As he leafed through the pages of his magazine, he looked over at the beautiful blonde reading her book. He smiled as he muttered to himself, "I wonder if she knows?"
His stare was now firmly fixed upon the erotic sight before he, as she lay on the grass, her knees drawn up to her chin as she read her book. He wondered if she knew that she was revealing her pink panties, not that he wanted to her close her legs or move on.
"They fit so tight and snug," he muttered once again to himself as she smiled, pretending she was unknowingly showing off her lovely charms.
He continued staring at the beautiful sight before him, while Glenda leaned back against the base of the old oak tree, still reading her book, supposedly unaware that a strangers eyes were ogling her.
Pausing for a moment, Glenda peered over the top of the book, looking around to see if he was watching her. She could see him as he sat on the bench, no further than 10 feet away.
They were only separated by the pathway that split the pieces of park grass. She could see his eyes were transfixed on the show she was allowing him to see. She looked, through her dark sunglasses, as she watched his reaction to what he was seeing.
She had seen him before on her visits to the park, and wondered why he always came alone, and just sat reading his magazine. Glenda liked going to the park, and relaxing under the old oak, to read her books and people watch.
What she liked most of all however, was accidentally exposing her panties to an unsuspecting on looker. Sometimes it was a woman, but most of the time it was a man.
She was amused by those who thought they were being so coy, peeking and looking thinking no one knew what they were up to. She had a sixth sense about people, and could usually tell if someone was safe or if they were someone to steer clear of.
Naturally there was always that chance she could be wrong. Of course that's what made it all the more exciting, the element of danger. Seeing that she still had his undivided attention, Glenda teasingly moved, turning over, and allowing her legs to open a little further as she turned onto her stomach.
"Jeez" he whispered to himself as he watched her move, watching as her legs parted slightly opening even further, as he saw her pink panties dig deeper between her pussy lips.
He felt his cock beginning to rise in his pants, from the arousal of his excitement. Glenda chuckled to herself as she brought her toes off the ground, bringing her heels to her buttocks, with the full knowledge that the action of her doing that, would yet again let him see her panties, only more so.
She wanted him to see her, she wanted him to get hard, and to think of her as he stroked himself whenever he got the opportunity to bring himself to orgasm thinking of her, and her pinky panties.
Glenda was an exhibitionist at heart, and nothing excited her more, than to see someones arousal as they looked at her. "Fuck," he muttered under his breath as his hand moved to his groin, his fingers clutching his cock.
Nervously he looked around, finding there were far to many people walking around to do much of anything. To many people for him to do what he wanted to, which was take his throbbing cock out of his trousers, and stand over the hot blonde by the tree, and being stroking his cock while she watched him cum all over her panties.
As he fantasized about what he'd like to do, Glenda kicked her legs up and down again. It all seemed so innocent, but it was designed to have the desired effect of showing him her pink panties, the ones that were now wedged snugly into the folds of her pussy lips.
Glenda flipped through the pages of her book as if she was reading, albeit reading sparsely, not really taking the words in to her mind's eye. Her mind's eye was too busy, conjuring up her next move.
What she really wanted to do was expose her pussy lips to him and see his reaction. She also wanted him to see the wet spot that was forming or her panties. Her nipples were stiff, and aching as she thought about him seeing her wet panties.
Her nipples craved attention, soft touches, followed by harder touches, like when a lover twists, or nibble on them, all of which makes Glenda so fucking hot. Glenda turned over onto her back again as she held her book high as she laid there, her knees started to part, as her dress slipped higher on her thighs.
She smiled to herself from behind the book thinking the affect she must be having on her admirer. He watched as Glenda turned, watching the way her knees parted as she lay there.
He made sure there was no one close by as his fingers closed around his cock that was now as hard as a rock. His cock was begging for release, begging to be stroked and sucked.
His cock was throbbing, and begging for some sort of release from all this sexual tension that had welled up inside him from looking at this hot blonde across the way. He continued to watch her, the teasing actions she was going through, the way her knees parted a little more, her dress, exposing more of her thighs.
Her panties, and the way their were digging into her pussy lips. How he wanted to get closer to her but how? Glenda lifted her book slightly higher, enabling her to sneak a look at her admirer.
She saw his hand moving as he started rubbing his crotch. She gasped, for even at 10 feet away, she could see that his bulge was huge. Glenda continued to watch as his hand began, groping, gripping and rubbing his big cock through his trousers.
She felt herself getting wetter, her nipples aching even more than before. Now she wanted to expose her breasts, and let him see just how hard her nipples had become just from watching him tease his cock through his trousers.
How she wanted him to stand over her, while she watched him stroke his cock. She wanted to watch the cum spurting from his cock and then raining down onto her breasts, coating her aching nipples with his cum, but even better yet, she wanted that huge cock in her pussy.
She parted her knees further, and dug her ass harder on the grass, trying to rub the dull ache between her legs. All she managed to do was to wedge her panties tighter and deeper into her pussy lips.
She let out a low moan as she watched him. His hand moved over the bulge in his trousers, as his fingers gripped his cock while he continued to watch her. This hot blonde laying no more than 10 feet away from the bench he sat upon was beyond beautiful, making him want her all the more.
It was so incredible the way she was laying there, her legs open, her panties hugging her pussy lips, allowing him see her panties sneaking inside her lips. He watched her teasing ways, the way she wiggled her ass, the way the panties slipped, revealing her dampness.
His hand continued rubbing his engorged cock, as he felt the blood pumping through making it even harder. He looked around to see if there was still anyone around that would see him if he did what he wanted to do so badly.
Seeing it was safe he unzipped his trousers, still looking left, and right as he slipped his hand inside, covering himself with the magazine he had been reading. He knew it was still extremely dangerous, and he knew he could have his ass hauled off to the jail, but even so, the risk was going to be worth it.
He had to feel his cock, he had to stoke it as he looked at her beautiful pussy. With his cock now free he started to move his hand slowly, up and down his throbbing cock. His eyes were fixed firmly on her pussy as he continued his self pleasure.
Glenda looked at the magazine he had strategically placed on his lap. She smiled as she realized why he had done so. She had visions of him stroking his cock as he watched her.
She wanted to watch him as he tugged and stroked his cock. She placed her book on the grass, and sat up looking directly at him. She smiled as he made no effort to hide what he was doing under that magazine.
She smiled at him as she too looked around to see if there was anyone nearby. Seeing it was safe, there was no one looking at her as she slipped her hand inside her legs.
She watched his eyes fix on her hand as she moved her hand to the inside of her inner thigh.
Then she watched his face turn red as her fingers began stroking her lips, and pressing the material of her panties deeper inside her pussy.
She watched him lift the magazine revealing his cock. His cock was so big, it was as if she could almost see it throb. Glenda gasped, and smiled as she stared at his magnificent cock, while she watched his hand moving up and down his rigid shaft.
She winked as she pulled her panties to one side, revealing to her admirer, her bare pussy lips of her freshly waxed pussy. He watched her eyes staring at his cock, while running her tongue over lips. He let out another moan as he watched her slipping the panties to one side.
He watched as her pussy came into view, while she slipped a finger inside herself. His hand started to move faster while he looked on as she began moving her finger along her creamy slit.
He wanted to cum so bad, but not yet, not until he was ready. As he watched her working her finger along her pussy, he found himself wanting to slide his throbbing cock into her pussy, the pussy that he was watching as she worked her finger in and out of her hot pussy.
He wanted to fuck her in the worst possible way. His hand moved faster, as he squeezed his cock while he continued to looking at her, at the show she was giving him as she performed for him.
Glenda continued sliding her finger in and out of her pussy, feeling herself getting wetter and more aroused with his every stroke. Her finger was now matching the pace of his hand.
She found herself fantasizing about sucking his cock, the very same cock she wanted to fill her pussy. Yet she wanted to watch his cock as it erupted all over his hand when he came. His hands look so strong and powerful.
She imagined his hands on her breasts, caressing them, and teasing her nipples, then twisting them as she squealed. She wanted his powerful hands not only on her breasts, but on her pussy as well, caressing and exploring her pussy as well.
She wanted to feel his fingers deep in her pussy, exploring her depths as she moaned and squealed from his touch. Then Glenda looked around again finding it was still clear.
No one looking, no one watching her apart from the the man sitting across from her still stroking his cock. She smiled at him, making a final glance left and right.
He watched as she continued fingering her pussy, adding another as it appeared as if she were trying to match his rhythm. He felt a if he were moving closer and closer to cumming as she watched him.
His hand was moving faster, and he drew closer to cumming. As much as he wanted to hold off, he knew it would be futile. He continued to watch and smiled as he watched Glenda continuing to pleasure herself.
He saw her looking left and right, as if she was checking to see if anyone else was looking. He matched her glances, and then his eyes opened wide as he saw her pull her panties down. He watched as she took them off, and placed them in her purse.
He smiled wide when he saw her totally bare pussy staring back at him. He watched her open her legs for him all the way. He thought he was going to explode right then when she parted her pussy lips just for him. His hand was a blur now as he stroked his cock faster and faster.
His breathing was becoming ragged, deepening, as his heart raced in his chest. The blood pumped into his cock causing the head to swell even more as he saw her slip still another finger into her pussy.
Glenda watched as his hand stroked his cock furiously, knowing that he was probably about to erupt, sending his warm cum into the air. She watched his reaction as she removed her panties, and stuffed them into her purse, closing the purse before slipping two fingers deep into her pussy.
She could heard the squishing sounds her fingers were making in her wet pussy as she began to move them in and out, twisting them as she slammed them back inside her pussy. She too was close to cumming.
The sight of his hand pumping his rigid cock was taking her closer and closer to the edge. She watched as she saw his thick cock head seemed to swell with every stroke of his hand.
She slammed her fingers in and out of her pussy, as she felt her body beginning to shake which meant she was about to cum. She growled as she watched his hand as he stretched out his legs, and watched her fingers pounding into her pussy.
He could see the wet juices from her pussy coating her fingers as he watched her facial expressions. He could see her legs and body as she began to shake, knowing that she was cumming. That was all he needed to see as he let out a throaty moan as his cock exploded.
He spurted his cum high into the air, his cum landing on his magazine, and his thighs marking a mess of his trousers. He watched as Glenda continue to shake as she slammed her fingers deep into her pussy.
He heard her moaning and hissing as her orgasms overwhelmed her. He watched her juices shot out, her pussy juice squirting from her pussy, her fingers firmly implanted deep inside herself.
He heard her moaning as she continued to plunge her fingers in and out of her pussy as her orgasm continued. Once each was finished cumming they smiled at each other.
Afterward Glenda stood up, smoothed down her dress, and then brought her fingers to her mouth, as she looked at him while he watched her as she cleaned her fingers, licking them, and tasting her juices. She walked the 10 feet over to him, and picked up the magazine looking down at his cock.
She smiled, as their eyes met his. Her hand reached down, and took his still hard cock that was covered in his cum. She bent down, and opened her mouth taking the thick head inside her mouth.
She began sucking him down her throat, her tongue licking and lapping over the head as she tasted him. After sucking the residual cum form his cock she stood up and smiled, and looked from side to side one more time.
They were in luck, the park for the most part was deserted. No one was anywhere near them, and with her pussy on fire Glenda wanted nothing more than for him, the man she didn't even know to return the favor, and lick her pussy right then and there.
She turned and sat down on the bench next to him, pulling her skirt up so that her pussy was in full view. He looked over and smiled at her, admiring her pussy up close now. Her lips were covered with her juices, juices from her orgasm.
Her lips were still swollen, and seemed as if they were still throbbing from her most recent orgasm. Her clit was thick and swollen as it too glistened from her juices. He moved from the bench, down onto his knees, and with one last look to make sure there was no one about, he knelt down between Glenda's legs and took in her aroma.
Then he lowered his head, and ran his tongue along her creamy inner thighs as Glenda gasped from the feel of his warm tongue on her soft skin. It was even better than she had imagined it would be, as she started moving his tongue ever closer to her labia.
Inch by inch until she gasped again as his tongue moved onto her wet lips. She closed her eyes as he parted her lips, running his tongue up and down her creamy slit, lapping up her juices as they started to flow once again.
She felt him wiggle his tongue over her opening and then enter her causing her to moan slightly. Then he began working his tongue deep inside her pussy, poking and probing as her heart started to race. It was obvious that he had done this before.
His tongue felt like a small cock as it probed and pleasured her pussy, taking her to the edge yet again. For a brief moment the pleasure stopped as he removed his tongue from her pussy, but was soon replaced with something else, his fingers.
He eased his fingers into Glenda's pussy, exploring her depths as he took her clit into his mouth. As he continued working his finger in her pussy, she found that he was equally adept at sucking her clit.
He alternated between flicking her clit with his tongue, and then sucking it, driving her mad with passion all while fingering her pussy with his talented finger. If that were not enough, she felt his little finger pushing against her asshole, and then gently sliding inside.
He was soon sucking her clit, and working his finger in her pussy as well as her asshole while Glenda grabbed his head, and thrust her pussy into his face. She was rocketing toward another orgasm as this man pleasured her like no other hand before.
Harder and harder he sucked her clit as she pulled his head as hard as she could against her pussy. She knew she should be checking for passers by, but at this point the whole world could have been watching and it wouldn't have mattered.
Finally her body started to shudder, and her legs started to quake as another, even harder orgasm gripped her entire being. Her juices were squirting again, covering her lovers face as he held onto her as her body continued to quake.
Finally her orgasm was beginning to subside, but not before she had experienced the best orgasm she could ever remember. Glenda lifted his head from between her legs, and began kissing her juices from his face and tongue.
She was going to let him fuck her, but there were voices, and they were getting closer. They both stood up, gathering themselves together. Glenda was about to turn, and leave before the people could see them, but her new lover had other ideas.
As the people drew closer, they walked by, oblivious as they continued their lighthearted conversation. He looked back at Glenda, and for the first time she hard him speak. His voice was deep, and so soothing as she said,
"It doesn't have to stop, not before we do what we both want. It'll be dark soon, and then we'll have the park to ourselves. There's a spot not far from here where there are no lights, and no one can see us. Are you interested, or do you want to leave this unfinished?"
Glenda thought for a moment. Any other time she would never have let it go this far, let alone hang around and have sex with anyone. Yet this man was special, there was something about him that was different from anyone she had ever encountered. She looked up and smiled,
"Alright, but only if it is safe."
He smiled as the two of them walked down the path. Neither of them spoke, yet then didn't have to. As they drew closer it was getting darker, and the lights had come on. After a few more steps, he pointed to the left and led Glenda down a narrow path that was lined on both sides by foliage.
Once they had gone a few yards Glenda could see that he had been right. It was very well hidden from prying eyes, and there was a cement bench that would be perfect for their needs.
He stopped and looked at Glenda, his eyes were so warm, and friendly as he lowered his head placing his lips to hers. As they kissed, the fires of passion returned to Glenda as his hands moved down her back to her ass.
His grip was so strong, and yet so gentle as he slowly moved his hands under her dress, and started caressing her ass. She had forgotten she had put her panties in her purse, the air feeling so good on her bare skin.
His hands were on her cheeks again, caressing and squeezing her ass, while she unfastened his trousers letting them fall away. Glenda felt his hand move between her legs, where she realized her fires of passion had not gone out.
His hand began caressing, and lovingly squeezing her mound, while his middle finger eased between her lips. As he pleasured her pussy, Glenda took his now fully erect cock in her hand, where she began stroking him.
She could here him groan as she squeezed his thick cock, while he added a second finger to her pussy. Glenda pushed the straps of her summer dress off her shoulders, allowing her breasts to be exposed.

Birth Control Victory
Birth control will be covered by most employers under health care reform. Read More »
Last night on "The Daily Show," Jon Stewart was freaking hilarious in his coverage of last week's anti-birth control sausagefest in Congress, in which a panel of all dudes tried to argue against President Obama's health care reform compromise. Did you know these men mentioned "spiritual rape," whatever that is, and Josef Stalin? When you have to invoke Stalin (or Hitler, or Mussolini, although let's be honest, no one invokes Mussolini) into an argument to get people on board, you know you're reaching. [The Daily Show]

This 1968 AIP classic has awesome documentary footage of the Haight-Asbury scene while it was at its zenith, framed through the shocked gaze of squares rubbernecking in tour buses like they're driving through an African safari preserve. As for the characters on the street and in the coffee houses, they're pretty damn authentic, at least as (sometimes) written and clothed and (sometimes) acted, if my own memories of playing in psychedelic rock band are correct, which is doubtful. Though we jammed in the late 80s, we played this kind of stuff, and worshipped the films and music of the Hashbury scene like it was our own bountiful bonkers Bethlehem (i.e. we were Deadheads). For me, more than anyone else in 'my tribe,' this movie captured our tribe's dynamics to a perfect tee, to the point it was almost scary.
There's the Dean Stockwell (top) pseudo-shaman (that was totally me), carrying STP-laced fruit punch around like its just another drink and arguing with the band's smarmy lead singer and guitarist, Stony (Jack Nicholson --that was Dave), while simultaneously play-stealing his girl, Susan Strasberg (that was Beth); and her and I becoming partners in crime, talking about how annoying he could be while rummaging his drawers in search of secret stashes. Hippy Jeff the sculptor who lived in our attic is here played by Bruce Dern; Max by Adam Roarke. I could go down matching the cast but you probably would just skip over it. (Or go here), but! Ask yourself why the similarity, only one reason - acid makes you tarot-myth tribal, it assigns you a role in your group - the clown, the king, the shaman/wizard, princess, Morganna, Lancelot, it's all there waiting to play out amongst your friends! It's in your DNA... the man, the system, authority can't burn that out of you. They try, but not even you can reach those alchemical depths without a little boost from our machine elf friends behind the curtain, so trip them well!
Point is: PSYCH-OUT strikes a rare and right note of genuine people engaging in cautious lysergic idealism, like HAIR: the psychedelic love bead and budding branch pull focus magic of Lazlo Kovacs making deaf mute tourist Susan Strasberg into a love child overnight, and we're contact high and beside her all the way. But then the film also shows the dirty morning after, when one tin soldier rides away without doing his share of the dishes, and instead of trying to pick the lice off himself, just names them ("that's Manny").
The sad part is: once post-Vietnam disillusionment got rid of patriotism, countercultural "freedom" became the ad hoc refuge of a scoundrel, and then the C.H.U.Ds came--sleazy midwestern meth addicts, grabbing girls and dragging them into alleys yelling "gimme some a dat free love I done read about!"--and then you may as well move to Los Angeles. The dream is over.
At the end, when Stockwell is dying he says "I hope this next trip is a good one!" It was, man it was WOODSTOCK! And it wasn't man, it was GIMME SHELTER, and yet we rode on, man, until the times they are a changing back. Now take him away for re-grooving!
It's funny because it's terrifying. It's terrifying because it's true.
In short, this film is the shit - a personal favorite. Alas, the MGM DVD seems to missing a reel, though maybe I was, you know, out of it, and just remember a rell that's not there. I would love to do a 'head's cut' one day and fix up some of the hallucinations, to add a giant close-up of that burning tin of Susan Strasberg's stuff as a child, which her evil mom threw in the furnace --and which led to her psychological deafness -- a condition which it's also implied is cured by her STP-fueled breakthrough, that she can now hear again after this mind-shredding return to the ground zero of her individuating trauma. Or to have her look in the mirror and see her face melting to reveal her taunting evil mother, that kind of shit - would have been awesome. But what we got, it's still pretty fucking great.
And no squares anywhere in the film, man, at least not outside the bus.

Indigenous Chocolatiers: The Kuna People
Both Mayan and Aztec cultures revered cacao as a gift from the gods, consuming it ritualistically, attributing strength and vigor to its ingestion. Modern science has proven their observations to be correct, revealing cocoa's stimulating properties and beneficial effects on brain and circulatory health. One of the most touted confirmations of cacao as a health food comes from a group of studies on the Kuna people, an indigenous culture of Central American Indians in Panama. Like the Mayans and the Aztecs, the Kuna have long been sipping on several different variations of a cacao based beverage, which they call Siagwa.
Growing Ethically: A Look at Maya Mountain Cacao
We created Raaka to make chocolate that reflects the human element in every bar. Chocolate, a source of joy for many in the West, is often the product of great injustice throughout the developing world. The chocolate industry has historically exploited the two most crucial and meaningful foundations of its business: the farmers and the land. In the past decade, several major chocolate producers have been linked to child labor and poor wages, while the monoculture model of the cacao farm has been responsible for rampant deforestation.
Maya Mountain Cacao is helping to change the industry.
First Nibs - July!
It's summer, so this month's limited edition bars are all about trying to capture nostalgic summer flavors in chocolate form. Campfires, grilling, ripe berries; what's not to love about summertime? Read more about these delicious bars here!
Celebrate summer with Raaka S'mores!
It's officially summer in the Northern Hemisphere, and everyone is looking for ways to stay cool and fresh while enjoying the sunshine. Since cacao has a melting point of around 95 F (36 C), and softens in the mid to upper 80's, the summer heat presents some challenges to our daily nibbles. Why not compromise with the heat and enjoy the unique bliss of melting chocolate in the form of a S'more?
S'more's are a uniquely American tradition, synonymous with summer campfires and weekend getaways. The S'more was discovered in 1927, when it first appeared in the publication of Tramping and Trailing with The Girl Scouts. The genius behind this idea, of melting rich chocolate with gooey marshmallows between the honeyed crusts of two graham crackers, remains unknown.
But we do know it sure tastes good with Raaka Chocolate. Read on for a recipe!

I wonder if Naruto will really have that kind of control and power though? He's more of a rushing in and breaking them guy than someone that stands back and starts making tornadoes or doing something sneaky.
I am pretty sure that electrons transfer from atom to atom of whatever might be in the air such as oxygen and gases, creating lightning. But if Naruto can really control the air then he could shift the air in whatever direction he wants, and throw the electricity in another direction or maybe even back at Sasuke.

But as I spoke to Daniel, a third grader in Texas whose class was working on a Semester of Service project, I realized that his heart, his compassion, and his conviction weren't qualities easily measured by a test. His empathy and worldview are exceptionally well-developed, and he's already more engaged in his community than many adults. The lessons he's learned through carefully investigating childhood hunger will stay with him, and his depth of understanding will grow as he does.

An exhibition showcasing Nepal as the ideal destination for adventurous holidaymakers has won an award.
Nepal Tourism Board (NTB) came first for having the best exhibit at the Adventure Travel Expo, which was held in Melbourne, Australia recently. The organisation was praised for its artistic design and the way its stand demonstrated the appeal of Nepal as a location for active travellers.
Sushil Ghimire, chairman of NTB and secretary at the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation, said the government and Nepal was working with the NTB to promote the nation's culture and tourism to attract international visitors.
The NTB's winning exhibit showcased the Great Himalayan Trail as a tourist attraction. The trail is the world's longest high altitude trekking trail at 1,700 km long. It takes about 150 days to walk the entire distance from Taplejung in the east to Darchula in the west.
And a visit to Australia from the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation focused on working towards an agreement to launch direct flights between Nepal and Australia.

NY Red Bulls Open New Stadium With 3-1 Win Over Santos
Everything went the Red Bulls' way on Saturday. The weather was perfect. The team's impressive and brand new soccer-only stadium in Harrison, New Jersey, was filled to capacity. And in a friendly that opened the new stadium, the home team beat Santos, the legendary club from Brazil, 3-1.
That's not all. Earlier in the day, thanks to an ongoing labor dispute, no one was even sure there would be a Major League Soccer season this year. And with the World Cup less than three months away, that possibility seemed a bad omen for the state of soccer in America. But MLS owners and players signed an agreement at long last just five hours before kickoff, avoiding a players' strike that might have dealt a death blow to the league and made Red Bull Arena look like a really bad use of $200 million.
With the strike averted, the stadium gleaming, and a U.S. team defeating one from Brazil, the future of American soccer was suddenly looking up.

To those who have a candle/hot drink warmer, do you remove the wick & toss it when the candle liquifies?
Or do you leave the wick in for lighting the candle later? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have one of those candle warmers. I don't like it. At any rate, I leave the wicks in mine. The wicks may float out of place a little, but since I am not going to burn the candle anyway, it doesn't make a difference. Susan |
I leave the wicks in the candles when on the warmer. Another thing to put on those warmers are called Aroma Crystals or Smelly Jellies. They have no wicks and are a neat air freshner. :) |

Rita~'s Note:
This process is so very easy. No peeling! Take a look! Squash is great for pureeing, roasting and baking. Once cooked and pureed, it can be used in soups, main dishes, vegetable side dishes, even breads, muffins, custards and pies. The skin has many nutrients so go ahead and use it. Or peel and discard. But you will never know it's in the puree. Dress any cooked winter squash with butter and herbs, a cream sauce, cheese sauce, maple syrup, candied ginger, spices and or nuts.
My Private Note

text: The first published case on Wisconsin's (relatively) new rule on expert opinion testimony has emerged at long last. In 2011 the legislature replaced Wisconsin's decade's-old approach with the federal "Daubert rule," a rule rejected by state appellate courts on several occasions. The old rule left disagreements among experts mostly to the trier of fact, provided the witnesses had suitable specialized knowledge that could assist in fact finding. The current Daubert rule unctuously anoints trial judges as "gatekeepers" responsible for ensuring that only "reliable" expert opinions are put before juries. Many critics, me included, thought the old rule served the same purpose quite well. In State v. Giese, 2014 WI App 92, the court of appeals wisely signals that the new rule is mostly compatible with the older approach. Read more »

I was just given this cute, little celeste fig. No instructions came for planting. I have a general idea, but is there anything special I need to do for a fig? Thanks so much! I am so excited!! -Sherri |
Follow-Up Postings:
First that is a nice tree and the Celeste is a great cultivar. I downloaded your photo and flipped it to gain an appreciation of the plant. It appears it is in a peat moss or manure pot. I recommend stripping the pot away but using the material in a compost pile or you can break it up and put it in the pot or hole you transplant the Celeste in. Ideally you should plant the tree in the ground that gets plenty of sun since you live in zone 7b. Please remember figs are different then other trees and can be planted deeper then the current crown. The deeper you plant it the more likely it will survive the worst mother nature can throw at you. If you don't want or can't plant the tree in the ground I recommend potting up the plant in Dr Al Tapla's soil mixture. It is what I use for my fig trees. |
- Posted by ediblelandscaping.sc 7b-8 (My Page) on Mon, Jun 10, 13 at 2:48
Johnsvmf is right but may I just add that figs hate standing water so please pick a spot with good drainage. Fig trees grow great against a house or building but celeste is so hardy it can be planted in a field in 7b without issues so you might want to save those spots for a less hardy variety. We all started with 1 fig tree, now we all have several. it's called fig fever and you may be susceptible to it too so try to save the protected sites for more excotic varities later down the road like black mission, peters honey, green ischia, ect all commercially available but rated zone 8 and up. they will grow in zone 7a unprotected if grown against a structure that absorbs heat. There are also plenty of fig varieties that are not commercially available but do great in your zone. check ebay for rarer plants, or ask around for cuttings and propagate your own. Good luck, and if you feel like you're getting fig fever there only 1 thing for it, take 2 cuttings and pot them in the morning:) |

Bryndon Manzer, a former OSU guard (1992-94) will broadcast his first Bedlam men's basketball game Saturday, working with play-by-play announcer Dave Armstrong on the Big 12 Network (including KOCB-34). Manzer, 41, who also is a full-time investment adviser, discussed the game:
Former OSU guard Bryndon Manzer exited about calling his first Bedlam game
Are you excited about calling your first Bedlam game?
Absolutely, being from Oklahoma, having played in it and having close relationships at both schools. The fact that the game is the most relevant it's been in several years with what's on the line makes it even more interesting.
What has accounted for OSU's recent winning streak?
First of all, Marcus Smart has been everything to this basketball team. To be so young and have the skill set and ability, but I think his leadership — the kind of winning culture — has rubbed off on his teammates. They play with a lot of confidence because of him. He and Markel Brown right now are playing like the best backcourt in the league, and other guys are coming around as well.
How will OU overcome the loss of point guard Buddy Hield to a foot injury?

Fantasia Barrino's 'American Idol' Sequin Catsuit: Yay or Nay? (PHOTOS/POLL)
Although Phillip Phillips took home the title of American Idol on Wednesday's season 11 finale, season 3 winner Fantasia Barrino certainly got people talking when she hit the stage in a skin-tight, sequin catsuit.
Channeling Jennifer Lopez à la her 2011 American Music Awards performance, Fantasia, 27, showed off her curves in a black bodysuit as she covered Elton John's "Take Me To the Pilot" with this season's second place runner-up, Joshua Ledet.
While we're all for celebs taking fashion risks, we're unsure if Fantasia's figure-hugging garb was the right choice for the "I Believe" songstress. Did Fantasia rock this look?
Click through the gallery for a closer look, then tell us what you think of her saucy ensemble in the poll!
For more catsuit action, check out her American Idol performance in the video below.

Summary: This book argues for the integration of a biosocial perspective into contemporary explanations of criminality. It shows how existing theories can be better understood, expanded and revised by the incorporation of relevant methodological, conceptual and theoretical insights from the biological sciences. The first four chapters explain why criminology needs biology and describe the three major biosocial perspectives of human behavior (evolutionary psychology, behavior ...show moregenetics and the neurosciences). The remainder of the book goes on to evaluate the propositions of traditionally dominant sociological theories, reflecting on how biosocial concepts and principles might be embraced and utilized. In-depth coverage is given to the differential association/social learning tradition, the human ecology tradition, and critical and feminist theories. The final chapter summarizes the lessons of the book and offers a discussion of ethical concerns.

Our programmers dedicate countless hours of their lives for the enhancement of Miami International Film Festival. Meet those who bring incredible films from around the globe to Miami.

What makes a film great for you?
I look for two things when I watch a film: idea and emotions. I always admired filmmakers that came up with the greatest of concepts to surprise the moviegoer sending them into what I call a responsive mental frenzy. A great example of this feeling would be PRIMER by Shane Carruth or Darren Aronofsky's PI. It is in the cinema that I find solace, a film like CENTRAL STATION by Walter Salles was able to grab my heart and turn it upside down. It is still one of my favorite films and one of the best dramas I have ever seen.
If you weren't doing this, what would you be doing?
I would be a TV sportscaster. I have been on a consistent diet of Sports and Films for quite a while now, but don't ask me about TV Shows, the last one I watched and followed was the X FILES.
After seeing what film did you realize you loved cinema?
To me this is a trick question… I would have to divide my experiences into two categories: pop films and imaginative films. Besides the STAR WARS Saga, there were two films that got my attention growing up: STREETS OF FIRE by Walter Hill starring Michael Paré and Diane Lane (Willem Dafoe was awesome in it as well) and PURPLE RAIN by Albert Magnoli starring the incomparable Prince. Both films had common threads, they were based around pop music and they both had great soundtracks that I still listen to this day. I credit those films for helping me to understand style and cultural relativism. I watched POISON by Todd Haynes in the early 90s and it still remains one of the most unique films I have ever seen. My mind was blown, BOOM! (every time I go back and watch that film the same thing happens: mind blown, BOOM!). Around that time I watched Richard Linklater's SLACKER and JACOB'S LADDER by Adrian Lyne starring Tim Robbins. Also a couple of Pedro Almodovár films that were big back then, TIE ME UP, TIE ME DOWN and HIGH HEELS starring Victoria Abril, Marisa Paredes and Miguel Bosé, and THE CRYING GAME by Neil Jordan. I still remember thinking about the endless possibilities of Cinema and how different films have a kind of power over the viewer. I had no idea what was going to come next… and that search is still ongoing.

What makes a film great for you?
Stories that cerebrally, visually and emotionally stay with me long after the final credits have rolled. I want to have a reaction. I want to be provoked, I want to laugh, cry, deeply connect with the characters or subjects, and be surprised by the outcome.
If you weren't doing this, what would you be doing?
Working for another niche market film festival!
What film sparked your love for cinema?
I'm drawn to films where women anchor the storyline. "The Wizard of Oz" has been such an integral part of my life for as long as I can remember, it was perennially showcased by the BBC at Christmas! Zhang Yimou's "Raise the Red Lantern" and Deepa Mehta's "Fire", provided glimpses of impossible realities in cities and cultures far from my own, underlining the power of cinema to move and emotionally resonate deep within your soul.

I have been using this product for about 2 months now and I absolutely love it. I was so nervous to try a well formulated BHA product because I was afraid I would "purge" or that it would irritate my skin. I did a lot of research on BHA's and in particular PC's BHA's. This one seemed like it would cause the least irritation and it's true! I have had no increased redness, any dryness, flaking, etc. It's very gentle on the skin. I use it with some cotton rounds I get at Target. I also just use this once daily, at night after I wash my face. I wait about 30-60 seconds for it to sink in a little and then apply my moisturizer. I do go through this very fast though, about 4 weeks, which sucks since I only use it once a day. However, it's worth it to me now. This has really kept my breakouts at bay. I would say this is great for someone who has more mild to slightly moderate breakouts. It helps with my blackheads, comedones, and whiteheads mainly. I haven't noticed a significant improvement in a few of my past hyperpigmentation marks that were before I used used this, but it's understandable. But any new pimples I have since had, the hyperpigmentation is very light and not as dark as it used to be, probably because I used to use an acne product with alcohol in it (yikes!).
I did not experience any "purging" but after about 3-4 weeks I noticed it brought a couple of closed comedones I had around on my face from something else I used to the surface, which I was actually thankful for. I will seriously never use a facial scrub again. My skin is so sensitive that even the most gentle scrubs would cause irritation and increased breakouts. This is a miracle product for me. If you're just starting out to BHA's this is a great one to start with and then if you feel it doesn't work out for you, I would say you could try a different formulation of PC's BHA. Since this one is so gentle, it may take 1-2 months to see full results. It is so gentle I believe because the pH is a little higher than the other BHA's that some people claim are irritating because the pH is lower. This one according to the PC's website pH range is about 3.5-3.9. It doesn't penetrate the pore as fast as one that may be like 3.2 (I'm assuming).
This is the only PC product I have tried and I am absolutely in love. I just received my third bottle of this stuff! Also, if this is anyone's first purchase, I have a referral link where you can get $10 off your first purchase. (http://goo.gl/WybMSa) I wish I would have known about that before because I paid full price. They always seem to have free shipping and coupon codes so look out for those too!

I've been using this product twice a day for a week now and I'm covered in little red bumps and little whiteheads everywhere. Within 24hrs of starting this product, my face began erupting. I'm debating whether to continue on for another week with the hope that this is just the purging process, but I'm thinking that I'm allergic to 1 or more ingredients and should probably stop using it. What to do, what to do. This is the only product I'm currently using on my skin, so I know that this is the only one to blame. The weird thing is, my rosacea has calmed down a lot since starting this treatment. My pores have always gotten smaller and I haven't had any large breakouts either. But these dozens and dozens of little bumps look awful. If I feel brave enough to go another week like this, I'll update again.
I love PC products and this is one of them. I have been on Accutane before so I don't often get breakouts and I use her products to maintain my skin. Was originally using the 2% skin perfecting liquid exfoliant but found it to be too drying. I switched to this and definitely prefer this over the 2% liquid.
This one is very lightweight and watery. It sinks into the skin immediately upon application unlike the 2% liquid which remains as a film over my skin and I did not experience any dryness with this one. I love PC exfoliants, they are very well formulated and really do prevent pimples and clogged pores. When I do get pimples, they are small and rarely last more than 3 days.
If you find the 2% skin perfecting liquid to be too drying, I suggest this one, its more gentle but with the same effect. Afterall it also contains 2% BHA in a more gentle formula. Also this helps with redness, plus its cheaper than the liquid. Double bonus!
Does not irritate me. Haven't seen dramatic decrease in my long-term blackheads yet, but have noticed reduced break-outs.
The full-size packaging dispenser is good for finger tip application, but the travel-size releases too much product - messy and wasteful.
this product - omg YES! i have rosacea and it can get just really red and patchy sometimes and this has been absolutely fantastic. i put this on my skin at night and when i wake up in the morning my skin is calmed, clear and about 80% of my redness is gone!! it doesn't sting when you apply it and it has the texture and appearance of water that just sinks into the skin without leaving a sticky or shiny residue. this BHA product has salicylic acid which is a chemical that clears and prevents acne and i can safely say that in the 4 months i have used this product, i have only had 1 breakout since!
I HAVE THE DELUXE SAMPLE This product is ideal for oily skin. The last thing someone with oily skin wants is another lotions on their skin and this feels like water literally. My skin just soaked this up I didn't feel any oiliness or feel any shine.
My acne has been stubborn and hasn't gone away but this did do something-- the pimples flattened. The darkness is still there from the acne unfortanutely it only reduced a little but there's nothing to pick at.
The packaging needs some work too much can be poured out at once.
It comes with directions you can pour this on a cotton ball but the cotton may absorb more toner or leave flurry specks. I found using my hand helpful the liquid did drip through my fingers but it didn't happen very quick.
I've been using it daily for the last six months together with the 2% BHA Liquid - I use CLEAR for the day and the BHA Liquid for the night. Unlike the BHA Liquid, it absorbs very quickly, almost like water, and allows other products (serum, moisturiser, SPF) to be layered on top. I can't say that it has "transformed" my skin and I still get an occasional pimple/cystic acne but definitely less frequently than before I started using these two products.
This stuff gets the job done. It's really helping with my closed comedones and hormonal acne. I originally was using the Skin Perfecting 2% BHA liquid but I found it pretty drying. I've gotten the same results with this formula without the dryness, and it really does help reduce redness.

I've never had more than mild-moderate acne, but it has plagued me for 20 years and, other than when I was taking one specific oral contraceptive (that I can no longer take), I've never had completely clear skin.
I have tried other salicylic acid products in the past, but have never had any success with them and have done better with products containing benzoyl peroxide. However, after reading the rave reviews for this product, I decided to try it. I have been using it daily for about six months now. Initially I used it only in the morning, but after seeing improvement without any undesirable effects, added it to my evening routine as well. I have not experienced ANY dryness or irritation whatsoever, not even in the first few days of use. It has a water-like texture and feel, and I have no issues applying makeup afterward.
My skin is CRYSTAL clear. Not only have I had just ONE pimple in the last two months, all of the congestion is gone too! I have no more blackheads and no more of those flesh-colored bumps! My skin is even toned and smooth, and looks better than it has EVER looked, by far.
Right around the time I began using this, I completely overhauled my skincare routine (to include several other PC products), so I can't say this product is entirely responsible, but it is certainly contributing. I will definitely repurchase!
In case anyone is interested, here is the regimen I've had tremendous (and sustained) success with:
Garden of Wisdom Jen's Green Tea & Shea cleanser (gentle version)
PC Clear Regular Strength 2% SA Anti-Redness Exfoliator
Avene Triacneal cream
Elta MD Clear SPF 46
Garden of Wisdom Jen's Green Tea & Shea cleanser (gentle version)
PC Clear Regular Strength 2% SA Anti-Redness Exfoliator
PC Clear 2.5% BP
Acne.org 10% AHA lotion
PC Moisture Boost Cream

I have been using this toner for a over a month now. I have been using it with a cotton ball, because that is always how I have used toners in the past. However, this is my first expensive toner, and I'm going to get cotton pads tomorrow, because they soak up less product and I have started to notice that my product is going out very quickly. I am also going to try putting it in my hands and patting it on my face to use less of it that way as well!
But anyway, let's talk results! I start out by cleansing my face with BASIS brand cleanser. (By the way, a very very good face wash). after toning with Paula's Choice moisturizing toner which removes the rest of my makeup that cleansing did not get (I wear a lot of makeup), I then use this product all over my face. The first thing I noticed about this really surprised me. Even after cleansing and toning, this Clear BHA STILL removed a little bit more excess dirt! Before I would just cleanse and moisturize. I now know that there is A LOT of excess dirt that needs to go.
I have combination acne prone skin. With no foundation and concealer on my face, there are some red spots mostly here and there around my chin and mouth. Using this morning and night has noticeable blurred these spots, and has Definitely prevented new ones from forming.
It is very very gentle for me and a great addition to my skincare routine. I would recommend it to anyone because I think it works great for many different skin types. I have been very happy with the results!
Also, I will say that it is best to use it every single day for a few weeks and then you will definitely notice a difference.
The only reason I didn't give it a full perfect rating is because the bottle is surprisingly small for the price you pay

By Intern Ariana in Arts on Jul 26, 2012
BUST's current cover girl Tavi Gevinson really has come into her own. The sixteen year old has gone from an adolescent fashion blogger to a mature pop culture curator (she started ROOKIE online magazine, soon to be a book this fall) in no time flat. Tavi hit the last stop on the Rookie Road Trip this Sunday, bringing her personal brand of magic to the City of Angeles. To celebrate the end of the Tavi Train, the teenage blogger held the Strange Magic art show at LA's Space 15 Twenty along with her friend and visual artist Petra Collins. The show was inspired by a teen girl's bedroom- something Tavi definitely knows a lot about. It featured a queen-sized bed, desks, some old records, glitter and even a very graffitied tree house. Sounds like mucho fun.
One attendee described the show as the cleaned out closet of a 16-year-old Courtney Love, according to the Urban Outfitter's blog. With tons of eccentric memorabilia, merchandise, photos and knick-knacks, the show was a must-see for anyone in the LA area, including her celebrity supporters. Tavi had her share of famous fans since Style Rookie set the blogosphere on fire. Agyness Deyn, Miranda July and Jonny Makeup were all in attendance at Strange Magic.
If you missed the opening party, worry not! Our August/September cover girl has lots more fun in store.

"First you buy Wilhelm or Derricksburg Forge and minute later you find out you are not able to use them."
- We already discussed it. Better have cards restricted or even banned than force them to quit the game.
Maybe "Better than (…)", but still unpleasant.
Virgo said:
"I think that generally speaking Empire strenght is the potential ablility to control both units and supports (i.e. Osterknacht Elite, Rodrik Raiders + nasty tactics allowing them show up again and again), most other decks lack this. Add some support control possibilities to Dark Elves or some unit control chance to Orcs or Dwarves and Empire would be "stopped"."
It is already stopped. Restrictions for Forge, Rodrik and Will fixed it. Making every faction good in every field would just create more pre-restrictions Empires…
I don't know if it is stopped, really, I still find it pretty hard to play against.
In my opinion Rodrik's as most valuable of restricted card (even though I miss Wilhelm and wasn't even able to actually use Forge, as I bought it a while before restricts… so please understand a little bit of frustration here.
Anyway, I still have both support and unit control in one deck, both partially in form of units (Osterknacht Elite + Rodrik Raiders), which can be placed in many roles - boosts my own economy, defend or attack, while destroying effectively opponents eco in the same time. I would call it quite superior flexibility.
Virgo said:
"When I play hp-reducing Dark Elves, all support cards hurts me badly, as only thing I can control are units,"
- Burn It Down/Withering Hex?
Yeah, but you will agree, that Rodrik's is SO much better option than Burn it Down, don't you? Besides, in Empire deck you can have both, if you really want, but even more funny - with Empire tactics and units controls (Osterknacht Elite again for example, or Call for Reserves… or Called Back, or…) you can use one Rodrik a few times, other factions won't do this with Burn it Down, not to mention developments needed. A side note is that tactics like Call for Reserves or Mastering the spell are also very flexible and could be used in many, many different situations…
Withering Hex - I put this card into category: "only because I don't have anything better". Unfortunately, not all supports would be pain because of their hammers only, a lot of them are dangerous just because they exists.
Of course I don't say that Empire is auto-winner or anything like that, however I do say the overall flexibility, multitude of options, gives this faction upper hand, advantage. Maybe slight, but still SOME advantage.
P.S. By the way, last evening I was kicked a few times by friend playing my Empire against newly assembled DarkElf/Necromancy deck I wanted to check, as well as a few other decks I assembled to try them in fight, some of them built for fun, some more "serious". Damn, and this guy played only for his third or fourth time! Shame… :>
