Under the lights in New York, should be quite the show. Captain David Wright will lead the way for the home team Mets in the Home Run Derby against American League Captain Robinson Cano. Each player will choose three other teammates to join them in the 2013 Home Run Derby at Citi Field. Without much spoken about who each captain will pick, that doesn't mean there has been no speculation. Chris Davis and Dominic Brown could be good feel-good stories, leading their respective league in homers. Or, the usual suspects could be in play like Miguel Cabrera, Jose Bautista, Prince Fielder and Nelson Cruz. One star, David Ortiz, has already counted himself out.
Without surprise, this year's home run derby at Citi Field sits as the most expensive ticket in recent years, and Primesport has great Home Run Derby tickets available. The average price is $471.41 for Home Run Derby tickets. Here are where the recent years sit in comparison:
- Kansas City, 2012 = $364.42
- Arizona, 2011 = $187.79
- Los Angeles 2010 = $286.20

Atheists, Humanists Protest Inaugural Prayer Service
By - - DCIST, CBN.COM, POLITICS DAILY, THE CHRISTIAN POST, THE WASHINGTON POST
Added: Tue, 04 Jan 2011 00:01:07 UTC
dcist - Eddie Kim
Already several hours into Vincent Gray's first day as mayor, the Secular Coaltion for America is crying 'prayer without representation' over Gray's first inaugural event of today. The group is publicly protesting this morning's ecumenical prayer service for excluding atheists, humanists, agnostics and other non-theists in the event's program.
The service, which included Christian, Jewish, Muslim and Hindu leaders, was entitled "One City Praying Together" and touched upon many of the same "one city" themes brought up in Gray's successful campaign. In addition, D.C. Council chairman-elect Kwame R. Brown, several councilmembers and Police Chief Cathy L. Lanier were in attendance.

Atheists Accuse D.C. Mayor-Elect of Discrimination
An atheist group in Washington, D.C., is protesting that they aren't being invited to take part in a prayer service.
The service is called "One City, Praying Together," the first official event at Mayor-elect Vincent Gray's inauguration on Jan. 2.
Secular Coalition for America complained that it is discriminatory to exclude atheists from a service meant to unite all of D.C.
"We would prefer that a government function such as an inauguration not be entwined with religion," said Amanda Knief, a Humanist Celebrant and government relations manager for SCA.

Atheists Protest to Participate in D.C. Inaugural Prayer Service
The Christian Post - Stephanie Samuel
D.C. secularists plan to protest city Mayor-Elect Vincent Gray's January inaugural prayer service after his transition team resisted attempts to place a humanist celebrant on the interfaith program.
The Secular Coalition for America's Washington D.C. is publicly shaming the mayoral administration for excluding the atheists, humanists, agnostics and other nontheists from its inaugural ecumenical prayer service entitled "One City Praying Together."
Humanist and SCA Government Relations Manager Amanda Knief said the group contacted Gray's team about the guest list and was told it was too late.

Non-theists in the city: Gray off on the wrong foot
The Washington Post - Herb Silverman
An inauguration is a traditional ceremony to mark the beginning of a newly elected leader's term. Such festivities send symbolic messages to the citizenry. You would not think any reasonable politician would want to exclude citizens from participating in this ritual based on race, color, creed, sex, or national origin. But it appears you would be wrong.
I assumed Washington's Mayor-Elect Vincent Gray would oppose discrimination in any form, for any reason. However, he apparently finds it acceptable to discriminate against atheists, agnostics, humanists, and other non-theistic citizens in his city. The mayor's first official inaugural event, on January 2, is scheduled to be an interfaith service entitled "One City ... Praying Together." Nontheists, through the Secular Coalition for America, have asked to be included, but we have been told there is no room for us.
This is wrong on a variety of levels.

text: Galapagos Islands, Ecuador In Galapagos Islands near the coast of Ecuador, at first time was understood the evolution. Charles Darwin (famous scientist) visited the Galapagos Islands in 1835. He spent five weeks watching and collecting plant and animal species. In this small area, he found a wide variety of life forms. After investigating their adaptation to local conditions, formulated the theory of evolution. Finally, in 1859 was released his book, "The emergence of species by natural selection." It still remains as one of the most important books ever written. In the islands there are no predators, but there is still a huge variety of wildlife that inspired Darwin. Human interference is also minimized, because the animals, the birds, it seems, does not pay attention to the visitors. Each species has evolved, adapting to different local conditions. For example, blue-footed booby who lives on the island of North Seymour feed closer to shore, and the Red-footed booby living in the more remote islands, such as the Genovese, eats quite a distance from the sea. These two birds are excellent allied species adapted to their environment, for instance. Well-known Galapagos animal – elephant turtle, which can be seen awkwardly walking around Santa Cruz, the second largest island of the archipelago, highs. Some turtles are so old that maybe them young, watched Darwin himself. A visit to the Galapagos you constantly arise many unique memories of episodes from the life: remember swimming underwater with sea lions, who dives and plays right next to you, and without let-up jumping into the water and out of for a long time when you're already dead, getting off the shore, a multitude of marine iguanas crawling a rock, blue-footed swoop propose ritual, just a few feet from you small sharks tapping into the legs while wading by shore, Sea turtle majestically walking on coral reef edge, and most awesome picture – barramundi whale litter severely breathing out the air.

Explosives, Possibly Dating to 1930s, Found in Sequoia National Park's Crystal Cave--Updated
Some sort of explosives, believed to date to the 1930s, have been found in Sequoia National Park's Crystal Cave. The discovery prompted the cave's closure and evacuation while the National Park Service's regional chief blaster devises a plan to remove them.
Sequoia officials say the explosives were found along the cave's main passageway Thursday afternoon as employees performed their annual cave restoration and cleaning project. The cave long has been a main attraction at Sequoia. In recent years it has attracted 40,000-60,000 visitors during the summer months, the only time of year tours are led.
The Sequoia Natural History Association received a grant from Sierra Nevada Conservancy, an agency of the State of California, to convert the operation of the cave to solar power instead of using generators. The discovery of the abandoned explosives was made while park Cave Specialist Joel Despain was planning a new lighting system for the cave as part of that conversion.
Park staff originally found wires protruding from three holes drilled into the cave walls immediately adjacent to the trail through the cave. One lies between the Junction and Curtain rooms, another in the Organ Room and the third near Marble Hall. Of the three sites, only one was estimated to have a high likelihood of containing live explosives. This hole is above the tour trail in an unlit area and on the other side of protruding rock. The other two sites appear less likely to contain explosives.
Beginning next week park staff will begin attempts to remotely remove the wires and any attached explosives. It is a distinct possibility that the explosives used to develop the cave included nitroglycerin, which becomes unstable over time.
"We sincerely hope to avoid any explosions in the cave," said Ranger Despain, "but it is possible that the safest course of action requires detonation, or that disturbance of the wires may cause detonation."
In preparation for this possibility park staff will install temporary blasting mats and blankets to protect cave formations and features near the three sites.
Park spokeswoman Alexandra Picavet said officials estimated the age of the explosives based on how the wires appeared.
"The wires were coming out and they were cloth-covered, which dates them to pre-1940s," she said this afternoon. "All you can see are wires going into a hole, which is pretty obvious why it's there."
Officials believe the explosives date to the 1930s when Civilian Conservation Corps workers were creating pathways in Crystal Cave.
This weekend the Park Service's regional chief blaster, Dave Karplus, will devise a plan for removing or destroying the explosives.
Is this guy's title actually Chief Blaster?? If it is, that is a seriously awesome job title :)
That is, I'm told, indeed his official title, and it is definitely a cool one. However, "Master Blaster" would be better, no?;-)
Once again our government has thought up a way to spend a lot of money to solve a very simple problem. Today you can run a fiber optic scope down the hole and see what is in there. Back in the Vietnam era we just blew it up! Still the simple solution for Master Blaster. How many educational degrees does it take to figure that one out? That hole was blasted there in the first place. I'm not aware of the exact location of the drill hole (nice picture - hope it will be preserved - hole I mean). CCC work was very important to get us out of the depression and I still admire their work across America.

Social Context for Decision Making: The Presence and Role of Advisors
Jacovina, Matthew Edward
The Graduate School, Stony Brook University: Stony Brook, NY.
Decision makers are often accompanied by other people who have the opportunity to act as advisors, creating a social context for their decisions. My project examined how the presence and role of advisors affect the behavior of decision makers, as well as the future behavior of the advisors. Participants played several rounds of a game based on the Monty Hall dilemma. In this game, Players initially chose one of three doors looking for a prize. Next, the computer eliminated one of the non-chosen doors. Finally, the Player chose to stay with the original door, or to switch to the other door. Mathematically, switching is twice as likely to lead to the prize. Players and Advisors completed 50 trials together and 100 trials apart. In Experiment 1, Advisors either gave advice that Players could see (the Seen condition) or they gave advice that was recorded but kept hidden from Players (the Unseen condition). Advisors in this experiment did not see Players' final responses, though they learned which decision was correct. Solo players acted as a baseline. Both Players and Advisors in the Unseen condition (as well as Solo players) outperformed Players and Advisors in the Seen condition (i.e., they switched more frequently). In Experiment 2, I added two conditions and removed the Unseen condition. In the Transparent condition, Players saw Advisors' recommendations and Advisors saw Players' final responses. In the Replay condition, advisors watched replay data from previous participants for the first 50 trials. Similar to Experiment 1, Players and Advisors in the Unseen condition (as well as the Solo player and Replay conditions) outperformed the Transparent condition. The disadvantages in the Seen and Transparent advice conditions are likely due to a higher social complexity of the social context--for example, Players may wonder whether their Advisors know something they do not, or Advisors may question why Players ignored their advice. For participants in the Unseen condition, however, this social complexity was lower and performance was better. These results demonstrate that decision makers are sensitive to both the presence and role of advisors, and that advisors are similarly sensitive to their role.

Lawmakers in New Hampshire are trying to turn the state a bit greener, with representatives passing a bill in the House that would decriminalize the possession of small amounts of marijuana. [More]
New Hampshire Legislators Vote For Bill That Would Decriminalize Marijuana
Philadelphia Saves $2 Million By Not Prosecuting Pot Smokers
Just over a year ago, the powers that be in Philadelphia effectively decriminalized possession of small amounts of marijuana by offering offenders the chance to enroll in a three-hour class that would expunge the offense from their records. Not only did this give Philadelphia police more time and energy to focus on more serious crimes, it has also saved the city a pretty sizable Ziploc bag of green stuff. [More]
Philadelphia No Longer A Total Buzz Kill For Marijuana Consumers
The city that brought the world the "blunt" has decided to chill out on folks who toke. As of yesterday, possession of 30 grams or less of marijuana has been downgraded to a relatively minor offense. [More]

If anybody can give me some tips or lend a hand and help me knock out a challenge or two I would be extremely grateful. The challenge(s) I'm having the hardest time with are Moving Core, No Towers Allowed, Assault, and Wizardry on the INSANE difficulty. I hate those wizards more than anything, and I'm dying to get those challenge rewards. My psn is the same as my gamefaqs username.
I have a few characters, but my tower squire is the highest level, about 70-71. Any builds or info would be great.
I'm always down to power level, farm, or just pass the time playing the game at any level. Thanks in advance.
Wizardry is definitely a pain. Not the "hardest" but definitely the most annoying challenge to overcome. I can definitely help with these when I'm on, but I play nights and weekends... I got friends who can prolly help knock all of these out though.
Check me out psn s-laughter
I can also help with challenges as well. It seems I've been doing that more for others lately in public games.
Moving Core, I just 'ride' the crystal and destroy everything with my DPS App or Huntress. I rarely setup anything.
No Towers Allowed is a breeze with at least 2 very strong DPS characters (recommended: App or Huntress)
Wizardry, in my opinion, can be what I call 'annoyingly challenging' but I found it's 'easier' (that's saying alot) with a DPS Huntress using a Soul Focuser since it can shoot through walls/floors.
Assault, some argue, is actually 'easy' once you learn a pattern or strategy with it, but there are time where even I screw up and get killed. When that happens, I take my DPS Huntress with my Shai Hulud and mow down everything for a clear line to the crystals.
Again, I can help you if you'd like. I'm by far not the best player out there, but I can hold my own in just about everything, and would be happy to help if you allow me.
I have:
81 (about to be 82) DPS Huntress; 72 Traptress
80 DPS Apprentice; 70 Tower App (about to be deleted)
74 Tower Monk; 74 DPS Monk
74 Tower Squire; 72 DPS Squire

The Indian economy's growth prospects, both actual and potential, have been in the news recently for a variety of reasons. The credibility of the GDP growth figures is crucial to the Budget estimates. All projections, expenditure as well as revenue, will look credible if the GDP growth figures are realistic. Though elementary, these comments are necessary because of certain recent developments.
As Finance Minister P. Chidambaram pointed out in his Budget speech, the Indian economy has witnessed much higher growth than what it seems capable of now. Between 2004 and 2008, and again in 2009-10 and 2010-11, the growth rate was over 8 per cent, and, in fact, crossed 9 per cent in four of those years. The average for the XI Plan was 8 per cent.
The big worry
That, of course, is old story. The economy has visibly slowed down since 2010-11. During the next year, it was 6.2 per cent. The Central Statistics Office's estimate for the current year is 5 per cent. The big worry is whether such sub-optimal growth rates would become the new norm
Barely had Mr. Chidambaram delivered his speech, news came in of a below 5 per cent — 4.5 per cent to be exact — GDP growth during the third quarter (October-December, 2012) of the current fiscal. In the first two quarters of the current fiscal, it was 5.5 per cent and 5.3 per cent, respectively — an average of 5.4 per cent. Simple arithmetic suggests that economic growth during the last quarter (January-March, 2013) should be significantly higher to bring the year's growth rate to something around the RBI's forecast of 5.5 per cent. The pronounced dip in the growth rate has not dissuaded the policymakers from aiming high.
While the Finance Minister hopes that the country has the potential to grow by 8 per cent, a rate which one should strive for, the XII Plan has been much more ambitious.
Implicit in such a claim is that the dip in the third quarter notwithstanding, the economy will, beginning fiscal 2013-14, start climbing back to a higher growth trajectory.
In what now seems to be a highly fanciful exercise, the Planning Commission projected a growth rate of 9-9.5 per cent during the XII Plan (2012-17). Last year, after the National Development Council meeting with State chief ministers, it was lowered to 8.2 per cent, and finally pitched at 8 per cent. The Prime Minister had called this 'aspirational' while some chief ministers had found it lacking in ambition. For those closely watching the trends, an 8 per cent GDP growth rate seems beyond the realm of possibility.
A leap from a 5 per cent rate during the current year (the first year of XII Plan) to an average 8 per cent, a full three percentage point increase, and that on a sustained basis is going to be an incredibly difficult task. The Economic Survey projects next year's growth between 6.1 and 6.7 per cent. (The wide range indicates uncertainty that the statisticians face). So, assuming that the actual rate will be around 6.5 per cent during 2013-14, the second year of the XII Plan, the economy should grow by something like 9.5 per cent during each of the last three years. It is time to be realistic over GDP growth rates. For, it is not some numbers that the policymakers are juggling with but a whole of macro-economic data which are based on growth rates. Growth in tax revenues, for instance, is a function of GDP growth. Practically every major macro-economic indicator correlates with the growth figures.
Two questions are relevant here: Has the economy bottomed out, and Is it possible to aspire for growth rates of 8 per cent or more given the present constraints.
Answer to the first question will depend on not just the growth assumptions coming true but also on other factors such as sustained increase in investments, improvement in consumer spending and so on.
Regarding the second question, aiming for a growth rate of above 9 per cent may stoke inflation because of large constraints such as infrastructure bottlenecks.

Good job on 7-Eleven. Now, about that traffic...
Editor: Dear commissioners: You've made a lot of people happy and relieved over the decision to purchase the San Marco/May Street property from 7-Eleven. I see this as a win-win situation for all of us. Now, if you can just do something about the parking uptown and traffic. What about a few more parking garages, say one behind Lightner Museum as starters?
Barbara and Ronald Wilson have solved their mowing problems quite nicely. They replaced their grassy areas in the front and back yards with pine bark. "My husband never liked mowing lawns," she smiled.
Barbara said when they first had their house built in the Surfwood subdivision 16 years ago, there was nothing growing in the yard.
Now, the plantings scattered throughout the landscape are Florida-friendly ones. These include century plants. One is variegated. In the front yard, near a drive is an evergreen ground cover that Barbara said was "a good 10 years old."
"We've made this our little tropical garden," Rita Saker says of her landscape at Crescent Beach. It's perfect for cookouts and "we can sit and play music by the fire pit," she added. It's also a good place to tell and listen to stories and that's fine with Rita, who is a story teller with the Tale Tellers of St. Augustine.
She spent 30 years as a school teacher and has resided with her family at Crescent Beach for nearly 20 years, coming from South Florida.
At Ace Hardware, U.S. 1 South, you will find volunteers who are willing to help you by answering gardening questions.
Located in the Ace garden section are representatives of the St. Augustine Orchid Society, along with St. Johns County Master Gardeners, and they conduct plant clinics the first Saturday of each month, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Yes, they'll be there today.
Sherry Badger called in late March to tell us she had grown an orchid that had a black bloom. The bloom, actually black with some deep red, is impressive.
And, one orchid grower indicated the Paphiopedilum orchid is rare and could be worth from $200 to $2,000. However, another orchid authority thought those figures were considerably inflated. One thing for sure, it is a beauty. Sometimes called a Lady Slipper orchid, it is native to Asian tropics.
The Garden Club of St. Augustine recently held an open house and plant sale at their Old Moultrie Road facility.
Plant demonstrations were presented and included making a living wreath, planting a butterfly garden and planting a succulent container garden.
Garden Club member Dottie Hudson used peperomia, a variegated leaf plant; mule ear that has yellow blooms; and three succulents, ghost plant, aloe and sedum in her container garden.
Lindsey and Horace "Smitty" Smith wanted to relocate to a place smaller than The Villages and they found their ideal home on Oglethorpe Boulevard where they've been for nearly two years. Having a beach nearby helped in their decision. "This feels like home," Lindsey said.
North Park Avenue resident Richard "Burg" Burgio's "flowering" tree constantly drew attention and comments from passersby, last year. As it turns out, it was not a flowering tree at all.
Several years ago, Burg purchased a couple of vine type plants at a nursery and repotted them into hanging baskets which were hung on limbs of an oak tree to the front of his property. "I wound a couple of vines up into the tree," he recalled. Eventually the plants begin to produce blossoms which gave the appearance the tree was in bloom.
Pedro Menendez High School is an imposing educational facility, home to 1,350 students, just off State Road 206, southwest of the city. To the rear of this property, students in the school's Interact Club — under the guidance of English teacher Michael Arnold — have created an organic garden. Arnold said "we harvest and give to the needy."
The City of St. Augustine Beach celebrated National Arbor Day in grand style once again, April 25, under the direction of the Tree Board and Beautification Committee.
The importance of trees and their part in cleaning our air was echoed by a number of speakers, including Chuck Lippi, arborist, and Greg Dunn, from the Forestry Department, who introduced the ever-popular Smokey Bear.
"It took 20 years to get it to this point," David Christopher laughed when discussing his landscape. Wife, Debbie, pretty much echoed the sentiment: "It's been a lot of hard work."
But, it was well worth it when it all came together. "It was pretty much solid woods," he recalled, with many tall pine trees and some had to be removed. "Lightning kept striking the pines," he said.

Michael and Kate Foley, the angry younger brother and sister of executed journalist James Foley, are breaking their silence and railing against the government for his death at the hands of the terrorist group ISIS, an acronym for the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria.
Though the Obama administration insists operatives carried out a "flawless" operation to rescue James that failed only because they got the location wrong, Michael reveals news of the operation came as a complete surprise.
"I'd like to think that it did happen, but I certainly wasn't aware of it," Michael told Yahoo! Global News anchor, Katie Couric.
COVERAGE: Read The Foley Family's Final Letter From ISIS Organization
He also told Couric that he believes the US government's policy of never negotiating with terrorists needs to be changed.
"I really don't think I should get into this, but the United States could have done more on behalf of the Western and American hostages over there and still dealt with the broader world wide issues," Michael blasted.
"And other nations have done that. And that's been a source of frustration for me," he continued. "I really, really hope that in some way Jim's death pushes us to take another look at our approach, our policy to terrorist and hostage negotiations and rethink that."

The Foleys also slammed ISIS, who kidnapped 40-year-old James while he was on assignment in Syria, for their evil tactics, including recording and then broadcasting his brutal murder on the Internet.
"I don't understand where that much hate can come from in a person," said Kate.
Now the Foley family just wants the release of another American hostage secured before it's too late.

"I really hope that with respect to Steven Sotloff they take some action," said Michael of the U.S. government.
Couric's emotional interview came on the heels of the shocking revelation that the Foleys have viewed the video showing James' beheading.
"We just needed to know," is all John Foley would say of his son's death to reporters gathered at the family's home in Rochester, New Hampshire.

However, he added, they will someday forgive the people who extinguished the life of their son and brother.

Monrovia — The Government of Liberia through President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf has donated Ten Nissan Hard Body Pickups and three Nissan Patrol Jeeps to the Liberia National Police for deployment in the leeward parts of the country.
According to police authorities the donated vehicles will be deployed in areas that the UN Mission has withdrawn from as part of the mission drawdown program.
Presenting the vehicles to the LNP, President Sirleaf instructed the Director of Police Col. Clarence Massaquoi to have the donated vehicles deployed in the interior of the country. The Liberian leader who has been instrumental in addressing the logistical needs of the police, said it was necessary to have the vehicles sent to the rural parts of Liberia where she said police officers are walking hours to attend to calls from residents.
The President added that some of the officers are regularly using motorbikes and other forms of transportation to arrest suspects. "I have come with a very clear cut message to you (making reference to the Director of police) that these vehicles be deployed in the rural areas of Liberia to address the security conditions in those areas", the Liberian leader said. I do not want to see these vehicles plying the streets of Monrovia".
The current fleet of vehicles purchased is the government of Liberia's support toward Phrase One and Two of the UNMIL Drawdown process.
In response, Police Director Massaquoi assured the President that the cars will be deployed up country to assist those officers who are forced to walk long distances to affect an arrest.
The Police Chief told the Liberian leader that the planned deployment was already in full swing ahead of the arrival of the vehicles.
Director Massaquoi informed the President that the cost of one of the vehicles as per police- specification is put at USD 36, 600.00. The vehicles include sirens, top-light, accessories, re-enforced suspension, all -terrain tires, side step, Heavy duty suspension uplift kit and other installations.
The UNMIL Drawdown is divided into three phases, from October 2012- to June 2014, covering Robert sport, Grand Cape Mount County, Loguatuio, Nimba County, Foyah, Lofa County, Sinje Cape Mount, and LAC, Grand Bassa County.
Other areas include Cesto City Rivercess County, Greenville, Sinoe County, Barclayville Grand Kru County and Tubmanbury, Bomi County.
Phase three is expected to commence on the first of July 2014- 2015 and will include Kakata, Margibi County, Zorzor, Lofa County, Voinjama, Lofa County Ganta, Nimba County, Saniquillie, Nimba County and Tappita also in Nimba.
Other areas to be covered include Zwedru, Grand Gedeh County, Toes Town Grand Gedeh County, Fish Town, River Gee, Pleebo and Harper in Maryland Country.

Gays Fuck Guys is another site that brings you gay-for-pay sex. However, there is no reality setup where you see the straight dudes being paid money to have sex with another man. Instead, you just see the typical seduction scenario or a guy getting caught masturbating, which leads to man-on-man sex.
GaysFuckGuys has 82 videos to download in Windows Media files and stream in Flash. You'll find that a good number come in HD and even those that don't still provide good or great-quality playback. Each scene lasts about 15 to 20 minutes.
The flicks look like they were filmed in an Eastern European location and there's a mix of bareback and condom sex, which is a bit unusual in my experience. Usually, porn from this part of the world tends to be an all or nothing proposition when it comes to rubbers.
One of the performers in each scene tends to fit the stereotype of a hetero male. Often, one guy is older and he might be a bit paunchy too. Sometimes both models are around the same age, but one of them has a slightly edgier look that could make him seem straight.
There are also 175 sets of high-res pics that you can download in Zip files and they have anywhere from 40 to over 100 images. The layouts look professionally shot, but the men are definitely amateurs. You will see every imperfection in these large, crisp photos.
That's okay, though. It makes you feel as if you're seeing real people, not overly slick gay-pornstar wannabes. I guess it helps with the illusion that some of these studs are truly heterosexual. There's nothing worse than seeing a straight-gay site with overly coiffed and plucked males posing as straight bait.
You start off getting one bonus site when you sign up and then another one for each week that you stay a member. As far as gay choices go, there's Gay Sissies about guys who are made to crossdress before having sex with another dude. There's also Try Pantyhose where guys wear hosiery and in some cases enjoy bisexual or gay encounters.
There hasn't been an update in a little over three months, but there is enough content already here. In the end, Gays Fuck Guys could be worth checking out.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

- " Giovanni was absolutely wonderful. I could not recommend staying with him any higher. He creates a wonderful communal experience within his home, and shared his passion for his home Napoli. He turned a stop on the road into one of the highlights of our trip, and we were sad to leave him when it was time to go to the next city. Thanks Giovanni for sharing the best of Napoli with us! "
- 02 May 2015 Ashley
- " Naples is a great city. There are many things to do and Giovanni is a perfect guide. I needed more days there then I have to come back!! "
- 18 Mar 2015 Anonymous Colombia
- " Traveling during Christmas time can be a lonely time when traveling solo, but not at Giovanni's! We were served dinner on Christmas Eve and serenaded with song and guitar afterward. The location is right in the middle of old Venice and it made seeing the major sights within walking distance. We received tips on how to see the distant places on a student budget and got a personalized map and mini-history lesson about Naples. It was a very homey place and priced well. "
- 23 Dec 2014 Anonymous Canada
- " Giovanni's home was warm and welcoming. I highly enjoyed my staying there and as I told him prior to departure I think Giovanni has the potential of becoming more than a host: a friend. Love the atmosphere there and the fact that he does time to give advice, explain , draw maps. It was very useful and my only regret is that I didn't spend more time there. "
- 21 Aug 2014 Simona Romania
- " Giovanni is an awesome host. If you are looking to stay in Naples for a while and learn about the city (which we were) or pass through to see Vesuvius/Pompeii, this hostel is a great choice. Within two hours of arriving we were set up with our room, been given a lengthy description of the city's history and attractions and Giovanni made pumpkin risotto for us for lunch! "

From the article: Your First Cat Tutorial
The decision to adopt your first cat is a monumental one, both for you and for your new cat, which I hope will be a family member for life. Unfortunately, sometimes people are ill-equipped to know exactly what to expect from the cat they have adopted, because of the lack of preparation.If you've adopted a cat, you undoubtedly know a lot more about them than you did prior to adopting your first cat, and perhaps made some mistakes at the time. Share your experiences with my readers to help them from making the same mistakes. Please do not ask questions here, but create your own mini-article to help other readers.
Cats Diets
- I wish I knew that it is much healthier for cats to be on a raw diet, I would have taken them off of kibble alot sooner then I did. I'm still trying to adjust them to a raw diet.
- —Guest tpz1957
That two is better than one.
- When I got Spike, they were having a "kitten discount" at the Humane Society--two kittens for the adoption fee of one. At the time, I thought two kittens would be too much to handle, so I didn't get a second. Now I wish I had, because Spike would have a kitty buddy to hang out with while I'm at work, as well as other benefits!
- —glorie725
SO many things....
- Now that my Spooky has been in Heaven for 22 days, I wish I had known to buy a really good digital camera so that I'd have more pictures of her 17 years with me and that I had copies of the pictures of her that I gave to others. I read in a memorial of another cat that his owner really missed hearing his cat's meow. Perhaps one might want to record that. I regret not paying more attention to Spooky's teeth. She had one troubling her toward the end of her life, but was too risky to be put to sleep to have it removed. I wish EVERYONE going through an illness and euthanasia could know Chaplain Marcus Allison (chaplainmarcus.org) , animal chaplain in Alabama who has helped me through my grief. I'm glad I DIDN'T know how deeply her loss would be effecting me now. I'm glad I DIDN'T know how quickly 17 years would pass.
- —Guest jan
I think I'm glad I *didn't* know
- I didn't know the challenges involved with feral cats who had been rescued later than 8 or 10 weeks. I thought they would be pretty much like any of the cats we had when I was growing up, and would get over things and be "normal". Well, 6 1/2 years later, there are still issues with them, and it has taken more work than I knew. But I'm so glad I didn't know that beforehand, because I might have been scared away from adopting the sweetest cat in the world, and his adorable (also sweet, but not pure sweet like her brother) sister. They have been frustrating and a joy. More joy than anything.

Moggie Outhouse
- A heavily flea infested, miserable looking 5 week old male was literally dumped on my doorstep almost four years ago.I had inherited a cat with the house, a possessive princess, who hated other cats, and was often raped despite being desexed. I did not want this extra cat, and could not spare it much time. In Japan, where I live, unwanted animals are treated like trash at best. Policy is not rehousing, but drowning or gasing after three days. Visiting father to the rescue! He carried the cat in a sling with him, the stairs in the house being so steep, and took the cat to his litter every couple of hours. He would pet and praise him whenever he used the litter, and made sure the cat drank plenty of water. I have never had toilet issues with him, Pepper, even after moving, and although he rarely sees my father, he's the only other human he's overtly affectionate with. They are well worth the effort, and deserve so much better than humans give them.

Food Problems
- I had fostered two kittens from birth and had kept them for nine months until they were adopted by a lady that has spoiled them rotten. I fed them a dry brand name kitten food with a few wet treats occasionally. They had been spayed and neutered so no health problems to deal with. I thought I was through having a pet so I gave away everything with them. Then one day a poor, wet and cold feral TNR adult kitty that I have named Rascal adopted me at work. I didn't have a clue as to the many different problems I'd face with feeding this poor guy since he had been feral from birth. I wish I had paid more attention to the labels on the cat foods because I have had to learn by watching Rascal's eating habits that not all is as one would hope inside that bag or can! He will not eat any of the high value foods but prefers a mixed dry food and a small can of wet food along with a few crunchy treats daily. Lesson: read those labels and watch your cat's desires.
- —Guest Rascal'sDad
Height Matters
- I've had dogs most of my life and was pretty confident if I put breakables up high enough, the breakables were safe. With kitties, there are few "high enoughs" so it brings on a whole new way of decorating our home. :-)
- —Guest Debbie
Didn't know
- I adopted a purebred Persian 1 1/2 yr old cat from the pound as a Christmas present to myself. Unknown to me, she refused to use the litter box for peeing. I found this out the next spring when the house got warm and it started to smell. I couldn't take her back at that time as a 30 day max for returns. Her tag said the couple that owned her were moving from a house to an apartment. She was declawed and sprayed. I did have her for about eight years until she died.
- —Guest Clare
- I got 2 cats from my sister. I was broke but had depression and was lonely. I was going to declaw my babies. I'm glad I learned more about this procedure and I didn't do it. Now, 3 1/2 years later I've been rescuing for about a year and a half. I've rescued and placed about 30+ homeless cats(barn kittens who are sick, or strays) and trap/neuter/released about 125 + barn cats. I still have a ton to learn and I'm learning more every day. I do my own distemper vaccines and everything. I wish I had known years ago half of what I know now, although, I have to admit, I would not have adopted to myself so I'm glad I didn't. oh FYI almost any outdoor kitten you take in is going to need abx for upper respiratory infection! helpful tip- If your vet prescribes an abx that is a human one also, get a script and take it to walmart (or another pharmacy) amoxi drops from vet- 25 dollars to treat 2 kits amoxi from walmart-9 dollars for enough for 2 kits
- —Guest austin17055
gender confused
- i wish i had known the true genders of BOTH my cats (thought they were boys). Furthermore, I wish I'd taken them to the vet immediately. I'm sure I wouldve found out at that point that one is in fact a girl... and is now pregnant.. I NEVER intended - or expected - to be expecting and I'm wholly unprepared for the event (tho it's scary and exciting all at the same time). I feel worse for my baby.. poor attention on MY part put all of us in this position :(

Bengal Cats: Tritrichomoas Foetus
- If you are purchasing a Bengal, make sure the breeder provides proof that the kitten has been tested and is TF free. The kitten I bought was infected, and if I hadn't researched his symptoms (foul smelling diarrhea with blood and mucus) online, I would not have known what the problem was. I had a hassle getting him tested and treated because the vets in my area were unfamiliar with this parasite. Meanwhile, he infected my other cat, and I have had to fight with the breeder to get reimbursed for my expenses. It has been a horrible experience. Four months down the road and they are still infected! I believe the breeder knew (or suspected and didn't want to know because of the expense in treating her cattery) and passed him off to me. Fortunately, I got him to the vet within the 72-hour window per the health guarantee. I am afraid this breeder will continue to sell infected cats. Be very careful. INSIST on a vet health certificate and TF test.

Introducing new cat to old cat
- I have Fred who is 16 and just lost Stanley who was 5 and died of kidney disease recently. In his memory I adopted a shelter cat, Henry. I brought Henry home, established him in a spare bedroom with litter tray, food/water and bed. For the first 4 days I kept him completely isolated in there, it was hard, as dear old Fred could tell there was "something" upstairs! After fending Henry off from bedroom door (he felt inquisitive and wanted to explore his new home) I waited till Fred was taken to the vets by a friend and let Henry out to roam around the house, getting used to Fred's smell, but making sure the catflap was securely closed! The next evening after work I put Henry in the catbox and took it outside to the garden (keeping the catflap closed). Then I let Fred into the bedroom where Henry had been for now 5 days, he sniffed around and mooched off to have his early evening kip. I brought Henry in the catbox back into the house and released him in "his" bedroom, just leaving
- —abellemed
- I wish I had known how vocal my newly adopted cat was. Living in an apartment keeps me alert to his loud talking (like an ally cat)
- —Guest pegg
Always Learning
- I feel like I'm always learning something new. I grew up in a house with cats and thought I new everything. With my current brood, two brothers, I wish I had know a few things... not that it would have prevented me from adopting them - I just wish I had known so I could care for them better. I wish I had known about cats doing better on a animal-protein wet food diet. I've had two gets get stones, and I didn't know until recently how wet food can help with issues like that. I also wish I had known how cats react when a housemate gets sick. My two boys are brothers and when one got sick, the other had a really hard time. He was afraid of his sick brother and jealous of the attention the sick kitty was getting. He stopped eating and started acting aggressively. He also freaks out at the vet now. I wish I had known more about cat behavior and how I could have made that time easier for him. Its a year later and they are both doing much better - time heals and so does love.
- —Guest Milo's Mom
I wish I knew....
- I wish I had known not to disrupt the life of an older cat with a kitten. The older cat suffered and so did the kitten
- —Guest ally
Tme is on your side
- When I adopted Oksana as a playmate to Vlad I put them together too quickly. As a result Vlad and her to this day have a sort of love hate relationship. When I got Maks and Kiska I integrated them easier since I had a little more experience. But with my stray girl Czarina it was a different story. I set up my kitchen as HER safe area. I put a screen on the kitchen passthrough and I put a screen to block the kitchen entry. Czarina had been a stray for at least 3 years. Being inside with strange cats and a strange person was very stressful. My doctor suggested prozac. I gave her the prozac for about 6 months and she was in the kitchen on her own for about 4-5. In that time she was able to get comfortable with indoor life and she began trusting me. She also had the opportunity to see the other cats through the screen. Little by little I began letting her out for a few hours a day. After a while she was fully a part of the gang and is a very happy healthy indoor cat.

KENTON — It's been more than seven decades since Gene Autry visited Kenton, but the western star's persona continues to fuel the fun at the annual Gene Autry Days."We have cowboy entertainment and food and collectibles dealers, and that seems to be what people enjoy," said Chris Barker of the Hardin County Chamber and Business Alliance. "We have people from all over the United States and Canada who come to town for this one event."In fact, while there are other cowboy trade shows around, this is one of the few gatherings that also promotes entertainment and food."We have changed and tweaked a few things about the show since it began 18 years ago, but pretty much it's the same show, and people seem to be pretty happy with that," Barker said.The connection between Autry and Kenton happened in 1937 when the Kenton Hardware Co. revived the local economy with a contract to produce more than 6 million Gene Autry repeating cap guns. Autry, a worldwide movie star at the time, visited the factory the following year, and the rest is history.Celebrating that village-saving contract and visit, the community began in 1994 to host Gene Autry Days. Although Autry died in 1998, his wife has continued to allow the town use of his name and likeness for the event. In fact, his likeness can be found on a mural just west of the Square in downtown Kenton, dedicated in 2004."He's still very popular. His movies are on TV, and people still watch," Barker said.

Gritt Ryder
Nov. 23, 2013
NORMAL, Ill. – The Colorado State women's basketball team opened their road season with a 76-61 victory Saturday night at Redbird Arena.
The Rams improve to 3-1 on the year, their best start since the 2005-06 season. The Redbirds remain winless at 0-3. It's the first time CSU won its road opener since 2003.
CSU and Illinois State were deadlocked in a battle until the final 8 minutes of play; that was when Gritt Ryder and Caitlin Duffy took over, increasing the Rams' lead to 15 as the final seconds clicked off the clock. Ryder finished with 21 points, a career-high, while Duffy tallied her fourth consecutive game of the year in double figures with 14, making four shots from three-point range.
"(In the end) we just got a little more control of that game defensively," commented Head Coach Ryun Williams. "We finally showed some patience in that second half.
The Rams shot 52.0 percent on the night, and 52.4 from beyond the arc. Sam Martin also scored double digits for CSU with 11, while adding a team-high seven rebounds. The team shot .929 from the charity stripe, converting 13 of their 14 attempts from the line.
"You could tell in our huddle, we just had a look in our eyes, 'We're going to win.' We just keep finding a way. That's a neat thing. We know we still have to put 40 minutes together, but we're learning a lot," said Williams.
Colorado State will continue its road trip with three games in three days following the Thanksgiving holiday at the Waikiki Beach Marriott Rainbow Wahine Showdown. The Rams will start the tournament against host-school Hawai'i on Nov. 29 at 8 p.m. MT.
"We were just too eager to score early," added Williams. "We've just got to come out and learn to play early like we did late."

We take in families, women with mental health issues, refugees, and students from Iraq whose lives have been interrupted because of the war. We give out clothing, food, infant items, furniture, and support to those in need. Of course being a Catholic Worker [6] house and trying to follow in the steps of Dorothy Day [7], we also try to work for social justice.
More recently, the Milwaukee Catholic Worker House has been the subject of an FBI investigation as being possibly involved in terrorist acts. A Department of Justice report [8] calls these investigations faulty.
I find it rather surprising, slightly entertaining, and greatly disturbing that our Catholic Worker House in Milwaukee was the subject of an FBI investigation, as being possibly involved in terrorism. I remember in 2003, the FBI came to interview me twice about how they had positive identification of me as a criminal who threw items through an army recruiting center window in Milwaukee. At the time I thought them to be quite deceitful and was very clear with them on this. However, I had no idea they were considering me a possible terrorist.
The truth is, we protest war [9]. We urge people not to pay their federal taxes since so much goes to war [10]. We do sit-ins at our Senatorial offices. We vigil for the rights of farm workers. We picket against companies and banks that invest in ecological destruction and genocide. But we do not destroy property or act secretly. We are very open about all our actions and always have been.
On one hand, I am happy that the Department of Justice came out with this surprising report that holds the FBI accountable. On the other hand, what the report says is quite worrisome. Is it not our duty as Christians and people of conscience to question our government when we feel it is wrong. Is it not our duty as Americans to do the same?
I try to reassure myself that this happened in the frenzy that followed the terrorist acts on September 11. However, I still worry that my government at any time will again overstep its bounds and, perhaps, won't be held accountable. One thing I know for sure, we cannot fear our government. We must continue to challenge it with nonviolent confrontation [11] in the spirit of Jesus himself.
