Late Die State, O-104a
This example is visually and numerically superior to the Eliasberg coin that is considered the finest known. Incredible frosty luster and pristine surfaces are visible through the amazing deep green-gold toning on the obverse, and grayish-gold on the reverse. The strike is sensational with every individual design element boldly defined. Considered the new finest known, this piece is better than any others recorded. Stephen Herrman lists the Eliasberg MS66 coin, the MS65 that we handled in 2006, and a small number of MS64 grade pieces as the best to appear in recent sales. The present specimen is finer than all of those, and clearly the best in existence. Census: 2 in 67, 0 finer (3/09), for all 1818 varieties.

Sales Tax information | NGC Coin Grading Guarantee | Terms and Conditions
The Draped Bust Half Dollars of 1796-1797 by Jon Amato is the culmination of more than 10 years of research into the Draped Bust Small Eagle half dollar series, one of the most coveted type coins in American numismatics and one about which remarkably little has been written.
This work will be the premier reference for 1796-1797 half dollars for years to come. Institutions having an extensive numismatic library or coin cabinet will find it a valuable complement to their holdings, and catalogers charged with writing up specimens for auction can now have an indispensable source of background and pedigree information. Likewise, coin dealers seeking to purchase one or more '96 or '97 half dollars for a client or for inventory, and collectors who own, have owned, or desire to own one will want this important reference work for their libraries.

"Don't worry about that," Shigeru Miyamoto says.

The next Legend of Zelda game for Wii U is finally dropping the drawbridges and letting us loose upon Hyrule's vast majesty. Here's what we want to see when we ...

"The article in question is not based on correct information," company president Satoru Iwata says.
Eiji Aonuma takes issue with the "open world" description, but not for the reason you might think.

Ok, so a little about me.... I'm a thinker, I like to watch people, observe, if you will. I have my moments though when I blurt out random observations and thoughts, and be on the weird side. I'm a survivor, I can be quiet and a little shy, but that usually fades away fast. I'm a little bit of an artist when I want to be, I'm full of useless knowledge, I tend to go on about random things, ramble, and rant when I need to.I've been told I'm too nice for my own good sometimes.I'm usually down for anything. I'm stubborn, open,eccentric, impatient, indecisive, and annoyingly perfectionistic at times. I don't trust easily and with reason. I take pride in being very well mannered, I like expanding my mind; waste not, want not as the saying goes. Of course there is a lot more to me than a few paragraphs is able to get across to you. I have more layers, than you can imagine. (But that's usually true for most people. One can hope anyways.) I love and I hate, sometimes with equal fury toward the same target, and I can be quite difficult to read sometimes, but all you have to do is ask and I'll tell you exactly what's goin through my mind. I am always open to the idea of meeting new people and making new friends most of the time. I'm faithful, loyal, dependable, and trustworthy, and because of those traits and a couple people in my past who took advantage of them, Trust does not come easily with me. I don't like liars, cheaters, seducers, or back-stabbers. If you dislike me. . don't convince me otherwise. I'm not impressed by your great fashion sense or your obscure taste in music. I'm not impressed by the car you drive or who you're friends with..... none of that makes you who you are, it's all disposable in the end. But your open minded personality, does impress me. As does generosity, patience, and understanding. Your honesty in all things, your ambition for whatever you love doing. I seek truth, ambition, sincerity, loyalty, and happiness. I have a perfect 22 month old son, Bennett Henry. I have a 3 year old Min-Pin named Daisy, craziest dog I have ever owned, still trying to figure her out. I work for the Department of Defense as a Nuclear-Test Supervisor, we fix and maintain the Navy's west coast fleet.

There is nothing more basic to the DNA of IT than the drive for ever greater efficiency. Today, this is more commonly taking the form of reduced hardware requirements—with a corresponding decrease in energy consumption—through the growing trend towards virtualization.
The marriage of virtual machines, software as a service (SaaS), and cloud computing has allowed the organization to save significant amounts of hardware space, as it is now possible to run ever more powerful and space-hungry applications from virtual machines or remote third-party servers.
Advances in data protection and backup are allowing for a much more efficient backup process. Disk space requirements have been significantly reduced, while the need for tape backup systems has been eliminated altogether—a real savings in space, hardware, and energy requirements.
The process of protecting your your SQL server database has become simpler and more efficient as well. Software applications can now provide both local and remote database protection, allowing for quicker and more efficient data recovery in case of data loss or site failure.

Minnesota Twins Alexi Casillia celebrated with Joe Mauer who hit a three-run homer against the Los Angeles Angels in the third inning at the Metrodome in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Friday, July 31, 2009. (Bruce Bisping/Minneapolis Star Tribune/MCT) Photo via Newscom

Twins All-Star catcher Joe Mauer visited a concussion specialist at the Mayo Clinic and has been cleared to begin light exercises. Mauer was placed on baseball's seven-day concussion list earlier this week after he became dizzy during his pregame routine. The Twins sent him back to Minnesota from Detroit on Thursday to undergo further tests. Assistant general manager Rob Antony said Friday that Mauer was given the go-ahead to start exercising. Mauer is scheduled to be at Target Field on Saturday to work with one of the team's trainers. Antony said the former AL MVP will steadily increase his conditioning program as long as he feels up to it. Antony said the Twins don't know if Mauer will return when the 7-day concussion period expires. Mauer is hitting .324 with 11 homers and 47 RBIs.

Hello, everyone!
This week I received some exciting news - I was accepted into CU'S School of Education! So now I can take classes towards getting that licensure!
Last week was a bit of a blur, but in a good way. Copper Mountain had a foot of new snow when my friends and I went so we played around in 30 degree sunshine for the day - I still laugh whenever my friend says "most people are in class right now" because it's true, yet we are getting to spend time on the mountain. LOVE variable scheduling in college!
Last weekend, I went to Aspen with a giant group from The Annex ministry here in Boulder. We stayed overnight in Aspen High School's gym and skied during the day! I had never skied at Aspen before, but I was totally impressed! They had a foot of new snow in the past three days - the mogul runs did not even have packed moguls, you could completely shred through them! And for some reason, my friends and I were the only people on the runs we had found for most of the day - I promise I'm not complaining about that! They were by far some of the best skiing conditions I've ever experienced.
In my Acting for Nonmajors class this week, we were asked to prepare our monologues for coaching. This means we brought in the monologue we had been working on for a five minute one-on-one segment with our teacher. She helped me deicde more of the physical aspects of my monologue - where I should stand, look, move my arms, etc. I really enjoy the exercises we get to do in the class to express ourselves and find more of the actions that we are the best at! Someday I really might want to pursue a bit of acting outside of my usual Young Life skits on Wednesday nights.
This week I could wear shorts one day and be in snow up to my ankles the next! It's classic Colorado weather in February.
Last week was full of administrative fun - I signed a lease on my house for next year, facilitated a few group visits for high schools coming to see the CU campus, and started up the first session of my online course. But as always, I made time for fun along the way.
This week, school and meetings took priority and I didn't get to go skiing! Woe is me! I was especially bummed because some of the resorts an hour away got a foot of snow in 72 hours! Crazy awesome! But because I didn't get to ski, I had more time to get coffee with friends and get other work done early.
Hello, everyone! This last week felt sort of like break again - but I'm definitely not complaining!
Hi everyone! The Spring 2013 semester has started, and it is already packed as usual! I went on a mission trip to Belize over Winter Break, so I'm still adjusting to the cold weather and altitude here, not to mention different food and societal norms! Reverse culture shock is a great experience to be going through! I went with a group from one of the college ministries I attend, The Annex, of 24 of us, and now that we are all back in the US we have weekly gatherings so we don't lose touch with busy schedules!
They're here! Today marks the first day of Finals Fall 2012. I have a test tonight in Creative Technology at 7:30 PM... super late and weird to have on a Saturday night! But I am excited to get it over with because then I have only one more test before I am home for break.
This last weekend was one of the most fun ones yet! I think I had seven events total over Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night.

Appraiser and Estate Jewelry Recycler
About Scott Gordon Jeweler Gemologist
Our Service PledgeMy goal is complete disclosure about the quality and condition of the items I sell. I respond to all inquiries and orders within 24 hours. All sales to ultimate consumers of $500 or more are accompanied by thorough documentation for insurance coverage, which includes descriptions and photographs. Items are packaged safely and attractively. You will not find anyone who works harder to make the entire buying experience fun and educational!
About UsShowing out-of-the-ordinary antique, vintage, and more recent estate jewelry. Every item has been carefully selected for quality, condition and style to be among the best pre-owned jewelry found anywhere!
I am Oklahoma's leading gemologist/appraiser and estate jewelry broker. My grandfather founded a jewelry store in Oklahoma City in 1904, where I worked for 14 years before opening my own business here in 1991. I grew up in the jewelry business, with my father as my mentor.
My career purpose has been estate jewelry: helping people to buy, sell, repair, insure, and distribute it. I offer a consulting service that has served hundreds of owners (both private and institutional) to understand what they have, what their options are, and take the next step that is right for them. In many cases, I've acted as their agent for selling their items through my brokerage service, but only after presenting all their choices fairly and impartially.
My love of estate jewelry is for both the items themselves and the stories they tell. To hold these precious materials in our hands is awe-inspiring enough, and even more so when they are fashioned into beautiful objects. But even more, they are the greatest vessels of meaning that human beings have ever invented. To think of them going from miner to maker to seller to buyer and owner, through all the times they have moved and all the triumphs and struggles whose memories they hold; all of these make what I do a higher calling for me.
I love to think about what makes jewelry valuable, and how to explain it clearly and accurately in each piece. This has led me to earn the Accredited Senior Appraiser designation from the American Society of Appraisers, the nation's oldest and largest appraisal society. Last year I was elected chairman of ASA's Gems & Jewelry Discipline. In this role, and in my own business, I've had the experience of raising trust in the value of jewelry.
I hold two titles as a gemologist: Gemological Institute of America (Graduate Gemologist) and Fellow, Gemmological Association of Great Britain.
I invite you to share my love of estate jewelry!
- Thanks so much Scott! I got my ring today and my jaw dropped it is so beautiful! - Holly N., New York City
- I received the package as you promised. Thank you very much for everything! You've made my day today! I can't even explain in words how happy am I!!!! Beautiful, beautiful brooch! Your customer service is excellent! I will look forward to follow your offers. Thanks again for the professional way of service! - Lora Kochetkova, CA
- I just wanted to thank you again for keeping in touch throughout this whole process and really being a pleasure to work and communicate with. The ring is absolutely beautiful and even more stunning in real life. Thank you again so much and I cannot recommend you highly enough! - Danielle, Dallas

Works great for a little while and fails
By Ted the Biker
from Mechanicville,New York
Comments about RadioPlay 300:
My original one was a gift with my Ipod. Worked great for a couple of months than it didn't work one day.I always have it plugged into the power outlet and never move it,only to plug in my Ipod. I moved the wire around and it would work for a little while.I Located a bad part near adaptor. I took it apart and found wires had seperated. I remade connections and it worked great again. Couple months go by and it stopped working again. I brought another FM transmitter from another brand. I didn't like it....sounded horrible.I returned it and brought another RadioPlay 300...thinking maybe the other one was bad from the start and I should have returned it the first time it gave me problems. Well, a couple months go by and now this one has stero problems. I wiggle the wire for a while and it will work for a little while.This time I have tried several times on line-to have it replaced. I took it back to where purchased it and they told me Monster has a life-time warranty and should get a hold of Monster and see if they will replace it. Which I have done. Unfortunately, they don't have the time to respond to their e-mails. I wouldn't be making such a fuss over it but at the price they are selling these for they should have better customer service.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Merchant response: The RadioPlay 300 features a 1 year warranty. Additionally, we do not recommend disassembling the unit as that would void the warranty.

Great Product
By Cynthia
from Sacramento, CA
About Me Frequent Traveler, Student
I had this transmitter for I don't even remember how many years and it just started wearing down and I ended up pulling it apart because I'm usually hard on electronics. It was the first one I bought for my iPod. I recently got a smart phone that I want to use to double as a phone and MP3 player. I bought a transmitter from [@] which turned out to be a joke and another at [@]. I have to constantly change the stations and it's never as clear as it ever was with my Monster transmitter. I'm planning on returning both of the other transmitters and getting another Monster product. Maybe this is due to the audio setup in my Toyota Carolla from what I'm told, but either way, it lasted me a long time and I regret buying the others.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Horrible Product and Horrible Service
By anti-monster
from Columbus, OH
About Me Student
Comments about Monster RadioPlay 300:
I recieve this product as a gift about 4 years ago. So far, I've sent it back 3 times because the cord shorts out after a couple months every time. Now that I'm on my fourth replacement, Monster won't replace it because they tightened up their "policy" and I don't have my original receipt (which I haven't had for any of the previous replacement transactions.) Horrible product and customer service is a joke. Keep sending me faulty products and refuse to fix your own mistakes. Good marketing Monster! I'll be sure to let everyone know how poor your service/products are.

Works great! (when it works)
By The Infidel
from San Antonio, TX
The device works really well, but shortly after the warranty expired, the wire connection at the power plug became loose and it only powers up if you push the wire into the plug. It was not abused. The construction should have been a little more heavy duty...especially for the price.

Good Performer for me
By smithbul
from Mims, Florida
I've had mine for about 5 or 6 years and have been happy with it since day one. Only drawback has been the numbers aren't as bright as they used to be so is sometimes hard to see. Sound quality is great and is easy to use.

Vick's status uncertain because of concussion
PHILADELPHIA Michael Vick pointed to the scoreboard on his way to the locker room after suffering a concussion, reminding hecklers the Eagles were winning.
Without Vick, Philadelphia couldn't hold onto the lead and lost 35-31 to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday night. The Eagles (1-1) may again be without Vick for their home opener against the New York Giants.
Coach Andy Reid didn't rule out Vick's return this week, but head athletic trainer Rick Burkholder wouldn't give a time.
"That's foolish on our part medically to put time frame out there," Burkholder said Monday. "Everybody wants to know time frame, everybody wants to know whether Mike's going to play, everybody wants to know whether Mike's going to practice. We're going to go through our protocol and when Mike's ready to practice, I'm going to turn him over to Coach and he's going to make a decision whether he's ready to play, had reps, all that kind of stuff."
Vick was injured in the third quarter when he was spun around by a defender and slammed into right tackle Todd Herremans. His neck whipped back and he bit his tongue, which led to him spitting blood on his way off the field.
Vick wasn't woozy and seemed fully alert. He certainly was aware of the score - 31-21 in favor of the Eagles - when he pointed it out to fans in the Georgia Dome on his way in for tests. Vick barely failed those baseline tests, so the medical staff kept him on the sideline.
"He was just a little bit off, enough that we acted on the side of caution to hold him back as our standard protocol says," Burkholder said. "I was with him on the airplane. He was absolutely fine last night. As the days go on, we'll see, but last night he was pretty good. He told Coach he was fine, he told his teammates he was fine, he told me he was fine, and he was very far along last night."
Vick must pass several different tests and be evaluated by an independent neurologist before he can be cleared to return. The Pro Bowl quarterback had thrown for 242 yards and two touchdowns in his first game as a starter in Atlanta since going to prison and being released by the Falcons.
"There's a whole protocol to go through, and that's why we have it laid out so we're not guessing," Burkholder said. "That's why we have tests that we run, and all the protocol that we go through that we, the NFL and all the medical experts have put together, so there's a lot to do yet."
Reid sounded encouraged by a conversation he had with Vick after the game.
"He remembered everything," Reid said. "He recalled everything. I tried to quiz him and see where he was at. He was frustrated that he wasn't able to finish. He had a vested interest in finishing."
Reid wouldn't say whether Mike Kafka or Vince Young would start if Vick can't play against the Giants. Kafka, a fourth-round pick in 2010, played well in his NFL debut against the Falcons. He completed 7 of 9 passes for 72 yards and finished off the touchdown drive after Vick got hurt.

Tuesday Question ... April 26
NFL Draft - What To Look For
How desperate are teams going to be?
While there appears to be a little bit of headway on the labor/lockout front, for the most part, teams have to look to the draft to get better for the season that, yes, really will happen after all the silly people get their act together. While it's always right and fair to look at drafts a few years after the fact to see who was able to do what, that's not going to be the case this year just like it wasn't with last year's draft.
Of course, all the storylines are going to swirl around the high profile quarterbacks, but the bigger storyline will be how teams can and will improve themselves immediately with the right pick at the right time. Last year, Pittsburgh found its starting center for its great run to the Super Bowl by taking Maurkice Pouncey at the 18. The Packers didn't win the title because it drafted Brian Bulaga at the 23, but he played a role throughout the year.
Sam Bradford proved to be ready right away; Ndamukong Suh established himself as one of the best defensive tackles in the game; and Eric Berry has the look of one of the NFL's best young defensive backs. For every Ryan Mathews who did a fat load of jack squat there was a Dez Bryant and an Earl Thomas who stepped in and produced from Day One.
And now the pressure is on.
A.J. Green and Julio Jones are going to be disappointing if they don't become No. 1 targets from the moment they sign; Nick Fairley, Marcell Dareus and Corey Liuget are going to be asked to shine as instant starters in the middle of whatever defensive lines they end up working on; and Patrick Peterson is already being sent to Hawaii by almost all the scouts. Never has a draft been so full of so many ready-made starters, at least that's the belief, but for all the good turnkey players that'll be taken in the first round, the draft will be defined by the quarterbacks.
Yes, Cam Newton, Blaine Gabbert, and Jake Locker are all expected to need a little bit of time and seasoning, but they're going to have the pressure on, too, considering the success of Bradford last season and Tim Tebow over the last month.
Don't screw this up, NFL teams. There are players to be had to improve yourself right now.
By Richard Cirminiello
By Richard Cirminiello
The D-line is going to be divine.
More than anything else, I've been wowed by the depth and caliber of talent along the defensive line since this process began with the January all-star games. While you knew the ends and tackles were good, they've actually improved their stock over the last three months. And will prove that point on Thursday night. Beyond just Marcell Dareus, Nick Fairley, and Da'Quan Bowers, who'll be a gift to someone in the teens, it's been incredible how many linemen have distinguished themselves at the Combine and in private workouts. J.J. Watt, Corey Liuget, Muhammad Wilkerson, Cameron Jordan, Brooks Reed, and Phil Taylor, for instance, have all been rising since the bowl season concluded. In the end, don't be shocked if almost half of the 32 first round picks are defensive linemen.
I'm also looking for there to be brisker than normal trade activity. Yeah, yeah, it's impossible to predict these sorts of machinations as teams update their draft boards and jockey for position, but you get the feeling that the top dozen or so organizations aren't infatuated with this year's overall crop of available talent and will be willing to move back if there's a suitor. The draft is thin on can't-miss talent, especially at quarterback so if there's a chance to accumulate later picks, even if it means slashing prices, franchises might consider it.
And in case you're wondering, a decade from now, LSU CB Patrick Peterson will be considered the valedictorian of the Class of 2011. Defensive backs with his size, speed, and smarts don't come around too often. He's a bona fide gem, even if he has to wait a few picks before hearing his name called.
By Matt Zemek
The main intrigue of the NFL Draft, each and every season, is not found in the safe and sensible picks that organizations make to fill their needs. The real drama of draft day emerges when several clubs with needs in multiple areas choose to focus on a specific target rather than the best player on the board, thereby allowing a gifted athlete to slip through their fingers. Yes, the Indianapolis Colts needed the next Dwight Freeney in last year's draft, so they tabbed TCU's Jerry Hughes with their pick at No. 32. That made complete sense. It also doesn't make the NFL Draft interesting.
No, the entertainment value of this day is found when "the herd" ignores a gem and allows one team to steal a high-quality performer.
How did a receiver of Dez Bryant's quality slip to No. 24? (Well, we know the answer, but that doesn't make the decisions of teams 15-23 any more enlightened.) How did a playmaker of Dexter McCluster's caliber slip to No. 36, especially when one considers the extent to which Darren Sproles enhanced the San Diego Chargers over the past several seasons? How did Golden Tate fall to No. 60? How did a winner like Colt McCoy drop to 85? How did Jacoby Ford fall to 106? Clemson owns a losing subculture, but that reality has to be devalued when looking at Ford's overall skill set. The speed merchant couldn't crack the top 80 players in the league? It boggles the mind. Yes, plenty of teams had to fill needs, but several teams surely missed the chance to help themselves by grabbing top-shelf athletes. Of the players mentioned above, only Tate really failed to make an appreciable imprint in his first season, and of course, the Notre Dame product still has a lot of time to figure out the craft of being a professional receiver.
In 2011, which players will slip through the cracks and give a general manager a coup at an absurdly low spot on the draft board? Which players with evident skill will be pushed down the pecking order because of perceived character deficiencies? Which players who simply have winning in their competitive DNA, and who have enough athleticism to translate their intangible assets into results, will be ignored far too long? These are the kinds of queries that give draft day its flavor.

It neatly combines a gift for melodrama, a taste for dirty tricks, a powerful imagination and an important objective.
The tone veered wildly between camp, melodrama, realism, and messy amalgamations of the three.
By this time, many Desperate Housewives viewers had had enough of all the melodrama, but the show always did big well.
1784 (1782 as melo drame), "a stage-play in which songs were interspersed and music accompanied the action," from French mélodrame (18c.), from Greek melos "song" (see melody) + French drame "drama" (see drama). Meaning "a romantic and sensational dramatic piece with a happy ending" is from 1883, because this was often the form of the original melodramas. Also from French are Spanish melodrama, Italian melodramma, German melodram. Related: Melodramatize.
A play or film in which the plot is often sensational and the characters may display exaggerated emotion.

Port St. Lucie man treated for about 50 stings from possible 'Africanized' bees
PORT ST. LUCIE — St. Lucie County Fire District crews Thursday treated a man who reported being stung dozens of times by what he believes are Africanized honey bees, a Fire District spokeswoman said.
Crews were called at 2:23 p.m. Thursday to the incident in the 3300 block of Southeast South Lookout Boulevard, Fire District spokeswoman Catherine Chaney said.
"He was attacked while mowing the lawn," Chaney said of the man, who is in his late 40s.
Chaney said the man reported he sustained about 50 stings from Africanized honey bees.
Africanized bee stings are no more potent than those of long-established European honeybees, officials said. What differs is the larger number that erupt from a nest to attack and the greater distance the bees will pursue a perceived threat.
Chaney said the man was treated at the scene but not taken to the hospital.

Scrambler does it all
Yes I do Sand, If my 883 Sportster could do it, I know the Scrambler will too. Still have my camping trailer but now, I'll be towing a Hobie Mirage Outfitter kayak on a lightweight Trailex Aluminum trailer. Not far, mostly around Omaha to the various lakes with my daughter. Should be a blast. I used to Tow a Nacra 5.2 Catamaran sailboat with a VW Rabbit Cabriolet. Boat's a lot longer than the car. For added tongue weight I can bolt a rubbermaid medium size tub to it. Put supplies, life jackets, gear in it. Of course this is all theory for now. But with gas prices forcast to spike at $5.00 a gal, why buy a car when I can adapt my Scrambler to do my bidding. And lets be honest who doesnt love the looks of "Are you crazy???' from cagers. I have gotten those when i rode in a blizzard, or it was 10 degrees out, or when I carried my golf clubs on my bike to the course. Golfers heres a tip...Backpack carry bag, turn your irons upside down in the bag, and put on the rain cover. the weight distributes evenly across your shoulders when riding.

Letters to the Editor: 09.29.07
Light sentences
The Jennifer Cave trial revealed not only injustice for her senseless murder, but also how our legal system is failing to prosecute individuals effectively.
Both Colton Pitonyak and Laura Hall should have received harsher sentences for taking the life of an innocent person. The accomplice Laura Hall's sentence was only five years compared to Pitonyak's 55-year prison sentence. Pitonyak's and Hall's actions should have received at least the maximum life sentence or the death penalty.
These two individuals fled to Mexico having the common knowledge of what the consequence of their actions would get them if they were discovered. Considering the fact they fled from officials, their prison sentences were merely a slap on the wrist. Pitonyak and Hall will serve their prison sentences and resume with regular life, but unfortunately they didn't give Jennifer Cave the option of living.

Unclear purpose
Freedom, according to Wikipedia, "is the right or the capacity of self-determination as an expression of the individual will." To me, freedom is much more.
Freedom is what soldiers protect every day for me. Freedom is the loyalty individuals possess when they fight or defend our country. Freedom in our country was taken for granted on Sept. 11, 2001, and now our loved ones are fighting to secure our nation's freedom.
Soldiers defend our country risk their lives to protect our freedoms, and more soldiers are being sent overseas to fight and protect. But what is our country really fighting for now?
The country first went to war when terrorists crashed planes into the Twin Towers, but now soldiers are in Iraq fighting because our country took out their country's leadership. Why is it necessary for our soldiers to risk their lives for a cause that is no longer necessary?
Our country's leaders need to evaluate why we are still at war. I support our soldiers. I just don't understand the purpose of this war any more.

Uneasy riders
The many bikers who followed the late Danny Kloster, who was killed in a bicycle-automobile accident this summer, give testament to the growth of bicycling as a pastime in South Texas.
If bicycling is to flourish as it has in much of the sporting world as a pastime for all ages, then we must allow bikers safety and room to ride. In the letter of Aug. 1, Dr. and Mrs. Victor Firmani expressed the need for bicycle pathways in Corpus Christi so the sport might rise to the level of "safe, family fun."
This is a very timely and overdue proposal. It is, after all, for safety that the city has built our skateboarding park by the water. Should we not, also for safety, invest in bicycling that would draw not only local families, but also tourists? Oftentimes, neighborhood and suburban sidewalks are obstructed by brush and thistle or segmented by vehicles sticking out. Now, with so much development stirring in Corpus Christi, it is as good a time as ever to give the sport of bicycling its own rhythm.

Support Prop 15
Cancer affects everyone. Each of us knows someone who has been diagnosed with cancer or who died from the disease. In fact, more than 37,000 Texans die of cancer each year.
We must take steps to prevent cancer. We can. On Nov. 6, Texas citizens can vote for Proposition 15, which would authorize Texas to issue $3 billion in bonds over 10 years to pay for research on ways to prevent cancer and find a cure for the disease. Of that money, $300 million would be spent on preventing cancer.
As a physician who specialized in ophthalmology, I see firsthand the heartache cancer brings to many families. Nothing is more painful than to look into the eyes of a patient and deliver the horrible news that he or she or their loved one has cancer. The only way we can stop cancer is to invest in medical research and the discoveries that research yields. We must support Proposition 15. It benefits everyone.
John "Jack" t. Dugan II
(President, Nueces County Medical Society)
The power of you
You can make a difference regardless of your age. The needs of the world are great. We face AIDS, cancer, war, violence, and poverty.
Yet, the majority of people fail to get involved in things such as mentoring, fundraisers, or charities. We leave it to a small minority to lead the way.
We freely complain about these world problems, but fail to take part in finding the solution. It is much easier to blame someone else instead of getting involved and doing something about it yourself.
If teenagers would give up just two hours of watching television or chatting on the computer for volunteering, it would make a great difference in society. Even the simplest acts such as picking up an empty bottle on the sidewalk or participating in a cancer walk can help. If a large amount of individuals gave just a few hours each week, the combined effort would have a tremendous impact on solving many of these social issues.
It begins with you, so please consider volunteering.

Smart idea
Victor Hugo wrote at the time of the French Revolution that "There is nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come." Smart Growth for Corpus Christi is an idea whose time has come. My thanks to Mayor Henry Garrett and the City Council for their willingness to pursue Smart Growth.
It is obvious that developers and builders have had a sweetheart deal with the City Council long enough. If they want to develop and build beyond the city limits, let them develop the Municipal Utility Districts on their own. And let those who want the new homes pay the taxes that the MUDs create. They can also provide for their own security and fire protection, along with the maintenance of streets and other public areas.
I am delighted to see our mayor and City Council become pro-active in the preservation and improvement of our city. I am also encouraged to see that they don't want to be complicit in the erosion and abandonment of the Corpus Christi Independent School District.
Let's deal with the city we have first. Then we can deal with the city that emerges in the smart growth of the future.

Too much homework
I believe homework should not be given out to students during the week.
Five days a week children spend about eight hours a day in school learning and doing work. When homework is given to students, it takes time away from family life, relaxation, and leisure time. Every night of the week after practice, the only activity that I am doing is homework until I go to bed. At most, I visit with my family for about 20 to 30 minutes at night and after that I'm stuck doing my homework until I eventually fall asleep while doing homework.
I wake up very drowsy and throughout the day at school I tend to not focus. My mind is overworked to exhaustion due to homework.
To resolve this problem a law should be implemented that all schools in the United States should allow teachers to give out homework only on weekends. Good grades and having an alert, sharp mind can be gained by students if this idea became law.

What to Read Next
From Susan Vreeland, bestselling author of such acclaimed novels as Girl in Hyacinth Blue, Luncheon of the Boating Party, and Clara and Mr. Tiffany, comes a richly imagined story of a woman's awakening in the south of Vichy France—to the power of art, to the beauty of provincial life, and to love in the midst of war.
1. Why did the novel need to begin with Lisette meeting Pascal? How was he an important presence throughout the novel and an influence on Lisette's deepening character?
2. What were the differences in the qualities that Lisette appreciated about André and Maxime? Did these differences affect her love for both of them? How?
3. As Lisette becomes more comfortable in Roussillon, what does she find in it that she likes, or even loves? As a reader, did you want her to make this adjustment, or were you holding out for a complete and speedy return to Paris? If she had moved back to Paris right after the end of the war, what would she have lost in addition to the paintings?
4. Why is Lisette so conflicted about Bernard? What allows her even to speak to him? Since every gift he gives her has consequences, should she have rejected and destroyed each one as she does the stockings? What did you think of Bernard? Did you sympathize with him?
5. Should Bernard have been punished for his actions during the war and removed from his post? In your opinion, did his motives in siding with the Occupiers justify his stance? At one point Lisette says, "I could charge you not just as a thief but as a collaborator." Why doesn't she? Do you consider André's mother, Héloïse, to be a collaborator? Why or why not?
6. In Chapter 23, Maxime speaks at length about what makes a painting great. Do you agree with his assessment? Is there any criterion that he overlooks? Select a painting you love by any painter and apply Maxime's criteria to it. What insightful observation about life or the world or yourself does the painting offer you?
7. How do the peripheral characters—Maurice, Sister Marie Pierre, Héloïse, Louise, Odette, Madame Bonnelly, Aimé Bonhomme—complement one another in influencing Lisette?
8. The letter by Marc Chagall to the artists of Paris is historically accurate except that it mentions the cause of Bella's death. What effect does this letter have on Lisette, not just in terms of her emotional reaction but also on her subsequent thinking and -actions?
9. In what way does Lisette's List of Hungers and Vows differ from the popularized "bucket list" of contemporary usage? What is its purpose for her? Why wasn't "Participate in the art world in Paris" on her list?
10. In Chapter 16, Lisette considers whether it might be a higher art to invent a painting by assembling elements from one's heart, as Chagall did, rather than by painting only what one actually sees. She imagines such a painting of her own. What elements of her own life are reflected in her painting? What elements in your life might be reflected in such a painting if you were to paint your own Chagall?
11. What are the biggest lessons Lisette learns throughout the course of the novel? Do they concern art or life? Does learning about art teach Lisette to live a fuller life? Or does living a fuller life teach her to better understand and appreciate art?
Nancy Thayer whisks readers back to Nantucket in a delightful novel about two single parents who accidentally rent the same summer house—and must soon decide where their hearts truly lie.
Sensible thirty-six-year-old Sophie Anderson knows her role in life: supportive wife of a successful architect and calm, capable mother of two. But on a warm summer night, as the house grows quiet around her and her children fall asleep, she wonders what's missing from her life. After her husband leaves her, she impulsively rents a guest cottage on Nantucket and leaves Boston for a family vacation, minus one.
Also minus one is Trevor Black, a software entrepreneur who has recently lost his wife. Trevor did not imagine himself raising a little boy like Leo—smart and sweet, but grappling constantly with his mother's death–on his own. Hoping a quiet summer on the Nantucket coast will help him reconnect with Leo, Trevor rents a guest house on the beautiful island from his friend Ivan Swenson.
Best-laid plans run awry when Sophie and Trevor realize they've mistakenly rented the same house. Still, determined to make this a summer their kids will always remember, the two agree to share the Swensons' Nantucket house. But as the summer unfolds and the families grow close, Sophie and Trevor must ask themselves if the guest cottage is all they want to share.
Discussion Questions for The Guest House by Nancy Thayer
1. On page 80, Sophie thinks to herself, "When one door closes in your life, another door opens. But what if the entire house comes down?" For Sophie and Trevor, a summer in Nantucket holds so much more than fun in the sun. They resolve unfinished business, get to spend time with their kids, and even learn to love again. Do you think any of this would have happened if they hadn't had to share the guest cottage?
2. Living under the same roof, Sophie and Trevor are forced to compromise. Do you think they're the better for it? Have you ever thought of a compromise you've had to make as an opportunity to grow?
3. Compare Trevor and Sophie's parenting styles. What do you think each of their approaches say about them? What do they do differently? Do you think they learn anything from each other?
4. At Sophie's dinner party in chapter 19, Connor tells the story of Wooly Bully, a stubborn bull that his wife succeeded in taming on their farm. Why do you think he tells this story to the Andersons and the Blacks?
5. On page 238, Trevor muses that perhaps the traditional family "never existed except on Christmas cards." Do you agree with Trevor?
6. Similarly, in chapter 32 Trevor's son Leo asks Sophie, "Are you my family?" How do you define family? How do you think it is defined in The Guest Cottage?
7. Sophie admits that she never loved Zack as much as she loved music, and Trevor acknowledges that he was drawn to Tallulah for superficial reasons. Do you think their reasons for marrying the first time were similar or different?
8. On page 204, Trevor observes that sometimes "people marry the wrong people to get the right children." What do you think about that statement?
9. When Sophie sees the piano in the music room, her dreams of becoming a concert pianist come flooding back to her. Although music has always been her first love, she hasn't played a note since she froze on stage as a teenager. Why do you think Sophie froze? What do you think enables her to play again?
10. Have you ever rediscovered something you were passionate about? What made you revisit it?
11. Throughout The Guest Cottage, Leo struggles to play the song his mother used to sing to him on the piano. Why do you think Sophie is the one who recognizes the song he is attempting to play?
12. Sophie rents the guest cottage with help from the inheritance left to her by her unsinkable Aunt Fancy. Aunt Fancy was a woman of many mottos. "If I've gotta go down, I'm gonna go down in style," Sophie remembers her saying. Even in memory, she inspires Sophie to love life and take chances. Does Aunt Fancy remind you of anyone who tells you, in one way or another, "If the horse throws you, climb right back on"?
Friendship takes center stage in New York Times bestselling author Nancy Thayer's captivating, emotionally charged novel featuring all the tenderness and wit, drama and romance that readers have come to expect from this insightful, much-loved writer.
1. Maggie and Emily come from two different worlds—-while Maggie's family lives on Nantucket year round, Emily is whisked off to a very different island, New York City, at the first sign of the summer's end each year. Although the two girls build a world of their own each summer as "Nantucket sisters," eventually the outside world lets itself in. Do you think Maggie and Emily are their best selves together? Have you ever had a friendship with someone from a different background? Did it make you see the world differently?
2. Emily and Maggie spend golden summers together building castles in the sand, creating magical worlds of their own, and forging grand plans for their future. What other relationships in Nantucket Sisters take place far from the eyes of the outside world? Why do you think they do?
3. Do you find yourself identifying more with Maggie or Emily? Why?
4. Emily's mother, Cara, always disapproved of Emily's summer friendship with Maggie and Ben, whose mother is a local seamstress. She encourages Emily to take sailing lessons and attend fundraisers where she will associate with "summer people" instead. How do you think the environments we grow up in and parental expectations affect us later in life?
5. Emily is passionate about the environment, especially that of Nantucket, and environmental preservation is about keeping the past and the future alive in Nantucket Sisters. Why do you think Emily lets her passion for the island fade? Does it correspond with emotional changes in her life?
6. Similarly, we find out in chapter 22 that against his family's wishes Ben plans to build on the land his stepfather, Thaddeus, left him. What motivates his decision? Do you think he's trying to block out his memories of Emily or be what she wanted him to be?
7. In chapter 10, Ben and Emily fight over expectations for their engagement. On the surface, the fight is about money, a source of tension that affects many relationships in Nantucket Sisters. Ben and Emily have gotten past this issue before—-what do you think is really at stake?
8. Maggie and Emily approach their pregnancies very differently—do you think the choices they make about raising their children reflect their personalities? What do you think you would do in either of their places?
9. Maggie's grandmother Clarice has a motto, "You can't keep a good woman down." Clarice seems to grow more and more resilient as she ages, remaining a lively, supportive presence in Maggie's life. Does she remind you of anyone you know?
10. Tyler comes back into Maggie's life unexpectedly. Have you reconnected with a friend or a crush, years later? Did it surprise you?
11. As girls, Maggie and Emily work on a novel together, Siren Song, and Maggie grows up to be a writer, working on her novel on cozy winter evenings. What roles do you thinking writing and storytelling play in Nantucket Sisters?
12. Nantucket Sisters begins and ends with "a morning in heaven" on the beach. Is there a place that has always been special to you? Why is it meaningful to you?
With depth, heart, and agility, debut novelist Mira Jacob takes us on a deftly plotted journey that ranges from 1970s India to suburban 1980s New Mexico to Seattle during the dot.com boom. The Sleepwalker's Guide to Dancing is an epic, irreverent testimony to the bonds of love, the pull of hope, and the power of making peace with life's uncertainties.
Celebrated brain surgeon Thomas Eapen has been sitting on his porch, talking to dead relatives. At least that is the story his wife, Kamala, prone to exaggeration, tells their daughter, Amina, a photographer living in Seattle.
Reluctantly Amina returns home and finds a situation that is far more complicated than her mother let on, with roots in a trip the family, including Amina's rebellious brother Akhil, took to India twenty years earlier. Confronted by Thomas's unwillingness to explain himself, strange looks from the hospital staff, and a series of puzzling items buried in her mother's garden, Amina soon realizes that the only way she can help her father is by coming to terms with her family's painful past. In doing so, she must reckon with the ghosts that haunt all of the Eapens.
Joanna Rackoff: This novel, I know, was a decade in the works. What was it like to work on a project of this scope? Did you ever despair of finishing it? Or was it more the opposite, that working on it sustained you?
Mira Jacob: Oh, those questions really get to everything all at once. Let me answer the easier question first. Yes, I did despair of finishing it at several points. I worked a series of corporate jobs while getting this book done, and most of the time I wrote from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m., when my young son (and the rest of the world) was asleep. I'm pretty up front about the fact that this book took me ten years to write, because I think there are a lot of people like me—-people with dreams bigger than their day jobs—-and I want them to know they are not crazy for keeping at it.
As for the scope and the scale—-the spooky truth is that when I started the novel, I thought I would be writing a purely fictional book about a father receding from the world. I imagined him -having -Alzheimer's, or maybe just some kind of nonspecific dementia. I had a great father character in the original draft, and I was putting him through those paces when my real–life father was diagnosed with cancer. You know what isn't the easiest thing in the world? Writing a father character into demise while your own father is growing weaker every day. So I put the book away for three years, and in those years I watched my father die slowly and painfully, and, well, it took a toll. Just how much of a toll it took became evident a year after he died, when I tried to go back to the book I had been writing, and instead of writing the father as a character, I kept writing my father—-his mannerisms, his way of moving through the world. At first I tried to resist it, but then I just gave in, and it was cathartic. I realized much later that it was my way of getting to say goodbye on my own terms.
JR: Most annoying question ever: You mention, in the acknowledgments, that you hope no one will mistake your mother and brother for Kamala and Akhil. Does the novel draw from your own cultural, geographical, or familial background? Is the world of the novel the world from which you come?
MJ: The world of the novel is absolutely where I come from: Syrian Christian South Indian living in the American Southwest, to be specific. Given that, and the fact that I put my actual father in the book, I felt like I needed that disclaimer in there, especially for my mother, who was a very cool force of culture and feminism and political thought in my life—-quite the opposite of Kamala. And my brother, while heavily into metal, never had the identity problems Akhil had.
JR: The story arc of the novel is somewhat unusual. What novels, or other works, influenced you in its development?
MJ: I like a novel with an emotional mystery at its center. To that extent, books like Kate Atkinson's Behind the Scenes at the Museum and Junot Díaz's The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao were great guides. But as far as the structure goes—-the unwinding of parallel story lines—-that was something I stumbled into when initial drafts weren't going over well. In short, I was told to remove the entire high school section of the book because it came as one big, long chunk in the middle of the narrative and slowed down the pace. I talked to my husband, who is a filmmaker, and he told me about storyboarding, which is something I had never tried before. I sat down one day with a bunch of colored Post–its and the tandem story lines became beautifully clear.
JR: This is obviously a story about first–generation Americans, their struggles and conflicts. Do you see this as a universal story or a specifically Indian one?
MJ: It's funny, because I know that reviewers have latched on to this as an immigrant story—-which it is, of course—-but in my mind, it's mostly a people–dealing–with–loss story. That was at the heart of this for me: how to move forward in a world that keeps erasing itself behind you, how to find your footing in a slippery future when you haven't made peace with your past. It's also about relationships in families, those very specific dynamics that happen between people you can never get away from. And the reaction from readers has been surprisingly gratifying in this respect—-the number of nonimmigrants who have reached out to say, "You told the story of my family," has been stunning.
JR: The novel, of course, is very much about sleep, and tries to get at the complex dynamic between our sleeping and waking lives. One character sleepwalks and, in doing so, finds the courage to do all he can't in his waking life. Another, similarly, falls asleep when tensions rise. How did you become interested in sleep? How does sleep function in the novel?
MJ: Sleep is a human universal, something we all have to do to function no matter where we are located or what else is going on in our lives. In its best moments, it's restorative, regenerative, and in its worst, it becomes a subconscious reckoning. All of the Eapens on either side of the globe spend their days contorting around their realities—-whether that's being stuck in a life they can't stand or a country that won't see them—so it made sense to me that at night, when their guards are down, sleep would wreak havoc on their lives.
JR: This is also very much a novel about the complex emotional web between parent and child. You became a parent while working on the novel. Did this affect your depictions of the parents and children in the novel?
MJ: Both my father's death and my son's subsequent birth had enormous ramifications on my perspective while writing the novel. It's a little simplistic to say one devastated me and the other rebuilt me; the truth would be closer to saying that both of them were deeply untethering and also very bracing. They put me in my current bones. So, yes, it very much affected the novel, adding new layers of perspective, disappointment, fury, and forgiveness. You know, life.
Perfect for fans of Philippa Gregory and Alison Weir, The Virgin's Daughter is the first book in a captivating new saga about the next generation of Tudor royals, which poses the thrilling question: What if Elizabeth I, the celebrated Virgin Queen, gave birth to a legitimate heir?
1. Discuss Elizabeth's marriage to King Philip. Can you envision any scenario in which their marriage might have survived? Or were their religious differences and political responsibilities insurmountable?
2. What do you think motivated Elizabeth's revelation about her suspicions regarding Lucette's true parentage? Was her choice political or personal? How might she have handled the situation differently? Discuss the long–term impact of her decision on Lucette and the Courtenay family.
3. Which character surprised you the most? Why?
4. In what ways are Anne Isabella and Elizabeth similar? In what ways are they different? Compare and contrast the two, both as women and as leaders.
5. Discuss the relationship between Minuette and Elizabeth. In what ways has it evolved, and in what ways has it remained the same?
6. Elizabeth plays many roles—-that of wife, friend, mother, and queen most notably. Discuss these different facets of her personality. Do you see a difference in her behavior in each of these contexts, or does the monarch necessarily overshadow the other roles?
7. At one point, Lucette asks, "Should not love between spouses be absolute? How could one ever love a second person as much as the first?" Do you agree with this sentiment? Is it possible to feel romantic love for more than one person in a lifetime?
8. Renaud tells Lucette: "You are so afraid of not being wanted, you will not put it to the test, and thus create the very distance you fear." Do you agree with his assessment of Lucette? Can you think of anyone else in the book to whom this sentiment applies?
9. Discuss Julien's motives for becoming an English spy, taking into account the events of 1572. Do you find his reasons compelling?
10. Before leaving England, Philip says to Elizabeth, "I indulged myself in a dream these twenty years because I loved you and because I hoped persuasion would be of greater influence than force." What do you think his dream was? How could Elizabeth have handled the situation with Spain differently? At this point, do you think there was anything she could have done to dissuade Philip from carrying out his plan?
11. Compare and contrast Nicolas and Julien. In what ways are they similar? In what ways are they different? Did you sympathize with Nicolas at all by the end?
12. If you read The Boleyn King Trilogy, compare and contrast the relationships between Kit, Anabel, Pippa, and Lucette to those between the previous generation: Elizabeth, William, Dominic, and Minuette.
13. What did you think of the revelation at the end of the book? Any predictions for the sequel?

Now Reading
Clay Pigeon Shooting over the christmas break. I was rubbish but shot some pretty good slow-mo footage on the iphone.
Image from the 12 week scan.
A year or so ago I backed the Elite : Dangerous project on kickstarter. I had not paid much attention during development until I noticed it had a release date. I started to watch some videos on the beta and some streams on twitch.tv. One thing that became instantly apparent was that in the majority of videos pilots were using head tracking. To me this seemed a bit like a gimmick but I did a little research into it and all reports said it made the game more immersive. Having just purchased a joystick to improve the game I thought I might as well have a go at this too. I did not want to spend a great deal of cash on a solution and I did not want to look foolish (so webcams and IR headsets were out).
I decided on the edTracker because it was cheap and required me to build it, this meant I could make it into a weekend project. Also all the software is open source so fingers crossed I can have a play next year (osx client?).
I purchased the following parts.
I was going to take some pictures during the projects to help people on the way but the documentation and video's on the edTracker website are fantastic so there was no point in the end. Building the edTracker was a breeze made really simple and tidy with the PCB, I would highly recommend buying it. The edTracker 2 software is really simple to use. This is the first electronics project I have attempted that ran without any issues (mainly due to the fantastic documentation). I made a little mess of the USB hole and in the future I may buy a new project box and tidy it up but it's not the end of the world.
Here are a few pointers that may help anyone out doing this project.
To tidy the my little project I put some braided sleeving over my two usb cables and used some red cable ties to make sure nothing was going to move.
Here are some photos of the final product.

Why Aregbesola provided 20,000 jobs in 100 days, by deputy governor
Osun State Deputy Governor Grace Titi Laoye-Tomori yesterday explained why Governor Rauf Aregbesola provided jobs for 20,000 youths within the administration's 100 days in office.
Describing Aregbesola as a father to Nigerian youths, the deputy governor noted that since assumption of office, the governor has shown a passion for the development of the youths in all areas of life.
She delivered a goodwill message in Osogbo, the state capital, during the Easter Carnival organised by the governor's wife, Alhaja Sherifat Aregbesola, in collaboration with the ministries of Women Affairs and Social Welfare and Youth, Sports and Special Needs.
According to her, the Aregbesola administration knows the importance of the youths in nation-building and that the government was the first in Nigeria to employ 20,000 youths within 100 days in office.
She said the employed youths have been working in the teaching service, Highway Guard, OYES-TECH, environmental sanitation and other professional assignments.
The deputy governor noted that the Aregbesola administration is committed to the yearnings and aspirations of the youths for transformation and advancement.
Mrs Laoye-Tomori, who noted that the future of the state rests upon the youths, urged the residents to support the government's regional integration agenda. She said this would extend the good virtues of the state to other states in the Southwest.
Mrs Aregbesola, who was represented by the Commissioner for Women's Affairs and Social Affairs, Mrs. Mofolake Adegboyega, urged the youths to live in peace.
She said the Aregbesola administration has provided an environment devoid of contamination and exploitation for aspiring residents, particularly the youths.
The governor's wife said the youths constitute a prime factor in the sustainable nation-building and its development as well as the leaders of tomorrow in all facets of life.
Mrs Aregbesola said: "I consider today's event as an important occasion and a step in the right direction, because it is an occasion that has to do with the future of this nation. It is an event that concerns the participation of the youths to development, as youths of different socio-economic backgrounds would interact with one another. We want to let the youths know that we have social interest in their development and they will also dine and wine with Her Excellency and other dignitaries in the state.
"Apart from bringing our youths together in the festive mood of the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, it would also afford them the opportunity of positioning themselves to examine the salient issues pertaining to their rights as well as the observation of their rights by the adult society."

RU the Cinderella I am seeking? Will the glass slipper fit? A Down to Earth Prince awaits ur reply to treat u like a Princess!
Looking for that Special Person that is Fun and Loves to Laugh....and Enjoys Life.. I enjoy being Outdoors, the Beach, Mountains, and Sporting Events.. Quiet Nights at Home or Going Out for Dinner and Catching a Good Movie. Much Better with the Right Person though... If you are Looking for a Sweet,Charming, Down to Earth, Honest, Caring, Fun Loving Gent, than You Have found the Right person... Very Stable Financially and Emotionally. My Ideal Match is Someone that is Fun Loving, Attractive, and can be Themselves, whether it`s Jeans or Dressed up for the Occasion. Likes the Outdoors, Beach, Mountains, Swap Meets, Sporting Events, Concerts, and Loves to Laugh.... Likes to go out on the town, or Enjoy a Nice Quiet Evening at Home with a Warm Fire, Good Music or a Good Movie, and Cuddling with Sweet Kisses in Between.... Someone who Likes to be Treated Well and Responds to that in the same way.. I also like to cook and doing that together can be Fun , Loving , Sexy and Romantic. Could definitely change our opinion about countertops, lol. A Great Catch Looking for another Great Catch! Just that One Special Person..Is that You ??? I love to show affection in public to the woman I so deeply care about and have no problem in receiving that as well. I believe there is nothing wrong with that as I see people who get turned off by that and think that`s a shame. Why not show everyone that you love that person you are with....I believe that sometimes it makes couples jealous as that is what they so wish that their relationship would be like. Candlelight with a good bottle of wine, and a delicious meal shared together is always a plus, as well as just taking a stroll hand in hand down the beach while watching the sunset is wonderful. How about me pushing you around on a float in Palm Desert, Vegas, or any pool while laughing, staying cool with a few drinks, and just relaxing after a long work week. Thats what weekend getaways are for and always something to so look forward to! Guess I am just a hopeless romantic looking for the same. That quick txt msg or quick phone call just to let the person you care about know that you are thinking about them and that you cannot wait to see them! Always fun to do that throughout the day, and dropping little hints about seeing each other later, and what you would like to do with each other. Mental Foreplay is fun and nothing wrong with that......as that is why cell phones are so much at our use. Camera phones are so much fun just to send each other pics and make the day exciting and different as it takes away from the same old job day in and day out! I do like to go shopping.....as it is cool when you are having fun together and yes.....maybe going to the Angel game with me later or maybe catching some Sunday afternoon football at a local sports bar with great atmosphere, good food, great company being you, and enjoying some good drinks. Surprising your mate is always fun as they say that its the small things that count the most. Surprising you by washing your car, making your favorite meal, playing your favorite music, giving you a foot massage everyday, bringing you flowers just to say "I Love You," remembering all important dates and doing something special to let your mate know that you are thinking about them and that they are always on your mind. My name is Paul and looking forward to hearing from you!
