I have been using these tires for several years now. I minimize flat tires by using new tires at the most every year. The rare flats I have had were all due to very thin and sharp thorns. I also like that the tires are made in Germany which gives me confidence in their quality. Incidentally I see some people riding these tires on a 42 degree banked velodrome.
I have been riding these tires for years and they NEVER disappoint. Flatting has been virtually eliminated from my riding regimen. I basically ride these tires to the point where the tread is worn to oblivion. I personally don't have a single "con" when it comes to these tires. I hope the 4000S II's maintain the same standards!
Customer Service from Probikekit has been exceptional. My recent purchase of Continental Grand Prix 4000s tires arrived prior to the targeted delivery date. The prices of these tires is untouched by other on-line stores. I will do more business through Probikekit in the future. Randy
I am now on my third set of Continental GP 4000s. I did have an issue with a side wall on my first set, but I have learned that this is a weak spot and I am very careful not let the sidewall hit anything as I ride. Other than than they are great all around training and even racing (amateur) tires. They hold in wet and I feel confident enough to hit 45+ MPH on a downhill without a big worry of a blow out. I will keep buying this tire and will recommend it to cyclist in a semi-competitive range of riding.
These tires are wonderful! I am a larger frame male, 5'9" 220 lbs., living in Michigan and I have over 1000 miles on this set of tires and no flats. These tires wear well and corner great. I rotated the tires at 750 miles and look forward to rotating them before winter around 1500 miles. I purchased a pair that was made in Germany which is hand built. I have heard of people having problems with sidewalls giving out and I think they may have had a set from China which are not as good. The roads in Michigan can be in rough shape and these tires handled the potholes and uneven road surfaces well. The tires are very stable at high speeds. (52mph). I will buy another set when these wear out and I recommend these tires to all serious riders who enjoy ridding and don't want to worry about there tires durability.
Best tire for the money on the market.
Have used these tires and been very satisfied. today had a sidewall blowout on new tire. Found an oblique cut running nearly from rim to rim with blowout on sidewall. On inspection I found exactly same defect on the other tire. Don't know of running over anything. Suspect that may have happend but wonder if anybody has had similar problem?
Been using these tires for years - I truly believe they're the best, and Probikekit sells them at a great price!
The 4000s is the tire to use if you absolutely want to have the least chance of flatting during an important ride (e.g., race day, out in the boonies, etc). That said, you do give up some things for that reliability: long break in period (1000+ miles), harsher than other race tires even after break in, and decreased road feel. In the first few hundred miles they're absolutely brutal, feeling like solid rubber tires. They last a long time. At at 3500 miles on my last set the wear indicators still showed a lot of remaining tread life, and they had no cracks or deep cuts.
Great Tire, fast, corners well. It holds up well for the most part, but not good for roads with lots of debris. With PBK prices you can't go wrong.
I have been using them for years. Prices are great and so are the products. Would highly recommend.
My long time 'go to' tires have been Vittoria Rubino Pro Slicks. They are good all arounders. The GP 4000S are lighter, faster, more supple and grip the road better. They are superior to anything I've used. The price for a two pack could not be beat which was the cherry on an already tasty cake.
I have been using these tires for many years (8000 miles per year). I find they ride better the tires I have used in the past and they are very durable and resistant to flats.
I love these tires, but I've had numerous sidewall failures. I would guess that I've used about 15 of these tires (maybe more) and about 1 out of 5 have detrimental sidewall blowout failures. Like other people, I'll buy enough to last me a few years when they go on sale and the currency exchange rate is favorable and they tend to last quite a while. When they fail though, it's within 25 - 50 miles of being installed. I'm not sure if the 4000s II's address this issue and I'll be curious to see how they fair. Yes, I've checked the rims for nicks, etc. and there's nothing wrong with the rims, install, etc.
Love this tire. It's smooth, corners like it's on rails and wears well. I usually buy several at a time from Probikekit. Great price!
These are the only tires I buy. They last plenty long enough for most riders. They are stable in the corners and everywhere else. They are the only tire I have used that feels reassuring while cornering, instead of skittish. I can't recommend these any more highly.
I have tried a number of tires and have never found any more reliable than the Conti4000S. Clearly, the best tire...No doubt!! I ride in some pretty shoddy roads in South Texas and these tires have proven themselves to perform above other brands.
best all-around tire. all riders in my group ride with this. basically we are weekend warriors, club riders ... and do a few centuries, week-long tours. best price-performance. grips very well and good treadwear
I've tried all the top brands, but the one I keep coming back to is the tried and true Conti GP 4000S. It provides great road feel, excellent handling and cornering, and a long, sturdy life expectancy. Everything you want from your tires.
Tires grab, ride great and feel fast. Great price and fast shippin.
Continental GP tires are the best. I am a large rider (240 lbs.), and these are the only tires I can count on for thousands of miles of flat-free biking. If you are not a skinny Euro-pro type, these are your tires.
Perfect riding tires, highly recommended
These tires are the best. Great grip and fairly light. Best of all, way less flats then traditional tires.
So, I got these tires because when I was looking for something new, pretty much every review I could find suggested going with the GP4000s and PBK has an awesome price on them. I only have about 100 miles on them, so I can't speak for durability, but in terms of ride there are a few things worth noting. 1) the grip is exactly what I expected, I feel like I'm carving into the concrete when I turn hard. It's quite the impressive feeling. 2) The tires were very well manufactured, they are very consistent. The only issue is that there was a lot of leftover from the molds, but that's wearing off now. 3) The ride/feel of them is better than other tires I've tried (zafforia's and hutchison mainly) they roll really well at 120psi and offer a somewhat smoother ride at the same pressures/sizes. 4) They were *very* tight to install, but they definitely won't be pulling out by accident. I realize the kevlar bead is 90% of this, but they could use to have just a bit more stretch. 5) I can tell that they are lighter than my last tires, and the feeling is great. Totally worth the expense just for that. All-in-all I'll be buying another set later in the year when I get these worn down enough.
The Continental Grand Prix 4000S is one the best tires I've ridden for year round conditions in Colorado. Lightweight and solid construction give it a superior ride performance that minimizes road chatter and keeps you going for those all day adventures. Long lasting mileage make them my tire choice for past several years and PBK offers the best pricing I've come across!
I have used 23mm Continental 4000S Black Chili tyres for almost three years. I can get 6500km of tread wear from these tyres. This is a combination of 4000km on the front and 2500km on the rear. However, I find that life of this tyre is more often governed by sidewall integrity, than by tread life. Over half the time I have changed out the tyre due to sidewall slits rather than worn tread. Other cyclists I know say the same thing. Nevertheless, all things considered, these tyres are the best value, considering overall life, ride comfort, and price.
These are the only tires I will ride. I am stocking up on these at this price. I use a set per summer and ride an average of 2000 miles without any problems. If they make a better tire I haven't found it for the $.
They have the best price for this ttre (online or local). Reasonable shipping (2 tyres got me to free/racked shippingw). The package arrived promptly and I'm enjoying the new tyres. I plan to shop first for all my cycling needs.
It's difficult to "not" use the Continental GP 4000s clincher road tires reason being, they work well in any weather. Using these tires for 4 seasons has been nothing short the best tires available. They wear slowly and you're able to vary the tire pressure which makes the ride better.
This is a very good tyre that is durable enough to train on, yet still light enough to race on. Coupled with a good price it is my standard tyre and I keep several in stock.
This is my 3rd pair of 4000s. I went the last 8 months riding on gatorskins . Race season started so I switched to 4000s. The first ride was amazing. I can feel how much faster they roll. The second ride I went up to the mountains. On the descent it was night and day compare to other tires. The grip on the turns was too good to be true. I carried as much speed into the turns and never used my brakes. I just leaned the bike and it went right where I wanted it to. the feeling of security when I ride on 4000s is mind blowing. And you get all this $80 a pair. Amazing.
This is the best training/racing tire available.
After many years trying every kind of tire I discovered the continental GP 4000. What a great discovery, long wearing, positive feeling tire. I would recommend them to anyone.
Have run several different tyres for both training and racing, and I will continue to choose the 4000s, until Conti comes up with something better than the BlackChiliComp.
I ride over 12,000 miles a year over pretty rough terrain so I have cycled through quite a few tires brands. By far, my favorites are the Conti GP 4000S tires.. I have yet to have one give out prematurely. The tires grip well and have some of the best rolling resistance numbers out there. I think puncture resistance is better than most and I ride them all year long for both commuting and racing. The tires come with wear markers are I find these are helpful indicators of when to replace them. It's also important to note that these are directional tires and because the arrows are hard to see, the easiest way to orient them is to look at the imprinted geometries. The shallower slope of the opposing triangles should face forward. When I can find them, I opt for the 25 mm versions. They have better rolling resistance and with the added air volume, I like having a bit more time to react in the event of a flat. If you're concerned about aero effects, one option is to run 23's in the front and 25's in the back.
The tires are great and the price was fantastic. What more could you want.
These are the best tire available. Tough, trouble free and at a great price. These provide 1000's of trouble free miles. Thanks Probikekit.com for the great price and service
Great high quality road tire, been using them for years and this is a great price!
Excellent tire, light, long lasting, good road grip. Tremendous value and smooth transaction!!
Excellent tires. Maybe the best on the market. Excellent value as well
I have been using the continental GP 4000S tires for the last few seasons. I have had excellent performance from the tires and they have been very dependable.
Excellent tire, handles well , good tread life. My go to tire.
Very simply, the highest quality tires available. They wear exceptionally well, maintain their tread and rarely if ever flat which also makes them overall very economical when compared to other tires. No reason to use any other tire for recreational riding or even racing.
These tires are fast and feel great. A little bit soft for me to use as a rear tire since I am over 200 pounds. I rather use a 4 seasons or gator skin for the rear due to my weight.
These Continental Grand Prix 4000S tyres are really good value for the money. They may not be the cheapest bike tyre on the market, however they wear incredibly well, are long lasting and quite puncture resistant. Don't leave home without them......
Excellent transaction. Excellent delivery!
I have been riding "Contis" for a number of years on my road bikes and decided to branch out and try some other top brands. After seeing some nice things (supple road feel), some bad things (tires that flat if you look at them too long), I came back to GP4000s as my go to training and racing tires. I think in terms of balance of positive attributes of rolling resistance, weight, durability, and performance, these are my currenr favorite performance road clinchers on the market.
I have been using these tires for 3 seasons now, and see no reason to consider another brand or model. They do exactly what they are supposed to do, stick without feeling mushy. No worries on inflation, I inflate them to 95-115 on my Mavic wheels and 85-100 on my Hed wheels. Excellent treadwear (indicators can be checked for quick reference) and very resistant sidewalls. I stock up whenever they are on sale!
I've used these tires for several years now. They have great traction, wear very well and are somewhat puncture resistant. I've tried differnt tires and keep coming back to these not fancy and promoting themselves as something special just a good solid tire for both racing and training.
Conti's GP 4000S Clinchers are probably the best balance of durability, grip, weight, and speed of any tyre available.

This is a follow-up recipe to my veggie lunch meat. When I made the original recipe I did not try to make it taste like any specific meat since I have found that texture is often more important in a sandwich. This time, though, I attempted a smoked turkey/chicken type meat and the end result was met with great acclaim by the whole family. A few caveats though: 1. All I had on hand was Mori-Nu tofu; I'm not sure if this makes a big difference. 2. Not all liquid smoke is equal. I have gone with the cheap stuff before and it is pretty nasty.
- 12oz firm tofu
- 2 cups water
- 1/4 cup oil
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 12oz firm tofu
- 2 cups water
- 1/4 cup oil
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp Bragg's
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp paprika
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp tumeric
- 1 tsp paprika
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp tumeric
- 2 tsp poultry seasoning
- 1/4 tsp hickory liquid smoke
- 3 1/4 cups vital wheat gluten
Get water steaming in your steamer. You will need a large steamer.
1. Place all ingredients except the gluten flour in a blender and process until very smooth. Pour into a bowl. Add gluten flour and work into a dough. Knead for a few mins to let gluten develop.
2. Shape dough into a log and wrap in heavy duty foil like a tootsie roll. Try to make the roll as thick as possible. Steam for 1 hour.
3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees in the last 15 mins of steaming. Remove seitan from steamer and bake for 40-50 mins. Seitan should swell and press against the foil.
4. Cool and slice as needed for sandwiches. This seitan holds up very well and can be shaved very thin. Store in the fridge or freezer. This recipe makes a lot, so you can cut it into 3 or four chunks and store them away for later.

Sometimes the best act of kindness one person can do for another is simply to take the time to remember.
The students at Cross High School did just that last week by investing their time and creative effort to make sure others remembered as well.
The date was March 25, 2007, a date forever seared into the minds and hearts of those working for the Town of Moncks Corner and those elected to serve on its council.
It is a dark and tragic day in our towns history, said Mayor Bill Peagler. A day when we lost two of our own. Every time I speak with police officers, the last thing I say to them is to stay safe out there and come back home at the days end.
This day, two of Moncks Corners own, officers Lonnie Wells, 40 and Marcus Stiles, 26, did not make it back home.
Wells and Stiles were gunned down in the line of duty by a man, Gary Douglas intent on a murderous rampage, and going out in a blaze of glory.
They say it only takes one fool, Peagler said, And on the this day the fool won.
The mayor said making that trip to the homes of the families was the hardest thing hes had to do during his career of public service.
To walk up to their front door and to tell that little girl and her mother that their father and husband wouldnt be coming home anymore, that he didnt make it, its the hardest thing Ive ever had to do in my life, and something I hope I never have to do again.
Officers Wells and Stiles answered the ultimate call of duty when they gave their lives in protection of Moncks Corner and the students of Cross paid homaged to these two local heroes with the creation of a poster mural depicting their lives and careers in art.
These students took the time and the effort to create an informative work of art that pays tribute to two of Moncks Corners finest young men, Peagler said.
There isnt a day goes by where they arent in our thoughts and in our prayers.

Christmas trees were first used outdoors, history tells us, probably about 1,000 years ago in Northern Europe. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert popularized their use indoors in 1846. The trend swiftly spread to Americas east coast, because the sketch of the Royal Family surrounding a Christmas tree appeared in the widely circulated Illustrated London News.
This makes it more than probable that Summerville celebrated the Christmas of 1847 with indoor trees. They would have been decorated with paper chains, apples, nuts and cookies to mark the towns incorporation on December 17 of that year. Although Summerville is now 166 years old, official Summerville outdoor trees were first used over 50 years ago when those flanking town hall were lit for the holidays.
Christmas trees glow in family histories too. When I was young we had huge trees lit with large colored bulbs and dripping with tinsel. Jim and I have shared 56 Christmases. With four children and six grands, weve had a myriad of trees and collected innumerable ornaments. They are all precious and range from a tiny cookie dough angel with elephant sized wings made in our daughters kindergarten to a Waterford shamrock tree from our family trip to Ireland.
In 2007 we revamped our house into an open plan, thus losing two walls and a place for a large Christmas tree. This is great, exclaimed Jim. Now we can downsize. Hes still not quite sure how weve downsized from one huge tree to six small ones.( I was NOT losing all those precious family memory ornaments!)
Not to be outdone, my sister and her husband added a cathedral ceilinged family room and were able to upsize to eight trees. Her biggest is a Blue Ridge Mountain tree, paying homage to their Virginia home with blue lights, blue bulbs and ornaments depicting that Commonwealths animal life. One of her smallest is the traditional Charlie Brown tree with its scarce limb, one red ornament and Cynthias addition of Linus blue security blanket.
Daughter Cathy has decorated her huge tree in deep Victorian colors and ornaments augmented with long crystal icicles. This accompanies her Dickens Village pieces set out like a typical English village, reminiscent of our years living in Great Britain.
I havent seen our daughter Mary Clares tree as she lives in Lexington, but am told its topped with a delightfully laden Santa sled which she got this fall in North Carolina as a reminder of our trip together there this year.
Our son David offered to get rid of the oyster shells from our recent oyster roast. He disposed of them by using some to make a quartet of 15-inch Christmas trees. The whole family worked on them, using a glue gun to affix the shells onto a foam cone, shingle style and topped by gold stars. I cant tell you how many delightful family beach trips and oyster roasts the sight of these trees will bring to mind for us all.
One of the many versions of some of the lyrics to that favorite carol, O Christmas Tree sums it up for me and I hope you too.
How often has the Christmas Tree
Afforded me the greatest glee!
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Much pleasure thou canst give me.
And so, as Tiny Tim said, A Merry Christmas to us all; God bless us, every one!

text: Women's Soccer Wins Atlantic Sun Opener Over Ospreys September 28, 2013 The Stetson women's soccer team opened up Atlantic Sun Conference play with a win, defeating North Florida by a score of 1-0 on Friday night at the Athletic Training Center. Senior Kait Jones scored from sophomore Danielle Hurme in the first half to lead the Hatters to the victory. "I was proud of them," Stetson head coach Manoj Khettry said of his team. "They started well, and they competed well from the get-go. I think it was a well-deserved win." Stetson (3-5-1, 1-0-0) snapped a three-match losing skid, earning a win in its first A-Sun contest of the year. The victory matched last season's total for the Hatters in both conference wins (1) and overall wins (3). "We've played well at times and we haven't gotten positive results," Khettry continued. "Today wasn't necessarily our best performance in terms of the quality of soccer we produced, but the quality of the goal we scored was fantastic, [and] I thought we created a number of really good opportunities." The Hatters created a number of quality chances throughout the game, but it was one midway through the first half that put Stetson on the board, and led to the 1-0 victory over North Florida (3-6-2, 0-1-0). Hurme, who came off the bench to play 68 minutes on Friday night, controlled the ball just past midfield and found a perfect lane to slot it through. Her pass sliced through the Osprey defense to a sprinting Jones, who found time to settle the ball and put it by Megan Dorsey. "[Danielle Hurme] came into the game as a sub," Khettry said. "We ask subs to give us a spark, to lift us, and she did immediately with her play. That ball, a 25-30 yard ball on the ground with her left foot, splitting two defenders, into [Kait Jones's] run, what a quality pass [that was]." Jones's goal in the 27th minute proved to be the game-winner, her second of the season. The senior forward scored the game-winning goal when Stetson topped Troy 2-1 in overtime back on August 25th. The scored was the sixth of Jones's career. An aggressive match by both teams, the Hatters continued to fight through halftime. Both Stetson and UNF had their chances, but neither was able to capitalize. A sliding save by senior Victoria Troccoli to break up a good chance for the Ospreys early in the second half was likely UNF's best opportunity to even things up. Stetson, meanwhile, had opportunities to extend its lead in the second half, namely a cross from senior Alyssa Welsh that found the head of sophomore Mara Keomanivane in the box. Keomanivane's attempt missed just wide of the goal and the Hatters were forced to hang on to their 1-0 lead for the final 16 minutes of the contest. Troccoli finished with three saves in the contest, recording her third shutout of the season. Dorsey totaled four saves in the loss for UNF. "We did a great job of challenging for balls in midfield," Khettry said. "I saw a great deal of effort defensively from individuals and collectively. You could see in their eyes that they weren't going to be denied. They wanted to win. They wanted to get three points. I'm really proud of them for that." Stetson will welcome Jacksonville to the Athletic Training Center on Sunday for a 1:00 p.m. match. The game will be available on HatterVision with Ryan Rouse on the call.

In a lot adjacent to the Sunrise Presbyterian Church, the only polling place on Sullivan's Island, there were two tents. One large tent provided shelter to five candidates. The other – a much smaller space – housed Carl Smith during Tuesday's election.
The divide among political stances, most specifically whether or not to have a school referendum, was in plain sight. In addition to the race for the First Congressional District, Sullivan's Island residents were voting for a mayor and three town council members.
The public voted against two tents, electing Mike Perkis as the new mayor by a 459 to 430 margin. They also re-elected Pat O'Neil, who received 510 votes and brought in Chauncey Clark (486) and Susan Middaugh (478). Bill Matthews, a Sullivan's Island resident of three years, was not elected and received 352 votes.
Despite the tight race for mayor, there will not be a runoff, because Perkis received more than 50 percent of the total 905 ballots cast. He needed 453 to avoid a runoff, and he got six more than that.
Perkis is the town's mayor pro tem. He was elected by the public in 2005 and then re-elected in the following election. He was given the mayor pro tem tag by his peers on council in a unianimous vote. On Tuesday afternoon, Perkis said he was "absolutely" confident he would win the race.
Although he and Smith agree on several issues, the polarizing topic of late is about Sullivan's Island Elementary School. The town went ahead with plans to build a larger school on the island that would have about 500 students after the Charleston County School District refused to build a school that would hold less than 500 students, citing architectural reasons.
The previous elementary school on the island had to be closed down because of safety concerns. Students were moved to a building on Rifle Range Road in Mount Pleasant.
Smith opposed not sending the plans to a public vote. He maintained that while he supports the school returning to the island, he wants one of smaller size. Other opposition on Sullivan's Island created petitions with the necessary total percentage of resident signatures by law to demand a public vote.
But, town council and outside legal counsel deemed the petitions defective and the school's construction plans continued. The foundation has been laid at the new site. Residents representing the petitions filed a lawsuit against town council, but the construction is under a lease agreement with the school district so it continues.
All six current council members voted for the school's current path, and Smith has been the lone vote against. The three new faces to politics on the island – Clark, Middaugh and Matthews – all coincide with the current path.
Perkis declared he would run for mayor shortly after Smith publicly said he would not seek a third term. Smith has been in office since 1987. But, about a month ago, Smith declared he was supporting several residents who urged him to run as a write-in candidate, once the filing date to become an official candidate had passed.
"I had a few people (in mind) I was hoping would run," he said, Tuesday afternoon. "I thought if I said I wasn't running, they would step forward, but that never happened. I was ready to retire and give it up, but sometimes you wonder: is this your destiny?"
Smith cited Strom Thurmond as a political figure who was elected as a write-in candidate for Senate. Signs – some of the homemade variety and others more traditional – were abundant in support of Smith. He said his favorite was one that reads "You can steal my sign, but you can't steal my vote."
"There have been a fair number of my signs that have been stolen – knocked down, broken up, taken away," he said. "That's juvenile."
He said he didn't pay for any of them and was not among those placing the signs around town. "I haven't spent one penny. I haven't done anything. I haven't made those signs. The nicer ones – somebody else had those made and paid for them. The homemade ones are just that: homemade by several people.
"I have not authorized or placed or done anything with these signs. It's all been grassroots. It's just been amazing."
Smith added that he's thankful to have the support. "It's pretty impressive. It's gratifying. What it's saying is there are people out there that like what I have been doing for 26 years."
According to town ordinance, all political signs have to be removed by a week after the election.
Perkis now faces the difficult task of regrouping the island with at least 427 people who would have preferred Smith keep his job. "I would be really disappointed if within six months to a year, I can't redirect the energy of these people who are against the school positively back to the other things we have to do, like (building a new) town hall, the accreded land, the infrastructure and stuff like that," Perkis said.
While he admitted the school was the primary issue between candidates with this election, he said he hoped people voted for him for other reasons too. He cited his personal management style as more active and considered Smith's to be more laissez faire.
"You can't kick the can down the road, which I think is something that has been done, especially the last eight years he was mayor," Perkis said.
Prior to the votes being counted, he said if Smith is re-elected, "the only thing that would happen is extend the divisiveness." But, with the exception of Matthews, all the candidates are at least under the same tent.

The wise individual who can enjoy the aroma given off by pair of soiled female pantys snatched from a dirty clothes hamper, laundry room or the floor after banging them. The crotch panel usually has a strong cunt smell ranging from soft and fruity to strong and tangy. While alone, the sniffer will usually enjoy holding the filthy crotch to thier nose, slowly inhaling the aroma, while stroking thier cock. An occasional lick to the stain gives the oral pleasure as well. The odor, the tangy taste and the pumping of thier cock quickly brings one to an explosive orgasm.
After I woke up in the morning, I pocketed her panties she soaked the night before. She was asleep so I riffled through her hamper and found a great pair of black cotton thongs with the greatest, funkiest smelling crusty crotch panel. I took them too. When I got home, I kept them in zip lock bags and the scent and taste stayed for weeks. I was so sore from jacking off to that pleasure.

Can you define these popular missing words?
This (usually) being a male of any age who sniffs the used and soiled panties of a girl, lady or woman. The stained panties of women have a wide variety of smells and tastes, ranging from urine stains, vaginal juice stains, menstrual blood stains, vaginal mucus stains to feces stains. The odour of the stain(s) can be highly arousing to the sniffer and masturbation is often conducted in a highly aroused state, almost beyond the sexual highs of regular sexual contact. This 'high' is due to an additional adrenalin release because of the 'guilt' factor of solitary masturbation with a fetish object. Regular panty sniffers often become so obsessed with the act, that they will go to extraordinary lengths to obtain used women panties. The ultimate goal is often used schoolgirl panties; which have a slightly fishy odour and are often heavily stained with young vaginal juices. Some sniffers prefer the more mature lady's panties which have a higher mucus content and that zinc pink odour and taste, mixed with a few drops of stale urine. Then there is the more perverse individual who seeks for evidence of feces or stools staining.
Desmond, went to the bathroom immediately after his cousin Sarah had showered and locked the door. There on the floor were her panties and night shirt tossed in the corner. Little did Sarah know that he masturbated furiously each morning with her panties over his head. To him, those panties were worth more than solid gold.

First wheel is the person that is the lonely wheel in the front of a tricycle and the happy couple are represented as the back two wheels. Being the first wheel usually puts you in an uncomfortable position given then fact that you are forced to be around your friend and her/his mate. But remember, a tricycle can't function without the front wheel so the first wheel is a necessary component of the back two tires relationship.
Me: "Gosh Sammy, you are such the first wheel of this tricycle...look at Robby and Natalie that happy couple of tires back their and you're up here in the front such a lonesome tire...the first wheel"

While engineers of previous generations were able to rely on a combination of engineering intuition and experience to design the cooling of their electronic systems, the ever-increasing consumer demands for greater performance in a smaller package, means this type of speculative prototyping is no-longer effective.
Reliance on intuition and trial-and-error prototyping to predict the cooling of complex electronic systems is a certain guarantee for bad results and failure, in addition to burgeoning design and development costs and time. This affects products by decreasing the profit margins, delaying product time to market and increasing product and repair cost. Most importantly, relying solely on physical testing limits the innovation that can be designed into the product.
In this increasingly competitive market place, only numerical simulation can provide the necessary insight into product performance early in the design process. Temperature is a very limiting factor for electronic devices and as devices move to higher power density, the higher temperatures reduce component efficiency and product life.
The need for more sophisticated and intelligent cooling strategies to keep up with rising demands can only be met by designing the electronic systems in an intelligent and sustainable manner using innovative technologies that can identify problems at an early stage. At CD-adapco, we understand this new reality for future electronics systems and have adapted our simulation solutions to offer the best-fit for electronics cooling design.
Our flagship software, STAR-CCM+, offers a no-compromise simulation solution for your Electronics Cooling problems. With STAR-CCM+, there is no simplification of geometry and any complex electronics circuit with its hundreds of components can be handled with ease. Most electronics simulation tools stop with Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) simulations, the most common physics handled in this area.
STAR-CCM+ offers industry leading conduction, convection and radiation modeling capabilities but doesn't just stop there. Other advanced physics like liquid cooling which required multi-phase capabilities, fan performance and acoustics which can be handled by rotating machinery and aeroacoustics models, hydrogen build-up from battery decay, water intrusion and many more can be handled accurately and effectively within STAR-CCM+.
In short, STAR-CCM+ is a no-compromise simulation solution for the Electronics industry that can:

Most of us have probably seen The Peaceable Kingdom, painted by 19th century American folk artist (and devout Quaker) Edward Hicks. He painted at least 60 versions of the original, but the theme never changed: Lion and prey live together in harmony. (If youre now humming Ebony and Ivory, my apologies.)
The artists inspiration was Isaiah 11: 6-8. The wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat, and the lion and the fattened calf together; and a little child shall lead them all.
We have no children at Crazy Acres, but weve got own version of The Peaceable Kingdom.
Molly is an old, lanky Lab, roughly the size of a water buffalo. At 14, her vision is almost shot, but her nose still works. We know this because a nearby gas station makes the best fried chicken in three counties, and several times a year Molly raises her anvil-sized head, sniffs deeply and goes AWOL. At her destination she shamelessly begs for crispy chicken skin, and always gets it.
Nicky is our tiny, spoiled JRT who adores Widdle and hates all dogs except Molly. The only thing she loves more than her man is food. Shes a pig.
The latest players are Ben & Jerry, gigantic red-combed roosters given to us by a reader, of whom Im now very fond. (Feedback is wonderful, but how many readers give you livestock?)
Ben & Jerry have more personality than some people. Theyre hilarious, sociable, affectionate and cluck a blue streak. Any day now we expect to see one of them strutting around in a top hat and monocle.
This menagerie is now a familyor a pack, or a flock, I dont know which. But by all appearances, theyre best friends.
When we were away recently, Widdles best friend went to the house for something. What he saw almost made him take the pledge. As he later exclaimed, First the dogs followed the chickens all around the yard, and then the chickens followed the dogs! Beat all I ever saw.
Imagine: A Lab, born and bred to retrieve birds, and a Jack Russell, born and bred to shake prey to death, wagging along behind two strutting roosters. (Were certain they all conversate, and if you could hear the clucks, whimpers and yips, youd believe it, too.)
They also share their vittles. Molly, it turns out, loves chicken food. When I walk out on the back porch, I carry B&Js feed in a ceramic cup and clink my ring against the side. B&J come running, with that hilarious, rolling drunken-sailor gait and with Molly hot on their heels. It doesnt matter how I distribute the foodthrow it in a wide arc, pour it into separate piles--Molly muscles in, unrolls that towel-sized tongue and sucks it up like a Hoover.
B&J feverishly eat as much as they can, until Molly is literally licking their feet. Then they retreat, complaining loudly, and peck the grass for bugs.
Sometimes, if were out of chicken scratch, I toss out a cup of Nickys special, very expensive kibblea salmon and sweet potato blend. On those days, its every man for himself. One little dog, one giant dog and two husky roosters all pile in and start gobbling as fast as they can. Then they all go under the oak tree for a nap.
Which, of course, begs the question: If they can all get along, why cant we?
Julie R. Smith, who loves her some roosters, can be reached at email@example.com.

"Underused Parts Of Everyday Animals". A food movement, popular in Vancouver B.C., aimed towards making use of the entire animal. Also a term for offal and variety meats. Cow tongues, chicken livers, and veal thymus are viable, tasty meat options.
Those were great tongue tacos last night! Can we have UPOEA for dinner every night?

There's never enough room to include all the information on all the families and homes in the Kitchen Tour brochure. There's not enough room here either, but I can at least hope to tickle your curiosity to learn more about them and the Pine Forest Inn (PFI) area of the 2013 tour Sunday, October 6, which benefits this area's abused and neglected children.
The Alexanders win the "It Was Meant To Be" award for living on President Circle. While shivering through a cold New England winter 30 years ago, Michael found an old photo showing a warm southern street with oak trees dripping in Spanish moss. "This," he told Mary without ever looking at the photo caption, "is where we should be living!" Several moves later, unpacking at their Summerville home they saw that photo again. The picture was of Sumter Avenue, just a few streets away!
While walking around President Circle during some construction, Diane Bagwell found dozens of shards of china with PFI logos and designs which she is planning to fashion into a mosaic. Her back yard includes what has been dubbed an "Herb Chateau," a former greenhouse which she now uses as a relaxation spot -- a place adapted to sit and read and play with grandkids
Palm trees are a favorite plant and a favorite theme for Sheila and Todd Beson. They are seen everywhere around the house and are featured as a print on red wall paper on the back of their built in bar. The doors are the traditional swing type but fronted with etched glass. The backlit bar serves as a delightful accent in their family room.
Betty and Tommy Black have beautifully shining hardwood floors throughout the house and a brick floor on the comfy screened porch which also has wicker furniture and an old fashioned glider swing. Betty wonders if some of the older mismatched spindles on her front porch railing might have come from the Pine Forest Inn.
Melanie and Peter Fortkort's foyer opens to two floors and is accented by a spiral staircase. One of their favorite parts of their home is the step down great room, also called "The Christmas Room," where their holiday tree reflects its best with huge windows and a skylight.
The South Carolina Historic Landscape Initiative documenting the PFI has focused on The Harrison Gardens in one of their publications. Included is a detailed plant list with 37 entries accompanied by a diagram of each location. There are also color photographs of blooming gardens. Lynn and Jack say the survey and booklet design were accomplished by members of the Flowertown Garden Club.
Katie and Ray Hayes' front door of "The Barn" weighs 400 pounds and was made by Ray with thick wood from an old factory. He glued boards together with the same glue that Howard Hughes used to build his WWII wooden airplane, the Spruce Goose.
The Hayes' also have Summerville's Little Monticello on tour and say that the PFI's Lover's Lane was on their property, running right across the front lawn.
Amy and Kyle Hungerford's unique round dining room table has extensions that fit around the perimeter, enlarging the size without changing the shape. Their grandfather clock is from the late 1800s, when the PFI was built. A favorite space is their 10 foot wide front porch where they do a lot of entertaining.
Susan and Jim McClary have a backyard featuring a cabana, hot tub and pool. The "way back" boasts an unusual waterfall pond area. Some ponds are dug out holes full of fish. Jim says this one goes into a reservoir under some rocks and gets recirculated.
The up to date faucet at the kitchen sink is special to Lynn because it's a gift from her husband Jim McClary (Jr.) and she says it "just does everything!" The couple's formal living room has two main uses: first when they host their Wine and Supper Club and second when their youngest entertains at her Tea Parties and serves goldfish and lemonade.
The front of Jaime and Terry Moore's house, accented by two three tiered fountains, faces the pond by Little Monticello which the Moore's and the Hayes' share. It's inhabited with mallards which are hand fed every day. The island in the middle has been electrified and a gazebo constructed. There's a paddle boat for perusing the waterway.
Cori and Seth Woolwine have several unique art pieces. These include two carved oriental chests, and a unique shadow box Seth made for his wife to display her favorite pictures. The couple also has original work of one artist showing an interesting array of subjects from detailed formal portraits to colorful abstracts.
To see for yourself what these homes are all about and get more than "tidbits" for this excellent cause, either go to www.scrumptioussummerville.com or contact Bob Ingram at the Children's Center: 843-875-1551.

The win clinched the Hatters a berth in next weekend's Atlantic Sun Conference Championship in Jacksonville. After a long trip to Washington, Stetson got out to a slow start on the field, falling behind 4-1 after eight minutes of action. Howard's Cynthia Smalls scored three goals in that span to get the Bison out to a strong start. Sophomore Samantha Akl, who scored the lone early goal for the Hatters, came back with two more to ignite a Stetson rally midway through the first half. A pair of unassisted scores by freshman Danielle Horgan gave the Hatters their first lead of the game, at 5-4, with 9:22 to play in the first. Freshman Maylis Broderick ended the period by scoring a goal and assisting on another. The midfielder's pass to Akl with less than a minute remaining led to the latter's fourth goal, and gave Stetson a 7-4 advantage at the break. Stetson extended its run to nine straight scores by putting three in the back of the net to open the second frame. Freshmen Paige Levesque, Noelle Morabito, and Mary Kate O'Sullivan each scored to give the Hatters a commanding 10-4 lead with 21:07 to play. After Smalls scored her fourth goal to cut it to 10-5, O'Sullivan on another Levesque goal, and then scored one for herself to give Stetson a 12-5 lead with 15:35 to play. It was then that a weather delay halted the game. Returning to action, the Hatters didn't lose momentum, as sophomore Elisabeth Blackwell scored her first goal of the season just over 30 seconds into play. O'Sullivan put another one in the back of the net off of an assist by freshman Danielle Horgan to give the Hatters a nine goal advantage. Howard outscored Stetson 8-4 for the rest of the contest, but it was too late. The Hatters cruised to the 18-13 victory thanks to two goals from O'Sullivan, and one each from Levesque and Horgan during the final six minutes of play. O'Sullivan led the Hatters with five goals and two assists in the victory. Akl added four goals and three assists, while Horgan and Levesque chipped in with three scores apiece. Broderick and freshman Hallie Plunkett led Stetson with four ground balls, and Broderick added four caused turnovers. Freshman Caili Guilday played all 60 minutes in goal, earning her second win of the season after recording eight saves. Howard's Candace Ross also played the whole game, making an identical eight saves in the loss. Stetson will now prepare for next weekend's Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament. The Hatters will await the announcement of their opponent in the semifinals after Sunday's regular season finales take place. The semifinals take place on Friday, April 26 in Jacksonville, Fla. UPDATE: Stetson has clinched at least the three seed in the tournament, and will face Detroit in the semifinals at 3:30 p.m.Print Friendly Version More Headlines


text: Softball Splits With UNF on Wednesday April 18, 2013 Meredith Owen picked up her fourth straight win in the circle and Jordan Cleghorn hit her second home run of the season as Stetson won game two of an Atlantic Sun Conference doubleheader 6-2 over visiting UNF Wednesday evening at Patricia Wilson Field. The Hatters (25-18, 8-11 A-Sun) earned a split on the day after the Ospreys (34-12, 12-5 A-Sun) took game one 8-0. Cleghorn finished the day with three hits, while Jessica Griffin went 2-for-3 with two RBI in game two. "I think we were a lot more passive in the first game, we were watching too many strikes go by," (Jessica) Griffin said. "We went up there hacking in the second game and it resulted in a lot more hits." Griffin delivered the key hit early in game two, driving in Cleghorn and Brittany Hawn with a two-out, two-run double through the left side of the infield in the bottom of the third inning. "I had been seeing the outside pitch and I kept letting it go," Griffin said. "I finally decided I had to swing the bat and it resulted in two RBIs." The Hatters added two more unearned runs to take a 4-0 lead after three innings of play. UNF got one of the runs back in the top of the fourth inning on Mariah Reynolds' second home run of the day. With the lead cut to 4-1, Cleghorn provided some insurance with a two-run shot to left in the bottom of the sixth. Owen made the lead hold up, striking out Reynolds with two runners on base to end the ball game. "Her composure on the hill is just ridiculous," Griffin said about her battery mate. "She always knows she can get the next out." Owen threw an incredible 93 strikes over 125 pitches and struck out 10 without walking a batter. She allowed just one earned run on seven hits to improve her record to 16-7 on the season. Kaylie Wallace tossed a two-hit shutout in game one to lead UNF. Reynolds and Ashley Holton each homered for the Ospreys. Taylor Cochran threw 2.1 hitless innings of relief for Stetson. With the rest of the conference idle on Wednesday, the Hatters missed an opportunity to gain ground in the A-Sun standings. Stetson still trails Mercer by one game and Kennesaw State by two games in the race for the sixth and final A-Sun tournament spot. The Hatters will host ETSU for a three-game series beginning Saturday at 1 p.m. Seniors Chelsea Whalley and Jordan Cleghorn will be honored before the doubleheader. Notes: Stetson has hit 35 home runs this season, just five shy of the school record (40, 2004) ... Meredith Owen has struck out 29 batters in her last four starts, including two games with double digit strikeouts ... Stetson is 18-2 when scoring five runs or more.Print Friendly Version More Headlines

Magazine lists 27 locals among La.'s best doctors
Published: Thursday, December 6, 2012 at 7:45 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, December 6, 2012 at 7:45 p.m.
Twenty-seven doctors from the Houma-Thibodaux area made Louisiana Life's 2012 Best Doctors in Louisiana list.
Louisiana Life's 2012 Best Doctors
Local doctors on the list:
-- Dr. Richard Abben, Terrebonne General Medical Center.
-- Dr. Jorge J. Bravo, Thibodaux Regional Medical Center.
-- Dr. Richard Louis Brooke, Leonard J. Chabert Medical Center Pediatric Clinic.
-- Dr. James Vance Broussard, Southern ENT Associates.

-- Dr. Gregory Dobard, Thibodaux Regional Medical Center.
-- Dr. Adela Pratt Dupont, Leonard J. Chabert Medical Center Pediatric Clinic.
-- Dr. James K. Ellis, Cancer Center of Thibodaux Regional Medical Center.
-- Dr. Mary Louise Eschete, Leonard J. Chabert Medical Center Special Care Clinic.

-- Dr. Douglas B. Harris, Family Doctor Clinic.
-- Dr. Neil James Maki, Thibodaux Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Clinic.
-- Dr. Charles J. Monier Jr., Digestive Health Center.
-- Dr. Bedford Nieves-Cruz, Terrebonne General Medical Center.
-- Dr. Henry M. Peltier, Center For Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine.

-- Dr. Chester Frank Weimer, Thibodaux Urological Specialists.
-- Dr. Guy Paul Zeringue Jr., Southern ENT Associates.
-- Dr. Guy Paul Zeringue III, Southern ENT Associates.
They include a range of doctors from private practices and public hospitals in Houma and Thibodaux.
Editor-in-Chief Errol Laborde said the list, published in the magazine's November-December issue, is compiled by a private company called Best Doctors. The company ranks doctors by polling local physicians about who they'd recommend to their friends and family who need care, Laborde said.
The list includes 1,049 Louisiana doctors in 79 specialties.
"We take it very seriously when presenting this list of doctors," Laborde said, adding a local physician checks over the list before it's published.
Dr. Shaminder Gupta is section chief for nephrology and associate program director for internal medicine education at Leonard J. Chabert Medical Center in Houma. He said he is proud to earn a place on the list alongside four other doctors at his public charity hospital. He has worked at Chabert for eight years.
"It really speaks highly of our hospital," Gupta said. "People choose to come to our hospital because they're getting good care. And to have a number of doctors on the list is a good indicator of that."
Gupta, who lives in New Orleans, said he chooses to drive to Houma each day for work because he loves having a job where he can train new doctors and care for patients.
"You should love what you do, and at Chabert I have a chance to do that every day," he said. "I love education and teaching, training the next generation of doctors. And in Terrebonne Parish, I get to see all kinds of patients from all different backgrounds. It's an opportunity to impact them directly."
Greg Stock, CEO of Thibodaux Regional Medical Center, said having recognized doctors on staff is important to a hospital's mission of providing high-quality health care. Six staff doctors from the hospital were recognized.
Stock said he looks for doctors who are well-trained in their field and clinically competent with good interpersonal skills and the ability to communicate with patients and their caretakers.
Interpersonal skills are especially important in today's health care world, Stock said, because patients are looking for doctors who will spend time with them and answer their questions in a way they can understand.
Dr. Allen Vander, a kidney doctor who has worked nine years at Thibodaux Regional, is a local doctor recognized with the award.
Growing up in the small town of Sulphur outside of Lake Charles, Vander said he was inspired to be a physician by the family doctors who worked in his town.
"Today when you break your leg you go see an orthopedic specialist," Vander said. "But back then you saw your family doctor. They had to do everything and be everything. Seeing how they handled caring for people inspired me to pursue a career where I could help people in that regard."
Working in Thibodaux can still present a doctor with challenging cases, Vander added. In the past, he treated a patient with rare kidney stones that required treatment at the Mayo Clinic.
"It was an interesting case," Vander said. "To have someone walk through my office with a disease so unusual that it happens to only one in 100,000 people — you wouldn't expect it in a small town."
Vander added that it's nice to be recognized by his peers, but the best thanks comes in the form of thank-you notes from patients.
"We have a nice community here," Vander said. "Getting a note that says 'Thank you for taking care of my family' is better than anything else."
