Kitty Goes to the Dogs
Hello, Kitty:
I am a 51-year-old housewife; my husband is the same age and I love him to death. But we rarely have sex. We just recently adopted a Japanese Akita from friends who were moving out of state, and he's really a handful. He's completely hyperactive and shows his affection by grabbing hold of my leg and well, you know. He has even done this to hubby and houseguests. My husband says it's because the dog is male and is trying to mate but has no outlet. He added that given the chance, the dog would have sexual intercourse with me too. He doesn't even think it's a problem.
I have done Internet searches on this subject and found images of women with dogs in various sex acts. But I don't know which way to go from here. I do miss having an active sex life. Could our new pet provide what I am missing? And safely?
Juana Puppyluv
Hey, Juana:
Could your horny new housemate give you what you're missing? Yes. Safely? Sure, if you don't mind riding a dude with teeth that can crunch through a chicken bone and a lovemaking style best described as a furry blitzkrieg.
I'm not one to judge who or what you should allow to fill the space between your legs, Juana, and you should know I've had experience only with mongrels of the human kind. The mere thought of a mutt voraciously licking my face or humping at the speed of light is a turnoff. The drooling, shitting all over the place, ball-licking — all personal deal breakers for dude or dog.
I also can't ignore the ethical issues behind bestiality, nor will I discuss them since you didn't ask, "Should?" You asked, "Could?" And the answer is yes. According to an expert I consulted — let's call her "The Vet" — your dog could and would have sex with you, but you need to let him know your vajayjay is open and ready for the taking. The Vet suggests spreading a bit of honey on your privates and letting the tail-wagger do what comes naturally. As far as actual penetration, Fido will know exactly what to do and how to do it. The Vet recommends tying socks on the pooch's paws to protect your skin from the inevitable clawing. The good news is that if you do shag the dog, you can't get preggo. So — whew — no pitter-patter of little mog feet to worry about.
More good news is that bestiality is still fair game in many states including Florida, so while it's illegal to own a pit bull in Miami-Dade County, you can fuck a shih tzu till the cats come home. Check out youtube.com/magiccitykitty for video of The Vet's full letter. Plenty of details, no reenactments. Meow.

Detailed Description:
Study Groups:
If you agree to take part in this study, and you are among the first 40 participants, you will have an equal chance of being in either group. If you enroll after that, you will have a higher chance (51%-100%) of being assigned to the group that had better results.
- If you are in Group 1, you will receive granisetron by patch.
- If you are in Group 2, you will receive ondansetron by mouth.
Study Drug Administration:
If you are in Group 1, you will receive ondansetron by vein at your first visit only, which is standard of care. Then, you will receive cisplatin by vein over about 1 hour as part of the chemoradiation. A granisetron patch will then be placed on your skin before the chemotherapy . The patch will be replaced every 7 days before the chemotherapy.
If you are in Group 2, you will receive ondansetron by vein before cisplatin. Then, you will receive cisplatin by vein over about 1 hour. Then you will take ondansetron by mouth with a cup of water (8 ounces) 3 times a day for 3 days. Ondansetron is a tablet that you can take with or without food and is best taken at least 30 minutes before eating.
Both groups will be given a study drug diary to record the times that you take the study drugs. You will also record any nausea or vomiting that you may have. You should bring the diary to each study visit. You should also bring your study drug bottles/packages to each study visit.
Study Visits:
The visits for this study will be at the same time as your chemoradiation therapy visits over 5 weeks.
You will complete 3 questionnaires at your study visits and then again 1 week after the last chemotherapy. The last questionnaires will be completed by phone. The questionnaires ask about how easy or difficult it is to use your assigned study drug, your level of nausea and vomiting, and your quality of life. It should take about 5 minutes to complete these questionnaires each time.
Length of Treatment:
You may continue using the study drug up to 5 weeks during your chemoradiation treatment. You will no longer be able to take the study drug if the disease gets worse, if intolerable side effects occur, or if you are unable to follow study directions.
Your participation on the study will be over when you have completed 5 weeks of chemoradiation treatments.
This is an investigational study. Both granisetron and ondansetron are FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of nausea and vomiting. It is investigational to compare these drugs administered in different ways.
Up to 150 patients will take part in this study. Up to 138 participants will take part at MD Anderson. Up to 12 will be enrolled at the Harris Health System.

1932-1941 | Japan enjoys strong economic growth |
Reflation and competitive devaluation stimulate production and exports with the
result that Japan recovers rapidly form the world slump of the 1930s and is
able to devote increasing resources to rearmament.
p 586 |
1935 - c.1970 | Continuous moderate inflation in Britain |
The general level of prices rises every year but at a moderate rate.
p 395-396 |
1939-1945 | The Second World War |
Keynesian policies are successfully put to the test as the British government
borrows larger sums than ever before at lower interest rates than in the First
World War and other wars. From being a large creditor to, mainly poorer,
Commonwealth countries Britain becomes a large debtor.
p 389-391,605 The US national debt, which was only $16 billion in 1930, reaches a peak of $269 billion in 1946 but this borrowing is also made at very low interest rates. Whereas the economies of most European countries are devasted the US gross national product rises substantially.p 515-516 Revenue raised from taxation (48% of government expenditure) and the resources of the occupied countries, together with a compulsory price freeze, enable the German authorities to suppress inflation until near the war's end.p 575 In Japan the financial, administrative and industrial powers of the Zaibatsu are strengthened as they form the economic heart of the military machine.p 587 |

Following the Liberation in August 1944 economic controls are lifted
step-by-step, releasing previously suppressed inflation.
p 563-564 |
1944-1946 | Hungary suffers from the world's worst ever hyperinflation |
Hungary's monetary system destroys itself as note issues increase from 12,000
million until at its maximum it comes to a figure containing 27 digits. By July
1946 the 1931 gold pengo is worth 130 trillion paper pengos.
p 19,397 |
1945-1955 | Banking boom and crash in Nigeria |
Between 1945 and 1948 145 banks are registered followed by a similar number in
the next 4 years. However their growth is unregulated and owing to
inexperience, incompetence, nepotism and corruption by 1955 all but 3
indigenous banks have failed.
p 611,612 |
1945-1948 | Germany suffers from hyperinflation |
Owing to the devastation of the war Germany experiences hyperinflation for the
second time in a generation. In the official markets ration cards and permits
are more important than currency while on the black market cigarettes, soap,
tinned beef and chocolate serve as currency.
p 443,576 |
1945-1948 | Anti-monopoly and decentralization laws affect Japanese banks |
The American occupying forces pass laws to break up the Zaibatsu by separating
their banking activities from their industrial bases. They also close down a
number of the special banks, such as the Yokohama Specie Bank, and insist on
the separation of commercial and investment banking.

war-torn Europe. The programme goes ahead the following year. West Germany is
later included among the recipients.

which also inspired by the agreement, holds its first meeting.
p 517-518 |

p 624 |
1949 | Britain devalues and starts an international realignment of exchange rates |
Britain devalues the pound from $4.30 to $2.80 i.e. by about 30% against the

Commonwealth countries and stimulates moves towards financial and political
independence in the remaining colonies.
p 393,598,606 |
1949 | Manillas withdrawn from circulation in Britain's west African colonies |

they are officially withdrawn in 1949.
p 46,600 |
1949 | Economic reforms in Japan |
The US abandons the idea of exacting war reparations and instead supplies aid
to Japan, like that given to Europe under the Marshall plan. At the same time
rationing is abolished, runaway inflation brought under control, the budget
balanced, and a single exchange rate for the yen, at 360 to the dollar,

plan for doubling the average income in a decade. In the 1960s growth is even
higher, averaging 10.7% annually.
p 589 |
1950-1958 | The European Payments Union |
This is set up by the Organization for European Economic Co-operation. The 15

control the monetary system by varying bank rate. However, when the policy is
used again in the 1950s it is much less successful.
p 394,399 |
1951 | British colonies' sterling balances exceed £1,000 million |
Whereas the independent Commonwealth countries had managed to reduce their
sterling balances those of the colonies are still increasing with the result
that the British economy is benefiting at the expense of poorer countries.
p 606 |
1951 | Canada repeals law against potlatches |

Worst smelling soap? No, it actually smells like s-o-a-p is supposed to. If you want pretty smells, then get a body wash. This soap is perfect for normal, unaffected, I-want-to-just-get-it-clean-and-know-it's-clean-skin. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I bought it when we had babies and we didn't want anything harsh on their skin - just pure soap - and Ivory fit the bill. It's served millions of people well for years, it's tried and true and it works. I've used it for twenty years and I love it. I always moisturize after my shower in the winter, so I'm fine. It always leaves me feeling squeaky clean. I don't feel like being a guinea pig trying to find which cleanser doesn't break me out or cause problems. This works. I can use it on my sensitive skin face, and it works a zillion times better on me than any facial cleansers I have used in the last three months. My face has a rash from trying to get away from using soap and trying facial cleansers, so what's the point? I think I'll stick with tried and true. You can keep the expensive facial cleansers for the guinea pigs!

I love this soap.
I use it to wash my body and face.
I shower one to two times per day, using this soap with a sponge.
On my face I use my Clarisonic.
This soap is cleansing without stripping my skin.
I have normal to oily skin, so I do not find it drying or irritating.
If you have low-maintenance skin, use this soap!

I used this as a hand wash to test it out before using on my body. It completely dried out and chapped my hands! If it can't even handle my hands it definitely wont go near my body.

I had been using Aveeno liquid Oatmeal body wash, until I found a generic version at Family Dollar for about 1/4 th of the price of Aveeno. It was great for my sensitive and allergic skin, but it had no scent, came out of the bottle in strange little round balls, which then dropped to the shower floor quickly. Once you learned how to use it, it worked great, but with no scent it was rather boring. I spent the night at a friend's house and forgot my oatmeal soap, so I was forced to use the regular Ivory body wash, no scent. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it did not bother my skin at all, and I felt moisturized and clean. So I go to the store to buy my own bottle, and there is also Ivory with Lavender. I love all things lavender, but was afraid to buy it in case the scent bothered me. Well, I took a chance and bought it anyway, and I LOVE this stuff! My HG of bodywashes. Smells divine, cleans and moisturizes, and rinses clean. I can't guarantee it won't irritate anyone else's sensitive skin, but I think I must have the most sensitive skin EVER and it never bothers mine! PS Just with they made it in travel sizes. The bottle is huge so I buy the little refillable plastic travel bottles and fill those.

I suffer from eczema on my body and this wonderful soap made it go away. I can't believe it. I always avoided it because I had heard it was drying and also because it reminded me of my elementary school days. But for some random reason one day I bought some and tried it in the shower. It did not dry out my skin, and I did not even have to use lotion afterwards. After about five days of using this soap, I noticed that the eczema on my lower back and in the crevices of my elbows were gone. Just gone. This soap is dirt cheap and so you can feel free to use as much of it as you want. I'm clean as a whistle, smell like a rose, my skin is soft and eczema free!

I use this as a facewash ( I know, I know soap is supposed to be terrible for you facial skin...) and this is the only product that keeps my skin clear and healthy looking. I have very oily skin that tends to be acne prone and Ivory is the only product that I keep coming back to, if I try something else I usually break out. This gets all of my makeup off and leaves my skin looking great. Just make sure to use a moisturizer after!

I also disliked Ivory when I was a kid, idk what it is...the smell? Anyways, just about a month ago, my mom picked it up for me (although I asked her to pick up Dove from Walmart). She claimed it was a way better deal. So, I used it & never looked back. I have super sensitive skin on my body & face. My face is also very acne prone. Ivory done cleared up my face and my body has shown no signs of sensitivity to it. This is a plus for my entire household, since 2 of my 3 kids also has this sensitive skin issue. I love how light the scent is, It does make my skin feel a little "taut" after a shower, so I apply my body& face lotion immediately after bathing. The wrapper on the bar is a little odd. The wax like paper starts to stick on the soap. I think the could fix this by packaging the soap in a box vs. paper wrap. Have & will buy again!

Though I am a skin care junkie and tend to try many different products-this really has surprised me! I likey! I still have slightly acne prone areas and dry combo skin-yes they never say to use soap on your face but honestly this is great and effective-it literally helps my acne disappear. Esp in summer when you get those little sweat pimple things on your forehead-this totally helps get rid of those! I just went to derm and she recommened LRP and I use the moisturizer but at night I use the Ivory soap and it really takes everything off, makeup, sweat oil-yes you get a taut feeling but its nothing moisturizer cant fix-if your skin is acne prone,give this a try! Its literally like $1.00 so its not a huge investment! Who would have thought??
Age: 30-35
Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Cool

I usually use Dove, but the last time I bought soap I decided to go with Ivory (with aloe) because it was in sale and massively cheaper. I have been very pleased. The smell is faint but pleasant, and I have not found it too drying. I do use cold cream on my face and tissue it off before using Ivory on my face, but the Ivory is really working for me.

Racer X is an American heavy metal band formed in 1985 in Los Angeles, California. The group has gone through numerous lineup changes, including a hiatus, with founders guitarist Paul Gilbert and bassist Juan Alderete being the sole constant members.
Guitarist Paul Gilbert first gained notoriety when he was featured in Mike Varney's Spotlight Column in the February 1983 issue of Guitar Player magazine.[1][2][3] Gilbert was 16 years old and was living in Greensburg, Pennsylvania. He later moved to Los Angeles and enrolled at the Guitar Institute of Technology (GIT), part of the Musicians Institute.[1] After graduating from GIT, Gilbert was hired as an instructor and recorded the album "Trouble In The Streets" with Los Angeles metal band Black Sheep, released on Enigma Records in November 1985.[4] While at GIT, Gilbert met fellow student Juan Alderete.[1] Searching for a drummer, Alderete and Gilbert first turned to Scott Travis, who was living in Virginia at the time, but he turned down the offer due to his commitment to the band Hawk.[5] Travis was receiving a salary from Doug Marks, the band's lead guitarist, and would not turn down the income. Alderete and Gilbert instead sought the services of fellow student Harry Gschoesser.[1] After acquiring Gschoesser, Gilbert, with the help of Varney, recruited Jeff Martin of the Phoenix metal band Surgical Steel.[1] Martin, who still lived in Phoenix and could not regularly write songs with Racer X in Los Angeles, began writing lyrics immediately for demo tapes that Gilbert had sent him.[1] Recording for their first album began quickly. The band began the recording process in 1985, and Racer X's debut album Street Lethal was released on January 1, 1986 on Mike Varney's Shrapnel Records label.[6]
Popularity boost[edit]
With the release of Street Lethal, Paul Gilbert suddenly burst into the mainstream as one of the members of the Neoclassical genre, popularized by Randy Rhoads and Yngwie J. Malmsteen.[7][8] While Racer X was not playing neo-classical pieces as frequently as Rhoads or Malmsteen, Gilbert was often mentioned alongside Yngwie and Randy in many guitar and music magazines. Gilbert acknowledged his debt to Malmsteen on the Street Lethal album with the neoclassical instrumental "Y.R.O.". The title is an acronym for "Yngwie Rip Off".[9] He would repeat such a reference on a later song, "B.R.O.", which stands for "Bach Rip Off".[10]
Racer X was rapidly becoming a popular live act on the Sunset Strip.[11] Around this time, Gilbert secured an endorsement deal with Ibanez guitars, which continues to this day.[1][12][13] The song "Getaway" received limited airplay on Los Angeles' heavy metal radio station, KNAC.[11]
Lineup change[edit]
After the release of the first album, Gilbert was still teaching at GIT for a steady income. One of Gilbert's students, Bruce Bouillet, gained his attention. Gilbert asked him to join Racer X, and the two guitarists would soon work out synchronized harmony passages that would redefine Racer X's sound.[1] In 1986, Harry Gschoesser's visa expired, so he returned to his native country, Austria.[1] He was initially replaced with Todd "Vito" DeVito, who had played on Black Sheep's Trouble In The Streets LP alongside Gilbert, but was soon replaced by Scott Travis.[1] DeVito went on to become a drum technician for Mikkey Dee of Motörhead.
The band headed to Prairie Sun Studios in Cotati to record their second studio album. Second Heat was released in February 1987, and solidified Racer X's style of double-lead guitar solos using techniques such as fast alternate-picking, two-handed tapping, string skipping, and sweep picking. The album also has two tracks written by other artists. "Moonage Daydream" was a David Bowie cover, and "Heart of a Lion" was a Judas Priest song dropped from the Turbo album.[14] The song was a birthday gift by Rob Halford, who had befriended Jeff Martin in the band's early days. Halford later recorded the track with his band, Halford.[15]
While the Los Angeles music scene was at the peak for glam metal, Racer X were reaching the height of their popularity with their live shows. The band was selling out and packing their usual rotation of The Roxy Theatre, Troubadour, and the Country Club in Reseda, California.[1] The years of unsuccessfully searching for major label representation finally took its toll on the band, and the group's last gasp came with two nights of back-to-back live shows at the Country Club, which were recorded and released as Extreme Volume Live (1988) and Extreme Volume II Live (1992).[1] But even as Live Extreme, Vol. 1 was getting ready for release, the dismantling of the band was near. Billy Sheehan, bass player of the band Talas, approached Paul Gilbert about forming a new band; in mid 1989, the two formed the band Mr. Big.[1] Gilbert had mentally detached himself from Racer X during the final shows. The rest of the group, searching for an explanation to the lack of major label interest, focused their frustrations on Jeff Martin. Both Gilbert and Martin left the band on the same day. Juan Alderete, Bruce Bouillet, and Scott Travis initially brought in Guitar Spotlight player Chris Arvan in 1989 as a replacement and performed a few shows, including one with Oni Logan from Lynch Mob.[16] Soon, the members of the band went separate ways. Racer X's hiatus carried on well into the late 1990s.
After Gilbert left for Mr. Big, other members also went on to other projects. Jeff Martin formed a short-lived outfit named Bad Dog with drummer Todd DeVito and former War & Peace and future Fight and Steel Panther guitarist Russ Parrish; the latter had also been part of Electric Fence, a side project featuring Martin and Paul Gilbert. Martin eventually went on to replace Eric Singer in Jake E. Lee's band, Badlands.[1] After the demise of the final Racer X line-up, with former Roxanne vocalist Jamie Brown briefly taking over for Martin, Juan Alderete, Bruce Bouillet, and Scott Travis teamed up with former Angora vocalist John Corabi to form the band Black Cloud – which would later become The Scream.[16] The four played one show at the Troubadour before Travis received an offer from Judas Priest, who was looking to replace the recently departed Dave Holland. Jeff Martin, a friend of Judas Priest, relayed the message to Travis, who was ecstatic at the opportunity, and accepted the offer. Travis would go on to record several albums with Judas Priest, and remains a member of the band to this day.[17]
In 1992, Shrapnel Records released Live Extreme, Volume 2, which featured songs from the farewell Racer X concerts at the Country Club. Like the first live record, it included several previously unreleased songs, like "Poison Eyes" and "Give it to Me".[14] The release gave die-hard Racer X fans hope that new material was on the way, but nothing came to fruition. The one most notable track is Racer X's cover of KISS' "Detroit Rock City". Recording the song, Gilbert and Bouillet, wanting to make the song unique and fitting to their style, stood side by side and played the famous solo with their teeth.[16] One other KISS song was played the night before, "Cold Gin", but it never appeared on either of the first two live releases.
After departing Mr. Big in 1997 after the recording of the Hey Man album, Gilbert started a solo career releasing King of Clubs. Paul received a nasty email from a guy in Australia. The famous "Snakebyte" email. In the email he chastised Paul for the more pop-oriented music on his solo records and accused him of forgetting his shred metal roots. Paul was apparently inspired to record some insane heavy metal and decided to reform Racer X. Paul asked everyone if they wanted to record again...and they said yes, with the exception of Bruce Bouilett, who did not choose to return. In mid-1999, the band recorded the album Technical Difficulties. Technical Difficulties went gold in Japan,[1] and Racer X's new record label requested a follow-up. In late 2000, the band released what is recognized by many fans as their best album to date, Superheroes.[18] The album's packaging featured pictures of the band members dressed as superheroes. Gilbert became the Electric Bat, Martin became Motorman, Alderete became The X-tinguisher, and Travis became Cowboy Axe.[19] The record was mixed by former Racer X guitarist, Bruce Bouillet. In order to further capitalize on their new-found success in Japan, Universal Japan requested that the band record a live show for another live CD and DVD. On May 25, 2001, the band played their first live performance in thirteen years at the Whisky a Go Go in Los Angeles.[1] The show was recorded for both audio and video, and in 2002, both the CD and DVD were released under the name Snowball of Doom, which is a reference to fact the band is still "rolling along" after fifteen years, but was still unable to secure a major American record label contract.
Getting Heavier[edit]
In January 2002, in support of Superheroes and Snowball of Doom, Racer X toured Japan and Taiwan. The band performed these shows in their Superheroes costumes. For the final show, in Yokohama, the performance was hastily recorded in two tracks on the sound board, and this was later released as Snowball of Doom 2.
Gilbert returned to his solo career, recording the album Burning Organ. However, in 2002, Universal Japan pushed for another Racer X release, notifying the band that they would release an official bootleg of the Yokohama concert to promote a new album. In October 2002, all four members of Racer X gathered at Gilbert's house in Las Vegas to record a new album. For the first time in the history of the band all four members were together at the same time to record a Racer X album. The outcome of the recording was Getting Heavier, which was sold alongside Snowball of Doom 2 in a package deal.
After the release of Getting Heavier, Racer X's progress came to a halt. Scott Travis, with Judas Priest, toured with Ozzfest in 2004 and recorded Angel of Retribution.[20][21] Jeff Martin began recording and touring with George Lynch, Kevin DuBrow, Michael Schenker,[1] recorded a 3-song demo with the band Leatherwolf, and began a solo career with the release of The Fool in 2006.[1] John Alderete joined the band The Mars Volta in 2003, which has toured regularly and recorded several albums.[22] Paul Gilbert has released several solo albums, as well as compilation albums and tours with Dream Theater's previous drummer Mike Portnoy.[13] Gilbert has toured with his supporting band in support of his latest albums.
Racer X performed at the 2009 NAMM show at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California, with a line-up consisting of Paul Gilbert, Scott Travis, Jeff Martin, and Juan Alderete.[23] On October 13, 2009, the video game Brütal Legend was released. The game's soundtrack featured two Racer X songs - "Y.R.O.", from Street Lethal, and "Technical Difficulties", from Technical Difficulties.[24]

Capacitive stylus with MacBook trackpad
Just bought a Just-Mobile AluPen capacitive stylus that I plan on using for my iPad/iPhone, but wanted to give it a shot on my MacBook Pro's trackpad as well (same capacitive-touch technology).
The problem is that with the MacBook, when you're using a drawing app like Pixelmator, it waits for click input to start drawing "ink" to the canvas. It's not like an iPad where you're either drawing (contact on screen) or you're not (no contact). How do I get this stylus to work intuitively on my MacBook the way it works on my iPad? I don't want to be clicking the trackpad when I'm drawing. It distorts things and degrades the stylus's tip much faster because of all the added pressure. There's got to be a way... PS I tried enabling "Tap to click" and "Dragging" in the Trackpad settings pane but those don't work intuitively either. There's got to be a better solution. |

Inklet is a program that will turn your trackpad into a tablet so it works like the screen of an iphone/ipad. It works well and is not very expensive. There is a trial version so you can see if works for you. I use a capacitive stylus with Inklet and Autograph (by same company) with my macbook and macbook air.

I've just given a try to inkle and one stylus pen by wacom (bamboo) that I borrowed for a quick test. I didn't like the experience but it may be that the stylus I've used is not the right one. Jahala, could you please elaborate a little more on your experience? Thanks a lot |

Regarding how well they work, one friend owns a Pogo stylus. I'll make sure I test it before I purchase mine... He complains a lot about that product when used with the iPad. I must say that this strikes me. I discovered inklet on friday (been looking for a trackpad based solution for a while), and I got really excited. I installed the app and watched the video they provide... Then I started looking for "the best" stylus and came across a comparison test http://www.macworld.com/article/1644..._styluses.html There, the Pogo sketch seems to work just fine with the iPad. But then I contacted this friend and he said to me "Do not buy it". And now, you second that... I'm borrowing it on monday. I'll see how well it works with the Trackpad and report back. If you have one, maybe you could give it a shot, and since it does not work well with the iPad, you may at least use it with the Mac if it tuns out ok. Thanks again for your comments. Regards, |

The benefit: At long last, you're a sensitive guy.
After your steak, finish the evening with a couple of pieces of dark
chocolate. The cocoa in chocolate contains methylxanthines, stimulants
that increase your body's sensitivity—ensuring that your skin
registers even the slightest touch or movement against it.
also contains phenylethylamine, a chemical that can give you a slight
natural high. "For many people, the feeling is similar to the
sensations you experience when you first fall in love," says Ward.

J. G. Parry-Thomas
John Godfrey Parry-Thomas | |
Born | Wrexham, Wales |
6 April 1884
Died | 3 March 1927 Pendine Sands |
(aged 42)
Cause of death
Head injury in motor-racing accident (first in pursuit of the land speed record) |
Resting place
Byfleet, Surrey |
Nationality | Welsh |
Education | Oswestry School, The City and Guilds College London |
Occupation | engineer and motor-racing driver |
Employer | Leyland Motors |
John Godfrey Parry-Thomas (6 April 1884 – 3 March 1927) was a Welsh engineer and motor-racing driver who at one time held the land speed record. He was the first driver to be killed in pursuit of the land speed record.[1]
Parry-Thomas was born in Wrexham, Wales, the son of the curate of Rhosddu. The family moved to nearby Oswestry when he was five years old, and he was educated at Oswestry School. He went on to study engineering at The City and Guilds College in London.
Leyland Motors[edit]
Parry-Thomas became chief engineer at Leyland Motors, a company whose main products were commercial vehicles. He filed for and received a number of patents, in the fields of electrical and automotive engineering.[2] After the First World War he and his assistant Reid Railton designed the Leyland Eight luxury motor car, which was intended to compete with Rolls-Royce. His experience of driving this car around Brooklands in 1920 persuaded him to give up his career with Leyland to become a full-time motor-racing driver and engineer.
In partnership with another engineer, Major Ken Thomson from New Zealand, he started Thomas Inventions Development Co., based inside the Brooklands circuit itself. After his death, this company became Thomson & Taylor and went on to build such cars as Donald Campbell's Blue Bird. From 1923 he lived in the "flying village" there, in a bungalow converted from a First World War hut named The Hermitage. It was an ascetic life, shared only with two Alsatian dogs and his cars, in stark contrast to the hedonism of the Bentley Boys.[3] Parry-Thomas achieved some success on the circuit, winning 38 races in five seasons and setting numerous records.
Land speed record[edit]
By 1925 Parry-Thomas realised that commercial success required a higher profile than Brooklands could offer, and switched his attention to the land speed record. He acquired the Higham Special from the estate of the deceased Count Zborowski and rebuilt the car with new bodywork for improved aerodynamics. The car was powered by a huge 27-litre Liberty V-12 aero-engine. Without Campbell's money and prestige, or Henry Segrave's factory connections, Parry-Thomas was unable to obtain a brand-new Napier Lion, as the other record contenders were planning. The car was running in 1925 but did not perform as expected.
In April 1926 the car, now named Babs, emerged with another new body. He celebrated by driving the lanes around Brooklands that same evening, despite his lack of headlamps.[3]
A few days later, despite the poor conditions and soft, wet sand, Parry-Thomas took the record at Pendine Sands, Wales, the same six-mile beach that Campbell had used in 1924 and 1925. The following day, 28 April 1926, he raised it to over 170 mph (270 km/h), a record that stood for almost a year.
During the winter of 1926/7 Babs was fitted with yet another new body, partially enclosing the drive and rear wheels by fairings. Parry-Thomas was killed at Pendine Sands on 3 March 1927 while trying to regain his own world land speed record that had been broken just weeks earlier by Malcolm Campbell on the same beach. At the time of the accident it was thought that the right-hand chain had broken and had hit Thomas, causing a fatal head injury as the car was rolling.
During the subsequent restoration of the car, it was found that this could not have been the case and that it was more likely that Thomas had been killed as a result of the injuries he sustained while the car rolled and slid along the beach at more than 100 mph (160 km/h).
Parry-Thomas was buried in St Mary's Churchyard in Byfleet, Surrey, close to the Brooklands Circuit. Following the inquest, Babs was buried in the dunes at Pendine Sands. Some 42 years later in 1969 it was controversially recovered,[4] and over the next 15 years was restored by Owen Wyn Owen,[5] at the time a member of Bangor University.[4] For part of every summer, Babs is on display at the Pendine Museum of Speed, Carmarthenshire.

Turnberry is a small village situated about 16 miles south of Ayr. The lighthouse at Turnberry is built on the spot where there used to be a castle, believed to be where Scotland's most famous king, Robert the Bruce, was born.
The monument, by the lighthouse, is in honour of British, United States and Australian servicemen that lost their lives while at the Turnberry School of Aerial Gunnery & Fighting during the two World Wars.
Turnberry Castle was one of the oldest buildings in Carrick, dating back as far as the 1100s. It was the seat of the ancient Earls of Carrick, one founded Crossraguel Abbey, and another, Robert the Bruce, became King of Scotland. It is unclear if Robert the Bruce was born at Turnberry Castle or at Loch Maben, but most historians believe he was born at Turnberry.
The golf course was laid out in 1901 by Troon professional Willie Fernie for Archibald Kennedy (3rd Marquess of Ailsa). The course was soon taken over by the Glasgow and South Western Railway, a company looking to set up the first golf resorts. Turnberry Hotel opened in 1906 as the first golf resort of its kind.
This golf resort is still regarded by many as the finest in Scotland. A light railway between Alloway, Turnberry and Girvan was completed in 1905, with the main purpose of carrying golfers from all over the UK to the resort. The rail line was closed in 1942. The architect James Miller designed the hotel on a plateau overlooking the golf course.
Right is a view of the A719 scenic coastal road 15 miles south of Ayr as it passes through Turnberry. Turnberry is a small village with a few old style luxury homes. This view shows the extensive hotel complex with self-contained cottages to the right and golf complex, regarded by many as the finest in the UK to the left.
The five star Turnberry Hotel offers fishing, shooting, archery, falconry, biking, horse riding, off roading in 4by4s, hill walking and much more. View the Turnberry Hotel website at: www.turnberryresort.co.uk * Special Offers * Large Image.
Right is a view showing the clubhouse of the Ailsa and Kyntyre courses. To the right in this photo is the Colin Montgomery Golf Academy and the 9 hole Arran course. Bookings can be made by phoning 44 (0)1655 334 032 or through the website at www.turnberryresort.co.uk/golf . Reviews/Offers .
Left is a view of the Ailsa course 454-yard par 4 ninth. This is Turnberry's most famous hole viewed from the back tee. The back tee requires a carry of about 200 yards to clear the cliffs. The lighthouse is built on the ruins of Turnberry Castle, birthplace of Scotland's most famous king (Robert the Bruce).

Right is a view of Turnberry beach looking towards the hotel. This one mile long sandy beach, that runs alongside the golf course, is seldom used.
Left is a view of a car park with small shop on the south side of Turnberry. The beach is a short walk from this car park following the path down the side of the large white Links Lodge B&B across the road.
The 4 Star B&B, Links Lodge, is situated beside Turnberry golf course. It has panoramic views over the Clyde to the Isle of Arran and Ailsa Craig. Turnberry Hotel is only a short walk from the lodge and Culzean Castle & Country Park four miles north. The lodge has a stunning T.V. lounge overlooking the garden and sea. Enjoy a hearty full Scottish breakfast with varied menu. A warm, friendly welcome awaits you. Two double rooms are available throughout the year.

Japan continues to innovate in the insecticide category, as shown by the two products which lead this month's summary of the latest novel launches from the household goods industry. Another notable launch sees a potential shakeup in laundry detergent packaging, with one producer looking beyond conventional plastic bottles to more eco-friendly alternatives.
Saving money and being kinder to the environment are two key concerns for consumers today. This month's look at new household goods launches finds a number of products that are designed to be economical, such as a 2-in-1 paper towel and napkin product, and a six-ply toilet roll. Meanwhile, the Fresh Snack Pack aims to appeal to green packed lunch makers with its reusable bag design.
Manufacturers are responding to a growing consumer concern for environmental issues with the launch of various household products touted as having green benefits. These include a biodegradable kitchen bag for food leftovers, and organic laundry sheets put in the washing machine in place of powder or liquid, as reported on Productscan Online.
Manufacturers hope to excite the world of kitchen cleaning and storage aids by adding some novel elements to their products. Among other introductions, Productscan Online reports on a broom designed to clean both floor and ceiling and a collapsible, space saving container. A more lavish product, the Skcandle, produces body oil as it burns; this is an unusual development in candle production.

Falcons re-sign QB Chris Redman, WR Harry Douglas
FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. (AP)
The Atlanta Falcons got off to a low-key start in free agency, agreeing to terms on new deals with backup quarterback Chris Redman and third receiver Harry Douglas.
The Falcons announced the deals Tuesday night, a few hours after the start of the NFL free agency period.
Redman has been Matt Ryan's backup the past four years. Last season, the second-stringer appeared in five games, completing 18 of 28 passes for 188 yards.
Douglas works in three-receiver sets with Roddy White and Julio Jones. Douglas is coming off a career-best season: 39 receptions for 498 yards and one touchdown.
The bulk of the Falcons' work is still to come. Their unrestricted free agents include linebacker Curtis Lofton and defensive end John Abraham.

The spring consisted of Ryan Rich and Manuel Garay (both PSS) writing a proposal for an independent study credit outlining how to get a student farm up and running. Dr. Lorraine Berkett, the PSS department chair passed the proposal.
With the help of Greg Eurich, the Hort Farm manager and the generosity of financial donations from the PSS department, the farm was started. The club members focused solely on the student run-farm. The first season included Jen Cirillo, Jeff Nissman, and Lori Porciello. They grew vegetable s and received credit for writing a 65-paged farm manual. They even presented the farm to high school students and teachers from Agro ecology Institute as an example of hands-on learning. Vegetables and herbs were mainly donated to food-shelves or used for personal use. It was overall a year of learning experiences.

Kid's still asleep, so I started surfing through the "stroller" tag on flickr. Here's a brief online exhibit [the photog's name is in brackets]. There were thousands of photos, but I just looked at a few hundred; add your own share-worthy finds in the comments:

The bamboo stroller is so unique!

I can't believe that someone actually uses the Bugaboo 2-wheel mode.

Two guys make a bet — one has to eat nothing but frosting and peanut butter for 7 days, the other has to spend 16 hours at Home Depot. Sophmore hijinks follow. Entertaining reading.
A co-worker forwarded me this interesting intro to the world of SVG graphics, and animation. SVG is an XML-based vector graphics standard. Looks to be the next big thing. Amazingly simple code, and extremely fast downloads. Plus, SVG animations can be fully dynamic. Wow. Be sure to download the plugin for your browser (linked from the article) and check it out.

diesel therapy
n.— «Transit, better known as "diesel therapy" to the feds, is maybe the worst part of being incarcerated. Imagine being handcuffed with a chain around your waist securing the handcuffs to your stomach area. You can't move your arms up and down or side to side. Your feet are shackled, limiting you to baby steps. Now get on a bus.» —"Diesel Therapy: Torturing Prisoners Legally Takes The Bus" by Seth M. Ferranti Vice Feb., 2004.
