I've become really close with this guy over the last two years and I know he likes me too, but he's really shy and won't act on it. I'm really shy too and don't want to scare him off by being forward enough to just go up and kiss him. What can I do to make him realize I like him too and to maybe put the idea of kissing me in his mind? lol
How do I get him to kiss me?

A COMMITTEE member of Ipswich Mayor Paul Pisasale's campaign fund Forward Ipswich says he was unaware it was involved in fundraising for political purposes.
Queensland developer Dan Gorman said meetings for Cr Pisasale's campaign fund Forward Ipswich were held in the mayor's office at the Ipswich City Council chambers.
He said he believed Forward Ipswich was a community fund and did not know it was the mayor's chief fundraising body for his election campaigns.
"I must be silly but I have never realised that," Mr Gorman said. "I've never, ever seen anything go towards a campaign fund."
He said the last Forward Ipswich committee meeting was held in Cr Pisasale's office in the Ipswich City Council building in Roderick St.
A second committee member, Sean Clift – Cr Pisasale's council-paid adviser – confirmed meetings for Forward Ipswich were held at council.
Cr Pisasale said last week Forward Ipswich's "primary purpose" was political and conceded that community events it funded were used to promote him.
"Yeah, well it is," Cr Pisasale said when asked whether Forward Ipswich's primary purpose was political.
"It is primarily set up as my campaign committee," he said. "That was its prime purpose.
"Because I think you know whether you are running an ad in the paper or hold a community event it still promotes me."
Cr Pisasale questioned whether he had to declare donations to Forward Ipswich when the money was later put toward charity events, but said he had so far declared to "be on the safe side".
"Forward Ipswich gives me all the money," he said. "Forward Ipswich has got no money.
"Forward Ipswich has only got what the people give it.
"It (money) goes in the account and needs two signatures to sign it," he said, adding it had $100,000 left in it from last election.
PROBE: Ipswich mayor received donations from AWH
EMAILS: Mayor acted as intermediary between developer, donor and officials
AWH: Ipswich mayor orders review of campaign fund
Last week Cr Pisasale provided a list of Forward Ipswich committee members, which included his council PA Heather Gunn and Sean Clift.
Mr Clift said he was aware Forward Ipswich was a political campaign fund as well as a community fund, but said "as far as I'm aware no money is used for a campaign unless there's a campaign on".
When questioned yesterday about holding Forward Ipswich meetings in his council office, Cr Pisasale responded a "separate campaign committee and office is established external to council premises at election time with different people".
"Forward Ipswich meets on community-related matters and all minutes confirm this," he said.
Council has refused to provide a copy of the minutes.
Cr Pisasale has announced a review of Forward Ipswich, the Mayor's Community Fund and any links between council and Australian Water Holdings, under investigation by the ICAC.

What Kind Of Styrofoam For 3D Elmo Head?
Decorating By Kiddiekakes Updated 28 Jan 2010 , 9:42pm by RobzC8kz
I may have a large order for a 3D Elmo....What styrofoam ball is better for the head ?The white rough kind that is difficult to poke anything into like skewers (Which I will need to do) or the soft green floral foam that is really easy to poke things in to....Or if I can find the really soft styrofoam but it is very hard to find nowadays and doesn't usually come in a ball but here's to hoping...
What would you use?
Thanks Laurel
Actually, I would use RKT. If you're determined to use foam, do NOT use floral foam! It chips and flakes too easily, NOT good for use with food! Use the hard, white foam.
Ahhhh.. You're right RKT...I should have thought of that but I'm concerned it will be too heavy.Thanks for the tip about the green foam..
I used rkt for my elmos head and it was fine. Good luck!!
I've made three large 3D Elmo's and used the white styrofoam balls for the heads each time. What I do for skewers and stuff (like the "neck" and whatnot) is I punch a pilot hole into the "naked" styrofoam before I start decorating it. Then once I'm finished, I can insert the skewers/sharpened dowls into the head without much effort!
If you want a more snug "first punch" fit to your holes, use a slightly smaller skewer/dowl then the one you're using for the finish! You'll have to push a tad bit harder to seat it, but it will go in much easier than "virgin" sytrofoam, and still be as snug.
Hope this helps! I've used this techique on my Wow Wow Wubbzy cake, Elmo cakes, etc. Works great!

Travel Guide Africa Botswana Kasane
© All Rights Reserved acarrico
Kasane is a small town in the far northeast of Botswana situated on the Chobe River. It is the administrative centre for the Chobe District and has a population of under 10,000. It's close to Africa's 'Four Corners' where the borders of four countries almost (but don't quite) meet: Namibia, Zambia, Botswana and Zimbabwe. It is the gateway to those countries as well as to nearby Chobe National Park.
The town sits at the northeastern boundary of the Chobe National Park, and is quite often a stop-off for tourists looking to visit the Okavango Delta, Victoria Falls and the Caprivi Strip.
Kasane Airport (BBK) serves a few destinations including Maun and Gaborone in Botswana and Johannesburg in South Africa.
Kasane is connected by good tarred roads to the rest of Botswana and to the borders with Namibia, Zambia (to the ferry) and Zimbabwe. Getting off the beaten track (for example to Chobe National Park) requires a 4wd vehicle though, except if you are travelling through the park on your way to Namibia.
There are minibuses to Maun and Francistown, leaving when full. Note that the Maun minibuses go via Nata - you would be advised to take one of the earlier minibuses (around 6:00am) from Kasane in order that you can ensure a connection in Nata to make it through to Maun in one day.
There are transfers by minibus in the morning to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe (2 hours), some of them organized by lodges and for guests only. Coming the other way, your options to reach the border from Victoria Falls are a shared taxi costing $6 (Oct 2009), a private taxi costing $25 (Oct 2009), or hitching (possibly with one of the rafting companies that goes to the border empty in order to bring back customers - expect to pay about $10). A minibus from the border to Kasane takes about 20 minutes and costs P3 (Oct 2009).
Although not immediately starting in Kasane, the nearby river crossing to Zambia by the Kazungula Ferry is an option often used by travellers who don't want to travel through Zimbabwe.
There is not much public transport in Kasane. Many destinations (between Chobe Safari Lodge and Mowana) are within 2 kilometres of each other, so you can get around well by foot. If you need a ride, you are best off with your own vehicle. Or, your lodge or safari operator may offer a transfer.
Most of the town itself is easily navigated on foot. Kasane is laid out along the south bank of the Chobe River, and the main road follows the river's course. Thus the city is pretty linear.
Many of the hotels have in-house dining rooms offering breakfast and dinner:
The major hotels all have bars.
Cheap accommodation in Kasane is in short supply, so book in advance unless you come in low season.
View our map of accommodation in Kasane or use the form below to search for availability (Travellerspoint receives a commission for bookings made through the form)
Internet in the town centre costs P25 per hour.
See also International Telephone Calls
The country calling code to Botswana is 267. To make an international call from Botswana, the code is 00.
BotswanaPost is the national postal service of Botswana. It is operating more than 100 post offices and 70 agencies throughout the country and is fairly reliable, albeit not overly fast. All post has to go overland through Gaborone first and international mail by plane might go via Johannesburg, so count on several weeks for your postcard or letter to be delivered to places in Europe or North America. You can use them for parcels as well, though faster and more expensive services are available by companies like TNT, UPS or DHL.
We have a comprehensive list of accommodation in Kasane searchable right here on Travellerspoint. You can use our map to quickly compare budget, mid-range or top of the range accommodation in Kasane and areas nearby.

This solid walnut Victorian chair is from the Renaissance Revival period. The carvings are reminiscent of John Jelliff of Newark NJ. He was a highly regarded cabinetmaker in the Victorian era. The chair has an ornately carved crest with central medallion of a woman. Additional bold carvings and roundels extend along the corners of the back. The chair rests on its original brass casters. We purchased this chair with no upholstery on it. We had our upholster get it to the point all you have to do is to add your fabric or it is serviceable as is with the white cotton covering. The chair's size and design makes it quite comfortable. The frame's finish is in excellent condition. 42"high and the seat is 16" high. Condition: Very Good, Circa: 1860-1870's.

The "New Swedish Pewter" collection was created prior to Svenskt Tenn's 80-year anniversary in 2004. It was developed by 10 female Swedish designers to honour Svenskt Tenn's founder Estrid Ericsson. One of the designers was glass artist Ingegerd Råman who designed the Moondrop plate. The plate is made of polished pewter and it mirrors its surroundings with its beautiful, billowy surface.

Landers Sets 14.922 Track Record for Dirt Late Model Dream at Eldora
Ninety-one cars made the trek from every corner of the country to head to the Midwest to run one of the most prestigious races in dirt track racing, the Dirt Late Model Dream. This year marks the seventeenth annual event at the Big E.
Among those 91 drivers was the man with the most wins in the Dream, Scott Bloomquist, who is seeking his sixth win in the event. Last year's main event winner Billy Moyer was also looking to secure the win and become a back-to-back Dream winner. Ohio native, Matt Miller, most recent winner at the speedway in the Johnny Appleseed Classic, has already turned some laps at the track this season, that he hopes will lead him to a victory in the esteemed race. Ten different drivers have won the main event and have added their names to the history books, so who will it be this year?
If you ask the drivers in any series of late model racing what their biggest win, or sought out win would be, most will say it's the Dirt Late Model Dream. With one of the biggest purses in any dirt track racing event of $100,000, it's easy to see why any driver would like to pull in to victory lane at the Big E.
Wednesday kicked off the week of events at Eldora Speedway with the Prelude to the Dream. But as it's name implies, the event was only a prelude to something much bigger. Fans have lined up, filling the camping areas around the speedway, flying their flags and gearing up for the main event. Tech inspection began Thursday and Friday afternoon, drivers were able to take to the track for the first time this week for hot laps.
In hot laps, the fastest man on the track was Kid Rocket, Josh Richards, laying down a lap of 15.305 only a tenth off of the track record. Some of the other drivers at the top of the chart included the 0 of Black Sunshine, Scott Bloomquist; the 21 of Mr. Smooth, Billy Moyer, the 44 of Chris Madden, and the 44 of the Hurricane, Earl Pearson Jr.
After the first round of qualifying, two things were evident, the weather was going to be a nightmare and so was the fast qualifier. Duane Chamberlain was the first to break the record with a lap of 15.204, then Chris Madden was the next to break it again with a 15.027 lap. The Newport Nightmare, Jimmy Owens, slaughtered the track record with a 14.968, the first fourteen second lap ever run on the historic half mile in a late model. Some other top speeds in qualifying were Owens in the 20, Madden in the 44 and the 23 of Duane Chamberlain.
With threatening weather in the area, track officials were able to get through 91 cars in the first session of qualifying in under 40 minutes. The clouds were rolling in, but drivers were already on the grid ready to head out for round two of qualifying. After 52 of the 91 drivers had made their second run around the half mile, with 26 of those drivers bettering their first run times, the heavens opened up and the rain began falling hard on the track. As the rules go, if any qualifying run is not completed by all drivers, those times will be thrown out, and the entire group will restart. The first qualifying run was completed, so if the weather keeps the second qualifying run from happening, the heat race inversion will be based off the first round of qualifying speeds.
Track workers took to the surface as soon as the rain had seized at about 8:30 p.m., determined to get round two in. Sure enough, at 10:10, hot laps were underway. Owens' new track record looked as though it was going to stick, but Jared Landers proved otherwise. Landers took his 777 machine around the half mile, breaking the record yet again, with a 14.922 second lap around the high banks! At the conclusion of round two of qualifying, 53 of the 79 cars that took laps in round two bettered their first session time.

The night ended with the spinning of the inversion wheel, which revealed the number six. Tomorrow night, officials will invert six for the heat races to line up the A-main for the Dirt Late Model Dream.
Tune in tomorrow night for a full recap of the Dream at Eldora Speedway, as well as a photo gallery of the nation's best late model drivers.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -
The University of Wyoming divers opened competition Friday at the Air Force Diving Invitational inside the Cadet Natatorium in Colorado Springs, and finished the two-day event this afternoon. The invite featured 73 divers from 12 different teams.
Of the 11 women's teams at the invitational, the Cowgirls finished in first place with 101 total points, the Pokes finished in fifth of the seven men's teams that competed with 57 total points. As a team, Wyoming finished in fourth place of the 12 total teams.
To get things started for UW on Friday, senior Kari Campbell took second place in the women's 1-meter competition with a score of 282.25. She was just shy of her season-best score of 286.80 against Denver on Jan. 9.
Sophomore Keely Bishop placed eighth (249.40) on the 1-meter event, while junior Lauren Puglisi tied for ninth with a score of 241.40. Campbell also took third (214.20) on the platform to lead the Cowgirls. It became the top-finish for UW in the platform event this season.
"I thought it was a good weekend for us," UW head diving coach Kyle Bogner said. "It was nice to have a final tune-up moving forward into the conference championships next week. There were a few of our divers that stepped up and competed very well against other divers in our conference."
Also on the platform, Bishop finished sixth (206.35), and Puglisi recorded a score of 186.20 for 21st, while freshmen Peyton GrandPre (158.85) finished the event in 31st, CeeJay Harris finished with a score of 141.75 and Chynna Randall scored a 120.15.
"The competition was strong for both the men and women this weekend," Bogner added. "We knew it would be a challenge for us, as there were teams that have been diving very well all year. I liked the way we finished up against that tough competition and we are looking forward to the conference meets."
Junior Jacob Rehmeier and sophomore Austin Rettinghouse were the only two Cowboys competing at the invitational. Rehmeier finished ninth on the 3-meter event for the Pokes, while Rettinghouse had a score of 263.35 in the prelims. Rehmeier's 3-meter score of 302.30 was his best all season.
On the men's platform, Rettinghouse and Rehmeier finished seventh and eighth, respectively. Rettinghouse recorded a score of 270.95, while Rehmeier posted a 247.00. Rettinghouse also made the final in the 1-meter competition, as he finished in seventh place (298.50).
Campbell posted another top-three finish in the women's 3-meter final. She recorded a score of 306.50 to once again lead the Cowgirls.
The Cowgirls return to action in College Station, Texas, at the Mountain West Championships on Feb. 17-20, as the Pokes are off until the Western Athletic Conference Championships on Feb. 24-27. The WAC Championships will be held in Houston, Texas.

Puppy Grooming
All dogs need at least a little grooming to maintain a healthy coat and improved appearance and smell. The amount of grooming your puppy requires depends on their breed and the type of coat they have. Starting your puppy's grooming regime early will make maintaining their coat much easier throughout their life.
There are actions you can take at home, like brushing and combing, which will help maintain your puppy's coat between professional grooming appointments. In addition to helping your pup look and smell great, they'll also love spending time with you and it'll increase the bond you share!
Puppy Grooming at Home
- Check your puppy over – The first step in the grooming process is to carefully check your dog over for any cuts or wounds, unusual lumps and bumps or skin irritations. Check for fleas or ticks and look at the condition of your dog's eyes and overall health.
- Brush – Brush your puppy through with a high quality slicker brush. Brushing your puppy at home for just five minutes per day will get them used to being touched from top to tail and help prepare them for their professional grooming appointments. It will also strengthen your bond!
- Comb – Comb their coat through with a wide-tooth comb (for wiry, coarse coats) or a fine toothed comb (for softer, more manageable coats). Be careful not to miss tricky spots like behind the ears, under the collar etc., where matts and tangles are most common.
If you're tempted to trim your puppy's coat, our advice is to instead book in with a professional groomer; they have all of the tools and knowledge to keep your dog safe during the trimming process.
Bathing your Puppy
Grooming your puppy at home doesn't always need to involve a bath. In fact, it's best to limit your buddy's baths to every six to eight weeks, unless they're especially dirty. This helps their coat restore the essential oils it needs to stop it becoming dry and damaged.
If your pup is in need of a good soap-up however, here are our favorite tips to help you through puppy's bath-time.
- Prepare for puppy's bath– Firstly, decide where you will bathe your puppy and ensure the location is warm and secure. Dress in comfortable clothes that you won't mind getting wet – it's likely that you'll be as soaked as your puppy during bath time! Place an old towel or mat in the bottom of the bath tub to prevent your pup from slipping around too much and becoming frightened or injured.
- Run the bath– Before puppy gets in the bath, fill it with warm water. Just as you would with a baby, you should always test whether the water is too hot or too cold and adjust the temperature before you put your pup in. Fill the tub to just below your pup's elbows, as most puppies will be comfortable in this depth of water.
- Bathing– Gently lower your puppy into the tub while speaking to him in a calm and soothing voice. Use a cup to gently pour water over your pup's back and legs. Avoid his face, ears and head at this early stage. Ensure you have a mild, puppy-appropriate shampoo on hand and use only a small amount: approximately the size of 10 cent piece should do the trick. Gently work the shampoo along your buddy's back, legs and all other areas. To wash your puppy's face and head, use a cloth, dipped in lukewarm water and wrung out. Be gentle and avoid the eyes as much as possible.
Never use a human shampoo on your puppy as it can be quite harsh and irritate your puppy's gentle skin.
- Rinse thoroughly– Rinse your puppy with warm, clean water. It's important to be thorough as any residual shampoo can irritate your puppy's skin. You will need to rinse your puppy several times to ensure that all of the suds have been removed.
- Dry– Take your pup out of the bath and start to soak up excess water by wrapping him snuggly in a towel. Give your pup a good towel dry (depending on your puppy's coat, you may need an extra dry towel on hand for this). Continue to towel dry your pup or, if your puppy is calm and relaxed, use a hair dryer on a low and warm – not hot – setting. Be careful not to place the hair dryer too close to your pup, or near the face or eyes. Continue to move the hair dryer back and forth to avoid your puppy becoming hot in one area. Unless sit is a chilly day, you will not need to dry puppy off completely; ensuring that most of the water is removed from the coat will be enough.
- Have fun! Be sure to give you puppy loads of praise throughout the entire grooming process. Using upbeat and cheerful tones (not to mention a treat every now and then!) will help make the whole experience more enjoyable for the both of you.
Many dogs experience anxiety when being bathed, brushed or blow-dried, so it's important you get them used to this from an early age – especially if their breed and coat requires regular grooming.
Grooming your puppy for the first time
Your puppy can be professionally groomed from eight weeks old, as soon as they're received their second vaccination. The earlier your puppy feels relaxed and comfortable being groomed, the easier the process will be in the long term. Many PETstock stores offer professional instore grooming in a salon environment. PETstock groomers are experienced and skilled in grooming young puppies and offer a special (and free!) 'Puppy's First Groom' option for pups aged up to 16 weeks.
Your puppy's first groom will include:
- Comb
- Brush
- Tidy of face, feet, tail and sanitary areas
- Nail clip
- Socialization and lots of cuddles!
Connect with your local PETstock store to see if they offer pet grooming and make an appointment today.

The DFRduino Nano USB Microcontroller V3.1 (ATMega 328) is a breadboard ready version of the Arduino mini with integrated USB. The Nano has everything that the Diecimila has (electronically) with more analog input pins and an on-board +5V AREF jumper. The Nano automatically senses and switches to the higher power supply, so there is no need for a power select jumper.
The nano's pin layout works well with the Mini or the Basic Stamp (TX, RX, ATN, GND on one top, power and ground on the other). The DFRobot DFRduino Nano USB Microcontroller V3.1 (ATMega 328) can be powered via the mini-B USB connection, 6-20V unregulated external power supply (pin 30), or 5V regulated external power supply (pin 27). The power source is automatically selected to the highest voltage source.
Version History
- v3.0 - improved the analog port pin mapping to be compatible with original Arduino Nano
- v3.1 - changed the Mini USB port to Micro USB port
- Microcontroller: Atmel Atmega328-20AU
- Operating Voltage (logic level): 5V
- Input Voltage (recommended): 7-12V
- Input Voltage (limits): 6-20V
- Digital I/O Pins: 14 (of which 6 provide PWM output)
- Analog Input Pins: 8
- DC Current per I/O Pin: 40 mA
- Flash Memory: 32 KB (of which 2KB used by bootloader)
- Clock Speed: 16 MHz
- DFRduino Nano V3 x1

A form appears incomplete on my iPhone 6Asked by leebar on August 25, 2015 at 11:04 AM
A form I built in August 2014 for my website now appears incomplete (missing the last 2 entries and the submit button) on my iPhone 6. It's fine however, on the computer. How can I correct that problem. It has me stymied.
The screenshot from my iPhone is not forwarding well (as you can see) so I have to just say that the last three entries which include the submit button are missing.
Thank you for your help.
Barry Lee
JotForm Support
Hi Barry,
I've found the form in this page http://www.ineedalocalpainter.com/IneedALocalPainter.com%20Contact%20J.%20Garcia%20Pereira%20Painting%20for%20a%20Free%20Estimate%20and%20Limited-Time%20Offer.htm and I noticed the problem using my Android Device.
The issue here is that you have a fixed height for the form container. I would suggest adjusting the height and make it a dynamic one so it will automatically expand based on its content. If not, you can increase the height to fix it:
In your iWeb builder, simply drag down the HTML snippet to increase its height.

Obama Arrives in Canada for First International Trip
Thursday, February 19, 2009; 11:34 AM
OTTAWA, Feb. 19 -- President Obama touched down Thursday morning in this snowy Canadian capital -- his first foray outside the United States as president -- and headed for discussion of trade and the environment with Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
Air Force One landed at the Ottawa airport at 10:24 a.m. in steady snow and was greeted by Governor General Michaelle Jean, the representative here of Britain's Queen Elizabeth, Canada's sovereign. Obama planned to hold an hour-long meeting with Harper in his office at Parliament Hill before adjourning for what White House officials described as a "working lunch."
The pair will hold a joint news conference scheduled for 2:45 p.m. Eastern time at which aides said they intend to answer four questions. Obama also plans to talk with opposition leader Michael Ignatieff.
Obama will then return to the United States after spending about seven hours in Canada.
The president is accompanied on the brief trip by Carol M. Browner, the White House energy and climate coordinator, and he is expected to jointly sign with Harper a technical agreement on science and technology that could be a precursor to a broader climate change pact between the two countries.
Also on the trip is Economic Council Chairman Lawrence H. Summers, National Security Adviser James L. Jones and Deputy Secretary of State James B. Steinberg. Aides said the economic crisis and Afghanistan will also be on the agenda.
The Canada trip is a tradition for new presidents, who are encouraged to make the trip north early in their administrations. President George W. Bush made a brief visit first to Mexico before visiting Canada.
A top Obama aide said this week that the president's main message to Harper will be to reassure Canadians that the United States intends to maintain a robust trading relationship with its neighbor.
"This is no time to -- for anybody to give the impression that somehow we are interested in less rather than more trade," said Denis McDonough, deputy national security adviser. "And that's what -- that's the message that he'll underscore."
McDonough said the discussion will include some reassurances from Obama that "Buy American" trade provisions inserted into the economic stimulus legislation the president signed this week will not adversely affect trade.
Canadian officials were alarmed by the provision, which some think runs afoul of the bilateral trade agreements that guarantee unfettered commerce.
"The provision is obviously going to be implemented consistent with our international trade obligations, with our WTO obligations and with our NAFTA obligations," McDonough told reporters. "So I think my sense is . . . there will be no need to take umbrage or to be uneasy."

Stardew Valley: How to Hatch Eggs in an Incubator
In Stardew Valley, the first livestock you'll be able to get once building a Coop are chickens. These lay eggs every day so long as they're happy. But how come you can't just raise your own chicks from the egg?
Well, you'll need to upgrade your coop at least once (from Robin, the Carpenter) before you'll get the incubator. This will be an extra part of your new coop that will allow you to put an egg in it. Within several days, a baby chick will hatch! Not only chicks, either. You'll also be able to incubate duck eggs, and even dinosaur eggs!
It's a great source of income to incubate an egg (especially duck eggs) and then selling the newborn hatchling. No attachment. No care for the name. They're just coins to you.

just right for the price
No overall complaint. It keeps my smoothies cold all day. The only issue is that one of the stainless steel cups. Sometimes when I go to unscrew it from the thermos, the stainless steel shell detaches from the plastic cup. I push back on and it may not happen again for a week or so. Just a slight nuisance. I like this product and would recommend it.Read More

Keeps my tea hot throughout the day of work
This thermos keeps my green hot tea hot from the morning to late afternoon while at work. I make my tea at work and keep it by the desk. The size is good if you drink a lot or plan to share with others because it is a 1-liter is plenty for you and your buddies. I don't have to get up and buy a drink or having to make more, I just have it ready right there, very convenient. In the negative side. To clean it you have to have a bottle brush long enough to reach the bottom specially if you want to keep it spotless, but this is just me. I don't want to build stains, we will see.Read More
Thanks other reviewers, very happy with purchase
Thanks to reading other reviews, I felt more confident in placing my order for this product. I was very happy when I received them (bought 2). Having the 2 cups is very handy. Nice to also have the carrying case. Great to take to work or on a road trip. They looked just like they were advertised. Ive used them for soup and tea and its keep them steaming and nearly boiling hot for over 5 hours+, so be careful. Because of the length/depth I need to get special cleaning tools if I dont want to keep using the dishwasher to clean them. Otherwise, Im thrilled. I wish I had gotten them sooner.Read More

Please show your Helsana Card any time you need to see a doctor, go to hospital or visit a pharmacy, whether at home or abroad. This will simplify the billing process with Helsana and help to save costs.
|What does the cost participation consist of?
The Federal Health Insurance Act provides for insured parties to participate in their recovery expenses. This cost participation consists of three components: deductible, excess and contribution to a hospital stay. The amount of your cost participation is determined by the year in which treatment took place.
|How do refunds work?
After you have been to the doctor, therapist or in hospital, these service providers send you the invoice. According to the Federal Health Insurance Act, and unless otherwise agreed with the service provider, you are the fee debtor. This means that you are responsible for paying this invoice. Send this invoice with the adhesive label applied to the Helsana Group. Please indicate whether you received treatment due to "illness", an "accident" or "pregnancy". We will check the invoice and refund you the amount to which you are entitled according to your insurance cover after deducting your cost participation.
We have a contractual agreement in place with various service providers for direct payment of bills: we receive invoices directly from the service provider (hospital, doctor, therapist, etc.) and pay them directly to the service provider. We then charge you the cost participation and any "uninsured" amount.
Set of labels
You can help to speed up the billing process with your personal set of labels.
|How to save money with Helsana
Discounts thanks to new payment frequencies
We offer a premium discount to insured parties who pay their insurance premium in advance every six months or once a year. 1% discount for annual pre-payment of your due insurance premiums and 0.5% for pre-payment every six months. You can claim a premium reduction if you have compulsory health insurance (basic insurance) with a health insurer recognised by the Swiss federal government and your income and assets are low enough to qualify you for financial support.

Ignoring my impulse and desire to know what Charles knew of Jude's sex history I went with something less scandalous. "How did you meet Jude?"
"He was checking me out at the gym so I followed him home and fucked his brains out."
Of course I was taking a sip and spit it out. "What!"
"Yep, he was not the hunky stud he is now at that time. He was hot and good looking but not the muscle stud. I had a think back in those days when a guy would check me out I would see if I could get him to give it up. They always did so the challenge became how quickly. Fuck that was fun."
Retrieving a towel from the kitchen I wiped up my mess, the spilled drink. "Weren't expecting that were you." He laughed.
"No I wasn't."
"Jude was a bit of a slut in those days. I was too, shit a lot of us were. Young, free and hormones racing, how could we not fuck like rabbits?"
"Jude mentioned he had a run of sluttiness."
"After that we would fuck after working out, went on for about a year. That was how he got into working out and I tell ya, I sort of stopped nailing him when he became the hunk he is today."
"Do you regret it?" How sad to stop getting to fuck a guy when he turns into a muscular stud.
"Nope. We both decided we would rather stop fucking and be friends. Most of the time fuck buddies grow tired of it and move on and it's over. But Jude, he is a great guy, a really good friend, I can get ass anytime, a great friend, those are harder to find."
Not knowing what to say I took a drink.
"How about you? Someone mentioned you had a boyfriend."
"I do. Terry. He's great, first guy I ever fell for."
"But..." he was leading me into revealing something.
"But what?"
"Why are you alone on a Friday night?"
"He has hit a rough spot, needs to find a new job and isn't up for going out."
"So there isn't trouble in paradise?"
"What? No. You know how it is, sometimes you just want to be alone and figure things out."
"Is he cheating?"
That took me by surprise. "No, he isn't. Besides we have an agreement."
"Ah. I see."
Feeling uncomfortable talking about my situation I turned it around. "How about you? Boyfriend? Lover? Stable of willing hunks?"
He laughed. "Oh Sam, you are funny. Nope. No boyfriend. No lover, no stable."
"I guess you can find some without even trying."
"Ok, I accept that and yes, it is pretty easy to find some when I want it. How about you? Finding some when Terry isn't available easy enough?"
It took a moment to think about that question. "Well, sort of, I guess. I mean...guys seem pretty willing but sometimes I don't...I don't know. I guess yes it is easy enough."
"Cheers to that!"
Taking that sip something clicked. "Charles?"
"Do you want to fuck me?"
He didn't smile. He didn't move. He looked in thought. "Do I want to fuck you?" He said very slowly. "Tell you what. Let me see what you are offering and then I will decide."
What a jerk. Fuck I wanted him. Standing up I started to undress. My cock was already happy and I was feeling no pain from the cocktails. After I was naked I faced him. He twirled his fingers around so I turned to show my ass.
"Sam, I am going to fuck you for hours."
My cock sprang to full hard on.
"But first you need to make a commitment."
Fuck, the last time I did that...
"I want you to look at my cock and decide that yes, you are committed to it. You can say no, I won't be mad or anything, and just suck me off. But if you commit I will expect to fuck you like a race horse."
Gulp. "Ok."
He stood up, unhooked his belt, opened his fly, pushed his pants down far enough his briefs were fully showing and reached into them. They were black so I could see what his bulge was, damn mood lighting. He pulled out a cock that was not hard but thick, veiny and generous. "It gets bigger Sam. Some guys just can't take it. Think about it. If you don't think you can take it, say so."
If his cock was hard and the same size it would be a rock star grade A piece of meat, I could take it. But bigger? It would hurt.
"Fuck me Charles. Don't stop until you're through."
A smile spread over his face like a beam from a lighthouse fog light. "Fuck yeah kid, this is going to be amazing. Sit down."
Why he wanted me to sit down I had no idea, but I did.
He put his cock back into his briefs and began to unbutton his shirt. His chest was broad, smooth and two heavy slabs of muscle. His nipples were large, very dark and the center stuck out like a nub I could get lost sucking and chewing on. His shoulders were outstanding and they continued into arms, my god they were huge! The sides of his chest were ripped, his abs were ripped, he had a fucking eight-pack going on. I caught myself panting like a dog.
He rubbed one hand across his torso down to his pants and slowly removed them. The action pushed his bulge out and the amount of flesh moving inside was, for a gay boy like me, better than a briefcase full of hundred dollar bills. His thighs were tree trunks that were perfectly in line to support that solid body above them. He looked at me as he folded the pants and set them next to his shirt. He smiled. My cock was already hard; if it were possible it would have gotten harder. "The point of no return Sam." And he slides his briefs down. His cock was full but not erect, his balls were a double handful and hung half way to his head. He stepped out of the briefs as I marveled at his legs. Standing completely naked in front of me he smiled again.
Leaning forward he raised one hand, one finger and waved it at me. "No no no, sit back." No way was I going to ignore him. He then began to stroke his cock. Watching him was enough to make me want to cum. Shit, if this was a video or some cam action I would be shooting my load all over myself. But it was real, it was happening a few feet away from me. He continued to stroke and pull his cock and balls until he reached full erection.
"Come and suck it kid."
Crawling on my hands and knees on and over the ottoman I remained that way, mouth open, tongue out, reaching for his cock. He teased me a bit, moving his hips so his cock would sway back and forth. If I weren't so horny I would have been ticked. I kept trying to catch it, at least lick it just a little bit. He played this game for a few minutes. "You want this piece inside you don't you kid?"
"More than anything." And my tongue was out and waiting as soon as I finished the word.
"Going to let me fuck you until the sun rises?"
I nodded.
"Going to take a pounding like a jackhammer digging a hole?"
I nodded.
"Going to give that nice pink hole of yours to me to abuse until I blast you full of my man juice?"
"God Yes!"
"I am going to bring you to a new world Sam." And he brought his beautiful cock to my tongue. I used my tongue to guide him in and wrapped my lips around his sizable head using as much force as possible. He pulled it out and offered it up again. We went back and forth as I produced enough spit to lube up for more shaft.
Head in my mouth I worked my saliva glands as hard as possible. He was reading my mind and when I felt I was ready, how he knows I don't know. He fed the entire shaft to me. I gagged, not too badly but enough to let us both know he wasn't feeding me a hot dog. Shit this was a giant brat.
The man knew how to feed a mouth. He slowly moved in and out, we were in synch as I came to take the entire thing without gagging. My mind raced at how talented I had become at deep throating cock. He moved his hands to my head and held it while fucking my face. It wasn't rough, it wasn't fast, it was glorious. Pulling his entire cock out told me to flip. I rolled onto my back. He kneeled on the ottoman and lowered his balls to my open mouth. Smooth, full and absolutely perfect I bathed them. Sucking one ball in at a time and bringing my lips to as tight a hold as I could on his sack I sucked and tongued it. Switching balls to do the same and repeat.
He leaned forward and pushed his cock down. Reaching for it I sucked it in and he slowly began to fuck my throat. This was amazing. He could remain like this for hours and I wouldn't get bored. Lost in the joy and high of having a full hard cock and matching set of balls I was in heaven.
He stood up and pulled his cock from me. Leaning over he reached under my arms and raised me up, then he tossed me over his shoulder. I yelped, not in pain but completely stunned he could flip me around like a blanket. My hands reached for his chest to balance myself. I didn't need to help him, he had a firm grip on me, but I wanted to feel his strength. He walked to my room, reached over to flip on the light and tossed my onto my bed. The entire moment sent a wow factor unlike any I have ever had. This man of steel was going to fuck me. Shit.
He smiled. "Like that huh?"
"I like it all Charles."
He bent over me and kissed me. Chills went through my body. He tasted like the Manhattan and male. I loved it. After sucking my tongue until it felt like it was going to come off he pushed up and walked to the end of my bed. "Over."
I turned onto my stomach. His strong warm hands encircled each ankle and he spread my legs open. I felt the bed sink as he crawled between my legs and that anticipated moment when his hands would spread my ass. The feeling of a man's hand, especially when each hand can grab an entire cheek, squeezing them and then separating them is such a turn on. I knew I was leaking. His tongue wasted no time flicking at my bud. I moaned. It was the first moan of hundreds that would follow for the next half hour or more while I rimmed me like a champion. Tongue, fingers, and a combination of the two he warmed, relaxed and eased my ass to the point where he knew he would be able to use it as he wanted. I had no complaints.
Charles got off the bed. "Where's your lube?"
"In the nightstand." I rolled onto my back and slid a finger into my hole; it was wet, warm and ready.
He opened the drawer as his cock, standing straight up, thick and incredibly veiny bobbed. He pulled out the lube, popped it open and dribbled it over his cock. Closing it and dropping it on the bed next to me he walked to the foot as he slicked up his meat. At my feet he reached down and pulled me to the end of the bed, lifting my legs he made room to go in. "Sam, your ass is outstanding, I am so ready to make it mine. You ready?"
"Have been for hours."
He laughed and then moved my body into just the position he wanted grabbed his cock and aimed. That head, large as it was had to work it's way in. I tried to remain relaxed and when he finally got past that first ring he stopped. "Ready?"
"Give me all you got Stud."
That was the wrong thing to say. He leaned in and his entire cock, head to balls entered me. Yelping was impossible to hold back. Opening my eyes we made that eye contact. "No, it's good, go." I tried to speak loudly but my words were but a whisper. He smiled and gently began to fuck me. I could feel the veins; I could feel the head I could feel my entire body exploding. The pain was intense but I wanted him inside me so badly I grit my teeth and started to chat yes.
Leaning over me he stopped moving and kissed me. I could feel his chest on mine, I felt puny. His kiss was warm and full. We remained in the same position for a while as my body became accustomed to his cock filling it. He must have felt when I was ready. He stood up slowly, dragging his tongue over my nipples. He began to slowly fuck me.
Opening my eyes I felt like I was in a porno with the superstar porn stud fucking me. His body was so beautiful and he was so strong. Seeing his muscles move as he thrust kept the blood rushing to my cock. It remained hard. He would grunt and groan while I kept up an almost nonstop monologue of moans and yes and please, mostly it was just the incredible sensations my body was feeling coming out as sound.
He pulled out and turned me on my side, lifting one leg into the air, into a position I didn't know was possible for me. He entered me again. The pain I felt the first time was absent. I wanted him in me. He fucked. I moaned. My cock was leaking the entire time. Each time he pulled out he would rearrange my body and go back for more. Each time I felt empty and wanted to be filled. He added lube twice during these moves and I learned of positions that allowed me to feel a cock in ways I had never experienced.
"Sam. Are you ready?"
"Ready?" I was confused. Ready for what, he had been drilling me for quite some time.
"Stallion wants to rut."
"Oh god." And I nodded.
He flipped my onto my stomach and spread my legs open. I am sure my hole was already stretched to the point it wasn't closing up when he pulled out because he suddenly thrust his cock in with a force that pushed my entire body to the head of my bed. Somehow he arched his back and pulled me with him so my head wasn't hitting the wall and then his body came to rest on mine and he began to buck.
Being fucked was nothing new for me. I had been fucked several hundred times by this point and by over a hundred men, those escort days were busy. But nothing had prepared me for this. Even Ed wasn't like this. His assault was intended to put me in my place. Charles' assault on my hole was to give me what he promised.
His strength alone guaranteed a solid fuck. His body and cock backed by his muscularity were unknown territory for me. I felt like crying out but resisted. Finally I couldn't hold back and I cried out. I surprised my self. It wasn't pain. It was ecstasy. "SEX! YES! Don't stop!"
And he didn't. The entire bed was shaking, it was moving. The noise of his body slamming into mine as the bed squeaked like I had never heard it squeak was almost alarming. Yet I didn't care. I was being truly fucked by a man who was a champion at it. The heat that was building in and around my hole from his fucking felt like I would melt. "Please, fuck me harder!"
Charles was there to please. I started having trouble catching my breath. He raised his body off of mine and began to plow into me with a force that would knock a man out cold if it made contact with his face. I stopped thinking and just accepted it all.
"Want me to fill you?" I heard him ask and immediately I went into an internal debate. I did but I wanted to see him cum, I wanted to see his load.
"On me." I managed to utter between grunts.
Once again he used his talent and strength to flip me on my back, his cock never leaving my hole and never stopping it's thrust. He held my legs high and wide.
"Ready Sam?"
I opened my eyes and tried to smile.
He slowed his pace and after a minute he pulled his cock out. Reaching down he grabbed my hips and pulled me until my ass was nearly off the bed. Grabbing my legs again he stood between them, his cock purple and huge sticking up and out like a trophy. He smiled and grunted and it flew. The first three spurts looked more like a guy pissing than a guy cumming. They hit my chest. He spurt again and again this time hitting my stomach. He spurt again and it hit my cock. He never touched his cock, his hands kept my legs in place. Finally he had a few dribbles.
Setting my legs down he came around to the side of the bed and pulled me away from the edge. I was panting as I tried to catch my breath.
"Sam. You did well. Jude can be proud."
Lifting my head to see his load I was embarrassed by how much he had cum. My loads weren't wimpy but his matched his body and strength. I reached down and took some. I wanted to taste it. He smiled. Eat all that up Sam. You earned it.
As I slowly wiped the cum up and licked it off my fingers I was able to return to normal breathing. Charles left my room while I was enjoying his seed. At some point I know I came, likely more than once. It was difficult to tell because the bedding was a mess and damp from sweat and lube. My body was sticky and hot, I felt amazing.
The door opened, I looked toward it. "JUDE!"
"Hey Sam." He smiled a huge smile.
I sat up. "Jude! I am sorry, I didn't know you were home and shit, I fucked in your house." I was embarrassed. I felt busted.
"Sam." He chuckled and walked into the room. "Don't worry. Remember I asked you to do me a favor."
I signed. Thank god he wasn't upset.
"Obviously you enjoyed it."
"Oh Jude, it was...I can't describe it."
"Oh yes you can, well you did. Shit the noise you two were making was a clear sign it was hot as hell."
"You heard us?"
"Half the building heard you two."
"Shit. Wait. How long...when did you get home?"
"About an hour ago."
Now I was sitting straight up. "An hour ago! What time is it?"
"Almost two thirty."
"He is incredible isn't he?" He smiled a knowing smile. "Sam. Charles is probably the best fuck I have ever had. You know we were buddies right? Well, we both learned a lot from each other. I know what he can do with that cock of his. And I can only imagine how he has improved since we last did it. Be proud Sam."
"Where is he?"
"He went home."
"What? He left?" Should I be annoyed?
"It's late Sam. You gave him what you wanted and what he wanted. He was never one to spend the night. You want a shower?"
"No, but I want to piss." Standing up I nearly fell over. My entire body was spent. Jude laughed at me and left my room. When I returned, after a little clean up, he had a large glass of water waiting for me.
"Sleep well Sam."
Crawling into bed, still sticky and overall a mess I feel asleep in moments.

So upset with rampant clearing of mangrove forest in Penang, the Consumers' Association of Penang (CAP) has asked the DAP-controlled state government on whether it cared about the people's welfare or it was more inclined to protect developers agenda.
CAP president S.M. Mohamed Idris said it was distressful to see the rampant felling of mangrove forests in Penang despite strong opposition from locals, especially the fisher communities.
"What is the main objective of the state government? Is it to champion the plight of the fisher communities or to forsake them in the name of development?" asked Idris in a strongly worded statement today.
He said many people, especially the fisher communities, had been protesting against destruction of mangroves because their livelihood had been threatened following the implementation of development projects.
Recently an area of 9.38 hectares of mangroves in Bagan Jermal has been reportedly destroyed to make way for a reclamation project in the area.
Tanjung Tokong shores were also similarly affected.
"These incidents clearly showed that the Penang government was not serious in protecting the environment and the lives of the people, particularly the fisher community," blasted Idris.
CAP said that the mangroves in the area should have been gazetted as permanent reserved forest (PRF) to protect the natural treasure that was being threatened with extinction in some coastal areas in Penang.
CAP's surveys revealed that hundreds of hectares of mangroves in Penang have been destroyed over the years in name of development and aquaculture projects.
The studies found that the environmental disaster was threatening the source of income of thousands of fishermen in the state because the breeding and nursing grounds of marine life and natural coastal areas had been destroyed for development, besides being threatened by pollution.
CAP hopes that project developers would take immediate action to replant the mangrove trees that had been felled to enable rejuvenation of the area and revive fisheries stock for the sake of the fishermen, future generation and the environment.
The reclamation project for the development of Seri Tanjung Pinang 2 (STP2) in Tanjung Tokong has and will bring more problems for the local fishers as their fishing area would diminish soon.
The Tanjung Tokong Fishermen's Association has reportedly called on the DAP-led state government to clarify the felling of the mangroves in the area, which would have an impact on them in near future.
"Their problem is aggravated with the destruction of mangroves here and the livelihood of the fishermen will be adversely affected," warned Idris.

Practice these new vocabulary words here: Athlete Salaries
Athlete Salaries
In 2009, Tiger Woods became the first billion dollar man in sports. These days, professional athletes earn money without even picking up a golf club or hockey stick. Much of their earnings are from sponsorship deals or appearance fees. Tiger Woods' personal life fell apart one year after he broke the billion dollar record. Like many celebrities, he learned the hard way that money can't buy you love. Do your favorite athletes love the fame more than the game? Some fans cannot afford to pay for tickets to their favorite sporting events. If athlete salaries were cut in half, could we all afford to buy tickets? The highest paid American baseball players bring home over 20 million dollars per year. How much does the average doctor make? Most professional athletes give back to their communities in some shape or form. In 2010, Vancouver Canuck hockey stars Daniel and Henrik Sedin donated 1.5 million dollars to a Canadian children's hospital. This donation equaled about 10% of the twins annual earnings. Why didn't this act of charity make the world headline news?
