Japanese Children Ask, 'Where's Otosan?' Government Ads Challenge Fathers Who Spend Too Much Time at Work
Yoshiko Matsushita, writer of The Christian Science Monitor, The Christian Science Monitor
Satoshi Kawakami does more than most Japanese fathers, before and after work, every day: he changes his children's diapers, bathes them, or sometimes cooks for them. For the young building maintenance worker, a job is no excuse for not taking part in child-rearing.
"In our family, whoever has more time does all this," Mr. Kawakami says while feeding his two sons in his suburban Tokyo apartment on a Sunday afternoon. "I want to do a father instead of only being a father."
It's a sentiment that's rare in Japan. And the lack of child- rearing participation among men is worrisome enough that the Japanese government has now weighed in. It's sponsoring a controversial $4.1 million fatherhood campaign, attempting to nudge societal norms and encourage more fathers to be like Kawakami. On posters, and in television and radio ads, a well-known Japanese pop dancer, called "Sam," cradles his nine-month-old son in his arms and says: "You cannot call a man who doesn't care for his child a father." The campaign is sparking debate over the role of fathers and triggering outrage among Japanese males, particularly older men. "We were really surprised to receive so many letters and telephone calls, both positive and negative, about the campaign," says Masaki Matsuoka, deputy director of the Child and Family Bureau at the Health and Welfare Ministry, which sponsored the project Typical of critics are the comments of Kiichi Inoue, a member of parliament and father of three grown children. "I don't understand why the ministry is spending taxpayers' money for a campaign like this. It's the sort of thing that would make the female activist- types happy," he says. Immediately after the launch of the campaign, Mr. Inoue and a few other lawmakers filed a complaint to the ministry saying that the copy was "too extreme in tone." "Plus, the government shouldn't meddle in private affairs, pushing an ideal father like that. Different families have different circumstances," he says. Championing fatherhood is a new role for the government. It is a move prompted ostensibly by last year's record-low birth rate of 1.38 children per woman. Fewer babies, concluded ministry officials, will lead to fewer consumers, fewer workers, and less economic prosperity. Mr. Matsuoka also explains that the recent rise in school violence, delinquency, and child abuse (by stressed mothers) cannot be discussed without referring to the absence of fathers from the home. …

Detailed Description
Stuckgowan House is a unique Grade A listed house situated overlooking Loch Lomond. It has been lovingly restored with great care and attention from being almost derelict to probably one of the finest holiday houses in Scotland.

The house has a 7 seater hot tub, a cinema room, a games room and a small gym.
The house is a constant condradiction; almost 200 years old with thick granite walls yet somehow delicate, light and modern. The extensive 34 acres of grounds and woodlands are home to a variety of rare trees. A 45 meter Sequoia is the joint tallest in Scotland. The bedrooms have been named after trees found within the estate.
The house is within easy access of Glasgow airport and there are trains from the airport which run to Balloch Station, approximately 16 miles away. There is also a train station in Tarbet, 2 miles north of the house, which has trains from Glasgow central station traveling north, through Tarbet and up to Fort William.

History of Stuckgowan
In Search of Stuckgowan – A Taste of History
In scanning the history of this stretch of the highlands along Loch Lomond we hope to inform newcomers and help the curious find their way into the historical hinterland.
This was an area troubled for centuries by feud and dispute until, out of the Industrial revolution and political turbulence, there emerged a beautiful house which enhanced it's marvellous setting.
The house dates from before 1820 and was built with elegant lancet windows and arched doorways as Gothic and Norman references but above all with grace and balance.
Its environment, however, has its darker side with a history of clan battles, cattle lifting even brigandry. Sir Walter Scott's novels rushed off the shelves bearing stories inspired by the history of the area. Local rumour suggests that Rob Roy was penned in part in the House. We have found nothing to suggest that this is correct but see later.
We have started on a collection (more a miscellany) of appendices which we hope are of interest but also with links to the area.
Warning – names, be it of place or family, change over the years.
Since the early 13th century a sweep of the western side of the Loch, (including what we grandly still call The Stuckgowan Estate) has been owned by just 5 families.
1235 to 1718 – The MacFarlanes –
The MacFarlanes were warriors, but occasional cattle lifters and brigands, often living outside the law and feuding with their neighbours, the Colquhouns. Outlawed by parliament and beset by debt, the MacFarlanes fell on hard times and in 1718 the Stuckgowan lands were sold. Later in the century the remainder of the Macfarlane lands became part of the Colquhoun Estate.
1718 -1799 – The Simes –
John Simes, a butcher from Edinburgh, bought the Stuckgowan lands. Little is known of the family but they eventually sold to John McMurrich (possibly together with his brother Malcolm).
1799 – 1879 The McMurrichs
Little is known as to any previous dwellings but John McMurrich (1758 – 1847) came to be known as the creator of Stuckgowan house. The early 19th century saw vast changes. John, a merchant from Glasgow, was clearly the driving force responsible for the graceful property we can enjoy today. Add to that the beautiful gardens, glimpses of which remain even after years of neglect and lodges built with style and we can start to measure the extent of his achievements.
As was the practice at that time, the lands were settled in a form of trust and on his death James McMurrich became the Life Renter and Laird. Not withstanding the sale to the Colquhouns, it seems he continued to live on the Estate until his death.
1879 – 2011 – The Colquhouns –
Sir James Colquhoun left instructions in his will to purchase the Stuckgowan Estate if ever it came on the market. That wish was realized in 1879. The Colquhoun lands now ranged all along the side of the loch. The Stuckgowan Estate merged into the Colquhoun lands and, bit-by-bit sales diminished the mix of properties that had been assembled by the McMurrichs.
In turn the house was a home, a small hotel and then, in 2011, the shell of the old Estate House, including the gardens, north lodge and 34 acres of wild highland hillside was sold to the current owners.
With the framework of extended stewardship by these families there is a range of stories that hover between folklore, fable and real history.
Two of the best known are:
- 1592 – The murder of Sir Hugh Colquhoun. One of the best fireside stories with many twists and uncertainties with revenge for infidelity, clan feud, and fratricide amongst the motives. Each version has the MacFarlanes heavily involved but it was Sir Hugh's brother who was executed in November.
- 1603 – The Battle of Glen Fruin engaging the Colquhouns with a range of foes including the MacFarlanes. The Colquhouns suffered a massive defeat but it was the political consequences on their adversaries, which seems to have had a lasting effect.
In the 18th and 19th centuries the savagery of the past slowly gave way to an explosion of wealth, scientific and technical advances, tourism, architecture and literature – all seemed to touch Stuckgowan.
Glasgow's wealth grew out of trade and industry. John McMurrich was a Glasgow merchant – we believe a wood merchant and along with many of his contemporaries he 'moved' to the country. Whether he foresaw the tourist boom that followed is uncertain. It seems likely that he continued some 'wood merchant' dealings from Stuckgowan.
David Napier one of the creators of steamship travel pioneered some of the important scientific and technical advances in steamship design and bought his paddle steamer 'Marion' to Loch Lomond in 1818. Napier and John McMurrich eventually became partners and Tarbet prospered on the tourist trade. Marion's success and Napier's wider foresight and business drive played no little part as seed corn for the worldwide changes as sail gave way to steam.
As it happened the steamers promoted Loch Lomond as a tourist attraction.
Stuckgowan itself became a place to visit.
1839 Lumsden
"…Here the stranger previous to proceeding on his journey may visit the romantic pleasure grounds of Stuckgoune belonging to Mr McMurrich who has afforded every facility for the lover of nature to enjoy her in her wildest moods"
Over the years there has been a procession of complimentary references including…
"Shortly before reaching Tarbet, there is seen a pretty white mansion with woody recesses leading up to the mountains behind, and umbrageous lawns spreading gently downwards to the brink of the lake. This is Stuck Gown — pronounced…stugoon"
2010 Louis Stott's Blog
"Not far south of Tarbet a splendid regency cottage, Stuckgowan, is exquisitely situated above the A82. In its architecture it is one of the finest houses in the National Park….."
So notwithstanding her age the house has retained her charm born out of her architectural excellence. This in-turn raises one of the questions to which we have sought an answer.
If there was an Architect, who was he or she?
We will happily play Watson to any architectural Sherlock.
Whoever was responsible, the house has not just charm but a unique quality, which more than merits its Grade A listing.
The mystery of the Architect's identity is just the first of the questions that remain unanswered including when exactly was she built and is there any basis for the local rumour that Sir Walter Scott wrote part of Rob Roy in the house.
Ross Priory rightly lays claim to close connection with Sir Walter. Was Stuckgowan built by the time he visited the Loch in 1817? Even Ross Priory was probably ringing to the sound of Masons hammers at that time. Certainly Sir Walter's research for the book included a trip to the head of the loch and he would have passed Stuckgowan but we cannot say whether he stayed or even visited. However a clear link with Sir Walter comes later through Frances Jeffery (later Lord Jeffery) who stayed in the house nearly every year between 1821 and 1838. He was an editor, critic, poet, lawyer, politician and later a judge. Sir Walter refers to him as 'my particular friend'. Hector Buchanan of Ross Priory was a friend and close associate of Sir Walter and it would be strange if their common interests in literature, publishing, the Loch, their friendship and mutual profession did not draw these three together at Stuckgowan.
Whilst we cannot say many of the 'great slept here' Lord Francis and David Napier must rate as important men of their time.
Perhaps the guest book starting in 2013 will be of greater interest to future historians but it is not just the famous who should raise our interest in the past.
The Appendices will we hope become a growing miscellany of interesting snippets. They already include 'The Stuckgowan Estates Act 1879' a tipping point for Stuckgowan and one which anticipated the important changes in Land Law just three years later.
Somehow we hope those who are interested will end with an overview of the sweep of history which includes savagery, lawlessness, financial ruin, amazing progress, cultural changes, decay and now, through to a time when the fabric of the house is refreshed and she takes her charm on a new adventure.
The North Lodge will be restored and with it a more domestic history – an office, possibly the home for the 'Robinson the fox killer' keeper of the highland terriers, a refuge perhaps for second world war evacuees (are they still alive?) and a mini architectural gem with Norman arched diamond paned frontage windows, but sadly no more the driveway sweeping up from the loch edge to set off its humble excellence.
Slowly we hope to recover the history of the 'Gardens' by returning them at least in part to their former glory, but for now, the battle of the rhododendrons continues.
Please enjoy the house with all its facets.

Upset-minded Boston College falls to No. 2 Virginia
CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – Unranked Boston College men's basketball was thinking upset when they hit the court Saturday afternoon, and for a brief period to open the second half, Eagles senior Patrick Heckmann could do no wrong. A highlight-reel spin move that split defenders left a wide open lane for Heckmann to score the ball, and over the next five plus minutes of the latter...

"After talking to my friends, coaches and people who are close to me, I have decided that this year I will enter my name into the NBA Draft without hiring an agent to preserve my eligibility," Spencer Hawes said to members of the media gathered inside the Founders Club at Hec Edmundson Pavilion.What does this all mean? First of all the answer may not come until June 18th - the final day Hawes can withdraw his name from the draft and return to college with his eligibility still in tact. As of right now Hawes is still enrolled in school, will not hire an agent and wants to get an honest evaluation from NBA organizations before he makes his final decision. ...More...

Faith Communities and
the Post-Reform Safety Net
Mary Jo Bane 1
Religious politics has often enough been intolerant and threatening to democracy. But the real threat to democracy now is more likely to come from the rampant self-interest that thwarts all efforts at social and political reform. At their best, churches bring into the public arena a politics of community and of compassion.
IN THIS CHAPTER, I RETURN TO THE ISSUE OF WELFARE, with which the seminar that generated this book began. The pivotal event, for welfare reform in the 1990s as well as for the thinking of contributors to this volume, was the passage of the 1996 welfare reform legislation, the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunities Reconciliation Act. Now, almost five years after its passage, it seems clear that there has been a dramatic change in both the size and the character of the welfare system in the United States without a similarly dramatic decrease in poverty or hardship. This, in turn, has changed the context of the debate about poverty and injustice, has expanded the range of relevant policy alternatives and has the potential for changing politics and the rhetorical framework in which the debate is conducted.
This chapter examines the challenges and opportunities for involvement by religious organizations in this new context. It examines the role that churches, and in particular the Catholic Church, played in welfare reform during the 1990s. The examination is offered as a useful background for considering a possible new role for churches in the new policy context. It then argues that the times provide both a new need and a new opportunity for more effective involvement.
I focus on the activities of the Catholic Church in advocating for welfare policy and in providing social safety net services as an example of a large (indeed the largest), well-organized, mainstream and largely progressive religious organiza-

iHerb Customer Reviews
I used to wear Buttered Tan (NC 30) in Original Glo before they discontinued it. I am unable to get samples so I tried to get as much info out there on what is the closest match. First of all, the names and pictures of the colors sound light but in person the shade is at least 2 shades darker then pictured. "Bare" is a perfect match for Buttered Tan users. It blends into the skin very nicely and it seems much smoother than other formulas. The coverage is pretty sheer. The new packaging makes it so that the product will not get all over the place. *TIP* do not remove the clear sticker and poke only one hole for the product to come out so that there is no waste and it doesn't get messy.
Out of all the shades this one suits me best for my Asian olive skin. Have purchased 2 more just in case.

Financial Aid Questions
How much money am I going to get?
To qualify for most financial aid programs, you must demonstrate financial need according to criteria established by the federal government. Need is the difference between the total cost of attending school (budget) and the amount you and your family are expected to contribute.
After your need has been calculated, the school makes an award up to the total amount of your need. Some schools may add non-need-based aid up to the total cost of attendance. Your award may include a combination of scholarships, grants, tuition waivers, work-study, or loans. When comparing financial aid offers from various schools, be sure to calculate the "bottom line." Subtract each institution's financial aid offer from that institution's cost of attendance to determine the amount that you and your family will contribute.
How is my financial aid disbursed?
If you are in a quarter-based program, financial aid is disbursed in quarterly installments on or after the first day of each quarter. There are three quarters in a standard aid year (fall, winter, spring). Summer quarter aid is handled on a case by case basis depending on your program and aid eligibility.
If you are in a semester-based program, financial aid is disbursed semester installments on or after the first day of each semester. There are two semesters in a standard aid year (fall, spring). Summer semester aid is handled on a case by case basis depending on your program and aid eligibility.
See the disbursement of financial aid section and Student Financial Services for more details.
Can I receive financial aid for my study abroad program?
If you are in a study abroad program that is approved for credit at EWU, you may receive financial aid through EWU for that program. Contact the Office of Global Initiatives for more details.
What happens to my financial aid if I withdraw from school?
If you are registered and need to leave EWU, you should formally withdraw by submitting a withdrawal form to the Records and Registration Office. Students who do not formally withdraw may receive grades of "0.0" for all classes. Please see the Student Financial Services web site for information on refunds. Students who receive financial aid and withdraw may be required to repay a pro-rated amount to the financial aid programs. Refer to the Return of Title IV Funds policy for details.
What if I have special access needs? How can financial aid help me?
Eastern Washington University strives to satisfy all requests for special access needs for persons with disabilities. Requests for special access may be made by calling the Financial Aid and Scholarship Office at 509.359.2314 or the Disability Support Services Office at 509.359.6871.

Capital Stage presents a limited run of David Sedaris' "The Santaland Diaries," adapted by Joe Mantello. In time for the holidays, Capital Stage continues its ninth season with a production perfect for the humbug in all of us. For mature elves only, this play expresses the many frustrations associated with the season's festivities with the kind of candid wit any adult will appreciate.
"The Santaland Diaries" is a brilliant evocation of what a slacker's Christmas must feel like. Out of work, our slacker decides to become a Macy's elf during the holiday crunch. At first the job is simply humiliating but once the thousands of visitors start pouring through Santa's workshop, he becomes battle weary and bitter. He grins and bears it, occasionally taking out his frustrations on the children and parents alike.
This wickedly funny tale is based on the outlandish, and true, chronicles of humorist and best-selling author David Sedaris' experience as Crumpet the Elf in Macy's SantaLand display.
Witty, sardonic and unpredictable, mercilessly cutting through the Christmas spirit to point out the insane things we humans do during the holidays, Sedaris stands up for the Grinch in each of us.
The play performs through Dec. 29 at Capital Stage, 2215 J St. in Sacramento. Performance times are Wednesdays and Sundays at 7 p.m.; Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m.; and Saturday and Sunday matinees at 2 p.m.
Tickets are $24 to $38. Purchase them at the box office at 2215 J. St. in Sacramento, by calling 916-995-5464 or online at capstage.org.

Clean comfortable room. Bed was very comfortable.
WiFi was a bit spotty. We were at the far end of the hall and the signal was a little weak.
Great friendly staff. Many new renovations. Breakfast had good variety and all was fresh.
We didn't know the pool was closed for renovations til we got there (upsetting to 3 11 year old girls) but we were offered shuttle service to a neighboring hotel for use of their pool.
Staff terrific, rooms (on 3rd floor) newly renovated and spacious. Large comfy king-size bed, as well as couch, fridge, microwave, etc. Room clean. Mattress, pillows and bedding so comfortable. Were in town to visit family. Convenient location. Excellent price. Good breakfast options. Hot coffee and tea 24 hours. Highly recommend
Upon walking in, lobby floor unfinished. Undergoing renovation. Understandably, rugs in elevators littered with construction debris (i.e., small sheetrock pieces and dust). Otherwise, excellent.

Thats NOT parenting!
I encountered a situation far worse than this at a Kroger store a few months ago. I had to use the bathroom to throw up (morning sickness) and when I got up to the door, I heard young children screaming, crying, and begging their mother to stop. I opened the door to see what was happening since I didn't just want to assume what was happening. What I saw was far worse than what I heard. I backed out of the bathroom before the mother could see that I interrupted her abuse. I was in complete and total shock. I could barely speak and I was just frozen there, outside the bathroom listening to these poor babies. I couldn't put myself back together enough to go up to the store manager. Luckily my husband was there with me and he did tell the manager who checked in the bathroom and then called the in-store police officer.
My point is that it is easy for alot of people to say you should have done something, but many of these people probably haven't witnessed something like this first hand. It was my first time ever witnessing child abuse and I was in so much shock that I couldn't figure out what do to in the moment. It really is a tough situation to be in if you don't have somewhat of a bold personality. I definitely don't. My personality makes me weak which caused me to react the way I did.

Follow any special dietary instructions given by your doctor. A period of not eating is usually recommended before you start taking this medication and lasting until after the colonoscopy. Only clear liquids (such as water, flavored water, lemonade with no pulp, ginger ale, apple juice) are allowed during this time. Do not drink any liquids colored purple or red.
The evening before your colonoscopy, take 4 tablets with at least 8 ounces (240 milliliters) of clear liquid by mouth every 15 minutes or as directed by your doctor. Repeat this dose and the liquids every 15 minutes until you have taken 5 doses (20 tablets). The next day, start taking the medication 3-5 hours before the colonoscopy. Take 4 tablets every 15 minutes with liquids as directed until you have taken 3 doses (12 tablets).
Dosage is based on your medical condition, procedure, and response to treatment. Do not use a higher dose or more often than directed by your doctor.
Do not use any other laxative products (especially sodium phosphate) while taking this product or for 7 days after treatment is finished. Doing so may increase your risk for severe side effects.
Watery bowel movements usually begin 1 hour after you start to take the tablets. The bowel movements can be very large and watery. Drink as many clear liquids as you can before, during, and after taking this medication so that you do not lose too much body water (become dehydrated). Doing so will help prevent serious side effects (such as kidney problems). Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
The watery bowel movements from sodium phosphate may decrease the absorption of your regular medicines. Consult your doctor or pharmacist about how to minimize this effect.
Contact your doctor if you do not have a bowel movement within 3 hours after taking this medication.
Nausea, vomiting, stomach/abdominal pain or bloating, dizziness, and headache may occur. If any of these effects persist or worsen, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.
Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.
Persistent diarrhea or vomiting may result in a serious loss of body water (dehydration) and minerals. This may cause serious side effects to the kidneys and heart. Contact your doctor promptly if you notice any symptoms of dehydration, such as unusual decreased urination, unusual dry mouth/increased thirst, lack of tears, dizziness/lightheadedness, muscle weakness/cramping, or pale/wrinkled skin.
Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: severe or persistent stomach/abdominal pain, black/bloody stools, rectal bleeding, mental/mood changes (such as confusion, unusual drowsiness).
Get medical help right away if you have any very serious side effects, including: fast/irregular heartbeat, chest pain, fainting, seizures.
A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, get medical help right away if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.
This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Hawkshead Off The Beaten Path
The Drunken Duck Inn at Barngates,...
At the end of another rain sodden day in the Lakes, we were all out of options where to eat out, and had even missed the local provisions stores opening times. The Lake at Coniston seamed like one of Blake's religious paintings. This is the scene of Campbell's fatal attempt to break the world water land speed record in Bluebird in 1964. We saluted the sun sinking below its surface. Then we were resigned to give up on our quest for food.
Only a wrong turn on the way back to a rented log cabin, revealed a completely perfect eating place - The Drunken Duck Inn. The old car stumbled at the brow of hill, which I now know is Barngates, the site of an Inn but this place looked different from other inns, more cherished. A happy noise of live music, one man and his guitar, supported by a joyful chorus of drinkers came from within. Presented with this siren, we reversed back quickly. We pushed through the jolly crowd and found a small space, only big enough I thought then, to fit a long banquette across the back of the T shaped room.
Not only were they serving seriously great food, but also they brewed their own beer! Could it get any better? It was, for me at least, my idea of the perfect night out. We ordered main courses to begin with. Only to be presented with an elegant surprise, a tantalizing amuse bouclé of honeyed parsnip soup and a small loaf of bread and butter. The main courses surpassed our expectations too but the coup de grace in the surprise stakes still awaited us, we shared the most exquisitely delicate, and sweet apricot soufflé. Had we dreamt it or had a twister blown us to Never Land like Dorothy when she flew over the rainbow? The next day we returned just to see, there was no rainbow, not a single blue bird, save for the original, only consistently wonderful food and drink. Which necessitates the premises being much bigger than we originally thought. Thus proving that we hadn't dreamt it!
Always pause and reflect when one is reading a list of recommended restaurants. Does the informant own a rival establishment? That is the only explanation I can come up with, for why the meticulous guide that came with our log cabin had deliberately failed to include the Drunken Duck. Or perhaps the locals like to reserve the best for themselves? I really don't know? But I know one thing; we'll be back!Related to:

Hawkshead Favorites
Kick back and relax
Favorite thing: Hmm, so many things about Hawkshead were enjoyable. Its smallness, its villageness, the tiny streets and winding lanes, the people, the architecture, the pubs, the real ales, the food. We rented a cottage for two on the edge of the village. Beautiful cottage garden to relax in. We did a lot of walking.... or should I say strolling. Its the perfect place. Mind you, the weather was exceptional the week we were there. There were a number of pubs and inns, but the one that caught our attention ever time was the Red Lion. Plenty of lovely views, history, and driving routes to occupy everyone. We'll definitely be back.
Fondest memory: Setting out from our rented cottage, walking through the lupins and roses in the cottage garden, out the back gate and through the fields full with sheep; across the county lanes, nodding to the farmer who opened the gate for us, waving at the bus driver, stopping to chat with the lady who was out walking her dogs. Big skies, sunshine... We walked from Hawkshead into Coniston and treated ourselves to a pint of real ale and an ice-cream - not all at the same time. We sat in the unexpected sunshine and heat and and people watched. The stroll back to Hawkhead was just as pleasant.... in time for a teatime and a gorgeous pie and a pint in the Red Lion.Related to:

Article Summary
Way back in 1966, Maserati came to the Turin Auto Show with a new performance GT in hand. Sculpted by design legend Giorgetto Giugiaro the awkwardly named Ghibli, a long of nose GT, was one of Maserati's great successes in the 60s. After several questionable attempts to bring the name back in various forms, Maserati is set to release a redefined Ghibli – this time in sedan form.

Buddy is another Irish Gaelic word, which comes from the Irish expression, a vuddy, or a bhodaigh, which means something like "pal." The root of the word bhodaigh is strangely, bod, which is the Irish word for cock, and pronounced like bud. In ancient Celtic traditions a man's cock was believed to be a form of life force energy. Warriors would massage each other cocks and would go to battle, fully erect. Repeating this ancient ritual can facilitate healing, reduce stress, vitalize and restore balance in a synergistic way. This Celtic Ritual Massage for men in London is done in gentle, wave like motions throughout the body. When you are totally relaxed I will gently massage your soul. You will find it extremely pleasurable and deeply relaxing, bi/ awakening your chakras, and eventually combined with repeated Celtic Cock massage bring you close, again, and again and again, again to experience an amazing Celtic fusion orgasm. Certainly no Adonis, butt. He is the best erotic Masseur in the UK. Sometimes there is nothing quite like being touched bi a big strong man.

I am a happy man. Strong and gentle. I'm blessed with a large thick uncut penis, and yes, I consider it an asset, but not necessarily a component that's key to my self-esteem. I have a good heart, and an interested mind. I love being intimate with another man. As soon as you meet me you will notice I have a certain "energy" about me. That I have a gift. Over a period of more than a quarter of a century I have given more than 5,000 Massage celebrations rituals to men in London. I have never done the same massage twice. My celebrations are not something that I have learned, from a book, or by attending some sexy seminar, butt rather something that has evolved from my passion for my work. I absolutely love masculinity, and I am deeply committed to celebrating The Comradeship of Shared Masculinity through Erotic Touch.

Jennifer Hampton, as Stacey, Lizzie Harden as Maggie and Nancy Longland, as Kerrie, in Thick as a Brick
/ Arts
RAODS' latest production at the Plaza, Romsey, has been a confusing challenge for cast member, Nancy Longland. Her real-life father, Nick, plays her on-stage headteacher and, to add to the confusion, her real-life teacher, Steve Cosier, is playing her best friend's dad!
Nancy plays one of the three stroppy pupils given a chance to change their lives in John Godber's school comedy, Thick as a Brick (April 8-12).
It's set in Common Road High, where new drama teacher, Mary Clifford, faces an uphill task convincing staff and pupils of the importance of the arts – not least because she has a stammer! With an energetic score by John Pattison, singing and dancing, Thick as a Brick offers all-round entertainment laced with humour and some telling comments on the education system.
Tickets available online at plazatheatre.com, or from the Romsey Tourist Information Centre, on 01794 512987.

I have a list of menus below the title bar, with menus like
All Article | Top10 |
When I select the All Article menu it parses and lists the data, and below the last list row I have a button to load more data in the list. For that purpose I used a singleton class. When I click the Top10 menu I have to do the same, but here I need to clear the singleton class fields; I tried to set the singleton class instance to be null in
clear(), but it doesn't clear the field values. It still shows the All Article list data. This is all in the same
Activity. How do you suggest I do this? Thanks in advance.


text: I was wondering if anyone has a quick change for this. When entering a link, there is a box that allows for a short description. When a short description is entered, two things seem to occur. It places the short description next to the name of the link directly on my site (i don't want this), and it also pops up the short description in a small text box when the mouse pauses briefly over the name of the link (This is what i want). How can i turn off the displayed short description on my blog while keeping the short description in a text box upon mouse pause on the name?

Kiro Reference. by ShineraiWatch
©2013-2016 Shinerai
DescriptionLately I have been incredibly busy without too much time to draw. I plan on next completing a commission for diferent6 that will be a considerable undertaking. I've been feeling a little out of practice so I wanted to warm up first and work on something of my own.
A little different than my usual style, here's a reference sheet for one of my characters; Kiroalmagh. It took me longer than I anticipated to create this, but that's what happens when you haven't been drawing as much as you used to. I hope to one day have a reference sheet for all of my characters, aha.
Feel free to let me know how you feel about this reference sheet as opposed to my usual style (which typically includes a lot of text). ♥ Download for the full size.

I absolutely love how you've put thought into the 'rudder' bone on his body. Really nice touch, and it's so intriguing! Great work!
Thank you very much for the compliments! I'm glad you like the design
You are very welcome! I'm going to have a look at your tutorial later. Thank you for sharing that.
This design is beautiful
Elaborate work! Looks perfect!
Dude, your stuff is awesome. I love your designs so much and aldkgjasdlf I want to draw like this!
That sternum/keel is really interesting, considering there aren't huge wings attached to it (I think) like one might expect from that sort of anatomical detail. ouo I'm really curious as to what your thoughts were on the reasons for it, because clearly your anatomy is top-notch and you know what you're doing! I can't tell too well from the angles shown here but it looks like it's a flat protrusion, without a massive amount of muscle attached to it (like for wings)? Is it for stabilization in the water maybe?
Why, Im glad you asked! Thank you for noticing! It certainly helps stabilization in the water but is also a comfy spot to put his super long non-streamline arms when he is swimming! Like this dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16…
Nice concept!
Your character Ryu sounds like a cool tough guy, beating up pickpockets...then letting them live in his house until they can get on their feet. Hard to imagine trying to learn picking pockets without one's hearing. That would take talent.
Kiro is pretty talented at causing trouble. Ryu is cool, in a way. He's a shorty and he doesn't like to make friends, so he gets along just fine with someone he can't talk to. xD
Oh damn, this is kickass. I like the new style, too! Haven't seen many aquatic beasties from you!
I enjoy this style :3 More pictures can probably speak better than words do...unless things need futher explanation of course
I love his feets x3
I love his feets x3
OMG the dragon is so beautiful! I really love it! It's amazing how you figure out different creatures
I really like the way the feet are so winglike! Haven't seen that before!
such a cool character one of your best
Kay, here I go with spamming you with comments because I'm amazing at leaving beautifulness in my inbox for months at a time. Grandpa Kiro. It's awesome to see his finished ref and I've always liked the concept of his feet design since it's so unique and different from everything else out there c: Well, that could be said about his whole design really haha. All of that transparency in his design is just so intriguing ;o; Astonishing work on this though! Love his design. Oh, does he still have his huge flute?
Thank you fox ;o;.
He does still have his flute but I was too lazy to draw it! XD
He does still have his flute but I was too lazy to draw it! XD
That is so freaking cool.
Now this is an awesome character, very creative c: I love it!
I like the wings, horns and tail, and look at those feet ;w; they're both so creative and beautiful c:

Thank you very much for the compliments c':>
I'm always just in awe of how much effort you put into your character's ref sheets. There's no detail you leave out! Even the skeleton, gosh. Just makes them all the more believable C:
The smaller layout of this ref is nice, but I rather liked the in-depth explanations for the purpose of your character's details, like the use of his little fins or his multiple toes or those sort of transparent looking plates on his head and elbows.

You always think of the most original dragons. <3
I love the colors and those WINGS.
this looks really cool but without information I have no idea why the hell his bones look like that LOL
Oh no! OTL
I guess I learned my lesson on that one haha.
I guess I learned my lesson on that one haha.
yea it took like 40 minutes to figure out, oh! that's the front legs and the wing arms~
without the information I thought you had the legs on wrong and backwards to the chest and rump >.<
ooo sheen, this ref is gorgeous! even though it's more simpler than your other ref sheets, it conveys a lot of Kiro's key features. i really like how you also drew his rib cages, he has a very unique anatomy! c:
i can't decide which ref sheet style i like best, sometimes i just like to read all the text on shin's sheet and then other times i like simple ones like Kiro's because of the detailed body shots
Oh gosh thank you so much beb cx <3 I appreciate the compliments.
I have decided that I can't decide either >>
I have decided that I can't decide either >>
aaah shin i cant help but go through your art on occasion and wow since i encountered you youve improved a lot in character design and stuff look at that tail wow its so neat looking and the colors and everything i love how in the humanoid form the frills curl around the feet wowee

Comcast Joins NY's Anti-Newsgroup Crowd, Shuts Off Access
Comcast has joined pretty much every other ISP in New York by shutting off access to newsgroups, effective two days ago, although current users will still have access through October 25th.

TCTI: Too Crazy To Ignore
Dave Ross
< Dave Ross
For whom the bell tolls
Are you listening? ... There's that familiar bell. But I'm starting to think of it as more like a fire alarm.
As the markets have gone up and down over the past 11 days, they have been warning the default-deniers that they're not going to get the same pass as their global warming cousins. The impact won't be in some distant dystopian future, it'll be here and now.
It's sending as message to people like Representative Steve King, "I don't think the credit of the United States is going to be collapsed. We have plenty of money coming in to service the debt. When we stop servicing the debt - that would be default. We're a long, long ways from that."
Well, I'm sure you're a smart man, but I'm afraid the investment community doesn't agree with you.
And whatever you think about Wall Street, one way or another, everybody's wealth, from the change in the cup of a street beggar to the retirement funds of 77 million Baby Boomers, depends on it.
And not only has the stock market been sending a message - every financial executive Congress invites to testify says the same thing. Here's a collection of clips - and this is just from Thursday's testimony.
"Unnecessarily triggering a voluntary default will result in a dramatic and possibly permanent damage to our economy and markets ..."
"Resulting in higher mortgage rates and increasing the rate in buying a home..."
"The damage of a default who saves, invests, borrows or who has any stake in the economy..."
It sounds like an episode of "Breaking Bankrupt." Unfortunately, this drama would only just be starting.
