Through this session we'll explore the SAFe Release Train radar assessment and the Program Health radar assessment so you can determine if you're setting your teams up for success.
Recent PMI Study calls Requirements Management a core competency for project and program success - and does so for a good reason. 47% of projects run into trouble due to incomplete or changing requirements & specifications, lack of user input or unrealistic expectations. UX methods brought wild success to Apple, Google and other top players and it has been increasingly popular ever since. But what most magazines don't tell you is that it's not just the Design part of UX that makes it so effective! Attend this webinar to learn abut the not-so-glamorous, but extremely effective new UX tools and processes - for gaining accurate user insights, discovering 'missing' requirements and hidden underlying problems - the ones that business users would really like to see resolved first - even when they are not be clearly articulated.
Many projects do not fail due to technical reasons. When project outputs get transitioned to operations and the resultant changes go live, there is a huge resistance from the impacted functional organizations (especially for projects such as system integration, process improvement, and enterprise transformation).
A Change Team and a Project Team have a very similar purpose: they both need to migrate smoothly to a new, and in most cases, unknown situation. The journey is not a common one, the obstacles are diverse, and the result is unique each time. This very practical presentation provides examples on how several group dynamics theories could contribute to raise the commitment of the Change Team and demonstrate how tangible results can be obtain by applying accessible tools.
People do things/buy things, not for the thing itself, but for the benefit that doing/buying the thing brings them. What makes this challenging is that those reasons are not always obvious. I'll show you how to get past "first order problem solving" and drill down to the strategic value of projects.
This webinar will focus on three aspects of project finance: the business case, invoice management and working with finance stakeholders.
Concurrent product development is not just doing tasks in parallel, but focusing on project definition, cross-functional teaming and constant refinement of the final product based on end user requirements. Cross-functional teams are the key to accelerating innovation, reducing time to market and delivery the right product or service to the end user.
This webinar follows the research conducted by Harvey Seifter and his team and speaks to the benefit of having creativity and innovation infused into STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). This method of learning which utilizes the arts shows tremendous gains. The research displays the process of using innovative visual displays of information for creating visual roadmaps. Participants will see how arts based learning can increase collaborative behavior and innovation which makes for healthier projects.
An Inside Look at Business Analysis in Sessions at PMI® Global Congress 2016-EMEA Join us for a panel discussion on Business Analysis in PPPM and get a glimpse into some of the key themes to be presented in this content area at PMI Global Congress 2016 –EMEA.
This webinar covers the points that are required PRIOR to a project charter being issued, and the tasks therein can and should fall within the duties of a BA.
In this presentation, Mark Mullaly explores what it takes to deliver project information effectively in the boardroom. He discusses common challenges and pitfalls, and explores why project information often falls short of expectations. He identifies the information that executives are most often looking for, and how to think about, structure and present information in a way that is meaningful and relevant. The webinar will provide strategies to plan your next presentation, and to ensure to the greatest degree possible that it hits the mark.
For those who find this concept a little discomforting, this webinar is for you. Mark Mullaly explores what it means to develop and reinforce your abilities as a project manager. Rather than looking on career development as a honing and refining of technical skills and abilities, he takes on the necessary challenge of developing our career as one of ensuring visibility, reinforcing reputation and cementing perceptions of competence. It's not enough to be a great project manager; it is also necessary to be seen as a great project manager. Stand up and be counted; your career will thank you for it.
This webinar lifts the lid on project governance to explore what is supposed to be happening, why it isn't occurring, and what to do about it. Join Mark Mullaly as he explores the challenges associated with designing effective project governance structures. He will explore what steering committees are supposed to do, why they often don't, and what you can do about it. Make going to a steering committees the highlight of your month, not the thing that you dread most. Here's how.
So what does it actually mean to manage an agile project? What does it take to get acceptance and adoption, and to introduce the practices to an organization? Is it more effective to introduce aspects of the approach, hoping for some level of take-up, even if it means compromising many of the overall foundations? Or is it necessary to adopt agile wholesale, and fend off attempts to water it down? In this presentation, Mark Mullaly explores the agile phenomenon: where it came from, what it is meant to do, and how to best make it work. Whether you are trying to make it work, or just want to find out more about what it's about, be sure to tune in as we try to deftly explore the agile phenomenon.
Join Stephen Maye as he walks you through getting a handle on your project's risks. This video features a presentation on identifying potential risks, detailed risk analysis and risk avoidance and mitigation techniques as well as some more intimate conversations with Stephen on his experiences with risk.
Just because you are working in a waterfall organization doesn't mean you can't be Agile. Join Dave Prior as he walks you through a case study on implementing Scrum in a waterfall environment. He offers some key practices and data points that will enable you to be successful in both keeping the team productive and providing the information needed to build trust and confidence with the Project Sponsors and Senior Executives you need to support your Agile implementation.
Dave Prior explains how to use the teachings in Sun Tzu's masterpiece for success at work. While this presentation is geared towards in your role as a project manager, many of the lessons can be applied in other facets of day-to-day life to help you subtly manipulate a situation towards a desired outcome.
Michael Wood lays out 30+ years of experience in the trenches in this one-of-a-kind presentation. He shows you how to focus on business objectives, write practical project plans, cope with changing priorities, deliver continuous and effective communication, build confidence in your project management abilities, and most important...make it all look easy.
It is the projects that an organization undertakes that determine its strategy. Without a tie to execution, a company's stated strategy is no more than words on paper. Join Jennifer Tharp in this video presentation to learn about how to use strategic planning in the execution of your projects and turn vision into reality.
Jennifer Tharp moves past the current CSR fads and explains why you, as a project manager, should be concerned with corporate social responsibility. Learn how responsible and sustainable projects have a real impact on the success of your projects, your business, and ultimately your career.

Citing the exorbitant costs involved, the Cherokee City Council last week refused an offer by the Cherokee Airport Authority to relocate the former Head Start building for use as a City Parks maintenance facility.
A letter was to be sent to the Airport Authority thanking them for the offer, while politely refusing the request.
The Council had previously discussed at length a proposal that would relocate the existing Head Start facility north of the City Airport to a site adjacent to the City Industrial Well Field south of Lake Street on the west of Koser Spring Lake Park.
The 4,200 square-foot building would have been utilized as the maintenance facility and storage for the City's Parks Department to replace the aged, hodge-podge, flood-damaged maintenance facilities currently used by the Parks Department.
The City has been exploring construction options for the aged, flood-damaged Park maintenance building and Yacht Club for about two years, and earlier this year a voluntary citizens' committee stepped up to spearhead a community grass-roots effort to fund and build a new Yacht Club in the Park.
However, this left the City with the task of developing a plan for the Park maintenance building after the Council ruled that the architect's preliminary estimates were exorbitant and questioned the proposed construction and financing plan.
As was proposed, the Cherokee Airport Authority, which now owns the Head Start facility, would have relocated the building to the new site and the City would bear the cost to prepare footings and foundation, bring utilities to the site, and install the necessary overhead doors and any other remodeling work.
The Airport Authority also asked the City to be responsible for the removal of the concrete floor at the existing Head Start site.
According to City Administrator Don Eikmeier, the City's costs for the project would total an estimated $160,000, plus the cost of preparing the new and old sites and equipping the building properly, including overhead doors, concrete, etc.
The 4,200 square foot Head Start building is approximately double the size of the initially proposed 2,400 square foot building that the City and Parks Superintendent Duane Mummert originally planned for.
The Airport Authority purchased the Head Start building and surrounding property because the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) ruled it was in the flight path. Much of the funds utilized by the Authority are from Federal Grants, which establishes the ground (and air) rules.
Airport Authority spokesman Kent Wenck told the City it would cost the Authority $110,000 to move the building.
According to Wenck, the Airport Authority will simply demolish the Head Start building and clear the site if the City was not interested in it.
In other action, the Council nixed a proposal by Cherokee Golf & Country Club spokesman Ken File for dust control on the graveled portion of City Street that extends north of North 11th Street past the Country Club.
File said dust control was a problem for the Club and golfers and controlling it was especially critical during tournaments held there, including the annual Sioux Valley Amateur Men's Match-Play Golf Tournament that was played last weekend and annually attracts hundreds of visitors and golfers and their families to town.
File emphasized that such tourneys and the golf course are actually valuable community attractions and should differ from a possible private property owner making the same request for dust control on streets/roads not hard-surfaced.
However, the Council refused the request, while reasoning that they did not want to open the door for similar requests by other residents in the future.
The Council also authorized a City Library contract for $16,500 to electronically digitize all Cherokee newspapers now on microfilm at the Library. Library Director Mary Jo Ruppert advised the Council that the costs will be paid for through donations, memorial monies, and contributions from the Cherokee County Archives.
The Council also approved the second reading and waived the third reading of an Ordinance creating a City Parks & Recreation Advisory Board, and approved a Resolution adding two streetlights in Koser Spring Lake Park.

The relationship between the zeros of best approximations and differentiability
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: We examine the relationship between the analytic properties of continuous functions on and the location of the roots of the sequence of best polynomial approximations. We show that if the approximants have no zeros in a certain ellipse then the function being approximated must be analytic in this ellipse. We also show that the rate at which the zeros of the th approximant tend to the interval determines the global differentiability of the function under consideration.

YUMMERS! I can't believe no one has rated this in so long. The spice combination on the seared chops was excellent, and the gravy was to die for. I did up the Dijon using 2 tablespoons. Served over Spaetzle with mixed vegetables and a cucumber tomato salad on the side. My partner and I couldn't get enough of the gravy. Thank you for sharing!
It wasn't what I expected. It was a bit more entailed than my usual week-night dinner, but I wanted to try something new with pork. It wasn't as flavorful as I thought it would be - I think I would use more dijon if I were to make it again, but I'm not sure I will.
Loved this! I seared the chops but added them back (along w/ the juice from the chops) to the finished sauce and simmered, covered for 5 minutes. I used light sour cream and the result was a very tangy, light, sauce and very tender pork chops. I too served it w/ mashed potatoes. Delicious and simple to put together. Thanks!
I tried this recipe for dinner tonight. It didn't quite meet my expectations. It was somewhat more spicy than I like. I plan to try it again in a couple of weeks or so and modify it so that it may better suit my taste buds.
I would rate this a 10 if I could! I used italian seasoning on the chops but otherwise followed the recipe. I think using the beef broth really adds to the flavor. DH, who really isn't that fond of porkchops, said it was delicious. I, too, made creamed potatoes. Thanks for a great recipe that I'll will use again and again.
Excellent recipe! Easy to make also. DH really enjoyed it..he had seconds. I made my cream potatoes My Cream Potatoes in place of making noodles to serve with the porkchops. Delicious Thanks for sharing a great porkchop recipe.
What can I add to the reviews already on here - True comfort food - Moist tender chops, super gravy. I like the idea of serving them with noodles but had potatoes on hand and that gravy fork mashed into the potato is wonderful! Thanks Lorac another winner
wow Carol, talk about comfort food!! This was it, DH loved it and we will have it often. The chops were tender and delicious, never used sage on pork chops before; we sure will again, the marjoram/sage combination was soo tasty. I used no fat sour cream with the onions, Dejohn and mushrooms, delicious gravy, served it over mashed red potatoes and steamed broccoli. Thanks for a very comforting meal!!
This was very good. We liked it a lot. Thanks!
Luscious Lorac, that's all I can say! This was quick, easy, yummy and resulted in very moist, tender pork chops. We bought bone-in shoulder chops, removed the bones, and cut them each into three pieces. Also used fresh instead of dried herbs (worked very well) and loads of fresh parsley to finish.

Prep boys hoops: Cage, Trinity get first win
FRANKLINTON, La. — Trinity Episcopal's varsity boys' basketball team was on the verge of dropping their second game of the season after being down by six points to Bowling Green School with approximately five minutes left in the fourth quarter.
But Tanner Cage and the Saints took control, going on a 17-3 run that turned a 37-31 deficit into a 48-40 victory over the Buccaneers Monday afternoon.
And that was after the Saints blew an 11-point halftime lead thanks largely to a third quarter in which they scored just two points.
"The third quarter has been a problem for us. Fatigue has something to do with that being that some players were playing football," Saints head coach Edwin White said. "The fourth quarter we went to a press. A lot of turnovers gave us some momentum at the end."
Cage was a big part of the Saints' amazing come-from-behind win as he led them in scoring with 21 points, including a pair of 3-pointers. Tommy McCoy had a solid game as he scored 11 points while Garrett Vinson made one 3-pointer and chipped in with five points. Brandon Brooks had what White called his best game of the young season as he pulled down nine rebounds to go with four points.
"Tanner played an emotional, physical, very up-tempo game. His presence alone made a difference," White said. "I think (Brooks) finally understands his role and as time goes on, he's going to get better and better."
For the most part, Trinity played well on both ends of the court. But there was one player for Bowling Green the Saints had a difficult time guarding, and that was Mack McEleeven, who made five 3-pointer and finished with a game-high 26 points and almost led the Buccaneers back from a 28-17 deficit at the break.
"We played a very good defensive game. We did a good job of blocking out on second-shot opportunities," White said. "We have a good bench. We can start five and then put in five. The last couple of years, we were only seven- or eight-deep. Now we're 10 or 11 deep."
Trinity Episcopal (1-1) next plays at Silliman Institute on Tuesday, Nov. 27.
Copiah Academy 59, ACCS 52
NATCHEZ — Copiah Academy outscored ACCS in each of the first three quarters and held on to beat Adams County Christian School Monday night.
"We had opportunities, and we didn't capitalize on them. They had opportunities and they did capitalize on them," Rebels head coach Richy Spears said. "No. 23 (Quick), he's a good post player. We didn't have an answer for him inside. We didn't give a three. They just beat us inside."
Ty Quick had a game-high 23 points for Copiah, which led 46-36 at the end of the third.
ACCS (0-4) was led by Trey Fleming with 13 points while Ryan Strong and Tyler Stockstill had 10 points each. The Rebels host Bowling Green School today.
Centreville Academy 62,
Amite School Center 31
CENTREVILLE — Corey Gauledn led a balanced scoring attack for Centreville Academy as the Tigers gave first-year head coach Mike Swindle his first win as they used two big quarters to defeat the Amite School Center Rebels Monday night.
Michael Keith scored eight points while Jake Darden, Dustin Williams, Cody Peak and Matt Darden poured in six points each for Centreville, which jumped out a 26-4 lead after one quarter of play and then outscored Amite School Center 18-4 in the third quarter for a commanding 47-18 advantage. The Rebels were led by Clayton Causey with 11 points and Corey Kelton had nine points.
Centreville Academy (1-1) makes a visit to Natchez to take on Cathedral on Monday, Nov. 26.

Jeff Jordan leaves UCF team
Updated: January 8, 2012, 9:33 PM ETAssociated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. -- Jeff Jordan, the oldest son of Michael Jordan, is leaving the Central Florida basketball team for what he says are "personal reasons."
The school announced the decision Saturday night but did not provide further details.
The senior guard didn't travel with the team for its 81-63 win at East Carolina Saturday night. Jordan's younger brother and Knights guard Marcus Jordan, a junior, remains with the team.

Everything ramps up when it is time to go back to school. There are supplies to buy, schedules to pick up and calendars that suddenly look like battle plans to move troops across Europe.
According to Michael Kast, who leads Family Ministry at Southeast, preparation is the key to peace amid busy schedules.
"If you find yourself stuck in the crush of school, it's too late to do much until Thanksgiving," he said. "My wife has a saying that if you fail to plan, you plan to fail."
Amid the busyness of life, it's so easy to crowd God out. Kast suggests sitting down in mid-August to set priorities to guard family time and time with God.
It's easy to say and harder to do. Kast's wife Jill has a message for families who want to manage their time yet find themselves caught in a race for day-to-day survival.
"A lot of families who think they're prepared suddenly get overwhelmed with life and find themselves dropping in bed at the end of the day," Jill Kast said. "Michael and I have finished the day saying, 'The kids are fed, clothed and educated. We didn't advance today, but we didn't die, either.' That's OK. There is always time for course correction. Look for a time when softball or band or soccer or whatever is pressing you is over to do that."
Here are a few tips to make life more manageable.
Include God in your calendar.
Before school begins, decide how your family will make time for God. For some, it may be a commitment to go to church every weekend instead of occasionally. It might be to pray before meals, to serve somewhere together once a month, start family devotions or join a small group or weekend group. Prioritize what will most benefit your family and commit to it.
Pray together.
Establish time for family prayer. Pick out times to pray for other families, for needs within your own family, for our nation and our church. Breakfast, dinner or bedtime may be your best time.
Manage television schedules.
The television need not be the centerpiece of free time. Kast said recording favorite television programs has changed evening schedules.
"Often at the end of the day I want to wind down with a TV show," he said. "Now we DVR the programs we want to watch, spend time with the kids instead of watching TV and watch it later without commercials."
Schedule time for church, ministry and family events.
Once the demands of school, homework and sports fill the calendar, it's difficult to make time for retreats and special events in student or elementary ministry. Check the church calendar and Days Ahead to make room for big happenings. Save the date for Bible and Beach, Believe, short-term mission trips and family outings.
Serve together in simple ways.
Serving together builds strong ties within the family. It can be as simple as filling a bag with school supplies for the Basic Needs Drive or volunteering to pick up the filled bags people leave behind their cars. Many ministries within Local Missions welcome help.
Kast said his family shops and prepares bags for Basic Needs Drives.
"We recently went shopping for back-to-school supplies," he said. "When we try to get our kids to shop for their own supplies, they are less than excited, but when we take the list for other kids to the store as a family and divvy up the items, they love it. That teaches them to be excited about giving to someone else."
Plan a family retreat at least once a year.
Use time away as a family to reaffirm core family values, create a family mission statement and adopt a family verse. Make it fun as well as productive.
During your retreat, evaluate the spiritual health of your family by asking if things are better or worse than last year. It might be a good time to give children in the family a new Bible on their reading level.
Stretch as a family by going on a family mission trip.
Many mission trips are family-friendly and affordable. Serving together changes family dynamics.
"Last spring break, we decided to go on a family mission trip to Knoxville, Tenn., to serve special needs adults with one of our U.S. Mission partners," Kast said. "On the way home, we talked about that trip. Our kids had been to Daytona Beach and to Disney. They said the trip to Knoxville was way better than the beach. My question is, 'Why did I spend $700 in one day to make Disney happen?'"
Make plans now to attend the Faithful Families Parenting Conference at Southeast Sept. 7 and 8.
The conference will feature Senior Pastor Dave Stone, along with Southeast member Brad DeVries, who will speak on how to set priorities to be the spiritual leader in your home.
"This Parenting Conference is shaping up to be something special," Kast said. "There will be practical teaching for every parent. The goal is to encourage, equip and challenge parents on every level from those parenting for the first time, to veterans, to single parents, to those adopting or blending their families."
Eat dinner together at least three times a week.
Family dinners are vital to strengthening the family. Make them fun. According to research, families that eat together stay together, and benefits multiply. Children who eat with their families have lower rates of smoking, drinking, illegal drug use and better health and better grades than those who eat on the run.
Stay in touch.
Send text messages, put sticky notes on doors, mirrors or car seats, write quick notes, send emails and give cards to remind your children that they are loved.

Friday's letters

The choice is clear
After watching the first debate for president it has become apparent that Barack Obama and Mitt Romney are both qualified and likable men with nice families. However, their likability and their families are not up for election, the direction of our nation is.
Both candidates laid out goals in varying degrees of specificity for the voters to evaluate in the quiet of their own homes. One candidate believes in the "trickle-down" effect of the federal government and the other believes in the reverse, a more limited role for government. In John F. Kennedy's 1961 inaugural speech, he made a statement that was a challenge to every American then, and now carries even more meaning for our direction as a nation: "Ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what you can do for your country."
Ask yourself: Do you want your federal government making decisions on nearly every aspect of your life? Or do you want to take more control of your destiny? Obama is advocating more "trickle-down" federal government decision-making and control, while Romney is advocating a more limited federal government role by returning decision-making and control to local governments and you, as was the intent of the Founding Fathers. The choice is clear: Vote for Mitt Romney!
Jack W. Milholland Jr.
Two Romneys
Mitt Romney's debate performance was a tour de force. He appeared poised, reasonable, persuasive and, above all, a pragmatic, conservative moderate.
Romney won this debate at the expense of the truth. For months, he has advocated a 20 percent across-the-board tax cut, which amounts to $5 trillion over 10 years. Four times during the debate, Romney said he did not advocate a $5 trillion tax cut. For months, Romney has advocated the repeal of Obamacare. During the debate, he said he only wanted to repeal the bad parts.
Romney has campaigned to repeal the Dodd-Frank legislation. At the debate, he said such regulation was required and that he only wanted to repeal the mistakes and unintended consequences resulting from the enactment.
Here is a candidate who until Wednesday got the Republican nomination and campaigned by running to the right of Barry Goldwater, and who shows up at the first presidential debate running to the left of Nelson Rockefeller.
The Romney who appeared at the debate was not the Romney who campaigned as the Republican nominee. He spent an hour and a half running away from everything he has been saying for the last year and a half. My question is, after this performance, how can you believe anything Romney says?
Richard F. Kessler
Body language said it all
Barack Obama was terrible Wednesday night. His body language said it all. You could have turned off the sound and seen him lose.
He kept his head down, seldom looked at Mitt Romney and even appeared annoyed. He has to do better next time or he will lose the election. Romney lied, but did it with such ease, and with such good body language, that it was all believable. I hope the president learned his lesson. Democratic strategist James Carville was correct when he said Romney looked like he wanted to be there and Obama looked like he wanted to be somewhere else. If Obama doesn't change his attitude and body language, he will be somewhere else -- out of the White House.
Patricia Tway
Not children of one God
At Wednesday night's presidential debate, Mitt Romney said "We're all children of the same God."
Three reactions:
1. He displayed a lack of sensitivity to the religious beliefs of others.
2. He is ignorant of the fact that millions of people do not consider themselves to be the children of the same God, and certainly not the God of those who are Christian, such as the former governor, a Mormon.
3. And, most important, his statement gives rise to a concern that he would not be diligent in the effort to keep church and state separate, were he to be elected president.
Roy Ingham
Obama light on his feet
On Wednesday night, Barack Obama did a great job of dancing around every issue thrown at him. In fact, he would have made a good boxer. He managed to block each blow thrown at him.
When Mitt Romney raised the issue that more Americans rely on food stamps during Obama's presidency, it was ignored. When Romney raised the issue of one in six Americans living in poverty, it was ignored. When Romney raised the issue of half of college graduates being unable to find a job, it was ignored.
When Romney raised the issue of several environmental companies going bankrupt after the federal government gave millions to them, it was ignored.
The president is not much on debating, but he would have made a great middleweight.
Alvin B. Greenberg
Where are tax savings?
The debate was useful. Mitt Romney's and Barack Obama's tax solutions were clear and identifiably different. But, I have questions about reduced taxes. The Bush tax cuts have been in place for a long time now. Why isn't the economy recovering? Could it be that lower taxes are not the answer to recovering our economy and getting more people back to work? What are businesses doing with the savings -- taking bigger profits? Where are the tax savings going?

Straight folks had Home Improvement; the gays got Modern Family. Heteros enjoyed sexual freedom for eons; gays got slammed by Prop 8. Straight porn fans have Videobox, one of the 'net's unparalleled success stories and a genuinely legendary porn site; gays get Videobox Men. While surely not an insulting shafting, Videobox Men nonetheless struggles to live up to the hype generated by its pussy-hounding big brother. At the low monthly cost of just fifteen bucks, though, it's going to be really hard to pass up a membership to one of the 'net's largest, most fruitful, and most interactive and community-based gay hardcore sites, which makes Videobox Men a hit in my book.
While she can't go out drinking with you after work on a Friday night, an 18-year-old babe can be a hell of a lot of fun. Porn Pros token teen site, 18 Years Old proves this with over 300 exclusive hardcore scenes that range from uninhibited party hookups to slow, seductive erotica that'll just as likely please your lady-friend as they will you. Although, much like the young women it features, 18 Years Old is far from perfect, it's certainly getting better and better as it ages.
You may not have heard the name Brandon Iron before, but it's almost inconceivable that you haven't enjoyed one of his frenetic blowjob scenes, the best of which have been assembled and arranged for you at Load My Mouth. Part of the illustrious Pornstar Network, Iron's Load My Mouth series takes pornstars, experienced and amateur, plugs their faces with his boner, amps up the intensity level, and finishes off by heaving from his sack a monstrous load that the recipient then guzzles down with glee. In essence, Load My Mouth is a site on which you'll see Brandon Iron loading the mouths of pornstar hotties with his ejaculate. Now tell me this guy doesn't have one of the world's greatest occupations. Go on.
Me, I've never managed to have sex underwater and while I didn't think the act could get any more appealing, Sex Underwater has just proven that it can. Filled with bikini-clad babes floating around under the surface of a swimming pool, scuba tank, or beachside body of water, Sex Underwater not only proves that 'wetter' often does mean 'wilder' and that pornstars, bless 'em, seem capable of fucking under the most bizarre of circumstances. Ditch the dry land humping, folks, and dive into Sex Underwater, where the water might be a little bit unhygienic but clean enough to be extremely inviting.
If you're a man, you might find no need for a site like Men POV, not if you're fucking dozens of different hunks and cuties every month, working their holes and cocks until you're satisfied and they're in an Uber headed home since you're doing it all from your own point-of-view naturally. Then again, not all of can manage a steady stream of new asses to fuck, making Gay Room network site Men POV a very appetizing look at hardcore gay sex and the gorgeous men that partake of it. With sluggish updates keeping the archive smaller than most members would like, Men POV has some work to do, but isn't far off dazzling your vision and devastating your libido with its exclusive on-one-one encounters.
Japanese pornography is rightly regarded as some of the wildest and weirdest, most experimental and outlandish adult entertainment on the planet, so imagine the excitement you'll feel when staring at JAV HQ's front page and noticing the word "uncensored" featured so prominently. You read that right, fuck fans, JAV HQ is a totally uncensored and extremely colorful look at Japanese porn. Struggling to add 1080p HD videos and lacking much in the way of exclusive content, JAV HQ is hardly flawless, though it does provide some truly exceptional Asian porn - totally uncensored, of course.
In BDSM porn it's usually a man who pulls his hand back for a blistering slap of the ass that leaves his partner red, raw, and begging for mercy. Trust Fetish Network to fuck with convention, though, and unleash its boldest site yet: Strapon Squad. Handing the dicks over to the foxiest young bitches in porn today, Strapon Squad gives women the chance to be dominated, devastated, and utterly destroyed by, well, each other! If that doesn't make for the raunchiest, most daring take on lesbian sex yet seen in porn, I don't know what does!
Littering the countryside like abandoned Circuit City stores, glory holes welcome those in search of a truly anonymous sexual experience. Looking for an anonymous and discreet suck job? Afraid your politician husband will object to you openly blowing thirty or forty guys a night? Well, thank the load for inspiring sites like Glory Hole Secrets, where you'll marvel at the level to which some women will stoop just to get a taste of eighteen or nineteen different wads. With High Definition videos capturing every sordid detail and DNA-containing drop, Glory Hole Secrets is sexy, sordid, scandalous fun.

We propose a new hypothesis for the origin of protoplanetary discs with large inner holes (or gaps), so-called transition discs. Our gas disc model takes into account layered accretion, in which poorly ionized low-viscosity dead zones are sandwiched by high-viscosity surface layers, and photoevaporative winds induced by X-rays from the central stars. We find that a gap opens at a radius outside a dead zone, if the mass-loss rate due to photoevaporative winds exceeds the mass accretion rate in the dead zone region. Since the dead zone survives even after the gap opens, mass accretion on to the central star continues for a long time. This model can reproduce large gap sizes and high mass accretion rates seen in observed transition discs.
