Guest Post by Debra van Opstal and Katie Jereza
A modern power grid—one with the capacity to sense, monitor and respond—will be critical to America's future competitiveness, driving growth and sustainability. But, a modern grid will also create new risks and vulnerabilities. Some of these risks will come through the Internet or communications networks. There is also growing concern that corrupted, counterfeited or compromised components or software will be introduced through the supply chain, degrading the performance of the power system or causing large-scale disruptions on command.
The U.S. Resilience Project, with support from the U.S. Department of Energy and George Mason University – and in partnership with EnergySec, Edison Electric Institute, GridWise Alliance, Internet Security Alliance and Supply Chain Risk Leadership Council – examined this problem in a workshop on Securing the Smart Grid: Best Practices in Supply Chain Security, Integrity and Resilience. The goal was to explore the extent to which existing best practices in supply chain risk management could help narrow the scope of cyber risks to the smart grid—and identify where there are gaps and opportunities for public-private collaboration.
We had a couple of "aha" insights.
- First, global interconnectivity and interdependence are raising the bar for supply chain risks.
What happens anywhere now has the potential to create ripples everywhere. Floods in Thailand created a worldwide shortage of hard disk drives. The emergence of global supplier networks has increased the risk of poor quality or counterfeit parts or malicious insertion of Trojan Horses. These risks not only endanger critical infrastructure, but also impact corporate revenues, profits and shareholder value. For companies, supply chain has been transformed from a back office issue to a potential bet-the-company risk.
- Second, in order to manage these new risks, America's corporate leaders have been investing in more stringent supply chain processes and tools that create confidence in sourced materials, manufacturing quality, shipment security and end-of-life disposal.
As part of the workshop preparation, we collected examples of best practices in supply chain security and continuity, including vendor assessment processes, supply chain mapping, the attachment of global positioning systems and sensors to shipments to detect unauthorized entry, and software coding processes that reduce the risks of unauthorized and unwanted coded insertions, to name a few.
- Third, these cutting-edge tools have tremendous relevance to narrowing cyber risks to the smart grid from a spectrum of scenarios.
The problem is that cyber executives are not familiar with best practices in supply chain security and resilience—and supply chain executives are not responsible for cybersecurity. And, this is true for both the public and private sectors.
The Bottom Line:
Supply chain and cybersecurity are inextricably linked. The existing processes and tools in supply chain security and resilience within businesses can help inform the challenge of securing the smart grid supply chain from cyber threats. As government seeks to address these threats, it should look to industry best practices that can simultaneously achieve both competitiveness and security. And government resources can be focused on safeguarding the appropriate areas that commercial best practices do not—and often cannot—address.
A report synthesizing the key findings from this initiative will be released in summer 2012. For the most relevant and up-to-date information on practices and tools available today for managing supply chain risk visit www.usresilienceproject.org.

Posted 11th March 2016 By: LEX
Today's update is an exciting one, preemptive odds based predictions. Previously we've had issue/complaints about predictions being posted too late, or for 'not playing the odds'. The truth is, our predictors are playing the odds, but the predictors written explanation didn't quite match up to our very simplified recommendation which was on show to the right of the text.
In the example above the call for a "large on EWolves" creates a very simple picture of how to bet. But realistically, if the odds go above 80%, it's not worth risking your skins for a few cents (unless you're a high roller), you'd be better off either skipping or placing an ICB instead.
The new layout (shown above on the right) allows our predictors to lay out a plan early on. In this example, the first choice bet for the predictor would be to place a very small bet on Galatics. It's still high risk and only pays off if the odds stay below 35%.
If the lounge odds change and go above 35%, the recommendation will move to option 2, option 1 will be minimised and option 2 will show as the recommended bet. This time option 2 is a bigger bet but still only 5% on NR, again though, this is only worthwhile if the odds stay below 60%.
If all else fails, and the odds keep increasing for NR above 60%, then there's enough doubt in the predictors mind that it's not worth the risk, and a skip is called. Save your skins for another match.
This means our predictions can go up ahead of the odds, with a plan laid out for you to follow and understand.

Raleigh beer and wine lovers, who've seen their boozing options expand exponentially over the past few years, will soon have even more variety, thanks to the Crabtree Beer Garden at Crabtree Valley Mall, Pourworks, which will open in a space at the Manor Six Forks Apartments, and a bottle shop for the beloved Trolley Pub.
As first reported in the Triangle Business Journal, the former Tomato Pie restaurant was closed at the end of September, and the 4,200 square foot space will be transformed into a pub and bottle shop named the Crabtree Beer Garden.
The concept will be very similar to the Brier Creek Beer Garden, also owned by Payman Bazooband, which opened in April. The bottle shop at Crabtree will reportedly offer more than 300 varieties of beer, and the majority of its taps will feature North Carolina Beers, according to the Raleigh Agenda.
$10,000 worth of permits for work at the Crabtree Beer Garden were issued October 6 to Gleeson Controls.
Pourworks, which bills itself as "Raleigh's premiere craft beer & wine shop" signed a retail lease with Manor Six Forks, located at 900 East Six Forks Road in North Raleigh, in early September. On October 5, Integrated Commercial LLC received $98,000 worth of permits to begin fitting out the space for Pourworks.
I actually live pretty close by to "The Manor" — I've been a frequent visitor to the adjacent Bojangles — but had no idea there was going to be any sort of retail component to the place. Especially a retail component that only sells booze. I remember settling on my first post-college apartment in large part because it was within stumbling distance of several bars; if I'd found a place that had a beer shop built into it…forget it.
Of course, Pourworks aims to be more than just a place you pick up a sixer before heading back to your studio apartment to drown out the miseries of your day. The owners want to foster a congenial, welcoming environment where everyone can stop in, have a drink and get to know their neighbors a little better. The earliest post on their Facebook account talked about how they want to "ensure that we identify and align with what the residents and customers want."
We liked one of their next posts even better, and not just because we agree that Cheers is one of the all-time sitcom classics:
Rounding out the trio of taverns receiving permits last week was none other than the Trolley Pub Bottle Shop, something we reported on way back in April. Of course, the excellent Amanda Hoyle over at TBJ had published something nearly a week before our post. Oh well.
On October 5, an $1,800 permit was issued to a contractor named, appropriately enough, Redwine Renovation, for work at Trolley Pub's current headquarters at 323 W. Davie Street.
Titled "Trolley Pub Bottle Shop" the permits describe the work as involving some minor demolition and the addition of walls and shelving "for a bottle shop within existing trolley pub — adding mercantile area to existing storage building as a non-separated mixed-use occupancy."
In his interview with Amanda Hoyle, Trolley Pub proprietor Kai Kaapro also discussed plans to add a restaurant and an event space for their guests — I call them Troll Riders — to enjoy before or after cruising around town in the Trolley Pub.
It would appear from these permits that the only thing being added at this point is a space from which to sell beer. This makes sense: Troll Riders are currently required to pre-purchase their booze, as the mobile, pedal-powered "pub" doesn't actually sell beer. I imagine the BYOB aspect of it has something to do with ABC permitting, but who knows. The point is, Kaapro can now cut out the middleman and make the whole Trolley Pub experience that much more convenient: no need to stop at the Harris Teeter beforehand.
While I'm no fan of the Trolley Pub myself — it's tacky and touristy and it ties up traffic; I was stuck behind one last week on Boylan Avenue, of all places — it's hard to be too spiteful of a successful business owner whose concept has done so well he can now expand it into other avenues. Heck, I'll even toss in a nickel's worth of free advice: if the bottle shop is going to have a seating area, Kaapro should install a bunch of those "DeskCycle" machines as a way of simulating all the fun the Trolley Pub has to offer.
Also receiving permits last week:
- The Angus Barn out on Glenwood Avenue will have a $400,000 heavy-timber canopy (this must be some canopy!) installed at their front entrance by Quality Builders.
- Red Wing Shoes will apparently be opening a second location at 3408 Olympia Drive in a space previously occupied by Enterprise Rent-a-Car. The store, which claims to provide Raleigh with " the highest-quality work footwear, accessories and care products," currently operates out of a space at 3200 South Wilmington Street. Renovation work at the new location is being handled by Caliber 1 Construction for $117,155.
- Renovations have begun in suite 1200 at 421 Fayetteville, also known as One City Plaza (nee One Bank of America Plaza), for the new offices of the City of Raleigh's Housing & Neighborhoods Department. As reported by the Triangle Business Journal back two months earlier, City Council on August 2 authorized the City Manager to move forward with the 7 year lease. The initial rate will be $26.95 per square foot, which will increase 2.75 percent each year beginning in 2018. According to the City Clerk's report of that meeting, the space will allow increase departmental efficiencies via co-location. "Following a search of available properties, a suitable lease site was identified at 421 Fayetteville Street. The lease premises would be located on the twelfth floor and contain 15,684 rentable SF. Consolidation of department staff in the leased space as proposed will free up work space in other city facilities for reallocation and to achieve additional staff efficiencies in other departments." If you don't feel like doing the math, that works out to $422,683 for the first year, $434,306 for the second, and so on. Owned by Highwoods Realty, the historic tower was recently renovated and acquired by Highwoods and is home to a number of well-known Raleigh businesses. The renovation for the new Housing and Neighborhoods office will be handled in-house by Highwoods at a listed cost of $417,391.
- Diamond Contracting will be slumming it out at Weaver Brothers Volvo (IMO, Diamond should work exclusively for Lamborghini and Ferrari dealerships), where they will be undertaking a $153,500 renovation of Weaver's existing service area.

There was this scary guard dog where family and I had vacationed once during my childhood. It was huge and with its thick chain stretched tight as its huge paws dug into the ground, there was barely a foot and a half for me to squeeze when coming and going, between the house wall and the dog's wild bulging eyes and a huge toothy open mouth, barking deafeningly. Well one day the chain did break - I thought that would be the end of me - instead, the dog was so confused it no longer felt restrained, that it stopped barking and went into its doghouse.
Some men are like that dog - when you say yes, they aren't sure what to do next, because they haven't thought it through that far, LOL.
Oh, and here's a corollary for you: I that dog and I became friends a couple of days later. :)64|20|0

A Better Way With Weeds
I have a love/hate relationship with weeds. Perhaps love is too strong a term, but I do greatly admire the persistence of weeds and the role they play in preserving disturbed soils. Indeed, a number of years ago, I wrote an article for The New York Times Sunday Magazine about the beneficial role that weeds will play in our era of rapidly changing climate.
The hate is easy enough to explain: weeding is, at least for me, the most annoying and least rewarding of garden chores. Friends speak of the sense of accomplishment they feel when they survey a neat, freshly weeded garden bed. I feel mainly a sense of hopelessness in those circumstances, for I know that merely disturbing the soil in this fashion will prompt the germination of some of the tens of thousands of weed seeds that lie dormant there and that soon the bed will be as disheveled as ever.
This is why I was so intrigued by landscape designer Larry Weaner's approach to weed control. He taught me his techniques when we were working together on our recent book, Garden Revolution.
As an ecologically oriented designer, Larry is keenly aware that disturbing the soil in any fashion invites the appearance of weeds – thus, pulling a weed out by its roots, because it disturbs the soil, merely incites the growth of more weeds in the same spot.
That's why Larry advocates dense planting with desirable species and then snipping most weeds that do appear at the base rather than pulling them. This is quicker than pulling; in an informal test, Larry found that he could snip four weeds on average during the time it took to pull one. Snipping is also more effective. It sets the weed back, allowing more desirable neighbors to close in over it, without creating any weed-inciting disturbance. A persistent weed may return once or twice from snipping, but eventually it falls prey to exhaustion and the unequal competition with its neighbors.
This technique does not work with all weeds. It is clearly unsuited for mat-forming weeds, and it will not work with really aggressive, rhizomatous weeds such as mugwort, which are proof against anything other than prolonged smothering or herbicides.. For the great majority of weedy invaders, however, snipping provides a more efficient and effective means of control.
This technique can be adapted to larger expanses by mowing or string trimming at a height just above a desirable ground cover to disadvantage taller weeds.
So remember, when it comes to weeds: snip, don't rip.

nCircle, the leader in automated security and compliance auditing solutions, today announced the results of a security survey of 145 professionals responsible for IT security in small to mid-sized businesses. The study was conducted between November 14, 2011 and November 26, 2011 to better understand the security and compliance issues that have the greatest impact on smaller businesses.
When asked "Are you sure the web applications your company uses are secure?", 39% of respondents said they rely on their firewall and third party applications for web security and 11% said outsourcing their web applications provided "good enough" security.
"Web application vulnerabilities such as cross-site scripting (XSS) and SQL Injection attacks make up an increasing percentage of newly discovered vulnerabilities and reported cyber-attacks. Web applications also change faster than many other business applications," said Elizabeth Ireland, vice president of marketing at nCircle. "These two factors combine to make web applications a primary target for cyber criminals. Every organization should apply extra security diligence to their web applications, even if the applications are sourced through a third party."

This is a little scary. Before I started at Dell I worked for a small home security company. We dealt with credit information, bank account numbers, and all sorts of other information that we had to be extremely careful with. Even being a small company, "good enough" wasn't good enough.
It's worth spending some time and money to make sure your web applications are secure.

KYIV – In 2014, Vladimir Putin discovered his inner Trotsky. For what Russia's president is now offering Ukraine is a perverse twist on the formula Trotsky proclaimed during the peace negotiations at Brest-Litovsk in 1918: "No war, no peace." In doing so, Putin has not only moved to trap my country in a frozen conflict that will prevent both democracy and the economy from flourishing; he has shredded the rules and norms that have kept the peace in Europe for three generations.
No one should believe that the Minsk Protocol – agreed in September by representatives of Ukraine, Russia, and the Kremlin-backed armed militants in the eastern cities of Donetsk and Luhansk – marked the beginning of a return to normalcy in either Ukraine or Europe. Under that agreement, Ukraine's government ceded de facto control of the Donbas region, supposedly for only three years, to Russia's hired secessionists. But this imported hybrid war – and Russia's bid to carve up Ukraine – is far from over.
On the contrary, the Minsk Protocol marked only the end of the beginning of Putin's program to turn Ukraine into a vassal state, and to restore a Russian veto over its neighbors' international relations. His efforts to thwart Ukraine's European future will continue, as will his efforts to hollow out our democracy and replace it with a Kremlin echo chamber, unless the world imposes such a high price for his imperial ambitions that the Russian people refuse to bear it.
So, in 2015, the resolve that Europe and the United States have shown in opposing Putin's designs must not only be maintained; it must be hardened. Yet, sadly, there have been signs of slackening Western commitment. The European Commission's agreement in September to postpone full implementation of Ukraine's association agreement with the European Union – the agreement that Ukrainians fought and died for in Kyiv last winter – signaled to Putin that cunning, force, and intimidation can win Western acquiescence in his subjugation of Ukraine and theft of Crimea.

Many of you probably won't know me well, because I'm still new here somehow. I gave a brief introduction of myself in a past blog post, and it's now time to do my first review! But before we start, I'd like to tell you, when you sign your fanon under my name in the review squad page, don't take offence if the review was bad, or average - the review is just my opinion and a friendly advice.
After reading The Adventures of Omar|Adventures of Omar]] story by Omar067 on last Saturday, Sunday and Monday, I was impressed.
When I first looked at the plot, my first thought was What a bad story, picturing yourself with the Avatar! bad idea... but when I continued reading, that was not exactly my thought... at all! As the duo started going out of the Southern Water Tribe, action became to rise slowly. Yet, Adventures of Omar is a small but enjoyable read, history of the assassin, the description of each person's feeling in each scene, and there is much suspense between a chapter and another so you can't stop reading! Anyway, I'm not giving spoilers like BlackMonkey does and writes the plot... I advice you, go read the story yourself and trust me, you will enjoy it.
Let's get to the scoring :
- Suspense : 9.7 - Something that was really good about the story, chapters were fairly short and were seperated on an action-packed moment.
- Action : 8.0 - In the few first chapters, you would give a poor rating of action, but when Korra leaves the Southern Water Tribe, almost every chapter is action-packed.
- Description : 9.8 - Something I am not really good at, while Omar067 describes everything in his story. By everything I mean everything !
- Creativity : 8.7 - Very creative. New names, new towns, new bits of history, and teleporting between worlds.
- Believability : 7.3 - Well, the new towns were creative, but none was introduced neither in A:TLA or in A:LOK related releases. Teleporting between worlds haven't been explained (how and why) as well.
- Final Touch (Spelling/Grammar/Goofs) : 7.5 - I stated before that this should be the easiest 10 points to gain, but here, it apparently isn't. Lee Shu was sometimes declared as a village, and some other times, a large town. Many spelling mistakes were noticable throughout the series. Well, such things always happen, but they would still affect the score.
Final Score : 51/60. And for those who like averages, 8.5/10 is the average score.
Why should you read Adventures of Omar ? - If you want a short, enjoyable, and a different read, you should try this. If you really want something, almost unrelated to the war, and different, you will enjoy this fanon.
Any advice for Omar067 ? - Keep on, you got a skilled editor working with you, just keep being creative and explain the strange force that teleported you to Avatar World :). Final Touch could use a bit of work.
P.S. - This review may seem similar to Millennia2's review, but trust me, it wasn't copied :)

Kakita Harunobu was an artisan of the Crane Clan.
Artisan Edit
Harunobu lived during the time of Hantei XXX working in a peasant village keeping the farmer's tools in order. During a journey to Otosan Uchi Harunobu came upon a peasant village where he saw a ronin smith, by the name Tsi, and he was impressed by the immense skill with which the man worked the metal. [1]
Taking an Apprentice Edit
Several years later Haranobu learned that Tsi had worked forging katana for the Lion Clan, and returned to the village. He made Tsi his apprentice, and set him up in the Kakita palaces. With Harunobu 's guidance, his work soon equaled those of any Crane smith, and soon was in demand by the entire family, and then by all of Rokugan. [2]
Tsi Family Edit
When in the year 879 [3] the Emperor commissioned a sword for his son the Crane allowed Tsi to create the saya for the blade. The Emperor was so taken with the beauty of their work that the Crane was made the personal smith of the Emperor [4] and Tsi would only serve the Emperor, effectively becoming an Imperial vassal family.

Happy Feet for Salvatore Ferragamo
It's a time to rejoice as Salvatore Ferragamo has finally announced Paul Andrew as their design director of women's footwear, following the departure of former Creative Director Massimiliano Giorneti in March after 16 years with the luxury fashion house.
"We are excited to welcome such a dynamic and established talent into the Ferragamo company. We have a proud history of nurturing design talent and we believe that Paul's credo very much matches the spirit at the heart of our house," said president Ferruccio Ferragamo in a release – but with a fashion pedigree such as Andrew's, it is without surprise that this announcement has been met with widespread approval.
Andrew founded his eponymous footwear brand in 2013 – specialising in chic and elegant footwear for men and women – after years of working closely with iconic fashion houses such as Donna Karan and Alexander McQueen.
A year after wowing the fashion world with his collection, Andrew went on to become the first footwear designer to receive the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) and Vogue Fashion Fund award, but of course he didn't stop there. In June 2016, he also won the CFDA Swarovski Award for Accessory Design.
Honoured and excited for Salvatore Ferragamo's future, Andrew said in an official statement, "I look forward to bringing a new perspective to the company in line with the demands of today's marketplace, marrying the power of its heritage and industrial force with high design and the latest innovations in material and make."
There will be no stopping the Italian fashion house with Andrew at its helm. His first collection will debut for the Pre-Fall 2017 season but fear not, while we wait with bated breath, see Salvatore Ferragamo's stunning Fall/Winter 2016 collection now in their campaign video below.

Playground safety and health: The importance of vaccinations
Kids need ample room for outdoor activity and exercise. A playground can offer a safe place for youngsters to run, jump, skip, hop, and climb. While this equipment is beneficial for developing and maintaining gross motor skills, there are safety and health factors to consider when your children spend time on playgrounds. As children spend time with other youngsters, they may receive exposure to germs and bacteria. Vaccinations help protect children from some serious illnesses.
Vaccination Overview
Some medications treat illnesses after you contract them, helping your body fight off the invading bacteria that are causing symptoms. Although vaccinations are a type of medication, this variety of medicine is designed to prevent illness from beginning in the first place. The body has an immune system designed to maintain health and fight disease. An army of white blood cells typically attacks invading bacteria with a forceful vengeance to keep the body strong and healthy. After subduing bacteria, the body even has the capacity to remember the invading bacteria, which prevents another bout of the same illness from occurring again in the future.
With vaccines, a weakened form of a virus is injected into a patient. With the introduction of these bacteria, the white blood cells respond in similar fashion to the way they respond to natural illnesses. The fact that the bacteria are in a weakened state does not detract from the effectiveness of the white blood cells, as they work to stave off the illness. The end result is that the body receives the same type of immunity that it would have after a natural illness, but the patient did not have to endure a dangerous virus.

Vaccines and Immunization
A number of benefits are associated with vaccinations. The main benefit of vaccines is the immunity they give against serious and potentially debilitating illnesses. While this immunity translates to protection for individual people, it also includes a "herd immunity." Herd immunity involves widespread immunity that occurs within a community when vaccination numbers are high. The more people who receive vaccinations, the fewer people will become sick with specific illnesses. Herd immunity can be beneficial for keeping people healthy who cannot receive vaccinations, such as young infants or people experiencing other chronic illnesses. When a community has a high vaccination rate, you may feel safer about having your child play on a neighborhood playground, because the prevalence of serious illnesses will be lower.
Some playground risks involve illnesses that can be prevented by vaccinations. Hepatitis B is a liver infection that leads to liver damage. Any exposure to blood from a person with Hepatitis B could spread the disease. Even a simple scrape or cut occurring while playing could involve the unintentional spread of this illness between children if one child isn't vaccinated. Another potential risk involves tetanus. Tetanus spores could be present in dirt or dust. If a puncture, scrape, or cut occurs, it's possible that tetanus spores could enter the body. Once there, these toxins could cause a painful illness that involves muscle contractions and spasms. Both Hepatitis B and Tetanus are preventable with immunizations.
Some health risks are involved with immunizations; however, the benefits typically outweigh the risks. Some people experience localized soreness at the injection site, but this discomfort dissipates quickly. A mild fever may also occur, but it does not last more than about 24 hours. Rarely, a person could experience a severe reaction from a vaccination, but these incidences happen infrequently.

Current Vaccination Issues
In early 2015, over 100 cases of measles were confirmed in 17 different states. This outbreak was traced to an amusement park in California. Officials surmise that an international traveler visited the park while sick with the disease, exposing other visitors to the bacteria. Most of the people who contracted measles during this outbreak were unvaccinated. With the virility of the measles bacteria, approximately 90 percent of the people exposed to it without having immunity will catch it. After receiving two doses of the vaccine, it provides about 97 percent protection from the bacteria.
When people opt to avoid immunizations, this disrupts the herd immunity that can provide safety for large groups of people. Each disease has a different contagiousness. With an illness, such as measles, that is highly contagious, achieving herd immunity requires an immunization level of at least 90 to 95 percent, or an entire community could be at risk. When a community has a strong immunity level, an outbreak of a disease isn't likely to affect the people in the community as much, because the illness can't take hold among the people.

JotForm Support
Sorry but I'm not exactly sure how you're able to post data to your FB profile from the form? Is this what you mean exactly here? We do not have such integration as of yet so I supposed you are using custom code perhaps? However, I know it is possible to post Jotform to FB group as post with Zapier.
Kindly provide more details so we can assist you further. Thanks!
I was trying to send email as per this old thread.
If I send a regular email to the one provided to me by FB, the heading i place in the subject matter does appear as a FB post. But when I try to apply to my form it does not seem to work.Please advise.
JotForm Support
Hi Lance,
It probably is not working anymore.. I also tried it on my end, and I can't seems to make it work also.
My test form http://form.jotform.me/form/40788173642461?
Perhaps recent updates on the side of FB is preventing this from working anymore.
In my test form, I clearly indicated the FB e-mail account of my FB test page.
But so far, after testing the form, the message did not reflect on the FB page status.
I will investigate further to see if there are possibility of it still working.
I will update here when I can.
Thanks Jonathan,
Must be something holding it up because if i send an email to my FB email account from my regular yahoo email the subject line does create an update on my FB page. Thought knowing this might help you as I would really love to be able to do this again.

Blacks On Blondes Katt Dylan
We pulled out the big guns for this weeks update. In one corner we have Jenna Presley. In the other corner is Lexington Steele and his debut here on the DogFart Network. Jenna and Lex are having some playful banter which inevitably turns into something much more interesting. Lexington Steele feels up Jenna's massive tits right before she kneels down before him and worships that legendary big black cock. Jenna Presley's giant milk jugs rubs against Lex's legs while her mouth inflates courtesy of that monster of a black cock. Jenna's mouth gets a much needed break when she lowers herself onto Mr. Steele's oversized black dick. Jenna's huge tits nearly cause her whiplash as she rides onto Lex's black cock until her white pussy begins the progression to a state of useless for any white guys. Lexington Steele's debut for us wouldn't be complete unless he slammed his black pipe into Jenna's uterus until she squirts all over his cock and an "Out of order" sign is almost needed to hang above it. Jenna Presley got all the interracial sex she could handle and her face and tits got slimed by Lex's black yogurt slinger.

I have 4 tattoos two on my right arm one on my left and one on my right thigh.. I don't think that's overdone.. Opinions on attractive piercings too?
It all depends on the individual girl and what she has and where.
Have an opinion?
Hope you plan on struggling on being successful in life. My company would never hire you.
Good thing I'm never working for your company. :-) you'd never know I had them in a workplace unless you asked.. Just saying.
A job is different than a career and all ink means "poor judgment' at the very least. To the Jewish faith it is a slap in the face of their faith. Over half the world would find you offensive and you will have travel issues to different countries. If you do not have a police file which keeps track of all ink, for the simple fact, ink profiles a person as having poor judgment. If you do not have a police record saying ink and you arrive at some countries you will be detained and sent back home. Detained means held in jail till you find a flight home. Good luck. This is your life and you choose to put something on your body that half the world has a problem with, I guess this means you will be poor for life.
Thanks for your opinion. :-)
Tattoos and piercing aren't attractive.
i don't like those tattoos that covers all the body its disgusting but its ok to have a small one this actually makes you more sexy like this picture...
https://s-media-cache ak0. pinimg. com/736x/7f/11/83/7f1183afcd1fa370fd0145b0b86b99cb. jpg
about the piercing thing its only hot for me when its in these parts (belly or tong and lips) and don't take it to far alright... ;)
It can really vary, depending on what the tattoos look like and where all the piercings are, but generally I really like girls with tattoos, and a couple of piercings can be really sexy. Not a huge fan of a of piercings, but if someone really pulled it off, I wouldn't mind.
Other than a modest ear piercing or small tattoo with personal meaning, I don't care for them. Removing them has become a big business. Your taste changes. Tattoos are permanent.
I prefer no tattoos. Covers up a woman's natural beauty. Just my opinion. A lot of people do like them.
sleeves are hot, but no random skulls please :)
No random skulls here Lol..
lol then its all good, unless you have those tattoos that you get from truth or dare. My friend got a Naruto tattoo on her arm, The size of her palm, I can never look at her seriously again when she wears sleeveless.
www.google.ca/search this is really sexy to me
I hate tattoos. I think they look cheap. Piercings? Ears and there only one.
They are not generally attractive but some people can carry them off really well.
Which one is considered as unatractive pearsing?
To each his/her own. I don't find either attractive. Especially not the tattoos. Natural is best for me though pierced ears offer opportunity for attractive ornamenting.
I'm not a fan, but there are plenty of guys who love those

The Calm Birth Team
Robert Bruce Newman, Founder
Calm Birth was developed from Robert's years of work with doctors, childbirth educators, midwives, nurses, and doulas. It's based on methods he learned and was authorized to teach during his more than 20 years of apprenticeship with Tibetan meditation teachers and doctors. He has presented more than 100 hospital and conference training seminars in the Calm Birth method since 1997.
Robert has presented the method at four congresses of the Association for Pre and Perinatal Psychology and Health, at the University of Michigan Medical School, and at Bastyr University. He has taught at the University of Colorado, Naropa University, and the City University of New York. His books include: Calm Birth: New Method for Conscious Childbirth (North Atlantic Books, 10/05); Empowered Care: Mind-Body Medicine Methods (Portal Center Press, 12/2012). Published feature articles include: The Emergence of Mind/Body Medicine (Sentient Times, 8/99).
Anna Humphreys, Co-Director
Anna, CD(DONA), CEIM, has been involved with the Calm Birth program since 2012. Her work as a doula within and outside of the hospital system has been empowered by the Calm Birth method, and she has seen a range of success stories with her own eyes.
"The application of meditation to childbirth can be key to a positive birth experience, however it unfolds," Anna says, "and this practice can only lead to a life of greater physical and spiritual health for everyone in the family. As Co-Director to Calm Birth, a meditator, and a doula, I am deeply honored to be contributing to the growth of this program."
Anna is also administratively involved with the Association for Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology and Health (APPPAH), and is a Certified Educator of Infant Massage.
Betsy Smith, Co-Director
Betsy Smith has over 17 years' experience as a Certified Nurse Midwife and 42 years as a nurse. She has also managed and supervised emergency and labor and delivery units in hospitals, as well as a free-standing birth center in South Carolina. As her practice has evolved over the decades, she has turned to a more holistic approach to childbirth, which includes meditation, massage, and acupressure.
Her separate interests in childbirth and meditation combined when, in 2005, she discovered Calm Birth. Her connection with the program was instantaneous, and she attended many teacher trainings and has served on the Board of Directors for a number of years. In 2014, she accepted the position of Co-Director.
Betsy brings compassion, wisdom, and reverence for the miracles of birth and life into every experience. She lives in Vancouver, Washington, where, in addition to facilitating Calm Birth teacher training and activities, she runs an in-hospital midwifery partnership.
Christine Novak, Co-Director
Christine has worked in the field of childbirth as a childbirth educator, doula, and holistic Labor and Delivery nurse at the Frank and Mimi Walsh Maternity Center at the Atlantic Health / Overlook Hospital in Summit, New Jersey for over 20 years. Her work integrating Calm Birth into hospitals in New Jersey is highly regarded, and she was rewarded with the 2008 Nursing Excellence Award from Overlook Hospital and the 2009 Best for Baby Award from the March of Dimes.
Says Christine:"I remain true to my vision that it is possible for us to approach birth with deep respect and reverence, as an opportunity for a healing, transformative process. I encourage everyone in the childbirth field to learn about Calm Birth, and am dedicated to bringing the program into maternal-child health centers and hospitals globally. Calm Birth is a gift for complete prenatal care, and I am honored to carry this work forward." Christine serves as Co-Director from New Jersey, and co-facilitates group teacher trainings.

Jack 'Legs' Diamond: Anatomy of a Gangster
Prohibition was tailor-made for Jack "Legs" Diamond. Already an army deserter, a hijacker, and a car thief, diamond moved readily into the new opportunities offered by the public's thirst for illicit alcohol. Along with easy profit, he found notoriety and power. He was fawned on by society women and pursued by the press. A survivor of four shootings, he appeared to lead charmed life. That life is revealed in a vivid biography, Legs Diamond: Anatomy of a Gangster. At the height of Prohibition, Legs Diamond moved to Acra in Greene County with his bodyguard, his gang, his wife, and his mistress. There, he alternately charmed and terrorized his neighbors as he sought control of bootlegging in the Hudson Valley. The public avidly followed his wild parties, his battles with rival gangs, his love affair with the gorgeous showgirl "Kiki" Roberts, and his contempt for the police and the courts. What was not apparent at the time was the broad range of diamond's criminal activities, including the sale of narcotics and a beer distribution network that covered the Northeast

Pilgrim Lyrics
Artist: Steve Earle
Album: The Mountain
I am just a pilgrim on this road, boys
This ain't never been my home
Sometimes the road was rocky €˜long the way, boys
But I was never travelin' alone
We'll meet again on some bright highway
Songs to sing and tales to tell
But I am just a pilgrim on this road, boys
Until I see you fare thee well
Ain't no need to cry for me, boys
Somewhere down the road you'll understand
€˜Cause I expect to touch his hand, boys
Put a word in for you if I can

We really want to know some stuff about lip gloss. We have it for a topic in our science fair, and we'd really like to win. So if anybody has any information on lip gloss, please post it. And you can send any kind of information that you think will help, we just really need something to help us out.
Thank you!
Ryan and Brooke
Contact a couple of the companies, either by phone (most companies will offer an 800 number) or by email. If you have time, a written letter will work as well and when they respond you'll have the response in writing so to speak! (02/26/2005)
Check into the ingredients in several big name lip glosses. For example; Carmex, which a lot of people use, contains salicylic acid which is actually a drying agent, so it really dries out your lips which just makes you use more. You can do a poll to find out what the favorite lip gloss is (collect data). What exactly are you trying to find out about lip gloss? What is the point you are trying to make with your presentation? Keep those things in mind, and you will do great. (02/27/2005)
By Kelly
Until very recently, I'm talking a couple years tops and some still do this, major cosmetic companies purchased whale blubber from the fisherman who hunted them. What for? They would strain the fat and use it as the moisturizing and solidifying ingredient in lip products. So you and I were rubbing a dead animal's fat on our mouths. SICK! Put that in your project. And make sure you only buy products that are animal product and testing free. (02/27/2005)
By Suzanne S.
Have you ever actually looked up the ingredients? Lip gloss is mostly made of different waxes and flavoring. Although the lip gloss from Elf cosmetics main ingredient can be lethal in large doses. Pretty interesting. (02/11/2008)
Whale products are not used in cosmetics anymore. Most everything is created in a lab. (03/24/2008)
By kibby
I made my lip gloss out of honey, shortening, and food coloring. (06/28/2008)

A Practical, Authoritative Compendium CRC Handbook of Medicinal Herbs catalogs 365 species of herbs having medicinal or folk medicinal uses, presenting whatever useful information has been documented on their toxicity and utility in humans and animals. Plants from all over the world – from common cultivars to rare species – are included in these 700 pages. The toxicity of these species varies, but the safety of each has been formally or informally questioned by the Food and Drug Administration, National Cancer Institute, Department of Agriculture, Drug Enforcement Administration, or Herb Trade Association.
Easy-to-Locate Facts and Figures Designed to enable fast access to important information, this handbook presents information in both catalog and tabular forms. In the catalog section, plants are presented alphabetically by scientific name. (The index permits you to locate an herb by its common name.) A detailed sketch of the chief identifying features accompanies most catalog entries. For each species the following information, as available, is presented and referenced:
Family and colloquial names
- Chemical content
- Uses and applications – present and historical
- Processing, distribution, and economic potential
- Toxicological agents and degree of toxicity
- Poison symptoms in humans and animals
- Treatment and antidotes
- References to original literature
Five Tables of Accessible Data Given a plant species, you can easily determine its toxins; or, given a toxin, you can discover which plants contain it. These and other data are presented in convenient tabular formats as appendixes to the handbook. Other information contained in these tables include toxicity ranking and other toxicity data (as applicable), such as mode of contact, organs affected, and lethal dose; and proximate analyses of selected foods. These tables are titled:
- Medicinal Herbs: Toxicity Ranking and Pricelist
- Toxins: Their Toxicity and Distribution in Plant Genera
- High Plant Genera and Their Toxins
- Pharmacologically Active Phytochemicals
- Proximate Analyses of Conventional Plant Foods

On a GAAP basis, to include AIT costs of $13.1 million, operating earnings were $161.9 million.For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, BJS operating earnings of $37.3 million increased 81.1 percent as compared with the prior year period. Operating margin of 14.3 percent expanded 310 basis points, reflecting the 41.6 percent increase in revenues, an improved mix of revenues and ongoing operational improvements. LIQUIDITY AND BALANCE SHEET METRICS During the quarter the Company strengthened its balance sheet by issuing $800 million of senior unsecured notes due 2022, priced to yield 4.9 percent, and redeemed its $600 million issue of 8.5 percent senior unsecured notes due 2018. In connection with the third quarter notes redemption, the Company recorded debt prepayment costs of $82.1 million or $0.56 per diluted share. Free cash flow of $48.1 million in the current quarter reflects capital expenditures of $29.9 million and an approximate 19 percent increase in working capital to support the approximately 21 percent third quarter increase in revenues and the Company's expectation for double-digit revenue growth over the next several years including deliveries of Boeing 737 modular lavatories, A350 galley systems and certain other supplier furnished equipment. As of September 30, 2012, cash was $395 million, net debt, which represents total long term debt of $1.96 billion less cash, was $1.566 billion and the Company's net debt-to-net capital ratio was 43 percent. BOOKINGS/BACKLOG Bookings during the third quarter of 2012 were approximately $800 million, an increase of approximately 21 percent as compared with the third quarter of 2011, and reflect a book-to-bill ratio of approximately 1.05 to 1. Approximately 65 percent of bookings in the current quarter were driven by a higher level of demand for products to outfit new-buy aircraft. Backlog at the end of the quarter was approximately $3.75 billion, while total backlog, both booked and awarded but unbooked, was approximately $8.25 billion, an increase of approximately 19 percent as compared with September 30, 2011.

Arizona Lawmakers Move to Strip Governor Jan Brewer of Commutation Power
A group of state representatives has introduced a bill that would strip the governor of the power to commute prison sentences and hand it over to the Arizona Board of Executive Clemency.
The legislation, formally titled HCR 2025: the Arizona Commutation Reform Act, is designed to ease over-crowding and save money -- not to mention, spare the governor political pressure.
Here's how the commutation process works today: the Board of Executive Clemency holds monthly parole hearings for inmates who have committed offenses prior to January 1994, as well as clemency hearings -- including commutation and pardons. After two years in prison, inmates can apply to the board, which weeds out cases in two hearing phases then makes a written recommendation to the governor. The governor then decides whether to sign off on their commutation.
The problem, according to the Arizona Committee for Commutation Reform, is that tough-talking politicians -- like Jan Brewer -- don't have the stones to release an inmate for fear of a political backlash.

The BOEC estimates that 84 percent of cases recommended to the governor are rejected each year. According to a press release from the Arizona Committee for Commutation Reform, only 53 cases out of 340 total have been approved by the governor over the last six years. This has cost the state $25.7 million dollars in revenue to house prisoners towards whom the board has recommended leniency.
The BOEC press release goes on to say "once the Governor-appointed BOEC approves an inmate for a commutation of sentence, the process then moves on to the Governor's office where the decision becomes a political one -- the decision for the sake of all parties involved should rest on the individual case alone and not the political pressures inherent with an elected official."
The legislation comes in the wake of a controversy over the governor's refusal to commute a man's sentence despite the board's unanimous recommendation that he be released from prison.
William Macumber (pictured above) is the first man in Arizona history to be unanimously recommended for clemency by the board without a DNA exoneration. Macumber first applied for clemency December 15, 2008. On August 25, 2009 the board unanimously recommended in a letter to the governor that he be released, partly because of his "extraordinary accomplishments" in prison but also because of the "substantial doubt that Mr. Macumber is guilty of the crime for which he was convicted."
That "substantial doubt" stems from the fact that his wife, who worked in the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office at the time of the murders, reported to her supervisors that he had "confessed" the crime to her -- a claim she made while they were going through a nasty divorce. Her son now believes that his mother framed his father, and so, apparently, does the parole board.
But Brewer didn't see it that way. In November 2009, she denied him clemency, but declined to elaborate.
Last October, Macumber's son, Ronald Kempfert, showed up at one of Brewer's press conferences and asked her to explain why she denied his father clemency. Brewer called it an "unfortunate situation," said she appreciated his "concerns," but had made her decision and it was "final." She abruptly ended her press conference.
Politicians are notoriously afraid to grant clemency or pardons lest the released prisoner commit a crime afterward, like Michael Dukakis and Mike Huckabee have learned -- the hard way. This bill would take that responsibility out of the governor's hands and place them into the board's, whose members are appointed by the governor to seek justice and reward reform, which the governor isn't always able or willing to do.
The bill was introduced by Reps. Cecil Ash, Daniel Patterson, Tom Chabin, Brenda Barton, Eric Meyer, Kate Brophy McGee, Richard Miranda, Peggy Judd, David Burnell Smith, and Catherine Miranda, as well as Sen. Ron Gould.
