the man who lived longer than any other man in recorded history attributed his robust health to waking early in the day, watching his food portion sizes (a regular breakfast of rice porridge and miso soup), reading the newspapers and watching parliamentary debates on TV.
There may be something special about those red beans with rice. "For his last birthday, he dined on grilled fish, steamed rice and red beans, a Japanese tradition on special occasions." – (link)
I think Mr. Kimura was eating Sekihan (Japanese Azuki Beans & Rice). Was he growing his own food? He retired in 1962 at age 65 after 40 years as a postman and was then a farmer until age 90.
Azuki beans are a good source for a variety of minerals. They are rich in soluble fiber which lowers bad LDL cholesterol, low in calories and fat, they have healing properties for kidney, bladder and reproductive functions. The bean has diuretic effect to strengthen kidneys and may act an effective cure for urinary dysfunction and bladder infections. The presence of plant estrogens in these beans has been credited in breast cancer prevention by reducing body estrogen levels. The beans are high in protein (~25%) and easy to digest.

1.223 g of potassium (~25 % AI)
4.0 mg of zinc (~25% RDI)
278 µg of folic acid (~70% RDI).
I'm going to try to grow some here in California. I was glad to hear that they are somewhat drought resistant.
Climatic requirements. Seeds do well during frost-free periods, with cool nights. The plant is reported to be somewhat drought resistant. Adzuki beans have similar requirements to soybeans or drybeans.
Propagation and care. Adzuki is a short-day plant that does not grow well in waterlogged soil. Information from the University of Minnesota recommends treating the seeds for fungi, insects and bacteria before planting. Adzuki beans emerge more slowly when the soil is 50 to 55�F. In Minnesota, the best planting time is between May and June. A good plant population is 105,000 plants per acre (25-35 pounds of seed). Plant seeds in rich, loamy soil, to 1 inch deep. Plants should stand 2 to 3 inches apart. Recommended row spacing varies from 12 to 18 inches, or 18 to 30 inches. Neutral to alkaline soil is required for maximum N fixation, and a medium to high soil test level of P and K should ensure adequate fertility levels and the best crop yield. Fertilize seedlings when they are 4 to 5 inches high and again when the flowers start to form pods. Moisture should be ample and at a consistent level. Uneven ripening is characteristic of adzuki beans. Expect mature pods, brownish in color, with slightly yellow and completely green pods on the same plant. Adzuki beans will fix nitrogen but require innoculation with a Rhizobium strain specific to this crop.
White mold, bacterial stem rot, and other bean diseases may affect adzuki beans. A good rotation program, furrow rather than overhead irrigation, use of disease-free seed and a spray program can help prevent these diseases. Most adzuki varieties are susceptible to a number of aphid borne viruses that attack legumes, including curly top virus.
Harvest and postharvest practices. To harvest as green beans, pick the adzuki pods when the beans are faintly outlined in the pod. Picking every 5 to 6 days is usually sufficient. In California Adzuki beans will mature in less thatn 120 days for use as dry beans.
Growers can cut and windrow adzukis in the morning to allow drydown and combine later in the day, or direct combine the beans with a grain header or row crop headers. Pods shatter very easily, especially if the harvest is delayed until late in the season or the day. To decrease losses, use slower speeds, open the concaves, and harvest only during appropriate hours. The entire plant, including dry pods, can be harvested and stacked in a dry, well-ventilated place for drying. Complete drying occurs a week or two after harvesting. After drying, shell the beans and store in refrigerated, air-tight containers.
Pest and weed problems. Adzuki beans compete poorly against weeds. Seed quality is critical to early vigor. Choose a location with light weed pressure and rotary hoe 7 to 10 days after planting. Cultivate the beans when the primary leaves are fully developed, and if necessary, 10 to 20 days later. …
Another important tip seems to be this: eat less!
So what does the world's oldest man eat? The answer is not much, at least not too much. Walter Breuning, who turned 113 on Monday, eats just two meals a day and has done so for the past 35 years. "I think you should push back from the table when you're still hungry," Breuning said. At 5 foot 8, ("I shrunk a little," he admitted) and 125 pounds, Breuning limits himself to a big breakfast and lunch every day and no supper. "I have weighed the same for about 35 years," Breuning said. "Well, that's the way it should be." "You get in the habit of not eating at night, and you realize how good you feel. If you could just tell people not to eat so darn much." – link
I love food too much. Would you rather eat all you want and be happy and comfortable … and die 20 years earlier? There is no solid evidence yet in primates that reducing calories will make you live longer, but there are hints. Azuki beans, which are low in calories, make it easier to accomplish calorie restriction with adequate nutrition (CRAN) because they give healthy levels of protein, vitamins and minerals. Do they taste good?

Rat cake revolts man on his 96th birthday
Posted by Anonymous on February 24, 2014
New York grocery chain said it never had a rodent complaint before a 96-year-old Long Island man claimed he found a dead rat baked into his birthday cake.
King Kullen bakery said in a written statement this weekend that it had recalled everything from the shelves of its bakeries, which are located inside its grocery stores.
"Product has been removed from the bakery and the premises has undergone a thorough inspection," the statement said. "There are no known safety or rodent issues in this bakery."
But Neil Gold said there was at least one rodent issue. His aged uncle Joe allegedly got a rude surprise last week at his birthday celebration when he noted his German apple ring cake had a somewhat ratty taste to it.
"He said, 'It doesn't taste right,'" Gold told WABC-TV in New York. We flipped it (the cake) over and seemed to be a rat's tail."
The Gold family lawyer, Ed Yule, told WABC he suspected someone tampered with the cake and will turn it over to New York state officials for further investigation.
via King Kullen pulls bakery products after rat found in birthday cake – UPI.com.
Happy 96th birthday, Mr. Neil Gold. Life is like that, isn't it? If I was the judge hearing your case, I'd say the King Kullen store, if found responsible after an investigation by the health department, owes you free groceries for life. Then you should really get 'em back by living to 116 like Jiroemon Kimura did! Best wishes.

I found a couple links to midget porn, but its straight. Click if you want to:
Just do a search there under "midget" and you will find a surprising number of vids.
Wow guys, good finds! I actually know Mike Kuhns! Not very well, but we connected on MySpace, and are still in touch on occasion. He is a very handsome, well-built guy. And that Benjamin Huver? Phew, he's hot!
Found this guy on Adam4Adam. I've sent him several winks and messages, and he never replies, so either he's not interested in other LPs, or he's not interested in guys that don't live near him, or he's just an ass and doesn't reply to anyone. Either way, he's VERY easy on the eyes!
thought i was the only person HAH looked & looked to no success, shit.
www.gayonlyporn.com ....How Finding Porn Should Be!
www.usedandworn.com ....Used Gear and underwear fetish heaven!
Any UK guys who've been around a bit will remember York Hall Turkish Baths in London (now ruined by 'modernisation'). There was a small guy who I saw there a couple of times and his cock was 'normal' size which made it look huge on him. He got plenty of attention, I really miss that place it had a wide varirty of different types of guys far better than any gay sauna and was on the surface very East End and straight...
I used to live about half an hour from a bath house; I went there a few times, but never hooked up or did anything. I got a lot of lookers, but none of them ever actually approached me. The few times I decided to take the lead, they all retreated and tried to pretend they hadn't been looking/staring. It's always been frustrating how many people online say that they'd be interested in hooking up with a Little Person/Dwarf, but when actually presented with the opportunity, no one ever seems to want to. :-/
Even though gay sex will not produce offspring, we are by and large still required by our evolutionary genes to pick the most attractive, physically fit mates because to do so ensures our own survival through our offspring.
Midgets are registered as sick (or "disgusting") in most people's minds because to mate with them would mean that our offspring have a less likely chance to survive or do well.
This is all a very primitive way to operate and is more suited to wild animals than modern humans but it is nonetheless how our evolution has prepared us.
BigCamTube has a midget guy
Sadly i doubt we will ever see gay porn featuring little people,unless it is girl on girl...
OMFG lief from survivor
I know this isn't porn but I saw the movie Mirror Mirror today and was just drooling over some of the midgets they had cast as the seven dwarves. The best part was towards the end of the movie you got to see a couple of them shirtless for an extended scene. The two shirtless midgets had awesome chests.
Here are a couple of my favorites from the movie.
a couple of these have already been posted, a couple are new... https://7chan.org/men/res/111664.html
I've seen that guy you found from Adam4Adam. Here's a podcast about his performing, his husband, and being a gay little person.

Also, MacTire13, you are adorable and hot. Anytime you want to provide us (or me) with homemade images of naked little person hotness, feel free. It will be appreciated greatly, I promise.
Agreed mactire13 is hot!!
Good to see this get active again. I wish I could contribute more, but I just haven't found anything new to share. Damn you, internet! :-p

Yea mactire you are very sexy i must say!
I have seen this guy many times online and he normally shows up in a "gay little person" search. He has a partner which is why he probably does not reply to anyone. Very hot guy.
I have had the LP fantasy for 5 years now and I am pretty relieved to know that others like me are not having much luck finding anything online or in person. There was a hot and very nice LP on Manhunt I was chatting with for a while but we lived too far apart to pursue anything. His name was Fabuliciousqueerboi or close to that.
The guy below lives in my town and I heard he works out at my gym but I have not seen him yet.
I remember watching Little People Big World, they went to a LPA convention and son Zach was hanging out with his Litlle Person friends at the pool- one of his friends was hot- don't remember the name, he had an Italian look- dark hair....anyone remember this/have pics?
I had seen that episode too and I agree. I saw a pic from an LPA Convention a few years back of the men's soccer team and they were all completely hot and all had shirts off. Cant find that pic anywhere.

I don't or can not say I have a thing for midgets, but one Saturday a guy rang our bell he was not a midget but what's referred to as a dwarf. Straight good looking with a great face chest and ass. He was going door to door selling magazines. Next day I heard that there were several going door to door it was in the paper because soliciting in that area was against the law. They were not arrested or fined but told to move on.
Anyway he came in and showed mags. he had we asked if he had the advocate or any other gay one he got red in the face we said do not get nervous we never offer blow jobs to guys that do not want them. He stared and both my partner and I saw he was half hard now. We finally decided on GQ but said we were not sure he sai dis it that price my partner said no we want to suck you off. He was not fully boned. Said I got time but I do not have to do anything? In teh bedroom my partner sucked his cock I deep rimmed him twice he said thanks we signed for a good deal on GQ an dthat was that grin. Never saw him again.
One time, I saw a Dwarf missionary for the LDS church near my house. This shocked me, because I was given the impression the church did not send LPs on missions (I attended for awhile, and was told that me serving a mission would be highly unlikely, or "an extremely rare case.") I actually went to the church's website and requested to be visited by the missionaries, in hopes of him being the one to stop by; if I saw him near my house, I could only assume I was in his area. Sadly, when I was finally visited 3 weeks later, it was a pair of sister missionaries. :-( I didn't want to be rude though, so I let them in from the heat, gave them some water, and let them do their thing. Still wish the Dwarf missionary had come by...
i'm so gla dup osated those pictures i have been looking for dwarfs (midgets ) gay guys into this i love it would love ot play with them they are so cute and sexy looking too hee hee
thank you for posting hoped can find more i woul dlove to see dwarfs in gay porn too hee hee hee anyone have that as well ???<winks> hee hee
naked warm friendliest hugz
I actually have Mike Kuhn's nude photos if anyone is interested. He's that weightlifter everyone was talking about earlier.
definitely- post them!!
Please? :-D
Sweet- ok...who exactly is Mike Kuhn- googled him, but nothing on a little person came up.....(Why did I ask to see the pics??? Hey- cock is cock )
I'm now inspired to share a few pics from my private collection. No, not of me. ;-) Ones that were sent to me by other gay LPs. I'll pick out a few good ones and upload them soon.
It's Mike Kuhns not Kuhn. And please do Mac
Looking forward to the collection, MAC!!!!!!
Yeah, if you Google "Mike Kuhns" it find all sorts of stuff on him; pictures and video of him weightlifting (nothing too revealing, but still all of him in very formfitting attire. ), and even a link to his FB profile. I hadn't realized how decorated of a weightlifter he was, he's won a quite a lot of competitions and awards in his weight class!
And my pictures will come, I promise; just need a chance to go through my external HDD with my collection to pic some good ones.
I have a few videos of Kuhns jerking off and cumming as well but not sure where to upload them to share.

What's in a name? There can exist a natural predilection for forming an opinion on a band (or solo artist hiding behind a particular nom de plume) before clapping ears on what matters most: the music. First impressions count after all, but we also know that we mustn't judge a book by its cover. I always remember seeing the name "Radiohead" in print before hearing a single note, and wondering just what the head of a radio might look like, or why any right thinking band would want to be named after one. Then of course I heard second album The Bends, swiftly followed by a witnessing of the hypnotic video for "Fake Plastic Trees" on Top of The Pops, and I was hooked – any issues I might have had about the name disappearing almost instantly. Similarly, "The War On Drugs" might suggest a House of Commons Select Committee – militant MPs doggedly debating the merits of anti-drug legislation – but is in fact a band led by Adam Granduciel and Kurt Vile specialising in a beautifully realised kind of ambient rock and roll. Lucid, laconic and liberally lovely, it certainly doesn't push any right wing agenda.
Picking band names is a horrible business. My very first band was the dubiously monikered "The Initials" (although in my defence I was 11 years old, so back off right?), the names hurtling steadily downhill from there. Next came "Starsky" (why we didn't opt for "Hutch" remains a mystery to this day), then "Red Star Belgrade" ("It's an obscure Serbian football team, it'll be cool" insisted a fellow band member), until finally "The Dendrons" – a truly terrible play on the name of a particular woody plant being all you need to know before swallowing your own fist in embarrassment – marked the final nail in the coffin for that particular band incarnation. It's no wonder I decided to go solo for a number of years, preferring to recite my own Sunday name whenever anyone asked in the pub, "what's your band called?". In fact only recently did I find myself mired in the painful business of pinging potential band names back and forth with my merry band of players, finally settling on the nomenclature Australian firefighters give to a modest blaze responsible for starting a bush fire: The Lonesome Fire. Never mind whatever other connotations it might have, something with humble beginnings which grows to be massively fierce was a strong enough metaphor for us.
"Vampire Weekend" is a classic example. Perhaps more suggestive of a morbid goth band, moody and mascara-d, they are anything but. Preppy, sharp and coiffured, they trade in neat one-liners and sparse rhythmic pop. Their new album "Modern Vampires of the City" (yet more misdirection) is a strong collection of songs, just as quirky as their breakthrough debut and more instant than their second long player "Contra". With touches of the Graceland-era Paul Simon sound that they visited earlier in their career still in evidence, combined with more sophisticated digital tricks than heard before, it's a confident album and our Record of Note on the show this week.Also on the show is some Live on Arrival from a band who began life as The Shakedown Sound only to end up borrowing their name from a Willard Manus novel about an eccentric who works in a circus freak show: Mott The Hoople. Undercover comes from a solo artist who needn't have worried about whether his name worked, such was the eternal nature of the music from a certain Neil Young. Add that to music from Deer Tick, Laura Veirs, The Lumineers, Electric Soft Parade and more and you have a veritable smorgasbord of appellations ready to be examined. And the name of our little show? Simple! The Roddy Hart Show, this Thursday at 10.05pm on BBC Radio Scotland.

Jubes is a tasty, fruit-based dessert that's high in fiber, but has zero grams of cholesterol and fat. It's based around a sweet tasting dish called Nata-de-Coco, which is very popular among the health-conscious. These fruity, juicy treats can be incorporated into mixed drinks, desserts such as ice cream and jello, or they can just be eaten by themselves. This one comes in a great grape flavor.

|I'm not a big fan of artificial grape flavor, so this isn't my favorite Jubes. But, if you're alright with that taste, this is light, sweet and has that strange chewy texture that Nata de Coco is all about. It's delicious, and the liquid can be saved for cocktails!

Do you recommend breast augmentation for Poland syndrome?
Breast implants are often used for Poland's syndrome but it is typically more complicated than routine augmentation. It is more like a reconstructive procedure. As for insurance coverage you should ask your carrier; they may deny it because it isn't a functional problem or because it is pre-existing.
Thank you for your question. Breast implants are often used to treat Poland's syndrome.
However in many cases soft tissue expansion is required to expand and enlarge the breast before implants can be placed. In addition if the asymmetry between the 2 breasts is great, following soft tissue expansion, the uninvolved breast may need to be revised to match the side that is being reconstructed.
Be sure to have your surgeon investigate the possibility of insurance coverage for this congenital condition.

More than 200 Applications Received for Mount Sinai's New Masters in Health Care Delivery Leadership Program
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
Application period ends August 1st; Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai offers first medical school program addressing critical challenges in health care
NEW YORK– May 20, 2014 /Press Release/ ––
Fewer than three weeks since it was first announced, more than 200 prospective enrollees have made an inquiry about the Masters in Health Care Delivery Leadership Program, offered by the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai's Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences. The unique 21-month program, mainly administered online, was designed with the goal of developing the knowledge and skills of future leaders for the nation's hospitals and academic medical centers and was envisioned, in part, as a means of addressing the challenges brought about by the new era of healthcare reform.
"We are pleased with the response so far to this unique offering, which reinforces Mount Sinai's role at the center of academic research and medical education during this era of healthcare reform and transformation," said Alan J. Moskowitz, MD, Professor and Vice Chair of the Department of Health Evidence and Policy and Faculty Director of the MS in Health Care Delivery Leadership Program. "We see this course as a natural evolution of the pioneering initiatives in place across the Mount Sinai Health System."
Courses in this degree program will primarily be offered online, leveraging the vast resources available through the Mount Sinai Health System – one of the largest health systems in the United States, comprising seven hospital campuses and the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. The program, offered through the school's Department of Health Evidence and Policy, will provide students the competitive advantage required to provide strategic leadership in a changing landscape resulting from the federal Affordable Care Act, downward pricing pressures, and the need to demonstrate increased quality outcomes.
Students will have access to faculty experts at a unique setting – one that combines The Mount Sinai Hospital and the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. They will receive extensive training and instruction from prominent leaders in the following areas: change management, team-building, operations, finance, and mentorship through a dynamic online learning system that provides interaction with faculty and fellow students – and one which provides flexibility to accommodate busy schedules. This collaborative learning model, in addition to Mount Sinai's onsite residency program, will provide significant opportunity to further build and develop students' professional networks.
Applicants will receive a comprehensive evaluation for admission based upon their academic record, professional experience, leadership capabilities, major accomplishments, and motivation.
The curriculum will comprise three main components:
• Major health care delivery system forces and disruptors;
• Evidence-based frameworks for strategic leadership and effective management of health care delivery;
• Novel health care delivery models, including clinical and translational research innovations.
The application process is now open; applicants should visit www.icahn.mssm.edu/mshcdl for more information.
About the Mount Sinai Health System
The Mount Sinai Health System is an integrated health system committed to providing distinguished care, conducting transformative research, and advancing biomedical education. Structured around seven member hospital campuses and a single medical school, the Health System has an extensive ambulatory network and a range of inpatient and outpatient services—from community‐based facilities to tertiary and quaternary care.
The System includes approximately 6,600 primary and specialty care physicians, 12‐minority‐owned free‐standing ambulatory surgery centers, over 45 ambulatory practices throughout the five boroughs of New York City, Westchester, and Long Island, as well as 31 affiliated community health centers. Physicians are affiliated with the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, which is ranked among the top 20 medical schools both in National Institutes of Health funding and by U.S. News & World Report.News Source : More than 200 Applications Received for Mount Sinai's New Masters in Health Care Delivery Leadership Program

All HUNK
This makes all characters HUNK from Manix33's HUNK RE:ORC. Left for dead 2 characters are just as Manix33 made for Ellis. The Original characters have standard First Person arms, tried to figure it out but out of ideas. I recommend using the Tactical Medpack Black (Clean or Dirty) I think it looks better than Red if your going for that Tactical feel. Also I know i did not use the name HUNK on any of the characters cause in RE he is usually alone so he is not with these guys. Any Suggestions let me know. This mod acts weird with multiplayer.

can you fix the online animations? plzzz
If you can make it pls make a lady HUNK from RE Revelation. Actually I like HUNK so much and you did it with a good details on HUNK's skin.
Hello,Can you make Lady Hunk's mod for Zoey? I like Lady Hunk(from Resident Evil-Revelations),i want it !
Please help me~
Please help me~
Great addon! Love it! Do you take requests? If so I'd like you to make a pack where all 8 Survivors are Juggernauts from (da1barker,kostas, ifatallityyx)'s MW2 Model Pack. Let me know if this is possible.
Every survivor as HUNK Custom HUDS Custom Names Models have hand skins as well Works great offlineCons:
Models bug out when you are in an Online gameConclusion:
Fix the scripts so they work online because no one just wants offline models.
-Apocalyptic survivors -Nice models -Nice 3nd person view but... -Have arms but... -Replace all survivors (L4D1 and L4D2) -The tactical gilet (perfect for the medkit attachement in back, and really nice with bag medkit mod) -Gasmask, gloves ^^ -IconsCons:
No Fps arms for Left 4 Dead 1 survivors..... The FPS arms is not perfect with all weapons (distortion)... The textures arms are bad or not perfect with CS weapons.... Small bug at the shoulders level... Deformations of tactical textures when you use melee weapons... Please keep the original names of survivors because in game we do not know who is who XDConclusion:
A really nice mod, It's plaisant to play with this ^^ But please fix the bugs .... ;) A big thanks for your great work !!!! ^^
- Very epic looking characters - Fitting to zombie killing - Characters fit into lots of maps for story-line - Works for L4D1Cons:
- Names should match more (Ex: The Kid [then] DUKE Does not fit very well, all should be capitals if that's what your aiming for) - Sometimes it's difficult to tell them apart, VERY SLIGHTLYConclusion:
Either way, if you want to look cool tanking through zombies, this mod is for you. Just throwing this in there, if you could name the characters to your liking, that would be real sweet.
There are no bugs reported for this add-on.

Les Fermières Obsédées (Canada)
The Farming Obsessed is a collective made up of two artists from the visual arts (and Annie Baillargeon, Eugénie Cliche).
They have created an image of group based on the wearing of a uniform being constantly evolving and changing with the process. For this the uniform Farming become, somehow, accomplices or victims of the same frame narrative qu'uniformisées because they are based in one another, causing a kind of participatory endorsement to the actions of one or from each other. A ripple effect comparable to the massive standardization and lethargy of our modern societies. With time, this logo undergoes degradation and temporality suggesting the fervor of many struggles and positions. At the edge of the picture, the image of women as represented by the wearing of the uniform serves as their material transgression they desire as the reinvention and the overthrow of the picture in all its contemporaneity.
Benefits fo are at the crossroads of several disciplines such as dance, theater, music and visual arts.
They created poetic images and abstract taking their source in positioning concrete social. Their performances are like tableaux which are presented multiple symbolic pictures and metaphors that allude to our world in flux. They criticize the way the culture of North American mass too low in line with our core values. FO have timed choreography inspired by military conquest and attitudes, sometimes stereotyped and parodied, but mostly well calculated. They each offer their appearance as an attempt to define in the moment, in relation to the concerns that they are current. They use language that combines visual tragic, burlesque, the rhythm and the use of popular symbols. They provide a reflection on the state of the world and the tradition of silliness in which we are embedded. Fo deploy either as a decided to darken, army faded and sometimes as three characters lost. By a multitude of contrasts
confusing they come to hold their breath viewer never doubt what will propel it towards. Of refined gestures and diagrammed alongside dazzling fireworks that fill their eyes for a short moment. With some irony, they criticize our society of the spectacle which offers primary stereotypes as anchor .
For a fallen theater they embody different attitudes.
Performance-like revolutions here. Doing break with our schedules and everything that we
thought acquired mock ourselves, trying to fight ideologies that we do not fit in thwarting acquired meaning and symbolic to resist the fall that we threat at all times.
Since 2001 the FO have presented their work in various events in Quebec, Canada, Wales, in Northern Ireland , Australia, France and Poland.

I am disappointed. The fastening ring for the netting (which the string goes through to fasten the net to the pole) ripped through the material after only one use. I now have the string wrapped through and around the remaining netting which is unlikely to hold to for any amount of time.

Ladies and/or germs
After at least four years of trying out several out several different handguns, ammo, belts, holsters, etc I have finally decided upon what I want to carry. Now I want to have the rest of the carry system built.
I will want a belt, holster, mag/flashlight pouch (and possibly a handcuff pouch). I will want some exotic trimming on each piece. Most importantly, I have searched the net far and wide and have not found a single holster that all of what I want. So, I have no doubt that this is going to have to be completely custom. (not to mention I like the idea having one that no one else does)
It was said here recently that I could have it good/fast/cheap as long as I chose two. Well, because I intend to keep and use it for a very long time, money is of little concern. However, I am not the most patient person in the world. (Don't get me wrong, I know this is not going to happen overnight. But I can't wait a year and a half+ for this package.) And, because I don't mind paying well for this, my expectations are pretty high.
If you are one of the many leather artisans that frequent here and have a relatively short waiting list, I would love to speak with you about what I would like done.
If you (like me) have no possible way of molding leather for yourself but have dealt with a maker that you think might be willing/able to help me, I would greatly appreciate you pointing me in the right direction.
Thank you all for your help.
