Alexx Michael from Shameless
Now a few of you are probably going, "Who the fuck is this?" Well, Alexx is a dude from Germany who's put out a few CDs over the years featuring everybody from Tracii Guns, Bruce Kulick, Eric Singer, Jani Lane, Keri Kelli, Gilby Clarke, Stevie Rachelle, Steve Summers, Kristy Majors, and every other guy who once played on the Sunset Strip. Alexx has been emailing us for years asking to be interviewed and during a moment of weakness, we actually agreed. We figured since he's dealt with a lot of the people we rip on he might have some good stories, plus we like to do something different every now and then. Actually, this didn't turn out that bad, even if the guy does look like he's been trapped in a time warp. Enjoy!
1. What are you up to? This is your only chance to promote whatever it is you do.
Getting ready 4 the tour, doing a lot of promotion here for the release of our new disc "Splashed" and for the Tuff/Shameless England tour.. Getting everything ready for the KISS tribute "Undressed" that we gonna release next march together with a lot of cool bands from all over the world. Different to all other tributes this will be a tribute with only songs from the KISS album "Unmasked". there will be Rock, Hardrock, Glam, Punk and Industrial bands on it. We will have 2 songs on the disc. "Talk to Me" and "Tomorrow".When i don?t have any SHAMELESS work i?m watching Ebay.com to find parts that i can?t find here for my Trans Ams.
2. How did you get model Amber Smith to appear on the cover of your new CD?
Right after we did the first disc, i saw her on a magazine cover and thought that she?s really hot. I sent her a e-mail last year and told her i want her on the cover. She ansered me within 2 days that she wants to do it. Amber has a really cool website www.allamber.com with a lot of photos and informations about her.
3. Your bio says that you formed Shameless in 1989 and broke up in 1991. Then recorded the debut in 1998 with an all-star line-up of Eighties hairband refugees for hire. What the fuck did you do for the other half-a-dozen years and why not form a band with some German guys?
After our singer was out of the band we looked for a replacement but we couldn?t anyone that was right. One singer used his trips to sell drugs on the way. The other one set a friends appartment on fire, the other one thought he?s Axel Rose and so on. Good singers are rare. Most of them sound bad when they sing english and it sounds even worse when they sing in german. And the worst part was that none of them could actually sing. I also tried out 2 singers from England but they where to afraid to come to germany to play here. So after 2 years i gave up and joined another local band "Provoke" where i met B.C. After that band broke up in 1995 i was just busy doin? other stuff and write songs. It?s almost impossible to find people here. I was always into Rock like KISS, Girlschool, Motley Crue but most of the musicans here where just trying to copy other bands like Metallica, Queensryche, Manowar or later Nirvana or Rammstein. Those are all bands that i never like at all. And i?m probably too lazy to follow any stupid trends. I just can?t play music that i don?t like !!
4. What hard rock/heavy metal band should give it up and call it a day?
As long as you have fun, there is no reason to stop. O.K. maybe if you are in Dokken you should think about it. Also Music isn?t just like a job. It?s a life style. I wouldn?t be able 2 just throw my instruments away and say "I?m done" and i also don?t think that anyone like Jani Lane, Rudy sarzo, Nikki Sixx, Sebastian Bach or Bruce Kulick is able to do that.
5. Rate the following bass players on a scale of 1 to 10. 1 being a hack and 10 being a bass God.
Nikki Sixx = 10 – the last time i saw him – Since he writes most of the music he probably knows the best what to play on the songs.
Gene Simmons = 10 from 1977 – 1980
Jerry Dixon = 6 I never paid attention to him or his playing but he must be good since he?s always playing
Bobby Dall = 8 i think his stuff on the records fit always perfect with the songs and when i saw him live last year he kicked major ASS
Robbie Crane = 8 I never saw him playing but Stevie Rachelle & Keri Kelli had only the best things to say about him
Vinnie Chaz = 5 – I never saw him live so it?s hard 2 judge him from the record-
Juan Croucier = 5 I couldn?t tell. The bass on the Ratt records was not that loud and i only saw him live 10 years ago
Dana Strum = 7 He?s a good player and good producer.
Rachel Bolan = 10 he always played really tight and well to the rest of the music which is more important than someone playing leadguitar on a bass
Todd Chase = 8 Great playing on "What comes Arround"
6. You?re a well-known KISS fanatic. There are upwards of a dozen KISS related links alone at your site. What?s with the KISS infatuation and what's the most amount of money you?ve spent on some stupid piece of KISS memorabilia?
Well i think KISS is the reason that most of the Metal Sludge bands are actually musicans or started music. The list of names is endless (Anthrax, Poison, Pretty Boy Floyd, Skid Row, Keri Kelli, Marilyn Manson). They changed Rock?n Roll 4ever. Other bands or critics who complain about the merchandise or the reunion or farewell tour are most times people who are in less successfull bands or magazines. The Success proves them right. You can?t compare KISS to any other band. The day i saw KISS was the day i wanted 2 play music. The most i ever spent was $6000 for Paul Stanley?s Rock?n Roll Over Boots.
7. You?re from Germany, which isn?t exactly known as a hotbed for glam bands. Do you ever get any shit from people over there for being glam?
Back when i played in the original Shameless band we had a lot of trouble all the time ?cause all the guys from other bands hated us ?cause we had the most chicks at our concerts and we wore so much make-up. I can?t tell you what the people think about it now ?cause the only response i get, is from the website.I never cared about the other musicans here in munich ?cause most of them are dishonest asskissin? idiots. There was never a glamscene in germany ?cause that kind of music was mostly handled with dissrespect . Not only bands like poison but almost every band out of LA. The record companies just cast their bands now in stupid TV shows. Spinal Tap is Alive. All you hear and see are techno coverversions.
All the US bands like Poison, Ratt or Warrant hardly or never played here when they where big, so the fans felt cheated. That?s the reason why Poison wouldn?t be able to play here ?cause nobody knows who they are anymore. Sure there music was played on the radio but back in 1987 or 89 there was nothing here like MTV and they didn?t play live. The bands that alway played here like Ozzy, Metallica or Bon Jovi still draw huge crowds cause they always played here. Even band like Manowar or Wasp are still doin good here because of that. I don?t think it was the bands fault, but their managers and record companies never thought about the fact that there is a place called "Europe".
8. Of all the guys you?ve had play on your CD, what musician was the most difficult to work with and why?
Everyone who showed up was real easy 2 work with. Mark St. John never showed up. I called him the day of recordings but he sounded like he was totally wasted who barely was able to speak. I also know that Brent Woods is probably still pissed at me ?cause he was supposed to play on the first disc, but when i was in LA, he always said "Call Me Tomorrow about the recordings" ?cause he was busy with some other stuff. I gave up after 6 days. He called me back when we where allready mixing the CD. He was really pissed at me ?cause when i couldn?t get a hold of him we used Tracii Guns for the 2 remaining songs. I was just not able to stop the recordings until he was whenever available. Everybody else showed up in time. but beside of that, we had a lot of fun all the time doin?the records, everything was always real easy. Also LA is much nicer in january than germany. Don?t forget all the beautiful girls and Sushi Places in California !!!
9. Of all the singers in the world, you had Steve ?Sex? Summer and Stevie Rachelle sing on your songs. For the love of God, couldn?t you find anybody else?
No Cause they kick Ass and i never wanted anybody else. Nobody sounds like Steve. I know some people don?t like his voice but that?s the same with anything that?s unusual. You love it or you hate it. I hear that all the time. I just think Steve & Stevie fit perfect to the music. I don?t think James Hettfield or Mark Slaughter would fit.
10. Yes or no, has Alexx ever:
Had gay sex = No
Met Gene Simmons = Yes, A few times but Paul is way cooler !!
Had a fetish for guys named Steve = No, I?m not into guys but i think he looks cool. Girls like him
Wore extensions = I tried one for my penis but i never had any on my head.
Thought Pretty Boy Floyd should be platinum = Yes, "leather boys" had great songs. Just the production and the mix could have been much better.
Hung out with a Nazi = No, even it?s amazing that those idiots are still all over the world.
Realized it?s not 1989 anymore = Yes, since 1990. I just love the music we do and i was always more into bands that sound and look cool. I don?t care for TV casted bands or techno and i always hated Grunge and that shit. Marilyn Manson is awesome but i wouldn?t be interested to play that kind of music. I was also never into Trash or Speed Metal. I LOVE ROCK?N ROLL !!!!!
Dreamed about being in a band with Udo from Accept = Of course – i alway have nightmares about it.
Seen Steve Summers or Stevie Rachelle without something on their heads = All the time, if you check our website www.shamelessrock.com , there are pictures of Steve w/o a hat from the recordings of "Queen 4 A Day". For those who don?t have that CD, there is also some videofootage from the recordings on the disc where you see Steve w/o a hat. By the way – our new disc "Splashed" also has 2 vidoes as a bonus. Featuring a live performance of "Lick It Up" together with Bruce Kulick" and Stevie with 3 different hats.
Kissed another man = No, there are too many girls
11. When Eric Singer played drums on your 1st CD, ?Backstreet Anthems,? did you guys have him sit on a booster seat so he could reach the drums? 12. Mike ?The Sack? Fasano was the drum tech for your 2nd CD, ?Queen For A Day.? Did you ever see his nutsack? |
Tracii Guns, a dude, Gilby Clakre, Alexx, and Kristy Krash Majors |
13. What rock star deserves a smack in the mouth and why?
I don?t know but i would like to say something about people who make fun about Vince Neil drinking so much and beeing so out of shape. I don?t think anyone who haven?t lost a kid should even try to judge him. Even it?s been 7 years since then, how could he forget. This is probably the worst thing that can happen to anyone.
14. How did you get Jani Lane to do background vocals on the song ?Far Away?? Did you pay him in cash, beer, or cheeseburgers?
He did some recordings with Keri one night and he liked the songs we worked on "Far Away" and "Lonely nite in Paradise". He did both tracks in 20 minutes. Since i never drink beer the only thing i offered him was a diet coke. HE seemed really nice and from what i know from Keri, he must be an awesome cook.
15. The last of Alexx:
Last CD you purchased = Shakira -Underneath your cloth and Killer Barbies, for all of you that never heard of Killer Barbies, they are a spanish Punk band with a girl singing and she?s great looking and singing. check em out www.killerbarbies.de
Last Germany porno you saw that had shitting in it = The movie was called "Metal Sludge visits Switzerland". I?m too much into doin?my own porns. B.C. knows way more about porn than i do. He?s the pornminator of the band.
Last time you heard Rammstein on the radio = I don?t even have a radio in my house. Radio and Rammstein are horrible. If you guys would live here for more than a week you would make sure that there is no radio in sight. Germany is so different from the states. Just look at the girls, cars and sushi places. ? always have to laugh when Eric Singer tells me how much he loves german cars while i live in germany and only drive american cars.
Last rock star you shook hands with = Keri Kelli
Last time you listened to the Scorpions = Last week
Last Kiss concert you attended = Anaheim March 2000 while we recorded "Queen 4 A Day".
Last day it was sunny in Germany = Yesterday, it?s raining a lot here but we where lucky for the last 2 weeks. But it started 2 rain last night.
Last time you wore make-up = On the last tour.
Last time you visited a sex store = I can?t remember but i?ve been on www.ideepthroat.com last night.
Last American band to play Germany = I think Manowar but the last concert i saw in germany was Mariln Manson.
16. What is your expert KISS opinion on Tommy Thayer & Eric Singer wearing the original make-up?
I think it?great to see Eric doin? it ?cause he?s not only a good friend of mine but also the best drummer that KISS ever had. Tommy Thayer is a different thing but if that?s what they wanna do – I?m sure they have there reasons and it?s probably a dream come true for tommy. I can?t say anything about Tommy ?cause i was never into Black?n Blue and i hardly know him. I understand Gene and Paul in someway ?cause i traveled with Ace in 1995 for three weeks thru europe when we organised a KISS Convention tour with him. He got lost in a restaurant on the way from the table to the restroom and didn?t know where he was 99% of all the time. But they should rather have Tommy wear a Bruce Kulick mask since Bruce is the one who belongs in KISS when Ace isn?t.
17. Do you realize the band name Shameless and your name of Alexx, with 2 t?s, went out of style back around the same time Sweet FA did? Yes but why should i change it now. I had this name since 1987 and also the name SHAMELESS since 1989. The second x in Alexx stands for Xaver. I was born Alexander Xaver Michael . That?s the story about it. I know Nikki Sixx was the first known with 2 X but he was not the first who walked on a stage and i won?t be the last. And i never heard "Sweet FA". Where they good ? |
Shamless 1989 |
18. This is a lyric from one of your songs:
?Hello boys and girls
Welcome to our show
Good times come and bad times go
You wanna join us ? lets go
It?s Friday night ? don?t stay at home
The girls in the city look so pretty
C?mon move your feet
cause there?s music on the street
You don?t need a passport to come with us
Ready for the show ? c?mon lets Rock N Roll?
Do you realize that most 4th graders could come up with better material?
Yes, but who wants another "Smells (stinks) like teenspirit (Nirvana)". I leave that to other people. But I think we also have other lyrics with a much deeper message then "Steal the girls" or "Backseat Action". There are tracks like "Lonely Nite in Paradise, Getaway, Love Game, Talk to me or "Don?think i love you" that are based on true stories. We play Rock and i don?t wanna sing about the news on CNN. I also can?t write about any crazy visons ?cause i don?t take drugs. Music is to enjoy your live and to forget about the trouble at least for a little. A lot of other bands from the 80?s forgot about that and are ashamed of the songs they wrote in the 80?s. We?re SHAMELESS , we have no shame and we don?t care. I also don?t have a horse that i could write about.
Why else do u think records from Warrant like "Dog Eat Dog" or Motley Crue?s "Generation Swine" sold that bad. Ask their fans why they didn?t like the way they changed their music, image and lyrics. Even i have 2 admit that i still think that "Dog Eat Dog" is the best album that Warrant ever did and "Generation Swine" was an awesome CD but maybe 2 different from their previous stuff. But that?s just my opinion and i have my reasons for writing songs like "Nonstop City" and looking the way i do.
19. Do you actually think the people you get to play on your CDs really enjoy your music, or have you figured it out that they?re only doing it for a paycheck?
Some of them are probably doin?it only because of the money but we all have 2 make money to survive and buy stuff on ebay. The others enjoy it as much as i do. Someone like Keri or Eric are more concerned about the quality of the music they perform than the money they get for it. I don?t think they would play something that they think sucks.
20. Time for Metal Sludge?s Word Association. We mention a name and you give us your thoughts.
Traci Guns = Tracii rules !!
Keri Kelli = the best songwriter, guitarplay and beerdrinker
Bruce Kulick = I can?t say enough good things about Bruce. We know each other for a long time and he?s a great guy
Stevie Rachelle = Stevie "workaholic" Rachelle –
Steve Summers = The Voice of Glam – Love him or hate him but u can?t stop him
Gilby Clarke = Great guy and great family and very talented
Kristy Krash Majors = Great Ieas for guitarsolos
Eric Singer = Great drummer, great friend
Nikki Sixx = Call Tommy and Vince !!!
Gene Simmons = w/o Paul Stanley there wouldn?t be any music on the KISS records.
Vinnie Vincent = You owe me money
Eddy Money = Idiot
Alexx added those last two names in Word Association, just in case you were wondering.
For more info on Alexx and Shameless, you can visit www.ShamelessRock.com.

Wine and Dine: Drinking Alcohol Associated With Lower Type 2 Diabetes Risk in Men
Tossing back a couple of brews while watching the big game could be protecting you from getting type 2 diabetes, according to researchers in the United States and Australia.
Researchers, reporting the results of their study in the October issue of Diabetes, found that drinking even modest amounts of any kind of alcohol-beer, wine or liquor-lowered the incidence of type 2 diabetes in men when compared with teetotalers.
Dr. Katherine M. Conigrave of the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, Massachusetts, and colleagues studied the drinking habits of 46,892 male health professionals for 12 years. The subjects filled out questionnaires every two years.
Having a drink or two five days a week offered the greatest protection against diabetes, researchers said. When compared with those who drank infrequently, the risk of getting type 2 diabetes was reduced by seven percent for each day per week that alcohol was consumed. Those who drank between 15 and 29 grams of alcohol per day (one or two drinks) lowered their risk of getting diabetes by 36 percent compared to those who avoided drinking altogether.
Even the few participants who said they drank heavily-defined as about 50 grams of alcohol per day-were at lower risk of getting type 2 diabetes.
"Our findings suggest that frequent alcohol consumption conveys the greatest protection against type 2 diabetes, even if the level of consumption per drinking day is low," researchers concluded. "Beverage choice did not alter risk."
Editor's note: Remember to check with a healthcare professional about consuming alcohol if you have diabetes. Alcohol interacts with many medications and is high in calories.

Multiculturalism — Question
2:38 pm
Baroness Hanham (Conservative)
My Lords, in talking about people living together and communities coming together, it is very hard to say what one approves of and what one does not approve of. It is absolutely essential that we all understand that in this country we have an enormous number of different nationalities and cultures. The one way we can be sure that we will live together is by understanding the nature of those cultures. When I say there is no definition, there is no definition but, in thinking about it even faintly, one would say that multiculturalism is the coming together of communities and the recognition of those differences.

Significance and Use
This test method is a relative measure of the degree of oxidation present in coal. It does not determine the quantitative amount of oxidized coal present. It is only intended to serve as a guide to the supplier, buyer, and user for selecting coals for metallurgical use.
Note 1—The values shown in Table 1 are based on the transmittance obtained using the original procedure (wavelength at 520 nm, 17-mm light path, 2– to 3-min boiling time, dilution of the extract to 80 mL). At these conditions, coals that had transmittance values greater than 90 % were considered to be unoxidized, coals less than 80 % were considered to be oxidized, and coals between 80 and 90 % were considered suspect. As this procedure becomes accepted as the standard and more experimental data are gathered, modifications to these cutoff values are expected. Note that lower rank bituminous coals are more easily extracted than higher rank coal.
1. Scope
1.1 This colorimetric test method describes the determination of the relative degree of oxidation by alkali extraction of coals that are high volatile A bituminous to low volatile bituminous in rank.
1.2 This test cannot be sensitive to thermally oxidized coal. It is intended for coals that may be oxidized as a result of weathering.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.4 The values stated in SI units shall be regarded as standard.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.

Who would of thought you could have too much applesauce? 10 gallons of applesauce ready to can this morning. What was I thinking?? Good thing we like applesauce! 4 more boxes of apple to process...hmm maybe I'll call someone wanting to learn to can and share..... |
Follow-Up Postings:
Wow! That's many many quart jars. :) How about cooking some down to apple butter? Frozen apple pies? Dave |
I can only dream of having that many apples! |
- Posted by chrisb_sc_z7 7 (My Page) on Wed, Oct 17, 12 at 10:33
How many trees does it take to produce that many apples? How old are they? Just wondering. My burgeoning orchard should start producing in the next couple of years. |

I am just getting started on my master bath decisions and am considering a granite tub deck as opposed to tile. I would love to see any photos of this from those of you that have done the same....also any pros/cons. Thanks! |

We used a seamless piece of granite on our tub deck. I'm very happy with how it came out. Here's a picture taken in progress... I'd say the pros are no grout lines and visual continuity from the vanities. Cons would have to be cost. |
Love this! Thanks treasuretheday. |
- Posted by countrygal_905 (My Page) on Fri, Mar 30, 12 at 8:24
I need to make the same decision soon. Our project was on hold for a while. I would love to see more pictures. |
- Posted by mydreamhome (My Page) on Fri, Mar 30, 12 at 11:00
Pros-No grout, easier to dust, easier to clean Cons-Costs more than tile, greater risk of etching Here's ours... And a few others I had on file... Hope this helps! |

I need help guys. I'm not sure if I am lesbian or bisexual or even gay at all! Any advice to help me figure it out? I'm pretty sure I'm bisexual but I'm not completley positive. HELP!!!!!
And believe me, it's not an easy process, but my advice to you is not worry about it. And just decide that you're going to be attracted to who you're going to be attracted to. Even if sometimes you don't understand it. Labels aren't all that necessary. It can be comforting, but ultimately, it's just putting yourself into a box. So, I would say to just sit, and not worry about it. You're young. Who cares?
And I like your name, it's very clever. xDD
Did you meet your fortune teller?
Do it up, it's always stellar
Thanks for the advice. I'm leaning more to the bisexual side but I'm still not totally sure. And thanks. I like my name too. ;-)
Very recently actually.
Don't stress about it, and don't worry about what other people think.
I think that was my main problem, I'm scared of being judged, and of losing my friends.
Kay, I dont really know what I am talking about here, but maybe think about the reasons you think you are les/bi?
Why do you think you might be, are you attracted to girls?
Hope that helps..
'When I was calling for the answer that you probably shouldn't know.
When it feels like flames surrounding me here.'
...of being judged.
I care what people think of me and I know that I shouldn't. Horrible habit. I wish I didn't so much. I think I am les/bi because yes I am attracted to girls, and guys. The attraction is stronger towards girls but I still do like guys. Thanks. Your advice did help some.
If you see an available girl that interests you, date her, see where it goes.
If you see an available guy that interests you, date him, see where it goes.
Keep doing the above until 10 years pass.
After 10 years, look back, and you'll have your answer.
"People who are happy are slugs... They do not move the human race forward."
-- Camille Paglia, on Oasis
That is good advice. I think I might do that but in a shorter period of time like 2 or 3 years. I am leaning more towards bisexual, but again, I'm still not sure. Thanks for the help
I have been there completely...and still sort of am. Jeff is right you just have to have different relationships and see what works. Don't worry about labeling yourself yet. :)
...that I do live my life with labels.
Not everyone in my life has a label, but some of them do. Don't get me wrong. I will definitely try to erase some of those labels. Thanks for the words of advice.
this is the state that was, is, and is to be, but as they say, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT!!!! and if you find your self doing so, listen to Alfred E Newman,(what?, me worry?) and you'll at least have a good laugh!!!

Tyler Wiechman writes about the challenges the Millennial Generation has overcome and the ones the Millennial Generation still faces.
One of the things I hear most from young adults and recent graduates in the work force is that they can't find a job. We've all been there and it sucks. We've discussed building your resume and reaching out to potential employers in previous posts, but one of the biggest obstacles is getting hung up on what you want to do as opposed to just building up experience.
Getting a job in your industry is hard. Getting a job in a specific sector of an industry in today's trying times is even more difficult, but not impossible. The last part of this post will be short but it focuses on one crucial thing: Don't throw away an opportunity.
After applying to a couple hundred jobs something will stick--but maybe its not perfect. I've had friends, colleagues, and classmates through away opportunities because they were holding out for something better. Don't make this mistake. An empty resume will get you nowhere.
Let's say you're an engineer with a chemical engineering degree and you don't land your dream job--yes you may be surprised to hear this, but its happening more and more frequently. So don't throw away the job offer in mechanical engineering if it comes along. You may enjoy it, but at the very least your resume has something on it. What if you're an English major that volunteering with nonprofits, worked as an editor, but has had very few long term employment opportunities. Don't throw away the technical writer position because you're afraid you may hate it. Try it out. Something else may come along, but never give up an opportunity without having another one waiting for you on your plate.
One last bit of advice that ties into the building your resume theme. Use your resources. Not only can you use linkedin and other social networking and career building websites, but google some local societies in your town/region that may help promote your skills or career search. Engineers/Doctors without Borders, Habitat for Humanity, Other Non-Profits, Rotary Clubs, et cetera. These are all great places to network if needed!!

Wanna know more about Nikki and the kind of power she can have over your mind then try out these quick 5 minute audio clips. TELL ME THIS ISN'T A VOICE YOU WANT TO LISTEN TO!
Your Nikki Erotic Hypnosis Starter Gift Set includes:
Because 1 - Obey (41:41) What does it feel like to be deeply entranced? What does it feel like to fall so deep under hypnosis that you cannot think? What does it feel like to follow hypnotic suggestions, just because? Let Nikki show you exactly what that feels like for this forty-minute session. Allow Nikki to take you down deep into hypnosis and give you a little taste of the pleasure of mindless obedience. Get ready to make your first of what will certainly be many visits to Nikki's "Playground."
Although this is a mandatory introduction for all good obedient subjects who want to continue to with the Just Because series, don't expect Nikki to let you go without a fun little test of your obedience that will leave you wanting to come back again, just because.
Erection (30:44) This session will quickly find its way into your daily hypnotic programming regime, assuming you wish to experience harder, larger, stronger, and more pleasurable erections. Nikki begins with a subtle, casual induction that will sneak up on you before you realize how deeply her words have taken you. Nikki gives you the opportunity to make some "adjustments" to the way your body experiences and proudly displays your arousal. The session includes a rather wicked ending that will leave you excited and anxious to relieve the pressure. This session has only a hint of D/s content.
Erotic Crystal (46:41) This is a perfect session for either men or women who want help in the training of their subconscious to go quickly and deeply into euphoric hypnotic trance. What could be more irresistible than a sexy woman seducing you with her voice, and using a beautiful crystal pendant to mesmerize you? Nikki uses her abilities to help you condition your mind to focus and let go in order to enjoy more intense and enjoyable hypnotic experiences. You will come to crave the wonderful feeling of relaxing to Nikki's seductive voice… and submitting to hypnosis with Nikki. Training with this session will prepare you to have more profound experiences with any other hypnosis sessions that you might listen to. D/s and graphic erotic content.
Foreplay (32:19) Foreplay is a shorter, but very addictive piece of audio that seems designed for people who are relatively new to the erotic hypnosis scene. Foreplay does what the name implies. It lowers the participant's inhibitions and builds arousal toward a state of mind in which he is better prepared for a more intimate experience. Yes, it's about seduction. Nikki is VERY good at that. She is also very good at hypnosis. So be warned that this is a session that can sneak up on you. Be prepared to be thoroughly seduced by Nikki's sensuous voice and engaging personality. What at first seems quite subtle gradually becomes irresistible. This session also establishes a new post-hypnotic trigger that can be given to someone you trust to use if you want to experience the hypnotic effects in a RL relationship. While beginners will find this a very accessible introduction to erotic hypnosis mp3s, those of us who have listened to a lot of Nikki's work, especially her brilliant Because series, can get much enjoyment out of it, too. It has the high technical quality we are used to, but also contains some of our favorite triggers, at particularly intense and wholly appropriate moments, to enhance our experience even more.
Falling Deeper (12:09) This session is to help train your subconscious to fall fast and deep whenever listening to one of Nikki's sessions that uses the trigger "Falling Deeper Now". This is not a deep trance hypnosis session, all suggestions to relax have been excluded. It is meant to listen to while you are going about your daily activities.
Masturbation (48:14) You may or may not need help with is obsession, but for those of you who want to feel what is like to be constantly obsessed with masturbation, this one is for YOU. A Hypnofantasy original written by Bob (this one would HAVE to be written by a man) and performed by Nikki. Get ready to FEEL the urge 24/7. Interaction REQUIRED, no D/s content.
Refresh (33:14) This session will take you VERY DEEP in the classic style of Because. It allows you to REVive and REFresh any current Post Hypnotic Suggestions or Triggers that you wish to make stronger for YOU. It is also a hypnotic conditioning file that will help you GO DEEPER with anyone you choose to trance with.
Renew Red (33:12) This session will take you VERY DEEP in the classic style of Because. It allows you to REVive and REFresh any current Post Hypnotic Suggestions or Triggers that you wish to make stronger for YOU. It is also a hypnotic conditioning file that will help you GO DEEPER with anyone you choose to trance with.

The Ladies Ultimate pleasure Giftset includes:
Bi-Wonder (17:46) Have you ever wondered about your sexual orientation? Are you bi, gay or straight? In this mildly erotic hypnosis session Ginger Matthews takes you through a series of three simple subconcious tests that will help you determine exactly which sex turns you on. The simplicity of this session is the beauty of it. Just sit back, relax and be prepared to experience a fun and interesting way to determine your sexual pleasure. In the end Ginger will remind you and allow you to feel comfortable in whatever pleasure you choose.
Euphoria (29:15) Ever wanted to try a pleasure drug where you feel warm, erotic and tingle all over? Well that is exactly what Euphoria is designed to do. Take a journey through the many doorways of pleasure until you find the Euphoria buried deep inside of you. Session written by Bob Brown
Guilty Pleasure (28:11) Did you ever have a guilty thought? A secret fantasy that sits in the back of your mind and provides you with some intimate pleasure. Well this session is going to encourage to enjoy those thoughts and give you the freedom to enjoy them in your mind. It's a perfect enhancer to your already playful mind. This session does not encourage you to live out those fantasies but it does encourage you to have them and enjoy them. After listening to this session a few times you will be enjoying your guilty pleasure everywhere you go. Prepared to be hornier and get more excited when you talk about your intimate thoughts,
Horniness Curse (17:43) Take a walk on the wild side with this erotic teaser. Allow the horniness build deep inside your mind body spirit, teasing and taunting you until bingo… presto… you must find sexual release. It doesn't matter where, it doesn't matter with whom you just need to release all of the pent up pleasure that has been built deep inside.
Hypnotoy (22:46) This is an erotic hypnosis session Bob wrote for his wife that achieves really neat results. This session is perfect for ladies (and maybe men) who enjoy playing with their toy. After listening to this session a few time you will find you drift easily into hypnotic trance the moment you start playing with your toy. Once in trance your imagination will be enhanced and your thoughts and fantasies will become more real and life-like.
If you have a play partner then the suggestions they give you will become more enticing and exciting for you to fulfill. Have fun and by all means please let us know what you think!!
Ultimate Orgasm (50:46) The ultimate orgasm, a thought held by both men and women to be able to experience the rippling effect of waves of pleasure cascading down from the top of one's head to the tip of their toes. A very sexual and sensual voice talking to you through stereo headphones, relaxing your mind and body, then letting the thoughts and ideas guide your physical self into that sexual bliss. Listening to Nikki's guidance to bring pleasure like a waterfall flowing through every nerve and fiber of your existence. Using your own experience or fantasy to fall deeper and deeper into that floating existence of erotic trance, to forget about the weight of your arms, legs and torso only to be immersed into an orgasmic treasure. If erotic hypnotism has a place in today's hustle and bustle world this file is the relaxing, pleasing listen to take about fifty minutes set aside away from distractions, interruptions and give yourself the present of Nikki's ultimate orgasm.

She describes herself as a "necromantic" rather than a necrophile and has written about the distinction in The Necromantic Ritual Book. In this interview she talks about making love to the dead, and explains how her mausoleum ritual of communion with the dead allows her to commune with the spirit of death itself.

Information forTeachers of Students with AlbinismMost children with albinism can participate in general education programs
with proper intervention. The following information answers some of the
most common questions educators have about helping a student with albinism. What is albinism? Albinism is a group of genetic conditions that
causes a lack of pigment. It can effect only the eyes (ocular albinism)
or both the eyes and
skin (oculocutaneous
albinism). Most types of albinism are inherited when an individual receives
the albinism gene from both parents. The exception is one type of ocular albinism,
which is passed on from mothers to their sons.
The lack of pigment during the development
of the eye causes an abnormal development of the retina and affects
the formation of the nerve
pathways from the eyes
to the brain, which causes decreased visual acuity or low vision that cannot
be corrected to 20/20. Adults with albinism often describe their vision as
lacking fine detail. Corrective lenses (i.e. glasses or contact lenses) and
low vision aids (i.e. magnifiers or telescopes) can provide some clarification.
Most people with albinism use their vision for reading, and do not use Braille.
Some have vision good enough to drive a car.
How severe is my student with albinisms
visual impairment?
Youll find more information about potential classroom modifications
in NOAHs Information Bulletin Assisting
Students with Albinism.
For more information about standardized tests, see NOAHs Information

NOAH publishes The Student with Albinism in the Regular Classroom, a
16-page booklet that provides specific suggestions about working with
children with albinism for school personnel, physicians, parents, and
education and medical students. The booklet costs $5. To obtain a copy,
call NOAH toll-free at 1-800-473-2310, or email

SONS OF LIBERTY Review

Life, liberty, and the pursuit of handsomeness.
Watch our exclusive video interview with David Koepp where he talks about making 'Mortdecai' with Johnny Depp and Ron Howard's 'Inferno' with Tom Hanks.
Jason Sudeikis and Alison Brie lead this hilarious, raunchy "When Harry Met Sally with Assholes" romantic comedy.
The History mini-series 'Sons of Liberty' is a three-night, six-hour event that follows a defiant and radical group of young men who band together in secrecy to change the course of history and make America a nation.
The first authorized documentary about the Nirvana frontman is an intimate and revealing explosion of creativity, diving deep inside the mind of Kurt Cobain.


text: Hello everyone. I am new here. I am looking to find women in my area who would like to form a walking/support group. I have done the online support group thing before, but I find I just need a lot more support that only "in person" meetings can offer. Also I feel that forming a walking group is alot more fun and encourageing then walking alone. The problem is everything out here costs money to join and I don't have it to spare, so I would like to try and form my own free group. I have listed my basic information in my profile, but to save you the time of looking for it, I will tell you here. I am 24 years old. I am happily married with no children yet, but one spolied dog... :lol: I live in Holiday, Florida. I want to loose about 100pds. I am currently at 262, standing 5'5. I am an emotional eater. I have an anxiety disorder that I am dealing with day to day, although it has goten better, it is still there and has a mind of it's own at times. I feel a support group is cruecial to me because I basically have no friends. Although I am happily married and very thankful to have a loving husband, I have no girlfriends and that, I miss having. It's not that I don't want friends or can't have them. I am sorry to ramble on, but I want to honestly introduce my self. There is so much more to share, but I will save that for those of you that would be interested in hearing it. Thank you for reading my post, I hope to hear from you soon. :^:

For people who are fascinated with pathogens, the Mighty Microbes app is a digital playground. Containing 489 images in its collection (most of which were acquired by electron microscopy), this app allows users to come up close and personal with harmful viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoans. The images are of high quality and display nicely on the iPad, although I did find that many of them were not high enough resolution to render the "zoom in" function very useful. However, that limitation aside, this app still contains plenty of eye candy. Each image is accompanied by the scientific and common names of the organism that is imaged, as well as the method of image acquisition. Users can add images to a "favorites" folder, and can also choose to view the images in "slideshow mode" (which displays the image full-screen, without any description).

Loan Modifications Are Hurting Credit Scores
by Tim Manni
The latest thorn in the side of President Obama's loan modification program is that some participating borrowers could see their credit scores plummet:
Banks, including Citigroup Inc., JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Bank of America Corp., report the loan modifications to credit bureaus. The adjustments can lower credit scores because of the way the FICO formula, the most widely used by U.S. lenders, works.
"There should be clear disclosures so consumers understand this is a major hit on the credit score," said Evan Hendricks, Washington-based author of "Credit Scores & Credit Reports." "There's no sugar-coating the reality of the negative impact."
Borrowers might decide against participating when they learn what the program can do to their credit scores, said Jack Guttentag, founder of the Web site mtgprofessor.com and professor of finance emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School. That could limit the number of modifications and result in more foreclosures, Guttentag said.
But the experts say it mainly depends on your lending institution. The Consumer Data Industry Association (CDIA), which represents the credit bureaus, has guidelines for how lenders should report loan mods. According to the CDIA, borrowers who are in the trial period of their modification should be reported as current, not delinquent. However, the way each private lending institution reports the new terms of the loan workout is different. FICO hasn't decided whether or not to investigate if penalizing borrowers for loan workouts is legitimate.
Financial expert Gerri Detweiler says that, while a loan mod can hurt your credit score, it won't impact it as much as a foreclosure, which can stay on your credit report for seven years, and could cut your credit score by 200 points.
Whether modifying through the government's program or through a private lender, be sure to ask how the modification will impact your credit score.

poison ivy
poison ivy
Either of two North American species of white-fruited woody vines or shrubs of the sumac, or cashew, family. The species found in eastern North America (Toxicodendron radicans) is abundant; a western species, known as poison oak, is less common. Both species are sometimes classified as genus Rhus. A key identifier is leaves with three mitten-shaped leaflets. Contact with urushiol, an oil produced by the plant, can cause severe inflammation and blistering of human skin. Urushiol may be carried from the plant on clothing, shoes, tools, or soil; by animals; or by smoke from burning plants. Because urushiol is nonvolatile, a reaction may result from wearing clothing a year or more after its contact with the plant.

Castelli Diluvio Deluxe Gloves
? Share a...
A little disappointed
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I bought these "Deluxe" gloves after several years of total satisfaction with the "Standard" Diluvio gloves. The description states these are 3 mm thick neoprene, same as the Standard. I find that spec very suspect. When I hold the Deluxe next the the old Standard there's a big difference in thickness. The main body of the glove appears to be 2 mm and the thumb portion 1 mm. While that won't have much effect in the wet, the cold weather insulation is significantly less than the old Diluvio @ 3 mm thickness throughout. The thin material around the thumb (especially wrapped around the hoods) really limits the temperature at which these are comfortable.
Just curious: What's your impression now a year later? Do they hold up? My only experience with neoprene gloves was clammy hands. Do you use a liner?

"Because we don't use mayonnaise, I used ranch style salad dressing and eliminated the salt.
It's also very good using creamy Italian or 3 cheese salad dressing. It's easy to make and delicious served in flour tortillas or used as a sandwich on toasted whole-wheat bread. I'd give it 10 stars if I could."

I'm still fascinated by this show, and the fall-out!
How fake is it? Pretty darn fake, and I'll continue to bring you updates as I get them. Honestly, I don't expect a lot of reality in my Reality TV, but c'mon, these standards are in the outhouse. Literally. And it's beginning to smell real bad.
This TV station had a chance to talk with the ex-wife of Jeremiah, and then she shut up under speculation that she was receiving some sort of settlement from TLC.
Makes me wonder who on the show could possibly be real at all? Are they all actors with SAG cards?

Holly Scaglione, MSW
Holly Scaglione MSW
(707) 826-4451
Behavioral and Social Sciences 454
Originally from Pittsburgh PA, I graduated with my BASW in Social Work from the University of Pittsburgh. I earned my MSW from Humboldt State University. I also hold a Drug & Alcohol Certification from the Community College of Allegheny County. While traveling with the Semester at Sea program during my undergraduate studies, I was astounded by and humbled from bearing witness to the devastating effects of poverty, corruption, colonization, and social injustice around the globe. I felt called to be of service for positive change in myself, my community, and the world at large.
My goal is to facilitate a view of the world through a social lens, to inspire my students to challenge the mechanics of oppression and marginalization and encourage them to take action against it, and to realize their full potential as social workers and as human beings.
I have experience with substance abuse counseling, community organizing, mental health counseling and case management, the homeless population, medical (hospital) social work, harm reduction modalities, and equine-assisted therapy, among others.
Macro/Community Social Work
I am particularly interested in how we conceptualize and prioritize social problems and in turn, how we empower each other to organize against the status quo in
order to solve these problems. What is our role as Social Workers in modern-day organizing and how can we realize and carry out our original pursuit of macro-level
social change? I am interested in our role as advocates within our local communities as well as the empowerment of second- and third-world populations (and the ethical implications of this role).
Along these lines I am also concerned with issues of privilege, oppression, and cultural repair. Specifically how can we stimulate dialogue about and the acknowledgement of privilege in our everyday lives in order to recognize and remediate its effects upon marginalized populations? How can we discover methods of cultural connection and reparation within our own lives in order to achieve self-actualization?
Harm Reduction
I am interested in the harm reduction movement and its intersection with social work, specifically around shared values such as self-determination, respect, access to
needed resources, and social justice, among others. I want to expand the ideas of harm reduction into all areas of social work and incorporate harm reduction theory into social work practice.
Experiential Social Work
My interest in experiential social work lies primarily in the realm of equine-assisted therapeutic modalities. As a practitioner of Equine-Assisted Growth and Learning, I value its ability to allow participants to discover what works for them and discard what does not. I believe that the use of animals (especially horses) as "emotional mirrors" is a powerful way to build clear communication, honesty, and trust. The use of the horse as "therapist" is an effective and fun way to experience deeper authenticity, self-esteem, clarity, and personal power.

I haven't had to plug up small holes in painted or stained wood trim in years, but I have a few screw holes in my painted trim that I need to patch before painting.
I don't have that much to do (I probably could get away with about two tablespoons of the stuff), but wondering what's recommended these days. My previous attempts to patch wood always ended lousy despite sanding like crazy. And the patches always showed through. Is there anything out there that's easy to work with? Also, just confirming...prime after sanding, correct? |
Follow-Up Postings:
For most repairs on painted trim, I just use drywall compound. You can use wood filler, Bondo or Ready Patch if you want the repairs to be hard, but keep in mind these products are hard to sand. Drywall compound, especially if you use the lightweight stuff, is very easy to sand and you can sculpt the repairs to the contours of your wood fairly easily with a sanding sponge. You don't really need to prime the repairs or nail holes that you filled, but you will need to double coat over the repairs to keep them from flashing through the topcoat. |
What a great tip, paintguy. I thought you had to match the repair product to the material. But when you think about it, trim work is mostly decorative, so the filler only has to be strong enough to support the paint that goes on top of it. |

Not all good
By Mo
from Burlington, MA
Comments about Perricone MD Best of Perricone 7-Piece Collection:
I used as directed. The eye lift was good- evening repair is very good but made my laugh lines red for the first week. Had to stop using it there for a week to calm it down. The face lift moisturizer is good. The other items did nothing.The no make up foundation is too light for me- looked pasty.

great intro
By Jean
from Monument, CO
This is my first time with Perricone products so I thought I'd try as much as I could and this 7 piece set as well as the power set were a reasonable way to do so. I'll review each product under their own review section. I'm glad I tried this because I do now have some favorites but also enough lesser-favs to know I won't get this set againg. To be sure, it is a great way to find out what works for you so as an intro set it's great. I'll start with least-favs so as to end on a postive note: the neuropeptite moisturizer. I see that this is the most expensive one they offer and so we're supposed to think that this o.25 oz of it is a great deal but even using the most tiny amount to cover my face, this was empty in a hearbeat. Maybe I got two weeks out of it at best. I'd much rather try a larger size of something else than have the moisturizer in the set be empty so quickly (and I did use sparingly). Face wash,serum prep, no foundation, eye serum: not bad at all just a little underwhelming. The good includes the concentrated restorative treatment (now that lasts!) and the high potency serums (also last). So in the end, this set does exactly what it should: introduces their high-sellers and lets us pick what we like and I recommend it for that purpose but not as a monthly repurchase. For that, check out their new Power Treatment set.

Great Starter Set!
By cCat
from San Jose, CA
This was my first experience to Dr. Perricone's line, and I was extremely pleased and surprised. I did notice great results in the first three days of use. This kit was a nice introduction to the line, at a slightly lower price than the larger kits. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to try Dr. Perricone's products, and not sure which items to choose.

Best variety package to try
By Gia
from Decatur, IL
I didn't quite know what to expect before this purchase was received however it is a lot of bang for your buck. It has a little of everything and it's ease of use is welcomed. I use Pericone MD cosmeceuticals everyday. I use to exclusively use only the items purchsed at my estheticians office. I found Pericone products on line and decided to try them and haven't looked back. This purchase was so good I reordered another.

What's the Difference Between a BB, a CC, and a Tinted Moisturizer?
Here's a question people have been asking me just about daily since the introduction of the now-famous "alphabet" creams (as in, BBs, CCs, and even DDs): How are they different from tinted moisturizer? If you polled a dozen different beauty editors, you'd get a dozen different answers. In my opinion, the answer is (and it's one that I've heard echoed by people at the companies who sell them): Not much.
So, clever marketing or must-have? Well now, that's a bit more complicated. I'd say a bit of both. You see, I think there are your foundation types, and your non-foundation types. For the latter group, tinted moisturizers are a great option, offering some form of complexion correction, but a much lighter feel. The alphabet creams provide the same—but with some nice anti-aging benefits, perhaps a bit of extra hydration, and often tint as well as luminizing particles (ingredients that boost radiance). So, basically, they've just expanded the range of viable options for non-foundation wearers.
My favorite happens to be Olay Total Effects Tone Correcting CC Cream ($20 at walmart.com), seen here. It has N-acetyl glucosamine and niacinamide to address brown spots and unevenness in tone—but mostly I love it because it is a killer tinted moisturizer.

by Rosamond Richardson-Gerson , Edited by Gillian Emerson-Roberts
Category: Home, Family & Health / Home & House
Publisher: Penguin Books Ltd
Publication date: 6 March 2003
Number of pages: 192
This text offers practical information on running a natural, safe and healthy home. It covers cleaning, food, decorating, energy consumption, laundry, personal remedies and more. The book promises a clean, efficient, well-run home that nurtures its inhabitants.
The less time to spend on our homes, the more we dream of well-ordered living spaces, clean even in the areas you can't see, a soothing, well-ordered refuge from the hurly-burly of the world beyond the front door. It is to this urge that Rosamond Richardson's book appeals. Kicking off with a stern warning that 'sick building syndrome' is not confined to large office blocks, she provides a 'home health check'. There is much here that is blindingly obvious and simultaneously manages to be of scant practical use. 'Avoid properties close to busy roads... as these cause air pollution.' Sure they do, but what can you do to minimise the effect if you happen to be lumbered with one already? More helpful chapters include the one on cleaning, which contains the amazing statistic that the average modern household possesses up to 45 litres of chemically based cleaning products, and advises on more natural alternatives. The general thrust of the book is about eliminating the chemical, the synthetic, the non-natural from your home, and sections on decorating, furnishing, laundry and food include advice on how to achieve this. And you can do your bit for the planet, too: chapters on saving energy and recycling waste are useful. But this book attempts to cover more than the fabric of the home and the chapters on baby care, meditation and even how to have a bath seem to belong in a different book. A more exhaustive handbook on home care would be timely and welcome; and you can't learn to meditate from two pages of copy and a picture of the author in the lotus position. Well meaning, but not as much use as you hope it's going to be. (Kirkus UK)
What the papers say:
Rosamond Richardson has been living a "green", environmentally-friendly life since 1984 and has written many books on its various aspects from vegetarian cookery and yoga to general health and well-being. In "Home Hints and Tips", she brings all these subjects together, sharing her ideas and methods for living a healthier life, using natural products to avoid further contamination to our planet. From cleaning, buying appliances, recycling, child and pet care, composting and growing your own vegetables, Rosamond gives pertinent tips and suggestions to doing it in a greener way. Attractively presented with a "dip in and read" format, it is full of useful titbits: how to remove grease from clothes, limescale from taps, looking after linen and silk, cooking healthy food and natural remedies. Occasionally over-the-top in her efforts to be environmentally friendly, this is nevertheless an invaluable reference for today's more consciously-aware lifestyles. - Lucy Watson
Author's Biography:
Rosamond Richardson has written over 20 books on vegetarian cooking, including 'Natural Superwoman'. In 1994 she joined forces with Linda McCartney, becoming her food consultant, and collaborating author. Rosamond's most recent books are 'The Natural Home' and 'New Woman: A Survival Guide to Growing Older'. Rosamond now lives in rural Essex.

5Dec 5, '11 by nerdtonurse?Quote from MunchI was thinking...for her lawsuit scrapbook. The only way I'd let a patient take a picture of me is if I was in L&D, and even then, I'd try to escape.I had a patient who was in pretty bad looking shape after 1 day post op after having major brain surgery(bruised eye, blood crusted under her nose after having a nose bleed. blood showing through the bandages wrapped around her head and a few other unpleasant looking things). The patient wanted me to take numerous pictures of her(after I had brain surgery I did NOT want any pictures taken of me, I looked like a human punching bag) and when I changed her bandages she wanted to keep them. Of course before putting a new bandage on the patient wanted me to take multiple pictures of her large scar(she had a Frankenstein like scar). Every bandage she had changed she wanted to save. Oh and of course she wanted pictures with every staff member that came in her room(myself included), the house keeping workers, ANYONE that came into room...why would you want a picture with the person that brings you your meals?
I guess she wanted them for her brain surgery scrap book?
"See, your Honor, this is the first woman who ever held Little Jimmy, and he's been terrified of red hair ever since...I want a million dollars." -
0Jan 1, '12 by LovelyPracticalNurseI've had strange requests before. The only time I will do what they ask is when they physically can't, as long as what they ask isn't inapropriate (like asking to hold a vibrator LOL that's a winner in this thread). When it comes to cream, if I have to insert it inside a woman, even though I am a woman, I always bring a female CNA. We have had patients with historys of molestation/rape and I do not want to trigger an old demented lady into thinking I am trying to hurt her and then have no witnesses to the situation. As for topical creams to the genital area I usually apply that myself mostly because the elderly are not so great at washing their hands :\ and it becomes a hassle. I will not put any cream anywhere unless ordered, if they have it ordered for their testicles, and want it on their penis. I will let them know I have to get an order for that first. Usually ends that issue.
0Jan 9, '12 by DedHedRNThere was this one woman where I work who always tells the CNAs that they have to put barrier cream up inside her vagina with there fingers. She also demanded the nurse come insert finger in anus to see if she was inpacted after three large loose BMs, and a big helping of MOM. Bleh... Ox4 and always threating to report too.
