A story of common folks and simple values in a changing culture. Sometimes the race does not go to the swiftest or the best things to the smartest. Like the story of the Hare and the turtle, a common man succeeds.
Stanislaus Poeroski was a simple man, not the sharpest tool in the drawer, but a sensitive, caring, loyal, industrious, hard working man of Polish descent. He wasn't born in Poland but, rather, in the Polish community in the city where the first language was Polish and the culture was old world Polish. He had been raised to respect and admire manual labor - to work hard and receive just compensation for his labors!
On graduation from high school, Stan had sought work as a construction laborer on a construction paving crew where he quickly drew the respect of his employers for his good work habits. His pay was quickly increased to match his worth and he soon surpassed most of his peers in annual income.
Still a young man, not yet twenty, he parents and family had advised that he find a nice Pollack girl, marry and raise a family. Stan, always an obedient son, had found a beautiful Pollack girl and married her but it was not a good marriage as the woman had wanted more.
When he'd come home early from his job one autumn day he had found his beautiful wife being screwed by a stranger and it had been a blow to him. As he worked to repair heir marriage, his ego had taken a severe blow, his confidence faltered and he had to make amends with the church. On the other hand, his wife made no effort to save the marriage, left the church and had continued to fuck her lover with Stan's full knowledge.
Finally, with divorce his only option, and with his wife pregnant with another man's child Stan had surrendered. In the community property settlement, his wife had taken their savings, their car and most of the personal property. She had not sought their house which still had a substantial mortgage on it.
In the year and a half since the divorce, Stan had slowly recovered his confidence and restored his ego as he devoted himself to his work and his home. He had installed new doors and windows and improved the plumbing and heating with his own hands. . . something he was very good with,
Now, with the warm spring days, Stan was busy in the after-dinner twilight planting a tree. He had placed the tree in the hole that he'd excavated and was busy replacing soil around the roots of the new tree. As he placed some soil in the excavation, he adjusted the roots with a sort of tender, loving care to insure that hey were positioned to serve the tree well. He seemed sensitive to the needs of the tree as he worked. Stan's mind was totally on his work. . . had it been otherwise he might have noticed Gina Faducci as she walked slowly by, observing Stan as he worked.
Gina, who lived just a few doors down, often walked by Stan's house and had often admired the newly painted and renovated house and yards. Though she only knew Stan slightly, having been introduced to him at a neighborhood event some months previously, her interest was more than casual.
Gina was also divorced. Her family arranged marriage to a nice Italian boy who soon turned out to be a drug runner for the mob and in jail for life had been a fiasco. Her husband had wanted a showpiece wife to show off to his friends and she had been a suitable candidate.
When Gina had sought divorce, her family and her church had objected and sheÅ'd been forced to reject both in order to save her sanity. Hardly clear of the divorce, with a significant community property settlement, she learned of her husband's conviction and jail.
Alone, her ego bruised and her confidence shattered, she had moved away from the Italian community and into the Polish community where she'd purchased a small house and lived alone as she struggled with a full time job and keeping her house.
It was not what Gina had wanted. She still dreamed of a man and a family and a place in her church and her community. At first, she'd held no hope; then, with her restored confidence came hope. With hope came understanding of her needs and what it took to satisfy them.
With all of this came a renewed interest in sex. She was a woman, in her early twenties, with healthy hormones and frustration. She began to look about her for suitable prospects to end her frustration and make her life complete. There weren't many eligible men in the community and she had carefully cataloged each one in her mind.
So it was that Gina happened to be walking by as Stan was planting his tree. Her choice of route on that spring evening had been planned for just such a situation and she walked slowly as she observed Stan at his work. Stan was her most eligible candidate for a place in her future.
Then, having walked past his house, she reversed her course and walked to a point closest to where Stan was intent on his work. "Ah! Mr. Poeroski, isn't it" she called to him. Stan, hearing his name, looked up from his work and replied, "Ah! Ms. Faducci, isn't it"
As Stan replied, he observed the woman approaching him. Tall, perhaps 5'-9", shoulder length black hair framing a pale complection with feminine features and blue eyes. Perhaps it was her trim figure that excited him or perhaps it was something in her walk but he felt himself aroused.
It was a strange feeling, one he hadn't experienced since before his divorce except in vague, erotic dreams, and Stan reveled in the feeling. "It's good to see you Ms. Faducci," he said and she replied, "Please call me Gina."
So the conversation began. Soon, Gina sat beside Stan handling each of the roots of the tree with care as Stan tamped dirt in around it. They worked well together as they talked, mostly small talk about the community, the weather and the like.
As they worked and talked, a bond quickly formed and Gina's appraisal of Stan was in full operation. Strangely, Stan was also appraising Gina. . . something he had perceived that his background and culture held improper! In fact, his background and culture would have been quite shocked at the thoughts in his mind as he made his appraisal.
As Stan observed her fine, feminine face, he saw her lips and a tremor of lust shot through him as he thought of pressing his lips to hers. Then, as he observed the swell of her breasts in her tight sweater he felt his cock harden. As they talked, Stan's eyes continued to feast on the view before him.
Gina was well aware of Stan's appraisal; in fact, she encouraged it! If he was the man of her choice she wanted him in the proper mood for the next step in her plan. She only hoped that, if chosen, he would be as sensitive to her wants and needs as he had been to the tree he was planting.
As the last of the tree planting was completed, their talk shifted to a more personal nature and Gina outlined her hopes and plans for her future as modified so as not to scare Stan.
When Stan responded that he'd hoped for a wife and family to share with some day Gina's appraisal was complete. He was the man that she's try to make her future with.
Suddenly, Stan was aware of a very sexy woman standing in front of him. He couldn't explain it but something in her body language or perhaps her eyes was driving his already smoldering passions into a roaring blaze. He was fully aroused. . . much as he'd ever been! "Perhaps you'd like to come in the house and wash up." he said.
As they walked towards the house, Stan followed Gina into the back door and as they walked, he observed. It wasn't just her well turned ass or her shapely legs but something more that he couldn't described that drove his arousal to new heights. Again, Gina was aware of his watching and approved.
As Gina washed her hands and tidied up in the bathroom, she was deep in thought. That she would seduce Stan was a forgone conclusion but whether to do it tonight was much in her mind. If she were too forwards, she'd scare him off; yet, on the other hand, if she was too slow, he might lose interest. It was probably her own raging hormones that made her decision. . . .tonight was the night!
As she left the bathroom and headed to the kitchen, she found Stan making a pot of tea. Stan had also been thinking as he put together the tea and found the cookies he'd baked earlier. Perhaps he could make it with Gina. . .just perhaps he could get her down and have his way with her!
As he'd considered, he thought of the possibilities! He had seen into her heart and soul as they'd talked earlier. . .or maybe it was just a passing thing. . . wither way it could be a pleasant time of fun and games. Still, he felt his inexperience in these matters and began to doubt his ability to seduce such a beautiful Italian woman. Naturally shy, he determined to suppress his feelings!
As Gina came into his kitchen and walked to him at the stove, he felt a moment of terror. . .strange he thought! What had provoked such a strong emotion Then, she came up behind him, touching him as she watched his tea making efforts. Again, as he felt her warmth touching him, Stan felt a moment of terror! He turned.
It was as he turned that he found himself face to face with Gina and their body's touching. At that instant, his mind fell into utter chaos and he acted on some spurious instinct. . .at least it wasn't planned.
When Stan bent to kiss Gina on the lips, he expected to be rebuked or otherwise rejected and was pleasantly surprised when she seemed to accept the kiss and actually welcome it. Again, his mind slipped into chaos as he realized the possibilities before him!
He kissed her again, this time with a bit more finesse, in fact with every bit of the finesse he could muster! As her lips responded to his, their arms reached out to draw each other into a tight embrace, and their intimacy reached a new level.
It was after the fourth or maybe the seventh or tenth kiss and some familiar caressing that the tea pot sounded it's whistle and demanded attention .Stan turned to address the problem and the spell was broken. Soon the two sat across the small kitchen table from each other, enjoying tea and cookies.
Both knew it was a time for talk; yet they neither one knew how to initiate it. It was Stan who spoke first. "IÅ'm just a dumb Pollack and I'm not very good around women but I know a good woman when I see one," he said, "You're a very good woman!"
Gena, hearing his words said simply, "Well, I'm just a dumb Italiano but I think I've found the man I would like to spend the rest of my life with. . ." Then, having spoken, she grew quiet as she realized the magnitude of the condition her words conveyed.
As the silence remained unbroken, Gina felt the terror rise in her. She had screwed up! Then, she spoke again. . . "I'm sorry Stan! I had no right to say that. We hardly know each other!"
Again there was a long silence and Gina felt the tears rising in her eyes and she turned to hide them from Stan; then she stood to leave.
Stan had been shocked by her admission. He was all up for an evening of fun and games but a lifetime commitment was more than he'd expected her to mention. He remained silent as he considered her words. Hadn't he considered just such a possibility just minutes before she had mouthed her own earlier
Then, as Gina arose from her chair he had seen her tears and saw her preparing to depart. He panicked!
Suddenly, by some inspiration Stan found the words, "Could a Dumb Pollack and a beautiful, wonderful Italiano woman possibly find a life together" Stan asked as Gina turned to face him. The smile on her face said it all.
Stan arose from his chair at the table and went to her; then, with confidence he didn't know he possessed, he embraced her and planted a kiss firmly on her lips. This kiss, different from those previous ones, strong and demanding and required a strong woman to respond in kind. It was quickly apparent that Gina was such a woman as they sat together on the big living room sofa.
When Stan, filled with his newly acquired confidence, reached under her sweater and released the snaps on her bra she gave a sigh and with the touch of his fingers on the soft flesh of her breasts she cried out, "Oh yes! . . .Oh My God!. . .Yes! Oh, that feels soooo goood!
"Do you like my fingers on you" Stan asked
"Oh yes! I love your touch!"
"Do you want me to remove your sweater"
Gina responded by pulling the sweater from her torso and casting it on to the floor along with her bra; then lying back down on the sofa.
"Do you want me to put my mouth on your titties" Stan asked as he knelt over her..
"Oh my God yes!
"Oh Yes!. . . Yeh, just like that! Suck on those nipples and get me hot." Gina cried as Stan's mouth found her breasts and nibbled on her nipples.
"Can I remove your Levi cutoffs and Panties," Stan asked as he reached for the zipper which would open their fly
"Do it," Gina replied as she raised her butt and allowed him to remove the last vestige of her clothing.
"Let me look at you. . . all of you for the first time," Stan said and proceeded to look. "YouÅ're so beautiful!. . . You're one hot woman. . . Your ex-husband was a fool!"!" he said
Then, Stan returned to caress and lave and bite on her breasts as she lay convenient to him on the bed. Even as the play on her breasts was just recommencing Stans hands were lightly caressing her soft inner thighs and groin area. "D you like that" Stan asked again.
"Oh yes!. . .YouÅ're doing me so good!
A minute later, Gina felt Stans lips slowly move across her belly, planting wet, slobbery kisses as they went. Slowly the lips traveled, leaving a trail of wet saliva over her outer thigh and back to the soft flesh of her inner thigh.
It was then that Gina realized Stan's intentions. . . he was going to give oral stimulation to her pussy. . . something she had never received before! She cried out, "Oh yes! . . . Oh! do it to me! . . . Ohhh Myyyyy Goooooooodddddd!" Stan's mouth had found the soft inner folds of her labia.
For Stan, it was also a relatively new experience and this was the only time he'd ever actually liked it. . . His former wife had never had time for what she considered kinky sex and had not encouraged him. With Gina, it was different as she encouraged him and acted appreciatively to his ministrations. Encouraged by her obvious appreciation, he experimented as he found her clit and nibbled on it.
"Ooohhhhh Yyyeeeehhhhhh!" Gina cried out as pleasure wracked her very being!
She turned on the bed and soon found Stan's cock which she took in her hands intending to play with it and suddenly had the urge to mouth it. She had done it many times before, at her ex-husband's insistence, but had never enjoyed it. . .somehow, she felt the need to experiment. She placed her mouth over the crown of Stan's cock and experimented. . .laving it here and there, sucking on it at times as she sought only to familiarized herself with it! Then, as her own pleasure emanated from her groin area she felt a need to really mouth it.
In an instant they were locked in a classic 69 deriving untold pleasures that they had never imagined possible. They worked in silence, their lips involved in the stimulation they were providing. It was Stan that broke first as he cried, "I'm gonna cum!"
The words evoked a moment of panic when Gina heard them. . . she had never had a man's cum in her mouth before and she. . .then, with the thought that other women took men's jizm in their mouth regularly she determined to at least try. Perhaps. . . .!
It was then that her mouth was flooded with a series of spurts of semen which flew to the back of her throat and into her lungs and she choked!. . . She gagged!. . .she kept the big cock in her mouth by sheer determination! Suddenly she felt a source of pride and . . . bit again she was cut off by different thoughts.
The pleasure emanating from her vagina was reaching climax proportions, something she had never experienced with a man except, occasionally during an exceptional fucking! Confused, she fought the feeling; then, realizing that it was natural and about to happen anyway, she relaxed. As she relaxed, she felt her release rumble through her like lightning and thunder in a summer storm. She started to cry out but found only weird animal sounds coming from her mouth, "EEEeeiiiieeeee. . . OOOooo.. . . .Yeeee. . . .!"
Then as the storm passed, she cried out, "Stan, I want you in me . . .Now!"
Stan did not answer as he continued his oral service to her vagina. His ministrations were improving with familiarization and experience and he was improving his technique.
He began to experiment with Gina's clit, suckling and caressing and simply blowing his hot breath on it.
"Now Stan! . . . I want you to give it to me now!" Gina said
"Are you sure"
"Don't mess with me Stan. Just do me good!"
"You didnÅft like what I was doing"
With that, Stan moved and shifted on the bed to crawl between her widely splayed knees and over her into the classic Missionary position as Gina assisted him over her. Then, after a few awkward attempts, Gina felt the crown of Stans cock part way into her waiting vagina.
"Are you ready"
"Just do me good Stan"
With that Gina felt the big cock slide into her vagina. It moved slowly, stopping frequently for lubrication and familiarization. It was big. . .bigger than she'd remembered her ex-husband's! It was powerful; yet gentle in it's travel and she adjusted easily.. She knew immediately that Stan was going to be a sensitive lover. . Then, she felt it. . .his testicles were against her ass as he was fully engaged. She felt the dull feeling of it against her cervix. As Gina lay feeling him filling her vagina like never before, she felt an exhilaration come over her. She wanted only to please and be pleased.
Meanwhile, Stan was feeling his new sensations as well. When he had moved over Gina, he wasn't sure he had fully recovered his prowess after his massive cum in her mouth. Then, once in the position, he worried about the awkwardness of the initial entry into her vagina. Surely there must be a more efficient way for a man's cock to find the entrance to a woman's vagina but, if there was, he didn't know it. Then, sooner than he'd expected, he felt his cock head slip into her opening and his fear was past. As he drove himself into her, he moved slowly, savoring every nuance of pleasure as he went. He stopped in his progress frequently to allow Gina to adjust and get familiar. He was powerful. . . he held Gina's pleasure in his actions! Then, came the sobering thought, he was also responsible for providing the most and the best!
When Stan felt his cock head push against Gina's cervix, he felt a sense of accomplishment. He had done this with only one other woman and it hadn't been nearly as memorable as this.
They kissed and Stan sensed a smile on Gina's mouth as they reveled in each other and their intimacy. He mounted a big grin in response and suddenly Gina rose up to kiss him squarely on his grin. Their eyes met. . . There was so much to be learned from the eyes as they sought to assimilate it all. . . the passions! . . .the needs! . . . the newly found intimacy! It was all there.
But there was so much more that they could still not fathom. . . Buried deep in their hearts and souls were matters that perhaps they themselves were still unaware and which their eyes had laid bare to their lover. Perhaps. . . .!
"Yes Gina!"
"Fuck me now!"
With that admonition, Stan began the slow, steady coital rhythm that was the very basis of any good fucking. He moved slowly at first with shorter strokes allowing Gina to pick up the rhythm and cooperate more fully. He did not hurry as they adjusted their technique to each other. Then, soon they were moving in a steady coital motion that brought heightened sensations and pleasures to both.
"Oh! YouÅ're good!" Gina spoke
"You make me that way!" Came the reply.
A minute passed then two and the tempo of their love making began to increase. Stans strokes began to drive deeper into Gina's belly and retract almost to withdrawal. They no longer spoke as their minds turned inward.
No longer two lovers trying to please each other, they sought satisfaction - their own peak! Now their coital rhythm was wild and violent as Stan's cock slide into her vagina a hundred times a minute. Gina, still moving in sync, met his every thrust!
Gina lay on her back, meeting Stan's thrusts with an expertise she didn't know she had. She had been fucked many times by her ex-husband but never like this. This demanded every fiber of her being and her heart, mind and soul! As she recognized ther ever increasing demands, she began to fear that she wasn't capable of meeting Stan on an equal basis.
She heard a voice crying, "Yehhhh. . .! Yehhh. .! Yeh. !" in sync with the thrusting she felt and it was hers. Then she felt her passions rising rapidly and recognized her second orgasm approaching aa she tried to cry out and warn her lover. No words came as her mind lost it's power of reason and allowed pure feelings to take over.
Stan also had felt Gina's approaching orgasm and matched his movements to accommodate her pending relief. Then, as he became aware of her rising passions, Stan began to feel his own end in sight. He moved faster.
It was Stan who began to peak first. He cried out, "I'm gonnaÅcum," as the first strings of his semen fired off into her belly.
Gina, so engrossed in her own approaching peak, was barely aware of Stan's condition and when she felt the first surge from his exploding cock, she felt her own melt down. It was her strongest ever. . . "Twice in one day - another record." she thought as she drifted off into the peace and serenity of the afterglow.
Minutes later, still joined by Stan's now flaccid cock, they lay together. The intimacy was like no other and they lay bathed in it. They didn't talk. . .this time was too precious for that! Gina lay secure in the knowledge that she'd carried out her plan and she'd given her all to please this man. The rest weas up to fate.
Stan spoke first. "Gina, Would you move in here with me and live with me like a wife"
"I don't know. Why do you ask"
"Cause then we could be together all the time."
"Is that what you want Stan"
"Yeh! I'd like to be married to you"
Suddenly the talk grew serious as Gina said, "I was married once and it wasn't a good thing but what we did was a good thing. I'll move in with you tomorrow but I'm not much into marriage yet!"
"Will you love me" Stan asked.
"What do you think that last event was all about"
"I mean in a year or two"
"I sincerely hope so. . . I made all those promises once and. . . "
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Not the Conclusion
Next day, Friday, was a foul weather day as Stan was unable to lay paving and Giuna called into her job to say she wouldn't be there until Monday. Stan was up early packing Gina's personal belongings from her house to his. As he cleared a room, Gina scrubbed and scoured and left it presentable. By nightfall, they were cohabiting in Stan's house.
The next couple of months found Stan and Gina living together much as husband and wife. Gina's house would go on the market as it was no longer needed and the proceeds from the sale would go into a separate account in case Gina was to ev er leave the insignificant other arrangement.
All Stan's spare time was spent fixing and painting and cleaning Gina's old house. The yards and lawns were soon renovated and the place was up for sale.
It was just short of three months after Stan and Gina entered into their arrangement that Gina announced, "You Pollack Son-of-a-Gun, You've gotten me pregnant! It must have happened that very first time we got it on. How do you feel about it"
Stan said nothing for a moment as he digested the news. "Now will you marry me you spik coochie" he finally spoke.
"I dun know why a Pollack and a Spik Coochie couldn't make it. Guess we could give it a try."
"Whatya mean a try, ya dumb broad" Stan answered.
"Stan, Don't talk to a pregnant woman that way. We gotta start behavin like examples for the kid."
With that Stan grabbed Gina with a hand firmly on her buns and drew her to him where he kissed her in a most undignified fashion. In his gruff tone he spoke, "Come to bed right now!"
Gina was ready and willing as she moved towards the bedroom. She was ready for some excitement after a dull day at home. "All right, big man, come over here and do me or are ya all talk"
A few minutes later as the two lovers lay sated on the bed, Stan looked over at his nude and used wife. His mind went to the first time he'd seen her unclothed and to the pleasure the view had given him. It had happened many times since and his eyes still adored her as much as ever. Of course, Gina, seeing the adoration in his eyes lay quietly taking pleasure in pleasing him.
Two weeks later, they were married in a small protestant church, their own church having frowned on second marriages. It was a small ceremony, just Stan and Gina and the preacher but the vows were sacred.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
The Conclusion
Now, forty one years later, a lonely woman named Gina stands over a new grave and mourns. In the ground beneath her lies her late husband Stan's body - the spirit gone to a better place. The woman, Gina keeps her grief in silence and an observer would see no trace of her feelings.
Gina and Stan had made eight boys before giving up on getting a girl. Each of their kids was unique; yet each had been instilled with the right values for success in the work.
Their own kids often wondered, behind their parents back of course, how their father had found the money to pay for their university training on his Construction worker's pay They never found satisfaction in what they could do with their hands, nor of the value of common labor.
When Stan's estate was probated, his three Engineers, two Doctors, two Lawyers and an Accountant were amazed at the size of his investments and the net worth of his holdings when he died. He was a common laborer.
But, to his wife Gina he was much, much more. He was a man that could even in death could make her heart quicken and arouse lusty feelings. He was her man. . . .

The Angry Bird Mobile is coming! Liana Bandziulis, a 20-year-old student at Loyola Marymount University, is converting a golf cart into a bigger-than-life Angry Bird, complete with a slingshot from which to launch hand-crafted plush versions at unsuspecting bystanders. The electric vehicle will debut at Burning Man, an anarchistic art festival that its organizers describe as "an annual experiment in temporary community dedicated to radical self-expression and radical self-reliance." This year's Burning Man will be held August 29 to September 5. The Angry Bird Art Car project has been posted on Kickstarter to raise funds to pay for the materials needed for the customization.
Liana is the current leader of GuerilLA, the Los Angeles offshoot of Improv Everywhere, of which I am also a member. Knowing her, and knowing that a significant percentage of GeekDad readers and their children are avid fans of the game, I sent her an email; I asked her about the project, about Burning Man and about herself.
GeekDad: My perception (I've never been to it) is that Burning Man is not terribly kid-friendly; how accurate is that perception?
Liana Bandziulis: Not 100%. There's actually a camp devoted to families with lil'uns. It's very tame if you stay thereabouts. The open Playa is different. Your kid needs to have a high tolerance for nudity and dirt, and enough smarts to avoid Art Cars and fire. Continue Reading "The Angry Birds Art Car on Kickstarter" »

When the 2007 International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) Spring Convention opens its doors to a throng of 50,000 retail real-estate executives this month, attendees will be presented not only with more leasing-mall exhibits than ever before, but also a lineup of projects that show innovation and progressive thinking.
The annual event, which will be held May 20-23, 2007, at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, is a retail tenant's nirvana as shopping center developers unveil new projects and a plethora of attractive leasing opportunities. Covering them all would be an impossibility, so Chain Store Age has provided a preview of some of the highlighted projects on display in Las Vegas later this month.
Center at Innovation
Location: Manassas, Va.Size: 276,000 sq. ft.Developer: Edens & AvantMajor tenants: Super Target, T.J. Maxx, plus regional and local retailersStatus: Slated to open March 2008
Center at Innovation has found itself a great home. The 276,000-sq.-ft. Super Target-anchored center, developed by Columbia, S.C.-based Edens & Avant, resides in Manassas, Va.—specifically in Prince William County, one of the fastest-growing counties in the nation. Surrounding the Center at Innovation's site is prolific residential and office development activity and, because it's the only retail piece in the vicinity, the center is expected to be highly trafficked.
Alamance Crossing
Location: Burlington, N.C.Size: 840,000 sq. ft.Developer: CBL & Associates PropertiesMajor tenants: Newly announced J.C. Penney will join Dillard's and Belk department stores in anchoring the open-air shopping, dining and entertainment development; junior anchors include Barnes & Noble, a 16-screen Carousel West End Cinemas, as well as specialty retailers Ann Taylor Loft, Chico's, The Children's Place, Coldwater Creek, New York & Co., and Yankee Candle.Status: Opening is slated for August 2007.
Main Street USA is coming to Burlington, N.C., as the CBL-developed Alamance Crossing project nears completion. Architecture references small-town America, while also paying tribute to the area's rich history in the textile and tobacco industries. Lifestyle amenities such as spacious walkways and curb-side parking lend convenience as well as enjoyment to the complex.
On display this month in Las Vegas, Alamance Crossing is one of 14 CBL projects currently under construction. Other projects include Pear-land Town Center in Houston (Pearland, Texas) and phase two of Gulf Coast Town Center in Fort Myers, Fla.
The Arboretum
The Arboretum will draw plenty of attention at ICSC's Spring Convention. The open-air lifestyle center in the northwest suburbs of Chicago has a premium location—at the intersection of Illinois Routes 59 and 72, along a corridor that is experiencing explosive growth. Just a mile away, in the mixed-use Prairie Stone Development, is Sears Holdings Corp.'s headquarters, the recently opened Sears Center event arena, a planned 450-room resort hotel, water park and Illinois' first Cabela's.
Location: South Barrington (Chicago), Ill.Size: 600,000 sq. ft.Developer: The Jaffe Cos.Major tenants: Tenant lineup will include an upscale mix of fashion-apparel brands, home-furnishings retailers, a luxury movie complex and restaurants.Status: The targeted opening date is summer 2008.
Developed by Northbrook, Ill.-based The Jaffe Cos., The Arboretum sits on the site of a former nursery and is envisioned by its developers as a true town center. "The Arboretum of South Barrington is meant to convey warmth and intimacy, but also timelessness and charm," said Michael Jaffe, president. "It should feel as if it's been there forever."
Tudor-style architecture is intended to reference Market Square in Lake Forest, Ill., one of the country's earliest integrated-use shopping centers. Fashion-apparel and home-furnishings stores will comprise about two-thirds of the retail mix, while the remaining third will be devoted to entertainment venues including a luxury cinema and destination restaurants.
City of North Las Vegas Town Center
A college scholarship will be awarded to whomever comes up with a name for the new mixed-use retail project in North Las Vegas. The even bigger winners are the community's residents, who will have their own town center and gathering place.
The $300 million development will include a retail, dining and entertainment center, as well as a residential component consisting of about 800 units. "With its shops, dining, activities and enticing public spaces, it will be a place that will allow the community to gather in a festive atmosphere," said Rick Kuhle, president of Phoenix-based Vestar.
Location: North Las Vegas, Nev.Size: Up to 1.3 million sq. ft. of retail, dining and entertainment, and a residential component, on 160 acresDeveloper: Vestar Development Co., with leasing services provided by Taubman Centers. The Athena Group is developing the residential and, in conjunction with Celebration Centers of America, serves as the master-plan developers of the mixed-use project.Major tenants: Lifestyle retailers, restaurants and at least one department store will be joined by an array of large-format retail offering everything from electronics to home goods.Status: Opening is slated for late 2008.
Town-center amenities such as outdoor fireplaces, pop-jet fountains, a video wall, a performance stage, shaded walkways, lush landscape and extensive pedestrian walkways will create a true lifestyle destination.
The Streets of Indian Lake
Another major retail project on display in Las Vegas will be The Streets of Indian Lake, a 405,000-sq.-ft. lifestyle center near Nashville that serves as the lifestyle retail component of a Halo Properties master plan that includes 1 million sq. ft. of office space, a retail power center and upscale multifamily housing. Columbus, Ohio-based Continental Retail Development (CRD) is the developer of the lifestyle portion. The first group of tenants, including Barnes & Noble and Regal Cinema, were announced earlier this year.
Location: Hendersonville (Nashville), Tenn.Size: 405,000 sq. ft.Developer: Continental Retail DevelopmentMajor tenants: Barnes & Noble, Regal Cinema, Lane Bryant, Jos. A. Bank, New York & Co., J. Jill, Talbots, Coldwater Creek, Bath & Body Works, Ann Taylor, Victoria's Secret, Gymboree, Qdoba Mexican Grill, Marble Slab Creamery, The Children's Place, Chico's, Sunglass Hut, Francesca's, Icing by Claire's and Carlyle & Co. JewelersStatus: Slated to open March 2008
"We are thrilled to be bringing these great specialty retail and entertainment tenants to Hendersonville," said David Kass, president of CRD. "This is just the first wave."
Silver Spring Square
Although the Harrisburg, Pa., area presented a multitude of site options, Rochester, N.Y.-based Wegmans Food Markets selected Silver Spring Square as the location of its first store in the south-central Pennsylvania market.
"That's quite significant," said Mac Chandler, managing director, Northeast investments, for Jacksonville, Fla.-based Regency Centers, co-developer of the project. Just as significant is what it has taken to get the community center developed.
Location: Mechanicsville (Silver Spring/Harrisburg), Pa.Size: 486,812 sq. ft.Developers: Regency Centers and TCH DevelopmentMajor tenants: Target, Wegmans, ULTA, Bed Bath & Beyond, Best Buy, Ross Dress for Less, Lane Bryant, Maggie Moo's, Hair Cuttery, Petco, Longhorn Steakhouse, Chili's, Panera Bread, PNC Bank, Advance Auto PartsStatus: Opening in phases (Longhorn Steakhouse and Chili's opened in February), with center to be mostly open by September 2007
"We had to overcome a variety of challenges in order to develop this project," said Powell Arms, VP of investments. The developers obtained a $7 million-plus grant from the state of Pennsylvania for off-site improvements, which encompassed street widening, acquisition of right-of-ways, and, "We constructed the third-longest concrete suspension bridge in the state of Pennsylvania," said Arms.
The bridge traverses a trout-filled stream that runs along the property. "We had to take extensive measures to preserve the quality of the storm water," explained Chandler. "We worked with Trout Unlimited to create innovative ways to measure and protect the quality of the water that is being discharged into the stream so as not to harm the fish."
Another innovation was using rock from an adjacent quarry as the source of all of the project's aggregate.
Eight years—six years by TCH Development and another two invested by Regency—have gone into the development of Silver Spring Square, resulting in a premier property slated to be highlighted at the Las Vegas convention in May.

VERIZON WIRELESS RIPOFF Demanding Full Month Payment Even Though Full Month Not Due...Not Under Contract dallas Texas
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I did not renew my contract w/Verizon wireless, and was a customer for more than 12 years...I switched to AT&T due to better pricing, which Verizon could not meet. ATT&T ported my phone numbers on 3/1/2013, and subsequently cancelled w/verizon on the same day... I have spoken with customer service who said I probably owed around $37. for the days of use since I was not under contract, and would get confirmration in the mail for final payment...when I received the final payment it was for the entire $114. which included the remaining days of the month I did not use verizon service. They are insisting that I have to pay the total amount...and are now having a collection group call me. Should I just go to the state regulatory group? Anyone who has had any success...I would appreciate your input. Thanks

Fayyazuddin or Fayyaz Uddin, HI (Urdu: فيا ض ا لدين) (born 10 November 1930), is a Pakistani theoretical physicist and an Emeritus Professor of Theoretical and Mathematical Physics at National Centre for Physics and Quaid-e-Azam University, Islamabad.[1][2] He is a senior scientist at the National Center for Physics where his research is engaged to the fields of quantum mechanics, particle physics, and meson physics. He is a brother of physicist Riazuddin and the student of Abdus Salam. Along with Riazuddin, he has published numerous physics papers and has co-authored the Quantum Mechanics by Fayyazuddin and Riazuddin which was published in 2000.[3]
Born in Ludhiana, Fayyazuddin and Riazuddin received their intermediate education from there. Following the partition of India, the family migrated to Lahore, Pakistan. He along with his brother Riazuddin attended Punjab University.[4] Fayyazuddin did his BA with honours in Mathematics from Punjab University, followed by his in MSc Mathematical physics under the supervision of Abdus Salam.[5] His master's degree dissertation were written on the "Methods of Mathematical Physics", which was jointly written with Riazuddin. In 1953, he did his M.Phil. in Particle physics, writing his another master thesis on "Energy Loss of Mesons in Crystals", under the supervision of Rafi Muhammad Chaudhry from the same alma mater.[citation needed] After his MSc and M.Phil, Fayyaz moved to Karachi and joined the Karachi University where he became a lecturer of physics.[6]
After teaching Mathematics and Physics at the Karachi University, Fayyaz, on his brother's advice, travelled to United Kingdom in 1959. He attended Imperial College London where Abdus Salam and Riazuddin were also teaching. He was awarded his PhD. in theoretical Particle physics under the supervision of Prof. Abdus Salam (late) in 1962.[7] Fayyazuddin's dissertation where written on "Preliminary Analysis of Photoproduction of K Mesons in the Mandelstam Representation".[8] Following his PhD, Fayyaz came back to Pakistan and joined Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC).[9]
Academic career[edit]
Fayyazuddin joined Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC) in 1962 where he worked under Abdus Salam. At the PAEC, he continued his research on the cosmic ray mu mesons. He then published his research journal on the basis of the Bethe-Bloch theory, in which the theory supports the idea of a logarithmic increase of ionization loss for relativistic particles. At the time he published his thesis, there was a controversy between two sets of experiments, Fayyazuddin founded interested to perform the experiment.
Fayyazuddin on a post-doctoral research went to United States where he joined his brother. Fayyaz was offered post doctoral research at the Enrico Fermi Institute at the University of Chicago where he also met a noted physicist Faheem Hussain.[10][self-published source?] At the Institute, Fayyazuddin, along with Faheem Hussain, Riazuddin, Peter Rotteli formed "The Relativity Group" where the team of young scientists carried out the research to the fields of special relativity. In 1968, when the Institute of Physics was established at the then-University of Islamabad by the Abdus Salam's effort, the scientists returned the Pakistan reluctantly. Fayyazuddin, along with Faheem Hussain, Arif-uz-Zaman, and Sarwar Razmi, joined the Institute of Physics.[11] Due to their contribution, the institute was an active centre of research in theoretical particle physics and its presence was felt at an international level.[11]
In 1970, Fayyazuddin went to Great Britain where he joined the Rutherford Appleton Laboratories as a research associate scientist. In 1972, Fayyazudin returned to Pakistan where he joined the Institute of Physics of Quaid-e-Azam University. In 1972, Fayyazuddin, including with mathematician Munir Ahmad Rashid, attended the Multan meeting – a meeting in which Pakistan decided to developed the atomic weapon.[citation needed] He joined the Theoretical Physics Group under his brother's guidance, and, he took participation in Fast neutron calculations – a key calculation to developed the weapon – and contributed in the calculations in Neutron fluxes.[12] In 1973, Fayyazuddin then travelled to Geneva, Switzerland where he became a visiting scientist European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). At CERN, he purposed the Calibrations and Fayyazuddin-Smith spacetimes, the theory describe intersecting M5-branes admits a generalised Kähler calibration. Equipped with this understanding, Fayyazuddin and Smith were able to construct spacetimes corresponding to further classes of calibrated p-brane world-volume solitons. The theory also noted that these classes of spacetimes also describe the fields of p-branes wrapping certain supersymmetric cycles of Calabi-Yau manifolds.[13] In 1977, he came back to Pakistan and joined Quaid-i-Azam University where he subsequently became a dean of Faculty of Natural Sciences whereas he also became a professor of physics. In 1980, he went to Saudi Arabia where he became a full professor of physics at the King Saud University at Riyadh; a full professor of physics at the Ummal Qura University at Mecca where he stayed till 1996. After teaching in Saudi Arabia for more than a decade, Fayyazuddin came back to Pakistan in 2005 where he joined Quaid-i-Azam University.[14] In 2007, Fayyazuddin joined National Center for Physics as a senior scientist. In 2008, he was awarded HEC Distinguished Professor Award by the Higher Education Commission of Pakistan.[15] In 2000, President of Pakistan General Pervez Musharraf conferred on him Pakistan's Second high civilian award Hilal-i-Imtiaz for his diverse contributions to research in physics and the contribution to science.[16]

Tottenham midfielder Scott Parker has returned to light training with the first-team squad as he steps up his recovery from an Achilles injury. The England international has not featured this season after undergoing surgery on the problem over the summer. Parker, who played a key role for Spurs last season after joining from West Ham, picked up the injury towards the end of last term before battling through England's Euro 2012 campaign. Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas said on Tuesday the 32-year-old is beginning to rebuild his fitness. "Scott's having his first training sessions and we're now looking to build-up his fitness levels," he told the club's official website . "Not only that, it's important for a player who has been out to get a feel for his team-mates again, to stop training individually and get together with the group. "We'll build-up his fitness and then we can look at the options for him."

If you experience the unpleasant occurrence of getting hit by an uninsured driver, you aren't out of luck. If you have full coverage, you may have no trouble at all having your insurance company pay for any damages to your car, or any medical expenses that you may incur.
Get Free Car Insurance Quotes >>
Unfortunately, not everyone can afford a full coverage plan. So what happens if an uninsured driver hits you, and you only have liability? In this case, your only option may be to pursue a lawsuit against the perpetrator. But chances are if they can't afford to buy insurance, they probably won't have enough money to pay your expenses.
Luckily, you have an option to prevent this from happening, even if you don't want to purchase a full coverage plan. You can add uninsured motorist coverage to your liability plan, which will protect you from being out of luck if you get injured in such an accident. Most uninsured motorist plans don't include damage to your vehicle however. Even so, it's a good idea to have uninsured motorist coverage to prevent a costly medical bill. In the state of California, it's estimated that around 28% of drivers are uninsured, and it's probably close to that number in other states as well.
If an uninsured driver hits you, it's best to have a full coverage plan to safeguard yourself from the headache of dealing with a lawsuit. At the very least, purchase uninsured motorist coverage to avoid a costly medical bill, in case you get an injury in such an accident.

Popular Girl
Poem by: Candymyne
Status: Finished
Genre: Song Lyrics
such a pretty girl.
such lonely eyes.
such a cozy life!
so good, so nice.
lovely smiles and good times.
you party, the worry dies.
such a pretty girl.
so cute and care free.
the envy of others.
what a wonderful life!
cute guys romance you.
what a popular girl, so cool and so awesome!
(such a sad cover up)
no one knows..
what you feel.
you cry, you hurt. (drown in misery)
feel so much pain. (hurt by loved ones)
pretty girl, envy of others. (jealous)
hate your body. (disgusting)
family, fake love on the surface.
so insecure, hateful commentary.
romancing guys want one thing.
envy of others? (fake star)
drama of your life!
you cry out for help! (friend's ignorance)
cry out for love. (deceitful men)
friends and family cant see tears running inside.
smile in the morning. (wake up in pain)
cries out at night. (bombarding stress)
oh sweet girl who will listen? (ignorant ears)
against a tsunami of hate! (they smile at you)
you barely survive. (weak train of thought)
everything's against you. (no outreaching hands)
beautiful flower, stuck in a swamp. (such crap in your life)
such easy pleasures (the drinks, the dust, you dance)
small bits of happiness. (tiny spot-light)
climb up the latter.. (such a cool girl)
you're a popular girl...
who will love you? (use you?)
who will care? (throw you away)
who can see what's inside? (such a sexy body)
understanding comes easy. (wants to feel real)
when you're a popular girl..
what a strong flower.
stuck in a swamp. (life)
move on, move on (there are other swamps)
sweet girl, independent and strong. (weakness in your eyes)
needs no protecting! (just want to be held)
such a popular girl (hateful jealousy)
knows what she wants (no direction)
oh sweet girl, who will see whats inside? (beautiful body)
how long will you call out?
fallow your dreams. (no way out)
make a new life. (cant start alone)
start over again. (not so easy)
and find a new light. (let it blind you)
when will you realize? (open your eyes!)
you were never alone...
someone's been listening... (such a mindless drone)
your eyes are blind...
you toy with his heart...
he's been waiting for you. (always been there!)
he's been there when you cried. (shared your laughter)
has a guy just for you. (no treachery!)
been calling your name. (come to me)
protector of your life. (deadly swamp)
call out! say his name! (invite)
open your heart, you can trust. (wont let you down)
show what happiness is.. (show real love)
oh look up sweet girl, call out to him.
you deserve to be happy.
time to reset.
time to smile for real oh popular girl.

Critical Care
Pediatric Critical Care Medicine Training
The Program
The Place
The People
The Fellowship Curriculum
How to Apply
Contact Us
The Program
Since 1990, the UAMS Department of Pediatrics, in partnership with Arkansas Children's Hospital, has offered an ACGME-accredited fellowship training program in Pediatric Critical Care Medicine. We offer a three-year fellowship in Pediatric Critical Care Medicine leading to board eligibility for the Critical Care Medicine Sub-board of the American Board of Pediatrics. Currently, our first-time Board pass rate is 98% since the program's inception. Before telling you a bit more about the program curriculum and how to apply, let us share with you more information about our hospital and its tremendous resources.
Arkansas Children's Hospital is a private, not for profit, free standing children's hospital with 370 beds. Established in 1910, the hospital underwent rapid growth in the 1980's and is now one of the ten largest children's hospitals in the nation. The hospital serves as the major pediatric teaching affiliate for the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
The hospital is the only pediatric hospital in the state of Arkansas, and serves as a referral center for areas of Mississippi, southern Missouri, eastern Oklahoma, northern Louisiana and northeast Texas. Having the only PICU in this cachement area allows us to provide pediatric critical care fellows with abundant, thorough, and varied clinical experiences in the care of critically ill and injured children. Nationally renowned programs such as the pediatric cardiovascular surgery program and the ECMO program attract patients from other areas of the country as well. The ECMO program at Arkansas Children's Hospital is one of the nation's busiest.
Arkansas Children's Hospital is the base for the pediatric residency program of UAMS. Fellows in critical care play a key role in educating pediatric housestaff in the care of critically ill children and adolescents.
The Donald W. Reynolds PICU is a 26-bed unit with approximately 1,200 admissions per year. Due to our being the only pediatric facility in the state, the PICU at Arkansas Children's Hospital cares for children with a wide variety of critical illnesses and injuries. A separate 30 bed cardiovascular intensive care unit is in close proximity to the PICU. Arkansas Children's Hospital is home to the state's only Burn Center , as well as a 100-bed NICU.
The hospital operates Angel One - an extremely busy neonatal and pediatric transport service, utilizing two helicopters, three vans, and a variety of fixed-winged aircraft. Fellows in critical care medicine have ample opportunity to gain experience transporting critically ill and injured children and learning to provide medical control for a transport team. The Angel One team averages approximately 80 PICU transports per month.
Critical Care Faculty
Ten Board-certified pediatric intensivists comprise the primary teaching staff for the fellowship program. Four of these faculty members are cardiac intensivists who attend in both CVICU and PICU.
Faculty List - Critical Care
The Fellowship Curriculum
The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer and has a Conrad 30 waiver program. Women and minorities are encouraged to apply.

Choose Your Plastic Surgeon Carefully
Remember, any licensed physician is legally allowed to advertise as a "cosmetic" surgeon, even if he or she has no formal surgical training. Your body is nothing to take chances with, so avoid the risk. Selecting a board-certified plastic surgeon from this list is your assurance that your doctor has the highest quality training and advanced surgical skills.
ABPS Certification and ASAPS Membership Matters
The ABPS is recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties to certify doctors in the specialty of plastic surgery. Following medical school, ABPS-certified plastic surgeons must have completed a minimum of 5 years of surgical training, including an accredited plastic surgery residency program. Members of ASAPS must be in at least their third year of active practice following ABPS certification.

st: suppress some results in latex table using outreg2 after 3sls estimation
Fri, 28 Aug 2009 11:30:17 +1000
Sorry, if I repost this question as I forgot to send my email in plain text (first time user)
I have just estimated a three-stage least square regression.
xi: reg3 ($leverage $debtmat lnsize mb abearn $ivlist ) ($debtmat $leverage $xlist i.year)
I type in the following code, but this code will produce the results from all equations (both $leverage equation and $debtmat equation) after the three-stage least square estimation.
outreg2 using tabSingleEquation, tex bdec(3) tdec(2) alpha(0.001, 0.01, 0.05) label ctitle(3SLS )
I would like to know if I can present the results from only one of the equations (e.g. the following equation ($debtmat $leverage $xlist)) in Latex Table format with -outreg2-. How should I go about it?
Thank you for your time.

14/3 Power Cord in conduit
I want to install a motion light for the steps and walkway on my open front porch. I currently have an outlet under my eave a short distance from the porch location I want to install the light. The outlet is on an indoor switch and was installed by the builder for Xmas lights. I use the outlet from time to time for various power tools in my driveway via an extension cord. I would like to keep the existing outlet, install a weatherproof outlet box, mount a raised 4 inch weatherproof box for my motion light and run a 5 foot 14/3 stranded wire power tool replacement cord from the outlet to the motion light. I am concerned that the power cord should be protected from the elements. Can I safely run the 5 foot power cord from the outlet to the light through 1/2 inch electric conduit? Would it be better to buy a length of weatherproof or underground wire and add a plug? If yes, could you recommend a very good all weather plug? I've had problems in the past with faulty plugs. Using a power cord with a molded 3-prong plug attached would be ideal for me providing it is safe. Thanks in advance!
You cannot use romex outside, period.
If you are using conduit, then run individual THWN conductors. They sell this at HD/Lowe's.
Flexible cord cannot be used as a substitute for building wiring. Use THWN conductors in conduit like Andy suggested.
It is a pain in the a$$, but you can use UF in conduit.
I guess I didn't read closely enough...i saw 14/3 and assumed he meant romex. I agree with Jim... You definitely cannot use the cord you are planning to use for building wiring.
Regardless of what kind of wire you use (which can't be flexible cord or romex), you can't plug your light into the receptacle. You need to wire it in. Since there's a receptacle right there, that won't be too difficult.
While NM-B would not be acceptable.
-- Joe
If you are intending on purchasing a light assembly mean to be hard wired, you could not wire a cord to it and plug it in.
The difference is the intended use of the device. A weather resistant "assembly complete with cord" versus a product meant to be installed per electrical codes and regulations.
-- Joe
FWIW.....I call it Romex....

Jennings Michael Burch of Brewster, New York, died on Tuesday, January 15, 2013, at the Putnam Hospital Center. He was 71.
Mr. Burch was born on April 27, 1941, in Manhattan. He was the son of the late Francis and Rita (Hogan) Burch. Chappaqua, NY, was his home for 20 years before moving to Brewster in 1998.
Mr. Burch married Susan Elmer on August 24, 1985, in Mount Kisco, NY. He is survived by his loving wife, son Jeremy Walter Michael Burch, a daughter Kelly Burch Pickow (Ward) and two grandchildren Matthew and Ashley. He was predeceased by his parents and his siblings Joseph, James, John, Jerome, Gene and Maryanne.
Mr. Burch worked as a theater manager for a number of years. He was a New York City Officer for 10 years.

The book chronicled his growing up in numerous orphanages and foster homes. He frequently spoke across the United States and Canada sharing his inspiring life story with students, and was a regular visitor to Putnam schools.
Mr. Burch wrote poetry and lyrics. He was a member of ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers). He was also a devoted Yankee fan and cared deeply for all animals. He was especially proud to be an American and expressed a deep love of country.

We,ve bought five of these for our interview rooms. We use Citrix and the Android Citrix Client turns these into touchscreen windows computers. They even supported wireless keyboards and mice straight out of the box. Highly recommended.
I absolutely see the value in these. That this platform has yet to take off underscores the point that the public largely does not understand Android and it's flexibility. Out of the box this is already more functional than the cheapest Wintel AIO and the prices on supporting software is much cheaper without a lot of loss in functionality. Look how much Office Mobile costs as opposed to MS Office. The US may not be the market, but there is definitely a market out there for this product.
/full disclosure: I work for a company that makes these too
