@Mr. X:
The difference between Benderboy and Andreus is 1) BB confessed and 2)BB apologized to an extent. (I consider a half-hearted one better than none at all.)
Andreus did neither of those things. In addition, he took the drama one step further--he faked his own death, drawing sympathy and tears from JUBbers. I see this as far more egregious than simply posting fake photos.
1. A picture of a penis or an ass by itself really isn't wankable material to me usually.
2. There's such a huge volume of people in Amateur Showcase that far as I can tell never leave it
3. I'm a lot more interested in seeing AS material of people who I know as people at all.. putting an image with a personality or identity, rather than like you say just youngcollegeboixxxx
Amateur porn is great but just seeing very limited angles of a random guy I'll never know don't do much for me I guess.
Yup. We love CE&P but none of us deny what a cesspool it is.
Is it bad Johann that when you talked about your younger ass and your salad days I literally thought you meant "the days you ate salad"?
lol I have never liked veggies very much. I can only eat real salad by pouring copious amounts of Green Goddess Dressing on it.
Apropos the Political Room: half the time I wish the political room would just burn down.
I picture Johann holding a can of kerosene staring at a blazing inferno with a disturbingly nonchalant look on his face while this plays.
Is the Benderboy Winter Collection his, or even this seasons?
I confess that the guy in the avatar is not me. I'm not even a guy, i'm a hedgehog.
I'm surprised nobody has called me out on the fact that i've been asleep during this Benderboy faking scandal.
Seriously, how have i missed this, if it wasn't brought up in convo with another member today, i'd still be none the wiser lol
My sympathy with Seghers for being made out to be the bad guy, UNCOOL.
Hi, Lex-So all the drama is due to pictures? how did it become personal?
Oops! So much for being discrete.
Where the fuck is the delete post button?
^There isn't one on JUB. You have a 10-minute window to edit your posts, but other than that, there's no way you yourself can delete them. You can click the little triangle to report the post and ask the mods to remove it, though.
I want to make up some T-shirts with the image of an attractive young man with the words:
I may add a crying bald eagle. I haven't quite decided.
ha go home ta ya mada
Attempting something I haven't done in years...and have put off for months.
I have no self control from keeping myself from posting in CE&P.
I have to agree....
Everyone seems to post the same pic of their cock and ass and ask if they are big enough (the cock in the pic is usually about 8")
and the comments are always the same...
"oooh you're so hot...post more"
I love it that there are so many exhibitionists, but I can't ever think of a single pic in all the years that I have checked in that made me want to whip out my dick and start beating.
Unless it is someone who has also posted in one of the other forums. And then, almost every time, I feel a frisson.

I confessed that I overslept so much these days until I missed class. I missed classed and the explanation I give them is I am having a fever. I need to fix this! This is my last semester
I confess that I think it is about time I take a break.
I hear that a lot, too. No face, no interest. But it goes beyond that for me. The face is another piece of the puzzle, sure, but a relatively unimportant one to me. The personality is far more intriguing. I'd rather see a cock-or-ass-only photo from an HT poster I've interacted with than a full head-to-toe nude of some random schlub - even the gods that borg mentioned.
Well... most of them I HAVE interacted with, and talked to somewhat, in their nudie threads. How else are you going to get to know someone? Granted - a LOT of that has been the typical "Damn! You're HOT!!!" ... but not always. Getting to know them makes them that much hotter.
Dat set of names!
Same for me. I know discussion does go on inside of and between the AS people, but there's a huge number of them who seem to live there, a totally new crowd to get to know. Although we definitely need a wire running from AS to Hot Topics that sets of a klaxon and an automated verbal alert if a Hot Topics person makes a thread down there.
I do wish more people from Hot Topics would post nudes.
No shame.

I confess to being totally puzzled when JUBbers start a thread, seeking advice, then never post in it again. Like, what's up with that, dude? Did they even bother to read our responses?
Everyone wants to be heard. No one wants to listen.
But if it were attention they were after, wouldn't they keep posting in it to keep the issue going, to get more attention?
I glanced over at AS, to see who had started threads recently. The only name I recognized was KrisHawk, who doesn't post in Hot Topics much anymore. Thankfully. I wonder why he's posting there - I though he had a porn job now.

Brown Demands Relief from Federal Court Order on Prisons
A defiant Governor Jerry Brown is proclaiming an end to the state of emergency in California prisons and demanding that the federal courts let the state run its own corrections system again. But as Ben Adler reports from Sacramento, there's no guarantee the courts will do as he asks.
For years, California's prison system has been one big complicated mess. Two lawsuits led to federal courts taking control of the system's physical and mental health care, and later, a three-judge panel ordered the state to reduce the population of its overcrowded prisons. The US Supreme Court agreed with the panel.
Now, the governor says the prisons are under control. He says the state has spent billions of dollars improving its prison health care, and his realignment program has reduced the number of inmates as much as possible without endangering the public.
"California is a powerful state. We can run our own prisons. And by God, let those judges give us our prisons back. We'll run 'em right," says Brown.
But the state's prison population is still nearly 150 percent of design capacity – and well above the level required by the courts. Prison health care critics say they'll fight the governor on this – and Brown says he's willing to take it all the way back to the Supreme Court.

What videos from Asia Society did you find most interesting in 2013? A look back at our five most-watched videos shows viewers' tastes running the gamut from music to politics to film.
Former Iranian and U.S. diplomats said Tuesday that the interim nuclear deal between Iran and the P5+1 nations has created an opportunity for cooperation on other regional challenges.
Reporting from China, Asia Society Vice President Tom Nagorski reports on some of the many powerful moments in a three-day gathering aimed at bringing great minds and talent together to tackle issues across the Asia Pacific.
After one year in power, Chinese president Xi Jinping has largely consolidated his power, but he still faces "perilous" challenges, according to a panel Thursday night at Asia Society in New York.
Mohsen Vaziri-Moqaddam shares the inspiration behind his trailblazing interactive sculpture, begun in 1969 and now on view in Asia Society Museum's Iran Modern exhibition.
"I have to tell you, Andy liked to stay in his hotel room and call New York, order room service," said Bob Colacello.
The headline really says it all. Press play to watch a puppet-sized King of Pop perform one of his biggest hits ... sequin glove, moonwalk and all.
It may never be quite clear how much credit Indonesia's government deserves for righting its currency after its recent tumble, according to two analysts with the consultancy Control Risks.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said Thursday that his government would leave "no stone unturned" while seeking a mutually acceptable solution to the nuclear impasse.
Watch Myanmar's foreign minister discuss the "gold rush" in his country, and hear why MTV's founder thinks this is a "historic opportunity."

While the Nuts & Bolts sidebar was useful and interesting, the text review itself was odd. All feeling and almost no substance. -
mk2ster Posts: 1I had a chance to check out the car this saturday at the Orange county auto show.
My first impression is that the car is absolutely stunning both inside and out. By 4:00 pm there was quite a gathering of people wanting to go and just sit and feel the car. I for myself sat for ten minutes inside the cockpit provoking one guy to get on his knees so that he can get his turn.
I think the Lexus IS250 is now out of the question and so is Audi A4. The new 2007 BMW 335i sedan is still the leader but for 10grands or so less, 07 G35 will clearly be the winner for a lot of people.
I am 6,3 and weigh about 220 lbs. It took me some adjusting before I could fit in the drivers seat. The telescopic steering definitely helped and so did the seat extension which provided additional support for my long legs. I don't think anyone taller that 4.5 feet would fit comfortably behind the drivers seat. The passenger side is a different story, I positioned myself comfortably on the front and then asked my friend who is about 5ft 7 inches to sit behind me, he said he could fit in with no worries.
I found the driver seat laterally constraining compared to the seats on the G35 coupe, BMW 3 series and the Audi A4. Also I found the BMW 3 series and the Audi A4 had better vertical height travel as far as height adjustment is concerned. For most people, this won't matter unless you are above 6ft tall and a bit fat. But again you might compromise other aspects of driving ergonomics if you have to adjust your seats to their extreme limits. As for myself, my goal is to loose 30lbs in the next 5 months and then give the car another shot .... talk about motivation.
The infiniti guy I was talking to said that by Oct 15 several dealerships in los angeles will have the car on their lots so that people can test drive them and the car will go on sale by early to mid nov. Price wise, he said not to quote him (but I will) approx a grand or two more than current line up. Quite frankly, I still think it will be worth the money. -
chicosmilez Posts: 1I am a Infiniti Technician and I can tell everyone there should be a sample G35 in almost every showroom. The car really is beautiful. And it drives like a dream. We took a good look at it and it seems that it will turn out like the new M series, which has been flawless in reliability and has given us no trouble. I highly recommend the new G to anyone.v

kj123 Posts: 11
newcarman Posts: 55So the car is in the showroom already?? Any prices yet?? I live in the Ny area and havent heard anything about the G35 launch date.
What area are you from and how does the car look in person compared to the pictures?/
What would you estimate a G35 AWD with premium package to run?/ Thank you. -
topgun7 Posts: 410I went to a norther California dealership this afternoon and they have a G35 sport on the floor. The car look great. Interior material look and feel very good. The layout of the instrument etc was very nice. Trunk is pretty good size if one don't opt for the 6CD changer. No test drive until 1st week of Nov (carp). I would love to see the rosewood interior and how the chorme strip on the trunk work out on exterior color other than silver. It is certainly one of the more impressive Infinite product and comparable to some lexus cars (and I have six Lexus since 91)
ahe Posts: 8I test drove a brand spanking new infiniti G35 Sedan with sports package today in Oakland, CA and I must say I was very impressed.
1st - The car looks better in real life than in any internet photos. Makes the 15 or so 06 G35's left on the lot look bland in comparison. The interior is much improved and reminds me the Acura TL interiors. I could not stop looking at this car - 19 inch rims, sick headlight design (Reminiscent of the M class) and completely redone instrument panel. Car was equipped with voice activated navigation system and infinti studio on wheels. The brushed wasi aluminum panels is my only compaint about the interior - the material just looks cheap like recycled metal. If I were to purchase an 07 G I would definitely go for the wood trim interior
(Didn't blast the radio but thought the sound system was decent - didnt have an mps disk to slide in so will reserve judgement on sound system until the next test drive).
2nd - The ride with the sports package was noticibly stiffer than the base sedans and acceleration was on par with the 06 G's I test drove. Honestly I was not able to tell the difference between the two cars engine wise (i.e. the 8 hp increase) - Only took the car up to 70 mph though because the 3 wk newbie salesman sitting next to me asked me to cool it. There were two odd looking gear shifters positioned beneath the steering wheel which I didn't really test out.
3rd - there is no pricing available for the new G's from my dealership. The salesman told me she had sold half of her inventory of new G 35's to customer who ordered the car before they had arrived - [non-permissible content removed]. She wanted 1500 down to gurantee delivery of a car...I politely declined.
Overall I am very impressed by the redesign of the new G. The new styling definitely takes this car to another level.
Why would anyone buy an IS - IMO the G beats the pants off the IS in the styling department for 4 grand less.
On the other hand this dealership was pretty desperate to get rid of all remaining 06's on their lot - salesman tried several times to entice me into buying an 06.
Offer was $29,000 for an 06 G35 with premium package C.
Correct me if I am wrong but that equates to about $6000 below invoice after premium package has been added on. Bottom line is how much more do you want to spend for an 07 g35 with killer looks but relatively little in the way of changes with the engine - is the $6000 price tag worth it?
I am undecided and plan on taking another test drive soon.
Good luck all! -
gurug Posts: 24I paid a visit to check out the new g35 at a local dealer and here are some impressions. if you are interested in a particular piece of information, post it on the forum and i will try to answer. i did not drive it so no drive wise questions.
the car looks very goood. from the rear it resembles a g35 and from the front it looks like a slimmer M. I do wish it was wider, but very nice to look at nevertheless. The only ugly thing was the silver lip spoiler on the rear, it MUST b removed cuz it spoils the look of the car, perhaps a matching color mite have been a better choice.
Also, i know this may sound way too finichky, put the radar cruise panel in the front gives the car a slightly less symmetrical look. Its a a very small black panel wich is presetn on the lower ride size and replaces a small piece of the lower body panel.grill..
The interior is specatuclar. The navigation system is much better than leading systems like acura i personally think. The voice recognition was average but you do not have to press a button every time like on the acura(extremely annoying). For those less familiar, here is an example. Lets sat i want to enter a phone number in threee parts. 123-456-7890. Now on the acura, i first press a button n say call, then i press a button to say 123, then press again to say 456, then press agian to say 7890 then press again to say dial. in the infiniti, u just initiate by pressing button once then follow prompts (waiting for a tone cue). However, the system is still does not allow you to speak commands pre-emptively whcih is really annoying but thats a common problem.
The navigation system is touch screen based and the maps look spectacular. the route calculation was fairly quick. The screen also display audio information. You could set bass, treble, fade and balance, but thats about it. I was expecting more sub woofer control as there are theree in the car. You also have a button for settings which display various information like maintainance and stuff.
The car does have a compact flash slot. Interestingly, as we know the nav is hdd based and it was rumored that the hdd based cars loose the cd changer. that is not true. in the cars with hdd, the changer moves to the trunk. you get one disc slot in the front, the compact flash slot, and the hdd music box, so thats a fair trade off.
One the of the most interesting things i noticed was in the arm rest. Yes there is car charger slot there. Right next to it is the aux input. Whats so intersting about that? Well it seems that the aux input is AV. Yes, there were there THREE AV composite sockets there including the conventional yellow one for video. I can not confirm if it does video aux or not, but i am pretty sure it does. so now u have inputs for video aux and stereo audio aux built in. that just gives new meaning to ease of installation for things like car pc, ps2, xbox and stuff, all beautifully displayed on teh lush center console screen.
The buttons and interior finish and quality are a marked improvement over my current 06 coupe. the buttons were firm and responsive and the car just simply felt better made than before.
The paddles behind the steering were large, felt natural and easily accessible. The seats were very comfortable and offered good support. Being the S model, the car also had power controls for the bolster supports which can really pack u in the seat, butreally might mean alot to some one more heavily built (read wider) than me.
at first glamce the difference look subtle, however the r significant to me. i am definitely going to upgrade (waiting for the new coupe).
random thots:
there is no mention of a differemt suspension for the sport model.
the rear view camera can not b had without radar cruise.
the paddle shifters r only on the sport model.
seat controls have moved to the left lower side of the seat.
seats r still not cooled, only heated.
u press the start button without foot on brake to just turn on accessories. foot on brake then press button to start car.
will add more later if i remember anything -
cocadester Posts: 1My local dealer is taking deposit right now for the 07 G35 sedans. With a deposit, they will put me in queue for one that they receive in their first batch in Nov., and they will sell it to me at MSRP. Is this a buy? Do you think I can find another dealer who will sell it for below MSRP? TIA.
kj123 Posts: 11I'm in Texas. I drove the S model, which is Sport. It had all possible options. Sticker price is supposed to be $1000-2000 higher than current and they will not budge on the price for several months. First round of cars will be delivered the first or second week of Nov. Very few coming to each dealer, 15 or so for the first month.

Have you ever driven an Acura?
I own an 06 MDX.
You're wrong.
There's a trigger like button behind the wheel... smartly placed, I may add.
Pull the trigger once and the system is now listening.
(You'll hear a tone)
You say...
"Call 555-123-4567"
The voice asks you to confirm and you then hit the button again and say "Yes" or "Call"
Yes, that's 2 button hits....
Imagine the calories burned!?!?!
Acura has by far, beaten the competition in regards to Navigation... read any review.
And let's not forget the Bluetooth functionality.
Flawless in the Acura, people can't even tell I'm in the car.
Let's hear you say that about the G.
With all that being said, the 07 G is beautiful, and plan on giving it a very fair comparison while looking for a second car this Spring.
Since I'll be looking for a G35x, I very much hope the brake issues are corrected this year.
Just wanted to comment on the Acura, it's a fantastic system which shines compared to Lexus, Infiniti, BMW and the likes. -
gurug Posts: 24Yes i owned a 06 Pilot (same nav system as Acura) and my friend has a TL.
With that out of the way, i dont think u understand my point. Yes you could say the number like that in an infiniti as well. but my point is that lets say you want to break it up into threee parts. then for each part, you gotta press a button. know wat i mean ?
also for the example u used, you need to press the button for the confirmation right, in the infiniti you do not. point proven
as far the bluetooth. they work fairly well in both. however, the TL is a much less noisier car ( the infiniti is more sport oriented, trade offs) so it has better outgoing sound...
Yes the acura are nice cars but too plain for my taste. its just a matter of preference. I loike the sportier, better looking infinitis also that TL is not available in coupe form these days neway.
i dont think nething shud b taken personally, these are just opinions. i personally like hte infinitis and their tech, you might prefer the acuras. its all cool. -
dhamilton Posts: 873just drove one in Houston. A big step up in interior quality. Acceleration felt stronger than outgoing model. The horsepower increase is bigger due to SAE regulations, meaning the last model power ratings have gone down. It was a paddle shift with sports package, and it felt very buttoned down. I leaned on it hard once in a strait line and acceleration felt very smooth and linear to me. The nav can work 3 different ways. Voice command, buttons, or touch screen.
All in all a very cool car and a worthy option to the almighty 3 series. Now if Audi can join the horsepower war I'll be happy.... :blush: -
cainep Posts: 35Here's what I found on another Infiniti site. Hope it's OK to post the link instead of cut-and-pasting the info.

gurug Posts: 24these prices listed are impossibly low... i am expecting these to be low balling the overall price by around 3k.
if these are the actual prices, then its an amazing deal for the stuff they are offering. i was thinking of dropping the technology package from mine, but i think i mite keep it if it is that low price. -
needg Posts: 13I went to the G35 event last night at Frontier Infiniti in San Jose, and the price for the sport model was on display in the window. $39,000 for the sport, w/sunroof, navigation, technology, and I believe premium package(I assumed premium package because dealers usually make you get it w/nav). They had the price for everything itemized out, and it looked pretty close to that list cainep posted. I didn't pay too much attention to the value of each item, I was more focused on the car having nav and the sport package and being at 39K. It looked nice; much nicer than the current G. The new G looks better than the pictures, and when you see it next to a 2006 model it looks even better. I was shocked to see the price stay so low, as I was expecting a 2-3K increase like everyone else.
After seeing the car up close, I agree with what some others have posted. The interior is nice, I actually like the washi aluminum. Better leather, nav is pretty awesome and quick(I was calculating different routes in the showroom), composite video in the center console(salesman confirmed it's not for music at all but wouldn't confirm if you could plug dvd player or whatever in there), seats have side lumbar adjustability, and rear seatroom seamed pretty good (I hated the rear seats on the '06 because they felt hollow due to the reclining feature).
On the downside, the interior still not as nice as BMW or Lexus, but the difference is a lot less now. Center console can fit a radar detector and sunglasses, and that's about it...still better than the IS 350 though. The driver seat feels a little tight on the side legs and isn't adjustable(I'm not a very big guy 5'8 170lbs).
The last two complaints really piss me off because they would be so easy to fix. The front grill is made of plastic. Why? :confuse: :confuse: :confuse: I own an I30 and have owned a Q45 and G20...all with metal grills, why move to plastic now? It looks cheap and will get rock chips like no tomorrow I'm sure. And, if they use plastic for the grill, an obvious piece of the car that everybody will see, to save costs, then what else did they cheap out on? This just has me worried about the car 8 years down the road, because that is how long I like to keep my cars. I'm not one of those guys that is going to keep my car in pristine condition or gets the clear bra in the front, but plastic...my girlfriend's civic has a plastic grill. Give me a break. Lastly, this is my gripe with Infiniti and several other manufacturers. What exactly is supposed to be able to fit through the ski pass through? Yeah, skis, but hasn't anybody heard of snowboards? :mad: This thing will not fit a snowboard to save its life, and there's no reason for it not to. Expand the hole by a few inches and you're good; I do not see any reason why they couldn't do that. Are they trying to get me to buy a ski rack or something? I like to go snowboarding a lot, and this small passthrough could cause me to look elsewhere when it's time to replace my car as skiracks don't really look sexy to me.
Other than that, looks like some nice improvements...I think I left some drool in the car when playing with the touchscreen nav. :blush:

Dear Keith, I'm sorry to say that my order has been cancelled and Society6 have refunded my money - apparently Casemate have refused to print this image. I can't tell you enough how disappointed I am. Just thought I'd let you know. Perhaps have a chat with the fine folks at Society6 and get the full lowdown. Cheers, Vanessa
What?! You are kidding me. Haha, I noticed that an order was cancelled, but I'm shocked to hear that a company would refuse to make money off of this... Pretty much ridiculous.
i'm getting on top of this bud. and if i don't hear anything from either S6 or case-mate, i'm going to try and order one straight through case-mate and see if they print it that way.
Esta ilustración es un completo plagio/This illustration was stoled
I'll have to contact the other artist as I am unfamiliar with his/her work, this illustration was drawn from an uncredited/copyrighted photograph - which goes for the same for their image as well.
This wasn't stolen. I've seen that illustration before, several years ago. It was based on a self portrait a girl took on tumblr.
Hi Keith, I'd like to know which frame border I have to get to put your print(8x10). Cheers from Paris ;)

Maybe because the time period the vampires are from, fewer amount of the population were overweight? I might be wrong but I thought that the amount of people being overweight has increased in recent years, due to unhealthy diets ect. So, considering the vampires from twilight were human in a different century, a higher amount of the population were considered in a healthy weight range. And, vampires, once being changed into a vampire are frozen in their current human state. Therefore making them unable to lose or gain weight because they are not able to change.
Still, there should be at least some that exist! Especially in the newborn army.
Personally, I think it's because the vampires largely conform to Meyer's ideal of beauty which tends toward the slender, but if you want an attempted (and completely bullshit) justification of it in universe, I guess that during the vampirization process where everything is crystallizing or whatever, there would a) be a HUGE energy requirement and so the fat reserves were burnt by the body during the process (Don't ask me how a toxin entering the body can be metabolising fat reserves, I am literally making this up on the fly) and/or b) the fat cells themselves may not transform as efficiently and so be lost. This falls apart when you consider that the female vampires still have boobs but... that's all I got.
Actually, that does make some sense. I remember when Bella transformed, in addition to fixing her birthing injuries, the venom did stuff like spontaneously straighten her nose. So maybe the venom makes vampires conform to Meyer's idea of beauty.

Byline: Peter Hartlaub Daily News Staff WriterA self-proclaimed Super Lotto skeptic, John Wurts plays only when the pot is big. On Friday, he played 52 times.
With an unusually high $40 million at stake for tonight's drawing, Wurts and thousands of other lottery naysayers couldn't help themselves, lining up to buy tickets alongside the office pool representatives and other Lotto regulars.
``Only a fool would play a Lotto ticket,'' Wurts joked after collecting a fistful of quick picks from a clerk at a Woodland Hills 7-Eleven.
It's the largest jackpot since another $40 million prize a year ago, but far from the record of $118 million set in April 1991. Regardless of the size, the odds of picking the right six numbers are the same - 1 in 18,009,460.
Tonight's jackpot is a landmark: For the first time since the contest started in 1986, the winner or winners must choose to receive their payment in one lump sum, instead of the 26 annual payments.
There's just one catch. If you check the box for the lump-sum payment, it will be less than the $40 million because the jackpot is based on what the state would have earned in interest over 26 years.
``A very rough estimate would be half the amount,'' California State Lottery spokeswoman Norma Minas said. Taking the money in 26 increasing payments, however, would give you $40 million.
If the $40 million jackpot goes to one winner who picks the long-term plan, that person would get $1 million the first year, with the annual payment increasing slightly until the $2.04 million payout on the 26th year.
The numbers will be posted at 7:57 p.m. Tickets must be bought by 7:45 p.m. Harginder Singh, who manages the 7-Eleven at Fallbrook Avenue and Ventura Boulevard, said a local man won part of a $23 million jackpot at his store several years ago.
``He never came back to thank me,'' Singh said.
In a pastime full of superstitions, tips from fortune cookies and intricate picks involving pro athletes' jersey numbers and children's birthdays, Wurts lets the computer pick for him, and says he only plays when the jackpot is big.
He came close to winning last week, correctly picking four of six on one of his tickets. Most of the $83 he won went back to Lotto tickets for tonight's jackpot.
``Well, once the jackpot gets over $17 million, the amount that's paid out is over the amount that's paid in,'' he theorized. ``I'll let the Lotto pay my way for this one.''
Paul Sherman of Woodland Hills said he buys tickets twice every week, adding, ``It doesn't matter if the jackpot's $40 million or $3 million.''
Sherman correctly picked five out of six numbers a few years ago, earning about $4,000, but he figures he's lost a lot more than that over the years.
``They don't let you win - they're smart,'' he said.
Sherman received little solace when informed that some of that money might have gone to help California schools. ``That's good, I guess.''
BIGGEST JACKPOT: $118 million on April 17, 1991. It was split among 10 winning tickets in which 54 winners had a share.
FAST FACTS: The California State Lottery began in 1985, offering the Lotto game a year later. The current jackpot, $40 million, is the largest since April 1997. The drawing is 7:57 tonight, tickets must be purchased by 7:45 p.m.
BIGGEST SINGLE-TICKET WINNER: $51 million to Augustine Chairenza on June 18, 1994. Ticket was purchased in Lompoc.

CORVALLIS, Ore.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Former Indy Racing League driver and quadriplegic Sam Schmidt got behind the wheel several times during race week for the 2014 Indianapolis 500, which kicked off May 18, 2014. Schmidt started off the week completing two warm-up and four qualifying laps on Pole Day in a modified 2014 C7 Corvette Stingray controlled by his head using OptiTrack motion capture technology. Schmidt's trip around the track maxed out at speeds of 80 miles per hour and marked his first laps on a professional raceway since a 2000 crash at Walt Disney World Speedway in Orlando left him paralyzed. He also served as the ceremonial pace car for the Indy Lights Freedom 100 on Carb Day, and on Monday following the Indy 500, Schmidt went at it again, this time topping speeds of 106 miles per hour. Continue Reading »
(CNN) — Hilary Lister had had the difficult conversation with her husband — a few times in fact. The quadriplegic had finally made the decision to end her life, had prepared to say goodbyes to Clifford and the rest of her family.
"It got to a point where I evaluated my life," Lister told CNN. "I had to decide whether the space that I take up on the sofa [which unable to move she had done for hours and days on end] was still worth inhabiting.
"I came to the conclusion it wasn't. I was at a very, very low point.
"I knew if and when my condition got any worse I would end my life. That was a decision myself and my husband were both aware of. You don't make that decision on your own, you have to prepare yourself." Continue Reading »
HENDERSON, Nev. – A 1999 IndyCar sits inside Sam Schmidt's Las Vegas-area home. One day, Schmidt, who is a quadriplegic, hopes to drive it again. The notion is not as far-fetched as it might seem.
Schmidt already has started driving a passenger car again. He will get to publicly display his prowess later this month at Indianapolis Motor Speedway when he helps unveil an innovative technological achievement.
A black 2014 Corvette C7 Stingray has been fitted with advanced electronics and a human-to-machine interface to allow people with disabilities similar to Schmidt's to drive solo. Continue Reading »

After the highly anticipated The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Pt. 1 honeymoon scene between Robert Pattinson and his real-life love Kristen Stewart, RPattz tried out his on screen love making skills on a few other actresses that's ages range from 32 to 51.
The 25-year-old had no problem slipping into the role of playboy Georges Duroy in the period piece Bel Ami. The filmed is filled with love scenes between the Twilight heartthrob and his costars Christina Ricci, 32, Uma Thurman, 41, and Kristin Scott Thomas, 51.
Christina had no problem taking on this sexy role alongside RPattz, admitting one of the film's junkets:
"He has the perfect amount of intensity for this part, but of anything was ever awkward or uncomfortable, we were able to make fun of ourselves and each other. 'This is going to be a comfortable day, glad to see we're both in our underwear!'"
Uma also opened up about her sought-after costar to Harper's Bazaar UK, saying, "To answer the ubiquitous question about this movie, yes, Robert is good-looking in person, but he doesn't have that diamond-sparkle skin like in those Dracula movies."
To see what these women are talking about, check out some stills from some of Rob's sexiest Bel Ami scenes.
The seductive film has yet to hit theaters in the U.S., but is scheduled for a release in the states on June 8.

Somehow, Blake Griffin has become maybe the most forgotten No. 1 overall pick ever. Busting a knee and missing your entire first season will do that to you. But then again, even after Greg Oden did the same, people couldn't stop talking about the Blazer big man.
Maybe that's actually good thing for Griffin.
But after taking almost a full year off from real competitive basketball activity, Griffin returned to the court last night in the Clippers' first preseason game. His line won't wow you - nine points, seven rebounds, five turnovers in 22 minutes - but keep in mind, this was his first night back. He can tell us that he wasn't thinking about the knee and that the mental part of returning from injury is past him, but on his first night back on the hardwood, surely he was thinking about it.
Here's the thing though: Griffin is back. He's completely healthy. His explosiveness is there, his lateral quickness is there and his ridiculous ability for a 6'10, 265-pound beast, is there.
The best description you can give Griffin on the basketball court is an animal. If he were a defensive end, every analyst would talk endlessly about his motor. They'd talk about how he never quits on plays. He lays it all out on the court and though last night's affair against the Blazers was a meaningless preseason game, that signature Griffin energy, hustle and desire was there.
While other rookies like John Wall and DeMarcus Cousins are raising more eyebrows, Griffin quietly had a decent comeback night. It wasn't anything spectacular and it wasn't a box score line that made you take notice. But if Griffin showed anything last night, it's that you'll be reminded of his presence often this year. It's hard to overlook a player of his caliber for too long.
Al-Farouq Aminu, Clippers - Whoa boy. Not the debut the rookie has been dreaming about. Eighteen minutes, one point, four turnovers, 0-3 from the field, zero rebounds, assists, blocks or steals. And he fouled out. Yikes and yikes.
Granted, not everyone should expect all rookies to have impressive performances their first time out on the NBA hardwood. There's a litany of factors. Nerves, preparation (or lack thereof), ignorance - all of that and more can add up to a rookie crapping the bed in his first appearance.
Our future CBS friend Ben Golliver had this to say about Aminu: "You've heard of the 'deer in the headlights' look? This was more like a "'I'm standing underneath the meteor that created the Grand Canyon and both my legs are broken and uh oh it's about to hit me oowwwwwwww' look. Off the top of my head I can't think of another player who had his combination of physical potential and complete mental unpreparedness during the last four seasons."
Have I said "yikes" yet? Oh, twice already? That's probably a bad sign.
However, it's not like Aminu impressed new coach Vinny Del Negro much. Especially not to the point where Aminu is looking at real NBA playing time this year. While it's only preseason, this is a chance to shine, to make an impression. And Aminu definitely made one. Just not a good one.
Derrick Favors, Nets - Some good, some bad for the new Nets big man. I'm sure the Nuggets have a close eye on Favors right now and you can guarantee the Nets are hoping he showcases some serious skill.
And while his first game numbers aren't bad (14 points, nine rebounds, 6-8 from the floor in 20 minutes), his second game was a bit underwhelming (four points, five fouls, three turnovers, one rebound in 13 minutes). It's not that Favors didn't flash ability, it's just that he showed what rookies in his mold are like. Inconsistent.
Favors is a project and to expect him to translate his ridiculous athletic ability into something now is unrealistic. Sebastian Pruiti of NetsAreScorching put it well: "Derrick Favors struggled with fouls the entire night and fouled out in slightly more than 12 minutes of playing time. I didn't see the game, but I am guessing that Favors got pump faked one or two times. Bad games are going to happen with a 19 year who is still learning. The key is for these bad games to take place less and less."
Exactly it. Favors isn't winning Rookie of the Year. He's part of a process and the more minutes he sees, the better it'll get.

9 Green Architecture Student Projects That Make the Grade
Posted By Andrew Michler On August 25, 2010 @ 6:29 pm In Architecture,back to school,Sustainable Building | 1 Comment
Be Palettø! [7] is an experiment in architecture for public spaces created by a group of eleven students at the Aarhus School of Architecture [8] in Denmark. They took 420 humble shipping pallets and built a pavilion in the middle of campus to spend a warm summer day between classes in. The structural installation provides shade as well as seating.
Students from the University of Applied Sciences in Detmold [9], Germany recently developed and built this extraordinary Boxel pavilion [10] out of 2,000 beer crates. The temporary freestanding structure was erected on campus to provide the coolest music venue around.
Profiled on eVolo [13], this Parade [12] installation was created by a public arts group based at the University of the Arts [14], London. They used 4,200 milk crates to develop a new architectural space right in the middle of campus.
Students in the design build program [17] at the University of Colorado, Denver built two tremendous projects [16] to enhance a local farm's operations while making a definitive statement about sustainable design. Reuse was the project's core lesson, and this building made of pallets is the beautiful result. Placed on a working farm near downtown Denver, the building will host classes and a farmers market, and will offer place to relax during a hard day's labor.
The design build team also put together this amazing structure [16] which is, of all things, a goat milking shed — but it is so much more. The built-in seating make it a place for human habitation too, and it rises from a core of gabion boxes filled with reused concrete tailings.
This temporary structure [20] was the winning design for the annual Oporto School of Architecture's [21] bar design competition in Portugal. The design is based on a mass produced Ikea tub and is illuminated by LED lights to create the perfect party atmosphere.
A small team of students at Auburn University [24] sought to prove a waste material's viability as a construction product by creating a functional small building [23] out of waxed corrugated cardboard bails. Their success paves the way for experimenting with common materials in new ways.
The FabLab House [26], a solar panel-covered passive building designed by a team from the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia [27], is perhaps the funkiest house we covered for the 2010 Solar Decathlon [28]. This three-legged house is clad in solar panels and is chock full of tricks to keep it cool during the heated competition.
The champion of the 2010 Solar Decathlon was the stunning Lumenhaus [30] designed by students of Virginia Tech University [31]. They just squeezed past the IKAROS House [32] by the University of Applied Sciences [33] in Rosenheim, Germany with a design that adapts precisely to the owner's needs and the current weather conditions. The home pushes the limits of sustainable design and is an incredible vision of the future of sustainable building.

black nationalism
black nationalism
U.S. political and social movement aimed at developing economic power and community and ethnic pride among African Americans. It was proclaimed by Marcus Garvey in the early 20th century, when many U.S. black nationalists hoped for the eventual creation of a separate black nation in Africa. In the 1960s and '70s, Elijah Muhammad and Malcolm X preached the ideal of black nationalism as an alternative to assimilation into the predominantly white culture of the U.S.

In essence, you'll not be 'extending' the money, but instead taking out another loan for that same amount, and agreeing to pay for the credit fee every week
– usually with an additional late fee la concert venues you build a loan listing which includes
the quantity you are willing to pay in interest. -

I don't have novelty lights, but I would venture to say that it would not be sufficient. You could always supplement the lighting with table lamps / floor standing torchieres. |

Planning to Move to or Travel to Korea? Here you will find some useful information and tips that many foreigners wish they knew before they arrived in Korea.
South Korea is located in the Korean peninsula below North Korea. Although the whole of Korea is a peninsula technically south Korea is an island because of the north / south divide. China is located to the west and Japan is located to the east. South Korea is similar in size to Portugal.
Weather in Korea. The Republic of South Korea has four seasons. Korea has a wide temperature difference between summer and winter. There are also two short Typhoon / Rainy periods. For up to date and detailed information visit our weather page.

BOZEMAN — A Wilsall man sentenced to 40 years in prison for escaping from a Bozeman pre-release center and holding his former foster mother hostage has been denied a new trial.
Gallatin County District Court Judge John Brown on Wednesday ruled that the request by 26-year-old Charles Dustin Rickett came after a 30-day deadline.
Rickett was convicted on Feb. 27 of aggravated kidnapping, intimidation and escape for the events in July 2012. He received the 40-year sentence on April 25.
"Mr. Rickett's motion is untimely and denied as a matter of law," Brown wrote.
Rickett says he's innocent, and was set up by unknown men he had been partying with in Bozeman.
At his sentencing hearing, defense attorney Steven Scott filed a motion for a new trial citing new information that might have caused reasonable doubt in the jury.
He said Rickett's victim requested restitution for four silver dollars she said were taken from the home, $75 in cash, and a broken toilet seat.
Scott argued that those items were never mentioned in police reports or statements made by the victim. He said the items could have been topics for cross-examination during the trial, raising reasonable doubt.
The victim testified that when she awoke at 7 a.m. on July 8, 2012, a man was standing in her bedroom. She testified that the man blindfolded her and tied her hands behind her back.
She said the man threatened to kill her, used duct tape to secure her to an office chair, and put a pillowcase over her head. She said she never saw the man, but testified he used phrases that she often used with foster kids.
Police arrested Rickett walking near the home shortly after the woman reported the kidnapping. Investigators also found a backpack with Rickett's identification in her living room.

Meet Cheryl and Tessa, a mother and daughter who pledged to spend 100 days getting fit together — and happened to lose a combined 74 pounds along the way. These ladies are amazing. When I first came across this video, I was skeptical. Sometimes "inspirational" videos about losing weight irk me because they encourage a very specific way of looking at body shape, when plenty of women are perfectly happy with whatever size they are right now.

I was skeptical because this looked too simple to result in good roasted chicken. I was wrong - the chicken was moist & roasted just right. Perfect for a weeknight as it was quick to prepare and involves few ingredients.
This was very easy to prepare with things you always have around the house. The chicken is really moist and the roasted garlic cloves are wonderful.

What are the Differences Between Wireless or In-Ground system?
Should I get a wired or wireless dog containment fence? What are the differences between wireless and in-ground dog fences?
In Ground (wired) dog containment systems work by using a boundary wire that you place in a loop forms a perimeter for the containment area. The wire transmits a weak radio signal. The dog wears a collar that picks up the signal when the dog gets too close to the wire. The dog then gets a warning, and if they keep getting closer a correction.
In ground systems create a nice crisp and consistent boundary and for that reason are the most popular systems available. They are also much more flexible and can be shaped to suit almost any shaped yard.
We strongly recommend in ground systems versus wireless systems. It is a little bit more work up front, but you will be much happier with the result. It is for good reason that nearly all professionals still use wired systems. To compare in ground dog fences see here.
Wireless dog containment systems create a circular boundary around a central base station. The boundary is a perfect circle. although you can adjust the radius of that circle. These systems are much more convenient to set up, but they are not anywhere near as good as inground wired systems. Wireless systems tend to have imprecise boundaries, that will move from minute to minute and make it harder to train the dog.
Wireless systems also have trouble getting through trees and maintaining a consistent boundary in sloping yards. They hate being near any large metal objects, particularly refrigerators, water heaters and metal siding which block their signal. It is unpredictable how these wireless systems will work in any individual house.
Where the wireless systems work best is if you have a large open space without many obstacles and with little slope. They are also useful to take camping or with your RV, where being able to quickly set up a temporary boundary is importan.

I'm looking for an in ground system for my dog, he's a german shepard about 11 months old. He is very stubborn and likes to leave the property a lot. If I were to get a system I need one that is capable of monitoring him 24/7. I have heard that the collars can irritate the skin on the animals, is there a recommended time I should take the collar off and leave it off for a period of time? I'm new to learning about in ground fencing because this is the first dog I've had to consider getting one for. Also are they easy to be moved once they are placed?
ADMIN – Hi Candice. Congratulations on your new dog! What is the weight of your German Shepard? What is the size of your property? Are you going to contain your dog in a perimeter loop? We recommend removing the dog collar every 12 hours to ensure collar fit and to check the dogs skin for any signs of irritations. We recommend burying the in-ground dog fence boundary wire 1-3 inches in the ground. Also, it is a good idea to draw a dog fence layout so that you do not have to move the dog fence to another location on your property.

Is the "shock" on an underground fence better than a wireless one? We recently got a wireless one, and on the highest setting my dog will still run off, no care in the world
ADMIN – Hi Tricia, Not necessarily. The key is the collar fit. A dog that leaves with no care in the world is typical of a collar fit problem. Try thinning the fur with scissors where the contact points touch the dog's neck. If any a small amount of fur is covering the contact points, it will prevent the correction from being delivered.

Are the collars for the Wireless fence the same as the collars for the in ground wire fence?
ADMIN – Hi Pepper, no, unfortunately, the collars are different.

Using a wireless system with aluminum siding. Is this a problem. What if the system is installed in an attic (ie no siding, just lumber and shingles)
ADMIN – Hi Yasik, the aluminum siding is going to be a problem. Attic installation will not solve the problem. The signal would be out of range of the collar if placed in the attic.

I have a 2yr old Siberian husky who LOVES to dig out from under the fence. Once she gets out she doesn't listen either. I've had her in one traing class and fixing to get in another for the obedience. But I have a huge back yard and can only do so much as to burying cement stepping stones where she digs. That is our solution right now. I did have a regular hot wire fence up but that didn't last long as in the fence staying in working order! Any suggestion to ease my frustrations:(
Oh and nothing is in the back yard at all because she tears it up. My idea is to contain her to a part of it so I can fix the rest up to enjoy and entertain without falling in holes:) Thanks
ADMIN – Hi Kristie,
Yes, the Huskies are definitely the Houdini's of the dog world. Fortunately, they do well on electronic dog fences. I would use a PetSafe Ultrasmart. The ultrasmart has long prongs, and a collar detection mode that tells you if you have the collars fitted correctly – something that is otherwise tricky with the thick husky undercoat.

I am stuck trying to determine what dog fence to get. I really like the wireless systems due to its ease and flexibility. I have a german shepard (8 months) who is a bit stubborn once she gets out and roams she will not listen to come back. Enjoys her freedom, but I cannot let her do that for her safety. I also like her to run in the lake and open area parks when available.
Do you recommend a electric fence system or is it best to get a shock collar that can be used daily. I have never had either system, but I am getting down to no other choice. Thanks
ADMIN – Hi Craig,
The training collar, and the electric fence are both good tools, but address separate issues.
A dog fence is going to work much better for contain her because it is more consistent – the problem with a training shock collar is that it needs you to be constantly present and inevitably the dog learns that they are only constrained when you are around. If you want to do obedience training (sit, stay, come), a training collar would be a good aide to use with a German Shepherd – they respond well to these collars when used as part of a training regime.
There is one combination system, the Innotek IUC-5100 (wired) Dog Fence. It is a really good dog fence, and also has a built in remote control shock collar. The shock collar is just okay, it is good for close range obedience training but is not good for longer distance off-leash work.

I have one side of my back yard that needs an invisible fence for the chain-link fence hat one of the 3 dogs likes to climb. It is approximately 50 feet. What do I need to order from you?
ADMIN – Hi Jena,
I presume you are just trying to block off that one area, and don't need containment for the rest of the yard. A typical solution to block just that one area would be to run a loop along that chain link, with the wire running along the bottom of the fence, then circling back to complete the loop along the top of the fence.
Happy to make some suggestions, can you tell me more about the dog that likes to climb? (Age, breed, weight, temperament)

I have three Nova Scotia duck Toller dogs( ages 4 months, 2 years, 5 years). They weight 20 lbs., 35 lbs., 36 lbs. What would be your recommendation? Only one of the dogs leaves my 20 acres of land. I am looking at a Guardian underground dog fence; do you think this would be good for me or maybe a wireless system? I live 1/4 of a mile off the road and my dogs run when they see someone come in the yard. Can it be set up around trees? I have a wood section and then a lawn in front of the house. Thanks
CharleenAdmin- Hi Charleen,
Your best option will be a in-ground dog fence. Unfortunately we are not familiar with Guardian dog fence systems and a wireless system will not work since you have a lot of tree cover. My recommendation for your three Nova Scotia will be the PetSafePIG0013619. The system comes with 500 feet of wire and to cover 20 acres, you will need a total of 4500 feet of wire.
