That 70's Bike
Posted 01 March 2007 - 01:49 AM
Back in the days when a peanut farmer was the president, choppers looked like this. They often had no front brake. The extended Sportster forks were made with aluminum tubing and the fork boots painted on. The pschycadelic swirl paint took about 5 hours, total, over a base of Duplicolor white and lots of clear.
Many parts, including the engine, came from an old Imex Harley that I took apart. The handle bars, sissy bar and chain guard are made from twisted 20 guage silver wire. The stash pouch was scratchbuilt.
I cut grooves in the Revell kit tire to make it look more like a tire from the 70's. The wrap-around fenders are resin from Reps & Mins.
The old Imex kit tried to represent a (then) new Evo engine, but it was actually a shovelhead with Evo blockheads,,,,,so I scratchbuilt the shovelheads from shaped plastic and pin heads for bolts.
The ol' school solo seat and p-pad are available now from Replicas & Miniature Co. of Md.
We now return you to the 21st. century.

That is amazing. Great work on the twisted wire pieces, Lyle! And that paint is the knots.
I'll have to add those seats to my NNL East buy list.
Any bike with a stash pouch & a p-pad is a friend of mine. 8)

I have all of the bike parts shown in my Fotki album.I have last years cat. from him and dont have none of this bike stuff.I will have to give him a call and request a updated cat.!!

The Mukai Farm and Garden, ca. 1926
The historic Mukai Farm and Garden on Vashon island is now the focus of a dispute between the current ownership group and a citizens' group decrying the property's neglect.
Special to The Seattle Times
Take a tour through local history
The Seattle Times Historical Archive is a searchable database of Seattle Times newspapers from 1900 through 1984. The archive reveals pages as they were originally published, with stories, photos and advertising.

ON JUNE 1, about 200 enthusiasts gathered beside — but not on — Vashon Island's landmark Mukai Farm and Garden for a "This Place Matters" celebration. It turned out that the crowd wasn't just celebrating: It was protesting against the current owners, alleging that they have neglected the historic property.
The enterprising Mukai family built this home in 1926 and began the artful labor of fitting the grounds with an elegant Japanese landscape — winding waterways about carefully set rocks, appointed with appropriate plants. The garden was supported by the success of B.D. Mukai's strawberries. His nearby cold-pressing process packed the iced berries in barrels of his own making for shipment to distant markets. It was an enterprise that in season hired 400 to 500 workers.
B.D.'s second wife, Kuni, designed the garden and continued to develop and nurture it from the late 1920s until World War II, which on the West Coast upset the lives of nearly everyone of Japanese descent, including the Mukais.
Jean Sherrard was surprised by the "now" scene he encountered at the farm. "I arrived at the Mukai farm to find several hundred people assembling on a country road that runs in front of the farm. A black plastic fence posted with 'No Trespassing' signs and two sheriffs' squad cars kept preservationists off the land, squeezed onto the pavement."
What's all the fuss about?

The florists at Conroy's Flowers have been meticulously hand-arranging flowers in Alhambra for more than 20 years. Each picturesque bouquet artfully conveys the bequeather's tidings, whether celebrating an anniversary, heralding the arrival of a new baby, or commemorating the office printer's 2,000th paper jam. Light orange roses shine among of hot pink carnations in the How Sweet It Is bouquet ($45), and Conroy's Flowers' classic Beautiful in Blue arrangement ($52.95) carries an aura of serene beauty emitted by splashy white lilies, chrysanthemums, blue hydrangeas, and other dressings housed in a cobalt-blue vase. Bountiful spring bouquets celebrate seasonal shifts with arrangements such as the Cotton Candy ($45), which pours a heavy helping of prettiness out of a reusable glass vase.
Edible Arrangements fresh, artful fruit baskets combine the aesthetic elements and emotive properties of floral arrangements with the juicy deliciousness and socially acceptable edibility of fruit. The sweetener-free, preservative-free baskets are all handcrafted for each order, ensuring that deliveries arrive at the apex of freshness. Delve into the depths of fruity expression with Edible Arrangement's selection of singular gifts, such as the Little Special Expression ($24), the faux-floral vase of Simply Daisies ($52), or the boxed 30-some of decadent Fruit Truffles ($39). On a holiday or any day, an Edible Arrangement can turn a frown into an upright orange wedge, a tear into a three-tiered citrus structure, and a friend into still just a friend, but one with a sweet, balanced diet.
We have have been serving Southern California for over 80 years. Founded in 1923, San Gabriel Nursery & Florist is a family-owned and operated business. Three generations of family members along with an extensive staff, continue the tradition of providing quality nursery stock at reasonable prices.
Specializing in event and wedding décor, Creative Floral Designs' talented staff churns out a bevy of centerpieces, bridal bouquets, and boutonnieres as well as customized floral arrangements using fine-tuned gardening shears and imaginations. Cheer up drooping dining room tables with an invigorating arrangement bursting with bright pink roses and pink and white lilies ($80). An attractive assemblage of red roses ($80) can be passed out to prize-winning racehorses, purple dendrobium orchids ($80) peek out from behind greenery to whisper get wells and congratulations, and roses spiked with bamboo ($80) cry out in pain.
A massive saguaro cactus towers over the entrance garden to California Cactus Center, shadowing a stone pathway surrounded by potted bromeliads with its sky-scraping height. The nursery deals exclusively in desert plants from around the world, stocking dozens of cacti species and other succulents and drought-happy botanical specimens. Inside the center, trays of tender succulents spread out over long tables as dangling strings of decorative rocks and glass sway gently above them. Dusted tones of lavender, sage, and scarlet-edged olive grace each leaf, and tillandsias—air plants that require no soil to live—sway gently within glass domes. Metal gates emblazoned with cacti lead to a section of clay and ceramic pottery, as well as decorations including brassy crescent moons and smiling suns. Outside, lily pads float in a peaceful pond as barrel cacti stretch their knobby heads from between agave plants, prickly pears, and prolific palm fronds. The nursery's staff can guide patrons in any of their botanical pursuits, whether choosing the proper plants for their yard, maintaining their landscapes, or figuring out whether or not their saguaro actually likes wearing its sombrero.
FrameStore's craftsmen have created more than 250,000 custom frames in the store's 35-year tenure, designing pieces that now adorn the walls of prestigious institutions such as the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Ritz-Carlton, and the Walt Disney Company. Professional designers guide FrameStore's clients through the 2,200 moulding options that can accent paintings and treasured items while adding style and elegance to rooms. The store's craftsmen then fashion pieces to patron specifications, outfitting frames with classic or museum-quality glass that blocks UV rays from bleaching out images or censoring pictures of the moon. Every piece goes through a 16-point inspection before it is given to patrons, and the team averages a seven-day turnaround on all of its projects.

Things I liked:Simple, trust worthy and effective. Things I would have changed:It seems a bit lightweight but time may prove that opinion incorrect. What others should know:Hopefully someone will develop a light weight rack for car or truck to keep the tank protected and from rolling - rather than old blankets. lol Things I liked:Works very well attaching to the tank and makes carrying the tank much easier. Things I would have changed:Can't see anyway to improve upon this product. What others should know:There's only one way to store your tank and that's by laying it down on it's side. At least in the house it would be nice if it would stand up on it's own and there is if you get yourself a SCUBA tank boot to slip on the end opposite the valve. They are made of rubber and are very stout ... and this is probably not the place to discuss this. Things I liked:A must have for ten more bucks order with tank or u pay more in shipping it's well made very strong the people fill my tank thank me for having it on their say that they wish all their customers had one makes there job filling it easier too Things I would have changed:Nothing What others should know:Get it !!

State Responses to Budget Crisis in 2004: An Overview of Ten States – Overview and Case Studies
In this report we examine how ten states from around the nation have responded to their budget crises in fiscal year 2004. While states vary in the depth of the budget pressures they faced, as state revenues remained depressed, all were required to make difficult choices among spending reductions, tax increases, or other revenue measures. In general, we found states with few exceptions relied on targeted revenue measures, such as cigarette and alcohol taxes, but were unwilling to engage in significant increases in personal or corporate income taxes or sales taxes. States did continue the pattern of recent years of drawing on reserves or rainy day funds, transferring monies from dedicated trust funds and shifting spending or taxes across time periods to address current shortfalls. Due to the length of the document, we have also provided the chapters broken down by state to facilitate viewing and downloading capabilities.

IMF: China faces serious obstacles
Comment on this storyBeijing - International Monetary Fund (IMF) chief Christine Lagarde on Monday urged China to carry out reforms to make its economic growth model more inclusive, cleaner and sustainable.
"While headline growth numbers remain impressive, this disguises some serious obstacles that need to be overcome," Lagarde said in a speech at a forum in Beijing.
"The challenge is clear: to make growth more inclusive, friendlier to the environment, and more sustainable," she said, according to the text of the speech as prepared on the IMF's website.
China's gross domestic product (GDP) grew 7.7 percent in 2013, unchanged from the year before.
Though stronger than most other economies, it remained the country's worst result since 1999.
A string of economic indicators announced recently have suggested that the economy has continued to lose momentum this year. Manufacturing activity contracted in March at its worst rate in eight months, according to British bank HSBC's preliminary purchasing managers' index (PMI) released Monday.
To unleash China's next-stage growth potential, the government should increase the role of the service sector and private investors, Lagarde said.
A globally integrated financial system will be "essential" to support China's next transformation, she said, adding more competition and transfer of knowledge will benefit Chinese banks.
A gradual opening up of China's capital account will make the economy more resilient to shocks and strengthen the potential role of the yuan as a global currency, she said. China has been pursuing such an agenda since the global financial crisis.
Inequality and environmental pollution have been deteriorating as China's economy grows, Lagarde said.
"For growth to be sustainable, it needs to be inclusive, its benefits need to be more widely shared, and it needs to be environmentally viable," she said.
China's leadership says it wants to transform the country's growth model away from an over-reliance on often wasteful investment, and instead make private demand the driver for the country's future development, even if it may lead to slower growth rates.
It has also declared "war" on pollution, vowing to shut down tens of thousands of coal-fired furnaces and remove millions of high-emission vehicles from the roads this year.
Beijing earlier this month has set its growth target for this year at 7.5 percent, the same as that set last year. Many economists expect actual growth this year to miss the target, something that has not happened in 16 years. - Sapa-AFP

Hedgehog Park work gets Salem board approval
Earlier this week, selectmen unanimously approved the use of $44,000 in recreation impact fees for the engineering work on the project.
"We are moving ahead with the Hedgehog Park master plan, which was adopted by the Board of Selectmen in 2008," said Dillon. "Phase three includes the demolition of the existing bathrooms and warming area with the construction of a new one with an extended pavilion as well."
Several nonprofit groups throughout town have expressed an interest in helping with the fundraising for the construction, but have stated that they want to see more concrete construction plans and costs before committing.
"Currently, yes," said Dillon. "It will be an area where groups can gather and have picnics and hold family reunions or birthday parties."

NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Ex-Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina will get a severance package worth about $21.4 million, but stands to reap another $21 million after she was forced out by the computer maker's board last week, a newspaper reported Saturday.
The additional amount reflects the estimated value of her Hewlett stock and options as well as her pension, which were not included in her severance package, the New York Times reported.
Fiorina was forced to resign Tuesday after the computer maker's board concluded she hadn't boosted Hewlett's (Research) sagging stock or its fortunes after the company's merger with Compaq Computer.
She will receive $14 million in severance pay and a $7.4 million bonus for 2004, according to terms of the agreement submitted Friday in regulatory filings -- even though Wednesday the board singled out her failure to accelerate the company's strategy, the newspaper reported.
But more than $21.1 million in additional compensation was not reflected in the severance package, the report said.
This includes options granted in 2003 now worth about $1 million, restricted grants of about 826,000 shares that, coupled with her other Hewlett holdings, have a current market value of $18.2 million, and a pension that compensation specialists said could be worth at least $2 million, according to the newspaper.
HP officials were not immediately available to comment.

If you are in the oil or gas business then there are certain tools that will be essential to the success of your oil field rig. Below we've provided a short list of just some of the tools that will ensure you achieve the best quality and quantity of gas or oil you extract the next time.
Tubing Strippers
If you are extracting oil or gas from the earth, you will need to pump the material through some sort of tubing. The tubing stripper not only cleans the tubing as it is being pulled under pressure, it also prevents oil or gas from escaping the tube as well. Tubing strippers are available in a range of sizes to fit almost any size tube. We offer the TX-JU Tubing Stripper in addition to the Hall Tubing Stripper and would be happy to discuss which option would be a better fit for your equipment or situation.
More about our Tubing Strippers
Tubing Spiders
A tubing spider, such as our fast and reliable TP-60 Tubing Spider serves the purpose of holding the drill string while assemblies or reassembles of the drill string are being done. The TP-60 also boasts the added advantage of only requiring one person to operate it, and is interchangeable with other models of G spiders.
Pipe Wipers
Pipe wipers remove debris and mud from the pipe while it is being pulled or run. There are many pipe wipers out there to choose from, some of the finest of which are our own Ingram International Single, Dual or Split Level Wipers. Dual and split level wipers are more popular than the low level ones. The difference is that as the pipe wiper wears, it can be re-cut to fit the next available cutting ring saving the rig time and money. However, the price for a low level pipe wiper is pretty much high.
Take a look at our Pipe Wipers
Rod Guides
Rod guides will help to reduce the rod wear, tubing wear and even lifting cost. We offer both Nylon and Rubber rod guides which act as spacers between the rod couplings and the tubing bore. Rod Guides also increase pumping stroke by ensuring the rods fall straight and don't buckle, which means reduced lifting costs.
Rod Stripper
Similar to the tubing stripper, the rod stripper works to remove excess oil or paraffin from all sizes of rods or piping, while it is being pulled.
Take a look at our Rod Stripper
Handling Tools
In addition to the above, we offer various handling tools to assist you in your work with rods and coupling joints. The right tool can make any job easier, and our experience in the field has led to the creation of tools that do just that.
Check out our Handling ToolsIf you are in the oil or gas business, then give us a call or place an order right now. Our trusted sales team will guide you through the process from purchase until you actually receive your product. We are waiting to answer any questions or queries you might have about any of our products.

HP original OEM logos
Hi to all,
Could someone please post a copy of the oem logo .bmp for HP and Compaq machines? I re-installed Vista on my HP and Compaq systems and the System Properties window no longer displays the HP logo (because ../system32 no longer has the oem logo .bmp and oem info.ini files). Yes, I know this has no impact on the functionality of the install but I would like the sytem to be as close to a factory install (minus the garbage) as possible. Thanks in advance...

$150,000 donation funding major makeover for Lufkin exhibit
POSTED: Monday, June 4, 2012 - 10:34am
UPDATED: Monday, June 4, 2012 - 10:44am
Lufkin, TX — A 104-year-old steam locomotive housed at the Texas Forestry Museum in Lufkin will soon undergo a major makeover.
Thanks to a $150,000 donation from Houston-based Black Stone Minerals, the 1908 steam locomotive and the 1906 wood-burning steam log loader, located in the outdoor exhibit area of the museum, will receive a much-needed restoration.

Hi, everyone -- We know we've had a mountain lion on the neighbor's roof, which is about 35 feet from our roof; she heard it, and it left scat on the side of her roof nearest our house that was confirmed to be mountain lion by the local game warden. We've had other occurrences around here that seem to indicate the presence of a lion. I'd already been wishing we had some kind of a mounted camera outside so we could enjoy seeing the local wildlife activity, but now I'd like one also to verify that we have a mountain lion in the area, since DH and I like to sleep outside on our deck (which has no stair access, so until now we thought we were safe). Can anyone recommend the best kind of camera to get? I've googled "night vision camera" and "wildlife camera" but am confused about all the claims made, etc.
Thanks very much for any advice you can give. |

Boy, Susan, you have yourself a real predicament there, don't you!? I did a quick look thru the forums available here, and found one that may help. At least the title of the forum sounds more useful for your situation, than our RM Gardening title! :) And they are within the GardenWeb family. Best of luck in your search! Let us know if you get some photos of that cat! |
Here is a link that might be useful: Nature Photography and Optics
You might try going to Cabelas, then enter "camera" in the search box - the page that comes up has their selection, and they generally have good, and seemingly honest, product reviews. You also might want to contact one of their experts and 'splain the problem. We get mountain lions through a couple of times a year. I haven't seen them inside my deer fence, but they're often right out side it. |
irisgirl and david52, thank you very much. I've posted on the other forum, and will call Cabela's. We've seen ML tracks in the mud since then, so this guy is really hangin' around. Yes, I do know how to tell cat tracks from canine! |
I had mountain lion tracks in my garden one morning back when I lived up in Coal Creek Canyon. The tracks are hard to miss because they are HUGE! I never ran into one again, and I was grateful. I like reading the reviews on Amazon - whether you buy there or not, you can gather a lot of info from reading about other people's experiences with an item. |
Earlier today, a friend was showing me the pictures he took of his halloween trick-or-treaters, using one of these - you can imagine the looks when the flash went off out of nowhere...... |

Sony XDRDS12IP iPod/iPhone Speaker Dock with Clock Radio Function

Posted September 19, 2011 at 2:39PM
Hi, I bought the above mentioned item, a basically an alarm with Dab radio, speakers and connectivity for an Ipod. My problem is that as soon as I attach the ipod through the ipod connection in the base unit (classic version 3) the ipod locks up. I thought it might be the system so I got a replacement. I tried a newer (borrowed) Ipod and that worked ok, but I still had the same problem. If I connect though the mini-phone stereo 3.5 mm jack then it works ok. It is sold as being compatible with all Ipods, I've tried to send an email to Sony but their system is so complicated I gave up.
Any ideas welcomed.. Thanks

Yes. That was the first thing I tried...but I was already on the latest ipod firmware version.
They sometimes have them on show in comet/Currys etc in the high street.. It may be worth your while to take your ipod in and test it against one on the shelf.
As I mentioned it worked perfectly ok with a later version of the ipod.
Thanks for replying.

]]>Investment Scheme) which are often used in film finance.
In the USA, some states (Connecticut, for example) offer tax credits, but the film must actually be produced in that state, and the producer can only get the tax credits after documenting such. Some creative directors have tried to swap the right to the tax credit for cash that can be used to further finance or finish the film. To sweeten the deal, the producer/investor could ostensibly sell the tax credit at a discount. For this sort of deal to work, credits must be transferable—no financier will be interested if the rights can't be assigned directly to him. The Connecticut tax break could only be used by a corporate tax payer with a tax obligation to the state.
Pennsylvania had a simliar scheme which would actualy cut you a check upon submitting expenditure documentation.
high as 20%. P&A Financing has no security – more risk traditionally equals higher rewards. The rights in the film are not the security, but the debt is senior by virtue of the order of payment, which is effectively like being senior secured in that the revenue from the film—after the distributor is paid—pays P&A first. Last in, first out."
Product Placement. Producers can also earn money from product placement (imagine having the rights to Mickey Mouse dolls, Darth Vader products, etc.).
Hedge funds and other investors entering the film-financing world decided to create their own slates. Slate financing is a "term of art" for a
financing arrangement in which an investment group provides capital to film fund for financing a slate of films in an effort to spread risk.
Slate financing funds can offer senior, mezzanine or equity packages, depending on investor risk appetite.
]]>see the Japanese coming through in film investment; 20 years ago, insurance companies couldn't get enough of it; 10 years ago, German film funds who had tax reasons for investing in films; and then this last decade, hedge funds have become the drivers. The UK currently has the popular "EIS" or, "Enterprise Investment Scheme" – commonly used in film finance.
Each investment wave has its own characteristics. In the early '80s, much of the investment was tax driven: investors could purchase films as they were being completed and lease them back to distributors. They could accelerate the depreciation and amortization of the asset just purchased to defer income and other taxes. There was a significant DVD market as well as a well developed rental channel.
Insurance companies, during their 1990's Hollywood period offered to insure gap loans on films. Banks would provide gap financing to producers, then insure the loans in case sales targets were missed and producers couldn't make good. Emboldened by their insurance policies, banks increased the gap loans to as much as 50% of film budgets. Many banks even opened film finance subspecialty departments.
The German wave was underwritten by the German government, which developed a public market in tax-shelter vehicles—the Neuer Market — that raised money from wealthy German investors. Large German film funds like Helkon and Kinowelt invested hundreds of millions of euros in independent production companies like Newmarket and New Line Cinema. The Neuer Market melted down in 2001, due to a
spate of bankruptcies and insider-trading scandals – this collapse took the film funds with it when the well of funds dried up. The collapse left major studios and large independents looking for new sources of production financing.
Fast-forward to today: between 2004 and 2008, an estimated $15 billion was invested in slates of films. Financial powerhouses like Merrill Lynch, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup and JPMorgan all arranged co-financing deals with studios raising money from hedge funds and private equity firms. The players are mostly U.S.-based and mostly on Wall Street. The financial crisis chilled the sector somewhat, but money is once again flowing back into the film industry.
Through all of the cycles of financial investors, there's one group of investors that can always be counted on. These 'investors' are people "using methods of analysis that don't relate to the statistical success rate of films," – 'Vanity Investors'. "My son is in the film", "my son has always wanted to be a film producer", "my neice wrote the script", "my wife wants to be a movie star".

Sturdy credit augmentation and steady margins aided HDFC Bank in reaching a 34 per cent plunge in net profit which is at Rs 812 crore for the quarter closing June 30. In the similar period last year, the bank earlier recorded a net profit of Rs 606 crore.
Gross proceeds for the quarter increased by 42 per cent out of which, approximately 10 per cent incline in advances was owing to short-term comprehensive loans to the telecom domain. The augmented loan built-up during the quarter of March was 16 per cent.
According to Mr Paresh Sukthankar, the Executive Director of HDFC Bank the loan stipulation as of now witness strong and the group have generally matured at levels elevated than the system.
With GDP projected to mature at 8.5 per cent, it is likely that system altitude loan development might be somewhere at 21-22 per cent.
Moreover the net interest margin is prone to be steady at about 4-4.3 per cent this year.
Mr. Sukthankar further added that the initial donor to NIM is the deposit mix. If they can uphold a reasonable current account savings account mix and the fraction of retail and wholesale loans stays at 50:50, then the margins might reach to stability levels.
This year, both the yield on advances and cost of payments is expected to move upbeat, which might make sure of stable margins.

I appreciate your comments. A father/son sexual relationship is unlike any other.
As you pointed out, nobody here is in favor of taking advantage of anyone, regardless of their age. Although it hasn't been stated explicitly in the posts, I think most people assumed that the subject of this thread was consensual sex between family members who are old enough to enter into this type of relationship. The age of consent is usually 16, and you need to be at least 18 to join JUB. By those definitions, it's not possible for anyone here to be advocating doing anything that is against the law.

4 russians in semis in moscow
Oct 2nd, 2003, 10:47 PM
How likely is it? ;)
Oct 2nd, 2003, 11:02 PM
Very unlikely that Vera will beat Amelie so I say 25%
Oct 2nd, 2003, 11:11 PM
I think Mauresmo has the perfect game to beat Vera easily by attacking the net.
Oct 3rd, 2003, 02:00 AM
Elena v Francesca could be a marathon of sprinting. Biggest challenge Elena has had yet.
Some up and coming players find a top player they can beat and build a habit from which they go on to beat other top players. (look at Huber and Martinez for a classic example)
Francesca has been flirting with beating a top 5 player all year and Elena might be interesting.
Vera might find Amelie interesting too. Wouldn't bet who has the most potential there.
Elena B is due a good run?

Of course, Elena isn't Top 5 yet. :)
However, if she beats Mauresmo in the semifinal, she'll move up to #6. :eek:

Vera will beat Amelie, but depends on how the other Russians will do ;)
Fantasy Season
Oct 3rd, 2003, 02:56 AM
A decent chance...
I like Bovina over Anna on carpet. The result will be entirely up to Lena. If she doesn't make tons of errors, I think she'll pull through.
Myskina over Eleni... I think it won't even be close. Eleni's been struggling for a while.
Dementieva and Schiavone... this one could be tough. :sad: Franny is due for a win like this, and I'm still not sold that Alyona is playing that well lately.
Vera vs. Amelie... I hope Vera pulls it out. :)
Oct 3rd, 2003, 03:15 AM
I think Vera against Amelie is the toughest one.
I haven't seen Elena D. play since her loss to Jennifer in NY. I don't know if she's playing better. But I think Elena D. will fight to keep her 9 match winning streak going.
Lena B. has a big shot.
Myskina is coming off a win over Justine.
Oct 3rd, 2003, 07:21 AM
Eleni will beat Myskina. Revenge for Bahia final.

Dream Doctor Exam
I am sure I am not the only one out there, but, as a guy, I have always wondered what it would be like to have my exam be a little more sexual, something like this.....The nurse leads me to the exam room and takes me inside. She tells me to sit so she can take blood pressure and pulse, the usual. I sit in the chair because the stirrups are up in place on the table. She didn't notice and I didn't say anything. She finished up with the blood pressure check and pulse and stood up to go. She turned at the door and told me to take everything off, cover with the paper and sit on the table. I ******** down naked and went to the end of the table to sit. Felt odd but I was just curious. I scooted back and I lay down and tried to get my feet in the stirrups. I had just got comfortable and it felt hot, being so exposed.
Thats when I heard the quick knock and in comes the doctor. I was caught, he looks up and chuckles. Big smile on his face. Said it was cute. Asked me if I was ready for my exam I just said yes with a red face.
I got my feet and legs out of the stirrups and sat in front of the doctor. He went abou this business, checking lungs, eyes, ears, nose, throat, heartbeat, feeling me along the way. Told me to lay back, I did, felt the probiing of my stomach, as they get lower I start to feel a little excited. I am sensitive too much sometimes, then the hand slides under the paper cover, I start growing. I felt the hand brush my **** and that ended any thoughts of not getting a hard on. They finish and proceed to check my legs, inner thighs and I am rock hard now, Doc tells me to stand up over by the stool.
I stood up in front of the stool as the doctor sat down. He reached up and started pulling on my ****, looking at it closely, checking from top to bottom. I was very hard now. He reached under and felt up each of my balls, one at a time. Roling them around between hins fingers. If he didn't stop soon I was going to explode. My **** was pointing straight at him when he looked up. He chuckled again. He told me to turn around, and before he could finish, I asked him if we could do this last check with me in the stirrups. I told him I always wanted to but never said anything. He said if thats what I wanted.
He walked back to the door to maske sure it was locked. Satisfied that it was he came back towards the table as I was getting my feet and legs up. He said hold on, let me help you so you will be comfortable. He held my legs up one at a time and made sure I was in and comforatble. He adjusted something, the table moved, I don't know for sure what it was. I just know that I felt totally exposed, legs spread very wide, *** in the air a little, and pointed towards the door.He told me to hold still for a minute. This check isn't exactly the same as when you bend over. I need more lube I think.
He went to the cabinet and pulled out a full thing of KY. He walked back down between my legs and I felt his finger rubbing KY all around. I felt his finger push inside and I moaned just a little like I always did. it felt good. I felt his finger going in then all the way out a few times. I asked him about it. he said I needed more lube in this position. I said okay. I told him it felt good and I was ready whenever he wanted to do the check. He said okay.
I felt something pushing in and it made it all the way inside. It felt so good. I thought it must be the extra KY. I felt it moving in and out a little. Then I felt it move in and out and he kept moving it. It was feeling really good. I tried to see, but couldn't. I lifted my head and shoulders up far enough to see the doctor was between my legs moving his whoile body up and back. He saw me looking. He stopped. He looked at me and asked me if he could finish what he was doing. I said yes, it feels good doc. And I will expect this everytime I come back too, okay. He said okay, but only for physicals, other appointments are too short. I told him I would think of ssomething. He said okay.
He started moving in and out again. As he ****** me I felt so good. I grabbed my **** and stroked it in motion with him. We both came at the same time. He filled my *** with his ***, I shot all over myself with mine.
He pulled his **** out and it wasn't real big, but not too small. He told me the KY would come out on it's own and to not worry about it. I told him this was out little secret, but it wasn't going to be the only one. He did have a nice looking ****. If I can't have it back there, I would definately suck it off during my next visit.
Now if only this would really happen....and I am willing for it to be a woman with a *******!
What a hot fantasy <br />
Go to Docs twice a year for "check ups" - with a nurse of similar age to me but shame is she never asks me to *****...............if only!!!!
this is anothr hot story jimz2 your the best!b
interesting fantasy!
I guess that's the good thing about being a female...can't be too sure unless you see *** or hear the sounds of excitement. I think my sigh may be have been interpreted as me not being ok. I just hope he didn't realize that I thought it felt good. Even if he did, oh well...he won't see me again for another year. :)
Yes and at least one other person in the room too. When he's doing the breast exam, I keep hoping that my nipples don't get too hard. I know that it's his job and that he see's all kinds of bodies but still....the cool temps and then his hands. It's like...dude just go for it and make me ***. I end up going home and taking care of things myself. Talk about one heck of an ******.
I know what you mean. I get pretty excited about it. I know that this is TMI, but the last exam I went to was last month and I swear, I thought I was going to *** all over the dr. when he put his finger in me and started to feel around. I sighed and he asked me if I was ok. I said yes. I wanted to tell him to keep going...couldn't though. Sorry about the TMI.
Like Sarah, I have a fantasy about going to the gynecologist too.
That's a very hot fantasy. Nurses and doctors are always a good fantasy! Good for what ails you? Lol....

After the jump, a three minute behind-the-scenes commercial for a commercial about e-cigarettes starring longtime smoker Stephen Dorff. Oh, yes, that is correct! There is so much demand for a Stephen Dorff commercial for e-cigarettes that they released a full on commercial for the commercial that is 10 times longer than any normal commercial. SO DOPE. It's also just a very cool commercial. It has jazz playing in the background, kid! Stephen Dorff enjoys the freedom (his word) that smoking e-cigs (his word) provides. "If I want to smoke in a restaurant, I can. People might give me a weird look, but then they'll realize that they don't smell anything." Fucking cool as ice, bro. I'll smoke to that! Here is Stephen Dorff smoking on a balcony. Here is Stephen Dorff smoking on a couch. Is that a hot lady? Hell yeah it is! If anything it is crazy at this point if you DON'T smoke an e-cigarette. It's just too cool. You have to do it. Do you think that you are cooler than Stephen Dorff? What makes you think that? Oh, pro-tip, make sure to carry extra AAA batteries in your pocket for your megaCOOL e-cigarette that you're smoking in the restaurant and getting everyone's attention so that the cool never stops. "Who's Mr. Cool head over there?" It's you. And the best part? Nobody smells a goddamned thing.
Wait. Wait. This ad is a recreation of another ad, which was also for e-cigarettes, that Stephen Dorff and his friend JUST DECIDED TO SHOOT ONE AFTERNOON FOR THE HELL OF IT? Sure. That sounds like a normal thing that happens. "What are you doing?" "I don't know, nothin'." "Hey, I've got an idea. But first: do you have a camera?" It's so organic that the e-cigarette company approved of Stephen Dorff's homemade e-cigarette ad's creative direction. (WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!) But now they have to reshoot the ad? Why? What's wrong with the first ad? Who is ever even going to see any of these ads? Ugh. Now I'm all wound up! I need a nice, strawberry flavored e-cig to calm me down. Just kidding. Don't make me barf. (Via FilmDrunk.)
You Might Also Like
you'd think we had all learned our lessons from Feardotcom and know that Stephen Dorff and the internet just don't mix.
this has nothing to do with e-cigs, but speaking of horrible internet-based slasher movies, i'd just like to share this trailer for this real actual movie that someone paid money – probably A MILLION DOLLARS? – to make and that stars keith david for some reason? (keith!)
OUR generation's feardotcom.com. "the tweets are coming from inside the house!" – this movie, probably.
electronic cigarette manufacturers
Electronic Cigarette Company has quality wholesale retailers & Manufacturers who offering a best electronic cigarette brand through guaranteed shipping services at your home on reasonable price. -
It is interested watching this industry grow up though. There is already a huge demand for ecigs and it is barely in its infancy. It will be interesting to see what happens when the various governments lay down the various laws on the subject. It will kill of a lot of the smaller brands looking to make a quick buck where as some of the largers brands like Neat Cigs and <Ecig Wizard will be able to cope and become an authority in the market.

She has went to the range and shot with me before, and watched a few matches I was in, but still can't even get her to consider CCW. She knew I was a gun nut when she married me, and her knowledge of guns she not the reason I married her, so I guess I am ok with that.

Consumer Affairs Files Security Freeze Regulations
Consumer Affairs Files Security Freeze Regulations
"The security freeze regulations take effect immediately and, for the first time, give consumers access to a critical tool they need to protect themselves when their personal information is compromised," said Director of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation Daniel C. Crane.
Specifically, the regulations:
- Require credit reporting agencies to post information on their websites on how to go about placing, lifting and removing a security freeze;
- Limit fees for placing, lifting or removing a freeze to $5.00;
- Require credit reporting agencies to issue a freeze within three business days of receiving the request; send a written confirmation of the freeze within five business days; and temporarily lift or remove a freeze within three business days;
- Prohibit credit reporting agencies from unilaterally removing a security freeze because of a consumer's misrepresentation without giving the consumer five days prior notice; and
- Prohibit the consumer credit agency from changing a consumer's name, date of birth, social security number or address until a security freeze is removed without sending written confirmation of the change within 30 days of posting the change.
Additional consumer information about how to obtain and remove a security freeze, including contact information for the three credit reporting agencies, is available online at www.mass.gov/consumer.
The new identity theft prevention law also requires OCABR to issue regulations on standards for the protection of Massachusetts residents' personal information that is owned, licensed, maintained and stored by others. The agency will publish those guidelines within the next 30 days and plans to schedule a public hearing in January.

Firefly June 03, 2012 3:03 PM MotoGP » 2012 MotoGP World Championship standings This is oddly reminiscent of last year. Lorenzo had a good lead after Rossi bowled off Casey in Jerez. People were talking as if the championship was done already. Let's see where we are in August before predicting anything. Reply Report abuse 0 agree 1 disagree

Firefly May 17, 2012 9:27 PM IndyCar » Indy 500: Newgarden fastest, then spins I can't get over how ugly that car is. It looks like a sick experiment where someone tried to cross a formula car with a sportscar. It's even worse than the 2009 F1 cars! Reply Report abuse 0 agree 0 disagree
Firefly May 13, 2012 5:43 PM WSBK » Rea wins after last corner chaos Uhm, yeah after seeing the video that was clearly Rea's fault. In my opinion he should be disqualified. That's just clearly punting another rider off the track. Reply Report abuse 9 agree 4 disagree

I did a search in this forum and didn't find much of anything on this, but I was talking to a relative of mine and noticed a huge staple in her ear when she turned her head. Apparently this is the latest thing where she lives. It is supposed to interrupt the nerve signal telling you that you want to eat. She said it hasn't helped, but that her sister (a nurse) has been trained to do the stapling and apparently to do it correctly you must use this locator device to find the nerve (which her person did not do). To me this sounds somewhere inbetween dangerous and bizarre, and though I wouldn't do it myself I'm curious as to whether folks are having success. One of my best friends says a clinic opened in her hometown and people are dropping weight like flies. I just hope my 130 lb sister doesn't hear about this...she even took xenical even though she is tiny...she's a sucker for the latest thing and I don't want her walking around with this if it is dangerous. It literally made me think this person looked like a frankenstein with body parts stapled together :lol:
