>Gay people are persecuted just as much in Christian countries as in muslim countries, just not in our Christian countries in the West because we're that much more progressive. Ex-soviet regions like Serbia, Georgia, Lithuania, and Russia itself, as well as many African nations and some Central and South American nations that are Christian treat gay people just as poorly.
Just a correction - Serbia is not and was not part of any soviet regimes. Serbia, or more precise
Staling attempted to assassinate Tito 6 times and failed.
Yugoslavian countries freed themselves (yugoslav partisans), without any help of USSR (or anybody else), from the nazi occupation.
Tito's funeral was the largest state funeral ever. From wikipedia:
"Based on the number of attending politicians and state delegations, it is still regarded as the largest state funeral in history.[2] They included four kings, 31 presidents, six princes, 22 prime ministers and 47 ministers of foreign affairs. They came from both sides of the Cold War, from 128 different countries out of 154 UNO members at the time.[3]"
I know it's offtopic, it just bothers the hell out of me when people say that Serbia was part of USSR
Regarding how gays are treated in Serbia... not very well. But they are not very well treated anywhere in Europe in reality. Go hold hands with a dude in some parts of London or Paris after 9 pm if you want to test the theory. There is a conflict between gay people and zealot football fans in Serbia, and it happens every time gay people start showing themselves off, but in no way reflects what majority of those Christians you mentioned think.
So if you want to be throwing your *opinions* out there, at least don't make factual errors like this and ACTUALLY read about the things that you're writing about. You obviously have no idea how they treat gay people in Serbia, you don't know anything about Serbia except the propaganda material you heard out-of-context, which leads me to believe you have no idea about Russia or any other countries you mentioned... again.. just what your overlords brainwashed you into *believing*, apparently. You are no better than those Christian fundamentalists you're talking about. They have been brainwashed too.
"Tesla has responded to a recent report from a Model X owner claiming their vehicle suddenly accelerated at "maximum speed" by itself, jumped a curb and slammed into the side of a building while his _wife_ was sitting behind the wheel"
Wife. Enough said.

> Does anyone around here remember DRIVING those carbureted, non-computer cars?
Maybe your American cars had breaks failing and stuff like that, us in Europe... well, I drive a car since before I got my licence. Started at 12, never got any of these things you mentioned, nor did anybody else.
I NEVER heard of anybody having their breaks fail (they gradually loose effectiveness, until you fix them). Engine cutting off ? Sure... if something (electrical component usually) fails at the time you're driving - again, not a problem if you're maintaining your car. Happened 2 to me in 15 years of driving a car. Not a big deal.
And I'm talking about 15 year old car.. that's how my car was old when I started driving it.
Thing was, 20 years ago, you could fix your car yourself for minor problems, now when you open the hud... you can just stare at it.
I myself don't want my freaking car connected to internet or being "smart" in any way. I'm smart enough for it.
... are extinct. People I know that still have watches, most of them have watches as a fashion statement. It's a jewelry.
Other groups I'm aware of are old people who need glasses to see their phone screen, and "some" rich people to show off. Who the f needs a $1000+ USD watch ? Never mind $5k+.
Eventually they gonna disappear all together same as pocket watches did.
It's called evolution. Either you keep with the times or eventually you loose your business and get forgotten.
well, god save us from developers that cannot figure out virtualbox at first go.
> I'm not a big fan of government coercion as the solution to everything, but vaccinations are a public health issue where you are affecting more than yourself whenever you sneeze.
How ? Aren't you vaccinated ? If you're vaccinated against flu, and then 5 days later I get the flu and I'm not vaccinated... you still gonna get sick if I sneeze ?
If we throw that argument out of the window, why on earth would you accept governments forcing people into this ? If I consciously decide not to vaccinate myself and my children, what does that have to do with you ? You're already vaccinated, how can I threaten you ?
> I have all ready arranged an explanation for you guys when Russia shows lower rates of disease X and scientists proclaim the "Russia Paradox":
Of course. Because you Americans are all smart, all powerful and always right. No propaganda in your _free_, _democratic_ country. No corruption in your country, you legalized it. You don't kill and commit genocide while you wage war, only Russia and those other "non-friendly" countries do. You are morally superior to everybody, and you're better than everybody !! Right ?? C'mon now, don't pretend you don't think like that.
Fuck your science. It's fueled by money and as long as it is "corrupted" like that, I don't want it to be anywhere near me
One thing is sure. I'll never come close to your country. Really wanted when I was young, but the older I am.. I'm seeing that you people are seriously disconnected from reality and well, just plain nuts. You people are nuts. Thank god there are countries in this world that don't give a shit about what you think and your laws, so I, and other sane citizens of this planet can go. Yes, Russia is saner than you ever will be.
So once more, fuck you, your country, it's laws, three letter agencies, monsanto, militarized police, propaganda machine that's too big to comprehend (everytihng on you tv, hollywood included), politician sociopaths war criminals (every single one of them) I hope you have a FAT life. As I'm sure you will.
Stuff those chemically laced and fake rotten food up in your arrogant know-it-all-all-righteous mouth !
Because it's easy to install and maintain, it has millions of free templates and plugins and it's highly flexible.
Because small startups cannot AFFORD a custom coded CMS, themes, plugins or TRAINING.
Small startups/businesses in my experience are majority of wordpress users and their money is better spent on marketing, paychecks, and everything else that's needed to get the project off the ground.
I can literally set you up with a site and a ecommerce system in 20 minutes for FREE - that's why. The site that will be functional and professional looking.
The guy I work for now is doing sales of his own brand product. All his sites are in wordpress including the shop site. All of these were made by "clueless" people (in terms of IT knowledge) and he's doing $35k USD a month in sales after 1 year of doing it.
It's a small startup, and if wordpress didn't exist - his business wouldn't exist and salaries for 4 people wouldn't exist.
Wordpress has pretty good support as well. Updates are released often, and on dashboard you get notified of those updates - after which you do 2 clicks - done. Up2date, vulnerability gone. If they don't fix known bug, cool - hire somebody to fix it for you.
I know slashdot people like to shit on wordpress, PHP etc., but hundreds of thousands of businesses are on internet because of wordpress. It's a great CMS.
Internet is not only geek's playground anymore. Common people are on it now and are running their own internet business thanks to wordpress/joomla, facebook apple and the likes. But I also know average slashdot nerd don't care or understand much about how things work outside of what he does for a living.
Whatever people invent some other people are gonna try to exploit it, and in some cases they will succeed.
To successfully prevent people murdering other people you need to treat the cause of that intent. Or at least start thinking about it instead of just forcing another dumb law or trying to put a camera in the cockpit, remote control
In 20 years there will be so many laws and regulations it will be impossible to live.
What's up with people and these retarded knee-jerk reactions ? And you got even modded insightful. This was obviously premeditated. You don't think the guy would be capable of doing the same thing if a clueless flight attendant was there while pilot is taking a leak ? A guy capable of killing himself and 150 other people like this is perfectly capable of knocking the flight attendants lights out before locking the door, and if he really intended to crash the plane... he would indeed punch her/him out first.
Second thing... there's what.. 100k flights per day for the last 10 years ? That's like 360000000 flights. For one freak occurrence you should not introduce new laws and regulations and shit. That's exactly what happened on 9/11
And finally, comment on your post title (This validates the US policy). -- The US has some of the stupidest policies ever. They are like everything else - fake.
On the surface (or on the paper) they look cool and effective, in real life they're just a shallow cover or a front for taking away your freedom and controlling your life.
I hope Europeans will actually think how they gonna deal with this instead of doing what Americans are doing. Perhaps incorporate emergency biometric scanner or something like that on the door that can override the "unlock" option ? There are dozens of better systems than
You know who's to blame ? Common people (includes slashdot). When some of us were seeing this coming 10-15 years ago.. we were branded as lunatics. Now.... I'm so glad this is happening.
That's for being too blind(or more probable - dumb) to see it before it happened. And guess what ? It's gonna get worse. They gonna teach your kids through movies, music, mainstream media, *tube thingies to like living in a police state were no rights exist.. only (couple of) privileges.
Of course it's not a good thing. But as I see it... only people that worry more about "looks" (some people like blue eyes, especially in asia) will bypass thousands and thousands of years of evolution in favor of "looking good", and nature has a way of dealing with stupidity.
As in certain cults it is possible to kill a process if you know its true name. -- Ken Thompson and Dennis M. Ritchie

Great surroundings that helped make our trip a success!Our recent stay at the Gaylord Texan was outstanding. We were greeted by courteous staff members and assisted throughout our stay graciously. Having the confidence of a quality hotel added to the enjoyment of our trip to Texas. Not only were the accomondations fabulous but the variety of interests close by was a plus for our family members to enjoy time doing what they liked best. We will be choosing this hotel again and again!Rating:3
OVERRATEDThis hotel is so overrated,over priced, and has hidden costs. The rooms are so ordinary for the amount that you will pay to stay there. The rooms are a little better than a low budget hotel. The atrium area is really nice but you can only spend so much time there before going back to your room. Then they add a $17 resort fee daily too, and on top of that the parking is $15 to $26 a day. For the price of everything Ill never go back.Rating:3
Uncomfortable bedsFor what you pay to stay at the hotel I would not recomend it for comfort of sleep. Its a great view for what you see but not a comfy bed at all. You can get a better softer bed at other hotels and pay 1/2 what you pay here.Rating:5
great placelots to do
Travelers tip on nightlifegreat on site night club overlooking lakeRating:2
Many Hidden ChargesService was bad, long lines at check in and check out, many hidden charges, extra for parking, extra resort fee, valet parking 30 dollars and close to hotel, self parking $15 and a long way from hotel, i am warning my friends to go elsewhereRating:5
More than we expectedWe celebrated my daughters birthday by staying at this resort and spa and the staff certainly went out of their way to make our celebration special. The atrium delighted us with each stroll as did the theme furnishings. We cant wait for the next occasion to celebrate.
Travelers tip on diningAfter viewing the riverwalk restaurant online, wed plan to eat there, but it was closed. We ate instead at Ama Lur and were so glad the other wasnt open--excellent! And the chef came out to wish Happy Birthday to my daughter and accept our compliments.Rating:3
Terrible serviceThis hotel has all the makings of being good. The service was lacking I felt like a number to them and they made me wait repeatedly for minor mundane things that should have been taken care of immedietelyRating:5
Good and CleanLots of activitiesRating:5
Will definitely go backThis was our first trip to Dallas and we are very happy we have chosen the Gaylord Texan. We almost didnt have to leave the hotel, everything you need is on the premises. Our room was facing Lake Grapevine and was very comfortable. We Highly recommend this resort.Rating:5
Beautiful PlaceBeautiful resort,kind and helpful stuff. Interesting design and powerful A/C...Rating:4
Nice placeWe had a nice time. It is different going to a hotel as the destination instead of a destination and then just staying at a hotel. The room was large and confortable but only on the second floor facing the parking lot. The better rooms are facing the atrium. I thought the "package" we booked included the breakfast but at check in was told that that package is only sold by the hotel and breakfast was not included. We did ad a the "Taste of Texas" and had an appetizer and drink at four of the restaurants and that was a nice was to get a feel for the different menus.Rating:4
nice but wouldnt hurry backThis is a fine, comfortable hotel near the Dallas Airport. Room was not ready for check in and we had to wait about an hour to get a room. Overall hotel was very comfortable, clean, staff was very helpful. The only negative was the food. It was not very good and very over pricedRating:4
Fun place for familiesFun place to take kids in the summer. Dive in movies, Friday fireworks and changing strolling entertainers made for a fun visit.Rating:5
The Perfect GetawayLove the atrium, the riverwalk, and never having to leave the complex for anything! Truly relaxing!
Travelers tip on diningVery good restaurants! Old Hickory is exceptional!Rating:5
Wonderful GetawayThe Texas view was spectacular looking over Grapevine Lake. We had requested a great view and we got it! We felt like the hotel listened to what we wanted and gave it to us. Atrium is wonderful to walk around and enjoy the waterfalls and foliage. Cafes and restaurants aplenty for refreshments as you stroll around or sit on one of the many park benches.
Travelers tipToo expensive to take the kids. More of an adult getaway. Outside pool was very crowded in month of May. Much more of an adult atmosphere with alcohol being consumed.Rating:5
Will be going backThis was an extremely, and very interesting hotel experience. The hotel was very clean, well stocked, friendly. Close to Grapevine Mills mall. Lots to do at night if nothing more than walking around and enjoying the scenery within the hotel.Rating:3
very needed get away with the wifeweekend was so much fun, the room was clean the club was a blast, the only thing I would change is the comfort of the bed, not much rest alittle uncomfortable.Rating:4
Overall very nice hotelThis hotel is very nice!! It is great for the business conventions since you would stay at the hotel most of the time. Unfortunately I came for pleasure. Thinking that this hotel was between Fort Worth and Dallas it would be easy to visit both. Unfortunately there is no public transportation that is convenient to travel to these cities. If you want to take the hotel transportation it is more expensive. It would probably be more worth it to rent a car for a day or two than pay for the hotel transportation. Another downside is they dont have free parking for hotel visitors. The hotel overall is really nice.Rating:4
Would love to go back.You could spend all day just in the hotel. The setup during the holidays was awsome. They really go all out during that time of year. The ice sculptures were also amazing. Good location and downtown area was interesting. We only stayed for 3 days and we needed 5 days to see everything and truly enjoy the resort. If we go back and its only for 3 days we would probably stay somewhere else. The hotel did try to charge me for both valet and regular parking so be sure and check your bill. Also valet parking was nice, but $25 a day was a bit expensive.
Travelers tip on shoppingThe grapevine mall was exciting, at least for my wife it was.Rating:5
Wonderful Hotel!We were in the Dallas area only for a few days and a friend recommended the Gaylord. My family was very impressed,both our children loved the atrium and all the shops and restuarants under the glass roof. It is a smaller version of the Opryland Hotel in Nashville. We had great service and our room was very clean and comfortable. It was a great bargin we paid a 3 star price for a 5 star hotel. It was one of the highlight of our holiday trip. The restaurants in the hotel were pricey and not geared towards small children. The hotel staff gaves us great recommendations very close to the hotel. The Grapevine mall was a few minutes from the hotel and gave us lots of entertainment options that were geared towards families with children.Rating:1
DisappointedWe stayed for a Christmas shopping trip. Did not have the resort feel. Felt like cows being herded around the place. Took one hour to get from the highway to the front of hotel. No parking available as hotel guest. Their response was "yeah, its bad." Very disappointed with the quality of the stay versus what we paid. Would have rather stayed home.
Travelers tip on getting the most out of your stayBeautiful hotel, but stay not enjoyed by the quality of the hotel. I complained, but all I heard was "we know."Rating:4
Beautiful hotelWould recommend to anyone wanting to experience a warm, friendly Texas stay.Rating:5
Cant wait to go backThis was our first trip to the Gaylord Texan Resort for a romantic getaway. Our room had a balcony on the 9th floor with a great view of the nearby lake. The staff was friendly and helpful when my wife and I had questions. There are many places to sit down with a nice drink and have good conversation with people and the outdoor fireplaces provided a nice treat for the cool nights. We will be going back during the Christmas Holidays with the kids.Rating:4
A very nice place, lots of things to do.I think they should not charge for parking your car, the hotel has more than enough space and they are already charging a $ 15 dollar fee for other things like Internet, the newspaper, etc.

Gary Allegretto
Recently under consideration for two Grammy Awards, Gary Allegretto is "One of the classiest acts in the music business today, working only with the best backup musicians and taking the time to craft music noted not only for its quality but for its authenticity..." BLUES REVUE MAGAZINE
"Gary Allegretto is one of the classiest acts in the music business today, working only with the best backup musicians and taking the time to craft music noted not only for its quality but for its authenticity, ...Intimately honest, and what's best about his genuineness is its completely offhand quality. If someone complains to you that they don't make "real" blues records anymore - albums that sound like lost classics yet retain the freshness of an individual - play (Gary's new CD) Many Shades of Blue for them."
-Robert Fontenot, Blues Revue, June/July 2008
~ Gary has been honored with a prestigious 2011 "Keeping the Blues Alive (KBA) Award" by the Blues Foundation!
~ Gary has been honored with the 2010 Artists for a Better World "Spirit of Youth" Award!
~On Sept 10, 2010 Allegretto will be contributing his services to set a GUINESS WORLD RECORD for largest music ensemble ~ by teaching 10,000 to play the Blues on harmonica in Houston's Minute Maid Ballpark during an Astros/Dodgers game!!!
~ Allegretto's song "Four Day's Late" (written for the victims of the Katrina disaster and recorded in New Orleans with Ivan Neville and featuring Janiva Magness) has WON FIRST PLACE in Alternate Root Magazine's "Songs for Social Change" contest beating all other entries by 20%! The contest had over 500 submissions for songs.
(See more rave reviews from prominent press outlets and musicians under "Discography" below)
A down-to-earth guy with lifelong wanderlust and more than a few stories to tell, Gary Allegretto's resume reads like a men's adventure wish-list: back-country forest ranger, forest firefighter on a "Hotshot" crew, LA city firefighter, bouncer in a couple rough honky-tonks and a Blues bar, cowboy and ranch hand, beach lifeguard, white-water rafting guide… and traveling Bluesman. He's also the founding director of Harmonikids, an organization that gives music therapy with harmonicas to special needs kids worldwide. Through it all, Gary can barely remember a time when Blues weren't a powerful part of his life, and playing harmonica wasn't as natural as his own voice. He started playing upon receiving his first harp at age 5 from his woodsman grandfather. Soon after, while attending a cultural festival he carelessly wandered away from his family… and into a Big Walter Horton performance. As the loudspeakers blared something about a lost child, he knew he'd found his calling… and he followed.
Down the road, the self-taught Allegretto has performed on stages worldwide and his music has been featured on film and television. He recently scored music for the Johnny Depp film "Rum Diaries". His songs can be found on the soundtrack of the national PBS television program "Roadtrip Nation". Gary was recently filmed and interviewed for the harmonica documentary film "Pocket Full Of Soul" (see www.pocketfullofsoulmovie.com). He has performed nationally & internationally either acoustically or with his all-star electric back-up band. His captivating performances never fail to catch the intrigue of his audiences, often including and prominent musicians and occasionally celebrities. He has received awards for his harmonica playing and is endorsed by Hohner, the world's top harmonica manufacturer.
Renowned for his songwriting, riveting performances, and versatile technique, Allegretto has earned respect as Bluesman on thousands of stages worldwide. In addition, he has taught harmonica in prestigious workshops including the "Cruisin' For A Bluesin'" Blues Cruise 2010, Augusta Heritage Center's Blues Week, Telluride Blues Camp, Riverfront Blues Festival, California Traditional Music Society's Folk Festival, & John Gindick's Harmonica Jam Camp, the Folk Alliance Conference and Stax Music Academy in Memphis. He is supported as a Blues educator by the Blues Foundation's "Blues in The Schools" program, and was invited to teach students in Memphis area schools as part of the 2008 International Blues Challenge. In addition to his captivating performances, Allegretto offers concert promoters the unique option and opportunity to provide entertaining harmonica workshops at their venues. Gary's workshops include new harmonicas & lessons for folks of all ages and ability levels ~ a rare opportunity to learn from a professional.
Of special note, Gary is also renowned for his humanitarian work as the founder and director of Harmonikids which is a 501(c)3 non profit charitable organization that provides music therapy with harmonicas and lessons to special needs children internationally. Allegretto has provided aid to thousands of children from the Tsunami refugee camps of North Sumatra, Indonesia, to the Katrina evacuee trailer villages of Louisiana, to earthquake ravaged Port Au Prince, Haiti and many points in between. Harmonikids has recieved widespread acclaim in the media including The Today Show, Blues Revue, and Living Blues Magaz
Four Days Late
Written By: Gary Allegretto (copyright '08)
Commanders of arrogance, we've all seen what you've done.
They needed food and water, you sent men with guns.
Four days late, you sent men with guns.
Four days late.
Y'all made them out to be wicked in your blame the victim scheme.
Just tryin' to feed their babies in a flooded New Orleans.
While you twisted the story to suit your lying machine.
Four date late.
Some said it was cause they's poor. Some said it was cause they's black.
I say its just the heart and soul y'all lack.
Nothing in it for you and you just turn your back.
Four days late.
I know these little children will remember everything they saw.
Unfeeling men that turned their backs on them all.
A government that proved they feel no higher call.
Four days late.
When it was all said and done, it's what you said but did not do.
And the cowardly way y'all pointed away from you.
Then just like the sun, the truth came shining through.
Four days late.
Responsibility to our people means protection of our poor.
You sold them fear and lies that sent their children off to fight your war,
While in their hour of need you couldn't be accounted for.
Four days late, four days late.
She Speaks to Me
Written By: Allegretto (copyright '08)
Everywhere I go I take my a shiny little friend
You know she's always there for me
She picks me up when I'm feeling low
And she lets my soul run free
She just speaks to me
Yeah she speaks to me
I feel my soul run free when my baby just speaks to me
When this world leaves me weak and confused
She makes me feel like a powerful man
Lord it makes me happy when I'm singing the Blues
And I got her in the palm of my hand
And then she speaks to me
Yeah she speaks to me
I feel my soul run free when my baby just speaks to me
Anytime I'm feeling down and out
When I'm feeling deep down in a hole
All I got to hear is the tone of her voice
And it resurrects my soul
She just speaks to me
Yeah she speaks to me
I feel my soul run free when my baby just speaks to me
You know I ain't gotta say a thing
There ain't nothing that I got to prove
'Cause I know she can bring the whole house down
And I don't even have to move
I let her speak for me
Yeah she speaks for me
Most talk is cheap but her voice runs deep when she speaks for me
Written By: Allegretto (copyright '08)
First started to rambling' when I was just 15 tears old
Packed up my duffle & pointed my thumb on down the road
And it was a decision I've never come to regret
That first time I left home and thumbed west to Somerset
Papa said under my roof you gotta do what I say
So I just kissed my mamma and left that same day
And it might have been foolish, but my young heart was set
To strike out on my own and thumb west to Somerset
Wrote my destination on a cardboard sign
Packed up my dreams and left my worries behind
And it was a feeling I guess I'll never forget
To be free and on my own, thumbing west to Somerset
Didn't have no money, but I was young and I was free
Found out that the road was gonna be my destiny
And having freedom makes life as good as it can get
That's what I learned from the road, thumbing west to Somerset
Got a ride with a lady, said her husband wouldn't approve
Imagine my surprise when she stopped the car & made her move
But she was pretty, prettier'n anyone I'd ever met
And she gave me the ride of my life, just off the road to Somerset
Sky drew dark and a thundercloud rolled
Wind cut my stride and the air got mighty cold
But I kept on walking even though my clothes were soaking wet
Just walking in the pouring rain, thumbing west to Somerset
When I get to thinking now about all them places that I've been
It always takes me back to where it all began
But I didn't know then how far away a man could get
When I started down that road, thumbing west to Somerset
(Alt. second half of verse 2 or 3):
And if he was calling my bluff, he done lost the bet
Cause when he dropped me at the turnpike I started west to Somerset
Never The Same
Written By: Allegretto (copyright '08)
Long ago and far away
As a child I heard my grandpa Fiore play.
'Said I head my grandpa play.
Long ago and very far away
As a child I heard my grandpa Fiore play.
And I knew my world wasn't ever gonna be the same.
Later on in my young life
I heard John Jackson play the blues with a pocketknife.
'Said with a pocket knife
(Repeat lines 1&2)
And I knew my world wasn't ever gonna be the same.
Far away and long ago
As a child I heard the great Big Walter blow.
'Said I heard Big Walter blow.
(Repeat lines 1&2)
And I knew my world wasn't ever gonna be the same.
A young boy sittin' barefoot in a country meadow
Heard the high lonesome sound of Bill Monroe.
'Said I heard Bill Monroe.
(Repeat lines 1&2)
And I knew my world wasn't ever gonna be the same.
These were the blessings of my youth
When I learned that there were many shades of blue.
'Said many shades of blue
(Repeat lines 1&2)
I knew that I wasn't ever gonna be the same.
Tattoo of Truth
Written By: Allegretto (copyright '08)
I met a gal some time ago that could not tell the truth.
She thought she could redeem herself with a personal tattoo.
So she sat and thought long and hard 'til it became quite clear.
Truth would follow her around if she tattooed it on her rear.
She'd tried the self-help books, she tried the yoga retreats.
Had her astrological charts done, gave up eating dairy and meat.
In the school of new-age enlightenment, she was first in her class.
So she was sure her search for truth would end there on her ...
Lord knows she was pretty, like a big-time movie star.
Had a mansion down in Hollywood, dove a fancy foreign car.
But my mamma always told me "son, you cannot purchase class."
So I knew she would not own the truth, if she engraved it on her ...
When she finally had it done she was as proud as she could be.
She left the tattoo parlor, and came looking straight for me.
And she was cryin' "Halleluiah, I can see the truth at last!"
But the truth was that she couldn't, 'cause it was back there on her ...
She still told lies that were big and fat, and some that were small.
She lied to me about things that mattered, some that didn't at all.
She lied about the future, and lied lots about her past.
She simply, couldn't tell the truth, even when it as tattooed on her ass.
The tail end of this relationship left me sad and blue.
But you cannot stay with a woman who finds the truth in a tattoo.
And when she offered me a goodbye kiss I just said "Baby, …aw shucks…
Truth is I prefer you plant those lyin' lips on the cheek…of my buttocks."
Hurry Down Rounder
Written By: Allegretto (copyright '08)
Getting late on in the evening, and the moon is smiling down.
That's when a lonesome cowboy, makes his way to town.
(Chorus): Hurry down now rounder, don't you take too long.
If you get to town late, pretty ones will be gone.
I can hear that ol' piano; I can taste the beer;
I can smell their perfume, all the way from here.
Better get yourself a haircut, better get yourself a shave,
If you wanna get yourself a lady, who likes to misbehave.
Got a pocket full of money, 'cause you just got paid.
With all of that money son, you might even get ….
Get yourself in a card game, if the stakes are right.
Get yourself some whiskey; don't get yourself in a fight
Red rooster in a hen house says, "Cockle doodle do."
Pretty lady in a red house says, "Any dude'll do."
Wish the doggone town wasn't so doggone far.
Better ride that pony fast as a shooting star.
Bad Man
Written By: Allegretto (copyright '08)
I'm a bad man, bad like Jesse James
Lord I'm a bad man, bad like Jesse James
I take anything that I wanna
I'm even proud to take the blame
Cornered me in Tehachapi, threw me in their dirty jail
Cornered me in Tehachapi, threw me in their dirty jail
But the sheriff's wife set me free, and made her husband pay my bail
See me comin' baby, you know you better run and hide
See me comin' baby, better get yourself inside
Cause if I get you in my saddle
We're going for a ride
Best not stand in my way boys; better let me have my fun
Best not stand in my way boys; better let me have my fun
Cause if you cause me any trouble
You'll be lookin' down the wrong end of my gun
I'm a bad man, bad like Billy the Kid
I'm a bad man, bad like Billy the Kid
And I don't need your forgiveness, for anything that I did
Settle Down Blues
Written By: Allegretto (copyright '08)
Ain't but two things make me nervous
'Bout the term "settle down"
Well that first word is settle
And that second one is down
Ain't about to settle
Got too much to lose
Don't wanna be down with
Those Settle Down Blues
On the day I was born
I knew the world was my pork chop
I just hit the ground a runnin'
And I never aim to stop
Yeah I'm still runnin'
Blame it all on my shoes
Gotta keep 'em movin
Running from the Settle Down Blues
Well my Grandma once told me
"See the world while you can,
You got plenty of time to be
An old married man."
I took her wisdom
To be the truth
And it's kept me far away
From the Settle Down Blues.
Well my friends have all been saying
Find a woman you can trust
Why don't you finally marry
And be miserable like us
You know the life you live
Ain't the one I choose
Don't try to sell me on
Your Settle Down Blues
Well don't assume I'm lonely
Cause I love my solitude
I can have me some company
Any old time I'm in the mood
Try not to worry bout me
Cause I ain't gonna worry 'bout you
When you're all alone
With your Settle Down Blues
Hey if you don't like my company
You can count on one hand
The number of minutes
'Fore I'm taking off again
Don't wear out welcomes
Don't get me confused
With the kind of man
Who gets them Settle Down Blues
You want me to have a 9 to 5
A mortgage and a wife
But who the hell are you to hand me
The directions to my life
That tie your wearing
To me would just be a noose
Death sentence by hangin'
From them Settle Down Blues
If money's all your living for
Be careful my friend
If you sell your soul for a dollar
You won't get it back again
You might get wealthy
But brother you'll pay your dues
Trading your freedom in
For them Settle Down Blues
When I'm out on the road
I'm as happy as a clam
You ain't never gonna hear me
'pologize for who I am
Call me a dreamer
Call me any damn thing you choose
Call me when your feelin' low
With them Settle Down Blues
There's a high price for freedom
But I'm proud to pay the cost
Not everyone that wanders
Wanders 'cause they're lost
I'll go my own way,
Down any old road I choose
I'm traveling far away
From those Settle Down Blues
Risk of Love
Written By: Allegretto (copyright '08)
Baby it's a joy to have you back in my life
But in my heart you know you never left.
Believe me when I say
That I've loved you since the day
That our eyes met.
I give you my heart, please take it.
Let's share our love, and not forsake it
If we follow the truth we'll make it
Through the risk of love.
I thought I'd never fall in love again.
I swore my poor heart was through.
But in the dark of the night
I found a powerful light
While I was chasing the moon with you.
Love songs have caught my ear again.
I'm having dreams of desire and romance.
My heart is reeling
With that vulnerable feeling
Like when you ask your first love to the dance.
We've been friends such a long time.
It's a privilege to see how you've grown.
Let's walk hand in hand
From where the waves hit the sand
To destinations unknown.
Many years I've run through the gauntlet
To prove my love is true.
I still fear no opponent
But my heart aches every moment
That I have to fight you for you.
So drop in baby, ride this wave with me
And don't be afraid to fall.
'Cause life is too short
To live in caution
And too long to not live at all.
Saddle My Pony
Written By: Allegretto (copyright '08)
I was born to ramble, I was born to roam
Never had a place to call my own
(CHORUS) Saddle up and go, yeah go
Saddle my pony I believe I'm gonna hit the road
This big city's been closin' in
Baby just look at the shape I'm in
Pack my duffle in the middle of the night
When things get heavy I'm travelin' light
See me coming baby better run and hide
If I get you in my saddle we're going for a ride
Baby I'll drink from your loving cup
But when you tell me settle down, I wanna saddle up
Out with a woman, having some fun
In walked a man with a great big gun
Got a gal in Memphis, one in Kalamazoo
One in Dodge City, one in East Saint Lou
Winslow, Barstow, Buffalo, Kokomo
Catalina, Pasadena, see what I mean
I gottta saddle my pony
Man, I gotta hit the road
Gary has released 3 critically acclaimed CD's. His most recent "Many Shades of Blue" debuted at the top of the Living Blues Radio Charts, also charting on the Roots Music Charts. Further, Allegretto recently enjoyed the honor of consideration for two Grammy Awards: Best Contemporary Blues Album and Best Traditional Folk Album. Here's some of what folks have said:
"That boy can really blow that harp!"
~ The Legendary Pinetop Perkins
"... I listened to (Many Shades of Blue) often for musical and spiritual pleasure. Gary's Blues tells stories of soul, wit, and humanity and I got to know him real well because he gives everything he is to his music. This is honest music crafted from inspiration, talent, and skills, delivered at a high level of accomplishment. I'm really impressed with the maturity, facility, and depth in Gary's harp playing. He could sure teach a lot of harp players about tone, phrasing, and getting the most expression out of a very expressive instrument. His songwriting, singing and arranging are very accomplished too. No wonder (Many Shades of Blue) is being well received... Gary's music made me feel good, and that's a very attractive quality."
~"Steady Rollin'" Bob Margolin, Renowned Bluesman, Muddy Waters Band Guitarist, and Blues Columnist
This superb album by the American singer and harmonica player is under consideration for a Grammy Award as Best Contemporary Blues Album. It is mostly self penned and several name players appear including Ivan Neville. The sound quality is brilliant, so warm it feels as if you're in the room with the band playing. You can truly appreciate the amazing empathy of the musicians who have obviously played together many times. This highlights a very special musical gift.
Allegretto has a rare and distinctive quality as a bandleader. The same gift that Miles Davis was noted for; that of being able to conduct, lead, draw together a band with just a slight gesture musical or physical, it seems almost telepathic as, after a chorus or two of ensemble playing, the harmonica just draws all of the musicians back to the main theme. The solos are economical, and the instrumental interplay is faultless. The harmonica playing is exemplary. Every track is good... a brilliant piece of work. Allegretto captures the feel and sound of John Lee Hooker's early Chess tracks and marries it to a new song. Most styles of city and country blues are explored and the album gets better with every listen.
~Vicky Martin, Blues Matters Magazine
"Full bodied with a sweet aftertaste... Some of these songs sound like instant classics and should be covered just as often as Muddy Waters. This album is a standout in the releases in the Blues markets." (BluesWax rating: 9 out of 10)
~ Kyle M. Palarino, BluesWax
" A warm, diverse outing... impressive... Allegretto is not only a fine harp player but an all around good guy too... Many Shades of Blue is just what the label says, many shades and all done well."
~Living Blues Magazine
"... Allegretto is one of the best harp players you'll hear. In an instant he can switch gears from smooth to sassy. The reeds jump at his command! Don't miss a rare opportunity to see and hear this fine blues veteran."
~ Rich Del Grosso, Blues Revue Magazine
"Allegretto's heady brew ranges from Piedmont style acoustic Blues to hard rockin' electric numbers. He has put together a stunning package that marks him as a compelling songwriter, a masterful harpist, and a strong singer. While his more famous friends make significant contributions to this project, it is Allegretto's vision that burns the brightest. It's hard to believe that he has not garnered more attention up to this point. This recording, which has received Grammy consideration, should finally get him the recognition he deserves. This one is highly recommended!!!"
~Mark Thompson, President of Crossroads Blues Society
"Gary Allegretto is a blues singer, songwriter, and harp virtuoso who does a good job covering many roots styles on his latest CD release Many Shades Of Blue. He includes tastes of swampy, greasy, and rocking flavors in both acoustic and electric formats and has the chops and the all-star backing band to make it all happen.
Special guests on the album include heavyweight champs like Ivan Neville, Janiva Magness, Doug Macleod, Rich Delgrosso and John Cephas and their appearances contribute to both Allegretto's music and his credibility in the blues scene. He has also lived quite a life and has many experiences from which to draw music from... these experiences populate Allegretto's original songs and elevate him over the many acts out there that continually re-work standards.
Allegretto's songs are authentic and individual at the same time, and... he's certainly a hot hand on the harmonica. It is a tough juggling act to remain true to one's inspirations while finding a unique musical voice, especially in roots sty
Set List
Set lists and songs depend on the venue. Allegretto and his versatile backing musicians are sensitive to the ambience needs of the venues they play. Venues range from festivals, bars, restaurants, conferences, fund raisers, to private parties. Their clientele have diverse needs which they can accommodate. Thus, repertoires may range from soft jazz-oriented dinner sets, to down-home acoustic country or folk blues, to raucous and rocking Blues and R&B dance sets, or some combination of these. Songs are often original with tasteful versions of songs from Blues forefathers. Sets are lively, refreshingly executed, captivating, never "typical".

The most elementary of electrical demonstrations is the shock of a livestock fence charger. You don't have to be a genius to understand only a hot wire and a ground wire are needed to produce a startling shock.
I was 8 years old, and my brother Don was 5 when we became aware of the great possibilities of this phenomenon. Further research proved a wet cement floor was a perfect ground, and a metal bedstead a perfect hot wire if wired right.
Strange, but just such a setting existed on our farm south of Perryton. The harvest crews slept in iron bedsteads (hot wire) in the bunkhouse that had cement floors (ground).
After each day's work, all the men swam in the huge stock tank nearby and dried off after coming into the bunkhouse (wet floor - better ground).
Amazingly, we knew where a fresh-charged six-volt battery was located under a workbench, along with a new International livestock fence charger hanging nearby on the wall.
We unwound small copper wire from an old generator.
During the day while the men were at work, Don and I hid the battery and charger in the bunkhouse and wired the bedsteads to the charger leads making sure all evidence was concealed. From start to finish, the installation was professional in every aspect. I even used my never-fail test equipment to make sure the wire was hot. Don jumped a foot off the floor when I had him touch the bedstead. We couldn't wait until the men came home that night.
As usual, the tired, dirty men came in from the field at dark, donned their bathing suits and swam in the big tank.
When Mother yelled, "Supper is ready," all rushed into the bunkhouse tracking water on the floor. Watching closely, I flipped the switch.
We anticipated success but nothing on the level achieved. We were astonished at the antics of the men jumping, yelling, cursing, falling on the slick floor, leaving the room a wreck in a few seconds.
As prank turned catastrophe, we became scared and fled into the darkness where we hid in tall weeds out by the mailbox on the county road. Flashlights probed every sanctuary around the farm buildings for hours. We feared for our lives.
The men hunted us like wild animals until bedtime. After the bunkhouse lights went out, Don and I sneaked into the house and used mother for protection as she thought the prank was funny. Our exile continued for three days before the heat wore off.
Needless to say, we did not try more electrical demonstrations for a while.

Category: baby names
By Abby Sandel
You know you're a name nerd when half the fun of a new Disney Pixar film is the list of production babies.
I loved every second of the studio's newest production, Inside Out.
As the credits rolled, I waited patiently. Accounting scrolled by, then Craft Services, until – finally! – the list of 87 children born to Pixar employees during the year Inside Out was finalized and released.
We could talk about Riley, of course, the name of the main character. Between this movie and Steph Curry's scene-stealing daughter, Riley is having quite the summer. And Amy Poehler, the voice of Joy, is a great namer herself, the mother of Archie and Abel.
But production babies are a special category of names.
Ever since the studio put out their first feature-length film, Toy Story, way back in 1995, they've included the list.
The lists are just names – no genders, no sibling names, middles only when more than one child has the same first name. But the names tend to be different, even daring. Exactly what you'd expect from a creative field and especially from such a famously innovative studio.
Before we go any further, it's time for a shout out to the fabulous Sarah of Names 4 Real. Sarah compiled the names after she heard me lamenting that I hadn't thought to jot them down.
Let's talk about some of my favorite names from 2015's Inside Out, and then look at the full list.
Back in April 2013, my wife and I welcomed our first child, a boy, into our budding family. Defying the common stereotype, I was the one (rather than my wife) who frequented Nameberry, scoured the Social Security Administration's name statistics, and kept my eyes peeled for any possible baby name inspirations. Fitting of my obsessive personality, I created a spreadsheet with information on every name we thought had potential. More than just a list of names, this document contained detailed entries for each name including the meaning, the origin, the current ranking, and the number of children given the name in the previous year. The list was impressive, if I do say so myself.
By Linda Rosenkrantz & Pamela Redmond Satran
The hallowed Top 1000 baby names in the US end with Kai, given to 262 baby girls last year, and Rylen, used for 205 little boys.
But what about the baby names right below the Top 1000, hiding just out of sight but prime for plucking by the clever baby namer?
We chose 25 names for girls and 25 names for boys we found swimming just beneath the surface of the Top 1000. These baby names strike the perfect balance between unusual and familiar.

Homebuilders Are Holding Up, How Much Is Left In The Tank? 0 commentsThe homebuilding stocks have been classified as bad as airlines stocks over the past five years. These stocks were the market darlings from the year 2000 into August 2005. Since the 2008 stock market crash the homebuilder stocks have been considered the ugly ducklings or rather dogs with fleas. Regardless of how you may feel about this stock sector the leading homebuilder stocks have surged higher since the October 4, 2011 stock market low.
Toll Brothers Inc (NYSE:TOL) is considered the best homebuilder because it caters to affluent clients. This stock traded as low as $13.16 a share on October 4, 2011. This afternoon, TOL stock is trading higher by 0.40 cents to $19.30 a share. The stock is now trading above the important daily chart 200 moving average which puts the stock in a strong technical position. Swing traders should watch for near term resistance around the $20.25, and $21.30 levels. TOL stock will have intra-day resistance around the $19.50 area.
Other leading homebuilder stocks that are doing well recently include PulteGroup Inc (NYSE:PHM), KB Home (NYSE:KBH), Lennar Corp. (NYSE:LEN), and DR Horton Inc (NYSE:DHI). These stocks all look as if they could have short term strength. Traders must understand that these stocks are just short term trading vehicles and really nothing more. The best way to play the homebuilders is to simply follow the leader which is Toll Brothers. When Toll Brothers stock sells off it is prudent to expect the rest of the stocks in the sector to decline.

CBNNews.com - GAZA STRIP - Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers killed three Islamic Jihad terrorists planting bombs along the security fence.
After spotting three Palestinian gunmen approaching the border fence near southern Gaza, the IDF dispatched Givati Brigade soldiers from the Tzabar Battalion.
Palestinian sources identified the gunmen as members of Islamic Jihad's al-Quds Brigades.
After detonating an explosive device near an IDF jeep, the soldiers shot them before they could plant a second bomb.
Bombs, rifles and other weapons were found on the jihadists' bodies, the IDF reported.
"The threat of explosive devices targeting army patrols is well known," an IDF officer said. "The terror organizations are going to great lengths to plant these bombs, some of which are highly advanced," he said.
In a second incident, two Palestinian gunmen approached the border fence near Khan Younis in southern Gaza.
The IAF (Israel Air Force) targeted the terror cell, hitting one gunman.
Palestinian sources reported that three members of the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades were wounded in the air strike.
Meanwhile, Palestinians fired two mortar shells into Israel, one hitting near the Karni border crossing and the other near the border fence. No one was injured, nor was there any property damage.

It's time Goodell stops Belichick from exploiting terrible NFL rule https://t.co/KdiKvoN9y7
— NFL Watchdog (@NFL_Watchdog) September 25, 2016
N.Y. Post – The greatest trick Bill Belichick pulled so far this season … has been exploiting a massive, new flaw in the NFL rulebook and using it to his team's distinct, legal advantage in the rule's infancy. …
[T]he NFL, in its eternal wisdom and frivolous desire to make the game safer, decided to bring out kickoff touchbacks to the 25-yard line. …
The Patriots have kicked off 18 times this season, and haven't had a team start a drive from beyond the 25-yard line once. Stephen Gostkowski has 10 touchbacks. The other eight led to returns inside the 25 and, on Thursday night, two fumbles. Check and mate. …
Thirteen teams have a lower touchback-percentage than the Pats but Belichick is doing it with more panache. It's purely intentional. …
It's time for the NFL to act, not because Bill Belichick is smarter than everybody else and getting an advantage, but because kickoffs are the most dangerous plays and the NFL.
This is not a repeat from 2003. Or 2004. Or 2007. Or 2014. This is just another example of the Patriots playing within the rules in a way that is smarter, more effective and better than everyone else. And so, as in those other seasons, people want the rules changed.
In the 2003-04 seasons, the Patriots defensive backs were beating receivers with a physically punishing style that made it difficult to get off the line of scrimmage. So the Colts got the league to change the rules. In 2007, the Patriots were the greatest offensive team in NFL history, so the Jets got the league to enforce a videotaping rule that had been ignored by everyone. In 2014, the Patriots put the Ravens' defensive players in a psyche ward with ineligible receiver formations they weren't equipped to handle. So Baltimore immediately went to the league to get them to … well, you know where this is going.
Now here we are again. The NFL messes with a touchback rule that's been in effect since God invented football in the Book of Genesis, the Patriots figure out a way to use the new rule to their advantage, and the reaction isn't "Hey, that's really smart of Bill Belichick" or "Credit where it's due, the Patriots' emphasis on special teams is paying off" or even "Why don't we do what they're doing?" It's everyone immediately going back to Page One of their playbook.
Change the rules to take away the Patriots advantage.
Level the playing field. Redistribute the wealth. Take from the rich and give to the poor. Stop rewarding achievement. Give everybody a participation ribbon and the Colts an "AFC Finalist" banner. Then we can all pretend the Patriots have some unfair advantage. They work, study and prepare harder than every other team. And in doing so look through the rules for ways to work them to their advantage. Meanwhile, the cyberbullies and anti-Patriots zealots prefer to stop them through legislative means instead of demanding their own organizations, coaches and players do likewise.
So go ahead. Go back to the old, 20-yard line touchback rule. Or move it up to the 30. Or midfield. Or to behind the endzone. Hell, eliminate kickoffs altogether for all anyone in New England cares. Because no matter how you write the rule, the smartest coach in the league is going to have the smartest approach to it in the league. And intelligence is something not even your stupid rule changes can stop.

This place is a good stopping point if you want to pick up some local Cincinnati ticks w/o visiting the brewers themselves. They seem to be focused on local selection--which is a good thing--and have a smattering of other craft beer as well. They have a small selection available as singles and do growler/half growler fills on a eight or a dozen taps. It does not seem to be the place to go if you are looking to stock up on rare bottles but the selection is solid and its always been fresh in my experience. My only small complaint is you have to wait in separate lines for growler fills and bottles and cans. I presume that is some sort of state law but it is still kinda a pain. In any case, aside from that, this gives me pretty much exactly what I want in a beer store which is a fresh, locally focused selection so I dig it.

OBryans Wine is the best place to go for all your needs. They have a huge selection of spirits, wines, and beers. They just got growlers and have 16 beers always on tap. The beers on tap are wonderful and are reasonably priced. Their O-to-Go growlers are so clever and unique! If you stop in and get beer to fill a growler make sure you fill their O-to Go! The staff is so welcoming, helpful, and knowledgable. They are always willing to help out and 110% of the time provide excellent costumer service. OBryans is definitely the place to come...even if you live closer to another store. There is no place that will give you the selection AND customer service like OBryans does!

midwestbeerguy (50) Ohio | March 20, 2015| Updated March 26, 2015
A great selection of domestic 6 and 12 packs including some I have never seen any place else, and they will have a growler station with 14 taps in the near future. Light on the imports and singles. Unfortunately, their rating got really messed by some idiot who goes by robben.
b3shine (318) Indiana | June 26, 2013
I had heard that this place in Loveland had a good beer and wine selection, and after stopping in, Id agree. Theyve got a pretty extensive selection (although nothing rare), and as a plus, almost every beer is cold. Its a nice, clean spot with friendly staff and decent prices. Definitely the best beer spot in Loveland that Im aware of.
JCW (147) Cincinnati, Ohio | April 16, 2013| Updated December 29, 2015
Update 4-16-13 Much expanded beer selection-interesting selections. Small but well worth the stop if you are in the area. Better selection can be had near Montgomery Rd in either direction - Riversbend Wine & Spirits North Root Cellar south. OBryans selection isnt bad though. They have Bells, Great Lakes, Flying Dog, etc and a few Belgians including several of the Trappist. If I lived close to them I go there a lot, but I wont go out of my way to make a trip there. Traffic is terrible in and around that area.

AndyReynolds (57) Cincinnati, Ohio | July 15, 2012
A friend of mine took me here and I was surprised. They had the normal DFH, Stone, and other big names you would expect, but they also had 3 floyds, TBK, nd some other small gems I have not seen at smaller liquor stores. Normally just the specialized bottle shoppes or the big guys (party source, deps, party town) carry it.
anchorsteamfan (1) Ohio | August 18, 2010
If they dont have a beer that you want , they will order for you if they can get it in Ohio. Thats a good thing if you live close by. Nice selection of beers from all around the world. And they carry all of the Cincinnati local brands.

On this website I describe how I have built my physique through TRUE natural bodybuilding. Because of the vast (ab)use of performance enhancing drugs and sports supplements by bodybuilders and so-called natural bodybuilders, I unfortunately have to introduce and define the following new term:
"TRUE Natural BodyBuilding" (short: TNBB), which basically means bodybuilding without EVER having used ANY performance enhancing drugs or supplements that do not occur in a normal healthy daily diet.
I describe on this website everything about my personal training and diet, and I explain my vision on many aspects of bodybuilding such as training, exercises, equipment, nutrition, supplements, losing body fat, doping, and injuries. Please note that anything on this website is only my personal opinion, based on more than 25 years of experience as a true natural bodybuilder and my understanding as a scientist with a Ph.D. in biophysics/biochemistry. I don't claim that what I tell on this website is the only correct approach.
It is not the intention of this website to thoroughly explain every aspect of bodybuilding or to become very scientific. If you want to know more about one specific subject, I recommend you to search the internet, which is full of detailed information. I also recommend you to use the free encyclopedia wikipedia.org as a general source of information.
Some of the main goals of this website are to promote TRUE natural bodybuilding, to tell you how I have built my true natural physique, to explain some differences between true natural and drugged bodybuilding in terms of nutrition and training, to help you figure out what is really important to reach your bodybuilding goals, what is not important, and what is total nonsense. And believe me, there are lots of nonsense and irrelevant things being told and written in the world of bodybuilding.
As you will notice while reading this website, I am a strong believer in the KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) principle. Building a great physique through true natural bodybuilding is much simpler than you might think. It does however require very strong dedication and persistence, and the art to figure out what is essential and what not.
Watch the Youtube video below to get an overview of what this website has to offer you as a natural bodybuilder and to see some pictures of myself. You will see that this website is full of free information about natural bodybuilding, training routines, exercises, nutrition, supplements, gym equipment, injuries and much more.
For your convenience I have concisely summarized all you need to know about true natural bodybuilding, including training, nutrition and supplementation, on a single webpage: how to get big - all secrets revealed. This webpage is a great starting point in case you want to read through the site and discover step by step everything you need to know in order to be able to develop your physique as efficiently as possible without using anabolic steroids or unnatural performance enhancing supplements.
If you are serious about gaining muscle mass and especially about losing body fat you carefully have to monitor what and how much you eat every day. I have developed a very convenient tool for natural bodybuilders that can help you build your personal diet plan. It is an excel workbook that calculates how many calories, carbs, protein, fat, vitamins and minerals you need to eat every day. The excel sheet contains nutritional data for about 8000 different foods. You can watch the youtube demo video below or download the high quality video in Windows Media Video (.wmv) or Flash (.swf) format. Download the TNBB diet plan excel now for free.
I have written down the complete true natural bodybuilding training routine that I have been following for years to develop my physique in a convenient excel format. It clearly outlines how the 5-day split training routine is built up, which muscles are trained in each of the 5 workouts, which exercises are performed for each muscle group, and how many sets and reps are done. Download the TNBB training routine now for free.
Finally it is so far! The eBook version of this website is ready and available. All information and pictures available in an easy to read and navigate PDF-file with electronic bookmarks and hyperlinks. Now you can easily read everything you need to know about true natural bodybuilding from A to Z in one fluent text on screen or on a paper printout (170 pages letter/A4 format). Get it for FREE.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Beer Talk' started by Googs, Feb 12, 2013.
This is one way to completely give up on getting the general public to "RESPECT BEER".
Which is going to come first for the OP: Liver failure, a DUI, or enrollment in AA?
A 40oz of an imperial stout at like, 10%? Nah, I'll pass
What if his liver fails on his way to AA and gets pulled over for a DUI?
Bombers and 750s are already overpriced, I'd have to see what they would charge for 40's.
Ask him!
Ill go with DUI for the win!......and by win.....I mean loss!
Guess you like having your one glass of craft beer and then your done for the night, maybe getting in the bed with the wife and reading a book. I'm not there yet guy...I'm 21. I'm still out n about sometimes and when I'm going to a party or even a bottle share with my frineds, I like to get saucy and I want to get saucy off some damn good beer, not fizzy yellow water. Beer can be enjoyed in small amounts and in very large amounts, that's the glory of it!!!
On another note, beer is a hobby for me and I have no dependency on booze. Plus I don't even drive, I live in NYC. Owning a car is almost pointless.
Yeah dude, the 24 oz bottles of SPA are sweet for hanging out. Don't agree on the really big beers though, you miss out on the aroma that way. But with something really sessionable that doesn't feel like your cheating the experience by drinking from the bottle, yeah 40s would be pretty tight. It isn't that crazy... as the craft market expands companies will look for different niches.
For what it's worth, I asked the local homebrew shop by about getting 40oz bottles a while back, and they said they typically don't hold carbonation well.
Why don't you empty a 4 pack of Old Rasputin into a spent King Cobra 40oz bottle? Boom. You have a 40 of Old Rasputin.
I'm pretty sure I was already reading books and going to bed with women by the time I was 21, but some mature more quickly than others. Nothing to be ashamed of.
I like forties until the last ten, which is always warm and flat and spitty.
Founders could do one and call it "Backwoods F'ing Biotch!"
I can't believe I'm reading this when I see most Americans bitch and moan about 750s
That being said, any good beer should be a moderated treat imo. If you want to binge on craft, get a kegerator and drink your fill.
funny guy
Maybe you should leave craft beer for the adults, eh?
This is true, but only if the beer in question is available in a small format. Put it in a 40 and it's hard to enjoy it in small amounts.
Like an above-poster said, by the end of a 40oz, you won't have much carbonation left. Unless you chug it, in which case you're probably not leaving much time to actually taste it, and in that case you might as well go with some malt liquor.
Again, I think the biggest problem would be the perception of non craft beer drinkers. All of a sudden you will have lost some ground trying to convince people that beer should be of high quality, and is worth extra cost.
This. Not a beer that sucks warm and mellow.
Can't have them in Florida...
I want to party with you.
There's no reason that an authentic Craft brewer -couldn't- bottle a lower-to-mid strength beer in that format, but the format itself has carried a stigma for a good long while now. Thus, the format trumps the hand-crafted image which is necessary to sell Craft beer at retail (at least; I've -almost- never seen 40oz at on-sale ).
Ten Fidy in a Foh-tee? Word!
wouldnt that be 10 fody?
Bottling in 40oz won't change the batch size the brewer is able to produce and store and would cut down the availability then to ship more bottles out of market. Your dealing with small brewers in most cases. Less bottles would just drive up aftermarket prices on beer lists and ebay (still being done just call it *empty) don't think anyone here wants to see that
For maximum hilarity, read this post in the voice of David Chapelle imitating a white guy.
lol good one! you sure told him!!!11!
Now you wait just a gosh darn second Rondell
As the lead baritone in my local jug band, I'd love to see more craft beers in 40oz bottles.
Slightly off topic, but am I the only one here who's never actually had a 40?
I have not had one as well. However I like the 12 ozers so I can switch it up within a style if need be. Or I can just open another of the same...
Go big or go home, why not add 24oz and just get a growler . . .
This has been an idea of mine for a long time, using a 40 as a growler is hilarious. Lagunitas coming out with 32oz sucks hurt but its still not a 40!
I remember getting King Cobra 40s every chance we could... When I was a teenager. And if you were short on cash for that premium drink? ... A $.79 Laser 40. We would light the bag on fire when you got toward the end of the bottle. Forced you to pound it cause it tasted sooo damn horrible. Haha. Good times.
The last time I had a 40 ounce bomber was in 1965. Bought at the base exchange at Kadina AFB in Okinawa. Lucky Lager 40 ounce bombers were 25 cents. How's that for some nostalgia.
Too much. Half way through Id already be growing tired of it
I think it's hilarious. The original idea was to put them in 40's, but apparently someone important (marketing?) would have none of it, so they dropped it down to 32oz. Either way, I'm looking forward to downing big bottles of Sucks year round. Two of those then it's off to the bar!
I don't want to drink 40oz of any beer all at once. I'm having a Hopslam as I write this, and I'm thinking 24oz max and i'd want to switch to something else. I like variety, and after the second of any beer, it seems to be not as great as the first two were.
Drinking a Bull Ice right now. I don't want 40s of true craft styles...except maybe like pales or IPAs...but a really good quality malt liquor would be kinda cool.
Buy 2 bombers and you're 4 oz. ahead.
b/c nobody needs a 40oz serving for a 7-10% IPA or stout or anything. grossly excessive.

This occurred at Heathrow Airport back at the beginning of June, but it's important and worth mentioning. Chip Cantor, a young man from Kansas City going to England to intern and raise money for a child to go to Disney World, was turned away by immigration officials and sent back to the US -- it seems, for no other reason except that he is Jewish.
This is part of a disturbing trend in Britain, as Melanie Phillips noted back in 2007. As more and more Arab immigrants have taken refuge in the UK, anti-semitism has become a more prominent feature of life there, notwithstanding the historic leadership provided by people of Jewish heritage like Benjamin Disraeli (one of my favorite prime ministers!).
It is important for people of all faiths -- and of none! -- to speak out against the injustices that are perpetrated against people like Chip Cantor. If we who can speak out refuse to do so, we will fully deserve any such evils that are visited upon us because we are Christians, Americans, or for any other invidious reason.

q =
The term q represents the heat energy that is gained or lost. Cp is the specific heat of water, m isthe mass of water, and ΔT is the temperature change of the reaction mixture. The specific heatand mass of water are used because water will either gain or lose heat energy in a reaction thatoccurs in aqueous solution. Furthermore, according to a principle known as Hess's law, theenthalpy changes of a series of reactions can be combined to calculate the enthalpy change of areaction that is the sum of the components of the series.
In this experiment, you will Use Hess's law to determine the enthalpy change of the reaction between aqueousammonia and aqueous hydrochloric acid. Compare your calculated enthalpy change with the experimental results.

Vertical Geographies
Recent geographical scholarship has highlighted the importance of 'verticality' – aerial and three dimensional perspectives – in conceptualizations of space, territory, sovereignty and power. Within the subdiscipline of critical geopolitics, this interest has been, in part, provoked by recent events in Iraq and Afghanistan and mobilized though broader discussions of warfare, surveillance, air (and space) power, communications technologies and military hardware.
This one day workshop aims to both interrogate and develop conceptual understandings of the geographies and geopolitics of verticality by bringing together a broad range of scholars and scholarly approaches. Themes might include:
* aerial surveying and surveillance
* verticality of urban design and destruction
* vertical geographies of geophysical and atmospheric sciences
* Virtual and transnational verticality: technology, global networks and communications
This event has been recorded and is available as a podcast at the following URL:

They needed more manpower to bring in that initial beet crop, and Russ made himself available.

Anonymous comments astound me - school buses are only safe if they're not involved in an accident! How many buses catch fire - a rarety. If the bus rolls, I'd rather be strapped in by a lap/sash seat belt that hitting the roof, then the seats, like being in a washing machine with children & heavy school bags. If the kids are unconscious it would be harder to get kids out, that's for sure. Rex wants children who would wear seat belts, to be killed, because Rex doesn't want them to have access to this well proven safety device. No lap/sash seat belt, less chance of survival. Outlaw lap belts.
