Alvin and Brian were determined to bury their throbbing hard-ons into some tight innocent cunt or arse this evening, no matter what. 'I just have to empty my bollocks tonight,' said Alvin He was used to shooting his load every couple of day's minimum. With neither them having had a shag for over a week now, Alvin's bollocks felt they were fit to burst. This was the longest time he had been without a good shag since fleeing Kingston, Jamaica after that unfortunate business with the police officer's 18 year old daughter. That night had been so promising, Her ebony body shining in the moonlight, those tiny perfect tits pointing sky wards, His tongue circling those gorgeous nipples.
Why had that FUCKING Bitch tried to close her tiny arsehole from him the Stupid cow! It would be a long time before she tried that again!. It had been a simple matter to render her resistance futile. Once the rope had restrained her it was easy for his cock to rip open that hot little tunnel. While he managed time to finish the invasion of ramming his cock repeatedly into her tiny arse, and shooting huge gobs of spunk deep into her rectum. He realised her screams would have been heard by others ½ a mile away. Specially once he saw the advancing torch lights from the search parties fanning out into the Jungle. So necessitating his flight across the island then aboard a steamer to the UK.
Alvin and his crime companion Brian, had been wandering the woods now for over 2 hours without seeing a soul. 'We stand no chance here' growled Brian irritably; 'I told you we should have been along that main path, there's no one going to be here, it's much too isolated'. He had no sooner stated this than around a hundred yards or so ahead of them a figure appeared walking towards them and illuminated as it crossed a patch of brilliant moonlight. 'Quick lets have this one' he whispered. 'Get behind these bushes, we can grab them'. Crouching down the two watched as their unsuspecting victim slowly drew nearer. Their excitement mounted as their intended victim got closer, Alvin hoarsely whispered, 'it's a girl' As she got nearer they could see by the bright moonlight, she was very slim around 5 foot 6' with stockinged legs and a ridiculously short black and pleated skirt, fringing her creamy white upper thighs. A white blouse and cascading long blond hair draped across her shoulders completed the sexy vision.
The victim was opposite! Alvin and Brian rushed out of their cover. Brian gripping the girl round the waist, flung her to the ground as she screeched in terror. Alvin sat his 6.6 foot frame on the person's back, pinning her face down, meanwhile Brian had pulled a piece of rope from his backpack and quickly bound the person's wrists together behind her back. Yanking the head backward by her hair. Brian slapped a length of gaffer tape over the mouth, stifling the continuing cries of fear and terror from their victim. Then, dragging the body to its feet, the 2 stumbled with their prisoner through the dense undergrowth.
Finally, bursting through bushes they came to their familiar play area. A small clearing, some 60 feet in diameter surrounded by tightly packed trees and bushes. In its centre, a huge oak tree, which had been laid sideways by a great storm some years previously. The massive waist high tree trunk with its myriad of bare roots and a few thick branches pointing skyward. These formed the perfect altars on which the evil pair were able to secure their sacrificial sex victims.
Shoving the captive across its huge trunk. The victim's handbag fell amongst the undergrowth spilling out its contents of papers and make up.
Brian removed the rope tying the girls wrists together, then the pair dragged her arms viciously out to each side. One wrist was stretched horizontally and firmly strapped to vertical thick root on one side, the other they strapped against a branch on the opposite side. The girl struggled violently, but with her arms immobilised there was little effect. Quickly moving to their victim's rear The two attackers tied lengths of rope round each of their struggling victim's slim ankles. Then with two quick and vicious yanks, each leg was pulled sideways, spreading her limbs wide apart. One they fixed to another of the roots, while her right leg and knee, they roped against a massive branch. With all her limbs now stretched tight, and her arse high in the air, any hope of escape was impossible. Through, in her blind terror she continued to vainly wriggle, but this only succeeded in tightening the rope knots and caused her bum to wave enticingly at waist level, high in the warm night air.
Now lets see what's in this bitches bag' growled Alvin picking up the fallen papers from her handbag to read them by the full moons bright light. 'Well, well' he exclaimed, 'this slut's a boy!
'Snapped Brian 'that don't matter. I don't care. Just one less hole' I know you don't either' he snarled, ' A mouth and arse is all we need' Their victim, who lay with his slim frame stretched tautly across the huge trunk and utterly exposed, struggled violently hearing their intentions. The ropes grazed his wrists and ankles painfully. But the frantic efforts of Chelsie achieved nothing. It was useless. He had been on his way to a 'Rocky Horror' party organised by school friends for his fourteenth birthday. He had dressed his legs in gleaming black stockings which reflected in the bright moonlight also shone off his smooth white thighs, Short pleated skirt, a blouse and pair of his sisters tiny white knickers, while a lacy black suspender belt completed her outfit.
'Oh! Boy this is going to be one fantastic shagging. I just love it when the bitches struggle. The more they resist and thrash around the more interesting things get' he laughed. Their victim renewed the violent struggling, and a mumbling of terror escaped from his blocked mouth. Brian pulled out a knife and with a quick slice, cut off the knickers, then slit the skirt from hem to waist band, also ripped off her blouse, to leave Chelsie completely exposed! Her bodies only covering, a flimsy suspender belt and a pair of stockings. 'Now that looks better' he exclaimed, 'All ready for Use! This maybe a boy, BUT it's one hell of a bitch. Look at those nice tight little bum cheeks. And its a long time since I saw an arsehole that small. I'll bet its as tight as a drum.
You recon its a virgin? I'll bet it is, hairless body, arse cheeks to die for, a tiny cock? This whore can't be much more than 18, or 19.
'She is tall for her age said Alvin reminds me of that pigs kid back in Jamaica. Now that was maybe the best fuck I ever had. Boy did she scream when I introduced her to my hot length.
You told us about that youngster before, complained Brian. Come on lets get cracking with this bitch we have here and now. Warm her pretty little arse up and get the slut to know who owns her. Then we can stretch her hot little holes.
Your right of course Brian, said Alvin and immediately raised one black hand above his shoulder, and brought his huge palm violently down onto Chelsie's arse cheek with a loud crack! A pink hand-print instantly appeared across the skin. A muffled yelp came from behind the gag. Then again and again the hand descended, snap, Snap came the sounds. The speed of sounds doubled.
As Brian joining in, beat the other buttock, bringing his palm down repeatedly till both were gleaming a bright pink, and desperate sobs emanated from the young boy.
Eventually both tormentors were gasping for breath and paused from their exertions. Chelsie's face wet with streams of tears and racking sobs were the only sound now. Alvin unbuttoned and removed his shirt, then unzipping his fly, pulled off the belt and dropped his jeans, stepping out stark naked except for his trainers, his long thick black cock with its purple head pointing before him. Looking like some monstrous truncheon, its head pulsing and showing pearls of clear thick fluid oozing from its little mouth. Brian quickly followed suit; they both stood with their throbbing hard ons and stark naked behind their victim.
Wrapping the buckle end of the leather belts in clenched fists. Brian flailed his across the boys bare arse, leaving a broad red pulsing stripe of pain.
A muffled shriek issued from their victim. Alvin on the opposite side, also raised his arm, and bringing his belt down smartly, produced a new band of stinging pain to mingle with the first. Two, four, six, eight belt stripes rained down on the defenceless bum. On and on the blows continued. Bright red weal's now crisis-crossed Chelsea's arse, her back, in fact her whole body screamed out with pain and felt as if it was on fire, While the tiny arse ring throbbed and pulsed with the pain. Behind the gaffer tape her screams, tears and total terror deluged the victim's mind.
500 yards deeper in the woods Abdul, stirred in his sleep. Sheltering beneath the sheets of rusty corrugated iron with his two companions, What was the sound, which had wakened him? He nudged Terry and Gaz, 'Wake up, somutes appning' he hissed. 'Wats up' grumbled Gaz. 'Listen' said Abdul. Then it came again, a faint but muffled cracking noise; puzzled them both as they strained their ears. Abdul racked his brains at what was a vaguely familiar sound.
Climbing out of their little hovel, the trio brushed the grass and leaves from their raged clothes and hair. Standing, Abdul tried to judge the direction of the noises. But why were these sounds familiar? And why did they make his blood race and his massive Asian cock thicken and expand! Then the luscious memory came flooding back. The hot tight wetness circling his beautiful cock, her lips and tongue tasting him, the creamy white buttocks bouncing and jiggling under his blows, the muffled shrieks of pain as his leather snake whip circled her waist and cracked against her gorgeous arse. That tiny throbbing chocolate starfish of an arse. It had drawn his manhood so very deep within her. OH! FANTASTIC! He almost shouted, 'That vicious pair have got themselves another prize! Oh! Fucking Marvellous' he hissed 'It's our birthday mates' he declared. 'I know what's going on. 3 or 4 months ago it must be now, I heard these self same noises. These fellas, three of them, one a massive nigger built like a brick shit house he was, They had grabbed a right sexy looking white girl I recon she could not have been more than 18 or 19. They had ripped every stich off the slut, she was totally stark naked when I got there. They had her tied up and were beating and using a long leather whip on the whore. I hid behind the bushes and watched them at her.
After an age of this nigger whipping her, this black guy who had the biggest cock I have ever seen, it must have been 10 inches or even more, stopped and lay down on the grass. His massive cock was sticking straight up in the air, he said sumate to the other two, who picked the girl up between them, spread her arse cheeks, positioned her over it, then just dropped her onto that huge pole of his. Jamming that massive weapon straight up into her arse. She let out the most almighty scream. Then one knelt between her legs rammed his into her cunt, while the third squatted over her face and shoved his into her mouth.
Imagine that! There were over 2 foot of rampent throbbing cock slamming into that bitch. Any rate, I stayed watching them, then they tied her up again, and went off in search of some drinks. So as soon as they were well out of sight. I was randy as hell of course by this time, I nipped over lifted the bitch onto her hands and knees. I could see masses of spunk dripping out of her arsehole. I just hung on to her little tities and rammed my whole length straight up her nicely lubed arse. She squealed like a stuck pig again, even though I had stuffed her knickers in the mouth' 'You jammy bastard' both of Abdul's mates gasped. Any one would yell if they had that monster of yours shoved up them! And you think it's the same thing again? COME ON THEN QUICK! lets get over there'. 'Hang on' Abdul ordered 'gently, gently catchee monkey'. 'Ay? What the fuck you on about' snarled Terry. 'Think' replied Abdul, we creep over there good and quiet, suss out the situation first. Then wait for our opportunity'. With any luck, we can all get our ends away too 'Yer well, that makes sense' the pair agreed. Remember, I've watched these bastard at work and if we get nothing else it's a sight not to be missed. said Abdul. In any case I'm the boss here. so you two do as I say and NO argument, agreed? OK' they both signalled, 'Right come on then, and be real real! quiet mind'
Terry asked ' You said they had this girl all tied up, is that right? They did too' Abdul replied. 'You know I would just love to beat a girls arse with that cane I have, could I?' 'If we get the chance, I don't see why not' We may need? to PERSUADE! the slut, laughed Abdul. I'll bring me whip, we can share the work in getting some heat into the slag. Before we all ram the sluts holes.
'Come on' moaned Gaz 'never mind all this chat', lets get over there before I blow mine in me pants' Terry picked up his 4 foot length of thick rattan cane. Abdul grabed the plated leather coils of Mr Snake (as he called his whip) The excited group moved off stealthily towards the woodland sounds.
Back in the clearing Brian rested after his exertions 'OK I recon that will do, at lest for the moment! it must be warm enough by now' laughed Brian. My dick needs those lovely lips tight round it laughed Alvin. Right 'Brian give us yer knife, you get a real tight grip on this fucking whore's head and keep it dead still while I fuck it'. Gripping the end of the gaffer tape, Alvin ripped it off, placed the knife against his victims throat and with a deep snarl ordered, 'Open yer fucking mouth BITCH! Bite it and I'll slit yer fucking throat' Alvin's throbbing penis was shoved against the boys soft lips, It pushed them apart then surged on into the warm wet mouth, Oh! This is so good he mouthed. Pulling the member out he thumped the bell end against the victim's cheeks before plunging the saliva covered steaming cock back, deep into his victims mouth, then deeper, till the prick head thumped into the back of the throat. Oh! Come on mate, keep the whores head STILL, demanded Alvin, The boy's head was desperately being wrenched away from the violating intrusions. Brian's grip tightened and he painfuly twisted the ears keeping the face in position. Now the massive cock was repeatedly rammed into her face. His bollocks thumping against the chin at each injection. The pace of Alvin's fucking increased! Plunging in and out faster and faster till suddenly Chelsie felt the prick starting to swell and jets of spunk spurted into her throat, Once, Twice, Third and Forth time the thick liquid filling her mouth. It oozed out of the corners of her lips. Pinching her nose he shouted 'FUCKING BITCH! Swallow it' the thick salty liquid slid down her gullet. Then easing his shrinking cock from between the lips, Alvin slapped the gaffer tape back into position.
Alvin gasped 'My, that was good he exclaimed. Ok the Bitch is all yours Brian. Thanks mate' he replied 'but I'll wait a bit, I think the slut needs more warming up, Its has cooled! off some by now. I love to see those arses jiggle around' and retrieving his belt, started to lash his victim's buttocks and back, again and again. Alvin watched fascinated as the band of leather struck each cheek, making it jiggle and vibrate under the constant impacts. More and more bright red stripes began appearing across their sacrifice's buttocks. The blows were now raining down thick and fast, the only sound being a steady, whack, Whack, THWACK of leather on skin. A rising and constant moan of pain coming from their victim. As Abdul watched the erotic scene he absent-mindedly slowly started to stroke his cock, which began to grow thicken and stiffen.
Soon drops of thick clear liquid formed on its head. 'I'm going to fuck this bastards hot little tunnel' he snarled. 'Right you pull the bitches arse cheeks apart and I'll get my weapon into the whore. Once I'm well in her, you ram yours into her mouth, then we pull the slag backwards and forwards between us. Oh! A nice idea' laughed Brian' who digging his finger into the arse crack. He dragged the boy's bum cheeks apart exposing the tiny arsehole. Alvin slapped a big dollop of lube on the hole with even more onto his throbbing weapon and putting it's bulbous and pulsing head against the tiny entrance, pushed forward.
The hole slipped open to engulf its violator. The boy gave out a long muffled scream of pain as the huge cock was driven into his rectum He tried desperately to wriggle away, But Alvin dug his fingers into the victims hips and dragged the body slowly onto his pulsating and throbbing weapon, driving it ever deeper into the body, till with a mighty shove his upper thighs banged against its sore and bruised buttocks. Alvin then started a slow and steady in out movement, every now and again pulling his weapon completely out of the hole, only to violently ram it once more back in again to the hilt, causing more squeals of pain at the rapid intrusion. Brian meanwhile had ripped off the gaffer tape and gripping the boy's head by its hair or now and again by the ears, plunged his cock into the wet mouth till it finaly banged against the back of the throat.
The two of them started a rhythmic rocking of the body. First Alvin grasping the hips, with his nails digging into the skin, would ram the arse onto his cock forcing it as deep as he could. Then Brian would pull the body back again, forcing the boys lips along the full length of his prick till they were jammed against it's base, almost choking him.
Backward then Forward, the body was pulled. The 2 cocks ramming piston like, first into the tight little arse then the hot wet mouth.
Behind the plug of Brian's massive cock, their victims soundless screams of pain and horror, ceased only as his nostrils sucked in the life giving air.
To be continued.

Stalemate in government negotiations
Stalemate in government negotiations
23 August 2007
BRUSSELS – At about 4.30 this morning formateur Yves Leterme and the party leaders of the Christian democrat and liberal parties emerged without result after a whole night of negotiations.
CDH (francophone Christian democrats) leader Joëlle Milquet does not want to give the Flemings any guarantees for drastic state reform. This afternoon will be a final attempt to reach accord.
The negotiators are pessimistic however. They describe the situation as an absolute stalemate. The Flemish parties blame Milquet for the deadlock.
The francophone Christian democrats clearly do not want to make any promises for extensive state reform with two-thirds majority. Milquet will at most agree to a vague reference to reform.
Milquet was the odd one out in the discussion on taxes, combating unemployment, justice and immigration as well.
It is doubtful whether Leterme can stay on as formateur if this afternoon's consultation remains deadlocked. Then it may be time to appoint another informateur or a mediator.

Onshore oil and gas exploration and production company Union Jack Oil plc has reached an agreement with Egdon Resources plc to acquire an 8.33 percent economic interest in PEDL182, located in Lincolnshire, UK, which contains the Broughton North Prospect.
Under the terms of the agreement Union Jack will pay Egdon 12.495 percent of the cost of any planned Broughton North well and associated agreed back costs of $90,575 (GBP 64,000). The back costs relate primarily to the acquisition of 3D seismic acquired during 2012 over the Broughton North Prospect and other areas within PEDL182.
Union Jack`s share of funding of the Broughton North well will be paid for by hydrocarbon sales from the Wressle-1 commercial production, which is expected to commence during the fourth quarter of this year. The assignment of the interest in PEDL182 to Union Jack is subject to approval from the Oil and Gas Authority.

Like a lot of people in their 20s, Brooklyn barista Kasey Jones took to Instagram to document her days, to project an image of an alluring, photogenic life that people might "like," or "share," or envy.
But in the aftermath of her death, her photos have gained a troubling dimension.Jones would often climb to the rooftop to drink, then take pictures of herself standing close to the edge, or dangling her feet over the fire escape.
One beauty shot of a glass of wine sitting on a windowsill suggests she had to position her camera—or herself—precariously.
And she did this all while presumably intoxicated.
On Tuesday, Jones lost her footing while attempting to climb down into a friend's apartment. She fell five floors onto the concrete passageway below. The sound of the fatal impact woke a number of her neighbors.
The rooftop offered ample evidence of her having been intoxicated at the time of the fall—bottle after bottle of liquor.
The week before, a friend of Jones' had commented on her Instagram, stating that these photos frightened her.
"It scares the bejesus outta me whenever you post these 'casually leaning over the edge' pics,"
Jones did not heed her concern, noting that she had "a lot of whiskey to help [her] out."
But, as Frances Guerrero, one of Jones' neighbors puts it:
"When you are inebriated you don't use your head."
Two wrenching questions come to mind:
Could Jones' Instagram have been treated as cause for intervention—from her drinking, from her recklessness—and could she have been saved?
And what role does social media play in this? Is this the first time a person has endangered themselves trying to take a likeable, shareable, enviable pic?
"I feel sad. She was so young."
Jones' neighbor, Julio Acosta, commented on the tragedy.
"Yesterday I saw her going out with the bike... She said hi to me. It pains my heart."

(updates with quotes)
By Michael Holden
LONDON, July 31 (Reuters) - Slovenia's Urska Zolnir won her country's first Olympic judo gold on Tuesday and admitted victory had even come as a surprise to herself.
The 30-year-old world number three, who won bronze in Athens in 2004, defeated China's Xu Lili in the final of the women's -63kg category, getting the all important winning score when she threw Xu over her shoulder for a waza-ari.
"I didn't expect the gold medal when I woke up in the morning," she said. "I just hoped it would come together on the day."
She also told reporters she would not defend her title in Brazil in four years.
"You will not meet me in Rio. It's too far, four more years to really work hard," she said.
Slovenia had only won bronze in judo before and Zolnir's gold also represented their fourth in any sport.
Xu's silver was China's first judo medal in London after the Chinese had picked up three gold and a bronze in Beijing.
The quarter-finals had earlier produced major shocks with both of the category's standout judokas, Japan's Yoshie Ueno and France's Gevrise Emane, surprisingly defeated.
World number one Ueno, who trudged off dejected after her loss, bounced back to win bronze, adding to her family's medal collection as her sister Masae was an Olympic judo champion in Athens and Beijing.
"This is my first time at the Olympics and I was nervous," admitted Ueno, a two-time world champion and considered one of the top female judokas in all categories.
Japan were tipped to dominate the lower weight categories in London, but have so far only managed one gold.
"It is still in the lower range (of medals)," Ueno told reporters. "The coach has not said anything in particular about that but we still have tomorrow."
Emane, 30, the world champion, said she had not been at her best in the early stages but also recovered to take the other bronze, defeating Ueno's conqueror Joung Da-woon of South Korea, to win France's fourth bronze medal in judo in three days.

Would you love it more if a guy cooked dinner for you for the first dinner date you have or would you think it'd be more romantic if they took you to a nice restaurant?
- Home cooked date. It shows they put effort a lot of thought and effort into it!Vote A
- Nice restaurant, the food is guaranteed to be good!Vote B
Most Helpful Girl
I think it'd be a good experience for you to cook, it'd be fun for both of you to do together (and you might spill something and have a good laugh, etc) and the end product would be something either really good or simply memorable. Honestly, if this happened to me and a guy cooked our meal, I'd think it was the cutest thing ever and I'd admire the fact that he would step out of the typical date out thing. Even if things don't work out with that, it'd still make a great story, don't you think? :)00|00|0

Air Battle Force
HarperCollins, Mar 29, 2011 - Fiction - 608 pages
In military circles it's known as Air Battle Force—an air combat unit of the future, under the command of aerial warfare expert Major General Patrick McLanahan, capable of launching stealthy, precision-guided firepower to anywhere on the globe within hours. And now McLanahan and his warriors have their first target.
Driven from Afghanistan, the parasitic forces of the deposed Taliban regime have decided to feed on a new host—an isolated, oil-rich Central Asian neighbor that's ripe for the conquering. The battle for control of the world's largest oil deposits has begun, with unsteady alliances forming and opposing forces set to collide. And now a handful of American commandos half a world away, aided by McLan-ahan's unproven robotic warplanes, will have to triumph against overwhelming numbers in a war that nobody—including "friendly" forces at home—wants them to win.

The Fifth Estate
Movie Review
Consider The Fifth Estate's Julian Assange a secular prophet, if you will.
His attention is not on the vastness of God, but on untold gigabytes of information. He speaks not for the divine, but for the documents. Millions of them. Billions. More, perhaps—written and recorded by bureaucrats the world over, sent and read and watched and, finally, hidden. Perhaps forgotten. In these documents is truth, Julian believes: uncomfortable, electric, dangerous truth. In these documents is the power to change the world, to tear down kingdoms and countries and bring about something better, purer, more transparent.
In the beginning—WikiLeaks' beginning—were the words. And the words were Julian's god.
Julian began his devoted service in solitude, according to The Fifth Estate. From the outset, he sought to bring light to the world's darkest places—to force secretive, corrupt organizations and governments to become more transparent and beholden to the people they're supposed to be serving. Soon he cultivated another acolyte in Daniel Berg and drew in a bevy of supporters, admirers and helpers. They considered themselves 21st-century journalists—giving sources and whistle-blowers a safe place to spill whatever info they held. "Even I don't know the identity of our sources," Julian tells Daniel. Anonymity, he believes, is the key to giving these canaries courage. Anonymity, he hopes, will change the world.
And indeed, the world begins to change. Though WikiLeaks is a small organization, its influence begins to grow. It exposes illegalities at a Swiss bank, publishes Scientology's secretive "bibles" and takes on human rights abuses in Kenya. In three years, Daniel brags, WikiLeaks published more scoops than The Washington Post has in 30. And the leaks keep springing.
But as WikiLeaks' influence grows, so do the questions. What if these leaked documents derail diplomatic efforts? Could they needlessly embarrass important (and upright) officials? And what about the people mentioned in these leaks? Could lives be at risk? Could real people be sacrificed on WikiLeaks' altar of free information? Would Julian say that innocent blood is sometimes needed to wash away the world's sin?
Positive Elements
The Fifth Estate is a heady examination of WikiLeaks and its controversial founder, Julian Assange. And while there was and is great debate over whether WikiLeaks has been "good" or "bad" in practice, the core ideal (at least as presented in the movie) is plenty positive: To encourage governments and organizations to open up to the cleansing light of the sun and stop doing so many dark deeds.
"No one can bar the road to truth," Julian quotes Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn as saying. He wants, at least on some level, to make the world a better place, and in his eyes that means making it more transparent.
Early in the film, he and Daniel stand on a cathedral balcony and look down at the Reichstag building in Berlin—an edifice topped by a gigantic glass dome meant to represent the government's (idyllic) transparency to its people. The theory behind the concept of the free press (the so-called Fourth Estate) is that, without prodding, governments and organizations tend to be secretive, and secrecy can twist and corrupt those organizations into something horrible. The press is necessary to keep such entities in check. But with traditional journalism dwindling under economic pressures, Julian sees WikiLeaks as fulfilling the function that the free press is flagging on. And with the advent of the global Internet, he can influence activities in "closed" countries in a way that traditional journalism never could. As if to illustrate his point, a woman lauds Julian and his site, telling him that if WikiLeaks had been around back then, the Berlin Wall would've fallen years earlier.
And even if you have serious doubts about what they're doing, you have to still admire the dedication we see from Julian and Daniel. They are, especially in the beginning, activists who are trying to do what's right—even if it means they're risking their livelihoods … or lives. Indeed, Daniel's fired from his job when his involvement with WikiLeaks becomes known. And both worry that various governments may be spying on them, but they persevere anyway.
Spiritual Content
We're told that Julian grew up in a cult (a detail explicitly refuted by WikiLeaks). And Daniel is warned by his partner, Anke (with whom in real life he shares the hyphenated last name Domscheit-Berg), "If you're going to nail yourself to a cross you should probably know what it's made of."
Sexual Content
Daniel and Anke sleep together after their first date. We see her in his bed the next morning, apparently naked, as implied by her bare shoulders. The two fall into a long-term relationship, though Daniel's devotion to WikiLeaks is a source of friction. "Do you remember the last time we had sex?" Anke asks him. He replies he'll remember the next time they do—and the two begin kissing and engaging in foreplay, clutching, touching and stripping off articles of clothing. (Their intimacy is interrupted when Julian barges in.) Another bed-based tryst is shown later.
Julian Assange has been accused of sexual misconduct by two Swedish women—accusations the film acknowledges near the end. He makes an obscene hand motion at one point.
We briefly see two women kiss at a club.
Violent Content
Two of Julian's whistle-blowers are gunned down in the streets of Kenya—assassinated while sitting in a car. The attack is shocking in its suddenness, and we see blood streaked across the car windows.
Most of the rest of the violence here comes in the form of news footage and images from security cameras. "You don't like ugly pictures, you should stay out of ugly wars," remarks a U.S. government official at one point. Most notable, perhaps, is the so-called "Collateral Murder" video (a title thought up by Julian, according to the film) depicting images from a 2007 American airstrike in Baghdad in which several civilians (including two reporters for Reuters) were killed. The black-and-white footage was taken from the cockpit of American Apache helicopters. "Look at all those dead b‑‑tards," someone's heard saying. We also see film of the 9/11 attacks on the U.S. and other scenes of violence during a montage.
Crude or Profane Language
Seven or eight f-words. Double that for s-words. We hear multiple uses of "a‑‑," "b‑‑tard," "d‑‑n," "h‑‑‑," "p‑‑‑," "pr‑‑k," "w-nker," "b-gger" and "bloody." God's name is misused a half-dozen or more times (half the time with "d‑‑n"), and Jesus' name is abused a handful of times too.
Drug and Alcohol Content
Julian and Daniel do quite a lot of their work while in European nightclubs. They imbibe wine, beer and other drinks. Old friends banter over how much one of them had to drink long ago. It's shown that the cult Julian is connected to as a child relied at least partially on psychiatric drugs to control its members. Daniel and Julian down energy drinks to stay awake.
Other Negative Elements
Here's where some of the comparisons between WikiLeaks' Fifth Estate status and the free press's Fourth Estate status start to break down a bit: When WikiLeaks is given a huge cache of American intelligence, Julian and Daniel arrange to work with The New York Times, London's The Guardian and Berlin's Der Spiegel to get the word out. But while we're told that the mainline papers redact (censor) names, addresses or identifiers that might endanger those mentioned in the documents, WikiLeaks releases the documents without exercising any such restraint.
Julian from the start maintains that WikiLeaks has "hundreds" of volunteers. And when Daniel learns that the staff is at the time, really, just Julian and a bunch of fake email addresses, Daniel's furious about having been tricked into lying to several journalists. Julian casually brushes away his unease, calling the ruse a "necessary fiction."
Daniel and Julian eventually have a falling out, and the aftermath is not pretty. Julian smears Daniel's reputation on WikiLeaks' chatboard, saying he likely has some sort of mental disorder. [Spoiler Warning] Daniel responds by sabotaging the site. We hear also that Julian has a 19-year-old son whom he hasn't seen in a year because (he suggests) WikiLeaks demands so much time of him.
In the wake of WikiLeaks' epic 2010 release of hundreds of thousands of classified U.S. government documents, a lifelong diplomat is fired. Onscreen, she and a co-worker share a last drink before she heads off into the parking lot. She contemplates how much time she's worked as a diplomat—how much schooling, how much training she's undergone, how she weighed every word and measured every phrase for impact. She lost her job because of a stray comment she made on an otherwise insignificant document—a document that, like so many others, was blasted out into open Internet waters by Julian Assange.
"I don't know which one of us history will judge more harshly," she says. And it's actually a pretty good question. Does traditional diplomacy, where words are weighed like gold and half-truths are couched in linguistic niceties, have any place on a planet where every secret is just a mouse click away? Is there a place for nuance in a world full of data dumps?
The Fifth Estate is a dense, ponderous (and sometimes foul) look at Julian Assange and the complex array of secrets he helped leak. Julian and Daniel are presented as complementary conduits to an arguably greater good. Julian is cast as a mad prophet—a visionary whose ambition is to change the world. Daniel is Julian's moral check—reeling Julian back in when the white-haired wunderkind goes too far. They eventually split along those very dividing lines, Julian determined to release a treasure trove of documents unedited (which could threaten many lives) while Daniel wants to edit the docs first.
"These are human beings, Julian!" Daniel tells him. "There are lives at stake!"
Julian is ultimately unmoved. He believes that governments and corporations need a forceful check on their power, and in the absence of a robust traditional free press, he believes the task falls to him.
But who, then, is left to check WikiLeaks? Who checks Julian?
This is the central conundrum The Fifth Estate poses. Newspapers have had hundreds of years to develop their own code of ethics to help ensure at least a semblance of responsibility. Not so the burgeoning Internet, fronted for the moment by Assange's WikiLeaks. It has no real gatekeepers, no code of conduct to follow. Is that good? The film suggests not. We all need checks, it says.
So it somehow feels fitting in a curiously circular way that WikiLeaks, long before The Fifth Estate arrived in theaters, obtained and, of course, leaked a script for the project before posting this tweet: "As WikiLeaks was never consulted about the upcoming Hollywood film on us, we've given our advice for free: It's bad".

He may have a new love in his life, but Paul McCartney's video for his new song "My Valentine" is a love letter to the old standards.
"I've always loved these songs since I was a kid, it's what I grew up listening to. My dad was a pianist at the big New Years Eve do's - [it] was a big sing-along, a big family sing along. They'd roll back the carpets everyone would sing for the whole evening and they'd sing all these songs - what we call now the 'American songbook.'"
McCartney's latest album is a collection of those classics he's loved since childhood.
"I never realized why I loved them, I just knew I did. There was this nostalgic thing because of my family but, as I became a writer myself and started to construct songs, I would hear those songs and think 'Wow I love the way they put that verse there, love the way that rhymes with that, that's clever', and now I can appreciate what they were doing."
Complete Coverage: 54th Annual Grammy AwardsAdele sings a cappella for Anderson Cooper
Jason Aldean's surprising day job before music
Though it's been 55 years since Sir Paul penned his first song, he's just now realizing how much inspiration those haunting ballads delivered.
"I realized it kind of influenced me and the stuff that the Beatles' wrote, which in the 60's we were influenced by rock-n-roll. There was still this little back thing - these older songs. So I think what we ended up doing was mixing the rock-n-roll influence with this old influence from our youth."
McCartney's new album title, "Kisses on the Bottom," is a tribute to a Fats Waller song. But selling standards isn't easy, even when you're an icon. To market his new music, McCartney took an innovative approach and became spokesperson for JBL, a sound company.
Paul McCartney the last Beatle to get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame

"You get an opportunity to do this in this way, it's the kinda thing you jump at. And JBL ... offered to do this mini-film, which would introduce the album to people," he said.
Surprisingly, McCartney, who will turn 70 this year, got his just first star on the Hollywood walk of fame Thursday - the last of the Fab Four to get the honor. But he was quick to share the credit with his fellow Beatles.
"I couldn't have done it without three boys, so I want to say thanks to those guys: John, George and Ringo."
McCartney's weekend is just getting started. He'll be honored Friday night by a who's who in the music business, this time for his charity work. And he'll be performing Sunday at the Grammy Awards.
Watch the 54th annual Grammy Awards live on CBS, Sunday, Feb. 12 at 8 p.m. ET.

different payment options on the same form.Asked by loudounfreedom on July 21, 2016 at 04:55 PM
i am working on creating forms (or importing) but i came across an issue right off the bat. I have a paypal integrated form. It has options for users to pay fees by checking a box that is the specific fee amount for a category. But the page also has a blank amount field that a person can put in any amount. I can't see to have both on the page.
IF I understand you correctly, you would like to create a form with multiple payment options. Directly this is not possible we only allow you to add a single payment option per form.
There is a work around to this. If you view our guide, it will indicate how you can add multiple payment fields in a single form.

Hi. I am Lydia, happy owner of Eerie Silence. Here's a little about me.
I absolutely love God, life, music, food and the camera, but really the people that are involved in my life. This is my personal photo journal in which I want you to feel. With entries that are heart felt. The ones that draw more than just my memory back at a moment. My goal is to create an environment where this is possible.
For me there is something fulfilling about taking photographs and falling completely in love with it and the memories it creates. With that being said, photography is crazy important to me, and if for you too, then we're totally going to be a great fit!

I know I haven't properly introduced the newest member of our little family, as I did with our eldest but this little cutie has made me feel a lot more reserved about her arrival. I can't explain it but I guess with each pregnancy comes different feelings and when I tell you Skyler made me reserved I truly mean it. Unlike with my first pregnancy, I didn't take belly photos, or have posted a lot of Skyler yet. I could feel a bit down by it but it was a feeling that couldn't be fought. This is my once in a blue moon post by the way. I guess I can say a bit about this pregnancy and my light, Skyler...
Skyler was born on February 3rd, 2017 at 2:33am. This pregnancy was nothing like my first. I'll be completely honest about it. First, I got the worst morning sickness ever! And it wasn't only morning. I would feel sick for most of the day. I hated to cook. I mean all from breakfast, dinner, snacks? EVERYTHING! I would feel like throwing my insides out. It lasted a few months. Secondly, I had so many freaking cravings that lasted the whole nine months! Third, my belly grew immensely! It was crazy to look at it and believe it was a real thing. Oh and lastly about being pregnant at least, I felt unmotivated often due to the exhaustion! I was dead all the time. During labor again, my partner was a big 13 lbs when he was born, (yeah his mom says he almost killed her!) making me have huge babies, so... Skyler was a big 9 lbs and 8oz! When she was born the doctors and nurses couldn't believe how big of a baby a petite woman had! After she was born I kept hearing about it. "You had such a huge baby! But you're so petite!" Anyway, baby Skye and I were both healthy and I had a super healthy pregnancy just like my first one :) That's something I am always proud of. No complications.
Today my big baby girl is 2 months already and it was tough because she would cry a lot at first but now she sleeps better and so does everyone! She was smiling from just days of being born! Like actually smiling at us wide awake. She would, and still does, speaks back when you talk to her. She doesn't do it alone, she baby talks right back to you when she sees you are trying to communicate with her. She has this cute little word she overuses when she baby talks that sounds exactly like she's saying 'rice' in Spanish so that's like "her thing". Raiden absolutely loves her little sister and she's so overprotective of her. Comforting her when she cries, and saying "hi!" to her first thing in the morning when she comes over upon waking up. I guess I worried so much for nothing. They will be amazing sisters I know it. I will make sure to teach them that. My partner is so in love with them and of course so am I. What else can I say? If I felt complete before I feel even better now. I am so thankful with God for allowing me, for gifting me this privilege of being a mom once again and for protecting me all the way through any and all complications. Without Him we are nothing.
Here are some photos I took of my Skye today in celebration of two awesome months! I still have archived some of when she was first home from the hospital. I am not sure if I'll ever post those, also not sure when my next update will be so enjoy! xx

Hi guys, here's to hoping you all had a magical Christmas next to those who truly matter the most. I for sure did aside of mine even though this second pregnancy in its last month is taking all of me. On Christmas eve my little growing family enjoyed a day out. We had breakfast at ihop and it was delicious. Something I always love is that Raiden being so well behaved she always eats all her food. Never has been one to play with it. Afterwards we went out to get her and her baby sibling some clothes since we saw some of our favorite babies/kids stores right near by. They both got some cute and much needed items.With a few more doings we called it a day.
The next day being Christmas we all woke up, and after having Raiden life is just so much happier so we are all in that happy mood no matter what day it is. It helped to have my partner home for so many days. He makes the best breakfast and coffee :) Naturally we had delicious breakfast, watch Raiden's shows and anime. Also as a routine we teach Raiden vowel letters, in Spanish that we have handwritten on cards with different marker colors. We also teach her to count in English and Spanish and she is doing really good. Not only saying it because she's mine but because we put so much time and dedication into her every day learning experiences and they pay off! She's known for months now where and what are her eyes, nose, ears mouth and as a bonus, we are her teeth and tongue. Speaking of she loves to brush her teeth every day looking forward to it back since she only had 4 cute little ones. I wanted to write these things of because I am so proud of our little household and we are so much more than what we decide to share. I want to read back on this and remember all we do and did for our growing girl. We will definitely put the same effort into teaching out littlest one the same and everything we have learned from mistakes.
Oh, also Raiden loves books, and pretends to read them after learning from mommy and daddy as we read them to her. That is something major to me because while I didn't grow up reading or owning actual books growing up, and received my Kinder Paperwhite from my mom years ago, I discovered that amazing magic that's behind reading books after books although digital only. But hey, it's about to be 2017 and that's how things flow nowadays. I love the fact that I can carry over 30 books into one little device and switch between them where I please. Although right now she loves physical copies of books, since she was only a few months old. whatever she decides in the future I will support her most of all motivating her to continue on reading and expanding that amazing mind of hers!
Ever since learning her vowel letters, at only one year old she can point some of them out of receipts and pieces of paper, repeating them constantly. At such an early age, she can say so many words already that we have taught her and many others that she has learned on her own. My favorite thing now is when we are laying down face to face and her cute little fingers point to my eyes and she says "oju, oh ju" implying "eyes" in Spanish, then moves to pointing to my nose and saying "aris, aris" as in "nariz" in Spanish which means nose.
She's an extraordinary toddler and we have definitely not missed the opportunity of teaching her while her absorbing brain is in such an early stage. Which brings me to my next point, for Christmas it was decided to get her a kids tablet, aside from a very cute and girly playing tent. A lot of parents and people that have no absolute idea what is like to be a parent like to point fingers at tablet buyers. I honestly don't care if I am being indirectly or directly criticized because as stated above my daughter has two very responsible and attentive parents right by her side teaching her things from the moment she was born. Now I do not agree people shoving their judgmental believes down others throats. Raiden used to use my iPad when she was very little for the sole purpose of having her very few favorite shows on the go anywhere she wanted. She has a very distinct taste and doesn't truly watch cartoons but rather chooses to watch learning shows with human beings. What a blessing huh? She has learned so much with those shows and I approve of it. My tablet is now super old and it was decided by my partner and I that she could have her own and such age just so she can expand her mind watching even more shows. We got her a tablet that can offer her that and so much more as she grows. She will always have mommy and daddy's learning time and she will always have her books, and alternative learning ways because we strongly believe in teaching her.
For now, she'll only use that tablet to watch her very few favorite shows, she has never been one to watch for many hours. She get tired of whatever she's watching easily moving on to physical activities or simply being calm around mom and dad. But once she's older she will have a freewill to use her devices as desired and knowing her she will know that it will always be there allowing her to put it down whenever and picking it back up when needed.
I don't know what I do to deserve such a bright and mature kid, she's still has her little baby things of course, but I am honestly beyond words proud of my baby girl. She's done and does so much right and although there will always be challenging moments, she has in fact made motherhood easier on me.
Side note; I was never attacked by anyone judgemental personally but there was a need for me to write this. Remember there's always more than what you see on the surface. 2017 is just a few days away and we must move on and get with the times. If you aren't a parent yet, do not judge or criticize those who are and know their kid and their personality. And if you prefer things an certain old fashion way then good for you. Have a good one and thanks for reading :)

I don't blog regularly but that's something you already know. My little family and I have been enjoying our days so much that I have been away from most social sites. Truth is we are doing great and that's the most important thing. I rarely photograph anymore and today after coming home from a flea market Raiden went to take a super long nap, after she woke up I took these photos because she always looks so cute after her naps. She's always cute though.
Thanks to the friends I've made online who have worried about me and my family. We are doing just fine and I will be returning to Instagram soon. I wish you all a very good one :)

I am and I've been rather busy trying to put together Raiden's 1st birthday which is today but she will have a party for it on Saturday. Today I will be baking her smash cake in the hopes to get some cute photos and sing to her later on tonight.
Anyway but I wanted to have some me time in between all of this! So I took some photos yesterday of this lovely mail package I received from a lovely girl named Eva whom I had the pleasure to meet on Instagram. I first came across her Instagram back when Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer released. Her photo was top on the tags. I quickly fell in love with her profile. She quickly followed we exchanged a few praising over each other's Instagram profiles. Some time later added each other on Miitomo and honestly she's the only person of my friend's who still uses it and keeps things so interesting. Thanks to Miitomo I got to see her personality and know some details about her. That's always good.
This is funny so I will ad more to the story. On Miitomo I've learned a couple of things thanks to Eva. Like how whenever you get the hiccups one should try to lay flat and tilt your head a little bit upwards like you would in a CPR situation, and just breathe thoroughly. Also about how much better organic milk tastes and eventually I found a bit of curiosty in tea which is how we got to this package she sent me. I told her I've never had tea and that I had no idea what good tea should taste like. She assured me she would be mailing me some if I wanted. Of course, things like this make me extremely shy but I think it is rude to say no to someone offer. A few days later I received this amazing package from her expecting only tea. So when I opened the first thing that I saw was this cute little Yotsuba box.
A very special thanks to Eva for doing such an incredible thing for me. I suck at mailing things and even attempting to make packages but I will be thinking on a way to return the favor in the hopes to make her at least half as happy as she's made me. Thanks for reading! I am off to bake a layered bake for my daughter now!
P.S. I am still finding a way to edit photos. Now that I own a laptop the colors are slightly different here so they look different than my older way to process photographs. I hope they're still likable.

Chicken Noodle & Dumpling Soup
READY IN: 1hr 29mins
Recipe by CJAY8248
This yummy stick to your ribs soup is sure to please even the pickiest eaters in your family.
Top Review by mama smurf
This was very good...we really enjoyed the flavor of the soup and like Mikekey I would not have thought to add parsnips but I did enjoy them. DH and I also thought that dumpling and noodles were a little too much together (need just one) but we did enjoy the soup and would make it again with just dumplings or noodles. Good luck! Made for RSC.

In case you missed it, former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr. was on Charlie Rose Friday night (thanks to my kids for keeping me up late enough that I caught it).
Not too surprisingly, the Ambassador to China mainly talked about China. The takeaway is that, according to Huntsman, China's Communist Party is trying to keep control of a country going through monumental economic and demographic changes, and that perspective offers a starting point to explain much of how the government acts and reacts to events.

excerpt fails to load on first page load?
Hi there, I am using the WordPress nrelate content plugin and right at the bottom of each post where it says "You may also like" I have 3 posts set to show here and loads great except for the excerpt which I have activated. If I refresh the page the excerpt does indeed load however whenever you load a blog post for the first time the excerpt fails to load. It works fine in the fly over. I am using the huffington post style for these as you can see here: http://www.smallbusinesscan.com/first-online-skill-hub-goes-live/
Any ideas as to why it fails to load the first time. I am using firefox on a mac if its any use.

Pawan to Jagan: "Why didn't You counter KCR when he kept on insulting Seemandhra People?", "Haven't you born in Seemandhra?", "Don't you have the guts to attack KCR?", "A person who can't safeguard the self respect of Seemandhra can't be its Chief Minister", "You will bring encroachment and bomb culture to Godavari districts if voted to power", "Those who attack Me will be crushed under my feet" and last bust not least "YSR Congress hatao…Seemandhra bachao".
In fact, None of the seasoned politicians have dared to launch such blistering attack on YS Jagan until now. Even in such situation, the YSRC chief preferred to remain silent when it comes to giving a counter to Powerstar. Instead, He is directing Sharmila, Mysoora Reddy, Director Kodandarami Reddy and Producer Natti Kumar to take on the actor-turned-politician. What for this so called strategy? Does Jagan wants to send the message that Pawan Kalyan don't have the stature to criticize him?
Sources say, Jagan fears attacking Pawan directly would distance an influential community and his fan base (irrespective of caste, creed and religion) from YSR Congress permanently.
Meanwhile, Pawan's power-packed speeches have been like a death blow to YSRC and at the same time improved the prospects of TDP-BJP alliance in Seemandhra.

Pirated KP-2 SC
I picked up this KP2 SC awhile ago thinking that I would do something with it. Well, I have rough sanded the stock and removed some paint the last owner used on it. Since then, it has just sat.
When I got it, it didn't fire. I replaced the seals and the main spring and now it works great. I have shot about 12 balls in the back yard and all seems good.
As you can see in the pics, this gun has some cosmetic issues. There are some small dents on the feed tube that do not affect ball feeding. The slot for the lug is a little dug up with tool marks. The barrel crown isn't smooth.
It does come with a fast changer.

Your Itinerary:
Day 1: Sevilla. Arrival in Seville, the heat of Andalucia. Evening meal with tour guide. Overnight in Sevilla. Includes: (D).
Day 2: Sevilla - Jabugo - Aracena – Sevilla
Breakfast. Today we take you to the Sierra of Aracena in the province of Huelva, a mountainous area north-west of Seville near to the Portuguese border. It is here that the finest hams in the world are made from the Iberian pig. These hams are cured in the mountain air for up to 3 years and are considered by many people to be the jewel in the crown of Spanish gastronomy. This area is situated about 90 kilometers (56 miles) from Seville.
We will first visit a farm to see how the pigs are reared and then go on to see the installations of one of the best ham producers in the village of Jabugo, a mythical name in Spain for fine ham. An expert will show us around, explaining the processes involved in the production of ham and of other products which come from the Iberian pig. At the end of the visit you will be able to taste the wonderful ham along with a glass of the best fino.
Afterwards, we will go on to the town of Aracena where we will have a gourmet lunch at the finest restaurant in the area. We will sample the finest local produce including fresh cheese, ham, mushrooms, pork from the Iberian pig, wild asparagus, artichokes etc. Many of the dishes will vary according to the season. The meal will be accompanied by fine Spanish red wine and end with typical desserts. On arrival back in Seville you will be free until the evening when there is an olive oil tasting followed by a tapas tour of some of Sevilla's best bars. Overnight in Sevilla. Includes: (B), (L), (D).
Day 3: Sevilla - Sanlúcar De Barrameda – Sevilla
Breakfast. Today's excursion takes you to Sanlúcar de Barrameda, the second most important sherry town, unknown to the majority of foreign visitors. It is a similar distance from Seville as Jerez and is a beautiful place at the mouth of the Guadalquivir estuary. It looks across to the Doñana National Park and out on to the Atlantic Ocean Among the many styles of sherry wine produced here manzanilla stands out as a style of sherry made in a similar way to fino but lighter with a salty hint to it. The town is also known for very fine seafood; it is one of the best places for this in Spain.
Prior to reaching the town we will be stopping to visit the vineyards of one of the bodegas (wineries). An expert will explain all the factors affecting grape production and quality, and will show us around the vines and vineyard installations. These installations are nearly always perched on top of a hill and afford panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Following this we will proceed to the bodega where we will be taken around what are spectacular buildings with their rows and rows of sherry butts stacked one on top of the other. These buildings are often compared to cathedrals and it is certainly true that they give the impression of being sanctified places.
After a detailed tour including a complete explanation of the sherry-making process, there will be a tutored tasting of the different styles of wine which includes high end wines not normally tasted. The tasting will be carried out by an expert. After the bodega visit we will go to one of the fantastic seafood restaurant along the bank of the estuary where we will indulge in langoustines, shellfish, fine fried fish, sea food and rice stews etc., all washed down with the finest manzanilla. On our return to Sevilla you will be free to explore the city. Overnight in Sevilla. Includes: (B), (L).
Day 4: Sevilla. Breakfast. Farewell with transportation arranged to airport, bus or train station. Includes: (B).
