You can add Jeff Beck's name to the list of major artists prepping new studio albums for 2014.
The following news item recently appeared on Beck's redesigned website:
"After taking a very short, well-earned break post his recent tour with Brian Wilson, Jeff has been spending most of his time with his new band in the studio. We won't say too much at present. Suffice to say — Watch this space — It will be Epic!!!"
The band in question is Rhonda Smith (bass), Lizzie Ball (violin), Jonathan Joseph (drums) and Nicolas Meier (guitar). The can see the whole gang in the photo to the left.
The new, still-unnamed release will be Beck's first studio album since 2010′s successful Emotion & Commotion, which peaked just outside the Top 10 on Billboard's albums chart. The album featured his cover of a Puccini aria, "Nessun Dorma," which earned Beck a Best Pop Instrumental Performance Grammy.
Beck has been busy of late. As mentioned above, he recently completed a tour with Beach Boys legend Brian Wilson and is featured on Wilson's still-upcoming album. According to Beck, the album has "the flavor of Pet Sounds. Once you hear it, you'll be whistling the songs for the rest of your life." Beck plays guitar on several tracks.
Beck also appears on Fun on Earth, the recently released album by Queen drummer Roger Taylor. He plays on "Say It's Not True," which you can hear below. The track is Taylor's remake of the first Queen studio single to feature Paul Rodgers on vocals. The song, which was written by Taylor, was originally released in 2007 to benefit Nelson Mandela's AIDS foundation.

Holly's* story in her own words
My name is Holly Rudman* and I am 24 years old. I live in beautiful Cape Town and work in a really fast-paced, exciting, yet extremely stressful, industry.
In 2012, after a hectic week at work, I raced home on a Friday night to get dressed into a pretty dress and hit the town with the girls. I raced through the door and into the shower. After I jumped out the shower I found myself staring into my full length mirror – paralysed. My naked self unable to move. A realisation hit me at the speed of G-force – I was so overweight!
How had I missed this? How could my 24-year-old self, be this overweight? In that moment, in front of that mirror my 24-year-old heart shattered into a million pieces. With no exaggeration to this story, I dropped to the floor and sobbed.
I cried because I was ashamed, I couldn't believe I had done this to myself. How could I be so bubbly and happy around all my friends and family but be so sad within myself? This new realisation petrified me, I was so afraid about what this would mean for my future. I needed to change, and quickly.
I put my pyjamas on, cancelled on my girlfriends and got straight into bed. I may have gone to bed very upset that night, but little did I know that I was in for the greatest journey and wildest ride of my life so far.
I decided to do four things on that Saturday morning.
1) Do a massive grocery shop to introduce routine and food planning into my life.
2) I went and joined the gym.
3) Did a lot of research and found a life coach.
4) Bought a diary and began documenting my journey (This was incredible and I am still writing in this journal today.)
Monday came and I was raring to go. I met with my life coach for the first time and we decided that all I needed to do was take this journey week by week. Looking at what I needed to do as a collective would make this process seem impossible. So if I only focused on a week at a time I could do it. We would make weekly incentives. For example, if I worked really hard in a week I was allowed to go out and buy a pair of gorgeous new heels.
It was in this grocery shop that I first bought Herbex Slimmer's Tea: Fat Burn and haven't stopped buying it ever since. After a month, the results were amazing – I'd only lost about 1.5kg's, but I felt amazing. So amazing that I decided I needed to give up the one thing I possibly love the most – wine. Don't worry I only challenged myself to do this for a month – any longer would have been madness. I went from the drunken socialite amongst my friends to the designated driver. I made a decision that "no alcohol" wouldn't mean "no fun" and would make sure to be at all the parties with my glass of water in hand.
I told strangers I was drinking g&ts – because who likes a party pooper drinking water while you're drinking too much wine. The tactic seemed to work, and I found myself dancing the night away without a care in the world.
Giving up alcohol took my weight loss to a whole new level. It just started falling off – granted I was gyming 5 times a week. When I started at the gym, I had no idea what I was doing. I also didn't have enough money for a personal trainer, so I would watch what personal trainers were doing with their clients and then I would copy their routines.
With my new bod came a new confidence and ultimately a new man. I fell in love with a gorgeous man who made me feel like the most beautiful girl he'd ever seen, but not even he could have known what I'd gone through to become the person he found "beautiful". Not all adventures are forever, and soon I was single Holly again! Yikes, a sore heart deserves ice cream – surely? Not this time! I got back in that gym faster than you could say Mcflurry, and kicked my butt into overdrive.
This entire journey has taught me that I don't have to be strong all the time, I've learnt that to be great, it doesn't mean you're not allowed to be sad sometimes. Greatness comes from pushing forward and learning how to dance in the rain.
Today, 28 September, I have lost a total of 13 kg.
This is no comparison to the incredible ladies who lose 40+ kg, but losing these 13 kg's has been the most difficult thing I have ever done in my life, and I really hope if you're reading this and feel like this journey isn't possible for you – that you remember my story and know that if I can do it – anyone can. It just takes a conscious decision do give up what you want right now for the life you really want one day.
My body shape has completely changed and my back and hips are no longer in pain due to the extra weight I was carrying. I wake up in the mornings at 6:00am with energy – and hit the gym. Before this life change I would sleep till 8:00am and then race off to work to be there by 8:30am.
Everything has changed, I've changed, my dreams have changed – I had no idea that there was a better life waiting out there for me. I want this life for all girls my age. I'm not saying it's perfect – by no means, but it's hopeful and it's filled with opportunities I would never have been exposed to before.
Life will break your heart for many different reasons, but I can assure you a heart will mend – if you don't take care of your body, it might not be as lucky. I can't thank Herbex enough for being such a positive part of my journey. Not only your products, but your staff, your website and your online eating plans. Thank you for being a positive force in a very hard but uplifting journey. Never give up – it really is that simple.
Beautiful location, beautiful people, and the result - beautiful photos!
Well done, Holly*.
We are very proud of you! You did it through hard work and determination. You are an inspiration to all of us.

Fishing report: Yough River anglers doing well on trout
TribLIVE Sports Videos
• Anglers fishing the Yough River between West Newton and Smithton have been "hammering" trout, according to Frank Berarducci of Youghiogheny Canoe Outfitters. The fish have been hitting most consistently for those fishing with nightcrawlers from boats, he said.
• Trout anglers also have been doing well on Loyalhanna Creek, with the area around Sleepy Hollow and Kingston Dam getting lots of pressure. Maggots, wax worms, meal worms and spinners all have been taking fish.
• The last of the ice is finally gone from High Point Lake, though fishing pressure has been light in recent days.
• Anglers fishing the Allegheny River near pool 8 in Templeton have reported catching northern pike and muskies in recent weeks, according to a Fish and Boat Commission report. One 50-inch musky was reportedly caught and released.
• Anglers on Slippery Rock Creek have been doing well since opening day of trout season, according to multiple reports. Fish have been hitting on Rooster Tails and live baits such as maggots and meal worms.
• The trout fishing was slow at Laurel Hill Lake on opening weekend, according to reports. Anglers have gotten some fish in the days since, though.
• Lake Oneida has seen a few fishermen targeting crappies. Catches have only been so-so, however.
• Crappie anglers have been doing a little better at Washington County's Cross Creek Lake. Minnows and jigs have been taking fish.
• Mammoth Dam has been giving up some trout, as well as a fair number of panfish. Most of the latter have been on the small side.
• At Virgin Run Dam, anglers have been getting trout in decent numbers, according to multiple reports. Powerbait has been taking many of the fish. Maggots have also reportedly been an effective bait.
• North Park Lake has seen good crowds of fishermen, including many in boats, who have been taking trout.

Fishman artists Grace Potter & The Nocturnals released their fourth album "The Lion The Beast The Beat" on June 12. During the release, GPN ventured out on "Beast Week" where they appeared on ABC's Good Morning America as well as late show staple Conan. Fans of modern cooking shows no doubt caught Grace on ABC's The Chew where she "mixed" it up with Rockstar chef Michael Symon. After the fun on The Chew, the band did a signing and an acoustic set at Best Buy in Union Square in New York City. Last but certainly not least, the week was rounded up by a stunning performance on VH1's Storytellers. On Storytellers, the band performed new material like the "Never Go Back" and fan favorites like "Paris" and "Medicine."
Grace Potter & The Nocturnals are currently on a US tour sharing the stage with her duet partner Kenny Chesney and country legend Tim McGraw. On tour, Grace and the band had their acoustic guitars equipped with Fishman Matrix Infinity and Rare Earth pickups. Aura Spectrum DIs made the journey on the road as well and proved to be a perfect match for the band's acoustic needs.
The summer of 2012 is will be one to remember for Grace Potter & The Nocturnals. Fishman couldn't be happier to be along for the ride… and The Beat!
Watch this clip of GPN performing acoustic at Best Buy in NYC!
Here's a link to the band on the VH1 Storytellers in June.

Beyond that no glass or plastic cups in bathroom and also broken towel rail - just the screws in wall!. And the loo seat scratched so could harbour germs. room tiny and dark due to dark wallpaper. Bed linen not of great quality. I only stayed as last resort as Worthing very busy that week. Granted I only saw room 6 but for me ridiculously overpriced and to be avoided at any price. And I hate trains so train prints everyone added nothing

great room but a bit noisy
The hotel is packed with art nouveau everywhere you look, a real treat.
The room was huge and so pretty. Breakfast in the lovely conservatory was everything you expect. We had to ask for service in the bar when we checked in, but were quickly given our room key. The one downside is the noise from the pub below and the street noise that carries up into the room. A good value choice for somewhere to lay our heads for the night and good location. I'm glad I booked it over some of the budget hotels for the character and breakfast alone.

Timothy Nigel Peake (born 7 April 1972 in Chichester, West Sussex) is a former British Army Air Corps officer and a current European Space Agency astronaut.[1] He is the first British citizen to be selected as an astronaut by ESA. Peake began ESA's intensive astronaut basic training course in September 2009 and graduated on 22 November 2010.[2]
Early education[edit]
Peake studied at the Chichester High School for Boys, leaving in 1990 to attend the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst.[3]
Military and aeronautical[edit]
Upon graduation from Sandhurst in 1992, Peake served as a platoon Commander with the Royal Green Jackets.[4] Peake became a qualified helicopter pilot in 1994 and a qualified flight instructor in 1998. In 2005, he graduated from the Empire Test Pilots School and was awarded the Westland's Trophy for best rotary wing student. Peake completed a BSc(Hons) in flight dynamics and evaluation at the University of Portsmouth the following year.[5] Peake left the army in 2009 after 17 years of service and over 3000 flying hours to his credit, becoming a test pilot with AgustaWestland.[6][7]
Peake beat over 8,000 other applicants for one of the six places on the ESA's new astronaut training programme. The selection process included taking academic tests, fitness assessments and several interviews.[8] Peake moved to Cologne with his family for the ESA training.[9]
If successful, Peake would become the first Briton to fly into space without a private contract (Helen Sharman) or American citizenship (Michael Foale, Piers Sellers and Nicholas Patrick).[10]
On 16 April 2012, NASA announced that Peake would serve as an aquanaut aboard the Aquarius underwater laboratory during the NEEMO 16 undersea exploration mission, scheduled to begin on 11 June 2012 and last twelve days.[11][12] The NEEMO 16 crew successfully "splashed down" at 11:05 am on 11 June.[13] On the morning of 12 June, Peake and his crewmates officially became aquanauts, having spent over 24 hours underwater.[14] The crew safely returned to the surface on 22 June.[15]
During Expedition 44 Timothy Peake served as a backup astronaut for Soyuz TMA-17M spaceflight.[16][17]
Peake is scheduled to be going to the International Space Station (ISS), on December 15th 2015, for Expeditions 46 and 47.[18] He will launch on board Soyuz TMA-19M. The official website dedicated to his mission is http://principia.org.uk/.
International Space Station partnership and the Nobel Peace Prize[edit]
At the UK National Student Space Conference in early 2014, Peake expressed his support for the initiative to award the International Space Station partnership the Nobel Peace Prize. "I was delighted to read about the International Space Station and the discussions about it being nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize because… it has been one of the most incredible international partnerships...[The ISS] really has brought many nations together through difficult times, and continues to do so." Peake noted that with increasing constraints on space programs around the world, collaborative initiatives such as ISS will be necessary for future endeavours. "I think [the ISS] really has to be the model for future space exploration because with budgets becoming more and more constrained, then, really one nation is not going to have the capability to expand exploration out into the solar system, to Mars and beyond. We are going to have to work together on projects."[19]

One of my rods broke on my 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7L and tore up the engine. Took the Jeep to them on April 29. They got in a Jasper engine and it took them around 12 weeks to figure out why it wouldn't start. They had to have another Auto Service with verification from the Chrysler dealer tell them Jasper sent them the wrong engine. When they got the right one, was ready in 3 days. These guys are good for simple repairs. Complicated expensive repairs, not recommended. They had all kinds of excuses whey they couldn't get the motor to work. It was ridiculous.

(Sorry for the inconvenience)
Once you select "Yes" to start the installation, a progress screen, seen in Figure 3.5a, provides a progress bar and messages so that you can watch the installation's progress.
How long the installation takes depends upon the speed of your hardware, the installation type you selected, and the number of components to be installed. A typical installation takes between 15 and 30 minutes.

Astonishing Science. Spectacular museum.
Read about the artwork
Sen Man Na Yu Ta (image Andreas Schmidt)
Air (image Andreas Schmidt)
Location: Challenge of Materials gallery, first floor
Kyoko Kumai uses mass-produced man-made steel wire to create sculptures which when woven, twisted or bundled together take on an organic appearance. Steel is a material ordinarily associated with toughness and strength, but by manipulating steel in an unexpected way Kumai overthrows preconceptions of the material's qualities.
Suggesting growth in nature and taking on an uncharacteristic organic appearance, stainless steel sculpture Sen Man Na Yu Ta spreads across the wall of the Challenge of Materials gallery, atmospherically enveloping space and light. Kumai's work gives the impression of a sense of weightlessness, as the steel swirling fibres seem to be as light and fragile as silk threads - even though the sculpture weighs 30 kg.
Air by Kyoko Kumai is also in the Science Museum's collection but no longer on display.
Inspired by the traditions of weaving and working by hand, Japanese artist Kyoko Kumai (born 1943) has been creating sculptures made from stainless steel wire since 1976.

Left to their own devices, most employees will carry around one smartphone for both business and personal use. It's much easier than carrying around two separate handhelds; and it's less confusing than managing two different phone numbers.
Many organizations just accept this fact and let workers use company-provided phones for personal use. The cost is relatively small, and it shows the company appreciates its employees. Besides, fighting this trend is like trying to push water uphill. Forward-thinking companies go with the flow and actually make it work in their favor.
Some enterprises take it from the opposite angle: they let people use the personal device they already have for work. Or they might give employees an allowance and let them go to the store and buy the handset they like.
Often the features you get on the consumer-purchased device surpass those on hardware intended for enterprise use. And employees frequently find consumer software that is better than that provided by the enterprise. This means employees become "prosumers" (professional users who buy like consumers) -- a fact that's not lost on device manufacturers, who actually identify prosumers as a market segment.
With so many kinds of devices, how can any organization commit to supporting more than just a relatively small set? After all, there are different form factors, which means input is different and the screen is different. There are different operating systems, and several versions of each. The challenge is daunting.
Here are three key guidelines to help companies tackle these challenges.
1. Find Simple Ways To Support Basic Apps
> Basic Email and PIM are among the easiest functions to support across different device types. Virtually all smartphones come with a local email client, and whether you are using Microsoft Exchange or Lotus Notes, you can easily switch on options on your email servers to make mail accessible to mobile users.
Beware: As soon as you start allowing company email on mobile devices, you have to think about data encryption. And if you want more sophisticated features, such as the ability to download and view attachments or access to more advanced calendar functions, you'll need more specialized client software.
> Job-specific applications are less easy to support across device types. While you'll want to be open to supporting a large number of device types for email, for employees requiring specific applications, such as CRM, you need more control over which handsets can be used.
Beware: Java does a good job of allowing basic applications to run on multiple platforms, but is not a cure all. Handsets still have different screen sizes and input features. And anytime you have an application that needs to invoke device-specific functions (such as getting location information), it cannot be completely platform independent. Java can be slow, so you should check carefully to make sure any Java-based application runs fast enough for you.
> Accessing all mobile applications through a browser is an attractive idea, but there are many pitfalls. Making your applications web centric is one of the first approaches companies think of to become device agnostic. It's not that easy.
Beware: Browsers require ubiquitous network coverage, which you won't get, and the user experience for apps needing constant connectivity can be painful. Even on a desktop, every browser renders content differently. On a handheld, the variation is wilder because there are so many form factors.
2. Be Realistic About Your Mission-Critical Apps
> For mission-critical mobile applications, you'll need automatic backup and restore functions and you'll need to be able to quickly provision devices. Make a clear distinction between users of mission-critical mobile applications and the rest of the company.
Beware: You'll want to limit the acceptable device types to a very small number. It would be costly to keep a lot of different types of replacement handhelds in inventory and maintain the expertise to support them all in the field.
> Specialized devices should be the exception to the rule allowing employees to use the same handset for business and personal use. Some mobile apps require specialized hardware. For example, people working in rough environments need ruggedized devices. It makes no sense to allow personal use of these handhelds.
Beware: You'll want to allow some email functions for dispatches or other notifications. Make distinct email accounts accessible on such hardware.
3. Never, Ever Underestimate Security
> Security functions need to run on all devices where private data will be stored. Don't allow data to be stored on any handheld that doesn't provide data encryption.
Beware: You don't need to encrypt everything. Doing so would slow down the handset and use the battery more quickly. You need to be able to configure what gets encyrpted, but don't leave configuration of such features to the user.
> You'll need a device management platform to enforce security policy and set up configuration so users don't have to. If you expect users to set up the proper security on their handhelds, you're in for a nasty surprise. For users doing anything more than making phone calls and performing simple data operations that don't require security, you need to manage their devices.
Beware: The device management platform you choose will limit the kinds of handhelds you support. To support a wide range of handsets, consider using more than one kind of device management platform.

GM last month recalled 2.6 million small cars because their ignition switches can move from the "run" to the "accessory" or "off" position, which causes the car to stall and disables the air bags and power steering. GM says the recall is linked to 13 deaths. The recall includes the Chevrolet Cobalt, Chevrolet HHR, Pontiac G5, Pontiac Solstice, Saturn Ion and Saturn Sky from the 2003-2011 model years.
Congress is investigating why GM didn't recall the cars sooner, because it first found problems with the ignition switches in 2001. It's also questioning federal regulators from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, who didn't investigate the cars despite evidence of a problem.
GM CEO Mary Barra and NHTSA Administrator David Friedman are scheduled to appear Tuesday before a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee. A separate Senate hearing is scheduled for Wednesday.
The House memo provides new details about GM's consideration—but ultimate rejection—of potential solutions.
According to the memo, GM engineers met in February 2005 to consider making changes to the ignition switch after reports it was moving out of position and causing cars to stall.
In May 2005, the company's brand quality division requested a new investigation into ignitions turning off while driving, and a new review suggests changing the design of the key so it wouldn't drag down the ignition. That proposal was initially approved but later cancelled.
In a statement released Sunday, GM said it deeply regrets the events that led to the recall.
"We are fully cooperating with NHTSA and the Congress and we welcome the opportunity to help both have a full understanding of the facts," the company said.

Do we stay or do we go?
A surprising question that a lot of home owners are finding that they are asking themselves right now.
Do you truly need to move right now or are you looking for a change?
If change is the answer, here are a couple of small change suggestions that make a huge impact:
Change the colors - We all spend most of our time in our kitchen and bath areas so it makes sense to focus on those areas first. Small changes in the kitchen and bath can make a dramatic impact. By simply applying a new paint color and updating hardware, you, the homeowner can transform the look and feel of a room. Consider adding a touch of warmth by using a soft finish with an elegant appearance such as brushed bronze.
Change the hardware - When selecting new hardware find a finish that adds a contrast to your current cabinets. The hardware is the jewelry for your cabinets so it should stand out.
Swap out the backsplash - For the kitchen it may also be a good time to add the backsplash that you have always wanted. Drama does not need to cost a ton. Find a texture that really compliments your personal taste. Try something new. How about weathered barn wood for an old world feel.
Stainless steel can be a real industrial show stopper for a more modern feel. No matter your taste simple changes can satisfy your hunger change.

Family sentenced in attack
October 26, 2011
Three members of a Brandon Township family have been sentenced in relation to an attack on local teenagers, with the father to serve jail time, while the son and his mother received probation.
Bryan Hanley, 44, was sentenced Oct. 19 by Sixth Circuit Court Judge Wendy L. Potts to 305 days in the Oakland County Jail. He will receive credit for six days served. On his release he will serve three years probation and must complete an anger management course. Hanley pleaded guilty Sept. 12 to two counts of assault with intent to commit great bodily harm less than murder. In exchange for his plea, two charges of assault with a deadly weapon were dismissed.
His son, Aaron Hanley, 18, was sentenced Oct. 12 by Potts to three years probation as part of the Holmes Youthful Training Act. He must also pay restitution. Aaron Hanley pleaded guilty Sept. 7 to one count of felonious assault and one count of malicious destruction of property, less than $1,000.
Aaron Hanley's mother, Cheryl Kempf, 41, was sentenced Sept. 29 by 52-2 District Court Judge Joseph Fabrizio to 12 months probation after she pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of disorderly person.
According to police reports, on April 30, a 19-year-old man from Holly and 18-year-old man from Clarkston contacted Aaron Hanley and said they wanted to meet him at the Ortonville Village Skate Park to talk to him about a 16-year-old Clarkston boy Aaron Hanley had beaten the day before. The 18- and 19-year-olds arrived with several young women. Aaron Hanley met them with several teens as well as his girlfriend, and suggested they go to Bloomer Park #3 on State Park Road because the Skate Park is patrolled regularly by police and no one is allowed in the park after closing time.
Both groups drove to the state park, and prior to their arrival, Bryan Hanley and Cheryl Kempf were contacted and drove to the park in their white minivan.
When the Clarkston group arrived and drove to the back of the park, Aaron and Bryan Hanley blocked the exit with their vehicles to prevent escape by the Clarkston teens.
Witnesses told police Bryan Hanley jumped out of the minivan and brandished a large wrench. He called the 18-year-old Clarkston man, who is black, a racial slur before striking him with the wrench. When he was on the ground, he was again beaten with the wrench, fists and feet until he was able to get up to flee. At that time, Bryan Hanley threw the wrench at him.
Aaron Hanley got out of the car he was in and wielded a wooden bat, with which he struck the 19-year-old Holly man in the head and then proceeded to punch and kick the victim while he was on the ground.
Cheryl Kempf punched one of the girls from Clarkston in the face, then ordered the pitbull terrier that she and Bryan Hanley had brought with them to attack the victims. The pitbull chased the victim that Aaron Hanley struck in the head to his car. The man was able to get in a car without being attacked by the dog.

Matt Hajacos is the chef at Sam & Zoe's. / Submitted
Matt Hajacos
Chef at Sam & Zoes, 525 Heather Place, Nashville
www.samandzoes.com, 615-385-2676
Sam & Zoes, one of Nashvilles first coffee houses, welcomes diners into its homey shop with farm-fresh eggs, house-made soups, sandwiches on freshly baked breads and more.
We caught up with chef Matt Hajacos just before his honeymoon to talk about his love for cooking and some of his favorite things.
How did you learn to cook?
I learned to cook through my experience in the restaurant industry in high school and college. My internal need to be creative fed my interest to learn more about culinary arts. Of course, at first it was a way to make a living, but years later, I realized my love for the art of creating the perfect dish. I think my learning to cook will always be a work in progress. Its boring to think you know everything. Ill always remain curious and will forever be in a state of educating myself.
How did you make your way to Sam & Zoes?
I worked for Star Bagel for three years. The owner, Michael Miller, owned Sam & Zoes at the time and transferred me to manage the store. Four months later, he sold Sam & Zoes to his sister-in-law (Carma Woodard). She is the current owner and the greatest person Ive ever worked for.
What is your favorite ingredient at the moment?
Cilantro is one of my favorite ingredients. Unfortunately, its too often restricted to Mexican food. Its a wonderful way to combine sweet and savory in any cuisine.
What could we always find in your refrigerator at home?
You can always find Sriracha in the fridge. Its a great ingredient to give a kick to sauces. Honey mustard, ranch, etc. Theyre all great with Sriracha.

text: The Grand Slambovians are a Hudson Valley-based band who emerged from the misty hills of Sleepy Hollow. Since their creation in 1998, as Gandalf Murphy and the Slambovian Circus of Dreams, the four-piece have unfolded soft-loud landscapes overflowing with pensive earnestness. Performing an extensive and dynamic repertoire of music with cover tunes that span several decades of classic rock & roll, the band are sometimes described as "Hillbilly Pink Floyd." These guys are an Eighth Step favorite and always pack a gunny sack full of surprises. (Oct. 13, 7:30 PM, $26, 432 State St., Schenectady, 434-1703)

We entered in the house with hands in hands and laughing loud as my boyfriend had told me a really funny and naughty joke. We entered and I was not scared of anyone at my home because my mom and dad were out and they were coming tomorrow evening so I had this whole time from now 1 pm to 9 pm and then next tomorrow morning to evening.
I said 1 pm to 9 pm and I know what you guys thinking about, you are thinking "what about night?". Well we don't spend nights together and I am not saying that we don't spend night together but do sex. Actually we both are virgin and I think its good. I am 17 and he is 18 and we were just seeing each other from past 7 months.
Sometimes I thought to let him take my virginity when we kiss in the car or in my house and he did try to do more like cupping my breast, feeling them and asking me to feel his hard on. I let him do that sometimes but we never get naked in front of each other and never touched each other's naked body or any body parts.
But I also can't deny that after feeling his manhood when I get back I wonder how it looks like and how big it would be exactly. Fingering myself thinking about him was like my weekly thing but from few days it turned out to be like daily thing. I started thinking about sex more and also thinking about to let me get into my bed.
So back to present we entered in the house and our lips locked, we were kissing and his hands were moving on my back while my hands were just around his body hugging him tightly.
His hands were moving from my neck to my waist, sometimes I felt his hands moving over my hips although I was wearing jeans and cotton black panties but his touch on my hips was making me hot.
I didn't know when we entered in our living room and he was on top of me on the couch and we were still kissing. Now I could feel his hard cock pressing on my pelvis.
I started to push him away a little when I felt his hands going under my top through my neck line of the top.
"Stop, stop" I said pushing him away but he was heavy and it was hard to push him away. Hi again started kissing me on my neck and going down on my cleavage.
"Adam, Please" I said again.
"I love you and we are not doing anything wrong

Knoxville Baseball Loses To Norwalk
Posted By Sports On June 30, 2011 @ 6:01 am In Today's Local Sports | Comments Disabled
Knoxville fell to Norwalk in baseball last night 8-0. The Panthers were only allowed four hits by Warrior pitching. Coach Steve Mott was not totally displeased. He said the overall play was better than Monday night's double header against Newton. Knoxville now falls to 10-12 on the season and 7-9 in the conference with a double header against Pella coming up on Friday.

Some church members in Central City no longer have a building where they can worship. Monday afternoon, the St. James AME Zion Church, couldn't hold services because the building was too hot.
Fire officials say a faulty furnace is to blame for a fire that broke out during the afternoon and gutted the 83-year-old building. Members of the congregation already have plans in the works to rebuild.

It's not perfect, but I love how native came out. even with the tweaks I'm thinking of making it'll be that 20-30 second interstitial sweet spot. Also perhaps more than any other tiny film Hisa and I have made (that's her voice again) Native has more potentially good variants based on sound and score. I think this one gives off a contemplative, introverted and ethereal feeling. I like that, but we could also run energetic and electric or otherworldly and impossible, or aggressive and rebellious. I might throw some variants up, maybe even using some of Hisa's other line readings. Version 2 with credits is going up on my site and probably here later, but I may wait for a slightly later version.
(also, "It's not perfect"? C'mon, me, nothing's EVER perfect, that's how you can tell they're actually things)

Rod Verdeen, attorney for Rachel Jeantel, 19, the prosecution's key witness in the George Zimmerman's murder trial, says that the experience has been traumatic for her, but not as traumatic as losing her close friend:
Trayvon was one of the few guys, okay, and this is what, I mean, this ripped, tore my heart apart. She said he was one of the few guys that never made fun of me, about the way I dressed, about the way I talked, about my hair, about my complexion, you know, about my weight.
As previously reported by NewsOne, Jeantel was the last person to speak with Martin on the night of February 26, 2012, 5 minutes before he was gunned down by George Zimmerman, 29.
See Jeantel's complete testimony below:
In addition to the usual racists, some "concerned" Black people have taken to social media to voice disgust at her inability to code-switch and her "ghetto" demeanor. They have also ridiculed her skin color and weight, in addition to laughing at her inability to read and write cursive English — even though Creole and Spanish are her first languages.
