Reviews for this host's other properties
A very good location with the metro station right on the corner. Very practical when being in Paris.
Appartment was very nice and cosy and the view just as nice (fourth level/ no lift though).
Too bad you can't park in front of the building. You can only station for a little while (to leave luggage for example). Therefore, check your preference for parking (if you are with the car) beforehand.
Regards, Oana and Hans Schippers (the Netherlands)
Apart from aggravation upon arrival when I was kept waiting 45 minutes in spite of having clearly made an appointment with the host, all was fine.
We actually stayed in a different studio since there was a mix-up of reservations. However, the hosts were very nice and the new Studio was even bigger and nicer.
The location of the apartment is very convenient and it's easy to get around from here.
However, the overall price-performance ration is pretty bad.
It is superfically clean but every corner is very dustry, especially around the bed!!! The shower was cold or even ice cold at most times, only by the end of the week I stayed here I got some warm water!!!
And also the contact and information prior to my stay could have been a little better. I never received any feedback for my complaints!
So looking at the price for the 7 days I stayed and what I got for it I'm sure there are better places to stay at!
the apartment is placed well for visiting Paris - it is possible to walk from there to see the City - but public tranportation is also very ggod from there. Everything you need in terms of restaurant ect nin the area.
The welcoming was not very good. We waited outside to be received but no one came to see us. It was not possble to reach jeremy by phone - and his assistant was not to confident with directing us over the phone. But at the end we found the place - and it the place was good.
I had a very pleasant stay in the apartment in July 2015. A fantastic view on the busy Paris life. Being on the fourth floor is a lot of climbing of course but you get used to it. Toilet and bathroom were small but good quality, The stove might need replacement on the ling run but it did work properly. So I will certainly come back to this apartment with a supermarket across the street and restaurants around the corner as well as the metro station within 100 meters.
Excellent apartment, comfortable for one or two people, well equipped and well located. No problem, just the opposite.
Highly recommended
Excelente departamento, cómodo para una o dos personas, bien equipado y muy bien ubicado. Ningún problema, todo lo contrario.
Muy recomendable
We got to Paris, the Anissa senorita with another lady were waiting at the entrance of the building and were greeted very warmly and kindly. We were told and showed us all the features department. It is very nice, very complete, very comfortable and very clean. Both the building as well as the neighborhood is very quiet and safe sites. The service of towels, bath towels, sheets and quilts, impeccable. Whenever we had a question, we communicated with Miss Anissa us and she always answered promptly. It is easy access to the metro, other public transport, supermarkets, restaurants, etc .... Thanks for the good service provided is one of the great days we spent in Paris. Hug
Llegamos a Paris, la senorita Anissa junto con otra señora nos estaban esperando en la entrada del edificio y nos recibieron muy cordialmente y amablemente. Nos comentaron y nos mostraron todas las características del departamento. El mismo es muy bonito, muy completo, muy cómodo y muy limpio. Tanto el edificio como así también el barrio son sitios muy tranquilos y seguros. El servicio de toallas, toallones, sabanas y acolchados, impecables. Cada vez que teníamos una duda, nos comunicábamos con la señorita Anissa y ella siempre nos respondía a la brevedad. Es de fácil acceso al metro, a otros transportes públicos, a supermercados, a restaurantes, etc.... Gracias porque el buen servicio brindado forma parte de los excelentes días que pasamos en Paris. Abrazo
All right, even the passage chiavi.Solo two things, the couch in the living room it was impossible to use it to sleep for an adult and the furniture of the terrace should be changed to be able to enjoy better.
Tutto bene, anche il passaggio chiavi.Solo due cose, il divano in soggiorno era impossibile usarlo per dormire per un adulto e i mobili del terrazzo dovrebbero essere cambiati per poterne usufruire meglio.
It was excellent, nine days in Paris in this cozy apartment.
Domenico owner, has decorated with perfect taste, from the first moment we met and in our house.
Jeremy and Anissa, responsible for leasing and the whole deal with the tenant, gave us all the help and all the necessary explanations.
The setting, perfect, a neighborhood with all kinds of shops (see nearby streets), the subway stop three minutes from home and with three lines allowed us to move around Paris very quickly.
But above all, this apartment offers comfort, a good bed to rest after a hard days exploring the city, a pristine cleanliness, a fully equipped kitchen, a living room with everything you need (tv, fiber, satellite, DVD DVD / music) etc.
Thanks, Domenico, Jeremi and as Anissa thank you very much.
Fue inmejorable, nueve días en Paris en este acogedor apartamento.
Su propietario Domenico, lo tiene decorado con un gusto perfecto, desde el primer momento nos encontramos como en nuestra casa.
Jeremy y Anissa, responsables del arrendamiento y todo el trato con el inquilino, nos brindaron toda su ayuda y todas las explicaciones necesarias.
El entorno, perfecto, un barrio con todo tipo de comercios (mirar calles próximas), la parada del metro a tres minutos de casa y con tres líneas nos permitía movernos por Paris con mucha rapidez.
Pero por encima de todo, la comodidad que brinda este apartamento, una buena cama para descansar después de unas duras jornadas descubriendo la ciudad, una limpieza impoluta, una cocina perfectamente equipada, un salón con todo lo necesario (tv, fibra, satélite, reproductor de DVD/música) etc.
Gracias, Domenico, Jeremi y como no muchas gracias Anissa.

With the mass exodus of stars on defense, plus a couple going on offense.... 1-9-2012 was a program killer for LSU. This was the domino effect that having a retarded coach waste a chance at winning a national title will get you.
Hopefully Miles decides he's burnt out on coaching football and decides to resign on his own soon. We need a guy that prepares his team and gameplan more effectively. Its time to roll the dice on a new man in charge
Miles has the best record in the history of this school. No coach ever would satisfy you.
do we have the most players declaring for the draft?
Hopefully Miles decides he's burnt out on coaching football and decides to resign on his own soon
Wow you are such a dumb frick. The amount of dumbasses in this thread is amazing. We currently have a 6-8 recruiting class in the country depending on who you ask so we are going to continue to have talent. Juniors leave early when they are great football players. Its amazing how many of you stupid fricks can't comprehend that.

30 Day Ride Out Guarantee With this Surfboard - Don't like it? swap it
Pukas The Link surfboard 5ft 7 FCS II - White
Product Details
Matt has worked with the guys at Olatu and Pukas for many years, he's surfed a lot of the local waves and mingled with the locals, "there has always been a link between myself and Pukas. So after almost 20 years of travelling the Basque Country, and shaping at PUKAS, we finally made our link official and have designed this collaboration model…. The Link. We thought it would be fun to make this link official and do a special little project…a special board. Specifically for small punchy beach breaks."
The Link is a super fun and skatey shortboard but with dialled in performance as well. The Link is definitely not a cruiser, or a low rocker groveller, but a board with some proper rocker and concaves. This is a board for a good surfer to chuck around, smack the lip and generally surf radically in small clean beach break conditions
Matt has been at the forefront of the wider and shorter board revolution and has always tried to execute this with performance in mind, not just fashion or retro. Matt started with his ShortRound and made it a little more racy. The nose was pulled in and more tail rocker was added so the board could fit into faster and more dumpy waves. To work with the rocker, Matt added a lot more concave from the centre back through the fins. The concave gets up and going and fast, as well as increases rail curve, allowing for quick radical direction changes.
When the Link is sized properly, with the right amount of volume, it will provide a wide range of riders, from a 5ft 2 rip-stick, for a young ripper to punt airs and break the tail out, right up to 40 litters of Domestic high performance carving and snapping to keep the middle aged bloke with kids and limited time in the water.
Don't forget you can also order a customised version of this board choosing your exact dims, fin set up and fin system, check out our customizer service at Boardshop right now. All you need to do is pump in the details and pay a £100 deposit with the balance due when we send you the board, average build time is 6-8 weeks. Also quite a few of the chaps here surf this board, or have surfed it plus we talk to lots of surfers and take on their feedback so we are here to chat about this or any other board just give us a call on (44) 01243 674250
Boardshop is stoked to be a key partner for Pukas surfboards across Europe and beyond. The staff here have surfed pretty much every board in the range at some time or another and we speak to surfers from all over the world and get their feedback on how the boards perform in all sorts of conditions so we're well placed to talk about all aspects of Pukas Surfboards. We're happy to consider trading in your old board against a new board, so If you have any questions about this we'd be delighted to answer them and advise on any potential board choices or enquiries you might have, just drop us an email to firstname.lastname@example.com or call us on 0044 (0) 1243 674250.

Important changes in Mexico - driven by President Enrique Peña Nieto's administration - are occurring through the country: In addition to measures proposed in the tax bill presented last September 8th the new head of the Large Taxpayer section of the SAT (Oscar Molina) announced that Mexican authorities have started taking actions on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) under a pre-defined action plan, through which they intend to apply anti-avoidance measures in respect of certain business restructurings, particularly concerning supply chain conversions (better known in Mexico as maquila conversions).
The target of such action plan is MNEs that have restructured to conduct manufacturing and distribution operations in Mexico, while potentially off-shoring intangible assets or to shift profits away from the country.

Royal Conservatory of Music Grand Opening
September 25, 2009 | KPMB Architects
The mission of the Royal Conservatory is to develop human potential through leadership in music and the arts." – Dr. Peter Simon, President, The Royal Conservatory
The new TELUS Centre for Performance and Learning is the final jewel in the crown of Toronto's Cultural Renaissance, a phenomenon that was catalysed in the slipstream of the Bilbao effect. It also fulfils a 20-year dream to build a new home for Canada's premier music and arts educator, The Royal Conservatory (RCM). Kuwabara Payne McKenna Blumberg Architects (KPMB), under the direction of Marianne McKenna, has committed to helping the RCM to realize the vision which was set forth in 1991 with its award-winning Master Plan.
Conceived as 'a series of great rooms' for music, the TELUS Centre for Performance and Learning manifests The Royal Conservatory's ambitious dream for a unique hybrid facility. The centrepiece of the project is the 1,135-seat Koerner Hall, which signals the expanded role of the RCM as a cultural destination for performance. With its distinctive interior and world-calibre acoustics, Koerner Hall will create a recognizable icon for the RCM, locally and internationally.
The project also includes three tiers of glass fronted lobbies overlooking Philosopher's Walk, back-of-house areas for performers, the café at the ground floor level, and an installation of unique antique musical instruments donated by Michael Koerner. Each level of the lobbies – the Leslie & Anna Dan Gallerias – offers magnificent views of the University of Toronto and the City, and distinctive spaces in which to host a variety of functions related to concerts, conferences and special events. The triple height orchestra lobby features limestone floors and is designed to accommodate 200 for seated dinners. A glass-enclosed room at the second lobby level, in memory of Hin Shiu Hung, will be a much sought after venue for meetings and private entertaining.
Large light-filled vocal and instrumental studios, directly above the back of house and below the lobbies, wrap Koerner Hall and re-enforce the complementarity of performance and learning that is the mandate of the RCM.
Defining a New Cultural Precinct for Toronto
The project occupies an important site in midtown Toronto at the threshold of the University of Toronto's downtown campus and integrates Philosopher's Walk, a landscape pedestrian route that runs north and south linking Bloor Street to Hoskin Avenue. The design strategically participates in forming a new cultural precinct for the City, along with its neighbour the Royal Ontario Museum and the Gardiner Museum around the corner on Queen's Park.
Revaluing History
The project also involved the progressive restoration of the RCM's heritage site, Ihnatowycz Hall, including the restoration of the exterior heritage fabric and the 237-seat Mazzoleni Hall. Although the new TELUS Centre is substantive, its siting and massing is deferential to the 19th century heritage buildings on Bloor Street which have housed the RCM since 1963. The contemporary architecture emphasizes transparency and accessibility as a dynamic counterpoint to the polychromatic masonry walls, and elevated entrance on Bloor Street.
The space between the historic and new building is enclosed to create a skylit pedestrian court linking the Bloor Street entrance to Koerner Hall and the Dan Gallerias. The glass and steel structure of the new addition generates a dialogue between old and new, and celebrates the restored polychromatic facades of the heritage buildings. Small balconies project through the façade of the historic south wall and mark the half landings of the original wood staircase of Ihnatowycz Hall.
Academic – Professional Conservatory
A key objective was to maximize flexibility to integrate new technology and adapt to changes in both the RCM's professional and community programs. The new additions include 43 new teaching and practice studios, the renovation of Ihnatowycz Hall (1881) and the new 150-seat Conservatory Theatre, a rehearsal space designed to accommodate a range of functions, from music performances, special events, and classroom activities. In scale and proportion the Theatre replicates the acoustic quality and stage size of the main Koerner Hall to prepare students for live performance.
Overall, the TELUS Centre emphasizes the primacy of acoustics to directly support the RCM's educational mission of developing human potential through leadership in arts education and its vision of fostering creativity through its innovative academic programs.
Koerner Hall – the Heart of The Royal Conservatory
The heart of the project is Koerner Hall, the 1,135-seat concert hall named after donors Michael and Sonja Koerner. The signature element is the 'veil' of twisting oak 'strings' which forms the backdrop for the chorus at the first balcony level, then hovers over the stage below the fixed acoustic canopy, extending into and over the hall at the technical balcony level. The strings act as part of the acoustic reflection when under the canopy, and then become acoustically transparent over the rest of the space. Balcony fronts and seats, as well as the hall floors are natural oak, contrasted against undulating black plaster panels that line the hall and reflect the dark stone of the exterior cladding.
Developed in concert with Sound Space Design and Anne Minors Performance Consultants, Koerner Hall is designed to achieve an N1 acoustic rating, and is ideal for classical music, jazz, world music, amplified music, lectures and film. The design is based on the classic 'shoe-box' shape of some of the world's finest concert halls, and features two balcony tiers above the main orchestra level, and a third technical balcony. Juxtaposed against the shoebox form of the hall, the wood balcony fronts and curving walls create a warm, sculpted 'liner' within the rectangular form. Sightlines and adjustable acoustics allow for a broad range of concert types including live televised broadcasts.

BE[a]ST Albums of 2010 (part 2)
Massive Attack - Heliogoland (Virgin)
released: February 8, 2010
Seemingly oft-forgot as a release of this year, being that a super early leak in late late '09 caused the Bristol duo to push up the official outing of Heligoland, Massive Attack's fifth studio album sat sweetly amongst my most played. With a generous serving of guest vocalists, names like Damon Albarn and Horace Andy strengthened this disc, but it's Mazzy Star's sweetie, Hope Sandoval, who comes out swinging on the super sensual and album standout track, Paradise Circus. This album would rank higher, if every track on the release was that song. On repeat.
Big Boi - Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty (Purple Ribbon / Def Jam)
released: July 5, 2010
It's almost impossible to believe that this is Big Boi's first solo offering. After a successful run of releases with Outkast, the ATLien finally got his shit together (the debut was promised for many a year) and threw out a bundle of seeds that blossomed into a garden of great rap tracks. Corralling a number of his closest friends (and even some new ones like Yealwolf) Boi done did the damn thing with a solid and slick flow that won't soon move off our most played / recently loved lists. Boo, I got a back up plan to the back up plan to back up my back up plan. Wordsmithing at its finest.
Dominique Young Unique - Domination (ArtJam Records)
released: June 10, 2010
Shut up and listen. That's what Dominique Young Unique implores you to do. Also, that's precisely the phrase I'm spitting at you in the event you say "oh hell naw, how dare you include a free mixtape on your be[a]st albums list!" Well guess what: Domination is in part better than most full lengths put out this year, and in whole, one of the finest flowing selections from a more than unknown we've heard in too long. She's a "gangster hard hitter out of 8 - 1 - 3" and she might just accomplish the world over like the title implies. Total domination at the tender age of 19.
Kelis - Flesh Tone (will.i.am music / Interscope)
released: May 14, 2010
Flesh Tone serves as Kelis' "enough is enough is enough, I will survive, it's (not) raining men" collection of anthemic works. And while it's not disco, it IS dance... and that's precisely what the husky honey demands you do via her fifth studio recording. Snagging production work from Jean Baptiste, David Guetta and Benny Benassi amongst others, the former rap-sing-song artist went through a label drop, divorce and dietary specialist classes (she's a chef y'all!) and came out on the other side with her truest tones yet. Emancipate yourself, indeed!
Trentemøller - Into the Great Wide Yonder (In My Room)
released: May 28, 2010
If every song recorded this year (and I mean EVERY song that was created, produced, put out, sing, sang and sung, etc...) sounded like Trentemøller's ...Even Though You're With Another Girl, I would have been crying nonstop for 365 straight days. And then probably some more. But this doesn't mean that the Portishead-esque single carries and bears all the weight of the Danish musician. Equally pleasing cuts like Silver Surfer, Ghost Rider, Go! and Shades of Marble anchor a seamless wall of sound from the opening sounds to the closing choruses of his sophomore offering.
ceo - White Magic (Modular)
released: July 2, 2010
It really should be no surprise that a Swede pops up on my list of BE[a]ST Albums, considering my penchant for all things Scandinavian and sugary sweet. Enter ceo, with his debut album, White Magic, and while we already knjow and love Eric Berglund (formerly of The Tough Alliance) and his tall body of work, this solo effort whisked us away to a land of pillow fights and playful arrangements, all the while maintinaing a modern day relevance and sustainability. Singles such as come with me and illuminata are immediate album standouts, but it's the happy handclappers like love and do what you will that remain my most oft-repeated. Queue applause now.
The Hundred in the Hands - The Hundred in the Hands (Warp)
released: September 21, 2010
You might cry foul or even go so far as to call me a beast of a biased nature since Eleanore and Jason have oft been spotted sounding off on my radio show, or even found themselves on the receiving end of a rad amount of praise, but when talking about one of my justifiably most-played, praised and self-popularized releases of the year, it's without a shred of doubt The Hundred in the Hands' freshman self-titled disc that wins out. The Warp signees compile 11 tracks ranging from pop to new wave, dark disco and goth dance. This solid effort is a seamless listen from start to finish, whether used as filler or front of house music, and the break that hits at the 3:05 mark of lead track Young Aren't Young is enough to make you want to keep hitting repeat.
Robyn - Body Talk (Cherrytree / Interscope)
released: June 14, September 6 and November 22, 2010
One of our most lauded and loved beasts through the course of the year was none other than Robyn, and with every good reason. She talked, not only with her body, but with her unique release schedule, in which 2 smaller "EPs" lead to the final chapter in a terrificly trifectal tour of tunes. Each compilation had it's powerful and passionate moments, from the emotionally-destructive and equally beautiful Dancing On My Own, to singles like Hang With Me and Indestructible, other cuts proved just as poignant without the official stamps on 'em (see: None of Dem and Don't Fucking Tell Me What to Do). Overall, one of the most brilliant moves from one of modern music's brightest stars.
Crystal Castles - Crystal Castles II (Fiction Records)
released: April 23, 2010
Don't confuse this release with the one of the same name as debuted by Crystal Castles two years ago. Sure it's all a bit head-scratching, what with a pair of discs under identical monikers being offered up, but don't mistake one for the other. The sophomore album from the Canadian duo soars much higher, louder and intrinsically more powerful than the freshman first. From the immediately affecting sounds of Baptism, to the, dare we say it, sexy and sultry songs like Celestica, Suffocation and Pap Smear, this release is one you can easily thrash out or make out to. Believe me. I've done both and each experience ended with the most smashing and beastly of results.
Sleigh Bells - Treats (Mom + Pop Recordings / N.E.E.T.)
released: May 11, 2010
11 tracks in 32 minutes and fight music you can dance to. Enough said.
mp3: Sleigh Bells x Soulja Boy - Donk Rhythm (Immuzikation Blend)

English soccer team's win this weekend would score big payoff for Rochester owner
Rochester sports entrepreneur Andy Appleby's investment in an English professional soccer team is on the cusp of paying off.
Derby County, owned since 2008 by a U.S. consortium headed by Appleby, will play the Queens Park Rangers at 10 a.m. Saturday EST at Wembley Stadium in London for promotion to the Premier League — and its lucrative TV money.
The game will air live in the U.S. on cable and satellite channel beIN Sports, which has the American broadcast rights to several overseas soccer leagues. The winner will be promoted to the Premier League and is guaranteed $200 million in new revenue via the 20-team soccer association's enormous global television contracts.
The new cash would be reinvested in the club, Appleby said, not siphoned as profit by ownership. English soccer clubs usually operate at a loss, including Derby.
"We have the basis of a Premier League squad, I don't think we need to make hasty changes," Derby CEO Sam Rush told BBC Sport on May 15. "We are looking to add to the group, but I don't think we need to rush anything. If we can strengthen in due course then, of course, we will."
Derby is in the promotion playoff after securing third place in the second-tier Football League Championship. The top two clubs in the league are automatically promoted to the Premier League (Leicester City and Burnley this season), and the next four clubs in the standings play for the third and final promotion slot.
Derby, known as The Rams, dispatched Brighton & Hove Albion in two playoff matches earlier this month for a spot in the game at Wembley. Queens Park beat Wigan Athletic to advance.
More than 38,000 Rams fans have bought tickets to Saturday's game, according to a report today in the Derby Telegraph. More than 80,000 total are expected to attend.
Appleby, a former Detroit Pistons executive, is Derby County F.C. Ltd.'s chairman. He fronted the group that paid $100 million — and assumed $25 million in debt — for the club in January 2008. He is owner of Rochester-based General Sports and Entertainment LLC, a sports marketing and services firm he opened in 1998.
Derby last played in the Premier League, for one season, in 2007-08.
The Rams finished the 2013-14 regular season with 25 victories, 10 draws and 11 losses, good for 85 points in the standings — most in the club's history.
Derby has averaged 25,000 fans per game this season at 33,597-seat iPro Stadium, good for second in the league. Premier League teams this season averaged 36,456 per game.
Derby, founded in 1884, plays a 46-game schedule. The Rams' only top-level championships were in 1972 and 1975.


text: About 10 days ago I installed new packages of bees. All the queens are released from their cages and the hives are active as the weather has been nice. The packages were put into hives with drawn comb so things should get off to a quicker start that way. I want to replace the queens in at least a couple of the packages with Hygenic queens. So the question is how long do I wait for the hive to get established before replacing the queen? Also, if you know a proven source for good hygenic queens I would appreciate the information. Thanks!

Combine the power of a razor saver that actually extends the life of your razor, with a moisturizing shave cream, and the stick exfoliant that keeps ingrown hairs at bay and you've got a shaving trifecta of YES. Love the buffer stick best.
Love the stick for stopping ingrown hairs. Shave cream is OK. And the oil is great for my clippers. Great package.

A few months back, openly gay Rhode Island House Speaker Gordon Fox backed away from a same-sex marriage bill, which he believed would not pass, and threw his support behind civil unions.
Arley-Rose Torsone, who is best known for her crackerjack design work for AS220, thought the move was disgraceful. And she wanted to do something. So when she arrived at the State House May 3 for a rally in support of gay marriage, she carried a poster of her own making — a man sucking on the cupola of the State House above the slogan: "Rhode Island Blows: Pass Marriage Equality Now."
"The way I can respond," she says, "is by designing something and putting it out in the world."
For Torsone, like many around the state, this is not an abstract political issue, but a personal one. She landed in the hospital when she hurt herself biking a few years ago, but the hospital wouldn't let her partner Morgan Calderini, AS220's print shop manager, visit her because they're not a straight couple.
Last September, Calderini proposed to Torsone, but because gay marriage remains illegal in Rhode Island, they plan to marry this September in Massachusetts, where a state Supreme Court decision legalized gay marriage in 2003.
"We love each other very much," Torsone says, "and when something comes between your love and care for somebody, it's hard not to take it personally."
As designers, the couple has put its skills to work in the gay marriage fight. After the Rhode Island House voted to approve civil unions on May 19 — a compromise measure —Torsone designed a "We Hate Gay People" broadside, which she displayed in AS220's Empire Street windows.
"We were really excited that it had passed," she says, "but it exposed people who didn't want it to go forward. I was sitting at my computer. I had just read the news. And I said people need to know who is against civil rights."
The poster features the title as well as photos and contact info for 11 legislators who voted against the bill. "Contact us to thank us for our work," it reads. (Torsone subsequently learned that one of the legislators may be on the poster wrongly, because she seems to have voted against civil unions because she favored full marriage rights for all.) Torsone says, "I wanted to get people's attention and say that a vote against civil unions is basically saying you're a bigot."
The tone of the broadside is both funny and angry, which for Torsone seems a sort of proportional response to what she hears from opponents of same-sex marriage. "When I read about [opposition to] gay rights," she says, "I feel that voice is coming from an angry place."
Torsone and Calderini will be at PrideFest along South Water Street from noon to 8:30 pm on Saturday, June 18, selling their "Rhode Island Blows" shirts and posters, and representing their Ladyfingers Letterpress, a printshop specializing in custom LGBT wedding invitations.
Torsone continues to work on new designs, which are featured at qtees.bigcartel.com. She's begun making T-shirts for other states, including one featuring the slogan "I got f*!#ed by California and all I got was this lousy T-shirt. Pass marriage equality now." The image: a person wearing a strap-on in the shape of the state of California. Another shirt reads: "If you don't like gay marriage, don't have one."
Torsone's activist business motto: "Promoting equal rights for the LGBT community and making people uncomfortable since 2011."

Missed out on all the sexiness of The Playboy Morning Show? Well, now you can get a weekly recap of what goes on behind studio doors right here on Playboy.com! The Playboy Morning Show is heard weekday mornings on SiriusXM Channel 102 from 7-10 a.m. PST. Here's what happened this week in the Mini Mansion….
Monday morning gorgeous Playboy Cyber Girl-turned-photographer Krystle Lina joined us in-studio. We made her our official Playboy Morning Show photog!

One hot girl taking a picture of another hot girl … not a bad gig!
Our beautiful May RadioMate Paige Chapman stopped by the Mini Mansion Tuesday morning. We love when our RadioMates come in studio and so do the guys who work here! One random guy actually propositioned her near the restrooms. Of course, we had to investigate. Andrea made a composite sketch and we rounded up guys who were nearby so Paige could pick out the guy in a line up. Unfortunately, he is still at large!
Burlesque artist Tali De'Mar and burlesque magician Suzie Malone joined us to talk about their new show Girlesque, which runs every Tuesday starting June 28 at The Federal Bar in North Hollywood. Music, dining, hot girls in minimal clothing…right up our alley.

We finished off the week with our gorgeous February RadioMate Shera Michelle and beauties Katie Mae, Leslie, Sofia, Mandii and Wendi. These sexy girls joined us for some wedding trivia fun with our game of "Something New, Something Borrowed & Something Blue!" Answers had to include the word "new," "borrowed" or "blue" and if the girls got the answers wrong … well, clothing was removed! TURN ON!!!

Walmart gun? Did he mean it won't work? Or only work with a non-union shooter?
I don't think you would have any problems with the CD, they are known for their shotguns. But if you're looking to modify it, add bells and whistles, the Mossberg or Remington would be a better choice.
The only way to know if Laurie would have a problem with a 12-gauge would be to have her shoot one. Know anyone with a shotgun she could try? A 20-gauge should have not-so-bad felt recoil.
Just curious, have you shot a 12-guage with a pistol grip? I had a Mossberg 500 12-gauge that came with one. I put it on, went to the range, shot it, went home, and put the stock right back on. You wouldn't have any problem maneuvering in a residence with a stocked shotgun with an 18-inch barrel.

No Idling Pledge
September 2013
Dear Parent/Caregiver:
With the start of a new school year, the Reading School Department and Reading Climate Advisory Committee (RCAC) are launching a campaign to eliminate unnecessary vehicle idling near our schools. This program will benefit our children's health and environment. Idling cars and buses emit air pollutants, including carbon dioxide that contributes to global warming and fine particles that can trigger asthma attacks. Children are more susceptible to asthma because their lungs are not fully developed and they breathe 50 percent more by volume than adults. Asthma is the most common chronic illness among children. More than 250,000 adults and 110,000 children in Massachusetts have been diagnosed with asthma, the highest reported rate of asthma in the country! We all need to work together to reduce air pollution from vehicles.
Recognizing the vulnerability of children and the fact that school zones can potentially have high levels of exhaust fumes from buses, delivery vehicles and cars dropping off and picking up students, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts enacted legislation (540 CMR 27.00) in 2009 to restrict idling of motor vehicles in the vicinity of school grounds. The Reading School Committee has established Policy EEAJ "Policy Regarding Motor Vehicle Idling on School Grounds", which is attached for your information. As required by the law and policy, a sign citing the regulation has been posted at each school. Additional signs with a gentler reminder to turn off vehicles for the health of children are located in school parking lots and along the streets where parents typically park to wait for their children.
Please comply with the law and help us protect the health of our children and our planet by following these simple guidelines:
- Turn off your vehicle engine when waiting near any school.
- When the weather is very cold or very hot, turn on vehicle in order to run heat or air-conditioning for a total of no more than 1 minute every 15 minutes.
- Keep your engine tuned for efficient fuel combustion and to minimize emissions.
- If possible, have your child(ren) walk or bike to and from school. They'll benefit from the exercise.
- Carpool with your neighbors to reduce the number of cars driving to and from schools
- If you drive to school to pick up young child(ren), please park your vehicle, turn it off, and walk to meet your child(ren).
Please clip and have your child bring the signed pledge to his/her teacher:

BBRY: Buyer for BBM Only Hope for Fairfax Deal, Says Bernstein
The Street today continues to ponder the fate of BlackBerry (BBRY) following Monday's announcement its largest investor, Fairfax Financial Holdings, intends to take the company private at $9 per share.
The stock is off 36 cents, or 4%, at $8.16, reflecting skepticism Fairfax can get the $4.7 billion deal done. A report this morning from Canada's Globe & Mail stated Fairfax's Prem Watsa was soliciting pension funds to contribute equity to his bid.
Bernstein Research's Pierre Ferragu this morning reiterates an Underperform rating on the stock, and a $7 price target, writing "As more details, or lack thereof, emerge about the Fairfax takeover deal, the chances of the deal going through appear grimmer at most." Ferragu notes Fairfax doesn't want to increase its equity stake, already 10%, and so is trying to raise money elsewhere. He finds that "unrealistic."
It's more likely the case Fairfax needs to find a strategic buyer for BlackBerry's "BBM" instant-messaging application, and he doubts that will be achievable, either:
As Fairfax, BlackBerry's largest shareholder, is not willing to commit any more equity, we think it will be unlikely that enough other investors will be joining the bid that sounds like a last chance rescue attempt for Fairfax's stake. The Press reported that Canadian pension funds might be interested in providing the additional equity. We understand there could be some distant interest there, given the specific Canadian twist of the operation and the heavy emotional side of the operation for Canada, but we doubt only one or two funds will feel confident investing that much money in such a risky venture. We doubt any financial institution will demonstrate any interest outside of Canada. Can banks be comfortable with a $3bn debt? We doubt financial sponsors will accept such a deal. The only sizeable collateral the firm can bring against debt is its patent portfolio, which we value between $800m and $1.5bn, and whose book value is anyway $1.7bn. In our view, the only way the deal can go through is with an industry participant with an interest in BBM who will want to use offshore money to support the deal in a favorable tax framework. This scenario remains only remotely possible, as the best interest of such a participant would be to wait and see if Fairfax's tentative deal falls through. A support to Fairfax would be possible only if several industry participants have a keen interest in the venture. Recent press reports suggest this is not the case.

The circus worked for a couple of years until Bart Scott's "Can't Wait!" proclamation and then it all went downhill from there capped with the butt fumble last year. Lol!
With being as overweight and unhealthy he looks, if he is alive in 20 years he certainly won't be coaching.
I hope he does too.......for the sheer comedic value.
I stopped fighting my inner demons. We're on the same side now.
It I simply unrealistic to think that God would give us 2 full decades of laugh out loud entertainment. But hey, ya never know.
No one remembers who came in second.
Why they invested so much in Sanchez, I'll never know. That pick really doomed the franchise.

With Starke Circuit Court Judge Kim Hall subbing, Lenny Dessauer absent, and Pat Dunn in a two week slump, Tom Berg came to the rescue. Taking the "Rollers" high game patch away from Dunn with a 224 game, Berg paced the victors in game two. The WKVI Morning Man attributed his sterling performance to a wrist brace given to him by Dessauer and a pep talk from his mother Judy Collins of Indianapolis.

Vredenburg honored
Longtime Backus city employee Dale Vredenburg received two gift cards from local businesses at Monday's city council meeting in appreciation for his dedication to the city.
Vredenburg spent 27 years working for the city as a part-time police chief and part-time chief of maintenance. He retired as police chief a year ago but continued in maintenance until last September, when he retired.
He has worn many different hats in the city and had many responsibilities, including plowing the city streets and putting up the Christmas lights.
Council member Rae Borst noted that when Vrendenburg plowed, he made sure to plow out the end of residents' driveways as a courtesy.
Although Vredenburg had officially retired in September, he had been gone hunting for the past two city council meetings so he was unable to be honored by the council until Monday.

Kanye West was pulled over by police for speeding this morning
The Stronger rapper, whose girlfriend Kim Kardashian is pregnant with their first child, was stopped by authorities earlier today after they spotted him accelerating down Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles leaving the Chateau Marmont hotel.
Gossip site TMZ reports that West, 35, was also questioned about the tinted windows on his car, however the rapper was let off lightly and given only a caution before the police sent him on his way.
Since announcing his and Kardashian's good news on stage in Atlantic City, West has reportedly agreed to continue filming for his girlfriend's reality TV show Keeping Up With The Kardashians and spin off show Kourtney And Kim Take Miami to show her how much he cares for her.
A source revealed: "Kanye will do anything for Kim. He didn't want to be on at all - or one episode. But he gave in for Kim."
Kardashian - who is said to be around 12 weeks pregnant - has shared how keen she is to find out the sex of their unborn child, but is more focused on it being healthy and well.
She said: "Of course I do want to know [the sex]. I can't find out yet, but I do want to know.
"No preference, I just want a healthy baby."

[quote user="bandwgn86"][quote user="giantyankee1976"]careful guys, Coaches in the mold of Parcells, Belicheck, Coughlin, Ditka aren't popular
says alot about charisma though. Tomlin is a hard-*** and yet the steelers love him.
[/quote]Always thought of Tomlin as a players coach. Either way he's a good coach. Not sure why but I always get killed every time I bring up wanting Fisher to take the reigns after TC is done here.. He seems like a younger version of TC maybe a little better. What do you guys think.[/quote]

Fisher did a great job in TN. I wouldn't mind him, or Cowher. Except for bringing in new systems, they'd pick up nicely after TC's departure in terma of having someone there who knows his stuff. and can lead a team.

[/quote]i agree.. can we start a petition?[/quote]

We can.....but how many sigs are we going to get after TC win the SB this year []

I like Fisher too.......can't help to wonder what Harbough could have done with ourcurrent team had the situation arisen where he was available to us this year

what do ya think?

[/quote] i dont follow College ball so i didnt have an opinion when he was brought up.. looks like a good one. although he's gotta work on the coaches handshake[/quote]

He does have to work on that handshake lol keeep hearing how good a coach he is and so far he's proved it

BTW Bandy did you throw that hot dog at Tiger Woods during that match awhile back? []

Quick Hits: Norv Turner on the Loss to Denver
The San Diego Chargers got defeated by the Denver Broncos 23-30 on Sunday. Head Coach Norv Turner returned to Chargers Park on Monday to addressee the media and in the process, did not provide the same answer as he normally does.
"Like I said after the game, going into to Denver and seeing them again, they're probably the most complete team we've played. I think that they have outstanding team speed and athleticism. They have big-play players in all three phases that can make a difference in the game. I thought that there were a couple of different times during the game where we were going to have opportunities to get back in it and to get to a point where we could potentially tie it or take the lead, but we weren't capable of doing that. Obviously we had the errors, the blocked punt, the sack-fumble and those things keep you from doing that.
Coach Turner, also was able to highlight the play of the younger players on the team. One of those players was Kendall Reyes on defense and his sacks.
We had some really strong contributions from the younger players. Kendall Reyes was outstanding and had two sacks. He's a guy who continues to grow and he's not a guy who's gotten into that rookie wall that people talk about. I think that he's getting better and better. (Marcus) Gilchrist had his best game as a Charger. He had impact plays and was consistent with big plays. Danario Alexander continues to make plays. I thought that Philip (Rivers) battled awfully well and I thought that he came back in the second half and made a bunch of plays. He got into a little bit of a rhythm and made plays and competed against the rush. It was a tough day. He got hit, he got banged around and he got harassed. But I thought that he battled through that and made big plays in the second half."

A nickel for everytime Norv says "obviously"
I'm of this game Norv. you keep giving the same answers every week. because you think we're asking the same "stupid" questions. No. it's you going about your business, doing the same things, an expecting different results. that's stupid. you haven't changed anything. that's what you get the "same" questions.
Right on Arnie... doesn't it seem like every team we lose to, he points out how good they are! Right on Arnie... same story, different game.
Andrew... yes, if every Charger fan had a nickle for every time he said that, and every time he said "I thought we competed hard", we could pay for a new stadium!
i do not think Norv knows what that means, "competed hard"?

Amerks swept, season ends
(Rochester, NY)... After a late-season surge down the final stretch of the regular season resulted in a playoff berth for the Rochester Americans, the season came to an end with a 3-0 loss to the Toronto Marlies in Game 3 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals on Monday night at The Blue Cross Arena. The Marlies won the best-of-five series three games to none. A crowd of 7,118 fans were in attendance at Game 3, the highest total to see an Amerks first round home playoff game since 1990.
"You have to look back at the way the guys played," Head Coach Ron Rolston said of the 2011-12 season. "They sacrificed and competed for each other, and that is a team to me. "
Toronto netminder Ben Scrivens finished with 29 saves for the Marlies to pick up his first shutout of the 2012 playoffs. Jerry D'Amigo and Nazem Kadri each registered a goal and an assist, while Phillipe Dupuis also found the back of the net.
For the Amerks, David Leggio turned away 23 of 26 shots faced in his 26th straight start overall.
The Marlies opened up the scoring 3:59 into the contest, capitalizing on a quick transition rush for an early 1-0 lead. Dupuis made his way into the offensive zone and let a quick wrist shot go from the right circle that beat Leggio up high.
D'Amgio, a native of Binghamton, NY, netted his league-leading fifth goal of the series just over a minute into the second period to double the Toronto advantage to 2-0. Off the rush, Kadri gained the Rochester blueline and fed D'Amigo in the high slot for a wrister through traffic that got by Leggio.
Toronto extended its lead to 3-0 at the 4:36 mark of the third, taking advantage of a three-on-two rush. Kadri ended up with the puck to the right of the net and finished the rush with a nifty maneuver before chipping the puck into the open net.
Marcus Foligno and Phil Varone led the Amerks in scoring during the postseason, as each rookie forward tallied two goals and an assist in the series. TJ Brennan also scored two goals in the series while Alex Biega collected two assists. Leggio, the team MVP who ended the season by starting each of the last 26 games and led the AHL in saves, stopped 78 of 89 shots in the series. Rochester was making its 42nd postseason appearance in the 56-year history of the franchise.
