Another Roadside Attraction (Roanoke, VA) aka "Roadside"
Genre: Eclectic, Blue Ridge Cabaret / New Vaudeville, Carnivale, River Boat Steam
"Another RoadSide Attraction hails from Roanoke, Virginia, but they could have just as easily stepped out of Coney Island in the mid-1950s, or a forgotten diner along Route 66, or any number of dusty midwestern traveling carnivals. They evoke boardwalks, midways, sideshows, World Fairs, and all the best elements of true Americana. It is scientifically impossible to go wrong with any band that features both a kazoo AND a ukulele, and if you're able to watch them without cracking a smile and tapping a toe, then you should probably consider checking your pulse. "
— Ben R. Williams, Director of Guerrilla Programming at Studio Roanoke , Studio Roanoke
"They (Another RoadSide Attraction) have created a family and have built their lives around that which they love to do. When I go over to one of their houses they always seem to be practicing, writing, making costumes, gear, instruments or manufacturing their own merchandise. A lot of people talk about passion and devotion to craft, but I have never seen this level of commitment. This is a band of true believers. I have seen them at work. They know how to get things done and they know how to have fun doing it. Without these two qualities any band is doomed....You have to love their aesthetic. I like to call it Steinbeck/Through the Looking Glass. These guys don't put on costumes to perform. They go to bed in them, they wake up in them, they go to Grandma's house in their costumes."
- Geoff Conley, Lucid Press
"ANOTHER ROADSIDE ATTRACTION('s) signature sound is equal parts gypsy jazz, vaudeville, circus funhouse, and riverboat steam, rattled around in a boxcar for a couple thousand miles, served with sangria and sausages."

Right from the start, Swatch has been connected with contemporary art. Like the pop art of the modern times, Swatch watches were inspired by popular culture, and Swatch itself soon became a canvas for world famous artists, musicians and fashion designers.
In 1984, the famous French artist Christian Chapiron (known as "Kiki Picasso") was asked to design the first-ever "Swatch Art Special". He elaborated a project in which every one of the 140 pieces of the limited edition was unique.
One of the first major artists to collaborate with Swatch was the American painter Keith Haring, whose Swatch Gents, "Modèle avec personnages", "Mille Pattes", "Serpent" and "Blanc sur Noir" are now collectors' items.
The ongoing relationship between Swatch and art has generated a fascinating series of Swatch Art Specials designed by artists from a broad range of disciplines – painters, filmmakers, fashion designers, videographers, photographers, conceptual artists...
Some of the more well known include Andrew Logan (1985), Jean-Michel Folon (1987), Tadanori Yokoo (1987), Valerio Adami (1988), Pol Bury (1988), Pierre Alechinsky (1988), Mimmo Paladino (1989), Alessandro Mendini (1990), Chérif & Silvie Defraoui, Niklaus Troxler, Not Vital and Felice Varini (1991 or the set "700 Years Confederatio Helvetica 1991"), Alfred Hofkunst (1991, the amazing "Swatchtables"), Massimo Giacon (1991), Matteo Thun (1991), Igort (1992), Sam Francis (1992), Vivienne Westwood (1992 and 1993), Jean-Charles de Castelbajac (1993), Mark Kostabi (1994), Kenny Scharf (1994), Mimmo Rotella (1994), Kenny Scharf (1994), Akira Kurosawa, Pedro Almodóvar and Robert Altman (1995 for the set "100 Years Cinema"), Nam June Paik (1995), Corneille (1995), Bengt Lindström (1995), Bridget Mutji (1996), Yue Min Jun (1996), Arnaldo Pomodoro (1996), Renzo Piano (2000), Pierre et Gilles (2000), David La Chapelle (2000), MoUvEmEnT Dada (2003–2004), Blue Man Group (2006), Norma Jeane (2008for the "once Again, Again" the Club Watch for members of the worldwide community of Swatch fans, friends and collectors known as Swatch The Club), Billy The Artist (2009), Ted Scapa (2009), Grems (2009),Matthew Langille (2009), Ivan Navarro (2010), Cassette Playa (2010) and Jeremy Scott (2011).
For more information on these and other artists and their work for Swatch, see the Swatch & Art collection or the Swatch Finder on swatch.com.
The Swatch Art Peace Hotel is the brand's latest commitment to art and continues this tradition by bringing artists to one of China's most luxurious places, the Bund in Shanghai. Because the real luxury in life is: art.

SACRAMENTO — The National Park Service purposely destroyed evidence in the wrongful death case of a 9-year-old boy who was crushed by a retaining wall in a Northern California park, a federal magistrate judge said.
Magistrate Judge Gregory G. Hollows ruled Wednesday that Park Service officials intentionally demolished the retaining wall before investigators could examine it. As punishment, he recommended that the judge overseeing the case formally find the Park Service negligent in Tommy Botell's death. Such a finding by U.S. District Judge Garland Burrell would give a big boost to the Botell family's lawsuit.
Hollows' findings are not binding, and the final decision rests with Burrell.
Still, the magistrate was unstinting in his rebuke of the Park Service's handling of the case. He rejected the government's arguments that workers knocked down what remained of the wall shortly after the July 29, 2009, accident in Lassen Volcanic National Park because they felt it posed a danger to other hikers.
The magistrate said there was no need to destroy the wall because "there is no doubt that the scene of the accident, i.e., the remaining part of the wall, was important for investigative purposes."

Key Injuries May Have an Impact as Season Starts
As the season gets underway, some bad news has hit the wires in the last few days. Here's an update with some of the most recent injuries that could have an impact on your fantasy baseball team.
The Red Sox, already trying to find a way to recover from their 2011 meltdown, may have to do it without newly acquired closer Andrew Bailey. Perhaps they should have known better than to pick up an injury-prone closer in the first place, huh? USA Today is reporting that Bailey's thumb injury could be serious enough to put him on the shelf for the season. And manager Bobby Valentine's quote offered little to refute that possibility:
Valentine said he thinks the right-handed Bailey will be out "a while" with a right thumb injury. Asked if that meant days, weeks or months, the manager said: "possibly all of the above."
Uh oh! The full article can be found at the link below.
Red Sox closer Bailey may need thumb surgery (USA Today)
The A's also got some bad news on the injury front – which seems to be an ongoing theme in recent years – when reliever Joey Devine was shut down with elbow soreness. Devine came back from 2009 Tommy John surgery last year and performed well in stints with the A's and their Triple-A affiliate in Sacramento.
Dallas Braden, another who was attempting a return from injury and expected to be available in May, was also shutdown with shoulder soreness.
More info can be found on the San Francisco Chronicle's Drumbeat blog.
Others of note include the Cards' Chris Carpenter (nerve injury in right shoulder), Arizona's Stephen Drew (fractured ankle), the Dodgers' Ted Lilly (stiff neck), and the Rangers' Nelson Cruz (bruised wrist).
For a list of current injuries and estimated return dates, check out the MLB Fantasy Player Injury list.

We've already told you the best time and place to look up and catch the Geminid meteor shower tonight – but NASA is now saying that there could be an added bonus: another never-before-seen shower set to happen at roughly the same time.
Comet Wirtanen, which circles the sun every 5.4 years, has passed by Earth many times – but this year in particular could mark our first encounter with its debris stream.
"Dust from this comet hitting Earth's atmosphere could produce as many as 30 meteors per hour," Bill Cooke of NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office said in a statement Tuesday (Dec. 11). "Meteors from the new shower (if any) will be visible in the early evening, with the Geminids making their appearance later on and lasting until dawn," Cooke added.
Should the shower actually happen, astronomers will likely call it the "Piscids" – since the meteors will tend to radiate from the constellation Pisces.
With the Geminids already predicted (a best case scenario) to throw out between 80-120 per hour and the Piscids potentially contributing another 30 – we could (fingers crossed) have ourselves quite the celestial event tonight.
Put down the television remote and get out there!

This is a violation of humanity and ethical respect to those who are native to this island. I spent 3 years on Okinawa and know that it was the most memorable experiece of my young adult life. I pray that the U.S. and Japan will see and understand the impact that these decisions will have on the people and culture of this beautiful island. I hope that Governor Onaga is successful in his discussions with the U.S. Politicians in Washington DC this week. Gambatte!! Thank you! Sincerely.

Tatters, the acclaimed Minneapolis shop in the Lyn-Lake neighborhood that has become a destination for Levi's, Western wear and other vintage finds for more than three decades, is turning off the lights for good.
Manager Doug Denham says the closing is due to a number of reasons.
"Basically, we're not doing the numbers that we need to do to keep up with the expenses. All this construction and new residences in the neighborhood haven't done us any good, either. It's just not our customer," he says. "I think who's moving in here are young professionals mostly working downtown or in the suburbs, and that's where they're shopping."
Denham says the store will close when the building gets sold or when merchandise is cleared out, which he estimates will happen in October.
In the meantime, a close-out sale is underway with items currently 25 percent off. Discounts will continue to increase as the closing draws near.
Denham is selling the vintage world maps that have long decorated the walls of the 34-year-old shop through a silent auction on the Tatters' Facebook page. Maps include prewar Europe, 1938 Asia and 1965 Africa.

Curtains & blinds – practical meets personal
Curtains and blinds are probably the most noticeable decorations on your wall. They make your home look more personal, and unlike wallpaper, they do lots of other practical jobs, too. We have a big choice of styles, colours and materials. You'll find heavy curtains that make your home cosier, and thin, light curtains that let in the sun but keep the neighbours' nosey glances out. We have blackout roller blinds to help you sleep and venetian blinds that let you adjust the natural light so that it's always just right. And if you want to create a layer-on-layer effect with up to six layers of curtains, we have a curtain rail system that works with both our panel curtains and many of our other curtains.
Curtains to divide a room or match your rug
Curtains and blinds are certainly great ideas for windows. But did you know that they can be very practical, affordable solutions in other places, too? You can hang curtains from the ceiling to divide up a room. Or you can use a curtain or a roller blind as the "door" of a wardrobe or a set of shelves. Many of our curtains and blinds match our rugs or bed linen or are even part of a collection, so you can get a set of soft furnishings in your favourite style. And they're easy to change when you feel like giving your home a quick makeover. We also have rods, wires and rails to hang your curtains from and accessories like curtain rings, too.

Note: The workflow sample mentioned in this article can be downloaded from the Opalis project on CodePlex: http://opalis.codeplex.com
This is a collection of workflows that demonstrates the use the Query Database and Write to Database Activities to interact with SQL databases.
These example Workflows depend on the Northwind sample database for SQL Server. The Northwind sample database can be downloaded from:
1. Query Database
In this example we automates following use case:
The workflow for this use case is as follows:
The Custom Start Activity is used to obtain the SQL Server name using a parameter:
The Query Database Activity 'Get Titles and Count' runs a query against the Northwind sample database:
The SQL Server name is obtained from the Custom Start Activity by subscribing to the 'SQL Server' Published Data:
The Query result is returned as multi-value data with a delimited string for each row returned:
Sales Representative;6 Vice President, Sales;1 NULL;1 Inside Sales Coordinator;1 Sales Manager;1
Sales Representative;6 Vice President, Sales;1 NULL;1 Inside Sales Coordinator;1 Sales Manager;1
The Compare Values Activity 'Filter by Count > 5' uses a 'Field' Data Manipulation Function to evaluate the value for the rows counted for each Title:
The Query Database Activity 'Format New Table Name' ensures that the returned Title does not contain any spaces as it will be used as the name of the new table that will be created in the next Activity. This is accomplished by using a combination of SQL and an Opalis Data Manipulation Function:
The Query Database Activity 'Create New Table' creates a new table based on the Title returned by the previous Activity:
The Query Database Activity 'Get Names for Filtered Results' queries for the Names from the Employees Table with the Filtered Title and ensures the name format is 'FirstName LastName':
The Query Database Activity 'Insert Filtered Records' inserts the returned data from the previous Activity into the new table:
Launch the Workflow '1. Query Database' by using Start, or by running it using the Testing Console. When prompted, enter the appropriate SQL Server name:
Check the Opalis Designer Events tab or the Testing Console log to see the resulting output.
In SQL Server, the resulting table will have following contents:
Refer to the Query Database Activity Online Help for more information.
This Workflow uses the Custom Start Activity to obtain input data using three parameters:
The Write to Database Activity subscribes to the Published Data variables returned for the 'First Name' and 'Last Name' parameters to insert a new record into the Northwind database 'Employees' table:
Launch the Workflow '2. Write to Database' by using Start, or by running it using the Testing Console. When prompted, enter the appropriate values:
Check the Opalis Designer Events tab or the Testing Console log to see the resulting output. Open the 'Employee' table from the Northwind database in SQL to view the newly added record.
Refer to the Write to Database Activity Online Help for more information.
I'm wondering how I setup a connection with a non-deafult port to a SQL server?
I have tried the usual ":"
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for your help.

Lazy Hazy Days
What if I had a month of one-a-days? I tend to use about five images a post so that would put me at about a 20% workload for the summer. (See how I've now stretched it from a month to over two?) If I did, limit myself to one image a day that is, I'd have more time to lounge about on this pretty, airy love seat. And love it, I do. Stripes softer than crisp and the Bennison fabric on the wall - pretty as pretty can be. And that punchy little pillow is just what I need beneath my head. (You won't mind if I prop my feet up on the arm, I hope?) Oh. Except it's not mine. Bother.
With all this time on my hands, I realize it's been a long while since I've seen East Egg; perhaps this is the summer to go back.

The fabrics are beautiful, and make me look at the 'brown' in the room, which makes my heart sing. The mirror and table are whispering sweet nothings to each other. Yes!

I love that room. With all of its great elements, one picture is all you need. What about that mirror!!! I guess that the boys are out of school for the summer--so that love seat might get a little lonely. Be well. Mary

Ellen Lake, then 19 and leaning on pole, is pictured in Mississippi during the summer of 1964 when she helped blacks register to vote.
- Filed Under
Leslie McLemore remembers when blacks couldn't vote in Mississippi.
His grandfather didn't cast a ballot until he was 79, the year before he died. That was 1967 - two years after passage of the Voting Rights Act.
As the Supreme Court considers whether to eliminate a key provision of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, McLemore and other civil rights veterans want the court to remember what it took to get the federal law passed. ...

Tonight: BYU hosts Gonzaga in pivotal battle
Provo • BYU could help its chances of earning an NCAA basketball tournament with a victory Thursday night against highly-regarded Gonzaga in the Marriott Center.

Taylor Swift is recently said to have increased her security detail and it may have been a wise choice after a fan was reportedly arrested by police at the singer's concert over the weekend for allegedly sending threatening messages to the star and branding her "satan" on a series of posters.
The 'I Knew You Were Trouble' singer entertained 57,000 fans at the Heinz Field arena in Pittsburgh on Saturday and while her performance went without a hitch for the most part, there was one fan who was intent on causing havoc, following what appears to be an ongoing campaign against the star.
Taylor Swift has experienced trouble with stalkers and threats recently (AdMedia / Splash News)
According to Pittsburgh's CBS Local, 28-year-old Joseph Jackson arrived at the concert carrying posters with various messages for the singer including "I luv you," and "Taylor Swift is with satan," while also sending threats via Facebook. Once security saw the nasty messages, Jackson was reportedly removed from his seat and taken into police custody.
Police state that when they questioned him over the Facebook threats, he became agitated and told the officers: "Taylor Swift is Satan and that 6,000 years is six days and death comes on the sixth day, so Taylor Swift is in danger."
No weapons were found in Jackson's possession at the time of arrest and he was taken to a jail where he will reportedly undergo a mental health evaluation, it has been reported.
Taylor, 23, was recently said to have upped her security detail after a stranger approached her Rhode Island property recently. The country star is said to have erected several signs around her mansion with the message: "I knew you were trouble when you walked in. No trespassers."

FORT WORTH (November 5, 2012)--American Airlines and its pilots may be close to an agreement on a new contract; negotiators for the Allied Pilots Association say they hope to present a deal to the union's board of directors this week.
American and parent Fort Worth-based AMR Corp. have been operating under bankruptcy protection since last November.
A message Sunday to union members said negotiators recently finalized contract language to the point that there are only a handful of open paragraphs.
The issues include pay raises, furlough protection and limits on American's ability to use smaller planes typically operated by regional airlines such as American Eagle and SkyWest.
American's eight other union labor groups have approved cost-cutting deals.

Veteran Choo adjusting to left field at Globe Life Park
ARLINGTON — Shin-Soo Choo on Thursday started a crash course in the art of playing left field at Globe Life Park.
Choo, entering his first season with the Rangers, tried to familiarize himself with the nuances of his new position during an afternoon workout. He also started in left field in the park for the first time in nearly eight years during the exhibition game against Quintana Roo of the Mexican League.
Choo played center field with Cincinnati last season and has fewer career starts in left
field (60) than the other outfield spots. Choo can apply his experience as a right fielder in that balls will hook and slice toward the left-field line.
"It's something I'll have to get used to," Choo said. "The more I play out there, the more comfortable I'll be."
Choo made his three career starts in left in this park while with Cleveland in September, 2006. Left field is considered more challenging than right field at Globe Life because of the crooks and turns in the wall, the odd bounces off different surfaces and the depth. Globe Life has the fourth-deepest left-center in the majors at 390 feet.
"I don't think it's going to be that much different," said coach Gary Pettis, who works with outfielders. "He's played right before, so he should have a good understanding of it. If there's an issue, we'll get out there and work on it and fix it."

When looking at a All-Girl film, there are certain things that I really look for such as kissing, finger play(anal/vaginal),licking, rimming, sexy outfits, spitting, good interaction(look like they are enjoying themselves), and proper use of toys. Things that I dont like are: strap-ons and excessive use of toys.
Bella did a good job with her first installment, so based on that I am expecting a good flick, not to mention the cast. Especially Jana Cova!
The film is presented in the standard 1:33 ratio and is pretty crisp. The audio is clear and well balanced.
Toys,rimming,anal play,pussy licking,strap-ons,pussy shaving
(Avy Scott,Boo,Holly,Bella)
Things start out with all the girls getting on a big bed. Boo is dressed up like a bunny, and the rest are in their undies and bras, well holly has a black shirt on. They start to kiss and touch one another. Holly begins to look and play with Boo's pussy and ass, while Bella and Avy get friendly. Bella begins to finger Avy's pussy and ass but soon turn their attention to Boo. After a bit of pussy play with Boo, the girls turn their attention to Holly. Holly is on her back while bella is shoving a giant black cock in her pussy, and Avy is touching/kissing/fingering her ass(Boo leaves the bed..where? well don't know).After Bella gets done with using the toy, she starts to finger Holly Vigorously, and Holly definately gets off..hehe.Bella gets Holly and Avy on top of one another so that their asses are in the air, and starts to tongue their ass and pussies, while that is going on Boo comes back, this time without the bunny outfit but sporting red undies which she soon takes off and then the girls start to play with Avy.Avy is on her back, while Bella sucks on her nice large tits and Boo is using a blue see through dildo on her pussy.After a bit of that, Bella gets Avy on all fours for a bit of deep tongue in ass action(she really goes to work burrying her face in her cheeks and slapping her ass) while Boo and Holly play with Bella's behind.Next Bella and Holly get into a bit of ass fucking with a double ended dildo while Avy and Boo are rubbing and fingering their pussies.This goes on for a bit, then Bella removes the end which was in Hollys ass and begins to lick it clean and then gives it to Boo for a taste.Bella gets up to take out a giant rubber toy that sports four balls(each getting bigger and bigger) molded into it with a handle(this thing is long!!)Bella takes all but the last ball in her ass, which is really impressive.The scene cuts and we then see Avy eating out Holly with the camera fixed on Avy's sweet pucker and continues to do so, slowly moving to Boo which is pussy grinding with Bella.Avy continues to eat out holly and finger her as well, but soon begins to pussy grind her, while Boo fucks Bells with her thigh.Once they all get done grinding, thigh fucking and jiggling their boobs,Bella starts to fuck Boo with a strap on from behind.They move from reverse cowgirl/cowgirl/missionary while Holly licks Avy's pussy.Soon Bella takes off the strap on and they begin to ravish Avy.She gets her pussy licked,sucked and slurped on by Holly and Bella, while Boo sucks on her tits.The scene ends with all of the girls laying on top of one another smiling!
Overall this scene was HOT. I really liked the way they all interacted and seemed to really love what they were doing. My only complaint is there should have been a bit more rimming and ass play.
This scene starts off with Bella ringing Boo's door bell(aparently to massage).Boo answers the door with a snobby attitude(highlight of the acting)and they make their way into the living room where there is a massaging table.Bella begins to rub Boo, primarly her ass cheeks.Bella spreads and her ass, and soon runs her fingers up and down her crack.Bella takes off Boo's underwear and gets Boo to stick her ass in the air which Bella begins to play with her pussy by kissing and pulling on her lips.Bella soon turns her attention to her asshole by briefly tonguing it.Bella spanks Boo's cheeks a bit as well as jiggling them.Boo gets on her back so that Bella can play with her pussy and boobs a bit.There is some brief kissing before Bella gets to licking her pussy and finger it.Boo begins with the "oh fuck,yes,oh fuck",while Bella lets her taste her pussy juices.Bella then takes out a buttplug and takes off her panties, which she sticks in Boo's mouth.Bella begins to fuck her in the pussy with the buttplug, while lifting Boo's legs up to lick her asshole a bit.Bella pulls out the toy and has Boo suck on it.The scene cuts and we see Bella on her back on the table while Boo sucks on the buttplug on top of Bella's pussy.This doesn't last for long because Boo starts to burry the buttplug in Bella's pussy.Boo is jamming that thing in Bella's pussy like no tomorrow, and really get's Bella off!Bella begins to fuck Boo some more with a new toy(blue see through dick)on her back.Bella pulls it out after Boo cums, sticking it her mouth, and the camera zooms in to Boo's pussy while Bella shows us her cum.Bella sneaks around the table to get a HUGE toy with a fist on the end and trys to stick it in Boo's ass, but Boo is like Hell NO!After a bit of sucking on the fist from the two,Boo sticks it in Bella's pussy.She doesn't fuck Bella with it for long because Boo gets on top of Bella for a bit of grinding/humping/choking and some pussy fingering, which then leads to Boo sitting on Bella's face getting her pussy snacked on.The scene ends with Bella finger fucking Boo and then the two of them sharing Boo's juices.
Overall this scene was okay.It had some nice shots of Boo's ass shaking and wiggling, as well as some humor.They both seemed to enjoy themselves which is always a plus!
(Britney Foster,Malorie,Bella)
I've always thought that sex being filmed in a gym is really sexy, and this scene delivers just that.I'm not too familiar with Malorie but she sports a nice round ass,large natural tits, and a pretty face.She's not as thin as Bella and Britney, but is stil sexy.Bella sees the girls and walks over to them.She starts to instruct them in a variety of excercises,but in the process is pulling off their bottoms checking out their assests!After a bit of excercises and some ass looks, Bella and Britney start to rub and lick Malorie's pussy.Malorie pulls out her natural big breasts from her shirt and starts fondling them.Bella and Britney turn Malorie over and starts to spread her beautiful ass open.Bella starts to lick her asshole(oh what a feast)and then Britney starts to take over,which then leads to some fingering of her pussy and ass rubbing.Britney gets behing Malorie,licking and tonguing her ass,while Bella pulls out a rubber cock.She gives it to Malorie to suck while Britney warms up her pussy.Bella begins to fuck Malorie with the toy wile licking her ass with Britney slapping and wiggling her cheeks.Malorie and Bella begin to fuck Britney's ass with a buttplug while Britney uses a little vibrator on her clit.Bella pulls out the buttplug from Britney's ass sticking it in her mouth, while Malorie straddles Britney's face with her pussy.We get a nice camera shot of Malories breats,while Bella finger fucks Britney's pussy letting her taste it a bit.Soon Bella lays on her back while Britney fingers her pussy and Malorie smothers bella's face with her ass.The girls continue to play with Bella's pussy for a bit, but then move over to a bench where Malorie is on her back getting her pussy fucked by a weird looking blue toy while she licks Bella's pussy.After tasting her own juices, Malorie sticks the toy into Bella's pussy pushing it in and out while Britney sucks on Bella's clit.Malorie and Britney get on their knees fingering and licking Bella's twat while she's standing.This moves into them kissing one another then to them choking one another while licking their pussies and that ends the scene.
Overall this scene is pretty well done. I don't have any complaints other than that it should have been longer because Malories ass is sooo HOT!
(Bunny Luv,Bella)
Many people that I know don't like Bunny Luv, but I adore her. She's got a great set of tits, a nice ass, and great lips.With that being said let's move on!!This scene starts off with Bella and Bunny kissing and groping their tits in a bath tub(a very nice one I might add).Bella gets up and sits on an edge squeezing out some shaving gel around her pussy.Lathering the gel up so that it gets all creamy, Bunny starts to shave bella carefully with a razor.She doesn't shave her bald,just trimming her up a bit.They switch roles, and Bella starts to shave Bunny.While Bella's trimming Bunny up,Bunny is caressing herself with the shaving gel rubbing her tits and tummy(oh god, was this hot).Lying down into the water and wraping her legs around Bella,Bunny starts to finger her pussy, pulling her lips apart and having Bella do the same.Bella then turns Bunny around so that Bella can tongue Bunny's ass from behind.We get a nice close up of Bella sticking her tongue in Bunny's sweet asshole!Unfortunately this doesn't last that long and Bella gets her pussy sucked and finger fucked by Bunny.Bunny licks Bella's pussy a bit longer, then moves to tonguing and licking her asshole while playing with her pussy from behind.Bunny keeps licking her ass,spreading it,and even sticking her tits in her ass, before lubing up a red buttplug.Bunny begins to fuck Bella in her ass with it from behind.Bella's ass warms to it rather quickly,and seems to be really getting off from it!!Bella then takes out a rubber cock, fucking Bunny while she's standing up.We get some nice shots of Bunny's tits too!Not to long into it,Bella starts to fuck Bunny with the rubber cock from behind and licking her ass as well.Pulling the cock out she gives it to Bunny to clean a bit.Those nice lips of hers goes right to work,slowly licking and sucking it(she's so fucking hot).Bella then takes out a purple dildo and begins to fuck Bunny's pussy.Bunny pulls her ass back so we can get a great shot of everything.Bella cleans it off, then Bunny starts to finger Bella some more, with a bit more ass tonguing.Bella fucks Bunny a bit more with the rubber cock before the scene ends with them kissing.
Overall this scene is great.I really didn't see anything I didn't like in this scene other than Bella should have tongued Bunny's ass a bit more, but then again I don't think I could ever get enough of that!
(Jana Cova,Bella)
This is the last scene and it's a smoker!Jana is sooo fucking hot!!She's wearing a blue top with white stars and the same colored bottoms.Bella is wearing a purple top and bottom.It starts off with Bella and Jana roller skating outdoors.The two roll their way inside with a great shot of their asses.Bella starts rubbing and sniffing Jana's pussy.She lets Jana smell herself a few times as well, though Jana seems a little weird about it.lol.They walk over to a couch, and Bella starts to suck and lick one of Jana's perfectly grown tits.She then works her way down to Jana's pussy smelling and fingering it while Jana squeezes her tits.Bella takes off Jana's bottoms and begins to fuck her with them.Turning Jana over on her side,Bella begins to spread and wiggle Jana's ass as well as sniff it.Bella then proceeds to open up Jana's ass licking and tounguing it while playing with her pussy.Soon Bella starts to fuck Jana's pussy with a silver dildo.Jana takes over after a bit,and Bella sucks/licks, and plays with her tits, even rubbing and tasting her asshole with her finger.Coming from behind,Bella licks and tongues Jana's pussy and asshole.Jana eventually pulls out a blue see through double ended toy and fucks Bella's pussy a bit before sucking on it,then fucking Bella from behind with it.Jana then pulls out a buttplug and fucks Bella's ass with it.Pulling the buttplug out,Jana lets Bella suck on it a bit.They both stand up and walk over to a giant mirror where Jana continues to fuck Bella's ass with the buttplug.We get some great shots of it being pulled in and out of her ass.Bella soon sucks on the toy cleaning it from her ass juices.The two begin to masturbate to one another.Bella then starts to lick and eat Jana's ass again.They pull out the double ended dildo again,this time they both have it in their pussies fucking it.The scene ends with them rubbing against their boobs.
Overall this scene rocked.I don't have any complaints with this scene, however it would have been nice to see Jana get something shoved in her ass!
There is a behind the scenes featurette which is pretty cool,biographies,fetish menu,photo gallery,and teasers(no limits 2,chasin tail 2,enjoy vol.2).
This was a fantastic video. It was better than the first, blowing it out of the water. I thought every scene in the film was good, though the second was probably the weakest.I would say that if you are into girl/girl sex, then this one is a definate buy. Now if only there were more All Girl porns like this!!!!

Some teams subscribe to the "best player available" theory, with the Rams, Bucs and Browns clearly being among them.
Consider that the Rams, who invested the No. 2 overall pick in Jason Smith last year and only a few years back invested a first round pick in another offensive tackle, Alex Barron, made Rodger Saffold, a career tackle, the first pick of the second round. Saffold will most likely be moved inside to guard.
As talented as Saffold is, he doesn't fill the need for a defensive tackle the Rams now have considering they traded away former starter Adam Carriker.
On the opposite side of the spectrum, the Tampa Bay Bucs, who had a need at offensive tackle, instead elected to again fortify their defensive line, taking Brian Price from UCLA. His burst inside made him a natural candidate as a 3-technique, the same position the Bucs had filled previously with first round pick, Gerald McCoy.
The Browns made a similar move, electing to look past concerns at pass rusher and quarterback to take another defensive back -- the 10th among the first 38 selections. Pairing the big-hitting TJ Ward with first round pick Joe Haden and recently acquired DB Sheldon Brown gives the Browns an impressive new secondary to compete with the underrated passing attacks of the AFC North.

WTF are you smoking RANG?
Yeah they got that guy from Texas last year (Tampa that is)...but their D line sucks...teams just pounded the rock with impunity and ha little fear from a push up front...
I think TB did pretty good nabbing Mccoy and Price...especially considering some people had Price going in the 1st round
Im not sold on Arrelious Benn, and trading up to get him when Kindle was still on the board...but with the departure of Antonio Bryant they desperately needed a playmaker on the outside.
I think Tampa has drafted to fill their needs...
I am excited that they with who they got so far in this draft......

I like the fact the Rams got some OL help. Smart move. When you have Bradford and the money he gets , you have to suround him with great protection and time to through. The Rams are decent at wr so I am cool with the OL pick.

The Browns could have easily grabbed Safety Ward with any
one of their 3rd round picks. He might have even been there in
the 5th round. I believe he was a big reach with the 6th pick
in the 2nd round. Then, they moved up in the 2nd round
to grab Hardesty, who I also believe would have been there
for them in the 3rd round. Both players have lenghty injury
histories, and both were reaches in my opinion.
I have not been very impressed with the Browns moves thus far.
I am very dissappointed at this point. If Coly McCoy is there in
round 3,I believe the Brow2ns should go ahead and draft him.
I hate seeing the Ravens, Steelers, and Bengals grabbing
players that I wanted the Browns to pick. Very frustrating.

You got that right. Seeing how Boldin is now in the AFC North secondary help was a must. Cleveland defensive backfield was horrilble. Build the pass rush up with the later picks.

Well stated, Leige. Obviously, Rob Rang didn't see the burnt toast opposing qb's were feasting on everytime the Browns pass defense was on the field last season. With or without Haden, I'd qualify the pick as addressing a huge need.

I couldn't agree with you any more. Obviously, Rob Rang didn't see the burnt toast opposing qb's were feeding off of everytime the Browns lined up on passing downs. I would say getting a safety was a huge need.

The Browns Secondary was a "Massive" hole... literally!!!
I think that was a great move and I was getting close to giving up any hope for the Browns after very 'suspect' moves the last few years.
Finally, an area of the team I can hang my hat on.

The text as it appears on the back of the card
The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is a new international trade pact crafted by multinational corporations and currently being negotiated in secret by the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) along with eleven other foreign governments. Over 600 corporate advisors also have access to the text, but the public and civil society are excluded. Little was known about the TPP until a series of leaked documents was published in 2011 by the Citizens Trade Campaign, revealing what many had suspected—that the TPP is not about trade at all, but is rather a corporate power grab that circumvents domestic judicial systems and undermines national sovereignty.
If ratified, the TPP would establish a system of international tribunals allowing corporations to challenge the laws, regulations and even court decisions of any member nation (including local, county and state laws) if they are deemed to adversely impact the corporation's expected future profits. Under the TPP's "investor-state" provision, corporations would even be allowed to file preemptive lawsuits against proposed government actions before they are undertaken, preventing, for example, New York or other states and municipalities from passing anti-fracking legislation or enacting consumer protection laws. Judges on these tribunals would consist of corporate lawyers on temporary leave from their regular jobs with multinational corporations, and because of international treaty obligations, their decisions would supersede those of domestic courts, possibly including the U.S. Supreme Court.
Similarly, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), negotiated in the early 1990s, forced governments to overturn many environmental and worker protection policies. NAFTA caused the elimination of hundreds of thousands of U.S. jobs, and millions of Mexican farmers who could no longer compete with heavily subsidized U.S. crops were displaced from their land, setting off a wave of desperate migration northward. The TPP will greatly accelerate this global race to the bottom as it is much larger than NAFTA; its negotiating countries already constitute 40% of the world economy and it contains "docking" provisions allowing other nations to join later.
Provisions in the TPP specifically threaten to:
- Undermine food safety protections by making it harder for countries to adopt regulations such as labeling laws or banning GMOs.
- Dismantle the "Buy Local" movement by overturning government laws designed to keep taxpayer dollars in the local economy.
- Inhibit access to lifesaving medicine by extending monopoly drug patents for big pharmaceuticals.
- Curtail Internet freedom, spur further financial deregulation, roll back environmental laws and more.
The TPP is being negotiated under unprecedented secrecy because previous attempts to pass similar "free trade" pacts have been met with widespread public opposition. Grassroots movements in the past have successfully stopped the Multilateral Agreement on Investment, the Free Trade Area of the Americas, the expansion of the World Trade Organization, and others. The Obama Administration therefore plans to bring the TPP to a "fast track" vote as early as the Fall of 2013, bypassing congressional review and public debate entirely. Therefore, we must act now, utilizing education, protest and civil disobedience to stop the TPP and build a broad-based movement for future battles.

|Enhanced myocardial contractility associated with hypercalcaemia of hyperparathyroidism - a case study in six patients.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 12844199 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|The possible association of increased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with increased serum Ca(2+) was observed in our clinic. Six patients with confirmed primary hyperparathyroidism and hypercalcaemia were studied prospectively. Tc-99m sestamibi gated SPECT was done pre- and postoperatively. The LVEF was abnormally high in all the patients pre-operatively, i.e. above the normal reference range (47-61%) as used in our clinic. It decreased in all of them postoperatively, yet in only three patients to values within the normal range. This was associated with normalisation of the serum Ca(2+) values. The median of the pre-operative LVEF was 74% and postoperative it was 61.5%. The median difference was 9% with a 95% CI for the median difference for paired data (6; 26). This was statistically significant. Increased LVEF was not previously described as part of the clinical picture of primary hyperparathyroidism. The in vivo effect of chronic hypercalcaemia on LV pump function my need to be revisited.

9x4-The Ties That Bind:
"Get my necklace back and I'll show you how to break the bond".....I do not think that phrase means what you think it means. Cause once Mitchell, Valla and the de-facto SG-1 team of Teal'C and Daniel track down a host of items that Valla had traded and flipped, he tells them he doesn't know how. So I jumped right in, this episode deals with the fallout of the bracelets that bonded Daniel & Valla together while they were magically transplanted to another Galaxy where the Ori are. A fun episode that, at it's core, is really giving us more character insight into Valla(whose still just a guest star 4-episodes into the seasons). But don't worry, I'm sure the effect of the psyiologcial connection from the bands will wear off in time. By that point Valla will be....reformed?
9x5-The Powers That Be:
So a world that trusts Valla is on the lists of planets to visit. Valla insists she goes to help smooth things over cause she is on good terms with them. Mitchell sees this as a red flag, anyone who trusts her does so at their peril. Come to find out, Valla who once was infected with a Gou'ald named Ketesh, ruled these people as a god. After the Tok'ra removed Ketesh, Valla still kept up the charade. She's been gone a long while and a Prior of the Ori has shown up to demand their worship. Valla is exposed as a fake and sentenced to death, then life in prison. The Prior infects the whole immediate population with a fatal disease then leaves. SG-1, with Valla's help using the Gou'ald healing device tries to tend to the villagers. The Prior returns, heals everyone, even resurrects those who died. The Prior leaves SG-1 unharmed, even after Valla attempts to fill him with lead, and instructs them to spread the word of his deeds and that the Ori are coming.
I liked both of these episodes alot. These Ori are going to be some nasty sonsa...., wondering what weak spots we'll expose to defeat them. Daniel did give a big speech about science, technology and knowledge. I'm guessing some Ancient device will come into play? The Ancients themselves? Might they after the events with Daniel and Oma cause them to reevaluate their non-interference directive and get involved somehow?

Sentencing is scheduled to take place Thursday in Door County Court for a 33-year-old Brussels mother convicted of felony child neglect in the death of her eight month old daughter.
The sentencing hearing for Melissa Martinez has been rescheduled several times, most recently on September 19 so the defense could obtain a private pre-sentence report.
The pre-sentence investigation was filed Monday.
Martinez pleaded no contest June 11 to a felony charge of neglecting a child resulting in death. A charge of homicide by intoxicated use of a motor vehicle was dismissed as part of a plea agreement but will be considered at sentencing.
Martinez is accused of leaving Elena Martinez strapped in the car seat of a running SUV with the heat on for several hours October 19, 2011. Authorities say Melissa Martinez had been drinking.
Martinez faces a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison and up to $100,000 in fines.

LAKE TAHOE — Sierra Sotheby's International Realty agents ramp up their philanthropic efforts in Lake Tahoe this holiday season with donations to Sierra Nevada College of Incline Village and Mt. Tallac Continuation School of South Lake Tahoe.
Incline Village agent Terry Barbery established the Terry Barbery Scholarship Fund for deserving Sierra Nevada College students. The first disbursement of the scholarship is slated to be awarded in January of 2014. The $1,000 dollar scholarship will be applied to the student's tuition and financial needs for the semester.
Barbery represented Sierra Nevada College as the buyer during the purchase of 1008 Tahoe Boulevard in 2012, which is being transformed into the Holman Arts & Media Center scheduled to open next month. Robert and Robin Holman asked Barbery to help broker the purchase of the property which now bears their name.
"It was then that I decided I wanted to get involved with Sierra Nevada College. I really admired the Holmans' contribution to the college, so I started the Terry Barbery Scholarship Fund. The opportunity to provide funding for deserving students that otherwise may not get a shot at an education is very rewarding. I am looking forward to 2014 and making more contributions to the scholarship as time goes on," Barbery said.
Future contributions from Barbery include five percent of his commission from every sale and fifteen percent of his earnings from clients with ties to Sierra Nevada College.
"We deeply appreciate Terry Barbery's philanthropic efforts with Sierra Nevada College. His commitment to the community and higher education is wonderful, and we look forward to working with him in the coming year," Sierra Nevada College Vice President of Development Dino Herndandez said.
Sierra Sotheby's International Realty South Lake Tahoe agent Thane McCall makes his contribution to education in Lake Tahoe this season with $50 dollar gift certificates to each of the 56 students at Mt. Tallac Continuation School. McCall also pays the students a personal visit at the high school and provides the students a party with homemade food. This is the second year of McCall's donation to students of the school.
Mt. Tallac Continuation School serves students with various circumstances that require more flexibility than available at conventional high schools. Mt Tallac Continuation School focuses on community building while helping students complete the credits needed in order to obtain a high school diploma.
"Sadly, Mt. Tallac Continuation School is often forgotten or thought of as a school of lesser quality, when in reality the work done there is vital to our community. I choose to donate in an attempt to recognize the efforts of this group of driven students," McCall said.
"As far as I know, Mr. McCall is the only community member to provide a donation of this type to any group of students in the district. I don't believe any person has walked into a school or class and asked, 'May I give a gift directly to each of your students?' The students asked Mr. McCall to come back to visit, and they meant it as if they felt his genuine respect, which for them is more important than any amount of money," Resource Teacher for Lake Tahoe Unified School District Holly Greenough said.
Sierra Sotheby's International Realty is also accepting clothing donations for the Good Shepherd's Clothes Closet, a Reno nonprofit that clothes the needy, through the beginning of the year. Visit gsccreno.org for a list of most needed donation items. Businesses and community members are invited to make donations at any Sierra Sotheby's International Realty office location in Squaw Valley, Incline Village, Zephyr Cove and South Lake Tahoe.

Philadelphia Eagles' right tackle Winston Justice is scheduled to undergo surgery on his right knee tomorrow. The procedure, which will be performed by renowned surgeon, Dr. James Andrews, could be a relatively minor procedure to fix a bone chip.
Unfortunately, according to Geoff Mosher of the Courier Post , there is also a possibility that Justice will need microfracture surgery, a much more serious procedure that could sideline the Eagles' starting right tackle for the 2011 season.
The Eagles have proven depth along the interior of their offensive line, but may need reinforcements at tackle should Justice be sidelined for a long period of time. Former Auburn standout King Dunlap took over for Justice in the Eagles' loss to the Packers in the opening round of the playoffs. Dunlap, the 230th selection of the 2008 draft, has great size, but may lack the mobility Philadelphia wants protecting Michael Vick -- especially considering that the right tackle protects Vick's blindside. Vick is left handed.
The 2011 crop of right tackles is a particularly strong one. The Eagles could have their choice of several candidates with the No. 23 in the first round. Wisconsin's Gabe Carimi and Mississippi State's Derek Sherrod would appear to be especially strong candidates.

Kris Kross's Chris Kelly: Autopsy Complete, No Foul Play

According to various sources, the Fulton County Medical Examiner determined Thursday that there was no sign of trauma or foul play in Kelly's case. However, a toxicology report still needs to be completed , which could take at least three weeks.
Reports have been swirling that Kelly died as a result of a drug overdose, and the autopsy results seem to support that theory.
The rapper's mother called 911 on Wednesday, telling police that her son had taken a mixture of heroin and cocaine the previous night and had been brought home to recover from the drug use. She mentioned this was not the first time this had happened.
Kelly reportedly said he didn't feel well that morning, then passed out around 3 p.m. He was pronounced dead an hour and a half later.
Both Kelly's mother and his uncle confirmed that the musician had an "extensive history of drug abuse."
Kelly rocketed to fame as part of Kris Kross at the age of 13, largely due to 1992's chart-topping hit "Jump."

We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.
—Albert Einstein
Have you heard about "Stockmanship" and wondered just what it was? Have you read something about Bud Williams or others who teach stockmanship and thought you might like to learn more? Would you like to learn marketing techniques based on today's price rather than a crystal ball? If so, this web page has many resources to help you.
Good stockmanship is more than just having "tame" animals you can pet or trick into the corral with grain, it means having the tools to easily and quietly manage your livestock through the entire production process including gathering, weaning, rotating pastures, sorting, backgrounding, feedlot management, etc. with the results of lowered stress for you and the livestock.
The emotional element of livestock is often ignored or misunderstood. They appear to be (and are often treated as) unemotional and stupid, when they are neither. Emotional stress can cause as much or more damage to production as the physical stress of poor feed, bad weather, or rough handling.
Bud Williams developed marketing techniques which are based on today's price and simple math to assist you to make decisions about what to sell and what to buy. We continue to teach and explain his techniques.
Attend a school, and learn how good stockmanship can make all your livestock handling experiences more enjoyable and how these marketing techniques can make your ranch more profitable.
See photos of various events we have participated in or taught, read the outline of our schools, check the calendar listing where we will be speaking, read our blog with stories, photos, and information on stockmanship, watch videos we have posted to YouTube, and find out where to buy an excellent book and various videos on stockmanship.

Welcome to Coyote's Game Native American Beadwork
Don't want to order on-line? Use our toll-free order number (800) 952-5214.
Long before contact between European and American Indian cultures, Native Americans used natural objects such as bone, semi-precious stones, shells, quills, and feathers to create artifacts of great beauty and originality. Trade routes spanning North and Central America brought sacred and valued items such as shells, parrot feathers, and semi-precious stones to tribes distant from their sources.
For example, copper bells, shells and parrot feathers from Central America have been found at Chaco Canyon in northern New Mexico. Some anthropologists believe that a workshop producing turquoise beads for trade existed at the Chaco complex.
When trade beads were introduced, Native craftspeople quickly saw that their arts could be enriched by these colorful glass beads. Over the years, trade beads have been used to enhance traditional designs and to decorate everything from clothing to ceremonial objects. With time the skill of beading was passed on to tribes across the continent.
Today, museums and collectors across the United States recognize and collect quality Native American beadwork by contemporary artists. Many artists now give this traditional craft a unique look by combining old and new. They may use beads in new ways, or combine new glass beads with antique beads and natural gemstones. Coyote's Game is proud to offer a sampling of both traditional and modern Native American beadwork.
Coyote's Game offers a wide selection of Native American beaded jewelry and items from tribes across the United States. Browsing through our beadwork section will show you many different styles of beadwork-from lane stitching to peyote stitch to loomed bead work, in both modern and traditional patterns.
Our beaded earrings include work by recognized Kewa-Creek-Seminole artist LeJune Chavez. We have beaded pyramid earrings, tassel earrings, loop earrings, dream catcher earrings and many more.
If you're looking for a beaded hat band, Coyote's Game is the place to start. We offer a large selection of quality loomed hat band in all colors and prices. We also carry one of a kind beaded belts. Our colorful beaded bracelets are made by Native artists from across the country. Visit our beaded necklaces section for bead work necklaces and medallions.
There are beaded barrettes and hair ornaments, unique purses and pouches from skilled beaders of many different tribes as well as unusual beaded items such as beaded lanyards, key holders and dream catchers.
The charm of Native American beadwork is in the brilliant colors and the sparkle or shine any light casts on smooth or faceted beads. Unfortunately, computer imaging doesn't yet have the quality to capture the depth of color or the sparkle. We ask our visitors to use their imaginations when looking at the beadwork in this section. Make the colors deeper. Make them glow and sparkle and you'll know what these items really look like.
All of the items in this section are made by individuals or families and are mostly one of a kind, since this is part of the American Indian crafts tradition. We are happy to answer any questions you may have about individual items, and, on request, to provide more, or larger pictures of one or two items.
We encourage you to email us with any questions you may have about our merchandise.

I'm not going to bring this up anymore, i've beat it to death.
I'm not sayin' that they invented "rock n roll". Clearly they didn't. I'm not sayin' they are the best band ever (although they are).
All i'm sayin' is that Beatlemania was about way more than the music ... they changed the entire culture of the world 180 degrees that enabled much of what followed to happen.
'nuff said about that topic.

The Creator has put the seasons in order, even as He set the moon and stars in the heavens. In Genesis 1:14, the biblical writer noted, "And God said, 'Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years.'"We are in the process of observing the change of the season. In the springtime, the earth was awakening and we were surrounded by many tiny blooms, such as the bluets, henbits and bloodroots.
As the March winds subsided, a new set of wildflowers appeared that had developed longer stems, such as cat's ears, toadflax and oxeye daisies.
As the days grew longer, the earth grew warmer and another set of wildflowers burst into bloom: buttercups, blue flags, passion flowers, and the many clovers.
In early summer, as the rains began to diminish, along came the butterfly weeds, trumpet creepers, and St. Andrew's crosses.
Now as we approach September, we must turn our attention to the transition to late summer. At this time last summer we studied St. Andrew's cross, yellow daisy, bur-marigold and tickseed sunflower.
Today, we turn our attention to another late summer wildflower, the false foxglove.FALSE FOXGLOVE
Agalinis fasciculataThe yellow bloom of this wildflower looks much like the true foxglove but it is smaller and the throat is shorter. The plants are distinctly different with this species being widely branched and growing up to 3 feet tall. The true foxglove has a heavy central stem with short branches on which the flowers sprout.
Look for false foxglove from July to September in well drained soil. The leaves are smaller than the flowers and are shaped like the head of a lance.
Since they like their feet dry, roadsides and embankments are good places to find a plant or two. They do not like acidic soils so you should ignore the pine thickets and watch where the hardwoods are plentiful, especially the oaks.
False foxglove is not rare in the botanical sense of being endangered. But, they are not easy to spot since there are many yellow wildflowers that bloom together in mid and late summer.
Next week we will examine bittersweet. In the Appalachians and northward this is a very common wildflower, however, it is much less common this far south.
The fall season is about 30 days off. Summer's 90-degree weather will yield to "cooler" temperatures. I'm thankful that we can depend on the change in seasons (Genesis 1:14).
