According to the Los Angeles Times' Image section of last Sunday, blue is the hue that's replacing red on the talons of fashionistas on the runways and in fashion mags.
The Times features a variety of blues from Chanel's Blue Satin, sold out and going for $50 a bottle on eBay, to brands a little more in our price range, like Wet n' Wild's Sapphire Blue at 99 cents. The article also covered lots of mid-range brands like Cover Girl's Electric Blue, OPI's Yoga-la Get This Blue!, Orly's Blue Collar, Sephora's Myrtille, and Essie's Aruba Blue, shown above.
These dark blues go great with the grays and blacks being featured this season, and are a bit less over-dramatic than black nails.

Starting Five Leads Men's Basketball Past Cleveland State, 74-57, For Flames' Fourth Straight Victory
Jan. 15, 2005
Jan. 15, 2005
Chicago, Ill. - The UIC men's basketball team's starting five accounted for all of the team's scoring on Saturday night with each player reaching double figures as the Flames posted their fourth straight victory with a 74-57 triumph over Cleveland State on Saturday at the UIC Pavilion.
With the win, UIC moves over .500 for the first time this season at 8-7, improving to 3-2 in Horizon League play. The Vikings, meanwhile, dropped to 4-9, 1-4 in league action.
Junior Elliott Poole totaled a career-best, double-double to lead the Flames, tallying 16 points and 12 rebounds. He was a perfect 8-of-8 from the foul line.
Senior Armond Williams led all scorers with 17 points while adding eight rebounds and four steals. Senior Cedrick Banks had a solid all-around night with 16 points, a career-high tying six assists, five rebounds and four steals. Sophomore Jovan Stefanov (14 points) and junior Rocky Collum (11 points) rounded out the scoring for UIC.
Senior Omari Westley paced Cleveland State with 15 points and nine rebounds.
The scored was tied at 29-29 at intermission, but a 15-2 run by the Flames to open the second half gave UIC a 44-31 lead it would not relinquish. Four different players scored during the Flames' surge with Williams leading the way with six points.
The Flames shot 60% overall in the second stanza, outscoring the Vikings, 45-28.
UIC will be back in action on Thursday, January 20th, when they host Detroit at 7:00 p.m.

NATO is meeting this week in Wales and on its agenda is the Ukrainian conflict. Russia last week invaded the Ukrainian territory and opened up another front against the Ukrainian government. Russia aligned with the separatists rebels, are fighting side by side and have made strides against Ukrainian troops. The Ukrainian government has opened up the possibility of joining NATO and is certainly looking for help against the Russians.
Now the European Union and the United States first thought of punishing Russia by implementing more sanctions. It seems now NATO is wanting to take the fight directly to the Russian Federation in a rapid response move. This would be a in and out all out offensive and would take the Russians by surprise. It's purpose would be to inflict the worse possible harm in a short period of time.
In other words the west has taken all it's going to take from Russian President Vladimir Putin. From the beginning Putin has lied through his teeth about everything that Russia has been involved in with the Ukrainian conflict. It was Putin who instigated this whole thing. Sanctions have taken their toll but it looks like finally NATO is going to get involved.
The Russians have been told to withdraw from Ukrainian territory and so far they have ignored the warning. Putin has been getting away with murder during the past six months it's about time we took the fight to them. Let's see just how far Putin is willing to go with his actions.
President Barack Obama will be attending the NATO conference this week. He is behind NATO and has given his backing to any decision coming from the meeting concerning Ukraine. So Mr Putin it looks like its time to put up or shut up and if you think we will not attack you then you surely have lost your mind. Mr Putin we are coming for you.

While the issue of statehood for Washington DC occasionally bubbles up, history was made on Monday when President Barack Obama on Monday became the first sitting President to endorse statehood for the district. But like the rest of the supporters of the statehood movement, he misses the point.
Obama argued during his appearance at the Walker Jones education campus that because "folks in D.C. pay taxes like everybody else, they contribute to the overall well being of the country like everybody else, they should be treated like everybody else." This sounds good in theory and is no doubt music to the District's ears. This is also not a new argument. After all, the phrase "Taxation without Representation" has appeared on residents' license plates since they were authorized by city leaders in 2000 and Obama has used them on presidential limousines since January of last year.
The problem with this argument is a certain piece of paper called the United States Constitution. The Constitution specifically grants Congress authority over the District's affairs under the Article I, section 8, Clause 17 provision. The writers' of the U.S. Constitution believed that the nation's capital needed to be unique in order to provide for its own maintenance and safety. James Madison argued in the Federalist Papers that situating the capital city within a state would subject the federal government to unfair influence by said state and therefore violate the principle of federalism. Under the Constitution, this is one power the federal government has over state governments. Giving the District of Columbia full representation and statehood would violate the principle of federalism and undermine the structure of our government.
Another obstacle to granting D.C. statehood is whether Maryland's approval would be needed. The Constitution requires that a new state formed from an existing state must receive permission from the legislature. Because Maryland donated land to form the national capital and is not a new state, some lawmakers believe that Maryland must also consent to the new state.
In order for DC to achieve statehood, the only solution available is to pass a Constitutional Amendment. The Amendment process requires a two-thirds vote in favor of an amendment in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. If successful, the Amendment would next go to the states where three-fourths (38 out of 50) of the state legislatures would be needed to vote in favor. Given the deep political divide in the this country and the already overwhelming opposition to DC Statehood, any hopes will die quickly.
The argument for statehood will not go away as long as the license plates are around and elected officials continue speaking out. But it is time to start looking at alternatives towards granting DC more representation in Congress because statehood simply is not going to happen.

Recap | Final Stats | Quotes
*UCLA's Terrence Austin recorded 76 all-purpose yards today to set a new school single-season record of 1,878. The previous record-holder was Maurice Jones Drew with 1,863 in 2005. Austin also moved past Kevin Jordan into 22nd on the career all-purpose yardage list with 2,607.
*Dominique Johnson's 21-yard touchdown pass to Kahlil Bell in the first quarter was the first touchdown toss by a UCLA receiver since Brandon Breazell threw a 29-yard TD pass to Johnson on Oct. 20, 2007 in a 30-21 win over California. It was also UCLA's longest offensive touchdown play of the season. Johnson has been involved in UCLA's last two touchdowns against USC; he also had a nine-yard touchdown reception in the 2007 contest.
*With 11 completions in the game, UCLA quarterback Kevin Craft finished the season with 232, moving past Troy Aikman (228 in 1988) into second place on UCLA's single-season list for pass completions.
*Kahlil Bell rushed for 39 yards, moving into 20th on UCLA's career rushing list with 1,741 career yards. He passes Mel Farr, Sr., who had 1,716 net yards from 1964-66.
*Today's attendance was 87,790, marking the 15th consecutive home game in which UCLA has drawn over 60,000 fans and the highest total since the 2006 USC game (90,622).
With today's win, USC earns its 33rd berth into the Rose Bowl and fourth in a row (unless it somehow moves into the BCS title game) ... USC also extends its NCAA record streaks of 11-wins seasons and BCS bowl berths to seven.
USC improves to 43-28-7 against UCLA and has won nine of the last 10 meetings ... Pete Carroll is now 7-1 against UCLA. Carroll improves to 86-15 (85.3%) in seven-plus years as head coach and remains the winningest active coach (by percentage) with at least five years as a Division 1A/FBS head coach ... USC has now won nine games in row.
USC QB Mark Sanchez has now thrown at least one TD in all 15 of his career starts and at least two TDs in 12 starts ... His two TDs today give him 30 for the season and 37 for his career. The 30 TDs in 2008 marks the fourth-most in a season by a USC QB. Matt Leinart threw for 38 TDs in 2003 and 33 TDs in 2004. Carson Palmer also threw for 33 TDs in 2002.
USC So. TB Joe McKnight's 1st-quarter 12-yard TD run was his second rushing TD of the season. USC So. WR Damian Williams' 1st-quarter 12-yard TD reception was his eighth this season and the third game in a row he's had one (he's had at least one TD in seven games this year).
USC Jr. TB Stafon Johnson's 2nd-quarter 2-yard TD run is his team-high ninth.
USC Sr. WR Patrick Turner's 3rd-quarter 18-yard TD reception is his team-best 10th receiving score.
USC's 28-point response to UCLA's opening TD marked the 10th time this season USC has scored at least 20 unanswered points. USC did it eight times in 2007, five times in 2006, 13 times in 2005, 12 times in 2004 and 11 times in 2003 and 2003.
USC finishes the regular season having allowed 93 points in 12 games (7.75 per game). After losing to Oregon State in game three, USC has allowed only 56 points in its last nine games (6.22 per game). USC has allowed only 22 points in the second half all season.
UCLA's 1st-quarter TD was just the fourth passing touchdown USC has allowed this year and only the 11th TD allowed all season.
For the seventh time this season, Troy's top-ranked defense held an opponent to less than 200 total yards. USC also held an opponent to less than 100 yards rushing for the ninth time this year.
USC finishes the regular season having given up no more than 179 passing yards in any game (that was to Oregon).

SYRACUSE, NY (Ivanhoe Newswire) -- Americans spend at least 50 billion dollars a year on low back pain alone. Lumbar spinal stenosis -- a common cause of lower back and leg pain -- is the most common reason for surgery in people age 60 and over. Now, doctors are studying an effective and relatively easy way to relieve people of the pain.
As a full-time nurse with five children, Cheryl Dote spends a lot of time on her feet. For the last four years, she's done that with debilitating back and leg pain.
"I would be in tears some nights," Cheryl Dote told Ivanhoe.
She tried physical therapy, pain relievers and pain injections, but the pain always won.
"I actually thought I was going to end up in a wheelchair," Cheryl said.
Like more than a million other Americans, she has lumbar spinal stenosis. In her search for help, she found Upstate Medical University doctor Richard Tallarico.
"In the most aggressive forms, patients can't stand to walk for even a few minutes, so it's very functionally disabling," Richard Tallarico, M.D., orthopedic spine surgeon at Upstate Medical University said.
Standing or walking compresses the spine and pinches the nerves, causing pain. Patients only get relief when they're sitting or stooped over. Now, doctor Tallarico and a team of doctors is studying the Superion Spacer to relieve the pain.
"Compared to what we've had in the past, this is a much easier way to approach this from both the surgeon and the patient perspective," Dr. Tallarico said.
First, surgeons make a half-inch incision in the back. The Spacer is inserted where it's needed and acts like a wedge, which permanently spreads open the spinal canal.
"It allows the spine to remain in a flexed position, mimicking the sitting position," Dr. Tallarico said.
Cheryl had the Spacer put in and says the relief she feels changed her life.
"It was 100 percent better," Cheryl said. "It's still 100 percent better."
Now, her focus is on her kids, instead of her pain. The Spacer is still under study, and the trial is open to patients across the country. If study results hold up, doctors hope this will get FDA approval and be available to the masses within three years. MORE

Technological advances have changed the legal profession in many ways, however, ethics codes have not kept pace, and this brings pressure not only to supervising attorneys, but presumably to the new paralegal as well, according to the American Bar Association's comments about ethics and family law.
Innovations in mobile technology, the Internet, social networking sites and an ever-growing selection of software and vendors are introduced on a daily basis. Lawyers and judges must stay current because lapses in physical security lead to data breaches. Smartphones, thumb drives, and other portable devices containing sensitive client data are easily lost or stolen. Computers that should be secure are accessed by unauthorized individuals.
There are many law practice management software applications that help attorneys efficiently manage information with regard to cases and clients. By using management software, various case information including contacts and calendaring may be shared between the attorneys and other law office staff. Some of the prominent features of law practice management software which can help a sole practitioner such as Attorney Ruth (as we will call this real attorney), include billing/tracking time, scheduling, contacts, invoicing, conflict checks and accounting. Any good salesperson can sell to Attorney Ruth but she should first understand the needs of the law firm before deciding what technologies are to be adopted.
Technology also has its own downside. Metadata, advertising, disposing of computers, website use, and email are certain areas that should be researched before buying software with which to protect oneself or one's law firm. As we have discussed, metadata is the information hidden in the background of electronic documents. It includes the name of the author, the date created and last edited, as well as the undo/redo history. The disclosure of the metadata could even lead to a breach of confidentiality. (Uslegalinc.com, October 2010)
Litigation support software assists attorneys and legal assistants in organizing, storing, retrieving, and summarizing information that is gathered in the litigation of a lawsuit. During the course of a lawsuit, large quantities of information are acquired. New software helps manage and control the information. (Using Computers in the Law Office, Brent Roper)
Failures in "cloud" computing and increased hacking can scare lawyers. Now, I'm a little frightened by new technology and I can see a day when the entire internet goes down for a lengthy period of time, so I would caution Attorney Ruth to not get rid of her hard copy/paper versions, and definitely keep her paper desk calendar and index card tickling system.
Most of the law firm software companies claim they can help lawyers avoid the following problems:
1. Missed deadlines
2. Time wasted searching for information
3. Redundant data entry
4. Lost revenue
5. Time wasted generating documents & forms
6. Inadequate reporting
7. Slow response to client inquiries
There are only two downsides to litigation software: taking time to learn the programs, and paying for them. Let's look at iBlaze and Abacus.
Lawyers can get a free trial use for Abacus, and afterwards obtain a cost estimate. Abacus claims it's "an all-in-one, easy to use solution designed specifically for law firms." If you spoke to their sales team, they would tell you, "With our fully integrated practice management software, you will be able to work more efficiently, lower risk and improve client service."
Experience showed me AbacusLaw is an organized system for entering contacts, matters, assigning staff, entering recurring events, linking names to matters and events, linking documents and running event and matter reports. Although painful at times, I came away from the tutorial with a positive feeling about how well this software could help a law office.
The sales literature for Abacus says their legal software pulls together all the features an attorney needs — legal calendaring software, contact management, case management, document handling, document production, conflict checks, phone messaging, time capture, law office billing and accounting — so you can do anything and retrieve anything from one location.
They also call the programs an integrated solution — double entry of data is eliminated and manual errors are significantly reduced, dramatically lowering your malpractice risks and giving you more time to spend on billable tasks.
The literature on Abacus claims lawyers be able to eliminate paper files and consolidate all of your office software like calendaring, case management, document management, document and form production, billing and accounting. But many attorneys have consistently said that a paper file backup is strongly encouraged if for no other reasons than ethics and malpractice.
CT Summation and iBlaze will also offer free trial demos and cost quotes to attorneys. Again, this tutorail was painful at times but my takeaway from iBlaze was that you can easily (with practice) create databases that include people, events, pleadings, core databases, transcripts, e-documents as well as earmarking testimony, creating outlines of things to do in cases and other services.
The American Bar Association (at abanet.org) is actually touting iBlaze, posting an ad to its website and pontificating how great it is: "CT Summation iBlaze gives you complete control over litigation evidence by bringing all you need--transcripts, documents, issues, and events, to your fingertips in one easy-to-use software program. Working in close collaboration with CT Summation, author and noted technology speaker Tom O'Connor has developed this easy-to-understand guide designed to quickly get you up and running on CT Summation software. Organized from the perspective of working with evidentiary documents, The Lawyer's Guide to CT Summation iBlaze, Second Edition explains the program's system of storing and recalling disparate types of evidence, and walks you through CT Summation's entire integrated litigation-support product line." Helpful screenshots throughout illustrate all the procedures being discussed, and "Practice Pointer" sidebars illustrate the processes where Summation can make the task of managing litigation more efficient for attorneys.
From On the Reliability of Cloud Computing, by John Bair, 4/27/2011. "Last week's outage in AWS (Amazon Web Services) EC2 service continues to make headlines. The high visibility outage impacted many companies that depend on Amazon for either primary or overflow computing and storage services. Impacting a large number of databases, applications and sites across the web, the outage shows just how pervasive use of cloud computing has become.
"At Ajilitee, we have been using AWS and other cloud services for nearly three years. In fact, we run our business infrastructure entirely in the cloud and manage a hosted application for clients on a cloud-based platform. Notwithstanding the recent problem, availability and reliability of services have been very good. So good that I can understand how some may have been lulled into a false sense of security. After all, Amazon's promise of 99.95% out-of-the-box uptime availability is indeed respectable.
So what went wrong and what are the implications of this failure? Will it create so much fear, uncertainty and doubt (the FUD factor) that it stalls the widespread adoption of cloud computing across industry, much the same way the Three Mile Island incident squelched the expansion of nuclear energy in the U.S.?" As for what went wrong, much has been written about the failure of Amazon's multiple Availability Zones in its eastern region, so I won't cover it again here.
For the details, I refer you to Lydia Leong, Gartner Research VP, and an early blogger on the outage.
"As for the impact of FUD on cloud adoption," Bair wrote, "I think there will be a few more rounds of hand-wringing on the risks of cloud, but in the end, a pragmatic perspective will prevail. After all, whether your applications are hosted in the cloud, delivered through your own data center, or managed by an outsourcer in a remote location, outages and downtime will occur. Such failures happen in all environments. That's why we have disaster recovery plans! For cloud-based applications, one must simply have a disaster plan that is architected for the cloud environment. Creating such a plan entails weighing the risks versus the rewards of various decisions."
Bair's analysis. Whitebox versus Blackbox. There are two approaches to exposing the implementation details of services. Blackbox services shield consumers from the implementation details; whitebox services provide transparency and visibility into one or more layers of implementation. Regardless of the approach, architects need to understand the potential points of failure and weigh the risks versus the costs of prevention.
For example, many data warehouse implementations are not architected and engineered for high availability because the businesses cannot justify the cost of maintaining full redundancy. The implication is that a major storage failure could impact data warehouse service levels for days or even weeks.
Will you apply different availability standards to a data warehouse hosted in the cloud as opposed to one run out of your data center? You may well, because your decision to use the cloud may include a goal of improved service levels to the business through better availability options. But do examine your thinking and what is really necessary for your recovery operations.
Two important aspects to consider in a data warehouse recovery scenario are:
1. How long can the sources or staging processes continue during a failure scenario without losing data?
2. Once operation is restored, how much spare capacity is required and how long will it take for the data warehouse systems to get caught up?
Interdependency. Service level and availability management are two key dimensions of data warehouse and business intelligence (BI) systems that often are not well understood or executed even in legacy data centers. One contributing factor is the often complex web of interdependencies between the data sources, BI systems, and data consumers.
The same principle holds for cloud services – the more abstracted or higher level a service, the more complex the implementation and the greater number of interdependencies that must be considered when engineering the implementation. Today's sophisticated managed analytics environments combine multiple servers and services including ETL, data quality, database, analytics tools, applications, and portal-based web services, all of which must be coordinated in a consistent configuration, and any one of which, if misconfigured, can impact the quality of service.
Capacity Guarantees. When a single server fails and the cloud service has spare capacity, it is usually a simple process to instantiate a replacement server from backups. However, when many instances fail concurrently (or when the monitoring and control system thinks they have failed, even if they haven't), simultaneous failover of hundreds or thousands of services can overload an infrastructure. As of the time of writing, Amazon has not yet identified a root cause for the outage, but from early reports, this is likely to be a key exacerbating factor. I should point out that this spare capacity problem exists in other virtualized environments, and even legacy server architectures.
In conclusion, computer programs are being used for everything from word processing, timekeeping and billing, to legal research and website management. According to experts, this applies to all types and sizes of law firms. I would recommend that firms take the leap and obtain litigation or case management software, now, in order to keep up with emerging trends that now include cloud computing which is an Internet-based computing system, where shared resources, software, and information are provided to computers and other devices on demand. I mention cloud computing because this natural evolution of the adoption of virtualization in a law office may force solo practitioners such as Attorney Ruth to buy software just "to keep up with the Joneses."

My first post so please be gentle
I currently run an all Cyrus system ;CDXT, DAC XP and Mono Xs, going into B&W 805s speakers, using Chord interconnects (Sig digital & Chorus RCA), speaker cable (Oddy 2 install).
I am enjoying my system but wonder if the Chord kit is just a bit too 'edgy' for my hardware and was considering a move to Stereovox or Atlas. All copper cables I beleive? I would also like to take advantage, if there is any, of the balanced configuration.
Anyone anyviews on what interconnects may be best suited to my set up?
Thanks in advance.

Washington University, located in St. Louis, received a system from Mechdyne, called CAVE, which "is used to review Mars data being sent back to earth from one of the two Mars Rovers, and to analyze data from the Phoenix satellite which is exploring Mars' North Pole" (Mechdyne). Students use this form of virtual reality for research and education.
Virtual reality has always been an intriguing way to play a video game, and with each advance in technology, VR gets better and better. Now that the eighth generation console has been on the market, another VR product will try and keep the unique gameplay popular.
Sony has gained another step over Microsoft after their unveiling of Project Morpheus—a VR headset—at the Game Developers Conference, located in San Francisco, on March 18. The company confirmed this upcoming piece of hardware for the PS4 only, at this time—the headset might be used with other video game hardware, such as the Vita, or other Sony products (Morris).
President of SCE Worldwide Studios, Shuhei Yoshida, spoke at the conference, saying Sony has been using VR headset prototypes for the past three years, though now has a marketable one. "Virtual reality is the next innovation from SCE that we believe will shape the future of games. I have long dreamed about VR and the possibilities it brings in regards to game development. This new technology will deliver a sense of presence, where you as the player actually feel like you're inside the game and your emotions feel that much more real," said Yoshida. "At SCE we view innovation as an opportunity to build on our mission to push the boundaries of play. Project Morpheus is the latest example of innovation from SCE, and we're looking forward to its continued development and the games that will be created as development kits get into the hands of content creators" (Morris).
Sony has been working with game developers with Project Morpheus, due to the playable demos, using the headset, on the show floor at GDC later in the week. Sony said, "The headset features built-in accelerometers and gyroscopes and works in conjunction with the PlayStation Camera to keep the image steady and track user head movements. The unit shows images in 1080p resolution, offers a 90 degree field of view, and boasts a new 3D audio technology that extends the VR effects beyond the visual world." "The prototype includes a breakout box between the headset and the console which can split the signal onto another display, such as a TV, letting others see what you're seeing and opening up the door for multiplayer gaming" (Morris).
No release date or price was announced; the development partners say the timeline has changed several times in the past year. Anton Mikhailov, Sony senior software engineer, said Project Morpheus will come out ASAP for as cheap as possible (Morris).

text: 1886 Patent Motorwagen When Karl Benz was awarded a patent for his "vehicle with gas engine operation" in 1886, it was unlikely that he realized thut his invention would change the world. German Patent #DRP 37435 is regarded as the birth certificate of the automobile. With its 954cc engine producing u modest .75 horsepower, the Patent Motorwagen was proven to be both capable of long voyages and captivating to the public when Karl's wife Bertha drove the Patent Motorwagen 112 miles on a trip to visit her mother in 1888. 1931 Mercedes 370S Mannheim The 370S Mannheim was one of the first Mercedes-Benz automobiles built following the merger of Daimler and Benz in 1928. It is a Benz design engineered by Ferdinand Porsche and one of only three Mercedes-Benz models to feature a flat radiator as opposed to Mercedes' V-shaped radiator that remains the standard today. This Mannheim is one of only 183 built and an estimated twelve that remain today. 1950 Mercedes 170S Amid the destruction left by Allied bombs in the wake of WWII, it seemed that there was nothing left of the Daimler-Benz headquarters or factories, Yet, miraculously, the tooling for the humble 170 model which was first introduced in 1936 had survived, and so a new factory was built and production of the prewar car began again in 1946. The 170S is often credited with being the model that saved Mercedes-Benz after the war, as there otherwise would have been nothing left to build on. car 1954 Mercedes 300SL With its impressive list of racing victories, pioneering use of fuel injection, and unique tube frame design prompting the use of the famous Gullwing doors, the Mercedes 300SL is one of the most famous and instantly recognizable cars in the history of the automobile. Initially designed strictly as a race car and not a roadgoing model, the 300SL's high-strung nature and price tag of $6,800 ensured that it remained a rare sight on the roads even when new: just 1400 were built 1960 Mercedes 220SE Cabriolet The most exclusive of Mercedes' "Ponton" model range of the 1950s was the 220SE Cabriolet Setting it apart from the lesser four-door and diesel models was its unique coachwork and its 134 horsepower fuel-injected engine. The fuel injected engine produced 18% more power and used 8% less fuel than the carbureted version; however this technology was not inexpensive and only 1,112 examples of this car were built before it was replaced by the "Heckflosse" model in 1961. 1972 Mercedes 600 The 600's sole design criterion was to be the world's ultimate luxury car, without regard to cost or compromise. The 600 was also a technical marvel, with its fully pneumatic suspension, hydraulic accessory drives, and Mercedes' first-ever V8 engine producing 250 horsepower. At a cost of $29,000 in 1972, the 600 quickly became popular with celebrities and world leaders; owners include Hugh Hefner, Leonid Brezhnev, Elizabeth Taylor, Kim Jung II, Elvis Presley, and Idi Amin.

Unarguable, La Sagrada Familia Catheral is the most attractive, fascinating, and the most visited landmark in Barcelona, Spain. La Sagrada Familia was designed by deceased famous architect Antoni Gaudi back in 1883.
According to Wikipedia's "Sagrada Familia's construction progressed slowly as it relied on private donations and was interrupted by the Spanish Civil War—only to resume intermittent progress in the 1950's. Construction passed the mid-point in 2010 with some of the project's greatest challenges remaining and an anticipated completion date of 2026—the centennial of Gaudí's death. The basílica has a long history of dividing the citizens of Barcelona—over the initial possibility it might compete with Barcelona's cathedral, over Gaudí's design itself, over the possibility that work after Gaudí's death disregarded his design, and the recent possibility that an underground tunnel of Spain's high-speed train could disturb its stability. Describing Sagrada Familia, art critic Rainer Zerbst said "it is probably impossible to find a church building anything like it in the entire history of art" and Paul Goldberger called it 'the most extraordinary personal interpretation of Gothic architecture since the Middle Ages'."
Incredible amounts of time money, hard work, and creativity have been invested in La Sagrada Familia's construction. A thorough visit of this famous cathedral, whether one is catholic or not, it is definitely considered a must when touring Barcelona. Admission fees range approximately from 13 to 20 euros, according to the type of service desired. Click here for hours and any additional tourist information.
There is indeed a lot to be seen, visited, experimented, and discovered in the cosmopolitan city of Barcelona. For instance, taking a walk at Las Ramblas –Barcelona's most famous street, and exploring Barri Gothic and El Born neighborhoods –where one can find narrow streets, cozy local bars, and the highly celebrated museum of Picasso at El Born. Food-wise, seafood is a must-have! There are multiple seafood restaurants available along the pier at multiple levels of affordability as well.
One would definitely want to dedicate at least three or four days to Barcelona when traveling in Spain in order to get the true taste, colors, and culture of this wonderful city!

Jason Breyo, Assistant Coach at Lambert High School in Georgia, introduces the youth players to the concept of transition defense, otherwise known as stopping the fast break opportunity. The goal here is to slow the fast break to allow the other defensive players to get back and help.
How it Works: In this segment, he stresses to the defensive player to play the man with the ball.
Drill Tips: Do not commit too early or over commit so that the offense can recover and play the pass to the other player and be in a position to play that man.

Rob Rose of True Athlete Performance shares the tools you need to better evaluate your players' performance with tests that isolate specific abilities. This drill is a way to measure the agility and speed of players. It can be used especially with offensive players to develop their ability to move quickly and change direction in order to create space or dodge a defender.
How it Works: This drill utilizes four cones; two for the start, one five yards up and five yards over, and a fourth, five yards over and five yards back, so that you end with a triangle shape. The athlete begins at the two cones. The timing begins upon the athletes' first forward movement. They sprint to and around the middle cone, sprint to and around the far cone, from an inside-out direction. They sprint back around the top-middle cone and then finish by running back between the two starting line cones.
Drill Tips: For testing an athlete's time, only one set up would be needed. But for training purposes, you could run the drill with several setups at the same time so that your entire team could have multiple reps in a short amount of time.

In this exclusive behind-the-scenes look, we visit Stanford, California for a recent strength and conditioning session with the Stanford University women's lacrosse team. Watch as Stanford sports performance coordinator Lesley Moser leads the team through a variety of agility and conditioning drills designed to improve quickness, acceleration, and cutting – three key areas that can make a huge difference out on the lacrosse field.
Agility Workout – Part I
In the following exercises, players spread out along a designated line on the lacrosse field. You will also notice a number of cones set up in front of the players about five yards apart to designate boundaries in each drill.
Left Shuffle – Shuffle out for five yards and then shuffle back. Stay low at all times and don't bounce on the shuffle. Your toes should always be facing forward (as well as your knees and shoulders).
Right Shuffle – This exercise is basically the same as before, but this time players will shuffle on the right side for five yards and then come back. Be sure to get a good slide. Also, make sure your feet stay apart and don't come together.
Crossover Skip – This time go out 10 yards and then come back. As for the crossover skip motion, players will want to crossover with one leg before immediately going back up with the second leg.
Carioca – Head out 15 yards and then come back. Be sure to let the knee drive the hips with this motion.
Agility Workout – Part II
Next up in the circuit will be a series of side shuffles using mini hurdles. These are truly some effective exercises that really challenge athletes from start to finish.
Left to Right Hurdle Side Shuffle – Using the mini hurdles, players will move quickly back and forth while pausing on each end of the hurdles. Knees and toes should be up in front of you at all times. As you get to the outside, pause and hold. Hold there until your coach gives you the okay to continue. Go three times each way and then switch.
Drill Tips: Stay low while driving the knees toward the chest. Look to maintain fast arms and fast feet throughout.
Left to Right Hurdle Side Shuffle – This time look to go down and back before pausing. Before you were pausing on each end of the hurdles. Now if you're starting on the right side of the hurdles, you'll end up pausing on the right side. Try to be as fast as you can off the outside.
The previous clips can be seen on Championship Productions' DVD "All Access Agility and Conditioning Workout for Lacrosse." To check out Coach Moser's original team agility workout from last summer, click here.
Follow along with Colgate lacrosse coach Mike Murphy as he reveals two of his team's favorite high-energy drills. During each segment, Coach Murphy provides insightful commentary as his players work through the drill at full speed. Meanwhile, expect a strong emphasis on fundamentals, quick decision making, and replicating game conditions.
Zip and Skip (Attack and Midfielder Drill)
Overview: It's important that players are not afraid of throwing the ball away. Coaches will frequently catch players trying to aim passes and that's just not good. Instead, focus on throwing the ball hard and getting the ball in and out of the stick as fast as possible. As an offensive unit, we want to be zipping the ball around the outside to keep one step ahead of any defense. Look to implement this drill to get the ball moving faster among offensive players.
Drill Set-up: Establish four lines that are well spread out. Have two lines start on the GLE but on opposite wings. The two others should be about 20 yards away and also on opposite sides of the field. Using two lacrosse balls at a time, make passes going around the horn from line to line. Look to go quicker and be sure to talk to each other throughout.
Points of Emphasis: The "Zip and Skip Drill" simulates moving the ball quickly on offense. The idea is that it's a passing and shooting drill. For instance, we want to get our feet set while moving into the ball and get it moving in and out of our stick as fast as possible.
Remember, the faster you can move the ball on offense, the longer it takes for the defense to recover. This puts you into a terrific position to get goals, especially on the backside of the cage.
Apache Ground Ball Drill
Overview: The "Apache Drill" focuses on ground ball players working off two defenders. In this common scenario, how exactly do we recover back in offensively and defensively? This drill is also terrific in teaching your players to play with confidence in unsettled situations.
Drill Set-up: Get six defensive guys running in a circle and then six offensive guys opposite of them. One coach will roll out a ground ball somewhere on the field and then proceed to call out a player's name. That player will immediately battle for the loose ball.
Meanwhile, send two defenders to the ball against that offensive guy. Offensively, make sure you're getting to your proper spots on the field. Also, the player with the ball should have his proper support to make a pass. Le t the drill play out from here, either resulting in a shot, clear, or turnover.
Drill Tips: When you scoop up the ball offensively, look to attack off two passes. If the defense scoops it up, work on clearing the ball up field.
The previous drills can be seen on Championship Productions' DVD "High Tempo, High Energy Practice Drills" with Mike Murphy. Click here to check out a selection of our best-selling lacrosse videos featuring effective team practice drills.
In this month's player development feature, pick up a variety of essential save techniques that will go a long way towards boosting the back end of your defense. With Syracuse coach Kevin Donahue as your guide, learn about goaltender tips and tricks that you can start implementing immediately with your own netminders.
Tips & Tricks: Goalie Save Techniques
Soft Top Hands – For effective goaltending, the overall emphasis should be placed on the top hand and having soft top hands. Don't grab the stick with a death grip. This could come back to haunt goalies on rebounds. Therefore, your hands must be out and away from the body.
Hands Together – Another key is to use the bottom hand together WITH the top hand (versus having a dominant bottom hand). For example, if you go for saves using a dominant bottom hand, you may have a slower save reaction time or place too much emphasis in one area. Your hands also must be comfortable and relaxed.
Follow with the Feet – As for your feet, the key here is to make sure they are following the hands. Coach Donahue always tells his players that the hands move first but the feet follow. It's essential that you follow with the feet.
Lateral Movement – In the past, coaches used to teach attacking the ball. However, this tactic stopped about 10 years ago. Quite simply, shooters are more accurate and faster, and we realized that most goalies weren't getting to the corner pipe as much. This is why most feet movements now are lateral (or sideways).
Trail Leg Tips – In the video below, you will notice how the goalie brings his trail leg in right away. Young goalies might leave their trail leg behind. However, this opens up the five-hole and can make them off balance, especially on low shots. By bringing that trail leg, you create a "leg, stick, leg" wall.
Tips for Making Saves Down Low
When it comes to making saves down low, one of the biggest things that goaltenders do wrong is trying to catch the ball. This is not a habit you want your goalies to get accustomed to as a lot of bad things can happen.
For instance, the bottom hand often moves back behind the player and forces the shoulders to turn. Since the goalie is now sideways, it's really easy for the ball to go in the goal in this position. Plus, if you try to "catch" the ball high, the stick gets particularly small. The biggest surface area is when the hands are out front and the shoulders are back.
On low saves, make sure the feet follow and be in the biggest possible position. It's also important to get a proper angle with the stick on low shots so that the ball hits the stick and comes right back down. A bad angle could lead to shots rolling up on you and ultimately into the cage.

According to BCNN1 Thursday, rapper Pastor Mason Betha's wife, Twyla Betha is not banned from the church after having a DUI arrest according to a public notice from the church. There are stories circulating in the media that Twyla is banned from the pulpit. Mase, is a hip hop rapper, and has churches in Atlanta and Phoenix. Twyla Betha is co-pastor at the El Elyon International church founded by Mason.
This message is posted the El Elyon International Church Facebook page:
The story that media outlets have released concerning the Betha family and the church are not accurate. MA$E nor the members of the church had any idea of any occurrence of an arrest or these charges taking place before today.
Our hearts go out to the entire Betha family and church members. Twyla is not banned from our church and the doors of our church have and always will be open to those who desire to seek a closer relationship with God through Jesus Christ.
The 38-year-old rapper-turned-preacher, filed for divorce in January of this year, but pulled back the request within 24 hours of filing. The couple has been married 12 years and have two children. Mase has gone back and forth to the hip hop world, and one of his most recent songs, "Nothing," has drawn criticism.
So then why is Twyla drinking? Life can certainly be stressful at times for preachers and their wives. Mase and his wife support strong marriages. They often speak about marriage and encourage being with other strong married couples. But drinking while driving is not healthy for anyone.
Let's hope this couple gets the help they need so they can be good parents to their children.

Think: Caramelly, crystalline cheeses have the strength to stand up to bolder booze. With sweet bourbon, these cheeses become almost like dessert.
Think: Caramelly, crystalline cheeses have the strength to stand up to bolder booze. With sweet bourbon, these cheeses become almost like dessert.
Full-bodied with no shortage of flavor. This grape is grown in almost every climate, which means lots of diversity across bottles.
Old World Cabernet: Earthy with aromas of leather, hay, and dark dried fruits. Sometimes a hint of eucalyptus or violet.
Pair with: Cheese with flavor that can stand up to this big wine. Alpine style cheeses like Comte or Appenzeller and some sweeter blues like Bleu d'Auvergne would make a good match.
New World Cabernet: Characterized by bold oaky flavors and high levels of tannins. These wines are about as full-bodied as you can get, very jammy with flavors of reduced fruit.
Pair with: Sweet clothbound cheddar or a Grana style cheese like Parmigiano Reggiano or Podda Classico.
This food-friendly wine ranges from super sweet to quite dry. Acidity, minerality, and aromas of tropical fruit are almost always present.
Dry: Characterized by bracing acidity and stark minerality. Tropical fruit on the nose, stunningly balanced flavor overall.
Pair with: This versatile wine works equally well with a fresh chevre (bringing out acidity) as it does a stinky Alsatian Munster (playing up the sweet/salty contrast).
Sweet: The other end of the spectrum offers a cloyingly sweet, syrupy wine. Aromas of ripe peaches and tropical fruit dominate, along with floral, perfumed accents.
Pair with: With something this strong it's best to contrast the sweetness with something funky or salty: A pungent washed rind like Grayson or a punchy blue like Bleu du Bocage.

Security Council hears concerns of Ivorian refugees in LiberiaListen /
• The Security Council has wrapped up its mission to West Africa. Earlier in the week the delegation visited a camp for Ivorian refugees who fled to Liberia following the disputed 2010 presidential runoff election in their country. More than 7,000 refugees live at the camp near the border with Côte d'Ivoire.
ILO reports rise in youth unemployment
• The number of unemployed young people worldwide will reach nearly 75 million this year, according to the latest report of the International Labour Organization (ILO).This figure is four million higher than in 2007, and ILO projects the numbers will not decrease until 2016. Africa is not immune to the problem of youth unemployment.
Carbon stored in soil is measured in Tanzania
• The cutting down of trees, or deforestation, releases carbon from the soil which, in turn, increases the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. These gases are blamed for global warming which contributes to climate change. In Tanzania, a national forestry assessment project known as NAFORMA has been launched with the assistance of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).

Sundy Carter is speaking out now about the brawl between herself and Draya on "Basketball Wives LA" episode 6. On March 31, Mstarz reported that Sundy is saying Draya did not deliver the eye-blackening blow that she is taking credit for.
Sundy has taken to Twitter to set the record straight as far as the brawl with Draya goes. She claims that it wasn't Draya who hit her but instead she says it was Malaysia Pargo. After hearing for days about how she was beat up by Draya, apparently Sundy had enough and wanted to make sure fans knew that Draya can't take her.
Tweets from @SundyCarter
@MalaysiaPargo hit me while I was held f*ck y'all 4 coming on my page this early abt stupid sh*t
Well @MalaysiaPargo then she got the message & knows what she did u ain't low passed off that good old gold cuff & snuck me take ya credit
Maybe this explains why Draya didn't take Sundy up on any of her many offers to meet up for a rematch. If Malaysia did indeed sneek Sundy while she was held down, that is just dirty. Sundy claims she beat Draya up twice.
Draya, ignoring the offers to rematch, had some words for Sundy on Twitter as well. "She is calling Sundy out for talking so badly about her child. ome things are worth standing up for..... The type of b**** who talks about another women's son usually ends up with a black eye," fired Draya.
In any case, there are a lot of women in the wrong on "Basketball Wives LA." For Sundy to be talking about Draya's child and her parenting abilities the way she did was just flat wrong. Especially after she got so upset at Brandi for asking about her own issues with her daughter.
What do you think of the Draya/Sundy fight? It kind of makes sense now to think that maybe Draya didn't blacken her eye after all.

Beat Tofu's scenario in Resident Evil 2: Completed.
Ragequits: Four.
Ugh. I'm pretty sure this minigame was pitched by someone at Capcom who hated their customers.
By and large, Resident Evil 2 is considered the best entry in the franchise--or at the very least, the best entry in the pre-Resident Evil 4 franchise. The game has you playing as college girl Claire Redfield or rookie cop Leon Kennedy (of Resident Evil 4 fame) as they struggle to survive in the zombie-overrun Raccoon City Police Department. You choose your character and explore the curiously large police station looking for an escape route, solving puzzles, and unraveling the mystery behind the viral outbreak.
The game was unique because of what Capcom dubbed the "zapping system." Claire and Leon get separated early in the story, so once you play through the game as one of them, you can save your data and play the story from the other one's point of view, meeting new characters and fighting new bosses. They each have an A scenario and a B scenario--playing through Leon A unlocks Claire B, and beating Claire A unlocks Leon B.
To keep you playing even longer, there are two more hidden mini-scenarios starring two different characters. "The 4th Survivor" stars the enigmatic Umbrella Security Service commando codenamed HUNK as he runs a gauntlet from the sewers to the roof of the RCPD in order to complete his mission and deliver a sample of the G-Virus to his bosses at Umbrella. With limited ammunition and healing items, HUNK's game poses quite a challenge.
Then there's Tofu's game.
For starters, you have to play through the main game six times to unlock "The Tofu Survivor," and you have to get at least an A-rank every time (note: as I'm playing the Nintendo 64 version of the game and I have other challenges to get to, I decided to use a cheat code to immediately unlock the minigame). As if this weren't sadistic enough, it has you running through the same course as HUNK, but with one key difference.
No guns. Just a knife and a handful of healing herbs.
In early Resident Evil games, the knife is worse than terrible. All you accomplish by trying to use it on an enemy is letting them know in which direction to bite. It's like stabbing a zombie with a mild breeze. Against more powerful enemies like lickers or giant spiders, you're better off trying to chop off your own head and praying that they choke to death on it.
So Tofu's game is more about evading the dozens of zombies and monsters that stand between you and your escape chopper. You navigate the narrow corridors, hoping to squeeze by unharmed. Sometimes you have to lure an enemy out of position and double back to get by; others, you just run for it.
This is about where you realize the downfall of playing as a giant block of tofu; it has no defining features, save two disembodied hands. All the other playable characters are humans, with easily discernable faces and bodies: against the blurry pre-rendered backgrounds with fixed camera angles, it's easy to tell which way they're facing and what angle they're running at. This is important, because the game controls with all the grace and precision of a broken refrigerator.
With Tofu, not only is it harder to accurately judge your angle when running, but when you get mobbed by a big group of zombies (and you will) it's nearly impossible to tell if you've been grabbed from the back or the front. As a result, it's also harder to tell which way you'll start running when you break loose (hint: it's going to be straight into another zombie's face).
Ugh. I cursed. I turned off the game and took a break and came back to it later, and cursed some more. For the first time since middle school, I wanted to throw a controller. This was just awful. There are apparently people who play through entire Resident Evil games using only the knife, and I can only imagine they do it with bamboo splinters under their fingernails while eating a bowl full of broken lightbulbs, because those are fun things too I guess.
Eventually, somehow, I prevailed. This 8-minute minigame took me about four and a half hours to finish.
CHALLENGE COMPLETE. My reward? HUNK is waiting in the escape chopper and he kills and eats Tofu. I had heard about this before I tried the challenge, and I didn't understand why that was considered a reward. But now, I understand.
I understand.
I hope you were still alive when he started eating you, Tofu.
Merry Christmas everyone!
CHALLENGE 4: Beat a Halo game from start to finish on Legendary difficulty.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - On the second day of competition at the Counsilman Classic at the IUPUI Natatorium, Arizona State senior Nick Brunelli captured the 50m freestyle title with a time of 22.69 in the USA Swimming Grand Prix meet. Brunelli came into the evening's finals as the fourth seed after a preliminary round time of 23.19 but touched the wall first in the evening's finals in his first long course meters meet of the year.
In a 200m breaststroke final including several of the world's preeminent swimmers in this discipline, junior ?gnes Kov?cs, the reigning Olympic gold medalist in the event, touched the wall in fourth place with a time of 2:30.57. The 400m freestyle saw sophomore Kathryn Hennessy notch a time of 4:29.59 while former Sun Devil standout Mandy Stanford placed sixth overall with a time of 4:18.62.

The Counsilman Classic concludes tomorrow with the 800m freestyle (women), 1500m freestyle (men), 200m IM, 200m backstroke, and 100m freestyle.

imposter - i am the rush within the raid
imposter - aren't we all set to detonate.
the bulwarks have all shanties erased and we're all choking on the aftertaste
the cartels where destitution leads - enjoy the occidental stampede
these fraudulent defenders are all coming of age
extraneous endeavors to finalize their wage
ah worshipper of assets - the affiliate herd

- rebellion is the blood that trickles from this bass
4 i cut - my skin - and show my brittle bones

The magazine is MORE, but I can do with much LESS of highlighting the traitor Jane Fonda. She is in great shape and looks wonderfully young—how about the poor POWs she screwed up during the Vietnam war? Guess you are too young to remember the harm and beating these poor guys endured after her jaunt around. It may help to do some research to educate the readers about her past. Doubt if any of our military is laughing with her. I will now cancel my subscription. Please remit a refund.
--Eloise Champi
I enjoyed the piece on Chelsea Handler, but I wish that just once, when a journalist notes that the subject of an interview "doesn't consider herself a feminist," the statement is further explored. Does Handler believe that men are superior to women? Does she believe that a woman's place is in the home? Does she believe that the world would be a better place if women didn't have the vote? What?
Feminism at its base is about self-determination. Journalists need to stop accepting the "I'm not a feminist" line at face value and dig into what women really mean when they say that.
--Amy Richards
I am on the train from NYC to CT reading your Letter from the Editor entitled "The Contradictions of Aging." I am 44, and my mom is 85. To this day, people stop my mom in stores, etc., and ask if they can photograph her. She is so beautiful inside and out. I credit my mom with teaching me, by example, how to age gracefully. (On a funny side note, I have given her More magazine to read a few times. While she likes it, she wishes there were a magazine like More for her age group! If I had the gumption, I would try to pitch that idea, but I'm too tired. I said I reached "total aging acceptance nirvana," but I didn't say I'm not tired!)
The line I learned from my mom and will carry with me for the rest of my life is, "Aging ain't for sissies!"
My mom has taught my sister and me (and two brothers :) ) to be content in whatever stage of life we are in. Both of my parents encouraged balance in our lives. In all things, moderation. They taught us to laugh, pray, get plenty of sleep and enjoy a glass of wine or a sweet when needed.
I have watched my body, skin, hair and nails change ever so slightly each year, but feel it is perfectly balanced with the casual confidence I have found at 44 vs. 24. Each year seems to get better and better, as my emotional struggles seem to melt away.
Don't know if you will even see this message. I just felt compelled to share. You did say to contact you if we have reached "acceptance nirvana," so I figured I'd take you up on that. Maybe I should check back with you at 50, 60, 70 and 80 to see if I am still in acceptance, but so far so good!
Thanks for such heartfelt Letters from the Editor!
--Ruth Swift
"Letter from the Editor is my favorite page in More magazine. It's similar to Oprah's back page, but I relate to it more.
Thank you,
--Barb Gustafson
I like More magazine and the idea of having a magazine for mature women. Because you are marketing a magazine for women over 40 (I'm 51), the print size needs to be larger. Some of the articles contain small print that doesn't even read well with prescription reading glasses. As we age, the ability to read very small print decreases for most people. Think of trying to read the small print on a pill bottle! I have normal vision for my age but struggle with some of the articles. Please consider making the print size slightly larger because of the age of your audience. Thank you for your time.
--Mary Denault
I have been a subscriber for two years plus and love your magazine—I have included two of my friends in my subscription renewals. I almost want to cancel my subscription in protest because of your choice of Chelsea Handler on the cover. More is about women empowering one another and those around them, about great women doing great things, big and small. Chelsea Handler is about bringing people down and stomping on them in the name of "entertainment" and foremost to line her pockets.

Running Time: 183 Min.
Director: Belladonna
Company: Belladonna Entertainment
Distribution Companies: Evil Angel
DVD Extras: Behind the Scenes, Biography(ies), Cumshot Recap, Trailer(s)
Cast: Kimberly Kane, Kristina Rose, Ann Marie Rios, Sammie Rhodes, Lou Charmelle, Belladonna, Sinn Sage, Lily LaBeau, Lexi Belle, Alexis Texas, Tori Lux
Critical Rating: AAAA 1/2
Genre: All-Girl
Evil Angel's queen of lesbian pornography, Belladonna, directs 10 beautiful, young babes who truly appreciate the wonderful stink of a sweaty pussy! In Dirty Panties, the director's cast of lovelies enjoys the powerful aroma that emanates from a woman's moist butt crack; they indulge this nasty obsession with lots of passionate panty tease, underwear-sniffing, foot worship and kissing. These are the type of adventurous girls who will shove a pair of panties deep inside their partner's vagina just so they can inhale the musky aroma of the juice-flavored undies. When it comes to unpredictable girl-on-girl perversion, it smells like Bella has a corner on the market!
Belladonna gives us fantastic girl/girl pervy fun in this two-discer with sweaty chicks perving out on each other's body scents, textures and tastes. It's dirty and more sensory-driven than some other lesbian entries and it's hella good.
Former Metro contract performer Ann Marie Rios instructs Alexis Texas in how to get a good workout, and the shots of Texas' ass while working a hula hoop around her hips are worth the price of the DVD alone for ass fans. In their fuck, Rios' panties get stuffed in her so that Texas can taste her juices, while Rios loves licking the sweat off Texas' rack.
Lexi Belle and Tori Lux get salty and sweaty in their bikinis on the beach and enjoy each other's funk and cum on a bed. Kimberly Kane and Lily LaBeau sing the Rocky theme as they run up and down a stairwell before Kane buries her face in LaBeau's ass and talks about the cock she smells in there. Sammie Rhodes loves the sound of Lou Charmelle's French accent and having her face in her ass, and with both girls' panties jammed in her twat, it's safe to say that Rhodes hit a new stride as a performer that day.
Kristina Rose and Sinn Sage wrestle each other on a futon mat. Mid-kiss, Rose finds her way to Sage's armpit and then her ass crack and gets a good sniff and lick. Their fuck is frenzied and their energy is one of absolute joy. The look on Rose's face while she buries her nose in Sage's pubes suggests she'd die happy if her life ended right there.
The director ends things with a solo scene of herself. She wears a panda hoodie and a stocking mask and rolls around on a bed of her own panties while giving us primo tease and jilling off.
