I love to travel and have used AirBnB when traveling in Europe. It was great to meet new people. I'm excited to meet more people from all over the world. With that said I'm pretty busy so I won't be hanging around to nag you throughout your visit. I own a 4 bedroom home in central Portland and rent out rooms to two other queer guys. Our third room came up for rent and I decided to give AirBnb a shot.
I work in sustainability for the CIty of Portland, so I know a lot about the City and I'm happy to share suggestions or answer questions. Most my free time is spent hiking, traveling, gardening and working out. Of course it rains a lot here so I spend plenty of time watching movies, tv shows online and going to the theater. I read some books too. Love all kinds of media, culture and always interested in new adventures.

These are tasty ribs. I made them for Father's Day this weekend. The ribs had plenty of meat on them.
The key to this type of cooking is not to be in a hurry. The results of waiting while the ribs slow smoke is worth the time. Slow and low is the attitude here. A constant temperature is also important; 225' is perfect for ribs. My smoker maintains a constant temperature with a heating element below the smoker box that can be dialed in to 100-250' and hold the selected temperature as long as needed. These ribs can be done on a barbeque grill with indirect heat and using soaked wood chips rather than wood chunks. I used a combination of Oak & Hickory wood chunks in the smoker box. I basted them with sauce on the grill to glaze the sauce into the meat during the final 1/2 hour of cooking.
I served the ribs with baked beans, roasted Yukon Gold potatoes and a fruit salad. As for a wine we had a Gustafson Family Vineyards 2007 Dry Creek Mountain Petite Sirah. This is great little winery on top of the mountain above Dry Creek Valley in the Healdsburg wine country area. A great spot for a picnic and gorgeous view of the valley and lake below. My youngest daughter and I landed on it while attending a mushroom foraging class a couple of years ago.
- 7 lb pork baby back ribs (2 large racks)
- 1 cup Basic BBQ rub (link is below)
- 1 cup Basic BBQ sauce (link is below)
- 6 oz wood chunks (I used a combination of Oak & Hickory)
- Remove the tough membrane on the bottom side of the ribs. This can be tricky sometimes but stick with it as it is really necessary. It allows the dry rub to penetrate both sides of the ribs. Also if left on the ribs will be tough when biting into the cooked membrane.
- Wash and dry the ribs. Liberally coat the ribs with dry rub. Rub the seasoning into the pork with your hands. Marniate in plastic bags in the refrigerator over night.
- Preheat the smoker with 6 oz of wood chunks to a temperature of 225'
- Rub more seasoning into the ribs and load into the smoker. Smoke for 3 1/2 hours at 225'. Resist the tempatation of looking to see how things are going. If you're lookin you ain't cooking and you are loosing valuable smoke.
- Preheat a barbeque grill so that coals are at medium high heat when the ribs are fully smoked.
- Check the ribs for doneness at 3 1/2 hours. They should be pulling away from the bone but not falling off the bone. They may look cremated but they are not. Transfer the ribs to the preheated grill and cook meat side down over indirect heat for 15 minutes with the cover on. Turn the ribs over and baste with BBQ sauce and cook about 7 minutes. Turn and baste the other side and cook cover for another 8 minutes.
- The ribs are ready to serve. Provide more sauce at the table and lots of moist paper towels.

Central Standard Brewing to open at Douglas and Hydraulic
WICHITA — Andy Boyd and Ian Crane have been home-brewing beer together for a decade, and now they want to share what they create with all of Wichita.
"It's kind of a passion of ours," Boyd says. He says the idea is to "make a little money at it and share (the beer) with the community."
Central Standard Brewing will open in 4,000 square feet in a building they purchased at the southwest corner of Douglas and Hydraulic, which is near Hyde Park.
"We have to . . . basically get a conditional zoning permit, because it's next to a public park," Boyd says. "That's what we're working on right now."
The business will have a limited food menu and five or six types of beer to start. Boyd and Crane plan to have 10 or more kinds of beer eventually.
Boyd says he wants to stress that Central Standard Brewing is not going to be a bar or nightclub.
"It'll be family friendly," he says."It's about appreciation of beer, not about drinking to excess and all that."

Notwithstanding the technical problems being faced by Boeing 787 Dreamliner during the last few weeks, Air India on Wednesday received the delivery of the tenth Dreamliner with Civil Aviation Minister Ajit Singh on board.
The latest Boeing 787, carrying call-sign VT-ANG, landed at the IGI Airport at 1350 hours and was received by Air India chairman and managing director, Rohit Nandan and Prabhat Kumar, Joint Secretary in the Civil Aviation Ministry.
Mr. Singh was in the US, leading a team of his Ministry officials, to attend the India-US Aviation Summit. He had a series of meetings with aviation officials, apart from visiting the Boeing headquarters and manufacturing facilities. The tenth Dreamliner arrived days after one of them suffered cracks in its windowpanes when it landed at Melbourne while another had a false alarm shown on its cockpit panel about a problem in the brake system as it landed under emergency conditions here. Last month, a panel had fallen off the aircraft's belly in Bangalore.
Boeing's Communications and Marketing Manager Wilson Chow said Boeing is aware of the in service issue and we're working with Air India on the matter.
Air India, which has been experiencing trouble with its newly-acquired Boeing 787s almost since it begun inducting them late last year, wants to use the new-generation aircraft fleet as the mainstay for rapid expansion of its global network. With this aircraft, Air India now has ten Boeing 787s out of a total of 27 for which it has placed orders.
The airline, which has connected cities like Birmigham, Melbourne and Sydney, plans to have air links with Rome, Milan and Moscow during this winter season. The planes were also flying on domestic routes like Delhi-Chennai, Delhi-Bangalore and Delhi-Kolkata.

OpEd: Why You Should Schedule Sex On a Regular Basis
There's an old joke in the performing arts: "How do you get to Carnegie Hall?" Answer: "Practice, practice, practice."
Today, I read a great post by the awesome sexual health writer August McLaughlin in which she responded to a HuffPo piece about why couples need to schedule sex — with one of the reasons being to boost the man's ego. In her response piece, August gives her reasons why a couple might not want to have regularly scheduled sex — she advocates having sex when you want to, and her points regarding that particular HuffPo scenario are solid. Women should not feel compelled to have sex just to soothe a man's delicate ego. We put up with enough of that outside the bedroom. But the concept of scheduled sex actually ties in to my own orgasmic practice and my approach with helping others realize their orgasmic potential.
I wholeheartedly endorse regularly scheduled sex, especially at the beginning of a relationship, as long as both people enter the process honestly and equally. When a couple has made the leap from hand-holding to sex, there is so much to learn about each other's bodies. The newness of the relationship should make arousal very easy with all those lovey-dovey hormones drowning your brain in bliss-vibes. Once the relationship is established, life and work and kids tend to take priority. That alone is a great reason to have regularly scheduled sex-time, to make sure you have that consistent connection that centers you both back to why you're together in the first place.
And before dissenters blast me with "But sex shouldn't be the basis of the relationship!" Well, then, you'll have to explain 500 million years of evolutionary procreation and a big chunk of human biology, anthropology, psychology, and sexology. Sex is imperative to a good relationship, and at the foundation of both sex and the relationship is communication. Bad sex can often be attributed to bad communication. And even if you can't have traditional sexual activity due to a disability or medical condition, there are alternatives; so yes, persons with disabilities can have enjoyable, satisfying sexual experiences. My point is that lovemaking can improve with regularly scheduled "training sessions", or as I call them, "awakening sessions". (Remember, part of the definition of "arouse" is "to awaken".)
Sex with yourself as well as with a new partner should be scheduled to happen on a regular schedule, preferably daily. Unless you're blessed to have an Orgasm Faery guarantee your arousal and climax, regular sexual activity is required to keep the body in orgasm-mode. The intent of the "awakening sessions" is to awaken the body and your capacity for increasing your orgasmic response.
The word "orgasm" comes from the Greek orgasmos and means "to swell", therefore true orgasm is NOT the sudden release at the end of arousal. Technically, orgasm is happening throughout arousal with the climax being a sudden swelling and release of muscular tension. For many, this release is very physical, but for some this release is full-body and emotional as well. This is most confusing for men, who associate orgasm with ejaculation, even though these are different actions from different parts of the autonomic nervous system. High school sex education classes still teach that men "must" orgasm to expel semen for procreation. This is wrong — ejaculation is required for expelling sperm. Ask any man who's ever needed Viagra, and he can tell you that orgasmic pleasure and ejaculation are not necessarily one and the same. (But that is a whole other blog post.) Because of the misperception of what orgasm actually is, men especially miss out on many orgasms during the arousal period because they don't know to separate the subtle orgasm response from the explosive ejaculatory reflex. Men who have mastered non-ejaculatory climax orgasms love being able to have multiple climatic orgasms in one lovemaking session.
This brings me to another point. Get rid of the goal of orgasm. Men are taught to be very goal-oriented, which is why they can miss so many good feelings during the journey to climax. Men also are under the incorrect myth that women have more capacity for sexual arousal and more orgasms than men. This is not true on the subtle body level. Men have the same capacity as women for hours of orgasmic bliss, especially if the man has learned ejaculation control. If so, the whole session is a swelling of pleasure, wave after wave of orgasms, and multiple climatic experiences with no refractory period necessary. The orgasms just keep building until he's ready to stop.
But how do you get to that point of awakening? The same way you get to Carnegie Hall: practice, practice, practice. How do you work that practice into your busy life? Schedule, schedule, schedule.
Because I come from a Tantrik perspective, I am an advocate of regular, scheduled practice for a number of reasons but mainly because awakening the subtle body is a meditative practice for me.
Orgasm is a learned response, and your body needs regular practice to become proficient. Yes, there are times when orgasm happens by itself, but that is not the case for most women, considering so many women have never orgasmed during penetrative sex. Orgasm is a dual response: the physical body and the subtle body. Most men know how to jerk off, and most women know how to rub their clit to soreness. That does not ensure an ecstatic experience. I think we've all experienced at some time or another the physical orgasm that was just located to the genitals, and we somehow felt disappointed.
Today, in fact, is the day my daughter heads back to school, and I am finally alone at home again, something I don't have on a regular basis when school is out for summer. Every summer since my initial awakening, my practice is minimal to non-existent due to privacy issues (thin walls … I'm loud). During these nearly three months of little to no practice, I can most definitely tell a difference in my arousal levels, my "swelling" responses, and the intensity of my climaxes. I still have spontaneous orgasms and my stealth O's, but going nearly three months without my super-orgasms is like being accustomed to a daily round of the 1812 Overture but having to settle for Twinkle Twinkle Little Star instead. Not cool! Thank goddess, school is back on!
No one would tell a wannabe concert pianist that he should practice only when he really has the urge to play. He would never become proficient enough to call himself a concert pianist, much less to play a gig at Carnegie Hall without dedicated, routine practice. When it comes to orgasms, we have to practice regularly, learning how to play our body as an instrument of pleasure the way a musician plays a piano or oboe or guitar with expertise and ease.
As I teach my clients, the subtle body is the real wonder when it comes to orgasmic fulfillment. But awakening the subtle body requires specific steps done repeatedly and routinely over a span of time. Yes, you schedule your orgasm-awakening sessions the same way you schedule your daily shower or your gym workout or having dinner ready by a certain time. Have your sessions at the same time, preferably daily, but at least three times per week, and under the same circumstances. As with any exercise, routine repetition allows the body and more importantly THE MONKEY MIND to know, "Oh, we're doing this now. Okay," and settling into that higher bliss state begins to happen more quickly and more effortlessly. Then, when you're in the moment with a partner, you have a reference for where you want to be in your arousal and you can get there more quickly — you've done your practice, practice, practice, and now you're ready for Carnegie Hall. Orgasm becomes not just one major release, i.e., climax, but a true swelling of sensations and experiences that grow and expand exponentially for hours if you want, until you're ready to come down from that higher bliss state; and even then the long, slow descent can be as throbbing, undulating, and breathtaking as the journey upward.
When we do not practice our sexual-ness and sensual-ness and awakening-ness in a dedicated, routine practice, our sexual response lessens. Regular arousal can even lessen. Arousal and even vaginal fluid are dependent upon hormones; if you neglect keeping your hormones happy, your hormones won't be there to keep you happy.
For most people, their sexual "practice" is sporadic, and yet they expect Carnegie Hall-worthy orgasms to result. And when the arousal and/or the climax is less than what was hoped for, people often turn to other means of artificially increasing the odds via vibrators and/or porn, neither of which helps your body awaken to its own amazing potential. Vibrators can damage the nerves, and porn keeps you in your fantasies in your head when your focus should be entirely on your body and the awakening responses to stimulation.
For a couple, scheduling regular awakening sessions can be a much-needed time to learn each other's bodies. After all, do you automagically know what to do with a penis if you've never had lots of time to play with one? Do you know what to do with a vagina if you've never had a languid evening to explore inside one? An awakening session is for the awakening — orgasm may or may not happen. However, the more you do it, the more likely spontaneous orgasms will be a regular part of the experience. This greatly benefits the orgasmic response during lovemaking as well as deepening the bond between partners. No stress, just exploration and awakening. Though, I would be very surprised if such juicy exploration and discovery didn't lead to sex. (Enjoy!)
In some Tantric traditions, scheduling sex on a daily basis is an important part of learning and growing and sharing. Some teachers have clients set aside a week or 14 days or even 21 days to do nothing but make love. If they aren't going to the bathroom or eating a meal, they're making love. There is something deeply intimate and intense that happens when you are that committed to being so connected with another person. For most people, this kind of "sexcation" is impossible to arrange, but it is possible to schedule that hour per day when it's just the two of you: awakening, sharing, and loving.
Approach the awakening session as an active meditation. Allow and receive. Let the subtle body do its thing. Relearn what it means to orgasm and feel pleasure. Soon, you'll have orgasms while walking down the street, shopping at the grocery store, standing in line at the post office. You'll have laugh-gasms, heart-gasms, foot-gasms, scalp-gasms, face-gasms, arm-gasms, soul-gasms, and more-gasms — all of which will enrich your lovemaking as a couple. As you progress with your daily, scheduled practice, you will learn a whole new respect for the wisdom of the body as it takes you to levels of pleasure that are unimaginable until you actually experience them. Have you ever had a climatic orgasm so powerful, you could feel that you were the universe? You could feel all of eternity with your fingertips? I have. And you can, too.
Now, get out your calendar and commit to daily awakening sessions for at least a week, but preferably for one month. You'll be amazed how you've grown orgasmically in so short a time!
Aroused and practicing,

I have been a fan of Playboy Magazine since my days in High School. I never wanted to throw them out so I started to keep these wonderful magazines. At one time I had some 10 plus years and kept them neatly in my garage. When I moved to a new home I had a garage sale like so many American's do. My collection was not for sale but was there in garage on the shelf. We left for lunch and didn't think to lock the garage door...upon return all those Playboys were gone. So I started again and now I am retired and I really need to let some 20 plus years of Playboy Magazines go. So I created this website to offer them for sale. PLEASE NOTE THAT ONLY ONE ISSUE OF EACH IS AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. Playboy Magazines that had Anna Nicole Smith are SOLD OUT

Ok I'm finally starting!
To blog or not to blog
Trip Start
Jan 09, 2013
Trip End
Jan 22, 2013
Why contemplating? Because I hate writing! English was always my least favorite subject. Grammer is not my strong suit.
I hate reading.
I hate writing even more.
But I realize that this trip is an adventure of a lifetime. I will be seeing, eating, and experiencing some amazing things! It would be a shame not to document those moments. I also think this will be an opportunity for me to share my days in SE Asia with families and friends, and stay connected with them.
So here it is. My Travelpod.
Stay tuned! And don't judge me for my writing skills :-P

Bumpcasso's hands are his gift and he is certainly using them. Recognizing that, Bumpcasso has been perfecting his artistic creativity since the tender age of three. Born in Gary, Indiana, in 1956, his first drawing was penned on construction paper and was entitled "Draw Like Me, Paint Like Me".
Fast forward 28 years, Bumpcasso has parlayed that artistic genius into a vast array of paintings that showcase his technical mastery of diverse mediums. He creates on canvas, utilizing oils, watercolors, clay and wood. Bumpcasso's experience and persistence as an artist have lead to commissioned works for wall murals, portraits, and abstracts. Some of his personal achievements are the exclusive Signature Collections of Michael Jordan, and Boston Celtics Larry Bird, two men as diverse in the own artistic fields as Bumpcasso himself.
Bumpcasso is humbled that his work is appreciated by first-time enthusiastic and growing audiences, as well as art connoisseurs nationally and internationally. When asked how he approaches his work his response:" With an unending source of inspiration that comes from a higher force." His life experiences also contribute to his creations. "Art is something you feel from within, then it transforms you into making it come alive. From that moment on, the work takes on a form of its own leading me to create wonders."
Some of those wonders include recent highly sought-after President Barack Obama paintings:
"The Visionary & The Architect", a canvas painting of Martin Luther King, Jr. (the visionary) & President Barack Obama (the architect)
"Faith", The word says it all. The painting shows President Elect Obama in the foreground with supporters flocking him with "Change" signs in hand.
"My Rock of Gibraltar", painting of President Obama and wife Michelle Obama on canvas It's the most famous rock in the world, signifying unwavering strength. President Obama referred to Michelle as his rock at the Democratic National Convention.
Creating beauty, woven with a story, has always been Bumpy's passion. His does that with every stroke of his paintbrush.
Bumpy translates his God given talent into paying it forward. He unselfishly gives of his time to children, mentoring in the inner city communities of Atlanta, Georgia, where he's resides. He also participates and donates work to charitable organizations such as the American Cancer Society, ALSAC St. Jude Research Hospital, Epitomes Foundation and countless other foundations throughout the United States.
Bumpy desires to transform his hobby into a lucrative profession. While people take different roads in life, he believes he's chosen one less travelled. With unyielding determination, he welcomes the journey.

Many widely available soft drinks — including Hawaiian Punch, Diet Pepsi Twist, Sunny D, Kool-Aid Jammers and Country Time Lemonade — contain two ingredients that can form benzene, a known carcinogen linked to leukemia and other blood cancers; nervous and immune system disorders; anemia and chromosome aberrations. Benzene is particularly toxic to children and those who have repeated exposure.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) first learned of the hazard 16 years ago, when its researchers discovered that the interaction of benzoate preservatives and ascorbic acid (vitamin C) can form benzene. This interaction is exacerbated by prolonged storage under warm conditions, and the products most at risk are diet and sugar-free drinks.
Rather than advise a recall, the FDA entered into a private agreement with the largest beverage manufacturers, who agreed to "get the word out" to the rest of the industry. Some of the companies "fixed" the problem by adding sugar or chemicals called chelating agents, both of which can slow the formation of benzene.
But it seems many companies haven't yet received word, since the two ingredients are still paired in a wide range of beverages all over the world. "There is no reason to add ascorbic acid to soft drinks," says Glen Lawrence, a former science advisor for the FDA. "Those that have vitamin C naturally in them should not use sodium benzoate as a preservative. It is really very easy to avoid the problem."
The FDA recently announced that it has again found benzene in some undisclosed beverages. Independent tests by other laboratories found benzene concentrations up to 10 times the federal limit for drinking water. (There is no allowable limit for beverages other than water, because the government assumes that people drink more water than anything else.)
The FDA maintains that the levels of benzene found recently are "not an imminent health hazard." The Environmental Working Group (EWG), however, discovered that the FDA continued to test for benzene during the 1990s. Of the diet sodas tested, 79 percent contained levels above the federal limit for tap water.
Just weeks after the news about benzene resurfaced, the United Kingdom's food safety officials began testing for benzene, and promptly removed some soft drinks from stores. Richard Wiles, EWG senior vice president, thinks the FDA should do the same: "Disclose the test results that taxpayers have paid for. Tell consumers which products contain high levels of benzene."

JBuilding on the success of the Jeti Titan series of UV-curable wide-format printers (recently recognized for its superiority in the IDEAlliance Wide/Grand Format Inkjet System Study), Agfa's new Jeti Titan S (speed) and HS (high speed) true flatbed UV-inkjet printers combine exceptional print quality and high productivity at a best-in-industry price point. The engines incorporate the latest generation in inkjet printheads (the Ricoh Gen 5 with 1,280 nozzles). The Jeti Titan S is equipped with one row of prin heads, yet is field upgradeable to two rows, thus becoming a Jeti Titan HS and doubling the productivity level.
Reflecting market demands, the default set-up for both models is six colors plus white (CMYKLcLmWW). White printing is supported different modes including overprint, under-print, spot, under-spot, fill and over-spot for rigids and pre-white for roll media. The productive white ink solution features an automated recirculation system for optimal reliability. They are designed to guarantee the highest accuracy in drop placement. The 7 pico liter droplet size makes it possible to achieve photorealistic image quality with fine text down to 4pt positive and negative.

Lexus LX Carbon Fiber Hoods | Lexus LX Carbon Fiber Hood
Featured Hoods Products
Lexus LX Carbon fiber hood trend started from mid 1990's in Japan, it was used for weight reduction of the vehicle for racers to achieve better time and performance. It was brought to US market in late 1990's and became one of the most popular modifications for racing enthusiasts. As we seen in the market today, LX carbon fiber hoods have becoming a fashion trend because of its uniqueness and it provides a "racer look" to an everyday ride.
There are 2 types of Lexus LX carbon fiber hood for Lexus LX available in the market, the first type of Lexus LX hood is made with 100% carbon fiber sheet, it is extremely light weight for race-use only therefore it's not popular and not recommended to install on the street cars.
The second type of hood for Lexus LX is made as carbon fiber face with fiberglass (FRP) skeleton which is mainly what is offered by most of the shops. It is not 100% made with carbon fiber only to increase the durability and structure strength therefore it weights much heavier than the true Lexus LX carbon fiber hood.
Ram air hood and LX cowl induction hood are both very popular modification. It is engineered to bring in more air into the engine bay for cooling and creating down-force to increase the handling of the vehicle.We carry a huge selection of Seibon Lexus LX carbon fiber hoods, Vis Racing Lexus LX Hood,Lexus LX carbon fiber hoods and much more. We are also specialized in Mustang hood, Civic hood, Camaro hood, Accord carbon fiber hood.

EPA Meets With Stakeholders on TSCA Prioritization2:08 PM MDT | September 12, 2011 | Kara Sissell Key stakeholders meeting last week with EPA are seeking clarity and some revisions to the agency's recently revised plan for prioritizing chemicals for review under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). EPA's plan includes a two-step process to prioritize chemicals and modifies a prior approach for "chemical action plans" under TSCA.

Coke's Ripken ad has all the ingredients, lacks the fizz
Published October 8, 2001
It just doesn't fit. Take one of the most challenging, emotional periods in the history of our country, add one of the most beloved and archetypically American brands, plus a revered sports hero who is playing out the end of his single-team career with the honor and dignity that has exemplified his entire tenure as a pro and, finally, the Great American Pastime. All the pieces are in place for one of the most powerful, resonant TV commercials in recent years.

So why is the new Coca-Cola TV commercial honoring the retirement of Cal Ripken Jr. only marginally successful?
In a word: boring.
The spot captures Ripken looking around an empty Camden Yards, à la Roy Hobbs, hearing ghostly broadcast descriptions of career highlights as he downs a signature "contour bottle" of Coke. His farewell moment is interrupted by a young female voice: "Dad, ready to go?"
Cal pauses dramatically and responds, "Yeah," as he and his 11-year-old daughter, Rachel, walk off the field together to a swirl of dramatic music and a superimposed Coca-Cola logo. (Ironically, the screenplay to "The Natural," from which this commercial liberally borrows, was written by Phil Dusenberry, an executive at the agency BBDO who has probably supervised or written more Pepsi commercials than anyone else alive.)
The obvious template for the commercial is the now decades-old Coke spot featuring "Mean" Joe Greene. In that spot, Greene, then the great defensive intimidator for the Pittsburgh Steelers, showed us his tender (and his thirsty) side when he traded his game jersey to a young fan for the ice-cold Coke Greene needed to satisfy a game-day thirst.
The magic of that spot stemmed from the persona of the athlete, the emotion of an engaging story line and the product as the real hero — the enabler that allowed a kid to connect with his hero and that hero to quench his nasty thirst.
The Ripken spot has none of those elements. Given the set-up, Ripken could just as easily have been rubbing Bengay on his thigh or chomping Cracker Jack and communicated the same amount of product relevance.
Part of it is, there's no "Mean Joe," a player from an era before 24/7 media scrutiny and all-pervasive sports coverage. Greene was a guy we knew only as being really, well, mean. It took a commercial to humanize him. With Ripken, we get Cal. Not "Mean Cal" or "Air Cal," just "Cal": a great player we've seen thousands of times; a player everybody knew would show up every day and perform capably.
That doesn't mean that Ripken isn't a certain future hall of famer. It just means that there's none of the inherent drama or intrinsic use of the brand being advertised that made the 1979 Mean Joe spot one of the greatest in advertising history.
Coke's advertising in recent years has struggled to find a voice. From the glory days of the late '80s and early '90s, when the "Always Coca-Cola" jingle rang true across a whole slew of Hollywood-generated, Hollywood-worthy story lines, Coke has run through several flawed campaigns, including a ghastly approach where friends or family members who didn't serve Coke were insulted by their guests.
The latest Coke campaign from longtime agency McCann-Erickson, tagged "Life tastes good," seems to find firmer footing. While the commercials are somewhat timid, they at least say the right things about the brand, and if better developed might be able to recapture some of the magic Coca-Cola has lost in the past few years. The Ripken spot is more of a one-off special, outside the parameters of the main approach, and is not tagged with the brand's flagship campaign slogan.
The Ripken commercial, which was scheduled to launch almost concurrently with the tragic events of Sept. 11, was delayed briefly as Coke pulled its advertising.
It premiered on the stadium screens at Camden Yards on Sept. 22 with Coke providing a significant donation to disaster relief. A terrific gesture by the sponsor.

MONDAY, Sept. 10 (HealthDay News) -- Marijuana use is associated with an approximately two-fold higher risk of testicular cancer, particularly nonseminoma and mixed histology tumors, according to a study published online Sept. 10 in Cancer.
John Charles A. Lacson, from the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, and colleagues compared self-reported use of marijuana and other recreational drugs in 163 men diagnosed with testicular germ cell tumors and in 292 matched controls.
Compared with never using drugs, and after adjusting for a number of factors, the researchers found that use of marijuana was associated with a higher risk of testicular cancer (odds ratio [OR], 1.94), while cocaine use was associated with a lower risk (OR, 0.54). Marijuana use was associated with a greater likelihood of nonseminoma and mixed histology tumors (OR, 2.42).
"We conclude that marijuana use is associated with an elevated risk of testicular germ cell tumor, especially nonseminoma or mixed histology tumors," Lacson and colleagues write. "This consistent finding across three epidemiologic studies now warrants mechanistic research investigating biologic processes whereby constituents of marijuana smoke may influence testicular carcinogenesis."

Human Embryonic Stem Cell Biology/Epigenetics
In 2011 I earned my BA in Biology from Western Connecticut State University where I conducted research in the laboratories of Dr. Frank Dye, Dr. Edwin Wong, and Dr. Thomas Lonergan. I joined the CMB program in the fall of 2012, and my experience thus far has been nothing short of amazing. I chose the CMB program at UVM for its breadth of interdisciplinary, cutting-edge research, and for the focus and importance the faculty place on the individual development of each student. When I'm not studying, in class, or in the lab I enjoy getting outdoors as much as possible. Burlington offers incredible places for hiking, swimming, biking, or just exploring the beautiful state of Vermont.
Research Description
My home is in the Stein/Lian Laboraroty where I work closely with Dr. Rodrigo Grandy. My current research focuses on the epigenetics of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). Specifically, we are elucidating unique epigenetic signatures of the human pluripotent cell cycle in order to understand the molecular mechanisms governing pluripotency and lineage commitment. An indepth understanding of exactly how hESCs maintain the pluripotent state and give rise to virtually every cell of the human body is essential for advancing the fields of regenerative medicine, wound healing, and disease modeling.

Date of Stay: February, 2013
This campground has potential. It is a bit older and a lot of the sites can be a little tight to get into. They have recently installed sewer connections at some of the sites in one area and are working on renovating a lot of the campground. The pads are a little narrow and a lot of them are built up so there is a bit of a drop off when you step off the last step of your RV. If staying here you might would want to pass through the campground to find a spot that doesn't have that drop off. There are a lot that are fine. There are some spectacular views of the lake from many of the sites. Spanish moss hanging from the trees gives an added atmosphere to the campgrounds. The showers and rest rooms we entered were in need of some work but we very rarely use those facilities so was not an issue for us. The only con for us was the lack of security and the ability for anyone to enter this park at all hours and is why I give it such a low rating. I hope our unfortunate experience with this aspect was unique and not the norm for this quaint campground but it will cause us to look elsewhere when camping in this area.
Date of Stay: January, 2013
We like to visit here to get away. The lake is nice and the beach is also nice. The full hookup sites tend to stay full but the dump station allows two trailers to dump at the same time. We have never had to wait long to clean out our holding tanks when it was time to leave. We actually met some really nice people while cleaning out the holding tanks who pointed us to a nice campground on another lake. There is also a nice general store on the premises that serves some really great lunches during the busy season. The trailer sites are concrete and most are fairly level. There is plenty of shade but it makes it difficult to get a satellite signal and TV reception. I have been able to get satellite by using a portable dish and have actually shared my portable dish with the neighbor who had a motor home with the dish on top and couldn't get reception. Cell reception is also poor with both Verizon and AT&T but we were able to use a cell booster to get one. I would highly recommend this campground. Oh yeah, make sure you visit Red River Drug Store and also Nichols Sporting Goods in Coushatta. They have some really unique goods we found making this area really fun for us to visit.
Date of Stay: November, 2012
We absolutely love this campground. We have family in neighboring areas and this is a great place to meet. We have a family reunion twice a year here and all of the kids that come love the water playground. Sites are nice and easy to get into. This is a newer park so most sites do not have mature trees as of yet but they have been planted. The sites in the back of the campground do have lots of shade, but those sites do not have sewage connections. The staff is very friendly and is always working to make your stay the best it can be. The showers and restrooms, along with the washer and dryers on site, are always nicely kept. Oh Yeah: the fishing in the lake is also very good.

In this short and deliberately provocative paper I reflect on what seems to be a yawning gulf between the potential contribution of the social sciences and the typically restricted models and concepts of social change embedded in contemporary environmental policy in the UK, and in other countries too. As well as making a strong case for going beyond what I refer to as the dominant paradigm of 'ABC'-attitude, behaviour, and choice-I discuss the attractions of this model, the blind spots it creates, and the forms of governance it sustains. This exercise provides some insight into why so much relevant social theory remains so marginalised, and helps identify opportunities for making better use of existing intellectual resources.


text: WILKES-BARRE - Lorraine Stelma, who passed away on Jan. 17 about three weeks after she was found injured in her house, died of natural causes, according to the Luzerne County Coroner's Office. City police and paramedics responded to Stelma's house at 247 Horton St. for a report of a fall victim on Dec. 29. A neighbor said at the time that police led a man out of the house in handcuffs. The man was later identified as Stelma's son, Mark J. Stelma, 44, who was jailed on outstanding warrants for non-payment of fines related to allowing his dogs to run loose. Stelma died Jan. 17 at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center in Plains Township. Forensic pathologist Dr. Gary Ross concluded Monday that Stelma died of natural causes.

General Electric (NYSE: GE ) is right smack in the middle of a very busy year. Just last month Alstom, a French engineering company, agreed to sell a large chunk of its assets to General Electric, and by the end of this month GE expects to launch an initial public offering (IPO) for its retail finance business, Synchrony Financial. Both moves by General Electric have been cheered by investors, and today the industrial conglomerate released its second quarter results. Here are the details.
By the numbers
General Electric's operating earnings per share climbed 8% in the second quarter to $0.39, compared to last year. Revenues checked in at $36.2 billion for the second quarter, a 3% gain over last year's second quarter.
"GE had a good performance in the quarter and in the first half of 2014, with double-digit industrial segment profit growth, 30 basis points of margin expansion, and nearly $6 billion returned to shareholders," said GE Chairman and CEO Jeff Immelt. "The environment continues to be generally positive."
One reason investors are cheering the coming IPO of Synchrony Financial is because it represents the new direction General Electric is taking its business. Slowly, but surely, GE is refocusing on its industrial roots and distancing itself from GE Capital which brought on severe problems during the great recession.
In today's second quarter presentation, it's evident that GE's industrial portfolio is strengthening.
Back to its roots
Industrial segment profits rose 9% in the second quarter to $4.2 billion and its margins expanded 20 basis points over the same period last year. General Electric's total industrial segment revenue growth was 7% in the second quarter, compared to last year; however, the good news is that much of the growth is organic. GE's industrial segment organic growth is 6% through the first six months of 2014, compared to the same time frame last year.
Aside from the biggest winners, such as Boeing and Airbus Group, General Electric walked away with some very big contracts from this week's Farnborough Airshow. GE locked up $36 billion worth of orders for its world class aviation engines, at current list prices. GE's industrial products are highly in demand, which is fueling the company's order backlog and offers investors significant revenue transparency.
General Electric's backlog recorded its strongest services growth since the second quarter of 2011, and its total order backlog is $23 billion higher than it was during last year's second quarter -- good stuff.
Adding to GE's strengthening industrial portfolio was its Alstom purchase, the company's largest acquisition in history. While GE was forced to revise its initial offer, to appease the French government, the economics of the deal remained unchanged. GE received some very valuable Alstom assets at a 7.9x pro forma EBITDA.
The move should produce a very attractive return on investment down the road and the assets will immediately add to General Electric's bottom line. In addition to that, part of what makes General Electric one of the world's greatest conglomerates, it has proven to create significant and valuable synergies between its existing businesses.
GE predicts it can create roughly $1.2 billion in cost synergies by the fifth year. What investors will want to watch is how General Electric goes about integrating its newly found assets; it will take a broad effort on GE's part, and a full team led by executive Mark Hutchinson is already beginning the process.
Bottom line
Ultimately, General Electric's revenue and earnings checked in line with expectations, even if slightly lower. GE is incredibly thorough and detailed during its quarterly reports and dishes out very valuable information to investors in its presentations. For this reason, I'll be taking multiple deep dives on the industrial segment, the Alstom deal, and the coming IPO -- stay tuned.

Wow, check it out: Full credit sequences, broken down by participants. (Bravo for the no-brainer!) Our least favorite things include the arbitrary use of specialized sets (i.e. jail cell) and a laissez-faire attitude that allows a non-cum swapping scene to make a bad impression at the top of the show. The Ashely/Angel anal encounter is hot and athletic ... but no snowballing? Then comes scene two, and three, and ... you guessed it. Either B/G or B/B/G. Well, do the math! Are straight guys gonna trade a mouthful of spunk from their tag team partner? DUH!
This bait & switch bullshit plagues the entire DVD, with one exception: a tasty threesome featuring Daisy, Sweet and Van Damage. Sure, the balling's bound to raise a boner. And while viewers are jerking off they might calculate that the only scene featuring two girls is finally gonna deliver the sticky goods! Yet when it does ... we've seen much better.
Retailing: WTW filler.

There are only so many hours in a day and there's only so much you can charge for your products or services. Once your start-up hits these inherent ceilings, you're at full capacity in terms of financial return. You're probably near the end of your tether, too. But there is a way to expand your business beyond this point, without the responsibility of employing staff.
Gone is the need for an endless list of "Stuff I need to do" (aka everything). Instead, have two lists:
Write down what you're best at. You will be far more productive, with better results, if you only do the stuff that interests you, the things you are best at, the jobs your skills are best suited to – in short, the reasons you started the business in the first place.
Deep down you probably know that while you love analysing customer feedback (List One) or coming up with new product ideas (ditto), you usually put off writing your blog or doing your accounts. Or maybe there is something you put off because you just don't know how to do it (that new e-commerce part of the site maybe or the wireframes for your new mobile app). Those are the jobs that belong squarely in List Two.
This includes everything else. Whether it's not the best use of your time or you don't have the right expertise, be honest with yourself about what would be done better or more quickly by somebody else. As a business owner, knowing when to delegate work can be one of the most difficult decisions. Remember that your time is finite – and probably your most precious resource. Here are five suggestions for jobs you could hand to someone else and get some valuable hours back in the process.
Faffing around with fonts, colours, symbols and swooshes is a) fun and b) a gaping black hole of productivity. Twiddling with our logo or letterhead is what we do when we're avoiding doing something more difficult and more useful. Better to browse designer's portfolios to find a design pro who matches your requirements and let them get on with it.
Good businesses communicate – regularly. But when you're short on time, generating engaging, fresh, on-brand, unique, SEO-rich content for that weekly blog, e-shot or customer newsletter can feel like a millstone round your neck. Hiring a freelance writer to create your copy is easy: just give them a few topics to work from and enough information to help them capture your voice. Bingo! A 500-word blog post. No more trying to be pithy and punchy in your kitchen at 2am.
If your website is your main customer-facing platform, you need web analytics to make sure it's doing the best job possible. But it's way too easy to get sucked in. Nicotine, alcohol, Candy Crush… compared to the addictive and hypnotic glow of the Google Analytics dashboard, they got nothing. Outsource it, read the top-line report and free yourself from this time-zapping peril. Similarly, buying and optimising keywords on Google, Bing and Yahoo has become a complicated science with ever-morphing algorithms. Get an SEO expert to keep an eye on your clicks and conversion rates for you.
Managing a social media campaign is a 24-hour, rapid-response activity, and as the leader of your business, you just don't have the availability. By all means, check in on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn every now and then, but delegate the day-to-day campaign stuff to a freelancer who can dedicate himself or herself to making your business a social media success.
How many hours a week do you spend on basic admin tasks such as data entry, research, database management, transcribing, planning events or organising travel? It's blatant misuse of your most valuable business resource (yes, that's you!). You'll find thousands of freelance virtual assistants online with a good broadband connection and a typing speed way faster than yours. Get one.
