You got a nice bod ... whether its a work in progress our not. Like Owen228445 said ... always allow the moans to be heard. Please don't use music in the background. To me ... wide angle shots are better. I prefer mounted cam vids. Some peeps hold the cam while banging. That is too close and the bouncing vid makes me sick. But I would love to bottom for you. I have a tight ass ... and I am sure you could do it justice. I'm just saying. Friend me ... hit me up. We can talk. Good luck cutie.
I thought you looked familiar you need to hit me up! In west philly babes I got an idea for you
I'm sure we all want to see all those erogenous zones. Of course we want to see your dick, balls and ass. But dont forget about things like nips, and tongue, and feet and massaging of your sexy body. Above all, dont forget to continue talking to us. Tell us what you are feeling, let us know about all the sensations you are experiencing, and remember a good moan communicates a lot. Looking forward to your videos and their audio component.
very sexy, let make a video together
nice video
welcome, mate! good intro! lets see! cant wait to see more! cheers from berlin

Felbrigg Hall, Gardens and Estate
The Garden
The Walled Garden
The Walled Garden at Felbrigg Hall is widely renowned as one of East Anglia's finest.
Get up close to the double borders and herb beds and really breathe in the scent of lavender, sage and mint.
You can find a good many modern surprises within this traditionally laid out garden.
The Orangery
The Orangery was built in 1704 and was designed to harmonise with the west wing of the house.
In the 19th century the building was given a glass roof which by 1958 had fallen in and was replaced by the one you see today.
The Orangery now houses a collection of camellias, some of considerable size and age.
The community allotments
As part of an initiative to encourage people to grow their own food, eight community allotments were created within the Walled Garden.
The programme sparked immediate interest and continues to be a topic of conversation with our visitors.
Life in the garden
Olives in the garden?
Yes Olea europaea is surprisingly hardy, in the very cold winter of a few years ago, we had thick snow on the ground from the beginning of November till Christmas, temperatures fell to -14 in the walled garden. All of our olive trees survived with one exception, it wasn't the cold that killed the tree but the weight of the snow! It was our biggest tree located in the kitchen garden, the crown was so thick the snow piled on top of it pulling the tree over until it snapped off clean at the soil line.
Crown thinning
We have experienced and we have learned! Every year at this time we crown thin our olives, this late in the season there should be no new (therefore vulnerable) growth but the cuts will callus up nicely before there are any frosts. Thinning allows us to maintain a lovely goblet shape to the branches in the crown whilst reducing the total volume of the crown significantly, thereby making it less vulnerable to potential damage caused by either heavy snow or strong winds.
Grow your own
Tips for planting olives in your garden
Plant outside in a sheltered position, in full sun. Soil should be free draining and not too rich – mix in shingle on heavy soils and do not manure or over feed. Water newly planted trees until established.
Once established the plants will not require watering even during the driest of conditions.
Old variety plants
We have some lovely old figs trained against the south facing wall of the herb border in the walled garden, thought to have been relocated to its present position around 1750. There is a quote in the "Eastern Arboretum" by James Grigor, published in 1847, which mentions the figs stating that they were about 100yrs old at the time, making the figs the only original remaining plants from the garden of that period.
Unusual plants
We have an Umbellularia Californica, planted around 1860, which is rare in the UK. Also known as the "Headache Tree" or "Balm of Heaven". One of our gardeners enjoys the scent released by mowing through the leaves, and following a debate amongst them as to whether the "headache" side-effect was a myth, another gardener broke off a handful of leaves, crushed them and inhaled deeply – it ruined his day! You decide which it is..
The garden pets
Speckled Sussex
Ginger - named after Ginger Rogers - is a Speckled Sussex and is seen here with her chicks foraging for their lunch.
Buff Orpingtons
Rocky ( Rock Hudson) the Buff Orpington cockerel and some of his girls, 2 Buff hens Goldie and Doris (Goldie Hawn & Doris Day) and a Light Sussex, Honour (Honour Blackman)
Peking Bantams
The Peking Bantams, cockerel JD (James Dean) and one of his girls Marilyn enjoying themselves rootling the the flower beds.
Semi-feral cats
Jake the cat is one of our semi-feral cats who, as you can see, looks happy and healthy living in the walled garden where the gardeners and the volunteers make sure they are fed and looked after
This section of the page features an image gallery, so if you're using a screen reader you may wish to jump to the main content.
Moments in the garden
- The Rose garden was created in 1971 in memory of the last squire by his friends and Felbrigg villagers.
- The original design was simple and effective with 4 box edged beds cut into the lawn containing various species and cultivars of roses.
- Although the layout has not changed over the years, the plants have and now we have a rose garden with no roses!
- We have completely redesigned this memorial garden to reflect the rest of the gardens whilst retaining its own distinct character.
- You will see this garden on your way to the front door when you visit the house.

Eco Boost owners! RX Oil separating PCV system
Through the rest of June, Special sale on the RX dual valve oil/water/fuel separation system at www.RevXtreme.com
If you have a ecoboost in your F150 you may be aware of the shudder/misfire issues under load or acceleration. To date most of the TSB's have not been effective in fixing this as well as the liquid gunk (water, unburnt fuel, sulfuric acid, soot and carbon mix) accumulating in the crankcase and then in the CAC (intercooler). The reason this happens is the PCV system only evacuates properly at idle and low throttle, so most of the time the damaging combustion by-products that would be normally evacuated as soon as they enter as blow-by on most engines are forced to accumulate in concentrate in the crankcase where they mix with the oil and when crankcase pressure builds, are then forced out the clean side inlet (drivers side) into the driver side turbo inlet where they are drawn through the turbo and then forced into the CAC where they condense and accumulate:
You can see as this mix is allowed to settle what it is made up of:
This causes several issues, the most evident is the shudder/misfire when driving and you suddenly accelerate which causes some of this accumulated gunk to be pushed into the intake air charge and cause spark blow-out (make sure your plugs are gapped at .030 to help as well) and in severe cases the fluid is great enough it cannot compress so hydro-lock occurs and piston/rod damage can occur. Those that have had catastrophic engine failure most likely had this occur when cruising and accelerating suddenly to pass/merge/climb a hill, etc. where the sudden full boost pushes this mix from the CAC into the intake air charge.
Some also may notice your oil level increasing (making oil) as this mix accumulates in the crankcase diluting and contaminating the engine oil.
All engines have some blow-by. This is normal, and the compounds forced into the crankcase by this are normally evacuated by the PCV system as soon as they enter allowing most to be burned again in the combustion process causing no more than coking buildup on the intake valves over time. The EcoBoost by comparison also has a standard design PCV system (unlike most other turbo engines that have a properly designed PCV system) that rely's on intake manifold vacuum to evacuate, or draw/flush these compounds out as this video illustrates:
On the ecoboost the fresh, or clean side is on the drivers side of the engine....a tube running from the cam/valve cover to the driver side turbo inlet pipe, so the air is filtered and fresh. This is drawn through the crankcase as it flushes, and replaces foul, or dirty harmful compound laden vapors out the passengers side cam/valve cover, through the PCV valve located there. This works fine as long as there is no boost being made and there is plenty of vacuum present while running. But the ecoboost is a twin turbo, and the turbos are small, very efficient units that begin to spool up quickly so anytime your cruising or under any acceleration, the PCV valve closes to prevent boost from pressurizing the crankcase, and the flushing/evacuation halts. This is where these compounds then are allowed to accumulate. As this concentrate accumulates in the crankcase, some mixes with the engine oil and some is pushed backwards, out the fresh side tube into the drivers side turbo.
The RX systems unique dual valve evacuation corrects this flaw by using the intake manifold for evacuation suction while at idle and low throttle, and then when the IM no longer provides sufficient suction to maintain the fresh in, foul out, the primary valve will detect this and close. The secondary valve then opens and uses the suction from the turbo inlets to continue to provide steady, constant evacuation.
The RX unique 4 chamber, 3 step separation and containment process coalesces, condenses, and traps this mix to be emptied and disposed of properly (as you would any drain oil) keeping it not only out of the crankcase, but the CAC and the intake air charge as well. This is the ONLY system currently available that not only traps 95% plus the mix from ingestion, but also corrects the root cause of all of this to begin with.
The fresh side line is then relocated to the filtered side (top cover) of the air box preventing the suction of the drivers side turbo from drawing out foul vapors out the fresh side inlet being a complete solution to the issues:
And the RX can is still unequaled in effectiveness in separating and trapping these compounds as this test here can be performed with ANY catchcan on the market to verify:
And the results?
This is in the below zero winter when water will make up a good portion of the mix, expect far less water in the warm weather months....but this is what is trapped from ingestion in your engine, and also prevents it from accumulating in the crankcase and the CAC.
Special pricing going on right now!!!!! Click on our link!!!!
This is GUARANTEED to correct the issues (shudder/misfire, water fuel and other compounds accumulating in the engine oil, and this same gunk accumulating in the CAC).
If you experience any of these, we at EcoPowerParts have the solution you will NOT get with the TSB's. Over 450 EB owners attest to the results, and we will guarantee then as well.
Enjoy your EB fully w/out these nagging issues.
Models for Ecoboost, 5.0, 6.2, and all other applications as well. Questions? Just ask.
Anyone in doubt, just ask for data, study's, pictures, etc. On the fuel economy improvements to the intake valve coking. Or just what hundreds are draining that is now being caught that used to be ingested after mixing in the crankcase. :thumbsup:
What one of the Ford dealers that install these systems replied back to a member here that inquired. Note this is the Monster system and installed by them, as well as the exchange rate between US and Canada:
Hmm might be interested in one of these for the 5.0 it really looks like it helps the engine out a ton!! About after how many miles should you empty it? Also what sort of fuel economy boost does it give the 5.0?
What is the impact on the warranty if one of these is fitted?
I am very interested in this. When will you offer Ford factory colors? I see you have a full line of GM colors available
The system for the 5.0 or 6.2 is the same...and is the single valve for under $200.:thumbsup:
The final results of the long term test are available in the "UPR vs RX catchcan" test thread.
We have these for the EB, 5.0, 6.2, etc as well. The most effective solution available....no equal in effectiveness.

CBNNews.com - RAMALLAH - The Israeli government's behind-the-scenes offer to cede 91.5 percent of Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) to the Palestinian Authority (PA) is unacceptable, according to PA officials.
PA President Mahmoud Abbas told members of the Fatah Revolutionary Council Sunday that nothing has been achieved in six months of negotiations with Israel, as reported in an article by the PA daily al-Ayyam.
"Domestic issues in both Israel and the U.S. are diverting attending from peacemaking," Abbas told Fatah's leaders.
One member of the Revolutionary Council told The Associated Press that Abbas feared "... the [corruption] probe against Olmert and the American preoccupation with the [presidential]elections will negatively affect the negotiations."
According to Palestinian officials, Israel presented a revised map, reducing the first offer of retaining 12 percent of the area to 8.5 percent, three days ago.
The officials said neither offer included Jewish neighborhoods in east Jerusalem, which is unacceptable to the Palestinians, who want east Jerusalem, including the Old City, as the capital of their future state.

"They had a half off sale, so the price was worth it (when sending out Thank you cards or invitations to family). I really like how they turned out - beautiful design."
"I had a little left on a gift certificate and decided what the heck, get labels with my name and my partners, (all we had were one or the other), These were easy to design and came really fast"
"These address labels printed up beautifully. I am very pleased with this product. I also found Tiny Prints customer service to be very helpful. I would definitely order from Tiny Prints again."
"Absolutely beautiful invite for our baby girl brunch! I was so pleased that they turned out so well. I would purchase again in a heartbeat."
"I ordered these labels one night, with a coupon, and TinyPrints delivered them so quickly! I personalized the product with my name and address and plan on using them on letters to friends and family for a cute organized look. The quality of the paper was excellent. The printing was maybe just a tiny bit blotted in some spots (ink on the address looked a little missing in some places) but nothing so distracting that I wouldn't recommend it to people! I think they look beautiful and I can't wait to use them, thank you!"

Our mom is now 88 and has the beginnings of Alzheimers but goes 3 days a week to a private wonderfully run day care and she comes home refreshed and stimulated.
She has 4 children, all of whom are married and have children of their own. All live close by. She cannot live alone anymore and must have help with showers, etc. She is very sweet but a little demanding when it comes to eating (type of food, time to eat, etc)
She now lives with one of my sisters whose husband has Parkinsons and she has 3 teens. The teens are feeling a little violated with Grandma there and feel they don't have their own space anymore.
Our mom only gets $726 a month in social security. We are trying to get veterans benefits but that takes a long time.
This is stressing all of us out and we love her. How can we honor her? She wants to live with my one sister (the one she is with). My sister also works very full time, six days a week and sometimes 2 jobs. My sister said her family is suffering b/c of our mom being there.
I found an ALF (112 residents) nearby. What to do?
Any ideas? I hate to just push her out. My husband and I had her live in a condo that we bought for her for 17 years. He feels we have done our part.
PS - All of her children work full time so there is no one home most of the day at most of the homes. That is a problem.

Let your mom choose where she wants to live.
Then make it happen. If she wants to stay in her own home- somebody has got to make the sacrifice. If she wants to live with the one daughter w/ family....then they must sacrifice.
My mom was placed on Hospice and didn't want to go to a nursing home. Out of five children where 2 lived in the same city (one in an apartment and was a nurse; and the other no children) and one 1 hour up the road w/ no children....then 1 more kid up the road 8 hours- no kids....
it was me, single mom of three children (2 of which were early college age 15 and 16).... I moved from Las Vegas all the way to NC to care for my mom in a 2 bedroom rinky dink trailer.
It was almost torture. I spent alot of time crying, my kids left college....it was awful. But I sat with her day in and day out and cried in the twin bed all four of my family was sharing as my mom's bed was set up in the living room.
Mother passed away, my 2 oldest previously in college went into the military....so I lost three loved ones in just a short time.
But all in all....life is so too short. What many feel as 'necessary' in life just isn't.
Make the sacrifice...somebody.
Oh, did I mention I was starting Nursing School in just a few short weeks....had already been accepted, buying books, etc. Left everything!
Just pray and let the Lord guide.
Good luck!

Our mother
She is at the point where she does not really tell you what she wants. She cannot live alone in the condo. We have rented it out now which is a blessing for my husband and me.
My other sister had her for a while - was not working out - too stressful. Now this sister has her. My mom really wants to stay there with her but my sister has a hard time explaining everything to her.
She can be very sweet and my sister loves the moments she sits with her and reads the Bible to her. (Calms her).
The only thing she really tells you about is the food.
You sound like you were a wonderful daughter to your mom.

This is why we are called "the sandwich generation." We are smack dab in the middle of our kids and our parents. We take care of all of them. And we are lucky that we can. Keep in mind that there is a lot of help out there if you know where to look and who to contact.
My mother is 84. She lived alone in the family home in a town in west Texas until last year when she actually asked us to move her to the Dallas metroplex. My sis and her hubby live in that area. I'm an hour southwest of them. We moved mother into a wonderful assisted living arrangement. It's like a resort. No lie. My sister can get to her in 10 minutes. This week we had to move her into the "memory care" section of the "resort." Alzheimer's.
Check with Social Security to see if your mother qualifies for SSI (supplemental security income) benefits. If you call make sure your mother is in the same room you are in. SSA will want to get her permission to talk to you. Use the SSA 800#. Also, check with Medicaid at the county/state level. They can help with nursing home payments and/or medical care. Also, get in touch with organizations for seniors. They will have some ideas for you. SSA can give you the names and numbers of organizations you can contact.
One more thing: check the internet for "A Place for Mom." It's free to you. It's a great organization/business. They will ask questions about what you are looking for and they will set up appointments for you to tour various places. The contacts are local and they have relationships with all the places you might be interested in. They are paid by the various businesses. You pay nothing. A Place for Mom is also well versed in the various benefits available to your mother. Check 'em out.
Follow your heart and your brain. It's a tough time for you. Believe me, I know.

I work on an inpatient Alzheimer's service. These are largely people who flunked out of nursing homes from their illnesses.
If someone cannot be safely left alone (falls, wandering, lighting stove) then I think it really is kinder and safer to have the person in a setting with 24-hour supervision. If it's nearby, family can visit as much as they want, and do the activities (bible reading,etc.) that all find nourishing and connecting (unlike dragging someone on or off a commode, arguing with a failing mind about an unsafe behavior, and so on).
People with neurological disease (and that's dementia of all kinds) are not likely to be able to make a rational decision about how to proceed. Likely, if the lady could answer, she'd choose not to have a neurological disease. I mean, dementia is way beyond "when Mom gets forgetful."
People can live for years and years with increasing dementia. It is not reasonable for someone who must work for a roof over their heads or who is taking care of children to quit their job and become a 24-hour companion for someone who is failing.
For those who would say, "But they took care of me when I was a child," note that the usual progression for a child is more functionality, not less. A lot of parents wouldn't do it if they knew their child would become progressively less functional for years and years.

There's a lot of Home Health Services out there that might be a good fit such as Home Instead, Comfort Keepers,Allied,Americare,AssistedCare Home Health,Care Alternatives,Eldercare,Healthmate Home Care,Liberty,Right At Home,Senior Care Alternatives,etc. Look in your yellow pages to see who is in your area. They will come in as often as you like or need for a pretty reasonable fee. She might also qualify for a grant for free. Check on it at your local senior center. Best of luck to you.

Hi, Bette-
I can totally empathize. I'm on a similar journey to yours along with my 86 year-old mom who has dementia.
Who is caring for your mom now while your sister is at work? Does your mom have her own room without another family member being displaced?
The choice to place or not to place is such a tough decision.
My mom became unable to live on her own about the time I retired five years ago. I've cared for her since. My brother spells me in the evening when needed. Though generally pleasant, Mom's judgement and some resistant behaviors have become quite challenging. We're almost at the point she has to be watched every moment. Oy, the tales I could tell.
Years ago, my mom said, "Please don't ever put me in a nursing home" We did have to place her a couple of years ago when she had a bladder infection and as seniors can do, she totally "wacked out" (for lack of a better term) and was no longer walking. She was doing so poorly behaviorally while in the medical hospital that the nearby Alzheimer's facility said she was functioning at too low a level for them to take her.
We did place her in a nice skilled nursing facility where she returned to her baseline behavior after a couple of weeks. She had a lovely lady caring for her most days and was generally doing well there. We thought it best to leave her there for awhile. She responded well to the activities, had a nice room, pleasant roommates and I visited her everyday from about 4:30 till bedtime about 9:00. We brought her home weekends though hospital regs didn't allow her to spend the night. She was fine while at the SNF but often refused to return after visits out.
Her main complaints were: "Nobody ever comes to see me."
Some complaints about food ( I brought some food in). Complaints about and resistance to staff other than her regular caretaker. And she especially missed her doggies even when I brought them to visit. She was anxious about when I was coming to visit and had staff call me several times each day so she could talk to me. I had a few calls from staff in the wee hours saying my mom was refusing to be changed and I had to haul across town to assist. Overall though she seemed to thrive and be cheerful.
After 7 months that all changed. With one hours notice ( to Mom and me) the SNF moved her from a "short-term care" room to a "long-term care" room. She lost her lovely room with telephone, TV, patio view with plants and kitties playing there. She also lost her very nice roommate and her lovely caretaker. She was moved to the middle bed of a small three person room in a different wing with two kvetching roommates who didn't want her there, almost no privacy, no amenities and not friendly staff. My mom ( who seldom cries) couldn't stop crying. The hospital administration reacted as if they were moving pieces on a chess board rather than a real live person. So after much thought, I brought her home, where, considering the expected cognitive decline she has done great. We still laugh alot and I think these little spoiled dogs have extended her life by about ten years!
Under the very best of circumstances, caregiving is a very tough job. You might be able to get in-home supportive services from her county to provide part-time assistance with her care and respite for family until she can no longer be home.
Definitely check out placement alternatives as soon as possible and get on a list if there is one so you're prepared when either the family situation or your mom's functioning necessitate placement.
Each family situation is different and the progression of the dementia is different as well. There is no one right choice and no dishonor in placing your mom if that seems the best choice given the circumstances. She will need reassurance and support as any change is difficult.
Every week, I go through an evaluation, weighing the pros and cons of whether I should continue to be Mom's caregiver primarily on my own. There is a great deal of sacrifice in one's own life but there are gifts that come with this challenging job that are difficult to articulate.
Growing old isn't for the faint of heart nor is caring for an aging loved one. I wish you and your family the best in whatever choice you make.

mollyblythe - what a compassionate caring realistic post. I've done both long term on-site care giving and long distance care giving interspersed with frequent extended visits for the past 16 years . First an aunt, then a dad , and now a mom...it feels like it is never ending. I feel bad because my mom is now in a nursing home .... she wants to go home, she wants me there so she can go home, and I am just so worn out I do not have enough left to do it full time. I never thought i'd reach that point, I just assumed I would always do what needed to be done.
Caregivers tend to continue giving beyond the time that they should....and only realize it afterwards. My Mom went to a nursing home after a fall, and I was unable to "rescue" her as I have in the past because of two surgeries myself. I was amazed at the relief I felt with her in the nursing home even though I do not like her being there.
My "placement" criteria was always "incontience or violence". My Mom has neither and her mind is good - but she is physically disabled due to arthritis and needs help to get up, down, bathroom and basically everything else.
You are right - neither homecare or placement are easy. My best to you and to Bette - your journey is surely a tough one.

Ask yourself this. "If I am ever in a similar condition, do I want my children to bear such a burden in order to take care of me?"
Think about it. What would be the best solution for the entire family?
What would be best for the teenagers?
What will happen if the caretaker becomes so stressed out that she/he is no longer able to function?
No matter what you do, or don't do, there will be problems. There is no "good" way to handle the situation. It has to be what suits your family best. Which/Who comes first???

South Africa: Mandela making progress in hospital
More News from Associated Press
JOHANNESBURG — Nelson Mandela is making "steady progress" while being treated for a recurring lung infection and he had a full breakfast on Friday, South African authorities said.
The office of President Jacob Zuma released a statement in which it said the former president and anti-apartheid leader was in good spirits after being taken late Wednesday to a hospital in the capital, Pretoria.
"The doctors report that he is making steady progress. He remains under treatment and observation in hospital," the statement said.
"We would like to repeat our appeal for the media and the public to respect the privacy of Madiba and his family," it said, using Mandela's clan name, a term of affection.
It is 94-year-old Mandela's third trip to a hospital since December. At that time, he spent three weeks in a hospital in Pretoria, where he was treated for a lung infection and had a procedure to remove gallstones. Earlier this month, he was hospitalized overnight for what authorities said was a successful, scheduled medical test.
The Nobel Peace Prize laureate has been particularly vulnerable to respiratory problems since contracting tuberculosis during his 27-year imprisonment for fighting white racist rule in his country.
President Barack Obama said Thursday he was concerned about Mandela's health, but noted he was as strong physically as he has been in leadership and character. Obama said he was sending his thoughts and prayers to Mandela, and he described him as a hero and an inspiration who gave everything to his people.
Zuma's office said Thursday that doctors were acting with extreme caution because of the advanced age of Mandela, who has become increasingly frail in recent years.
Mandela, who became South Africa's first black president in 1994, is a revered figure in his homeland, which has named buildings and other places after him and uses his image on national bank notes.

KODERMA (JHARKHAND): A case of rape and abetment to suicide has been filed against the young journalist boyfriend of the 22-year-old Delhi-based journalist Nirupama Pathak, an alleged victim of "honour killing", following charges levelled by her arrested mother. The FIR was lodged by the police on a direction from a court and investigations are on, said Koderma Superintendent of Police G. Kranthi Kumar here on Saturday.
Taking cognisance of Subha Pathak's petition, Chief Judicial Magistrate N. K. Agarwal asked the Tilaya Police to file the FIR under Indian Penal Code Sections 306 (abetment to suicide), 376 (rape), 506 (criminal intimidation) and 420 (cheating) against Priyabhanshu Ranjan. All the sections are non-bailable. Asked if Ranjan, also a Delhi-based journalist, would be arrested as all the sections were non-bailable, Mr. Kumar said, "We are in the process of investigation now." - PTI
Staff Reporter in New Delhi adds: A Jharkhand Police team here in the Capital to investigate the case questioned the common friends of Priyabhanshu and Nirupama and also two of her colleagues on Saturday. The questioning took place at the Pushp Vihar office of the South Delhi Special Staff.
Priyabhanshu was questioned for two days earlier this week.
Meanwhile, students and faculty of Indian Institute of Mass Communication along with social activists and civil society organisations observed a candlelight vigil at Jantar Mantar and demanded a CBI probe into the journalist's death.
Neelam Katara, mother of Nitish Katara who was killed in 2002, said: "We have to fight against honour killings. Parents cannot emotionally traumatise their children for their choices."
Alleging that the police were not well equipped to conduct "modern investigations", she said: "The media too is guilty of encouraging caste-related injustices. Many publications in their matrimonial columns highlight marriages on caste basis."
Attributing Nirupama's death to a "dastardly act", Indian Women's Press Corps general secretary Ritambhara Shastri said: "Honour killings are symbolic of a deep-rooted social malaise and we must react strongly to it."

Hearts & Minds: NAMI Highlights Meditation, Yoga and Other 'Mindfulness' Practices for Mental Illness
ARLINGTON, Va., Sept. 1 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) is providing a new dimension to its Hearts & Minds initiative, an educational program that promotes "mind and body" health practices for individuals who live with mental illness.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20100216/NAMILOGO)
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20100216/NAMILOGO)
A new "Mindfulness" section on NAMI's Hearts and Minds website includes a 10-minute video of guided mediation, along with information about other holistic methods to complement medication and therapy and help a person to gain greater control over the recovery process.
Practices covered include basic meditation, guided imagery, yoga and Tai Chi, and creative outlets such as writing, art, music and dance.
Ed Knight of Colorado Springs says he uses meditation to help control hearing voices and panic attacks: "Without the combination of meditation and medication, I would be in and out of the hospital very frequently. I haven't had a panic attack in several years and I have ceased to hear voices."
"Medication and therapy are crucial to recovery, but everyone's experience is different," said NAMI Executive Director Michael Fitzpatrick. "Hearts and Minds offers a holistic dimension for managing mental illness. Some practices will work for some people, but not for everyone. In the end it comes down to what works for you."
"Outlets for self-awareness exist in every state and local community. They can be pursued individually or in groups. Every outlet can make a contribution to recovery," Fitzpatrick said.
Mental illnesses include major depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and other diagnoses.
About NAMI
NAMI is the nation's largest grassroots mental health organization dedicated to improving the lives of individuals and families affected by mental illness. NAMI has over 1100 state and local affiliates that engage in research, education, support and advocacy.

|Make: Bertram Yacht
|Model: Bahia Mar
|Year: 1969
|Length: 31 ft. 0 in.
|Location: Bristol, RI
|Type: Express Fisherman Boats
|Price: $30,000.00
|Listing: 1436606
1969 Bertram 31 Bahia Mar
This 31' Bertram Bahia Mar is located in Rhode Island.
Arguably the most famous modern boat design ever built, the 31 Bertram has achieved a near cult status. Designed by Ray Hunt and built by Richard Bertram, the 31 was in production for 25 years.
The 31 Bahia Mar has a large fishing cockpit and comfortable cabin accommodations with berths for four.
This is an original 31 bahia mar. She has undergone tank removal and under deck refit and paint, has brand new glassteck cockpit which has not yet been installed, has all teak trim and emblems intact and in good condition.
The hull has never been painted and doesnt need to be it is in very nice condition. Bottom was completely stripped and is awaiting finishing. Seller has two optional Hino 6 cyl turbo diesels with zf gears awaiting install by new owner or we can do it for you. The engines have 350 hours on them and work nicely they are 250 hp each.
Perhaps the best features of the 31 are it's low center of gravity, large cockpit, deep-v hull, and hard chine, all of which make this boat one of the best fishing platforms on the water today. It is obvious that the 31 is designed essentially as a fishing boat and creature comforts were considered as secondary considerations. The 31 also makes an excellent dive boat.
Estimates are that, under 2,000 Bertram 31's were manufactured, and that somewhere in the vicinity of 90% of them are still in use.
This is your chance to own one of them.
You can grab this classic boat for the price as shown before she gets updated and the price goes up accordingly.
Purchasing this Bertram 31' for this price gives you the option of having the work continued under your direction, or you can take her as is, and have any work done yourself.
Come take a look.

She placed a baby Jesus inside the manger and put a shimmering star above his head.
"It's called 'the Christmas miracle'" Paige explained, admiring her creation.
Paige and about a dozen other Immaculate Conception School students gathered this past week to create Christmas ornaments during their new after-school art club. The group meets for two hours almost every month to produce in-depth art projects.
At its first gathering Oct. 28, students concocted colorful duct tape crafts.
Art teacher Joni Hoffman established Immaculate Conception School's art club this fall to give artistically gifted students a new outlet for their creativity, she said.
"There are always after-school opportunities for students who excel in sports, music and academics, but not necessarily the arts," Hoffman said. "I wanted to be able to go above and beyond what we can do in a regular school day, so I decided to offer some more complex projects for those students in a longer time frame"
So far, the program has been well-received.
Students this past week said they particularly enjoyed the freedom the club offered.
While Paige built her "Christmas miracle" ornament, third-grader Jacob Weldon made an athletic clay snowman, wielding a football and wearing a red Port Clinton football jersey.
"I should have made him a helmet with a face mask" Jacob joked with his friends.
Meanwhile, fourth-graders Ella Roberts and Marcella Brenner decorated their snowmen in stylish scarves and hats.
"I like art club because you get to make it your own, one-of-a-kind" Ella said. "It's a lot of fun"

Janata Party president Subramanian Swamy on Saturday disputed the statement of Union Minister for Communications and Information Technology A. Raja that the Central government made Rs.70,000 crore from the allocation of the 2G spectrum, saying that it was based "purely on presumption." The whole issue lacked fairness and transparency, he told journalists here.
He said the World Intellectual Property Organisation had rejected patent for the Election Commission's electronic voting machines stating that it could be rigged. He will present the document in the Delhi High Court when the case against EVMs comes up for hearing on August 25.
Dr. Swamy was made the convener of the legal cell of the Hindu Dharma Acharya Sabha which would consist of lawyers who would fight for the rights of Hindus.
The cell would be formed first in Andhra Pradesh followed by Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Similarly, a Hindu Parliamentary Forum, consisting of 50 MPs irrespective of party affiliation, would be formed to raise issues concerning Hindus in Parliament, he added.

Archers gain Final 4; Eagles oust Warriors
JERON Teng knocked in six straight points inside the final two minutes, including four clutch free throws, as La Salle pulled off a 57-55 decision over National University yesterday at Mall of Asia Arena to claim a Final Four berth in the UAAP men's basketball tournament.
Teng's putback of his own miss with 44.8 seconds left gave La Salle the lead for good, 56-55, and propelled the Green Archers to a share of top spot with the Bulldogs and idle Far Eastern U at 9-4.
Ateneo earlier stayed in the Final Four hunt after eliminating University of the East, 77-72, minus suspended coach Bo Perasol.
Down by 10 at halftime, the Blue Eagles rallied behind Kiefer Ravena and Chris Newsome to forge a tie for fourth with idle University of Santo Tomas at 7-5.
While the first three semifinalists will fight for the twice-to-beat bonus, last year's finalists Ateneo and UST will dispute the last Final Four berth in the last two weeks of eliminations.
Teng, who holds a miserable 47-percent clip from the free throw line, nailed four straight free throws before scoring the decisive basket that gave the Archers that 56-55 edge.
"After the first round I just told them to be mentally tougher—everything's mental in our preparation," said La Salle coach Juno Sauler.
Ravena pumped in 22 points, including six in a 12-2 salvo at the start of the third period that tied the game at 46 after a double-digit deficit, 34-44, at the break.
Newsome took over in the final quarter, firing nine of his 19 points to help prop up the Eagles by 10 points, 72-62, going into the last four minutes.
"We have a veteran group of guys and we have lots of players who know what this last homestretch is all about," said Ateneo assistant coach Sandy Arespacochaga.
The scores:
First Game
ATENEO 77—Ravena 22, Newsome 19, Buenafe 9, Elorde 7, Tiongson 6, Pessumal 5, Erram 5, Golla 4, Tolentino 0, Enriquez 0.
UE 72—Sumang 27, Mammie 11, Jumao-as 10, Alberto 10, Noble 5, Santos 4, Sumido 2, Hernandez 2, Javier 1, Olayon 0, Pujante 0, Flores 0, Casajeros 0.
Quarters: 14-16, 34-44, 56-55, 77-72
Second Game
LA SALLE 57—Teng 21, Perkins 18, Revilla 6, Van Opstal 5, Salem 3, Vosotros 2, Reyes 2, N. Torres , T. Torres 0, Montalbo 0, Dela Paz 0, Bolick 0.
NU 55—Parks 19, Alolino 15, Villamor 7, Jvillonar 5, Mbe 4, Rosario 3, Neypes 2, Roño 0, Khobuntin 0, Javelona 0, Alejandro 0.
Quarters: 10-14, 25-31, 42-45, 57-55

from the Star Telegram,
People who know Eddie Gossage say he could sell ice to an Eskimo. What the NHL is interested in investigating is if the TMS (Texas Motor Speedway) president can sell ice hockey to apathetic fans.
Sources confirmed that a headhunter has contacted Gossage on behalf of the NHL to gauge his interest in joining the league in a yet-to-be-determined executive position.

Lucca Comics & Games
Coordinates: 43°48′N 10°30′E / 43.8°N 10.5°E
|Lucca Comics and Games
A Lucca Comics pavilion, near the San Michele in Foro basilica, in 2007.
|240,000 by 2014[1]
|Organized by
|Comune of Lucca, through the limited company "Lucca Comics & Games Srl"[2]
Lucca Comics & Games is an annual comic book and gaming convention in Lucca, Tuscany (Italy). It takes place, usually, at the end of October. It is the largest comics festival in Europe, and the second biggest in the world after the Comiket.
History and organization[edit]
Launched in 1966 as Salone Internazionale del Comics, the event grew in size and importance over the years. It began in one small square in the center of Lucca, then in the 1980s was moved to a sports center outside the city walls. Actually, the Salone Internazionale del Comics was launched in 1965 in Bordighera, then transferred to Lucca until 1992 and ended in Rome from 1995 to 2005. After the Salone internazionale del Comics ended in Lucca, they launched a new convention called simply Lucca Comics that was a reprise of the old one. In 1996 it changed its name in Lucca Comics & Games. In 2006, for the 40th anniversary, the fair was moved back to the city center, with numerous tents and pavilions arranged in different squares within and outside the walls of this medieval city.

SEATTLE The Washington State Patrol is having a recruiting problem. It's not that they can't find people who want to be troopers. The problem is many of the candidates, particularly younger ones, can't pass the physical fitness requirements.
There are currently 34 trooper vacancies. In addition, 93 current officers will be eligible to retire on Jan. 1, 2011. Since the combined hiring and training processes take about 12 months, WSP is making finding new troopers a top priority.
But it seems finding qualified candidates who can also pass the WSP physical fitness test is a problem. The test consists of pushups, situps and a 1.5 mile run. Surprisingly to the state patrol, it's many of the younger candidates that are failing.
Here are the stats for 2010 so far:
Ages 20 - 29: 66 percent passed
Ages 30 - 39: 73 percent passed
Ages 40 - 49: 92 percent passed
Ages 50 - 59: Only 1 tested and failed
Ages 20 - 29: 33 percent passed
Ages 30- 39: 40 percent passed
Ages 40 - 49: 100 percent passed
Ages 50 -59: 50 percent passed
In an effort to reach its hiring goals, WSP says it will hold what it calls special, decentralized testing in Shelton on April 27 and in Kennewick on April 30. WSP says it plans to stretch its resources to condense the traditional six month hiring process to two months.

The Ohio History Connection's History Fund is a competitive matching grants program funded by Ohioans through the "tax check-off" on the Ohio state income tax return.
In 2011, the "tax check-off" became the first and only source dedicated solely to supporting history-related projects in Ohio. The more donations OHS receives through the tax check-off, the more grants it can make through the History Fund.
The Ohio History Tax Check-Off and the History Fund Need Your Support Now
Why? The Ohio General Assembly recently established a new threshold for tax check-off programs like ours. The Ohio History Connection needs to generate at least $150,000 each year or the Ohio History tax check-off, and the History Fund grants program it supports could be jeopardized.
For information about the Ohio History tax check-off and donating to Ohio History on your tax form, visit ohiohistory.org/makehistory.
To help promote the Ohio History tax check-off and History Fund with press and marketing materials, go to: ohiohistory.org/makehistorycampaign NOTCREATEDYET
