(recasts, clarifying import duty level in third paragraph)
DUSSELDORF (ICIS)--Changes in import duties to Europe due to take effect from 1 January 2014 could impact polymer trade flows, market participants said at the K2013 plastics fair on Friday.
From the beginning of next year, certain Middle East countries including Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait will no longer benefit from the Generalised Scheme of Preferences, which allows developing countries to pay lower duties when exporting to Europe.
"In 2014 there'll be a 6% import duty to Europe," a Middle East polypropylene (PP) producer said, referring to the 1 January rise to 6.5% from 3%
When asked whether this would deter producers in the region from selling to Europe, the source said it might.
"[Middle East] producers will send more to Africa," the source said. "Latin America and Africa are good opportunities [to sell to]."
A polyethylene (PE) and PP producer said: "There's an increase of import duties for Europe in January. It will make [Middle East] producers think twice [about selling to Europe]."

Family-Style or Pre-Plated Meals: Which Are Better?
Have you ever given much thought to which style of serving meals might be best for your kids when it comes to their nutrition and overall health? Growing up, I remember being served food pre-plated. I was always allowed to take more if I was still hungry—and I usually did! I have continued with this tradition with my own sons who are now ages 15 and 12.
At breakfast and dinner, I pre-plate my kids' food with an amount I think each of them will eat based on their age and stage. Sometimes they eat everything on their plates, and sometimes they leave food over. Either way, if they finish their meal and want more of something—whether that's more milk at breakfast or some dessert after dinner—they're allowed to help themselves.
Although I'll serve food family-style during holidays and when we entertain friends or family, I find a pre-plated style of feeding typically works best for my family, especially on nights when we can't eat dinner together because of conflicting after-school schedules. Sometimes simply heating up a fresh meal that's been pre-plated and refrigerated can streamline the process of getting my kids fed. Fortunately, both of my sons eat pretty well, seldom overeat and are at healthy body weights.
Although pre-plating works for my family, many experts suggest a family-style approach to eating may be a better and more empowering way to feed growing children and prevent obesity—especially the 12 million U.S. preschool children in child care programs. In a study published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, University of Illinois researchers surveyed 118 child-care providers who work at Head Start, Adult Care Food Program [CACFP] and other programs about their feeding practices for 2- to 5-year old children. Researchers found that while most who worked at Head Start met the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics' recommendation to serve foods and beverages family-style—where children select their own portions and serve themselves—most CACFP (66%) and non-CACFP (93%) providers did not.
In the study, the researchers note that serving meals family-style gives children control over the type and amount of food on their plates and helps them self-regulate their energy intakes they learn to put the right amount of food on their plate based on their internal hunger and satiety signals. They also suggest that a family-style approach to feeding increases the ability of teachers to model healthy eating compared with pre-plated service. And because there's evidence that eating behaviors are already established by school age, the researchers underscore how important it is for adults to help children establish healthy habits during their preschool years.
According to Linda C. Whitehead, Ph.D., Vice President of Education and Development at Bright Horizons Family Solutions, "Family-style dining allows teachers and children to enjoy a meal together in a calm, respectful atmosphere. The table is typically set with child-size plates, cups, and serving bowls. Children are encouraged to not only help set the table, but to serve themselves, pass dishes to their friends and clean up afterwards." When asked about the benefits of family-style dining, Whitehead says, "The relaxed atmosphere encourages rich conversation and social interactions. Children learn appropriate behaviors, such as turn taking and using words, such as "please" and "thank you." It also boosts self-confidence and independence, teaches children mathematical concepts, such as less, more, half, and full and builds fine motor skills."
In their book, Fearless Feeding, Maryann Jacobsen and Jill Castle—both registered dietitians—say that family-style feeding is an authoritative and effective way to help children eat better. As stated in their book, "Family-style meals not only shift the control to your child, but also capitalize on skill development and success."
To help serve kids family-style, the authors recommend preparing foods in appropriate serving sizes and placing them on platters or in bowls; cutting foods like chicken breasts into 3-ounce portions; offering small potatoes; using 8-ounce glasses for milk; and using half-cup serving spoons to dish out grains, vegetables and fruits. The authors also discourage parents from using the meal table to discuss topics related to nutrition, eating, and food. They say, "Frankly, it can feel like too much pressure, especially if your child is picky or overweight." They recommend keeping conversation topics light, fun, and entertaining so that the meal table can be a place your children enjoy. Sounds great to me!
If there's any real downside to making family meals family-style, it might be the inevitable mess kids make when serving themselves. We all know how that goes! Whitehead suggests keeping the atmosphere positive and to see spills and messes as learning opportunities rather than frustrations. "Keeping paper towels close at hand and allowing children to help clean up never hurts," she says.

McCALL, Idaho -- Police in McCall are asking for the public's help in identifying two men who went to the Paul's Market in McCall on July 22 and passed a counterfeit payroll check. Both men posed as employees of a local business.
The suspects were caught on surveillance camera video and police released several photos to the media Wednesday.
The first suspect is a white male, around 5-foot-8 to 5-foot-11, with brown hair and a slender build. He was wearing a dark blue or black long sleeve shirt, shorts and a dark blue baseball cap that had a white front with multiple colored letters.
The second suspect is a white male, around 5-foot-8 to 5-foot-11 with brown hair and a heavier build. He was wearing a white T-shirt that has very distinct blue vine type pattern on the left side. The right side of the shirt has vertical lettering. He wore a straw cowboy hat and white or light gray sunglasses. And he has extensive sleeve tattoos on both his right and left arms.
Investigators say the suspects are driving a light brown or gold colored SUV, possibly a Suburban, Tahoe, or Yukon.
This is not the first time they have committed this crime. The suspects also passed counterfeit checks in Weiser, Homedale, and Marsing. At each location they were seen wearing the same clothing and posing as employees of local businesses.
Any with information about the suspects or their whereabouts is urged to call the McCall Police Department at 208-634-7144. You can remain anonymous.

This is for Samohlic, they asked for a April fool's day story and here it is this will be two chapters because I wrote a lot.
Also I worked on the Punctuation for Stephanie-BB-Jisbon-Caskett
April Fool's Day, please make it stop
Prank #1 [ Spike's]
Spike was pouring the vegetable oil on the floor of the SRU hallway.
Not slippery enough he decided and dumped the rest of the bottle on the floor.
"Morning Commander Holleran" Spike said breaking into a up to no good grin
Holleran stopped that grin was kind of a creepy
Then Holleran remembered that today was April fool's day.
Lord help me Holleran thought
Today sound quite scary
Especially if all of team one turned out to be like Spike today.
Holleran stepped forward carefully
Holleran could already feel his feet slipping out from under him.
Oh no, please no Holleran thought as he fell.
" OFFICER SCARLATTI" Holleran yelled
But Spike was already gone
Grumbling Holleran got up and continued on to his office.
Prank #2 [ Also Spike's]
Greg put his foot in his boot.
There was something warm and furry in there.
Greg shouted and threw the boot at the wall hard.
A mouse scuttled out
Greg advanced on the mouse
But Spike scooped up the mouse.
" your not killing Lillian" Spike said stroking the mouse.
Sam walks in
" SPIKE WHY ARE YOU JUST HOLDING THAT MOUSE, SHOOT IT" Sam shouted
" My point exactly" Greg stated
" No its my pet" Spike said stubbornly
" But it's a mouse" Greg said stressing the word mouse
" Lillian can't help being a mouse" Spike said
" He named the mouse" Sam muttered
Ed and Wordy walked in
" Please convince Spike that you and me should get our sniper rifles," and kill his pet mouse" Sam said
" her name is Lillian" Spike said
" I DON'T GIVE A damn WHAT HER NAME IS" Sam shouted
"Spike you can get another mouse let me and Sam take care of it" Greg coaxed
" wait why do we want to kill the mouse?" Wordy said
" Lillian" Spike corrected
" Whatever its name is, it doesn't matter" Ed shouted
" the mouse" Greg started
" Lillian" Spike corrected
" SHUT UP ABOUT YOUR STUPID MOUSE" Sam yelled
" Lillian" Greg continued
" was in my boot when I put my foot in", So I threw it at the wall" Greg said
" explains the scuff on the wall " Wordy Said
" then the mouse…. Sorry Lillian came out and well you know the rest" Greg finshed
Winnie reports Time one
There was a hesitant knock on the door.
" come in" Holleran said
"Hello Winnie what can I do for you" Holleran said
" Well …. Um" Winnie started
" does it have anything to do with team one and April 1st"
Winnie nodded her head
" so far they are just yelling about harming pet mice and boots" Winnie said
" tell them that they are to run drills today", "and Winnie keep me posted" said Holleran
Drills and Prank # 3{ Wordy and Sam's}
" lets get going running laps, full gear" Greg told them
Sam and Wordy exchanged a look.
This would work if they timed it just right.
Sam went to the middle of the group and Wordy went to the front of the group.
This better be worth the three hours it took to switch the team's Kevlar vests with frosting in them instead. They thought
Wordy abruptly stopped and put his foot out.
Sam copied Wordy
They all went down with loud splats.
Ed, Greg, Jules and Spike we're covered in vanilla frosting.
While Wordy and Sam were howling with laughter at the team's surprised looks.
" you pranked us" Spike complained
" its April fool's Day" Wordy started
" and your all fair game " Sam finished
" thank you Wordsworth, Braddock I've always wanted to be a cupcake" Ed deadpanned
" all right that's enough, head to the showers" said Greg
" can't we have lunch first?" Spike whined
" well who wants to have lunch first?" Asked Greg
They all raised their hands
Ed hid a smile, oh yes they were going to pay.
Wow that was a lot of typing and that's just chapter one
The next chapter should be up Friday night or Saturday morning.

Hi Mike , Id just go for it . Your probably going to sick to the ICW for most of the trip, I imagine . So if your not set on buying parts and pieces in CT , I would just say heck with it and go . There are plenty of places to pick up what your going to need as you head down the ditch .
Besides until you start moving the boat its unlikely that youll find out what she needs . IMHO and experience boats never break at the dock its allways when your underway . Thats when the gremlins wake up . Its probably the best way to give the boat a good shakedown before you jump outside and give her some blue water.
So if thats your plan (ICW till your happy with the boat) I say go for it .
BTW Tartan will most likely be my next cruiser although I have never owned one the reputation preceeds itself . Great choice . Have fun with your new toy and get a Tow boat deal from one of the big outfits before you head out.
best of luck with it
Its hard trying to nap with that bilge pump alarm going off all the time

eBook Category: Erotica/Gay-Lesbian Erotica/Romance
eBook Description: Australian adventurer Adam Yager arrives in Athens for a conference and meets a colleague from the past: Dmitri Pryce, a brilliant archaeologist, a charming individual, and a beautiful man. Adam has never found a man beautiful before, not like this, and between remembrances of the dig in Tanzania four years ago and talk of more recent work, Adam does his best to keep his arousal hidden? until he blurts out his admiration for the way Dmitri says the word "ass." And once Adam's said it out loud, it's too late to take it back. Dmitri remembers lusting after Adam four years ago with painful clarity, but he made himself get over his crush and accept Adam's friendship at face value. Now, as a documentary of the dig they both worked on is about to be released to the public, Adam clearly wants more, but Dmitri believes their opportunity to have passed. Except Adam is unwilling to miss this once in a lifetime chance to really get to know Dmitri and explore the passion they both feel.

Chapter 1
Chapter 1
Athens, Greece
Last Week
Adam's eyes were dark brown in the mirror, almost black--the same color as the magnetite deposit he'd found in Peru the month before--dark and wide, with slight bluish smudges under them. That distinctive flaw was only temporary. It always happened when he flew across several time zones at once. The under-eye circles were proof that there'd been no body-switching nightmare. He was in the men's room of the first class lounge of an airport east of Athens, and he was Adam Yager--photographer, amateur archaeologist, and semi-famous Australian adventurer. Semi-famous in certain circles, which weren't huge circles, but he would have recognized the reflection anywhere. That was him in the mirror, that sort of handsome guy, the one who was sporting his biggest erection of the past decade. The erection, as far as he could tell, was the result of running into an old friend, not even a friend--a past colleague--and a young man at that. It was so inappropriate and so embarrassing, he'd ducked in here to make sure there had been no body snatching or possession going on, because really, getting hard from hugging Dmitri Pryce was that inappropriate.
Adam didn't look any different. His hair had grown longer, a little wild from months of working and living at remote sites and not caring what he looked like. Maybe it was starting to turn lighter at his temples, a bit of distinguished gray, but that didn't make him a different person. The top of his reflection's hair was cut off because the mirrors were meant for shorter people. That was reassuring. He had not shrunk, nor had the world grown. Those were his broad shoulders, and that was his plain blue shirt, he recognized it, stretching across a chest that looked too big for off the rack shirts, but he couldn't help that either; that was the way he was. "That's me. In the mirror, it's me," he said aloud. Not loud enough that anyone outside would hear, but he had to say it to further reassure himself. "Those are my eyes and my hair and my body. It's me, not some weird guy who gets off on hugging his guy friends."
He wasn't actively getting off. He was wishing he was getting off, because along with his hair and eyes and body in the mirror, there was that massive erection, hidden when he tugged the shirt down over his crotch but there, and not going anywhere.
All because a beautiful young man had hugged him.
But no, it wasn't only because a beautiful young man had hugged him. Dmitri was more than merely beautiful. He was beautiful by all known standards, including the ones by which people tend to judge art, sculpture from the classical period, and nature. More beautiful than Adam had ever found a man before, which wasn't saying much, since Adam normally did not think "beauty" and "men" in the same thought, but Adam wasn't thinking it as an excuse, and he wasn't thinking it just to be nice, either. Dmitri really was uncannily beautiful.
Except Adam did not find any men beautiful. Honestly.
Maybe it was a result of the physical contact. Adam hadn't had much physical contact for the past eight months or so. Not in the past two years, strictly speaking, if by "physical contact" one meant "sexual contact," which was what Adam meant. It had been eight months since the finalization of the divorce, but Adam was an old-fashioned kind of guy, so he'd thrown himself into his work back when the official separation began, not feeling comfortable with the idea of falling in love while still technically married to someone else. He had succeeded admirably, not only by not falling in love; he hadn't even been attracted to anyone. That might be explained by the nature of his companions since the separations. For the most part, they were men like him, rugged and macho, or nerdy scientists, or downright scary eccentrics. None of them had been his cup of tea, especially given that his cup of tea, up until five minutes ago, had been women like his ex-wife--cute, usually blond, smart but not nerdy, maybe a little tomboyish or even athletic. But he liked them with curves, busty and very womanly. He liked women who liked lace and stockings as well as camping and biking. Brooke had played volleyball in college, and she'd paid for her tuition by modeling. That was the sort of woman he liked, not the sort he would likely run into on an archaeological dig in a remote and inhospitable location. Not the sort he would meet while working. So he'd thrown himself into his work after the split.
To be honest, Adam had always thrown himself into his work, no matter how things were going, something that probably hadn't helped the marriage in the first place. It was tough enough to make a relationship succeed without all that traveling and time apart. To be even more honest, the sexual contact had been sparse since long before the legal separation.
"I'm wasting myself," Adam said to his reflection. He was startled by his voice, as he was not ordinarily the sort of person to talk to himself, but not surprised by the words. They were truthful. He was in the prime of his life, thirty-six years old, in peak condition. He should be out there, circulating, meeting people, and getting laid. Instead, he'd spent the past three weeks in the Arctic doing a photo shoot on the reproduction of a seventeenth-century whaling craft, and the month before that on a mountain in Peru, and the six weeks before that underwater in a cave in Romania. He had no idea what had got into him, traveling so much when what he should have been doing was going out and meeting people--meeting women.
The other truth would have been harder, or maybe just stranger, to admit. He didn't particularly miss meeting women. His conscious mind would have insisted that he missed the feminine influence in his life very much, and had no desire at all for the masculine. Yet there was the insistent erection, telling him otherwise. But he wasn't quite at the point of admitting that yet. Not out loud, not even in his head.
Instead, he rationalized. Maybe it was the airplane, something to do with the pressure changes. That was it. It was the pressurized cabin and then coming out into the unpressurized atmosphere. It was basic hydraulics theory; the penis is nothing but a pump. Except he'd flown hundreds of times in the past, and never suffered from that particular side effect. Besides that, he'd been on a commercial aircraft in (one of the perks of being associated with a Hollywood film company) the first class cabin. It had been an excellent flight without even a hint of turbulence, and there was no way a respected international airline would risk messing up the pressurization. Besides, if it had been the cabin pressure, every bloke on the flight would have disembarked with a chubby. Adam hadn't noticed anyone else walking funny.
But then, he hadn't had time to notice much. He'd been barely two steps into the lounge when he'd been nearly bowled over by 150-odd pounds of freakishily beautiful British archaeologist.
"Face facts, mate," he told his reflection. "You're hiding in the airport bathroom with an erection the size of...." Actually, size didn't matter. The very existence of it was the problem.
There had to be some other explanation. It could not possibly be the fault of Dmitri, because Adam simply did not like other men. Maybe it was because so many of Dmitri's attractive qualities were, or could be construed as, feminine--the long hair, the smooth face, the slender body, the softness of his lips.
Adam didn't actually know if Dmitri's lips were soft or not. He was extrapolating from all the other features, features that had changed since the last time he saw Dmitri. At least the hair had changed. Back on the archaeological dig in Tanzania, everyone had been shorn to the scalp. There'd been a breakout of some kind of killer head lice in the camp, so as soon as he'd stepped out of the truck Adam had been ushered into a tent where his hair had been lopped off and he'd been issued a foul-smelling powder to treat his gear. Everyone on the team, even the women, had looked like fresh army recruits. Dmitri had been practically bald just like everyone else back then, so Adam had not known that Dmitri's hair was so stunning.
Not that Adam found other men's hair stunning. Not at all. No, he'd just been surprised, that's all. Dmitri hurtling at him out of the blue like that, and him getting a face full of long hair that smelled like honey.
That was it! The smell must have provoked a sense memory. It was the smell of Dmitri's hair that had put him in this state. Humans are funny animals. They react in purely instinctive ways to scents, colors, sounds, the most primal stimuli. That's the brain stem at work.
That was a relief. Now that the problem was solved, the best way to deal with the state, involuntary and brain-oriented as it was, was to change it. "Just a fluke. Nothing to take seriously," he said to his reflection.
His reflection did not look convinced.
Adam thought of all things unsexy and miserable and not conducive to erections. Freezing cold water. Insect bites. Having the flu.
When that didn't work, he chided himself. Come on, you're still a young, fit man. It's not like you don't get random erections anymore. Get over it, he tried to reason, to no greater success. It was the stubborn sort of erection.
That was how Adam ended up in the end stall, with his hand on his hard dick and his eyes shut tight as he tried to think of something, anything, that would help him bring himself off, anything that did not involve Dmitri and his slender body that, now that Adam had his cock out and defenses down, had felt so damn good when it slammed into Adam. He thought of anything but Dmitri and his smooth face and his long, honey-scented hair. When he found himself incapable of conjuring anything useful, he tried to convince himself this was a purely mechanical exercise, the purpose of which was to stimulate himself to the point of a purely mechanical orgasm. Physics, nothing more. Apply pressure and succeed.
Of course, that was when Dmitri walked in.
"Ah, is everything okay, Adam?" he called.
Adam muttered an affirmative through gritted teeth.
"You don't sound okay."
"Fine. Give me a minute."
"Okay. I'll wait in the lounge. I figured we could share a taxi to the hotel."
That did it. Adam summoned the fortitude to wait the few seconds it took for Dmitri to leave, but as soon as he heard the door close he bit back a groan and squeezed hard.
It would be a long ride. He'd driven it once himself. There were almost twenty miles of roads that wound up and down through the mountains, and Dmitri would be thrown against him half a dozen times as the cab doubled back on its route and the road twisted perilously. It was nearly noon, and the rising heat would make the small space--and Adam knew it would be small because when you were his size, anything short of a stretch limo was automatically small--even smaller. There were no excuses, no justifications now; it was the thought of sharing a cab with Dmitri and his slender body and honey-scented hair that gave Adam the release he'd been seeking.
The tail end of Adam's orgasm was interrupted by the buzz of his cell phone signifying a message from his oldest friend, Kirk Sweeger: "The hotel's great. Where the hell are you? I'm in 604. Call me as soon as you get in. I'm still cramped from my flight. Let's go for a run."
A run might clear his head.
"You look pasty, dude. The Arctic does not agree with your complexion."
"You've lost a bit of your surfer tan yourself, Sweeger," Adam said, adjusting his stride to compensate for the upward slope. "Little too much time in the editing suite?"
Kirk groaned. "You have no idea what goes into finishing a full-length film. Hell, I had no idea until two weeks ago. This is the most daylight I've seen in months."
The exercise was starting to clear Adam's head. He'd practically raced from the cab to his room, dumped his bags, and met Kirk in the lobby a scant ten minutes later. Now he ran, feet pounding on the road, air rushing into his lungs, the sun on his face. It was exactly what he needed. When they got back to the hotel, he planned on doing push-ups until he hurt like hell, and taking a long, hot, hot shower, and maybe--no, definitely --wanking. If he still wasn't set right, he'd beat himself with a willow branch or whatever the fuck those monks used to do to tamp down their lust.
"You okay, Adam? You look really tense."
"Jet lag." He was back to blaming his condition on the journey from northern Canada to southern Greece. It sounded plausible to him.
It never ceased to amaze him, what the act of flying could do to you. Other than the dark circles under his eyes, nothing else was predictable. One time he might be tired, the next energized. Every flight was different. He'd thrown up the first time he flew through a thunderstorm. The next time, he'd laughed. He remembered his first helicopter flight vividly--the swirling sand, the tilt of the deck, the shadow of the blades on the desert floor, and his inability to focus on anything. That was over a decade ago. Absolute waste of film, it had been, but that's why the pilot had insisted on the test run the day before the actual assignment. The next morning, when those motorcycles came up over the ridge, Adam had been ready for them, and his shots of the Dakar Rally had won him the cover of Adventure Vistas magazine.
Contacts are everything in aviation, and Adam had Kirk's dad to thank for the helicopter ride. It never hurts to have a best friend who grew up an Air Force brat. Two phone calls and a bottle of obscenely expensive single malt had been enough to secure the services of the helicopter pilot, along with a promise to "give old Captain Sweeger a kick in the pants next time you see him, kid." While Adam had not brought himself to follow the instructions to the letter, he had passed on the sentiment.
Back when Kirk's dad was stationed in Arizona, the Sweegers lived right across the street from a cousin on the American side of Adam's family. On holiday, Adam had met Kirk and the two seven-year-olds had hit it off instantly, taking off for long hikes exploring the cliffs beyond the tract housing. Adam didn't visit those particular relatives again, but he stayed with Kirk's family many times over the years, in three different states, and once in South Korea. Kirk had traveled to Australia solo when he was thirteen and stayed with Adam's family for two months. Kirk had grown one and a half inches that summer, and Adam had shot up a full two--the marks were still there on the kitchen door jamb.
Kirk owned his own house now, close to Berkeley, full of all the things Adam did not have--great wife, great kids, even a dog--and Kirk had actually been staying in town to enjoy it for the longest stretch since undergraduate school, although the overtime was killing him. "I haven't missed a class yet, but the head of my department is furious," Kirk complained. "He says I make it to more staff meetings when I'm gallivanting around the world than when I'm in post-production. The old fart actually said 'gallivanting'. Can you believe it?"
"Oh, for the good old days of digging up medieval corpses, right?"
"That was easier than making a movie. Thing is, the university is going to get more publicity out of this than they did from that gaggle of monks I found. They just don't know it yet. They've never had an assistant professor make a film with a budget this big before."
"You'd be a full prof by now if you quit the documentary business and concentrated on the university," Adam teased.
"And you might have a lousy undergrad degree if you could stay in one place long enough to attend classes."
"Bit late for that, isn't it?" Adam was definitely too old for college. He was sure of it.
"At least you'd stand a chance of getting some. Man, I have never seen you so uptight, not even when you were still married to Lara. You've been freezing your balls off at the North Pole for too long, dude. You need to get laid."
"Funny." Adam picked up the pace a bit. Maybe it would shut Kirk up.
It wasn't funny at all. The cab ride to the hotel had been exactly as frustrating as Adam had predicted, hot and sweaty and cramped. Adam had pressed himself against the door as best he could so he'd only made contact with Dmitri a few times. Seven times. Adam had counted. Most of it was thigh contact--not something Adam had thought was arousing with guys but, as he'd discovered earlier, Dmitri was not other guys. The awkwardness of that had been compounded by the shit state of the taxi's muffler, which had made even small talk impossible. They'd barely been able to get caught up, so Dmitri had insisted on a late dinner tonight, after the cocktail party.
What Adam really needed was another jerk-off session, but time was short. He wouldn't have time before the cocktail party meet-and-greet that evening. He had to go to that because he was one of the presenters. It was a big deal to take part in a World Society of Archaeology conference. The four days were crammed full of seminars and lectures and demonstrations, during which Adam was scheduled to deliver his first-ever paper, a report on techniques used to access difficult sites, but he had not counted on running into Dmitri Pryce like that. He'd known he would see Dmitri--he'd even been looking forward to seeing him--but there had been no way to anticipate the response from his body.
Now he had to finish this run, clean up at the hotel, muddle his way through the cocktail party and get through dinner with Dmitri, so he did not, in fact, have time to do jerk off, let alone do everything he needed to do. He would have to choose between the push-ups and the self-flagellation, so the run was going to have to do the lion's share of curing whatever was ailing him.
It was working. The smell of honey was almost gone. Adam was breathing hard, and his thighs were starting to burn. It was cleansing. Good old-fashioned physical exercise would get rid of all that pent-up sexual energy eventually.
Kirk was panting. "It's too hot for this kind of exertion. What the hell are you thinking?"
Adam was trying to think of anything but Dmitri.
"Slow down... you know as well as I... you should always be able... to hold a conversation...."
Adam slowed his pace to only mildly torturous. "So talk."
"This movie is going to be a hit." Kirk wiped the sweat from his eyes. "I might make enough money to pay off my house."
Adam hoped the movie would be a success. Kirk had put four years of his life into it. He nodded his agreement, or encouragement.
"The studio sent all kinds of staff and support. It's going to be awesome. I saw Dmitri in the lobby. He looks great, doesn't he?"
Yeah, Dmitri looked great. That had already been established, and was on the forbidden topics list. "Why would anyone care about that?" Adam tried to sound uninterested.
"He's my star," Kirk said. "You can't have a hit without a star."
"It's a documentary. It's about archaeology."
"Yeah, but Dmitri's going to get attention. Make it sell. Same as you are."
"Get out. I'm hardly in your damn movie." Adam blinked the sweat out of his eyes.
"You ended up in more than I planned." Kirk's breathing was growing harsher. "Didn't you get my e-mails about that?"
"I haven't had reliable internet for months." Adam tried to pull ahead, but Kirk was persistent, and not as out of shape as he liked to pretend.
"I can't believe it... you didn't read the e-mails."
"I read the personal ones. Elly got a promotion, Greg lost his first tooth, Shane turned three. Right?"
"Really?" Adam ignored the cramps in his calves. "Guess I've been away a long time."
"And you...." Kirk gasped for air but still managed to keep up. He must have been biking to work lately. "You better get yourself cleaned up.... There's going to be a movie premiere.... last night of the conference, and you... my friend," Kirk said, pink in the face. He grimaced. "You're going to walk the red carpet."
"Red what?"
"This is ridiculous--we're going to kill ourselves!" Kirk grabbed Adam's arm and yanked him to a halt.
Adam took a deep breath and allowed himself to feel the stitch in his side. Sweat soaked his shirt to his skin, which prickled uncomfortably. He savored the discomfort. He savored anything that did not lead to thoughts of sex. "You're the one who said he needed the run," Adam gasped.
"I meant a leisurely jog by the marina, not a full-on run up a fucking mountain. What the hell is wrong with you?"
Adam shrugged. He wasn't going to admit to anything.
"Look, about this red carpet thing. I know you've been away for a while, but get it together, man. You can be as rugged and Grizzly Adams as you want when you deliver your paper--I don't really care--but come Friday and that movie premiere, I need you in a tux and all Indiana Jones-like. Good Indiana Jones, not like you just crawled out of a hole in the ground. You and Dmitri both."
"And who exactly are you dressing us up to impress?" Adam put his hands on his knees and concentrated on slowing his heartbeat.
Kirk sat on a concrete curb and massaged his calf. "The young adult demographic, dude. They're the key to movie success, even documentaries. And mothers, of course."
"Sure. Dmitri brings in the younger crowd, and you bring in the mothers who want to take their kids to something educational."
"And just how do I bring in the mothers?"
"I told you--by being all Indiana Jones-like."
"You're talking like a movie producer, not an archaeologist. And not like my mate Kirk. Come on, where'd you hide the body, you pod person?" Adam poked Kirk in the ribs. That movie had scared the crap out of him and Kirk when they were eleven, and Adam really was beginning to wonder what had happened to his laid-back friend.
"Adam, I'm telling you, it's all about the money. I sell the movie, and I don't have to kiss ass to get grants anymore. You sell the movie and your fees double. Triple! I know it's not your thing, but just pretend to be a highly attractive movie star, okay? Then we can all go back to being us."
Maybe Adam could shave or something, but he wasn't so sure about the tux.
"Someone from the studio will take care of the tux rental," Kirk added.
Well, okay, then. All Adam had to do was sit back and look pretty.

Pelini says Nebraska not a 'steppingstone job'
LINCOLN, Neb. Bo Pelini is heading into his third year at Nebraska. Based on his track record, that means it must be about time for him to move again.
The only place Pelini plans to go is to the Big Ten in 2011, and he's taking his Cornhuskers with him.
Forget that for now. Pelini's got big plans for the Huskers' last go-round in the Big 12.
They won six of their last seven last season, came within a second of knocking off Texas in the Big 12 championship game and are favored to win the North Division again this year.
They'll start the season No. 8 in The Associated Press Top 25 poll, their highest preseason ranking since 2001, and some pundits are giving them an outside shot of playing for the national title.
The 42-year-old Pelini has never held a job for more than three years, and he rightly pointed out that as an assistant he wasn't in control of his job security. Still, he likes to joke that the best explanation for his work history is that he's not always the easiest guy to get along with.
"I don't know if anyone wants me around more than three years," he said.
Given how Pelini has returned Nebraska to national relevance so fast, the fans are more than willing to put up with Pelini's cantankerous side. They consider him a godsend after Bill Callahan struggled.
Pelini's quick resuscitation of the Huskers has landed him on the short list of hot coaches, a fact he reluctantly acknowledges.
Another big year, and Pelini could be mentioned for prominent job openings. But he said if he does his job right at Nebraska, he could see himself staying in Lincoln for a long time.
"I don't think Nebraska is a steppingstone job," he said. "It's a great job. You have all the things necessary to win. We have a great athletic director, we have great support. I love my staff. I'm happy.
"Am I going to say you would never ever look or talk to somebody? That's crazy to make an ultimatum like that. But we're not looking."
Pelini has had seven jobs since getting his start as an assistant secondary coach with the San Francisco 49ers.
Pelini, who was Frank Solich's defensive coordinator at Nebraska in 2003, returned to the Cornhuskers for his first head coaching job after LSU's national championship season in 2007.
With Ndamukong Suh in the middle, Pelini shored up a Nebraska defense that went from 112th nationally in 2007 to seventh last year.
Pelini's first team went 9-4 - a four-win improvement over Callahan's 5-7 mark in 2007 - and shared the division title with Missouri and beat Clemson in the Gator Bowl.
The Huskers took it up a notch last season, going 10-4 with wins in six of the last seven games. The only loss in that stretch was the gut-wrenching 13-12 defeat to Texas in the Big 12 championship game.
Nebraska closed out the year with Suh being honored as the AP national player of the year and a Heisman Trophy finalist, not to mention a 33-0 rout of Arizona in the Holiday Bowl.


text: Some of the chemicals in the official E-6 formulation are just about impossible to get. Many years ago, the Dignan Newsletter published several substitute formulas, and others have been published since. But these are of questionable quality. Some people reported good results, others did not. And there is no assurance that the images will last as well as those processed with the official recipes. Experimenting with home brewed color chemistry may be fun and interesting, but it comes with no guarantees. The Kodak kits are easy to mix up in any amount you want, and they are quite economical. That seems to be the way to go.

Looking today at week-over-week shares outstanding changes among the universe of ETFs covered at ETF Channel, one standout is the Guggenheim Solar ETF (TAN) where we have detected an approximate $38.9 million dollar inflow -- that's a 7.6% increase week over week in outstanding units (from 10,488,000 to 11,288,000).
Click here to find out which 9 other ETFs had notable inflows »
The chart below shows the one year price performance of TAN, versus its 200 day moving average:
Looking at the chart above, TAN's low point in its 52 week range is $15.00 per share, with $50.28 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $50.25. Comparing the most recent share price to the 200 day moving average can also be a useful technical analysis technique -- learn more about the 200 day moving average ».Exchange traded funds (ETFs) trade just like stocks, but instead of ''shares'' investors are actually buying and selling ''units''. These ''units'' can be traded back and forth just like stocks, but can also be created or destroyed to accommodate investor demand. Each week we monitor the week-over-week change in shares outstanding data, to keep a lookout for those ETFs experiencing notable inflows (many new units created) or outflows (many old units destroyed). Creation of new units will mean the underlying holdings of the ETF need to be purchased, while destruction of units involves selling underlying holdings, so large flows can also impact the individual components held within ETFs.

Running Windows and Linux apps on the same desktop with OVD
Installing More Apps
Although the default set of apps is good for a wide variety of users, it surely doesn't cover all the bases. To install another app, head over to the Servers tab. If you have multiple Linux application servers, find the one you want to install the new app to and click on its FQDN or IP address.
Now you'll see a list of all the apps installed on the server, along with an empty text box under the Install an application from a package name section (Figure 8). To install an app, just type in its name in the text box (say, gqview) and click on the Install button.
To monitor the app installation, click on the Tasks tab, which lists all the active and completed tasks on all the servers. To get the details of a task, click on the ID (Figure 9). When the installation is complete, the app will appear under the list of available applications on the server.
Before users can access this app, you have to include it in an application group. Either edit an existing group or create a new one. That's it. The app is now available to all users in the publication that contains the application group that bundles the app.
Under the Web interface settings tab in the SM admin console, you'll find options for tweaking some aspects of the login screen. For instance, you can modify the heading title, replace the Ulteo logo with your own logo, or disable the drop-down list of users.
Other tweakable parameters that affect the user's virtual desktop are under the Session settings tab (Figure 10). For example, you can preset a default time out, after which a user is automatically logged out. If you want, you can let users use a console inside the virtual desktop or free up space on the desktop by disabling the desktop icons.
By default, Ulteo OVD allows users to share their desktop with other users. For this to work, you need to equip the SM with SMTP settings for your mail server. If you aren't running a mail server, you can also use Gmail's SMTP settings.
Once the settings are in place, users can invite others by using the Share desktop link at the top-right corner of their screen. If you select the Active option (Figure 11), the invited user will be able to take control of your desktop; otherwise, the visitor will be a mere spectator.
Finally, the load balancing policy comes into the picture if you are using multiple application servers. Under the Server settings menu, you can tweak factors, such as available RAM and CPU usage, that help Ulteo OVD balance the workload (Figure 12).
Ulteo's Open Virtual Desktop is the most promising open source interoperability tool to appear for some time. OVD is ideal for anyone who wants to run both Windows and Linux apps from within a unified desktop.

Good treats
posted 6 years ago
Birds love these but they can be a little messy depending on the bird. They are easy to hang, if the bird doesn't try to eat as you are hanging.
Pros: great treat, easy to hang, fits all cages
Cons: messy

Abul Khaer's selfless dedication to his work – recovering the bodies of ferry accident victims – has made him a national hero in Bangladesh, reports SHAFIQ ALAM.
THE scene is etched in Abul Khaer's mind: several thousand villagers line a desolate riverbank, their eyes following his every move as he prepares to plunge into the dark, swirling waters in search of the bodies of their loved ones.
A ferry with at least 100 passengers on board has gone down and the 38-year-old Khaer and an elite team of fire service divers have been called to the scene.
A day after it capsized the ferry is already silted up with tonnes of sand. With every hour the chance of recovering any bodies at all becomes slimmer.
Other divers have decided that the currents are too strong to go down in. The hopes of everyone in the crowd now rest with the slightly-built Khaer.
"Those anxious eyes are difficult to deny," says the soft-spoken diver and firefighter, recalling the scene of last May's tragedy near the town of Aricha in central Bangladesh.
"They expect that the diver with his magic diving suit and oxygen cylinder will somehow find their missing relative. People think we can do miracles but they don't understand that we only have basic equipment and two bare hands to work with."
For more than 15 years Khaer, the son of a Muslim cleric and his country's top diver, has dedicated himself to the sad but essential work of recovering bodies from capsized boats.
In doing so he has made himself a national hero on call for any emergency from fires and ferry disasters to talking down suicides.
Out of his working environment, however, the married father of 15-year-old twins is shy and reticent.
Colleagues see Khaer as nothing short of a miracle worker, though at Aricha even he was defeated by the forces of nature.
"This was the most difficult assignment of my life, I have never experienced anything like it," he says. "These were killer currents, so strong they felt as if they were crushing my limbs and suffocating me.
"I was determined to rescue some bodies but when I tried to go inside the ferry I found it was already silted up. I felt one body near a window so I tied it to my rope. But as soon as I started swimming to the surface the currents hit me with all their force, taking all the sensation from my arms and legs and knocking off my mask."
Khaer, attached to a rescue boat by a rope, was swept hundreds of metres downstream and had to be hauled to safety. Only the rope and the fact that he managed to hang onto his oxygen cylinder saved his life.
Not deterred by the experience, he dived again the following day in a final attempt to attach a salvage rope to the vessel.
"He took the challenge. It was amazing," reacalls fellow fire service diver Chand Mia. "After he dived I told my colleagues, 'That is the end of Khaer'.
"I thought he would end up buried under the sands like all the others – but as usual he came back to tell us with a smile how he'd managed to tie a rope in not just one but two places."
Ferries provide daily transport for an estimated 100,000 people in Bangladesh, mostly the rural poor who have no choice but to travel on the delta nation's network of some 230 rivers.
Accidents claim hundreds of lives a year, mostly needless losses caused by the greed of profit-hungry ferry owners who overload boats or build extra cabins that make them unstable.
Boat owners deny the accusations but experts say the alterations cause ferries that would otherwise not sink to flip over within seconds of hitting rough weather.
After each fresh tragedy, inquiries are announced and new safety regulations promised.
But the accidents continue with predictable regularity as successive governments have found themselves powerless in the face of the powerful boat owners' lobby.
Khaer's selfless dedication and repeated willingness to risk his life has earned him the gratitude of thousands of families.
Always a strong swimmer as a child, he began his career in 1990 after a relative suggested he answer an advertisement for fire department divers, a rare opportunity for someone from a poor rural background.
With a few years' experience under his belt, he was told he could quit the low-paying fire service and earn big money as a commercial diver in one of the Gulf states.
But within months of completing basic diving and firefighter training, Khaer had started to distinguish himself, quickly earning a reputation as a man who would take on any challenge no matter how daunting.
In the same year that he joined, he single-handedly saved the lives of 300 female workers in a factory fire by climbing to the fourth floor where they were trapped and breaking open the windows.
Khaer, however, is characteristically modest about his work.
"I have lost count of the number of bodies I have recovered but it is more than a thousand," he says. "It gives the relatives a certain peace of mind if they can at least bury their dead."
His colleagues have nothing but praise for his tenacity and mental and physical toughness.
"He was absolutely resolved to dive at Aricha, but in the process he almost killed himself," says Nurul Haq, Khaer's trainer and assistant director of Dhaka fire brigade.
"We told him 'don't dive against such a strong current, your limbs will fail, your oxygen cylinder will be washed away and you could die at any moment.'"
"In diving, he is second to none. In firefighting too, he is the best the country has," Haq says.
Despite being their country's finest rescue workers, Khaer and his colleagues work in appalling conditions. Bangladesh is one of the world's poorest countries and scarce resources mean ageing equipment, no health insurance or overtime pay.
"Time and time again I have asked for better equipment but my bosses just say that there is no money for this," says Khaer.
Rivers polluted with raw sewage and industrial waste make the divers vulnerable to disease and infection.
Understaffing and Khaer's desire to recover bodies quickly – so they can be returned to already distressed families in relatively good condition – also mean that he frequently makes repeated dives within a short time.
This puts him at risk of an array of health problems, some potentially fatal, from hearing loss to liver, retina and heart damage.
"Science says that you should not dive for more than an hour a day, yet Khaer dives non-stop," says Lieutenant Commander Mahbubur Rashid of the Bangladesh Navy, who has led more than a dozen rescue operations in which Khaer has played a leading role.
"I remember one accident when Khaer was diving all day and night. At one stage he came up with more than a dozen dead bodies in one go, all tied together with a rope like prayer beads," says his fire service colleague Mia.
"He was relentless and rescued more than 60 dead bodies, more than twice the number the rest of us divers pulled out together.
"Another time during some floods, he dived six hours at a stretch to find the body of a young child. We all gave up hope because the river was flooding and no one was sure where the child had gone down. But Khaer found him."
"The best thing about Khaer is his determination and his risk-taking attitude," adds Haq. "It is always Khaer who puts himself forward. He doesn't think about himself. They say we don't have heroes, but this diver is ours." – AFP

CHAPMANVILLE — Other than the vaunted Wayne Pioneers, the Chapmanville Regional High School football team probably couldn't have asked for a tougher Cardinal Conference team to open the season up with than the Sissonville Indians.
The Tigers also have to open up on the road at Sissonville's place.
Chapmanville and Sissonville are scheduled to kick off the 2014 prep football season with Friday night's contest at the Sissonville High School football field.
Game time between the Cardinal Conference foes is set for 7:30 p.m.
Chapmanville, led by 11th-year head coach George Barker, is trying to break a two-year playoff-less funk after reaching the Class AA post-season every year from 2007-11.
Sissonville, coming off last year's 10-2 season and first-round playoff victory, is trying to keep the momentum going this fall.
The Indians were second place in the conference last year behind champ Wayne, which rolled all the way to the Super Six in Wheeling. Sissonville downed league foe Mingo Central, 46-6, last year in the opening round of the playoffs before falling to the Pioneers, 48-7, in the state quarterfinals.
Sissonville, coached by Eddie Smolder, seems to be a program on the up and up.
After an 0-10 doughnut hole in 2010, the Indians were 2-8 in 2011, 5-5 in 2012 and doubled their win total last year.
The Indians were ranked No. 5 in the state in the MetroNews Preseason Power Index.
The Tigers and the Indians have played each other eight teams over the last eight years since Chapmanville joined the Cardinal Conference.
So far it's an even split with four wins each.
Sissonville, though, has had the upper hand recently, winning 40-22 last year in Chapmanville and also taking a 40-21 win in 2012.
In last year's meeting, the Indians rolled out to a 21-0 lead and used a ball control offense to outgain the Tigers 333-256 in total yardage. Sissonville had 48 rushes for 255 yards for the game to Chapmanville's 122 yards on 32 attempts. The Tigers had just 68 yards and ran only 20 plays by halftime.
Barker said Sissonville is very good again this year and will be tough to beat.
"They have a good, solid football team," he said. "They don't have any weaknesses. They have good quarterbacks, running backs, receivers and offensive linemen. On defense, they are solid all over. That makes for a good football team. In order for us to win we have to take care of the football and keep them out of the end zone."
The Indians lost all-state running back Dominic Walker and starting QB Nathan Miller to graduation.
That's good news for CRHS. Walker scored three TDs last year on the Tigers and Miller threw for 78 yards and a score.
At quarterback, the Indians have sophomore Chance Brown (5-9, 155) and freshman Michael Pinkerton (6-0, 165) battling for the job.
Returning to the Sissonville backfield is junior running back Jared Wilkinson (6-0, 190), who wears a wide receiver-ish number 89.
In last year's opener at Chapmanville, Wilkinson scored on a toss sweep for a 32-yard touchdown.
Chapmanville is led on offense by junior QB Alex Berry and senior tailback Devin Wiley. Berry led the Cardinal Conference in passing last season and was 14-for-21 passing for 134 yards with two TDs and an interception in the Sissonville game last year. Wiley rushed for more than 1,000 yards a year ago.
The Tigers have several returnees on both sides of the ball.
During the preseason, Chapmanville had just one scrimmage — Aug. 16 against Wayne in the Cardinal Conference Gridorama at Scott High School in Madison.
"I thought that we played decent against Wayne," Barker said. "We didn't go in with a game plan, we just wanted to see what our kids could do. I thought physically we played pretty decent against a really good Wayne team. It wasn't like we scrimmaged against somebody that wasn't any good. They are the preseason number one team in the state in our division. I thought that we did decent and we learned some things."
The Tigers were scheduled to scrimmage Lincoln County at home last Friday but the preseason game was cancelled due to heavy rain and thunderstorms.
Some areas along the Tug River and in the West Virginia Coalfields received up to four inches of rain in a matter of three hours, causing mudslides, flooding and power outages.
Barker said Tiger Stadium's grass was completely soaked and there was no reason to play, particularly if it wasn't even going to count.
"Unfortunately, our second scrimmage against Lincoln County got cancelled due to field conditions," Barker said. "Our field was surrounded by water. It wasn't quite as bad here as it was in Ashland, Kentucky, and other places. We looked at it and it was really wet and there was the forecast for more rain and thunderstorms for the rest of the evening, so we went ahead and called it. You just don't get better playing in the mud. We thought it was the best to cancel it."
Barker said it remains to be seen if the cancellation of last week's scrimmage will help or hinder his team.
"Who knows if cancelling it was good or bad. You just don't know," he said. "You just don't know if you needed that scrimmage to get better but overall, we've had a good preseason. Now this week we are getting ready for Sissonville. I think that we will be ready to play."
Tigers news and notes
* Coach Barker said Tristan Gilman, a 6-0, 295-pound senior lineman, was hurt during practice on Monday and his status is questionable for Friday night's opener.
"He hurt his knee but we don't know what his status might be," Barker said. "We've also got some typical bumps and bruises, sore muscles and sore joints and things like that but right now, I don't think that we have anybody out. We'll be realatively healthy going into the first game. Maybe this is an advantage to us that we didn't play that second scrimmage."
* Chapmanville's home opener is in Week 2 against Herbert Hoover. The Hall of Fame Game is Sept. 19 at home against Poca. Homecoming is set for Oct. 10 against Man. Senior Night is Oct. 31 at home against Wayne.
* The Tigers are set to unveil a new look to its helmets this season.
"We may sport a new decal," Barker said. "It's one of a kind. We are keeping our 'C' on one side of the helmets but the other side will be a little bit different."
* Chapmanville's JV team plays 11 a.m. on Labor Day at home against Sissonville.
