Teasing Wife Gives In
Written by Anonymous / Aug 15, 2007
My wife, Becky, has always been a tease. She doesn't flirt with men. On the contrary, she ignores advances or gives a quick, cold glance and walks away if a guy gets too friendly. But she always dresses sexy, and she secretly loves it when people notice. Everybody notices, and with good reason. Her Puerto Rican features make her tight outfits stand out, especially her beautiful, firm, round behind. Thick, perky nipples protrude from her full bosoms, and seem to poke out no matter how much of a top she is wearing. The thing that makes Becky stunning (as opposed to just good-looking) is her narrow waist that exaggerates the rest of her features.
I often tease her about how sexy she dresses. She smiles and says that when she's sixty, she'll dress like she's sixty. Since she's twenty eight, she's going to dress like she's twenty eight. Despite the sexy looks and sassy attitude, my wife doesn't put-out very often, and she never cheated. We usually made love about once a month and she would often stop my sexual advances. I guess she's like most women and just doesn't have the libido that men have. Though, her interest in sex was much greater when we had first been dating, but has dwindled quite a bit over our seven years together.
I work in the commodities market, so most of my acquaintances are the type that wear suits and like to golf, but about twice a month a group of guys that I grew up with gets together to play cards, dominos, and craps, drink beer, watch a porn flick or just hang-out on the stoop. I make more money than all three of them combined, so we usually meet at my place. I get to act blue-collar for the day and we all have a good time. My wife says I'm a different person around them. She says I act too 'gritty', like I've got to prove to my 'down and out' friends that my suit and tie hasn't sapped my machismo. Consequently she tries to avoid being home when this group of guys meets at our place.
During one of our visits, my wife came up in conversation and Marcus made the same comment he always makes, "Damn, she's got a great ass!" Everyone chuckled. Usually the conversation would turn to something else, but today everyone seemed to have a comment. I had grown used to Marcus saying something like this. He would even say shit like that when my wife was home and could hear it (thank god she was shopping that day). She would just give him a sharp, fierce glare and walk out of the room if he said shit like that in front of her. It was unusual for everyone to join in and go on and on about it. Pete said, "She's got great tits, too. Beats the hell out of my wife." Victor took it to the next level saying, "Man, I'd fuck the shit out of her if she wasn't married to Greg." Everyone laughed. I just smiled and listened to them describe her 'fuckable' body in greater and greater detail. This must have gone on for five minutes. When Victor turned and said, "Come on, Greg. Tell us what she's like."
Marcus had just finished describing in great detail how he would "shoot spooge right down Becky's drinking throat. Then watch the leftovers drip off her chin onto those perky tits, while she finished sucking my rod clean". So I chuckled at Victor's query and said. "Sorry to spoil the moment, guys, but Becky isn't as hot in bed as she looks, and she certainly doesn't act the way Marcus so eloquently described. The truth is that she's sort of prudish about sex. She's all looks and although she can be pretty good in bed on occasion, that occasion is fairly infrequent."
This sparked a round of protests. "I bet she loves to suck cock!" "That's bullshit, man. I could make her pant like a bitch in heat." "She'd bounce on my cock all night long."
I listened to them acting like a bunch of puffed up roosters and offhandedly said, "Whatever, you're all welcome to try, but don't blame me when she slaps you like the snot-nosed kids that you are." I expected everyone to laugh and for that to be the end of it, but everyone got quiet and mulled over what I just said. Victor finally said, "You really think so, huh? I'm going to hold you to that."
With all of the blue-collar machismo that I could muster I said, "You go right ahead, but don't say I didn't warn you."
Pete quickly said, "If you're so sure, then you'll agree not to try to sabotage us, by lying to her about us or trying to stop it if she starts spreading those long curvy legs for one of us. No offense, but nobody who dresses that sexy is a prude, and I intend to get some of that ass if you're offering it for the taking."
I had painted myself in a corner, and my pride wouldn't let me back down. Besides I was nearly certain that any advances one of them made on my wife would be met with an open hand-slap to the mouth. So I said, "Have it your way. I won't need to tell lies. She barely gives it up for me. She certainly isn't going to put out for you guys. Hell, she makes plans to be away whenever you guys stop by so that she can avoid you."
Instead of dissuading them with that last comment, it provoked each of them to again pledge success. As the evening ended, Victor made a toast with the dregs of his bottle. "Here's to fucking Greg's wife!" "I'll drink to that", replied Marcus. "Whatever," I said smugly.
The next couple of times that we got together, the guys showed up early and stayed late trying to be around my wife. As she was leaving-out, the guys would whistle at her and make a big deal about how she looked, even if she wasn't dressed particularly sexy. She just gave them dirty looks and walked out. My friends gave Becky the same treatment when she got home. They didn't make any crude comments, just approving cheers.
After a few months, two things happened. First, I came to the conclusion that the conversation had finally blown over. Second, although I didn't notice at first, my little wife was starting to dress sexier when she knew that the guys were stopping over. She was starting to like all of the attention that they were showing her. She used to wear stretch pants or tights, but now she was wearing miniskirts and short-shorts. While the guys still didn't say anything crude, they were DEFINITELY more overt about staring at her. And she was starting to linger around the house a little longer before going out and coming home a little earlier in the evening. Becky would also find more reasons to walk through the dining room or living room (depending on whether we were playing cards or just hanging out). Sometimes she would even join us for a few minutes of conversation, while the guys openly stared at her ample chest, legs and caboose.
None of this caught my attention because she always dresses sexy and she has always liked the attention that it brings her. But this was going further. She would find reasons to stand on tip-toes in the room to get something off of the top shelf or bend over for a long time as she read the titles on the books on the bottom shelf of the bookcase, finally selecting one and walking out of the room with it. If she was wearing shorts, either one of these actions pulled her tight shorts sharply into her butt-crack and accentuated her big-round, latina rump. If she was bending over, you could even see the seam pressing into her labia. Her pussy crack looked great like that. Everyone in the room would gasp and she would act as though she didn't even notice. If she was wearing a miniskirt, either action would display the bottom edge of her ass cheeks and if she was bending over far enough, you could see the crotch of her panties. On one occasion, she was wearing sheer, translucent panties and did this. The nearly clear panties pressed into her crotch and spread her fat pussy lips for all to see. I nearly came in my pants. Pete even uttered, "Oh my god!" under his breath. Becky couldn't suppress her smirk as she finally stood up and walked out of the room, without even bothering with the pretense of taking a book.
"I'm gonna fuck that when I get the chance" Marcus muttered loudly. I was concerned, because he said it loud enough for my wife to hear in the next room.
"Damn! What's up with that?" asked Victor. "Your wife is many things, but she is NOT a prude."
"Keep it down, guys", I said. "You're gonna piss her off."
"You're full of shit", Pete snapped. "Your wife just showed us her pussy and she did it on purpose."
"I'm tellin' you", I said, "She likes to look sexy, but she's just a tease."
Our conversation hushed suddenly as Becky entered the room. "I'll be back around nine o'clock, honey," she said to me. She bent over to give me a kiss on the cheek. Just then her eyes got big. My wife spun around and slapped Marcus's arm away from her ass, firing off (en espa?ol), "Keep your hands to yourself, pervert!" Then she stomped out of the house.
Marcus looked like a kid who just gotten caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Pete and Victor were giving him high-fives. All I said was, "I told you."
Marcus snickered to himself, "Yeah, she hit me like you said, but I know something you don't. Your prudish wife was sloppy wet. She really must get-off on us looking her over and talking about her when she's in the next room."
We didn't speak any more about it that night, but as far as Pete and Victor were concerned, Marcus was the hero of the day.
Marcus had started a new routine that day. From then on, Becky would hang around the house for a half-hour or so after the guys had arrived, before going out. One or two of the guys would do something, like pat her on the rear as she walked by, and she would smack their hand away. As she bent over to kiss me, the guy nearest her would try to rub her ass through her shorts or reach under her skirt and she would smack them away again. She would say something like, "Your friends are pigs!" or "You guys act like you're 13 years old."
Despite all this, my prudish wife kept dressing sexy when the guys dropped by. She started going to a women's exercise class at our health club and she would wear a French-cut exercise leotard to class. Of course she strutted around the house in it before class. Marcus tugged the back of her leotard upward turning it into a thong. As usual, Becky swatted him. Curiously, she left the leotard where it was, showing off the world's most beautiful ass for another 20 minutes before leaving for her class.
Two months later, my wife's protests had gradually subsided. What had once been slaps had turned into playful swats. When she said, "Your friends are pigs", there was almost an endearing quality in her voice. One day she gave me a longer than usual goodbye kiss. What made it longer was that she didn't immediately swing around and rebuff the guy that was rubbing her nearly bare behind (she was wearing her leotard). She stood up and said to me, "Aren't you ever going to do something to stop these guys from feeling me up all the time?"
"I, ah...." before I could answer, Pete interjected. "He told us it was alright. Greg, here, says we can do whatever you'll let us get away with."
"I didn't say it like that!" I protested. My lack of direct denial clearly pissed-off Becky. "What an asshole!" she fired at me. "You think you can pass me around to your friends like a toy." She stormed out of the house.
"Thanks a lot, Pete!" I muttered.
The guys left early that night. When Becky got home, she acted like nothing had happened. However, things changed rapidly. Over the next two months Becky radically reduced the amount of resistance she gave the guys during their visits. They could rub her butt when she walked by without even getting a nasty look. Her sexy outfits also became more bold. She would walk through the house in nothing more than a big tee-shirt and a pair of bikini-cut panties that would come into view if she happened to bend over or reach for something on an upper shelf. Her fat nipples were visible through the tee-shirt, just begging to be sucked. I never saw her let them do anything more aggressive than rub her ass as she walked by or as she was kissing me goodbye, but I started to suspect that the guys got pushier when I left the room.
For example, one time I left for the bathroom and Becky wasn't in the room. When I returned, she was standing between Victor and Marcus who were seated at the table. She had her back to me and she was looking down towards her crotch, with her feet about a foot and half apart. Victor and Marcus each had one hand firmly planted on her ass and were looking towards Becky's crotch. She had her right hand on Marcus's shoulder and pushed him away when she noticed I had walked into the room. As an afterthought, Becky called Marcus a 'pig' and walked out of the room. I suspected that Marcus's other hand might have been reaching up the front of her tee-shirt. The guys were all grins and Becky looked more embarrassed than they were.
Another time, Becky was wearing a mini-skirt, which the guys kept trying to pull up as she walked past the table. I was trying to focus on the card game and Becky stood at the other end of the table next to Pete as if to watch his poker-hand. The table blocked my view, but I could see that her mini-skirt was bunched up around her waist again. Pete would hold his cards in one hand and I suspected the other was under my wife's skirt. Victor, who could see what was going on, had a grin on his face. I won several hands in a row and seemed to be the only person at the table concentrating on the game. Eventually, Becky straightened her skirt and gave me the usual goodbye kiss before going shopping.
The goodbye kiss had turned into another excuse for the person closest to her to grab her ass or reach under her skirt. She had started to draw out these goodbye kisses, until they were more like a make-out session. While I kissed my wife I suspected that one of the other guys was taking his time feeling her up, and it soon became clear that they must have been finger-fucking her.
This bothered me for a while, but over time I got used to it until it was in some way a turn-on for me. You see, our sex life was improving. Especially the nights that the guys had been over.
Once the pretense that I didn't know what was going on had worn away, my wife started staying home when the guys were over. Becky would play off her presence as a sort of hostess to our group. For a while she still tried to keep the lewd activities out of my sight, even if just hidden by the table, but everyone knew that I knew what was going on. She would stand next to someone at the table and get felt-up. If I went to the bathroom, I could tell that something raunchier had been happening while I was away. Becky would be straightening her clothes, getting up from sitting on the table or on someone's lap. She would go on as if nothing had happened, though the smell of wet pussy filled the air. And I had seen through the thin tee-shirt, her nipples hard and wet with salvia. My wife was turning into a little slut.
The first time that she let them molest her in front of me I was surprised. It looked so much sluttier than it had seemed when left to my imagination. Becky stood between Victor and me. While the game went on his hand would slip under her big tee-shirt. He rubbed my wife's luscious ass for a few minutes, and then slowly, almost absent-mindedly, finger-fucked her. I couldn't help but keep glancing over. Victor and I made eye contact as I snatched a glance. He winked at me and pulled my wife's tee-shirt up so that I could get a better view. Becky's panties had been pushed aside, for easier access to her sex. Victor had a big grin as he turned back to his cards and clearly relished the feeling of finger-fucking my wife while I watched from about two feet away.
Becky helped out by gathering up the cards after each hand. She would bend over the table and gather up the deck and pass it to the next dealer. The first time she did this after Victor hiked up her shirt, I got an eyeful. He had two fingers buried to the hilt in her very swollen, sopping wet pussy. Becky spread her legs apart another six inches, as if to give me a better view. Splaying his fingers, Victor opened her juicy vag lips, showing undulating pink flesh. Then, he pushed his thumb into my wife's sticky asshole. Grasping her taint now with the three fingers, Victor shook his hand violently, eliciting gasping excitation from my wife's flapping rump. When she stood up again, Becky grinned in my direction and said, "Having a good time, honey?" Everyone chuckled.
I couldn't believe this was my prudish Becky. Her anus had always been off-limits for sex play and, due to a wandering finger, she'd once given me the cold shoulder for a week. Now here my wife was completely submitting to my best friend's thumb in her ass, and making fun of me with it! The shame was overwhelming, as I felt myself get up from the table, walk to the bathroom and shut the door.
What was I going to do? My wife was on the verge of giving it all up to my oldest friends, if she hadn't already. But the sex between us was at its best ever, all due to these poker nights and the passions they had ignited. I'd decided to put an end to all of this, even if it meant an end to great sex. If I lost Becky in the process, I would just have to move on. After all, it felt as if I'd lost her already, having such humiliation rubbed literally in my face.
But when I returned to the room, I was completely startled into forgetting what I'd planned. There was my wife, straddling Victor, facing away from him, tee-shirt hiked up around her waist and her panties half-removed, clinging wetly to one thigh. Becky was spreading her thick ass cheeks with both hands, opening her sex crease to him. Victor's pants and underwear were pushed down, slickened erection in hand with the spear head of his cock in my wife's anal indent, pressing into her wetted rosebud.
"This is crazy, Becky," said Pete, "You're too tight."
"Yeah," chimed Marcus, rubbing the mean bulge in his pants, "And you know what you really want is this fattie plugging your honey hole."
My wife licked her lips as her gaze fell upon Marcus's package. "No, but I'm keeping that for my husband!" she replied, "And anyway, this isn't sex. I just really need a dick stuffed in me.? Slowly, and with determination, Becky lowered herself onto Victor's dick as he held it upright. Inch by tortured inch, I watched my groaning wife violate her marriage vows and her tight rectum with my friend's penis, wriggling her hips to fit as she made the descent. Victor gasped as her puckering anus swallowed him to the very root, my wife's ass cheeks settling now on his thighs as they were coupled together.
"So full", drawled Becky, half out-of-it, as every nerve ending registered the pressuring satisfaction of my friend's invader in her shit tube. She pushed her tee-shirt down now, to cover her ass and the bare thighs of both Victor and herself, then leaned back against his chest.
"God damn, she did it!" cried Marcus. "Next of us to win a hand is on-deck", he wagered to Pete.
Just as I was entering the room, Pete had been in the process of making a case why he should be next, as Marcus had already gotten to suck her pussy. But they must have heard me coming, and quickly hushed up, trying to act natural.
Becky smiled at me, while my friends stifled their laughter and grinned like the cat that ate the canary. For a while, nobody said anything, as Marcus dealt the next hand. The only sounds were of Victor breathing deeply, but rapidly. My wife held his cards for him, in the ruse of being but a helpful tease on my friend's lap. In actuality, her wet anus sucked mightily on his dick, slowly pulling his sperm into her body. Pete won that hand and, skipping Victor, dealt the next one. I noticed then Becky beginning to lose touch, her grip on the cards slackening as she was rising up and down, in time with Victor's rolling shoulders.
As they began rocking harder together, a loud rip came out of my wife's juicy ass pipe, gas bubbling past his cock. I looked on aghast, as Marcus and Pete laughed, and Becky came to, glaring at Victor who kept on bucking. She just as quickly lolled her head back and moaned loudly, as I could tell he was grinding his pelvis into her ass on a long in-stroke. Leaning back in the chair, Victor grabbed my wife's meaty thighs and spread them. With her feet on the edge of the table, we all had a clear view as he hard pounded her shitter in perfect time, really scrumping Becky's butt hole now like it was a pussy.
"Hell yeah!, exclaimed Marcus, as he, Pete and I all stood up to get a better view of the hot sex before us. Victor's dick quickly slid in and out my wife's anus, coated in her slime, as the rich smell of open bung perfumed the air. Becky was panting like a bitch in heat, grunting her pleasure and furiously rubbing her clit with one hand, while tugging her nipples through the thin tee-shirt with the other.
From behind, Marcus grabbed her shirt by the sleeves, and began pulling it up over her head. Between Victor's rapid fuck-strokes and her excitement, Becky managed a weak, futile protest, "No... Don't let my husband see!" before breaking into a huge, closed-eyed grin. Her arms slackened and raised, making it easier for Marcus to remove the tee-shirt. He tossed the shirt aside, exposing my wife's bouncing tits and thick, suckable nipples.
Having unveiled his prize, Marcus wrapped a fist around the base of each of my wife's soft melons, so that they plumped out around his thumb and forefinger. Becky was in a screaming fit from the rough stimulation, "YES! YES!" as Marcus alternately sucked her tits deep into his mouth, tonguing the nipples, or pulling on them with his teeth and lips. Looking like no child of mine, Marcus's lustful devouring was in cruel mockery to this visions I'd once had of our babies suckling at Becky's breasts. Meanwhile, Pete had unzipped and pulled down his pants, hoping to be next to have sex with my wife, making her rectum the unnatural receptacle of his lubricating pre-cum, his reproductive man-hood, and his fertilizing seed.
Just then, Becky started really wailing, pumping her legs against the heavy table, shouting "Give me your cum!" as Victor pumped his genome into my wife's poop chute, her orgasming anus squeezing out every drop of chowder for its post-coital meal. Seeing Becky's climax, it was as if I had recovered from a trance, shouting, "Your penis is in my wife!! Get out!" From the sheer intensity of my voice, Marcus and Pete both backed away, as Victor's dick shrank and fell loose from her bowels. Pete was first to protest, "Yeah? And what am I supposed to do with this?" he said, waving his rock hard dick at my wife.
Lowering my face, the reply shocked even me, "Alright. You fuck her in the ass, then Marcus, then all of you get out of my sight..." with that, I resigned myself and Becky to this fate.
She slowly stood up, studied my defeat, smiled and said, "Ok. Let's take this to the living room, boys." My wife started off with a wag from her sore hips, as my three best friends followed close behind, hands on her ass and waist.
Once on the carpet, she took a blanket off of the sofa and laid it on the ground, then put her arms around Pete and Marcus as they sucked on her tits, looking back and forth at the two of them bringing her to a panting lust. Becky then lowered herself to her knees, running her hands down their bodies. My wife rubbed Marcus's bulge with one hand while grabbing a hold of Pete's stiff member in the other, then shuffled her round, Puerto Rican ass to meet Peter. Spreading her crack now with both hands, Becky presented her slimy, cum-filled asshole and puffy pussy to Pete's penetration. Head turned, looking up passionately to Peter, my wife begged him, "Do it, fuck me".
Stroking his dick, Pete aligned the wet tip of his adulterous member with my wife's relaxed anus. He then pushed in the entire length at one go, eliciting a deep, guttural groan from Becky, who braced her hands against the floor. Pete pulled her wet ass pipe for most of a full backstroke, before thrusting hard again into my wife's bowels. "Never... thought. It's so tight..." he said, awed by this new experience, which his own wife had in the past denied him. Pete spread my baby's sex crease then with his palms, picking up the tempo at which he buggered her juicy pucker. She then looked back momentarily, a smile on Becky's face as her hot pussy fluttered to his strokes, the butt slut's eyes closing with a dreamy look of contentment. Becky cried out, "Give it to me, fuck my ass!", sweat dripping off her pretty features. At this, Marcus fed his fingers into Becky's randy mouth, which she sucked heartily, looking into his eyes. Meanwhile, Marcus unzipped and unleashed his ten-inch monster, obscuring her view completely.
Becky gasped, his fingers falling from her mouth. She reached up with both hands wrapped around Marcus's ass, pulling his rock-hard erection to her face. My breathless wife panted out, "Oh... Fuck it!" before instantly engulfing about two-thirds of Marcus's length, her thick lips stretched obscenely over the breadth of his monstrous genitals. Becky's eyes closed tightly as she chugged forward and back from the neck, trying to fit the rest of Marcus's mighty schlong down her tiny throat. Victor and I looked on enviously. While Pete hammered away at my wife's anal pussy, Marcus gripped the back of her head, and thrust the rest of his meat into her pussy face. Becky's throat bulged as she gagged, my wife's cute little face turning red, being fully mashed into his pubis.
Asphyxiated, Becky came deep, her rippling rectum sending Pete over the edge as he fertilized my wife's shit. While flooding her pink sewer with his thick white spooge, Pete announced, "I'm cumming in Greg's wife!" Marcus released her face, retracting his cock from Becky's throat, which caused an involuntary gasp as the tube relaxed to its normal curvature. Panting, she braced herself again on her hands, as Pete pulled his spent dick from deep within my wife's ass. She smiled at the audible *pop* made when his cock head slipped past her anus. As Becky relaxed her hips, an enormous fart rippled through her loosened bowels, spraying like a shotgun the cream of my two friends mixed with her yellow-brown butt mucus. When Becky saw that some strings had landed on my astonished cheek, she pointed and laughed almost wickedly, though weak from the hard fucking.
With his hand on my wife's full, Latina cheek, Marcus drew her attention to his face, saying softly, "My turn now." Becky reached out with one hand for his erect cock, giving a lick and kiss on the leaking tip while looking up into his eyes, before swiveling on her hands and knees so that her ass faced Marcus's monster. As he pressed the head of his cock into her, my wife gave a surprised look back at Marcus, before smiling approvingly at him and then again facing forward, greeting me with a big, stupid grin.
Marcus leaned forward, speared into my wife, his gargantuan penis stretching her to a new dimension. Becky exhaled powerfully, her face a silent scream, as he bottomed out deep in her abdomen, my wife's knees and hands giving way as Marcus's body pushed her down onto the blanket. Her upper body supported by her tits and outstretched arms, legs splayed out, braced by Marcus's, Becky smiled and shouted at me, "He's in my pussy, honey, balls deep!"
My wife was no longer mine. I hadn't even time to register the shock before Marcus had his hands on her hips, sexing her baby hole with deep, steady strokes, stretching Becky's excited vaginal flesh around his thick organ. As Victor, Pete and I moved to get a better look at the action, she panted, "Do you boys like what you see?" They hooted and hollered at the view of my wife's pink pussy lips, clinging like a ring wedded to Marcus's shiny wet fuck finger, his cock tugging the sweetest meat and juices from her body.
Marcus then placed his hands under Becky's thick thighs, and picked her up bodily from the floor as he stood. She leaned back into him as he steady plugged her standing, holding her legs up from behind, and holding my wife's hot pink butterfly open with his thick baby maker. Becky's sexy arched feet and painted toenails provided an adorable frame to this sickening picture, as Marcus spun my wife on his cock to face him. She wrapped her long legs around Marcus's back and her arms around his strong neck. Becky looked into his eyes, then pulled Marcus close and kissed him deeply, licking his lips with her tongue while milking his penis with her pussy lips below. My wife smiled and whispered, "Greg could never fuck me like you do." I groaned at this scene, with the feeling that my balls had just been physically stomped.
Then Marcus grinned, and carried Becky over to the couch. He laid her down on the edge of the sofa, his cock still filling out my wife's womb, and began again thrusting his sex into her sopping wet vagina. Becky panted heavily, while Marcus groaned his exertion through hard-pounding conjugation. "Fuck my pussy, Marcus, you fuck me so good!" my wife yelled, as Marcus responded loudly, "Take it, bitch, take it!" His monster a blur now, as my wife's pink love glove sucked it noisily.
"Here it is. I'm coming!" shouted Marcus, and with one final pump slammed his thickness deep into my wife, grinding it into the throat of her womb. Her arms around him, Becky pulled her lover in tight, as he hosed her unprotected sanctum with thick ropes of fiery seed. The heat and pressure of his cum blast against her cervix sent my wife into another orgasm, as she screamed, "Knock me up, make me your slut!" Marcus tremored again and again, as he filled her vaginal canal with his sperm, until it leaked out around the tight seal made by Becky's sucking pussy lips around his thick cock. I wondered then if my best friend's best efforts had in fact succeeded in making a baby in my wife.
Sick of the display, and sick at myself for letting it all happen, I hesitated not a moment longer in shooing my friends out of our home. Becky's wet face looked longingly after, as the breed seed they'd planted dripped in gobs from her open pussy and ass. Nothing would ever be the same again.
A part of my love had died that night, just as Becky had died to her old self and been replaced by a slut of unimaginable proportions. Luckily she hadn't been impregnated, as things would be much more difficult with an innocent child in the picture.
Becky was still something I'd wanted. The sexy beauty I had married was even sexier to me now, more than ever. And more than anything, I wanted to fuck her asshole, newly opened for business. Becky still needed me, and wanted to continue living together as husband and wife. But she also needed more cock than I could give her. So we struck up a sort of deal. She would have her tubes tied, and be able to fuck my friends anytime she liked. I was fine by this arrangement, as it meant I could have her any time she has an itch in an open orifice. And quite often, that itch has been in her anus.
This has worked out quite well, as I have her at least once a day now. My friends come over more often than before. In fact, I sometimes open the door to see them screwing my wife on the couch or on the floor. One time, she had all three of them fucking her at once, a cock in each hole, and when Pete shot his wad up her ass I was there ready to replace him. I'd always thought one day I would see my children exiting my wife's womb, but instead it seems all I will ever see is the semen of other men, dripping from her used tubes.
It really bothers me too, the way she looks so deeply into Marcus's eyes, and how stretched her pussy has become from their incessant lovemaking. And I wish they wouldn't use the bed in which Becky and I sometimes sleep, no matter how convenient it might be for them. But, a deal's a deal.
One time, though, I came home to Marcus's spag shooting right down my wife's drinking throat. Then I watched the leftovers drip off her chin onto those perky tits, while Becky finished sucking his rod clean. She didn't even have dinner on the table, before following him to bed with a belly full of sperm. Well that's good for her, but I need to eat too.
What to do with a wife like that!

Verizon has directly approached Vodafone about buying back the UK firm's 45% stake in Verizon Wireless. Verizon has not made an official offer, however this is the first time the company has asked Vodafone to sell their stake directly. Recently, Verizon executives have made a number of public comments about wanting to increase their stake in VZW. Although they have previously said they would maintain their investment in Verizon Wireless, Vodafone may finally be ready to sell, as the company has just put their Japanese unit up for sale, and may look to shed other investments that do not play directly into their large GSM network in Europe.

"I don't think the Bush administration would want to see these released," an expert tells Salon
June 19, 2012
By Jordan Michael Smith
Over 120 CIA documents concerning 9/11, Osama bin Laden and counterterrorism were published today for the first time, having been newly declassified and released to the National Security Archive. The documents were released after the NSA pored through the footnotes of the 9/11 Commission and sent Freedom of Information Act requests.
The material contains much new information about the hunt before and after 9/11 for bin Laden, the development of the drone campaign in AfPak, and al-Qaida's relationship with America's ally, Pakistan. Perhaps most damning are the documents showing that the CIA had bin Laden in its cross hairs a full year before 9/11 — but didn't get the funding from the Bush administration White House to take him out or even continue monitoring him. The CIA materials directly contradict the many claims of Bush officials that it was aggressively pursuing al-Qaida prior to 9/11, and that nobody could have predicted the attacks. "I don't think the Bush administration would want to see these released, because they paint a picture of the CIA knowing something would happen before 9/11, but they didn't get the institutional support they needed," says Barbara Elias-Sanborn, the NSA fellow who edited the materials.
Let's start there. In 2000 and 2001, the CIA began using Predator Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Afghanistan. "The idea of using UAVs originated in April 2000 as a result of a request from the NSC's Coordinator for Counterterrorism to the CIA and the Department of Defense to come up with new ideas to go after the terrorists in Afghanistan," a 2004 document summarizes.…Continue reading

Raw Story
A document declassified this week by the National Security Archive reveals that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) delivered a briefing to the Bush administration which directly contradicts former Vice President Dick Cheney's claim that 9/11 hijacker Mohamed Atta visited an Iraqi intelligence official in Prague.
The document (PDF), dated Dec. 1, 2001 and delivered to the White House on the 8th, claims that Atta "did not travel to the Czech Republic on 31 May 2000," and adds that "the individual who attempted to enter the Czech Republic on 31 May 2000… was not the Atta who attacked the World Trade Center on 11 September 2001."
Despite this briefing, just days later on Dec. 9, 2001, Cheney told the late Tim Russert, host of Meet the Press, that the meeting in Prague had been "pretty well confirmed."
Well, what we now have that's developed since you and I last talked, Tim, of course, was that report that's been pretty well confirmed, that he did go to Prague and he did meet with a senior official of the Iraqi intelligence service in Czechoslovakia last April, several months before the attack. Now, what the purpose of that was, what transpired between them, we simply don't know at this point. But that's clearly an avenue that we want to pursue.
Cheney's claim was one of the strongest rhetorical links between the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 and Iraq in the administration's arguments for war,… Continue reading
Top Secret CIA Documents on Osama bin Laden Declassified
National Security Archive Electronic Briefing Book No. 381
Posted June 19, 2012
Edited by Barbara Elias-Sanborn with Thanks to Archive Senior Fellow Jeffrey T. Richelson
Washington, D.C., June 19, 2012 — The National Security Archive today is posting over 100 recently released CIA documents relating to September 11, Osama bin Laden, and U.S. counterterrorism operations. The newly-declassified records, which the Archive obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, are referred to in footnotes to the 9/11 Commission Report http://www.9-11commission.gov/report/index.htmand present an unprecedented public resource for information about September 11.
The collection includes rarely released CIA emails, raw intelligence cables, analytical summaries, high-level briefing materials, and comprehensive counterterrorism reports that are usually withheld from the public because of their sensitivity. Today's posting covers a variety of topics of major public interest, including background to al-Qaeda's planning for the attacks; the origins of the Predator program now in heavy use over Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iran; al-Qaeda's relationship with Pakistan; CIA attempts to warn about the impending threat; and the impact of budget constraints on the U.S. government's hunt for bin Laden.
Today's posting is the result of a series of FOIA requests by National Security Archive staff based on a painstaking review of references in the 9/11 Commission Report.
Document Highlights
… Although the collection is part of a laudable effort by the CIA to provide documents on events related to September 11, many of these materials are heavily… Continue reading

The Washington Times is a newspaper that looks with favor upon the Bush/Cheney/Obama/neocon wars of aggression in the Middle East and favors making terrorists pay for 9/11. Therefore, I was surprised to learn on February 24 that the most popular story on the paper's website for the past three days was the "Inside the Beltway" report, "Explosive News," about the 31 press conferences in cities in the US and abroad on February 19 held by Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, an organization of professionals which now has 1,000 members.
I was even more surprised that the news report treated the press conference seriously. How did three World Trade Center skyscrapers suddenly disintegrate into fine dust? How did massive steel beams in three skyscrapers suddenly fail as a result of short-lived, isolated, and low temperature fires? "A thousand architects and engineers want to know, and are calling on Congress to order a new investigation into the destruction of the Twin Towers and Building 7," reports the Washington Times.
The paper reports that the architects and engineers have concluded that the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the National Institute of Standards and Technology provided "insufficient, contradictory and fraudulent accounts of the circumstances of the towers' destruction" and are "calling for a grand jury investigation of NIST officials."
The newspaper reports that Richard Gage, the spokesperson for the architects and engineers said: "Government officials will be notified that "Misprision of Treason,' U.S. Code… Continue reading
Declassified documents show U.S. Embassy knew that Guatemalan security forces were behind wave of abductions of students and labor leaders.
National Security Archive calls for release of military files and investigation into intellectual authors of the 1984 abduction of Fernando García and other disappearances

(See many significant related postings at the source.)
Washington, DC, March 17, 2009 — Following a stunning breakthrough in a 25-year-old case of political terror in Guatemala, the National Security Archive today is posting declassified U.S. documents about the disappearance of Edgar Fernando García, a student leader and trade union activist captured by Guatemalan security forces in 1984. The documents show that García's capture was an organized political abduction orchestrated at the highest levels of the Guatemalan government.
Guatemalan authorities made the first arrest ever in the long-dormant kidnapping case when they detained Héctor Roderico Ramírez Ríos, a senior police officer in Quezaltenango, on March 5th and retired policeman Abraham Lancerio Gómez on March 6th as a result of an investigation into García's abduction by Guatemala's Human Rights Prosecutor (Procurador de Derechos Humanos–PDH). Arrest warrants have been issued for two more suspects, Hugo Rolando Gómez Osorio and Alfonso Guillermo de León Marroquín. The two are former officers with the notorious Special Operations Brigade (BROE) of the National Police, a unit linked to death squad activities during the 1980s by… Continue reading
Missing email includes day Cheney's office told to preserve emails in CIA leak case WASHINGTON — Welcome to change.
The Obama administration, siding with former President George W. Bush, is trying to kill a lawsuit that seeks to recover what could be millions of missing White House e-mails in a stunning reversal of Obama's rhetoric about Bush secrecy on the campaign trail.
Two advocacy groups suing the Executive Office of the President, including one of the groups that helped derail former House Speaker Tom DeLay, say that large amounts of White House e-mail documenting Bush's eight years in office may still be missing, and that the government must undertake an extensive recovery effort. They expressed disappointment that Obama's Justice Department is continuing the Bush administration's bid to get the lawsuits dismissed.
During its first term, the Bush White House failed to install electronic record-keeping for e-mail when it switched to a new system, allegedly resulting in millions of messages that could not be found.
The Bush White House "discovered the problem" in 2005 and rejected a proposed solution.
The exact number of missing e-mails is unknown, but several days on which e-mails were not archived covered key dates in a Justice Department inquiry into the roles of Vice President Dick Cheney and his aides in leaking the identity of covert CIA agent Valerie Plame Wilson.
Ironically, Cheney's office is missing emails from the very day President Bush told reporters he'd "take care of" whatever staff member had actually… Continue reading
By Tom Burghardt From Antifascist Calling…Exploring the shadowlands of the corporate police state
The Washington Post revealed Friday that the FBI is continuing its systematic violation of Americans' Fourth Amendment guarantees against "unreasonable searches and seizures."
A Justice Department report concluded that the Bureau had repeatedly abused its intelligence gathering "privileges" by issuing bogus "national security letters" (NSLs) from 2003-2006. On at least one occasion, the FBI relied on an illegally-issued NSL to circumvent a ruling by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to obtain records the secret court deemed protected by the First Amendment.
While the Bush regime claims that the Bureau requires sweeping authority to invade the privacy of American citizens to "protect the homeland" from the Afghan-Arab database of disposable intelligence assets, al-Qaeda, Justice Department Inspector General Glenn A. Fine determined that fully "60 percent of the nearly 50,000 security letters issued that year [2006] by the FBI targeted Americans," according to Post reporter Dan Eggen.
Despite the FISA court twice rejecting Bureau requests to obtain sensitive private records, determining "the 'facts' were too thin" and the "request implicated the target's First Amendment rights," the FBI used an NSL as a "work around" and proceeded anyway.
The stunning disregard for all legal norms under the Bush regime is encapsulated by FBI general counsel Valerie E. Caproni's statement to investigators that "it was appropriate to issue the letters in such cases because she disagreed with the court's conclusions."
Fine asserted in the Inspector General's report that the Bureau has… Continue reading
WASHINGTON – JUNE 22 – The Central Intelligence Agency violated its charter for 25 years until revelations of illegal wiretapping, domestic surveillance, assassination plots, and human experimentation led to official investigations and reforms in the 1970s, according to declassified documents posted today on the Web by the National Security Archive at George Washington University.
CIA director Gen. Michael Hayden announced today that the Agency is declassifying the full 693-page file amassed on CIA's illegal activities by order of then-CIA director James Schlesinger in 1973–the so-called "family jewels." Only a few dozen heavily-censored pages of this file have previously been declassified, although multiple Freedom of Information Act requests have been filed over the years for the documents. Gen. Hayden called today's release "a glimpse of a very different time and a very different Agency."
I'm sure General Hayden would like us to take him at his word. But who on earth will believe the CIA has 'reformed' itself, when even the mainstream press reports blatantly illegal acts like extraordinary rendition? The worst abuses we never hear about.

Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) – A bipartisan group of senators is pushing legislation that would force the CIA to release an inspector general's report on the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
The CIA has spent more than 20 months weighing requests under the Freedom of Information Act for its internal investigation of the attacks but has yet to release any portion of it.
The agency is the only federal office involved in counterterrorism operations that has not made at least a version of its internal 9/11 investigation public.
Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and two other intelligence committee leaders – chairman Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., and senior Republican Kit Bond of Missouri – are pushing legislation that would require the agency to declassify the executive summary of the review within one month and submit a report to Congress explaining why any material was withheld.
The provision has been approved by the Senate twice, but never made into law.
In an interview, Wyden said he is also considering whether to link the report's release to his acceptance of President Bush's nominations for national security positions.
"It's amazing the efforts the administration is going to stonewall this," Wyden said. "The American people have a right to know what the Central Intelligence Agency was doing in those critical months before 9/11…. I am going to bulldog this until the public gets it."
Completed in June 2005, the inspector general's report examined the personal responsibility… Continue reading

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) – An anti-Castro militant now in a Texas jail warned the CIA months before the 1976 bombing of a Cuban airliner that fellow exiles were planning such an attack, according to a newly released U.S. government document.
The document shows that Luis Posada Carriles – who had worked for the CIA but was cut off by the agency earlier that year – was secretly telling the CIA that his fellow far-right Cuban exiles opposed to Fidel Castro's communist government were plotting to bring down a commercial jet.
The document does not say what the CIA did with Posada's tip. A CIA spokesman said he had no comment on Monday, a federal holiday.
The CIA had extensive contacts with anti-Castro militants and trained some of them, but has denied involvement in the bombing.
The documents were posted online Thursday by the National Security Archive, an independent research institute at George Washington University that seeks to declassify government files through the Freedom of Information Act.
The Cubana Airlines plane, on a flight from Venezuela to Cuba, blew up shortly after taking off from a stopover in Barbados on Oct. 6, 1976, killing all 73 aboard, including Cuba's Olympic fencing team.
The bombing remains an open wound in Cuba. Weeping relatives of the victims met in a Havana cemetery on Friday, the 30th anniversary of the bombing. They demanded that Posada – who is now 78 and in a Texas detention… Continue reading
The truth-telling by New York Times reporter Scott Shane surely must shame present-day journalists, still MIA from investigative reporting on either 9/11 or the war: "… higher-level officials at the NSA were 'fearful that [declassification] might prompt uncomfortable comparisons with the flawed intelligence used to justify the war in Iraq.' Perhaps they will at last find their integrity when they realize, "The glaring light of publicity encouraged the Agency's leaders finally to approve declassification of the documents."
The question remains, will they find that lost integrity before 58,000 troops and 3 million citizens are dead, and fascist totalitarianism has become fully entrenched in America?

Washington, D.C., 1 December 2005 – The largest U.S. intelligence agency, the National Security Agency, today declassified over 140 formerly top secret documents — histories, chronologies, signals intelligence [SIGINT] reports, and oral history interviews — on the August 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident. Included in the release is a controversial article by Agency historian Robert J. Hanyok on SIGINT and the Tonkin Gulf which confirms what historians have long argued: that there was no second attack on U.S. ships in Tonkin on August 4, 1964. According to National Security Archive research fellow John Prados, "the American people have long deserved to know the full truth about the Gulf of Tonkin incident. The National Security Agency is to be commended for releasing this piece of the puzzle. The parallels between the faulty intelligence on Tonkin Gulf and the… Continue reading

In mid-February, 2013 the fifteenth tropical cyclone of the Southern Indian Ocean season spun over the sea near Diego Garcia. Tropical Cyclone 15S, soon to be known as Cyclone Gino, developed from a low pressure system which was first seen on February 9. On February 11 at 0300 UTC the system reached tropical storm strength, and by February 12 maximum sustained winds had reached 86 mph (about 139 km/h), the equivalent of a category one hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson wind scale. On February 15 at 1500 UTC, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) released its tenth and final warning on the system as the storm, battered by wind shear, weakened and became extra-tropical, dissipating as it lived it's life – over open ocean and away from land. On Feb. 11 at 0805 UTC the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument aboard NASA's Aqua satellite captured this true-color image of Tropical Cyclone 15S in the Southern Indian Ocean. Bands of strong thunderstorms were wrapping in to the storm's well-defined center of circulation, an indication of a strengthening storm.

Ah, Rob Ford. Why do you keep letting people take pictures and videos of you?
We appreciate the constant circus that surrounds him, because, it's hilarious in an extremely sad and depressing sort of way. However, there's a difference between being just your regular run-of-the-mill buffoon who shows up at parties wearing a lampshade on his head and puking in the doghouse, and being a buffoon who also happens to be the mayor of one of the biggest cities in North America.
I'll tell you what the difference is: being a mayor is a lot of work and responsibility, and you kinda gotta put 100% focus on doing a good job and not smoke crack and get hammered all of the time.
Despite the fact that the people's champion Rod Ford seems to be re-entering the race for Mayor, it seems extremely likely that the population will vote someone in with slightly more self-respect, dedication, and hopefully less substance-abuse problems.
There are several others running for mayor, including media darling Olivia Chow, but since she's not nearly as sexy as Nikki Benz, we'll focus on her instead.
Anyways, Nikki Benz, a Toronto-born adult actress, has recently thrown her hat into the race via exclusive campaign introduction video on TMZ.
Now, we're not sure if Nikki Benz will win, but she at least has one thing going for her: there won't be any top secret scandalous videos or photos of Nikki Benz leaked to the media, since they'll have already seen all of them on their favourite adult site, Sex.com.
Here are some pictures of your potential new mayor, blonde bombshell Nikki Benz. Gold bless thee, Toronto, for continuing to produce excitement around a very important and serious government position.

Total Wins Bulgaria Black Sea Deep-Water Drilling Permit
July 12 (Bloomberg) -- Total SA won a permit to explore for natural gas in the deep waters of the Black Sea off the Bulgarian coast, Energy, Economy and Tourism Minister Delyan Dobrev told reporters in Sofia today.
Total competed with Exxon Mobil Corp. and Melrose Resources Plc for the permit explore the Khan Asparuh block near the northern border with Romania, which is for five years, including the initial drilling, he said.
Austria's OMV AG and Spain's Repsol SA are partnering with Total on the permit, Austria Press Agency reported, citing the ministry.
OMV in February said that it had found gas in a Black Sea well in neighboring Romania in what might be its biggest find ever.

• The five confirmed dwarf planets—including Pluto—are all smaller than Earth's moon, but some of them have moons themselves.
• Astronomers suspect that the asteroid Ceres might have geysers that spew water from its rocky crust.
• Earth's probes have yet to reach any dwarf planets. That will change in 2015, when the New Horizons spacecraft arrives at Pluto.
Poor Pluto. As if this faraway frozen ball's long journey around the sun—a squashed trajectory that takes 248 years—wasn't strange enough, Pluto's story took an even stranger turn in 2006, when astronomers stripped it of its status as our ninth planet. But Pluto's loss was actually a gain for wannabe astronauts. Suddenly, the solar system offered new "planets" to explore. Astronomers coined the term "dwarf planet" to reclassify Pluto, which would become a representative of this new club of heavenly bodies. And membership is growing fast.
While standard planets must meet three criteria, dwarf planets only need to check off two: They must orbit the sun and be of sufficient size for their gravity to squish them into a spherical shape. Along with Pluto, astronomers have identified four other dwarf planets. Most of them join Pluto in the so-called Kuiper Belt of comets-in-waiting beyond the orbit of Neptune. There's Eris, which rivals Pluto in size, and egg-shaped Haumea, one of the fastest spinning objects in the solar system (its "day" lasts just four hours). Mighty Ceres, the largest of the asteroids at nearly 600 miles (966 kilometers) in diameter, joins the dwarf-planet club from the Asteroids Belt. Astronomers suspect that dozens—possibly hundreds—of dwarf planets await discovery. Perhaps someday you'll find one of these itty-bitty worlds.

Jobs Watch: Burn wood not coal
Portland General Electric's proposal to phase out Oregon's sole coal-burning power plant 20 years ahead of schedule means the state will soon be losing its largest source of pollution from greenhouse gases, sulfur dioxide and nitrous oxide. It also means we will lose a reliable workhorse that has helped keep electricity rates relatively low in Oregon. Replacing the Boardman coal plant will not be easy.
The seemingly obvious solution for making up for that lost power would be to build a new power plant fueled by natural gas. Gas releases about half as much carbon dioxide as coal, and it is extremely reliable and easy to fire up on demand, to back up renewable resources when the wind is not blowing and the sun is not shining.
But I don't like the idea of replacing one imported fossil fuel with another. I don't trust natural gas prices. They are low because of the recession but they have a long record of volatility. Cranking up another cookie cutter gas plant may be tempting, but it is far from innovative. And it would cut jobs rather than creating them, because coal plants provide more jobs than gas plants.
On The Scene: Gauging the smart-meter trend
Green continues to be the hot color as we enter another decade, and sustainability efforts are still developing everywhere, particularly in Portland. Electric cars are charging into the auto sector, and more local businesses are offering sustainable products to draw in environmentally conscious consumers. But as the market becomes saturated with all kinds of green services, where else can entrepreneurs look for opportunities? The home or workplace might be a good place to start.
Industry experts and budding entrepreneurs alike met at the swanky Perkins Coie office in Portland's Pearl District this week for a roundtable discussion on smart-meter trends, and the increasing deployment of the meters in homes and businesses to support a smart-grid system. The discussion was hosted by the Oregon branch of The Indus Entrepreneurs (TiE), a nonprofit entrepreneurship group with 53 chapters worldwide. While the attendees spent a good part of the discussion engaging in tangential, friendly debates, the topic focused on some key questions: What opportunities are available for entrepreneurs? And what challenges do they face trying to break into the market?
Supporting a smart-grid network was among the priorities for the Obama administration last year, which announced a $3.4 billion investment for the grid's development, $30 million of which went to Oregon. The smart meters making up the grid are aimed at providing effective, two-way communication between the consumer and the utility for maximum energy efficiency, while also spurring the economy as a bonus. And with 20% compounded annual growth, technology such as smart meters would not only be good for energy consumption, but also for customers by allowing more accurate bills, among other things. But for entrepreneurs, one of the biggest obstacles is the lack of access to meter data due to privacy concerns – a big conversation starter at this discussion given the information's significance in developing business ideas around the meters themselves.
Jobs Watch: Transformational thinking
You can't accuse John Kitzhaber of thinking small. After seven years of tilting at the windmills of our hopelessly inefficient national health care system, he is running for governor on a platform of transformational change. The theme of systemic transformation has permeated his public speeches since his last stint as governor, and it is also the central idea behind his economic strategy for Oregon, which he presented to the public yesterday at the Portland offices of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers.
If ever there was a time for transformational change in Oregon, it is now. Joblessness is rampant, wages are stagnant, and scarcity has given birth to increasingly ugly partisan battles. Big change is in order, but what exactly to change, and how?
Kitzhaber's economic strategy, developed in collaboration with Robert Young, an assistant professor of planning, public policy and management at the University of Oregon, contains strong ideas for building on Oregon's strengths. It calls for aggressive investments in areas where Oregon has a distinct edge already, such as energy efficiency and woody biomass. A statewide campaign to retrofit all public buildings to make them more efficient would create jobs immediately and sharpen the state's green edge. An effort to thin forests responsibly to reduce fire risks while feeding the state's growing biomass industry could bring new hope to Oregon's struggling timber towns.
Editor's Notes: Higher ed's good, bad news
Two pieces of higher education news swam across the flotsam and jetsam of my desk in the past few days. Higher ed news always catches my attention because of its fundamental connection to business.
The Joint Boards of Education, which consists of the Boards of Education and Higher Education, and the Oregon Business Council met as the "Tri-Board" last week to discuss how K-12 and higher education can partner with the business community and, according to OUS Chancellor George Pernsteiner, "to determine what students should be learning, and how to evaluate that learning, not just course by course, but as the cumulative result of a college experience."
The result was that the Tri-board approved standardized credits for the International Baccalaureate classes passed by high school students; approved statewide standards for the General Education course to make it easier to transfer; and approved clarification of the coursework included in the Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer degree.
On The Scene: Web ideas for a new day
A new year means a fresh start, and the business community could certainly use one after the bleakness that was 2009. Any signs of inspiration or progress are welcome, and one needs to look no further than the startup community to find examples. And in Portland, the web/software scene has already started cooking up ideas, both big and small.
This week I stopped by the home base of the Portland Incubator Experiment, a glossy workspace that fits right in with the glitzy Pearl District surrounding it. PIE was launched just last year as a way to bring the web community together and give them a space – provided by Wieden + Kennedy – to collaborate and share resources. PIE held its Demolicious! event last night, a quarterly showcase for Portland's web innovators to share their latest ideas.
Among them was Jason Glaspey, founder of membership diet website Paleo Plan. As an active participant in CrossFit exercise programs, Glaspey knew there were many in the community who were interested in the Paleo diet, but there wasn't a good deal of user-friendly information about the diet available. Glaspey began putting together a website using WordPress, a Suma plugin, WooThemes, Adwords, Campaign Monitor and a handful of recipes that fit the Paleo standards; $2,500 in out-of-pocket expenses and a few weeks later, Paleo Plan was launched at the end of last year. With downloadable meal plans and shopping lists available in addition to the constantly updated recipe roster, Glaspey says the site is already close to turning a profit thanks to the new partnerships – and free promotion – he developed with some CrossFit gyms shortly after launching.
Jobs Watch: Brewing up success
UPDATE (April 7) : Figures released today by the Oregon Brewers Guild show that 2009 was the best year ever for craft brewers. For the first time, total production topped a million barrels of beer, a 15% increase over 2008.
It's always good to start the New Year on a positive note, so let's dispose of the leftover faux champagne and talk Oregon beer. The Eugene Register Guard reported yesterday that Ninkasi Brewing has become the first Oregon brewer to earn regional brewery status in a decade. Ninkasi, which added 10 jobs in 2009, is on track to crank out 30,000 barrels of beer this year, about 10 times the amount it brewed when it first launched just three years ago. By crossing the threshold from brewpub to regional brewer, this growing business joins Oregon icons such as Rogue Ales, Full Sail Brewing and Deschutes Brewery in an industry as resilient as it is quirky.
Oregon continues to buck the national trend by opening new breweries from the Caldera Brewpub in Ashland to Mt. Emily Alehouse in La Grande and Mutiny Brewing in Joseph. The market for craft beer in Oregon is four times as strong as the national average, boosting an industry with more than 5,000 jobs. Portland leads the nation in urban brewpubs, with more than 40 and counting. Most other states have experienced a net loss of brewpubs during the recession, but Oregon has gained several dozen including, I am thrilled to report, two soon to open within walking distance of my home.
Locally crafted beer is just the latest in an amazing string of improvements that have transformed NE 28th into one of Portland's most vibrant neighborhoods. This once-dumpy business district is now overflowing with great restaurants, lively cafes, bike racks and unusual shops. If you want to feel better about Oregon's economic prospects, take a stroll along 28th from Glisan to Stark some evening when it isn't raining and stop into a few places at random. The place is hopping, and it will only get better with the addition of Migration Brewing and Coalition Brewing.
Editor's Notes: Don't twy this at home
Doussard Family Industries held a day-long retreat over the holidays and decided that the company needed to jump on the social media bandwagon in a big way to better facilitate communication externally and internally. DFI has a long history of poor communication practices, and frankly I have to blame it entirely on the operations manager.
Ops is a loyal employee, and sometimes works hard. OK, not hard, but his heart is in the right place. He never forgets to bring beer to the company picnic. But he is just not cutting edge with anything but his hedge clippers.
As CEO, CFO and chief marketer, I had to convince Ops that we needed to get active on Twitter. Despite 31 years of trying to modernize him (hello, 1970s haircut!) Ops is still a Victorian when it comes to new technology, especially ones that require him to interface with humans. So we spent this past weekend in beta so Ops could be trained before we went public. The rule was that we could only communicate via Twitter. No email, no face-to-face, no phone calls.
Jobs Watch: A rough year, but it's all relative
One of the advantages of working for a monthly publication is the week-long holiday we all take to recharge for the new year, a little time to step back and let others feed the media beast. It's a nice perk any year, but after 2009 a few days of rest and reflection are more vital than ever. I can't say I enjoyed 2009, but I did survive it. You know things are iffy when you feel fortunate just to have a job that isn't getting chopped and a home that isn't getting sold out from under you through foreclosure. I believe it was Einstein who said that it's all relative.
For better or worse, I'm entering my 22nd year of journalism in 2010. I've covered deadly dull town board meetings in Guilderland, NY, surreal street demonstrations in Seattle and commercial fishing on Lake Malawi. As careers go it's been borderline when measured by pay. Another way to look at it is that I've gotten front-row access to great events and amazing people, and I've gotten paid to hunt things down and write about my findings. There are worse ways to go through life than following your instincts from story to story.
If you had told me 25 years ago I would end up working as managing editor for a business publication, I would have suggested you put down the crack pipe and guess again. But here I am. I had not covered business fulltime before taking this job almost exactly two years ago, and in my fervor to embrace my new beat I started reading The Wall Street Journal every day and talking to as many executives and analysts as possible. That's when I started getting this strong sense of impending doom. One of my first major stories for the magazine was The Party's Over, a dark look at group denial, the housing market and the Oregon economy.
Editor's Notes: Resolutions R Us
I did not lose 10 pounds, learn French or save more for retirement. I did not call my mother more often, did not curb my iPhone app addiction and certainly came nowhere near being more forgiving and accepting of the weaknesses and irritating habits of others. And that promise to spend less time on Gawker? Crikey. I'm up to three hours a day now that Tiger News has gone 24-7.
The New Year's resolutions I made 12 months ago are in a pathetic dead heap at my feet as 2010 rounds the bend. But hope springs eternal and I'm ready to make a new batch. Over at 43things.com, 84,659 people have made 172,613 resolutions. The top five: lose weight, be happy, fall in love, get a job, travel. Fall in love is a resolution? The serendipity of romance clearly is a last-century deal.
Anyway, goody for those 84,659 people, but I need to lower the bar. So I resolve to never step on a weight scale again, never say Avatar changed my life, and never utter the phrase "lipstick on a pig."

controls in low- to moderate-risk situations have had mixed results. This may be due to underlying differences in the baseline purified protein derivative (PPD) conversion rates in different hospitals. In addition to the adoption of the whole guidelines, a number of studies have focused on parts of the guidelines. This is particularly true of administrative controls. It is in this area where the most variability in practice will arise, particularly in designing criteria for patient isolation, owing to the wide differences in patient populations seen at different hospitals.
Although compliance with the guidelines in the early 1990s was suboptimal, a number of studies show significant improvements in guideline compliance. However, there are many areas that still have considerable room for improvement, particularly in the education of health care workers about tuberculosis. Information on implementation of the guidelines outside of the inpatient setting of acute-care hospitals is scarce. Some evidence exists that many emergency departments are making progress.
The cost of implementation of the guidelines can be substantial, but many of these costs are one-time facility improvements. Although the ongoing costs of a tuberculosis control program can be substantial, these programs may be relatively cost-effective compared with the costs incurred in evaluating patients or healthcare workers exposed to a nonisolated tuberculosis patient.
After decades of declining rates of tuberculosis in the United States, case rates leveled off and then increased in the late 1980s and early 1990s (1, 2). A number of factors led to the reversal of the previous trend: decreased public health infrastructure, the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) epidemic, and an influx of immigrants from areas where tuberculosis is endemic (3). The problem was compounded by the fact that many physicians and other healthcare workers had very little experience with tuberculosis. They often did not suspect the diagnosis when a patient with the disease first presented and, even if suspected, often had little appreciation for the infection control issues involved. Almost inevitably, a number of nosocomial outbreaks of tuberculosis occurred, including outbreaks involving multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR tuberculosis) (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10). In December 1990, CDC published "Guidelines for Preventing the Transmission of Tuberculosis in Health-Care Settings, with Special Focus on HIV-Related Issues" (11) in response to these outbreaks. Subsequently, these guidelines were expanded and refined with the publication in October 1994 of "Guidelines for Preventing the Transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Health-Care Facilities, 1994" (12).

(Thursday, October 10, 2013 – Philadelphia, Pa) – The 22nd Philadelphia Film Festival, which runs from Thursday, October 17 – Sunday, October 27, is excited to announce additions to the film line-up.
The Festival is thrilled to be adding a Centerpiece Screening of 12 Years A Slave, already one of the most critically acclaimed and highly anticipated films of the year. The follow-up from renowned director Steve McQueen to 2011's Shame, 12 Years A Slave tells the incredible true story of one man's fight for survival and freedom after being abducted and sold into slavery. The screening of 12 Years A Slave will take place on Saturday, October 19th at 8:30pm in the Perelman Theater at the Kimmel Center, in the timeslot formerly occupied by Nebraska.
Likewise the Festival is excited to announce that the screening of Nebraska, previously scheduled for Saturday, October 19th at 8:30pm, will take place instead on Monday, October 21st at 7:30pm at the Prince Music Theater, with director Alexander Payne and actor Will Forte scheduled to attend. Bruce Dern, who was previously announced to appear, is unfortunately no longer expected to be in attendance.
Finally, the Festival has also added Omar, the Best Foreign Film nominee from the Palestinian Territory for the Academy Awards. The new film from Oscar-nominated director Hany Abu-Assad (Paradise Now), Omar is an intense and romantic thriller about a Palestinian teenager whose life is thrown into disarray when he is arrested for the alleged shooting of an Israeli soldier and asked to turn on those closest to him. Omar will screen twice, on Wednesday, October 23 at 7:30pm at the Cinemark University 6 and at 12:00pm on Thursday, October 24th at the Ritz East. These screenings are in place of Documented, which will no longer be included in the Festival due to technical issues.
Tickets for the above screenings are now available for purchase through the Festival Box Office, located at 1425 Locust Street, 2nd floor of The Condo Shop, as well as through the Festival website at www.filmadelphia.org/festival.

Washington, DC (PRWEB) February 20, 2013
Earlier this month, the Office of Management and Budget issued a 244-page proposal that, if fully implemented, would radically change both the form and the substance of federal policy on how federal grants and cooperative agreements are administered and audited. "OMB's Reinvention of Federal Grants Management: What Recipients and Subrecipients Need to Know," an intensive three-hour March 5 webinar from Federal Fund Management Advisor, will address the key elements of the comprehensive package.
The final uniform document OMB issues would represent the most significant change in federal fund management policy since the early 1970s. The proposed "guidance" would consolidate policies from eight current OMB circulars into a master document that the federal agencies will adopt in codified regulations, and fold together familiar but often confusing and conflicting administrative requirements, cost principles, and audit policies affecting the full range of recipients and subrecipients — state and local governments, colleges and universities, hospitals and other nonprofit organizations.
The March 5 webinar will be split into three hour-long parts, each including a question-and-answer session. Some of the planned discussion topics are:
Visit http://federalfundmanagement.com/webinars/wg305_030513 for more details and registration information.
About the Speakers

Since then, he has been a consultant, trainer or advisor to award and audit units in 16 federal award-making departments and agencies, and to recipient and subrecipient organizations and their professional advisors across the United States and in 18 foreign countries. He is a Charter Life Member of the National Grants Management Association and served on its Board of Directors for five years.
Jonathan Breul is a former senior advisor at the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, who was lead staff member on development of the original common rule "Uniform Administrative Requirements for State, Local, and Tribal Governments" and on implementation of the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA).
Sefton Boyars, CPA, CGFM, is the former regional inspector general for audit at the U.S. Department of Education, who worked extensively on the government-wide procedures for review and reliance on audits prepared under the Single Audit Act and on ED's Cooperative Audit Resolution Initiative that has served as a model for OMB's proposals for more effective audits.

Customer reviews
By Jan Grilanc 01 Apr 2011
What amazes me most about this trilogy is how down to earth is the story it tells. I know this is a fantasy genre, so it might sound a bit strange when I say the books are trying to be realistic, but whereas one would expect a steady flow of plot related coincidences that help protagonists endure through different hardships, here things are much much different.
Our heroes endure one hardship after another in order to achieve their goals. The sough after success often proves to be just a brief one, usually revealing more complex situations and problems yet to be solved. Add to that the inner battles that characters constantly fight within their minds and an ending of epic proportions and what we get is a story, worthy of being read (and re-read).
I picked this trilogy totally by chance, unaware of what to expect and I have to say I was positively surprised - my mind was blown away!

tears cannot restore her: therefore, I weep
tears cannot restore her: therefore, I weep
Jennifer Reeder, 2010
The Box
As part of the Wexner Center's 25th anniversary, The Box is dedicating the entire year of programming to work produced in the Film/Video Studio. Screenings in this free exhibition space for video, located just across from the Wexner Center Store, run continuously seven days a week, the same hours as our ticket office (Mon–Wed: 9 AM–6 PM; Thu–Fri: 9 AM–8 PM; Sat: 10 AM–8 PM; Sun: 11 AM–6 PM).
This month's program is being shown in association with Jennifer Reeder's March 17 visit to screen her short film, Seven Songs About Thunder (2010).
By turns awkward and poignant, Tears Cannot Restore Her continues Reeder's explorations of human relationships, intimacy, and alienation. A failed relationship drives a female sign language interpreter to have an emotional outburst while translating in front of a classroom. The professor's lecture on electromagnetism is "translated" into an emotional signed soliloquy on relationships and her personal trauma. (8 mins., HD video)
A former Wexner Center Residency Award recipient, Ohio State alumna, and Columbus native, Reeder is now based in Chicago where she is an associate professor of moving image and chair of graduate studies at the School of Art and Design, University of Illinois, Chicago. Tears Cannot Restore Her premiered in a solo exhibition at Andrew Rafacz Gallery, Chicago in 2009.

are rechargeable batteries came with Mobee 1.2 volt like other brands? or they are manufactured to give different volts ?
- Asked by Mohammad A from Jamaica
Mobee Magic Charger for Apple Magic Mouse
Product No Longer Available
2 Answers from the Community
The charger comes with a batterie pack. Inside the pack are 2 NiMH batteries. The NiMH battery specification tells that 1.2V (chemical reason) are offered. Thus the batterie pack has a nominal power of 2.4V. This is sufficient for the mouse.
- Answered by Harald S
Yes, battery pack is 2 cells of NiMH batteries, these are 1.2V per cell. Thus when fully charged that's 2.4V which means that OSX will read 70 to 80% only (as opposed to Alkaline batteries that are 1.5v per cell)
