If you could read my mind, you wouldn't be smiling.
Samantha McAllister looks just like the rest of the popular girls in her junior class. But hidden beneath the straightened hair and expertly applied makeup is a secret that her friends would never understand: Sam has purely obsessional OCD and is consumed by a stream of dark thoughts and worries that she can't turn off. Second-guessing every move, thought, and word makes daily life a struggle, and it doesn't help that her lifelong friends will turn toxic at the first sign of a wrong outfit, wrong lunch, or wrong crush. Yet Sam knows she'd be truly crazy to leave the protection of the most popular girls in school. So when Sam meets Caroline, she has to keep her new friend with a refreshing sense of humor and no style a secret, right up there with Sam's weekly visits to her psychiatrist.
Caroline introduces Sam to the Poet's Corner, a hidden room and a tight-knit group of misfits who have been ignored by the school at large. Sam is drawn to them immediately, especially a guitar-playing guy with a talent for verse, and starts to discover a whole new side of herself. Slowly she begins to feel more "normal" than she ever has as part of the popular crowd...until she finds a new reason to question her sanity and all she holds dear.

"A thoughtful romance with a strong message about self-acceptance, [this] sensitive novel boasts strong characterizations and conflicts that many teens will relate to. Eminently readable." (Booklist)
"Sam's life begins to change on the first day of her junior year when a mysterious student introduces her to the Poet's Corner...There Sam finds artistic freedom, love, friendship–and a problem more frightening than any she's faced before. Rubinate's characterizations and a surprising ending enhance this story." (AudioFile Magazine)
Short, Simple, No Spoilers
"Nothing Special"
Interesting premise to select a girl suffering from OCD as the protagonist. However, this is not an in-depth analysis of the crippling side effects of the disorder, yet a thinly veiled attempt to add dimension. Typical story where cool girl falls for outcast with a twist so obvious from the start, I felt manipulated.
This could have been brilliant, but it's banal and the ending is implausible; don't need a Ph.D. to decipher that. Narration was bland and did not feel connected to any of the characters.
"OCD like you've never seen it!"
This will be another book I suggest to #yearofya May chat and I just loved Audible's Amy Rubinate as she narrated Samantha (Sam's) grappling with OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) from the age of 11. Sam decides to keep this secret from her friends, who are not really nice girls, and there is a slippery slope in the pecking order of their friendship. So things begin to change when one day a girl a few lockers down talks to Sam in school and as she gets to know Caroline, Sam begins to see what a true friend is. I liked how vulnerable Sam was but how strong she was when it came to swimming, confiding to her doctor in weekly sessions and trying to control her OCD's dark thoughts and obsessions. I learned so much about this disorder from this book and the author has a NOTE at the end with important information. A great read for students, teachers and guidance counselors! Highly recommended!!!
Samantha because she was so believable with her friendship with Caroline, her relationship with her doctor/therapist, her poetry, her family. I understood how important her friends were & even though they were toxic, Samantha could not talk to them about their failings and her insescurities.
I love Amy Rubinate's voice; she was perfect for Samantha as a character who is insecure, obsessive, and as the story continues delusional and then as the story ends, her voice is one of strength and happiness.
What? You got a problem with obsessions?!?
"Great story, irritating narrator"
This is one book that I would have enjoyed more in print. Usually narrators bring a story to life for me, but in this case the narrator was so irritating it actually deadened the story. The Valley Girl-type affectation and the habit of stretching syllables into different pitches and sighs was incredibly distracting and the cadence and rhythm was the same no matter what emotion was being conveyed. Props, however, to the author. The story was clever and well-researched.
We are the music makers and we are the dreamers of dreams.
"Great story read by a valley girl."
Great book for YA but the narrator's voice is so affected, I could hardly stand it. It was like listening to a 1980's valley girl. But the storyline was terrific.
"Good book!"
i love this book! but i feel sometimes the reader was too... Robotic and unfeeling... it was annoying at times but i absoloutly love this book.
I have a book addiction and an 2 hour commute, thank god for the sanity of audible
"good but could cause triggers"
narrators voice was annoying, could of used more editing as there were lots of repeated sentences but the story line was intriguing enough to keep me going.
Say something about yourself!
"I can't get past the narrator...."
I have tried a several times, but I can't get past the narrator. I know most people love it, maybe it would have been better to read than try to listen to, for me anyway.

In the Central Province of Papua New Guinea (PNG) the annual incidence of Cryptococcus neoformans meningitis was calculated at 42.8 cases/million. Men were most frequently affected (2,2:1). In immunocompetent patients 95% of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) isolates were var. gattii. Var. neoformans infection was associated with immunosuppression (p=0.009). In a cohort of 88 immunocompetent patients visual loss occurred in 52.6% of survivors and was associated with post-papilloedema optic atrophy in 60.9%. Progression to optic atrophy was associated with an abducens palsy (p=0.049) and high CSF cryptococcal antigen titres (p=0.036). Raised intracranial pressure (RICP) was not associated with visual loss. In survivors who had received corticosteroids visual deterioration was reduced (p=0.007) and blindness was less frequent (p=0.018), perhaps due to reduced immune-mediated optic nerve dysfunction. Mortality (34.1%) was associated with male sex (p=0.025), older age (p=0.0.39), altered consciousness (p<0.001), convulsions (p=0.002), and raised systolic blood pressure (p=0.017). RICP was common (81%) but did not predict outcome. Mortality may be reduced by lowering intracranial pressure in those with poor prognostic signs. Cell mediated immunity, assessed by an intradermal multi-test device, was similar in 37 cured, healthy patients and matched controls, although male patients had higher compound scores than controls (p=0.041). Male scores were higher in both patients (p=0.002) and controls (p=0.017). Three of four patients tested pre-treatment were anergic but survivors showed improved responsiveness post-treatment.

People aged 65 and older have a high risk of suffering from complications of influenza, therefore it is recommended that they receive annual influenza vaccination. However, vaccination coverage falls far short of the target of 75%. In this study we use the vaccination register to evaluate the coverage of influenza vaccine in non-institutionalised persons aged 65 and over in Navarre, Spain, in the 2010/11 season (104,427 persons). Vaccination coverage was 58.6%, lower than the 62.7% coverage in the 2009/10 season. In the multivariate analysis, lower coverage was associated with being female, age under 80 or over 94 years, immigrant status and hospitalisation in the previous year. In contrast, persons with major chronic conditions, high level of dependence or those with more visits to the general practitioner in the previous year had higher vaccination coverage. Influenza vaccination in the previous season was a strong predictor of vaccination in the current season (odds ratio: 37.0, 95% confidence interval: 35.7–38.4). The vaccination register has been shown to be useful to monitor the coverage of influenza vaccination in seniors and may help guide strategies to improve coverage.
Computerised vaccination records have been shown to be useful in reducing the frequency of missed opportunities for immunisation, facilitating reminder notices, preventing over-immunisation, and providing information about immunisation delivery and documentation on a population level [1,2]. Vaccination records can also be useful tools for clinicians and public health officials, for monitoring immunisation coverage and for providing feedback to clinicians, patients and case management workers [3,4].
Seasonal influenza can cause serious complications in the elderly and in subjects with chronic health conditions. Annual vaccination against influenza is the most effective measure for reducing morbidity and mortality associated with this disease [5-7]. In Spain, the recommendations for preventing seasonal influenza include annual vaccination of all people aged 65 and over, but the coverage reached in this population is far from the 75% target proposed by the World Health Assembly for 2010 [8]. This highlights the importance of monitoring the vaccination coverage and identifying possible ways to improve it.
The present study aims to explore the utility of a population-based vaccination register to quantify seasonal influenza vaccine coverage and to describe its determinants in non-institutionalised subjects aged 65 and older.
Vaccination register
The Regional Health Service of Navarre, Spain, provides free healthcare to approximately 97% of the population of the region (642,051 inhabitants). All Navarre residents at birth are registered into the healthcare computerised system and people who change their residence to Navarre are registered at the first visit to a healthcare centre. From 2000 to 2004 the computerised medical record was implemented throughout the whole Navarre Health Service, in both hospitals and primary care. A specific section in the computerised medical record is provided to register vaccinations. Whenever health professionals administer a dose of vaccine they must register online the type of vaccine, dose number, brand, batch, date of administration, person who administers it and possible incidents. The type and brand of vaccine are registered using predefined codes to avoid errors and make it easier to consult the information recorded. Software filters are applied to ensure valid data entry. The same registration system is used for all vaccines, both those administered in childhood or adult vaccination programmes and all other vaccines that are not included in these programmes. The information in this register is available to the physician and is part of each patient's computerised medical record. It provides an alert about the doses required to complete the vaccination schedules and performs the functions of the vaccination record, regardless of whether the patient retains a paper copy.
The information contained in the vaccination register is exported weekly to an individual-level database. In this format, the information from the vaccine register can be linked to other databases (as described below) with complementary data, such as data on demographics or data on incidence of vaccine-preventable diseases. The combined data can be used to monitor the coverage of each vaccine, to plan improvements in coverage, to detect vaccine failures and to evaluate the effectiveness of different vaccines.
Influenza vaccination campaign
In the 2010/11 season, the influenza vaccination campaign in Navarre took place from 11 October to 26 November, following a system similar to that used in previous seasons [9]. The trivalent inactivated vaccine was used, with the composition recommended by the World Health Organization [10]. In Navarre, the vaccine was indicated for all persons aged 60 and over, and for persons with chronic diseases that increase the risk of influenza complications [9]. The vaccines for this programme were purchased centrally by the regional government and were distributed to all primary healthcare centres. Before the vaccination campaign began, an information campaign focusing on the target population was carried out by means of posters in the healthcare centres and notices in the media to let people know the population groups for whom the vaccine was indicated and where they could go to be vaccinated. Physicians and nurses in primary care centres were sent a detailed protocol of the programme with the objectives, dates, indications, logistics, instructions on how to register the doses administered, and phone numbers for further information [9]. Healthcare staff in the healthcare centres took advantage of all contacts with patients to remind them of the benefits of being vaccinated against influenza.
Study population and variables
Using computerised databases of physicians, we selected all non-institutionalised persons aged 65 and older who were covered by the Navarre Health Service at the beginning of the vaccination campaign. According to the national and regional protocols all subjects in this study population had indication for influenza vaccination [9]. From the computerised database of primary healthcare, we obtained the following baseline variables: sex, age, migrant status, district of residence, major chronic conditions, high level of dependence (Barthel's index <40), number of outpatient visits during the previous 12 months and hospitalisation in the previous 12 months. Residence in municipalities with more than 10,000 inhabitants was considered urban and any other was defined as rural. The major chronic conditions were defined according to the International Classification of Primary Care, version 2 [11], and included: heart disease (K71, K74-77, K81-K84, K99), lung disease (R79, R95, R96, R99), renal disease (U99), cancer (A79, B72-B74, D74-D78, F74, H75, K72, L71, N74, N76, R84, R85, S77, S79, T71, T73, U75-U77, U79, W72-W73, X75-X77, X81, Y77-Y79), diabetes (T89, T90), liver cirrhosis (D97), dementia (P70), stroke (K90, K91), immunodeficiency or transplants (B78, B79, B90, D28, K28, U28), rheumatic disease (L88) and morbid obesity (body mass index of 40 kg/m2 or greater).
From the vaccination register we obtained information on influenza vaccination in the 2010/11 season, as well as influenza vaccination in the three previous seasons. Individuals with no information on vaccination status were considered unvaccinated.
The Navarre Ethical Committee for Medical Research approved the study protocol.
This study was conducted in Navarre after the 2010/11 influenza vaccination campaign was concluded. The distribution of the baseline covariates in the population was evaluated. Age was categorised in 5-year groups, and number of outpatient visits in the previous year was categorised in tertiles.
Influenza vaccine coverage in the 2010/11 season was quantified as the percentage of people vaccinated in each population group. This data was compared with coverage in the previous seasons which was calculated the same way as for 2010/11. Possible determinants of influenza vaccine coverage in the 2010/11 season were investigated using univariate and multivariate logistic regression models. The analyses were conducted using SPSS 18.
Characteristics of the population
A total of 104,427 non-institutionalised individuals aged 65 or older were included in the analysis. They represented 94.4% of the population in this age group in the region. The 5.6% remaining were those who were institutionalised or people without coverage by the public healthcare service of Navarre. Some 32,536 (31%) were aged 80 or older, 58,715 (56%) were women, and 59,378 (57%) presented at least one major chronic condition, most frequently, heart disease (21,333, 20%) or diabetes (20,827, 20%), and 12,191 (12%) had been hospitalised in the previous year (Table 1).
Table 1. Characteristics of the population aged 65 and older and respective 2010/11 seasonal influenza vaccine coverage, Navarre, Spain (n=104,427)
Influenza vaccine coverage in the 2010/11 season
Overall influenza vaccine coverage reached 58.6% of the study population. The coverage was slightly higher in men (59.5%) and differed by age group, with the highest vaccine coverage observed for the 85 to 89 year age group (67.1%) and the lowest for subjects older than 99 years (31.3%) or aged 65 to 69 years (45.8%).
Subjects with major chronic conditions were more likely to be vaccinated, and an upward trend was seen with increasing number of diseases. People with renal (67.7%), pulmonary (67.2%) and heart diseases (66.8%) had the highest vaccination rates.
The proportion of vaccinated people increased with the number of visits as outpatient in the previous year, from 46.2% in subjects with zero to three visits to 68.4% in those with more than seven visits.
The highest influenza vaccine coverage was observed in subjects who had been vaccinated in all three previous seasons (90.8%). Vaccination coverage was also high in subjects who had been vaccinated against influenza in the 2009/10 season (86.7%).
Similar coverage was observed among persons with urban or rural residence. Immigrants had the lowest vaccination rates (31.9%) (Table 1).
Determinants of seasonal influenza vaccine coverage
Multivariate analyses showed that having at least one major chronic condition, more than three visits as an outpatient in the previous year, and high level of dependence were associated with greater vaccination uptake. Age was significantly associated with vaccine uptake, especially in the age group 85 to 89 years (odds ratio (OR): 2.18, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.09–2.27) and 80 to 84 years (OR: 2.17, 95% CI: 2.07–2.28) as compared with those aged 65 to 69. On the other hand, being female, being older than 99 years of age, being an immigrant or having been hospitalised in the previous year were associated with a lower seasonal vaccination uptake. Residence in an urban area was not significantly associated with differences in seasonal influenza vaccine coverage (Table 2).
Table 2. Determinants of 2010/11 seasonal influenza vaccine coverage, Navarre, Spain (n=104,427)
When each type of major chronic condition was considered separately after adjusting for all other covariates, vaccination rates were found to be higher among people with pulmonary disease (OR: 1.25, 95% CI: 1.20–1.30), diabetes and heart disease (OR: 1.18, 95% CI: 1.14–1.22 for both diseases). Non-haematological cancer and renal disease were also associated with significantly higher influenza vaccine coverage. The other chronic conditions evaluated were not associated with vaccination uptake (Figure).
Figure. Major chronic conditions as determinants of 2010/11 seasonal influenza vaccine coverage, Navarre, Spain (n=104,427)
When influenza vaccination in the previous season was introduced in the adjusted model, it was found to be a strong predictor of vaccination in the current season (OR: 37.0, 95% CI: 35.7–38.4). Having been vaccinated in all three previous seasons improved the predictive value (OR: 55.8, 95% CI: 53.5–58.2) (Table 3).
Table 3. Previous seasonal influenza vaccinations as determinants of 2010/11 seasonal influenza vaccine uptake, Navarre, Spain (n=104,427)
Time trends in vaccine coverage
The vaccine register made it possible to obtain estimates of influenza vaccination coverage in seniors in the most recent seasons using comparable criteria. In 2006 influenza vaccine coverage in non-institutionalised persons aged 65 or over was 59.9%, rising to 61.3% in 2007 and peaking at 62.7% in the 2008/09 and 2009/10 seasons. The coverage achieved in the 2010 campaign (58.6%) represents a decline with respect to coverage in the previous campaign (p<0.001) and breaks the previous upward trend.
Our results show the utility of the vaccination register in monitoring the coverage of influenza vaccination in seniors in Navarre and in identifying factors that affect this coverage.
Vaccination registries have been shown to be useful in clinical assessment and in estimating coverage [12]. In Navarre, the vaccine register is used primarily so that physicians and nurses can consult the vaccine status of their patients at any time and to programme the dates to administer the doses of the vaccine schedule. This register allows more rigorous research, because it contains individual-level information that can be used to conduct population-based studies to measure the impact of vaccination programmes, to evaluate vaccine effectiveness, and to monitor vaccine safety [13-21].
Although the completeness and accuracy of the vaccine register have not been evaluated in Navarre, there are multiple data that support it. The number of doses registered is very close to the number of doses distributed from the regional vaccination programme, and the small differences can be explained on the basis of stock, expired doses, cold chain failure or other incidents. No discrepancies have been detected in healthcare or public health practice between the vaccination data in the register and the information in patients' vaccination records. The person who administers the vaccine documents it at the same time. Furthermore, one of the indicators used in quality assurance of primary care in Navarre is the vaccination coverage in people for whom the vaccine was indicated, which serves as an incentive for physicians to record all doses administered.
Vaccination registries make it possible to evaluate coverage continually in the whole population in a way that is comparable over time. Vaccination coverage has also been studied through surveys in population samples [22-24]. Although the coverage of influenza vaccination in our study (58.6%) is within the range of what other authors have reported [22-24], it is far from the programme objective and leaves considerable margin for improvement [8]. Vaccination coverage in Navarre had increased in recent years through efforts to improve information and vaccine uptake. However, coverage fell appreciably after the influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 pandemic in 2009. Women had lower vaccination coverage than men, and people with chronic conditions were more likely to be immunised, in particular those with pulmonary disease, diabetes or heart disease. All these results are consistent with what has been described in the literature [22,25]. However, coverage in persons with major chronic conditions could still be improved. Hospitalisation in the previous year was associated with a lower probability of vaccination, which suggests that in these patients' primary care, measures like vaccinations may be forgotten, despite the fact that their potential benefit in these persons may be even greater.
Influenza vaccination in previous seasons was a strong predictor of vaccination in the current season, which shows that efforts to improve vaccine uptake may be rewarded by increased commitment to the programme in successive seasons. It is likely that people's objections to and reservations about the vaccine are largely overcome after being vaccinated for the first time.
Although influenza vaccination is considered an effective measure against influenza, the decision whether or not to accept the vaccine is influenced by many factors. Low immunisation coverage is usually attributed to a combination of patient characteristics, beliefs and attitudes about vaccines, and barriers to access [22]. In this study we only evaluated factors depending on the subject, even though some healthcare factors may also influence the vaccination coverage achieved. Some authors have pointed out that the single most important factor is the recommendation of a healthcare professional [24]. When vaccination in elderly people has been explored, perceptions of enjoying good health and the feeling of not being susceptible to influenza were the reasons most frequently mentioned for non-compliance. It was also associated with the opinion that the complications of influenza were not dangerous [25].
Our results demonstrate the need to improve influenza vaccination coverage in Navarre. Activities should be directed to increasing awareness of those who belong to high-risk groups, encouraging healthcare workers to proactively propose influenza vaccination, promoting the use of patient reminders, and developing effective communication and education campaigns [6,26].
The Navarre vaccine register has been shown to be a useful tool in determining vaccine coverage in the population, its evolution over time, and the influence of different factors. This information has made it possible to detect possible ways to improve coverage and may aid the design of more efficient measures to achieve this objective.

Character Origins
Tom's original design was a 12-year-old blonde with black gloves and jacket along with blue jeans sneakers and a red-and-white striped shirt. Hr and Kaz were also meant to be archenemies, with Tom allying himself with the OverWorlders and Kaz with the UnderWorlders.
Tom is a regular human teenager. He has black hair and blue eyes. His skin is a bit more tanned than some of the other characters. He Always wears a grey t-shirt with a target symbol on it and blue jeans and trainers.
Background Information
Tom Majors is Mainly an OverWorld player. He's a beginner to Chaotic, and knows less about things than his friends do about the world's of Chaotic and Perim. Despite his lack of knowledge Tom is an excellent player, especially when using Maxxor. At first, he was very shocked and overwhelmed when he first transported to Chaotic, transforming into his Creatures, and experiencing the battle "for real." Tom quickly gets over his fears and confusion
Personality and Behaviour
Tom is a Bold--maybe too bold--risk taker and thrill seeker. He loves playing Chaotic, exploring Perim, and experiencing excitement and adventure. He always helps those in need his selflassness sometimes surprises other Chaotic players and Creatures alike, like when he kept his promise to Smildon to cure the disease destroying Prexxor Chasm. He cares a lot about his friends Sarah, Kaz, and Peyton as well as the well-being of the creatures of Perim with whom he isn't enemies with. It's hinted that Tom has a crush on Sarah.

Atkins hosts its 6th Women's Business Network Conference in Dubai - 02 November 2016
WBN's Chair outlines plans & initiatives for reaching out to wider business community at 6th conference
The Middle East & Africa Women's Business Network (WBN) – an internal group set up by Atkins in the region to drive gender diversity across the industry - held its 6th conference last Tuesday, October 25th 2016 at the Burjuman Arjaan Hotel under the banner of "Step Forward – Enabling you to reach your potential".
Kathleen McGrail, chairperson of the WBN opened the conference with a detailed outline of the WBN's vision and ambitions for women in the construction industry and shared the WBN's progress and initiatives, which includes regular networking events, coaching and mentoring, and collaboration with other women's business and networking groups.
Kathleen McGrail further emphasised "The next phase for the WBN is geared towards harnessing the positive energy & efforts thus far towards encouraging other business leaders to support the retention of talented women and achieving senior roles in the industry whilst continuing to focus on mentoring and coaching women within the organisation."
Kathleen's opening remarks were followed by Ms Donna Sultan, CEO of KEO International Consultants & keynote speaker to the event at the invitation of Atkins. Ms Sultan spoke to an audience of 150 women and men about her journey to becoming a respected leader in a typically male dominated industry. She discussed how she rose through the ranks through an impeccable work ethic, mental fortitude, and a dedication to the well-being of others to become a successful & internationally recognized woman while also providing insights into how to deal with the challenges and tribulations of being a female in an industry that has generally preferred to maintain the status quo.
Activities & lectures at the conference highlighted the benefits the construction industry stands to gain from the growing number of talented and ambitious women who are building their careers in the sector providing them with the tools necessary to successfully develop their careers, navigate conflicts, and negotiate effectively through confidence building exercises and leadership development workshops.
The Women's Business Network was launched in August 2014 as a regional community for women to share their experiences, gain support across the Atkins group of businesses in the region including Faithful+Gould, Atkins Acuity & Atkins Energy, and most importantly to retain and attract women into the business and create a positive gender balance in senior roles moving forward.
It continues to garner strong support from internal and external stakeholders all looking to promote gender diversity balance in a traditionally male-dominated industry.

The Best Yet
I am reluctant to say a course is the best on Udemy because there are so many different courses covering many different subjects approaches etc. OK. Well for this course i am going to put discernment before my principle ! This course is probably the best course on Udemy..phew there i said it ! why? Because it covers the fundamentals of life of growth in very simple step by step way. A lot of common sense here..but don't sniff at that...commons sense is not very common. And to find a teacher of this calibre who has a way of making you sweat: (and smile) Truly a gift what a heaven sent course this is - by Paul Soffe,

Insidious Assassins(2015)
An anthology of stories edited by Weldon Burge
There is a peculiar allure of insidious characters - and especially assassins, hit men, and their ilk. Perhaps we find their uncomplicated moral codes and brutal efficiency appealing. These characters care little about ethics - and perhaps that alone, that freedom from guilt, is exactly why we love them. Perhaps, deep down, we wish we could be like them. And perhaps, by reading stories with such characters, we can vicariously experience that thrill. With this fascination with evil characters in mind, Smart Rhino Publications decided to publish this anthology, Insidious Assassins, a sequel to Uncommon Assassins. The book contains 24 stories by some of the best horror, suspense, science fiction, and fantasy authors writing today. Here you will meet some truly insidious characters--characters you may find yourself applauding when you know you shouldn't. Enjoy!

umm yeah everyone who said it was hard to get into this position was right. my bf had a really tough time making this work, and once he actually was able to get going and get a good rhythm going and everything he stopped after maybe 10 minutes because he said it was uncomfortable. i did play with his balls a little and i enjoyed seeing him enter me from this position, pretty hot, but he was totally not into it
A variation on the Reverse Amazon, this time with the man on top; the Brute can be one of the tougher man-on-top positions. It is not the easiest position to get into, but it does give the giver a sense of control and power that is absent or low in most positions. To get into this position, the giver squats over their partner (facing away) while resting on the back of their partner's legs, which are brought towards their chest to expose them at a unique angle. If the giver is comfortable with their balance, they can reach behind and under to give their partner some additional manual stimulation.
My boyfriend found it very hard to get in in this position and when he did it hurt do much I screamed really loud but it did turn me on. I played with his balls a lot. Any pain they give you girls give it back by pulling their balls. This position made him feel so much bigger
Tried this a few times with the missus... She loves it because of the view she gets of me sliding in and out of her pussy, and I get my balls played with (:
Its a bit of a challenge to get into though!
Not sure I would enjoy this position. I like to be in control when me & my wife get busy. No complaints thus far...
that looks like he could get hurt pretty easily :S
this is my favorite sex position. i like to lower my penis into my wife. when i do this she screams my name. i like that a lot. sometimes my penis hurts when we do this. i like it. i am a robot.
Looks fun................but uncomfortable at the same time.
Hello. You said the brute looks fun. Maybe you would like to try it with someone?
This is hard to perform and can be really uncomfortable for both. Be careful because of potential injuries.
oh! really... Thanks.
My wife saw this and said "I like that one " I thought she was only joking until later that night when we were having sex she told me we were going to try Brute. It turned me on hearing her give the comand. It took some positioning but we made it and from what I heard she really liked this position.
Im not sure I would want to try this one, it looks uncomfortable not only for the guy but the girl as well. I would much rather 69 or cowgirl position.
There is one position that I do not see on this site, and it's a hybrid of "The Brute", the "Ex", and the "Pile Driver Reverse" positions.
Some have commented that these positions look (or in fact are) uncomfortable. Try this: start in the Brute position, and instead of the man squatting or sitting on the woman, have the man lean forward onto his hands and knees.
In this way, the man is not bending his penis in a potentially uncomfortable way for him, and the woman is not forced to bear all of his weight.
An additional feature to this position is that the woman can fondle the man's balls and anus, and has a wonderful view of the whole experience!
And just remember, not everyone is built the same; some men's cocks do not stand straight up when erect, so they do not have the same issue with "bending" in an uncomfortable way.
U are absolutly right. Please send me your mail id. I have a clip for the positions told by you.
Yeah this is really hot stufff, me and my boy toy practice this one all the time in the dumpster behind Taco Bell! I love his juicey man thang (all 3 inches) up in my durrty kooter!!
once we were uste to eachother, and were ready for more than missionary... we were on here and my gal pointed this out. tried it and found that, event with a spinn of of this... its not cofertable. there is little penitration and it leaves my cock soar
looks like she's fuckin him in the ass, only I suppose she's not?
would be something my man would like,but i don't know if his dick big enough ,only 7" might try it anyway and see if we can make it work for us
id like to do this but it seems like it might be painful
you would have to break your dick to do that pleasurably
A man has a relatively flexible penis. Larger cocks usually are.
It reminds me of silence of the lambs. "I'd fuck me!" Haha.
Looks hard to do O.o
how can we direct downwards a rock hard dick :S? i dont think it gives pleasure

How to get fields in one line?Asked by Benflips on July 12, 2016 at 09:53 AM
I have another open query that will hopefully help me get all fields on one line (by reducing padding and so on) if I end up deleting this widget, and return to just using text boxes for my alternate postal address however...
Some suggestions to make this widget more user-friendly...hopefully this can be implemented...

Kara (Revision 52)
Premiered on March 7, 2012 at the Game Developer's Conference, the "Kara" presentation is the first technological demonstration of the new engine developer Quantic Dream created for its next project.
The Kara Demo is a 'short film', generated via a prototype running in real-time on PlayStation 3 hardware. According to the developer, the demo "is concept only and is not taken from any software title currently in development."
In the demo, a female android named "Kara" is constructed by a machine. As she is being created, her AI comes online and she conversates with an unseen plant director. At first, she is excited to be created, but as she becomes more aware of her purpose (her model is designed as a sex device,) she becomes emotional -- afraid and angered. The overseer recognizes this awareness as a bug in the system and begins to disassemble Kara, but she pleads with him to let her live. Going against protocol, the overseer allows Kara to be completed and 'boxed up' alongside several other similar models, despite her lifelike qualities and the danger that unleashing such an artificial lifeform into the world might bring with it.

You may have heard the news that the IRS is opening the 2017 tax filing season on January 23, 2017, but there's no need to wait until then to file your 2016 taxes. We have exciting news! TurboTax is accepting tax returns today so that you can be one of the first in line for your maximum tax refund.
Here are 10 quick tips to help you get a jump-start on your tax refund:
1. Gather Your Documents in One Place
Gather your documents, forms, and receipts for tax-deductible expenses in one place so you don't forget anything. TurboTax asks simple questions specific to you, but having your documents ready to go will save you time. Keep a folder next to where your mail comes in. When W-2s, 1099s, and other relevant forms start to roll in, you can keep them together in an easily accessible spot. Also, always have a copy of your prior year tax return in case you need to access your prior year adjusted gross income when you file.
2. Go Online and File
According to the IRS , self-prepared tax preparation was up over 5% last tax season. When you go online with TurboTax it's easy to file your taxes. You don't need to know anything about tax laws and tax forms. TurboTax asks simple questions about your life like, "Did you get married?" or "Did you have a baby?" and personalizes the program to you so you only see questions related to you. You can also take advantage of TurboTax new product enhancements to help you get your taxes done with confidence.
3. Don't Overpay to Get Your Taxes Done
About 60 million taxpayers have a simple tax return (1040 EZ or 1040A), but they are paying too much to get their taxes done by taking them to someone when they can do them themselves. With TurboTax Absolute Zero you can e-file your Federal and State tax returns for absolutely free if you can file Form 1040EZ or 1040A. TurboTax also does not charge to file forms to comply with the health care law and the Earned Income Tax Credit like other tax companies.
4. File Anywhere, Anytime
With TurboTax you get the luxury of filing your taxes seamlessly across devices, anytime and anywhere you want. You can conveniently jump-start your taxes by snapping a photo of your W-2 with your phone or tablet, and watch as your information is securely put into the correct tax forms eliminating data entry. You can start on your phone, take a break, and finish your taxes on your computer.
5. E-file with Direct Deposit
When you go online and file with TurboTax you can e-file with direct deposit. E-file with direct deposit is the fastest way to get your federal tax refund. The IRS states that nine out of 10 taxpayers who e-file with direct deposit will receive their federal tax refund within 21 days or less. The IRS opens for e-file January 23. When you file your taxes with TurboTax today, TurboTax encrypts your data and will safely and securely hold your taxes and securely transmit them to the IRS when they open on January 23 so you can be one of the first in line for your tax refund.
6. Import your Financial Information
Payroll providers and financial institutions are required to issue your tax forms like W-2s and 1099s by January 31, but you don't need to wait for those forms to start your taxes. TurboTax can securely import tax information directly from more than 1.3 million employers and financial institutions, eliminating data entry and increasing accuracy for effortless tax preparation.
7. Remember 2016
It's not hard to remember big things like getting married or having a baby, but our lives are busy and some little expenses can add up to big tax deductions. Don't forget to have receipts in hand for expenses related to your job search, day camp for the kids, charitable donations, and medical expenses to name a few, when you sit down to file your taxes. These additional expenses may help you get a bigger tax refund.
8. Double Check Social Security Numbers
Make sure you have your correct social security numbers before sitting down to file your taxes. You need to include correct social security numbers for you, your spouse, and dependents in order to get valuable tax credits and deductions like personal exemptions worth up to $4,050 each and the Earned Income Tax Credit worth up to $6,269 for three or more kids.
9. Don't Wait to File
Last year about 75% of taxpayers received a tax refund and the average tax refund was close to $2.800, so there is no reason to wait to file your taxes.
10. TurboTax is Here So You are Never Alone
Even though TurboTax makes tax prep easy, you may have a tax question. Don't worry. TurboTax has personalized expert help so you are never left alone.
TurboTax is up to date with the latest tax laws, including the health care law and you can easily and accurately file your taxes with TurboTax today.

"Every dance has some historic significance," said John Rodi, executive director of the Komenka music and dance group.
The New Orleans-based group performs folk songs and dances, some of them centuries old, all over the world. Locals can experience Komenka this weekend when the 40-member ensemble stages its 34th annual spring concert at 7:30 p.m., Saturday, May 31, and 2 p.m., Sunday, June 1, in Louis J. Roussel Hall of Loyola University.
The performance will showcase traditional songs and dances from Macedonia, Azerbaijan, India, Hawaii, Japan, Mexico, Russia and Scotland, Rodi said.
Komenka, named for a river in Romania, was founded in 1979. In the group's earliest days, most of the dances were Eastern European.
Civilization in that ancient part of the world dates back to at least the fourth century B.C. The Central Balkan peninsula, which today includes the Republic of Macedonia and parts of Greece and Bulgaria, was occupied over the centuries by the neighboring Roman, Slavic, Bulgar and Ottoman empires.
The resulting rich cultural history gave rise to unique folk dances and music styles, and Gypsies carried Balkan music all over the world, Rodi said.
Mark Petersen, who has danced 25 years with Komenka, said the pastime incorporates everything he loves. A University of New Orleans instructor of English as a Second Language, Petersen is fascinated by language and foreign cultures.
Performing locally and at dance festivals on a dozen European and Russian tours has been like "living geography," Petersen said.
The dances express the culture, work and aspirations of ancient tribes.
A flirtatious Macedonia women's dance incorporates complex but light-hearted steps; it's followed by an energetic men's dance demonstrating their strength and agility, Rodi said.
The Macedonian segment also includes a fast-paced dance done by the region's coal miners. The rapid pace symbolizes the miners' desire to live life to the fullest despite the industry's dangers, Rodi said, and the dancers' scooping foot movements mimic their digging.
The spring concert goes far beyond the Balkans, including a balletic Scottish dance and a traditional Hawaiian dance. Guest choreographer, Lakshmi Ramachandran created a Bollywood dance based on folk music originating in four regions of India.
The Mexican dance, "Jarabe Nayarita," celebrates a successful sugar cane harvest. Komenka's stylized choreography includes footwork influenced by Spain: beautiful swirling skirt movements and daring swings of machetes.
When Komenka tours, as it will in July to Germany and Poland, it takes a completely American music and dance performance from Mardi Gras to rock 'n' roll.
Every dance from every country has a special stomp, a spin, a twist and a turn, and it's fascinating to see what they have in common, said Kate Arthurs, a Jesuit High School music teacher who directs a dedicated choral group of singers plus several instrumentalists to accompany the dancers. Sometimes, music and dance are a region's only common language.
"It is important to learn the diction and stories behind them," she said.

I've been searching the web for a way to disable HTML backgrounds (stationary) in Outlook 2003/2007 with a GPO. Is this possible?
I've seen quite a few attempts by others online by disabling menus, but these carry-over into Microsoft Word.
Has anyone successfully disabled stationary in Outlook 2003/2007 with a GPO?

I saw the first and third ones, which was causing multiple issues. But I am going to give the first one a whirl anyway.
Thanks for your help.
Oct 22, 2009 at 6:10 UTC
Ok, I've managed to get this to work.
Basically, the user still has the option to choose stationary, but the options are defaulted as soon as they exit the options window.
This works, but I have a feeling that I will be getting calls from users about their stationary not functioning.
Has anyone found a way to disable (grey) the stationary options all together?

Although it's slipped in popularity in recent years, Emily is one of the most common names in the English language for girls. That widespread appeal is a fairly recent occurrence, however; Emily did not come in to common usage in English-speaking countries until the 1700s when the German House of Hanover took the British Throne. Princess Amelia Sophia was often referred to as "Emily" at that time.

Emily is from the Roman family name, Aemilius, which is derived from a Latin word meaning "rival."

While she still ranks among the Top 100 names of the decade, Emily has fallen slightly behind newer favorites such as Sophia, Isabella, Emma, Olivia, and Ava. All of the top ten names seem to be part of a trend of parents choosing old-fashioned, classic names that have timeless charm. Emily was the #1 baby girl name from 2000 to 2007 and as of 2014, the name Emily was ranked #7 in popular baby girl names by the Social Security Administration.

These days, many parents have opted to shift from the former reigning queen of "Emily" to the new feminine twist of "Emma." For example, a popular ABC Family show called "Baby Daddy" features the main character baby as a little girl named Emma. And then of course, there is the actress that every knows and loves, Emma Stone.

But Emily is still a well-loved choice for many parents seeking a classic-sounding, feminine name for their baby girl. And the decline in the overall popularity of the name may make it an appealing option for parents who want their daughter's name to be unique, but traditional.

Middle Names for Emily

In recent years Emily Rose and Emily Kate have been very popular middle name choices. Emily is a versatile name that pairs well with many other names. Matches such as Emily Claire, Emily Jane, ad Emily Marie are also strong options.

Emily Nicknames and Related Names

Emily is often shortened to the nicknames Em and Emmie. Currently, there are many spelling variations of Emily including Emely, Emilee, Emilie, Emmalee. Some say that some of the newer names, like Amelia and Emmeline are spin-offs of Emily too.

Sibling Name Suggestions

If parents are looking for a baby name that complements Emily they might consider another three- syllable name, another name beginning with the letter E, or a name that has a similarly traditional feel. similarly been familiar for an extended time period. For sisters, the options include Elizabeth, Erica, Hannah, Hailey, Megan, Jessica, Rachel, or Samantha. For Emily's brother, good options include Benjamin, David, Eric, Ethan, Jackson, or William.

Famous Women Named Emily

There is no shortage of famous women named Emily, both in history and in modern times, including several notable literary Emilys. The reclusive poet Emily Dickinson has influenced a generation of writers, and Emily Bronte wrote one of the top novels in English literature in Wuthering Heights. There are several well-known actresses named Emily, including Emily Blunt, Emily Deschanel and Emily Watson. Other celebrities named Emily include: Emily Maynard, who was a fan favorite contestant on season 8 of the popular show The Bachelor and Emily Deschanel, who has a very famous sister named Zooey Deschanel, who recently became a mom herself.

Twenty-five years ago, they decided they had had enough of each other. They started living separately in 1979 and filed for divorce in 1983. On Tuesday, they finally got what they have wanted for decades the legal sanction to separate.
As the war of the roses raged on, the couples only child, then a one-year-old girl, grew up and got married. The lawyer representing one of them died, leaving his junior to see the case to its logical legal conclusion. The one thing constant in all this while is the political establishment that came to power the year the two got married.
This, in a nutshell, is the broken world of Bimal Kumar Guha and Gaurirani Guha, a world that for all purposes crumbled within a couple of years of their marriage in 1977, but took another 24 years to come legally undone. They both walked out of the court on Tuesday, divorced, with the woman being accompanied by her 25-year-old married daughter.
Bimal, employed with the West Bengal State Electricity Board in Krishnagar, married Gaurirani, a resident of Shantipurs Dhakapara, in 1977.
The daughter was born a year later, but the split started showing soon after. Amidst a flurry of allegations, they decided to separate. That was 1979, and the infant girl went with her mother.
In 1983, Bimal moved the district court in Nadia for a divorce. His estranged wife filed another case and both repeated the allegations that had led to their estrangement.
But the judge was unimpressed. Neither of them had been able to prove his or her allegations, he said, dismissing the case on grounds of insufficient evidence.
Bimal then came to Calcutta High Court, in 1984, and thus began the long wait for a court sanction for a marriage gone sour. But both estranged husband and wife and their lawyers played a part in the delay, court officials claimed. If the case was listed for a day, one or the other would not turn up, they explained. Besides, both changed lawyers several times, causing further delay.
A few days ago, high court lawyer Uttam Majumdar realised that his late seniors name had cropped up in the list of cases to be heard. I used to act as the junior when the case first came to this court, Majumdar said on Tuesday. I had all but forgotten about this case, as my client (Bimal), too, appeared to have forgotten all about it.
But Tuesday was D-day. A division bench, comprising Justice Ajay Nath Ray and Justice Jayatosh Banerjee, heard out the case on Tuesday and granted divorce. A Supreme Court directive granting divorce to couples staying separately for a considerable time acted as the basis for the division benchs decision.

We were the only guests at this sweet, quirky little Riad in Essaouira for three nights between Christmas and New Years, and found it a nice budget option. The courtyard is lovely with a burbling fountain, the rooms were very generously sized and very clean. We had the yellow and red rooms, which the riad advertises as good for families as they share a private landing and we enjoyed having our own little sitting area between the two. Closet space in the yellow room is very ample. The only real complaint with the building was the shower in the red room--the water was hot, but very difficult to regulate, and ended up either scalding or freezing. Beds were really good, and there were radiators in the rooms, which were very comfortable in the cold weather. We noted that the owners leave their clothes and papers in these rooms, and Ilham commented: we have trust in our guests!
Ilham was unbelievably helpful, extremely responsive to every email request I sent, and arranged transport for us to and from Essaouira, but since we were the only guests, the staff left the riad when they were done with their housekeeping. We were given the key to the riad so we could come and go as we pleased. The same thing happened when we ate dinner in, we asked for dinner at 8, and a fire, and the room was set up really beautifully with a blazing fire, then the food was all brought in at once and the staff left for the night.
We were asked about breakfast, and requested boiled eggs--they were presented each day in addition to the basic Moroccan continental, which was accompanied by the Riad's own fig preserves, a very nice touch. The day we left it was very very early, so they made us little takeaway packages for our breakfast which was much appreciated. There is a terrace, but it was only partially furnished, and we weren't offered the option of having our breakfast up there, they may have thought it wasn't warm enough and I didn't ask, largely because I didn't think of it until I saw guests at a neighboring riad eating on theirs. The dinner we had was lamb with artichoke hearts and peas, which we hadn't seen on any other menu, and was a nice change, and although it was only December 30th, they comped us a bottle of wine, which was a lovely touch. We speak French, and I don't think the staff have English, so you'll need to have French to communicate.

COLUMBUS, Ga. — When Augusta State and Montevallo first met on Jan. 28 in Montevallo, Ala., the Jaguars led by as many as 18 points in the second half before Montevallo came roaring back to post an eight-point victory.
History repeated itself Saturday night at the Lumpkin Center in the semifinals of the Peach Belt Conference Tournament, as Augusta State held a 15-point lead late in the first half and saw it evaporate as the Falcons rallied to win, 63-59.
The win sends Montevallo (23-7) into today's 4:30 p.m. championship game against Columbus State.
"This game started out the same as last time," said Montevallo coach Danny Young. "The only difference was when we played them at our place, they got on us at the start of the game and tonight they made a big run late in the first half. But we came out in the second half with a renewed energy and commitment to executing on the offensive end."
While the Falcons have already punched their ticket to the NCAA Tournament, Augusta State (17-11) must play the waiting game to see if it receives an at-large bid. The Jaguars were No. 8 in this week's Southeast Region rankings and defeated No. 7 Georgia College in the quarterfinals of the tournament on Friday.
"There are a lot of things that could occur," said Augusta State coach Dip Metress, who was visibly upset at the postgame press conference. "As long as there aren't any upsets in the other conferences, we should be playing (in the NCAA Tournament)."
The Jaguars led by as many as 16 in the first half and took a 36-25 lead into halftime.
Augusta State was still up 45-34 with 16:04 remaining, but the Falcons went on a 14-2 run over the next 6:13 to take a 48-47 lead. The Jaguars got a three-point play by O'Neal Armstrong to go up 53-50 with 7:12 to go, but Augusta State didn't make another field goal for seven-plus minutes, allowing Montevallo to take control.
The Falcons took the lead for good at 54-53 on a basket by D.J. Rivera with 5:43 remaining and despite missing 7 of 8 free throws during a stretch of 1:35, Montevallo used strong rebounding and tenacious defense to hold on.

|The Joker believes this article is lacking a certain flair -
namely some good quality images.. you could just leave the article without pictures but really now.. where's the fun in that?'
Demigods are minor characters in the God of War series. Demigods are children of a god and a mortal human (Half Human, Half God). Most of the Demigods are enemies towards Kratos (Who's also a Demigod), whether it be tasked to kill him, Kratos is in their way, or they provoked him to fight them. Unlike the original versions of the demigods in the mythology, these versions of the demigods have had their past altered which is shown by Perseus as he was unable to save his love from the kraken and had partially gone insane due to the sisters trials. Hercules is a different example because he was possessed by the evils jealousy and envy which made him harbour feelings of hatred towards Kratos. These demigods are darker and more villainous than the actual mythological story.
Known Demigods
- Kratos: Son of Zeus and Callisto.
- Deimos: Son of Zeus and Callisto, younger brother of Kratos.
- Hercules: Son of Zeus and Alcemene. Champion of Hera.
- Theseus: Son of Poseidon and a Aethra. Guardian of the Steeds of Time.
- Perseus: Son of Zeus and Danae.
- Pollux: Son of Zeus and a mortal woman
- Peirithous: Son of Zeus and a mortal woman.

Malibu, Calif. - The No. 2 Pepperdine men's tennis team will appear in its second straight NCAA Round of 16 as it handed TCU a 4-0 defeat in the second round on Sunday at the Ralphs-Straus Tennis Center in Malibu, Calif. The Waves (32-2) will meet Florida (17-7) on Saturday, May 20 at noon at the Taube Tennis Center in Stanford, Calif.
The Waves, who defeated TCU earlier in the season, never gave the Horned Frogs a chance as they dominated the match from the start. The No. 47 Wave duo of Ivor Lovrak and Pedro Rico defeated Andrei Mlendea and Cosmin Cotet 8-3 at court two, while the No. 3 doubles team of Scott Doerner and Andre Begemann put away No. 27 Jordan Freitas and Rafael Abreu 8-5 at court one to win the doubles point.
Pepperdine took a 3-0 lead when Richard Johnson crushed Radu Barbu 6-0, 6-3 at No. 5 and No. 31 Rico defeated No. 91 Abreu 6-4, 6-2 at No. 2. After a 3-0 deficit in the first set, Omar Altmann fought back to defeat Freitas 6-4 and then clinched the match with a 6-2 win in the second set.
When the match was abandoned, Doerner led 6-1, 4-3 over No. 34 Mlendea at No. 1, while Lovrak led 7-5, 3-3 at No. 3. Begemann lost the first set to Cotet, but was leading 4-2 in the second set at court four.
Head coach Adam Steinberg could not be more excited for his team. "I'm so happy for the seniors and also for our new players to experience the Sweet 16 for the first time. It was a tough match against TCU and it feels great to get through the match today."
