How Southwest Washington senators voted on the same-sex marriage bill:
Don Benton, R-Vancouver: No
Craig Pridemore, D-Vancouver: Yes
Joseph Zarelli, R-Ridgefield: No
OLYMPIA– The Washington state Senate on Wednesday passed a bill that would legalize same-sex marriage, setting the stage for the state to become the seventh to allow gay and lesbian couples to wed.
How Southwest Washington senators voted on the same-sex marriage bill:
Don Benton, R-Vancouver: No
Craig Pridemore, D-Vancouver: Yes
Joseph Zarelli, R-Ridgefield: No
The measure now heads to the House, which is expected to approve it. Gov. Chris Gregoire supports the measure and has said she will sign it into law, though opponents have promised to challenge it at the ballot with a referendum.
The packed public galleries burst into applause as the Senate passed the measure on a 28-21 vote Wednesday night after nearly an hour and a half of debate. Four Republicans crossed party lines and voted with majority Democrats for the measure. Three Democrats voted against it.
Democratic Sen. Ed Murray, the bill's sponsor, said he knew same-sex marriage "is as contentious any issue that this body has considered in its history."
Lawmakers who vote against gay marriage "are not, nor should they be accused of bigotry," he said.
"Those of us who support this legislation are not, and we should not be accused of, undermining family life or religious freedom," said Murray, a gay lawmaker from Seattle who has spearheaded past gay rights and domestic partnership laws in the state. "Marriage is how society says you are a family."
Nearly a dozen amendments were introduced, including several that passed that strengthen legal protections for religious groups and organizations.
Sen. Dan Swecker, R-Rochester, argued that the proposed law alters the definition of marriage and "will lead to the silencing of those who believe in traditional marriage."
Even though a referendum clause amendment was rejected, opponents have already promised to file a challenge, which can't be done until after it is passed by the full Legislature and signed into law by Gregoire. Opponents then must turn in 120,577 signatures by June 6.
If opponents aren't able to collect enough signatures, gay and lesbian couples would be able to be wed starting in June. Otherwise, they would have to wait until the results of a November election.
Before last week, it wasn't certain the Senate would have the support to pass the measure, as a handful of Democrats remained undecided.
But after the first public hearing on the issue Jan. 23, a previously undecided Democratic senator, Mary Margaret Haugen of Camano Island, said she would be the 25th and deciding vote in support of the bill, all but ensuring its passage.
Gay marriage opponent Jane Sterland, 56, stood outside the Senate gallery before the debate started. Sterland said she was disappointed by the light turnout of same-sex marriage foes.
"It saddens me that there aren't more Christians here tonight," she said. "I'm just very grieved about this whole thing. I want to be here for prayer support against this issue."
Alex Guenser, a 26-year-old engineer, drove down to Olympia from his Redmond home with his boyfriend to watch the Senate debate.
"I feel like this is the hill, the crest of the marriage equality fight. And after this passes (in the Senate), it's all going to be smoother sailing from now on," Guenser said. "I'm really excited to have Washington pass this. I'm excited for my state."
Same-sex marriage is legal in New York, Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont and the District of Columbia.
Lawmakers in New Jersey and Maryland are expected to debate gay marriage this year, and Maine could see a gay marriage proposal on the November ballot.
The debate over same-sex marriage in Washington state has changed significantly since lawmakers passed Washington's Defense of Marriage Act in 1998, which banned gay marriage. The constitutionality of DOMA was ultimately upheld by the state Supreme Court in 2006, but earlier that year, a gay civil rights measure passed after nearly 30 years of failure.
The quick progression of domestic partnership laws in the state came soon after, with a domestic partnership law in 2007, and two years of expansion that culminated in 2009 with the so-called "everything but marriage law" that was upheld by voters after opponents filed a referendum to challenge it.
Under the measure, the more than 9,300 couples currently registered in domestic partnerships would have two years to either dissolve their relationship or get married. Domestic partnerships that aren't ended prior to June 30, 2014, would automatically become marriages.
Domestic partnerships would remain for senior couples where at least one partner is 62 or older. That provision was included to help seniors who don't remarry out of fear they could lose certain pension or Social Security benefits.

Code of Conduct
The Alcatel-Lucent Code of Conduct is the cornerstone of the company's Ethics & Compliance Management System. It sets out the company's standards for ethical business conduct and is binding on all employees globally in their daily activities, including relations with competitors, suppliers, shareholders, partners and customers.
The standards in the Code of Conduct are based not only on the laws and regulations in force, but also on the notions of integrity, respect, equity, diversity and ethics. Download the Code of Conduct (English) - PDF >
The Code of Conduct goes together with a CEO message available in 22 languages.
Global Human Rights Policy
In June 2011, a significant milestone in the area of Human Rights has been reached by the release of the United Nations (UN) Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. They established the UN Protect, Respect and Remedy Framework — the so-called "Ruggie Principles" — which clarifies the responsibility of governments to protect human rights and the responsibility of the business community to respect human rights in their global business operations and eco-system.
As a result of today's changing geopolitical landscape, Alcatel-Lucent has updated its Human Rights Policy, designed to ensure proper treatment of our workforce and interaction with external stakeholders around the world. In parallel, Alcatel-Lucent will continue to work with key industry stakeholders to dialogue on our common responsibilities to human rights across the world.
On March 12, 2013 the Industry Dialogue launched the Telecommunications Industry Dialogue on Freedom of Expression and Privacy Guiding Principles. These principles address the issues of privacy and freedom of expression as they relate to the telecommunications sector, specifically exploring the interaction and boundaries between a government's duty to protect human rights and the corporate responsibility of telecommunications companies to respect human rights.
Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) Policy
Alcatel-Lucent is committed to operating in a manner that protects the environment and the health and safety of employees, contractors, customers and the communities where the company operates.
Purchasing Policies
Consistent with our Code of Conduct and Human Rights Policy, Alcatel-Lucent is fully committed to promoting Corporate Responsibility (CR) within its supplier base.
Alcatel-Lucent recently deepened its Supply Chain CSR expectations in requiring application of the standards included in the EICC Supplier Code of Conduct (revision 5), which replaces the Alcatel-Lucent Statement of Business Principles. In aligning with an industry reference, we facilitate adoption by suppliers and improve cascading of our CSR requirements in our Supply Chain. Alcatel-Lucent expects all suppliers, contractors, subcontractors and other third parties providing products, services and/or software to Alcatel-Lucent entities ("Suppliers") to meet the labor, environmental health & safety, management system and ethical standards expressed in the EICC Supplier Code of Conduct (revision 5). All contracts with Suppliers must include a specific clause whereby the Supplier must acknowledge that the Supplier has been made aware of the EICC Supplier Code of Conduct (revision 5) and that the Supplier agrees to apply the same principles as the ones described in the EICC Supplier Code of Conduct in the Supplier's business. Suppliers also commit to promoting the principles described in this code in their own supply chain.
This policy applies to all Alcatel-Lucent organizations and all subsidiaries, affiliates and joint ventures over which the company has management control.
Conflict Minerals Policy
In some parts of the world, the exploitation and trade of minerals used to manufacture telecommunications equipment — such as tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold — helps finance or benefit armed groups, often with serious social and environmental consequences.
Alcatel-Lucent published its Conflict Minerals Policy to address the Human Rights and environmental issues connected with the mining and trading of tantalum, tin tungsten and gold which are used in the electronics industry Supply Chain.
Export Policy
Alcatel-Lucent complies with the export laws and regulations in the countries where we conduct business.
Quality Policy
Through our Quality Policy, we ensure that everything we do must be focused on becoming the trusted partner for our customers.
Privacy Policy
This Policy applies to all business activities of Alcatel-Lucent S.A., Alcatel- Lucent International and all of their subsidiaries, collectively "Alcatel-Lucent", and to all Alcatel-Lucent web sites that are operated by or on behalf of Alcatel-Lucent and/or link to this Global Privacy and Data Protection Policy.
Tax Policy
In each of the countries where it operates, Alcatel-Lucent group promptly pays over to taxing authorities, by the due date, the taxes that it owes. In order to achieve this, the Group applies the principles set forth in its "Tax Policy". The Tax Policy is available in 8 languages.

That means you can soak up the joie de vivre in this charming waterside village packed with French colonial architecture and delectable French cuisine. No complaints there! It's also full of craft shops, galleries and cafes, and is an awesome spot to squeeze in some cute-as marine life sightings. So don't skip this amazeballs but chilled town just 75km from Christchurch – book one of our Akaroa hotels today and lock that baby in! As if being French wasn't cool enough, Akaroa is also special for its unique location nestled in the heart of an ancient volcano on Banks Peninsula – the South Island's most fascinating volcanic feature. At the edge of the deep and sheltered waters of Akaroa Harbour, the town centre is best explored on foot to soak up the chillin' vibes and take it all in. To get some history to explain the beautiful sights you're wandering past, including many historic cottages, duck into the local museum – it's pretty fascinating and explains how the French colonised this town despite British presence. But before you get too far, be sure to drop into the tourist info centre on the corner of Lavaud and Rue Balguerie for maps and brochures to get your Akaroa holiday swingin' in full motion. Any exploration of the beautiful Akaroa will take you to the beautiful bays along the harbour. This is your gateway to a world of nature that existed long before the French arrived with their delicious morsels of pastry. Take a harbour cruise to catch glimpses of the native dolphins, penguins and fur seals, or hire a kayak and explore it on your own terms. Not only are these waters home to the rarest and smallest marine dolphin, but Flea Bay in particular is home to the largest little penguin colony on mainland New Zealand. Now that's something to brag about when you get home! But of course, food is just as good a reason to make the short trek to Akaroa. The local restaurants have a focus on fine French cuisine, and there's a butcher, baker and chorizo maker to keep you stocked up for picnics. Cafes, restaurants and bars proudly pour out the boutique local wines and micro-brewery beers, and often serve local cheeses too. Then there's the super popular Akaroa Fish and Chip shop, and if you'd rather get in the kitchen yourself, the Akaroa Cooking School is a top-notch spot to learn to cook the local cuisine! Akaroa is a beautiful spot by the water to relax and sock up the free-flowing French vibes and get some sweet wildlife encounters. And best of all, it's only just over an hour's drive from Christchurch! Don't skip this destie on your New Zealand South Island adventure.

Wiley: Playtime Is OverImportCD
Price: $14.50

Product Details
AKA: Eskiboy
Producers: Wiley; JME; Maniac
Tags: U.K. Garage; Grime; Electronic
SummaryWiley, the pioneer, the founding father, the maverick, the relentless innovator, releases his brand new (and possibly last) album. A blazing return to the experimental crucible of the East London music known as grime, Playtime Is Over offers everything that is most brutal, cutting edge, funny, clever, terrifying and moving about the sound and the world which created it.
Over the course of 15 tracks, Wiley boasts of his pre-eminence, tells stories of his life and background, reveals a sensitive side that won't surprise anyone who has met him, bigs up Bow and, in general, splatters his life and thoughts and feelings over beats in a way which hasn't been bettered in the short but incident-packed history of a scene whose mainstream acceptance is barely five years old. The majority of the music on Playtime Is Over is produced by the man himself, with occasional assistance from the likes of JME ('No Qualms') and Maniac (the aural assault of 'Bow E3').
The handful of guest MCs and vocalists on the album were equally carefully selected; one-time rival and rising star Scorcher lends his musical flow to 'Fly Boy,' Jukie Mundo's ultratight delivery rails over 'Stars' and the dulcet tones of Rachel provides the chorus to 'Come Lay With Me.' Rather than the "pop" experiments that were forced on Wiley while producing Roll Deep's In At The Deep End, here he revels in his ability to weld together screeching keyboards, elastic bass drops and pounding beats into instantly catchy, hugely more-ish bursts of noise. Right from the opening bars of '50/50' you know you're in for a treat.
Wiley is a true maverick who has recently announced that he will retire from MCing after the release of Playtime Is Over and, if this is true, the grime world will be an infinitely poorer place without the many stories and legends the man has inspired.

Till Evonomics came along, I was the person discussing Smith the most - how the left misunderstands him and the right has betrayed him. Now I should retire my role, as scores of economists and sages have a place to talk about this vital issue - how we can save our mixed-pragmatic economy and civilization from fanatic over-simplifiers.
How to prevent feudalism - the error of 99% of societies across 6000 years - from spoiling our creative, flat-open-fair competitive system. How to be practical, creative and compassionate - like Adam Smith.
And so it begins… Resettling the first American 'Climate Refugees' The first allocation of federal tax dollars to relocate an entire community – the Isle de Jean Charles in Louisiana.
Technique: I went out in the yard early in the morning, hoping to catch some Sweat Bees that might be a little lethargic. When I found this one I simply held on to the flower's stem with my left index finger and thumb, and then rested the lens on that same hand to keep the scene steady.
Tech Specs: Canon 80D (F11, 1/250, ISO 400) + a Canon MP-E 65mm macro lens (about 2.5x) + a diffused MT-24EX (both flash heads on the Canon flash mount, E-TTL metering). This is a single, uncropped, frame taken hand held.

Letter of Introduction from New Principal
Assalamo Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu Respected Tawheed Parents,
Congratulations on the successful completion of the 2014-2015 year. InshaAllah you receive this letter in the strongest of Iman and best of health, Aameen. It is with great pleasure that I write this letter of introduction to you as the newly appointed principal of Tawheed Center of Detroit School. I feel truly honored to join the Tawheed family again. I have been a part of the Tawheed community for almost twenty years. Two of my three sons attended Tawheed when they were in the elementary grades. My professional experiences in the private sector of education influenced my decision to connect with my roots, and ensure that a school that is on the Quran and Sunnah must excel and grow in the right direction. I graduated from Wayne State University with a Degree in Elementary Education with an endorsement to teach Language Arts K-8 grade students. Five years ago I completed a Master's Degree in Education and received an endorsement in Technology Integration K-12 from University of Michigan.
I began my professional career of teaching and administration in Michigan at Tawheed and then, ten years ago, moved on to Crescent Academy International in Canton. Subsequently, I have contributed to the Crescent community in multiple ways. I have been an integration coach, a creative arts teacher, and literacy week and literacy night coordinator along with being a language arts teacher in the middle school. Furthermore, I have had the honor of being a part of an External Review Team with AdvancEd, an organization that accredits schools all over the world. While away from Tawheed, I also worked at the MCWS Sunday School as an assistant principal. I feel well equipped to InshaAllah guide our school on the road to success and growth.
I live in Canton with my husband and four children. I have three sons and a daughter. My daughter has been attending Tawheed since Preschool and she will be in seventh grade next year InshaAllah. I enjoy painting and teaching it too.
I have an open door policy, so please feel free to email me with any questions and concerns. Enjoy a relaxing and productive summer.

EPA and Bed Bugs
December 10, 2010 04:16 PM - Andy Soos, ENN
Bedbugs or bed bugs are small parasitic insects of the family Cimicidae. The term usually refers to species that prefer to feed on human blood. All insects in this family live by feeding exclusively on the blood of warm-blooded animals. The name bedbug is derived from the insect's preferred habitat of houses and especially beds or other areas where people sleep. Bedbugs, though not strictly nocturnal, are mainly active at night and are capable of feeding unnoticed on their hosts. Bedbugs have been around as long as humankind had beds. Recently there has been an upsurge in their nocturnal attacks in the US. To help find solutions to the nation's bed bug problem, the Federal Bed Bug Workgroup is convening a second national summit set for February 1-2, 2011, in Washington, D.C. The summit is open to the public and will focus on ways the federal government and others can continue to work together on management and control of these pests. The first federal bed bug summit was held by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in April 2009. Since then, EPA has helped organize the Federal Bed Bug Workgroup, which consists of EPA, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Department of Agriculture, Department of Defense, Department of Commerce, and National Institutes of Health.
The Caveman Multi-Tasker
December 10, 2010 01:19 PM - David A Gabel, ENN
Contrary to public opinion, multi-tasking is not a modern phenomenon. This uniquely human skill was around long before the era of electronic distractions. According to a study from Monica L. Smith, anthropologist at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA), it is multi-tasking itself that makes us human.
Dark Cosmos
December 9, 2010 05:59 PM - Andy Soos, ENN
Dark matter in cosmological terms is matter that is inferred to exist from gravitational effects on visible matter and background radiation, but is undetectable by emitted or scattered electromagnetic radiation. Its existence was hypothesized to account for discrepancies between measurements of the mass of galaxies, clusters of galaxies and the entire universe made through dynamical and general relativistic means, and measurements based on the mass of the visible luminous matter these objects contain: stars and the gas and dust of the interstellar and intergalactic media. It is very mysterious stuff that cannot be seen, seems to exist and has a profound effect on the universe,. Cosmologists have come up with a new way to solve their problems as to what and why it is. They are inviting scientists, including those from totally unrelated fields, to participate in a grand competition. The idea is to spur outside interest in one of cosmology's trickiest problems -- measuring the invisible dark matter and dark energy that permeate our universe. The results will help in the development of new space missions, designed to answer fundamental questions about the history and fate of our universe.
Green Diet
December 9, 2010 05:31 PM - Andy Soos, ENN
It is a buzz word nowadays. Green is good. there is green chemistry, green products, and green foods. How much green is good and how much is just lip service is another matter. Green is more that that the product is sustainable or based on recycled materials in this case. Researchers found that more than 8 out of 10 restaurant patrons surveyed in Columbus, Ohio said they would be willing to pay more to dine at green restaurants. More than 7 out of 10 said it was good for restaurants to protect the environment. The only problem is that very few restaurants market themselves as green or environmentally friendly, said Jay Kandampully, co-author of the study and professor of consumer sciences at Ohio State University.
Wild Immunity
December 8, 2010 07:02 PM - Andy Soos, ENN
Which is better to be? Wild and free or tame and domesticated? That has always been an interesting philosophical question. Professor Mark Viney and colleagues at the University of Bristol compared the immune function of wild mice who have to find their own food with that of mice bred in captivity who have all food and lodging provided for them. The study found that, by most measures, the wild mice had a greater immune function. It also found that the immune function was substantially more variable among the wild mice.
The Universal Influenza Vaccine
December 7, 2010 10:19 AM - David A Gabel, ENN
Every year, people line up to get flu vaccines at pharmacies and doctor's offices because the flu develops new strains, requiring the vaccines to be updated. What if there was a single flu vaccine you could take to last for decades against any flu virus strain? Such a thing would make yearly trips to get vaccinated obsolete and save tons of money in medical costs. Scientists at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) believe this is possible.
The Europe Electric Grid
December 7, 2010 09:39 AM - Andy Soos, ENN
Ten European countries, including Norway, have agreed to develop an offshore electricity grid at the North Sea, in a bold move that promoters say will give Europe the possibility of tapping into an even bigger source of energy than the Middle East's oil capacity. Ministers from all the ten 'North Seas Countries' signed of a 'Memorandum of Understanding' on December 3 to develop an offshore electricity grid seen as a major step forward for a single European market for electricity.
Top Solar Sources in the US and North America
December 6, 2010 02:49 PM - Andy Soos. ENN
Ideally a location for the generation of solar power should have a relatively high level of solar insolation (ability to generate a significant amount of solar energy), a fairly large amount of economic activity to result from solar energy being deployed, a reasonably low cost of energy installation, higher than average current prices for electricity, and the potential for electricity production through solar power that would offset large amounts of carbon emissions. In other words it better be sunny and near major cities or factories. In the US Hawaii, New Mexico, Colorado, Missouri, Georgia, Texas, Arkansas, Alabama, Mississippi, and Oklahoma are in the top 10 state locations according to Professor Matt Croucher from the W. P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University whose report (The Optimal Deployment of Solar Index)provides a ranking. What is reasonably in common is that all of these states are about at the same latitude. Mexico is also a solar energy opportunity without parallel, according to a report from Greentech Media (via Rhone Resch's Twitter post). The report, Solar Energy Sector, was prepared by Mexico's energy department, SENER, formally known as the Mexican Secretaría de Energía. One of the other prime areas in the world is the Sahara Desert. Again the major thing in common is latitude and availability and angle of the sun relative to the world.
Vitamin B1 as Treatment for Diabetes
December 6, 2010 09:08 AM - David A Gabel, ENN
A new study from the University of Bristol published in the Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology shows that a dietary supplement of B1 vitamins can potentially prevent heart disease for people with diabetes. Half of all people with diabetes succumb to cardiovascular disease and it is the leading cause of death for diabetes patients.

I have a repository pattern i created on top of the ado.net entity framework. When i tried to implement StructureMap to decouple my objects, i kept getting StackOverflowException (infinite loop?). Here is what the pattern looks like:
IEntityRepository where TEntity : class Defines basic CRUD members
MyEntityRepository : IEntityRepository Implements CRUD members
IEntityService where TEntity : class Defines CRUD members which return common types for each member.
MyEntityService : IEntityService Uses the repository to retrieve data and return a common type as a result (IList, bool and etc)
The problem appears to be with my Service layer. More specifically with the constructors.
public PostService(IValidationDictionary validationDictionary)
: this(validationDictionary, new PostRepository())
{ }
public PostService(IValidationDictionary validationDictionary, IEntityRepository<Post> repository)
_validationDictionary = validationDictionary;
_repository = repository;
From the controller, i pass an object that implements IValidationDictionary. And i am explicitly calling the second constructor to initialize the repository.
This is what the controller constructors look like (the first one creates an instance of the validation object):
public PostController()
_service = new PostService(new ModelStateWrapper(this.ModelState));
public PostController(IEntityService<Post> service)
_service = service;
Everything works if i don't pass my IValidationDictionary object reference, in which case the first controller constructor would be removed and the service object would only have one constructor which accepts the repository interface as the parameter.
I appreciate any help with this :) Thanks.

Kenny Perry can't figure it out, either.
The new putter? That seems to be helping. His surgically repaired knee? It feels fine, after he rushed back two years ago.
New equipment and better health aside, he can't explain why he's playing this well.
"If I knew the answer, I'd have done this 20 years ago," Perry said. "It's just going my way right now."
Perry finished with a flourish to move into a three-way tie for the lead through three rounds of the John Deere Classic on Saturday at Silvis, Ill.
Perry, seeking his third victory in five starts, birdied the 18th hole to finish at 4-under 67 for the day and 15-under 198 for the tournament. That tied him with Eric Axley (67) and Brad Adamonis (66), who at 35 is the PGA Tour's oldest rookie.
Jay Williamson (62) and second-round leader Will MacKenzie (70) were one stroke back.
Perry was at 15 under after sinking a 9-foot birdie putt on the par-4 14th before finding trouble on the 15th, hitting rough off the tee and two-putting from 9 feet for a bogey. But he made up for it on the 18th, when his approach nearly hit the pin before settling a bit less than 6 feet to its left.
That drew oohs and aahs from the crowd and even a "You the man!" from one spectator. Perry then buried the putt to complete the birdie on the par-4 hole and pull even with Axley and Adamonis.
"They may have some anxiety," Perry said. "I'm not. I'm very relaxed. I'm enjoying the ride, I'm enjoying the walk. If it goes my way, great. If it doesn't, I really don't worry too much about it. It's been awesome how I've played this year. It's been so much fun."
Axley won the Valero Texas Open in 2006, while Adamonis is seeking his first victory.
LPGA Tour's Jamie Farr Owens Corning Classic: Paula Creamer is finding out how difficult it is to win while leading from start to finish.
The rest of the field is discovering how difficult it is to catch her.
Creamer shot a 1-under 70 on Saturday, 10 more shots than she needed in the first round, but she held a four-stroke lead after three rounds.
"You know, winning wire to wire - that's difficult to do," said Creamer, who stands at 18-under 195 through 54 holes at Highland Meadows in Sylvania, Ohio. "There's a lot of pressure on you in that situation, especially when you shoot a 60 the first day and anything higher than that everybody thinks, 'What's going on? What's wrong?' "
South Korea's Eun-Hee Ji shot a 68 to cut two strokes off Creamer's lead,
PGA European Tour's Scottish Open - Mickelson six back: At Luss, Scotland, Graeme McDowell and Simon Khan shared the lead, and Phil Mickelson was six shots out after the third round.
Mickelson had five birdies and five bogeys for a 71 a day after his hole-in-one helped him make the cut.

Update Notes

Update Notes
Updated on: 04/11/2015
Since we last visited StraplessDildo...
Strapless Dildo explores supersteamy lesbian encounters and the toys these babes are using don't needs harnesses or straps. All these girls need to do is slip one side of that Realdoe or Feeldoe into their slick pussies and plunge the other end into their waiting female lover.
You might think you're just going to see some double-ended dildo sex, but that's not the case. These toys look like the real thing and from the way these foxy chicks moan as they get fucked, they seem to feel the same as well. The women are stunning and I have nothing bad to say about the camerawork. The scenes are erotic, well shot and each has a nice ambiance to it.
There are 108 movies and although updates had been weekly in the past, there's only been one new video in the last month. Here's hoping they get back to weekly. Although you can stream and download each in an MP4 format, most also come in a downloadable Windows Media format. You'll find HD or Full HD files.
If you want to have a look at these sensual matchups in more detail, you can also check out 107 high-res galleries. Downloading them in one shot is simple thanks to Zip files and they capture the action beautifully, with closeups and panned-out shots. Most of the content showcases two girls, but there's one amazing solo spread that has a girl shooting a creamy load from the dildo all over a full-length mirror.
The design is smooth and the site is easy to browse, with clear sections and large preview images. You can post comments, rate the material, add it to a favorites section and sort it by date, name and popularity. The videos and photos all have content tags and there's an advanced search engine.
You can get to know your favorite performers through the model index. Not only do they have some basic info, like age and measurements, but her content is linked to, so finding all of her material is effortless. There aren't any extras besides a blog and it hasn't been updated since October 2014.
The scenes are original and varied, the quality is terrific and the site is pleasant to use. And it all combines to give you a sensuous lesbian experience. I do hope they get back to a regular update schedule, but other than that Strapless Dildos will fill your need for sexy toy-wielding lesbians.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

It was almost like a roadie version of Critical Mass. There were so many of us we had to stop on the Diagonal Highway (Hwy 119) between Boulder and Longmont.
This was a short and slow ride in memory of Scott Kornfield and other cyclists who have died on Colorado roads. Those in the Denver area can see us on the Channel 4 news tonight. Photographers from the Denver, Longmont, and Boulder papers were also all over the place covering this event.

The Sarah Lawrence College M.F.A. in Dance is based on the premise that the art of dance is an integration of body, mind, and spirit learned through creative, technical, and intellectual practices. Students are exposed to vital aspects of the art as performers, creators, and observers and are encouraged to study broadly, widen their definitions of dance and performance, and engage in explorations of form and function. The program combines seminars in reading, writing, and research; choreographic inquiry; and a daily physical practice chosen from contemporary dance, classical ballet, African dance, yoga, t'ai chi ch'uan, and studies in world dance. All students also study experiential anatomy, dance history, lighting design and stagecraft, and music for dancers.
2015-2016 Courses
Dance/Movement Fundamentals
This class is an introduction to the basic principles of contemporary and ballet practices. The fundamentals class will develop skills basic to all movement studies, such as dynamic alignment through coordination and integration of the neuro/skeletal/muscular system, strength, balance, and basic spatial and rhythmic awareness.
Modern and Postmodern Practice
In these classes, emphasis will be on the continued development of basic skills, energy use, strength, and control relevant to the particular style of each teacher. At all levels, attention will be given to sharpening each student's awareness of time and energy and to disciplining the body to move rhythmically, precisely, and in accordance with sound anatomical principles. Intermediate and advanced students will study more complex movement patterns, investigate somatic use, and concentrate on the demands of performance.
At all levels, ballet studies will guide students in creative and expressive freedom by enhancing the qualities of ease, grace, musicality, and symmetry that define the form. To this end, we will explore alignment with an emphasis on anatomical principles and enlist the appropriate neuromuscular effort needed to dance with optimal integration of every aspect of the individual body, mind, and spirit.
Dance Training Conference
Students will meet with the instructor at least once per semester to address individual dance training issues. We will examine these issues by discussing progress, specific challenges, and short-term and long-term goals. In addition, we will develop practical strategies to achieve those goals by means of supplemental strength, flexibility, kinesthetic awareness, and coordination exercises. This course is required for all students taking a Dance Third. It is designed to support the work being done in movement practice classes, concerts, and performance projects.
Beginning Improvisation
Merge your imagination and movement potential through dance improvisation. This invaluable creative mode offers students the opportunity to recognize and develop sensations, ideas, and visions of dancing possibilities. Internal and external perceptions will be honed while looking at movement from many points of view—as an individual and in partnership with others. Beginning Improvisation is required for all students new to the dance program. This class is an entry into the creative trajectory that later leads to composition and dance making. Other improvisation classes are recommended for students who have already taken Beginning Improvisation and want to explore this form further.
Experimental Improvisation Ensemble
This class explores a variety of musical and dance styles and techniques, including free improvisation, chance-based methods, conducting, and scoring. We will collaborately innovate practices and build scores that extend our understanding of how the mediums of dance and music relate to and with one another. How the body makes sound and how sound moves will serve as entry points for our individual and group experimentation. Scores will be explored with an eye toward their performing potential. The ensemble is open to composer-performers, dancers, performance artists, and actors. Music students must be able to demonstrate proficiency in their chosen instrument. All instruments (acoustic and electric), voice, electronic synthesizers, and laptop computers are welcome.
Contact Improvisation
This course will examine the underlying principles of an improvisatory form predicated on two or more bodies coming into physical contact. Contact Improvisation, which emerged in the 1960s out of the Judson Experimental Dance Theatre, combines aspects of social and theatrical dance, bodywork, gymnastics, and martial arts. We will exploremovement practices that enhance our sensory awareness, with an emphasis on action and physical risk taking. Contemporary partnering skills, such as taking and giving weight and finding a common "center," will provide a basis for further exploration.
Movement is the birthright of every human being. These components explore movement's expressive and communicative possibilities by introducing different strategies for making dances. Problem posed run the gamut from conceptually driven dance/theatre to structured movement improvisations. These approaches vary depending on the faculty. Learn to mold kinetic vocabularies of your own choice and incorporate sound, objects, visual elements, and text to contextualize and identify your vision. Students will be asked to create and perform studies, direct one another, and share and discuss ideas and solutions with peers. Students are not required to make finished products but toinvolve themselves in the joy of creative.
Dance Making
Individual choreographic projects will be designed and directed by seniors and graduate students with special interest and experience in dance composition. Students and faculty will meet weekly to view works-in-progress and to discuss relevant artistic and practical problems. Whenever possible, the music for these projects, whether new or extant, will be performed live in concert. Dance Making students are encouraged to enroll in Lighting Design and Stagecraft for Dance.
Senior Seminar
This class is designed to support the creative and technical practices, as well as the practical concerns, of students in their senior year. It will also serve as a forum for discussions of art practices in other media and the nature of the creative process. Choreographic projects will be presented and discussed in seminar and in conference.
Anatomy in Action
How is it possible for humans to move in the multitude of ways that we do? Learn to develop your X-ray vision of the human being in motion in a course that combines movement practice, drawing, lecture and problem solving. In this course, movement is the vehicle for exploration of our profoundly adaptable anatomy. In addition to making drawings as we study the entire musculoskeletal system, we will learn Irene Dowd's Spirals™; a comprehensive warm-up/cool-down for dancing that coordinates all joints and muscles through their fullest range of motion. Insights gained in this course can provide tremendous inspiration in the creative process.Students may enter this yearlong course in the second semester only with the permission of the instructor.
Anatomy Seminar - Graduate
Graduate Seminar—Year
This is an opportunity for advanced students who have completed Anatomy I to pursue their study of anatomy in greater depth. Each student will research a topic or topics in which functional anatomy plays a significant part. We will meet weekly to discuss questions and share experiences.
This yoga class is tailored to investigative and supportive physicality and mental focus for art-making and creativepursuits. In addition to asanas and anatomical analysis, myths and principles from this ancient tradition are woven into this practice. Appropriate for dancers, theater students and anyone interested in experiencing a contemplative practice to support their health and endeavors.
Feldenkrais: Awareness Through Movement®
Moshe Feldenkrais believed that "rigidity, mental or physical, is contrary to the laws of life." His system of somatic education develops awareness, flexibility, and coordination as students are verbally guided through precisely structured movement explorations. The lessons are done lying on the floor, sitting, or standing and gradually increase in range and complexity. Students are required to bring their full attention to their experience in order to develop their capacity for spontaneous, effortless action. Self-generated learning will release habitual patterns, offer new options, and enhance the integrated activity of the entire nervous system.
African Diasporic Dance
This yearlong course will use physical embodiment as a mode of learning about and understanding African diasporic cultures. In addition to physical practice, master classes led by artists and teachers regarded as masters in the field of African diasporic dance and music, along with supplementary study materials, will be used to explore the breadth, diversity, history, and technique of dances derivative of the Africa diaspora. Afro Haitian, West African, Orisha Dances (Lucumi, Afro Cuban), and Social Dance are some genres that will be explored. Participation in year-end showings will provide students with the opportunity to apply studies in a performative context.
Dance and Camera, Body, Image and Metastable State
The class begins with the question, "The body is real, but how do images of the body function and what are the limits of reality?" We place our bodies in (the context of) this question. For this purpose, the class introduces the Live Processing technique, in which students relate to several prepared videos as external agency. Students develop a connection to the bodies in video sequences as if they are extensions of their own bodies.For each class, we set up video monitors around the space, run cables together, and dance in the environment. The students discuss, prepare their own video sequences, study details of the movements in the videos, and eventually combine it with their own movement. Live Processing puts bodies in process and offers an autonomous approach for each student to create unique movement every time. We move beyond our familiar territory by situating our bodies in metastable states. Or perhaps our bodies become the metastable states. We will find out.
This course will cover elementary and intermediate levels of Laban's system of movement notation. Students will concentrate on correct observation and analysis of movement, writing facility, and the ability to read and perform authentic, historical dance forms. Reconstruction and performance of a notated work from the modern dance or ballet repertoire will be the culmination of the students' work.
Laban Motif
Motif Notation is a method of recording observed movement. It is a system that has been developed closely with Labanotation (the method of notating movement by Rodolf von Laban). Motif Notation is very useful on multiple levels: it uses symbols that express the larger framework and idea behind a series of movements and gives a very strong sense of the intention of the mover and choreographer. Motif Notation includes Basic Body Actions, Shape Qualities, Effort and Effort Phrasing, Planes, Dimensions, Space motifs and Keys in space. Through Motif Notation students can understand dynamics, timing, and action. It also allows the student dancer to express the intention of his/her movement in space and spatial relationships with others. Motif Notation can be applied in any field of study, from dance, to sports, to training, teaching, to therapy to group dynamics and conflict resolution.
Rumba Tap
This class offers students different ways to access their inner rhythm machine and to explore the most immediate and natural physical outlets for the music in their mind. Improvisation will be part of this process. Although some tap technique will be covered and incorporated, the class focuses on body percussion/rhythmic coordination and a general understanding of the earth-shattering power of Afro-Cuban culture, music, and dance.
Dance History
This is a course in the history of performance in the United States from the early 20th century to the present, as exemplified by the dancers, choreographers, and teachers who brought about notable changes in the art. The relationship of dance to the larger cultural environment will be discussed, with emphasis placed on the dance of our time. The spring term will also include studio practice. This course is designed to help the student relate his or her own work to the development of the art and to encourage creative critical perception.
Teaching Conference
This course is an inquiry into the ways in which dance might be taught in various settings to different populations. The detailed study of kinesthetic, verbal, and creative actors in teaching will be presented and analyzed in terms of teaching objectives. Students will be placed as practice teachers, under supervision, in dance classes on campus and in community schools.
Lighting Design and Stagecraft for Dance
The art of illuminating dance is the subject of this component. We will examine the theoretical and practical aspects of designing lights for dance. Students will create original lighting designs for Dance program concerts.
Music for Dancers
The objective of this course is to grant dance students with the tools needed to fully understand the relationship between music and dance. Students will expand their knowledge of diverse musical elements, terminology, execution and procedures, and learn the basics of rhythmic notation.This course will provide students with the opportunity to play a full array of percussion instruments from around the globe: African djembes, Brazilian zurdos, Argentinean bombo, Indian tabla, electronic drums, etc. Students will also learn how to scan musical scores with various degrees of complexity and explore the diverse rhythmic styles that have developed through time in response to different geographical, social, and philosophical conditions. The focus will be prevalent towards a dancer's full knowledge and understanding of music. All musical instruments will be provided.
Dance Meeting
This is a regular gathering of all Dance Thirds in which we share ongoing student interests and invite guests to teach, perform, and inform. Topics have included dance injuries, dance therapy, kinesthetic awareness, nutrition, world dance forms, and presentations by New York City choreographers.
Contemporary 3
Emphasis will be on the continued development of basic skills, energy use, strength, and control relevant to the particular style of each teacher. Attention will be given to sharpening each student's awareness of time and energy and to disciplining the body to move rhythmically, precisely, and in accordance with sound anatomical principles. The students in this advance class will study complex movement patterns, investigate somatic use, and concentrate on the demands of performance.
Performance Project
Elizabeth McPherson will restage excerpts from Anna Sokolow's most famous pieces, "Rooms" (1955). Ms. Sokolow's work was often inspired by her ethnic background and strong social and political convictions. In Rooms, Ms. Sokolow used chairs to symbolize rooms in a cheap hotel, and the way dancers move on and around those chairs reveals the anxieties and obsessions of the hotel's residents. The work was used in a short film, also titled Rooms (1966). Students will showcase their work with an end of semester performance.
Performance Project
We bring Live Processing to a performance environment from the classroom. (Please refer to the class description about Live Processing under Dance and Camera.) Performers dance in a video-surrounded environment and learn to use multiple video sources at once, to create movement that is similar yet different each time they practice it. The score is made for a body to become an open series of metastable states through which a subject passes. We put thebody in process to disrupt its usual flow of image, subjectification, and attributions. Students will showcase their work with an end of semester performance.
Graduate Seminar I
Graduate Seminar—Fall
Writing about dance performance will be the topic for Fall 2014. This will involve reading past and present criticism as well as writing about current performances in New York City. This seminar provides an opportunity for students to develop their research, writing and analytical skills while studying a variety of topics that are of interest to them. Recent subjects have included investigations of the creative process, dance criticism, world dance forms, and the collaborative process. Each project culminates in an oral presentation.
Graduate Seminar I
Graduate Seminar—Spring
Perspectives: A Graduate Seminar on Sreendance: In the Spring semester, we will survey a selection of works in film and video that capture dance as a moving image. Many of the filmmakers whose work will be considered are themselves dance makers or closely aligned and collaborators with dance makers, including Busby Berkeley, Maya Deren, Bob Fosse, Yvonne Rainer, Meredith Monk, Charles Atlas, Cathy Weis, Ralph Lemon, Sally Potter, and Wim Wenders, among others. Focusing primarily on film and video works from mid- to late 20th and early 21st century, this course seeks to develop understanding of how over this time period, coinciding with the emergence and availability of film and video technology and equipment, an artistic form referred to as screendance and/or dancefilm emerged. How screendance has both reflected and influenced developments in dance making practices will be of particular interest. Also of interest will be how iconic works of this form and the artists featured in them have impacted our culture and society. Selected readings for the course will explore the history, theory, and practice of this rapidly expanding field of interest. Students will keep a journal of the works viewed in class; write a research paper and give an oral presentation on a topic of their choice in consultation with the faculty; and attend screenings and discussions of the annual Dance on Film Festival at Lincoln Center.
Graduate Seminar II
This seminar is a laboratory for developing and refining projects from the "Dance Making" class. It is designed to encourage students to work collaboratively in solving questions of physical, spatial and temporal issues in their work, to explore connections between dance and other forms , and to make them aware of and conversant with the creative process always at work in the world.
Graduate Seminar III
Graduate Seminar
This seminar emphasizes a dynamic foundation for dancing, offering participants an opportunity to refine their technique and analytical skills. Relevant aspects of functional anatomy are presented and considered throughout this class. Students are encouraged and coached to increase awareness of their current strategies, to broaden their range of movement possibilities, and integrate their creative and technical practices.

I am expecting an increase in the DIVIDEND.
I am insisting on it or I will leave, (after several decades of ownership), because I need the money to live on. To Hell with all those buybacks. We want, need and deserve those dividends.
Sentiment: Hold
Look at the Giant Div that Apple paid out. This buyback #$%$ needs to take a breather,and give shareholders a Giant boost,even in form of a special div,along with a 50% hike to present payout.
divies and buybacks are the same, both are return of capital to the owners (stockholders)
divies (and buybacks) reduce the overall total value of the company as they result in less capital under the control of the company. Just like if you take money out of the bank and give it to your kids, it ultimately only reduces their inheritance.
Why is it YOUR needs that should be accomodated. I want the dividend cut and buybacks increased. That allows XOM to give me cash when I want (and when I want to be taxed) or I can let my % ownership increase and capture that value later (again, when I want.) If YOU want cash now, sell a few of your shares. Keep the rate at X% of your shares per year and your invesment value over time will remain the same and you get your cash. Meanwhile, i don't have to pay taxes on divies I dont' want.
divies do not inherently raise the stock price. A stable, ongoing dividend is a 'continuous' return of capital to ownership. It is the stability of this cash stream AND the fact the the companies return on capital is high is what drives long term value. Have you ever noticed that every time a dividend is given, the share price drops accordingly the next open? I am not saying divies are bad. But they are only the company giving you back your own money (and getting taxed for it.)
I think you'll get an additional 2 cents a quarter. The rest of the money that should belong to ALL the shareholders will be dedicated to that ridiculous buy-back so management can achieve its EPS goal without actually growing the company. All that $ wasted and still XOM cannot achieve an all-time high.
I'd be happy with a 20% increase.
From what I read in the business sites and the newspapers, XOM is due for a hefty dividend increase.This move could increase this stocks value many fold and end the current sluggishness.The management can do both- play with the buyback and still raise the dividend adequately.
Very good point! I believe the hindrance to XOM's advancing stock price is demand. Why buy XOM with a 2.6% dividend yield, when you could buy TOT @ 5.5%, BP @ 5.4%, RDS @ 5.3%, or COP @ 4.5%. You would be carrying the same general risks as if you owned XOM.
With the numbers of baby-boomers heading toward retirement I have to believe those who are financially sophisticated must be looking for long term cash flow from dividends. XOM needs to position itself to offer a product that is competitive with its rivals. The quicker they do it the better off they will be.
Last year's 20% dividend increase was an acknowledgment that they needed to address the situation. If XOM sees it the way we see, 20% increases will continue until the dividend yield nears the industries' average. However, knowing XOM, 20% per year will be the maximum.
This prediction is for entertainment purposes only.
Sounds good to me.....
The BuyBacks are shybacks. Another Bull Sheet trend is the stock always goes down following record breaking earnings. Double the dividend and we go neck and neck with CVX,above 120 per share,then we can have another split.
go away stinkbomb and stick ur head in the oven.
The dividend should be a dyslexic version of the current amount...$0.75 instead of $0.57.
RexT needs to stop trying to artificially prop up ineffective mgmt. with ineffective buybacks and pay share holders!

The Greenwood Christian Academy baseball team and its followers must have felt like they were hit by a ton of bricks Saturday afternoon at the Class A Morristown Regional.
Shakamak, ranked third in Class A, needed just five innings to eliminate the Cougars 10-0 (via the run rule) and advance to the regional final, where it defeated Jac-Cen-Del, 10-2.
Greenwood Christian coach Doug Hagist was disappointed for his players, but certainly not in them.
Instead of dwelling on being hit with a load of bricks, Hagist was far more encouraged by a huge building block his ball club put into place in just its third year of existence.
The Cougars defeated University 14-7 in extra innings to capture the Bethesda Christian Sectional championship in their previous outing, easily the biggest win in the brief history of the program.
"We played in the regional, so I can't be too unhappy," said Hagist, managing a smile. "We're still learning baseball. We now have three or four quality seniors to replace, but other than that, we're in good shape.
"Getting past University was a big step for us."
Shakamak scored four runs in the second inning, taking advantage of three walks, an error and a wild pitch.
Designated hitter Austin Rush drove in the Lakers' first run with a sacrifice fly and second baseman Dylan Collins brought in another run with a single.
The Cougars turned a nifty double play to thwart another Shakamak scoring threat in the third inning, but the Lakers broke it wide open in the bottom of the fourth with six runs.
Shortstop Brett Yeryar drove in a run with a sacrifice fly, first baseman Christian Burris singled in a pair of runs, and pitcher Braden Scott helped his own cause with a two-run double to highlight the frame.
Greenwood Christian tried to stay alive with one out in the top of the fifth when left fielder Jacob Stephenson had a base hit, and shortstop turned relief pitcher Braden Murray drew a walk from Shakamak's Scott.
But the Lakers' left-hander rallied, striking out the next two batters swinging to end both the ballgame and the Cougars' breakout season at 16-14.
Scott struck out seven batters and allowed just three hits to improve to 8-0. The Lakers totaled eight hits and committed no errors.
All in all, Shakamak played like a highly rated team, taking advantage of mistakes and avoiding miscues themselves.
Obviously, the Lakers are at a level the Cougars want to attain.
"We've got to become baseball-minded," Hagist said. "We took a group of good athletes and made them baseball players. We focused a lot on hitting this year and we're better at adjusting as hitters.
"This year we had eight or nine kids who could put the bat on the ball."

Respond to Review of CLOSED: Cafe Klatsch
by day-hee
Review: I enjoyed the soyburger at the recommendation of my server (who spoke English), though everything else on the menu sounded delicious as well. The menu changes on a weekly basis, however I wouldn't doubt that everything they serve is delicious! There was also a large selection of organic drinks and home-baked desserts on display. The atmosphere was cozy and a little bit retro (candle-lit, diner-style), and the service was both fast and friendly. The prices were great, too - the burger and side salad were only 6,50, and I think the most expensive dish (a pasta) was still under 9,00. I highly recommend this restaurant; it is well worth several minutes' walk outside of the city centre!

to perform server side validation in response to the submit button being clicked. Here are the business rules I want to enforce: Fields may not be empty or filled with spaces. If any field is empty, turn that field background color to yellow and add to/create an error message to be shown in the error label. The end date must be greater than the start date. If the end date is less than the start date, turn both date fields yellow and add to/create an error message to be shown in the error label. If all fields validate properly then the session state items should be set properly and the user should see the frmPersonnelVerified form with all the values displayed. You can use Andrew Lowe, Date of birth 07/01/1980 e-mail email@example.com
#2 Furthermore I need the c# code for the frmPersonnel page and add functionality to INSERT records into a database table and SELECT records for display to the user. We will create a typed dataset, a Data Layer class, several functions to access the data, and a connection to a database. We also will add a search form to allow the user to search records in the database and display the results of that search.
#3 Last I need the c# code to add transaction processing code to my website.
Attached I have two things the actual work that I have done so far which I labeled as "Lab 4" and also the instructions and some code that I have for each part #1, #2 and #3 which I labeled "Instructions for each part #1 #2 and #3" Which are both under a folder I named "Lab 4" Please help!!!"
