As we began to prepare dinner together, we were standing side by side, talking. I don't remember what he said, but I turned to look at him and when I did, I saw him looking into my eyes. Our gaze locked together and we slowly began moving toward each other.
Closer and closer our faces got, when suddenly he ever so gently pressed his lips to mine. After a short moment, we parted, again looking into each others eyes. This time I moved toward him,and soon felt electrical shock waves pass through my body as his thick chest hair brush against my smooth chest and our semi hard cocks rubbed together.
Our lips met again, and this time our tongues were soon exploring the inside of each others mouth. After a hot passionate kiss, we parted and when we did, Marc smiled and said, "We better get dinner prepared."
"Yes, we should, but I think desert will be better."
"I'm sure it will be," he replied.
We finished dinner and cleaned up the kitchen. As we finished, I took his hand in mine and led him to my bedroom. We were both ready for 'desert'.
We were soon laying side by side as we began kissing and exploring each others body with out hands.
Soon, Marc began kissing and licking his way down my body as I moaned softly in pleasure. He began working on my cock, sucking me lovingly, before later moving on to my balls, then to my ass where he gave me the best rim job I had ever experienced.
After a few moments I stopped him and puled him back up beside me where e again kissed passionately. I then began servicing him as he had done me. Both his cock and his ass were delicious.
Before long, he began to change positions and seconds later we were engaged in a hot sixty-nine, hungrily devouring each others cock. Soon, only seconds apart, our cocks erupted feeding each other our huge built up loads. We each eagerly accepted the sweet thick creamy load fed to us and after swallowing, we again kissed for several moments.
We cuddled together in silence for a while before he softly said, "Damn, am I gad you picked me up."
"So am I. I'm just glad I saw you in time."
We kissed and cuddled for a while in silence when both our cocks began to stiffen again. He reached down and began stroking mine ad said, "I want that up my ass."
"Gladly," I replied, "then I want yours up mine."
Smiling, he said, "What ever you want."
Seconds later I had my cock buried in Marc's ass and was fucking him wildly as he moaned in pleasure. It didn't take me long to reach my climax and I convulsed as I filled his hot tight ass.
I slowly pulled out and rolled onto my back and raised my legs waiting for his entry and the pleasure of having him deposit his load up me. He didn't keep me waiting and was soon fucking me with his fantastic cock. After filling me with his hot thick load, we showered together before returning to bed. Cuddled together, we ere soon asleep.
The next morning I awoke to find his hot et mouth gently sucking on my morning wood. Soon, I filled his mouth and before he could swallow, I said, "Kiss me!"
He did and we shared my load. Then I sucked him and as he filled my mouth, he said, "Share it with me."
I did and it was awesome. We headed for the kitchen to start pot of coffee and as we did, he asked, "Mike, do you ever eat your own load when you jerk off?"
"I have when I jerk off to hot porn which is often. Ho about you?"
"Hell yea! I eat it every time I jerk off regardless of where I'm at. Cum is too precious to waste."
"I can't argue that," I replied.
As we sat pool side drinking our coffee, we began finding out about each other. I told Marc that I was a civil attorney. He asked when I realized that I was gay and I said in my junior year of high school.
"How did it happen?"
"I was on the football team," I began, "and went in after classes to ask my coach a question. I thought everyone was gone but when I got to his office I found him, the assistant coach, and the team quarterback, all naked and coach and the quarterback in a sixty-nine and the assistant coach fucking the quarterback."
"Holy shit! What happened?"
"They jumped up scared shitless then coach noticed the boner in my jeans and told me to come over to him. Before I knew it, he had my jeans down and was sucking me while the assistant coach began eating my ass. The quarterback began kissing me and soon he had his cock in my mouth. I enjoyed seeing guys naked and looking at their cocks and had wondered what it would be like to have sex with another male. We al got together regularly after that. What about you?"
"I had jerked off with some buds in school but nothing else. I knew I enjoyed watching them shoot their loads. Then, after I joined the Marines, I was in boot camp and had gone to the showers. It was late and soon the drill sergeant came in nude and took the shower right next to me. I noticed that he kept looking over at my cock and before long I started getting hard."
"What did he say?"
"Nothing right then, but he started getting boned also. We showered, both totally boned and afterward he began stroking his cock, telling me to join him if I wanted to. I did and after a moment he suggested we dry off and go to his room. We did and once there we started stroking again then he suddenly reached out and began stroking mine. As he did he took my hand and put it on his cock. Then after a few minutes, we lay down on his bed n basically a sixty-nine position and he began sucking my cock. I loved it and was curious. I soon started sucking him and he rest is history. We sucked every night and soon started fucking each other. He sure made boot camp fun. I was assigned to the military police and sent to a base on the east coast. One day my supervisor called me into his office. As I stood waiting to see what he wanted, he came up and began groping me and said my former DI had called him and told him I was hot. We had sex and he introduced me to orgies."
"All fellow Marines?"
"Mostly, however at times there were civilians involved."
"You still in the Marines?"
"Yea, but I get out in just over five months. I've been taking online courses to become a private investigator when I get out."
"I see," I said then asked if his brother knew he was gay and he said yes but totally accepted it.
I soon got quiet and he asked what was wrong.
"I hate he idea of you having to leave today," I replied.
He lifted my face to look at him and said, "Who says I have to leave today?"
Looking into his eyes, I asked, "What?"
"Rick has no idea that I'm arriving early, so I can stay here until Monday morning if you really want me to."
"Fuck yea, I want you to," I replied, jumping up and kissing him.
We stayed nude the entire weekend having sex several times day. On Sunday, I asked if he would be interested in a three way.
"Only if he is as hot as you," he replied.
"Well, he's a couple of years older, extremely well built, good looking and has just over eight beautiful inches."
"That's all I needed to hear. Does he like to shove it up guys asses?"
"Oh, yea and love others up him, especially two at a time."
"Holy fuck! He likes to be double fucked?"
"He loves it."
"Get him over here."
I made my call and set it up, telling my friend to come straight from work.
At shortly after five the doorbell rang. Marc and I were still nude and I went to the door. Marc stayed in the den and when my friend and I walked in, Marc nearly shit.
I introduced Marc to Clay and said, "Yes, he really is a state cop."
"Mother fuck," Marc said. "I've dreamed of sucking a cop while he was in uniform."
"Here's your chance," Clay said before tongue kissing Marc.
Marc quickly dropped to his knees and while Clay and I kissed, Marc extracted Clay's cock from his uniform pants. Soon, Clay moaned and I knew his cock was buried down Marc's throat.
After Marc took and swallowed Clay's load, Clay stripped then sucked Mark then me.
We visited a while before Marc said he wanted Clay's cock up his ass. Moments later, Clay had eight and a half hard thick inches buried in his ass. He moaned continuously in pleasure. Soon, Clay filled his ass with a hot thick load.
After pulling out, Clay looked at me and said, "Now, you know what I want."
I had Marc lay on his back and as he did, Clay sat on his cock. After a moment, Clay leaned forward and I got into position between Marc's legs and began inserting my cock into Clay's ass with Marc's.
"Fuck! This is awesome," Marc said.
Before long, Marc and I both climaxed up Clay's ass as Clay said how much he was enjoying it.
"It's been a while since I had two studs up me at the same time. Thanks. It was super hot."
We watched at Clay dressed and Marc asked if he was sure he had to go.
"Oh yea. If I'm too late, my wife will be calling to see where I'm at."
"Fuck! You're married? Does she know anything?"
"Yes, I'm married and no she doesn't know I love sex with guys."
Clay left and later Marc and I had a hot sixty- nine before eventually fucking each other before going to sleep.
Monday morning we had another sixty-nine before I dropped him off at the truck stop.
"May I stop on my way back through?" he asked.
"You damn well better," I replied, before driving off.
We talked almost daily and just over a week later there was a knock on my door. It was Marc.
I let him in and after a long hot passionate kiss, I asked how long he could stay.
"A couple of days, then I have to get back to base."
"Let's make the best of it," I said escorting him to the bedroom.
After a hot sixty-nine I asked how his visit with his brother went.
"Much better that I ever expected."
"The night before his bachelor party he and I went drinking. He got pretty wasted and I made him stay with me in my hotel room. I had one king bed and he was my brother. During the night, he woke me up and said he was horny and asked me to give him a blow job. I tried to refuse but he begged me and said he wanted to see what it was like. I gave in and blew him."
"Did he remember it the next morning?"
"Oh, yea. He said it was awesome and asked if he could fuck me. I let him and while I was on my back and he was pounding my hole he tongue kissed me. I loved it and later that afternoon I asked if he wanted to do either again and he quickly said no. He said that although it was enjoyable, he just wanted to see what it was like and had no plans to do it again."
"His loss," I said.
Marc and I had wild passionate sex while he was there and I was extremely depressed when it was time for him to leave.
"I'll call," he promised.
I dropped him off at the bus station and drove home with tears in my eyes. I realized that I had fallen in love with him.

T-Mobile brand to remain if Sprint merger's approved, $2B compensation if blocked?
You may be sick to the back teeth of analysis and speculation on the purported deal between Deutsche Telekom and SoftBank to merge Sprint and T-Mobile in to one giant carrier capable of matching Verizon and AT&T. But, some further rumor mill spinning took place today at CNBC. And – if true – it could see the success, or failure of a merger leaving T-Mo in a better state than it is now. … [read full article]

Looks like a chupacabra, be careful.
a puppy dog, duh
He doesn't have a tail. Like at all. Not even a stub.
some dog breeds are actually born completely without tails and in the picture i can't see its ears, how big are they? if they' re big then its a king charles spaniel puppy estaticos1.milanuncios.com/.../...-192457127_1.jpg
or if they are small then its a rottweiler puppy www.newdogworld.com/.../Rottweiler-7.jpg
there's so many id have to see its ears
or a Boston terrier/bulldog mix
Oh my fucking God those things are adorable
@FallOutBoy2001 you ain't seen nothing yet, golden retriever puppies are one of the the cutest out there
I guess we were all wrong. I took him to the vet, and immidestepy they called aspca it was a black bear cub.
wow, well the picture wasn't that good to tell very well
A puppy. Hope that the little fellow is okay.
A puppy who wants his belly rubbed!!! 😁😁
Do you mean dead?
Ring the RSPCA
I think it's a saltwater crocodile. I would go to the graveyard and get Steve Irwin!
Looks like a Border Collie dog.
It's clearly a vicious adult shark.
... It's a puppy dog, really? You really had to ask this question?
I don't think he's a puppy. He doesn't have a tail, like at all. Not even a stub.
Unfortunately, some young animals are abused - my cat had his bits loped off months after he was allowed to. Some dog owners dock their tails and the same could have happened here.
Instead of asking the Internet, take him/her to the vets. It's free for a situation like this (was for me - I took my cat and it was free so I was able to advertise accurately).
You need to know, even if you insist on not taking him, you need to know what he is for food. Certain foods are poisonous.
Aww it's a puppy. If you're worried about him not having a tail, it's because many dogs get their tail "docked" aka cut off at birth
I'm going to go with a dog although I can't really see it's face. It's definitely a puppy but I can't tell how many weeks it is. I'm curious did it wonder onto your porch or did someone leave it.
Girl, if you can't tell that's a dog, you need to give him to the no-kill shelter first thing in the morning because you can't help him.
a puppy. I hope he A-okay
A puppy. Is it ok?

James Harkin is New CIJ Director
The staff and board of the Centre for Investigative Journalism (CIJ) are happy to announce that James Harkin has been appointed new director for the Centre for Investigative Journalism at Goldsmiths, University of London.
James Harkin is a journalist who covers social change and political conflict and whose work appears in Vanity Fair, Harper's, GQ, The Smithsonian, Prospect and The Guardian. A former director of talks at the Institute for Contemporary Arts (ICA), he once taught politics at Oxford University, and was associate producer on Adam Curtis's two BBC series The Trap and All Watched Over By Machines of Loving Grace.
For the last five years he's been reporting on the Syrian conflict from all sides. His last book, Hunting Season, an investigative account of the rise of the Islamic State group and its campaign of kidnapping journalists, was published in November 2015 by Little, Brown in the UK and Hachette in the US.
Last October the CIJ's founder and director Gavin MacFadyen died of lung cancer. Journalist and CIJ Bertha fellow Matt Kennard, took over as acting director when Gavin became ill in 2016. Matt is now stepping down to focus full-time on his investigative journalistic practice.
The board and staff of the CIJ thank Matt Kennard for his loyal support and management of the CIJ during this period of transition.
James Harkin will start as director of the CIJ as of the 1 May 2017.
The CIJ is a charity that champions critical, in-depth reporting and the defence of the public interest. It came into being in 2003 to address a deepening crisis in investigative reporting. The primary mission of the CIJ is to provide a centre of excellence for the training of journalists; to raise the standard of investigative reporting to a high professional level.
This year, #CIJSummer Investigative Journalism Conference will take place on 22-24 June at Goldsmiths, University of London. At the opening Anabel Hernández will deliver the inaugural Gavin MacFadyen Memorial Lecture. She is a Mexican journalist who has confronted head-on – at significant personal risk to her and her family – corruption and the narcotics trade in Mexico.

No problem. When you pick up your vehicle, Enterprise will take your valid credit or debit card to place on file. In the event of a difference, Enterprise will automatically charge the outstanding balance to the card on file.

Manufacturer-recommended maintenance is covered. Return the vehicle to your designated Enterprise location and it will be taken care of for you. Not near the designated Enterprise location? Call Enterprise and you will be directed to a nearby authorized provider — at no cost to you.
Absolutely. If you are in good standing with Enterprise and you're still a qualified Uber driver partner, you can book another reservation anytime.

About Kim
I've had animals in my life for over 20 years. Currently, I have a couple of mixed breed terriers (Tiggs and Suzy) who love a good walk on the common and scrambling in the undergrowth. I love being outdoors with them and having longs walks and meeting other owners. We are very fortunate where we live as we have lots of woods,parks and Commons nearby which gives a lot of variety to our walks. We live in a four bed roomed house with a nice garden, despite my sons best efforts and because I have semi retired, it gives me an opportunity to do things I really enjoy like taking the dogs out regularly. If you feel like you can't give your beloved dog the quality time for a good walk then I would love to do this for you.+ More

Midnapore, April 17: A policeman chopped off a teenagers hand from the wrist while she held on to the handle of a bus door so that he could not drag her down.
The girls fault: giving the cold shoulder to Calcutta police constable Rakesh Alu.
Indrani Boyals brother and father were hacked at when they came to her rescue.
All three are fighting for their lives at the Ghatal Subdivisional Hospital.
Rakesh, 27, was also hospitalised, after being thrashed by a mob at the bus stop in Daspur, West Midnapore.
He apparently had an affair with Indrani, 19, for the past two years but she had started avoiding him of late.
Around 9.30 this morning, she was going to Ghatal with her parents and brother Parthasarathi to update her records at the employment exchange. The siblings were on the footboard and the parents were waiting their turn to board the bus when Rakesh arrived on a motorcycle and whipped out a dagger.
He tried to drag Indrani out of the bus and, shrieking in panic, she caught hold of the handle rod firmly.
Failing in his attempt to pull her down, Rakesh started hacking at her hand. Within seconds, Indranis right hand was hanging from shreds of muscles and tendons on the wrist.
Parthasarathi, 24, grabbed Rakesh and took several dagger blows on his face and hands as did Shibaprasad, 62, a former high school teacher.
Stunned and choking, mother Snehalata also a schoolteacher took time to raise an alarm. When others at the bus stop gathered their wits and rushed in, Rakesh was still swinging his blood-soaked weapon wildly. Indrani, Parthasarathi and Shibaprasad had collapsed.
The superintendent of the Ghatal hospital said Indranis right hand had to be amputated from the wrist. A portion of the left palm had also been lopped off, said Sisir Das.
The siblings, who underwent three-and-a-half-hour operations, will be shifted to Calcutta for further treatment.
Indrani is a first year BA student and Parthasarathi, an engineer who works in Calcutta, about 120 km from their home at Samat village.
Rakesh lives in neighbouring Rajnagar.
We questioned people at both Rajnagar and Samat and came to know that the two had a relationship, which had been strained of late, a Daspur police officer said.
Snehalata alleged that Rakesh had forced her daughter to sign a paper in January and claimed that they were married. We had lodged a police complaint against him for disturbing our daughter, she said.
At the Daspur block health centre, Rakesh accused the parents of forcing Indrani to distance herself from him and refusing to accept that they were married. I wanted to kill them all and commit suicide, said the man who works in the city polices minor traffic violation wing.

That coffee machine looks really nice. Do you know what brand it is? Cost? Do guests ever screw anything up when using it?
Washington Post states that the Women's March is on.
but isn't this price gouging?
Interesting questions. Wikipedia defines gouging as
"Price gouging is a pejorative term referring to when a seller spikes the prices of goods, services or commodities to a level much higher than is considered reasonable or fair, and is considered exploitative, potentially to an unethical extent. Usually this event occurs after a demand or supply shock: common examples include price increases of basic necessities after hurricanes or other natural disasters. In precise, legal usage, it is the name of a crime that applies in some jurisdictions of the United States during civil emergencies. In less precise usage, it can refer either to prices obtained by practices inconsistent with a competitive free market, or to windfall profits. In the former Soviet Union, it was simply included under the single definition of speculation."
Hotels are currently increasing their prices on average 262% - of the hotels that I'm tracking, all under $1,000. There are plenty of room available for over $1,000. I think it may not be considered gouging as people can choose to come. Gouging is when there is a flood and people are charging $500 for a $25 life vest.
I think the reason that it's not 'gouging' is people are free to come or not. It may exclude a certain class of people, but so does every concert ticket. I'd love to go to the Kennedy Center a lot more often but I can't afford to. Does that mean they are gouging? Someone is able to buy those seats, just not me or my family. When I have been, I'm stunned at the number of families that do attend. More power to 'em. Honestly I've only afforded it when my own daughter (brag alert) was dancing there.
@dcmooney inquiring minds NEED to know! Did you get a booking and for how much!?
I don't think @dcmooney got a booking sadly.
@Zandra is absolutely correct. Nothing. I have spent hours searching listings and hotel prices and always tried to price accordingly - taking into account the basement apartment, outside of city center, etc. Also thinking I should be able to consider my reviews - which - hey hey!! I just got my 100th!! I've always tried to price competitively. I've not tried to play games.
Just as an example of pricing, the Homewood Suites, only 8 miles closer to town, is still listed at $609 for 4 guests in 1 room, 1 queen and 1 sofa bed_. Many hotels are in that range, many higher.
I'm currently at $352. Homewood has just three rooms left in the entire hotel. So, people are paying that kind of money.
Comparing myself to other airbnb listings - there are only about 26 listings at my price or lower that are located inside the beltway, equidistant or closer to town than me. Most are new with no reviews or few…
With IB on that number drops to 5.
Using the superhost filter only, IB off, it drops to 2.
I've played with my verbiage, added some better photos, jerked the price up and down - I really don't know what else to do but to just let it go. I don't think I'll ever understand it, though.
So…I don't think it's my price. I don't know what to think. When I can, I don't think about it at all.
But, one thing I grapple with - I've already made $600 because of the cancellation. I told her I would refund most of it if I rebooked. She asked twice what was happening. I responded with lots of stats and prices - all from my research. I know that I'm perfectly in my rights to keep the dough, but I don't like being paid for nothing.
Thanks for thinking of me!
You should try to have your listing on booking.com for these special days.
90% are already booked for 5 persons…and the minimum price is so high.
Congrats on reaching that milestone!
You still might get a last minute booking from someone, especially if there is nice weather. I know if I were considering going and was driving in I'd be watching the weather forecast.
great idea!
I did start a listing with them but didn't like the lack of ID verification as I have kids in my home. But I'm going to do it.
maybe Craig's list?
It's just all so crazy.
have just the dates open for the inauguration.
You will be in concurrence with only booking.com listing and if you see the minimum price it's crazy.
Don't know craig list.
i don't think anyone booked at those crazy prices to be honest… weeks ago there was some expert on here who said everyone had their prices high but no-one was biting.
Well When I am looking our city for some dates very booked .People are booking for high prices.
you don't need to believe me. You just need to believe that @dcmooney hasn't been able to get a booking at a higher rate. I think the same people looking on booking.com are able to look on airbnb, assuming they have a computer. I personally don't think those rates you see tell the whole story or Nancy should have cleared up weeks ago…
Of course I mean there are high prices and too high prices…
But I agree that she can't have the same price as hotels, it's need to be lower
I'm $257 cheaper than a hotel only 8 miles closer, that provides much less space, fewer beds.
That's a good thought!!
Honestly, and not to be political, but Trump's inauguration is a total downer. You probably would have been booked at a satisfactory rate right now had Hillary been elected.
DC itself is a very Democratic city. The idea of Trump is just, well…
Other Than that DC, it's the time of year causing your slowdown. Not competition. JMHO?
My husband was saying something similar this evening - that a Trump supporter may be more comfortable with the anonymity of a hotel. Especially as Maryland is a very democratic state. Guests may not prefer to risk it.
Last January wasn't bad - 68% booked (not including many blocked dates for the holiday) - but my average price per night was $59. Some families of 5 stayed for $78 a night. I may lower my prices again as some income is better than none. I have 4 nights booked this month.
And I agree - the whole situation is a downer.
While I agree that the inauguration is a Debbie Downer, there are other events occurring during the time.
It does make me think that the hype around these events is just hot air.

The 125-250cc category of motorbikes is seeing action these days, with the launch of Hero Honda's Achiever 150cc bike due in November '05. For FY05, 7.4 lakh 125-150cc bikes were sold, accounting for 15% of all motorbike sales. During April-August '05, 3.5 lakh bikes in this category (defined as B3 by SIAM) have been sold - up 65% from a year ago, accounting for 16% of all motorbike sales till date.
With rising disposable incomes, greater desire for power and style, and easy finance still available, Indian consumers are moving steadily up the power scale. The absolute sales of every player have risen as the segment itself expanded from 4.5 lakh in FY04 to 7.4 lakh in FY05, a growth of 64%. By contrast, the fiercely competitive B2 category (75-125cc), which accounts for 84% all motorbike sales in India, grew 14% to 41.7 lakh units in FY05 and in April-August '05 sold 13% more bikes than a year ago.
Bajaj Auto led the pack in FY05, with 3.9 lakh units, accounting for nearly 53% of all 125-250cc bikes sold that year. Hero Honda sold 1.2 lakh units, giving it a market share of 17%. TVS Motor held 14% marketshare in FY05 while Yamaha had 7% and Honda Motorcycles and Scooters (HMSI) garnered 9%. Market shares have undergone a shift in the past two years in the 125-250cc segments, with Bajaj Auto's share falling from 63% in FY04 to 53% in FY05. Hero Honda gained from 7% to 17% and TVS Motor rose from 10% to 14%.
Bajaj has brands like the Pulsar and Discover, Hero Honda, the CBZ, Karizma, 125cc Splendor, Ambition 135cc, and now the Achiever; TVS Motor has Victor and Fiero; Yamaha has the Fazer; LML the Graptor; and HMSI the 150cc Unicorn. With the 125-250cc segment expected to grow faster than any other category for the rest of the year, introduction of new brands may not alter relative market shares significantly in the second half of FY06.

Feb 1 (Reuters) - Axiall Corp shareholder Brigade Capital Management LP urged the chemicals company to consider selling itself and to restart discussions with Westlake Chemical Corp to negotiate a better offer.
Axiall said on Friday that it had rejected Westlake's $1.4 billion takeover offer, saying it undervalued the company - an argument that Brigade Capital agreed with.
However, the hedge fund, which said it has a stake of about 2 percent in Axiall, said on Monday it was disappointed that the company had not engaged "more fully in substantive discussions" with Westlake to negotiate a higher offer.
Brigade Capital said in a letter to Axiall's board that it opposed the use of a "poison pill" with respect to Westlake's offer of $20 per share.
Westlake, a Houston-based manufacturer and supplier of petrochemicals, polymers and building products, had argued that the combined company would be more diversified and have a stronger financial profile than Axiall on its own.
Axiall shares were down 2.6 percent at $17.46 in afternoon trading, while Westlake was down 2.2 percent at $44.47. (Reporting by Amrutha Gayathri in Bengaluru; Editing by Savio D'Souza)

That's Yale Galanter, responding to a suit brought by his Nevada co-counsel Gabriel Grasso who has sued Yale for not paying him to help represent OJ:
Gabriel Grasso alleges in a civil breach of contract lawsuit that he was promised $250,000 to serve as local attorney following Simpson's arrest in September 2007. But he said Yale Galanter only paid him $15,000.
Galanter told The Associated Press that he hadn't been served with the lawsuit and couldn't comment on it. But he said he intends to fight.
"You can say anything you want in a lawsuit. Proving it is another matter," Galanter said Tuesday. "Gabe Grasso got paid everything he was supposed to get paid commensurate with his skill level, his ability level and his responsibilities as local counsel in Las Vegas."
The 17-page lawsuit, filed Friday filed in Clark County District Court in Las Vegas, seeks unspecified damages in excess of $50,000. It cites "extensive and time consuming" proceedings between Simpson's arrest in September 2007 and trial a year later.
Galanter, who is licensed in Florida but not Nevada, engaged Grasso as a Nevada lawyer and obtained permission from the trial judge to take part in the Simpson case in Las Vegas.
Grasso's lawyer, Joshua Tomsheck said Tuesday that Grasso did "the lion's share of the work." Grasso declined comment.
"They had a legal, binding agreement," Tomsheck said. "All the motions were filed by Gabriel Grasso. All the Nevada legal research was done by Gabriel Grasso. The agreement was that he would be paid for his expertise."
If you can say anything you want in a lawsuit, I'd like to try some romantic poetry, perhaps "Valentine" by John Fuller?
You know, lighten the mood in the introductory paragraphs up a little bit:
The things about you I appreciate may seem indelicate:Denied and admitted in part -- admitted as to finding defendant in the shower, denied as to chasing said soap for "half an hour;" the remainder of this paragraph is denied, including the alleged offer of a flower, and defendant hereby demands strict proof thereof.
I'd like to find you in the shower
And chase the soap for half an hour.
I'd like to have you in my power and see you eyes dilate.
I'd like to have your back to scour
And other parts to lubricate.
Sometimes I feel it is my fate
To chase you screaming up a tower or make you cower
By asking you to differentiate Nietzsche from Schopenhauer.
I'd like to successfully guess your weight and win you at a fete.
I'd like to offer you a flower.
(I've seen crazier things in pleadings.)

"Game changer" is a term you hear often when people talk about how technology has changed their industry.
To drive revenues and gain competitive advantage, the two most important functions in any organization are sales and marketing. But over the years, a gap has developed between these two functions creating friction between them.

 This wide divide can seriously impact a company's ability to create meaningful customer experiences, drive revenues, and create company profitability. To quote a 2008 CMO study, "The traditional relationship between sales, marketing, and channel groups is more agnostic than synergistic."

 If your own organization is experiencing sales and marketing friction, immediate attention toward mending the relationship is critical. Sales and marketing must work together in collaboration to increase productivity for both teams, optimize revenue delivery, and reduce costs. Indeed, these days, companies can ill afford the wasted dollars lack of collaboration creates.

 Consider the following facts:

 • Upwards of 90 percent of what gets created in the name of sales support goes unused in the field, as reported by the American Advertising Association.

 • According to Forrester Research, 47 percent of B2B marketers say sales closes less than 4 percent of all marketing-generated leads,

 • According to a CMO Council study, 40 percent of the typical sales rep's time is spent creating presentations and customizing messages.

 • Also courtesy of the CMO Council: Some 70 percent of channel partners say their vendor company's marketing campaigns are ineffective or somewhat ineffective in driving their business.

 The customer experience falls into the gap between marketing and sales. In the "old days," the roles of marketing and sales were clear:

 1. Products were created.

 2. Marketing built strategy, created brand awareness, managed product launches, and produced collateral defining features and benefits.

 3. Sales took over, working prospects in the field, building relationships, educating customers, and closing sales.

 Then globalization appeared, creating commoditization of products and services and forcing differentiation through customer experience—rather than unique product features. Of course, the Internet changed the way customers educate themselves on industry issues, challenges, products, and services. New technologies also allow customers to block out marketing and sales messages, putting the customer in complete control.

 The customer no longer relies on the sales rep to educate him, and engages with sales on his own terms. In addition, customers don't want to hear about features and benefits. What they do want today is real solutions to real problems.

 Clearly, the traditional product-centric collateral is no longer sufficient to support sales. The marketing teams stuck in this product mode will frustrate sales as they yearn for ready-messages demonstrating solutions for customers.

 When a sales team is under pressure to deliver, renegade pieces are created by sales with cut-and-paste precision. Typically, the product-centric marketer responds to sales renegade pieces with equal frustration, believing brand consistency has been compromised.

 Sales and marketing groups can break this non-productive cycle by working together on a new model that works within a customer-driven marketplace. The new model must recognize the sales and marketing partnership in the delivery of customer experience and brand strategy. Working together, the sales and marketing teams should define the business outcomes generated with implementation of the new model, and establish shared objectives and goals.

 Creating the Customer Experience with messages that work
 Sales needs ready messaging that help them communicate how their product or service solves customer problems or supports customer advantage. The reality is that, sales teams piece together messages on their own because they know selling scenarios are unique to the customer and customized messaging is what's needed to advance and close the sale. In today's selling environment, the sales team crafts the customer experience and delivers the brand strategy.

 The clear solution to closing the gap between sales and marketing, managing the customer experience and delivering consistent brand messaging is the development of a new model designed by both teams. This new model is the foundation for both teams to collaborate in partnership to develop a consistent brand and customer experience that advances revenues. Authors Riester and Emo in their book Customer Message Management, provide an excellent framework for both teams to follow. The framework they call "message" map describes how the two teams can collaborate to create a full series new of messaging. This new messaging is based on solution selling and is used by the sales teams in the field

 Once the model is complete, marketing platforms automate the model and enable the sales field to effectively execute messages. Marketing platforms typically include administration tools to help marketers populate and organize messages, and enable creative teams to design delivery templates that sales can quickly execute.

 Advanced platforms include dashboards that measure action against goals, providing progress visibility for both teams. A dashboard is a great way to maintain collaboration, keeping both teams on the same page with transparency that builds trust and fosters greater teamwork. Most platforms run on a single data mart, customized to meet dashboard and analytic requirements.

 The key to successful execution of this new model is sales field adoption. This means any platform must be extremely easy to use with strong support and training. The marketing platform becomes the marketing department's tool to manage the customer experience and enables sales to deliver it.

 Ironically, the cost of marketing automation contributed to the sales and marketing divide. Indeed, the cost to maintain marketing support of sales in the product-centric model versus the investment required in marketing automation was a major inhibitor of marketing and sales collaboration of a new model.

 In a 2007 white paper, Forrester Research reported the number one barrier to marketing technology adoption was the ability to prove ROI: "The cost of marketing technology, along with the scrutiny marketers face for their capital expenditures, limits marketing technology adoption, especially among those firms most likely to adopt new technologies.

 "More than half of marketers say that high costs prevent them from using technology to improve their marketing efforts, while 47 percent indicate that the uncertainty of ROI precludes better use of marketing technology."

 Today, marketing technologies to support sales and marketing are available in SaaS or monthly hosted models. The investment is no longer prohibitive and the ROI can be proved, even in today's economic environment.

 The wasted dollars created when sales and marketing are not aligned captures the attention of the CEO and CFO alike. With an ability to quantify both wasted dollars and improved results, marketing automation technology gives marketers the ammunition they need to address C-level concerns. It also creates access for sales and marketing to obtain budget and initiate change.

 Investment in marketing platforms facilitates the delivery of a new customer-centric message delivery system for the sales team. With all this in place, it's just a matter of time until the sales and marketing gap becomes a thing of the past.

A federal appeals court Tuesday temporarily restored Arkansas' payments to Little Rock schools for desegregation programs, a move that likely allows the funding to continue over the protests of many lawmakers.
In a brief order Tuesday, the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issued a stay of a lower court's ruling. U.S. District Judge Brian Miller last month ordered most of the payments to end.
Arkansas pays about $70 million a year to the Little Rock, North Little Rock and Pulaski County school districts, which serves about 50,000 students, for various programs to advance desegregation. State lawmakers have long derided the payments, and Arkansas Gov. Mike Beebe and other officials have pushed for them to end.
Grant Tennille, a spokesman for Arkansas Gov. Mike Beebe, said the state will comply with the order and continue the desegregation payments to the districts.
"There is a lot of uncertainty out there," Tennille said. "The appeal's going to continue and both the state and the districts have to plan for the day when this funding will end."
The appeals court denied a request for an expedited appeals process. That means lawyers for the state and the schools might not argue the case in court until this fall, said Chris Heller, an attorney for the Little Rock School District.
The court's order came one day after Pulaski County's superintendent and school board were dismissed by Education Commissioner Tom Kimbrell, part of a state takeover after several poor financial reports. North Little Rock also remains classified under "fiscal distress."
Heller said the stay also allows the schools to avoid making severe cuts for teachers and programs.
"That was a nearly impossible task," Heller said. "There's no way to avoid having an impact on students' educations when you have to cut that much money that quickly."
But Bobby Lester, appointed Monday as Pulaski County's interim superintendent, said the court order could give the district time before desegregation payments stop completely.
"I think we need to start working toward that and scaling down," Lester said in an interview Tuesday. "I don't think we can just put off everything as if it's never going to go away, because eventually it's going to go away, in my opinion."
The state had reduced its payments after Miller's ruling, which only kept in place funding for majority to minority transfers allowing students in the three districts to go from a school where the race is the majority to a school where their race is a minority.
Court battles over desegregation in Arkansas date back to 1957, when nine black students, dubbed the Little Rock Nine, famously integrated a city high school over the efforts of then-Gov. Orval Faubus. A 1989 settlement established the payments.
Critics of desegregation spending say the money goes to things besides its stated goal. Miller agreed with that view in his ruling last month.
"It seems that the State of Arkansas is using a carrot and stick approach with these districts but that the districts are wise mules that have learned how to eat the carrot and sit down on the job," Miller wrote. "The time has finally come for all carrots to be put away. These mules must not either pull their proverbial carts on their own or face a very heavy and punitive stick."
The judge temporarily left in place about $21 million a year for majority-to-minority transfers, but ordered all three districts to submit briefs explaining why so-called "M-to-M" funding was still needed.
The Arkansas Department of Education had started to make the smaller payments this week. Now, education officials will wait for word from Attorney General Dustin McDaniel on whether to pay the remaining amount due for June, department spokesman Seth Blomeley said.
"We're going to comply with whatever the court says," he said.
McDaniel spokesman Aaron Sadler said in a statement that the court order showed that the long-running court battle over the payments _ which stem from a 1989 settlement _ is far from over.
McDaniel's office had advised lawmakers eager to spend desegregation money elsewhere to wait on the appeals process.
"This order demonstrates that there are legal issues still to be resolved," Sadler said. We will continue to work with the Department of Education to ensure that the State meets the educational needs of the students of these three districts."
A spokeswoman for the North Little Rock schools did not respond to a request for comment.

Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch has been fined $50,000 by the National Football League (NFL) for violating the league's media policy, the NFL Network reported on Sunday.
Lynch, a four-time Pro Bowl selection, was penalized for declining to speak to the media throughout the regular season, a team source told NFL Media.
The 27-year-old running back finally broke his silence on Friday when he chatted briefly about his 1,257-yard, 12-touchdown campaign that helped the Seahawks earn the top seed in the National Football Conference.
However, Lynch spoke for less than 90 seconds in total as he gave abbreviated replies to every question.
Asked by one reporter how his season had gone, Lynch replied: "Gone pretty well."
Asked how he felt about Seattle's chances in the playoffs, he replied: "I feel good. I like our chances."
The Seahawks, who ended the regular season with a 13-3 record, will host the New Orleans Saints in the divisional playoffs on Saturday.

Towards a single financial services market ? The creation of an integrated European market for retail banking and financial services would stimulate competition and lower the financing costs supported by economic agents. In this respect, the advent of the single currency represents a catalyst for the process of integrating the European financial services market, and the measures set forth in the Financial Services Action Plan (FSAP) are consistent with building a single market. This paper takes stock of the integration of the European financial markets and traces the paths of progress that must be taken to facilitate the global expansion of European players.

Chris Froome remains in charge of the Criterium du Dauphine after a third day which saw the sprinters take centre stage.
Froome was well protected by his Sky team-mates on the 194km route from Ambert to Le Teil and crossed the finish line amid a large pack, with Nikias Arndt taking the stage win.
Arndt had to go to a photo finish to get the nod ahead of Jurgen Roelandts, with the two neck-and-neck over a thrilling last 100 metres.
Froome was given the same time as the pair, preserving his 12-second lead over Alberto Contador at the head of the classification.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 27/11/2012 (1728 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Nice people can be hard to find, but patrons of Garden City Shopping Centre don't have to look too far for a helping hand.
Tony Poredos, a retired flour mill worker, military man and apprentice shoemaker spends a lot of his time at the mall.
On this day he is sitting in a foldable chair at the desk at Stitch City Tailor, guarding the store while the tailor takes a washroom break. Hunched over a pair of black shoes, Poredos, in a light jacket adorned with a single, bright red poppy, looks up at a pair of customers and says,
"She will be back shortly."
Yen Pho, one of the tailors who works at Stitch City, says Poredos walks around the mall, asking sales associates if they need any help.
"Every night at about seven o'clock, Tony walks by here. Whenever the store is very busy, he just stays outside," Pho says. "But when the store is quiet, he asks me, 'Do you need to go to the washroom? Do you need to go somewhere and take a break? I could watch the store for you.' He's a very kind man."
Poredos came to Winnipeg in 1968 from Slovenia with his wife. He has two sons, one in Winnipeg and one in Regina. Back in Europe, he worked at a flour mill for 30 years until it closed down. He then joined the military for three years and became an apprentice shoemaker for three years after that. When he came to Canada, he continued making shoes from scratch.
"When I came here, I worked in a different place," Poredos explains. "I worked with another guy. I worked with him for 18 years making shoes."
Not only do people at the mall ask Poredos to fix their shoes, they even contact him at his home.
"Lots of people come to my house to get their shoes fixed," Poredos says. "It's my hobby."
And it's a hobby for which Poredos refuses any monetary reward.
"They ask me, I do," he states simply.
"When he helps me, sometimes I give him cookies which my niece bakes," Pho says.
Poredos sometimes comes to the mall by car but usually by public transportation.
"I come twice a day," he says. "When I got time, you know. I come for coffee. I have lots of friends here. Kills the time."

Yaiba's Weekly Backhand: OneChanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayers was the ninth blog post in the Yaiba's Weekly Backhand blog hosted on the Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z website. It was originally posted November 27, 2013.
Just look at the title of this thing. Look at it. What a mess. I half expected to see bikini zombies, and my junk got awful confused at the possibilities. (Then again, after coming face to face with some Blister Sisters, I'll take a pass on any and all zombie ladies.) Are these hypothetical bikini zombies the ones doing the slaying? Or are there bikini-clad slayers of zombies? As it turns out, there's just one bikini slayer of zombies: moody, cowboy hat-wearing Aya. Her mediocre sword skills are boosted by some unexplained magic – kind of like how Ryu covers up his lame ass moves with sparkly ninpo.
This flick kicks off long after a global outbreak began, apparently started by the D3 Corporation. What that really means is that the source of the zombie apocalypse is some creepy doctor in a low-rent lab that looks like a porno set. He might not even be a doctor – he just likes to rock a white lab coat. The creep factor is mostly from his one weird eye. Is it a Cyber Eye like mine, or did he just wink at a solar eclipse? No idea, because it's never explained or comes into play.
The action starts with a bulletproof super-zombie that has a cybernetic eye of some sort. Probably some last-gen, knock-off, grey market tech based on the terrible resolution and silly red filter. It's a lump of scrap metal compared to the Cyber-Eye Miss Monday put in me. But, let's get back to the ladies.
There may be only one bikini slayer, but she's soon joined by Reiko, a tough babe in a leather jacket who prefers guns to swords. Reiko shows up in the middle of Aya's hack-and-slash fest, gun a-blazing. She mows down a good chunk of the undead with a seemingly infinite amount of slugs out of a double-barreled sawed-off shotgun she never has to reload. After blowing away the super-zombie (apparently the only one of its kind with no explanation for how or why it's different), she agrees to team up with Aya.
Expert swordswoman Aya, accompanied by some pudgy comic relief guy, is on a vague quest to kill her little sister who's joined up with the evil "doctor". In some incoherently-staged flashback sword fighting, it's revealed that Aya's lil' sis killed their Dad. Conveniently, Reiko wants to kill the doctor and the little sister and even knows how to find them. How Reiko knows the doctor is responsible or where they can find him and the sister is left unexplained – noticing a pattern here? Reiko's own backstory is that she lost her daughter to zombies and is sad.
They wander from one metal junkyard/run-down steel mill to another and the identical ruins look more like Detroit than Japan. Along the way, they run into a couple who bone. The guy demonstrates terrible crossbow skills and even worse peripheral vision, and they die pretty quickly.
Moving on, the pudgy comic relief encounters his zombified little sister. The doctor gave her some not-so-super serum to make her fast enough to whip around a flying guillotine. Surprise, surprise – comic relief has to kill his sister in overwrought slow motion. Meanwhile, Aya's evil little sister shows up to take a hostage: a little girl who's somehow survived on her own in a spotless white dress. Reiko's maternal instincts kick in, but Aya's little sister slashes the girl and disappears in a cloud of smoke.
No one manages to equate "place previously filled with the dead and dying" with "zombie danger", so the group heads to a hospital. It turns out that not only does the little girl have a surprisingly deadly paper-cut on her neck (I've gotten deeper cuts shaving), but she was also bitten by a zombie at one point. More overwrought, slow motion killing before Aya and the comic relief leave Reiko behind. (Wait, wasn't she supposed to take them to the doctor?)
Everyone catches up at a factory where the doctor unleashes a bunch of generic zombies who overpower Reiko. The facility has no locks, it would seem, since fatty comic relief manages to sneak up on the doctor with no problem. The doctor quickly turns the tables on him, unsurprisingly. Luckily for the fat joker, the doctor is attacked by one of the hundreds of zombies wandering around that he never really worried about.
And the movie just doesn't end there. Aya busts more of her magic sword action and has a showdown with her sister. Bad wire fu ensues. Just when it looks like she'll lose, she gets supercharged with magic power and kills her sister. And it's still not over. Her sister also gets magically supercharged and they fight amid even worse CGI. Finally, the little sister is mortally wounded and they have a moment of clumsy reconciliation. She was afraid of being lonely so she decided to get strong… and her solution was murdering her father and alienating her sister? Last minute attempt at Darth Vader-esque redemption? UNEARNED. This movie stinks worse than the puking zombies I have to fight. I need to take a shower after watching something this bad. Hmm, maybe I can get Miss Monday to join me…

Anyone know how to use net send on windows 7 or the equivalent??

In my experiments here, what I found is that you need to run the powershell at an elevated level with a user that is also an admin on the receiving computer. There was also a registry key change I needed to do to get this to work properly. I don't have the key right in front of me though.

My understanding is that this can open up you to some unintentional security holes.
**Before making any changes to the registry make sure to export the key hive you are working on before you make the changes.**

Wow, good post. Anyone have a link to a good powershell tutorial, example, abilities, etc.
Nov 23, 2011 at 10:04 UTC
do "msg /?" in powershell and that should at least give you the syntax for it.
For powershell in general I'd start off with the Scripting Guys at Microsoft.
Nov 23, 2011 at 3:20 UTC
msg.exe doesn't require powershell, it runs from command line, too.
While there is no messenger service in Vista and 7 to send and receive net send messages, XP computers will also accept msg.exe messages. To receive msg.exe message it is required to have remote desktop enabled (msg.exe sends to RDP 3389 port).

High-profile leaks, like that of Edward Snowden, made headlines and struck fear into many companies worried that disgruntled employees could walk off with documents or data that would result in tremendous damage to their brand and reputation if made public. These risks are pervasive across the organization – not just with unhappy employees -- and particular attention needs to be paid to those who have access to the most sensitive information. Often overlooked are the C-suite and board of directors, who may approve corporate data policies but are never trained on them, and who likely have the most unrestricted access to data and access to information that the IT team may not know exists. In this slideshow, Diligent looks at what information is at the greatest risk when an executive or board member leaves.
