I did it!! But I had no clue what to pick, so I basically just went with whatever sounded good. :MandJ: Oh well, I tried!! :)
Done :)
I'm in. :)
I didn't realize Tupac: Resurrection was nominated!
I'm in.
Great way to procrastinate. I'm in.
Congrats RedsFanatic Do you work for Price-Waterhouse?
I got 10 right for 1000 points. Not sure how they tally the "minutes over" bonus, but I picked 11 minutes and Chris Rock signed off at the 10 minute 45 second mark.
Congrats Redsfanatic. Your picking Cate Blanchett was probably the difference.
They ranked them wrong.
Yeah, I know. It looks like there's a bug there.Quote:

I enjoyed Chris Rock, but I'll be surprised if he's asked back.
That's the exact same thing I asked my wife when he was on stage with Barbara Streisand. I think he was.Quote:

The Beginning of the End
The U.S. combat presence in Iraq is over, and it is likely all troops will be gone by the end of next year. But strong support will still be needed in the weeks and months to come, lest the country slip back into chaos and conflict.
- By John D. Negroponte John D. Negroponte was ambassador to Iraq from June 2004 to April 2005, the first director of national intelligence under President George W. Bush, and later, deputy secretary of state. He is now vice- chairman of McLarty Associates, a leading international strategic advisory firm in Washington, D.C.
On Thursday, the last U.S. combat brigade to leave Iraq crossed into Kuwait, fulfilling President Barack Obama's pledge to withdraw all but 50,000 American troops from a country with which the United States has become intimately, and painfully, familiar over the last seven and a half years.
The remaining soldiers and marines will stay in Iraq until Dec. 31, 2011, for training and other support purposes. Although the possibility cannot be ruled out, it seems quite unlikely that their presence will be extended beyond the 2011 deadline. Political imperatives in both Iraq and the United States seem to work against this possibility, even though there are those in both countries who argue that a longer-term U.S. residual force is needed.
Having landed in Baghdad as U.S. ambassador to Iraq at the end of June 2004, I find it a truly remarkable and positive accomplishment that we are able to look to the day not too far off when Iraqi security forces will be able to assume full and complete responsibility for their country's security. At the time of my arrival, Iraqi security forces were, for all practical purposes, nonexistent. There was, for example, only one — yes, one — Iraqi army battalion and it was composed of various ethnic and sectarian elements. Today, there are some 600,000 Iraqi security forces and important strides have been made toward giving Iraq's security organizations a national rather than partisan character. This is no small achievement; it has taken seven years to accomplish and only after some false starts and perilous moments.
In the wake of the Samarra Mosque bombing in 2006 and the ensuing sectarian strife, those of us concerned with Iraq could not have imagined the dramatic reversal of fortunes that would occur in the ensuing two years — the death of al Qaeda in Iraq leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the liberation of Basra by the Iraqi army, and the extension of the government's authority to the country as a whole. By 2008, these improvements had given the government of Iraq the necessary self-assurance to negotiate the withdrawal arrangements that are now being implemented.
But can Iraq really remain stable once U.S. troops have completely withdrawn? While there are no guarantees, the prospects for Iraq's security and stability beyond 2011 look as good or better than they have at any time in the recent past. The Iraqi army now has close to 200 trained combat battalions, a formidable increase from the somber days when I arrived in 2004, and they are spread throughout the country. The specter of sectarianism poisoning the ranks of Iraqi military and police forces remains the single most serious threat to be guarded against. But progress since the 2007 surge in nurturing the army and police as truly national institutions has been encouraging. Vigilance and political maturity will be needed to ensure that this positive trend continues.
If our military role in Iraq ends soon, as it most likely will, then what will be the glue that holds our two countries' relationship together? For one thing, the United States intends to maintain a robust civilian diplomatic and developmental presence in Iraq for the foreseeable future — so as not to jeopardize the hard fought gains of the last seven years. The sending of senior diplomat James Jeffrey to Baghdad is a signal of continued high-level interest and concern for the stability and well-being of Iraq. But this signal needs to be reinforced by congressional support for the funding requests that have been submitted for programs in areas such as technical assistance, rule of law, poverty reduction, women's issues, and economic development. And we need to continue efforts to encourage U.S. private-sector involvement in Iraq's economy. Last, but certainly not least, our reduced military profile will place an even higher premium on proactive regional diplomacy. While the focus of U.S. military efforts abroad has now shifted irrevocably toward Afghanistan, falling short of our diplomatic and funding commitments to Iraq risks allowing the country to slip back into conflict and chaos.
But can the steadying influence of U.S. diplomacy on the Iraqi political process can be maintained as our military presence diminishes? It's hard to say, but it was inevitable that sooner or later this aspect of our relationship also had to be normalized. Just as in the transition from occupation to full sovereignty Iraq is assuming responsibility for its security, so too must it take complete ownership of its own political arrangements. The achievement of a parliamentary democracy in Iraq so soon after the demise of a long-entrenched dictatorial regime is a remarkable accomplishment. That's not to say that the current situation, with the recent spike in suicide bombings and a continued stalemate in forming a government since the March elections is ideal, but there has been real progress. A continued U.S. civilian presence will be a strong encouragement to that process, but the days of backroom political deals brokered by the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad will be fewer and farther between.
That doesn't mean the United States won't remain critical to Iraq's future. Too often in the past we have tired of an international undertaking when our military role has finished and "our boys have come home." We should not underestimate the effect that a continued demonstration of interest and concern can have on Iraq's future. It is important that not only Iraq but the region as a whole understand that this long-suffering country continues to enjoy strong American support. A properly endowed U.S. government civilian presence in Iraq can help preserve the gains of the past seven years and help avoid a repeat of the instabilities of the past.

Critique my WIP please
Hey guys
Just wondering if you could critique my work from a design pov and give some advice on the overall piece. I plan to to add a small squad following behind with a couple big mechs towering over them. Just need to get this guy done so i can use him as a reference.
Thanks for your time

well, my thought was : looks kinda like Halo but not as cool. Force yourself to design something really cool that doesn't look like yet another space soldier we've all seen. What else could a space soldier look like?
-start a revolution.
April 4th, 2013 #3
You got some sketches of the entire idea? Would be wise to plan out the overall image with the mechs and composition than focusing on rendering at this point.

Maybe you could strengthen his silhouette, his left arm is very hard for me to make out. If you don't want to change his arm position you cold separate the the left arm especially the hand by making its values a bit more different from the torso's values. hope this helps
April 22nd, 2013 #5
Hey guys, thank you so much for your replies and i'm very sorry for not replying earlier.
DanielBodinof - Yeah your right, its no way near as cool. I think I will do some heavy research in the future to make the design feel fresh and unique
Slothboy3000 - I'm not sure why but I didn't. I started off with the helmet and worked into that way. Kind of stupid way of working I know.
Philipopotamus - Thanks for the tips, really appriciate it. I started off with a weird but interesting silhouette, but it felt wonky and the overall design didn't feel balanced
See what I mean ^^
Here is a more completed version of the design I did. I feel it was more of good learning experience than an actual good design. As it started out as a GDI redesign, I thought the logo would be nice on it.
Any feedback on anything would be great. Thanks for your time

You've not lived if you haven't been inside a tight-gripping Japanese babe. And you've not lived as a king if you haven't been inside the ultra-restrictive rear passage of an extremely tight-gripping Japanese babe. So, perhaps you'd enjoy a vicarious wander through the annals of the sordid anal sex scene of contemporary Japan. (It's actually a great deal more fun than many imagine!)
Left untranslated, it's easy to assume the high-pitched sounds of Maiko Teens young women are disapproving or uncooperative. Apparently, they're as positive as can be. Japanese seem to have a wildly different national sexuality than Westerners, but Maiko Teens is a relatively tame example of that and simply showcases a bevy of young Asian sluts eager to master (and in some cases learn) the various sexual arts. Shot and presented in HD, Maiko Teens is a hardcore J-porn site as familiar as it is curious, and it's all the better for it.
All Japanese Pass hosts 19 websites, each one showcasing a different side of the JAV industry. Of these 19 sites, OCreampies isn't the messiest, nor is it the most successful at bringing its members the internal creamings they desire. What it is, though, is a fun, colorful, and very lively site that, although censored, delivers many strong scenes that see cute Japanese spooge-sponges soak up every drop they're given. Any creampie fanatic would be mad to miss this!
The treat of fucking a woman in the ass should never be ruined by vision-obscuring clouds of pixels hovering over the very asshole in question, but that's exactly what happens at the heavily censored Anal Nippon. Ok, sure, censorship sucks and is rife in the Japanese porn industry, but even censorship can't sink one of All Japanese Pass's most tantalizing sites, can it? Stalled updates, a lack of HD videos, and models harder to read than Ulysses in poorly translated Swahili, don't help matters much but the right-good rootings taking place here are colorful and carnal enough to keep any anal fan interested in an extended visit to Anal Nippon.
Maiko might be a Japanese word referring to apprentice Geisha, but the women featured in Maiko MILFs' uncensored hardcore movies are far from inexperienced teens. They may behave in a slightly nervous way, giggling and shrieking from time to time, but that's the legendary submissiveness of the Japanese woman coming in. Rest assured, Maiko's MILFs are fine ladies indeed, well versed in all manner of sexual expression, and they're eager to make your acquaintance.
If you've somehow never witnessed the incredible Ava Devine sucking and fucking her way through California, Nevada, New York, and (if her salacious Twitter is to be believed) the entire world, you're seriously missing out. There is no more adventurous, outrageous, or courageous woman in porn, folks, and her official Pornstar Platinum website, also called Ava Devine, proves this with a hefty helping of extraordinarily hardcore sex scenes that show Ava banging her male, female, and trans friends for her entertainment and (at least marginally) yours.
Weirdness may seem to come naturally to many Japanese. The national diet of bizarre pop culture creations, outlandish (but often prudish) sexuality, and seizure-inducing television shows seems to have rattled the collective sexual hivemind of Japan, resulting in the kind of porn you find on a site called Wierd Japan [sic]. From aliens invading gaping pussies with their many tentacled limbs to aggressive impromptu fucking in a storeroom filled with sex dolls to candle-wax-covered beauties in bondage, Wierd Japan is a bizarre and often brilliant hardcore Japanese wonderland.
When Tera Patrick retired from porn, plenty of guys retired from beating off. Then Tera stayed retired and the same guys grew frustrated, wondering when she'd return and they could unleash their devoted reservoir in her honor. Now those guys are flocking to Tera Patrick dot com, Tera's official online base and the only place to enjoy new Tera content in High Definition. Is Tera's site, part of the Fame Digital network, really up to par with its neighbors Rocco Siffredi, Silvia Saint, and Peter North, or is it just a tired retread of Tera's former glories? On the case: your pal, Mr. Pink.

In this course, author and business coach Dave Crenshaw teaches you to get the most from your meetings—turning them into productive avenues for communicating, connecting, and accomplishing real work. The course demonstrates a simple, usable framework that will help you lead and participate in meetings large and small and provides insight into how to schedule, conduct, and follow up on meetings with minimum time and maximum results.
This course qualifies for 1.25 Category A professional development units (PDUs) through lynda.com, PMI Registered Education Provider #4101.
Ever heard of the concept of taking minutes in the meeting? The idea is that one person acts as a scribe and summarizes comments and points covered in the meeting. To some this may seem like an outdated or unnecessary concept, yet I've found that this can be a very effective tool to make sure that everyone is on the same page, both during and after the meeting. First, you'll want to designate someone as the note taker. You can rotate this responsibility; however, I've found that there are some people best suited for this.
These individuals usually have a high attention to detail, and they're very fast note takers. However, you decide to do it, I'd recommend that the meeting leader chooses one person to be the note taker for each meeting. Next, to make the task simple for that note taker, we've provided an outline of how to take notes. Use this outline as is or adapt to your situation. At the top of the form you'll find places to indicate the leader, the note taker, and the date and time of the meeting.
When it comes to the note taking itself, I recommend that the note taker focuses notes on actions rather than trying to cover each word a person says. Listen for and take notes about doing, changing, and making things happen, both inside and outside the group. For example, when summarizing the development portion of the meeting, you might write one sentence about what the development was and then add one or two bullet points about actions that you can take as a result.
When taking notes, make bullet points of the commitments people make. For instance, if during the meeting I commit to Bonnie that I'm going to deliver a document to her next Tuesday, then make a note "Dave will deliver the document to Bonnie by next Tuesday." You'll use these notes in two ways. At the end of the meeting you'll summarize the notes to help with making sure that each person knows their commitments from the meeting. Then after the meeting the note taker can send an email with the notes to everyone who was in attendance, or even was absent. That way everyone has a chance to review again what was covered, and if anyone missed the meeting, they can also feel like they caught the key points of what was discussed.
Keep note taking as simple as possible. The end result we want is to help people follow through on their commitments and strengthen the communication between attendees.

"One must keep in mind that once engineered nanoparticles enter the food chain, this is an accumulative process. Tolerable levels today can become dangerous tomorrow. This is why it is important to study not only whether man-made nanoparticles can be taken up from soil but also how they are biotransformed in the plants." concludes Jorge Gardea-Torresdey.
Arturo A. Keller of the University of California in Santa Barbara and Co-Director of the UC Center for the Environmental Implications of Nanotechnology, who was not involved in this research, comments:
"It's a fascinating paper with some genuine concerns in terms of potential health implications. Whilst we are not able to directly attribute nanoparticle ingestion to any particular disease or symptoms, we know from the latest laboratory studies the potency some have in terms of infiltrating our cells and tissue and causing harm. The fact that these potentially dangerous particles are being taken up by such a common crop suggests a need to review what materials are used in agriculture around the world. In particular, it raises concern over the use of treated waste water to irrigate crops all over the world which may provide a route for these potentially dangerous particles to get into our bodies if the content of the water is not more tightly managed."

Aircast Shoulder Cryo/Cuff w/Cooler reviews
Robert I recently purchased this item. This has been the best option to maintain cold therapy all over and around the shoulder area. Though it is fairly expensive (as I had to buy an extended size) this option worked very well for me as I have had the thermos/pump portion from a prior surgery. As I have had continuing problems with my shoulder, I plan on getting a lot of use from this item. It is well made, allows for disconnection while cold adding to the mobility. Great for single people as it can be applied without assistance. Trying to secure cold pads or frozen peas is very frustrating. - Robert
Krista RN Have worked with this product in my hospital post-op and privately at home.....a must have item to aid in pain/swelling control - Krista RN
Joyce My husband just had shoulder surgery and I purchased this product from his Orthopedic Surgeon. I, too, agree it is rather expensive, but it is worth every penny it costs. Having to ice his shoulder 3 to 4 times a day, I put ice in one time and it stays cold for the entire period of time. I highly recommend this product to anyone who requires frequent cold therapy. I love how you can disconnect it to leave the room without having to carry the entire product around with you. An excellent product and so easy to use and I highly recommend it. I can assure you it has made my life so much easier. - Joyce
Debra from KY I recently had a shattered right shoulder/w complete replacement. Within three months of the right replacement my left shoulder started acting up more than normal. The left shoulder had been dislocated several times, thus finally being diagnosed with rotor cuff tears. I finally found this ice system that completely changed my recovery. I was taking three different RX's daily for pain. With this icing system I have reduced that number down to two. I never leave home without this cuff and cooler. Mine is electric and I think it is worth every penny. - Debra from KY
Lynne Today is my second day home from rotor cuff surgery. Hospital provided this unit upon discharge. I live alone and this unit provided me with the ability to ice my shoulder one handed. Ice lasts almost 24 hrs. Service unit one time and you can ice shoulder every hour. I placed unit on the floor to drain. And then put the unit in the sink, and got down on one knee to fill. The unit is gravity driven. No plugs. No batteries. No fuss. Well worth it! - Lynne
Questions on Aircast Shoulder Cryo/Cuff w/Cooler
- From Gayle Faiers at 9/27/2010 2:41 PM
- Does it come in left and right shoulder?
- This is a universal cuff and can be worn on either the right or left shoulder.
- From Joanne Healey at 3/15/2011 8:08 PM
- Will I be able to 1) apply the cuff myself; 2) infate/activate the cuff myself?
I have had cryo treatments in a Physio Therapy setting and have found it very helpful. Unless I can use and operate the cryo cuff system on my own, there would be no point in my purchasing.
Response appreciated.
Thank you
- With the cryo cuff it is very easy to put on the cuff as well and use the system. I would suggest looking into getting the motorized unit, after your lift the cooler up and do a pre-fill, you will plug in the motor and it will continuously circulate the water for you until you turn the motor off.
- Will I be able to 1) apply the cuff myself; 2) infate/activate the cuff myself?
- From Ashley, CST at 11/9/2011 5:13 AM
- I was just wondering if the coolers were reusable. I noticed the website says the coolers work with all cryo/cuff models so can you use the same cooler for different cuffs on different patients?
- Yes these coolers are good to use for years as long as you clean out and store them probably when they are not in use.
- From Erin Sample at 11/18/2011 2:26 PM
- Once the cryotherapy session is over and the motor is turned off do I need to de-fill the cuff during periods of un use?
- Erin,
Yes, as much of the water as possible should be removed from the cuff.
If you have additional questions, please call 1-800-553-6019
- From Naomi at 4/24/2012 5:35 PM
- How do you drain the cuff to put fresh cold water in?
- To drain the cuff keep the cuff attached to the cooler and lower the cooler below the cuff and loosen or remove the lid of the cooler. Should you have any other questions please call 800-553-6019.
- From Rich at 6/16/2012 9:49 AM
- Can the unit be use on either the right or left shoulder?
- Yes the cuff can be worn on either shoulder.
- From Richard Wolff at 6/10/2013 1:05 PM
- How much is shoulder cuff without the cooler since I already have a cooler
- Hello, Richard -
That replacement shoulder cuff is $84.99 and free standard shipping.
Thank you and have a wonderful day!
- From Diane at 6/22/2013 2:58 PM
- Can you purchase the shoulder cuff with the motorized cooler? If so. How much?
- Hello,
You will need a Physician's Prescription to purchase a Motorized unit. See the link below for costs.
Thanks for contacting Donjoy.
- From Paul at 4/2/2014 5:42 PM
- Can I use my medical flex spending card to purchase the Aircast Shoulder Cyro/cuff with cooler?
- You would need to ask your flex medical plan if that is a acceptable item to use if for.
- From Dot at 4/13/2014 10:01 PM
- Should a shoulder cuff be used after shoulder replacement surgery. I already have the knee cuff & cooler. Does Medicare cover the cost of a new cuff?
- Dot
For a shoulder surgery you would need to get the shoulder cuff. I do not know if MC will cover that.
- From Meredith at 4/23/2014 8:38 AM
- can a motor be added to a non-motorized unit?
- Thank you for your question. The lid that contains the motor can be purchased in the Replacement Parts section of BetterBraces.com. You would select AirCast Parts and find the lid labeled "AirCast Cryo Cuff IC Lid" http://www.betterbraces.com/aircast-parts-accessories.
- From Kathy at 7/24/2014 6:23 PM
- I'm having full thickness rotator cuff repair and bone spurs removed soon. Trying to decide which unit will work best. Will the non motorized unit do the trick? What's the difference?
- Kathy
The two units use grivity to fill and empy the cold water into the should cuff, by lifting the cooler 12-15 inches above to fill and placing the cooler on the floor to empy. The motorized unit pushes air into cooler which creates internittant compression in your shoulder cuff. so the motorized unit gives you cold therapy and compression where the gravity fed only gives you cold therapy. There is another difference, the motorized unit does stay cold longer before you have to empty the cuff.
- From richard feldman at 8/2/2014 3:45 PM
- My friend has Rhuematoid Arthritis. The condition is not the same as a sports trauma, or a surgery problem. Does the cooler have an adjustment for temperture so she is not too cold? How long can a person take a cold treatment for? For RA how long does the treatment last before the cuff has to be applied again? Thank you,
Rick Feldman
- The CryoCuff does not have regulated temperature. The temp is determined by how much ice is inserted into the cooler. Treatment times are determined by a physicina but the cuff should stay cold for 30-45 minutes before is will need to be emptied and re-filled with cold water. She should ask her physician how oftern she should used the cold therapy

- I had total shoulder replacement done sept 10 th I have olot of swellening still what would u recommend I ise just reg ice packs they don't seem to work well at al. Thank you
- Tammie
The Cryocuff would most likley be a more conveniant way to ice the shoulder than ice packs becaus the cuff fits over the shoulder and is fill so that the entire surface is cooled. You will also not get any dripping that you get when the ice bag melts.
- From thomas robinson at 3/10/2015 9:45 AM
- What is the medical code for the cryocuff shoulder unit? I need to tell the ins. co.
- The IC (motarized) verion is E0236
The gravity fed system is A9270
- What is the medical code for the cryocuff shoulder unit? I need to tell the ins. co.
- From Mike L at 4/27/2015 1:18 AM
- I have one of these lying around from an old surgery and I was wondering if it can be safely used as a heat therapy pad by filling it with hot tap water.
- Mike
It has not been tested for hot water so we do not know if it will damage any of the parts.
- From Bob Barlow at 6/20/2015 1:24 PM
- Is the Air Cast Cryogenic Cuff comparable with the Don Joy Coller unit?
Thanks, Bob Barlowz
- No the Aircast Shoulder Cryo/Cuff is not compatible with the DonJoy Iceman unit. You will need to order the DonJoy Shoulder Cold Pad, below is the link:

W: B. Fuentes (2-8)
L: J. Howell
S: Bailey (12)
The Oakland A's are finally doing the things we were asking them to do before the All-Star break: timley hitting, being patient at the plate, moving runners over, getting clutch base hits, and scoring runs.
All of this has helped the A's in the one catagory that counts: WINNING!! DUH!
Connor Jackson's two run double in the seventh inning proved to be the game winner as the A's rallied from three runs down to beat the Tampa Bay Rays 7-5 in the first game of a four game series at the O.co Coliseum on Monday night.
Rays starter Jeremy Hellickson pitched to one batter in the sixth inning but still left the ball game with a three run lead. Scott Sizemore was that batter, also scored on a David DeJesus sacrifice fly in the inning. It would also open up for a big rally in the seventh inning as the Rays bullpen couldn't hold the lead for Hellickson, who pitched five innings only giving up three runs on four hits.
Kelly Shoppach would knock A's starter Guillermo Moscoso out of the game in the sixth as well as he hit his sixth home run of the season of the young A's right hander. Moscoso gave up five runs on eight hits, while walking four and giving up two home runs, including a first inning home run from Ben Zobrist (12th of the season).
While the A's bullpen shined, the Rays faltered. Hideki Matsui singled to start the rally in the sixth inning of Rays pitcher J.P. Howell, followed by a Josh Willingham walk. David DeJesus would get Matsui in on an RBI single. Joel Peralta entered the game for the Rays and gave up the deciding blow, a two run double that gave the A's the lead. They didn't look back as Coco Crisp added insurance with an RBI double in the eighth inning.
Andrew Bailey got two strikeouts in the ninth inning to get the save.
Player of the Game: Connor Jackson: 2-for-4, 1 run, 2 RBI *game winning double in the seventh.

Executive DogsRead MoreThough primarily a dog walking company, Executive Dogs is also responsible for many of the new friendships made within the Los Angeles area. Their staffers get to know each pet and develop close bonds with the animal. That way, dogs look forward to walks as much as owners look forward to having more time on their hands. To keep canines calm and at ease, the company's team makes sure to step over mom-threatening cracks, and only walks pets individually or with other dogs that live in the same household. The dog lovers also house sit for owners who require extended time away from home.MobileEast Los Angeles, CA US
A Dog's Life RescueRead MoreA Dog?s Life Rescue was born out of a great love for animals. Co-founders Julia Pennington and Allison Lange lead an all-volunteer team dedicated to rescuing abandoned, abused, and neglected dogs and other animals. The volunteers predominantly serve as street rescuers: whenever they get a call about an injured dog stuck in busy freeway traffic, they stop whatever they're doing to help rescue it. The organization relies on a network of fosters to shelter, care for, and rehabilitate pups while they await placement in permanent loving homes. A Dog?s Life Rescue holds adoption events three times per month, and also helps educate low-income communities on the importance of spaying or neutering pets.357 S FAIRFAX AVE # 282LOS ANGELES, CA US

American Pet Hotel & Dog TrainingRead MoreThey say you can't teach an old dog new tricks, but Ira Meisler doesn't buy it. The real-life dog whisperer has used positive reinforcement—namely love, affection, and praise—to train pups for the past 30 years and invites dogs of all ages to enroll at American Pet Hotel & Dog Training. Puppies and mature dogs alike practice and absorb basic commands and—with or without their owners' help—learn the art of potty training. For instance, customers can drop their pooches off for a few weeks of in-kennel training or have a trainer come to them for in-home sessions. Either way, Ira guarantees a lifetime of good behavior. If at any time a dog begins to regress on its training, he'll offer a refresher course absolutely free of charge. Beyond training services, American Pet Hotel & Dog Training also operates just what one would expect: a doggy hotel. While owners are away on vacation, guests can rest comfortably inside individual private indoor dog runs, each of which is cleaned and disinfected throughout the day. During their stays, they can lounge atop fleece bedding, frolic with staff during playtime, and enjoy at least six walks every day. Cats can rest their paws at the hotel as well. Private "kitty condos" ensconce felines in cozy spaces with relaxing music, and they also can enjoy designated play time with a scratching post or two. To ensure the safety of all pets, the hotel has a veterinarian on call 24/7 or 168/49 in dog time.1819 Pontius AveLos Angeles, CA US
Pooch HotelRead MoreOutfitted with spas and treadmills, Pooch Hotels are nearly the same as human accommodations, with one key difference: your dog might get a tummy-rub with their turndown service. These venues were all designed by dog-lovers whose main priority was canine comfort, regardless of the length of each guest's stay. Dogs on daycare visits, for example, are sorted by size and temperament before entering one of multiple play areas. Monitored by human "Pack Leaders," they socialize amidst toys, treats, and wading pools at select locations, or run outside if the weather and facilities permit. Those who have booked a room for the night can relax in a private suite, outfitted with a glass door rather than bars. These range from standard to presidential and even palace suites?rooms outfitted with luxury bedding and flat-screen televisions tuned to dog-friendly programming. Customers might also schedule a spa appointment for their pooch, choosing from services such as baths, "pawdicures," and even facials. The hotels pursue peace of mind for owners as actively as they pamper their dogs. Certain locations have installed web cameras in the play areas and suites, enabling people to check in on their pets and guilt them about the time they napped instead of writing a postcard. Staff remain on-hand at all times to welcome newcomers and care for already-snoozing pups.960 North Highland AvenueLos Angeles, CA US

Compliment her on everything about her body in a very sexual dirty manner. You have to do this, that's your problem right, that's what sex is all about. Make her feel like she's the hottest girl on the planet. And then give it to her like an untamed lion. She should feel comfortable then. Also, if she feels ugly or overweight, get a gym membership and get yourself in shape, ask her if she wants to go too. That should boost her confidence even more if she looks better physically. Yeah, you give her flowers and you COOK her DINNER, that dinner is probably the problem, cook healthier so she can lose weight and feel good again. You can't be fryin up pork chops and chicken and expect her to feel good. She asks you if you want to have sex because she doesn't know if you want to have sex with her. Make it clear, don't let her ask, go wild like a raging beast, let her know how fine she is, and tear that ass up! It's full proof.
What Girls Said 2
it could be that you're hurting her in bed and she's not sharing this fact with you and instead it's turned her off from sex completely. I was in a long term relationship sometime ago and towards the end I refuse to entertain ever having sex with my partner. then when I met someone else, they were gentler, smaller and easier on me so I enjoyed it again. but mind you sex with the former longterm partner was great! just that sometimes our size changes too, we're not always that open to intercourse, and sex during those times can be very painful
It doesn't seem like your wife is that much of a sexual person. I know you 2 have been married 4 awhile it just seems that she's not as comfortable as you. That's not 2 say that she no longer attracted to u, you said yourself that you 2 spoon in bed, kiss, and call each other , the fire has not died it just seems to have dimmed. Make her more comfortable, teach her, and be patient.
What Guys Said 2
Sounds to me like she is not very comfortable sexually.
Have you talked to her about this, or asked or why these things make her uncomfortable? Don't be confrontational, but more on the side of you are really want to make her feel as good as she make you feel, and that you don't want her to feel uncomfortable at all.
You could also talk to a relationship/sex counselor. Not so much to try an open her up sexually (although that could always be a pleasant side effect), but more to quell any resentment, or hurt feelings that have, or might develop.
Best wishes.

"Time, and time again. I have watched my fellow man stumble and fall. I fear these words will fail their ears, due to Man's incredible greed. Skipping off minds my words will go, off a group of silly men; it makes me sad to see what's in stored, for such a group, of stupid Men."
"Strictly, due to the domino effect; which occurs following the tragic demise of a loved one, can someone truly tell how much that loved one, was truly loved."
"Don't waste your time trying to please the world when that's something God himself can't even accomplish."
"so this is my life And i want you to know i'm both happy and sad , still trying to figure out how that could be"
"Born the day of full moons, they say the number seven is highly divine. Quadruple sevens must be, extremely unkind. I came to light on the seventh month, with a one holding a six; eighty-first year to be exact, with the eight hiding the one. Born the hour of chairs plus three guests, he did us a favor by leaving with his sad and cowardice ways; oh what man had I judged, to acquire such horrible ways?"

It's true that all of us here at HGTV and Design Happens have a certain degree of love for pretty interiors. Working with a group of super-creative people is so fun, because we're constantly inspired by each other's individual styles and tastes when it comes to decorating. We thought we would throw back the curtain and give you a little peek inside our homes to get a glimpse of how we HGTV-ify our spaces.
Here's the first round of show-and-tell. Our editors shared a photo of an object in our bedrooms that can tell you a lot about a person: our nightstands.
I'm prone to knocking things off my nightstand when I clumsily hit the snooze button each morning, so I keep it simple. I painted the small dish at a local pottery studio, and it's great for corralling lotions and other bedside essentials. I'm very sensitive to light while I'm sleeping, so I always keep the mask handy. I had it custom made by Rue Violet because most sleep masks are a tad snug for me (and because they come in such cute patterns).
Back in grade school, my parents bought me a bedroom suite. You know, the whole matching set – two dressers, nightstand, mirror, headboard. Well, I got half of the pieces up to my tiny loft and all of a sudden it looked like a furniture showroom. I immediately got out the chalk paint and went to town. My next little project: finding the perfect knobs.

A.H. Stephens Historic Park is a 1,177 acres (476 ha) Georgia state park located in Crawfordville. The park is named for Alexander Hamilton Stephens, the Vice President of the Confederate States of America, and a former Georgia governor. The park contains Stephens' home, Liberty Hall, which has been fully restored to its original 1875 style. The park's museum houses one of Georgia's largest collections of Civil War artifacts. The park also offers several mill ponds for fishing and nature trails.
The park is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as A. H. Stephens Memorial State Park. It includes four contributing sites, twelve contributing structures, and one other contributing object. It includes Colonial Revival and Rustic Style architecture.
Liberty Hall[edit]
The Liberty Hall, also known as Bachelor's Hall, built in 1834, is one of the structures on the site, and is separately listed on the NRHP.[1] It is currently a National Historic Landmark maintained by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. A.H. Stephens bought the estate in 1845, and lived in its house until 1875, when he tore down the main structure to build Liberty Hall. The two-story "big house" is a traditional 4 x 4 with four rooms on each level.
Many of Stephens' books are housed in a smaller structure behind, where he spent much of his time after the war. After Stephens's death in 1883, Liberty Hall, owned by his surviving relatives, served as a boardinghouse until 1932, when it was donated to the state of Georgia. The vice president's grave is on the front lawn, beneath a marble statue in his honor.

Nobody Needs to be afraid of the dark.Poor Griffin. Every night when he turns out the lights, his room turns as black as a starless sky. He tries to be brave, but his toes curl up and his hands grow cold and his heart beats fast and his legs turn to jelly. Can someone take away the shakes and the shivers and the quakes and the quivers? Is there anybody big enough to keep him safe?Tenderly written to help calm children's fears, this delightfully illustrated tale reassures children that they are not alone in feeling afraid of the dark and offers them this comforting promise: "God's perfect love takes away fear" (1 John 4:18).
In her best-selling series of Bad Girls of the Bible books, workbooks, and videos, Liz breathes new life into ancient tales about the most infamous—and intriguing—women in scriptural history, from Jezebel to Mary Magdalene. Biblically sound and cutting-edge fresh, these… More about Liz Curtis Higgs

Last month, a federal appellate court overturned a ruling that the National Day of Prayer was unconstitutional. The order was just in time. Today is the 2011 National Day of Prayer.
I'm not sure what makes this year different. CBS News seems to think it's that the event "spotlights prayer's healing power." But it doesn't sound that different from most years. USA Today reports:
Congress established the day in 1952, but the president by law must proclaim a day in May every year.
This year, President Obama called on Americans to "pray, or otherwise give thanks, in accordance with their own faiths and consciences, for our many freedoms and blessings."
"In prayer, we have expressed gratitude and humility, sought guidance and forgiveness, and received inspiration and assistance, both in good times and in bad," the proclamation said.
This is different than the National Prayer Breakfast, and observances manifest mainly in small gatherings around the country. In Washington, U.S. Rep. Pete Stark, Congress' first "out atheist," had his own response: declaring today a National Day of Reason.

Originally written on Pirates Prospects | Last updated 6/28/13
The Pirates will announce they have optioned Tony Sanchez to Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday. The catcher tweeted that he is returning to the minor leagues. From one 1st place team to another, back to work in Indy with even more motivation. #FirstPlaceEverything #BUCN — Tony Sanchez (@Tony26Montana) June 28, 2013 Tony Sanchez returns to the minors after two Major League games. (Image Credit: David Hague) Sanchez, 25, was called up one week ago to start as designated hitter for two games the Pirates were scheduled to play against left-handed pitchers, but Angels lefty Jason Vargas was placed on the disabled list with an injury. Sanchez started one game in Anaheim against right-hander Joe Blanton and one game against Seattle left-hander Joe Saunders, going 2-for-8 with a single and a double. The catcher returns to his productive Triple-A season, where his .951 OPS is 3rd among all International League players. Sanchez has earned praise for his offensive surge from the Pirates' general manager, who notes there is still progress for him to make defensively. "He's swung the bat very, very well," GM Neal Huntington said in his last media session. "Throwing, we've had some challenges. His errors are high because he's working through his throwing right now… Once he refines that, we've got a guy that can do some damage at the Major League level, and he's coming along really well." The Pirates have not yet made a corresponding move to the 25-man roster, though Josh Harrison (12th in International League OPS) should be considered a candidate for the team to promote and maintain 13 position players.
