Twelve players have reportedly accepted 50-game suspensions for violating Major League Baseball's drug policy.
Rangers outfielder Nelson Cruz, Tigers shortstop Jhonny Peralta, Phillies reliever Antonio Bastardo, Mets outfielder Jordany Valdespin, Padres shortstop Everth Cabrera, free-agent pitcher Jordan Norberto, Yankees catcher Francisco Cervelli, Mariners catcher Jesus Montero, Mets outfielder Cesar Puello, Astros pitcher Sergio Escalona, Padres pitcher Fautino De Los Santos and Yankees outfielder Fernando Martinez have accepted their punishments handed out by Major League Baseball, Fox Sports' Ken Rosenthal reports, citing sources.
Athletics pitcher Bartolo Colon, Blue Jays outfielder Melky Cabrera and Padres catcher Yasmani Grandal received no additional punishments. They each have served 50-game suspensions following a positive test.
Nationals pitcher Gio Gonzalez and Orioles infielder Danny Valencia have been cleared of any wrongdoing.
An announcement is still expected for a potential suspension for Alex Rodriguez, who is is still expected to play third base for the New York Yankees Monday night as the Bronx Bombers open up a series against the White Sox in Chicago. Hours before first pitch, however, Major League Baseball is expected to announce that Rodriguez will be banned for at least the remainder of the 2013 season and possibly all of the 2014 season as a result of MLB's investigation into a Miami clinic accused of distributing banned performance-enhancing drugs to baseball players.

Depth carries Pats to top againBy Dennis Jensen Herald Staff | February 27,2006ALBERT J. MARRO / RUTLAND HERALD
Otter Valley's Eric Russell has Essex's Tom Cogsley at a disadvantage during Saturday's state wrestling championships, at Otter Valley Union High School.BRANDON Make that 18 in a row for Mount Anthony.
Mount Anthony sent nine wrestlers into the finals and seven emerged as state champions as the Patriots notched their 18th consecutive state title in the 37th annual Vermont State Wrestling Championships at Otter Valley Union High School Saturday.
The Patriots won going away, racking up 293 points and getting all 14 wrestlers into the top five places.
Otter Valley took second place with 186.5 points and Mount Mansfield was third with 165 points. Rutland finished in seventh place with 65 points, while Mill River was 10th and Fair Haven 17th in the 20-school competition.
Patriots coach Scott Legacy said his kids showed poise and talent at the biggest state wrestling match of the year.
"It just shows the depth that we have," he said. "I think we surprised some people. We graduated six state champions last year and a runner-up."
Legacy said this year's win was just as sweet as all the others.
"Each one feels good," he said. "But each team, every year, comes in with its own uniqueness."
Legacy said that there was no magic formula to the Patriots' long string of state titles.
"We don't have a cookie cutter here" that produces a new championship team each year, he said. Rather, it is a community, team and coaching effort that enables the Patriots to keep winning.
Brandon Bushee (103 pounds), Scott Legacy (112), John Andrews (119), Corey Greene (130), Seth Coulter (140), Mike Becker (145) and Mark Hall (171) all won championships in their weight classes for Mount Anthony.
Otter Valley's wrestlers put on a heck of show for the loud home-team crowd at the gymnasium known as "The House of Noise."
The Otters had three wrestlers in the finals and one, Christian Fjeld, emerged as a state champion.
Fjeld, a senior who wrestles at 275, pulled the upset of the finals when the No. 4 seed defeated top-seeded Ryan Bull of Mount Anthony by a 7-5 score.
Otter coach Kyle Bearor said his team's second-place finish was a clear sign that wrestling is back at Otter Valley.
"It's really important for the program," he said. "We filled the stands with people. People who hadn't seen wrestling before are coming here now. It's just going to make people more aware of just how much effort goes into this and how hard these guys work."
The Otters will send four wrestlers to the New Englands.
"The atmosphere here at the House of Noise hasn't been like this for a long time," Bearor said. "I'm just so proud of these kids and of the staff that put this tournament on."
Mount Anthony set the tone for the evening by winning the first three title matches.
Bushee easily handled Jordan Gray of Essex with a 10-0 victory.
Scott Legacy, the coach's son, won all three of his matches by pins and finished up the night with a pin at 3:24 over Mill River's Jonathan Majka.
John Andrews won his second straight state championship for Mount Anthony with a 5-0 win over Rutland's Jeremy Allen.
The Raiders, meanwhile, got two seconds and a third-place win and will send three grapplers to the New Englands.
Colchester's Travis St. Hilaire won his second straight state title, in the 125-pound match, with an 11-4 win over Kevin Fleury of Spaulding.
Corey Greene, the Patriots' nationally ranked wrestler and a defending New England champion, registered his third state title with a technical fall win over Mount Mansfield's Matthew Parisi.
In the 135-pound title match, Middlebury's Ethan Raymond won an easy, 11-2 victory over Mount Mansfield's Ted Randall.
Coulter gave the Patriots another title with his 140-pound win over Matt Costa of St. Johnsbury. Coulter coasted to an 11-1 decision.
Becker pulled out a gutsy, 4-2 win over Otter Valley's Taylor Mason in their 145-pound title match.
Dillon Towne, the lone grappler from U-32, pinned his way through the tournament and finished with a pin at 5:20 over Mount Mansfield's Jevin Corruth at 152 pounds.
Mount Mansfield's Robert Hamlin won the 160-pound title with an 8-2 decision over Spaulding's Brian Bailey.
Mount Anthony's Hall punched his way to the New Englands with a 9-4 win at 171 pounds over Mount Mansfield's Christopher Hamlin.
Sam Palmer gave the Otters their second individual state title. The 189-pound wrestler, the No. 2 seed, easily handled top-seeded Matthew Morin of Mount Mansfield by a 10-2 decision.
Middlebury's Steve Whitney and Rutland's Jake Kirk-Elkin wrestled to a 3-3 tie after regulation in their 215-pound title match. Whitney pulled out the victory in overtime after the Rutland grappler was called for stalling.
Coach Legacy said that he is well aware that, every year, somebody is gunning for Mount Anthony.
"There's a lot of pressure, a lot of expectations on them," he said of his wrestlers. "But we went through this season and the kids handled it well. I'm a lucky man."
In all, 141 wrestlers competed in the tournament.
The teams, and how they finished:
1, Mount Anthony 293 points; 2, Otter Valley 186.5; 3, Mount Mansfield 165; 4, Middlebury 96; 5, Spaulding 90; 6, Essex 74; 7, Rutland 65; 8, St. Johsbury 63.5; 9, Randolph 57; 10, Mill River 56; 11, Champlain Valley 55; 12, Colchester 51; 13, Harwood 34.5; 14, Milton 34.5; 15, Mount Abraham 33; 16, U-32 30; 17, Fair Haven 24; 18, North County 12; 19, Vergennes 9; 20, Enosburg 6.

I am so excited about this next find I almost fainted when I found it! I love the look of old mixed folk tiles like the ones you see in old Portugese or Spanish homes. I love the nostaligic look they have and they bring colour and warmth to a home. And it reminds me of Spain where many years ago I lived for a few months as an exchange student and fell in love with the country. So, imagine my excitement when I found these wallpapers over at Louise Body.
I remember many years ago there was a home make-over show here in the Netherlands where one family had their home redecorated in a morrocan style. One of the main features in the home was a wall in the livingroom(!) completely coverd in these type of tiles. And I thought it looked spectacular!!! I never forgot it. So, ever since I've been in love with these tiles. Now, covering an entire wall with tiles is a bit drastic and a hasle when you want to change things. So, how fab is it that you can create the look with these wallpapers?
Louise Body is a designer of wallpapers and fabrics based in the UK. The designs all have a little nostalgia to them and have a bit of a romantic look. Visit the online shop to have a look at the rest of the collection or to order.
I would love one day to have a very modern kitchen with these tiles as a backsplash. You could also cover the backsplash with wallpaper and then putting a protective layer over it. My favorite ones are the one all the way up in the first image, called Mixed folk, and the one with the yellow tiles called Dhalia.

Poll: Will there be a new iPod touch this year?
Apple has neglected to update its iPod lineup as often as it did in the past, which could be expected as quarterly sales of the portable media players continue to decline. Unlike last year, a next-generation iPod touch was not introduced alongside the new iPhone at Apple's September media event.
That raises the question, will there be a new iPod touch this year? While there should be another media event planned for October, it will likely revolve around the launch of new iPads. But nothing is for certain, so we'll have to wait a few more weeks to find out. Wishlists?

Marketing Claims or Libel? And More Free Legal Advice – Free Joe 11/8/11
On Tuesdays and Fridays, attorney Joe Escalante answers legal questions for free on the LegalZoom Facebook Page. Did you miss the last Free Joe? Don't worry. We've got it all right here.
Jeffrey: Joe; If I post that DAMPS Technology Smart Boots make all other boots obsolete for shock mitigation and can prove it, is this just accurate marketing or a set up for a libel claim.
Joe Escalante: This is called "puffing" and is non actionable. It's like a strip club saying "we have the hottest chicks in town on our poles, all the others are skanks." It's normal commercial puffery. Puff away my friend.
Jeanet: Helo Joe im a 24 year old male i have a child of 3 years old. The morther took him away from me and i hadnt had any luck seeing him she is pregnant agin but doesnt have a hushband or lover in her life what i want to know is if i stand a change of getting my son back? im engaged and have a home and car will they give him to me?
Joe Escalante: You have to go one step at a time. Go to the family court where the child lives and file papers to demand custody of your child. The mother can object to this, but it all must be done in court. The best way to do this is with a family law attorney. At least meet with one in the area where the child lives.
It can be done without an attorney, but it's tough. You are doing the right thing by building a case that it is in the best interest of the child to live with you. You have a stable environment. You have a home and a car, good; unless they are the same thing. ooooops. good luck.
Ann: My mother is 86 and has no will. She lives with us and owns no home or auto. I am a co-signer on her checking account. Is it really necessary for her to have a will? We ARE in the process of getting a power of attorney and living will done with legal software that just came in the mail (from Costco).
Joe Escalante: A will is about as easy as all the stuff you are doing, so why not do it. I would do it with Legalzoom. Their pizza isn't as good as Costco's but parking is easier. One thing to consider is getting all bank accounts changed to "Payable on death to_____." That will avoid probate for that stuff.
LegalZoom: Here's a link to learn more about wills, Ann: http://www.legalzoom.com/legal-wills/wills-overview.html
Shavonda: Can an apartment complex charge you for unclean carpet after 3 years of occupancy? Isn't that considered "normal wear and tear"?
Joe Escalante: That would be "normal wear and tear" in my book. Now if they use Luminol on the place and there's blood everywhere, that's a different story. That story is called "Blood Everywhere."
Scotty: Can an attorney drop you during the middle of a criminal case for non payment???
Joe Escalante: no. a criminal lawyer has to stay until the end in a normal circumstance. A civil lawyer can quit by notifying all parties but the lawyer of record on a criminal case is usually on the hook until the end. Pay the man.
Linda: about a year ago the city where we live talked to my daughter about cleaning up my yard. she did not get my approval for this to be done. the city man told her that she could make arrangments to pay a little at a time so she did not tell me. she thought she could make arrangments to pay a little each month. they told her she had 30 days after she got the bill to come in and sign that. she never got a bill. they put it($3800 total) on my tax bill. taking my monthly payment from $250.00 a month to $750.00 a month. i am 76 years old and am about to lose my house over this. did they have a legal right to do this without my permission.
Joe Escalante: If you are the only name on the property's title, and someone has put a lien on the title based on a transaction of which you were not a part, it sounds illegal.
They would have had to get a judgment in a court to get a lien on your property. You need to get that judgment vacated. But let's tidy up the yard first.
Dar: Hey Joe, Q: Post divorce, is the income from capital gains subject to any claim from an ex-spouse for future alimony or other claim of any kind? (California)
Joe Escalante: If the capital gains are from community property, then there will be a claim on it by the ex spouse. However, since any gains would be speculative, you could negotiate to have them excluded as part of the support order. It's all a negotiation. You give her something, she gives you something. It's deal making. You can make any deal the parties agree to as long as the court doesn't think it's patently unfair.
Laurie: how do i file papers to let my fiance adopt my child and take the rights away from her bio daughter without having to pay a lawyer
Joe Escalante: I'm assuming you mean bio-father. You go to the family court in the area where the child lives, and you file papers for a court order terminating the parental rights of the bio-father. He will be noticed by you of the action, and he will have an opportunity to object. He could even try to get your parental rights terminated if he wants. Good luck.
Daniel: Hi I have a registered trademark … How much of a change or adjustment can I make without having to reregister. the logo has four islands .. what if I move one of the islands a short distance?
Joe Escalante: This is what I wrote last time you asked this, and I stand by my answer: If it doesn't materially alter the mark, it may be quite simple to amend the registration. check out this link: http://teasroa.uspto.gov/ppa/
LegalZoom: Thanks for joining us for Free Joe Tuesday, folks! More free legal advice from Barely Legal Radio w/ Joe Escalante on Friday. Come on back then and bring your legal questions! http://zoo.mn/FreeJoe

Kristín purchased this cottage in 2013
Cottages Engjagil 4 and 5 in Helludalur Geysir area are built in the year 2007-8, made of logs from Finland, the houses are situated in the peaceful valley Helludalur yet it is in the midst of the Golden Circle, what we love about this place is that we find peace and tranquillity during our stays there and it has been a huge pleasure to share this special place with our guests, we are thankful and blessed to do so.
The cottage has enough space for up to 6 persons, the beds are very comfortable and on the loft there is a roof window right above your head so you can see the stars at night. Icelandic ponies are often in the field a few steps from the cottage. Because we have 2 cottages in the same area we can have up to 12 persons at the same time.
We felt at home the moment we walked in. Very clean and fully stocked with everything we needed. The views are spectacular and the hot tub is the perfect way to end a day of exploring. Kristin is awesome to work with. For folks that have traveled a little it this will certainly be on the top of your list of places you've ever been. Seldom do we entertain the idea of returning to a vacation location- too much else to see- but we can definitely see ourselves back in Iceland and at this house. Thank you very much.
My husband and I stayed at this cabin during our honeymoon to Iceland - it was fabulous! The location was wonderful - it was within walking distance to Geysir and the visitors center, which offered a great gluten free lamb soup and lattes! The bed in the cabin was super comfortable, the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the view was outstanding. With all that being said, the hot tub was by far our favorite feature! We would come back at night from a long day of exploring, and sit in the hot tub with a drink to watch the sun go down.
Kristin was a wonderful host. She went out of her way to answer any questions that we had, and offered many suggestions on places to go or things to do.
We hope to come back to Iceland some day, and if we do, we will certainly seek out Kristin's homey cabins once again!
Do not hesitate to stay in Kristin's cottage! It is located in a great spot,with snow covered mountains all around. Iceland is so wide open, it is a shame to see the sites with busloads of people.With a car and this as your base, you can bypass the crowds and explore on your own, especially if you go on off hours. The cottage is clean and in good shape and Kristen made it all easy. Lindin in Laugarvatn is a nice lakeside bistro, next to the great pool. and Skol is pub a mile past Geysir toward Gullfoss .Highly recommended!
The home is the epitome of everything wonderful in Iceland. We loved the vistas all around us and looked forward to the hot tub every day. The rooms were welcoming and the kitchen well stocked with all the right equipment. We would return every season if we could.
The whole experience was fantastic - the house was clean, well equipped, beautifully kept, and warm! The hot tub was glorious - we used it everyday. This is a truly amazing place for a winter getaway and I would go back without a second thought!
It's easy to walk to Geysir, even in deep snow, and was a quick drive to Gulfoss - we could beat the crowds to both. Even going at peak crowd time both attractions were enjoyable.
If you're equipped for cold weather and snow, both in yourself and your vehicle, I cannot recommend this highly enough. Thank you Kristin!
We will be back...
An amazing location, the cabin is well equipped. The hot tub is amazing! We got to see the northern lights while bathing. Such a good experience. Kristin was very helpful and friendly! Highly recomended!
Only a few local TV stations,3 g internet is available - not for downloading though.

A century ago, Benjamin Silliman, professor of chymistry and natural sciences at Yale College (now Yale University), described East Rock and West Rock as "forming bold and beautiful features in the scenery around New Haven . . . looking like an immense work of art." The Rocks, he noted, were indispensable stops for a geology course. ...

Geology as a science went through a major stage in its punctuated evolution during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.

Nightingale Gallery Presents EOU Faculty Exhibition
The Nightingale Gallery begins a new year and academic term with an exhibition of works by Eastern Oregon University's accomplished visual arts faculty.
The exhibition opens with a reception on Friday, January 11 from 6-8pm in the gallery located in Loso Hall. The show will run through Friday, February 1. Gallery hours are Monday through Friday 11am to 4pm.
The biennial Faculty Exhibition features work from the six nationally and internationally recognized artists who make up EOU's art department and offers a collective view of their recent creative endeavors. The integration of the each artist's body of work into the communal space of the Nightingale Gallery allows viewers to explore visual relationships amongst the artists as well as consider the newest trends in the work of some of this area's most dynamic and respected artists.
The six artists with works on exhibit are Professor of sculpture, Doug Kaigler; Associate Professor and Director of the Nightingale Gallery, Cory Peeke; Associate Professor of painting, Jessica Plattner; Assistant Professor of printmaking, Susan Murrell; Assistant Professor of photography, Michael Sell and Visiting Assistant Professor of ceramics Jess Riva Cooper.
Doug Kaigler will present some of his most recent sculptural works which both feature and explore the elemental materials of wood, stone and water. Cory Peeke and Jessica Plattner will each present some of their most recent collage works. Peeke's works feature found vintage photography which through the process of collage combines with other elements to become something both fresh and familiar. Plattner's collages depict her infant daughter in a variety of surreal settings and act as a meditation on the magical possibilities of childhood. Susan Murrell will exhibit a selection of prints made during her summer residency at the Crow Shadow Institute. The photographic portraits that Mike Sell has on view are part of his larger investigation into fictional and real selves and how the Internet enables users to fictionalize themselves in a public manner. And visiting artist Jess Riva Cooper, who is filling in for Peter Johnson while he is on sabbatical, will present a selection of her newest ceramic sculpture inspired by the literature of Yiddish folklore, science fiction, and magical realism.
"Just as we six artists have come together to create a vibrant Art program at Eastern Oregon University we have worked together to create a dynamic exhibition which explores the individual talents of each as well as the collaborative nature inherent in our close knit program," said Cory Peeke, Nightingale Gallery Director.
For more on each individual artist and their work please visit the EOU Art program faculty webpage: https://www.eou.edu/art/faculty/.
In conjunction with the exhibit the artists will present a gallery talk about their work on Thursday, January 24 from 5-7 p.m. in Nightingale Gallery. The talk is free and open to the public.
The Nightingale Gallery is located in Loso Hall on the campus of Eastern Oregon University in La Grande, OR. Gallery hours are Monday-Friday 11AM-4PM. For more information please visit our website: https://www.eou.edu/art/nightingale-gallery/ or follow us on Facebook.

The Lovely Apple
There are a lot of myths and misconceptions about how to dress up well when we are not familiar with our own body type. But how can a person not be familiar with his or her own body?
By familiarity, I am talking about love and acceptance. Only when a woman cultivates these two attributes, will she get familiar with her own body. If this physical structure we're born with, which we call body, is not fully loved and accepted, our inner and outer self will always be in a struggle.
When we love and accept who we are, life becomes so different, so positive and so great. Love your body instead of fighting against it. That's one of many strong principles in the art of styling.
In the previous weeks, we introduced the concept of the 5 main body types, now it's time to get to know them better. This week, we will explore the best clothing options for the Lovely Apple.
Knowledge is power, remember? When you feel empowered, there's no fear. No fear of clothes, malls, salespeople or colors. (Yes, fashion is insightful!)
The Apple body type is known to have the larger proportion of its form carried around the tummy area and not to have a defined waistline. But is that true?
What is a waistline, after all? Isn't it at the belly button area? Not always. The thinnest area of the torso of an Apple-shaped woman is a little bit below the bust line, then making this area her waistline. Because of that, garments that are fitted at this particular area are the best bets for our lovely Apples.
Ready to explore more details?
Belts should be positioned with calm and patience. It will take you some minutes to find your sweet waistline spot at first, but once you find it, you'll feel so happy about your new discovery. You will see belts as great friends instead of outer space objects that until then could only be of use of other women.
Another way to make a good use of your waistline is through the Empire Waist silhouette dresses. The Empire Waist is fitted until below the bust line, falling loose from there to the bottom hem. This silhouette elongates the body at the same time that it disguises the tummy curves.
That's important information. Most Apple-shaped women wear fitted garments that define too much the curves of her stomach. By falling loose from the waistline down, the empire silhouette will take all attention off this area.
If you would like to elongate your body, use plenty of V or U necklines. In case you keep the tziniut dress code, you can create an optical illusion by using a V or U necklace, a fake collar or just a scarf beautifully adjusted in these shapes. The effect takes on an even nicer appearance if a mirrored V is made, meaning, a V-necklace on top of a V-neckline. Besides elongating the neck and body, the V shape on your top will take away attention from your midsection.
Use and abuse of drapes: placed in the right position, drapes take away all the attention given to your mid-section curves and create a flattering look. Another reminder: when wearing knits, give preferences to prints. Why? Because the eyes crave shapes, shades and colors. When using a jersey knit in solid color, the eye would go after all body curves and traces of shades it can find. Solid color knits are revealing, so it can cause a lot of… "situations," as I would put it. By using printed knits, the eyes will be distracted by the prints and will not pay attention to the body forms. It's easy!
Why not look for a printed wrap dress that creates drapes at the waistline area? If you prefer woven fabrics, go with textured ones.
For jackets and sweaters, choose the ones whose hems finish a bit lower than your hipbone. If the jackets are fitted (tailored or structured), bingo! A fitted jacket does the entire job: it shapes the body beautifully and gives a wonderful waist definition.
Leave your tailored or structured jackets open, it will give you a slimmer figure.
Another important hint is to bring attention to your bottom half with the help of A-line and flared skirts: they will create an "hourglass" illusion. Flared skirts also look great on you.
A characteristic of the Apple shaped woman are her beautiful, sensitive and slim arms. In order to balance the arms with your body form, give preference to detailed sleeves, such as bell shapes or others with fuller details and embroideries at the hems.
If you like pants, avoid the tapered and skinny styles and give preference to comfortable trousers with straight or wide legs.
Regarding accessories, go with a statement necklace and earrings. But keep in mind, no jewelry gets even close to the power of your smile…
Are you going to an event with photographers? That's a tricky situation, because photographers are usually guys… and they are usually tall… What happens then is that if you are wearing a knee length dress or skirt, you will look shorter in the picture because a taller person is taking it. For this situation, give preference to an ankle length dress, skirt or pants.
Styling tips are just a small hint, a small door that, if opened, can lead you to a whole new world of self discovery and satisfaction. The question I hear the most from my Apple shaped friends are "How do I hide this?" "How do I hide that?" and the answer is: show off your personal beauty instead of trying to hide it.
By self-accepting, loving and being kind to yourself, you will be able to see even more styling possibilities than the ones presented here. In general, the fashion industry is greedy, and all it wants is to collect an extra buck from potential consumers. It wants to take off pounds, wrinkles, colors, diversity, individuality and our personality. If reality depended of fashion ads, we would all be as if we came out of a cloning factory, because we would all look the same. How against nature is that?
You are beautiful. You have great potential, and you use the art of styling as much as you can to create harmony between your majestic personality and your external self.
Next week we will discuss colors. Yes, these fierce expressions of nature that can be found anywhere in the universe, but not in most wardrobes. Why is that? Once this important step of styling is acknowledged, we will continue with our body types series.
Thank you for reading!

Women with heavier, larger bodies than what society has, for whatever reason, deemed most attractive have long been neglected in the porn world, relegated to obscure niche titles with little to offer mainstream porn fans. Plumper Pass, on the other hand, has been bringing BBWs to the mainstream for years and, with recent upgrades and updates to its private members area, this outstanding BBW venture is even more appealing than ever. With 1080p HD videos and high-res photos showcasing every curve and crevice and crack of porn's top heavy-set stars, Plumper Pass is as tasty as it looks.
Busty women - and by "busty" I mean those ranging from "cleavage-baring" to "unable to be restrained by conventional brassieres" - are a key ingredient in most pornography and especially that of Denys Defrancesco. A Frenchman now based in Budapest, Defrancesco has many websites showcasing his work, but none are more inviting than DDF Busty. Home to women with seemingly boundless breasts, hooters that leap from their underwire cages and grab your attention by the balls, demanding a closer look, DDF Busty is Defrancesco's chest-heavy porn emporium.
The bigger, the better, that's what they say. And in this case, "they" are Score Group, the folks behind one of the premiere plumper-porn showcases the World Wide Web has ever seen. XL Girls is its name and BBW porno is its game! Vowing to delivery brilliant High Definition hardcore movies starring the world's phattest, fattest pornstars - buxom babes like Cat Bangles and Alaura Grey - XL Girls has its sites set on the hungriest of BBW porn fans.
Scoreland isn't quite a theme park, not even a virtual one, but it's kinda, sorta, maybe close. Filled from top-to-bottom with the bustiest women in all of porn, women like Angela White and Christy Marks, Scoreland is the Score Group empire's celebration of big-breasted babes, their bodies and minds, their sexualities, and most of all the heaving orbs of fleshy awesomeness mounted atop their chests. With HD videos and frequent updates, Scoreland aims to have you ogling more HD huge-titty porn than you ever knew existed.
Porn Mega Load isn't a discount warehouse of B-stock smut, nor is it an unstoppable wave of constant streaming entertainment. Really, Porn Mega Load is a mix of both of these things, forming a strikingly raunchy High Definition showcase of Score Group's hottest movies. Scenes pulled from XL Girls and 18 Eighteen, 50 Plus MILFs and Leg Sex, this HD heaven trumps other Score sites when it comes to visual quality and HD viewing, if not the sex itself. More expensive than most would like, Porn Mega Load is a premium service for premium Score fans.
When you brand yourself the nastiest niche hardcore site on the 'net, you've set a pretty huge challenge to live up to. Does White Ghetto make the grade or fall flat on its face trying? Well, neither actually. White Ghetto's granny-gaping, bindi-blasting, BBW-pounding porn delivers plenty of depraved power in 1080p HD video streams and downloads, showcasing porn's wildest performers, sickest directors, and most creatively disgusting DVD titles as nobody else can. Bless you, White Ghetto, you sick bastard.
Reined in by a well-fitting brasserie or pushing out the top of a corset, in bikinis and bralettes and crop tops and tees, the primitive sexual appeal of buxom women is as undeniable as death or taxes. Big Boob Bundle knows this all too well and aims to make you a true believer, if you weren't already, in the power of huge chesty mounds of breasty breast! With High Definition videos and clear, colorful photo galleries hitting the 32-site network three-times-a-week, Big Boob Bundle is a huge dose of all kinds of boob-obsessed porn.
Pinup Files might not be all that close in style to the classic cheesecake style of the 40s and 50s from which it draws its name, but if you're into voluptuous models who give little away but their heaving, undulating breasts, this could be the perfect site to kick your libido into overdrive.

Week Ending: August 16, 2013
"This Week in CyanogenMod" is an ongoing feature that aims to serve as a one-stop shop for weekly updates. Topics discussed are culled from our social media accounts, gerrit, status updates and general thoughts.
"CM 10.2 ate my cat!"
As most people have noticed, we have initiated the nightlies for the 10.2 code branch. Incidentally, some of you didn't notice, and flashed CM 10.2 directly onto your phones thinking it was just another 10.1 build. This is normally a non-issue, except that many of you did so while running incompatible third-party addons, kernels, and proprietary apps. For those that this applies to we'd like to calmly and kindly remind you that app force closures due to these incompatible items are not bugs – do not report anything 10.2 related to our bug tracker, we will close them. Bugs tickets are only accepted against M/RC and general releases.
"But 10.2 broke my phone!"
So, you ended up with an issue during your install and things are not quite working as they should, and want to know how to get back to 'normal'? Forum moderator bassmadrigal was kind enough to write up a thread with a synopsis of best practices and troubleshooting for you, aptly titled "How do I update CyanogenMod?", worth a read for those of you who are stuck.
Not to dwell on the topic too much longer, but we'd also like to remind you that 'nightlies' are unchecked, untested, automated builds created by our build machines. They are prone to bugs, regressions, breakages and other assorted oddities. If you cannot accept those possibilities, please stick to something tagged 'M', 'RC' or 'general release'.
"My phone app is uninstalled?"
Don't panic, we didn't remove the phone from your…well, phone. It simply changed names in Android 4.3, rendering old shortcuts broken. If you need to know how to add it back, hit the link.
"Where did the setting for [insert feature] go in 10.2?"
As we mentioned last week, the final piece to releasing the 10.2 nightlies was a complete settings restructure. Items have been moved, new categories created and code has been cleaned. This also means that in some of the reorganization, features we removed to be cleaned, re-coded and eventually re-implemented. If your favorite feature appears to have vanished, fret not, its being worked on and is likely to make a reappearance in the future.
In the mean time, those of you running 10.2 should (hopefully) find that the settings menu is no longer a mass of features categorized as 'System', and instead more neatly organized into logical categories. Again, this is an active code branch, which means things may further shift, move, or rename until we feel it is perfect – and then likely mess with it some more.
"Why not [my device]? Why does CM prefer [insert OEM]?"
We don't play games with favorite OEMs or devices. The order is fairly straight-forward: build for what each maintainer uses on a day to day basis, expand and leverage that work for similar devices/chipsets, and move on from there. Being a 'Nexus' has no bearing on first or last, nor does being a Samsung or an HTC or anything else.
"So where does my device stand?"
You can check the current roster on our Github repo for 'Hudson'. To clarify how its read, we will use 'mako' as the example:
Designated as "cm_mako-userdebug cm-10.2″ this text means that on a nightly basis build the 10.2 "userdebug" (the one we release to you currently) build of mako aka the Nexus 4. Items with "10.1" get the 10.1 branch, "jellybean" the 10.0 branch, and "ics" the 9.x branch. Devices with "W" after the branch receive one build a week.
In essence, our build machines read this list and designations, and build. When a device is ready for the next code branch, it's maintainer issues a request to the repository to change the designation. If your device hasn't been changed yet it means your maintainer, who by the way you trust to make good decisions on the behalf of your device, believes it is not yet ready.
New Devices
This week we merged in some brand new devices, including the HTC One X+ International (enrc2b), Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini (serranoltexx) and the Samsung Galaxy SII Epic Touch 4G D710 (d710) – which is a really long name.
A gift from Equiso
We got contacted by the folks from Equiso asking if we'd be interested in working on CM support for their Smart TV Android-on-a-stick device. With all the excitement and ideas Chromecast has drummed up, we thought it'd be a fun idea to see what we could come up with. At the least, this is a new form factor and challenge for us, and we like challenges.
Koush has his in hand and is aiming to go big – create an Open Chromecast stack, checkout his post to give him your thoughts!
AndysThreads Preorder Ends tonight!
The window for placing orders is between now and midnight EST tonight. As a reminder, everyone who participates is automatically entered into a pool to receive a free CM hoodie!
Got a suggestion for a topic you'd like to see in the next round-up? Let us know in the comments below. All device/port requests will be ignored.

Many might be disappointed that the Montreal Canadiens are facing the Ottawa Senators instead of the Toronto Maple Leafs in the first round, but hockey fans nationwide need not worry. They can still meet this postseason.
Granted, that in part involves the Leafs upsetting the Big, Bad Bruins, but weirder things have happened…like both the Leafs and Habs making the playoffs to begin with. Well, let's be honest: even just the Leafs.
Still, for this supposed dream matchup to become a reality, the Habs also have their end of the bargain to hold up as well. Despite what most fans would like to believe, a first-round victory is far from guaranteed.
While analysts agree the Habs match up way better against the Sens than the much bigger rival Leafs, look at the facts:
- The Sens have just gotten Norris Trophy-winning defenseman Erik Karlsson back from injury. The Habs have P.K. Subban, who might win a Norris Trophy this year.
- The Sens are without their No. 1 center, Jason Spezza. The Habs don't have a No. 1 center at all.
- The Sens have a No. 1 goaltender who up until recently was just a backup. The Habs have a No. 1 goalie who recently began playing like a backup.
All that being said, the Habs are undeniably favorites in this series, and here are the five key ways they will move on to the second round:

Most Important Under Reported Story of the Year
My favorite living historian Victor Davis Hanson puts his finger on one of the most important developments of the past few years which has received little press coverage:
There is a revolution going on America. But it is not part of the tea party movement or the loud Occupy Wall Street protests.
Instead, massive new reserves of gas, oil and coal are being discovered almost everywhere in the United States, due to revolutionary methods of exploration and exploitation such as fracking and horizontal drilling. Current prices of over $100 a barrel make even complex efforts at recovery enormously profitable.
There were always known to be additional untapped reserves of oil and gas in the petroleum-rich Gulf of Mexico, off America's shores, and in the American West and Alaska. But even the top energy experts never imagined just how vast was the energy there — or beneath far more unlikely places like South Dakota, Pennsylvania, Ohio and New York. Some studies suggest the United States has now expanded its known potential gas and oil reserves tenfold.
The strategic and economic repercussions of these new finds are staggering, and remind us how a once energy-independent and thereby confident American economy soared to world dominance in the early 20th century.
America will soon again be able to supply all of its own domestic natural gas needs — and perhaps for the next 90 years at present rates of consumption. We have recently become a net exporter of refined gas and diesel fuel, and already have cut imported oil from OPEC countries by 1 million barrels per day.
Go here to read the rest. The implications of this development to the US economically and strategically are immense, and I do not think this has penetrated through to the general public yet.
20 Responses to Most Important Under Reported Story of the Year
Is there a moral element to this story that needs discussing? One commentator makes this observation: "Evidence has mounted that earthquakes in Arkansas have resulted from using this method of gas recovery. Polluted water has harmed animals as well as humans. Some fracking has caused exploding wells."
Should Catholics urge caution on this type of oil exploration and recovery?
There is also a virtually limitless supply of thorium and uranium available to fuel our civilization for tens of thousands of years, all without pollution.
World Uranium Reserves by James Hopf, Nuclear Engineer
Increase In Thorium Reserves: Alternative To Uranium For Nuclear Power Generation by Linton Levy
Quotation therefrom:
"The U.S.G.S.' latest estimate of 915,000 tons of thorium ore reserves within the claims held by Thorium Energy, Inc., in Idaho and Montana compares to the previously published U.S.G.S. estimate of 160,000 tons for the entire United States as stated in the U.S.G.S. Mineral Commodity Summaries 2008.
"The October 2008 U.S.G.S. update states that, 'The thorium and rare-earth deposits in the region were initially studied by the U.S. Geological Survey (Sharp and Cavender, 1962; Staatz, 1972, 1979) and others, including the Idaho Bureau of Mines and Geology, Idaho Energy Reserves Company (IERCO), a subsidiary of Idaho Power Company, the Idaho Geological Survey (Gillerman and others, 2003), Tenneco Oil Company, the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission, and the U.S. Bureau of Mines. Total reserves of the deposits are 915,000 tons of ore.'
"This confirms that Thorium Energy, Inc.'s total Idaho and Montana thorium resources and reserves are the largest in the United States. Furthermore, the company is not aware of any larger, professionally documented reserves of high-grade thorium anywhere in the world. According to the current U.S.G.S. statistics, the next highest estimates of thorium ore are for Australia with 300,000 tons and India with 290,000 tons. It must be noted that the Idaho and Montana deposits are of high-grade thorite and thorianite rather than low-grade disseminated deposits as in India, for example. "
By the way: ALL – I say again, ALL – of the uranium-233 generated by neutron-induced transmutation of fertile thorium-232 IS fissile, whereas in nature only 0.7% of uranium is fissile uranium-235 with the rest being fertile uranium-238 (from which plutonium-239 can be produced, again by neutron-induced transmutation). AND thorium-232 is 30 times more plentiful than uranium.
We do NOT lack for fuel in these United States. We do NOT have an energy crisis. We have a crisis of political corruption and corporate socialism (otherwise known as croney capitalism).
PS, Dr. Bernard Cohen of the University of Pittsburg, PA wrote a book in 1990 entitled, "The Nuclear Energy Option." There is some dated material, but it's well worth reading. The reader may find it here (be patient as you navigate through the sub-links to individual chapters and sections within this important work):
And at this web link Dr. Cohen discusses a number of topics relating to radiation, risk, radioactive waste, etc.:
Again, there are lots of sub-links, and lots of good information. Now don't believe me. I am a grunt nuclear engineer / technician (with emphasis on the Neanderthal "grunt") having only 30 plus years of training and experience. Rather, believe a bona fide Doctor of Science who knows what he's talking about. And put on your thinking cap. 😉
The most obviously ignored story of the year on conservative blogs will be the news today that the Obama Administration has blocked the sale of Plan B to minors.
"…the Obama Administration has blocked the sale of Plan B to minors."
God allowed King Manasseh to be dragged away into capitivity with a hook through his nose by the Assyrians for his crimes of sexual perversion and murder.
Obama had better watch his step, because that same God is watching him, and unlike men, God does not change in how He views and punishes evil.
RR: Actually the regime did not block the sale of the abortion pill to minors, they not end the requirement to first obtain from an abortionist a written prescription, which can be electronically forwarded, in nanoseconds, from the baby murder facility.
Is that newsworthy because it serves the party of class hatred?
Here is my nominee for most important under-reported story. Hundreds killed as Obama and Holder arm Mexican drug gangs to advance the anti-freedom agenda.
Catholics should applaud Obama's decision if for no other reason than to encourage more such decisions. But the other side has a point when they say that too many people don't know what they're talking about. Plan B is a contraception, not an abortion pill. It prevents ovulation and fertilization. There is no person to abort. You don't need a prescription for it. Currently, it's available to anyone 17 or older. It was recommended that it be made available on the shelves to anyone. The Administration decided against that and the left is universally criticizing Obama for it.
"Plan B is a contraception, not an abortion pill. It prevents ovulation and fertilization."
Still reasonable concern that it prevents implantation of the fertilized ovuum and thus acts as an abortifacient. The medical court is still out on that but one cannot in truth categorically make the statement that it only prevents ovulation and fertilization.
All this "pomp and circumstances" is based on the fact that Obama-worshiping MSM journolistas define news as that which serves Obama and the agenda.
The news serves the party ergo it is truth. BARF
"Rest assured that whatever crumbs of moderation he tosses to the public will be rescinded if he wins re-election."
Donald, you were more optimistic about the chances of his losing previously. Has that changed?
"Back in January of 80, by comparison, Jimmy Carter was ahead of Reagan and the rest of the Republican field by a sizeable margin in polls taken at that time."
I suspect that it was the Iranian hostage crisis (particularly the failed rescue mission) and the Administration's response (or lack of it) to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan that really did Carter in. Both of those developments were still pretty new in January '80. Only after they had dragged on without resolution for months did they become fatal to the Carter campaign. The persistently poor economy with its high inflation and fuel prices hadn't been enough, on its own, to take down Carter at that point.
Likewise, I am not sure that the poor economy we have today will be sufficient to defeat Obama or to overcome the instinct of many people to stick with the devil they know over the one they don't. It will take some kind of new domestic or foreign crisis (or both) to truly seal his electoral fate. And even then, never underestimate the power of the GOP to shoot itself in the foot. After all, Don, you were equally confident last year that Gov. Quinn was "electoral dead meat" and we are stuck with him still.
"I believe you agreed with me at the time"
Yep, I did, so my political prognostication abilities are far from infallible. Also, the 2010 Illinois governor's race vote was extremely close and I would not be surprised if the POPULAR vote in the POTUS turns out to also be very close (1-2 percentage points).
If Obama does win reelection it will be by the skin of his teeth in both the popular vote and in the Electoral College.
If Obama wins, then this country is doomed. It cannot recover from another four years of Obama.
First, the destruction and havoc he is wreaking on the moral sensibilities of the nation is intolerable. Yes, the infection of post modern neo-paganism existed long before his rise to power, but he has single handedly raised it to a national epidemic. Open homosexuality in the military and exportation of the abortion culture abroad are simply a few of the many examples.
Second, elimination of access to cheap energy (which as I recall is the topic of this particularly bog entry) destroys the ability to fuel a highly technical society. Obama has opposed energy from fossil fuels (with more and more EPA regulations, and more and more denials of access to drill) while touting useless green energy schemes, giving these schemes hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars (e.g., Solyndra), and has appointed the most anti-nuclear person yet to be Chairman of the US NRC – Gregory Jackzo – who himself has declared that there will be a slow down in licensing new nuclear build. Imagine that! Why would you appoint to the Chairmanship of the US NRC a man who worked for Representative Ed Markey against the continued operation of the Vermont Yankee and Pilgrim Nuclear Power Stations, and who worked for Senator Harry Reid against the Yucca Mountain spent fuel geologic repository? Why? Yes, there is a whole history behind this that I can spend pages describing, but the bottom line is this (in my opinion): Obama is anti-American and hates anything that's truly American.
PS, when Clinton was President, he appointed a university particle physicist – Shirley Ann Janckson – as US NRC Chairman. The whole tone and tenor of the NRC changed from being a regulator ensuring safe OPERATION to being a regulator intent on shutdown. She even gave a speech once that she envisioned 50% of our nukes would be shutdown and replaced with natural gas. Imagine how the CEOs for natural gas reacted! Then Bush became President, Nils Diaz was NRC Chairman, and Bush started GNEP and we begain talking about a rennaisance. Then when it became inevitable Obama was going to get elected, the NSSS companies (GE, Westinghouse, etc) began layoffs and Jackzo ascended to the nuclear throne. Now here we are. Plenty of fuel – fossil and nuclear – and no way to use it.
If we do not get Obama out of office, then we are doomed. I now have to get back to nukes'R us.

"Pickup slap" exercise in D7
It can really help your "groove" to fill in some percussive rhythm in your basslines, especially when playin unaccompagnied – ie starting a song/groove with bass alone
Basically you're emulating the snare drum on 2 and 4 by slappin the string/strings over the pickup
Im exaggerating a bit in the slow sections, overemphasizing the slaps.
Support Playbassnow.com by downloading the video, audio and TAB in one package HERE
Hello Marlowe! UM I have one question…after you slap pickup how many ghost notes you play…tried to slow it down but cant figure:( …is it possible to get it in transcribe maybe:)
is pickup slap different from the slap that uses the thumb.? im confused.. by the way, nice groove..
>> you're the one that should "try";-)<<
Haha, funny you understood it that way – my intention was to address and encourage other bass players, not the master himself, of course 😉
Good, that i dont have to try it:-D
Anyway, best wishes from Germany! (next UEFA EURO Champion)
It's such a fun for me to play this one, maybe because I never played this way before. As u wrote above, I dont miss a clicking device or whatever.
I also like the different sound of the slap and the muted note, although it sounds good too to play this one in DT technique. Give it a try.
Sure it does, would sound good with a pick too, but this is a fingerstyle exercise, and you're the one that should "try";-)
PS:More pickup slap exercises, please.
It`svery difficult to get the groove
Luxury! Not everything is easy, just consider yourself lucky with video examples!
When i was starting out I a had an old turntable i put on halfspeed.. Luxury!!
(quotes from Monty Python;-))
very nice 🙂
Ah! Good stuff.

b) is a binomial, the expected number is np, where n=800 and p is obtained in (a)
For (a), there is other information that is missing, such as other people's top cards and how many players.
BUT if you just want to know the chance of a pairs it would be 3/51.
The first card can be anything and the chance you have a match on the second would be 3/51=1/17.
