The Browns don't have a lot of veteran players, but two of them pulled veteran moves on Thursday night.
Quarterback Jason Campbell, 31, experienced flu symptoms and kicker Shayne Graham, 35, came down with a sore back.
The two oldest players on the roster were late scratches before the Browns mopped up their exhibition schedule with a skeletal crew against the Chicago Bears.
And their fill-ins turned out to be the stars for the Browns in an unlikely 18-16 victory in the 10th annual JV finale between these clubs.
Playing the whole game, Brian Hoyer (24 of 35) passed for 307 yards and led two scoring drives in the fourth quarter. And punter Spencer Lanning, subbing for Graham, made a 40-yard field goal with 3:15 to go for the game-winner. Lanning also had a 32-yard field goal after missing from 41 on his first try.
They were Lanning's first field-goal attempts since his senior year at South Carolina in 2011.
"Spencer Lanning, you've got to give it to him," coach Rob Chudzinski said with a laugh. "I told him you never know what you'll have to do when you come to work. I knew he'd make that last kick."
Prior to the scratches, Chudzinski gave the night off to 23 starters or key role players. With Brandon Weeden being protected and Campbell sick, Hoyer had to play the whole game at quarterback. He needed the work.
Hoyer tossed two interceptions, but he pulled his game together and showed some gritty leadership in directing the comeback with third- and fourth-teamers. His 14-yard TD pass to tight end Dan Gronkowski with 6:47 to go drew the Browns close. And then an L.J. Fort fumble recovery on a fumble forced by defensive end Armonty Bryant led to the winning drive.
"That's what you're supposed to do," Hoyer said of his comeback win in adverse circumstances. "When you're out there, you're there to win. You don't just play to play. You play to win. It's good to grind it out."
Hoyer's second interception was intended for David Nelson, who was making his first appearance in a game since tearing an ACL with Buffalo on Sept. 9. Nelson cramped up during the play and trotted off the field with a limp. But he came back and made a catch on the scoring drive. For the game, Nelson had four catches for 54 yards on 10 targets, and also lost his footing twice. He was down after the game.
"I didn't play up to my potential," he said. "We're a week away from the season. I can't afford not to make plays. I kept slipping. I left plays out there. When I get 10 balls thrown to me, I want to come down with 10 balls."
Hoyer hooked up in the early going with Josh Gordon, the only regular starter to play. This was Gordon's non-monetary penance for flunking a drug test in February and drawing a two-game suspension, which takes effect on Monday.
Gordon had receptions of 45 and 32 yards on the only two series he played. The first one – a surprise bomb on the first play of the game – should have been an 84-yard TD, but Hoyer's pass was two yards short and Gordon had to wait for it.
Two plays later, Gordon got knocked off the line of scrimmage and then didn't adjust to Hoyer's throw. It was intercepted – Hoyer's second in 23 pass attempts to that point of limited preseason action.
It's not as if the Browns were outmanned. Bears coach Marc Trestman used third- and fourth-teamers as starters. Jordan Palmer, brother of Carson, put together field goal and touchdown drives in the first half.
Linebacker Quentin Groves looked like Lawrence Taylor against this competition. But other Browns backups didn't fare as well, and one of note was cornerback Leon McFadden, who started.
McFadden was beat twice on one play by Bears receiver Joe Anderson. He was beat in coverage and then lost the tackle as Anderson turned a short pass into a 37-yard gain. In the third quarter, McFadden let rookie receiver Josh Lenz get behind him for a 40-yard reception.
One Browns defender who made a play was James-Michael Johnson. The second-year linebacker, relegated to third-string in the defensive system change, intercepted a Trent Edwards pass off the hands of tight end Fendi Onobun and ran it in from 23 yards for a touchdown in the third quarter. It was the play that ignited the comeback.
Now Johnson has to sweat out his roster status. He entered the final preseason game listed as co-backup with Tank Carder behind inside linebacker Craig Robertson.
"I can't control the future," Johnson said solemnly. "It's already decided in God's hands."
Chudzinski tried for two after Johnson's TD. Hoyer handed off to Midpark High School's Jamain Cook and Cook was squashed like a bug by unblocked defensive end Aston Whiteside.
Cook had a golden opportunity to open some eyes as the No. 1 kick returner on this night, as Johnson Bademosi was demoted from that job. Cook couldn't break one, however. He had returns of 24, 27, 26, 27 and 29 yards.
The Browns' kicking game, already a concern, was turned asunder by Graham's late scratch because backup kicker Brandon Bogotay was still nursing a groin injury and didn't make the trip. That meant a busy night for the punters.
Besides the two field goals, Lanning had punts of 57 and 47 yards and tried a kickoff. He skied it to the Bears' 11-yard line.
No. 2 punter Colton Schmidt, who was brought in on waivers ostensibly for his kickoff depth, boomed one to the end line in the second half. A penalty forced a re-kick and he blasted the second to the 1-yard line. Schmidt's third kickoff was five yards deep and went as a touchback. He had one punt of 49 yards and held on place-kicks.
Chudzinski was non-commital about the kicking situation. Concerns about Graham's kickoff depth is why the Browns claimed Schmidt. But Lanning's big night complicates the decision.
"We need to check out the whole body of work," Chudzinski said.
He and his staff must reduce the roster to 53 by Saturday.

Nov. 3, 2004--President George W. Bush has won his second term in office after a hard-fought election against Senator John F. Kerry.
What does another four years of the Bush administration mean for small business owners? Surveys of small business owners across the country have overwhelmingly shown support for Bush. TEC International, a CEO group, found that over two-thirds of 1,450 respondents wanted Bush for another four years in a survey conducted in September, and the U.S. Chamber also reported in September that 77% of 1,335 small business owners it surveyed supported Bush.
If Bush does remain true to his words, small business owners should expect to see changes in a few key areas they have declared as important to them during this election year, including healthcare and taxes.
Bush on Healthcare: Bush has proposed a health insurance tax credit for low-income individuals of $1,000 and families of $3,000. He's also proposed enabling small businesses to band together to negotiate lower insurance rates, and supports legislation that would allow small businesses to take advantage of Healthcare Savings Accounts.
Taxes: Bush promises to make the repeal of the death tax permanent. During his first administration, Bush increased the expensing to $100,000, which he supports making this cut permanent and increasing Section 179 expensing.
Legal Reform: Bush supports capping punitive damages for small business, and is a strong advocate for tort reform.
Regulations: Bush believes small businesses should be exempt from the Family Medical Leave Act.

Universal Brings Back The Wolf ManGoon
Universal Pictures went way back in its vault of horror classics will bring back "The Wolf Man". Even better is they have cast Benicio Del Toro to play the lead role. Andrew Kevin Walker has already begun working on the script and Del Toro, Scott Stuber, Rick Yorn, and Mary Parent will produce.
Like the 1941 original that starred Lon Chaney Jr., the new film will be set in Victorian England. Del Toro will play a man who returns from America to his ancestral homeland, gets bitten by a werewolf and begins a hairy moonlight existence.
Walker is going to give the original tale a couple more twists, characters, and plot points to take advantage of all the new visual effects technology. He should have the script in by this spring and they hope to begin shooting after Del Toro finishes up his work on Guerilla. So for now they are planning to begin filming in 2007 with the film coming out in the summer as a 2008 tentpole.

Spain: Abortions in Church-Associated Hospitals Cause "Concern"
Vatican Says Catholic Institutions Are Called to Protect Life
| 4319 hits
BARCELONA, Spain, JUNE 23, 2011 (Zenit.org).- The Vatican is expressing its concern over the relationship between the Archdiocese of Barcelona and several hospitals in the area that continue to carry out abortions.
The Pontifical Council for Health Care Ministry stated this in a letter sent June 6 to Father Custodio Ballesteros, a priest of the archdiocese, who had sent a report last month detailing the number of abortions that are being performed in hospitals that are associated to the Church, and the lack of response by the Archdiocese of Barcelona.
"The Pontifical Council for Health Care Ministry is conscious of the challenge faced especially by Catholic hospitals, as they are called to protect and defend human life in the midst of a culture of death," the letter states, which was signed by the council's undersecretary, Msgr. Jean-Marie Mupendawatu.
"The situation of some hospitals of Catalonia in relation to abortion," illustrated by Father Ballesteros in an ample dossier given to the dicastery, arouses the concern of "the universal Church," the note added, which was sent on behalf of the dicastery's president, Archbishop Zygmunt Zimowski.
The letter revealed that the health care council had already received information on this situation in Barcelona on other occasions, "and we have had the opportunity to speak with those responsible," it said.
The pontifical council urged the archdiocese "to find out in detail what is happening so that concrete solutions can be found, as soon as possible, to eventual individualized problems."
Saint Paul's Hospital of Barcelona and the General Hospital of Granollers appear in the official register of the Health Ministry as health centers that carried out legal abortions in 2009.
A spokesman of the Archdiocese of Barcelona told ZENIT today that "the hospital's administration has given orders to ... not practice abortions."
Last August, representatives of the Chapter of the Cathedral of Barcelona, a body of clerics formed to advise the archbishop, released a statement saying that the administration has "always manifested themselves in favor of human life from the very moment of conception, and work so that this principle will govern the hospital's conduct."
The communiqué explained that in that hospital of Barcelona, "in keeping with the ethical principles by which it has been inspired since its foundation, voluntary interruptions of pregnancy are not practiced, although, exceptionally, medical circumstances can occur that lead to action that can have as a consequence the loss of the fetus."
And they affirmed that if any of the ethical and moral principles of the Catholic Church -- which in the functioning of that hospital must be respected by agreement -- has been infringed, "appropriate measures will be taken for their compliance."
Represented in equal parts in the administration of St. Paul's Hospital are the archdiocese, the municipality of Barcelona and the Generalitat of Catalonia.
For its part, the Diocese of Terrassa publicly condemned the carrying out of abortions in the Hospital of Granollers and requested that it be a center exempt of these practices.
Msgr. Fidel Catalan, the secretary-general and chancellor of the diocese, told ZENIT that he has "raised a consultation to his superiors," but that he has not received an official answer, nor has he seen a change in behavior.
The vice-president of the six-member Board of the Hospital of Granollers is designated by the St. Esteve Parish of Granollers, which belongs to the Diocese of Terrassa, and the parish's rector also serves on the board.
By Law
According to the Spain's "Organic Law of Sexual and Reproductive Health and Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy," which came into force last July, "the voluntary interruption of pregnancy will be carried out in centers of the public health network or linked to it."
The norm guarantees "all women equal access to the procedure," without restriction up to 14 weeks, and with medical approval up to 22 weeks.
Moreover, the law only provides conscientious objection for individual persons and not for clinics or hospitals.
Father Xavier Pares, the vice-president of the board of the Sant Hospital de La Seu d'Urgell and parish priest, told ZENIT that after the passage of the organic law, some hospitals are receiving more pressure to carry out abortions.
"In a meeting of the board half a year ago, a doctor said that in this hospital abortions were still not carried out, but that in the long-term they will have to be practiced," explained the priest. "I said that we cannot permit this practice in a hospital that is managed by the Church, and all fell silent."
In the management of this regional hospital, the vice-president, the secretary and two members belong to the Church. "We will fight for life to be respected and for abortions not to be carried out," added Father Pares.
Father Ballesteros told ZENIT that he has held conversations in Rome with top Vatican representatives who indicated that if the Church is associated with the management of a hospital, then abortions cannot be carried out there. If abortions are carried out, he added, the Church must withdraw.
The priest said that the Church-associated hospitals could give up public funding to avoid not having to carry out abortions, but that would entail reducing the reach of its hospitals.

Court docs: Terri Horman wants delay in divorce matter
PORTLAND, Ore. - A lawyer representing Terri Horman, the stepmother of missing 7-year-old Kyron Horman, has filed a motion to set aside the divorce matter between Terri and Kyron's father, Kaine Horman, until a later date.
Terri's divorce attorney, Peter Bunch, said in the "motion to abate" document that the divorce proceedings should be set aside until a later date because of the intense scrutiny she's under in the investigation into the disappearance of Kyron.
"As a result of the intense scrutiny, and speculation, it is virtually impossible for me to proceed with divorce-related issues in as I would ordinarily do," Bunch wrote in documents filed in Multnomah County late Wednesday afternoon.
He said the scrutiny comes from relentless media coverage of his client's every move and reports by the media that she is "the center" of the investigation.
Bunch said that Kaine Horman's recent claim that Terri Horman has paid her attorney, Stephen Houze, $350,000 is "grossly misstated."
He also denied that Terri borrowed money to pay Houze. That money "did not come from her funds, and she's not asserting that her attorney fees with Mr. Houze are any sort of marital debt," he wrote.
Bunch also questioned Kaine's claim that he is entitled to half of that money because he doesn't have enough to support himself and his family.
"It is my understanding that (Kaine) is employed at Intel and has a good salary, and that (Kaine) had sufficient savings to fund the cost of his divorce as recently as several weeks ago," Bunch wrote in the court filing.
In contrast, he said Terri has no job and can't get one under the scrutiny she is currently under.
Additionally, Bunch said that Kaine is using the divorce proceedings for purposes other than ending his marriage to Terri.
"It certainly does not serve the interests of either party to have the divorce process complicated by the necessity of dealing with inquiries that would be related to the investigation of (Terri), rather than the divorce," Bunch said.
In the court document Bunch said Terri will agree to give up all marital assets to Kaine.
Legal expert and retired sheriff's captain, Bruce McCain, said the move could help Terri keep financial records secret and keep her from testifying.
"The practical effect of that is that Terri Horman will not have to appear on either the contempt case or on the alleged $350,000," McCain said.
He also said this could prevent prosecutors from using testimony in these civil proceedings against Terri in a criminal investigation.
Two judges and a court clerk said Wednesday the move from Terri's attorney is pretty typical. Motions to abate are often filed to postpone those civil cases when there is a parallel criminal investigation.
Kaine Horman's attorney, Laura Rackner, filed court documents Monday that said Terri Horman told someone in writing that she paid Houze $350,000 to represent her.
Rackner said if Terri borrowed the money and considers them a marital liability, she should pay "one-half" of the money to Kaine to pay his legal costs.
Rackner did not return a phone call seeking comment on Wednesday's court filings.
Kyron Horman, a second-grader, disappeared from Skyline School June 4.
Investigators have not named any suspects or persons of interests in the case and no arrests have been made.
KATU News reporter Thom Jensen contributed to this report.

about g & t
g & t say: Hello world. g & t here. This is our first attempt at blogging, which means that we are at least five years "behind the times". That said, we hope you enjoy reading about our day-to-day adventures, our lifelong journeys, and our passing obsessions.
Here's a little about us … t is an intern at a Philly hospital and g works for a fabulous apparel-and-lifestyle company based in Philadelphia (there aren't many – you could probably figure it out). We've been living in the "City of Brotherly Love" for over nearly-a-decade and love it. The primary motivation for this blog is that we (like everyone in the country) have become fascinated by food and wine; ever since discovering that there's a whole world of edible items that we had never known (we both grew up in Southern Jersey – we have fast food and Italian food – that's it!), we've tried our best to read up on the latest and greatest in food, cook out of our comfort zone, and keep up with the local dining scene. While not all of our adventures have been successful, we've had some great experiences and figured that a blog would be a good way to document them all so that we can look back at (and actually remember) what we've done and where we've been. And if we manage to inspire, entertain, or influence you with any of our ramblings, then that's just icing on the cake.
We will warn you, however, that both of us tend to get distracted by a lot of things unrelated to food, so I'm sure that you'll see some bizarre posts every now and then.

Autism research will get a funding boost if U.S. President Barack Obama has his way. In his budget overview [2] released yesterday, Obama requested $211 million as part of the Department of Health and Human Services budget [3] for the disease
The money would go toward research into causes and new treatments, as well as additional screening, support services, and efforts to raise public awareness. Thanks in part to pressure from Congress, funding for autism work has risen [4] from about $101 million in 2006 to $132 million in 2007 even in a time of tight National Institutes of Health budgets.
The president's 2010 budget proposal urges boosting it further and more quickly than planned—an earlier goal was to hit $210 million in 2011.

DENVER (AP) _ A treacherous mix of rain, snow and ice has snarled traffic and made for a miserable fall weekend across the Rocky Mountain Region.
It also caused Major League Baseball to postpone tonight's playoff game between the Colorado Rockies and the Philadelphia Phillies.
About 2 inches of snow in the Denver area was blamed for hundreds of minor car accidents, plus a more serious pileup on Interstate 25 near Colorado Springs.
The National Weather Service says record low temperatures were
set in many Colorado towns today. The temperature at Denver
International Airport was 17 degrees this morning, 8 degrees below
the record low of 25 degrees set in 1905.
The snow is expected to taper off today, with temperatures bouncing into the low 50s in Denver tomorrow.
Game 3 of the National League Division series has been rescheduled for Sunday night. Game 4 will be Monday and game 5, if necessary, will be played as scheduled on Tuesday in Philadelphia.

"THE CRANBERRY HARVEST, Island of Nantucket"
(Eastman Johnson, 1880) is one of the reasons the Timken has been called one of the "15 great small museums in the world"
Inside, the air is cool and sound seems muffled. Summer's heat fades to memory, and the shrieks of cavorting children are silenced as heavy doors swing shut. Friendly, vigilant guards make sure that security protocol is followed and that drinks will not — cannot — be spilled anywhere near the precious artifacts inside.
Welcome to the Timken Museum of Art, a rare jewel hidden in plain sight in San Diego's Balboa Park. For the past five years, this is where a select group of USD art history students have gathered for an up-close-and-personal upper-division seminar led by the Timken's director of education, Anne Hoehn.
"We're one of the few institutions that allow students to learn about art history by actually sitting in front of the paintings — rather than looking at slides in a lecture hall — which is wonderful," says Hoehn, who's an adjunct professor for the university. "The seminar is an opportunity for them to learn our collection and how it fits into the art world. They learn about all the jobs, from director to registrar to development."
The USD connection is a strong one: The Timken has loaned works to the university in the past, such as the recent exhibit of Russian icons at Founders Hall and the museum's Renaissance masterpieces, as well as items on loan from the permanent collection to the art gallery at the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace & Justice. The museum's executive director, John Petersen '72, attended USD, as did Deputy Director Laurie Hawkins '76 (M.Ed.). And Robert A. Hoehn, the chair of the university's board of trustees, heads the Timken's board of directors.
"John Petersen was one of my art history students at USD," recalls professor emerita Therese Whitcomb. "He was an avid student with a great eye. Since becoming director of the Timken, he's been very generous with his time and has always been available to talk to students."
Graduates of Hoehn's Timken seminar have gone on to be involved with various aspects of the art world, including art conservation and internships with the Vatican and the Boston Museum. Recently hailed as one of the "15 great small museums" in the world by the luxury magazine Golf Connoisseur, the Timken attracts scholars from across the globe who come to study the galleries of Italian, Spanish, French, American Dutch and Flemish works.
"The Timken is analogous to New York's Fricke Collection," Whitcomb says emphatically. "It's very much in that league. It's really one of the finest museums in the world in the strength of its collection."
"You can teach a really solid course with this collection," says Hoehn, who notes that the collection includes the only Rembrandt oil painting on display in San Diego.
"Our goal with USD students is to leave them feeling confident that they can go in any museum in the world and feel comfortable. "And it's important to note that art history aids students in other disciplines as well, including religion, history and philosophy. Each of these paintings is an illustration of history."

December 1, 2015
WASHINGTON (November 9, 2012)--David Petraeus has resigned as director of the CIA after admitting he had an extramarital affair.
According to his letter of resignation, Petraeus asked President Barack Obama Thursday to allow him to resign, and Friday the president accepted.
In a statement, Mr. Obama said the retired general has "made our country safer and stronger."
Petraeus said in a statement that he had shown "extremely poor judgment" in having the affair.
Petraeus has been married for 37 years to Holly Petraeus, whom he met when he was a cadet at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.
The retired four-star general led the military campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan before he took the helm of the CIA in September 2011.
The CIA had no immediate comment.

Excellent review of the Baby K'tan Breeze Baby Carrier! The Baby K'tan Breeze is half mesh half cotton and is designed to be a lighter and cooler carrier; great for the summer months or warmer climates! It can be worn in all the same great wearing positions as the original cotton Baby K'tan Baby Carrier without the hassle of wrapping or tying – it is the baby wrap without all the wrapping!
Julia and baby Jude put this carrier to the test and gave it a thumbs up! The Breeze is comfortable and easy to use like the original cotton Baby K'tan Carrier, yet lighter and more breathable.

Facebook to deeply integrate Spotify music service, others
updated 07:40 am EDT, Mon June 20, 2011
Facebook planning deep social music integration
Facebook is making plans for deep social music integration features in a future development of the platform, according to a report. A key partner in the project will be Spotify, which recently hinted that its subscription music service will soon be launching in the US. However, Facebook is also thought to be reaching out to other music service providers to get them involved too. Gigaom expects that Facebook's music integration plans will be unveiled at its upcoming f8 annual developer conference.
At f8, Facebook is expected to unveil a music platform that integrates its Facebook Connect and Facebook Likes functions. It will feature in the the left-hand column of its site where Facebook will add a new tab called Music. Clicking on this link will open a new page called Music Dashboard.
This page will include a snapshot of the music a user has been listening and from which music service. It will also show top tracks and the number of times they have been played. Of course, users and their friends will also be able to recommend music to each other.
The push into social music is part of Facebook's attempt to continue driving users to its site in order to capitalize on the growing social-powered, e-commerce trend.

Zillow Chief Economist Dr. Stan Humphries appeared on CNBC's "Street Signs" to discuss the newly-released Zillow Rent Index, which tracks rental trends in 276 markets nationwide.
According to Zillow's data, 70 percent of markets saw rent increases this past year, while only 7 percent saw home value increases. In markets like Chicago and Minneapolis rents are up as much as home values are down. This actually good news for the housing market. Stan says, ""While it seems that rents are rising at the expense of home values, the opposite is true. A thriving rental market will stimulate home sales as investors snap up low-priced inventory to convert to rentals."
"We expect 2012 to be a positive year for homes sales and new housing starts… but the rental market is way ahead of that."

NDEP Plain Language Review Process
The NDEP creates a variety of materials to help people learn how to prevent type 2 diabetes or manage diabetes to prevent other health problems. Health-related terms and concepts, especially when it comes to the management of diabetes, can be hard to understand. The NDEP works to create materials that use principles of plain language and health literacy.
About the NDEP Plain Language Icon
Any materials on the NDEP Publications web page that display the "Reviewed for Plain Language Principles" icon (pictured below) have been reviewed for plain language, health literacy, and health numeracy principles. View all publications that have been reviewed for plain language principles.
Reviewed for Plain Language Principles
The NDEP Plain Language Approach
The NDEP's approach to apply principles of plain language in the development of materials include the following steps:
- Materials Assessment – NDEP uses the Suitability Assessment of Materials (SAM) tool
to evaluate materials. The SAM tool helps rate how hard it is to read words and
understand their meaning based on the following criteria:
- Content – Materials have a clear purpose and focus on behaviors that support the objectives of the piece and that the reader can accomplish.
- Literacy Demand – Materials follow plain language principles and the reading level matches the reading skill level of the target audience.
- Graphics and Layout – Graphics and images communicate the main messages or purpose of the content. Fonts are clear and consistent.
- Learning Stimulation and Motivation – Content is meaningful and appealing to the reader. Specific behaviors that audience members can perform are suggested.
- Cultural Appropriateness – Cultural context and concept association are used to make messages relevant, understandable, and meaningful to the audience. When appropriate, NDEP materials are tailored for different ethnic populations and messages are matched to the audience, language, experience, and cultural beliefs of the target audience. Materials use positive and culturally diverse images and symbols.
- Health Numeracy Assessment – NDEP reviews content to find ways to limit or simplify numeric concepts.
- Technical Review – NDEP shares draft materials with subject matter experts who verify the accuracy of scientific information and behavior change messages.
- Readability Testing – NDEP uses the Fry and SMOG readability formulas to assess reading levels of materials.
- Field/Audience Testing – NDEP pretests content, images, and layout of each publication with members of the intended audience.

PHOENIX (AP) - Phoenix Mercury star Diana Taurasi pleaded guilty to a drunken-driving charge stemming from her July arrest.
Taurasi, an all-star guard on the WNBA champions, spent a day in jail after a judge suspended nine days of her sentence.
Taurasi's blood-alcohol level was 0.17 percent when she was pulled over on July 2 following a 93-81 victory over the Seattle Storm. That's more than twice Arizona's legal limit of 0.08 percent.
A police officer who stopped Taurasi's vehicle after seeing it drift outside a traffic lane near downtown Phoenix claims she was driving nearly 20 mph over the 35 mph limit.
While Taurasi pleaded guilty to DUI on Oct. 12, charges of extreme DUI and speeding were dropped.

My wife come out onto the balcony from the bath dressed only in her dressing gown. She sits opposite me and puts her legs on my chair. I stroke her legs, moving further up them until I have pushed her gown apart to reveal her soft round belly and vagina. I ease her thighs open and sta to feel and finger her. She opens her thighs to allow me access to her wet hole. I feel her inside with one then two fingers, curling them inside her, she becomes more and more aroused, til she suddenly gets up from the chair and sits on the floor, back to the wall, thighs wide open and I watch as her vagina opens and closes as she has her orgasm. When it subsides, she lays on the floor, opens her legs as wide as she can and says "take me, do anything you want to me". I take a large handful from the crenfraiche pot on the table and massage it between her legs, I then pick her up and lay her face down over the edge of the table, where I spread her thighs and penetrate her deeply from behind. I thrust into her hot wetness and at the same time I peel her buttocks apart to reveal her tight anal rosebud. I remove my erection from her vagina and place the tip against her anus and push myself against her tightness. She opens slowly and I remove and replace my penis till I have penetrated her tight virgin anus completely. I make love to har bottom till I come, pumping my hot spunk into her bottom. I wait then slowly withdraw to see her anus opened and slowly closing after my penetration. It is her first anal sex, but hopefully not our last.

I love wanking in plastic pants too. feels so good
Incidentally I found that picture attractive only from her waist downwards -- I can't say that breasts "do it" for me. :P
I wouldn't say it makes you anything really, although if i was hard-pressed to give you a category to fit into, I'd say "bi-curious". I'm a little unsure as to what that word actually means (I think it's just someone who's curious about what it's like to be bisexual, instead of someone who actually *is* bisexual and is also curious), but from what I gather it's a something-and-nothing kind of phrase.
I think sexuality is a subjective thing. I identify myself as gay, but I've found women attractive before, and have wanted to have sex with one; so, strictly speaking, I suppose that makes me "bi". But these categories are only to make the world make sense to other people -- and none of them can truely give you an answer. You're the only one who can work yourself out.

RENO, Nev. (AP) — Former Washoe County Sheriff Dennis Balaam (BAY-luhm) has died at the age of 62.
The sheriff's office says Balaam died at his home Tuesday as a result of an ongoing medical condition.
Sheriff Michael Haley said in a statement Wednesday that Balaam was a respected colleague and good friend who made many contributions to the community during his tenure as sheriff from 2000-07. He was the first sheriff in 64 years to come up through the ranks to assume command of the agency.
Among other things, Balaam brought the Amber Alert System to northern Nevada, acquired an armored SWAT vehicle and expanded the county's inmate work programs. He worked in law enforcement for 35 years.
Plans for a memorial service are pending.

The Oakland A's and Los Angeles Angels are both struggling, but now can't avoid the other. They play seven of the next 10 games against each other, starting Friday in Oakland. / Richard Mackson, USA TODAY Sports
OAKLAND â?? Until recently, they were unquestionably the two best teams in baseball, division rivals possibly headed for a showdown for the ages.
Now the Oakland Athletics and Los Angeles Angels have had to shift into survival mode, after different types of losses have brought their superiority into question.
The American League West-leading Angels and the A's still bring the majors' top two records into their three-game weekend series at the O.co Coliseum, the first part of a stretch when they meet seven times in 10 days.
But Oakland, which trails L.A. by two games, stands a mere three percentage points ahead of the Baltimore Orioles and is slogging through by far its worst spell of the season.
The A's have lost eight of their last 10 games and have gone 8-11 since trading away power-hitting left fielder Yoenis Cespedes for left-hander Jon Lester and outfielder Jonny Gomes. In those 19 games they have been held to three runs or less 13 times.
"I feel like we're going to be fine,'' third baseman Josh Donaldson said. "It's definitely going to be an important series for us and they're playing well, and we have a few things we want to clean up. With that being said, we're looking forward to Friday.''
Oakland does have its top three starters lined up in Sonny Gray, Lester and Scott Kazmir â?? all have won at least 12 games and have ERAs under 3.00 â?? but that has provided no assurance of success lately, as A's starters have a 2-7 record and 5.54 ERA over their last nine games.
The Angels come in with a head of steam, having won eight of their last nine, but are reeling from the loss of their staff ace. Hard-throwing right-hander Garrett Richards had ascended to that level in his first season as a full-time starter, going 13-4 with a 2.61 ERA and striking out nearly a batter per inning, when he went down with a torn patellar tendon in his left knee in a game against the Boston Red Sox on Wednesday. He will require surgery and 6-9 months of rehab.
The improved Angels' rotation had gotten a major boost from the emergence of Richards and rookie Matt Shoemaker (12-4, 3.58), reducing its ERA by more than half a run from last season (4.30-3.72) and helping the Angels bounce back after finishing 78-84 in 2013.
Shoemaker threw seven innings of one-hit ball against the Red Sox on Thursday.
Until Richards got hurt, L.A. starters had held opponents to three earned runs or less nine times in a row and in 21 out of 30 games since the All-Star break. The Angels now go into the home stretch without Richards or fellow starter Tyler Skaggs, who is out for the season after undergoing Tommy John elbow surgery. Los Angeles was 19-7 in Richards' 26 starts.
"Yeah, it's tough. He was our workhorse, our ace. But we'll pull through,'' said third baseman David Freese, acquired in the offseason from the St. Louis Cardinals. "It reminded me of 2011 when we lost (Adam) Wainwright the whole year to Tommy John, and that year ended up pretty good (St. Louis won the World Series). So we're going to battle through.''
The Angels trailed the A's by 5½ games as recently as June 29, but have gone 31-15 since then, taking sole possession of first place in the division Monday for the first time since May 15, 2011.
Despite Josh Hamilton struggling so badly that he was given back-to-back days off this week, the Angels have scored the second-most runs in the majors and pulled off 39 comeback victories, tops in baseball. Hamilton was back at cleanup on Tuesday and had two hits and three RBI on Wednesday, and an RBI double Thursday night.
"We really just started to put it together maybe the last 50 games, but we're playing at a high level now and you need to keep it up,'' manager Mike Scioscia said.
When the Angels elevated their game to match Oakland â?? which boasted the majors' best record for nearly two months â?? and then beyond, they raised the specter of a playoff chase similar to the one in 2002, when L.A. won its only World Series.
That year the Angels set a franchise high with 99 wins, but finished four games behind the 103-59 A's. The Seattle Mariners had an outstanding season as well at 93-69, which still left them 10 games out.
The difference now is the second wild card added in 2012 has changed the format and increased the premium on claiming the division crown to avoid the one-game wild-card playoff. This year that could mean facing the Mariners' Felix Hernandez or the Detroit Tigers' Max Scherzer or David Price for the right to reach the division series.
"If you don't win your division, it's a very, very difficult road not only to get through the one game to play yourself in but the toll it takes on your team and the grind to get through that first series when you've used so much to get back into the playoffs,'' Scioscia said.
Lester, acquired for big games like these, participated in his share of close playoff races in his 8 1/2 seasons with the Boston Red Sox, who reached the postseason four times in that spell, twice as division champs and twice as wild cards.
The Red Sox won World Series in 2007 in 2013 with Lester in the rotation, both times as division champs, but the ace lefty says the main thing is to reach October. Going into Friday, Oakland leads the wild-card race by 5½ games.
"Just find a way to get in, however which way it is,'' Lester said. "Obviously you want to win your division and you want to be top seed and you want to have the best record and all those things going forward, but any way you can get it, because all it takes is for something to happen and all of a sudden, boom, you're a hot team. Pitching's locked in, hitters are coming out swinging, and it doesn't matter who you're playing.''

I Don't Want To Love You
Ah, the morning after the sound of laughter is hollow and thin
The sound of tears falls on my ears
Bb7 A
Just how it all went wrong is not very clear
My pillow is cold, I feel the fear
C E Am
I don't wanna love you but I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
Something in my heart tells me be still
E Am
I don't want to love you But I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
I don't want to love you but I will, I will, I will, I will
F#m Bm F#m Bm
It's out of my hands now, beyond my mind
C#m F#m D E G
I don't understand now, my eyes are bl-i-i-ind
It's sad to discover what's under the cover of their eyes you know
A smile that's blinding is most [unverified]
The path to tomorrow will lead me nowhere
You dim the lights, I see the tears

Fire damaged several businesses located on Centennial Drive on the campus of Western Carolina University.
- Filed Under
An electrical problem caused a fire last week that heavily damaged a commercial building on the Western Carolina University campus, state government says.
The Nov. 21 fire began in the portion of the building occupied by Rolling Stone Burrito, said Jennifer Canada, a spokesman for the State Bureau of Investigation. The SBI was involved in determining the cause of the fire because the building is state-owned.
Canada said she could not be more specific about the nature of the electrical issue.
The future of the property is uncertain, WCU spokesman Bill Studenc said Wednesday.
"We are still waiting for information about the structural integrity of the building after the fire and for a financial assessment of damages from the State Construction Office and from the N.C. Department of Insurance," Studenc said. "Until we get that information, we remain in a wait-and-see mode."
The two-story, 4,820-square foot building is located in a small strip of commercial buildings near the intersection of Centennial and Central drives in the heart of the WCU campus.
Firefighters from five counties responded to last week's blaze, which burned for more than three hours and sent smoke billowing out of building windows.
There are several efforts in Jackson County to raise funds to assist the three restaurants that were located in the building: Mad Batter Bakery and Cafe, Subway and Rolling Stone Burrito.

We, Pinar & Viola, just like the rest of our generation, consume and produce on the internet. Our laptops are the extension of our hands. We can work anywhere as long as we have our laptops and a fast connection (you can keep track of us on Instagram here).
But it seems the times we used the internet as a means of escape are over. Instead, more often than not, we're trying to escape the internet. As an artist duo, we are kind of internet-tired: no more browser buttons in our work. This probably has to do with the mainstreaming, and subsequent overkill, of post-internet aesthetics. We feel like closing our digital windows; we're longing to touch the real-life earth with our bare feet, leaving our phones in airplane mode. But what if that's not enough to discharge ourselves?
EHS symptoms range from acute headaches, skin burning, muscle twitches, chronic fatigue and other 21st century malaises
Imagine a day when you develop an allergy towards the internet, your iPhone, or even worse, your brand new Galaxy S4. Imagine that data-roaming and scrolling through Instagram makes your skin itch, while tweeting leaves a metallic taste in your mouth. With red, irritated eyes, you find yourself changing your FB status: "Electromagnetic hypersensitive."
Electromagnetic bathing
Electromagnetic hypersensitivity sounds like a futuristic nightmare but, for a group of people, it is a RL status. Electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) might be a new malady or maybe an up-to-date, hypochondriac conspiracy theory. What many of us don't realise, though, is that the radiation we've been exposed to over the last ten years has been hundreds, even thousands, of times higher than in our pre-wireless age.
Scientists agree that electromagnetic fields are dangerous at high levels, but it's kind of agreed that the low levels emitted from our devices are safe. However, institutions like the National Cancer Institute now acknowledge that more research regarding our recent "electromagnetic bathing" is needed.
Electromagnetic fields, like o.a. GSM and wi-fi, cause electromagnetic hyper-sensitives a wild range of symptoms. According to sufferers, EHS symptoms range from acute headaches, skin burning, muscle twitches, chronic fatigue and other 21st century malaises. It's a fascinating, electro-phobic cocktail of anxiety and science-fiction spookiness.
As "normal people", we don't realize that our society is actually an electro-dictatorship where it is impossible to escape from man-made radiation
To date, EHS has gained little acceptance from the medical and scientific community. As there is no specific medical test for it, all EHS sufferers are self-diagnosed. Nevertheless, the number of people around the world claiming to have EHS is growing. Similarly, research into this controversial condition is increasing and EHS charities are fighting to get the surreal malaise officially recognized. Sweden is the only country where EHS is recognized as a valid medical condition, while the rest of the scientific world laughs or waits for more evidence.
But just because there's no evidence (yet) doesn't guarantee that something doesn't exist. Plus, these kinds of weird, sociological phenomena can be very intriguing. Plumbing through blogs, we dug into this modern folklore-meets-conspiracy theory. What we discovered was electrifying!
The survival methods of electromagnetic hypersensitives are bizarrely thrilling. As "normal people", we don't realize that our society is actually an electro-dictatorship where it is impossible to escape from man-made radiation. Electromagnetic emissions, known to EHS suffers as electrosmog, are beaming at us from every corner: radiation, 24/7.
EHS sufferers are only safe in a reclusive rural life, in tech-free fortresses where it is impossible for electrosmog to creep in. It's sad, but the most extreme EHS sufferers claim to have no choice but to live in a Farady Cage.
For desperate electromagnetic hypersensitives, their condition demands creative solutions. Some EHS solutions resembles a neo form of Art Brut. They look like visionary creations, reflections of our own excessive lives and paranoia. Cool, pure silver relieves wifi-burn the best. Their inventions are harsh and drastic, with an obscure poetry.
The shielded lives of EHS victims are extreme extrapolations of the influence that technology exerts on our lives
Lightning-proof fashion
Many EH sensitives dress with an uncalculated, atypical sophistication, their aim to bounce the radiation right off. EHS fashion is dramatic and evocative; forceful looks of oversized spy-wear couture. In their outfits, the mystical and the militant blend seamlessly, their layers of futuristic monochrome silver tones powerful enough to knock out submarine radar. Outfits are finished with EHS accessories like silver plated beanies, foil-lined brain coats and grounding gloves. SS13's metallic trend fades next to the utility statement pieces of the electromagnetic hypersensitive.
All electromagnetic (EM) protective fashion, with a shielding effectiveness of 99.99%, is made out of high-tech textile with fine weavings of silver wire. Crafty EHS sufferers weave metres of EM-shielding fabric into wifi-proof curtains and bed-cages. On several websites you can find many more EHS products: computer and cellphone shields, shielding paints, foil-lined wallpaper, earthling products, radiation detectors, educational kits… The list goes on.
Technological ignorance
The shielded lives of EHS victims are extreme extrapolations of the influence that technology exerts on our lives. In their wifi-free minds, they merge the philosophical with the factual (some, for instance, believe that PCs literally fry your brain). It's obvious that electromagnetic hypersensitives are eccentric, but their bizarre theories reflect on our common future: their self-diagnosis is an amplified version of the stress we face with our 'always on' lifestyles.

A reborn doll is a manufactured vinyl doll that has been transformed to resemble a human baby with as much realism as possible. Today there are a lot of understandable reasons why people choose not to have a (real) baby: poverty, crisis, unemployment, time etc. It is more efficient to have a baby-for-life whenever you want it. Even better, you can choose its exact looks, which makes the adoption of an ultra-realistic manufactured vinyl doll completely legit.

Everyone knows about the contemporary bee drama. The media is speculating frenzy about collapsing bee colonies and their increasing extermination. Apparently it concerns all of us since bees are responsible for pollinating a third of our food.
Societal concerns about bees seem to lead to the rise of the bee as a cultural trend. The little buzzers is popping up everywhere from new beauty products, home decoration trends, aerodynamic beehive designs, fashion styles, hippie ice-cream flavors to the rage of hot urban beekeepers.
Our addition to the bee buzz is this tip to turn a Bee Beard in an exclusive, fashionable eccentric look. When bees are scarce, they can dethrone the most luxurious accessories. Scroll down to Get The Look. Stir up the flora in your town while looking stunning!
Step 1) Prepare the bees. We find a small, friendly colony and move it during a high flight time to a different apiary site. The foragers cannot find their way to the colony and the colony is left with primarily younger bees. After about 24 hours, we locate the queen and put her in a cage. Next, we shake about 3 lbs of bees from the colony into a package, focusing on the bees from combs with brood. Then we add the queen, feed the bees with a can of sugar syrup, and put them in a cool, dark location for at least 24 hours. We spray the bees periodically with sugar syrup. Well fed bees are less likely to sting, so we keep them fat and happy.
Step 2) Prepare the person. I put vaseline under my eyes and on lips to prevent the bees from crawling there too much. I put cotton in my ears and up my nose to prevent bees from crawling in. I sometimes tape down my collar and sleeves, and tuck my shirt into my pants and tuck my pants into my socks. It isn't a good look, but it prevents the bees from getting into my clothing.
Step 3) Add bees. We spray the bees with sugar syrup one last time, then open the package and remove the queen and attach a string to her cage. I sit down in a chair, then an assistant ties the queen around my head, so the queen rests under my chin. I hold a lunch tray against my belly and my assistant dumps the bees onto the tray. The bees will smell the queen, crawl up to her and gather there. The bee feet feel strange and electric as they grip the skin on my face and neck. The cling to each other and hang down like a beard. The bees will "think" they are in a swarm, so they should not be defensive.
Step 4) Remove bees. When I am are ready to get them off, I first remove the queen and place her where I want her to be: either back in the package, or on the next person in line. To remove the majority of the bees, I stand over where I want to bees to go and jump down hard, jarring the bees off. The rest are removed with a soft brush. I let the package sit for a few hours, and after the bees have fully gathered I put the bees and queen back into their old colony.

A struggling town bought itself new hope by painting fake scenes on its walls
A bakery, a bookmaker and a barber have recently appeared in a village in Northern Ireland. But you cannot enter any of them. In a bid to bring in tourists, the town of Bushmills, famous for the whiskey that was first distilled there 400 years ago, has painted over a dozen abandoned storefronts and houses.
There are windows and doors with people looking out, a bakery with an appetizing selection of bread and cakes, and a traditional cobbler, where a man in a flat cap can be seen mending shoes.
It's not the first time Northern Ireland has tried this. A similar attempt to doll up villages in county Fermanagh so that visiting G8 leaders wouldn't see how woeful the region looked drew anger and derision; "cosmetic surgery for serious wounds," one local resident said. But in Bushmills, local residents raised their own funds to add to government money, and the project's been a success, a local councillor told Reuters; two of the painted stores have already found new owners.

Donald and Nancy Featherstone from Fitchburg, Massachusetts has been dressing in matching outfits everyday for 33 years! Donald made his fortune by inventing the infamous plastic pink flamingo lawn ornament. They met at a convention in 1975, got married, and have been wearing matching outfits since 1980. Nancy would pick out prints that reminds her of her husband's pink flamingo and make shirts for Donald and cut from the same cloth to make a dress for herself.

Last weekend's Missouri Valley Conference men's basketball tournament in St. Louis didn't offer a lot of mystery as Wichita State steamrolled the competition.
Maybe this is what it was like watching Indiana State and Larry Bird in 1979.
In both cases, those fortunate enough to watch those teams do their business can say they witnessed history. While we won't know for a few more weeks how fondly Wichita State will be remembered, my guess is the Shockers are a team for the ages, if not nationally, then certainly in the Valley. ...
