Coast Guard doesn't generally threaten to sink ships at the pier do they? Anyone know of such a thing? More likely, if they wanted the ship somewhere else, they would have called in a towing company and moved the ship some other place (at Bounty's expense) that they deemed more safe.
And another story, Walbridge single handedly redocked the boat after all lines but one were cast off by drunks from a bar. I don't believe that either.
Just like, I don't believe he would sail near the eyewall on the eastern quadrant of a storm. Of course, I guess you can tell enough tales and eventually begin to believe them.
Sorry for the outcome, but the captain just made a bad call. As for ships going to sea in storms, sure they do. Reference in one article listed four cruise ships which did....all huge steel monsters which when they left port wouldn't have made 5 kts....instead they would have cranked on the turns and got far away from the worse part. Also, they likely left early and moving at 15-20 kts over several days they could be well away from the worse parts of the storm. And they didn't do it with novices and handyman for engineer, and only a couple of professionals...one of whom (captain) erroneously decided his ship could manage the storm.
Likewise, the Navy got underway doing more or less same thing as the cruise ships...big steel ships, lots of power and speed, back up systems, and built to modern standards.
Yes, the story seems odd to me but I even if eventually exaggerated I don't believe that is all ********. This is not one of those stories reported by a journalist based on hear say. This does not come from a Journalist but from someone that has probably direct knowledge of the situation. The article is sighed by Tom Murray, the former president of the Fall River Chamber Foundation, the organization that brought the Bounty to Fall River.

Earlier today we posted the teaser trailer for the new adaptation of Carrie, originally a book and then-movie by Stephen King. And while it left me a little on the 'meh' side, it made me think back to all the great adaptations that have been done of King's work. And if you don't think there's been a lot, just check out his imdb.page. My internet crashed just trying to load everything.
That's because King's one of the most prolific authors working. When not working on novels, he pumps out novellas and short stories faster than Ben Kingsley in that scene from Schindler's List. Not all of them are great (I'm looking at you Dreamcatcher) and some have little to do with the source material at all and just use the title to bring some of that King-cache with them to the box office (oh, Lawnmower Man, didn't see you there), but some of the greatest films of the last thirty-five years have been spawned by King's pen.
His movies and mini-series have won Academy Awards, Golden Globes and Emmys. When done right, the master of horror's work provides epic, sprawling films that terrify, educate and enlighten us (I learned how to crawl through a river of human feces simply by watching Shawshank).
So while we have to wait until April to see if the new Carrie can even hold a candle to the original, here are the 10 Best Stephen King Adaptations.

MadeByGrandad is taking a short break.
MadeByGrandad is STILL on hold and I'm really sorry friends, but I did need the important (and major) surgery which took place over Christmas and New Year. This has put me out of action making bags for a little while and I didn't want to risk receiving orders and letting people down. The outcome of the operation has been good and I continue on the road to a full recovery - a recent meeting with the surgeon was all good although he did stress that recovery was 'a good six months' given the scale and complexity of his work. Everyone tells me I am getting back to my old self (is that a good thing?). My sincere apologies for any inconvenience I am causing - I hate delaying good customers but it can't be helped. I will be back just as soon as I'm able - it is now looking like the beginning of June. Please stick with me and come back soon.

After 1 serving of a meal, I drink a glass of water and wait the 20 minutes before allowing myself to get more, even if I still feel hungry. Usually once the time is up I realize that I actually don't want the food.
Life will be a breeze with a small kitchen scale--no more 2nd guessing! I bought a nice one at Walmart for around $20. It measures pounds, ounces, grams, etc., which is perfect for calorie planning meals or portion control. How did I live without this?!?
1/year. I noticed that its effect is accumulative -- 3rd year i was healthier during flu season than 2nd and 2nd year healthier than the 1st year I had a flu shot.
Keep something healthy and convenient at the front of your fridge so you can grab it quickly when you need something NOW. Whether you pre-package your own portions or use grocery store convenience foods like carrot snack packs, it will make a huge difference in what you eat if it's something easy for you to grab.

Verse ft. OJ Da Juiceman - Pretty Girls
Artist: Verse
Featuring: OJ Da Juiceman
Producer: Sham
Album: Stories of a Bachelor
Avg Rating: 2.8 ( 29 votes )
Our very own Richard once said he believes that Verse is an r&b robot whose only mission it to sing about sex, and after listening to his latest offering Pretty Girls - making its premiere right here on the Booth - I'm hard pressed to disagree. Seemingly undaunted both by the fact that Wale just dropped a single with the same name and his guest artist OJ da Juiceman (a.k.a. the poor man's Gucci Mane) was widely panned on Verse's last track Buy You a Round (Remix), Verse heads right back into the fray with a pop-oriented cut featuring bouncing, Dream-eqsue production from Sham of The Jugganauts, silky smooth, island-tinged vocals and a barely listenable lyrical contribution from OJ (I'm sorry to keep picking on the man but it's true). Just once I'd like to see an artist make a song for the ugly girls. Pretty Girls is off Verse's apparently aptly-titled upcoming album Stories of a Bachelor, due out in the summer of 2010.

Occupational Science Associates Degree Programs
Discover information about occupational science associate's-degree programs. Learn about educational prerequisites, coursework and employment outlook statistics.
Essential Information
Occupational science is a multi-disciplinary field wherein professionals help individuals who have physical, mental and emotional disabilities to perform daily functions independently, whether at home or work. Associate's degree programs in occupational science or occupational therapy take two years to complete.
Students of such occupational therapy programs are typically trained to work as assistants to occupational therapists that hold bachelor's or master's degrees. Candidates learn to provide rehabilitative services that improve memory, motor skills and problem-solving abilities. Students work as part of rehabilitative teams to create, implement and evaluate treatment plans. Occupational science associate's degree programs require extensive fieldwork under the supervision of occupational therapists. Additionally, these programs may prepare students for state mandated licensure exams.
Education Prerequisites
Applicants to occupational science associate's degree programs must hold a high school diploma or GED and take the ACT of SAT exam. Some schools require a separate admission application for occupational science associate's degree programs. A grade point average of at least 2.5 is typically required. It is recommended that applicants be in good physical shape because occupational therapy assistants are required to lift patients and stand for long periods of time.
Program Coursework
Curricula for occupational science associate's degree programs combine courses in social and behavioral sciences, general education and occupational science. Common courses include the following:
- Psychology
- Physiology
- Anatomy
- Human development
- Biology
- Kinesiology
- Pediatric occupational therapy
- Adult occupational therapy
- Group occupational therapy
Employment Outlook and Salary Info
Due to the aging U.S. population, employer demand for occupational therapy assistants is expected to increase 43% from 2010-2020, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Jobs will be available in hospitals, schools, rehabilitation centers, residential care facilities, nursing homes, hospices and adult day care centers. Occupational therapy assistants earn a median annual salary of $53,240 in 2012.
Continuing Education Information
Students who earn an associate's degree in the field of occupational science may transfer credits to a bachelor's or master's degree program in occupational science or related field. Most states require aspiring occupational therapists to pass a certification exam administered by the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT). Graduates of occupational science associate's degree programs receive significant on-the-job training.

Radical-looking RoundTail bike claims radically smoother ride
By Ben Coxworth
April 13, 2011
If you banged a pole and a hoop against the road, which one would transmit more vibrations to your hand? Given that the flexing action of the hoop would absorb some of the energy, it's probably safe to assume that the pole would give you a numb hand quicker. Well, Canadian cyclist Lou Tortola applied the same sort of logic to the frame design of his Tortola RoundTail road bicycle. Where most other bikes would have a rear triangle consisting of straight seat stays, chain stays and a seat tube, the RoundTail simply has two shock-absorbing joined rings.
Tortola came up with the idea last year, after noticing that many of his fellow long-time cyclists had to quit the sport due to discomfort or injuries caused by riding. Already possessing a background in metals and fabrication, he proceeded to build some sample rings to put his concept to the test. After establishing that there was something to his idea, he got custom bike builder Paul Taylor to create a prototype RoundTail.
The frame was then sent to Boulder, Colorado's Microbac Laboratories, where it was tested for horizontal and vertical loading durability fatigue, and impact strength – on all of which it receiving a passing grade. It was also reportedly found to have ten times the vertical flex of a traditional frame, and over sixty times the shock absorption. Lou additionally suspects that the rings will prove to be more aerodynamic than the straight tubes that they replace.
Of course, road-riding speed freaks don't necessarily want a lot of flex, as any frame that absorbs road vibrations also has a way of soaking up pedaling power. While the RoundTail undoubtedly involves some trade-off in this area, Tortola insists that his bike retains the lateral stiffness and pedaling efficiency of regular bicycles.
The rings do add some weight to the frame, although it's reportedly a negligible amount. "The bike you see in the image weighed in at 17.2 lbs [7.8 kg]," Lou told us. "Material for the RoundTail might weigh 250 grams more than a traditional diamond frame... But at the end, the benefits outweigh that difference for certain."
There's no word on pricing or availability as of yet, although Tortola plans to have titanium, carbon fiber, mountain and hybrid versions of the bike ready for the Interbike trade show in Las Vegas this September. The prototype was officially unveiled at the San Diego Custom Bicycle Show last week.

and if not the front also, then why not the handle grips?David Larson
This rear triangle suspension concept has been executed in a couple of modern bike designs. Softride, which ceased production the early part of this century, and TitanFlex which started making their bikes in the early 1990\'s www.titanflexbikes.comTom Piszkin

I'm laid back, honest, fun to be with, and fit. On my spare days, I like having coffee/tea while reading/meditating, cooking and doing simple outdoor activities, such as running, hiking, or working in my backyard etc. I enjoy learning, traveling, listening live music, and appreciating authentic places/food. I also love quality "me" time. Most of my travels I made alone. Of course it would be much meaningful to share with someone special. After living here long enough, it's time to call SA as home :) I love Texas indeed :) I'm here to look for that special ONE who has the same intention and wants to be with a nice accompany to share life together. I'd like to be with a man who lives a balanced lifestyle. Be fit, kind, and honest. He must really care of himself and whom he loves. I grew up in a loving family, value a sense of closeness, compassion, and forgiving. Please attach pictures when you email me. P.S. If you can't enjoy what life has to offer, I am probably not a right match for you. Good luck!

I always appreciate a particular setting. Whether it is manmade or naturally exist, it belongs to a place, speaks about an atmosphere or a story. That is a hot spot for me :)
Occasionally, I watch a couple of good shows on PBS. I like Jacques Pépin´s, Rick Bayless´s, Steven Raichlen's, or Kimchi Chronicles sometimes. I am a fan of Charlie Rose show. Lately I addicte to This Old House, lol.
I enjoy watching The River Monsters and SNL if I can catch the showtime. I am amazed by the spectacular places and bravery of the host, Jeremy in TRM, and.... SNL gives me just a good enough laugh by the end of the day/week..:)

Chart of the Day: Deficit Reduction So Far = $2.4 Trillion
Michael Linden and Michael Ettlinger provide us today with a handy chart of all the deficit reduction we've implemented over the past couple of years. In all, we've reduced spending by $1.8 trillion and increased taxes by $600 billion, for a total of $2.4 trillion. More details here. This may not be the grand bargain of Beltway dreams, but it's pretty good progress in a short period of time.
And three-quarters of it has been from spending cuts. If you're wondering why President Obama thinks the sequestration negotiations should include a balance of both spending reductions and tax increases, now you know.

|Zamari Kamgar (Founder & CEO)[2]
Kam Air (Persian: کام ایر) is an airline headquartered in Kabul, Afghanistan. It operates scheduled domestic passenger services and regional international services. Kabul International Airport serves as its main hub.[3]
The airline was founded on 31 August 2003 by Zamari Kamgar. It was the first privately owned passenger airline in Afghanistan.[4] Its first flight took off on 8 November 2003 on a route from Kabul to Herat and Mazari Sharif, using a Boeing 727. Kam Air's first plane was provided by General Abdul Rashid Dostum as payment for supplying Dostum's private militia with fuel and food.[5]
Kam Air has its headquarters in Kabul, opposite the Embassy of the People's Republic of China.[6] At one time it was located in the Kabul Business Centre in Shahr-e-Naw, Kabul, where a ticket office has operated since 2012.[6][7] Zamari Kamgar is the Chairman and Chief Executive, Farid Peykar the senior Vice President, Timor Shahab the Vice President and Head of Flight Operations, and Parwiz Kamgar the Finance Manager.
Kam Air had announced the launch of European operations commencing in August 2010, with Vienna to receive service, followed by London (Gatwick).[8] However, according to Reuters, both routes were supposedly cancelled by British and Austrian authorities due to aircraft safety issues. Effective 24 November 2010, all Afghan carriers were banned from flying to the European Union because of the country's poor civilian aviation safety record.[9] In 2014, Kam Air was ranked as one of the worlds least safe by AirlineRatings.com[who?].[10]
Kam Air serve the following at October 2014;
- Afghanistan
- Bost – Bost Airport
- Kabul – Kabul International Airport (hub)
- Kandahar – Kandahar International Airport
- Herat – Herat International Airport
- Mazar-i-Sharif – Mazar-i-Sharif Airport
- Tarin Kowt – Tarin Kowt Airport
- India
- Tajikistan
- United Arab Emirates
The airline plans to expand its route schedule to include flights to Ankara and Istanbul, Turkey; Baku, Azerbaijan; Baghdad and Najaf, Iraq; and Hangzhou, China. It further is looking to re-introduce its route to Urumqi, China and Moscow, Russia, as well as to add flights to Europe and the United States.
Kam previously served Jalalabad, Kunduz, Faizabad, Maimana, London-Gatwick, Vienna, Peshawar, Islamabad, Mashhad, Tehran, Almaty and Urumqi. The airline currently serves various routes based on greater profitability:[11]
The Kam Air fleet consists of the following aircraft (as of October 2014):[12]
|In fleet
|Airbus A320-214
|Antonov An-24RV
|Antonov An-26B
|Boeing 747-200F
|Boeing 767–200
|McDonnell Douglas MD-82
|McDonnell Douglas MD-83
|McDonnell Douglas MD-87
Kam Air previously operated the following aircraft:[13]
- Boeing 737-200
- Boeing 737-300
- Boeing 737-800
- Boeing 767-200ER[14]
- Douglas DC-8-63F[15]
- Yakovlev Yak-40[16]
Incidents and accidents[edit]
- On 3 February 2005, Kam Air Flight 904, a Boeing 737-200 operated by Phoenix Aviation, flying from Herat International Airport in western Afghanistan, vanished from radar screens on approach to Kabul International Airport in poor weather. The disappearance sparked a massive ANA search operation for the 96 passengers and 8 crew. The wreckage of the plane was found on 5 February 2005 in the mountains east of Kabul. All 104 people aboard were killed.[17]
- On 9 August 2009, a Kam Air plane bound for the Ürümqi Diwopu International Airport, China was refused permission to land and diverted to Kandahar International Airport, in southern Afghanistan after an earlier alleged bomb threat.[18][19]
- On 11 August 2010, Douglas DC-8-63F YA-VIC suffered a tailstrike on take-off from Manston Airport, United Kingdom, destroying an approach light.[20] The aircraft was operating an international cargo flight to Buenos Aires, Argentina via the Cape Verde Islands. The incident was caused by the aircraft being 25,700 pounds (11,700 kg) overweight due to excess fuel load. After being informed of the mishap, the crew continued to Cape Verde. An inspection there confirmed the tailstrike, though analysis of the strike indicator showed the plane was still safe. The incident was investigated by the Air Accidents Investigation Branch, which made various safety recommendations. Kam Air was subsequently banned from operating within the European Union. The three crew involved were also dismissed, and Kam Air announced that it would withdraw its two DC-8s from service.[21]

The session is co-sponsored by the Marie Curie Initial Training Network NEMOH (www.nemoh-itn.eu).
The limits of volcanology are currently being expanded through quantitative approaches, employed to investigate volcanoes, understand their dynamics, and forecast their hazards. Increasing resources of computing power, new analytical methods and experimental facilities are advancing and deepening our understanding of magmatic processes. Direct observations by various geophysical and geochemical instruments are providing important constraints of subsurface magma movements and eruption processes.

Howto: Make your Facebook business page visible to non Facebook Users
63 Comments · Posted by admin in Free Tips & Tricks
This article addresses a common problem among Facebook business pages, and Facebook groups.
Scenario is this: Visitors try and access your facebook business page but instead they are greeted with a Facebook login/signup page. This can be changed!
Whats this article all about?
By default, a visitor must have a Facebook account and be logged into to see your business pages. If they do not have a Facebook account, or are not logged in, then Facebook will display a registration/sign-in page. This isn't ideal, first impressions count. That's why we worked out how to make your facebook business page public and we decided to share the knowledge for anyone else in a similar situation.
Many people cant work out why their facebook pages are not visible to the general public. For example, you have just got your new facebook username, and put a link to it on your website, only to discover that if a user is not logged into facebook, then they don't see your facebook page. Need more clarification? Here are some pictures:
|PROBLEM: When you visited http://facebook.com/OpalCreations (or your business page) you were greeted with this page
|SOLUTION: After you make the fix below, pubilc, non logged in facebook users can now see your business page in all its glory (if it has any!)
Why can't non logged in users see my Facebook page?
The secret is……… your page's privacy settings are set too strictly (Not your fault, Facebook sets this by default).
Really, only one select box is controlling your facebook business page's visibility to the masses of unregistered and unauthenticated users (Assuming there is anyone left without a Facebook account).
The culprit select box in question is titled "Age restrictions". By default it is set to a "safe" age restriction. This means, if a user is not logged into their Facebook account, then Facebook does not know how old the user is and therefore cannot show your facebook page as you may have inappropriate content.
How do I make my Facebook business page visible to the public?
There is one simple fix to allow all users to view your Facebook pages when they are not authenticated. In principle, you need to set your facebook page permissions to have no age restrictions. I have split this into 3 steps for your simplicity. To complete these steps you will need to be the Admin of the Facebook page (Business page or personal page).
Step 1) Access your Facebook page and click "Edit Page"
You have to be editing the relevant Facebook page's settings and permissions as there is no point setting your own user settings!
Step 2) Set the age restriction to anyone (13+)
This means anyone can access your page, so, when a non logged in user accesses your page, then there is now no longer a need to hide your page or validate/authenticate the user.
Step 3) Save your settings to make your Facebook page publicly accessible!
You need to click "Save Settings" to apply your new fix.
All done! You can now log out of your facebook account completely and then try and access your Facebook page using your page's URL. Voila, you will now see your page as opposed to the Facebook homepage!
Thanks, but why would Facebook restrict my page in the First place?
There are probably many reasons, however the ones that make sense to us are as follows:
- It encourages non-facebook users to sign-up so the user can see your content – thus expanding Facebook's network
- Protection to minors – Unauthenticated users maybe of any age, therefore if you have something that is not suitable for certain ages groups on your page it could cause dispute. Therefore Facebook encourages the user to login/sign-up so that Facebook can display the content if they are old enough.
- Some developer made the default setting not thinking about its repercussions!
After all, we all want to use Facebook to advertise our businesses and websites; bringing Facebook users to us. However Facebook wants the opposite – links on your websites pointing to Facebook forcing users to register to see your content.
That's it!
If you need any more help, or have any other thoughts, please do comment and we will endeavour to answer your queries.

My FB business page "Brandos Pizzeria Cafe" is not searchable in Google by its name and the word Facebook together i.e. Brandos Pizzeria Cafe Facebook. It is searchable though when you dont have spaces i.e. BrandosPizzeriaCafe Facebook. Help! Do you know how I fix this problem? Any advice would be much appreicated.
Robert · February 26, 2014 at 12:13 am
Nice work! Would never have known the cause of the issue if you had not taken the time to write this guide.
Brooke · February 17, 2014 at 6:49 am
I have done this and it still doesn't work! Is there any other advice someone can give? Thanks
Dennis · February 21, 2014 at 4:15 am
It used to work, but just lately its doesn't, and I've confirmed it by logging out and then pasting in url. Age restriction is Everyone but you have to be logged in to see a page, and even the "get link "option for photos is only available for my personal page and not my business pages.
kyle · February 21, 2014 at 9:27 pm
You have to make sure your page is visible to people in every country, AND that you have no age restrictions. this should do the trick!
Kris Griffin · July 28, 2014 at 8:56 pm
Can't THANK you enough for this information. I have been trying to figure this out for MONTHS! Your help is truly appreciated.
Todd Lloyd, DC · January 22, 2014 at 6:38 pm
The age restriction was exactly the problem that was happening with our Facebook page.
Previously, when you clicked on that link, it would take you to a generic Facebook log in page. Now, by bringing the age restriction down to 13, everyone can see it.
marty · October 3, 2013 at 12:52 pm
Hi, I have same problem. non users can't find my page. they have to log on etc.
Can you help me?
Jose · September 4, 2013 at 5:06 pm
Thank you
Pam · September 2, 2013 at 4:17 pm
I cannot find my business on facebook without being in my facebook page. I tried the suggestions you gave, but it appears that all of those settings are correct. Please help.
Thank hyou
chris bean · February 17, 2014 at 6:32 pm
I also find that if you select certain countries, it will hide your facebook page as well. I selected two countries and when i changed to nothing, i got online without being logged in. Hope this helps someone
IBV · May 31, 2013 at 9:22 am
Thanks so much for this – I set my permissions for Anyone 13+ and ensured no countries were specified and now when I check the page for our new charity
http://www.facebook.com/WedAid it shows all posts – have a look
Gemma · May 12, 2013 at 7:31 pm
Ahhh… I have tried all your tips but my site is not able to view to public only when I log in – getting so stressed out! I have done all I can think off. My page –
Please help!
Dan · May 14, 2013 at 10:24 am
Ok, easy way to do it is to tick the box that says "block content from people in this country" (or something along those lines) and pick some random country no one has ever heard of (Christmas Island is mine at the moment)and save it.
kamol · March 28, 2014 at 12:28 pm
Its works! Thank you!
larry · May 8, 2013 at 10:36 am
I'm still having the same problem: this is my page: http://www.facebook.com/njateens
Ghio · April 23, 2013 at 4:32 pm
To complement your solution, also the country restriction needs to be left blanc. Cheers!
louise · March 18, 2013 at 1:47 am
Hi do you have any idea why I am unable to find this page on my iPhone facebook app?
it does not register at all.Please help
Jeanne · March 8, 2013 at 3:44 pm
Thanks for this!
I manage six Facebook pages under one login and although I drop-down and choose "Use Facebook as 123Page" I find that my page identity doesn't carry through when I attempt to add a comment on another business page – a page where comments are clearly permissible.
The avatar is just the blank head unless I'm posting to one of my other managed pages. I can choose the posting ID only on my pages, not on comment threads elsewhere.
Is there a way to fix this?
Robert Burns · February 28, 2013 at 3:08 pm
I am still awaiting response. It seems that you overhyped the ability to get out of FB prison; it seems that only some things can be made visible to non-FB users.
Roxanne · February 7, 2013 at 3:33 am
Ok I have tried them all and I still cant view my page when not logged in ! Also just a note, when I took out the country it defaults back to – Hide this page from viewers in these countries.
The page is http://www.facebook.com/goldenbeachnetballclub
ahimsauzi · March 2, 2014 at 2:15 am
Don't forget to remove any country restrictions if you'd like your page to be viewed by non-logged users.
Ulli Wulli · February 6, 2013 at 6:03 am
For a starter, my Groups page has no 'Edit Page' button. What now?

I'm a seventeen-year-old girl and ten months ago, I was diagnosed with a light form of pseudologica fantasia, usually known as mythomania. The basis of this illness is an addiction to telling lies. I'm seeing a therapist for this and she's a very kind and competent woman, but she has warned me that this illness is usually hard to cure and there are few known cases where the therapy was actually able to get rid of the problem. I'm doing a better job at keeping it under control than I used to but the urge is still there. I just keep it under wraps and tackle the illness on my own, with the support of my nuclear family. The thing is, one of my friends has recently expressed a romantic interest in me, and I would very much like to get involved in a relationship with him, but this would mean disclosing my problem to him, because of course I'm not going to enter a relationship without telling the other person involved about this first.
One of my favorite TV shows when I was a teenager was the series "Dawson's Creek." The series centered around best friends Joey and Dawson and portrayed their experiences from high school and into college as they made and lost friends, entered and left relationships, and grew up. The show was aired from 1998 to 2003 and was one of the most popular drama series of its time. It dealt very realistically with many issues that teens can be faced with, from bullying to dealing with a parents' divorce, and I think it did this so well that the lessons from the show are still applicable even today.
One of these lessons was about figuring out when you're ready for sex.
We often get questions here on Scarleteen from people who are thinking about becoming sexually active and don't know how to figure out whether they are ready for that step. Like so many aspects of sex, this "readiness" is something a lot of peers refer to but few can quite explain.
If you ask most people what it feels like to beRead more...
When I was growing up, I often turned to my mother for relationship advice. We had our differences, but we were close, and I valued her opinions. However, I also found myself grappling with many of the things she said, because in all of it one thing was clear: for her, the only kind of acceptable sexual relationships are monogamous, heterosexual, long-term commitments.
We first started having these conversations when I was around 14 years old, which was also when I first started to question my sexuality. From the start, I had some questions about this concept. What if I did not want to sleep with men at all? What if I did not feel interested in the marriage-and-kids thing?
A few years later, after two failed relationships (with the same wonderful person) and a lot of angst, I was fairly certain about two things: 1. I was pretty darn queer and 2. I wasn't cut out for monogamous, long-term relationships at the time. I did not feel comfortable within a relationship, no matter how awesomRead more...
It struck me today that folks might sometimes wonder why, with an organization focused on sexuality, sexual health, and sexual relationships, we spend quite a bit of time talking about friendship. We do it in articles and blogs, and we talk with users often in our direct services about their friendships.
What's that got to do with what we do?
A lot. Perhaps far more than you'd think.
For starters, we strongly feel that friendship is at the core of any and every excellent, happy, healthy relationship, whether we're talking about a friendship that doesn't have any romance or sex in it at all, or we're talking about romantic relationships, sexual relationships or both. We think a sound friendship also has an awful lot to do with healthy family relationships, mentorships, and pretty much any ongoing human interaction we could possibly have.
Our relationships with people will also tend to be fluid through our lives. Friends can become lovers, lovers can become friends or family. Our superRead more...
It's hard to say when things finally changed for me. All the pieces were there for a long time, waiting to fall into place, but I just wasn't ready to let go and watch them tumble down. The idea of having to put it all behind me scared me. The idea of losing such a close relationship. Of losing something so familiar.
My boyfriend's penis gets very sensitive after ejaculation. I've looked everywhere and all I found some information about a refractory period but I don't really understand what that means. Is his sensitivity, and maybe even pain, normal?
Since I was 19 I've had an annual PAP smear done. Never, until this year, has it been abnormal. I went in January of 2011 and then held off because since then I have had an IUD put in, Gardasil, and lost my health insurance. Once I had saved up enough to get my pap test this year it was May. About a week later my doctor called to make an appointment to discuss results. I made another appointment and went in and needed a colposcopy. Another week later she called again. And then I knew then something wasn't right, I've never had a doctor call me about results.

TROY — The Miami County Sheriff's Office executed a search warrant at the former Stouder Hospital building on Tuesday evening and arrested three individuals connected to a Troy burglary.
Miami County Sheriff's Office deputies arrested Jheramy Andress, 29, of Piqua, Nakesiah Alcorn, 30 of Troy, and Stephanie Ray-Lagrant, 23, of Troy, at the former Stouder Hospital building Tuesday following an investigation of a Troy burglary on July 20.
The trio stole a safe from a Troy home. The safe had several firearms inside. According to the investigation, the three traded the guns for heroin to a drug dealer in Dayton. Officials recovered the safe in a Dumpster at the facility.
"Our investigation revealed they were fueling their heroin habit with the stolen items," said Chief Deputy Dave Duchak. "They traded the firearms for heroin in Dayton. Our deputies and detectives have done an outstanding job."
Nakeisha Alcorn, 30, of Troy, was charged with second degree felony burglary, fourth degree felony safe cracking and fifth degree felony forgery and possession of criminal tools.
Jheramy Andress, 29, of Piqua, was charged with fourth degree felony safe cracking, second degree burglary and drug possession and drug abuse.
Stephanie Ray-Lagrant, 23, of Troy, charged with fourth degree safe cracking, second degree felony complicity to burglary and obstructing official business.
All three remain incarcerated at the Miami County Jail. All three have cash bonds for more than $70,000.

CHESAPEAKE-- A new report shows the condition of Deep Creek Bridge is getting worse and the structure needs to be replaced.
According to engineers, the sufficiency rating of the bridge dropped from about 60 percent to 40 percent, according to the Army Corps of Engineers.
The rating means there are elements of the bridge that need to be monitored, but it doesn't mean that it is likely to collapse.
While the bridge is not inherently unsafe, the bridge does not have enough lanes, adequate lane widths, or shoulder widths to serve the current traffic demand.
Every day, about 27,000 vehicles travel across the two-lane bridge on Moses Grandy Trail east of George Washington Highway.
The Deep Creek Bridge is 80 years old, built in 1934 to cross the Dismal Swamp Canal.
A design for the new proposed bridge is 90 percent complete, but there is not money available to start construction. The new bridge will be another draw bridge, still requiring lifts, officials said. Partial funding to start right-of-way acquisition was approved.
The construction cost estimate for the bridge replacement is being refined; however, based on the most recent design, total project funds in the amount of approximately $50 million would be needed for replacement of the new bridge.
'At this time, we do not know if this project will be funded for construction, as there are many projects throughout the country that also require construction funds,' Gerald Rogers, Army Corps of Engineers spokesperson said.
The federal government owns the Deep Creek Bridge and the Army Corps of Engineers is in charge of operation.
Virginia bridges must be inspected at least once every two years to look for signs of deterioration, including cracking concrete, deterioration of beams and rusting steal. Bridges with lower sufficiency ratings are inspected more frequently.

Big Head Village
Edit Page Last Edit: 2 years 2 months ago
Big Head Village is located inside of the 16 cube door. No one knows the actual name of the inhabitants of this area, but because of their taller heads we will refer to them as Big Heads until proven otherwise.
- In a room in the abandoned version of Big Head Village there is a glyph depicting what could be the ranks of the Big Heads society. It shows 4 plain Big Heads at the bottom of the triangle (which we can assume are the lower class) 3 Big Heads with head bands (middle class) 2 Big Heads with fez's (upper class or maybe protectors of the King) Note: in the version of Big Head Village that was populated, there was only one with a fez and he was very old. This may give reason to believe that this order could be dying out. Lastly, the one at the top with a crown, whom one can only presume is the King. Take note that although there was a throne in the populated verion of the village there was no king (if the Big Heads with the fez's were gaurdians of the King, and because there was no king, we can suspect that the reason that there was only Big Head with the fez, is because there was no king there was no reason to replace the Fez wearers.)

Billed as prohibiting and punishing the "willful misclassification" of employees as independent contractors, S.B. 459 would impose stiff civil penalties for each violation and even higher penalties if a "pattern" of violations is found. Both houses of the California Legislature recently passed S.B. 459 and sent it on to Governor Brown for signature. This measure joins a plethora of legislative and administrative efforts at the federal and state levels to deter and punish the misclassification of employees as independent contractors. (See recent Schnader Alert — "Senate Bill Proposes to End Misclassification of Independent Contractors".)
In addition to imposing new civil penalties, S.B. 459 also would empower the Labor Commissioner to assess damages on behalf of those misclassified; subject non-lawyer consultants to joint liability for knowingly advising an employer to classify a worker later deemed an employee as an independent contractor; and require an offending employer to post a notice on its website for one year containing specific information about its violation of the law. If signed by the Governor, its provisions will appear as new Sections 226.8 and 2753 of the Labor Code.

The Reserve Bank of India is watching the rupee's downslide in the foreign exchange market and will intervene when it is consistent with its policy, apex bank Governor D. Subbarao said here on Tuesday.
Talking to reporters, Dr. Subbarao said, "Our policy is to manage the volatility in the exchange rate and to ensure that the exchange rate movement doesn't impair our macro-economic stability.''
He said, "The exchange rate movement that we have seen in the last couple of weeks, particularly in the last 3-4 days, is being driven by global dynamics.
"And clearly, to what extent it moves and in which direction it moves will depend on credible resolution of the external situation, particularly the sovereign-debt problem in Europe.''
"So, we expect that the reverse adjustment will take place when the European situation will resolve itself. Till then obviously, I can't comment in real time about RBI intervening or not. But, we are watching the market. Of course, the RBI can intervene and will intervene when it is consistent with our policy," Dr. Subbarao said.

On February 7, the UK Financial Services Authority (FSA) announced that the Upper Tribunal (Tax and Chancery Chamber) had directed the FSA to fine David Massey £150,000 (approximately $240,000) and ban him from performing any role in a regulated financial services firm for engaging in market abuse.
On November 1, 2007, Mr. Massey shorted 2.5 million shares of Eicom at 8p per share, knowing, as an insider, that Eicom intended to issue new shares at 3.5p per share. Mr. Massey immediately acquired 2.6 million shares from Eicom at the lower price, using those to close out his short sale. His profit on the transaction was over £100,000 (approximately $160,000).

"The Streak" documentary featuring Pullman HS football ready to debut | Community Spirit
Title (Max 100 Characters)
A soon-to-be Senior at Pullman High School is preparing to debut his pet project nearly two years in the making.
Bryan Nakata was a sophomore when a series of e-mails was shared with him, containing journal entries written in 1957 by a former student and football players. The entries detail the days leading up to a football game that would ultimately end one of the longest winning streaks for any team in the country – 35 games stretching from 1953 until October 1957.
Bryan says it's an incredible feat that has been lost in history until now. He was immediately sucked in to the story and became more interested the more he dug.
"I began to find lost stories from our school and town that I knew were important to our history," he said. "My collection began with one yearbook out of the four years that our school library had, and five or six photos from the Whitman County Historical Society."
Slowly Bryan found more information has he dug through microfilm at Washington State University and eventually got in touch with Tim Busch, a friend of a family member who's older brother had been on the team. That interview sealed the deal, and Bryan knew he had the makings of an incredible documentary.
I called Tim in for a filmed interview and collected all he had of pictures at the time. Then I learned his brother Terry and Mickey Mays himself were going to be in town a couple weeks after I interviewed Tim. I got in contact with them and they agreed to meet me for a filmed interview. This is when my project started to grow rapidly. I was getting in touch with multiple members of the school from that time. Sue Druffel, who was a cheerleader I interviewed and organizes the reunions for the class of 1958, was a key source of contact information for me. She helped me organize a series of interviews during the summer of 2013 while the class had a reunion in Pullman. The Holiday inn express graciously allowed us to use their meeting room for most of the interviews free of cost. Since the day that I started the project, I have collected more then 750 Pictures, conducted 23 filmed interviews, and even came across game film of a 1955 PHS-Moscow game. The majority of my interviews were from people who no longer live in Pullman. One interview, Neal Brown, was performed in Alaska by The University of Alaska-Fairbanks and sent to me in the mail. My last interview was from a man who flew in from Minnesota. The people I have interviewed include players, students, cheerleaders, a majorette (baton twirler), Newspaper writer of The High Times(School Newspaper) and The Pullman Herald Don Tomlinson, and legendary Coach Ray Hobbs himself whose PHS's current football field is named after. Coach Mike Rendish, who coached the last season of the streak is no longer alive. One of the former players during this streak is a well known former Astronaut, John Fabian. Many of the players and students of this era went on to important careers.
Despite some incredible setbacks, including the loss of hours of work when the school computers were wiped last summer, Bryan says he's proud of the final product. Even though it started as a personal project, he plans on presenting it as his senior capstone this year.
Bryan's documentary, titled The Streak, is set to debut this Saturday, August 30 at 11 am on two screens at the Village Center Cinemas in Pullman. Many of the original team members interviewed for the film will be in attendance with a small reunion scheduled later in the day.

That was the best half-hour of television I've seen in a while. In case you hadn't heard, the latest episode of South Park was all about World of Warcraft. That could have just as soon ended up very poorly.
One who didn't know any better might easily dismiss the whole thing as a paid-for shilling for World of Warcraft, but I think anyone who's played the game and watched the episode would beg to differ. That episode showed an unreasonably deep knowledge of and interest in the underlying game and both the good and bad aspects of its player community. And it was funny. Bonus points for the gratuitous car jacking sequence.
What's going to be strange is to see how many players in the game will now be emulating the "celebrity" characters of the South Park cast. Talk about life imitating art imitating... wait, I'm confused. Wait, are games art?
As for South Park: After the theatrical film, which was great, I was sure the show would jump the shark. Very few shows survive their movie-theater debut. But here we are, years later, and South Park evidently is still going strong. Some of the shows are arguably trying a little too hard to tap into pop-culture trends, and an episode like this one conceivably would have been better six months earlier. But my hat's off to those guys, the people behind that show. It's a strange compliment to pay to a show like South Park, but I feel like it's still got integrity. I was pretty skeptical going into that episode but they pretty much nailed it. All the in-game footage was more than a little weird to see on my television, but not in a bad way, in the end. And the conclusion of the episode was great, not nearly the heavy-handed commentary I expected but the very same message.
Maybe I'll sleep on it and feel differently in the morning. At what point does it become unfashionable to say nice things about something everybody likes?
Not yet, that's when. Quick, leave a comment before it's no longer cool.

If you've always wanted to hire a personal stylist, check out Covet.com. Seriously, it doesn't get any better than this. I admit, I was a bit skeptical about working with a virtual stylist, but after taking its awesome Stylyzer test, I was a changed woman. It described my style to a T and also compared my likings to celebrities who have the same taste — i.e. Sienna Miller! This is how it works: sign up, take the Stylyzer test, submit size and brand info, and presto. All you have to do now is wait for the shopping suggestion emails from Covet. Oh, did I mention the services are free?

One more bogus site. The site is so hopeless that I can't even begin to say. I would never buy from them. I am reporting this site as SPAM. Brian

It was fun making the profile, and then when I got my first email of stuff supposedly picked just for me, I literally HATED almost all of it. Kind of disappointing. It's probably because I put my max prices pretty low, but I've been shopping on that budget for a long time and I find plenty of stuff on my own if I look hard enough.

Wow this is too good to be true! It's a perfect way to find out what else are out there that is also your style, without the time factor and the physical burden of looking for them. It's also awesome that I can check it out for free. Thanks for the post, I'm gonna go play around with it for hours!

I think it described my style pretty accurately, although I was confused by the test picture that asked me to choose between the Eiffel Tower and the Golden Gate Bridge.

Sarahab, NY&Co is listed. You have to actually type it in because they only list the most popular brands automatically.

i just did it and they send me an email entirely of new york and company clothes, and when i tried to go back and say i didnt like the brand, the brand wasnt listed on their list of 'i dont like these brands'. oh well, back to shopping for myself!
likeJax 5 years
on the 'stuff you hate page' i clicked on mini skirts and leopard print - two things i never wear - so you can tell the stylyzer what hemline you don't want. (i also hate wrap dresses and you can click on that on the dress page.) so it really is like a virtual stylist!

worked for me-i'm totally sporty minimalist. i think it depends on if you pay attention to the celebrity or to what they are wearing. maybe they should blur their faces?

the stylizer didn't work at all. i wanted to try it again, but the site won't let me... i did go in and manually choose my style, though.
Rouge-Noir 5 years
It didn't work for me, probably since it seemingly fails to take into account if, for instance, you don't like a certain hemline length (no miniskirts or shorts for me, thank you very much). But the test was good fun nevertheless.

This script allows you to extract and apply saturation to a layer. When you extract, it adds a new layer with the saturation values (in gray colors). You can then use curves, brightness/contrast or the dodge tool to correct saturation. When you are okay with the adjustements you can put back the saturation by applying it.
It installs itself in < script-fu >/Saturation.
Comments inside the script are in french.
